28 AND it came to pass when Jesus had ended these words, that the people were amazed at his teaching: 29 for he taught them as having authority; and not as the Scribes.

ther, Come,' and he cometh :
and to my servant, Do this,'
and he doth it." 10 Now Jesus
hearing this, wondered, and said
to those who followed, "Verily,
I tell you, that not even in Israel
have I found so great faith.
And I assure you, that many shall
come from the east and the
west, and shall place themselves
at table with Abraham, and
Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom
of heaven: 12 but the sons of
the kingdom shall be thrust out
into darkness: there shall be
weeping, and gnashing of teeth."
13 And Jesus said to the centu-
rion, "Go; and according as
thou hast believed, so be it done

to thee." And his servant was rebuked the winds and the sea : healed in that very hour. and there was a great calm. 27 14 AND Jesus coming into And the men wondered saying, Peter's house, saw his wife's" What personage is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!"

mother lying sick of a fever. 15 And having touched her hand, the fever left her : and she arose, and ministered unto them.

16 Now when evening was come, they brought to him many demoniacs: and he expelled the spirits with a word, and cured all the sick: 17 Thus verifying the saying of the prophet Isaiah, "He took away our infirmities, and removed our diseases."

18 BUT Jesus seeing great multitudes about him, gave orders to depart to the opposite shore. 19 And a certain scribe coming, said to him, " Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest." 20 And Jesus said to him, "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have places of shelter: but the Son of man hath not where to rest his head." 21 And another of his disciples said to him, "Sir, suffer me first to go and bury my father." 22 But Jesus said to him, "Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead."

28 AND when he was come to the other side, into the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two demoniacs, coming out of the tombs very fierce, so that no one could pass along by that way. 29 And, lo, they cried out, saying, "What hast thou to do with us, thou Son of God? Art thou come hither to torment us before the time?" 30 Now there was at some distance from them a herd of many swine feeding. 31 So the demons besought him saying, "If thou cast us out, send us into the herd of swine." And he said to them, " Go." And when they were come out, they went into the swine: and, lo, the whole herd ran violently down a precipice into the sea, and perished in the waters. 33 And the herdsmen fled, and went away into the city, and reported all this; and what had happened to the demoniacs. 34 And, lo, the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and having seen him, they besought him to depart out of their territory.

23 AND when he had gone into a ship, his disciples followed him. 24 And, lo, a great tempest arose in the sea, so that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep. 25 And his disciples came and awoke him, say-him a paralytic, lying on a bed : ing, "Master, save us: we perish." 26 And he said to them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?" Then he arose and

And the woman was well from that hour.) 23 And Jesus coming into the ruler's house, and perceiving the musicians and the crowd making a noise, 24 said to them, "Withdraw for the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth." And they derided him. 25 But when the people were put out, he enter

27 AND as Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying out, and saying, "Son of David, have pity on us." 28 And being come into the house, the blind men approached him and Jesus said to them, "Do ye believe that I can do this? They answered, "Yes Master." 29 Then he touched their eyes, saying, "According to your faith be it unto you." 30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, "See that no one know it." 31 But being departed, they spread his fame through all that country.

32 AND as they went out, lo, there was brought to him a dumb demoniac. 33 And the demon being cast out, the dumb spake; and the multitude wondered, saying, "It was never seen thus in Israel." 34 But the Pharisees said, "He casteth out demons by the prince of the demons.

CH. X. 1 AND having called to him his twelve disciples, he gave them power over impure spirits, to cast them out, and to cure every disease and every malady. 2 Now these are the names of the twelve apostles: First, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alpheus, and Lebbeus [surnamed Thaddeus ;] 4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also delivered him up.

5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, "Go NOT into the way of the gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not. 6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7 And as ye go, preach, saying,

16" Behold, I send you forth as sheep amidst wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. 17 And beware of men for they will deliver you up to councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues. 18 And ye will be brought before governors and kings on my account; for a testimony to them and to the gentiles. 19 But when they deliver you up, take no anxious thought how or what ye shall speak: [for it shall be given you at the time what ye shall speak.] 20 For it is not ye who speak, but the spirit of your Father which speaketh in you. 21 Now the brother will deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child; and the children will rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death. 22 And ye will be hated by all men on account of my name: but he who endureth to the end, shall be preserved. 23 But when they persecute you in one city, flee ye into another; and if they persecute you out of this, flee ye into another.

tell you, Ye shall not have finished the cities of Israel, till the Son of man come.

24 "A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master. 25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his teacher, and the servant as his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they call those of his household! 26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, which shall not be revealed; and nothing hidden, which shall not be known: 27 what I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that proclaim ye upon the house tops: 28 and fear not those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him that is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny ? and yet not one of them falleth [to the ground] without your Father. 30 And even the hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
