Berean Standard Bible
And
it
came
to
pass,
in
his
being
in a certain
place praying, as
he
ceased,
a
certain
one of his disciples said
unto
him
, `Sir
, teach us to pray, as also
John taught his disciples. '
One
day
in a place where
Jesus
had
just
finished
praying, one of His disciples requested
, “Lord
, teach us to pray, just
as John taught his disciples. ”
And
he
said
to
them, `
When ye
may
pray, say ye
: Our
Father who
art
in
the
heavens;
hallowed be Thy
name :
Thy
reign
come;
Thy
will
come to
pass,
as
in
heaven
also
on
earth;
So
Jesus
told
them, “
When you
pray, say: ‘
Father ,
hallowed be Your
name .
Your
kingdom
come .
our
appointed
bread
be
giving
us daily ;
Give
us each
day
our
daily bread.
and forgive us our sins, for also
we ourselves
forgive every
one
indebted
to
us ;
and mayest
Thou
not
bring
us into temptation ;
but
do
Thou
deliver
us
from
the
evil
. '
And forgive us our sins, for we also
forgive everyone
who
sins
against
us .
And lead
us not
into temptation. ’”
And
he
said unto
them, `Who
of you shall
have
a
friend ,
and
shall
go
on
unto
him
at midnight ,
and may
say
to
him
, Friend, lend me three loaves,
Then
Jesus
said to
them, “Suppose
one
of you goes
to
his
friend at midnight and says
, ‘
Friend, lend me three loaves of
bread
,
seeing
a friend of mine came
out
of
the
way
unto
me, and I have not
what
I
shall
set before him ,
because
a friend of mine has
come
to
me on
a
journey
, and I have nothing
to
set before him .’
and he
from
within
answering
may
say
, Do not give
me trouble,
already
the
door hath
been
shut, and my children with
me
are in the
bed ,
I am
not
able,
having
risen,
to give to
thee
.
And suppose
the
one
inside
answers
, ‘
Do not bother
me .
My
door is
already
shut, and my children and
I
are in bed .
I cannot
get
up
to give you
anything
. ’
`
I say
to
you, even if
he will not give
to him ,
having
risen,
because of his being
his
friend
, yet because of his
importunity,
having
risen
, he will give him as many
as he doth
need;
I tell
you, even though
he will not get
up
to provide
for
him because of his friendship
, yet because of the
man’s
persistence
, he will get
up
and
give him as much
as he needs.
and
I say
to
you ,
Ask, and it shall
be given to you; seek, and ye
shall
find; knock, and it
shall
be opened to you ;
So
I tell
you :
Ask, and it will
be given to you; seek, and you
will
find; knock, and the
door
will
be opened to you .
for every
one
who is
asking
doth
receive
; and
he who is
seeking
doth
find
; and to him who is
knocking
it
shall
be opened.
For everyone
who asks
receives
; he who seeks
finds
; and to him who knocks,
the
door
will
be opened.
`And
of
which
of
you
--
the
father --
if the
son shall
ask
a loaf
, a
stone
will he
present
to
him ?
and
if
a fish,
will
he
instead of
a
fish,
a
serpent
present
to
him
?
What
father among
you,
if his
son asks
for
a fish
, will give
him a snake
instead?
and
if he may
ask
an egg, will he
present
to
him a scorpion?
Or
if he asks
for
an egg, will give
him a scorpion?
If ,
then,
ye,
being
evil ,
have
known
good gifts to be
giving
to
your children, how much more shall
the
Father who
is
from
heaven give the Holy Spirit to those asking
Him! '
So
if you
who
are
evil know
how
to
give
good gifts to your children, how much more will
your
Father in
heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who
ask
Him! ”
And
he
was casting
forth
a demon ,
and
it
was dumb,
and it
came
to
pass,
the demon having
gone forth
, the dumb
man spake,
and
the multitudes
wondered
,
One
day
Jesus
was driving
out
a demon that
was mute.
And when
the demon was
gone, the man who
had
been
mute
spoke.
The crowds
were
amazed
,
and
certain
of them said, `
By Beelzeboul
, ruler
of the demons, he doth
cast
forth
the
demons ;'
but
some
of them said, “It
is
by Beelzebul
, the
prince
of the demons, that
He drives
out
demons .”
and others ,
tempting,
a sign out
of
heaven
from him
were
asking
.
And others tested
Him
by
demanding
a sign from heaven
.
And
he,
knowing their thoughts, said to them, `
Every kingdom having
been
divided against itself is
desolated;
and house against house doth
fall ;
Knowing their thoughts, Jesus
said to them, “
Every kingdom divided against itself will
be
laid
waste,
and a
house divided
against a
house will
fall .
and
if also
the
Adversary
against himself was
divided
, how shall
his kingdom be
made
to
stand? for
ye
say
, by
Beelzeboul
is
my
casting
forth
the
demons.
If Satan
is
divided
against himself, how can
his kingdom stand? After
all
, you
say
that
I
drive
out
demons by
Beelzebul
.
`But
if I by
Beelzeboul
cast
forth
the
demons --
your
sons
, by whom do they
cast
forth?
because
of
this
your judges
they shall
be ;
And
if I drive
out
demons by
Beelzebul
, by whom do your sons
drive
them
out?
So
then,
they will
be your
judges.
but if by the finger of God I
cast
forth
the
demons
, then come
unawares
upon
you
did
the reign
of God.
But if I
drive
out
demons
by the finger of God, then the kingdom
of God has
come
upon
you
.
`
When the
strong man armed may
keep
his hall
, in
peace
are
his goods;
When a
strong man ,
fully
armed ,
guards
his house
, his possessions
are
secure.
but when the
stronger than
he,
having
come
upon
`him',
may
overcome
him, his
whole-armour
he doth
take
away in which he
had
trusted, and his
spoils
he distributeth;
But when someone
stronger attacks
and
overpowers
him, he takes
away the
armor
in which the
man
trusted, and then
he divides
up
his
plunder.
he who is not with me is against me, and he who is
not gathering
with me doth
scatter
.
He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does
not gather
with Me scatters
.
`
When the
unclean spirit may
go
forth
from
the
man it walketh
through waterless
places seeking rest ,
and not finding,
it saith
, I will turn
back
to my
house whence
I came
forth;
When an
unclean spirit comes
out
of
a
man ,
it passes
through arid
places seeking rest and does
not find
it .
Then
it
says
, ‘
I will return
to the
house I left.’
and
having
come
, it findeth
`it'
swept and adorned;
On
its
return
, it finds
the
house
swept clean
and put
in
order.
then doth
it go,
and take
to
it
seven other spirits more evil
than itself, and having
entered,
they dwell there ,
and the last
of that man becometh
worst
than the first. '
Then it goes
and brings
seven other spirits more wicked
than itself, and they go
in
and
dwell there .
And the final
plight
of that man is
worse
than the first. ”
And
it
came
to
pass,
in
his
saying these things, a certain
woman having
lifted
up
the voice out
of
the
multitude,
said to
him
, `Happy
the womb that carried
thee
, and the paps
that thou
didst
suck
! '
As
Jesus
was
saying these things, a woman in
the crowd
raised
her
voice and
said, “Blessed
is
the womb that bore
You
, and blessed
are
the breasts
that nursed
You
! ”
And
he said,
`Yea
, rather ,
happy
those hearing
the word of God ,
and keeping
`
it '!'
But
He replied
, “Blessed
rather are
those who
hear
the word of God and obey
it .”
And
the multitudes
crowding
together
upon
him
, he
began
to
say
, `
This generation
is evil,
a sign
it doth
seek
after,
and
a sign shall
not
be given to
it ,
except the sign of Jonah the
prophet,
As
the crowds
were
increasing
, Jesus
said
, “
This is a wicked
generation.
It demands
a sign ,
but
none
will
be given it except the sign of Jonah .
for as Jonah became
a sign to the Ninevites, so also
shall
the Son of Man be to this generation.
For as Jonah was
a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will
be a
sign
to this generation.
`A
queen of the south shall
rise up
in
the judgment with the men of this generation ,
and shall
condemn them ,
because
she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon ;
and
lo
, greater than Solomon here !
The
Queen of the South will
rise at
the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them ;
for
she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and
now
One
greater than Solomon is
here .
`
Men of Nineveh shall
stand up
in
the judgment with this generation ,
and shall
condemn it ,
because
they reformed
at the proclamation
of Jonah ;
and
lo
, greater than Jonah here !
The
men of Nineveh will
stand at
the judgment with this generation and condemn it ;
for
they repented
at the preaching
of Jonah, and
now
One
greater than Jonah is
here .
`And
no one having
lighted
a lamp ,
doth
put
`
it '
in a secret
place,
nor
under the
measure
, but
on the
lamp-
stand, that
those coming
in
may
behold
the light.
No one lights
a lamp and
puts
it in a cellar
or
under a
basket.
Instead
, he
sets
it
on a
stand, so
those who
enter
can
see
the light.
`
The lamp of the
body is
the
eye,
when then
thine
eye
may
be
simple
, thy
whole body also is lightened;
and
when it
may
be
evil
, thy
body also
is darkened;
Your
eye
is
the lamp of your
body .
When your
eyes
are
good
, your
whole body also is full
of
light.
But
when they
are
bad
, your
body is full
of
darkness.
take
heed
, then, lest
the light that
`
is '
in
thee
be
darkness ;
Be
careful
, then, that
the light within
you
is not
darkness .
if then
thy
whole body is lightened
, not
having
any
part darkened
, the
whole
shall
be lightened
, as when
the
lamp by
the
brightness
may
give
thee
light
. '
So
if your
whole body is full
of
light
, with
no
part of
it
in
darkness
, you
will
be radiant
, as though
a
lamp were
shining
on
you
. ”
And
in
`his'
speaking, a certain
Pharisee was
asking
him that
he
might
dine with him ,
and
having
gone
in,
he reclined (
at meat),
As
Jesus
was
speaking, a Pharisee invited
Him to
dine with him ;
so
He went
in
and
reclined at the
table.
and
the Pharisee having
seen,
did
wonder
that he
did not first baptize
himself
before the dinner
.
But
the Pharisee was
surprised
to
see
that Jesus
did not first wash
before the meal
.
And
the
Lord
said
unto
him,
`
Now do
ye
, the Pharisees
, the outside of the cup and of
the
plate
make
clean
, but your
inward
part
is
full of rapine
and wickedness ;
“
Now then
, ”
said
the Lord
, “you
Pharisees
clean
the outside of the cup and dish
, but inside
you
are
full of greed
and wickedness .
unthinking
! did not He
who made the outside also
the inside make
?
You
fools
! Did not the
One
who made the outside make
the inside as
well
?
But what
ye
have
give ye
`
as '
alms ,
and,
lo,
all
things are clean to
you.
But give as alms the
things that
are within
you,
and
you
will
see
that
everything
is
clean for
you.
`But
wo
to you ,
the
Pharisees ,
because
ye
tithe
the
mint, and
the
rue, and every herb, and
ye
pass
by
the
judgment,
and the love of God ;
these
things
it
behoveth
to
do,
and
those
not
to
be
neglecting.
Woe
to you Pharisees !
You
pay
tithes
of
mint, rue, and every herb, but
you
disregard
justice
and the love of God .
You
should
have
practiced
the
latter
without
neglecting the
former
.
`Wo
to you ,
the
Pharisees ,
because
ye
love the first
seats in the synagogues ,
and the salutations
in the market-places
.
Woe
to you Pharisees !
You
love the chief
seats in the synagogues and the greetings
in the marketplaces
.
`Wo
to you ,
scribes
and
Pharisees,
hypocrites,
because
ye
are as
the
unseen
tombs
, and
the
men walking
above
have
not
known
. '
Woe
to you !
For
you
are like
unmarked
graves
, which
men walk
over
without
even
noticing
. ”
And
one of the lawyers
answering,
saith
to
him, `
Teacher, these things saying
, us
also
thou
dost
insult ;'
One of the experts
in
the
law
told
Him, “
Teacher, when
You
say
these things, You
insult us
as
well.”
and
he
said,
`And
to you, the lawyers,
wo
! because
ye
burden
men with burdens grievous
to
be
borne
, and
ye
yourselves with
one
of
your
fingers
do
not touch
the
burdens
.
“Woe
to you as
well
, experts
in
the law
! ”
He
replied.
“You
weigh
men down
with heavy
burdens, but
you
yourselves will
not lift
a
finger
to
lighten
their
load
.
`Wo
to you ,
because
ye
build the
tombs of
the prophets, and
your fathers killed them.
Woe
to you !
You
build tombs for
the prophets, but
it
was
your fathers who
killed them.
Then
do
ye
testify,
and
are well
pleased
with
the works
of your fathers ,
because
they indeed
killed them
, and ye
do
build their tombs ;
So
you
are witnesses
consenting
to
the deeds
of your fathers :
They killed the
prophets
, and you
build their tombs .
because of this also
the wisdom of God said :
I will send to
them prophets ,
and apostles ,
and
some of them they shall
kill and persecute ,
Because of this ,
the wisdom of God said ,
‘
I will send them prophets and apostles ;
some of them they will
kill and others
they
will
persecute .’
that
the blood of all the prophets ,
that is
being
poured
forth
from
the foundation of the world, may
be
required
from
this
generation;
As
a
result,
this
generation
will
be
charged
with
the blood of all the prophets that has
been
shed
since
the foundation of the world,
from the blood of Abel unto
the blood of Zacharias
, who perished
between the altar and the house;
yes, I say
to
you, It shall
be required
from
this generation.
from the blood of Abel to
the blood of Zechariah
, who was
killed
between the altar and the sanctuary.
Yes, I tell
you, all
of
it will
be charged
to
this generation.
`Wo
to you ,
the lawyers,
because
ye
took
away the key of
the
knowledge ;
yourselves ye
did
not enter;
and those coming
in,
ye
did
hinder
. '
Woe
to you experts
in
the law!
For
you
have
taken
away the key to
knowledge .
You
yourselves have
not entered,
and you
have
hindered
those who
were
entering
. ”
And
in
his
speaking
these
things
unto
them
, the scribes and the
Pharisees began fearfully
to urge
and to press
him to
speak
about many things,
As
Jesus
went
on
from
there
, the scribes and Pharisees began to oppose
Him
bitterly
and to ply
Him with
questions
about many things,
laying
wait
for
him,
and
seeking
to catch something out
of
his
mouth,
that
they
might accuse
him
.
waiting
to catch Him
in
something He
might say
.
