, as
the people
pressed upon
him to
hear
the word of God, he stood
by the lake of Gennesaret ,
Now
it happened
, while
the multitude
pressed on
him and

by the lake of Gennesaret .
And
saw two ships
standing by the lake :
but the fishermen were
gone out of them, and were washing their nets.

saw two boats
standing by the lake ,

And
he entered into one of the ships

him that
he
would
thrust
out a little from the land. And
he sat down ,
and taught the people
out
of
the ship
.
He entered into one of the boats

Simon, Launch
out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught
.
When he had finished
speaking, he said to
Simon, "Put
out into the deep, and let down your nets for a catch
. "
And
Simon answering
said
unto
him, Master, we have
toiled
all the
night, and have
taken
nothing :
nevertheless
at thy
word I will let down the net.
Simon answered
him, "
Master, we worked
all night, and took
nothing ;

at your
word I will let down the net. "

ships
, so that they began to sink.

for I am a sinful man, O
Lord.

saw it, fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "
Depart from me ,
for I am a sinful man, Lord. "
For he was astonished
, and all that
were with him, at the draught
of the
fishes
which they had taken:
For he was amazed
, and all who
were with him, at the catch
of fish
which they had caught;
And so was
also James ,
and John, the
sons of Zebedee, which
were partners with Simon. And
Jesus said unto
Simon, Fear
not;
from henceforth
thou
shalt
catch
men
.
and so also were
James and John, sons of Zebedee, who
were partners with Simon. Jesus said to
Simon, "Don't
be
afraid.
From now
on
you
will
be
catching
people
alive
. "

when they had brought their ships
to land, they forsook
all
, and followed him.

make me clean.

the housetop, and let him down through the tiling
with his couch

said
unto
them, What
reason
ye
in your hearts?
But Jesus ,
perceiving
their thoughts, answered
them, "Why
are
you
reasoning
so
in your hearts?
Whether
is easier ,
to say, Thy
sins be
forgiven thee
; or to say, Rise
up
and walk?
Which
is easier to say, 'Your
sins are
forgiven you
; '
or to say, 'Arise
and walk? '
But that ye
may know that the Son of man hath
power
upon
earth to forgive sins ,
(he said unto
the
sick
of
the palsy,
) I say
unto
thee
, Arise, and take up thy
couch
, and go into
thine
house.

may know that the Son of Man has
authority
on
earth to forgive sins "

you

cot

your
house. "

make the children
of the bridechamber
fast, while the bridegroom is with them?

them, "

of the bridegroom
fast, while the bridegroom is with them?

when the bridegroom shall
be taken away from them ,
and
then shall
they fast in those days.

And
he spake
also a parable unto
them ;
No man
putteth
a piece of
a new garment upon
an old ;
if
otherwise
, then
both
the new maketh
a
rent
, and the piece that
was
taken
out
of
the new agreeth
not with
the old.
He also told
a parable to
them .
"
No one
puts
a piece from
a new garment on
an old garment
, or
else
he
will
tear
the new, and also
the piece from
the new will
not match
the old.
And
no man
putteth
new wine into old bottles;
else the new wine will burst the bottles
, and be spilled, and the bottles
shall
perish
.
No one
puts
new wine into old wineskins,
or
else the new wine will burst the skins
, and it
will
be spilled, and the skins
will
be
destroyed
.
But new wine must be put into new
bottles;
and both are preserved.
But new wine must be put into fresh
wineskins,
and both are preserved.
No man also
having drunk old wine straightway
desireth
new :
for he saith
, The old is better.
No man having drunk old wine immediately
desires
new ,
for he says
, '
The old is better. '"
