He who comes to me shall never hunger, and he who believes in me shall never thirst. ³⁶ But I said to you that you have seen me and yet do not believe. ³⁷ All that the Father gives me will come to me, and the one who comes to me I will by no means cast out. ³⁸ For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me. ³⁹ And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day. ⁴⁰ For this is the will of my Father, that every one who sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day." ⁴¹ The Jews then began to murmur about him, because he said, "I am the bread which came down from heaven." ⁴² They said, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know?

Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me. ⁴⁶ Not that any one has seen the Father except the one who is from God; he has seen the Father. ⁴⁷ Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has everlasting life. ⁴⁸ I am the bread of life. ⁴⁹ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. ⁵⁰ This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that a man may eat of it and not die. ⁵¹ I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh." ⁵² Then the Jews began to argue among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?" ⁵³ So Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. ⁵⁴ Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. ⁵⁵ For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. ⁵⁶ He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. ⁵⁷ As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on me will live because of me. ⁵⁸ This is the bread which came down from heaven, not as your fathers ate the manna and died. He who eats this bread will live for ever." ⁵⁹ This he said in the synagogue as he taught in Capernaum.

³ For Herod had laid hold of John and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife,

¹⁷ For Herod himself had sent and had John arrested, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; because he had married her.

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

¹⁴ Then Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and news of him went out through all the surrounding country.

³¹ Then he went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and he was teaching them on the Sabbath.

²⁴ For John had not yet been put in prison.

⁴³ After the two days he departed to Galilee.

⁵⁴ This was now the second sign that Jesus did when he had come from Judea to Galilee.

²³ And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades. For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.

²⁴ When they came to Capernaum, the collectors of the half-shekel tax went up to Peter and said, "Does not your teacher pay the temple tax?"

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

²³ He said to them, "Surely you will quote this proverb to me: 'Physician, heal yourself! Do here also in your own country what we have heard that you did in Capernaum.'"

³⁰ But passing through the midst of them, he went his way. ³¹ Then he went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and he was teaching them on the Sabbath.

¹² After this he went down to Capernaum, with his mother and his brothers and his disciples; and there they stayed for a few days.

⁴⁶ So he came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And at Capernaum there was an official whose son was sick.

¹⁷ got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.

²⁴ So when the people saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they also got into the boats and went to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

⁵⁹ This he said in the synagogue as he taught in Capernaum.

²² All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet:

¹⁵ and remained there until the death of Herod. And so was fulfilled what the Lord had spoken by the prophet, "Out of Egypt have I called my son."

²³ and he went and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that what was spoken by the Prophets might be fulfilled, "He shall be called a Nazarene."

¹⁷ This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah: "He took up our infirmities and bore our diseases."

¹⁷ This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah: ¹⁸ "Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased! I will put my Spirit upon him, and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles. ¹⁹ He will not quarrel or cry out; nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets. ²⁰ A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not quench, till he sends forth justice to victory; ²¹ and in his name will the Gentiles hope."

⁵⁴ But how then could the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must happen in this way?"

⁵⁶ But all this has taken place, that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled." Then all the disciples forsook him and fled.

³⁷ For I tell you that this scripture must be fulfilled in me, 'And he was numbered with transgressors'; for what is written about me has its fulfillment."

⁴⁴ Then he said to them, "These are my words which I spoke to you, while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms must be fulfilled."

²⁵ But this is to fulfill the word that is written in their law, 'They hated me without a cause.'

²⁸ After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, "I thirst."

³⁶ For these things were done that the scripture should be fulfilled, "Not one of his bones shall be broken." ³⁷ And again another scripture says, "They shall look on him whom they have pierced."

⁷⁸ through the tender mercy of our God, with which the sunrise from on high will visit us; ⁷⁹ to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace."

³² a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel."

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

¹³ But go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.' For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

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

⁹ He who has ears, let him hear."

¹¹ And he answered them, "To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.

²⁴ Another parable he put forth to them, saying: "The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field;

⁴⁷ "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was thrown into the sea and gathered fish of every kind;

¹ "Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.

³² I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."

² And he sent them out to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.

¹¹ 'Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near.' ¹² I tell you, it will be more tolerable on that day for Sodom than for that town. ¹³ "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. ¹⁴ But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you.

⁷ I tell you that in the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.

¹⁰ In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents."

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

³⁸ And Peter said to them, "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

¹⁹ Repent therefore, and turn again, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,

¹⁸ When they heard this, they quieted down and glorified God, saying, "So then, God has granted to the Gentiles also the repentance unto life."

³⁰ The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent,

²¹ testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

²⁰ but declared first to those at Damascus, then at Jerusalem and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God and perform deeds worthy of their repentance.

²⁵ with gentleness correcting those who are in opposition, if perhaps God will grant them repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth, ²⁶ and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will.

¹ Therefore let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,

¹⁶ and Jacob the father of Josnt the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called Christ. ¹⁷ So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the exile to Babylon to the Christ fourteen generations. ¹⁸ Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way: when his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit.

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

²⁹ And Jesus went on from there and passed along the Sea of Galilee. And he went up on the mountain, and sat down there.

¹⁸ And I tell you, that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.

¹⁶ And as he walked by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the Sea; for they were fishermen. ¹⁷ And Jesus said to them, "Come follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men." ¹⁸ And immediately they left their nets and followed him. ¹⁹ When he had gone a little farther from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets. ²⁰ And immediately he called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and followed him.

³¹ Then he departed from the region of Tyre, and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, through the region of the Decapolis.

¹ Now as the people pressed around him to hear the word of God, he was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret. ² And he saw two boats by the lake; but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets. ³ Then he got into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and asked him to put out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the people from the boat. ⁴ When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, "Put out into the deep, and let down your nets for a catch." ⁵ And Simon answered, "Master, we toiled all night and caught nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets." ⁶ And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their nets were breaking. ⁷ So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink. ⁸ When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!" ⁹ For he and all who were with him were astonished at the catch of fish which they had taken; ¹⁰ and so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men." ¹¹ So when they had brought their boats to land, they left everything and followed him.

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

⁴⁰ One of the two who heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. ⁴¹ He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (which means the Christ). ⁴² He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, "You are Simon son of John. You shall be called Cephas" (which means Peter).

¹ After this Jesus went to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, which is the Sea of Tiberias.

⁸ One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to him,

¹ After this Jesus showed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and in this way he showed himself:

²⁷ But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong, ²⁸ God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things, and the things that are not, to nullify the things that are, ²⁹ so that no flesh may boast before God.

²² But Jesus said to him, "Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead."

⁹ As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, "Follow me." And he rose and followed him.

²⁴ Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

²¹ Jesus said to him, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me."

¹⁷ And Jesus said to them, "Come follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men." ¹⁸ And immediately they left their nets and followed him.

¹⁴ As he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office, and he said to him, "Follow me." So he rose and followed him.

²⁷ After this he went out, and saw a tax collector, named Levi, sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, "Follow me."

⁵⁹ To another he said, "Follow me." But he said, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father."

⁴³ The next day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee. And he found Philip and said to him, "Follow me."

²⁶ If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there my servant will be also. If anyone serves me, him my Father will honor.

²² Jesus said to him, "If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow me."

²⁰ To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews; to those under the law I became as one under the lawthough not being myself under the lawso that I might win those under the law. ²¹ To those who are without law, I became as one without law, though not being without the law of God but under the law of Christ, so that I might win those who are without the law. ²² To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men, so that I might by all means save some.

¹⁶ But be that as it may, I did not burden you myself. Yet, crafty fellow that I am, I caught you by trickery!

³⁷ He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;

²⁷ Then Peter answered him, "Behold, we have left everything and followed you. What then shall we have?"

²⁸ Peter began to say to him, "See, we have left everything and followed you." ²⁹ Jesus said, "Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands, for my sake and for the gospel, ³⁰ who will not receive a hundredfold now in this timehouse and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and in the age to come, eternal life. ³¹ But many who are first will be last, and the last first."

²⁸ Then Peter said, "Behold, we have left all and followed you." ²⁹ So he said to them, "Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God, ³⁰ who will not receive many times more in this time, and in the age to come eternal life."

¹⁶ to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with flesh and blood,

¹ After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves.

²⁰ Then the mother of Zebedee's sons came to him with her sons and, kneeling down, asked something of him. ²¹ And he said to her, "What do you want?" She said to him, "Grant that these two sons of mine may sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom."

³⁷ He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled.

¹⁷ James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James, to whom he gave the name Boanerges, that is, "Sons of Thunder";

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

² Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together.

² He had James the brother of John put to death with the sword.

²⁰ And immediately he called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and followed him.

⁵⁹ To another he said, "Follow me." But he said, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father." ⁶⁰ Jesus said to him, "Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God."

²⁶ "If any one comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.

³³ So likewise, whoever of you does not give up all that he has cannot be my disciple.

¹⁶ From now on, therefore, we regard no one from a fleshly point of view; even though we once regarded Christ from a fleshly point of view, we regard him thus no longer.

¹⁶ When evening had come, they brought to him many who were demon-possessed. And he cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick. ¹⁷ This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah: "He took up our infirmities and bore our diseases."

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

⁷ And preach as you go, saying, 'The kingdom of heaven is at hand.' ⁸ Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.

⁵ the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

⁹ And he went on from there, and went into their synagogue.

¹⁹ when anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path.

⁵⁴ And coming to his own country he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, "Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works?

¹⁴ When Jesus went ashore he saw a great throng; and he had compassion on them, and healed their sick.

³⁰ Then great crowds came to him, bringing with them the lame, the maimed, the blind, the mute, and many others; and they laid them down at his feet, and he healed them. ³¹ So the multitude marveled when they saw the mute speaking, the maimed made whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel.

¹⁴ And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

³² Now at evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick and those who were demon-possessed. ³³ And the whole city was gathered together at the door. ³⁴ And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him.

³⁹ And he went throughout all Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and casting out demons.

¹⁰ For he had healed many, so that all who had diseases pressed upon him to touch him.

² And when the Sabbath had come, he began to teach in the synagogue. And many who heard him were astonished, saying, "Where did this man get these things? And what wisdom is this which is given to him, that such mighty works are performed by his hands!

⁶ And he marveled because of their unbelief. Then he went around the villages teaching.

¹⁵ And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified by all. ¹⁶ And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read. ¹⁷ And the book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. And he opened the book, and found the place where it was written: ¹⁸ "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach the good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed,

⁴⁰ When the sun was setting, all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to him; and he laid his hands on every one of them and healed them. ⁴¹ And demons also came out of many, crying, "You are the Son of God!" But he rebuked them, and would not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.

⁴³ but he said to them, "I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other cities also, because I was sent for this purpose." ⁴⁴ And he was preaching in the synagogues of Judea.

¹⁷ One day as he was teaching, there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present for him to heal.

¹⁷ And he came down with them and stood on a level place with a crowd of his disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and from the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him and be healed of their diseases,

²² He answered them, "Go and tell John what you have seen and heard: the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have the good news preached to them.

¹ Soon afterward, he went on through every city and village, preaching and bringing the good news of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with him,

¹¹ But when the crowds learned it, they followed him; and he welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and healed those who had need of healing.

⁹ Heal the sick there and say to them, 'The kingdom of God has come near to you.'

¹⁰ Now he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath.

¹ One day as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes, together with the elders, came up to him

¹ After this Jesus went about in Galilee; he would not go about in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

²⁰ Jesus answered him, "I have spoken openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all the Jews come together, and I have said nothing in secret.

¹⁵ so that they even carried out the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and pallets, so that as Peter came by at least his shadow might fall on some of them. ¹⁶ The people also gathered from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing the sick and those afflicted with unclean spirits, and they were all healed.

¹³ But Ananias answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much harm he has done to your saints at Jerusalem; ¹⁴ and here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name." ¹⁵ But the Lord said to him, "Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel; ¹⁶ for I will show him how much he must suffer for the sake of my name." ¹⁷ So Ananias departed and entered the house. And after laying his hands on him said, "Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road by which you were coming, has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit." ¹⁸ And immediately there fell from his eyes something like scales, and he regained his sight. And he got up and was baptized, ¹⁹ and he took food and was strengthened. Now for several days he was with the disciples who were at Damascus. ²⁰ And immediately he began to proclaim Jesus in the synagogues, saying, "He is the Son of God." ²¹ All those who heard him were amazed, and said, "Is this not he who made havoc in Jerusalem of those who called on this name, and who had come here for the purpose of bringing them bound before the chief priests?" ²² But Saul increased all the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus by proving that this Jesus is the Christ. ²³ When many days had passed, the Jews plotted to kill him, ²⁴ but their plot became known to Saul. They were watching the gates day and night, to kill him; ²⁵ but his disciples took him by night and let him down through an opening in the wall, lowering him in a basket. ²⁶ When he came to Jerusalem, he tried to join the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple. ²⁷ But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles. And he declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus. ²⁸ And he was with them moving about freely in Jerusalem, speaking out boldly in the name of the Lord. ²⁹ And he was talking and arguing with the Hellenistic Jews; but they were seeking to kill him. ³⁰ But when the brethren learned of it, they brought him down to Caesarea and sent him off to Tarsus. ³¹ So the church throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria enjoyed peace and was built up; and going on in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, it continued to increase. ³² Now as Peter went through all those regions, he came down also to the saints who lived at Lydda. ³³ There he found a man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden for eight years and was paralyzed. ³⁴ Peter said to him, "Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you; get up and make your bed." Immediately he got up. ³⁵ And all who lived at Lydda and Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord. ³⁶ Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha (which is translated Dorcas). She was full of good works and acts of charity. ³⁷ And at that time she fell sick and died; and when they had washed her, they laid her body in an upper room. ³⁸ Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, having heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him, imploring him, "Please come to us without delay." ³⁹ So Peter rose and went with them. And when he arrived, they took him to the upper room. All the widows stood beside him, weeping and showing the tunics and other garments that Dorcas made while she was with them. ⁴⁰ But Peter sent them all out and knelt down and prayed; then turning to the body, he said, "Tabitha, arise." And she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up. ⁴¹ And he gave her his hand and raised her up. Then calling the saints and widows he presented her alive. ⁴² It became known all over Joppa, and many believed in the Lord. ⁴³ And Peter stayed for many days in Joppa with a tanner named Simon.

³⁸ how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how he went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.

⁴ And every Sabbath he was reasoning in the synagogue, and trying to persuade Jews and Greeks.

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

¹⁵ And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach good news!"

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

⁶ and saying, "Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, in terrible distress."

¹³ Then to the centurion Jesus said, "Go; be it done for you as you have believed." And his servant was healed at that very hour. ¹⁴ When Jesus come into Peter's house, he saw his mother-in-law lying sick with a fever. ¹⁵ He touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she rose and served him. ¹⁶ When evening had come, they brought to him many who were demon-possessed. And he cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick.

²⁸ When he had come to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, two demon-possessed men met him, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no one could pass that way.

² And behold, they brought to him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And when Jesus saw their faith he said to the paralytic, "Take heart, my son; your sins are forgiven." ³ And behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, "This man is blaspheming!" ⁴ But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, "Why do you think evil in your hearts? ⁵ For which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Rise and walk'? ⁶ But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins"he then said to the paralytic"Rise, take up your bed and go home." ⁷ And he rose and went home. ⁸ When the crowds saw it, they were afraid, and they glorified God, who had given such authority to men.

²⁶ And the report of this went through all that region.

³¹ But they went out and spread the news about him all over that region. ³² As they were going out, behold, a mute and demon-possessed man was brought to him.

²² Then they brought to him a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute, and he healed him, so that the mute man both spoke and saw.

¹ At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus,

²² And behold, a Canaanite woman from that region came out and cried to him, "Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed."

¹⁵ "Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is an epileptic and he suffers terribly; for often he falls into the fire, and often into the water.

¹⁸ And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him, and the boy was cured from that moment.

²⁸ And at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee.

³² Now at evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick and those who were demon-possessed.

³ Then they came to him, bringing a paralytic carried by four men.

² And when he had come out of the boat, there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, ³ who lived among the tombs; and no one could bind him any more, not even with a chain, ⁴ for he had often been bound with shackles and chains. But the chains he wrenched apart, and the shackles he broke in pieces; and no one had the strength to subdue him. ⁵ Night and day among the tombs and on the mountains he was always crying out, and cutting himself with stones. ⁶ And when he saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and worshipped him. ⁷ And crying out with a loud voice, he said, "What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore you by God, do not torment me." ⁸ For he had said to him, "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!" ⁹ Then Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" And he replied, "My name is Legion, for we are many." ¹⁰ And he begged him eagerly not to send them out of the country. ¹¹ Now a large herd of swine was feeding there on the hillside. ¹² So all the demons begged him, "Send us to the swine, that we may enter them." ¹³ So he gave them permission. And the unclean spirits came out, and entered the swine; and the herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and were drowned in the sea. ¹⁴ So those who fed the swine fled, and told it in the city and in the country. And people went out to see what it was that had happened. ¹⁵ And they came to Jesus, and saw the man who had been possessed sitting there, clothed and in his right mind, the man who had had the legion; and they were afraid. ¹⁶ And those who had seen it told the people what had happened to the demon-possessed man, and about the swine. ¹⁷ Then they began to plead with Jesus to depart from their region. ¹⁸ And as he was getting into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed begged him that he might be with him.

² This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.

³³ And in the synagogue there was a man who had the spirit of an unclean demon. And he cried out with a loud voice, ³⁴ "Ha! What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you arethe Holy One of God!" ³⁵ But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!" And when the demon had thrown him down in the midst, he came out of him without doing him any harm.

¹⁵ But the report went around concerning him all the more; and great multitudes came together to hear and to be healed by him of their infirmities.

²⁷ When he stepped out on land, there met him a man from the city who had demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes, and he lived not in a house but in the tombs. ²⁸ When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him, and said with a loud voice, "What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, do not torment me!" ²⁹ For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For many times it had seized him, and he was kept under guard, bound with chains and shackles; and he broke the bonds and was driven by the demon into the wilderness. ³⁰ Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" And he said, "Legion"; because many demons had entered him. ³¹ And they begged him repeatedly not to command them to go into the Abyss. ³² Now a large herd of swine was feeding there on the hillside; and they begged him to let them enter them. So he gave them permission. ³³ Then the demons came out of the man and entered the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned. ³⁴ When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country. ³⁵ Then people went out to see what had happened, and they came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid. ³⁶ Those who had seen it told them how he who had been demon-possessed was healed. ³⁷ Then all the people of the surrounding region of the Gerasenes asked him to depart from them, for they were seized with great fear. So he got into the boat and returned.

²¹ Others said, "These are not the sayings of one who has a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?"

²³ and they sent the following letter with them: "The apostles and the brethren who are elders, to the brethren in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia who are from the Gentiles, greetings.

⁴¹ And he went through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches.

¹ Seeing the crowds, he went up on a mountain, and when he sat down his disciples came to him.

¹ When he came down from the mountain, great crowds followed him.

¹⁵ Jesus, aware of this, withdrew from there. And many followed him, and he healed them all,

² And large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.

⁷ Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed; also from Judea ⁸ and Jerusalem and Idumea and beyond the Jordan and from around Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they heard how many things he was doing, came to him.

²⁰ And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him; and all men marveled.

¹⁹ And all the crowd sought to touch him, for power came from him and healed them all.
