KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 knowing^G1492^(G5631) their^G846 thoughts^G1761 said^G2036^(G5627), Wherefore^G2444 think^G1760^(G5736) ye^G5210 evil^G4190 in^G1722 your^G5216 hearts^G2588?

⁵ For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven;’ or to say, ‘Get up, and walk’?

¹¹ When the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

KJVAnd^G2532 when the Pharisees^G5330 saw^G1492^(G5631) it, they said^G2036^(G5627) unto his^G846 disciples^G3101, Why^G1302 eateth^G2068^(G5719) your^G5216 Master^G1320 with^G3326 publicans^G5057 and^G2532 sinners^G268?

¹² When Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick do.

KJVBut^G1161 when Jesus^G2424 heard^G191^(G5660) that, he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, They that be^G2192^(G5719) whole^G2480^(G5723) need^G5532 not^G3756 a physician^G2395, but^G235 they that are^G2192^(G5723) sick^G2560.

KJVThen^G5119 came^G4334^(G5736) to him^G846 the disciples^G3101 of John^G2491, saying^G3004^(G5723), Why^G1302 do we^G2249 and^G2532 the Pharisees^G5330 fast^G3522^(G5719) oft^G4183, but^G1161 thy^G4675 disciples^G3101 fast^G3522^(G5719) not^G3756?

¹⁵ Jesus said to them, “Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast.

¹⁷ Neither do people put new wine into old wineskins, or else the skins would burst, and the wine be spilled, and the skins ruined. No, they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved.”

KJVNeither^G3761 do men put^G906^(G5719) new^G3501 wine^G3631 into^G1519 old^G3820 bottles^G779: else^G1490 the bottles^G779 break^G4486^(G5743), and^G2532 the wine^G3631 runneth out^G1632^(G5743), and^G2532 the bottles^G779 perish^G622^(G5698): but^G235 they put^G906^(G5719) new^G3501 wine^G3631 into^G1519 new^G2537 bottles^G779, and^G2532 both^G297 are preserved^G4933^(G5743).

²¹ for she said within herself, “If I just touch his garment, I will be made well.”

KJVFor^G1063 she said^G3004^(G5707) within^G1722 herself^G1438, If^G1437 I may^G680 but^G3440 touch^G680^(G5672) his^G846 garment^G2440, I shall be whole^G4982^(G5701).

²² But Jesus, turning around and seeing her, said, “Daughter, cheer up! Your faith has made you well.” And the woman was made well from that hour.

KJVBut^G1161 Jesus^G2424 turned him about^G1994^(G5651), and^G2532 when he saw^G1492^(G5631) her^G846, he said^G2036^(G5627), Daughter^G2364, be of good comfort^G2293^(G5720); thy^G4675 faith^G4102 hath made^G4982 thee^G4571 whole^G4982^(G5758). And^G2532 the woman^G1135 was made whole^G4982^(G5681) from^G575 that^G1565 hour^G5610.

²⁴ he said to them, “Make room, because the girl isn’t dead, but sleeping.” They were ridiculing him.

KJVHe said^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Give place^G402^(G5720): for^G1063 the maid^G2877 is^G599 not^G3756 dead^G599^(G5627), but^G235 sleepeth^G2518^(G5719). And^G2532 they laughed^G2606 him^G846 to scorn^G2606^(G5707).

²⁵ But when the crowd was sent out, he entered in, took her by the hand, and the girl arose.

KJVBut^G1161 when^G3753 the people^G3793 were put forth^G1544^(G5681), he went in^G1525^(G5631), and took^G2902^(G5656) her^G846 by the hand^G5495, and^G2532 the maid^G2877 arose^G1453^(G5681).

KJVAnd^G1161 when he was come^G2064^(G5631) into^G1519 the house^G3614, the blind men^G5185 came^G4334^(G5656) to him^G846: and^G2532 Jesus^G2424 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Believe ye^G4100^(G5720) that^G3754 I am able^G1410^(G5736) to do^G4160^(G5658) this^G5124? They said^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Yea^G3483, Lord^G2962.

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

KJVThen^G5119 touched he^G680^(G5662) their^G846 eyes^G3788, saying^G3004^(G5723), According^G2596 to your^G5216 faith^G4102 be it^G1096^(G5676) unto you^G5213.

³⁰ Then their eyes were opened. Jesus strictly commanded them, saying, “See that no one knows about this.”

KJVAnd^G2532 their^G846 eyes^G3788 were opened^G455^(G5681); and^G2532 Jesus^G2424 straitly charged^G1690^(G5662) them^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), See^G3708^(G5720) that no man^G3367 know^G1097^(G5720) it.

³¹ But they went out and spread abroad his fame in all that land.

KJVBut^G1161 they, when they were departed^G1831^(G5631), spread abroad^G1310 his^G846 fame^G1310^(G5656) in^G1722 all^G3650 that^G1565 country^G1093.

KJVAnd^G2532 when the devil^G1140 was cast out^G1544^(G5685), the dumb^G2974 spake^G2980^(G5656): and^G2532 the multitudes^G3793 marvelled^G2296^(G5656), saying^G3004^(G5723),^G3754 It was never^G3763 so^G3779 seen^G5316^(G5648) in^G1722 Israel^G2474.

³⁴ But the Pharisees said, “By the prince of the demons, he casts out demons.”

KJVBut^G1161 the Pharisees^G5330 said^G3004^(G5707), He casteth out^G1544^(G5719) devils^G1140 through^G1722 the prince^G758 of the devils^G1140.

³⁵ Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.

³⁷ Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest indeed is plentiful, but the laborers are few.

KJVThen^G5119 saith^G3004^(G5719) he unto his^G846 disciples^G3101, The harvest^G2326 truly^G3303 is plenteous^G4183, but^G1161 the labourers^G2040 are few^G3641;

³⁸ Pray therefore that the Lord of the harvest will send out laborers into his harvest.”

KJVFor^G1063^G2532 I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) a man^G444 under^G5259 authority^G1849, having^G2192^(G5723) soldiers^G4757 under^G5259 me^G1683: and^G2532 I say^G3004^(G5719) to this^G5129 man, Go^G4198^(G5676), and^G2532 he goeth^G4198^(G5736); and^G2532 to another^G243, Come^G2064^(G5736), and^G2532 he cometh^G2064^(G5736); and^G2532 to my^G3450 servant^G1401, Do^G4160^(G5657) this^G5124, and^G2532 he doeth^G4160^(G5719) it.

¹⁰ When Jesus heard it, he marveled and said to those who followed, “Most certainly I tell you, I haven’t found so great a faith, not even in Israel.

KJVWhen^G1161 Jesus^G2424 heard^G191^(G5660) it, he marvelled^G2296^(G5656), and^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) to them that followed^G190^(G5723), Verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, I have^G2147 not^G3761 found^G2147^(G5627) so great^G5118 faith^G4102, no, not^G3761 in^G1722 Israel^G2474.

¹¹ I tell you that many will come from the east and the west, and will sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the Kingdom of Heaven,

KJVAnd^G1161 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, That^G3754 many^G4183 shall come^G2240^(G5692) from^G575 the east^G395 and^G2532 west^G1424, and^G2532 shall sit down^G347^(G5701) with^G3326 Abraham^G11, and^G2532 Isaac^G2464, and^G2532 Jacob^G2384, in^G1722 the kingdom^G932 of heaven^G3772.

¹² but the children of the Kingdom will be thrown out into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

KJVBut^G1161 the children^G5207 of the kingdom^G932 shall be cast out^G1544^(G5701) into^G1519 outer^G1857 darkness^G4655: there^G1563 shall be^G2071^(G5704) weeping^G2805 and^G2532 gnashing^G1030 of teeth^G3599.

¹³ Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way. Let it be done for you as you have believed.” His servant was healed in that hour.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto the centurion^G1543, Go thy way^G5217^(G5720); and^G2532 as^G5613 thou hast believed^G4100^(G5656), so be it done^G1096^(G5676) unto thee^G4671. And^G2532 his^G846 servant^G3816 was healed^G2390^(G5681) in^G1722 the selfsame^G1565 hour^G5610.

¹⁵ He touched her hand, and the fever left her. So she got up and served him.

KJVAnd^G2532 he touched^G680^(G5662) her^G846 hand^G5495, and^G2532 the fever^G4446 left^G863^(G5656) her^G846: and^G2532 she arose^G1453^(G5681), and^G2532 ministered^G1247^(G5707) unto them^G846.

¹⁷ that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, “He took our infirmities and bore our diseases.”

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, The foxes^G258 have^G2192^(G5719) holes^G5454, and^G2532 the birds^G4071 of the air^G3772 have nests^G2682; but^G1161 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 hath^G2192^(G5719) not^G3756 where^G4226 to lay^G2827^(G5725) his head^G2776.

²¹ Another of his disciples said to him, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.”

KJVAnd^G1161 another^G2087 of his^G846 disciples^G3101 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Lord^G2962, suffer^G2010^(G5657) me^G3427 first^G4412 to go^G565^(G5629) and^G2532 bury^G2290^(G5658) my^G3450 father^G3962.

²² But Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.”

KJVBut^G1161 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Follow^G190^(G5720) me^G3427; and^G2532 let^G863^(G5628) the dead^G3498 bury^G2290^(G5658) their^G1438 dead^G3498.

²⁵ The disciples came to him and woke him up, saying, “Save us, Lord! We are dying!”

KJVAnd^G2532 his^G846 disciples^G3101 came^G4334^(G5631) to him, and awoke^G1453^(G5656) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Lord^G2962, save^G4982^(G5657) us^G2248: we perish^G622^(G5731).

²⁶ He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then he got up, rebuked the wind and the sea, and there was a great calm.

KJVAnd^G2532 he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Why^G5101 are ye^G2075^(G5748) fearful^G1169, O ye of little faith^G3640? Then^G5119 he arose^G1453^(G5685), and rebuked^G2008^(G5656) the winds^G417 and^G2532 the sea^G2281; and^G2532 there was^G1096^(G5633) a great^G3173 calm^G1055.

²⁷ The men marveled, saying, “What kind of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”

KJVBut^G1161 the men^G444 marvelled^G2296^(G5656), saying^G3004^(G5723), What manner of man^G4217 is^G2076^(G5748) this^G3778, that^G3754 even^G2532 the winds^G417 and^G2532 the sea^G2281 obey^G5219^(G5719) him^G846!

²⁹ Behold, they cried out, saying, “What do we have to do with you, Jesus, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?”

KJVAnd^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), they cried out^G2896^(G5656), saying^G3004^(G5723), What^G5101 have we^G2254 to do with^G2532 thee^G4671, Jesus^G2424, thou Son^G5207 of God^G2316? art thou come^G2064^(G5627) hither^G5602 to torment^G928^(G5658) us^G2248 before^G4253 the time^G2540?

³¹ The demons begged him, saying, “If you cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of pigs.”

KJVSo^G1161 the devils^G1142 besought^G3870^(G5707) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), If^G1487 thou cast^G1544 us^G2248 out^G1544^(G5719), suffer^G2010^(G5657) us^G2254 to go away^G565^(G5629) into^G1519 the herd^G34 of swine^G5519.

³² He said to them, “Go!” They came out and went into the herd of pigs; and behold, the whole herd of pigs rushed down the cliff into the sea and died in the water.

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Go^G5217^(G5720). And^G1161 when they were come out^G1831^(G5631), they went^G565^(G5627) into^G1519 the herd^G34 of swine^G5519: and^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), the whole^G3956 herd^G34 of swine^G5519 ran violently^G3729^(G5656) down^G2596 a steep place^G2911 into^G1519 the sea^G2281, and^G2532 perished^G599^(G5627) in^G1722 the waters^G5204.

³³ Those who fed them fled and went away into the city and told everything, including what happened to those who were possessed with demons.

KJVAnd^G1161 they that kept^G1006^(G5723) them fled^G5343^(G5627), and^G2532 went their ways^G565^(G5631) into^G1519 the city^G4172, and told^G518^(G5656) every thing^G3956, and^G2532 what was befallen to the possessed of the devils^G1139^(G5740).

³⁴ Behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged that he would depart from their borders.

KJVAnd^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), the whole^G3956 city^G4172 came out^G1831^(G5627) to^G1519 meet^G4877 Jesus^G2424: and^G2532 when they saw^G1492^(G5631) him^G846, they besought^G3870^(G5656) him that^G3704 he would depart^G3327^(G5632) out of^G575 their^G846 coasts^G3725.
