When
he was come down
from the mountain,
great multitudes
followed him.
And,
behold,
there came a leper
and worshipped him,
saying,
Lord,
if thou wilt,
thou canst
make me clean.
And Jesus put forth
his hand,
and touched him,
saying,
I will;
be thou clean.
And immediately
his leprosy
was cleansed.
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.
And
when Jesus
was entered
into Capernaum,
there came
unto him a centurion,
beseeching him,
And saying,
Lord,
my servant
lieth at home sick
of the palsy,
grievously tormented.
And Jesus
saith unto him,
I will come
and heal him.
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.
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.
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.
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.
But the children
of the kingdom
shall be cast out
into outer darkness:
there shall be weeping
and gnashing
of teeth.
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.
And
when Jesus
was come
into Peter's house,
he saw
his wife's mother laid,
and sick
of a fever.
And
he touched
her hand,
and the fever
left her:
and she arose,
and
ministered unto them.
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:
That it
might be fulfilled
which was spoken
by Esaias
the prophet,
saying,
Himself took our infirmities,
and bare
our sicknesses.
And
when
he was entered
into a ship,
his disciples
followed him.
And,
behold,
there arose
a great tempest
in the sea,
insomuch
that the ship
was covered
with the waves:
but
he was asleep.
And his disciples
came
to him,
and awoke him,
saying,
Lord,
save us:
we perish.
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.
But the men marvelled,
saying,
What manner
of man
is this,
that even
the winds
and the sea
obey him!
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.
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?
And there was
a good way off
from them an herd
of many swine feeding.
So the devils
besought him,
saying,
If thou
cast us out,
suffer us
to go away
into the herd
of swine.
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.
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.
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.
And he
entered
into a ship,
and passed over,
and came
into his own city.
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.
And,
behold,
certain
of the scribes
said within themselves,
This man blasphemeth.
And Jesus
knowing
their thoughts said,
Wherefore
think
ye evil
in your hearts?
For whether
is easier,
to say,
Thy sins
be forgiven thee;
or to say,
Arise,
and walk?
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.
And he arose,
and departed
to his house.
But
when the multitudes
saw it,
they marvelled,
and glorified God,
which had given such power
unto men.
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.
And Jesus arose,
and followed him,
and so
did his disciples.
And,
behold,
a woman,
which was diseased
with an issue
of blood twelve years,
came behind him,
and touched
the hem
of his garment:
For she said
within herself,
If I
may
but touch
his garment,
I shall be whole.
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.
And
when Jesus
came
into the ruler's house,
and saw
the minstrels
and the people
making
a noise,
He said unto them,
Give place:
for the maid
is not dead,
but sleepeth.
And
they laughed him
to scorn.
But
when the people
were put forth,
he went in,
and took her
by the hand,
and the maid arose.
And the fame
hereof went abroad
into all
that land.
And
when Jesus
departed thence,
two blind men
followed him,
crying,
and saying,
Thou son
of David,
have mercy on us.
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.
Then touched
he their eyes,
saying,
According to your faith
be it
unto you.
And their eyes
were opened;
and Jesus
straitly charged them,
saying,
See that no man
know it.
But they,
when
they were departed,
spread abroad his fame
in all that country.
As they went out,
behold,
they brought
to him
a dumb man
possessed
with a devil.
And
when the devil
was cast out,
the dumb spake:
and the multitudes marvelled,
saying,
It was never so seen
in Israel.
And
when
he was departed
thence,
he went into 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
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?
How much
then is a man
better
than a sheep?
Wherefore
it is lawful
to do well
on the sabbath days.
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 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.
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.
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:
And
if Satan cast
out Satan,
he is divided
against himself;
how shall
then 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.
But
if I cast
out devils
by the Spirit
of God,
then
the kingdom
of God
is come
unto 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.
He that is not
with me is against me;
and he
that gathereth not
with me
scattereth abroad.
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.
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.
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.
O generation
of vipers,
how can ye,
being evil,
speak good things?
for out of the abundance
of the heart
the mouth speaketh.
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.
But
I say unto you,
That every idle
word that men
shall speak,
they shall give account
thereof in the day
of judgment.
For by thy
words
thou shalt be justified,
and by thy
words
thou shalt be condemned.
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.
But Jesus
said unto them,
They
need
not depart;
give
ye them
to eat.
And
they
say unto him,
We have here
but five loaves,
and two fishes.
He said,
Bring
them hither to me.
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.
And
they did all eat,
and were filled:
and
they took up
of the fragments
that remained twelve baskets full.
And they
that had eaten
were about five thousand men,
beside women
and children.
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.
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.
But the ship
was now in the midst
of the sea,
tossed with waves:
for the wind
was contrary.
And
in the fourth watch
of the night Jesus
went unto them,
walking
on the sea.
And
when the disciples
saw him
walking
on the sea,
they were troubled,
saying,
It is a spirit;
and
they cried out for fear.
But straightway
Jesus
spake unto them,
saying,
Be of good cheer;
it is I;
be not afraid.
And Peter
answered him
and said,
Lord,
if it
be thou,
bid me
come unto thee
on the water.
And he said,
Come.
And
when Peter
was come down
out of the ship,
he walked
on the water,
to go
to Jesus.
But
when he
saw
the wind boisterous,
he was afraid;
and beginning
to sink,
he cried,
saying,
Lord,
save me.
And immediately
Jesus
stretched
forth his hand,
and caught him,
and
said unto him,
O thou
of little faith,
wherefore didst
thou doubt?
And
when
they were come
into the ship,
the wind ceased.
Then they
that
were in the ship
came
and worshipped him,
saying,
Of a truth
thou art
the Son
of God.
Then Jesus
went thence,
and departed
into the coasts
of Tyre and Sidon.
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.
But
he answered her
not a word.
And his disciples
came
and besought him,
saying,
Send her away;
for she
crieth
after us.
But he
answered
and said,
I am not sent
but unto the lost sheep
of the house
of Israel.
Then came
she
and worshipped him,
saying,
Lord,
help me.
But he
answered
and said,
It is not
meet to take
the children's bread,
and to cast it
to dogs.
And she said,
Truth, Lord:
yet the dogs
eat
of the crumbs which fall
from their masters' table.
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.
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.
And his disciples
say unto him,
Whence
should
we have so much bread
in the wilderness,
as to fill so great
a multitude?
And Jesus
saith unto them,
How many loaves
have ye?
And they said,
Seven,
and a few little fishes.
And he
commanded
the multitude to
sit down
on the ground.
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.
And
they did all eat,
and were filled:
and
they took up
of the broken meat
that was left seven baskets full.
And they
that did eat
were four thousand men,
beside women
and children.
And
he sent away
the multitude,
and took ship,
and came
into the coasts
of Magdala.
And
when
they were come
to the multitude,
there came
to him
a certain man,
kneeling down
to him,
and saying,
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.
And
I brought him
to thy disciples,
and
they could not cure him.
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.
And Jesus
rebuked the devil;
and
he departed out of him:
and the child
was cured
from that very hour.
Then came
the disciples
to Jesus apart,
and said,
Why could not
we cast him out?
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.
Howbeit this kind
goeth not
out but by prayer
and fasting.
And
when
they were come
to Capernaum,
they that
received
tribute money
came
to Peter,
and said,
Doth
not your master pay tribute?
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?
Peter
saith unto him,
Of strangers.
Jesus
saith unto him,
Then
are
the children free.
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.
And as they
departed
from Jericho,
a great multitude
followed him.
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.
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.
And Jesus
stood still,
and called them,
and said,
What
will
ye that
I shall do
unto you?
They say unto him,
Lord,
that our eyes
may be opened.
So Jesus
had compassion
on them,
and touched
their eyes:
and immediately
their eyes
received sight,
and
they followed him.
And he
left them,
and went out of the city
into Bethany;
and
he lodged there.
Now in the morning
as he returned
into the city,
he hungered.
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.
And
when the disciples
saw it,
they marvelled,
saying,
How soon is
the fig tree
withered away!
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.
And all things,
whatsoever
ye shall ask
in prayer,
believing,
ye shall receive.
And there was
in their synagogue a man
with an unclean spirit;
and
he cried out,
Saying,
Let us alone;
what have
we to do
with thee,
thou Jesus
of Nazareth?
art
thou come
to destroy us?
I know thee
who thou art,
the Holy One
of God.
And Jesus
rebuked him,
saying,
Hold thy peace,
and
come out of him.
And
when the unclean spirit
had torn him,
and cried
with a loud voice,
he came out of him.
And forthwith,
when
they were come
out of the synagogue,
they entered
into the house
of Simon
and Andrew,
with James and John.
But Simon's wife's mother lay sick
of a fever,
and anon
they tell him
of her.
And
he came
and took her
by the hand,
and lifted
her up;
and immediately
the fever
left her,
and
she
ministered unto them.
And there came
a leper
to him,
beseeching him,
and kneeling down
to him,
and
saying unto him,
If thou wilt,
thou canst
make me clean.
And Jesus,
moved
with compassion,
put forth his hand,
and touched him,
and
saith unto him,
I will;
be thou clean.
And
as soon as he
had spoken,
immediately
the leprosy
departed from him,
and
he was cleansed.
And
he straitly charged him,
and forthwith sent him away;
And
saith unto him,
See
thou say nothing
to any man:
but go thy way,
shew thyself
to the priest,
and offer for thy
cleansing
those things which Moses commanded,
for a testimony
unto them.
But he went out,
and began to publish it much,
and to blaze abroad
the matter,
insomuch
that Jesus
could
no more openly enter
into the city,
but was without
in desert places:
and they
came
to him
from every quarter.
And again
he entered
into Capernaum
after some days;
and it
was noised
that he
was in the house.
And straightway many
were gathered together,
insomuch that
there was
no room
to receive them,
no,
not
so much as about the door:
and he
preached
the word
unto them.
And
they
come unto him,
bringing one sick
of the palsy,
which was borne
of four.
And
when
they could not come nigh
unto him
for the press,
they uncovered
the roof
where he was:
and
when
they had broken it up,
they let down
the bed
wherein
the sick
of the palsy lay.
When Jesus
saw their faith,
he said
unto the sick
of the palsy,
Son,
thy sins
be forgiven thee.
But there was certain
of the scribes
sitting there,
and reasoning
in their hearts,
Why doth this man thus
speak blasphemies?
who can forgive
sins
but God only?
And immediately
when Jesus
perceived
in his spirit
that they so
reasoned
within themselves,
he said unto them,
Why reason
ye these things
in your hearts?
Whether is it easier
to say
to the sick
of the palsy,
Thy sins
be forgiven thee;
or to say,
Arise,
and take up
thy bed,
and walk?
But that
ye may know that
the Son
of man
hath
power
on earth
to forgive sins,
(he saith to the sick
of the palsy,)
I say unto thee,
Arise,
and take up
thy bed,
and go thy way
into thine house.
And immediately
he arose,
took up the bed,
and went forth
before them all;
insomuch
that
they were all amazed,
and glorified God,
saying,
We never saw it
on this fashion.
And
he entered again
into the synagogue;
and there was a man
there which
had a withered hand.
And
they watched him,
whether he
would heal him
on the sabbath day;
that they
might accuse him.
And
he saith unto the man
which had
the withered hand,
Stand forth.
And
he saith unto them,
Is it lawful
to do good
on the sabbath days,
or to do evil?
to save life,
or to kill?
But
they held
their peace.
And
when
he had looked round
about on them with anger,
being grieved
for the hardness
of their hearts,
he saith unto the man,
Stretch forth thine hand.
And
he stretched it out:
and his hand
was restored whole
as the other.
And unclean spirits,
when
they saw him,
fell down
before him,
and cried,
saying,
Thou art the Son
of God.
And the same day,
when the even was come,
he saith unto them,
Let us
pass over
unto the other side.
And
when
they had sent away
the multitude,
they took him
even as
he was in the ship.
And there were also
with him other little ships.
And there arose
a great storm
of wind,
and the waves
beat
into the ship,
so that
it was now full.
And
he was in the hinder part
of the ship,
asleep
on a pillow:
and
they awake him,
and say unto him,
Master,
carest
thou
not
that we perish?
And he arose,
and rebuked
the wind,
and said
unto the sea,
Peace,
be still.
And the wind ceased,
and there was
a great calm.
And
he said unto them,
Why are
ye so fearful?
how is it that
ye have no faith?
And
they feared exceedingly,
and said one
to another,
What manner
of man
is this,
that even
the wind
and the sea
obey him?
And
they came over
unto the other side
of the sea,
into the country
of the Gadarenes.
And
when he
was come
out of the ship,
immediately there met him
out of the tombs a man
with an unclean spirit,
Who had his dwelling
among the tombs;
and no man
could bind him,
no,
not with chains:
Because
that
he had been often bound
with fetters
and chains,
and the chains
had been plucked asunder by him,
and the fetters broken in pieces:
neither could
any man
tame him.
And always,
night and day,
he was in the mountains,
and in the tombs,
crying,
and cutting himself
with stones.
But
when he
saw Jesus
afar off,
he ran
and worshipped him,
And cried
with a loud voice,
and said,
What
have
I to do
with thee,
Jesus,
thou Son
of the most high God?
I adjure thee
by God,
that thou
torment me not.
For he said unto him,
Come out of the man,
thou unclean spirit.
And he
asked him,
What
is thy name?
And he answered,
saying,
My name
is Legion:
for we
are many.
And
he besought him
much
that he
would not send them away
out of the country.
Now there was there nigh
unto the mountains
a great herd
of swine feeding.
And all
the devils
besought him,
saying,
Send us
into the swine,
that we
may enter into them.
And forthwith Jesus
gave them leave.
And the unclean spirits went out,
and entered
into the swine:
and the herd
ran violently down a steep place
into the sea,
(they were about two thousand;)
and were choked
in the sea.
And they
that
fed the swine fled,
and told it
in the city,
and
in the country.
And
they went out
to see
what it
was that
was done.
And they come
to Jesus,
and see him that
was possessed
with the devil,
and had
the legion,
sitting,
and clothed,
and
in his right mind:
and
they were afraid.
And
they that saw it
told them how
it befell
to him
that was possessed
with the devil,
and
also concerning the swine.
And
they began
to pray him
to depart
out of their coasts.
And
when he
was come
into the ship,
he that
had been possessed
with the devil
prayed him
that he
might be with him.
Howbeit Jesus suffered him not,
but
saith unto him,
Go home
to thy friends,
and tell them how
great things the Lord
hath done
for thee,
and hath had compassion
on thee.
And he departed,
and began
to publish
in Decapolis
how great things Jesus
had done for him:
and all men
did marvel.
And,
behold,
there cometh one
of the rulers
of the synagogue,
Jairus by name;
and
when he
saw him,
he fell
at his feet,
And besought him greatly,
saying,
My little daughter
lieth
at the point
of death:
I pray thee,
come and lay thy
hands on her,
that she
may be healed;
and
she shall live.
And Jesus
went with him;
and much people
followed him,
and thronged him.
And a certain woman,
which had
an issue
of blood twelve years,
And had suffered many things
of many physicians,
and had spent all that
she had,
and was
nothing bettered,
but
rather grew worse,
When
she had heard
of Jesus,
came
in the press
behind,
and touched
his garment.
For she said,
If I
may touch
but his clothes,
I shall be whole.
And straightway
the fountain
of her blood
was dried up;
and she
felt
in her body
that she
was healed
of that plague.
And Jesus,
immediately knowing
in himself
that virtue
had gone out of him,
turned him about
in the press,
and said,
Who touched
my clothes?
And his disciples
said unto him,
Thou
seest
the multitude
thronging thee,
and sayest thou,
Who touched me?
And
he looked round about
to see
her that
had done
this thing.
But the woman
fearing and trembling,
knowing what
was done in her,
came
and fell down
before him,
and told him all
the truth.
And he
said
unto her,
Daughter,
thy faith
hath made thee whole;
go in peace,
and be whole
of thy plague.
While he
yet spake,
there came
from the ruler
of the synagogue's house
certain which said,
Thy daughter
is dead:
why troublest
thou the Master any further?
As soon as Jesus
heard
the word
that was spoken,
he saith unto the ruler
of the synagogue,
Be not afraid,
only believe.
And
he suffered no man
to follow him,
save Peter,
and James,
and John
the brother
of James.
And
he cometh to the house
of the ruler
of the synagogue,
and seeth the tumult,
and them that
wept and wailed greatly.
And
when
he was come in,
he saith unto them,
Why make
ye this ado,
and weep?
the damsel
is not dead,
but sleepeth.
And
they laughed him
to scorn.
But
when
he had put them all out,
he taketh
the father
and the mother
of the damsel,
and them
that were with him,
and entereth in where
the damsel
was lying.
And he
took
the damsel
by the hand,
and said
unto her,
Talitha cumi;
which is,
being interpreted,
Damsel,
I say unto thee,
arise.
And straightway
the damsel arose,
and walked;
for she
was of the age
of twelve years.
And
they were astonished
with a great astonishment.
And
he charged them straitly
that no man
should know it;
and commanded
that something
should be given
her to eat.
And
when the day
was now far spent,
his disciples
came unto him,
and said,
This is a desert place,
and now
the time
is
far passed:
Send them away,
that they
may go
into the country round about,
and
into the villages,
and buy
themselves bread:
for they
have nothing
to eat.
He answered
and
said unto them,
Give
ye them to eat.
And
they
say unto him,
Shall
we go
and buy
two hundred pennyworth
of bread,
and give them
to eat?
He saith unto them,
How many loaves
have ye?
go and see.
And
when they knew,
they say,
Five,
and two fishes.
And
he commanded them
to make
all sit down
by companies
upon the green grass.
And they
sat down
in ranks,
by hundreds,
and
by fifties.
And when he
had taken
the five loaves
and the two fishes,
he looked up to
heaven,
and blessed,
and brake
the loaves,
and gave them
to his disciples
to set
before them;
and the two
fishes
divided
he among them all.
And
they did all eat,
and were filled.
And
they took up twelve baskets
full of the fragments,
and
of the fishes.
And they
that
did eat
of the loaves
were about five thousand men.
And straightway
he constrained
his disciples
to get
into the ship,
and
to go
to the other side before
unto Bethsaida,
while he
sent away
the people.
And
when
he had sent them away,
he departed
into a mountain
to pray.
And
when even was come,
the ship
was in the midst
of the sea,
and
he alone
on the land.
And
he saw them
toiling
in rowing;
for the wind
was contrary
unto them:
and
about the fourth watch
of the night
he cometh unto them,
walking
upon the sea,
and
would have passed by them.
But
when they
saw him
walking
upon the sea,
they
supposed
it had been
a spirit,
and cried out:
For they
all saw him,
and were troubled.
And immediately
he talked with them,
and
saith unto them,
Be of good cheer:
it is I;
be not afraid.
And he
went up
unto them
into the ship;
and the wind ceased:
and
they were sore
amazed
in themselves
beyond measure,
and wondered.
For they considered not
the miracle
of the loaves:
for their heart
was hardened.
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.
For a certain woman,
whose young daughter
had an unclean spirit,
heard of him,
and 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.
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.
And she
answered
and
said unto him,
Yes, Lord:
yet
the dogs
under the table
eat
of the children's crumbs.
And he
said
unto her,
For this
saying
go thy way;
the devil
is gone
out of thy daughter.
And
when she
was come
to her house,
she found
the devil gone out,
and her daughter
laid
upon the bed.
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.
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.
And
he took him aside
from the multitude,
and put
his fingers
into his ears,
and he spit,
and touched
his tongue;
And looking up to heaven,
he sighed,
and
saith unto him,
Ephphatha,
that is,
Be opened.
And straightway
his ears
were opened,
and
the string
of his tongue
was loosed,
and
he spake plain.
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;
And were beyond measure astonished,
saying,
He hath done all things well:
he maketh both
the deaf
to hear,
and the dumb
to speak.
In those days
the multitude
being very great,
and having nothing
to eat,
Jesus
called
his disciples
unto him,
and
saith unto them,
I have compassion
on the multitude,
because
they have now 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.
And his disciples
answered him,
From
whence can
a man
satisfy these men
with bread here
in the wilderness?
And
he asked them,
How many loaves
have ye?
And they said,
Seven.
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
they had
a few small fishes:
and he blessed,
and commanded to
set them also
before them.
So they
did eat,
and were filled:
and
they took up
of the broken meat
that was left
seven baskets.
And they
that had eaten
were about four thousand:
and
he sent them away.
And
he cometh to Bethsaida;
and they
bring
a blind man
unto him,
and besought him
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.
And he looked up,
and said,
I see men
as trees,
walking.
After that
he put
his hands
again upon his eyes,
and made him
look up:
and
he was restored,
and saw every man clearly.
And
he sent him away
to his house,
saying,
Neither
go into the town,
nor tell it
to any
in the town.
And
when he
came
to his disciples,
he saw
a great multitude
about them,
and the scribes
questioning with them.
And
straightway all the people,
when
they beheld him,
were greatly amazed,
and running
to him
saluted him.
And
he asked
the scribes,
What
question ye with them?
And one
of the multitude answered
and said,
Master,
I have brought
unto thee my son,
which hath
a dumb spirit;
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.
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.
And
they
brought him unto him:
and
when he
saw him,
straightway
the spirit
tare him;
and he
fell
on the ground,
and wallowed foaming.
And
he asked
his father,
How long
is it ago
since this
came unto him?
And he said,
Of a child.
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.
Jesus
said unto him,
If thou canst believe,
all things
are possible
to him that believeth.
And straightway
the father
of the child cried out,
and said
with tears,
Lord,
I believe;
help
thou mine 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.
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.
But Jesus
took him
by the hand,
and
lifted him up;
and he arose.
And
when he
was come
into the house,
his disciples
asked him privately,
Why could not
we cast him out?
And
he said unto them,
This kind
can come forth
by nothing,
but by prayer
and fasting.
And they
came
to Jericho:
and as he
went out of Jericho
with his disciples
and a great number
of people,
blind Bartimaeus,
the son
of Timaeus,
sat
by the highway side begging.
And
when
he heard
that it
was Jesus
of Nazareth,
he began
to cry out,
and say,
Jesus,
thou son
of David,
have mercy on me.
And many
charged him
that he
should hold
his peace:
but
he cried
the more a great deal,
Thou son
of David,
have mercy on me.
And Jesus
stood still,
and commanded him
to be called.
And they
call
the blind man,
saying unto him,
Be of good comfort,
rise;
he calleth thee.
And he,
casting away
his garment,
rose,
and came
to Jesus.
And Jesus
answered
and
said unto him,
What
wilt
thou
that I
should do
unto thee?
The blind man
said unto him,
Lord,
that I
might receive
my sight.
And Jesus
said unto him,
Go thy way;
thy faith
hath made thee whole.
And immediately
he received
his sight,
and followed Jesus
in the way.
And
on the morrow,
when
they were come
from Bethany,
he was hungry:
And seeing
a fig tree
afar off having leaves,
he came,
if haply
he might find any thing thereon:
and
when
he came to it,
he found nothing
but leaves;
for the time
of figs was not yet.
And Jesus
answered
and said unto it,
No man
eat fruit
of thee
hereafter for ever.
And his disciples
heard it.
And
in the morning,
as they passed by,
they
saw the fig tree
dried up
from the roots.
And Peter
calling
to remembrance
saith unto him,
Master,
behold,
the fig tree which
thou cursedst
is withered away.
And Jesus answering
saith unto them,
Have faith
in God.
For verily
I say unto you,
That whosoever
shall say
unto this mountain,
Be thou removed,
and be
thou cast
into the sea;
and shall not doubt
in his heart,
but shall believe
that those things
which he
saith shall come
to pass;
he shall have whatsoever
he saith.
Therefore I
say
unto you,
What things soever
ye desire,
when ye pray,
believe that
ye receive them,
and
ye shall have them.
And
in the synagogue
there was a man,
which had
a spirit
of an unclean devil,
and cried out
with a loud voice,
Saying,
Let us alone;
what have
we to do
with thee,
thou Jesus
of Nazareth?
art
thou come
to destroy us?
I know thee
who thou art;
the Holy One
of God.
And Jesus
rebuked him,
saying,
Hold thy peace,
and
come out of him.
And
when the devil
had thrown him
in the midst,
he came out of him,
and hurt him not.
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 he
arose
out of the synagogue,
and entered
into Simon's house.
And Simon's wife's mother
was taken
with a great fever;
and
they besought him
for her.
And he
stood
over her,
and rebuked
the fever;
and it
left her:
and immediately
she arose
and
ministered unto them.
And it
came
to pass,
that,
as the people
pressed
upon him
to hear the word
of God,
he stood by the lake
of Gennesaret,
And saw two ships
standing by
the lake:
but the fishermen
were gone out of them,
and were washing
their nets.
And he
entered
into one
of the ships,
which was Simon's,
and prayed him that
he would thrust
out a little
from the land.
And he sat down,
and taught
the people
out of the ship.
Now
when
he had left speaking,
he said
unto Simon,
Launch out
into the deep,
and let down
your nets for a draught.
And Simon
answering
said unto him,
Master,
we have toiled all the night,
and have taken
nothing:
nevertheless at
thy word
I will let down
the net.
And when they
had this done,
they inclosed
a great multitude
of fishes:
and their net brake.
And they
beckoned
unto their partners,
which were in the other ship,
that they
should come and help them.
And they came,
and filled
both the ships,
so that
they began to sink.
When Simon Peter
saw it,
he fell down
at Jesus' knees,
saying,
Depart from me;
for I
am a sinful man,
O Lord.
For he
was astonished,
and all
that were with him,
at the draught
of the fishes
which they
had taken:
And so
was also James,
and John,
the sons
of Zebedee,
which were
partners
with Simon.
And Jesus
said
unto Simon,
Fear not;
from henceforth
thou shalt catch men.
And
when
they had brought
their ships
to land,
they forsook all,
and followed him.
And it
came
to pass,
when
he was in a certain city,
behold a man
full of leprosy:
who seeing Jesus
fell on his face,
and besought him,
saying,
Lord,
if thou wilt,
thou canst
make me clean.
And
he put forth
his hand,
and touched him,
saying,
I will:
be thou clean.
And immediately
the leprosy
departed from him.
And
he charged him
to tell
no man:
but go,
and shew thyself
to the priest,
and offer
for thy cleansing,
according
as Moses commanded,
for a testimony
unto them.
But so much
the more
went there
a fame
abroad of him:
and great multitudes
came together
to hear,
and
to be healed
by him
of their infirmities.
And
he withdrew himself
into the wilderness,
and prayed.
And it
came to pass
on a certain day,
as he
was teaching,
that there were Pharisees
and doctors
of the law
sitting by,
which were come
out of every town
of Galilee,
and Judaea,
and Jerusalem:
and
the power
of the Lord
was present
to heal them.
And,
behold,
men brought in
a bed
a man which
was taken
with a palsy:
and they
sought
means
to bring him in,
and to lay him
before him.
And
when
they could not find
by what way
they might bring him in
because
of the multitude,
they went upon the housetop,
and let him down
through the tiling
with his couch
into the midst
before Jesus.
And
when
he saw
their faith,
he said unto him,
Man,
thy sins
are forgiven thee.
And the scribes
and the Pharisees
began to reason,
saying,
Who is
this which
speaketh blasphemies?
Who can forgive sins,
but God alone?
But
when Jesus
perceived
their thoughts,
he answering
said unto them,
What
reason
ye in your hearts?
Whether is easier,
to say,
Thy sins
be forgiven thee;
or to say,
Rise up and walk?
But that
ye may know that
the Son
of man
hath
power
upon earth
to forgive sins,
(he said
unto the sick
of the palsy,)
I say unto thee,
Arise,
and take up
thy couch,
and go
into thine house.
And immediately
he rose up
before them,
and took up
that whereon
he lay,
and departed
to his own house,
glorifying God.
And
they were all amazed,
and
they glorified God,
and were filled
with fear,
saying,
We have seen strange things
to day.
And it
came to pass also
on another sabbath,
that he
entered
into the synagogue
and taught:
and there was
a man
whose right hand
was withered.
And the scribes
and Pharisees
watched him,
whether he
would heal
on the sabbath day;
that they
might find
an accusation
against him.
But
he knew their thoughts,
and said
to the man
which had
the withered hand,
Rise up,
and stand forth
in the midst.
And he
arose
and
stood forth.
Then said Jesus
unto them,
I will ask
you one thing;
Is it lawful
on the sabbath days
to do good,
or to do evil?
to save life,
or to destroy it?
And looking round about
upon them all,
he said
unto the man,
Stretch forth thy hand.
And he
did so:
and his hand
was restored whole
as the other.
And
they were filled
with madness;
and communed one
with another
what
they might do
to Jesus.
Now
when
he had ended all
his sayings
in the audience
of the people,
he entered
into Capernaum.
And a
certain centurion's servant,
who was dear
unto him,
was sick,
and ready
to die.
And
when he
heard
of Jesus,
he sent
unto him the elders
of the Jews,
beseeching him that
he would come
and heal
his servant.
And
when they
came
to Jesus,
they besought him instantly,
saying,
That he
was worthy
for whom
he should do this:
For he
loveth our nation,
and
he hath built us
a synagogue.
Then Jesus
went with them.
And
when
he was now not far
from the house,
the centurion
sent friends
to him,
saying unto him,
Lord,
trouble
not thyself:
for I
am not worthy
that thou
shouldest enter
under my roof:
Wherefore neither thought
I myself worthy to
come unto thee:
but say
in a word,
and my servant
shall be healed.
For I
also am
a man
set
under authority,
having under me soldiers,
and
I say unto one,
Go,
and he goeth;
and to another,
Come,
and he cometh;
and to my servant,
Do this,
and
he doeth it.
When Jesus
heard these things,
he marvelled at him,
and
turned him about,
and said
unto the people
that followed him,
I say unto you,
I have not found
so great faith,
no,
not in Israel.
And they
that were sent,
returning
to the house,
found
the servant whole
that had been sick.
And it
came to pass
the day after,
that he
went into a
city called Nain;
and
many of his disciples
went with him,
and much people.
Now
when he
came nigh
to the gate
of the city,
behold,
there was
a dead man carried out,
the only son
of his mother,
and
she was a widow:
and much people
of the city was with her.
And
when the Lord
saw her,
he had compassion
on her,
and said
unto her,
Weep not.
And he
came
and touched
the bier:
and
they
that bare him
stood still.
And he said,
Young man,
I say unto thee,
Arise.
And he
that was dead
sat up,
and began
to speak.
And
he delivered him
to his mother.
And there came
a fear on all:
and
they glorified God,
saying,
That a great prophet
is risen up among us;
and,
That God
hath visited
his people.
Now it
came
to pass
on a certain day,
that he
went into a ship
with his disciples:
and
he said unto them,
Let us go over
unto the other side
of the lake.
And
they
launched forth.
But as they
sailed
he fell asleep:
and there came
down a storm
of wind
on the lake;
and
they were filled
with water,
and were in jeopardy.
And they
came
to him,
and awoke him,
saying,
Master,
master,
we perish.
Then he arose,
and rebuked
the wind
and the raging
of the water:
and they ceased,
and there was
a calm.
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.
And
they arrived at
the country
of the Gadarenes,
which is over
against Galilee.
And
when
he went forth
to land,
there met him
out of the city
a certain man,
which had
devils long time,
and ware no clothes,
neither abode
in any house,
but in the tombs.
When
he saw Jesus,
he cried out,
and fell down
before him,
and
with a loud voice said,
What
have
I to do
with thee,
Jesus,
thou Son
of God most high?
I beseech thee,
torment me not.
(For
he had commanded
the unclean spirit to
come
out of the man.
For oftentimes
it had caught him:
and
he was kept
bound
with chains and
in fetters;
and
he brake
the bands,
and was driven
of the devil
into the wilderness.)
And Jesus
asked him,
saying,
What
is thy name?
And he said,
Legion:
because
many devils
were entered into him.
And
they besought him
that he
would not command them to go out
into the deep.
And there was there an herd
of many swine feeding
on the mountain:
and
they besought him
that he
would suffer them
to enter into them.
And
he suffered them.
Then went
the devils
out of the man,
and entered
into the swine:
and the herd
ran violently down a steep place
into the lake,
and were choked.
When they
that fed them
saw
what was done,
they fled,
and went
and told it
in the city
and in the country.
Then
they went out
to see
what was done;
and came
to Jesus,
and found
the man,
out of whom the devils
were departed,
sitting at the feet
of Jesus,
clothed,
and
in his right mind:
and
they were afraid.
They
also which saw it
told them
by what
means
he that
was possessed
of the devils
was healed.
Then the whole multitude
of the country
of the Gadarenes round
about besought him
to depart from them;
for they
were taken
with great fear:
and
he went up
into the ship,
and returned
back again.
Now the man
out of whom the devils
were departed
besought him
that he
might be with him:
but Jesus
sent him away,
saying,
Return to thine own house,
and shew how
great things God
hath done
unto thee.
And
he went his way,
and published
throughout the whole city
how great things
Jesus
had done unto him.
And,
behold,
there came a man
named Jairus,
and
he was a ruler
of the synagogue:
and he
fell down
at Jesus' feet,
and besought him
that he
would come
into his house:
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 a woman
having an issue
of blood twelve years,
which had spent all
her
living
upon physicians,
neither could be healed
of any,
Came behind him,
and touched
the border
of his garment:
and immediately
her issue
of blood stanched.
And Jesus said,
Who touched me?
When all denied,
Peter and they
that were with him said,
Master,
the multitude throng thee
and press thee,
and sayest thou,
Who touched me?
And Jesus said,
Somebody hath touched me:
for I
perceive that virtue
is gone out of me.
And
when the woman
saw that
she was not hid,
she came trembling,
and falling down
before him,
she declared
unto him
before all the people
for what
cause
she had touched him,
and
how she
was healed immediately.
And he
said
unto her,
Daughter,
be of good comfort:
thy faith
hath made thee whole;
go in peace.
While he
yet spake,
there cometh one
from the ruler
of the synagogue's house,
saying to him,
Thy daughter
is dead;
trouble
not the Master.
But
when Jesus
heard it,
he answered him,
saying,
Fear not:
believe only,
and
she shall be made whole.
And
when he
came
into the house,
he suffered no man
to go in,
save Peter,
and James,
and John,
and the father
and the mother
of the maiden.
And all wept,
and bewailed her:
but he said,
Weep not;
she is not dead,
but sleepeth.
And
they laughed him
to scorn,
knowing that
she was dead.
And
he put them all out,
and took her
by the hand,
and called,
saying,
Maid,
arise.
And her spirit
came again,
and
she arose straightway:
and he
commanded
to give
her meat.
And her parents
were astonished:
but
he charged them that
they should tell no man
what was done.
And when the day
began
to wear away,
then came
the twelve,
and
said unto him,
Send the multitude away,
that they
may go
into the towns
and country round about,
and lodge,
and get victuals:
for we
are here
in a desert place.
But
he said unto them,
Give
ye them to eat.
And they said,
We have no more
but five loaves
and two fishes;
except we
should go
and buy meat
for all this people.
For they
were about five thousand men.
And he
said
to his disciples,
Make them
sit down
by fifties
in a company.
And they
did so,
and made them
all sit down.
Then he
took
the five loaves
and the two fishes,
and looking up to heaven,
he blessed them,
and brake,
and gave to the disciples
to set
before the multitude.
And they
did eat,
and were all filled:
and there was taken up
of fragments
that remained
to them twelve baskets.
And it
came
to pass,
that on the next day,
when
they were come down
from the hill,
much people
met him.
And,
behold,
a man
of the company cried out,
saying,
Master,
I beseech thee,
look upon my son:
for he
is mine only child.
And,
lo,
a spirit
taketh him,
and
he suddenly crieth out;
and it
teareth him that
he foameth again,
and bruising him
hardly departeth from him.
And I
besought
thy disciples
to cast him out;
and
they could not.
And Jesus answering said,
O faithless
and perverse generation,
how long
shall
I be with you,
and suffer you?
Bring thy son hither.
And as he
was yet
a coming,
the devil
threw him down,
and tare him.
And Jesus
rebuked the unclean spirit,
and healed
the child,
and delivered him again
to his father.
And
they were all amazed
at the mighty power
of God.
But
while they
wondered every one
at all
things which Jesus did,
he said
unto his disciples,
And
he was casting
out a devil,
and it
was dumb.
And it
came
to pass,
when the devil
was gone out,
the dumb spake;
and the people wondered.
But some of them said,
He casteth out devils
through Beelzebub
the chief
of the devils.
And
he was teaching in one
of the synagogues
on the sabbath.
And,
behold,
there was
a woman which
had a spirit
of infirmity eighteen years,
and
was bowed together,
and could in no
wise lift
up herself.
And
when Jesus
saw her,
he called her
to him,
and said
unto her,
Woman,
thou art
loosed
from thine infirmity.
And he
laid
his hands
on her:
and immediately
she was made straight,
and glorified God.
And
the ruler
of the synagogue
answered
with indignation,
because
that Jesus
had healed
on the sabbath day,
and said
unto the people,
There are six days
in which men
ought to work:
in them therefore come
and be healed,
and
not on the sabbath day.
The Lord
then answered him,
and said,
Thou hypocrite,
doth not each one
of you
on the sabbath loose
his ox or his ass
from the stall,
and lead him away
to watering?
And ought not
this woman,
being a daughter
of Abraham,
whom Satan
hath bound,
lo,
these eighteen years,
be loosed
from this bond
on the sabbath day?
And
when
he had said
these things,
all his adversaries
were ashamed:
and all
the people
rejoiced
for all
the glorious things
that were done by him.
And it
came
to pass,
as he
went into the house
of one
of the chief Pharisees
to eat bread
on the sabbath day,
that they
watched him.
And,
behold,
there was
a certain man
before him which
had the dropsy.
And Jesus answering
spake unto the lawyers
and Pharisees,
saying,
Is it lawful
to heal
on the sabbath day?
And
they held
their peace.
And he
took him,
and healed him,
and let him go;
And answered them,
saying,
Which of you
shall have
an ass or an ox
fallen
into a pit,
and will not straightway pull
him out
on the sabbath day?
And
they could not answer him again
to these things.
And it
came
to pass,
as he
went to Jerusalem,
that he
passed
through the midst
of Samaria and Galilee.
And as he
entered
into a certain village,
there met him
ten men that
were lepers,
which stood afar off:
And they
lifted
up their voices,
and said,
Jesus, Master,
have mercy on us.
And
when he
saw them,
he said unto them,
Go shew yourselves
unto the priests.
And it
came
to pass,
that,
as they went,
they were cleansed.
And one of them,
when he
saw that
he was healed,
turned back,
and
with a loud voice
glorified God,
And fell down
on his face
at his feet,
giving him thanks:
and
he was a Samaritan.
And Jesus answering said,
Were
there not ten cleansed?
but
where are the nine?
There are not found
that returned
to give
glory to God,
save this stranger.
And
he said unto him,
Arise,
go thy way:
thy faith
hath made thee whole.
And it
came
to pass,
that as he
was come nigh
unto Jericho,
a certain blind man
sat
by the way side begging:
And hearing
the multitude pass by,
he asked
what it meant.
And
they told him,
that Jesus
of Nazareth passeth by.
And he cried,
saying,
Jesus,
thou son
of David,
have mercy on me.
And they which
went
before rebuked him,
that he
should hold
his peace:
but
he cried so much
the more,
Thou son
of David,
have mercy on me.
And Jesus stood,
and commanded him
to be brought unto him:
and
when
he was come near,
he asked him,
Saying,
What
wilt
thou
that I
shall do
unto thee?
And he said,
Lord,
that I
may receive
my sight.
And Jesus
said unto him,
Receive thy sight:
thy faith
hath saved thee.
And immediately
he received
his sight,
and followed him,
glorifying God:
and all
the people,
when they
saw it,
gave
praise
unto God.
When they which
were
about him saw
what would follow,
they said unto him,
Lord,
shall
we smite
with the sword?
And one
of them smote
the servant
of the high priest,
and cut off
his right ear.
And Jesus
answered
and said,
Suffer ye thus far.
And
he touched
his ear,
and healed him.
And the third day
there was a marriage
in Cana
of Galilee;
and
the mother
of Jesus
was there:
And both Jesus
was called,
and his disciples,
to the marriage.
And
when
they wanted wine,
the mother
of Jesus
saith unto him,
They
have no wine.
Jesus saith unto her,
Woman,
what have
I to do
with thee?
mine hour
is not yet come.
His mother
saith unto the servants,
Whatsoever
he saith unto you,
do it.
And there were set there
six waterpots
of stone,
after the manner
of the purifying
of the Jews,
containing two
or three firkins apiece.
Jesus
saith unto them,
Fill the waterpots
with water.
And
they filled them
up to the brim.
And
he saith unto them,
Draw out now,
and bear
unto the governor
of the feast.
And
they bare it.
When the ruler
of the feast
had tasted
the water
that was made wine,
and knew not whence
it was:
(but the servants
which drew
the water knew;)
the governor
of the feast
called the bridegroom,
And
saith unto him,
Every man
at the beginning
doth set forth
good wine;
and
when men
have well drunk,
then that which
is worse:
but
thou hast kept
the good wine
until now.
This
beginning
of miracles
did Jesus
in Cana
of Galilee,
and manifested
forth his glory;
and his disciples
believed on him.
So Jesus
came again
into Cana
of Galilee,
where he
made the water wine.
And there was
a certain nobleman,
whose son
was sick
at Capernaum.
When he
heard
that Jesus
was come out of Judaea
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.
Then said
Jesus unto him, Except
ye see
signs
and wonders,
ye will not believe.
The nobleman
saith unto him,
Sir,
come
down ere my child die.
Jesus
saith unto him,
Go thy way;
thy son liveth.
And the man
believed
the word that Jesus
had spoken unto him,
and
he went his way.
And as he
was now going down,
his servants
met him,
and told him,
saying,
Thy son liveth.
Then enquired
he of them the hour
when
he began
to amend.
And
they
said unto him,
Yesterday
at the seventh hour
the fever
left him.
So the father
knew that it
was at the same hour,
in the which Jesus
said unto him,
Thy son liveth:
and
himself believed,
and his whole house.
This is again
the second miracle that Jesus did,
when
he was come out of Judaea
into Galilee.
After this
there was
a feast
of the Jews;
and Jesus
went up to Jerusalem.
Now there is
at Jerusalem
by the sheep
market a pool,
which is called in
the Hebrew tongue Bethesda,
having five porches.
In these lay
a great multitude
of impotent folk,
of blind,
halt,
withered,
waiting
for the moving
of the water.
For an angel
went down
at a certain season
into the pool,
and troubled
the water:
whosoever
then first after the troubling
of the water
stepped
in was made whole
of whatsoever disease
he had.
And a certain man
was there,
which had
an infirmity thirty
and eight years.
When Jesus
saw him lie,
and knew
that he
had been now
a long time
in that case,
he saith unto him,
Wilt
thou be made whole?
The impotent man
answered him,
Sir,
I have no man,
when the water
is troubled,
to put me
into the pool:
but
while I
am coming,
another steppeth down
before me.
Jesus
saith unto him,
Rise,
take up
thy bed,
and walk.
And immediately
the man
was made whole,
and took up
his bed,
and walked:
and on the same day
was the sabbath.
The Jews
therefore said
unto him that
was cured,
It is the sabbath day:
it is not lawful
for thee to carry
thy bed.
He answered them,
He that
made me whole,
the same said
unto me,
Take up thy bed,
and walk.
Then asked
they him,
What man
is that
which said
unto thee,
Take up thy bed,
and walk?
And he
that was healed wist
not who it was:
for Jesus
had conveyed himself away,
a multitude
being
in that place.
Afterward
Jesus findeth him
in the temple,
and
said unto him,
Behold,
thou art
made whole:
sin no more,
lest
a worse thing
come
unto thee.
The man departed,
and told
the Jews that it
was Jesus,
which had made him whole.
And therefore did
the Jews
persecute Jesus,
and sought
to slay him,
because
he had done
these things
on the sabbath day.
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 this
he said
to prove him:
for he himself
knew
what he would do.
Philip answered him,
Two
hundred pennyworth
of bread
is not sufficient
for them,
that every one
of them may take
a little.
One
of his disciples,
Andrew,
Simon Peter's brother,
saith unto him,
There is
a lad here,
which hath
five barley loaves,
and two small fishes:
but
what are
they among so many?
And Jesus said,
Make the men sit down.
Now there was much grass
in the place.
So the men sat down,
in number
about five thousand.
And Jesus
took the loaves;
and
when
he had given thanks,
he distributed
to the disciples,
and the disciples
to them
that were set down;
and likewise
of the fishes
as much as they would.
When
they were filled,
he said
unto his disciples,
Gather
up the fragments
that remain,
that nothing
be lost.
Therefore they
gathered them together,
and filled twelve baskets
with the fragments
of the five barley loaves,
which remained
over and above
unto them that
had eaten.
Then those men,
when
they had seen
the miracle that Jesus did,
said,
This is
of a truth
that prophet
that should come
into the world.
And
when even was now come,
his disciples
went down
unto the sea,
And entered
into a ship,
and went over
the sea
toward Capernaum.
And it
was now dark,
and Jesus
was not come
to them.
And the sea
arose
by reason
of a great
wind that blew.
So when
they had rowed
about five
and twenty
or thirty furlongs,
they see Jesus
walking
on the sea,
and drawing nigh
unto the ship:
and
they were afraid.
But
he saith unto them,
It is I;
be not afraid.
Then
they willingly received him
into the ship:
and immediately
the ship
was at the land
whither they went.
And
as Jesus
passed by,
he saw
a man which
was blind
from his birth.
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.
I must work
the works
of him that
sent me,
while it
is day:
the night cometh,
when no man
can work.
As long
as I am in the world,
I am the light
of the world.
When
he had thus spoken,
he spat
on the ground,
and made clay
of the spittle,
and he
anointed
the eyes
of the blind man
with the clay,
And
said unto him,
Go,
wash in the pool
of Siloam,
(which
is by interpretation,
Sent.)
He went
his way therefore,
and washed,
and came seeing.
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
they
unto him,
How were
thine eyes opened?
He answered
and said,
A man
that is called
Jesus made clay,
and anointed
mine eyes,
and said unto me,
Go to the pool
of Siloam,
and wash:
and I
went
and washed,
and
I received sight.
Then said
they unto him, Where
is he?
He said,
I know not.
They brought
to the Pharisees
him that
aforetime was blind.
And it
was the sabbath day
when Jesus
made the clay,
and opened
his eyes.
Then
again the Pharisees
also asked him how
he had received
his sight.
He said unto them,
He put clay
upon mine eyes,
and I washed,
and do see.
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.
They say
unto the blind man again,
What
sayest
thou of him,
that he
hath opened thine eyes?
He said,
He is a prophet.
But the Jews
did not believe concerning him,
that he
had been blind,
and received
his sight,
until they
called
the parents
of him that
had received
his sight.
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:
But by what
means
he now seeth,
we know not;
or who
hath opened
his eyes,
we know not:
he is of age;
ask him:
he shall speak
for himself.
These words
spake his parents,
because
they feared
the Jews:
for the Jews
had agreed already,
that if any man
did confess
that he
was Christ,
he should be put
out of the synagogue.
Therefore said
his parents,
He is of age;
ask him.
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.
He answered
and said,
Whether
he be
a sinner
or no,
I know not:
one thing
I know,
that,
whereas
I was blind,
now I see.
Then said
they
to him again,
What
did
he to thee?
how opened he thine eyes?
He answered them,
I have told
you already,
and
ye did not hear:
wherefore would
ye hear it
again?
will
ye also be
his disciples?
Then
they reviled him,
and said,
Thou art his disciple;
but
we are Moses' disciples.
We know
that God
spake unto Moses:
as for this fellow,
we know not
from whence he is.
The man
answered
and
said unto them,
Why herein is
a marvellous thing,
that ye
know not
from whence
he is,
and yet
he hath opened mine eyes.
Now we
know
that God heareth
not sinners:
but
if any man
be
a worshipper
of God,
and doeth his will,
him he heareth.
Since the world
began
was
it not heard
that any man
opened the eyes
of one
that was born blind.
If this man
were not of God,
he could do nothing.
They answered
and
said unto him,
Thou
wast altogether born
in sins,
and dost
thou teach us?
And
they
cast him out.
Jesus
heard
that they
had cast him out;
and
when
he had found him,
he said unto him,
Dost thou
believe
on the Son
of God?
He answered
and said,
Who is he,
Lord,
that I
might believe on him?
And Jesus
said unto him,
Thou
hast
both seen him,
and it
is
he that
talketh with thee.
And he said,
Lord,
I believe.
And
he worshipped him.
And Jesus said,
For judgment
I am come
into this world,
that they
which see
not might see;
and
that they
which see
might be made blind.
And some of the Pharisees
which were with him heard
these words,
and
said unto him,
Are
we blind also?
Jesus
said unto them,
If ye
were blind,
ye should have
no sin:
but now
ye say,
We see;
therefore your sin remaineth.
Now a certain man
was sick,
named Lazarus,
of Bethany,
the town
of Mary
and her sister Martha.
(It was that Mary
which anointed
the Lord
with ointment,
and wiped
his feet
with her hair,
whose brother Lazarus
was sick.)
Therefore his sisters
sent unto him,
saying,
Lord,
behold,
he whom
thou lovest
is sick.
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.
Now Jesus
loved Martha,
and her sister,
and Lazarus.
When
he had heard therefore that
he was sick,
he abode two days
still in the same place
where he was.
Then after that
saith
he to his disciples,
Let us
go
into Judaea again.
His disciples
say unto him,
Master,
the Jews of late
sought
to stone thee;
and goest
thou thither again?
Jesus answered,
Are
there not twelve hours
in the day?
If any man
walk
in the day,
he stumbleth not,
because
he seeth
the light
of this world.
But
if a man
walk in the night,
he stumbleth,
because
there is
no light in him.
These things
said he:
and
after that
he saith unto them,
Our friend Lazarus sleepeth;
but I go,
that I
may awake him out of sleep.
Then said
his disciples,
Lord,
if he sleep,
he shall do well.
Howbeit Jesus
spake of his death:
but
they thought that
he had spoken
of taking
of rest
in sleep.
Then said Jesus
unto them plainly,
Lazarus is dead.
And I
am glad
for your sakes
that
I was not there,
to the intent
ye may believe;
nevertheless let us
go unto him.
Then said Thomas,
which is called
Didymus,
unto his fellowdisciples,
Let us
also go,
that we
may die with him.
Then
when Jesus came,
he found
that he
had lain
in the grave
four days already.
Now Bethany
was nigh
unto Jerusalem,
about fifteen furlongs off:
And many
of the Jews
came
to Martha
and Mary,
to comfort them concerning their brother.
Then Martha,
as soon as she
heard
that Jesus
was coming,
went
and met him:
but Mary
sat still
in the house.
Then said Martha
unto Jesus, Lord,
if thou
hadst
been here,
my brother
had not died.
But I know,
that even now,
whatsoever thou
wilt ask of God,
God will give it thee.
Jesus saith unto her,
Thy brother
shall rise again.
Martha
saith unto him,
I know that
he shall rise
again
in the resurrection
at the last day.
Jesus
said
unto her,
I am the resurrection,
and the life:
he that believeth in me,
though he
were dead,
yet shall
he live:
And whosoever
liveth
and believeth
in me shall never die.
Believest thou this?
She saith unto him,
Yea, Lord:
I believe that
thou art
the Christ,
the Son of God,
which should come
into the world.
And
when
she had so said,
she went her way,
and called
Mary her sister secretly,
saying,
The Master
is come,
and calleth
for thee.
As soon as she
heard that,
she arose quickly,
and
came unto him.
Now Jesus
was not yet come
into the town,
but was in that place
where Martha
met him.
The Jews
then which
were with her
in the house,
and comforted her,
when
they saw Mary,
that she
rose
up hastily
and went out,
followed her,
saying,
She goeth
unto the grave
to weep there.
Then
when Mary
was come
where Jesus was,
and saw him,
she fell down
at his feet,
saying unto him,
Lord,
if thou
hadst
been here,
my brother
had not died.
When Jesus
therefore saw
her weeping,
and the Jews
also weeping
which came
with her,
he groaned
in the spirit,
and was troubled.
And said,
Where
have ye laid him?
They said unto him,
Lord,
come and see.
Then said
the Jews,
Behold
how he
loved him!
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?
Jesus therefore again groaning
in himself
cometh to the grave.
It was a cave,
and a stone lay
upon it.
Jesus said,
Take
ye away
the stone.
Martha,
the sister
of him that
was dead,
saith unto him,
Lord,
by this time
he stinketh:
for he
hath been
dead four days.
Jesus saith unto her,
Said I
not unto thee,
that,
if thou
wouldest believe,
thou shouldest see
the glory
of God?
Then
they took away
the stone
from the place
where the dead
was laid.
And Jesus
lifted
up his eyes,
and said,
Father,
I thank thee
that thou
hast heard me.
And I
knew that
thou hearest me
always:
but
because
of the people
which stand by
I said it,
that they
may believe that
thou hast sent me.
And
when
he thus
had spoken,
he cried
with a loud voice,
Lazarus,
come forth.
And he
that was dead
came forth,
bound hand
and foot
with graveclothes:
and his face
was bound about
with a napkin.
Jesus
saith unto them,
Loose him,
and let him go.
Then many
of the Jews
which came
to Mary,
and had seen
the things which Jesus did,
believed on him.
But some of them
went
their ways
to the Pharisees,
and told them
what
things Jesus
had done.
And
he said unto them,
Cast the net
on the right side
of the ship,
and ye shall find.
They cast
therefore,
and now
they were not able
to draw it
for the multitude
of fishes.
