Book 40 Matthew
Оглавление40:001:001 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
40:001:002 Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren;
40:001:003 And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;
40:001:004 And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon;
40:001:005 And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;
40:001:006 And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;
40:001:007 And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;
40:001:008 And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;
40:001:009 And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;
40:001:010 And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;
40:001:011 And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:
40:001:012 And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
40:001:013 And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;
40:001:014 And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;
40:001:015 And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;
40:001:016 And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
40:001:017 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.
40:001:018 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.
40:001:019 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
40:001:020 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.
40:001:021 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
40:001:022 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
40:001:023 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.
40:001:024 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
40:001:025 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
40:002:001 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,
40:002:002 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.
40:002:003 When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
40:002:004 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.
40:002:005 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,
40:002:006 And thou Bethlehem, 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.
40:002:007 Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.
40:002:008 And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.
40:002:009 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.
40:002:010 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
40:002:011 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.
40:002:012 And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.
40:002:013 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.
40:002:014 When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:
40:002:015 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.
40:002:016 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.
40:002:017 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,
40:002:018 In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.
40:002:019 But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
40:002:020 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.
40:002:021 And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
40:002:022 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:
40:002:023 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.
40:003:001 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,
40:003:002 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
40:003:003 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.
40:003:004 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.
40:003:005 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan,
40:003:006 And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.
40:003:007 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?
40:003:008 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:
40:003:009 And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
40:003:010 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.
40:003:011 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 with fire:
40:003:012 Whose fan 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.
40:003:013 Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.
40:003:014 But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?
40:003:015 And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.
40:003:016 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:
40:003:017 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
40:004:001 Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
40:004:002 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.
40:004:003 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.
40:004:004 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
40:004:005 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,
40:004:006 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 their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
40:004:007 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
40:004:008 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;
40:004:009 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
40:004:010 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
40:004:011 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.
40:004:012 Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee;
40:004:013 And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:
40:004:014 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,
40:004:015 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;
40:004:016 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.
40:004:017 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
40:004:018 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.
40:004:019 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.
40:004:020 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.
40:004:021 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.
40:004:022 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.
40:004:023 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.
40:004:024 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.
40:004:025 And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.
40:005:001 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
40:005:002 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
40:005:003 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
40:005:004 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
40:005:005 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
40:005:006 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
40:005:007 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
40:005:008 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
40:005:009 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
40:005:010 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
40:005:011 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
40:005:012 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
40:005:013 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.
40:005:014 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
40:005:015 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
40:005:016 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
40:005:017 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
40:005:018 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
40:005:019 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
40:005:020 For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
40:005:021 Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:
40:005:022 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
40:005:023 Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;
40:005:024 Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
40:005:025 Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
40:005:026 Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
40:005:027 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
40:005:028 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
40:005:029 And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
40:005:030 And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
40:005:031 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
40:005:032 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
40:005:033 Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
40:005:034 But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:
40:005:035 Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
40:005:036 Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
40:005:037 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.
40:005:038 Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
40:005:039 But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
40:005:040 And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.
40:005:041 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
40:005:042 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
40:005:043 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
40:005:044 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
40:005:045 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
40:005:046 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
40:005:047 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
40:005:048 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
40:006:001 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
40:006:002 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
40:006:003 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
40:006:004 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
40:006:005 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
40:006:006 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
40:006:007 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
40:006:008 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
40:006:009 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
40:006:010 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
40:006:011 Give us this day our daily bread.
40:006:012 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
40:006:013 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
40:006:014 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
40:006:015 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
40:006:016 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
40:006:017 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;
40:006:018 That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.
40:006:019 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
40:006:020 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
40:006:021 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
40:006:022 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
40:006:023 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
40:006:024 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
40:006:025 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
40:006:026 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
40:006:027 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?
40:006:028 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
40:006:029 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
40:006:030 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
40:006:031 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
40:006:032 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
40:006:033 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
40:006:034 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
40:007:001 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
40:007:002 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
40:007:003 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
40:007:004 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
40:007:005 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
40:007:006 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
40:007:007 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
40:007:008 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
40:007:009 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
40:007:010 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
40:007:011 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
40:007:012 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
40:007:013 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
40:007:014 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
40:007:015 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
40:007:016 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
40:007:017 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
40:007:018 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
40:007:019 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
40:007:020 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
40:007:021 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
40:007:022 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
40:007:023 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
40:007:024 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
40:007:025 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
40:007:026 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
40:007:027 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
40:007:028 And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:
40:007:029 For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
40:008:001 When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.
40:008:002 And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
40:008:003 And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
40:008:004 And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
40:008:005 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,
40:008:006 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.
40:008:007 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
40:008:008 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.
40:008:009 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
40:008:010 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
40:008:011 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.
40:008:012 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
40:008:013 And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.
40:008:014 And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.
40:008:015 And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.
40:008:016 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick:
40:008:017 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
40:008:018 Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he gave commandment to depart unto the other side.
40:008:019 And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.
40:008:020 And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.
40:008:021 And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
40:008:022 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.
40:008:023 And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him.
40:008:024 And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.
40:008:025 And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.
40:008:026 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.
40:008:027 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!
40:008:028 And when he was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way.
40:008:029 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?
40:008:030 And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding.
40:008:031 So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.
40:008:032 And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.
40:008:033 And they that kept them fled, and went their ways into the city, and told every thing, and what was befallen to the possessed of the devils.
40:008:034 And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart out of their coasts.
40:009:001 And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city.
40:009:002 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.
40:009:003 And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.
40:009:004 And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?
40:009:005 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?
40:009:006 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.
40:009:007 And he arose, and departed to his house.
40:009:008 But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.
40:009:009 And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.
40:009:010 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.
40:009:011 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?
40:009:012 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.
40:009:013 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
40:009:014 Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?
40:009:015 And Jesus said unto them, 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.
40:009:016 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.
40:009:017 Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.
40:009:018 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.
