PREFACE

Even at the beginning of 1927, by invitation of Oberlin College, I was to deliver the Haskell Lectures. But I fell sick of malaria at the close of November, 1926, after
the conclusion of our first campaign of excavations at Ephesus, and was compelled to abandon my visit to America. Now I was favored, in the spring of 1929, to heed
a renewed gracious invitation and to deliver the Haskell Lectures from April 10th to 17th in the First Church at Oberlin in English as here presented.

It is a pleasant duty for me now to express my grateful thanks to the Graduate School of Theology at Oberlin (Ohio) for their invitation and their kindly reception,
especially to Dean T. W. Graham and President E. H. Wilkins. I consider the two weeks which I was privileged to spend in inspiring exchange with the faculty and
students of the distinguished college an exquisite experience in my academic life.

The main credit for putting the text into English goes to my young friend Mr. Robert Hughes at Bangor (North Wales). To my esteemed fellow worker Professor
Clarence Tucker Craig, Ph.D., D.D., at Oberlin I am greatly obliged for smoothing the English idiom of the manuscript for publication; he was also in other respects,
during my sojourn at Oberlin, a devoted helper.

The lectures are printed in the present volume essentially as they were delivered. A German edition is for the present not planned, which was also the case with my
Selly Oak Lectures.

THE ORIGIN OF THE NEW TESTAMENT (A)

The Haskell Lectures, with which we shall be occupied during the next few days, are entitled The New Testament in the Light of Modern Research. Naturally, there
will be an essential connection between all of the lectures.

First, we shall deal with the Origin of the New Testament. We shall seek to answer the questions how and when it happened that the individual parts of the New
Testament were written, and how and when these separate parts, and only these, came to form a whole, a book, precisely the New Testament.

Then, having considered the Origin of the New Testament, we shall have prepared the way for the inquiry into the language of the New Testament. The interest in this
subject is not confined to the specialist who has mastered the Greek language. It seems to me to be of great importance also for the wide circle of educated Christians,
because modern scientific research into the language of the New Testament has produced results which have much more than a formal philological significance. They
enable us to understand the native power and originality of the New Testament and, consequently, of Early Christianity, in quite a different way from that which was
possible in former times. Already they have had considerable influence on the new attempts to translate the New Testament into present-day language. I may mention
the English and American translations by Dr. Moffatt and Dr. Goodspeed. 1

Then we shall speak about the New Testament in World History, reviewing the various fortunes of the New Testament during its uniquely rich history through more
than eighteen centuries down to the present day, a subject which hitherto has not been sufficiently investigated, but which, I believe, is among the most important for
Christian practice.

With this we are brought face to face with a question which can never be raised with sufficient earnestness, a question which has quite a peculiar interest for the critical
realism of the modern man the question of the Value of the New Testament. We shall approach this question in two ways: firstly we shall inquire into the historical value
of the New Testament, and secondly into its religious value.

The way in which I shall answer these questions is naturally determined by the peculiarity of my personal studies. The expositions are given to you as my own scientific
conclusions and as such you may test and judge them. No one except the speaker is responsible for them, although many of the conclusions which I shall give here are
shared by others. The scientific investigator can never be satisfied with the mere repetition of the opinions of authorities. All respect is due to the authorities; without
them we could have done nothing. But our ultimate purpose is not to ascertain the opinion of another about the truth, but rather to find the truth for ourselves as we see
it. With our own eyes we will peer behind the curtain which veils the mysteries of the past.

This desire for the truth itself is the starting point of every real scientific investigation. Although this desire may often produce in us a just feeling of manly pride, it will
ultimately make us humble and modest. Alone, on the steep slopes of the heights of knowledge, depending on no one, faced by the inevitable problems, we very soon
perceive the limits of our horizon and the fallibility of our intellectual powers. In emphasizing personal responsibility for the conclusions there is also a confession of our
own insufficiency and an admission of our liability to error.

Therefore, I do not wish you to receive my conclusions without criticism. It is also your task to see for yourselves.

I have just indicated that the characteristic features of my answer have been derived from my personal studies, and of these let me say a few words which will also
ultimately make us humble and modest. Alone, on the steep slopes of the heights of knowledge, depending on no one, faced by the inevitable problems, we very soon
perceive the limits of our horizon and the fallibility of our intellectual powers. In emphasizing personal responsibility for the conclusions there is also a confession of our
own insufficiency and an admission of our liability to error.

Therefore, I do not wish you to receive my conclusions without criticism. It is also your task to see for yourselves.

I have just indicated that the characteristic features of my answer have been derived from my personal studies, and of these let me say a few words which will also
serve at the beginning as a general preparation. The whole attitude of my studies of Early Christianity in general and toward the New Testament in particular receives its
characteristic features from the fact that I endeavor to see them as clearly as possible from the background of their own age, that is, the early days of the Roman
Empire, especially in the way in which that period has been made known to us by the archeological discoveries of the last decades. Whenever it is possible, I try to
understand the age of the origin of the New Testament from its own monuments.

It was the impressions of my early youth in my Rhineland home which first drew my attention to the monuments of the Roman Empire. Through my father I first was
introduced to those Roman antiquities of my homeland. Then as a pupil of the classical State-school at Wiesbaden, through the monuments which are there in the
Museum like the Mithra-stone of Heddernheim, and through the excellent personal influence of teachers, I was filled with lasting love for antiquity.

Later, as a young scholar, I penetrated deeper into that amazing world of research, upon the entrance to which the Nineteenth Century has written a name in gold - the
name of Theodore Mommsen. In close intercourse with pupils of Mommsen at Marburg and at Heidelberg, and soon working on the enigmatic monuments themselves,
for fifteen years, at home in my study, I set myself to the task of endeavoring to understand the age of the origin of Christianity and the New Testament from its own
relics.

Then in 1906 and later in 1909 I was able to make long journeys into Greece, Asia Minor, Syria, Palestine, and Egypt in order to see, with my own eyes, the world in
which the New Testament originated, the sunny wonderworld of the Near East.

Under the impressions of these travels I became more and more convinced of the importance of Asia Minor, and in particular of Ephesus, the capital of the Roman
province of Asia, for the proper estimation of the letters of Paul and the writings of John. For that reason I have spent much time and strength during the last years in the
attempt to revive archeological research in Asia Minor and especially the excavating work at Ephesus, which had come to a standstill during the war. The scholars of
the Austrian Archeological Institute of Vienna had done excellent work in Ephesus before the war. One of the things that give me the greatest satisfaction is that in 1926
I succeeded in getting together a considerable fund for the work in Ephesus. Austria gave, in Professor Joseph Kiel, a brilliant leader for the new excavating work. So
we were able, in 1926, 1927, and 1928, to make three big and successful expeditions to Ephesus. These Ephesus days were of exceptional value to me. I could stay
for many weeks on the site of the metropolis of Paul and John, and in that way enrich my mental picture of the eastern home of Christianity.

In consequence of these experiences and studies, when I undertake a scientific study of Early Christianity and the New Testament in their own age I must lay more
emphasis than has generally been done in the past on the following points: first that of the history of culture, literary as well as unliterary; secondly, that of the history of
language, and lastly that of cult history. This last expression, "cult history," may perhaps sound strange to some of you. The exact meaning of this technical word has
been explained in the new edition of my book on Paul. 2

With what has already been said, I believe that the way is now prepared for us to travel together. Now I may undertake to guide you over the first stage of our journey.
We shall seek to understand the Origin of the New Testament.

The inquiry into the Origins of the New Testament is a historical one, a problem for the science of history. It is a question concerning an event, a fact, which lies in the
past: How did the New Testament originate?

Through the centuries the only answer to this question has been a religious one. The fathers of Protestant dogmatics have maintained a view of the Holy Scriptures in
accordance with the teachings of the Rabbis, the Church Fathers, and the theologians of the Middle Ages, namely, that the New Testament came into existence through
divine inspiration, that is, through divine suggestion. Or, still more definitely, the Spirit of God breathed the words of the New Testament into the Apostles as if the
words were dictated to them. Just as a stenographer receiving letters from a business man works quite mechanically, so were the Apostles pens and pencils of the Holy
Spirit. This dogma of verbal inspiration of every letter of the New Testament, which rightly can be called mechanical inspiration, is now abandoned in all scientific
theology.

We cannot accept the religious answer which has been given to our historical question, that is, the answer given by the theory of verbal inspiration. Why do we reject
it? We reject it, not because it is a religious answer, and not because it speaks of inspiration. There is such a thing as inspiration. There is artistic inspiration and poetic
inspiration. And there is also prophetic inspiration. Without inspiration there would be no Christianity, and the New Testament would never have originated.

On the other hand, I could also give a religious answer to this historical question from the standpoint of my Christian belief in Divine Providence. By comparing the New
Testament to a great church building I could say: We must thank the Master-Builder for this sanctuary. It was according to His plans that the Evangelists and the
Apostles worked. The foundation which was laid by the Master-Builder Himself is the personality of Jesus and His eternal words. On this foundation the Apostles
began the building work with massive, hewn stones. From the workshop of Paul came the living forest of aspiring columns, on which the dome of the Acts of the
Apostles rests securely. The big windows with the crystal splendor of their richly colored paintings are the Revelation of John. The Fourth Gospel is the tower reaching
upward, its open work allowing a part of the blue sky to glitter through. And the Epistles are the different toned but harmonious bells which ring to call together the
people of the Lord.

That would be our own attempt to give a religious answer to this historical question. And because we have our own religious answer we respect and appreciate the
religious motives underlying the old doctrine of inspiration. We may say again, it is not because it is a religious answer that we reject the theory of verbal inspiration, nor
because it speaks of inspiration, but rather because it conceives of inspiration as mechanical, and this mechanical conception eliminates what is best in the Evangelists
and the Apostles, their individuality. It degrades Paul, John, and all the others into mere writing machines. In order to make the letter sacred, the old view deprived the
Spirit of what makes him a Spirit.

But, further, our own religious answer which we have put in the place of the obsolete doctrine of inspiration is not a sufficient answer to the historical question.
Historical questions demand historical answers. If I stand before a cathedral in a strange town and ask an old native: "Who built this cathedral?" and the old man
answers solemnly: "We must thank God's good grace for this wonderful building," he has undoubtedly given me an answer to which there can be no objection, a good
sensible answer. But he has not answered my historical question. I want to know something of the men who built the cathedral, its date, and further fortunes.

The question as to the origin of the New Testament has a similar meaning. It demands an historical answer, without disputing, in any way, the truth and the value of a
religious answer.

The New Testament, as we have it, is a book, and it originated in an age which was full of books. The age of the Roman Empire is, in writings and books, one of the
richest we know. And this wealth of the early Imperial period appears, above all, in the sphere of literature. It is true that all the literature of that period has not been
preserved for us today. In the storms of the centuries much of it was blown away and lost forever. But what has been preserved justifies us in regarding, particularly the
religious answer.

The New Testament, as we have it, is a book, and it originated in an age which was full of books. The age of the Roman Empire is, in writings and books, one of the
richest we know. And this wealth of the early Imperial period appears, above all, in the sphere of literature. It is true that all the literature of that period has not been
preserved for us today. In the storms of the centuries much of it was blown away and lost forever. But what has been preserved justifies us in regarding, particularly the
days of Augustus, as the Golden Age of Roman literature. It is the age of the poets, Horace, Virgil, Propertius, Tibullus, and Ovid, and of the historian Livy, and a
series of other brilliant Latin authors, which comes to an end under the successors of Augustus. The Greek writings, which were produced in the early days of the
Empire, are also significant, especially the scientific literature. Diodor of Sicily undertook a history of the world in forty volumes, Dionysius of Halicarnassus wrote a
Roman history in twenty volumes, and Strabo published his magnificent geographical work in seventeen books.

But that is not all. Even more than what was written by men of literature was written by the officers of the Roman provinces and cities and in private life. We mentioned
the men of literature first because it is their works which generally engage our attention. But if we wish to recognize the age of the origin of Christianity as an age rich in
writing we must not forget the vast amount which was written at that time for the purpose of the state, law-giving, administration of justice, for military purposes, for
social life in families and communities and in general trade.

That is to say, the official writing was, in proportion, no smaller than it is with us today. We have known this for a long time from the multitude of inscriptions belonging
to that period. Laws, Imperial decrees, and treaties of state, and many other things used to be inscribed in stones, or cast in bronze, and the inscribed stones or tablets
were stored in public places, in temples and state buildings. We have to thank these circumstances that we have such a significant remainder of the official writing
preserved for us.

During the last decades other discoveries were added to the stone and bronze inscriptions, and these have given us a really startling glimpse of the extent of writing in
the early Imperial days. In the ancient wonderland on the Nile, in Egypt, during the excavations among the ruins of ancient cities, places have been discovered where in
olden times all kinds of worthless rubbish were thrown. In these refuse and rubbish heaps a great mass of Greek writings has been found, whose contents, when
deciphered, proved to be of the most miscellaneous kind: lease and rent arrangements, bills and receipts, decrees issued by the authorities, proclamations, sentences of
court, minutes of judicial proceedings, tax assessments, and many other things, especially private letters. Most of these fragments belong to the days of the Roman
Empire. They were written upon the most durable materials, either on pieces of pottery these are usually known by the Greek name ostraca or on leaves of papyrus,
the forerunner of our paper.

The papyri sheets were made in Egypt from the pith of the papyrus plant, and the durability of this writing material is proved by the fact that those leaves have been in
Egyptian soil, without any further protection, for fifteen to sixteen centuries, some for three or four thousand years and more. When they were discovered part of them
appeared quite fresh The oldest written papyrus known to us date from about two thousand six hundred years B.C., and is therefore about four thousand five hundred
years old. In our soil and under our northern sky this would have been quite impossible. For the preservation of so many thousands of these time-honored texts we
must thank, firstly, the dry Egyptian soil, which, under the blazing African sun, is in many parts never moistened by a shower, and, secondly, the indestructible nature of
the papyrus sheets and potsherds upon which the texts are written. The papyri, which were formerly thrown into the refuse heaps as waste and rubbish, are today
carefully packed between air-tight, cemented glass plates, the most costly treasures in our libraries and museums.

These Egyptian papyri discoveries offer a vast amount of new knowledge to the student of antiquity. For details, I may perhaps refer you to the studies which I have
published in my book Light from the Ancient East. 3

A clear light is shed upon the life of the people in the ancient world, life in the villages and the small towns, in trade and travel, in matters of law and district
administration. For our purpose we can learn through these discoveries of the great amount of writing which was done in the Roman Empire at the time of the rise of
Christianity. Further, from the Egyptian discoveries we may draw conclusions about writing in other provinces of the Empire. We have hardly any papyri texts of that
time from Asia Minor, Greece, Italy, Gaul, Spain, and the other provinces, but we have a great number of stone inscriptions.

Moreover, we learn, not only that there was a great deal of writing, but also that there was much reading. Among the Egyptian papyri texts are found remains of books,
for example, Homer and other poets. In the Italian city, Herculaneum, which was buried by the terrible eruption of Vesuvius in A.D., modern excavators have found
charred bookrolls. An experience of Paul's in Ephesus shows that popular literature was not neglected. A number of sorcerers carried on their business in that city,
offering their hocus-pocus to a credulous people in return for money. They were consulted during sickness, or to restore lost property, to injure a hated enemy, or to
prosper business, and they performed all kinds of things, possible and impossible. They had books of charms, that is, collections of all kinds of mysterious
prescriptions, powerful exorcisms, and terrible curses. Paul opposed these mysterious gentlemen and made such a good impression that many of them were converted.
The result was that they brought out their books, piled them up in a public place, and burned them. According to Acts 19:19 these books were valued at fifteen
hundred pounds sterling. We can gather from this narrative how bulky was this magic literature, how widely it was circulated and read among the people.

In the home of Christianity in the stricter sense, in Palestine, a great deal was written and read at this time. Disregarding the works of the Jewish authors and the writing
done in public and private life, we must lay special emphasis on the fact that in Palestine a certain book, a distinct "scripture," enjoyed unique reverence and formed the
central point of the whole religious life. Among the Jews in Palestine we find a "Holy Book," a "Holy Scripture," taken over from the Fathers, or, more precisely, a
collection of the Holy Scriptures of the past in the Hebrew language. They were the same scriptures as those which we usually call the "Old" Testament. Preeminent
among the books of the Old Testament were the first; as the "Law" they were the highest authorities for every believing son of Israel. The voice of the living God
Himself could be heard in every letter of the Law; every point and line was honored and respected as the expression of the divine will. The words of the prophets and
the other holy scriptures had also a unique authority, and, like the law, they were read in the divine services on the Sabbaths. With the Law they formed the basis of the
religious lessons in the Temple and in the synagogues. A special class devoted itself to the study and exposition of the Holy Scriptures, that is, the professional scribes.
The guidance of the people was entirely in their hands; they possessed, not only the truth of the Law, Prophets, and Writings, but, in addition, an oral tradition which
added much to the written one.

Also the Man from whom the greatest spiritual impulse has come, an impulse which is felt through two thousand years of Christian history, Jesus of Nazareth, in
common with His disciples, had the greatest reverence for the Holy Scriptures. It is not insignificant, in this connection, that in the narrative of Luke we find Him when
He was twelve years old, in the Temple sitting among the learned, listening to them and asking questions. We gather from the words of Jesus, which have been handed
down to us, that He was intimately acquainted with the contents of the Holy Scriptures, and had the greatest love for them. Yet He did not bow down to the letter of
the Law, for example, the Sabbath commandment; He performed works of relief and love to His neighbor on the Sabbath. But still he would not annul the Holy
Scriptures. He even confessed once, "Think not that I came to destroy the law or the prophets: I came not to destroy, but to fulfill. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven
and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass away from the law" (Matthew 5:17 ff.).

Let us look back for a moment: Christianity arose at a time when a great deal was being written, in an age of extensive literature and of vast public and private writing.
Christianity originated in a country in which a book, as Holy Scriptures, enjoyed unique reverence because men heard the voice of God Himself in its lines. Jesus of
Nazareth, the Prophet of the Gospel, and His circle of disciples paid all respect and reverence to this Holy Book, as their inheritance from their fathers and forefathers.

    this is certain.                                                                                                                                   Page 3 / 1773

But it is also quite as certain that the Gospel itself did not begin with a sacred book, not even with a single written page, or one inscription on a stone or in bronze.

Jesus Himself has not left a single line written by his own hand, and He never commanded one of his intimate friends, saying, "Take a pen and write down the words
which I say unto thee." Only once, in the narratives, do we hear of Him writing, and that when He was called to pronounce a sentence on an adulteress. But even then,
He did not write on papyrus, or parchment, or clay, or marble, but in the dust (John 8:6-8. In a few moments children, a puff of wind, or the feet of a hurrying traveler
had blotted out the written words of Jesus forever.

Of course Jesus took up the pen occasionally. As a child he learned the Aleph, Beth, and Gimel; later, as a man, He now and again signed a document and possibly He
wrote a letter. But if Jesus wrote He certainly wrote no book, still less a sacred book for future generations. Jesus is not a man of literature, and in that respect He
differs from many of His famous contemporaries. Neither is Jesus the author of a sacred book. In this respect He differs from other prophets, and from many of the
great founders of religions. It is part of the unsurpassable greatness of the historical Jesus that He did not come forward as a lawgiver with sections and paragraphs, but
rather as a sower who scattered with blessing hands the divine seed over the field. This seed He left to itself, so convinced was He of its vitality (Mark 4:26 ff.). The
Jesus who wrote no book but staked all on the Spirit and the living Word surpassed all the book prophets. If Christianity began with Jesus, then it can be said that it did
not begin with a book. Christianity is older than the sacred book of Christianity, Christianity is older than the New Testament. In the beginning was, not the book and
not the letter; in the beginning was the Word and the Spirit. First of all Christianity learned to pray, afterward it learned to write - just like the children. The prayer, "Our
Father," is older than the New Testament; the Gospel is older than the Gospels. Thus we place a non-literary, a pre-literary period in the history of Primitive
Christianity, before the literary period in which the first Christian books were written.

The classic period of Early Christianity is the pre-literary period. Classical Early Christianity is first of all a non-literary, spiritual movement, in contrast to the literary
culture of the world around it. Theological scholars have brought it far too much into contact with this literary culture. We must emphasize the contrast, and in this
direction lies the task of scientific research of the future, and here also is the seed of a fruitful, practical appreciation of Early Christianity.

From this it can be said that Christianity, in its origin, is not a book-religion, as many have asserted. Later there came a period in which it became a book-religion. But
originally, it was not so. The Book, the New Testament, is really the result of Christianity. It is true that Jesus and His followers honored a book, the old Bible of the
people of Israel, as a divine authority. But the fact that it owned the Old Testament does not distinguish Early Christianity from Judaism. What distinguished Early
Christianity from Judaism was, not the possession of a book, but rather the possession of the personality of Jesus of Nazareth. With Jesus everything depends on the
vitality of the Word, on deep thinking, on a living, winged Spirit, on the simple, triumphant Truth. In the beginning was, not the book, in the beginning was the Word
which had become flesh in Jesus of Nazareth.

***

Again, the second great figure which stands clearly outlined on the threshold of Christianity, Paul of Tarsus, "the Apostle of Jesus Christ," also belongs to the
nonliterary, pre-literary period of Christianity. Paul is not a man of literature, although he has been treated as such by many scholars.

That he has been so considered is, perhaps, pardonable. We possess quite a number of letters from the Apostle, and these have come down to us as part of a book.
And then, unfortunately without making clear the great distinction between what is literary and what is not, these letters were designated as epistolary literature, and
Paul as the greatest author of Early Christianity. But both designations are momentous misjudgments.

Between the genuine, confidential letter, only one copy of which is sent to the addressee, and the literary epistle, re-duplicated into hundreds of copies, and intended to
interest the public, there is the same difference as between life and art. The genuine letter is a reflection of life, just like a confidential conversation between two friends.
The literary epistle is a piece of art, like a Platonic dialogue.

The letters of Paul have often been treated as literary epistles, but really they are not such. Paul's letters are genuine, confidential letters, not intended for the public or
for posterity. They were not even intended for the Christian public of that time. They were for the addressees only. When Paul wishes a certain letter to be read in
another community he expressly says so (Colossians 4:16), and the nonliterary character of his letter does not suffer in anyway.

The letters of Paul were real non-literary letters. Innumerable mistakes made in the study of Paul arise from the fact that his writings have been treated as literary. Too
often they have been regarded as dogmatic pamphlets, as theological declarations each one supplementing the other to form a great, complete system. And because
they contain, like all letters, parts which are irreconcilable with each other, they have been declared, partly or nearly all, to be "not genuine."

The closer relation of modern study to real life, and a better knowledge of the working and the possibilities of a great man's mind, has conceptions of an older research
which was out of touch with the world. The essential genuineness of Paul's letters will be admitted when the irreconcilable parts in them are seen as proofs of their
originality.

Real difficulties remain only in the case of the so-called Pastoral letters, those to Timothy and Titus. I can only just touch the problem here, for time will not allow of a
detailed treatment. But it seems to me certain that also in the Pastoral letters we have, at least, a good number of genuine lines by Paul.

The origin of the individual letters of Paul also forms a very rich chapter of Bible study, which I can only glance at hastily. I would answer the main problems of this
chapter something like this:

The majority of the letters of Paul which we have were written during the last decade of his life, under the Roman Emperors Claudius and Nero. The chronology of the
individual letters is not yet fully ascertained. Positive dates are only of a more or less hypothetical nature. Through the discovery of an inscription in Delphi we are,
however, in a position to make the chronology of Paul and of Early Christianity more certain. I have published the inscription in facsimile and dealt with it in detail in my
book Paul. It enables us to ascertain the date of office of the proconsul who is called Gallio in chapter eighteen of Acts, and from that the date of Paul's first sojourn in
Corinth, that is, from the beginning of the year fifty A.D. until the end of the summer in the year fifty-one A.D.

The two earliest of Paul's letters which we possess were written at this time-the First and Second Thessalonians.

With regard to the remaining letters of Paul I have not yet come to a definite conclusion in my studies. But I believe, if the real chronology is to be ascertained, that there
are quite a number

(which is really a letter to the church at Laodicea) and the letter to the Philippians. Most scholars place these letters in the time of Paul's imprisonment in Rome; but I
believe that this view is now untenable; they belong to Ephesus between the time of the composition of the first and the second letters to the Corinthians.
The two earliest of Paul's letters which we possess were written at this time-the First and Second Thessalonians.

With regard to the remaining letters of Paul I have not yet come to a definite conclusion in my studies. But I believe, if the real chronology is to be ascertained, that there
are quite a number of questions to be raised besides the usual ones. In particular an imprisonment or divers imprisonments of Paul in Ephesus should be taken into
consideration, during which the so-called imprisonment letters were written, namely, the letters to Philemon and to the Colossians, the so called letter to the Ephesians
(which is really a letter to the church at Laodicea) and the letter to the Philippians. Most scholars place these letters in the time of Paul's imprisonment in Rome; but I
believe that this view is now untenable; they belong to Ephesus between the time of the composition of the first and the second letters to the Corinthians.

I would offer the following as the historical order of the letters of Paul, omitting the Pastoral letters:

I and II Thessalonians written in Corinth 50-51 A.D.

I Corinthians, Galatians, Philemon, Colossians, So-called Ephesians (Laodicea), Philippians. All these six letters probably written in Ephesus between 52 and 55 A.D.

II Corinthians written in Macedonia in summer 55 A.D.

Romans, Chapters 1-15, written in Corinth in Winter 55-56 A.D.

Romans, Chapter16 (which is, in my opinion, a separate letter to Ephesus), written in Corinth in winter 55-56 A.D.

These dates should not be taken as final.

With regard to the external circumstances of the origin of Paul's letters it can be said that they were written without much preparation or anxious reflection, and without
a carefully worked-out plan or a conscious striving after rhetorical effect. He dictated the majority of them to a scribe, perhaps a few of them while working at his trade
as a tent maker. Then he would insert a few lines in his large, clumsy, laborer's handwriting - compare Galatians 6:11 "See what big letters I make, when I write you in
my own hand" (Moffatt's translation). Some letters were written in great haste, possibly during a journey, for example, II Corinthians, which is much more vivid because
of that than the letter to the Romans, which Paul probably wrote in a period of peace and quiet. He can hardly have made it a rule to duplicate his letters for others.
Only one copy of the letter would be written, and that one would be sent to the addressee. In a few cases he may have retained a draft of the letter.

The more we recognize the natural, spontaneous, and unliterary origin of the letters of Paul, the better prepared we are to understand them. They originated in exactly
the same way as every other real letter does, or at least, should; not through a desire for great literary publicity, but through the necessity for personal communication
between man and man. Like every other genuine letter, when it is free from affectation, and is naive in the good sense of the word, it reproduces the personality of the
writer, sometimes faintly, other times clearly. Such are the letters of Paul. Every one of them is a picture of him, not a small volume from the collected works of Paul the
author, but an item from the life of the greatest of Christian missionaries.

The later fortunes of the letters of Paul are the same as those of letters in general. Part of them were lost, the remainder were in the hands of the addressees in Corinth,
Philippi, or Rome, or Paul himself had a draft of a few of them. But as the figure of the Apostle, after his death, came to fill an increasingly important place in the
thoughts and reverence of his followers, greater importance was attached to the remainder of his letters. Probably before the end of the first century, those Pauline
letters which could be found were collected and published, and so it became possible at a later time to insert them in the canon of a Sacred Book. But this collecting
and publishing did not change the real character of the letters of Paul in any sense; they remained genuine letters, whether they were in the possession of the small
churches in Corinth and Galatia, or, a century later, were well-known to the whole of Christendom as part of the New Testament which was gradually being formed.
Paul is a letter writer and not a man of letters; with Jesus he belongs to the non-literary period of Christianity.

***

It seems time for us to speak at last of the New Testament, or of a Christian book or books. We set out to describe the origin of the book, but, so far, we have only
said that Jesus and Paul wrote no books. But there is a very good reason for my dwelling so long with the non-literary period of Primitive Christianity. I feel that the
majority of scholars have said far too little about the non-literary period of Christianity. Setting out with the opinion that everything that is written is literature, they have
often badly misrepresented it, and especially the figure of Paul. Therefore, it will be for our good to put that side in the background for once, and determine to picture
the origin of the New Testament so that we see at the beginning, not the era of books, but the era of the book-less creative personalities; the period, not of the letter,
but of the Spirit of God working in the living words of the Master, of the Spirit of Christ working in the words of His Apostle.

So we can distinguish three periods in the history of the origin of the New Testament:

1.The pre-literary period of the Gospel of Jesus and of His Apostle, Paul.

2.The literary period of the Gospels and other Apostolic books.

3.The period of the formation of the Canon, which brought together the non-literary and the literary remains of the Apostolic period into the Canon of the New
Testament.

We have yet to sketch roughly the main lines of the last two periods.

II
THE ORIGIN OF THE NEW TESTAMENT (B)

The beginnings of the literary period lie in obscurity. But this much can be said with certainty, that no fixed, mechanical line can be drawn between the non-literary and
the literary periods. The literary period began already in the lifetime of the Apostle Paul. He himself was non-literary, but we see the beginnings of Christian literature in
the first Apostolic generation. I use the word "literature" here in the sense of writings composed for the public in definite, fixed " forms." What has come down to us of
the early Christian literature enables us to recognize three characteristic features which I believe to be of great importance to our whole scientific attitude to the New
Testament:

Firstly: the old Christian literature is not world-literature, but literature for Christians.

Secondly: although it is Christian literature, it is not canonical literature for the completion of the Old Testament.

Finally: corresponding

***

The records of Jesus formed the first beginnings of Christian literature, as, for example, the Aramaic collection of the sayings of Jesus by the Apostle Matthew, which
has not been handed down to us. For us, the three Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke (the Synoptic Gospels) stand first. They bear the unmistakable characteristics
of simple, popular books in which the contents and not the form is significant. And that is the secret of their influence on all periods. They cannot be treated as critical,
historical books in the modern sense. They are primarily story books, obviously the result of bringing together unchecked the different parts of the tradition about Jesus
which were circulated among the people, at first orally, and later in a fixed written form.

The Gospel of Mark seems to be the earliest, written about the year 70 A.D. by Mark, companion of the Apostle Peter. It was used by the other two Evangelists who
may have written during the last thirty years of the First Century. Probably the Gospel of Matthew also used the collection of the words of Jesus by Matthew. Beside
the early Gospels, Luke had at his disposal other excellent sources which were most used by Mark and Matthew. The other book written by Luke, the Acts of the
Apostles, is also a popular book. It must have been written at some period before the letters of Paul had been collected and published. But the narrator had other good
sources, especially his own diary of his travels, which is employed in the "we" narratives. The Acts of the Apostles is the first history of Christian missions. That it was
written, like the Gospel which bears his name, by Luke the Physician, the companion of Paul, seems to me highly probable.

In contrast to the Synoptic Gospels stands the Gospel of John. The Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke could be called the workday Gospels. The Gospel of John is
the Sunday Gospel. Here we can hear the festival bells ringing, now softer and again louder. The historian has to consider it in connection with three other texts which
bear the name of John, those which are usually called the Johannine letters. Not one of the four texts contains the name of John, it is only found in the titles, which do
not belong to the original text but are added by the compilers of the Canon. But in the second and third letter of John the writer calls himself "Presbyteros," that is, either
"the old man," or in the technical sense, "the elder." That this man is the author also of the first letter and the Gospel is shown, not only by the style which is so
unmistakably original that it may serve for once as the criterion of the critic, but also by the religious contents of the four texts, which is throughout of the same cast. The
important task of the study of John is to grasp this religious character of the Johannine writings.

And in this connection it may be said: the Johannine picture of Christ distinguishes itself in a very marked way from that of the Synoptic Gospels. In the first place the
outline of the life of Jesus is quite different, and, besides, almost all the transmitted sayings of Jesus are different from those of the Synoptic writers, while on the other
hand their general character agrees to an extraordinary degree with the words of John in the first letter.

In the first three Gospels there stands before us a figure of flesh and blood, in the Gospel of John an ethereal, spiritual figure. We know the figure. It is the Christ which
Paul had also seen, Christ the Lord, Christ the Spirit. And so the Gospel of John is in a real sense the Pauline Gospel, the great reflection of the Christ religion of Paul.
Certainly it is not the growing, still surging Christianity of the Pauline letters, but a complete, clarified, calm Christianity. Yet it is Pauline Christianity through and through
even to a startling agreement with the favorite expressions of Paul. Therefore it is later than Paul. In the Gospel of John the non-literary Pauline Christianity has become
literary. Literary, but not philosophical (in spite of the Logos) or artificial. Even the Gospel of John is a popular book, as is shown especially by its language, and just
because of that it has had great influence on the churches of all centuries. Here again it is necessary to combat the traditional errors of research: it is essential to
recognize the Gospel of John again in all its simplicity. In that way the polemic and apologetic designs of the author become obvious.

He is struggling against different menacing groups: the disciples of John the Baptist, the Gnostics, the Jews of the big synagogues of Asia Minor, and the lukewarm, half-
hearted members of the Church. After all, in the background of his message the beginnings of an antagonism between John and Peter, that is, between Ephesus and
Rome, between the East and the West, become perceptible if you observe what John says about Peter and which traditions about Peter he omits. Behind many of his
negative sentences you can see the opposition against which he fights the good fight of faith.

Besides this it was the author's intention to provide for a lectionary, somewhat like an "evangeliarium," for the divine service. You will do justice to him if you regard his
book as a series of pericopes, of stories, often unconnected with another, not as a connected history.

In the same way the first "letter" of John, that great confession of the love of God and of fellow man, which is quite in the same spirit as the Gospel of John, is not
without such designs. This very informal text is not a letter, neither is it a literary epistle, but a simple religious tract.

The other two texts, the second and third letters of John, are genuine letters, and as such they are valuable witnesses to the personality of the "Presbyteros" whom we
have to thank for all the Johannine writings.

Who, then, is this great stranger? Is he the Apostle John, or John the Presbyteros, or another John, or is he a Christian who writes under the cover of an Apostolic
name? I will not venture to answer this question of authorship with unconditional certainty. But it seems to me very probable that the author was a personal disciple of
Jesus, perhaps John the Presbyteros. This John was the outstanding leader of the Church of Asia in the last years of the First Century. He was not the sentimental,
tearful old man of the traditional representation, but one of God's champions of heroic intolerance and at the same time the deepest Christ-mystic.

The book which now stands at the end of the New Testament, the Revelation of John, is, in every sense, a book of the people. Its literary form was already popular in
every sphere influenced by the Jews or Jewish Christians. It is clear from the book itself that the author was a Christian from Asia Minor. Probably he had become a
Christian through Judaism. In any case he was a prophet of a unique, living piety. I do not think it impossible that this book is also the work of John the Presbyteros. He
wrote his book during a period of persecution and dispersion in the last decade of the First Century. It is not improbable that he incorporated in his book older visions
of the period before the year 70 A.D. The author wrote under the conviction that the Exalted Master was behind him, and that he himself was called to communicate
the Will of the Master to the churches.

***

Further documents belonging to the end of the First Century and the beginning of the Second, which reflect the same power of Christ, are the other literary remains of
Early Christianity - the two Epistles of Peter, that of Jude and of James, and the so-called Epistle to the Hebrews. Here we have to deal not with real unliterary letters,
as in the case of the Pauline letters, but with literary epistles and pamphlets written for Christendom, forcible words of warning and of comfort. Yet we have in the
Epistle of James a document of a decidedly popular nature. The question as to the authorship and origin of these books, which all seem to be strongly influenced by the
meanwhile published collection of the Pauline letters, is much disputed. I believe that the Epistles of Peter, of Jude, and of James are pamphlets which were written at
the end of the

***

The so-called "Epistle to the Hebrews" is not an epistle but a religious tract. Its author is not known by name, but, owing to his theological training, he forms such a
striking figure in the series of early Christian authors that we can say that his little book had a unique significance in the history of Early Christianity. It is, on account of
its polished form and scholarly contents, the first example of what we can consider Christian art-literature. That means that, with this book, Christianity took the first
step out of the class in which it had its roots.

The roots of Christianity lay in the lower and middle classes; Jesus was a carpenter and Paul was a tent maker. It was the simple people of Galilee who surrounded
Jesus, and the churches of Paul were made up of slaves, of laborers, and the unknown poor of the big cities. Well-to-do and well-educated Christians were exceptions
in the early times. This social structure of Early Christianity is reflected clearly in its literature; the language, the literary types, and the contents are popular.

With the little book to the Hebrews, which was followed by others of a similar nature in the Second Century, Early Christianity stepped out of this class. A
development of great historical importance began: Christianity began to take up ancient philosophy and education.

***

So we have reached the point which gives us a glimpse of the last epoch of the history of the origin of the New Testament. The Christianity which had taken up
education is the Christianity organized in the world for the fight against the world powers, the Christianity which was, in the narrow and full sense of the word,
ecclesiastical. It is no longer the community of the saints of the old Pauline churches, who waited with ardent longing for the end of the world and the early return of the
Master. It is rather a lawfully organized corporation, with many officials and institutions, which prepared itself for a long future in this world.

This ecclesiastical Christianity, this corporation church, which from the beginning of the Second Century onward distinguished itself more and more from the simple
Apostolic corpus church, began immediately to collect the remains of the writings of the early period. It brought them together gradually, on the model of the Old
Testament, into a Sacred Book, into the Canon of the New Testament.

We have distinguished three periods in the history of the origin of the New Testament: the non-literary period, the literary period, and the period of the formation of the
Canon. The first two periods produced the texts, nonliterary and literary. The third period brought these texts together into the New Testament taking its place side by
side with the Old Testament.

***

The Pauline letters and the Gospels and the other early Christian books were never composed with a view of forming a New Testament at some future time. Neither
Jesus nor Paul left behind a New Bible, to take the place of the Old, or to take its place beside it. Both remained true to the Old Testament, and Jesus during His early
life was the authority of His disciples for everything else. The fact that Jesus Himself and His disciples held fast to the authority of the Old Testament Canon does not
contradict our statement that the earliest Christian period was a pre-canonical period. That the earliest Christians stood reverently on the ground of the Old Testament
is no characteristic feature by which early Christianity distinguished itself from Judaism. On the contrary, the reverence shown to the Old Testament is a clear indication
of the close historical connection between Christianity and Judaism. What is new, what is characteristic, and what is of unique significance for the future in Early
Christianity is not as we saw before, the Jewish Bible, but the personality and the Gospel of Jesus of Nazareth.

The Glorified Jesus remained the infallible authority for His followers. We know that especially through the indications given by Paul in his letters. It is true that Paul
stood, like every pious Jewish Christian, firmly on the ground of the Old Testament, even in every polemic against the Law. But his highest authority is the living Jesus
Christ, exalted to the Lordship of the Spirit. From Him Paul had received his revelations, and from Him, he knew, the believers received the life force. For He is the
body and His followers are the members. Paul, and with him the earliest Christians, did not refer to a written tradition of a Jesus of the past. They were able to receive
"grace for grace" from the fullness of the present living Christ. Paul was in touch with a higher world, with the Redeemer who had become Spirit, and in Him with the
Living God.

Nevertheless Paul was not without a highly honored tradition of the words and deeds of the earthly Jesus. Where a saying of Jesus was available to the Apostle,
whether it was from oral or written tradition, it removed all doubts for him. He always set the words of Jesus tower-high above his own opinion. In these traditions of
the words and deeds of Jesus, which circulated among the Christians, at first orally and later in writing, lay the first forebodings of a future Christian Canon. The first
accounts of the sayings of Jesus certainly were not composed with the intention of supplementing the Old Testament with a New, but rather out of reverence to Jesus. It
was a necessity of the Christ cult to safeguard all information concerning Him. As, in time, those who had seen and heard Jesus became fewer the more valuable
became the written tradition. When the rushing torrent of the wonderful revelations and the living force of the epigoni began to spend itself, the more indispensable
became the quiet and clear stream which rippled in the words of the Savior.

One thing in particular must have strengthened the impulse to canonize the words of Jesus. That is the conviction that the Second Coming of the Lord was not in the
near future. Paul and the believers of his time expected the day in which they would see the returning Lord face to face, in the near future. As the hope of later
generations moderated, they looked more away from the returning Lord, whom they would probably never see personally, to Him who had come, whose voice they
could hear in the pages of the Gospels. They prepared for a long future for which it was necessary to have a sound tradition of what He had commanded and
accomplished. And it is easy to understand that later in a poorer and quieter period the remains of the writings of an Apostle or of any other man of the Apostolic time
became very valuable. For example, what remained here and there in the churches of the letters of Paul would then be collected. The churches transmitted the valuable
sheets which they possessed from the hand of the holy man to other churches. Thus the confidential lines of Paul became well known throughout Christendom. Still
Luke did not know of a collection of Pauline letters. Perhaps we are allowed to link the name of Timothy with the making of the oldest collection. Probably it was
published after the Acts of the Apostles. And now it had great influence on the Catholic Epistles, the Johannine writings, and the Apostolic Fathers.

***

The Gospels and the Apostolic writings were then the two groups which came to be regarded more and more as the authority in the post-Apostolic age. And these two
groups were the crystallizing point in the making of the New Testament. We do not know when the crystallizing began, but we shall not be far wrong when we say in
the first decade of the Second Century A.D. Neither do we know where the first collection of the writings of the Apostolic age was made, nor what writings were
included in that collection. It will hardly be maintained that there was a uniform procedure in this connection. As in later centuries, so at this time of the formation of a

If one would examine very carefully the sources one would find that already in the earliest times of the formation of the Canon there were serious differences concerning
the order and dignity of certain books between the East and the West, between the Churches of Ephesus and of Rome, and generally Rome became victor in this
controversy, her victory being symbolized by the facts that Paul's letter to the Romans now stands in the beginning of the Pauline Canon and that in many codices some
other Pauline letters received the incorrect but effective certificate of origin: "written from Rome."

It is certain that the first motives for forming a Christian Canon were of a more religious nature. It was an obvious necessity of the adoring love for Jesus and His
Apostles that what could be saved of their words should be saved before those irrecoverable words were lost in oblivion.

But the interests of the Christ-cult became more and more dominant. When the time of the first gifts of grace, the first fire, the first love was past, as the organized
church entered into the fight with the world and false teaching, then as an organization it required fixed rules and standards. A Canon of its own was essential to the
Church. The collection of the legacies of Jesus and the Apostolic time, which was started by the piety of the believers, was carried on with great zeal by the men of the
Church which was becoming more and more rigidly organized. It was the needs of the Church which hastened the process of canonizing the early Christian writings.
The genesis of the New Testament runs parallel with the genesis of the old Christian Catholic Church. The separate parts of the Canon were the work of the pre-
ecclesiastical, Apostolic Christianity; the Canon itself was the work of ecclesiastical Christianity. This development is the same as the origin of Christian dogma.
Christianity did not come into the world as dogma; dogma is the product of a long period of Christian development which ran parallel with the development of the
Church. Church, Canon, and Dogma, these Three, belong together historically.

***

We can indicate more precisely those parts of the Canon which were admitted generally in the earliest times. They were, on one hand, the Gospels of Matthew, Mark,
Luke, and John; the Acts of the Apostles and the letters of Paul on the other hand. These two groups were the fixed backbone of the New Testament in the middle of
the Second Century, and there was no hesitation at any time concerning them. But the other writings had to struggle more or less for their places in the Canon. We
possess a list of canonical scriptures of the last half of the Second Century. It contains the four Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles, thirteen letters of Paul, the Epistle of
Jude, the first and second letters of John, the Wisdom of Solomon (strangely), the Revelation of John, the Revelation of Peter (this last not recognized by all of "Us"),
and similarly the Shepherd of Hermas. The Epistle to the Hebrews, the first and second Epistles of Peter, the third letter of John, and the Epistle of James are not
mentioned. I confine myself to this one example. Here we see a number of writings which we do not have in our New Testament, and a number of writings are included
in our New Testament which had not been included at that time.

***

Two books were the subjects of great controversy in the Early Church: the Revelation of John and the Epistle to the Hebrews. The Revelation of John was attacked
especially by the Greek Christians; the most distinguished church scholars raised their voices against admitting it into the Canon. On the other hand the Latin Christians
took the same attitude toward the Epistle to the Hebrews, and regarded it with grave suspicion. Also the other Catholic Epistles were partly rejected and partly
admitted; at any rate, a long time passed before they succeeded in obtaining a fixed place in the Canon.

In the third district of the Church, in Syria, we find other peculiarities. There even the four Gospels went into the background behind a Harmony of the Gospels, the
Diatessaron of Tatian, and the letters of Paul were extended by the addition of a correspondence with the Corinthians which is not genuine.

***

Thus it is possible to observe a distinct inclination toward forming a New Testament Canon in the first centuries of the Christian Church. We can also see a few points
of direction toward which this development moved. But it is quite as clear that there was great uncertainty with regard to the question which of the scriptures really
belonged to the New Testament.

When did this uncertainty cease? Strictly it never ceased in the Early Church. To speak of "the" settlement of the Canon in the Early Church is misleading. In spite of all
the measures used officially, in practice the uncertainty as to the limits of the New Testament remained, to a great extent in Eastern Christendom, and to a less extent in
Latin Christendom. In Latin Christendom it was three synods of the Fourth and Fifth centuries which determined the number and order of the Books of the New
Testament as we have them today: the synod of Hippo in the year 393 A.D., and the synods of Carthage in 397 A.D. and 419 A.D. Still, in the Middle Ages, in many
manuscripts of the Vulgate, that is, of the official Latin Bible, there was to be found a spurious letter of Paul, the letter to the Laodiceans.

***

It was the period of the Reformation which gave to the Roman Catholic Church a conclusive Canon. After the old opinions and doubts had partly reappeared the
Tridentine Council in 1546 declared the entire contents of the Vulgate, without distinction, to be divine; in the New Testament twenty-seven books: four Gospels, the
Acts of the Apostles, fourteen letters of Paul, seven Catholic Epistles, and the Revelation of John.

Among the Reformers we find a vigorous criticism of the traditional Canon. Luther with the native courage of his faith made an excellent criticism, expecially in his
preface to the German New Testament in 1522. He substantiated a difference of value in the books and created a positive criterion for judging the Canon. He asked
which books "revealed Christ." Zwingli and Calvin also criticized the Canon. Martin Chemnitz, 1586, grouped seven New Testament Antilegomena, that is, books
whose canonical value is doubtful. Similarly others in the Seventeenth Century spoke of "deutero-canonical" books of the New Testament, that is, canonical books of
the second grade.

Also the English translator Tyndale adopted Luther's criticism of some of the books of the New Testament. But the consolidation of the Canon of the English Bible was
later facilitated by the declaration of the Thirty-nine Articles of 1562 that all the books of the New Testament "ut vulgo recepti sunt" are canonical, thus confirming the
received Catholic New Testament Canon.

Since about 1700 the New Testament in its Catholic form has also been naturalized by the Protestant Christians of Germany and that without any official measures.
How this has come about is not yet explained in detail. The forming of the doctrine of inspiration and also the enormous circulation of printed Bibles have had great
influence in this fixing of the Canon. If handwriting had a subjective nature, printing had an objective and standardizing nature.

It is only with regard to the order of the books of the New Testament, which is not yet uniform among the churches, that we find the influence of old difficulties still
remaining.

If you take a German New Testament in your hand and find out, for example, what place the Epistle to the Hebrews occupies in it, and if you compare it then with two
or three other German or English editions of the New Testament, you will perhaps see that it occupies a different place in them. and that insignificant detail will perhaps
remind you of a noble history of nearly two thousand years. Like the lapping of the last wave on the sea after a long storm, so is this minor uncertainty as to the order of
the books in our printed New Testaments.

Once again the thoughtful reader of the New Testament thinks of the main stages of that great history; of the days when the Gospel and early Christianity had nothing to
do with books. Then of the period when the popular books of the Evangelists and of the other Apostolic writers were written for the uneducated, simple people of the
Christian brotherhood; and of the time when a well-educated Christian brought out in the Epistle to the Hebrews, for the first time, a work of Christian art-literature.
Finally, we think of the decades and centuries which gradually formed the Canon of the New Testament from the remains of the great past and which, by rescuing the
earliest documents of our religion for mankind, accomplished what has only one parallel in the history of the Early Church: the cloud of martyrs who consented to die
for their faith.

***

This backward glance at the history of the origin of the New Testament is extraordinarily instructive for every man who is deeply interested in higher things. The history
of the origin of the New Testament reflects again the powerful historical process which we call the history of Christianity. Clearly we see in the development of the New
Testament the development of our religion: from the Gospel preached to the fishermen and publicans on the shores of the Lake of Genesareth, to the organized Church
of the Church Fathers and Councils. This process was one of cooling and stiffening. Spirit very often became letter, prayer became a liturgy, gifts of love became tithes.
The Reformation, which again across the centuries grasped the New Testament, grasped at a book which when studied externally and superficially looks like a law
book, but which when understood internally and deeply investigated presents to us again personalities in whom the revelation of the classical antiquity is embodied. The
Reformation made the hard metal again into a glowing stream. Through the Book it prevented Christianity from remaining what it has often become in the world, a
religion of a book, a religion of the letter.

And that will always be the effect of our Holy Book, when it is approached in the same spirit. The contents of this Book deny its book-character. Through the letter it
gives us a glimpse of a unique personal life whose support and inspiration are in the living God.

III
THE LANGUAGE OF THE NEW TESTAMENT

In The first lectures on the origins of the New Testament the characteristic standpoint of my conception was that the New Testament did not originate in the sphere of
ancient literary culture. It is rather the reflection of that which flowed out of the souls of nonliterary, simple prophets of the people in a period of unparalleled religious
awakening.

This standpoint is in strong contrast to the usual method of treatment in former times. Because the New Testament appeared as a book, and a book written in Greek, it
was put side by side with the other old Greek books as a matter of course. When thus raised to the sphere of ancient art literature, the New Testament gained a
notably unique position, quite an exceptional position with regard to language. When I speak now on the subject of the language of the New Testament, I do not deal
with a remote philological problem for philological experts. The problem is important enough to be of interest to every theologian and to the educated man who is not a
theologian. For a great part of the essence of the New Testament lies hidden in its language. Whoever has understood the nature of the language of the New Testament
has also understood a great deal of the essence of the New Testament and of Early Christianity.

With what does this problem of the language of the New Testament deal?

The old methods, which placed the New Testament among the literary works of the ancient world, gave to the language of the New Testament a peculiar, exceptional
place. And this seemed to be quite justified, because there really was a very strong contrast between it and the language of the literature belonging to the period in
which the New Testament originated.

In the literature of the Imperial period the predominant tendency was the so-called "Atticism," a cultural phenomenon which has lasted through the centuries down to the
present time, and today its influence can be seen, for example, in the unfortunate language controversies in Greece, and also in the methods of some of our higher
schools.

Atticism originated with the idea that the classical Attic literature was the highest point in Greek culture, and that the standard for the modeling of the Greek language is
to be found in it. Therefore Atticism was anxious to write a modeled Greek, which for the most part was an imitation of the classical Attic. While the colloquial language
had become very different from the stilted art language of the Attic classic (and indeed the colloquial language was quite different in the classical period itself), the
Atticists of the early Imperial period wrote the artificial book language of imitated Attic.

On the other hand there are very few Atticisms in the New Testament. In the majority of its books there is no trace of conscious Attic refining. Instead we find much of
the bluntness and license of the colloquial wildgrowing Greek. But this general character of the language of the New Testament has been misjudged. The obvious
difference between it and the Greek of the Atticists has been explained in two ways, either by saying that it is "tired" Greek and "bad" Greek, or by isolating it as
"Jewish" Greek or "Biblical" Greek or "New Testament" Greek. This was done not only by theologians but also by philologists. I remember the famous Greek scholar,
Dr. Friedrich Blass of the University of Halle, who, even as late as 1894, declared that "the New Testament Greek should be recognized as something distinct and
subject to its own laws."

Both of these theories, that of the "tired" Greek and that of the "Jewish" Greek, have proved to be fetters in the study, and particularly in the exegesis of the New
Testament, where in endless cases the special exegetical questions have been wrongly answered because of this isolation.

That these fetters have been removed, and that today the international study of the Bible, both in theology and in philology, has reached the correct point of view, is the
result of the study of those important new discoveries of non-literary written memorials belonging to the time of the New Testament which I mentioned before: the texts
on stones, on papyri, on ostraca, and in other forms. Greek inscriptions had been known long before, and some scholars had already begun to use them for the
elucidation of the New Testament. But the inscriptions are often modeled according to the traditions of the literary language and the offices of the authorities. Now, as a
rule, the language

                                                  is the unstilted language of the people. And these texts have yet an additional value in that they can be dated, in the

majority of cases, to the year, and often to the day. But it would be quite incorrect to surmise that these texts were written in a specifically Egyptian Greek. Of course
peculiarities of the Egyptian Greek existed, but in general the language of the papyri is the Greek Koine of the Mediterranean world.

on stones, on papyri, on ostraca, and in other forms. Greek inscriptions had been known long before, and some scholars had already begun to use them for the
elucidation of the New Testament. But the inscriptions are often modeled according to the traditions of the literary language and the offices of the authorities. Now, as a
rule, the language of the papyri and the ostraca is the unstilted language of the people. And these texts have yet an additional value in that they can be dated, in the
majority of cases, to the year, and often to the day. But it would be quite incorrect to surmise that these texts were written in a specifically Egyptian Greek. Of course
peculiarities of the Egyptian Greek existed, but in general the language of the papyri is the Greek Koine of the Mediterranean world.

The proof for this statement lies in the fact that the Greek of these Egyptian papyri and ostraca on the one hand, and the Greek of Syria, Asia Minor, and Southern
Europe on the other hand, have been found to agree in innumerable points. They were days full of joy for the discoverer, full of new insights, when, on the theological
side, these parallels were first established and their significance was first seen. I may here refer to the great cooperation of Continental and English-speaking
investigators, and for the details I may refer you to my books Bible Studies and Light from the Ancient East, as well as the excellent works of Dr. James Hope
Moulton, Dr. George Milligan, Dr. A. T. Robertson, and many others.

The result of these investigations, in which, of course, numbers of scholars from other countries have taken part, is chiefly this: that in the New Testament we have to
deal, not with "tired" Greek, nor "Jewish" Greek, but rather with the wild-growing speech of the people at the different stages of its development. It has been shown
that it was a great mistake to take for granted that the Greek language reached its highest point in the classical Attic, and that afterward there was only deterioration.
The case is really this: that when Greek came to be used in literature there were two chief forms of it, one which always existed among the masses of the people, the
living speech of the people which always spread further, and above it, the literary language modeled according to artificial rules.

We have no documents, or at least only very few, in the people's language of the old period, because it never found expression in literature. But it is obvious that the
sailors of Athens, or the merchants of the Ionian colonies, or the peasants of the Peloponnesus never spoke the language as it was written by Demosthenes or
Thucydides. In the papyri and the ostraca on the one hand, and in the New Testament on the other, the underground stream of the people's language springs up
powerfully into the daylight. And this colloquial Greek of the early days of Christianity cannot, with truth, be labeled as a "tired" language. Atticism makes a much more
tired and senile impression. We can say that it has been a dispensation of Providence that the Apostles have not been Atticists in their sermons, in their letters, and later
in their literary productions. For had that been so, Christianity would have been a privileged esoteric affair of a small and exclusive upperclass. Because the Apostles
spoke the people's language, the Gospel could go among the masses, could start a mission, and could wander from coast to coast.

It is true that, afterward, the Christian Church leagued itself with Atticism. At least, most of the Church Fathers wrote the Greek of the Atticists. And that, naturally,
hindered its progress among the masses. But the chief influence among the masses at that time, just as before, was the New Testament, as long as it was kept before
their eyes in the pericopes of the public services. This is also true of the Latin New Testament, which is likewise a memorial of the people's speech. It is also quite true
of the German and English New Testaments, which strongly reflect the common speech of the Sixteenth Century. Naturally the colloquial languages of the Twentieth
Century are somewhat different from those of the Reformation period. Therefore it is only right to translate the New Testament over and over again. It can be truly said
that the two great modern attempts to translate the New Testament into English, one by the Scotchman, Dr. James Moffatt, and the other by the American, Dr. Edgar
J. Goodspeed, are the after-effects of the revolution in New Testament philology due to referring the New Testament back to the colloquial speech of its period.

***

It is very difficult to enter into details within the limits of a short lecture. Therefore I will only just say generally that both the grammar and the lexicography of the New
Testament have been revolutionized by the modern methods of New Testament philology, and that the majority of modern commentaries have, to a great extent,
adopted the results of the modern investigations, and in some cases they have extended the investigations. We have, already, quite a number of modern grammars of
the New Testament. The best in German is the fifth edition of Dr. Friedrich Blass's grammar revised by Dr. Albert Debrunner. The best in English is the still incompleted
grammar by my dear and never-to-be-forgotten friend, the late Dr. James Hope Moulton, whose work is continued by Wilbert Francis Howard. And there is the
valuable monster grammar edited by Dr. A. T. Robertson. Just as epoch-making in the realm of lexicography is the work of Moulton and Milligan, The Vocabulary of
the Greek New Testament, without which the latest and best lexicon in German could not have been made: namely, the new edition of the Dictionary by Dr. Erwin
Preuschen, which was recently completed by Dr. Walter Bauer in Gottingen.

To this general statement I will add a few characteristic details in the vocabulary and the syntax.

***

With regard to the vocabulary, the usual theory of former times, that the words which are found only in the New Testament were new formations by the Apostles, has
been shaken to its foundations. It is true that new words do occur, but in the case of a word which occurs only in the New Testament, it is much safer to take that it is
only an accident. For example, Paul used the word logei>a (logeia) for the collection which he gathered for the poor Christians in Jerusalem. There was no other
instance of this word in the whole of Greek literature. So it was taken for a new formation by the Apostle Paul. But it could be said that a man who made propaganda
in order to collect money for a good cause would act very unwisely if he used a brand new word for his undertaking. And really the facts are these, that the noun
logei>a and also the verb logeu>w (logeuo), of which no instance had then been found, have been found, in the meantime, not only in Egyptian papyri and ostraca but
also in inscriptions in Asia Minor, words which had long been in use among the people and only by an accident did not come up to the literature.

Again, one of the most famous words in the study of the language of the New Testament is ejpiou>siov (epiousios) which occurs in the Lord's Prayer for the word
"daily" in "daily bread." This word has been established beyond doubt by the new study. No instance of it occurs in the whole of Greek literature. And besides, the
greatest of the old Bible students, Origen, had expressly asserted that the word did not exist before in the Greek language. Years ago I had once taken the risk of
doubting this statement of Origen, on the ground that I could not see why it was necessary to coin a new word in this case. The word left to me the impression that it
had originated in the everyday life of the people. And I was also guided by the consideration that I myself did not know very many words in the German colloquial
language of today, and without comparing myself to Origen in any way, it seemed probable to me that he did not know the entire vocabulary of the colloquial language
of the First Century A. D. Those experts who believed more in Origen than in modern New Testament philology were taught something better when in a papyrus from
the Fajum, the remains of a housekeeper's book, there appeared, among other requisites, ta ejpiou>sia (ta epiousia). In the meantime the Brunn philologist Ferdinand
Stiebitz brought the convincing information that this Greek expression ta ejpiou>sia corresponded with the Latin expression "diaria," which occurred in a similar list of
household requisites in a Latin wall inscription in Pompey. Both words probably signify the amount of daily food given to slaves, soldiers, and laborers, and probably
usually allotted a day beforehand. The inscription in Pompey is particularly valuable because it is not later than the time of the origin of the Gospels, being thus almost
contemporary with the oldest Greek translation of the Lord's Prayer. The strict meaning of the Prayer is: "Give us today our amount of daily food for tomorrow." 4

In many cases also new light has been thrown by the new discoveries on the special meanings of familiar New Testament words. As an example I will take the word
ajpe>cw (apecho) from the saying of Jesus in Matthew 6:2, 5:16, and Luke 6:24: "They have their reward." When it is known from the papyri and the ostraca that the
word ajpe>cw is the technical expression regularly used in receipts, the words "they have their reward" in the Sermon on the Mount acquire the more pungent ironical
meaning, "They can sign the receipt of their reward." Their right to receive their reward is realized, precisely as if they had given a receipt for it.

I wish to illustrate this example by means of one of those original documents, an ostracon, which comes directly from the time of Jesus Himself, and which is now in my
collection

                                                                                                                                                                 / 1773
the alien tax for two months. There, in the second line, you can see the word ajpe>cw quite clearly. 5

New and better answers have also been found for the grammatical problems. For example, in the familiar passage, which has been a difficult crux interpretum, in the
meaning, "They can sign the receipt of their reward." Their right to receive their reward is realized, precisely as if they had given a receipt for it.

I wish to illustrate this example by means of one of those original documents, an ostracon, which comes directly from the time of Jesus Himself, and which is now in my
collection of ostraca. It was written two or three years after the Sermon on the Mount, in September or October of the year 32 A.D. It is a receipt for two drachmae,
the alien tax for two months. There, in the second line, you can see the word ajpe>cw quite clearly. 5

New and better answers have also been found for the grammatical problems. For example, in the familiar passage, which has been a difficult crux interpretum, in the
Gospel of John 1:14: "and we beheld His Glory; glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth." Here the peculiar "nominative" plh>rhv (pleres)
has been explainedin the most peculiar ways. But the papyri teach us that plh>rhv had become indeclinable in the time of the New Testament, and perhaps before that.
And the despicable potsherds give new instance of its use. An artistic author would naturally have avoided this fossilized plh>rhv as a "mistake." That one word plh>rhv
should be enough to label the Gospel of John as a popular book.

***

We must yet deal briefly with an important syntactical question, the question of Hebraisms and general Semitisms in the New Testament. Because the New Testament
has been written, for the most part, by native Jews and, what is more important, because it is influenced in many passages by the Greek translation of the Old
Testament through the Septuagint, and, finally, because the sayings of Jesus had been translated from an Aramaic original, it contains, naturally, a number of Semitisms.
I have never denied that. What I do deny is this: that the number of these Semitisms is enough to disprove the general view that the New Testament Greek is the
colloquial Greek of the period, and to revive the view that it is Jewish Greek, and to call it Greek-Yiddish. The Semitisms only are the birthmarks which show us where
primitive Christianity came into existence. But generally regarded, the New Testament is, in spite of its Semitisms, a book of the Mediterranean world, not of the
Ghetto.

***

The view that the Greek of the New Testament was the language of the common people of its time has given cause, occasionally, to the erroneous opinion that the New
Testament was thereby degraded and depreciated. Here I can only confess that to me the New Testament has become greater and more venerable the more I have
learned to regard it in close connection with the people of its day. And just from a linguistic standpoint, a consideration of the style of the New Testament shows how
important is this little book, created from such simple material, even as a literary document, in the literature of the world.

In this respect a saying of Dante was a great help to me many years ago. It was my good fortune to rediscover it today here at Oberlin in the study of one of the
greatest living Dante experts, President Wilkins, with the aid of his wonderful Concordance on Dante's Latin writings. Dante, in his book De vulgari elo quentia,
differentiates within the languages two types: the vulgar, and the artificial or grammatical. And coming to a valuation of these two types he emphasizes with the genius's
intuition the noble superiority of the vulgar language: 6

"Harum quoque duarum nobilior est vulgaris, tum quia prima fuit humano generi usitata, tum quia totus orbis ipsa perfruitur, licet in diversas prolationes et vocabula sit
divisa; tum quia naturalis est nobis, cum illa potius artificialis existat."

We can summarize the poet's judgment by saying that he prizes the popular language because it is the oldest form of speaking, has prevalence all over the world within
the different tongues, and is for us the natural form of expression. By this Dante has given a masterpiece of linguistical insight, which is of a very special importance for
the problem before us.

***

When I now speak of the style of the New Testament, that does not mean that there is one peculiar New Testament style. The New Testament is a collection of
writings by different authors, and its style reflects the individuality of the different personalities, whom we must thank for the texts.

And here it should be said that the greatest and most valuable part of the New Testament lies before us not in written style, but in oral style. Both the Master Himself
and the greatest of His Apostles spoke their words. Jesus was not a book prophet, and Paul was not an epistle writer. Jesus was the Master of the living word, and
Paul also dictated his letters.

With Jesus of Nazareth everything depended on the living word. Although we have in the synoptic sayings of Jesus only fragments of the great treasures of His
prophecies, and those fragments are no longer in their original Aramaic language, yet they are quite sufficient to enable us to form a judgment of the peculiarity of the
style of these unique lines. Here I venture to make the statement that there is no text so popular as the sayings of Jesus anywhere in the libraries of the world religions or
world-culture. And to the weighty, universal human contents of the Gospel there corresponds the simplest of forms. Simple, great lines join heaven and earth, powerful
trumpet sounds arouse the conscience, the everyday facts of human life are the revelations of the Eternal.

When we compare the forms of expression in the prophecies of Jesus with those of human teachers, who stand upon the pinnacle of intellectual literary culture, then the
quiet impressiveness of the style of Jesus becomes still clearer. Read a few pages of Plato or a chapter of Kant and then turn again to the Sermon on the Mount or the
Parables, and the different types of forms become clear at once.

On the one hand there is the artificial style of speculative thought: long periods in which one becomes quite lost, and finally discovers that the way out of the labyrinth
cannot be found. The words of these great thinkers are not understood in the market place, nor would they be understood if anyone spoke them from a fishing boat.

Jesus spoke of the light and the candlestick, of the city on the hill, of father and child, bread and fish, egg and scorpion, of asking and giving, of seed and crop, of
hunger and thirst. No long sentences, no speculative questions, everything popular, simple, concise, transparent, pithy, plastic; all this and yet He was never trivial.
Although preached on the street corners it was never streetcorner wisdom; although clear it was never shallow; never abstract formulations, but always realistic
drawings and sketches. The best formal characteristic of Jesus' art of speaking can be given in the word which Winckelmann coined for ancient art, "noble simplicity
and calm greatness." On the whole the formal stylistic peculiarity gives to the words of Jesus the character of object lessons. The listener not only hears but also looks
and sees, and what is heard and seen remains. That is, the words remain in the minds and souls of simple men, who had never been burdened with learned ballast.

But they also charm the well-educated as expressions which have not been made but have grown. The more one compares the different styles of the great personalities
of mankind with one another, the more one realizes that neither the style of Plato nor of Kant was fit for the powerful Gospel message. The Gospel, because it was the
message of God to humanity, could only reveal itself in the simplest of garments.

***

In clear contrast to the style of the sayings of Jesus is the style of the letters of Paul. When we turn from the Gospels to Paul we pass from the cornfield and the fishing

In clear contrast to the style of the sayings of Jesus is the style of the letters of Paul. When we turn from the Gospels to Paul we pass from the cornfield and the fishing
boat to the market place of the big city. While the words of Jesus reflect His rural Galilean home, the language of Paul is saturated with the colors of the Mediterranean
emporiums. While the words of Jesus, regarded formally, are the outflow of a simple godly soul, not seldom in the language of Paul we see the vibrations of a very
complicated personality. Because of some complicated passages in the Pauline letters, it is customary, in many circles, to speak of the Paul who is difficult to
understand. The difference between the style of Jesus and of Paul is expressed thus: the one is intelligible, the other is unintelligible.

I cannot adopt this comfortable formula. It commits the error of not differentiating in the case of Paul, and we must do so if we wish to understand his style. Already the
second Epistle of Peter had differentiated here, when it says of the letters of Paul (probably the author of this Epistle had them already collected before him) that some
things in them are "hard to be understood." Moffatt translates " letters containing some knotty points" (II Peter 3:16). Undoubtedly there are long and different
sentences in the Pauline letters. In those passages where Paul begins to speculate, where he begins to bring proofs by the dialectic method, naturally he becomes
difficult to understand. The ninth, tenth, and eleventh chapters of Romans, taken as a whole, are not easy to understand. The same is true of other parts of the same
letter. Because many people begin their acquaintance with Paul with that letter, which now stands, in the Pauline Canon, according to Roman influence, at the beginning,
they easily confirm the judgment on Paul that he is difficult to understand.

But that is a misleading generalization. The same Paul who when he speculates often entangles himself in his own net, can find words for his confessions, his
exhortations, and his prayers which, in their concise pithiness, remind us of the master words of Jesus. After reading chapters nine to eleven of Romans, go on to
chapters twelve to fifteen and chapter sixteen or the thirteenth chapter of first Corinthians, or read quickly through all the Pauline letters, and put together all those
passages in which Paul condenses great truths into the shortest space thinkable, in very short sentences of only a few words, in a mottolike, lapidary language. In my
book Paul I have compared the Apostle, because of his gift of forming plastic banner signs, with Heraclitus, and I believe the comparison is a correct one.

In addition Paul has another gift. He is, up to now, the unequaled master of the liturgical style, which soars high above the dusty street of everyday prose, which, almost
in the language of the seer of another world, bears witness to the wonderful secret of that other world. Here the Apostle speaks as a prophet and a psalmist. The
classical memorials to this language of Paul are in the letters to the Ephesians and to the Colossians, although the same key is touched occasionally in other letters. It
was a grave misunderstanding to take these psalms of the apostolic Christ-cult for Christological and dogmatic treatises and paragraphs.

So we cannot speak of "the" style of Paul because we must distinguish between his different styles. But nothing he says is ever crammed into the artificial forms of
Atticism, it is rather created with the simplest means of the popular colloquial language of the ancient city, which he enriched with the language of the Greek Bible - the
Septuagint. In all the important matters the language of Paul does not soar far above the heads of the masses. Even today the simplest people, and just the simplest
people, can understand most of the best of Paul's preaching. And the average man can understand the difficult parts if he is directed by a well-trained theologian. Finally
I would advise you to compare Paul, the writer, with other writers of his time. Then you will gain the impression that when the Pauline letters had been collected and
reduplicated and so had become a part of literature (contrary to their intention), then the dry regions of the ancient artificial prose, with its rhetorical unreality and its
imitation of Attic, were refreshed anew by the stream which came from the depths of the language and souls of the people.

The task of describing the characteristics of the style of the Johannine texts is easier because we have before us, at least in the Gospel and in the letters of John, a very
uniform style. This justifies us in regarding the four texts as belonging together, and having come from the same hand. In the Revelation of John we have, I believe,
different styles coming together, the result, chiefly, of the author having used older apocalyptic texts and inserted them in his book. But I think that in quite a number of
passages the style which we have known from the Gospel and the letters is to be seen clearly.

The Johannine style is certainly the simplest which we can find in the New Testament. In all matters of form he is quite commonplace (one remembers the word plh>rhv
(pleres) of the prologue.) His vocabulary is not very rich and his syntax is of a quite unequaled simplicity.

Those scholars who have called the Gospel of John the philosophical Gospel, or the Logos Gospel, because they think that the whole book is to be understood from
the first lines, come into difficulties when the Gospel is tested by its style. From the stylistic standpoint the book does not look like a philosophical work. From its
outward garments and, I believe, also from its content the book was intended for the great mass of Christian believers. For its contents, the great literary synthesis of
the old Gospel of Jesus Himself, and of the Christ-cult and Christ-mysticism of the Apostle Paul, found that linguistic form in which the latter, the Pauline Gospel,
became the common property of the Church.

It seems to me a mistake to explain the stylistic peculiarity of the Gospel of John and the other Johannine texts as Semitic style. The piling up of principal clauses
connected by "and," and the lack of subordinate sentences and long periods, do not in themselves indicate that the author was a Semite. I do not doubt at all that the
author was a Semite But the sentence building in the Johannine texts is not specifically Semitic. Probably it is much more the pre-literary colloquial style of primitive
people. I have collected examples of this narrative style from Egyptian papyri, which certainly do not come from Semites, and similar examples can be produced from
the popular literature of all nations. I reject the view that the peculiarity of the Johannine style is that of Semitic grammar. Rather I see in the Johannine style an example,
perhaps the clearest of the Apostolic popular style.

But I must add one point. This primitive style seems to me to have become already a cult style. Certainly another type of cult style than the Pauline one. But a very
impressive style in any case. I can quite understand that the primitive style is the best for the use in the sanctuary. There is a similar style in some fragments belonging to
the Isis-cult. Then this liturgical Johannine style regains its own particular spirit when the separate pericopes of the book are read in a divine service, especially when
they resound in the semi-darkness of a cathedral, or when they are chanted or psalmodized. For this book was intended for the divine services. The evangelist, when he
wrote, inserted much in his book that he had not created just when he wrote it, but which he had created previously and had read many times previously in the divine
services.

Finally, I think it can be proved without difficulty that today this great book of the people, the Gospel of John, is far from being un-understandable among Christian
people. For this I have collected a great deal of material from literature, from my own observations, from information given by clergy friends at home, and from the
mission fields. And I may ask you yourselves to observe again to what extent the words of John and the Johannine pericopes are appreciated and are living among the
lowly. Here again it is confirmed that the texts of the New Testament have human character, not only intelligible to a small circle of esoterics, but also sinking into the
souls of the unknown and the forgotten of the world.

***

But there is also much to be said about the style of the other New Testament writers. The time being so short, I must confine myself to a very few sentences concerning
Luke and the Catholic Epistles. The Synoptic Evangelists, because they, for the most part, only repeated the tradition about Jesus, as a rule did not have opportunity to
show their own peculiarities of style. Only Luke, who added to his Gospel a second book, the Acts of the Apostles, appears to us as a stylist. We notice that he makes

plane when we read him. But we do not leave the native class of the New Testament. Luke also, with his gift for plastic form, stands before us as a prominent popular
narrator.

Of the Catholic Epistles, that of James belongs in the matter of style with the Synoptic Gospels, while those of Jude and Peter are nearer to Paul.

But we enter another world when we open the Epistle to the Hebrews. Here I can only repeat what I have already said in a previous lecture. The Epistle to the
Hebrews seems to me to be the first clear product of early Christian artificial prose. With it Early Christianity first stepped out of its native land and began to climb to
the level of high literary culture.

***

Whoever has eyes to see can learn much from the linguistic facts which meet us in the New Testament. The linguistic estimation of the New Testament shows us that
our Holy Book in its classical, creative period is in close contact with the middle and lower classes and in sharp contrast to the old artificial Atticistic culture which
struggled for a new lease of life in the surrounding world. Had the Gospel leagued itself with this ancient culture from the beginning it would have endangered what is
best in it, and, especially, its future as a message to humanity would have been impossible.

This complicated Atticistic culture was something only for the few. The masses craved for the simple, and the divine revelation of the Gospel demanded a plain garb.
The complicated is immobile, the simple is mobile. The New Testament, as is proved also by its language, was ordained for a destiny, the like of which no work which
originated in the high literary culture has had, or could have had. Let us remember Dante: "Nobilior est vulgaris eloquentia...totus orbis ipsa per fruitur." This simple
book, with its carpenter's and tent maker's language, was a book for all, and it could resound, unadulterated to humanity in all centuries, the message of the Gospel
which had moved men in a small corner of the Mediterranean world.

IV
THE NEW TESTAMENT IN WORLD HISTORY

Early Christianity, which originated in a world of writing and books, had nothing to do with books. Neither Jesus nor Paul took up the pen to preserve their teaching for
posterity. Jesus never wrote a word for literary purposes. Paul wrote non-literary letters to certain fellow believers when occasion demanded; he never thought of
creating Christian literature for future generations. But it was the good pleasure of God to give to the revelations of the Master and the confessions of His Apostle an
unparalleled position in World History.

The main clear lines of the creative period of our religion do not run from the higher to the lower, but rather upward from the lower to the higher. Like a spring from the
hidden depths the Gospel bubbles up from the soul of the people's prophet of Nazareth. Jesus was not a book prophet, neither was He an academic founder of
religion. And the papyrus sheets of the letters of Paul did not pride themselves on being pretentious pamphlets for the universities of Alexandria or Athens. They were
not on the book market for the educated; they went modestly out of the workshop of an unknown tent maker to the unknown of the big cities of the Mediterranean
world. But today the Gospels and the Pauline letters, together with the literary products of the second period of the Apostolic age, form the Book of Humanity.

The Early Church accomplished a deed of unique historical importance when it saved the remains of Jesus and His Apostles and collected them in the New Testament.

We call the New Testament the Book of Humanity because of its contents. It contains information concerning the most powerful spiritual movement of mankind in the
history of the world. But the New Testament appears to us as the Book of Humanity especially on account of its world-wide history during nearly two thousand years.
"Habent sua fata libelli: books have their destinies. How much could be said of the fata of books. But there does not exist a single book in the whole, immense library of
mankind whose fata come anywhere near being as extensive and intensive as those of the New Testament.

We will consider this world-wide history and find out the way over which the New Testament has traveled during all those centuries.

***

The first highroad of the New Testament is the one leading out of obscurity into the big wide world. Here a wonderful picture unfolds before our eyes. Just as we see
the Master's profound parable of the mustard seed in the history of Christianity in general, so also we can see it fulfilled in the history of the New Testament.

As late as the middle of the Second Century, a hundred years after the time of Paul, the Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles, and the letters of Paul - the groundwork of
the Canon - lay in the obscurity of the Christian brotherhoods in the emporiums of the Mediterranean coastlands. Compared with its position in the year 70 or 100 A.
D., Christianity shows a steady progress in the number of souls and communities. But compared with the great spiritual powers of the surrounding world Christianity
was small and hardly noticed. The number of copies of the Holy Scriptures of the New Testament would amount perhaps to a few hundred. Every Christian did not
possess a copy of the Gospel. As a rule, the local churches would have one or two copies. No part of an original manuscript of the New Testament belonging to this
period has come down to us. Probably we would have Second Century fragments of the New Testament if Christianity had reached Egypt in the early period.

But a hundred years later, in the Third Century A. D., in the age of the Christian persecutions, the position is quite different. At that time there were probably thousands
of copies of the Gospels or of the whole New Testament in circulation, and hundreds of them were given up to the authorities by renegade Christians and destroyed.
The New Testament was already a power in the life of the public, and with irresistible triumph it had settled in all parts of the Greek-speaking world. We have small
original fragments of the Greek Bible belonging to this period on pieces of papyrus from Egypt. The small Exodus fragment I showed you 7 may give you an idea of the
appearance of a Gospel sheet of that period.

A hundred years later, about the middle of the Fourth Century, after Christianity had conquered the ancient world, the number of copies of the New Testament had
increased considerably. From this and the following century we have entire manuscripts, richly ornamented; they are the priceless possessions of the libraries in the
Vatican, in the British Museum, and in Leningrad.

Although the Eastern Mediterranean lands were overrun by Islam, and many old churches containing copies of the Bible were destroyed, yet we have today more
manuscripts of the Greek New Testament, written from the Fourth to the Fifteenth Century and later, than of any other book of the ancient world.

The number of the manuscripts of the Greek New Testament, or of parts of it, which are known up to date, is about forty-six hundred, including the New Testament
commentaries of the Church Fathers. This number is not yet closed. Whoever travels in the East with his eyes open will perhaps occasionally find new Biblical

In 1928, in the Zeitschrift fuer Neutestamentliche Wissenschaft, Professor von Dobschuetz of the University of Halle gave a list of recently discovered New Testament
manuscripts including this Louisville copy. But one could now supplement this list considerably. I am glad to show you some white and black photos of two Greek
Gospelcodices of those I found last fall: the first two photos show the first pages of St. Matthew and St. Mark, the third gives a picture of the index of pericopes on
page 498 of the first codes; the fourth photo shows the first page of St. Mark in the other codex.

***

While the New Testament marched victoriously over the wide territory of the ancient Greek world, that is, over parts of Syria, Asia Minor, Greece, parts of Italy and
Gaul and Egypt, at the same time it entered other territories where other languages were spoken. The Greek Holy Book came next to its Eastern home, to the Syrians,
the Copts, Ethiopians, Arabs, Armenians, and other Orientals, and soon it was dressed in the curious garments of all these languages. The history of the Syria and
Coptic translations of the New Testament alone is such a comprehensive chapter that it takes the cooperation of many experts to recount it.

But the Holy Book conquered the West as well. In the language of the West, as the Latin Bible, it exercised its peculiar historical influence for centuries, from Tertullian
and Cyprian to Hieronymus and Augustine in North Africa and the southwestern lands of Europe, and then through the Middle Ages in the whole wide territory of the
Roman Church. We can distinguish two Latin translations: the Old Latin, the so-called Itala, and the later, the so-called Vulgate of Hieronymus, which is really a
revision of the Itala. Here again the numbers of the preserved manuscripts reflect the noble destiny of our Holy Book. Only a comparatively small number of
manuscripts exist of the Itala, which was gradually supplanted by the Vulgate of Hieronymus, but these few are jewels of the first rank. Of the Latin Bible of
Hieronymus there are, however, well over eight thousand parchment manuscripts, which have been catalogued. To the interesting question, why the number of the Latin
codices is nearly twice that of the Greek, the answer is that the Greek manuscripts in the East were destroyed by thousands by the never-ending invasions, while there
was no such destruction in the West. Unfortunately, the events of the last decades again have destroyed a number of Greek manuscripts in the East.

The Latin New Testament is also written in the language of the people. Yet it can be said that through the genius of the Latin language our Holy Book was put on a
somewhat different plane from that of the original Greek text. The Latin New Testament shows an aristocratic character in some points, and often a change into a
grandiloquent lapidary style. On the whole it is a Westernized book, a new Bible, as is the case with every great translation of the Bible, beginning with the Septuagint
down to the Bible of Luther and the English translations. In the numerous Romanic translations the New Testament sets out on its victorious march through the West.
But the New Testament began also to conquer the soul of the North-European peoples. Already a beginning had been made in the Fourth Century with the Gothic
Bible of Ulfilas, which originated in the southeast of Europe. This was the first Germanic Bible. And now from the Ninth Century onward there followed the Slavonic
translations. I can show you a photo of an Old-Slavonic Evangeliarium of the Fifteenth Century which I found in a Turkish library last fall; the page contains Matthew
5:18-22 (Sermon on the Mount). Later in the Middle Ages we see the beginnings of the Scandinavian and the Celtic translations.

***

Two modern Western translations of the Bible have come to be regarded more and more as World Bibles, the German Bible translated by Luther and the English
Bible.

There were already a number of German translations in the late Middle Ages, but these were soon forgotten when there appeared the most influential translation which
a book has ever had on the European Continent, Luther's German New Testament. With Luther's translation we have reached one of the most important epochs in the
world-wide history of the New Testament since the time of its origin.

Luther made the New Testament again the book of the people, and the new art of printing gave to the powerful spiritual force which he set free in the people an
unparalleled means of circulation.

Printing press and Reformation signify machine and soul, or technical art and religion. Each of these forces presses to subdue the world. Both of them, technical art and
religion, leagued together could subdue the world, that world which underwent at the same time so great a change. It was no longer the small ancient world, half of
which spiritually belonged to the Pope and the other half subject to the Turk, but the new big world, conquered by discoverers and explorers, and again settled by
brave pioneers whose imagination was excited by its wonders.

For the march through this big world the New Testament put on the garment of the English language. While Luther's Bible had directly and indirectly the greatest
influence in Christian Europe, the English Bible, although influenced by Luther, became the World Bible in the modern sense of the word. With the colonists who settled
in the New World the New Testament traveled far over the ocean.

Then as the world missions grew with the increase of international communication during the last two centuries, the New Testament experienced a new era in its history
through innumerable new translations. Here especially the English-speaking Christendom rendered great service. The British and Foreign Bible Society has, during the
century and a quarter of its existence, guided the destiny of the New Testament in a way of which Luther could not have dreamed.

When the British and Foreign Bible Society was founded in 1804 the Bible or parts of it were translated into a little over 60 languages. In 1921 the number of the
languages in which the Society translated, printed, and circulated the Bible or parts of it had increased from 60 to 543, in 1927 to 590, in 1928 to 609, on May 1,
1929, to 618. The Society's well-known small volume entitled "The Gospel in Many Tongues" gives the words of John 3:16 ("For God so loved the world"), or in a
few exceptions some other verse, in those 590 languages. Within very narrow limits this volume offers to us an instructive view which fills us with awe of the fata of the
Book of Books among mankind. The progress of the Gospel through the centuries and among the nations can hardly be presented in a better way to the Christian
Church and especially to the young than by means of this little book with its over sixty different types. If we include the translations circulated by other societies, we
would have to count over 840 languages or dialects in which the Bible or parts of it are translated today.

The number of copies that are circulated is correspondingly great. The British and Foreign Bible Society had circulated about 375,000,000 copies of the Bible or parts
thereof up to 1928, the annual figure of 1928 being about 11,400,000 volumes.

To this number must be added the figures of other Bible and missionary societies and also those of private publishers, and we have an inestimable number of the
polygot circulation of the Bible. The American Bible Society, for example, had circulated since its beginning in 1816 up to 1928 about 205,000,000 copies, the annual
figure of 1928 being about 11,000,000. Naturally, the New Testament has the foremost place in these numbers.

The New Testament is found today wherever the foot of a European or American goes; it has reached farther than gunpowder, and the mileage it has traveled cannot
be equaled by any railway track. Finally modern science has enabled us to send the words of the New Testament round the world on ether waves, and has thus
increased greatly the means of spreading its force. We can say confidently that neither the Holy Scriptures of Islam nor those of Buddhism nor the masterpieces of the
great poets of any people have the same position in the world as the New Testament. 8

Whoever takes active part in the study of the New Testament receives daily proof of its unique position in mankind. A few personal experiences which I have had
closely following one another will serve by way of illustration. Years ago I learned of the transactions concerning a translation of the New Testament into Kaschgar. At
the same time I heard that an English translation of a German book on the New Testament had been ordered from a London publisher, not only by numerous buyers in
America and Canada, but also by individuals in China, Tokyo, and Mombasa. The Kaschgar New Testament is intended for the interior of Central Asia. The other
names lead us from America to the Far East and East Africa. In the same week a member of my New Testament Seminar in Berlin brought back to me an Oriental
manuscript of the Gospels of the Eleventh Century which belongs to the Seminar. The young scholar had worked for months making a close comparison of it. And so
he added to the impressions of the modern history of the New Testament a glimpse into a part of its history in the Middle Ages.

***

This is the first highroad of the New Testament in its unparalleled history: the way out of the obscurity into the big, wide world.

The other path of the little book is conditioned by the first. It is the way leading from its native class of simple people up into the classes of the educated, those of
literary culture and worldly power.

This course of the New Testament is perhaps still more interesting than the first. The first way has long been accurately described and surveyed, but very little
consideration has been given to the second. Its history must yet be written, and it is a very rich history. For the ascent of the New Testament is one of the great
chapters in the history of man's culture.

The ascent of the New Testament! The simple book which came from the souls of blessed, simple men has always remained the possession of the simple. And in the
lean times of Christianity the spiritual value of the New Testament was securely held in the souls of the Christian people. But this living force also pushed upward. And
thus we see the vital sap moving upward from the roots to the trunk and to the twisted branches of human culture.

We have a valuable document belonging to the Second Century which shows us the New Testament still in the midst of its native class: it is the list of the books of the
Canon, which I have already mentioned. It is written in a very vulgar Latin, the peculiarities of which should not be "corrected." That is typical: the same hard and
crooked hands which received the Holy Book in the simple assembly rooms of the post-Apostolic times still hold it tightly as their own possession. It is not yet the
domain of the theologian.

Nevertheless, in the middle of the Second Century the New Testament, at least its chief constituent parts, was in the hands of the learned. The Christian scribes began
to deal with the New Testament much in the same way as the rabbis dealt with the Old Testament and the grammarians with the classical literature. Soon work had
commenced on the text and on the interpretation. A bibliotheca sacra of commentaries and sermons came into existence. Nearly all the Church Fathers were Bible
students in their way. During the Middle Ages the work was continued not so much in producing as in reproducing.

The exegetical work of the Reformation was creative for the intuitive conception of the motive forces of the New Testament. This creative work was continued in the
historical and philological spheres during the Seventeenth and Eighteenth centuries. We stand today on the shoulders both of the Reformers and of the fathers of the
modern historical and philological methods. Today the New Testament is one of the greatest subjects of expert scholarship in the colleges and universities all over the
world. There are, perhaps, four or five hundred academic chairs for the study of the New Testament at about three hundred different places in the world. The number
of the experts who cooperate in the study of the New Testament is considerably greater; among them there are many philologists and some excellent women scholars.

***

Undoubtedly this ascent from the mind of the simple people to the intellect of the learned meant a great danger to the New Testament; the same danger which there is
for the anemone of the Galilean spring when a learned man with a green botanizing box plucks it out and puts it in an herbarium; the same danger which there is for the
olive tree of Anatolia when it is transplanted to Tubingen or Berlin.

Often enough the little book has been threatened by this danger. It has seemed as if oceans of ink would drown it, clouds of dust suffocate it, and mountains of paper
bury it. Even in the modern study of the Bible there is still prevalent on the right and left a strange doctrinaire method of considering and estimating the New Testament,
a method which is interested primarily in the so-called "theology" of the Holy Book. This method formed a theological teaching from the flowing and ebbing religious life
of the New Testament. From the spirit of the first witnesses it makes a law, from the personalities of Jesus and His Apostles, systems, from Paul a Paulinism, and from
Christ a Christology.

Consequently we often get a distorted and lifeless picture of Early Christianity. Everything is dogmatized and conventionalized; much is fossilized and darkened; and the
connection with the deep mystic soul of the East is destroyed. These experiences of the New Testament belong to the gloom chapters of its history. That which came
from the mind of prophets in the sunny East, in the open air and free sunlight, feels as if it were in exile on the wooden tables under the Osram lamps of the Western
authorities.

On the other hand, many a time scholarly study has bee the pathmaker into the heart of the little Book and opened new ways which it should go through the labyrinth of
polyglot mankind.. Luther coined a fine word and Goethe borrowed it from the Reformer:

"Die alten Sprachen sind die Scheiden,

The ascent of the New Testament into the sphere of learning was thus both a danger to the little Book and a protection.

But with that we have touched upon only a part of the destinies of the ascending New Testament. We must add some remarks about the world-wide influence which it
has had in all spheres of spiritual culture.

I am thinking of the way in which fine art has been enriched by our Holy Book. In the earliest times it was still the simple art of people which was congenial to the nature
of the New Testament, art which was stimulated in particular by the Gospels. There are the primitive popular drawings of the old Christian catacombs, with their plain
material, their simple lines, and their naive conceptions.

Then came the period of the marble reliefs and sarcophagi and the elaborate frescos up to the classical art of the Renaissance, whose aristocratically dressed
Evangelists, pompously draped Areopagus-Pauls, and adorned Madonnas are often quite strange to the New Testament. On the other hand, Durer and Rembrandt
reincarnated spirit from the spirit of the New Testament, and Johann Sebastian Bach is often, from purely artistic intuition, a better interpreter of the Passion than the
Passion writers and the Passion preachers.

Less noticed, but really great in its influence, is the impulse which the New Testament gave to the Law. Marriage law, criminal law, public and civil law, were influenced
alike in many important points by the New Testament ideas. The leaders in political and social campaigns have, often enough, sharpened their weapons on the New
Testament. And even when political hypocrites made their bad use of the New Testament slogans they gave evidence to the majesty of our Holy Book.

An important instance of the influence of the little Book on the culture of mankind is the enriching of the languages with the words and metaphors of the New
Testament. In addition to Shakespeare and Goethe, whose language is saturated with the New Testament, there might be mentioned nearly all poets in the literature of
the Christian world. The orators in Parliaments, the great journalists, indeed all of us in our everyday language, stand under this formal influence of the spiritual eminence
to which the New Testament ascended from the obscurity of its origin.

But the deepest influence of the New Testament, and therefore the most wonderful of its destinies, is seen in its own sphere, in the spiritual, in the religious life of
humanity, and especially in the religious life of the Church itself. The history of the missions, home missions as well as foreign missions, is mainly the history of the
influence of the New Testament. The history of the Church in all its great periods, where in darkness a new light has shone forth, and where in weakness a new strength
has been found, is the history of the influence of the New Testament. Whether it is the story of the Christian martyrs up to the Massacred Witnesses and the Baltic
victims or the rediscovery of grace by St. Augustine, the mysticism of the Eastern and Western Catholic Churches and the Christlike life of St. Francis, or the Burning
Bush of the Reformation or the building up of the New World through the Pilgrim Fathers, or the modern social and ecumenical movements of Christianity, all of these
are unthinkable without the New Testament.

But greater, perhaps, than the influence in all these different spheres accessible to historical investigation is that which no historian can record: the influence of the New
Testament upon millions and millions of simple souls during nearly two thousand years of its history. That the New Testament has conquered the wide territory of human
culture, that it, through great leaders, has created epochs in the history of the Church, these facts confirmed by history must yet retreat behind the inferred fact that the
New Testament, returning home again and again, has conquered the individual human soul of the unknown.

"Has conquered" here means: "brought into fellowship with the living Christ and through Him with the living God," it means submission to the living Christ and to the
living God, it means forgiveness of sins and reconciliation, it means transmission of the power of eternal life.

All these effects of the New Testament inaccessible to History are mighty in the Kingdom of God. St. Augustine's distress, Luther's struggle for salvation, Wesley's
conversion, are culminating points visible from afar in the daylight of History. The secret effects which no eye has seen and no ear heard are greater.

***

This survey of the New Testament in World History permits us to call the Book that was originally the simple Book of the People, the Great Book of the Peoples.
Along the two ways which it has taken through the centuries the New Testament has become the Book of the Peoples. And these two ways, the way from obscurity
out into the wide world, and the way from the depths of unliterary folk up to the heights of academical culture, would not have been possible had it been the artificial
product of ancient learned study.

Therefore we can put the wonderful history of the Book of Humanity in one sentence: the New Testament has become the Book of the Peoples because it began by
being the Book of the People.

V
THE HISTORICAL VALUE OF THE NEW TESTAMENT

The New Testament has a double character: it is a collection of the written memorials of Early Christianity, and it is the Holy Book of Christianity today; it is handed
down to us in a dead language, and it is translated today into hundreds of living languages; it is put in our libraries, and it is laid on our altars; it is the object of the minute
criticisms of experts, and it satisfies hungry souls; it is a mine of historical information, and it is a source of religious power; it is of the past, and it is also of the present.

Because of this double character of the New Testament the question with which we shall deal in the last two lectures has also a double aspect. We shall inquire into the
historical value of the New Testament and also into its religious value. We shall thus test its historical reliability, and we shall think of its religious significance for us
today.

***

I cannot, within the limits of this lecture, plunge into the important question whether or not the religious value of a Biblical text depends on the results of historical
criticism. It may be sufficient today to say that I personally do not think that history is the basis of the holy. I become more and more convinced of the primacy and the
autonomy of the holy.

Therefore I am of the opinion that we should not overestimate the bearing of historical investigation upon the religious valuation of the New Testament. But this does not
mean, of course, any depreciation of the subject of this lecture itself. The problem of the historical value of the New Testament is certainly one of the greatest problems

autonomy of the holy.

Therefore I am of the opinion that we should not overestimate the bearing of historical investigation upon the religious valuation of the New Testament. But this does not
mean, of course, any depreciation of the subject of this lecture itself. The problem of the historical value of the New Testament is certainly one of the greatest problems
of modern theology.

***

Now my attitude toward the problem of the historical reliability of the New Testament is strongly influenced by two considerations, which appear to me more and more
important, and which have been part of the background of my theological work. I explained them in the previous lectures. First I have emphasized that the New
Testament contains a great number of texts which are non-literary in character, especially the Pauline letters; and secondly that the great majority of the New Testament
texts are of a more or less popular character. Many liberal and conservative critics have treated the letters of Paul as it they were literary compositions, and have
treated the New Testament as a whole as a collection of more or less theological art productions.

In particular the popular character of the Gospels has not been recognized by many people. They have treated these popular books as the product of certain
theological tendencies. There are eccentric persons to be found who regard the Gospels as the inventions of anonymous authors of the Imperial period, and deny the
historicity of Jesus.

It is remarkable that in these problems of religious history the eccentrics and the dilettantes have such a great number of adherents. Long before Arthur Drews, the
statement "Jesus has not existed" belonged to the standing stock of agitators, especially in European labor circles. The argument is always the same; if Jesus had really
existed, the pagan historians: of the Roman Imperial period must have mentioned Him; there must be non-Christian accounts in addition to the Gospel traditions; the
Christian traditions alone have no value.

Now we can say first of all that Jesus has not been ignored by pagan authors. He is also mentioned in the old Jewish texts, and, besides the Gospels, we have a quite
different group of early Christian sources; especially the letters of Paul. But for my part I would answer these objections with reference to the fact that Early Christianity
was a religious movement among the lower classes, at first a small hidden mustard seed. The men of literature, on the whole aristocratic, had they noticed it in the
period of its beginnings, would not have mentioned it, regarding it as a despicable, proletarian movement. But, as a rule, they did not even notice it in the time of its
beginnings.

Thus the fact that even later on Early Christianity was only seldom mentioned by pagan authors is simply due to its social structure. The Gospels are not quoted in the
Greco-Roman literature just because these thin, modest little books were never found on the bookstalls of the capitals, but, like a kind of secret literature, they were
hidden in the houses of those unknown people who with a few exceptions composed the Christian brotherhoods. Anatole France in one of his narratives has with the
poet's intuition fully recognized this fact.

With reference to the social structure of Early Christianity as it is still reflected clearly in the language of the Greek Gospels, we must add that it is as unthinkable that
what we call Jesus and Early Christianity came up from these circles automatically, as that Christianity was invented in one of the studies of the ancient world. It is easy
to understand that the religious movement of the Gospel was rooted among the lower classes; but that it originated of itself among the anonymous men of these classes,
and that afterward the name "Jesus" was affixed to it like a mummy label is unbelievable. For the historian it is only natural that behind this magnificent religious
development there lay a power, the power of a great religious personality.

***

But on this account we must observe carefully the Gospel tradition and see whether it justifies our faith in it. For this purpose, in agreement with the great majority of
scholars from all countries, I distinguish the first three Gospels, the Synoptic Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, as a special group from the Fourth Gospel of John,
and I will consider each of these groups separately.

How far are the Synoptic Gospels historically reliable? We must not be prejudiced against the historical value of the Synoptic Gospels just because we are not
absolutely certain of the authors nor of the year they were composed, or because certain other questions relative to their origin must be left open. For the estimation of
the historical value of the tradition of the words and work of Jesus it is not essential to know whether they were recorded by an Apostle or by another Christian, or to
know whether they were written in 40 or in 60 A.D. It depends entirely on whether the inner probability of their whole character and of the details merit our belief in
them.

The external evidence compared with that of many other ancient historical texts is certainly very good. Last winter in our Berlin Greek Society called "Greca" we began
to study Arrian's Anabasis of Alexander the Great, and Dr. Ulrich Wilcken gave us a fine introduction, especially examining the question of the sources used by Arrian,
who wrote in the Second Century A.D. Then I was deeply impressed by the fact that between Alexander and the writing of those of his biographies which are still in
our hands there lies a very long interval, all contemporary biographers being lost and only accessible to us by occasional quotations in later books.

Compared with these conditions of the Alexander tradition the Jesus tradition is very near to the facts themselves. From an originally oral tradition which later became
fixed in writing, the Synoptic Gospels were composed in their present form about a generation after the death of Jesus. That we deal here with the tradition of the
community does not detract from its value, for all traditions concerning spiritual movements are in their oldest forms traditions of the adherents, traditions of the
respective communities. And the nature of the personality of a founder of a community can be best ascertained from his followers.

***

But although the external facts are so favorable, it must be said that the historical value of the Synoptic Gospels can only be ascertained through internal criticism.
Internal criticism is always difficult, and its secret is only revealed to the expert who has spent long years on the investigation of the sources. Although internal criticism
strives for objective facts, yet it must be borne in mind that there is in it always a subjective element, and it must always be conscious of the relativity of historical
knowledge.

Our critical conclusion will not be based on general hypotheses of the circumstances of the origin of the Synoptic Gospels. It is not advisable to form a general and
hasty conclusion. It must be a conclusion formed from close investigation of each single part. I certainly accept the theory that the Gospel of Mark is the earliest of the
preserved Gospels and that theauthors of the other two Synoptic Gospels used beside that of Mark one or more records which were composed chiefly of the sayings
of Jesus. But I cannot make a definite decision and say that this one or that one of the three Synoptic Gospels as such contains the best tradition. I would not take the
early date of the Gospel of Mark as a reason for regarding in all cases its tradition as the most reliable. I would rather consider that not only the single pericopes, but
also the single

which of these separate traditional texts of the pericopes appears to be the primary. This method may be called "synoptic eclecticism." I think Johannes Weiss coined
the word. To be sure, it is not a beautiful title but it signifies what I hold to be correct. I consider the whole tradition of the Synoptics as one coherent group of ancient
texts, which was handed down with many variants, and I believe it can be said that in many cases it is possible to work back from a tertiary and secondary text to a
hasty conclusion. It must be a conclusion formed from close investigation of each single part. I certainly accept the theory that the Gospel of Mark is the earliest of the
preserved Gospels and that theauthors of the other two Synoptic Gospels used beside that of Mark one or more records which were composed chiefly of the sayings
of Jesus. But I cannot make a definite decision and say that this one or that one of the three Synoptic Gospels as such contains the best tradition. I would not take the
early date of the Gospel of Mark as a reason for regarding in all cases its tradition as the most reliable. I would rather consider that not only the single pericopes, but
also the single sayings of Jesus have had their own separate history in the oral and written tradition, and I believe that the chief task of the Synoptic study is to ascertain
which of these separate traditional texts of the pericopes appears to be the primary. This method may be called "synoptic eclecticism." I think Johannes Weiss coined
the word. To be sure, it is not a beautiful title but it signifies what I hold to be correct. I consider the whole tradition of the Synoptics as one coherent group of ancient
texts, which was handed down with many variants, and I believe it can be said that in many cases it is possible to work back from a tertiary and secondary text to a
primary tradition, to an " Urtext."

In the critical testing, especially of the several sayings of Jesus, attention should be given to the following possibilities:

1. That the tradition is intact and trustworthy;

2.That in the course of time it has been shortened, expanded, or altered in some way or other; namely, either through mere accident during its eventful history, or
through the temper of popular religion, or through unconscious or conscious adaptation to the requirements of the Apostolic Christ-cult.

In many cases even a hasty comparison of the variants of a certain passage will show clear traces of the alteration of the original due to one or more of the causes
enumerated.

In the attempt to solve the problem which of the different traditions is the primary we must dismiss all doctrinaire presuppositions.In particular, with the sayings of Jesus
we must be on our guard against suspecting the peculiar and the paradoxical. Those sayings of Jesus which disconcert the commonplace intelligence of the dilettante by
their paradoxes prove in the proper psychological test to be genuine.

When Julius Wellhausen belittled the historicity of the collection of sayings of Jesus (the so called source "Q") and in that way the historical value of the Gospels of Luke
and Matthew as compared with that of Mark, because a considerable part of the material was the deposit of the beliefs of the community, he overrated the
trustworthiness of his own method of historical and literary criticism and underrated the ability of the community to inform itself concerning its own origin. When other
scholars, denying the historicity of Jesus, declare that the Synoptic sayings of Jesus hang in the air, and attribute them to an unknown man, in an uncertain period, in
unknown circumstances, strictly all they have done is to erase the nomen proprium _Ihsou~v from the tradition. But even if the name is erased the facts remain and
behind them the creative personality. Then we must discover the creative power which we hitherto called Jesus in this or in that unknown. To make the sayings of Jesus
anonymous, which is the characteristic of this hypothesis, does not help in any way to solve the historical problems. It only puts the Synoptic problem or part of it into
the utmost darkness, into a company of anonymous prophets, thinkers, and poets, a community of unknown men in an unknown place in an unknown period, wholly
inaccessible to the investigator.

The fact ascertained by sane investigation, bewailed by the faint-hearted, disputed by apologists and ridiculed by unbelief, the fact that our earliest tradition of Jesus, the
Synoptic tradition, often divides into two or three branches, is for a calm historical judgment an argument for authenticity of the greatest importance. There must be a
theme behind the variants and the theme depends on a master who created it. A sensitive internal criticism of the variants enables us very often to ascertain the early
stages of the variation, and to work back from the variation to the theme and to the Master.

If I am allowed to indicate my general conclusion, attained through many years of work, it is this: The Synoptic Gospels are great treasure houses with a rich abundance
of genuine reminiscences of Jesus. Side by side with the genuine there are others whose genuineness is doubtful or denied. But even those pictures of Christ which were
created by the sincere art of His disciples have their value as memorials of the Apostolic Christ-cult and are therefore evidence for the powerful influence of the
personality of Christ on His followers.

Summing up: we cannot regard the Synoptic Gospels as one homogeneous group of the same historical value, we must not overlook the different strata. Tertiary and
secondary strata lay over the primary. But the primary can be ascertained in many cases.

***

Through the entire stratification runs the golden vein of the sayings of Jesus. The fact that the Synoptic tradition is also a tradition of miracles does not detract from the
historical value of its tradition. That the Gospels are not merely a collection of sayings but also narratives of miracles was an historical necessity. The Roman historians
of the same period not only give accounts of miracles which in their contents are much more grotesque than those of the Gospels, but they were themselves believers in
miracles: Livy, Tacitus, and, still more, Suetonius. It would have been astonishing and even suspicious if no richly colored pictures of the marvelous works of the
Saviour had been included in the Gospel texts, in books whose existence is due to the requirements of the Apostolic Christ-cult.

Each miracle account of the Synoptics requires special investigation. But when a number of these miracle stories are regarded for strong reasons as secondary, that
does not detract from the historical value of the tradition of the Synoptics as a whole.

Here it is necessary to lay particular emphasis on one fact: among the hundreds of sayings of Jesus which have been preserved by the Synoptic Evangelists only a very
small number is organically connected with a miracle account, either as preparation for a miracle, or as the result of a miracle, or referring to a past miracle. Thus the
tradition of the sayings is very loosely connected with the tradition of miracles, and criticism of the one does not necessarily affect the other.

Using the modern terminology of the historical method, the Synoptic tradition as a whole contains both remains of the history of Jesus and tradition of the history of
Jesus. By remains, we are to understand those parts which have remained comparatively unaltered. In the very first rank are those sayings of Jesus which have been
preserved in the original Aramaic. But practically we can add the great majority of the sayings of Jesus in Greek. Besides the remains are the traditions. By tradition, we
mean a more or less subjective information about Jesus. On the whole the remains, in the narrow or in the wide sense of the word, seem to me to occupy the
foreground in the Synoptic texts.

The remains of the history of Jesus, in particular the many genuine words of Jesus which we have in the Synoptics, are, it is true, not sufficient to form a biography, but
they give us the main outlines of His character, His inner life; and I believe that it is far more important for us to know the soul of Jesus than to know the succession of
the external facts of his life.

***

The Gospel of John is much more of a bookof cult confessions than the first three Gospels. It gives, for example, to the sayings and the miracles a much closer mutual
connection than they have in the Synoptics. In the Fourth Gospel the miracle very often is but the starting point for great revelations of higher things. As I said before, I
am convinced it is the work of a personal disciple of Jesus, who later came under the predominant influence of Pauline Christ-mysticism and Pauline Christ-cult. He

recollections, probably strengthened by the knowledge of the Synoptic Gospels, formed one organic unity. Thus his Gospel revealed to the churches both recollections
of Jesus and the power of Christ.

What is the significance of these facts for the historical value of the Gospel of John? If we again employ the distinction between remains and tradition, we can say:
although remains of the history of Jesus are not wanting altogether in the Gospel of John, yet it is cult-tradition, transmitted through the medium of the personality of the
author, which composes the greater part of the Johannine texts. As a book of cult confessions the Gospel of John is a source of first-rate importance for the history of
Apostolic Christianity. But it is also of great value for the history of Jesus. Firstly, in those parts which are to be regarded as remains, and secondly, as a peculiar
indirect source. The Gospel of John also indicates the great influence of the historical personality of Jesus on the Apostolic Church, and even where it contains no
remains we see behind the Christ-confessions the historical personality of Jesus.

***

The Acts of the Apostles has also a double character. Here also there is incorporated material which came from the author's own memory; namely, the so-called "We"
narratives, and those which were familiar to him of the Apostolic tradition. The historical value of this last material is considerable, although Luke is not a critical
historian in the modern sense of the word. But his own recollections are of an extraordinary value, not only for the history of Early Christianity but also for the history of
culture in the Roman Imperial period. Because Luke himself did not stand in the midst of the events, but was only a collaborator of Paul in some periods and scenes, he
is to be corrected in some of his accounts from the letters of Paul. He did not know the contents of the Pauline letters; they were still unpublished when he wrote. But
he perfects our knowledge admirably in many cases, especially concerning Paul. On the whole, this oldest Church history, for those who read it rightly, is indispensable
to the proper understanding of the Apostolic period.

***

We need not say much about the historical value of the Pauline letters. As the self-evidence of the great Apostolic missionary they are the classical sources for the
events of his life and for the appreciation of his inner life. In addition, they throw important light on the historical figure of Jesus, and by means of a great number of
separate pictures they illuminate the external and the internal life of Apostolic Christianity. Whoever merely estimates these letters as documents of the Imperial period
will receive much profit. So far as I can see there is no such wealth of spiritual self-evidence of any other man of the Imperial period.

In all these directions the historical value of the letters of Paul is particularly high because of the fact which I have often emphasized that they are unliterary texts. Paul
never thought when he dictated these letters that they would be published, and as published texts would become part of a Holy Book and of the literature of the world.
He could not think of a future in which they would be read and criticized. According to his belief there would be no long future. Therefore there was no need for him to
pose for posterity. Rather he expressed the moods and the thoughts which arose from the particular circumstances.

The other relics we possess from the Apostolic period have also their great historical value, because they reflect clearly the early Christian piety in the rich variety of its
personalities; almost like a volcano eruption as in the Revelation of John, again calmed and consolidated in the Catholic Epistles, then shortly seeking expression in
technical theological terms, as in the Epistle to the Hebrews.

***

Let us look back. The historical value of the New Testament as a whole lies in the fact that it gives us a fragmentary yet trustworthy knowledge of the personalities of
Jesus and Paul, and of the essence and nature of Early Christianity. This information is not given in fixed formulas but in thousands of occasional intimations, which the
historian must often cut loose from their connections, which are to him accidental, in the manifold strata of their historical transmission.

The new method of working which considers the New Testament in the clearest light of its period, of its Eastern home, and its social class, has altered the judgments on
the historical value of the New Testament in many details, but on the whole confirmed its historical value, because it clamped the Holy Book to its contemporary world.
The New Testament does not hover without historical connection above its period, but is bound to it by innumerable ties. It spoke the language of its native
Mediterranean world. It grew entwined in the class where Christianity originated. It is the reliable residue of the spiritual movement, which refers back to one center of
spiritual force, Jesus Christ.

***

That which we call in history "reliable" has never, it is true, the character of unconditional finality or of mathematical precision. Every historical result is relative. And
consequently there is no lack of whimsical excess of historical imagination, which cannot be controlled by automatic means. In most cases, and especially with the great
problems of the spiritual history of mankind, the historian has no absolute final method and can give no conclusive proof. He often works with hypotheses, and with all
striving for accuracy and objectivity his work is still tainted with an unavoidable subjective element.

But the partaker in this historical work knows well that in spite of all subjectivity and other human failures, historical knowledge progresses, slowly, it is true, but
irresistibly toward the truth. Therefore he is not alarmed when the subjectivity of the investigator or the imagination of the dilettante fancy that they can pilfer the ancient
riches of mankind from the treasure house of the centuries and substitute miserable tinsel for gold. It seems that Clio, the Muse of History, after the hard day's work of
her followers needs the game of the fantastic, which she views with a motherly smile.

More than two hundred years ago the French Jesuit, Jean Hardouin, defended with all seriousness the thesis that the whole of the ancient literature in the Greek and
Latin languages with the exception of the works of Homer, Herodotus, Cicero, the Georgics of Virgil, the satires and epistles of Horace, the work of the elder Pliny,
and a few other texts, was the work of monks in the Thirteenth Century A.D., under the direction of a certain Severus Archontius. It was the same Hardouin who, in
1715 published a work of twelve volumes on the Christian Councils from the year 34 to 1714 although he maintained that all Councils before the Tridentine were not
historical. When asked why he had written their history he said: "That is not known to anybody except God and myself." After the impassionate war of pens which
arose over the radical theses of this man, nothing remained except a sarcastic epitaph; Jacob Vernet of Geneva, who had, perhaps, noticed that smile of Clio, wrote it:

"in expectatione indicii hic iacet hominum paradoxotatus... credulitate puer, audacia iuvenis, deliriis senex,"

"Here lies, waiting the last judgment, the most paradoxical of all men, in his credulity a child, in his audacity a youth, in his delirious mind an old man."

orientalists and historians, a dissonant voice was heard which declared these original sheets to be absolute forgeries.

We need no more examples. Whoever is in touch with historical research knows that historical investigation does not tyrannize a man by compelling him to accept its
results.

There will always be some people whose eye are so made that they cannot observe a thing without, I may say, observing it to pieces.

It would be wrong if we had no more than mockery and ridicule for these blighted eyes and pilfering hands. I mean that we should allow no place for mockery and
ridicule where we, in bad mistakes, find honest striving for historical knowledge. We should leave history itself to announce the judgment. When the time has come that
motherly smile will flash over Clio's pensive face.

It is now more than twenty years since, one afternoon in spring, as the sun was sinking, I rode on the Ionian coast coming from Miletus toward an ancient Anatolian
sanctuary, the ruins of the temple of Apollo at Didyma. On the right was the Aegean Sea with the bare rocks of the distant islands of Samos, Patmos, and Cos. In front
Didyma was gradually appearing, a heap of marble and ruins out of which arose the three massive columns of the ancient temple glistening in the evening sun. Long ago
a desired object of the archaeological treasure digger, this temple of Apollo at Didyma, destroyed by earthquakes and the storms of centuries, had to suffer blasting
with dynamite, at the hands of men.

But the foundations of the temple withstood the dynamite. They withstood it because they lay huge and massive, deep in the earth. The earthquakes had been able to
destroy the columns; the foundations survived both history and barbarous force.

The foundations of our historical knowledge of Early Christianity taken as a whole seem to me unassailable. Although hidden to those eyes which cannot see into the
depths, they lie huge and massive and imperishable in the depth.

VI
THE RELIGIOUS VALUE OF THE NEW TESTAMENT

The question of the religious value of the New Testament is not nearly so difficult to answer as the question of its historical value. Everything religious is simple. It
becomes complicated only when strange elements are introduced into it.

This question as to the religious value can only be answered from a religious standpoint. A work of art cannot be appreciated by a savage, and the religious value of the
New Testament cannot be appreciated by a man who has no feeling for religion. Just as the grinning savage would perhaps shatter the work of art with a blow of his
club, so the unreligious man would regard as absurd the question of the religious value of the New Testament.

Thus the religious value of the New Testament cannot be forced upon anyone by demonstrations. It can only be perceived by the man who has a sensitiveness for the
sublime object. It obtrudes itself upon the religious man.

Therefore there is no need for long words to prove that value. It is written large on every page of the New Testament. But it is advisable first of all to avert a
misunderstanding which, I believe, is still widespread. I have already touched upon it in the fifth lecture.

***

Many believe that the religious value of a Biblical text depends on the results of historical criticism. As a young theologian I shared this opinion. But I came to regard it
more and more as untenable. With the final rejection of that principle, I experienced a beneficent inner deliverance.

I was of the opinion that the demonstration of the historical value of the New Testament was the basis for the recognition and validity of its religious value. I thought that
theological science must for each new generation, perhaps with new methods, first bring the demonstration of the historical value of the classical sources of the New
Testament, and that on this foundation would arise the religious value and the religious appreciation of the New Testament would be possible, beginning with personal
edification and going on to the edification of communities and inspiration of the work of evangelization and missions. Put in other words, if the demonstration of the
historical value of the classical sources should fail, as a whole or in part, through a proof of the spuriousness of any one of the texts, then the religious foundation not
only of the Christian Church but also of Christianity in general would be shaken.

This theory to which I look back today with sympathy as belonging to struggling youth, expressed in formula would be this: the historical is the basis of the holy.
Whoever understands this formula in all that it implies will perceive that with it an attitude is taken to one of the greatest problems of modern thought since the time of
Richard Simon, Spinoza, and Lessing. It is a problem, recognized or not, that lies behind all controversies about the Bible which have moved and shaken, impoverished
and enriched, Christendom since historical criticism entered into theology.

I cannot unfold at full length this problem of the relation of the historical to the holy. I must be content with emphasizing that I became more and more convinced of the
primacy and the autonomy of the holy. A very great part of the historical flows directly or indirectly from the self-manifestation of the holy, while the holy has many inner
relations with the historical. But finally the holy depends on itself, and in itself lies the source of its immanent development. The holy is prehistoric and metahistoric. The
holy does not live on the favors of history. It lives on the secret of divine spontaneous generation.

That we value the New Testament as Holy Scriptures thus need not be justified on the detour of a historical examination of its contents, because it is justified from
within through the testimony which our fathers called the "testimonium spiritus Sancti internum," "the testimony of the Holy Spirit from within," and which Paul called the
"demonstration of the Spirit and of power" (1 Corinthians 2:4). Our examination of the historical value of the New Testament, therefore, did not mean that we sought to
find in a secular way something that was necessary in the interest of the holy, like a foundation of hewn stones on which the Sanctissimum could be erected. It did not
mean that in the laboratory of the week-day we sought to distill the Water of Life for Sunday, or that the New Testament chair should be the fire protection for the
pulpit.

With these main indications I profess a conception of religion which is more mystic and practical than intellectual. Religion, and especially Christian religion, does not
consist for me in the first place in acknowledging certain facts of the past. Christian religion is to me a living and moving in the present living God, a fellowship with the
living Christ, which is a fellowship of submission and of following Him. The facts of the past have an eminent religious value, but they acquire that value from our present

faith. The facts of the past are not the basis of faith. The only basis of our faith is the present living God, and Jesus Christ when He has become for us in some way or
other a present and effective Reality. We will also, it is true, welcome thankfully the result of the historical examination of the New Testament for its religious valuation.
It is of the greatest importance for all of us, for theologians and for the churches, to know that we have in the New Testament an excellent historical tradition of Jesus
and His Apostles. But to know the past is not the unconditional basis for our present-day living in the higher world.

***

It is in connection with this that I now raise the question, whether the title of our lecture is correctly formulated. Would it not be more accurate, instead of speaking of
the religious value of the New Testament, to speak of the value of the religion of Early Christianity? Certainly it was not the influence of the written New Testament
which worked historically in the missions of the first centuries. The New Testament was not then collected, but was yet to be formed. The influence was that of the holy
Christian personalities in whom primitive Christianity was embodied. The New Testament, as such, is the reflection of Early Christianity. It is the residue of a powerful
religious movement which long had been active. Certainly the New Testament was not the basis of Early Christianity: "The foundation is laid, namely Jesus Christ, and
no one can lay another" (1 Corinthians 3:11).

But for the purpose of study as well as of our personal religious attitude we cannot grasp primitive Christianity historically as well as religiously except in the self-
evidence which has been preserved in the New Testament. It follows that in this lecture "The Religion of the New Testament" means the same, at least in a certain
sense, as "the religion of Early Christianity."

It is true that if the religion of Early Christianity is to be understood historically it must be considered in its historical development from the Old Testament up to Jesus
and from Jesus to Paul and John, and all from the background of contemporary religion and culture. It must be considered as a "movement," as something that grows
and as something that changes, as a particular case of historical undulation. But in our practical theme we have to consider it as something which has become calm, as
something complete, as something which has reached a great synthesis in the New Testament, as something present to us today as revelation.

***

We must continue with critical remarks. The historical study of the New Testament did not always make easy the historical approach to New Testament Religion.
Many scholars never pronounced the subject, "The Religion of the New Testament," with the emphasis on the word "religion." Moreover, they did not even formulate
the theme, "The Religion of the New Testament," at all. There are innumerable works which deal with the "theology" of the New Testament, but a generation ago there
was hardly a single European work which dealt with the "religion" of the New Testament. It was quite a surprise to me when, about twenty years ago, a book appeared
with this title, written by my honored predecessor in Berlin, Dr. Bernhard Weiss, who had already published a big Theology of the New Testament. It is only during the
last decades that the historical problem of the religion of the New Testament has been raised.

How is the fact to be explained that so little was said about the Religion of the New Testament in the theological literature of the past? I can only answer with a
confession of the guilt of my own science. It is because we have, for one-sided doctrinaire interests, strained our eyes with doctrinaire matters, until, unfortunately, we
became too often religion-blind.

According to this statement it is obviously presupposed that theology is something different from religion. By this I am continuing the hints which I gave before.

What, then, is the difference between religion and theology?

Religion, in any form, is a practical relation with a superhuman, divine power. Theology is scientific reflection on religion. It makes an historical investigation into the
phenomena of religious life in the history of mankind. Besides this relatively recent function it has also long undertaken speculative and normative tasks. But it is the
science of religion, not religion itself. Religion and theology are related to each other in the same way as art and the science of art, law and the science of law, language
and the science of language, the starry heaven and astronomy. Theology is secondary, religion is primary. Theology is the scientific reflection upon the phenomena of
personal life, religion is the personal life depending on God.

Thus when we inquire into the religion of Early Christianity as it is reflected in the New Testament, we inquire into religious, spiritual realities, and not into theological
teaching or systems.

The teaching and the system are only possible when preceded by the life. Whoever inquires about the theology of the New Testament and not about its religion, deals
with its secondary derivative aspects instead of the powerful, living, primary facts.

***

At the very beginning this method leads itself into a maze. At the beginning stands Jesus. And if anything can be said of Him with certainty, it is this: He was not a
theologian. He was quite untheological, neither did He speak "like the scribes" (Matthew 7:29).

Jesus is all religion, all life; He is not a book or a system. He is Spirit and Fire. To speak of the theology of Jesus is a triviality. He had no theology, for He had the living
God. And His revelations, His words of comfort and His exhortations, are witnesses to His possession. Whoever undertakes to put together a theology of Jesus from
His confessions makes a blossoming field into an herbarium. Let us, then, when investigating the New Testament historically and valuing it religiously, leave the
"theology" of Jesus alone. It exists only in the gloomy shadows of modern books. It has never existed in the light of day, and not a single soul in the ancient world was
moved, nor would anyone today be moved, by the "theology" of Jesus.

But how is it then with Paul? It is true that Paul, as a pupil of the Rabbi Gamaliel, had become something of a theologian. But when we call him the great theologian of
Early Christianity it is questionable whether we have grasped his characteristic features. I say that we have not. Also in the case of the Apostle of Jesus Christ, religion
is primary, not only when we regard him during his psychological development, but also when he is the mature Paul. Paul is the prophet and the missionary of Early
Christianity. It is true, he was not the creator but the organizer of the cult of Jesus Christ. But he lived in Christ. He is the deepest Christ mystic of the early period. One
can, and indeed one must, speak of a theology of Paul. But it is wrong not to speak, first of all, of his religion, which glows and works underneath the surface even of
the more theological parts of his letters. Therefore, as historians and as believers, we refuse to make a Paulinism out of Paul, to make a lifeless system out of a man. The
religion of Paul has been, and is today, of far greater influence than his theology; his fellowship with Christ far more than his Christology.

And that is the atmosphere of Early Christianity generally. It is true that, soon after the time of Paul, Early Christianity set out distinctly on the path of theology. The
Epistle to the Hebrews, as we saw before, is the first classical example. It is predominantly a theological treatise and demonstration. From that time on the whole history
of the ancient Church is not only the history of striving to become an organized body but also of the theological development of Christianity.

of the ancient Church is not only the history of striving to become an organized body but also of the theological development of Christianity.

But Early Christianity exercised its great influence as a religion, as divine power, which was transmitted by personal contact, as inner life from man to man, from
conscience to conscience. And afterward, during the ages, the most powerful periods of Christianity have always been the religious periods. The Reformation has been
a reformation because it had a religious soul. Where, in the history of the Church, theologyhas taken first place, she clipped the wings of those who would ascend to the
clouds like an eagle. She often made men timid, distrustful of each other, and unbrotherly. She destroyed unity and bred the sectarian spirit. Where, on the other hand,
theology has accomplished something great in history, it has only been possible throught the living force of great religious personalities.

The assertion that in Early Christianity and in the New Testament theology is predominant can only be made by that doctrinairism which is also quilty of other errors
which I have pointed out during these lectures: those theories that the letters of Paul are literary works, that the Gospel are art prose, and that the New Testament
Greek is to be isolated as something exceptional in the study of language. It was this doctrinairism which also dragged Early Christianity as a theological movement into
the spheres of those "isms" of ancient philosophical reflection and speculation. Having no appreciation for life and originality, it made the confessions of saintly and
struggling men into paragraphs, and thought it could put the Saviour and His Apostle in the straitjacket of a system.

If we wish to understand historically and to value personally the religion of the New Testament, then we must come down from the sphere of literary culture, which was
not the sphere of Early Christianity, to the level of non-literary humanity. And if we are trained to study the lines which came from the midst of those people they will
give us a great help in attaining a complete understanding of the religious character of Early Christianity, because they will give us a better grasp of the nature of naive
sentiment, of non-theological religion, of pre-dogmatic surrender to the everpresent deity.

I said before that to know the past is not the unconditional basis for our present-day living in the eternal world. And it is not the unconditional basis for the present-day
personal valuation of the New Testament. There are many Christians, men as well as women, who, without any training in historical methods, are able to value the New
Testament from within excellently. But, of course, the external historical understanding of the religious, pre-dogmatical character of the New Testament is a help for the
approach to its religious valuation.

***

Now this question as to its real religious value is answered by the New Testament from within to the religious man in different ways. In the religious valuation of the
New Testament there are strong subjective gradations. But all who hear that testimonium internum will be one in their confession: here speaks the living God, here
speaks the living Christ. This must be learned better by all of us, to flee from the often uncontrollable past of mankind's history to the present God.

The standpoint which I have here indicated seems to me to be of exceptional importance when we deal with the separate questions of our theme, especially with one of
the greatest of them: the question of the religious value of the Johannine texts, and the Johannine Gospel in particular. As a source of pure historical information the
Johannine Gospel stands behind the Synoptic Gospels. But that does not prejudice its religious value. It is just this Gospel with its indifference to minute historical
records that painted the ever-present Christ before the eyes of the community. It reveals to us, as likewise the Johannine letters, the Living One who is the Spirit, who is
the Word, who is the Paraclete with the Father, who is the Vine and we its branches. There stands forth He who is the Shepherd, He who is the Door, He who is the
lasting atonement for our sins.

The Johannine Gospel, in which Christ always says emphatically, "I am," does not reveal the Christ who has been the Word, Spirit, Vine, and Shepherd in the past, but
the Christ who is the Word, Spirit, Vine, and Shepherd today. And when the Gospel of John says, using the imperfect, "In the beginning was the Word," it does not
mean something completed in the past, but the eternal coming of Christ from the beginning, revealing the eternal, living God. It is this powerful, vibrating conviction
running through the Johannine letters which constitutes the religious value of the Johannine writings, and not their biographical details. It is from this conviction that the
facts of the past receive their divine light, and in particular the Cross receives its light by the exalted Christ. The piety of Paul, culminating in the fellowship with the
exalted Lord, has become a completed whole in the Johannine Gospel and has created definite cult forms of expression for itself, in which the believers from that time
onward could render their confessions to the glorified Master.

***

I have put these remarks on the Johannine writings first because I believe that this part of the New Testament in the light of modern study presents perhaps the greatest
difficulties to earnest Christians.

The difficulties with regard to the Synoptic Gospels are much fewer because they reveal the Master's personality much more distinctly than the great confession book of
the Johannine Gospel desired to do. The Johannine Gospel shows to us the Word which has again become Spirit, the Synoptic Gospels show more the Word which
has become flesh. That vein of gold of which we spoke when dealing with the different strata of the Synoptic tradition during our examination of their historical value,
the golden vein of the sayings of Jesus, is also decisive for the religious valuation of the Synoptic Gospels. But it must be clear at this point that the religious valuation
does not begin with asking, "What did Jesus, who once lived in Palestine under Tiberius and Pontius Pilate, say?" The question of the religious value is much more of
this nature, "What does Jesus command of me today, what does He expect from His Church today? What goal does He set today for the work of the social classes, of
the peoples, of mankind?" If the great German poet-philosopher, Friedrich Nietzsche, wrote above one of his great works, "Thus said Zarathustra," we can write under
the Synoptic Gospels, valuing them as revelation, the words "Thus says Jesus," "Thus says Jesus today," "Thus He speaks to me and to all of us today."

Putting the question in that form, we cannot expect the words of Jesus which move mankind to have everywhere the same effect as if they operated mechanically.
Because the question of religious value will be asked by individual men, the answers will be different on account of the subjective element. There are words of Jesus
which say little or nothing to a young man who is not yet troubled by the great problems of life, but which have a great deal to say to the fighter struggling with the
powers of darkness, or to the patient woman who knows no rest from the day's cares. There are words of Jesus which retreat at one period in order to appear to the
following generation like a cherub with a flaming sword, or like a messenger of peace from the heavenly Jerusalem. But there is not a single word of Jesus which can in
no place and at no time be a divine revelation for a man.

We need not prove this revealing character of the words of the Master with our theological arts, or with the subtlety of our academic apologetics. Jesus justifies Himself
- justifies Himself wherever He wishes. There is no secret code, no nova lex in those words which were never written by His hand. In those words which are always
bursting the husk of the letter in which they are inclosed today the soul of Jesus breathes - the immortal, the eternal soul of Jesus. In these words is revealed today the
will of Jesus, the eternal will of Jesus which is the will of the Father. From these words there streams today the power for regeneration and the hopeful waiting for the
coming

worship. They preserve this Cult-Christianity, this deep mystical Christianity from sentimental weakening, from doctrinaire dissipation and hardening, as well as from
gnostic exaggerations of imagination. They give to the ecclesiastical Pauline-Johannine Christianity its support, its norm, and, when necessary, its correction.

***

Just as simple as in the case of the Synoptic Gospels is the question of the religious value of the Pauline letters. It will appear more so to the degree the non-literary
character of the letters is recognized also in religious consideration. The Pauline letters are not the cold, black rock of a lava stream which has been petrified for
centuries; rather we find ourselves here in the vicinity of an ever-active volcano. His Christ enthusiasm emits warm rays of light which warm our hearts when they are
cold, so that thus our sealed souls open to admit Christ Himself. That is also true with different degrees of energy in the other Apostolic writings.

***

After all, the religious value of the New Testament is contained in this: that this little book brings us into sure contact with our Lord Jesus Christ and His first witnesses.

And this contact with Jesus and with His disciples means fellowship with the living God, means a steady hope for the Kingdom of God and of eternal life, it means
forgiveness of sin and salvation, triumph in the midst of affliction, power and help for all good, moral earnestness, self-denial, brotherliness, unity.

Considered historically, the New Testament is the trustworthy record of Jesus and His Apostles. Religiously considered, it proves itself from within by its influence to be
the Magna Charta of the present Jesus Christ.

Therefore we confess the New Testament as a Holy Book, the Book of Life. And we are confident that the New Testament, in virtue of its own unique power, as it
enters more into the clear light of modern investigation and as it penetrates further among men of all races and tongues, will justify the judgment that it is both: the
trustworthy record of the beginning of our religion, and the Magna Charta of the present Jesus Christ.

THE END.

1 WHEN he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.

2 And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

3 And Jesus put forth [his] hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

4 And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a
testimony unto them.

5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,

6 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.

7 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.

8 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall
be healed.

my servant, Do this, and he doeth [it].

9 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this [man], Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to
my servant, Do this, and he doeth [it].

10 When Jesus heard [it], he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of
heaven.

12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

13 And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, [so] be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame
hour.

14 And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.

15 And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.

16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with [his] word, and healed all
that were sick:

17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare [our] sicknesses.

18 Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he gave commandment to depart unto the other side.

19 And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.

20 And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air [have] nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay [his] head.

21 And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.

22 But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.

23 And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him.

24 And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.

25 And his disciples came to [him], and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.

26 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

27 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!

28 And when he was come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the tombs,
exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way.

29 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?

30 And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding.

31 So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.

32 And he said unto them, Go. And when they were come out, they went into the herd of swine: and, behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently
down a steep place into the sea, and perished in the waters.

33 And they that kept them fled, and went their ways into the city, and told every thing, and what was befallen to the possessed of the devils.

34 And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought [him] that he would depart out of their coasts.

2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of
good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.

3 And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This [man] blasphemeth.

4 And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

5 For whether is easier, to say, [Thy] sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

6 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and
go unto thine house.

7 And he arose, and departed to his house.

8 But when the multitudes saw [it], they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.

9 And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he
arose, and followed him.

10 And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.

11 And when the Pharisees saw [it], they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?

12 But when Jesus heard [that], he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.

13 But go ye and learn what [that] meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

14 Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?

15 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when
the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

16 No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made
worse.

17 Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into
new bottles, and both are preserved.

18 While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come
and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.

19 And Jesus arose, and followed him, and [so did] his disciples.

20 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind [him], and touched the hem of his garment:

21 For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.

22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was
made whole from that hour.

23 And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,

24 He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.

25 But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.

26 And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.

27 And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, [Thou] Son of David, have mercy on us.

28 And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto
him, Yea, Lord.

29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.

30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See [that] no man know [it].

34 But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devils.

35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every
sickness and every disease among the people.

36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no

37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly [is] plenteous, but the labourers [are] few;

38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

1 AND when he had called unto [him] his twelve disciples, he gave them power [against] unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of
sickness and all manner of disease.

2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James [the son] of Zebedee, and John
his brother;

3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James [the son] of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;

4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

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, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.

9 Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,

10 Nor scrip for [your] journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.

11 And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.

12 And when ye come into an house, salute it.

13 And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.

14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.

15 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

17 But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;

18 And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.

19 But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.

20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.

21 And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against [their] parents, and cause
them to be put to death.

22 And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.

24 The disciple is not above [his] master, nor the servant above his lord.

25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much
more [shall they call] them of his household?

26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.

27 What I tell you in darkness, [that] speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, [that] preach ye upon the housetops.

28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.

30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.

32 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in
law.

36 And a man's foes [shall be] they of his own household.

37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.

39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.

40 He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

41 He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a
righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.

42 And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold [water] only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in
no wise lose his reward.

1 AND it came to pass, when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities.

2 Now when John had heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples,

3 And said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another?

4 Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see:

5 The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel
preached to them.

6 And blessed is [he], whosoever shall not be offended in me.

7 And as they departed, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the
wind?

8 But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? behold, they that wear soft [clothing] are in kings' houses.

12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.

13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.

14 And if ye will receive [it], this is Elias, which was for to come.

15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

16 But whereunto shall I liken this generation? It is like unto children sitting in the markets, and calling unto their fellows,

17 And saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned unto you, and ye have not lamented.

18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a devil.

19 The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a man gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But
wisdom is justified of her children.

20 Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, because they repented not:

21 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they
would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.

22 But I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you.

23 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works, which have been done in thee, had
been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.

24 But I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.

25 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and
prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.

26 Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.

27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son,
and [he] to whomsoever the Son will reveal [him].

28 Come unto me, all [ye] that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

1 AT that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.

2 But when the Pharisees saw [it], they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.

3 But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him;

4 How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but
only for the priests?

9 And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:

10 And, behold, there was a man which had [his] hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they
might accuse him.

11 And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay
hold on it, and lift [it] out?

12 How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.

13 Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched [it] forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.

14 Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.

15 But when Jesus knew [it], he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;

16 And charged them that they should not make him known:

17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

18 Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew
judgment to the Gentiles.

19 He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.

20 A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.

21 And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.

22 Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and
saw.

23 And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?

24 But when the Pharisees heard [it], they said, This [fellow] doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.

25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided
against itself shall not stand:

26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?

27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast [them] out? therefore they shall be your judges.

28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.

29 Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.

31 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy [against] the [Holy] Ghost shall not

the prophet Jonas:

40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

41 The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and,
behold, a greater than Jonas [is] here.

42 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth
to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon [is] here.

43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.

44 Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth [it] empty, swept, and garnished.

45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last [state] of that
man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.

46 While he yet talked to the people, behold, [his] mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him.

47 Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee.

48 But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?

49 And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!

50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

Chapter 13

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 THE same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.

2 And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.

3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;

4 And when he sowed, some [seeds] fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:

5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:

6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:

8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?

11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that
he hath.

13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall
not perceive:

15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and [their] ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with

16 But blessed [are] your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and [their] ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with
[their] eyes, and hear with [their] ears, and should understand with [their] heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

16 But blessed [are] your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.

17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous [men] have desired to see [those things] which ye see, and have not seen [them]; and
to hear [those things] which ye hear, and have not heard [them].

18 Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.

19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth [it] not, then cometh the wicked [one], and catcheth away that which was
sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;

21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word,
and he becometh unfruitful.

23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth [it]; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth,
some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in
bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his
field:

32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come
and lodge in the branches thereof.

33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the
whole was leavened.

34 All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:

35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept
secret from the foundation of the world.

36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of
the field.

37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;

38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked [one];

39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;

42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

47 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:

49 So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,

50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

51 Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.

52 Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe [which is] instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man [that is] an householder,
which bringeth forth out of his treasure [things] new and old.

53 And it came to pass, [that] when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.

54 And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath
this [man] this wisdom, and [these] mighty works?

55 Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?

56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this [man] all these things?

57 And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.

58 And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

Chapter 14

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 AT that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus,

2 And said unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.

3 For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put [him] in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.

4 For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.

5 And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.

6 But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them, and pleased Herod.

7 Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.

8 And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John Baptist's head in a charger.

9 And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them which sat with him at meat, he commanded [it] to be given [her].

10 And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.

11 And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she brought [it] to her mother.

12 And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went and told Jesus.

13 When Jesus heard [of it], he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard [thereof], they followed him on foot
out of the cities.

14 And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.

15 And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they
may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.

16 But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.
15 And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they
may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.

16 But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.

17 And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.

18 He said, Bring them hither to me.

19 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and
brake, and gave the loaves to [his] disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

20 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full.

21 And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.

22 And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.

23 And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.

24 But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.

25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.

26 And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.

27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.

28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.

29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.

30 But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.

31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth [his] hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?

32 And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.

33 Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.

34 And when they were gone over, they came into the land of Gennesaret.

35 And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into all that country round about, and brought unto him all that were
diseased;

36 And besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment: and as many as touched were made perfectly whole.

Chapter 15

1 THEN came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, which were of Jerusalem, saying,

2 Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.

3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

4 For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

5 But ye say, Whosoever shall say to [his] father or [his] mother, [It is] a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me;

6 And honour not his father or his mother, [he shall be free]. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.

7 [Ye] hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying,

8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me.

9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.

10 And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:

11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.

10 And he called the multitude, and said unto them, Hear, and understand:

11 Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.

12 Then came his disciples, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended, after they heard this saying?

13 But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.

14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

15 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.

16 And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?

17 Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?

18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.

19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:

20 These are [the things] which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.

21 Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.

22 And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, [thou] Son of David; my
daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.

23 But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.

24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

25 Then came she and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.

26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast [it] to dogs.

27 And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.

28 Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great [is] thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from
that very hour.

29 And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.

30 And great multitudes came unto him, having with them [those that were] lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at
Jesus' feet; and he healed them:

31 Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and
they glorified the God of Israel.

32 Then Jesus called his disciples [unto him], and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have
nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.

33 And his disciples say unto him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?

34 And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.

35 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.

36 And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake [them], and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

37 And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken [meat] that was left seven baskets full.

38 And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children.

39 And he sent away the multitude, and took ship, and came into the coasts of Magdala.

1 THE Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.

2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, [It will be] fair weather: for the sky is red.

3 And in the morning, [It will be] foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring, O [ye] hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye
not [discern] the signs of the times?

4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left
them, and departed.

5 And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.

6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, [It is] because we have taken no bread.

8 [Which] when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?

9 Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?

10 Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?

11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake [it] not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the
Sadducees?

12 Then understood they how that he bade [them] not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

14 And they said, Some [say that thou art] John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.

15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed [it] unto thee, but my Father which
is in heaven.

18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever
thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.

21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief
priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.

22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.

23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but
those that be of men.

24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any [man] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.

26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

28 Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

1 AND after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,

2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.

3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.

4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for
Moses, and one for Elias.

5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I
am well pleased; hear ye him.

6 And when the disciples heard [it], they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.

7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid.

8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.

9 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the
dead.

10 And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?

11 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.

12 But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the
Son of man suffer of them.

13 Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.

14 And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a [certain] man, kneeling down to him, and saying,

15 Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.

16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.

17 Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to
me.

18 And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.

19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?

20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this
mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.

22 And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men:

23 And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised again. And they were exceeding sorry.

24 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute [money] came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?

25 He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth
take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?

26 Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.

27 Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast
opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.

1 AT the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,

3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.

6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and [that] he
were drowned in the depth of the sea.

7 Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

8 Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast [them] from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather
than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

9 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast [it] from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be
cast into hell fire.

10 Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which
is in heaven.

11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

12 How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the
mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?

13 And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that [sheep], than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.

14 Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.

15 Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy
brother.

16 But if he will not hear [thee, then] take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell [it] unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a
publican.

18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in
heaven.

19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father
which is in heaven.

20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

23 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.

24 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.

25 But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be
made.

26 The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

27 Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.

28 But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took [him]
by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.

29 And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

1 AND it came to pass, [that] when Jesus had finished these sayings, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judaea beyond Jordan;

2 And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.

3 The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?

4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made [them] at the beginning made them male and female,

5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?

6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?

8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.

9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except [it be] for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso
marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

10 His disciples say unto him, If the case of the man be so with [his] wife, it is not good to marry.

11 But he said unto them, All [men] cannot receive this saying, save [they] to whom it is given.

12 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from [their] mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and
there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive [it], let him receive [it].

13 Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put [his] hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them.

14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

15 And he laid [his] hands on them, and departed thence.

16 And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?

17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? [there is] none good but one, [that is], God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the
commandments.

18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false
witness,

19 Honour thy father and [thy] mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

20 The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet?

21 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go [and] sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come
[and] follow me.

22 But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.

23 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.

24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

27 Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?

28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne
of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

29 And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall
receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

30 But many [that are] first shall be last; and the last [shall be] first.

1 FOR the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man [that is] an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.

2 And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.

3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace,

4 And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way.

5 Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.

6 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?

7 They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, [that] shall ye receive.

8 So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them [their] hire, beginning from the last unto
the first.

9 And when they came that [were hired] about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.

10 But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny.

11 And when they had received [it], they murmured against the goodman of the house,

12 Saying, These last have wrought [but] one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.

13 But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny?

14 Take [that] thine [is], and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee.

15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?

16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.

17 And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve disciples apart in the way, and said unto them,

18 Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to
death,

19 And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify [him]: and the third day he shall rise again.

20 Then came to him the mother of Zebedee's children with her sons, worshipping [him], and desiring a certain thing of him.

21 And he said unto her, What wilt thou? She saith unto him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on the
left, in thy kingdom.

22 But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism
that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able.

23 And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand,
and on my left, is not mine to give, but [it shall be given to them] for whom it is prepared of my Father.

24 And when the ten heard [it], they were moved with indignation against the two brethren.

25 But Jesus called them [unto him], and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise
authority upon them.

26 But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;

27 And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:

28 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

29 And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.

30 And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, [thou]
Son of David.

31 And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, [thou] Son of
David.

32 And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you?

33 They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.

34 So Jesus had compassion [on them], and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.

1 AND when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,

2 Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose [them], and bring
[them] unto me.

3 And if any [man] say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.

4 All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,

5 Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.

6 And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,

7 And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set [him] thereon.

8 And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed [them] in the way.

9 And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the
Lord; Hosanna in the highest.

10 And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?

11 And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.

12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers,
and the seats of them that sold doves,

13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.

14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.

15 And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the

19 And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee
henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away.

20 And when the disciples saw [it], they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away!

21 Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this [which is done] to the fig tree,
but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.

22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

things.

25 The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will
say unto us, Why did ye not then believe him?

26 But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet.

27 And they answered Jesus, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

28 But what think ye? A [certain] man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard.

29 He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.

30 And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I [go], sir: and went not.

31 Whether of them twain did the will of [his] father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans
and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.

32 For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye
had seen [it], repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.

33 Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and
built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:

34 And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.

35 And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.

36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.

37 But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.

38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.

39 And they caught him, and cast [him] out of the vineyard, and slew [him].

40 When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?

41 They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out [his] vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him
the fruits in their seasons.

42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is
the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

1 AND Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,

2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,

3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.

4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and [my] fatlings [are] killed,
and all things [are] ready: come unto the marriage.

5 But they made light of [it], and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:

6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated [them] spitefully, and slew [them].

7 But when the king heard [thereof], he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.

8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.

9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.

10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was
furnished with guests.

11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:

12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.

13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast [him] into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and
gnashing of teeth.

14 For many are called, but few [are] chosen.

15 Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in [his] talk.

16 And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth,
neither carest thou for any [man]: for thou regardest not the person of men.

17 Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?

18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, [ye] hypocrites?

19 Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.

20 And he saith unto them, Whose [is] this image and superscription?

21 They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that
are God's.

22 When they had heard [these words], they marvelled, and left him, and went their way.

23 The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,

24 Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.

25 Now there were with us seven brethren: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother:

26 Likewise the second also, and the third, unto the seventh.

27 And last of all the woman died also.

30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

31 But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying,

32 I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

33 And when the multitude heard [this], they were astonished at his doctrine.

34 But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together.

35 Then one of them, [which was] a lawyer, asked [him a question], tempting him, and saying,

36 Master, which [is] the great commandment in the law?

37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

38 This is the first and great commandment.

39 And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

41 While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,

42 Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, [The Son] of David.

43 He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,

44 The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?

45 If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?

46 And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any [man] from that day forth ask him any more [questions].

1 THEN spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,

2 Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat:

3 All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, [that] observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.

4 For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay [them] on men's shoulders; but they [themselves] will not move them with one of
their fingers.

5 But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,

6 And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,

7 And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.

8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, [even] Christ; and all ye are brethren.

9 And call no [man] your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.

10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, [even] Christ.

11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.

12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in [yourselves], neither
suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.

12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in [yourselves], neither
suffer ye them that are entering to go in.

14 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the
greater damnation.

15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold
more the child of hell than yourselves.

16 Woe unto you, [ye] blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the
temple, he is a debtor!

17 [Ye] fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?

18 And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.

19 [Ye] fools and blind: for whether [is] greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?

20 Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.

21 And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.

22 And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.

23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier [matters] of the
law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

24 [Ye] blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.

25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion
and excess.

26 [Thou] blind Pharisee, cleanse first that [which is] within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.

27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within
full of dead [men's] bones, and of all uncleanness.

28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,

30 And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.

31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.

32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.

33 [Ye] serpents, [ye] generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

34 Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and [some] of them ye shall kill and crucify; and [some] of them shall ye
scourge in your synagogues, and persecute [them] from city to city:

35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of
Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.

36 Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.

37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, [thou] that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children
together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under [her] wings, and ye would not!

38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.

39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

Chapter 24

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 AND Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to [him] for to shew him the buildings of the temple.

2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be
thrown down.

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what [shall be] the
sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all [these things] must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

8 All these [are] the beginning of sorrows.

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him
understand:)

16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:

21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here [is] Christ, or there; believe [it] not.

24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall
deceive the very elect.

25 Behold, I have told you before.

26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, [he is] in the secret chambers; believe [it] not.

27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from
heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man
coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven
to the other.
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven
to the other.

32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer [is] nigh:

33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, [even] at the doors.

34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no [man], no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

37 But as the days of Noe [were], so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into
the ark,

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

41 Two [women shall be] grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have
suffered his house to be broken up.

44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

46 Blessed [is] that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;

49 And shall begin to smite [his] fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;

50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for [him], and in an hour that he is not aware of,

51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint [him] his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Chapter 25

1 THEN shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

2 And five of them were wise, and five [were] foolish.

3 They that [were] foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

9 But the wise answered, saying, [Not so]; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.46 / 1773

11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.
9 But the wise answered, saying, [Not so]; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

14 For [the kingdom of heaven is] as a man travelling into a far country, [who] called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his
journey.

16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made [them] other five talents.

17 And likewise he that [had received] two, he also gained other two.

18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.

19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have
gained beside them five talents more.

21 His lord said unto him, Well done, [thou] good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many
things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside
them.

23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things:
enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and
gathering where thou hast not strawed:

25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, [there] thou hast [that is] thine.

26 His lord answered and said unto him, [Thou] wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have
not strawed:

27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and [then] at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give [it] unto him which hath ten talents.

29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he
hath.

30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:

32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth [his] sheep from the goats:

33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation
of the world:

35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed [thee]? or thirsty, and gave [thee] drink?

38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took [thee] in? or naked, and clothed [thee]?

41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not
minister unto thee?

1 AND it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said unto his disciples,

2 Ye know that after two days is [the feast of] the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.

3 Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,

4 And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill [him].

5 But they said, Not on the feast [day], lest there be an uproar among the people.

6 Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

7 There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat [at meat].

8 But when his disciples saw [it], they had indignation, saying, To what purpose [is] this waste?

9 For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.

10 When Jesus understood [it], he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.

11 For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.

12 For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did [it] for my burial.

13 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, [there] shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for
a memorial of her.

14 Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests,

15 And said [unto them], What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver.

16 And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.

17 Now the first [day] of the [feast of] unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat
the passover?

18 And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with
my disciples.

19 And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover.

20 Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve.

21 And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

22 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I?

23 And he answered and said, He that dippeth [his] hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.

22 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I?

24 The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had
not been born.

25 Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.

26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed [it], and brake [it], and gave [it] to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.

27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave [it] to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;

28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.

30 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.

31 Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock
shall be scattered abroad.

32 But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.

33 Peter answered and said unto him, Though all [men] shall be offended because of thee, [yet] will I never be offended.

34 Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

35 Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.

36 Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.

37 And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy.

38 Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.

39 And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I
will, but as thou [wilt].

40 And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?

41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed [is] willing, but the flesh [is] weak.

42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be
done.

43 And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy.

44 And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.

45 Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take [your] rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is
betrayed into the hands of sinners.

46 Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.

47 And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and
elders of the people.

48 Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast.

49 And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him.

50 And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.

51 And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out [his] hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest's, and smote
off his ear.

52 Then said

51 And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out [his] hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest's, and smote
off his ear.

52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.

53 Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?

54 But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?

55 In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you
teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me.

56 But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.

57 And they that had laid hold on Jesus led [him] away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.

58 But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest's palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end.

59 Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death;

60 But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, [yet] found they none. At the last came two false witnesses,

61 And said, This [fellow] said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.

62 And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what [is it which] these witness against thee?

63 But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the
Christ, the Son of God.

64 Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and
coming in the clouds of heaven.

65 Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his
blasphemy.

66 What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death.

67 Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote [him] with the palms of their hands,

68 Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee?

69 Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee.

70 But he denied before [them] all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.

71 And when he was gone out into the porch, another [maid] saw him, and said unto them that were there, This [fellow] was also with Jesus of
Nazareth.

72 And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.

73 And after a while came unto [him] they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely thou also art [one] of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee.

74 Then began he to curse and to swear, [saying], I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew.

75 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept
bitterly.

1 WHEN the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:

2 And when they had bound him, they led [him] away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.

3 Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the
chief priests and elders,

4 Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What [is that] to us? see thou [to that].

6 And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.
4 Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What [is that] to us? see thou [to that].

5 And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.

6 And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.

7 And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

8 Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.

9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued,
whom they of the children of Israel did value;

10 And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.

11 And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.

12 And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.

13 Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?

14 And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.

15 Now at [that] feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.

16 And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.

17 Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called
Christ?

18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.

19 When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered
many things this day in a dream because of him.

20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.

21 The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.

22 Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? [They] all say unto him, Let him be crucified.

23 And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.

24 When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but [that] rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed [his] hands before the multitude,
saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye [to it].

25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood [be] on us, and on our children.

26 Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered [him] to be crucified.

27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band [of soldiers].

28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.

29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put [it] upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and
mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

30 And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.

31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify [him].

32 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.

33 And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,

34 They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted [thereof], he would not drink.

35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my
garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.

36 And sitting down they watched him there;

37 And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my

36 And sitting down they watched him there;

37 And set up over his head his accusation written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

38 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.

39 And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,

40 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest [it] in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.

41 Likewise also the chief priests mocking [him], with the scribes and elders, said,

42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

43 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.

44 The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.

45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.

46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou
forsaken me?

47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard [that], said, This [man] calleth for Elias.

48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled [it] with vinegar, and put [it] on a reed, and gave him to drink.

49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.

50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.

51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;

52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,

53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.

54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly,
saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

55 And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:

56 Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's children.

57 When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:

58 He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.

59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.

61 And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.

62 Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,

63 Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.

64 Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the
people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.

65 Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make [it] as sure as ye can.

66 So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.

Chapter 28

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 IN the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first [day] of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

2 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door,
and sat upon it.

3 His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:

4 And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead [men].

5 And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.

6 He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

7 And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have
told you.

8 And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.

9 And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.

10 Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.

11 Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done.

12 And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers,

13 Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him [away] while we slept.

14 And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.

15 So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.

16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them.

17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.

18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, [even] unto the end of the world. Amen.

1 THE beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;

2 As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

5 And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.

6 And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;

7 And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.

8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.

9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.

10 And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:

11 And there came a voice from heaven, [saying], Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.

10 And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:

11 And there came a voice from heaven, [saying], Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

12 And immediately the Spirit driveth him into the wilderness.

13 And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.

14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,

15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

16 Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.

17 And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.

18 And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him.

19 And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw James the [son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their
nets.

20 And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.

21 And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.

22 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.

23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,

24 Saying, Let [us] alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy
One of God.

25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.

26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.

27 And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine [is] this? for with
authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.

28 And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.

29 And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

30 But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her.

31 And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.

32 And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.

33 And all the city was gathered together at the door.

34 And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.

35 And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.

36 And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.

37 And when they had found him, they said unto him, All [men] seek for thee.

38 And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.

39 And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.

40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth [his] hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean.

42 And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.

44 And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which
Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

45 But he went out, and began to publish [it] much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city,
but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

1 AND again he entered into Capernaum after [some] days; and it was noised that he was in the house.

2 And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive [them], no, not so much as about the door: and he
preached the word unto them.

3 And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four.

4 And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken [it] up, they let
down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.

5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.

6 But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,

7 Why doth this [man] thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?

8 And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your
hearts?

9 Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, [Thy] sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?

10 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,)

11 I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house.

12 And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We
never saw it on this fashion.

13 And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them.

14 And as he passed by, he saw Levi the [son] of Alphaeus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed
him.

15 And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were
many, and they followed him.

16 And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh
with publicans and sinners?

17 When Jesus heard [it], he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the
righteous, but sinners to repentance.

18 And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees
fast, but thy disciples fast not?

19 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom
with them, they cannot fast.

20 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.

1 AND he entered again into the synagogue; and there was a man there which had a withered hand.

2 And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath day; that they might accuse him.

3 And he saith unto the man which had the withered hand, Stand forth.

4 And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace.

5 And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine
hand. And he stretched [it] out: and his hand was restored whole as the other.

6 And the Pharisees went forth, and straightway took counsel with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.

7 But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea,

8 And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and [from] beyond Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they had heard what
great things he did, came unto him.

9 And he spake to his disciples, that a small ship should wait on him because of the multitude, lest they should throng him.

10 For he had healed many; insomuch that they pressed upon him for to touch him, as many as had plagues.

11 And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God.

12 And he straitly charged them that they should not make him known.

13 And he goeth up into a mountain, and calleth [unto him] whom he would: and they came unto him.

14 And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach,

15 And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils:

17 And James the [son] of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he surnamed them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder:

18 And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the [son] of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the

19 And Judas Iscariot, which also betrayed him: and they went into an house.

20 And the multitude cometh together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

21 And when his friends heard [of it], they went out to lay hold on him: for they said, He is beside himself.

22 And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils.

23 And he called them [unto him], and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?

26 And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end.

28 Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:

29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation:

30 Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.

31 There came then his brethren and his mother, and, standing without, sent unto him, calling him.

32 And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee.

33 And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren?

34 And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!

35 For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.

1 AND he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea;
and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.

2 And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,

3 Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:

4 And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

5 And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:

6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

8 And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an
hundred.

9 And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

10 And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all [these] things are
done in parables:

12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and
[their] sins should be forgiven them.

13 And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?

14 The sower soweth the word.

15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word
that was sown in their hearts.

16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately
they are offended.

18 And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,

19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately

20 And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive [it], and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and
some an hundred.

21 And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?

22 For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.

23 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

24 And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be
given.

25 For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.

26 And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;

27 And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.

28 For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.

29 But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.

30 And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?

31 [It is] like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:

32 But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge
under the shadow of it.

33 And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear [it].

34 But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.

35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.

36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.

37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.

38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?

39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?

41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

1 AND they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

3 Who had [his] dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:

4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces:
neither could any [man] tame him.

5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.

6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,

5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.

6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,

7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, [thou] Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment
me not.

8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, [thou] unclean spirit.

9 And he asked him, What [is] thy name? And he answered, saying, My name [is] Legion: for we are many.

10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.

11 Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.

12 And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

13 And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place
into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.

14 And they that fed the swine fled, and told [it] in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.

15 And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they
were afraid.

16 And they that saw [it] told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and [also] concerning the swine.

17 And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.

18 And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him.

19 Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath
had compassion on thee.

20 And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all [men] did marvel.

21 And when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other side, much people gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the sea.

22 And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet,

23 And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death: [I pray thee], come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be
healed; and she shall live.

24 And [Jesus] went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him.

25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,

26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.

28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in [her] body that she was healed of that plague.

30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?

31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.

33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.

35 While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's [house certain] which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master
any further?

36 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.

38 And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.

39 And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.

40 And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with
him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.

41 And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.

42 And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was [of the age] of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.

43 And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and commanded that something should be given her to eat.

Chapter 6

1 AND he went out from thence, and came into his own country; and his disciples follow him.

2 And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing [him] were astonished, saying, From whence hath
this [man] these things? and what wisdom [is] this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands?

3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they
were offended at him.

4 But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.

5 And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed [them].

6 And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching.

7 And he called [unto him] the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits;

8 And commanded them that they should take nothing for [their] journey, save a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in [their] purse:

9 But [be] shod with sandals; and not put on two coats.

10 And he said unto them, In what place soever ye enter into an house, there abide till ye depart from that place.

11 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily
I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

12 And they went out, and preached that men should repent.

13 And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed [them].

14 And king Herod heard [of him]; (for his name was spread abroad:) and he said, That John the Baptist was risen from the dead, and therefore
mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.

15 Others said, That it is Elias. And others said, That it is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.

16 But when Herod heard [thereof], he said, It is John, whom I beheaded: he is risen from the dead.

17 For Herod himself had sent forth and laid hold upon John, and bound him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife: for he had
married her.

18 For John had said unto Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have thy brother's wife.

19 Therefore Herodias had a quarrel against him, and would have killed him; but she could not:

20 For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man and an holy, and observed him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard
him gladly.

Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give [it] thee.
21 And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to his lords, high captains, and chief [estates] of Galilee;

22 And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel,
Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give [it] thee.

23 And he sware unto her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give [it] thee, unto the half of my kingdom.

24 And she went forth, and said unto her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.

25 And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the
Baptist.

26 And the king was exceeding sorry; [yet] for his oath's sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her.

27 And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison,

28 And brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the damsel gave it to her mother.

29 And when his disciples heard [of it], they came and took up his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.

30 And the apostles gathered themselves together unto Jesus, and told him all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught.

31 And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no
leisure so much as to eat.

32 And they departed into a desert place by ship privately.

33 And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him.

34 And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a
shepherd: and he began to teach them many things.

35 And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the time [is] far passed:

36 Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.

37 He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give
them to eat?

38 He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.

39 And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green grass.

40 And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.

41 And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave [them] to his
disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.

42 And they did all eat, and were filled.

43 And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes.

44 And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men.

45 And straightway he constrained his disciples to get into the ship, and to go to the other side before unto Bethsaida, while he sent away the people.

46 And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray.

47 And when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone on the land.

48 And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them: and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking
upon the sea, and would have passed by them.

49 But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out:

50 For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.

51 And he went up unto them into the ship; and the wind ceased: and they were sore amazed in themselves beyond measure, and wondered.

1 THEN came together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which came from Jerusalem.

2 And when they saw some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is to say, with unwashen, hands, they found fault.

3 For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash [their] hands oft, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders.

4 And [when they come] from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, [as] the
washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables.

5 Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?

6 He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with [their] lips, but
their heart is far from me.

7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.

8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, [as] the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.

9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.

10 For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death:

11 But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, [It is] Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; [he shall
be free].

12 And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;

13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.

14 And when he had called all the people [unto him], he said unto them, Hearken unto me every one [of you], and understand:

15 There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the
man.

16 If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

17 And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.

18 And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, [it]
cannot defile him;

19 Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?

20 And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.

21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:

23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.

26 The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.

27 But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast [it] unto the dogs.

28 And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.

29 And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter.

30 And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.

31 And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, he came unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis.

32 And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.

33 And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;

34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.

35 And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain.

36 And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published [it];

37 And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well: he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.

Chapter 8

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 IN those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples [unto him], and saith unto them,

2 I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:

3 And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for divers of them came from far.

4 And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these [men] with bread here in the wilderness?

5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.

6 And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake, and gave to his disciples to
set before [them]; and they did set [them] before the people.

7 And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before [them].

8 So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken [meat] that was left seven baskets.

9 And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.

10 And straightway he entered into a ship with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.

11 And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.

12 And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto
this generation.

13 And he left them, and entering into the ship again departed to the other side.

14 Now [the disciples] had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf.

15 And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and [of] the leaven of Herod.

16 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, [It is] because we have no bread.

17 And when Jesus knew [it], he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your
heart yet hardened?

21 And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?

22 And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him.

23 And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked
him if he saw ought.

24 And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.

25 After that he put [his] hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.

26 And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell [it] to any in the town.

27 And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do
men say that I am?

28 And they answered, John the Baptist: but some [say], Elias; and others, One of the prophets.

29 And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ.

30 And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.

31 And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and [of] the chief priests, and scribes, and
be killed, and after three days rise again.

32 And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.

33 But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not the things
that be of God, but the things that be of men.

34 And when he had called the people [unto him] with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and
take up his cross, and follow me.

35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.

36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

37 Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

38 Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be
ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

kingdom of God come with power.

2 And after six days Jesus taketh [with him] Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he
was transfigured before them.

3 And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them.

4 And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.

5 And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and
one for Elias.

8 And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.

9 And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were
risen from the dead.

10 And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.

11 And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?

12 And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer
many things, and be set at nought.

13 But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.

14 And when he came to [his] disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and the scribes questioning with them.

15 And straightway all the people, when they beheld him, were greatly amazed and, running to [him] saluted him.

16 And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them?

17 And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit;

18 And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that
they should cast him out; and they could not.

19 He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.

20 And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.

21 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.

22 And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.

23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things [are] possible to him that believeth.

24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, [Thou] dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee,
come out of him, and enter no more into him.

26 And [the spirit] cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.

27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.

28 And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out?

29 And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.

30 And they departed thence, and passed through Galilee; and he would not that any man should know [it].

31 For he taught his disciples, and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is
killed, he shall rise the third day.

32 But they understood not that saying, and were afraid to ask him.

33 And he came to Capernaum: and being in the house he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?

wont, he taught them again.

2 And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away [his] wife? tempting him.

3 And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?

4 And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put [her] away.

5 And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.

6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.

7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;

8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.

9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.

10 And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same [matter].

11 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.

12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.

13 And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and [his] disciples rebuked those that brought [them].

thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.

22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.

23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in
riches to enter into the kingdom of God!

25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

26 And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?

27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men [it is] impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

28 Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.

29 And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or
children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,

30 But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions;

32 And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And

condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:

34 And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him, and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.

35 And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying, Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire.

36 And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?

37 They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.

38 But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of the cup that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized
with?

39 And they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am

man sat; loose him, and bring [him].

3 And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither.

4 And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him.

5 And certain of them that stood there said unto them, What do ye, loosing the colt?

6 And they said unto them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go.

7 And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him.

8 And many spread their garments in the way: and others cut down branches off the trees, and strawed [them] in the way.

9 And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord:

1 AND he began to speak unto them by parables. A [certain] man planted a vineyard, and set an hedge about [it], and digged [a place for] the
winefat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country.

2 And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.

3 And they caught [him], and beat him, and sent [him] away empty.

4 And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded [him] in the head, and sent [him] away shamefully
handled.

5 And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others; beating some, and killing some.

6 Having yet therefore one son, his wellbeloved, he sent him also last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.

7 But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.

8 And they took him, and killed [him], and cast [him] out of the vineyard.

9 What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.

10 And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner:

11 This was the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

12 And they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people: for they knew that he had spoken the parable against them: and they left him, and
went their way.

13 And they send unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in [his] words.

14 And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of
men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

15 Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see [it].

17 And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at
him.

18 Then come unto him the Sadducees, which say there is no resurrection; and they asked him, saying,

19 Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man's brother die, and leave [his] wife [behind him], and leave no children, that his brother should take his wife,
and raise up seed unto his brother.

20 Now there were seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and dying left no seed.

21 And the second took her, and died, neither left he any seed: and the third likewise.

22 And the seven had her, and left no seed: last of all the woman died also.

23 In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? for the seven had her to wife.

24 And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?

25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

26 And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I [am] the God of
Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?

27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err.

28 And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the
first commandment of all?

29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this [is] the first
commandment.

31 And the second [is] like, [namely] this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:

33 And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love [his] neighbour as
himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

34 And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask
him [any question].

35 And Jesus answered and said, while he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that Christ is the Son of David?

36 For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool.

37 David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he [then] his son? And the common people heard him gladly.

38 And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and [love] salutations in the marketplaces,

39 And the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts:

40 Which devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.

41 And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.

42 And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing.

43 And he called [unto him] his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which
have cast into the treasury:

44 For all [they] did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, [even] all her living.

1 AND as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings [are here]!

2 And Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,

4 Tell us, when shall these things be? and what [shall be] the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?

5 And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any [man] deceive you:

6 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and shall deceive many.

7 And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for [such things] must needs be; but the end [shall] not [be] yet.

8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and
troubles: these [are] the beginnings of sorrows.

9 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before
rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.

10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations.

11 But when they shall lead [you], and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever
shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.

12 Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against [their] parents, and shall cause them to
be put to death.

13 And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

14 But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth
understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:

15 And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter [therein], to take any thing out of his house:

16 And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment.

17 But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

18 And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter.

19 For [in] those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.

20 And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the
days.

21 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here [is] Christ; or, lo, [he is] there; believe [him] not:

22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if [it were] possible, even the elect.

23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.

24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,

25 And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken.

26 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

27 And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost
part of heaven.

28 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near:

29 So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, [even] at the doors.

32 But of that day and [that] hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

34 [For the Son of man is] as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and
commanded the porter to watch.

35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:

36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.

37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

1 AFTER two days was [the feast of] the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by
craft, and put [him] to death.

2 But they said, Not on the feast [day], lest there be an uproar of the people.

3 And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard
very precious; and she brake the box, and poured [it] on his head.

4 And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?

5 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.

6 And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me.

7 For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.

8 She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.

9 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, [this] also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a
memorial of her.

10 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him unto them.

11 And when they heard [it], they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.

12 And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that
thou mayest eat the passover?

13 And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, Go ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water:
follow him.

14 And wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the house, The Master saith, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover
with my disciples?

15 And he will shew you a large upper room furnished [and] prepared: there make ready for us.

16 And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

17 And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.

18 And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me.

19 And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, [Is] it I? and another [said, Is] it I?

20 And he answered and said unto them, [It is] one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish.

21 The Son(c)

22 And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake [it], and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.
20 And he answered and said unto them, [It is] one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish.

21 The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he
had never been born.

22 And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake [it], and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.

23 And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave [it] to them: and they all drank of it.

24 And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.

25 Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

26 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.

27 And Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be
scattered.

28 But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.

29 But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet [will] not I.

30 And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, [even] in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.

31 But he spake the more vehemently, If I should die with thee, I will not deny thee in any wise. Likewise also said they all.

32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray.

33 And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy;

34 And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here, and watch.

35 And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.

36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things [are] possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.

37 And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour?

38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly [is] ready, but the flesh [is] weak.

39 And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words.

40 And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him.

41 And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take [your] rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is
betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42 Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.

43 And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief
priests and the scribes and the elders.

44 And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead [him] away safely.

45 And as soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him, and saith, Master, master; and kissed him.

46 And they laid their hands on him, and took him.

47 And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

48 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and [with] staves to take me?

49 I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but the scriptures must be fulfilled.

50 And they all forsook him, and fled.

51 And there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about [his] naked [body]; and the young men laid hold on him:

52 And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.

53 And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him were assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.

54 And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.

54 And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.

55 And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus to put him to death; and found none.

56 For many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed not together.

57 And there arose certain, and bare false witness against him, saying,

58 We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.

59 But neither so did their witness agree together.

60 And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what [is it which] these witness against thee?

61 But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?

62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.

63 Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any further witnesses?

64 Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.

65 And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say unto him, Prophesy: and the servants did strike him with the
palms of their hands.

66 And as Peter was beneath in the palace, there cometh one of the maids of the high priest:

67 And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said, And thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.

68 But he denied, saying, I know not, neither understand I what thou sayest. And he went out into the porch; and the cock crew.

69 And a maid saw him again, and began to say to them that stood by, This is [one] of them.

70 And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter, Surely thou art [one] of them: for thou art a Galilaean, and thy
speech agreeth [thereto].

71 But he began to curse and to swear, [saying], I know not this man of whom ye speak.

72 And the second time the cock crew. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus said unto him, Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me
thrice. And when he thought thereon, he wept.

1 AND straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and
carried [him] away, and delivered [him] to Pilate.

2 And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto him, Thou sayest [it].

3 And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.

4 And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee.

5 But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.

6 Now at [that] feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired.

7 And there was [one] named Barabbas, [which lay] bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the
insurrection.

8 And the multitude crying aloud began to desire [him to do] as he had ever done unto them.

9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?

10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.

10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.

11 But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.

12 And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I shall do [unto him] whom ye call the King of the Jews?

13 And they cried out again, Crucify him.

14 Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.

15 And [so] Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged [him], to be crucified.

16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.

17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his [head],

18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!

19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing [their] knees worshipped him.

20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.

21 And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.

22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.

23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received [it] not.

24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.

25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.

26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

27 And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.

28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.

29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest [it] in three days,

30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross.

31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.

33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.

34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast
thou forsaken me?

35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard [it], said, Behold, he calleth Elias.

36 And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put [it] on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come
to take him down.

37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.

38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.

39 And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of
God.

and anoint him.

2 And very early in the morning the first [day] of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.

3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre?

4 And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great.

5 And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.

6 And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they
laid him.

7 But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.

8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any [man]; for they
were afraid.

9 Now when [Jesus] was risen early the first [day] of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.

10 [And] she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.

11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.

12 After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.

13 And they went and told [it] unto the residue: neither believed they them.

14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed
not them which had seen him after he was risen.

15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them: they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with [them], and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

1 FORASMUCH as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,

2 Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;

3 It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,

4 That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.

5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife [was] of the daughters of
Aaron, and her name [was] Elisabeth.

6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were [now] well stricken in years.

8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God in the order of his course,

9 According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.

10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.

11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.

12 And when Zacharias saw [him], he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.

13 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name
John.

14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.

15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from
his mother's womb.

16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.

17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of
the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.

18 And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.

19 And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these
glad tidings.

20 And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words,
which shall be fulfilled in their season.

21 And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.

22 And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them,
and remained speechless.

23 And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.

24 And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying,

25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on [me], to take away my reproach among men.

26 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,

27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name [was] Mary.

28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, [thou that art] highly favoured, the Lord [is] with thee: blessed [art] thou among women.

29 And when she saw [him], she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.

30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

31 And, behold,
 Copyright        thou shalt
           (c) 2005-2009,    conceive

32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore
also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.

38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

39 And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda;

40 And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.

41 And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy
Ghost:

42 And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed [art] thou among women, and blessed [is] the fruit of thy womb.

43 And whence [is] this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

45 And blessed [is] she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.

46 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,

47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

48 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy [is] his name.

50 And his mercy [is] on them that fear him from generation to generation.

51 He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

52 He hath put down the mighty from [their] seats, and exalted them of low degree.

53 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.

54 He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of [his] mercy;

55 As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.

56 And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her own house.

57 Now Elisabeth's full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.

58 And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had shewed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.

59 And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.

60 And his mother answered and said, Not [so]; but he shall be called John.

61 And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name.

62 And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.

63 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all.

66 And all they that heard [them] laid [them] up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him.

67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,

68 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,

69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;

70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:

71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;

72 To perform the mercy [promised] to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;

73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,

74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,

75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.

76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;

77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,

78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,

79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and [in] the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.

80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel.

1 AND it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.

2 ([And] this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was
of the house and lineage of David:)

5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in
the inn.

8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

12 And this [shall be] a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.

17 And when they had seen [it], they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.

18 And all they that heard [it] wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered [them] in her heart.

20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

21 And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he
was conceived in the womb.

22 And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present [him] to the
Lord;

23 (As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;)

24 And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.

25 And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name [was] Simeon; and the same man [was] just and devout, waiting for the consolation of
Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.

26 And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,

28 Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said,

29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:

30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,

31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people;

32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.

33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him.

34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this [child] is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign
which shall be spoken against;

35 (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.

36 And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven
years from her virginity;

37 And she [was] a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served [God] with fastings and prayers night
and day.

38 And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem.

39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.

40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.

41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover.

42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast.

43 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not [of it].

Chapter 3

1 NOW in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his
brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,

2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;

4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord,
make his paths straight.

5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways [shall
be] made smooth;

6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.

7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to [our] father: for I say unto you,
That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

9 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?

11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.

12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?

13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.

14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse [any]
falsely; and be content with your wages.

15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;

16 John answered, saying unto [them] all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not
worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:

17 Whose fan [is] in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire
unquenchable.

18 And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.

7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.
5 And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.

7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.

8 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou
serve.

9 And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from
hence:

10 For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee:

11 And in [their] hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

12 And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

13 And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a season.

14 And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about.

15 And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.

16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up
for to read.

17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,

18 The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to
preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.

20 And he closed the book, and he gave [it] again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened
on him.

21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.

22 And all bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph's son?

23 And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also
here in thy country.

24 And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in his own country.

25 But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great
famine was throughout all the land;

26 But unto none of them was Elias sent, save unto Sarepta, [a city] of Sidon, unto a woman [that was] a widow.

27 And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian.

28 And all they in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,

29 And rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down
headlong.

30 But he passing through the midst of them went his way,

31 And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath days.

32 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his word was with power.

33 And in the synagogue there was a man, which had a spirit of an unclean devil, and cried out with a loud voice,

34 Saying, Let [us] alone; what have we to do with thee, [thou] Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy

34 Saying, Let [us] alone; what have we to do with thee, [thou] Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy
One of God.

35 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him. And when the devil had thrown him in the midst, he came out of him, and
hurt him not.

36 And they were all amazed, and spake among themselves, saying, What a word [is] this! for with authority and power he commandeth the
unclean spirits, and they come out.

37 And the fame of him went out into every place of the country round about.

38 And he arose out of the synagogue, and entered into Simon's house. And Simon's wife's mother was taken with a great fever; and they besought
him for her.

39 And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them.

40 Now when the sun was setting, all they that had any sick with divers diseases brought them unto him; and he laid his hands on every one of
them, and healed them.

41 And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the Son of God. And he rebuking [them] suffered them not to speak:
for they knew that he was Christ.

42 And when it was day, he departed and went into a desert place: and the people sought him, and came unto him, and stayed him, that he should
not depart from them.

43 And he said unto them, I must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent.

44 And he preached in the synagogues of Galilee.

1 AND it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing [their] nets.

3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and
taught the people out of the ship.

4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.

7 And they beckoned unto [their] partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the
ships, so that they began to sink.

8 When Simon Peter saw [it], he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.

9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:

10 And so [was] also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth
thou shalt catch men.

11 And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him.

12 And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on [his] face, and besought him, saying,
Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

13 And he put forth [his] hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.

14 And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a
testimony unto them.

15 But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.

16 And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.

16 And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.

17 And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of
every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was [present] to heal them.

18 And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought [means] to bring him in, and to lay [him] before him.

19 And when they could not find by what [way] they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down
through the tiling with [his] couch into the midst before Jesus.

20 And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.

21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?

22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts?

23 Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?

24 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, (he said unto the sick of the palsy,) I say unto thee, Arise, and
take up thy couch, and go into thine house.

25 And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.

26 And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to day.

27 And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow me.

28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him.

29 And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them.

30 But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?

31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.

32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

33 And they said unto him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise [the disciples] of the Pharisees; but thine eat and
drink?

34 And he said unto them, Can ye make the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?

35 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.

36 And he spake also a parable unto them; No man putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old; if otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent,
and the piece that was [taken] out of the new agreeth not with the old.

37 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.

38 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.

39 No man also having drunk old [wine] straightway desireth new: for he saith, The old is better.

eat, rubbing [them] in [their] hands.

2 And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?

3 And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read so much as this, what David did, when himself was an hungred, and they which were with him;

4 How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the shewbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat but
for the priests alone?

7 And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath day; that they might find an accusation against him.

8 But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.

9 Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy [it]?

10 And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the
other.

11 And they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.

12 And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.

13 And when it was day, he called [unto him] his disciples: and of them he chose twelve, whom also he named apostles;

14 Simon, (whom he also named Peter,) and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,

15 Matthew and Thomas, James the [son] of Alphaeus, and Simon called Zelotes,

16 And Judas [the brother] of James, and Judas Iscariot, which also was the traitor.

17 And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and
Jerusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;

18 And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed.

19 And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed [them] all.

20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed [be ye] poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.

21 Blessed [are ye] that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed [are ye] that weep now: for ye shall laugh.

22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you [from their company], and shall reproach [you], and cast out your
name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.

23 Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward [is] great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets.

24 But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.

25 Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.

26 Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.

27 But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,

28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.

29 And unto him that smiteth thee on the [one] cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not [to take thy] coat also.

31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the
Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and [to] the evil.

1 NOW when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die.

3 And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.

4 And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:

5 For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.

6 Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not
thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:

7 Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.

8 For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh;
and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth [it].

9 When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not
found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

10 And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.

11 And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many of his disciples went with him, and much people.

12 Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and
much people of the city was with her.

13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.

14 And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare [him] stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.

17 And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judaea, and throughout all the region round about.

18 And the disciples of John shewed him of all these things.

19 And John calling [unto him] two of his disciples sent [them] to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?

20 When the men were come unto him, they said, John Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?

21 And in that same hour he cured many of [their] infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits; and unto many [that were] blind he gave sight.

22 Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the
lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.

23 And blessed is [he], whosoever shall not be offended in me.

24 And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak unto the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness for to
see? A reed shaken with the wind?

25 But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings'
courts.

26 But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.

27 This is [he], of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

28 For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom
of God is greater than he.

29 And all the people that heard [him], and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.

30 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.

31 And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?

32 They are like unto children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced;
we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.

33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.

34 The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!

35 But wisdom is justified of all her children.

36 And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house, and sat down to meat.

37 And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that [Jesus] sat at meat in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster box of
ointment,

38 And stood at his feet behind [him] weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe [them] with the hairs of her head, and kissed his
feet, and anointed [them] with the ointment.

39 Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw [it], he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who
and what manner of woman [this is] that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.

40 And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.

41 There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.

42 And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?

43 Simon answered and said, I suppose that [he], to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.

44 And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but
she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped [them] with the hairs of her head.

45 Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.

46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.

47 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, [the same] loveth little.

48 And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.

49 And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?

50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.

1 AND it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God:
and the twelve [were] with him,

2 And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,

3 And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.

4 And when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spake by a parable:

5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.

6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.

7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.

8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to
hear, let him hear.

9 And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?

10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and
hearing they might not understand.

11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be
saved.

13 They on the rock [are they], which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of
temptation fall away.

14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of [this]
life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep [it], and bring forth fruit with patience.

16 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth [it] under a bed; but setteth [it] on a candlestick, that they which enter
in may see the light.

17 For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither [any thing] hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.

18 Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he
seemeth to have.

19 Then came to him [his] mother and his brethren, and could not come at him for the press.

20 And it was told him [by certain] which said, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee.

21 And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.

22 Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a ship with his disciples: and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the
lake. And they
 Copyright      launched forth.

23 But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled [with water], and were in jeopardy.
21 And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.

22 Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a ship with his disciples: and he said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the
lake. And they launched forth.

23 But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled [with water], and were in jeopardy.

24 And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and
they ceased, and there was a calm.

25 And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he
commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.

26 And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is over against Galilee.

27 And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in
[any] house, but in the tombs.

28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, [thou] Son of God most
high? I beseech thee, torment me not.

29 (For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in
fetters; and he brake the bands, and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.)

30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.

31 And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the deep.

32 And there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them. And
he suffered them.

33 Then went the devils out of the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked.

34 When they that fed [them] saw what was done, they fled, and went and told [it] in the city and in the country.

35 Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus,
clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.

36 They also which saw [it] told them by what means he that was possessed of the devils was healed.

37 Then the whole multitude of the country of the Gadarenes round about besought him to depart from them; for they were taken with great fear:
and he went up into the ship, and returned back again.

38 Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying,

39 Return to thine own house, and shew how great things God hath done unto thee. And he went his way, and published throughout the whole city
how great things Jesus had done unto him.

40 And it came to pass, that, when Jesus was returned, the people [gladly] received him: for they were all waiting for him.

41 And, behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and he fell down at Jesus' feet, and besought him that he
would come into his house:

42 For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But as he went the people thronged him.

43 And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any,

44 Came behind [him], and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched.

45 And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and press [thee],
and sayest thou, Who touched me?

46 And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me.

47 And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for
what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.

48 And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.

49 While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's [house], saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master.

50 But when Jesus heard [it], he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.

51 And when he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden.

52 And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.

53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead.

54 And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise.

55 And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat.

56 And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.

Chapter 9

1 THEN he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.

2 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

3 And he said unto them, Take nothing for [your] journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece.

4 And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart.

5 And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.

6 And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.

7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him: and he was perplexed, because that it was said of some, that John was risen from the
dead;

8 And of some, that Elias had appeared; and of others, that one of the old prophets was risen again.

9 And Herod said, John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him.

10 And the apostles, when they were returned, told him all that they had done. And he took them, and went aside privately into a desert place
belonging to the city called Bethsaida.

11 And the people, when they knew [it], followed him: and he received them, and spake unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had
need of healing.

12 And when the day began to wear away, then came the twelve, and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and
country round about, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a desert place.

13 But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more but five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy meat for
all this people.

14 For they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company.

15 And they did so, and made them all sit down.

16 Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake, and gave to the disciples to set before the
multitude.

17 And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up of fragments that remained to them twelve baskets.

18 And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I am?

19 They answering said, John the Baptist; but some [say], Elias; and others [say], that one of the old prophets is risen again.

20 He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of God.

21 And he straitly charged them, and commanded [them] to tell no man that thing;

22 Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third
day.
 Copyright (c) 2005-2009, Infobase Media Corp.                                                                                     Page 91 / 1773
23 And he said to [them] all, If any [man] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.
22 Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third
day.

23 And he said to [them] all, If any [man] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.

25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?

26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and [in
his] Father's, and of the holy angels.

27 But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

28 And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.

29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment [was] white [and] glistering.

30 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias:

31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.

32 But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with
him.

33 And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one
for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.

34 While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.

35 And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

36 And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept [it] close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had
seen.

37 And it came to pass, that on the next day, when they were come down from the hill, much people met him.

38 And, behold, a man of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son: for he is mine only child.

39 And, lo, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth again, and bruising him hardly departeth from him.

40 And I besought thy disciples to cast him out; and they could not.

41 And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring thy son hither.

42 And as he was yet a coming, the devil threw him down, and tare [him]. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered
him again to his father.

43 And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,

44 Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.

45 But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.

46 Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.

47 And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by him,

48 And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for
he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.

49 And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us.

50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid [him] not: for he that is not against us is for us.

51 And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,

52 And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.

53 And they

55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.

56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save [them]. And they went to another village.

57 And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain [man] said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.

58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air [have] nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay [his] head.

59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.

60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.

61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.

62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

1 AFTER these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself
would come.

2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly [is] great, but the labourers [are] few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send
forth labourers into his harvest.

3 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.

4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.

5 And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace [be] to this house.

6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.

7 And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.

8 And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:

9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.

10 But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,

11 Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is
come nigh unto you.

12 But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.

13 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you, they
had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

14 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.

15 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.

16 He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.

17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.

18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and
prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.

22 All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and [he] to
whom the Son will reveal [him].

23 And he turned him unto [his] disciples, and said privately, Blessed [are] the eyes which see the things that ye see:

24 For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen [them]; and to hear those things
which ye hear, and have not heard [them].

25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

27 And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy
mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.

28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

30 And Jesus answering said, A certain [man] went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and
wounded [him], and departed, leaving [him] half dead.

31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked [on him], and passed by on the other side.

33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion [on him],

34 And went to [him], and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of
him.

35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave [them] to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever
thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.

36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?

37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.

38 Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.

39 And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word.

40 But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone?
bid her therefore that she help me.

41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:

42 But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him?

7 And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee.

8 I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as
he needeth.

9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if [he ask] a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?

12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?

13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall [your] heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them
that ask him?

14 And he was casting out a devil, and it was dumb. And it came to pass, when the devil was gone out, the dumb spake; and the people wondered.

15 But some of them said, He casteth out devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils.

16 And others, tempting [him], sought of him a sign from heaven.

17 But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house [divided] against a
house falleth.

18 If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub.

19 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast [them] out? therefore shall they be your judges.

20 But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.

21 When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace:

22 But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth his
spoils.

23 He that is not with me is against me: and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.

24 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house
whence I came out.

25 And when he cometh, he findeth [it] swept and garnished.

26 Then goeth he, and taketh [to him] seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last [state] of that
man is worse than the first.

27 And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed [is] the womb that
bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.

28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed [are] they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

29 And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it,
but the sign of Jonas the prophet.

30 For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.

31 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and condemn them: for she came from the utmost parts of
the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon [is] here.

32 The men of Nineve shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and,
behold, a greater than Jonas [is] here.

34 The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when [thine eye] is evil, thy body also

36 If thy whole body therefore [be] full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give
thee light.

37 And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat.

38 And when the Pharisee saw [it], he marvelled that he had not first washed before dinner.

39 And the Lord said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and
wickedness.

40 [Ye] fools, did not he that made that which is without make that which is within also?

41 But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things are clean unto you.

42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to
have done, and not to leave the other undone.

43 Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets.

44 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men that walk over [them] are not aware [of
them].

45 Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto him, Master, thus saying thou reproachest us also.

46 And he said, Woe unto you also, [ye] lawyers! for ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with
one of your fingers.

47 Woe unto you! for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.

48 Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their sepulchres.

49 Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and [some] of them they shall slay and persecute:

50 That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;

51 From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias, which perished between the altar and the temple: verily I say unto you, It shall be required of
this generation.

52 Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered.

53 And as he said these things unto them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to urge [him] vehemently, and to provoke him to speak of many
things:

54 Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.

1 IN the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began
to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.

3 Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed
upon the housetops.

4 And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.

5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

4 And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.

5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God?

7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.

8 Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God:

9 But he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.

10 And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall
not be forgiven.

11 And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and [unto] magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or
what ye shall say:

12 For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.

13 And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.

14 And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?

15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.

16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:

17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?

18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.

19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, [and] be merry.

20 But God said unto him, [Thou] fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?

21 So [is] he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.

22 And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put
on.

23 The life is more than meat, and the body [is more] than raiment.

24 Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better
than the fowls?

25 And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?

26 If ye then be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?

27 Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of
these.

28 If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more [will he clothe] you, O ye of little
faith?

29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind.

30 For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things.

31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.

32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.

33 Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth,
neither moth corrupteth.

34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

37 Blessed [are] those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them
to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.

38 And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find [them] so, blessed are those servants.

39 And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his

40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.

41 Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us, or even to all?

42 And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom [his] lord shall make ruler over his household, to give [them their] portion of
meat in due season?

43 Blessed [is] that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler over all that he hath.

45 But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the menservants and maidens, and to eat and drink,
and to be drunken;

46 The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for [him], and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and
will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.

47 And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not [himself], neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many [stripes].

48 But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few [stripes]. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him
shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.

49 I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?

50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished!

51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:

52 For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.

53 The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother;
the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

54 And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is.

55 And when [ye see] the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass.

56 [Ye] hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time?

57 Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right?

58 When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate, [as thou art] in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he
hale thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison.

59 I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast paid the very last mite.

1 THERE were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

6 He spake also this parable; A certain [man] had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.

7 Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why
cumbereth it the ground?

8 And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung [it]:

9 And if it bear fruit, [well]: and if not, [then] after that thou shalt cut it down.

10 And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.

11 And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up [herself].

12 And when Jesus saw her, he called [her to him], and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.

13 And he laid [his] hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.

14 And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because that Jesus had healed on the sabbath day, and said unto the people, There are
six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the sabbath day.

15 The Lord then answered him, and said, [Thou] hypocrite, doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or [his] ass from the stall, and lead
[him] away to watering?

16 And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the
sabbath day?

17 And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: and all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.

18 Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I resemble it?

19 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his garden; and it grew, and waxed a great tree; and the fowls of the air lodged
in the branches of it.

20 And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God?

21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

22 And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.

1 AND it came to pass, as he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day, that they watched him.

2 And, behold, there was a certain man before him which had the dropsy.

3 And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day?

4 And they held their peace. And he took [him], and healed him, and let him go;

5 And answered them, saying, Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen into a pit, and will not straightway pull him out on the sabbath day?

6 And they could not answer him again to these things.

7 And he put forth a parable to those which were bidden, when he marked how they chose out the chief rooms; saying unto them,

8 When thou art bidden of any [man] to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room; lest a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him;

9 And he that bade thee and him come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room.

10 But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that bade thee cometh, he may say unto thee, Friend, go up higher:
then shalt thou have worship in the presence of them that sit at meat with thee.

11 For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

12 Then said he also to him that bade him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor
[thy] rich neighbours; lest they also bid thee again, and a recompence be made thee.

13 But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:

14 And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.

15 And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed [is] he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.

16 Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many:

17 And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.

18 And they all with one [consent] began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I
pray thee have me excused.

19 And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.

20 And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.

21 So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the
streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind.

22 And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room.

23 And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel [them] to come in, that my house may be filled.

24 For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.

25 And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said unto them,

26 If any [man] come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he
cannot be my disciple.

34 Salt [is] good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned?

35 It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill; [but] men cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

1 THEN drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.

2 And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.

3 And he spake this parable unto them, saying,

4 What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is
lost, until he find it?

5 And when he hath found [it], he layeth [it] on his shoulders, rejoicing.

6 And when he cometh home, he calleth together [his] friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which
was lost.

7 I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no
repentance.

8 Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find
[it]?

9 And when she hath found [it], she calleth [her] friends and [her] neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I
had lost.

10 Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.

11 And he said, A certain man had two sons:

12 And the younger of them said to [his] father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth [to me]. And he divided unto them [his] living.

13 And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with
riotous living.

14 And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.

15 And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.

16 And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him.

17 And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!

18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,

19 And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.

and kissed him.

21 And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.
19 And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.

20 And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck,

21 And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.

22 But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put [it] on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on [his] feet:

23 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill [it]; and let us eat, and be merry:

24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.

25 Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing.

26 And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.

27 And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.

28 And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.

29 And he answering said to [his] father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou
never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:

30 But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.

31 And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.

32 It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

1 AND he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his
goods.

2 And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.

3 Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.

4 I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.

5 So he called every one of his lord's debtors [unto him], and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?

6 And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.

7 Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write
fourscore.

8 And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the
children of light.

9 And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting
habitations.

10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true [riches]?

12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?

13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye
cannot serve God and mammon.

14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.

15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among
men is abomination in the sight of God.

19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:

20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,

21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;

23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue;
for I am tormented in this flame.

25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted,
and thou art tormented.

26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass
to us, that [would come] from thence.

27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:

28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.

30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.

31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

1 THEN said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe [unto him], through whom they come!

2 It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

3 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.

4 And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him.

5 And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.

6 And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou
planted in the sea; and it should obey you.

7 But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to
meat?

8 And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward
thou shalt eat and drink?

9 Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I trow not.

10 So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which
was our duty to do.

12 And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:

13 And they lifted up [their] voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.

14 And when he saw [them], he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.

15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,

16 And fell down on [his] face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.

17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where [are] the nine?

18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.

19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh
not with observation:

21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

22 And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see [it].

23 And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after [them], nor follow [them].

24 For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one [part] under heaven, shineth unto the other [part] under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be
in his day.

25 But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.

26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

27 They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and
destroyed them all.

28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed [them] all.

30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

31 In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let
him likewise not return back.

32 Remember Lot's wife.

33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.

34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two [men] in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

35 Two [women] shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

36 Two [men] shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body [is], thither will the eagles be gathered
together.

1 AND he spake a parable unto them [to this end], that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:

5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.
3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.

4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.

7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?

8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

9 And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:

10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.

11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men [are], extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as
this publican.

12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.

13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as [his] eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me
a sinner.

14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified [rather] than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that
humbleth himself shall be exalted.

15 And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when [his] disciples saw [it], they rebuked them.

16 But Jesus called them [unto him], and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

17 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.

18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none [is] good, save one, [that is], God.

20 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy
mother.

21 And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.

22 Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou
shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

23 And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.

24 And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

25 For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

26 And they that heard [it] said, Who then can be saved?

27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.

28 Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.

29 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of
God's sake,

30 Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.

31 Then he took [unto him] the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning
the Son of man shall be accomplished.

32 For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:

33 And they shall scourge [him], and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.

39 And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, [Thou] Son of David, have mercy on me.

40 And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him,

41 Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.

42 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.

43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw [it], gave praise unto God.

1 AND [Jesus] entered and passed through Jericho.

2 And, behold, [there was] a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.

3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.

4 And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that [way].

5 And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide
at thy house.

6 And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.

7 And when they saw [it], they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.

8 And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man
by false accusation, I restore [him] fourfold.

9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.

10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

11 And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of
God should immediately appear.

12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.

13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.

14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this [man] to reign over us.

15 And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom
he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.

16 Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.

17 And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.

18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.

19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.

20 And another came, saying, Lord, behold, [here is] thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:

21 For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.

22 And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, [thou] wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I
laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:

23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?

24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give [it] to him that hath ten pounds.

25 (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)

26 For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.

27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay [them] before me.

28 And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.

29 And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called [the mount] of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,

30 Saying, Go ye into the village over against [you]; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and
bring [him hither].

31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose [him]? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.

32 And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.

33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?

34 And they said, The Lord hath need of him.

35 And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.

36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.

37 And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God
with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;

38 Saying, Blessed [be] the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.

39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.

40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,

42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things [which belong] unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.

43 For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,

44 And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou
knewest not the time of thy visitation.

45 And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought;

46 Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.

47 And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,

48 And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.

3 And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me:
1 AND it came to pass, [that] on one of those days, as he taught the people in the temple, and preached the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes
came upon [him] with the elders,

2 And spake unto him, saying, Tell us, by what authority doest thou these things? or who is he that gave thee this authority?

3 And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me:

4 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?

5 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed ye him not?

6 But and if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us: for they be persuaded that John was a prophet.

7 And they answered, that they could not tell whence [it was].

8 And Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

9 Then began he to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country
for a long time.

10 And at the season he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and
sent [him] away empty.

11 And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and entreated [him] shamefully, and sent [him] away empty.

12 And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast [him] out.

13 Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence [him] when they see him.

14 But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be
ours.

15 So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed [him]. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them?

16 He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard [it], they said, God forbid.

17 And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?

18 Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

19 And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken
this parable against them.

20 And they watched [him], and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might
deliver him unto the power and authority of the governor.

21 And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, neither acceptest thou the person [of any], but teachest the
way of God truly:

22 Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or no?

23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, Why tempt ye me?

24 Shew me a penny. Whose image and superscription hath it? They answered and said, Caesar's.

25 And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar's, and unto God the things which be God's.

26 And they could not take hold of his words before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.

27 Then came to [him] certain of the Sadducees, which deny that there is any resurrection; and they asked him,

28 Saying, Master, Moses wrote unto us, If any man's brother die, having a wife, and he die without children, that his brother should take his wife,
and raise up seed unto his brother.

29 There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died without children.

30 And the second took her to wife, and he died childless.

31 And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: and they left no children, and died.

32 Last of all

33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.
31 And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: and they left no children, and died.

32 Last of all the woman died also.

33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.

34 And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:

35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:

36 Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.

37 Now that the dead are raised, even Moses shewed at the bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God
of Jacob.

38 For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.

39 Then certain of the scribes answering said, Master, thou hast well said.

40 And after that they durst not ask him any [question at all].

41 And he said unto them, How say they that Christ is David's son?

42 And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,

43 Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.

44 David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he then his son?

45 Then in the audience of all the people he said unto his disciples,

46 Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief
rooms at feasts;

47 Which devour widows' houses, and for a shew make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.

1 AND he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.

2 And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.

3 And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:

4 For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.

5 And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said,

6 [As for] these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown
down.

7 And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign [will there be] when these things shall come to pass?

8 And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and the time draweth near: go ye not
therefore after them.

9 But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end [is] not by and by.

10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:

11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

12 But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute [you], delivering [you] up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought
before kings and rulers for my name's sake.

13 And it shall turn to you for a testimony.

14 Settle [it] therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:

15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.

16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and [some] of you shall they cause to be put to death.

17 And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name's sake.

18 But there shall not an hair of your head perish.

19 In your patience possess ye your souls.

20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.

21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the
countries enter thereinto.

22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

23 But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this
people.

24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles,
until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.

25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves
roaring;

26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

29 And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;

30 When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand.

31 So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.

32 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.

33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and [so] that day
come upon you unawares.

35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.

36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the
Son of man.

37 And in the day time he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went out, and abode in the mount that is called [the mount] of Olives.

38 And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, for to hear him.

1 NOW the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.

2 And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.

3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.

4 And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.

4 And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.

5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.

6 And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.

7 Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.

8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat.

9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?

10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the
house where he entereth in.

11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my
disciples?

12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.

13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.

15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:

16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide [it] among yourselves:

18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake [it], and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance
of me.

20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup [is] the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

21 But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me [is] with me on the table.

22 And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!

23 And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.

24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.

25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.

26 But ye [shall] not [be] so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

27 For whether [is] greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? [is] not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

28 Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.

29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;

30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired [to have] you, that he may sift [you] as wheat:

32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.

33 And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.

34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

35 And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take [it], and likewise [his] scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his
garment, and buy one.

38 And they said, Lord, behold, here [are] two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.

39 And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.

40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.

41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,

42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

43 And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.

44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

45 And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,

46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

47 And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss
him.

48 But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

49 When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

50 And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

51 And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

52 Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with
swords and staves?

53 When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

54 Then took they him, and led [him], and brought him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off.

55 And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.

56 But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.

57 And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.

58 And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.

59 And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this [fellow] also was with him: for he is a Galilaean.

60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.

61 And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou
shalt deny me thrice.

62 And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

63 And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote [him].

64 And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?

65 And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.

66 And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,

67 Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:

1 AND the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.

2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this [fellow] perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he
himself is Christ a King.

3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest [it].

4 Then said Pilate to the chief priests and [to] the people, I find no fault in this man.

5 And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.

6 When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.

7 And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.

8 And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was desirous to see him of a long [season], because he had heard many things of him;
and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.

9 Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.

10 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.

11 And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked [him], and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.

12 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.

13 And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

14 Said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people: and, behold, I, having examined [him] before you, have
found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:

15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.

16 I will therefore chastise him, and release [him].

17 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)

18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this [man], and release unto us Barabbas:

19 (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.)

20 Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake again to them.

21 But they cried, saying, Crucify [him], crucify him.

22 And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let
[him] go.

23 And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.

24 And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.

25 And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.

26 And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might
bear [it] after Jesus.

27 And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.
26 And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might
bear [it] after Jesus.

27 And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.

28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.

29 For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed [are] the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never
gave suck.

30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.

31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?

32 And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.

33 And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the
other on the left.

34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided [him], saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the
chosen of God.

36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,

37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save thyself.

38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.

40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?

41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.

42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.

43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.

44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.

45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.

46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.

47 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.

48 And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.

49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.

50 And, behold, [there was] a man named Joseph, a counsellor; [and he was] a good man, and a just:

51 (The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) [he was] of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the
kingdom of God.

52 This [man] went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.

53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.

54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on.

55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was laid.

56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.

1 NOW upon the first [day] of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and
certain [others] with them.

2 And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.

3 And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.

4 And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:

5 And as they were afraid, and bowed down [their] faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?

6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,

7 Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.

8 And they remembered his words,

9 And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.

10 It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary [the mother] of James, and other [women that were] with them, which told these things unto the
apostles.

11 And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.

12 Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in
himself at that which was come to pass.

13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem [about] threescore furlongs.

14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed [together] and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.

16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.

17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications [are] these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?

18 And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things
which are come to pass there in these days?

19 And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word
before God and all the people:

20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.

21 But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.

22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;

23 And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.

24 And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found [it] even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.

25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:

26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?

27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.

29 But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.

30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed [it], and brake, and gave to them.

31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed [it], and brake, and gave to them.

31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.

32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?

33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,

34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.

35 And they told what things [were done] in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.

36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace [be] unto you.

37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.

38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?

39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them [his] hands and [his] feet.

41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?

42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb.

43 And he took [it], and did eat before them.

44 And he said unto them, These [are] the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were
written in the law of Moses, and [in] the prophets, and [in] the psalms, concerning me.

45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,

46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:

47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

48 And ye are witnesses of these things.

49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.

51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.

52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy:

53 And were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.


John
Chapter 1

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 IN the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

2 The same was in the beginning with God.

3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

6 There was a man sent from God, whose name [was] John.

7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all [men] through him might believe.

8 He was not that Light, but [was sent] to bear witness of that Light.

9 [That] was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all [men] through him might believe.

8 He was not that Light, but [was sent] to bear witness of that Light.

9 [That] was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name:

13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and
truth.

15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.

17 For the law was given by Moses, [but] grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared [him].

19 And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?

20 And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.

21 And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No.

22 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?

23 He said, I [am] the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.

24 And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.

25 And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet?

26 John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;

27 He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.

28 These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

29 The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

30 This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.

31 And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.

32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.

33 And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and
remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.

34 And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

35 Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;

36 And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!

37 And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.

38 Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted,
Master,) where dwellest thou?

39 He saith unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.

40 One of the two which heard John [speak], and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

41 He first findeth his own brother Simon, and saith unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.

43 The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow me.

44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the
son of Joseph.

46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.

47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

48 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the
fig tree, I saw thee.

49 Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.

50 Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these.

51 And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon
the Son of man.

1 AND the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:

2 And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.

3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.

4 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.

5 His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do [it].

6 And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.

7 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare [it].

9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;)
the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: [but] thou
hast kept the good wine until now.

11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and they continued there not many days.

13 And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,

14 And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:

15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers'
money, and overthrew the tables;

16 And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house an house of merchandise.

17 And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of thine house hath eaten me up.

18 Then answered
 Copyright          the Jews
           (c) 2005-2009,    and said

19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

21 But he spake of the temple of his body.

22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the
word which Jesus had said.

23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast [day], many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did.

24 But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all [men],

25 And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.

Chapter 3

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 THERE was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:

2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles
that thou doest, except God be with him.

3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?

5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and [of] the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that
is born of the Spirit.

9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?

10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?

11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.

12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you [of] heavenly things?

13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, [even] the Son of man which is in heaven.

14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only
begotten Son of God.

19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

22 After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized.

23 And John also was baptizing in AEnon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.

22 After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized.

23 And John also was baptizing in AEnon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.

24 For John was not yet cast into prison.

25 Then there arose a question between [some] of John's disciples and the Jews about purifying.

26 And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same
baptizeth, and all [men] come to him.

27 John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.

28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.

29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the
bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.

30 He must increase, but I [must] decrease.

31 He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.

32 And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth; and no man receiveth his testimony.

33 He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.

34 For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure [unto him].

35 The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.

36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

Chapter 4

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 WHEN therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,

2 (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)

3 He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.

4 And he must needs go through Samaria.

5 Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

6 Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with [his] journey, sat thus on the well: [and] it was about the sixth hour.

7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.

8 (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)

9 Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have
no dealings with the Samaritans.

10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of
him, and he would have given thee living water.

11 The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?

12 Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?

13 Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:

14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water
springing up into everlasting life.

15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
15 The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:

18 For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.

19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.

22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.

23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship
him.

24 God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.

25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.

26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am [he].

27 And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with
her?

28 The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,

29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?

30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.

31 In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.

32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.

33 Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him [ought] to eat?

34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are
white already to harvest.

36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.

37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.

38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.

39 And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.

40 So when the Samaritans were come unto him, they besought him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.

41 And many more believed because of his own word;

42 And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard [him] ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ,
the Saviour of the world.

43 Now after two days he departed thence, and went into Galilee.

44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country.

45 Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also
went unto the feast.

46 So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.

47 When he

for he was at the point of death.

48 Then said Jesus unto him, Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.

49 The nobleman saith unto him, Sir, come down ere my child die.

50 Jesus saith unto him, Go thy way; thy son liveth. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.

51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told [him], saying, Thy son liveth.

52 Then enquired he of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.

53 So the father knew that [it was] at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.

54 This [is] again the second miracle [that] Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.

1 AFTER this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

2 Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep [market] a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.

3 In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.

4 For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in
was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.

5 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.

6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time [in that case], he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?

7 The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth
down before me.

8 Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.

9 And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.

10 The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry [thy] bed.

11 He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk.

12 Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?

13 And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in [that] place.

14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.

15 The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.

16 And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.

17 But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.

18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making
himself equal with God.

19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for
what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

20 For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.

21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth [them]; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.

22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

23 That all [men] should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent
him.
21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth [them]; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.

22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

23 That all [men] should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent
him.

24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into
condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.

26 For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;

27 And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.

28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,

29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.

30 I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which
hath sent me.

31 If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.

32 There is another that beareth witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesseth of me is true.

33 Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.

34 But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved.

35 He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.

36 But I have greater witness than [that] of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of
me, that the Father hath sent me.

37 And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.

38 And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.

39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

40 And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.

41 I receive not honour from men.

42 But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

43 I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.

44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that [cometh] from God only?

45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is [one] that accuseth you, [even] Moses, in whom ye trust.

46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.

47 But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

1 AFTER these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is [the sea] of Tiberias.

2 And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.

3 And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.

4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.

eat?
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.

5 When Jesus then lifted up [his] eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may
eat?

6 And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.

7 Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.

8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, saith unto him,

9 There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?

10 And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

11 And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and
likewise of the fishes as much as they would.

12 When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.

13 Therefore they gathered [them] together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above
unto them that had eaten.

14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.

15 When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself
alone.

16 And when even was [now] come, his disciples went down unto the sea,

17 And entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.

18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.

19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh unto the ship: and they
were afraid.

20 But he saith unto them, It is I; be not afraid.

21 Then they willingly received him into the ship: and immediately the ship was at the land whither they went.

22 The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his
disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but [that] his disciples were gone away alone;

23 (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)

24 When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.

25 And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?

26 Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves,
and were filled.

27 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for
him hath God the Father sealed.

28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

30 They said therefore unto him, What sign shewest thou then, that we may see, and believe thee? what dost thou work?

31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.

32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread
from heaven.

33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

34 Then said

35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

36 But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.

37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.

39 And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last
day.

40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him
up at the last day.

41 The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.

42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?

43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.

44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh
unto me.

46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.

47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

48 I am that bread of life.

49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh,
which I will give for the life of the world.

52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us [his] flesh to eat?

53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.

59 These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.

60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard [this], said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?

61 When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?

62 [What] and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?

63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, [they] are spirit, and [they] are life.

64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.

65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.

69 And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.

70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?

71 He spake of Judas Iscariot [the son] of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.

1 AFTER these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.

2 Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.

3 His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.

4 For [there is] no man [that] doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world.

5 For neither did his brethren believe in him.

6 Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready.

7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.

8 Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; for my time is not yet full come.

9 When he had said these words unto them, he abode [still] in Galilee.

10 But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.

11 Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?

12 And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth the
people.

13 Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.

14 Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.

15 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

16 Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or [whether] I speak of myself.

18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

19 Did not Moses give you the law, and [yet] none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?

20 The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth about to kill thee?

21 Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel.

22 Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man.

23 If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man
every whit whole on the sabbath day?

24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

25 Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill?

26 But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?

25 Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill?

26 But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?

27 Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.

28 Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent
me is true, whom ye know not.

29 But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.

30 Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

31 And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this [man] hath done?

32 The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.

33 Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and [then] I go unto him that sent me.

34 Ye shall seek me, and shall not find [me]: and where I am, [thither] ye cannot come.

35 Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach
the Gentiles?

36 What [manner of] saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find [me]: and where I am, [thither] ye cannot come?

37 In the last day, that great [day] of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.

38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet [given]; because that Jesus was not
yet glorified.)

40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.

41 Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?

42 Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?

43 So there was a division among the people because of him.

44 And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.

45 Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him?

46 The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.

47 Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived?

48 Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him?

49 But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed.

50 Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them,)

51 Doth our law judge [any] man, before it hear him, and know what he doeth?

52 They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.

53 And every man went unto his own house.

4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
2 And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.

3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,

4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.

5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?

6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with [his] finger wrote on the ground, [as though
he heard them not].

7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.

8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.

9 And they which heard [it], being convicted by [their own] conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, [even] unto the last: and Jesus
was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

10 When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man
condemned thee?

11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of
life.

13 The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.

14 Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, [yet] my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye
cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.

15 Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.

16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.

17 It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.

18 I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.

19 Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known
my Father also.

20 These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.

21 Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come.

22 Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.

23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.

24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am [he], ye shall die in your sins.

25 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even [the same] that I said unto you from the beginning.

26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.

27 They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.

28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am [he], and [that] I do nothing of myself; but as my
Father hath taught me, I speak these things.

29 And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.

30 As he spake these words, many believed on him.

31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, [then] are ye my disciples indeed;

34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.

35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: [but] the Son abideth ever.
32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

33 They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?

34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.

35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: [but] the Son abideth ever.

36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

37 I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.

38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.

39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of
Abraham.

40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.

41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, [even] God.

42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent
me.

43 Why do ye not understand my speech? [even] because ye cannot hear my word.

44 Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth,
because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

45 And because I tell [you] the truth, ye believe me not.

46 Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?

47 He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear [them] not, because ye are not of God.

48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?

49 Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.

50 And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.

51 Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.

52 Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying,
he shall never taste of death.

53 Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?

54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:

55 Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his
saying.

56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw [it], and was glad.

57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?

58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

59 Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

1 AND as [Jesus] passed by, he saw a man which was blind from [his] birth.

2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

6 When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,

7 And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

8 The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?

9 Some said, This is he: others [said], He is like him: [but] he said, I am [he].

10 Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?

11 He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I
went and washed, and I received sight.

12 Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.

13 They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.

14 And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

15 Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do
see.

16 Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner
do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

17 They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.

18 But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received
his sight.

19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?

20 His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:

21 But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.

22 These [words] spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he
should be put out of the synagogue.

23 Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

24 Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

25 He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner [or no], I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

26 Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

27 He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear [it] again? will ye also be his disciples?

28 Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.

29 We know that God spake unto Moses: [as for] this [fellow], we know not from whence he is.

30 The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and [yet] he hath opened mine
eyes.

31 Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

32 Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.

33 If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.

34 They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

38 And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.

39 And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.

40 And [some] of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?

41 Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

Chapter 10

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 VERILY, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a
robber.

2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.

4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.

5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.

6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.

7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.

8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.

9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have [it] more
abundantly.

11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the
wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.

13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.

14 I am the good shepherd, and know my [sheep], and am known of mine.

15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.

16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, [and] one
shepherd.

17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.

18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I
received of my Father.

19 There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.

20 And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?

21 Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?

24 Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.
22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.

23 And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.

24 Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.

25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me.

26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.

27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any [man] pluck them out of my hand.

29 My Father, which gave [them] me, is greater than all; and no [man] is able to pluck [them] out of my Father's hand.

30 I and [my] Father are one.

31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.

32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?

33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?

35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;

36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?

37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.

38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father [is] in me, and I in him.

39 Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,

40 And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized; and there he abode.

41 And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spake of this man were true.

42 And many believed on him there.

Chapter 11

1 NOW a certain [man] was sick, [named] Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

2 (It was [that] Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

3 Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.

4 When Jesus heard [that], he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.

5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

6 When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.

7 Then after that saith he to [his] disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.

8 [His] disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?

9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.

10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.

11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.

12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.

12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.

13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.

14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.

16 Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

17 Then when Jesus came, he found that he had [lain] in the grave four days already.

18 Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:

19 And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

20 Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat [still] in the house.

21 Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.

22 But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give [it] thee.

23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.

24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.

25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?

27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.

28 And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.

29 As soon as she heard [that], she arose quickly, and came unto him.

30 Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.

31 The Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her,
saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.

32 Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother
had not died.

33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled,

34 And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.

35 Jesus wept.

36 Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!

37 And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?

38 Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

39 Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been [dead]
four days.

40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

41 Then they took away the stone [from the place] where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up [his] eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou
hast heard me.

42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said [it], that they may believe that thou hast sent me.

43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

45 Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.

46 But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done.

47 Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.

48 If we let him thus alone, all [men] will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation.

49 And one of them, [named] Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,

50 Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.

51 And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation;

52 And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.

53 Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death.

54 Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and
there continued with his disciples.

55 And the Jews' passover was nigh at hand: and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.

56 Then sought they for Jesus, and spake among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?

57 Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he were, he should shew [it], that they
might take him.

Chapter 12

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 THEN Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.

2 There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.

3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was
filled with the odour of the ointment.

4 Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's [son], which should betray him,

5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor?

6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.

7 Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this.

8 For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always.

9 Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he
had raised from the dead.

10 But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;

11 Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.

12 On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

13 Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed [is] the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.

14 And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,

15 Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.

16 These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him,
and [that] they had done these things unto him.

17 The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.

18 For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.

19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.

20 And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:

21 The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.

22 Philip cometh and telleth Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.

23 And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.

24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.

25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.

26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will [my] Father honour.

27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.

28 Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, [saying], I have both glorified [it], and will glorify [it] again.

29 The people therefore, that stood by, and heard [it], said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him.

30 Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.

31 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all [men] unto me.

33 This he said, signifying what death he should die.

34 The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever: and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? who
is this Son of man?

35 Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh
in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.

36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light. These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from
them.

37 But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:

38 That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the

39 Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,

40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with [their] eyes, nor understand with [their] heart, and be
converted, and I should heal them.

41 These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.

42 Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess [him], lest they should be put
out of the synagogue:

43 For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

44 Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.

Chapter 13

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 NOW before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having
loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.

2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's [son], to betray him;

3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God;

4 He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.

5 After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe [them] with the towel wherewith he was girded.

6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.

8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also [my] hands and [my] head.

10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash [his] feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.

11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.

12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?

13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for [so] I am.

14 If I then, [your] Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.

15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.

16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.

17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

18 I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel
against me.

19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am [he].

20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

21 When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

22 Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.

23 Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.

24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.

25 He then lying on Jesus' breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?

26 Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped [it]. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave [it] to Judas Iscariot, [the
son] of Simon.

27 And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.

29 For some [of them] thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy [those things] that we have need of against the feast;
or, that he should give something to the poor.

30 He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.

31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.

32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.

33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.

34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

35 By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

36 Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me
afterwards.

37 Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.

38 Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me
thrice.

1 LET not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if [it were] not [so], I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, [there] ye may be also.

4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and
how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father?

10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that
dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

11 Believe me that I [am] in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.

12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater [works] than these shall he do; because I go
unto my Father.

13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do [it].

15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.

16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

him, and will manifest myself to him.

22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?

23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make
our abode with him.

24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.

25 These things have I spoken unto you, being [yet] present with you.

26 But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your
remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come [again] unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father:
for my Father is greater than I.

29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.

30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.

1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every [branch] that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

5 I am the vine, ye [are] the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast [them] into the fire, and they are burned.

7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.

10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and [that] your joy might be full.

12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.

15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of
my Father I have made known unto you.

18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before [it hated] you.

19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the
world hateth you.

20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they
have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.

22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.

23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also.

24 If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and
my Father.

25 But [this cometh to pass], that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.

26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, [even] the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall
testify of me:

27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.

1 THESE things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.

2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.

4 But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at
the beginning, because I was with you.

5 But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?

6 But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart.

7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I
will send him unto you.

8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:

9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;

10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;

11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.

13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that]
shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew [it] unto you.

18 They said therefore, What is this that he saith, A little while? we cannot tell what he saith.

19 Now Jesus knew that they were desirous to ask him, and said unto them, Do ye enquire among yourselves of that I said, A little while, and ye shall
not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me?

20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be
turned into joy.

21 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the
anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.

22 And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.

23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give [it] you.

24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

25 These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time cometh, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall shew you
plainly of the Father.

26 At that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you:

27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.

28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.

29 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb.

30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that thou camest forth from God.

31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe?

32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone,
because the Father is with me.

33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have
overcome the world.

3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

1 WHEN Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered, and
his disciples.

2 And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with his disciples.

3 Judas then, having received a band [of men] and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and
weapons.

4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek ye?

5 They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am [he]. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them.

6 As soon then as he had said unto them, I am [he], they went backward, and fell to the ground.

7 Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.

8 Jesus answered, I have told you that I am [he]: if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way:

9 That the saying might be fulfilled, which he spake, Of them which thou gavest me have I lost none.

10 Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

12 Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,

13 And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year.

14 Now Caiaphas was he, which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and [so did] another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace
of the high priest.

16 But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the
door, and brought in Peter.

17 Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also [one] of this man's disciples? He saith, I am not.

18 And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them,
and warmed himself.

19 The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.

20 Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret
have I said nothing.

21 Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said.

22 And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest
so?

23 Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?

24 Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.

25 And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him, Art not thou also [one] of his disciples? He denied [it], and said, I am
not.

26 One of the servants of the high priest, being [his] kinsman whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?

27 Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew.

28 Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they
should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.

29 Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man?

30 They answered and said unto him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto thee.

31 Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any
man to death:

32 That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying what death he should die.

33 Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?

34 Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me?

35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?

36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered
to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.

37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came
I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault [at
all].

39 But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?

1 THEN Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged [him].

2 And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put [it] on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,

3 And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.

4 Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.

5 Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And [Pilate] saith unto them, Behold the man!

6 When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify [him], crucify [him]. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and
crucify [him]: for I find no fault in him.

7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

8 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;

9 And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

10 Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?

11 Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power [at all] against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee
hath the greater sin.

12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever
maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.

13 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in
the Hebrew, Gabbatha.

14 And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!

15 But they cried out, Away with [him], away with [him], crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered,
We have no king but Caesar.

16 Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led [him] away.

17 And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called [the place] of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:

18 Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.

19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put [it] on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.

20 This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, [and] Greek, [and]
Latin.

21 Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.

22 Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.

23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also [his] coat: now the coat
was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

24 They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith,
They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.

25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the [wife] of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.

26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!

27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own [home].

28 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.

29 Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put [it] upon hyssop, and put [it] to his mouth.
26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!

30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day
was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and [that] they might be taken away.

32 Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.

33 But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:

34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.

35 And he that saw [it] bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.

36 For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.

37 And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

38 And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body
of Jesus: and Pilate gave [him] leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.

39 And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound
[weight].

40 Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.

41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.

42 There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation [day]; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.

Chapter 20

1 THE first [day] of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the
sepulchre.

2 Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord
out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him.

3 Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre.

4 So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.

5 And he stooping down, [and looking in], saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.

6 Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,

7 And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.

8 Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.

9 For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.

10 Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.

11 But Mary stood without at the sepulchre weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, [and looked] into the sepulchre,

12 And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.

13 And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She saith unto them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they
have laid him.

14 And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.

14 And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.

15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have

16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.

17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father,
and your Father; and [to] my God, and your God.

18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and [that] he had spoken these things unto her.

19 Then the same day at evening, being the first [day] of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews,
came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace [be] unto you.

20 And when he had so said, he shewed unto them [his] hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.

21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace [be] unto you: as [my] Father hath sent me, even so send I you.

22 And when he had said this, he breathed on [them], and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:

23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; [and] whose soever [sins] ye retain, they are retained.

24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and
put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.

26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: [then] came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and
said, Peace [be] unto you.

27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust [it] into my side: and be not
faithless, but believing.

28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.

29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed [are] they that have not seen, and [yet] have believed.

30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:

31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

Chapter 21

1 AFTER these things Jesus shewed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise shewed he [himself].

2 There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the [sons] of Zebedee, and two other of his
disciples.

3 Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and
that night they caught nothing.

4 But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.

5 Then Jesus saith unto them, Children, have ye any meat? They answered him, No.

6 And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for
the multitude of fishes.

7 Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt [his] fisher's coat
[unto him], (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.

8 And the other disciples came in a little ship; (for they were not far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with fishes.

9 As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.

10 Jesus saith unto them, Bring of the fish which ye have now caught.

11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the
net broken.
9 As soon then as they were come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.

11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the
net broken.

12 Jesus saith unto them, Come [and] dine. And none of the disciples durst ask him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord.

13 Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.

14 This is now the third time that Jesus shewed himself to his disciples, after that he was risen from the dead.

15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou
knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.

16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He
saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, [son] of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou
me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

18 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old,
thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry [thee] whither thou wouldest not.

19 This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me.

20 Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he
that betrayeth thee?

21 Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what [shall] this man [do]?

22 Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what [is that] to thee? follow thou me.

23 Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that
he tarry till I come, what [is that] to thee?

24 This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true.

25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not
contain the books that should be written. Amen.


Acts
Chapter 1

1 THE former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,

2 Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:

3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things
pertaining to the kingdom of God:

4 And, being assembled together with [them], commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father,
which, [saith he], ye have heard of me.

5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?

7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and
in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.

10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;

11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come
in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.

13 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas,
Bartholomew, and Matthew, James [the son] of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas [the brother] of James.

14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren.

15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty,)

16 Men [and] brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas,
which was guide to them that took Jesus.

17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.

18 Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out.

19 And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of
blood.

20 For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take.

21 Wherefore of these men which have companied with us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

22 Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his
resurrection.

23 And they appointed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.

24 And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all [men], shew whether of these two thou hast chosen,

25 That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.

26 And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.

1 AND when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.

6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own
language.

7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?

8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?

9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,

10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,

11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.

12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?

13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.

14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all [ye] that dwell at Jerusalem, be this
known unto you, and hearken to my words:
12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?

13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.

14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all [ye] that dwell at Jerusalem, be this
known unto you, and hearken to my words:

15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is [but] the third hour of the day.

16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;

17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:

20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come:

21 And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by
him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:

23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:

24 Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.

25 For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:

26 Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:

27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

28 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.

29 Men [and] brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this
day.

30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would
raise up Christ to sit on his throne;

31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.

32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.

33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which
ye now see and hear.

34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,

35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool.

36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.

37 Now when they heard [this], they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men [and] brethren, what shall
we do?

38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the
gift of the Holy Ghost.

39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, [even] as many as the Lord our God shall call.

40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.

41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added [unto them] about three thousand souls.

44 And all that believed were together, and had all things common;

45 And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all [men], as every man had need.

46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and
singleness of heart,

47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

Chapter 3

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 NOW Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, [being] the ninth [hour].

2 And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms
of them that entered into the temple;

3 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.

4 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.

5 And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.

6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.

7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted [him] up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.

8 And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God:

10 And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that
which had happened unto him.

11 And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly
wondering.

12 And when Peter saw [it], he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by
our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?

13 The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified his Son Jesus; whom ye delivered up, and denied him in the
presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let [him] go.

14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;

15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.

16 And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know: yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this
perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

17 And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did [it], as [did] also your rulers.

18 But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.

19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;

20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:

21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the
world began.

22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all
things whatsoever he shall say unto you.

23 And it shall come to pass, [that] every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.

24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.

25 Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the
things whatsoever he shall say unto you.

23 And it shall come to pass, [that] every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.

24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.

25 Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the
kindreds of the earth be blessed.

26 Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.

Chapter 4

1 AND as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,

2 Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

3 And they laid hands on them, and put [them] in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide.

4 Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.

5 And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,

6 And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together
at Jerusalem.

7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?

8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,

9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;

10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from
the dead, [even] by him doth this man stand here before you whole.

11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took
knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.

14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.

15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,

16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them [is] manifest to all them that dwell in
Jerusalem; and we cannot deny [it].

17 But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.

18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.

19 But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.

20 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.

21 So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all [men]
glorified God for that which was done.

22 For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was shewed.

23 And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them.

24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou [art] God, which hast made heaven, and earth,
and the sea, and all that in them is:

25 Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?

26 The kings

25 Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?

26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.

27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel,
were gathered together,

28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.

29 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word,

30 By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.

31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they
spake the word of God with boldness.

32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any [of them] that ought of the things which he possessed
was his own; but they had all things common.

33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all.

34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things
that were sold,

35 And laid [them] down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.

36 And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, [and] of the country of
Cyprus,

37 Having land, sold [it], and brought the money, and laid [it] at the apostles' feet.

1 BUT a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,

2 And kept back [part] of the price, his wife also being privy [to it], and brought a certain part, and laid [it] at the apostles' feet.

3 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back [part] of the price of the land?

4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart?
thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.

5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.

6 And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried [him] out, and buried [him].

7 And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.

8 And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much.

9 Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy
husband [are] at the door, and shall carry thee out.

10 Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying [her] forth,
buried [her] by her husband.

11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.

12 And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's
porch.

13 And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them.

14 And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)

15 Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid [them] on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by
might overshadow some of them.

16 There came also a multitude [out] of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits:
and they were healed every one.

16 There came also a multitude [out] of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits:

17 Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him, (which is the sect of the Sadducees,) and were filled with indignation,

18 And laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.

19 But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said,

20 Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.

21 And when they heard [that], they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were with
him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.

22 But when the officers came, and found them not in the prison, they returned, and told,

23 Saying, The prison truly found we shut with all safety, and the keepers standing without before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no
man within.

24 Now when the high priest and the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these things, they doubted of them whereunto this would
grow.

25 Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom ye put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.

26 Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: for they feared the people, lest they should have been stoned.

27 And when they had brought them, they set [them] before the council: and the high priest asked them,

28 Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and
intend to bring this man's blood upon us.

29 Then Peter and the [other] apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.

31 Him hath God exalted with his right hand [to be] a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.

32 And we are his witnesses of these things; and [so is] also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.

33 When they heard [that], they were cut [to the heart], and took counsel to slay them.

34 Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded
to put the apostles forth a little space;

35 And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men.

36 For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who
was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought.

37 After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away much people after him: he also perished; and all, [even] as many
as obeyed him, were dispersed.

38 And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:

39 But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God.

40 And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten [them], they commanded that they should not speak in the name of
Jesus, and let them go.

41 And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.

42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.

1 AND in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their
widows were neglected in the daily ministration.

2 Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples [unto them], and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.

3 Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this
business.

4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.

5 And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and
Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:

6 Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid [their] hands on them.

7 And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient
to the faith.

8 And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.

9 Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called [the synagogue] of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of
Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen.

10 And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake.

11 Then they suborned men, which said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and [against] God.

12 And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon [him], and caught him, and brought [him] to the council,

13 And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law:

14 For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered us.

15 And all that sat in the council, looking stedfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.

1 THEN said the high priest, Are these things so?

2 And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken; The God of glory appeared unto our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he
dwelt in Charran,

3 And said unto him, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.

4 Then came he out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land,
wherein ye now dwell.

5 And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not [so much as] to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to
his seed after him, when [as yet] he had no child.

6 And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat [them] evil
four hundred years.

7 And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.

8 And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so [Abraham] begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac [begat] Jacob; and
Jacob [begat] the twelve patriarchs.

9 And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him,

10 And delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor
over Egypt and all his house.

11 Now there came a dearth over all the land of Egypt and Chanaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance.

12 But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.

13 And at the second [time] Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph's kindred was made known unto Pharaoh.
11 Now there came a dearth over all the land of Egypt and Chanaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance.

12 But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.

13 And at the second [time] Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph's kindred was made known unto Pharaoh.

14 Then sent Joseph, and called his father Jacob to [him], and all his kindred, threescore and fifteen souls.

15 So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers,

16 And were carried over into Sychem, and laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor [the father] of
Sychem.

17 But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,

18 Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph.

19 The same dealt subtilly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live.

20 In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father's house three months:

21 And when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.

22 And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.

23 And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.

24 And seeing one [of them] suffer wrong, he defended [him], and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian:

25 For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.

26 And the next day he shewed himself unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye
wrong one to another?

27 But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?

28 Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday?

29 Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons.

30 And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.

31 When Moses saw [it], he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold [it], the voice of the Lord came unto him,

32 [Saying], I [am] the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and durst not
behold.

33 Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.

34 I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And
now come, I will send thee into Egypt.

35 This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send [to be] a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of
the angel which appeared to him in the bush.

36 He brought them out, after that he had shewed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.

37 This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him
shall ye hear.

38 This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and [with] our fathers: who received the
lively oracles to give unto us:

39 To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust [him] from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,

40 Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for [as for] this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become
of him.

41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.

43 Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away
beyond Babylon.

44 Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according to the
fashion that he had seen.

45 Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our
fathers, unto the days of David;

46 Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.

47 But Solomon built him an house.

48 Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,

49 Heaven [is] my throne, and earth [is] my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what [is] the place of my rest?

50 Hath not my hand made all these things?

51 Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers [did], so [do] ye.

52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom
ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:

53 Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept [it].

54 When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with [their] teeth.

55 But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,

56 And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.

57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,

58 And cast [him] out of the city, and stoned [him]: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose name was Saul.

59 And they stoned Stephen, calling upon [God], and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.

60 And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

1 AND Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were
all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.

2 And devout men carried Stephen [to his burial], and made great lamentation over him.

3 As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed [them] to prison.

4 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word.

5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.

6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did.

7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were possessed [with them]: and many taken with palsies, and that were lame,
were healed.

8 And there was great joy in that city.

9 But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that
himself was some great one:

10 To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God.
9 But there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that
himself was some great one:

10 To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God.

11 And to him they had regard, because that of long time he had bewitched them with sorceries.

12 But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men
and women.

13 Then Simon himself believed also: and when he was baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered, beholding the miracles and signs which
were done.

14 Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John:

15 Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost:

16 (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)

17 Then laid they [their] hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.

18 And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money,

19 Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.

20 But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.

21 Thou hast neither part nor lot in this matter: for thy heart is not right in the sight of God.

22 Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.

23 For I perceive that thou art in the gall of bitterness, and [in] the bond of iniquity.

24 Then answered Simon, and said, Pray ye to the Lord for me, that none of these things which ye have spoken come upon me.

25 And they, when they had testified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the gospel in many villages of the
Samaritans.

26 And the angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza,
which is desert.

27 And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the
charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship,

28 Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.

29 Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.

30 And Philip ran thither to [him], and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?

31 And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.

32 The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he
not his mouth:

33 In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.

34 And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?

35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.

36 And as they went on [their] way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, [here is] water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?

37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.

39 And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his
way rejoicing.

1 AND Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,

2 And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring
them bound unto Jerusalem.

3 And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:

4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: [it is] hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

6 And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord [said] unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall
be told thee what thou must do.

7 And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.

8 And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought [him] into Damascus.

9 And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink.

10 And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I [am here],
Lord.

11 And the Lord [said] unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for [one] called Saul, of
Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth,

12 And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting [his] hand on him, that he might receive his sight.

13 Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem:

14 And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name.

15 But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of
Israel:

16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.

17 And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, [even] Jesus, that appeared
unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.

18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.

19 And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.

20 And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

21 But all that heard [him] were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for
that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests?

22 But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ.

23 And after that many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill him:

24 But their laying await was known of Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him.

25 Then the disciples took him by night, and let [him] down by the wall in a basket.

26 And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to join himself to the disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and believed not that he was a
disciple.

to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.
26 And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to join himself to the disciples: but they were all afraid of him, and believed not that he was a
disciple.

27 But Barnabas took him, and brought [him] to the apostles, and declared unto them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken
to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.

28 And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem.

29 And he spake boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Grecians: but they went about to slay him.

30 [Which] when the brethren knew, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.

31 Then had the churches rest throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the
comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.

32 And it came to pass, as Peter passed throughout all [quarters], he came down also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda.

33 And there he found a certain man named AEneas, which had kept his bed eight years, and was sick of the palsy.

34 And Peter said unto him, AEneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.

35 And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron saw him, and turned to the Lord.

36 Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and
almsdeeds which she did.

37 And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid [her] in an upper chamber.

38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring [him] that he
would not delay to come to them.

39 Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping,
and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.

40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning [him] to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and
when she saw Peter, she sat up.

41 And he gave her [his] hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive.

42 And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord.

43 And it came to pass, that he tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon a tanner.

Chapter 10

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 THERE was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian [band],

2 [A] devout [man], and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.

3 He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.

4 And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a
memorial before God.

5 And now send men to Joppa, and call for [one] Simon, whose surname is Peter:

6 He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do.

7 And when the angel which spake unto Cornelius was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on
him continually;

8 And when he had declared all [these] things unto them, he sent them to Joppa.

9 On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew nigh unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:

10 And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,

11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:

12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.

13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.
10 And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,

11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending unto him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:

12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.

13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.

14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.

15 And the voice [spake] unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, [that] call not thou common.

16 This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.

17 Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made
enquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate,

18 And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.

19 While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee.

20 Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.

21 Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: what [is] the cause
wherefore ye are come?

22 And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that feareth God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned
from God by an holy angel to send for thee into his house, and to hear words of thee.

23 Then called he them in, and lodged [them]. And on the morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brethren from Joppa accompanied him.

24 And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends.

25 And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped [him].

26 But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.

27 And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.

28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation;
but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

29 Therefore came I [unto you] without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?

30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me
in bright clothing,

31 And said, Cornelius, thy prayer is heard, and thine alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.

32 Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of [one] Simon a tanner by the sea side: who,
when he cometh, shall speak unto thee.

33 Immediately therefore I sent to thee; and thou hast well done that thou art come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all
things that are commanded thee of God.

34 Then Peter opened [his] mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:

35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

36 The word which [God] sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)

37 That word, [I say], ye know, which was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;

38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of
the devil; for God was with him.

39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:

40 Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly;

41 Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before of God, [even] to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.

43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.

45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the
gift of the Holy Ghost.

46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,

47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?

48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.

1 AND the apostles and brethren that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.

2 And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they that were of the circumcision contended with him,

3 Saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised, and didst eat with them.

4 But Peter rehearsed [the matter] from the beginning, and expounded [it] by order unto them, saying,

5 I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by
four corners; and it came even to me:

6 Upon the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and saw fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and
fowls of the air.

7 And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat.

8 But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth.

9 But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God hath cleansed, [that] call not thou common.

10 And this was done three times: and all were drawn up again into heaven.

11 And, behold, immediately there were three men already come unto the house where I was, sent from Caesarea unto me.

12 And the Spirit bade me go with them, nothing doubting. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered into the man's house:

13 And he shewed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname
is Peter;

14 Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved.

15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning.

16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.

17 Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as [he did] unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God?

18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.

19 Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch,
preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only.

20 And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they were come to Antioch, spake unto the Grecians, preaching the Lord Jesus.

21 And the hand of the Lord was with them: and a great number believed, and turned unto the Lord.

22 Then tidings of these things came unto the ears of the church which was in Jerusalem: and they sent forth Barnabas, that he should go as far as
Antioch.

24 For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord.

25 Then departed Barnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul:

26 And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church,
and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.

27 And in these days came prophets from Jerusalem unto Antioch.

28 And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by the Spirit that there should be great dearth throughout all the world: which
came to pass in the days of Claudius Caesar.

29 Then the disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief unto the brethren which dwelt in Judaea:

30 Which also they did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.

Chapter 12

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 NOW about that time Herod the king stretched forth [his] hands to vex certain of the church.

2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.

3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)

4 And when he had apprehended him, he put [him] in prison, and delivered [him] to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter
to bring him forth to the people.

5 Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.

6 And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers
before the door kept the prison.

7 And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon [him], and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying,
Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from [his] hands.

8 And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And so he did. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow
me.

9 And he went out, and followed him; and wist not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision.

10 When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own
accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him.

11 And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of
Herod, and [from] all the expectation of the people of the Jews.

12 And when he had considered [the thing], he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were
gathered together praying.

13 And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken, named Rhoda.

14 And when she knew Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate.

15 And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.

16 But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened [the door], and saw him, they were astonished.

17 But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said,
Go shew these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.

18 Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.

19 And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that [they] should be put to death. And he
went down from Judaea to Caesarea, and [there] abode.

20 And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king's
chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king's [country].

21 And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them.

22 And the people gave a shout, [saying, It is] the voice of a god, and not of a man.

23 And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.

24 But the word of God grew and multiplied.

25 And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled [their] ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.

Chapter 13

1 NOW there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of
Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

2 As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.

3 And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid [their] hands on them, they sent [them] away.

4 So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.

5 And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to [their] minister.

6 And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name [was] Barjesus:

7 Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.

8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.

9 Then Saul, (who also [is called] Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him,

10 And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, [thou] child of the devil, [thou] enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right
ways of the Lord?

11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord [is] upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him
a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.

12 Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.

13 Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.

14 But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.

15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, [Ye] men [and] brethren, if ye have any
word of exhortation for the people, say on.

16 Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with [his] hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.

17 The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an high arm
brought he them out of it.

18 And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness.

19 And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.

20 And after that he gave [unto them] judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.

21 And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.

21 And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.

22 And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the
[son] of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will.

23 Of this man's seed hath God according to [his] promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:

24 When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

25 And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not [he]. But, behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of [his] feet
I am not worthy to loose.

26 Men [and] brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.

27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath
day, they have fulfilled [them] in condemning [him].

28 And though they found no cause of death [in him], yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.

29 And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took [him] down from the tree, and laid [him] in a sepulchre.

30 But God raised him from the dead:

31 And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.

32 And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,

33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son,
this day have I begotten thee.

34 And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, [now] no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure
mercies of David.

35 Wherefore he saith also in another [psalm], Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

36 For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:

37 But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.

38 Be it known unto you therefore, men [and] brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:

39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.

40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;

41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it
unto you.

42 And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.

43 Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them,
persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.

44 And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.

45 But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and
blaspheming.

46 Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing ye put it
from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.

47 For so hath the Lord commanded us, [saying], I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the
earth.

48 And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.

49 And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.

50 But the Jews stirred up the devout and honourable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and

1 AND it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake, that a great multitude both of the Jews
and also of the Greeks believed.

2 But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brethren.

3 Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to
be done by their hands.

4 But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

5 And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use [them] despitefully, and to stone them,

6 They were ware of [it], and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lieth round about:

7 And there they preached the gospel.

8 And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked:

9 The same heard Paul speak: who stedfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,

10 Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.

11 And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the
likeness of men.

12 And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.

13 Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.

14 [Which] when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard [of], they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,

15 And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities
unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein:

16 Who in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.

17 Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with
food and gladness.

18 And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.

19 And there came thither [certain] Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and, having stoned Paul, drew [him] out of the city,
supposing he had been dead.

20 Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

21 And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and [to] Iconium, and Antioch,

22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, [and] exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the
kingdom of God.

23 And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they
believed.

24 And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.

25 And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:

1 AND certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, [and said], Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot
be saved.

2 When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other
of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.

3 And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they
caused great joy unto all the brethren.

4 And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and [of] the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God
had done with them.

5 But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command [them] to
keep the law of Moses.

6 And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter.

7 And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men [and] brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made
choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.

8 And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as [he did] unto us;

9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.

10 Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.

12 Then all the multitude kept silence, and gave audience to Barnabas and Paul, declaring what miracles and wonders God had wrought among the
Gentiles by them.

13 And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men [and] brethren, hearken unto me:

14 Simeon hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.

15 And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,

16 After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it
up:

17 That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.

18 Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world.

19 Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God:

20 But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and [from] fornication, and [from] things strangled, and [from] blood.

21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.

22 Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas;
[namely], Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:

23 And they wrote [letters] by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren [send] greeting unto the brethren which are of the

23 And they wrote [letters] by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brethren [send] greeting unto the brethren which are of the
Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia:

24 Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, [Ye must] be
circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no [such] commandment:

25 It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

26 Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

27 We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell [you] the same things by mouth.

28 For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;

29 That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves,
ye shall do well. Fare ye well.

30 So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle:

31 [Which] when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation.

32 And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed [them].

33 And after they had tarried [there] a space, they were let go in peace from the brethren unto the apostles.

34 Notwithstanding it pleased Silas to abide there still.

35 Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.

36 And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord,
[and see] how they do.

37 And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark.

38 But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.

39 And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed asunder one from the other: and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed unto
Cyprus;

40 And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of God.

41 And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.

1 THEN came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess,
and believed; but his father [was] a Greek:

2 Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium.

3 Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that
his father was a Greek.

4 And as they went through the cities, they delivered them the decrees for to keep, that were ordained of the apostles and elders which were at
Jerusalem.

5 And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in number daily.

6 Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia,

7 After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not.

8 And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas.

9 And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.

10 And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to
preach the gospel unto them.

11 Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next [day] to Neapolis;

12 And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia, [and] a colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days.

13 And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women
which resorted [thither].

14 And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard [us]: whose heart the Lord opened,
that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul.

15 And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought [us], saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house,
and abide [there]. And she constrained us.

16 And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by
soothsaying:

17 The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation.

18 And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.
And he came out the same hour.

19 And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew [them] into the marketplace unto the
rulers,

20 And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,

21 And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans.

22 And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat [them].

23 And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast [them] into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely:

24 Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.

25 And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and
every one's bands were loosed.

27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself,
supposing that the prisoners had been fled.

28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.

29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,

30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?

31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.

33 And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed [their] stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.

34 And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.

35 And when it was day, the magistrates sent the serjeants, saying, Let those men go.

36 And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore depart, and go in peace.

37 But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast [us] into prison; and now do they thrust us out
privily? nay verily; but let them come themselves and fetch us out.

38 And the serjeants told these words unto the magistrates: and they feared, when they heard that they were Romans.

39 And they came and besought them, and brought [them] out, and desired [them] to depart out of the city.

1 NOW when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews:

2 And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures,

3 Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ.

4 And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas; and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few.

5 But the Jews which believed not, moved with envy, took unto them certain lewd fellows of the baser sort, and gathered a company, and set all the
city on an uproar, and assaulted the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people.

6 And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the rulers of the city, crying, These that have turned the world upside
down are come hither also;

7 Whom Jason hath received: and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, [one] Jesus.

8 And they troubled the people and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things.

9 And when they had taken security of Jason, and of the other, they let them go.

10 And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming [thither] went into the synagogue of the Jews.

11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily,
whether those things were so.

12 Therefore many of them believed; also of honourable women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few.

13 But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was preached of Paul at Berea, they came thither also, and stirred up the
people.

14 And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul to go as it were to the sea: but Silas and Timotheus abode there still.

15 And they that conducted Paul brought him unto Athens: and receiving a commandment unto Silas and Timotheus for to come to him with all
speed, they departed.

16 Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry.

17 Therefore disputed he in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him.

18 Then certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoicks, encountered him. And some said, What will this babbler say? other some, He
seemeth to be a setter forth of strange gods: because he preached unto them Jesus, and the resurrection.

19 And they took him, and brought him unto Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new doctrine, whereof thou speakest, [is]?

20 For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears: we would know therefore what these things mean.

21 (For all the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.)

22 Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, [Ye] men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious.

23 For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly
worship, him declare I unto you.

24 God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;

25 Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things;

26 And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the
bounds of their habitation;

27 That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:

28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.

29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and
man's device.

30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by [that] man whom he hath ordained; [whereof] he hath
given assurance unto all [men], in that he hath raised him from the dead.

32 And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this [matter].

33 So Paul departed from among them.

34 Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed: among the which [was] Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others
with them.

Chapter 18

1 AFTER these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;

2 And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all
Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them.

3 And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.

4 And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.

5 And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews [that] Jesus [was] Christ.

6 And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook [his] raiment, and said unto them, Your blood [be] upon your own heads; I [am]
clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.

7 And he departed thence, and entered into a certain [man's] house, named Justus, [one] that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the
synagogue.

8 And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were
baptized.

9 Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:

10 For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city.

11 And he continued [there] a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

12 And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,

13 Saying, This [fellow] persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.

14 And when Paul was now about to open [his] mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O [ye] Jews, reason
would that I should bear with you:

15 But if it be a question of words and names, and [of] your law, look ye [to it]; for I will be no judge of such [matters].

16 And he drave them from the judgment seat.

17 Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat [him] before the judgment seat. And Gallio cared for none of those
things.

18 And Paul [after this] tarried [there] yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, and with him Priscilla
and Aquila; having shorn [his] head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.

19 And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.

20 When they

21 But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he
sailed from Ephesus.
19 And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.

20 When they desired [him] to tarry longer time with them, he consented not;

21 But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he
sailed from Ephesus.

22 And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.

23 And after he had spent some time [there], he departed, and went over [all] the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the
disciples.

24 And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, [and] mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.

25 This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing
only the baptism of John.

26 And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto [them], and expounded unto
him the way of God more perfectly.

27 And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he was come, helped them
much which had believed through grace:

28 For he mightily convinced the Jews, [and that] publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.

Chapter 19

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 AND it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain
disciples,

2 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be
any Holy Ghost.

3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism.

4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come
after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.

5 When they heard [this], they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

6 And when Paul had laid [his] hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.

7 And all the men were about twelve.

8 And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of
God.

9 But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the
disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.

10 And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.

11 And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:

12 So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of
them.

13 Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We
adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.

14 And there were seven sons of [one] Sceva, a Jew, [and] chief of the priests, which did so.

15 And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?

16 And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house
naked and wounded.

17 And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

18 And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds.

19 Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all [men]: and they counted the price of them,
and found [it] fifty thousand [pieces] of silver.

20 So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.

21 After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I
have been there, I must also see Rome.

22 So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.

23 And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.

24 For a certain [man] named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen;

25 Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth.

26 Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people,
saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands:

27 So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her
magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.

28 And when they heard [these sayings], they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great [is] Diana of the Ephesians.

29 And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions in travel, they
rushed with one accord into the theatre.

30 And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.

31 And certain of the chief of Asia, which were his friends, sent unto him, desiring [him] that he would not adventure himself into the theatre.

32 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come
together.

33 And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his
defence unto the people.

34 But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great [is] Diana of the Ephesians.

35 And when the townclerk had appeased the people, he said, [Ye] men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not how that the city of the
Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of the [image] which fell down from Jupiter?

36 Seeing then that these things cannot be spoken against, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.

37 For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess.

38 Wherefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen which are with him, have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them
implead one another.

39 But if ye enquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly.

40 For we are in danger to be called in question for this day's uproar, there being no cause whereby we may give an account of this concourse.

41 And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.

and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.

5 These going before tarried for us at Troas.

6 And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came unto them to Troas in five days; where we abode seven days.

7 And upon the first [day] of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow;
and continued his speech until midnight.

8 And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where they were gathered together.

9 And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus, being fallen into a deep sleep: and as Paul was long preaching, he sunk down
with sleep, and fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead.

10 And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing [him] said, Trouble not yourselves; for his life is in him.

11 When he therefore was come up again, and had broken bread, and eaten, and talked a long while, even till break of day, so he departed.

12 And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted.

13 And we went before to ship, and sailed unto Assos, there intending to take in Paul: for so had he appointed, minding himself to go afoot.

14 And when he met with us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene.

15 And we sailed thence, and came the next [day] over against Chios; and the next [day] we arrived at Samos, and tarried at Trogyllium; and the
next [day] we came to Miletus.

16 For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, because he would not spend the time in Asia: for he hasted, if it were possible for him, to be at
Jerusalem the day of Pentecost.

17 And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the church.

18 And when they were come to him, he said unto them, Ye know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you
at all seasons,

19 Serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews:

20 [And] how I kept back nothing that was profitable [unto you], but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house,

21 Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

22 And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:

23 Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.

24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I
have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

25 And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.

26 Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I [am] pure from the blood of all [men].

27 For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.

28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God,
which he hath purchased with his own blood.

29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.

31 Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.

38 Sorrowing most of all for the words which he spake, that they should see his face no more. And they accompanied him unto the ship.

1 AND it came to pass, that after we were gotten from them, and had launched, we came with a straight course unto Coos, and the [day] following
unto Rhodes, and from thence unto Patara:

2 And finding a ship sailing over unto Phenicia, we went aboard, and set forth.

3 Now when we had discovered Cyprus, we left it on the left hand, and sailed into Syria, and landed at Tyre: for there the ship was to unlade her
burden.

4 And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.

5 And when we had accomplished those days, we departed and went our way; and they all brought us on our way, with wives and children, till [we
were] out of the city: and we kneeled down on the shore, and prayed.

6 And when we had taken our leave one of another, we took ship; and they returned home again.

7 And when we had finished [our] course from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, and saluted the brethren, and abode with them one day.

8 And the next [day] we that were of Paul's company departed, and came unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist,
which was [one] of the seven; and abode with him.

9 And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy.

10 And as we tarried [there] many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus.

11 And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews
at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver [him] into the hands of the Gentiles.

12 And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.

13 Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the
name of the Lord Jesus.

14 And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be done.

15 And after those days we took up our carriages, and went up to Jerusalem.

16 There went with us also [certain] of the disciples of Caesarea, and brought with them one Mnason of Cyprus, an old disciple, with whom we
should lodge.

17 And when we were come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.

18 And the [day] following Paul went in with us unto James; and all the elders were present.

19 And when he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry.

20 And when they heard [it], they glorified the Lord, and said unto him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are which believe;
and they are all zealous of the law:

21 And they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to

circumcise  [their] children, neither to walk after the customs.

22 What is it therefore? the multitude must needs come together: for they will hear that thou art come.
and they are all zealous of the law:

21 And they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to
circumcise [their] children, neither to walk after the customs.

22 What is it therefore? the multitude must needs come together: for they will hear that thou art come.

23 Do therefore this that we say to thee: We have four men which have a vow on them;

24 Them take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave [their] heads: and all may know that those things,
whereof they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but [that] thou thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law.

25 As touching the Gentiles which believe, we have written [and] concluded that they observe no such thing, save only that they keep themselves
from [things] offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication.

26 Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of
purification, until that an offering should be offered for every one of them.

27 And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews which were of Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid
hands on him,

28 Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This is the man, that teacheth all [men] every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further
brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place.

29 (For they had seen before with him in the city Trophimus an Ephesian, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)

30 And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and forthwith the doors were shut.

31 And as they went about to kill him, tidings came unto the chief captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.

32 Who immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down unto them: and when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, they left beating
of Paul.

33 Then the chief captain came near, and took him, and commanded [him] to be bound with two chains; and demanded who he was, and what he
had done.

34 And some cried one thing, some another, among the multitude: and when he could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to
be carried into the castle.

35 And when he came upon the stairs, so it was, that he was borne of the soldiers for the violence of the people.

36 For the multitude of the people followed after, crying, Away with him.

37 And as Paul was to be led into the castle, he said unto the chief captain, May I speak unto thee? Who said, Canst thou speak Greek?

38 Art not thou that Egyptian, which before these days madest an uproar, and leddest out into the wilderness four thousand men that were
murderers?

39 But Paul said, I am a man [which am] a Jew of Tarsus, [a city] in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city: and, I beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto the
people.

40 And when he had given him licence, Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned with the hand unto the people. And when there was made a great
silence, he spake unto [them] in the Hebrew tongue, saying,

1 MEN, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence [which I make] now unto you.

2 (And when they heard that he spake in the Hebrew tongue to them, they kept the more silence: and he saith,)

3 I am verily a man [which am] a Jew, born in Tarsus, [a city] in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, [and] taught according to
the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.

4 And I persecuted this way unto the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.

5 As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to
Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished.

5 As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to
Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished.

6 And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light
round about me.

7 And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

8 And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.

9 And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me.

10 And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said unto me, Arise, and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things which are
appointed for thee to do.

11 And when I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of them that were with me, I came into Damascus.

12 And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews which dwelt [there],

13 Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him.

14 And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his
mouth.

15 For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard.

16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

17 And it came to pass, that, when I was come again to Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance;

18 And saw him saying unto me, Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.

19 And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee:

20 And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment of them that
slew him.

21 And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles.

22 And they gave him audience unto this word, and [then] lifted up their voices, and said, Away with such a [fellow] from the earth: for it is not fit
that he should live.

23 And as they cried out, and cast off [their] clothes, and threw dust into the air,

24 The chief captain commanded him to be brought into the castle, and bade that he should be examined by scourging; that he might know
wherefore they cried so against him.

25 And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said unto the centurion that stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and
uncondemned?

26 When the centurion heard [that], he went and told the chief captain, saying, Take heed what thou doest: for this man is a Roman.

27 Then the chief captain came, and said unto him, Tell me, art thou a Roman? He said, Yea.

28 And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this freedom. And Paul said, But I was [free] born.

29 Then straightway they departed from him which should have examined him: and the chief captain also was afraid, after he knew that he was a
Roman, and because he had bound him.

30 On the morrow, because he would have known the certainty wherefore he was accused of the Jews, he loosed him from [his] bands, and
commanded the chief priests and all their council to appear, and brought Paul down, and set him before them.

2 And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him to smite him on the mouth.

3 Then said Paul unto him, God shall smite thee, [thou] whited wall: for sittest thou to judge me after the law, and commandest me to be smitten
contrary to the law?

4 And they that stood by said, Revilest thou God's high priest?

5 Then said Paul, I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people.

6 But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men [and] brethren, I am a
Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.

7 And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees: and the multitude was divided.

8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both.

9 And there arose a great cry: and the scribes [that were] of the Pharisees' part arose, and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or
an angel hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God.

10 And when there arose a great dissension, the chief captain, fearing lest Paul should have been pulled in pieces of them, commanded the soldiers to
go down, and to take him by force from among them, and to bring [him] into the castle.

11 And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear
witness also at Rome.

12 And when it was day, certain of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till
they had killed Paul.

13 And they were more than forty which had made this conspiracy.

14 And they came to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have bound ourselves under a great curse, that we will eat nothing until we have slain
Paul.

15 Now therefore ye with the council signify to the chief captain that he bring him down unto you to morrow, as though ye would enquire
something more perfectly concerning him: and we, or ever he come near, are ready to kill him.

16 And when Paul's sister's son heard of their lying in wait, he went and entered into the castle, and told Paul.

17 Then Paul called one of the centurions unto [him], and said, Bring this young man unto the chief captain: for he hath a certain thing to tell him.

18 So he took him, and brought [him] to the chief captain, and said, Paul the prisoner called me unto [him], and prayed me to bring this young man
unto thee, who hath something to say unto thee.

19 Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went [with him] aside privately, and asked [him], What is that thou hast to tell me?

20 And he said, The Jews have agreed to desire thee that thou wouldest bring down Paul to morrow into the council, as though they would enquire
somewhat of him more perfectly.

21 But do not thou yield unto them: for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, which have bound themselves with an oath, that they
will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him: and now are they ready, looking for a promise from thee.

22 So the chief captain [then] let the young man depart, and charged [him, See thou] tell no man that thou hast shewed these things to me.

23 And he called unto [him] two centurions, saying, Make ready two hundred soldiers to go to Caesarea, and horsemen threescore and ten, and
spearmen two hundred, at the third hour of the night;

24 And provide [them] beasts, that they may set Paul on, and bring [him] safe unto Felix the governor.

25 And he wrote a letter after this manner:

26 Claudius Lysias unto the most excellent governor Felix [sendeth] greeting.

27 This man was taken of the Jews, and should have been killed of them: then came I with an army, and rescued him, having understood that he was
a Roman.

28 And when I would have known the cause wherefore they accused him, I brought him forth into their council:

29 Whom I perceived to be accused of questions of their law, but to have nothing laid to his charge worthy of death or of bonds.

1 AND after five days Ananias the high priest descended with the elders, and [with] a certain orator [named] Tertullus, who informed the governor
against Paul.

2 And when he was called forth, Tertullus began to accuse [him], saying, Seeing that by thee we enjoy great quietness, and that very worthy deeds
are done unto this nation by thy providence,

3 We accept [it] always, and in all places, most noble Felix, with all thankfulness.

4 Notwithstanding, that I be not further tedious unto thee, I pray thee that thou wouldest hear us of thy clemency a few words.

5 For we have found this man [a] pestilent [fellow], and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of
the Nazarenes:

6 Who also hath gone about to profane the temple: whom we took, and would have judged according to our law.

7 But the chief captain Lysias came [upon us], and with great violence took [him] away out of our hands,

8 Commanding his accusers to come unto thee: by examining of whom thyself mayest take knowledge of all these things, whereof we accuse him.

9 And the Jews also assented, saying that these things were so.

10 Then Paul, after that the governor had beckoned unto him to speak, answered, Forasmuch as I know that thou hast been of many years a judge
unto this nation, I do the more cheerfully answer for myself:

11 Because that thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem for to worship.

12 And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, neither raising up the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city:

13 Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me.

14 But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in
the law and in the prophets:

15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.

16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and [toward] men.

17 Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings.

18 Whereupon certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, neither with multitude, nor with tumult.

19 Who ought to have been here before thee, and object, if they had ought against me.

20 Or else let these same [here] say, if they have found any evil doing in me, while I stood before the council,

21 Except it be for this one voice, that I cried standing among them, Touching the resurrection of the dead I am called in question by you this day.

22 And when Felix heard these things, having more perfect knowledge of [that] way, he deferred them, and said, When Lysias the chief captain shall
come down, I will know the uttermost of your matter.

with him.

1 NOW when Festus was come into the province, after three days he ascended from Caesarea to Jerusalem.

2 Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and besought him,

3 And desired favour against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying wait in the way to kill him.

4 But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Caesarea, and that he himself would depart shortly [thither].

5 Let them therefore, said he, which among you are able, go down with [me], and accuse this man, if there be any wickedness in him.

6 And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down unto Caesarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat
commanded Paul to be brought.

7 And when he was come, the Jews which came down from Jerusalem stood round about, and laid many and grievous complaints against Paul,
which they could not prove.

8 While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, neither against the temple, nor yet against Caesar, have I offended any thing at
all.

9 But Festus, willing to do the Jews a pleasure, answered Paul, and said, Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me?

10 Then said Paul, I stand at Caesar's judgment seat, where I ought to be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou very well knowest.

11 For if I be an offender, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there be none of these things whereof these accuse
me, no man may deliver me unto them. I appeal unto Caesar.

12 Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast thou appealed unto Caesar? unto Caesar shalt thou go.

13 And after certain days king Agrippa and Bernice came unto Caesarea to salute Festus.

14 And when they had been there many days, Festus declared Paul's cause unto the king, saying, There is a certain man left in bonds by Felix:

15 About whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed [me], desiring [to have] judgment against him.

16 To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any man to die, before that he which is accused have the accusers face to face,
and have licence to answer for himself concerning the crime laid against him.

17 Therefore, when they were come hither, without any delay on the morrow I sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought
forth.

18 Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought none accusation of such things as I supposed:

19 But had certain questions against him of their own superstition, and of one Jesus, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.

20 And because I doubted of such manner of questions, I asked [him] whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these matters.

21 But when Paul had appealed to be reserved unto the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I might send him to Caesar.

22 Then Agrippa said unto Festus, I would also hear the man myself. To morrow, said he, thou shalt hear him.

him.

1 THEN Agrippa said unto Paul, Thou art permitted to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and answered for himself:

2 I think myself happy, king Agrippa, because I shall answer for myself this day before thee touching all the things whereof I am accused of the Jews:

3 Especially [because I know] thee to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently.

4 My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among mine own nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews;

5 Which knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after the most straitest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

6 And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God unto our fathers:

7 Unto which [promise] our twelve tribes, instantly serving [God] day and night, hope to come. For which hope's sake, king Agrippa, I am accused of
the Jews.

8 Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?

9 I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

10 Which thing I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when
they were put to death, I gave my voice against [them].

11 And I punished them oft in every synagogue, and compelled [them] to blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted [them]
even unto strange cities.

12 Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests,

13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed
with me.

14 And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou
me? [it is] hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.

16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which
thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;

17 Delivering thee from the people, and [from] the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee,

18 To open their eyes, [and] to turn [them] from darkness to light, and [from] the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins,
and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.

19 Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision:

20 But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and [then] to the Gentiles, that they should
repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.

21 For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to kill [me].

22 Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which
the prophets and Moses did say should come:
repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.

21 For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to kill [me].

22 Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which
the prophets and Moses did say should come:

23 That Christ should suffer, [and] that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the
Gentiles.

24 And as he thus spake for himself, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, thou art beside thyself; much learning doth make thee mad.

25 But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus; but speak forth the words of truth and soberness.

26 For the king knoweth of these things, before whom also I speak freely: for I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him; for this
thing was not done in a corner.

27 King Agrippa, believest thou the prophets? I know that thou believest.

28 Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.

29 And Paul said, I would to God, that not only thou, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these
bonds.

30 And when he had thus spoken, the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them:

31 And when they were gone aside, they talked between themselves, saying, This man doeth nothing worthy of death or of bonds.

32 Then said Agrippa unto Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed unto Caesar.

1 AND when it was determined that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners unto [one] named Julius, a centurion of
Augustus' band.

2 And entering into a ship of Adramyttium, we launched, meaning to sail by the coasts of Asia; [one] Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica,
being with us.

3 And the next [day] we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously entreated Paul, and gave [him] liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself.

4 And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.

5 And when we had sailed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, [a city] of Lycia.

6 And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy; and he put us therein.

7 And when we had sailed slowly many days, and scarce were come over against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over
against Salmone;

8 And, hardly passing it, came unto a place which is called The fair havens; nigh whereunto was the city [of] Lasea.

9 Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished [them],

10 And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.

11 Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul.

12 And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to depart thence also, if by any means they might attain to
Phenice, [and there] to winter; [which is] an haven of Crete, and lieth toward the south west and north west.

13 And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained [their] purpose, loosing [thence], they sailed close by Crete.

14 But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon.

15 And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up into the wind, we let [her] drive.

16 And running under a certain island which is called Clauda, we had much work to come by the boat:

17 Which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, strake sail, and so

were driven.

18 And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next [day] they lightened the ship;
16 And running under a certain island which is called Clauda, we had much work to come by the boat:

17 Which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, strake sail, and so
were driven.

18 And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next [day] they lightened the ship;

19 And the third [day] we cast out with our own hands the tackling of the ship.

20 And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on [us], all hope that we should be saved was then taken away.

21 But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from
Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss.

22 And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of [any man's] life among you, but of the ship.

23 For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,

24 Saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.

25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.

26 Howbeit we must be cast upon a certain island.

27 But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the shipmen deemed that they drew near to
some country;

28 And sounded, and found [it] twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again, and found [it] fifteen fathoms.

29 Then fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.

30 And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under colour as though they would have cast
anchors out of the foreship,

31 Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved.

32 Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.

33 And while the day was coming on, Paul besought [them] all to take meat, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye have tarried and
continued fasting, having taken nothing.

34 Wherefore I pray you to take [some] meat: for this is for your health: for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you.

35 And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in presence of them all: and when he had broken [it], he began to eat.

36 Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took [some] meat.

37 And we were in all in the ship two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.

38 And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.

39 And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discovered a certain creek with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were
possible, to thrust in the ship.

40 And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed [themselves] unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoised up the mainsail to
the wind, and made toward shore.

41 And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmoveable, but the hinder
part was broken with the violence of the waves.

42 And the soldiers' counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out, and escape.

43 But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from [their] purpose; and commanded that they which could swim should cast [themselves] first
[into the sea], and get to land:

44 And the rest, some on boards, and some on [broken pieces] of the ship. And so it came to pass, that they escaped all safe to land.

1 AND when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita.

2 And the barbarous people shewed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and because
of the cold.

3 And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid [them] on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.

4 And when the barbarians saw the [venomous] beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom,
though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.

5 And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.

6 Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come
to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.

7 In the same quarters were possessions of the chief man of the island, whose name was Publius; who received us, and lodged us three days
courteously.

8 And it came to pass, that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and of a bloody flux: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on
him, and healed him.

9 So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island, came, and were healed:

10 Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they laded [us] with such things as were necessary.

11 And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.

12 And landing at Syracuse, we tarried [there] three days.

13 And from thence we fetched a compass, and came to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli:

14 Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome.

15 And from thence, when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii forum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he
thanked God, and took courage.

16 And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered to dwell by himself with a
soldier that kept him.

17 And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men
[and] brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the
hands of the Romans.

18 Who, when they had examined me, would have let [me] go, because there was no cause of death in me.

19 But when the Jews spake against [it], I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I had ought to accuse my nation of.

20 For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see [you], and to speak with [you]: because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.

21 And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judaea concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came shewed or spake any
harm of thee.

22 But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.

23 And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into [his] lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God,
persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and [out of] the prophets, from morning till evening.

24 And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.

25 And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the
prophet unto our fathers,

26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:

27 For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with [their] eyes,
and hear with [their] ears, and understand with [their] heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and [that] they will hear it.

29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.

31 Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.


Romans
Chapter 1

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 PAUL, a servant of Jesus Christ, called [to be] an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,

2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)

3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;

4 And declared [to be] the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:

6 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:

7 To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called [to be] saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.

9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;

10 Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.

11 For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established;

12 That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.

13 Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit
among you also, even as among other Gentiles.

14 I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.

15 So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the
Greek.

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed [it] unto them.

20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, [even] his eternal
power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their
foolish heart was darkened.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping
things.

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is
unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not
convenient;

29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity;
whisperers,

30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them
that do them.

1 THEREFORE thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou
that judgest doest the same things.

2 But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

3 And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of
God;

6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

11 For there is no respect of persons with God.

12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;

13 (For not the hearers of the law [are] just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:

15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and [their] thoughts the mean while accusing or else
excusing one another;)

27 And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law?

28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither [is that] circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

29 But he [is] a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the spirit, [and] not in the letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but
of God.

1 WHAT advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit [is there] of circumcision?

2 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.

3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?

4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when
thou art judged.

5 But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? [Is] God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)

6 God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?

7 For if the truth of God hath more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?

8 And not [rather], (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.

9 What then? are we better [than they]? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;

10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

13 Their throat [is] an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps [is] under their lips:

14 Whose mouth [is] full of cursing and bitterness:

15 Their feet [are] swift to shed blood:

16 Destruction and misery [are] in their ways:

17 And the way of peace have they not known:

18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.

19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world
may become guilty before God.

20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law [is] the knowledge of sin.

21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;

3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.

4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.

5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

6 Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,

7 [Saying], Blessed [are] they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.

8 Blessed [is] the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

9 [Cometh] this blessedness then upon the circumcision [only], or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for
righteousness.

10 How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.

11 And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which [he had yet] being uncircumcised: that he might be the
father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:

12 And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham,
which [he had] being [yet] uncircumcised.

13 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, [was] not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of
faith.

14 For if they which are of the law [be] heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:

15 Because the law worketh wrath: for where no law is, [there is] no transgression.

16 Therefore [it is] of faith, that [it might be] by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to
that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,

17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, [even] God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth
those things which be not as though they were.

18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.

19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of
Sara's womb:

19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of
Sara's womb:

20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;

21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

22 And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.

23 Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him;

24 But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;

25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.

Chapter 5

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 THEREFORE being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

3 And not only [so], but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.

8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

11 And not only [so], but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.

12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.

14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the
figure of him that was to come.

15 But not as the offence, so also [is] the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace,
[which is] by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

16 And not as [it was] by one that sinned, [so is] the gift: for the judgment [was] by one to condemnation, but the free gift [is] of many offences unto
justification.

17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in
life by one, Jesus Christ.)

18 Therefore as by the offence of one [judgment came] upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one [the free gift came] upon
all men unto justification of life.

19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 WHAT shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also
should walk in newness of life.

5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also [in the likeness] of [his] resurrection:

6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [him], that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.

8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:

9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.

10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.

11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.

13 Neither yield ye your members [as] instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead,
and your members [as] instruments of righteousness unto God.

14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.

16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience
unto righteousness?

17 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.

18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.

19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to
iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.

20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.

21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things [is] death.

22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.

23 For the wages of sin [is] death; but the gift of God [is] eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

1 KNOW ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?

2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to [her] husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the
law of [her] husband.

3 So then if, while [her] husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from
that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.

4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, [even] to him who is
raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.

5 For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.

7 What shall we say then? [Is] the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said,
Thou shalt not covet.

8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin [was] dead.

9 For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.

10 And the commandment, which [was ordained] to life, I found [to be] unto death.

11 For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew [me].

12 Wherefore the law [is] holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.

13 Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that
sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.

14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.

15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.

16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that [it is] good.

17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but [how] to perform that which is good I find
not.

19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.

20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.

22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:

23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my
members.

24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

1 [There is] therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin,
condemned sin in the flesh:

4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

6 For to be carnally minded [is] death; but to be spiritually minded [is] life and peace.

7 Because the carnal mind [is] enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of
his.

10 And if Christ [be] in you, the body [is] dead because of sin; but the Spirit [is] life because of righteousness.

10 And if Christ [be] in you, the body [is] dead because of sin; but the Spirit [is] life because of righteousness.

11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal
bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.

13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.

14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with [him], that we may be also glorified together.

18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected [the same] in hope,

21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.

23 And not only [they], but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption,
[to wit], the redemption of our body.

24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?

25 But if we hope for that we see not, [then] do we with patience wait for [it].

26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for
us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what [is] the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to [the will of]
God.

28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose.

29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate [to be] conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many
brethren.

30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also
glorified.

31 What shall we then say to these things? If God [be] for us, who [can be] against us?

32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? [It is] God that justifieth.

34 Who [is] he that condemneth? [It is] Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh
intercession for us.

35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.

37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.

38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

1 I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,

2 That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.

3 For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:

4 Who are Israelites; to whom [pertaineth] the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service [of God], and the
promises;

5 Whose [are] the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ [came], who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.

6 Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they [are] not all Israel, which are of Israel:

7 Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, [are they] all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.

8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these [are] not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.

9 For this [is] the word of promise, At this time will I come, and Sara shall have a son.

10 And not only [this]; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, [even] by our father Isaac;

11 (For [the children] being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of
works, but of him that calleth;)

12 It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.

13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

14 What shall we say then? [Is there] unrighteousness with God? God forbid.

15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

16 So then [it is] not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.

17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name
might be declared throughout all the earth.

18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will [have mercy], and whom he will he hardeneth.

19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?

20 Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed [it], Why hast thou made me thus?

21 Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?

22 [What] if God, willing to shew [his] wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to
destruction:

23 And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,

24 Even us, whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?

25 As he saith also in Osee, I will call them my people, which were not my people; and her beloved, which was not beloved.

26 And it shall come to pass, [that] in the place where it was said unto them, Ye [are] not my people; there shall they be called the children of the
living God.

27 Esaias also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 BRETHREN, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.

2 For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

3 For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the
righteousness of God.

4 For Christ [is] the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

5 For Moses describeth the righteousness which is of the law, That the man which doeth those things shall live by them.

6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down
[from above]:)

7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)

8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, [even] in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;

9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be
saved.

10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall
they hear without a preacher?

15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad
tidings of good things!

16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report?

17 So then faith [cometh] by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

18 But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.

19 But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses saith, I will provoke you to jealousy by [them that are] no people, [and] by a foolish nation I will anger
you.

20 But Esaias is very bold, and saith, I was found of them that sought me not; I was made manifest unto them that asked not after me.

21 But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.

Israel, saying,

3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, [of] the tribe of Benjamin.

2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against
Israel, saying,

3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.

4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to [the image of] Baal.

5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

6 And if by grace, then [is it] no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if [it be] of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no
more work.

7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded

8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this
day.

9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompence unto them:

10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back alway.

11 I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but [rather] through their fall salvation [is come] unto the Gentiles, for to
provoke them to jealousy.

12 Now if the fall of them [be] the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?

13 For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:

14 If by any means I may provoke to emulation [them which are] my flesh, and might save some of them.

15 For if the casting away of them [be] the reconciling of the world, what [shall] the receiving [of them be], but life from the dead?

16 For if the firstfruit [be] holy, the lump [is] also [holy]: and if the root [be] holy, so [are] the branches.

17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and
fatness of the olive tree;

18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee.

19 Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be graffed in.

20 Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:

21 For if God spared not the natural branches, [take heed] lest he also spare not thee.

22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in [his] goodness:
otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.

23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.

24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall
these, which be the natural [branches], be graffed into their own olive tree?

25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is
happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:

27 For this [is] my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

28 As concerning the gospel, [they are] enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, [they are] beloved for the fathers' sakes.

29 For the gifts and calling of God [are] without repentance.

30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:

31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.

Chapter 12

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, [which is] your
reasonable service.

2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable,
and perfect, will of God.

3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think [of himself] more highly than he ought to think; but to
think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

4 For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:

5 So we, [being] many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.

6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, [let us prophesy] according to the proportion of faith;

7 Or ministry, [let us wait] on [our] ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;

8 Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, [let him do it] with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with
cheerfulness.

9 [Let] love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

10 [Be] kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;

11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;

12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;

13 Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.

14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.

15 Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.

16 [Be] of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.

19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but [rather] give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance [is] mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.

21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister
of God, a revenger to [execute] wrath upon him that doeth evil.

5 Wherefore [ye] must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.

6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.

7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute [is due]; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.

8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if
[there be] any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love [is] the fulfilling of the law.

11 And that, knowing the time, that now [it is] high time to awake out of sleep: for now [is] our salvation nearer than when we believed.

12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.

13 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.

14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to [fulfil] the lusts [thereof].

Chapter 14

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 HIM that is weak in the faith receive ye, [but] not to doubtful disputations.

2 For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs.

3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.

4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him
stand.

5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day [alike]. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth [it] unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard [it]. He that eateth,
eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.

7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.

8 For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.

9 For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.

10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

11 For it is written, [As] I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in [his] brother's
way.

14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that [there is] nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him [it
is] unclean.

15 But if thy brother be grieved with [thy] meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of:

1 WE then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

2 Let every one of us please [his] neighbour for [his] good to edification.

3 For even Christ pleased not himself; but, as it is written, The reproaches of them that reproached thee fell on me.

4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have
hope.

5 Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus:

6 That ye may with one mind [and] one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

7 Wherefore receive ye one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.

8 Now I say that Jesus Christ was a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises [made] unto the fathers:

9 And that the Gentiles might glorify God for [his] mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the Gentiles, and sing unto thy
name.

10 And again he saith, Rejoice, ye Gentiles, with his people.

11 And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; and laud him, all ye people.

12 And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.

13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.

14 And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one
another.

15 Nevertheless, brethren, I have written the more boldly unto you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me of
God,

16 That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable,
being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.

17 I have therefore whereof I may glory through Jesus Christ in those things which pertain to God.

18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed,

19 Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully
preached the gospel of Christ.

20 Yea, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:

21 But as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand.

25 But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints.

26 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.

27 It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to
minister unto them in carnal things.

29 And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

God for me;

1 PAUL, called [to be] an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes [our] brother,

2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called [to be] saints, with all that in every place call upon the
name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

3 Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ.

4 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

5 That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and [in] all knowledge;

6 Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:

7 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:

8 Who shall also confirm you unto the end, [that ye may be] blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9 God [is] faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and [that] there be no divisions among you;
but [that] ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them [which are of the house] of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

14 I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;

15 Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name.

16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.

17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.

18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, [are called]:

27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the
things which are mighty;

28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, [yea], and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.

30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

Chapter 2

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 AND I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.

2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.

4 And my speech and my preaching [was] not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:

5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:

7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, [even] the hidden [wisdom], which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known [it], they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that
love him.

10 But God hath revealed [them] unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of
God.

12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with
spiritual.

14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are
spiritually discerned.

15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

1 AND I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, [even] as unto babes in Christ.

2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able [to bear it], neither yet now are ye able.

3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I [am] of Apollos; are ye not carnal?

5 Who then is Paul, and who [is] Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.

7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, [ye are] God's building.

10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let
every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work
of what sort it is.

14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.

15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are.

18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.

19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.

20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.

21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;

22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;

23 And ye are Christ's; and Christ [is] God's.

Chapter 4

1 LET a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.

3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.

4 For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest
the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.

6 And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and [to] Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think [of men]
above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.

7 For who maketh thee to differ [from another]? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive [it], why dost thou glory, as

9 For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and
to men.

10 We [are] fools for Christ's sake, but ye [are] wise in Christ; we [are] weak, but ye [are] strong; ye [are] honourable, but we [are] despised.

11 Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace;

12 And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:

13 Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, [and are] the offscouring of all things unto this day.

14 I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn [you].

15 For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet [have ye] not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.

16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.

17 For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my
ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.

18 Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.

19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.

20 For the kingdom of God [is] not in word, but in power.

21 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and [in] the spirit of meekness?

1 IT is reported commonly [that there is] fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one
should have his father's wife.

2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.

3 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, [concerning] him that hath so done this deed,

4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

6 Your glorying [is] not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?

7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:

8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened [bread] of sincerity
and truth.

9 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:

10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the
world.

11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or
a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?

13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 DARE any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?

2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?

4 If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.

5 I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?

6 But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.

7 Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather
[suffer yourselves to] be defrauded?

8 Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that [your] brethren.

9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor
effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our
God.

12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body [is] not for fornication, but for the Lord; and
the Lord for the body.

14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.

15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make [them] the members of an harlot?
God forbid.

16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost [which is] in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 NOW concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: [It is] good for a man not to touch a woman.

2 Nevertheless, [to avoid] fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.

4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.

5 Defraud ye not one the other, except [it be] with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again,
that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.

6 But I speak this by permission, [and] not of commandment.

7 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.

8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.

9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.

10 And unto the married I command, [yet] not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from [her] husband:

11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to [her] husband: and let not the husband put away [his] wife.
9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.

10 And unto the married I command, [yet] not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from [her] husband:

11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to [her] husband: and let not the husband put away [his] wife.

12 But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.

13 And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.

14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but
now are they holy.

15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such [cases]: but God hath called us to peace.

16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save [thy] husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save [thy] wife?

17 But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches.

18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.

19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.

20 Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.

21 Art thou called [being] a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use [it] rather.

22 For he that is called in the Lord, [being] a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, [being] free, is Christ's servant.

23 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.

24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.

25 Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.

26 I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, [I say], that [it is] good for a man so to be.

27 Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.

28 But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I
spare you.

29 But this I say, brethren, the time [is] short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;

30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;

31 And they that use this world, as not abusing [it]: for the fashion of this world passeth away.

32 But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:

33 But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please [his] wife.

34 There is difference [also] between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body
and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please [her] husband.

35 And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye may attend upon the Lord
without distraction.

36 But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of [her] age, and need so require, let him do what
he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.

37 Nevertheless, he that standeth stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he
will keep his virgin, doeth well.

38 So then he that giveth [her] in marriage doeth well; but he that giveth [her] not in marriage doeth better.

39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in
the Lord.

1 NOW as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.

2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.

3 But if any man love God, the same is known of him.

4 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol [is] nothing in the world, and that
[there is] none other God but one.

5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)

6 But to us [there is but] one God, the Father, of whom [are] all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom [are] all things, and we
by him.

7 Howbeit [there is] not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat [it] as a thing offered unto an idol; and
their conscience being weak is defiled.

8 But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.

9 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.

10 For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat
those things which are offered to idols;

11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?

12 But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.

13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

6 Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear working?

7 Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth
not of the milk of the flock?

13 Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live [of the things] of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with
the altar?

14 Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.

15 But I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for [it were] better for me to die, than
that any man should make my glorying void.

16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation [of the gospel] is committed unto me.

18 What is my reward then? [Verily] that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in
the gospel.

19 For though I be free from all [men], yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.

20 And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are
under the law;

21 To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without
law.

22 To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all [men], that I might by all means save some.

23 And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with [you].

24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they [do it] to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.

26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:

27 But I keep under my body, and bring [it] into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

1 MOREOVER, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;

2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat;

4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

7 Neither be ye idolaters, as [were] some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.

10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.

11 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.

13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God [is] faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are
able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear [it].

14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.

14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.

15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.

16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the
body of Christ?

17 For we [being] many are one bread, [and] one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.

18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?

19 What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?

20 But I [say], that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with
devils.

21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.

22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?

23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.

24 Let no man seek his own, but every man another's [wealth].

25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, [that] eat, asking no question for conscience sake:

26 For the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.

27 If any of them that believe not bid you [to a feast], and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience
sake.

28 But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth [is] the
Lord's, and the fulness thereof:

29 Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another [man's] conscience?

30 For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?

31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.

32 Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:

33 Even as I please all [men] in all [things], not seeking mine own profit, but the [profit] of many, that they may be saved.

1 BE ye followers of me, even as I also [am] of Christ.

2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered [them] to you.

3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman [is] the man; and the head of Christ [is] God.

4 Every man praying or prophesying, having [his] head covered, dishonoureth his head.

5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with [her] head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven.

6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

7 For a man indeed ought not to cover [his] head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.

8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.

9 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.

10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on [her] head because of the angels.

11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.

12 For as the woman [is] of the man, even so [is] the man also by the woman; but all things of God.

13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?
11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.

12 For as the woman [is] of the man, even so [is] the man also by the woman; but all things of God.

13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?

14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for [her] hair is given her for a covering.

16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

17 Now in this that I declare [unto you] I praise [you] not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.

18 For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.

20 When ye come together therefore into one place, [this] is not to eat the Lord's supper.

21 For in eating every one taketh before [other] his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.

22 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I
praise you in this? I praise [you] not.

23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the [same] night in which he was betrayed took bread:

24 And when he had given thanks, he brake [it], and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.

25 After the same manner also [he took] the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye
drink [it], in remembrance of me.

26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.

27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink [this] cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of [that] bread, and drink of [that] cup.

29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

30 For this cause many [are] weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

33 Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.

34 And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.

1 NOW concerning spiritual [gifts], brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.

3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and [that] no man can say that Jesus is the
Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.

6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.

7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.

8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.

8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another [divers] kinds of tongues; to another the
interpretation of tongues:

11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also [is] Christ.

13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether [we be] Jews or Gentiles, whether [we be] bond or free; and have been all made to
drink into one Spirit.

14 For the body is not one member, but many.

15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

16 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

17 If the whole body [were] an eye, where [were] the hearing? If the whole [were] hearing, where [were] the smelling?

18 But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.

19 And if they were all one member, where [were] the body?

20 But now [are they] many members, yet but one body.

21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.

22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:

23 And those [members] of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely [parts]
have more abundant comeliness.

24 For our comely [parts] have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that [part] which lacked:

25 That there should be no schism in the body; but [that] the members should have the same care one for another.

26 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.

27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps,
governments, diversities of tongues.

29 [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all workers of miracles?

30 Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.

1 THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become [as] sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

2 And though I have [the gift of] prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove
mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed [the poor], and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

4 Charity suffereth long, [and] is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

Chapter 14

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 FOLLOW after charity, and desire spiritual [gifts], but rather that ye may prophesy.

2 For he that speaketh in an [unknown] tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth [him]; howbeit in the spirit he
speaketh mysteries.

3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men [to] edification, and exhortation, and comfort.

4 He that speaketh in an [unknown] tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.

5 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater [is] he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except
he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.

6 Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge,
or by prophesying, or by doctrine?

7 And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped
or harped?

8 For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?

9 So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye shall speak into the air.

10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them [is] without signification.

11 Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh [shall be] a barbarian unto
me.

12 Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual [gifts], seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.

13 Wherefore let him that speaketh in an [unknown] tongue pray that he may interpret.

14 For if I pray in an [unknown] tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.

15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the
understanding also.

16 Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he
understandeth not what thou sayest?

17 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.

18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:

19 Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that [by my voice] I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in
an [unknown] tongue.

20 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.

21 In the law it is written, With [men of] other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the
Lord.

22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying [serveth] not for them that believe not,
but for them which believe.

23 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in [those that are] unlearned, or
unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?

24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or [one] unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all:

25 And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on [his] face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.

26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an
interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.

27 If any man speak in an [unknown] tongue, [let it be] by two, or at the most [by] three, and [that] by course; and let one interpret.

28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.

29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.

30 If [any thing] be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.

31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.

32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.

33 For God is not [the author] of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but [they are commanded] to be under obedience, as also
saith the law.

35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

36 What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?

37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the
Lord.

38 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.

39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.

40 Let all things be done decently and in order.

1 MOREOVER, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

5 And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:

6 After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.

7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.

8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.

9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
Copyright (c) 2005-2009, Infobase Media Corp.                                                                                         Page 210 / 1773
10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which [was bestowed] upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than
they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which [was bestowed] upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than
they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

11 Therefore whether [it were] I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.

12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?

13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen:

14 And if Christ be not risen, then [is] our preaching vain, and your faith [is] also vain.

15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the
dead rise not.

16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith [is] vain; ye are yet in your sins.

18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished.

19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, [and] become the firstfruits of them that slept.

21 For since by man [came] death, by man [came] also the resurrection of the dead.

22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.

24 Then [cometh] the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all
authority and power.

25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.

26 The last enemy [that] shall be destroyed [is] death.

27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under [him, it is] manifest that he is excepted, which did put all
things under him.

28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may
be all in all.

29 Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?

30 And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?

31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.

32 If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to morrow
we die.

33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.

34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak [this] to your shame.

35 But some [man] will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?

36 [Thou] fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:

37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other [grain]:

38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.

39 All flesh [is] not the same flesh: but [there is] one [kind of] flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, [and] another of birds.

40 [There are] also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial [is] one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial [is] another.

41 [There is] one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for [one] star differeth from [another] star in glory.

42 So also [is] the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
39 All flesh [is] not the same flesh: but [there is] one [kind of] flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, [and] another of birds.

40 [There are] also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial [is] one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial [is] another.

41 [There is] one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for [one] star differeth from [another] star in glory.

42 So also [is] the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:

43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:

44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam [was made] a quickening spirit.

46 Howbeit that [was] not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.

47 The first man [is] of the earth, earthy: the second man [is] the Lord from heaven.

48 As [is] the earthy, such [are] they also that are earthy: and as [is] the heavenly, such [are] they also that are heavenly.

49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.

50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be
changed.

53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal [must] put on immortality.

54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying
that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

55 O death, where [is] thy sting? O grave, where [is] thy victory?

56 The sting of death [is] sin; and the strength of sin [is] the law.

57 But thanks [be] to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour
is not in vain in the Lord.

1 NOW concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.

2 Upon the first [day] of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as [God] hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.

3 And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by [your] letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto Jerusalem.

4 And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.

5 Now I will come unto you, when I shall pass through Macedonia: for I do pass through Macedonia.

6 And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with you, that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go.

7 For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit.

8 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.

9 For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and [there are] many adversaries.

10 Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also [do].

11 Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct him forth in peace, that he may come unto me: for I look for him with the brethren.

12 As touching [our] brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at this time; but he
will come when he shall have convenient time.

15 I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and [that] they have addicted themselves to the
ministry of the saints,)

16 That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with [us], and laboureth.

17 I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied.

18 For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.

19 The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house.

20 All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with an holy kiss.

22 If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.

Chapter 1

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleAmerican Standard

1 PAUL, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy [our] brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints
which are in all Achaia:

2 Grace [be] to you and peace from God our Father, and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 Blessed [be] God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;

4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are
comforted of God.

5 For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also aboundeth by Christ.

6 And whether we be afflicted, [it is] for your consolation and salvation, which is effectual in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer:
or whether we be comforted, [it is] for your consolation and salvation.

7 And our hope of you [is] stedfast, knowing, that as ye are partakers of the sufferings, so [shall ye be] also of the consolation.

8 For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength,
insomuch that we despaired even of life:

9 But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:

10 Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver [us];

11 Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift [bestowed] upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on
our behalf.

12 For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God,
we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.

13 For we write none other things unto you, than what ye read or acknowledge; and I trust ye shall acknowledge even to the end;

14 As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also [are] ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.

15 And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have a second benefit;

16 And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.
14 As also ye have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as ye also [are] ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.

15 And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have a second benefit;

16 And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.

17 When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should
be yea yea, and nay nay?

18 But [as] God [is] true, our word toward you was not yea and nay.

19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, [even] by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in
him was yea.

20 For all the promises of God in him [are] yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.

21 Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, [is] God;

22 Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

23 Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth.

24 Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand.

Chapter 2

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleAmerican Standard

1 BUT I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness.

2 For if I make you sorry, who is he then that maketh me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me?

3 And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that
my joy is [the joy] of you all.

4 For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love
which I have more abundantly unto you.

5 But if any have caused grief, he hath not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all.

6 Sufficient to such a man [is] this punishment, which [was inflicted] of many.

7 So that contrariwise ye [ought] rather to forgive [him], and comfort [him], lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.

8 Wherefore I beseech you that ye would confirm [your] love toward him.

9 For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether ye be obedient in all things.

10 To whom ye forgive any thing, I [forgive] also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave [it], for your sakes [forgave I it] in the person of
Christ;

11 Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.

12 Furthermore, when I came to Troas to [preach] Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,

13 I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia.

14 Now thanks [be] unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.

15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:

16 To the one [we are] the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who [is] sufficient for these things?

17 For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.

1 DO we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some [others], epistles of commendation to you, or [letters] of commendation from you?

2 Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:

3 [Forasmuch as ye are] manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not
in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.

4 And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:

5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency [is] of God;

6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.

7 But if the ministration of death, written [and] engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of
Moses for the glory of his countenance; which [glory] was to be done away:

8 How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?

9 For if the ministration of condemnation [be] glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.

10 For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth.

11 For if that which is done away [was] glorious, much more that which remaineth [is] glorious.

12 Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:

13 And not as Moses, [which] put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:

14 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which [vail] is done
away in Christ.

15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.

16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.

17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord [is], there [is] liberty.

18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the
Spirit of the Lord.

1 THEREFORE seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;

2 But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of
the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of
God, should shine unto them.

5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.

6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to [give] the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in
the face of Jesus Christ.

7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

8 [We are] troubled on every side, yet not distressed; [we are] perplexed, but not in despair;

9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;

10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.

11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

which are not seen [are] eternal.

Chapter 5

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleAmerican Standard

1 FOR we know that if our earthly house of [this] tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the
heavens.

2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:

3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.

4 For we that are in [this] tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be
swallowed up of life.

5 Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing [is] God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.

6 Therefore [we are] always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:

7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

8 We are confident, [I say], and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.

10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things [done] in [his] body, according to that he hath
done, whether [it be] good or bad.

11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your
consciences.

12 For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to [answer] them which
glory in appearance, and not in heart.

13 For whether we be beside ourselves, [it is] to God: or whether we be sober, [it is] for your cause.

14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:

15 And [that] he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.

16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we [him] no
more.

17 Therefore if any man [be] in Christ, [he is] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

18 And all things [are] of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word
of reconciliation.

20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech [you] by us: we pray [you] in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.

4 But in all [things] approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,

5 In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;

6 By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,

7 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

8 By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and [yet] true;

9 As unknown, and [yet] well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;

10 As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and [yet] possessing all things.

11 O [ye] Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged.

12 Ye are not straitened in us, but ye are straitened in your own bowels.

13 Now for a recompence in the same, (I speak as unto [my] children,) be ye also enlarged.

14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath
light with darkness?

15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk
in [them]; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

2 Receive us; we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded no man.

3 I speak not [this] to condemn [you]: for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts to die and live with [you].

4 Great [is] my boldness of speech toward you, great [is] my glorying of you: I am filled with comfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation.

5 For, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without [were] fightings, within [were] fears.

7 And not by his coming only, but by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, when he told us your earnest desire, your mourning, your
fervent mind toward me; so that I rejoiced the more.

to be clear in this matter.

for you in the sight of God might appear unto you.

all.

14 For if I have boasted any thing to him of you, I am not ashamed; but as we spake all things to you in truth, even so our boasting, which [I made]
before Titus, is found a truth.

him.

1 MOREOVER, brethren, we do you to wit of the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia;

2 How that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.

3 For to [their] power, I bear record, yea, and beyond [their] power [they were] willing of themselves;

4 Praying us with much intreaty that we would receive the gift, and [take upon us] the fellowship of the ministering to the saints.

5 And [this they did], not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God.

6 Insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also.

7 Therefore, as ye abound in every [thing, in] faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and [in] all diligence, and [in] your love to us, [see] that ye
abound in this grace also.

8 I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.

9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be
rich.

10 And herein I give [my] advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago.

11 Now therefore perform the doing [of it]; that as [there was] a readiness to will, so [there may be] a performance also out of that which ye have.

12 For if there be first a willing mind, [it is] accepted according to that a man hath, [and] not according to that he hath not.

13 For [I mean] not that other men be eased, and ye burdened:

14 But by an equality, [that] now at this time your abundance [may be a supply] for their want, that their abundance also may be [a supply] for
your want: that there may be equality:

15 As it is written, He that [had gathered] much had nothing over; and he that [had gathered] little had no lack.

16 But thanks [be] to God, which put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.

17 For indeed he accepted the exhortation; but being more forward, of his own accord he went unto you.

18 And we have sent with him the brother, whose praise [is] in the gospel throughout all the churches;

19 And not [that] only, but who was also chosen of the churches to travel with us with this grace, which is administered by us to the glory of the same
Lord, and [declaration of] your ready mind:

1 FOR as touching the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you:

2 For I know the forwardness of your mind, for which I boast of you to them of Macedonia, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal hath
provoked very many.

3 Yet have I sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you should be in vain in this behalf; that, as I said, ye may be ready:

4 Lest haply if they of Macedonia come with me, and find you unprepared, we (that we say not, ye) should be ashamed in this same confident
boasting.

5 Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren, that they would go before unto you, and make up beforehand your bounty, whereof ye had
notice before, that the same might be ready, as [a matter of] bounty, and not as [of] covetousness.

6 But this [I say], He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.

7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, [so let him give]; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

8 And God [is] able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all [things], may abound to every good work:

9 (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever.

10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for [your] food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your
righteousness;)

11 Being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.

12 For the administration of this service not only supplieth the want of the saints, but is abundant also by many thanksgivings unto God;

13 Whiles by the experiment of this ministration they glorify God for your professed subjection unto the gospel of Christ, and for [your] liberal
distribution unto them, and unto all [men];

14 And by their prayer for you, which long after you for the exceeding grace of God in you.

15 Thanks [be] unto God for his unspeakable gift.

Chapter 10

1 NOW I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, who in presence [am] base among you, but being absent am bold
toward you:

2 But I beseech [you], that I may not be bold when I am present with that confidence, wherewith I think to be bold against some, which think of us as
if we walked according to the flesh.

3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:

4 (For the weapons of our warfare [are] not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)

5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to
the obedience of Christ;

5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to
the obedience of Christ;

6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

7 Do ye look on things after the outward appearance? If any man trust to himself that he is Christ's, let him of himself think this again, that, as he [is]
Christ's, even so [are] we Christ's.

8 For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not
be ashamed:

9 That I may not seem as if I would terrify you by letters.

10 For [his] letters, say they, [are] weighty and powerful; but [his] bodily presence [is] weak, and [his] speech contemptible.

11 Let such an one think this, that, such as we are in word by letters when we are absent, such [will we be] also in deed when we are present.

12 For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by
themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

13 But we will not boast of things without [our] measure, but according to the measure of the rule which God hath distributed to us, a measure to
reach even unto you.

14 For we stretch not ourselves beyond [our measure], as though we reached not unto you: for we are come as far as to you also in [preaching] the
gospel of Christ:

15 Not boasting of things without [our] measure, [that is], of other men's labours; but having hope, when your faith is increased, that we shall be
enlarged by you according to our rule abundantly,

16 To preach the gospel in the [regions] beyond you, [and] not to boast in another man's line of things made ready to our hand.

17 But he that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

18 For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth.

Chapter 11

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleAmerican Standard

1 WOULD to God ye could bear with me a little in [my] folly: and indeed bear with me.

2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present [you as] a chaste virgin to Christ.

3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in
Christ.

4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or [if] ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another
gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with [him].

5 For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles.

6 But though [I be] rude in speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly made manifest among you in all things.

7 Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that ye might be exalted, because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely?

8 I robbed other churches, taking wages [of them], to do you service.

9 And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was lacking to me the brethren which came from
Macedonia supplied: and in all [things] I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, and [so] will I keep [myself].

10 As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaia.

11 Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth.

12 But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.

13 For such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

15 Therefore [it is] no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

16 I say again, Let no man think me a fool; if otherwise, yet as a fool receive me, that I may boast myself a little.

17 That which I speak, I speak [it] not after the Lord, but as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting.

18 Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also.

19 For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye [yourselves] are wise.

20 For ye suffer, if a man bring you into bondage, if a man devour [you], if a man take [of you], if a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the
face.

21 I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak foolishly,) I am bold also.

22 Are they Hebrews? so [am] I. Are they Israelites? so [am] I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so [am] I.

23 Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I [am] more; in labours more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in
deaths oft.

24 Of the Jews five times received I forty [stripes] save one.

25 Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep;

26 [In] journeyings often, [in] perils of waters, [in] perils of robbers, [in] perils by [mine own] countrymen, [in] perils by the heathen, [in] perils in the
city, [in] perils in the wilderness, [in] perils in the sea, [in] perils among false brethren;

27 In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.

28 Beside those things that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, the care of all the churches.

29 Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not?

30 If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities.

31 The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not.

32 In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king kept the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desirous to apprehend me:

33 And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and escaped his hands.

Chapter 12

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleAmerican Standard

1 IT is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

2 I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such
an one caught up to the third heaven.

3 And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;)

4 How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

5 Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities.

6 For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but [now] I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that
which he seeth me [to be], or [that] he heareth of me.

7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of
Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.

8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.

9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my
infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I

11 I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest
apostles, though I be nothing.

12 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.

13 For what is it wherein ye were inferior to other churches, except [it be] that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong.

14 Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to
lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

15 And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.

16 But be it so, I did not burden you: nevertheless, being crafty, I caught you with guile.

17 Did I make a gain of you by any of them whom I sent unto you?

18 I desired Titus, and with [him] I sent a brother. Did Titus make a gain of you? walked we not in the same spirit? [walked we] not in the same
steps?

19 Again, think ye that we excuse ourselves unto you? we speak before God in Christ: but [we do] all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying.

20 For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and [that] I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest [there be] debates,
envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:

21 [And] lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and [that] I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not
repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.

Chapter 13

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleAmerican Standard

1 THIS [is] the third [time] I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

2 I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned, and to
all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare:

3 Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.

4 For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the
power of God toward you.

5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be
reprobates?

6 But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates.

7 Now I pray to God that ye do no evil; not that we should appear approved, but that ye should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates.

8 For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.

9 For we are glad, when we are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish, [even] your perfection.

10 Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to
edification, and not to destruction.

11 Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

12 Greet one another with an holy kiss.

13 All the saints salute you.

14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, [be] with you all. Amen.

Galatians
Chapter 1

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 PAUL, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)

2 And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:

3 Grace [be] to you and peace from God the Father, and [from] our Lord Jesus Christ,

4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:

5 To whom [be] glory for ever and ever. Amen.

6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:

7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.

8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any [man] preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.

12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught [it], but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:

14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.

15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called [me] by his grace,

16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:

17 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.

18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.

19 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.

20 Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.

21 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;

22 And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:

23 But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.

24 And they glorified God in me.

1 THEN fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with [me] also.

2 And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of
reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.

3 But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:

4 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might
bring us into bondage:

5 To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

6 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's person:) for they who seemed
[to be somewhat] in conference added nothing to me:

5 To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

6 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's person:) for they who seemed
[to be somewhat] in conference added nothing to me:

7 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as [the gospel] of the circumcision [was] unto Peter;

8 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)

9 And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right
hands of fellowship; that we [should go] unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.

10 Only [they would] that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was forward to do.

11 But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.

12 For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them
which were of the circumcision.

13 And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.

14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before [them] all, If thou, being a Jew, livest
after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?

15 We [who are] Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,

16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might
be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

17 But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, [is] therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.

18 For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.

19 For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.

20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son
of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

21 I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness [come] by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.

Chapter 3

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth,
crucified among you?

2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?

4 Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if [it be] yet in vain.

5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, [doeth he it] by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.

7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, [saying], In thee shall all
nations be blessed.

9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed [is] every one that continueth not in all things which are
written in the book of the law to do them.

11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, [it is] evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed [is] every one that hangeth on a tree:

14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though [it be] but a man's covenant, yet [if it be] confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.

16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

17 And this I say, [that] the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot
disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.

18 For if the inheritance [be] of the law, [it is] no more of promise: but God gave [it] to Abraham by promise.

19 Wherefore then [serveth] the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; [and it was]
ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

20 Now a mediator is not [a mediator] of one, but God is one.

21 [Is] the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness
should have been by the law.

22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster [to bring us] unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.

26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

29 And if ye [be] Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Chapter 4

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 NOW I say, [That] the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;

2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.

3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:

4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,

5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

8 Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.

9 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire

12 Brethren, I beseech you, be as I [am]; for I [am] as ye [are]: ye have not injured me at all.

13 Ye know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.

14 And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, [even] as Christ Jesus.

15 Where is then the blessedness ye spake of? for I bear you record, that, if [it had been] possible, ye would have plucked out your own eyes, and
have given them to me.

16 Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?

17 They zealously affect you, [but] not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.

18 But [it is] good to be zealously affected always in [a] good [thing], and not only when I am present with you.

19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,

20 I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you.

21 Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?

22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.

23 But he [who was] of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman [was] by promise.

24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.

25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.

26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.

27 For it is written, Rejoice, [thou] barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children
than she which hath an husband.

28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.

29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him [that was born] after the Spirit, even so [it is] now.

30 Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the
freewoman.

31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.

Chapter 5

1 STAND fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.

3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.

4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.

6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.

7 Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?

8 This persuasion [cometh] not of him that calleth you.

9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.

10 I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever
he be.

11 And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.

13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only [use] not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

16 [This] I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things
that ye would.

18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are [these]; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told [you] in time past, that they which do
such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

Chapter 6

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 BRETHREN, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also
be tempted.

2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

4 But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

5 For every man shall bear his own burden.

6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things.

7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all [men], especially unto them who are of the household of faith.

11 Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own hand.

12 As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of
Christ.

13 For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.

14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.

15 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.

Ephesians
Chapter 1

Other Translations:Joseph Smith TranslationTyndaleDouay RheimsAmerican Standard

1 PAUL, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:

2 Grace [be] to you, and peace, from God our Father, and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly [places] in Christ:

4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.

7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

8 Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence;

9 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself:

10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on
earth; [even] in him:

11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of
his own will:

12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.

13 In whom ye also [trusted], after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed
with that holy Spirit of promise,

14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his
inheritance in the saints,

19 And what [is] the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,

20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set [him] at his own right hand in the heavenly [places],

21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to
come:

22 And hath put all [things] under his feet, and gave him [to be] the head over all [things] to the church,

23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

1 AND you [hath he quickened], who were dead in trespasses and sins;

2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in
the children of disobedience:

3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by
nature the children of wrath, even as others.

4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,

5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)

6 And hath raised [us] up together, and made [us] sit together in heavenly [places] in Christ Jesus:

7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in [his] kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the gift of God:

9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

11 Wherefore remember, that ye [being] in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in
the flesh made by hands;

12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no
hope, and without God in the world:

13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition [between us];

15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, [even] the law of commandments [contained] in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new
man, [so] making peace;

16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby:

17 And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.

18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.

19 Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;

20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner [stone];

21 In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,

2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

4 [There is] one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

6 One God and Father of all, who [is] above all, and through all, and in you all.

7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.

9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?

10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)

11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

of Christ:

14 That we [henceforth] be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, [and] cunning
craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, [even] Christ:

16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the
measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;

23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

27 Neither give place to the devil.

28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with [his] hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that
needeth.

29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the
hearers.

30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;

4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ
and of God.

6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove [them].

12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.

13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.

20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

21 Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so [let] the wives [be] to their own husbands in every thing.

25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without
blemish.

28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.

29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:

30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife [see] that she reverence [her] husband.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

21 But that ye also may know my affairs, [and] how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all
things:

22 Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and [that] he might comfort your hearts.

23 Peace [be] to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

24 Grace [be] with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen.

1 PAUL and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:

2 Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

4 Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy,

5 For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;

6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform [it] until the day of Jesus Christ:

7 Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and
confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.

8 For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.

9 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and [in] all judgment;

10 That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ;

11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

12 But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things [which happened] unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;

13 So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other [places];

14 And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

15 Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:

17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.

18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether [it be] by life, or by death.
19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

20 According to my earnest expectation and [my] hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but [that] with all boldness, as always, [so] now also
Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether [it be] by life, or by death.

21 For to me to live [is] Christ, and to die [is] gain.

22 But if I live in the flesh, this [is] the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not.

23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better:

24 Nevertheless to abide in the flesh [is] more needful for you.

25 And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;

26 That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.

27 Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs,
that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

28 And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.

29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

30 Having the same conflict which ye saw in me, and now hear [to be] in me.

Mysteries

Perhaps the need to develop faith about the basics is one of the reasons why we are warned about the mysteries, what might be called the radioactive doctrines. We
are ready to experiment, as Alma urged, with basic gospel principles, but we are ill equipped to handle the radioactive doctrines in the tiny laboratories of our minds;
they can become a dangerous diversion from what our highest priority really is-to become like Jesus! (Matt. 5:48; 3 Ne. 27:27.) (We Talk of Christ, We Rejoice in
Christ, p. 70.)

Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ are actually giving away the secrets of the universe. If only you and I will not become offended by Their generosity, if only we will not
be indifferent to the significance of the things revealed to us in holy temples and in holy scriptures. (Talk given January 8, 1995.)

Mysteries consist of truth-laden ordinances, but they are not fully efficacious if received barren of appropriate prerequisite behavior. Instead these ordinances and truths
require that the would-be recipient "repenteth and exerciseth faith, and bringeth forth good works, and prayeth continually without ceasing-unto such it is given to know
the mysteries of God" (Alma 26:22). Doing brings knowing (John 7:16). ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 132.)

Nobility

The faithful but perhaps plump woman whose nails are worn but who is a giving mother, wife, and neighbor has a queenly beautyand a regal way, if we would but see
her as she really is; her beauty will not be taken from her by the passing years. The paraplegic in the wheelchair who refuses to indulge himself in self-pity-his giving and
achieving has genuine glamour. One day he will stand very tall and straight; he should do so already in our eyes. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, pp. 61-
62.)

Nonbelievers

The barbed questions of the faithless do not deserve answers any more than the taunts which Christ himself suffered while on the cross. The inquiring probes of some
nonbelievers are not really questions at all, but simply a reconnaissance aimed at discovering any breeches in the defenses of the believer who holds the fortress of faith.
The nonbeliever often does not really care to know. He seeks to have his sport, to work up a semantical sweat, grasping what pleasures he can from a life otherwise
filled with forlornness. (A Time to Choose, p. 32.)

For those who think they can keep the second great commandment without keeping the first, it may be enough for now to say that we cannot really love others unless
we know who others really are. How can we know their deepest needs without knowing their true identity? Yes, the glass of water given by a disbeliever to the thirsty
individual is just as refreshing and the crust of bread just as filling. But irreverence for, or an unwillingness to acknowledge, the Ultimate Source of both the water and
the bread keeps that moment of giving and receiving from its completeness. As the Savior said, water from the well is useful, but we will thirst, again and again, unless
we drink of the living waters. (John 4:13-14.) Disbelievers do good, but it is a good that is not good enough. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, pp. 67-
68.)

Fortunately, God neither stops existing nor loving because a mere mortal rejects Him. So far as nonbelievers are concerned, we must not reject them because they
reject our message. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward,.p. 108.)

Nostalgia

Some nostalgia on our part for days past is pardonable-but not much, because nostalgia can be narcotic in the demands it makes on us to fix our faces on the past. ("A
More Excellent Way", p. 10.)

Obedience

Obedience is the outer expression of our inner gospel gyroscope. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 43.)
Copyright (c) 2005-2009, Infobase Media Corp.                                                                                                        Page 234 / 1773
It is important to understand that obedience is not simply a requirement of a capricious God who wants us to jump hurdles for the entertainment of a royal court. It is
really the pleading of a loving Father for you and me to discover, as quickly as we can, that there are key concepts and principles that will bring happiness in a planned
but otherwise cold universe. (A Time to Choose, pp. 13-14.)
Obedience

Obedience is the outer expression of our inner gospel gyroscope. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 43.)

It is important to understand that obedience is not simply a requirement of a capricious God who wants us to jump hurdles for the entertainment of a royal court. It is
really the pleading of a loving Father for you and me to discover, as quickly as we can, that there are key concepts and principles that will bring happiness in a planned
but otherwise cold universe. (A Time to Choose, pp. 13-14.)

Personal spiritual symmetry emerges only from the shaping of prolonged obedience. Twigs are bent, not snapped into shape. (Ensign, May 1990, p. 34.)

We do not always know why our obedience in the here and now is so steadily crucial, but it is no doubt bound up in our usefulness and happiness in the there and then!
("'Thanks Be to God,'" p. 11.)

The principle of obedience has fallen on hard times; obedience is low on the world's scale of values. There are causes for this, of course. Some have done terribly
wrong things in obedience to unjust leaders. Some have engaged in senseless subordination to bad causes, becoming mere satellites in mindless orbits. Satan always
pretzelizes principles in order to increase human misery. But obedience is so essential for the gospel journey; it must be rescued from the careless conclusions reached
by sloppy intellects. The tests of obedience are always "to whom?" and "to what?" Obedience is not blind faith but following the glimpses we get when seeing with the
eye of faith. ("All Hell Is Moved," p. 179.)

With every ounce of obedience comes a bushel of blessings. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 29.)

Significantly, Abraham did not see the substitute ram on Mount Moriah until after the moment that mattered, when he obediently "stretched forth his hand, and took the
knife. " (Gen. 22:10.) Sometimes the cross must be taken up just that decisively. There is no time for an agonizing appraisal. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 76.)

Ahead in eternity there may be "narrow passages" yet to be navigated, passages which are unknown to us now. Strict obedience will still be essential. Otherwise we
would not really be equipped to live in such a universe, which, for all we know, will require not only our obedience but also spiritual daring in order for us to come
safely through. (That Ye May Believe, p. 13.)

Obedience [is not] a mindless shifting of our personal responsibility. Instead, it is tying ourselves to a living God who will introduceus-as soon as we are ready-to new
and heavier responsibilities involving situations of high adventure. Obedience, therefore, is not evasion; it is an invasion-one that takes us deep into the realm of our
possibilities. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 127.)

Those who make demands of the Lord Himself (or His mortal leaders) to perform according to their criteria actually want a God who will serve them, not vice versa!
("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 92.)

God's blessings, including those associated with consecration, come by unforced obedience to the laws upon which they are predicated (see D&C 130:20-21). Thus
our deepest desires determine our degree of "obedience to the unenforceable." (Ensign, November 1995, p. 24.)

Obscenity

Grossness in conduct is usually preceded or accompanied by grossness in language. Instead of employing beauty and variety, obscenity exhibits poverty of expression.
What jars is not only the mounting crudeness but also the increasing sameness-like the indistinguishable grunts of a herd in a hurry to worship afresh at the shrine of
sensualism. (That Ye May Believe, p. 75.)

Offenses

Some of us endure life's major afflictions better than we endure small slights. How do we feel, for example, when we are unfairly unmentioned in a public litany of
appreciation? Though we may appear outwardly unoffended, do we brood inwardly? Was the oversight deliberate or merely forgetful? For the meek, however, any
regret is minimal and concern is reserved for the one who did the overlooking, lest he be embarrassed. (That Ye May Believe, p. 55.)

Our planning usually assumes that our destiny is largely in our own hands. Then come intruding events, first elbowing aside, then evicting, what we had anticipated and
even earned. Hence we can be offended by events as well as by people. (Men and Women of Christ, p. 63.)

Omissions

Most omissions occur because we fail to get outside ourselves. We are so busy checking on our own temperatures, we do not notice the burning fevers of others.
(Ensign, November 1995, p. 23.)

Many of us thus have sufficient faith to avoid the major sins of commission, but not enough faith to sacrifice our distracting obsessions or to focus on our omissions.
(Ensign, November 1995, p. 23.)

Omnipotence

It is one of the hallmarks of human vanity that we assume, because we cannot do something, that God cannot do it either. Is it not marvelous that the Father and the
Son blend perfect love and perfect power? (Even As I Am, p. 27.)

Furthermore, because the centerpiece of the Atonement is already in place, we know that everything else in God's plan will likewise finally succeed. God is surely able
to do His own work (see 2 Ne. 27:20-21). In His plans for the human family, long ago God made ample provision for all mortal mistakes. His purposes will all triumph,
and will do so without abrogating man's moral agency. Moreover, all His purposes will come to pass in their time. (See D&C 64:32; see also Teachings of the Prophet
Joseph Smith, p. 220.) (Men and Women of Christ, p. 12.)

Whether in a micro or a macro mode, God is "able to do [His] own work." Parting the Red Sea for ancient Israel was easy for Him who, centuries before, had brought
to pass the parting or dividing of the earth's oceans and continents (see Gen. 10:25; 1 Chr. 1:19; D&C 133:24). (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 122.)

Impotence cannot dictate terms to Omnipotence. (A Time to Choose, p. 18.)

Impotence cannot dictate terms to Omnipotence. (A Time to Choose, p. 18.)

Having genuine faith in God clearly requires not only believing that He is there but also that He is cosmically competent-that He can really bring to pass His purposes (2
Ne. 27:20, 21). (The Christmas Scene, p. 7.)

Omniscience

God's omniscience permits Him to take all things into account. He is perfectly aware, perfectly loving, perfectly empathic. But He is also deeply committed to our moral
agency and to our spiritual development. His interventions are His decisions, and they will always reflect His divine attributes at the center of which is His loving-
kindness. (That Ye May Believe, p. 34.)

The Lord, who was able to say to his disciples, "Cast the net on the right side of the ship," knew beforehand there was a multitude of fishes there (John 21:6). If he
knew beforehand the movements and whereabouts of fishes in the little Sea of Tiberias, should it offend us that he knows beforehand which mortals will come into the
gospel net? ("Meeting the Challenges of Today," p. 153.)

When we are unduly impatient with circumstances, we may be suggesting that we know what is best-better than does God. Or, at least, we are asserting that our
timetable is better than His. Either way, we are questioning the reality of God's omniscience as if, as some seem to believe, God were on some sort of post-doctoral
fellowship, trying to complete His understanding and, therefore, needing to use us as consultants. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, pp. 59-60.)

When the Lord asks us to confess His hand in all things, He is not seeking our ritualistic incantation concerning His powers. Again, He is after realism in us, including
our acknowledgment that His omniscience has made allowance even for human errors of which He does not approve, but which are not allowed to frustrate His overall
plan. We can count on His plans-even when He cannot count on us! (Even As I Am, p. 57.)

God, who knows the end from the beginning, knows, therefore, all that is in between. He could not safely see us through our individual allotments of "all these things"
that shall give us experience if He did not first know "all things." (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 7.)

There are no qualifiers, only flat and absolute assertions of the omniscience of God. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 7.)

God can see into the hearts of the malcontents even before they form a mob, just as He saw where civil rebellion in America was to begin. (D&C 87:1; 130:12.) (All
These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 13.)

By foreseeing, God can plan and His purposes can be fulfilled, but He does this in a way that does not in the least compromise our individual agency, any more than an
able meteorologist causes the weather rather than forecasts it. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 19.)

It is crucial to remember that while we often fail our opportunities, God is neither pleased nor surprised that we do not rise to those opportunities. But we cannot say to
him later on that we could have achieved had we only been given the chance. This is all part of the justice of God. (Things As They Really Are, p. 28.)

God does not live in the dimension of time as do we. We are not only hampered by our finiteness (experiential and intellectual), but also by being in the dimension of
time. Moreover, God, since "all things are present" with him, is not simply predicting based solely on the past. In ways that are not clear to us, he sees rather than
foresees the future, because all things are at once present before him. (Things As They Really Are, p. 29.)

While a person is thinking his way through his particular hesitations or reservations about faith, he might ask, "Does God reallyknow what I am passing through?" The
answer is "Yes!" He knows! He also knew-through His foreknowledge. (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 39.)

The new star [of Bethlehem] would have had to be placed in its precise orbit long, long before it shone so precisely! By reflecting such careful divine design, it
underscored what the Lord has said: "All things must come to pass in their time" (D&C 64:32). His planning and precision pertain not only to astrophysical orbits but to
human orbits as well. (The Christmas Scene, pp. 2-3.)

Opposition

Even though it is true that there must be an "opposition in all things" [2 Ne. 2:11], none of us has the personal obligation to provide that opposition. (All These Things
Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 108.)

Ordinances

Ordinances thus blend faith and works. They are not, however, rituals which save all by themselves, that is, if unaided by the righteous life. Covenants must be kept
before blessings flow. On the other hand, random goodness, unaccompanied by divine ordinances, is not of full salvational effect either: "Wherefore he that prayeth,
whose spirit is contrite, the same is accepted of me if he obey mine ordinances" (D&C 52:15). (Lord, Increase Our Faith, pp. 76-77.)

Ordinances are necessary milestones in this mortal march, marking and showing the way, signifying those things which are bothendings and beginnings, such as baptism,
which signifies both a burial and a resurrection. (Of One Heart, p. 48.)

We can and should have faith in [the] saving ordinances, just as we do in Him whose prescribed ordinances they are. The ordinances are not merely quaint and
reminding rituals. They are essential, both for the "here and now" and to qualify us for the "there and then." (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 73.)

Developing saintly qualities is every bit as essential as receiving the ordinances of the gospel. Thus developing charity is clearly just as essential for admission to the
upper realms of the celestial kingdom as is baptism! (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 33.)

Orthodoxy

Orthodoxy in thought and behavior brings safety and felicity as the storms come, including "every wind of doctrine." (See Eph. 4:14.) Happily, amid such winds the
Holy Ghost not only helps us to recognize plain truth but also plain nonsense! (Ensign, May 1993, p. 78.)

True orthodoxy consists of keeping the doctrines, ordinances, covenants, and programs of the Church and Christian service in proper balance. In this daily balancing
process, we are not excused from exercising good judgment-after all that manuals and handbooks can do. (Ensign, November 1988, p. 31.)
 Copyright (c) 2005-2009, Infobase Media Corp.                                                                                                         Page 236 / 1773
Great care must be exercised so that we do not pass off our personal preferences as the Lord's program; we must not confuseour personal religious hobbies with His
orthodoxy. Nor must we ever pass off a personal obsession as a spiritual impression. ("'True Believers in Christ,'" p. 136.)

In orthodoxy lies real safety and real felicity! Flowing from orthodoxy is not only correctness but happiness. Orthodoxy is especially vital in a time of raging relativism
and belching sensualism. The world's morality is constantly being improvised. Some views are politically correct one day, but not another. ("The Inexhaustible Gospel,"
p. 146.)

The orthodox Latter-day Saint scholar should remember that his citizenship is in the Kingdom and that his professional passport takes him abroad into his specialty. It is
not the other way around. That fact is true not only for the professor but also for the plumber in his relationships with his union. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 15.)

Preserving orthodoxy is a delicate challenge. It is also one of the missions of the Church, because human happiness will be greater with orthodoxy than it will be
following satellite belief systems whose outcome is always less than the sum required for full happiness. (A Time to Choose, p. 12.)

Pacifism

The contagious pacifism of which we read in the scriptures describes those who would not make war, even in self-defense, but instead trusted in the blessings of God
(see Alma 24:17-27). Can we recommend unconditional pacifism or unilateral disarmament for any people who are not otherwise righteous and therefore are unable to
rely on the Lord to bless them? Would the citizens ofSodom have been spared if they had been pacifists but otherwise unrighteous? Or does unilateral disarmament
constitute undue reliance upon the arm of flesh and natural man? (Sermons Not Spoken, p. 33.)

Parents

As parenting declines, the need for policing increases. There will always be a shortage of police if there is a shortage of effective parents! Likewise, there will not be
enough prisons if there are not enough good homes. (Ensign, May 1994, p. 89.)

Just as the leaning Tower of Pisa is a persistent rebuke to architectural pessimism, so parental hope-by refusing to topple merely because of the gravity of the current
family situation-is a repudiation of despair. Giving parents never give up hope! (Ensign, November 1994, p. 36.)

When we return to our real home, it will be with the "mutual approbation" of those who reign in the "royal courts on high." There we will find beauty such as mortal "eye
hath not seen"; we will hear sounds of surpassing music which mortal "ear hath not heard." Could such a regal homecoming be possible without the anticipatory
arrangements of a Heavenly Mother? (Ensign, May 1978, p. 11.)

What in you is merely casualness about Christianity may, in your children, become hostility; for what you have not defended your children may reject angrily. (Ensign,
November 1974, p. 12.)

We see our near-perfect parents, Adam and Eve, coping with challenges in the first family, for their children too, came trailing traits from their formative first estate.
(Ensign, November 1976, p. 13.)

We [should] allow for the agency of others (including our children) before we assess our adequacy. Often our deliberate best is less effectual because of someone
else's worst. (Ensign, November 1976, p. 14.)

Parents, striving to reach and to rescue the truculent teenager, experiencing disappointment after disappointment and wondering when it all will end, can be assured,
"Yet thou [God] art there!" (Ensign, November 1987, p. 32.)

"Glory be to the Father" for allowing His special Son to suffer and to be sacrificed for all of us. On Judgment Day, brothers and sisters, will any of us want to rush
forward to tell our Father how we, as parents, suffered when we watched our children suffer? (Ensign, May 1989, p. 64.)

When some choose slackness, they are choosing not only for themselves, but for the next generation and the next. Small equivocations in parents can produce large
deviations in their children! Earlier generations in a family may have reflected dedication, while some in the current generation evidence equivocation. Sadly, in the next,
some may choose dissension, as erosion takes its toll. (Ensign, November 1992, p. 66.)

The fifth commandment's laudable emphasis upon honoring parents, unless checked by the first commandment, could result in unconditional loyalty to errant parents
rather than to God. (Ensign, May 1993, p. 78.)

Malfunctioning fathers are a much more common phenomenon in the Church than are malfunctioning mothers. Often the success-oriented male leaves untended some of
his responsibilities to his wife and family. Even so, having one "sentry" who has gone AWOL joined by another "sentry," the wife and mother, is no help. (Deposition of
a Disciple, p. 84.)

When parents fail to transmit testimony and theology along with decency, those families are only one generation from serious spiritual decline, having lost their savor.
The law of the harvest is nowhere more in evidence and nowhere more relentless than in family gardens! (Ensign, May 1994, p. 90.)

Sincere parents are anxious to make their house a home and not merely a hotel-where mother is maid and chef and father is a desk clerk and a bell captain with the car
keys. (That My Family Should Partake, p. 2.)

Without the guides of the gospel and of living prophets, we can all be caught up into various fads and fashions having to do with child rearing. In such a situation, we
can very easily slide into permissiveness. (That My Family Should Partake, p. 15.)

Parents who crave the approval of their children at the expense of principle will find that they worship a jealous and capricious god. (That My Family Should Partake,
pp. 75-76.)

Sometimes as parents when we sound "general quarters," it isn't because the enemy has been sighted, but rather because we have a need to demonstrate to the "crew"
that the "captain" is on the bridge. (That My Family Should Partake, p. 98.)

We, as parents, would do well to hold one partner and/or some of ourselves in reserve so that we are not entirely spent on tactical matters. Strategic reserves are
intended to be just that: something held in reserve for the moments that are decisive. If both parents commit themselves simultaneously to the field of action on every
issue, as a pair, they will miss those opportunities when it is wise to have one parent held in reserve so that if the other parent, in a sense, has spent himself, or herself,
there is still someone left to shape the final outcome; sometimes parents need to pass the baton, so to speak, so that one of them is fresh for the next lap. (That My
Family Should Partake, p. 99.)

It is in the very nature of parenting that parents need to be authoritative, yet without being authoritarian. (That Ye May Believe, p. 16.)

Parents and teachers are planting little intellectual time bombs that will helpfully be set off by certain pressures of circumstances and human chemistry. This perspective
ought to give teachers and parents reason to reflect on the nature of their teaching investment. The parental portfolio needs balance between teaching on current matters
and the teaching whose dividends will be deferred till a time when they will be much needed-in four years or in a decade. ("For the Power Is in Them " Mormon
Musings, pp. 24-25.)

There are wise limits in daily life. For instance, how many of the various "lessons" for their children can young parents sustain, financially as well as transportationally?
How much such "good" can their children actually stand? We sometimes do so much for our children that we can do nothing with them! (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p.
117.)

Patience

Patience is clearly not fatalistic, shoulder-shrugging resignation. It is the acceptance of a

Patience is a willingness, in a sense, to watch the unfolding purposes of God with a sense of wonder and awe, rather than pacing up and down within the cell of our
circumstances. ("Patience," p. 216.)

The patient person can better understand how there are circumstances when, if our hearts are set too much upon the things of thisworld, they must be broken-but for
our sakes, and not merely as a demonstration of

Patience is not indifference. Actually, it means caring very much but being willing, nevertheless, to submit to the Lord and to what the scriptures call the "process of
time." ("Patience," p. 215.)

A patient willingness to defer

Clearly, without patience, we will learn less in life. We will see less. We will feel less. We will hear less. Ironically, "rush" and "more" usually mean "less." The pressures
of "now," time and time again, go against the grain of the gospel with its eternalism. ("Patience and the Law of the Harvest.")

Sometimes that which we are doing is correct enough but simply needs to be persisted in patiently, not for a minute or a moment but sometimes for years. Paul speaks
of the marathon of life and of how we must "run with patience the race that is set before us" (Heb. 12:1). Paul did not select the hundred-meter dash for his analogy!
("Patience," p. 216.)

Very importantly, it is patience, when combined with love, which permits us "in process of time" to detoxify our disappointments. Patience and love take the
radioactivity out of our resentments. These are neither small nor occasional needs in most of our lives. ("Patience," p. 217.)

God's timing, which calls for our patience, is often His way of preserving our agency. We halt at a busy intersection when we hear sirens; we pull over for fire trucks.
Spiritual emergencies are no different, except that, alas, there are no loud sirens to be heard! (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 68.)

In our approach to life, patience also helps us to realize that, while we may be ready to move on, having had enough of a particular learning experience, our continuing
presence is a needed part of the learning environment for others. Patience is thus closely connected with other central attributes of Christianity-love and humility.
("Patience and the Law of the Harvest.")

Patience is not only a companion of faith but is also a friend to moral agency. Inside our impatience there is sometimes an ugly reality: we are plainly irritated and
inconvenienced by the need to make allowances for the agency of others. In our impatience we would override others, even though it is obvious that our individual
differences and preferences are so irretrievably enmeshed with each other, that the only resolution which preserves agency is for us to be patient and long-suffering with
each other. ("Patience and the Law of the Harvest.")

Patience permits us to cling to our faith in the Lord when we are tossed about by suffering as if by surf. When the undertow grasps us, we will realize that we are
somehow being carried forward even as we tumble; we are actually being helped even as we cry for help. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 67.)

Perfection

Our perfect Father does not expect us to be perfect children yet. He had only one such Child. Meanwhile, therefore, sometimes with smudges on our cheeks, dirt on
our hands, and shoes untied, stammeringly but smilingly we present God with a dandelion-as if it were an orchid or a rose! If for now the dandelion is the best we have
to offer, He receives it, knowing what we may later place on the altar. It is good to remember how young we are spiritually. (That Ye May Believe, p. 100.)

Striving to become like the Father and the Son is more than an optional objective. Focusing on the personality of Jesus is an intellectual and behavioral as well as
theological imperative. (Even As I Am, p. 13.)

In a Kingdom where perfection is an eventual expectation, each other's needs for improvement have a way of being noticed. (Ensign, November 1976, p. 12.)

The Church is for the perfecting of the Saints, hence new arrivals are entitled to expect instant community but not instant sainthood-either in themselves or in others.
(Ensign, November 1980, p. 15.)

Jesus called upon us to be "perfect even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." (Matt. 5:48.) Would a Lord who cannot lie taunt us with any possibility that is

(Ensign, November 1980, p. 15.)

Jesus called upon us to be "perfect even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." (Matt. 5:48.) Would a Lord who cannot lie taunt us with any possibility that is
irrevocably out of our reach? With God's helping grace, Moroni promised, we can become "holy, without spot." (Moro. 10:33.) (Notwithstanding My Weakness, p.
28.)

There are no shortcuts to celestialness. But once the basic strategic commitments are made, the tactical problems are solvable. (That My Family Should Partake, p. 4.)

The gospel suggests to us ultimate perfection, but eternal progression rests on the assumption of gradual but regular improvement in our lives. In the city of Enoch the
near perfection of this people occurred "in process of time" over many, many years. This is also the case with us. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 71.)

Lest we be too intimidated about the plan of salvation's eventual emphasis on our becoming perfect, as the Father and Jesus are, it is well to keep in mind that the word
perfect emphasizes that one canbecome "finished" and "fully developed" (see Matt. 5:48; 3 Ne. 12:48; 27:27; Eph. 4:13). It thus emphasizes the "completeness" and
wholeness essential to full happiness, including, of course, the glorious resurrection and joyous exaltation. However, instead of resulting in a democratic sameness
among all resurrected people in each and every respect, God's plan clearly accepts that there will be variations of attainment. These will reflect how well we lived in
mortality and to what extent we developed our individual possibilities. (Lord, Increase Our Faith, pp. 44-45.)

Though imperfect, an improving person can actually know that the course of his life is generally acceptable to the Lord despite there being much distance yet to be
covered. (Men and Women of Christ, p. 23.)

We may see the imperfections in leaders in the Church. How we react to these manifestations of mortality is the key to our salvation-not theirs! (All These Things Shall
Give Thee Experience, p. 112.)

The more the adversary can get us to react to each other's imperfections, the more he can deflect us from perfect principles. (We Talk of Christ, We Rejoice in Christ,
p. 33.)

There is a difference between stumbling along the pathway to perfection even as we display our humanness, and wandering about aimlessly in a desert of despair and
disbelief. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 127.)

Permissiveness

A society which finally permits anything will eventually lose everything! (Ensign, May 1995, p. 67.)

Unless checked, permissiveness, by the end of its journey, will cause humanity to stare in mute disbelief at its awful consequences. (Ensign, May 1996, p. 68.)

The decade of the 1960s in America was one in which too many adults, insecure and uncertain, not only gave way to the permissive pressures of some in the "rising
generation" [see 3 Ne. 1:29-30] but then actually adopted the lower lifestyle so promoted. (Plain and Precious Things, pp. 71-72.)

Kindness never takes the form of permissiveness. (Even As I Am, p. 86.)

Perseverance

When armies have been routed, it has often been because of combinations of false rumors and the feeling that everyone else has deserted his post, so "Why not me?"
It's hard on those who stay at their post but tragic for those who desert or defect. So much of the serious work of salvation consists of reaching those lost battalions
who have hung on even though surrounded. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 90.)

Even yesterday's spiritual experience does not guarantee us against tomorrow's relapse. Persistence thus matters greatly. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 122.)

Perspective

One day all our temporary designations, locations, and vocations will shrink in their significance when bathed in the candlepower of Kolob's brighter and perfect day.
Meanwhile, however, spiritual perspective is precious. ("Out of the Best Faculty," p. 33.)

An economic depression would be grim, but it would not change the reality of immortality. The inevitability of the Second Coming is not affected by the unpredictability
of the stock market. Political despots make this world very ugly, but they cannot touch that better world to come. A case of cancer does not cancel the promises of the
temple endowment. Thus the things of which we can be most certain are also those things which matter most. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 57.)

Looking through the lens of gospel perspective, we see more clearly what life is really all about. In considering, for instance, the great reconciliation of Jacob and Esau
with their caravans in the desert, none of us would be much interested in reviewing the invoices of the gifts offered or exchanged. It was their reconciliation that
mattered! ("Out of the Best Faculty," p. 48.)

Even something as small as a man's thumb, when held very near the eye, can blind him to the very large sun. Yet the sun is still there. Blindness is brought upon the man
by himself. When we draw other things too close, placing them first, we obscure our vision of heaven. (Of One Heart, p. 19.)

What is most to be focused on-the fact that Peter walked briefly on the water or that he did not continue? Has any other mortal so walked, even that briefly? (Ensign,
May 1982, p. 38.)

In those moments when we feel the pain which is a necessary part of the plan of happiness, we can remember that there was an ancient time when that plan was first
unveiled. Then the perceptive among us voted not secretly, but audibly-by shouting for joy! (See Job 38:7.) Let us not go back on those feelings now-for we saw more
clearly then what we are experiencing now! (Ensign, November 1982, p. 68.)

As to scale, what occurred in the gardens of Eden and Gethsemane is of enormous significance to all mankind, but it was inversely proportioned to the tiny plots of
earth on which those eternity-shaping dramas were played out! (Ensign, November 1984, p. 8.)

One-dimensional man with only a one-dimensional view of the world will surely focus upon the cares of the world, yielding to the things of the moment. (Ensign,
November 1985, p. 17.)

The worldly appetites are, in a sense, like secularism's manna, a day-to-day thing, seldom preserved overnight. Instead, prophets urge the long view of the individual's
eternal self-interest. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 61.)

If we have a sense of proportion here and now, our portion hereafter will be significantly larger. (Even As I Am, p. 102.)

This life's temporal lens distorts. The things of the moment are grossly magnified, and the things of eternity are blurred or diminished. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 26.)

Never let the needs of now crowd out the considerations of eternity. (Ensign, May 1976, p. 26.)

How can we expect to enjoy eternally that which we neglect in mortality? (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 39)

The remedies for people who stumble because they feel unvalued, unloved, unused, unheeded, and unappreciated include coming to know about God's love and
coming to see the disappointments of the day in the context of the blessings of eternity and God's plan of happiness. It is vital for one to know that life's real difficulties
are "but for a small moment" and thereby to trust in God's timing (see D&C 122:4; 2 Cor. 4:17). (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 87.)

We misread and misuse life-except with this plain and precious perspective of the gospel, which puts the things of the world in their lesser places. Then, on that
essentially unchanging mortal stage, we can see things for what they really are, such as the demanding cadence called for by the cares of the world. Like birds and
animals performing some inborn ritual, amusing to everyone but the participants, these maneuverings of materialism would be comedy if they were not tragedy. So
would the posturings as to power and the thirsty seeking of the praise of the world. The ploys are so transparent when seen in the gospel's light. (Ensign, November
1986, p. 54.)

Without enduring the in-your-face, personal experiences in the here and now of this life, how useful will we be to Him in the there and then as He continues the "one
eternal round" of His grand work and glory (see 1 Ne. 10:19; Moses 1:39)? Thus how could immortality be fully appreciated without an earnest sense of proportion
and perspective. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 7.)

A mere hundred years from now today's seeming deprivations and tribulations will not matter unless we let them matter too much now! A thousand years from now, for
instance, today's serious physical ailment will be but a fleeting memory. A million years from now, those who today worry and are anguished because they are
unmarried will, if they are faithful, have smiles of satisfaction on their faces in the midst of a vast convocation of their posterity. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 28.)

Unfortunately, the morning after does not occur the day before. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 77.)

Knowing the truth about those things that really matter frees us from our inhibiting and finite perspective in the same way that turning the light on in an otherwise
darkened room can keep us from stubbing toes and breaking furniture. (The Smallest Part, p. 6.)

Eternal perspective does not say to us to be inattentive to things like the dollar crises, floods, poverty, law and order, and borders-for these contemporary challenges
represent, in fact, some of the interpersonal moral issues and challenges to our agency and to our ability to apply the gospel by assisting others. (The Smallest Part, p.
28.)

Perspective would have helped those who worked on the tower of Babel, no doubt an exciting undertaking for a time. Because it was so fatally flawed, we can't be
sure who was the more lightheaded-the hod carriers (as the tower's altitude increased) or the architects who designed it! (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 81.)

Without the perspective of a purposeful mortality and also of long-standing, even premortal, covenants, Israel's wanderings make of Sinai a senseless sojourn.
However, Israel's wandering is actually a type for our mortal state and God's plans for us. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 38.)

As in the case of the episode of the golden calf, the view from the desert floor is very different from that atop Mount Sinai. Perspective makes such an enormous
difference. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 65.)

People who look beyond the mark are clearly not without sight. They can see, but it is what they choose to look at (or for) that causes a lack of vision. It might be
likened to anxiously watching a traffic light two intersections away and missing an oncoming truck in our own intersection; or a basketball player taking his eyes off the
basket and missing an easy layup because he glances at a hotdog vendor in the stands; or the blindness of the British fortifying Singapore prior to World War II with
mighty guns firing only seaward as the Japanese came by land; or those who were too busy staring in search of a political liberator and missed the Messiah. (Things As
They Really Are, p. 54.)

The Martha-like things chosen are not always the bad part- merely lesser choices. The Savior did not say that the cares of the world were not cares. But this world will
pass away, and its cares with it. The things really worth caring about will still be around to be cared about forever. The other things are like last week's firewood, useful
to warm a needed meal, which, in turn, helped to sustain the body. But to what end? Only His gospel gives us ultimate reasons. Without such perspective, we would be
like astronomers who have never seen the stars. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 30.)

Pessimism

Neither provincialism nor pessimism permits a person to see himself, life, or the universe as these things "really are" and "as they really will be" (Jacob 4:13). ("But for a
Small Moment", p. 102.)

Life, or any particular situation, if viewed only through the peephole of pessimism, presents a puzzling or discouraging picture indeed. Instead of wonder, awe, and
pattern, which the Christian sees, the disciples of despair disclaim any knowledge of a "big picture" of life in which "all things denote there is a God." The degree of
divine disclosure-from peephole to a picture window view of things-is up to us. (The Smallest Part, p. 12.)

Naive optimism and pervasive pessimism are both to be avoided. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 98.)

Plan of Salvation

How can we truly understand who we are unless we know who we were and what we have the power to become? How can there be real identity without real history?
How can one understand his tiny, individual plot without knowing, even a little, about Father's grand, galactic plans? (Ensign, May 1986, p. 35.)

Without an understanding of the plan of salvation, including our premortal existence and the judgment and the resurrection, trying to make sense of this life by itself
would be like seeing only the second act of a three-act play, while wondering-does it make any sense; who is the director; what is the purpose of it all? We cannot fully
understand this act without the others, and particularly the trials and suffering in this second act. Failure, therefore, to understand God's plan of salvation can needlessly
diminish faith in Him and in His purposes. (Talk given January 8, 1996.)

The very word plan confirms God's paternal purpose, a realization so desperately needed by the confused and despairing on the world's stage. (Ensign, May 1984, p.
21.)

Conversationally, we reference God's great design almost too casually at times; we even sketch its rude outlines on chalkboards and paper as if it were the floor plan
for an addition to one's house. However, when we really take time to ponder the Plan, it is breathtaking and overpowering! Indeed, I, for one, cannot decide which
creates in me the most awe-its very vastness or its intricate, individualized detail. ("'Thanks Be to God.'")

The Lord's plan of salvation is not a set of floor plans for a new house that we as clients can modify or reject. The Architect is not our employee, but our Host, even the
Lord of Hosts; He is not only our Landlord, He is also our Lord! (Even As I Am, p. 9.)

This plan constitutes the mother lode of meaning and can cradle us, conceptually, amid any concern. Its truths and perspectives permit us to distinguish between a great
book and mere want ads, between vengeance and justice, rage and righteous indignation, and pleasure and happiness. (Ensign, May 1984, p. 22.)

Even with all of its interior consistency the plan cannot bring true happiness to anyone whose life is grossly inconsistent with its standards. It cannot fully enfold him who
is too worried about being taken in. It has no place of honor for one too concerned with losing his place in the secular synagogue. (See John 12:42-43.) (Ensign, May
1984, p. 22.)

The plan always points the way, but does not always smooth the way, since individual development requires an "opposition in all things." (2 Ne. 2:11.) (Ensign, May
1984, p. 22.)

Truly, of all the errors mortals could make, God's plan of salvation is the wrong thing to be wrong about! No error could be more enormous or more everlasting in its
consequences! (Ensign, May 1984, p. 22.)

God's plan is not something to be deduced by logic alone, nor is human experience deep enough or long enough to inform us adequately. It requires revelation from
God. (Ensign, November 1986, p. 53.)

It does no violence even to our frail human logic to observe that there cannot be a grand plan of salvation for all mankind, unless there is also a plan for each individual.
The salvational sum will reflect all its parts. ("Meeting the Challenges of Today," p. 153.)

If we criticize God or are unduly miffed over sufferings and tribulation, we are really criticizing the Planner for implementing the very plan we once approved,
premortally (see Job 38:4, 7). Granted, we don't now remember the actual approval. But not remembering is actually part of the plan! (That Ye May Believe, p. 10.)

Knowledge of certain future things could affect the way in which we use our agency now. Thus, the future would overhang and impose itself unduly upon the present.
This would be counterproductive so far as the developmental purposes of the plan of salvation are concerned. (We Talk of Christ, We Rejoice in Christ, p. 127.)

Having so very long ago set in motion His plan of salvation, God will not revise the structure or the schedule of this second estate just because you and I have a bad
day. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 11.)

Having faith in the Father's macro plan of salvation includes making allowance for His micro plans as well. (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 38.)

Where would we be if, instead of focusing on bringing "to pass the immortality and eternal life of man," God were distracted by self-centeredness? In fact, God has
described what His work is, and does nothing save it be for the benefit of man (see Moses 1:39;2 1 Ne. 26:24). Where would we be, too, if our Father in Heaven
experienced people fatigue and we were merely His annoying posterity who kept Him from doing what He really wanted to do? (Lord, Increase Our Faith, pp. 38-39.)

Upon arriving at the foreseen geographical destination, President Brigham Young confirmed, "This is the place!" Of God's plan of salvation with its developmental
destination, it can be confirmed, "This is the process!" (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 126.)

We can and will be tried tactically, but this can occur without our calling into question the whole strategy of God's plan of salvation. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 127.)

Political Correctness

The more what is politically correct seeks to replace what God has declared correct, the more ineffective approaches to human problems there will be. (Ensign, May
1996, p. 68.)

One can cater to mortal constituencies but lose the support of the one Elector who matters! (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 5.)

The trendy, self-congratulating multitudes [in the great and spacious building] were "politically correct" as they unmeekly mocked and pointed at those who clung to the
gospel's iron rod. A few whose hands had once grasped the iron rod ended up in the great and spacious building pointing fingers of scorn at former friends. Strange as
it seems, the scriptures do not indicate that these individuals let go of the iron rod for any objective reason, or becausethey were in truth intellectually persuaded by the
view of those in the great and spacious building. They were simply ashamed and embarrassed to be separated from the worldy multitudes, whose contempt they would
not endure. (On Becoming a Disciple-Scholar,.. p. 18.)

Pornography

The spreading oil slick of pornography carries with it terrible consequences such as bizarre and oppressive sexual behavior, child and spouse abuse, and ultimately a
loss of the capacity to love. Unfortunately there is no "superfund" available to underwrite the cleanup of this destructive ooze. In fact, the funding flows in just the
opposite direction, as that ancient cartel of lust and greed has significant sway once again. Meanwhile those coated in the awful ooze of pornography are effectively
beached, and on filthy shores. Spiritually speaking, they can never take wing again until the ooze is finally cleaned off-"every whit"! (That Ye May Believe, p. 99.)

Pornography especially victimizes women and children. Why then the inordinate preoccupation with its protection? Pornography is better protected than citizens on the
streets! (Ensign, May 1993,...p. 77.)

It is clear in our time that lust and greed, that ancient alliance, have re-formed and commercialized around pornography, trying to clothe themselves in the First
Amendment and making it difficult to deal with them. (We Talk of Christ, We Rejoice in Christ, p. 98.)

Possessions

Mortal property rights have often been either non-existent, revoked, or easily lost, but this is not so with regard to a partly earned, partly grace-provided title to one of
the many mansions in Heavenly Father's abode. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 53.)

We are often overly concerned with our acquiring or holding turf when, in fact, we are urged instead to let go of the things of the world. Any possessiveness for the
things of this world is a wasted effort, for it is obviously on a collision course with reality. One's claims to turf will have no legal status in the kingdom of heaven anyway.
It is, for example, our degree of attained meekness or patience-not our title to property or position-that will "rise with us in the resurrection" and will live on. (Even As I
Am, p. 63.)

Our personal possessions and our material blessings are really not ours, so what we sometimes regard as a sacrifice was given to us, anyway. (That Ye May Believe, p.
4.)

Potential

The Lord loves each of us too much to merely let us go on being what we now are, for he knows what we have the possibility to become! ("'In Him All Things Hold
Together,'" p. 107.)

Jesus knows the sheep of His fold not only for what they now are but also for what they have the power to become. (Even As I Am, p. 78.)

When a sudden, stabbing light exposes the gap between what we are and what we think we are, can we, like Peter, let that light be a healing laser? (Men and Women
of Christ, p. 66.)

Praise

"Deserved specific praise" is the ingredient of fellowship, of commending Christians. ("Insights from My Life," p. 191.)

Whether in the work place, around the fireplace, or in community service-we can all do something else which is simple but powerful. Isaiah spoke of providing the
"garment of praise." (Isa. 61:3.) Of course, there are times in rendering humanitarian service when we need to give an actual, physical cloak, but, most often, those with
whom most of us work need material clothing less than the "garment of praise." ("Successful Leadership in Organizations, Communities and Families.")

Those who have enough bread may still shiver for recognition and yearn for the succor of deserved commendation. ("King Benjamin's Sermon: A Manual for
Discipleship.")

Those who are breathless from going the second mile need deserved praise just as the fallen need to be lifted up. (Ensign, November 1976, p. 14.)

We should without being artificial, regularly give deserved, specific praise. One of the reasons for doing this is that we are all so very conscious of our shortcomings that
it takes a persistent pattern of appreciation to finally penetrate. We are so certain, sometimes,we do not really have a particular skill or attribute that we severely
discount praise. One of the reasons we need regular praise from "outside auditors" is to offset the low level of self-acknowledgment most of us have. Flattery is a form
of hypocrisy to be avoided, but in overreacting to it, some close the door to commendation. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 78.)

Let us in our ministry be nondiscriminatory in the giving of commendation. True, he who is downspirited needs to be lifted up. True, those who are fledglings in the faith
may need extra encouragement and deserved, specific praise. But meanwhile, let us not forget the often unnoticed, faithful veterans, lest, like the son who stayed loyally
at home and saw the banquet and benefactions given to the prodigal son, the faithful wonder if they are truly appreciated. Let us not assume that another has no need of
commendation. Let us give it even if the other does not seem to need it, for we need to give commendation in any event. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience,
p. 89.)

We are not wise enough to know when the need for deserved commendation ceases, if it ever does. But it is significant that our Father commended his Son so openly!
Surely on our finite mortal scale of action we cannot dispense with the giving of deserved commendation as a regular part of our style of helping and communicating!
(The Smallest Part, p. 72.)

Commending communications ought to flow from us without too much concern with "the balance of trade." (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 79.)

The metabolism of meekness requires very little praise or commendation, of which there is usually such a shortage anyway. Otherwise, the sponge of selfishness quickly
soaks up everything in sight, including praise intended for others. (Meek and Lowly, p. 6.)

So often we can serve by bathing the wounded and bruised egos of others in the warm waters of deserved commendation. (All These Things Shall Give Thee
Experience, p. 55.)

Let us never unwittingly turn others in the direction of the praise of the world merely because they are so starved for the praise of the righteous! (All These Things Shall
Give Thee Experience, pp. 89-90.)

We must not retire into our vault and count the coins of commendation. The rule should be humble appreciation for deserved praise, but not to savor praise.

Cuddling compliments is as dangerous as fondling failures, for neither gives us a true picture of ourselves. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 75.)

Prayer

Prayer is that point where the agency of man meets the omniscience of God, and it is where time melts as it touches eternity. (All These Things Shall Give Thee
Experience, p. 100.)

We cannot, for the purposes of real prayer, hurriedly dress our words and attitudes in tuxedos when our shabby life is in rags. More than we realize, being honest with
God in our prayers helps us to be more honest with ourselves. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 96.)

Our glimpse of Gethsemane should teach us that all prayers are petitions! (Ensign, May 1976, p. 26.)

Genuine faith makes increasing allowance for individual tutorials. In view of these tutorials, God cannot respond affirmatively to all of our petitions with an unbroken
chain of "yeses." This would assume that all of our petitions are for that "which is right" and are spiritually "expedient." (3 Ne. 18:20; D&C 18:18; 88:64) No petition is
so wise! Paul even acknowledged that we sometimes "know not what we should pray for as we ought." (Rom. 8:26; see also D&C 46:30.) (Ensign, May 1991, p. 90.)

Unlike us, God has no restrictive office hours. (Ensign, November 1991, p. 31.)

We may at times, if we are not careful, try to pray away pain or what seems like an impending tragedy, but which is, in reality, an opportunity. We must do as Jesus did
in that respect-also preface our prayers by saying, "If it be possible," let the trial pass from us-by saying, "Nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt," and bowing in a
sense of serenity to our Father in Heaven's wisdom, because at times God will not be able to let us pass by a trial or a challenge. If we were allowed to bypass certain
trials, everything that had gone on up to that moment in our lives would be wiped out. It is because he loves us that at times he will not intercede as we may wish him to.
That, too, we learn from Gethsemane and from Calvary. ("But for a Small Moment," p. 445.)

Petitioning in prayer has taught me that the vault of heaven, with all its blessings, is to be opened only by a combination lock: one tumbler falls when there is faith, a
second when there is personal righteousness, and the third and final tumbler falls only when what is sought is (in God's judgment, not ours) "right" for us. Sometimes we
pound on the vault door for something we want very much, in faith, in reasonable righteousness, and wonder why the door does not open. We would be very spoiled
children if that vault door opened any more easily than it does now. I can tell, looking back,that God truly loves me by the petitions that, in his perfect wisdom and love,
he has refused to grant me. Our rejected petitions tell us not only much about ourselves, but also much about our flawless Father. ("Insights from My Life," p. 200.)

We are often not only too slow to get on our knees but too quick to rise from them, as if prayer involved physical calisthenics. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 20.)

Some have difficulty with the reality that prayers are petitions even though God knows all and loves all anyway. True, we are not informing God, but we are informing
ourselves by reverently working through our real concerns and our real priorities and by listening to the Spirit. For us merely to say, ritualistically, "Thy will be done"
would not be real petitionary prayer. This would involve no genuine working through of our own feelings. There would be no experience in agonizing, in choosing, and
also in submitting. (That Ye May Believe, p. 178.)

One can pray and yet not really pray. Prayers can be routinized and made very superficial. When this happens, there is very little communication and very little growth.
Yet, given the times in which we live, improving our prayers should be one of our deepest desires if we are genuinely serious about growing spiritually. (All These
Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 91.)

So very much of pure prayer seems to be the process of first discovering, rather than requesting, the will of our Father in heaven and then aligning ourselves therewith.
(All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 93.)

Neither the pure City of Enoch nor pure prayers are arrived at in a day! (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 95.)

Prayer that is too conscious of itself is not yet really praying. What is needed by us all are feelings of adoration that produce a mental posture of contemplation with
more meditation and less premeditation. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 96.)

We sometimes find ourselves praying for others when we should be doing things for them. Prayers are not to be a substitute for service, but a spur thereto. (All These
Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 97.)

How often have you and I in our provincialism prayed to see ahead and, mercifully, been refused, lest our view of the present be blurred? How many times have we
been blessed by not having our prayers answered, at least according to the specifications set forth in our petitions? (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 8.)

Premortality

We will not be strangers in the City of God. We were there before, when the morning stars sang together and the sons of God shouted for joy at the prospects of this
stern but necessary mortal existence. (See Job 38:4-7.) What we sang then was doubtless an anthem of praise far greater than the "Hallelujah Chorus," more glorious
than Moses' and Israel's song after crossing the Red Sea. (See Ex. 15:1-2.) (Ensign, May 1986, p. 36.)

Some of our present circumstances may reflect previous agreements, now forgotten, but once freely made. (Ensign, May 1984, p. 22.)

One day we will understand fully how complete our commitment was in our first estate in accepting the very conditions of challengein our second estate about which we
sometimes complain in this school of stress. Our collective and personal premortal promises will then be laid clearly before us. ("Taking Up the Cross," p. 253.)

In some of those precious and personal moments of deep discovery, there will be a sudden surge of recognition of an immortal insight, a doctrinal dj vu. We will
sometimes experience a flash from the mirror of memory that beckons us forward toward a far horizon. And when of great truths we can come to say "I know," that
powerful spiritual witness may also carry with it the sense of our having known before. With rediscovery, what we are really saying is, "I know-again!" No wonder that,

powerful spiritual witness may also carry with it the sense of our having known before. With rediscovery, what we are really saying is, "I know-again!" No wonder that,
so often, real teaching is mere reminding. ("Meeting the Challenges of Today," p. 156.)

Genes and environment by themselves will never provide an adequate explanation for human differences because there is a third factor in the equation of this life: all that
occurred before we came here. The Gospel makes it clear that we came to earth trailing traits from our lengthy and extensive experience in the premortal existence. (A
Time to Choose, p. 37.)

To what degree we were permitted, before coming here, to see all the outcomes and the risks of mortality, such as war and poverty, we presently know not. A just
God surely would have let us understand sufficiently about that upon which we are soon to embark. However, with whatever measure of understanding we then had,
some "shouted for joy," a stirring reaction that ought to tell us enough in terms of our perceptions then, when we had some added perspective. (Even As I Am, p. 107.)

Blessed with our knowledge of premortal experience, life is largely what we choose to make of it and of our inborn talents. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 47.)

Happily, for what we know of this precious doctrine [of premortality] we are not dependent on research-but on revelation! ("But for a Small Moment", p. 81.)

Present

The past of each of us is now inflexible. We need to concentrate on what has been called "the holy present," for now is sacred; we never really live in the future. The
holy gift of life always takes the form of now. (Ensign, November 1974, p. 13.)

[A] trap to be avoided is the tendency we have-rather humanly, rather understandably-to get ourselves caught in peering through the prism of the present and then
distorting our perspective about things. Time is of this world; it is not of eternity. We can, if we are not careful, feel the pressures of time and see things in a distorted
way. How important it is that we see things as much as possible through the lens of the gospel with its eternal perspectives. ("But for a Small Moment," pp. 453-54.)

Significantly, those who look forward to a next and better world are usually "anxiously engaged" in improving this one, for they "always abound in good works" (D&C
58:27; Alma 7:24). (Ensign, November 1994, p. 35.)

We should not let the gray mists of the moment obscure the bright promises and prospects of eternity. (Even As I Am, p. 99.)

Pride

Do not pride and wickedness go hand-in-hand? For as surely as the proud elevate themselves in their own eyes, their neighbors disappear from view. The proud not
only fail to look up to God, but the proud look down, if they look at all, on their neighbors. (Look Back at Sodom, p. 8.)

Pride keeps repentance from even starting or continuing. Some fail because they are more concerned with the preservation of their public image than with having
Christ's image in their countenances! (Alma 5:14.) Pride prefers cheap repentance, paid for with shallow sorrow. (Ensign, November 1991, p. 31.)

Just as meekness is in all our virtues, so is pride in all our sins. ("'Meek and Lowly,'" p. 57.)

Do not let yesterday hold tomorrow hostage! Walk away from your investment in the penny stock of pride; it never pays dividends. (Ensign, May 1982, p. 39.)

The Father, ever anxious that all be free to choose, gave Lucifer opportunity to campaign. "Behold, here am I, send me, I will be thy son, and I will redeem all mankind,
that one soul shall not be lost, and surely I will do it, wherefore give me thine honor" (Moses 4:1; see also Abr. 3:27; Isa. 6:8). Note the ego dripping from only three
lines: two me's and four I 's. Those vertical pronouns are usually accompanied by unbending knees. (Ensign, November 1987, p. 32.)

Though on an infinitely smaller scale, when each man insists on walking in his own way, he is but mirroring our ego-saturatedbrother in the premortal world who wanted
things his own way. In some twisted contemporary thinking there is likewise a connection between glory and "my way." In any case, to go on insisting on "my way"
instead of the way is to remain unrescued and unhappy. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 46.)

Cutting truth does hurt, but its lancing can drain the pustules of pride. (Ensign, November 1989, p. 82.)

The men and women of Christ magnify their callings without magnifying themselves. Whereas the natural man says "Worship me" and "Give me thine power," the men
and women of Christ seek to exercise power by long-suffering and unfeigned love. (See Moses 1:12; 4:3; D&C 121:41.) (Ensign, November 1990, p. 16.)

A person's small puffs of pride are best blown away by the breeze of brotherhood; left alone, these become enlarged and dark thunderclouds which drench all round
about. (Of One Heart, p. 15.)

Bruising as the tumble off the peak of pride is, it may be necessary. Even then, one must be careful not to let despair continue the descent into the swamp of self-pity.
(Meek and Lowly, p. 58.)

The perils of "puffery" are especially real when combined with iniquity. Those who are puffed up need constantly to be reinflated, hence the tendency of some to "play
to the galleries," including by way of criticism of the kingdom. (Meek and Lowly, p. 85.)

In their resentment, those who worry that someone will "rule over" them rationalize their resistance to repentance. They resist because they are already well along in
self-pleasing. Ironically, even as they fret about being ruled over, they are actually being ruled over by an aristocracy of appetites or by the stern sovereignty of
selfishness. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 65.)

It is possible to have illegitimate pride in a legitimate role or in a deserved reputation. Such pride must go, too, for we are servants of Him who lived His unique life as a
person of "no reputation" (Philip. 2:7). ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 93.)

Problems

Just as some people lose the same twenty pounds of weight every year, so some of us are always solving the same problem-over and over again. How weary one can

Problems

Just as some people lose the same twenty pounds of weight every year, so some of us are always solving the same problem-over and over again. How weary one can
get just running in place! (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 111.)

Procrastination

Indeed, one of the most cruel games anyone can play with self is the "not yet" game-hoping to sin just a bit more before ceasing; to enjoy the praise of the world a little
longer before turning away from the applause; to win just once more in the wearing sweepstakes of materialism; to be chaste, but not yet; to be good neighbors, but not
now. (Ensign, November 1974, p. 13.)

One can play upon the harpstrings of hesitations and reservations just so long, and then one faces that special moment-a moment when what has been sensed, mutely,
suddenly finds voice and cries out with tears, "Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief." (Mark 9:24.) (Ensign, November 1974, p. 13.)

Profanity

[God] does not want us to take His name in vain, but this is because of what happens to us when we do. Our profanity cannot diminish His Godhood, His love, His
omnipotence, or His omniscience. But our profanity does damage us and can damage us profoundly. (Sermons Not Spoken, p. 85.)

Programs

Often in the confusion of means and ends, we fail to see that programs and activities are helps, not ends in themselves, so far as developing the eternal attributes and
everlasting skills are concerned. The character that can be developed by Scouting will be there in the next world, long after one has any need to make fire without
matches. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 111.)

Let us not mistake program scaffolding for substance. (Ensign, November 1982, p. 68.)

Programs such as the Church's current recreation programs are aids and helps. These clearly provide needed fellowship, physical exercise, cultural development,
opportunities for missionary work, and moments of needed recognition for individuals. However, Abraham and those about him apparently did not have an athletic
program. We have it now and it is helpful. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 19.)

Some programs and practices in the Church today are important aids but have not been constant necessities in every other age. Discerning disciples understand this.
(Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 20.)

The Church is not a democracy that responds to its constituents. We do not make demands of the Lord. Of course, the Church and its leaders at all levels should be
sensitive to conditions in the Church-if for no other reason than the keeping of the second commandment-but, most of all, as shepherds of the flock. But, as we have so
sadly learned in recent secular and political history, a preferential program is seldom the "cure" for a basic need. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 53.)

The Church seeks to avoid the mistakes of some secular governments that establish a program for every need and a department for every constituency. What is needed
is more good families and neighbors and fewer programs. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 65.)

A few in the Church are needlessly laden with programmed hyperactivity. They unwisely and unnecessarily exceed their strength and means, running faster than they are
able (see D&C 10:4; Mosiah 4:27). Their fatiguing, Martha-like anxiety should yield more often to a Mary-like sense of proportion about what matters most; then the
good part will not be taken from them (see Luke 10:41-42). (Men and Women of Christ, p. 3.)

Progression

The scriptures are like a developmental display window through which we can see gradual growth-along with this vital lesson: it is direction first, then velocity! (Ensign,
November 1976, p. 13.)

Thoughtless haste and spurts of service are not what is desired, for such naivet is like the businessman who confuses volume with profit. (Notwithstanding My
Weakness, p. 3.)

The scriptural advice, "Do not run faster or labor more than you have strength" (D&C 10:4) suggests paced progress, much as God used seven creative periods in
preparing man and this earth. There is a difference, therefore, between being "anxiously engaged" and being over-anxious. (Ensign, November 1976, pp. 12-13.)

Following celestial road signs while in telestial traffic jams is not easy, especially when our destination involves not just moving next door-or even across town. (Ensign,
November 1976, p. 12.)

Men finally climbed Mount Everest, not by standing at its base in consuming awe but by shouldering their packs and by placing one foot in front of another. Feet are
made to move forward-not backward! (Ensign, November 1976, p. 14.)

It does little good to speak and write brilliantly about a concept such as "eternal progression" if we are unconcerned with daily improvement. ("A More Excellent Way",
p. 30.)

Given our weaknesses paced progress is essential, much as God used six measured and orderly creative periods (followed by respite) in preparing man and this earth.
There is a difference, therefore, between being steadily and effectively or "anxiously" engaged, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, being frantically engaged one
moment and being passive and detached the next. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 3.)

Pace is so essential to personal progress lest we magnify our weaknesses instead of our callings. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 7.)

We need not be perpetual motion machines-merely forward motion machines. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 112.)

It is exceedingly important for members of the Church to get experience following the prophets in little things, so that they can follow in large matters. By following the
prophets in fair weather we become familiar with their cadence, so that we can follow them in stormy times too, for then both our reflexes and our experience will need
to combine to help us; the stresses will be so very real. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 102.)

Our relationship to living prophets is not one in which their sayings are a smorgasbord from which we may take only that which pleases us. We are to partake of all that
is placed before us, including the spinach, and to leave a clean plate! (Things As They Really Are, p. 74.)

Throughout scriptural history, we see recurring efforts to demean prophets in order to dismiss them-to label them in order to diminish them. Mostly, however, they are
simply ignored by their contemporaries and by secular history. (Ensign, November 1984, p. 10.)

No wonder the prophets are repetitious in their warnings. After all, if one were permitted only a few surviving lines to family, friends, and posterity, those might be
headlines. (Ensign, November 1986, p. 54.)

In the months and years ahead, events will require of each member [of the Church] that he or she decide whether or not he or she will follow the First Presidency.
Members will find it more difficult to halt longer between two opinions (see 1 Kgs. 18:21). Not being ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ includes not being ashamed
of the prophets of Jesus Christ. ("Meeting the Challenges of Today," p. 149.)

The true believer is growing in his patience, including being patient in following the living prophets. He knows that trying to get ahead of the Brethren is a sure way of
falling behind. ("'True Believers in Christ,'" p. 138.)

Prophets are not just for following in the Sinai or on a westward journey. ("Grounded, Rooted, Established, and Settled," p. 16.)

We have obligations to the Lord's prophets, past and present, which include being fair, posthumously or presently, concerning their words. The "choice seer," Joseph,
reminded the Church in an epistle (December 1838) from jail that, "our light speeches from time to time have nothing to do with the fixed principle of our hearts."
Should we not distinguish between the utterances of the moment and considered opinions? Do not all of us wish for that same understanding on the part of our friends,
hoping they, "with the breath of kindness," will "blow the chaff away?" ("'A Choice Seer,'" p. 120.)

The tendency to rely on too small a sample and to use the lazy shorthand way of assessing prophets is present today, as if driving repeatedly through a university
campus were knowing a university. But that which is familiar is not necessarily always understood. (Sermons Not Spoken, p. 40.)

The absence of a commanding physical presence-or, in modern political terms, the absence of charisma-can cause people to disregard or dismiss one actually sent of
God, even though the substance of the individual or his message is exceedingly important. A pseudo-sophisticated society is especially likely to dismiss someone who
does not have impeccable educational credentials. Impressive as Peter and John were, they were still labeled unlearned and ignorant men. [See Acts 4:13. (Sermons
Not Spoken, p. 45.)

The lifespans of planets, as well as prophets, are known to God. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 13.)

We can scarcely be in tune with God if we are not in harmony with His prophets. We are not likely to hear God's instructions to us as we pray if we neglect the counsel
of His leaders. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 100.)

Among the requirements that God has laid upon us is to pay heed to His living prophets. In our dispensation this has been described as "following the Brethren." It is a
dimension of obedience that has been difficult for some in every dispensation. It will be particularly hard in ours, the final dispensation. (All These Things Shall Give
Thee Experience, p. 101.)

To use the supposed errors of others, including those of the Brethren, as an excuse for our lessened devotion is a most grave error! All of us are in the process of
becoming-including prophets and General Authorities. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 105.)

There will be times when we follow the prophets even as they are in the very act of obedience themselves; they will not, in fact, always be able to explain to us why
they are doing what they are doing-much as Adam offered sacrifices without a full understanding of what underlay that special ritual. (Moses 5:6.) (All These Things
Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 115.)

The living prophets, if to some they seem monotonous, are simply reporting what they know from the living God. The fact that it is essentially the same message from
dispensation to dispensation merely confirms the truth of such utterances. We may grow tired of hearing that the earth is round, but our boredom will not change its
shape. (Things As They Really Are, pp. 38-39.)

If we believe in the living prophet, our sustaining faith will not die with a particular prophet but will be transferred to his successor. (Things As They Really Are, p. 71.)

The living prophet will always be in touch with eternity and, in a sense, will therefore stand outside time as he reflects God's will to a people who may be too much
caught up in the fashion or problems of any particular age. (Things As They Really Are, p. 76.)

The living prophets are not perfect men, but they live close to Him who is perfect. (Things As They Really Are, p. 77.)

Prophets are alerted to tiny trends that bode ill for mankind. Prophets, therefore, are the Lord's early-warning system: they both detect and decry at his direction. What
may seem to be a premature expression of prophetic concern is actually the early discovery of a difficulty that will later plague the people. (Things As They Really Are,
pp. 77-78.)

It is not enough to define the living prophet as merely the current prophet who is alive today, though that is correct enough. The living prophets were all close enough to
God (before they came here) to be chosen by him then, and they will be close to him in the eternities. Moreover, while their livingness includes such precious perpetuity,
even in this fleeting frame of time called mortality, these men live with a richness and in a depth that desensitized sinners do not and cannot know. (Things As They
Really Are, pp. 80-81.)

More divine data has been given to some prophets than others, but the "bottom line" is not the comparative candlepower given to each of the Lord's prophets; rather, it
is how, each time the light of heaven is focused, it shines upon the same basic truths! (Things As They Really Are, p. 100.)

Rationalizing

Rationalizing

Occasionally we see those who do something bad justify it on the grounds that thereby they can thereafter do some good: "If I can just make this deal or gain this office,
think of the position I will be in to do much good." This rationalizing might be called looking beyond Lucifer's shoulder-on to imagined possibilities. It is a very different
thing from saying, "Get thee behind me!" (See Matt. 16:23.) (Men and Women of Christ, p. 130.)

Realists

The true religionist is actually the ultimate realist, for he has a fully realistic view of man and the universe; he traffics in truths that are culminating and everlasting; he does
not focus on facts that fade with changing circumstances or data that dissolve under pressures of time and circumstance. (Things As They Really Are, p. 1.)

Regret

Recycling regrets [doesn't] change reality. Pawing through the past is not productive. Too much attention to what might have been actually gets in the way of what still
can be. ("Insights from My Life," p. 189.)

Since we all make mistakes, it is crucial that we not remain immobilized thereby. Otherwise we will find ourselves caught in a ritual of regret, as memory serves up
"instant replays." (That Ye May Believe, pp. 137-38.)

Relationships

We [should] admit that if we were to die today, we would be genuinely and deeply missed. Perhaps parliaments would not praise us, but no human circle is so small
that it does not touch another, and another. (Ensign, November 1976, p. 14.)

Our impact is less likely to emanate from the pulpit-more often it will occur in one-to-one relationships, or in small groups where we can have an impact on an
individual. ("A More Excellent Way", p. 74.)

We have an obligation to work out impasses as well as trespasses in interpersonal relationships. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 88.)

Taking the initiative and consulting in private are good not only for resolving trespasses in human relationships [see Matt. 18:15], but impasses, too. The withholding of
key communications can be even more serious than withholding one's material substance. Food and raiment can sometimes be supplied by others, but the needed
spiritual substance is often not available elsewhere. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 74.)

If one tends to regard others as functions and not as everlasting individual entities, he will seek as few lasting and obligating relationships as possible. Doing this,
ironically, ensures less and lesshappiness and even further deterioration in the total human environment. Yet, today, more and more people seek to travel through life
selfishly, as unencumbered and uncommitted as possible. (We Talk of Christ, We Rejoice in Christ, p. 74.)

Calmness conserves energy as well as relationships. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 115.)

Relativism

At times only a small, satanic breeze, now the winds of relativism have reached gale proportions. Over a period of several decades relativism has eroded ethics, public
and personal, has worn down the will of many, has contributed to a slackening sense of duty, civic and personal. The old mountains of individual morality have been
worn down. This erosion has left mankind in a sand-dune society, in a desert of disbelief, where there are no landmarks, no north, no east, no west, and no south.
There is only the dust of despair! (Deposition of a Disciple, pp. 79-80.)

As the Church spreads across the earth, so does Satan's dominion. Prophesied for our day are such things as wars, commotions, and distress of nations. These are not
all geophysical. Perhaps even more destructive is the ethical relativism that denies any spiritual order and rejects divine and fixed principles of right and wrong. This we
see reflected in a wholesale decline in moral standards and in the rapidly escalating incidence of cruelty, crime and corruption. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 18.)

Without utilizing fixed principles, confused mortals will find things very hard to fix. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 15.)

Relativism may be the disbeliever's defense, but it is the devil's offense. It involves the denial of the existence of absolute truths and, therefore, of an absolute truth giver,
God. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 79.)

Reflect, for instance, on how inoperative the Ten Commandments are in many lives. Today, killing, stealing, and bearing false witness still carry some social stigma and
legal sanction, but sanction is effectively gone regarding sexual immmorality, the Sabbath day, honoring fathers and mothers, and the taking of the name of the Lord in
vain. Some of this decline represents the bitter harvest of ethical relativism, the philosophy of choice of many, reflecting no fixed, divine truths but merely the mores of
the moment. No wonder Ortega Y. Gasset wisely warned, "If truth does not exist, relativism cannot take itself seriously." (Ensign, May 1994, p. 88.)

To assert that there is some way other than adherence to the divine standard that has come down to us through the centuries in our Judeo-Christian heritage is to
introduce the inevitable rationalization that relativism always brings: If infidelity is not really wrong per se, then why cannot every individual walk "in his own way,"
determining that which pleases him or her and that which gives sensual pleasure-even if it be child molestation or masochism? A nonmoral ground is no ground at all! A
pervert will be unimpressed by ethical relativism's norms. Besides, inner slackness finally dooms outer enforcement, for enforcement officials are not only dwarfed by
the enormity of their tasks, but also become less effective as the definition of crime becomes less and less legally and behaviorally clear. One has only to pause and
wonder about what the role of a vice squad would have been in Sodom and Gomorrah! (Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 96.)

Relevance

By living and sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ, we are doing the most relevant thing we can do by way of helping. (There are civic and other chores to be done, of
course.) Day in and day out, the gospel is the one thing that is most relevant, and we are to be of good cheer. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 98.)

There is such a thing as irrelevant relevance; for example, a tendency to be topical, to read only newspapers rather than books, to deal with tactical truths rather than
strategic truths. The unsteady follower who caroms from current cause to current cause will end up being a social cipher and very lonely much of the time. (A Time to

To be sure, we cannot, while here, entirely avoid contact with the obsolescent and the irrelevant; it is all around us. But one can be around irrelevancy without

strategic truths. The unsteady follower who caroms from current cause to current cause will end up being a social cipher and very lonely much of the time. (A Time to
Choose, p. 68.)

To be sure, we cannot, while here, entirely avoid contact with the obsolescent and the irrelevant; it is all around us. But one can be around irrelevancy without
becoming attached to it. Certainly we should not become preoccupied with obsolete things, yet we need not have a discontent with the paraphernalia of this
probationary estate. Yet to mistake mortal props for the real drama that is underway is a grave error to be avoided. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 12.)

Religion

It is clear that the dispersion, diffusion, and distortion of gospel truths has left fragments of the faith in various religions and cultures throughout the world. Many see in
this an attempt by man to make his own god and religion in the absence of real ones. Rather than such similarities being evidence against the existence of God, however,
these refracted truths bear witness of the initial wholeness which existed in the beginning with Adam. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 20.)

Renewal

We forget to pace ourselves at times. Rest and renewal permit us to go farther faster in this mortal marathon. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 109.)

Sometimes being worn down is our own fault for not providing space and time for ourselves for spiritual renewal, an area that to the adversary is "off limits." We need
the equivalent of designated nonsmoking areas to secure us from secondhand sensuality, inappropriate humor, twisted film, and bad music. ("Not My Will, But Thine",
p. 75.)

Repentance

Real repentance involves not a mechanical checklist, but a checkreining of the natural self. (Ensign, November 1991, p. 30.)

True contrition brings full capitulation. One simply surrenders, caring only about what God thinks, not what "they" think, while meekly offering, "O God, make thyself
known unto me, and I will give away all my sins to know thee." (Alma 22:18.) Giving away all our sins is the only way we can come to know God. (Ensign, November
1991, p. 32.)

God asks us now to give up only those things which, if clung to, will destroy us! (Ensign, November 1974, p. 13.)

Cleansing circumstances are to be welcomed even if the scrubbing is painful. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 94.)

That program of progress-repentance-beckons us to betterness. (Ensign, May 1976, p. 26.)

For us mistake-prone mortals, this plan of mercy provides for recognition and redress of error and for the resumption of interrupted individual development. (Ensign,
May 1984, p. 22.)

When you and I make unwise decisions, if we have frail faith we not only demand to be rescued but we want to be rescued privately, painlessly, quickly-or at least to
be beaten only "with a few stripes." (2 Ne. 28:8.) Brothers and sisters, how can we really feel forgiven until we first feel responsible? How can we learn from our own
experiences unless these lessons are owned up to? (Ensign, May 1991, p. 91.)

Repentance is a rescuing, not a dour doctrine. It is available to the gross sinner as well as to the already-good individual striving for incremental improvement. (Ensign,
November 1991, p. 30.)

Repentance requires both turning away from evil and turning to God. Initially, this turning reflects progress from telestial to terrestrial behavior, and later on to celestial
behavior. As the sins of the telestial world are left behind, the focus falls ever more steadily upon the sins of omission, which often keep us from full consecration.
(Ensign, November 1991, p. 30.)

False remorse is like "fondling our failings." In ritual regret, we mourn our mistakes but without mending them. (Ensign, November 1991, p. 31.)

Jesus suffered for our sins; He knows perfectly what constructive sorrow we should be experiencing in order to be cleansed. His justice will insist on such needed and
cleansing sorrow, for nothingless will do. Because His love of us is true charity, He will not spare us, since to exempt us would be to deny us. It is better that there be
sorrow now so that later on there can be a fullness of joy. (Even As I Am, p. 18.)

[God] is ever encouraging us to regroup and try again. And there are no restrictive office hours for receiving returning prodigals-night and day He awaits us! (Men and
Women of Christ, p. 28.)

It is strange that when one is remodeling a portion of his house, he expects visitors to be tolerant of improvements that are so obviously underway. Yet while one is
remodeling his character, we often feel obligated to call attention to the messy signs of remodeling, or feel called upon to remember aloud things as they were.
Forgetting is such a necessary part of forgiving. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 113.)

The past must not hold the future hostage; otherwise, what of the sons of Mosiah? Or Saul of Tarsus? Or many of us? (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward,. p. 91.)

If we really have sufficient faith to enjoy "faith unto repentance" (Alma 34:17), this in itself dramatically lightens our life loads. Even so, how long it takes us to heave off
the heavy burdens of hypocrisy! Perhaps the saddest consequence of little faith is little repentance. The burden of believing seems so heavy, when it is actually the
wearying weight of our own sins that we feel. (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 29.)

Reproof

Correction when it comes often has a cutting edge, and normally there is no anesthetic. Hearts which are so set upon wrong orworldly ways must first be broken, and
this cannot be done without pain. And so it is that speaking the truth in love matters so very much! (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 86.)

To withhold deserved reproof, and the reasons therefore, may be to withhold a warning that is urgently needed. Reproof is often a last railing before an erring individual

goes over the edge of the cliff. ("Insights from My Life," p. 192.)                                                                               Page 248 / 1773

Letting others simply go erringly on may be easy-but it is not love. At times we must run the risk of having our love and concern for other people seen by them as

Letting others simply go erringly on may be easy-but it is not love. At times we must run the risk of having our love and concern for other people seen by them as
hostility. ("A More Excellent Way", pp. 79-80.)

If we seek to administer reproof properly, we must also be willing to listen and to respond after we have issued our reproof. The receiver will often need some time to
test the accuracy of our reproof and the implications of that reproof. He needs to reassure himself that we care for him, that he is still safely within our circle of concern.
("A More Excellent Way", p. 94.)

Jesus' fearlessness was accompanied by gentleness. When He healed ten lepers and only one returned to thank Him, He then asked, "But where are the nine?" [Luke
17:17. There was no point in His lecturing the one-as we so often do, giving the right lesson to the wrong audience-instead of the other nine. After all, the one did
return! (Even As I Am, p. 84.)

The correct manner and motivation for reproof are indicated in D&C 121:43. In practice, however, when we undertake to reprove we frequently are prompted not by
the Holy Ghost but by ego. Moreover, we often fail to reprove "betimes," meaning speedily and early on. Time can harden feelings as surely as the sun bakes wet clay.
(A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 113.)

Most of us don't like to be cut to the center [see 1 Ne. 16:2], and when the gospel standards cut us it hurts. The tendency is to deal with the pain by rejecting further
surgery. ("For the Power Is in Them " Mormon Musings, p. 49.)

Nor should we neglect the power of gentle reproof. Sometimes we need not declaim the actions of others so much as remind them of who they are and what they
should be. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 88.)

Restoration

The finished mosaic of the history of the Restoration will be larger and more varied as more pieces of tile emerge, adjusting a sequence here or enlarging there a sector
of our understanding. The fundamental outline is in place now, however. But history deals with imperfect people in process of time, whose imperfections produce
refractions as the pure light of the gospel plays upon them. There may even be a few pieces of tile which, for the moment, do not seem to fit. The final mosaic of the
Restoration will be resplendent, reflecting divine design and the same centerpiece-the Father's plan of salvation and exaltation and the atonement of His Son, Jesus
Christ. (Ensign, November 1984, p. 11.)

The Restoration provides clarification. As prophesied, the rising sun of the Restoration melts away the icy stumbling blocks of false doctrines frozen in place over the
centuries (1 Ne. 14:1). ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 39.)

Clearly, the Book of Mormon was needed as an added witness in these the decades of deep doubt. Clearly, the theophany at Palmyra puts to rout all the chatter about
the historicity of Jesus; itended all the theological and historical fuzziness about the nature of the Godhead, while dramatically confirming the reality of the resurrection.
("'All Hell Is Moved,'" p. 178.)

What the Restoration brings clearly into our view discloses a many-splendored Savior, not simply a Socrates in Samaria or a Plato in Palestine. ("Not My Will, But
Thine", p. 43.)

For those who truly desire to live not by bread alone, but by every word which proceeds forth from the Lord, there will be no famine. In fact, the harvest of the
Restoration is "running over." ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 47.)

As you and I dash about the wonder-filled landscape of the Restoration, exclaiming and observing, it should not surprise us that our first impressions are less than
definitive. Little wonder that some of us mistake a cluster of trees for the whole forest or that, in some of our joyful exclamations, there are some unintended
exaggerations. Roving amid the tall timber of truth, the pervasive scent of pine is inevitably upon us. Our pockets are bulging with souvenir rocks and cones. And we
are filled with childish glee. There is no way to survey it all-in one tour or several. Besides, further familiarization will only increase our wonder. After all, One not given
to hyperbole used the word marvelous to describe the Restoration! (Ensign, November 1987, p. 33.)

Resurrection

The gift of immortality to all mankind through the reality of the Resurrection is so powerful a promise that our rejoicing in these great and generous gifts should drown
out any sorrow, assuage anygrief, conquer any mood, dissolve any despair, and tame any tragedy. Those who now see life as pointless will one day point with
adoration to the performance of the Man of Galilee in those crowded moments of time known as Gethsemane and Calvary. Those who presently say life is meaningless
will yet applaud the Atonement which saves us from meaninglessness. Christ's victory over death ended the human predicament. Now there are only personal
predicaments, and from these too we may be rescued by following the teachings of him who rescued us from general extinction. ("'All Hell Is Moved,'" p. 181.)

Granted, there is not full correlation among the four Gospels about the events and participants at the empty garden tomb. (See Matt. 28:1-8; Mark 16:1-8; Luke
24:19; John 20:1-10.) Yet the important thing is that the tomb was empty, because Jesus had been resurrected! Essence, not tactical detail! (Ensign, November 1984,
p. 11.)

All men ultimately die, but the accumulated "luggage" they take with them into the next great adventure is so different. Should we who see differences in babies so soon
after their birth not expect variety in each human snowflake after the resurrection? (That My Family Should Partake,. p. 96.)

If we ponder just what it is that will rise with us in the resurrection, it seems clear that our intelligence will rise with us, meaning not simply our IQ but also our capacity
to receive and apply truth. Our talents, attributes, and skills will rise with us; certainly also our capacity to learn, our degree of self-discipline, and our capacity to work.
Our precise form of work here may have no counterpart there, but the capacity to work will never be obsolete. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 45.)

Revelation

Many sects-without the reinforcing rods of revelation-have been badly shaken by theological tremors; the resulting ecclesiastical erosion has been so rapid it is
measured in years, not centuries. (Ensign, May 1976, p. 26.)
Copyright (c) 2005-2009, Infobase Media Corp.                                                                                                           Page 249 / 1773
In the economy of heaven, God does not send thunder if a still, small voice is enough, or a prophet if a priest can do the job. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 29.)

He [Jesus Christ] lives today, mercifully granting unto all nations as much light as they can bear. And who better than the Light of the World can decide the degree of
divine disclosure-whether it is to be flashlights or floodlights. (Ensign, November 1981, pp. 9-10.)

Whenever the words of heaven are filtered through mortal minds, tongues, and vocabularies there is some diminution. (Ensign, November 1983, p. 55.)

As the Lord communicates with the meek and submissive, fewer decibels are required, and more nuances are received. (Ensign, May 1985, p. 71.)

When the Lord gives us "line upon line" and "precept upon precept" about Himself and His plans, many ignore these great gifts. Instead of lines, some demand
paragraphs and even pages. When God provides "here a little, and there a little" (Isa. 28:10), some want a lot-now! (Ensign, November 1987, p. 31.)

Let us be wary about accommodating revealed theology to conventional wisdom. (Ensign, November 1993, p. 20.)

God gives to us the gospel, by which we get direction, motivation, and illumination. But there appears to be no point in God's constantly illuminating the trail beyond
where my eyes of faith can now see. ("Insights from My Life," p. 190.)

We cannot determine by using radio telescopes that there is a plan of salvation operating in the universe, helpful as radio telescopes are for astrophysical purposes.
Salvational truths are obtainable only by revelation. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 18.)

There are important gradations as between types of blessings. One type-very real and much appreciated-is tied to temporal and passing conditions. We might call these
operational revelations-how to build an ark, or how to illuminate barges, for example. These are remarkable blessings which respond to urgent needs, but they cannot
compare to the illuminating revelations from Jesus concerning what we must do to be more like Him. That type of blessing is tied to the eternal conditions. Both types
are needed. Both are to be remembered. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 54.)

Divine disclosure is metered in "process of time" at a pace largely dependent upon our readiness to receive. (Meek and Lowly, p. 91.)

We have a notable lack of capacity to appreciate things that, like water out of a fire hydrant, come in a rush. Hence the Lord meters out divine disclosure according to
what is deserved and usable. (Meek and Lowly, p. 91.)

What reason concludes are impassable mountains, revelation shows to be rolling hills over which we can pass if we press forward. Sitting and staring at the slopes can
make them into stern Sierras. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 43.)

Continuing revelation is like the timely unfolding of a huge tapestry. Those of us who live out our lives seeing mostly one segment of that tapestry must not mistake what
we see for the whole of the tapestry. It is the same with the unfolding of the kingdom. (Things As They Really Are, p. 40.)

Reverence

We can and should have more reverence in our chapels and foyers, but isn't it good that the increase in the decibel level when we are together occurs because of good
feelings rather than bad ones? (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 103.)

Righteousness

Righteousness preserves and sharpens the tastebuds of the soul, while selfishness first scalds and then destroys them. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p.
65.)

Righteousness is not a matter of role, nor is goodness a matter of gender. (Ensign, May 1978, p. 10.)

Before the ultimate victory of the forces of righteousness, some skirmishes will be lost. Even these, however, must leave a record sothat the choices before the people
are clear and let others do as they will in the face of prophetic counsel. There will also be times, happily, when a minor defeat seems probable, that others will step
forward, having been rallied to rightness by what we do. We will know the joy, on occasion, of having awakened a slumbering majority of the decent people of all
races and creeds-a majority which was, till then, unconscious of itself. ("Meeting the Challenges of Today," p. 151.)

Eight were rescued in the time of Noah, but finally only three from Sodom (in view of Lot's wife's fate). While the precise mathematical proportions of the critical mass
of good people necessary to save a society is not known to us, it cannot be doubted that without that critical mass, societies decline rapidly and significant changes
come, in one form or another, and sometimes suddenly! (Look Back at Sodom, p. 26.)

Any response but righteousness is risky. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 13.)

Eternal things are always done in the process of time. Men are ripened in righteousness as the grain is ripened. Each process requires rich soil and the sunlight of
heaven. Time is measured only to impatient men. Direction is initially more important than speed. Who would really want momentum anyway, if he were on a wrong
course? (Of One Heart, p. 35.)

Righteousness increases the uniqueness of our presence, but sin sinks us into sameness. (Of One Heart, p. 35.)

Evil people exist. The in-betweeners merely survive. But those who have really lived will be those who have lived righteously, because they will have lived righteously
and served selflessly in a time of stunning contrasts. They will have managed to keep clean in a dirty world. And being free, they will be happy in otherwise sad times,
and all their experiences will be for their good. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 65.)

Sacrifice

Real, personal sacrifice never was placing an animal on the altar. Instead, it is a willingness to put the animal in us upon the altar and letting it be consumed! (Ensign,

When we have truly given what we have, it is like paying a full tithe; it is, in that respect, all that was asked. The widow who cast in her two mites was neither self-
conscious nor searching for mortal approval. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 30.)

By putting everything we have on the altar of the Lord and not waiting for Him to give us a receipt, we show our submissiveness. Otherwise our giving may become
linked with expecting recognition or with soliciting proof of the Lord's appreciation. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 96.)

Since the natural man is too attached to his possessions anyway, the plan requires that we must have experience in giving possessions away-in sharing and even losing
them-in order to give us experience with the principle of sacrifice without worrying about getting credit or receiving recognition as we worship Him who made the "great
and last sacrifice" (Alma 34:10). (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 42.)

The submission of one's will is placing on God's altar the only uniquely personal thing one has to place there. The many other things we "give" are actually the things He
has already given or loaned to us. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 54.)

Saints

Those who are (or who will become) Saints reach breaking points without breaking. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 52.)

May we be different in order to make a difference in the world. (Ensign, November 1974, p. 13.)

When the Saints are spotlighted, it will not always be for us to take curtsies and bows; sometimes the spotlights will be searchlights. Because of the distinctiveness of
the Restoration, we will be held to higher standards. ("'All Hell Is Moved,'" p. 176.)

Saints do not have sad or woeful countenances. They are much more interesting than sinners. Sinners are so much the same in their sadness. Sometimes their very
flamboyance betrays their sense of sameness. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 52.)

It is exceedingly important that Latter-day Saints avoid both a bunker and an onlooker mentality. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 85.)

Some people resent the Latter-day Saints because what we believe is so stunning and mind-expanding. Certainly our individual hypocrisies and shortcomings are made
more glaring by all the bold and demanding doctrines in which we believe. Our theological certitude is also sometimes seen as smugness. It certainly helps if absolute
truth is possessed by those who are, in turn, especially loving and behaving. (That Ye May Believe, p. 62.)

Scholarship

LDS scholars can and should speak in the tongue of scholarship, but without coming to prefer it and without losing the mother tongue of faith. (Deposition of a Disciple,
p. 16.)

Science

It would be unwise, of course, for the Church to tie itself to the provisional truths of science at any point in science's unfolding history. Ultimately, scientific truth will
align with divinely revealed truth; meanwhile we can applaud genuine scientific advances, noting them without depending overly much upon them. (Men and Women of
Christ, pp. 91-92.)

Scorn

Members [of the Church] will be cleverly mocked and scorned by those in the "great and spacious building," representing the pride of the world (1 Ne. 8:26; 11:36).
No matter, for ere long, He who was raised on the third day will raze that spacious but third-class hotel! (Ensign, May 1987, p. 71.)

So let us have patience and faith as did Lehi who saw pointing fingers of scorn directed at those who grasped the iron rod, which rod, ironically, some of those same
fingers once grasped(see 1 Ne. 8:27, 33). But, said Lehi, "we heeded them not." So it should be with us! Brothers and sisters, being pointed in the right direction we do
not need to worry about being pointed at! (Ensign, November 1993, p. 20.)

Why-really why-do the disbelievers who line that [great and] spacious building [see 1 Ne. 8:26-27, 33] watch so intently what the believers are doing? Surely there
must be other things for the scorners to do-perhaps in that building's bowling alley-unless, deep within their seeming disinterest, there is interest. ("Meeting the
Challenges of Today," p. 151.)

It is not easy to be a rescuer of one's fellowmen, especially when those to be rescued make fun of the rescuers. Sometimes the hand to be grasped is not outstretched
at all, but features a pointing finger of scorn! (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 32.)

We see a few around us who simply can't stand to be separated from the "politically correct" multitudes in the great and spacious building. The "finger of scorn" has its
own way of separating the faithful from those who have little or no faith (see 1 Ne. 8:33). (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 99.)

Scriptures

For "the man of Christ," the words of scriptures are like parachute flares above the trenches of life, illuminating the landscape only briefly, but long enough for him to see
the enemy clearly and to make his way along the path he must take-and to help others so to do. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 95.)

One reason to "search the scriptures" is to discover these luxuriant meadows of meaning, these green pastures that can nourish us in our individual times of need. ("Not
My Will, But Thine", p. 30.)

Only by searching the scriptures, not using them occasionally as quote books, can we begin to understand the implications as well as the declarations of the gospel.

Traversing these truths requires more than a casual stroll up sloping foothills; they take us instead up the breathtaking ridges of reality to an Everest of understanding.
On a clear day, we can see forever! (Ensign, May 1986, p. 34.)

Searching the scriptures includes facing the wintry doctrines therein. We are not to brush by a truth any more than we are to brush by a person. Of course, what is
desired in this searching of the scriptures is comprehension, not genuflection or ritualistic reading; insight, not incantation; and penetration, not coverage. And if we
tremble occasionally when we stand in the presence of a prophecy yet to be fulfilled, it should not surprise us. ("Thanksgiving for the Holy Scriptures.")

We possess these precious truths! Now they must come to possess us! (Ensign, May 1986, p. 35.)

The holy scriptures represent mankind's spiritual memory. And when man's connection with scripture is severed, mortals are tragically deprived of an awareness of
spiritual history. Thereby, when shorn of true identity, mortals keep their legs intact, but each walks in his own way. (Ensign, November 1986, p. 52.)

One day we will have a third book of scripture to go with the record of the Jews, the Bible, and the record of the Nephites, theBook of Mormon. All three will be
testaments of Jesus! This third book will be the record of the Lost Tribes of Israel, whom Jesus also visited. (2 Ne. 29:13.) In the distant future, three volumes of
scripture bound in white may well lie on the altars of hundreds of temples. (Talk given January 8, 1995.)

Later on, there will also be many other nourishing and inspiring scriptures. However, we must first feast worthily upon that which we already have! (Ensign, November
1986, p. 52.)

Without this precious, spiritual perspective, the human family is seldom more than one generation away from deep doubt and even disbelief. (Ensign, November 1986,
p. 52.)

Some try to get by with knowing only the headlines of the gospel, not really talking much of Christ or rejoicing in Christ, and esteeming lightly His books of scripture
which contain and explain His covenants (see 2 Ne. 25:26). (Ensign, May 1987, p. 70.)

The scriptures not only witness the truth about Christ and his relevance for mankind, but are, in a sense, like a songbook. There are many melodies that need to be sung
and heard, and adult favorites are not necessarily those that attract or are relevant for the young. Only through personal involvement with the scriptures can we find the
particular scriptural songs to meet our needs. We cannot depend entirely on group study of the Gospel to fill all our individual requirements. We must-ourselves-open
the songbook and hear the music. The answers are there and the music of the Gospel, like its physical counterpart, suffers from too much filtering without high fidelity.
(A Time to Choose, pp. 52-53.)

May we emulate the feelings for the scriptures held by Tyndale and Paul? Tyndale was imprisoned for translating holy scripture, and Paul was martyred for providing
and testifying of holy scripture.The parallels are powerful: Heroic Tyndale, from a cold, dark dungeon where he stayed for 16 months and from which he would soon
go to be strangled and then burned, sent a letter begging for "a warmer cap a warmer coat also also a piece of cloth to patch my leggings but above all my Hebrew
Bible." Heroic Paul, aging Apostle-in Rome waiting to be brought before Nero a second time and then to be martyred, deserted by friends-asked Timothy to bring his
"cloke," "the books," and "especially the parchments." (2 Tim. 4:13.) ("Thanksgiving for the Holy Scriptures.")

The scriptures are doors with immense truths behind them, divine insights of major proportions; there is an eternal curriculum-things God would have all men and
women upon the face of the earth learn for their happiness. (A Time to Choose, p. 53.)

We must search the scriptures regularly. Unstudied, unapplied, dormant doctrines will seem to shrink in importance and relevance, for this is the atrophy that precedes
indifference or apostasy. (A Time to Choose, p. 66.)

It is so easy to scan rather than search the holy scriptures, and to nibble at them rather than to feast upon them! (Plain and Precious Things, p. 3.)

It is my opinion that all the scriptures, including the Book of Mormon, will remain in the realm of faith. Science will not be able to prove or disprove holy writ. However,
enough plausible evidence will come forth to prevent scoffers from having a field day, but not enough to remove the requirement of faith. (Plain and Precious Things, p.
4.)

Today we carry convenient quadruple combinations of the scriptures, but one day, since more scriptures are coming, we may need to pull little red wagons brim with
books. Of course, computers may replace wagons. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 18.)

The greater the circumference of our collective spirituality, the larger the pulpit of memory from which the Holy Ghost can stir us. We are far more likely to "come off
conqueror" in our holy present if we are truly familiar with mankind's spiritual past. (Sermons Not Spoken, p. 9.)

For those athirst for the living waters, searching the holy scriptures will cause those books to release their nourishing juices and will invigorate us for the long journey of
discipleship. (Men and Women of Christ, p. 7.)

Various verses contain stinging one-liners for unfaithful "two-timers." They provide instructive case studies for egoists who have "a case" on themselves! Similarly, the
scriptures contain sobering words for those who are intoxicated by riches, power, or the praise of men. (That Ye May Believe, p. 185.)

The scriptures can give us needed rock-like steadiness, especially in this latter-day, topsy-turvy world in which "all things are in commotion" (D&C 45:26; 88:91).
(That Ye May Believe, p. 185.)

Given the divine design of the "other books," [Book of Mormon, Doctrine & Covenants, Pearl of Great Price] believers in and students of them regard the correlative
relationships between ancient and modern scriptures as unsurprising. They are the expected latticework of the Lord, and the multiple interweavings and abundant cross-
supports among them are part of a natural pattern for scriptures that were to converge doctrinally and grow together "fitly framed." ("But for a Small Moment", p. 42.)

Because the waters of life everlasting all come from the same divine well, it should not be surprising that conceptual similarities appear between the various books of
scripture, both at the lofty levels having to do with Christ's mission, etc., and at other conceptual levels. ("For the Power Is in Them " Mormon Musings, p. 42.)

Ordinary books contain comparative crumbs, whereas the bread of life provides a feast! ("The Children of Christ," p. 83.)

Second Coming

Soon, He who was once mockingly dressed in purple will come again, attired in red apparel, reminding us whose blood redeemed us. All will then acknowledge the
completeness of His justice and His mercy and will see how human indifference to God-not God's indifference to humanity-accounts for so much misery and suffering.
Then we will see the true story of mankind-and not through glass darkly. The great military battles will appear as mere bonfires that blazed briefly, and the mortal
accounts of the human experience will be mere graffiti on the walls of time. (Even As I Am, p. 120.)

When He comes again, unlike coming to the signifying meekness of the manger, He will come in overwhelming majesty and power. In at least one appearance, He will
come in red apparel to remind us that He shed His blood for us. (D&C 133:48; Isa. 63:1.) Among the astounding, accompanying events, stars will fall from the
heavens, as Christ will declare, "I have trodden the wine-press alone, and none was with me." (D&C 133:50.) What will we and those who witness these marvelous
events speak of, then and later? Not the falling stars! Instead, we will speak of Jesus' "lovingkindness." For how long will we so exclaim? "Forever and ever." (D&C
133:52.) The more we come to know of Jesus and the Atonement, the more we shall praise and adore Him "forever and ever." ("Jesus: Lord of Loving-Kindness and
of the Far-flung Vineyard.")

The chiliast, one who believes in a second coming of Christ that will usher in a millennial reign, has special challenges in reading signs. First, he is urged to notice lest he
be caught unawares. Second, he must be aware of how many false readings and alarms there have been in bygone days, even by the faithful. For instance, has any age
had more "wonders in the sky" than ours, with satellites and journeys to the moon? Has any generation seen such ominous "vapors of smoke" as ours with its mushroom
clouds over the pathetic pyres of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Yet there is "more to come." Our task is to react and to notice without overreacting, to let life go forward
without slipping into the heedlessness of those in the days of Noah. ("For the Power Is in Them " Mormon Musings, p. 20.)

How quickly and easily the few are misled! Such members may know superficially of the doctrines of the kingdom, but their root system is shallow. Though able to
provide doctrinal recitation, they seem not to know either the implications or interconnections of those doctrines. For instance, instead of wisely noticing the warning
leaves on the fig tree, a few proceed to fixate on the specific timing of Jesus' second coming. Yet the Savior clearly stated, "But of that day and hour knoweth no man,
no, not the angels ofheaven, but my Father only" (Matt. 23:36). Clearly, since even the angels in heaven-an otherwise reasonably well-informed group-do not know,
we should be wary of mortals obsessed with calendaring. So often modern gnostics who in one exotic way or another pretend to be "in the know" are, in fact,
spiritually "out of touch"! Meanwhile, mature members will take time both to smell the flowers and to watch the leaves on the fig tree to see when "summer is
nigh" (Matt. 24:32-33). (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 94.)

We are to ponder signs without becoming paranoid, and to be aware without frantically keeping score between current events and scriptural expectations. The wise
chiliast will use his or her energy in serving God and man instead of fretting and will resist secularism's heavy sedation. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 12.)

Secularism

Secular remedies resemble an alarmed passenger traveling on the wrong train who tries to compensate by running up the aisle in the opposite direction! (Ensign,
November 1994, p. 35.)

Secularism, too, has its own "priests" and is jealous over its own "orthodoxy." Those who choose not to follow Him are sometimes quick to say "Follow me." They
enjoy being a light, and the accompanying recognition and reward are not unpleasant. (Plain and Precious Things, p. 87.)

Secularism, unsurprisingly, has allied itself with relativism, and it is busy practicing what it preaches in what I would call an alliance of dalliance. ("'Build up My Church,'
'Establish the [Lord's] Righteousness.'")

We shall see in our time a maximum if indirect effort made to establish irreligon as the state religion. It is actually a new form of paganism that uses the carefully
preserved and cultivated freedoms of Western civilization to shrink freedom even as it rejects the value essence of our rich Judeo-Christian heritage. Irreligion as the
state religion would be the worst of all combinations. Its orthodoxy would be insistent and its inquisitors inevitable. Its paid ministry would be numerous beyond belief.
Its Caesars would be insufferably condescending. Its majorities-when faced with clear alternatives-would make the Barabbas choice, as did a mob centuries ago when
Pilate confronted them with the need to decide. ("Meeting the Challenges of Today," p. 149.)

Ironically, as some people become harder, they use softer words to describe dark deeds. This, too, is part of being sedated by secularism. Needless abortion, for
instance, is a "reproductive health procedure,". "Illegitimacy" gives way to the wholly sanitized words "non-marital birth" or "alternative parenting." (Ensign, May 1996,
p. 68.)

Great men can, and have, come out of economic poverty, but much less often out of an emotional ghetto. Thus while secularism sincerely seeks to tear down brick and
mortar ghettos, it leaves the human debris of doctrinal deprivation in its wake and creates "a herd morality." (The Smallest Part, p. 37.)

So many secular solutions are really soothing slogans; there is no real substance to them. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 23.)

Sincere, secular solutions to one problem often create an equally difficult problem in its place. (A Time to Choose, p. 69.)

Any secular system without sufficient human goodness and righteousness will, sooner or later, fail. We must not mistake mere scaffolding for substance. (Even As I Am,
p. 16.)

Secular solutions that ignore the family often become not only counterproductive but also dangerous. (That My Family Should Partake, p. 8.)

the Christian's response involves more than merely replacing the doctrinal divots on the fairway that the secularists have torn up. (That My Family Should Partake, p.

Secularism, the setting in which most Christians will live out their lives, is both a diversion from and a perversion of life's true purpose. Hence the disappointment in the
secular search for the meaning of life. Hence the drooping of the human spirit in which the conscience can come to be regarded as an intruder. Indeed, ennui, boredom,
and humdrum hedonism are descriptive of those thus afflicted. (Sermons Not Spoken, p. 70.)

A secular society is the most likely cultural candidate to be especially surprised by a Jesus who comes "as a thief in the night." A society indifferent, even hostile, to
things spiritual will be truly astonished. (That Ye May Believe, p. 171.)

Is not secularism often sincere? Yes, but suppose someone had installed suggestion boxes on the last day on the job at the construction site of the Tower of Babel!
Would his sincerity have mattered much? (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 95.)

Secular solutions tend to be rehabilitative rather than preventive. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 84.)

Without fixed principles and a steady spiritual focus for life we will be diverted by the cares of the world and intimidated by boldly striding secularism. It is very easy to
underestimate thepervasiveness and preoccupations of secularism. Merely surviving, then striving for advantage, getting and spending; then being anesthetized by
relentless routine, and sensing, as the secularist does, the finality of death-all these combine to ensure the grim dominance of the cares of the world. (If Thou Endure It
Well, pp. 13-14.)

We should avoid being deeply disappointed or surprised when the modern innkeepers or the establishments of the world have no room for Christ's servants or cannot
"give place for a portion" of Christ's word (Alma 32:27). For us too, better a spiritual manger than a stay in those secular inns of the intellect which are so exclusionary
of spiritual things. (The Christmas Scene, p. 11.)

Self-Control

True law enforcement depends on the policing of one's self. If the sentry of self fails, there are simply not enough other policemen to restrain those who will not restrain
themselves, and beating the system will become the system. (Ensign, May 1975, p. 101.)

On occasion the biting of the tongue can be as important as the gift of tongues. (Ensign, November 1990, p. 16.)

To have the faith to deny oneself certain of life's questionable pleasures is to affirm oneself, an attitude involving a healthy self-respect that is proper for the submissive.
One's intrinsic, eternal worth is not to be traded for the things of the moment. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 61.)

Self-Esteem

If another person only had in his storehouse of deserved self-esteem what you had put there, what would he have to draw upon and to sustain him? (The Smallest Part,
p. 59.)

We [should] make quiet but more honest inventories of our strengths, since, in this connection, most of us are dishonest bookkeepers and need confirming "outside
auditors." (Ensign, November 1976, p. 14.)

We cannot build up the kingdom steadily if we are consantly tearing ourselves down. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 12.)

Self-contempt is of Satan; there is none of it in heaven. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 30.)

Since self-esteem controls ultimately our ability to love God, to love others, and to love life, nothing is more central than our need to build justifiable self-esteem. ("A
More Excellent Way", p. 90.)

Our self-esteem need not be shattered by failure, if a kind of resilience and bounce can be developed early in life. "Picking ourselves up off the floor" can best be
learned where there is "friendly" floor; where the risks are not so great, and love and support are there to assist us. In the home there can be praise which can balance
off our occasional failures. ("A More Excellent Way", p. 122.)

Some among us mistakenly see the size and response of their audiences as the sole verification of their worth! Yet those fickle galleries to which we sometimes play
have a way of being rotated and emptied. They will surely be empty on Judgment Day; everyone will be somewhere else-on their knees. (Men and Women of Christ,
p. 64.)

Self-Image

We are sometimes so anxious about our personal images, when it is His image we should have in our countenances. (See Alma 5:14.) (Ensign, November 1988, p.
31.)

Self-Improvement

We [should] distinguish more clearly between divine discontent and the devil's dissonance, between dissatisfaction with self and disdain for self. We need the first and
must shun the second, remembering that when conscience calls to us from the next ridge, it is not solely to scold but also to beckon. (Ensign, November 1976, p. 14.)

Let us participate in the rigorous calisthenics of daily improvement, and not just in the classroom rhetoric of eternal progression! (Ensign, November 1980, p. 15.)

The imperfections of others never release us from the need to work on our own shortcomings. (Ensign, May 1982, p. 39.)

If sudden, stabbing light exposes the gap between what we are and what we think we are, can we, like Peter, let that light be a healing laser? (Ensign, May 1989, p.

Can't one rest a little while longer before starting a quiet new campaign of self-improvement? No, because being "valiant" in our testimony of Jesus includes precious
few recesses and no vacations! (See D&C 76:79.) The school day in the mortal classroom is so very brief at best. (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 116.)

Selfishness

Selfishness is much more than an ordinary problem because it activates all the cardinal sins! It is the detonator in the breaking of the Ten Commandments. (Ensign,
November 1990, p. 14.)

In all its various expressions, selfishness is really self-destruction in slow motion. (Ensign, November 1990, p. 16.)

The distance between constant self-pleasing and self-worship is shorter than we think. Stubborn selfishness is, actually, rebellion against God. (Ensign, November
1980, p. 14.)

The selfish individual seeks to please not God, but himself. He will even break a covenant in order to fix an appetite. (Ensign, November 1980, p. 14.)

The selfish individual has a passion for the vertical pronoun I . Significantly, the vertical pronoun I has no knees to bend, while the first letter in the pronoun we does.
(Ensign, November 1980, p. 14.)

Myopic selfishness magnifies a mess of pottage into a banquet and makes thirty pieces of silver look like a treasure trove. (Ensign, November 1990, p. 15.)

Each spasm of selfishness narrows the universe that much more by shutting down our awareness of others and by making us more and more alone. (Ensign, November
1990, p. 16.)

Most of the time, the sponge of selfishness quickly soaks up everything in sight, including praise intended for others. ("'Meek and Lowly,'" p. 55.)

Just as fire requires oxygen, so generosity and mutuality require significant unselfishness. We are accustomed to reading about the challenges of spiraling violence and
spiraling inflation, and these are very real; but spiraling selfishness is at the very center of all the other spiraling challenges of today. (That My Family Should Partake, p.
33.)

Selfishness, which comes in many costumes, is particularly cruel, not only because it gives priority to pleasure, but because it usually means one person's pleasure
comes at the expense of another person's pain. Its most fundamental characteristic, however, is that one possessed of selfishness sees others as mere functions or
objects to be used-or to be ignored-and not as humans to be helped, to be loved, or to be listened to. (That My Family Should Partake, p. 34.)

Selfishness views life in such a way that one should get all the gusto he can out of life; selfishness is the social equivalent of heedless strip-mining. (That My Family
Should Partake, p. 34.)

Those who are selfish are not free at all, because their only choice is to yield to their appetites. (That My Family Should Partake, p. 36.)

The selfish person is somewhat in the position of the drug addict; he is always in fresh need of a fix. (That My Family Should Partake, p. 40.)

Selfishness need not be gross in order to call the cadence in our lives. It merely needs to deflect us from thinking about an act of service to thinking about needing a new
pair of shoes; or from making a nurturing phone call to watching a soap opera. (Men and Women of Christ, p. 104.)

The steady secretions of selfishness will continue to reencrust us until we put off the natural man and woman-firmly and finally! (That Ye May Believe, p. 47.)

Selfishness is a near-religion for some. Its theology is "me," its hereafter is "now," and its rituals consist of sensation! (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p.
58.)

Selfish people are forever taking their own temperature, asking themselves, "Am I happy?" (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 60.)

The quality of our love and concern for our fellowmen can often be measured in seemingly little ways. For instance, if we are so task-oriented that we murmur at a busy
intersection because a siren-wailing ambulance comes through that intersection on "our" green light, then we have forgotten the needs of another, putting our
convenience ahead of his necessity. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 106.)

A narcissistic society in which each person is too busy looking out for "number one" can build no brotherhood; it will finally be shattered against its own selfishness. Had
God's Firstborn looked out for Himself first, there would have been no Gethsemane or Calvary-and no immortality! (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 92.)

Selfishness is a form of self-worship, and we have been told, "Thou shalt have no other Gods before me" (Ex. 20:3). ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 8.)

Our physical as well as our familial environment is likewise threatened by selfishness. But some worry only about holes in the ozone layer, while the fabric of many
families who lack the lamp [see Prov. 6:23] resembles Swiss cheese. (Ensign, May 1995, p. 68.)

Self-Pity

Self-pity is that sludge in which sin sprouts so easily. (Ensign, November 1991, p. 32.)

A constructive critic truly cares for that which he criticizes, including himself, whereas self-pity is the most condescending form of pity; it soon cannibalizes all other
concerns. (Ensign, November 1976, p. 13.)

Sensuality

Those so drained by sensuality do, in fact, seek to compensate for their loneliness by sensations. However, in the arithmetic of appetite, anything multiplied by zero still
totals zero! (Ensign, February 1986, p. 19.)

Carnality is always such a profound contraction of life; it destroys even that which it pretends to focus upon! (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 53.)

Truly, "the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak" (Matt. 26:41). While we must beware of excusing ourselves too much, we do need to make some allowance for
that fundamental fact. Spiritual stimuli, for instance, can be choked out by the steady stimuli of the world. Thirst, hunger, fatigue-all can magnify the attractiveness of a
mess of pottage. (Men and Women of Christ, pp. 104-5.)

Service

I know the celestial criteria measure service, not status; the use of our talents, not the relative size of our talent inventories. (Ensign, May 1974, p. 112.)

We need some institutionalization, even in the kingdom. Random goodness is, by itself, not enough to resist the march of evil. I am grateful that God has so organized us
and that he has given us specific things to do. Otherwise, we would be like the lonely sharpshooters trying to slow the advancing army of evil. ("Insights from My Life,"
p. 197.)

We, more than others, should carry jumper and tow cables not only in our cars, but also in our hearts, by which means we can send the needed boost or charge of
encouragement or the added momentum to mortal neighbors. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 56.)

Unless we grasp them firmly and quickly, many of the proffered opportunities to serve have a short shelf life and are perishable. Golden moments come and go. (If
Thou Endure It Well, p. 113.)

[I express] appreciation for your sustaining vote which was not vindication but an invitation-an invitation for me to be and to do better. (Ensign, May 1974, p. 112.)

On the straight, narrow path, which leads to our little Calvarys, one does not hear a serious traveler exclaiming, "Look, no hands!" (Ensign, May 1990, p. 34.)

Do you and I understand that the significance of our service does not depend upon its scale? (Ensign, May 1989, p. 63.)

Sometimes in our search for status, [we] get confused about the relationship of status to righteousness. It is not the expanse of the ecclesiastical epaulets we wear on
our shoulders, but our willingness to put our shoulder to the wheel that counts! ("It's Service, Not Status, That Counts," p. 6.)

Most people would gladly serve mankind if somehow they could get it over with once, preferably with applause and recognition. ("But for a Small Moment," p. 446.)

We may feel underused, underwhelmed, and underappreciated, even as we ironically ignore unused opportunities for service which are all about us. ("'True Believers in
Christ,'" p. 136.)

Sometimes we are tested not only by the requirement that we place certain things on the altar of sacrifice and service, but also by the trial of circumstances that seem to
prevent us from placing a portion of self on the altar. ("It's Service, Not Status, That Counts," p. 6.)

The Lord's work is not usually performed on a luxuriant landscape, but, said Jacob, in "the poorest spot in all the land of [the] vineyard"(see Jacob 5:21, 70). The
world's Caesars pay little heed to such workers. ("'Meek and Lowly,'" p. 55.)

We so often depersonalize our assistance to others that we might be called "checkbook Christians." We pay our taxes and offerings and unintentionally move away
from the personal acts of brotherhood. (A Time to Choose, pp. 63-64.)

We are the clinical material God has given us to work on in this estate. He lets us practice on each other. That means failure, pain, frustration, and deep disappointment
as well as success. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 36.)

We can't lead, or draw, others to the Lord unless we stand closer to Him than they do! (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 36.)

Sometimes the gears of proffered help do not mesh with the gears of received help. But even so, we should not shift into neutral; we ought to go on trying. (All These
Things Shall Give Thee Experience, pp. 81-82.)

To withdraw into our private sanctuaries not only deprives others of our love, our talents, and our service, but it also deprives us of chances to serve, to love, and to be
loved. ("A More Excellent Way", p. 89.)

Of a truth, those who can easily bend their knees in prayer do not feel they are stooping when they bend to help a neighbor in need. (Of One Heart, p. 14.)

Frequently, we busily search for group service projects, which are surely needed and commendable, when quiet, personal service is also urgently needed. Sometimes
the completing of an occasional group service project ironically salves our consciences when, in fact, we are constantly surrounded by a multitude of opportunities for
individual service. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 55.)

We should strive to render significant, though often quiet, service, instead of superficial service and rushed relationships. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience,
p. 56.)

There are so many times when genuine human service means giving graciously our little grain of sand, placing it reverently to build the beach of brotherhood. We get no
receipt, and our little grain of sand carries no brand; its identity is lost, except to the Lord. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 63.)

There are times when one of the greatest acts of service we can perform is to stop something. The emotional chain of reaction and overreaction can come at us like
electric voltage; it is very tempting to simply pass along. But we must say, "Let it stop with me." Brave but battered French soldiers in World War I finally held against
an invading enemy at a place called Verdun, where the solemn password was "They shall not pass." At times we too should be stern, sweet sentries willing to expose
ourselves to misunderstanding and pain in order to keep undesirable things from spreading any farther. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 64.)

We must lose our life for His sake-not just any cause. There are those carefully masqueraded versions of service to others that are really ego exercises coated with a
thin layer of public interest. One sees it all the time, especially when some politicians have some temporary glee as their selfish interests appear to be visibly aligned with
the public good; they almost enjoy it too much, suggesting it is not a regular experience. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 69.)

Christ didn't wait to mount the cross to sacrifice Himself until He was guaranteed that all people would appreciate and accept His gift and His message. (Wherefore, Ye
Must Press Forward, p. 6.)

Those who were able in life to give place for gospel things will have, thereby, found a place in the next world that will provide forthem even more opportunities for
service; while those who were shrunken by selfishness in this life, jettisoning inconvenient babies and aging parents, will have a chance, perhaps first-hand, to face those
who were so dispatched or disregarded. (Things As They Really Are, p. 115.)

Shortcomings

Let us not be too long-suffering with our own shortcomings. (Ensign, November 1980, p. 15.)

Only Jesus was perfect in all things, including love and meekness. Even the greatest of mortal prophets fall short of Christ's high and perfect standards. Thus, as
members of the Church, if we can see the life of discipleship, whether for ourselves or for the prophets, as a combination of proving, reproving, and improving, we will
be much better off. (Ensign, November 1984, p. 10.)

Part of the marvel and the wonder of God's "marvelous work and a wonder" will be how perfect Divinity mercifully used us-imperfect humanity. (Ensign, November
1984, p. 11.)

Sign-Seeking

Craving a sign is actually an inversion of the teacher-pupil relationship: The pupil demands of a Divine teacher that he perpetually produce proof-when it is the pupil
who must produce! (A Time to Choose, p. 65.)

Sin

God's counsel aligns us and conjoins us with the great realities of the universe; whereas sin empties, isolates, and separates us, confining us to the solitary cell of
selfishness. Hence the lonely crowd in hell. (Ensign, May 1985, p. 71.)

Why do some of our youth risk engaging in ritual prodigalism, intending to spend a season rebelling and acting out in Babylon and succumbing to that devilishly
democratic "everybody does it"? Crowds cannot make right what God has declared to be wrong. Though planning to return later, many such stragglers find that
alcohol, drugs, and pornography will not let go easily. Babylon does not give exit permits gladly. It is an ironic implementation of that ancient boast: "One soul shall not
be lost." (Moses 4:1.) (Ensign, November 1988, p. 33.)

Sin brings sameness; it shrinks us to addictive appetites and insubordinate impulses. For a brief surging, selfish moment, sin may create the illusion of individuality, but
only as in the grunting, galloping Gadarene swine! (See Matt. 8:28-32.) (Ensign, November 1991, p. 30.)

The raucousness and the shouting of sin, the Cain-like glorying in it, is also the sound of pain trying to erase itself. ("Insights from My Life," p. 199.)

It is so much more difficult for us to carry the cross when our back is already bent with the burdens of bad behavior. ("Taking Up the Cross," p. 259.)

There is no sin that is truly private, for ere long what is done privately will be justified and promoted publicly. A man cannot, forlong, be good when the sun is high in the
sky but then be bad as night comes, for such a one is divided against himself. (Look Back at Sodom, pp. 11-12.)

[We must] sharpen our sensing of the sulfurous sins about us today which threaten us with deterioration and cataclysm, as more and more people worship at the altar of
appetite and also seek to force the orthodoxy of relativism on others. The forces of evil now march to a louder and louder cadence called "in consequence of evils and
designs which do and will exist in the hearts of conspiring men in the last days. " (D&C 89:4.) (Look Back at Sodom, pp. 27-28.)

The sewage of sin is so devastating as it rolls downstream in life. (A Time to Choose, p. 14.)

Iniquity is perspective-shrinking, since it increasingly diminishes one's perception of redemptive reality. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 8.)

Sin is a special form of insanity. It reflects a kind of blackout in which we either lack or lose perspective about the consequences of our thoughts, words, and actions.
(A Time to Choose, p. 15.)

Sin, and time not well spent, can erode even bright spiritual experiences unless we are constantly active and growing. (A Time to Choose, p. 64.)

Of all the stumbling blocks, personal sins are clearly the largest and most retarding. Before we can receive all that God has for us, we must first make room by giving
away our sins. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 91.)

Even when we repent, we still cannot recycle the time lost nor do retroactively the good deeds that might have been. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, pp. 26-27.)

So far as our real self-interests are concerned, sin is irrational even when measured merely in the dimension of time. It is insanity when viewed by the eyes of eternity.

(Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 74.)

Those who are so parochial as to think that what is unseen cannot be unethical neglect the reality that there are always at least His two piercing eyes watching.
(Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 9.)

No wonder we despair when we sin, because we act against our own interests and against who we really are. When we are imprisoned by iniquity, we turn the cell
lock on ourselves. (Things As They Really Are, p. 8.)

Sinners consistently mistake a passing mood for a basic need. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 25.)

When sin scalds the tastebuds of the soul we lose our appetite for true sweetness. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 73.)

To cease sinning is to begin living. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 61.)

While sins are individual, their accumulations have macro consequences. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 81.)

It is our giving heed to temptations by dallying over them and by anticipating, savoring, and recycling them that gets us into trouble. Jesus' character is such that He was
consistently decisive and dismissive as to temptation and sin. There is no equivocation in Himregarding evil. He and His Father can make no allowance for sin (see
D&C 1:31)-because of the terrible toll sin exacts from the happiness of all those they love. (Lord, Increase Our Faith, pp. 23-24.)

We mortals tend to tolerate our own little clusters of sin. We rationalize that we can dismiss these whenever we really want to. The trouble is that these "squatters," too,
come to have "rights." By means of their persistent presence, they take over more than we ever intended; whereas to give no heed means to give no foothold, however
small. To delay their eviction is, in effect, to "heed" and accommodate the temptation. (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 24.)

Gross sins arise ominously and steadily out of the swamp of self-indulgence and self-pity. But the smaller sins breed there, too, like insects in the mud, including the
coarsening of language. (Ensign, May 1995, p. 67.)

Once the telestial sins are left behind and henceforth avoided, the focus falls ever more upon the sins of omission. These omissions signify a lack of qualifying fully for
the celestial kingdom. Only greater consecration can correct these omissions, which have consequences just as real as do the sins of commission. (Ensign, November
1995, p. 23.)

Single Women

We have special admiration for the unsung but unsullied single women among whom are some of the noblest daughters of God. These sisters know that God loves them
individually and distinctly. They make wise career choices even though they cannot now have the most choice career. Though in their second estate they do not have
their first desire, they still overcome the world.These sisters who cannot now enrich the institution of their own marriage so often enrich other institutions in society. They
do not withhold their blessings simply because some blessings are now withheld from them. (Ensign, May 1978, p. 11.)

The sense of deprivation that can occur in the life of a single woman in her forties who feels she has no prospects of marriage is real. Yet some deprivations are but
delayed blessings, which, if endured well, constitute the readying of reservoirs into which a generous God will pour "all that he hath." Indeed, it will be the Malachi
measure: "There shall not be room enough to receive it." (Mal. 3:10.) (We Will Prove Them Herewith, pp. 28-29.)

Skepticism

Skeptics are not only smug, but are pathetically provincial and insular. Skeptics come to believe strongly in skepticism, and they are very orthodox. Far from being
liberating, skepticism leads men into cruel, conceptual cul de sacs. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 77.)

Faith proceeds on to promised knowledge. It develops us and it delivers us to new data. Skepticism starts with some unprovable declarations and ends there too.
(Deposition of a Disciple, p. 18.)

If you look closely, you will be able to see many so-called skeptics who keep one eye on the dikes of disbelief and who seem to have a small rowboat nearby.
(Deposition of a Disciple, p. 86.)

Those who demand a "voiceprint" of the "voice of the Lord" probably would not like His doctrines anyway (see John 6:66). The things of the Spirit are to be "sought by
faith"; they are not to be seen through slit-eyed skepticism. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 32.)

Social Causes

The Church and its members can and should cooperate in seeing that the community chores are done without letting others use or exploit us-without unconsciously
finding ourselves marching to the cadence of a cause which is called by other voices for other purposes. ("For the Power Is in Them " Mormon Musings, p. 22.)

Society

Only reform and self-restraint, institutional and individual, can finally rescue society! Only a sufficient number of sin-resistant souls can change the marketplace. As
Church members, we should be part of that sin-resistant counterculture. Instead, too many members are sliding down the slope, though perhaps at a slower pace.
(Ensign, May 1993, p. 77.)

Is our society beyond the point of return? One lesson of Nineveh is that we must not give up. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 19.)

Solutions

The wrong kind of help-however well motivated or lavishly administered-can be harmful. One does not run about indiscriminately with a jackhammer in times of
earthquake, though a jackhammer might be needed in some situations. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 70.)

Pat solutions are usually shortcuts which really don't take us any place but which seem to. One early, easy, and wrong answer was given by a status-ful individual who
was very, very anxious to be the leader, when he said ages ago: "I will redeem all mankind that one soul shall not be lost." ("A More Excellent Way", p. 47.)

Sophistry

The sophist, who is often a carrier of cleverness, is really an intellectual guerrilla, a forlorn man without a country who draws his delight and satisfaction from the
process of verbal combat and encounter itself; he does not seek resolution, but disruption. He has no homeland and, therefore, seeks always to fight his battles on the
homefront of the believer. The sophist has nothing to defend. He takes no real risks because he believes in nothing. Perhaps, in a strange and twisted way, he wants to
create anomy and drift by using the sword of speciousness to cut other men away from the eternal things that anchor them. (A Time to Choose, p. 31.)

Spirit World

Death does not suddenly bestow upon the disbeliever full awareness of all reality, thereby obviating the need for any faith. Instead, what follows death is a continuum of
the basic structure in mortality-until the Judgment Day, when every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is the Christ (see Rom. 14:11; Philip. 2:10;
D&C 76:110). Until then, we "walk by faith, not by sight" (2 Cor. 5:7). How will God ensure this condition inthe spirit world? We do not know. Yet He has certainly
so handled the second estate in relation to the first estate, hasn't He? The memories of the first estate are not accessible in the second estate. The spirit world will be so
arranged that there will be no legitimate complaints later over the justice and mercy of God (see Mosiah 27:31; Alma 12:15). (That Ye May Believe, p. 94.)

Spiritual Experiences

President Marion G. Romney observed that we would have more spiritual experiences if we did not talk about them so much! As if having them were more important
than benefitting from them, some lust after spiritual experiences rather than desiring the substance of such experiences: "Ask not, that ye may consume it on your lusts,
but that ye will serve the true and living God" (Morm. 9:28). Perhaps, in recounting their spiritual experiences, some may unconsciously wish to demonstrate their
ascendancy; just as some academics, in a sort of intellectual imperialism, enjoy the knowing more than they enjoy utilizing what is known. This illustrates the old
problem of the desire for preeminence, which can take so many forms. (That Ye May Believe, pp. 69-70.)

Even a touching spiritual moment can be so quickly lost in the bustle of an afternoon's traffic jam, in the cares of tonight's phone calls, or because of the pressures
brought by tomorrow's mail. (We Talk of Christ, We Rejoice in Christ, p. 112.)

Spiritual Growth

The calisthenics of spiritual growth involve isometrics, the pitting of the emerging self against the stern resistance of the old self. (Ensign, November 1983, p. 55.)

Spiritual housework is done room by room and corner by corner. In some seasons of our lives, this is supplemented by inspirationally induced bursts of spring cleaning.
(Men and Women of Christ, p. 27.)

While events often induce submissiveness, one's development need not be dramatic or tied to a single moment; it can occur steadily in seemingly ordinary, daily settings.
If we are meek, a rich and needed insight can be contained in reproof. A new calling can beckon us away from comfortable routine and from competencies already
acquired. One may be stripped of accustomed luxury in order that the malignant mole of materialism be removed. (Ensign, May 1985, p. 72.)

Spiritual refinement is not only to make the gross more pure but to further refine the already fine! Hence, said Peter, we should not think a "fiery trial" to be "some
strange thing." (1 Pet. 4:12.) (Ensign, May 1991, p. 90.)

Alma asked some members of the Church how they felt now-at the moment-about spiritual things. (Alma 5:26.) He was simply underscoring the recurring reality of
lapsed literacy in spiritual things, a condition for the disciple as much to be feared as arthritis in acrobats. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 78.)

The developmental dimensions of discipleship and the rigorous calisthenics essential to continuing Christian commitment insure us against premature access to power.
Our Father also shields usfrom Icarian insights-dazzling sunbursts of celestial sense which we cannot comprehend. Otherwise, like Icarus, we might fly too high and too
close to the sun on wings which premature proximity melts, sending us crashing back to earth. (A Time to Choose, pp. 29-30.)

Perhaps what seems stern, even harsh, as a required experience is merely the necessary crust around the sweetbread of spiritual progress. (Even As I Am, p. 46.)

Only a few come to this mortal experience with substantial saintliness already developed. Rather, our individual best is presently but the bud of possibility. Even so,
these buds of possibility-the early stages of divine attributes-are unmistakably there. While unfolding and enlarging over time, these key qualities should also "grow
together," producing full felicity. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 42.)

Our spiritual development is to be achieved amid differentially dispensed measures of time. For some of the unwell and aged, unwanted time can be like taffy to be
shaken free of. Others are required to endure the sudden karate chop of changed circumstances. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 122.)

Spiritual Stirrings

Some do not own up even to the small spiritual stirrings within them; they are not intellectually honest. When in the later Judgment there is access to the seismographs of
the soul, I predict there will be some very interesting recordings that can be introduced as evidence. Agrippa had such a moment. Probably Pilate also. We are often in
the presence of a good and powerful person, or truth. Sometimes it is not until later that we remember our hearts burned within us, but the record will so show.
(Deposition of a Disciple, p. 18.)

Standards

What we are seeing now in so many situations is a more rigorous setting of standards for commercial relationships, but also a simultaneous, cheek-by-jowl retreat from

                                          is somewhat like building more lifeboats and de-emphasizing swimming lessons. (Deposition of a Disciple,

The Church sets standards for us in many areas, but many of the standards of personal performance must be set by us. An unwillingness to set standards or goals for
ourselves, of course, can result in a Mormon malaise, going nowhere-but doing it very anxiously. (Deposition of a Disciple, pp. 71-72.)

What we are seeing now in so many situations is a more rigorous setting of standards for commercial relationships, but also a simultaneous, cheek-by-jowl retreat from
standard setting in personal behavior. This is somewhat like building more lifeboats and de-emphasizing swimming lessons. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 22.)

In a society in which "anything goes," its members will learn too late that everything has gone! (The Smallest Part, p. 22.)

The Church is pulling away from the world at a rate that would be noticeable even if the world were standing still in its standards. This is because the world is pulling
away even from the standards it once held. Thus the Church and the world are parting company like two speeding cars going in opposite directions. (Deposition of a
Disciple, p. 63.)

Mortals who lose their bearings then proceed to lose their souls. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 27.)

Secular standards so often constitute a naive Maginot-Line morality that is quickly outflanked by the reality of what occurs when men and women try to live without
God in the world. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 92.)

Status

Some followers [of the Prophet Joseph Smith] became disaffected, but later returned-including once-statusful men like Oliver Cowdery, Martin Harris, and Thomas B.
Marsh. Yet these men voted with their feet to rejoin and reconcile with the kingdom. The true doctrines drew them back, however, and the only status sought or
conferred was membership, once again, in the Lord's church. (Ensign, November 1984, p. 10.)

In heaven, Christ's lofty name was determined to be the only name on earth offering salvation to all mankind. (See Acts 4:12; 2 Ne. 25:20; see also Abr. 3:27.) Yet the
Mortal Messiah willingly lived so modestly, even as a person "of no reputation." (Philip. 2:7.) (Ensign, May 1989, p. 63.)

For those of us who are too concerned about status or being last in line or losing our place, we need to read again those words about how the "last shall be first" and
"the first shall be last." (Matt. 19:30.) (Plain and Precious Things, p. 54.)

A "Who's Who" is not needed in a church that teaches us all our real identity and in which there is, significantly, a democracy of dress in the holy temples.
(Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 84.)

Stereotyping

The world has been led to lazy stereotypes of prophets as being wild and fanatic people to be ignored. Such stereotyping is the work of him who has also encouraged
art that portrays aneffeminate Jesus. Lucifer just cannot bring himself to present things as they really are, for the truth is not in him. (Things As They Really Are, pp. 78-
79.)

Stereotyping reflects both intellectual laziness and lovelessness. The straight and narrow path leads us to a wide horizon of discovering and knowing people, but
stereotyping confines us into the solitude of a conceptual cul-de-sac. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 96.)

Stewardship

How we view ourselves, others, and the universe really does shape everything else! Our view of such strategic matters determines, among many other things, whether
while on this planet we will act as concerned stewards or merely as transient pleasure-seekers and alien exploiters. A genuine world religion requires a world (not a
worldly) view-better still, a gospel with a galactic view! (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 10.)

Still Small Voice

Whatever the decibels of decadence, these need not overwhelm the still, small voice! Some of the best sermons we will ever hear will be thus prompted from the pulpit
of memory-to an audience of one! (Ensign, May 1993, p. 77.)

Imperviousness to the promptings of the still small voice of God will also mean that we have ears but cannot hear, not only the promptings of God but also the pleas of
men. (A Time to Choose, pp. 59-60.)

Strait and Narrow Path

At the risk of detracting from the usual imagery associated with the straight and narrow path, pressing forward seems more like striding in the surf than walking on dry
land. If we don't press forward in water, we are quickly taken in another direction. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 39.)

There are times when the only way the strait and narrow path can be followed is on one's knees! (Ensign, May 1982, p. 38.)

Christ's doctrines pertaining to the plan of salvation stand like sentinel scriptures to mark and light the way. His gospel guardrails line the strait and narrow path to
steady us, nudge us, and even jar us for the sake of our spiritual safety! (Ensign, May 1984, p. 22.)

Of course God is forgiving! But He knows the intents of our hearts. He also knows what good we might have done while AWOL. In any case, what others do is no
excuse for the disciple from whom much is required. (See Alma 39:4.) Besides, on the straight and narrow path there are simply no corners to be cut. (See D&C
82:3.) (Ensign, November 1988, p. 33.)

There is a real risk that members of the Church-particularly the young-may perceive the "strait and narrow way" too narrowly. References to this concept appear many
times in the scriptures, essentially as a description of a clearly marked corridor to salvation and exaltation-a path of high adventure for the brave. It is not for the
intolerant. It is not an ecclesiastical country club situated on a narrow theological terrace. (A Time to Choose, pp. 17-18.)

The "way" is as wide as infinity in terms of its focus on love and truth. It confines us simply by marking those peril points along the path of life that only a fool would

To risk leaving the straight and narrow way is to risk sliding into sensuality or tumbling into terror-so much so that divine reminders are appropriate. (A Time to
Choose, p. 21.)

Far from the smugness which some wrongly see in the straight and narrow path; far from the Jonah-like pattern of viewing mankind in its misery safely from the hillside;
far from disengaging us from service to the multitude-the Gospel of Jesus Christ calls us to help others and hurry home where a divine parent is expecting us. (A Time to
Choose, pp. 21-22.)

There is not one strait and narrow path for the officers-the chosen-and another for the enlisted men. We are all to experience life "according to the flesh"; there is no
other way, for it is the way to immortality and eternal life. (Sermons Not Spoken, p. 26.)

As we look about us we perceive that unfortunately some Church members are in the "broad" way; most are scattered all along the straight and narrow path. The
enlightened are moving forward steadily toward becoming men and women of Christ (see 3 Ne. 27:27; Hel. 3:29-30). Others are moving, but only irregularly. Some
are dawdling. Still others are milling round the exits and entrances. A few have turned back or been turned aside. Others are moving but, having pursued the wrong
azimuth, find themselves caught in various cul-de-sacs. In order to resume the journey they must back up in full view of other climbers. These are among the moments
when some find out whether they are "ashamed" of the gospel of Jesus Christ, including its grand principle of repentance. (Men and Women of Christ, pp. 1, 3.)

Perhaps the tilt to the telestial occurs because many feel less compromised when they are led carefully down the paved, gently descending, wide way, on which there is
no exhilaration, whereas in climbing up the straight and narrow way, one seems to notice every chuckhole and all the loose gravel. (All These Things Shall Give Thee
Experience, p. 2.)

The straight and narrow way stretches before us. It is not a freeway or an escalator; it is not even a gentle slope upward. There are no turnoffs and few scenic views or
pauses for one to catch his breath. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. xi.)

Lest the initiate think he is hemmed in because of the straightness and narrowness of the way, that analogy pertains to doctrines and behavior, for there is a wide world
with remarkable room for creativity in our service to others and in the application of our God-given talents. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 33.)

Pressing forward without looking back too much is recommended for the same wise reasons some are told not to look down when climbing, lest the heights dizzy them.
All of us are acrophobes so far as the ascending straight and narrow is concerned. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 87.)

Those who insist on walking in their own way will find that all such paths, however individualistic in appearance, will converge at that wide way and broad gate-where
there will be a tremendous traffic jam. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 12.)

Our posture on the straight and narrow path is not to be one of resigned, rounded shoulders accompanied by downcast eyes. God's invitation to "come home" and
Jesus' to "come, follow me" are not invitations to a contraction of one's soul; rather they are invitations to expansion and enrichment in both the here and now and the
there and then. (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 119.)

Submissiveness

There can be no conditions attached to unconditional surrender to God. Unconditional surrender means we cannot keep our obsessions, possessions, or cheering
constituencies. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 92.)

We express our desires out of an imperfect perception, and upon learning the Father's desires, we yield to His eternal perspective and purposes. It is the only surrender
that is also a victory! (Even As I Am, pp. 47-48.)

To be submissive "even as a child doth submit to his Father" is a hard saying, but it is more than poetry; it reminds us of our true genealogy and our true possibility.
(Even As I Am, p. 95.)

Spiritual submissiveness is so much more than bended knee or bowed head. (Ensign, May 1985, p. 70.)

Spiritual submissiveness means community and communion as the mind and the heart become settled. We then spend much less time deciding, and much more time
serving; otherwise, the more hesitation, the less inspiration. (Ensign, May 1985, p. 71.)

Most forms of holding back are rooted in pride or are prompted by the mistaken notion that somehow we are diminished by submission to God. Actually, the greater
the submission, the greater the expansion! (On Becoming a Disciple-Scholar, p. 22.)

Subjection to God is really emancipation. (Ensign, May 1985, p. 71.)

Some are so proud they never learn of obedience and spiritual submissiveness. They will have very arthritic knees on the day when every knee shall bend. There will be
no gallery then to play to; all will be participants! (Ensign, May 1987, p. 70.)

Why do we resist and resent life's developmental and obedience tests? By declaring, "I will walk in my own way and do that which is right in my own eyes," we reject
the curriculum of the mortal school in which we are irrevocably enrolled. (See Judg. 21:25; D&C 1:16.) There is only one exit gate leading unto eternal life. Unhappily,
only a few find it-but not because God is exclusionary, but because they exclude God from their lives. Even God cannot bring to pass a reconciliation involving only one
party. (Ensign, November 1988, p. 33.)

Our submissiveness to the Lord must be real, not the equivalent of obeying the speed limit only as long as the highway patrolman is there in his pace car. (We Will
Prove Them Herewith, p. 7.)

Success

We should be genuinely glad when others succeed; if we cannot at first cheer, then let us at least not sneer. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 37.)
Copyright (c) 2005-2009, Infobase Media Corp.                                                                                                          Page 261 / 1773
Since time is so precious a commodity, we must not be dismayed when the time permitted to savor success seems so small on occasion. High moments are soon
followed by fresh challenges. It could scarcely be otherwise, for none of us would for long want to be banqueting over our blessings while others stood without, waiting
for the touch of our lives and talents. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 125.)

for the touch of our lives and talents. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 125.)

Suffering

Righteous sorrow and suffering carve cavities in the soul that will become later reservoirs of joy. (Meek and Lowly, p. 11.)

There are many who suffer so much more than the rest of us: some go agonizingly; some go quickly; some are healed; some are given more time; some seem to linger.
There are variations in our trials but no immunities. Thus, the scriptures cite the fiery furnace and fiery trials. (Dan. 3:6-26; 1 Pet. 4:12.) Those who emerge successfully
from their varied and fiery furnaces have experienced the grace of the Lord which He says is sufficient. (Ether 12:27.) Even so, such emerging individuals do not rush to
line up in front of another fiery furnace in order to get an extra turn! However, since the mortal school is of such short duration, our tutoring Lord can be the
Schoolmaster of the compressed curriculum. (Ensign, May 1997, pp. 11-12.)

Suffering is the sweat of salvation. (A Time to Choose, p. 42.)

[The true believer] is ready to follow the Lord into soul-stretching experiences even if it means enrolling [in] the schooling of suffering and paying his tuition. ("'True
Believers in Christ,'" p. 138.)

Only the Lord can compare crosses! ("Taking Up the Cross," p. 255.)

We may genuinely wonder if any good can come out of a particular situation of suffering. Whether the sufferer is actually growing and developing in some needed way
may not be apparent to us. We may wonder whether the suffering of another person provides an opportunity for the rest of us for expressions of service, prayer,
empathy, and attentiveness that we need to develop further. (That Ye May Believe, p. 108.)

In life, the sandpaper of circumstances often smooths our crustiness and patiently polishes our rough edges. There is nothing pleasant about it, however. And the Lord
will go to great lengths in order to teach us a particular lesson and to help us to overcome a particular weakness, especially if there is no other way. In such
circumstances, it is quite useless for us mortals to try to do our own sums when it comes to suffering. We can't make it all add up because clearly we do not have all the
numbers. Furthermore, none of us knows much about the algebra of affliction. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, pp. 67-68.)

With regard to human suffering there is no way in which the misery caused by misused agency could be removed without removing agency. ("Not My Will, But Thine",
p. 71.)

Since the Most Innocent suffered the most, our own cries of "Why?" cannot match His. But we can utter the same, submissive word, "nevertheless " (Matt. 26:39).
(Ensign, November 1995, p. 24.)

The more one's will is "swallowed up," the more his afflictions, rather than necessarily being removed, will be "swallowed up in the joy of Christ" (Alma 31:38). (Ensign,
November 1995, p. 24.)

Talk Shows

Instead of being communicating neighbors, we are flooded with talk shows, some of which feature not real conversation but exhibitionism and verbal voyeurism among
virtual strangers. (Ensign, May 1993, p. 77.)

The recurring irony of some talk shows is [that they] often feature those who bare their inmost souls to strangers but cannot converse effectively with spouse or
children! (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 92.)

Teaching

Let all gospel instruction in the home or classroom be a genuine experience in learning-not merely doctrinal Ping-Pong. (Ensign, November 1980, p. 15.)

Jesus loved people enough to teach them specific things. He did not merely live among people as so many of us do, for co-existence is not real brotherhood. Teaching
is a significant form of service, just as is witnessing to one's neighbor. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 68.)

We live and teach amid a wide variety of individual personalities, experiences, cultures, languages, interests, and needs. Only the Spirit can compensate fully for such
differences. "The sword of the Spirit" is the penetrating "word of God" (Eph. 6:17). Thus holy scripture and the words of living prophets occupy a privileged position
and they also perform a special task. Teaching by the Spirit employs what the Prophet Joseph Smith called "the language of inspiration." (That Ye May Believe, p. 39.)

When we speak about teaching by the Spirit it is not about a mystical process which removes responsibility from the missionary or teacher for prayerful and pondering
preparation. Teaching by the Spirit is not the lazy equivalent of going on "automatic pilot." We still need a carefully worked out "flight plan." Studying out something in
one's own mind is, in itself, an invitation to theSpirit in our preparations as well as in our presentations. We must not err, like Oliver Cowdery, by taking no thought
except to ask God for His Spirit (D&C 9:7). The Lord is especially willing to take the lead of an already informed mind in which things have been "studied out."
Additionally, if we already care about those to be taught, the Lord can inspire us with any customized counsel or emphasis which may be needed. (That Ye May
Believe, pp. 40-41.)

Somewhere between the extreme of "cat's cradle" classrooms and the other extreme of hypertense, activist teachers (who do not undestand the role of contemplation,
reflection, and worship and who would empty the classrooms of the Church and have us all march off heedlessly to become involved) there is a golden mean wherein
teaching is outcome oriented, in which teaching makes fresh demands of us with our consent-a kind of teaching which brings life and lessons together. Such teaching
generates faith which moves us to productive action in behalf of others because the gospel is true. And we continue to know that it is true because we constantly
witness it working! ("For the Power Is in Them " Mormon Musings, pp. 7-8.)

Instruction must be of a high quality. Attendees must feel the Spirit as they are taught. These individuals need the bread of life, not crumbs from the table. After all, the

("For the Power Is in Them " Mormon Musings, p. 7.)

Since we can only speak the smallest part of what we feel, anyway, we should see to it that the "smallest part" is taught by the Spirit. (That Ye May Believe, p. 45.)

Television

We are lathered with soap operas in need of nothing so much as soap-for the scrubbing of themselves! Some seriously maintain that media violence and sleaze leave
consumers untouched. But revenue is received from commercials precisely because of their influence. Either we deserve reforms, or sponsors deserve refunds! (Ensign,
May 1993, p. 77.)

Temples

Temple attendance is not a guarantee that we will become better, but it provides a powerful and pointed invitation to become better. The ways of the world receive
constant reinforcement-should not the ways of heaven? ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 133.)

Temples are designed not only to endow and to seal us but also to refine us. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, pp. 125-26.)

While the temple is a place of service, work done there is not a substitute for Christian service in the outside world. It can be a powerful spur thereto, however, by
reminding us of the need for sacrifice-not the giving of just our means but also of ourselves. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 133.)

Temple work is not an escape from the world but a reinforcing of our need to better the world while preparing ourselves for another and far better world. Thus, being
in the Lord's house can help us to be different from the world in order to make more difference in the world. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 133.)

Through a democracy of dress, temple attendance reminds us that God is no respecter of persons (Acts 10:34). The symbolic purity of white likewise reminds us that
God is to have a pure people (D&C 100:16). ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 135.)

Temptation

Jesus noticed the tremendous temptations that came to him, but He did not process and reprocess them. Instead, He rejected them promptly. If we entertain
temptations, soon they begin entertaining us! Turning these unwanted lodgers away at the doorstep of the mind is one way of giving "no heed." Besides, these would-be
lodgers are actually barbarians who, if admitted, can be evicted only with great trauma. (Ensign, May 1987, p. 71.)

So much will depend upon our developing and using righteous reflexes. Reprocessing the same temptation, again and again, is unnecessary and unwise. (Ensign,
February 1986, p. 19.)

The tempter's triad of tools, identified by Jesus as temptation, persecution, and tribulation, will be relentlessly used. (See Matt. 12:21; Luke 8:13.) (Ensign, November
1982, p. 68.)

Cycling and recycling the same temptation (instead of rejecting such blandishments out of hand) is not only to risk one's soul, again and again, but is to bring on fatigue,
so that the Adversary may be able to do indirectly what we will not let him do directly. (The Smallest Part, p. 51.)

Succumbing to temptation is not the result of one's being grossly overprogrammed, but of grossly undervaluing oneself! (Nothwithstanding, p. 79.)

A disciple would avoid being in an earthly environment that perpetually presses him to compromise. Joseph finally fled out of the presence of Potiphar's wife. Even then,
he didn't escape unrighteous judgment, but he refused to become bitter because he had been falsely accused. Chances are that some of us would do well to flee (more
often than we do) those settings in which Satan can so incessantly work upon us. By refusing to escape, we can place ourselves in circumstances where temptations
could become more than we can bear. It is our obligation to get out of such circumstances. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 67.)

Going to "Lucifer's Lounge" is not only risky for us, but may also mislead, divert, or discourage another weaker colleague. It is up to us to use our agency to make
certain that we are not tempted above that which we are able to bear. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 67.)

In coping with temptation we can usually interrupt the temptation by a change of thought, scenery, or circumstance. Alcoholics on the road to reform don't hang around
bars. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 67.)

Our temptations, small or large, seem to match the moment. The evil one also avoids using that which is most apt to be deflected by us. (Even As I Am, p. 72.)

Brooding over temptations can produce self-pity and a false sense of nobility. Prolonged consideration of a temptation only increases the risks-but it does not increase
our options: the two options and the consequences remain the same regardless of our dallying. Moreover, protracted consideration of a temptation does not increase
the justification to succumb-only our rationalization. (Even As I Am, p. 73.)

Just as personal goodness in mortality consists of accumulating service rather than a single act, so temptation is not a one-time thing either. The points of our personal
vulnerability, as Satan cunningly observes them, will be exploited. Lucifer will quote scripture if it helps, or cite supposed opportunities for us to do good. He will offer
chances for self-indulgence and even provide the preparatory self-pity-whatever might induce rationalization on our part. (Even As I Am, p. 76.)

There are simply too many bleached bones lying about the landscape which serve as haunting reminders of the importance of fleeing from the terrain of temptation.
(That My Family Should Partake, p. 116.)

Those confronted by large temptations usually got there by "setting themselves up" in small ways. Their dalliance has already caused them to look the other way as
some guerrillas are let into the palace grounds of the soul. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, pp. 77-78.)

Unlike Jesus, sometimes we first provide access for temptations. By paying even small heed to a temptation, we thus forget that temptations are like a poison gas-they
spread through the time and space available to them. Once inside and unrebuked, they are not easily evicted. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 44.)

Ten Commandments

Without the Decalogue there is decadence. (Ensign, November 1980, p. 14.)

Of the Ten Commandments, as originally given, eight were stated as "thou shalt nots" and two required affirmation.(See Ex. 20, Deut. 5, but also Lev. 19:18.) Jesus'
later statement cast the two great commandments as grand affirmatives (see Matt. 22:34-40). Our duties involve implementing ways of keeping the two great
commandments because they require us to "do" rather than to merely "abstain." Abstentions do not necessarily move us on to affirmative actions, and our duties
constitute the "thou shalts," in the gospel of Jesus Christ. ("'True Believers in Christ,'" pp. 135-36.)

Human misery is nothing more than the flip side of the Ten Commandments. Most of the news we read or watch on television represents, in one way or another, the
breeching of God's commandments, departures from the "great plan of our God." Different consequences emerge so quickly from different lifestyles. (We Talk of
Christ, We Rejoice in Christ, pp. 73-74.)

Testimony

Let us be articulate, for while our defense of the kingdom may not stir all hearers, the absence of thoughtful response may cause fledglings among the faithful to falter.
What we assert may not be accepted, but unasserted convictions soon become deserted convictions. ("'All Hell Is Moved,'" p. 179.)

My tongue cannot tell all I know. (Ensign, May 1976, p. 26.)

When we first cross the border of belief and enter the territory of testimony, that is a highly significant moment. We come through, as it were, a port of entry. The Spirit
has borne witness to us that Jesus is the Christ, that God lives, that other truths related to these are accepted by us. Our later experiences do not really represent the
recrossing of that border again and again, but are reminders and reassurances of the earlier resolve. One does not need perpetual reasons for reentry. (Deposition of a
Disciple, p. 51.)

Testing

Mortality without the dimension of temptation or trial would not be a full proving; it would be a school with soft credits and no hard courses. (We Will Prove Them
Herewith, p. 45.)

Knowing that one is in the midst of a testing time does not make the test any less real. The disciple is not able to wink slyly, as if he could cope with one hand tied
behind him. Instead, his teeth rattle, too. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 52.)

We [should not] be surprised if, having passed one test well, another seems to come so quickly. Was it not so for Him? He did not get three months off after the three
great temptations or a weekend at the seashore after delivering the Sermon on the Mount. He was not allowed to extend His triumphal entry into Jerusalem into a year-
long celebration. Quickly, so quickly, the realities of what He next had to do bore down upon Jesus. (Even As I Am, p. 66.)

The tests given to us here are given not because God is in doubt as to the outcome, but because we need to grow in order to be able to serve with full effectiveness in
the eternity to come. The relentless love of our Father in Heaven is such that in His omniscience He will not allow the cutting short some of the brief experiences we are
having here. To do so would be to deprive us of everlasting experiences and great joy there. What else would an omniscient and loving Father do, even if we plead
otherwise? He must at times say no. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 26.)

One may be stripped of accustomed luxury so that the malignant mole of materialism may be removed. One may be scorched by humiliation, so pride can be melted
away. Whatever we lack will get attention, one way or another. (Ensign, November 1995, p. 24.)

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is historically and rightly connected with the sense of annual blessings of the harvest. Such annualized pauses (whether for Christmas, Easter, etc.) can
cause us to ponder and reflect concerning all of that which is good. However, we should not only celebrate our annual Thanksgiving but gladly affirm by our attitudes
and behavior the great and continual blessing of life itself. (Local Thanksgiving speech [untitled] November 26, 1980.)

Though we live as neighbors, we function in geographical units. It is necessary and proper that we do the latter, but it is good, on occasions such as this, to gather in
love as neighbors-and as an appreciative community of believers. Thanksgiving is a time in which we can count our blessings and celebrate family life. We also stir
through our individual storehouses of memories, being nourished in the autumn and winter of our lives by what was placed there in times of spring and summer. Hence,
Thanksgiving is an especially poignant time of reflection for the widows and widowers who are here. Thanksgiving is a time, too, of hopeful anticipation for those few
parents who have prodigals who are still away-but for the harvest of whose spiritual homecoming they ceaselessly pray. ("Patience and the Law of the Harvest.")

Among so many things deserving of our deepest gratitude in this season of Thanksgiving is the feasting fulness of the Restoration. It is like a harvest basket which, to use
Jesus' metaphor, is a "good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over." (Luke 6:38.) This abundant harvest spares us from hungering because of
doctrinal deprivation. The lack of fulness has real consequences, especially for those who struggle, for instance, with adversity while trying to believe in a God of loving
purpose. Each of the key doctrines by itself, would help us. In combination, however, these doctrines can produce stronger faith by providingvital spiritual nourishment.
The Restoration is not only a harvest "running over," but it also brings back vital "plain and precious things"-the balanced essentials. (1 Ne. 13:26.) ("Fulness in the
Fulness of Times.")

Theocracy

Some dismiss the Church out of hand for not being trendy in its theology and for being authoritarian. To such I say, better a true theocracy with a little democracy than
a democracy without any theology. Yes, the kingdom of God is a kingdom; there is no "one man, one vote" rule between its King and its citizens. ("'All Hell Is Moved,'"
p. 177.)

In a decaying environment, the mind is the last redoubt of righteousness, and it must be preserved even amid bombardment by evil stimuli. (Ensign, May 1987, p. 71.)

Thoughts

In a decaying environment, the mind is the last redoubt of righteousness, and it must be preserved even amid bombardment by evil stimuli. (Ensign, May 1987, p. 71.)

The human mind is remarkably retentive. We must be careful of what we allow in our mind, for it will be there for a long time, reasserting itself at those very times when
we may be most vulnerable. Just as harmful chemicals heedlessly dumped in a vacant lot can later prove lethal, so toxic thoughts and the mulching of the wrong
memories in the vacant corner of the mind also take their toll. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 44.)

Time

Whereas the bird is at home in the air, we are clearly not at home in time-because we belong to eternity. Time, as much as any one thing, whispers to us that we are
strangers here. ("Patience," p. 220.)

How we spend our time is at least as good a measure of us as how we spend our money. An inventory of how we spend our disposable time will tell us where our
treasure is. (Matthew 6:19-21.) (Notwithstanding My Weakness, pp. 116-17.)

There are no idle hours; there are only idle people. In true righteousness there is serenity but there is an array of reminders that the "sacred present" is packed with
possibilities which are slipping by us, which are going away from us each moment. ("Taking Up the Cross," p. 260.)

Good management of one's time can actually make more time available for people. On a few occasions, in kindness and in love, we can help others avoid imposing on
our time inefficiently or inappropriately. Except for real crises, if we have relationships of trust, we can without fear indicate that a particular moment is not best for us,
offering a genuine alternative. There are examples of situations when even the Savior made others wait-for their own good. "Instant" help is not always the best help, if it
creates in others the unrealistic expectation that such mortal help is always available to them. (The Smallest Part, p. 49.)

Longevity does not automatically produce humility. The mere passage of time does not mean the automatic passing of milestones in personal development. (Even As I
Am, p. 47.)

To withhold some of oneself brings subtle consequences. There is always the irrevocable loss of misspent time. Time spent in indulging oneself cannot be spent
simultaneously in other ways. We cannot engage in murmuring and use that same time for praising. We cannot engage in griping at the very time we are consoling
others. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 98.)

Time, unlike some material things, cannot be recycled. (A Time to Choose, p. 13.)

We are often actually less generous with our time than with our money. We keep forgetting where our time comes from! (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience,
p. 73.)

Tithing

If we were spiritually ready for the law of consecration, there would be no poor among us. (D&C 49:20.) No wonder the Church stresses the law of tithing, a law to
prepare us for something higher. The world looks at the principle of tithing and sees a system of revenue; we look at it and see also a system of salvation, an
anticipation of consecration. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 87.)

Tragedy

Sin is the only real and lasting tragedy! (Ensign, May 1983, p. 11.)

[Speaking of a gymnast whose tragic tumble left her paralyzed in body, but vibrant in spirit and mind:] She fell not into paralysis but into saintliness. She becomes a
witness in a wheelchair. How tall she stands, and how much she stretches the souls of others! Her deprivation is like an excavation, the readying of a reservoir into
which a generous God, one day, will pour the Malachi measure of compensatory blessings, "that there shall not be room enough to receive it." (Mal. 3:10.) (Ensign,
May 1983, p. 11.)

Travel

Is it the terrain one traverses which is the true test of his life? If so, should those of us who travel in the jet age view with condescension the mileage logged by Jesus
during his mortal ministry? In those days "from Dan to Beersheba" seemed so sweeping, yet it involved only a little over a hundred miles. One day our travels about this
planet will seem quite provincial too when we are wafted from planet to planet. ("Grounded, Rooted, Established, and Settled," p. 18.)

Trends

As we consider the context in which we live, including various and vexing trends, it is ever to be borne in mind that the Church is surely not trendy, though too many of
its members, alas, follow the trends of the world. (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 31.)

Some trends need correcting, others accelerating. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 31.)

It is not only today's America that is in trouble. So are the next generations, who will live dangerously "downwind" from these contaminating conditions. (If Thou Endure
It Well, p. 25.)

Trust

It is better to trust and sometimes be disappointed than to be forever mistrusting though right occasionally. This is to endorse empathy, not naivete. ("Insights from My
Life," p. 199.)

It is better to trust and sometimes be disappointed than to be forever mistrusting though right occasionally. This is to endorse empathy, not naivete. ("Insights from My

Mostly, to avoid muttering, we need to trust more. So many of the things muttered about beforehand turn out to be marvelous experiences later, and we are inwardly,
and deservedly, ashamed for having grumbled. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 31.)

Trust in God

It is only by yielding to God that we can begin to realize His will for us. And if we truly trust God, why not yield to His loving omniscience? After all, He knows us and
our possibilities much better than do we. (Ensign, May 1985, p. 72.)

What we already know about God teaches us to trust him for what we do not know fully. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 56.)

For the faithful, what finally emerges is an understanding of "things as they really are" (Jacob 4:13), such as the reassuring realization that we are in the Lord's hands!
But, brothers and sisters, we were never really anywhere else! (Ensign, May 1985, p. 72.)

Mormon [declared]: "And now, I do not know all things; but the Lord knoweth all things which are to come; wherefore, he worketh in me to do according to his
will." [W of M 1:7; italics added.] Such is the trust that we need in God's omniscience, causing us to be entreated, freely, into participating in His purposes-and without
fretting. Such trust allows us to be concerned with making a good choice rather than brooding over whether or not we had a choice. Besides, if we cannot accept and
trust in the Lord's declaration that He has left us "free to choose," in which of His other declarations can we then trust? Being now limited in our information and limited
in our perception, it is a good time to trust God! (Even As I Am, p. 59.)

Thus it is that our faith and trust in our Heavenly Father, so far as this mortal experience is concerned, consists not simply of faith and gladness that He exists, but is also
a faith and trust that, if we are humble, He will tutor us, aiding our acquisition of needed attributes and experiences while we are in mortality. We trust not only the
Designer but also His design of life itself, including our portion thereof! (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 12.)

Coming to "put our trust in the living God" is not the work of a day or a season. Instead, this mortal school continues to the very end, when the final school bell rings for
each of us. (That Ye May Believe, p. 33.)

Truth

Salvational truths combine longevity and relevancy; they contain both span and significance! Education that is only "for a season" is narrow; it pertains only to a
knowledge of things as they temporarily are, like today's weather forecast or an airline schedule. Temporary facts are useful but terminal. ("The Inexhaustible Gospel,"
p. 146.)

We constantly need to distinguish between the truths which are useful and those which are crucial, and between truths which are important and those which are eternal.
The restored gospel gives us this special sense of proportion. (On Becoming a Disciple-Scholar, p. 6.)

In human affairs, erroneous and unchallenged assertions sometimes assume an undeserved aura of truth. While a response to this hopelessness may not create
conviction in disbelievers, it can bolster believers against the silent erosion of their own convictions. (Ensign, May 1983, p. 9.)

Truth, as Mount Sinai showed, transcends the importance of the terrain on which it is given. (Ensign, November 1984, p. 9.)

In point of value, longitudinal truth, when compared to truth which reflects reality as it exists in only a portion of one of the three great time zones-past, present, and
future-is like the Bible when it is compared with the single issue of a newspaper. (The Smallest Part, p. 5.)

Gospel truths about life and the human condition stand in stark contrast to the world's view; the world's solutions so often lead mankind into conceptual cul-de-sacs.
Without gospel truths, man's efforts to reach his goals are like the northbound explorer whodrove his dog sled feverishly northward on an ice pack that was flowing
southward-only to find himself farther from his destination at the end of a hard day's journey than he had been at dawn! (The Smallest Part, p. 36.)

The theology of truth about man, life, and the universe does not depend for its validity on acceptance by many, or even any. Only eight people were right about the
weather in Noah's time when being right really mattered. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 14.)

The gospel is continuing education at its best. However, the gospel isn't simply another building block to be fitted into the tower of truth; it is the tower of truth itself.
(Deposition of a Disciple, p. 16.)

Truth cuts across all three time zones-our premortal state, our second state (mortality), and the eternal future that is fashioned for us. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 48.)

Truth can be very threatening. We do not read, for instance, that the power structure in Jerusalem ever seriously searched the sermons of Jesus with a view to
understanding; the cognoscente concerned themselves with entrapment, not enlightenment. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 61.)

One wonders if the reaction to Jesus' first visit to Nazareth-rage-was not in some respects preferable to the deliberate disdain experienced in connection with his
second visit. Satan's stratagems are apparent: If one cannot face truth, then he can merely dismiss it by stereotyping or dismissing the source. Dismiss the message
because of the lowly messengers. (Even As I Am, p. 85.)

Truth does not eliminate the force of life's tragedies and frustrations, but it provides a context within which one can cope with them. (That My Family Should Partake,
p. 32.)

Christ's disciples should ever realize that wandering in the underbrush of the unimportant or in the forest of facts there are many "who are only kept from the truth
because they know not where to find it" (D&C 123:12). In our passion for equality we sometimes wrongly assume there is a democracy among truths. (That Ye May
Believe, p. 140.)

Intellectual embroidery is but an unreliable frill; the hardy and homely cloth of truth is to be found in the hardy gospel of Jesus Christ. (Of One Heart, p. 29.)

Bearers of truth are often victimized by partial truths. Partial truths can sometimes have such an influence as to make full falsehoods green with envy. (Meek and Lowly,
p. 108.)
Copyright (c) 2005-2009, Infobase Media Corp.                                                                                                            Page 266 / 1773
Trends do not change truths. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 3.)

Trends do not change truths. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 3.)

A dying civilization can, of course, be annoyed by the living Church. People who are cut to the very center by the truth, the laser of our Lord that emanates from the
living Church, will gladly "turn away their ears from the truth, and be turned unto fables" (2 Tim. 4:4) it is so much less painful. (Things As They Really Are, pp. 58-59.)

God, who does not grow weary of making all daisies alike and whose course is one eternal round, does not tire of certain truths as do we mortals. Nor does the
repetition of a true phrase reduce its relevancy; it vouches for its validity. (Things As They Really Are, p. 101.)

Universe

Wonder is added to wonder as temples and scriptures tell us of still other worlds-of a universe drenched in divine design, with, as it were, spiritual "cousins" in the
cosmos. (Ensign, May 1986, p. 36.)

We are enveloped in a planned universe, and we live on a purposeful planet; and these truths describe "things as they really are" (Jacob 4:13). No wonder the gospel is
such glorious and good news! (Ensign, November 1986, p. 54.)

"Worlds without number" have been created (Moses 1:33; see also John 1:3; Heb. 1:2; 22:3; D&C 93:10). These gospel truths are very significant assurances for us,
situated as we are on this tiny "speck of sand" at the outer edge of a minor galaxy, the Milky Way. Without the gospel's fulness, we would appear to be living during
one tick of the geological clock and in the midst of unexplained vastness. (Ensign, November 1987, p. 30.)

The Restoration gives us few details concerning the universe, of course, but from what we are given we know that we are not alone, and that we are in the midst of
meaning and unfolding, divine purposes. Though understandably desiring to know more, we do not presently possess the capacity to absorb more. Nor do we have an
adequate "security clearance." (If Thou Endure It Well, p. 81.)

Valiance

[Some Church] members are "honorable" but not "valiant." They are not really aware of the gap nor of the importance of closing it(see D&C 76:75,79 These
"honorable" individuals are certainly not miserable or wicked, nor are they unrighteous and unhappy. It is not what they have done, but what they have left undone that
is amiss. For example, if valiant, they could touch others deeply instead of merely being remembered pleasantly. (Ensign, November 1995, p. 22.)

Values

When we stop acknowledging the existence of fixed value points in the scheme of things, we stop navigating by these points. And having stopped steering, to use a
simple analogy, there is, at first, the naive, excited exclamation: "Look! No hands!" But this will be followed by the shocked realization: "Help! No brakes!" (That My
Family Should Partake, p. 37.)

Do not overpack the luggage you plan to take with you when you leave this world, for we simply cannot get most mortal things by celestial customs; only the eternal
things are portable. (Ensign, November 1974, p. 12.)

There is, as we all know, much talk about family values, but rhetoric, by itself, cannot bring reform. (Ensign, May 1994, p. 89.)

Where are those synagogues now in which it was once so desperately important for some to maintain their place rather than to confess publicly their belief in Jesus?
(See John 12:42-43.) (Sermons Not Spoken, p. 13.)

If the big things that really matter are finally going to work out in eternity, then the little things that go wrong mortally are not cause for desperation but perhaps only for a
little frustration and irritation. (Notwithstanding My Weakness, p. 50.)

Veil

Without the veil, we would lose that precious insulation which would constantly interfere with our mortal probation and maturation. Without the veil, our brief mortal
walk in a darkening world would lose its meaning-for one would scarcely carry the flashlight of faith at noonday and in the presence of the Light of the World. Without
the veil, we could not experience the gospel of work and the sweat of our brow. If we had the security of having already entered into God's rest, certain things would
be unneeded; Adam and Eve did not clutch social security cards in the Garden of Eden. ("Patience," p. 219.)

The partition which produces [premortal forgetfulness] is something we call the veil-a partition the presence of which requires our patience. We define the veil as the
border between mortality and eternity; it is also a film of forgetting which covers the memories of earlier experiences. This forgetfulness will be lifted one day, and on
that day we will see forever-rather than "through a glass, darkly" (1 Cor. 13:12). ("Patience," p. 219.)

We are cocooned, as it were, in order that we might truly choose. Once, long ago, we chose to come to this very setting where we could choose. It was an irrevocable
choice. And the veil is the guarantor that our ancient choice will be honored. ("Patience," p. 220.)

Fortunately, the veil keeps the first, second, and third estates separate, hence our sense of separateness. The veil insures the avoidance of having things "compound in
one"-to our everlasting detriment. (2 Ne. 2:11.) (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 11.)

The veil (which is both the film of forgetting and the border between mortality and eternity) will, one day, be shown to have been a succoring screen for us earthlings.
Were it possible to breach it on the wrong terms, we would see and experience, before we are ready, things that would moot much of the value in this mortal
experience. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 11.)

The veil of death stands, not to forever shut us out but as a reminder of God's tutoring and patient love for us. Brushing against it can produce a feeling of "Not Yet,"
but also faint whispers of anticipation. Then there is the still later and glorious moment when, in the words of the hymn, those who have prevailed "by the patience of
hope and the labor of love" will hear in the final judgment these glad words, "Well and faithfully done; enter into my joy and sit down on my throne." (Hymns, no. 217.)

War

The almost unceasingness of wars is but the fulfilling echo of prophecy. Who knows better than the Lord that wars originate in the hearts and minds of man? Can we
presume to lecture the Lord on war? Or dare to use war as an argument against His existence or His Lordship? Do we need to warn Him about how the earth can be
destroyed by fire? (Even As I Am, p. 105.)

Warnings

The Paul Reveres in our lives may have voices too shrill, use bad grammar, ride a poor horse, and may pick the oddest hours to warn us. But the test of warnings is
their accuracy, not their diplomacy. The disciple's commitment to truth must be to truth, without an inordinate concern for the method of delivery. (Wherefore, Ye Must
Press Forward, p. 69.)

If in these times there seem to be more warnings than in other ages, it is because this is not a time when there can be many words. When someone is about to step into
the path of an oncoming truck, the individual giving the warning does not take time to explain the make, model, and color of the truck that is coming or indeed to
mention the velocity. He simply shouts! There is often no time to do more regarding some of the trends in our society. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 113.)

Little wonder that the prophets are so repetitious in their warnings, some almost shrill at times. After all, if one were permitted only a few final lines-words to be
transmitted to family, friends, and posterity-they might very reasonably take the form of headlines or a shouted summation to those not stirred by the still, small voice.
("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 78.)

Voices of warning are meant to be heard, not just raised. (Ensign, November 1994, p. 36.)

Weaknesses

By playing upon the weaknesses of men, the adversary can easily persuade many that these weaknesses are so congenital that they cannot (indeed, need not) be
overcome. (Even As I Am, p. 87.)

Wealth

Large bank accounts [can not] fill the empty vault of the soul. (All These Things Shall Give Thee Experience, p. 61.)

Wickedness

The laughter of the licentious, which was so much a part of Sodom, is not a sign of real joy, for sensuality is sadness. The peculiar hypocrisy of the sinner is that he
pretends he is happy when truly his heart is pierced with deep wounds, for wickedness never was happiness. Oh, how relentlessly the wicked seek company with
others, for in departing from their God, their loneliness is an awful and a solemn loneliness. (Look Back at Sodom, p. 24.)

Truly, not only do seeds and species produce after their own kind, but wickedness begets wickedness. (Look Back at Sodom, p. 6.)

A little mud sliding down a hill can soon become a flood of filth. (Look Back at Sodom, p. 15.)

The deluge in Noah's time was a disaster after which mankind began all over again. In the case of Sodom, there were three survivors, but the destruction of culture and
place was total; there was no Phoenix-like re-emergence; until this day one sees in that place only barrenness and unfertility. Where once the ungodly ate, drank, and
made merry, now there is perpetual silence. But it is a special silence that shouts to those who have ears to hear! (Look Back at Sodom, p. 26.)

Wisdom

A man cannot be truly "learned" if he deliberately seeks to ignore the wisdom not only of the ages, but of the eternities. If during his mortal journey he drinks only
worldly water, he will find that his deepest thirsts are unslaked and inextinguishable. We can obtain "living water" from only one stream. (A Time to Choose, pp. 53-
54.)

The wise learn from their past, but the stubborn, by their lack of understanding, err endlessly. (Look Back at Sodom, p. 4.)

Being "learned" (by simply indiscriminately stockpiling a silo of truths) is not necessarily the same thing as being wise, for wisdom is the useable distillation of data-not
merely its collection and storage. (The Smallest Part, p. 4.)

Women

The daughters of the world may grow more shrill, more hard, more selfish, and less motherly-but the faithful daughters of Zion will be ladies of light; they will be elect
because they have elected to follow in the footsteps of the faithful women of God who have existed in all dispensations of time. That we know less than we would like
of these marvelous women of God should fill us with anticipation for the day when there will be a fulness of their record before us, a part of all that God will yet reveal.
Service less reported is service still. Contributions are never really measured in column inches of coverage in newspapers or even in the scriptures. Indeed, their
deferred recognition only mirrors faintly the quiet queenliness of One we shall meet and greet when we leave "this frail existence." (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward,
pp. 80-81.)

I have never sung Eliza R. Snow's lyrics of 1845 in the anthem of appreciation, "O My Father," without being touched by its reverence for womanhood, which is light
years ahead of some current, cosmetic attempts to dignify womanhood. (Deposition of a Disciple, p. 82.)

We men know the women of God as wives, mothers, sisters, daughters, associates, and friends. You seem to tame us and to gentle us, and, yes, to teach and to inspire
us. For you, we have admiration as well as affection, because righteousness is not a matter of role, nor goodness a matter of gender. In the work of the Kingdom, men
and women are not without each other, but do not envy each other, lest by reversals and renunciations of role we make a wasteland of both womanhood and

(Ensign, May 1978, p. 11.)

Just as certain men were foreordained from before the foundations of the world, so were certain women appointed to certain tasks. Divine design-not chance-brought
Mary forward to be the mother of Jesus. The boy prophet, Joseph Smith, was blessed not only with a great father, but also with a superb mother, Lucy Mack, who
influenced a whole dispensation. A widow with her mite taught us how to tithe. The divine maternal instincts of an Egyptian woman retrieved Moses from the bullrushes,
thereby shaping history. Does it not tell us much about the instrinsic intelligence of women to read of the crucifixion scene at Calvary, "And many women were there
beholding afar off." (Matt. 27:35.) Their presence was a prayer; their lingering was like a litany. And who came first to the empty tomb of the risen Christ? Two
women. Who was the first mortal to see the resurrected Savior? Mary of Magdala. Special spiritual sensitivity keeps the women of God hoping long after many others
have ceased. (Ensign, May 1978, p. 10.)

So often the service of women seems instinctive, while that of men seems more labored. (Ensign, May 1978, p. 10.)

Word of Wisdom

The Word of Wisdom, whose validity has been demonstrated amply by science-at least in some of its specifics-has too often been lauded solely as a health code,
which, while true, often leaves out the relevancy of this doctrine in terms of the awful arithmetic of alcoholism, for instance. If, as many of the young generation maintain,
violence and death are the ultimate obscenity, alcohol isobscene in terms of the death and maiming it causes on the highways, the child beatings, and the terrible
tragedies in the homes where it visits its full afflictions. ("For the Power Is in Them " Mormon Musings, p. 55.)

Work

We ignore the fact that work is a spiritual necessity at the peril of our souls. (A Time to Choose, p. 54.)

The principle of work is also fundamental to spiritual ecology. We shall come to know that work is a spiritual necessity, even if the time comes when it is not an
economic necessity. ("For the Power Is in Them " Mormon Musings, p. 2.)

If we ponder just what it is that will rise with us in the resurrection, it seems clear that our intelligence will rise with us, meaning not simply our IQ, but also our capacity
to receive and apply truth. Our talents, attributes, and skills will rise with us; certainly also our capacity to learn, our degree of self-discipline, and our capacity to work.
Our precise form of work here may have no counterpart there, but the capacity to work will never be obsolete. (We Will Prove Them Herewith, p. 12.)

World

To be too quick to adjust to the ways of this world is to be maladjusted for the next. (Things As They Really Are, p. 3.)

By letting go of the world, we gain the grasp of an outstretched hand that belongs to Him who was once offered the world. Satan now tries to persuade us through his
blandishments that what he offered Jesus (and was turned down) is still a bargain. We, too, must spurn Satan, that loser who knows nothing of real success and who
wants to mutualize his misery. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 2.)

The more quickly we loosen our grip on the things of the world, the more firmly we can take hold of the things of eternity. ("'Build Up My Church,' 'Establish the
[Lord's] Righteousness.'")

My beloved young friends, you are the vanguard of the righteous spirits to be infused into the Church in the last days. Back beyond time, it was so determined, and you
were prepared-before the foundations of the world-to help save others in the latter-day world. You cannot keep that resplendent rendezvous if you become like the
world! Make your righteous marks on the world instead of being spotted by the world. (Ensign, February 1986, p. 20.)

And when we tear ourselves free from the entanglements of the world, are we promised a religion of repose or an Eden of ease? No! We are promised tears and trials
and toil! But we are also promised final triumph, the mere contemplation of which tingles one's soul. (Ensign, November 1974, p. 13.)

Knowing that we live in eternity, how can we conclude that, because of the fleeting pleasures and pressures of the world, we have no time for children? Furthermore,
may not the many wounded strewn along life's way justifiably expect us eternals not to be in too much of a hurry? (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 44.)

Perhaps one of the reasons people try desperately at times to effect a "merger" is that they still want either the praise of the world orthe ways of the world. They think,
somehow, to have them both when, in fact, the essence of the gospel of Jesus Christ is that we must clearly choose some things and reject others. Mortal philosophies
can be mixed and merged with each other almost at will, because they are not totally dissimilar, but we can't weld the Lord's way to the world's ways. (All These
Things Shall Give Thee Experience, pp. 108-9.)

By even appearing to throw in with the world, we throw off those who may just be making their first tentative moves toward faith and spiritual stability. (Deposition of a
Disciple, pp. 24-25.)

The world's way is the equivalent of using Band-Aids for arthritis. (Even As I Am, p. 106.)

Some mean to keep their place in the synagogue, even if it means losing their place in heaven! (Even As I Am, p. 113.)

When we speak of letting go of the world, this does not mean forgoing its sunsets, its beautiful music, nor, best of all, its people. The "world" is a way of life that takes
us away from, not toward, God. Away from, not toward, happiness. Away from sense to nonsense. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 1.)

Worldly emancipation carried to excess is typical of telestial trends that usually lack any inner controls. Only the Lord's way balances our need for liberty and
belonging. If we cling to the world, we will have neither! (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 17.)

Worldliness
Worldly emancipation carried to excess is typical of telestial trends that usually lack any inner controls. Only the Lord's way balances our need for liberty and
belonging. If we cling to the world, we will have neither! (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 17.)

The only way to avoid being overcome by the cares of the world is to stop caring so much for the world. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 20.)

Worldliness

Our hope, unless it is strong, can be at the mercy of our moods and can be badgered and bullied by events and by the contempt of the world, which we will experience
in rather large doses in the irreligious last part of the last dispensation. Part of the contempt of the world comes because the worldly do not understand the things of the
Spirit and regard such as foolishness and stupidity. Therefore, attacks on the Church are not always rebuttable in worldly terms. There are those who are multilingual
but cannot communicate in the mother tongue of faith. Sometimes the best response is a certain silence, such as that of the Master before Pilate. (Notwithstanding My
Weakness, p. 45.)

Not losing behavioral uniqueness or theological thrust is a challenge both for the institution of the Church and for the individuals in it, but never more so than now, when
these restored values are in the path of the killer tides in various cultures. Indeed, the surf has already begun to pound. As wave after worldly wave breaks over the
rising generation in the Church, there will be casualties. Some waves will be huge, one-time waves; others will be repeater waves, striking again and again. Drugs,
pornography, promiscuity, alcoholism, homosexuality, ersatz emancipation movements, divorce, and statism (in which citizens surrender to the state, saying "save us
from ourselves") are among such waves. (Wherefore, Ye Must Press Forward, p. 60.)

Each generation is consumed with building sand castles which the tides of time soon wash away, clearing the beach just in time for the next "tourists" to start the whole
process anew. (Sermons Not Spoken, p. 16.)

Casual members are usually "anxiously engaged" with the cares and the things of the world. Some of these otherwise honorable members mistakenly regard the Church
as an institution, butnot as a kingdom. They know the doctrines of the kingdom, but more as a matter of recitation than of real comprehension. (Ensign, November
1992, p. 66.)

It will take no faith to renounce worldly things when these are among the ashes of a melted planet (3 Ne. 26:3; D&C 43:32; Ether 4:9). ("Not My Will, But Thine", p.
12.)

The Father's plan was set up to bring us all the way "home." Upon entering the third estate, however, we will never know the welcoming embrace of the celestial gate's
keeper if in this second estate we embrace the things of the world (see 2 Ne. 9:41; Morm. 5:11; 6:17). (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 47.)

If settled [see Col. 1:23; 2:7; 2 Pet. 1:12], we will not be "tossed to and fro," whether by rumors, by false doctrines, or by the behavioral and intellectual fashions of the
world. Nor will we get caught up in the "talk show" mentality, spending our time like ancient Athenians "in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new
thing" (Acts 17:21). Why be concerned with the passing preferences of the world anyway? "For the fashion of this world passeth away" (1 Cor. 7:31). (Ensign, May
1987, p. 70.)

Nations continue their costly and obsessive work on the Maginot Line of materialism, looking to it for satisfaction and safety even as they are being outflanked by racing
columns of consequences. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 79.)

If one["mind[s] the things of the flesh" (Rom. 8:5), he cannot "have the mind of Christ" (1 Cor. 2:16), because his thought patterns are "far from" Jesus, as are the
desires or the "intents of his heart" (Mosiah 5:13). (Ensign, November 1995, p. 22.)

Worship

The ultimate adoration is emulation, which helps us to become like those we worship. (A Wonderful Flood of Light, p. 36.)

Verbal veneration by itself is like tipping one's hat and nodding with a smile-instead of falling upon one's knees. (Even As I Am, p. 36.)

The world encourages us to pay attention to secular Caesars. The gospel tells us, however, that these Caesars come and go in an hour of pomp and show. It is God
whom we should worship, and His Son, Jesus Christ. ("Not My Will, But Thine", p. 137.)

Part of worshipping God is to appreciate the blessed and happy things even as we pass through the noxious and obnoxious things. True, life's recesses and reveries do
not last for long, but they are there, as a foretaste. The many blessings to be counted far outnumber the trials which press upon us. (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 119.)

Youth

Our youth are sometimes buffeted daily in Babylon beyond what we who are older know. They need at least a rudimentary understanding of the plan of salvation,
especially in their tender times of growing up. For them, in a moment of needed response, the smile of one friend is like a standing ovation. A compliment can part the
curtain on their unappreciated possibilities. Unfortunately, however, our youth can almost be terrorized by the disapproval of theirpeers. It is as if their group's "thumbs
down" were the equivalent of a Roman emperor dispatching with finality gladiators in the Colosseum. (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p. 36.)

Emancipation from adult control is often replaced by peer-run "prisons." (A Time to Choose, p. 7.)

Can the Fall-with the resultant necessity of work "by the sweat of the brow"-be taught without the youth having validating experiences with work? The latter is hard to
achieve, especially for some advantaged youth in some urban settings. But we ignore the principle of work at our developmental peril. (Lord, Increase Our Faith, p.
117.)

The wave of anti-establishment feelings (or at least of very low confidence in national institutions and our historical ways of doing society's business) among some of the
young in America and the way they act it out (ranging from passivity to hostility) will not wash over the youth of the Church completely; but some will be sprayed by the
surf, and this could dampen their ardor. (A Time to Choose, p. 3.)

Zion

SYMBOLS USED IN

ALAMOTH
VIOL a lyre

Isaiah 5:12; 14:11; Amos 5:23; 6:5

SYMBOLS USED IN

ALAMOTH

(Literally virgins) A musical term which appears in

1 Chronicles 15:20

And in the title of

Psalm 46:1

(It seems to indicate the rendering of the song by female

voices, possibly soprano)

AL-TASCHITH

It appears in the titles of

Psalm 57:1; 58:1; 59:1; 75:1

(it seems to have been used to indicate the kind of ode, or

the kind of melody in which the ode should be sung.)

HIGGAION

Psalm 92:3

(According to Gesenius it signifies the murmuring tone of a harp and hence that
the music should be rendered in a plaintive manner.)

Psalm 9:16

(Combined with "Selah" it may have been intended to indicate a pause in the vocal
music while the instruments rendered an interlude.)

Psalm 19:14

(Mendelssohn translates it "meditation, thought." Hence, the

music was to be rendered in a mode to promote devout

meditation.)

MAKALATH MASCHIL LEANNOTH

These terms are found in the titles of

Psalm 53:1; 88:1

(Authorities grope in darkness as to their signification.

They may indicate the instruments to be played, or the melody

to be sung)

MASCHIL

This musical sign occurs in the titles of

Psalm 32:1; 42:1; 44:1; 45:1; 52:1; 53:1; 54:1; 55:1; 74:1; 78:1; 88:1; 89:1; 142:1

(The meaning is obscure. But its signification where it

occurs elsewhere than in the titles of Psalms is equivalent

to the English word "instruction," or to become wise by

instruction; hence, Psalms 47:7; "Sing ye praises with

understanding.")

MICAHTAM

A musical term in the titles of
instruction; hence, Psalms 47:7; "Sing ye praises with

understanding.")

MICAHTAM

A musical term in the titles of

Psalm 16:1; 56:1; 57:1; 58:1; 59:1; 60:1

(Luther interprets this as "golden," that is, "precious."

Ewald interprets it as signifying a plaintive manner.)

MUTH-LABBEN

In the title of

Psalm 9:1

(Authorities, ancient and modern, differ as to the probable

signification. Gesenius and Deuteronomy Wette interpret it, "with the voice of virgins, by boys." Others derive the word from a

different Hebrew root, and interpret it as indicating that

the Psalm was a funeral ode.)

NEGINAH and NEGINOTH

Appear in the titles of

Psalm 4:1; 54:1; 55:1; 61:1; 67:1; Habakkuk 3:19

(Its use seems to have been to indicate that the song should

be accompanied by stringed instruments.)

NEHILOTH

Appears in the title of

Psalm 5:1

(It seems to indicate, according to Gesenius, that when this

Psalm was sung it was to be accompanied by wind instruments.)

SELAH

(This term appears frequently in the Psalms. Its use is not

known. Possibly it signified a pause in the vocal music

while an instrumental interlude or finale was rendered.)

SHEMINITH

In the titles of

Psalms 6:1; 12:1

(Translated "eighth," probably indicates the measure, movement, or pitch.)

SHIGGAION

In the title of

Psalm 7:1

And its plural SHIGIONOTH in the title of

Habakkuk 3:1

(Supposed to be a musical term to guide in rendering the

song. At the close of the chapter, the author refers the ode

"to the chief musician, on my stringed instruments." The

term may suggest the movement in interpreting the music set
(Supposed to be a musical term to guide in rendering the

song. At the close of the chapter, the author refers the ode

"to the chief musician, on my stringed instruments." The

term may suggest the movement in interpreting the music set

to it.)

SHOSHANNIM and SHUSHAN-EDUTH

In the titles to

Psalm 45:1; 60:1; 69:1; 80:1

(Seems to indicate the manner in which these Psalms were to

be rendered. Kimchi, Tremellius, and Eichhorn render it

"hexachorda," that is, that in singing these Psalms

instruments of six strings were to accompany.)

New Testament in the Light of Modern Research - The Haskell Lectures 1929 (A Deissmann)

PREFACE

Even at the beginning of 1927, by invitation of Oberlin College, I was to deliver the Haskell Lectures. But I fell sick of malaria at the close of November, 1926, after
the conclusion of our first campaign of excavations at Ephesus, and was compelled to abandon my visit to America. Now I was favored, in the spring of 1929, to heed
a renewed gracious invitation and to deliver the Haskell Lectures from April 10th to 17th in the First Church at Oberlin in English as here presented.

It is a pleasant duty for me now to express my grateful thanks to the Graduate School of Theology at Oberlin (Ohio) for their invitation and their kindly reception,
especially to Dean T. W. Graham and President E. H. Wilkins. I consider the two weeks which I was privileged to spend in inspiring exchange with the faculty and
students of the distinguished college an exquisite experience in my academic life.

The main credit for putting the text into English goes to my young friend Mr. Robert Hughes at Bangor (North Wales). To my esteemed fellow worker Professor
Clarence Tucker Craig, Ph.D., D.D., at Oberlin I am greatly obliged for smoothing the English idiom of the manuscript for publication; he was also in other respects,
during my sojourn at Oberlin, a devoted helper.

The lectures are printed in the present volume essentially as they were delivered. A German edition is for the present not planned, which was also the case with my
Selly Oak Lectures.

I
THE ORIGIN OF THE NEW TESTAMENT (A)

The Haskell Lectures, with which we shall be occupied during the next few days, are entitled The New Testament in the Light of Modern Research. Naturally, there
will be an essential connection between all of the lectures.

First, we shall deal with the Origin of the New Testament. We shall seek to answer the questions how and when it happened that the individual parts of the New
Testament were written, and how and when these separate parts, and only these, came to form a whole, a book, precisely the New Testament.

Then, having considered the Origin of the New Testament, we shall have prepared the way for the inquiry into the language of the New Testament. The interest in this
subject is not confined to the specialist who has mastered the Greek language. It seems to me to be of great importance also for the wide circle of educated Christians,
because modern scientific research into the language of the New Testament has produced results which have much more than a formal philological significance. They
enable us to understand the native power and originality of the New Testament and, consequently, of Early Christianity, in quite a different way from that which was
possible in former times. Already they have had considerable influence on the new attempts to translate the New Testament into present-day language. I may mention
the English and American translations by Dr. Moffatt and Dr. Goodspeed. 1

Then we shall speak about the New Testament in World History, reviewing the various fortunes of the New Testament during its uniquely rich history through more
than eighteen centuries down to the present day, a subject which hitherto has not been sufficiently investigated, but which, I believe, is among the most important for
Christian practice.

With this we are brought face to face with a question which can never be raised with sufficient earnestness, a question which has quite a peculiar interest for the critical
realism of the modern man the question of the Value of the New Testament. We shall approach this question in two ways: firstly we shall inquire into the historical value
of the New Testament,
 Copyright            and secondly
            (c) 2005-2009,  Infobaseinto  its religious

The way in which I shall answer these questions is naturally determined by the peculiarity of my personal studies. The expositions are given to you as my own scientific
conclusions and as such you may test and judge them. No one except the speaker is responsible for them, although many of the conclusions which I shall give here are
