King James Version
At
which
time
the
myriads
of
the multitude
having
been
gathered together, so
as
to
tread
upon
one another, he began to say unto his disciples ,
first, `Take
heed
to
yourselves
of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy ;
In
the mean
time,
when
there
were
gathered together an
innumerable
multitude
of
people
, insomuch
that
they
trode
one upon
another, he began to say unto his disciples first of
all
, Beware
ye
of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy .
and
there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and
hid, that shall not be known ;
For
there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither
hid, that shall not be known .
because
whatever
in
the
darkness
ye said,
in the
light
shall be heard :
and
what
to
the ear
ye spake
in the inner-chambers,
shall be proclaimed upon the house-tops
.
Therefore
whatsoever
ye have
spoken
in darkness
shall be heard in
the light;
and
that
which
ye have
spoken
in the ear
in
closets
shall be proclaimed upon the housetops
.
`
And I say to
you ,
my friends, be not afraid of those
killing
the body, and after these
things
are
not
having
anything
over
to
do ;
And I say unto
you my friends, Be not afraid of them
that
kill
the body, and after that
have
no
more
that
they
can
do .
but I will show
to
you ,
whom ye may
fear ;
Fear him who
, after the
killing,
is
having
authority
to cast to
the
gehenna
; yes
, I say to
you, Fear ye
Him.
But I will forewarn
you whom ye shall
fear :
Fear him, which
after he
hath
killed
hath
power
to cast into
hell
; yea
, I say unto
you, Fear him.
`
Are not five sparrows sold for two assars?
and one of them is not
forgotten before God ,
Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings,
and not
one of them is forgotten before God ?
but even the hairs of your head have
been
all numbered ;
therefore
fear ye
not ,
than
many
sparrows
ye are of more value.
But even the very
hairs of your head are
all numbered .
Fear not therefore:
ye are of more value than
many
sparrows
.
`And
I say to
you, Every
one
--
whoever
may
confess with
me before men, the Son of Man also shall
confess with
him
before the messengers
of God ,
Also
I say unto
you, Whosoever
shall
confess me before men, him
shall
the Son of man also confess before the angels
of God :
and
he who
hath
denied
me before men ,
shall be denied before the messengers
of God ,
But
he that
denieth
me before men shall be denied before the angels
of God .
and every
one
whoever
shall say
a word to
the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven to
him ,
but to
him who
to
the Holy Spirit
did
speak
evil,
it shall not be forgiven.
And whosoever
shall speak
a word against
the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him :
but unto
him that
blasphemeth
against
the Holy Ghost
it shall not be forgiven.
`
And when they bring you before
the synagogues, and the
rulers
, and the
authorities
, be
not
anxious
how or what ye may
reply
, or what ye may
say ,
And when they bring you unto
the synagogues, and unto
magistrates
, and powers
, take
ye
no
thought
how or what thing
ye shall
answer
, or what ye shall
say :
for the Holy Spirit
shall teach you in that
hour what it
behoveth
`you'
to say. '
For the Holy Ghost
shall teach you in the
same
hour what ye
ought
to say.
And a
certain
one said
to
him,
out
of the multitude
, `Teacher
, say
to my brother to
divide with
me
the inheritance. '
And one of the company
said
unto
him
, Master
, speak
to my brother ,
that
he
divide the inheritance with
me
.
And he said to
him, `
Man, who set
me a judge or a divider over you? '
And he said unto
him, Man, who made
me a judge or a divider over you?
And he said unto them, `Observe
, and beware of the
covetousness ,
because
not in the abundance of one's
goods
is
his
life
. '
And he said unto them, Take
heed
, and beware of covetousness :
for
a
man's
life
consisteth
not in the abundance of the
things
which
he
possesseth
.
And he spake a simile
unto them, saying, `
Of a certain rich man the
field
brought forth well;
And he spake a parable
unto them, saying, The
ground
of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
and he was
reasoning
within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have not
where I
shall
gather
together
my fruits?
And he thought
within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no
room
where to
bestow
my fruits?
and he said, This I
will do ,
I will take
down my storehouses
, and greater
ones
I
will
build ,
and I
will
gather
together
there all my products
and my good
things,
And he said, This will I
do :
I will pull
down my barns
, and build greater;
and there will
I
bestow
all my fruits
and my goods.
and I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast many
good
things
laid up for many years ,
be
resting
, eat, drink, be merry.
And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much
goods
laid up for many years ;
take
thine
ease
, eat, drink, and
be merry.
`And
God said to
him, Unthinking
one!
this night thy soul they
shall require
from
thee ,
and
what
things
thou
didst
prepare
--
to
whom
shall they
be?
But
God said unto
him, Thou
fool,
this night thy soul shall be
required
of
thee :
then
whose
shall those
things
be ,
which
thou
hast
provided
?
so `
is '
he who
is
treasuring
up to
himself, and is not rich toward God. '
So is he that
layeth
up treasure
for
himself, and is not rich toward God.
And he said unto his disciples, `Because
of
this,
to
you
I say, Be
not
anxious
for your life, what ye may
eat; nor
for the body, what ye may
put on ;
And he said unto his disciples, Therefore
I say unto
you
, Take
no
thought
for your life, what ye shall
eat; neither
for the body, what ye shall
put on .
the life is more than the
nourishment
, and the body than the
clothing
.
The life is more than meat
, and the body is
more
than raiment
.
`
Consider the ravens ,
that
they sow not,
nor reap ,
to
which there
is
no
barn
nor
storehouse ,
and God doth
nourish
them ;
how much better
are ye than the fowls?
Consider the ravens :
for
they neither
sow nor reap ;
which neither
have
storehouse nor
barn;
and God feedeth
them :
how much more
are ye better
than the fowls?
and who
of you ,
being
anxious,
is
able
to
add to his age
one cubit?
And which
of you with
taking
thought
can
add to his stature
one cubit?
If ,
then,
ye are
not able for
the
least --
why for the rest are
ye
anxious
?
If ye then
be
not able to
do
that
thing
which
is
least ,
why take
ye
thought
for the rest?
`
Consider the lilies ,
how do
they grow ?
they labour
not, nor
do
they spin ,
and I say to
you, not
even
Solomon in all his glory was arrayed as
one of these ;
Consider the lilies how they grow :
they toil
not, they spin not;
and yet
I say unto
you, that
Solomon in all his glory was not
arrayed like
one of these .
and
if the
herbage
in
the field
, that
to -
day is
, and to -
morrow into
an
oven
is cast ,
God
doth
so
clothe,
how much more you --
ye of little faith?
If then
God
so
clothe
the grass
, which
is
to day in
the
field
, and to morrow is cast into
the
oven;
how much more will
he
clothe
you ,
O
ye of little faith?
`
And ye
--
seek not what ye may
eat, or what ye may
drink, and
be not
in
suspense,
And seek not ye
what ye shall
eat, or what ye shall
drink, neither
be ye
of
doubtful
mind.
for all these things do the nations of the world seek after ,
and your Father hath
known
that ye have need of these things ;
For all these things do the nations of the world seek after :
and your Father knoweth
that ye have need of these things .
but ,
seek ye the reign
of God ,
and all these things shall be added to
you.
But rather
seek ye the kingdom
of God ;
and all these things shall be added unto
you.
`
Fear not, little flock ,
because
your Father
did
delight
to give you the reign;
Fear not, little flock ;
for
it
is
your Father's
good
pleasure
to give you the kingdom.
sell your
goods
, and give alms ,
make
to
yourselves bags that
become
not old, a treasure unfailing
in the heavens, where thief doth
not
come
near
, nor
moth destroy;
Sell that
ye
have
, and give alms ;
provide
yourselves bags which
wax
not old, a treasure in the heavens that
faileth
not
, where no
thief approacheth
, neither
moth corrupteth.
for where your treasure is, there also
your heart will
be.
For where your treasure is, there will
your heart be also
.
`
Let your loins be girded, and the
lamps
burning ,
Let your loins be girded about
, and your
lights
burning ;
and ye like to
men waiting
for their lord, when he shall
return out
of
the wedding feasts,
that he having
come
and knocked
, immediately
they may open to
him.
And ye yourselves
like unto
men that
wait
for their lord, when he will
return from
the wedding ;
that when
he cometh
and knocketh
, they may open unto
him immediately
.
`Happy
those servants, whom the lord ,
having
come,
shall find watching ;
verily I say to
you, that he will
gird himself, and will
cause
them to recline
(at
meat )
, and having
come
near,
will minister
to
them ;
Blessed
are
those servants, whom the lord when
he
cometh
shall find watching :
verily I say unto
you, that he shall
gird himself, and make
them to sit
down
to
meat, and will come
forth
and
serve
them .
and if he may
come in the second watch, and
in the third watch he
may
come
, and may
find `it'
so, happy
are those servants.
And if he shall
come in the second watch, or
come
in the third watch, and find them
so, blessed
are those servants.
`
And this know, that if the master
of the house had known what hour the thief doth
come, he would have watched, and would
not have suffered his house to be broken through ;
And this know, that if the goodman
of the house had known what hour the thief would
come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through .
and
ye,
then,
become
ye ready ,
because
at
the hour ye think not ,
the
Son
of
Man
doth
come
. '
Be
ye therefore
ready also:
for
the Son
of
man
cometh
at
an
hour when
ye think not.
And
Peter said to
him, `Sir
, unto us this
simile
dost
thou
speak
, or also
unto
all? '
Then
Peter said unto
him, Lord
, speakest
thou
this
parable
unto us, or even
to
all?
And the Lord said, `
Who ,
then ,
is the
faithful and prudent
steward whom the
lord shall set
over his household, to give in season the
wheat
measure
?
And the Lord said, Who then is that
faithful and wise
steward ,
whom his
lord shall make
ruler
over his household, to give them
their
portion
of
meat
in due
season?
Happy
that servant, whom his lord ,
having
come,
shall find doing
so ;
Blessed
is
that servant, whom his lord when
he
cometh
shall find so doing.
truly
I say to
you, that over
all
his
goods
he will set
him.
Of
a
truth
I say unto
you, that he will make
him ruler
over
all
that
he
hath
.
`
And if that servant may
say in his heart, My lord doth
delay
to
come,
and may
begin to beat the men-servants
and the
maid-servants
, to eat also,
and to
drink, and to be drunken;
But
and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth
his
coming;
and shall
begin to beat the menservants
and maidens
, and
to eat and drink, and to be drunken;
the lord of that servant will come in a day in
which
he doth
not look
for `
him '
, and in
an hour that
he doth
not know
, and will cut him off
, and his portion with the unfaithful
he
will
appoint
.
The lord of that servant will come in a day when
he looketh
not for him, and at
an hour when
he is
not aware
, and will cut him in
sunder
, and will
appoint
him
his portion with the unbelievers
.
`
And that servant, who
having
known
his lord's will, and not
having
prepared, nor
having
gone
according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes ,
And that servant, which
knew
his lord's will, and prepared not
himself
, neither
did
according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes .
and
he who,
not having
known
, and having
done
things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few ;
and
to
every
one
to
whom
much was
given, much
shall be required from
him;
and to whom they
did
commit
much, more
abundantly
they will ask of
him
.
But
he that
knew
not, and did
commit
things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes.
For
unto
whomsoever
much is
given, of
him
shall be much
required :
and to whom men
have
committed
much, of
him
they will ask the
more
.
`Fire
I came
to
cast
to the earth ,
and what will I if already
it was
kindled?
I am
come
to send
fire
on
the earth ;
and what will I ,
if it be
already
kindled?
but I have a baptism to be baptized with ,
and how am I pressed
till it may
be completed
!
But I have a baptism to be baptized with ;
and how am I straitened
till it be accomplished
!
`Think
ye that peace
I came
to give in
the
earth? no,
I say
to
you, but rather division ;
Suppose
ye that I am
come
to give peace
on
earth? I tell
you, Nay;
but rather division :
for there shall be henceforth
five in one house divided --
three against two, and two against three ;
For from
henceforth
there shall be five in one house divided ,
three against two, and two against three .
a
father shall be divided against a
son, and a
son against a
father ,
a
mother against a
daughter, and a
daughter against a
mother ,
a
mother -
in -
law against her daughter -
in -
law, and a
daughter -
in -
law against her mother -
in -
law. '
The
father shall be divided against the
son, and the
son against the
father ;
the
mother against the
daughter, and the
daughter against the
mother ;
the
mother in law against her daughter in law, and the
daughter in law against her mother in law.
And he said also to the multitudes
, `
When ye may
see the
cloud rising
from
the west, immediately
ye say, A shower doth
come,
and it is so;
And he said also to the people
, When ye see a
cloud rise
out
of
the west, straightway
ye say, There
cometh
a shower ;
and so
it is .
and when --
a
south wind blowing
, ye say, that
there will be heat ,
and it is;
And when ye
see
the
south wind blow
, ye say, There will be heat ;
and it cometh
to
pass.
hypocrites !
the face of the earth
and of the heaven
ye
have
known
to
make
proof
of,
but this
time
--
how do
ye not make
proof
of
`it'
?
Ye
hypocrites ,
ye
can
discern
the face of the sky
and of the earth;
but how is
it
that
ye do
not discern
this
time
?
`
And why ,
also,
of yourselves ,
judge ye not what is righteous
?
Yea,
and why even
of yourselves judge ye not what is right
?
for,
as
thou art
going
away
with thy
opponent
to the ruler
, in the way give diligence to
be released
from him ,
lest he may
drag
thee unto
the judge, and the judge may
deliver thee to the officer, and the officer may
cast thee into prison ;
When
thou goest
with thine
adversary
to the magistrate
, as
thou
art
in the way ,
give diligence that
thou
mayest
be delivered
from him ;
lest he hale
thee to
the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison .
I say
to
thee, thou mayest
not come
forth
thence till even
the last mite thou
mayest
give
back
. '
I tell
thee, thou shalt
not depart
thence ,
till thou
hast
paid
the very
last mite.
