009:001

And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee

009:002

And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth

009:003

And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts

009:004

For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk

009:005

But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house

009:006

And he arose, and departed to his house

009:007

But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men

009:008

And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him

009:009

And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples

009:010

And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners

009:011

But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick

009:012

But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance

009:013

Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not

009:014

And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast

009:015

No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse

009:016

Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved

009:017

While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live

009:018

And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples

009:019

And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment

009:020

For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole

009:021

But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour

009:022

And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise

009:023

He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn

009:024

But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose

009:025

And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land

009:026

And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou son of David, have mercy on us

009:027

And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord

009:028

Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you

009:029

And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it

009:030

But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country

009:031

As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil

009:032

And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel

009:033

But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devils

009:034

And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people

009:035

But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd

009:036

Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few

009:037

Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest
