    For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?

    Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him,

    Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish.

    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?

    Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and desireth conditions of peace.

    So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.
    markec
    Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I resemble it?

    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.
    markec
    And he turned him unto his disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see:

    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.

    And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
    markec
    markec
    He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?

    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.

    And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

    He am the Leaf that feeders on the fleshed ones, thems that calls themselves builders and wielded up a hammers against Him; Stands He then in the greens and festered Maw and speeds He out His judgments upon the weeps and writhing manfools!

    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.

    For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.
    markec
    markec
    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.
    markec
    The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.
    markec
    The glory of the Lord shall endure for ever: the Lord shall rejoice in his works.

    He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills, and they smoke.

    I will sing unto the Lord as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.

    And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.
    markec
    But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

    Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

    For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.
    markec
    markec
    Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:

    Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.

    And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

    Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’
    markec
    And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

    For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.

    For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
    markec
    markec
    Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

    Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

    We dismiss the skeptic, we speak of an “automatism of doubt,” while
    we never say of a believer that he has fallen into an “automatism of faith.”
    Yet faith is much more mechanical than doubt, which has the excuse of
    proceeding from surprise to surprise—inside perplexity, it is true.
    markec
    And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them, Hearken unto me every one of you, and understand:

    There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.

    If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

    And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
    markec
    markec
    And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive, that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him;

    Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?

    And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
    markec
    markec
    For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

    Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:

    All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.

    If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person's religion is worthless.
    markec
    For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness.

    For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

    O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.

    Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.

    And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.

    And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;

    For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

    And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Verily I say unto you, they have their reward.
    But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father who is in secret; and thy Father who seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
    markec
    Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

    Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

    Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

    But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
    markec
    markec
    And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;

    The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

    And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
    markec
    Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

    For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
    markec
    Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

    But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

    Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
    markec
    markec
    For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

    And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

    He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
    markec
    markec
    And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.

    He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.

    He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
    markec
    markec
    He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.

    And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.
    markec
    Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

    And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.

    And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

    But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
    markec
    markec
    Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,

    And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

    Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
    markec
    markec
    Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

    And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

    Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
    markec
    markec
    Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.
    markec
    For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off.

    The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.

    Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand.
    markec
    Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

    Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
    markec
    But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.

    Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.

    These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved for ever.

    For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.
    markec
    markec
    While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.

    For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

    For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.

    But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.
    markec
    Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:

    But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

    Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

    Do not err, my beloved brethren.

    Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

    Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
    markec
    See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:

    Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
    markec
    markec
    And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

    Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

    For our God is a consuming fire.

    The Lord is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works.

    The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.

    He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.

    The Lord preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy.
    markec
    I will praise thee with my whole heart: before the gods will I sing praise unto thee.

    I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

    In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.
    markec
    markec
    All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O Lord, when they hear the words of thy mouth.

    Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the Lord: for great is the glory of the Lord.

    Though the Lord be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.
    markec
    markec
    Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

    The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O Lord, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.
    markec
    Rejoice evermore.

    Pray without ceasing.

    In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
    markec
    If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

    Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

    For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

    When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
    markec
    markec
    Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:

    For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:

    In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.

    But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
    markec
    markec
    Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;

    And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:

    Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
    markec
    Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.

    Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.

    Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

    And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
