And from thence he arose, and went away into the borders of Tyre and Sidon. And he entered into a 3 Some house, and would have no man know it: and he could ancient 25 not be hid. But straightway a woman, whose little omit and daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, 26 came and fell down at his feet. Now the woman was a *Greek, a Syrophoenician by race. And she besought him 4 Or, Gentile that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter. 5 Gr. demon. 27 And he said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread and 6 Or, loaf 28 cast it to the dogs. But she answered and saith unto him, Yea, Lord: even the dogs under the table eat of 29 the children's crumbs. And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the 5 devil is gone out of thy 30 daughter. And she went away unto her house, and found the child laid upon the bed, and the devil gone out. 31 And again he went out from the borders of Tyre, and came through Sidon unto the sea of Galilee, 32 through the midst of the borders of Decapolis. And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to 33 lay his hand upon him. And he took him aside from the multitude privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat, and touched his tongue; and look- 34 ing up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened. And his ears were opened, 35 and the bond of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain. And he charged them that they should tell no 36 man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published it. And they were 37 beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well he maketh even the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak. 1 In those days, when there was again a great multi- 8 tude, and they had nothing to eat, he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, I have compassion 2 on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat and if I send 3 them away fasting to their home, they will faint in the way; and some of them are come from far. And 4 his disciples answered him, Whence shall one be able 1 Gr. loaves. to fill these men with bread here in a desert place? And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And 5 they said, Seven. And he commandeth the multitude to 6 sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and having given thanks, he brake, and gave to his disciples, to set before them; and they set them before the multitude. And they had a few small fishes: and having 7 blessed them, he commanded to set these also before them. And they did eat, and were filled: and they took 8 up, of broken pieces that remained over, seven baskets. And they were about four thousand: and he sent them 9 away. And straightway he entered into the boat with 10 his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha. And the Pharisees came forth, and began to ques- 11 tion with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him. And he sighed deeply in his spirit, 12 and saith, Why doth this generation seek a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation. And he left them, and again 13 entering into the boat departed to the other side. And they forgot to take bread; and they had not in 14 the boat with them more than one loaf. And he 15 charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven ancient they had no because we 16 of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod. And they reasoned one with another, 'saying, "We have no 1 Some 17 bread. And Jesus perceiving it saith unto them, authorities Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? do ye not read because yet perceive, neither understand? have ye your heart bread. 18 hardened? Having eyes, see ye not? and having 2 Or, It is 19 ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?

And when the seven 20 represents among the four thousand, how many basketfuls of 21 broken pieces took ye up? And they say unto him, Seven. And he said unto them, Do ye not yet understand? 22 3 And they come unto Bethsaida. And they bring to 23 him a blind man, and beseech him to touch him. And he took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him cut of the village; and when he had spit on his eyes, and laid his hands upon him, he asked 24 him, Seest thou aught? And he looked up, and said, 25 I see men; for I behold them as trees, walking. Then again he laid his hands upon his eyes; and he looked stedfastly, and was restored, and saw all things 26 clearly. And he sent him away to his home, saying, Do not even enter into the village. 27 And Jesus went forth, and his disciples, into the villages of Cæsarea Philippi: and in the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Who do men say that 28 I am? And they told him, saying, John the Baptist: and others, Elijah; but others, One of the prophets. 29 And he asked them, But who say ye that I am? Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ. 30 And he charged them that they should tell no man of 31 him. And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and the chief priests, and the scribes, and be 32 killed, and after three days rise again. And he spake the saying openly. And Peter took him, and began 33 to rebuke him. But he turning about, and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and saith, Get thee behind me, Satan for thou mindest not the things of God, bread. ver. 19 and different Greek words. 1 Or, soul but the things of men. And he called unto him the 34 And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and 2 James, and John, and bringeth them up into a high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them and his garments became glis- 3 tering, exceeding white; so as no fuller on earth can whiten them. And there appeared unto them Elijah 4 with Moses and they were talking with Jesus. And 5 Peter answereth and saith to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good 2 Or, booths for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah. For he wist not what to answer; for they became sore 6 afraid. And there came a cloud overshadowing them : 7 and there came a voice out of the cloud, This is my beloved Son: hear ye him. And suddenly looking 8 round about, they saw no one any more, save Jesus only with themselves. And as they were coming down from the mountain, 9 he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, save when the Son of man should have risen again from the dead. And they kept the 10 saying, questioning among themselves what the rising again from the dead should mean. And they asked him, 11 3 Or, How is saying, The scribes say that Elijah must first come. And he said unto them, Elijah indeed cometh first, 12 and restoreth all things: and how is it written of the it that the scribes say.. come? Son of man, that he should suffer many things and be 13 set at nought? But I say unto you, that Elijah is come, and they have also done unto him whatsoever they listed, even as it is written of him. 14 And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great multitude about them, and scribes questioning 15 with them. And straightway all the multitude, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and running to 16 him saluted him. And he asked them, What question 17 ye with them? And one of the multitude answered him, 1Master, I brought unto thee my son, which hath 1Or, Teacher 18 a dumb spirit; and wheresoever it taketh him, it rendeth him convulsed 2 dasheth him down: and he foameth, and grindeth his 2 Or, teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast it out; and they were not able. 19 And he answereth them and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I 20 bear with you? bring him unto me. And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit 3tare him grievously; and he fell on the ground, 3 Or, 21 and wallowed foaming. And he asked his father, How long time is it since this hath come unto him? 22 And he said, From a child. And oft-times it hath cast him both into the fire and into the waters, to destroy him but if thou canst do anything, have compassion 23 on us, and help us. And Jesus said unto him, If thou canst! All things are possible to him that be24 lieveth. Straightway the father of the child cried out, 25 and said, I believe; help thou mine unbelief. And 4 Many when Jesus saw that a multitude came running to- authorities gether, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying unto add with him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, 26 come out of him, and enter no more into him. And 3 having cried out, and torn him much, he came out: and the child became as one dead; insomuch that the ancient tears. it that we 27 more part said, He is dead. But Jesus took him by 5 Or, How is 28 the hand, and raised him up; and he arose. And could not when he was come into the house, his disciples 29 him privately, saying, We could not cast it out. he said unto them, This kind can come out by nothing, add and 5 asked 6 Many And cast it out? ancient authorities save by prayer". fasting. |
