them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
41:010:014 But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto
them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid
them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
41:010:015 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom
of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
41:010:016 And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and
blessed them.
41:010:017 And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one
running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what
shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?
41:010:018 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is
none good but one, that is, God.
41:010:019 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not
kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not,
Honour thy father and mother.
41:010:020 And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I
observed from my youth.
41:010:021 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One
thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and
give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and
come, take up the cross, and follow me.
41:010:022 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he
had great possessions.
41:010:023 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples,
How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom
of God!
41:010:024 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus
answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it
for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of
God!
41:010:025 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle,
than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
41:010:026 And they were astonished out of measure, saying among
themselves, Who then can be saved?
41:010:027 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible,
but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
41:010:028 Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and
have followed thee.
41:010:029 And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is
no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or
father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my
sake, and the gospel's,
41:010:030 But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses,
and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and
lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal
life.
41:010:031 But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.
41:010:032 And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went
before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they
were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell
them what things should happen unto him,
41:010:033 Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man
shall be delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the
scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall
deliver him to the Gentiles:
41:010:034 And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit
upon him, and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise
again.
41:010:035 And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him,
saying, Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us
whatsoever we shall desire.
41:010:036 And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?
41:010:037 They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy
right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.
41:010:038 But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye
drink of the cup that I drink of? and be baptized with the
baptism that I am baptized with?
41:010:039 And they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye
shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the
baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized:
41:010:040 But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to
give; but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.
41:010:041 And when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased
with James and John.
41:010:042 But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know
that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles
exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise
authority upon them.
41:010:043 But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great
among you, shall be your minister:
41:010:044 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of
all.
41:010:045 For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to
minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
41:010:046 And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with
his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus,
the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.
41:010:047 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to
cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.
41:010:048 And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he
cried the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on
me.
41:010:049 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And
they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort,
rise; he calleth thee.
41:010:050 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
41:010:051 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I
should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I
might receive my sight.
41:010:052 And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee
whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed
Jesus in the way.
41:011:001 And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and
Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his
disciples,
41:011:002 And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against
you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a
colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him.
41:011:003 And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the
Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him
hither.
41:011:004 And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door
without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him.
41:011:005 And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do
ye, loosing the colt?
41:011:006 And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they
let them go.
41:011:007 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on
him; and he sat upon him.
41:011:008 And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down
branches off the trees, and strawed them in the way.
41:011:009 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried,
saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the
Lord:
41:011:010 Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh in the
name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
41:011:011 And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and
when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the
eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
41:011:012 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was
hungry:
41:011:013 And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if
haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it,
he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.
41:011:014 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee
hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
41:011:015 And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple,
and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple,
and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats
of them that sold doves;
41:011:016 And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel
through the temple.
41:011:017 And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house
shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye
have made it a den of thieves.
41:011:018 And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how
they might destroy him: for they feared him, because all the
people was astonished at his doctrine.
41:011:019 And when even was come, he went out of the city.
41:011:020 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree
dried up from the roots.
41:011:021 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master,
behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
41:011:022 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
41:011:023 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this
mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and
shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those
things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have
whatsoever he saith.
41:011:024 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when
ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
41:011:025 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against
any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you
your trespasses.
41:011:026 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in
heaven forgive your trespasses.
41:011:027 And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the
temple, there come to him the chief priests, and the scribes,
and the elders,
41:011:028 And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these things?
and who gave thee this authority to do these things?
41:011:029 And Jesus answered and said unto them, I will also ask of you
one question, and answer me, and I will tell you by what
authority I do these things.
41:011:030 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men? answer me.
41:011:031 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say,
From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?
41:011:032 But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for all
men counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.
41:011:033 And they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And
Jesus answering saith unto them, Neither do I tell you by what
authority I do these things.
41:012:001 And he began to speak unto them by parables. A certain man
planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about it, and digged a
place for the winefat, and built a tower, and let it out to
husbandmen, and went into a far country.
41:012:002 And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he
might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the
vineyard.
41:012:003 And they caught him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.
41:012:004 And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they
cast stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away
shamefully handled.
41:012:005 And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many
others; beating some, and killing some.
41:012:006 Having yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him
also last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.
41:012:007 But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir;
come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be our's.
41:012:008 And they took him, and killed him, and cast him out of the
vineyard.
41:012:009 What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come
and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto
others.
41:012:010 And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the
builders rejected is become the head of the corner:
41:012:011 This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
41:012:012 And they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people: for
they knew that he had spoken the parable against them: and
they left him, and went their way.
41:012:013 And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the
Herodians, to catch him in his words.
41:012:014 And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know
that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest
not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth:
Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?
41:012:015 Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their
hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny,
that I may see it.
41:012:016 And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this
image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.
41:012:017 And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the
things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are
God's. And they marvelled at him.
41:012:018 Then come unto him the Sadducees, which say there is no
resurrection; and they asked him, saying,
41:012:019 Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man's brother die, and leave
his wife behind him, and leave no children, that his brother
should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
41:012:020 Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and
dying left no seed.
41:012:021 And the second took her, and died, neither left he any seed:
and the third likewise.
41:012:022 And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the woman
died also.
41:012:023 In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose
wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.
41:012:024 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err,
because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?
41:012:025 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry,
nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in
heaven.
41:012:026 And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in
the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying,
I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of
Jacob?
41:012:027 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye
therefore do greatly err.
41:012:028 And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning
together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked
him, Which is the first commandment of all?
41:012:029 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is,
Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
41:012:030 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and
with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy
strength: this is the first commandment.
41:012:031 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy
neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater
than these.
41:012:032 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the
truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:
41:012:033 And to love him with all the heart, and with all the
understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the
strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than
all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
41:012:034 And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto
him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man
after that durst ask him any question.
41:012:035 And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple,
How say the scribes that Christ is the son of David?
41:012:036 For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said to my
Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy
footstool.
41:012:037 David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he
then his son? And the common people heard him gladly.
41:012:038 And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes,
which love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the
marketplaces,
41:012:039 And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms
at feasts:
41:012:040 Which devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long
prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.
41:012:041 And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the
people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich
cast in much.
41:012:042 And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two
mites, which make a farthing.
41:012:043 And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them,
Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in,
than all they which have cast into the treasury:
41:012:044 For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her
want did cast in all that she had, even all her living.
41:013:001 And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith
unto him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings
are here!
41:013:002 And Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great
buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another,
that shall not be thrown down.
41:013:003 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the
temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him
privately,
41:013:004 Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the
sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?
41:013:005 And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man
deceive you:
41:013:006 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall
deceive many.
41:013:007 And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not
troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not
be yet.
41:013:008 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and
there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings
of sorrows.
41:013:009 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to
councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye
shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a
testimony against them.
41:013:010 And the gospel must first be published among all nations.
41:013:011 But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no
thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye
premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour,
that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy
Ghost.
41:013:012 Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the
father the son; and children shall rise up against their
parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.
41:013:013 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he
that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
41:013:014 But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of
by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him
that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee
to the mountains:
41:013:015 And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the
house, neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his
house:
41:013:016 And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to
take up his garment.
41:013:017 But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give
suck in those days!
41:013:018 And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter.
41:013:019 For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from
the beginning of the creation which God created unto this
time, neither shall be.
41:013:020 And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh
should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath
chosen, he hath shortened the days.
41:013:021 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or,
lo, he is there; believe him not:
41:013:022 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall
shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even
the elect.
41:013:023 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
41:013:024 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be
darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,
41:013:025 And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in
heaven shall be shaken.
41:013:026 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds
with great power and glory.
41:013:027 And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together
his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the
earth to the uttermost part of heaven.
41:013:028 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet
tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near:
41:013:029 So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to
pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors.
41:013:030 Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass,
till all these things be done.
41:013:031 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass
away.
41:013:032 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the
angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
41:013:033 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time
is.
41:013:034 For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left
his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every
man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.
41:013:035 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the
house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing,
or in the morning:
41:013:036 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.
41:013:037 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.
41:014:001 After two days was the feast of the passover, and of
unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought
how they might take him by craft, and put him to death.
41:014:002 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar
of the people.
41:014:003 And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he
sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of
ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box,
and poured it on his head.
41:014:004 And there were some that had indignation within themselves,
and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?
41:014:005 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence,
and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against
her.
41:014:006 And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath
wrought a good work on me.
41:014:007 For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will
ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.
41:014:008 She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint
my body to the burying.
41:014:009 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be
preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath
done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
41:014:010 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief
priests, to betray him unto them.
41:014:011 And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give
him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.
41:014:012 And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the
passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we
go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover?
41:014:013 And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto
them, Go ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man
bearing a pitcher of water: follow him.
41:014:014 And wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the
house, The Master saith, Where is the guestchamber, where I
shall eat the passover with my disciples?
41:014:015 And he will shew you a large upper room furnished and
prepared: there make ready for us.
41:014:016 And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and
found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the
passover.
41:014:017 And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.
41:014:018 And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto
you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me.
41:014:019 And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by
one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I?
41:014:020 And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve,
that dippeth with me in the dish.
41:014:021 The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe
to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it
for that man if he had never been born.
41:014:022 And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake
it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.
41:014:023 And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it
to them: and they all drank of it.
41:014:024 And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament,
which is shed for many.
41:014:025 Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of
the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of
God.
41:014:026 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount
of Olives.
41:014:027 And Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended because of
me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd,
and the sheep shall be scattered.
41:014:028 But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.
41:014:029 But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet
will not I.
