ISA-11:9 ...for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD,

as the waters cover the sea.

Luke 1

1. Forasmuch <1895> as many <4183> have taken <2021> in hand

<2021> to set <0392> forth <0392> in order <1299> a declaration

<1335> of those <3588> things <4229> which are most surely

<4135> believed <4135> among <1722> us,

2 Even <2531> as they delivered <3860> them unto us, which

<3588> from the beginning <0746> were eyewitnesses <0845>, and

ministers <5257> of the word <3056>;

3 It seemed <1380> good to me also <2504>, having had perfect

<0199> understanding <3877> of all <3956> things from the very

first <0509>, to write <1125> unto thee in order <2517>, most

<2903> excellent <2903> Theophilus <2321>,

4 That thou mightest know <1921> the certainty <0803> of those

things <3056>, wherein <3739> thou hast been instructed <2727>.

5. There was in the days <2250> of Herod <2264>, the king

<0935> of Judaea <2449>, a certain <5100> priest <2409> named

<3686> Zacharias <2197>, of the course <2183> of Abia <0007>:

and his wife <1135> [was] of the daughters <2364> of Aaron

<0002>, and her name <3686> [was] Elisabeth <1665>.

6 And they were both <0297> righteous <1342> before <1799> God

<2316>, walking <4198> in all <3956> the commandments <1785> and

ordinances <1345> of the Lord <2962> blameless <0273>.

7 And they had <1510> no <3756> child <5043>, because <2530>

that Elisabeth <1665> was barren <4723>, and they both <0297>

were [now] well <4260> stricken <4260> in years <2250>.

8 And it came <1096> to pass, that while <3588> he executed

<2407> the priest's <2407> office <2407> before <1725> God

<2316> in the order <5010> of his course <2183>,

9 According <2596> to the custom <1485> of the priest's <2405>

office <2405>, his lot <2975> was to burn <2370> incense <2370>

when he went <1525> into <1519> the temple <3485> of the Lord

<2962>.

10 And the whole <3956> multitude <4128> of the people <2992>

were praying <4336> without <1854> at the time <5610> of incense

<2368>.

11 And there appeared <3700> unto him an angel <0032> of the

Lord <2962> standing <2476> on <1537> the right <1188> side

<1188> of the altar <2379> of incense <2368>.

12 And when Zacharias <2197> saw <1492> [him], he was troubled

<5015>, and fear <5401> fell <1968> upon him.

13 But the angel <0032> said <2036> unto him, Fear <5399> not,

Zacharias <2197>: for thy prayer <1162> is heard <1522>; and thy

wife <1135> Elisabeth <1665> shall bear <1080> thee a son <5207>,

and thou shalt call <2564> his name <3686> John <2491>.

14 And thou shalt have <2071> joy <5479> and gladness <0020>;

and many <4183> shall rejoice <5463> at <1909> his birth <1083>.

15 For he shall be great <3173> in the sight <1799> of the

Lord <2962>, and shall drink <4095> neither <3361> wine <3631>

nor <2532> strong <4608> drink <4608>; and he shall be filled

<4130> with the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151>, even <2089> from his

mother's <3384> womb <2836>.

16 And many <4183> of the children <5207> of Israel <2474>

shall he turn <1994> to the Lord <2962> their God <2316>.

17 And he shall go <4281> before <1799> him in the spirit

<4151> and power <1411> of Elias <2243>, to turn <1994> the

hearts <2588> of the fathers <3962> to the children <5043>, and

the disobedient <0545> to the wisdom <5428> of the just <1342>;

to make <2090> ready <2090> a people <2992> prepared <2680> for

the Lord <2962>.

18 And Zacharias <2197> said <2036> unto the angel <0032>,

Whereby <5101> shall I know <1097> this <5124>? for I am an old

<4246> man, and my wife <1135> well <4260> stricken <4260> in

years <2250>.

19 And the angel <0032> answering <0611> said <2036> unto him,

I am <1510> Gabriel <1043>, that stand <3936> in the presence

<1799> of God <2316>; and am sent <0649> to speak <2980> unto

thee, and to shew <2097> thee these <5023> glad <2097> tidings

<2097>.

20 And, behold <2400>, thou shalt be dumb <4623>, and not able

<1410> to speak <2980>, until <0891> the day <2250> that these

<5023> things shall be performed <1096>, because <3759> thou

believest <4100> not my words <3056>, which <3748> shall be

fulfilled <4137> in their season <2540>.

21 And the people <2992> waited <4328> for Zacharias <2197>,

and marvelled <2296> that he tarried <5549> so long in the

temple <3485>.

22 And when he came <1831> out, he could <1410> not speak

<2980> unto them: and they perceived <1921> that he had seen

<3708> a vision <3701> in the temple <3485>: for he beckoned

<1269> unto them, and remained <1265> speechless <2974>.

23 And it came <1096> to pass, that, as soon as the days

<2250> of his ministration <3009> were accomplished <4130>, he

departed <0565> to his own house <3624>.

24 And after <3326> those <5025> days <2250> his wife <1135>

Elisabeth <1665> conceived <4815>, and hid <4032> herself <1438>

five <4002> months <3376>, saying <3004>,

25 Thus <3779> hath the Lord <2962> dealt <4160> with me in

the days <2250> wherein <3739> he looked <1896> on <1896> [me],

to take <0851> away <0851> my reproach <3681> among <1722> men

<0444>.

26. And in the sixth <1623> month <3376> the angel <0032>

Gabriel <1043> was sent <0649> from God <2316> unto a city

<4172> of Galilee <1056>, named <3686> Nazareth <3478>,

27 To a virgin <3933> espoused <3423> to a man <0435> whose

<3739> name <3686> was Joseph <2501>, of the house <3624> of

David <1138>; and the virgin's <3933> name <3686> [was] Mary

<3137>.

28 And the angel <0032> came <1525> in unto her, and said

<2036>, Hail <5463>, [thou that art] highly favoured <5487>, the

Lord <2962> [is] with thee: blessed <2127> [art] thou among

<1722> women <1135>.

29 And when she saw <1492> [him], she was troubled <1298> at

<1909> his saying <3056>, and cast <1260> in her mind what

<4217> manner <4217> of salutation <0783> this <3778> should be.

30 And the angel <0032> said <2036> unto her, Fear <5399> not,

Mary <3137>: for thou hast found <2147> favour <5485> with God

<2316>.

31 And, behold <2400>, thou shalt conceive <4815> in thy womb

<1064>, and bring <5088> forth <5088> a son <5207>, and shalt

call <2564> his name <3686> JESUS <2424>.

32 He shall be great <3173>, and shall be called <2564> the

Son <5207> of the Highest <5310>: and the Lord <2962> God <2316>

shall give <1325> unto him the throne <2362> of his father

<3962> David <1138>:

33 And he shall reign <0936> over <1909> the house <3624> of

Jacob <2384> for ever <0165>; and of his kingdom <0932> there

shall be no <3756> end <5056>.

34 Then <1161> said <2036> Mary <3137> unto the angel <0032>,

How <4459> shall this <5124> be, seeing <1893> I know <1097> not

a man <0435>?

35 And the angel <0032> answered <0611> and said <2036> unto

her, The Holy <0040> Ghost <4151> shall come <1904> upon thee,

and the power <1411> of the Highest <5310> shall overshadow

<1982> thee: therefore <1352> also <2532> that holy <0040> thing

which shall be born <1080> of thee shall be called <2564> the

Son <5207> of God <2316>.

36 And, behold <2400>, thy cousin <4773> Elisabeth <1665>, she

hath also <2532> conceived <4815> a son <5207> in her old <1094>

age: and this <3778> is the sixth <1623> month <3376> with her,

who <3588> was called <2564> barren <4723>.

37 For with God <2316> nothing <4487> shall be impossible

<0101>.

38 And Mary <3137> said <2036>, Behold <2400> the handmaid

<1399> of the Lord <2962>; be it unto me according <2596> to thy

word <4487>. And the angel <0032> departed <0565> from her.

39. And Mary <3137> arose <0450> in those <5025> days <2250>,

and went <4198> into <1519> the hill <3714> country with haste

<4710>, into <1519> a city <4172> of Juda <2448>;

40 And entered <1525> into <1519> the house <3624> of

Zacharias <2197>, and saluted <0782> Elisabeth <1665>.

41 And it came <1096> to pass, that, when <5613> Elisabeth

<1665> heard <0191> the salutation <0783> of Mary <3137>, the

babe <1025> leaped <4640> in her womb <2836>; and Elisabeth

<1665> was filled <4130> with the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151>:

42 And she spake <0400> out with a loud <3173> voice <5456>,

and said <2036>, Blessed <2127> [art] thou among <1722> women

<1135>, and blessed <2127> [is] the fruit <2590> of thy womb

<2836>.

43 And whence <4159> [is] this <5124> to me, that the mother

<3384> of my Lord <2962> should come <2064> to me?

44 For, lo <2400>, as soon as the voice <5456> of thy

salutation <0783> sounded <1096> in mine <3450> ears <3775>, the

babe <1025> leaped <4640> in my womb <2836> for joy <0020>.

45 And blessed <3107> [is] she that believed <4100>: for there

shall be a performance <5050> of those <3588> things which were

told <2980> her from the Lord <2962>.

46 And Mary <3137> said <2036>, My soul <5590> doth magnify

<3170> the Lord <2962>,

47 And my spirit <4151> hath rejoiced <0021> in God <2316> my

Saviour <4990>.

48 For he hath regarded <1914> the low <5014> estate of his

handmaiden <1399>: for, behold <2400>, from henceforth <3568>

all <3956> generations <1074> shall call <3106> me blessed

<3106>.

49 For he that is mighty <1415> hath done <4160> to me great

<3167> things; and holy <0040> [is] his name <3686>.

50 And his mercy <1656> [is] on them that fear <5399> him from

generation <1074> to generation <1074>.

51 He hath shewed <4160> strength <2904> with his arm <1023>;

he hath scattered <1287> the proud <5244> in the imagination

<1271> of their hearts <2588>.

52 He hath put <2507> down <2507> the mighty <1413> from

[their] seats <2362>, and exalted <5312> them of low <5011>

degree <5011>.

53 He hath filled <1705> the hungry <3983> with good <0018>

things; and the rich <4147> he hath sent <1821> empty <2756>

away <1821>.

54 He hath holpen <0482> his servant <3816> Israel <2474>, in

remembrance <3415> of [his] mercy <1656>;

55 As he spake <2980> to our fathers <3962>, to Abraham <11>,

and to his seed <4690> for ever <0165>.

56 And Mary <3137> abode <3306> with her about <5616> three

<5140> months <3376>, and returned <5290> to her own house

<3624>.

57. Now <1161> Elisabeth's <1665> full <4130> time <5550> came

<4130> that she should be delivered <5088>; and she brought

<1080> forth <1080> a son <5207>.

58 And her neighbours <4040> and her cousins <4773> heard

<0191> how <3754> the Lord <2962> had shewed <3170> great <3170>

mercy <1656> upon her; and they rejoiced <4796> with her.

59 And it came <1096> to pass, that on <1722> the eighth

<3590> day <2250> they came <2064> to circumcise <4059> the

child <3813>; and they called <2564> him Zacharias <2197>, after

<1909> the name <3686> of his father <3962>.

60 And his mother <3384> answered <0611> and said <2036>, Not

[so]; but he shall be called <2564> John <2491>.

61 And they said <2036> unto her, There is none <3762> of thy

kindred <4772> that is called <2564> by this <5129> name <3686>.

62 And they made <1770> signs <1770> to his father <3962>, how

<5101> he would <2309> have him called <2564>.

63 And he asked <0154> for a writing <4093> table <4093>, and

wrote <1125>, saying <3004>, His name <3686> is John <2491>. And

they marvelled <2296> all <3956>.

64 And his mouth <4750> was opened <0455> immediately <3916>,

and his tongue <1100> [loosed], and he spake <2980>, and praised

<2127> God <2316>.

65 And fear <5401> came <1096> on <1909> all <3956> that dwelt

<4039> round <4039> about <4037> them: and all <3956> these

<5023> sayings <4487> were noised <1255> abroad <1255>

throughout <1722> all <3650> the hill <3714> country of Judaea

<2449>.

66 And all <3956> they that heard <0191> [them] laid <5087>

[them] up in their hearts <2588>, saying <3004>, What <0686>

manner <0686> of child <3813> shall this <5124> be! And the hand

<5495> of the Lord <2962> was with him.

67. And his father <3962> Zacharias <2197> was filled <4130>

with the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151>, and prophesied <4395>, saying

<3004>,

68 Blessed <2128> [be] the Lord <2962> God <2316> of Israel

<2474>; for he hath visited <1980> and redeemed <3085> his

people <2992>,

69 And hath raised <1453> up an horn <2768> of salvation

<4991> for us in the house <3624> of his servant <3816> David

<1138>;

70 As he spake <2980> by the mouth <4750> of his holy <0040>

prophets <4396>, which <3588> have been since <0575> the world

<0165> began:

71 That we should be saved <4991> from our enemies <2190>, and

from the hand <5495> of all <3956> that hate <3404> us;

72 To perform <4160> the mercy <1656> [promised] to our

fathers <3962>, and to remember <3415> his holy <0040> covenant

<1242>;

73 The oath <3727> which <3739> he sware <3660> to our father

<3962> Abraham <11>,

74 That he would grant <1325> unto us, that we being delivered

<4506> out of the hand <5495> of our enemies <2190> might serve

<3000> him without <0870> fear <0870>,

75 In holiness <3742> and righteousness <1343> before <1799>

him, all <3956> the days <2250> of our life <2222>.

76 And thou, child <3813>, shalt be called <2564> the prophet

<4396> of the Highest <5310>: for thou shalt go <4313> before

<4253> the face <4383> of the Lord <2962> to prepare <2090> his

ways <3598>;

77 To give <1325> knowledge <1108> of salvation <4991> unto

his people <2992> by the remission <0859> of their sins <0266>,

78 Through <1223> the tender <4698> mercy <1656> of our God

<2316>; whereby <3739> the dayspring <0395> from on high <5311>

hath visited <1980> us,

79 To give <2014> light <2014> to them that sit <2521> in

darkness <4655> and [in] the shadow <4639> of death <2288>, to

guide <2720> our feet <4228> into <1519> the way <3598> of peace

<1515>.

80 And the child <3813> grew <0837>, and waxed <2901> strong

<2901> in spirit <4151>, and was in the deserts <2048> till

<2193> the day <2250> of his shewing <0323> unto Israel <2474>.

Luke 2

1. And it came <1096> to pass in those <1565> days <2250>, that

there went <1831> out a decree <1378> from Caesar <2541>

Augustus <0828>, that all <3956> the world <3625> should be

taxed <0582>.

2 ([And] this <3778> taxing <0583> was first <4413> made

<1096> when Cyrenius <2958> was governor <2230> of Syria <4947>.)

3 And all <3956> went <4198> to be taxed <0582>, every <1538>

one into <1519> his own <2398> city <4172>.

4 And Joseph <2501> also <2532> went <0305> up from Galilee

<1056>, out of the city <4172> of Nazareth <3478>, into <1519>

Judaea <2449>, unto the city <4172> of David <1138>, which

<3748> is called <2564> Bethlehem <0965>; (because he was of the

house <3624> and lineage <3965> of David <1138>:)

5 To be taxed <0582> with Mary <3137> his espoused <3423> wife

<1135>, being <5607> great with child <1471>.

6 And so it was, that, while they were there <1563>, the days

<2250> were accomplished <4130> that she should be delivered

<5088>.

7 And she brought <5088> forth <5088> her firstborn <4416> son

<5207>, and wrapped <4683> him in swaddling <4683> clothes

<4683>, and laid <0347> him in a manger <5336>; because <1360>

there was no <3756> room <5117> for them in the inn <2646>.

8. And there were in the same <0846> country <5561> shepherds

<4166> abiding <0063> in the field <0068>, keeping <5442> watch

<5438> over <1909> their flock <4167> by night <3571>.

9 And, lo <2400>, the angel <0032> of the Lord <2962> came

<2186> upon them, and the glory <1391> of the Lord <2962> shone

<4034> round <4034> about <4034> them: and they were sore <3173>

afraid <5399>.

10 And the angel <0032> said <2036> unto them, Fear <5399> not:

for, behold <2400>, I bring <2097> you good <2097> tidings

<2097> of great <3173> joy <5479>, which <3748> shall be to all

<3956> people <2992>.

11 For unto you is born <5088> this <4594> day <4594> in the

city <4172> of David <1138> a Saviour <4990>, which <3739> is

Christ <5547> the Lord <2962>.

12 And this <5124> [shall be] a sign <4592> unto you; Ye shall

find <2147> the babe <1025> wrapped <4683> in swaddling <4683>

clothes <4683>, lying <2749> in a manger <5336>.

13 And suddenly <1810> there was with the angel <0032> a

multitude <4128> of the heavenly <3770> host <4756> praising

<0134> God <2316>, and saying <3004>,

14 Glory <1391> to God <2316> in the highest <5310>, and on

<1909> earth <1093> peace <1515>, good <2107> will <2107> toward

<1722> men <0444>.

15 And it came <1096> to pass, as the angels <0032> were gone

<0565> away <0565> from them into <1519> heaven <3772>, the

shepherds <4166> said <2036> one <0240> to another <0240>, Let

us now <1211> go <1330> even unto Bethlehem <0965>, and see

<1492> this <5124> thing <4487> which <3588> is come <1096> to

pass, which <3588> the Lord <2962> hath made <1107> known <1107>

unto us.

16 And they came <2064> with haste <4692>, and found <0429>

Mary <3137>, and Joseph <2501>, and the babe <1025> lying <2749>

in a manger <5336>.

17 And when they had seen <1492> [it], they made <1232> known

<1232> abroad <1232> the saying <4487> which <3588> was told

<2980> them concerning <4012> this <5127> child <3813>.

18 And all <3956> they that heard <0191> [it] wondered <2296>

at <4012> those things which <3588> were told <2980> them by the

shepherds <4166>.

19 But Mary <3137> kept <4933> all <3956> these <5023> things

<4487>, and pondered <4820> [them] in her heart <2588>.

20 And the shepherds <4166> returned <1994>, glorifying <1392>

and praising <0134> God <2316> for all <3956> the things that

they had heard <0191> and seen <1492>, as it was told <2980>

unto them.

21. And when <3753> eight <3638> days <2250> were accomplished

<4130> for the circumcising <4059> of the child <3813>, his name

<3686> was called <2564> JESUS <2424>, which <3588> was so named

<2564> of the angel <0032> before <4253> he was conceived <4815>

in the womb <2836>.

22 And when <3753> the days <2250> of her purification <2512>

according <2596> to the law <3551> of Moses <3475> were

accomplished <4130>, they brought <0321> him to Jerusalem <2414>,

to present <3936> [him] to the Lord <2962>;

23 (As it is written <1125> in the law <3551> of the Lord

<2962>, Every <3956> male <0730> that openeth <1272> the womb

<3388> shall be called <2564> holy <0040> to the Lord <2962>;)

24 And to offer <1325> a sacrifice <2378> according <2596> to

that which is said <2046> in the law <3551> of the Lord <2962>,

A pair <2201> of turtledoves <5167>, or <2228> two <1417> young

<3502> pigeons <4058>.

25. And, behold <2400>, there was a man <0444> in Jerusalem

<2419>, whose <3739> name <3686> [was] Simeon <4826>; and the

same <3778> man <0444> [was] just <1342> and devout <2126>,

waiting <4327> for the consolation <3874> of Israel <2474>: and

the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151> was upon him.

26 And it was revealed <5537> unto him by the Holy <0040>

Ghost <4151>, that he should not see <1492> death <2288>, before

<2228> he had seen <1492> the Lord's <2962> Christ <5547>.

27 And he came <2064> by the Spirit <4151> into <1519> the

temple <2411>: and when <3588> the parents <1118> brought <1521>

in the child <3813> Jesus <2424>, to do <4160> for him after

<2596> the custom <1480> of the law <3551>,

28 Then <2532> took <1209> he him up in his arms <0043>, and

blessed <2127> God <2316>, and said <2036>,

29 Lord <1203>, now <3568> lettest <0630> thou thy servant

<1401> depart <0630> in peace <1515>, according <2596> to thy

word <4487>:

30 For mine <3450> eyes <3788> have seen <1492> thy salvation

<4992>,

31 Which <3739> thou hast prepared <2090> before <2596> the

face <4383> of all <3956> people <2992>;

32 A light <5457> to lighten <0602> the Gentiles <1484>, and

the glory <1391> of thy people <2992> Israel <2474>.

33 And Joseph <2501> and his mother <3384> marvelled <2296> at

<1909> those <3588> things which were spoken <2980> of him.

34 And Simeon <4826> blessed <2127> them, and said <2036> unto

Mary <3137> his mother <3384>, Behold <2400>, this <3778>

[child] is set <2749> for the fall <4431> and rising <0386>

again <0386> of many <4183> in Israel <2474>; and for a sign

<4592> which shall be spoken <0483> against <0483>;

35 (Yea, a sword <4501> shall pierce <1330> through <1330> thy

own soul <5590> also <2532>,) that the thoughts <1261> of many

<4183> hearts <2588> may be revealed <0601>.

36 And there was one Anna <0451>, a prophetess <4398>, the

daughter <2364> of Phanuel <5323>, of the tribe <5443> of Aser

<0768>: she was of a great <4183> age <2250>, and had lived

<2198> with an husband <0435> seven <2033> years <2094> from her

virginity <3932>;

37 And she [was] a widow <5503> of about <5613> fourscore

<3589> and four <5064> years <2094>, which <3739> departed

<0868> not from the temple <2411>, but served <3000> [God] with

fastings <3521> and prayers <1162> night <3571> and day <2250>.

38 And she coming <2186> in that instant <5610> gave <0437>

thanks <0437> likewise <0437> unto the Lord <2962>, and spake

<2980> of him to all <3956> them that looked <4327> for

redemption <3085> in Jerusalem <2419>.

39 And when <5613> they had performed <5055> all <0537> things

according <2596> to the law <3551> of the Lord <2962>, they

returned <5290> into <1519> Galilee <1056>, to their own city

<4172> Nazareth <3478>.

40 And the child <3813> grew <0837>, and waxed <2901> strong

<2901> in spirit <4151>, filled <4137> with wisdom <4678>: and

the grace <5485> of God <2316> was upon him.

41. Now <2532> his parents <1118> went <4198> to Jerusalem

<2419> every <2596> year <2094> at the feast <1859> of the

passover <3957>.

42 And when <3753> he was twelve <1427> years <2094> old, they

went <0305> up to Jerusalem <2414> after <2596> the custom

<1485> of the feast <1859>.

43 And when they had fulfilled <5048> the days <2250>, as they

returned <5290>, the child <3816> Jesus <2424> tarried <5278>

behind <5278> in Jerusalem <2419>; and Joseph <2501> and his

mother <3384> knew <1097> not [of it].

44 But they, supposing <3543> him to have been <1511> in the

company <4923>, went <2064> a day's <2250> journey <3598>; and

they sought <0327> him among <1722> [their] kinsfolk <4773> and

acquaintance <1110>.

45 And when they found <2147> him not, they turned <5290> back

<5290> again <5290> to Jerusalem <2419>, seeking <2212> him.

46 And it came <1096> to pass, that after <3326> three <5140>

days <2250> they found <2147> him in the temple <2411>, sitting

<2516> in the midst <3319> of the doctors <1320>, both <2532>

hearing <0191> them, and asking <1905> them questions <1905>.

47 And all <3956> that heard <0191> him were astonished <1839>

at <1909> his understanding <4907> and answers <0612>.

48 And when they saw <1492> him, they were amazed <1605>: and

his mother <3384> said <2036> unto him, Son <5043>, why <5101>

hast thou thus <3779> dealt <4160> with us? behold <2400>, thy

father <3962> and I have sought <2212> thee sorrowing <3600>.

49 And he said <2036> unto them, How <5101> is it that ye

sought <2212> me? wist <1492> ye not that I must <1163> be about

<1722> my Father's <3962> business?

50 And they understood <4920> not the saying <4487> which

<3739> he spake <2980> unto them.

51 And he went <2597> down <2597> with them, and came <2064>

to Nazareth <3478>, and was subject <5293> unto them: but his

mother <3384> kept <1301> all <3956> these <5023> sayings <4487>

in her heart <2588>.

52 And Jesus <2424> increased <4298> in wisdom <4678> and

stature <2244>, and in favour <5485> with God <2316> and man

<0444>.

Luke 3

1. Now <1161> in the fifteenth <4003> year <2094> of the reign

<2231> of Tiberius <5086> Caesar <2541>, Pontius <4194> Pilate

<4091> being governor <2230> of Judaea <2449>, and Herod <2264>

being tetrarch <5075> of Galilee <1056>, and his brother <0080>

Philip <5376> tetrarch <5075> of Ituraea <2484> and of the

region <5561> of Trachonitis <5139>, and Lysanias <3078> the

tetrarch <5075> of Abilene <0009>,

2 Annas <0452> and Caiaphas <2533> being <1909> the high

<0749> priests <0749>, the word <4487> of God <2316> came <1096>

unto John <2491> the son <5027> of Zacharias <2197> in the

wilderness <2048>.

3 And he came <2064> into <1519> all <3956> the country <4066>

about <4066> Jordan <2446>, preaching <2784> the baptism <0908>

of repentance <3341> for the remission <0859> of sins <0266>;

4 As it is written <1125> in the book <0976> of the words

<3056> of Esaias <2268> the prophet <4396>, saying <3004>, The

voice <5456> of one crying <0994> in the wilderness <2048>,

Prepare <2090> ye the way <3598> of the Lord <2962>, make <4160>

his paths <5147> straight <2117>.

5 Every <3956> valley <5327> shall be filled <4137>, and every

<3956> mountain <3735> and hill <1015> shall be brought <5013>

low <5013>; and the crooked <4646> shall be made <1519> straight

<2117>, and the rough <5138> ways <3598> [shall be] made <1519>

smooth <3006>;

6 And all <3956> flesh <4561> shall see <3700> the salvation

<4992> of God <2316>.

7 Then <3767> said <3004> he to the multitude <3793> that came

<1607> forth <1607> to be baptized <0907> of him, O generation

<1081> of vipers <2191>, who <5101> hath warned <5263> you to

flee <5343> from the wrath <3709> to come <3195>?

8 Bring <4160> forth <4160> therefore <3767> fruits <2590>

worthy <0514> of repentance <3341>, and begin <0756> not to say

<3004> within <1722> yourselves <1438>, We have <2192> Abraham

<0011>to [our] father <3962>: for I say <3004> unto you, That

God <2316> is able <1410> of these <5130> stones <3037> to raise

<1453> up children <5043> unto Abraham <11>.

9 And now <2236> also <2532> the axe <0513> is laid <2749>

unto the root <4491> of the trees <1186>: every <3956> tree

<1186> therefore <3767> which bringeth <4160> not forth <4160>

good <2570> fruit <2590> is hewn <1581> down <1581>, and cast

<0906> into <1519> the fire <4442>.

10 And the people <3793> asked <1905> him, saying <3004>, What

<5101> shall we do <4160> then <3767>?

11 He answereth <0611> and saith <3004> unto them, He that

hath <2192> two <1417> coats <5509>, let him impart <3330> to

him that hath <2192> none <3361>; and he that hath <2192> meat

<1033>, let him do <4160> likewise <3668>.

12 Then <1161> came <2064> also <2532> publicans <5052> to be

baptized <0907>, and said <2036> unto him, Master <1320>, what

<5101> shall we do <4160>?

13 And he said <2036> unto them, Exact <4238> no <3367> more

<4119> than <3844> that which is appointed <1299> you.

14 And the soldiers <4754> likewise <2532> demanded <1905> of

him, saying <3004>, And what <5101> shall we do <4160>? And he

said <2036> unto them, Do <1286> violence <1286> to no <3367>

man <3367>, neither <3366> accuse <4811> [any] falsely; and be

content <0714> with your <5216> wages <3800>.

15. And as the people <2992> were in expectation <4328>, and

all <3956> men mused <1260> in their hearts <2588> of John

<2491>, whether <3379> he were the Christ <5547>, or not;

16 John <2491> answered <0611>, saying <3004> unto [them] all

<0537>, I indeed <3303> baptize <0907> you with water <5204>;

but one mightier <2478> than <3844> I cometh <2064>, the latchet

<2438> of whose <3739> shoes <5266> I am <1510> not worthy

<2425> to unloose <3089>: he shall baptize <0907> you with the

Holy <0040> Ghost <4151> and with fire <4442>:

17 Whose <3739> fan <4425> [is] in his hand <5495>, and he

will throughly <1245> purge <1245> his floor <0257>, and will

gather <4863> the wheat <4621> into <1519> his garner <0596>;

but the chaff <0892> he will burn <2618> with fire <4442>

unquenchable <0762>.

18 And many <4183> other <2087> things in his exhortation

<3870> preached <2097> he unto the people <2992>.

19 But Herod <2264> the tetrarch <5076>, being reproved <1651>

by him for Herodias <2266> his brother <0080> Philip's <5376>

wife <1135>, and for all <3956> the evils <4190> which <3739>

Herod <2264> had done <4160>,

20 Added <4369> yet <2596> this <5124> above <1909> all <3956>,

that he shut <2623> up John <2491> in prison <5438>.

21. Now <1161> when <3588> all <0537> the people <2992> were

baptized <0907>, it came <1096> to pass, that Jesus <2424> also

being baptized <0907>, and praying <4336>, the heaven <3772> was

opened <0455>,

22 And the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151> descended <2597> in a

bodily <4984> shape <1491> like <5616> a dove <4058> upon him,

and a voice <5456> came <1096> from heaven <3772>, which said

<3004>, Thou art <1488> my beloved <0027> Son <5207>; in thee I

am well <2106> pleased <2106>.

23 And Jesus <2424> himself <0846> began <0756> to be about

<5616> thirty <5144> years <2094> of age, being <5607> (as was

Luke 4

1. And Jesus <2424> being full <4134> of the Holy <0040> Ghost

<4151> returned <5290> from Jordan <2446>, and was led <0071> by

the Spirit <4151> into <1519> the wilderness <2048>,

2 Being forty <5062> days <2250> tempted <3985> of the devil

<1228>. And in those <1565> days <2250> he did eat <5315>

nothing <3762>: and when they were ended <4931>, he afterward

<5305> hungered <3983>.

3 And the devil <1228> said <2036> unto him, If <1487> thou be

the Son <5207> of God <2316>, command <2036> this <5129> stone

<3037> that it be made <1096> bread <0740>.

4 And Jesus <2424> answered <0611> him, saying <3004>, It is

written <1125>, That man <0444> shall not live <2198> by bread

<0740> alone <3441>, but by every <3956> word <4487> of God

<2316>.

5 And the devil <1228>, taking <0321> him up into <1519> an

high <5308> mountain <3735>, shewed <1166> unto him all <3956>

the kingdoms <0932> of the world <3625> in a moment <4743> of

time <5550>.

6 And the devil <1228> said <2036> unto him, All <0537> this

<5026> power <1849> will I give <1325> thee, and the glory

<1391> of them: for that is delivered <3860> unto me; and to

whomsoever <1437> I will <2309> I give <1325> it.

7 If <1437> thou therefore <3767> wilt worship <1799> me, all

<3956> shall be thine <4675>.

8 And Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said <2036> unto him,

Get <5217> thee behind <3694> me, Satan <4567>: for it is

written <1125>, Thou shalt worship <4352> the Lord <2962> thy

God <2316>, and him only <3441> shalt thou serve <3000>.

9 And he brought <0071> him to Jerusalem <2419>, and set

<2476> him on <1909> a pinnacle <4419> of the temple <2411>, and

said <2036> unto him, If <1487> thou be the Son <5207> of God

<2316>, cast <0906> thyself <4572> down <2736> from hence <1782>:

10 For it is written <1125>, He shall give his angels <0032>

charge <1781> over <4012> thee, to keep <1314> thee:

11 And in [their] hands <5495> they shall bear <0142> thee up,

lest <3379> at <3379> any <3379> time <3379> thou dash <4350>

thy foot <4228> against <4314> a stone <3037>.

12 And Jesus <2424> answering <0611> said <2036> unto him, It

is said <2046>, Thou shalt not tempt <1598> the Lord <2962> thy

God <2316>.

13 And when the devil <1228> had ended <4931> all <3956> the

temptation <3986>, he departed <0868> from him for a season

<2540>.

14. And Jesus <2424> returned <5290> in the power <1411> of the

Spirit <4151> into <1519> Galilee <1056>: and there went <1831>

out a fame <5345> of him through <2596> all <3650> the region

<4066> round <4066> about <4066>.

15 And he taught <1321> in their synagogues <4864>, being

glorified <1392> of all <3956>.

16 And he came <2064> to Nazareth <3478>, where <3757> he had

been brought <5142> up: and, as his custom <1486> was, he went

<1525> into <1519> the synagogue <4864> on <1722> the sabbath

<4521> day <2250>, and stood <0450> up for to read <0314>.

17 And there was delivered <1929> unto him the book <0975> of

the prophet <4396> Esaias <2268>. And when he had opened <0380>

the book <0975>, he found <2147> the place <5117> where <3757>

it was written <1125>,

18 The Spirit <4151> of the Lord <2962> [is] upon me, because

<1752> he hath anointed <5548> me to preach <2097> the gospel

<2097> to the poor <4434>; he hath sent <0649> me to heal <2390>

the brokenhearted <2588>, to preach <2784> deliverance <0859> to

the captives <0164>, and recovering <0309> of sight <0309> to

the blind <5185>, to set <0649> at <1722> liberty <0859> them

that are bruised <2352>,

19 To preach <2784> the acceptable <1184> year <1763> of the

Lord <2962>.

20 And he closed <4428> the book <0975>, and he gave <0591>

[it] again <0591> to the minister <5257>, and sat <2523> down

<2523>. And the eyes <3788> of all <3956> them that were in the

synagogue <4864> were fastened <0816> on him.

21 And he began <0756> to say <3004> unto them, This <4594>

day <4594> is this <3778> scripture <1124> fulfilled <4137> in

your <5216> ears <3775>.

22 And all <3956> bare <3140> him witness <3140>, and wondered

<2296> at <1909> the gracious <5485> words <3056> which <3588>

proceeded <1607> out of his mouth <4750>. And they said <3004>,

Is not this <3778> Joseph's <2501> son <5207>?

23 And he said <2036> unto them, Ye will surely <3843> say

<2046> unto me this <5026> proverb <3850>, Physician <2395>,

heal <2323> thyself <4572>: whatsoever <3745> we have heard

<0191> done <1096> in Capernaum <2584>, do <4160> also <2532>

here <5602> in thy country <3968>.

24 And he said <2036>, Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, No

<3762> prophet <4396> is accepted <1184> in his own country

<3968>.

25 But I tell <3004> you of a truth <0225>, many <4183> widows

<5503> were in Israel <2474> in the days <2250> of Elias <2243>,

when <3753> the heaven <3772> was shut <2808> up three <5140>

years <2094> and six <1803> months <3376>, when <5613> great

<3173> famine <3042> was throughout <1909> all <3956> the land

<1093>;

26 But unto none <3762> of them was Elias <2243> sent <3992>,

save <1508> unto Sarepta <4558>, [a city] of Sidon <4605>, unto

a woman <1135> [that was] a widow <5503>.

27 And many <4183> lepers <3015> were in Israel <2474> in the

time <1909> of Eliseus <1666> the prophet <4396>; and none

<3762> of them was cleansed <2511>, saving <1508> Naaman <3497>

the Syrian <4948>.

28 And all <3956> they in the synagogue <4864>, when they

heard <0191> these <5023> things, were filled <4130> with wrath

<2372>,

29 And rose <0450> up, and thrust <1544> him out of the city

<4172>, and led <0071> him unto the brow <3790> of the hill

<3735> whereon <3739> their city <4172> was built <3618>, that

they might cast <2630> him down <2630> headlong <2630>.

30 But he passing <1330> through <1223> the midst <3319> of

them went <4198> his way,

31. And came <2718> down <2718> to Capernaum <2584>, a city

<4172> of Galilee <1056>, and taught <1321> them on <1722> the

sabbath <4521> days.

32 And they were astonished <1605> at <1909> his doctrine

<1322>: for his word <3056> was with power <1849>.

33 And in the synagogue <4864> there was a man <0444>, which

had <2192> a spirit <4151> of an unclean <0169> devil <1140>,

and cried <0349> out with a loud <3173> voice <5456>,

34 Saying <3004>, Let <1439> [us] alone <1439>; what <5101>

have we to do with thee, [thou] Jesus <2424> of Nazareth <3478>?

art thou come <2064> to destroy <0622> us? I know <1492> thee

who <5101> thou art <1488>; the Holy <0040> One of God <2316>.

35 And Jesus <2424> rebuked <2008> him, saying <3004>, Hold

<5392> thy peace <5392>, and come <1831> out of him. And when

the devil <1140> had thrown <4496> him in the midst <3319>, he

came <1831> out of him, and hurt <0984> him not.

36 And they were all <3956> amazed <2285>, and spake <4814>

among <4314> themselves <0240>, saying <3004>, What <5101> a

word <3056> [is] this <3778>! for with authority <1849> and

power <1411> he commandeth <2004> the unclean <0169> spirits

<4151>, and they come <1831> out.

37 And the fame <2279> of him went <1607> out into <1519>

every <3956> place <5117> of the country <4066> round <4066>

about <4066>.

38 And he arose <0450> out of the synagogue <4864>, and

entered <1525> into <1519> Simon's <4613> house <3614>. And

Simon's <4613> wife's <3994> mother <3994> was taken <4912> with

a great <3173> fever <4446>; and they besought <2065> him for

her.

39 And he stood <2186> over <1883> her, and rebuked <2008> the

fever <4446>; and it left <0863> her: and immediately <3916> she

arose <0450> and ministered <1247> unto them.

40 Now <1161> when the sun <2246> was setting <1416>, all

<3956> they that had <2192> any sick <0770> with divers <4164>

diseases <3554> brought <0071> them unto him; and he laid <2007>

his hands <5495> on <2007> every <1538> one <1520> of them, and

healed <2323> them.

41 And devils <1140> also <2532> came <1831> out of many

<4183>, crying <2896> out, and saying <3004>, Thou art <1488>

Christ <5547> the Son <5207> of God <2316>. And he rebuking

<2008> [them] suffered <1439> them not to speak <2980>: for they

knew that he was Christ <5547>.

42 And when it was day <2250>, he departed <1831> and went

<4198> into <1519> a desert <2048> place <5117>: and the people

<3793> sought <2212> him, and came <2064> unto him, and stayed

<2722> him, that he should not depart <4198> from them.

43 And he said <2036> unto them, I must <1163> preach <2097>

the kingdom <0932> of God <2316> to other <2087> cities <4172>

also <2532>: for therefore <5124> am I sent <0649>.

44 And he preached <2784> in the synagogues <4864> of Galilee

<1056>.

Luke 5

1. And it came <1096> to pass, that, as the people <3793>

pressed <1945> upon him to hear <0191> the word <3056> of God

<2316>, he stood <2476> by the lake <3041> of Gennesaret <1082>,

2 And saw <1492> two <1417> ships <4143> standing <2476> by

the lake <3041>: but the fishermen <0231> were gone <0576> out

of them, and were washing <0637> [their] nets <1350>.

3 And he entered <1684> into <1519> one <1520> of the ships

<4143>, which <3739> was Simon's <4613>, and prayed <2065> him

that he would thrust <1877> out a little <3641> from the land

<1093>. And he sat <2523> down <2523>, and taught <1321> the

people <3793> out of the ship <4143>.

4 Now <1161> when <5613> he had left <3973> speaking <2980>,

he said <2036> unto Simon <4613>, Launch <1877> out into <1519>

the deep <0899>, and let <5465> down <5465> your <5216> nets

<1350> for a draught <0061>.

5 And Simon <4613> answering <0611> said <2036> unto him,

Master <1988>, we have toiled <2873> all <3650> the night <3571>,

and have taken <2983> nothing <3762>: nevertheless <1161> at

<1909> thy word <4487> I will let <5465> down <5465> the net

<1350>.

6 And when they had this <5124> done <4160>, they inclosed

<4788> a great <4183> multitude <4128> of fishes <2486>: and

their net <1350> brake <1284>.

7 And they beckoned <2656> unto [their] partners <3353>, which

<3588> were in the other <2087> ship <4143>, that they should

come <2064> and help <4815> them. And they came <2064>, and

filled <4130> both <0297> the ships <4143>, so <5620> that they

began to sink <1036>.

8 When Simon <4613> Peter <4074> saw <1492> [it], he fell

<4363> down at <4363> Jesus <2424>' knees <1119>, saying <3004>,

Depart <1831> from me; for I am <1510> a sinful <0268> man

<0435>, O Lord <2962>.

9 For he was astonished <2285>, and all <3956> that were with

him, at <1909> the draught <0061> of the fishes <2486> which

<3739> they had taken <4815>:

10 And so <3668> [was] also <2532> James <2385>, and John

<2491>, the sons <5207> of Zebedee <2199>, which <3739> were

partners <2844> with Simon <4613>. And Jesus <2424> said <2036>

unto Simon <4613>, Fear <5399> not; from henceforth <3568> thou

shalt catch <2221> men <0444>.

11 And when they had brought <2609> their ships <4143> to land

<1093>, they forsook <0863> all <0537>, and followed <0190> him.

12. And it came <1096> to pass, when <3588> he was in a certain

<1520> city <4172>, behold <2400> a man <0435> full <4134> of

leprosy <3014>: who <2532> seeing <1492> Jesus <2424> fell

<4098> on <1909> [his] face <4383>, and besought <1189> him,

saying <3004>, Lord <2962>, if <1437> thou wilt <2309>, thou

canst <1410> make <2511> me clean <2511>.

13 And he put <1614> forth <1614> [his] hand <5495>, and

touched <0680> him, saying <2036>, I will <2309>: be thou clean

<2511>. And immediately <2112> the leprosy <3014> departed

<0565> from him.

14 And he charged <3853> him to tell <2036> no <3367> man

<3367>: but go <0565>, and shew <1166> thyself <4572> to the

priest <2409>, and offer <4374> for thy cleansing <2512>,

according as Moses <3475> commanded <4367>, for a testimony

<3142> unto them.

15 But so much <3123> the more <3123> went <1330> there a fame

<3056> abroad <1330> of him: and great <4183> multitudes <3793>

came <4905> together <4905> to hear <0191>, and to be healed

<2323> by him of their infirmities <0769>.

16 And he withdrew <5298> himself into <1722> the wilderness

<2048>, and prayed <4336>.

17. And it came <1096> to pass on <1722> a certain <1520> day

<2250>, as he was teaching <1321>, that there were Pharisees

<5330> and doctors <3547> of the law <3547> sitting <2521> by,

which <3739> were come <2064> out of every <3956> town <2968> of

Galilee <1056>, and Judaea <2449>, and Jerusalem <2419>: and the

power <1411> of the Lord <2962> was [present] to heal <2390>

them.

18 And, behold <2400>, men <0435> brought <5342> in a bed

<2825> a man <0444> which <3739> was taken with a palsy <3886>:

and they sought <2212> [means] to bring <1533> him in, and to

lay <5087> [him] before <1799> him.

19 And when they could not find <2147> by what <4169> [way]

they might bring <1533> him in because <1223> of the multitude

<3793>, they went <0305> upon the housetop <1430>, and let

<2524> him down <2524> through <1223> the tiling <2766> with

[his] couch <2826> into <1519> the midst <3319> before <1715>

Jesus <2424>.

20 And when he saw <1492> their faith <4102>, he said <2036>

unto him, Man <0444>, thy sins <0266> are forgiven <0863> thee.

21 And the scribes <1122> and the Pharisees <5330> began

<0756> to reason <1260>, saying <3004>, Who <5101> is this

<3778> which <3739> speaketh <2980> blasphemies <0988>? Who

<5101> can <1410> forgive <0863> sins <0266>, but God <2316>

alone <3441>?

22 But when Jesus <2424> perceived <1921> their thoughts

<1261>, he answering <0611> said <2036> unto them, What <5101>

reason <1260> ye in your <5216> hearts <2588>?

23 Whether <5101> is easier <2123>, to say <2036>, Thy sins

<0266> be forgiven <0863> thee; or <2228> to say <2036>, Rise

<1453> up and walk <4043>?

24 But that ye may know <1492> that the Son <5207> of man

<0444> hath <2192> power <1849> upon earth <1093> to forgive

<0863> sins <0266>, (he said <2036> unto the sick <3885> of the

palsy <3886>,) I say <3004> unto thee, Arise <1453>, and take

<0142> up thy couch <2826>, and go <4198> into <1519> thine

<4675> house <3624>.

25 And immediately <3916> he rose <0450> up before <1799> them,

and took <0142> up that whereon <3739> he lay <2621>, and

departed <0565> to his own house <3624>, glorifying <1392> God

<2316>.

26 And they were all <0537> amazed <2983>, and they glorified

<1392> God <2316>, and were filled <4130> with fear <5401>,

saying <3004>, We have seen <1492> strange <3861> things to day

<4594>.

27. And after <3326> these <5023> things he went <1831> forth

<1831>, and saw <2300> a publican <5057>, named <3686> Levi

<3018>, sitting <2521> at <1909> the receipt <5058> of custom

<5058>: and he said <2036> unto him, Follow <0190> me.

28 And he left <2641> all <0537>, rose <0450> up, and followed

<0190> him.

29 And Levi <3018> made <4160> him a great <3173> feast <1403>

in his own house <3614>: and there was a great <4183> company

<3793> of publicans <5052> and of others <0243> that sat <2621>

down <2621> with them.

30 But their scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330> murmured

<1111> against <4314> his disciples <3101>, saying <3004>, Why

<1302> do ye eat <2068> and drink <4095> with publicans <5052>

and sinners <0268>?

31 And Jesus <2424> answering <0611> said <2036> unto them,

They that are whole <5198> need <5532> not a physician <2395>;

but they that are sick <2560>.

32 I came <2064> not to call <2564> the righteous <1342>, but

sinners <0268> to repentance <3341>.

33 And they said <2036> unto him, Why <1302> do the disciples

<3101> of John <2491> fast <3522> often <4437>, and make <4160>

prayers <1162>, and likewise <3668> [the disciples] of the

Pharisees <5330>; but thine <4674> eat <2068> and drink <4095>?

34 And he said <2036> unto them, Can <1410> ye make <4160> the

children <5207> of the bridechamber <3567> fast <3522>, while

<3739> the bridegroom <3566> is with them?

35 But the days <2250> will come <2064>, when <3752> the

bridegroom <3566> shall be taken <0522> away <0851> from them,

and then <5119> shall they fast <3522> in those <1565> days

<2250>.

36 And he spake <3004> also <2532> a parable <3850> unto them;

No <3762> man <3762> putteth <1911> a piece <1915> of a new

<2537> garment <2440> upon an old <3820>; if <1490> otherwise

<1490>, then both <2532> the new <2537> maketh <4977> a rent

<4977>, and the piece <1915> that was [taken] out of the new

<2537> agreeth <4856> not with the old <3820>.

37 And no <3762> man <3762> putteth <0906> new <3501> wine

<3631> into <1519> old <3820> bottles <0779>; else <1490> the

new <3501> wine <3631> will burst <4486> the bottles <0779>, and

be spilled <1632>, and the bottles <0779> shall perish <0622>.

38 But new <3501> wine <3631> must be put <0906> into <1519>

new <2537> bottles <0779>; and both <0297> are preserved <4933>.

39 No <3762> man <3762> also <2532> having drunk <4095> old

<3820> [wine] straightway <2112> desireth <2309> new <2537>: for

he saith <3004>, The old <3820> is better <5543>.

Luke 6

1. And it came <1096> to pass on <1722> the second <1207>

sabbath <4521> after <1207> the first <1207>, that he went

<1279> through <1223> the corn <4702> fields; and his disciples

<3101> plucked <5089> the ears <4719> of corn <4719>, and did

eat <2068>, rubbing <5597> [them] in [their] hands <5495>.

2 And certain <5100> of the Pharisees <5330> said <2036> unto

them, Why <5101> do <4160> ye that which <3739> is not lawful

<1832> to do <4160> on <1722> the sabbath <4521> days?

3 And Jesus <2424> answering <0611> them said <2036>, Have ye

not read <0314> so <3761> much <3761> as this <5124>, what

<3739> David <1138> did <4160>, when <3698> himself <0846> was

an hungred <3983>, and they which <3739> were with him;

4 How <5613> he went <1525> into <1519> the house <3624> of

God <2316>, and did take <2983> and eat <5315> the shewbread

<4286>, and gave <1325> also <2532> to them that were with him;

which it is not lawful <1832> to eat <5315> but for the priests

<2409> alone <3441>?

5 And he said <3004> unto them, That the Son <5207> of man

<0444> is Lord <2962> also <2532> of the sabbath <4521>.

6 And it came <1096> to pass also <2532> on <1722> another

<2087> sabbath <4521>, that he entered <1525> into <1519> the

synagogue <4864> and taught <1321>: and there <1563> was a man

<0444> whose <0846> right <1188> hand <5495> was withered <3584>.

7 And the scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330> watched <3906>

him, whether <1487> he would heal <2323> on <1722> the sabbath

<4521> day; that they might find <2147> an accusation <2724>

against him.

8 But he knew <1492> their thoughts <1261>, and said <2036> to

the man <0444> which <3739> had <2192> the withered <3584> hand

<5495>, Rise <1453> up, and stand <2476> forth in the midst

<3319>. And he arose <0450> and stood <2476> forth.

9 Then <3767> said <2036> Jesus <2424> unto them, I will ask

<1905> you one <5100> thing; Is it lawful <1832> on the sabbath

<4521> days to do <0015> good <0015>, or <2228> to do <2554>

evil <2554>? to save <4982> life <5590>, or <2228> to destroy

<0622> [it]?

10 And looking <4017> round about <4017> upon them all <3956>,

he said <2036> unto the man <0444>, Stretch <1614> forth <1614>

thy hand <5495>. And he did <4160> so <3779>: and his hand

<5495> was restored <0600> whole <5199> as the other <0243>.

11 And they were filled <4130> with madness <0454>; and

communed <1255> one <0240> with another <0240> what <5101> they

might do <4160> to Jesus <2424>.

12. And it came <1096> to pass in those <5025> days <2250>,

that he went <1831> out into <1519> a mountain <3735> to pray

<4336>, and continued <1273> all <1273> night <1273> in prayer

<4335> to God <2316>.

13 And when <3753> it was day <2250>, he called <4377> [unto

him] his disciples <3101>: and of them he chose <1586> twelve

<1427>, whom <3739> also <2532> he named <3687> apostles <0652>;

14 Simon <4613>, (whom he also <2532> named <3687> Peter

<4074>,) and Andrew <0406> his brother <0080>, James <2385> and

John <2491>, Philip <5376> and Bartholomew <0918>,

15 Matthew <3156> and Thomas <2381>, James <2385> the [son] of

Alphaeus <0256>, and Simon <4613> called <2564> Zelotes <2208>,

16 And Judas <2455> [the brother] of James <2385>, and Judas

<2455> Iscariot <2469>, which <3739> also <2532> was the traitor

<4273>.

17 And he came <2597> down <2597> with them, and stood <2476>

in the plain <3977>, and the company <3793> of his disciples

<3101>, and a great <4183> multitude <4128> of people <2992> out

of all <3956> Judaea <2449> and Jerusalem <2419>, and from the

sea <3882> coast <3882> of Tyre <5184> and Sidon <4605>, which

<3739> came <2064> to hear <0191> him, and to be healed <2390>

of their diseases <3554>;

18 And they that were vexed <3791> with unclean <0169> spirits

<4151>: and they were healed <2323>.

19 And the whole <3956> multitude <3793> sought <2212> to

touch <0680> him: for there went <1831> virtue <1411> out of him,

and healed <2390> [them] all <3956>.

20. And he lifted <1869> up his eyes <3788> on <1519> his

disciples <3101>, and said <3004>, Blessed <3107> [be ye] poor

<4434>: for yours <5212> is the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>.

21 Blessed <3107> [are ye] that hunger <3983> now <3568>: for

ye shall be filled <5526>. Blessed <3107> [are ye] that weep

<2799> now <3568>: for ye shall laugh <1070>.

22 Blessed <3107> are ye, when <3752> men <0444> shall hate

<3404> you, and when <3752> they shall separate <0873> you [from

their company], and shall reproach <3679> [you], and cast <1544>

out your <5216> name <3686> as evil <4190>, for the Son <5207>

of man's <0444> sake <1752>.

23 Rejoice <5463> ye in that day <2250>, and leap <4640> for

joy: for, behold <2400>, your <5216> reward <3408> [is] great

<4183> in heaven <3772>: for in the like <5024> manner did

<4160> their fathers <3962> unto the prophets <4396>.

24 But woe <3759> unto you that are rich <4145>! for ye have

received <0568> your <5216> consolation <3874>.

25 Woe <3759> unto you that are full <1705>! for ye shall

hunger <3983>. Woe <3759> unto you that laugh <1070> now <3568>!

for ye shall mourn <3996> and weep <2799>.

26 Woe <3759> unto you, when <3752> all <3956> men <0444>

shall speak <2036> well <2573> of you! for so <5623> did <4160>

their fathers <3962> to the false <5578> prophets <5578>.

27. But I say <3004> unto you which hear <0191>, Love <0025>

your <5216> enemies <2190>, do <4160> good <2573> to them which

<3588> hate <3404> you,

28 Bless <2127> them that curse <2672> you, and pray <4336>

for them which despitefully <1908> use <1908> you.

29 And unto him that smiteth <5180> thee on <1909> the [one]

cheek <4600> offer <3930> also <2532> the other <0243>; and him

that taketh <0142> away <0142> thy cloke <2440> forbid <2967>

not [to take thy] coat <5509> also <2532>.

30 Give <1325> to every <3956> man that asketh <0154> of thee;

and of him that taketh <0142> away <0142> thy goods <4674> ask

<0523> [them] not again <0523>.

31 And as ye would <2309> that men <0444> should do <4160> to

you, do <4160> ye also <2532> to them likewise <3668>.

32 For if <1487> ye love <0025> them which love <0025> you,

what <4169> thank <5485> have <2076> ye? for sinners <0268> also

<2532> love <0025> those <3588> that love <0025> them.

33 And if <1437> ye do good <0015> to them which do <0015>

good <0015> to you, what <4169> thank <5485> have <2076> ye? for

sinners <0268> also <2532> do <4160> even <2532> the same <0846>.

34 And if <1437> ye lend <1155> [to them] of whom <3739> ye

hope <1679> to receive <0618>, what <4169> thank <5485> have

<2076> ye? for sinners <0268> also <2532> lend <1155> to sinners

<0268>, to receive <0618> as much <2470> again <0618>.

35 But love <0025> ye your <5216> enemies <2190>, and do

<0015> good <0015>, and lend <1155>, hoping <0560> for nothing

<3367> again <0560>; and your <5216> reward <3408> shall be

great <4183>, and ye shall be the children <5207> of the Highest

<5310>: for he is kind <5543> unto the unthankful <0884> and

[to] the evil <4190>.

36 Be ye therefore <3767> merciful <3629>, as your <5216>

Father <3962> also <2532> is merciful <3629>.

37. Judge <2919> not, and ye shall not be judged <2919>:

condemn <2613> not, and ye shall not be condemned <2613>:

forgive <0630>, and ye shall be forgiven <0630>:

38 Give <1325>, and it shall be given <1325> unto you; good

<2570> measure <3358>, pressed <4085> down, and shaken <4531>

together, and running <5240> over <5240>, shall men give <1325>

into <1519> your <5216> bosom <2859>. For with the same <0846>

measure <3358> that ye mete <3354> withal it shall be measured

<0488> to you again <0488>.

39 And he spake <2036> a parable <3850> unto them, Can <1410>

the blind <5185> lead <3594> the blind <5185>? shall they not

both <0297> fall <4098> into <1519> the ditch <0999>?

40 The disciple <3101> is not above <5228> his master <1320>:

but every <3956> one that is perfect <2675> shall be as his

master <1320>.

41 And why <5101> beholdest <0991> thou the mote <2595> that

is in thy brother's <0080> eye <3788>, but perceivest <2657> not

the beam <1385> that is in thine <2398> own <2398> eye <3788>?

42 Either <2228> how <4459> canst <1410> thou say <3004> to

thy brother <0080>, Brother <0080>, let <0863> me pull <1544>

out the mote <2595> that is in thine <4675> eye <3788>, when

thou thyself <0846> beholdest <0991> not the beam <1385> that is

in thine <4675> own eye <3788>? Thou hypocrite <5273>, cast

<1544> out first <4412> the beam <1385> out of thine <4675> own

eye <3788>, and then <5119> shalt thou see <1227> clearly <1227>

to pull <1544> out the mote <2595> that is in thy brother's

<0080> eye <3788>.

43 For a good <2570> tree <1186> bringeth <4160> not forth

<4160> corrupt <4550> fruit <2590>; neither <3761> doth a

corrupt <4550> tree <1186> bring <4160> forth <4160> good <2570>

fruit <2590>.

44 For every <1538> tree <1186> is known <1097> by his own

<2398> fruit <2590>. For of thorns <0173> men do not gather

<4816> figs <4810>, nor <3761> of a bramble <0942> bush <0942>

gather <5166> they grapes <4718>.

45 A good <0018> man <0444> out of the good <0018> treasure

<2344> of his heart <2588> bringeth <4393> forth <4393> that

which is good <0018>; and an evil <4190> man <0444> out of the

evil <4190> treasure <2344> of his heart <2588> bringeth <4393>

forth <4393> that which is evil <4190>: for of the abundance

<4051> of the heart <2588> his mouth <4750> speaketh <2980>.

46 And why <5101> call <2564> ye me, Lord <2962>, Lord <2962>,

and do <4160> not the things which <3739> I say <3004>?

47 Whosoever <3588> cometh <2064> to me, and heareth <0191> my

sayings <3056>, and doeth <4160> them, I will shew <5263> you to

whom <5101> he is like <3664>:

48 He is like <3664> a man <0444> which <3739> built <3618> an

house <3614>, and digged <4626> deep <0900>, and laid <5087> the

foundation <2310> on <1909> a rock <4073>: and when the flood

<4132> arose <1096>, the stream <4215> beat <4366> vehemently

<4366> upon that house <3614>, and could <2480> not shake <4531>

it: for it was founded <2311> upon a rock <4073>.

49 But he that heareth <0191>, and doeth <4160> not, is like

<3664> a man <0444> that without <5565> a foundation <2310>

built <3618> an house <3614> upon the earth <1093>; against

<4366> which <3739> the stream <4215> did beat <4366> vehemently

<4366>, and immediately <2112> it fell <4098>; and the ruin

<4485> of that house <3614> was great <3173>.

Luke 7

1. Now <1161> when <1893> he had ended <4137> all <3956> his

sayings <4487> in the audience <0189> of the people <2992>, he

entered <1525> into <1519> Capernaum <2584>.

2 And a certain <5100> centurion's <1543> servant <1401>, who

<3739> was dear <1784> unto him, was sick <2560>, and ready

<3195> to die <5053>.

3 And when he heard <0191> of Jesus <2424>, he sent <0649>

unto him the elders <4245> of the Jews <2453>, beseeching <2065>

him that he would come <2064> and heal <1295> his servant <1401>.

4 And when they came <3854> to Jesus <2424>, they besought

<3870> him instantly <4705>, saying <3004>, That he was worthy

<0514> for whom <3739> he should do <3930> this <5124>:

5 For he loveth <0025> our nation <1484>, and he hath built

<3618> us a synagogue <4864>.

6 Then <1161> Jesus <2424> went <4198> with them. And when he

was now <2236> not far <3112> from the house <3614>, the

centurion <1543> sent <3992> friends <5384> to him, saying

<3004> unto him, Lord <2962>, trouble <4460> not thyself: for I

am <1510> not worthy <2425> that thou shouldest enter <1525>

under <5259> my roof <4721>:

7 Wherefore <1352> neither <3761> thought I myself <1683>

worthy <0515> to come <2064> unto thee: but say <2036> in a word

<3056>, and my servant <3816> shall be healed <2390>.

8 For I also <2532> am <1510> a man <0444> set <5021> under

<5259> authority <1849>, having <2192> under <5259> me soldiers

<4757>, and I say <3004> unto one <5129>, Go <4198>, and he

goeth <4198>; and to another <0243>, Come <2064>, and he cometh

<2064>; and to my servant <1401>, Do <4160> this <5124>, and he

doeth <4238> [it].

9 When Jesus <2424> heard <0191> these <5023> things, he

marvelled <2296> at him, and turned <4762> him about <4762>, and

said <2036> unto the people <3793> that followed <0190> him, I

say <3004> unto you, I have not found <2147> so <5118> great

<5118> faith <4102>, no <3761>, not in Israel <2474>.

10 And they that were sent <3992>, returning <5290> to the

house <3624>, found <2147> the servant <1401> whole <5198> that

had been sick <0770>.

11. And it came <1096> to pass the day <2250> after <1836>,

that he went <4198> into <1519> a city <4172> called <2564> Nain

<3484>; and many <2425> of his disciples <3101> went <4848> with

him, and much <4183> people <3793>.

12 Now <1161> when <5613> he came <1448> nigh <1448> to the

gate <4439> of the city <4172>, behold <2400>, there was a dead

<2348> man carried <1580> out, the only <3439> son <5207> of his

mother <3384>, and she was a widow <5503>: and much <2425>

people <3793> of the city <4172> was with her.

13 And when the Lord <2962> saw <1492> her, he had compassion

<4697> on <1909> her, and said <2036> unto her, Weep <2799> not.

14 And he came <4334> and touched <0680> the bier <4673>: and

they that bare <0941> [him] stood <2476> still <2476>. And he

said <2036>, Young <3495> man <3495>, I say <3004> unto thee,

Arise <1453>.

15 And he that was dead <3498> sat <0339> up, and began <0756>

to speak <2980>. And he delivered <1325> him to his mother

<3384>.

16 And there came <2983> a fear <5401> on all <0537>: and they

glorified <1392> God <2316>, saying <3004>, That a great <3173>

prophet <4396> is risen <1453> up among <1722> us; and, That God

<2316> hath visited <1980> his people <2992>.

17 And this <3778> rumour <3056> of him went <1831> forth

<1831> throughout <1722> all <3650> Judaea <2449>, and

throughout <1722> all <3956> the region <4066> round <4066>

about <4066>.

18 And the disciples <3101> of John <2491> shewed <0518> him

of all <3956> these <5130> things.

19. And John <2491> calling <4341> [unto him] two <1417> of his

disciples <3101> sent [them] to Jesus <2424>, saying <3004>, Art

<1488> thou he that should come <2064>? or <2228> look <4328> we

for another <0243>?

20 When the men <0435> were come <3854> unto him, they said

<2036>, John <2491> Baptist <0910> hath sent <0649> us unto thee,

saying <3004>, Art <1488> thou he that should come <2064>? or

<2228> look <4328> we for another <0243>?

21 And in that same <0846> hour <5610> he cured <2323> many

<4183> of [their] infirmities <3554> and plagues <3148>, and of

evil <4190> spirits <4151>; and unto many <4183> [that were]

blind <5185> he gave <5483> sight <0991>.

22 Then <2532> Jesus <2424> answering <0611> said <2036> unto

them, Go <4198> your way, and tell <0518> John <2491> what

<3739> things ye have seen <1492> and heard <0191>; how <3754>

that the blind <5185> see <0308>, the lame <5560> walk <4043>,

the lepers <3015> are cleansed <2511>, the deaf <2974> hear

<0191>, the dead <3498> are raised <1453>, to the poor <4434>

the gospel <2097> is preached <2097>.

23 And blessed is [he], whosoever <1437> shall not be offended

<4624> in me.

24 And when the messengers <0032> of John <2491> were departed

<0565>, he began <0756> to speak <3004> unto the people <3793>

concerning <4012> John <2491>, What <5101> went <1831> ye out

into <1519> the wilderness <2048> for to see <2300>? A reed

<2563> shaken <4531> with the wind <0417>?

25 But what <5101> went <1831> ye out for to see <1492>? A man

<0444> clothed <0294> in soft <3120> raiment <2440>? Behold

<2400>, they which are gorgeously <1741> apparelled <2441>, and

live <5225> delicately <5172>, are in kings <0933>' courts.

26 But what <5101> went <1831> ye out for to see <1492>? A

prophet <4396>? Yea <3483>, I say <3004> unto you, and much

<4055> more <4055> than <3844> a prophet <4396>.

27 This <3778> is [he], of whom <3739> it is written <1125>,

Behold <2400>, I send <0649> my messenger <0032> before <4253>

thy face <4383>, which <3739> shall prepare <2680> thy way

<3598> before <1715> thee.

28 For I say <3004> unto you, Among <1722> those that are born

<1084> of women <1135> there is not a greater <3187> prophet

<4396> than <3844> John <2491> the Baptist <0910>: but he that

is least <3398> in the kingdom <0932> of God <2316> is greater

<3187> than <3844> he.

29 And all <3956> the people <2992> that heard <0191> [him],

and the publicans <5052>, justified <1344> God <2316>, being

baptized <0907> with the baptism <0908> of John <2491>.

30 But the Pharisees <5330> and lawyers <3544> rejected <0114>

the counsel <1012> of God <2316> against <1519> themselves

<1438>, being not baptized <0907> of him.

31 And the Lord <2962> said <2036>, Whereunto <5101> then

<3767> shall I liken <3666> the men <0444> of this <5026>

generation <1074>? and to what <5101> are they like <3664>?

32 They are like <3664> unto children <3813> sitting <2521> in

the marketplace <0058>, and calling <4377> one <0240> to another

<0240>, and saying <3004>, We have piped <0832> unto you, and ye

have not danced <3738>; we have mourned <2354> to you, and ye

have not wept <2799>.

33 For John <2491> the Baptist <0910> came <2064> neither

<3383> eating <2068> bread <0740> nor <3383> drinking <4095>

wine <3631>; and ye say <3004>, He hath <2192> a devil <1140>.

34 The Son <5207> of man <0444> is come <2064> eating <2068>

and drinking <4095>; and ye say <3004>, Behold <2400> a

gluttonous <5314> man <0444>, and a winebibber <3630>, a friend

<5384> of publicans <5052> and sinners <0268>!

35 But wisdom <4678> is justified <1344> of all <3956> her

children <5043>.

36. And one <5100> of the Pharisees <5330> desired <2065> him

that he would eat <5315> with him. And he went <1525> into

<1519> the Pharisee's <5330> house <3614>, and sat <0347> down

<0347> to meat.

37 And, behold <2400>, a woman <1135> in the city <4172>,

which <3748> was a sinner <0268>, when she knew <1921> that

[Jesus] sat <0345> at <0345> meat in the Pharisee's <5330> house

<3614>, brought <2865> an alabaster <0211> box <0211> of

ointment <3464>,

38 And stood <2476> at <3844> his feet <4228> behind <3694>

[him] weeping <2799>, and began <0756> to wash <1026> his feet

<4228> with tears <1144>, and did wipe <1591> [them] with the

hairs <2359> of her head <2776>, and kissed <2705> his feet

<4228>, and anointed <0218> [them] with the ointment <3464>.

39 Now <1161> when the Pharisee <5330> which <3588> had bidden

<2564> him saw <1492> [it], he spake <2036> within <1722>

himself <1438>, saying <3004>, This <3778> man, if <1487> he

were a prophet <4396>, would have known <1097> who <5101> and

what <4217> manner <4217> of woman <1135> [this <3588> is] that

toucheth <0680> him: for she is a sinner <0268>.

40 And Jesus <2424> answering <0611> said <2036> unto him,

Simon <4613>, I have <2192> somewhat <5100> to say <2036> unto

thee. And he saith <5346>, Master <1320>, say <2036> on.

41 There was a certain <5100> creditor <1157> which had <1510>

two <1417> debtors <5533>: the one <1520> owed <3784> five

<4001> hundred <4001> pence <1220>, and the other <2087> fifty

<4004>.

42 And when they had <2192> nothing <3361> to pay <0591>, he

frankly <5435> forgave <5483> them both <0297>. Tell <2036> me

therefore <3767>, which <5101> of them will love <0025> him most

<4119>?

43 Simon <4613> answered <0611> and said <2036>, I suppose

<5274> that [he], to whom <3739> he forgave <5483> most <4119>.

And he said <2036> unto him, Thou hast rightly <3723> judged

<2919>.

44 And he turned <4762> to the woman <1135>, and said <5346>

unto Simon <4613>, Seest <0991> thou this <5026> woman? I

entered <1525> into <1519> thine <4675> house <3614>, thou

gavest <1325> me no <3756> water <5204> for my feet <4228>: but

she hath washed <1026> my feet <4228> with tears <1144>, and

wiped <1591> [them] with the hairs <2359> of her head <2776>.

45 Thou gavest <1325> me no <3756> kiss <5370>: but this

<3778> woman since <0575> the time I came <1525> in hath not

ceased <1257> to kiss <2705> my feet <4228>.

46 My head <2776> with oil <1637> thou didst not anoint <0218>:

but this <3778> woman hath anointed <0218> my feet <4228> with

ointment <3464>.

47 Wherefore <5484> I say <3004> unto thee, Her sins <0266>,

which <3588> are many <4183>, are forgiven <0863>; for she loved

<0025> much <4183>: but to whom <3739> little <3641> is forgiven

<0863>, [the same] loveth <0025> little <3641>.

48 And he said <2036> unto her, Thy sins <0266> are forgiven

<0863>.

49 And they that sat <4873> at <0345> meat with him began

<0756> to say <3004> within <1722> themselves <1438>, Who <5101>

is this <3778> that forgiveth <0863> sins <0266> also <2532>?

50 And he said <2036> to the woman <1135>, Thy faith <4102>

hath saved <4982> thee; go <4198> in peace <1515>.

Luke 8

1. And it came <1096> to pass afterward <2517>, that he went

<1353> throughout <2596> every <2596> city <4172> and village

<2968>, preaching <2784> and shewing the glad <2097> tidings

<2097> of the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>: and the twelve

<1427> [were] with him,

2 And certain <5100> women <1135>, which <3739> had been

healed <2390> of evil <4190> spirits <4151> and infirmities

<0769>, Mary <3137> called <2564> Magdalene <3094>, out of whom

<3739> went <1831> seven <2033> devils <1140>,

3 And Joanna <2489> the wife <1135> of Chuza <5529> Herod's

<2264> steward <2012>, and Susanna <4677>, and many <4183>

others <2087>, which <3748> ministered <1247> unto him of their

substance <5224>.

4. And when much <4183> people <3793> were gathered <4896>

together <4896>, and were come <1975> to him out of every <2596>

city <4172>, he spake <2036> by a parable <3850>:

5 A sower <4687> went <1831> out to sow <4687> his seed <4703>:

and as he sowed <4687>, some <3588> fell <4098> by the way

<3598> side <3844>; and it was trodden <2662> down <2662>, and

the fowls <4071> of the air <3772> devoured <2719> it.

6 And some <2087> fell <4098> upon a rock <4073>; and as soon

as it was sprung <5453> up, it withered <3583> away, because

<1223> it lacked <2192> moisture <2429>.

7 And some <2087> fell <4098> among <3319> thorns <0173>; and

the thorns <0173> sprang <4855> up with it, and choked <0638> it.

8 And other <2087> fell <4098> on <1519> good <0018> ground

<1093>, and sprang <5453> up, and bare <4160> fruit <2590> an

hundredfold <1542>. And when he had said <3004> these <5023>

things, he cried <5455>, He that hath <2192> ears <3775> to hear

<0191>, let him hear <0191>.

9 And his disciples <3101> asked <1905> him, saying <3004>,

What <5101> might this <3778> parable <3850> be?

10 And he said <2036>, Unto you it is given <1325> to know

<1097> the mysteries <3466> of the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>:

but to others <3062> in parables <3850>; that seeing <0991> they

might not see <0991>, and hearing <0191> they might not

understand <4920>.

11 Now <1161> the parable <3850> is this <3778>: The seed

<4703> is the word <3056> of God <2316>.

12 Those <3588> by the way <3598> side <3844> are they that

hear <0191>; then <1534> cometh <2064> the devil <1228>, and

taketh <0142> away <0142> the word <3056> out of their hearts

<2588>, lest <3361> they should believe <4100> and be saved

<4982>.

13 They on <1909> the rock <4073> [are they], which <3739>,

when <3752> they hear <0191>, receive <1209> the word <3056>

with joy <5479>; and these <3778> have <2192> no <3756> root

<4491>, which <3739> for a while <2540> believe <4100>, and in

time <2540> of temptation <3986> fall <0868> away <0868>.

14 And that which fell <4098> among <1519> thorns <0173> are

they, which, when they have heard <0191>, go <4198> forth <4198>,

and are choked <4846> with cares <3308> and riches <4149> and

pleasures <2237> of [this <3588>] life <0979>, and bring <5062>

no <3756> fruit <5062> to perfection <5052>.

15 But that on <1722> the good <2570> ground <1093> are they,

which <3748> in an honest <2570> and good <0018> heart <2588>,

having heard <0191> the word <3056>, keep <2722> [it], and bring

<2592> forth fruit <2592> with patience <5281>.

16 No <3762> man <3762>, when he hath lighted <0681> a candle

<3088>, covereth <2572> it with a vessel <4632>, or <2228>

putteth <5087> [it] under <5270> a bed <2825>; but setteth

<2007> [it] on <1909> a candlestick <3087>, that they which

enter <1531> in may see <0991> the light <5457>.

17 For nothing <3756> is secret <2927>, that shall not be made

<1096> manifest <5318>; neither <3761> [any thing] hid <0614>,

that shall not be known <1097> and come <2064> abroad <5318>.

18 Take heed <0991> therefore <3767> how <4459> ye hear <0191>:

for whosoever <0302> hath <2192>, to him shall be given <1325>;

and whosoever <0302> hath <2192> not, from him shall be taken

<0142> even <2532> that which <3739> he seemeth <1380> to have

<2192>.

19 Then <1161> came <3854> to him [his] mother <3384> and his

brethren <0080>, and could <1410> not come <4940> at <1519> him

for the press <3793>.

20 And it was told <0518> him [by certain] which said <3004>,

Thy mother <3384> and thy brethren <0080> stand <2476> without

<1854>, desiring <2309> to see <1492> thee.

21 And he answered <0611> and said <2036> unto them, My mother

<3384> and my brethren <0080> are these <3778> which <3588> hear

<0191> the word <3056> of God <2316>, and do <4160> it.

22. Now <2532> it came <1096> to pass on <1722> a certain

<1520> day <2250>, that he went <1684> into <1519> a ship <4143>

with his disciples <3101>: and he said <2036> unto them, Let us

go <1330> over <1330> unto the other <4008> side <4008> of the

lake <3041>. And they launched <0321> forth <0321>.

23 But as they sailed <4126> he fell asleep <0879>: and there

came <2597> down <2597> a storm <2978> of wind <0417> on <1519>

the lake <3041>; and they were filled <4845> [with water], and

were in jeopardy <2793>.

24 And they came <4334> to him, and awoke <1326> him, saying

<3004>, Master <1988>, master <1988>, we perish <0622>. Then

<1161> he arose <1453>, and rebuked <2008> the wind <0417> and

the raging <2830> of the water <5204>: and they ceased <3973>,

and there was a calm <1055>.

25 And he said <2036> unto them, Where <4226> is your <5216>

faith <4102>? And they being afraid <5399> wondered <2296>,

saying <3004> one <0240> to another <0240>, What <0686> manner

<0686> of man is this <3778>! for he commandeth <2004> even

<2532> the winds <0417> and water <5204>, and they obey <5219>

him.

26 And they arrived <2668> at <1519> the country <5561> of the

Gadarenes <1046>, which <3748> is over <0495> against <0495>

Galilee <1056>.

27 And when he went <1831> forth <1831> to land <1093>, there

met <5221> him out of the city <4172> a certain <5100> man

<0435>, which <3739> had <2192> devils <1140> long <2425> time

<5550>, and ware <1737> no <3756> clothes <2440>, neither <3756>

abode <3306> in [any] house <3614>, but in the tombs <3418>.

28 When he saw <1492> Jesus <2424>, he cried <0349> out, and

fell <4363> down before <4363> him, and with a loud <3173> voice

<5456> said <2036>, What <5101> have I to do with thee, Jesus

<2424>, [thou] Son <5207> of God <2316> most <5310> high <5310>?

I beseech <1189> thee, torment <0928> me not.

29 (For he had commanded <3853> the unclean <0169> spirit

<4151> to come <1831> out of the man <0444>. For oftentimes

<5550> it had caught <4884> him: and he was kept <5442> bound

<1196> with chains <0254> and in fetters <3976>; and he brake

<1284> the bands <1199>, and was driven <1643> of the devil

<1142> into <1519> the wilderness <2048>.)

30 And Jesus <2424> asked <1905> him, saying <3004>, What

<5101> is thy name <3686>? And he said <2036>, Legion <3003>:

because <3754> many <4183> devils <1140> were entered <1525>

into <1519> him.

31 And they besought <3870> him that he would not command

<2004> them to go <0565> out into <1519> the deep <0012>.

32 And there was there <1563> an herd <0034> of many <2425>

swine <5519> feeding <1006> on <1722> the mountain <3735>: and

they besought <3870> him that he would suffer <2010> them to

enter <1525> into <1519> them. And he suffered <2010> them.

33 Then <1161> went <1831> the devils <1140> out of the man

<0444>, and entered <1525> into <1519> the swine <5519>: and the

herd <0034> ran <3729> violently down <2596> a steep <2911>

place into <1519> the lake <3041>, and were choked <0638>.

34 When they that fed <1006> [them] saw <1492> what <3588> was

done <1096>, they fled <5343>, and went <0565> and told <0518>

[it] in the city <4172> and in the country <0068>.

35 Then <1161> they went <1831> out to see <1492> what <3588>

was done <1096>; and came <2064> to Jesus <2424>, and found

<2147> the man <0444>, out of whom <3739> the devils <1140> were

departed <1831>, sitting <2521> at <3844> the feet <4228> of

Jesus <2424>, clothed <2439>, and in his right <4993> mind

<4993>: and they were afraid <5399>.

36 They also <2532> which saw <1492> [it] told <0518> them by

what <4459> means <4459> he that was possessed <1139> of the

devils <1139> was healed <4982>.

37 Then <2532> the whole <0537> multitude <4128> of the

country <4066> of the Gadarenes <1046> round <4066> about <4066>

besought <2065> him to depart <0565> from them; for they were

taken <4912> with great <3173> fear <5401>: and he went <1684>

up into <1519> the ship <4143>, and returned <5290> back <5290>

again <5290>.

38 Now <1161> the man <0435> out of whom <3739> the devils

<1140> were departed <1831> besought <1189> him that he might be

with him: but Jesus <2424> sent <0630> him away <0630>, saying

<3004>,

39 Return <5290> to thine <4675> own house <3624>, and shew

<1334> how <3745> great <3745> things God <2316> hath done

<4160> unto thee. And he went <0565> his way, and published

<2784> throughout <2596> the whole <3650> city <4172> how <3745>

great <3745> things Jesus <2424> had done <4160> unto him.

40. And it came <1096> to pass, that, when <3588> Jesus <2424>

was returned <5290>, the people <3793> [gladly] received <0588>

him: for they were all <3956> waiting <4328> for him.

41 And, behold <2400>, there came <2064> a man <0435> named

<3686> Jairus <2383>, and he was a ruler <0758> of the synagogue

<4864>: and he fell <4098> down at <3844> Jesus <2424>' feet

<4228>, and besought <3870> him that he would come <1525> into

<1519> his house <3624>:

42 For he had <1510> one only <3439> daughter <2364>, about

<5613> twelve <1427> years <2094> of age, and she lay a dying

<0599>. But as he went <5217> the people <3793> thronged <4846>

him.

43 And a woman <1135> having <1722> an issue <4511> of blood

<0129> twelve <1427> years <2094>, which <3748> had spent <4321>

all <3956> her living <0979> upon physicians <2395>, neither

<3756> could <2480> be healed <2323> of any <3762>,

44 Came <4334> behind <3693> [him], and touched <0680> the

border <2899> of his garment <2440>: and immediately <3916> her

issue <4511> of blood <0129> stanched <2476>.

45 And Jesus <2424> said <2036>, Who <5101> touched <0680> me?

When all <3956> denied <0720>, Peter <4074> and they that were

with him said <2036>, Master <1988>, the multitude <3793> throng

<4912> thee and press <0598> [thee], and sayest <2036> thou, Who

<5101> touched <0680> me?

46 And Jesus <2424> said <2036>, Somebody <5100> hath touched

<0680> me: for I perceive <1097> that virtue <1411> is gone

<1831> out of me.

47 And when the woman <1135> saw <1492> that she was not hid

<2990>, she came <2064> trembling <5141>, and falling <4363>

down before <4363> him, she declared <0518> unto him before

<1799> all <3956> the people <2992> for what <3739> cause <0156>

she had touched <0680> him, and how <5613> she was healed <2390>

immediately <3916>.

48 And he said <2036> unto her, Daughter <2364>, be of good

comfort <2293>: thy faith <4102> hath made <4982> thee whole

<4982>; go <4198> in peace <1515>.

49 While he yet <2089> spake <2980>, there cometh <2064> one

<5100> from the ruler <0752> of the synagogue's <0752> [house],

saying <3004> to him, Thy daughter <2364> is dead <2348>;

trouble <4460> not the Master <1320>.

50 But when Jesus <2424> heard <0191> [it], he answered <0611>

him, saying <3004>, Fear <5399> not: believe <4100> only <3440>,

and she shall be made <4982> whole <4982>.

51 And when he came <1525> into <1519> the house <3614>, he

suffered <0863> no <3762> man <3762> to go <1525> in, save

<1508> Peter <4074>, and James <2385>, and John <2491>, and the

father <3962> and the mother <3384> of the maiden <3816>.

52 And all <3956> wept <2799>, and bewailed <2875> her: but he

said <2036>, Weep <2799> not; she is not dead <0599>, but

sleepeth <2518>.

53 And they laughed <2606> him to scorn <2606>, knowing <1492>

that she was dead <0599>.

54 And he put <1544> them all <3956> out, and took <2902> her

by the hand <5495>, and called <5455>, saying <3004>, Maid

<3816>, arise <1453>.

55 And her spirit <4151> came <1994> again <1994>, and she

arose <0450> straightway <3916>: and he commanded <1299> to give

<1325> her meat <5315>.

56 And her parents <1118> were astonished <1839>: but he

charged <3853> them that they should tell <2036> no <3367> man

<3367> what <3588> was done <1096>.

Luke 9

1. Then <1161> he called <4779> his twelve <1427> disciples

<3101> together <4779>, and gave <1325> them power <1411> and

authority <1849> over <1909> all <3956> devils <1140>, and to

cure <2323> diseases <3554>.

2 And he sent <0649> them to preach <2784> the kingdom <0932>

of God <2316>, and to heal <2390> the sick <0770>.

3 And he said <2036> unto them, Take <0142> nothing <3367> for

[your <3588>] journey <3598>, neither <3383> staves <4464>, nor

<3383> scrip <4082>, neither <3383> bread <0740>, neither <3383>

money <0694>; neither <3383> have <2192> two <1417> coats <5509>

apiece <0303>.

4 And whatsoever <0302> house <3614> ye enter <1525> into

<1519>, there <1563> abide <3306>, and thence <1564> depart

<1831>.

5 And whosoever <0302> will not receive <1209> you, when ye go

<1831> out of that city <4172>, shake <0660> off <0660> the very

<2532> dust <2868> from your <5216> feet <4228> for a testimony

<3142> against <1909> them.

6 And they departed <1831>, and went <1330> through <2596> the

towns <2968>, preaching <2097> the gospel <2097>, and healing

<2323> every <3837> where <3837>.

7 Now <1161> Herod <2264> the tetrarch <5076> heard <0191> of

all <3956> that was done <1096> by him: and he was perplexed

<1280>, because <1223> that it was said <3004> of some <5100>,

that John <2491> was risen <1453> from the dead <3498>;

8 And of some <5100>, that Elias <2243> had appeared <5316>;

and of others <0243>, that one <1520> of the old <0744> prophets

<4396> was risen <0450> again <0450>.

9 And Herod <2264> said <2036>, John <2491> have I beheaded

<0607>: but who <5101> is this <3778>, of whom <3739> I hear

<0191> such <3634> things? And he desired <2212> to see <1492>

him.

10. And the apostles <0652>, when they were returned <5290>,

told <1334> him all <3745> that they had done <4160>. And he

took <3880> them, and went <5298> aside <5298> privately <2398>

into <1519> a desert <2048> place <5117> belonging to the city

<4172> called <2564> Bethsaida <0966>.

11 And the people <3793>, when they knew <1097> [it], followed

<0190> him: and he received <1209> them, and spake <2980> unto

them of the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>, and healed <2390> them

that had <2192> need <5532> of healing <2322>.

12 And when the day <2250> began <0756> to wear <2827> away,

then <1161> came <4334> the twelve <1427>, and said <2036> unto

him, Send <0630> the multitude <3793> away <0630>, that they may

go <0565> into <1519> the towns <2968> and country <0068> round

<2943> about <2945>, and lodge <2647>, and get <2147> victuals

<1979>: for we are here <5602> in a desert <2048> place <5117>.

13 But he said <2036> unto them, Give <1325> ye them to eat

<5315>. And they said <2036>, We have <2076> no <3756> more

<4119> but five <4002> loaves <0740> and two <1417> fishes

<2486>; except <1509> we should go <4198> and buy <0059> meat

<1033> for all <3956> this <5126> people <2992>.

14 For they were about <5616> five <4000> thousand <4000> men

<0435>. And he said <2036> to his disciples <3101>, Make <2625>

them sit <2625> down <2625> by fifties <4004> in a company

<2828>.

15 And they did <4160> so <3779>, and made <0347> them all

<0537> sit <0347> down <0347>.

16 Then <1161> he took <2983> the five <4002> loaves <0740>

and the two <1417> fishes <2486>, and looking <0308> up to

heaven <3772>, he blessed <2127> them, and brake <2622>, and

gave <1325> to the disciples <3101> to set <3908> before <3908>

the multitude <3793>.

17 And they did eat <5315>, and were all <3956> filled <5526>:

and there was taken <0142> up of fragments <2801> that remained

<4052> to them twelve <1427> baskets <2894>.

18. And it came <1096> to pass, as he was alone <2651> praying

<4336>, his disciples <3101> were with him: and he asked <1905>

them, saying <3004>, Whom <5101> say <3004> the people <3793>

that I am <1511>?

19 They answering <0611> said <2036>, John <2491> the Baptist

<0910>; but some <0243> [say <2036>], Elias <2243>; and others

<0243> [say], that one <5100> of the old <0744> prophets <4396>

is risen <0450> again <0450>.

20 He said <2036> unto them, But whom <5101> say <3004> ye

that I am <1511>? Peter <4074> answering <0611> said <2036>, The

Christ <5547> of God <2316>.

21 And he straitly charged <2008> them, and commanded <3853>

[them] to tell <2036> no <3367> man <3367> that thing;

22 Saying <2036>, The Son <5207> of man <0444> must <1163>

suffer <3958> many <4183> things, and be rejected <0593> of the

elders <4245> and chief <0749> priests <0749> and scribes <1122>,

and be slain <0615>, and be raised <1453> the third <5154> day

<2250>.

23 And he said <3004> to [them] all <3956>, If <1487> any

<5100> [man] will <2309> come <2064> after <3694> me, let him

deny <0533> himself <1438>, and take <0142> up his cross <4716>

daily <2250>, and follow <0190> me.

24 For whosoever <0302> will <2309> save <4982> his life

<5590> shall lose <0622> it: but whosoever <0302> will lose

<0622> his life <5590> for my sake <1752>, the same <3778> shall

save <4982> it.

25 For what <5101> is a man <0444> advantaged <5623>, if he

gain <2770> the whole <3650> world <2889>, and lose <0622>

himself <1438>, or <2228> be cast <2210> away <2210>?

26 For whosoever <0302> shall be ashamed <1870> of me and of

my words <3056>, of him shall the Son <5207> of man <0444> be

ashamed <1870>, when <3752> he shall come <2064> in his own

glory <1391>, and [in his] Father's <3962>, and of the holy

<0040> angels <0032>.

27 But I tell <3004> you of a truth <0230>, there be some

<5100> standing <2476> here <5602>, which <3739> shall not taste

<1089> of death <2288>, till <2193> they see <1492> the kingdom

<0932> of God <2316>.

28. And it came <1096> to pass about <5616> an eight <3638>

days <2250> after <3326> these <5128> sayings <3056>, he took

<3880> Peter <4074> and John <2491> and James <2385>, and went

<0305> up into <1519> a mountain <3735> to pray <4336>.

29 And as he prayed <4336>, the fashion <1491> of his

countenance <4383> was altered <2087>, and his raiment <2441>

[was] white <3022> [and] glistering <1823>.

30 And, behold <2400>, there talked <4814> with him two <1417>

men <0435>, which <3748> were Moses <3475> and Elias <2243>:

31 Who <3739> appeared <3700> in glory <1391>, and spake

<3004> of his decease <1841> which <3739> he should <3195>

accomplish <4137> at <1722> Jerusalem <2419>.

32 But Peter <4074> and they that were with him were heavy

<0916> with sleep <5258>: and when they were awake <1235>, they

saw <1492> his glory <1391>, and the two <1417> men <0435> that

stood <4921> with him.

33 And it came <1096> to pass, as they departed <1316> from

him, Peter <4074> said <2036> unto Jesus <2424>, Master <1988>,

it is good <2570> for us to be here <5602>: and let us make

<4160> three <5140> tabernacles <4633>; one <3391> for thee, and

one <3391> for Moses <3475>, and one <3391> for Elias <2243>:

not knowing <1492> what <3739> he said <3004>.

34 While he thus <5023> spake <3004>, there came <1096> a

cloud <3507>, and overshadowed <1982> them: and they feared

<5399> as they entered <1525> into <1519> the cloud <3507>.

35 And there came <1096> a voice <5456> out of the cloud

<3507>, saying <3004>, This <3778> is my beloved <0027> Son

<5207>: hear <0191> him.

36 And when <3588> the voice <5456> was past <1096>, Jesus

<2424> was found <2147> alone <3441>. And they kept <4601> [it]

close <4601>, and told <0518> no <3762> man <3762> in those

<1565> days <2250> any <3762> of those things which <3739> they

had seen <3708>.

37. And it came <1096> to pass, that on <1722> the next <1836>

day <2250>, when they were come <2718> down <2778> from the hill

<3735>, much <4183> people <3793> met <4876> him.

38 And, behold <2400>, a man <0435> of the company <3793>

cried <0310> out, saying <3004>, Master <1320>, I beseech <1189>

thee, look <1614> upon my son <5207>: for he is mine <3427> only

<3439> child <3439>.

39 And, lo <2400>, a spirit <4151> taketh <2983> him, and he

suddenly <1810> crieth <2896> out; and it teareth <4682> him

that he foameth <0876> again <3326>, and bruising <4937> him

hardly <3425> departeth <0672> from him.

40 And I besought <1189> thy disciples <3101> to cast <1544>

him out; and they could <1410> not.

41 And Jesus <2424> answering <0611> said <2036>, O faithless

<0571> and perverse <1294> generation <1074>, how <2193> long

<2193> shall I be with you, and suffer <0430> you? Bring <4317>

thy son <5207> hither <5602>.

42 And as he was yet <2089> a coming <4334>, the devil <1140>

threw <4952> him down, and tare <4952> [him]. And Jesus <2424>

rebuked <2008> the unclean <0169> spirit <4151>, and healed

<2390> the child <3816>, and delivered <0591> him again <0591>

to his father <3962>.

43. And they were all <3956> amazed <1605> at <1909> the mighty

<3168> power <3168> of God <2316>. But while they wondered

<2296> every <3956> one <3956> at <1909> all <3956> things which

<3739> Jesus <2424> did <4160>, he said <2036> unto his

disciples <3101>,

44 Let these <5128> sayings <3056> sink <5087> down into

<1519> your <5216> ears <3775>: for the Son <5207> of man <0444>

shall be delivered <3860> into <1519> the hands <5495> of men

<0444>.

45 But they understood <0050> not this <5127> saying <4487>,

and it was hid <3871> from them, that they perceived <0143> it

not: and they feared <5399> to ask <2065> him of that saying

<4487>.

46 Then <1161> there arose <1525> a reasoning <1261> among

<1722> them, which <5101> of them should be greatest <3187>.

47 And Jesus <2424>, perceiving <1492> the thought <1261> of

their heart <2588>, took <1949> a child <3813>, and set <2476>

him by him,

48 And said <2036> unto them, Whosoever <1437> shall receive

<1209> this <5124> child <3813> in my name <3686> receiveth

<1209> me: and whosoever <1437> shall receive <1209> me

receiveth <1209> him that sent <0649> me: for he that is least

<3398> among <1722> you all, the same <3778> shall be great

<3173>.

49 And John <2491> answered <0611> and said <2036>, Master

<1988>, we saw <1492> one <5100> casting <1544> out devils

<1140> in thy name <3686>; and we forbad <2967> him, because

<3754> he followeth <0190> not with us.

50 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, Forbid <2967> [him]

not: for he that is not against <2596> us is for us.

51. And it came <1096> to pass, when <3588> the time <2250> was

come <4845> that he should be received <0354> up, he stedfastly

<4741> set <4741> his face <4383> to go <4198> to Jerusalem

<2419>,

52 And sent <0649> messengers <0032> before <4253> his face

<4383>: and they went <4198>, and entered <1525> into <1519> a

village <2968> of the Samaritans <4541>, to make <2090> ready

<2090> for him.

53 And they did not receive <1209> him, because <3754> his

face <4383> was as though he would go <4198> to Jerusalem <2419>.

54 And when his disciples <3101> James <2385> and John <2491>

saw <1492> [this], they said <2036>, Lord <2962>, wilt <2309>

thou that we command <2036> fire <4442> to come <2597> down

<2597> from heaven <3772>, and consume <0355> them, even <2532>

as Elias <2243> did <4160>?

55 But he turned <4762>, and rebuked <2008> them, and said

<2036>, Ye know <1492> not what <3634> manner <3634> of spirit

<4151> ye are of.

56 For the Son <5207> of man <0444> is not come <2064> to

destroy <0622> men's <0444> lives <5590>, but to save <4982>

[them]. And they went <4198> to another <2087> village <2968>.

57. And it came <1096> to pass, that, as they went <4198> in

the way <3598>, a certain <5100> [man] said <2036> unto him,

Lord <2962>, I will follow <0190> thee whithersoever <0302> thou

goest <0565>.

58 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, Foxes <0258> have

<2192> holes <5454>, and birds <4071> of the air <3772> [have]

nests <2682>; but the Son <5207> of man <0444> hath <2192> not

where <4226> to lay <2827> [his] head <2776>.

59 And he said <2036> unto another <2087>, Follow <0190> me.

But he said <2036>, Lord <2962>, suffer <2010> me first <4412>

to go <0565> and bury <2290> my father <3962>.

60 Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, Let <0863> the dead

<3498> bury <2290> their dead <3498>: but go <0565> thou and

preach <1229> the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>.

61 And another <2087> also <2532> said <2036>, Lord <2962>, I

will follow <0190> thee; but let <2010> me first <4412> go bid

<0657> them farewell <0657>, which are at home at <1519> my

house <3624>.

62 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, No <3762> man <3762>,

having put <1911> his hand <5495> to the plough <0723>, and

looking <0991> back <3694>, is fit <2111> for the kingdom <0932>

of God <2316>.

Luke 10

1. After <3326> these <5023> things the Lord <2962> appointed

<0322> other <2087> seventy <1440> also <2532>, and sent <0649>

them two and two <1417> before <4253> his face <4383> into

<1519> every <3956> city <4172> and place <5117>, whither <3757>

he himself <0846> would <3195> come <2064>.

2 Therefore <3767> said <3004> he unto them, The harvest

<2326> truly <3303> [is] great <4183>, but the labourers <2040>

[are] few <3641>: pray <1189> ye therefore the Lord <2962> of

the harvest <2326>, that he would send <1544> forth <1544>

labourers <2040> into <1519> his harvest <2326>.

3 Go <4198> your ways: behold <2400>, I send <0649> you forth

<0649> as lambs <0704> among <3319> wolves <3074>.

4 Carry <0941> neither <3361> purse <0905>, nor <3361> scrip

<4082>, nor <3361> shoes <5266>: and salute <0782> no <3367> man

<3367> by the way <3598>.

5 And into <1519> whatsoever <0302> house <3614> ye enter

<1525>, first <4412> say <3004>, Peace <1515> [be] to this

<5129> house <3624>.

6 And if <1437> the son <5207> of peace <1515> be there <1563>,

your <5216> peace <1515> shall rest <1879> upon it: if <1490>

not, it shall turn <0344> to you again <0344>.

7 And in the same <0846> house <3614> remain <3306>, eating

<2068> and drinking <4095> such things as they give <3844>: for

the labourer <2040> is worthy <0514> of his hire <3408>. Go

<3327> not from house <3614> to house <3614>.

8 And into <1519> whatsoever <0302> city <4172> ye enter

<1525>, and they receive <1209> you, eat <2068> such things as

are set <3908> before <3908> you:

9 And heal <2323> the sick <0772> that are therein <0846>, and

say <3004> unto them, The kingdom <0932> of God <2316> is come

<1448> nigh <1448> unto you.

10 But into <1519> whatsoever <0302> city <4172> ye enter

<1525>, and they receive <1209> you not, go <1831> your ways out

into <1519> the streets <4113> of the same <0846>, and say

<2036>,

11 Even <2532> the very dust <2868> of your <5216> city <4172>,

which <3588> cleaveth <2853> on us, we do wipe <0631> off

<0631> against you: notwithstanding <4133> be ye sure <1097> of

this <5124>, that the kingdom <0932> of God <2316> is come

<1448> nigh <1448> unto you.

12 But I say <3004> unto you, that it shall be more <0414>

tolerable <0414> in that day <2250> for Sodom <4670>, than

<2228> for that city <4172>.

13 Woe <3759> unto thee, Chorazin <5523>! woe <3759> unto thee,

Bethsaida <0966>! for if <1487> the mighty <1411> works had

been done <1096> in Tyre <5184> and Sidon <4605>, which <3739>

have been done <1096> in you, they had a great <3819> while ago

<3819> repented <3340>, sitting <2521> in sackcloth <4526> and

ashes <4700>.

14 But it shall be more <0414> tolerable <0414> for Tyre

<5184> and Sidon <4605> at <1722> the judgment <2920>, than

<2228> for you.

15 And thou, Capernaum <2584>, which <3588> art exalted <5312>

to heaven <3772>, shalt be thrust <2601> down <2601> to hell

<0086>.

16 He that heareth <0191> you heareth <0191> me; and he that

despiseth <0114> you despiseth <0114> me; and he that despiseth

<0114> me despiseth <0114> him that sent <0649> me.

17. And the seventy <1440> returned <5290> again <5290> with

joy <5479>, saying <3004>, Lord <2962>, even <2532> the devils

<1140> are subject <5293> unto us through <1722> thy name <3686>.

18 And he said <2036> unto them, I beheld <2334> Satan <4567>

as lightning <0796> fall <4098> from heaven <3772>.

19 Behold <2400>, I give <1325> unto you power <1849> to tread

<3961> on <1883> serpents <3789> and scorpions <4651>, and over

<1909> all <3956> the power <1411> of the enemy <2190>: and

nothing <3762> shall by any <3364> means <3364> hurt <0091> you.

20 Notwithstanding <4133> in this <5129> rejoice <5463> not,

that the spirits <4151> are subject <5293> unto you; but rather

<3123> rejoice <5463>, because <3754> your <5216> names <3686>

are written <1125> in heaven <3772>.

21 In that hour <5610> Jesus <2424> rejoiced <0021> in spirit

<4151>, and said <2036>, I thank <1843> thee, O Father <3962>,

Lord <2962> of heaven <3772> and earth <1093>, that thou hast

hid <0613> these <5023> things from the wise <4680> and prudent

<4908>, and hast revealed <0601> them unto babes <3516>: even

<3483> so <3483>, Father <3962>; for so <3779> it seemed <2107>

good in thy sight <1715>.

22 All <3956> things are delivered <3860> to me of my Father

<3962>: and no <3762> man <3762> knoweth <1097> who <5101> the

Son <5207> is, but the Father <3962>; and who <5101> the Father

<3962> is, but the Son <5207>, and [he] to whom <3739> the Son

<5207> will <1014> reveal <0601> [him].

23 And he turned <4762> him unto [his] disciples <3101>, and

said <2036> privately <2398>, Blessed <3107> [are] the eyes

<3788> which <3588> see <0991> the things that ye see <0991>:

24 For I tell <3004> you, that many <4183> prophets <4396> and

kings <0935> have desired <2309> to see <1492> those things

which <3739> ye see <0991>, and have not seen <1492> [them]; and

to hear <0191> those things which <3739> ye hear <0191>, and

have not heard <0191> [them].

25. And, behold <2400>, a certain <5100> lawyer <3544> stood

<0450> up, and tempted <1598> him, saying <3004>, Master <1320>,

what <5101> shall I do <4160> to inherit <2816> eternal <0166>

life <2222>?

26 He said <2036> unto him, What <5101> is written <1125> in

the law <3551>? how <4459> readest <0314> thou?

27 And he answering <0611> said <2036>, Thou shalt love <0025>

the Lord <2962> thy God <2316> with all <3650> thy heart <2588>,

and with all <3650> thy soul <5590>, and with all <3650> thy

strength <2479>, and with all <3650> thy mind <1271>; and thy

neighbour <4139> as thyself <4572>.

28 And he said <2036> unto him, Thou hast answered <0611>

right <3723>: this <5124> do <4160>, and thou shalt live <2198>.

29 But he, willing <2309> to justify <1344> himself <1438>,

said <2036> unto Jesus <2424>, And who <5101> is my neighbour

<4139>?

30 And Jesus <2424> answering <5274> said <2036>, A certain

<5100> [man <0444>] went <2597> down <2597> from Jerusalem

<2419> to Jericho <2410>, and fell <4045> among <4045> thieves

<3027>, which <3739> stripped <1562> him of his raiment, and

wounded <2007> [him], and departed <0565>, leaving <0863> [him]

half <2253> dead <2258>.

31 And by chance <4795> there came <2597> down a certain

<5100> priest <2409> that way <3598>: and when he saw <1492> him,

he passed <0492> by on the other <0492> side <0492>.

32 And likewise <3668> a Levite <3019>, when he was at <2596>

the place <5117>, came <2064> and looked <1492> [on him], and

passed <0492> by on the other <0492> side <0492>.

33 But a certain <5100> Samaritan <4541>, as he journeyed

<3593>, came <2064> where <2596> he was: and when he saw <1492>

him, he had compassion <4697> [on him],

34 And went <4334> to [him], and bound <2611> up his wounds

<5134>, pouring in oil <1637> and wine <3631>, and set <1913>

him on <1909> his own <2398> beast <2934>, and brought <0071>

him to an inn <3829>, and took <1959> care <1959> of him.

35 And on <1909> the morrow <0839> when he departed <1831>, he

took <1544> out two <1417> pence <1220>, and gave <1325> [them]

to the host <3830>, and said <2036> unto him, Take care <1959>

of him; and whatsoever <0302> thou spendest <4325> more <4325>,

when <3588> I come <1880> again <1880>, I will repay <0591> thee.

36 Which <5101> now <3767> of these <5130> three <5140>,

thinkest <1380> thou, was neighbour <4139> unto him that fell

<1706> among <1519> the thieves <3027>?

37 And he said <2036>, He that shewed <4160> mercy <1656> on

<3326> him. Then <3767> said <2036> Jesus <2424> unto him, Go

<4198>, and do <4160> thou likewise <3668>.

38. Now <1161> it came <1096> to pass, as they went <4198>,

that he entered <1525> into <1519> a certain <5100> village

<2968>: and a certain <5100> woman <1135> named <3686> Martha

<3136> received <5264> him into <1519> her house <3624>.

39 And she had <1510> a sister <0079> called <2564> Mary

<3137>, which also <2532> sat <3869> at <3844> Jesus <2424>'

feet <4228>, and heard <0191> his word <3056>.

40 But Martha <3136> was cumbered <4049> about <4012> much

<4183> serving <1248>, and came <2186> to him, and said <2036>,

Lord <2962>, dost thou not care <3199> that my sister <0079>

hath left <2641> me to serve <1247> alone <3441>? bid <2036> her

therefore <3767> that she help <4878> me.

41 And Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said <2036> unto her,

Martha <3136>, Martha <3136>, thou art careful <3309> and

troubled <5182> about <4012> many <4183> things:

42 But one <1520> thing is needful <5532>: and Mary <3137>

hath chosen <1586> that good <0018> part <3310>, which <3748>

shall not be taken <0851> away <0851> from her.

Luke 11

1. And it came <1096> to pass, that, as he was praying <4336>

in a certain <5100> place <5117>, when <5613> he ceased <3973>,

one <5100> of his disciples <3101> said <2036> unto him, Lord

<2962>, teach <1321> us to pray <4336>, as John <2491> also

<2532> taught <1321> his disciples <3101>.

2 And he said <2036> unto them, When <3752> ye pray <4336>,

say <3004>, Our Father <3962> which <3588> art in heaven <3772>,

Hallowed <0037> be thy name <3686>. Thy kingdom <0932> come

<2064>. Thy will <2307> be done <1096>, as in heaven <3772>, so

<2532> in earth <1093>.

3 Give <1325> us day <2250> by day <2250> our daily <1967>

bread <0740>.

4 And forgive <0863> us our sins <0266>; for we also <2532>

forgive <0863> every <3956> one that is indebted <3784> to us.

And lead <1533> us not into <1519> temptation <3986>; but

deliver <4506> us from evil <4190>.

5 And he said <2036> unto them, Which <5101> of you shall have

<2192> a friend <5384>, and shall go <4198> unto him at <3317>

midnight <3317>, and say <2036> unto him, Friend <5384>, lend

<5531> me three <5140> loaves <0740>;

6 For a friend <5384> of mine <3450> in his journey <3598> is

come <3854> to me, and I have <2192> nothing <3739> to set

<3908> before <3908> him?

7 And he from within <2081> shall answer <0611> and say <2036>,

Trouble <2873> me not: the door <2374> is now <2236> shut

<2808>, and my children <3813> are with me in bed <2845>; I

cannot <1410> rise <0450> and give <1325> thee.

8 I say <3004> unto you, Though <1499> he will not rise <1453>

and give <1325> him, because <1223> he is his friend <5384>, yet

<1065> because <1223> of his importunity <0335> he will rise

<0450> and give <1325> him as many <3745> as he needeth <5535>.

9 And I say <3004> unto you, Ask <0154>, and it shall be given

<1325> you; seek <2212>, and ye shall find <2147>; knock <2925>,

and it shall be opened <0455> unto you.

10 For every <3956> one that asketh <0154> receiveth <2983>;

and he that seeketh <2212> findeth <2147>; and to him that

knocketh <2925> it shall be opened <0455>.

11 If a son <5207> shall ask <0154> bread <0740> of any <5100>

of you that is a father <3962>, will he give <1929> him a stone

<3037>? or if [he ask] a fish <2486>, will he for a fish <2486>

give <1929> him a serpent <3789>?

12 Or <2532> if <1437> he shall ask <0154> an egg <5609>, will

he offer <1929> him a scorpion <4651>?

13 If <1487> ye then <3767>, being <5225> evil <4190>, know

<1492> how to give <1325> good <0018> gifts <1390> unto your

<5216> children <5043>: how <4214> much <4214> more <3123> shall

[your <3588>] heavenly <3772> Father <3962> give <1325> the Holy

<0040> Spirit <4151> to them that ask <0154> him?

14. And he was casting <1544> out a devil <1140>, and it was

dumb <2974>. And it came <1096> to pass, when the devil <1140>

was gone <1831> out, the dumb <2974> spake <2980>; and the

people <3793> wondered <2296>.

15 But some <5100> of them said <2036>, He casteth <1544> out

devils <1140> through <1722> Beelzebub <0954> the chief <0758>

of the devils <1140>.

16 And others <2087>, tempting <3985> [him], sought <2212> of

him a sign <4592> from heaven <3772>.

17 But he, knowing <1492> their thoughts <1270>, said <2036>

unto them, Every <3956> kingdom <0932> divided <1266> against

<1909> itself <1438> is brought <2049> to desolation <2049>; and

a house <3624> [divided] against <1909> a house <3624> falleth

<4098>.

18 If <1499> Satan <4567> also <2532> be divided <1266>

against <1909> himself <1438>, how <4459> shall his kingdom

<0932> stand <2476>? because <3754> ye say <3004> that I cast

<1544> out devils <1140> through <1722> Beelzebub <0954>.

19 And if <1487> I by Beelzebub <0954> cast <1544> out devils

<1140>, by whom <5101> do your <5216> sons <5207> cast <1544>

[them] out? therefore <5124> shall they be your <5216> judges

<2923>.

20 But if <1487> I with the finger <1147> of God <2316> cast

<1544> out devils <1140>, no <0686> doubt <0686> the kingdom

<0932> of God <2316> is come <5348> upon you.

21 When <3752> a strong <2478> man armed <2528> keepeth <5442>

his palace <0833>, his goods <5224> are in peace <1515>:

22 But when <1875> a stronger <2478> than he shall come <1904>

upon him, and overcome <3528> him, he taketh <0142> from him all

<3833> his armour <3833> wherein <3739> he trusted <3982>, and

divideth <1239> his spoils <4661>.

23 He that is not with me is against <2596> me: and he that

gathereth <4863> not with me scattereth <4650>.

24 When <3752> the unclean <0169> spirit <4151> is gone <1831>

out of a man <0444>, he walketh <1330> through <1223> dry <0504>

places <5117>, seeking <2212> rest <0372>; and finding <2147>

none <3361>, he saith <3004>, I will return <5290> unto my house

<3624> whence <3606> I came <1831> out.

25 And when he cometh <2064>, he findeth <2147> [it] swept

<4563> and garnished <2885>.

26 Then <5119> goeth <4198> he, and taketh <3880> [to him]

seven <2033> other <2087> spirits <4151> more wicked <4191> than

himself <1438>; and they enter <1525> in, and dwell <2730> there

<1563>: and the last <2078> [state] of that man <0444> is worse

<5501> than the first <4413>.

27. And it came <1096> to pass, as he spake <3004> these <5023>

things, a certain <5100> woman <1135> of the company <3793>

lifted <1869> up her voice <5456>, and said <2036> unto him,

Blessed <3107> [is] the womb <2836> that bare <0941> thee, and

the paps <3149> which <3739> thou hast sucked <2337>.

28 But he said <2036>, Yea <3304> rather <3304>, blessed

<3107> [are] they that hear <0191> the word <3056> of God <2316>,

and keep <5442> it.

29. And when the people <3793> were gathered <1865> thick

together <1865>, he began <0756> to say <3004>, This <3778> is

an evil <4190> generation <1074>: they seek <1934> a sign <4592>;

and there shall no <3756> sign <4592> be given <1325> it, but

the sign <4592> of Jonas <2495> the prophet <4396>.

30 For as Jonas <2495> was a sign <4592> unto the Ninevites

<3536>, so <3779> shall also <2532> the Son <5207> of man <0444>

be to this <5026> generation <1074>.

31 The queen <0938> of the south <3558> shall rise <1453> up

in the judgment <2920> with the men <0435> of this <5026>

generation <1074>, and condemn <2632> them: for she came <2064>

from the utmost <4009> parts of the earth <1093> to hear <0191>

the wisdom <4678> of Solomon <4672>; and, behold <2400>, a

greater <4119> than Solomon <4672> [is] here <5602>.

32 The men <0435> of Nineve <3535> shall rise <0450> up in the

judgment <2920> with this <5026> generation <1074>, and shall

condemn <2632> it: for they repented <3340> at <1519> the

preaching <2782> of Jonas <2495>; and, behold <2400>, a greater

<4119> than Jonas <2495> [is] here <5602>.

33 No <3762> man <3762>, when he hath lighted <0681> a candle

<3088>, putteth <5087> [it] in a secret <2926> place, neither

<3761> under <5259> a bushel <3426>, but on <1909> a candlestick

<3087>, that they which <3588> come <1531> in may see <0991> the

light <5338>.

34 The light <3088> of the body <4983> is the eye <3788>:

therefore <3767> when <1875> thine <4675> eye <3788> is single

<0573>, thy whole <3650> body <4983> also <2532> is full <5460>

of light <5460>; but when <3752> [thine eye] is evil <4190>, thy

body <4983> also <2532> [is] full of darkness <4652>.

35 Take <4648> heed <4648> therefore <3767> that the light

<5457> which <3588> is in thee be not darkness <4655>.

36 If <1487> thy whole <3650> body <4983> therefore <3767>

[be] full <5460> of light <5460>, having <2192> no <5100> part

<3313> dark <4652>, the whole <3650> shall be full <5460> of

light <5460>, as when <3752> the bright <0796> shining <0796> of

a candle <3088> doth give <5461> thee light <5461>.

37. And as he spake <2980>, a certain <5100> Pharisee <5330>

besought <2065> him to dine <0709> with him: and he went <1525>

in, and sat <0377> down <0377> to meat.

38 And when the Pharisee <5330> saw <1492> [it], he marvelled

<2296> that he had not first <4412> washed <0907> before <4253>

dinner <0712>.

39 And the Lord <2962> said <2036> unto him, Now <3568> do ye

Pharisees <5330> make <2511> clean <2511> the outside <1855> of

the cup <4221> and the platter <4094>; but your <5216> inward

<2081> part is full <1073> of ravening <0724> and wickedness

<4189>.

40 [Ye] fools <0878>, did not he that made <4160> that which

<3588> is without <1855> make <4160> that which is within <2081>

also <2532>?

41 But rather <4133> give <1325> alms <1654> of such things as

ye have <1751>; and, behold <2400>, all <3956> things are clean

<2513> unto you.

42 But woe <3759> unto you, Pharisees <5330>! for ye tithe

<0586> mint <2238> and rue <4076> and all <3956> manner of herbs

<3001>, and pass <3928> over <3928> judgment <2920> and the love

<0026> of God <2316>: these <5023> ought <1163> ye to have done

<4160>, and not to leave <0863> the other <2548> undone.

43 Woe <3759> unto you, Pharisees <5330>! for ye love <0025>

the uppermost <4410> seats <4410> in the synagogues <4864>, and

greetings <0783> in the markets <0058>.

44 Woe <3759> unto you, scribes <1122> and Pharisees <5330>,

hypocrites <5273>! for ye are as graves <3419> which <3588>

appear <0082> not, and the men <0444> that walk <4043> over

<1883> [them] are not aware <1492> [of them].

45 Then <1161> answered <0611> one <5100> of the lawyers

<3544>, and said <3004> unto him, Master <1320>, thus <5023>

saying <3004> thou reproachest <5195> us also <2532>.

46 And he said <2036>, Woe <3759> unto you also <2532>, [ye]

lawyers <3544>! for ye lade <5412> men <0444> with burdens

<5413> grievous <1418> to be borne <1418>, and ye yourselves

<0846> touch <4379> not the burdens <5413> with one <1520> of

your <5216> fingers <1147>.

47 Woe <3759> unto you! for ye build <3618> the sepulchres

<3419> of the prophets <4396>, and your <5216> fathers <3962>

killed <0615> them.

48 Truly <0686> ye bear <3140> witness <3140> that ye allow

<4909> the deeds <2041> of your <5216> fathers <3962>: for they

indeed <3303> killed <0615> them, and ye build <3618> their

sepulchres <3419>.

49 Therefore also <2532> said <2036> the wisdom <4678> of God

<2316>, I will send <0649> them prophets <4396> and apostles

<0652>, and [some] of them they shall slay <0615> and persecute

<1559>:

50 That the blood <0129> of all <3956> the prophets <4396>,

which <3588> was shed <1632> from the foundation <2602> of the

world <2889>, may be required <1567> of this <5026> generation

<1074>;

51 From the blood <0129> of Abel <0006> unto the blood <0129>

of Zacharias <2197>, which <3588> perished <0622> between <3342>

the altar <2379> and the temple <3624>: verily <3483> I say

<3004> unto you, It shall be required <1567> of this <5026>

generation <1074>.

52 Woe <3759> unto you, lawyers <3544>! for ye have taken

<0142> away the key <2807> of knowledge <1108>: ye entered

<1525> not in yourselves <0846>, and them that were entering

<1525> in ye hindered <2967>.

53 And as he said <3004> these <5023> things unto them, the

scribes <1122> and the Pharisees <5330> began <0756> to urge

<1758> [him] vehemently <1171>, and to provoke <0653> him to

speak <0653> of many <4119> things:

54 Laying <1748> wait <1748> for him, and seeking <2212> to

catch <2340> something <5100> out of his mouth <4750>, that they

might accuse <2723> him.

Luke 12

1. In the mean time, when there were gathered <1996> together

<1996> an innumerable <3461> multitude <3461> of people <3793>,

insomuch <5620> that they trode <2662> one <0240> upon another

<0240>, he began <0756> to say <3004> unto his disciples <3101>

first <4412> of all, Beware <4337> ye of the leaven <2219> of

the Pharisees <5330>, which <3748> is hypocrisy <5272>.

2 For there is nothing <3762> covered <4780>, that shall not

be revealed <0601>; neither hid <2927>, that shall not be known

<1097>.

3 Therefore <5607> whatsoever <3745> ye have spoken <2036> in

darkness <4653> shall be heard <0191> in the light <5457>; and

that which <3739> ye have spoken <2980> in the ear <3775> in

closets <5009> shall be proclaimed <2784> upon the housetops

<1430>.

4 And I say <3004> unto you my friends <5384>, Be not afraid

<5399> of them that kill <0615> the body <4983>, and after

<3326> that have <2192> no <5100> more <4055> that they can do

<4160>.

5 But I will forewarn <5263> you whom <5101> ye shall fear

<5399>: Fear <5399> him, which after <3326> he hath killed

<0615> hath <2192> power <1849> to cast <1685> into <1519> hell

<1067>; yea <3483>, I say <3004> unto you, Fear <5399> him.

6 Are not five <4002> sparrows <4765> sold <4453> for two

<1417> farthings <0787>, and not one <1520> of them is forgotten

<1950> before <1799> God <2316>?

7 But even <2532> the very <2532> hairs <2359> of your <5216>

head <2776> are all <3956> numbered <0705>. Fear <5399> not

therefore <3767>: ye are of more <1308> value <1308> than many

<4183> sparrows <4765>.

8 Also <1161> I say <3004> unto you, Whosoever <0302> shall

confess <3670> me before <1715> men <0444>, him shall the Son

<5207> of man <0444> also <2532> confess <3670> before <1715>

the angels <0032> of God <2316>:

9 But he that denieth <0720> me before <1799> men <0444> shall

be denied <0533> before <1799> the angels <0032> of God <2316>.

10 And whosoever <3739> shall speak <2046> a word <3056>

against <1519> the Son <5207> of man <0444>, it shall be

forgiven <0863> him: but unto him that blasphemeth <0987>

against <1519> the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151> it shall not be

forgiven <0863>.

11 And when <3752> they bring <4374> you unto the synagogues

<4864>, and [unto] magistrates <0796>, and powers <1849>, take

ye no <3361> thought <3309> how <4459> or <2228> what <5101>

thing ye shall answer <0626>, or <2228> what <5101> ye shall say

<2036>:

12 For the Holy <0040> Ghost <4151> shall teach <1321> you in

the same <0846> hour <5610> what <3739> ye ought <1163> to say

<2036>.

13. And one <5100> of the company <3793> said <2036> unto him,

Master <1320>, speak <2036> to my brother <0080>, that he divide

<3307> the inheritance <2817> with me.

14 And he said <2036> unto him, Man <0444>, who <5101> made

<2525> me a judge <1348> or <2228> a divider <3312> over <1909>

you?

15 And he said <2036> unto them, Take heed <3708>, and beware

<5442> of covetousness <4124>: for a man's <5100> life <2222>

consisteth <2076> not in the abundance <4052> of the things

which he possesseth <5224>.

16 And he spake <2036> a parable <3850> unto them, saying

<3004>, The ground <5561> of a certain <5100> rich <4145> man

<0444> brought <2164> forth <2164> plentifully <2164>:

17 And he thought <1260> within <1722> himself <1438>, saying

<3004>, What <5101> shall I do <4160>, because <3754> I have

<2192> no <3756> room where <4226> to bestow <4863> my fruits

<2590>?

18 And he said <2036>, This <5124> will I do <4160>: I will

pull <2507> down <2507> my barns <0596>, and build <3618>

greater <3187>; and there <1563> will I bestow <4863> all <3956>

my fruits <1081> and my goods <0018>.

19 And I will say <2046> to my soul <5590>, Soul <5590>, thou

hast <2192> much <4183> goods <0018> laid <2749> up for many

<4183> years <2094>; take thine ease <0373>, eat <5315>, drink

<4095>, [and] be merry <2165>.

20 But God <2316> said <2036> unto him, [Thou] fool <0878>,

this <5026> night <3571> thy soul <5590> shall be required

<0523> of thee: then <1161> whose <5101> shall those things be,

which <3739> thou hast provided <2090>?

21 So <3779> [is] he that layeth up treasure <2343> for

himself <1438>, and is not rich <4147> toward <1519> God <2316>.

22. And he said <2036> unto his disciples <3101>, Therefore

<5124> I say <3004> unto you, Take no <3361> thought <3309> for

your <5216> life <5590>, what <5101> ye shall eat <5315>;

neither <3366> for the body <4983>, what <5101> ye shall put

<1746> on <1746>.

23 The life <5590> is more <4119> than meat <5160>, and the

body <4983> [is more] than raiment <1742>.

24 Consider <2657> the ravens <2876>: for they neither <3756>

sow <4687> nor <3761> reap <2325>; which <3739> neither <3756>

have <2076> storehouse <5009> nor <3761> barn <0596>; and God

<2316> feedeth <5142> them: how <4214> much <4214> more <3123>

are ye better <1308> than the fowls <4071>?

25 And which <5101> of you with taking thought <3309> can

<1410> add <4369> to his stature <2244> one <1520> cubit <4083>?

26 If <1487> ye then <3767> be not able <1410> to do that

thing which is least <1646>, why <5101> take ye thought <3309>

for the rest <3062>?

27 Consider <2657> the lilies <2918> how <4459> they grow

<0837>: they toil <2872> not, they spin <3514> not; and yet I

say <3004> unto you, that Solomon <4672> in all <3956> his glory

<1391> was not arrayed <4016> like <5613> one <1520> of these

<5130>.

28 If <1487> then <1161> God <2316> so <3779> clothe <0294>

the grass <5528>, which is to day <4594> in the field <0068>,

and to morrow <0839> is cast <0906> into <1519> the oven <2823>;

how <4214> much <4214> more <3123> [will he clothe] you, O ye of

little <3640> faith <3640>?

29 And seek <2212> not ye what <5101> ye shall eat <5315>, or

<2228> what <5101> ye shall drink <4095>, neither <3361> be ye

of doubtful <3349> mind.

30 For all <3956> these <5023> things do the nations <1484> of

the world <2889> seek <1934> after <1934>: and your <5216>

Father <3962> knoweth <1492> that ye have need <5535> of these

<5130> things.

31 But rather <4133> seek <2212> ye the kingdom <0932> of God

<2316>; and all <3956> these <5023> things shall be added <4369>

unto you.

32 Fear <5399> not, little <3398> flock <4168>; for it is your

<5216> Father's <3962> good pleasure <2106> to give <1325> you

the kingdom <0932>.

33 Sell <4453> that ye have <5224>, and give <1325> alms

<1654>; provide <4160> yourselves <1438> bags <0905> which wax

<3822> not old <3822>, a treasure <2344> in the heavens <3772>

that faileth <0413> not, where <3699> no <3756> thief <2812>

approacheth <1448>, neither <3761> moth <4597> corrupteth <1311>.

34 For where <3699> your <5216> treasure <2344> is, there

<1563> will your <5216> heart <2588> be also <2532>.

35 Let your <5216> loins <3751> be girded <4024> about <4024>,

and [your <3588>] lights <3088> burning <2545>;

36 And ye yourselves like <3664> unto men <0444> that wait

<4327> for their lord <2962>, when <4218> he will return <0360>

from the wedding <1062>; that when he cometh <2064> and knocketh

<2925>, they may open <0455> unto him immediately <2112>.

37 Blessed <3107> [are] those <1565> servants <1401>, whom

<3739> the lord <2962> when he cometh <2064> shall find <2147>

watching <1127>: verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, that he

shall gird <4024> himself, and make <0347> them to sit <0347>

down <0347> to meat, and will come <3928> forth <3928> and serve

<1247> them.

38 And if <1437> he shall come <2064> in the second <1208>

watch <5438>, or <2532> come <2064> in the third <5154> watch

<5438>, and find <2147> [them] so <3779>, blessed <3107> are

those <1565> servants <1401>.

39 And this <5124> know <1097>, that if <1487> the goodman

<3617> of the house <3617> had known <1492> what <4169> hour

<5610> the thief <2812> would come <2064>, he would have watched

<1127>, and not have suffered <0863> his house <3624> to be

broken <1358> through <1358>.

40 Be ye therefore <3767> ready <2092> also <2532>: for the

Son <5207> of man <0444> cometh <2064> at an hour <5610> when ye

think <1380> not.

41. Then <1161> Peter <4074> said <2036> unto him, Lord <2962>,

speakest <3004> thou this <5026> parable <3850> unto us, or

<2228> even <2532> to all <3956>?

42 And the Lord <2962> said <2036>, Who <5101> then <0686> is

that faithful <4103> and wise <5429> steward <3623>, whom <3739>

[his] lord <2962> shall make <2525> ruler <2525> over <1909> his

household <2322>, to give <1325> [them their] portion <4620> of

meat <4620> in due season <2540>?

43 Blessed <3107> [is] that servant <1401>, whom <3739> his

lord <2962> when he cometh <2064> shall find <2147> so <3779>

doing <4160>.

44 Of a truth <0230> I say <3004> unto you, that he will make

<2525> him ruler <2525> over <1909> all <3956> that he hath

<5224>.

45 But and if <1437> that servant <1401> say <2036> in his

heart <2588>, My lord <2962> delayeth <5549> his coming <2064>;

and shall begin <0756> to beat <5180> the menservants <3816> and

maidens <3814>, and to eat <2068> and drink <4095>, and to be

drunken <3182>;

46 The lord <2962> of that servant <1401> will come <2240> in

a day <2250> when he looketh <4328> not for [him], and at <1722>

an hour <5610> when he is not aware <1097>, and will cut <1371>

him in sunder, and will appoint <5087> him his portion <3313>

with the unbelievers <0571>.

47 And that servant <1401>, which <3588> knew <1097> his

lord's <2962> will <2307>, and prepared <2090> not [himself],

neither <3366> did <4160> according <4314> to his will <2307>,

shall be beaten <1194> with many <4183> [stripes].

48 But he that knew <1097> not, and did commit <4160> things

worthy <0514> of stripes <4127>, shall be beaten <1194> with few

<3641> [stripes <4127>]. For unto whomsoever <3739> much <4183>

is given <1325>, of him shall be much <4183> required <2212>:

and to whom <3739> men have committed <3908> much <4183>, of him

they will ask <0154> the more <4055>.

49 I am come <2064> to send <0906> fire <4442> on <1519> the

earth <1093>; and what <5101> will <2309> I, if <1487> it be

already <2235> kindled <0381>?

50 But I have <2192> a baptism <0908> to be baptized <0907>

with; and how <4459> am I straitened <4912> till <2193> it be

accomplished <5055>!

51 Suppose <1380> ye that I am come <3854> to give <1325>

peace <1515> on <1722> earth <1093>? I tell <3004> you, Nay

<3780>; but rather <2228> division <1267>:

52 For from henceforth <3568> there shall be five <4002> in

one <1520> house <3624> divided <1266>, three <5140> against

<1909> two <1417>, and two <1417> against <1909> three <5140>.

53 The father <3962> shall be divided <1266> against <1909>

the son <5207>, and the son <5207> against <1909> the father

<3962>; the mother <3384> against <1909> the daughter <2364>,

and the daughter <2364> against <1909> the mother <3384>; the

mother <3994> in law <3994> against <1909> her daughter <3565>

in law <3565>, and the daughter <3565> in law <3565> against

<1909> her mother <3994> in law <3994>.

54. And he said <3004> also <2532> to the people <3793>, When

<3752> ye see <1492> a cloud <3507> rise <0393> out of the west

<1424>, straightway <2112> ye say <3004>, There cometh <2064> a

shower <3655>; and so <3779> it is.

55 And when <3753> [ye see] the south <3558> wind blow <4154>,

ye say <3004>, There will be heat <2742>; and it cometh <1096>

to pass.

56 [Ye] hypocrites <5273>, ye can <1492> discern <1381> the

face <4383> of the sky <3772> and of the earth <1093>; but how

<4459> is it that ye do not discern this <5126> time <2540>?

57 Yea, and why <5101> even <2532> of yourselves <1438> judge

<2919> ye not what <3588> is right <1342>?

58 When <5613> thou goest <5217> with thine <4675> adversary

<0476> to the magistrate <0758>, [as thou art] in the way <3598>,

give <1325> diligence <2039> that thou mayest be delivered

<0525> from him; lest <3379> he hale <2694> thee to the judge

<2923>, and the judge <2923> deliver <3860> thee to the officer

<4233>, and the officer <4233> cast <0906> thee into <1519>

prison <5438>.

59 I tell <3004> thee, thou shalt not depart <1831> thence

<1564>, till <2193> thou hast paid <0591> the very last <2078>

mite <3016>.

Luke 13

1. There were present <3918> at <1722> that season <2540> some

<5100> that told <0518> him of the Galilaeans <1057>, whose

<3739> blood <0129> Pilate <4091> had mingled <3396> with their

sacrifices <2378>.

2 And Jesus <2424> answering <0611> said <2036> unto them,

Suppose <1380> ye that these <3778> Galilaeans <1057> were

sinners <0268> above <3844> all <3956> the Galilaeans <1057>,

because <3754> they suffered <3958> such <5108> things?

3 I tell <3004> you, Nay <3780>: but, except <3362> ye repent

<3340>, ye shall all <3956> likewise <5615> perish <0622>.

4 Or <2228> those <1565> eighteen <3638>, upon whom <3739> the

tower <4444> in Siloam <4611> fell <4098>, and slew <0615> them,

think <1380> ye that they were sinners <3781> above <3844> all

<3956> men <0444> that dwelt <2730> in Jerusalem <2419>?

5 I tell <3004> you, Nay <3780>: but, except <3362> ye repent

<3340>, ye shall all <3956> likewise <3668> perish <0622>.

6. He spake <3004> also <1161> this <5026> parable <3850>; A

certain <5100> [man] had <2192> a fig <4808> tree <4808> planted

<5452> in his vineyard <0290>; and he came <2064> and sought

<2212> fruit <2590> thereon <0846>, and found <2147> none <3756>.

7 Then <1161> said <2036> he unto the dresser <0289> of his

vineyard <0289>, Behold <2400>, these three <5140> years <2094>

I come <2064> seeking <2212> fruit <2590> on <1722> this <5026>

fig <4808> tree <4808>, and find <2147> none <3756>: cut <1581>

it down <1581>; why <2444> cumbereth <2673> it the ground <1093>?

8 And he answering <0611> said <3004> unto him, Lord <2962>,

let <0863> it alone <0863> this <5124> year <2094> also <2532>,

till <2193> I shall dig <4626> about <4012> it, and dung <2874>

[it]:

9 And if <2579> it bear <4160> fruit <2590>, [well]: and if

<1487> not, [then] after <3195> that thou shalt cut <1581> it

down <1581>.

10. And he was teaching <1321> in one <3391> of the synagogues

<4864> on <1722> the sabbath <4521>.

11 And, behold <2400>, there was a woman <1135> which had

<2192> a spirit <4151> of infirmity <0769> eighteen <3638> years

<2094>, and was bowed <4794> together <4794>, and could <1410>

in no <3361> wise <3838> lift <0352> up [herself].

12 And when Jesus <2424> saw <1492> her, he called <4377> [her

to him], and said <2036> unto her, Woman <1135>, thou art loosed

<0630> from thine <4675> infirmity <0769>.

13 And he laid <2007> [his] hands <5495> on <2007> her: and

immediately <3916> she was made <0461> straight <0461>, and

glorified <1392> God <2316>.

14 And the ruler <0752> of the synagogue <0752> answered

<0611> with indignation <0023>, because <3754> that Jesus <2424>

had healed <2323> on the sabbath <4521> day, and said <3004>

unto the people <3793>, There are six <1803> days <2250> in

which <3739> men ought <1163> to work <2038>: in them therefore

<3767> come <2064> and be healed <2323>, and not on the sabbath

<4521> day <2250>.

15 The Lord <2962> then <3767> answered <0611> him, and said

<2036>, [Thou] hypocrite <5273>, doth not each <1538> one of you

on the sabbath <4521> loose <3089> his ox <1016> or <2228> [his]

ass <3688> from the stall <5336>, and lead <0520> [him] away

<0520> to watering <4222>?

16 And ought <1163> not this <5026> woman, being <5607> a

daughter <2364> of Abraham <11>, whom <3739> Satan <4567> hath

bound <1210>, lo <2400>, these eighteen <3638> years <2094>, be

loosed <3089> from this <5127> bond <1199> on the sabbath <4521>

day <2250>?

17 And when he had said <3004> these <5023> things, all <3956>

his adversaries <0480> were ashamed <2617>: and all <3956> the

people <3793> rejoiced <5463> for all <3956> the glorious <1741>

things that were done <1096> by him.

18. Then <1161> said <3004> he, Unto what <5101> is the kingdom

<0932> of God <2316> like <3664>? and whereunto <5101> shall I

resemble <3666> it?

19 It is like <3664> a grain <2848> of mustard <4615> seed,

which <3739> a man <0444> took <2983>, and cast <0906> into

<1519> his garden <2779>; and it grew <0837>, and waxed <1096> a

great <3173> tree <1186>; and the fowls <4071> of the air <3772>

lodged <2681> in the branches <2798> of it.

20 And again <3825> he said <2036>, Whereunto <5101> shall I

liken <3666> the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>?

21 It is like <3664> leaven <2219>, which <3739> a woman

<1135> took <2983> and hid <1470> in three <5140> measures

<4568> of meal <0224>, till <2193> the whole <3650> was leavened

<2220>.

22 And he went <1279> through <2596> the cities <4172> and

villages <2968>, teaching <1321>, and journeying <4160> toward

<1519> Jerusalem <2419>.

23. Then <1161> said <2036> one <5100> unto him, Lord <2962>,

are there few <3641> that be saved <4982>? And he said <2036>

unto them,

24 Strive <0075> to enter <1525> in at <1223> the strait

<4728> gate <4439>: for many <4183>, I say <3004> unto you, will

seek <2212> to enter <1525> in, and shall not be able <2480>.

25 When once the master <3617> of the house <3617> is risen

<1453> up, and hath shut <0608> to the door <2374>, and ye begin

<0756> to stand <2476> without <1854>, and to knock <2925> at

the door <2374>, saying <3004>, Lord <2962>, Lord <2962>, open

<0455> unto us; and he shall answer <0611> and say <2046> unto

you, I know <1492> you not whence <4159> ye are:

26 Then <5119> shall ye begin <0756> to say <3004>, We have

eaten <5315> and drunk <4095> in thy presence <1799>, and thou

hast taught <1321> in our streets <4113>.

27 But he shall say <2046>, I tell <3004> you, I know <1492>

you not whence <4159> ye are; depart <0868> from me, all <3956>

[ye] workers <2040> of iniquity <0093>.

28 There <1563> shall be weeping <2805> and gnashing <1030> of

teeth <3599>, when <3752> ye shall see <3700> Abraham <11>, and

Isaac <2464>, and Jacob <2384>, and all <3956> the prophets

<4396>, in the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>, and you

[yourselves] thrust <1544> out.

29 And they shall come <2240> from the east <0395>, and [from]

the west <1424>, and from the north <1005>, and [from] the south

<3558>, and shall sit <0347> down <0347> in the kingdom <0932>

of God <2316>.

30 And, behold <2400>, there are last <2078> which <3739>

shall be first <4413>, and there are first <4413> which <3739>

shall be last <2078>.

31. The same <0846> day <2250> there came <4334> certain <5100>

of the Pharisees <5330>, saying <3004> unto him, Get <1831> thee

out, and depart <4198> hence <1782>: for Herod <2264> will

<2309> kill <0615> thee.

32 And he said <2036> unto them, Go <4198> ye, and tell <2036>

that fox <0258>, Behold <2400>, I cast <1544> out devils <1140>,

and I do cures <2392> to day <4594> and to morrow <0839>, and

the third <5154> [day] I shall be perfected <5048>.

33 Nevertheless <4133> I must <1163> walk <4198> to day <4594>,

and to morrow <0839>, and the [day] following <2192>: for it

cannot <1735> be that a prophet <4396> perish <0622> out of

Jerusalem <2419>.

34 O Jerusalem <2419>, Jerusalem <2419>, which <3588> killest

<0615> the prophets <4396>, and stonest <3036> them that are

sent <0649> unto thee; how <4212> often <4212> would <2309> I

have gathered <1996> thy children <5043> together <1996>, as a

hen <3733> [doth gather] her brood <3555> under <5259> [her]

wings <4420>, and ye would <2309> not!

35 Behold <2400>, your <5216> house <3624> is left <0863> unto

you desolate <2048>: and verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, Ye

shall not see <1492> me, until <2193> [the time] come <2240>

when <3753> ye shall say <2036>, Blessed <2127> [is] he that

cometh <2064> in the name <3686> of the Lord <2962>.

Luke 14

1. And it came <1096> to pass, as he went <2064> into <1519>

the house <3624> of one <5100> of the chief <0758> Pharisees

<5330> to eat <5315> bread <0740> on the sabbath <4521> day,

that they watched <3906> him.

2 And, behold <2400>, there was a certain <5100> man <0444>

before <1715> him which had the dropsy <5203>.

3 And Jesus <2424> answering <0611> spake <2036> unto the

lawyers <3544> and Pharisees <5330>, saying <3004>, Is it lawful

<1832> to heal <2323> on the sabbath <4521> day?

4 And they held <2270> their peace <2270>. And he took <1949>

[him], and healed <2323> him, and let him go <0630>;

5 And answered <0611> them, saying <2036>, Which <5101> of you

shall have an ass <3688> or <2228> an ox <1016> fallen <1706>

into <1519> a pit <5421>, and will not straightway <2112> pull

<0385> him out on <1722> the sabbath <4521> day <2250>?

6 And they could <2480> not answer <0470> him again <0470> to

these <5023> things.

7. And he put <3004> forth <3004> a parable <3850> to those

<3588> which were bidden <2564>, when he marked <1907> how

<4459> they chose <1586> out the chief <4411> rooms <4411>;

saying <3004> unto them,

8 When <3752> thou art bidden <2564> of any <5100> [man] to a

wedding <1062>, sit <2625> not down <2625> in the highest <4411>

room <4411>; lest <3379> a more honourable <1784> man than thou

be bidden <2564> of him;

9 And he that bade <2564> thee and him come <2064> and say

<2046> to thee, Give <1325> this <5129> man place <5117>; and

thou begin <0756> with shame <0152> to take <2722> the lowest

<2078> room <5117>.

10 But when <3752> thou art bidden <2564>, go <4198> and sit

<0377> down <0377> in the lowest <2078> room <5117>; that when

<3752> he that bade <2564> thee cometh <2064>, he may say <2036>

unto thee, Friend <5384>, go <4320> up higher <0511>: then

<5119> shalt thou have <2071> worship <1391> in the presence

<1799> of them that sit <4873> at <4873> meat with thee.

11 For whosoever <3588> exalteth <5312> himself <1438> shall

be abased <5013>; and he that humbleth <5013> himself <1438>

shall be exalted <5312>.

12 Then <1161> said <3004> he also <2532> to him that bade

<2564> him, When <3752> thou makest <4160> a dinner <0712> or

<2228> a supper <1173>, call <5455> not thy friends <5384>, nor

<3364> thy brethren <0080>, neither <3366> thy kinsmen <4773>,

nor <3364> [thy] rich <4145> neighbours <1069>; lest <3379> they

also <2532> bid <0479> thee again <0479>, and a recompence

<0468> be made <1096> thee.

13 But when <3752> thou makest <4160> a feast <1403>, call

<2564> the poor <4434>, the maimed <0376>, the lame <5560>, the

blind <5185>:

14 And thou shalt be blessed <3107>; for they cannot <2192>

recompense <0467> thee: for thou shalt be recompensed <0467> at

<1722> the resurrection <0386> of the just <1342>.

15. And when one <5100> of them that sat <4873> at <4873> meat

with him heard <0191> these <5023> things, he said <2036> unto

him, Blessed <3107> [is] he that shall eat <5315> bread <0740>

in the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>.

16 Then <1161> said <2036> he unto him, A certain <5100> man

<0444> made <4160> a great <3173> supper <1173>, and bade <2564>

many <4183>:

17 And sent <0649> his servant <1401> at supper <1173> time

<5610> to say <2036> to them that were bidden <2564>, Come

<2064>; for all <3956> things are now <2236> ready <2092>.

18 And they all <3956> with one <3391> [consent] began <0756>

to make <3868> excuse <3868>. The first <4413> said <2036> unto

him, I have bought <0059> a piece of ground <0068>, and I must

<2192> needs <0318> go <1831> and see <1492> it: I pray <2065>

thee have <2192> me excused <3868>.

19 And another <2087> said <2036>, I have bought <0059> five

<4002> yoke <2201> of oxen <1016>, and I go <4198> to prove

<1381> them: I pray <2065> thee have <2192> me excused.

20 And another <2087> said <2036>, I have married <1060> a

wife <1135>, and therefore <5124> I cannot <1410> come <2064>.

21 So <2532> that servant <1401> came <3854>, and shewed

<0518> his lord <2962> these <5023> things. Then <5119> the

master <3617> of the house <3617> being angry <3710> said <2036>

to his servant <1401>, Go <1831> out quickly <5030> into <1519>

the streets <4113> and lanes <4505> of the city <4172>, and

bring <1521> in hither <5602> the poor <4434>, and the maimed

<0376>, and the halt <5560>, and the blind <5185>.

22 And the servant <1401> said <2036>, Lord <2962>, it is done

<1096> as thou hast commanded <2004>, and yet <2089> there is

room <5117>.

23 And the lord <2962> said <2036> unto the servant <1401>, Go

<1831> out into <1519> the highways <3598> and hedges <5418>,

and compel <0315> [them] to come <1525> in, that my house <3624>

may be filled <1072>.

24 For I say <3004> unto you, That none <3762> of those <1565>

men <0435> which <3588> were bidden <2564> shall taste <1089> of

my supper <1173>.

25. And there went <4848> great <4183> multitudes <3793> with

him: and he turned <4762>, and said <2036> unto them,

26 If <1487> any <1536> [man] come <2064> to me, and hate

<3404> not his father <3962>, and mother <3384>, and wife <1135>,

and children <5043>, and brethren <0080>, and sisters <0079>,

yea <2089>, and his own <1438> life <5590> also <2532>, he

cannot <1410> be my disciple <3101>.

27 And whosoever <3748> doth not bear <0941> his cross <4716>,

and come <2064> after <3694> me, cannot <1410> be my disciple

<3101>.

28 For which <5101> of you, intending <2309> to build <3618> a

tower <4444>, sitteth <2523> not down <2523> first <4412>, and

counteth <5585> the cost <1160>, whether <1487> he have <2192>

[sufficient] to finish <0535> [it]?

29 Lest <3361> haply <3379>, after he hath laid <5087> the

foundation <2310>, and is not able <2480> to finish <1615> [it],

all <3956> that behold <2334> [it] begin <0756> to mock <1702>

him,

30 Saying <3004>, This <3778> man <0444> began <0756> to build

<3618>, and was not able <2480> to finish <1615>.

31 Or <2228> what <5101> king <0935>, going <4198> to make

<4820> war <4171> against another <2087> king <0935>, sitteth

<2523> not down <2523> first <4412>, and consulteth <1011>

whether <1487> he be able <1415> with ten <1176> thousand <5505>

to meet <0528> him that cometh <2064> against <1909> him with

twenty <1501> thousand <5505>?

32 Or <1161> else <1490>, while the other <0846> is yet <2089>

a great way <4206> off, he sendeth <0649> an ambassage <4242>,

and desireth <2065> conditions <4314> of peace <1515>.

33 So <3767> likewise <3779>, whosoever <3956> he be of you

that forsaketh <0657> not all <3956> that he hath <5224>, he

cannot <1410> be my disciple <3101>.

34 Salt <0217> [is] good <2570>: but if <1437> the salt <0217>

have lost <3471> his savour <3471>, wherewith <5101> shall it be

seasoned <0741>?

35 It is neither <3777> fit <2111> for the land <1093>, nor

<3777> yet for the dunghill <2874>; [but] men cast <0906> it out.

He that hath <2192> ears <3775> to hear <0191>, let him hear

<0191>.

Luke 15

1. Then <1161> drew near <1448> unto him all <3956> the

publicans <5052> and sinners <0268> for to hear <0191> him.

2 And the Pharisees <5330> and scribes <1122> murmured <1234>,

saying <3004>, This <3778> man receiveth <4327> sinners <0268>,

and eateth <4906> with them.

3 And he spake <2036> this <5026> parable <3850> unto them,

saying <3004>,

4 What <5101> man <0444> of you, having <2192> an hundred

<1540> sheep <4263>, if he lose <0622> one <1520> of them, doth

not leave <2641> the ninety <1768> and nine <1768> in the

wilderness <2048>, and go <4198> after <1909> that which is lost

<0622>, until <2193> he find <2147> it?

5 And when he hath found <2147> [it], he layeth <2007> [it] on

<1909> his shoulders <5606>, rejoicing <5463>.

6 And when he cometh <2064> home <3624>, he calleth <4779>

together <4779> [his] friends <5384> and neighbours <1069>,

saying <3004> unto them, Rejoice <4796> with me; for I have

found <2147> my sheep <4263> which <3588> was lost <0622>.

7 I say <3004> unto you, that likewise <3779> joy <5479> shall

be in heaven <3772> over <1909> one <1520> sinner <0268> that

repenteth <3340>, more than <2228> over <1909> ninety <1768> and

nine <1768> just <1342> persons, which <3748> need <5532> no

<3756> repentance <3341>.

8 Either <2228> what <5101> woman <1135> having <2192> ten

<1176> pieces <1406> of silver <1406>, if <1437> she lose <0622>

one <3391> piece <1406>, doth not light <0681> a candle <3088>,

and sweep <4563> the house <3614>, and seek <2212> diligently

<1960> till <2193> she find <2147> [it]?

9 And when she hath found <2147> [it], she calleth <4779>

[her] friends <5384> and [her] neighbours <1069> together <4779>,

saying <3004>, Rejoice <4796> with me; for I have found <2147>

the piece <1406> which <3739> I had lost <0622>.

10 Likewise <3779>, I say <3004> unto you, there is joy <5479>

in the presence <1799> of the angels <0032> of God <2316> over

<1909> one <1520> sinner <0268> that repenteth <3340>.

11. And he said <2036>, A certain <5100> man <0444> had <2192>

two <1417> sons <5207>:

12 And the younger <3501> of them said <2036> to [his] father

<3962>, Father <3962>, give <1325> me the portion <3313> of

goods <3776> that falleth <1911> [to me]. And he divided <1244>

unto them [his] living <0979>.

13 And not many <4183> days <2250> after <3326> the younger

<3501> son <5207> gathered <4863> all <0537> together <4863>,

and took <0589> his journey <0589> into <1519> a far <3117>

country <5561>, and there <1563> wasted <1287> his substance

<3776> with riotous <0811> living <2198>.

14 And when he had spent <1159> all <3956>, there arose <1096>

a mighty <2478> famine <3042> in that land <5561>; and he began

<0756> to be in want <5302>.

15 And he went <4198> and joined <2853> himself to a citizen

<4177> of that country <5561>; and he sent <3992> him into

<1519> his fields <0068> to feed <1006> swine <5519>.

16 And he would fain <1937> have filled <1072> his belly

<2836> with the husks <2769> that the swine <5519> did eat

<2068>: and no <3762> man <3762> gave <1325> unto him.

17 And when he came <2064> to himself <1438>, he said <2036>,

How <4214> many <4214> hired <3407> servants <3407> of my

father's <3962> have bread <0740> enough <4052> and to spare

<4052>, and I perish <0622> with hunger <3042>!

18 I will arise <0450> and go <4198> to my father <3962>, and

will say <2046> unto him, Father <3962>, I have sinned <0264>

against <1519> heaven <3772>, and before <1799> thee,

19 And am <1510> no <3765> more <3765> worthy <0514> to be

called <2564> thy son <5207>: make <4160> me as one <1520> of

thy hired <3407> servants <3407>.

20 And he arose <0450>, and came <2064> to his father <3962>.

But when he was yet <2089> a great <3112> way <3112> off <0568>,

his father <3962> saw <1492> him, and had compassion <4697>, and

ran <5143>, and fell <1968> on <1909> his neck <5137>, and

kissed <2705> him.

21 And the son <5207> said <2036> unto him, Father <3962>, I

have sinned <0264> against <1519> heaven <3772>, and in thy

sight <1799>, and am <1510> no <3765> more <3765> worthy <0514>

to be called <2564> thy son <5207>.

22 But the father <3962> said <2036> to his servants <1401>,

Bring <1627> forth <1627> the best <4413> robe <4749>, and put

<1746> [it] on <1746> him; and put <1325> a ring <1146> on

<1519> his hand <5495>, and shoes <5266> on <1519> [his] feet

<4228>:

23 And bring <5342> hither the fatted <4618> calf <3448>, and

kill <2380> [it]; and let us eat <5315>, and be merry <2165>:

24 For this <3778> my son <5207> was dead <3498>, and is alive

<0326> again <0326>; he was lost <0622>, and is found <2147>.

And they began <0756> to be merry <2165>.

25 Now <1161> his elder <4245> son <5207> was in the field

<0068>: and as he came <2064> and drew nigh <1448> to the house

<3614>, he heard <0191> musick <4858> and dancing <5525>.

26 And he called <4341> one <1520> of the servants <3816>, and

asked <4441> what <5101> these <5023> things meant <1498>.

27 And he said <2036> unto him, Thy brother <0080> is come

<2240>; and thy father <3962> hath killed <2380> the fatted

<4618> calf <3448>, because <3754> he hath received <0618> him

safe <5198> and sound <5198>.

28 And he was angry <3710>, and would <2309> not go <1525> in:

therefore <3767> came <1831> his father <3962> out, and

intreated <3870> him.

29 And he answering <0611> said <2036> to [his] father <3962>,

Lo <2400>, these <5118> many <5118> years <2094> do I serve

<1398> thee, neither <3763> transgressed <3928> I at <3763> any

<3763> time thy commandment <1785>: and yet thou never <3763>

gavest <1325> me a kid <2056>, that I might make <2165> merry

<2165> with my friends <5384>:

30 But as soon <3753> as this <3778> thy son <5207> was come

<2064>, which <3588> hath devoured <2719> thy living <0979> with

harlots <4204>, thou hast killed <2380> for him the fatted

<4618> calf <3448>.

31 And he said <2036> unto him, Son <5043>, thou art <1488>

ever <3842> with me, and all <3956> that I have <1699> is thine

<4674>.

32 It was meet <1163> that we should make <2165> merry <2165>,

and be glad <5463>: for this <3778> thy brother <0080> was dead

<3498>, and is alive <0326> again <0326>; and was lost <0622>,

and is found <2147>.

Luke 16

1. And he said <3004> also <2532> unto his disciples <3101>,

There was a certain <5100> rich <4145> man <0444>, which <3739>

had <2192> a steward <3623>; and the same <3778> was accused

<1225> unto him that he had wasted <1287> his goods <5224>.

2 And he called <5455> him, and said <2036> unto him, How

<5101> is it that I hear <0191> this <5124> of thee? give <0591>

an account <3056> of thy stewardship <3622>; for thou mayest

<1410> be no <3756> longer <2089> steward <3621>.

3 Then <1161> the steward <3622> said <2036> within <1722>

himself <1438>, What <5101> shall I do <4160>? for my lord

<2962> taketh <0851> away <0851> from me the stewardship <3622>:

I cannot <2480> dig <4626>; to beg <1871> I am ashamed <0153>.

4 I am resolved <1097> what <5101> to do <4160>, that, when

<3752> I am put <3179> out of the stewardship <3622>, they may

receive <1209> me into <1519> their houses <3624>.

5 So <2532> he called <4341> every <1538> one <1520> of his

lord's <2962> debtors <5533> [unto him], and said <3004> unto

the first <4413>, How <4214> much <4214> owest <3784> thou unto

my lord <2962>?

6 And he said <2036>, An hundred <1540> measures <0942> of oil

<1637>. And he said <2036> unto him, Take <1209> thy bill <1121>,

and sit <2523> down <2523> quickly <5030>, and write <1125>

fifty <4004>.

7 Then <1899> said <2036> he to another <2087>, And how <4214>

much <4214> owest <3784> thou? And he said <2036>, An hundred

<1540> measures <2884> of wheat <4621>. And he said <3004> unto

him, Take <1209> thy bill <1121>, and write <1125> fourscore

<3589>.

8 And the lord <2962> commended <1867> the unjust <0093>

steward <3622>, because <3754> he had done <4160> wisely <5430>:

for the children <5207> of this <5127> world <0165> are in their

generation <1074> wiser <5429> than <5228> the children <5207>

of light <5457>.

9 And I say <3004> unto you, Make <4160> to yourselves <1438>

friends <5384> of the mammon <3126> of unrighteousness <0093>;

that, when <3752> ye fail <1587>, they may receive <1209> you

into <1519> everlasting <0166> habitations <4633>.

10 He that is faithful <4103> in that which is least <1646> is

faithful <4103> also <2532> in much <4183>: and he that is

unjust <0094> in the least <1646> is unjust <0094> also <2532>

in much <4183>.

11 If <1487> therefore <3767> ye have not been <1096> faithful

<4103> in the unrighteous <0094> mammon <3126>, who <5101> will

commit <4100> to your <5213> trust <4100> the true <0228>

[riches]?

12 And if <1487> ye have not been <1096> faithful <4103> in

that which is another <0245> man's <0245>, who <5101> shall give

<1325> you that which is your <5212> own?

13 No <3762> servant <3610> can <1410> serve <1398> two <1417>

masters <2962>: for either <2228> he will hate <3404> the one

<1520>, and love <0025> the other <2087>; or <2228> else he will

hold <0472> to the one <1520>, and despise <2706> the other

<2087>. Ye cannot <1410> serve <1398> God <2316> and mammon

<3126>.

14 And the Pharisees <5330> also <2532>, who were covetous

<5366>, heard <0191> all <3956> these <5023> things: and they

derided <1592> him.

15 And he said <2036> unto them, Ye are they which <3588>

justify <1344> yourselves <1438> before <1799> men <0444>; but

God <2316> knoweth <1097> your <5216> hearts <2588>: for that

which is highly <5308> esteemed among <1722> men <0444> is

abomination <0946> in the sight <1799> of God <2316>.

16 The law <3551> and the prophets <4396> [were] until <2193>

John <2491>: since <0575> that time <5119> the kingdom <0932> of

God <2316> is preached <2097>, and every <3956> man presseth

<0971> into <1519> it.

17 And it is easier <2123> for heaven <3772> and earth <1093>

to pass <3928>, than <2228> one <3391> tittle <2762> of the law

<3551> to fail <4098>.

18 Whosoever <3588> putteth <0630> away <0630> his wife <1135>,

and marrieth <1060> another <2087>, committeth <3431> adultery

<3431>: and whosoever <3588> marrieth <1060> her that is put

<0630> away <0630> from [her] husband <0435> committeth <3431>

adultery <3431>.

19. There was a certain <5100> rich <4145> man <0444>, which

<2532> was clothed <1737> in purple <4209> and fine linen <1040>,

and fared <2165> sumptuously <2988> every <2596> day <2250>:

20 And there was a certain <5100> beggar <4434> named <3686>

Lazarus <2976>, which <3739> was laid <0906> at <4314> his gate

<4440>, full of sores <1669>,

21 And desiring <1937> to be fed <5526> with the crumbs <5589>

which <3588> fell <4098> from the rich <4145> man's table <5132>:

moreover <2532> the dogs <2965> came <2064> and licked <0621>

his sores <1668>.

22 And it came <1096> to pass, that the beggar <4434> died

<0599>, and was carried <0667> by the angels <0032> into <1519>

Abraham's <0011>bosom <2859>: the rich <4145> man also <2532>

died <0599>, and was buried <2290>;

23 And in hell <0086> he lift <1869> up his eyes <3788>, being

<5225> in torments <0931>, and seeth <3708> Abraham <0011>afar

<3113> off <0575>, and Lazarus <2976> in his bosom <2859>.

24 And he cried <5455> and said <2036>, Father <3962> Abraham

<11>, have mercy <1653> on me, and send <3992> Lazarus <2976>,

that he may dip <0911> the tip <0206> of his finger <1147> in

water <5204>, and cool <2711> my tongue <1100>; for I am

tormented <3600> in this <5026> flame <5395>.

25 But Abraham <0011>said <2036>, Son <5043>, remember <3415>

that thou in thy lifetime <2222> receivedst <0618> thy good

<0018> things, and likewise <3668> Lazarus <2976> evil <2556>

things: but now <3568> he is comforted <3870>, and thou art

tormented <3600>.

26 And beside <1909> all <3956> this <5125>, between <3342> us

and you there is a great <3173> gulf <5490> fixed <4741>: so

<3704> that they which would <2309> pass <1224> from hence

<1782> to you cannot <1410>; neither <3366> can <1410> they pass

<1276> to us, that [would come] from thence <1564>.

27 Then <1161> he said <2036>, I pray <2065> thee therefore

<3767>, father <3962>, that thou wouldest send <3992> him to my

father's <3962> house <3624>:

28 For I have <2192> five <4002> brethren <0080>; that he may

testify <1263> unto them, lest <3361> they also <2532> come

<2064> into <1519> this <5126> place <5117> of torment <0931>.

29 Abraham <0011>saith <3004> unto him, They have <2192> Moses

<3475> and the prophets <4396>; let them hear <0191> them.

30 And he said <2036>, Nay <3780>, father <3962> Abraham <11>:

but if <1437> one <5100> went <4198> unto them from the dead

<3498>, they will repent <3340>.

31 And he said <2036> unto him, If <1487> they hear <0191> not

Moses <3475> and the prophets <4396>, neither <3761> will they

be persuaded <3982>, though <1437> one <5100> rose <0450> from

the dead <3498>.

Luke 17

1. Then <1161> said <2036> he unto the disciples <3101>, It is

impossible <0418> but that offences <4625> will come <2064>: but

woe <3759> [unto him], through <1223> whom <3739> they come

<2064>!

2 It were better <3081> for him that a millstone <3684> were

hanged <4029> about <4012> his neck <5137>, and he cast <4496>

into <1519> the sea <2281>, than <2228> that he should offend

<4624> one <1520> of these <5130> little <3398> ones.

3 Take heed <4337> to yourselves <1438>: If <1437> thy brother

<0080> trespass <0264> against <1519> thee, rebuke <2008> him;

and if <1437> he repent <3340>, forgive <0863> him.

4 And if <1437> he trespass <0264> against <1519> thee seven

<2034> times <2034> in a day <2250>, and seven <2034> times

<2034> in a day <2250> turn <1994> again <1994> to thee, saying

<3004>, I repent <3340>; thou shalt forgive <0863> him.

5 And the apostles <0652> said <2036> unto the Lord <2962>,

Increase <4369> our faith <4102>.

6 And the Lord <2962> said <2036>, If <1487> ye had <2192>

faith <4102> as a grain <2848> of mustard <4615> seed, ye might

say <3004> unto this <5026> sycamine <4807> tree, Be thou

plucked <1610> up by the root <1610>, and be thou planted <5452>

in the sea <2281>; and it should obey <5219> you.

7 But which <5101> of you, having <2192> a servant <1401>

plowing <0722> or <2228> feeding <4165> cattle <4165>, will say

<2046> unto him by and by, when he is come <1525> from the field

<0068>, Go <3928> and sit <0377> down <0377> to meat?

8 And will not rather say <2046> unto him, Make <2090> ready

<2090> wherewith <5101> I may sup <1172>, and gird <4024>

thyself, and serve <1247> me, till <2193> I have eaten <5315>

and drunken <4095>; and afterward <5023> thou shalt eat <5315>

and drink <4095>?

9 Doth he thank <5485> that servant <1401> because <3754> he

did <4160> the things that were commanded <1299> him? I trow

<1380> not.

10 So <3779> likewise <2532> ye, when <3752> ye shall have

done <4160> all <3956> those <3588> things which are commanded

<1299> you, say <3004>, We are unprofitable <0888> servants

<1401>: we have done <4160> that which <3739> was our duty

<3784> to do <4160>.

11. And it came <1096> to pass, as he went <4198> to Jerusalem

<2419>, that he passed <1330> through <1223> the midst <3319> of

Samaria <4540> and Galilee <1056>.

12 And as he entered <1525> into <1519> a certain <5100>

village <2968>, there met <0528> him ten <1176> men <0435> that

were lepers <3015>, which <3739> stood <2476> afar <4207> off:

13 And they lifted <0142> up [their] voices <5456>, and said

<3004>, Jesus <2424>, Master <1988>, have mercy <1653> on us.

14 And when he saw <1492> [them], he said <2036> unto them, Go

<4198> shew <1925> yourselves <1438> unto the priests <2409>.

And it came <1096> to pass, that, as they went <5217>, they were

cleansed <2511>.

15 And one <1520> of them, when he saw <1492> that he was

healed <2390>, turned <5290> back <5290>, and with a loud <3173>

voice <5456> glorified <1392> God <2316>,

16 And fell <4098> down on <1909> [his] face <4383> at <3844>

his feet <4228>, giving him thanks <2168>: and he was a

Samaritan <4541>.

17 And Jesus <2424> answering <0611> said <2036>, Were there

not ten <1176> cleansed <2511>? but where <4226> [are] the nine

<1767>?

18 There are not found <2147> that returned <5290> to give

<1325> glory <1391> to God <2316>, save <1508> this <3778>

stranger <0241>.

19 And he said <2036> unto him, Arise <0450>, go <4198> thy

way: thy faith <4102> hath made <4982> thee whole <4982>.

20. And when he was demanded <1905> of the Pharisees <5330>,

when <4218> the kingdom <0932> of God <2316> should come <2064>,

he answered <0611> them and said <2036>, The kingdom <0932> of

God <2316> cometh <2064> not with observation <3907>:

21 Neither <3761> shall they say <2046>, Lo <2400> here <5602>!

or <2228>, lo <2400> there <1563>! for, behold <2400>, the

kingdom <0932> of God <2316> is within <1787> you.

22 And he said <2036> unto the disciples <3101>, The days

<2250> will come <2064>, when <3753> ye shall desire <1937> to

see <1492> one <3391> of the days <2250> of the Son <5207> of

man <0444>, and ye shall not see <3700> [it].

23 And they shall say <2046> to you, See <2400> here <5602>;

or <2228>, see <2400> there <1563>: go <0565> not after [them],

nor <3364> follow <1377> [them].

24 For as the lightning <0796>, that lighteneth <0797> out of

the one [part] under <5259> heaven <3772>, shineth <2989> unto

the other [part] under <5259> heaven <3772>; so <3779> shall

also <2532> the Son <5207> of man <0444> be in his day <2250>.

25 But first <4412> must <1163> he suffer <3958> many <4183>

things, and be rejected <0593> of this <5026> generation <1074>.

26 And as it was in the days <2250> of Noe <3575>, so <3779>

shall it be also <2532> in the days <2250> of the Son <5207> of

man <0444>.

27 They did eat <2068>, they drank <4095>, they married <1060>

wives, they were given in marriage <1547>, until <0891> the day

<2250> that Noe <3575> entered <1525> into <1519> the ark <2787>,

and the flood <2627> came <2064>, and destroyed <0622> them all

<0537>.

28 Likewise <3668> also <2532> as it was in the days <2250> of

Lot <3091>; they did eat <2068>, they drank <4095>, they bought

<0059>, they sold <4453>, they planted <5452>, they builded

<3618>;

29 But the same day <2250> that Lot <3091> went <1831> out of

Sodom <4670> it rained <1026> fire <4442> and brimstone <2303>

from heaven <3772>, and destroyed <0622> [them] all <0537>.

30 Even thus <5024> shall it be in the day <2250> when the Son

<5207> of man <0444> is revealed <0601>.

31 In that day <2250>, he which <3739> shall be upon the

housetop <1430>, and his stuff <4632> in the house <3614>, let

him not come <2597> down <2597> to take <0142> it away: and he

that is in the field <0068>, let him likewise <3668> not return

<1994> back <3694>.

32 Remember <3421> Lot's wife <1135>.

33 Whosoever <1437> shall seek <2212> to save <4982> his life

<5590> shall lose <0622> it; and whosoever <1437> shall lose

<0622> his life <5590> shall preserve <2225> it.

34 I tell <3004> you, in that night <3571> there shall be two

<1417> [men] in one <3391> bed <2825>; the one <1520> shall be

taken <3880>, and the other <2087> shall be left <0863>.

35 Two <1417> [women] shall be grinding <0229> together <0846>;

the one <3391> shall be taken <3880>, and the other <2087> left

<0863>.

36 Two <1417> [men] shall be in the field <0068>; the one

<1520> shall be taken <3880>, and the other <2087> left <0863>.

37 And they answered <0611> and said <3004> unto him, Where

<4226>, Lord <2962>? And he said <2036> unto them, Wheresoever

<3699> the body <4983> [is], thither <1563> will the eagles

<0105> be gathered <4863> together <4863>.

Luke 18

1. And he spake <3004> a parable <3850> unto them [to this

<3588> end], that men ought <1163> always <3842> to pray <4336>,

and not to faint <1573>;

2 Saying <3004>, There was in a city <4172> a judge <2923>,

which feared <5399> not God <2316>, neither <3366> regarded

<1788> man <0444>:

3 And there was a widow <5503> in that city <4172>; and she

came <2064> unto him, saying <3004>, Avenge <1556> me of mine

<3450> adversary <0476>.

4 And he would <2309> not for a while <5550>: but afterward

<5023> he said <2036> within <1722> himself <1438>, Though

<1499> I fear <5399> not God <2316>, nor <3756> regard <1788>

man <0444>;

5 Yet <1065> because <1223> this <5026> widow <5503> troubleth

<2873> me, I will avenge <1556> her, lest <3361> by her

continual <5056> coming <2064> she weary <5299> me.

6 And the Lord <2962> said <2036>, Hear <0191> what <5101> the

unjust <0093> judge <2923> saith <3004>.

7 And shall not God <2316> avenge <1557> his own elect <1588>,

which <3588> cry <0994> day <2250> and night <3571> unto him,

though <2532> he bear <3114> long <3114> with them?

8 I tell <3004> you that he will avenge <1557> them speedily

<5034>. Nevertheless <4133> when the Son <5207> of man <0444>

cometh <2064>, shall he find <2147> faith <4102> on <1909> the

earth <1093>?

9. And he spake <2036> this <5026> parable <3850> unto certain

<5100> which <3588> trusted <3982> in themselves <1438> that

they were righteous <1342>, and despised <1848> others <3062>:

10 Two <1417> men <0444> went <0305> up into <1519> the temple

<2411> to pray <4336>; the one <1520> a Pharisee <5330>, and the

other <2087> a publican <5057>.

11 The Pharisee <5330> stood <2476> and prayed <4336> thus

<5023> with himself <1438>, God <2316>, I thank <2168> thee,

that I am <1510> not as other <3062> men <0444> [are],

extortioners <0727>, unjust <0094>, adulterers <3432>, or <2228>

even <2532> as this <3778> publican <5057>.

12 I fast <3522> twice <1364> in the week <4521>, I give

tithes <0586> of all <3956> that I possess <2932>.

13 And the publican <5057>, standing <2476> afar <3113> off,

would <2309> not lift <1869> up so <3761> much <3761> as [his]

eyes <3788> unto heaven <3772>, but smote <5180> upon his breast

<4738>, saying <3004>, God <2316> be merciful <2433> to me a

sinner <0268>.

14 I tell <3004> you, this <3778> man went <2597> down <2597>

to his house <3624> justified <1344> [rather] than <2228> the

other <1565>: for every <3956> one that exalteth <5312> himself

<1438> shall be abased <5013>; and he that humbleth <5013>

himself <1438> shall be exalted <5312>.

15. And they brought <4374> unto him also <2532> infants <1025>,

that he would touch <0680> them: but when [his] disciples

<3101> saw <1492> [it], they rebuked <2008> them.

16 But Jesus <2424> called <4341> them [unto him], and said

<2036>, Suffer <0863> little <3813> children <3813> to come

<2064> unto me, and forbid <2967> them not: for of such <5108>

is the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>.

17 Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, Whosoever <1437> shall

not receive <1209> the kingdom <0932> of God <2316> as a little

<3813> child <3813> shall in no <3364> wise enter <1525> therein

<0846>.

18. And a certain <5100> ruler <0758> asked <1905> him, saying

<3004>, Good <0018> Master <1320>, what <5101> shall I do <4160>

to inherit <2816> eternal <0166> life <2222>?

19 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, Why <5101> callest

<3004> thou me good <0018>? none <3762> [is] good <0018>, save

<1508> one <1520>, [that is], God <2316>.

20 Thou knowest <1492> the commandments <1785>, Do not commit

<3431> adultery <3431>, Do not kill <5407>, Do not steal <2813>,

Do not bear <5576> false <5576> witness <5576>, Honour <5091>

thy father <3962> and thy mother <3384>.

21 And he said <2036>, All <3956> these <5023> have I kept

<5442> from my youth <3503> up.

22 Now <1161> when Jesus <2424> heard <0191> these <5023>

things, he said <2036> unto him, Yet <2089> lackest <3007> thou

one <1520> thing: sell <4453> all <3956> that thou hast <2192>,

and distribute <1239> unto the poor <4434>, and thou shalt have

<2192> treasure <2344> in heaven <3772>: and come <1204>, follow

<0190> me.

23 And when he heard <0191> this <5023>, he was very <4970>

sorrowful <4036>: for he was very <4970> rich <4145>.

24 And when Jesus <2424> saw <1492> that he was very <4036>

sorrowful <4036>, he said <2036>, How <4459> hardly <1423> shall

they that have <2192> riches <5536> enter <1525> into <1519> the

kingdom <0932> of God <2316>!

25 For it is easier <2123> for a camel <2574> to go <1525>

through <1223> a needle's <4476> eye <5168>, than <2228> for a

rich <4145> man to enter <1525> into <1519> the kingdom <0932>

of God <2316>.

26 And they that heard <0191> [it] said <2036>, Who <5101>

then <2532> can <1410> be saved <4982>?

27 And he said <2036>, The things which are impossible <0102>

with men <0444> are possible <1415> with God <2316>.

28 Then <1161> Peter <4074> said <2036>, Lo <2400>, we have

left <0863> all <3956>, and followed <0190> thee.

29 And he said <2036> unto them, Verily <0281> I say <3004>

unto you, There is no <3762> man <3762> that hath left <0863>

house <3614>, or <2228> parents <1118>, or <2228> brethren

<0080>, or <2228> wife <1135>, or <2228> children <5043>, for

the kingdom <0932> of God's <2316> sake <1752>,

30 Who <3739> shall not receive <0618> manifold <4179> more

<4179> in this <5129> present time <2540>, and in the world

<0165> to come <2064> life <2222> everlasting <0166>.

31. Then <1161> he took <3830> [unto him] the twelve <1427>,

and said <2036> unto them, Behold <2400>, we go <0305> up to

Jerusalem <2414>, and all <3956> things that are written <1125>

by the prophets <4396> concerning the Son <5207> of man <0444>

shall be accomplished <5055>.

32 For he shall be delivered <3860> unto the Gentiles <1484>,

and shall be mocked <1702>, and spitefully <5195> entreated

<5195>, and spitted <1716> on <1716>:

33 And they shall scourge <3164> [him], and put <0615> him to

death <0615>: and the third <5154> day <2250> he shall rise

<0450> again <0450>.

34 And they understood <4920> none <3762> of these <5130>

things: and this <5124> saying <4487> was hid <2928> from them,

neither <3756> knew <1097> they the things which were spoken

<3004>.

35. And it came <1096> to pass, that as he was come <1448> nigh

<1448> unto Jericho <2410>, a certain <5100> blind <5185> man

sat <2521> by the way <3598> side <3844> begging <4319>:

36 And hearing <0191> the multitude <3793> pass <1279> by, he

asked <4441> what <5101> it meant <1498>.

37 And they told <0518> him, that Jesus <2424> of Nazareth

<3478> passeth <3928> by.

38 And he cried <0994>, saying <3004>, Jesus <2424>, [thou]

Son <5207> of David <1138>, have mercy <1653> on me.

39 And they which went <4254> before <4254> rebuked <2008> him,

that he should hold <4623> his peace <4623>: but he cried

<2896> so <3123> much <4183> the more <3123>, [Thou] Son <5207>

of David <1138>, have mercy <1653> on me.

40 And Jesus <2424> stood <2476>, and commanded <2750> him to

be brought <0071> unto him: and when he was come <1448> near

<1448>, he asked <1905> him,

41 Saying <3004>, What <5101> wilt <2309> thou that I shall do

<4160> unto thee? And he said <2036>, Lord <2962>, that I may

receive <0308> my sight <0308>.

42 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, Receive <0308> thy

sight <0308>: thy faith <4102> hath saved <4982> thee.

43 And immediately <3916> he received <0308> his sight <0308>,

and followed <0190> him, glorifying <1392> God <2316>: and all

<3956> the people <2992>, when they saw <1492> [it], gave <1325>

praise <0136> unto God <2316>.

Luke 19

1. And [Jesus] entered <1525> and passed <1330> through <1330>

Jericho <2410>.

2 And, behold <2400>, [there was] a man <0435> named <2564>

Zacchaeus <2195>, which <0846> was the chief <0754> among the

publicans <0754>, and he was rich <4145>.

3 And he sought <2212> to see <1492> Jesus <2424> who <5101>

he was; and could <1410> not for the press <3793>, because

<3754> he was little <3398> of stature <2244>.

4 And he ran <4390> before <1715>, and climbed <0305> up into

<1909> a sycomore <4809> tree <4809> to see <1492> him: for he

was to pass <1330> that [way].

5 And when <5613> Jesus <2424> came <2064> to the place <5117>,

he looked <0308> up, and saw <1492> him, and said <2036> unto

him, Zacchaeus <2195>, make <4692> haste <4692>, and come <2597>

down <2597>; for to day <4594> I must <1163> abide <3306> at

<1722> thy house <3624>.

6 And he made <4692> haste <4692>, and came <2597> down <2597>,

and received <5264> him joyfully <5463>.

7 And when they saw <1492> [it], they all <0537> murmured

<1234>, saying <3004>, That he was gone <1525> to be guest

<2647> with a man <0435> that is a sinner <0268>.

8 And Zacchaeus <2195> stood <2476>, and said <2036> unto the

Lord <2962>; Behold <2400>, Lord <2962>, the half <2255> of my

goods <5224> I give <1325> to the poor <4434>; and if <1487> I

have taken any <5100> thing from any <1536> man by false <4811>

accusation <4811>, I restore <0591> [him] fourfold <5073>.

9 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, This <4594> day

<4594> is salvation <4991> come <1096> to this <5129> house

<3624>, forsomuch <2530> as he also <2532> is a son <5207> of

Abraham <11>.

10 For the Son <5207> of man <0444> is come <2064> to seek

<2212> and to save <4982> that which was lost <0622>.

11. And as they heard <0191> these <5023> things, he added

<4369> and spake <2036> a parable <3850>, because <1223> he was

nigh <1451> to Jerusalem <2419>, and because they thought <1380>

that the kingdom <0932> of God <2316> should <3195> immediately

<3916> appear <0398>.

12 He said <2036> therefore <3767>, A certain <5100> nobleman

<0444> went <4198> into <1519> a far <3117> country <5561> to

receive <2983> for himself <1438> a kingdom <0932>, and to

return <5290>.

13 And he called <2564> his ten <1176> servants <1401>, and

delivered <1325> them ten <1176> pounds <3414>, and said <2036>

unto them, Occupy <4231> till <2193> I come <2064>.

14 But his citizens <4177> hated <3404> him, and sent <0649> a

message <4242> after <3694> him, saying <3004>, We will <2309>

not have this <5126> [man] to reign <0936> over <1909> us.

15 And it came <1096> to pass, that when <3588> he was

returned <1880>, having received <2983> the kingdom <0932>, then

<1532> he commanded <2036> these <5128> servants <1401> to be

called <5455> unto him, to whom <3739> he had given <1325> the

money <0694>, that he might know <1097> how <5101> much every

<5101> man had gained <1281> by trading <1281>.

16 Then <1161> came <3854> the first <4413>, saying <3004>,

Lord <2962>, thy pound <3414> hath gained <4333> ten <1176>

pounds <3414>.

17 And he said <2036> unto him, Well <2095>, thou good <0018>

servant <1401>: because <3754> thou hast been <1096> faithful

<4103> in a very <1646> little <1646>, have <2192> thou

authority <1849> over <1883> ten <1176> cities <4172>.

18 And the second <1208> came <2064>, saying <3004>, Lord

<2962>, thy pound <3414> hath gained <4160> five <4002> pounds

<3414>.

19 And he said <2036> likewise <2532> to him, Be thou also

<2532> over <1883> five <4002> cities <4172>.

20 And another <2087> came <2064>, saying <3004>, Lord <2962>,

behold <2400>, [here is] thy pound <3414>, which <3739> I have

kept <2192> laid <0606> up in a napkin <4676>:

21 For I feared <5399> thee, because <3754> thou art an

austere <0840> man <0444>: thou takest <0142> up that thou

layedst <5087> not down, and reapest <2325> that thou didst not

sow <4687>.

22 And he saith <3004> unto him, Out of thine <4675> own mouth

<4750> will I judge <2919> thee, [thou] wicked <4190> servant

<1401>. Thou knewest <1492> that I was an austere <0840> man

<0444>, taking <0142> up that I laid <5087> not down, and

reaping <2325> that I did not sow <4687>:

23 Wherefore <1302> then <2532> gavest <1325> not thou my

money <0694> into <1909> the bank <5132>, that at my coming

<2064> I might have required <4238> mine <0846> own with usury

<5110>?

24 And he said <2036> unto them that stood <3936> by, Take

<0142> from him the pound <3414>, and give <1325> [it] to him

that hath <2192> ten <1176> pounds <3414>.

25 (And they said <2036> unto him, Lord <2962>, he hath <2192>

ten <1176> pounds <3414>.)

26 For I say <3004> unto you, That unto every <3956> one which

<3588> hath <2192> shall be given <1325>; and from him that hath

<2192> not, even <2532> that he hath <2192> shall be taken

<0142> away from him.

27 But those <1565> mine <3450> enemies <2190>, which <3588>

would <2309> not that I should reign <0936> over <1909> them,

bring <0071> hither <5602>, and slay <2695> [them] before <1715>

me.

28. And when he had thus <5023> spoken <2036>, he went <4198>

before <1715>, ascending <0305> up to Jerusalem <2414>.

29 And it came <1096> to pass, when <5613> he was come <1448>

nigh <1448> to Bethphage <0967> and Bethany <0963>, at <4314>

the mount <3735> called <2564> [the mount] of Olives <1636>, he

sent <0649> two <1417> of his disciples <3101>,

30 Saying <2036>, Go <5217> ye into <1519> the village <2968>

over <2713> against <2713> [you]; in the which <3739> at <1531>

your entering <1531> ye shall find <2147> a colt <4454> tied

<1210>, whereon <3739> yet never <3762> man <0444> sat <2523>:

loose <3089> him, and bring <0071> [him hither].

31 And if <1437> any <5100> man ask <2065> you, Why <1302> do

ye loose <3089> [him]? thus <3779> shall ye say <2046> unto him,

Because <3754> the Lord <2962> hath <2192> need <5532> of him.

32 And they that were sent <0649> went <0565> their way, and

found <2147> even <2531> as he had said <2036> unto them.

33 And as they were loosing <3089> the colt <4454>, the owners

<2962> thereof said <2036> unto them, Why <5101> loose <3089> ye

the colt <4454>?

34 And they said <2036>, The Lord <2962> hath <2192> need

<5532> of him.

35 And they brought <0071> him to Jesus <2424>: and they cast

<1977> their garments <2440> upon the colt <4454>, and they set

<1913> Jesus <2424> thereon <1913>.

36 And as he went <4198>, they spread <5291> their clothes

<2440> in the way <3598>.

37 And when he was come <1448> nigh <1448>, even <2536> now

<2236> at <4314> the descent <2600> of the mount <3735> of

Olives <1636>, the whole <0537> multitude <4128> of the

disciples <3101> began <0756> to rejoice <5463> and praise

<0134> God <2316> with a loud <3173> voice <5456> for all <3956>

the mighty <1411> works that they had seen <1492>;

38 Saying <3004>, Blessed <2127> [be] the King <0935> that

cometh <2064> in the name <3686> of the Lord <2962>: peace

<1515> in heaven <3772>, and glory <1391> in the highest <5310>.

39 And some <5100> of the Pharisees <5330> from among the

multitude <3793> said <2036> unto him, Master <1320>, rebuke

<2008> thy disciples <3101>.

40 And he answered <0611> and said <2036> unto them, I tell

<3004> you that, if <1437> these <3778> should hold <4623> their

peace <4623>, the stones <3037> would immediately cry <2896> out.

41. And when <5613> he was come <1448> near <1448>, he beheld

<1492> the city <4172>, and wept <2799> over <1909> it,

42 Saying <3004>, If <1487> thou hadst known <1097>, even

<2532> thou, at <1065> least <2534> in this <5026> thy day

<2250>, the things [which belong] unto thy peace <1515>! but now

<3568> they are hid <2928> from thine <4675> eyes <3788>.

43 For the days <2250> shall come <2240> upon thee, that thine

<4675> enemies <2190> shall cast <4016> a trench <5482> about

<4016> thee, and compass <4033> thee round <4033>, and keep

<4912> thee in on <3840> every <3840> side <3840>,

44 And shall lay <1474> thee even with the ground <1474>, and

thy children <5043> within <1722> thee; and they shall not leave

<0863> in thee one stone <3037> upon another; because <3739>

thou knewest <1097> not the time <2540> of thy visitation <1984>.

45 And he went <1525> into <1519> the temple <2411>, and began

<0756> to cast <1544> out them that sold <4453> therein <0846>,

and them that bought <0059>;

46 Saying <3004> unto them, It is written <1125>, My house

<3624> is the house <3624> of prayer <4335>: but ye have made

<4160> it a den <4693> of thieves <3027>.

47 And he taught <1321> daily <2250> in the temple <2411>. But

the chief <0749> priests <0749> and the scribes <1122> and the

chief <4413> of the people <2992> sought <2212> to destroy

<0622> him,

48 And could not find <2147> what <5101> they might do <4160>:

for all <0537> the people <2992> were very <1582> attentive

<1582> to hear <0191> him.

Luke 20

1. And it came <1096> to pass, [that] on <1722> one <3391> of

those <1565> days <2250>, as he taught <1321> the people <2992>

in the temple <2411>, and preached <2097> the gospel <2097>, the

chief <0749> priests <0749> and the scribes <1122> came <2186>

upon [him] with the elders <4245>,

2 And spake <2036> unto him, saying <3004>, Tell <2036> us, by

what <4169> authority <1849> doest <4160> thou these <5023>

things? or <2228> who <5101> is he that gave <1325> thee this

<5026> authority <1849>?

3 And he answered <0611> and said <2036> unto them, I will

also <2504> ask <2065> you one <1520> thing <3056>; and answer

<2036> me:

4 The baptism <0908> of John <2491>, was it from heaven <3772>,

or <2228> of men <0444>?

5 And they reasoned <4817> with themselves <1438>, saying

<3004>, If <1437> we shall say <2036>, From heaven <3772>; he

will say <2046>, Why <1302> then <3767> believed <4100> ye him

not?

6 But and if <1437> we say <2036>, Of men <0444>; all <3956>

the people <2992> will stone <2642> us: for they be persuaded

<3982> that John <2491> was a prophet <4396>.

7 And they answered <0611>, that they could <5342> not tell

<1492> whence <4159> [it was].

8 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto them, Neither <3761> tell

<3004> I you by what <4169> authority <1849> I do <4160> these

<5023> things.

9. Then <1161> began <0756> he to speak <3004> to the people

<2992> this <5026> parable <3850>; A certain <5100> man <0444>

planted <5452> a vineyard <0290>, and let <1554> it forth <1554>

to husbandmen <1092>, and went <0589> into a far country <0589>

for a long <2425> time <5550>.

10 And at <1722> the season <2540> he sent <0640> a servant

<1401> to the husbandmen <1092>, that they should give <1325>

him of the fruit <2590> of the vineyard <0290>: but the

husbandmen <1092> beat <1194> him, and sent <1821> [him] away

<1821> empty <2756>.

11 And again <4388> he sent <3992> another <2087> servant

<1401>: and they beat <1194> him also <2528>, and entreated

<0818> [him] shamefully <0818>, and sent <1821> [him] away

<1821> empty <2756>.

12 And again <4388> he sent <3992> a third <5154>: and they

wounded <5135> him also <2532>, and cast <1544> [him] out.

13 Then <1161> said <2036> the lord <2962> of the vineyard

<0290>, What <5101> shall I do <4160>? I will send <3992> my

beloved <0027> son <5207>: it may <2481> be they will reverence

<1788> [him] when they see <1492> him.

14 But when the husbandmen <1092> saw <1492> him, they

reasoned <1260> among <4314> themselves <1438>, saying <3004>,

This <3778> is the heir <2818>: come <1205>, let us kill <0615>

him, that the inheritance <2817> may be ours <2257>.

15 So <2532> they cast <1544> him out of the vineyard <0290>,

and killed <0615> [him]. What <5101> therefore <3767> shall the

lord <2962> of the vineyard <0290> do <4160> unto them?

16 He shall come <2064> and destroy <0622> these <5128>

husbandmen <1092>, and shall give <1325> the vineyard <0290> to

others <0243>. And when they heard <0191> [it], they said <2036>,

God <1096> forbid <1096>.

17 And he beheld <1689> them, and said <2036>, What <5101> is

this <5124> then <3767> that is written <1125>, The stone <3037>

which <3739> the builders <3618> rejected <0593>, the same

<3778> is become <1519> the head <2776> of the corner <1137>?

18 Whosoever <3588> shall fall <4098> upon that stone <3037>

shall be broken <4917>; but on <1909> whomsoever <0302> it shall

fall <4098>, it will grind <3039> him to powder <3039>.

19 And the chief <0749> priests <0749> and the scribes <1122>

the same <0846> hour <5610> sought <2212> to lay <1911> hands

<5495> on <1909> him; and they feared <5399> the people <2992>:

for they perceived <1097> that he had spoken <2036> this <5026>

parable <3850> against <4314> them.

20. And they watched <3906> [him], and sent <0649> forth <0649>

spies <1455>, which should feign <5271> themselves <1438> just

<1342> men, that they might take <1949> hold <1949> of his words

<3056>, that so <1519> they might deliver <3860> him unto the

power <0746> and authority <1849> of the governor <2230>.

21 And they asked <1905> him, saying <3004>, Master <1320>, we

know <1492> that thou sayest <3004> and teachest <1321> rightly

<3723>, neither <3756> acceptest <2983> thou the person <4383>

[of any], but teachest <1321> the way <3598> of God <2316> truly

<0225>:

22 Is it lawful <1832> for us to give <1325> tribute <5411>

unto Caesar <2541>, or <2228> no <3756>?

23 But he perceived <2657> their craftiness <3834>, and said

<2036> unto them, Why <5101> tempt <3985> ye me?

24 Shew <1925> me a penny <1220>. Whose <5100> image <1504>

and superscription <1923> hath <2192> it? They answered <0611>

and said <2036>, Caesar's <2541>.

25 And he said <2036> unto them, Render <0591> therefore

<5106> unto Caesar <2541> the things which be Caesar's <2541>,

and unto God <2316> the things which be God's <2316>.

26 And they could <2480> not take <1949> hold <1949> of his

words <4487> before <1726> the people <2992>: and they marvelled

<2296> at <1909> his answer <0612>, and held <4601> their peace

<4601>.

27. Then <1161> came <4334> to [him] certain <5100> of the

Sadducees <4523>, which <3588> deny <0483> that there is any

<3361> resurrection <0386>; and they asked <1905> him,

28 Saying <3004>, Master <1320>, Moses <3475> wrote <1125>

unto us, If <1437> any <5100> man's <5100> brother <0080> die

<0599>, having <2192> a wife <1135>, and he die <0599> without

<0815> children <0815>, that his brother <0080> should take

<2983> his wife <1135>, and raise <1817> up seed <4690> unto his

brother <0080>.

29 There were therefore <3767> seven <2033> brethren <0080>:

and the first <4413> took <2983> a wife <1135>, and died <0599>

without <0815> children <0815>.

30 And the second <1208> took <2983> her to wife <1135>, and

he died <0599> childless <0815>.

31 And the third <5154> took <2983> her; and in like <5615>

manner <5615> the seven <2033> also <2532>: and they left <2641>

no <3756> children <5043>, and died <0599>.

32 Last <5305> of all <3956> the woman <1135> died <0599> also

<2532>.

33 Therefore <3767> in the resurrection <0386> whose <5100>

wife <1135> of them is she? for seven <2033> had <2192> her to

wife <1135>.

34 And Jesus <2424> answering <0611> said <2036> unto them,

The children <5207> of this <5126> world <0165> marry <1060>,

and are given in marriage <1548>:

35 But they which shall be accounted <2661> worthy <2661> to

obtain <5177> that world <0165>, and the resurrection <0386>

from the dead <3498>, neither <3777> marry <1060>, nor <3777>

are given in marriage <1548>:

36 Neither <3777> can <1410> they die <0599> any <2089> more

<2089>: for they are equal <2465> unto the angels <2465>; and

are the children <5207> of God <2316>, being <5607> the children

<5207> of the resurrection <0386>.

37 Now <1161> that the dead <3498> are raised <1453>, even

<2532> Moses <3475> shewed <3377> at <1909> the bush <0942>,

when <5613> he calleth <3004> the Lord <2962> the God <2316> of

Abraham <11>, and the God <2316> of Isaac <2464>, and the God

<2316> of Jacob <2384>.

38 For he is not a God <2316> of the dead <3498>, but of the

living <2198>: for all <3956> live <2198> unto him.

39. Then <1161> certain <5100> of the scribes <1122> answering

<0611> said <2036>, Master <1320>, thou hast well <2573> said

<2036>.

40 And after <2089> that they durst <5111> not ask <1905> him

any <3762> [question at all].

41 And he said <2036> unto them, How <4459> say <2036> they

that Christ <5547> is David's <1138> son <5207>?

42 And David <1138> himself <0846> saith <3004> in the book

<0976> of Psalms <5568>, The LORD <2962> said <2036> unto my

Lord <2962>, Sit <2521> thou on <1537> my right <1188> hand,

43 Till <2193> I make <5087> thine <4675> enemies <2190> thy

footstool <5286>.

44 David <1138> therefore calleth <2564> him Lord <2962>, how

<4459> is he then <2532> his son <5207>?

45 Then <1161> in the audience <0191> of all <3956> the people

<2992> he said <2036> unto his disciples <3101>,

46 Beware <4337> of the scribes <1122>, which <3588> desire

<2309> to walk <4043> in long robes <4749>, and love <5368>

greetings <0783> in the markets <0058>, and the highest <4410>

seats <4410> in the synagogues <4864>, and the chief <4411>

rooms <4411> at <1722> feasts <1173>;

47 Which <3739> devour <2719> widows <5503>' houses <3614>,

and for a shew <4392> make <4336> long <3117> prayers <4336>:

the same <3778> shall receive <2983> greater <4055> damnation

<2917>.

Luke 21

1. And he looked <0308> up, and saw <1492> the rich <4145> men

casting <0906> their gifts <1435> into <1519> the treasury

<1049>.

2 And he saw <1492> also <2532> a certain <5100> poor <3998>

widow <5503> casting <0906> in thither <1563> two <1417> mites

<3016>.

3 And he said <2036>, Of a truth <0230> I say <3004> unto you,

that this <3778> poor <4434> widow <5503> hath cast <0906> in

more <4119> than they all <3956>:

4 For all <0537> these <3778> have of their abundance <4052>

cast <0906> in unto the offerings <1435> of God <2316>: but she

of her penury <5303> hath cast <0906> in all <0537> the living

<0979> that she had <2192>.

5. And as some <5100> spake <3004> of the temple <2411>, how

<3754> it was adorned <2885> with goodly <2573> stones <3037>

and gifts <0334>, he said <2036>,

6 [As for] these <5023> things which <3739> ye behold <2334>,

the days <2250> will come <2064>, in the which <3739> there

shall not be left <0863> one stone <3037> upon another, that

shall not be thrown <2647> down <2647>.

7 And they asked <1905> him, saying <3004>, Master <1320>, but

when <4218> shall these <5023> things be? and what <5101> sign

<4592> [will there be] when <3752> these <5023> things shall

come <1096> to pass?

8 And he said <2036>, Take heed <0991> that ye be not deceived

<4105>: for many <4183> shall come <2064> in my name <3686>,

saying <3004>, I am <1510> [Christ]; and the time <2540> draweth

near <1448>: go <4198> ye not therefore <3767> after <3694> them.

9 But when <3752> ye shall hear <0191> of wars <4171> and

commotions <0181>, be not terrified <4422>: for these <5023>

things must <1163> first <4412> come <1096> to pass; but the end

<5056> [is] not by and by.

10 Then <5119> said <3004> he unto them, Nation <1484> shall

rise <1453> against <1909> nation <1484>, and kingdom <0932>

against <1909> kingdom <0932>:

11 And great <3173> earthquakes <4578> shall be in divers

places <5117>, and famines <3042>, and pestilences <3061>; and

fearful <5400> sights <5400> and great <3173> signs <4591> shall

there be from heaven <3772>.

12 But before <4253> all <0537> these <5130>, they shall lay

<1911> their hands <5495> on <1909> you, and persecute <1377>

[you], delivering <3860> [you] up to the synagogues <4864>, and

into prisons <5438>, being brought <0071> before <1909> kings

<0935> and rulers <2232> for my name's <3686> sake <1752>.

13 And it shall turn <0576> to you for a testimony <3142>.

14 Settle <5087> [it] therefore <3767> in your <5216> hearts

<2588>, not to meditate <4304> before <4304> what ye shall

answer <0626>:

15 For I will give <1325> you a mouth <4750> and wisdom <4678>,

which <3739> all <3956> your <5213> adversaries <0480> shall

not be able <1410> to gainsay <0471> nor <3761> resist <0436>.

16 And ye shall be betrayed <3860> both <2532> by parents

<1118>, and brethren <0080>, and kinsfolks <4773>, and friends

<5384>; and [some] of you shall they cause <2289> to be put

<2289> to death <2289>.

17 And ye shall be hated <3404> of all <3956> [men] for my

name's <3686> sake.

18 But there shall not an hair <2359> of your <5216> head

<2776> perish <0622>.

19 In your <5216> patience <5281> possess <2932> ye your

<5216> souls <5590>.

20. And when <3752> ye shall see <1492> Jerusalem <2419>

compassed <2944> with armies <4760>, then <5119> know <1097>

that the desolation <2050> thereof <0846> is nigh <1448>.

21 Then <5119> let them which are in Judaea <2449> flee <5343>

to the mountains <3735>; and let them which are in the midst

<3319> of it depart <1633> out; and let not them that are in the

countries <5561> enter <1525> thereinto <0846>.

22 For these <3778> be the days <2250> of vengeance <1557>,

that all <3956> things which <3588> are written <1125> may be

fulfilled <4137>.

23 But woe <3759> unto them that are with child <1064>, and to

them that give suck <2337>, in those <1565> days <2250>! for

there shall be great <3173> distress <0318> in the land <1093>,

and wrath <3709> upon this <5129> people <2992>.

24 And they shall fall <4098> by the edge <4750> of the sword

<3162>, and shall be led <0163> away captive <0163> into <1519>

all <3956> nations <1484>: and Jerusalem <2419> shall be trodden

<3961> down of the Gentiles <1484>, until <0891> the times

<2540> of the Gentiles <1484> be fulfilled <4137>.

25 And there shall be signs <4591> in the sun <2246>, and in

the moon <4582>, and in the stars <0798>; and upon the earth

<1093> distress <4928> of nations <1484>, with perplexity <0640>;

the sea <2281> and the waves <4535> roaring <2278>;

26 Men's <0444> hearts <0674> failing <0674> them for fear

<5401>, and for looking <4329> after <4329> those <3588> things

which are coming <1904> on <1904> the earth <3625>: for the

powers <1411> of heaven <3772> shall be shaken <4531>.

27 And then <5119> shall they see <3700> the Son <5207> of man

<0444> coming <2064> in a cloud <3507> with power <1411> and

great <4183> glory <1391>.

28 And when these <5130> things begin <0756> to come <1096> to

pass, then look <0352> up, and lift <1869> up your <5216> heads

<2776>; for your <5216> redemption <0629> draweth nigh <1448>.

29. And he spake <2036> to them a parable <3850>; Behold <1492>

the fig <4808> tree <4808>, and all <3956> the trees <1186>;

30 When <3752> they now <2236> shoot <4261> forth <4261>, ye

see <0991> and know <1097> of your <1438> own selves <1438> that

summer <2330> is now <2236> nigh <1451> at <1451> hand.

31 So <3779> likewise <2532> ye, when <3752> ye see <1492>

these <5023> things come <1096> to pass, know <1097> ye that the

kingdom <0932> of God <2316> is nigh <1451> at <1451> hand.

32 Verily <0281> I say <3004> unto you, This <3778> generation

<1074> shall not pass <3928> away, till <2193> all <3956> be

fulfilled <1096>.

33 Heaven <3772> and earth <1093> shall pass <3928> away: but

my words <3056> shall not pass <3928> away.

34 And take heed <4337> to yourselves <1438>, lest <3379> at

<3379> any <3379> time <3379> your <5216> hearts <2588> be

overcharged <0925> with surfeiting <2897>, and drunkenness

<3178>, and cares <3308> of this life <0982>, and [so] that day

<2250> come <2186> upon you unawares <0160>.

35 For as a snare <3803> shall it come <1904> on <1909> all

<3956> them that dwell <2521> on <1909> the face <4383> of the

whole <3956> earth <1093>.

36 Watch <0069> ye therefore <3767>, and pray <1189> always

<2540>, that ye may be accounted <2661> worthy <2661> to escape

<1628> all <3956> these <5023> things that shall come <1096> to

pass, and to stand <2476> before <1715> the Son <5207> of man

<0444>.

37 And in the day <2250> time <2250> he was teaching <1321> in

the temple <2411>; and at <3571> night <3571> he went <1831> out,

and abode <0835> in the mount <3735> that is called <2564> [the

mount] of Olives <1636>.

38 And all <3956> the people <2992> came <3719> early <3719>

in the morning to him in the temple <2411>, for to hear <0191>

him.

Luke 22

1. Now <1161> the feast <1859> of unleavened <0106> bread drew

nigh <1448>, which is called <3004> the Passover <3957>.

2 And the chief <0749> priests <0749> and scribes <1122>

sought <2212> how <4459> they might kill <0337> him; for they

feared <5399> the people <2992>.

3 Then <1161> entered <1525> Satan <4567> into <1519> Judas

<2455> surnamed <1941> Iscariot <2469>, being <5607> of the

number <0706> of the twelve <1427>.

4 And he went <0565> his way, and communed <4814> with the

chief <0749> priests <0749> and captains <4755>, how <4459> he

might betray <3860> him unto them.

5 And they were glad <5463>, and covenanted <4934> to give

<1325> him money <0694>.

6 And he promised <1843>, and sought <2212> opportunity <2120>

to betray <3860> him unto them in the absence <0817> of the

multitude <3793>.

7. Then <1161> came <2064> the day <2250> of unleavened <0106>

bread, when <3739> the passover <3957> must <1163> be killed

<2380>.

8 And he sent <0649> Peter <4074> and John <2491>, saying

<2036>, Go <4198> and prepare <2090> us the passover <3957>,

that we may eat <5315>.

9 And they said <2036> unto him, Where <4226> wilt <2309> thou

that we prepare <2090>?

10 And he said <2036> unto them, Behold <2400>, when ye are

entered <1525> into <1519> the city <4172>, there shall a man

<0444> meet <4876> you, bearing <0941> a pitcher <2765> of water

<5204>; follow <0190> him into <1519> the house <3614> where

<3757> he entereth <1531> in.

11 And ye shall say <2046> unto the goodman <3617> of the

house <3614>, The Master <1320> saith <3004> unto thee, Where

<4226> is the guestchamber <2646>, where <3699> I shall eat

<5315> the passover <3957> with my disciples <3101>?

12 And he shall shew <1166> you a large <3173> upper <0508>

room furnished <4766>: there <1563> make <2090> ready <2090>.

13 And they went <0565>, and found <2147> as he had said

<2046> unto them: and they made <2090> ready <2090> the passover

<3957>.

14 And when <3588> the hour <5610> was come <1096>, he sat

<0377> down <0377>, and the twelve <1427> apostles <0652> with

him.

15 And he said <2036> unto them, With desire <1939> I have

desired <1939> to eat <5315> this <5124> passover <3957> with

you before <4253> I suffer <3958>:

16 For I say <3004> unto you, I will not any <3765> more

<3765> eat <5315> thereof <0846>, until <2193> it be fulfilled

<4137> in the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>.

17 And he took <1209> the cup <4221>, and gave thanks <2168>,

and said <2036>, Take <2983> this <5124>, and divide <1266> [it]

among yourselves <1438>:

18 For I say <3004> unto you, I will not drink <4095> of the

fruit <1081> of the vine <0288>, until <2193> the kingdom <0932>

of God <2316> shall come <2064>.

19 And he took <2983> bread <0740>, and gave thanks <2168>,

and brake <2806> [it], and gave <1325> unto them, saying <3004>,

This <5124> is my body <4983> which <3588> is given <1325> for

you: this <5124> do <4160> in remembrance <0362> of me.

20 Likewise <5615> also <2532> the cup <4221> after <3326>

supper <1172>, saying <3004>, This <5124> cup <4221> [is] the

new <2537> testament <1242> in my blood <0129>, which <3588> is

shed <1632> for you.

21. But, behold <2400>, the hand <5495> of him that betrayeth

<3860> me [is] with me on <1909> the table <5132>.

22 And truly <3303> the Son <5207> of man <0444> goeth <4198>,

as it was determined <3724>: but woe <3759> unto that man <0444>

by whom <3739> he is betrayed <3860>!

23 And they began <0756> to enquire <4802> among <4314>

themselves <1438>, which <5101> of them it was that should

<3195> do <4238> this <5124> thing.

24 And there was also <2532> a strife <5379> among <1722> them,

which <5101> of them should be accounted <1380> the greatest

<3187>.

25 And he said <2036> unto them, The kings <0935> of the

Gentiles <1484> exercise <2961> lordship <2961> over them; and

they that exercise <1850> authority <1850> upon them are called

<2564> benefactors <2110>.

26 But ye [shall] not [be] so <3779>: but he that is greatest

<3187> among <1722> you, let him be as the younger <3501>; and

he that is chief <2233>, as he that doth serve <1247>.

27 For whether <5101> [is] greater <3187>, he that sitteth

<0345> at <0345> meat, or <2228> he that serveth <1247>? [is]

not he that sitteth <0345> at <0345> meat? but I am <1510> among

<3319> you as he that serveth <1247>.

28 Ye are they which have continued <1265> with me in my

temptations <3986>.

29 And I appoint <1303> unto you a kingdom <0932>, as my

Father <3962> hath appointed <1303> unto me;

30 That ye may eat <2068> and drink <4095> at <1909> my table

<5132> in my kingdom <0932>, and sit <2523> on <1909> thrones

<2362> judging <2919> the twelve <1427> tribes <5443> of Israel

<2474>.

31 And the Lord <2962> said <2036>, Simon <4613>, Simon <4613>,

behold <2400>, Satan <4567> hath desired <1809> [to have] you,

that he may sift <4617> [you] as wheat <4621>:

32 But I have prayed <1189> for thee, that thy faith <4102>

fail <1587> not: and when <4218> thou art converted <1994>,

strengthen <4741> thy brethren <0080>.

33 And he said <2036> unto him, Lord <2962>, I am <1510> ready

<2092> to go <4198> with thee, both <2532> into <1519> prison

<5438>, and to death <2288>.

34 And he said <3004>, I tell <3004> thee, Peter <4074>, the

cock <0220> shall not crow <5455> this <4594> day <4594>, before

<2228> that thou shalt thrice <5151> deny <0533> that thou

knowest <1492> me.

35 And he said <2036> unto them, When <3753> I sent <0649> you

without <0817> purse <0905>, and scrip <4082>, and shoes <5266>,

lacked <5302> ye any <5100> thing? And they said <2036>, Nothing

<3762>.

36 Then <3767> said <2036> he unto them, But now <3568>, he

that hath <2192> a purse <0905>, let him take <0142> [it], and

likewise <3668> [his] scrip <4082>: and he that hath <2192> no

<3361> sword <3162>, let him sell <4453> his garment <2440>, and

buy <0059> one.

37 For I say <3004> unto you, that this <5124> that is written

<1125> must <1163> yet <2089> be accomplished <5055> in me, And

he was reckoned <3049> among <3326> the transgressors <0459>:

for the things concerning <4012> me have <2192> an end <5056>.

38 And they said <2036>, Lord <2962>, behold <2400>, here

<5602> [are] two <1417> swords <3162>. And he said <2036> unto

them, It is enough <2425>.

39. And he came <1831> out, and went <4198>, as he was wont

<1485>, to the mount <3735> of Olives <1636>; and his disciples

<3101> also <2532> followed <0190> him.

40 And when he was at <1909> the place <5117>, he said <2036>

unto them, Pray <4336> that ye enter <1525> not into <1519>

temptation <3986>.

41 And he was withdrawn <0645> from them about <5616> a

stone's <3037> cast <1000>, and kneeled <1119> down, and prayed

<4336>,

42 Saying <3004>, Father <3962>, if <1487> thou be willing

<1014>, remove <3911> this <5124> cup <4221> from me:

nevertheless <4133> not my will <2307>, but thine <4674>, be

done <1096>.

43 And there appeared <3700> an angel <0032> unto him from

heaven <3772>, strengthening <1765> him.

44 And being <1096> in an agony <0074> he prayed <4336> more

<1617> earnestly <1617>: and his sweat <2402> was as it were

great drops <2361> of blood <0129> falling <2597> down <2597> to

the ground <1093>.

45 And when he rose <0450> up from prayer <4335>, and was come

<2064> to his disciples <3101>, he found <2147> them sleeping

<2837> for sorrow <3077>,

46 And said <2036> unto them, Why <5101> sleep <2518> ye? rise

<0450> and pray <4336>, lest <3361> ye enter <1525> into <1519>

temptation <3986>.

47. And while he yet <2089> spake <2980>, behold <2400> a

multitude <3793>, and he that was called <3004> Judas <2455>,

one <1520> of the twelve <1427>, went <4281> before <4281> them,

and drew near <1448> unto Jesus <2424> to kiss <5368> him.

48 But Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, Judas <2455>,

betrayest <3860> thou the Son <5207> of man <0444> with a kiss

<5370>?

49 When they which were about <4012> him saw <1492> what

<3588> would follow <2071>, they said <2036> unto him, Lord

<2962>, shall we smite <3960> with the sword <3162>?

50 And one <1520> of them smote <3960> the servant <1401> of

the high <0749> priest <0749>, and cut <0851> off <0851> his

right <1188> ear <3775>.

51 And Jesus <2424> answered <0611> and said <2036>, Suffer

<1439> ye thus <5127> far <2193>. And he touched <0680> his ear

<5621>, and healed <2390> him.

52 Then <1161> Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto the chief <0749>

priests <0749>, and captains <4755> of the temple <2411>, and

the elders <4245>, which were come <3854> to him, Be ye come

<1831> out, as against <1909> a thief <3027>, with swords <3162>

and staves <3586>?

53 When I was daily <2250> with you in the temple <2411>, ye

stretched <1614> forth <1614> no <3756> hands <5495> against

<1909> me: but this <3778> is your <5216> hour <5610>, and the

power <1849> of darkness <4655>.

54. Then <1161> took <4815> they him, and led <0071> [him], and

brought <1521> him into <1519> the high <0749> priest's <0749>

house <3624>. And Peter <4074> followed <0190> afar <3113> off.

55 And when they had kindled <0681> a fire <4442> in the midst

<3319> of the hall <0833>, and were set <4776> down <4776>

together <4776>, Peter <4074> sat <2521> down <2521> among

<3319> them.

56 But a certain <5100> maid <3814> beheld <1492> him as he

sat <2521> by the fire <5457>, and earnestly <0816> looked

<0816> upon him, and said <2036>, This <3778> man was also

<2532> with him.

57 And he denied <0720> him, saying <3004>, Woman <1135>, I

know <1492> him not.

58 And after <3326> a little <1024> while another <2087> saw

<1492> him, and said <5346>, Thou art <1488> also <2532> of them.

And Peter <4074> said <2036>, Man <0444>, I am <1510> not.

59 And about <5616> the space <1339> of one <3391> hour <5610>

after another <0243> confidently <1340> affirmed <1340>, saying

<3004>, Of a truth <0225> this <3778> [fellow] also <2532> was

with him: for he is a Galilaean <1057>.

60 And Peter <4074> said <2036>, Man <0444>, I know <1492> not

what <3739> thou sayest <3004>. And immediately <3916>, while he

yet <2089> spake <2980>, the cock <0220> crew <5455>.

61 And the Lord <2962> turned <4762>, and looked <1689> upon

Peter <4074>. And Peter <4074> remembered <5279> the word <3056>

of the Lord <2962>, how <5613> he had said <2036> unto him,

Before <4250> the cock <0220> crow <5455>, thou shalt deny

<0533> me thrice <5151>.

62 And Peter <4074> went <1831> out, and wept <2799> bitterly

<4090>.

63. And the men <0435> that held <4912> Jesus <2424> mocked

<1702> him, and smote <1194> [him].

64 And when they had blindfolded <4028> him, they struck

<5180> him on the face <4383>, and asked <1905> him, saying

<3004>, Prophesy <4395>, who <5101> is it that smote <3817> thee?

65 And many <4183> other <2087> things blasphemously <0987>

spake <3004> they against <1519> him.

66 And as soon as it was day <2250>, the elders <4244> of the

people <2992> and the chief <0749> priests <0749> and the

scribes <1122> came <4863> together <4863>, and led <0321> him

into <1519> their council <4892>, saying <3004>,

67 Art <1488> thou the Christ <5547>? tell <2036> us. And he

said <2036> unto them, If <1437> I tell <2036> you, ye will not

believe <4100>:

68 And if <1437> I also <2532> ask <2065> [you], ye will not

answer <0611> me, nor <2228> let <0630> [me] go <0630>.

69 Hereafter <3568> shall the Son <5207> of man <0444> sit

<2521> on <1537> the right <1188> hand of the power <1411> of

God <2316>.

70 Then <1161> said <5346> they all <3956>, Art <1488> thou

then <3767> the Son <5207> of God <2316>? And he said <2036>

unto them, Ye say <3004> that I am <1510>.

71 And they said <2036>, What <5101> need <5532> we any <2089>

further <2089> witness <3141>? for we ourselves have heard

<0191> of his own <1438> mouth <4750>.

Luke 23

1. And the whole <0537> multitude <4128> of them arose <0450>,

and led <0071> him unto Pilate <4091>.

2 And they began <0756> to accuse <2723> him, saying <3004>,

We found <2147> this <5126> [fellow] perverting <1294> the

nation <1484>, and forbidding <2967> to give <1325> tribute

<5411> to Caesar <2541>, saying <3004> that he himself <1438> is

Christ <5547> a King <0935>.

3 And Pilate <4091> asked <1905> him, saying <3004>, Art

<1488> thou the King <0935> of the Jews <2453>? And he answered

<0611> him and said <5346>, Thou sayest <3004> [it].

4 Then <1161> said <2036> Pilate <4091> to the chief <0749>

priests <0749> and [to] the people <3793>, I find <2147> no

<3762> fault <0158> in this <5129> man <0444>.

5 And they were the more <2001> fierce <2001>, saying <3004>,

He stirreth <0383> up the people <2992>, teaching <1321>

throughout <2596> all <3650> Jewry <2449>, beginning <0756> from

Galilee <1056> to this <5602> place <5602>.

6 When Pilate <4091> heard <0191> of Galilee <1056>, he asked

<1905> whether <1487> the man <0444> were a Galilaean <1057>.

7 And as soon as he knew <1921> that he belonged <1510> unto

Herod's <2264> jurisdiction <1849>, he sent <0375> him to Herod

<2264>, who himself <0846> also <2532> was at <1722> Jerusalem

<2414> at <1722> that time <2250>.

8 And when Herod <2264> saw <1492> Jesus <2424>, he was

exceeding <3029> glad <5463>: for he was desirous <2309> to see

<1492> him of a long <2425> [season], because <1223> he had

heard <0191> many <4183> things of him; and he hoped <1679> to

have seen <1492> some <5100> miracle <4592> done <1096> by him.

9 Then <1161> he questioned <1905> with him in many <2425>

words <3056>; but he answered <0611> him nothing <3762>.

10 And the chief <0749> priests <0749> and scribes <1122>

stood <2476> and vehemently <2159> accused <2723> him.

11 And Herod <2264> with his men <4753> of war <4753> set

<1848> him at <1848> nought <1848>, and mocked <1702> [him], and

arrayed <4016> him in a gorgeous <2986> robe <2066>, and sent

<0375> him again <0375> to Pilate <4091>.

12 And the same <0846> day <2250> Pilate <4091> and Herod

<2264> were made <1096> friends <5384> together <0240>: for

before <4391> they were at <1722> enmity <2189> between <4314>

themselves <1438>.

13. And Pilate <4091>, when he had called <4779> together

<4779> the chief <0749> priests <0749> and the rulers <0758> and

the people <2992>,

14 Said <2036> unto them, Ye have brought <4374> this <5129>

man <0444> unto me, as one that perverteth <0654> the people

<2992>: and, behold <2400>, I, having examined <0350> [him]

before <1799> you, have found <2147> no <3762> fault <0158> in

this <5126> man <0444> touching those things whereof ye accuse

<2723> him:

15 No <0235>, nor <3761> yet Herod <2264>: for I sent <0375>

you to him; and, lo <2400>, nothing <3762> worthy <0514> of

death <2288> is done <4238> unto him.

16 I will therefore <3767> chastise <3811> him, and release

<0630> [him].

17 (For of necessity <0318> he must release <0630> one <1520>

unto them at <2596> the feast <1859>.)

18 And they cried <0349> out all <3829> at <3826> once <3826>,

saying <3004>, Away with this <5126> [man], and release <0630>

unto us Barabbas <0912>:

19 (Who for a certain <5100> sedition <4714> made <1096> in

the city <4172>, and for murder <5408>, was cast <0906> into

<1519> prison <5438>.)

20 Pilate <4091> therefore <3767>, willing <2309> to release

<0630> Jesus <2424>, spake <4377> again <3825> to them.

21 But they cried <2019>, saying <3004>, Crucify <4717> [him],

crucify <4717> him.

22 And he said <2036> unto them the third <5154> time, Why

<1063>, what <5101> evil <2556> hath he done <4160>? I have

found <2147> no <3762> cause <0158> of death <2288> in him: I

will therefore <3767> chastise <3811> him, and let [him] go

<0630>.

23 And they were instant <1945> with loud <3173> voices <5456>,

requiring <0154> that he might be crucified <4717>. And the

voices <5456> of them and of the chief <0749> priests <0749>

prevailed <2729>.

24 And Pilate <4091> gave sentence <1948> that it should be as

they required <0155>.

25 And he released <0630> unto them him that for sedition

<4714> and murder <5408> was cast <0906> into <1519> prison

<5438>, whom <3739> they had desired <0154>; but he delivered

<3860> Jesus <2424> to their will <2307>.

26. And as they led <0520> him away <0520>, they laid hold

<1949> upon one <5100> Simon <4613>, a Cyrenian <2956>, coming

<2064> out of the country <0068>, and on <2007> him they laid

<2007> the cross <4716>, that he might bear <5342> [it] after

<3693> Jesus <2424>.

27 And there followed <0190> him a great <4183> company <4128>

of people <2992>, and of women <1135>, which <3739> also <2532>

bewailed <2875> and lamented <2354> him.

28 But Jesus <2424> turning <4762> unto them said <2036>,

Daughters <2364> of Jerusalem <2419>, weep <2799> not for me,

but weep <2799> for yourselves <1438>, and for your <5216>

children <5043>.

29 For, behold <2400>, the days <2250> are coming <2064>, in

the which <3739> they shall say <2046>, Blessed <3107> [are] the

barren <4723>, and the wombs <2836> that never <3756> bare

<1080>, and the paps <3149> which <3739> never <3756> gave suck

<2337>.

30 Then <5119> shall they begin <0756> to say <3004> to the

mountains <3735>, Fall <4098> on <1909> us; and to the hills

<1015>, Cover <2572> us.

31 For if <1487> they do <4160> these <5023> things in a green

<5200> tree <3586>, what <5101> shall be done <1096> in the dry

<3584>?

32. And there were also <2532> two <1417> other <2087>,

malefactors <2557>, led <0071> with him to be put <0337> to

death <0337>.

33 And when <3753> they were come <0565> to the place <5117>,

which <3588> is called <2564> Calvary <2898>, there <1563> they

crucified <4717> him, and the malefactors <2557>, one <3303> on

<1537> the right <1188> hand, and the other <3739> on <1537> the

left <0710>.

34 Then <1161> said <3004> Jesus <2424>, Father <3962>,

forgive <0863> them; for they know <1492> not what <5101> they

do <4160>. And they parted <1266> his raiment <2440>, and cast

<0906> lots <2819>.

35 And the people <2992> stood <2476> beholding <2334>. And

the rulers <0758> also <2532> with them derided <1592> [him],

saying <3004>, He saved <4982> others <0243>; let him save

<4982> himself <1438>, if <1487> he be Christ <5547>, the chosen

<1588> of God <2316>.

36 And the soldiers <4757> also <2532> mocked <1702> him,

coming <4334> to him, and offering <4374> him vinegar <3690>,

37 And saying <3004>, If <1487> thou be the king <0935> of the

Jews <2453>, save <4982> thyself <4572>.

38 And a superscription <1923> also <2532> was written <1125>

over <1909> him in letters <1121> of Greek <1673>, and Latin

<4513>, and Hebrew <1444>, THIS <3778> IS THE KING <0935> OF THE

JEWS <2453>.

39 And one <1520> of the malefactors <2557> which were hanged

<2910> railed <0987> on him, saying <3004>, If <1487> thou be

Christ <5547>, save <4982> thyself <4572> and us.

40 But the other <2087> answering <0611> rebuked <2008> him,

saying <3004>, Dost not thou fear <5399> God <2316>, seeing

<3754> thou art <1488> in the same <0846> condemnation <2917>?

41 And we indeed <3303> justly <1346>; for we receive <0618>

the due <0514> reward <0514> of our deeds <4238>: but this

<3778> man hath done <4238> nothing <3762> amiss <0824>.

42 And he said <3004> unto Jesus <2424>, Lord <2962>, remember

<3415> me when <3752> thou comest <2064> into <1722> thy kingdom

<0932>.

43 And Jesus <2424> said <2036> unto him, Verily <0281> I say

<3004> unto thee, To day <4594> shalt thou be with me in

paradise <3857>.

44. And it was about <5616> the sixth <1623> hour <5610>, and

there was a darkness <4655> over <1909> all <3650> the earth

<1093> until <2193> the ninth <1766> hour <5610>.

45 And the sun <2246> was darkened <4654>, and the veil <2665>

of the temple <3485> was rent <4977> in the midst <3319>.

46 And when Jesus <2424> had cried <5455> with a loud <3173>

voice <5456>, he said <2036>, Father <3962>, into <1519> thy

hands <5495> I commend <3908> my spirit <4151>: and having said

<2036> thus <5023>, he gave up the ghost <1606>.

47 Now <1161> when the centurion <1543> saw <1492> what <3588>

was done <1096>, he glorified <1392> God <2316>, saying <3004>,

Certainly <3689> this <3778> was a righteous <1342> man <0444>.

48 And all <3956> the people <3793> that came <4836> together

<4836> to that sight <2335>, beholding <2334> the things which

were done <1096>, smote <5180> their breasts <4738>, and

returned <5290>.

49 And all <3956> his acquaintance <1110>, and the women

<1135> that followed <4870> him from Galilee <1056>, stood

<2476> afar <3113> off, beholding <3708> these <5023> things.

50. And, behold <2400>, [there was] a man <0435> named <3686>

Joseph <2501>, a counsellor <1010>; [and he was] a good <0018>

man <0435>, and a just <1342>:

51 (The same <3778> had not consented <4784> to the counsel

<1012> and deed <4234> of them;) [he was] of Arimathaea <0707>,

a city <4172> of the Jews <2453>: who <3739> also <2532> himself

<0846> waited <4327> for the kingdom <0932> of God <2316>.

52 This <3778> [man] went <4344> unto Pilate <4091>, and

begged <0154> the body <4983> of Jesus <2424>.

53 And he took <2507> it down <2507>, and wrapped <1794> it in

linen <4616>, and laid <5087> it in a sepulchre <3418> that was

hewn <2991> in stone <2991>, wherein <3757> never <3764> man

<3762> before <3764> was laid <2749>.

54 And that day <2250> was the preparation <3904>, and the

sabbath <4521> drew <2020> on <2020>.

55 And the women <1135> also <2532>, which <3748> came <4905>

with him from Galilee <1056>, followed <2628> after <2628>, and

beheld <2300> the sepulchre <3419>, and how <5613> his body

<4983> was laid <5087>.

56 And they returned <5290>, and prepared <2090> spices <0759>

and ointments <3464>; and rested <2270> the sabbath <4521> day

according <2596> to the commandment <1785>.

Luke 24

1. Now <2532> upon the first <3391> [day] of the week <4521>,

very early <3722> in the morning, they came <2064> unto the

sepulchre <3418>, bringing <5342> the spices <0759> which <3739>

they had prepared <2090>, and certain [others] with them.

2 And they found <2147> the stone <3037> rolled <0617> away

<0617> from the sepulchre <3419>.

3 And they entered <1525> in, and found <2147> not the body

<4983> of the Lord <2962> Jesus <2424>.

4 And it came <1096> to pass, as they were much <1280>

perplexed <1280> thereabout <5127>, behold <2400>, two <1417>

men <0435> stood <2186> by them in shining <0797> garments

<2067>:

5 And as they were afraid <1719>, and bowed <2827> down

[their] faces <4383> to the earth <1093>, they said <2036> unto

them, Why <5101> seek <2212> ye the living <2198> among <3326>

the dead <3498>?

6 He is not here <5602>, but is risen <1453>: remember <3415>

how <5613> he spake <2980> unto you when he was yet <2089> in

Galilee <1056>,

7 Saying <3004>, The Son <5207> of man <0444> must <1163> be

delivered <3860> into <1519> the hands <5495> of sinful <0268>

men <0444>, and be crucified <4717>, and the third <5154> day

<2250> rise <0450> again <0450>.

8 And they remembered <3415> his words <4487>,

9 And returned <5290> from the sepulchre <3419>, and told

<0518> all <3956> these <5023> things unto the eleven <1733>,

and to all <3956> the rest <3062>.

10 It was Mary <3137> Magdalene <3094>, and Joanna <2489>, and

Mary <3137> [the mother] of James <2385>, and other <3062>

[women that were] with them, which <3739> told <3004> these

<5023> things unto the apostles <0652>.

11 And their words <4487> seemed <5316> to them as idle <3026>

tales <3026>, and they believed <0569> them not.

12 Then <1161> arose <0450> Peter <4074>, and ran <5143> unto

the sepulchre <3419>; and stooping <3879> down <3879>, he beheld

<0991> the linen <3608> clothes <3608> laid <2749> by themselves

<3441>, and departed <0565>, wondering <2296> in himself <1438>

at that which was come <1096> to pass.

13. And, behold <2400>, two <1417> of them went <4198> that

same <0846> day <2250> to a village <2968> called <3686> Emmaus

<1695>, which was from Jerusalem <2419> [about] threescore

<1835> furlongs <4712>.

14 And they talked <3656> together <0240> of all <3956> these

<5130> things which had happened <4819>.

15 And it came <1096> to pass, that, while <3588> they

communed <3656> [together] and reasoned <4802>, Jesus <2424>

himself <0846> drew near <1448>, and went <4848> with them.

16 But their eyes <3788> were holden <2902> that they should

not know <1921> him.

17 And he said <2036> unto them, What <5101> manner of

communications <3056> [are] these <3778> that ye have <0474> one

<0240> to another <0240>, as ye walk <4043>, and are sad <4659>?

18 And the one <1520> of them, whose <3739> name <3686> was

Cleopas <2810>, answering <0611> said <2036> unto him, Art thou

only <3441> a stranger <3939> in Jerusalem <2419>, and hast not

known <1097> the things which are come <1096> to pass there

<0846> in these <5025> days <2250>?

19 And he said <2036> unto them, What <4169> things? And they

said <2036> unto him, Concerning <4012> Jesus <2424> of Nazareth

<3478>, which <3739> was a prophet <4396> mighty <1415> in deed

<2041> and word <3056> before <1726> God <2316> and all <3956>

the people <2992>:

20 And how <3704> the chief <0749> priests <0749> and our

rulers <0758> delivered <3860> him to be condemned <2917> to

death <2288>, and have crucified <4717> him.

21 But we trusted <1679> that it had been <2076> he which

should <3195> have redeemed <3084> Israel <2474>: and beside

<4862> all <3956> this <5125>, to day <4594> is the third <5154>

day <2250> since <0575> these <5023> things were done <1096>.

22 Yea <0235>, and certain <5100> women <1135> also <2532> of

our company made <1839> us astonished <1839>, which were early

<3721> at <1909> the sepulchre <3419>;

23 And when they found <2147> not his body <4983>, they came

<2064>, saying <3004>, that they had also <2532> seen <3708> a

vision <3701> of angels <0032>, which <3739> said <3004> that he

was alive <2198>.

24 And certain <5100> of them which were with us went <0565>

to the sepulchre <3419>, and found <2147> [it] even <3779> so

<3779> as the women <1135> had said <2036>: but him they saw

<1492> not.

25 Then <1161> he said <2036> unto them, O fools <0453>, and

slow <1021> of heart <2588> to believe <1909> all <3956> that

the prophets <4396> have spoken <2980>:

26 Ought <1163> not Christ <5547> to have suffered <3958>

these <5023> things, and to enter <1525> into <1519> his glory

<1391>?

27 And beginning <0756> at <0575> Moses <3475> and all <3956>

the prophets <4396>, he expounded <1329> unto them in all <3956>

the scriptures <1124> the things concerning <4012> himself

<1438>.

28 And they drew nigh <1448> unto the village <2968>, whither

<3757> they went <4198>: and he made <4364> as though he would

have gone <4198> further <4208>.

29 But they constrained <3849> him, saying <3004>, Abide

<3306> with us: for it is toward <4314> evening <2073>, and the

day <2250> is far spent <2827>. And he went <1525> in to tarry

<3306> with them.

30 And it came <1096> to pass, as he sat <2625> at <2625> meat

with them, he took <2983> bread <0740>, and blessed <2127> [it],

and brake <2806>, and gave <1929> to them.

31 And their eyes <3788> were opened <1272>, and they knew

<1921> him; and he vanished <0855> out of their sight.

32 And they said <2036> one <0240> to another <0240>, Did not

our heart <2588> burn <2545> within <1722> us, while <5613> he

talked <2980> with us by the way <3598>, and while <5613> he

opened <1272> to us the scriptures <1124>?

33 And they rose <0450> up the same <0846> hour <5610>, and

returned <5290> to Jerusalem <2419>, and found <2147> the eleven

<1733> gathered <4867> together <4867>, and them that were with

them,

34 Saying <3004>, The Lord <2962> is risen <1453> indeed

<3689>, and hath appeared <3700> to Simon <4613>.

35 And they told <1834> what <3588> things [were done] in the

way <3598>, and how <5613> he was known <1097> of them in

breaking <2800> of bread <0740>.

36. And as they thus <5023> spake <2980>, Jesus <2424> himself

<0846> stood <2476> in the midst <3319> of them, and saith

<3004> unto them, Peace <1515> [be] unto you.

37 But they were terrified <4422> and affrighted <1719>, and

supposed <1380> that they had seen <2334> a spirit <4151>.

38 And he said <2036> unto them, Why <5101> are ye troubled

<5015>? and why <1302> do thoughts <1261> arise <0305> in your

<5216> hearts <2588>?

39 Behold <1492> my hands <5495> and my feet <4228>, that it

is I myself: handle <5584> me, and see <1492>; for a spirit

<4151> hath <2192> not flesh <4561> and bones <3747>, as ye see

<2334> me have <2192>.

40 And when he had thus <5124> spoken <2036>, he shewed <1925>

them [his] hands <5495> and [his] feet <4228>.

41 And while they yet <2089> believed <0569> not for joy

<5479>, and wondered <2296>, he said <2036> unto them, Have

<2192> ye here <1759> any <5100> meat <1034>?

42 And they gave <1929> him a piece <3313> of a broiled <3702>

fish <2486>, and of an honeycomb <3193>.

43 And he took <2983> [it], and did eat <5315> before <1799>

them.

44 And he said <2036> unto them, These <3778> [are] the words

<3056> which <3739> I spake <2980> unto you, while I was yet

<2089> with you, that all <3956> things must <1163> be fulfilled

<4137>, which <3588> were written <1125> in the law <3551> of

Moses <3475>, and [in] the prophets <4396>, and [in] the psalms

<5568>, concerning <4012> me.

45 Then <5119> opened <1272> he their understanding <3563>,

that they might understand <4920> the scriptures <1124>,

46 And said <2036> unto them, Thus <3779> it is written <1125>,

and thus <3779> it behoved <1163> Christ <5547> to suffer

<3958>, and to rise <0450> from the dead <3498> the third <5154>

day <2250>:

47 And that repentance <3341> and remission <0859> of sins

<0266> should be preached <2784> in his name <3686> among <1519>

all <3956> nations <1484>, beginning <0756> at <0575> Jerusalem

<2419>.

48 And ye are witnesses <3144> of these <5130> things.

49 And, behold <2400>, I send <0649> the promise <1860> of my

Father <3962> upon you: but tarry <2523> ye in the city <4172>

of Jerusalem <2419>, until <2193> ye be endued <1746> with power

<1411> from on high <5311>.

50. And he led <1806> them out as far <2193> as to Bethany

<0963>, and he lifted <1869> up his hands <5495>, and blessed

<2127> them.

51 And it came <1096> to pass, while <3588> he blessed <2127>

them, he was parted <1339> from them, and carried <0399> up into

<1519> heaven <3772>.

52 And they worshipped <4352> him, and returned <5290> to

Jerusalem <2419> with great <3173> joy <5479>:

53 And were continually <1725> in the temple <2411>, praising

<0134> and blessing <2127> God <2316>. Amen <0281>.
