WEB·Mark 12

¹He began to speak to them in parables. “A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a pit for the wine press, built a tower, rented it out to a farmer, and went into another country.

KJVAnd^G2532 he began^G756^(G5662) to speak^G3004^(G5721) unto them^G846 by^G1722 parables^G3850. A certain man^G444 planted^G5452^(G5656) a vineyard^G290, and^G2532 set^G4060^(G5656) an hedge about^G5418 it, and^G2532 digged^G3736^(G5656) a place for the winefat^G5276, and^G2532 built^G3618^(G5656) a tower^G4444, and^G2532 let^G1554 it^G846 out^G1554^(G5639) to husbandmen^G1092, and^G2532 went into a far country^G589^(G5656).

² When it was time, he sent a servant to the farmer to get from the farmer his share of the fruit of the vineyard.

KJVAnd^G2532 at the season^G2540 he sent^G649^(G5656) to^G4314 the husbandmen^G1092 a servant^G1401, that^G2443 he might receive^G2983^(G5632) from^G3844 the husbandmen^G1092 of^G575 the fruit^G2590 of the vineyard^G290.

³ They took him, beat him, and sent him away empty.

KJVAnd^G1161 they caught^G2983^(G5631) him, and beat^G1194^(G5656) him^G846, and^G2532 sent him away^G649^(G5656) empty^G2756.

⁴ Again, he sent another servant to them; and they threw stones at him, wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated.

KJVAnd^G2532 again^G3825 he sent^G649^(G5656) unto^G4314 them^G846 another^G243 servant^G1401; and at him^G2548 they cast stones^G3036^(G5660), and wounded him in the head^G2775^(G5656), and^G2532 sent him away^G649^(G5656) shamefully handled^G821^(G5772).

⁵ Again he sent another, and they killed him, and many others, beating some, and killing some.

KJVAnd^G2532 again^G3825 he sent^G649^(G5656) another^G243; and him^G2548 they killed^G615^(G5656), and^G2532 many^G4183 others^G243;^G3303 beating some^G1194^(G5723), and^G1161 killing some^G615^(G5723).

⁶ Therefore still having one, his beloved son, he sent him last to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’

KJVHaving^G2192^(G5723) yet^G2089 therefore^G3767 one^G1520 son^G5207, his^G846 wellbeloved^G27, he sent^G649^(G5656) him^G846 also^G2532 last^G2078 unto^G4314 them^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723),^G3754 They will reverence^G1788^(G5691) my^G3450 son^G5207.

⁷ But those farmers said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’

KJVBut^G1161 those^G1565 husbandmen^G1092 said^G2036^(G5627) among^G4314 themselves^G1438, This^G3754^G3778 is^G2076^(G5748) the heir^G2818; come^G1205^(G5773), let us kill^G615^(G5725) him^G846, and^G2532 the inheritance^G2817 shall be^G2071^(G5704) ours^G2257.

⁸ They took him, killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.

KJVAnd^G2532 they took^G2983^(G5631) him^G846, and killed^G615^(G5656) him, and^G2532 cast^G1544^(G5627) him out of^G1854 the vineyard^G290.

⁹ What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.

KJVWhat^G5101 shall^G4160 therefore^G3767 the lord^G2962 of the vineyard^G290 do^G4160^(G5692)? he will come^G2064^(G5695) and^G2532 destroy^G622^(G5692) the husbandmen^G1092, and^G2532 will give^G1325^(G5692) the vineyard^G290 unto others^G243.

¹⁰ Haven’t you even read this Scripture: ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the head of the corner.

KJVAnd have ye^G314 not^G3761 read^G314^(G5627) this^G5026 scripture^G1124; The stone^G3037 which^G3739 the builders^G3618^(G5723) rejected^G593^(G5656) is^G3778^G1096^(G5675) become^G1519 the head^G2776 of the corner^G1137:

¹¹ This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes’?”

KJVThis^G3778 was^G1096 the Lord's^G2962 doing^G1096^(G5633)^G3844, and^G2532 it is^G2076^(G5748) marvellous^G2298 in^G1722 our^G2257 eyes^G3788?

¹² They tried to seize him, but they feared the multitude; for they perceived that he spoke the parable against them. They left him and went away.

KJVAnd^G2532 they sought^G2212^(G5707) to lay hold^G2902^(G5658) on him^G846, but^G2532 feared^G5399^(G5675) the people^G3793: for^G1063 they knew^G1097^(G5627) that^G3754 he had spoken^G2036^(G5627) the parable^G3850 against^G4314 them^G846: and^G2532 they left^G863^(G5631) him^G846, and went their way^G565^(G5627).

¹³ They sent some of the Pharisees and the Herodians to him, that they might trap him with words.

KJVAnd^G2532 they send^G649^(G5719) unto^G4314 him^G846 certain^G5100 of the Pharisees^G5330 and^G2532 of the Herodians^G2265, to^G2443 catch^G64^(G5661) him^G846 in his words^G3056.

¹⁴ When they had come, they asked him, “Teacher, we know that you are honest, and don’t defer to anyone; for you aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?

KJVAnd^G1161 when they were come^G2064^(G5631), they say^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Master^G1320, we know^G1492^(G5758) that^G3754 thou art^G1488^(G5748) true^G227, and^G2532^G4671 carest^G3756^G3199^(G5719) for^G4012 no man^G3762: for^G1063 thou regardest^G991^(G5719) not^G3756 the person^G1519^G4383 of men^G444, but^G235 teachest^G1321^(G5719) the way^G3598 of God^G2316 in^G1909 truth^G225: Is it lawful^G1832^(G5748) to give^G1325^(G5629) tribute^G2778 to Caesar^G2541, or^G2228 not^G3756?

¹⁵ Shall we give, or shall we not give?” But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you test me? Bring me a denarius, that I may see it.”

KJVShall we give^G1325^(G5632), or^G2228 shall we not^G3361 give^G1325^(G5632)? But^G1161 he, knowing^G1492^(G5761) their^G846 hypocrisy^G5272, said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Why^G5101 tempt ye^G3985^(G5719) me^G3165? bring^G5342^(G5720) me^G3427 a penny^G1220, that^G2443 I may see^G1492^(G5632) it.

¹⁶ They brought it. He said to them, “Whose is this image and inscription?” They said to him, “Caesar’s.”

KJVAnd^G1161 they brought^G5342^(G5656) it. And^G2532 he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Whose^G5101 is this^G3778 image^G1504 and^G2532 superscription^G1923? And^G1161 they said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Caesar's^G2541.

¹⁷ Jesus answered them, “Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” They marveled greatly at him.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 answering^G611^(G5679) said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Render^G591^(G5628) to Caesar^G2541 the things that are^G3588 Caesar's^G2541, and^G2532 to God^G2316 the things that are^G3588 God's^G2316. And^G2532 they marvelled^G2296^(G5656) at^G1909 him^G846.

¹⁸ Some Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection, came to him. They asked him, saying,

KJVThen^G2532 come^G2064^(G5736) unto^G4314 him^G846 the Sadducees^G4523, which^G3748 say^G3004^(G5719) there is^G1511^(G5750) no^G3361 resurrection^G386; and^G2532 they asked^G1905^(G5656) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723),

¹⁹ “Teacher, Moses wrote to us, ‘If a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife behind him, and leaves no children, that his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.’

KJVMaster^G1320, Moses^G3475 wrote^G1125^(G5656) unto us^G2254, If^G3754^G1437 a man's^G5100 brother^G80 die^G599^(G5632), and^G2532 leave^G2641^(G5632) his wife^G1135 behind him, and^G2532 leave^G863^(G5632) no^G3361 children^G5043, that^G2443 his^G846 brother^G80 should take^G2983^(G5632) his^G846 wife^G1135, and^G2532 raise up^G1817^(G5661) seed^G4690 unto his^G846 brother^G80.

²⁰ There were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and dying left no offspring.

KJVNow there were^G2258^(G5713) seven^G2033 brethren^G80: and^G2532 the first^G4413 took^G2983^(G5627) a wife^G1135, and^G2532 dying^G599^(G5723) left^G863^(G5656) no^G3756 seed^G4690.

²¹ The second took her, and died, leaving no children behind him. The third likewise;

KJVAnd^G2532 the second^G1208 took^G2983^(G5627) her^G846, and^G2532 died^G599^(G5627),^G2532 neither^G3761 left^G863^(G5656) he^G846 any seed^G4690: and^G2532 the third^G5154 likewise^G5615.

²² and the seven took her and left no children. Last of all the woman also died.

KJVAnd^G2532 the seven^G2033 had^G2983^(G5627) her^G846, and^G2532 left^G863^(G5656) no^G3756 seed^G4690: last^G2078 of all^G3956 the woman^G1135 died^G599^(G5627) also^G2532.

²³ In the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be of them? For the seven had her as a wife.”

KJVIn^G1722 the resurrection^G386 therefore^G3767, when^G3752 they shall rise^G450^(G5632), whose^G5101 wife^G1135 shall she be^G2071^(G5704) of them^G846? for^G1063 the seven^G2033 had^G2192^(G5627) her^G846 to wife^G1135.

²⁴ Jesus answered them, “Isn’t this because you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God?

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 answering^G611^(G5679) said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Do ye^G4105 not^G3756 therefore^G1223^G5124 err^G4105^(G5743), because ye know^G1492^(G5761) not^G3361 the scriptures^G1124, neither^G3366 the power^G1411 of God^G2316?

²⁵ For when they will rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.

KJVFor^G1063 when^G3752 they shall rise^G450^(G5632) from^G1537 the dead^G3498, they neither^G3777 marry^G1060^(G5719), nor^G3777 are given in marriage^G1061^(G5743); but^G235 are^G1526^(G5748) as^G5613 the angels^G32 which^G3588 are in^G1722 heaven^G3772.

²⁶ But about the dead, that they are raised, haven’t you read in the book of Moses about the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?

KJVAnd^G1161 as touching^G4012 the dead^G3498, that^G3754 they rise^G1453^(G5743): have ye^G314 not^G3756 read^G314^(G5627) in^G1722 the book^G976 of Moses^G3475, how^G5613 in^G1909 the bush^G942 God^G2316 spake^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), I^G1473 am the God^G2316 of Abraham^G11, and^G2532 the God^G2316 of Isaac^G2464, and^G2532 the God^G2316 of Jacob^G2384?

²⁷ He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore badly mistaken.”

KJVHe is^G2076^(G5748) not^G3756 the God^G2316 of the dead^G3498, but^G235 the God^G2316 of the living^G2198^(G5723): ye^G5210 therefore^G3767 do^G4105 greatly^G4183 err^G4105^(G5743).

²⁸ One of the scribes came and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the greatest of all?”

KJVAnd^G2532 one^G1520 of the scribes^G1122 came^G4334^(G5631), and having heard^G191^(G5660) them^G846 reasoning together^G4802^(G5723), and perceiving^G1492^(G5761) that^G3754 he had answered^G611^(G5662) them^G846 well^G2573, asked^G1905^(G5656) him^G846, Which^G4169 is^G2076^(G5748) the first^G4413 commandment^G1785 of all^G3956?

²⁹ Jesus answered, “The greatest is: ‘Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.

KJVAnd^G1161 Jesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5662) him^G846, The^G3754 first^G4413 of all^G3956 the commandments^G1785 is, Hear^G191^(G5720), O Israel^G2474; The Lord^G2962 our^G2257 God^G2316 is^G2076^(G5748) one^G1520 Lord^G2962:

³⁰ You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.

KJVAnd^G2532 thou shalt love^G25^(G5692) the Lord^G2962 thy^G4675 God^G2316 with^G1537 all^G3650 thy^G4675 heart^G2588, and^G2532 with^G1537 all^G3650 thy^G4675 soul^G5590, and^G2532 with^G1537 all^G3650 thy^G4675 mind^G1271, and^G2532 with^G1537 all^G3650 thy^G4675 strength^G2479: this^G3778 is the first^G4413 commandment^G1785.

³¹ The second is like this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”

KJVAnd^G2532 the second^G1208 is like^G3664, namely this^G3778^(G5625)^G846, Thou shalt love^G25^(G5692) thy^G4675 neighbour^G4139 as^G5613 thyself^G4572. There is^G2076^(G5748) none^G3756 other^G243 commandment^G1785 greater^G3187 than these^G5130.

³² The scribe said to him, “Truly, teacher, you have said well that he is one, and there is none other but he;

KJVAnd^G2532 the scribe^G1122 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Well^G2573, Master^G1320, thou hast said^G2036^(G5627) the^G1909 truth^G225: for^G3754 there is^G2076^(G5748) one^G1520 God^G2316; and^G2532 there is^G2076^(G5748) none^G3756 other^G243 but^G4133 he^G846:

³³ and to love him with all the heart, with all the understanding, all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

KJVAnd^G2532 to love^G25^(G5721) him^G846 with^G1537 all^G3650 the heart^G2588, and^G2532 with^G1537 all^G3650 the understanding^G4907, and^G2532 with^G1537 all^G3650 the soul^G5590, and^G2532 with^G1537 all^G3650 the strength^G2479, and^G2532 to love^G25^(G5721) his neighbour^G4139 as^G5613 himself^G1438, is^G2076^(G5748) more^G4119 than all^G3956 whole burnt offerings^G3646 and^G2532 sacrifices^G2378.

³⁴ When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from God’s Kingdom.” No one dared ask him any question after that.

KJVAnd^G2532 when Jesus^G2424 saw^G1492^(G5631) that^G3754 he^G846 answered^G611^(G5662) discreetly^G3562, he said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Thou art^G1488^(G5748) not^G3756 far^G3112 from^G575 the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316. And^G2532 no man^G3762 after that^G3765 durst^G5111^(G5707) ask^G1905^(G5658) him^G846 any question.

³⁵ Jesus responded, as he taught in the temple, “How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G3004^(G5707), while he taught^G1321^(G5723) in^G1722 the temple^G2411, How^G4459 say^G3004^(G5719) the scribes^G1122 that^G3754 Christ^G5547 is^G2076^(G5748) the Son^G5207 of David^G1138?

³⁶ For David himself said in the Holy Spirit, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’

KJVFor^G1063 David^G1138 himself^G846 said^G2036^(G5627) by^G1722 the Holy^G40 Ghost^G4151, The LORD^G2962 said^G2036^(G5627) to my^G3450 Lord^G2962, Sit thou^G2521^(G5737) on^G1537 my^G3450 right hand^G1188, till^G2193^G302 I make^G5087^(G5632) thine^G4675 enemies^G2190 thy^G4675 footstool^G5286^G4228.

³⁷ Therefore David himself calls him Lord, so how can he be his son?” The common people heard him gladly.

KJVDavid^G1138 therefore^G3767 himself^G846 calleth^G3004^(G5719) him^G846 Lord^G2962; and^G2532 whence^G4159 is he^G2076^(G5748) then his^G846 son^G5207? And^G2532 the common^G4183 people^G3793 heard^G191^(G5707) him^G846 gladly^G2234.

³⁸ In his teaching he said to them, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and to get greetings in the marketplaces,

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G3004^(G5707) unto them^G846 in^G1722 his^G846 doctrine^G1322, Beware^G991^(G5720) of^G575 the scribes^G1122, which^G3588 love^G2309^(G5723) to go^G4043^(G5721) in^G1722 long clothing^G4749, and^G2532 love salutations^G783 in^G1722 the marketplaces^G58,

³⁹ and to get the best seats in the synagogues and the best places at feasts,

KJVAnd^G2532 the chief seats^G4410 in^G1722 the synagogues^G4864, and^G2532 the uppermost rooms^G4411 at^G1722 feasts^G1173:

⁴⁰ those who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”

KJVWhich devour^G2719^(G5723) widows^G5503' houses^G3614, and^G2532 for a pretence^G4392 make^G4336 long^G3117 prayers^G4336^(G5740): these^G3778 shall receive^G2983^(G5695) greater^G4055 damnation^G2917.

⁴¹ Jesus sat down opposite the treasury and saw how the multitude cast money into the treasury. Many who were rich cast in much.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 sat^G2523^(G5660) over against^G2713 the treasury^G1049, and beheld^G2334^(G5707) how^G4459 the people^G3793 cast^G906^(G5719) money^G5475 into^G1519 the treasury^G1049: and^G2532 many^G4183 that were rich^G4145 cast in^G906^(G5707) much^G4183.

⁴² A poor widow came and she cast in two small brass coins, which equal a quadrans coin.

KJVAnd^G2532 there came^G2064^(G5631) a certain^G3391 poor^G4434 widow^G5503, and she threw in^G906^(G5627) two^G1417 mites^G3016, which make^G3603 a farthing^G2835.

⁴³ He called his disciples to himself and said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, this poor widow gave more than all those who are giving into the treasury,

KJVAnd^G2532 he called^G4341^(G5666) unto him his^G846 disciples^G3101, and saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, That^G3754 this^G3778 poor^G4434 widow^G5503 hath cast^G906 more^G4119 in^G906^(G5758), than all^G3956 they which have cast^G906^(G5631) into^G1519 the treasury^G1049:

⁴⁴ for they all gave out of their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, gave all that she had to live on.”

KJVFor^G1063 all^G3956 they did cast in^G906^(G5627) of^G1537 their^G846 abundance^G4052^(G5723); but^G1161 she^G3778^(G5625)^G846 of^G1537 her^G846 want^G5304 did cast in^G906^(G5627) all^G3956 that^G3745 she had^G2192^(G5707), even all^G3650 her^G846 living^G979.

KJVAnd^G2532 saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Go your way^G5217^(G5720) into^G1519 the village^G2968 over against^G2713 you^G5216: and^G2532 as soon as^G2112 ye be entered^G1531^(G5740) into^G1519 it^G846, ye shall find^G2147^(G5692) a colt^G4454 tied^G1210^(G5772), whereon^G1909^G3739 never^G3762 man^G444 sat^G2523^(G5758); loose^G3089^(G5660) him^G846, and bring^G71^(G5628) him.

⁵ Some of those who stood there asked them, “What are you doing, untying the young donkey?”

KJVAnd^G2532 certain of them^G5100 that stood^G2476^(G5761) there^G1563 said^G3004^(G5707) unto them^G846, What^G5101 do ye^G4160^(G5719), loosing^G3089^(G5723) the colt^G4454?

⁹ Those who went in front and those who followed cried out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!

KJVAnd^G2532 they that went before^G4254^(G5723), and^G2532 they that followed^G190^(G5723), cried^G2896^(G5707), saying^G3004^(G5723), Hosanna^G5614; Blessed^G2127^(G5772) is he that cometh^G2064^(G5740) in^G1722 the name^G3686 of the Lord^G2962:

¹⁰ Blessed is the kingdom of our father David that is coming in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”

KJVBlessed^G2127^(G5772) be the kingdom^G932 of our^G2257 father^G3962 David^G1138, that cometh^G2064^(G5740) in^G1722 the name^G3686 of the Lord^G2962: Hosanna^G5614 in^G1722 the highest^G5310.

¹³ Seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came to see if perhaps he might find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

KJVAnd^G2532 seeing^G1492^(G5631) a fig tree^G4808 afar off^G3113 having^G2192^(G5723) leaves^G5444, he came^G2064^(G5627), if^G1487 haply^G686 he might find^G2147^(G5692) any thing^G5100 thereon^G1722^G846: and^G2532 when he came^G2064^(G5631) to^G1909 it^G846, he found^G2147^(G5627) nothing^G3762 but^G1508 leaves^G5444; for^G1063 the time^G2540 of figs^G4810 was^G2258^(G5713) not^G3756 yet.

¹⁴ Jesus told it, “May no one ever eat fruit from you again!” and his disciples heard it.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627) unto it^G846, No man^G3367 eat^G5315^(G5630) fruit^G2590 of^G1537 thee^G4675 hereafter^G3371 for^G1519 ever^G165. And^G2532 his^G846 disciples^G3101 heard^G191^(G5707) it.

¹⁷ He taught, saying to them, “Isn’t it written, ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it a den of robbers!”

KJVAnd^G2532 he taught^G1321^(G5707), saying^G3004^(G5723) unto them^G846, Is it^G1125 not^G3756 written^G1125^(G5769),^G3754 My^G3450 house^G3624 shall be called^G2564^(G5701) of all^G3956 nations^G1484 the house^G3624 of prayer^G4335? but^G1161 ye^G5210 have made^G4160^(G5656) it^G846 a den^G4693 of thieves^G3027.

¹⁸ The chief priests and the scribes heard it, and sought how they might destroy him. For they feared him, because all the multitude was astonished at his teaching.

KJVAnd^G2532 the scribes^G1122 and^G2532 chief priests^G749 heard^G191^(G5656) it, and^G2532 sought^G2212^(G5707) how^G4459 they might destroy^G622^(G5692) him^G846: for^G1063 they feared^G5399^(G5711) him^G846, because^G3754 all^G3956 the people^G3793 was astonished^G1605^(G5712) at^G1909 his^G846 doctrine^G1322.

¹⁹ When evening came, he went out of the city.

KJVAnd^G2532 when^G3753 even^G3796 was come^G1096^(G5633), he went^G1607^(G5711) out of^G1854 the city^G4172.

KJVAnd^G2532 in the morning^G4404, as they passed by^G3899^(G5740), they saw^G1492^(G5627) the fig tree^G4808 dried up^G3583^(G5772) from^G1537 the roots^G4491.

KJVAnd^G2532 Peter^G4074 calling to remembrance^G363^(G5679) saith^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, Master^G4461, behold^G2396, the fig tree^G4808 which^G3739 thou cursedst^G2672^(G5662) is withered away^G3583^(G5769).

²² Jesus answered them, “Have faith in God.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 answering^G611^(G5679) saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Have^G2192^(G5720) faith^G4102 in God^G2316.

²³ For most certainly I tell you, whoever may tell this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and doesn’t doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is happening, he shall have whatever he says.

KJVFor^G1063 verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, That^G3754 whosoever^G3739^G302 shall say^G2036^(G5632) unto this^G5129 mountain^G3735, Be thou removed^G142^(G5682), and^G2532 be thou cast^G906^(G5682) into^G1519 the sea^G2281; and^G2532 shall^G1252 not^G3361 doubt^G1252^(G5686) in^G1722 his^G846 heart^G2588, but^G235 shall believe^G4100^(G5661) that^G3754 those things which^G3739 he saith^G3004^(G5719) shall come to pass^G1096^(G5736); he^G846 shall have^G2071^(G5704) whatsoever^G3739^G1437 he saith^G2036^(G5632).

²⁴ Therefore I tell you, all things whatever you pray and ask for, believe that you have received them, and you shall have them.

KJVTherefore^G1223^G5124 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, What^G3745 things^G3956 soever^G302 ye desire^G154^(G5731), when ye pray^G4336^(G5740), believe^G4100^(G5720) that^G3754 ye receive^G2983^(G5719) them, and^G2532 ye^G5213 shall have^G2071^(G5704) them.

²⁵ Whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone; so that your Father, who is in heaven, may also forgive you your transgressions.

KJVAnd^G2532 when^G3752 ye stand^G4739^(G5725) praying^G4336^(G5740), forgive^G863^(G5720), if^G1536 ye have^G2192^(G5719) ought^G1536 against^G2596 any^G5100: that^G2443 your^G5216 Father^G3962 also^G2532 which^G3588 is in^G1722 heaven^G3772 may forgive^G863^(G5632) you^G5213 your^G5216 trespasses^G3900.

²⁶ But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your transgressions.”

KJVBut^G1161 if^G1487 ye^G5210 do^G863 not^G3756 forgive^G863^(G5719), neither^G3761 will^G863 your^G5216 Father^G3962 which^G3588 is in^G1722 heaven^G3772 forgive^G863^(G5692) your^G5216 trespasses^G3900.

KJVAnd^G2532 they come^G2064^(G5736) again^G3825 to^G1519 Jerusalem^G2414: and^G2532 as he^G846 was walking^G4043^(G5723) in^G1722 the temple^G2411, there come^G2064^(G5736) to^G4314 him^G846 the chief priests^G749, and^G2532 the scribes^G1122, and^G2532 the elders^G4245,

²⁸ and they began saying to him, “By what authority do you do these things? Or who gave you this authority to do these things?”

KJVAnd^G2532 say^G3004^(G5719) unto him^G846, By^G1722 what^G4169 authority^G1849 doest thou^G4160^(G5719) these things^G5023? and^G2532 who^G5101 gave^G1325^(G5656) thee^G4671 this^G5026 authority^G1849 to^G2443 do^G4160^(G5725) these things^G5023?

²⁹ Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

KJVAnd^G1161 Jesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, I will^G1905 also^G2504 ask^G1905^(G5692) of you^G5209 one^G1520 question^G3056, and^G2532 answer^G611^(G5676) me^G3427, and^G2532 I will tell^G2046^(G5692) you^G5213 by^G1722 what^G4169 authority^G1849 I do^G4160^(G5719) these things^G5023.

³⁰ The baptism of John—was it from heaven, or from men? Answer me.”

KJVThe baptism^G908 of John^G2491, was^G2258^(G5713) it from^G1537 heaven^G3772, or^G2228 of^G1537 men^G444? answer^G611^(G5676) me^G3427.

³¹ They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we should say, ‘From heaven;’ he will say, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’

KJVAnd^G2532 they reasoned^G3049^(G5711) with^G4314 themselves^G1438, saying^G3004^(G5723), If^G1437 we shall say^G2036^(G5632), From^G1537 heaven^G3772; he will say^G2046^(G5692), Why^G1302 then^G3767 did ye^G4100 not^G3756 believe^G4100^(G5656) him^G846?

³² If we should say, ‘From men’”—they feared the people, for all held John to really be a prophet.

KJVBut^G235 if^G1437 we shall say^G2036^(G5632), Of^G1537 men^G444; they feared^G5399^(G5711) the people^G2992: for^G1063 all^G537 men counted^G2192^(G5707) John^G2491, that^G3754 he was^G2258^(G5713) a prophet^G4396 indeed^G3689.

³³ They answered Jesus, “We don’t know.” Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”

KJVAnd^G2532 they answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G3004^(G5719) unto Jesus^G2424, We^G1492 cannot^G3756 tell^G1492^(G5758). And^G2532 Jesus^G2424 answering^G611^(G5679) saith^G3004^(G5719) unto them^G846, Neither^G3761 do I^G1473 tell^G3004^(G5719) you^G5213 by^G1722 what^G4169 authority^G1849 I do^G4160^(G5719) these things^G5023.
