The New Testament of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ

And he cometh

into a house. "And the multitude

cometh together again, so that they could not so much (21 as eat bread. "And when his friends heard it, they went out to lay hold on him: for they said, He is beside himself. "And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and, By the prince of the devils 23 casteth he out the devils.

"And he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out 24 Satan? "And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that 25 kingdom cannot stand. "And if a house be divided

26 against itself, that house will not be able to stand.

"And

if Satan hath risen up against himself, and is divided, he (27) cannot stand, but hath an end. "But no one can enter

into the house of the strong man, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man; and then he will 28 spoil his house. "Verily I say unto you, All their sins

shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and their blas29 phemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme: "but whosoever shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit hath 30 never forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin: "because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.

31) And there come his mother and his brethren; and, 32 standing without, they sent unto him, calling him. "And a multitude was sitting about him; and they say unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee. "And he answereth them, and saith, Who is my (34) mother and my brethren? "And looking round on them which sat round about him, he saith, Behold, my mother (35 and my brethren! "For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

that he entered into a boat, and sat in the sea; and all 2 the multitude were by the sea on the land. "And he taught them many things in parables, and said unto them (3) in his teaching, "Hearken: Behold, the sower went forth (4 to sow : "and it came to pass, as he sowed, some seed fell by the way side, and the birds came and devoured it. 5 "And other fell on the rocky ground, where it had not much earth; and straightway it sprang up, because it had 6 no deepness of earth: "and when the sun was risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered 7 away. "And other fell among the thorns, and the thorns (8 grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit. "And others fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing; and brought forth, thirtyfold, and (9 sixtyfold, and a hundredfold. "And he said, Who hath

1Ο

ears to hear, let him hear.

And when he was alone, they that were about him with (11 the twelve asked of him the parables. "And he said unto

(13 them.

them, Unto you is given the mystery of the kingdom of God but unto them that are without, all things are done (12 in parables: "that seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest haply they should turn again, and it should be forgiven "And he saith unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how shall ye know all the parables? "The 15) Sower soweth the word. "And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; and when they have heard, straightway cometh Satan, and taketh away the word 16 which hath been sown in them. "And these in like manner are they that are sown upon the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, straightway receive it (17 with joy; "and they have no root in themselves, but A.

endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, straightway they stumble. 18 "And others are they that are sown among the thorns; (19 these are they that have heard the word, "and the cares

of the 1world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it (20 becometh unfruitful. "And those are they that were sown upon the good ground; such as hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, thirtyfold, and sixtyfold, and a hundredfold.

And he said unto them, Is the lamp brought to be put under the bushel, or under the bed, and not to be put on (22 the stand? "For there is nothing hid, save that it should be manifested; neither was anything made secret, but that it should come to light. "If any man hath ears to (24) hear, let him hear. "And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear with what measure ye mete it shall be measured unto you and more shall be given unto you. 25 "For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken away even that which he hath.

And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man 27) should cast seed upon the earth; "and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and (28 grow, he knoweth not how. "The earth 2beareth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, then the full corn in the ear. "But when the fruit is ripe, straightway he * putteth forth the sickle, because the harvest is come. And he said, How shall we liken the kingdom of God? 31 or in what parable shall we set it forth?

"It is like a

4 Or, sendeth forth

grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown upon the earth, though it be less than all the seeds that are upon (32 the earth, "yet when it is sown, groweth up, and becometh greater than all the herbs, and putteth out great branches; so that the birds of the heaven can lodge under the shadow thereof.

(35

And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it: "and without a parable spake he not unto them: but privately to his own disciples he expounded all things.

And on that day, when even was come, he saith unto (36) them, Let us go over unto the other side. "And leaving the multitude, they take him with them, even as he was, 37 in the boat. And other boats were with him. "And there ariseth a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the boat, insomuch that the boat was now filling. "And he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion: and they awake him, and say unto him, 'Master, carest thou not that we perish? "And he awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the (40) wind ceased, and there was a great calm. "And he said unto them, Why are ye fearful? have ye not yet faith? 41 'And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

5 (1 And they came to the other side of the sea, into the 2 country of the Gerasenes. "And when he was come out of the boat, straightway there met him out of the tombs. 3 a man with an unclean spirit, "who had his dwelling in the tombs and no man could any more bind him, no, not with a chain; "because that he had been often bound 1 1Or, Teacher

with fetters and chains, and the chains had been rent asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces and no 5) man had strength to tame him. "And always, night and

day, in the tombs and in the mountains, he was crying out, (6 and cutting himself with stones. "And when he saw Jesus (7 from afar, he ran and worshipped him; "and crying out

with a loud voice, he saith, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the Most High God? I adjure 8) thee by God, torment me not. "For he said unto him, "And Come forth, thou unclean spirit, out of the man.

he asked him, What is thy name? And he saith unto 10 him, My name is Legion; for we are many. "And he besought him much that he would not send them away II out of the country. "Now there was there on the moun(12 tain side a great herd of swine feeding. "And they

besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we (13 may enter into them. "And he gave them leave. And

the unclean spirits came out, and entered into the swine: and the herd rushed down the steep into the sea, in number about two thousand; and they were choked in the 14 sea. "And they that fed them fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they came to see what it was (15) that had come to pass. "And they come to Jesus, and behold 1him that was possessed with devils sitting, clothed and in his right mind, even him that had the legion: and (16 they were afraid. "And they that saw it declared unto

them how it befell 1him that was possessed with devils, 17 and concerning the swine. "And they began to beseech 18 him to depart from their borders. "And as he was enter
