10:1 And he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judaea
by the farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him
again;
and, as he was wont, he taught them again.
10:2 And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for
a man to put away his wife? tempting him.
10:3 And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?
10:4 And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement,
and to put her away.
10:5 And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your
heart he wrote you this precept.
10:6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and
female.
10:7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave
to his wife;
10:8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more
twain, but one flesh.
10:9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
10:10 And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter.
10:11 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and
marry another, committeth adultery against her.
10:12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to
another, she committeth adultery.
10:13 And they brought young children to him, that he should touch
them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
10:14 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.
10:15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom
of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
10:16 And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them,
and
blessed them.
10:17 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?
10:18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there
is none good but one, that is, God.
10:19 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.
10:20 And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I
observed
from my youth.
10:21 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.
10:22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for
he had great possessions.
10:23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How
hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
10:24 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!
10:25 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.
10:26 And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves,
Who then can be saved?
10:27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is
impossible,
but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
10:28 Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have
followed thee.
10:29 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,
10:30 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.
10:31 But many that are first shall be last; and the last
first.
10:32 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,
10:33 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:
10:34 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.
10:35 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.
10:36 And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?
10:37 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.
10:38 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?
10:39 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:
10:40 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.
10:41 And when the ten heard it, they began to be much
displeased
with James and John.
10:42 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.
10:43 But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be
great among you, shall be your minister:
10:44 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of
all.
10:45 For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to
minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
10:46 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.
10:47 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.
10:48 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.
10:49 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.
10:50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
10:51 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.
10:52 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.

11:1 And when they came nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany,
at the mount of Olives, he sendeth forth two of his disciples,
11:2 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.
11:3 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.
11:4 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.
11:5 And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye,
loosing the colt?
11:6 And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and
they let them go.
11:7 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on
him; and he sat upon him.
11:8 And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut
down branches off the trees, and strowed them in the way.
11:9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying,
Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord:
11:10 Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that cometh
in
the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
11:11 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.
11:12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was
hungry:
11:13 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.
11:14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee
hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
11:15 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;
11:16 And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel
through
the temple.
11:17 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.
11:18 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.
11:19 And when even was come, he went out of the city.
11:20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree
dried up from the roots.
11:21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold,
the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
11:22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
11:23 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.
11:24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when
ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
11:25 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.
11:26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in
heaven forgive your trespasses.
11:27 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,
11:28 And say unto him, By what authority doest thou these
things?
and who gave thee this authority to do these things?
11:29 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.
11:30 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?
answer
me.
11:31 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From
heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him?
11:32 But if we shall say, Of men; they feared the people: for
all men counted John, that he was a prophet indeed.
11:33 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.

12:1 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.
12:2 And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he
might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.
12:3 And they caught him, and beat him, and sent him
away empty.
12:4 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.
12:5 And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others;
beating some, and killing some.
12:6 Having yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him also
last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.
12:7 But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir;
come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.
12:8 And they took him, and killed him, and cast him
out of the
vineyard.
12:9 What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will
come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto
others.
12:10 And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders
rejected is become the head of the corner:
12:11 This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?
12:12 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.
12:13 And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the
Herodians,
to catch him in his words.
12:14 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?
12:15 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.
12:16 And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is
this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's.
12:17 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.
12:18 Then come unto him the Sadducees, which say there is no
resurrection;
and they asked him, saying,
12:19 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.
12:20 Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife,
and dying left no seed.
12:21 And the second took her, and died, neither left he any
seed:
and the third likewise.
12:22 And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the
woman died also.
12:23 In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife
shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.
12:24 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err,
because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?
12:25 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.
12:26 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?
12:27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living:
ye therefore do greatly err.
12:28 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?
12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is,
Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
12:30 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.
12:31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt
love thy
neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater
than
these.
12:32 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:
12:33 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.
12:34 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.
12:35 And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How
say the scribes that Christ is the son of David?
12:36 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.
12:37 David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then
his son? And the common people heard him gladly.
12:38 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,
12:39 And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms
at feasts:
12:40 Which devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long
prayers:
these shall receive greater damnation.
12:41 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.
12:42 And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites,
which make a farthing.
12:43 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:
12:44 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.

13:1 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!
13:2 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.
13:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple,
Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,
13:4 Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be
the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?
13:5 And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man
deceive you:
13:6 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and
shall
deceive many.
13:7 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.
13:8 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.
13:9 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.
13:10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations.
13:11 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.
13:12 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.
13:13 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.
13:14 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:
13:15 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:
13:16 And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take
up his garment.
13:17 But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck
in those days!
13:18 And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter.
13:19 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.
13:20 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.
13:21 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ;
or,
lo, he is there; believe him not:
13:22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall show
signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the
elect.
13:23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
13:24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be
darkened,
and the moon shall not give her light,
13:25 And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in
heaven shall be shaken.
13:26 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with
great power and glory.
13:27 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.
13:28 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet
tender,
and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near:
13:29 So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to
pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors.
13:30 Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till
all these things be done.
13:31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not
pass away.
13:32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the
angels
which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
13:33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the
time is.
13:34 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.
13:35 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:
13:36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.
13:37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

14:1 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.
14:2 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an
uproar
of the people.
14:3 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.
14:4 And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and
said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?
14:5 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence,
and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
14:6 And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath
wrought a good work on me.
14:7 For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye
may do them good: but me ye have not always.
14:8 She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to
anoint
my body to the burying.
14:9 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.
14:10 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief
priests,
to betray him unto them.
14:11 And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to
give
him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.
14:12 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?
14:13 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.
14:14 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?
14:15 And he will show you a large upper room furnished and
prepared:
there make ready for us.
14:16 And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found
as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.
14:17 And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.
14:18 And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you,
One of you which eateth with me shall betray me.
14:19 And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is
it I? and another said, Is it I?
14:20 And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the
twelve,
that dippeth with me in the dish.
14:21 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.
14:22 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.
14:23 And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it
to them: and they all drank of it.
14:24 And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament,
which is shed for many.
14:25 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.
14:26 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount
of Olives.
14:27 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.
14:28 But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.
14:29 But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will
not I.
14:30 And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even
in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt
deny me thrice.
14:31 But he spake the more vehemently, If I should die with thee,
I will not deny thee in any wise. Likewise also said they all.
14:32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and
he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray.
14:33 And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to
be sore amazed, and to be very heavy;
14:34 And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto
death:
tarry ye here, and watch.
14:35 And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed
that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.
14:36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto
thee;
take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but
what
thou wilt.
14:37 And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter,
Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour?
14:38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The
spirit
truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.
14:39 And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words.
14:40 And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their
eyes were heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him.
14:41 And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now,
and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come;
behold, the
Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
14:42 Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.
14:43 And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the
twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the
chief priests and the scribes and the elders.
14:44 And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying,
Whomsoever
I shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away
safely.
14:45 And as soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him, and
saith, Master, master; and kissed him.
14:46 And they laid their hands on him, and took him.
14:47 And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant
of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
14:48 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as
against
a thief, with swords and with staves to take me?
14:49 I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me
not:
but the scriptures must be fulfilled.
14:50 And they all forsook him, and fled.
14:51 And there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth
cast about his naked body; and the young men laid hold
on him:
14:52 And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.
14:53 And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him
were assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.
14:54 And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the
high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at
the fire.
14:55 And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness
against Jesus to put him to death; and found none.
14:56 For many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed
not together.
14:57 And there arose certain, and bare false witness against him,
saying,
14:58 We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with
hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.
14:59 But neither so did their witness agree together.
14:60 And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus,
saying,
Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness
against
thee?
14:61 But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the
high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son
of the Blessed?
14:62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man
sitting
on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
14:63 Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we
any further witnesses?
14:64 Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they
all condemned him to be guilty of death.
14:65 And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to
buffet him, and to say unto him, Prophesy: and the servants did
strike
him with the palms of their hands.
14:66 And as Peter was beneath in the palace, there cometh one of the
maids of the high priest:
14:67 And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon him,
and said, And thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.
14:68 But he denied, saying, I know not, neither understand I what
thou sayest. And he went out into the porch; and the cock crew.
14:69 And a maid saw him again, and began to say to them that stood
by, This is one of them.
14:70 And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood
by said again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for
thou art
a Galilaean, and thy speech agreeth thereto.
14:71 But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not
this
man of whom ye speak.
14:72 And the second time the cock crew. And Peter called to
mind the word that Jesus said unto him, Before the cock crow twice,
thou
shalt deny me thrice. And when he thought thereon, he wept.

15:1 And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a
consultation
with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and
carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.
15:2 And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And
he answering said unto him, Thou sayest it.
15:3 And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he
answered nothing.
15:4 And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing?
behold how many things they witness against thee.
15:5 But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.
15:6 Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner,
whomsoever
they desired.
15:7 And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound
with them
that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the
insurrection.
15:8 And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do
as
he had ever done unto them.
15:9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto
you the King of the Jews?
15:10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.
15:11 But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather
release Barabbas unto them.
15:12 And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then
that I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?
15:13 And they cried out again, Crucify him.
15:14 Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done?
And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.
15:15 And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released
Barabbas
unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be
crucified.
15:16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium;
and they call together the whole band.
15:17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns,
and put it about his head,
15:18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!
15:19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon
him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.
15:20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him,
and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.
15:21 And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out
of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.
15:22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being
interpreted,
The place of a skull.
15:23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but
he received it not.
15:24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments,
casting
lots upon them, what every man should take.
15:25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.
15:26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE
KING OF THE JEWS.
15:27 And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand,
and the other on his left.
15:28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered
with the transgressors.
15:29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and
saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in
three
days,
15:30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross.
15:31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves
with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.
15:32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that
we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him
reviled
him.
15:33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the
whole land until the ninth hour.
15:34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying,
Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My
God,
my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
15:35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said,
Behold,
he calleth Elias.
15:36 And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar, and put it
on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether
Elias will come to take him down.
15:37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.
15:38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to
the bottom.
15:39 And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that
he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the
Son of God.
15:40 There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was
Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and
Salome;
15:41 (Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered
unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.
15:42 And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation,
that is, the day before the sabbath,
15:43 Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited
for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and
craved
the body of Jesus.
15:44 And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto
him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been
any while dead.
15:45 And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to
Joseph.
15:46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him
in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock,
and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre.
15:47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld
where
he was laid.

16:1 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother
of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and
anoint him.
16:2 And very early in the morning the first day of the week,
they
came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.
16:3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone
from the door of the sepulchre?
16:4 And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled
away:
for it was very great.
16:5 And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting
on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were
affrighted.
16:6 And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus
of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not
here:
behold the place where they laid him.
16:7 But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before
you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.
16:8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they
trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man;
for they were afraid.
16:9 Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of
the week,
he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven
devils.
16:10 And she went and told them that had been with him, as
they
mourned and wept.
16:11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been
seen of her, believed not.
16:12 After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they
walked, and went into the country.
16:13 And they went and told it unto the residue: neither
believed
they them.
16:14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and
upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they
believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.
16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the
gospel to every creature.
16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that
believeth not shall be damned.
16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall
they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
16:18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing,
it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they
shall
recover.
16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received
up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
16:20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working
with them, and confirming the word with signs following.
Amen.
