² And on him shall light the spirit of the LORD: the spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the spirit of counsel and of strength, the spirit of knowledge and of reverence, and it shall make him savour of the fear of the LORD ³ And he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes: neither shall rebuke after the hearing of his ears. ⁴ But he shall judge the causes of the poor with righteousness, and shall rebuke with equity for the humble of the earth. And he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall slay the wicked. ⁵ And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.

¹⁸ And in that day, shall deaf men hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see, even out of the cloud and out of darkness. ¹⁹ The meek-spirited shall hold a merry feast in the LORD, and the poor among them that be lowly shall rejoice in the holy one of Israel.

³ The eyes of the seeing shall not be dim, and the ears of them that hear, shall take diligent heed.

⁵ Then shall the eyes of the blind be lightened, and the ears of the deaf opened.

¹ Behold now therefore, this is my servant whom I will keep to myself: mine elect; In whom my soul shall be pacified. I will give him my spirit, that he may show forth judgment and equity among the Gentiles. ² He shall not be an out-crier, nor a high-minded person. His voice shall not be heard in the streets. ³ A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: but faithfully and truly shall he give judgment. ⁴ He shall neither be overseen nor hasty, that he may restore righteousness unto the earth: and the Gentiles also shall keep his laws.

⁷ That thou mayest open the eyes of the blind; let out the prisoners, and them that sit in darkness, out of the dungeon house.

¹⁶ I will bring the blind into the street, that they know not: and lead them in to a foot path, that they are ignorant in. I shall make darkness light before them, and the thing that is crooked to be straight. These things will I do, and not forget them. ¹⁷ And therefore let them convert, and be ashamed earnestly, that hope in Idols and say to fashioned images, "Ye are our gods." ¹⁸ Hear, O ye deaf men, and sharpen your sights to see, O ye blind!

¹³ I shall wake him up with righteousness, and order all his ways. He shall build my city, and let out my prisoners: and that neither for gifts or rewards, sayeth the LORD of Hosts.

⁹ That thou mayest say to the prisoners, "Go forth," and to them that are in darkness, "Come into the light." That they may feed in the high ways, and get their living in all places.

²⁴ Who spoileth the giant of his prey? Or, who taketh the prisoners from the mighty? ²⁵ And therefore thus sayeth the LORD: The prisoners shall be taken from the giant, and the spoil delivered from the violent; for I will maintain thy cause against thine adversaries, and save thy sons.

⁴ The LORD God hath given me a well learned tongue, so that I can comfort them which are troubled; yea, and that in due season. He waked mine ear up betimes in the morning, as schoolmasters do; that I might hark.

² Shake thee from the dust, arise and stand up, O Jerusalem. Pluck out thy neck from the bond, O thou captive daughter Zion. ³ For thus sayeth the LORD: Ye are sold for naught, therefore shall ye be redeemed also without any money.

¹⁵ For thus sayeth the high and excellent, even he that dwelleth in everlastingness, whose name is the holy one: I dwell high above and in the sanctuary, and with him also, that is of a contrite and humble spirit: that I may heal a troubled mind, and a contrite heart.

²¹ I will make this covenant with them, sayeth the LORD: My spirit that is come upon thee, and the words which I have put in thy mouth, shall never go out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy children, nor out of the mouth of thy children's children, from this time forth for evermore.

² As for these things, my hand hath made them all, and they are all created, sayeth the LORD. Which of them shall I then regard? Even him that is of a lowly troubled spirit, and standeth in awe of my works.

⁴ and the LORD said unto him, "Go thy way through the city of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of them that mourn and are sorry for all the abominations that be done therein."

²⁴ Seventy weeks are determined over thy people, and over the holy city: that the wickedness may be consumed, that the sin may have an end, that the offense may be reconciled, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, to fulfill the visions and the Prophets, and to anoint the most holy one.

¹² In thee also will I leave a small, poor, simple people: which shall trust in the name of the LORD.

¹¹ Thou also, through the blood of thy covenant, shalt let thy prisoners out of the pit, wherein is no water. ¹² Turn you now to the stronghold, ye that be in prison, and long sore to be delivered: And this day I bring the word, that I will reward thee double again.

¹¹ And so it was broken in that day. Then the poor simple sheep that had a respect unto me, knew thereby that it was the word of the LORD.

² But unto you that fear my name, shall the Son of righteousness arise, and health shall be under his wings: ye shall go forth, and multiply as the fat calves.

¹⁶ the people which sat in darkness saw great light and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light has begun to shine."

³ "Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

²⁷ And as Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him crying, and saying, "O thou son of David, have mercy on us." ²⁸ And when he was come into the home, the blind came to him: and Jesus said unto them, "Believe ye that I am able to do this?" And they said unto him, "Yea, Lord." ²⁹ Then touched he their eyes saying, "According to your faith, be it unto you." ³⁰ And their eyes were opened. And Jesus charged them, saying, "See that no man know of it."

⁵ The blind see, the halt go, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are risen again, and the glad tidings is preached to the poor.

²⁰ A bruised reed shall he not break, and flax that beginneth to burn he shall not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.

²⁰ And he lifted up his eyes upon the disciples, and said, "Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.

²² And Jesus answered, and said unto them, "Go your ways and show John, what things ye have heard and seen: how that the blind see, the halt go, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead arise: To the poor is the glad tidings preached,

⁴¹ The same found his brother Simon first, and said unto him, "We have found Messiah," which is by interpretation, Anointed.

³⁹ Jesus said, "I am come unto judgment, into this world: that they which see not, might see, and they which see might be made blind." ⁴⁰ And some of the Pharisees which were with him, heard these words and said unto him, "Are we then blind?" ⁴¹ Jesus said unto them, "If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, 'We see.' Therefore your sin remaineth."

⁴⁶ I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness:

²⁷ For of a truth, against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod and also Pontius Pilate with the gentiles, and the people of Israel, gathered themselves together:

¹⁸ to open their eyes that they might turn from darkness unto light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith in me.'

⁸ Ye were once darkness, but are now light in the Lord. Walk as children of light. ⁹ For the fruit of the spirit is, in all goodness, righteousness, and truth. ¹⁰ Accept that which is pleasing to the Lord, ¹¹ and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness: but rather rebuke them. ¹² For it is shame even to name those things which are done of them in secret: ¹³ but all things, when they are rebuked of the light, are manifest. For whatsoever is manifest, that same is light. ¹⁴ Wherefore he saith, "Awake thou that sleepest, and stand up from death, and Christ shall give thee light."

¹³ Which hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear son,

⁵ Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, neither of darkness. ⁶ Therefore let us not sleep as do others: but let us watch and be sober.

⁵ Hearken, my dear beloved brethren, hath not God chosen the poor of this world, which are rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom, which he promised to them that love him?

⁹ But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, and a peculiar people, that ye should show the virtues of him that called you out of darkness into his marvelous light,

⁸ Again, a new commandment I write unto you, a thing which is true in him, and also in you: for the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth. ⁹ He that saith how that he is in the light, and yet hateth his brother, is in darkness even until this time. ¹⁰ He that loveth his brother, abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of offending in him.

⁸ "'Then number seven weeks of years, that is, seven times seven years: and the space of the seven weeks of years will be unto thee forty nine years. ⁹ And then thou shalt make a horn blow: even in the tenth day of the seventh month, which is the day of atonement. And then shall ye make the horn blow, even throughout all your land. ¹⁰ And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land unto all the inhabiters thereof. It shall be a year of horns blowing unto you and ye shall return: every man unto his possession and every man unto his kindred again. ¹¹ A year of horns blowing shall that fiftieth year be unto you. Ye shall not sow neither reap the corn that groweth by itself, nor gather the grapes that grow without thy labour. ¹² For it is a year of horns blowing and shall be holy unto you: how be it, yet ye shall eat of the increase of the field. ¹³ And in this year of horns blowing ye shall return, every man unto his possession again.

⁵⁰ And he shall reckon with him that bought him, from the year that he was sold in unto the trumpet year, and the price of his buying shall be according unto the number of years, and he shall be with him as a hired servant. ⁵¹ If there be yet many years behind, according unto them he shall give again for his deliverance, of the money that he was sold for. ⁵² If there remain but few years unto the trumpet year, he shall so count with him, and according unto his years give him again for his redemption, ⁵³ and shall be with him year by year as a hired servant, and the other shall not reign cruelly over him in thy sight. ⁵⁴ If he be not bought free in the meantime, then he shall go out in the trumpet year and his children with him;

⁴ And when the free year cometh unto the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance be put unto the inheritance of the tribe where they are in, and so shall their inheritance be taken away from the inheritance of the tribe of our fathers."

² That I might declare the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of the vengeance of our God; that I might comfort all them that are in heaviness.

⁴ For that day of vengeance that I have taken in hand, and the year of my deliverance, is come.

⁴² saying, "If thou hadst known those things which belong unto thy peace, even at thy time: But now are they hid from thine eyes.

¹ We as helpers therefore exhort you, that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.

¹ When he saw the people he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came to him: ² and he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

¹ The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the seaside. ² And much people resorted unto him; so greatly that he went and sat in a ship, and all the people stood on the shore.

²⁶ It shall not be so among you: But whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister, ²⁷ and whosoever will be chief, let him be your servant. ²⁸ Even as the son of man came, not to be ministered unto, but to minister: and to give his life for the redemption of many."

⁵⁵ The same time said Jesus to the multitude, "Ye be come out as it were unto a thief, with swords and staves for to take me: daily I sat among you teaching in the temple, and ye took me not.

¹⁷ And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when he had opened the book, he found the place, where it was written,

³ And he entered into one of the ships, which pertained to Simon, and prayed him, that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the people out of the ship.

⁴⁸ but could not find what to do. For all the people stuck by him. And gave him audience.

² and early in the morning came again into the temple. And all the people came unto him; And he sat down, and taught them.

¹² When Peter saw that, he answered unto the people, "Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? Or why look ye so steadfastly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man go?

¹³ And on the Sabbath days, we went out of the city besides a river where men were wont to pray, and we sat down and spake unto the women which thither resorted.

¹⁴ And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which prophecy saith, 'With the ears ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and with the eyes ye shall see, and shall not perceive."

²³ And he turned to his disciples, and said, secretly, "Happy are the eyes, which see that ye see. ²⁴ For I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them: And to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them."

²⁵ The woman said unto him, "I know well Messiah shall come, which is called Christ. When he is once come, he will tell us all things." ²⁶ Jesus said unto her, "I that speak unto thee, am he."

³⁹ Search the scriptures: for in them, ye think ye have eternal life; and they are they which testify of me.

¹⁶ but this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel, ¹⁷ 'It shall be in the last days, saith God, of my spirit I will pour out upon all flesh. And your sons, and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions. And your old men shall dream dreams. ¹⁸ And on my servants, and on my handmaidens I will pour out of my spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy.

²⁹ "Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David: For he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre remaineth with us unto his day. ³⁰ Therefore seeing he was a prophet, and knew that God had sworn with an oath to him, that the fruit of his loins should sit on his seat — in that Christ should rise again in the flesh - ³¹ He saw before, and spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul should not be left in hell: neither his flesh should see corruption. ³² This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. ³³ Since now that he by the righthand of God exalted is, and hath received of the father the promise of the holy ghost, he hath shed forth that which ye now see and hear.

¹⁸ But those things which God before had showed by the mouth of all his prophets, how that Christ should suffer, he hath thus wise fulfilled it.

² Thou art the fairest among the children of men; full of grace are thy lips, because God hath blessed thee for ever.

⁴ Good luck have thou with thine honour; ride on with the truth, meekness and righteousness: and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.

³² The lips of the righteous are occupied in acceptable things; but the mouth of the ungodly taketh them to the worst.

²¹ Whoso hath a wise understanding is called to counsel; but he that can speak fair, getteth more riches.

¹¹ A word spoken in due season, is like apples of gold in a silver dish.

¹⁰ His diligence was to find out acceptable words, right scripture, and the words of truth. ¹¹ For the words of the wise are like pricks and nails that go through, wherewith men are kept together: for they are given of one shepherd only.

¹⁶ His throat is sweet; yea, he is altogether lovely. Such one is my love, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, such one is my love.

⁵⁴ and came in to his own country, and taught them in their synagogues, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, "Whence cometh all this wisdom and power unto him? ⁵⁵ Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? And his brethren be called, James and Joseph and Simon and Judas? ⁵⁶ And are not his sisters all here with us? Whence hath he all these things?"

⁴⁷ And all that heard him marveled at his wit and answers.

¹⁵ For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, where against all your adversaries shall not be able to speak nor resist.

⁴² And they said, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father, and mother we know? How is it then that he sayeth, I came down from heaven?"

⁴⁶ The servants answered, "Never man spake as this man doeth."

¹⁰ And they could not resist the wisdom, and the spirit, with which he spake.

⁸ and with the wholesome word which cannot be rebuked, that he which withstandeth may be ashamed, having no thing in you that he may dispraise.

¹³ and left Nazareth, and went and dwelt in Capernaum, which is a city upon the sea in the coasts of Zebulun and Naphtali:

²³ And thou, Capernaum, which art lift up unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the miracles, which have been done in thee, had been showed in Sodom, they had remained to this day. ²⁴ Nevertheless, I say unto you, It shall be easier for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee."

²¹ And they entered into Capernaum, and straightway on the Sabbath days he entered into the synagogue and taught. ²² And they marveled at his learning. For he taught them as one that had power with him, and not as the scribes did. ²³ And there was in their synagogue, a man vexed with an unclean spirit, and that cried ²⁴ saying, "Let me be: what have we to do with thou, Jesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy us? I know thee, what thou art, thou art even that holy man promised of God." ²⁵ And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Hold thy peace and come out of him." ²⁶ And the unclean spirit tare him, and cried out with a loud voice, and came out of him. ²⁷ And they were all amazed, insomuch that they demanded one of another among themselves, saying, "What thing is this? What new doctrine is this? For he commandeth the foul spirits with power, and they obey him." ²⁸ And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region bordering on Galilee.

¹ After a few days he entered into Capernaum again, and it was noised that he was in a house: ² And anon many gathered together, insomuch that now there was no room to receive them: no, not so much as about the door. And he preached the word unto them. ³ And there came unto him, that brought one sick of the palsy, borne of four men: ⁴ and because they could not come nigh unto him for press, they uncovered the roof of the house where he was. And when they had broken it open, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay. ⁵ When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the sick of the palsy, "Son, thy sins are forgiven thee." ⁶ And there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, ⁷ "How doth this fellow so blaspheme? Who can forgive sins, but God only?" ⁸ And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit, that they so reasoned in themselves, he said unto them, "Why think ye such things in your hearts? ⁹ Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy; thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, arise, take up thy bed and walk? ¹⁰ That ye may know that the son of man hath power in earth to forgive sins," he spake unto the sick of the palsy, ¹¹ "I say unto thee, Arise and take up thy bed, and get thee hence into thine own house." ¹² And by and by he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all: insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God saying, "We never saw it on this fashion."

¹ And he departed thence, and came into his own country, and his disciples followed him.

⁴² Either, how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye: when thou perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Hypocrite, cast out the beam out of thine own eye first, and then shalt thou see perfectly, to pull out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

³ And when the wine failed, Jesus' mother said unto him, "They have no wine." ⁴ Jesus said unto her, "Woman, what have I to do with thee? Mine hour is not yet come."

²⁸ The woman then left her water pot behind her, and went her way into the city, and said to the men there,

⁴⁶ And Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he turned water into wine. And there was a certain ruler, whose son was sick at Capernaum. ⁴⁷ As soon as the same heard that Jesus was come out of Jewry, into Galilee, he went unto him, and besought him, that he would descend, and heal his son: For he was even ready to die. ⁴⁸ Then said Jesus unto him, "Except ye see signs and wonders, ye cannot believe." ⁴⁹ The ruler said unto him, "Sir, come away or ever that my child die." ⁵⁰ Jesus said unto him, "Go thy way, thy son liveth." And the man believed the words that Jesus had spoken unto him, and went his way. ⁵¹ And anon as he went on his way, his servants met him, and told him, saying, "Thy child liveth." ⁵² Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, "Yesterday, the seventh hour, the fever left him." ⁵³ And the father knew that it was the same hour in which Jesus said unto him, "Thy son liveth." And he believed, and all his household.

³ His brethren therefore said unto him, "Get thee hence and go into Jewry that thy disciples may see thy works that thou doest. ⁴ For there is no man that doeth any thing secretly, and he himself seeketh to be known. If thou do such things, show thyself to the world."

²¹ But thou which teachest another, teachest not thyself. Thou preachest, a man should not steal: and yet thou stealest. ²² Thou sayest, a man should not commit adultery: and thou breakest wedlock.

³⁴ For who hath known the mind of the Lord? Or who was his counselor? ³⁵ Other who hath given unto him first, that he might be recompensed again?

¹⁶ Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh. Insomuch that though we have known Christ after the flesh, now henceforth know we him so no more.

⁵⁷ And they were offended by him. Then Jesus said unto them, "A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and among his own kin."

⁴ And Jesus said unto them, "A prophet is not despised but in his own country, and among his own kin, and among them that are of the same household." ⁵ And he could there show no miracles, but laid his hands upon a few sick folk and healed them.

⁴¹ And many more believed because of his own words,

⁴⁴ And Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath none honour in his own country.

³ And he said, "I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia: nevertheless yet brought up in this city, at the feet of Gamaliel, and informed diligently in the law of the fathers, and was fervent minded to Godward, as ye all are this same day,

¹⁸ And saw him saying unto me, 'Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy witness that thou bearest of me.' ¹⁹ And I said, 'Lord they know that I prisoned, and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee. ²⁰ And when the blood of thy witness Stephen was shed, I also stood by, and consented unto his death and kept the raiment of them that slew him.' ²¹ And he said unto me, 'Depart for I will send thee afar hence unto the gentiles.'" ²² They gave him audience unto this word, and then lifted up their voices and said, "Away with such a fellow from the earth: it is pity that he should live."

¹ And Elijah the Tishbite, which was of the inhabiters of Gilead, said unto Ahab, "As truly as the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall be neither dew nor rain these years, save as I appoint it."

¹ And at the last, the word of the LORD came to Elijah the third year, saying, "Go show thyself unto Ahab, that I may send rain upon the earth." ² And Elijah went to show himself unto Ahab, for there was a great famishment in Samaria.

⁸ For thus sayeth the LORD: My thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not my ways.

¹⁵ Is it not lawful for me to do as me listeth, with mine own? Is thine eye evil because I am good?

²⁶ The woman was a Greek out of Syrophoenicia, and she besought him that he would cast out the devil out of her daughter. ²⁷ And Jesus said unto her, "Let the children first be fed. For it is not meet, to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto whelps." ²⁸ She answered and said unto him, "Even so, Master. Nevertheless, the whelps also eat under the table of the children's crumbs." ²⁹ And he said unto her, "For this saying, go thy way, the devil is gone out of thy daughter."

²¹ That same time rejoiced Jesus in the holy ghost, and said, "I confess unto thee father Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast opened them to the babes. Even so, father, for so pleased it thee.

¹⁵ For he saith to Moses, "I will show mercy to whom I show mercy: And will have compassion on whom I have compassion."

²⁰ But O man what art thou, which disputest with God? Shall the work say to the workman, "Why hast thou made me on this fashion?"

⁹ And hath opened unto us the mystery of his will according to his pleasure, and purposed

¹¹ in whom we are made heirs, and were thereto predestinate according to the purpose of him which worketh all things after the purpose of his own will:

¹⁷ Elijah was a man, mortal even as we are, and he prayed in his prayer, that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.

⁹ "Up, and get thee to Zarephath a city of Sidon, and dwell there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to sustain thee." ¹⁰ And he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, there was a widow there gathering sticks. And he called to her and said, "Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a dish that I may drink." ¹¹ And as she went to fetch it, he cried to her and said, "Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand." ¹² And she answered, "As surely as the LORD thy God liveth, I have no bread, but even a handful of meal in a pitcher, and a little oil in a cruse. And see, I have gathered a few sticks for to go and bake it for me and my son, that we may eat it and then die." ¹³ And Elijah said unto her, "Fear not, but go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first of all, and bring it out to me, and afterward make for thee and thy son. ¹⁴ For thus sayeth the LORD God of Israel, 'The pitcher of meal shall not be wasted, neither shall thy oil cruse be without oil, until the LORD have sent rain upon the earth.'" ¹⁵ And she went and did as Elijah bade. And she and he and her house did eat a good space, ¹⁶ and the pitcher of meal wasted not neither was the oil cruse without oil according to the word of the LORD which he spake through Elijah. ¹⁷ And after these things, it happened that the son of the wife of the house fell sick. And his sickness was so sore, that there was no breath left in him. ¹⁸ Then said she unto Elijah, "What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? Art thou come unto me, that my sin should be thought on and my son slain?" ¹⁹ And Elijah said unto her, "Give me thy son." And he took him out of her lap and carried him up into a loft where he lay, and laid him upon his own bed, ²⁰ and called unto the LORD and said, "O LORD my God, hast thou been so evil unto the widow with whom I sojourn, that thou hast slain her son?" ²¹ And he stretched himself upon the lad three times, and called unto the LORD and said, "O LORD my God, let the lad's soul come into him again." ²² And the LORD heard the voice of Elijah, and the soul of the lad came into him again and he revived. ²³ And Elijah took the boy and brought him down out of the chamber into the house and delivered him unto his mother and said, "See, thy son liveth." ²⁴ Then the wife said to Elijah, "Now I know that thou art God's man, and that the word of the LORD in thy mouth is truth."

²⁰ And this host shall be the children of Israel's prisoners: Now whatso lieth from Canaan unto Zarephath, and in Sepharad, that shall be under the subjection of Jerusalem: and the cities of the south shall inherit it.

²¹ "Woe be to thee, Chorazsin! Woe be to thee, Bethsaida! for if the miracles, which were showed in you, had been done in Tyre and in Sidon: they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.

¹⁹ And he departed thence and found Elisha the son of Shaphat plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelve. And Elijah went to him and cast his mantle upon him. ²⁰ And he left the oxen and ran after Elijah and said, "Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and mother, and then I will follow thee." And he said to him, "Go back again, for what have I done to thee?" ²¹ And he went back again from after him, and took a yoke of oxen and slew them, and dressed the flesh with the instruments of the oxen and gave it the people, and they did eat. And then he arose and went after Elijah and ministered unto him.

¹ Naaman, captain of the Host to the king of Syria, was great with his master and well taken: for through him the LORD saved Syria. And he was an active man, and yet a leper. ² And there had gone a company of soldiers out of Syria a running, and had brought out of the country of Israel a little maid, which was with Naaman's wife. ³ And the Damsel said unto her lady, "I would my master were with a prophet that is in Samaria: he would deliver him of his leprosy." ⁴ And she went and told her husband, saying, "Thus and thus sayeth the maid that is out of the land of Israel." ⁵ And the king of Syria said, "Go thy way, and I will send a letter unto the king of Israel." And he went and took with him ten talents of silver and six thousand pieces of gold, and ten changes of raiments. ⁶ And he brought the letter to the king of Israel containing this tenor, "Now when this letter is come up to thee: Behold, I have sent Naaman my servant to thee, that thou shouldest rid him of his leprosy." ⁷ And when the king of Israel had read the letter, he rent his clothes and said, "Am I God, to slay and to make alive, that he should send to me, for to deliver a man from his leprosy? But consider, I pray you, and see how he picketh quarrels with me!" ⁸ And when Elisha the man of God, heard how that the king of Israel had rent his clothes, he sent to the king, saying, "Wherefore hast thou rent thy clothes? Let him come to me, that he may know that there is a prophet in Israel." ⁹ And Naaman came with his horses and his chariot, and stood at the door of Elisha. ¹⁰ Then Elisha sent a messenger, saying, "Go and wash thee in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee as before, and thou shalt be clean." ¹¹ And Naaman was wroth and went away, and said, "Behold, I thought in myself, he would have come out, and stand and call on the name of the LORD his God, and put his hand on the place of the disease, and so take away the leprosy. ¹² Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Might I not rather wash in them and be clean?" And so he turned and departed in an anger. ¹³ Then came his servants and communed with him, and said, "Father if the prophet had bid thee done some great thing, oughtest thou not to have done it? How much rather then shouldest thou do it, while he sayeth to thee only, 'Wash and be clean?'" ¹⁴ Then he went down and washed seven times in Jordan, as the man of God bade, and his flesh changed, like unto the flesh of a little boy, and he was clean. ¹⁵ Then he turned again to the man of God and all his company with him, and came and stood before him and said, "Behold, I know that there is no God in all the world, but in Israel. And now, I pray thee, take a blessing of thy servant." ¹⁶ But he said, "As surely as the LORD liveth before whom I stand, I will receive none." And the other would have constrained him to receive: but he would not do it. ¹⁷ And Naaman said, "If thou wilt not: yet I pray thee, may there not be given to thy servant the burden of two mules of earth? For thy servant will henceforth offer neither burnt sacrifice nor offering unto any other God, than to the LORD. ¹⁸ But herein the LORD be merciful to thy servant, for when my master goeth into the house of Rimmon to worship there, he leaneth on mine hand, and I must worship in the house of Rimmon: Let the LORD, I pray thee, be merciful unto thy servant in this case." ¹⁹ And he said to him, "Go in peace." ²⁰ And when he was departed from him a furlong of ground, Gehazi the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, "Behold, my master hath spared Naaman, this Syrian, so that he hath not taken from him that which he brought! As surely as the LORD liveth, I will run after him and take somewhat." ²¹ And so Gehazi went after Naaman. And when Naaman saw him coming after him, he came down off the chariot against him, and said, "Is all well?" ²² And he said, "Yea. But my master hath sent me, saying, 'See, there be two young men come to me out of Ephraim of the children of the prophets: give them, I pray thee, one talent of silver and a couple of good garments." ²³ And Naaman said, "Adventure and take two talents of silver in two bags, with two goodly garments." — and delivered them unto two of his servants, to bear it before him. ²⁴ And he went in the dark and took it of their hands and bestowed it in the house, and let the men go, and they departed. ²⁵ Then he went and stood before his master. And Elisha said to him, "Whence cometh Gehazi?" And he said, "Thy servant went no whither." ²⁶ And he said, "Went not mine heart with thee, when the man turned and came of his chariot against thee? Is it a time to receive silver and to receive garments, olive trees, vineyards, oxen, sheep, menservants and maidservants? ²⁷ The leprosy therefore of Naaman cleave unto thee, and unto thy seed forever." And he went out from him a leper as white as snow.

²² Inasmuch then as God hath the highest power of all, who can teach him any knowledge?

¹³ Why dost thou then strive against him? Because he giveth thee no accounts of all his doings?

²³ Who will reprove him of his way? Who will say unto him, 'Thou hast done wrong?'

³⁵ in comparison of whom, all they that dwell upon the earth are to be reputed as nothing. He handleth according to his will, among the powers of heaven and among the inhabiters of the earth - and there is none that may resist his hand, or say, 'What doest thou?'

⁴ How he entered into the house of God, and ate the hallowed loaves, which were not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests.

¹² While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name. Those that thou gavest me, have I kept, and none of them is lost, but that lost child: that the scripture might be fulfilled.

¹⁰ Whereupon Asa was wroth with the seer and put him in the converting house, for he was displeased with him because of that. Moreover Asa oppressed certain of the people the same season.

²⁰ And the spirit of God came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, and he stepped up above the people and said to them, "Thus sayeth God: 'Why transgress ye the commandments of the LORD? Ye shall therefore not prosper, but as ye have forsaken him, so shall he forsake you.'" ²¹ Whereupon they conspired against him and stoned him with stones, at the commandment of the king: even in the court of the house of the LORD.

¹⁵ Wherefore the princes were angry with Jeremiah, causing him to be beaten, and to be laid in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe. For he was the ruler of the prison. ¹⁶ Thus was Jeremiah put into the dungeon and prison, and so lay there a long time.

⁶ Then took they Jeremiah, and cast him into the dungeon of Malchiah the son of Hammelech, that dwelt in the fore entry of the prison. And they let down Jeremiah with cords into a dungeon, where there was no water, but mire.

¹¹ And they were filled full of madness, and communed one with another, what they might do to Jesus.

⁵³ When he thus spake unto them, the lawyers and the Pharisees began to wax busy about him, and to stop his mouth with many questions; ⁵⁴ Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something of his mouth, whereby they might accuse him.

³³ When they heard that, they clave asunder, and sought means to slay them.

⁵⁴ When they heard these things, their hearts clave asunder, and they gnashed on him with their teeth.

²¹ And he said unto me, 'Depart for I will send thee afar hence unto the gentiles.'" ²² They gave him audience unto this word, and then lifted up their voices and said, "Away with such a fellow from the earth: it is pity that he should live." ²³ And as they cried and cast off their clothes, and threw dust into the air,

¹⁵ which as they killed the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, even so have they persecuted us, and God they please not, and are contrary to all men: ¹⁶ and forbid us to preach unto the gentiles, that they might be saved, to fulfill their sins always: For the wrath of God is come on them, even to the utmost.

³⁵ And the LORD said unto Moses, "The man shall die: let all the multitude stone him with stones without the host."

¹² And other ten thousand the children of Judah took alive, and carried them unto the top of a rock and cast them down from the top of the rock that they all to burst:

¹⁴ The ungodly have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the simple and poor, and to slay such as are of a right conversation.

³² The ungodly watcheth the righteous, and seeketh occasion to slay him. ³³ But the LORD will not leave him in his hands, nor condemn him when he is judged.

³⁷ I know that ye are Abraham's seed: but ye seek means to kill me because my sayings have no place in you.

⁴⁰ But now ye go about to kill me, a man that have told you the truth, which I have heard of God: This did not Abraham.

⁵⁹ Then took they up stones, to cast at him. But Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.

²⁴ If I had not done works among them which none other man did, they had not had sin. But now have they seen, and yet have hated both me and my father: ²⁵ Even that the saying might be fulfilled that is written in their law, 'They hated me without a cause.'

⁵⁷ Then they gave a shout with a loud voice, and stopped their ears and all ran upon him at once, ⁵⁸ and cast him out of the city, and stoned him. And the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, named Saul.

²³ and when they had beaten them sore, they cast them into prison commanding the jailer to keep them surely. ²⁴ Which jailer, when he had received such commandment, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.

²⁸ "Men of Israel, help. This is the man that teacheth all men everywhere against the people, and the law, and this place. Moreover also he hath brought Greeks into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place." ²⁹ For they saw one Trophimus, an Ephesian, with him in the city: Him they supposed Paul had brought into the temple. ³⁰ And all the city was moved, and the people swarmed together. And they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple, and forthwith the doors were shut to. ³¹ As they went about to kill him, tidings came unto the high captain of the soldiers, that all Jerusalem was moved. ³² Which immediately took soldiers and under-captains, and ran down unto them. When they saw the upper-captain and the soldiers; They left smiting of Paul.

¹² Therefore Jesus, to sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.

³⁹ Again they went about to take him, but he escaped out of their hands,

⁶ But as soon as he had said unto them, "I am he," they went backwards and fell to the ground. ⁷ And he asked them again, "Whom seek ye?" They said, "Jesus of Nazareth."

¹⁸ As soon as it was day there was no little ado among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.

²³ When they persecute you in one city, fly into another: I tell you for a truth, ye shall not finish all the cities of Israel, till the son of man be come.

²³ And he said unto them, "Ye may very well say unto me this proverb. 'Physician, heal thyself. Whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do the same here likewise in thine own country.'"

⁵⁰ But the Jews moved the worshipful and honorable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas: and expelled them out of their coasts.

⁶ they were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about, ⁷ and there preached the gospel.

¹⁹ Thither came certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, and obtained the peoples' consent, and stoned Paul: and drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead. ²⁰ Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he arose up and came into the city. And the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe. ²¹ After they had preached to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium and Antioch,

¹ As they made their journey through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica where was a synagogue of the Jews. ² And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them: and three Sabbath days declared out of the scripture unto them, ³ opening and alleging that Christ must needs have suffered and risen again from death. And that this Jesus was Christ, whom, said he, "I preach to you."

¹⁰ And the brethren immediately sent away Paul, and Silas by night unto Berea. Which, when they were come thither, they entered into the Synagogue of the Jews. ¹¹ These were the noblest of birth among them of Thessalonica, which received the word with all diligence of mind, and searched the scriptures daily whether those things were even so.

¹⁶ While Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was moved in him to see the city given to worshipping of images. ¹⁷ Then he disputed in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the devout persons; And in the market daily with them that came unto him.

⁴ And he preached in the synagogue every Sabbath day; And exhorted the Jews and the gentiles.

¹ After the rage was ceased, Paul called the disciples unto him, and took his leave of them, and departed for to go into Macedonia. ² And when he had gone over those parts, and given them large exhortations, he came into Greece:

²³ but that the holy ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and trouble abide me. ²⁴ But none of those things move me. Neither is my life dear unto myself; that I might fulfill my course with joy, and the ministration which I have received of the Lord Jesus to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

²⁸ The prophet that hath a dream, let him tell it: and he that understandeth my word, let him show it faithfully. For what hath chaff and wheat to do together, sayeth the LORD? ²⁹ Is not my word like a fire, sayeth the LORD, and like a hammer that breaketh the hard stone?

²⁸ And it came to pass, that when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: ²⁹ For he taught them as one having power, and not as the scribes.

²² And they marveled at his learning. For he taught them as one that had power with him, and not as the scribes did.

³⁶ And fear came on them all; And they spake among themselves, saying, "What manner a thing is this? For with authority and power he commandeth the foul spirits and they come out."

⁶³ It is the spirit that quickeneth, the flesh profiteth nothing. The words that I speak unto you are spirit and life.

⁴ And my words, and my preaching were not with enticing words of man's wisdom: but in showing of the spirit and of power, ⁵ that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men: but in the power of God.

²⁴ But and if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is rebuked of all men, and is judged of every man; ²⁵ and so are the secrets of his heart opened: and so falleth he down on his face, and worshippeth God, and saith that God is with you indeed.

² but have cast from us the cloaks of unhonesty, and walk not in craftiness, neither corrupt we the word of God: but walk in open truth, and report ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

⁴ For the weapons of our war are not carnal things, but things mighty in God to cast down strongholds; ⁵ wherewith we overthrow imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bring into captivity all understanding to the obedience of Christ,

⁵ For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and also in the holy ghost and in much certainty, as ye know after what manner we behaved ourselves among you, for your sakes.

¹⁵ These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke, with all commanding. See that no man despise thee.

¹² for the word of God is quick, and mighty in operation, and sharper than any two edged sword: and entereth through, even unto the dividing asunder of the soul and the spirit and of the joints, and the marrow: and judgeth the thoughts and the intents of the heart. ¹³ Neither is there any creature invisible in the sight of it. For all things are naked and bare unto the eyes of him, of whom we speak.

²³ And there was in their synagogue, a man vexed with an unclean spirit, and that cried

¹⁰ For why? Thou shalt not leave my soul in hell, neither shalt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption.

²⁴ saying, "Let me be: what have we to do with thou, Jesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy us? I know thee, what thou art, thou art even that holy man promised of God."

³⁴ and he healed many that were sick of divers diseases. And he cast out many devils; and suffered them not to speak, because they knew him.

⁷ and cried with a loud voice and said, "What have I to do with thee, Jesus the son of the most highest God? I require thee in the name of God, that thou torment me not."

³⁵ And the angel answered, and said unto her, "The holy ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the highest shall overshadow thee. Therefore also that holy thing which shall be born, shall be called the son of God.

⁴¹ And devils also came out of many of them, crying and saying, "Thou art Christ the son of God." And he rebuked them, and suffered them not to speak, for they knew that he was Christ.

³⁷ And all the whole multitude of the country of the Gaderenites, besought him that he would depart from them: for they were taken with great fear. And he gat him into the ship and returned back again.

²⁷ because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt suffer thine holy to see corruption.

¹⁴ but ye denied the holy and just, and desired a murderer to be given you,

³⁹ and came and besought them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the city.

¹⁴ Forasmuch, then, as the children were partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part with them, for to put down through death him that had lordship over death: that is to say, the devil.

¹⁹ Believest thou that there is one God? Thou doest well. The devils also believe and tremble.

⁸ He that committeth sin is of the devil: for the devil sinneth since the beginning. But for this cause appeared the son of God, even to destroy the works of the devil.

⁷ "And write unto the tidings-bringer of the congregation of Philadelphia, 'This saith he that is holy and true, which hath the key of David; which openeth and no man shutteth, and shutteth and no man openeth.

² And he took the dragon, that old serpent which is the devil and Satan, and he bound him a thousand years:

¹⁶ But unto the ungodly sayeth God, "Why dost thou preach my laws, and takest my covenant in thy mouth,

² And the LORD said unto Satan, 'The LORD reprove thee, thou Satan; yea, the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem, reprove thee. Is not this a brand taken out of the fire?'

²⁶ And he said unto them, "Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?" Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there followed a great calm.

¹⁸ And Jesus rebuked the devil, and he came out of him: and the child was healed even that same hour.

²⁶ And the unclean spirit tare him, and cried out with a loud voice, and came out of him.

¹¹ And when the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him, and cried saying, "Thou art the son of God." ¹² And he straightly charged them that they should not utter him.

²⁶ And the spirit cried, and rent him sore and came out: And he was as one that had been dead, insomuch that many said, "He is dead."

³⁹ And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever: and it left her. And immediately she arose and ministered unto them.

²⁴ And they went to him and awoke him, saying, "Master, Master, we are lost." Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the tempest of water: and they ceased, and it waxed calm.

³⁹ and see, a spirit taketh him, and suddenly he crieth, and he teareth him that he foameth again, and with much pain departeth he from him, when he hath rent him:

⁴² As he yet was a coming, the fiend rent him, and tare him. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him to his father.

²² But when a stronger than he cometh upon him, and overcometh him: he taketh from him, his harness, wherein he trusted, and divideth his goods.

¹⁷ The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, "These men are the servants of the most high God, which show unto us the way of salvation." ¹⁸ And this did she many days. But Paul, not content, turned about and said to the spirit, "I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ that thou come out of her." And he came out the same hour.

¹² Therefore rejoice heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth, and of the sea: for the devil is come down unto you, which hath great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time."

³³ And as soon as the devil was cast out, the dumb spake. And the people marveled, saying, "It was never so seen in Israel."

²² Then was brought to him one possessed with a devil, which was both blind and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that he which was blind and dumb, both spake and saw. ²³ And all the people were amazed, and said, "Is not this the son of David?"

³⁷ And were beyond measure astonished, saying, "He hath done all things well, and hath made both the deaf to hear and the dumb to speak."

¹⁷ And these signs shall follow them that believe: In my name they shall cast out devils, and shall speak with new tongues, ¹⁸ and shall kill serpents. And if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them. They shall lay their hands on the sick, and they shall recover." ¹⁹ So then when the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received into heaven, and is set down on the righthand of God. ²⁰ And they went forth, and preached everywhere. And the Lord wrought with them; And confirmed the word with miracles that followed.

³² And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his preaching was with power.

¹⁷ And the seventy returned again with joy saying, Lord, even the very devils are subdued to us through thy name. ¹⁸ And he said unto them, "I saw Satan, as it had been lightning, fall down from heaven. ¹⁹ Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents, and scorpions, and over all manner power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you. ²⁰ Nevertheless, in this rejoice not, that the spirits are under your power: But rejoice because your names are written in heaven."

¹² So that from his body were brought unto the sick, napkins or partlets, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them. ¹³ Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus saying, "We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth." ¹⁴ And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew and chief of the priests, which did so: ¹⁵ and the evil spirit answered and said, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know: but who are ye?" ¹⁶ And the man in whom the evil spirit was, ran on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

²² which is our righthand of God, and is gone into heaven: angels, power, and might subdued unto him.

¹³ Behold, my servant shall deal wisely, therefore shall he be magnified, exalted and greatly honored.

¹⁴ And king Herod heard of him, for his name was spread abroad; And he said, "John Baptist is risen again from death, and therefore miracles are wrought by him."

¹⁴ And then Jesus went to Peter's house, and saw his wife's mother lying, sick of a fever. ¹⁵ And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.

²³ And he gave her never a word to answer. Then came to him his disciples, and besought him saying, "Send her away, for she followeth us crying."

²⁹ And forthwith, as soon as they were come out of the Synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew with James and John. ³⁰ And Simon's mother-in-law lay sick of a fever, and anon they told him of her. ³¹ And he came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and the fever forsook her by and by: And she ministered unto them.

³ And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant. ⁴ And they came to Jesus and besought him instantly, saying, "He is worthy that thou shouldest do this for him.

³ and his sisters sent unto him, saying, "Lord behold, he whom thou lovest is sick."

²² but nevertheless, I know that whatsoever thou askest of God, God will give it thee."

⁵ Either, have we not power to lead about a sister to wife as well as other apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?

¹⁴ If any be diseased among you, let him call for the elders of the congregation, and let them pray over him, and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord: ¹⁵ and the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up: and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

¹² What reward shall I give unto the LORD, for all the benefits that he hath done unto me?

³⁵ And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Hold thy peace, and come out of him." And the devil threw him in the midst of them and came out of him, and hurt him not.

² And also certain women, which were healed of evil spirits, and infirmities: Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils, ³ and Joanna the wife of Chuzaa, Herod's steward; And Susanna; And many others: which ministered unto them of their substance.

¹⁴ For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, if one be dead for all, that then are all dead: ¹⁵ and that he died for all, because that they which live, should not henceforth live unto themselves: but unto him which died for them and rose again.

²³ And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healed all manner of sickness and all manner diseases among the people. ²⁴ And his fame spread abroad throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and gripings, and them that were possessed with devils and those which were lunatic and those that had the palsy: and he healed them.

¹⁶ When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all that were sick: ¹⁷ to fulfill that which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying, "He took on him our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses."

¹³ When Jesus had heard that, he departed thence by ship into a desert place out of the way. And when the people had heard thereof, they followed him afoot out of their cities.

³² And at even, when the sun was down, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils, ³³ and all the city gathered together at the door, ³⁴ and he healed many that were sick of divers diseases. And he cast out many devils; and suffered them not to speak, because they knew him.

¹⁰ For he had healed many, insomuch that they pressed upon him, for to touch him, as many as had plagues.

²³ and besought him greatly saying, "My daughter lieth at point of death, I would thou wouldst come and lay thy hand on her, that she might be safe and live."

⁵ And he could there show no miracles, but laid his hands upon a few sick folk and healed them.

⁵⁵ and ran forth throughout all the region round about, and began to carry about in beds all that were sick, to place where they heard tell that he was there. ⁵⁶ And whithersoever he entered into the towns, or cities, or villages, they laid their sick in the streets, and prayed him, that they might touch and it were but the edge of his vesture. And as many as touched him were safe.

²¹ And at the same time, he cured many of their infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits: and unto many that were blind, he gave sight. ²² And Jesus answered, and said unto them, "Go your ways and show John, what things ye have heard and seen: how that the blind see, the halt go, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead arise: To the poor is the glad tidings preached, ²³ and happy is he that is not offended by me."

¹⁵ insomuch that they brought the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and pallets: that at the least way the shadow of Peter, when he came by, might shadow some of them.

¹² So that from his body were brought unto the sick, napkins or partlets, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.

⁶³ But Jesus held his peace. And the chief priest answered, and said to him, "I charge thee in the name of the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be Christ the son of God."

²⁵ And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Hold thy peace and come out of him."

¹¹ And when the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him, and cried saying, "Thou art the son of God."

³⁴ saying, "Let me alone, what hast thou to do with us, thou Jesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy us? I know thee what thou art, even the Holy of God." ³⁵ And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Hold thy peace, and come out of him." And the devil threw him in the midst of them and came out of him, and hurt him not.

³¹ These are written that ye might believe that Jesus is Christ the son of God. And that ye in believing ye might have life through his name.

¹³ When Jesus had heard that, he departed thence by ship into a desert place out of the way. And when the people had heard thereof, they followed him afoot out of their cities. ¹⁴ And Jesus went forth and saw much people: and his heart did melt upon them, and he healed of them those that were sick.

³⁵ And in the morning, very early, Jesus arose and went out into a solitary place, and there prayed. ³⁶ And Simon and they that were with him followed after him. ³⁷ And when they had found him, they said unto him, "All men seek for thee." ³⁸ And he said unto them, "Let us go in to the next towns, that I may preach there also: for truly I came out for that purpose.

³³ But the people spied them when they departed: and many knew him, and they ran afoot thither out of all cities, and came thither before them; And came together unto him. ³⁴ And Jesus went out and saw much people, and had compassion on them, because they were like sheep which had no shepherd. And he began to teach them many things.

¹² And it fortuned in those days, that he went out into a mountain for to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.

³⁷ And all the whole multitude of the country of the Gaderenites, besought him that he would depart from them: for they were taken with great fear. And he gat him into the ship and returned back again. ³⁸ Then the man out of whom the devils were departed, besought him that he might be with him: But Jesus sent him away, saying,

²⁹ But they constrained him, saying, "Abide with us: for it draweth towards night, and the day is far passed." And he went in to tarry with them.

³⁴ Jesus said unto them, "My meat is to do the will of him that sent me. And to finish his work.

⁴⁰ Then, when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them. And he abode there two days.

²⁴ Then when the people saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping and came to Capernaum seeking for Jesus.

¹⁶ Come nigh and hear this: have I spoken anything darkly since the beginning? When a thing beginneth, I am there. Wherefore the LORD God with his spirit hath sent me;

¹⁴ After that John was taken, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, ¹⁵ and saying, "The time is full come, and the kingdom of God is even at hand. Repent, and believe the gospel."

³⁸ And he said unto them, "Let us go in to the next towns, that I may preach there also: for truly I came out for that purpose. ³⁹ And he preached in their synagogues, throughout all Galilee, and cast the devils out.

³⁸ For I came down from heaven: not to do mine own will, but his will which hath sent me. ³⁹ And this is the father's will which hath sent me: that of all which he hath given me, I should lose nothing; but should raise it up again at the last day. ⁴⁰ And this is the will of him that sent me: That every man which seeth the son, and believeth on him, have everlasting life. And I will raise him up at the last day."

⁴ I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day. The night cometh, when no man can work.

²¹ Then Jesus said unto them again, "Peace be with you. As my father sent me, even so send I you."

² Preach the word, be fervent; be it in season, or out of season. Improve, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.
