But while they wondered every to them twelve baskets. one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples, 18 And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples were with him; and he asked them, saying, Who say the people that I am? 19 They answering, said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others say, That one of the old prophets is risen again. 20 He said unto them, But who say ye that am? Peter answering, said, The Christ of God. 21 And he straitly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that thing, 44 Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men. 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. 46 Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest. 47 And Jesus perceiving the thought of their 22 Saying, The Son of man must suffer many heart, took a child, and set him by him, things, and be rejected of the elders, and chief 48 And said unto them, Whosoever shall repriests, and scribes, and be slain, and be raised ceive this child in my name, receiveth me; and the third day. whosoever shall receive me, receiveth him that 23 1 And he said to them all, If any man will sent me: for he that is least among you all, the come after me, let him deny himself, and take same shall be great. up his cross daily, and follow me. 24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it. 25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away? 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. 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. 49 And John answered and said, Master, we 28 T And it came to pass, about an eight days 30 And behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias: 31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem. 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. 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. 34 While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them and they feared as they entered into the cloud. 55 But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. 56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village. 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. 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. 59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. 60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God. 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. 35 And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him. 62. And Jesus said unto him, No man having 36 And when the voice was past, Jesus was put his hand to the ploughi, and looking back, is found alone. And they kept it close, and told fit for the kingdom of God. no man in those days any of those things which they had seen. CHAP. X. Seventy disciples sent forth. 37 11 And it came to pass, that on the next day, AFTER these things, the Lord appointed when they were come down from the hill, much people met him. 38 And behold, a man of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee look upon my son: for he is inine only child. other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city, and place, whither he himself would come. 2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are tew: pray 39 And lo, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he crieth out; and it teareth him that he foameth would send forth labourers into his harvest. again, and bruising him, hardly departeth from 3 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as him. lambs among wolves. 40 And I besought thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not. 4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way. 5 And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house. 41 And Jesus answering, said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall be with you, and suffer you?

And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. 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: 24 For I tell you, That many prophets and 6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come kings have desired to see those things which ye to me, and I have nothing to set before him? see, and have not seen them; and to hear those 7 And he from within shall answer and say, things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
