The Gospel of Luke
LUKE 1:1 Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in
order a declaration of those things which are most surely
believed among us,
LUKE 1:2 Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the
beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;
LUKE 1:3 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,
LUKE 1:4 That thou mightest know the certainty of those things,
wherein thou hast been instructed.
LUKE 1:5 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.
LUKE 1:6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all
the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
LUKE 1:7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was
barren, and they both were {now} well stricken in years.
LUKE 1:8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's
office before God in the order of his course,
LUKE 1:9 According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot
was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
LUKE 1:10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying
without at the time of incense.
LUKE 1:11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord
standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
LUKE 1:12 And when Zacharias saw {him}, he was troubled, and fear
fell upon him.
LUKE 1:13 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.
LUKE 1:14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall
rejoice at his birth.
LUKE 1:15 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.
LUKE 1:16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the
Lord their God.
LUKE 1:17 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.
LUKE 1:18 And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know
this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
LUKE 1:19 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.
LUKE 1:20 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.
LUKE 1:21 And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that
he tarried so long in the temple.
LUKE 1:22 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.
LUKE 1:23 And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his
ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.
LUKE 1:24 And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and
hid herself five months, saying,
LUKE 1:25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he
looked on {me}, to take away my reproach among men.
LUKE 1:26 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from
God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
LUKE 1:27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of
the house of David; and the virgin's name {was} Mary.
LUKE 1:28 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.
LUKE 1:29 And when she saw {him}, she was troubled at his saying,
and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.
LUKE 1:30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou
hast found favour with God.
LUKE 1:31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring
forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus.
LUKE 1:32 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:
LUKE 1:33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever;
and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
LUKE 1:34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be,
seeing I know not a man?
LUKE 1:35 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.
LUKE 1:36 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.
LUKE 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.
LUKE 1:38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it
unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
LUKE 1:39 And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill
country with haste, into a city of Juda;
LUKE 1:40 And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted
Elisabeth.
LUKE 1:41 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:
LUKE 1:42 And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed
{art} thou among women, and blessed {is} the fruit of thy womb.
LUKE 1:43 And whence {is} this to me, that the mother of my Lord
should come to me?
LUKE 1:44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded
in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.
LUKE 1:45 And blessed {is} she that believed: for there shall be
a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.
LUKE 1:46 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
LUKE 1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
LUKE 1:48 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden:
for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me
blessed.
LUKE 1:49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and
holy {is} his name.
LUKE 1:50 And his mercy {is} on them that fear him from
generation to generation.
LUKE 1:51 He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered
the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
LUKE 1:52 He hath put down the mighty from {their} seats, and
exalted them of low degree.
LUKE 1:53 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the
rich he hath sent empty away.
LUKE 1:54 He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of
{his} mercy;
LUKE 1:55 As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed
for ever.
LUKE 1:56 And Mary abode with her about three months, and
returned to her own house.
LUKE 1:57 Now Elisabeth's full time came that she should be
delivered; and she brought forth a son.
LUKE 1:58 And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord
had shewed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.
LUKE 1:59 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.
LUKE 1:60 And his mother answered and said, Not {so}; but he
shall be called John.
LUKE 1:61 And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred
that is called by this name.
LUKE 1:62 And they made signs to his father, how he would have
him called.
LUKE 1:63 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying,
His name is John. And they marvelled all.
LUKE 1:64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue
{loosed}, and he spake, and praised God.
LUKE 1:65 And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and
all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill
country of Judaea.
LUKE 1:66 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.
LUKE 1:67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy
Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
LUKE 1:68 Blessed {be} the Lord God of Israel; for he hath
visited and redeemed his people,
LUKE 1:69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the
house of his servant David;
LUKE 1:70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which
have been since the world began:
LUKE 1:71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the
hand of all that hate us;
LUKE 1:72 To perform the mercy {promised} to our fathers, and to
remember his holy covenant;
LUKE 1:73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
LUKE 1:74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered
out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
LUKE 1:75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days
of our life.
LUKE 1:76 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;
LUKE 1:77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the
remission of their sins,
LUKE 1:78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the
dayspring from on high hath visited us,
LUKE 1:79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and {in} the
shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
LUKE 1:80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was
in the deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel.
LUKE 2:1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a
decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.
LUKE 2:2 ({And} this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was
governor of Syria.)
LUKE 2:3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
LUKE 2:4 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:)
LUKE 2:5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great
with child.
LUKE 2:6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days
were accomplished that she should be delivered.
LUKE 2:7 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.
LUKE 2:8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in
the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
LUKE 2:9 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.
LUKE 2:10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I
bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all
people.
LUKE 2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a
Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
LUKE 2:12 And this {shall be} a sign unto you; Ye shall find the
babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
LUKE 2:13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of
the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
LUKE 2:14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good
will toward men.
LUKE 2:15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from
them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now
go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass,
which the Lord hath made known unto us.
LUKE 2:16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph,
and the babe lying in a manger.
LUKE 2:17 And when they had seen {it}, they made known abroad the
saying which was told them concerning this child.
LUKE 2:18 And all they that heard {it} wondered at those things
which were told them by the shepherds.
LUKE 2:19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered {them} in
her heart.
LUKE 2:20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God
for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told
unto them.
LUKE 2:21 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.
LUKE 2:22 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;
LUKE 2:23 (As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male
that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;)
LUKE 2:24 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.
LUKE 2:25 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.
LUKE 2:26 And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he
should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.
LUKE 2:27 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,
LUKE 2:28 Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and
said,
LUKE 2:29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace,
according to thy word:
LUKE 2:30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
LUKE 2:31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people;
LUKE 2:32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy
people Israel.
LUKE 2:33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things
which were spoken of him.
LUKE 2:34 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;
LUKE 2:35 (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,)
that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
LUKE 2:36 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;
LUKE 2:37 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.
LUKE 2:38 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.
LUKE 2:39 And when they had performed all things according to the
law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city
Nazareth.
LUKE 2:40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled
with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
LUKE 2:41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the
feast of the passover.
LUKE 2:42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to
Jerusalem after the custom of the feast.
LUKE 2:43 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}.
LUKE 2:44 But they, supposing him to have been in the company,
went a day's journey; and they sought him among {their} kinsfolk
and acquaintance.
LUKE 2:45 And when they found him not, they turned back again to
Jerusalem, seeking him.
LUKE 2:46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found
him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both
hearing them, and asking them questions.
LUKE 2:47 And all that heard him were astonished at his
understanding and answers.
LUKE 2:48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother
said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy
father and I have sought thee sorrowing.
LUKE 2:49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me?
wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?
LUKE 2:50 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto
them.
LUKE 2:51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and
was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in
her heart.
LUKE 2:52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in
favour with God and man.
LUKE 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,
LUKE 3:2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of
God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
LUKE 3:3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching
the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
LUKE 3:4 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.
LUKE 3:5 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;
LUKE 3:6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
LUKE 3:7 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?
LUKE 3:8 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.
LUKE 3:9 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.
LUKE 3:10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do
then?
LUKE 3:11 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.
LUKE 3:12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto
him, Master, what shall we do?
LUKE 3:13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is
appointed you.
LUKE 3:14 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.
LUKE 3:15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men
mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or
not;
LUKE 3:16 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:
LUKE 3:17 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.
LUKE 3:18 And many other things in his exhortation preached he
unto the people.
LUKE 3:19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for
Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which
Herod had done,
LUKE 3:20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in
prison.
LUKE 3:21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass,
that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was
opened,
LUKE 3:22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a
dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art
my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
LUKE 3:23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of
age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was {the
son} of Heli,
LUKE 3:24 Which was {the son} of Matthat, which was {the son} of
Levi, which was {the son} of Melchi, which was {the son} of
Janna, which was {the son} of Joseph,
LUKE 3:25 Which was {the son} of Mattathias, which was {the son}
of Amos, which was {the son} of Naum, which was {the son} of
Esli, which was {the son} of Nagge,

Mattathias, which was {the son} of Semei, which was {the son} of
Joseph, which was {the son} of Juda,
LUKE 3:27 Which was {the son} of Joanna, which was {the son} of
Rhesa, which was {the son} of Zorobabel, which was {the son} of
Salathiel, which was {the son} of Neri,
LUKE 3:28 Which was {the son} of Melchi, which was {the son} of
Addi, which was {the son} of Cosam, which was {the son} of
Elmodam, which was {the son} of Er,
LUKE 3:29 Which was {the son} of Jose, which was {the son} of
Eliezer, which was {the son} of Jorim, which was {the son} of
Matthat, which was {the son} of Levi,
LUKE 3:30 Which was {the son} of Simeon, which was {the son} of
Juda, which was {the son} of Joseph, which was {the son} of
Jonan, which was {the son} of Eliakim,
LUKE 3:31 Which was {the son} of Melea, which was {the son} of
Menan, which was {the son} of Mattatha, which was {the son} of
Nathan, which was {the son} of David,
LUKE 3:32 Which was {the son} of Jesse, which was {the son} of
Obed, which was {the son} of Booz, which was {the son} of Salmon,
which was {the son} of Naasson,
LUKE 3:33 Which was {the son} of Aminadab, which was {the son} of
Aram, which was {the son} of Esrom, which was {the son} of
Phares, which was {the son} of Juda,
LUKE 3:34 Which was {the son} of Jacob, which was {the son} of
Isaac, which was {the son} of Abraham, which was {the son} of
Thara, which was {the son} of Nachor,
LUKE 3:35 Which was {the son} of Saruch, which was {the son} of
Ragau, which was {the son} of Phalec, which was {the son} of
Heber, which was {the son} of Sala,
LUKE 3:36 Which was {the son} of Cainan, which was {the son} of
Arphaxad, which was {the son} of Sem, which was {the son} of Noe,
which was {the son} of Lamech,
LUKE 3:37 Which was {the son} of Mathusala, which was {the son}
of Enoch, which was {the son} of Jared, which was {the son} of
Maleleel, which was {the son} of Cainan,
LUKE 3:38 Which was {the son} of Enos, which was {the son} of
Seth, which was {the son} of Adam, which was {the son} of God.
LUKE 4:1 And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from
Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
LUKE 4:2 Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days
he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward
hungered.
LUKE 4:3 And the devil said unto him, If thou be the Son of God,
command this stone that it be made bread.
LUKE 4:4 And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man
shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.
LUKE 4:5 And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain,
shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of
time.
LUKE 4:6 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.
LUKE 4:7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.
LUKE 4:8 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.
LUKE 4:9 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:
LUKE 4:10 For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over
thee, to keep thee:
LUKE 4:11 And in {their} hands they shall bear thee up, lest at
any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
LUKE 4:12 And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou
shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
LUKE 4:13 And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he
departed from him for a season.
LUKE 4:14 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.
LUKE 4:15 And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of
all.
LUKE 4:16 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.
LUKE 4:17 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,
LUKE 4:18 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,
LUKE 4:19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
LUKE 4:20 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.
LUKE 4:21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this
scripture fulfilled in your ears.
LUKE 4:22 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?
LUKE 4:23 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.
LUKE 4:24 And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is
accepted in his own country.
LUKE 4:25 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;
LUKE 4:26 But unto none of them was Elias sent, save unto
Sarepta, {a city} of Sidon, unto a woman {that was} a widow.
LUKE 4:27 And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus
the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the
Syrian.
LUKE 4:28 And all they in the synagogue, when they heard these
things, were filled with wrath,
LUKE 4:29 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.
LUKE 4:30 But he passing through the midst of them went his way,
LUKE 4:31 And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and
taught them on the sabbath days.
LUKE 4:32 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his word
was with power.
LUKE 4:33 And in the synagogue there was a man, which had a
spirit of an unclean devil, and cried out with a loud voice,
LUKE 4:34 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.
LUKE 4:35 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.
LUKE 4:36 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.
LUKE 4:37 And the fame of him went out into every place of the
country round about.
LUKE 4:38 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.
LUKE 4:39 And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it
left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them.
LUKE 4:40 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.
LUKE 4:41 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.
LUKE 4:42 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.
LUKE 4:43 And he said unto them, I must preach the kingdom of God
to other cities also: for therefore am I sent.
LUKE 4:44 And he preached in the synagogues of Galilee.
LUKE 5:1 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,
LUKE 5:2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the
fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing {their} nets.
LUKE 5:3 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.
LUKE 5:4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon,
Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
LUKE 5:5 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.
LUKE 5:6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great
multitude of fishes: and their net brake.
LUKE 5:7 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.
LUKE 5:8 When Simon Peter saw {it}, he fell down at Jesus' knees,
saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.
LUKE 5:9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at
the draught of the fishes which they had taken:
LUKE 5:10 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.
LUKE 5:11 And when they had brought their ships to land, they
forsook all, and followed him.
LUKE 5:12 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.
LUKE 5:13 And he put forth {his} hand, and touched him, saying, I
will: be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from
him.
LUKE 5:14 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.
LUKE 5:15 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.
LUKE 5:16 And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and
prayed.
LUKE 5:17 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.
LUKE 5:18 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.
LUKE 5:19 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.
LUKE 5:20 And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy
sins are forgiven thee.
LUKE 5:21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason,
saying, Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Who can forgive
sins, but God alone?
LUKE 5:22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering
said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts?
LUKE 5:23 Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee;
or to say, Rise up and walk?
LUKE 5:24 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.
LUKE 5:25 And immediately he rose up before them, and took up
that whereon he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying
God.
LUKE 5:26 And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and
were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to
day.
LUKE 5:27 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.
LUKE 5:28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him.
LUKE 5:29 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.
LUKE 5:30 But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his
disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and
sinners?
LUKE 5:31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole
need not a physician; but they that are sick.
LUKE 5:32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to
repentance.
LUKE 5:33 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?
LUKE 5:34 And he said unto them, Can ye make the children of the
bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?
LUKE 5:35 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be
taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.
LUKE 5:36 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.
LUKE 5:37 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.
LUKE 5:38 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are
preserved.
LUKE 5:39 No man also having drunk old {wine} straightway
desireth new: for he saith, the old is better.
LUKE 6:1 And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the
first, that he went through the corn fields; and his disciples
plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing {them} in {their}
hands.
LUKE 6:2 And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do ye
that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?
LUKE 6:3 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;
LUKE 6:4 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?
LUKE 6:5 And he said unto them, That the Son of man is Lord also
of the sabbath.
LUKE 6:6 And it came to pass also on another sabbath, that he
entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man whose
right hand was withered.
LUKE 6:7 And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he
would heal on the sabbath day; that they might find an accusation
against him.
LUKE 6:8 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.
LUKE 6:9 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}?
LUKE 6:10 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.
LUKE 6:11 And they were filled with madness; and communed one
with another what they might do to Jesus.
LUKE 6:12 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.
LUKE 6:13 And when it was day, he called {unto him} his
disciples: and of them he chose twelve, whom also he named
apostles;
LUKE 6:14 Simon, (whom he also named Peter,) and Andrew his
brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
LUKE 6:15 Matthew and Thomas, James the {son} of Alphaeus, and
Simon called Zelotes,
LUKE 6:16 And Judas {the brother} of James, and Judas Iscariot,
which also was the traitor.
LUKE 6:17 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;
LUKE 6:18 And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they
were healed.
LUKE 6:19 And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there
went virtue out of him, and healed {them} all.
LUKE 6:20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said,
Blessed {be ye} poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
LUKE 6:21 Blessed {are ye} that hunger now: for ye shall be
filled. Blessed {are ye} that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
LUKE 6:22 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.
LUKE 6:23 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.
LUKE 6:24 But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received
your consolation.
LUKE 6:25 Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe
unto you that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.
LUKE 6:26 Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for
so did their fathers to the false prophets.
LUKE 6:27 But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do
good to them which hate you,
LUKE 6:28 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which
despitefully use you.
LUKE 6:29 And unto him that smiteth thee on the {one} cheek offer
also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not {to
take thy} coat also.
LUKE 6:30 Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that
taketh away thy goods ask {them} not again.
LUKE 6:31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also
to them likewise.
LUKE 6:32 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye?
for sinners also love those that love them.
LUKE 6:33 And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what
thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.
LUKE 6:34 And if ye lend {to them} of whom ye hope to receive,
what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive
as much again.
LUKE 6:35 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.
LUKE 6:36 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is
merciful.
LUKE 6:37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and
ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
LUKE 6:38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure,
pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men
give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete
withal it shall be measured to you again.
LUKE 6:39 And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead
the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?
LUKE 6:40 The disciple is not above his master: but every one
that is perfect shall be as his master.
LUKE 6:41 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy
brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own
eye?
LUKE 6:42 Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let
me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself
beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite,
cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou
see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.
LUKE 6:43 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit;
neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
LUKE 6:44 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns
men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
LUKE 6:45 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart
bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the
evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for
of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
LUKE 6:46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things
which I say?
LUKE 6:47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and
doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:
LUKE 6:48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep,
and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the
stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it:
for it was founded upon a rock.
LUKE 6:49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that
without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which
the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the
ruin of that house was great.
LUKE 7:1 Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of
the people, he entered into Capernaum.
LUKE 7:2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto
him, was sick, and ready to die.
LUKE 7:3 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.
LUKE 7:4 And when they came to Jesus, they besought him
instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:
LUKE 7:5 For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a
synagogue.
LUKE 7:6 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:
LUKE 7:7 Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto
thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.
LUKE 7:8 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}.
LUKE 7:9 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.
LUKE 7:10 And they that were sent, returning to the house, found
the servant whole that had been sick.
LUKE 7:11 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.
LUKE 7:12 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.
LUKE 7:13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her,
and said unto her, Weep not.
LUKE 7:14 And he came and touched the bier: and they that bare
{him} stood still. And he said, Young man, I say unto thee,
Arise.
LUKE 7:15 And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he
delivered him to his mother.
LUKE 7:16 And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God,
saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God
hath visited his people.
LUKE 7:17 And this rumour of him went forth throughout all
Judaea, and throughout all the region round about.
LUKE 7:18 And the disciples of John shewed him of all these
things.
LUKE 7:19 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?
LUKE 7:20 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?
LUKE 7:21 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.
LUKE 7:22 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.
LUKE 7:23 And blessed is {he}, whosoever shall not be offended in
me.
LUKE 7:24 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?
LUKE 7:25 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.
LUKE 7:26 But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say
unto you, and much more than a prophet.
LUKE 7:27 This is {he}, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my
messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before
thee.
LUKE 7:28 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.
LUKE 7:29 And all the people that heard {him}, and the publicans,
justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
LUKE 7:30 But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of
God against themselves, being not baptized of him.
LUKE 7:31 And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men
of this generation? and to what are they like?
LUKE 7:32 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.
LUKE 7:33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor
drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.
LUKE 7:34 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!
LUKE 7:35 But wisdom is justified of all her children.
LUKE 7:36 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.
LUKE 7:37 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,
LUKE 7:38 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.
LUKE 7:39 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.
LUKE 7:40 And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have
somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.
LUKE 7:41 There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the
one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
LUKE 7:42 And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave
them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?
LUKE 7:43 Simon answered and said, I suppose that {he}, to whom
he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.
LUKE 7:44 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.
LUKE 7:45 Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I
came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
LUKE 7:46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman
hath anointed my feet with ointment.
LUKE 7:47 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.
LUKE 7:48 And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.
LUKE 7:49 And they that sat at meat with him began to say within
themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?
LUKE 7:50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go
in peace.
LUKE 8:1 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,
LUKE 8:2 And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits
and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven
devils,
LUKE 8:3 And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and
Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their
substance.
LUKE 8:4 And when much people were gathered together, and were
come to him out of every city, he spake by a parable:
LUKE 8:5 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.
LUKE 8:6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung
up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.
LUKE 8:7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up
with it, and choked it.
LUKE 8:8 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.
LUKE 8:9 And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this
parable be?
LUKE 8:10 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.
LUKE 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
LUKE 8:12 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.
LUKE 8:13 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.
LUKE 8:14 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.
LUKE 8:15 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.
LUKE 8:16 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.
LUKE 8:17 For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest;
neither {any thing} hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.
LUKE 8:18 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.
LUKE 8:19 Then came to him {his} mother and his brethren, and
could not come at him for the press.
LUKE 8:20 And it was told him {by certain} which said, Thy mother
and thy brethren stand without, desiring to see thee.
LUKE 8:21 And he answered and said unto them, My mother and my
brethren are these which hear the word of God, and do it.
LUKE 8:22 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.
LUKE 8:23 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.
LUKE 8:24 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.
LUKE 8:25 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.
LUKE 8:26 And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which
is over against Galilee.
LUKE 8:27 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.
LUKE 8:28 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.
LUKE 8:29 (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.)
LUKE 8:30 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he
said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.
LUKE 8:31 And they besought him that he would not command them to
go out into the deep.
LUKE 8:32 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.
LUKE 8:33 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.
LUKE 8:34 When they that fed {them} saw what was done, they fled,
and went and told {it} in the city and in the country.
LUKE 8:35 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.
LUKE 8:36 They also which saw {it} told them by what means he
that was possessed of the devils was healed.
LUKE 8:37 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.
LUKE 8:38 Now the man out of whom the devils were departed
besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away,
saying,
LUKE 8:39 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.
LUKE 8:40 And it came to pass, that, when Jesus was returned, the
people {gladly} received him: for they were all waiting for him.
LUKE 8:41 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:
LUKE 8:42 For he had one only daughter, about twelve years of
age, and she lay a dying. But as he went the people thronged him.
LUKE 8:43 And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years,
which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be
healed of any,
LUKE 8:44 Came behind {him}, and touched the border of his
garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched.
LUKE 8:45 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?
LUKE 8:46 And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I
perceive that virtue is gone out of me.
LUKE 8:47 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.
LUKE 8:48 And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy
faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.
LUKE 8:49 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.
LUKE 8:50 But when Jesus heard {it}, he answered him, saying,
Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole.
LUKE 8:51 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.
LUKE 8:52 And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not;
she is not dead, but sleepeth.
LUKE 8:53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was
dead.
LUKE 8:54 And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and
called, saying, Maid, arise.
LUKE 8:55 And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway:
and he commanded to give her meat.
LUKE 8:56 And her parents were astonished: but he charged them
that they should tell no man what was done.
LUKE 9:1 Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave
them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.
LUKE 9:2 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to
heal the sick.
LUKE 9:3 And he said unto them, Take nothing for {your} journey,
neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither
have two coats apiece.
LUKE 9:4 And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and
thence depart.
LUKE 9:5 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.
LUKE 9:6 And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching
the gospel, and healing every where.
LUKE 9:7 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;
LUKE 9:8 And of some, that Elias had appeared; and of others,
that one of the old prophets was risen again.
LUKE 9:9 And Herod said, John have I beheaded: but who is this,
of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him.
LUKE 9:10 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.
LUKE 9:11 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.
LUKE 9:12 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.
LUKE 9:13 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.
LUKE 9:14 For they were about five thousand men. And he said to
his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company.
LUKE 9:15 And they did so, and made them all sit down.
LUKE 9:16 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.
LUKE 9:17 And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was
taken up of fragments that remained to them twelve baskets.
LUKE 9:18 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?
LUKE 9:19 They answering said, John the Baptist; but some {say},
Elias; and others {say}, that one of the old prophets is risen
again.
LUKE 9:20 He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter
answering said, The Christ of God.
LUKE 9:21 And he straitly charged them, and commanded {them} to
tell no man that thing;
LUKE 9:22 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.
LUKE 9:23 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.
LUKE 9:24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but
whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
LUKE 9:25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole
world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
LUKE 9:26 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.
LUKE 9:27 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.
LUKE 9:28 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.
LUKE 9:29 And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was
altered, and his raiment {was} white {and} glistering.
LUKE 9:30 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were
Moses and Elias:
LUKE 9:31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which
he should accomplish at Jerusalem.
LUKE 9:32 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.
LUKE 9:33 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.
LUKE 9:34 While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and
overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the
cloud.
LUKE 9:35 And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This
is my beloved Son: hear him.
LUKE 9:36 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.
LUKE 9:37 And it came to pass, that on the next day, when they
were come down from the hill, much people met him.
LUKE 9:38 And, behold, a man of the company cried out, saying,
Master, I beseech thee, look upon my son: for he is mine only
child.
LUKE 9:39 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.
LUKE 9:40 And I besought thy disciples to cast him out; and they
could not.
LUKE 9:41 And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse
generation, how long shall I be with you, and suffer you? Bring
thy son hither.
LUKE 9:42 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.
LUKE 9:43 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,
LUKE 9:44 Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son
of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.
LUKE 9:45 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.
LUKE 9:46 Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them
should be greatest.
LUKE 9:47 And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took
a child, and set him by him,
LUKE 9:48 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.
LUKE 9:49 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.
LUKE 9:50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid {him} not: for he that
is not against us is for us.
LUKE 9:51 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,
LUKE 9:52 And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and
entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.
LUKE 9:53 And they did not receive him, because his face was as
though he would go to Jerusalem.
LUKE 9:54 And when his disciples James and John saw {this}, they
said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from
heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?
LUKE 9:55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not
what manner of spirit ye are of.
LUKE 9:56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives,
but to save {them}. And they went to another village.
LUKE 9:57 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.
LUKE 9:58 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.
LUKE 9:59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord,
suffer me first to go and bury my father.
LUKE 9:60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but
go thou and preach the kingdom of God.
LUKE 9:61 And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but
let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.
LUKE 9:62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to
the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
LUKE 10:1 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.
LUKE 10:2 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.
LUKE 10:3 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among
wolves.
LUKE 10:4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute
no man by the way.
LUKE 10:5 And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace
{be} to this house.
LUKE 10:6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest
upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.
LUKE 10:7 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.
LUKE 10:8 And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive
you, eat such things as are set before you:
LUKE 10:9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them,
The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
LUKE 10:10 But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive
you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,
LUKE 10:11 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.
LUKE 10:12 But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in
that day for Sodom, than for that city.
LUKE 10:13 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.
LUKE 10:14 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at
the judgment, than for you.
LUKE 10:15 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven,
shalt be thrust down to hell.
LUKE 10:16 He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth
you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that
sent me.
LUKE 10:17 And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord,
even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
LUKE 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning
fall from heaven.
LUKE 10:19 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.
LUKE 10:20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits
are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are
written in heaven.
LUKE 10:21 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.
LUKE 10:22 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}.
LUKE 10:23 And he turned him unto {his} disciples, and said
privately, Blessed {are} the eyes which see the things that ye
see:
LUKE 10:24 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}.
LUKE 10:25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted
him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
LUKE 10:26 He said unto him, What is written in the law? how
readest thou?
LUKE 10:27 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.
LUKE 10:28 And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this
do, and thou shalt live.
LUKE 10:29 But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus,
And who is my neighbour?
LUKE 10:30 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.
LUKE 10:31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that
way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
LUKE 10:32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came
and looked {on him}, and passed by on the other side.
LUKE 10:33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where
he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion {on him},
LUKE 10:34 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.
LUKE 10:35 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.
LUKE 10:36 Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour
unto him that fell among the thieves?
LUKE 10:37 And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said
Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
LUKE 10:38 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.
LUKE 10:39 And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at
Jesus' feet, and heard his word.
LUKE 10:40 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.
LUKE 10:41 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha,
thou art careful and troubled about many things:
LUKE 10:42 But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that
good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
LUKE 11:1 And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a
certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto
him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.
LUKE 11:2 And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father
which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy
will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.
LUKE 11:3 Give us day by day our daily bread.
LUKE 11:4 And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one
that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but
deliver us from evil.
LUKE 11:5 And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a
friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him,
Friend, lend me three loaves;
LUKE 11:6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and
I have nothing to set before him?
LUKE 11:7 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.
LUKE 11:8 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.
LUKE 11:9 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.
LUKE 11:10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that
seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
LUKE 11:11 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?
LUKE 11:12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a
scorpion?
LUKE 11:13 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?
LUKE 11:14 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.
LUKE 11:15 But some of them said, He casteth out devils through
Beelzebub the chief of the devils.
LUKE 11:16 And others, tempting {him}, sought of him a sign from
heaven.
LUKE 11:17 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.
LUKE 11:18 If Satan also be divided against himself, how shall
his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out devils through
Beelzebub.
LUKE 11:19 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your
sons cast {them} out? therefore shall they be your judges.
LUKE 11:20 But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no
doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.
LUKE 11:21 When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods
are in peace:
LUKE 11:22 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.
LUKE 11:23 He that is not with me is against me: and he that
gathereth not with me scattereth.
LUKE 11:24 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.
LUKE 11:25 And when he cometh, he findeth {it} swept and
garnished.
LUKE 11:26 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.
LUKE 11:27 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.
LUKE 11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed {are} they that hear
the word of God, and keep it.
LUKE 11:29 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.
LUKE 11:30 For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall
also the Son of man be to this generation.
LUKE 11:31 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.
LUKE 11:32 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.
LUKE 11:33 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth {it} in
a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick,
that they which come in may see the light.
LUKE 11:34 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 {is} full of darkness.
LUKE 11:35 Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be
not darkness.
LUKE 11:36 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.
LUKE 11:37 And as he spake, a certain Pharisee besought him to
dine with him: and he went in, and sat down to meat.
LUKE 11:38 And when the Pharisee saw {it}, he marvelled that he
had not first washed before dinner.
LUKE 11:39 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.
LUKE 11:40 {Ye} fools, did not he that made that which is without
make that which is within also?
LUKE 11:41 But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and,
behold, all things are clean unto you.
LUKE 11:42 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.
LUKE 11:43 Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost
seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets.
LUKE 11:44 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}.
LUKE 11:45 Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto him,
Master, thus saying thou reproachest us also.
LUKE 11:46 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.
LUKE 11:47 Woe unto you! for ye build the sepulchres of the
prophets, and your fathers killed them.
LUKE 11:48 Truly ye bear witness that ye allow the deeds of your
fathers: for they indeed killed them, and ye build their
sepulchres.
LUKE 11:49 Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send
them prophets and apostles, and {some} of them they shall slay
and persecute:
LUKE 11:50 That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed
from the foundation of the world, may be required of this
generation;
LUKE 11:51 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.
LUKE 11:52 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.
LUKE 11:53 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:
LUKE 11:54 Laying wait for him, and seeking to catch something
out of his mouth, that they might accuse him.
LUKE 12:1 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.
LUKE 12:2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be
revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.
LUKE 12:3 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.
LUKE 12:4 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.
LUKE 12:5 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.
LUKE 12:6 Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not
one of them is forgotten before God?
LUKE 12:7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.
LUKE 12:8 Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before
men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of
God:
LUKE 12:9 But he that denieth me before men shall be denied
before the angels of God.
LUKE 12:10 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.
LUKE 12:11 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:
LUKE 12:12 For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour
what ye ought to say.
LUKE 12:13 And one of the company said unto him, Master, speak to
my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.
LUKE 12:14 And he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a
divider over you?
LUKE 12:15 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.
LUKE 12:16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground
of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
LUKE 12:17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I
do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
LUKE 12:18 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.
LUKE 12:19 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.
LUKE 12:20 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?
LUKE 12:21 So {is} he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is
not rich toward God.
LUKE 12:22 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.
LUKE 12:23 The life is more than meat, and the body {is more}
than raiment.
LUKE 12:24 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?
LUKE 12:25 And which of you with taking thought can add to his
stature one cubit?
LUKE 12:26 If ye then be not able to do that thing which is
least, why take ye thought for the rest?
LUKE 12:27 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.
LUKE 12:28 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?
LUKE 12:29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall
drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind.
LUKE 12:30 For all these things do the nations of the world seek
after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things.
LUKE 12:31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these
things shall be added unto you.
LUKE 12:32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good
pleasure to give you the kingdom.
LUKE 12:33 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.
LUKE 12:34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be
also.
LUKE 12:35 Let your loins be girded about, and {your} lights
burning;
LUKE 12:36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their
lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh
and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.
LUKE 12:37 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.
LUKE 12:38 And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in
the third watch, and find {them} so, blessed are those servants.
LUKE 12:39 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 house to be broken through.
LUKE 12:40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh
at an hour when ye think not.
LUKE 12:41 Then Peter said unto him, Lord, speakest thou this
parable unto us, or even to all?
LUKE 12:42 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?
LUKE 12:43 Blessed {is} that servant, whom his lord when he
cometh shall find so doing.
LUKE 12:44 Of a truth I say unto you, that he will make him ruler
over all that he hath.
LUKE 12:45 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;
LUKE 12:46 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.
LUKE 12:47 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}.
LUKE 12:48 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.
LUKE 12:49 I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I,
if it be already kindled?
LUKE 12:50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I
straitened till it be accomplished!
LUKE 12:51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I
tell you, Nay; but rather division:
LUKE 12:52 For from henceforth there shall be five in one house
divided, three against two, and two against three.
LUKE 12:53 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.
LUKE 12:54 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.
LUKE 12:55 And when {ye see} the south wind blow, ye say, There
will be heat; and it cometh to pass.
LUKE 12:56 {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?
LUKE 12:57 Yea, and why even of yourselves judge ye not what is
right?
LUKE 12:58 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.
LUKE 12:59 I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou
hast paid the very last mite.
LUKE 13:1 There were present at that season some that told him of
the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their
sacrifices.
LUKE 13:2 And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that
these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because
they suffered such things?
LUKE 13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all
likewise perish.
LUKE 13:4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell,
and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that
dwelt in Jerusalem?
LUKE 13:5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all
likewise perish.
LUKE 13:6 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.
LUKE 13:7 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?
LUKE 13:8 And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this
year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung {it}:
LUKE 13:9 And if it bear fruit, {well}: and if not, {then} after
that thou shalt cut it down.
LUKE 13:10 And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the
sabbath.
LUKE 13:11 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}.
LUKE 13:12 And when Jesus saw her, he called {her to him}, and
said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.
LUKE 13:13 And he laid {his} hands on her: and immediately she
was made straight, and glorified God.
LUKE 13:14 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.
LUKE 13:15 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?
LUKE 13:16 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?
LUKE 13:17 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.
LUKE 13:18 Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like?
and whereunto shall I resemble it?
LUKE 13:19 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.
LUKE 13:20 And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom
of God?
LUKE 13:21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three
measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
LUKE 13:22 And he went through the cities and villages, teaching,
and journeying toward Jerusalem.
LUKE 13:23 Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be
saved? And he said unto them,
LUKE 13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say
unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
LUKE 13:25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and
hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to
knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall
answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:
LUKE 13:26 Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in
thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.
LUKE 13:27 But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye
are; depart from me, all {ye} workers of iniquity.
LUKE 13:28 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye
shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in
the kingdom of God, and you {yourselves} thrust out.
LUKE 13:29 And they shall come from the east, and {from} the
west, and from the north, and {from} the south, and shall sit
down in the kingdom of God.
LUKE 13:30 And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and
there are first which shall be last.
LUKE 13:31 The same day there came certain of the Pharisees,
saying unto him, Get thee out, and depart hence: for Herod will
kill thee.
LUKE 13:32 And he said unto them, Go ye, and tell that fox,
Behold, I cast out devils, and I do cures to day and to morrow,
and the third {day} I shall be perfected.
LUKE 13:33 Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and
the {day} following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out
of Jerusalem.
LUKE 13:34 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets,
and stonest them that are sent unto thee; how often would I have
gathered thy children together, as a hen {doth gather} her brood
under {her} wings, and ye would not!
LUKE 13:35 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: and
verily I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until {the time} come
when ye shall say, Blessed {is} he that cometh in the name of the
Lord.
LUKE 14:1 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.
LUKE 14:2 And, behold, there was a certain man before him which
had the dropsy.
LUKE 14:3 And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and
Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day?
LUKE 14:4 And they held their peace. And he took {him}, and
healed him, and let him go;
LUKE 14:5 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?
LUKE 14:6 And they could not answer him again to these things.
LUKE 14:7 And he put forth a parable to those which were bidden,
when he marked how they chose out the chief rooms; saying unto
them.
LUKE 14:8 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;
LUKE 14:9 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.
LUKE 14:10 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.
LUKE 14:11 For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he
that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
LUKE 14:12 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.
LUKE 14:13 But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the
maimed, the lame, the blind:
LUKE 14:14 And thou shalt be blessed; for they cannot recompense
thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the
just.
LUKE 14:15 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.
LUKE 14:16 Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great
supper, and bade many:
LUKE 14:17 And sent his servant at supper time to say to them
that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.
LUKE 14:18 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.
LUKE 14:19 And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and
I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.
LUKE 14:20 And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore
I cannot come.
LUKE 14:21 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.
LUKE 14:22 And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast
commanded, and yet there is room.
LUKE 14:23 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.
LUKE 14:24 For I say unto you, That none of those men which were
bidden shall taste of my supper.
LUKE 14:25 And there went great multitudes with him: and he
turned, and said unto them,
LUKE 14:26 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.
LUKE 14:27 And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after
me, cannot be my disciple.
LUKE 14:28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth
not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have
{sufficient} to finish {it}?
LUKE 14:29 Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is
not able to finish {it}, all that behold {it} begin to mock him,
LUKE 14:30 Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to
finish.
LUKE 14:31 Or what king, going to make war against another king,
sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with
ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty
thousand?
LUKE 14:32 Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he
sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace.
LUKE 14:33 So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not
all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.
LUKE 14:34 Salt {is} good: but if the salt have lost his savour,
wherewith shall it be seasoned?
LUKE 14:35 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.
LUKE 15:1 Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners
for to hear him.
LUKE 15:2 And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This
man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.
LUKE 15:3 And he spake this parable unto them, saying,
LUKE 15:4 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?
LUKE 15:5 And when he hath found {it}, he layeth {it} on his
shoulders, rejoicing.
LUKE 15:6 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.
LUKE 15:7 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.
LUKE 15:8 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}?
LUKE 15:9 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.
LUKE 15:10 Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence
of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
LUKE 15:11 And he said, A certain man had two sons:
LUKE 15:12 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.
LUKE 15:13 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.
LUKE 15:14 And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine
in that land; and he began to be in want.
LUKE 15:15 And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that
country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
LUKE 15:16 And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks
that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him.
LUKE 15:17 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!
LUKE 15:18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto
him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,
LUKE 15:19 And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as
one of thy hired servants.
LUKE 15:20 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, and kissed him.
LUKE 15:21 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.
LUKE 15:22 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:
LUKE 15:23 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill {it}; and
let us eat, and be merry:
LUKE 15:24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was
lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
LUKE 15:25 Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and
drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing.
LUKE 15:26 And he called one of the servants, and asked what
these things meant.
LUKE 15:27 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.
LUKE 15:28 And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came
his father out, and intreated him.
LUKE 15:29 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:
LUKE 15:30 But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath
devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the
fatted calf.
LUKE 15:31 And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and
all that I have is thine.
LUKE 15:32 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.
LUKE 16:1 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.
LUKE 16:2 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.
LUKE 16:3 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.
LUKE 16:4 I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of
the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
LUKE 16:5 So he called every one of his lord's debtors {unto
him}, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?
LUKE 16:6 And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said
unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.
LUKE 16:7 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.
LUKE 16:8 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.
LUKE 16:9 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.
LUKE 16:10 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.
LUKE 16:11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the
unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true
{riches}?
LUKE 16:12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is
another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?
LUKE 16:13 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.
LUKE 16:14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all
these things: and they derided him.
LUKE 16:15 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.
LUKE 16:16 The law and the prophets {were} until John: since that
time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into
it.
LUKE 16:17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than
one tittle of the law to fail.
LUKE 16:18 Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another,
committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away
from {her} husband committeth adultery.
LUKE 16:19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in
purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
LUKE 16:20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which
was laid at his gate, full of sores,
LUKE 16:21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from
the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his
sores.
LUKE 16:22 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;
LUKE 16:23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments,
and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
LUKE 16:24 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.
LUKE 16:25 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.
LUKE 16:26 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.
LUKE 16:27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou
wouldest send him to my father's house:
LUKE 16:28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto
them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
LUKE 16:29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the
prophets; let them hear them.
LUKE 16:30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto
them from the dead, they will repent.
LUKE 16:31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the
prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from
the dead.
LUKE 17:1 Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but
that offences will come: but woe {unto him}, through whom they
come!
LUKE 17:2 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.
LUKE 17:3 Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass
against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.
LUKE 17:4 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.
LUKE 17:5 And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our
faith.
LUKE 17:6 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.
LUKE 17:7 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?
LUKE 17:8 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?
LUKE 17:9 Doth he thank that servant because he did the things
that were commanded him? I trow not.
LUKE 17:10 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.
LUKE 17:11 And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he
passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
LUKE 17:12 And as he entered into a certain village, there met
him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:
LUKE 17:13 And they lifted up {their} voices, and said, Jesus,
Master, have mercy on us.
LUKE 17:14 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.
LUKE 17:15 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed,
turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,
LUKE 17:16 And fell down on {his} face at his feet, giving him
thanks: and he was a Samaritan.
LUKE 17:17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed?
but where {are} the nine?
LUKE 17:18 There are not found that returned to give glory to
God, save this stranger.
LUKE 17:19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith
hath made thee whole.
LUKE 17:20 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:
LUKE 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for,
behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
LUKE 17:22 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}.
LUKE 17:23 And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go
not after {them}, nor follow {them}.
LUKE 17:24 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.
LUKE 17:25 But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected
of this generation.
LUKE 17:26 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also
in the days of the Son of man.
LUKE 17:27 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.
LUKE 17:28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did
eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they
builded;
LUKE 17:29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained
fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed {them} all.
LUKE 17:30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man
is revealed.
LUKE 17:31 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.
LUKE 17:32 Remember Lot's wife.
LUKE 17:33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it;
and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
LUKE 17:34 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.
LUKE 17:35 Two {women} shall be grinding together; the one shall
be taken, and the other left.
LUKE 17:36 Two {men} shall be in the field; the one shall be
taken, and the other left.
LUKE 17:37 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.
LUKE 18:1 And he spake a parable unto them {to this end}, that
men ought always to pray, and not to faint;
LUKE 18:2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not
God, neither regarded man:
LUKE 18:3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto
him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.
LUKE 18:4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said
within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;
LUKE 18:5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her,
lest by her continual coming she weary me.
LUKE 18:6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
LUKE 18:7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day
and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
LUKE 18:8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily.
Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on
the earth?
LUKE 18:9 And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in
themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:
LUKE 18:10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a
Pharisee, and the other a publican.
LUKE 18:11 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.
LUKE 18:12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I
possess.
LUKE 18:13 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.
LUKE 18:14 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.
LUKE 18:15 And they brought unto him also infants, that he would
touch them: but when {his} disciples saw {it}, they rebuked them.
LUKE 18:16 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.
LUKE 18:17 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the
kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.
LUKE 18:18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master,
what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
LUKE 18:19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good?
none {is} good, save one, {that is}, God.
LUKE 18:20 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.
LUKE 18:21 And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.
LUKE 18:22 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.
LUKE 18:23 And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he
was very rich.
LUKE 18:24 And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he
said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the
kingdom of God!
LUKE 18:25 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.
LUKE 18:26 And they that heard {it} said, Who then can be saved?
LUKE 18:27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men
are possible with God.
LUKE 18:28 Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed
thee.
LUKE 18:29 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,
LUKE 18:30 Who shall not receive manifold more in this present
time, and in the world to come life everlasting.
LUKE 18:31 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.
LUKE 18:32 For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall
be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:
LUKE 18:33 And they shall scourge {him}, and put him to death:
and the third day he shall rise again.
LUKE 18:34 And they understood none of these things: and this
saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were
spoken.
LUKE 18:35 And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto
Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging:
LUKE 18:36 And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it
meant.
LUKE 18:37 And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.
LUKE 18:38 And he cried, saying, Jesus, {thou} Son of David, have
mercy on me.
LUKE 18:39 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.
LUKE 18:40 And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto
him: and when he was come near, he asked him,
LUKE 18:41 Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And
he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.
LUKE 18:42 And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith
hath saved thee.
LUKE 18:43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed
him, Glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw {it}, gave
praise unto God.
LUKE 19:1 And {Jesus} entered and passed through Jericho.
LUKE 19:2 And, behold, {there was} a man named Zacchaeus, which
was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
LUKE 19:3 And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not
for the press, because he was little of stature.
LUKE 19:4 And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree
to see him: for he was to pass that {way}.
LUKE 19:5 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.
LUKE 19:6 And he made haste, and came down, and received him
joyfully.
LUKE 19:7 And when they saw {it}, they all murmured, saying, That
he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.
LUKE 19:8 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.
LUKE 19:9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to
this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
LUKE 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that
which was lost.
LUKE 19:11 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.
LUKE 19:12 He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far
country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
LUKE 19:13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten
pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
LUKE 19:14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after
him, saying, We will not have this {man} to reign over us.
LUKE 19:15 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.
LUKE 19:16 Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath
gained ten pounds.
LUKE 19:17 And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because
thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority
over ten cities.
LUKE 19:18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath
gained five pounds.
LUKE 19:19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five
cities.
LUKE 19:20 And another came, saying, Lord, behold, {here is} thy
pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:
LUKE 19:21 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.
LUKE 19:22 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:
LUKE 19:23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank,
that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
LUKE 19:24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the
pound, and give {it} to him that hath ten pounds.
LUKE 19:25 (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)
LUKE 19:26 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.
LUKE 19:27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should
reign over them, bring hither, and slay {them} before me.
LUKE 19:28 And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending
up to Jerusalem.
LUKE 19:29 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,
LUKE 19:30 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}.
LUKE 19:31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose {him}? thus
shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.
LUKE 19:32 And they that were sent went their way, and found even
as he had said unto them.
LUKE 19:33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof
said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?
LUKE 19:34 And they said, The Lord hath need of him.
LUKE 19:35 And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their
garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.
LUKE 19:36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
LUKE 19:37 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;
LUKE 19:38 Saying, Blessed {be} the King that cometh in the name
of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
LUKE 19:39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude
said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
LUKE 19:40 And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that,
if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately
cry out.
LUKE 19:41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and
wept over it,
LUKE 19:42 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.
LUKE 19:43 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,
LUKE 19:44 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.
LUKE 19:45 And he went into the temple, and began to cast out
them that sold therein, and them that bought;
LUKE 19:46 Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house
of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.
LUKE 19:47 And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief
priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to
destroy him,
LUKE 19:48 And could not find what they might do: for all the
people were very attentive to hear him.
LUKE 20:1 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,
LUKE 20:2 And spake unto him, saying, Tell us, by what authority
doest thou these things? or who is he that gave thee this
authority?
LUKE 20:3 And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask you
one thing; and answer me:
LUKE 20:4 The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?
LUKE 20:5 And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall
say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed ye him not?
LUKE 20:6 But and if we say, Of men; all the people will stone
us: for they be persuaded that John was a prophet.
LUKE 20:7 And they answered, that they could not tell whence {it
was}.
LUKE 20:8 And Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you by what
authority I do these things.
LUKE 20:9 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.
LUKE 20:10 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.
LUKE 20:11 And again he sent another servant: and they beat him
also, and entreated {him} shamefully, and sent {him} away empty.
LUKE 20:12 And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also,
and cast {him} out.
LUKE 20:13 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.
LUKE 20:14 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.
LUKE 20:15 So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed
{him}. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto
them?
LUKE 20:16 He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall
give the vineyard to others. And when they heard {it}, they said,
God forbid.
LUKE 20:17 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?
LUKE 20:18 Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken;
but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
LUKE 20:19 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.
LUKE 20:20 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.
LUKE 20:21 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:
LUKE 20:22 Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or
no?
LUKE 20:23 But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them,
Why tempt ye me?
LUKE 20:24 Shew me a penny. Whose image and superscription hath
it? They answered and said, Caesar's.
LUKE 20:25 And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar
the things which be Caesar's, and unto God the things which be
God's.
LUKE 20:26 And they could not take hold of his words before the
people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.
LUKE 20:27 Then came to {him} certain of the Sadducees, which
deny that there is any resurrection; and they asked him,
LUKE 20:28 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.
LUKE 20:29 There were therefore seven brethren: and the first
took a wife, and died without children.
LUKE 20:30 And the second took her to wife, and he died
childless.
LUKE 20:31 And the third took her; and in like manner the seven
also: and they left no children, and died.
LUKE 20:32 Last of all the woman died also.
LUKE 20:33 Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is
she? for seven had her to wife.
LUKE 20:34 And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of
this world marry, and are given in marriage:
LUKE 20:35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain
that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry,
nor are given in marriage:
LUKE 20:36 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.
LUKE 20:37 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.
LUKE 20:38 For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living:
for all live unto him.
LUKE 20:39 Then certain of the scribes answering said, Master,
thou hast well said.
LUKE 20:40 And after that they durst not ask him any {question at
all}.
LUKE 20:41 And he said unto them, How say they that Christ is
David's son?
LUKE 20:42 And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The
Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
LUKE 20:43 Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
LUKE 20:44 David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he then his
son?
LUKE 20:45 Then in the audience of all the people he said unto
his disciples,
LUKE 20:46 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;
LUKE 20:47 Which devour widows' houses, and for a shew make long
prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.
LUKE 21:1 And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their
gifts into the treasury.
LUKE 21:2 And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither
two mites.
LUKE 21:3 And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor
widow hath cast in more than they all:
LUKE 21:4 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.
LUKE 21:5 And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned
with goodly stones and gifts, he said,
LUKE 21:6 {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.
LUKE 21:7 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?
LUKE 21:8 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.
LUKE 21:9 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.
LUKE 21:10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against
nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
LUKE 21:11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and
famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs
shall there be from heaven.
LUKE 21:12 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.
LUKE 21:13 And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
LUKE 21:14 Settle {it} therefore in your hearts, not to meditate
before what ye shall answer:
LUKE 21:15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your
adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
LUKE 21:16 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.
LUKE 21:17 And ye shall be hated of all {men} for my name's sake.
LUKE 21:18 But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
LUKE 21:19 In your patience possess ye your souls.
LUKE 21:20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies,
then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
LUKE 21:21 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.
LUKE 21:22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things
which are written may be fulfilled.
LUKE 21:23 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.
LUKE 21:24 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.
LUKE 21:25 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;
LUKE 21:26 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.
LUKE 21:27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a
cloud with power and great glory.
LUKE 21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look
up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
LUKE 21:29 And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree,
and all the trees;
LUKE 21:30 When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own
selves that summer is now nigh at hand.
LUKE 21:31 So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass,
know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
LUKE 21:32 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass
away, till all be fulfilled.
LUKE 21:33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall
not pass away.
LUKE 21:34 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.
LUKE 21:35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on
the face of the whole earth.
LUKE 21:36 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.
LUKE 21:37 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.
LUKE 21:38 And all the people came early in the morning to him in
the temple, for to hear him.
LUKE 22:1 Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is
called the Passover.
LUKE 22:2 And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might
kill him; for they feared the people.
LUKE 22:3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being
of the number of the twelve.
LUKE 22:4 And he went his way, and communed with the chief
priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.
LUKE 22:5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.
LUKE 22:6 And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him
unto them in the absence of the multitude.
LUKE 22:7 Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the
passover must be killed.
LUKE 22:8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us
the passover, that we may eat.
LUKE 22:9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we
prepare?
LUKE 22:10 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.
LUKE 22:11 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?
LUKE 22:12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished:
there make ready.
LUKE 22:13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and
they made ready the passover.
LUKE 22:14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the
twelve apostles with him.
LUKE 22:15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to
eat this passover with you before I suffer:
LUKE 22:16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof,
until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
LUKE 22:17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take
this, and divide {it} among yourselves:
LUKE 22:18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of
the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.
LUKE 22:19 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.
LUKE 22:20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup
{is} the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
LUKE 22:21 But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me {is}
with me on the table.
LUKE 22:22 And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined:
but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!
LUKE 22:23 And they began to inquire among themselves, which of
them it was that should do this thing.
LUKE 22:24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them
should be accounted the greatest.
LUKE 22:25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles
exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority
upon them are called benefactors.
LUKE 22:26 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.
LUKE 22:27 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.
LUKE 22:28 Ye are they which have continued with me in my
temptations.
LUKE 22:29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath
appointed unto me;
LUKE 22:30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom,
and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
LUKE 22:31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath
desired {to have} you, that he may sift {you} as wheat:
LUKE 22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not:
and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
LUKE 22:33 And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with
thee, both into prison, and to death.
LUKE 22:34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not
crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou
knowest me.
LUKE 22:35 And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse,
and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said,
Nothing.
LUKE 22:36 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.
LUKE 22:37 For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet
be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the
transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.
LUKE 22:38 And they said, Lord, behold, here {are} two swords.
And he said unto them, It is enough.
LUKE 22:39 And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the
mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.
LUKE 22:40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray
that ye enter not into temptation.
LUKE 22:41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast,
and kneeled down, and prayed,
LUKE 22:42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup
from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.
LUKE 22:43 And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven,
strengthening him.
LUKE 22:44 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.
LUKE 22:45 And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his
disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,
LUKE 22:46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest
ye enter into temptation.
LUKE 22:47 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.
LUKE 22:48 But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son
of man with a kiss?
LUKE 22:49 When they which were about him saw what would follow,
they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
LUKE 22:50 And one of them smote the servant of the high priest,
and cut off his right ear.
LUKE 22:51 And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And
he touched his ear, and healed him.
LUKE 22:52 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?
LUKE 22:53 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.
LUKE 22:54 Then took they him, and led {him}, and brought him
into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off.
LUKE 22:55 And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the
hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.
LUKE 22:56 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.
LUKE 22:57 And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
LUKE 22:58 And after a little while another saw him, and said,
Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.
LUKE 22:59 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.
LUKE 22:60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And
immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.
LUKE 22:61 And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter
remembered the word of the Lord, how he said unto him, Before the
cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
LUKE 22:62 And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.
LUKE 22:63 And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote
{him}.
LUKE 22:64 And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on
the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote
thee?
LUKE 22:65 And many other things blasphemously spake they against
him.
LUKE 22:66 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,
LUKE 22:67 Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them,
If I tell you, ye will not believe:
LUKE 22:68 And if I also ask {you}, ye will not answer me, nor
let {me} go.
LUKE 22:69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand
of the power of God.
LUKE 22:70 Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And
he said unto them, Ye say that I am.
LUKE 22:71 And they said, What need we any further witness? for
we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.
LUKE 23:1 And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto
Pilate.
LUKE 23:2 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.
LUKE 23:3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the
Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest {it}.
LUKE 23:4 Then said Pilate to the chief priests and {to} the
people, I find no fault in this man.
LUKE 23:5 And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirreth up
the people, teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee
to this place.
LUKE 23:6 When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man
were a Galilaean.
LUKE 23:7 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.
LUKE 23:8 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.
LUKE 23:9 Then he questioned with him in many words; but he
answered him nothing.
LUKE 23:10 And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently
accused him.
LUKE 23:11 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.
LUKE 23:12 And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends
together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.
LUKE 23:13 And Pilate, when he had called together the chief
priests and the rulers and the people,
LUKE 23:14 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:
LUKE 23:15 No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo,
nothing worthy of death is done unto him.
LUKE 23:16 I will therefore chastise him, and release {him}.
LUKE 23:17 (For of necessity he must release one unto them at the
feast.)
LUKE 23:18 And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this
{man}, and release unto us Barabbas:
LUKE 23:19 (Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for
murder, was cast into prison.)
LUKE 23:20 Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spake
again to them.
LUKE 23:21 But they cried, saying, Crucify {him}, crucify him.
LUKE 23:22 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.
LUKE 23:23 And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that
he might be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief
priests prevailed.
LUKE 23:24 And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they
required.
LUKE 23:25 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.
LUKE 23:26 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.
LUKE 23:27 And there followed him a great company of people, and
of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.
LUKE 23:28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of
Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your
children.
LUKE 23:29 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.
LUKE 23:30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on
us; and to the hills, Cover us.
LUKE 23:31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what
shall be done in the dry?
LUKE 23:32 And there were also two other, malefactors, led with
him to be put to death.
LUKE 23:33 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.
LUKE 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know
not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.
LUKE 23:35 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.
LUKE 23:36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and
offering him vinegar,
LUKE 23:37 And saying, If thou be the king of the Jews, save
thyself.
LUKE 23:38 And a superscription also was written over him in
letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE
JEWS.
LUKE 23:39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on
him, saying, If thou be Christ, save thyself and us.
LUKE 23:40 But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Dost not
thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
LUKE 23:41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of
our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.
LUKE 23:42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou
comest into thy kingdom.
LUKE 23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To
day shalt thou be with me in paradise.
LUKE 23:44 And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a
darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.
LUKE 23:45 And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple
was rent in the midst.
LUKE 23:46 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.
LUKE 23:47 Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified
God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.
LUKE 23:48 And all the people that came together to that sight,
beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and
returned.
LUKE 23:49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed
him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.
LUKE 23:50 And, behold, {there was} a man named Joseph, a
counsellor; {and he was} a good man, and a just:
LUKE 23:51 (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.
LUKE 23:52 This {man} went unto Pilate, and begged the body of
Jesus.
LUKE 23:53 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.
LUKE 23:54 And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew
on.
LUKE 23:55 And the women also, which came with him from Galilee,
followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how his body was
laid.
LUKE 23:56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments;
and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.
LUKE 24:1 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.
LUKE 24:2 And they found the stone rolled away from the
sepulchre.
LUKE 24:3 And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord
Jesus.
LUKE 24:4 And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed
thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
LUKE 24:5 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?
LUKE 24:6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake
unto you when he was yet in Galilee,
LUKE 24:7 Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands
of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
LUKE 24:8 And they remembered his words,
LUKE 24:9 And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these
things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.
LUKE 24:10 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.
LUKE 24:11 And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they
believed them not.
LUKE 24:12 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.
LUKE 24:13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a
village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem {about}
threescore furlongs.
LUKE 24:14 And they talked together of all these things which had
happened.
LUKE 24:15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed
{together} and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with
them.
LUKE 24:16 But their eyes were holden that they should not know
him.
LUKE 24:17 And he said unto them, What manner of communications
{are} these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
LUKE 24:18 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?
LUKE 24:19 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:
LUKE 24:20 And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him
to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
LUKE 24:21 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.
LUKE 24:22 Yea, and certain women also of our company made us
astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
LUKE 24:23 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.
LUKE 24:24 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.
LUKE 24:25 Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to
believe all that the prophets have spoken:
LUKE 24:26 Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to
enter into his glory?
LUKE 24:27 And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he
expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning
himself.
LUKE 24:28 And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they
went: and he made as though he would have gone further.
LUKE 24:29 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.
LUKE 24:30 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he
took bread, and blessed {it}, and brake, and gave to them.
LUKE 24:31 And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he
vanished out of their sight.
LUKE 24:32 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?
LUKE 24:33 And they rose up the same hour, and returned to
Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that
were with them,
LUKE 24:34 Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to
Simon.
LUKE 24:35 And they told what things {were done} in the way, and
how he was known of them in breaking of bread.
LUKE 24:36 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the
midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace {be} unto you.
LUKE 24:37 But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed
that they had seen a spirit.
LUKE 24:38 And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do
thoughts arise in your hearts?
LUKE 24:39 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.
LUKE 24:40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them {his}
hands and {his} feet.
LUKE 24:41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered,
he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?
LUKE 24:42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an
honeycomb.
LUKE 24:43 And he took {it}, and did eat before them.
LUKE 24:44 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.
LUKE 24:45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might
understand the scriptures,
LUKE 24:46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it
behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third
day:
LUKE 24:47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be
preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
LUKE 24:48 And ye are witnesses of these things.
LUKE 24:49 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.
LUKE 24:50 And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he
lifted up his hands, and blessed them.
LUKE 24:51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was
parted from them, and carried up into heaven.
LUKE 24:52 And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem
with great joy:
LUKE 24:53 And were continually in the temple, praising and
blessing God. Amen.
