King James Version
Jesus
got
into a boat
, crossed
over, and came to
His own town
.
And
he
entered
into a ship
, and
passed
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 be
forgiven thee
.
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
whether
is easier ,
to say, Thy
sins be
forgiven thee;
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
power
on earth to forgive sins ,
(
then saith
he to the sick
of
the
palsy
, )
Arise
, take
up thy
bed
, and go unto
thine
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 marvelled,
and glorified God, which
had given such power
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
forth
from thence
, he saw a man ,
named Matthew ,
sitting at the receipt
of
custom:
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 Jesus sat
at meat
in
the
house, behold,
many publicans
and sinners came and sat
down
with him 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 Master
with publicans
and sinners?
On
hearing
this,
Jesus said, “It
is
not
the
healthy
who
need a doctor
, but the
sick.
But
when
Jesus heard
that,
he
said unto
them
, They
that
be
whole
need not
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 that
meaneth,
I will
have
mercy, and
not sacrifice :
for I am
not come to call the righteous, but sinners to
repentance
.
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
came 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 children
of the bridechamber
mourn ,
as
long
as
the
bridegroom
is with them? but the days
will come ,
when the bridegroom shall
be taken from them ,
and
then shall
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
.
No man
putteth
a piece
of new
cloth unto
an old garment ,
for that
which
is
put
in
to
fill
it
up
taketh
from the garment, and the
rent
is
made
worse.
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 bottles:
else
the bottles
break
, and
the wine runneth
out
, and the bottles
perish:
but
they put
new wine into new bottles
, 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
certain
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 ,
which
was
diseased
with
an
issue
of
blood
twelve years ,
came behind him ,
and touched the hem
of his garment:
She said to
herself, “
If only
I touch His cloak
, I will
be healed
. ”
For
she said within
herself, If I may
but
touch his garment
, I shall
be 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 turned him
about,
and when
he
saw her, he said, Daughter,
be
of
good
comfort;
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 minstrels
and the people
making
a
noise,
“Go
away,”
He told
them .
“
The girl
is not dead, but asleep
. ”
And they laughed at
Him.
He said
unto
them ,
Give
place:
for
the maid
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 people
were
put forth
, he
went in ,
and took her
by the hand, and the
maid
arose
.
And the news
about
this
spread
throughout
that region
.
And the fame
hereof
went
abroad
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
when
Jesus departed
thence
, two blind men followed him, crying, and
saying
, Thou
son of David ,
have
mercy
on
us.
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
said
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
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 straitly
charged
them, saying,
See that no man
know
it.
But they went
out
and
spread the
news
about
Him
throughout
the
land
.
But they ,
when
they
were
departed,
spread abroad
his
fame
in
all
that
country
.
As they were
leaving
, a
demon-possessed
man
who
was
mute
was
brought to Jesus
.
As they went
out
, behold,
they
brought to him
a
dumb
man
possessed
with
a
devil
.
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 devil
was
cast
out, the dumb
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, He
casteth
out
devils
through
the prince of the
devils
.
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 villages, teaching in their synagogues, and
preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and
every
disease
among
the
people
.
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 on
them, because they fainted,
and were
scattered
abroad
, as
sheep having
no
shepherd.
Then He said
to
His disciples, “
The harvest is plentiful
, but the workers
are few .
Then saith
he unto
his disciples, The harvest truly
is plenteous
, but the labourers
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
will
send forth
labourers
into his harvest.
