came to Him and
He taught
them
, as
was His
custom
.
He
arose
from
there
and came
into the borders
of Judea and
beyond the Jordan. Multitudes
came together
to him again.

Moses permitted
a
man
to
write
his
wife
a certificate of divorce and send
her away
. ”
They said
, "
Moses allowed
a certificate of divorce to
be
written,
and to
divorce
her. "

wrote
this
commandment
for you
because
of
your hardness of heart.

wrote
you

from the beginning of creation, ‘
God made them male and female. ’

For this reason
a man will leave his father and mother and be

For this cause
a man will leave his father and mother ,
and will
join
to his wife,
and the two will become one flesh .’
So they are no longer two, but one flesh.

what God has joined together, let man not
separate. ”

So
He told
them, “
Whoever divorces his wife and marries another woman
commits adultery against her.
He said
to
them, "
Whoever divorces his wife ,
and marries another ,
commits adultery against her.
And
if a woman divorces her husband and marries another man
, she commits adultery. ”

divorces her husband ,
and marries another, she commits adultery. "

them, “Let
the little children come to Me ,
and
do
not
hinder
them
! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

, he was moved
with
indignation,
and said
to
them, "Allow
the little children to

them,

not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never
enter it. ”

assuredly
I tell you, whoever

may
inherit eternal life? "
“
Why do you call Me good? ”

man
was
saddened
by
these
words
and went away in
sorrow
, because
he had great wealth
.
But his
face
fell
at
that
saying,
and he

rich
to enter the kingdom of God! ”

through the
eye
of
a needle
than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. ”

astonished ,

Peter began to say
to
Him, “Look
, we have left everything
and followed You. ”
Peter began to tell
him, "Behold
, we have left all,
and have
followed you. "
“Truly
I tell you, ”

replied,

or brothers or sisters or mother or father
or children or fields
for My sake and for the gospel
Jesus
said,
"Most
assuredly
I tell you, there
is
no one who has left house,
or brothers ,
or sisters ,
or father,
or
mother ,
or wife,
or children ,
or land,
for my sake ,
and for the Gospel's
sake,

to
receive a
hundredfold
in the
present
age—
houses and
brothers and
sisters and
mothers and
children and fields
, along
with persecutions —
and in the age to come ,
eternal life.

As
they were going up the
road
to Jerusalem ,
Jesus was walking
ahead
of them .
The
disciples
were amazed ,
but
those who followed were afraid. Again Jesus
took the Twelve aside
and began to tell them what
was
going to happen to Him :
They were on
the
way,
going up to Jerusalem ;
and
Jesus was going
in
front
of them ,
and
they
were amazed ;
and
those who followed were afraid. He
again took the twelve ,
and began to tell them the
things
that
were
going to happen to him .

, we are going up to Jerusalem ,
and
the Son of Man will be delivered over
to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn Him to death and will deliver Him over
to the Gentiles ,

Him and kill Him. And
after
three
days
He will rise again. ”

will mock him ,

Then

and
declared
, “
Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask. ”
James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came near
to him
, saying,

He
inquired.
He
said
to
them,

, “
Grant that
one
of
us may sit at Your right hand and the
other
at Your left in Your glory. ”
They said
to
him
, "
Grant to
us that
we
may sit ,
one
at your right hand ,
and one
at your left hand,
in your glory. "
“
You do
not
know what you are asking ,”
Jesus
replied
. “Can
you drink the cup I will
drink, or
be baptized with the baptism I will
undergo
? ”
But
Jesus
said
to
them,
"
You don't
know what you are asking. Are
you able
to
drink the cup that
I drink, and
to
be baptized with the baptism that
I am
baptized
with
? "
“We
can
, ”
the
brothers
answered
. “
You will
drink the cup that I drink, ”
Jesus
said,
“
and you will
be baptized with the baptism that I undergo.
They
said
to
him
, "We
are
able
. "
Jesus
said
to
them,
"
You shall
indeed
drink the cup that I drink, and you shall
be baptized with the baptism that I am
baptized
with;
But to sit at My right or
left is not Mine to grant.
These
seats
belong
to
those
for whom they
have
been prepared. ”
but to sit at my right hand
and
at
my
left hand
is not mine to give,
but
for whom it
has
been prepared. "

Jesus called
them together
and said, “
You know that those
regarded
as rulers of
the Gentiles lord it over them, and their superiors
exercise authority over them.
Jesus summoned
them ,
and said to
them
, "
You know that they
who
are
recognized
as rulers over
the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great
ones
exercise authority over them.
But it shall not be this
way
among you .
Instead
, whoever wants to become great among you must
be your servant ,
But it shall not be so
among you, but
whoever wants to become great among you shall
be your servant .
and
whoever wants to be
first must
be the
slave
of all.
Whoever of
you
wants to become
first among
you,
shall
be bondservant
of all.

the Son of Man did
not come
to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many. ”

came
not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many. "

admonished
him to
be silent
, but he cried out all
the
louder
, “
Son of David, have mercy on me! ”
Many rebuked
him ,
that
he
should
be quiet
, but he cried out much
more
, "You
son of David, have mercy on me! "
Jesus stopped
and said, “
Call him. ”
So
they called the blind man .

courage
! ”
they
said.
“
Get up !
He is calling for
you .”
Jesus stood
still,
and said, "
Call him. "

saying
to
him,
"Cheer
up
! Get up .

off
his cloak, Bartimaeus
jumped
up and came to Jesus.

casting
away
his cloak, sprang
up ,
and came to Jesus.
“
What do you want Me to do for you? ”
Jesus
asked.

said
the blind man, “let
me
see again. ”

asked
him,
"
What do you want me to do for you? "
The blind man said
to
him
, "Rhabboni,
that
I
may
see again. "
“Go,”
said
Jesus, “
your faith has healed
you. ”
And
immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along
the road
.
Jesus said
to
him
, "Go
your way.
Your
faith has made
you well
. "
Immediately he received his sight ,
and followed Jesus in
the way
.
