…and pleaded with Him urgently, “My little daughter is near death. Please come and place Your hands on her, so that she will be healed and live.”

So Jesus went with him, and a large crowd followed and pressed around Him.

Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary and the brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? Aren’t His sisters here with us as well?” And they took offense at Him.

They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.

At once the girl hurried back to the king with her request: “I want you to give me the head of John the Baptist on a platter immediately.”

The king was consumed with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.

And He said to them, “Come with Me privately to a solitary place, and let us rest for a while.” For many people were coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.

Then He climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. And the disciples were utterly astounded,

…and they saw some of His disciples eating with hands that were defiled—that is, unwashed.

So the Pharisees and scribes questioned Jesus: “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders? Instead, they eat with defiled hands.”

Jesus answered them, “Isaiah prophesied correctly about you hypocrites, as it is written: ‘These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.

“I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat.

He immediately got into the boat with His disciples and went to the district of Dalmanutha.

Then the Pharisees came and began to argue with Jesus, testing Him by demanding from Him a sign from heaven.

Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, except for one loaf they had with them in the boat.

So they began to discuss with one another the fact that they had no bread.

Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples, and He told them, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.

If anyone is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in His Father’s glory with the holy angels.”

Then Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God arrive with power.”

After six days Jesus took with Him Peter, James, and John, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There He was transfigured before them.

And Elijah and Moses appeared before them, talking with Jesus.

Suddenly, when they looked around, they saw no one with them except Jesus.

When they returned to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them.

As soon as all the people saw Jesus, they were filled with awe and ran to greet Him.

“What are you disputing with them?” He asked.

“O unbelieving generation!” Jesus replied. “How long must I remain with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy to Me.”

“O unbelieving generation!” Jesus replied. “How long must I remain with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy to Me.”

Jesus asked the boy’s father, “How long has this been with him?” “From childhood,” he said.

And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell,

For everyone will be salted with fire.

Salt is good, but if the salt loses its saltiness, with what will you season it? Have salt among yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”

Salt is good, but if the salt loses its saltiness, with what will you season it? Have salt among yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.”

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.”

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.”

…will fail to receive a hundredfold in the present age—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and fields, along with persecutions—and in the age to come, eternal life.

“You do not know what you are asking,” Jesus replied. “Can you drink the cup I will drink, or be baptized with the baptism I will undergo?”

“We can,” the brothers answered. “You will drink the cup that I drink,” Jesus said, “and you will be baptized with the baptism that I undergo.

When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John.

Next, they came to Jericho. And as Jesus and His disciples were leaving Jericho with a large crowd, a blind beggar named Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting beside the road.

Then Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, He went out to Bethany with the Twelve.

“Teacher,” they said, “we know that You are honest and seek favor from no one. Indeed, You are impartial and teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not? Should we pay them or not?”

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

…and to love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself. This is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

…and to love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself. This is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

…and to love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself. This is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

David himself calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?” And the large crowd listened to Him with delight.

At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

While Jesus was in Bethany reclining at the table in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke open the jar and poured it on Jesus’ head.

The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them whenever you want. But you will not always have Me.

…and whichever house he enters, say to the owner, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is My guest room, where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?’

When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve.

And while they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, one of you who is eating with Me will betray Me.”

He answered, “It is one of the Twelve—the one who is dipping his hand into the bowl with Me.

But Peter kept insisting, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the others said the same thing.

He took with Him Peter, James, and John, and began to be deeply troubled and distressed.

Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch.”

While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests, scribes, and elders.

Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him and lead Him away securely.”

Jesus asked the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me as you would an outlaw?

Every day I was with you, teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest Me. But this has happened that the Scriptures would be fulfilled.”

Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the officers and warmed himself by the fire.

“I am,” said Jesus, “and you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power and coming with the clouds of heaven.”

Then some of them began to spit on Him. They blindfolded Him, struck Him with their fists, and said to Him, “Prophesy!” And the officers received Him with slaps in His face.

…and saw him warming himself there. She looked at Peter and said, “You also were with Jesus the Nazarene.”

And a man named Barabbas was imprisoned with the rebels who had committed murder during the insurrection.

So Pilate asked them again, “What then do you want me to do with the One you call the King of the Jews?”

They kept striking His head with a staff and spitting on Him. And they knelt down and bowed before Him.

There they offered Him wine mixed with myrrh, but He did not take it.

Along with Jesus, they crucified two robbers, one on His right and one on His left.

Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and believe!” And even those who were crucified with Him berated Him.

And someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine. He put it on a reed and held it up for Jesus to drink, saying, “Leave Him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to take Him down.”

These women had followed Jesus and ministered to Him while He was in Galilee, and there were many other women who had come up to Jerusalem with Him.

When Pilate had confirmed it with the centurion, he granted the body to Joseph.

She went and told those who had been with Him, who were mourning and weeping.

…they will pick up snakes with their hands, and if they drink any deadly poison, it will not harm them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will be made well.”

When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and gripped with fear.

…for he will be great in the sight of the Lord. He shall never take wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit even from his mother’s womb.

The angel appeared to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”

So the angel told her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.

When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.

For He has looked with favor on the humble state of His servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed.

He has performed mighty deeds with His arm; He has scattered those who are proud in the thoughts of their hearts.

He has filled the hungry with good things, but has sent the rich away empty.

Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home.

Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they rejoiced with her.

All their neighbors were filled with awe, and people throughout the hill country of Judea were talking about these events.

And all who heard this wondered in their hearts and asked, “What then will this child become?” For the Lord’s hand was with him.

Then his father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied:

He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to him in marriage and was expecting a child.

And suddenly there appeared with the angel a great multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying:

And the Child grew and became strong. He was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon Him.

Then He went down to Nazareth with them and was obedient to them. But His mother treasured up all these things in her heart.

And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.

Produce fruit, then, in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham.

John replied, “Whoever has two tunics should share with him who has none, and whoever has food should do the same.”
