1ThenG1161 he calledG4779 hisG846 twelveG1427 disciplesG3101 togetherG4779, and gaveG1325 themG846 powerG1411 andG2532 authorityG1849 overG1909 allG3956 devilsG3588G1140, andG2532 to cureG2323 diseasesG3554. 2AndG2532 he sentG649 themG846 to preachG2784 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316, andG2532 to healG2390 the sickG770. 3AndG2532 he saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846, TakeG142 nothingG3367 forG1519 your journeyG3588G3598, neitherG3383 stavesG4464, norG3383 scripG4082, neitherG3383 breadG740, neitherG3383 moneyG694; neitherG3383 haveG2192 twoG1417 coatsG5509 apieceG303. 4AndG2532 whatsoeverG3739 houseG3614 ye enterG1525 intoG1519, thereG1563 abideG3306, andG2532 thenceG1564 departG1831. 5AndG2532 whosoeverG3745 willG1209 notG3361 receiveG1209 youG4771, when ye go outG1831 ofG575 thatG1565 cityG3588G4172, shake offG660 theG3588G2868 veryG2532 dustG3588G2868 fromG575 yourG4771 feetG3588G4228 forG1519 a testimonyG3142 againstG1909 themG846. 6AndG1161 they departedG1831, and wentG1330 throughG2596 the townsG3588G2968, preaching the gospelG2097, andG2532 healingG2323 every whereG3837. 7

NowG1161 HerodG2264 the tetrarchG3588G5076 heardG191 ofG1096 allG3956 that was doneG1096 byG5259 himG846: andG2532 he was perplexedG1280, becauseG1223 thatG3588 it was saidG3004 ofG5259 someG5100, thatG3754 JohnG2491 was risenG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498; 8AndG1161 ofG5259 someG5100, thatG3754 ElijahG2243 had appearedG5316; andG1161 of othersG243, thatG3754 oneG1520 of theG4396 oldG744 prophetsG4396 was risen againG450. 9AndG2532 HerodG3588G2264 saidG3004, JohnG2491 haveG607 IG1473 beheadedG607: butG1161 whoG5101 isG1510 thisG3778, ofG4012 whomG3739 IG1473 hearG191 such thingsG5108? AndG2532 he desiredG2212 to seeG3708 himG846.

10AndG2532 the apostlesG3588G652, when they were returnedG5290, toldG1334 himG846 all thatG3745 they had doneG4160. AndG2532 he tookG3880 themG846, and went asideG5298 privatelyG2398 intoG1519 aG5117 desertG2048 placeG5117 belonging to the cityG4172 calledG2564 BethsaidaG966. 11AndG1161 the peopleG3793, when they knewG1097 it, followedG190 himG846: andG2532 he receivedG1209 themG846, and spakeG2980 unto themG846 ofG4012 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316, andG2532 healedG2390 them that hadG2192 needG5532 of healingG2322. 12AndG1161 whenG756 the dayG2250 beganG756 to wear awayG2827, thenG1161 cameG4334 the twelveG1427, and saidG3004 unto himG846, SendG630 the multitudeG3588G3793 awayG630, thatG2443 they may goG565 intoG1519 the townsG2968 andG2532 countryG3588G68 round aboutG2945, and lodgeG2647, andG2532 getG2147 victualsG1979: forG3754 we areG1510 hereG5602 inG1722 a desertG2048 placeG5117. 13ButG1161 he saidG3004 untoG4314 themG846, GiveG1325 yeG4771 themG846 to eatG5315. AndG1161 they saidG3004, WeG1473 haveG1510 noG3756 moreG4119 butG2228 fiveG4002 loavesG740 andG2532 twoG1417 fishesG2486; exceptG1487 weG1473 should goG4198 and buyG59 meatG1033 forG1519 allG3956 thisG3778 peopleG3588G2992. 14ForG1063 they wereG1510 aboutG5616 five thousandG4000 menG435. AndG1161 he saidG3004 toG4314 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101, MakeG2625 themG846 sit downG2625 byG303 fiftiesG4004 in a companyG2828. 15AndG2532 they didG4160 soG3779, andG2532 madeG347 them allG537 sit downG347. 16ThenG1161 he tookG2983 theG740 fiveG4002 loavesG740 andG2532 theG2486 twoG1417 fishesG2486, and looking upG308 toG1519 heavenG3588G3772, he blessedG2127 themG846, andG2532 brakeG2622, andG2532 gaveG1325 to the disciplesG3588G3101 to set beforeG3908 the multitudeG3588G3793. 17AndG2532 they did eatG5315, andG2532 wereG5526 allG3956 filledG5526: andG2532 there was taken upG142 of fragmentsG2801 that remainedG4052 to themG846 twelveG1427 basketsG2894. 18

AndG2532 it came to passG1096, asG1722 heG846 wasG1510 aloneG2651 prayingG4336, his disciplesG3588G3101 were withG4895 himG846: andG2532 he askedG1905 themG846, sayingG3004, WhomG5101 sayG3004 the peopleG3588G3793 thatG5101 IG1473 amG1510? 19TheyG3588 answeringG611 saidG3004, JohnG2491 the BaptistG3588G910; butG1161 someG243 say, ElijahG2243; andG1161 othersG243 say, thatG3754 oneG5100 of theG4396 oldG744 prophetsG4396 is risen againG450. 20He saidG3004 unto themG846, ButG1161 whomG5101 sayG3004 yeG4771 thatG5101 IG1473 amG1510? PeterG3588G4074 answeringG611 saidG3004, The ChristG3588G5547 of GodG3588G2316. 21AndG1161 he straitly chargedG2008 themG846, and commandedG3853 them to tellG3004 no manG3367 that thingG3778; 22SayingG3004, The SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 mustG1163 sufferG3958 many thingsG4183, andG2532 be rejectedG593 ofG575 the eldersG4245 andG2532 chief priestsG749 andG2532 scribesG1122, andG2532 be slainG615, andG2532 be raisedG1453 theG2250 thirdG5154 dayG2250.

23AndG1161 he saidG3004 toG4314 them allG3956, IfG1487 anyG5100 man willG2309 comeG2064 afterG3694 meG1473, let him denyG533 himselfG1438, andG2532 take upG142 hisG846 crossG3588G4716 dailyG2250, andG2532 followG190 meG1473. 24ForG1063 whosoeverG3739 willG2309 saveG4982 hisG846 lifeG3588G5590 shall loseG622 itG846: butG1161 whosoeverG3739 will loseG622 hisG846 lifeG3588G5590 forG1752 myG1473 sakeG1752, the sameG3778 shall saveG4982 itG846. 25ForG1063 whatG5101 isG5623 a manG444 advantagedG5623, if he gainG2770 the wholeG3650 worldG3588G2889, andG1161 loseG622 himselfG1438, orG2228 be cast awayG2210? 26ForG1063 whosoeverG3739 shall be ashamedG1870 of meG1473 andG2532 ofG3056 myG1699 wordsG3056, of himG3778 shallG1870 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 be ashamedG1870, whenG3752 he shall comeG2064 inG1722 his ownG846 gloryG3588G1391, andG2532 in his Father’sG3588G3962, andG2532 of theG32 holyG40 angelsG32. 27ButG1161 I tellG3004 youG4771 of a truthG230, there beG1510 someG5100 standingG2476 hereG5602, whichG3739 shallG1089 notG3756 tasteG1089 of deathG2288, tillG2193 they seeG3708 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316.

28AndG1161 it came to passG1096 aboutG5616 anG2250 eightG3638 daysG2250 afterG3326 theseG3778 sayingsG3588G3056, he tookG3880 PeterG3588G4074 andG2532 JohnG2491 andG2532 JamesG2385, and went upG305 intoG1519 a mountainG3588G3735 to prayG4336. 29AndG2532 asG1722 heG846 prayedG4336, the fashionG3588G1491 ofG3588G4383 hisG846 countenanceG3588G4383 was alteredG2087, andG2532 hisG846 raimentG3588G2441 was whiteG3022 and glisteringG1823. 30AndG2532, beholdG3708, there talked withG4814 himG846 twoG1417 menG435, whichG3748 wereG1510 MosesG3475 andG2532 ElijahG2243: 31WhoG3739 appearedG3708 inG1722 gloryG1391, and spakeG3004 ofG3588G1841 hisG846 deceaseG3588G1841 whichG3739 he shouldG3195 accomplishG4137 atG1722 JerusalemG2419. 32ButG1161 PeterG3588G4074 andG2532 they that wereG1510 withG4862 himG846 were heavyG3588G916 with sleepG5258: andG1161 when they were awakeG1235, they sawG3708 hisG846 gloryG3588G1391, andG2532 theG3588G435 twoG1417 menG3588G435 that stood withG3588G4921 himG846. 33AndG2532 it came to passG1096, asG1722 theyG846 departedG1316 fromG575 himG846, PeterG3588G4074 saidG3004 untoG4314 JesusG3588G2424, MasterG1988, it isG1510 goodG2570 for usG1473 to beG1510 hereG5602: andG2532 let us makeG4160 threeG5140 tabernaclesG4633; oneG1520 for theeG4771, andG2532 oneG1520 for MosesG3475, andG2532 oneG1520 for ElijahG2243: notG3361 knowingG1492 whatG3739 he saidG3004. 34WhileG1161 heG846 thusG3778 spakeG3004, there cameG1096 a cloudG3507, andG2532 overshadowedG1982 themG846: andG1161 they fearedG5399 asG1722 theyG1565 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the cloudG3588G3507. 35AndG2532 there cameG1096 a voiceG5456 outG1537 of the cloudG3588G3507, sayingG3004, ThisG3778 isG1510 myG1473 belovedG27 SonG3588G5207: hearG191 himG846. 36AndG2532 whenG1722 the voiceG3588G5456 was pastG1096, JesusG3588G2424 was foundG2147 aloneG3441. AndG2532 theyG846 keptG4601 it closeG4601, andG2532 toldG518 no manG3762 inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG3588G2250 anyG3762 of those things whichG3739 they had seenG3708. 37

AndG1161 it came to pass, thatG1096 onG1722 theG2250 nextG1836 dayG2250, whenG2718 theyG846 were come downG2718 fromG575 the hillG3588G3735, muchG4183 peopleG3793 metG4876 himG846. 38AndG2532, beholdG3708, a manG435 ofG575 the companyG3588G3793 cried outG310, sayingG3004, MasterG1320, I beseechG1189 theeG4771, lookG1914 uponG1909 myG1473 sonG3588G5207: forG3754 he isG1510 mineG1473 only childG3439. 39AndG2532, loG3708, a spiritG4151 takethG2983 himG846, andG2532 heG2896 suddenlyG1810 crieth outG2896; andG2532 it tearethG4682 himG846 thatG3326 he foameth againG876, andG2532 bruisingG4937 himG846 hardlyG3425 departethG672 fromG575 himG846. 40AndG2532 I besoughtG1189 thyG4771 disciplesG3588G3101 toG2443 castG1544 himG846 outG1544; andG2532 they couldG1410 notG3756. 41AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 answeringG611 saidG3004, OG5599 faithlessG571 andG2532 perverseG1294 generationG1074, howG2193 longG4219 shall I beG1510 withG4314 youG4771, andG2532 sufferG430 youG4771? BringG4317 thyG4771 sonG3588G5207 hitherG5602. 42And asG1161 heG846 wasG4334 yetG2089 a comingG4334, the devilG3588G1140 threwG4486 himG846 downG4486, andG2532 tareG4952 him. AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 rebukedG2008 theG3588G4151 uncleanG169 spiritG3588G4151, andG2532 healedG2390 the childG3588G3816, andG2532 deliveredG591 himG846 againG591 toG3588G3962 hisG846 fatherG3588G3962.

43AndG1161 they wereG1605 allG3956 amazedG1605 atG1909 the mighty powerG3588G3168 of GodG3588G2316. ButG1161 while they wonderedG2296 every oneG3956 atG1909 all thingsG3956 whichG3739 JesusG3588G2424 didG4160, he saidG3004 untoG4314 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101, 44LetG5087 theseG3778 sayingsG3588G3056 sink downG5087 intoG1519 yourG4771 earsG3588G3775: forG1063 the SonG5207 of manG3588G444 shallG3195 be deliveredG3860 intoG1519 the handsG5495 of menG444. 45ButG1161 they understood notG50 thisG3778 sayingG3588G4487, andG2532 it wasG1510 hidG3871 fromG575 themG846, thatG2443 they perceivedG143 itG846 notG3361: andG2532 they fearedG5399 to askG2065 himG846 ofG4012 thatG3778 sayingG3588G4487. 46

ThenG1161 there aroseG1525 a reasoningG1261 amongG1722 themG846, whichG5101 of themG846 should beG1510 greatestG3173. 47AndG1161 JesusG2424, perceivingG3708 the thoughtG3588G1261 ofG3588G2588 theirG846 heartG3588G2588, tookG1949 a childG3813, and setG2476 himG846 byG3844 himG1438, 48AndG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, WhosoeverG3739G1437 shall receiveG1209 thisG3778 childG3588G3813 inG1909 myG1473 nameG3588G3686 receivethG1209 meG1473: andG2532 whosoeverG3739G1437 shall receiveG1209 meG1473 receivethG1209 him that sentG3588G649 meG1473: forG1063 he that isG5225 leastG3588G3398 amongG1722 youG4771 allG3956, the sameG3778 shall beG1510 greatG3173.

49AndG1161 JohnG3588G2491 answeredG611 and saidG3004, MasterG1988, we sawG3708 oneG5100 casting outG1544 devilsG3588G1140 inG1909 thyG4771 nameG3588G3686; andG2532 we forbadG2967 himG846, becauseG3754 he followethG190 notG3756 withG3326 usG1473. 50AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 untoG4314 himG846, ForbidG2967 him notG3361: forG1063 heG1510 thatG3739 isG1510 notG3756 againstG2596 usG1473 isG1510 forG5228 usG1473. 51

AndG1161 it came to passG1096, whenG1722 the timeG3588G2250 was comeG4845 thatG3588G354 heG846 should be received upG3588G354, heG846 stedfastly setG4741 hisG846 faceG3588G4383 to goG4198 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, 52AndG2532 sentG649 messengersG32 beforeG4253 hisG846 faceG4383: andG2532 they wentG4198, and enteredG1525 intoG1519 a villageG2968 of the SamaritansG4541, toG5620 make readyG2090 for himG846. 53AndG2532 they didG1209 notG3756 receiveG1209 himG846, becauseG3754 hisG846 faceG3588G4383 wasG1510 as though he would goG4198 toG1519 JerusalemG2419. 54AndG1161 whenG3708 hisG846 disciplesG3588G3101 JamesG2385 andG2532 JohnG2491 sawG3708 this, they saidG3004, LordG2962, wilt thouG2309 that we commandG3004 fireG4442 to come downG2597 fromG575 heavenG3588G3772, andG2532 consumeG355 themG846, evenG2532 asG5613 ElijahG2243 didG4160? 55ButG1161 he turnedG4762, and rebukedG2008 themG846, andG2532 saidG3004, Ye knowG1492 notG3756 what mannerG3634 of spiritG4151 yeG4771 areG1510 ofG4151. 56ForG1063 the SonG5207 of manG3588G444 isG2064 notG3756 comeG2064 to destroyG622 men’sG444 livesG5590, butG235 to saveG4982 them. AndG2532 they wentG4198 toG1519 anotherG2087 villageG2968.

57AndG1161 it came to pass, thatG1096, asG4198 theyG846 wentG4198 inG1722 the wayG3588G3598, a certainG5100 man saidG3004 untoG4314 himG846, LordG2962, I will followG190 theeG4771 whithersoeverG3699 thou goestG565. 58AndG2532 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto himG846, FoxesG3588G258 haveG2192 holesG5454, andG2532 birdsG3588G4071 of the airG3588G3772 have nestsG2682; butG1161 the SonG5207 of manG3588G444 hathG2192 notG3756 whereG4226 to layG2827 his headG3588G2776. 59AndG1161 he saidG3004 untoG4314 anotherG2087, FollowG190 meG1473. ButG1161 he saidG3004, LordG2962, sufferG2010 meG1473 firstG4412 to goG565 and buryG2290 myG1473 fatherG3588G3962. 60JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 unto himG846, LetG863 the deadG3498 buryG2290 theirG1438 deadG3498: butG1161 goG565 thouG4771 and preachG1229 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316. 61AndG1161 anotherG2087 alsoG2532 saidG3004, LordG2962, I will followG190 theeG4771; butG1161 letG2010 meG1473 firstG4412 goG2010 bidG657 themG3588 farewellG657, which areG3588 at homeG1519 atG3588G3624 myG1473 houseG3588G3624. 62AndG1161 JesusG3588G2424 saidG3004 untoG4314 himG846, No manG3762, having putG1911 hisG846 handG3588G5495 toG1909 the ploughG723, andG2532 lookingG991 backG3694, isG1510 fitG2111 forG1519 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316.
