American Standard Version
Jesus
got
into a boat, crossed over, and came to
His own town
.
And
he
entered
into a boat, and
crossed over, and came into
his own city
.
Just
then
some
men
brought to Him a paralytic
lying on a mat.
When
Jesus saw
their faith ,
He
said to
the paralytic,
“Take
courage
, son; your
sins are forgiven. ”
And
behold,
they
brought to him a man
sick
of
the
palsy,
lying on a bed:
and
Jesus seeing
their faith said unto
the sick
of
the
palsy
, Son ,
be
of
good
cheer
; thy
sins are forgiven.
On
seeing
this
, some
of the scribes said to
themselves, “
This man is
blaspheming!”
And
behold
, certain
of the scribes said within
themselves, This man blasphemeth.
But
Jesus
knew
what
they
were
thinking
and said, “Why
do
you
harbor
evil in your hearts?
And Jesus
knowing
their
thoughts
said, Wherefore
think
ye
evil in your hearts?
Which is easier :
to say, ‘Your
sins are forgiven ,’
or to say, ‘Get
up
and walk? ’
For
which is easier ,
to say, Thy
sins are forgiven ;
or to say, Arise,
and walk?
But so
that you
may know that the Son of Man has
authority on earth to forgive sins ...”
Then He said
to the paralytic
, “Get
up
, pick
up your
mat
, and go home
. ”
But that ye
may know that the Son of man hath
authority on earth to forgive sins (
then saith
he to the sick
of
the
palsy)
, Arise
, and
take
up thy
bed
, and go up
unto
thy
house
.
And the
man
got
up
and went
home
.
And he
arose,
and departed
to
his
house
.
When the crowds
saw this
, they were filled
with
awe
and glorified God, who had given such authority to
men.
But
when the multitudes
saw it
, they were afraid,
and glorified God, who had given such authority unto
men.
As Jesus went
on
from there
, He saw a man named
Matthew sitting at the tax
booth.
“Follow
Me,”
He told
him, and Matthew
got
up
and followed Him.
And
as Jesus passed
by
from thence
, he saw a man ,
called
Matthew ,
sitting at the place
of
toll:
and
he saith
unto
him, Follow
me.
And he
arose,
and followed him.
Later
, as Jesus
was
dining
at Matthew’s
house, many tax
collectors
and sinners came and ate
with Him
and His disciples.
And
it
came
to
pass
, as he
sat
at meat
in
the
house, behold,
many publicans
and sinners came and sat
down
with Jesus
and his disciples.
When the Pharisees saw this
, they asked
His disciples, “
Why does
your Teacher eat
with tax
collectors
and sinners? ”
And
when the Pharisees saw it
, they said
unto
his disciples, Why eateth
your Teacher with the
publicans
and sinners?
On
hearing
this
, Jesus
said, “It
is
not
the
healthy
who
need a doctor
, but the
sick.
But
when
he
heard
it
, he
said, They
that
are
whole
have
no
need of
a physician
, but they
that
are
sick.
But go and learn what this means:
‘
I desire mercy, not sacrifice .’
For I have
not come
to call the righteous, but sinners. ”
But go ye
and learn what `
this '
meaneth,
I desire mercy, and
not sacrifice ,
for I came
not to call the righteous, but sinners.
At
that
time
John’s
disciples
came
to Jesus
and
asked
, “
Why is
it
that
we and the Pharisees fast so
often
, but Your
disciples do
not
fast? ”
Then
come
to him
the
disciples
of
John
, saying,
Why do
we and the Pharisees fast oft
, but thy
disciples fast not
?
Jesus replied
, “How
can the guests
of the bridegroom
mourn while
He
is with them? But the time
will come when the bridegroom will
be taken from them ;
then they
will fast.
And
Jesus said
unto
them
, Can the sons
of the bridechamber
mourn ,
as
long
as
the
bridegroom
is with them? but the days
will come ,
when the bridegroom shall
be taken away
from them ,
and
then will they
fast.
No one
sews
a patch
of unshrunk
cloth on
an old garment .
For the
patch
will
pull
away
from the garment, and a worse tear
will
result
.
And
no man
putteth
a piece
of undressed
cloth upon
an old garment ;
for that
which
should
fill
it
up
taketh
from the garment, and a worse rent
is
made
.
Neither do men pour
new wine into old wineskins.
If
they
do,
the skins will
burst, the wine will
spill
, and the wineskins
will
be
ruined.
Instead,
they pour
new wine into new
wineskins
, and both are preserved. ”
Neither do `
men '
put
new wine into old wine-skins:
else
the skins burst, and
the wine is
spilled
, and the skins
perish:
but
they put
new wine into fresh
wine-skins
, and both are preserved.
While Jesus
was
saying
these things, a
synagogue
leader
came and knelt
before
Him .
“
My daughter has
just
died,”
he
said.
“
But come and place
Your
hand on
her, and she will
live. ”
While he
spake
these things unto
them
, behold,
there
came a
ruler,
and worshipped
him ,
saying,
My daughter is
even
now
dead:
but come and lay
thy
hand upon
her, and she shall
live.
So
Jesus got
up
and went
with
him, along
with
His disciples.
And
Jesus arose,
and followed
him, and
`so
did'
his disciples.
Suddenly
a woman who had suffered
from
bleeding
for
twelve years came up
behind Him and touched the fringe
of His cloak.
And
behold,
a woman ,
who had an
issue
of
blood
twelve years ,
came behind him ,
and touched the border
of his garment:
She said to
herself, “
If only
I touch His cloak
, I will
be healed
. ”
for
she said within
herself, If I do
but
touch his garment
, I shall
be made
whole
.
Jesus turned
and saw
her .
“Take
courage
, daughter, ”
He
said,
“your
faith has
healed
you
. ”
And the woman was cured
from that very
hour.
But
Jesus turning
and seeing
her said
, Daughter, be
of
good
cheer;
thy
faith hath
made
thee
whole
. And the woman was made
whole
from that hour.
When Jesus entered
the house of
the
synagogue
leader
, He
saw the flute players and the noisy
crowd .
And
when Jesus came
into
the ruler's
house, and
saw the flute -
players ,
and the crowd making
a
tumult,
“Go
away,”
He told
them.
“
The girl
is not dead, but asleep
. ”
And they laughed at
Him.
he said,
Give
place:
for
the damsel
is not dead, but sleepeth
. And they laughed him to
scorn
.
After
the crowd had
been
put outside
, Jesus
went
in and took the
girl
by the hand ,
and she
got
up
.
But
when
the crowd was
put forth
, he
entered
in ,
and took her
by the hand ;
and the
damsel
arose
.
And the news
about
this
spread
throughout
that region
.
And the fame
hereof
went
forth
into
all
that land
.
As Jesus went
on
from there
, two blind men followed Him, crying out, “
Have mercy on us, Son of David !”
And
as Jesus passed
by
from thence
, two blind men followed him, crying out, and
saying,
Have mercy on us, thou
son of David .
After
Jesus
had
entered
the house, the blind men came to Him .
“Do
you
believe that I am able to do this? ”
He
asked.
“Yes
, Lord
, ”
they
answered
.
And
when
he
was
come
into
the house, the blind men came to him :
and
Jesus
saith
unto
them,
Believe ye
that I am able to do this? They
say
unto
him
, Yea
, Lord
.
Then He
touched their eyes and
said
, “
According to your faith will
it
be done to
you. ”
Then touched he
their eyes, saying,
According to your faith be it
done unto
you.
And their eyes were opened. Jesus warned
them sternly
, “
See that no one
finds
out
about
this!”
And their eyes were opened. And
Jesus strictly
charged
them, saying,
See that no man
know
it.
But they went out
and spread the
news
about
Him
throughout
the
land.
But they went forth,
and spread abroad
his
fame
in
all
that
land.
As they were
leaving
, a
demon-possessed
man
who
was
mute
was brought to Jesus
.
And
as they went
forth
, behold,
there
was brought to him
a
dumb
man
possessed
with
a
demon
.
And when the demon had
been
driven
out, the man began
to
speak.
The
crowds
were
amazed
and said
, “Nothing
like
this
has
ever
been
seen in Israel !”
And when the demon was
cast
out, the dumb
man spake:
and the
multitudes
marvelled
, saying,
It
was
never
so
seen in Israel .
But the Pharisees said, “It
is
by the prince of demons that
He drives
out demons. ”
But the Pharisees said, By the prince of the
demons casteth
he out demons.
Jesus went through
all the towns
and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every
disease and sickness.
And
Jesus went about
all the cities
and the
villages, teaching in their synagogues, and
preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all
manner
of
disease and all
manner
of
sickness.
When He saw the crowds
, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were harassed
and helpless
, like
sheep without
a shepherd.
But
when he saw the multitudes
, he was moved with compassion for them, because they were distressed
and scattered
, as
sheep not
having
a shepherd.
Then He said
to
His disciples, “
The harvest is plentiful
, but the workers
are few.
Then saith
he unto
his disciples, The harvest indeed
is plenteous
, but the laborers
are few.
Ask
the Lord of the harvest, therefore,
to
send out
workers
into His harvest. ”
Pray
ye
therefore
the Lord of the harvest, that
he
send forth
laborers
into his harvest.
