⁴ Have we no right to eat, and to drink? ⁵ Have we no right to lead about a sister as our wife, even as the rest of the apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas? ⁶ Or have only I and Barnabas no right to give up working? ⁷ Who ever serves as a soldier at his own charges; Who plants a vineyard, and eats not of its fruit? Or who feeds a flock, and eats not of the milk of the flock? ⁸ Do I speak these things after the manner of man?

¹³ And, at the same time, they learn to be idle, going around from house to house, and not only idle, but tattlers also and busy-bodies, speaking things which they ought not.

⁶ The toiling husbandman must first partake of the fruits.

⁵ Beloved, you do a faithful work, in whatsoever you do to the brethren, and that to strangers, ⁶ who testified to your love before the assembly; whom sending forward worthily of God, you will do well; ⁷ for on behalf of His name they went forth, taking nothing from the gentiles. ⁸ We ought, therefore, to welcome such persons, that we may become fellow-workers for the truth.

⁴⁰ "He that receives you receives Me; and he that receives Me receives Him Who sent Me.

⁴⁸ and said to them, "Whosoever shall receive this child in My name, receives Me; and whosoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me; for he that is least among you all, the same is great."

³ Jesus answered, and said to him, "Verily, verily, I say to you, unless one be born anew, he cannot see the Kingdom of God."

⁵ Jesus answered, "Verily, verily, I say to you, unless one be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.

⁷ Now, in the districts round about that place, were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, by name Publius; who, receiving us, entertained us hospitably three days. ⁸ And it happened that the father of Publius was lying prostrate, afflicted with fever and dysentery; to whom Paul coming, and praying, laying his hands on him, healed him. ⁹ And, when this happened, the others also, who had diseases in the island, were coming to him, and being healed; ¹⁰ who also honored us with many honors; and, when we were setting sail, they placed on board the things suited to our needs.

²² And they come to Bethsaida. And they bring to Him a blind man, and beseech Him to touch him. ²³ And, taking hold of the blind man's hand, He brought him out of the village; and, spitting in his eyes, and putting His hands upon him, He asked him, "Do you see anything?" ²⁴ And, looking up, he said, "I behold men, because I see them as trees walking." ²⁵ Then again He put His hands on his eyes, and he looked steadily, and was restored, and was seeing all things distinctly. ²⁶ And He sent him away to his house, saying, "Do not even enter into the village."

¹⁰ And the apostles, having returned, related to Him what they did. And, taking them with Him, He retired privately to a city called Bethsaida. ¹¹ But the multitudes, perceiving it, followed Him; and, having welcomed them, He was speaking to them concerning the Kingdom of God, and those having need of cure He healed. ¹² And the day began to decline. And the twelve, coming near, said to Him, "Send away the multitudes; that, going into the villages and country round about, they may lodge and find food; because we are here in a desert place." ¹³ But He said to them, "Give ye them to eat." And they said, "We have no more than five loaves and two fishes; unless we, going, should buy food for all this people." (For they were about five thousand men). ¹⁴ And He said to His disciples, "Make them recline in companies of about fifty each." ¹⁵ And they did so, and made them all recline. ¹⁶ And, taking the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up into Heaven, He blessed them, and broke, and kept giving to the disciples to set before the multitude. ¹⁷ And they ate, and were all filled. And there was taken up that which remained to them of broken pieces, twelve baskets.

⁵ Jesus answered, "Verily, verily, I say to you, unless one be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. ⁶ That which has been born of the flesh is flesh: and that which has been born of the Spirit is spirit.

²⁵ And, disagreeing among themselves, they were departing, when Paul uttered one declaration, "Well did the Holy Spirit speak through Isaiah, the prophet, to your fathers, ²⁶ saying, 'Go your way to this people, and say, With hearing ye shall hear, but in no wise understand; and, looking, ye shall look, and in no wise see; ²⁷ for the heart of this people was made gross; and with their ears they heard heavily; and their eyes they closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should turn, and I should heal them.' ²⁸ Be it known, therefore, to you, that to the gentiles was this salvation of God sent: they also will hear."

²⁹ And, as Isaiah has said before: "Unless the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we would have become as Sodom, and been made like to Gomorrah." ³⁰ What, then, shall we say? that gentiles who were not following after righteous obtained righteousness, but a righteousness which is of faith; ³¹ but Israel, following after a law of righteousness, did not attain to such a law. ³² Wherefore? because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by works. They stumbled at the Stone of stumbling; ³³ as it has been written, "Behold, I lay in Zion a Stone of stumbling, and a Rock of offense; and he that believes on Him shall not be put to shame."

⁸ as it has been written, "God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, unto this day." ⁹ And David says, "Let their table be a snare, and a trap, and a stumbling-block, and a recompense to them: ¹⁰ let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back always." ¹¹ I Say, then, did they stumble, that they might fall? It could not be! But by their trespass salvation has come to the gentiles to provoke them to rivalry.

² in hypocrisy of men speaking lies, branded in their own conscience with a hot iron;

³ And I will give to My two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth."

⁴⁷ And that servant who knew his lord's will, and made not ready, nor did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes; ⁴⁸ but he who knew not, and did things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few. And to whomsoever much is given, of him will much be required; and to whomsoever they committed much, of him they will ask the more.

¹⁹ And this is the judgment, that the Light hath come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light; for their works were evil.

²² "Had I not come and spoken to them, they had not had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin. ²³ He who hates Me hates My Father also. ²⁴ Had I not done among them the works which no other did, they would not have had sin; but now have they both seen and hated both Me and My Father; ²⁵ but this they do, that the word may be fulfilled, which has been written in their law, 'They hated Me without a cause.'

¹ Wherefore, you are without excuse, O man, every one who judges; for wherein you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.

²⁷ And shall not the uncircumcision that is by nature, if it fulfills the law, judge you, with the letter and circumcision, to be a transgressor of the law?

¹³ And, having left Nazareth, having come, He dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the borders of Zebulon and Naphtali;

²⁸ And be not afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul; but rather fear Him Who is able to destroy both soul and body in Hell.

²³ "And you, Capernaum, shall you be exalted to Heaven? You shall go down to Hades; because, if the mighty works which were done in you, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.

¹ After He finished all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He entered into Capernaum. ² And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, being ill, was about to die.

²⁸ There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves thrust forth without.

²³ and in Hades, lifting up his eyes, being in torments, he sees Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

⁴ For, if God spared not angels that sinned, but, hurling them down to Hell, delivered them up to pits of darkness, kept for judgment;

⁵ And whosoever receives one such little child in My name, receives Me.

³⁷ "Whosoever receives one of such little children in My name, receives Me; and whosoever receives Me, receives not Me, but Him Who sent Me."

²² For neither doth the Father judge any one, but all judgment He hath given to the Son; ²³ that all may honor the Son even as they honor the Father. He that honors not the Son honors not the Father Who sent Him.

⁴⁴ And Jesus cried, and said, "He who believes on Me, believes not on Me, but on Him Who sent Me;

⁴⁸ He who rejects Me, and receives not My words, has one that judges him: the word that I spake, the same shall judge him in the last day.

⁴ While remaining, did it not remain your own? and, when sold, did it not continue in your own authority? Why did you conceive in your heart this thing? You did not lie to men, but to God."

⁸ Therefore, indeed, he that rejects, rejects not man, but God, Who giveth His Holy Spirit to you.

¹⁷ And these signs shall accompany those having believed: in My name will they cast out demons: they will speak with tongues;

¹ Now after these things the Lord appointed seventy others; and sent them away, two and two, before His face, into every city and place, whither He Himself was about to come.

²⁰ And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet speedily. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

¹⁰ Then Jesus saith to him, "Depart, Satan; for it has been written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only shall you serve.'"

³¹ Now is the judgment of this world: now will the Prince of this world be cast out;

¹¹ and respecting judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged.

¹⁴ Since, therefore, the children have partaken of blood and flesh, He Himself also in like manner took part of the same; that, through death, He might bring to nought him who had the power of death, that is, the Devil;

⁸ He that commits sin is of the Devil; because the Devil sins from the beginning. To this end was the Son of God manifested, that He might destroy the works of the Devil.

¹ And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fallen out of the heaven to the earth, and there was given to him the key of the pit of the abyss.

⁷ And there was war in the heaven; Michael and his angels went forth to war with the dragon. And the dragon made war, and his angels; ⁸ and they prevailed not, nor was their place found any more in the heaven. ⁹ And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole habitable earth; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him.

² And he seized the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,

¹⁸ they will take up serpents; and, if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."

¹⁷ And ye will be hated by all for My name's sake. ¹⁸ And a hair of your head shall in no wise perish.

⁵ He, therefore, having shaken off the beast into the fire, suffered no harm;

³¹ What, then, shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us? ³² He Who spared not His Own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how will He not also with Him freely give us all things? ³³ Who will bring an accusation against God's elect? It is God Who justifieth; ³⁴ who is he that condemns? It is Christ Who died, yea, rather, That was raised from the dead, Who is at the right hand of God, Who also is making intercession for us. ³⁵ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or perils or sword? ³⁶ As it has been written, "For Thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter." ³⁷ Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him Who loved us. ³⁸ For I am persuaded that, neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, ³⁹ nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

⁵ Let your disposition be without fondness for money; content with the present things; for He Himself hath said, "I will in nowise leave you, neither will I in any wise forsake you." ⁶ So that with good courage we say, "The Lord is my Helper, I will not be afraid; what shall man do to me?"

⁵ And, if anyone wishes to injure them, fire issues out of their mouth, and devours their enemies; and, if anyone wishes to injure them, he must in this manner be slain.

²² Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by Thy name? and by Thy name cast out demons, and by Thy name do many mighty works,'" ²³ And then will I confess to them, I never knew you; depart from Me, ye who work iniquity.

¹ And, having called to Him His twelve disciples, He gave them authority over unclean spirits, so as to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every sickness.

²⁴ The Son of Man, indeed, goeth, as it has been written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It were good for him, if that man had never been born!"

⁵ And, throwing the pieces of silver into the temple, he withdrew; and, going away, he hanged himself.

² And, if I have the gift of prophecy, and know all the mysteries and all knowledge; and, if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing, ³ And, if I bestow in morsels all my goods; and, if I give my body to he burned, but have not love, I am profited nothing.

³ Yea, I request you also, true yoke-fellow, help these women, who, indeed, labored with me in the Gospel, with Clement also, and my remaining fellow-laborers, whose names are in the book of life.

²³ to the general festal throng, and assembly of the first-born who are enrolled in Heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of righteous ones made perfect;

⁵ He that overcomes shall thus be clothed in white garments; and I will in nowise blot his name out of the book of life, and I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels.

⁸ And all who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the founding of a world.

¹² And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne; and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged out of the things that were written in the books, according to their works.

¹⁵ And, if anyone was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.

²⁷ And there shall in nowise enter into it any thing unclean, or he that works abomination and a lie; but only those written in the Lamb's book of life.

²⁵ At that season Jesus, answering, said, "I thank Thee, O Father, Lord of the heaven and of the earth, because Thou didst hide these things from the wise and discerning, and didst reveal them to babes. ²⁶ Yea, Father, because so it was well-pleasing before Thee! ²⁷ "All things were delivered to Me by My Father; and no one fully knows the Son except the Father; neither does any one fully know the Father except the Son, and he to whom the Son willeth to reveal Him.

¹¹ And He, answering, said to them, "Because to you it has been given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven, but to them it has not been given. ¹² For whosoever has, to him shall be given, and he shall be made to abound; but whosoever has not, even what he has shall be taken away from him. ¹³ On this account, I speak to them in parables; because, seeing, they see not; and, hearing, they hear not, nor understand. ¹⁴ And to them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, which says, 'With hearing ye will hear, and will not understand; and, seeing, ye will see, and will not perceive; ¹⁵ for the heart of this people was made gross, and with their ears they heard heavily, and their eyes they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn, and I should heal them.' ¹⁶ But happy are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear.

¹⁷ And Jesus, answering, said to him, "Happy are you, Simon Bar-Jonah; because flesh and blood did not reveal it to you, but My Father Who is in Heaven.

¹⁶ and said to Him, "Dost Thou hear what these are saying?" And Jesus saith to them, "Yes; did ye never read, 'Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings Thou didst perfect praise!'"

¹⁵ Verily I say to you, whosoever does not receive the Kingdom of God as a little child, will in no wise enter therein."

⁵ And, finding it, he places it upon his shoulders, rejoicing:

⁹ And, having found it, she calls together her female friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me; because I found the piece which I lost!'

⁴¹ So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up His eyes, and said, "Father, I thank Thee, because Thou didst hear Me.

²⁴ Father, as to what Thou hast given Me, I desire that they also maybe with Me, where I am; that they may behold My glory, which Thou hast given Me; because Thou didst love Me before the founding of a world. ²⁵ O righteous Father! and the world knew Thee not; but I knew Thee, and these knew that Thou didst send Me; ²⁶ and I made known to them Thy name, and will make it known; that the love with which Thou lovedst Me may be in them, and I in them."

⁹ God is faithful, through Whom ye were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. ¹⁰ Now I beseech you, brethren, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfected in the same mind, and in the same judgment. ¹¹ For it was signified to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. ¹² Now I mean this: that each one of you is saying, "I am of Paul;" and "I of Apollos;" and "I of Cephas:" and "I of Christ!" ¹³ Hath Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were ye immersed into the name of Paul? ¹⁴ I am thankful that I immersed no one of you, except Crispus and Gaius; ¹⁵ lest some one should say that ye were immersed into my name. ¹⁶ And I immersed also the household of Stephanas; besides, I know not whether I immersed any other. ¹⁷ For Christ sent me not to immerse, but to proclaim the Gospel; not in wisdom of speech, lest the cross of Christ should be made void. ¹⁸ For the word of the cross is to those who are perishing, foolishness; but to those who are being saved, it is the power of God. ¹⁹ For it has been written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning will I set aside." ²⁰ Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? ²¹ For, since in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom knew not God, God was pleased through the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe; ²² seeing that both Jews ask for signs, and Greeks seek after wisdom; ²³ but we preach Christ crucified; to the Jews, a stumbling-block, and to the gentiles foolishness; ²⁴ but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. ²⁵ Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. ²⁶ For ye behold your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are chosen; ²⁷ but God chose the foolish things of the world, that He might put to shame the wise; and God chose the weak things of the world, that He might put to shame the things that are strong; ²⁸ and the base things of the world, and things despised, did God choose, and the things that are not, that He might bring to nought the things that are; ²⁹ that no flesh should glory before God.

⁶ But we speak wisdom among the perfect; yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nought; ⁷ but we speak God's wisdom in a mystery—the hidden wisdom—which God predestined before the ages for our glory; ⁸ which no one of the rulers of this age has known; for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory;

¹⁸ Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you thinks that he is wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may become wise. ¹⁹ For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; for it has been written, "He Who taketh the wise in their craftiness." ²⁰ And again, "The Lord knoweth the reasonings of the wise, that they are vain."

³ And, even if our Gospel has been veiled, it has been veiled in those who perish;

⁵ having predestinated us to the adoption of sons through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,

¹¹ in Whom we also were made a heritage, having been predestinated according to the purpose of Him Who worketh all things after the counsel of His own will;

² that their hearts may he comforted, they being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of the understanding, unto the full knowledge of the mystery of God, even Christ, ³ in Whom are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge hidden away.

¹ Having, therefore, put away all wickedness, and all guile, and hypocrisy, and envies, and all evil speakings, ² as new-born babes, long ye for the spiritual, unadulterated milk, that thereby ye may grow unto salvation,

²⁷ "All things were delivered to Me by My Father; and no one fully knows the Son except the Father; neither does any one fully know the Father except the Son, and he to whom the Son willeth to reveal Him.

¹⁸ And Jesus, coming near, spake to them, saying, "All authority was given to Me in Heaven and on earth:

¹⁸ No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, Who is in the bosom of the Father, He declared Him.

³⁵ The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into His hand.

²² For neither doth the Father judge any one, but all judgment He hath given to the Son; ²³ that all may honor the Son even as they honor the Father. He that honors not the Son honors not the Father Who sent Him. ²⁴ "Verily, verily, I say to you, He that hears My word, and believes Him Who sent Me, has eternal life, and comes not into judgment, but has passed out of death into life. ²⁵ Verily, verily, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those having heard shall live. ²⁶ For, as the Father hath life in Himself, so also He gave to the Son to have life in Himself; ²⁷ and He gave Him authority to execute judgment, because He is the Son of Man.

⁴⁴ No one can come to Me, unless the Father Who sent Me draw him; and I will raise him up at the last day. ⁴⁵ It has been written in the prophets, 'And they shall all be taught of God.' Every one who heard from the Father, and learned, comes to Me. ⁴⁶ Not that any one has seen the Father, save Him Who is from God, He hath seen the Father.

¹⁵ even as the Father knoweth Me, and I know the Father; and I lay down My soul for the sheep.

³ knowing that the Father gave all things into His hands, and that He came forth from God, and was going to God,

² even as Thou gavest Him authority over all flesh, that to all Whom Thou hast given Him He should give eternal life.

⁵ And, now, Father, glorify Thou Me with Thine Own Self, with the glory which I had with Thee before the world was.

¹⁰ And all Mine are Thine, and Thine are Mine; and I am glorified in them.

²⁶ and I made known to them Thy name, and will make it known; that the love with which Thou lovedst Me may be in them, and I in them."

²⁴ Then comes the end, when He delivereth up the Kingdom to God, even His Father; when He shall abolish all rule and all authority and power;

⁶ because it is the God Who said, "Light shall shine out of darkness," Who shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

²¹ far above all rule, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that to come;

⁹ Wherefore also God highly exalted Him, and bestowed upon Him the name which is above every name; ¹⁰ that, in the name of Jesus, every knee should bow, of beings in Heaven, and on earth, and under the earth, ¹¹ and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.

⁸ Thou didst put all things in subjection under his feet." For in subjecting all things to him, He left nothing unsubjected to him. But now we do not yet see all things subjected to him.

²⁰ And we know that the Son of God hath come, and hath given us understanding, that we may know the True One: and we are in the True One—in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the True God, and eternal life.

⁹ Every one who leads forward, and abides not in the teaching of Christ, has not God. He that abides in the teaching, the same has both the Father and the Son.

¹⁶ But happy are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear. ¹⁷ For verily I say to you, that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what ye are seeing, and did not see them; and to hear what ye are hearing, and did not hear them.

⁵⁶ Abraham, your father, rejoiced to see My day; and he saw it, and was glad."

¹³ These all died according to faith, not having obtained the promises, but having seen them from afar, and having greeted them, and having confessed that they were strangers and sojourners on the earth.

³⁹ And these all, having received a good report through faith, obtained not the promise;

¹⁰ concerning which salvation the prophets earnestly sought and diligently searched, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you; ¹¹ searching as to what time or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ Who was in them was pointing to, when testifying beforehand the sufferings destined for Christ, and the subsequent glories; ¹² to whom it was revealed that, not to themselves, but to you they were ministering them; which things now were reported to you through those who proclaimed the Gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent forth from Heaven; into which things angels desire to look carefully.

¹⁶ And, behold, one, having come near, said to Him, "Teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?" ¹⁷ And He said to him, "Why do you question Me concerning the good? One is the Good. But, if you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments." ¹⁸ He says to Him, "Which?" And Jesus said, "You shall not kill; you shall not commit adultery; you shall not steal; you shall not bear false witness; ¹⁹ honor your father and your mother; and, you shall love your neighbor as yourself."

³⁴ But the Pharisees, hearing that He silenced the Sadducees, were collected together; ³⁵ and one of them, a lawyer, asked a question, tempting Him: ³⁶ "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?" ³⁷ And He said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. ³⁸ This is the great and first commandment. ³⁹ A second like it is this: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

³⁰ But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God as to themselves, not having been immersed by him.

⁴⁵ And one of the lawyers, answering, says to Him, "Teacher, in saying these things, Thou insultest us also!" ⁴⁶ And He said, "Woe to you lawyers, also! because ye burden men with burdens hard to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers!

¹⁸ And a certain ruler asked Him, saying, "Good Teacher, by doing what shall I inherit eternal life?"

³⁰ and, having brought them out, he said, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" ³¹ And they said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus, and you shall be saved, and your house."

¹⁸ For, if the inheritance is of the law, it is no longer of promise; but God has freely given it to Abraham through promise. ¹⁹ Now we know that whatsoever the law says, it speaks to those under the law; that every mouth may be stopped, and that the whole world may be under the sentence of God;

¹⁴ For, if those who are of the law are heirs, faith has been made void, and the promise has been brought to nought; ¹⁵ for the law works wrath; but where there is no law, there is no transgression. ¹⁶ For this cause it is of faith, that it may be according to grace; to the end that the promise may be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all

⁵ For Moses writes that the man who did the righteousness of the law shall live thereby;

¹² Now the law is not of faith; but "He who did them shall live in them." ¹³ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us; because it has been written, "Cursed is every one who is hung upon a tree";

²¹ Is the law, then, against the promises of God? It could not be! For, if a law had been given, which was able to make alive, truly righteousness would have been by law; ²² but the Scripture shuts up all things under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

¹⁹ honor your father and your mother; and, you shall love your neighbor as yourself."

³⁷ And He said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. ³⁸ This is the great and first commandment. ³⁹ A second like it is this: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. ⁴⁰ On these two commandments hangs the whole law, and the prophets."

³⁰ and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your mind and with all your strength.' ³¹ A second is this, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these."

³³ and to love Him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as himself, is much more than all the whole burnt-offerings and sacrifices." ³⁴ And Jesus, seeing that he answered discreetly, said to him, "You are not far from the Kingdom of God." And no one any more dared to question Him.

⁹ For this, "You shall not commit adultery," "You shall not kill," "You shall not steal," "You shall not covet;" and, if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this word, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

¹³ For ye were called to freedom, brethren; only use not your freedom for an occasion to the flesh, but through love serve one another;

¹⁰ Because this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord: Putting My laws into their mind, I will also write them upon their hearts, and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to Me a people;

⁸ If, however, ye fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself," ye do well;

¹⁸ Little children, let us not love in word, neither with the tongue, but in deed and in truth.

¹⁷ And He said to him, "Why do you question Me concerning the good? One is the Good. But, if you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments."

³⁴ And Jesus, seeing that he answered discreetly, said to him, "You are not far from the Kingdom of God." And no one any more dared to question Him.

⁴³ Simon, answering, said, "He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the more." And He said to him, "Rightly did you judge."

⁴ for Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one who believes.

¹² Now the law is not of faith; but "He who did them shall live in them."

⁴³ "Ye heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor, and hate your enemy;' ⁴⁴ but I say to you, Love your enemies; and pray for those who persecute you;

³⁶ Which, therefore, of these three seems to you to have become neighbor of him who fell among the robbers?"

¹⁵ And He said to them, "Ye are those who justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts; because that which is exalted among men is an abomination before God.

⁹ And He spake also this parable to some who had trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised the rest: ¹⁰ Two men went up into the temple to pray; one a Pharisee, and the other a tax-collector. ¹¹ The Pharisee, having taken his stand, was praying these things with himself: 'God, I thank Thee that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax-collector!

² For, if Abraham was justified by works, he has ground of boasting, but not toward God.

³ for, being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God;

¹¹ Now that by law no one is justified with God, is evident; because "The righteous one shall live by faith."

²⁴ Ye see that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.

³¹ And, taking the twelve aside, He said to them, "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem; and all the things, written through the prophets respecting the Son of Man, will be accomplished;

²⁸ And, having said these things, He was journeying on before, going up to Jerusalem.

¹³ For the judgment is without mercy to him who showed no mercy: mercy exults over judgment. ¹⁴ What profit is it, my brethren, if anyone says he has faith, but has not works; can such faith save him? ¹⁵ If a brother or a sister be naked, and in want of daily food, ¹⁶ and one of you say to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled," but ye give them not the things needful for the body, what does it profit?

¹⁶ In this we have known the love, that He laid down His soul in our behalf; and we ought to lay down our souls in behalf of the brethren. ¹⁷ But whosoever possesses the goods of the world, and beholds his brother having need, and shuts up his compassion from him, how does the love of God abide in him? ¹⁸ Little children, let us not love in word, neither with the tongue, but in deed and in truth.

¹⁷ But they all, having laid hold upon Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, were beating him before the judgment-seat. And Gallio was caring for none of these things.

² for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,

⁵ These twelve Jesus sent forth, having charged them, saying, "Go not into any way of the gentiles, and enter not into a city of the Samaritans;

³³ Should you not also have had mercy on your fellow-servant, as I had mercy on you?'

⁵² and He sent forth messengers before His face; and, journeying onward, they entered into a village of Samaritans, so as to prepare for Him. ⁵³ And they did not receive Him, because His face was as if He were going to Jerusalem.

¹⁶ and fell on his face at His feet, giving thanks to Him; and he was a Samaritan. ¹⁷ And Jesus, answering, said, "Were not the ten cleansed? Where are the nine? ¹⁸ Were none found, returning to give glory to God, except this stranger?"

⁹ The Samaritan woman, therefore, says to Him, "How is it that Thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans).

⁴⁸ The Jews answered and said to Him, "Say we not well that Thou art a Samaritan, and hast a demon?"

⁴³ "Ye heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor, and hate your enemy;' ⁴⁴ but I say to you, Love your enemies; and pray for those who persecute you; ⁴⁵ that ye may be sons of your Father Who is in Heaven; because He causeth His sun to rise on evil men and on good, and sendeth rain on the righteous and on the unrighteous.

⁸ She did what she could: she anointed My body beforehand for the burial.

⁷ and she brought forth her Son, the Firstborn, and wrapped Him in swaddling clothes, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

²⁰ But, if your enemy hungers, feed him; if he thirsts, give him drink; for, in doing this, you will heap coals of fire upon his head.

¹⁵ See that no one render to any one evil for evil; but always pursue that which is good, toward one another, and toward all.

² and, having agreed with the laborers for a denary a day, he sent them into his vineyard.

¹³ but, when you make a feast, call the poor, maimed, lame, blind;

²³ Gaius my host, and of the whole assembly, salutes you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, salutes you, and Quartus the brother.

²⁵ He says, "Yes." And Jesus anticipated him as he came into the house, saying, "What do you think, Simon? the kings of the earth, from whom do they receive tax or tribute? from their sons, or from the aliens?"

²⁸ "But what think ye? A man had two children; and to the first, he said, 'Child, go, work today in the vineyard.' ²⁹ And he, answering, said, 'I go, sir,' and he went not. ³⁰ And, coming to the second, he spake in like manner; and he, answering, said, 'I am not willing;' but later, repenting, he went. ³¹ Which of the two did the will of the father?" They say, "The last." Jesus saith to them, "Verily I say to you that the tax-collectors and the harlots are going into the Kingdom of God before you.

⁴² saying, "What think ye concerning the Christ? Whose Son is He?" They say to Him, "David's."

⁴² And, they having nothing to pay, he forgave them both. Which of them, therefore, will love him the more?"

²⁸ even as the Son of Man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give His soul a ransom for many."

²³ "Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin; and have omitted the weightier things of the law—the judgment, and the mercy, and the faith; but these it was proper to have done, and those not to have omitted.

³² "And, if ye love those who love you, what charm have you? for even the sinners love those who love them. ³³ "And, if ye do good to those who do good to you, what charm have you? even the sinners do the same. ³⁴ "And, if ye lend to those from whom ye hope to receive, what charm have you? even the sinners lend to sinners, that they may receive back as much. ³⁵ "But love your enemies; and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and ye will be sons of the Most High; because He is kind to the unthankful and evil. ³⁶ "Be ye merciful, even as your Father is merciful.

¹⁵ for I gave you an example, that, as I did to you, ye also should do. ¹⁶ Verily, verily, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his lord, nor one who is sent greater than he who sent him. ¹⁷ If ye know these things, happy are ye, if ye do them.

⁹ For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though He was rich, for your sakes He became poor, that ye through His poverty might become rich.

¹⁸ may be strong to apprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth, and length, and height, and depth, ¹⁹ and to know the knowledge-surpassing love of Christ, that ye may be filled unto all the fulness of God.

² and walk in love, as Christ also loved you, and delivered Himself up for you, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of sweet smell.

⁹ But we behold Him Who was made a little lower than angels, Jesus, on account of the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor, that, by the grace of God, He might taste death for every one. ¹⁰ For it was becoming Him, on Whose account are all things, and through Whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to perfect, through suffering, the Captain of their salvation. ¹¹ For both He Who sanctifieth and those who are sanctified are all of One; for which cause He is not ashamed to call them brethren, ¹² saying, "I will declare Thy name to my brethren; in the midst of an assembly will I sing praise to Thee." ¹³ And again, "I will put my trust in Him." And again, "Behold, I and the children whom God gave me." ¹⁴ Since, therefore, the children have partaken of blood and flesh, He Himself also in like manner took part of the same; that, through death, He might bring to nought him who had the power of death, that is, the Devil; ¹⁵ and might release all those who, through fear of death, were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

²¹ For to this were ye called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that ye should follow His steps;

²³ And this is the commandment, that we should believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as He gave us commandment. ²⁴ And he that keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him; and in this we know that He abideth in us, by the Spirit Whom He gave to us.

¹⁰ Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son, to be a propitiation for our sins. ¹¹ Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

⁵ and from Jesus Christ, the faithful Witness, the First-born of the dead, and the Ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him Who loveth, and loosed us from our sins in His own blood,

² and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary who is called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out, ³ and Joanna wife of Chuzas Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who were ministering to them of their substance.

¹ Now a certain one was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Mary and her sister Martha. ² And it was the Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick. ³ The sisters, therefore, sent to Him, saying, "Lord, behold, he whom Thou lovest is sick." ⁴ And Jesus, hearing it, said, "This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it. ⁵ Now Jesus was loving Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

¹⁹ And many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother. ²⁰ Martha, therefore, when she heard that Jesus was coming, met Him; but Mary was sitting in the house.

¹ Jesus, therefore, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus raised from the dead. ² They, therefore, made Him a supper there; and Martha was serving; but Lazarus was one of those reclining at table with Him. ³ Mary, therefore, having taken a pound of ointment of pure spikenard, very costly, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.

¹⁰ If anyone comes to you, and brings not this teaching, receive him not into your house, and say not to him, "Greeting,"

⁴⁶ And it came to pass that, after three days, they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both hearing them, and asking them questions.

³⁵ And they went out to see what had taken place; and they came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons went out, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and having his right mind; and they were afraid.

¹ Now a certain one was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Mary and her sister Martha.

³ Mary, therefore, having taken a pound of ointment of pure spikenard, very costly, anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.

³ and he says, "I am a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, having been trained according to the exactness of the ancestral law, being zealous for God, even as ye all are to-day;

³² But I wish you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried man is anxious for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord; ³³ but he that is married is anxious for the things of the world, how he may please his wife, ³⁴ and has become divided. And the unmarried woman and the virgin is anxious for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and spirit; but she that is married is anxious for the things of the world, that she may please her husband. ³⁵ And this I say for your own profit; not that I may cast restraint upon you, but for that which is seemly, and compatible with constant devotion to the Lord without distraction. ³⁶ But, if any one thinks that he behaves himself unseemly toward his virgin daughter, if she be beyond the prime of life, and thus it ought to be brought about, let him do what he wishes, he sins not; let them marry. ³⁷ But he who has been standing steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but has authority respecting his own will, and has determined this in his own heart, that he will keep his own virgin daughter, will do well. ³⁸ So that both he that gives his own virgin daughter in marriage does well; and he that gives her not in marriage will do better. ³⁹ A wife is bound as long as her husband lives; but, if her husband fall asleep, she is at liberty to he married to whom she will: only in the Lord. ⁴⁰ But she is happier, if she abides as she is, according to my judgment; and I think that I also have the Spirit of God.

¹⁵ And, evening coming on, the disciples came to Him, saying, "The place is desert, and the time already passed by: dismiss the multitudes, that, having gone into the villages, they may buy food for themselves."

²² And Peter, taking Him aside, began to rebuke Him, saying, "God be merciful to Thee! this shall not be to Thee."

²¹ And, hearing of it, His kinsmen went out to lay hold on Him; for they said, "He became insane!"

⁵⁵ But, turning, He rebuked them.

²⁹ And seek ye not what ye shall eat, and what ye shall drink; nor be troubled with anxiety;

²⁷ Work not for the food that perishes, but for the food that abides unto eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you; for Him God the Father sealed."

²⁵ Therefore, I say to you, be not anxious for your life, what ye may eat, or what ye may drink; nor for your body, what ye may put on. Is not the life more than the food, and the body than the raiment? ²⁶ Behold the fowls of the heaven, that they sow not, nor reap, nor gather into barns; and your Heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not ye much more valuable than they? ²⁷ And who of you, by being anxious, can add to his stature one cubit? ²⁸ And why are ye anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin; ²⁹ but I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed as one of these. ³⁰ And, if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, that to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith! ³¹ Be not, therefore, anxious, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink!' or 'What shall we put on?' ³² For after all these things the nations are seeking; for your Heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. ³³ But seek ye first His Kingdom and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you. ³⁴ Be not, therefore, anxious for the morrow; for the morrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its evil.

¹⁹ and the anxieties of the age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the desires about other things entering in, choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

¹⁴ "And that which fell among the thorns, these are those who heard; and, going forth, they are choked with anxieties, and riches, and pleasures of life, and bear no fruit to perfection.

²² And He said to His disciples, "Therefore, I say to you, be not anxious for your soul, what ye shall eat; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on;

³⁴ "But take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be weighed down with gluttony and drunkenness, and anxieties pertaining to life, and that day come upon you suddenly as a snare;

³² But I wish you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried man is anxious for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord; ³³ but he that is married is anxious for the things of the world, how he may please his wife, ³⁴ and has become divided. And the unmarried woman and the virgin is anxious for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and spirit; but she that is married is anxious for the things of the world, that she may please her husband. ³⁵ And this I say for your own profit; not that I may cast restraint upon you, but for that which is seemly, and compatible with constant devotion to the Lord without distraction.

⁶ Be anxious for nothing; but, in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God:

³⁶ For what does it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and suffer damage as to his soul?

¹⁸ Take heed, therefore, how ye hear; for whosoever has, to him shall be given; and whosoever has not, even what he seems to have shall be taken from him."

²⁰ But God said to him, 'Senseless one! this night they require your soul of you; and the things you prepared, whose shall they be?'

³³ Sell what ye have, and give alms; make for yourselves purses that grow not old, a treasure unfailing in Heaven, where no thief approaches, nor moth corrupts;

² And, calling him, he said to him, 'What is this I hear of you? Render the account of your stewardship; for you can be no longer steward.'

²⁵ But Abraham said, 'Child, remember that, in your lifetime, you received in full your good things, and Lazarus, likewise, evil things; but now here he is comforted, and you are in anguish.

²² And Jesus, hearing it said to him, "Yet one thing is lacking to you; sell all that you have, and distribute to the poor, and you shall have treasure in Heaven, and come, follow Me."

¹⁴ but whosoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up into eternal life."

²⁴ "Verily, verily, I say to you, He that hears My word, and believes Him Who sent Me, has eternal life, and comes not into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

²⁷ My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; ²⁸ and I give to them eternal life; and they shall never perish, nor shall any one snatch them out of My hand.

³ And this is the eternal life, that they know Thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ Whom Thou didst send.

³ And, if I bestow in morsels all my goods; and, if I give my body to he burned, but have not love, I am profited nothing.

⁶ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision avails anything, nor uncircumcision, but faith working through love.

¹⁰ and ye have been made complete in Him, Who is the Head of all principality and power; ¹¹ in Whom ye were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hand, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ; ¹² having been buried with Him in your immersion, in which ye were also raised with Him through faith in the working of God, Who raised Him from the dead; ¹³ and you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, did He make alive with Him: having freely forgiven us all our trespasses; ¹⁴ having blotted out the hand-writing in decrees against us, which was contrary to us, and He has taken it out of the midst, nailing it to the cross; ¹⁵ having despoiled the principalities and the powers, He made an example of them, celebrating a triumph over them in it. ¹⁶ Let no one, therefore, judge you in food, or in drink, or in respect of a feast, or a new moon, or sabbaths, ¹⁷ which are a shadow of things to come, but the body is Christ's. ¹⁸ Let no one rob you of your prize, wishing to do it in humility and in a worshipping of angels, speculating about the things which he has seen, being vainly puffed up by the mind of his flesh, ¹⁹ and not holding fast the Head from Whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and bands, increases with the increase of God.

³ for ye died, and your life has been hid with Christ in God. ⁴ When Christ, our Life, shall be manifested, then shall ye also with Him be manifested in glory.

⁴ to an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and unfading; kept in Heaven for you, ⁵ who are being guarded by God's power, through faith unto a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time;

¹¹ And this is the testimony, that God gave to us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. ¹² He that has the Son has the life; he that has not the Son of God has not the life.
