1 And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him,

2 And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,

3 And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.

4 And when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spake by a parable:

<>much people were gathered together, and were come to him, <>were come to him out of every city, <>he spake by a parable

5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.

<>v. 5, <>A sower went out to sow his seed, <>by the way, <>the fowls of the air devoured it

6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.

<>it withered away, <>it lacked moisture

7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.

<>the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it

8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

<>bare fruit, <>an hundredfold, <>He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

9 And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?

10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.

<>to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand, <>to others in parables

11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.

<>they … hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, <>believe and be saved

13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

<>for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away

14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

<>choked with cares, <>choked with … riches and pleasures of this life, <>bring no fruit to perfection

15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.

<>having heard the word, keep it, <>having heard the word, <>bring forth fruit, <>with patience

16 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.

<>v. 16, <>vessel, <>candlestick

17 For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.

<>v. 17

18 Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.

<>v. 18, <>Take heed therefore how ye hear, <>whosoever hath, to him shall be given

19 Then came to him his mother and his brethren, and could not come at him for the press.

20 And it was told him by certain which said, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee.

<>desiring to see thee

21 And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.

<>answered, <>My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it., <>hear the word of God, and do it

22 Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a ship with his disciples: and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth.

23 But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy.

24 And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.

<>Master, <>we perish, <>he … rebuked … the raging of the water

25 And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.

<>Where is your faith?, <>manner of man

26 And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee.

<>the country, <>over against

27 And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs.

<>vv. 27-28, <>had devils long time, and ware no clothes, <>devils … in the tombs, <>ware no clothes

28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God most high? I beseech thee, torment me not.

<>vv. 27-28, <>he cried out … Jesus, thou Son of God most high, <>God most high, <>torment me not

29 (For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters; and he brake the bands, and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.)

<>he had commanded, <>he was kept bound with chains … and was driven of the devil into the wilderness, <>was kept bound, <>he brake the bands, <>driven of the devil into the wilderness

30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.

31 And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the deep.

<>v. 31

32 And there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them. And he suffered them.

<>swine feeding on the mountain, <>swine, <>suffer … suffered

33 Then went the devils out of the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked.

<>the devils … entered into the swine

34 When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country.

35 Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.

<>came to Jesus, <>sitting at the feet of Jesus

36 They also which saw it told them by what means he that was possessed of the devils was healed.

37 Then the whole multitude of the country of the Gadarenes round about besought him to depart from them; for they were taken with great fear: and he went up into the ship, and returned back again.

38 Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying,

<>vv. 38-39

39 Return to thine own house, and shew how great things God hath done unto thee. And he went his way, and published throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done unto him.

<>vv. 38-39, <>thine own house … the whole city, <>house, <>shew, <>great things God hath done … great things Jesus had done, <>published throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done

40 And it came to pass, that, when Jesus was returned, the people gladly received him: for they were all waiting for him.

<>waiting for him

41 And, behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and he fell down at Jesus' feet, and besought him that he would come into his house:

<>ruler, <>fell down at Jesus' feet, <>besought him that he would come into his house

42 For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But as he went the people thronged him.

<>daughter, <>dying

43 And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any,

<>vv. 43-44, <>issue, <>had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any

44 Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched.

<>vv. 43-44, <>garment

45 And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and press thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

46 And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.

<>virtue

47 And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.

<>she was not hid, <>trembling

48 And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.

<>he said … be of good comfort, <>thy faith hath made thee whole, <>go in peace, <>peace

49 While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master.

<>is dead

50 But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.

<>Fear not, <>believe only

51 And when he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden.

52 And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.

<>she … sleepeth, <>is not dead, but sleepeth

53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.

<>scorn, <>was dead

54 And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise.

55 And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat.

<>her spirit came again, <>straightway, <>he commanded to give her meat, <>meat

56 And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.

<>he charged them that they should tell no man, <>he charged them

1 Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.

<>he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power, <>gave them power, <>diseases

2 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

<>preach the kingdom of God, <>the kingdom of God, <>sick

3 And he said unto them, Take nothing for your journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece.

<>Take nothing for your journey, <>bread, <>neither have two coats apiece

4 And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart.

5 And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.

<>city, <>shake off the very dust from your feet

6 And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.

<>went through the towns, preaching the gospel, <>the gospel

7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he was perplexed, because that it was said of some, that John was risen from the dead;

<>vv. 7-8, <>was perplexed, <>risen from the dead, <>dead

8 And of some, that Elias had appeared; and of others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.

<>vv. 7-8, <>Elias

9 And Herod said, John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him.

10 And the apostles, when they were returned, told him all that they had done. And he took them, and went aside privately into a desert place belonging to the city called Bethsaida.

<>apostles

11 And the people, when they knew it, followed him: and he received them, and spake unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had need of healing.

<>followed him, <>he received them

12 And when the day began to wear away, then came the twelve, and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and country round about, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a desert place.

<>the day began to wear away, <>and lodge, <>victuals

13 But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more but five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy meat for all this people.

<>Give ye them to eat., <>meat

14 For they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company.

15 And they did so, and made them all sit down.

16 Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude.

<>took the five loaves and … blessed them, and brake, and gave, <>gave to the disciples to set before the multitude

17 And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up of fragments that remained to them twelve baskets.

<>they did eat, and were all filled

18 And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I am?

<>vv. 18-20, <>he was alone praying

19 They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others say, that one of the old prophets is risen again.

<>vv. 18-20

20 He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of God.

<>vv. 18-20, <>whom say ye that I am?

21 And he straitly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that thing;

<>he … commanded them to tell no man that thing, <>straitly, <>charged

22 Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day.

<>The Son of man must suffer, <>chief, <>priests, <>scribes, <>be raised the third day

23 And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

<>take up his cross daily, <>take up his cross, <>follow me

24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.

<>For whosoever will save his life shall lose it

25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?

<>For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, <>gain, <>be cast away

26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.

<>ashamed … of my words, <>the holy angels

27 But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

<>there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God, <>death

28 And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.

<>vv. 28-29

29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering.

<>vv. 28-29

30 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias:

<>Moses

31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.

<>his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem, <>his decease which he should accomplish

32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.

<>Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep

33 And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.

<>Master, <>tabernacles

34 While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.

35 And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

<>This is my beloved Son: hear him., <>my beloved Son

36 And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen.

<>Jesus was found alone., <>close

37 And it came to pass, that on the next day, when they were come down from the hill, much people met him.

38 And, behold, a man of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son: for he is mine only child.

<>son

39 And, lo, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth again, and bruising him hardly departeth from him.

<>a spirit … bruising him

40 And I besought thy disciples to cast him out; and they could not.

41 And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son hither.

<>perverse, <>how long shall I … suffer you?, <>suffer

42 And as he was yet a coming, the devil threw him down, and tare him. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him again to his father.

<>Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, <>child

43 And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,

<>the mighty power of God

44 Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.

<>Let these sayings sink down into your ears, <>into the hands

45 But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.

<>understood not this saying

46 Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.

<>there arose a reasoning among them

47 And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by him,

<>Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart

48 And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.

<>Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me, <>whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me, <>him that sent me

49 And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us.

<>answered

50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against us is for us.

<>he that is not against us is for us

51 And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,

<>that he should be received up, <>he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem

52 And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.

<>vv. 52-53, <>make ready

53 And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem.

<>vv. 52-53, <>did not receive him

54 And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?

55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.

56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.

<>the Son of man is … come … to save

57 And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.

<>in the way

58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.

<>bury my father

60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.

61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.

<>farewell

62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

<>No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God., <>plough
