¹ And again he began to teach by the sea: and a great crowd was gathered together to him, so that he, having gone into the ship, sat in the sea; and all the crowd was by the sea upon land. ² And he taught them in parables many things, and said to them in his teaching, ³ Hear ye; behold, he sowing went out to sow: ⁴ And it was in sowing some truly fell by the way, and the flying things of heaven came and ate it down. ⁵ And other fell upon stony places, where it had not much earth; and quickly it sprang forth, for it had no deepness of earth: ⁶ And the sun having risen, it was parched up; and because it had no root, it was dried up. ⁷ And other fell in thorns, and the thorns came up, and choked it, and it gave no fruit. ⁸ And other fell in good earth, and gave fruit coming up and increasing; and one brought thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred. ⁹ And he said to them, He having ears to hear, let him hear. ¹⁰ And when he was alone, they about him with the twelve asked him of the parable. ¹¹ And he said to them, To you has it been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but to those without, all are in parables: ¹² That seeing they might see, and not know; and hearing they might hear, and not understand; lest they turn back, and their sins be remitted to them. ¹³ And he says to them, Know ye not this parable? and how will ye know all parables? ¹⁴ He sowing sows the word. ¹⁵ And these are they by the way, where the word is sown; and when they hear, quickly comes Satan, and takes away the word sown in their hearts. ¹⁶ And these are likewise they sown upon stony places; who, when they hear, quickly with joy receive it; ¹⁷ And have no root in themselves, but are temporary; then pressure having been or expulsion for the word, quickly are they scandalized. ¹⁸ And these are they sown in thorns; these are they hearing the word. ¹⁹ And the cares of this time, and the deceit of riches, and eager desires about remaining things, coming in, choke the word, and it is unfruitful. ²⁰ And these are they sown on good earth; who hear the word, and receive, and bear fruit, one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred. ²¹ And he said to them, Much less the light comes that it be set under a bushel, or under a bed; that it be not set upon a candlestick. ²² For not anything is hid, which should not be manifested; neither was concealed, but that it should come clear. ²³ Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear. ²⁴ And he said to them, See ye how ye hear: with what measure ye measure, shall be measured to you: and to you hearing, shall be added. ²⁵ For whoever should have, to him shall be given: and whoever has not, also what he has shall be taken away from him. ²⁶ And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed upon the earth; ²⁷ And he sleep, and should rise night and day, and the seed should sprout, and be raised; how, he knows not. ²⁸ For the earth bears fruit spontaneously; first the grass, then the ear, then the full wheat in the ear. ²⁹ But when the fruit should yield, quickly he sends the sickle, for the harvest is brought forward. ³⁰ And he said, To what should we liken the kingdom of God? or in what parable should we hold it forth? ³¹ As a kernel of mustard, which, when it be sown in the earth, is smaller than all seeds upon the earth: ³² And when it be sown, it comes up and is greater than all vegetables, and makes great young shoots; so that the flying things of heaven can encamp under its shadow. ³³ And with many such parables spake he the word to them, as they were able to hear. ³⁴ And without a parable spake he not to them: and apart, he solved all to his disciples. ³⁵ And he says to them in that day, being evening, Let us go beyond. ³⁶ And having let the crowd go, they receive him as he was in the ship.

³ And he spake to them many things in parables, saying, Behold, he, the sower, went forth to sow.

¹⁰ And the disciples having come near, said to him, Why speakest thou to them in parables?

³⁴ All these things spake Jesus in parables to the crowds; and without a parable spake he not to them. ³⁵ So that that spoken by the prophet might be filled up; saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will declare things having been hid from the foundation of the world.

²³ And having called them, in parables spake he to them, How can Satan cast out Satan

²⁶ And when the grass sprouted up and made fruit, then appeared the tares also.

⁹ And he said to them, He having ears to hear, let him hear.

¹⁴ He sowing sows the word.

²⁶ And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed upon the earth; ²⁷ And he sleep, and should rise night and day, and the seed should sprout, and be raised; how, he knows not. ²⁸ For the earth bears fruit spontaneously; first the grass, then the ear, then the full wheat in the ear. ²⁹ But when the fruit should yield, quickly he sends the sickle, for the harvest is brought forward.

¹⁴ And having called all the crowd, he said to them, Hear me, all ye, and do ye understand: ¹⁵ There is nothing from without a man, entering into him, which can defile him: but things coming out from him, these are the things polluting the man.

⁵ The sower went out to sow his seed; and in his sowing, some truly fell by the way, and was trodden down, and the fowls of heaven devoured it. ⁶ And other fell upon a rock; and having brought forth, was dried up, for it had no moisture. ⁷ And other fell in the midst of thorns; and the thorns grew together and choked it. ⁸ And other fell upon good earth; and having brought forth, made fruit, a hundredfold.

¹⁴ And Peter, having stood with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Men Jews, and all ye dwelling in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and hear ye my words:

⁶ I have planted, Apollos watered; but God increased. ⁷ So that neither he planting is anything, neither he watering; but God increasing. ⁸ And he planting and he watering are one: and each shall receive his own reward according to his own labor. ⁹ For we are workers together with God: the agriculture of God, ye are the building of God.

¹ For this ought we to hold above measure to the things heard, lest we slip away. ² For if the word spoken by angels was firm, and every transgression and bad instruction received the just payment of reward; ³ How shall we escape, having neglected such great salvation; which at the beginning taken to be spoken by the Lord, by them having heard was made firm to us;

¹ Let us therefore fear, lest a solemn promise being left to come into his rest, any of you should seem to have failed. ² For we also were announced of the good news, as well as they: but the word of the report profited them not, not being mixed with faith to them having heard.

¹⁹ Wherefore, my dearly beloved brethren, let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger: ²⁰ For man s anger works not the justice of God. ²¹ Wherefore having put away all sordid avarice, and excess of wickedness, in meekness receive the implanted word, able to save your souls. ²² And be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

¹ Therefore setting aside all wickedness, and all artifice, and dissimulation; and envies, and all calumnies, ² As new born babes, long for the sincere milk pertaining to the word, that ye might be nourished with it: ³ If ye have tasted that the Lord is good.

¹⁵ He having ears to hear, let him hear.

⁹ He having ears to hear let him hear.

¹⁰ And having called the crowd, he said to them, Hear ye, and understand.

³ Hear ye; behold, he sowing went out to sow:

²³ Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear. ²⁴ And he said to them, See ye how ye hear: with what measure ye measure, shall be measured to you: and to you hearing, shall be added.

¹⁸ See therefore how ye hear: for whoever should have, shall be given him; and whoever should not have, and what he seems to have shall be taken away from him.

⁶ He having ears, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

¹³ He having ears, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

²² He having ears, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

²⁰ He going with the wise, and he is wise: and the companion of the foolish shall become evil.

¹⁰ And the disciples having come near, said to him, Why speakest thou to them in parables? ¹¹ And having answered, he said to them, For to you it was given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but to them it was not given. ¹² For whoever has shall be given to him, and he shall have in excess; and whoever has not, also what he has shall be taken away from him. ¹³ For this I speak to them in parables: for seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. ¹⁴ And the prophecy of Esaias is filled up in them, saying, In hearing shall ye hear, and not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive. ¹⁵ For the heart of this people has been thickened, and with their ears have they heard heavily, and their eyes have they closed; lest perhaps they should see with the eyes, and hear with the ears, and understand with the heart, and turn back, and I should heal them. ¹⁶ But happy your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. ¹⁷ For verily I say to you, that many prophets and just desired eagerly to see what ye see, and saw not; and to hear what ye hear, and heard not.

³⁶ Then Jesus having dismissed the crowds, went into the house; and his disciples came to him, saying, Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field.

³⁴ And without a parable spake he not to them: and apart, he solved all to his disciples.

¹⁷ And when he came into the house from the crowd, his disciples asked him of the parable.

⁹ And his disciples asked him, saying, What may this parable be? ¹⁰ And he said, To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: and to the rest in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand. ¹¹ And this is the parable: The seed is the word of God. ¹² And they by the way are they hearing; then comes the devil, and takes away the word from their heart, lest having believed, they should be saved. ¹³ And they upon the rock, who, when they hear, with joy receive the word; and they have no root, who for a time believe, and in time of trial fly away. ¹⁴ And that having fallen into thorns, and they are they having heard, and with cares and riches, and pleasures of life going forth, are choked, and bring not to maturity. ¹⁵ And that in the good earth, they are they which, in a fair and good heart, having heard, keep the word, and bring forth fruit with patience.

²⁵ In that time Jesus having answered, said, I acknowledge to thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for thou hast hidden these things from the wise and intelligent, and revealed them to children.

¹¹ And having answered, he said to them, For to you it was given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but to them it was not given. ¹² For whoever has shall be given to him, and he shall have in excess; and whoever has not, also what he has shall be taken away from him. ¹³ For this I speak to them in parables: for seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

¹⁶ But happy your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.

¹⁷ And Jesus, having answered, said to him, Happy art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood has not revealed to thee, but my Father, he in the heavens.

¹⁰ And he said, To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: and to the rest in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.

²¹ In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I will acknowledge to thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and intelligent, and hast revealed them to babes: yes Father, for so was it benevolence before thee. ²² All things were delivered me by my Father: and none knows who is the Son, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and to whomsoever the Son would wish to reveal. ²³ And having turned to the disciples apart he said, Happy the eyes seeing what ye see: ²⁴ For I say to you, that many prophets and kings wished to behold what ye see, and saw not; and to hear what ye hear, and heard not.

⁷ For who distinguishes thee? and what hast thou which thou didst not receive? and if thou also didst receive, why dost thou boast, as not having received?

¹² For what to me also to judge them without? do ye yourselves judge them within ¹³ And them without God judges. And take ye away evil from yourselves.

⁶ For God, having spoken light to shine out of darkness, who shone in our hearts, to the enlightening of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

⁹ Having made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his benevolence which he purposed in himself:

⁴ But God, being rich in mercy, by his much love which he loved us, ⁵ And we being dead in faults, he made alive together with Christ, (by grace are ye saved;) ⁶ And raised together, and seated together in heavenlies in Christ Jesus: ⁷ That he might show in times coming the surpassing riches of his grace in kindness to us in Christ Jesus. ⁸ For by grace are ye saved through faith; and this not of you: the gift of God: ⁹ Not of works, lest any one should boast. ¹⁰ For we are his work, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.,

⁵ In wisdom walk toward them without, purchasing the time.

¹² That ye should walk becomingly to them without, and have need of nothing.

⁷ And he must also have good testimony from them without;lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the accuser.

³ For once we also were unwise disobedient, deceived, being slaves to eager desires and various pleasures, living in vexation and envy, hated, and hating one another. ⁴ And when the kindness and philanthropy of our Saviour God was made evident, ⁵ Not of works in justice which we did; but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and the renovation of the Holy Spirit; ⁶ Which he poured out upon us richly by Jesus Christ our Saviour; ⁷ That justified by his grace, we might be heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

¹⁶ Be not led astray, my dearly beloved brethren. ¹⁷ Every good donation and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom not one change, or shadow of turning. ¹⁸ Having willed he brought forth by the word of truth, for us to be some first fruit of his creatures.

²⁰ And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding, and we know him true, and we are in him true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

⁴ And Jehovah gave not to you an heart to know, and eyes to see, and ears to hear, even to this day.

⁹ And he will say, Go, and say to this people, Hearing, hear ye, and ye shall not understand; and seeing, see ye, and ye shall not know. ¹⁰ Make the heart of this people fat and their ears heavy, and blind their eyes, lest they shall see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and their heart shall understand and turn back and be healed to them.

¹⁸ They will not know, and they will not discern: he spread over their eyes from seeing; their heart from considering.

²¹ Hear now this, O foolish people, and no heart; eyes to them and they will not see; and ears to them, and they will not hear:

¹⁸ Hearing, I heard Ephraim being thrust away: Thou didst correct me, and I shall be corrected as a calf not being taught: turn me back and I shall be turned back, for thou Jehovah my God. ¹⁹ For after my being turned back I was comforted; and after my knowing I struck upon the thigh: I was ashamed and also disgraced for I bore the reproach of my youth. ²⁰ Is Ephraim a precious son to me? if a child of delights? for whenever my speaking against him, remembering, I shall remember him yet; for this the bowels were put in motion to me compassionating, I will compassionate him, says Jehovah.

² Son of man, thou art dwelling in the midst of a house of contradiction, which to them eyes to see, and they saw not: ears to them to hear, and they heard not: for they are a house of contradiction.

²⁷ And in the unjust one turning back from his injustice which he did; and he will do judgment and justice, he shall save his soul alive. ²⁸ And he will see and turn back from all his transgressions which he did, living, he shall live; he shall not die. ²⁹ And the house of Israel said, The way of Jehovah will not make even. Will not my ways make even, O house of Israel, shall not your way not make even? ³⁰ For this I will judge you, O house of Israel, each according to his ways, says the Lord Jehovah: Turn back and withdraw from all your transgressions; and iniquity shall not be to you for a stumbling block. ³¹ Cast away from you all your transgressions which ye transgressed against me, and make to you a new heart and a new spirit: and wherefore will ye die, O house of Israel? ³² For I shall not delight in the death of him dying, says the Lord Jehovah: and turn ye back and live.

³⁷ And he having done so many signs before them, they did not believe in him: ³⁸ That the word of Esaias the prophet might be completed, which he spake, Lord, who believed our report? and to whom was the arm of the Lord revealed? ³⁹ Therefore they could not believe, for Esaias said again, ⁴⁰ He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart: lest they see with the eyes, and understand with the heart, and should turn back, and I should heal them. ⁴¹ These said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.

¹⁹ Therefore repent, and return, for your sins to be wiped out, so that times of refreshment might come from the face of the Lord;

²⁵ And being at variance with one another, they were let go, Paul having said one word, That well spake the Holy Spirit by Esaias the prophet to our fathers, ²⁶ Saying, Go to this people, and say, By hearing ye shall hear, and not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and ye should not perceive: ²⁷ For the heart of this people was thickened, and with ears heard they heavily, and their eyes they closed; lest they should see with the eyes, and with ears should hear, and with the heart they should understand, and turn back, and I should heal them.

⁸ (As has been written, God gave them the spirit of mortal pain, eyes not to see, and earn not to hear;) even to this day. ⁹ And David says, Let their table be for a snare, and for booty, and for a stumblingblock, and for a retribution to them: ¹⁰ Let their eyes be darkened not to see, and let them bend their back always.

²⁵ In meekness instructing them being in a contrary state; lest perhaps God may give them repentance to the acknowledgment of the truth;

⁶ And having fallen, again to renew to repentance; crucifying to themselves the Son of God, and exposing to ignominy.

¹⁸ Therefore hear ye the parable of him sowing. ¹⁹ Every one hearing, and not understanding, the evil one comes, and carries off that sown in his heart. This is he having sown by the way. ²⁰ And he having sown upon rocky places, this is he hearing the word, and quickly with joy receiving it; ²¹ And has no root in himself, but is for a time; and there being pressure or expulsion for the word, straightly is he offended. ²² And he having sown among thorns, this is he hearing the word; and the care of this time, and the deceit of riches, choke the word, and it is unfruitful. ²³ But he having sown upon good earth is he hearing the word, and understanding; who indeed bears fruit, and who makes truly a hundred, and who sixty, and who thirty.

⁵¹ Jesus says to them, Have ye understood all these? They say to him, Yes, Lord. ⁵² And he said to them, Therefore every scribe, having been a disciple in the kingdom of the heavens, is like to a man, master of a house, who casts out from his treasure new things and old.

¹⁵ And Peter, having answered, said to him, Explain to us this parable. ¹⁶ And Jesus said, Are ye also yet destitute of understanding? ¹⁷ Do ye not yet understand, that everything going into the mouth proceeds to the belly, and is cast out in the privy?

⁸ And Jesus having known, said to them, Why reason ye among yourselves, O ye of little faith, because ye have taken no loaves ⁹ Do ye not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of five thousand, and how many baskets ye took?

¹⁷ And when he came into the house from the crowd, his disciples asked him of the parable. ¹⁸ And he says, So are ye also without understanding? Do ye not perceive, that anything from without entering into a man, cannot pollute him

²⁵ And he said to them, O ye unwise, and slow in heart to believe in all things which the prophets spake:

¹ And I, brethren, was not able to speak to you as spiritual, but as carnal, as babes in Christ. ² I have given you milk to drink, and not food; for ye were not able, but neither now are ye yet able.

¹¹ Of whom great is the word to us, and difficult of interpretation to speak, since ye have been sluggish in the hearing. ¹² For also ye ought to be teachers for the time, again ye have need for some one to teach you the elements of the beginning of the sayings of God; and have become those having need of milk, and not of firm food. ¹³ For every one partaking of milk is inexperienced in the word of justice: for he is a child. ¹⁴ And firm food is of the perfected, of them by habit having the senses exercised for the separation of good and evil.

¹⁹ I, if as many as I love, I rebuke and correct: be emulous therefore, and repent.

²⁰ Happy ye sowing upon all waters, sending the foot of the ox and the ass.

³⁷ And he having answered, said to them, He sowing the good seed is the Son of man:

² And quickly many were gathered together, so as no more to have room, neither at the door: and he spake the word to them.

² As they delivered to us, who from the beginning being eyewitnesses, and servants of the word;

¹¹ And this is the parable: The seed is the word of God.

⁴ Truly therefore the dispersed passed through announcing good news the word.

⁵ By the hope laid up for you in the heavens, which ye heard before in the word of the truth of the good news; ⁶ Being present to you as also in all the world; and is bearing fruit, as also in you, from the day which ye heard and knew the grace of God in truth:

²³ Begotten again, not of corrupted seed, but uncorrupted, by the word of God, living and remaining forever. ²⁴ For all flesh as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass dried up, and the flower fell out: ²⁵ And the word of the Lord remains forever. And this is the word having announced good news to you.

¹⁴ And Lot will go out, and will speak to his sons-in-law, having taken his daughters, and he will say, Rise ye up, go forth out of this place; for Jehovah destroys the city: and he will be as laughing in the eyes of his sons-in-law.

⁶ And the day will be and the sons of God will come to stand before God, and also the adversary will come in the midst of them. ⁷ And Jehovah will say to the adversary, From whence wilt thou come? And the adversary will answer Jehovah, and say, From running to and fro in the earth, and from walking about in it. ⁸ And Jehovah will say to the adversary, Didst thou set thy heart to my servant Job? for none like him in the earth; a man blameless and upright, fearing God and departing from evil. ⁹ And the adversary will answer Yehovah and say, Did Job fear God gratuitously? ¹⁰ Didst thou, not hedge about him and about his house, and about all that is to him from round about? Thou didst bless the work of his hands, and his possession spread abroad in the earth. ¹¹ But send forth now thy band and tough upon all which is to him, if he will not bless thee upon thy face. ¹² And Jehovah will say to the adversary, Behold, all that is to him in thy hand: only upon him thou shalt not send. forth thy hand. And the adversary will go forth from the face of Jehovah.

¹ Who believed in our report? and to whom was the arm of Jehovah uncovered?

¹ And he will cause me to see Joshua the great priest standing before the messenger of Jehovah, and the adversary standing upon his right hand for his adversary.

¹⁰ Then says Jesus to him, Retire, Satan; for it has been written, The Lord thy God shalt thou worship, and him alone shalt thou serve.

⁵ And they, not having heeded, departed, one truly to his own field, and one to his traffic:

⁴ And it was in sowing some truly fell by the way, and the flying things of heaven came and ate it down.

¹⁸ And from one they all began to conciliate. The first said to him, I bought a field, and have necessity to go and see it: I ask thee, have me pardoned. ¹⁹ And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I ask thee, have me pardoned.

³ And Peter said, Ananias, wherefore filled Satan thy heart, for thee to belie the Holy Spirit, and separate from the price of the farm

¹⁸ And certain of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers deliberated with him. And certain said, What may this idle, talkative man wish to say? and others, He seems to be a declarer of strange demons: because he announced to them good news, and the rising up. ¹⁹ And having taken him, they brought upon Mars' hill, saying, Can we know what this new teaching is, spoken by thee? ²⁰ For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears: we wish therefore to know what these things may be.

³² And having heard of the rising up of the dead, they treated with mockery; and said, We will hear thee again concerning this.

¹⁴ And Paul being about to open the mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If therefore it were truly any injustice or wicked, criminal action, O Jews, against the word, I should have borne with you: ¹⁵ But if it is a question of the word, and names, and law, according to you, see ye yourselves; for I will not be judge of these. ¹⁶ And he drave them away from the judgment seat. ¹⁷ And all the Greeks having taken Sosthenes, ruler of the synagogue, beat before the judgment seat. And,Gallio cared for none of these.

¹⁹ But had certain questions of their own superstition against him, and of a certain Jesus, having died, whom Paul declared living. ²⁰ And I doubting at the question concerting this, said, If he be willing to go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things.

³¹ And having withdrawn, they spake to one another, saying, This man does nothing worthy of death or of bonds. ³² And Agrippa said to Festus, This man could have been loosed, if he had not appealed to Caesar.

¹¹ That we might not be taken advantage of by Satan: for we are not ignorant of his inventions.

³ And if also our good news is hid, in the lost is it hid: ⁴ In whom the God of this world blinded the minds of the unbelieving, so that the enlightening of the good news of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, does not enlighten them.

⁹ Whose arrival is according to the energy of Satan in all power and signs and wonders of falsehood,

¹ For this ought we to hold above measure to the things heard, lest we slip away.

¹⁶ Lest any fornicator, or profane, as Esau, who for one act of' eating sold his primogeniture.

⁸ Be abstemious, watch; for your adversary the accuser, as a roaring lion, walks around, seeking whom he might swallow down:

⁹ And the great dragon was cast out, the old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, he deceiving the whole habitable globe: he was cast into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

² And he seized the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, ³ And he cast him into the abyss, and shut him up, and affixed a seal above him, that he should no more deceive the nations, until the thousand years be finished: and after these things he must be loosed a little time.

⁷ And when the thousand years should be finished, Satan shall be loosed from his prison,

¹⁰ And the devil deceiving them was cast into the lake of fire and sulphur, where are the wild beast and false prophet, and they shall be tortured day and night for ever and ever.

³¹ And they will come to thee, according to the coming of the people, and they will sit before thee my people, and they heard thy words, and they did them not: for they making loves with their mouth, their heart went after their plunder. ³² And behold thee to them as song of loves of a fair voice, playing well an instrument: and they heard thy words and did them not

¹⁹ And one scribe, coming near, said to him, Teacher, I will follow thee wherever thou goest. ²⁰ And Jesus says to him, The foxes have dens, and the fowls of heaven occupy nests; but the Son of man has not where he might recline the head.

²⁰ And he having sown upon rocky places, this is he hearing the word, and quickly with joy receiving it; ²¹ And has no root in himself, but is for a time; and there being pressure or expulsion for the word, straightly is he offended.

²⁰ For Herod feared John, knowing him a just and holy man, and he observed him: and having heard him, did many things, and heard him cheerfully.

¹⁷ And he going in the way, one running and having fallen upon his knees, asked him, Good teacher, What shall I do that I might inherit eternal life ¹⁸ And Jesus said to him, Why sayest thou me good? none good, except the one God. ¹⁹ Thou knowest the commands: Thou shouldst not commit adultery; Thou shouldst not kill; Thou shouldst not steal; Thou shouldst not bear false testimony; Thou shouldst not defraud; Honour thy father and mother. ²⁰ And he, having answered, said to him, O teacher, all these have I watched from my youth. ²¹ And Jesus having looked upon him, loved him, and said to him, One thing is wanting to thee retire; whatever thou hast, sell, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, having taken up the cross. ²² And he, being sad at the word, went away being grieved: for he had many possessions.

³⁵ He was a burning and manifest light: and ye wished to rejoice for a time in his light.

¹³ And Simon also himself believed: and having been immersed, he was persovering with Philip, beholding the signs and great powers having been, they were astonished.

¹⁸ And Simon having seen that by putting on of hands of the sent the Holy Spirit is given, he brought money to them, ¹⁹ Saying, Give me also this power, that upon whomsoever I put hands, he might receive the Holy Spirit. ²⁰ And Peter said to him, May thy silver be for ruin with thee, for thou thoughtest the gift of God to be purchased for money. ²¹ No portion is to thee, nor lot, in this word: for thy heart is not upright before God.

²⁵ And he discoursing of justice, and temperance, and judgment about to be, Felix being terrified, answered, Having now, go; having taken time, I will recall thee. ²⁶ And at the same time also hoping that money should be given him by Paul, so that he might loose him: wherefore also sending for him more frequently, he conversed with him.

²⁸ And Agrippa said to Paul, In a little thou persuadest me to be a Christian.

²⁸ For ye shall say, Why shall we pursue after him and the root of the word was found in me?

⁸ For what the hope of the profane one if he shall plunder? for God shall draw out his soul. ⁹ Will God hear his cry when straits shall come upon him? ¹⁰ If he will delight himself upon the Almighty? will he call upon God in all time?

⁶ And happy is he who shall not give cause of offence in me.

³¹ For this I say to you, All sin and blasphemy shall be let go to men; but the blasphemy of the Spirit shall not be let go to men.

²¹ And has no root in himself, but is for a time; and there being pressure or expulsion for the word, straightly is he offended.

⁹ Then shall they deliver you to pressure, and they shall kill you: and ye shall be hated by all nations, for my name. ¹⁰ And then shall many be offended, and they shall deliver up one another, and they shall hate one another.

⁵ And other fell upon stony places, where it had not much earth; and quickly it sprang forth, for it had no deepness of earth: ⁶ And the sun having risen, it was parched up; and because it had no root, it was dried up.

¹⁰ And every one who shall say a word against the Son of man, it shall be remitted to him: and to him blaspheming against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be remitted.

³¹ Then said Jesus to the Jews having believed him, If ye remain in my word, ye are truly my disciples.

² Every branch in me not bearing fruit he takes away: and every one bearing fruit, he cleanses it, that it might bear more fruit. ³ Already are ye clean, through the word which I have spoken to you. ⁴ Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, if it remain not in the vine; so neither ye, if ye remain not in me. ⁵ I am the vine, ye the branches: he remaining in me, and I in him, he bears much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. ⁶ If any remain not in me, he was cast forth as the branch, and was dried up; and they gather them together, and cast into the fire, and they are burned. ⁷ If ye remain in me, and my words remain in you, ye shall ask whatever ye wish, and it shall be to you.

¹² Therefore let him seeming to stand see that he fall not. ¹³ No temptation except human has taken you and God faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able; but with the temptation will he also make an escape, that ye may be able to bear.

¹² As many as: wish to have an agreeable demeanor in the flesh, they compel you to be circumcised; only lest they should be driven out for the cross of Christ.

³ For none to be shaken in these pressures: for ye yourselves know that for this we are placed. ⁴ For also, when we were with you, we told you before that we were about to be pressed; as also it was, and ye know. ⁵ For this I also, no more concealing, sent to know your faith, lest some way he tempting have tempted you, and our labor be in vain.

¹⁵ Thou knowest this, that all they dwelling in Asia turned away from me; of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.

¹⁷ And this word as a gangrene, will have an eating ulcer: of whom is Hymeneus and Philetus; ¹⁸ Who concerning the truth missed their aim, saying the rising up has already been; and they subvert the faith of some.

¹⁰ For Demas has forsaken me, having loved the time now, and has gone to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

¹⁶ In my first defence none was present with me, but all forsook me; (may it not be reckoned to them.)

²⁹ Of how much worse punishment, think ye, shall he be deemed worthy. having trodden down the Son of God, and deemed the blood of the covenant common, in which he was consecrated, and having outraged the Spirit of grace?

¹⁹ They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they had remained with us, but, that they might be manifested, that they are not all of us.

¹⁰ Neither be afraid of what things thou art about to suffer: behold, the accuser is about to cast of you into prison, that ye might be tried; and ye shall have pressure ten days: be thou faithful until death, and I will give thee the crown of life.

¹³ I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, where the throne of Satan: and thou holdest my name, and hast not denied my faith, and in the days in which Antipas my faithful witness, who was slain with you, where Satan dwells.

⁷ And other fell in thorns, and the thorns came up, and choked it, and it gave no fruit.

⁵ Wilt thou cause thine eyes to fly upon it and it is not? for making, it will make to it wings; as an eagle and it flew to the heavens.

⁸ There is one, and not a second; also a son and brother not to him: and no end to all his labor; also his eye shall not be satisfied with riches: and for whom do I labor and diminish my soul from good? Also this is vanity, and it is an evil labor.

¹⁰ He loving silver shall not be satisfied with silver; and whoever loved not the increase with the multitude. Also this is vanity. ¹¹ In the multitude of good they were multiplied eating it: and what the success to its possessors but seeing with his eyes? ¹² The sleep of the servant is sweet, if little, or if much he shall eat: and the satiety to the rich not permitting to him to sleep. ¹³ There is an evil making sick I saw under the sun: riches watched to its owners for their evil. ¹⁴ And those riches shall perish by evil labor: and he begetting a son, and not anything in his hand. ¹⁵ According as he came forth from his mother's womb, naked he shall turn back to go as he came, and he shall not take away anything in his labor that shall go in his hand. ¹⁶ And also this an evil making sick, wholly as he came so shall he go: and what to him he shall labor for the wind?

² And he will dig it up, and he will free it from stones, and he will plant it with a vine of purple grapes, and build a tower in its midst, and he will also hew out a wine-vat in it: and he will wait for grapes to be made, and it will make wild grapes.

⁴ What to do more to my vineyard, and did I not in it? wherefore I waited for grapes to be made, and it will make wild grapes.

¹⁰ And now also the axe lies at the root of the trees; therefore every one not making good fruit is cut off and cast into fire.

²³ And Jesus said to his disciples, Truly I say to you, That with difficulty shall a rich one come into the kingdom of the heavens.

⁴¹ And Jesus having answered, said to her, Martha, Martha, thou hast care, and art confused about many things

¹⁷ And he calculated in himself, saying, What shall I do, for I have not where I shall collect together my fruits? ¹⁸ And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my stores, and build greater; and there will I collect all my produce and my good things. ¹⁹ And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast many good things laid up for many years; rest, eat, drink, be gladdened. ²⁰ And God said to him, O foolish one, this night they require thy soul from thee: and what thou hast prepared, to whom shall it be? ²¹ So he treasuring up for himself, and not rich toward God.

²⁹ And ye, seek ye not what ye eat, or what ye drink, and keep not in anxiety. ³⁰ For all these things the nations of the world seek for: and your Father knows that ye have need of these.

¹⁸ And from one they all began to conciliate. The first said to him, I bought a field, and have necessity to go and see it: I ask thee, have me pardoned. ¹⁹ And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I ask thee, have me pardoned. ²⁰ And another said, I have married wife, and therefore I cannot come.

² Every branch in me not bearing fruit he takes away: and every one bearing fruit, he cleanses it, that it might bear more fruit.

⁶ Rave anxiety about nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with gratitude let your desires be made known to God.

¹⁷ To the rich now in this life, proclaim not to be highminded, nor to be hoping upon the uncertainty of riches, but in the living God, offering us all things richly for profit;

⁷ For the earth drinking the rain coming often upon it, and bringing forth the vegetable fitting well to them by whom it is cultivated, receives commendation from God: ⁸ And producing thorns and briers is rejected, after having been tried, and near cursing; whose end for destruction.

² That no more to the eager desires of men, but to the will of God, should he live the remaining time in the flesh. ³ For the time of life passed over sufficient for us to have wrought the will of the nations, having gone in licentiousness, eager desires, drunkenness, revellings, drinkings, and criminal idolatries:

⁸ For these being to you, and abounding, they establish you not without effort, neither unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

¹⁵ Love not the world, nor the things in the world. If any love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. ¹⁶ For every thing which in the world, the eager desire of the flesh, and the eager desire of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. ¹⁷ And the world passes away, and its eager desires: but he doing the will of God remains for ever.

⁸ And other fell in good earth, and gave fruit coming up and increasing; and one brought thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred.

⁴ Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, if it remain not in the vine; so neither ye, if ye remain not in me. ⁵ I am the vine, ye the branches: he remaining in me, and I in him, he bears much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

¹⁶ Ye chose not me, but I chose you, and I have set you, that ye might retire and bear fruit, and your fruit remain: that whatever ye ask the Father in my name, he might give you.

⁴ Therefore, my brethren, ye also were dead to the law by the body of Christ; for you not to be to another, but to him raised from the dead, that we bring forth fruit to God.

²² And the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faith, ²³ Meekness, temperance: against such is no law.

¹⁰ For you to walk worthy of the Lord in all pleasing behavior, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

¹ Therefore as to the rest, brethren we ask you, and beseech in the Lord Jesus, as ye received from us how ye must walk and please God, that ye may more abound.

¹ Arise,shine, for thy light has come, and the glory of Jehovah has risen upon thee. ² For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gloom the nations: and Jehovah shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. ³ And nations shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.

¹⁵ Neither do they burn a light, and set it under a basket, but upon a chandelier: and it shines to all in the house.

¹⁶ None, having lighted a light, covers it with a vessel, or puts under a bed; but sets upon a candlestick, that they entering might see the light.

³³ And none, having lighted a lamp, puts in secret, neither under a bushel, but upon the chandelier, that they coming in should see the light.

⁷ And to each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for profit.

³ And fornication, and all uncleanness, or overreaching, let it not be named with you, as becomes the holy; ⁴ And obscenity, and silly discourse, or wit, which things concern not; but rather thankfulness. ⁵ For this ye are knowing, that every fornicator, or unclean, or covetous person, who is an idolater, has no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. ⁶ Let none lead you astray with vain words: for by these things comes the anger of God upon the sons of disobedience. ⁷ Be ye not therefore partakers with them. ⁸ For ye were then darkness, and now light in the Lord: walk ye as children of light: ⁹ (For the fruit of the Spirit in all goodness and justice and truth.;) ¹⁰ Trying what is pleasing to the Lord. ¹¹ And participate not with the unfruitful works of darkness, and rather also confute. ¹² For the things done secretly by them it is also shameful to speak. ¹³ And all things refuted, by light are made manifest: for everything made manifest is light. ¹⁴ Wherefore he says, Awake, who sleeping, and arise from the dead, and Christ will enlighten thee. ¹⁵ See therefore how ye walk accurately, not as unwise, but as wise,

¹⁵ That ye be complete and pure, children of God, blameless in the midst of a crooked and perverted generation, among whom ye appear as luminaries in the world; ¹⁶ Holding on to the word of life; for boasting to me in the day of Christ, for I ran not in vain, nor was I wearied in vain.

⁹ I announced good news, justice in the great convocation: behold, my lips I will not shut up, O Jehovah, thou knewest ¹⁰ I hid not thy justice within my heart; I said thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I hid not thy mercy and thy truth to the great convocation.

² I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter enigmas from ancient time: ³ Which we heard and we shall know them, and our fathers recounted to us. ⁴ It was not hid from their sons, to a later generation recounting the praises of Jehovah and his strength, and his wonders which he did.

¹⁴ For God will bring every work into judgment, with every thing hidden, whether good, and whether evil.

²⁶ Therefore fear them not; for nothing has been covered, which shall not be revealed; and concealed, that shall not be known. ²⁷ What I say to you in darkness, speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, proclaim upon the houses.

¹⁷ For there is nothing hid, which should not be made manifest; nor concealed, which should not be made known, and come clear.

² And there is nothing covered, which shall not be revealed; and secret which shall not be known. ³ Therefore whatever ye have said in darkness shall be heard in light; and what ye spake to the ear in storehouses shall be proclaimed upon house tops.

²⁰ For we cannot, the things we have seen and heard, not speak.

²⁷ For I concealed not to announce to you all the counsel of God.

⁵ Therefore judge ye nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who also, will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and make manifest the counsels of hearts: and then shall praise be to each from God.

¹ What was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we beheld, and our own hands felt, concerning the word of life; ² (And the life was manifested, and we have seen, and we testify, and announce to you the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested to us;) ³ What we have seen and heard we announce to you, that ye also might have communion with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

¹⁷ He having ears, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches; To him conquering will I give to eat from the hidden manna, and I will give him a white small stone, and upon the small stone a new name written, which none knew except he receiving.

²⁷ Cease, my son, to hear instructions for erring from the words of knowledge.

³ Incline your ear, and come to me, and hear, and your soul shall live; and I will cut out with you an eternal covenant, the sure mercies of David.

² For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and with what measure ye measure, it shall be repaid to you.

⁷ And a cloud was overshadowing them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my dearly beloved Son: hear ye him.

³⁷ And judge not, and ye should not be judged: condemn not, and ye should not be condemned: loose ye, and ye shall be loosed. ³⁸ Give, and it shall be given you; good measure, yielded, and shaken, and overflowed, shall they give into your bosom: for with the same measure that ye measure, shall it be measured back to you.

²⁵ Truly, truly, I say to you, That the hour comes, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they hearing shall live.

¹⁶ And I have, other sheep, which are not of this court-yard: and I must also bring them, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one flock, and one shepherd.

²⁷ My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.

⁶ And this, He sowing sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he sowing in praises shall reap also in praises.

² As new born babes, long for the sincere milk pertaining to the word, that ye might be nourished with it:

¹ And also were there false prophets among the people, as also among you shall be false teachers, who shall privately bring in doctrines of perdition, and denying the master having purchased them, having brought upon themselves swift destruction. ² (And many shall follow their licentiousness; by whom the way of truth shall be defamed.) ³ And by covetousness with feigned words shall trade in you: to whom judgment since a long while is not inactive, and their perdition sleeps not.

¹ Dearly beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits if they are of God: for many false prophets have come out into the world.

¹² For whoever has shall be given to him, and he shall have in excess; and whoever has not, also what he has shall be taken away from him.

²⁸ Therefore take the talent away from him, and give him having ten talents. ²⁹ For to every one having shall be given, and he shall be in abundance: and from him not having, also what he has shall be taken away from him.

⁹ And I say to you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of injustice; that, when ye fail, they might receive you into lasting tents. ¹⁰ He faithful in the least, is also faithful in much: and he unjust in the least, is also unjust in much. ¹¹ If therefore ye were not faithful in the unjust mammon, who shall trust to you the true? ¹² And if ye were not faithful with another, who shall give you your own?

²⁴ And to those standing by he said, Take away from him the coin, and give to him having the ten coins. ²⁵ (And they said to him, Lord, he has ten coins.) ²⁶ For I say to you, That to every one having shall be given; and from him not having, and what he has shall be taken away from him.

¹⁸ The unjust one did a work of falsehood: and the seed of justice the reward of truth.

⁴ He watching the wind shall not sow; and he looking in the clouds, shall not reap.

² And saying, Repent, for the kingdom of the heavens has drawn near.

¹⁷ From then Jesus began to proclaim, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of the heavens has drawn near.

¹¹ And having answered, he said to them, For to you it was given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but to them it was not given.

³¹ Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens is like a kernel of mustard, which a man taking, sowed in his field:

³³ Another parable spake he to them; The kingdom of the heavens is like to leaven, which a woman having taken, hid in three measures of wheaten flour, till the whole was leavened.

³ Hear ye; behold, he sowing went out to sow: ⁴ And it was in sowing some truly fell by the way, and the flying things of heaven came and ate it down.

¹⁴ He sowing sows the word. ¹⁵ And these are they by the way, where the word is sown; and when they hear, quickly comes Satan, and takes away the word sown in their hearts. ¹⁶ And these are likewise they sown upon stony places; who, when they hear, quickly with joy receive it; ¹⁷ And have no root in themselves, but are temporary; then pressure having been or expulsion for the word, quickly are they scandalized. ¹⁸ And these are they sown in thorns; these are they hearing the word. ¹⁹ And the cares of this time, and the deceit of riches, and eager desires about remaining things, coming in, choke the word, and it is unfruitful. ²⁰ And these are they sown on good earth; who hear the word, and receive, and bear fruit, one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred.

¹⁸ And he said, To what is the kingdom of God like? and to what shall I liken it?

²⁴ Truly, truly, I say to you, except a kernel of wheat, having fallen into the earth, should die, it remains alone: and if it should die, it brings forth much fruit.

¹⁸ And the fruit of justice is sown in peace by those making peace.

¹⁷ And I saw all the work of God, that no man shall be able to find out the work that was done under the sun in whatsoever a man shall labor to seek out, and he shall not find: and also if the wise one shall say to know, he shall not be able to find.

⁵ As thou wilt not know what the way of the spirit, as the bones in the womb of her being filled, so thou shalt not know the work of God who will make all.

⁷ Thou shouldest not wonder that I said to thee, Ye must be born from above. ⁸ The wind, where it wills, blows, and its voice thou hearest, but thou knowest not whence it comes, and where it goes: so is every one having been born of the Spirit.

³⁷ And what thou sowest, thou sowest not the body going to be, but the naked kernel, if perhaps of wheat, or some of the rest: ³⁸ And God gives it a body as he would, and to each of the seed its own body.

³ We ought to return thanks to God always for you, brethren, as is fitting, for your faith increases exceedingly, and the love of each one of you all enlarges to one another;

¹⁸ And grow ye in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him the glory now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

¹¹ And God will say the earth shall bring forth the tender grass, and the green herb bearing seed, and the fruit tree making fruit according to its kind, in which is the seed in it upon the earth: and it shall be so. ¹² And the earth shall bring forth the tender grass, the green herb bearing seed according to its kind, and the tree making fruit in which the seed is in it, according to its kind: and God will see that it is good.

⁴ These the generations of the heavens and the earth in creating them, in the day of Jehovah God's making the earth and the heavens. ⁵ And every green thing of the field before it shall be in the earth, and every green herb of the field before it will spring up: for Jehovah God rained not upon the earth and not a man to work the earth.

⁹ And Jehovah God will cause to grow out of the earth every tree pleasant to the sight, and good for food; and the tree of lives in the midst of the garden, and the tree to know good and evil.

¹¹ And now cursed art thou, from the earth, which opened her mouth to take thy brother's bloods from thy hand. ¹² When thou shalt work the earth she shall not add to give her strength to thee. Wandering and fleeing shalt thou be in the earth.

³ And he was as a tree planted by the streams of water which will give its fruit in its time; his leaf shall not fall away, and all which he shall do shall be prospered.

¹³ Those being planted in the house of Jehovah, shall flourish in the enclosures of our God. ¹⁴ They shall yet sprout in old as; they shall be fat and green.

¹⁸ The path of the just as the light shining, going and shining even to the day prepared.

¹ To all a season, and a time to every inclination under the heavens:

¹¹ He made everything beautiful in his time: also he gave hidden time in their heart, so that man shall not find the work which God did from the beginning and even to the end.

¹¹ For as the earth will bring forth her sprout, and as a garden will cause the things sown to sprout, so the Lord Jehovah will cause justice and praise to sprout before all nations.

³ And we shall know, we shall pursue to know Jehovah: as the morning his going forth was prepared; and he shall come as the rain to us, as the latter rain, the early rain of the earth.

³¹ As a kernel of mustard, which, when it be sown in the earth, is smaller than all seeds upon the earth: ³² And when it be sown, it comes up and is greater than all vegetables, and makes great young shoots; so that the flying things of heaven can encamp under its shadow.

⁶ Confident of this same, that he having begun a good work in you will complete till the day of Jesus Christ:

⁹ And this I prey, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all intelligence; ¹⁰ For you to try things differing; that ye may be pure and not stumbling to the day of Christ; ¹¹ Filled with the fruits of justice, by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

¹² And the Lord increase you and make you to abound in love to one another, and to all, as also we to you: ¹³ To make your hearts firm, complete in holiness before God, and our Father, in the arrival of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his holy ones.

²⁶ Thou shalt come in old age to thy grave, as the ascending of a heap of sheaves in its time.

¹ The just one perished and none put upon the heart: men of kindness being taken away, for none understanding that the just one was taken away from the face of evil ² He shall come into peace: they shall rest upon their beds, he went in his justice.

¹³ Send ye forth the sickle, for the harvest was ripened: come ye, go down, for the wine press was filled, the vats, overflowed; for their evil is great

³⁰ Suffer both to grow together till harvest; and in time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them; and gather the wheat into my barn.

⁴⁰ As therefore the tares are gathered together and burnt in fire; so shall it be in the end of this time. ⁴¹ The Son of man shall send forth his messengers, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all scandals, and those doing iniquity; ⁴² And they shall cast them into a furnace of fire; there shall there be weeping and gnashing of teeth. ⁴³ Then shall the just emit a brilliant light as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He having ears to hear, let him hear.

⁷ I have contended earnestly the good contest, I have completed the course, I have kept the faith: ⁸ As to the rest, the crown of justice is laid up for me, which the Lord will assign to me in that day, the just judge: and not only to me, but also to all them having loved his appearance.

¹³ And I heard a voice from heaven, saying, Write, Happy the dead who dying in the Lord from henceforth: Yes, says the Spirit, that they might cease from their fatigues; and their works follow with them. ¹⁴ And I saw, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud he sitting like the Son of man, having upon his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle. ¹⁵ And another angel went forth out of the temple, crying with a great voice to him sitting upon the cloud, Send thy sickle, and reap: for the hour has come to thee to reap; for the earth's harvest was dried up. ¹⁶ And he sitting upon the cloud cast his sickle upon the earth; and the earth was reaped. ¹⁷ And another angel came forth out of the temple which in heaven, the same also having a sharp sickle.

¹³ What shall I testify for thee? What shall I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? What shall I compare to thee, and comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for great as the sea thy breaking: who shall heal for thee?

¹⁶ To what shall I liken this generation I it is like little boys sitting in market-places, and calling to their companions,

³¹ Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens is like a kernel of mustard, which a man taking, sowed in his field: ³² Which truly is less than all seeds; but when it has grown, it is greater than vegetables, and becomes a tree, so that the flying things of heaven come and lodge in its young shoots.

¹⁸ And he said, To what is the kingdom of God like? and to what shall I liken it? ¹⁹ It is like a kernel of mustard, which a man having taken, cast into his garden; and it grew, and became into a great tree; and the fowls of heaven encamped in its young shoots. ²⁰ And again he said, To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? ²¹ It is like leaven, which a woman having taken, hid in three measures of wheaten flour, until the whole was leavened.

¹⁷ That praising, I will praise thee, and multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand upon the lip of the sea; and thy seed shall inherit the gate of his enemies. ¹⁸ And in thy seed all the nations of the earth shall be praised; because that thou didst listen to my voice.

¹⁶ There shall be diffusion of grain in the earth upon the head of the mountains; its fruit shall shake as Lebanon, and they shall blossom from the city as the grass of the earth. ¹⁷ His name shall be forever: his name shall flourish before the sun: and they shall be praised in him: all nations shall pronounce him happy. ¹⁸ Praised be Jehovah God, the God of Israel, doing wonders himself alone. ¹⁹ And praised be the name of his glory forever; and his glory shall fill all the earth. Amen and Amen.

² And it was in the last days, the mountain of the house of Jehovah shall be prepared upon the head of the mountains, and lifted up above the hills; and all nations flowed to it ³ And many people went and said, Come, and we will go up to the mountain of Jehovah, to the house of the God of Jacob, and he will teach us from his ways, and we will go in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.

⁷ To the increase of his dominion and to peace no end, upon the throne of David and upon his kingdom to prepare it and to support it in judgment and in justice from now and even to forever: the zeal of Jehovah of armies will do this.

⁶ And he will say, It was light thou being to me a servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to turn back the preserved of Israel: and I gave thee for a light of the nations to be my salvation even to the extremity of the earth. ⁷ Thus said Jehovah redeeming Israel, his Holy One, to the despised of soul, to him being abhorred of the nations, to a servant of rulers, Kings shall see and princes arose, and they shall worship him for sake of Jehovah who was faithful, the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee.

² He shall come up as a sucking child before him, and as a root out of a land of dryness: no form to him and no decoration; and we shall see him, and no appearance and we shall desire him.

¹² For this I will divide to him with many, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; for which his soul was poured out to death, and he was numbered with transgressors; and he lifted up the sin of many, and he will supplicate for transgressors.

²² The little one shall be for a thousand, and the small for a strong nation: I Jehovah will hasten it in its time.

²² Thus said the Lord Jehovah: And I took from the foliage of the cedar, and I gave from the head; I will pluck its suckers a tender one, and I planted upon a mountain of height and heaped up. ²³ In the mountain of the height of Israel I will plant it: and it bare a branch, and it made fruit, and it was for a great cedar: and there dwelt under it all fowls of every wing; in the shadow of its branches shall they dwell. ²⁴ And all the trees of the field knew that I Jehovah brought low the tree of height, made high the low tree, I dried up the green tree, and I caused the dry tree to flourish: I Jehovah spake and I did.

³⁴ Thou wert seeing even till a stone was cut out not with hands, and striking against the image upon the feet of iron and burnt clay, and breaking them in pieces. ³⁵ At that time were beaten small at once, the iron, the burnt clay, the brass, the silver and the gold, and they were as the chaff of the threshing-floor of summer; and the wind lifted them up and all place was not found for them: and the stone striking against the image was for a great rock, and filled all the earth.

⁴⁴ And in their days that they are kings, the God of the heavens shall set up a kingdom that shall not be destroyed forever: and its kingdom shall be left to another people; it shall beat small and destroy all these kingdoms, and this shall stand forever. ⁴⁵ Because that thou sawest that the stone being cut from the rock not with hands, and it beat small the iron, the brass, the burnt clay, the silver and the gold: the great God made known to the king what to be after this: and the dream certain, and its interpretation faithful.

¹¹ In that day I will raise up the tent of David having fallen, and I walled in their breaches, and I will raise up its destructions, and I built it as the days of old: ¹² So that they shall possess the remnant of Edom, and all the nations which my name was called upon them, says Jehovah doing this ¹³ Behold, the days coming, says Jehovah, the ploughing touched upon the harvesting, and the treading of grapes upon the drawing of the seed; and the mountains dropped new wine, and all the hills shall melt. ¹⁴ And I turned back the captivity of my people Israel, and they built the cities laid waste, and they inhabited; and they planted vineyards, and they drank their wine; and they made gardens and ate their fruit ¹⁵ And I planted them upon their land, and they shall no more be plucked up from their land which I gave to them, said Jehovah thy God.

¹ And it was in the last of the days the mountain of the house of Jehovah will be prepared upon the head of the mountains, and it was lifted up above the hills, and peoples flowed to it. ² And many nations went and said, Come, and we will go up to the mountain of Jehovah, and to the house of the God of Jacob, and he will teach us from his ways, and we will go in his paths: from Zion will instruction go forth, and the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.

¹¹ And many nations joined themselves to Jehovah in that day, and they were to me for a people: and I dwelt in the midst of thee, and thou knewest that Jehovah of armies sent me to thee.

²⁰ Thus said Jehovah of armies: Yet that peoples shall come, and the inhabitants of many cities: ²¹ And the inhabitants of one went to one, saying, We will go, going to beseech the face of Jehovah, and to seek Jehovah of armies: I will go also. ²² And many peoples and strong nations came to seek Jehovah of armies in Jerusalem, and to beseech the face of Jehovah. ²³ Thus said Jehovah of armies: In those days, that ten men shall take hold from all tongues of the nations, and they took hold of the wing of a man a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we heard God is with you.

⁸ In that day Jehovah shall protect about the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he being weak among them in that day was as David; and the house of David as God, as the messenger of Jehovah before them.

⁶ And it was in that day the light shall not be; the splendors shall be drawn in: ⁷ And it was one day it shall be known to Jehovah, not day, and not night: and it was at the time of evening it shall be light ⁸ And it was in that day living waters went forth from Jerusalem: half of them to the former sea, and half of them to the last sea: in summer and in autumn shall it be. ⁹ And Jehovah was for king over all the earth: in that day Jehovah shall be one, and his name one.

¹¹ For from the rising of the sun and even to its going down, great my name among the nations; and in every place incense being brought to my name, and a clean gift: for great my name among the nations, said Jehovah of armies.

³¹ Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of the heavens is like a kernel of mustard, which a man taking, sowed in his field: ³² Which truly is less than all seeds; but when it has grown, it is greater than vegetables, and becomes a tree, so that the flying things of heaven come and lodge in its young shoots. ³³ Another parable spake he to them; The kingdom of the heavens is like to leaven, which a woman having taken, hid in three measures of wheaten flour, till the whole was leavened.

¹⁸ And he said, To what is the kingdom of God like? and to what shall I liken it? ¹⁹ It is like a kernel of mustard, which a man having taken, cast into his garden; and it grew, and became into a great tree; and the fowls of heaven encamped in its young shoots.

⁴¹ Then truly they having gladly received his word were immersed: and in that day were added about three thousand souls.

⁴ And many of them having heard the word, believed; and the number of men was about five thousand.

¹⁴ And the believing were the more added to the Lord, multitudes of men and also of women.)

²⁰ Thus with might the word of the Lord increased, and was strong.

²⁰ And they having heard, honoured the Lord, and said to him, Thou seest, brother, how many ten thousands of Jews there are having believed: and all are zealous of the law:

¹⁵ And the seventh angel sounded the trumpet; and great voices were in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of the world were our Lord's, and his Christ's; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

¹ And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss, and a great chain in his hand. ² And he seized the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, ³ And he cast him into the abyss, and shut him up, and affixed a seal above him, that he should no more deceive the nations, until the thousand years be finished: and after these things he must be loosed a little time. ⁴ And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given them: and the souls of them beheaded with an axe for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God, and who worshipped not the wild beast, nor his image, and took not the stamp upon their foreheads, and upon their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. ⁵ And the rest of the dead returned not again to life even till the thousand years be finished. This the first rising up. ⁶ Happy and holy he having a part in the first rising up: over these has the second death no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they shall reign with him a thousand years.

⁹ Thou didst set in order before it, and thou wilt cause its roots to take root and the earth will be filled. ¹⁰ Its Shadow covered the mountains, and its branches the cedars of God. ¹¹ Thou Wilt send forth her boughs even to the sea, and her suckers to the river.

¹ He dwelling in the covering of the Most High, in the shadow of the Almighty shall he lodge.

³ As the apple among the trees of the forest, so my beloved between the sons. In his shadow I delighted, and I sat down, and his fruit was sweet to my palate.

⁹ They shall not do evil, and they shall not destroy in all my holy mountain, for the earth full of the knowledge of Jehovah as the waters covering to the sea.

² And a man was as a hiding of the spirit, and a covering of the tempest; as brooks of water in Zion, as the shadow of a weighty rock in a weary land.

²⁰ The spirit of our nostrils, the Messiah of Jehovah was taken in their pits, of whom we said, Under his shadow we shall live among the nations.

³ Behold, Assur a cedar in Lebanon, fair of branch, and a shading thicket, and high of stature; and his foliage was between the thick boughs. ⁴ The water made him great, the deep raised him up with her rivers going round about her planting, and she sent forth her channels to all the trees of the field. ⁵ For this his height was lifted up more than all the trees of the field, and his boughs will be multiplied, and his branches will be extended from many waters, in his sending forth. ⁶ And all the birds of the heavens nested in his boughs, under his branches all the of the field brought forth, and in his shadow dwelt all the great nations. ⁷ And he was fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by many waters. ⁸ The cedars did not hide him in the garden of God: the cypresses were not like to his boughs, and the plane trees were not as his branches; every tree in the garden of God was not like to him in his beauty. ⁹ I made him fair by the multitude of his branches, and all the trees of Eden which are in the garden of God will envy him. ¹⁰ For this, thus said the Lord Jehovah: Because thou wert lifted up in height, and he will give his foliage between the thick boughs, and his heart was lifted up in his height;

¹⁰ And the visions of my head upon my bed; I was seeing, and lo, a tree in the midst of the earth, and its height great ¹¹ And the tree increased and was strong, and its height will reach to the heavens, and its sight to the end of all the earth: ¹² Its foliage beautiful, and its fruit great, and food for all in it: and the beasts of the open field will be shaded under it, the buds of the heavens will dwell in its boughs, and all flesh will be nourished from it ¹³ I was seeing in the visions of my head upon my bed, and lo, a watcher and holy one came down from the heavens; ¹⁴ He called with strength, and thus he said, Hew down the tree, and cut off its branches, shake off its foliage and scatter its fruit: the beasts shall flee from under it, and the birds from its branches.

²⁰ The tree that thou sawest that increased and was strong, and its height will reach to the heavens, and its sight to all the earth, ²¹ And its foliage beautiful, and its fruit great, and food for all in it; under it the beast of the open field will dwell, and in its branches the birds of the heavens will dwell: ²² It is thou, O king, who increased and wert strong: and thy greatness increased and reached to the heavens, and thy dominion to the end of the earth.

¹² I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now.

³⁶ Then Jesus having dismissed the crowds, went into the house; and his disciples came to him, saying, Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field. ³⁷ And he having answered, said to them, He sowing the good seed is the Son of man: ³⁸ And the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the tares are the sons of the evil one; ³⁹ And the enemy having sowed them is the devil; and the harvest is the end of time; and the reapers are the messengers.

¹⁵ And Peter, having answered, said to him, Explain to us this parable. ¹⁶ And Jesus said, Are ye also yet destitute of understanding? ¹⁷ Do ye not yet understand, that everything going into the mouth proceeds to the belly, and is cast out in the privy? ¹⁸ But the things going forth out of the mouth come from the heart, and these pollute the man. ¹⁹ For from the heart come forth evil reflections, slaughters, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false testimonies, defamations: ²⁰ These are the things polluting a man: but to eat with unwashed hands pollutes not a man.

¹⁰ And when he was alone, they about him with the twelve asked him of the parable.

¹⁷ And when he came into the house from the crowd, his disciples asked him of the parable. ¹⁸ And he says, So are ye also without understanding? Do ye not perceive, that anything from without entering into a man, cannot pollute him ¹⁹ For it goes not into the heart, but into the belly, and goes forth into the privy, purging all food ²⁰ And he said, That going out of a man, that pollutes a man. ²¹ For within, out of the heart of men, go forth evil reflections, adulteries, fornications, murders, ²² Thefts, overreaching, deceit, licentiousness, an evil eye, defamation, pride, foolishness: ²³ All these evils go out from within, and pollute a man.

²⁷ And having begun from Moses and from all the prophets, he explained clearly to them in all the writings concerning himself.

⁴⁴ And he said to them, These the words which I spake to you, being yet with you, for all things must be completed, written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the Psalms, concerning me. ⁴⁵ Then opened he their understanding, to understand the writings, ⁴⁶ And he said to them, That so has it been written, and so was it necessary for Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:

²⁵ These have I spoken to you in proverbs: but the hour comes, when I shall no more speak to you in proverbs, but with freedom of speech will I announce to you of the Father.

¹⁸ And Jesus seeing many crowds about him, encouraged to go away beyond.

²³ And he having gone into a ship, his disciples followed him. ²⁴ And, behold, a great shaking was in the sea, so that the ship was covered by the waves: and be slept. ²⁵ And his disciples, having come near, awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we are lost. ²⁶ And he says to them, Why are ye timorous, ye of little faith? Then having risen, he censured the winds and sea; and there was a great calm. ²⁷ And the men admired, saying, Of what race is this for the winds and the sea listen to him.

²² And quickly Jesus constrained his disciples to go into the ship, and to go before him to the other side, till he should loose the crowds.

²¹ And Jesus having passed over again in the ship on the other side, a great crowd was gathered together to him: and he was by the sea.

⁴⁵ And quickly he constrained his disciples to go to the ship, and to lead before to the other side of Bethsaida, till he loose the crowd:

¹³ And having let them go, having gone again into the ship, he departed beyond.

²² And it was in one of the days, and he went into a ship, and his disciples: and he said to them, Let us pass through to the other side of the lake. And they led forth.

²⁵ And he said to them, Where is your faith And having feared, they wondered, saying to one another, Who then is this! that also commands the winds and the waters, and they listen to him!

¹ After these Jesus departed beyond the sea of Galilee, of Tiberias.

¹⁷ And having entered into a ship, they came beyond the sea to Capernaum. And already was there darkness, and Jesus had not come to them.

²⁵ And having found them beyond the sea, they said to him, Rabbi, when camest thou here?

⁹ And he said to his disciples, that a small vessel should remain for him, on account of the crowd, that they might not press him.

¹ And again he began to teach by the sea: and a great crowd was gathered together to him, so that he, having gone into the ship, sat in the sea; and all the crowd was by the sea upon land.

² And to him coming out of the ship, quickly a man met him from the monuments with an unclean spirit,

¹² And Jehovah will say to the adversary, Behold, all that is to him in thy hand: only upon him thou shalt not send. forth thy hand. And the adversary will go forth from the face of Jehovah.

¹⁹ And behold, a great wind came from beyond the desert., and it will touch upon the four corners of the house, and fall upon the young men, and they will die; and I shall escape, I only, to announce to thee.

²³ They shall go down to the sea in ships, doing work in many waters. ²⁴ They saw the works of Jehovah, and his wonders in the deep. ²⁵ And he will say, and he will cause the spirit of storm to stand up, and its waves will rise up. ²⁶ They will go up to the heavens, they will go down to the depths: their soul will be melted with evil. ²⁷ They will reel and stagger as he intoxicated, and all their wisdom will be swallowed down. ²⁸ And they will cry to Jehovah in straits to them, and he will bring them forth from their distresses. ²⁹ He will set the storm for a calm, and their waves will be still ³⁰ And they will be glad that they will subside, and he will guide them to the harbor of their desire. ³¹ They shall confess to Jehovah his mercy, and his wonders to the sons of man.

⁴ And Jehovah cast down a great wind upon the sea, and there will be a great storm upon the sea, and the ship was thought to be broken.

²³ And he having gone into a ship, his disciples followed him. ²⁴ And, behold, a great shaking was in the sea, so that the ship was covered by the waves: and be slept.

²² And it was in one of the days, and he went into a ship, and his disciples: and he said to them, Let us pass through to the other side of the lake. And they led forth. ²³ And they sailing, he fell asleep: and a hurricane of wind came down upon the lake; and they were filled, and were in peril.

¹⁴ And after not much a violent wind struck against it, called Enroclydon. ¹⁵ And the ship having been caught, and not able to resist the wind, yielding we were carried away. ¹⁶ And having run under a certain island called Clauda, with difficulty were we able to be commanding the boat: ¹⁷ Which having taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship: and fearing lest they might fall through into the quicksand, having loosened the vessel, so were they borne away. ¹⁸ And we being exceedingly tempest tossed, the following day they made a casting of the cargo overboard; ¹⁹ And the third, working with our bands, we cast out the rigging of the ship. ²⁰ And neither sun nor stars appearing for many days, and no small tempest impending, finally all hope for us to be saved was removed.

⁴¹ And having fallen into a place between two seas, they caused the ship to strike; and truly the prow, fixed firmly, remained undisturbed, but the stern was loosed by force of the waves.

²⁵ Thrice was I scourged with rods, once was I stoned, thrice suffered I shipwreck, I have made a night and day in the deep;

²⁷ And it will be at noon, and Elijah will deride upon them, and he will say, Call with a great voice, for he a god: for he is talking, and because a withdrawing to him, and because a way to him, perhaps he is sleeping, and he will awake. ²⁸ And they will call with a great voice, and they will cut themselves according to their judgment, with swords and with spears, even to the pouring out of blood upon them. ²⁹ And it will be as the noon passed by, and they will prophesy even to the going up of the gift, and no voice, and none answered, and no attention.

⁵ If thou shalt seek to God, if thou shalt make supplication to him; ⁶ If thou wert pure and upright, for now he will awake for thee and requite the habitation of thy justice.

¹ Wherefore, O Jehovah, wilt thou stand afar off? wilt thou hide for times in straits? ² In the pride of the unjust he will burn the poor: they shall be taken in the devices that they purposed.

¹ To the overseer upon the first place of the dawn; chanting of David. My God, my God, wherefore forsookest thou me? far off from my salvation the words of my groaning. ² My God, I will call in the day, and thou wilt not answer; and in the night no silence to me.

²³ Awake, why wilt thou sleep, O Jehovah? awake, thou wilt not reject forever. ²⁴ Why wilt thou hide thy face? wilt thou forget our affliction and our oppression?

⁷ Will Jehovah reject forever? and will he no more add to be satisfied? ⁸ Did his mercy fail forever? his word come to an end to generation and generation? ⁹ Did God forget to compassionate? or in anger did he gather his compassion? Silence. ¹⁰ And saying, This has made me sick: the years of the right hand of the Most High.

²⁷ For what wilt thou say, O Jacob, and wilt thou speak, O Israel, My way was hid from Jehovah, and my judgment will pass over from my God. ²⁸ Didst thou not know? heardest thou not the eternal God, Jehovah, creating the extremities of the earth, will not faint, and will not be weary? no searching to his understanding.

¹⁴ And Zion will say, Jehovah forsook me, and the Lord forgot me. ¹⁵ Shall a woman forget her child, from pitying the son of her womb? also these shall forget, and I shall not forget thee. ¹⁶ Behold, upon the palms I engraved thee; thy walls before me continually.

⁹ Rouse up, rouse up, put on strength, thou arm of Jehovah; rouse up as the days of old, of everlasting generations. Was it not with him cutting off Rahab, wounding the sea monster? ¹⁰ Was it not with him desolating the sea, the water of the great deep? setting the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass over?

⁶ As a wife forsaken and grieved of spirit Jehovah called thee, and a wife of youth; for thou shalt be rejected, said thy God. ⁷ In a little moment I forsook thee; and with great mercies I will gather thee. ⁸ In the outpouring of anger I hid a moment my face from thee; and in eternal mercy I compassionated thee, said Jehovah redeeming thee.

¹⁵ Look from the heavens, and see from thy holy dwelling and thy glory: where thy zeal and thy strength? the multitude of thy bowels and thy compassions to me restrained themselves.

¹² For these wilt thou refrain thyself, O Jehovah? wilt thou be silent, and wilt thou humble us even greatly?

⁸ Also when I shall exclaim and cry out, he stopped my prayer.

²⁵ And his disciples, having come near, awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we are lost.

²⁴ And having come near, they awoke him, saying, Ruler ruler, we perish. And having risen, he censured the wind and heaving of water; and they ceased, and there was a calm.

⁶ And Jacob's spring was there. Then Jesus, wearied with the journey, sat thus by the spring: it was about the sixth hour.

¹⁷ Wherefore in all things it was necessary to be made like to the brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful chief priest in things towards God, in order to propitiate for the sin of the people.

¹⁵ For we have not a chief priest unable to suffer with our weaknesses; but tried in all things as a resemblance, without sin.

⁷ Having cast all your care upon him; for to him is the care for you.

¹⁶ And thou, lift up thy rod, and stretch forth thy hand over the sea, and break it up: and the sons of Israel shall go in the midst of the sea on dry land.

²² And the sons of Israel will go in the midst of the sea on dry land; and the waters to them a wall from their right hand and from their left.

²⁸ And the waters will turn back, and will cover the. chariots and the horsemen, to all Pharaoh's army coming after them into the sea: and there was not left among them even one. ²⁹ And the sons of Israel came upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were to them a wall from the right hand and from the left

¹¹ And saying, Even to this shalt thou come, and thou shalt not add: and here in the pride of thy waves, stand thou.

¹⁰ Jehovah sat upon the inundation: and Jehovah sat King forever.

⁷ Restraining the tumult of the seas, the tumult of their waves, and the multitude of the nations.

⁹ Thou ruling over the lifting up of the sea: in the lifting up of its waves thou wilt soothe them.

³ The rivers lifted up, O Jehovah, the rivers lifted up their voice, the rivers shall lift up their roarings. ⁴ Jehovah on high is great above the voices of many waters, the mighty breakers of the sea.

⁷ From thy rebuke they shall flee; from the voice of thy thunder they shall be terrified. ⁸ They shall go up the mountains; they shall go down into the valleys to the place: this thou didst found for them. ⁹ Thou didst set a bound they shall not pass over; they shall not turn bark to cover the earth.

²⁹ He will set the storm for a calm, and their waves will be still

⁸ Fire and hail, snow and vapor: the spirit of storm doing his word:

²⁹ In his setting his law to the sea, and the waters shall not pass by his mouth; in his making firm the foundations of the earth:

²² Will ye not fear me? says Jehovah; or will ye not tremble from my face, who set the sand a bound to the sea a law forever, and it shall not pass over it: and its waves shall toss themselves and shall not prevail; and they were put in commotion and shall not pass over it

³¹ For Jehovah will not cast of forever:

⁴ Rebuking upon the sea, and he will dry it up, and all the rivers he laid waste, and Bashan languished, and Carmel, and the flower of Lebanon languished.

²⁵ And Jesus, having seen that the crowd ran together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, Speechless and deaf spirit, I command thee to come out of him, and that thou come no more into him.

³⁹ And having stood over her, he censured the fever: and it left her: and having risen immediately she served them.

¹ To the overseer for the sons of Korah, with the female voice: a song. O God, to us refuge and strength, helping greatly, being found in straits ² For this we will not fear in the changing of the earth, and in the moving of the mountains into the heart of the seas. ³ Its waters will roar, they will foam; the mountains will tremble in its pride. Silence.

³ A broken reed he shall not break, and bedimmed flax shall he not quench it: he shall bring forth judgment to truth.

² When thou shalt pass through the waters, I with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou shalt go through fire thou shalt not be burnt, and the flame shall not consume thee.

³⁰ And if the grass of the field, being this day, and to morrow cast into the furnace, God so clothes much rather you, ye of little faith!

²⁶ And he says to them, Why are ye timorous, ye of little faith? Then having risen, he censured the winds and sea; and there was a great calm.

³¹ And quickly Jesus, having stretched out the hand, laid hold of him, and says to him, O thou of little faith, for what didst thou doubt?

⁸ And Jesus having known, said to them, Why reason ye among yourselves, O ye of little faith, because ye have taken no loaves

¹⁹ Then having urged forward about twent-five or thirty stadia, they behold Jesus walking upon the sea, and being near the ship: and they were afraid. ²⁰ And he says to them, I am; be not afraid.

¹⁸ And Samuel will call to Jehovah, and Jehovah will give voices and rain in that day: and all the people will be greatly afraid of Jehovah and Samuel. ¹⁹ And all the people will say to Samuel, Pray for thy servants to Jehovah thy God, and we shall not die; for we added upon all our sins the wickedness to ask for us a king. ²⁰ And Samuel will say to the people, Ye shall not be afraid: ye did all this wickedness: but ye shall not turn aside from after Jehovah, and serve ye Jehovah with all your heart.

²⁴ But fear ye Jehovah, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for see what he magnified with you.

⁷ God being greatly terrible in the council of the holy ones and to be feared by all round about him.

⁹ And he will say to them, I an Hebrew; and I feared Jehovah God of the heavens, who made the sea and the dry land. ¹⁰ And the men will fear a great fear, and they will say to him, What this thou didst? For the men knew that he fled from the face of Jehovah, for he announced to them.

¹⁵ And they will lift up Jonah and cast him down into the sea: and the sea will stand from its foam. ¹⁶ And the men feared Jehovah with great fear, and they will sacrifice a sacrifice to Jehovah, and they will vow vows.

⁵ My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I will give them to him fearing, and he shall fear me, and from the face of my name he was terrified.

²⁷ And the men admired, saying, Of what race is this for the winds and the sea listen to him.

³² And having gone into the ship, the wind ceased.

³³ And the woman, afraid and trembling, having known what bad been upon her, came and fell down before him, and spake all the truth to him.

³⁷ And above measure were they struck with amazement, saying, Well has he done all things: he makes the deaf to hear, and the speechless to speak.

³⁶ And amazement was upon all, and they spake to one another, saying, What this word with authority and power he commands unclean spirits, and they come out.

²⁸ Wherefore we receiving a kingdom unmoved; we should have grace by which we might serve God acceptably, with reverence and circumspection:

⁴ Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou alone holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy justices were made manifest.
