\par }\ChapOne{1}{\PP \VerseOne{1}The
book of the
generation of
Jesus
Christ, the
son of
David, the
son of
Abraham.

\VS{2}Abraham
begat

and

and

and

and

\VS{6}And
Jesse
begat

and

her
{\ADD{that had been the wife}} of

\VS{7}And

\VS{10}And

and
Amon
begat

\VS{11}And
Josias
begat

time
they were carried away
to

\VS{12}And
after they were brought

\VS{17}So
all the
generations
from
Abraham
to

{\ADD{are}}
fourteen
generations;
and
from
David
until the carrying away
into
Babylon
{\ADD{are}}
fourteen
generations;
and
from the carrying away
into
Babylon
unto
Christ
{\ADD{are}}
fourteen
generations.


\par }{\PP \VS{18}¶
Now the
birth of
Jesus
Christ
was on this
wise: When
as
his
mother
Mary was
espoused to
Joseph,
before
they came
together, she was
found
with
child
of
the
Holy
Ghost.

\VS{19}Then
Joseph
her
husband,
being a
just
{\ADD{man}},
and
not
willing to
make
her a publick
example, was
minded to
put
her
away
privily.

\VS{20}But
while
he thought
on these
things,
behold, the
angel of the
Lord
appeared unto
him
in a
dream,
saying,
Joseph, thou
son of
David,
fear
not to take unto
thee
Mary
thy
wife: for
that
which is
conceived
in
her
is
of
the
Holy
Ghost.

\VS{21}And she shall bring
forth a
son,
and thou shalt
call
his
name
JESUS:
for
he shall
save
his
people
from
their
sins.

\VS{22}Now
all
this was
done, that
it might be
fulfilled
which was
spoken
of the
Lord
by the
prophet,
saying,

\VS{23}Behold, a
virgin shall
be
with
child,
and shall bring
forth a
son,
and they shall
call
his
name
Emmanuel,
which being
interpreted
is,
God
with
us.

\VS{24}Then
Joseph being
raised
from
sleep
did
as the
angel of the
Lord had
bidden
him,
and took unto
him
his
wife:

\VS{25}And
knew
her
not
till she had brought
forth
her
firstborn
son:
and he
called
his
name
JESUS.




\par }\Chap{2}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Now
when
Jesus was
born
in
Bethlehem of
Judaea
in the
days of
Herod the
king,
behold, there
came wise
men
from the
east
to
Jerusalem,

\VS{2}Saying,
Where
is
he that is
born
King of the
Jews?
for we have
seen
his
star
in the
east,
and are
come to
worship
him.

\VS{3}When
Herod the
king had
heard
{\ADD{these things}}, he was
troubled,
and
all
Jerusalem
with
him.

\VS{4}And
when he had
gathered
all the chief
priests
and
scribes of the
people
together, he
demanded
of
them
where
Christ should be
born.

\VS{5}And they
said unto
him,
In
Bethlehem of
Judaea:
for
thus it is
written
by the
prophet,

\VS{6}And
thou
Bethlehem,
{\ADD{in}} the
land of
Juda,
art
not the
least
among the
princes of
Juda:
for out
of
thee shall
come a
Governor,
that shall
rule
my
people
Israel.

\VS{7}Then
Herod, when he
had
privily
called the wise
men,
enquired
of
them
diligently what
time the
star
appeared.

\VS{8}And he
sent
them
to
Bethlehem, and
said,
Go and
search
diligently
for the young
child;
and
when ye have
found
{\ADD{him}},
bring
me word
again,
that
I may
come and
worship
him
also.

\VS{9}When they had
heard the
king, they
departed;
and,
lo, the
star,
which they
saw
in the
east, went
before
them,
till it
came and
stood
over
where the young
child
was.

\VS{10}When they
saw the
star, they
rejoiced with
exceeding
great
joy.


\par }{\PP \VS{11}¶
And when they were
come
into the
house, they
saw the young
child
with
Mary
his
mother,
and fell
down, and
worshipped
him: and
when they had
opened
their
treasures, they
presented unto
him
gifts;
gold,
and
frankincense,
and
myrrh.

\VS{12}And being warned of
God
in a
dream that they
should
not
return
to
Herod, they
departed
into their
own
country
another
way.

\VS{13}And
when
they were
departed,
behold, the
angel of the
Lord
appeareth to
Joseph
in a
dream,
saying,
Arise, and
take the young
child
and
his
mother,
and
flee
into
Egypt,
and be
thou
there
until I
bring
thee
word:
for
Herod
will
seek the young
child to
destroy
him.

\VS{14}When he
arose, he
took the young
child
and
his
mother by
night,
and
departed
into
Egypt:

\VS{15}And
was
there
until the
death of
Herod:
that it might be
fulfilled which was
spoken
of the
Lord
by the
prophet,
saying, Out
of
Egypt have I
called
my
son.


\par }{\PP \VS{16}¶
Then
Herod, when he
saw
that he was
mocked
of the wise
men,
was
exceeding
wroth,
and sent
forth, and
slew
all the
children that
were
in
Bethlehem,
and
in
all the
coasts
thereof,
from two years
old
and
under, according
to the
time
which he had diligently
enquired
of the wise
men.

\VS{17}Then was
fulfilled that which was
spoken
by
Jeremy the
prophet,
saying,

\VS{18}In
Rama was
there a
voice
heard,
lamentation,
and
weeping,
and
great
mourning,
Rachel
weeping
{\ADD{for}}
her
children,
and
would
not be
comforted,
because they
are
not.


\par }{\PP \VS{19}¶ But
when
Herod was
dead,
behold, an
angel of the
Lord
appeareth
in a
dream to
Joseph
in
Egypt,

\VS{20}Saying,
Arise, and
take the young
child
and
his
mother,
and
go
into the
land of
Israel:
for they are
dead
which
sought the young
child’s
life.

\VS{21}And he
arose, and
took the young
child
and
his
mother,
and
came
into the
land of
Israel.

\VS{22}But when he
heard
that
Archelaus did
reign
in
Judaea in the room
of
his
father
Herod, he was
afraid to
go
thither:
notwithstanding, being warned of
God
in a
dream, he turned
aside
into the
parts of
Galilee:

\VS{23}And he
came and
dwelt
in a
city
called
Nazareth:
that it might be
fulfilled
which was
spoken
by the
prophets, He shall be
called a
Nazarene.




\par }\Chap{3}{\PP \VerseOne{1}In
those
days
came
John the
Baptist,
preaching
in the
wilderness of
Judaea,

\VS{2}And
saying, Repent
ye:
for the
kingdom of
heaven is at
hand.

\VS{3}For
this
is he
that was
spoken
of by the
prophet
Esaias,
saying, The
voice of one
crying
in the
wilderness, Prepare
ye the
way of the
Lord,
make
his
paths
straight.

\VS{4}And the
same
John
had
his
raiment
of
camel’s
hair,
and a
leathern
girdle
about
his
loins;
and
his
meat
was
locusts
and
wild
honey.

\VS{5}Then went
out
to
him
Jerusalem,
and
all
Judaea,
and
all the region round
about
Jordan,

\VS{6}And were
baptized
of
him
in
Jordan,
confessing
their
sins.


\par }{\PP \VS{7}¶
But when he
saw
many of the
Pharisees
and
Sadducees
come
to
his
baptism, he
said unto
them, O
generation of
vipers,
who hath
warned
you to
flee
from the
wrath to
come?

\VS{8}Bring
forth
therefore
fruits
meet for
repentance:

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

\VS{11}I
indeed
baptize
you
with
water
unto
repentance:
but he
that
cometh
after
me
is mightier
than
I,
whose
shoes I
am
not
worthy to
bear:
he shall
baptize
you
with the
Holy
Ghost,
and
{\ADD{with}}
fire:

\VS{12}Whose
fan
{\ADD{is}}
in
his
hand,
and he will throughly
purge
his
floor,
and
gather
his
wheat
into the
garner;
but he will burn
up the
chaff with
unquenchable
fire.


\par }{\PP \VS{13}¶
Then
cometh
Jesus
from
Galilee
to
Jordan
unto
John, to be
baptized
of
him.

\VS{14}But
John
forbad
him,
saying,
I
have
need to be
baptized
of
thee,
and
comest
thou
to
me?

\VS{15}And
Jesus
answering
said
unto
him,
{\WJ{Suffer
{\ADD{
it to be so}}
now:
for
thus
it becometh
us
to fulfil
all
righteousness.}}
Then he
suffered
him.

\VS{16}And
Jesus, when he was
baptized, went
up
straightway
out of the
water:
and,
lo, the
heavens were
opened unto
him,
and he
saw the
Spirit of
God
descending
like a
dove,
and
lighting
upon
him:

\VS{17}And
lo a
voice
from
heaven,
saying,
This
is
my
beloved
Son,
in
whom I am well
pleased.




\par }\Chap{4}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Then
was
Jesus led
up
of the
Spirit
into the
wilderness to be
tempted
of the
devil.

\VS{2}And when he had
fasted
forty
days
and
forty
nights, he
was
afterward an
hungred.

\VS{3}And when the
tempter
came to
him, he
said,
If thou
be the
Son of
God,
command
that
these
stones be
made
bread.

\VS{4}But he
answered and
said,
{\WJ{It is written,
Man
shall
not
live
by
bread
alone,
but
by
every
word
that proceedeth
out
of the mouth
of God.}}

\VS{5}Then the
devil
taketh
him
up
into the
holy
city,
and
setteth
him
on a
pinnacle of the
temple,

\VS{6}And
saith unto
him,
If thou
be the
Son of
God,
cast
thyself
down:
for it is
written, He shall
give
his
angels
charge
concerning
thee:
and
in
{\ADD{their}}
hands they shall
bear
thee
up, lest at any
time thou
dash
thy
foot
against a
stone.

\VS{7}Jesus
said unto
him,
{\WJ{It is written
again,
Thou shalt
not
tempt
the Lord
thy
God.}}

\VS{8}Again, the
devil
taketh
him
up
into an
exceeding
high
mountain,
and
sheweth
him
all the
kingdoms of the
world,
and the
glory of
them;

\VS{9}And
saith unto
him,
All these
things will I
give
thee,
if thou wilt fall
down and
worship
me.

\VS{10}Then
saith
Jesus unto
him,
{\WJ{Get thee hence,
Satan:
for
it is written,
Thou shalt worship
the Lord
thy
God,
and
him
only
shalt thou serve.}}

\VS{11}Then the
devil
leaveth
him,
and,
behold,
angels
came
and
ministered unto
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{12}¶
Now when
Jesus had
heard
that
John was cast into
prison, he
departed
into
Galilee;

\VS{13}And
leaving
Nazareth, he
came and
dwelt
in
Capernaum,
which is upon the sea
coast,
in the
borders of
Zabulon
and
Nephthalim:

\VS{14}That it might be
fulfilled
which was
spoken
by
Esaias the
prophet,
saying,

\VS{15}The
land of
Zabulon,
and the
land of
Nephthalim,
{\ADD{by}} the
way of the
sea,
beyond
Jordan,
Galilee of the
Gentiles;

\VS{16}The
people
which
sat
in
darkness
saw
great
light;
and to
them
which
sat
in the
region
and
shadow of
death
light is sprung
up.


\par }{\PP \VS{17}¶
From that
time
Jesus
began to
preach,
and to
say,
{\WJ{Repent:
for
the kingdom
of heaven
is at hand.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{18}¶
And
Jesus,
walking
by the
sea of
Galilee,
saw
two
brethren,
Simon
called
Peter,
and
Andrew
his
brother,
casting a
net
into the
sea:
for they
were
fishers.

\VS{19}And he
saith unto
them,
{\WJ{Follow
me,
and
I will make
you
fishers
of men.}}

\VS{20}And
they
straightway
left
{\ADD{their}}
nets, and
followed
him.

\VS{21}And going
on from
thence, he
saw
other
two
brethren,
James
{\ADD{the son}} of
Zebedee,
and
John
his
brother,
in a
ship
with
Zebedee
their
father,
mending
their
nets;
and he
called
them.

\VS{22}And they
immediately
left the
ship
and
their
father, and
followed
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{23}¶
And
Jesus went
about
all
Galilee,
teaching
in
their
synagogues,
and
preaching the
gospel of the
kingdom,
and
healing all manner
of
sickness
and all manner
of
disease
among the
people.

\VS{24}And
his
fame
went
throughout
all
Syria:
and they
brought unto
him
all sick
people that were
taken with
divers
diseases
and
torments,
and those which were possessed with
devils,
and those which were
lunatick,
and those that had the
palsy;
and he
healed
them.

\VS{25}And there
followed
him great
multitudes of
people
from
Galilee,
and
{\ADD{from}}
Decapolis,
and
{\ADD{from}}
Jerusalem,
and
{\ADD{from}}
Judaea,
and
{\ADD{from}}
beyond
Jordan.




\par }\Chap{5}{\PP \VerseOne{1}And
seeing the
multitudes, he went
up
into a
mountain:
and
when
he was
set,
his
disciples came
unto
him:

\VS{2}And he
opened
his
mouth, and
taught
them,
saying,

\VS{3}{\WJ{Blessed
{\ADD{are}}
the poor
in spirit:
for
theirs
is
the kingdom
of heaven.}}

\VS{4}{\WJ{Blessed
{\ADD{are}}
they that mourn:
for
they
shall be comforted.}}

\VS{5}{\WJ{Blessed
{\ADD{are}}
the meek:
for
they
shall inherit
the earth.}}

\VS{6}{\WJ{Blessed
{\ADD{are}}
they which do hunger
and
thirst
after righteousness:
for
they
shall be filled.}}

\VS{7}{\WJ{Blessed
{\ADD{are}}
the merciful:
for
they
shall obtain mercy.}}

\VS{8}{\WJ{Blessed
{\ADD{are}}
the pure
in heart:
for
they
shall see
God.}}

\VS{9}{\WJ{Blessed
{\ADD{are}}
the peacemakers:
for
they
shall be called
the children
of God.}}

\VS{10}{\WJ{Blessed
{\ADD{are}}
they which are persecuted
for
righteousness’
sake:
for
theirs
is
the kingdom
of heaven.}}

\VS{11}{\WJ{Blessed
are ye,
when
{\ADD{men}}
shall revile
you,
and
persecute
{\ADD{you}},
and
shall say
all manner of
evil
against
you
falsely,
for
my
sake.}}

\VS{12}{\WJ{Rejoice,
and
be exceeding glad:
for
great
{\ADD{is}}
your
reward
in
heaven:
for
so
persecuted they
the prophets
which were
before
you.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{13}{\WJ{¶
Ye
are
the salt
of the earth:
but
if
the salt
have lost his savour,
wherewith
shall it be salted?
it is
thenceforth
good
for
nothing,
but
to be cast
out,
and
to be trodden under foot
of
men.}}

\VS{14}{\WJ{Ye
are
the light
of the world.
A city
that is set
on

\VS{15}{\WJ{Neither do men
light
a candle,

put
it
under

\VS{16}{\WJ{Let
your
light
so
shine
before
men,
that
they may see
your
good
works,
and
glorify
your

which is
in

Think
not
that
I am come
to destroy
the law,
or

I am
not
come
to destroy,

therefore
shall break

shall do

teach

I say
unto you,
That
except

the kingdom

city.

\VS{2}And,
behold, they
brought to
him a man sick of the
palsy,
lying
on a
bed:
and
Jesus
seeing
their
faith
said unto the sick of the
palsy;
{\WJ{Son,
be of good cheer;
thy
sins
be forgiven
thee.}}

\VS{3}And,
behold,
certain of the
scribes
said
within
themselves,
This
{\ADD{man}}
blasphemeth.

\VS{4}And
Jesus
knowing
their
thoughts
said,
{\WJ{Wherefore
think
ye
evil
in
your
hearts?}}

\VS{5}{\WJ{For
whether
is
easier,
to say,
{\ADD{Thy}}
sins
be forgiven
thee;
or
to say,
Arise,
and
walk?}}

\VS{6}{\WJ{But
that
ye may know
that
the Son
of man
hath
power
on
earth
to forgive
sins,}} (then saith
he to the sick of the
palsy,)
{\WJ{Arise,
take up
thy
bed,
and
go
unto
thine
house.}}

\VS{7}And he
arose, and
departed
to
his
house.

\VS{8}But
when the
multitudes
saw
{\ADD{it}}, they
marvelled,
and
glorified
God, which had
given
such
power unto
men.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}¶
And
as
Jesus passed
forth from
thence, he
saw a
man,
named
Matthew,
sitting
at the receipt of
custom:
and he
saith unto
him,
{\WJ{Follow
me.}}
And he arose,
and
followed
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{10}¶
And it came to
pass,
as
Jesus sat at
meat
in the
house,
behold,
many
publicans
and
sinners came
and sat down
with
him
and
his
disciples.

\VS{11}And
when the
Pharisees
saw
{\ADD{it}}, they
said
unto
his
disciples,
Why
eateth
your
Master
with
publicans
and
sinners?

\VS{12}But
when
Jesus
heard
{\ADD{that}}, he
said unto
them,
{\WJ{They that be whole
need
not
a physician,
but
they that are sick.}}

\VS{13}{\WJ{But
go ye and
learn
what
{\ADD{that}}
meaneth,
I will have
mercy,
and
not
sacrifice:
for
I am
not
come
to call
the righteous,
but
sinners
to
repentance.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{14}¶
Then came
to
him the
disciples of
John,
saying,
Why
do
we
and the
Pharisees
fast
oft,
but
thy
disciples
fast
not?

\VS{15}And
Jesus
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Can
the children
of the bridechamber
mourn,
as
long as
the bridegroom
is
with
them?
but
the days
will come,
when
the bridegroom
shall be taken
from
them,
and
then
shall they fast.}}

\VS{16}{\WJ{No man
putteth
a piece
of new
cloth
unto
an
old
garment,
for
that which is put in to fill
it
up
taketh
from
the garment,
and
the rent
is made
worse.}}

\VS{17}{\WJ{Neither
do men put
new

into

else
the bottles
break,
and
the wine
runneth out,
and

into

and
both
are preserved.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{18}¶
While
he
spake these
things unto
them,
behold, there
came a certain
ruler,
and
worshipped
him,
saying,
My
daughter
is even
now
dead:
but come
and
lay
thy
hand
upon
her,
and she shall
live.

\VS{19}And
Jesus arose,
and
followed
him,
and
{\ADD{so did}}
his
disciples.


\par }{\PP \VS{20}¶
And,
behold, a
woman, which was diseased with an issue of
blood
twelve
years,
came
behind
{\ADD{him}}, and
touched the
hem
of
his
garment:

\VS{21}For she
said
within
herself,
If I
may
but
touch
his
garment, I shall be
whole.

\VS{22}But
Jesus turned him
about,
and when he
saw
her, he
said,
{\WJ{Daughter,
be of good comfort;
thy
faith
hath made
thee
whole.}}
And the
woman was made
whole
from
that
hour.

\VS{23}And
when
Jesus
came
into the
ruler’s
house,
and
saw the
minstrels
and the
people making a
noise,

\VS{24}He
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Give place:
for
the maid
is
not
dead,
but
sleepeth.}}
And they
laughed
him to
scorn.

\VS{25}But
when the
people were put
forth, he went in,
and
took
her by the
hand,
and the
maid
arose.

\VS{26}And the
fame
hereof went
abroad
into
all
that
land.


\par }{\PP \VS{27}¶
And
when
Jesus
departed
thence,
two blind
men
followed
him,
crying,
and
saying,
{\ADD{Thou}}
Son of
David, have mercy
on
us.

\VS{28}And when he was
come
into the
house, the blind
men
came to
him:
and
Jesus
saith unto
them,
{\WJ{Believe ye
that
I am able
to do
this?}} They
said unto
him,
Yea,
Lord.

\VS{29}Then touched
he
their
eyes,
saying,
{\WJ{According to
your
faith
be it
unto you.}}

\VS{30}And
their
eyes were
opened;
and
Jesus straitly
charged
them,
saying,
{\WJ{See
{\ADD{that}}
no man
know
{\ADD{it}}.}}

\VS{31}But
they, when they were
departed, spread
abroad
his
fame
in
all
that
country.


\par }{\PP \VS{32}¶
As
they went
out,
behold, they
brought to
him a
dumb
man possessed with a
devil.

\VS{33}And
when the
devil was cast
out, the
dumb
spake:
and the
multitudes
marvelled,
saying, It
was
never
so
seen
in
Israel.

\VS{34}But the
Pharisees
said, He casteth
out
devils
through the
prince of the
devils.

\VS{35}And
Jesus went
about
all the
cities
and
villages,
teaching
in
their
synagogues,
and
preaching the
gospel of the
kingdom,
and
healing
every
sickness
and
every
disease
among the
people.


\par }{\PP \VS{36}¶
But when he
saw the
multitudes, he was moved with
compassion
on
them,
because
they
fainted,
and
were scattered
abroad,
as
sheep
having
no
shepherd.

\VS{37}Then saith
he
unto
his
disciples,
{\WJ{The harvest
truly
{\ADD{is}}
plenteous,
but
the labourers
{\ADD{are}}
few;}}

\VS{38}{\WJ{Pray ye
therefore

of the harvest,

into

unto

gave
them
power
{\ADD{against}}
unclean

to
cast

out,
and to
heal all manner
of
sickness
and all manner
of
disease.

\VS{2}Now the
names of
the
twelve
apostles
are
these; The

Simon, who is
called
Peter,
and
Andrew
his

James
{\ADD{the son}} of

was
Thaddaeus;

\VS{4}Simon the
Canaanite,
and
Judas
Iscariot,
who
also
betrayed
him.

\VS{5}These

forth, and
commanded
them,

charged
them
that they

fulfilled which was
spoken
by
Esaias the

saying,

whom I have
chosen;
my
beloved,
in
whom
my

pleased: I will
put
my

upon

shew
judgment to the
Gentiles.

\VS{19}He
shall
not
strive,
nor
cry;
neither
shall any

hear
his
voice
in the

\VS{20}A
bruised

break,
and
smoking
flax shall

forth

trust.

Then was
brought unto
him one possessed with a

and he
healed
him, insomuch
that the
blind

both
spake
and
saw.

\VS{23}And
all the

amazed,
and
said,

by

Jesus
knew
their

said unto

{\WJ{Every

Another

{\WJ{The kingdom

which
a woman
took,

spoken
by the

utter things which have been kept

before

unto the other
side,
while he
sent the
multitudes
away.

\VS{23}And when he had
sent the
multitudes
away, he went
up
into a
mountain
apart to
pray: and
when the
evening was
come, he
was
there
alone.

\VS{24}But the
ship
was
now in the
midst of the
sea,
tossed
with
waves:
for the
wind
was
contrary.

\VS{25}And in the
fourth
watch of the
night
Jesus
went
unto
them,
walking
on the
sea.

\VS{26}And
when the
disciples
saw
him
walking
on the
sea, they were
troubled,
saying, It
is a
spirit;
and they cried
out
for
fear.

\VS{27}But
straightway
Jesus
spake unto
them,
saying,
{\WJ{Be of good cheer;
it is
I;
be
not
afraid.}}

\VS{28}And
Peter
answered
him and
said,
Lord,
if it
be
thou,
bid
me
come
unto
thee
on the
water.

\VS{29}And he
said,
{\WJ{Come.}} And
when
Peter was come
down
out of the
ship, he
walked
on the
water, to
go
to
Jesus.

\VS{30}But when he
saw the
wind
boisterous, he was
afraid;
and
beginning to
sink, he
cried,
saying,
Lord,
save
me.

\VS{31}And
immediately
Jesus stretched
forth
{\ADD{his}}
hand, and
caught
him,
and
said unto
him,
{\WJ{O thou of little faith,
wherefore
didst thou doubt?}}

\VS{32}And when
they were
come
into the
ship, the
wind
ceased.

\VS{33}Then they that
were
in the
ship
came and
worshipped
him,
saying, Of a
truth thou
art the
Son of
God.


\par }{\PP \VS{34}¶
And when they were gone
over, they
came
into the
land of
Gennesaret.

\VS{35}And
when the
men of
that
place had knowledge
of
him, they sent
out
into
all
that country round
about,
and
brought unto
him
all that
were
diseased;

\VS{36}And
besought
him
that they
might
only
touch the
hem of
his
garment:
and as many
as
touched were made perfectly
whole.




\par }\Chap{15}{\PP \VerseOne{1}Then
came to
Jesus

for they
wash
not

\VS{3}But he
answered and
said unto
them,
{\WJ{Why

\VS{12}Then
came
his

said unto

thou
that the

offended, after they
heard this

said,
{\WJ{Every

answered
Peter and
said unto

Jesus
said,
{\WJ{Are

Then

departed
into the

and
Sidon.

\VS{22}And,
behold, a

Canaan
came
out of
the

cried unto
him,
saying, Have
mercy on
me, O
Lord,
{\ADD{thou}}
Son of
David;
my

is
grievously vexed with a

\VS{23}But he
answered
her
not a

And
his

came and
besought
him,
saying,
Send

for she
crieth
after

\VS{24}But he
answered and
said,
{\WJ{I am

said,

eat
of the
crumbs which
fall
from
their

\VS{28}Then
Jesus
answered and
said unto
her,
{\WJ{O

And
her

\VS{29}And
Jesus
departed from
thence, and
came
nigh unto the

Galilee;
and went
up
into a
mountain, and sat
down
there.

\VS{30}And
great
multitudes came
unto
him,
having
with
them
{\ADD{those that were}}
lame,
blind,
dumb,
maimed,
and
many
others,
and
cast

down
at

healed

wondered, when they
saw the

walk,
and the

and they
glorified the

Then

called

\VS{33}And
his

say unto
him,
Whence should we

in the

as to
fill so

\VS{34}And
Jesus
saith unto
them,
{\WJ{How many

And they
said,
Seven,
and a

\VS{35}And he
commanded the

down
on the

\VS{36}And he
took
the

brake
{\ADD{them}},
and
gave
to

\VS{37}And they
did
all
eat,
and were
filled:
and they took
up of the
broken

left
seven

full.

\VS{38}And they that did
eat
were four

men,
beside

\VS{39}And he sent
away the

took

and
said unto

among

saith unto

Moses
said,

his

marry

\VS{25}Now there

also,

unto the

died
also.

\VS{28}Therefore
in the

whose

be of the

her.

\VS{29}Jesus

{\WJ{Ye do err,
not
knowing

neither

went a little
further, and
fell
on

{\WJ{Friend,
wherefore
art thou come?}}
Then came they, and
laid
hands
on
Jesus,
and
took
him.

\VS{51}And,
behold,
one of them which
were
with
Jesus stretched
out
{\ADD{his}}
hand, and
drew
his
sword,
and
struck a
servant of the high
priest’s, and smote
off
his
ear.

\VS{52}Then
said
Jesus unto
him,
{\WJ{Put up again
thy
sword
into
his
place:
for
all
they that take
the sword
shall perish
with
the sword.}}

\VS{53}{\WJ{Thinkest thou
that
I cannot
now
pray
to
my
Father,
and
he shall presently give
me
more
than
twelve
legions
of angels?}}

\VS{54}{\WJ{But how
then
shall
the scriptures
be fulfilled,
that
thus
it must
be?}}

\VS{55}In that
same
hour
said
Jesus to the
multitudes,
{\WJ{Are ye come out
as
against
a thief
with
swords
and
staves
for to take
me?
I sat
daily
with
you
teaching
in
the temple,
and
ye laid
no
hold on
me.}}

\VS{56}{\WJ{But
all
this
was done,
that
the scriptures
of the prophets
might be fulfilled.}}
Then
all the
disciples
forsook
him, and
fled.


\par }{\PP \VS{57}¶
And they that had laid hold
on
Jesus
led
{\ADD{him}}
away
to
Caiaphas the high
priest,
where the
scribes
and the
elders were
assembled.

\VS{58}But
Peter
followed
him
afar
off
unto the high
priest’s
palace,
and
went
in, and
sat
with the
servants, to
see the
end.

\VS{59}Now the chief
priests,
and
elders,
and
all the
council,
sought false
witness
against
Jesus,
to
put
him to
death;

\VS{60}But
found
none: yea,
though
many false
witnesses
came,
{\ADD{yet}} found
they
none. At the
last
came
two false
witnesses,

\VS{61}And
said,
This
{\ADD{fellow}}
said, I am
able to
destroy the
temple of
God,
and to
build
it
in
three
days.

\VS{62}And the high
priest
arose, and
said unto
him, Answerest
thou
nothing?
what
{\ADD{is it which}}
these witness
against
thee?

\VS{63}But
Jesus held his
peace.
And the high
priest
answered and
said unto
him, I
adjure
thee
by
the
living
God,
that thou
tell
us
whether
thou
be the
Christ, the
Son of
God.

\VS{64}Jesus
saith unto
him,
{\WJ{Thou
hast said:
nevertheless
I say
unto you,
Hereafter
shall ye see
the Son
of man
sitting
on
the right hand
of power,
and
coming
in
the clouds
of heaven.}}

\VS{65}Then the high
priest
rent
his
clothes,
saying, He hath spoken
blasphemy;
what
further
need have
we of
witnesses?
behold,
now ye have
heard
his
blasphemy.

\VS{66}What
think
ye? They
answered
and
said, He
is guilty
of
death.

\VS{67}Then did they
spit
in
his
face,
and
buffeted
him;
and
others smote him with the palms of their
hands,

\VS{68}Saying,
Prophesy unto
us, thou
Christ,
Who is
he that
smote
thee?


\par }{\PP \VS{69}¶ Now
Peter
sat
without
in the
palace:
and
a
damsel came
unto
him,
saying,
Thou
also
wast
with
Jesus of
Galilee.

\VS{70}But he
denied
before
{\ADD{them}}
all,
saying, I
know
not
what thou
sayest.

\VS{71}And
when
he was gone
out
into the
porch,
another
{\ADD{maid}}
saw
him,
and
said unto them that were
there,
This
{\ADD{fellow}}
was
also
with
Jesus of
Nazareth.

\VS{72}And
again he
denied
with an
oath, I
do
not
know the
man.

\VS{73}And
after a
while came
unto
{\ADD{him}} they that stood
by, and
said to
Peter,
Surely
thou
also
art
{\ADD{one}}
of
them;
for
thy
speech
bewrayeth
thee.

\VS{74}Then began
he to
curse
and to
swear,
{\ADD{saying}}, I
know
not the
man.
And
immediately the
cock
crew.

\VS{75}And
Peter
remembered the
word of
Jesus, which
said unto
him,
Before the
cock
crow, thou shalt
deny
me
thrice.
And he
went
out, and
wept
bitterly.




\par }\Chap{27}{\PP \VerseOne{1}When the
morning was
come,
all the chief
priests
and
elders of the
people
took
counsel
against
Jesus
to
put
him to
death:

\VS{2}And when they had
bound
him, they
led
{\ADD{him}}
away,
and
delivered
him to
Pontius
Pilate the
governor.


\par }{\PP \VS{3}¶
Then
Judas, which had
betrayed
him, when he
saw
that he was
condemned, repented
himself, and brought
again the
thirty pieces of
silver to the chief
priests
and
elders,

\VS{4}Saying, I have
sinned in that I have
betrayed the
innocent
blood.
And
they
said,
What
{\ADD{is that}}
to
us?
see
thou
{\ADD{to that}}.

\VS{5}And he cast
down the pieces of
silver
in the
temple, and
departed,
and
went and hanged
himself.

\VS{6}And the chief
priests
took the silver
pieces, and
said, It
is
not
lawful for to
put
them
into the
treasury,
because it
is the
price of
blood.

\VS{7}And they
took
counsel, and
bought
with
them the
potter’s
field, to
bury
strangers
in.

\VS{8}Wherefore
that
field was
called, The
field of
blood,
unto this
day.

\VS{9}Then was
fulfilled that which was
spoken
by
Jeremy the
prophet,
saying,
And they
took
the
thirty pieces of
silver, the
price of him that was
valued,
whom they of the
children
of
Israel did
value;

\VS{10}And
gave
them
for
the
potter’s
field,
as the
Lord
appointed
me.

\VS{11}And
Jesus
stood
before the
governor:
and the
governor
asked
him,
saying,
Art
thou the
King of the
Jews?
And
Jesus
said unto
him,
{\WJ{Thou
sayest.}}

\VS{12}And
when
he was
accused
of the chief
priests
and
elders, he
answered
nothing.

\VS{13}Then
said
Pilate unto
him, Hearest
thou
not how many
things they witness
against
thee?

\VS{14}And he
answered
him
to
never
a
word; insomuch
that the
governor
marvelled
greatly.

\VS{15}Now
at
{\ADD{that}}
feast the
governor was
wont to
release
unto the
people a
prisoner,
whom they
would.

\VS{16}And they
had
then a
notable
prisoner,
called
Barabbas.

\VS{17}Therefore
when
they were gathered
together,
Pilate
said unto
them,
Whom will
ye that I
release unto
you?
Barabbas,
or
Jesus which is
called
Christ?

\VS{18}For he
knew
that
for
envy they had
delivered
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{19}¶
When
he was set
down
on the judgment
seat,
his
wife
sent
unto
him,
saying,
Have
thou nothing to
do
with
that just
man:
for I have
suffered many
things this
day
in a
dream because
of
him.

\VS{20}But the chief
priests
and
elders
persuaded the
multitude
that they should
ask
Barabbas,
and
destroy
Jesus.

\VS{21}The
governor
answered
and
said unto
them,
Whether
of the
twain will
ye that I
release unto
you?
They
said,
Barabbas.

\VS{22}Pilate
saith unto
them,
What shall I
do
then with
Jesus which is
called
Christ?
{\ADD{They}}
all say
unto
him, Let him be
crucified.

\VS{23}And the
governor
said,
Why,
what
evil hath he
done?
But
they cried
out the
more,
saying, Let him be
crucified.


\par }{\PP \VS{24}¶
When
Pilate
saw
that he could
prevail
nothing,
but
{\ADD{that}}
rather a
tumult was
made, he
took
water, and
washed
{\ADD{his}}
hands
before the
multitude,
saying, I
am
innocent
of the
blood of
this just
person:
see
ye
{\ADD{to it}}.

\VS{25}Then
answered
all the
people, and
said,
His
blood
{\ADD{be}}
on
us,
and
on
our
children.


\par }{\PP \VS{26}¶
Then released
he
Barabbas unto
them:
and when he had
scourged
Jesus, he
delivered
{\ADD{him}}
to be
crucified.

\VS{27}Then the
soldiers of the
governor
took
Jesus
into the common
hall, and
gathered
unto
him the
whole
band
{\ADD{of soldiers}}.

\VS{28}And they
stripped
him, and put
on
him a
scarlet
robe.


\par }{\PP \VS{29}¶
And when they had
platted a
crown
of
thorns, they
put
{\ADD{it}}
upon
his
head,
and a
reed
in
his right
hand:
and they bowed the
knee
before
him, and
mocked
him,
saying,
Hail,
King of the
Jews!

\VS{30}And they
spit
upon
him, and
took the
reed,
and
smote
him
on the
head.

\VS{31}And
after that they had
mocked
him, they
took the
robe
off from
him,
and
put his
own
raiment
on
him,
and
led
him
away
to
crucify
{\ADD{him}}.

\VS{32}And as they came
out, they
found a
man of
Cyrene,
Simon by
name:
him they
compelled
to
bear
his
cross.

\VS{33}And when they were
come
unto a
place
called
Golgotha,
that
is to
say, a
place of a
skull,


\par }{\PP \VS{34}¶ They
gave
him
vinegar to
drink
mingled
with
gall:
and when he had
tasted
{\ADD{thereof}}, he
would
not
drink.

\VS{35}And they
crucified
him, and
parted
his
garments,
casting
lots:
that it might be
fulfilled which was
spoken
by the
prophet, They
parted
my
garments among
them,
and
upon
my
vesture did they
cast
lots.

\VS{36}And sitting
down they
watched
him
there;

\VS{37}And set
up
over
his
head
his
accusation
written,
THIS
IS
JESUS THE
KING OF THE
JEWS.

\VS{38}Then were
there
two
thieves crucified
with
him,
one
on the right
hand,
and
another
on the
left.


\par }{\PP \VS{39}¶
And they that passed
by
reviled
him,
wagging
their
heads,

\VS{40}And
saying, Thou that
destroyest the
temple,
and
buildest
{\ADD{it}}
in
three
days,
save
thyself.
If thou
be the
Son of
God, come
down
from the
cross.

\VS{41}Likewise
also the chief
priests
mocking
{\ADD{him}},
with the
scribes
and
elders,
said,

\VS{42}He
saved
others;
himself
he
cannot
save.
If he
be the
King of
Israel, let
him
now come
down
from the
cross,
and we will
believe
him.

\VS{43}He
trusted
in
God; let him
deliver
him
now,
if he will
have
him:
for he
said, I
am the
Son of
God.

\VS{44}The
thieves
also, which were crucified
with
him,
cast the
same in
his
teeth.

\VS{45}Now
from the
sixth
hour there
was
darkness
over
all the
land
unto the
ninth
hour.

\VS{46}And
about
the
ninth
hour
Jesus cried
with
a
loud
voice,
saying,
{\WJ{Eli,
Eli,
lama
sabachthani?}}
that is to
say,
My
God,
my
God,
why hast thou
forsaken
me?

\VS{47}Some of them that
stood
there, when they
heard
{\ADD{that}},
said,
This
{\ADD{man}} calleth
for
Elias.

\VS{48}And
straightway
one
of
them
ran,
and
took a
spunge,
and
filled
{\ADD{it}} with
vinegar,
and
put
{\ADD{it}} on a
reed, and
gave
him to
drink.

\VS{49}The
rest
said, Let
be, let us
see
whether
Elias will
come to
save
him.


\par }{\PP \VS{50}¶
Jesus, when he had
cried
again
with
a
loud
voice, yielded
up the
ghost.

\VS{51}And,
behold, the
veil of the
temple was
rent
in
twain
from the
top
to the
bottom;
and the
earth did
quake,
and the
rocks
rent;

\VS{52}And the
graves were
opened;
and
many
bodies of the
saints which
slept
arose,

\VS{53}And came
out
of the
graves
after
his
resurrection, and
went
into
the
holy
city,
and
appeared unto
many.

\VS{54}Now
when the
centurion,
and they that
were
with
him,
watching
Jesus,
saw the
earthquake,
and those things that were
done, they
feared
greatly,
saying,
Truly
this
was the
Son of
God.

\VS{55}And
many
women
were
there
beholding
afar
off,
which
followed
Jesus
from
Galilee,
ministering unto
him:

\VS{56}Among
which
was
Mary
Magdalene,
and
Mary the
mother of
James
and
Joses,
and the
mother of
Zebedee’s
children.

\VS{57}When the
even was
come, there
came a
rich
man
of
Arimathæa,
named
Joseph,
who
also
himself
was
Jesus’
disciple:

\VS{58}He went
to
Pilate, and
begged the
body of
Jesus.
Then
Pilate
commanded the
body to be
delivered.

\VS{59}And
when
Joseph had
taken the
body, he
wrapped
it
in a
clean linen
cloth,

\VS{60}And
laid
it
in his
own
new
tomb,
which he had hewn
out
in the
rock:
and he
rolled
a
great
stone to the
door of the
sepulchre, and
departed.

\VS{61}And
there
was
Mary
Magdalene,
and the
other
Mary,
sitting over
against the
sepulchre.


\par }{\PP \VS{62}¶
Now the next
day,
that
followed the day of the
preparation, the chief
priests
and
Pharisees came
together
unto
Pilate,

\VS{63}Saying,
Sir, we
remember
that
that
deceiver
said, while he
was
yet
alive,
After
three
days I will rise
again.

\VS{64}Command
therefore
that the
sepulchre be made
sure
until
the
third
day,
lest
his
disciples
come by
night, and
steal him
away,
and
say unto the
people, He is
risen
from the
dead:
so the
last
error shall
be worse
than the
first.

\VS{65}Pilate
said unto
them, Ye
have a
watch: go your
way,
make
{\ADD{it}} as
sure
as ye
can.

\VS{66}So
they
went, and
made the
sepulchre
sure,
sealing the
stone, and
setting a
watch.




\par }\Chap{28}{\PP \VerseOne{1}In the
end of the
sabbath, as it began to
dawn
toward the
first
{\ADD{day}} of the
week,
came
Mary
Magdalene
and the
other
Mary to
see the
sepulchre.

\VS{2}And,
behold, there
was
a
great
earthquake:
for the
angel of the
Lord
descended
from
heaven, and
came and rolled
back the
stone
from the
door,
and
sat
upon
it.

\VS{3}His
countenance
was
like
lightning,
and
his
raiment
white
as
snow:

\VS{4}And
for
fear of
him the
keepers did
shake,
and
became
as
dead
{\ADD{men}}.

\VS{5}And the
angel
answered and
said unto the
women,
Fear
not
ye:
for I
know
that ye
seek
Jesus, which was
crucified.

\VS{6}He
is
not
here:
for he is
risen,
as he
said.
Come,
see the
place
where the
Lord
lay.

\VS{7}And
go
quickly, and
tell
his
disciples
that he is
risen
from the
dead;
and,
behold, he goeth
before
you
into
Galilee;
there shall ye
see
him:
lo, I have
told
you.

\VS{8}And they
departed
quickly
from the
sepulchre
with
fear
and
great
joy; and did
run to
bring
his
disciples
word.


\par }{\PP \VS{9}¶
And
as they
went to
tell
his
disciples,
behold,
Jesus
met
them,
saying,
{\WJ{All hail.}}
And they
came and
held
him by the
feet,
and
worshipped
him.

\VS{10}Then
said
Jesus unto
them,
{\WJ{Be
not
afraid:
go
tell
my
brethren
that
they go
into
Galilee,
and there
shall they see
me.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{11}¶
Now
when
they were
going,
behold,
some of the
watch
came
into the
city, and
shewed unto the chief
priests
all the things that were
done.

\VS{12}And when they were
assembled
with the
elders,
and had
taken
counsel, they
gave
large
money unto the
soldiers,

\VS{13}Saying, Say
ye,
His
disciples
came by
night, and
stole
him
{\ADD{away}}
while
we
slept.

\VS{14}And
if
this
come
to the
governor’s
ears,
we will
persuade
him,
and
secure
you.

\VS{15}So
they
took the
money, and
did
as they were
taught:
and
this
saying is commonly
reported
among the
Jews
until this
day.


\par }{\PP \VS{16}¶
Then
the
eleven
disciples went
away
into
Galilee,
into a
mountain
where
Jesus had
appointed
them.

\VS{17}And when they
saw
him, they
worshipped
him:
but
some
doubted.

\VS{18}And
Jesus
came and
spake unto
them,
saying,
{\WJ{All
power
is given
unto me
in
heaven
and
in
earth.}}


\par }{\PP \VS{19}{\WJ{¶
