²⁵ Whence, also, He is able to save to the uttermost those coming to God through Him, always being alive to be pleading for their sake."

³ And saying is the Elohim, "Become light!" And it is becoming light.

⁹ And saying is the Elohim, "Flow together shall the water from under the heavens to one place, and appear shall the dry land." And coming is it to be so. And flowing together is the water under the heavens to one place, and appearing is the dry land.

¹⁰ and Elisha sends unto him a messenger, saying, `Go, and you have washed seven times in Jordan, and your flesh does turn back to you--and be you clean.

¹⁴ And he goes down and dips in Jordan seven times, according to the word of the man of Elohim, and his flesh does turn back as the flesh of a little youth, and is clean.

⁹ For He spoke, and it came to be; He enjoined, and it stood firm."

²⁵ And I have sprinkled over you clean water, And you have been clean; From all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols, I do cleanse you." ²⁶ And I have given to you a new heart, And a new spirit I give in your midst, And I have turned aside the heart of stone out of your flesh, And I have given to you a heart of flesh." ²⁷ And My Spirit I give in your midst, And I have done this, so that in My statutes you walk, And My judgments you keep, and have done them."

²⁹ And I have saved you from all your uncleannesses, And I have called unto the corn, and multiplied it, And I have put no famine upon you."

⁴ I will heal their backsliding; I will love them willingly, for My anger is reversed from him."

²⁹ Then He touches their eyes, saying, "According to your faith let it be with you." ³⁰ And opened were their eyes. And Jesus mutters to them, saying, "See! Let no one know!"

³⁹ And standing by over her, He rebukes the fever, and the fever leaves her. Now instantly, rising, she waited on them."

⁵⁴ Yet He, casting all outside and holding her hand, shouts, saying, "Girl, be roused!" ⁵⁵ And back turns her spirit, and she rose instantly. And He prescribes that she be given something to eat."

⁵⁰ Jesus is saying to him, "Go. Your son is living.And the man believes the word which Jesus said to him, and went." ⁵¹ Now as he is already descending, his slaves meet him, and they report, saying that his boy is living." ⁵² He, then, ascertained from them the hour in which he was better. And they said, then, to him that "Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever leaves him." ⁵³ The father knew, then, that it was in that hour in which Jesus said to him, "Your son is living.And he believes, he and his whole house."

² In case a human comes to have in the skin of his flesh a nodule or a scurf or a blotch, and it comes in the skin of his flesh as the contagion of leprous disease, then the matter will be brought before Aaron the priest, or before one of his sons the priests.

² This shall come to be the law of the leprous man in the day of his cleansing; when the matter is brought before the priest, ³ then the priest will go forth outside the camp. When the priest examines, and behold, the contagion of leprous disease is healed in the leprous man, ⁴ then the priest will instruct that they take for the one cleansing himself two living clean birds and cedar wood, double-dipped crimson yarn and hyssop. ⁵ The priest will instruct that they slay one bird in an earthenware vessel over live water. ⁶ Then he shall take the living bird, it and the cedar wood, the double-dipped crimson yarn and the hyssop, and he will dip them and the living bird into the blood of the bird slain over the live water. ⁷ Then he will spatter it seven times on the one cleansing himself from the leprous disease, and pronounce him clean. He will send the living bird free over the surface of the field. ⁸ The one cleansing himself will rinse his garments and shave off all his hair and wash in water; then he will be clean. Afterward he may come into the camp, yet he will dwell outside his tent seven days. ⁹ Then it will come to be on the seventh day that he shall shave off all his hair from his head, his beard and his eyebrows, even all his hair shall he shave off; when he has rinsed his garments and bathed his flesh in water, then he will be clean. ¹⁰ On the eighth day he shall take two flawless he-lambs, and one flawless ewe lamb, a year old, three tenths of an ephah of flour, an approach present mingled with oil, and one log of oil. ¹¹ The priest pronouncing the man clean will cause them and the one cleansing himself to stand before Yahweh at the opening of the tent of appointment. ¹² Then the priest will take one he-lamb and bring it near as a guilt offering with the log of oil and wave them as a wave offering before Yahweh. ¹³ He will slay the he-lamb in the place where he slays the sin offering and the ascent offering in the holy place, for like the sin offering, the guilt offering, it is for the priest; it is a holy of holies. ¹⁴ The priest will take some of the blood of the guilt offering, and the priest will put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one cleansing himself, on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot. ¹⁵ Then the priest will take some of the log of oil and pour it on the priest's left palm. ¹⁶ The priest will dip his right finger into the oil which is on his left palm and spatter some of the oil with his finger seven times before Yahweh. ¹⁷ Some of the oil which is left on his palm the priest shall put on the lobe of the right ear of the one cleansing himself, on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot, over the blood of the guilt offering. ¹⁸ And the rest of the oil which is on the palm of the priest shall he put on the head of the one cleansing himself. Thus the priest will make a propitiatory shelter over him before Yahweh. ¹⁹ Then the priest will make the sin offering, make a propitiatory shelter over the one cleansing himself from his uncleanness, and afterward slay the ascent offering. ²⁰ The priest will bring up the ascent offering and the approach present on the altar before Yahweh. When the priest makes a propitiatory shelter over him, then he will be clean. ²¹ If he is poor and his hand cannot afford it then he will take one he-lamb as a guilt offering for a wave offering to make a propitiatory shelter over him, one tenth of an ephah of flour mingled with oil for an approach present, a log of oil, ²² and two turtledoves or two dove squabs whichever his hand can afford. One will come to be a sin offering and the other an ascent offering. ²³ He will bring them on the eighth day, for his cleansing, to the priest at the opening of the tent of appointment before Yahweh. ²⁴ And the priest will take the he-lamb of the guilt offering and the log of oil, and the priest will wave them as a wave offering before Yahweh. ²⁵ Then he will slay the he-lamb of the guilt offering; the priest will take some of the blood of the guilt offering and put it on the lobe of the right ear of the one cleansing himself, on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot. ²⁶ Some of the oil the priest shall pour on the priest's left palm; ²⁷ and the priest will spatter with his right finger some of the oil which is on his left palm seven times before Yahweh. ²⁸ Then the priest will put some of the oil which is on his palm on the lobe of the right ear of the one cleansing himself, on the thumb of his right hand and on the big toe of his right foot on the same place as the blood of the guilt offering. ²⁹ And the rest of the oil which is on the palm of the priest he shall put on the head of the one cleansing himself to make a propitiatory shelter over him before Yahweh. ³⁰ He will offer one of the turtledoves or of the dove squabs from whichever his hand can afford. ³¹ Of that which his hand can afford the one is for a sin offering and the other for an ascent offering along with the approach present. Thus the priest will make a propitiatory shelter over the one cleansing himself before Yahweh. ³² This is the law for one in whom is the contagion of leprous disease whose hand cannot afford more for his cleansing.

⁴ And Jesus is saying to him, "See that you may tell it to no one, but go away; show yourself to the priest and bring the approach present which Moses bids, for a testimony to them."

³⁰ And opened were their eyes. And Jesus mutters to them, saying, "See! Let no one know!"

¹⁸ Now before governors and kings also shall you be led on My account, for a testimony to them and to the nations."

¹⁶ And He warns them that they should not be making Him manifest,

⁴⁴ and is saying to him, "See! you may be saying nothing to anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest, and bring for your cleansing what Moses bids, for a testimony to them."

¹¹ And whatever place should not be receiving you, nor yet they should be hearing you, going out thence, shake off the soil which is underneath your feet, for a testimony to them. Verily, I am saying to you, More tolerable will it be for Sodom or Gomorrah in the day of judging than for that city."

⁵ And whoever should not be receiving you, coming out from that city, twitch off even the dust from your feet for a testimony against them."

¹⁴ And, perceiving it, He said to them, "Go, exhibit yourselves to the priests.And at their going away, it came to be that they are cleansed."

³³ The fear of Yahweh is the discipline of wisdom, And before glory goes humility."

²³ And Jesus led them about in the whole of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and heralding the evangel of the kingdom, and curing every disease and every debility among the people. ²⁴ And forth came the tidings of Him into the whole of Syria. And they bring to Him all who have an illness, those with various diseases and pressing torments, also demoniacs and epileptics and paralytics, and He cures them. ²⁵ And there follow Him vast throngs from Galilee and the Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judea and the other side of the Jordan.

²⁶ And the fame of this came out into the whole of that land.

³⁰ And there came to Him vast throngs, having with them the lame, the blind, the mute, the maimed, and many others. And they toss them at His feet, and he cures them, ³¹ so that the throng marvels, observing the mute speaking, the maimed sound, the lame walking and the blind observing. And they glorify the God of Israel."

²⁸ And straightway, the tidings of Him came out everywhere into the whole country about Galilee."

⁴⁵ Now he, coming out, begins heralding it much, and to blaze abroad the word, so that, by no means can He longer be manifestly entering into a city, but was outside in desolate places. And they came to him from everywhere."

⁷ And Jesus, with His disciples, retires to the sea. And a vast multitude from Galilee follows Him."

²⁵ Now vast throngs went together with Him. And, being turned, He said to them,

² Now there followed Him a vast throng, for they beheld the signs which He did on the infirm."

²⁵ Similarly the ideal acts also are taken for granted, and those having it otherwise can not be hid."

²³ And, dismissing the throngs, He ascended into the mountain privately to pray. Now, evening coming on, He was there alone."

³⁵ And in the morning, rising very early, still in the night, He came out and came away into a desolate place, and there He prayed." ³⁶ And Simon and those with him trail Him.

⁴⁶ And, taking leave of them, He came away into the mountain to pray."

¹² Now it occurred in these days that He came out into the mountain to pray, and throughout the night He was in the prayer of God."

¹⁵ Jesus, then, knowing that they are about to come and snatch Him, that they should be making Him king, retires again into the mountain by Himself alone."

⁵ The blind are receiving sight, and the lame are walking; lepers are being cleansed, and the deaf are hearing, and the dead are being roused, and to the poor the evangel is being brought."

¹ Then, coming to Jesus from Jerusalem are Pharisees and scribes, saying,

²² And the scribes who descend from Jerusalem said that "Beelzeboul has he,and that "By the chief of the demons is he casting out the demons."

³⁰ And straightway Jesus, recognizing in Himself the power coming out of Him, being turned about in the throng, said, "Who touches My garments?

¹ And gathering to Him are the Pharisees and some of the scribes coming from Jerusalem.

¹⁸ they will be picking up serpents; and if they should be drinking anything deadly, it should under no circumstances be harming them; they will be placing hands on those who are ailing, and ideally will they be having it."

⁴⁶ And it occurred, after three days they found Him in the sanctuary, seated in the midst of the teachers, hearing them, as well as inquiring of them."

²¹ And the scribes and the Pharisees begin to reason, saying, "Who is this who is speaking blasphemies? Who is able to pardon sins except God only?

³⁰ And the Pharisees and their scribes murmured to His disciples, saying, "Wherefore are you eating and drinking with the tribute collectors and sinners?

¹⁹ And the entire throng sought to touch Him, for power came out of Him, and He healed all."

³⁰ Yet the Pharisees and those learned in the law repudiate the counsel of God for themselves, not being baptized by him."

⁴⁶ Yet Jesus said, "Someone touches Me, for I knew power has come out from Me."

⁵² Woe to you who are learned in the law! for you take away the key of knowledge-you yourselves do not enter, and those who are entering you prevent." ⁵³ And at His coming out thence, the scribes and the Pharisees begin to hem Him in dreadfully and to be quizzing Him concerning more things, ⁵⁴ ambushing Him,seeking to pounce upon something out of His mouth, that they shall be accusing Him."

² And both the Pharisees and the scribes grumbled, saying that "This man sinners is receiving, and is eating with them!"

²¹ Now he who is doing the truth is coming to the light that his acts may be made manifest, for they have been wrought in God."

³⁰ by the stretching out of Thy hand for healing and signs and miracles to occur through the name of Thy holy Boy Jesus."

¹¹ Besides, powerful deeds, not the casual kind, God did through the hands of Paul,

² And lo! they brought to Him a paralytic, prostrate on a couch. And Jesus, perceiving their faith, said to the paralytic, "Courage, child! Pardoned are your sins!" ³ And lo! some of the scribes say among themselves, "This man is blaspheming!" ⁴ And Jesus, perceiving their sentiments, said, "Why are you brooding wickedness in your hearts? ⁵ For what is easier, to be saying, 'Pardoned are your sins,' or to be saying, 'Rouse and walk'? ⁶ Now, that you may be perceiving that the Son of Mankind has authority on earth to pardon sins"-then He is saying to the paralytic, "Being roused, pick up your couch and go into your house." ⁷ And, being roused, he came away into his house." ⁸ Now, on perceiving it, the throngs were afraid, and they glorify God, Who is giving such authority to men."

³ And they are coming, bringing to Him a paralytic being lifted by four." ⁴ And, not being able to carry him to Him because of the throng, they unroof the roof where He was, and, scooping it out, they are lowering the pallet whereon the paralytic was laid." ⁵ And Jesus, perceiving their faith, is saying to the paralytic, "Child, pardoned you are your sins." ⁶ Now there were some of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, ⁷ What is this man, speaking thus? Blaspheming is he! Who is able to pardon sins except One - God? ⁸ And straightway Jesus, recognizing in His spirit that they are reasoning thus in themselves, is saying to them, "Why are you reasoning these things in your hearts? ⁹ What is easier, to be saying to the paralytic, 'Pardoned are your sins,' or to be saying, 'Rouse and pick up your pallet and walk'? ¹⁰ Now, that you may be perceiving that the Son of Mankind has authority on earth to pardon sins(He is saying to the paralytic), ¹¹ To you am I saying, Rouse, and pick up your pallet and go into your house." ¹² And he was roused, and, straightway, picking up the pallet, he came out in front of all, so that all are amazed and are glorifying God, saying that, "Thus we never perceived it!"

⁵ Now a certain man was there having been in his infirmity thirty-eight years. ⁶ Jesus, perceiving this one lying down, and knowing that he has already spent much time, is saying to him, "Do you want to become sound?

³³ Now he found there a certain man named Eneas, eight years lying down on a pallet, who was paralyzed."

⁸ When you build a new house, then you must make a parapet for your housetop so that you do not bring blood-guilt on your house in case someone falling from it might fall to death.

² and it comes to pass, at evening-time, that David rises from off his couch, and walks up and down on the roof of the king's house, and sees from the roof a woman bathing, and the woman [is] of very good appearance,

¹³ and the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, have been--as the place of Tophet--defiled, even all the houses on whose roofs they have made perfume to all the host of the heavens, so as to pour out oblations to other elohims.'"

²⁷ What I am saying to you in the darkness, say in the light. And what you hearing in the ear, herald on the housetops."

¹⁷ Let him who is on the housetop not descend to take away the things out of his house.

⁴ And, not being able to carry him to Him because of the throng, they unroof the roof where He was, and, scooping it out, they are lowering the pallet whereon the paralytic was laid."

¹² And saying is he, "You must not stretch out your hand on the lad, and you must not do aught to him, for now I know that you fear the Elohim, for you have not kept back your son, your only one from Me.

⁷ For we are consumed by Your anger, And by Your fury are we filled with panic." ⁸ You have set our depravities in front of You, Our obscured deeds in the full light of Your face."

¹⁷ The foolish, because of the way of their transgression, And because of their depravities, they were humbled." ¹⁸ Their soul abhorred all food, And they touched close unto the gates of death."

¹⁷ Behold! For welfare there is bitterness to me; very great bitterness. Yet You are attached to my soul, to keep it from the ruin of decay, for You do fling behind Your body all my sins."

² And lo! they brought to Him a paralytic, prostrate on a couch. And Jesus, perceiving their faith, said to the paralytic, "Courage, child! Pardoned are your sins!"

⁵ And Jesus, perceiving their faith, is saying to the paralytic, "Child, pardoned you are your sins."

⁴⁸ Now He said to her, "Pardoned are your sins."

²⁵ for He had no need that anyone should be testifying concerning mankind, for He knew what was in mankind."

¹⁴ After these things Jesus is finding him in the sanctuary, and said to him, "Lo! you have become sound. By no means longer be sinning, lest something worse may be coming to you."

²³ who, coming along and perceiving the grace of God, rejoiced and entreated all with purpose of heart to be remaining in the Lord -"

⁹ This one hears Paul speaking, who, looking intently at him, and perceiving that he has faith to be saved,

¹⁰ Now, with whom you are dealing graciously in anything, I, also. For in what I also have dealt graciously (if I have dealt graciously in anything), it is because of you in the face of Christ,

¹³ bearing with one another and dealing graciously among yourselves, if anyone should be having a complaint against any. According as the Lord also deals graciously with you, thus also you."

¹⁸ But someone will be declaring, "You have faith and I have works.Show me your faith apart from the works and I shall be showing you my faith by my works."

¹⁴ Is anyone infirm among you? Let him call to him the elders of the ecclesia, and let them pray over him, rubbing him with olive oil in the name of the Lord." ¹⁵ And the vow of faith will be saving the faltering and the Lord will be rousing him up, and, if he should have done sins, it will be forgiven him."

⁶ Now Yahweh passed by before his face and called: Yahweh, Yahweh El, Who is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger and with much kindness and truth, ⁷ preserving kindness to thousands, bearing with depravity, transgression and sin, yet He is not immediately making innocent in order to make innocent, but visiting the depravity of the fathers on the sons and on the sons' sons, on the third and on the fourth generation.

¹⁶ The blasphemer of the name of Yahweh shall be put to death, yea death. The whole congregation shall pelt, yea pelt him with stones. The sojourner as well as the native; when he blasphemes the Name, he shall be put to death.

¹⁰ and cause two men--sons of worthlessness--to sit over-against him, and they testify of him, saying, You have blessed Elohim and Melech; and they have brought him out, and stoned him, and he dies.. ¹¹ And the men of his city, the elders and the freemen who are dwelling in his city, do as Jezebel has sent unto them, as written in the letters that she sent unto them, ¹² they have proclaimed a fast, and caused Naboth to sit at the head of the people, ¹³ and two men--sons of worthlessness--come in, and sit over-against him, and the men of worthlessness testify of him, even Naboth, before the people, saying, `Naboth blessed Elohim and Melech;' and they take him out to the outside of the city, and stone him with stones, and he dies;" <sup>14</sup> and they send unto Jezebel, saying, `Naboth was stoned, and is dead..

⁵ I am now acknowledging my sin to You, And I do not cover over my depravity. I said, I shall confess against myself my transgressions to Yahweh, And You, You lift away the depravity of my sin. {Interlude{ "

⁵ May they become like trash before the wind, With a messenger of Yahweh expelling them."

³ Who is pardoning all your depravity, Who is healing all your ailments,

⁴ For with You is pardon That You may be devoutly feared.

¹⁸ Go, pray and it shall be corrected,saying is Yahweh. "If your sins are coming to be as double dipped scarlet, as snow shall they be white. If they are reddened as crimson, as wool shall they become."

²⁵ I, I am He Who wipes out your transgressions on My own account, and your sins I will not remember further."

²² For behold! I wipe out as a dense haze, your transgressions, and as a cloud, your sins. Return to Me, for I redeemed you."

⁹ Of Yahweh our Elohim are compassions and pardons; for we revolt against Him."

¹⁹ My Lord, hear! My Lord, pardon! My Lord, attend and do! Thou must not be delaying on Thine own account, my Elohim, for Thy name is called over Thy city and over Thy people, Israel."

¹⁹ He will return, having compassion on us. He will subdue our depravities. And You wilt fling into the shadowy depths of the sea all our sins."

³ And lo! some of the scribes say among themselves, "This man is blaspheming!"

⁶⁵ Then the chief priest tears his garments, saying that "He blasphemes! What need have we still of witnesses? Lo! now you hear his blasphemy!"

⁶ Now there were some of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, ⁷ What is this man, speaking thus? Blaspheming is he! Who is able to pardon sins except One - God?

¹⁷ And it occurred on one of the days, that He was teaching, and the Pharisees and the teachers of the law were sitting, who were come out of every village of Galilee and of Judea and Jerusalem. And there was power of the Lord for their healing."

⁴⁹ And those lying back at table with Him begin to be saying among themselves, "Who is this who is pardoning sins also?

³³ The Jews answered Him, "For an ideal act we are not stoning you, but for blasphemy, and that you, being a man, are making yourself God."

¹¹ Then they suborned men, saying that, "We have heard him speaking declarations, blaspheming Moses and God." ¹² They stir up the people as well as the elders and the scribes, and standing by, they grip him, and led him into the Sanhedrin." ¹³ Besides, they put false witnesses on the stand, who say, "This man does not cease speaking, making declarations against this holy place and the law,

³³ Who will be indicting God's chosen ones? God, the Justifier?

⁹ `And you, Solomon, my son, know the Elohim of your father, and serve Him with a perfect heart, and with a willing mind, for all hearts is Yahweh seeking, and every imagination of the thoughts He is understanding; if you do seek Him, He is found of you, and if you do forsake Him, He casts you off for ever.

² You Yourself know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thought from afar;

²⁶ Evil devisings are an abhorrence to Yahweh, Yet the sayings of the pure are pleasantness."

¹⁸ And I know their deeds and their devices! I will come to convene all the nations and the tongues. And they come and see My glory."

¹⁰ Thus said the Lord Yahweh:And it has come to pass in that day, Come up do things on your heart, And you have thought an evil thought,

⁴ And Jesus, perceiving their sentiments, said, "Why are you brooding wickedness in your hearts?

²⁵ Now, having perceived their sentiments, He said to them, "Every kingdom parted against itself is being desolated, and every city or house parted against itself shall not stand."

¹⁷ And, knowing it, Jesus is saying to them, "Why are you reasoning that you have no bread? Not as yet are you apprehending, neither understanding? Still calloused is your heart?

³⁸ And He said to then, "Why are you disturbed? And wherefore are reasonings coming up in your hearts?

³ Now Peter said, "Ananias, wherefore does Satan fill your heart for you to falsify to the holy spirit and to embezzle from the price of the freehold?

¹² For the word of God is living and operative, and keen above any two-edged sword, and penetrating up to the parting of soul and spirit, both of the articulations and marrow, and is a judge of the sentiments and thoughts of the heart."

²³ And her children shall I be killing with death, and all the ecclesias shall know that I an He Who is searching the kidneys and hearts. And I will be giving to each of you in accord with your acts."

⁵ For what is easier, to be saying, 'Pardoned are your sins,' or to be saying, 'Rouse and walk'?

⁹ What is easier, to be saying to the paralytic, 'Pardoned are your sins,' or to be saying, 'Rouse and pick up your pallet and walk'?

¹¹ From the toil of His soul shall He see light. And He shall be satisfied by His knowledge. My righteous Servant shall justify many, and with their depravities shall He be burdened."

¹³ Perceiving am I in the visions of the night, and behold, on the clouds of the heavens, One as a son of a mortal is arriving:Unto the Transferrer of Days He reaches, and they bring Him near before Him;"

⁶ Now, that you may be perceiving that the Son of Mankind has authority on earth to pardon sins"-then He is saying to the paralytic, "Being roused, pick up your couch and go into your house."

¹³ Now Jesus, coming into parts of Caesarea Philippi, asked His disciples, saying, "Who are men saying the Son of Mankind is?

³¹ Now, whenever the Son of Mankind may be coming in His glory, and all the holy messengers with Him, then shall He be seated on the throne of His glory,

⁶⁴ Saying to him is Jesus, "You say it! Moreover, I am saying to you, Henceforth you shall be seeing the Son of Mankind sitting at the right hand of power and coming on the clouds of heaven."

¹⁸ And, approaching, Jesus speaks to them saying, "Given to Me was all authority in heaven and on the earth."

¹³ And, stretching out His hand, He touches him, saying, "I am willing! Be cleansed!And immediately the leprosy came away from him."

¹⁴ And approaching, He touches the bier. Now those bearing it stand. And he said, "Youth, to you am I saying, Be roused!"

⁵⁴ Yet He, casting all outside and holding her hand, shouts, saying, "Girl, be roused!"

¹³ And no one has ascended into heaven except He Who descends out of heaven, the Son of Mankind Who is in heaven."

⁸ Jesus is saying to him, "Rouse and pick up your pallet and walk!" ⁹ And immediately the man became sound, and he was roused and picks up his pallet and walked. Now it was a sabbath on that day." ¹⁰ The Jews, then, said to him who has been cured, "It is a sabbath, and it is not allowed you to pick up your pallet!" ¹¹ Yet he answered them, "He Who makes me sound, that One said to me, 'Pick up your pallet and walk.'" ¹² They ask him then, "Who is the man who said to you, 'Pick up your pallet and walk'?

²² For neither is the Father judging anyone, but has given all judging to the Son, ²³ that all may be honoring the Son, according as they are honoring the Father. He who is not honoring the Son is not honoring the Father Who sends Him."

²⁷ And He gives Him authority to do judging, seeing that He is a son of mankind."

⁴³ And, saying these things, He clamors with a loud voice, "Lazarus! Hither! Out!"

² according as Thou givest Him authority over all flesh, that everything which Thou hast given to Him, He should be giving it to them, even life eonian."

²² And saying this, He exhales and is saying to them, "Get holy spirit!" ²³ If you should be forgiving anyone's sins, they have been forgiven them. If anyone's you should be holding, they are held."

⁶ Yet Peter said, "Silver and gold I do not possess; yet what I have, this I am giving to you. In the name of Jesus Christ, the Nazarene, walk!" ⁷ And seizing his right hand, he raises him up. Now instantly his insteps and ankles were given stability, ⁸ and, leaping up, he stood and walked and entered with them into the sanctuary, walking and leaping and praising God."

³¹ This Inaugurator and Saviour, God exalts to His right hand, to give repentance to Israel and the pardon of sins."

³⁴ And Peter said to him, "Eneas, Jesus Christ is healing you! Rise and spread your pallet by yourself!And immediately he rose."

⁴⁰ Now Peter, ejecting them all outside and kneeling, prays. And turning about to the body, he said, "Tabitha, rise!Now she opens her eyes, and perceiving Peter, sits up."

¹⁰ said with a loud voice, "Rise upright on your feet!And he leaps, and walked."

¹³ and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like a son of mankind, dressed in a garment reaching to the feet, and girded about at the breasts with a golden girdle."

²³ The one sacrificing acclamation is glorifying Me, Thus he orders his way so that I may show him the salvation of Elohim. {Permanent{ "

¹ {Davidic{ Bless Yahweh, O my soul, And all within me, bless His holy Name!" ² Bless Yahweh, O my soul, And do not forget any of His well-dealings, ³ Who is pardoning all your depravity, Who is healing all your ailments,

²⁰ He sent forth His word and healed them, And He provided escape from their graves." ²¹ Let them acclaim Yahweh for His benignity And His marvelous works to the sons of humanity. ²² And let them sacrifice sacrifices of acclamation And recount His deeds with jubilant song.

¹³ And He places His hands on her, and instantly she was made erect again, and she glorified God."

¹⁵ Now one of them, perceiving that he was healed, returns, glorifying God with a loud voice." ¹⁶ And he falls on his face at His feet, thanking Him. And he was a Samaritan." ¹⁷ Now, answering, Jesus said, "Are not the ten cleansed? Yet where are the nine? ¹⁸ Were none found returning to give glory to God except this foreigner?

⁴³ And instantly he receives sight and followed Him, glorifying God. And the entire people, perceiving it, give praise to God."

²⁴ A second time, then, they summon the man who was blind, and they say to him, "Give the glory to God. We are aware that this man is a sinner."

⁹ And it has been to Me for a name of joy, For praise, and for beauty, to all nations of the earth, Who hear of all the good that I am doing them, And they have feared, And they have trembled for all the good, And for all the peace, that I am doing to it."

⁵ Afterward are the sons of Israel returning, and they seek Yahweh their Elohim, and David their king, and they come in awe to Yahweh and to His goodness, in the latter days."

⁸ Now, on perceiving it, the throngs were afraid, and they glorify God, Who is giving such authority to men."

²³ And amazed are all the throngs, and they said, "Is not this the Son of David?

⁸ And coming away swiftly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to report to His disciples."

¹² And he was roused, and, straightway, picking up the pallet, he came out in front of all, so that all are amazed and are glorifying God, saying that, "Thus we never perceived it!"

⁸ Now perceiving it, Simon Peter prostrates before Jesus' knees, saying, "Come away from me, for a man, a sinner am I, Lord!"

¹⁶ Now fear got all, and they glorified God, saying that "A great prophet was roused among us!and that "God visits His people!"

³⁷ And the entire multitude of the country about the Gergesenes asks Him to be coming away from them, for they were pressed by a great fear."

²¹ Yet those who are menacing them release them, finding nothing how they should be chastening them, because of the people; for all glorified God for that which has occurred, "

¹¹ And great fear came on the whole ecclesia and on all those who hear these things. ¹² Now through the hands of the apostles many signs and miracles occurred among the people. And they were all, with one accord, in the portico of Solomon." ¹³ Now of the rest, no one dared to join them, but the people magnify them,

²⁴ And they glorified God in me.

¹⁹ And He is saying to them, "Hither! After Me, and I will be making you fishers of men!" ²⁰ Now immediately leaving the nets, they follow Him. ²¹ And, advancing thence, He perceived two others, brothers, James of Zebedee and John, his brother, in the ship with Zebedee, their father, adjusting their nets. And He calls them.

²² Yet Jesus is saying to him, "Be following Me, and leave the dead to entomb their own dead."

⁹ And Jesus, passing by thence, perceived a man termed Matthew sitting at the tribute office, and He is saying to him, "Follow Me!And, rising, he follows Him." ¹⁰ And it came, at His lying back at table in the house, and lo! many tribute collectors and sinners, coming, lay back at the table together with Jesus and His disciples." ¹¹ And, perceiving it, the Pharisees said to His disciples, "Wherefore is your teacher eating with tribute collectors and sinners? ¹² Now hearing, He said, "No need have the strong of a physician, but those having an illness." ¹³ Now go, learn what this is: Mercy am I wanting, and not sacrifice. For I did not come to call the just but sinners." ¹⁴ Then coming to Him are the disciples of John, saying, "Wherefore are we and the Pharisees fasting much, yet your disciples are not fasting? ¹⁵ And Jesus said to them, "The sons of the bridal chamber can not be mourning, in as much as the bridegroom is with them. Yet coming will be the days whenever the bridegroom may be taken away from them, and then they will be fasting." ¹⁶ Now no one is patching a patch of unshrunk shred on an old cloak, for the patch which fills it up is lifting some from the cloak itself, and the rent is becoming worse." ¹⁷ Neither are they draining fresh wine into old wine skins; otherwise, surely the wine skins are bursting, and the wine is spilling, and the wine skins perish. But they are draining fresh wine into new wine skins, and both are preserved."

³ Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew, the tribute collector, James of Alpheus and Thaddeus,

²⁴ Then Jesus said to His disciples: "If anyone is wanting to come after Me, let him renounce himself and pick up his cross and follow Me."

¹³ And He came out again beside the sea. And the entire throng came to Him, and He taught them." ¹⁴ And, passing along, He perceived Levi of Alpheus, sitting at the tribute office. And He is saying to him, "Follow Me!" ¹⁵ And, rising, he follows Him. And, at His coming to lie down in his house, many tribute collectors also, and sinners lay back at table with Jesus and His disciples, for there were many, and they followed Him." ¹⁶ And the scribes of the Pharisees, perceiving Him also that He ate with the tribute collectors and the sinners, said to His disciples, "Wherefore is it that your teacher is eating and drinking with the tribute collectors and the sinners? ¹⁷ And, hearing it, Jesus is saying to them that "No need have the strong of a physician, but those having an illness. I did not come to call the just, but sinners." ¹⁸ And the disciples of John and the Pharisees were fasting, and they are coming and saying to Him, "Wherefore are the disciples of John and the disciples of the Pharisees fasting, yet your disciples are not fasting? ¹⁹ And Jesus said to them, "The sons of the bridal chamber can not be fasting while the bridegroom is with them! Whatever time they have the bridegroom with them, they can not be fasting." ²⁰ Yet coming will be days, whenever the bridegroom may be taken away from them, and then they will be fasting in that day." ²¹ No one is sewing a patch of unshrunk shred on an old cloak. Yet, if so, is not that which fills up taking away from it, the new from the old, and a worse rent is occurring? ²² And no one is draining fresh wine into old wine skins. Yet, if so, will not the fresh wine be bursting the wine skins? And the wine is spilling, and the wine skins will perish. But fresh wine is put into new wine skins."

¹⁸ and Andrew and Philip and Bartholomew and Matthew and Thomas and James of Alpheus and Thaddeus and Simon the Cananite

²² Now hearing this, Jesus said to him, "Still one thing you are lacking. All, whatever you have, sell, and distribute to the poor, and you will be having treasure in the heavens. And hither! Follow Me."

⁴³ On the morrow He wants to come away into Galilee, and He is finding Philip. And Jesus is saying to him, "Follow Me."

²⁶ If anyone should be serving Me, let him be following Me, and where I am, there My servant also shall be. And if anyone should be serving Me, the Father shall be honoring him."

¹⁹ Now this He said, signifying by what death he will be glorifying God. And saying this, He is saying to him, "Follow Me!" ²⁰ Now Peter, being turned about, is observing the disciple whom Jesus loved, following, who leans back also on His chest at the dinner and said to Him, "Lord who is it who is giving Thee up? ²¹ Peter, then, perceiving this one, is saying to Jesus, "Lord, yet what of this man? ²² Jesus is saying to him, "If I should be wanting him to be remaining till I am coming, what is it to you? You be following Me!"

¹⁹ And he goes thence, and finds Elisha son of Shaphat, and he is plowing; twelve yoke [are] before him, and he [is] with the twelfth; and Elijah passes over unto him, and casts his robe upon him, ²⁰ and he forsakes the oxen, and runs after Elijah, and said, `Let me give a kiss, I pray you, to my father and to my mother, and I go after you.' And he said to him, `Go, turn back, for what have I done to you?. ²¹ And he turns back from after him, and takes the yoke of oxen, and sacrifices it, and with instruments of the oxen he has boiled their flesh, and gives to the people, and they eat, and he rises, and goes after Elijah, and serves him. ²² Now, hearing this word, the youth came away sorrowing, for he had many acquisitions." ²³ Now Jesus said to His disciples, "Verily, I am saying to you that the rich squeamishly will be entering into the kingdom of the heavens." ²⁴ Yet again, I am saying to you that it is easier for a camel to be entering through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to be entering into the kingdom of God." ²⁵ Now, hearing it, the disciples were tremendously astonished, saying, "Who, consequently, can be saved? ²⁶ Now, looking at them, Jesus said to them, "With men this is impossible, yet with God all is possible." ²⁷ Then, answering, Peter said to Him, "Lo! we leave all and follow Thee. What, consequently, will it be to us?

¹¹ And bringing the ships onto the land, leaving all, they follow Him."

⁵⁹ Now He said to a different one, "Follow Me!Yet he said, "Lord, permit me first to come away to entomb my father." ⁶⁰ Yet He said to him, "Let the dead entomb their own dead. Yet you, coming away, publish the kingdom of God." ⁶¹ Now a different one also said, "I shall be following Thee, Lord! Yet first permit me to take leave of those in my home." ⁶² Yet Jesus said to him, "No one, putting forth his hand on a plow and looking behind, is fit in the kingdom of God."

¹⁰ And it came, at His lying back at table in the house, and lo! many tribute collectors and sinners, coming, lay back at the table together with Jesus and His disciples."

¹⁵ And, rising, he follows Him. And, at His coming to lie down in his house, many tribute collectors also, and sinners lay back at table with Jesus and His disciples, for there were many, and they followed Him."

¹ Now all the tribute collectors and sinners were coming near Him to be hearing Him.

² They make, then, for Him a dinner there, and Martha served. Now Lazarus was one of those lying back at table with Him."

⁹ I write to you in the epistle not to be commingling with paramours. ¹⁰ And undoubtedly it is not as to the paramours of this world, or the greedy and extortionate, or idolaters, else, consequently, you ought to come out of the world." ¹¹ Yet now I write to you not to be commingling with anyone named a brother, if he should be a paramour, or greedy, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner. With such a one you are not even to be eating."

²⁷ If anyone of the unbelievers is inviting you, and you want to go, be eating everything that is placed before you, examining nothing because of conscience."

⁵ who are saying, `Keep near to yourself! You must not come close to me, for I am holier than you.' These are a smoke in My nose, a fire which is glowing all the day."

²⁸ Now what are you supposing? A man had two children. And, coming to the first, he said, 'Child, go today, work in my vineyard.'" ²⁹ Yet he, answering, said, 'I do not want to.' Yet subsequently, regretting it, he went forth." ³⁰ Now, coming to the second, he said similarly. Now he, answering, said, "I go, lord! and he went not forth." ³¹ Which of the two does the will of the father?They are saying, "The first.Jesus is saying to them, "Verily, I am saying to you that the tribute collectors and the prostitutes are preceding you into the kingdom of God." ³² For John came to you on the road of righteousness, and you do not believe him. Yet the tribute collectors and the prostitutes believe him. Now you, perceiving it, did not even regret subsequently, so as to believe him."

³ (for the Pharisees and all the Jews, if ever they should not be washing the hands with the fist, are not eating, holding the tradition of the elders;"

²⁹ And hearing, the entire people, even the tribute collectors, justify God, being baptized with the baptism of John." ³⁰ Yet the Pharisees and those learned in the law repudiate the counsel of God for themselves, not being baptized by him."

³⁴ Come has the Son of Mankind, eating and drinking, and you are saying, "'Lo! a man gluttonous and a tippler, a friend of tribute collectors and sinners!'"

³⁹ Now, perceiving it, the Pharisee who invites Him said in himself, saying, "This one, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman it is who is touching him, seeing that she is a sinner."

¹ Now all the tribute collectors and sinners were coming near Him to be hearing Him. ² And both the Pharisees and the scribes grumbled, saying that "This man sinners is receiving, and is eating with them!"

¹¹ The Pharisee, standing, prayed this to himself: 'God, I am thanking you that I am not even as the rest of men, rapacious, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tribute collector."

⁷ And perceiving it, all grumbled, saying that with a man who is a sinner He entered to put up for the night."

⁹ Now a great clamor occurred, and, rising, some of the scribes of the party of the Pharisees fought it out with one another, saying, "Nothing evil are we finding in this man. Now if a spirit or messenger speaks to him - "

²² Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? For wherefore has not the health of the daughter of my people gone up?

¹² Now hearing, He said, "No need have the strong of a physician, but those having an illness." ¹³ Now go, learn what this is: Mercy am I wanting, and not sacrifice. For I did not come to call the just but sinners."

¹⁷ And, hearing it, Jesus is saying to them that "No need have the strong of a physician, but those having an illness. I did not come to call the just, but sinners."

⁶ Inquire for Yahweh while He is to be found; call Him while He comes to be near. ⁷ Forsake shall the wicked one his way, and the lawless man his devices, and he shall return to Yahweh, and He will have compassion on him, and to our Elohim, for he will increasingly pardon your sins."

¹⁵ For thus says Yahweh, high and lifted up, who tabernacles the future, and holy is His name:"In the high and holy place am I tabernacling, and with the crushed and lowly spirit, to preserve alive the spirit of the lowly, and to preserve alive the heart of the crushed."

¹⁰ See that you should not be despising one of these little ones, for I am saying to you that their messengers in the heavens are continually observing the face of My Father Who is in the heavens."

⁷ Now there was one termed Bar-Abbas, bound with the insurrectionists, who had done some murder in the insurrection."

¹⁰ For he recognized that because of envy the chief priests had given Him up.

¹⁸ The spirit of the Lord is on Me, On account of which He anoints Me to bring the evangel to the poor. He has commissioned Me to heal the crushed heart, To herald to captives a pardon, And to the blind the receiving of sight; To dispatch the oppressed with a pardon." ¹⁹ To herald an acceptable year of the Lord..."

⁷ I am saying to you that thus there will be joy in heaven over one sinner repenting, more than over the ninety-nine just persons who have no need of repentance."

¹⁰ Thus, I am saying to you, there is coming to be joy in the sight of the messengers of God over one sinner repenting."

¹⁰ Two men went up into the sanctuary to pray, the one a Pharisee, and the other a tribute collector." ¹¹ The Pharisee, standing, prayed this to himself: 'God, I am thanking you that I am not even as the rest of men, rapacious, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tribute collector." ¹² I am fasting twice of a sabbath. I am taking tithes from all whatever I am acquiring.' ¹³ Now the tribute collector, standing afar off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his chest, saying, 'God, make a propitiatory shelter for me, the sinner!' " ¹⁴ I am saying to you, this man descended to his home justified, rather than that one, for everyone who is exalting himself shall be humbled, yet he who is humbling himself shall be exalted."

¹⁰ For the Son of Mankind came to seek and to save the lost."

⁴⁷ and there is to be heralded in His name repentance for the pardon of sins, to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem."

³⁸ Now Peter is averring to them, "Repent and be baptized each of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the pardon of your sins, and you shall be obtaining the gratuity of the holy spirit."

¹⁹ Repent, then, and turn about for the erasure of your sins, so that seasons of refreshing should be coming from the face of the Lord,

²⁶ To you first, God, raising His Boy, commissions Him to bless you by turning away each of you from your wickedness."

³⁰ Indeed, then, condoning the times of ignorance, God is now charging mankind that all everywhere are to repent,

²¹ certifying to both Jews and to Greeks repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

¹⁸ to open their eyes, to turn them about from darkness to light and from the authority of Satan to God, for them to get a pardon of sins and an allotment among those who have been hallowed by faith that is in Me.'" ¹⁹ Whence, king Agrippa, I did not become stubborn as to the heavenly apparition, " ²⁰ but first to those in Damascus, besides in Jerusalem also, besides to the entire province of Judea, and to the nations, I reported that they are to be repenting and turning back to God, engaging acts worthy of repentance."

⁹ Or are you not aware that the unjust shall not be enjoying the allotment of God's kingdom? Be not deceived. Neither paramours, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor catamites, nor sodomites, ¹⁰ nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards; no revilers, no extortioners shall be enjoying the allotment of God's kingdom." ¹¹ And some of you were these, but you are bathed off, but you are hallowed, but you were justified in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and by the spirit of our God."

¹⁵ Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all welcome, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, foremost of whom am I." ¹⁶ But therefore was I shown mercy, that in me, the foremost, Jesus Christ should be displaying all His patience, for a pattern of those who are about to be believing on Him for life eonian."

²⁵ with meekness training those who are antagonizing, seeing whether God may be giving them repentance to come into a realization of the truth, ²⁶ and they will be sobering up out of the trap of the Adversary, having been caught alive by him, for that one's will."

⁹ The Lord is not tardy as to the promise, as some are deeming tardiness, but is patient because of you, not intending any to perish, but all to make room for repentance."

⁹ He who keeps his ear away from hearing the law--Even his prayer is an abhorrence.

¹⁵ And when you spread your palms to Me, I will obscure My eyes from you. Moreover, in case you are increasing your prayers, there is no hearing by Me. Your hands are full of blood. Amidst your fingers extrudes lawlessness."

³ Why do we fast, yet You do not see? We humble our souls, yet You are not knowing?Behold! In the day of your fast you are finding delight, and all your grievous labors are you exacting of others." ⁴ Behold! For contention and strife are you fasting, and to smite with the fist of wickedness. Not to Me are you fasting, as of today, to announce in the height with your voice." ⁵ As this is becoming a fast, am I choosing it? A day for a human to humble his soul, to bend, as a rush, his head, and in sackcloth and ashes be berthing? Is this what you are calling a fast and a day acceptable to Yahweh? ⁶ Is not this the fast that I am choosing,saying is Yahweh:"To unloose all the hindrances of wickedness, and to let loose the bunches of the slider bar, and to send the bruised away free, and every slider bar shall you pull away?

⁶ And when you are eating, and when you are drinking, are you not the eaters, and you the drinkers?

⁵ And whenever you may be praying, you shall not be as the hypocrites, for they are fond of standing in the synagogues and at the corners of the squares to be praying, so that they may appear to men. Verily, I am saying to you, They are collecting their wages!" ⁶ Now you, whenever you may be praying, enter into your storeroom, and, locking your door, pray to your Father Who is in hiding, and your Father, Who is observing in hiding, will be paying you."

¹³ Now woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you are locking the kingdom of the heavens in front of men. For you are not entering, neither are you letting those entering to enter."

⁴⁰ who are devouring the homes of widows, and for a pretense are prolix in praying. These will be getting more excessive judgment."

³⁴ Come has the Son of Mankind, eating and drinking, and you are saying, "'Lo! a man gluttonous and a tippler, a friend of tribute collectors and sinners!'" ³⁵ And justified was Wisdom by all her children."

¹ And it occurred at His being in a certain place praying, as He ceases, a certain one of His disciples said to Him, "Lord, teach us to pray, according as John also teaches his disciples."

¹² I am fasting twice of a sabbath. I am taking tithes from all whatever I am acquiring.'

⁴⁷ who are devouring the homes of widows and, for a pretense, are prolix in praying. These will be getting more excessive judgment."

³⁵ On the morrow John again stood, and two of his disciples."

²⁵ There occurred, then, a questioning of the disciples of John with a Jew concerning cleansing."

¹¹ Now the Lord to him, "Rise! Go to the street called 'Straight,' and seek in the house of Judas for a Tarsian named Saul, for lo! he is praying."

² For I am testifying to them that they have a zeal of God, but not in accord with recognition." ³ For they, being ignorant of the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, were not subjected to the righteousness of God."

¹⁰ And his father goes down unto the woman, and Samson makes there a banquet, for so the young men do;" ¹¹ and it comes to pass when they see him, that they take thirty companions, and they are with him.

¹⁰ Hear, O daughter, and see, and stretch out your ear, And forget your people and the house of your father." ¹¹ The King yearns for your loveliness, For He is your Lord; worship Him." ¹² The daughter of Tyre comes with an approach present, The rich of the people are beseeching Your presence." ¹³ All glorious is the royal daughter while inside; Her clothing is with mountings of gold; ¹⁴ In embroidered robes she is fetched to the King; The virgins, her associates, are behind her, being brought to her." ¹⁵ They are fetched with joy and exultation; They come into the palace of the King. ¹⁶ Instead of your fathers shall be your sons; You shall set them as chiefs through the entire earth.

⁶ His left hand is under my head, And his right arm embraces me." ⁷ I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, By gazelles or by hinds of the field:Do not rouse, and do not rouse up love Until it delight."

¹⁰ Its columns he made of silver, Its bolster of gold, Its riding seat of purple, Its interior inlaid with love By the daughters of Jerusalem." ¹¹ Come forth, O daughters of Zion, and see king Solomon, With the crown with which his mother crowned him On the day of his espousal."

⁸ I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, If you find my darling, what shall you tell him? That I am ailing with love?

¹ Whither has your darling gone, loveliest among women? Whither has your darling faced? Let us seek him with you."

⁵ For your Possessor is your Maker. Yahweh of hosts is His name. And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel. The Elohim of the entire earth shall He be called.

⁵ For as possessing is a chosen man a virgin, possessing you are your sons. And as the elation of a bridegroom over the bride, so will Yahweh, your Elohim, be elated over you."

¹⁷ Yahweh, your Elohim, is within you; He, the Master, will save. He will be elated over you with rejoicing; He will renew you in His love; He will exult over you with jubilation."

² Likened was the kingdom of the heavens to a man, a king, who makes wedding festivities for his son."

¹ Then likened shall be the kingdom of the heavens to ten virgins, who getting their torches, came out to meet the bridegroom." ² Now five of them were stupid and five prudent. ³ For the stupid, getting their torches, got no oil with them, ⁴ yet the prudent got oil in the crocks with their torches. ⁵ Now, at the delaying of the bridegroom, they all nod and drowsed." ⁶ Now in the middle of the night a clamor occurs: 'Lo! the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!' ⁷ Then roused were all those virgins, and they adorn their torches." ⁸ Now the stupid said to the prudent, 'Give us of your oil, for our torches are going out.'" ⁹ Yet the prudent answered, saying, 'No, lest at some time there should not be sufficient for us and you." ¹⁰ Now, at their coming away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who are ready entered with him into the wedding festivities, and the door is locked."

²⁹ He Who has the bride is the Bridegroom. Yet the friend of the Bridegroom, who stands and is hearing Him, is rejoicing with joy because of the Bridegroom's voice. This, my joy, then, has been fulfilled."

² for I am jealous over you with a jealousy of God. For I betroth you to one Man, to present a chaste virgin to Christ. "

²⁵ Husbands, be loving your wives according as Christ also loves the ecclesia, and gives Himself up for its sake, ²⁶ that He should be hallowing it, cleansing it in the bath of the water (with His declaration), ²⁷ that He should be presenting to Himself a glorious ecclesia, not having spot or wrinkle or any such things, but that it may be holy and flawless."

⁷ We may be rejoicing and exulting and will be giving glory to Him, for the wedding of the Lambkin came, and Its bride makes herself ready." ⁸ And to her it was granted that she may be clothed in clean, resplendent cambric, for the cambric is the just awards of the saints." ⁹ And he is saying to me, "Write: 'Happy are those invited to the wedding dinner of the Lambkin.'And he is saying to me, "These are the true sayings of God."

¹² And my Lord, Yahweh of hosts, will call for lamentation in that day, and for wailing, and for baldness, and for girding on sackcloth;"

²⁶ After the sixty-two sevens, Messiah will be cut off, and there is no adjudication for Him. The city and the holy place shall be laid in ruins with the other governor's coming; then its end is by an overflow, and till the end of the war desolations will be decided."

⁷ O sword! rouse against My Shepherd, and against the Master, My Companion, (averring is Yahweh of hosts). Smite the Shepherd, and the flock is scattering. And I restore My hand on the inferior shepherds."

¹⁷ Now you, when fasting, rub your head with oil and wash your face, ¹⁸ so that you may not appear to men to be fasting, but to your Father Who is in hiding, and your Father, Who is observing in hiding, will be paying you."

²² Yet He said to His disciples, "Coming will be days when you will be yearning to perceive one of the days of the Son of Mankind, and you shall not see it."

¹⁷ Now He said to them, "What words are these which you are bandying one with another while walking?And they stood with a sad countenance." ¹⁸ Now, answering, the one named Cleopas said to Him, "You are sojourning alone in Jerusalem and did not know what things are occurring in her in these days? ¹⁹ And He said to them, "Which?Now they say to Him, "Those concerning Jesus the Nazarean, a Man Who came to be a Prophet, powerful in work and in word, in front of God and the entire people, ²⁰ so that both our chief priests and chiefs give Him up to the judgment of death, and they crucify Him." ²¹ Yet we expected that He is the One about to be redeeming Israel. But surely, together with all these things also, it is leading in this third day since these things occurred."

⁸ For the poor you have always with you, yet Me you have not always."

³³ Little children, still a little time am I with you. You shall be seeking Me, and, according as I said to the Jews that 'Where I am going you can not be coming,' at present I am saying it to you also."

³ And if I should be going and making ready a place for you, I am coming again and I will be taking you along to Myself, that where I am, you also may be." ⁴ And where I am going you are aware, and of the way you are aware."

⁴ But these things have I spoken to you that, whenever their hour may be coming, you may be remembering them, seeing that I told you. Now these things I did not tell you from the beginning, seeing that I was with you." ⁵ Yet now I am going away to Him Who sends Me, and not one of you is asking Me, 'Whither art Thou going?'" ⁶ But, seeing that I have spoken these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart." ⁷ But I am telling you the truth. It is expedient for you that I may be coming away, for if I should not be coming away, the consoler will not be coming to you."

¹⁶ A little, and no longer are you beholding Me; and again, a little, and you shall be seeing Me." ¹⁷ Some, then, of His disciples said to one another, "What is this that He is saying to us, 'A little, and you are not beholding Me, and again, a little, and you shall be seeing Me?' and that 'I am going away to the Father'? ¹⁸ They said, then, "What is this 'little' which He is saying? Not aware are we of what He is speaking." ¹⁹ Jesus, then, knew that they wanted to ask Him, and He said to them, "Concerning this are you seeking with one another that I said, 'A little, and you are not beholding Me, and again, a little, and you shall be seeing Me'? ²⁰ Verily, verily, I am saying to you that you shall be lamenting and wailing, yet the world will be rejoicing; yet you shall be sorrowed, but your sorrow shall become joy." ²¹ A woman, whenever she may be bringing forth, is having sorrow, seeing that her hour came; yet whenever she should be bearing the little child, no longer is she remembering the affliction, because of the joy that a human being was born into the world." ²² You then, also, now, indeed, will be having sorrow, yet I shall be seeing you again, and your heart shall be rejoicing, and your joy no one is taking away from you."

²⁸ I came out from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I am leaving the world and am going to the Father."

¹¹ And no longer am I in the world, and they are in the world, and I to Thee am coming. Holy Father, keep them in Thy name, in which Thou hast given them to Me, that they may be one, according as We are." ¹² When I was with them in the world, I kept those whom Thou hast given Me in Thy name, and I guard them, and not one of them perished, except the son of destruction, that the scripture may be fulfilled." ¹³ Yet now to Thee am I coming, and these things am I speaking in the world that they may be having My joy filled full in themselves."

⁹ And saying these things, while they are looking, He was lifted up, and a cloud took Him up from their eyes."

²¹ Whom heaven must indeed receive until the times of restoration of all which God speaks through the mouth of His holy prophets who are from the eon.

² Now, at their ministering to the Lord and fasting, the holy spirit said, "Sever, by all means, to Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them." ³ Then, fasting and praying and placing their hands on them, they dismiss them."

²³ Now, selecting elders for them according to the ecclesia, praying with fastings, they committed them to the Lord in Whom they had believed."

⁵ Do not deprive one another, except sometime it should be by agreement for a period, that you should gave leisure for prayer, and you may be the same again, lest Satan may be trying you because of your incontinence."

²⁷ in toil and labor, in vigils often, in famine and thirst, in fasts often, in cold and nakedness; "

¹⁹ My statutes shall you observe:your beast you shall not cause to copulate dissimilarly; your field you shall not sow dissimilarly, and a garment dissimilarly made of linsey-woolsey shall not come up on you.

¹¹ You shall not put on linsey-woolsey, wool and flax together.

¹⁶ Now what concurrence has a temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God, according as God said, that I will be making My home and will be walking in them, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people."

⁴ and they work, even they, with subtilty, and go, and feign to be ambassadors, and take old sacks for their asses, and wine-bottles, old, and rent, and bound up,

¹³ and these [are] the wine-bottles which we filled, new, and lo, they have rent; and these, our garments and our sandals, have become old, from the exceeding greatness of the way..

⁸³ Though I have become like an unused skin-bottle, hanging in smoke fumes, I have not forgotten Your statutes."

²⁶ And I have given to you a new heart, And a new spirit I give in your midst, And I have turned aside the heart of stone out of your flesh, And I have given to you a heart of flesh."

¹⁷ So that, if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: the primitive passed by. Lo! there has come new!"

⁴ Yet, it was because of the false brethren who were smuggled in, who came in by the way to spy out our freedom which we have in Christ Jesus, that they shall be enslaving us- "

¹² For, before the coming of some from James, he ate together with those of the nations. Yet when they came, he shrank back, and severed himself, fearing those of the Circumcision." ¹³ And the rest of the Jews also play the hypocrite with him, so that Barnabas also was led away with their hypocrisy." ¹⁴ But when I perceived that they are not correct in their attitude toward the truth of the evangel, I said to Cephas in front of all, "If you, being inherently a Jew, are living as the nations, and not as the Jews, how are you compelling the nations to be judaizing?

⁹ Yet now, knowing God, yet rather being known by God, how are you turning back again to the infirm and poor elements for which you want to slave again anew? ¹⁰ Days are you scrutinizing, and months and seasons and years." ¹¹ I fear for you, lest somehow I have toiled for you feignedly."

¹ For freedom Christ frees us! Stand firm, then, and be not again enthralled with the yoke of slavery." ² Lo! I, Paul, am saying to you that if you should be circumcising, Christ will benefit you nothing." ³ Now I am attesting again to every man who is circumcising, that he is a debtor to do the whole law." ⁴ Exempted from Christ were you who are being justified in law. You fall out of grace. ⁵ For we, in spirit, are awaiting the expectation of righteousness by faith." ⁶ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision is availing anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith, operating through love."

¹³ For not even they who are circumcising are maintaining law, but they want you to be circumcised that they should be boasting in that flesh of yours." ¹⁴ Now may it not be mine to be boasting, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world."

⁵ in circumcision the eighth day, of the race of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews, in relation to law, a Pharisee, ⁶ in relation to zeal, persecuting the ecclesia, in relation to the righteousness which is in law, becoming blameless." ⁷ But things which were gain to me, these I have deemed a forfeit because of Christ."

¹⁹ and not holding the Head, out of Whom the entire body, being supplied and united through the assimilation and ligaments, is growing in the growth of God." ²⁰ If, then, you died together with Christ from the elements of the world, why, as living in the world, are you subject to decrees:" ²¹ You should not be touching, nor yet tasting, nor yet coming into contact, ²² (which things are all for corruption from use), in accord with the directions and teachings of men? ²³ which are (having, indeed, an expression of wisdom in a willful ritual and humility and asceticism) not of any value toward the surfeiting of the flesh."

⁸ for bodily exercise is beneficial for a few things, yet devoutness is beneficial for all, having promise for the life which now is, and that which is impending."

⁸ For, blaming them, He is saying, "Lo! the days are coming,the Lord is saying, "And I shall be concluding with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah a new covenant, ⁹ Not in accord with the covenant which I make with their fathers In the day of My taking hold of their hand To be leading them out of the land of Egypt, Seeing that they do not remain in My covenant, And I neglect them,the Lord is saying, ¹⁰ For this is the covenant which I shall be covenanting with the house of Israel after those days,the Lord is saying: "Imparting My laws to their comprehension, On their hearts, also, shall I be inscribing them, And I shall be to them for a God, And they shall be to Me for a people." ¹¹ And by no means should each be teaching his fellow citizen, And each his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord!' For all shall be acquainted with Me, From their little to their great, ¹² For I shall be propitious to their injustices, And of their sins and their lawlessnesses should I under no circumstances still be reminded." ¹³ In saying "new,He has made the former old. Now that which is growing old and decrepit is near its disappearance."

⁹ By varied and strange teachings be not carried aside, for it ideal to be confirming the heart by grace, not by foods, by which those who walk were not benefitted." ¹⁰ We have an altar from which they have no right to be eating, who offer divine service in the tabernacle."

⁵ And He Who is sitting on the throne said, "Lo! New am I making all!And He is saying, "Write, for these sayings are faithful and true."

¹⁶ Thus said Yahweh:Stand you by the ways and see, and ask for paths of old, Where [is] this--the good way? and go you in it, And find rest for yourselves. And they say, `We do not go.'"

⁷ Yet in vain are they revering Me, teaching for teachings the directions of men." ⁸ For, leaving the precept of God, you are holding the tradition of men of the baptism of ewers and cups. And many such like things you are doing." ⁹ And He said to them, "Ideally are you repudiating the precept of God, that you should be keeping your tradition." ¹⁰ For Moses said, 'Honor your father and your mother,' and, He who is saying aught that is evil of father or mother, let him decease in death." ¹¹ Yet you are saying, 'If a man should be saying to father or mother, "A corban (which is an approach present) is whatsoever you may be benefitted by me,'" ¹² no longer are you letting him do anything for his father or his mother, ¹³ invalidating the word of God by your tradition which you give over. And many such like things you are doing."

¹¹ And he obtained the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which was in uncircumcision, for him to be the father of all those who are believing through uncircumcision, for righteousness to be reckoned to them, ¹² and the father of the Circumcision, not to those of the Circumcision only, but to those also who are observing the elements of the faith in the footprints of our father Abraham, in uncircumcision."

¹ Now faith is an assumption of what is being expected, a conviction concerning matters which are not being observed;" ² for in this the elders were testified to.

³⁹ And these all, being testified to through faith, are not requited with the promise of God concerning us"
