¹ THE beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God; ² as it is written in Isaiah the prophet: Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way. ³ The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make ready the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. ⁴ John was immersing in the wilderness, and preaching the immersion of repentance in order to the remission of sins. ⁵ And all the country of Judea and the inhabitants of Jerusalem went out to him, and were all immersed by him in the river Jordan, con fessing their sins. ⁶ And John was clothed with camel's hair, and had a girdle of leather around his loins, and he ate locusts and wild honey: ⁷ and he preached, saying: There comes after me One mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loose. ⁸ I immerse you in water; but he will immerse you in the Holy Spirit. ⁹ And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed by John in the Jordan. ¹⁰ And immediately on coming up from the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him. ¹¹ And there was a voice from the heavens: Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I delight. ¹² And immediately the Spirit compelled him to go forth into the wilderness. ¹³ And he was there in the wilderness forty days, to be tempted by Satan; and he was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to him. ¹⁴ But after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, ¹⁵ and saying: The time has fully come, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent, and believe the gospel. ¹⁶ And as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew the brother of Simon, throwing a net about in the sea; for they were fishers. ¹⁷ And Jesus said to them: Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men. ¹⁸ And immediately they left their nets, and followed him. ¹⁹ And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship, mending their nets. ²⁰ And he immediately called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him. ²¹ And they went into Capernaum; and immediately, on the sabbath, he entered the synagogue, and taught. ²² And they were astonished at his teaching; for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes. ²³ And there was in their synagogue a man who had an unclean spirit; and he cried out, ²⁴ saying: Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Nazarene? Hast thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. ²⁵ And Jesus rebuked him, saying: Be silent, and come out of him. ²⁶ And the unclean spirit threw him into convulsions, and cried with a loud voice, and came out of him. ²⁷ And all were amazed, so that they questioned one another, saying: What means this? What new teaching is this, that with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him? ²⁸ And his fame immediately went abroad into all the surrounding country of Galilee. ²⁹ And forthwith, having gone out of the synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. ³⁰ Now the mother-in-law of Simon lay sick of a fever. And at once they told him of her. ³¹ And he went to her, and took her by the hand, and raised her up, and the fever left her instantly; and she ministered to them. ³² And at evening, when the sun had gone down, they brought to him all that were sick, and those who were possessed with demons. ³³ And the whole city came together to the door. ³⁴ And he cured many that were sick of various diseases, and cast out many demons, and did not suffer the demons to speak, because they knew him. ³⁵ And very early in the morning, while it was yet dark, he arose and went out, and departed to a desert place, and there prayed. ³⁶ And Simon, and those who were with him, followed after him. ³⁷ And when they had found him, they said to him: All are seeking for thee. ³⁸ And he said to them: Let us go into the neighboring towns, that I may preach there also; for I have come forth for this purpose. ³⁹ And throughout the whole of Galilee he continued to preach in their synagogues, and to cast out demons. ⁴⁰ And there came to him a leper, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying to him: If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. ⁴¹ And Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched forth his hand, and touched him, and said to him: I will; be clean. ⁴² And when he had spoken, the leprosy immediately departed from him, and he was cleansed. ⁴³ And he strictly charged him, and forthwith sent him away, ⁴⁴ and said to him: See that you tell no one; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them. ⁴⁵ But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to publish the matter abroad, so that he was no longer able to enter a city openly, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

And begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for our father; for I say to you, that God is able from these stones to raise up children for Abraham. ⁹ And now also the ax is lying at the root of the trees; therefore, every tree that does not produce good fruit, is cut down and cast into the fire. ¹⁰ And the multitudes asked him, saying: What, then, shall we do? ¹¹ He answered and said to them: He that has two coats, let him give to him that has none; and he that has food, let him do likewise. ¹² And the publicans also came to be immersed, and they said to him: Teacher, what shall we do? ¹³ And he said to them: Exact no more than that which is appointed you. ¹⁴ And soldiers also asked him, saying: And what shall we do?

Are you Elijah? And he said: I am not. Are you the prophet? And he answered: No. ²² They then said to him: Who are you? that we may give an answer to those who sent us; what say you of yourself? ²³ He said: I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord; as said the prophet Isaiah. ²⁴ And those who were sent were of the Pharisees; ²⁵ and they asked him, and said to him: Why, then, do you immerse, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet? ²⁶ John answered them, saying: I immerse in water; but there stands one among you whom you know not. ²⁷ He it is, who, though he comes after me, is now before me; the strap of whose sandal I am not worthy to loose. ²⁸ These things were done in Beth any, beyond the Jordan, where John was immersing. ²⁹ The next day John saw Jesus coming to him, and said: Behold the Lamb of God, that takes away the sin of the world. ³⁰ This is he of whom I said, After me comes a man who is now before me, for he existed before me. ³¹ And I knew him not; but that he might be made manifest to Israel, for this reason I have come immersing in water. ³² And John testified, saying: I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it remained on him. ³³ And I knew him not; but he that sent me to immerse in water, said to me, On whom you shall see the Spirit descending and remaining, this is he that immerses in the Holy Spirit. ³⁴ And I saw, and do testify that this is the Son of God.

He that comes from heaven, is over all; ³² and what he has seen and heard, this he testifies; and no one receives his testimony. ³³ He that has received his testimony has solemnly declared that God is true. ³⁴ For he whom God has sent, speaks the words of God; for God gives not the Spirit by measure to him. ³⁵ The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand. ³⁶ He that believes on the Son has eternal life.

² Annas and Caiaphas being chief priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zachariah, in the wilderness. ³ And he came into all the country about the Jordan, preaching the immersion of repentance in order to the remission of sins;

²³ And John also was immersing in Aenon, near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were immersed;

³⁷ that word, you know, which was published through the whole of Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the immersion that John preached;

²⁴ John having first preached, before his coming, the immersion of repentance to all the people of Israel. ²⁵ And as John was finishing his course, he said: Who do you suppose that I am? I am not he; but behold, there is coming after me one, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to loose.

³ And he said to them: Into what, then, were you immersed? They replied: Into John's immersion. ⁴ And Paul said: John immersed with the immersion of repentance, saying to the people, that they must believe on him who should come after him, that is, on the Christ, Jesus.

¹⁶ And now, why do you delay? Arise, and be immersed, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

⁵ Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judea, and all the region round about the Jordan, ⁶ and were immersed by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.

²⁵ And many multitudes followed him from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judea, and from beyond the Jordan.

²⁸ These things were done in Beth any, beyond the Jordan, where John was immersing.

³⁸ And Peter said to them: Repent, and be immersed, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, in order to the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

⁸ If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. ⁹ If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, so that he will forgive us our sins, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. ¹⁰ If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

⁴ But the same John had his clothing of camel's hair, and a girdle of leather around his loins, and his food was locusts and wild honey.

¹⁴ But John forbade him, saying: I have need to be immersed by thee, and comest thou to me?

¹⁶ John answered them all, saying: I indeed immerse you in water; but there comes One mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to loose; he will immerse you in the Holy Spirit and in fire.

⁶ And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, and said to him: Lord, give thyself no trouble; for I am not worthy that thou shouldst come under my roof. ⁷ For which reason, neither did I count myself worthy to go to thee; but command in a word, and my servant shall be healed.

²⁷ He it is, who, though he comes after me, is now before me; the strap of whose sandal I am not worthy to loose.

²⁸ You yourselves will testify for me, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him. ²⁹ He that has the bride, is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly on account of the voice of the bridegroom. This, my joy, is therefore complete. ³⁰ He must increase, but I must decrease. ³¹ He that comes from above, is over all. He that is from the earth, is from the earth, and speaks from the earth. He that comes from heaven, is over all;

²⁵ And as John was finishing his course, he said: Who do you suppose that I am? I am not he; but behold, there is coming after me one, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to loose.

⁵ for John indeed immersed in water, but you shall be immersed in the Holy Spirit, not many days hence.

⁴ And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

¹⁷ And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, that I will pour out of my Spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.

⁴⁵ And the believers that were of the circumcision, as many as had come with Peter, were astonished, because on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Spirit:

¹⁵ And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, as on us at the beginning. ¹⁶ Then I remembered the word of the Lord, as he said, John immersed in water, but you shall be immersed in the Holy Spirit.

⁴ And Paul said: John immersed with the immersion of repentance, saying to the people, that they must believe on him who should come after him, that is, on the Christ, Jesus. ⁵ And when they heard this, they were immersed into the name of the Lord Jesus. ⁶ And when Paul laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues, and prophesied.

¹³ For by one Spirit we all were immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and we all have been made to drink of one Spirit.

⁵ not by works of righteousness which we had done, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Spirit, ⁶ which he poured out on us richly, through Jesus Christ our Savior;

²³ and came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that the word might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets: He shall be called a Nazarene.

¹³ Then came Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be immersed by him. ¹⁴ But John forbade him, saying: I have need to be immersed by thee, and comest thou to me? ¹⁵ But Jesus answering said to him: Permit it now; for thus it be comes us to perform fully every righteous act. Then he permitted him. ¹⁶ And after Jesus was immersed, he came up immediately from the water; and lo, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and coming upon him. ¹⁷ And lo, a voice from heaven, saying: This is my beloved Son, in whom I delight.

²¹ And it came to pass, while all the people were being immersed, that Jesus also was immersed; and as he was praying, the heaven was opened, ²² and the Holy Spirit descended upon him, in a bodily form, like a dove; and there came a voice from heaven, which said: Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I delight.

¹⁶ And after Jesus was immersed, he came up immediately from the water; and lo, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and coming upon him.

²² and the Holy Spirit descended upon him, in a bodily form, like a dove; and there came a voice from heaven, which said: Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I delight.

⁷ And there was a cloud that overshadowed them; and a voice came from the cloud, This is my beloved Son; hear him.

³⁵ And there came a voice from the cloud, saying: This is my beloved Son; hear him.

²⁰ For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does; and he will show him greater works than these, that you may be astonished. ²¹ For as the Father raises the dead, and makes them alive, so also the Son makes alive whom he will. ²² For the Father judges no one, but has given all judicial authority to the Son; ²³ that all may honor the Son, as they honor the Father. He that honors not the Son, honors not the Father who sent him.

³⁷ And the Father, who sent me, has testified concerning me. You have, neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.

²⁸ Father, glorify thy name. Then there came a voice from heaven: I have glorified it, and will glorify it again. ²⁹ Then the multitude that stood by and heard it, said: It thundered. Others said: An angel spoke to him. ³⁰ Jesus answered and said: This voice came not for my sake, but for yours.

⁴ but declared to be the Son of God with power, according to his holy spiritual nature, by his resurrection from the dead,

¹³ who has delivered us from the authority of darkness, and has translated us into the kingdom of his beloved Son,

¹⁷ For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when there came to him from the magnificent glory a voice, such as this: This is my beloved Son, in whom I delight. ¹⁸ And this voice, which came from heaven, we heard when we were with him in the holy mount;

¹ Then was Jesus led up by the Spirit into the wilderness, to be tempted by the devil. ² And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward hungry. ³ And the tempter came to him and said: If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread. ⁴ But he answered and said: It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of God. ⁵ Then the devil took him into the holy city, and placed him on the pinnacle of the temple, ⁶ and said to him: If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written: He will give his angels charge concerning you; and in their hands shall they take you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone. ⁷ Jesus said to him: It is again written, You shall not put the Lord your God to the proof. ⁸ Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them, ⁹ and said to him: All these things will I give you, if you will fall down and worship me. ¹⁰ Then Jesus said to him: Get behind me, Satan, for it is written: You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve. ¹¹ Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and ministered to him.

¹ And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, ² and was there forty days, to be tempted by the devil. And he ate nothing during those days; and when they were ended, he was afterward hungry. ³ And the devil said to him: If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread. ⁴ And Jesus answered him, and said: It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God. ⁵ And the devil took him up into a high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, in a moment of time. ⁶ And the devil said to him: I will give you all the authority and glory of these, for it is delivered to me; and to whomever I will, I give it. ⁷ If, therefore, you will bow with reverence before me, all shall be yours. ⁸ And Jesus answered and said to him: Get behind me, Satan; it is written, You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve. ⁹ And he brought him to Jerusalem, and placed him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him: If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from this place; ¹⁰ for it is written, He will give his angels charge concerning you, to guard you carefully; ¹¹ and in their hands they shall take you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone. ¹² And Jesus answered and said to him: It is said, You shall not put the Lord your God to the proof. ¹³ And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a time.

⁵³ Do you think that I can not now call upon my Father, and he would cause more than twelve legions of angels to stand by me?

¹⁶ And confessedly great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in flesh, justified in spirit, seen by angels, preached among the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up in glory.

¹⁷ "Wherefore, it behooved him to be made like his brethren in all things, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, in order to make expiation for the sins of the people. ¹⁸ For, inasmuch as he himself has suffered in being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.

¹⁵ For we have not a high priest that can not sympathize with our infirmities; but he was tempted in all things like ourselves, yet without sin.

¹² Now when Jesus heard that John was delivered up; he withdrew into Galilee;

²³ And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and curing every disease, and every kind of sickness among the people.

³⁵ And Jesus went through all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and curing every disease and every infirmity.

² Now when John had heard in the prison of the works of the Christ, he sent two of his disciples,

² and he said to his servants: This is John The Immerser; he has risen from the dead; and for this reason the powers of the spiritual world are active within him.

²⁰ added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison.

¹⁷ And the volume of Isaiah the prophet was given to him: and when he had unrolled the volume, he found the place where it was written: ¹⁸ The Spirit of the Lord is upon me; because he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he has sent me to heal the broken hearted; to proclaim liberty to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind; to set free the oppressed; ¹⁹ to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.

⁴³ But he said to them: I must make known the good news of the kingdom of God to other cities also; for to this end I have been sent. ⁴⁴ And he continued to preach in the synagogues of Galilee.

¹ And it came to pass afterward, that he went through every city and village, preaching, and making known the good news of the kingdom of God; and the twelve were with him;

²² After these things, Jesus and his disciples came into the land of Judea, and he remained there with them, and immersed. ²³ And John also was immersing in Aenon, near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were immersed; ²⁴ for John had not yet been thrown into prison.

²⁵ And now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, will see my face no more.

²³ And when they had appointed him a day, many came to him at his lodging; to whom, from morning till evening;, he earnestly testified, and set forth the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses, and from the prophets.

¹⁷ and having come, he preached peace to you who were far off, and to those who were near:

² and saying: Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

¹⁷ From that time Jesus began to preach and to say: Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

⁷ And as you go, preach, saying: The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

³¹ Which of the two did the will of his father? They said to him, The first. Jesus said to them: Verily I say to you, The publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you. ³² For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you believed him not. But the publicans and the harlots believed him. And you, when you had seen it, after ward felt no regret, that you might believe him.

⁹ and heal those in it who are sick, and say to them: The kingdom of God has come near to you.

¹¹ Even the dust of your city, which cleaves to us, we do wipe off against you; yet know this, that the kingdom of God has come near to you.

⁴⁷ and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

³⁶ Therefore, let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God has made this same Jesus whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ. ³⁷ When they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the other apostles: Brethren, what shall we do? ³⁸ And Peter said to them: Repent, and be immersed, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, in order to the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

²¹ bearing full testimony both to Jews and to Greeks, of the repentance that leads to God, and of the faith that leads to our Lord Jesus Christ.

²⁶ but is now made manifest, and through the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, made known among all nations for the obedience of faith,

⁴ But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

¹⁰ for a dispensation at the fullness of the times, in order that he might bring together for himself all things in the Christ, both those which are in the heavens, and those which are on earth;

²⁵ in meekness instructing those who oppose themselves, if, possibly, God may give them repentance in order to the acknowledgment of the truth, ²⁶ and that they may awake to sobriety out of the snare of the devil, after having been taken captive by him according to his will.

¹⁸ And as he was walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, throwing a net into the sea, for they were fishers. ¹⁹ And he said to them: Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men. ²⁰ And they immediately left their nets and followed him. ²¹ And going on thence, he saw other two brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. ²² And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.

² Now these are the names of the twelve apostles: the first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;

¹⁶ And as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew the brother of Simon, throwing a net about in the sea; for they were fishers. ¹⁷ And Jesus said to them: Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men. ¹⁸ And immediately they left their nets, and followed him. ¹⁹ And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship, mending their nets. ²⁰ And he immediately called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.

¹⁶ And Simon he surnamed Peter;

¹⁸ and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the Son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite,

¹ And it came to pass while the multitude was pressing on him to hear the word of God, and he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret, ² that he saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen had gone out of them, and were washing their nets. ³ And he entered one of the ships, which was Simon s, and requested him to push out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the multitude from the ship. ⁴ And when he had made an end of speaking, he said to Simon: Push out into the deep water, and let down your nets for a draught. ⁵ And Simon answered and said to him: Master, we have toiled all night and have caught nothing; but at thy command, I will let down the net. ⁶ And when they had done this, they inclosed a great number of fishes, and their net began to break; ⁷ and they beckoned to their partners who were in the other ship, to come and help them. And they came and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink. ⁸ And when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at the knees of Jesus, and said: Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man. ⁹ For amazement at the draught of fishes which they had caught had seized upon him and all that were with him; ¹⁰ and in like manner also upon James and John the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon: Fear not; from this time forth you shall catch men. ¹¹ And when they had brought their ships to the land, they left all and followed him.

¹⁴ Simon, whom he also named Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,

⁴⁰ He said to them: Come and see. They went and saw where he abode; and they remained with him that day; for it was about the tenth hour. ⁴¹ One of the two that heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter. ⁴² He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him: We have found the Messiah; (which, when translated, is the Christ;)

⁸ One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to him:

²² Philip came and told Andrew; and then Andrew and Philip told Jesus.

¹³ And when they had come in, they went up into an upper room, in which dwelt Peter and James, and John and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphasus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.

¹⁹ And he said to them: Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men. ²⁰ And they immediately left their nets and followed him.

¹⁰ and in like manner also upon James and John the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon: Fear not; from this time forth you shall catch men.

³⁸ And Peter said to them: Repent, and be immersed, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ, in order to the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. ³⁹ For the promise is to you, and your children, and to all that are afar off, as many as the Lord our God shall call. ⁴⁰ And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying: Save yourselves from this wicked generation. ⁴¹ Then they that gladly received his word were immersed, and on that day there were added to them about three thou sand souls.

²⁷ Then Peter answered and said to him: Behold, we have left all and followed thee; what, then, shall we have? ²⁸ Jesus said to them: Verily I say to you, That, in the restoration, when the Son of man shall sit on his glorious throne, you also who have followed me shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. ²⁹ And every one that has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive a hundred fold, and shall inherit eternal life. But many that are first shall be last; and the last first. ³⁰ :

²⁸ And Peter began to say to him: Behold, we have left all and followed thee. ²⁹ And Jesus answering, said: Verily I say to you, There is no one that has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and for the sake of the gospel, ³⁰ who shall not receive a hundred-fold, now in this time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions; and in the age to come, eternal life. ³¹ But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.

¹¹ And when they had brought their ships to the land, they left all and followed him.

³³ So, then, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has, can not be my disciple.

²⁸ Then Peter said: Behold, we have left all and followed thee. ²⁹ And he said to them: Verily I say to you, There is no one that has left house, or parents, or brothers, or wife, or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God, ³⁰ who shall not receive manifold more in this time, and in the age to come, eternal life.

⁸ Yes, verily, I also count all things to be loss, for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, on account of whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them to be refuse, that I may gain Christ,

²¹ And going on thence, he saw other two brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.

¹⁷ and James the sou of Zebedee, and John the brother of James: and these he surnamed Boanerges, which means, sons of thunder:

³⁷ And he suffered no one to follow him, except Peter and James and John the brother of James.

² And after six days, Jesus took with him Peter and James and John, and led them up alone into a high mountain apart; and he was transfigured before them;

³⁵ And James and John the sons of Zebedee came to him, and said: Teacher, we desire you to do for us whatever we shall ask.

³³ And he took with him Peter and James and John, and began to be in dismay and anguish of soul.

² And he slew with the sword James the brother of John.

²¹ And another of his disciples said to him: Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father. ²² But Jesus said to him: Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead.

³⁷ He that loves father or mother more than me, is not worthy of me: and he that loves son or daughter more than me, is not worthy of me:

²⁹ And Jesus answering, said: Verily I say to you, There is no one that has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and for the sake of the gospel,

²⁶ If any one comes to me, and hates not his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, and his own life also, he can not be my disciple.

¹⁶ So, then, we henceforth know no man according to the flesh; if, indeed, we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we no longer thus know him.

¹³ and, leaving Nazareth, he went and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea, in the borders of Zebulon and Naphtali,

³⁹ And throughout the whole of Galilee he continued to preach in their synagogues, and to cast out demons.

¹ And again he entered Capernaum, after some days; and they heard that he was in the house.

² And when the sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue. And many that heard him were astonished, and said: Whence has this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given to him, that even such mighty deeds are done by his hands?

¹ And he arose and went thence into the borders of Judea, by the other side of the Jordan. And the multitudes again came together to him; and, as his custom was, he taught them again.

¹⁶ And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up; and, as his custom was, he entered the synagogue on the sabbath-day, and stood up to read.

³¹ And he went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. And he was teaching them on the sabbath-days. ³² And they were astonished at his teaching, for his word was with authority. ³³ And there was in the synagogue a man who had the spirit of an unclean demon; and he cried out with a loud voice, ³⁴ saying: Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Nazarene? Hast thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. ³⁵ And Jesus rebuked him, saying: Be silent, and come out of him. And the demon threw him into the midst, and came out of him, and hurt him not. ³⁶ And amazement came upon all, and they spoke one to another, saying: "What teaching is this? for with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out. ³⁷ And his fame went abroad into every place of the country round about.

¹⁵ And thou, Capernaum, who hast been exalted to heaven, shalt be brought down to hades.

¹⁰ And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.

¹⁴ But having passed through from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia; and on the sabbath-day they went into the synagogue, and sat down. ¹⁵ After the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying: Brethren, if you have a word of exhortation for the people, speak. ¹⁶ Then Paul arose, and waving his hand, said: Men of Israel, and you who fear God, give audience. ¹⁷ The God of this people chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they sojourned in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm he brought them out from it. ¹⁸ And for about forty years, he cherished them in the wilderness. ¹⁹ And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land among them by lot. ²⁰ And after that he gave them judges, for about four hundred and fifty years, till Samuel the prophet. ²¹ And afterward they asked for a king, and God gave them Saul the son of Kis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years. ²² And when he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king; to whom he gave this testimony: I have found David the son of Jesse a man after my own heart, who will do all my will. ²³ From the posterity of this man, God, according to his promise, raised up for Israel a Savior, Jesus; ²⁴ John having first preached, before his coming, the immersion of repentance to all the people of Israel. ²⁵ And as John was finishing his course, he said: Who do you suppose that I am? I am not he; but behold, there is coming after me one, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to loose. ²⁶ Brethren, sons of the family of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, to you is the word of this salvation sent. ²⁷ For those who dwell in Jerusalem, and their rulers, be cause they did not know him, nor the words of the prophets, which are read every sabbath-day, have fulfilled them in condemning him. ²⁸ And though they found no cause of death, yet they demanded of Pilate that he should be slain. ²⁹ And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulcher. ³⁰ But God raised him. from the dead. ³¹ And he was seen for many days by those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people. ³² And we preach to you good news concerning the promise made to our fathers, ³³ that God has fulfilled the same to us, their children, by raising up Jesus, as it is written in the second Psalm: Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. ³⁴ But that he raised him from the dead, no more to return to corruption, he has spoken thus: I will give you the sure mercies of David. ³⁵ For which reason he says also in another Psalm: Thou wilt not suffer thy Holy One to see corruption. ³⁶ For David, after serving the purpose of God in his own generation, fell asleep, and was laid with his fathers, and saw corruption. ³⁷ But he whom God raised up did not see corruption. ³⁸ Be it known to you, therefore, brethren, that through this man is preached to you the remission of sins: ³⁹ and by him, every one that believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses. ⁴⁰ Take heed, therefore, lest that which is spoken in the prophets come upon you: ⁴¹ Behold, you despisers, and wonder, and perish. For I work a work in your days, a work which you will not believe, though one fully declare it to you. ⁴² And as they were departing from the synagogue, they were requested to speak these things to them on the next sabbath. ⁴³ Now, after the congregation was dismissed, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who spoke to them, and persuaded them to continue faithful to the grace of God. ⁴⁴ And on the next sabbath-day, almost the whole city met together to hear the word of God. ⁴⁵ But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spoke against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and reviling. ⁴⁶ But Paul and Barnabas, speaking boldly, said: It was necessary that the word of God should be spoken to you first: but since you reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, lo! we turn to tho Gentiles. ⁴⁷ For thus has the Lord given us commandment: I have placed thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be for salvation to the most distant part of the earth. ⁴⁸ When the Gentiles heard this they rejoiced, and glorified the word of the Lord; and as many as were determined to obtain eternal life, believed. ⁴⁹ And the word of the Lord was published throughout the whole of that region. ⁵⁰ But the Jews in cited the devout and influential women, and the first men of the city, and raised a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their borders. ⁵¹ But they shook off the dust from their feet against them, and went to Iconium. ⁵² And the disciples were filled with joy and the Holy Spirit.

² And Paul, according to his custom, went in to them, and, for three sabbath-days, he reasoned with them from the Scriptures,

⁴ But on every sabbath, he reasoned in the synagogue, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.

²⁸ And it came to pass when Jesus had ended these words, that the multitudes were astonished at his teaching: ²⁹ for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.

⁵⁴ And he came into his own country, and taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said: Whence has this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?

¹⁶ Alas for you, blind guides! who say, Whoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, becomes a debtor. ¹⁷ Fools and blind! for which is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifies the gold? ¹⁸ And, Whoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever shall swear by the gift that is on it, becomes a debtor. ¹⁹ Fools and blind! for which is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifies the gift? ²⁰ Therefore, whoever swears by the altar, swears by it, and by all that is on it. ²¹ And whoever swears by the temple, swears by it, and by him that dwells in it. ²² And he that swears by heaven, swears by the throne of God, and by him that sits upon it. ²³ Alas for you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you pay tithes of mint and dill and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law, its justice, its mercy, and its faithfulness. These you ought to have done, and those you ought not to have neglected. ²⁴ Blind guides! who strain out a gnat, but swallow a camel.

³ (for the Pharisees and all the Jews eat not, unless they wash their hands carefully, because they hold the tradition of the elders: ⁴ and when they come from the market, they do not eat, unless they immerse themselves. And there are many other things, which they have received to hold, as the immersion of cups and pitchers and brazen vessels and beds:) ⁵ then the Pharisees and the scribes asked him: Why do your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands? ⁶ He answered and said to them: "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. ⁷ In vain do they worship me, teaching precepts, the commandments of men. ⁸ For, neglecting the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men, the immersion of pitchers and cups; and many other things like these you do. ⁹ And he said to them: Well do you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your own tradition. ¹⁰ For Moses said: Honor your father and your mother; and, He that curses father or mother shall surely be put to death. ¹¹ But you say: If a man shall say to his father or mother, What ever of mine might benefit you, is Corban, (which means, a gift,) ¹² you no longer suffer him to do any thing for his father or mother, ¹³ making the word of God of no effect by your tradition, which you have delivered; and many things like these you do.

³² And they were astonished at his teaching, for his word was with authority.

¹⁵ for I will give you a mouth, and wisdom, which all your opposers shall not be able to gainsay or withstand.

⁴⁶ The attendants answered: Never did man speak like this man.

¹⁰ And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit with which he spoke.

²¹ And all that heard him were astonished, and said: Is not this he who destroyed in Jerusalem those that call on this name, and who has come hither for this purpose, that he might carry them bound to the chief priests? ²² But Saul increased the more in strength, and confuted the Jews that dwelt in Damascus, proving that this is the Christ.

² but we have renounced the secret works of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor adulterating the word of God; but, by the manifestation of the truth, commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

¹² For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, and pierces even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. ¹³ And there is no creature which is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked, and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give an ac count.

⁴³ When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he goes through dry places seeking rest, and finds none.

³⁴ And he cured many that were sick of various diseases, and cast out many demons, and did not suffer the demons to speak, because they knew him.

² And when he had come out of the ship, immediately there met him from the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

²⁵ For a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet;

²⁵ When Jesus saw that a multitude came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, and said to it: Dumb and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him, and enter into him no more.

²⁹ And behold, they cried out, saying: What have we to do with thee, Jesus, Son of God? Hast thou come hither to torment us before the time?

⁷ and crying out with a loud voice, he said: What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of God Most High? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.

³⁴ saying: Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Nazarene? Hast thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.

²⁸ When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and said with a loud voice: "What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of God Most High? I beseech thee, torment me not.

³⁷ And the whole multitude of the neighboring country of the Gadarenes besought him to depart from them; for they were seized with great fear. And he entered the ship and returned.

¹⁹ And he said to them: What things? They said to him: The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and in word before God and all the people;

²⁷ because thou wilt not leave my soul in hades, nor suffer thy Holy One to see corruption.

¹⁴ But you rejected the Holy and Just One, and demanded that a murderer should be given to you;

²⁷ For, in truth, against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou didst anoint, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, did meet together,

⁵ For we have found this man a pest and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes.

¹⁹ You believe that there is one God; you do well: the demons also believe, and tremble.

⁷ And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia, write: These things says he that is holy, he that is true, he that has the key of David, he that opens and no man shuts, and shuts and no man opens;

¹¹ And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried out, saying: Thou art the Son of God. ¹² And he strictly charged them, that they should not make him known.

³⁵ And Jesus rebuked him, saying: Be silent, and come out of him. And the demon threw him into the midst, and came out of him, and hurt him not.

⁴¹ Demons also came out of many, crying out and saying: Thou art the Christ, the Son of God. And he rebuked them, and did not permit them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.

¹⁷ She followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying: These men are the servants of the most High God, who show us the way of salvation.

²⁰ And they brought him to him. And when he saw him, the spirit immediately threw him into convulsions; and he fell on the ground, and rolled himself, foaming.

²⁶ And the spirit cried out, and threw him into strong convulsions, and came out of him; and he was like one dead, so that many said: He is dead.

³⁹ and, behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out, and it throws him into convulsions, and causes him to foam, and after depriving him of strength, hardly departs from him.

⁴² And while he was coming, the demon cast him to the ground, and threw him into convulsions; but Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and restored the child to health, and gave him back to his father.

²² but when one stronger than he comes upon him and overcomes him, he takes away all his armor in which he trusted, and divides his spoils.

³³ And after the demon had been cast out, the dumb man spoke. And the multitudes were astonished, and said: Never was it seen thus in Israel.

²² Then was brought to him a demoniac, blind and dumb: and he cured him, so that the blind and dumb man both spoke and saw. ²³ And all the people were amazed, and said: Is not this the son of David?

³¹ so that the multitudes were astonished, when they saw the dumb speaking, the maimed whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel.

³⁷ And they were amazed beyond measure, and said: He Las done all things well: he makes the deaf hear and the dumb speak.

²⁴ And his disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus, answering again, said to them: Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God!

³² And they were in the road going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them; and they were amazed, and as they followed, they were afraid. And again taking the twelve aside, he began to tell them what was about to befall him.

³⁶ And amazement came upon all, and they spoke one to another, saying: "What teaching is this? for with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out.

¹ And he called his twelve disciples to him, and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure dis eases:

¹⁷ And the seventy returned with joy, and said: Lord, even the demons are subject to us through thy name. ¹⁸ And he said to them: I saw Satan, like lightning from heaven, falling. ¹⁹ Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and authority over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you. ²⁰ However, rejoice not in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.

²⁴ And his fame went abroad into all Syria. And they brought to him all that were sick, those who were afflicted with various diseases and pains, and those who were possessed with demons, and lunatics, and paralytics; and he cured them.

³¹ But they went out and spread his fame abroad in all that land.

⁴⁵ But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to publish the matter abroad, so that he was no longer able to enter a city openly, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

¹⁷ And the volume of Isaiah the prophet was given to him: and when he had unrolled the volume, he found the place where it was written:

³⁷ And his fame went abroad into every place of the country round about.

¹⁴ And when Jesus had come into Peter's house, he saw his mother-in-law lying, and ill of a fever. ¹⁵ And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose and ministered to him.

²¹ And they went into Capernaum; and immediately, on the sabbath, he entered the synagogue, and taught.

²³ And there was in their synagogue a man who had an unclean spirit; and he cried out,

³⁸ And he arose and went out of the synagogue into the house of Simon. And Simon's mother-in-law was confined with a violent fever: and they besought him in her behalf. ³⁹ And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever, and it left her: and she arose immediately, and ministered to them.

⁵⁸ And Jesus said to him: The foxes have dens, and the birds of the air have roosts, but the Son of man has not where to lay his head.

²³ and besought him earnestly, saying: My little daughter is at the point of death; come, lay thy hands on her, that she may be saved, and she will live.

³ Therefore his sisters sent to him, saying: Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

⁵ Have we not the right to lead about a sister wife, as the other apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?

¹⁴ Is any one among you sick? let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil, in the name of the Lord. ¹⁵ And the prayer of faith shall save the sick; and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

⁵⁵ Many women that had followed Jesus from Galilee, and had ministered to him, were there, looking on from a distance.

⁴¹ And he took the child by the hand, and said to her: Talitha kumi; which is, when translated, Maiden, (I say to you,) arise.

⁴¹ who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered to him; and many other women, who had come up with him to Jerusalem.

² and also certain women that had been cured of evil spirits and diseases; Mary, called Magdalene, out of whom had gone seven demons, ³ and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered to him from their means.

⁴¹ And he gave her his hand, and raised her up. And when he had called in the saints and the widows, he presented her alive.

¹⁶ When the evening had come, they brought to him many that were possessed with demons: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and cured all that were sick;

² And they watched him, whether he would cure him on the sabbath-day, that they might accuse him.

⁴⁰ And when the sun had gone down, all that had any sick with various diseases, brought them to him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and cured them.

⁵ And all the country of Judea and the inhabitants of Jerusalem went out to him, and were all immersed by him in the river Jordan, con fessing their sins.

⁴⁴ And on the next sabbath-day, almost the whole city met together to hear the word of God.

²⁵ And Jesus rebuked him, saying: Be silent, and come out of him.

¹² And he strictly charged them, that they should not make him known.

¹⁶ And it came to pass, that as we were going to the house of prayer, there met us a certain maid-servant that had a spirit of Python, who brought much gain to her masters, by giving responses. ¹⁷ She followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying: These men are the servants of the most High God, who show us the way of salvation. ¹⁸ And this she continued to do for many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit: I command you, in the name of Jesus Christ, to come out of her. And it came out that very hour.

²³ And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into the mountain apart to pray. And when evening came, he was there alone.

⁴⁶ And when he had sent them away, he went into the mountain to pray. ⁴⁷ And when evening came, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone upon the land. ⁴⁸ And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was against them. And about the fourth watch of the night, he came to them, walking on the sea, and intended to pass by them.

⁴² And when it was day, he went out and departed into a desert place; and the multitudes sought for him, and came to him and endeavored to detain him, that he should not go away from them. ⁴³ But he said to them: I must make known the good news of the kingdom of God to other cities also; for to this end I have been sent.

¹⁶ And he withdrew to the deserts and prayed.

¹² And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into the mountain to pray; and he spent the night in prayer to God.

³⁹ And after he had gone out, he went, according to custom, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples followed him. ⁴⁰ And when he came to the place, he said to them: Pray, that you enter not into temptation. ⁴¹ And he withdrew from them about a stone's throw, and kneeled down, and prayed, ⁴² saying: Father, if thou art willing that this cup should pass from me yet, not my will, but thine be done. ⁴³ And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, to strengthen him. ⁴⁴ And he was in agony, and prayed more earnestly. And his sweat was like great drops of blood falling to the ground. ⁴⁵ And he arose from prayer, and came to his disciples, and found them asleep for sorrow. ⁴⁶ And he said to them: Why do you sleep?
