{\MT THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. LUKE



\par }\ChapOne{1}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Forasmuch as
many have taken in
hand to set forth in
order a
declaration
of those
things which are most surely
believed
among
us,

\VS{2}Even
as they
delivered them unto
us,
which
from the
beginning
were
eyewitnesses,
and
ministers of the
word;

\VS{3}It seemed
good to me
also, having
had
perfect
understanding of all
things from the very
first, to
write unto
thee in
order, most
excellent
Theophilus,

\VS{4}That thou mightest
know the
certainty
of those
things,
wherein thou hast been
instructed.


\par }{\PP \VS{5}¶ There
was
in the
days of
Herod, the
king of
Judæa, a
certain
priest
named
Zacharias,
of the
course of
Abia:
and
his
wife
{\ADD{was}}
of the
daughters of
Aaron,
and
her
name
{\ADD{was}}
Elisabeth.

\VS{6}And they
were
both
righteous
before
God,
walking
in
all the
commandments
and
ordinances of the
Lord
blameless.

\VS{7}And
they
had
no
child, because
that
Elisabeth
was
barren,
and
they
both
were
{\ADD{now}} well
stricken
in
years.

\VS{8}And it came to
pass, that
while
he executed the
priest’s office
before
God
in the
order of
his
course,

\VS{9}According
to the
custom of the
priest’s office, his lot
was to burn
incense when he
went
into the
temple of the
Lord.

\VS{10}And the
whole
multitude of the
people
were
praying
without at the
time of
incense.

\VS{11}And there
appeared unto
him an
angel of the
Lord
standing
on the right
side of the
altar of
incense.

\VS{12}And
when
Zacharias
saw
{\ADD{him}}, he was
troubled,
and
fear
fell
upon
him.

\VS{13}But the
angel
said
unto
him,
Fear
not,
Zacharias:
for
thy
prayer is
heard;
and
thy
wife
Elisabeth shall
bear
thee a
son,
and thou shalt
call
his
name
John.

\VS{14}And
thou shalt
have
joy
and
gladness;
and
many shall
rejoice
at
his
birth.

\VS{15}For he shall
be
great in the sight
of the
Lord,
and shall
drink
neither
wine
nor strong
drink;
and he shall be
filled
with the
Holy
Ghost,
even
from
his
mother’s
womb.

\VS{16}And
many of the
children of
Israel shall he
turn
to the
Lord
their
God.

\VS{17}And
he shall
go
before
him
in the
spirit
and
power of
Elias, to
turn the
hearts of the
fathers
to the
children,
and the
disobedient
to the
wisdom of the
just; to make
ready a
people
prepared for the
Lord.

\VS{18}And
Zacharias
said
unto the
angel,
Whereby shall I
know
this?
for
I
am an old
man,
and
my
wife well
stricken
in
years.

\VS{19}And the
angel
answering
said unto
him,
I
am
Gabriel,
that
stand in the
presence of
God;
and am
sent to
speak
unto
thee,
and to
shew
thee
these glad
tidings.

\VS{20}And,
behold, thou shalt
be
dumb,
and
not
able to
speak,
until the
day
that these
things shall be
performed,
because thou
believest
not
my
words,
which shall be
fulfilled
in
their
season.

\VS{21}And the
people
waited for
Zacharias,
and
marvelled
that
he tarried so
long
in the
temple.

\VS{22}And when he came
out, he
could
not
speak unto
them:
and they
perceived
that he had
seen a
vision
in the
temple:
for
he
beckoned unto
them,
and
remained
speechless.

\VS{23}And it came to
pass, that, as soon
as the
days
of
his
ministration were
accomplished, he
departed
to his
own
house.

\VS{24}And
after
those
days
his
wife
Elisabeth
conceived,
and
hid
herself
five
months,
saying,

\VS{25}Thus
hath the
Lord
dealt with
me
in the
days
wherein he looked
on
{\ADD{me}}, to take
away
my
reproach
among
men.

\VS{26}And
in the
sixth
month the
angel
Gabriel was
sent
from
God
unto a
city of
Galilee,
named
Nazareth,

\VS{27}To a
virgin
espoused to a
man
whose name
was
Joseph,
of the
house of
David;
and the
virgin’s
name
{\ADD{was}}
Mary.

\VS{28}And the
angel came
in
unto
her, and
said,
Hail,
{\ADD{thou that art}} highly
favoured, the
Lord
{\ADD{is}}
with
thee:
blessed
{\ADD{art}}
thou
among
women.

\VS{29}And when she
saw
{\ADD{him}}, she was
troubled
at
his
saying,
and cast in her
mind what manner
of
salutation
this should
be.

\VS{30}And the
angel
said unto
her,
Fear
not,
Mary:
for thou hast
found
favour
with
God.

\VS{31}And,
behold, thou shalt
conceive
in thy
womb,
and bring
forth a
son,
and shalt
call
his
name
JESUS.

\VS{32}He shall
be
great,
and shall be
called the
Son of the
Highest:
and the
Lord
God shall
give unto
him the
throne
of
his
father
David:

\VS{33}And he shall
reign
over the
house of
Jacob
for
ever;
and
of
his
kingdom there shall
be
no
end.

\VS{34}Then
said
Mary
unto the
angel,
How
shall
this
be,
seeing I
know
not a
man?

\VS{35}And the
angel
answered and
said unto
her, The
Holy
Ghost shall
come
upon
thee,
and the
power of the
Highest shall
overshadow
thee:
therefore
also that holy
thing which shall be born of
thee shall be
called the
Son of
God.

\VS{36}And,
behold,
thy
cousin
Elisabeth,
she
hath
also
conceived a
son
in
her old
age:
and
this
is the
sixth
month with
her, who was
called
barren.

\VS{37}For
with
God
nothing shall be
impossible.

\VS{38}And
Mary
said,
Behold the
handmaid of the
Lord; be
it unto
me according
to
thy
word.
And the
angel
departed
from
her.

\VS{39}And
Mary
arose
in
those
days, and
went
into the hill
country
with
haste,
into a
city of
Juda;

\VS{40}And
entered
into the
house of
Zacharias,
and
saluted
Elisabeth.

\VS{41}And it came to
pass, that,
when
Elisabeth
heard the
salutation of
Mary, the
babe
leaped
in
her
womb;
and
Elisabeth was
filled with
the
Holy
Ghost:

\VS{42}And she spake
out with
a
loud
voice,
and
said,
Blessed
{\ADD{art}}
thou
among
women,
and
blessed
{\ADD{is}} the
fruit
of
thy
womb.

\VS{43}And
whence
{\ADD{is}}
this to
me,
that the
mother
of
my
Lord should
come
to
me?

\VS{44}For,
lo, as soon
as the
voice
of
thy
salutation
sounded
in
mine
ears, the
babe
leaped
in
my
womb
for
joy.

\VS{45}And
blessed
{\ADD{is}} she that
believed:
for there shall
be a
performance of those things which were
told
her
from the
Lord.

\VS{46}And
Mary
said,
My
soul doth
magnify the
Lord,

\VS{47}And
my
spirit hath
rejoiced
in
God
my
Saviour.

\VS{48}For he hath
regarded the low
estate
of
his
handmaiden:
for,
behold,
from
henceforth
all
generations shall
call
me
blessed.

\VS{49}For he that is
mighty hath
done to
me great
things;
and
holy
{\ADD{is}}
his
name.

\VS{50}And
his
mercy
{\ADD{is}} on them that
fear
him
from
generation to
generation.

\VS{51}He hath
shewed
strength
with
his
arm; he hath
scattered the
proud in the
imagination
of
their
hearts.

\VS{52}He hath put
down the
mighty
from
{\ADD{their}}
seats,
and
exalted them of low
degree.

\VS{53}He hath
filled the
hungry with good
things;
and the
rich he hath
sent
empty
away.

\VS{54}He hath
holpen
his
servant
Israel, in
remembrance
of
{\ADD{his}}
mercy;

\VS{55}As he
spake
to
our
fathers, to
Abraham,
and
to
his
seed
for
ever.

\VS{56}And
Mary
abode
with
her
about
three
months,
and
returned
to her
own
house.

\VS{57}Now
Elisabeth’s
full
time
came that
she should be
delivered;
and she brought
forth a
son.

\VS{58}And
her
neighbours
and
her
cousins
heard
how the
Lord had shewed
great
mercy
upon
her;
and they
rejoiced with
her.

\VS{59}And it came to pass,
that
on the
eighth
day they
came to
circumcise the
child;
and they
called
him
Zacharias,
after the
name
of
his
father.

\VS{60}And
his
mother
answered and
said,
Not
{\ADD{so}};
but he shall be
called
John.

\VS{61}And they
said
unto
her, There
is
none
of
thy
kindred
that is
called
by
this
name.

\VS{62}And they made
signs
to
his
father,
how he would
have
him
called.

\VS{63}And he
asked for a writing
table, and
wrote,
saying,
His
name
is
John.
And they
marvelled
all.

\VS{64}And
his
mouth was
opened
immediately,
and
his
tongue
{\ADD{loosed}},
and he
spake, and
praised
God.

\VS{65}And
fear
came
on
all that dwelt round
about
them:
and
all
these
sayings were noised
abroad
throughout
all the hill
country of
Judæa.

\VS{66}And
all they that
heard
{\ADD{them}}
laid
{\ADD{them}}
up
in
their
hearts,
saying,
What
manner of
child
shall
this
be!
And the
hand of the
Lord
was
with
him.

\VS{67}And
his
father
Zacharias was
filled with
the
Holy
Ghost,
and
prophesied,
saying,

\VS{68}Blessed
{\ADD{be}} the
Lord
God of Israel;
for he hath
visited
and
redeemed
his
people,

\VS{69}And hath raised
up an
horn of
salvation for
us
in the
house
of
his
servant
David;

\VS{70}As he
spake
by the
mouth
of
his
holy
prophets,
which have been
since the world
began:

\VS{71}That we should be
saved
from
our
enemies,
and
from the
hand of
all that
hate
us;

\VS{72}To
perform the
mercy
{\ADD{promised}}
to
our
fathers,
and to
remember
his
holy
covenant;

\VS{73}The
oath
which he
sware
to
our
father
Abraham,

\VS{74}That he would
grant unto
us, that we being
delivered out
of the
hand
of
our enemies might
serve
him without
fear,

\VS{75}In
holiness
and
righteousness
before
him,
all the
days
of
our
life.

\VS{76}And
thou,
child, shalt be
called the
prophet of the
Highest:
for thou shalt
go
before the
face of the
Lord to
prepare
his
ways;

\VS{77}To
give
knowledge of
salvation
unto
his
people
by the
remission
of
their
sins,

\VS{78}Through
the
tender
mercy
of
our
God;
whereby the
dayspring
from on
high hath
visited
us,

\VS{79}To give
light to
them that
sit
in
darkness
and
{\ADD{in}} the
shadow of
death, to
guide
our
feet
into the
way of
peace.

\VS{80}And the
child
grew,
and waxed
strong in
spirit,
and
was
in the
deserts
till the
day
of
his
shewing
unto
Israel.




\par }\Chap{2}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And it came to
pass
in those
days,
that there went
out a
decree
from
Cæsar
Augustus, that
all the
world should be
taxed.

\VS{2}({\ADD{And}}
this
taxing
was
first made
when
Cyrenius was
governor of
Syria.)

\VS{3}And
all
went to be
taxed, every
one
into his
own
city.

\VS{4}And
Joseph
also went
up
from
Galilee, out
of the
city of
Nazareth,
into
Judæa,
unto the
city of
David,
which is
called
Bethlehem; (because
he
was
of the
house
and
lineage of
David:)

\VS{5}To be
taxed
with
Mary
his
espoused
wife,
being great with
child.

\VS{6}And so it
was, that,
while
they
were
there, the
days were
accomplished that
she should be
delivered.

\VS{7}And she brought
forth
her
firstborn
son,
and
wrapped
him in swaddling
clothes,
and
laid
him
in a
manger;
because there
was
no
room for
them
in the
inn.

\VS{8}And there
were
in the
same
country
shepherds abiding in the
field,
keeping
watch
over
their
flock by
night.

\VS{9}And,
lo, the
angel of the
Lord came
upon
them,
and the
glory of the
Lord shone round
about
them:
and they
were
sore
afraid.

\VS{10}And the
angel
said unto
them,
Fear
not:
for,
behold, I
bring
you good
tidings
of
great
joy,
which shall
be
to
all
people.

\VS{11}For unto
you is
born this
day
in the
city of
David a
Saviour,
which
is
Christ the
Lord.

\VS{12}And
this
{\ADD{shall be}} a
sign unto
you; Ye shall
find the
babe wrapped in swaddling
clothes,
lying
in a
manger.

\VS{13}And
suddenly there
was
with the
angel a
multitude of the
heavenly
host
praising
God,
and
saying,

\VS{14}Glory to
God
in the
highest,
and
on
earth
peace, good
will
toward
men.

\VS{15}And it came to
pass,
as the
angels were gone
away
from
them
into
heaven, the
shepherds
said
one
to
another, Let
us
now
go even
unto
Bethlehem,
and
see
this
thing which is come to
pass,
which the
Lord hath made
known unto
us.

\VS{16}And they
came with
haste,
and
found
Mary,
and
Joseph,
and the
babe
lying
in a
manger.

\VS{17}And when they had
seen
{\ADD{it}}, they made
known
abroad the
saying which was
told
them
concerning
this
child.

\VS{18}And
all they that
heard
{\ADD{it}}
wondered
at those things
which were
told
them
by the
shepherds.

\VS{19}But
Mary
kept
all
these
things, and
pondered
{\ADD{them}}
in
her
heart.

\VS{20}And the
shepherds
returned,
glorifying
and
praising
God
for
all the things
that they had
heard
and
seen,
as it was
told
unto
them.

\VS{21}And
when
eight
days were
accomplished for the
circumcising of the
child,
his
name was
called
JESUS, which was so
named
of the
angel
before
he was
conceived
in the
womb.

\VS{22}And
when the
days
of
her
purification according
to the
law of
Moses were
accomplished, they
brought
him
to
Jerusalem, to
present
{\ADD{him}} to the
Lord;

\VS{23}(As it is
written
in the
law of the
Lord,
Every
male that
openeth the
womb shall be
called
holy to the
Lord;)

\VS{24}And to
offer a
sacrifice according
to that which is
said
in the
law of the
Lord, A
pair of
turtledoves,
or
two
young
pigeons.

\VS{25}And,
behold, there
was a
man
in
Jerusalem,
whose
name
{\ADD{was}}
Simeon;
and the
same
man
{\ADD{was}}
just
and
devout,
waiting for the
consolation of
Israel:
and
the
Holy
Ghost
was
upon
him.

\VS{26}And it
was
revealed unto
him
by
the
Holy
Ghost, that he
should
not
see
death,
before he had
seen
the
Lord’s
Christ.

\VS{27}And he
came
by the
Spirit
into the
temple:
and
when the
parents brought
in the
child
Jesus, to
do
for
him
after the
custom of the
law,

\VS{28}Then
took
he
him
up
in
his
arms,
and
blessed
God,
and
said,

\VS{29}Lord,
now lettest
thou
thy
servant
depart
in
peace, according
to
thy
word:

\VS{30}For
mine
eyes have
seen
thy
salvation,

\VS{31}Which thou hast
prepared
before the
face of
all
people;

\VS{32}A
light
to
lighten the
Gentiles,
and the
glory
of
thy
people
Israel.

\VS{33}And
Joseph
and
his
mother
marvelled
at those things which were
spoken
of
him.

\VS{34}And
Simeon
blessed
them,
and
said
unto
Mary
his
mother,
Behold,
this
{\ADD{child}} is
set
for the
fall
and rising
again of
many
in
Israel;
and
for a
sign which shall be spoken
against;

\VS{35}(Yea, a
sword shall pierce
through
thy
own
soul
also,)
that the
thoughts
of
many
hearts may be
revealed.

\VS{36}And there
was one
Anna, a
prophetess, the
daughter of
Phanuel,
of the
tribe of
Aser:
she was
of a
great
age, and had
lived
with an
husband
seven
years
from
her
virginity;

\VS{37}And
she
{\ADD{was}} a
widow of
about fourscore and
four
years,
which
departed
not
from the
temple, but
served
{\ADD{God}} with
fastings
and
prayers
night
and
day.

\VS{38}And
she coming
in
that
instant gave thanks
likewise unto the
Lord,
and
spake
of
him to
all them that
looked for
redemption
in
Jerusalem.

\VS{39}And
when they had
performed all
things according
to the
law of the
Lord, they
returned
into
Galilee,
to their
own
city
Nazareth.

\VS{40}And the
child
grew,
and waxed
strong in
spirit,
filled with
wisdom:
and the
grace of
God
was
upon
him.

\VS{41}Now
his
parents
went
to
Jerusalem
every
year at the
feast of the
passover.

\VS{42}And
when he
was
twelve years
old,
they went
up
to
Jerusalem
after the
custom of the
feast.

\VS{43}And when they had
fulfilled the
days,
as
they
returned, the
child
Jesus tarried
behind
in
Jerusalem;
and
Joseph
and
his
mother
knew
not
{\ADD{of it}}.

\VS{44}But they,
supposing
him to have
been
in the
company,
went a
day’s
journey;
and they
sought
him
among
{\ADD{their}}
kinsfolk
and
acquaintance.

\VS{45}And when they
found
him
not, they turned back
again
to
Jerusalem,
seeking
him.

\VS{46}And it came to
pass, that
after
three
days they
found
him
in the
temple,
sitting
in the
midst of the
doctors,
both
hearing
them,
and
asking
them
questions.

\VS{47}And
all that
heard
him were
astonished
at
his
understanding
and
answers.

\VS{48}And when they
saw
him, they were
amazed:
and
his
mother
said
unto
him,
Son,
why hast
thou
thus
dealt with
us?
behold,
thy
father and
I have
sought
thee
sorrowing.

\VS{49}And he
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{How
is it that
ye sought
me?
wist ye
not
that
I
must
be
about
my
Father’s
business?}}

\VS{50}And
they
understood
not the
saying
which he
spake unto
them.

\VS{51}And he went
down
with
them,
and
came
to
Nazareth,
and
was subject
unto
them:
but
his
mother
kept
all
these
sayings
in
her
heart.

\VS{52}And
Jesus
increased in
wisdom
and
stature,
and in
favour
with
God
and
man.




\par }\Chap{3}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Now
in the
fifteenth
year of the
reign of
Tiberius
Cæsar,
Pontius
Pilate being
governor of
Judæa,
and
Herod being
tetrarch of
Galilee,
and
his
brother
Philip
tetrarch of
Ituraea
and of the
region of
Trachonitis,
and
Lysanias the
tetrarch of
Abilene,

and
Caiaphas
being the high
priests, the
word of
God
came
unto
John the
son of
Zacharias
in the
wilderness.

\VS{3}And he
came
into
all the country
about
Jordan,
preaching the
baptism of
repentance
for the
remission of
sins;

\VS{4}As it is
written
in the
book of the
words of
Esaias the
prophet,
saying, The
voice of one
crying
in the
wilderness, Prepare
ye the
way of the
Lord,

his
paths
straight.

low;
and the
crooked shall be
made
straight,
and the
rough
ways
{\ADD{shall be}}
made
smooth;

\VS{6}And
all
flesh shall
see the
salvation of
God.

\VS{7}Then said
he to the
multitude that came
forth to be
baptized
of
him, O
generation of
vipers,
who hath
warned
you to
flee
from the
wrath to
come?

\VS{8}Bring
forth
therefore
fruits
worthy of
repentance,
and
begin
not to
say
within
yourselves, We
have
Abraham
to
{\ADD{our}}
father:
for I
say unto
you,
That
God is
able
of
these
stones to raise
up
children unto
Abraham.

\VS{9}And
now
also the
axe is
laid
unto the
root of the
trees:
every
tree
therefore which
bringeth
not
forth
good
fruit is hewn
down,
and
cast
into the
fire.

\VS{10}And the
people
asked
him,
saying,
What shall we
do
then?

\VS{11}He
answereth
and
saith unto
them, He that
hath
two
coats, let him
impart to him that
hath
none;
and he that
hath
meat, let him
do
likewise.

\VS{12}Then
came
also
publicans to be
baptized,
and
said
unto
him,
Master,
what shall we
do?

\VS{13}And he
said
unto
them,
Exact
no
more
than that which is
appointed
you.

\VS{14}And the
soldiers
likewise
demanded of
him,
saying,
And
what
shall
we
do?
And he
said
unto
them, Do violence
to no
man,
neither
accuse
{\ADD{any}}
falsely;
and be
content
with
your
wages.

\VS{15}And as the
people were in
expectation,
and all
men
mused
in
their
hearts
of
John,
whether
he
were the
Christ, or
not;

\VS{16}John
answered,
saying
unto
{\ADD{them}}
all,
I
indeed
baptize
you with
water;
but one mightier
than
I
cometh, the
latchet of
whose
shoes I
am
not
worthy to
unloose:
he shall
baptize
you
with
the
Holy
Ghost
and with
fire:

\VS{17}Whose
fan
{\ADD{is}}
in
his
hand,
and he will throughly
purge
his
floor,
and will
gather the
wheat
into
his
garner;
but the
chaff he will
burn with
fire
unquenchable.

\VS{18}And
many other
things in his
exhortation preached
he unto the
people.

\VS{19}But
Herod the
tetrarch, being
reproved
by
him
for
Herodias
his
brother
Philip’s
wife,
and
for
all the
evils
which
Herod had
done,

\VS{20}Added
yet
this
above
all,
that he shut
up
John
in
prison.

\VS{21}Now
when
all the
people were
baptized, it came to
pass, that
Jesus
also being
baptized,
and
praying, the
heaven was
opened,

\VS{22}And
the
Holy
Ghost
descended in a
bodily
shape
like a
dove
upon
him,
and a
voice
came
from
heaven, which
said,
Thou
art
my
beloved
Son;
in
thee I am well
pleased.

\VS{23}And

\par }\Chap{4}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
Jesus being
full of the
Holy
Ghost
returned
from
Jordan,
and was
led
by the
Spirit
into the
wilderness,

\VS{2}Being
forty
days
tempted
of the
devil.
And
in
those
days he did
eat
nothing:
and when
they were
ended,
he
afterward
hungered.

\VS{3}And the
devil
said unto
him,
If thou
be the
Son of
God,
command
this
stone
that it be
made
bread.

\VS{4}And
Jesus
answered
him,
saying,
{\WJ{It is written,
That
man
shall
not
live
by
bread
alone,
but
by
every
word
of God.}}

\VS{5}And the
devil,
taking
him
up
into
an
high
mountain,
shewed unto
him
all the
kingdoms of the
world
in a
moment of
time.

\VS{6}And the
devil
said unto
him,
All
this
power will I
give
thee,
and the
glory of
them: for
that is
delivered unto
me;
and to
whomsoever I
will I
give
it.

\VS{7}If
thou
therefore wilt
worship
me,
all shall
be
thine.

\VS{8}And
Jesus
answered and
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Get thee
behind
me,
Satan:
for
it is written,
Thou shalt worship
the Lord
thy
God,
and
him
only
shalt thou serve.}}

\VS{9}And he
brought
him
to
Jerusalem,
and
set
him
on a
pinnacle of the
temple,
and
said unto
him,
If thou
be the
Son of
God,
cast
thyself
down from
hence:

\VS{10}For it is
written, He shall
give
his
angels
charge
over
thee, to
keep
thee:

\VS{11}And
in
{\ADD{their}}
hands they shall
bear
thee
up, lest at any
time thou
dash
thy
foot
against a
stone.

\VS{12}And
Jesus
answering
said unto
him,
{\WJ{It is said,
Thou shalt
not
tempt
the Lord
thy
God.}}

\VS{13}And
when the
devil had
ended
all the
temptation, he
departed
from
him
for a
season.


\par }{\PP \VS{14}¶
And
Jesus
returned
in the
power of the
Spirit
into
Galilee:
and there went
out a
fame
of
him
through
all the region round
about.

\VS{15}And
he
taught
in
their
synagogues, being
glorified
of
all.


\par }{\PP \VS{16}¶
And he
came
to
Nazareth,
where he had
been brought
up:
and,
as
his custom
was, he
went
into the
synagogue
on the
sabbath
day,
and stood
up for to
read.

\VS{17}And there was
delivered unto
him the
book of the
prophet
Esaias.
And when he had
opened the
book, he
found the
place
where it
was
written,

\VS{18}{\WJ{The Spirit
of the Lord
{\ADD{is}}
upon
me,
because
he hath anointed
me
to preach the gospel
to the poor;
he hath sent
me
to heal
the brokenhearted,
to preach
deliverance
to the captives,
and
recovering of sight
to the blind,
to set
at
liberty
them that are bruised,}}

\VS{19}{\WJ{To preach
the acceptable
year
of the Lord.}}

\VS{20}And he
closed the
book, and he
gave
{\ADD{it}}
again to the
minister, and sat
down.
And the
eyes of all
them that
were
in the
synagogue were
fastened on
him.

\VS{21}And he
began to
say
unto
them,
{\WJ{This day
is
this
scripture
fulfilled
in
your
ears.}}

\VS{22}And
all
bare
him
witness,
and
wondered
at
the
gracious
words
which
proceeded out
of
his
mouth.
And they
said,
Is
not
this
Joseph’s
son?

\VS{23}And he
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{Ye will
surely
say
unto me
this
proverb,
Physician,
heal
thyself:
whatsoever
we have heard
done
in
Capernaum,
do
also
here
in
thy
country.}}

\VS{24}And he
said,
{\WJ{Verily
I say
unto you,
No
prophet
is
accepted
in
his own
country.}}

\VS{25}{\WJ{But
I tell
you
of
a truth,
many
widows
were
in
Israel
in
the days
of Elias,
when
the heaven
was shut up
three
years
and
six
months,
when
great
famine
was
throughout
all
the land;}}

\VS{26}{\WJ{But
unto
none
of them
was
Elias
sent,
save
unto
Sarepta,
{\ADD{a city}}
of Sidon,
unto
a woman
{\ADD{that was}}
a widow.}}

\VS{27}{\WJ{And
many
lepers
were
in
Israel
in the time
of Eliseus
the prophet;
and
none
of them
was cleansed,
saving
Naaman
the Syrian.}}

\VS{28}And all
they
in the
synagogue, when they
heard these
things, were
filled with
wrath,

\VS{29}And rose
up, and
thrust
him out
of the
city,
and
led
him
unto the
brow of the
hill
whereon
their
city was
built,
that they might
cast
him down
headlong.

\VS{30}But
he
passing
through the
midst of
them went his
way,

\VS{31}And came
down
to
Capernaum, a
city of
Galilee,
and
taught
them
on the sabbath
days.

\VS{32}And they were
astonished
at
his
doctrine:
for
his
word
was
with
power.


\par }{\PP \VS{33}¶
And
in the
synagogue there
was a
man, which
had a
spirit of an
unclean
devil,
and cried
out with a
loud
voice,

\VS{34}Saying,
Let
{\ADD{us}}
alone;
what have we to
do with
thee,
{\ADD{thou}}
Jesus of
Nazareth? art thou
come to
destroy
us? I
know
thee
who thou
art; the Holy
One of
God.

\VS{35}And
Jesus
rebuked
him,
saying,
{\WJ{Hold thy peace,
and
come out
of
him.}} And
when the
devil had
thrown
him
in the
midst, he
came out
of
him, and
hurt
him
not.

\VS{36}And they
were
all
amazed,
and
spake
among
themselves,
saying,
What a
word
{\ADD{is}}
this!
for
with
authority
and
power he
commandeth the
unclean
spirits,
and they come
out.

\VS{37}And the
fame
of
him went
out
into
every
place of the country round
about.


\par }{\PP \VS{38}¶
And he
arose out
of the
synagogue, and
entered
into
Simon’s
house.
And
Simon’s
wife’s mother
was taken
with a
great
fever;
and they
besought
him
for
her.

\VS{39}And he
stood
over
her, and
rebuked the
fever;
and it
left
her:
and
immediately she
arose and
ministered unto
them.


\par }{\PP \VS{40}¶ Now
when the
sun was
setting,
all they
that
had any
sick with
divers
diseases
brought
them
unto
him;
and he
laid his
hands on
every
one of
them, and
healed
them.

\VS{41}And
devils
also came
out
of
many, crying
out,
and
saying,
Thou
art
Christ the
Son of
God.
And he
rebuking
{\ADD{them}}
suffered
them
not to
speak:
for they
knew that
he
was
Christ.

\VS{42}And when it
was
day, he
departed and
went
into a
desert
place:
and the
people
sought
him,
and
came
unto
him,
and
stayed
him, that he should
not
depart
from
them.

\VS{43}And he
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{I
must
preach
the kingdom
of God
to other
cities
also:
for
therefore
am I sent.}}

\VS{44}And he
preached
in the
synagogues of
Galilee.




\par }\Chap{5}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And it came to
pass, that,
as the
people pressed
upon
him to
hear the
word of
God,
he
stood
by the
lake of
Gennesaret,

\VS{2}And
saw
two
ships
standing
by the
lake:
but the
fishermen were gone
out
of
them, and were
washing
{\ADD{their}}
nets.

\VS{3}And he
entered
into
one of the
ships,
which
was
Simon’s, and
prayed
him that he would thrust
out a
little
from the
land.
And he sat
down, and
taught the
people out
of the
ship.

\VS{4}Now
when he had
left
speaking, he
said
unto
Simon,
{\WJ{Launch out
into
the deep,
and
let down
your
nets
for
a draught.}}

\VS{5}And
Simon
answering
said unto
him,
Master, we have
toiled
all the
night, and have
taken
nothing:
nevertheless
at
thy
word I will let
down the
net.

\VS{6}And when they
had
this
done, they
inclosed a
great
multitude of
fishes:
and
their
net
brake.

\VS{7}And they
beckoned
unto
{\ADD{their}}
partners,
which were
in the
other
ship, that they should
come and
help
them.
And they
came,
and
filled
both the
ships, so
that
they began to
sink.

\VS{8}When
Simon
Peter
saw
{\ADD{it}}, he fell down
at
Jesus’
knees,
saying,
Depart
from
me;
for I
am a
sinful
man, O
Lord.

\VS{9}For
he was
astonished,
and
all
that were
with
him,
at the
draught of the
fishes
which they had
taken:

\VS{10}And
so
{\ADD{was}}
also
James,
and
John, the
sons of
Zebedee,
which
were
partners
with
Simon.
And
Jesus
said
unto
Simon,
{\WJ{Fear
not;
from
henceforth
thou shalt
catch
men.}}

\VS{11}And when they had
brought
their
ships
to
land, they
forsook
all, and
followed
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}¶
And it came to
pass,
when
he
was
in a

man
full of
leprosy: who
seeing
Jesus
fell
on
{\ADD{his}}
face, and
besought
him,
saying,
Lord,
if thou
wilt, thou
canst
make
me
clean.

\VS{13}And he put
forth
{\ADD{his}}
hand, and
touched
him,
saying,
{\WJ{I will:

And
immediately the
leprosy
departed
from
him.

\VS{14}And
he
charged
him to
tell no
man:
{\WJ{but
go,
and shew
thyself
to the priest,
and
offer
for
thy
cleansing,
according as
Moses
commanded,
for
a testimony
unto them.}}

\VS{15}But so much the
more went
there a
fame
abroad
of
him:
and
great
multitudes came
together to
hear,
and to be
healed
by
him
of
their
infirmities.


\par }{\PP \VS{16}¶
And he
withdrew
himself
into the
wilderness,
and
prayed.

\VS{17}And it came to
pass
on a
certain
day,
as
he
was
teaching,
that there
were
Pharisees
and doctors of the
law sitting
by,
which
were
come
out of
every
town of
Galilee,
and
Judæa,
and
Jerusalem:
and the
power of the
Lord
was
{\ADD{present}}
to
heal
them.


\par }{\PP \VS{18}¶
And,
behold,
men
brought
in a
bed a
man
which
was taken with a
palsy:
and they
sought
{\ADD{means}} to
bring
him
in,
and to
lay
{\ADD{him}}
before
him.

\VS{19}And when they
could
not
find
by
what
{\ADD{way}} they might
bring
him
in because
of the
multitude, they
went
upon the
housetop, and
let
him
down
through the
tiling
with
{\ADD{his}}
couch
into the
midst
before
Jesus.

\VS{20}And when he
saw
their
faith, he
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Man,
thy
sins
are forgiven
thee.}}

\VS{21}And the
scribes
and the
Pharisees
began to
reason,
saying,
Who
is
this
which
speaketh
blasphemies?
Who
can
forgive
sins,
but
God
alone?

\VS{22}But
when
Jesus
perceived
their
thoughts, he
answering
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{What
reason ye
in
your
hearts?}}

\VS{23}{\WJ{Whether
is
easier,
to say,
Thy
sins
be forgiven
thee;
or
to say,
Rise up
and
walk?}}

\VS{24}{\WJ{But
that
ye may know
that
the Son
of man
hath
power
upon
earth
to forgive
sins,}} (he
said unto the sick of the
palsy,)
{\WJ{I say
unto thee,
Arise,
and
take up
thy
couch,
and go
into
thine
house.}}

\VS{25}And
immediately he rose
up
before
them, and
took
up
that whereon he
lay, and
departed
to his
own
house,
glorifying
God.

\VS{26}And they
were
all
amazed,
and they
glorified
God,
and were
filled with
fear,
saying, We have
seen strange
things to
day.


\par }{\PP \VS{27}¶
And
after these
things he went
forth,
and
saw a
publican,
named
Levi,
sitting
at the receipt of
custom:
and he
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Follow
me.}}

\VS{28}And he
left
all, rose
up, and
followed
him.

\VS{29}And
Levi
made
him a
great
feast
in his
own
house:
and there
was a
great
company of
publicans
and of
others
that sat
down
with
them.

\VS{30}But
their
scribes
and
Pharisees
murmured
against
his
disciples,
saying,
Why do ye
eat
and
drink
with
publicans
and
sinners?

\VS{31}And
Jesus
answering
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{They
that are whole
need
not
a physician;
but
they
that are
sick.}}

\VS{32}{\WJ{I came
not
to call
the righteous,
but
sinners
to
repentance.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{33}¶ And they
said
unto
him, Why
do the
disciples of
John
fast
often,
and
make
prayers,
and
likewise
{\ADD{the disciples}} of the
Pharisees;
but
thine
eat
and
drink?

\VS{34}And he
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{Can ye
make

of the bridechamber

And he
spake
also a
parable
unto
them;
{\WJ{No man
putteth
a piece

upon
an old;
if
otherwise,
then
both
the new

must be put
into

are preserved.}}

\par }\Chap{6}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And it came to
pass
on the
second
sabbath after the
first,
that
he
went
through the corn
fields;
and
his
disciples
plucked the ears of
corn,
and did
eat,
rubbing
{\ADD{them}}
in
{\ADD{their}}
hands.

\VS{2}And
certain of the
Pharisees
said unto
them,
Why do
ye that
which
is
not
lawful to
do
on the sabbath
days?

\VS{3}And
Jesus
answering
them
said,
{\WJ{Have ye
not
read
so much as
this,
what
David
did,
when
himself
was an hungred,
and
they which
were
with
him;}}

\VS{4}{\WJ{How
he went
into
the house
of God,

did take
and
eat
the shewbread,
and
gave
also
to them that were
with

it is
not
lawful
to eat
but
for the priests
alone?}}

\VS{5}And he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{That
the Son
of man
is
Lord
also
of the sabbath.}}

\VS{6}And it came to
pass
also
on
another
sabbath, that
he
entered
into the
synagogue
and
taught:
and
there
was a
man
whose
right
hand
was
withered.

\VS{7}And the
scribes
and
Pharisees
watched
him,
whether he would
heal
on the sabbath
day;
that they might
find an
accusation against
him.

\VS{8}But
he
knew
their
thoughts,
and
said to the
man which
had the
withered
hand,
{\WJ{Rise up,
and
stand forth
in
the midst.}}
And he
arose and stood
forth.

\VS{9}Then
said
Jesus
unto
them,
{\WJ{I will ask
you
one thing;
Is it lawful
on the sabbath days
to do good,
or
to do evil?
to save
life,
or
to destroy
{\ADD{it}}?}}

\VS{10}And looking round about
upon
them
all, he
said unto the
man,
{\WJ{Stretch forth
thy
hand.}}
And he
did
so:
and
his
hand was
restored
whole
as the
other.

\VS{11}And
they were
filled with
madness;
and
communed one
with
another
what they might
do to
Jesus.

\VS{12}And it came to
pass
in
those
days, that he went
out
into a
mountain to
pray,
and continued all
night
in
prayer to
God.

And
when it
was
day, he
called
{\ADD{unto him}}
his

of
them he
chose
twelve,

named
apostles;

he
also
named
Peter,)

Andrew
his

Judas
{\ADD{the brother}} of
James,

Judas
Iscariot,
which
also
was the

And he came
down
with
them, and
stood
in the

company of
his

people
out of
all
Judæa

Jerusalem,

coast of
Tyre
and
Sidon,
which
came to
hear
him,

healed
of
their
diseases;

vexed
with
unclean
spirits:
and they were
healed.

\VS{19}And the
whole

sought to
touch
him:
for there
went

out of

healed
{\ADD{them}}
all.

And
he lifted
up

\par }\Chap{7}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Now
when he had
ended
all
his

in the
audience of the
people, he
entered
into
Capernaum.

\VS{2}And a
certain
centurion’s
servant,
who
was
dear unto
him,
was
sick, and
ready to
die.

\VS{3}And when he
heard
of
Jesus, he
sent
unto
him the
elders of the
Jews,
beseeching
him
that he would
come and
heal
his
servant.

\VS{4}And when they
came
to
Jesus, they
besought
him
instantly,
saying,
That he
was
worthy for
whom he should
do
this:

\VS{5}For he
loveth
our
nation,
and
he hath
built
us a
synagogue.

\VS{6}Then
Jesus
went
with
them.
And when
he
was
now
not
far
from the
house, the
centurion
sent
friends
to
him,
saying unto
him,
Lord,
trouble
not
thyself:
for I
am
not
worthy
that thou shouldest
enter
under
my
roof:

\VS{7}Wherefore
neither thought
I
myself
worthy to
come
unto
thee:
but
say in a
word,
and
my
servant shall be
healed.

\VS{8}For
I
also
am a
man
set
under
authority,
having
under
me
soldiers,
and I
say unto
one,
Go,
and he
goeth;
and to
another,
Come,
and he
cometh;
and to
my
servant,
Do
this,
and he
doeth
{\ADD{it}}.

\VS{9}When
Jesus
heard these
things, he
marvelled at
him,
and turned him
about, and
said unto the
people that
followed
him,
{\WJ{I say
unto you,
I have
not
found
so great
faith, no,
not
in
Israel.}}

\VS{10}And they that were
sent,
returning
to the
house,
found the
servant
whole that had been
sick.


\par }{\PP \VS{11}¶
And it came to
pass the day
after, that he
went
into a
city
called
Nain;
and
many of
his
disciples went
with
him,
and
much
people.

\VS{12}Now
when he came
nigh to the
gate of the
city,
behold, there
was a dead
man carried
out, the
only
son of
his
mother,
and
she
was a
widow:
and
much
people of the
city
was
with
her.

\VS{13}And
when the
Lord
saw
her, he had
compassion
on
her,
and
said unto
her,
{\WJ{Weep
not.}}

\VS{14}And he
came and
touched the
bier:
and they that
bare
{\ADD{him}} stood
still.
And he
said,
{\WJ{Young man,
I say
unto thee,
Arise.}}

\VS{15}And he that was
dead sat
up,
and
began to
speak.
And he
delivered
him to
his
mother.

\VS{16}And there
came a
fear on
all:
and they
glorified
God,
saying,
That a
great
prophet is risen
up
among
us;
and,
That
God hath
visited
his
people.

\VS{17}And
this
rumour
of
him went
forth
throughout
all
Judæa,
and
throughout
all the region round
about.

\VS{18}And the
disciples of
John
shewed
him
of
all these
things.


\par }{\PP \VS{19}¶
And
John
calling
{\ADD{unto him}}
two of
his
disciples
sent
{\ADD{them}}
to
Jesus,
saying,
Art
thou he that should
come?
or look
we for
another?

\VS{20}When the
men were
come
unto
him, they
said,
John
Baptist hath
sent
us
unto
thee,
saying,
Art
thou he that should
come?
or look
we for
another?

\VS{21}And
in
that
same
hour he
cured
many
of
{\ADD{their}}
infirmities
and
plagues,
and of
evil
spirits;
and unto
many
{\ADD{that were}}
blind he
gave
sight.

\VS{22}Then
Jesus
answering
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Go your way,
and tell
John
what things
ye have seen
and
heard;
how that
the blind
see,

walk,
the lepers
are cleansed,

the dead
are raised,
to the poor

\VS{23}{\WJ{And
blessed
is
{\ADD{he}},
whosoever
shall
not
be offended
in
me.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{24}¶ And
when the
messengers of
John were
departed, he
began to
speak
unto the
people
concerning
John,
{\WJ{What
went ye out
into
the wilderness
for to see?
A reed
shaken
with
the wind?}}

\VS{25}{\WJ{But
what
went ye out
for to see?
A man
clothed
in
soft
raiment?
Behold,
they which
are
gorgeously
apparelled,
and

delicately,
are
in
kings’ courts.}}

\VS{26}{\WJ{But
what
went ye out
for to see?
A prophet?
Yea,

unto you,
and
much more than
a prophet.}}

\VS{27}{\WJ{This
is

of
whom
it is written,
Behold,
I
send
my

before
thy
face,
which

before
thee.}}

those that are born
of women
there is
not
a greater
prophet
than
John
the Baptist:
but
he that is least
in
the kingdom
of God
is
greater than
he.}}

\VS{29}And
all the
people that
heard
{\ADD{him}},
and the
publicans,
justified
God, being
baptized with the
baptism of
John.

\VS{30}But the
Pharisees
and
lawyers
rejected the
counsel of
God
against
themselves,
being
not
baptized
of
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{31}¶
And the
Lord
said,
{\WJ{Whereunto
then

of this
generation?
and
to what
are they

\VS{32}{\WJ{They are
like
unto children
sitting
in
the marketplace,
and
calling
one to another,
and
saying,
We have piped
unto you,
and
ye have
not
danced;
we have mourned
to you,
and
ye have
not
wept.}}

\VS{33}{\WJ{For
John

came
neither
eating

nor
drinking
wine;

And
one of the
Pharisees
desired
him
that he would
eat
with
him.
And he
went
into the
Pharisee’s
house, and sat down to
meat.

\VS{37}And,
behold, a
woman
in the
city,
which
was a
sinner, when she
knew
that
{\ADD{Jesus}} sat at
meat
in the
Pharisee’s
house,
brought an alabaster
box of
ointment,

\VS{38}And
stood
at
his
feet
behind
{\ADD{him}}
weeping, and
began to
wash
his
feet with
tears,
and did
wipe
{\ADD{them}} with the
hairs of
her
head,
and
kissed
his
feet,
and
anointed
{\ADD{them}} with the
ointment.

\VS{39}Now
when the
Pharisee
which had
bidden
him
saw
{\ADD{it}}, he
spake
within
himself,
saying, This
man,
if he
were a
prophet, would have
known
who
and what
manner of
woman
{\ADD{this is}}
that
toucheth
him:
for she
is a
sinner.

\VS{40}And
Jesus
answering
said
unto
him,
{\WJ{Simon,
I have
somewhat
to say
unto thee.}}
And he
saith,
Master, say
on.

\VS{41}{\WJ{There was
a certain
creditor
which had
two
debtors:
the one
owed
five hundred
pence,
and
the other
fifty.}}

\VS{42}{\WJ{And
when
they
had
nothing
to pay,
he frankly forgave
them both.
Tell me
therefore,
which
of them
will love
him
most?}}

\VS{43}Simon
answered
and
said, I
suppose
that
{\ADD{he}}, to
whom he
forgave
most.
And he
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Thou hast
rightly
judged.}}

\VS{44}And he
turned
to the
woman, and
said unto
Simon,
{\WJ{Seest thou
this
woman?
I entered
into
thine
house,
thou gavest me
no
water
for
my
feet:
but
she
hath washed
my

with tears,
and
wiped
{\ADD{them}}
with the hairs
of her
head.}}

\VS{45}{\WJ{Thou gavest
me
no

I came in
hath
not
ceased
to kiss
my

\VS{46}{\WJ{My

with oil
thou didst
not
anoint:

\VS{47}{\WJ{Wherefore

loveth
little.}}

\VS{48}And he
said unto
her,
{\WJ{Thy

are forgiven.}}

\VS{49}And
they
that sat at meat with
him
began to
say
within
themselves,
Who
is
this
that
forgiveth
sins
also?

\VS{50}And he
said
to the
woman,
{\WJ{Thy

in

afterward,
that

throughout

preaching
and shewing the glad

and the

{\ADD{were}}
with

which had
been

when

together,

by a

sprang up,

said these
things, he
cried,
{\WJ{He that hath
ears
to hear,
let him hear.}}

asked
him,
saying,

be?

\VS{10}And he
said,
{\WJ{Unto you
it is given
to know
the mysteries
of the kingdom
of God:
but
to others
in
parables;
that
seeing
they might
not
see,
and
hearing
they might
not
understand.}}

\VS{11}{\WJ{Now
the parable
is
this:
The seed
is
the word
of God.}}

\VS{12}{\WJ{Those
by
the way side
are they
that
hear;
then
cometh
the devil,
and
taketh away
the word
out of
their
hearts,
lest
they should believe
and be saved.}}

\VS{13}{\WJ{They
on
the rock
{\ADD{are they}},
which,
when
they hear,
receive
the word
with
joy;
and
these
have
no
root,
which
for
a while
believe,
and
in
time
of temptation
fall away.}}

\VS{14}{\WJ{And
that
which fell
among
thorns
are
they,
which,
when they have heard,
go forth,
and
are choked
with
cares
and
riches
and
pleasures
of
{\ADD{this}}
life,
and
bring
no fruit
to perfection.}}

\VS{15}{\WJ{But
that
on
the good
ground
are
they,
which
in
an honest
and
good
heart,
having heard
the word,
keep
{\ADD{it}},
and
bring forth fruit
with
patience.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{16}{\WJ{¶
No man,
when he hath lighted
a candle,
covereth
it
with a vessel,
or
putteth
{\ADD{it}}
under
a bed;
but
setteth
{\ADD{it}}
on
a candlestick,
that
they which enter in
may see
the light.}}

\VS{17}{\WJ{For
nothing
is
secret,
that
shall
not
be made
manifest;
neither
{\ADD{any thing}}
hid,
that
shall
not
be known
and
come
abroad.}}

\VS{18}{\WJ{Take heed
therefore
how
ye hear:
for
whosoever
hath,
to him
shall be given;
and
whosoever
hath
not,
from
him
shall be taken
even
that
which he seemeth
to have.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{19}¶
Then
came
to
him
{\ADD{his}}
mother
and
his
brethren,
and
could
not
come at
him
for the
press.

\VS{20}And it was
told
him
{\ADD{by certain}} which
said,
Thy
mother
and
thy
brethren
stand
without,
desiring to
see
thee.

\VS{21}And he
answered and
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{My
mother
and
my
brethren
are
these
which
hear
the word
of God,
and
do
it.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{22}¶
Now it came to
pass
on a
certain
day,
that
he
went
into a
ship
with
his
disciples:
and he
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{Let us go over
unto
the other side
of the lake.}}
And they launched
forth.

\VS{23}But as
they
sailed he fell
asleep:
and there came
down a
storm of
wind
on the
lake;
and they were
filled
{\ADD{with water}},
and were in
jeopardy.

\VS{24}And they came to
him, and
awoke
him,
saying,
Master,
master, we
perish.
Then he
arose, and
rebuked the
wind
and the
raging of the
water:
and they
ceased,
and there
was a
calm.

\VS{25}And he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Where
is
your
faith?}}
And they being
afraid
wondered,
saying
one
to
another,
What manner of
man
is
this!
for he
commandeth
even the
winds
and
water,
and they
obey
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{26}¶
And they
arrived
at the
country of the
Gadarenes,
which
is over
against
Galilee.

\VS{27}And
when
he
went
forth to
land, there
met
him out
of the
city a
certain
man,
which
had
devils
long
time,
and
ware
no
clothes,
neither
abode
in
{\ADD{any}}
house,
but
in the
tombs.

\VS{28}When he
saw
Jesus, he cried
out, and fell
down before
him,
and with a
loud
voice
said,
What have
I to
do with
thee,
Jesus,
{\ADD{thou}}
Son of
God most
high? I
beseech
thee,
torment
me
not.

\VS{29}(For he had
commanded the
unclean
spirit to come
out
of the
man.
For
oftentimes it had
caught
him:
and he was
kept
bound with
chains
and in
fetters;
and he
brake the
bands, and was
driven
of the
devil
into the
wilderness.)

\VS{30}And
Jesus
asked
him,
saying,
{\WJ{What
is
thy
name?}}
And he
said,
Legion:
because
many
devils were
entered
into
him.

\VS{31}And they
besought
him
that he
would
not
command
them to go
out
into the
deep.

\VS{32}And there
was
there an
herd of
many
swine
feeding
on the
mountain:
and they
besought
him
that he would
suffer
them to
enter
into
them.
And he
suffered
them.

\VS{33}Then
went the
devils out
of the
man, and
entered
into the
swine:
and the
herd ran
violently
down a steep
place
into the
lake,
and were
choked.

\VS{34}When they that
fed
{\ADD{them}}
saw what was
done, they
fled,
and
went and
told
{\ADD{it}}
in the
city
and
in the
country.

\VS{35}Then they went
out to
see what was
done;
and
came
to
Jesus,
and
found the
man, out
of
whom the
devils were
departed,
sitting
at the
feet of
Jesus,
clothed,
and in his right
mind:
and they were
afraid.

\VS{36}They
also
which
saw
{\ADD{it}}
told them by what
means he that was possessed of the
devils was
healed.


\par }{\PP \VS{37}¶
Then the
whole
multitude of the
country of the
Gadarenes round
about
besought
him to
depart
from
them;
for they were taken
with
great
fear:
and
he went
up
into the
ship, and returned back
again.

\VS{38}Now the
man out
of
whom the
devils
were
departed
besought
him that he might be
with
him:
but
Jesus
sent
him
away,
saying,

\VS{39}{\WJ{Return
to
thine own
house,
and
shew
how great things
God
hath done
unto thee.}}
And he went his
way, and
published
throughout the
whole
city how great
things
Jesus had
done unto
him.

\VS{40}And it came to pass,
that,
when
Jesus was
returned, the
people
{\ADD{gladly}}
received
him:
for they
were
all
waiting for
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{41}¶
And,
behold, there
came a
man
named
Jairus,
and
he
was a
ruler of the
synagogue:
and he fell
down
at
Jesus’
feet, and
besought
him that he would
come
into
his
house:

\VS{42}For
he
had one
only
daughter,
about
twelve years of
age,
and
she lay a
dying.
But
as
he
went the
people
thronged
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{43}¶
And a
woman
having an
issue of
blood
twelve
years,
which had
spent
all her
living
upon
physicians,
neither
could be
healed
of
any,

\VS{44}Came
behind
{\ADD{him}}, and
touched the
border of
his
garment:
and
immediately
her
issue of
blood
stanched.

\VS{45}And
Jesus
said,
{\WJ{Who
touched
me?}}
When
all
denied,
Peter
and they that were
with
him
said,
Master, the
multitude
throng
thee
and
press
{\ADD{thee}},
and sayest
thou,
{\WJ{Who
touched
me?}}

\VS{46}And
Jesus
said,
{\WJ{Somebody
hath touched
me:
for
I
perceive that
virtue
is gone out
of
me.}}

\VS{47}And
when the
woman
saw
that she
was
not
hid, she
came
trembling,
and falling down
before
him, she
declared unto
him
before
all the
people
for
what
cause she had
touched
him,
and
how she was
healed
immediately.

\VS{48}And he
said unto
her,
{\WJ{Daughter,
be of good comfort:
thy
faith
hath made
thee
whole;
go
in
peace.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{49}¶
While
he
yet
spake, there
cometh
one
from the ruler of the
synagogue’s
{\ADD{house}},
saying to
him,
Thy
daughter is
dead;
trouble
not the
Master.

\VS{50}But
when
Jesus
heard
{\ADD{it}}, he
answered
him,
saying,
{\WJ{Fear
not:
believe
only,
and
she shall be made whole.}}

\VS{51}And when he
came
into the
house, he
suffered
no
man to go
in,
save
Peter,
and
James,
and
John,
and the
father
and the
mother of the
maiden.

\VS{52}And
all
wept,
and
bewailed
her:
but he
said,
{\WJ{Weep
not;
she is
not
dead,
but
sleepeth.}}

\VS{53}And they
laughed
him to
scorn,
knowing
that she was
dead.

\VS{54}And
he put
them
all
out,
and
took
her by the
hand, and
called,
saying,
{\WJ{Maid,
arise.}}

\VS{55}And
her
spirit came
again,
and she
arose
straightway:
and he
commanded to
give
her
meat.

\VS{56}And
her
parents were
astonished:
but he
charged
them that they should
tell no
man what was
done.




\par }\Chap{9}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Then he
called
his
twelve
disciples
together, and
gave
them
power
and
authority
over
all
devils,
and to
cure
diseases.

\VS{2}And he
sent
them to
preach the
kingdom of
God,
and to
heal the
sick.

\VS{3}And he
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{Take
nothing
for
{\ADD{your}}
journey,
neither
staves,
nor
scrip,
neither
bread,
neither
money;
neither
have
two
coats
apiece.}}

\VS{4}{\WJ{And
whatsoever
house
ye enter
into,
there
abide,
and
thence
depart.}}

\VS{5}{\WJ{And
whosoever
will
not
receive
you,
when ye go out
of
that
city,
shake off
the
very
dust
from
your
feet
for
a testimony
against
them.}}

\VS{6}And they
departed, and
went
through the
towns, preaching the
gospel,
and
healing every
where.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}¶
Now
Herod the
tetrarch
heard
of
all that was
done
by
him:
and he was
perplexed,
because
that it was
said
of
some,
that
John was
risen
from the
dead;

\VS{8}And
of
some,
that
Elias had
appeared;
and of
others,
that
one of
the
old
prophets was risen
again.

\VS{9}And
Herod
said,
John
have
I
beheaded:
but
who
is
this,
of
whom
I
hear such
things?
And he
desired to
see
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{10}¶
And the
apostles, when they were
returned,
told
him all
that they had
done.
And he
took
them, and went
aside
privately
into
a
desert
place belonging to the
city
called
Bethsaida.

\VS{11}And the
people, when they
knew
{\ADD{it}},
followed
him:
and he
received
them, and
spake unto
them
of the
kingdom of
God,
and
healed them that
had
need of
healing.

\VS{12}And
when the
day
began to wear
away,
then
came the
twelve, and
said unto
him,
Send the
multitude
away,
that they may
go
into the
towns
and
country round
about, and
lodge,
and
get
victuals:
for we
are
here
in a
desert
place.

\VS{13}But he
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{Give
ye
them
to eat.}}
And they
said,
We
have
no
more
but
five
loaves
and
two
fishes;
except
we should
go and
buy
meat
for
all
this
people.

\VS{14}For they
were
about five
thousand
men.
And he
said
to
his
disciples,
{\WJ{Make
them
sit down
by
fifties
in a company.}}

\VS{15}And they
did
so,
and
made them
all sit
down.

\VS{16}Then he
took
the
five
loaves
and
the
two
fishes, and looking
up
to
heaven, he
blessed
them,
and
brake,
and
gave to the
disciples to set
before the
multitude.

\VS{17}And they did
eat,
and
were
all
filled:
and there was taken
up of
fragments that
remained to
them
twelve
baskets.


\par }{\PP \VS{18}¶
And it came to
pass,
as
he
was
alone
praying, his
disciples were
with
him:
and he
asked
them,
saying,
{\WJ{Whom
say
the people
that
I
am?}}

\VS{19}They
answering
said,
John the
Baptist;
but
some
{\ADD{say}},
Elias;
and
others
{\ADD{say}},
that
one of
the
old
prophets is risen
again.

\VS{20}He
said unto
them,
{\WJ{But
whom
say
ye
that
I
am?}}
Peter
answering
said, The
Christ of
God.

\VS{21}And he straitly
charged
them, and
commanded
{\ADD{them}} to
tell no
man that
thing;

\VS{22}Saying,
{\WJ{The Son
of man
must
suffer
many things,
and
be rejected
of
the elders
and
chief priests
and
scribes,
and
be slain,
and
be raised
the
third
day.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{23}¶
And he
said
to
{\ADD{them}}
all,
{\WJ{If
any
{\ADD{man}}
will
come
after
me,
let him deny
himself,
and
take up
his
cross
daily,
and
follow
me.}}

\VS{24}{\WJ{For
whosoever
will
save
his
life
shall lose
it:
but
whosoever
will lose
his
life
for
my
sake,
the same
shall save
it.}}

\VS{25}{\WJ{For
what
is
a man
advantaged,
if he gain
the whole
world,
and
lose
himself,
or
be cast away?}}

\VS{26}{\WJ{For
whosoever
shall be ashamed
of me
and
of
my
words,
of him
shall
the Son
of man
be ashamed,
when
he shall come
in
his own
glory,
and
{\ADD{in his}}
Father’s,
and
of the
holy
angels.}}

\VS{27}{\WJ{But
I tell
you
of a truth,
there be
some
standing
here,
which
shall
not
taste
of death,
till
they see
the kingdom
of God.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{28}¶
And it came to
pass
about
an
eight
days
after
these
sayings, he
took
Peter
and
John
and
James, and went
up
into a
mountain to
pray.

\VS{29}And
as
he
prayed, the
fashion
of
his
countenance was
altered,
and
his
raiment
{\ADD{was}}
white
{\ADD{and}}
glistering.

\VS{30}And,
behold, there talked
with
him
two
men,
which
were
Moses
and
Elias:

\VS{31}Who
appeared
in
glory, and
spake
of
his
decease
which he
should
accomplish
at
Jerusalem.

\VS{32}But
Peter
and they that
were
with
him were
heavy with
sleep:
and when they were
awake, they
saw
his
glory,
and
the
two
men that stood
with
him.

\VS{33}And it came to
pass,
as
they
departed
from
him,
Peter
said
unto
Jesus,
Master, it
is
good for
us to
be
here:
and let us
make
three
tabernacles;
one for
thee,
and
one for
Moses,
and
one for
Elias:
not
knowing
what he
said.

\VS{34}While
he
thus
spake, there
came a
cloud,
and
overshadowed
them:
and they
feared
as
they
entered
into the
cloud.

\VS{35}And there
came a
voice
out of the
cloud,
saying,
This
is
my
beloved
Son:
hear
him.

\VS{36}And
when the
voice was
past,
Jesus was
found
alone.
And
they kept it
close,
and
told no
man
in
those
days
any of those things
which they had
seen.


\par }{\PP \VS{37}¶
And it came to pass,
that
on
the
next
day,
when
they were come
down
from the
hill,
much
people
met
him.

\VS{38}And,
behold, a
man
of the
company cried
out,
saying,
Master, I
beseech
thee,
look
upon
my
son:
for he
is
mine only
child.

\VS{39}And,
lo, a
spirit
taketh
him,
and
he
suddenly crieth
out;
and it
teareth
him
that he foameth
again,
and
bruising
him
hardly
departeth
from
him.

\VS{40}And I
besought
thy
disciples
to
cast
him
out;
and they
could
not.

\VS{41}And
Jesus
answering
said,
{\WJ{O
faithless
and
perverse
generation,
how
long
shall I be
with
you,
and
suffer
you?
Bring
thy
son
hither.}}

\VS{42}And
as
he
was
yet a
coming, the
devil
threw
him
down,
and
tare
{\ADD{him}}.
And
Jesus
rebuked
the
unclean
spirit,
and
healed the
child,
and
delivered
him
again
to
his
father.


\par }{\PP \VS{43}¶
And they
were
all
amazed
at the mighty
power of
God.
But while they
wondered every
one
at all
things
which
Jesus
did, he
said
unto
his
disciples,

\VS{44}{\WJ{Let
these
sayings
sink down
into
your
ears:
for
the Son
of man
shall
be delivered
into
the hands
of men.}}

\VS{45}But they understood
not
this
saying,
and it
was
hid
from
them,
that they
perceived
it
not:
and they
feared to
ask
him
of
that
saying.


\par }{\PP \VS{46}¶
Then there
arose a
reasoning
among
them,
which of
them should
be
greatest.

\VS{47}And
Jesus,
perceiving the
thought
of
their
heart,
took a
child, and
set
him
by
him,

\VS{48}And
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Whosoever
shall receive
this
child
in
my
name
receiveth
me:
and
whosoever
shall receive
me
receiveth
him that sent
me:
for
he that is
least
among
you
all,
the same
shall be
great.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{49}¶
And
John
answered and
said,
Master, we
saw
one casting
out
devils
in
thy
name;
and we
forbad
him,
because he
followeth
not
with
us.

\VS{50}And
Jesus
said
unto
him,
{\WJ{Forbid
{\ADD{him}}
not:
for
he
that
is
not
against
us
is
for
us.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{51}¶
And it came to
pass,
when the
time was
come
that
he should be received
up,
he stedfastly
set
his
face to
go
to
Jerusalem,

\VS{52}And
sent
messengers
before
his
face:
and they
went, and
entered
into a
village of the
Samaritans,
to make
ready for
him.

\VS{53}And they
did
not
receive
him,
because
his
face
was as though he would
go
to
Jerusalem.

\VS{54}And
when
his
disciples
James
and
John
saw
{\ADD{this}}, they
said,
Lord, wilt
thou that we
command
fire to come
down
from
heaven,
and
consume
them,
even
as
Elias
did?

\VS{55}But he
turned, and
rebuked
them,
and
said,
{\WJ{Ye know
not
what manner
of spirit
ye
are
of.}}

\VS{56}{\WJ{For
the Son
of man
is
not
come
to destroy
men’s
lives,
but
to save
{\ADD{them}}.}}
And
they went
to
another
village.


\par }{\PP \VS{57}¶
And it came to pass,
that,
as
they
went
in the
way, a
certain
{\ADD{man}}
said
unto
him,
Lord, I will
follow
thee
whithersoever thou
goest.

\VS{58}And
Jesus
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Foxes
have
holes,
and
birds
of the air
{\ADD{have}}
nests;
but
the Son
of man
hath
not
where
to lay
{\ADD{his}}
head.}}

\VS{59}And he
said
unto
another,
{\WJ{Follow
me.}}
But he
said,
Lord,
suffer
me
first to
go and
bury
my
father.

\VS{60}Jesus
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Let
the dead
bury
their
dead:
but
go
thou
and preach
the kingdom
of God.}}

\VS{61}And
another
also
said,
Lord, I will
follow
thee;
but
let
me
first
go
bid
them
farewell, which
are at
home
at
my
house.

\VS{62}And
Jesus
said
unto
him,
{\WJ{No man,
having put
his
hand
to
the plough,
and
looking
back,
is
fit
for
the kingdom

And,

laid

answered with
indignation,
because that

healed on the sabbath

said unto the

ought to
work:
in

therefore

not on the

then
answered
him,
and
said,
{\WJ{{\ADD{Thou}}

doth
not

\VS{19}And
Jesus
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Why
callest thou
me
good?
none
{\ADD{is}}
good,
save
one,
{\ADD{that is}},
God.}}

\VS{20}{\WJ{Thou knowest
the commandments,
Do
not
commit adultery,
Do
not
kill,
Do
not
steal,
Do
not
bear false witness,
Honour
thy
father
and
thy
mother.}}

\VS{21}And he
said,
All
these have I
kept
from
my youth
up.

\VS{22}Now
when
Jesus
heard these
things, he
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Yet
lackest
thou
one thing:
sell
all
that
thou hast,
and
distribute
unto the poor,
and
thou shalt have
treasure
in
heaven:
and
come,
follow
me.}}

\VS{23}And
when he
heard
this, he
was very
sorrowful:
for he
was
very
rich.

\VS{24}And
when
Jesus saw
that
he
was very
sorrowful, he
said,
{\WJ{How
hardly
shall
they that
have
riches
enter
into
the kingdom
of God!}}

\VS{25}{\WJ{For
it is
easier for
a camel
to go
through
a needle’s
eye,
than for
a rich man
to enter
into
the kingdom
of God.}}

\VS{26}And they
that
heard
{\ADD{it}}
said,
Who
then
can be
saved?

\VS{27}And he
said,
{\WJ{The things which
are
impossible
with
men
are possible
with
God.}}

\VS{28}Then
Peter
said,
Lo,
we have
left
all,
and
followed
thee.

\VS{29}And he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Verily
I say
unto you,
There is
no man
that
hath left
house,
or
parents,
or
brethren,
or
wife,
or
children,

of God’s
sake,}}

\VS{30}{\WJ{Who
shall
not
receive
manifold more
in
this
present time,
and
in
the world
to come
life
everlasting.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{31}¶
Then he
took
{\ADD{unto him}} the
twelve, and
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{Behold,
we go up
to
Jerusalem,
and
all things
that are
written
by
the prophets
concerning the Son
of man
shall be accomplished.}}

\VS{32}{\WJ{For
he shall be delivered
unto the Gentiles,
and
shall be mocked,
and
spitefully entreated,
and
spitted on:}}

\VS{33}{\WJ{And
they shall scourge
{\ADD{him}},
and put
him
to death:
and
the third
day
he shall rise again.}}

\VS{34}And
they
understood
none of these
things:
and
this
saying
was
hid
from
them,
neither knew
they the things
which were
spoken.


\par }{\PP \VS{35}¶
And it came to
pass, that
as
he was come
nigh
unto
Jericho, a
certain blind
man
sat
by the way
side
begging:

\VS{36}And
hearing the
multitude pass
by, he
asked
what
it
meant.

\VS{37}And they
told
him,
that
Jesus of
Nazareth passeth
by.

\VS{38}And he
cried,
saying,
Jesus,
{\ADD{thou}}
Son of
David, have
mercy on
me.

\VS{39}And they
which went
before
rebuked
him,
that he should
hold
his
peace:
but he
cried so
much the
more,
{\ADD{Thou}}
Son of
David, have
mercy on
me.

\VS{40}And
Jesus
stood, and
commanded
him to be
brought
unto
him: and
when
he was come
near, he
asked
him,

\VS{41}Saying,
{\WJ{What
wilt thou
that I shall do
unto thee?}}
And he
said,
Lord,
that I may receive my
sight.

\VS{42}And
Jesus
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Receive thy sight:
thy
faith
hath saved
thee.}}

\VS{43}And
immediately he received his
sight,
and
followed
him,
glorifying
God:
and
all the
people, when they
saw
{\ADD{it}},
gave
praise unto
God.




\par }\Chap{19}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
{\ADD{Jesus}}
entered and
passed through
Jericho.

\VS{2}And,
behold,
{\ADD{there was}} a
man
named
Zacchæus,
which
was the chief among the
publicans,
and
he
was
rich.

\VS{3}And he
sought to
see
Jesus
who he
was;
and
could
not
for the
press,
because he
was
little of
stature.

\VS{4}And he
ran
before, and climbed
up
into a sycomore
tree
to
see
him:
for he
was to
pass
that
{\ADD{way}}.

\VS{5}And
when
Jesus
came
to the
place, he looked
up, and
saw
him,
and
said
unto
him,
{\WJ{Zacchæus,
make haste,
and come down;
for
to day
I
must
abide
at
thy
house.}}

\VS{6}And he made
haste, and came
down,
and
received
him
joyfully.

\VS{7}And
when they
saw
{\ADD{it}}, they
all
murmured,
saying,
That he was
gone to be
guest
with a
man that is a
sinner.

\VS{8}And
Zacchæus
stood, and
said
unto the
Lord;
Behold,
Lord, the
half of
my
goods I
give to the
poor;
and
if I have
taken any
thing from any
man by false
accusation, I
restore
{\ADD{him}}
fourfold.

\VS{9}And
Jesus
said
unto
him,
{\WJ{This day
is salvation
come
to this
house,
forsomuch
as
he
also
is
a son
of Abraham.}}

\VS{10}{\WJ{For
the Son
of man
is come
to seek
and
to save
that which
was lost.}}

\VS{11}And
as
they
heard these
things, he
added and
spake a
parable,
because
he
was
nigh to
Jerusalem, and
because
they
thought
that the
kingdom of
God
should
immediately
appear.

\VS{12}He
said
therefore,
{\WJ{A certain
nobleman
went
into
a far
country
to receive
for himself
a kingdom,
and
to return.}}

\VS{13}{\WJ{And
he called
his
ten
servants,
and delivered
them
ten
pounds,
and
said
unto
them,
Occupy
till
I come.}}

\VS{14}{\WJ{But
his
citizens
hated
him,
and
sent
a message
after
him,
saying,
We will
not
have
this
{\ADD{man}}
to reign
over
us.}}

\VS{15}{\WJ{And
it came to pass,
that when
he was
returned,
having received
the kingdom,
then
he commanded
these
servants
to be called
unto him,
to whom
he had given
the money,
that
he might know
how much
every man
had gained by trading.}}

\VS{16}{\WJ{Then
came
the first,
saying,
Lord,
thy
pound
hath gained
ten
pounds.}}

\VS{17}{\WJ{And
he said
unto him,
Well,
thou good
servant:
because
thou hast been
faithful
in
a very little,
have thou
authority
over
ten
cities.}}

\VS{18}{\WJ{And
the second
came,
saying,
Lord,
thy
pound
hath gained
five

\VS{19}{\WJ{And
he said
likewise
to him,
Be
thou
also
over
five

\VS{20}{\WJ{And
another
came,
saying,

behold,
{\ADD{here is}}
thy
pound,
which
I have
kept laid up
in
a napkin:}}

\VS{21}{\WJ{For
I feared
thee,
because
thou art
an austere
man:
thou takest up
that
thou layedst
not
down,
and
reapest
that
thou didst
not
sow.}}

\VS{22}{\WJ{And
he saith
unto him,
Out of
thine own
mouth
will I judge
thee,
{\ADD{thou}}
wicked
servant.
Thou knewest
that
I
was
an austere
man,
taking up
that
I laid
not
down,
and
reaping
that
I did
not
sow:}}

\VS{23}{\WJ{Wherefore
then
gavest
not
thou
my
money
into
the bank,
that at
my
coming
I might have required
mine own
with
usury?}}

\VS{24}{\WJ{And
he said
unto them that
stood by,
Take
from
him
the pound,
and
give
{\ADD{it}}
to him that
hath
ten
pounds.}}

\VS{25}{\WJ{(And
they said
unto him,
Lord,
he hath
ten
pounds.)}}

\VS{26}{\WJ{For
I say
unto you,
That
unto every one
which
hath
shall be given;
and
from
him
that hath
not,
even

from
him.}}

\VS{27}{\WJ{But
those
mine
enemies,
which
would
not
that I
should reign
over
them,
bring
hither,
and
slay
{\ADD{them}}
before

\par }{\PP \VS{28}¶
And when he
had
thus
spoken, he
went
before, ascending
up
to
Jerusalem.

\VS{29}And it came to
pass,
when he was come
nigh
to
Bethphage
and
Bethany,
at the
mount
called
{\ADD{the mount}} of
Olives, he
sent
two of
his
disciples,

\VS{30}Saying,
{\WJ{Go ye
into
the village
over against
{\ADD{you}};
in
the which
at your entering
ye shall find
a colt
tied,
whereon
yet
never
man
sat:
loose
him,
and bring
{\ADD{him hither}}.}}

\VS{31}{\WJ{And
if
any man
ask
you,
Why
do ye loose
{\ADD{him}}?
thus
shall ye say
unto him,
Because
the Lord
hath
need
of him.}}

\VS{32}And they
that were sent
went their
way, and
found even
as he had
said unto
them.

\VS{33}And as
they were
loosing the
colt, the
owners
thereof
said
unto
them,
Why loose
ye the
colt?

\VS{34}And they
said, The
Lord
hath
need of
him.

\VS{35}And they
brought
him
to
Jesus:
and they
cast
their
garments
upon the
colt, and they
set
Jesus
thereon.

\VS{36}And as
he
went, they
spread
their
clothes
in the
way.

\VS{37}And when
he was come
nigh, even
now
at the
descent of the
mount of
Olives, the
whole
multitude of the
disciples
began to
rejoice and
praise
God with a
loud
voice
for
all the mighty
works
that they had
seen;

\VS{38}Saying,
Blessed
{\ADD{be}} the
King
that
cometh
in the
name of the
Lord:
peace
in
heaven,
and
glory
in the
highest.

\VS{39}And
some of the
Pharisees
from among the
multitude
said
unto
him,
Master,
rebuke
thy
disciples.

\VS{40}And he
answered and
said unto
them,
{\WJ{I tell
you
that,
if
these
should hold their peace,
the stones
would immediately cry out.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{41}¶
And
when he was come
near, he
beheld the
city, and
wept
over
it,

\VS{42}Saying,
{\WJ{If
thou hadst known,
even
thou,
at least
in
this
thy
day,
the things
{\ADD{which belong}}
unto
thy

but
now
they are hid
from
thine
eyes.}}

\VS{43}{\WJ{For

shall lay
thee

thee;
and

thou knewest
not
the time

visitation.}}

\VS{45}And he
went
into the
temple, and
began to cast
out them
that
sold
therein,
and them that
bought;

\VS{46}Saying unto
them,
{\WJ{It is written,
My
house
is
the house
of prayer:
but

have made
it
a den

\VS{47}And he
taught
daily
in the
temple.
But the chief
priests
and the
scribes
and the
chief of the
people
sought to
destroy
him,

\VS{48}And
could
not
find
what they might
do:
for
all the
people were very
attentive to
hear
him.




\par }\Chap{20}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And it came to
pass,
{\ADD{that}}
on
one of
those
days, as
he
taught the
people
in the
temple,
and preached the
gospel, the chief
priests
and the
scribes came
upon
{\ADD{him}}
with the
elders,

\VS{2}And
spake
unto
him,
saying,
Tell
us,
by
what
authority doest
thou these
things?
or
who
is he
that
gave
thee
this
authority?

\VS{3}And he
answered and
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{I will
also
ask
you
one
thing;
and
answer
me:}}

\VS{4}{\WJ{The baptism
of John,
was it
from
heaven,
or
of
men?}}

\VS{5}And they
reasoned
with
themselves,
saying,
If we shall
say,
From
heaven; he will
say,
Why
then believed
ye
him
not?

\VS{6}But
and
if we
say,
Of
men;
all the
people will
stone
us:
for they
be persuaded
that
John
was a
prophet.

\VS{7}And they
answered, that they
could
not
tell
whence
{\ADD{it was}}.

\VS{8}And
Jesus
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Neither
tell
I
you
by
what
authority
I do
these things.}}

\VS{9}Then began
he to
speak
to the
people
this
parable;
{\WJ{A certain
man
planted
a vineyard,
and
let
it
forth
to husbandmen,
and
went into a far country
for a long
time.}}

\VS{10}{\WJ{And
at
the season
he sent
a servant
to
the husbandmen,
that
they should give
him
of
the fruit
of the vineyard:
but
the husbandmen
beat
him,
and sent
{\ADD{him}}
away
empty.}}

\VS{11}{\WJ{And
again
he sent
another
servant:
and
they beat
him also,
and
entreated
{\ADD{him}}
shamefully,
and sent
{\ADD{him}}
away
empty.}}

\VS{12}{\WJ{And
again
he sent
a third:
and
they wounded
him
also,
and cast
{\ADD{him}}
out.}}

\VS{13}{\WJ{Then
said
the lord
of the vineyard,
What
shall I do?
I will send
my
beloved
son:
it may be
they will reverence
{\ADD{him}}
when they see
him.}}

\VS{14}{\WJ{But
when the husbandmen
saw
him,
they reasoned
among
themselves,
saying,
This
is
the heir:
come,
let us kill
him,
that
the inheritance
may be
ours.}}

\VS{15}{\WJ{So
they cast
him
out of
the vineyard,
and killed
{\ADD{him}}.
What
therefore
shall
the lord
of the vineyard
do
unto them?}}

\VS{16}{\WJ{He shall come
and
destroy
these
husbandmen,
and
shall give
the vineyard
to others.}} And
when they
heard
{\ADD{it}}, they
said, God
forbid.

\VS{17}And he
beheld
them, and
said,
{\WJ{What
is
this
then
that
is written,
The stone
which
the builders
rejected,
the same
is become
the
head
of the corner?}}

\VS{18}{\WJ{Whosoever
shall fall
upon
that
stone
shall be broken;
but
on
whomsoever
it shall fall,
it will grind
him
to powder.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{19}¶
And the chief
priests
and the
scribes the
same
hour
sought to
lay
hands
on
him;
and they
feared the
people:
for they
perceived
that he had
spoken
this
parable
against
them.

\VS{20}And they
watched
{\ADD{him}}, and sent
forth
spies, which should
feign
themselves just
men,
that they might take
hold of
his
words, that
so they might
deliver
him
unto the
power
and
authority of the
governor.

\VS{21}And they
asked
him,
saying,
Master, we
know
that thou
sayest
and
teachest
rightly,
neither acceptest
thou the
person
{\ADD{of any}},
but
teachest the
way of
God
truly:

\VS{22}Is it
lawful for
us to
give
tribute unto
Cæsar,
or
no?

\VS{23}But he
perceived
their
craftiness, and
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{Why
tempt ye
me?}}

\VS{24}{\WJ{Shew
me
a penny.
Whose
image
and
superscription
hath it?}} They
answered
and
said,
Cæsar’s.

\VS{25}And he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Render
therefore
unto Cæsar
the things
which be Cæsar’s,
and
unto God
the things
which be God’s.}}

\VS{26}And they
could
not take hold
of
his
words
before the
people:
and they
marvelled
at
his
answer, and held their
peace.


\par }{\PP \VS{27}¶
Then came
to
{\ADD{him}}
certain of the
Sadducees,
which deny
that there
is any
resurrection; and they
asked
him,

\VS{28}Saying,
Master,
Moses
wrote unto
us,
If any
man’s
brother
die,
having a
wife,
and
he
die without
children,
that
his
brother should
take his
wife,
and raise
up
seed unto
his
brother.

\VS{29}There
were
therefore
seven
brethren:
and the
first
took a
wife, and
died without
children.

\VS{30}And the
second
took her to
wife,
and
he
died
childless.

\VS{31}And the
third
took her;
and in like
manner the
seven
also: and they
left
no
children,
and
died.

\VS{32}Last of
all the
woman
died
also.

\VS{33}Therefore
in the
resurrection
whose
wife of
them is
she?
for
seven
had
her to
wife.

\VS{34}And
Jesus
answering
said unto
them,
{\WJ{The children
of this
world
marry,
and
are given in marriage:}}

\VS{35}{\WJ{But
they which
shall be accounted worthy
to obtain
that
world,
and
the resurrection
from
the dead,
neither
marry,
nor
are given in marriage:}}

\VS{36}{\WJ{Neither
can
they die
any more:
for
they are
equal unto the angels;
and
are
the children
of God,
being
the children
of the resurrection.}}

\VS{37}{\WJ{Now
that
the dead
are raised,
even
Moses
shewed
at
the bush,
when
he calleth
the Lord
the God
of Abraham,
and
the God
of Isaac,
and
the God
of Jacob.}}

\VS{38}{\WJ{For
he is
not
a God
of the dead,
but
of the living:
for
all
live
unto him.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{39}¶
Then
certain of the
scribes
answering
said,
Master, thou
hast
well
said.

\VS{40}And after
that they
durst
not
ask
him
any
{\ADD{question at all}}.

\VS{41}And he
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{How
say they
that Christ
is
David’s
son?}}

\VS{42}{\WJ{And

himself
saith
in

therefore

said unto

the chief rooms
at

up, and
saw the rich

casting
their

saw
also a

in
thither
two

\VS{3}And he
said,

spake
of the

be?
and
what
sign
{\ADD{

when these

said,

kill

for they
feared the

Then
entered
Satan
into
Judas

communed with the chief

how he might

when the

down,

And there
was
also a

And the

said,

said unto
him,
Lord, I
am
ready to
go
with
thee,
both
into
prison,
and
to
death.

said,
{\WJ{I tell

said unto

{\WJ{When
I sent
you
without

any

And they
said,
Nothing.

\VS{36}Then said
he unto
them,
{\WJ{But

an end.}}

\VS{38}And they
said,
Lord,
behold,
here
{\ADD{are}}
two
swords.
And he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{It is

\par }{\PP \VS{39}¶
And he came
out, and
went,
as he was
wont,
to the
mount of
Olives;
and
his
disciples
also
followed
him.

\VS{40}And when he
was
at the
place, he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Pray that
ye enter
not
into
temptation.}}

\VS{41}And
he was
withdrawn
from
them
about a
stone’s
cast,
and
kneeled
down, and
prayed,

\VS{42}Saying,
{\WJ{Father,
if
thou be willing,
remove
this
cup
from
me:
nevertheless
not
my
will,
but
thine,

\VS{43}And there
appeared an
angel unto
him
from
heaven,
strengthening
him.

\VS{44}And
being
in an
agony he
prayed more
earnestly:
and
his
sweat
was as it
were great
drops of
blood falling
down
to the
ground.

\VS{45}And when he rose
up
from
prayer, and was
come
to his
disciples, he
found
them
sleeping
for
sorrow,

\VS{46}And
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Why
sleep ye?
rise
and pray,
lest
ye enter
into
temptation.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{47}¶
And while
he
yet
spake,
behold a
multitude,
and he
that was
called
Judas,
one of the
twelve, went
before
them,
and drew
near unto
Jesus to
kiss
him.

\VS{48}But
Jesus
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Judas,
betrayest thou
the Son
of man
with a kiss?}}

\VS{49}When they which
were
about
him
saw what would
follow, they
said unto
him,
Lord,
shall we
smite
with the
sword?


\par }{\PP \VS{50}¶
And
one
of
them
smote the
servant of the high
priest,
and cut
off
his
right
ear.

\VS{51}And
Jesus
answered and
said,
{\WJ{Suffer ye
thus
far.}}
And he
touched
his
ear, and
healed
him.

\VS{52}Then
Jesus
said
unto the chief
priests,
and
captains of the
temple,
and the
elders,
which were
come
to
him,
{\WJ{Be ye come out,
as
against
a thief,
with
swords
and
staves?}}

\VS{53}{\WJ{When I
was
daily
with
you
in
the temple,
ye stretched forth
no
hands
against
me:
but
this
is
your
hour,
and
the power
of darkness.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{54}¶
Then took
they
him, and
led
{\ADD{him}},
and
brought
him
into the high
priest’s
house.
And
Peter
followed afar
off.

\VS{55}And when they had
kindled a
fire
in the
midst of the
hall,
and were set down
together,
Peter sat
down
among
them.

\VS{56}But a
certain
maid
beheld
him as he
sat
by the
fire,
and earnestly
looked upon
him, and
said, This
man
was
also
with
him.

\VS{57}And he
denied
him,
saying,
Woman, I
know
him
not.

\VS{58}And
after a little
while
another
saw
him,
and
said,
Thou art
also
of
them.
And
Peter
said,
Man, I
am
not.

\VS{59}And
about the
space of
one
hour
after
another confidently
affirmed,
saying,
Of a
truth
this
{\ADD{fellow}}
also
was
with
him:
for he
is a
Galilæan.

\VS{60}And
Peter
said,
Man, I
know
not
what thou
sayest.
And
immediately, while
he
yet
spake, the
cock
crew.

\VS{61}And the
Lord
turned, and
looked upon
Peter.
And
Peter
remembered the
word of the
Lord,
how he had
said unto
him,
Before the
cock
crow, thou shalt
deny
me
thrice.

\VS{62}And
Peter
went
out, and
wept
bitterly.


\par }{\PP \VS{63}¶
And the
men
that
held
Jesus
mocked
him, and
smote
{\ADD{him}}.

\VS{64}And when they had
blindfolded
him, they
struck
him on the
face,
and
asked
him,
saying,
Prophesy,
who is
it
that
smote
thee?

\VS{65}And
many other
things
blasphemously spake
they
against
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{66}¶
And as soon
as it
was
day, the
elders of the
people
and the chief
priests
and the
scribes came
together,
and
led
him
into
their
council,
saying,

\VS{67}Art
thou the
Christ?
tell
us.
And he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{If I
tell
you,
ye will
not
believe:}}

\VS{68}{\WJ{And
if
I
also
ask
{\ADD{you}},

shall

\VS{70}Then said
they
all,
Art
thou
then the
Son of
God?
And he
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{Ye
say
that
I
am.}}

\VS{71}And they
said,
What
need we
any
further
witness?
for we
ourselves have
heard
of his
own
mouth.




\par }\Chap{23}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And the
whole
multitude of
them
arose, and
led
him
unto
Pilate.

\VS{2}And they
began to
accuse
him,
saying, We
found
this
{\ADD{fellow}}
perverting the
nation,
and
forbidding to
give
tribute to
Cæsar,
saying that he
himself
is
Christ a
King.

\VS{3}And
Pilate
asked
him,
saying,
Art
thou the
King of the
Jews?
And he
answered
him and
said,
{\WJ{Thou
sayest
{\ADD{it}}.}}

\VS{4}Then
said
Pilate
to the chief
priests
and
{\ADD{to}} the
people, I
find
no
fault
in
this
man.

\VS{5}And they were the more
fierce,
saying, He stirreth
up the
people,
teaching
throughout
all
Jewry,
beginning
from
Galilee
to this
place.

\VS{6}When
Pilate
heard of
Galilee, he
asked
whether the
man
were a
Galilæan.

\VS{7}And as soon as he
knew
that he
belonged
unto
Herod’s
jurisdiction, he
sent
him
to
Herod, who
himself
also
was
at
Jerusalem
at
that
time.


\par }{\PP \VS{8}¶ And
when
Herod
saw
Jesus, he
was
exceeding
glad:
for he
was
desirous to
see
him
of a
long
{\ADD{season}},
because he had
heard many
things
of
him;
and he
hoped to have
seen
some
miracle
done
by
him.

\VS{9}Then
he
questioned with
him
in
many
words;
but he
answered
him
nothing.

\VS{10}And the chief
priests
and
scribes
stood
and
vehemently
accused
him.

\VS{11}And
Herod
with
his men of
war
set
him at
nought,
and
mocked
{\ADD{him}}, and
arrayed
him in a
gorgeous
robe, and
sent
him
again to
Pilate.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}¶
And the
same
day
Pilate
and
Herod were
made
friends
together:
for
before they
were
at
enmity
between
themselves.


\par }{\PP \VS{13}¶
And
Pilate, when he had called
together the chief
priests
and the
rulers
and the
people,

\VS{14}Said
unto
them, Ye have
brought
this
man unto
me,
as one that
perverteth the
people:
and,
behold,
I, having
examined
{\ADD{him}}
before
you, have
found
no
fault
in
this
man touching those things
whereof ye
accuse
him:

\VS{15}No, nor
yet
Herod:
for I
sent
you
to
him;
and,
lo,
nothing
worthy of
death
is
done unto
him.

\VS{16}I
will
therefore
chastise
him, and
release
{\ADD{him}}.

\VS{17}(For of
necessity he
must
release
one unto
them
at the
feast.)

\VS{18}And they cried
out all at
once,
saying, Away
with
this
{\ADD{man}},
and
release unto
us
Barabbas:

\VS{19}(Who
for a
certain
sedition
made
in the
city,
and for
murder, was
cast
into
prison.)

\VS{20}Pilate
therefore,
willing to
release
Jesus,
spake again to
them.

\VS{21}But they
cried,
saying,
Crucify
{\ADD{him}},
crucify
him.

\VS{22}And he
said
unto
them the third
time,
Why,
what
evil
hath
he
done? I have
found
no
cause of
death
in
him: I
will
therefore
chastise
him, and
let
{\ADD{him}}
go.

\VS{23}And they were
instant with
loud
voices,
requiring
that
he might be
crucified.
And the
voices of
them
and of the chief
priests
prevailed.

\VS{24}And
Pilate gave
sentence that it should
be as
they
required.

\VS{25}And he
released unto
them him
that
for
sedition
and
murder was
cast
into
prison,
whom they had
desired;
but he
delivered
Jesus to
their
will.

\VS{26}And
as they
led
him
away, they laid hold
upon
one
Simon, a
Cyrenian, coming
out
of the
country,
and on
him they
laid the
cross, that he might
bear
{\ADD{it}}
after
Jesus.


\par }{\PP \VS{27}¶
And there
followed
him a
great
company of
people,
and of
women,
which
also
bewailed
and
lamented
him.

\VS{28}But
Jesus
turning
unto
them
said,
{\WJ{Daughters
of Jerusalem,
weep
not
for
me,
but
weep
for yourselves,
and
for
your
children.}}

\VS{29}{\WJ{For,

which

gave suck.}}

\VS{30}{\WJ{Then
shall they begin
to say
to the mountains,

if
they do

in

\VS{32}And there
were
also
two
other,
malefactors, led
with
him to be put to
death.

\VS{33}And
when they were
come
to the
place,
which is
called
Calvary,
there they
crucified
him,
and the
malefactors,
one
on the right
hand,
and the
other
on the
left.


\par }{\PP \VS{34}¶
Then
said
Jesus,
{\WJ{Father,
forgive
them;
for
they know
not
what
they do.}}
And they
parted
his
raiment, and
cast
lots.

\VS{35}And the
people
stood
beholding.
And the
rulers
also
with
them
derided
{\ADD{him}},
saying, He
saved
others; let him
save
himself,
if
he
be
Christ, the
chosen of
God.

\VS{36}And the
soldiers
also
mocked
him, coming
to
him,
and offering
him
vinegar,

\VS{37}And
saying,
If
thou
be the
king of the
Jews,
save
thyself.

\VS{38}And a
superscription
also
was
written
over
him in
letters of
Greek,
and
Latin,
and
Hebrew,
THIS
IS THE
KING OF THE
JEWS.


\par }{\PP \VS{39}¶
And
one of the
malefactors
which were
hanged
railed on
him,
saying,
If
thou
be
Christ,
save
thyself
and
us.

\VS{40}But the
other
answering
rebuked
him,
saying,
Dost
not
thou
fear
God,
seeing thou
art
in the
same
condemnation?

\VS{41}And
we
indeed
justly;
for we
receive the due
reward of our
deeds:
but this
man hath
done
nothing
amiss.

\VS{42}And he
said unto
Jesus,
Lord,
remember
me
when thou
comest
into
thy
kingdom.

\VS{43}And
Jesus
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Verily
I say
unto thee,
To day
shalt thou be
with
me
in
paradise.}}

\VS{44}And it
was
about the
sixth
hour,
and there
was a
darkness
over
all the
earth
until the
ninth
hour.

\VS{45}And the
sun was
darkened,
and the
veil of the
temple was
rent in the
midst.


\par }{\PP \VS{46}¶
And when
Jesus had
cried with a
loud
voice, he
said,
{\WJ{Father,
into
thy
hands
I commend
my
spirit:}}
and having
said
thus, he gave up the
ghost.

\VS{47}Now when the
centurion
saw
what was
done, he
glorified
God,
saying,
Certainly
this
was a
righteous
man.

\VS{48}And
all the
people
that came
together
to
that
sight,
beholding the things
which were
done,
smote
their
breasts, and
returned.

\VS{49}And
all
his
acquaintance,
and the
women
that
followed
him
from
Galilee,
stood afar
off,
beholding these
things.


\par }{\PP \VS{50}¶
And,
behold,
{\ADD{there was}} a
man
named
Joseph, a
counsellor;
{\ADD{and he was}} a
good
man,
and a
just:

\VS{51}(The
same
had
not
consented to the
counsel
and
deed of
them;)
{\ADD{he was}}
of
Arimathæa, a
city of the
Jews:
who
also
himself
waited
for the
kingdom of
God.

\VS{52}This
{\ADD{man}}
went unto
Pilate, and
begged the
body of
Jesus.

\VS{53}And
he took it
down, and
wrapped
it in
linen,
and
laid
it
in a
sepulchre that was hewn in
stone,
wherein
never
man
before
was
laid.

\VS{54}And that
day
was the
preparation,
and the
sabbath drew
on.

\VS{55}And the
women
also,
which
came with
him
from
Galilee, followed
after, and
beheld the
sepulchre,
and
how
his
body was
laid.

\VS{56}And they
returned, and
prepared
spices
and
ointments;
and
rested
the sabbath
day according
to the
commandment.




\par }\Chap{24}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Now upon the
first
{\ADD{day}} of the
week,
very early in the
morning, they
came
unto the
sepulchre,
bringing the
spices
which they had
prepared,
and
certain
{\ADD{others}}
with
them.

\VS{2}And they
found the
stone rolled
away
from the
sepulchre.

\VS{3}And they entered
in, and
found
not the
body of the
Lord
Jesus.

\VS{4}And it came to
pass,
as
they were much
perplexed
thereabout,
behold,
two
men stood
by
them
in
shining
garments:

\VS{5}And as
they
were
afraid,
and bowed
down
{\ADD{their}}
faces
to the
earth, they
said
unto
them,
Why seek
ye the
living
among the
dead?

\VS{6}He
is
not
here,
but is
risen:
remember
how he
spake unto
you when he
was
yet
in
Galilee,

\VS{7}Saying, The
Son of
man
must be
delivered
into the
hands of
sinful
men,
and be
crucified,
and the
third
day rise
again.

\VS{8}And they
remembered
his
words,

\VS{9}And
returned
from the
sepulchre, and
told
all these
things unto the
eleven,
and to
all the
rest.

\VS{10}It
was
Mary
Magdalene,
and
Joanna,
and
Mary
{\ADD{the mother}} of
James,
and
other
{\ADD{women that were}}
with
them,
which
told these
things
unto the
apostles.

\VS{11}And
their
words
seemed
to
them
as idle
tales,
and they
believed
them
not.

\VS{12}Then
arose
Peter,
and
ran
unto the
sepulchre;
and stooping
down, he
beheld the linen
clothes
laid by
themselves,
and
departed,
wondering
in
himself at that
which was come to
pass.


\par }{\PP \VS{13}¶
And,
behold,
two
of
them
went
that
same
day
to a
village
called
Emmaus,
which
was
from
Jerusalem
{\ADD{about}}
threescore
furlongs.

\VS{14}And
they
talked
together
of
all these
things
which had
happened.

\VS{15}And it came to
pass, that,
while
they
communed
{\ADD{together}}
and
reasoned,
Jesus
himself drew
near, and
went with
them.

\VS{16}But
their
eyes were
holden that they
should
not
know
him.

\VS{17}And he
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{What
manner of communications
{\ADD{are}}
these
that
ye have
one to
another,
as ye walk,
and
are
sad?}}

\VS{18}And the one of
them,
whose
name was
Cleopas,
answering
said
unto
him,
Art
thou
only a
stranger
in
Jerusalem,
and
hast
not
known the things
which are come to
pass
there
in
these
days?

\VS{19}And he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{What things?}}
And they
said unto
him,
Concerning
Jesus of
Nazareth,
which
was a
prophet
mighty
in
deed
and
word
before
God
and
all the
people:

\VS{20}And
how the chief
priests
and
our
rulers
delivered
him
to be
condemned to
death,
and have
crucified
him.

\VS{21}But
we
trusted
that it had
been
he
which
should have
redeemed
Israel:
and
beside
all
this, to
day
is the
third
day
since these
things were
done.

\VS{22}Yea,
and
certain
women also
of our
company
made
us
astonished, which
were
early
at the
sepulchre;

\VS{23}And when they
found
not
his
body, they
came, saying,
that they
had
also
seen a
vision of
angels,
which
said that
he was
alive.

\VS{24}And
certain of them which
were
with
us
went
to the
sepulchre,
and
found
{\ADD{it}}
even
so
as the
women had
said:
but
him they
saw
not.

\VS{25}Then
he
said
unto
them,
{\WJ{O
fools,
and
slow
of heart
to believe
all
that
the prophets
have spoken:}}

\VS{26}{\WJ{Ought
not
Christ
to have suffered
these things,
and
to enter
into
his
glory?}}

\VS{27}And
beginning
at
Moses
and
all the
prophets, he
expounded unto
them
in
all the
scriptures the
things
concerning
himself.

\VS{28}And they drew
nigh
unto the
village,
whither they
went:
and
he made as
though he would have
gone
further.

\VS{29}But they
constrained
him,
saying,
Abide
with
us:
for it
is
toward
evening,
and the
day is far
spent.
And he went
in to
tarry
with
them.

\VS{30}And it came to
pass, as
he sat at
meat
with
them, he
took
bread, and
blessed
{\ADD{it}},
and
brake, and
gave to
them.

\VS{31}And
their
eyes were
opened,
and they
knew
him;
and
he vanished
out
of
their
sight.

\VS{32}And they
said one
to
another,
Did
not
our
heart
burn
within
us,
while he
talked with
us
by the
way,
and
while he
opened to
us the
scriptures?

\VS{33}And they rose
up the
same
hour, and
returned
to
Jerusalem,
and
found the
eleven gathered
together,
and them that
were
with
them,

\VS{34}Saying, The
Lord is
risen
indeed,
and hath
appeared to
Simon.

\VS{35}And
they
told what
things
{\ADD{were done}}
in the
way,
and
how he was
known of
them
in
breaking of
bread.


\par }{\PP \VS{36}¶ And
as
they
thus
spake,
Jesus
himself
stood
in the
midst of
them,
and
saith unto
them,
{\WJ{Peace
{\ADD{be}}
unto you.}}

\VS{37}But they were
terrified
and
affrighted, and supposed
that they had
seen a
spirit.

\VS{38}And he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Why
are
ye troubled?
and
why
do thoughts
arise
in
your
hearts?}}

\VS{39}{\WJ{Behold
my
hands
and
my
feet,
that
it is
I
myself:
handle
me,
and
see;
for
a spirit
hath
not
flesh
and
bones,
as
ye see
me
have.}}

\VS{40}And
when he
had
thus
spoken, he
shewed
them
{\ADD{his}}
hands
and
{\ADD{his}}
feet.

\VS{41}And while
they
yet believed
not
for
joy,
and
wondered, he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Have ye
here
any
meat?}}

\VS{42}And they
gave
him a
piece of a
broiled
fish,
and
of
an
honeycomb.

\VS{43}And he
took
{\ADD{it}}, and did
eat
before
them.

\VS{44}And he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{These
{\ADD{are}}
the words
which
I spake
unto
you,
while I was
yet
with
you,
that
all things
must be
fulfilled,
which
were written
in
the law
of Moses,
and
{\ADD{in}}
the prophets,
and
{\ADD{in}}
the psalms,
concerning
me.}}

\VS{45}Then opened
he
their
understanding,
that they might
understand the
scriptures,

\VS{46}And
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Thus
it is written,
and
thus
it behoved
Christ
to suffer,
and
to rise
from
the dead
the third
day:}}

\VS{47}{\WJ{And
that repentance
and
remission
of sins
should be preached
in
his
name
among
all
nations,
beginning
at
Jerusalem.}}

\VS{48}{\WJ{And
ye
are
witnesses
of these things.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{49}{\WJ{¶
And,
behold,
I
send
the promise
of my
Father
upon
you:
but
tarry
ye
in
the city
of Jerusalem,
until
ye
be endued
with power
from
on high.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{50}¶
And he
led
them
out as far
as
to
Bethany,
and he lifted
up
his
hands, and
blessed
them.

\VS{51}And it came to
pass,
while
he
blessed
them, he was
parted
from
them,
and carried
up
into
heaven.

\VS{52}And
they
worshipped
him, and
returned
to
Jerusalem
with
great
joy:

\VS{53}And
were
continually
in the
temple,
praising
and
blessing
God.
Amen.
