KJVThese^G5128 twelve^G1427 Jesus^G2424 sent forth^G649^(G5656), and commanded^G3853^(G5660) them^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Go^G565^(G5632) not^G3361 into^G1519 the way^G3598 of the Gentiles^G1484, and^G2532 into^G1519 any city^G4172 of the Samaritans^G4541 enter ye^G1525^(G5632) not^G3361:

⁶ Rather, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

KJVBut^G1161 go^G4198^(G5737) rather^G3123 to^G4314 the lost^G622^(G5756) sheep^G4263 of the house^G3624 of Israel^G2474.

⁷ As you go, preach, saying, ‘The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!’

¹⁰ Take no bag for your journey, neither two coats, nor sandals, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.

KJVNor^G3361 scrip^G4082 for^G1519 your journey^G3598, neither^G3366 two^G1417 coats^G5509, neither^G3366 shoes^G5266, nor^G3366 yet staves^G4464: for^G1063 the workman^G2040 is^G2076^(G5748) worthy^G514 of his^G846 meat^G5160.

¹¹ Into whatever city or village you enter, find out who in it is worthy, and stay there until you go on.

KJVAnd^G1161 into^G1519 whatsoever^G302^G3739 city^G4172 or^G2228 town^G2968 ye shall enter^G1525^(G5632), enquire^G1833^(G5657) who^G5101 in^G1722 it^G846 is^G2076^(G5748) worthy^G514; and there^G2546 abide^G3306^(G5657) till^G302^G2193 ye go thence^G1831^(G5632).

¹² As you enter into the household, greet it.

KJVAnd^G1161 when ye come^G1525^(G5740) into^G1519 an house^G3614, salute^G782^(G5663) it^G846.

¹³ If the household is worthy, let your peace come on it, but if it isn’t worthy, let your peace return to you.

KJVAnd^G2532 if^G1437^G3303 the house^G3614 be^G5600^(G5753) worthy^G514, let your^G5216 peace^G1515 come^G2064^(G5628) upon^G1909 it^G846: but^G1161 if^G3362 it be^G5600^(G5753) not^G3362 worthy^G514, let your^G5216 peace^G1515 return^G1994^(G5649) to^G4314 you^G5209.

¹⁴ Whoever doesn’t receive you or hear your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet.

KJVAnd^G2532 whosoever^G3739 shall^G1209 not^G3362 receive^G1209^(G5667) you^G5209, nor^G3366 hear^G191^(G5661) your^G5216 words^G3056, when ye depart out^G1831^(G5740) of that^G1565 house^G3614 or^G2228 city^G4172, shake off^G1621^(G5657) the dust^G2868 of your^G5216 feet^G4228.

¹⁵ Most certainly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.

KJVVerily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, It shall be^G2071^(G5704) more tolerable^G414 for the land^G1093 of Sodom^G4670 and^G2532 Gomorrha^G1116 in^G1722 the day^G2250 of judgment^G2920, than^G2228 for that^G1565 city^G4172.

¹⁶ “Behold, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.

KJVBehold^G2400^(G5628), I^G1473 send^G649 you^G5209 forth^G649^(G5719) as^G5613 sheep^G4263 in^G1722 the midst^G3319 of wolves^G3074: be ye^G1096^(G5737) therefore^G3767 wise^G5429 as^G5613 serpents^G3789, and^G2532 harmless^G185 as^G5613 doves^G4058.

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

KJVBut^G1161 beware^G4337^(G5720) of^G575 men^G444: for^G1063 they will deliver^G3860 you^G5209 up^G3860^(G5692) to^G1519 the councils^G4892, and^G2532 they will scourge^G3146^(G5692) you^G5209 in^G1722 their^G846 synagogues^G4864;

¹⁸ Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the nations.

KJVAnd^G2532 ye shall be brought^G71^(G5701) before^G1909 governors^G2232 and^G2532^G1161 kings^G935 for my^G1752 sake^G1700, for^G1519 a testimony^G3142 against them^G846 and^G2532 the Gentiles^G1484.

¹⁹ But when they deliver you up, don’t be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say.

KJVBut^G1161 when^G3752 they deliver^G3860 you^G5209 up^G3860^(G5725), take^G3309 no^G3361 thought^G3309^(G5661) how^G4459 or^G2228 what^G5101 ye shall speak^G2980^(G5661): for^G1063 it shall be given^G1325^(G5701) you^G5213 in^G1722 that same^G1565 hour^G5610 what^G5101 ye shall speak^G2980^(G5692).

²⁰ For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

KJVFor^G1063 it is^G2075^(G5748) not^G3756 ye^G5210 that speak^G2980^(G5723), but^G235 the Spirit^G4151 of your^G5216 Father^G3962 which^G3588 speaketh^G2980^(G5723) in^G1722 you^G5213.

²¹ “Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.

KJVAnd^G1161 the brother^G80 shall deliver up^G3860^(G5692) the brother^G80 to^G1519 death^G2288, and^G2532 the father^G3962 the child^G5043: and^G2532 the children^G5043 shall rise up^G1881^(G5695) against^G1909 their parents^G1118, and^G2532 cause^G2289 them^G846 to be put to death^G2289^(G5692).

²² You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.

KJVAnd^G2532 ye shall^G2071^(G5704) be hated^G3404^(G5746) of^G5259 all^G3956 men for^G1223 my^G3450 name's sake^G3686: but^G1161 he that^G3778 endureth^G5278^(G5660) to^G1519 the end^G5056 shall be saved^G4982^(G5701).

²³ But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next, for most certainly I tell you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man has come.

KJVBut^G1161 when^G3752 they persecute^G1377^(G5725) you^G5209 in^G1722 this^G5026 city^G4172, flee ye^G5343^(G5720) into^G1519 another^G243: for^G1063 verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, Ye shall^G5055 not^G3364 have gone over^G5055^(G5661) the cities^G4172 of Israel^G2474, till^G2193 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 be^G302 come^G2064^(G5632).

²⁴ “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord.

KJVThe disciple^G3101 is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 above^G5228 his master^G1320, nor^G3761 the servant^G1401 above^G5228 his^G846 lord^G2962.

²⁵ It is enough for the disciple that he be like his teacher, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more those of his household!

KJVIt is enough^G713 for the disciple^G3101 that^G2443 he be^G1096^(G5638) as^G5613 his^G846 master^G1320, and^G2532 the servant^G1401 as^G5613 his^G846 lord^G2962. If^G1487 they have called^G2564^(G5656) the master of the house^G3617 Beelzebub^G954, how much^G4214 more^G3123 shall they call them of his^G846 household^G3615?

²⁶ Therefore don’t be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.

KJVFear^G5399^(G5676) them^G846 not^G3361 therefore^G3767: for^G1063 there is^G2076^(G5748) nothing^G3762 covered^G2572^(G5772), that^G3739 shall^G601 not^G3756 be revealed^G601^(G5701); and^G2532 hid^G2927, that^G3739 shall^G1097 not^G3756 be known^G1097^(G5701).

²⁷ What I tell you in the darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear whispered in the ear, proclaim on the housetops.

KJVWhat^G3739 I tell^G3004^(G5719) you^G5213 in^G1722 darkness^G4653, that speak ye^G2036^(G5628) in^G1722 light^G5457: and^G2532 what^G3739 ye hear^G191^(G5719) in^G1519 the ear^G3775, that preach ye^G2784^(G5657) upon^G1909 the housetops^G1430.

²⁸ Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. Rather, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.

KJVAnd^G2532 fear^G5399^(G5676)^G575 not^G3361 them which^G3588 kill^G615^(G5723) the body^G4983, but^G1161 are^G1410 not^G3361 able^G1410^(G5740) to kill^G615^(G5658) the soul^G5590: but^G1161 rather^G3123 fear^G5399^(G5676) him which^G3588 is able^G1410^(G5740) to destroy^G622^(G5658) both^G2532 soul^G5590 and^G2532 body^G4983 in^G1722 hell^G1067.

²⁹ “Aren’t two sparrows sold for an assarion coin? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.

KJVAre^G4453 not^G3780 two^G1417 sparrows^G4765 sold^G4453^(G5743) for a farthing^G787? and^G2532 one^G1520 of^G1537 them^G846 shall^G4098 not^G3756 fall^G4098^(G5695) on^G1909 the ground^G1093 without^G427 your^G5216 Father^G3962.

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

KJVBut^G1161 the very^G2532 hairs^G2359 of your^G5216 head^G2776 are^G1526^(G5748) all^G3956 numbered^G705^(G5772).

³¹ Therefore don’t be afraid. You are of more value than many sparrows.

KJVFear ye^G5399^(G5676) not^G3361 therefore^G3767, ye^G5210 are of more value^G1308^(G5719) than many^G4183 sparrows^G4765.

³² Everyone therefore who confesses me before men, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven.

KJVWhosoever^G3956^G3748 therefore^G3767 shall confess^G3670^(G5692)^G1722 me^G1698 before^G1715 men^G444,^G1722 him^G846 will I confess^G3670^(G5692) also^G2504 before^G1715 my^G3450 Father^G3962 which^G3588 is in^G1722 heaven^G3772.

³³ But whoever denies me before men, I will also deny him before my Father who is in heaven.

KJVBut^G1161 whosoever^G3748 shall^G302 deny^G720^(G5667) me^G3165 before^G1715 men^G444, him^G846 will I also^G2504 deny^G720^(G5695) before^G1715 my^G3450 Father^G3962 which^G3588 is in^G1722 heaven^G3772.

³⁴ “Don’t think that I came to send peace on the earth. I didn’t come to send peace, but a sword.

KJVThink^G3543^(G5661) not^G3361 that^G3754 I am come^G2064^(G5627) to send^G906^(G5629) peace^G1515 on^G1909 earth^G1093: I came^G2064^(G5627) not^G3756 to send^G906^(G5629) peace^G1515, but^G235 a sword^G3162.

³⁵ For I came to set a man at odds against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

KJVFor^G1063 I am come^G2064^(G5627) to set^G1369 a man^G444 at variance^G1369^(G5658) against^G2596 his^G846 father^G3962, and^G2532 the daughter^G2364 against^G2596 her^G846 mother^G3384, and^G2532 the daughter in law^G3565 against^G2596 her^G846 mother in law^G3994.

³⁶ A man’s foes will be those of his own household.

KJVAnd^G2532 a man's^G444 foes^G2190 shall be they of his own^G846 household^G3615.

³⁷ He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me isn’t worthy of me.

KJVHe that loveth^G5368^(G5723) father^G3962 or^G2228 mother^G3384 more than^G5228 me^G1691 is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 worthy^G514 of me^G3450: and^G2532 he that loveth^G5368^(G5723) son^G5207 or^G2228 daughter^G2364 more than^G5228 me^G1691 is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 worthy^G514 of me^G3450.

³⁸ He who doesn’t take his cross and follow after me isn’t worthy of me.

KJVAnd^G2532 he^G3739 that taketh^G2983^(G5719) not^G3756 his^G846 cross^G4716, and^G2532 followeth^G190^(G5719) after^G3694 me^G3450, is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 worthy^G514 of me^G3450.

³⁹ He who seeks his life will lose it; and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.

KJVHe that findeth^G2147^(G5631) his^G846 life^G5590 shall lose^G622^(G5692) it^G846: and^G2532 he that loseth^G622^(G5660) his^G846 life^G5590 for my^G1700 sake^G1752 shall find^G2147^(G5692) it^G846.

⁴⁰ “He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.

KJVHe that receiveth^G1209^(G5740) you^G5209 receiveth^G1209^(G5736) me^G1691, and^G2532 he that receiveth^G1209^(G5740) me^G1691 receiveth^G1209^(G5736) him that sent^G649^(G5660) me^G3165.

⁴¹ He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. He who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.

KJVHe that receiveth^G1209^(G5740) a prophet^G4396 in^G1519 the name^G3686 of a prophet^G4396 shall receive^G2983^(G5695) a prophet's^G4396 reward^G3408; and^G2532 he that receiveth^G2983^(G5695) a righteous man^G1342 in^G1519 the name^G3686 of a righteous man^G1342 shall receive^G1209^(G5740) a righteous man's^G1342 reward^G3408.

⁴² Whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, most certainly I tell you, he will in no way lose his reward.”

KJVAnd^G2532 whosoever^G3739^G1437 shall give to drink^G4222^(G5661) unto one^G1520 of these^G5130 little ones^G3398 a cup^G4221 of cold^G5593 water only^G3440 in^G1519 the name^G3686 of a disciple^G3101, verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, he shall in no wise^G3364 lose^G622^(G5661) his^G846 reward^G3408.

WEB·Matthew 9

¹He entered into a boat and crossed over, and came into his own city.

KJVAnd^G2532 he entered^G1684^(G5631) into^G1519 a ship^G4143, and passed over^G1276^(G5656), and^G2532 came^G2064^(G5627) into^G1519 his own^G2398 city^G4172.

² Behold, they brought to him a man who was paralyzed, lying on a bed. Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, “Son, cheer up! Your sins are forgiven you.”

KJVAnd^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), they brought^G4374^(G5707) to him^G846 a man sick of the palsy^G3885, lying^G906^(G5772) on^G1909 a bed^G2825: and^G2532 Jesus^G2424 seeing^G1492^(G5631) their^G846 faith^G4102 said^G2036^(G5627) unto the sick of the palsy^G3885; Son^G5043, be of good cheer^G2293^(G5720); thy^G4675 sins^G266 be forgiven^G863^(G5769) thee^G4671.

³ Behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man blasphemes.”

KJVAnd^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), certain^G5100 of the scribes^G1122 said^G2036^(G5627) within^G1722 themselves^G1438, This^G3778 man blasphemeth^G987^(G5719).

⁴ Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts?

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’?

KJVFor^G1063 whether^G5101 is^G2076^(G5748) easier^G2123, to say^G2036^(G5629), Thy sins^G266 be forgiven^G863^(G5769) thee^G4671; or^G2228 to say^G2036^(G5629), Arise^G1453^(G5669), and^G2532 walk^G4043^(G5720)?

⁶ But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins—” (then he said to the paralytic), “Get up, and take up your mat, and go to your house.”

KJVBut^G1161 that^G2443 ye may know^G1492^(G5762) that^G3754 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 hath^G2192^(G5719) power^G1849 on^G1909 earth^G1093 to forgive^G863^(G5721) sins^G266,(then^G5119 saith he^G3004^(G5719) to the sick of the palsy^G3885,) Arise^G1453^(G5685), take up^G142^(G5657) thy^G4675 bed^G2825, and^G2532 go^G5217^(G5720) unto^G1519 thine^G4675 house^G3624.

⁷ He arose and departed to his house.

KJVAnd^G2532 he arose^G1453^(G5685), and departed^G565^(G5627) to^G1519 his^G846 house^G3624.

⁸ But when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.

KJVBut^G1161 when the multitudes^G3793 saw^G1492^(G5631) it, they marvelled^G2296^(G5656), and^G2532 glorified^G1392^(G5656) God^G2316, which^G3588 had given^G1325^(G5631) such^G5108 power^G1849 unto men^G444.

⁹ As Jesus passed by from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax collection office. He said to him, “Follow me.” He got up and followed him.

KJVAnd as^G2532 Jesus^G2424 passed forth^G3855^(G5723) from thence^G1564, he saw^G1492^(G5627) a man^G444, named^G3004^(G5746) Matthew^G3156, sitting^G2521^(G5740) at^G1909 the receipt of custom^G5058: and^G2532 he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Follow^G190^(G5720) me^G3427. And^G2532 he arose^G450^(G5631), and followed^G190^(G5656) him^G846.

¹⁰ As he sat in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.

KJVAnd^G2532 it came to pass^G1096^(G5633), as Jesus^G2424 sat at meat^G345^(G5740) in^G1722 the house^G3614,^G2532 behold^G2400^(G5628), many^G4183 publicans^G5057 and^G2532 sinners^G268 came^G2064^(G5631) and sat down^G4873^(G5711) with him^G846 and^G2532 his^G846 disciples^G3101.

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.

¹³ But you go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ for I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”

KJVBut^G1161 go ye^G4198^(G5679) and learn^G3129^(G5628) what^G5101 that meaneth^G2076^(G5748), I will^G2309^(G5719) have mercy^G1656, and^G2532 not^G3756 sacrifice^G2378: for^G1063 I am^G2064 not^G3756 come^G2064^(G5627) to call^G2564^(G5658) the righteous^G1342, but^G235 sinners^G268 to^G1519 repentance^G3341.

¹⁴ Then John’s disciples came to him, saying, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples don’t fast?”

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.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Can^G3361^G1410^(G5736) the children^G5207 of the bridechamber^G3567 mourn^G3996^(G5721), as long as^G1909^G3745 the bridegroom^G3566 is^G2076^(G5748) with^G3326 them^G846? but^G1161 the days^G2250 will come^G2064^(G5695), when^G3752 the bridegroom^G3566 shall be taken^G522^(G5686) from^G575 them^G846, and^G2532 then^G5119 shall they fast^G3522^(G5692).

¹⁶ No one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch would tear away from the garment, and a worse hole is made.

KJV^G1161 No man^G3762 putteth^G1911^(G5719) a piece^G1915 of new^G46 cloth^G4470 unto^G1909 an old^G3820 garment^G2440, for^G1063 that which is put in to fill it up^G4138 taketh^G142^(G5719)^G846 from^G575 the garment^G2440, and^G2532 the rent^G4978 is made^G1096^(G5736) worse^G5501.

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).

¹⁸ While he told these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshiped him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live.”

KJVWhile he^G846 spake^G2980^(G5723) these things^G5023 unto them^G846, behold^G2400^(G5628), there came^G2064^(G5631) a certain^G1520 ruler^G758, and worshipped^G4352^(G5707) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723),^G3754 My^G3450 daughter^G2364 is even now^G737 dead^G5053^(G5656): but^G235 come^G2064^(G5631) and lay^G2007^(G5628) thy^G4675 hand^G5495 upon^G1909 her^G846, and^G2532 she shall live^G2198^(G5695).

¹⁹ Jesus got up and followed him, as did his disciples.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 arose^G1453^(G5685), and followed^G190^(G5656) him^G846, and^G2532 so did his^G846 disciples^G3101.

²⁰ Behold, a woman who had a discharge of blood for twelve years came behind him, and touched the fringe of his garment;

KJVAnd^G2532, behold^G2400^(G5628), a woman^G1135, which was diseased with an issue of blood^G131^(G5723) twelve^G1427 years^G2094, came^G4334^(G5631) behind^G3693 him, and touched^G680^(G5662) the hem^G2899 of his^G846 garment^G2440:

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.

²³ When Jesus came into the ruler’s house and saw the flute players and the crowd in noisy disorder,

KJVAnd^G2532 when Jesus^G2424 came^G2064^(G5631) into^G1519 the ruler's^G758 house^G3614, and^G2532 saw^G1492^(G5631) the minstrels^G834 and^G2532 the people^G3793 making a noise^G2350^(G5746),

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).

²⁶ The report of this went out into all that land.

KJVAnd^G2532 the fame^G5345 hereof^G3778 went abroad^G1831^(G5627) into^G1519 all^G3650 that^G1565 land^G1093.

²⁷ As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him, calling out and saying, “Have mercy on us, son of David!”

KJVAnd^G2532 when Jesus^G2424 departed^G3855^(G5723) thence^G1564, two^G1417 blind men^G5185 followed^G190^(G5656) him^G846, crying^G2896^(G5723), and^G2532 saying^G3004^(G5723), Thou Son^G5207 of David^G1138, have mercy^G1653^(G5657) on us^G2248.

²⁸ When he had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They told him, “Yes, Lord.”

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.

³² As they went out, behold, a mute man who was demon possessed was brought to him.

KJVAs^G1161 they^G846 went out^G1831^(G5740), behold^G2400^(G5628), they brought^G4374^(G5656) to him^G846 a dumb^G2974 man^G444 possessed with a devil^G1139^(G5740).

³³ When the demon was cast out, the mute man spoke. The multitudes marveled, saying, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel!”

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.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 went about^G4013^(G5707) all^G3956 the cities^G4172 and^G2532 villages^G2968, teaching^G1321^(G5723) in^G1722 their^G846 synagogues^G4864, and^G2532 preaching^G2784^(G5723) the gospel^G2098 of the kingdom^G932, and^G2532 healing^G2323^(G5723) every^G3956 sickness^G3554 and^G2532 every^G3956 disease^G3119 among^G1722 the people^G2992.

³⁶ But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them because they were harassed and scattered, like sheep without a shepherd.

KJVBut^G1161 when he saw^G1492^(G5631) the multitudes^G3793, he was moved with compassion^G4697^(G5675) on^G4012 them^G846, because^G3754 they fainted^G2258^(G5713)^G1590^(G5772), and^G2532 were scattered abroad^G4496^(G5772), as^G5616 sheep^G4263 having^G2192^(G5723) no^G3361 shepherd^G4166.

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.”

KJVPray ye^G1189^(G5676) therefore^G3767 the Lord^G2962 of the harvest^G2326, that^G3704 he will send forth^G1544^(G5632) labourers^G2040 into^G1519 his^G846 harvest^G2326.
