1 John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and God is the [2,3] Word. John 1:2 This was in the beginning with God. John 1:3 Everything was by his hand, and 4 without him not even one existing thing was made. John 1:4 In him was life, and the life 5 is the light of men. John 1:5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness apprehended it not.

6 Luke 1:5 There was in the days of Herod the king a priest whose name was Zacharias, of the family of Abijah; and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name 7 was Elizabeth. Luke 1:6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all his commands, 8 and in the uprightness of God without reproach. Luke 1:7 And they had no son, for 9 Elizabeth was barren, and they had both advanced in age. Luke 1:8 And while he discharged 10 [Arabic, p. 2] the duties of priest in the order of his service before God, Luke 1:9 according to the custom of the priesthood it was his turn to burn incense; so he entered the 11 temple of the Lord. Luke 1:10 And the whole gathering of the people were praying without at the 12 time of the incense. Luke 1:11 And there appeared unto Zacharias the angel of the Lord, standing 13 at the right of the altar of incense; Luke 1:12 and Zacharias was troubled when he saw him, 14 and fear fell upon him. Luke 1:13 But the angel said unto him, Be not agitated, Zacharias, for your prayer is heard, and your wife Elizabeth shall bear you a son, and you shall 15 call his name John; Luke 1:14 and you shall have joy and gladness, and many shall rejoice 16 at his birth. Luke 1:15 And he shall be great before the Lord, and shall not drink wine nor strong drink, and he shall be filled with the Holy Spirit while he is in his mother's 17 womb. Luke 1:16 And he shall turn back many of the children of Israel to the Lord their 18 God. Luke 1:17 And he shall go before him in the spirit, and in the power of Elijah the prophet, to turn back the heart of the fathers to the sons, and those that obey not to the knowledge of the righteous; and to prepare for the Lord a perfect people. 19 Luke 1:18 And Zacharias said unto the angel, How shall I know this, since I am an old man 20 and my wife is advanced in years? Luke 1:19 And the angel answered and said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stands before God; and I was sent to speak unto you, and give 21 you tidings of this. Luke 1:20 Henceforth you shall be speechless, and shall not be able to speak until the day in which this shall come to pass, because you did not trust 22 this my word, which shall be accomplished in its time. Luke 1:21 And the people were standing [Arabic, p. 3] awaiting Zacharias, and they were perplexed at his delaying in the temple. 23 Luke 1:22 And when Zacharias went out, he was not able to speak unto them: so they knew that he had seen in the temple a vision; and he made signs unto them, and 24 continued dumb. Luke 1:23 And when the days of his service were completed, he departed to his dwelling.

25 Luke 1:24 And after those days Elizabeth his wife conceived; and she hid herself five 26 months, and said, Luke 1:25 This has the Lord done unto me in the days when he looked upon me, to remove my reproach from among men.

27 Luke 1:26 And in the sixth month Gabriel the angel was sent from God to Galilee to a 28 city called Nazareth, Luke 1:27 to a virgin given in marriage to a man named Joseph, of the 29 house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. Luke 1:28 And the angel entered unto her and said unto her, Peace be unto you, you who are filled with grace. Our Lord 30 is with you, you blessed among women. Luke 1:29 And she, when she beheld, was agitated 31 at his word, and pondered what this salutation could be. Luke 1:30 And the angel said unto 32 her, Fear not, Mary, for you have found favour with God. Luke 1:31 You shall now conceive, 33 and bear a son, and call his name Jesus. Luke 1:32 This shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give him the throne of 34 David his father: and he shall rule over the house of Jacob for ever; Luke 1:33 and to his 35 kingdom there shall be no end. Luke 1:34 Mary said unto the angel, How shall this be to 36 me when no man has known me? Luke 1:35 The angel answered and said unto her, The [Arabic, p. 4] Holy Spirit will come, and the power of the Most High shall rest upon you, and therefore shall he that is born of you be pure, and shall be called the Son 37 of God. Luke 1:36 And lo, Elizabeth your kinswoman, she also has conceived a son in her old 38 age; and this is the sixth month with her, her that is called barren. Luke 1:37 For nothing is 39 difficult for God. Luke 1:38 Mary said, Lo, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be unto me according unto your word. And the angel departed from her.

40 Luke 1:39 And then Mary arose in those days and went in haste into the hill country, to a 41 city of Judah; Luke 1:40 and entered into the house of Zacharias, and asked for the health of 42 Elizabeth. Luke 1:41 And when Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in 43 her womb. Luke 1:42 And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit; and cried with a loud voice and said unto Mary, Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the 44 fruit that is in your womb. Luke 1:43 Whence have I this privilege, that the mother of my 45 Lord should come unto me? Luke 1:44 When the sound of your salutation reached my ears, 46 with great joy rejoiced the babe in my womb. Luke 1:45 And blessed is she who believed 47 that what was spoken to her from the Lord would be fulfilled. Luke 1:46 And Mary said,

My soul does magnify the Lord,
48 Luke 1:47 And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Saviour,
49 Luke 1:48 Who has looked upon the low estate of his handmaiden:
Lo, henceforth, all generations shall pronounce blessing on me.
50 Luke 1:49 For he has done great things for me, who is mighty,
And holy is his name.
51 Luke 1:50 And his mercy embraces them who fear him,
Throughout the ages and the times.
52 [Arabic, p. 5] Luke 1:51 He wrought the victory with his arm,
And scattered them that prided themselves in their opinions.
53 Luke 1:52 He overthrew them that acted haughtily from their thrones,
And raised the lowly.
54 Luke 1:53 He satisfied with good things the hungry,
And left the rich without anything.
55 Luke 1:54 He helped Israel his servant,
And remembered his mercy
56 Luke 1:55 (According as he spoke with our fathers)
Unto Abraham and unto his seed for ever.

57 Luke 1:56 And Mary abode with Elizabeth about three months, and returned unto her house.

58, 59 Luke 1:57 And Elizabeth's time of delivery had come; and she brought forth a son. Luke 1:58 And her neighbours and kinsfolk heard that God had multiplied his mercy towards her; 60 and they rejoiced with her. Luke 1:59 And when it was the eighth day, they came to circumcise the child, and called him Zacharias, calling him by the name of his father. 61 Luke 1:60 And his mother answered and said unto them, Not so; but he shall be called John. 62 Luke 1:61 And they said unto her, There is no man of your kindred that is called by this name. 63, 64 Luke 1:62 And they made signs to his father, saying, How do you wish to name him? Luke 1:63 And he asked for a tablet, and wrote and said, His name is John. And every one wondered. 65 Luke 1:64 And immediately his mouth was opened, and his tongue, and he spoke and 66 praised God. Luke 1:65 And fear fell on all their neighbours: and this was spoken of in all 67 the mountains of Judah. Luke 1:66 And all who heard pondered in their hearts and said, What shall this child be? And the hand of the Lord was with him.

68 Luke 1:67 And Zacharias his father was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied and said,

69 Luke 1:68 Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel,
Who has cared for his people, and wrought for it salvation;
70 Luke 1:69 And has raised for us the horn of salvation
[Arabic, p. 6] In the house of David his servant
71 Luke 1:70 (As he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets from eternity),
72 Luke 1:71 That he might save us from our enemies,
And from the hand of all them that hate us.
73 Luke 1:72 And he has performed his mercy towards our fathers,
And remembered his holy covenants,
74 Luke 1:73 And the oath which he swore unto Abraham our father,
75 Luke 1:74 That he would give us deliverance from the hand of our enemies,
And without fear we shall serve before him
76 Luke 1:75 All our days with equity and righteousness.
77 Luke 1:76 And as for you, O child, prophet of the Most High shall you be called.
You shall go forth before the face of the Lord to prepare his way,
78 Luke 1:77 To give the knowledge of salvation unto his people,
For the forgiveness of their sins,
79 Luke 1:78 Through the mercy of the compassion of our God,
With which he cares for us, to appear from on high
80 Luke 1:79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and under the shadow of death,
And to set straight our feet in the way of peace.

81 And the child grew and became strong in the spirit, and abode in the desert until the time of his appearing unto the children of Israel.

1 [Arabic, p. 7] Matthew 1:18 Now the birth of Jesus the Messiah was on this wise: In the time when his mother was given in marriage to Joseph, before they came together, 2 she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. Matthew 1:19 And Joseph her husband was a just man and did not wish to expose her, and he purposed to put her away secretly. 3 Matthew 1:20 But when he thought of this, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, and said unto him, Joseph, son of David, fear not to take Mary your wife, for that 4 which is begotten in her is of the Holy Spirit. Matthew 1:21 She shall bear a son, and you shall 5 call his name Jesus, and he shall save his people from their sins. Matthew 1:22 And all this was that the saying from the Lord by the prophet might be fulfilled:

6 Matthew 1:23 Behold, the virgin shall conceive, and bear a son,
And they shall call his name Immanuel,

7 which is, being interpreted, With us is our God. Matthew 1:24 And when Joseph arose from his 8 sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife; Matthew 1:25a and knew her not until she brought forth her firstborn son.

9 Luke 2:1 And in those days there went forth a decree from Augustus Cæsar that all the 10 people of his dominion should be enrolled. Luke 2:2 This first enrolment was while Quirinius 11, 12 was governor of Syria. Luke 2:3 And every man went to be enrolled in his city. Luke 2:4 And Joseph went up also from Nazareth, a city of Galilee, to Judæa, to the city of David 13 which is called Bethlehem (for he was of the house of David and of his tribe), Luke 2:5 with 14 [Arabic, p. 8] Mary his betrothed, she being with child, to be enrolled there. Luke 2:6 And while 15 she was there the days for her being delivered were accomplished. And she brought forth her firstborn son; and she wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them where they were staying.

16 And there were in that region shepherds abiding, keeping their flock in the watch 17 of the night. Luke 2:9 And behold, the angel of God came unto them, and the glory of the 18 Lord shone upon them; and they were greatly terrified. Luke 2:10 And the angel said unto them, Be not terrified; for I bring you tidings of great joy which shall be to the 19 whole world; Luke 2:11 there is born to you this day a Saviour, which is the Lord the Messiah, 20 in the city of David. Luke 2:12 And this is a sign for you: you shall find a babe wrapped 21 in swaddling cloths and laid in a manger. Luke 2:13 And there appeared with the angels suddenly many heavenly forces praising God and saying,

22 Luke 2:14 Praise be to God in the highest,
And on the earth peace, and good hope to men.

23 Luke 2:15 And when the angels departed from them to heaven, the shepherds spoke to one another and said, We will go to Bethlehem and see this word which has been, as 24 the Lord made known unto us. Luke 2:16 And they came with haste, and found Mary and 25 Joseph, and the babe laid in a manger. Luke 2:17 And when they saw, they reported the word 26 which was spoken to them about the child. Luke 2:18 And all that heard wondered at the 27 description which the shepherds described to them. Luke 2:19 But Mary kept these sayings 28 and discriminated them in her heart. Luke 2:20 And those shepherds returned, magnifying and praising God for all that they had seen and heard, according as it was described unto them.

29 [Arabic, p. 9] Luke 2:21 And when eight days were fulfilled that the child should be circumcised, his name was called Jesus, being that by which he was called by the angel before his conception in the womb.

30 Luke 2:22 And when the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were 31 completed, they took him up to Jerusalem to present him before the Lord Luke 2:23 (as it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male opening the womb shall be called the 32 holy thing of the Lord), Luke 2:24 and to give a sacrificial victim as it is said in the law of 33 the Lord, A pair of doves or two young pigeons. Luke 2:25 And there was in Jerusalem a man whose name was Simeon; and this man was upright and pious, and expecting 34 the consolation of Israel; and the Holy Spirit was upon him. Luke 2:26 And it had been said unto him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death till he had seen with 35 his eyes the Messiah of the Lord. Luke 2:27 And this man came by the Spirit to the temple; and at the time when his parents brought in the child Jesus, that they might 36 present for him a sacrifice, as it is written in the law, Luke 2:28 he bare him in his arms and praised God and said,

37 Luke 2:29 Now loosen the bonds of your servant, O Lord, in peace,
According to your saying;
38 Luke 2:30 For my eye has witnessed your mercy,
39 Luke 2:31 Which you have made ready because of the whole world;
40 Luke 2:32 A light for the unveiling of the nations,
And a glory to your people Israel.

41 Luke 2:33 And Joseph and his mother were marvelling at the things which were being said 42 concerning him. Luke 2:34 And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, Behold, he is set for the overthrow and rising of many in Israel; and for a sign of contention; 43 Luke 2:35 and a spear shall pierce through your own soul; that the thoughts of the 44 [Arabic, p. 10] hearts of many may be revealed. Luke 2:36 And Anna the prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher, was also advanced in years (and she dwelt 45 with her husband seven years from her virginity, Luke 2:37 and she remained a widow about eighty-four years); and she left not the temple, and served night and day with 46 fasting and prayer. Luke 2:38 And she also rose in that hour and thanked the Lord, and she 47 spoke of him with every one who was expecting the deliverance of Jerusalem. Luke 2:39 And when they had accomplished everything according to what is in the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to Nazareth their city.

1, 2 Matthew 2:1b And after that, the Magi came from the east to Jerusalem, Matthew 2:2 and said, Where is the King of the Jews which was born? We have seen his star in the east, and have 3 come to worship him. Matthew 2:3 And Herod the king heard, and he was troubled, and all 4 Jerusalem with him. Matthew 2:4 And he gathered all the chief priests and the scribes of the 5 people, and asked them in what place the Messiah should be born. Matthew 2:5 They said, In Bethlehem of Judæa: thus it is written in the prophet,

6 Matthew 2:6 You also, Bethlehem of Judah,
Are not contemptible among the kings of Judah:
From you shall go forth a king,
And he shall be a shepherd to my people Israel.

7 Matthew 2:7 Then Herod called the Magi secretly, and inquired of them the time at which 8 the star appeared to them. Matthew 2:8 And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said unto them, Go and search about the child diligently; and when you have found him, come and 9 make known to me, that I also may go and worship him. Matthew 2:9 And they, when they [Arabic, p. 11] heard the king, departed; and lo, the star which they had seen in the east went before them, until it came and stood above the place where the child 10, 11 was. Matthew 2:10 And when they beheld the star, they rejoiced with very great joy. Matthew 2:11 And they entered the house and beheld the child with Mary his mother, and fell down worshipping him, and opened their saddle-bags and offered to him offerings, gold and 12 myrrh and frankincense. Matthew 2:12 And they saw in a dream that they should not return to Herod, and they travelled by another way in going to their country.

13 Matthew 2:13 And when they had departed, the angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph, and said unto him, Rise, take the child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and stay there until I speak to you; for Herod is determined to seek the child 14 to slay him. Matthew 2:14 And Joseph arose and took the child and his mother in the night, and 15 fled into Egypt, Matthew 2:15 and remained in it until the time of the death of Herod: that that might be fulfilled which was said by the Lord in the prophet, which said, From 16 Egypt did I call my son. Matthew 2:16 And Herod then, when he saw that he was mocked of the Magi, was very angry, and sent and killed all the male children which were in Bethlehem and all its borders, from two years old and under, according to the time 17 which he had inquired from the Magi. Matthew 2:17 Then was fulfilled the saying in Jeremiah the prophet, which said,

18 Matthew 2:18 A voice was heard in Ramah,
Weeping and much lamentation;
Rachel weeping for her children,
And not willing to be consoled for their loss.

19 Matthew 2:19 But when Herod the king died, the angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to 20 Joseph in Egypt, Matthew 2:20 and said unto him, Rise and take the child and his mother, and [Arabic, p. 12] go into the land of Israel; for they have died who sought the child's life. 21 Matthew 2:21 And Joseph rose and took the child and his mother, and came to the land 22 of Israel. Matthew 2:22 But when he heard that Archelaus had become king over Judæa instead of Herod his father, he feared to go there; and he saw in a dream that he should 23 go into the land of Galilee, Matthew 2:23 and that he should abide in a city called Nazareth: that the saying in the prophet might be fulfilled, that he should be called a Nazarene.

24 Luke 2:40 And the child grew, and became strong in spirit, becoming filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon him.

25 Luke 2:41 And his kinsfolk used to go every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover. 26 Luke 2:42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up according to their custom, 27 to the feast. Luke 2:43 And when the days were accomplished, they returned; and the child 28 Jesus remained in Jerusalem, and Joseph and his mother knew not: Luke 2:44 and they supposed that he was with the children of their company. And when they had gone one day's journey, they sought him beside their people and those who knew them, 29 and they found him not; Luke 2:45 so they returned to Jerusalem and sought him again. 30 Luke 2:46 And after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, 31 hearing them and asking them questions; Luke 2:47 and all who heard him wondered at 32 his wisdom and his words. Luke 2:48 And when they saw him they wondered, and his mother said unto him, My son, why have you dealt with us thus? Behold, I and your father 33 have been seeking for you with much anxiety. Luke 2:49 And he said unto them, Why were 34 ye seeking me? know ye not that I must be in the house of my Father? Luke 2:50 And they 35 understood not the word which he spoke unto them. Luke 2:51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth; and he was obedient to them: and his mother used to keep all these sayings in her heart.

36 [Arabic, p. 13] Luke 2:52 And Jesus grew in his stature and wisdom, and in grace with God and men.

37 Luke 3:1 And in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Cæsar, when Pontius Pilate was governor in Judæa, and one of the four rulers, Herod, in Galilee; and Philip his brother, one of the four rulers, in Ituræa and in the district of Trachonitis; and 38 Lysanias, one of the four rulers, in Abilene; Luke 3:2 in the chief-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the command of God went forth to John the son of Zacharias in the 39 desert. Luke 3:3 And he came into all the region which is about Jordan, proclaiming the 40 baptism of repentance unto the forgiveness of sins. Matthew 3:1b And he was preaching in the 41 wilderness of Judæa, and saying, Matthew 3:2 Repent ye; the kingdom of heaven has come near. 42 Matthew 3:3a This is he that was spoken of in Isaiah the prophet,

The voice which cries in the desert,
43 Luke 3:4b Prepare ye the way of the Lord,
And make straight in the plain, paths for our God.
44 Luke 3:5 All the valleys shall become filled,
And all the mountains and hills shall become low;
And the rough shall become plain, And the difficult place, easy;

45 Luke 3:6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.

46 John 1:7 This man came to bear witness, that he might bear witness to the light, that 47 every man might believe through his mediation. John 1:8 He was not the light, but that he 48 might bear witness to the light, John 1:9 which was the light of truth, that gives light to 49 every man coming into the world. John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made 50 by him, and the world knew 51 him not. John 1:11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. John 1:12 And those who received him, to them gave he the power that they might 52 be sons of God—those which believe in his name: John 1:13 which were born, not of blood, 53 nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of a man, but of God. John 1:14 And the Word became flesh, and took up his abode among us; and we saw his glory as the glory 54 of the only Son from the Father, which is full of grace and equity. John 1:15 John bore witness [Arabic, p. 14] of him, and cried, and said, This is he that I said comes after me and 55 was before me, because he was before me. John 1:16 And of his fullness received 56 we all grace for grace. John 1:17 For the law was given through the mediation of Moses, but truth and grace were through Jesus Christ.

 

1 John 1:18 No man has seen God at any time; the only Son, God, which is in the bosom of his Father, he has told of him.

2 John 1:19 And this is the witness of John when the Jews sent to him from Jerusalem priests 3 and Levites to ask him, Who are you? John 1:20 And he acknowledged, and denied not; 4 and he confessed that he was not the Messiah. John 1:21 And they asked him again, What then? Are you Elijah? And he said, I am not he. Are you a prophet? He 5 said, No. John 1:22 They said unto him, Then who are you? That we may answer them that 6 sent us. What do you say of yourself? John 1:23 And he said, I am the voice that cries in 7 the desert, Repair ye the way of the Lord, as said Isaiah the prophet. John 1:24 And they 8 that were sent were from the Pharisees. John 1:25 And they asked him and said unto him, Why do you baptize now, when you are not the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor a prophet? 9 John 1:26 John answered and said unto them, I baptize with water: among you is standing 10 one whom you know not: John 1:27 this is he who I said comes after me and was before 11 me, the latchets of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose. John 1:28 And that was in Bethany beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

12 Matthew 3:4 Now John's raiment was camel's hair, and he was girded with skins, and his food 13 [Arabic, p. 15] was of locusts and honey of the wilderness. Matthew 3:5Then went out unto him the people of Jerusalem, and all Judæa, and all the region which is about the 14, 15 Jordan; Matthew 3:6 and they were baptized of him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. Matthew 3:7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to be baptized, he said unto them, You children of vipers, who has led you to flee from the wrath to come? 16, 17 Matthew 3:8 Do now the fruits which are worthy of repentance; Matthew 3:9 and think and say not within yourselves, We have a father, even Abraham; for I say unto you, that God is able to 18 raise up of these stones children unto Abraham. Matthew 3:10 Behold, the axe has been laid at the roots of the trees, and so every tree that bears not good fruit shall be taken and 19 cast into the fire. Luke 3:10 And the multitudes were asking him and saying, What shall we do? 20 Luke 3:11 He answered and said unto them, He that has two tunics shall give to him that 21 has not; and he that has food shall do likewise. Luke 3:12 And the publicans also came 22 to be baptized, and they said unto him, Teacher, what shall we do? Luke 3:13 He said unto 23 them, Seek not more than what you are commanded to seek. Luke 3:14 And the servants of the guard asked him and said, And we also, what shall we do? He said unto them, Do not violence to any man, nor wrong him; and let your allowances satisfy you.

24 And when the people were conjecturing about John, and all of them thinking 25 in their hearts whether he were haply the Messiah, Luke 3:16 John answered and said unto them, I baptize you with water; there comes one after me who is stronger than I, the latchets of whose shoes I am not worthy to loosen; he will baptize you with the 26 Holy Spirit and fire: who takes the fan in his hand to cleanse his threshing-floors, [Arabic, p. 16] and the wheat he gathers into his garners, while the straw he shall burn in fire which can not be put out.

27 Luke 3:18 And other things he taught and preached among the people.

28 Matthew 3:13 Then came Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized of him. 29 Luke 3:23a And Jesus was about thirty years old, and it was supposed that he was the son of 30 Joseph. John 1:29 And John saw Jesus coming unto him, and said, This is the Lamb of 31 God, that takes on itself the burden of the sins of the world! John 1:30 This is he concerning whom I said, There comes after me a man who was before me, because he was 32 before me. John 1:31 And I knew him not; but that he should be made manifest to Israel, 33 for this cause came I to baptize with water. Matthew 3:14 And John was hindering him and 34 saying, I have need of being baptized by you, and do you come to me? Matthew 3:15 Jesus answered him and said, Suffer this now: thus it is our duty to fulfill all righteousness. 35 Then he suffered him. Luke 3:21b And when all the people were baptized, Jesus also 36 was baptized. Matthew 3:16b And immediately he went up out of the water, and heaven opened 37 [Arabic, p. 17] to him, Luke 3:22a and the Holy Spirit descended upon him in the similitude of the 38 body of a dove; Matthew 3:17 and lo, a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved 39 Son, in whom I am well pleased. John 1:32 And John bore witness and said, I beheld the 40 Spirit descend from heaven like a dove; and it abode upon him. John 1:33 But I knew him not; but he that sent me to baptize with water, he said unto me, Upon whomsoever you shall behold the Spirit descending and lighting upon him, the same is he that 41 baptizes with the Holy Spirit. John 1:34 And I have seen and borne witness that this is the Son of God.

42, 43 Luke 4:1a And Jesus returned from the Jordan, filled with the Holy Spirit. Mark 1:12 And immediately the Spirit took him out into the wilderness, to be tried of the devil; Mark 1:13b and he 44 was with the beasts. Matthew 4:2a And he fasted forty days and forty nights. Luke 4:2b And he ate nothing 45 in those days, and at the end of them he hungered. And the tempter came and said unto him, If you are the Son of God, speak, and these stones shall become 46 bread. Matthew 4:4 He answered and said, It is written, Not by bread alone shall man live, but 47 by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God. Matthew 4:5 Then the devil brought 48 him to the holy city, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, Matthew 4:6 and said unto him, If you are the Son of God, cast yourself down: for it is written,

He shall give his angels charge concerning you:
And they shall take you on their arms,
So that your foot shall not stumble against a stone.

49 Matthew 4:7 Jesus said unto him, And it is written also, You shall not tempt the Lord your 50 God. Luke 4:5 And the devil took him up to a high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms 51 [Arabic, p. 18] of the earth, and their glory, in the least time; Luke 4:6 and the devil said unto him, To you will I give all this dominion, and its glory, which is delivered to 52 me that I may give it to whomsoever I will. Luke 4:7 If then you will worship before me, all of it shall be yours.

 

1 Matthew 4:10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Get you hence, Satan: for it is written, You 2 shall worship the Lord your God, and him alone shall you serve. Luke 4:13 And when the 3 devil had completed all his temptations, he departed from him for a season. Matthew 4:11b And behold, the angels drew near and ministered unto him.

4, 5 John 1:35 And next day John was standing, and two of his disciples; John 1:36 and he saw Jesus as 6 he was walking, and said, Behold, the Lamb of God! John 1:37 And his two disciples heard 7 him saying this, and they followed Jesus. John 1:38 And Jesus turned and saw them coming after him, and said unto them, What do you seek? They said unto him, Our master, 8 where are you staying? John 1:39 And he said unto them, Come and see. And they came and saw his place, and abode with him that day: and it was about the tenth hour. 9 John 1:40 One of the two which heard from John, and followed Jesus, was Andrew the 10 brother of Simon. John 1:41a And he saw first Simon his brother, and said unto him, We have 11 found the Messiah. John 1:42a And he brought him unto Jesus. And Jesus looked upon him and said, You are Simon, son of Jonah: you shall be called Cephas.

12 John 1:43 And on the next day Jesus desired to go forth to Galilee, and he found Philip, 13 [Arabic, p. 19] and said unto him, Follow me. John 1:44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, of the city 14 of Andrew and Simon. John 1:45 And Philip found Nathanael, and said unto him, He of whom Moses did write in the law and in the prophets, we have found that 15 he is Jesus the son of Joseph of Nazareth. John 1:46 Nathanael said unto him, Is it possible that there can be any good thing from Nazareth? Philip said unto him, Come and 16 see. John 1:47 And Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and said of him, This is indeed a 17 son of Israel in whom is no guile. John 1:48 And Nathanael said unto him, Whence do you know me? Jesus said unto him, Before Philip called you, while you were under the 18 fig tree, I saw you. John 1:49 Nathanael answered and said unto him, My Master, you are 19 the Son of God; you are the King of Israel. John 1:50 Jesus said unto him, Because I said unto you, I saw you under the fig tree, have you believed? You shall see what is 20 greater than this. John 1:51 And he said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Henceforth you shall see the heavens opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

21 Luke 4:14a And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee.

22 John 2:1 And on the third day there was a feast in Cana, a city of Galilee; and the 23 mother of Jesus was there: John 2:2 and Jesus also and his disciples were invited to the 24 feast. John 2:3 And they lacked wine: and his mother said unto Jesus, They have no wine. 25 John 2:4 And Jesus said unto her, What have I to do with you, woman? Has not mine 26 hour come? John 2:5 And his mother said unto the servants, What he says unto you, do. 27 John 2:6 And there were there six vessels of stone, placed for the Jews' purification, such as 28 [Arabic, p. 20] would contain two or three jars. John 2:7 And Jesus said unto them, Fill the vessels 29 with water. And they filled them to the top. John 2:8 He said unto them, Draw 30 out now, and present to the ruler of the feast. And they did so. John 2:9 And when the ruler of the company tasted that water which had become wine, and knew not whence it was (but the servants knew, because they filled up the water), the ruler of the company called 31 the bridegroom, John 2:10 and said unto him, Every man presents first the good wine, and on intoxication he brings what is poor; but you have kept the good wine until 32 now. John 2:11 And this is the first sign which Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested 33 his glory; and his disciples believed on him. Luke 4:14b And his fame spread in all the country 34 which was around them. Luke 4:15 And he taught in their synagogues, and was glorified 35 by every man. Luke 4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and entered, according to his custom, into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood 36 up to read. Luke 4:17 And he was given the book of Isaiah the prophet. And Jesus opened the book and found the place where it was written,

37 Luke 4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
And for this anointed he me, to preach good tidings to the poor;
And he has sent me to heal the broken-hearted,
And to proclaim forgiveness to the evil-doers, and sight to the blind,
And to bring the broken into forgiveness,
38 Luke 4:19 And to proclaim an acceptable year of the Lord.

39 Luke 4:20 And he rolled up the book and gave it to the servant, and went and sat down: 40 and the eyes of all that were in the synagogue were observing him. Luke 4:21 And he began to say unto them, Today has this scripture been fulfilled which you have heard with 41 your ears. Luke 4:22a And they all bare him witness, and wondered at the words of grace which were proceeding from his mouth.

42 [Arabic, p. 21] Matthew 4:17a And from that time began Jesus to proclaim the gospel of the kingdom 43 of God, and to say, Repent ye, and believe in the gospel. Mark 1:15 The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of heaven has come near.

44 Matthew 4:18 And while he was walking on the shore of the sea of Galilee, he saw two brethren, Simon who was called Cephas, and Andrew his brother, casting their nets into 45 the sea; for they were fishers. Matthew 4:19 And Jesus said unto them, Follow me, and I will 46 make you fishers of men. Matthew 4:20 And they immediately left their nets there and followed 47 him. Matthew 4:21 And when he went on from thence, he saw other two brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the ship with Zebedee their father, mending 48 their nets; and Jesus called them. Matthew 4:22 And they immediately forsook the ship and their father Zebedee, and followed him.

49 Luke 5:1 And when the multitude gathered unto him to hear the word of God, while he 50 was standing on the shore of the sea of Gennesaret, Luke 5:2 he saw two boats standing beside the sea, while the two fishers which had gone out of them were washing their 51 nets. Luke 5:3 And one of them belonged to Simon Cephas. And Jesus went up and sat down in it, and commanded that they should move away a little from the land into 52 the water. And he sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat. Luke 5:4 And when he had left off his speaking, he said unto Simon, Put out into the deep, and cast your 53 net for a draught. Luke 5:5 And Simon answered and said unto him, My Master, we toiled 54 all night and caught nothing; now at your word I will cast the net. Luke 5:6 And when they did this, there were enclosed a great many fishes; and their net was on the 55 point of breaking. Luke 5:7 And they beckoned to their comrades that were in the other boat, to come and help them. And when they came, they filled both boats, so that they were on the point of sinking.

 

1 [Arabic, p. 22] Luke 5:8 But when Simon Cephas saw this he fell before the feet of Jesus, and said unto him, My Lord, I beseech of you to depart from me, for I am 2 a sinful man. Luke 5:9 And amazement took possession of him, and of all who were with him, 3 because of the draught of the fishes which they had taken. Luke 5:10 And thus also were James and John the sons of Zebedee overtaken, who were Simon's partners. And Jesus said 4 unto Simon, Fear not; henceforth you shall be a fisher of men unto life. Luke 5:11 And they brought the boats to the land; and they left everything, and followed him.

5 John 3:22 And after that came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judæa; and he went 6 about there with them, and baptized. John 3:23 And John also was baptizing in Ænon, which is beside Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized. 7, 8 John 3:24 And John was not yet come into prison. John 3:25 And there was an inquiry between 9 one of John's disciples and one of the Jews about purifying. John 3:26 And they came unto John, and said unto him, Our master, he that was with you beyond Jordan, to whom 10 you have borne witness, behold, he also baptizes, and many come to him. John 3:27 John answered and said unto them, A man can receive nothing of himself, except it be 11 given him from heaven. John 3:28 You are they that bear witness unto me that I said, I am 12 not the Messiah, but I am one sent before him. John 3:29 And he that has a bride is a bridegroom: and the friend of the bridegroom is he that stands and listens to him, and rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Lo now, behold, 13, 14 [Arabic, p. 23] my joy becomes complete. John 3:30 And he must increase and I decrease. John 3:31 For he that has come from above is higher than everything; and he that is of the earth, of the earth he is, and of the earth he speaks; and he that came down from heaven is 15 higher than all. John 3:32 And he bears witness of what he has seen and heard: and no man 16 receives his witness. John 3:33 And he that has received his witness has asserted that he is 17 truly God. John 3:34 And he whom God has sent speaks the words of God: God gave 18 not the Spirit by measure. John 3:35 The Father loves the Son, and has put everything in 19 his hands. John 3:36 Whosoever believes in the Son has eternal life; but whosoever obeys not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God comes upon him.

20 John 4:1 And Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that he had received many disciples, 21 and that he was baptizing more than John John 4:2 (not that Jesus was himself baptizing, 22 but his disciples); John 4:3a and so he left Judæa.

23 Luke 3:19 And Herod the governor, because he used to be rebuked by John because of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, and for all the sins which he was committing, 24 added to all that also this, Luke 3:20 that he shut up John in prison.

25 Matthew 4:12 And when Jesus heard that John was delivered up, he went away to Galilee. 26 John 4:46 And he entered again into Cana, where he had made the water wine. And there 27 was at Capernaum a king's servant, whose son was sick. John 4:47 And this man heard that Jesus had come from Judæa to Galilee; and he went to him, and besought of him that he would come down and heal his son; for he had come near unto death. 28, 29 John 4:48 Jesus said unto him, Unless you see signs and wonders, you do not believe. John 4:49 The [Arabic, p. 24] king's servant said unto him, My Lord, come down, that the child die not. 30 John 4:50 Jesus said unto him, Go; for your son is alive. And that man believed the 31 word which Jesus spoke, and went. John 4:51 And when he went down, his servants met him 32 and told him, and said unto him, Your son is alive. John 4:52 And he asked them at what time he recovered. They said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left 33 him. John 4:53 And his father knew that that was at that hour in which Jesus said unto him, 34 Your son is alive. John 4:54 And he believed, he and the whole people of his house. And this 35 is the second sign which Jesus did when he returned from Judæa to Galilee. Luke 4:44 And he was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.

36 Matthew 4:13 And he left Nazareth, and came and dwelt in Capernaum by the sea shore, in the 37 borders of Zebulun and Naphtali: Matthew 4:14 that it might be fulfilled which was said in Isaiah the prophet, who said,

38 Matthew 4:15 The land of Zebulun, the land of Naphtali,
The way of the sea, the passage of the Jordan,
Galilee of the nations:
39 Matthew 4:16 The people sitting in darkness
Saw a great light,
And those sitting in the region and in the shadow of death,
There appeared to them a light.

40 Luke 4:31b And he taught them on the sabbaths. Luke 4:32 And they wondered because of his doctrine: 41 for his word was as if it were authoritative. Luke 4:33 And there was in the synagogue 42 a man with an unclean devil, and he cried out with a loud voice, and said, Luke 4:34 Let me alone; what have I to do with you, you Jesus of Nazareth? Are you come for our 43 destruction? I know you who you are, you Holy One of God. Luke 4:35 And Jesus rebuked him, and said, Stop up your mouth, and come out of him. And the demon threw him 44 in the midst and came out of him, having done him no harm. Luke 4:36 And great amazement [Arabic, p. 25] took hold upon every man. And they talked one with another, and said, What is this word that orders the unclean spirits with power and 45 authority, and they come out? Luke 4:37 And the news of him spread abroad in all the region which was around them.

46 Luke 4:38 And when Jesus went out of the synagogue, he saw a man sitting among the publicans, named Matthew: and he said unto him, Come after me. And he rose, and followed him.

47, 48 Mark 1:29b And Jesus came to the house of Simon and Andrew with James and John. Luke 4:38c And Simon's wife's mother was oppressed with a great fever, and they besought him for 49 her. Luke 4:39 And he stood over her and rebuked her fever, and it left her, and immediately 50 she rose and ministered to them. Matthew 8:16a And at even they brought to him many that had 51 demons: and he cast out their devils with the word. Luke 4:40b And all that had sick, their diseases being various and malignant, brought them unto him. And he laid his hand 52 on them one by one and healed them: Matthew 8:17 that that might be fulfilled which was said 53 in the prophet Isaiah, who said, He takes our pains and bears our diseases. Mark 1:33 And 54 all the city was gathered together unto the door of Jesus. Luke 4:41 And he cast out devils also from many, as they were crying out and saying, You are the Messiah, the Son of God; and he rebuked them. And he suffered not the demons to speak, because they knew him that he was the Lord the Messiah.

1 [Arabic, p. 26] Mark 1:35 And in the morning of that day he went out very early, and went to a 2 desert place, and was there praying. Mark 1:36 And Simon and those that were with 3 him sought him. Mark 1:37 And when they found him, they said unto him, All the people seek for 4 you. Mark 1:38 He said unto them, Let us go into the adjacent villages and towns, that I may 5 preach there also; for to this end did I come. Luke 4:42 And the multitudes were seeking him, and came till they reached him; and they took hold of him, that he should not 6 go away from them. Luke 4:43 But Jesus said unto them, I must preach of the kingdom of 7 God in other cities also: for because of this gospel was I sent. Matthew 9:35 And Jesus was going about all the cities and the villages, and teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all the diseases and all the sicknesses, 8 Mark 1:39 and casting out the devils. Luke 4:14b And his fame became known Luke 4:15 that he was teaching in 9 every place and being glorified by every man. Mark 2:14 And when he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphæus sitting among the tax-gatherers; and he said unto him, Follow 10 me: and he rose and followed him. Matthew 4:24 And the news of him was heard of in all the land of Syria: and they brought unto him all those whom grievous ills had befallen through various diseases, and those that were enduring torment, and those that were possessed, and lunatics, and paralytics; and he healed them.

11, 12 Mark 2:1 And after some days Jesus entered into Capernaum again. Mark 2:2 And when they heard that he was in the house, many gathered, so that it could not hold them, even about 13 [Arabic, p. 27] the door; and he made known to them the word of God. Luke 5:17b And there were there some of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, sitting, come from all the villages of Galilee, and Judæa, and Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was 14 present to heal them. Luke 5:18 And some men brought a bed with a man on it who was paralytic. 15 And they sought to bring him in and lay him before him. Luke 5:19 And when they found no way to bring him in because of the multitude of people, they went up to the roof, and let him down with his bed from the roofing, into the midst before Jesus. 16 Luke 5:20 And when Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the paralytic, My son, your sins are forgiven 17 you. Luke 5:21 And the scribes and Pharisees began to think within their hearts, Why does this man blaspheme? Who is it that is able to forgive sins, but God alone? 18 Mark 2:8 And Jesus knew by the spirit that they were thinking this within themselves, and he 19 said unto them, Why do ye think this within your heart? Mark 2:9 Which is better, that it should be said to the paralytic, Your sins are forgiven you, or that it should be said 20 to him, Arise, and take your bed, and walk? Mark 2:10 That ye may know that the Son of man 21 is empowered on earth to forgive sins (and he said to the paralytic), Mark 2:11 I say unto you, 22 Arise, take your bed, and go to your house. Mark 2:12a And he rose immediately, and took his bed, and went out in the presence of all. Luke 5:25b And he went to his house praising God. 23 Matthew 9:8a And when those multitudes saw, they feared; Luke 5:26a and amazement took possession of 24 them, and they praised God, who had given such power to men. Luke 5:26c And they said, We have seen marvellous things today, Mark 2:12c of which we have never before seen the like.

25 [Arabic, p. 28] Luke 5:27 And after that, Jesus went out, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting 26 among the publicans: and he said unto him, Follow me. Luke 5:28 And he left 27 everything, and rose, and followed him. Luke 5:29 And Levi made him a great feast in his house. And there was a great multitude of the publicans and others sitting with him. 28 Luke 5:30 And the scribes and Pharisees murmured, and said unto his disciples, Why do you eat 29 and drink with the publicans and sinners? Luke 5:31 Jesus answered and said unto them, The physician seeks not those who are well, but those that are afflicted with grievous 30, 31 sickness. Luke 5:32 I came not to call the righteous, but the sinners, to repentance. Luke 5:33 And they said unto him, Why do the disciples of John fast always, and pray, and the 32 Pharisees also, but your disciples eat and drink? Luke 5:34 He said unto them, You cannot make 33 the sons of the marriage feast fast, while the bridegroom is with them. Luke 5:35 Days will come, when the bridegroom is taken away from them; then will they fast in those 34 days. Luke 5:36a And he spoke unto them a parable: Mark 2:21 No man inserts a new patch and sews it in a worn garment, lest the newness of the new take from the worn, and 35 there occur a great rent. Mark 2:22 And no man puts fresh wine into old skins, lest the wine burst the skins, and the skins be destroyed, and the wine spilled; but they put 36 the fresh wine in the new skins, and both are preserved. Luke 5:38-39 And no man drinks old wine and straightway desires fresh; for he says, The old is better.

37 Matthew 12:1 And while Jesus was walking on the sabbath day among the sown fields, his disciples [Arabic, p. 29] hungered. And they were rubbing the ears with their hands, and 38 eating. Matthew 12:2a But some of the Pharisees, when they saw them, Mark 2:24 said unto him, See, 39 why do your disciples on the sabbath day that which is not lawful? Mark 2:25 But Jesus said unto them, Have ye not read in olden time what David did, when he had need and 40 hungered, he and those that were with him? Mark 2:26 how he entered the house of God, when Abiathar was high priest, and ate the bread of the table of the Lord, which it was not lawful that any should eat, save the priests, and gave to them that were with him also? 41 Mark 2:27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was created because of man, and man was not 42 created because of the sabbath. Matthew 12:5 Or have ye not read in the law, that the priests in 43 the temple profane the sabbath, and yet they are blameless? Matthew 12:6 I say unto you now, 44 that here is what is greater than the temple. Matthew 12:7 If you had known this: I love mercy, 45 not sacrifice, you would not have condemned those on whom is no blame. Matthew 12:8 The 46 Lord of the sabbath is the Son of man. Mark 3:21 And his relatives heard, and went out to take him, and said, He has gone out of his mind.

47 Luke 6:6 And on the next sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and was teaching. 48 Luke 6:7 And there was there a man whose right hand was withered. And the scribes and the Pharisees were watching him, whether he would heal on the sabbath day, 49 that they might find the means of accusing him. Luke 6:8 But he knew their thoughts, and said unto the man whose hand was withered, Rise and come near into the midst of 50 the synagogue. Luke 6:9 And when he came and stood, Jesus said unto them, I ask you, which is lawful to be done on the sabbath day, good or evil? Shall lives be saved or 51 [Arabic, p. 30] destroyed? Mark 3:4b But they were silent. Mark 3:5 Regarding them with anger, being grieved because of the hardness of their hearts. And he said unto the man, Stretch out your hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand became straight. 52 Matthew 12:11 Then he said unto them, What man of you shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a 53 well on the sabbath day, will not take it and lift it out? Matthew 12:12 And how much is man better than a sheep! Wherefore it is lawful on the sabbath to do good.

 

1 Matthew 12:14 And the Pharisees went out, and consulted together concerning him, that they 2 might destroy him. Matthew 12:15 And Jesus perceived, and removed thence: and great multitudes 3 followed him; and he healed all of them: Matthew 12:16 and he forbade them that they should 4 not make him known: Matthew 12:17 that the saying in Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which said,

5 Matthew 12:18 Behold, my servant with whom I am pleased;
My beloved in whom my soul has delighted:
My spirit have I put upon him,
And he shall proclaim to the nations judgement.
6 Matthew 12:19 He shall not dispute, nor cry out;
And no man shall hear his voice in the marketplace.
7 Matthew 12:20 And a bruised reed shall he not break,
And a smoking lamp shall he not extinguish,

8 Matthew 12:21 And the nations shall rejoice in his name.

9 Luke 6:12 And in those days Jesus went out to the mountain that he might pray, and he 10 spent the night there in prayer to God. Luke 6:13a And when the morning had come, he called the disciples. Mark 3:7 And he went towards the sea: and there followed him much people 11 from Galilee that he might pray, Mark 3:8 and from Judæa, and from Jerusalem, and from Idumæa, and from beyond Jordan, and from Tyre, and from Sidon, and from Decapolis; 12 and great multitudes came unto him, which had heard what he did. Mark 3:9 And he spoke to his disciples to bring him the boat because of the multitudes, that they 13 might not throng him. Mark 3:10 And he healed many, so that they were almost falling on [Arabic, p. 31] him on account of their seeking to get near him. And those that had 14 plagues and unclean spirits, Mark 3:11 as soon as they beheld him, would fall, and 15 cry out, and say, You are the Son of God. Mark 3:12 And he rebuked them much, that they 16 should not make him known. Luke 6:18 And those that were under the constraint of unclean 17 spirits were healed. Luke 6:19 And all of the crowd were seeking to come near him; because power went out from him, and he healed them all.

18, 19 Matthew 5:1a And when Jesus saw the multitudes, he went up to the mountain. Luke 6:13b And he called his disciples, and chose from them twelve; and they are those whom he named 20 apostles: Luke 6:14 Simon, whom he named Cephas, and Andrew his brother, and James and 21 John, and Philip and Bartholomew, Luke 6:15 and Matthew and Thomas, and James the son 22 of Alphæus, and Simon which was called the Zealot, Luke 6:16 and Judas the son of James, 23 and Judas the Iscariot, being he that had betrayed him. Luke 6:17a And Jesus went down with them and stood in the plain, and the company of his disciples, and the great 24 multitude of people. Mark 3:14 And these twelve he chose to be with him, and that he might 25 send them to preach, and to have power to heal the sick and to cast out devils.

26 Luke 6:20 Then he lifted up his eyes unto them, and opened his mouth, Matthew 5:2 and taught them, and said,

27 Matthew 5:3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for the kingdom of heaven is theirs.

28 Matthew 5:4 Blessed are the sorrowful: for they shall be comforted.

29 Matthew 5:5 Blessed are the humble: for they shall inherit the earth.

30 Matthew 5:6 Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be satisfied.

31 Matthew 5:7 Blessed are the merciful: for on them shall be mercy.

32 [Arabic, p. 32] Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the pure in their hearts: for they shall see God.

33 Matthew 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the sons of God.

34 Matthew 5:10 Blessed are they that were persecuted for righteousness' sake: for the kingdom of heaven is theirs.

35 Luke 6:22a Blessed are you when men shall hate you, and separate you from them, and persecute you, and reproach you, Matthew 5:11b and shall speak against you with all evil talk, for my 36 sake, falsely. Matthew 5:12 Then rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets before you.

37 Luke 6:24 But woe unto you rich! For you have received your consolation.

38 Luke 6:25 Woe unto you that are satisfied! You shall hunger.

Woe unto you that laugh now! You shall weep and be sad.

39 Luke 5:26 Woe unto you when men praise you! For so did their fathers use to do to the false prophets.

40 Luke 6:27 Unto you do I say, you who hear, Matthew 5:13 You are the salt of the earth: if then the salt become tasteless, wherewith shall it be salted? For any purpose it is of no use, but 41 is thrown outside, and men tread upon it. Matthew 5:14 You are the light of the world. It is 42 impossible that a city built on a mountain should be hid. Matthew 5:15 Neither do they light a lamp and place it under a bushel, but on the lamp-stand, and it gives light to all 43 who are in the house. Matthew 5:16 So shall your light shine before men, that they may see 44 your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Mark 4:22 There is nothing 45 secret that shall not be revealed, or hidden that shall not be known. Mark 4:23 Whoever has ears that hear, let him hear.

46 Matthew 5:17 Think not that I came to destroy the law or the prophets; I came not to destroy, 47 but to complete. Matthew 5:18 Verily I say unto you, Until heaven and earth shall pass, there [Arabic, p. 33] shall not pass one point or one letter of the law, until all of it shall be 48 accomplished. Matthew 5:19 Every one who shall violate now one of these small commandments, and shall teach men so, shall be called lacking in the kingdom of heaven: every one that shall do and teach shall be called great in the kingdom 49 of heaven. Matthew 5:20 I say unto you now, unless your righteousness abound more than that of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven.

50 Matthew 5:21 You have heard that it was said to the ancients, Do not kill; and every one that 51 kills is worthy of the judgement. Matthew 5:22 But I say unto you that every one who is angry with his brother without a cause is worthy of the judgement; and every one that says to his brother, You foul one, is condemned by the synagogue; and whosoever 52 says to him, You fool, is worthy of the fire of Gehenna. Matthew 5:23 If you are now offering your gift at the altar, and rememberest there that your brother has conceived 53 against you any grudge, Matthew 5:24 leave your gift at the altar, and go first and satisfy your 54 brother, and then return and offer your gift. Matthew 5:25a Join your adversary quickly, Luke 12:58a and while you are still with him in the way, give a ransom and free yourself from him; 55 lest your adversary deliver you to the judge, Matthew 5:25c and the judge deliver you to the tax-collector, 56 and you fall into prison. Matthew 5:26 And verily I say unto you, You shall not go out thence until you pay the last farthing.

57, 58 Matthew 5:27 You have heard that it was said, Do not commit adultery: Matthew 5:28 but I now say unto you, that every one that looks at a woman lusting after her has immediately already 59 [Arabic, p. 34] committed adultery with her in his heart. Matthew 5:29 If your right eye injure you, put it out and cast it from you; for it is preferable for you that one of your 60 members should perish, and not your whole body go into the fire of hell. Matthew 5:30 And if your right hand injure you, cut it off and cast it from you; and it is better for you that 61 one of your members should perish, and not your whole body fall into Gehenna. Matthew 5:31 It was said that he that puts away his wife should give her a writing of divorcement: 62 Matthew 5:32 but I say unto you, that every one that puts away his wife, except for the cause of adultery, has made it lawful for her to commit adultery: and whosoever takes one that is put away commits adultery.

 

1 Matthew 5:33 You have heard also that it was said unto the ancients, Lie not, but perform unto 2 God in your oaths: Matthew 5:34 but I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven, for it 3 is God's throne; Matthew 5:35 nor by the earth, for it is a footstool under his feet; nor yet by 4 Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Matthew 5:36 Neither shall you swear by your 5 head, for you can not make in it one lock of hair black or white. Matthew 5:37 But your word shall be either Yea or Nay, and what is in excess of this is of the evil one.

6, 7 Matthew 5:38 You have heard that it was said, Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth: Matthew 5:39 but I say unto you, Stand not in opposition to the evil; but whosoever smites you on your right 8 cheek, turn to him also the other. Matthew 5:40 And he that would sue you, and take your tunic, 9 leave to him also your wrapper. Matthew 5:41 And whosoever compels you one mile, go with 10 [Arabic, p. 35] him two. Matthew 5:42 And he that asks you, give unto him: Luke 6:30b and he that would borrow of you, prevent him not. And prosecute not him that takes your 11 substance. Luke 6:31 And as you desire that men should do to you, so do ye also to them.

12, 13 Matthew 5:43 You have heard that it was said, Love your neighbour and hate your enemy: Matthew 5:44 but I say unto you, Love your enemies, and pray for those that curse you, and deal well with those that hate you, and pray for those who take you with violence and persecute you; 14 Matthew 5:45 that you may be sons of your heavenly Father, who makes his sun to rise on the good and the evil, and sends down his rain on the righteous and the 15 unrighteous. Matthew 5:46 If you love them that love you, what reward shall you have? Luke 6:32b for the publicans 16 and sinners also love those that love them. Luke 6:33 And if you do a kindness to those 17 who treat you well, where is your superiority? For sinners also do likewise. Luke 6:34 And if you lend to him of whom you hope for a reward, where is your superiority? For the 18 sinners also lend to sinners, seeking recompense from them. Luke 6:35 But love your enemies, and do good to them, and lend, and cut not off the hope of any man; that your reward may be great, and you may be the children of the Highest: for he is lenient 19 towards the wicked and the ungrateful. Luke 6:36 Be merciful, even as your Father also is 20 merciful. Matthew 5:47 And if you inquire for the good of your brethren only, what more have 21 ye done than others? is not this the conduct of the publicans also? Matthew 5:48 Be now perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

22 Matthew 6:1 Consider your alms; do them not before men to let them see you: and if it be not 23 so, you have no reward before your Father which is in the heavens. Matthew 6:2 When then you give an alms now, do not sound a trumpet before you, as do the people of hypocrisy, [Arabic, p. 36] in the synagogues and the marketplaces, that men may praise them. And 24 verily say I unto you, They have received their reward. Matthew 6:3 But you, when 25 you do alms, let your left hand not know what your right hand does; Matthew 6:4 that your alms may be concealed: and your Father which sees in secret shall reward you openly.

26 Matthew 6:5 And whenever you pray, be not as the hypocrites, who love to stand in the synagogues and in the corners of the marketplaces for prayers, that men may behold 27 them. Matthew 6:6 And verily say I unto you, They have received their reward. But you, when you pray, enter into your closet, and fasten your door, and pray to your Father in secret, and your Father which sees in secret shall reward you openly. 28 Matthew 6:7 And whenever ye pray, be not babblers, as the heathen; for they think that by the 29 abundance of their words they shall be heard. Matthew 6:8 Then be not ye now like them: 30 for your Father knows your request before ye ask him. Luke 11:1b One of his disciples said 31 unto him, Our Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples. Luke 11:2a Jesus said unto 32 them, Thus now pray ye now: Matthew 6:9 Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be your 33, 34 name. Matthew 6:10 Your kingdom come. Your will be done, as in heaven, so on earth. Matthew 6:11 Give us the 35 food of today. Matthew 6:12 And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgave those that trespass ed 36 against us. Matthew 6:13 And bring us not into temptations, but deliver us from the evil one. For 37 yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Matthew 6:14 If you forgive [Arabic, p. 37] men their wrong-doing, your Father which is in heaven will forgive you. 38 Matthew 6:15 But if you forgive not men, neither will your Father pardon your wrong-doing.

39 Matthew 6:16 When ye fast, do not frown, as the hypocrites; for they make their faces austere, that they may be seen of men that they are fasting. Verily I say unto you, They 40 have received their reward. Matthew 6:17 But when you fast, wash your face and anoint your 41 head; Matthew 6:18 that you make not an appearance to men of fasting, but to your Father which is in secret: and your Father which sees in secret shall reward you.

42 Luke 12:32 Be not agitated, little flock; for your Father has delighted to give you the kingdom. 43 Luke 12:33a Sell your possessions, and give in alms; take to yourselves purses that wax 44 not old. Matthew 6:19 Lay not up treasure on earth, where moth and worm corrupt, and where 45 thieves break through and steal: Matthew 6:20 but lay up for yourselves treasure in heaven, where 46 moth and worm do not corrupt, nor thieves break through nor steal: Matthew 6:21 for where your 47 treasure is, there also will your heart be. Matthew 6:22 The lamp of the body is the eye: if then 48 your eye now be sound, your whole body also shall be light. Matthew 6:23 But if your eye be evil, all your body shall be dark. And if the light which is in you is darkness, how 49 great is your darkness! Luke 11:35 Be watchful that the light which is in you be not darkness. 50 Luke 11:36 Because that, if your whole body is light, and have no part dark, it shall all be light, as the lamp gives light to you with its flame.

1 [Arabic, p. 38] Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters; and that because it is necessary that he hate one of them and love the other, and honour one of them and despise the 2 other. Matthew 6:25 You cannot serve God and possessions. And because of this I say unto you, Be not anxious for yourselves, what you shall eat and what you shall drink; neither for your bodies, what you shall put on. Is not the life better than the food, and the body 3 than the raiment? Matthew 6:26 Consider the birds of the heaven, which sow not, nor reap, nor store in barns; and yet your Father which is in heaven feeds them. Are you not 4 better than they? Matthew 6:27 Who of you when he tries is able to add to his stature one 5 cubit? Luke 12:26 If then you are not able for a small thing, why are you anxious about the 6, 7 rest? Matthew 6:28 Consider the wild lily, how it grows, although it toils not, nor spins; Matthew 6:29 and I say unto you that Solomon in the greatness of his glory was not clothed like one of 8 them. Matthew 6:30 And if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow 9 is cast into the oven, how much more shall be unto you, O you of little faith! Matthew 6:31 Be not anxious, so as to say, What shall we eat? Or, What shall we drink? Or, With 10 what shall we be clothed? Luke 12:29b Neither let your minds be perplexed in this: Matthew 6:32 all these things the nations of the world seek; and your Father which is in heaven knows 11 your need of all these things. Matthew 6:33 Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; 12 [Arabic, p. 39] and all these shall come to you as something additional for you. Matthew 6:34 Be not anxious for the morrow; for the morrow shall be anxious for what belongs to it. Sufficient unto the day is its evil.

13 Matthew 7:1 Judge not, that you be not judged: Luke 6:37b condemn not, that you be not condemned: 14 Luke 6:38 forgive, and it shall be forgiven you: release, and you shall be released: give, that you may be given unto; with good measure, abundant, full, they shall thrust into your 15 bosoms. Mark 4:24b With what measure ye measure it shall be measured to you. See to it what ye hear: with what measure ye measure it shall be measured to you; and you 16 shall be given more. Mark 4:25 I say unto those that hear, He that has shall be given unto; and he that has not, that which he regards as his shall be taken from him.

17 Luke 6:39 And he spoke unto them a parable, Can a blind man haply guide a blind man? 18 shall they not both fall into a hollow? Luke 6:40 A disciple is not better than his master; 19 every perfect man shall be as his master. Luke 6:41 Why do you look at the mote which is in the eye of your brother, but considerest not the column that is in your own eye? 20 Luke 6:42 Or how can you say to your brother, Brother, I will take out the mote from your eye; and the column which is in your eye you see not? You hypocrite, take out first the column from your eye; and then shall you see to take out the mote from the eye of your brother.

21 Matthew 7:6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast your pearls before the swine, lest they trample them with their feet, and return and wound you.

22 Luke 11:5 And he said unto them, Who of you, that has a friend, goes to him at midnight, 23 and says unto him, My friend, lend me three loaves; Luke 11:6 for a friend has come 24 to me from a journey, and I have nothing to offer to him: Luke 11:7 and that friend shall [Arabic, p. 40] answer him from within, and say unto him, Trouble me not; for the door is shut, and my children are with me in bed, and I cannot rise and give you? 25 Luke 11:8 And verily I say unto you, If he will not give him because of friendship, yet because 26 of his importunity he will rise and give him what he seeks. Luke 11:9 And I also say unto you, Ask, and you shall be given unto; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be 27 opened unto you. Luke 11:10 Every one that asks receives, and he that seeks finds, and 28 he that knocks, it shall be opened to him. Luke 11:11 What father of you, shall his son ask for bread— will he, think you, give him a stone? and if he ask of him a fish, will he, 29 think you, Luke 11:12 instead of the fish give him a serpent? And if he ask him for an egg, will 30 he, think you, extend to him a scorpion? Luke 11:13 If you then, although being evil, know the gifts which are good, and give them to your children, how much more shall your 31 Father which is in heaven give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? Matthew 7:12 Whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: this is the law and the prophets.

32 Matthew 7:13 Enter ye by the narrow gate; for the wide gate and the broad way lead to destruction, 33 and many they be which go therein. Matthew 7:14 How narrow is the gate and straitened the way leading to life! And few be they that find it.

34 Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, while within 35 they are ravening wolves. Matthew 7:16a But by their fruits you shall know them. Luke 6:44 For every tree is known by its fruit. For figs are not gathered of thorns, neither are grapes plucked of 36 briers. Matthew 7:17 Even so every good tree brings forth good fruit, but the evil tree brings 37 [Arabic, p. 41] forth evil fruit. Matthew 7:18 The good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can the 38 evil tree bring forth good fruit. Luke 6:45 The good man from the good treasures that are in his heart brings forth good things; and the evil man from the evil treasures that are in his heart brings forth evil things: and from the overflowings of the 39 heart the lips speak. Matthew 7:19 Every tree that bears not good fruit is cut down and cast 40, 41 into the fire. Matthew 7:20 Therefore by their fruits you shall know them. Matthew 7:21 Not all that say unto me, My Lord, my Lord, shall enter the kingdom of the heavens; but he that does 42 the will of my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 7:22 Many shall say unto me in that day, My Lord, my Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name cast out 43 devils, and in your name do many powers? Matthew 7:23 Then shall I say unto them, I never 44 knew you: depart from me, you servants of iniquity. Luke 6:47 Every man that comes unto 45 me, and hears my sayings, and does them, I will show you to what he is like: Luke 6:48 he is like the wise man which built a house, and dug and went deep, and laid the 46 foundations on a rock: Matthew 7:25 and the rain came down, and the rivers overflowed, and the winds blew, and shook that house, and it fell not: for its foundation was laid on 47 rocks. Matthew 7:26 And every one that hears these my words, and does them not, is like 48 the foolish man which built his house on sand, without foundation: Matthew 7:27 and the rain descended, and the rivers overflowed, and the winds blew, and smote upon that house, and it fell: and the fall of it was great.

1 [Arabic, p. 42] Matthew 7:28 And when Jesus finished these sayings, the multitudes were astonished 2 at his teaching; Matthew 7:29 and that because he was teaching them as one having authority, not as their scribes and the Pharisees.

3 Matthew 8:1 And when he descended from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.

4 And when Jesus entered Capernaum, the servant of one of the chiefs was in an 5 evil case, and he was precious to him, and he was at the point of death. Luke 7:3 And he 6 heard of Jesus, and came to him with the elders of the Jews; and he besought him, and said, My Lord, my boy is laid in the house paralysed, and he is suffering grievous 7 torment. Luke 7:4b And the elders urgently requested of him, and said, He is worthy that 8 this should be done unto him: Luke 7:5 for he loves our people, and he also built the synagogue 9, 10 for us. Matthew 8:7 Jesus said unto him, I will come and heal him. Matthew 8:8 That chief answered and said, My Lord, I am not worthy that my roof should shade you; but it suffices 11 that you speak a word, and my lad shall be healed. Luke 7:8 And I also am a man in obedience to authority, having under my hand soldiers: and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant that he do this, 12 and he does it. Luke 7:9a And when Jesus heard that, he marvelled at him, and turned and said unto the multitude that were coming with him, Matthew 8:10b Verily I say unto you, I have 13 not found in Israel the like of this faith. Matthew 8:11 I say unto you, that many shall come from the east and the west, and shall recline with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob 14 [Arabic, p. 43] in the kingdom of heaven: Matthew 8:12 but the children of the kingdom shall be cast 15 forth into the outer darkness: and there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Matthew 8:13 And Jesus said to that chief, Go your way; as you have believed, so shall it be unto you. 16 Luke 7:10 And his lad was healed in that hour. And that chief returned to the house and found that sick servant healed.

17 Luke 7:11 And the day after, he was going to a city called Nain, and his disciples with him, 18 and a great multitude. Luke 7:12 And when he had come near the gate of the city, he saw a crowd accompanying one that was dead, the only son of his mother; and his mother was a widow: and there was with her a great multitude of the people of the 19 city. Luke 7:13 And when Jesus saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep 20 not. Luke 7:14 And he went and advanced to the bier, and the bearers of it stood still; and 21 he said, Young man, I say unto you, Arise. Luke 7:15 And that dead man sat up and began 22 to speak; and he gave him to his mother. Luke 7:16 And fear came on all the people: and they praised God, and said, There has risen among us a great prophet: and, God 23 has had regard to his people. Luke 7:17 And this news concerning him spread in all Judæa, and in all the region which was about them.

24 Matthew 8:18 And when Jesus saw great multitudes surrounding him, he commanded them to 25 depart to the other side. And while they were going in the way, there came one of the scribes and said unto him, My Master, I will follow you wherever you 26 go. Matthew 8:20 Jesus said unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven have 27 nests; but the Son of man has not a place in which to lay his head. Luke 9:59 And he said unto another, Follow me. And he said unto him, My Lord, suffer me first to go and 28 bury my father. Luke 9:60 Jesus said unto him, Leave the dead to bury their dead; but you, 29 follow me and preach the kingdom of God. Luke 9:61 And another said unto him, I will follow [Arabic, p. 44] you, my Lord; but first suffer me to go and salute my household and 30 come. Luke 9:62 Jesus said unto him, There is no one who puts his hand to the plough and looks behind him, and yet is fit for the kingdom of God.

31 And he said to them on that day in the evening, Let us go over to the other side 32 of the lake; and he left the multitudes. And Jesus went up and sat in the ship, 33 he and his disciples, and there were with them other ships. And there occurred on the sea a great tempest of whirlwind and wind, Luke 8:23c and the ship was on the point of 34 sinking from the greatness of the waves. Mark 4:38a But Jesus was sleeping on a cushion in the stern of the ship; Matthew 8:25 and his disciples came and awoke him, and said unto him, Our 35 Lord, save us; lo, we perish. Luke 8:24b And he rose, and rebuked the winds and the turbulence of the water, and said to the sea, Be still, for you are rebuked; Mark 4:39b and the wind 36 was still, and there was a great calm. Mark 4:40 And he said unto them, Why are you thus 37 afraid? And why have ye no faith? Luke 8:25b And they feared greatly. And they marvelled, and said one to another, Who, think you, is this, who commands also the wind and the waves and the sea, and they obey him?

38 Luke 8:26 And they departed and came to the country of the Gadarenes, which is on the 39 other side, opposite the land of Galilee. Luke 8:27a And when he went out of the ship to the land, there met him from among the tombs a man who had a devil for a long time, 40 and wore no clothes, neither dwelt in a house, but among the tombs. Mark 5:3b And no man was [Arabic, p. 45] able to bind him with chains, Mark 5:4a because any time that he was bound with chains 41 and fetters he cut the chains and loosened the fetters; Luke 8:29c and he was snatched 42 away of the devil into the desert, and no man was able to quiet him; and at all times, in the night and in the day, he would be among the tombs and in the mountains; Matthew 8:28b and no man was able to pass by that way; Mark 5:5b and he would cry out and wound himself 43 with stones. Mark 5:6 And when he saw Jesus at a distance, he hastened and worshipped 44 him, and cried with a loud voice and said, What have we to do with you, Jesus, 45 Son of the most high God? I adjure you by God, torment me not. And Jesus commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man: and he had suffered a long 46 time since the time when he came into captivity to it. Luke 8:30 And Jesus asked him, What is your name? He said unto him, Legion; for there had entered into him many 47 devils. Luke 8:31 And they besought him that he would not command them to depart into 48 the depths. Luke 8:32 And there was there a herd of many swine, feeding in the mountain, and those devils besought him to give them leave to enter the swine; and he gave 49 them leave. Luke 8:33 And the devils went out of the man and entered into the swine. Mark 5:13b And that herd hastened to the summit and fell down into the midst of the sea, about two 50 thousand, and they were choked in the water. Luke 8:34 And when the keepers saw what 51 happened, they fled, and told those in the cities and villages. Luke 8:35 And the people went out to see what had happened; and they came to Jesus, and found the man whose [Arabic, p. 46] devils had gone out, clothed, modest, seated at the feet of Jesus; and they 52 feared. Luke 8:36 And they reported what they saw, and how the man was healed who had a devil, Mark 5:16b and concerning those swine also.

1 Luke 8:37a And all the multitude of the Gadarenes entreated him to depart from them, because that great fear took hold upon them.

2, 3 Matthew 9:1 But Jesus went up into the ship, and crossed, and came to his city. Luke 8:38 And that man from whom the devils went out entreated that he might stay with him; but 4 Jesus sent him away, and said unto him, Luke 8:39a Return to your house, and make known what 5 God has done for you. Mark 5:20 And he went, and began to publish in Decapolis what Jesus had done for him; and they all marvelled.

6 And when Jesus had crossed in the ship to that side, a great multitude received 7 him; and they were all looking for him. Luke 8:41a And a man named Jairus, the chief of the 8 synagogue, fell before the feet of Jesus, Mark 5:23a and besought him much, and said unto him, I have an only daughter, and she has come near unto death; Matthew 9:18b but come and lay your 9 hand upon her, and she shall live. Matthew 9:19 And Jesus rose, and his disciples, and they followed 10 him. Mark 5:24b And there joined him a great multitude, and they pressed him.

11, 12 Mark 5:25 And a woman, which had a flow of blood for twelve years, Mark 5:26 had suffered much of many physicians, and spent all that she had, and was not benefited at all, but her 13 trouble increased further. Mark 5:27 And when she heard of Jesus, she came in the thronging of 14 [Arabic, p. 47] the crowd behind him, and touched his garments; Mark 5:28 and she thought within 15 herself, If I could reach to touch his garments, I should live. Mark 5:29 And immediately the fountain of her blood was dried; and she felt in her body that she was healed 16 of her plague. Mark 5:30 And Jesus straightway knew within himself that power had gone out of him; and he turned to the crowd, and said, Who approached unto my garments? 17 Luke 8:45b And on their denying, all of them, Simon Cephas and those with him said unto him, Our Master, the multitudes throng you and press you, and do you say, Who approached 18 unto me? Luke 8:46 And he said, Some one approached unto me; and I knew that 19 power went forth from me. Luke 8:47a And that woman, when she saw that she was not hid 20 from him, came fearing and agitated (for she knew what had happened to her), and fell down and worshipped him, and told, in the presence of all the people, for what 21 reason she touched him, and how she was healed immediately. And Jesus said unto her, Be of good courage, daughter; your faith has made you alive; depart in peace, and be whole from your plague.

22 Luke 8:49 And while he was yet speaking, there came a man from the house of the chief of the synagogue, and said unto him, Your daughter has died; so trouble not the 23 teacher. Luke 8:50 But Jesus heard, and said unto the father of the maid, Fear not: but believe 24 only, and she shall live. Mark 5:37 And he suffered no man to go with him, except 25 Simon Cephas, and James, and John the brother of James. Mark 5:38 And they reached the house of the chief of the synagogue; and he saw them agitated, weeping and wailing. 26 Mark 5:39 And he entered, and said unto them, Why are you agitated and weeping? The 27 [Arabic, p. 48] maid has not died, but she is sleeping. Luke 8:53 And they laughed at him, for 28 they knew that she had died. Mark 5:40b And he put every man forth without, and took the father of the maid, and her mother, and Simon, and James, and John, and 29 entered into the place where the maid was laid. Mark 5:41 And he took hold of the hand of the maid, and said unto her, Maid, arise. Luke 8:55a And her spirit returned, and straightway 30 she arose and walked: Mark 5:42b and she was about twelve years of age. Luke 8:55b And he commanded 31 that there should be given to her something to eat. Luke 8:56 And her father wondered greatly: 32 and he warned them that they should tell no man what had happened. Matthew 9:26 And this report spread in all that land.

33 Matthew 9:27 And when Jesus crossed over from there, there joined him two blind men, crying 34 out, and saying, Have mercy on us, you son of David. Matthew 9:28 And when he came to the house, those two blind men came to him: and Jesus said unto them, Believe ye 35 that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, our Lord. Matthew 9:29 Then he touched 36 their eyes, and said, As you have believed, it shall be unto you. Matthew 9:30 And immediately their eyes were opened. And Jesus forbade them, and said, See that no man know. 37 Matthew 9:31 But they went out and published the news in all that land.

38 Matthew 9:32 And when Jesus went out, they brought to him a dumb man having a devil. 39 Matthew 9:33 And on the going out of the devil that dumb man spoke. And the multitudes marvelled, and said, It was never so seen in Israel

40 Matthew 9:35 And Jesus was going about in all the cities and in the villages, and teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease 41 [Arabic, p. 49] and sickness; and many followed him. Matthew 9:36 And when Jesus saw the multitudes, he had compassion on them, for they were wearied and scattered, as sheep 42 that have no shepherd. And he called his twelve disciples, and gave them power and 43 much authority over all devils and diseases; Luke 9:2 and sent them two and two, that they 44 might proclaim the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick. Matthew 10:5 And he charged them, and said, Walk not in the way of the heathen, nor enter into the cities of the Samaritans. 45, 46 Matthew 10:6 Go especially unto the sheep that are lost of the sons of Israel. Matthew 10:7 And 47 when you go, proclaim and say, The kingdom of heaven has come near. Matthew 10:8 And heal the sick, and cleanse the lepers, and cast out the devils: freely you have received, freely 48, 49 give. Matthew 10:9f Get you not gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses; and take nothing for the way, except a staff only; nor bag, nor bread; neither shall you have two tunics, 50 nor shoes, nor staff, but be shod with sandals; for the labourer is worthy of his food. 51 Matthew 10:10d And whatever city or village ye enter, inquire who is worthy in it, and there be until 52, 53 ye go out. Matthew 10:11 And when you enter into the house, ask for the peace of the house: and if the house is worthy, your peace shall come upon it; but if it is not worthy, your 54 peace shall return unto you. And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your sayings, when you go out from that house, or from that village, shake off the dust 55 [Arabic, p. 50] that is under your feet against them for a testimony. Matthew 10:15 And verily I say unto you, To the land of Sodom and Gomorrha there shall be rest in the day of judgement, rather than to that city.

1 Matthew 10:16 I am sending you as lambs among wolves: be ye now wise as serpents, and 2 harmless as doves. Matthew 10:17 Beware of men: they shall deliver you to the councils of the 3 magistrates, and scourge you in their synagogues; Matthew 10:18 and shall bring you before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and against the nations. 4 Matthew 10:19 And when they deliver you up, be not anxious, nor consider beforehand, what ye 5 shall say; but you shall be given in that hour what ye ought to speak. Matthew 10:20 You do not 6 speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaks in you. Matthew 10:21 The brother shall deliver up his brother to death, and the father his son; and the sons shall rise against their 7 parents, and put them to death. Matthew 10:22 And you shall be hated of every man because of 8 my name; but he that endures unto the end of the matter shall be saved. Matthew 10:23 When they expel you from this city, flee to another. Verily I say unto you, You shall not finish all the cities of the people of Israel, until the Son of man come.

9, 10 Matthew 10:24 A disciple is not superior to his lord, nor a servant to his master. Matthew 10:25 For it is enough then for the disciple that he be as his lord, and the servant as his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more the people 11 of his house! Matthew 10:26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall 12 [Arabic, p. 51] not be revealed; nor hid, that shall not be disclosed and published. What I say unto you in the darkness, speak ye in the light; and what you have told 13 secretly in the ears in closets, let it be proclaimed on the housetops. I say unto you now, my beloved, Be not agitated at those who kill the body, but have no power to 14 kill the soul. I will inform you whom you shall fear: him which is able to destroy 15 soul and body in hell. Yea, I say unto you, Be afraid of him especially. Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing in a bond? and one of them shall not fall on the 16 ground without your Father. Matthew 10:30 But what concerns you: even the hair of your heads 17, 18 also is numbered. Matthew 10:31 Fear not therefore; you are better than many sparrows. Matthew 10:32 Every man who confesses me now before men, I also will confess him before my Father 19 which is in heaven; Matthew 10:33 but whosoever denies me before men, I also will deny him before my Father which is in heaven.

20 Luke 12:51 Think ye that I have come to cast peace into the earth? I came not to cast peace, 21 but to cast dissension. Luke 12:52 Henceforth there shall be five in one house, three of them 22 disagreeing with two, and the two with the three. Luke 12:53 The father shall become hostile to his son, and the son to his father; and the mother to her daughter, and the daughter to her mother; and the mother in law to her daughter in law, and the daughter 23 in law to her mother in law: Matthew 10:36 and a man's enemies shall be the people of his house. 24 Matthew 10:37 Whosoever loves father or mother better than me is not worthy of me; and whosoever [Arabic, p. 52] loves son or daughter more than his love of me is not worthy of me. 25 Matthew 10:38 And every one that does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of 26 me. Matthew 10:39 Whosoever finds his life shall lose it; and whosoever loses his life for my sake shall find it.

27 Matthew 10:40 And whosoever receives you receives me; and whosoever receives me receives 28 him that sent me. Matthew 10:41 And whosoever receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall take a prophet's reward; and whosoever shall receive a righteous man 29 in the name of a righteous man shall take a righteous man's reward. And every one that shall give to drink to one of these least ones a drink of water only, in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.

30 Matthew 11:1 And when Jesus finished charging his twelve disciples, he removed thence to 31 teach and preach in their cities. Luke 10:38 And while they were going in the way they entered into a certain village; and a woman named Martha entertained him in her house. 32 Luke 10:39 And she had a sister named Mary, and she came and sat at the feet of our Lord, 33 and heard his sayings. Luke 10:40 But Martha was disquieted by much serving; and she came and said unto him, My Lord, do you give no heed that my sister left me alone to 34 serve? Speak to her that she help me. Luke 10:41 Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, 35 Martha, you are solicitous and impatient on account of many things: Luke 10:42 but what is sought is one thing. But Mary has chosen for herself a good portion, and that which shall not be taken from her.

36 Mark 6:12 And the apostles went forth, and preached to the people that they might repent. 37 Mark 6:13 And they cast out many devils, and anointed many sick with oil, and healed them. 38, 39 Luke 7:18 And the disciples of John told him of all these things. And when John heard in [Arabic, p. 53] the prison of the doings of the Messiah, he called two of his disciples, and sent them to Jesus, and said, Are you he that comes, or look we for 40 another? Luke 7:20 And they came to Jesus, and said unto him, John the Baptist has sent 41 us unto you, and said, Are you he that comes, or look we for another? Luke 7:21 And in that hour he cured many of diseases, and of plagues of an evil spirit; and he gave sight 42 to many blind. Luke 7:22 Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and tell John everything you have seen and heard: the blind see, and the lame walk, and the lepers are cleansed, and the blind hear, and the dead rise, and the poor have the gospel preached to 43 them. Luke 7:23 And blessed is he who doubts not in me.

44 Luke 7:24 And when John's disciples departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the 45 winds? Luke 7:25 And if not, then what went ye out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they that are in magnificent garments and in voluptuousness are in the abode 46 of kings. Luke 7:26 And if not, then what went ye out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto 47 you, and more than a prophet. Luke 7:27 This is he of whom it is written,

I am sending my messenger before your face
To prepare the way before you.

 

1 Matthew 11:11 Verily I say unto you, There has not arisen among those whom women have borne a greater than John the Baptist; but he that is little now in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

2 [Arabic, p. 54] Luke 7:29 And all the people which heard, and the publicans, justified God, for 3 they had been baptized with the baptism of John. Luke 7:30 But the Pharisees and the scribes wronged the purpose of God in themselves, in that they were not baptized of 4 him. Matthew 11:12a And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven is 5 snatched away by violence. Luke 16:16 The law and the prophets were until John; and after that, the kingdom of God is preached, and all press to enter it: Matthew 11:12b and they that exert themselves 6, 7 snatch it away. Matthew 11:13 All the prophets and the law until John prophesied. Matthew 11:14 And if you 8 will, then receive it, that he is Elijah, which is to come. Matthew 11:15 Whosoever has ears that hear 9 let him hear. Luke 16:17 Easier is the perishing of heaven and earth, than the passing away of 10 one point of the law. Luke 7:31b To whom then shall I liken the people of this generation, and 11 to whom are they like? Luke 7:32 They are like the children sitting in the market, which call to their companions, and say, We sang to you, and you danced not; we wailed to you, 12 and you wept not. Luke 7:33 John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; 13 and you said, He has demons: Luke 7:34 and the Son of man came eating and drinking; and you said, Behold, a gluttonous man, and a drinker of wine, and an associate of publicans 14, 15 and sinners! Luke 7:35 And wisdom was justified of all her children. And when he said that, they came to the house. And there gathered unto him again multitudes, 16 so that they found not bread to eat. Luke 11:14 And while he was casting out a devil which was dumb, when he cast out that devil, that dumb man spoke. And the multitudes 17 [Arabic, p. 55] marvelled. Matthew 12:24 And the Pharisees, when they heard, said, This man does not cast out the devils, except by Beelzebul the chief of the demons, which is in him. 18, 19 Luke 11:16 And others requested of him a sign from heaven, to tempt him. Matthew 12:25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them in parables, Every kingdom that withstands itself shall become desolate; and every house or city that disagrees with itself shall not 20 stand: Matthew 12:26a and if a devil cast out a devil, he withstands himself; neither shall he be 21 able to stand, but his end shall be. Then how now shall his kingdom stand? For you 22 said that I cast out devils by Beelzebul. And if I by Beelzebul cast out the devils, then your children, by what do they cast them out? And for this cause they shall 23 be judges against you. Matthew 12:28 But if I by the Spirit of God cast out devils, then the kingdom 24 of God has come near unto you. Matthew 12:29 Or how can a man enter into the house of a valiant man, and seize his garments, if he do not beforehand secure himself from 25 that valiant man? and then will he cut off his house. Luke 11:21 But when the valiant man is 26 armed, guarding his house, his possessions are in peace. Luke 11:22 But if one come who is more valiant than he, he overcomes him, and takes his whole armour, on which 27 he relies, and divides his spoil. Luke 11:23 Whosoever is not with me is against me; and 28 whosoever gathers not with me scatters abroad. Mark 3:28 For this reason I say unto you, [Arabic, p. 56] that all sins and blasphemies with which men blaspheme shall be forgiven 29 them: but whosoever shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit, there is no 30 forgiveness for him for ever, but he is deserving of eternal punishment: Mark 3:30 because they 31 said that he had an unclean spirit. Matthew 12:32 And he said also, Every one that speaks a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him; but whosoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in the world to 32 come. Matthew 12:33 Either ye must make a good tree and its fruit good; or ye must make an evil 33 tree and its fruit evil: for the tree is known by its fruit. Matthew 12:34 You children of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? From the overflowings of the heart the mouth 34 speaks. Luke 6:45a The good man from the good treasures which are in his heart brings forth good things; and the wicked man from the evil treasures which are in his 35 heart brings forth evils. Matthew 12:36 I say unto you, that every idle word which men shall 36 speak, they shall give an answer for in the day of judgement: Matthew 12:37 for by your sayings you shall be justified, and by your sayings you shall be judged.

37 Luke 12:54 And he said to the multitudes, When ye see the clouds appear from the west, 38 straightway ye say that there comes rain; and so it comes to pass. Luke 12:55 And when 39 the south wind blows, you say that there will be heat; and it comes to pass. Matthew 16:2b And when the evening has come, you say, It will be fair weather, for the heaven has become 40 red. Matthew 16:3 And in the morning ye say, Today there will be severe weather, for the redness [Arabic, p. 57] of the heaven is paling. You hypocrites, you know to examine the face of the heaven and the earth; but the signs of this time ye know not to discern.

41 Matthew 12:22 Then they brought to him one possessed of a demon, dumb and blind; and he 42 healed him, so that the dumb and blind began to speak and see. Matthew 12:23 And all the multitudes wondered, and said, Is this, think you, the son of David?

43 Mark 6:30 And the apostles returned unto Jesus, and told him everything that they had 44 done and wrought. Mark 6:31 And he said unto them, Come, let us go into the desert alone, and rest ye a little. And many were going and returning, and they had not leisure, not even to eat bread.

45 Luke 7:36 And after that, there came to him one of the Pharisees, and besought him that he would eat bread with him. And he entered into the house of that Pharisee, and 46 reclined. Luke 7:37 And there was in that city a woman that was a sinner; and when she knew that he was sitting in the house of that Pharisee, she took a box of sweet ointment, 47 and stood behind him, Luke 7:38 towards his feet, weeping, and began to wet his feet with her tears, and to wipe them with the hair of her head, and to kiss his feet, and 48 anoint them with the sweet ointment. Luke 7:39 And when that Pharisee saw it, who invited him, he thought within himself, and said, This man, if he were a prophet, would know who she is and what is her history: for the woman which touched him was a sinner.

 

1 Luke 7:40 Jesus answered and said unto him, Simon, I have something to say unto you. And 2 he said unto him, Say on, my Master. Luke 7:41 Jesus said unto him, There were two debtors [Arabic, p. 58] to one creditor; and one of them owed five hundred pence, and the other 3 owed fifty pence. Luke 7:42 And because they had not wherewith to pay, he forgave 4 them both. Which of them ought to love him more? Luke 7:43 Simon answered and said, I suppose, he to whom he forgave most. Jesus said unto him, You have judged rightly. 5 Luke 7:44 And he turned to that woman, and said to Simon, Do you see this woman? I entered into your dwelling, and you gave me not water to wash my feet: but this 6 woman has bathed my feet with her tears, and dried them with her hair. Luke 7:45 And you kissed me not: but this woman, since she entered, has not ceased to kiss my 7 feet. Luke 7:46 And you anointed not my head with oil: but this woman has anointed 8 my feet with sweet ointment. Luke 7:47 And for this, I say unto you, Her many sins are forgiven her, because she loved much; for he to whom little is forgiven loves little. 9, 10 Luke 7:48 And he said unto that woman, Your sins are forgiven you. Luke 7:49 And those that were invited 11 began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgives sins also? Luke 7:50 And Jesus said to that woman, Your faith has saved you; go in peace.

12 John 2:23b And many believed in him when they saw the signs which he was doing. 13, 14 John 2:24 But Jesus did not trust himself to them, John 2:25 for he knew every man, and he needed not any man to testify to him concerning every man; for he knew what was in man.

15 Luke 10:1 And after that, Jesus set apart from his disciples other seventy, and sent them two and two before his face to every region and city whither he was purposing to 16 go. Luke 10:2 And he said unto them, The harvest is abundant, and the labourers are few: 17 entreat now the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth labourers into his harvest. Luke 10:3 Go 18 [Arabic, p. 59] ye: and lo, I am sending you as lambs among wolves. Luke 10:4 Take not with you 19 purses, nor a wallet, nor shoes; neither salute any man in the way. Luke 10:5 And 20 whatsoever house ye enter, first salute that house: Luke 10:6 and if there be there a son of peace, 21 let your peace rest upon him; but if there be not, your peace shall return to you. Luke 10:7 And be ye in that house eating and drinking what they have: for the labourer is worthy of 22 his hire. Luke 10:8 And remove not from house to house. And into whatsoever city ye enter, 23 and they receive you, eat what is presented to you: Luke 10:9 and heal the sick that are 24 therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God has come near unto you. Luke 10:10 But whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go out into the market, and say, 25 Luke 10:11 Even the dust that clave to our feet from your city, we shake off against you; but 26 know this, that the kingdom of God has come near unto you. Luke 10:12 I say unto you, that for Sodom there shall be quiet in the day of judgement, but there shall not be for 27 that city. Matthew 11:20 Then began Jesus to rebuke the cities in which there had been many 28 mighty works, and they repented not. Matthew 11:21 And he said, Woe unto you, Chorazin! Woe unto you, Bethsaida! If there had been in Tyre and Sidon the signs which were in 29 you, it may be that they would have repented in sackcloth and ashes. Matthew 11:22 Howbeit I say unto you, that for Tyre and Sidon there shall be rest in the day of judgement, 30 more than for you. Matthew 11:23 And you, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shall sink down unto Hades; for if there had been in Sodom the wonders which were 31 in you, it would have remained until this day. Matthew 11:24 And now I say unto you, that for the land of Sodom there shall be quiet in the day of judgement, more than for you.

32 [Arabic, p. 60] Luke 10:16 And he said again unto his apostles, Whosoever hears you hears me; and whosoever hears me hears him that sent me: and whosoever wrongs you wrongs me; and whosoever wrongs me wrongs him that sent me.

33 Luke 10:17 And those seventy returned with great joy, and said unto him, Our Lord, even 34 the devils also are subject unto us in your name. Luke 10:18 He said unto them, I beheld 35 Satan fallen like lightning from heaven. Luke 10:19 Behold, I am giving you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and the whole race of the enemy; and nothing shall 36 hurt you. Luke 10:20 Only ye must not rejoice that the devils are subject unto you; but be glad that your names are written in heaven.

37 Luke 10:21 And in that hour Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I acknowledge you, my Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them unto children: yea, my Father; so 38 was your will. Luke 10:22 And he turned to his disciples, and said unto them, Everything has been delivered to me of my Father: and no man knows who the Son is, save the Father; and who the Father is, save the Son, and to whomsoever the Son wills 39 to reveal him. Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all of you, you that are wearied and bearers of burdens, 40 and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:29 Bear my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I 41 am gentle and lowly in my heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls. Matthew 11:30 For my yoke is pleasant, and my burden is light.

42 Luke 14:25 And while great multitudes were going with him, he turned, and said unto them, 43 Luke 14:26 Whosoever comes unto me, and hates not his father, and his mother, and his brethren, and his sisters, and his wife, and his children, and himself also, cannot 44 [Arabic, p. 61] be a disciple to me. Luke 14:27 And whosoever does not take his cross, and follow 45 me, cannot be a disciple to me. Luke 14:28 Which of you desires to build a tower, and does not sit down first and reckon his expenses and whether he has enough to 46 complete it? Luke 14:29 lest when he has laid the foundations, and is not able to finish, all that 47 behold him laugh at him, and say, Luke 14:30 This man began to build, and was not able to 48 finish. Luke 14:31 Or what king goes to the battle to fight with another king, and does not consider first whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him that comes to him 49 with twenty thousand? Luke 14:32 And if he is not able, he sends unto him while he is afar 50 off, and seeks peace. Luke 14:33 So shall every man of you consider, that desires to be a disciple to me; for if he renounces not all that he has, he cannot be a disciple to me.

 

1 Matthew 12:38 Then answered certain of the scribes and Pharisees, that they might tempt him, 2 and said, Teacher, we desire to see a sign from you. Matthew 12:39 He answered and said, This evil and adulterous generation seeks a sign; and it shall not be given a sign, 3 except the sign of Jonah the prophet. Luke 11:30 And as Jonah was a sign to the inhabitants 4 of Nineveh, so shall the Son of man also be to this generation. Matthew 12:40 And as Jonah was in the belly of the great fish three days and three nights, so shall the Son of man 5 be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights. Luke 11:31 The queen of the south shall rise in the judgement with the people of this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the ends of the earth that she might hear the wisdom of Solomon; 6 [Arabic, p. 62] and behold, here is a better than Solomon. Matthew 12:41 The men of Nineveh shall stand in the judgement with this generation, and condemn it: for they repented at 7 the preaching of Jonah; and behold, here is a greater than Jonah. Luke 11:24 The unclean spirit, when he goes out of the man, departs, and goes about through places wherein are no waters, that he may find rest for himself; and when he finds it not, he 8 says, I will return to my house whence I came out. Luke 11:25 And if he come and find it 9 adorned and set in order, Luke 11:26 then he goes, and associates with himself seven other spirits worse than himself; and they enter and dwell in it: and the end of that man 10 shall be worse than his beginning. Matthew 12:45b Thus shall it be unto this evil generation.

11 Luke 11:27 And while he was saying that, a woman from the multitude lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare you, and the breasts that nursed 12 you. Luke 11:28 But he said unto her, Blessed is he that hears the word of God, and keeps it.

13 And while he was speaking unto the multitude, there came unto him his mother 14 and his brethren, and sought to speak with him; and they were not able, because of 15 the multitude; and they stood without and sent, calling him unto them. A man said unto him, Behold, your mother and your brethren are standing without, and seek to 16 speak with you. Matthew 12:48 But he answered unto him that spoke unto him, Who is my 17 mother? And who are my brethren? Matthew 22:49 And he beckoned with his hand, stretching it out towards his disciples, and said, Behold, my mother! And behold, my brethren! 18 Matthew 12:50 And every man that shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven is my brother, and my sister, and my mother.

19 And after that, Jesus was going about in the cities and in the villages, and proclaiming [Arabic, p. 63] and preaching the kingdom of God, and his twelve with him, 20 Luke 8:2 and the women which had been healed of diseases and of evil spirits, Mary 21 that was called Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven devils, Luke 8:3 and Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who were ministering to them of their substance.

22 Matthew 13:1 And after that, Jesus went out of the house, and sat on the sea shore. Matthew 13:2 And there 23 gathered unto him great multitudes. And when the press of the people was great upon him, he went up and sat in the boat; and all the multitude was standing on the 24 shore of the sea. Matthew 13:3 And he spoke to them much in parables, and said, The sower 25 went forth to sow: and when he sowed, some fell on the beaten highway; and it was 26 trodden upon, and the birds ate it. Matthew 13:5 And other fell on the rocks: and some, where there was not much earth; and straightway it sprang up, because it had no depth in 27 the earth: Matthew 13:6 and when the sun rose, it withered; and because it had no root, it dried 28 up. And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it; 29 and it yielded no fruit. And other fell into excellent and good ground; and it came up, and grew, and brought forth fruit, some thirty, and some sixty, and some 30 a hundred. Luke 8:8c And when he said that, he cried, He that has ears that hear, let him 31 hear. And when they were alone, his disciples came, and asked him, and said unto 32 him, What is this parable? And why did you speak to them in parables? He [Arabic, p. 64] answered and said unto them, Unto you is given the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God; but it is not given unto them that are 33 without. Matthew 13:12 He that has shall be given unto, and there shall be added; and he that 34 has not, that which he has shall be taken from him also. Matthew 13:13 For this cause therefore I speak unto them in parables; because they see, and see not; and hear, and hear 35 not, nor understand. Matthew 13:14 And in them is being fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah, who said,

Hearing they shall hear, and shall not understand;
And seeing they shall see, and shall not perceive:
36 Matthew 13:15 The heart of this people has grown gross,
And their hearing with their ears has become heavy,
And they have closed their eyes;
Lest they should see with their eyes,
And hear with their ears,
And understand with their hearts,
And should return,
And I should heal them.

37, 38 Matthew 13:16 But you, blessed are your eyes, which see; and your ears, which hear. Luke 10:23b Blessed 39 are the eyes which see what ye see. Matthew 13:17 Verily I say unto you, Many of the prophets and the righteous longed to see what ye see, and saw not; and to hear what ye 40 hear, and heard not. Mark 4:13b When ye know not this parable, how shall you know all parables? 41, 42 Matthew 13:18 Hear ye the parable of the sower. Mark 4:14 The sower which sowed, sowed the word 43 of God. Matthew 13:19 Every one who hears the word of the kingdom, and understands it not, the evil one comes and snatches away the word that has been sown in his 44 heart: and this is that which was sown on the middle of the highway. Matthew 13:20 But that which was sown on the rocks is he that hears the word, and straightway receives 45, 46 [Arabic, p. 65] it with joy; Matthew 13:21a only, it has no root in his soul, but his belief in it is for a time; and whenever there is distress or persecution because of a word, he 47 stumbles quickly. Matthew 13:22a And that which was sown among the thorns is he that hears the word; Mark 4:19b and the care of this world, and the error of riches, and the rest of the 48 other lusts enter, and choke the word, and it becomes without fruit. Luke 8:15 And that which was sown in good ground is he that hears my word in a pure and good heart, and understands it, and holds to it, and brings forth fruit with patience, Matthew 13:23b and produces either a hundredfold or sixtyfold or thirty.

49 Mark 4:26 And he said, So is the kingdom of God, like a man who casts seed into the 50 earth, and sleeps and rises by night and day, Mark 4:27 and the seed grows and comes 51 up, whence he knows not. Mark 4:28 And the earth brings it to the fruit; and first it 52 will be blade, and after it ear, and at last perfect wheat in the ear: Mark 4:29 and whenever the fruit ripens, he brings immediately the sickle, for the harvest has come.

 

1 Matthew 13:24 And he set forth to them another parable, and said, The kingdom of heaven is 2 like a man who sowed good seed in his field; Matthew 13:25 but when men slept, his enemy came 3 and sowed tares among the wheat, and went away. Matthew 13:26 And when the blade sprang up 4 and brought forth fruit, there were noticed the tares also. Matthew 13:27 And the servants of the master of the house came, and said unto him, Our lord, did you not sow good 5 [Arabic, p. 66] seed in your field? Whence are there tares in it? Matthew 13:28 He said unto them, An enemy has done this. His servants said unto him, Will you that we go 6 and separate it? Matthew 13:29 He said unto them, Perhaps, when you separate the tares, you would 7 root up with them wheat also. Matthew 13:30 Leave them to grow both together until the harvest: and in the time of the harvest I will say unto the reapers, Separate the tares first, and bind them in bundles to be burned with fire; and gather the wheat into my barns.

8, 9 Matthew 13:31a And he set forth to them another parable, and said, Luke 13:18b To what is the kingdom of 10 God like? And to what shall I liken it? And in what parable shall I set it forth? It 11 is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and planted in his field: and of the number of the things that are sown in the earth it is smaller than all of the things 12 which are sown, which are upon the earth; but when it is grown, it is greater than all the herbs, and produces large branches, so that the birds of heaven make their nests in its branches.

13, 14 And he set forth to them another parable: Luke 13:20b To what shall I liken the kingdom of 15 God? Matthew 13:33b It is like the leaven which a woman took, and kneaded into three measures of flour, until the whole of it was leavened.

16 And Jesus spoke all that to the multitudes by way of parables, according as they 17 were able to hear. And without parables spoke he not unto them; that the saying of the Lord through the prophet might be fulfilled:

I will open my mouth in parables;
And I will utter secrets which were before the foundations of the world.

18 Mark 4:34b But he explained to his disciples privately everything.

19 Matthew 13:36 Then Jesus left the multitudes, and came to the house. And his disciples came unto him, and said unto him, Explain unto us that parable about the tares 20 [Arabic, p. 67] and the field. Matthew 13:37 He answered and said unto them, He that sowed good seed is 21 the Son of man; Matthew 13:38 and the field is the world; and the good seed are the children of the 22 kingdom; Matthew 13:39 and the tares are the children of the evil one; and the enemy that sowed them is Satan; and the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. 23 Matthew 13:40 And as the tares are separated and burned in the fire, so shall it be in the end of 24 this world. Matthew 13:41 The Son of man shall send his angels, and separate from his kingdom 25 all things that injure, Matthew 13:42 and all the doers of iniquity, and they shall cast them into the 26 furnace of fire: and there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Matthew 13:43 Then the righteous shall shine as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whosoever has ears that hear, let him hear.

27 Matthew 13:44 And again the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hid in a field: that which a man found and hid; and, for his pleasure in it, went and sold all that he had, and bought that field.

28 Matthew 13:45 And again the kingdom of heaven is like a man that is a merchant seeking excellent 29 pearls; Matthew 13:46 and when he found one pearl of great price, he went and sold everything that he had, and bought it.

30 Matthew 13:47 And again the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea, and 31 gathered of every kind: Matthew 13:48 and when it was filled, they drew it up on to the shore of the sea, and sat down to select; and the good of them they threw into the vessels, 32 and the bad they threw outside. Matthew 13:49 Thus shall it be in the end of the world: the angels 33 shall go forth, Matthew 13:50 and separate the wicked from among the good, and shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

34 Matthew 13:51 Jesus said unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They said unto 35 [Arabic, p. 68] him, Yea, our Lord. Matthew 13:52 He said unto them, Therefore every scribe that becomes a disciple of the kingdom of heaven is like a man that is a householder, who brings out of his treasures the new and the old.

36, 37 Matthew 13:53 And when Jesus had finished all these parables, he removed thence, and came to his city; Matthew 13:54 and he taught them in their synagogues, so that they were perplexed. 38 Mark 6:2 And when the sabbath came, Jesus began to teach in the synagogue; and many of 39 those that heard marvelled, and said, Whence came these things to this man? And many envied him and gave no heed to him, but said, What is this wisdom that is given to this man, that there should happen at his hands such as these mighty works? 40 Matthew 13:55 Is not this a carpenter, son of a carpenter? And is not his mother called Mary? And 41 his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? Matthew 13:56 And his sisters, all of them, 42 lo, are they not all with us? Matthew 13:57 Whence has this man all these things? And they were in doubt concerning him. Luke 4:23 And Jesus knew their opinion, and said unto them, Will ye haply say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal first yourself: and all that 43 we have heard that you did in Capernaum, do here also in your own city? Luke 4:24 And he said, Verily I say unto you, A prophet is not received in his own city, nor among 44 his brethren: Mark 6:4b for a prophet is not despised, save in his own city, and among his own 45 kin, and in his own house. Luke 4:25 Verily I say unto you, In the days of Elijah the prophet, there were many widows among the children of Israel, when the heaven held back 46 three years and six months, Luke 4:26 and there was a great famine in all the land; and Elijah [Arabic, p. 69] was not sent to one of them, save to Zarephath of Sidon, to a woman that was 47 a widow. Luke 4:27 And many lepers were among the children of Israel in the days of Elisha the prophet; but not one of them was cleansed, save Naaman the Nabathæan. 48 Mark 6:5 And he was not able to do there many mighty works, because of their unbelief; 49 except that he laid his hand upon a few of the sick, and healed them. Mark 6:6a And he marvelled 50 at their lack of faith. Luke 4:28 And when those who were in the synagogue heard, 51 they were all filled with wrath; and they rose up, Luke 4:29 and brought him forth outside the city, and brought him to the brow of the hill upon which their city was built, that 52 they might cast him from its summit: Luke 4:30 but he passed through among them and went away.

53 Mark 6:6b And he went about in the villages which were around Nazareth, and taught in their synagogues.

 

1 At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus, and all the things which came to pass at his hand; Mark 6:14b and he marvelled, for he had obtained excellent 2 information concerning him. Luke 9:7c And some men said that John the Baptist was risen 3 from among the dead; and others said that Elijah had appeared; and others, Jeremiah; 4 and others, that a prophet of the old prophets was risen; and others said that he 5 was a prophet like one of the prophets. Herod said to his servants, This is John the Baptist, he whom I beheaded; he is risen from among the dead: therefore mighty 6 [Arabic, p. 70] works result from him. Mark 6:17 For Herod him self had sent and taken John, and cast him into prison, for the sake of Herodias his brother Philip's wife, whom he 7 had taken. Mark 6:18 And John said to Herod, You have no authority to take the wife of your 8 brother. Mark 6:19 And Herodias avoided him and wished to kill him; and she could not. 9 Mark 6:20 But Herod feared John, for he knew that he was a righteous man and a holy; and 10 he guarded him, and heard him much, and did, and obeyed him with gladness. Matthew 14:5 And he wished to kill him; but he feared the people, for they adhered to him as the 11 prophet. Mark 6:21 And there was a celebrated day, and Herod had made a feast for his great men on the day of his anniversary, and for the officers and for the chief men 12 of Galilee. Mark 6:22 And the daughter of Herodias came in and danced in the midst of the company, and pleased Herod and those that sat with him. And the king said to the 13 damsel, Ask of me what you will, and I will give it you. Mark 6:23 And he swore unto her, 14 Whatsoever you shall ask, I will give it you, to the half of my kingdom. Mark 6:24 And she went out, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask him? She said unto her, The 15 head of John the Baptist. Mark 6:25 And immediately she came in hastily to the king, and said unto him, I desire in this hour that you give me on a dish the head of John 16 the Baptist. Mark 6:26 And the king was exceeding sorry; but because of the oath and the 17 guests he did not wish to refuse her. Mark 6:27 But immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded that he should bring the head of John: and he went and cut off 18 the head of John in the prison, Mark 6:28 and brought it on a dish, and delivered it to the 19 damsel; and the damsel gave it to her mother. Mark 6:29 And his disciples heard, and came [Arabic, p. 71] and took his body, and buried it. Matthew 14:12b And they came and told Jesus what 20 had happened. Luke 9:9 And for this cause Herod said, I beheaded John: who 21 is this, of whom I hear these things. And he desired to see him. And Jesus, when he heard, removed thence in a boat to a waste place alone, to the other side of the sea of the Galilee of Tiberias.

22 Mark 6:33a And many saw them going, and knew them, and hastened by land from all the cities, and came there beforehand; John 6:2b for they saw the signs which he was doing on the 23, 24 sick. John 6:3 And Jesus went up into the mountain, and sat there with his disciples. John 6:4 And 25 the feast of the passover of the Jews was near. John 6:5a And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and saw great multitudes coming to him. Mark 6:34b And he was moved with compassion for them, for 26 they were like sheep that were without a shepherd. Luke 9:11b And he received them, and spoke to them concerning the kingdom of God, and healed those who had need of healing.

27 Matthew 14:15a And when the evening approached, his disciples came to him, and said unto 28 him, Mark 6:36 The place is desert, and the time is past; send away the multitudes of the people, that they may go to the towns and villages which are around us, and buy for 29 themselves bread; for they have nothing to eat. Matthew 14:16 But he said unto them, They have 30 no need to go away; give ye them what may be eaten. Matthew 14:17a They said unto him, We have not here enough. John 6:5b He said unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread that these may eat? 31, 32 John 6:6 And he said that proving him; and he knew what he was resolved to do. John 6:7 Philip said [Arabic, p. 72] unto him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread would not suffice them after 33 every one of them has taken a small amount. John 6:8 One of his disciples said unto 34 him (namely, Andrew the brother of Simon Cephas), John 6:9 Here is a lad having five loaves 35 of barley and two fishes: but this amount, what is it for all these? But will you that we go and buy for all the people what may be eaten? For we have no more 36 than these five loaves and the two fishes. And the grass was plentiful in that place. Jesus said unto them, Arrange all the people that they may sit down on the grass, 37 fifty people in a company. Mark 6:40 And the disciples did so. And all the people sat down 38 by companies, by hundreds and fifties. Matthew 14:18 Then Jesus said unto them, Bring hither 39 those five loaves and the two fishes. Mark 6:41a And when they brought him that, Jesus took the bread and the fish, and looked to heaven, and blessed, and divided, and gave to 40 his disciples to set before them; Matthew 14:19b and the disciples set for the multitudes the bread 41 and the fish; and they ate, all of them, and were satisfied. And when they were satisfied, he said unto his disciples, Gather the fragments that remain over, that nothing 42 be lost. John 6:13 And they gathered, and filled twelve baskets with fragments, being those that remained over from those which ate of the five barley loaves and the two 43 fishes. Matthew 14:21 And those people who ate were five thousand, besides the women and children. 44 [Arabic, p. 73] Mark 6:45 And straightway he pressed his disciples to go up into the ship, and that they should go before him unto the other side to Bethsaida, while he 45 him self should send away the multitudes. John 6:14 And those people who saw the sign which 46 Jesus did, said, Of a truth this is a prophet who has come into the world. John 6:15 And Jesus knew their purpose to come and take him, and make him a king; and he left them, and went up into the mountain alone for prayer.

47, 48 John 6:16 And when the nightfall was near, his disciples went down unto the sea, and sat in a boat, and came to the side of Capernaum. John 6:17 And the darkness came on, and Jesus 49 had not come to them. John 6:18 And the sea was stirred up against them by reason of a violent 50 wind that blew. Matthew 14:24 And the boat was distant from the land many furlongs, and they were much damaged by the waves, and the wind was against them.

 
 

1 Matthew 14:25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus came unto them, walking upon the 2 water, after they had rowed with difficulty about twenty-five or thirty furlongs. 3 Matthew 14:26 And when he drew near unto their boat, his disciples saw him walking on the water; and they were troubled, and supposed that it was a false appearance; and they cried 4 out from their fear. Matthew 14:27 But Jesus straightway spoke unto them, and said, Take courage, 5 for it is I; fear not. Matthew 14:28 Then Cephas answered and said unto him, My Lord, if it be you, 6 bid me to come unto you on the water. Matthew 14:29 And Jesus said unto him, Come. And 7 Cephas went down out of the boat, and walked on the water to come unto Jesus. Matthew 14:30 But [Arabic, p. 74] when he saw the wind strong, he feared, and was on the point of sinking; 8 and he lifted up his voice, and said, My Lord, save me. Matthew 14:31 And immediately our Lord stretched out his hand and took hold of him, and said unto him, 9 You of little faith, why did you doubt? Matthew 14:32 And when Jesus came near, he went up 10 unto them into the boat, he and Simon, and immediately the wind ceased. Matthew 14:33 And those that were in the ship came and worshipped him, and said, Truly you are the 11 Son of God. John 6:21b And straightway that ship arrived at the land which they made for. 12 And when they came out of the ship to the land, they marvelled greatly and were 13 perplexed in themselves: Mark 6:52 and they had not understood by means of that bread, because their heart was gross.

14 And when the people of that region knew of the arrival of Jesus, they made haste in all that land, and began to bring those that were diseased, borne in their 15 beds to the place where they heard that he was. Mark 6:56 And wheresoever the place might be which he entered, of the villages or the cities, they laid the sick in the markets, and sought of him that they might touch were it only the edge of his garment: and all that touched him were healed and lived.

16 John 6:22a And on the day after that, the multitude which was standing on the shore of the sea saw that there was there no other ship save that into which the disciples had 17 gone up, John 6:23 and that Jesus went not up into the ship with his disciples (but there were other ships from Tiberias near the place where they ate the bread when Jesus blessed 18 it): John 6:24 and when that multitude saw that Jesus was not there, nor yet his disciples, they 19 [Arabic, p. 75] went up into those ships, and came to Capernaum, and sought Jesus. John 6:25 And when they found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Our 20 Master, when did you come here? John 6:26 Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, You have not sought me because of your seeing the signs, but because of 21 your eating the bread and being satisfied. John 6:27 Serve not the food which perishes, but the food which abides in eternal life, which the Son of man will give unto you: him 22 has God the Father sealed. John 6:28 They said unto him, What shall we do that we may 23 work the work of God? John 6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of 24 God, that you believe in him whom he has sent. John 6:30 They said unto him, What sign have you done, that we may see, and believe in you? What have you wrought? 25 John 6:31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it was written, Bread from heaven 26 gave he them to eat. John 6:32 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not bread from 27 heaven; but my Father gave you the bread of truth from heaven. John 6:33 The bread of God is that which came down from heaven and gave the 28, 29 world life. John 6:34 They said unto him, Our Lord, give us at all times this bread. John 6:35 Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: whosoever comes unto me shall not hunger, 30 and whosoever believes in me shall not thirst for ever. John 6:36 But I said unto you, 31 You have seen me, and have not believed. John 6:37 And all that my Father has given to me comes unto me; and whosoever comes unto me I shall not cast him forth without. 32 John 6:38 I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but to do the will of him 33 that sent me; John 6:39 and this is the will of him that sent me, that I should lose nothing of 34 [Arabic, p. 76] that which he gave me, but raise it up in the last day. John 6:40 This is the will of my Father, that every one that sees the Son, and believes in him, should have eternal life; and I will raise him up in the last day.

35 John 6:41 The Jews therefore murmured against him because of his saying, I am the bread 36 which came down from heaven. John 6:42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? Then how says this man, I came down from 37, 38 heaven? John 6:43 Jesus answered and said unto them, Murmur not one with another. John 6:44 No man is able to come unto me, except the Father which sent me draw him; and I will 39 raise him up in the last day. John 6:45 It is written in the prophet, They shall all be the taught of God. Every one who hears from the Father now, and learns of him, comes 40 unto me. John 6:46 No man now sees the Father; but he that is from God, he it is that sees 41 the Father. John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever believes in me has eternal 42, 43 life. John 6:48 I am the bread of life. John 6:49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and 44 they died. John 6:50 This is the bread which came down from heaven, that a man may eat 45 of it, and not die. John 6:51 I am the bread of life which came down from heaven: and if a man eat of this bread he shall live for ever: and the bread which I shall give is my body, which I give for the life of the world.

46 John 6:52 The Jews therefore quarrelled one with another, and said, How can he give us 47 [Arabic, p. 77] his body that we may eat it? John 6:53 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, If you do not eat the body of the Son of man and drink his blood, you shall 48 not have life in yourselves. John 6:54 Whosoever eats of my body and drinks of my blood 49 has eternal life; and I will raise him up in the last day. John 6:55 My body truly is meat, and 50 my blood truly is drink. John 6:56 Whosoever eats my body and drinks my blood abides 51 in me, and I in him— John 6:57 as the living Father sent me, and I am alive because of the 52 Father; and whosoever eats me, he also shall live because of me. John 6:58 This is the bread which came down from heaven: and not according as your fathers ate the 53 manna, and died: whosoever eats of this bread shall live for ever. John 6:59 This he said in 54 the synagogue, when he was teaching in Capernaum. John 6:60 And many of his disciples, when they heard, said, This word is hard; who is he that can hear it?

1 John 6:61 And Jesus knew within himself that his disciples were murmuring because of 2 that, and he said unto them, Does this trouble you? John 6:62 What if you should see the Son 3 of man then ascend to the place where he was of old? John 6:63 It is the spirit that quickens, and the body profits nothing: the words that I speak unto you are spirit 4 and life. John 6:64 But there are some of you that do not believe. And Jesus knew beforehand who they were who should not believe, and who it was that should betray 5 him. John 6:65 And he said unto them, Therefore I said unto you, No man can come unto me, if that has not been given him by the Father.

6 [Arabic, p. 78] John 6:66 And because of this word many of his disciples turned back and walked 7 not with him. John 6:67 And Jesus said unto the twelve, Do ye haply also wish to 8 go away? John 6:68 Simon Cephas answered and said, My Lord, to whom shall we go? You 9 have the words of eternal life. John 6:69 And we have believed and known that you are the 10 Messiah, the Son of the living God. John 6:70 Jesus said unto them, Did not I choose you, 11 ye company of the twelve, and of you one is a devil? John 6:71 He said that because of Judas the son of Simon Iscariot; for he, being of the twelve, was purposed to betray him.

12 Luke 11:37 And while he was speaking, one of the Pharisees came asking of him that he 13 would eat with him: and he went in, and reclined to meat. Luke 11:38 And that Pharisee, when 14 he saw it, marvelled that he had not first cleansed himself before his eating. Luke 11:39 Jesus said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees wash the outside of the cup and the dish, and you think that you are cleansed; but your inside is full of injustice and wickedness.

15, 16 Luke 11:40 You of little mind, did not he that made the outside make the inside? Luke 11:41 Now give what you have in alms, and everything shall be clean unto you.

17, 18 Mark 7:1 And there came to him Pharisees and scribes, come from Jerusalem. Mark 7:2 And when they saw some of his disciples eating bread while they had not washed their hands, 19 they found fault. Mark 7:3 For all of the Jews and the Pharisees, if they wash not their 20 hands thoroughly, eat not; for they held to the ordinance of the elders. Mark 7:4 And they ate not what was bought from the market, except they washed it; and many other things did they keep of what they had received, such as the washing of cups, and 21 measures, and vessels of brass, and couches. Mark 7:5 And scribes and Pharisees asked him, [Arabic, p. 79] Why do your disciples not walk according to the ordinances of the elders, but 22 eat bread without washing their hands? Matthew 15:3 Jesus answered and said unto them, Why do ye also overstep the command of God by reason of your ordinance? 23 God said, Honour your father and your mother; and, Whosoever reviles his father and 24 his mother shall surely die. Mark 7:11 But ye say, If a man say to his father or to his mother, 25 What you receive from me is an offering,— Mark 7:12 and you suffer him not to do anything 26 for his father or his mother; Mark 7:13 and you make void and reject the word of God by reason of the ordinance that you have ordained and commanded, such as the washing 27 of cups and measures, and what resembles that you do much. Mark 7:8 And ye forsook 28 the command of God, and held to the ordinance of men. Mark 7:9 Do ye well to wrong 29 the command of God in order that you may establish your ordinance? Matthew 15:7 You hypocrites, well did Isaiah the prophet prophesy concerning you, and say,

30 Matthew 15:8 This people honours me with its lips;
But their heart is very far from me.
31 Matthew 15:9 But in vain do they fear me,
In that they teach the commands of men.

32 Mark 7:14 And Jesus called all the multitude, and said unto them, Hear me, all of you, and 33 understand: Mark 7:15 nothing without the man, which then enters him, is able to defile him; 34 but what goes out of him, that it is which defiles the man. Mark 7:16 He that has ears 35 that hear, let him hear. Matthew 15:12 Then his disciples drew near, and said unto him, Do you know 36 that the Pharisees which heard this word were angry? Matthew 15:13 He answered and said unto them, Every plant which my Father which is in heaven planted not shall be 37 [Arabic, p. 80] uprooted. Matthew 15:14 Let them alone; for they are blind leading blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both of them shall fall into a hollow.

38 And when Jesus entered the house from the multitude, Simon Cephas asked him, 39 and said unto him, My Lord, explain to us that parable. Mark 7:18b He said unto them, Do ye also thus not understand? Do you not know that everything that enters into the 40 man from without cannot defile him; Mark 7:19 because it enters not into his heart; it enters into his stomach only, and thence is cast forth in the cleansing which makes 41 clean all the food? Matthew 15:18 The thing which goes forth from the mouth of the man proceeds 42 from his heart, and it is that which defiles the man. Mark 7:21 From within the 43 heart of men proceed evil thoughts, Mark 7:22 fornication, adultery, theft, false witness, murder, injustice, wickedness, deceit, stupidity, evil eye, calumny, pride, foolishness: 44 Mark 7:23 these evils all of them from within proceed from the heart, and they are the things 45 which defile the man: Matthew 15:20b but if a man eat while he washes not his hands, he is not defiled.

46 And Jesus went out thence, and came to the borders of Tyre and Sidon. And he entered into a certain house, and desired that no man should know it; and 47 he could not be hid. Mark 7:25a But straightway a Canaanitish woman, whose daughter had an 48, 49 unclean spirit, heard of him. Mark 7:26a And that woman was a Gentile of Emesa of Syria. Matthew 15:22b And she came out after him, crying out, and saying, Have mercy upon me, my Lord, you 50 son of David; for my daughter is seized in an evil way by Satan. Matthew 15:23 And he answered [Arabic, p. 81] her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, and said, Send 51 her away: for she cries after us. Matthew 15:24 He answered and said unto them, I was 52 not sent except to the sheep that are gone astray of the house of Israel. Matthew 15:25 But she came and worshipped him, and said, My Lord, help me, have mercy upon me.

53 Matthew 15:26 Jesus said unto her, It is not seemly that the children's bread should be taken and 54 thrown to the dogs. Matthew 15:27 But she said, Yea, my Lord: the dogs also eat of the crumbs 55 that fall from their masters' tables, and live. Matthew 15:28a Then said Jesus unto her, O woman, 56 great is your faith: it shall be unto you as you have desired. Mark 7:29b Go then your way; and 57 because of this word, the devil is gone out of your daughter. Matthew 15:28b And her daughter was 58 healed in that hour. Mark 7:30 And that woman went away to her house, and found her daughter laid upon the bed, and the devil gone out of her. 

 

1 Mark 7:31 And Jesus went out again from the border s of Tyre and Sidon, and came to the 2 sea of Galilee, towards the borders of Decapolis. Mark 7:32 And they brought unto him one dumb and deaf, and entreated him that he would lay his hand upon him and heal 3 him. Mark 7:33 And he drew him away from the multitude, and went away alone, and spat 4 upon his fingers, and thrust them into his ears, and touched his tongue; Mark 7:34 and looked 5 to heaven, and sighed, and said unto him, Be opened. Mark 7:35 And in that hour his ears 6 were opened, and the bond of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke with ease. Mark 7:36 And Jesus charged them much that they should not tell this to any man: but the more 7 he charged them, the more they increased in publishing, and marvelled much, Mark 7:37 and [Arabic, p. 82] said, This man does everything well: he made the deaf to hear, and those that lacked speech to speak.

8, 9 John 4:4 And while he was passing through the land of Samaria, John 4:5 he came to one of the cities of the Samaritans, called Sychar, beside the field which Jacob gave to Joseph to 10 his son. John 4:6 And there was there a spring of water of Jacob's. And Jesus was fatigued from the exertion of the way, and sat at the spring. And the time was about the 11 sixth hour. John 4:7And a woman of Samaria came to draw water; and Jesus said unto 12 her, Give me water, that I may drink. John 4:8 And his disciples had entered into the city 13 to buy for themselves food. John 4:9 And that Samaritan woman said unto him, How do you, being a Jew, ask me to give you to drink, while I am a Samaritan woman? 14 John 4:10 (And the Jews mingle not with the Samaritans. ) Jesus answered and said unto her, If you knew the gift of God, and who this is that said unto you, Give me 15 to drink; you would ask him, and he would give you the water of life. John 4:11 That woman said unto him, My Lord, you have no bucket, and the well is deep: from 16 whence have you the water of life? John 4:12 Can it be that you are greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well, and drank from it, and his children, and his sheep? 17 John 4:13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Every one that drinks of this water shall thirst 18 again: John 4:14 but whosoever drinks of the water which I shall give him shall not thirst for ever: but the water which I shall give him shall be in him a spring of water springing 19 up unto eternal life. John 4:15 That woman said unto him, My Lord, give me of this water, that 20 I may not thirst again, neither come and draw water from here. John 4:16 Jesus said unto her, 21 [Arabic, p. 83] Go and call your husband, and come hither. John 4:17 She said unto him, I have no 22 husband. John 4:18 Jesus said to her, You said well, I have no husband: five husbands have you had, and this man whom you have now is not your husband; and 23 in this you said truly. John 4:19 That woman said unto him, My Lord, I perceive you to 24 be a prophet. John 4:20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and you say that in Jerusalem 25 is the place in which worship must be. John 4:21 Jesus said unto her, Woman, believe me, an hour comes, when neither in this mountain, nor yet in Jerusalem, shall you worship 26 the Father. John 4:22 You worship that which you know not: but we worship that which 27 we know: for salvation is of the Jews. John 4:23 But an hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: and the Father also 28 seeks such as these worshippers. John 4:24 For God is a Spirit: and they that worship him 29 must worship him in spirit and in truth. John 4:25 That woman said unto him, I know that 30 the Messiah comes: John 4:26 and when he has come, he will teach us everything. Jesus said unto her, I that speak unto you am he.

31 John 4:27 And while he was speaking, his disciples came; and they wondered how he would speak with a woman; but not one of them said unto him, What do you seek? Or, 32 What do you speak with her? John 4:28 And the woman left her waterpot, and went to the 33 city, and said to the people, John 4:29 Come, and see a man who told me all that ever I did: 34 perhaps then he is the Messiah. John 4:30 And people went out from the city, and came to 35 him. John 4:31 And in the mean while his disciples besought him, and said unto him, Our 36, 37 master, eat. John 4:32 And he said unto them, I have food to eat that you know not. John 4:33 And the disciples said among themselves, Can any one have brought him anything to eat? 38 John 4:34 Jesus said unto them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to accomplish 39 [Arabic, p. 84] his work. John 4:35 Said ye not that after four months comes the harvest? Behold, I therefore say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and behold the lands, 40 that they have become white, and the harvest is already come. John 4:36 And he that reaps receives his wages, and gathers the fruit of eternal life; and the sower and 41 the reaper rejoice together. John 4:37 For in this is found the word of truth, One sows, and 42 another reaps. John 4:38 And I sent you to reap that in which you have not laboured: others laboured, and you have entered on their labour.

43 John 4:39 And from that city many of the Samaritans believed in him because of the words 44 of that woman, who testified and said, He told me all that ever I did. John 4:40 And when those Samaritans came unto him, they besought him to abide with them; and he 45, 46 abode with them two days. John 4:41 And many believed in him because of his word; John 4:42 and they said to that woman, Now not because of your saying have we believed in him: we have heard and known that this truly is the Messiah, the Saviour of the world.

47, 48 John 4:43 And after two days Jesus went out thence and departed to Galilee. John 4:44 And Jesus 49 testified that a prophet is not honoured in his own city. John 4:45a And when he came to Galilee, the Galilæans received him. 

 

1 Luke 5:12 And when Jesus came to a certain village, there drew near to him a leper, and fell at his feet, and besought him, and said unto him, If you will, you are able to 2 cleanse me. Mark 1:41 And Jesus had mercy upon him, and stretched forth his hand, and 3 touched him, and said, I will cleanse you. Mark 1:42 And immediately his leprosy departed 4 from him, and he was cleansed. Mark 1:43 And he sternly charged him, and sent him out, 5 [Arabic, p. 85] and said unto him, Mark 1:44 See that you tell not any man: but go and show yourself to the priests, and offer an offering for your cleansing as Moses commanded 6 for their testimony. Mark 1:45a But he, when he went out, began to publish much, and spread abroad the news, so that Jesus could not enter into any of the cities openly, for the extent to which the report of him spread, but he remained without in a desert 7 place. Luke 5:15 And much people came unto him from one place and another, to hear 8 his word, and that they might be healed of their pains. Luke 5:16 And he used to withdraw from them into the desert, and pray.

9 And after that, was the feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

10 John 5:2 And there was in Jerusalem a place prepared for bathing, which was called in 11 Hebrew the House of Mercy, having five porches. John 5:3 And there were laid in them much people of the sick, and blind, and lame, and paralysed, waiting for the moving 12 of the water. John 5:4 And the angel from time to time went down into the place of bathing, and moved the water; and the first that went down after the moving 13 of the water, every pain that he had was healed. John 5:5 And a man was there who had a 14 disease for thirty-eight years. John 5:6 And Jesus saw this man laid, and knew that he had 15 been thus a long time; and he said unto him, Would you be made whole? John 5:7 That diseased one answered and said, Yea, my Lord, I have no man, when the water moves, to put me into the bathing-place; but when I come, another goes down before 16, 17 me. John 5:8 Jesus said unto him, Rise, take your bed, and walk. John 5:9 And immediately that man was healed; and he rose, and carried his bed, and walked.

18 John 5:10 And that day was a sabbath. And when the Jews saw that healed one, they said 19 unto him, It is a sabbath: you have no authority to carry your bed. John 5:11 And he answered and said unto them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take your bed, 20 [Arabic, p. 86] and walk. John 5:12 They asked him therefore, Who is this man that said unto you, 21 Take your bed, and walk? John 5:13 But he that was healed knew not who it was; for Jesus had removed from that place to another, because of the press of the great multitude 22 which was in that place. John 5:14 And after two days Jesus happened upon him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, you are whole: sin not again, lest there come upon 23 you what is worse than the first. John 5:15 And that man went, and said to the Jews that it 24 was Jesus that had healed him. John 5:16 And because of that the Jews persecuted Jesus and 25 sought to kill him, because he was doing this on the sabbath. John 5:17 And Jesus said unto 26 them, My Father works until now, and I also work. John 5:18 And because of this especially the Jews sought to kill him, not because he profaned the sabbath only; but for his saying also that God was his Father, and his making himself equal with God. 27 John 5:19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son cannot do anything of himself, but what he sees the Father do; what the Father does, 28 that the Son also does like him. John 5:20 The Father loves his Son, and everything that he does he shows him: and more than these works will he show him, that you 29 may marvel. John 5:21 And as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so the Son 30 also gives life to whomsoever he will. John 5:22 And the Father judges no man, but has 31 given all judgement unto the Son; John 5:23 that every man may honour the Son, as he honours the Father. And he that honours not the Son honours not the Father which 32 sent him. John 5:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever hears my word, and believes in him that sent me, has eternal life, and comes not into judgement, but passes from 33 [Arabic, p. 87] death unto life. John 5:25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, An hour shall come, and now is also, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and those 34 which hear shall live. John 5:26 And as the Father has life in himself, likewise he gave to 35 the Son also that he might have life in himself, John 5:27 and authority to do judgement also, 36 because he is the Son of man. John 5:28 Marvel not then at that: I mean the coming of the hour when all that are in the tombs shall hear his voice, and shall come forth: 37 John 5:29 those that have done good, to the resurrection of life; and those that have done evil deeds, to the resurrection of judgement.

38 John 5:30 I am not able of myself to do anything; but as I hear, I judge: and my judgement 39 is just; I seek not my own will, but the will of him that sent me. John 5:31 I bear witness 40 of myself, and so my witness is not true. John 5:32 It is another that bears witness 41 of me; and I know that the witness which he bears of me is true. John 5:33 You have sent 42 unto John, and he has borne witness of the truth. John 5:34 But not from man do I seek 43 witness; but I say that you may live. John 5:35 That was a lamp which shines and 44 gives light: and you were pleased to glory now in his light. John 5:36 But I have witness greater than that of John: the works which my Father has given me to accomplish, 45 those works which I do, bear witness of me, that the Father has sent me. John 5:37 And the Father which sent me, he has borne witness of me. You have neither heard his 46 voice at any time, nor seen his appearance. John 5:38 And his word abides not in you; because 47 in him whom he has sent ye do not believe. John 5:39 Search the scriptures, in which you rejoice 48 that you have eternal life; John 5:40 and they bear witness of me; and you do not wish to come to 49, 50 [Arabic, p. 88] me, that you may have eternal life. John 5:41 I seek not praise of men. John 5:42 But I know 51 you, that the love of God is not in you. John 5:43 I have come in the name of my Father, and you received me not; but if another come in his own name, that one will 52 ye receive. John 5:44 And how can you believe, while you receive praise one from another, and 53 praise from God, the One, you seek not? John 5:45 Can it be that you think that I will accuse you before the Father? You have one that accuses you, Moses, in whom you have 54 rejoiced. John 5:46 If you believed Moses, you would believe me also; Moses wrote of me. 55 John 5:47 And if you believed not his writings, how shall you believe my words?

 

1 Matthew 15:29 And Jesus departed thence, and came to the side of the sea of Galilee, and went 2 up into the mountain, and sat there. Matthew 15:30a And there came unto him great multitudes, having with them lame, and blind, and dumb, and maimed, and many others, and 3 they cast them at the feet of Jesus: John 4:45b for they had seen all the signs which he did in 4 Jerusalem, when they were gathered at the feast. Matthew 15:30b And he healed them all. Matthew 15:31 And those multitudes marvelled when they saw dumb men speak, and maimed men healed, and lame men walk, and blind men see; and they praised the God of Israel.

5 Matthew 15:32 And Jesus called his disciples, and said unto them, I have compassion on this multitude, because of their continuing with me three days, having nothing to eat; and to send them away fasting I am not willing, lest they faint in the way, Mark 8:3b some of them having 6 [Arabic, p. 89] come from far. Matthew 15:33 His disciples said unto him, Whence have we in the desert 7 bread wherewith to satisfy all this multitude? Matthew 15:34 Jesus said unto them, How 8 many loaves do you have? Matthew 15:35 They said unto him, Seven, and a few small fishes. And he 9 commanded the multitudes to sit down upon the ground; Matthew 15:36 and he took those seven loaves and the fish, and blessed, and broke, and gave to his disciples to set before 10 them; and the disciples set before the multitudes. Matthew 15:37 And they all ate, and were satisfied: and they took that which remained over of the fragments, seven basketfuls. 11 Matthew 15:38 And the people that ate were four thousand men, besides the women and children. 12 Matthew 15:39 And when the multitudes departed, he went up into the boat, and came to the borders of Magada.

13 And the Pharisees and Sadducees came to him, and began to seek a discussion with him. And they asked him to show them a sign from heaven, tempting him. 14 And Jesus sighed within himself, and said, What sign seeks this evil and adulterous generation? It seeks a sign, and it shall not be given a sign, except the sign 15 of Jonah the prophet. Mark 8:12b Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not be given a 16 sign. Mark 8:13 And he left them, and went up into the boat, and went away to that side.

17 Mark 8:14 And his disciples forgot to take with them bread, and there was not with them 18 in the boat, not even one loaf. Mark 8:15 And Jesus charged them, and said, Take heed, and guard yourselves from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees, and from the 19 leaven of Herod. Matthew 16:7 And they reflected within themselves that they had taken with them 20 no bread. Matthew 16:8 And Jesus knew, and said unto them, Why do you think within yourselves, O you of little faith, and are anxious, because you have no bread? Mark 8:17b Until now do you not perceive or understand? Is your heart yet hard? Mark 8:18 And do you have eyes, and yet see not? 22 [Arabic, p. 90] And do you have ears, and yet hear not? Mark 8:19 And do you not remember when I broke those five loaves for five thousand? And how many baskets full of broken 23 pieces you took up? They said, Twelve. Mark 8:20 He said unto them, And the seven also for four thousand: how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up? They 24 said, Seven. He said unto them, How have you not understood that I spoke not to you because of the bread, but that you should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees 25 and Sadducees? Matthew 16:12 Then they understood that he spoke, not that they should beware of the leaven of the bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees, which he called leaven.

26 Mark 8:22 And after that, he came to Bethsaida. And they brought to him a certain blind 27 man, and besought him that he would touch him. Mark 8:23 And he took the hand of that blind man, and led him out without the village, and spat in his eyes, and laid his 28 hand on him, and asked him, What do you see? Mark 8:24 And that blind man looked intently, 29 and said unto him, I see men as trees walking. Mark 8:25 And he placed his hand 30 again on his eyes; and they were restored, and he saw everything clearly. Mark 8:26 And he sent him to his house, and said, Do not enter even into the village, nor tell any man in the village.

31 Mark 8:27a And Jesus went forth, and his disciples, to the villages of Cæsarea Philippi. 32 Matthew 16:13b And while he was going in the way, and his disciples alone, he asked his disciples, 33 and said, What do men say of me that I am, the Son of man? Matthew 16:14 They said unto him, Some say, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the 34, 35 prophets. Matthew 16:15 He said unto them, And ye, what say ye that I am? Matthew 16:16 Simon Cephas answered 36 [Arabic, p. 91] and said, You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God. Matthew 16:17 Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah: flesh and 37 blood has not revealed it unto you, but my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 16:18 And I say unto you also, that you are Cephas, and on this rock will I build my church; and the 38 gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. Matthew 16:19 To you will I give the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and 39 whatsoever you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Matthew 16:20 And he sternly charged his disciples, and warned them that they should not tell any man concerning him, 40 that he was the Messiah. Matthew 16:21a And henceforth began Jesus to show to his disciples 41 that he was determined to go to Jerusalem, Mark 8:31b and suffer much, and be rejected of the elders, and of the chief priests, and of the scribes, and be killed, and on the 42 third day rise. Mark 8:32a And he was speaking plainly. Matthew 16:22 And Simon Cephas, as one grieved 43 for him, said, Far be you, my Lord, from that. Mark 8:33a And he turned, and looked upon 44 his disciples, and rebuked Simon, and said, Matthew 16:23b Get behind me, Satan: for you are a stumblingblock unto me: for you think not of what pertains to God, but of what pertains to men.

45 And Jesus called the multitudes with his disciples, and said unto them, Whosoever would come after me, let him deny himself, and take his cross every day, and 46 come after me. Mark 8:35 And whosoever would save his life shall lose it; and whosoever 47 loses his life for my sake, and for the sake of my gospel, shall save it. Luke 9:25 What shall 48 a man profit, if he gain all the world, and destroy his own life, or lose it? Mark 8:37 or what 49 [Arabic, p. 92] will a man give in ransom for his life? Mark 8:38 Whosoever shall deny me and my sayings in this sinful and adulterous generation, the Son of man also will 50 deny him, when he comes in the glory of his Father with his holy angels. Matthew 16:27 For the Son of man is about to come in the glory of his Father with his holy angels; and then shall he reward each man according to his works. 

 
 

1 Mark 9:1 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There be here now some standing that shall not taste death, until they see the kingdom of God come with strength, Matthew 16:28b and the Son of man who comes in his kingdom.

2 Matthew 17:1 And after six days Jesus took Simon Cephas, and James, and John his brother, 3 and brought them up into a high mountain, the three of them only. Luke 9:29a And while they 4 were praying, Jesus changed, and became after the fashion of another person; and his face shone like the sun, and his raiment was very white like the snow, and as 5 the light of lightning, so that nothing on earth can whiten like it. And there appeared 6 unto him Moses and Elijah talking to Jesus. Luke 9:31b And they thought that the time 7 of his decease which was to be accomplished at Jerusalem had come. Luke 9:32 And Simon and those that were with him were heavy in the drowsiness of sleep; and with effort they roused themselves, and saw his glory, and those two men that were standing with him. 8 [Arabic, p. 93] Luke 9:33a And when they began to depart from him, Simon said unto Jesus, My 9 Master, it is good for us to be here: Matthew 17:4b and if you will, we will make here three tabernacles; one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah; Luke 9:33c not knowing 10 what he said, because of the fear which took possession of them. And while he 11 was yet saying that, a bright cloud overshadowed them. Luke 9:34b And when they saw Moses 12 and Elijah that they had entered into that cloud, they feared again. Matthew 17:5b And a voice was heard out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, whom I have chosen; 13 hear ye therefore him. Luke 9:36a And when this voice was heard, Jesus was found alone. 14 Matthew 17:6 And the disciples, when they heard the voice, fell on their faces from the fear which 15 took hold of them. Matthew 17:7 And Jesus came and touched them and said, Arise, be not 16 afraid. Matthew 17:8 And they lifted up their eyes, and saw Jesus as he was.

17 Matthew 17:9 And when they went down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, and said unto them, Tell not what you have seen to any man, until the Son of man rise from 18 among the dead. And they kept the word within themselves, and told no man in 19 those days what they had seen. Mark 9:10b And they reflected among themselves, What is this 20 word which he spoke unto us, I, when I am risen from among the dead? And his disciples asked him, and said, What is that which the scribes say, then, that Elijah 21 must first come? Mark 9:12 He said unto them, Elijah comes first to set in order everything, [Arabic, p. 94] and as it was written of the Son of man, that he should suffer many things, 22 and be rejected. Mark 9:13 But I say unto you, that Elijah has come, and they knew him not, and have done unto him whatsoever they desired, as it was written of him. 23, 24 Matthew 17:12b In like manner the Son of man is to suffer of them. Matthew 17:13 Then understood the disciples that he spoke unto them concerning John the Baptist.

25 Mark 9:14 And on that day whereon they came down from the mountain, there met him a multitude of many people standing with his disciples, and the scribes were discussing 26 with them. Mark 9:15 And the people, when they saw Jesus, were perplexed, and in the 27 midst of their joy hastened and saluted him. Luke 13:31 And on that day came certain of the Pharisees, and said unto him, Get you out, and go hence; for Herod seeks 28 to kill you. Luke 13:32 Jesus said unto them, Go ye and say to this fox, Behold, I am casting out demons, and I heal today and tomorrow, and on the third day I am perfected. 29 Luke 13:33 Nevertheless I must be watchful today and tomorrow, and on the last day I shall depart; for it cannot be that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem.

30 And after that, there came to him a man from that multitude, and fell upon his knees, and said unto him, I beseech you, my Lord, look upon my son; Luke 9:38b he is my 31 only child: and the spirit comes upon him suddenly. A lunacy has come upon 32 him, and he meets with evils. Mark 9:18a And when it comes upon him, it beats him about; 33 and he foams, and gnashes his teeth, and wasts; and many times it has thrown him into the water and into the fire to destroy him, and it hardly leaves him after 34 [Arabic, p. 95] bruising him. Matthew 17:16 And I brought him near to your disciples, and they could 35 not heal him. Matthew 17:17 Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, till when shall I be with you? And till when shall I bear with you? Bring your son 36 hither. Mark 9:20 And he brought him unto him: and when the spirit saw him, immediately 37 it beat him about; and he fell upon the ground, and was raging and foaming. Mark 9:21 And Jesus asked his father, How long is the time during which he has been thus? He 38 said unto him, From his youth until now. Mark 9:22b But, my Lord, help me wherein you 39 can, and have mercy upon me. Mark 9:23 Jesus said unto him, If you can believe! All 40 things are possible to him that believes. Mark 9:24 And immediately the father of the child 41 cried out, weeping, and said, I believe, my Lord; help my lack of faith. Mark 9:25 And when Jesus saw the hastening of the people, and their coming at the sound, he rebuked that unclean spirit, and said to it, You dumb spirit that speaks not, I command 42 you, come out of him, and enter not again into him. Mark 9:26 And that spirit, devil, cried out much, and bruised him, and came out; and that child fell as one dead, and 43 many thought that he had died. But Jesus took him by his hand, and raised him 44 up, and gave him to his father; and that child was healed from that hour. And the people all marvelled at the greatness of God.

45 Mark 9:28 And when Jesus entered into the house, his disciples came, and asked him 46 privately, and said unto him, Why were we not able to heal him? Matthew 17:20 Jesus said unto [Arabic, p. 96] them, Because of your unbelief. Verily I say unto you, If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, Remove hence; 47 and it shall remove; and nothing shall overcome you. Mark 9:29b But it is impossible to cast out this kind by anything except by fasting and prayer.

48 Mark 9:30 And when he went forth thence, they passed through Galilee: and he would not 49 that any man should know it. And he taught his disciples, and said unto them, 50 Mark 9:31b Keep ye these sayings in your ears and your hearts: for the Son of man is to be delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and when he is killed, he 51 shall rise on the third day. Luke 9:45 But they knew not the word which he spoke unto them, for it was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it; and they feared to 52 ask him about this word. Matthew 17:23b And they were exceeding sorrowful.

 
 

1 Luke 9:46 And in that day this thought presented itself to his disciples, and they said, which 2 haply should be the great est among them. Mark 9:33 And when they came to Capernaum, and entered into the house, Jesus said unto them, What were ye considering in the 3 way among yourselves? Mark 9:34a And they were silent because they had considered that matter.

4 Matthew 17:24b And when Simon went forth without, those that received two dirhams for the tribute came to Cephas, and said unto him, Does your master not give his two 5 dirhams? He said unto them, Yea. Matthew 17:25 And when Cephas entered the house, Jesus anticipated him, and said unto him, What do you think, Simon? The kings of the earth, from whom do they receive custom and tribute? From their sons, or from 6 [Arabic, p. 97] strangers? Matthew 17:26 Simon said unto him, From strangers. Jesus said unto him, Children then are free. Simon said unto him, Yea. Jesus said unto him, 7 Give also unto them, like the stranger. Matthew 17:27 But, lest it trouble them, go to the sea, and cast a hook; and the first fish that comes up, open its mouth, and you shall find a stater: take therefore that, and give for me and you.

8 Matthew 18:1 And in that hour came the disciples to Jesus, and said unto him, Who, do you think 9, is greater in the kingdom of heaven? And Jesus knew the thought of their heart, and called a child, and set him in the midst, and took him in his arms, and 10 said unto them, Matthew 18:3 Verily I say unto you, If you do not return, and become as children, 11 you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven. Luke 9:48 Every one that shall receive in my name such as this child has received me: Mark 9:37b and whosoever receives me receives 12 not me, but him that sent me. Luke 9:48c And he who is little in your company, the same 13 shall be great. Matthew 18:6 But whosoever shall injure one of these little ones that believe in me, it were better for him that a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and he should be drowned in the depths of the sea.

14 Luke 9:49 John answered and said, Our Master, we saw one casting out devils in your name; 15 and we prevented him, because he followed not you with us. Mark 9:39 Jesus said unto them, Prevent him not; for no man does powers in my name, and can hasten to speak evil 16, 17 of me. Luke 9:50b Every one who is not in opposition to you is with you. Woe unto the world [Arabic, p. 98] because of trials! but woe unto that man by whose hand the trials come! 18 Matthew 18:8 If your hand or your foot injure you, cut it off, and cast it from you; for it is better for you to enter into life being halt or maimed, and not that you should have two hands or two feet, and fall into the hell of fire that burns for ever; 19, 20 Mark 9:44 where their worm dies not, and their fire is not quenched. Matthew 18:9a And if your eye seduce 21 you, pluck it out, and cast it from you; Mark 9:47b for it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, than that you should have two eyes, and fall into the 22, 23 fire of Gehenna; Mark 9:48 where their worm dies not, and their fire is not quenched. Mark 9:49 Every 24 one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt. Mark 9:50a How good 25 is salt! But if the salt also be tasteless, wherewith shall it be salted? It is fit neither for the land nor for dung, but they cast it out. He that has ears to hear, let him 26 hear. Mark 9:50c Have ye salt in yourselves, and be in peace one with another.

27 Mark 10:1 And he arose from thence, and came to the borders of Judæa beyond Jordan: and there went unto him there great multitudes, and he healed them; and he taught 28 them also, according to his custom. Mark 10:2 And the Pharisees came unto him, tempting 29 him, and asking him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? Mark 10:3 He said, What 30 did Moses command you? Mark 10:4 They said, Moses made it allowable for us, saying, Whosoever 31 will, let him write a writing of divorcement, and put away his wife. Mark 10:5a Jesus answered and said unto them, Matthew 19:4 Have ye not read, He that made them from the beginning 32 made them male and female, and said, Matthew 19:5 For this reason shall the man leave his father [Arabic, p. 99] and his mother, and cleave to his wife; and they both shall be one body? 33 Matthew 19:6 So then they are not two, but one body; the thing, then, which God has 34 joined together, let no man put asunder. Matthew 19:7 And those Pharisees said unto him, Why did Moses consent that a man should give a writing of divorcement and put her away? 35 Matthew 19:8 Jesus said unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts gave you leave 36 to divorce your wives; but in the beginning it was not so. Matthew 19:9a I say unto you, Whosoever puts away his wife without fornication, and marries another, has exposed 37 her to adultery. Mark 10:10 And his disciples, when he entered the house, asked him again 38 about that. Mark 10:11 And he said unto them, Every one who puts away his wife, and 39 marries another, has exposed her to adultery. Mark 10:12 And any woman that leaves her husband, and becomes another's, has committed adultery. Matthew 19:9b And whosoever marries 40 her that is divorced has committed adultery. Matthew 19:10 And his disciples said unto him, If there be between the man and the woman such a case as this, it is not good for 41 a man to marry. Matthew 19:11 He said unto them, Not every man can endure this saying, except 42 him to whom it is given. Matthew 19:12 There are eunuchs which from their mother's womb were born so; and there are eunuchs which through men became eunuchs; and there are eunuchs which made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He that is able to be content, let him be content.

43 Matthew 19:13a Then they brought to him children, that he should lay his hand upon them, and 44 pray: and his disciples were rebuking those that were bringing them. And Jesus saw, and it was distressing to him; and he said unto them, Suffer the children to [Arabic, p. 100] come unto me, and prevent them not; for those that are like these have 45 the kingdom of God. Mark 10:15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever receives not the 46 kingdom of God as this child, shall not enter it. Mark 10:16 And he took them in his arms, and laid his hand upon them, and blessed them.

 
 

1, 2 Luke 15:1 And there came unto him publicans and sinners to hear his word. Luke 15:2 And the scribes and the Pharisees murmured, and said, This man receives sinners, and 3 eats with them. Luke 15:3 And Jesus, when he beheld their murmuring, spoke unto them 4 this parable: Luke 15:4 What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if one of them were lost, would not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go and seek the straying one 5 till he found it? Matthew 18:13 Verily I say unto you, When he finds it, he will rejoice over it 6 more than over the ninety-nine that went not astray; Luke 15:5b and bear it on his shoulders, and bring it to his house, and call his friends and neighbours, Luke 15:6 and say unto them, 7 Rejoice with me, since I have found my straying sheep. Matthew 18:14 So your Father which is in heaven wills not that one of these little ones that have strayed should perish, 8 and he seeks for them repentance. Luke 15:7 I say unto you, Thus there shall be rejoicing in heaven over one sinner that repents, more than over ninety-nine righteous persons that do not need repentance.

9 Luke 15:8 And what woman having ten drachmas would lose one of them, and not light a 10 lamp, and sweep the house, and seek it with care till she found it; Luke 15:9 and when she found it, call her friends and neighbours, and say unto them, Rejoice with me, as I 11 have found my drachma that was lost? Luke 15:10 I say unto you, Thus there shall be joy [Arabic, p. 101] before the angels of God over the one sinner that repents, more than over the ninety-nine righteous persons that do not need repentance.

12, 13 Luke 15:11 And Jesus spoke unto them also another parable: Luke 15:12 A man had two sons: and the younger son said unto him, My father, give me my portion that belongs to 14 me of your goods. Luke 15:13 And he divided between them his property. And after a few days the younger son gathered everything that belonged to him, and went into a 15 far country, and there squandered his property by living prodigally. Luke 15:14 And when he had exhausted everything he had, there occurred a great dearth in that country. 16 Luke 15:15 And when he was in want, he went and joined himself to one of the people of a city 17 of that country; and that man sent him into the field to feed the swine. Luke 15:16 And he used to long to fill his belly with the carob that those swine were eating: and no man 18 gave him. Luke 15:17 And when he returned unto himself, he said, How many hired servants now in my father's house have bread enough and to spare, while I here perish with 19 hunger! Luke 15:18 I will arise and go to my father's house, and say unto him, My father, Luke 15:19 I 20 have sinned in heaven and before you, and am not worthy now to be called your 21 son: make me as one of your hired servants. Luke 15:20 And he arose, and came to his father. But his father saw him while he was at a distance, and was moved with compassion 22 for him, and ran, and fell on his breast, and kissed him. Luke 15:21 And his son said unto him, My father, I have sinned in heaven and before you, and am not worthy to be 23 called your son. Luke 15:22 His father said unto his servants, Bring forth a stately robe, and put 24 it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and put on him shoes on his feet: and bring and 25 slay a fatted ox, that we may eat and make merry: Luke 15:24 for this my son was dead, and is 26 [Arabic, p. 102] alive; and was lost, and is found. Luke 15:25 And they began to be merry. Now his elder son was in the field; and when he came and drew near to the house, 27 he heard the sound of many singing. Luke 15:26 And he called one of the lads, and asked him 28 what this was. Luke 15:27 He said unto him, Your brother has arrived; and your father has 29 slain a fatted ox, since he has received him safe and sound. Luke 15:28 And he was angry, 30 and would not enter; so his father went out, and besought him to enter. Luke 15:29 And he said to his father, How many years do I serve you in bondage, and I never transgressed a commandment of yours; and you have never given me a kid, that I might 31 make merry with my friends? Luke 15:30 but this your son, when he had squandered your 32 property with harlots, and come, you have slain for him a fatted ox. Luke 15:31 His father said unto him, My son, you are at all times with me, and everything I have is 33 yours. Luke 15:32 It behooves you to rejoice and make merry, since this your brother was dead, and is alive; and was lost, and is found.

34 Luke 16:1 And he spoke a parable unto his disciples: There was a rich man, and he had 35 a steward; and he was accused to him that he had squandered his property. Luke 16:2 So his lord called him, and said unto him, What is this that I hear regarding you? Give me the account of your stewardship; for it is now impossible that you should 36 be a steward for me. Luke 16:3 The steward said within himself, What shall I do, seeing that my lord takes from me the stewardship? To dig I am not able; and to beg I 37 am ashamed. Luke 16:4 I know what I will do, that, when I go out of the stewardship, they 38 may receive me into their houses. Luke 16:5 And he called one after another of his lord's 39 debtors, and said to the first, How much do you owe my lord? Luke 16:6 He said unto him, An hundred portions of oil. He said unto him, Take your writing, and sit down, and write 40 quickly fifty portions. Luke 16:7 And he said to the next, And you, how much do you owe my lord? He said unto him, An hundred cors of wheat. He said unto him, Take 41 [Arabic, p. 103] your writing, and sit down, and write eighty cors. Luke 16:8 And our lord commended the sinful steward because he had done a wise deed; for the children 42 of this world are wiser than the children of the light in this their age. Luke 16:9 And I also say unto you, Make unto yourselves friends with the wealth of this unrighteousness; 43 so that, when it is exhausted, they may receive you into their tents for ever. Luke 16:10 He who is faithful in a little is faithful also in much: and he who is unrighteous in a 44 little is unrighteous also in much. Luke 16:11 If then in the wealth of unrighteousness you were 45 not trustworthy, who will entrust you with the truth? Luke 16:12 If you are not found faithful in what does not belong to you, who will give you what belongs to you?

 

1 Matthew 18:23 Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king, who would make a 2 reckoning with his servants. Matthew 18:24 And when he began to make it, they brought to him one who 3 owed him ten talents. Matthew 18:25 And because he had not wherewith to pay, his lord ordered that he should be sold, he, and his wife, and children, and all that he 4 had, and payment be made. Matthew 18:26 So that servant fell down and worshipped him, and said unto him, My lord, have patience with me, and I shall pay you everything. 5 Matthew 18:27 And the lord of that servant had compassion, and released him, and forgave him his 6 debt. Matthew 18:28 And that servant went out, and found one of his fellow- servants, who owed him [Arabic, p. 104] a hundred pence; and he took him, and dealt severely with him, and said 7 unto him, Give me what you owe. Matthew 18:29 So the fellow-servant fell down at his 8 feet, and besought him, and said, Grant me respite, and I will pay you. Matthew 18:30 And he would not; but took him, and cast him into prison, till he should give him his debt. 9 Matthew 18:31 And when their fellow- servants saw what happened, it distressed them much; and 10 they came and told their lord of all that had taken place. Matthew 18:32 Then his lord called him, and said unto him, You wicked servant, all that debt I forgave you, because 11 you besought me: Matthew 18:33 was it not then incumbent on you also to have mercy on your 12 fellow-servant, as I had mercy on you? Matthew 18:34 And his lord became angry, and delivered 13 him to the scourgers, till he should pay all that he owed. Matthew 18:35 So shall my Father which is in heaven do unto you, if one forgive not his brother his wrong conduct from 14 his heart. Luke 17:3 Take heed within yourselves: if your brother sin, rebuke him; and if he 15 repent, forgive him. Luke 17:4 And if he act wrongly towards you seven times in a day, and on that day return seven times unto you, and say, I repent towards you; forgive him. 16 Matthew 18:15 And if your brother act wrongly towards you, go and reprove him between you and 17 him alone: if he hear you, you have gained your brother. Matthew 18:16 But if he hear you not, take with you one or two, and so at the mouth of two or three every saying shall 18 be established. Matthew 18:17 And if he listen not to these also, tell the congregation; and if he listen not even to the congregation, let him be unto you as a publican and a Gentile. 19 Matthew 18:18 Verily I say unto you, All that you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: 20 and what ye loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Matthew 18:19 I say unto you also, If two of you agree on earth to ask, everything shall be granted them from my Father 21 [Arabic, p. 105] which is in heaven. Matthew 18:20 For where two or three are gathered in my name, there 22 am I among them. Matthew 18:21 Then Cephas drew near to him, and said unto him, My Lord, how many times, if my brother act wrongly towards me, should I forgive him? 23 until seven times? Matthew 18:22 Jesus said unto him, I say not unto you, Until seven; but, Until seventy 24 times seven, seven. Luke 12:47 And the servant that knows his lord's will, and makes not 25 ready for him according to his will, shall meet with much punishment; Luke 12:48 but he that knows not, and does something for which he merits punishment, shall meet with slight punishment. Every one to whom much has been given, much shall be asked of him; and he that has had much committed to him, much shall be 26 required at his hand. Luke 12:49 I came to cast fire upon the earth; and I would that it had 27 been kindled already. Luke 12:50 And I have a baptism to be baptized with, and greatly am 28 I straitened till it be accomplished. Matthew 18:10 See that you despise not one of these little ones that believe in me. Verily I say unto you, Their angels at all times see the 29 face of my Father which is in heaven. Matthew 18:11 The Son of man came to save the thing which was lost.

30 John 7:1 And after that, Jesus walked in Galilee; and he did not like to walk in Judæa, 31 because the Jews sought to kill him. Luke 13:1 And there came people who told him of 32 the Galilæans, those whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. Luke 13:2 Jesus answered and said unto them, Do ye imagine that those Galilæans were sinners 33 more than all the Galilæans, so that this thing has come upon them? Luke 13:3 Nay. Verily I say unto you now, that you shall all also, if you repent not, likewise perish. 34 Luke 13:4 Or perchance those eighteen on whom the palace fell in Siloam, and slew them, do ye imagine that they were to be condemned more than all the people that dwell 35 [Arabic, p. 106] in Jerusalem? Nay. Luke 13:5 Verily I say unto you, If you do not all repent, you shall perish like them.

36 Luke 13:6 And he spoke unto them this parable: A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; 37 and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none. Luke 13:7 So he said to the husbandman, Lo, three years do I come and seek fruit on this fig tree, and find 38 none: cut it down; why does it render the ground unoccupied? Luke 13:8 The husbandman said unto him, My lord, leave it this year also, that I may dig about it, and dung 39 it; Luke 13:9 then if it bear fruit—! And if not, then cut it down in the coming year.

40 Luke 13:10 And when Jesus was teaching on the sabbath day in one of the synagogues, 41 there was there a woman that had a spirit of disease eighteen years; Luke 13:11 and she was 42 bowed down, and could not straighten herself at all. Luke 13:12 And Jesus saw her, and called 43 her, and said unto her, Woman, be loosed from your disease. Luke 13:13 And he put his hand 44 upon her; and immediately she was straightened, and praised God. Luke 13:14 And the chief of the synagogue answered with anger, because Jesus had healed on a sabbath, and said unto the multitudes, There are six days in which work ought to be done; 45 come in them and be healed, and not on the sabbath day. Luke 13:15 But Jesus answered and said unto him, You hypocrites, does not each of you on the sabbath day loose 46 his ox or his ass from the manger, and go and water it? Luke 13:16 Ought not this woman, who is a daughter of Abraham, and whom the devil has bound eighteen years, 47 to be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day? Luke 13:17 And when he said this, they were all put to shame, those standing, who were opposing him: and all the people were pleased with all the wonders that proceeded from his hand.

 
 

1, 2 [Arabic, p. 107] John 7:2 And at that time the feast of tabernacles of the Jews drew near. John 7:3 So the brethren of Jesus said unto him, Remove now hence, and go to Judæa, that 3 your disciples may see the deeds that you do. John 7:4 For no man does a thing secretly 4 and wishes to be apparent. John 7:5 If you do this, show yourself to the world. For 5 up to this time not even the brethren of Jesus believed on him. John 7:6 Jesus said unto them, My time till now has not arrived; but as for you, your time is always ready. 6 John 7:7 It is not possible for the world to hate you; but me it hates, for I bear witness 7 against it, that its deeds are evil. John 7:8 As for you, go ye up unto this feast: but I go 8 not up now to this feast; for my time has not yet been completed. John 7:9 He said this, and remained behind in Galilee.

9 But when his brethren went up unto the feast, he journeyed from Galilee, and 10 came to the borders of Judæa, to the country beyond Jordan; Matthew 19:2 and there came after 11 him great multitudes, and he healed them all there. John 7:10b And he went out, and proceeded 12 to the feast, not openly, but as one that conceals himself. John 7:11 And the Jews sought him 13 at the feast, and said, In what place is this man? John 7:12 And there occurred much murmuring there in the great multitude that came to the feast, on his account. For 14 some said, He is good: and others said, Nay, but he leads the people astray. John 7:13 But no man spoke of him openly for fear of the Jews.

15 [Arabic, p. 108] John 7:14 But when the days of the feast of tabernacles were half over, Jesus went 16 up to the temple, and taught. John 7:15 And the Jews wondered, and said, How does 17 this man know writing, seeing he has not learned? John 7:16 Jesus answered and said, My doctrine 18 is not mine, but his that sent me. John 7:17 Whoever wishes to do his will understands my doctrine, whether it be from God, or whether I speak of my own accord. 19 John 7:18 Whosoever speaks of his own accord seeks praise for himself; but whosoever seeks praise for him that sent him, he is true, and unrighteousness in his heart 20 there is none. John 7:19 Did not Moses give you the law, and no man of you keeps the 21 law? John 7:20 Why do you seek to kill me? The multitude answered and said unto him, You 22 have demons: who seeks to kill you? John 7:21 Jesus answered and said unto them, I did 23 one deed, and you all marvel because of this. John 7:22 Moses has given you circumcision (not because it is from Moses, but it is from the fathers); and you on the sabbath 24 circumcise a man. John 7:23 And if a man is circumcised on the sabbath day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are you angry at me, because I healed on the sabbath 25 day the whole man? John 7:24 Judge not with hypocrisy, but judge righteous judgement.

26 John 7:25 And some people from Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to slay? 27 John 7:26 And lo, he discourses with them openly, and they say nothing unto him. Think 28 you that our elders have learned that this is the Messiah indeed? John 7:27 But this man is known whence he is; and the Messiah, when he comes, no man knows whence 29 he is. John 7:28 So Jesus lifted up his voice as he taught in the temple, and said, You both know me, and know whence I am; and of my own accord am I not come, but he 30 [Arabic, p. 109] that sent me is true, he whom you know not: John 7:29 but I know him; for I am 31 from him, and he sent me. John 7:30 And they sought to seize him: and no man 32 laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come. John 7:31 But many of the multitude believed on him; and they said, The Messiah, when he comes, can it be that he will do more than these signs that this man does?

33 Luke 12:13 And a man of that multitude said unto our Lord, Teacher, say to my brother 34 that he divide with me the inheritance. Luke 12:14 Jesus said unto him, Man, who is it that 35 appointed me over you as a judge and divider? Luke 12:15 And he said unto his disciples, Take heed within yourselves of all inordinate desire; for it is not in abundance of 36 possessions that life shall be. Luke 12:16 And he gave them this parable: The ground of a 37 rich man brought forth abundant produce: Luke 12:17 and he pondered within himself, and 38 said, What shall I do, since I have no place to store my produce? Luke 12:18 And he said, I will do this: I will pull down the buildings of my barns, and build them, and make 39 them greater; and store there all my wheat and my goods. Luke 12:19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have much goods laid by for many years; take your ease, eat, 40 drink, enjoy yourself. Luke 12:20 God said unto him, O you of little intelligence, this night shall your soul be taken from you; and this that you have prepared, whose shall it 41 be? Luke 12:21 So is he that lays up treasures for himself, and is not rich in God.

42 Mark 10:17 And while Jesus was going in the way, there came near to him a young man of the rulers, and fell on his knees, and asked him, and said, Good Teacher, what is 43 it that I must do that I may have eternal life? Mark 10:18 Jesus said unto him, Why do you call 44 me good, while there is none good but the one, even God? Mark 10:19a You know the commandments. 45 If you would enter into life, keep the commandments. The young [Arabic, p. 110] man said unto him, Which of the commandments? Jesus said unto him, 46 Mark 10:19b You shall not commit adultery, You shall not steal, You shall not kill, You shall not bear false witness, You shall not do injury, Honour your father 47 and your mother: and, Love your neighbour as yourself. That young man said unto 48 him, All these have I kept from my youth: what then is it that I lack? Mark 10:21a And Jesus 49 looked intently at him, and loved him, and said unto him, Matthew 19:21b If you would be perfect, what you lack is one thing: go away and sell everything that you have, and give to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven: and take your 50 cross, and follow me. And that young man frowned at this word, and went away 51 feeling sad; for he was very rich. And when Jesus saw his sadness, he looked towards his disciples, and said unto them, How hard it is for them that have possessions to enter the kingdom of God!

 
 

1 Matthew 19:23 Verily I say unto you, It is difficult for a rich man to enter the kingdom of 2 heaven. Matthew 19:24 And I say unto you also, that it is easier for a camel to enter the eye of 3 a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. Mark 10:24 And the disciples were wondering at these sayings. And Jesus answered and said unto them again, My children, how hard it is for those that rely on their possessions to enter the 4 kingdom of God! Mark 10:26 And those that were listening wondered more, and said among 5 themselves, being agitated, Who, do you think, can be saved? Mark 10:27 And Jesus looked at them intently, and said unto them, With men this is not possible, but with God it is: 6 [Arabic, p. 111] it is possible for God to do everything. Simon Cephas said unto him, Lo, we have left everything, and followed you; what is it, do you think, that we 7 shall have? Matthew 19:28 Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, You that have followed me, in the new world, when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, you also 8 shall sit on twelve thrones, and shall judge the twelve tribes of Israel. Mark 10:29b Verily I say unto you, No man leaves houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or kinsfolk, or lands, because of the kingdom of God, or for 9 my sake, and the sake of my gospel, Luke 18:30 who shall not obtain many times as much in this 10 time, and in the world to come inherit eternal life: Mark 10:30b and now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecution; 11 and in the world to come everlasting life. Mark 10:31 Many that are first shall be last, and that are last shall be first.

12 Luke 16:14 And when the Pharisees heard all this, because of their love for wealth they 13 scoffed at him. Luke 16:15 And Jesus knew what was in their hearts, and said unto them, You are they that justify yourselves before men; while God knows your hearts: the thing that is lofty with men is base before God.

14 Luke 16:19 And he began to say, A certain man was rich, and wore silk and purple, and enjoyed 15 himself every day in splendour: Luke 16:20 and there was a poor man named Lazarus, and 16 he was cast down at the door of the rich man, Luke 16:21 afflicted with sores, and he longed to fill [Arabic, p. 112] his belly with the crumbs that fell from the table of that rich man; yea, 17 even the dogs used to come and lick his sores. Luke 16:22 And it happened that that poor man died, and the angels conveyed him into the bosom of Abraham: and the 18 rich man also died, and was buried. Luke 16:23 And while he was being tormented in Hades, 19 he lifted up his eyes from afar, and saw Abraham with Lazarus in his bosom. Luke 16:24 And he called with a loud voice, and said, My father Abraham, have mercy upon me, and send Lazarus to wet the tip of his finger with water, and moisten my tongue 20 for me; for, behold, I am burned in this flame. Luke 16:25 Abraham said unto him, My son, remember that you received your good things in your life, and Lazarus his afflictions: 21 but now, behold, he is at rest here, and you are tormented. Luke 16:26 And in addition to all this, there is between us and you a great abyss placed, so that they that would cross unto you from hence cannot, nor yet from thence do they cross unto 22 us. Luke 16:27 He said unto him, Then I beseech you, my father, to send him to my father's 23 house; Luke 16:28 for I have five brethren; let him go, that they also sin not, and come to 24 the abode of this torment. Luke 16:29 Abraham said unto him, They have Moses and the 25 prophets; let them hear them. Luke 16:30 He said unto him, Nay, my father Abraham: but 26 let a man from the dead go unto them, and they will repent. Luke 16:31 Abraham said unto him, If they listen neither to Moses nor to the prophets, neither if a man from the dead rose would they believe him.

27 Matthew 20:1 The kingdom of heaven is like a man that is a householder, which went out early 28 in the morning to hire labourers for his vineyard. Matthew 20:2 And he agreed with the labourers on 29 one penny a day for each labourer, and he sent them into his vineyard. Matthew 20:3 And he went 30 [Arabic, p. 113] out in three hours, and saw others standing in the market idle. Matthew 20:4 He said unto them, Go ye also into my vineyard, and what is right I will pay you. 31 Matthew 20:5 And they went. And he went out also at the sixth and the ninth hour, and did likewise, 32 and sent them. Matthew 20:6 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle. He said unto them, Why are you standing the whole day idle? 33 Matthew 20:7 They said unto him, Because no one has hired us. He said unto them, Go ye 34 also into the vineyard, and what is right you shall receive. Matthew 20:8 So when evening came, the lord of the vineyard said unto his steward, Call the labourers, and pay them 35 their wages; and begin with the later ones, and end with the former ones. Matthew 20:9 And 36 those of eleven hours came, and received each a penny. Matthew 20:10 When therefore the first came, they supposed that they should receive something more; and they also 37 received each a penny. Matthew 20:11 And when they received it, they spoke angrily against the 38 householder, and said, Matthew 20:12 These last worked one hour, and you have made them equal 39 with us, who have suffered the heat of the day, and its burden. Matthew 20:13 He answered and said unto one of them, My friend, I do you no wrong: was it not for a penny that 40 you bargained with me? Matthew 20:14 Take what is yours, and go your way; for I wish to 41 give this last as I have given you. Matthew 20:15 Or am I not entitled to do with what is mine 42 what I choose? Matthew 20:16 Or is your eye perchance evil, because I am good? Thus shall the last ones be first, and the first last. The called are many, and the chosen are few.

43 Luke 14:1 And when Jesus entered into the house of one of the chiefs of the Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day, and they were watching him to see what he would 44, 45 do, Luke 14:2 and there was before him a man which had the dropsy, Luke 14:3 Jesus answered and 46 said unto the scribes and the Pharisees, Is it lawful on the sabbath to heal? Luke 14:4 But [Arabic, p. 114] they were silent. So he took him, and healed him, and sent him away. 47 Luke 14:5 And he said unto them, Which of you shall have his son or his ox fall on the sabbath day into a well, and not lift him up straightway, and draw water for 48 him? Luke 14:6 And they were not able to answer him a word to that.

1 Luke 14:7 And he spoke a parable unto those which were bidden there, because he saw 2 them choose the places that were in the highest part of the sitting room: Luke 14:8 When a man invites you to a feast, do not go and sit at the head of the room; lest there 3 be there a man more honourable than you, Luke 14:9 and he that invited you come and say to you, Give the place to this man: and you be ashamed when you rise and 4 take another place. Luke 14:10 But when you are invited, go and sit last; so that when he that invited you comes, he may say unto you, My friend, go up higher: and 5 you shall have praise before all that were invited with you. Luke 14:11 For every one that exalts himself shall be abased; and every one that abases himself shall be exalted.

6 Luke 14:12 And he said also to him that had invited him, When you make a feast or a banquet, do not invite your friends, nor even your brethren, nor your kinsmen, nor your 7 rich neighbours; lest haply they also invite you, and you have this reward. Luke 14:13 But when you make a feast, invite the poor, and those with withered hand, and the 8 lame, and the blind: Luke 14:14 and blessed are you, since they have not the means to reward 9 you; that your reward may be at the rising of the righteous. Luke 14:15 And when one of them that were invited heard that, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.

10, 11 Jesus answered again in parables, and said, Luke 14:16b The kingdom of heaven has been likened [Arabic, p. 115] to a certain king, which made a feast for his son, and prepared a 12 great banquet, and invited many: and he sent his servants at the time of the feast to inform them that were invited, Everything is made ready for you; come. And 13 they would not come, but began all of them with one voice to make excuse. Luke 14:18 And the first said unto them, Say to him, I have bought a field, and I must needs go out 14 to see it: Luke 14:19 I pray you to release me, for I ask to be excused. And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to examine them: I pray you 15 to release me, for I ask to be excused. Luke 14:20 And another said, I have married a wife, 16 and therefore I cannot come. Matthew 22:4 And the king sent also other servants, and said, Say to those that were invited, that my feast is ready, and my oxen and my fatlings are 17 slain, and everything is ready: come to the feast. Matthew 22:5 But they made light of it, and 18 went, one to his field, and another to his merchandise: Matthew 22:6 and the rest took his 19 servants, and entreated them shamefully, and killed them. Luke 14:21a And one of the servants 20 came, and informed his lord of what had happened. Matthew 22:7 And when the king heard, he became angry, and sent his armies; and they destroyed those murderers, and 21 burned their cities. Matthew 22:8 Then he said to his servants, The feast is prepared, but those 22 that were invited were not worthy. Luke 14:21c Go out quickly into the markets and into the partings of the ways of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and those with pains, and the lame, and the blind. And the servants did as the king commanded them. 23 Luke 14:22 And they came, and said unto him, Our lord, we have done all that you commanded 24 us, and there is here still room. So the lord said unto his servants, Go out into the roads, and the ways, and the paths, and every one that you find, invite 25 [Arabic, p. 116] to the feast, and constrain them to enter, till my house is filled. I say unto you, that no one of those people that were invited shall taste of my feast. 26 Matthew 22:10 And those servants went out into the roads, and gathered all that they found, good and 27 bad: and the banquet-house was filled with guests. Matthew 22:11 And the king entered to see those 28 who were seated, and he saw there a man not wearing a festive garment: Matthew 22:12 and he said unto him, My friend, how did you come in here not having on festive garments? 29 Matthew 22:13 And he was silent. Then the king said to the servants, Bind his hands and his feet, and put him forth into the outer darkness; there shall be weeping and 30 gnashing of teeth. Matthew 22:14 The called are many; and the chosen, few.

31 John 5:1a And after that, the time of the feast of unleavened bread of the Jews arrived, 32 and Jesus went out to go to Jerusalem. And as he went in the way, there met him 33 ten persons who were lepers, and stood afar off: Luke 17:13 and they lifted up their voice, and 34 said, Our Master, Jesus, have mercy upon us. Luke 17:14 And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go and show yourselves unto the priests. And when they went, they 35 were cleansed. Luke 17:15 And one of them, when he saw himself cleansed, returned, and 36 was praising God with a loud voice; Luke 17:16 and he fell on his face before the feet of 37 Jesus, giving him thanks: and this man was a Samaritan. Luke 17:17 Jesus answered and said, 38 Were not those that were cleansed ten? Where then are the nine? Luke 17:18 Not one of them turned aside to come and praise God, but this man who is of a strange 39 people. Luke 17:19 He said unto him, Arise, and go your way; for your faith has given you life.

40 Mark 10:32 And while they were going up in the way to Jerusalem, Jesus went in front of them; and they wondered, and followed him fearing. And he took his twelve disciples apart, 41 and began to tell them privately what was about to befall him. Luke 18:31b And he said unto [Arabic, p. 117] them, We are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things shall be fulfilled 42 that are written in the prophets concerning the Son of man. Mark 10:33b He shall be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, 43 and deliver him to the peoples; Mark 10:34a and they shall treat him shamefully, and scourge 44 him, and spit in his face, and humble him, and crucify him, and slay him: Luke 18:33 and on 45 the third day he shall rise. Luke 18:34 But they understood not one thing of this; but this word was hidden from them, and they did not perceive these things that were addressed to them.

46 Matthew 20:20 Then came near to him the mother of the (two) sons of Zebedee, she and her (two) sons, and worshipped him, and asked of him a certain thing. Matthew 20:21a And he said 47 unto her, What would you? Mark 10:35 And James and John, her two sons, came forward, and said unto him, Teacher, we would that all that we ask you would 48 do unto us. Mark 10:36 He said unto them, What would ye that I should do unto you? 49 Mark 10:37 They said unto him, Grant us that we may sit, the one on your right, and the other 50 on your left, in your kingdom and your glory. Mark 10:38 And Jesus said unto them, You know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink the cup that I am to drink? And with the 51 baptism that I am to be baptized with, will you be baptized? Mark 10:39 And they said unto him, We are able. Jesus said unto them, The cup that I drink you shall drink; and 52 with the baptism wherewith I am baptized you shall be baptized: Mark 10:40 but that you should sit on my right and on my left is not mine to give; but it is for him for whom my Father has prepared it.

 

1 Mark 10:41 And when the ten heard, they were moved with anger against James and John. 2 Mark 10:42 And Jesus called them, and said unto them, You know that the rulers of the nations 3 are their lords; and their great men are set in authority over them. Mark 10:43 Not thus shall it [Arabic, p. 118] be among you: but he among you that would be great, let him be to you a 4 servant; Mark 10:44 and whoever of you would be first, let him be to every man a 5 bond-servant: Matthew 20:28 even as the Son of man also came not to be served, but to serve, and 6 to give himself a ransom in place of the many. Luke 13:22 He said this, and was going about 7 the villages and the cities, and teaching; and he went to Jerusalem. Luke 13:23 And a man asked him, Are those that shall be saved few? Jesus answered and said unto 8 them, Strive ye to enter at the narrow door: Luke 13:24 I say unto you now, that many shall 9 seek to enter, and shall not be able — Luke 13:25 from the time when the master of the house rises, and closes the door, and you shall be standing without, and shall knock at the door, and shall begin to say, Our lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and 10 say, I say unto you, I know you not whence you are: Luke 13:26 and you shall begin to say, 11 Before you we ate and drank, and in our markets did you teach; Luke 13:27 and he shall say unto you, I know you not whence you are; depart from me, you servants 12 of untruth. Luke 13:28 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, while you are 13 put forth without. Luke 13:29 And they shall come from the east and the west, and from the 14 north and the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God. Luke 13:30 And there shall then be last that have become first, and first that have become last.

15, 16 Luke 19:1 And when Jesus entered and passed through Jericho, Luke 19:2 there was a man named Zacchæus, 17 rich, and chief of the publicans. Luke 19:3 And he desired to see Jesus who he was; and he was not able for the pressure of the crowd, because Zacchæus was little of stature. 18 [Arabic, p. 119] Luke 19:4 And he hastened, and went before Jesus, and went up into an unripe fig 19 tree to see Jesus: for he was to pass thus. Luke 19:5 And when Jesus came to that place, he saw him, and said unto him, Make haste, and come down, Zacchæus: 20 today I must be in your house. Luke 19:6 And he hastened, and came down, and received 21 him joyfully. Luke 19:7 And when they all saw, they murmured, and said, He has gone in 22 and lodged with a man that is a sinner. Luke 19:8 So Zacchæus stood, and said unto Jesus, My Lord, now half of my possessions I give to the poor, and what I have unjustly 23 taken from every man I give him fourfold. Luke 19:9 Jesus said unto him, Today is salvation 24 come to this house, because this man also is a son of Abraham. Luke 19:10 For the Son of man came to seek and save the thing that was lost.

25 And when Jesus went out of Jericho, he and his disciples, there came after him 26 a great multitude. Luke 18:35b And there was a blind man sitting by the way side begging. 27 And his name was Timæus, the son of Timæus. And he heard the sound of the 28 multitude passing, and asked, Who is this? Luke 18:37 They said unto him, Jesus the Nazarene 29 passes by. And when he heard that it was Jesus, he called out with a loud 30 voice, and said, Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me. Luke 18:39a And those that went before Jesus were rebuking him, that he should hold his peace: Mark 10:48b but he cried the 31 more, and said, Son of David, have mercy on me. Mark 10:49 And Jesus stood, and commanded that they should call him. And they called the blind man, and said unto 32 him, Be of good courage, and rise; for, behold, he calls you. Mark 10:50 And the blind 33 man threw away his garment, and rose, and came to Jesus. Mark 10:51 Jesus said unto him, What do you wish that I should do unto you? And that blind man said unto him, My Lord and Master, that my eyes may be opened, so that I may see you. 34 [Arabic, p. 120] Matthew 20:34a And Jesus had compassion on him, and touched his eyes, and said unto 35 him, See; for your faith has saved you. And immediately he received his sight, and came after him, and praised God; and all the people that saw praised God.

36 Luke 19:11b And he spoke a parable because he was nearing Jerusalem, and they supposed 37 that at that time the kingdom of God was about to appear. Luke 19:12 He said unto them, A man, a son of a great race, went into a far country, to receive a kingdom, and 38 return. Luke 19:13 And he called his ten servants, and gave them ten shares, and said unto 39 them, Trade till the time of my coming. Luke 19:14 But the people of his city hated him, and 40 sent messengers after him, and said, We will not that this man reign over us. Luke 19:15 And when he had received a kingdom, and returned, he said that the servants to whom he had given the money should be called unto him, that he might know what each 41 of them had traded. Luke 19:16 And the first came, and said, My lord, your share has gained 42 ten shares. Luke 19:17 The king said unto him, You good and faithful servant, who has 43 been found faithful in a little, be set over ten districts. Luke 19:18 And the second came, 44 and said, My lord, your portion has gained five portions. Luke 19:19 And he said unto him 45 also, And you shall be set over five districts. Luke 19:20 And another came, and said, My 46 lord, here is your portion, which was with me laid by in a napkin: Luke 19:21 I feared you, because you are a hard man, and take what you did not leave, and seek 47 what you did not give, and reap what you did not sow. Luke 19:22 His lord said unto him, From your mouth shall I judge you, you wicked and idle servant, who was untrustworthy. You knew that I am a hard man, and take what I did not 48 leave, and reap what I did not sow: Luke 19:23 why did you not put my money at usury, 49 and so I might come and seek it, with its gains? Luke 19:24 And he said unto those that were standing in front of him, Take from him the share, and give it to him that has 50, 51 [Arabic, p. 121] ten shares. Luke 19:25 They said unto him, Our lord, he has ten shares. Luke 19:26 He said unto them, I say unto you, Every one that has shall be given unto; and 52 he that has not, that which he has also shall be taken from him. Luke 19:27 And those mine enemies who would not that I should reign over them, bring them, and slay them before me.

1 And when Jesus entered Jerusalem, he went up to the temple of God, and found 2 there oxen and sheep and doves. Matthew 21:12b And when he beheld those that sold and those that bought, and the money-changers sitting, John 2:14b he made for himself a scourge of rope, and drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep and the oxen, and the money-changers; Matthew 21:12c and he threw down their money, and upset their tables, and the seats of 3 them that sold the doves; Matthew 21:13 and he was teaching, and saying unto them, Is it not written, My house is a house of prayer for all peoples? And you have made it a den 4 for robbers. John 2:16 And he said unto those that sold the doves, Take this hence, and 5 make not my Father's house a house of merchandise. Mark 11:16 And he suffered not any 6 one to carry vessels inside the temple. John 2:17 And his disciples remembered the scripture, 7 The zeal of your house has eaten me up. John 2:18 The Jews answered and said unto him, 8 What sign have you shown us, that you do this? John 2:19 Jesus answered and said unto 9 them, Destroy this temple, and I shall raise it in three days. John 2:20 The Jews said unto him, This temple was built in forty-six years, and will you raise it in three days? 10 John 2:21 But he spoke unto them of the temple of his body, that when they destroyed it, he 11 [Arabic, p. 122] would raise it in three days. John 2:22 When therefore he rose from among the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this; and they believed the scriptures, and the word that Jesus spoke.

12 Mark 12:41 And when Jesus sat down over against the treasury, he observed how the multitudes were casting their offerings into the treasury: and many rich men were 13, 14 throwing in much. Mark 12:42a And there came a poor widow, and cast in two mites. Luke 21:3 And Jesus called his disciples, and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, This poor 15 widow cast into the treasury more than all the people: Mark 12:44a and all of these cast into the place of the offering of God of the superfluity of their wealth; while this woman of her want threw in all that she possessed.

16 Luke 18:9 And he spoke unto them this parable, concerning people who trusted in themselves 17 that they are righteous, and despised every man: Luke 18:10 Two men went up to the 18 temple to pray; one of them a Pharisee, and the other a publican. Luke 18:11 And the Pharisee stood apart, and prayed thus, O Lord, I thank you, since I am not like the rest of men, the unjust, the profligate, the extortioners, or even like this publican; 19 Luke 18:12 but I fast two days a week, and tithe all my possessions. Luke 18:13 And the publican was 20 standing at a distance, and he would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but was 21 beating upon his breast, and saying, O Lord, have mercy on me, me the sinner. Luke 18:14 I say unto you, that this man went down justified to his house more than the Pharisee. Every one that exalts himself shall be abased; and every one that abases himself shall be exalted.

22 [Arabic, p. 123] And when eventide had come, he left all the people, and went outside the 23 city to Bethany, he and his twelve, and he remained there. Luke 9:11 And all the people, because they knew the place, came to him, and he received them; and them that 24 had need of healing he healed. Mark 11:12 And on the morning of the next day, when he returned 25 to the city from Bethany, he hungered. Mark 11:13 And he saw a fig tree at a distance on the beaten highway, having on it leaves. And he came unto it, expecting to find something on it; and when he came, he found nothing on it but the leaves— it was not 26 the season of figs— Mark 11:14 and he said unto it, Henceforward for ever let no man eat fruit of you. And his disciples heard.

27 And they came to Jerusalem. And there was there a man of the Pharisees, 28 named Nicodemus, ruler of the Jews. John 3:2 This man came unto Jesus by night, and said unto him, My Master, we know that you have been sent from God as a teacher; and no man can do these signs that you do, except him whom God is 29 with. John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man 30 be not born a second time, he cannot see the kingdom of God. John 3:4 Nicodemus said unto him, How can a man who is old be born? Can he, think you, return again to 31 his mother's womb a second time, to enter and be born? John 3:5 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man be not born of water and the Spirit, 32 he cannot enter the kingdom of God. John 3:6 For he that is born of flesh is flesh; and he that 33 is born of Spirit is spirit. John 3:7 Wonder not that I said unto you that you must be born a 34 [Arabic, p. 124] second time. John 3:8 The wind blows where it lists, and you hear its voice, but you know not from what place it comes, nor whither it goes: so 35 is every man that is born of the Spirit. John 3:9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, 36 How can that be? John 3:10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Are you teaching Israel, 37 and yet know not these things? John 3:11 Verily, verily, I say unto you, What we know 38 we say, and what we have seen we witness: and you receive not our witness. John 3:12 If I said unto you what is on earth, and you believed not, how then, if I say unto you 39 what is in heaven, will you believe? John 3:13 And no man has ascended up into heaven, except him that descended from heaven, the Son of man, which is in heaven. 40 John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so is the Son of man to be 41 lifted up; John 3:15 so that every man who may believe in him may not perish, but have 42 eternal life. John 3:16 God so loved the world, that he should give his only Son; and so every one that believes in him should not perish, but should have eternal life. 43 John 3:17 God sent not his Son into the world to judge the world; but that the world might 44 be saved by his hand. John 3:18 He that believes in him shall not be judged: but he that believes not is condemned beforehand, because he has not believed in the name 45 of the only Son, the Son of God. John 3:19 This is the judgement, that the light came into the world, and men loved the darkness more than the light; because their deeds 46 were evil. John 3:20 Whosoever does evil deeds hates the light, and comes not to the 47 light, lest his deeds be reproved. John 3:21 But he that does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be known, that they have been done in God.

1 [Arabic, p. 125] Mark 11:19 And when evening came, Jesus went forth outside of the city, he and his 2 disciples. Mark 11:20 And as they passed in the morning, the disciples saw that fig tree 3 withered away from its root. Matthew 21:20b And they passed by, and said, How did the fig tree dry 4 up immediately? Mark 11:21 And Simon remembered, and said unto him, My Master, behold, 5 that fig tree which you cursed has dried up. Mark 11:22 And Jesus answered and said 6 unto them, Let there be in you the faith of God. Mark 11:23 Verily I say unto you, if you believe, and doubt not in your hearts, and assure yourselves that that will be which 7 ye say, you shall have what ye say. Matthew 21:21b And if you say to this mountain, Remove, and 8 fall into the sea, it shall be. Matthew 21:22 And all that you ask God in prayer, and believe, he 9, 10 will give you. Luke 17:5 And the apostles said unto our Lord, Increase our faith. Luke 17:6 He said unto them, If there be in you faith like a grain of mustard, you shall say to this fig tree, Be torn up, and be planted in the sea; and it will obey you. 11 Luke 17:7 Who of you has a servant driving a yoke of oxen or tending sheep, and if he 12 come from the field, will say unto him straightway, Go and sit down? Luke 17:8 Nay, he will say unto him, Make ready for me wherewith I may sup, and gird your waist, and serve me, till I eat and drink; and afterwards you shall eat and drink also. 13 Luke 17:9 Does that servant haply, who did what he was bid, receive his praise? I think 14 not. Luke 17:10 So ye also, when you have done all that you were bid, say, We are idle servants; what it was our duty to do, we have done.

15 Mark 11:24 For this reason I say unto you, Whatever ye pray and ask, believe that you 16 [Arabic, p. 126] receive, and you shall have. Mark 11:25 And when you stand to pray, forgive what is in your heart against any man; and your Father which is in heaven will 17 forgive you also your wrong-doings. Mark 11:26 But if you forgive not men their wrong-doings, neither will your Father forgive you also your wrong-doings.

18 Luke 18:1 And he spoke unto them a parable also, that they should pray at all times, and 19 not be slothful: Luke 18:2 There was a judge in a city, who feared not God, nor was ashamed 20 for men: Luke 18:3 and there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, and said, 21 Avenge me of mine adversary. Luke 18:4 And he would not for a long time: but afterwards he said within himself, If of God I have no fear, and before men I have no shame; 22 Luke 18:5 yet because this widow vexes me, I will avenge her, that she come not at all times 23, 24 and annoy me. Luke 18:6 And our Lord said, Hear ye what the judge of injustice said. Luke 18:7 And shall not God still more do vengeance for his elect, who call upon him in the night 25 and in the day, and grant them respite? Luke 18:8 I say unto you, He will do vengeance for them speedily. Do you think the Son of man will come and find faith on the earth?

26, 27 Mark 11:15a And they came again to Jerusalem. Luke 20:1 And it came to pass, on one of the days, as Jesus was walking in the temple, and teaching the people, and preaching the 28 gospel, Luke 20:2a that the chief priests and the scribes with the elders came upon him, and said unto him, Tell us: Mark 11:28b By what power do you do this? And who gave you this 29 power to do that? And Jesus said unto them, I also will ask you one word, and if 30 ye tell me, I also shall tell you by what power I do that. Matthew 21:25a The baptism of John, from 31 what place is it? From heaven or of men? Mark 11:30b Tell me. Matthew 21:25b And they reflected within themselves, [Arabic, p. 127] and said, If we shall say unto him, From heaven; he will say unto 32 us, For what reason did ye not believe him? Matthew 21:26a But if we shall say, Of men; 33 we fear that the people will stone us, all of them. And all of them were holding 34 to John, that he was a true prophet. Mark 11:33 They answered and said unto him, We know 35 not. Matthew 21:28 Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you also by what power I work. What do you think? A man had two sons; and he went to the first, and said unto him, My 36 son, go today, and till in the vineyard. Matthew 21:29 And he answered and said, I do not wish 37 to: but finally he repented, and went. Matthew 21:30 And he went to the other, and said unto 38 him likewise. Matthew 21:31 And he answered and said, Yea, my lord: and went not. Which of these two did the will of his father? They said unto him, The first. Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, The publicans and harlots go before you into 39 the kingdom of God. Matthew 21:32 John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and you believed him not; but the publicans and harlots believed him; and you, not even when you saw, did ye repent at last, that you might believe in him.

40 Matthew 21:33a Hear another parable: A man was a householder, and planted a vineyard, and surrounded it with a hedge, and dug in it a winepress, and built in it a tower, 41, 42 and gave it to husbandmen, and went to a distance for a long time. Mark 12:34 So when the time of the fruits came, he sent his servants unto the husbandmen, that they might 43 send him of the produce of his vineyard. Mark 12:3b And those husbandmen beat him, and 44 sent him away empty. Mark 12:4 And he sent unto them another servant also; and they 45 stoned him, and wounded him, and sent him away with shameful handling. Mark 12:5a And he sent again another; and they slew him. And he sent many other servants unto 46 them. Matthew 21:35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and one they beat, and another they 47 stoned, and another they slew. Matthew 21:36 So he sent again other servants more than the first; and 48 [Arabic, p. 128] they did likewise with them. Luke 20:13 So the owner of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will see him and be 49, 50 ashamed. Mark 12:6a So at last he sent unto them his beloved son that he had. Matthew 21:38a But the husbandmen, when they saw the son, said among themselves, This is the heir. 51, 52 Luke 20:14b And they said, We will slay him, and so the inheritance will be ours. Matthew 21:39 So they took 53 him, and put him forth without the vineyard, and slew him. Matthew 21:40 When then the lord 54 of the vineyard shall come, what will he do with those husbandmen? Matthew 21:41 They said unto him, He will destroy them in the worst of ways, and give the vineyard to 55 other husbandmen, who will give him fruit in its season. Matthew 21:42a Jesus said unto them, Have ye never read in the scripture,

The stone which the builders declared to be base,
Luke 20:17b The same came to be at the head of the corner:
56 Matthew 21:42c From God was this,
And it is wonderful in our eyes?

57 Matthew 21:43 Therefore I say unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and 58 given to a people that will produce fruit. Matthew 21:44 And whosoever falls on this stone shall be broken in pieces: but on whomsoever it falls, it will grind him to 59 powder. Matthew 21:45 And when the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they 60 perceived that it was concerning them he spoke. Matthew 21:46 And they sought to seize him; and they feared the multitude, because they were holding to him as the prophet.

 

1 Then went the Pharisees and considered how they might ensnare him in a word, 2 and deliver him into the power of the judge, and into the power of the ruler. Matthew 22:16 And they sent unto him their disciples, with the kinsfolk of Herod; and they said unto him, [Arabic, p. 129] Teacher, we know that you speak the truth, and teachest the way of God with equity, and art not lifted up by any man: for you act not so as to 3 be seen of any man. Matthew 22:17 Tell us now, What is your opinion? Is it lawful that we should 4 pay the tribute to Cæsar, or not? Shall we give, or shall we not give? Mark 12:15a But Jesus knew 5 their deceit, and said unto them, Why do you tempt me, you hypocrites? Show me the 6 penny of the tribute. Matthew 22:20 So they brought unto him a penny. Jesus said unto them, To whom belongs this image and inscription? They said unto him, To Cæsar. 7, 8 Matthew 22:21 He said unto them, Give what is Cæsar's to Cæsar, and what is God's to God. Luke 20:26 And they could not make him slip in a single word before the people; and they marvelled at his word, and refrained.

9 Matthew 22:23 And on that day came the Sadducees, and said unto him, There is no life for 10 the dead. Matthew 22:24 And they asked him, and said unto him, Teacher, Moses said unto us, If a man die, not having children, let his brother take his wife, and raise up seed 11 for his brother. Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first took a wife, 12 and died without children; Luke 20:30 and the second took his wife, and died without children; 13 Luke 20:31 and the third also took her; and in like manner the seven of them also, and they 14, 15 died without leaving children. Matthew 22:27 And last of them all the woman died also. Matthew 22:28 At the resurrection, then, which of these seven shall have this woman? For all of them took 16 her. Jesus answered and said unto them, Is it not for this that you have erred, 17 because ye know not the scriptures, nor the power of God? Luke 20:34b And the sons of this 18 world take wives, and the women become the men's; Luke 20:35 but those that have become worthy of that world, and the resurrection from among the dead, do not take 19 [Arabic, p. 130] wives, and the women also do not become the men's. Luke 20:36 Nor is it possible that they should die; but they are like the angels, and are the children of 20 God, because they have become the children of the resurrection. For in the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read in the book of Moses, how from the bush God said unto him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? 21 And God is not the God of the dead, but of the living: for all of them are alive with him. And you have erred greatly.

22, 23 Matthew 22:33 And when the multitudes heard, they were wondering at his teaching. Luke 20:39 And 24 some of the scribes answered and said unto him, Teacher, you have well said. Matthew 22:34 But the rest of the Pharisees, when they saw his silencing the Sadducees on this point, gathered against him to contend with him.

25 And one of the scribes, of those that knew the law, when he saw the excellence 26 of his answer to them, desired to try him, and said unto him, Luke 10:25b What shall I do to inherit eternal life? And, Mark 12:28b Which of the commandments is greater, and has precedence 27 in the law? Mark 12:29 Jesus said unto him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O 28 Israel; The Lord our God, the Lord is one: and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your thought, and with all your 29, 30 strength. Matthew 22:38 This is the great and preëminent commandment. Mark 12:31 And the second, which is like it, is, You shall love your neighbour as yourself. And another commandment 31 greater than these two there is not. Matthew 22:40 On these two commandments, then, are hung the 32 [Arabic, p. 131] law and the prophets. Mark 12:32 That scribe said unto him, Excellent! My Master; you have said truly that he is one, and there is no other outside of him: 33 Mark 12:33 and that a man should love him with all his heart, and with all his thought, and with all his soul, and with all his strength, and that he should love his neighbour as 34 himself, is better than all savours and sacrifices. Mark 12:34a And Jesus saw him that he had answered wisely; and he answered and said unto him, You are not far from the 35, 36 kingdom of God. Luke 10:28b You have spoken rightly: do this, and you shall live. Luke 10:29 And he, as his desire was to justify himself, said unto him, And who is my neighbour? 37 Luke 10:30 Jesus said unto him, A man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho; and the robbers fell upon him, and stripped him, and beat him, his life remaining in him but little, 38 and went away. Luke 10:31 And it happened that there came down a certain priest that way; 39 and he saw him, and passed by. Luke 10:32 And likewise a Levite also came and reached 40 that place, and saw him, and passed by. Luke 10:33 And a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, 41 came to the place where he was, and saw him, and had compassion on him, Luke 10:34 and came near, and bound up his strokes, and poured on them wine and oil; and he set him on the ass, and brought him to the inn, and expended his care upon him. 42 Luke 10:35 And on the morrow of that day he took out two pence, and gave them to the innkeeper, and said unto him, Care for him; and if you spend upon him more, 43 when I return, I shall give you. Luke 10:36 Who of these three now, do you think, is nearest 44 to him that fell among the robbers? Luke 10:37 And he said unto him, He that had compassion 45 [Arabic, p. 132] on him. Mark 12:34b Jesus said unto him, Go, and do also likewise. And no man dared afterwards to ask him anything.

46 Luke 19:47 And he was teaching every day in the temple. But the chief priests and scribes and the elders of the people sought to destroy him: Luke 19:48 and they could not find what 47 they should do with him; and all the people were hanging upon him to hear him. 48 John 7:31 And many of the multitude believed on him, and said, The Messiah, when he 49 comes, can it be that he will do more than these signs that this man does? John 7:32 And the Pharisees heard the multitudes say that of him; and the chief priests sent 50 officers to seize him. John 7:33 And Jesus said unto them, I am with you but a short time 51 yet, and I go to him that sent me. John 7:34 And you shall seek me, and shall not find me: 52 and where I shall be, you shall not be able to come. John 7:35 The Jews said within themselves, Whither has this man determined to go that we shall not be able to find him? Can it be that he is determined to go to the regions of the nations, and teach 53 the heathen? John 7:36 What is this word that he said, You shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, you cannot come?

1 John 7:37 And on the great day, which is the last of the feast, Jesus stood, crying out and 2 saying, If any man is thirsty, let him come unto me, and drink. John 7:38 Every one that believes in me, as the scriptures said, there shall flow from his belly rivers of pure 3 water. John 7:39 He said that referring to the Spirit, which those who believed in him were to receive: for the Spirit was not yet granted; and because Jesus had not yet been 4 [Arabic, p. 133] glorified. John 7:40 And many of the multitude that heard his words said, This is 5 in truth the prophet. John 7:41 And others said, This is the Messiah. But others 6 said, Can it be that the Messiah will come from Galilee? John 7:42 Hath not the scripture said that from the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the village of David, the 7 Messiah comes? John 7:43 And there occurred a dissension in the multitude because of him. 8 John 7:44 And some of them were wishing to seize him; but no man laid a hand upon him.

9 John 7:45 And those officers came to the chief priests and Pharisees: and the priests said 10 unto them, Why did ye not bring him? John 7:46 The officers said, Never spoke man thus 11 as speaks this man. John 7:47 The Pharisees said unto them, Perhaps ye also have gone 12, 13 astray? John 7:48 Hath any of the rulers or the Pharisees haply believed in him? John 7:49 except 14 this people which knows not the law; they are accursed. John 7:50 Nicodemus, one of them, 15 he that had come to Jesus by night, John 7:51 said unto them, Does our law haply condemn 16 a man, except it hear him first and know what he has done? John 7:52 They answered and said unto him, Are you also haply from Galilee? Search, and see that a prophet rises not from Galilee.

17, 18 Matthew 22:41 And when the Pharisees assembled, Jesus asked them, and said, Matthew 22:42 What say ye of 19 the Messiah? Whose son is he? They said unto him, The son of David. Matthew 22:43 He said unto them, And how does David in the Holy Spirit call him Lord? For he said,

20 Matthew 22:44 The Lord said unto my Lord,
Sit on my right hand,
That I may put your enemies under your feet.

21, 22 Matthew 22:45 If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son? Matthew 22:46 And no one was able to answer him; and no man dared from that day again to ask him of anything.

23 John 8:12 And Jesus addressed them again, and said, I am the light of the world; and he that 24 follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall find the light of life. John 8:13 The Pharisees [Arabic, p. 134] said unto him, You bear witness to yourself; your witness is not true. John 8:14 Jesus 25 answered and said unto them, If I bear witness to myself, my witness is true; for I know whence I came, and where I go; but you know not whence I came, or 26, 27 where I go. John 8:15 And ye judge after the flesh; and I judge no man. John 8:16 And even if I judge, my judgement is true; because I am not alone, but I and my Father which 28, 29 sent me. John 8:17 And in your law it is written, that the witness of two men is true. John 8:18 I am he that bears witness to myself, and my Father which sent me bears witness to 30 me. John 8:19 They said unto him, Where is your Father? Jesus answered and said unto them, You know not me, nor my Father: for did ye know me, you would know my 31 Father. John 8:20 He said these sayings in the treasury, where he was teaching in the 32 temple: John 8:21 and no man seized him; because his hour had not yet come. Jesus said unto them again, I go truly, and you shall seek me and not find me, and you shall die 33 in your sins: and where I go, you cannot come. John 8:22 The Jews said, Will he haply kill 34 himself, that he says, Where I go, you cannot come? John 8:23 He said unto them, You are from below; and I am from above: you are of this world; and I am not of this 35 world. John 8:24 I said unto you, that you shall die in your sins: if you believe not that I am 36 he, you shall die in your sins. John 8:25 The Jews said, And you, who are you? Jesus said 37 unto them, If I should begin to speak unto you, John 8:26 I have concerning you many words and judgement: but he that sent me is true; and I, what I heard from him is what 38, 39 I say in the world. John 8:27 And they knew not that he meant by that the Father. John 8:28 Jesus [Arabic, p. 135] said unto them again, When you have lifted up the Son of man, then you shall know that I am he: and I do nothing of myself, but as my Father 40 taught me, so I speak. John 8:29 And he that sent me is with me; and my Father has not 41 left me alone; because I do what is pleasing to him at all times. John 8:30 And while he was saying that, many believed in him.

42 John 8:31 And Jesus said to those Jews that believed in him, If you abide in my words, truly 43 you are my disciples; John 8:32 and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. 44 John 8:33 They said unto him, We are the seed of Abraham, and have never served any man 45 in the way of slavery: how then do you say, You shall be free children? John 8:34 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Every one that does a sin is a slave of 46 sin. John 8:35 And the slave does not remain for ever in the house; but the son remains 47, 48 for ever. John 8:37 And if the Son set you free, truly you shall be free children. I know that you are the seed of Abraham; but you seek to slay me, because you are unable for my 49 word. John 8:38 And what I saw with my Father, I say: and what ye saw with your father, 50 ye do. John 8:39 They answered and said unto him, Our father is Abraham. Jesus said unto them, If you were the children of Abraham, you would do the deeds of Abraham. 51 John 8:40 Now, behold, you seek to kill me, a man that speak with you the truth, that I 52 heard from God: this did Abraham not do. John 8:41 And ye do the deeds of your father. They said unto him, We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, who is 53 God. John 8:42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, you would love me: I proceeded and came from God; and it was not of my own self that I came, but he sent 54 [Arabic, p. 136] me. John 8:43 Why then do ye not know my word? Because ye cannot hear my word. 55 John 8:44 You are from the father, the devil, and the lust of your father do ye desire to do, who from the beginning is a slayer of men, and in the truth stands not, because the truth is not in him. And when he speaks untruth, he speaks from 56 himself: for he is a liar, and the father of untruth. John 8:45 And I who speak the truth, you 57 believe me not. John 8:46 Who of you rebukes me for a sin? And if I speak the truth, you 58 do not believe me. John 8:47 Whosoever is of God hears the words of God: therefore do 59 ye not hear, because you are not of God. John 8:48 The Jews answered and said unto him, 60 Did we not say well that you are a Samaritan, and hast demons? John 8:49 Jesus said unto them, As for me, I have not a devil; but my Father do I honour, and you dishonour 61 me. John 8:50 I seek not my glory: here is one who seeks and judges.

 

1 John 8:51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever keeps my word shall not see death 2 for ever. John 8:52 The Jews said unto him, Now we know that you have demons. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and you say, Whosoever keeps my word shall not 3 taste death for ever. John 8:53 Are you haply greater than our father Abraham, who is 4 dead, and than the prophets, which are dead? Whom makest you yourself? John 8:54 Jesus said unto them, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: my Father is he that 5 glorifies me; of whom you say, that he is our God; John 8:55 and yet you have not known him: but I know him; and if I should say that I know him not, I should become 6 [Arabic, p. 137] a liar like you: but I know him, and keep his word. John 8:56 Abraham your father 7 longed to see my day; and he saw, and rejoiced. John 8:57 The Jews said unto him, 8 You are now not fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham? John 8:58 Jesus said unto 9 them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. John 8:59 And they take stones to stone him: but Jesus concealed himself, and went out of the temple. And he passed through them, and went his way.

10 John 9:1 And as he passed, he saw a man blind from his mother's womb. John 9:2 And his 11 disciples asked him, and said, Our Master, who sinned, this man, or his parents, so 12 that he was born blind? John 9:3 Jesus said unto them, Neither did he sin, nor his parents: 13 but that the works of God may be seen in him. John 9:4 It is incumbent on me to do the deeds of him that sent me, while it is day: a night will come, and no man will be 14 able to busy himself. John 9:5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. 15 John 9:6 And when he said that, he spat upon the ground, and made clay of his spittle, and 16 smeared it on the eyes of the blind man, and said unto him, John 9:7 Go and wash yourself in 17 the pool of Siloam. John 9:8 And he went and washed, and came seeing. And his neighbours, which saw him of old begging, said, Is not this he that was sitting begging? 18 John 9:9 And some said, It is he; and others said, Nay, but he resembles him much. He 19, 20 said, I am he. John 9:10 They said unto him, How then were your eyes opened? John 9:11 He answered and said unto them, A man named Jesus made clay, and smeared it on my eyes, and said unto me, Go and wash in the water of Siloam: and I went and 21 washed, and received sight. John 9:12 They said unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not. 22, 23 [Arabic, p. 138] John 9:13 And they brought him that was previously blind to the Pharisees. John 9:14 And the day in which Jesus made clay and opened with it his eyes was a sabbath 24 day. John 9:15 And again the Pharisees asked him, How did you receive sight? And he said 25 unto them, He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and received sight. John 9:16 The people of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, for he keeps not the sabbath. And others said, How can a man that is a sinner do these signs? And there came 26 to be a division among them. John 9:17 And again they said to that blind man, You, then, what do you say of him that opened for you your eyes? He said unto them, 27 I say that he is a prophet. John 9:18 And the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he was blind, and received sight, until they summoned the parents of him who received 28 sight, and asked them, John 9:19 Is this your son, of whom you said that he was born blind? 29 how then, behold, does he now see? John 9:20 His parents answered and said, We know 30 that this is our son, and that he was born blind: John 9:21 but how he has come to see now, or who it is that opened his eyes, we know not: and he also has reached his prime; 31 ask him, and he will speak for himself. John 9:22 This said his parents, because they were fearing the Jews: and the Jews decided, that if any man should confess of him that 32 he was the Messiah, they would put him out of the synagogue. John 9:23 For this reason 33 said his parents, He has reached his prime; ask him. John 9:24 And they called the man a second time, him that was blind, and said unto him, Praise God: we know that this 34 man is a sinner. John 9:25 He answered and said unto them, Whether he be a sinner, I know 35 not: I know one thing, that I was blind, and I now see. John 9:26 They said unto him again, 36 [Arabic, p. 139] What did he unto you? How opened he for you your eyes? John 9:27 He said unto them, I said unto you, and you did not hear: what wish ye further to hear? 37 ye also, do ye wish to become disciples to him? John 9:28 And they reviled him, and said unto him, You are the disciple of that man; but as for us, we are the disciples of 38 Moses. John 9:29 And we know that God spoke unto Moses: but this man, we know not 39 whence he is. John 9:30 The man answered and said unto them, From this is the wonder, 40 because ye know not whence he is, and my eyes has he opened. John 9:31 And we know that God hears not the voice of sinners: but whosoever fears him, and does 41 his will, him he hears. John 9:32 From eternity has it not been heard of, that a man 42 opened the eyes of a blind man, who had been born in blindness. John 9:33 If then this man 43 were not from God, he could not do that. John 9:34 They answered and said unto him, You were all of you born in sins, and do you teach us? And they put him forth without.

44 John 9:35 And Jesus heard of his being put forth without, and found him, and said unto 45 him, Do you believe in the Son of God? John 9:36 He that was made whole answered 46 and said, Who is he, my Lord, that I may believe in him? John 9:37 Jesus said unto him, 47 You have seen him, and he that speaks to you is he. John 9:38 And he said, I believe, my Lord. And he fell down worshipping him.
