12 Jesus was in one of the cities and a man was there who had leprosy, a bad skin disease. When he saw Jesus, he bowed his face to the ground. He begged Jesus saying, Sir, I know you can heal me if you want to.
13 Jesus put out his hand and touched the man. He said, I want you to be healed. Right away the man was free from leprosy.
27 I tell you the truth. Some people are standing here who will not die before they see the kingdom of God.
28 About eight days after saying these things, Jesus went up on a hill to talk with God. He took Peter, John, and James with him.
29 As he was talking with God, he was changed. His face was different. His clothes became very white and shining.
30 And then two men were talking with Jesus. They were Moses and Elijah.
31 Light was shining from them. They talked about his leaving this world. That would happen when he was in Jerusalem.
38 They came to the rulers house. Jesus saw that there was trouble. People were crying and making much noise because the rulers daughter had died.
39 When he came into the house, he said to them, Why do you make so much noise and cry? The girl is not dead, but is sleeping.
40 They laughed at him. So he sent them all outside. Then he took the girls father and mother and the three disciples into the room where the girl was lying.
41 He took her hand and said, Talitha cumi! That means, Little girl, I tell you, get up!
42 The girl got up right away and walked around. She was twelve years old. The people were very much surprised.
32 The disciples said to him, Where can we get enough food in this lonely place to feed so many people?
33 Jesus said to them, How many loaves of bread have you? They said, We have seven, and a few small fish.
34 He told the people to sit down on the ground.
35 Then he took the seven loaves of bread and the fish. He thanked God for them. Then he broke the bread and gave it to the disciples. The disciples gave it to the people.
36 They all ate and had enough. They gathered seven baskets full of pieces that were left.
37 The number of people who ate was about four thousand men, besides some women and children.
38 Jesus sent the people away. Then he got in the boat and went to the country around Magadan.
27 When Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him. They called out, Son of David, help us!
28 When Jesus came into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus asked them, Do you believe that I can do this? They said, Yes, sir.
29 Then Jesus touched their eyes. He said, As you believed, so will it happen to you.
30 Then they were able to see. Jesus said to them, Take care, do not tell anyone about this.
31 But they went away and told everybody in that part of the country about him.
11 You say, "Tell your father or your mother that what you were going to give to them is Corban." (That means a gift to God.)
12 So you stop him from doing anything for his father and mother.
13 You make Gods law to mean nothing so that you can keep your own laws. You do many other things like that also.
14 Then Jesus called the people to him again. He said, Listen to me, all of you, and understand what I say.
15 What goes into a persons mouth does not make him dirty. But what comes out of a persons mouth makes him dirty.
3 Four men brought a sick man to Jesus. The man could not move his arms or legs.
4 But they could not get in the house where Jesus was, because there were so many people. So they went up on the roof. They made a hole in the roof. Then they let down the mat with the sick man on it.
5 Jesus saw that they believed he would be healed. So he said to the sick man, Son, the wrong things you have done are forgiven.
6 Some of the scribes were sitting there.
7 They were thinking, Why does this man say such wrong things against God? He is not giving God respect! Who can forgive the wrong things people do? No one but God can do that.
8 Jesus understood in his spirit what the scribes were thinking. He said right away, Why do you think these wrong things in your hearts?
9 Which is easier, to say to the sick man, "The wrong things you have done are forgiven," or to say, "Get up. Take up your mat and walk"?
10 I want you to know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive the wrong things people do. So he said to the sick man,
11 I tell you, get up! Take up your mat and go home.
12 Right away the man stood up in front of them. He took up his mat and went home. They were all very much surprised, and they praised God. They said, We have never seen anything like this before.
2 A man who had leprosy a bad skin disease came and kneeled in front of Jesus and worshipped him. He said to Jesus, Sir, I know you can heal me if you want to.
3 Jesus put out his hand and touched him. He said, I want to. Be healed. Right away his leprosy was healed.
4 Jesus said to him, Do not tell anyone about this. But go and let the priest look at you. Moses gave a law about the sacrifice you must give when you are healed. Give it, to prove to people you are healed.
15 In the evening the disciples came to him. They said, This is a lonely place. And the time is late. Send these people away so they can go to the farms and villages to buy food for themselves.
16 Jesus said to them, They need not go away. You give them food to eat.
17 They said, We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish.
18 Jesus said, Bring them here to me.
19 Then Jesus told the people to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves of bread and the two fish. He looked up to heaven and thanked God for them. Then he broke the bread and gave it to the disciples. The disciples gave it to the people.
20 They all ate and had enough. They gathered twelve baskets full of pieces that were left.
21 The number of men who ate was about five thousand, besides some women and children.
30 Simons wifes mother was sick and was lying down. She had a fever. Right away they told Jesus about her.
31 Jesus went to her. He took her hand and helped her up. The fever left her right away, and she began to do things to help them.
1 Two days later there was a wedding in the town of Cana in the country of Galilee. Jesus mother was there.
2 Jesus and his disciples were also asked to the wedding.
3 The people needed more wine. Then Jesus mother said to him, They have no wine.
4 Jesus said, Woman, why are you telling me about it? It is not yet the time for me to do something.
5 His mother said to the servants, Do all that he tells you to do.
6 Six very large water pots made of stone were standing there. The pots were there because the Jews had a certain law about washing themselves.
7 Jesus said, Fill the pots with water. So they filled them to the very top.
8 Jesus said, Now take some out. Carry it to the one in charge of the feast. They did what he said.
9 The man in charge of the feast tasted the water that was now turned into wine. He did not know where it came from, but the servants who drew the water knew. When the man had tasted it, he called the man who was being married.
10 He said, Other people give the good wine at the beginning of the feast. When people have had all they want, then they give the wine which is not so good. But you have kept the good wine until now.
11 This was the first big work that Jesus did. It was in Cana in Galilee. He showed that he was great. And his disciples believed in him.
24 When Johns messengers had gone away, Jesus began to talk to the people about John. He said, What did you go out into the desert to see? Did you go out to see a tall grass moving in the wind?
25 What did you go out to see? A man wearing fine clothes? People who wear fine clothes and have nice things live in kings houses.
26 What did you go out to see? A prophet of God? Yes, I tell you, and he is much more than a prophet.
27 He is the one the holy writings tell about: "See, I send my messenger ahead of you. He will make the way ready for you."
28 I tell you, no one has ever been born who is greater than John. And yet, the smallest one in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
29 All the people and the tax collectors praised God when they heard that. They had been baptised by John.
30 But the Pharisees and teachers of the law would not follow Gods way and they were not baptised by John.
1 Jesus finished saying all these things for the people to hear. Then he went to Capernaum.
2 An army officer had a servant whom he loved. The servant was sick and almost dying.
3 The officer heard of Jesus. So he sent some of the leaders of the Jews to him. He asked him to come and heal his servant.
4 They came to Jesus and begged him very much. They said, He is a good man. You should come and do this for him.
5 He loves our people and he built the meeting house for us.
6 Jesus went with them. When he came near the house, the officer sent some friends to meet him and to say, Sir, do not trouble yourself to come further. I am not good enough to have you come into my house.
7 And I did not think I was good enough to come to you. Just say the word and my servant will be healed.
8 I myself am a man who takes orders, and I have soldiers who take orders from me. I say to one, "Go," and he goes. I say to another, "Come," and he comes. I say to my servant, "Do this," and he does it.
9 Jesus was surprised when he heard this. He turned to the people who followed him. He said, I tell you, I have not found a Jew who believes as this man does.
10 The men who had been sent to Jesus went back into the house. They found that the servant who had been sick was well.
22 One of the rulers of the meeting house came to him. His name was Jairus. When he saw Jesus, he kneeled down before him.
23 He said, My little daughter is dying. I beg you, come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.
24 So Jesus went with Jairus. Many people went with Jesus and pushed against him.
22 Then they came to Bethsaida. Some people brought a blind man to Jesus. They begged him to touch the man.
23 Jesus took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. He spat on his eyes and put his hands on him. Then he asked, Do you see anything?
24 The man looked up and said, I see men, but they look like trees that are walking.
25 Jesus put his hands on him again. He made him look up. Then he was healed and could see everybody clearly.
26 Jesus sent the man away to his home. Do not go into the village and do not tell it to anyone, he said.
24 Right away a woman heard of him. She came and kneeled down before him. Her daughter had a bad spirit in her.
25 The woman was not a Jew and had been born in the country of Phoenicia in Syria. She begged Jesus to drive the bad spirit out of her daughter.
26 But Jesus said to her, We will give the children all they want to eat first. It is not right to take the childrens food and give it to the little dogs.
27 She answered, Yes, Sir. But even the little dogs under the table eat food that falls from the childrens table.
28 Jesus said to her, Because you have said this, you may go home. The bad spirit has gone out of your daughter.
29 When she came to her house, she found that the bad spirit had left. Her daughter was lying on the bed.
30 Jesus went away from Tyre and Sidon and came to the sea of Galilee. He passed through the country of the Ten Towns.
31 The people brought a man to Jesus who could not hear and could not talk well. They begged Jesus to put his hand on him.
32 So Jesus took him away alone. He put his fingers in the mans ears. Then he spat and touched the mans tongue.
33 He looked up to heaven and sighed. He said, Ephphatha! That means, Be opened!
34 Right away the mans ears were opened and his tongue was made free. He could talk well.
35 Jesus said, Do not tell anyone. But the more he told them not to tell, the more they told it everywhere.
36 The people were very much surprised. They said, He has done everything well. The people who could not hear can hear. The people who could not talk can talk.

6 On another Sabbath day, Jesus went into the meeting house and taught. A man was there whose right hand was thin and weak.
7 The scribes and Pharisees watched Jesus to see if he would heal the man on the Sabbath day. They wanted to find something wrong about Jesus.
8 But Jesus knew what they were thinking. He spoke to the man whose hand was thin and weak. He said, Come and stand here in front The man stood up.
9 Jesus said to them, I ask you, is it right to do good things on the Sabbath day, or to do wrong things? Is it right to heal people so that they will live, or to let them die?
10 He looked around at them all. Then he said to the man, Hold out your hand. The man did so and it was made well like the other hand.
43 A woman among them had a sickness for twelve years. She was bleeding all the time. She had given all her money to the doctors, but no one had been able to heal her.
44 She came behind Jesus and touched his clothes. The bleeding stopped right away.
45 Jesus said, Who touched me? Everyone said, Not I! Peter said, Master, the people are all around you and push you.
46 But Jesus said, Someone touched me. I know that power to heal went out from me.
47 The woman saw that he knew about her. So she came trembling and bowed down in front of him. She told him in front of all the people why she had touched him. She told him that she had been healed right away.
48 Jesus said to her, Daughter, you were healed because you believed. Go and do not be troubled.
10 There was a man whose hand was thin and weak. The people asked Jesus, Is it right to heal a man on the Sabbath day? They wanted to find something wrong about Jesus.
11 Jesus said to them, If one of you had a sheep and it fell into a hole on the Sabbath day, would you not take hold of it and pull it out?
12 A man is worth much more than a sheep. So it is right to do good things on the Sabbath day.
13 Then he said to the man, Hold out your hand. The man held out his hand and it was made well like the other hand.
1 The next time the disciples saw Jesus was at the Sea of Tiberias Galilee . This is how Jesus showed himself to them.
2 Some of the disciples were in one place. They were Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples of Jesus.
3 Simon Peter said to the others, I am going fishing. The others said, We are going with you also. They went out in a boat right away. That night they caught nothing.
4 Early in the morning, Jesus was standing there by the sea. The disciples did not know it was Jesus.
5 He said to them, My children, did you catch any fish? They answered, No.
6 He said to them, Throw out your net on the right side of the boat, then you will catch some. They threw out their net and caught many fish, so that they were not able to bring in the net.
7 That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, It is the Lord! As soon as Simon Peter heard it was the Lord, he put on his coat and his belt. He had taken off some clothes to work. Then he jumped into the water.
8 The other disciples came in a small boat. They were pulling the net. It was full of fish. They were not far from the land, only about a hundred yards.
9 When they came to the land, they saw a small fire. Fish and some bread lay on the fire.
10 Jesus said to them, Bring some of the fish which you have just caught.
11 Simon Peter went to the boat. He pulled the net to land. It was full of big fish. There were a hundred and fifty three fish. But even with so many fish the net did not break.
12 In the morning when they were on the way out of Bethany, Jesus was hungry.
13 He saw a fig tree a little way off with leaves on it. So he went to see if it had figs. He came to the tree. There was no fruit on it, only leaves. It was not the time for figs.
14 Jesus said to the tree, No one will ever eat a fig from you again! His disciples heard what he said.
22 Then the people brought a man to Jesus. The man had a bad spirit in him. He was blind and could not talk. Jesus healed him. Then the man could talk and see.
14 They came to the people. A man came and kneeled in front of Jesus.
15 He said, Sir, help my son. A bad spirit is in him and he has much trouble. Often he falls into the fire, and often he falls into the water.
16 I brought him to your disciples, but they could not heal him.
17 Jesus said, You people today do not believe. You have turned away from God. How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.
18 Jesus talked to the bad spirit and he came out of the boy. The boy was healed.
5 When Jesus came to the town of Capernaum, a Roman army officer came to ask him for help.
6 He said, Sir, one of my servants is in bed at my house. He cannot move and has much pain.
7 Jesus said, I will come and heal him.
8 The officer said, Sir, I am not good enough to have you come into my house. Just say the word and my servant will be healed.
9 I myself am a man who takes orders, and I have soldiers who take orders from me. I say to one, "Go," and he goes. I say to another one, "Come," and he comes. I say to my servant, "Do this," and he does it.
10 Jesus was surprised when he heard this. He said to the people who followed him, I tell you the truth. I have not found any Jew who believes as this man does.
11 I tell you, many people will come from the east and from the west. They will sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.
12 But those who were born in the kingdom will be put into the darkness outside. There they will cry and make noises with their teeth.
13 Jesus said to the officer, Go home. What you have believed, will be done. At that very same time the officers servant was healed.
1 They came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarene people.
2 There were graves in that place. As soon as Jesus came out of the boat, a man came from among the graves to meet him. The man had a bad spirit in him.
3 The man lived among the graves. No person could tie him, not even with chains.
4 Many times people had tied him with strong ropes and chains. But he broke the chains and tore the ropes into many pieces. No person was strong enough to hold the man.
5 All the time he stayed in the hills where the graves were. He screamed day and night and cut himself with sharp stones.
6 Jesus was still far from him, but when he saw Jesus he ran to him. He kneeled down in front of Jesus and worshipped him.
7 He called out loud, Jesus, Son of the High God, what are you going to do to me? I beg you not to hurt me.
8 He said this because Jesus had said to him, You bad spirit, come out of the man.
9 Jesus asked, What is your name? He answered, My name is An Army, for we are many.
10 He begged Jesus saying, Do not send us out of the country.
11 Many pigs were feeding on the hill there.
12 The bad spirits begged Jesus saying, Send us to the pigs so that we can go into them.
13 Jesus let them go right away. The bad spirits came out of the man and went into the pigs. The pigs ran fast down the steep hill into the sea. They died in the water. The number of pigs was about two thousand.
14 Then the men who cared for the pigs ran away. They told the people in the city and all around the country about it. The people went out to see what had happened.
35 When he came near the city of Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the road. He was begging for money.
36 He heard many people passing by. He asked, Why are so many people passing here?
37 They told him, Jesus of Nazareth is passing this way.
38 Then he shouted, Jesus, son of David! Help me!
39 The people in front said, Be quiet! But he shouted louder and said, Son of David! Help me!
40 Jesus stopped and said, Bring him here. When the man came close, Jesus asked him, What do you want me to do for you?
41 The man said, Sir, I want to see.
42 Jesus said, You can see now. You are healed because you believed.
43 Right then he was able to see. He went with Jesus and he praised God. All the people saw it and they all praised God too.
37 A very strong wind began to blow. Water came in the boat. It began to fill up with water.
38 Jesus was in the back end of the boat, sleeping with his head on a pillow. The disciples woke him up. Master, they shouted. We will die! Do you not care?
39 Then Jesus got up. He said to the wind and the sea, Stop! The wind stopped. Then all was quiet.
40 Then he said to the disciples, Why do you fear? Do you not believe in God?
41 The disciples were surprised. They said to each other, What kind of man is this? Even the wind and the sea obey him.
40 A man who was sick with leprosy a bad skin disease came to him. He kneeled down and begged Jesus saying, I know you can heal me if you want to.
41 Jesus was very sorry for him. He put out his hand and touched him. He said, I want to. Be healed.
42 As soon as he said this, the disease left the man and he was healed.
1 A man named Lazarus was sick. He lived at Bethany, the home of Mary and her sister Martha.
2 Mary was the same woman that put oil on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair. It was her brother Lazarus who was sick.
3 So the sisters sent someone to tell Jesus. They said, Lord, the one whom you love is sick.
4 Jesus heard the message. He said, The man is sick, but he will not die from it. But this will show people that God is great, and his Son also.
5 Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
6 When he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was for two days more.
7 After that, he said to his disciples, Let us go back again to Judea.
8 They said, Master, it is not long since the Jews wanted to kill you with stones. Are you going back there again?
9 Jesus answered them, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If a person walks in the daylight, then he will not fall. He can see by the light that is in the world.
10 But if a person walks at night, he will fall because there is no light for him to see.
11 After he said this, he said also, Our friend Lazarus is sleeping, but I am going to wake him up.
12 His disciples said, Lord, if he is sleeping then he will get well again.
13 But Jesus meant that Lazarus had died. The disciples thought that Lazarus was sleeping to have a rest.
14 Then Jesus told them plainly. He said, Lazarus is dead.
22 One day Jesus got into a boat with his disciples. He said to them, Let us cross over to the other side of the sea. So they started out.
23 While they were going, Jesus was sleeping. A bad storm came on the sea. Water was coming into the boat, and they were in trouble.
24 The disciples came to Jesus and woke him. They shouted, Master! Master! We will die! Jesus woke and said to the wind and the water, Stop! They stopped. Then all was quiet
25 He said to the disciples, Why do you not believe God? They were afraid and surprised. They said to each other, What kind of man is this? He tells the wind and the sea what to do and they obey him.
6 Jesus knew what he himself would do, but he said this to see what Philip would do.
7 Philip answered him, It would take nearly a years wages to buy enough food for them, even if each one gets only a little.
8 One of Jesus disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, talked to Jesus.
9 He said, A boy here has five loaves of bread and two small fish. But what can that little bit of food do for so many people?
10 Jesus said, Tell the people to sit down. Much grass was there. The number of men who sat down was about five thousand.
11 Then Jesus took the bread and thanked God for it. He gave it to the disciples and they divided it among those who were sitting. He did the same thing with the fish. The people had all they wanted.
12 When they had eaten enough, he said to his disciples, Gather up all the pieces that are left so that nothing will be lost.
13 They gathered all the pieces of the five loaves. Twelve baskets full were left over after all the people had eaten enough.
17 One of the people said, Teacher, I brought my son to you. A bad spirit is in him so he cannot talk.
18 Wherever it takes hold of him, it throws him around. It makes him foam at his mouth. It makes him make noises with his teeth. He is getting weak and thin. I asked your disciples to drive the bad spirit out, but they could not do it.
19 Jesus said, You people today do not believe. How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.
20 So they brought the boy to him. As soon as the bad spirit saw him, he threw the boy around. The boy fell on the ground and rolled around. Foam was coming from his mouth.
21 Jesus asked the father, How long has he had this spirit? He answered, Since he was a child.
22 Often it has thrown him in the fire and in the water. It has tried to kill him. If you can do anything for him, show us that you share our suffering by helping us.
23 Jesus said to him, You say, "If you can." Anything can be done for the person who believes.
24 Right away the father of the child, with tears in his eyes, said loudly, I do believe! Help me to believe more!
25 Jesus saw many people come running together. He talked to the bad spirit: You bad spirit who stops the boy from hearing and talking! I tell you, come out of him and do not go into him again!
26 The bad spirit screamed and threw the boy around. Then it came out of him and left him like a dead person. Many of the people even said, The boy is dead.
27 But Jesus took his hand and helped him to get up. The boy stood up.
18 While Jesus was telling them these things, a ruler came to him. He bowed down in front of Jesus to worship him and said, My daughter has just died. But if you will come and put your hand on her, she will live.
19 Jesus got up and went with the ruler. His disciples went too.
25 A woman among them had a sickness for twelve years. She was bleeding all the time.
26 Many doctors tried to heal her. She spent all the money she had to pay them. She was not better, but was getting worse.
27 When she heard of Jesus, she came among the people behind him. Then she reached out and touched his clothes.
28 She said to herself, If only I touch his clothes, I will be well.
29 The bleeding stopped right away. She could feel that she was healed of her trouble.
21 Jesus left that place and went to the country of Tyre and Sidon. 22A woman of the people of Canaan was in that country. She called out, Sir, you are the Son of David. Help me! My daughter is being troubled very much by a bad spirit.
22 Jesus did not answer her. His disciples came to him and said, Send her away. She keeps calling after us.
23 He said, I was sent only to the people of Israel. They are like lost sheep.
24 But the woman came and bowed down in front of Jesus and worshipped him. She said, Sir, help me.
25 He said, It is not right to take the childrens food and give it to the little dogs.
26 She answered, Yes, sir. But even the little dogs eat the food that falls from the tables of their masters.
27 Then Jesus answered, Woman, you believe very much. The thing you want me to do will be done. And her daughter was healed at that very time.
28 Jesus went on from there along the Sea of Galilee. He went up on a hill and sat down there.
35 When it was late in the day, his disciples came to him. They said, This is a lonely place and the time is late.
36 Send these people away to farms and villages to buy food for themselves. They have nothing to eat.
37 Jesus said, You give them food to eat. They said, Shall we go and buy a lot of bread and give them to eat?
38 He said, Go and see how much bread you have. When they knew, they told him, We have five loaves of bread and two fish.
39 Jesus told the disciples to make all the people sit on the green grass in groups.
40 The people sat down in groups. Some groups were a hundred people and some were fifty people.
41 Jesus took the five loaves of bread and the two fish. He looked up to heaven and thanked God for them. Then he broke them in pieces. He gave them to the disciples to give to the people. Then he divided the two fish among them all.
42 They all ate and had enough.
43 Then they gathered twelve baskets full of pieces that were left.
44 The number of men who ate was about five thousand.
18 Some men brought a sick man on his bed. The man could not move his arms or legs. They tried to bring him in and put him in front of Jesus.
19 But they could not get in the house where Jesus was, because there were so many people. So they went up on the roof. Then through a hole in the roof they let down the bed with the sick man on it, until he was in front of Jesus.
20 Jesus saw that they believed he would be healed. So he said to him, Man, the wrong things you have done are forgiven.
21 The scribes and Pharisees began to talk about this. They said, Who is this man that is not giving respect to God? No one but God can forgive anyone for the wrong things they have done.
22 Jesus knew what they were thinking. He said, Why do you think these wrong things in your hearts?
23 Which is easier, to say, "The wrong things you have done are forgiven," or to say, "Get up and walk"?
24 I want you to know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive wrong things people have done. So he said to the sick man, I tell you, get up. Take up your bed and go home.
25 Right away the man stood up in front of them. He took up his bed and went home praising God.
50 One of them hit the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.
51 Jesus said, Just let me do this. And he touched the mans ear and healed him.
23 When Jesus came to the rulers house, he saw the music players and people making a noise.
24 He said to them, Go away. The girl is not dead, but sleeping. They laughed at him.
25 The people were told to go outside. When they were out, he went in and took the girls hand. The girl got up.
29 As Jesus and the disciples left the city of Jericho, many people followed him.
30 Two blind men were sitting by the road. They heard that Jesus was passing that way. So they shouted, Sir, you are the Son of David. Help us!
31 The people said to them, Be quiet! But they shouted louder, Sir, Son of David! Help us!
32 Jesus stopped and called the men to him. He asked, What do you want me to do for you?
33 They said, Sir, we want to see.
34 Jesus was very sorry for them as he shared in their suffering. He touched their eyes, and right then they were able to see. They went with him.
24 They came to Capernaum. There the men who were collecting the tax for the temple came to Peter. They asked him, Does not your teacher pay the tax for the temple?
25 Peter said, Yes, he does. When he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him about it first. He said, Simon, what do you think? From whom do kings on earth take taxes? Do they take them from their own people or from other people?
26 Peter said, From other people. Jesus said, Then the sons do not pay a tax.
27 But we must not make them think something wrong about us. So go to the sea. Throw a fish-hook into the water. Take the first fish you catch. Open its mouth and you will see a piece of money. Take it and pay them the tax for you and me.
27 As Jesus got out of the boat a man met him from the town. He had bad spirits in him. He had not worn clothes for a long time. He did not live in a house, but among the graves.
28 When he saw Jesus, he screamed loudly and bowed down in front of him. He called out loud, Jesus, Son of the Highest One! What do you want to do to me? I beg you, do not hurt me.
29 He said this because Jesus had told the bad spirit to come out of the man. Many times the spirit had taken hold of the man. People had guarded him. They had tied him with chains and strong ropes. But he broke the chains and ropes. The bad spirit drove him into the desert.
30 Jesus asked him, What is your name? He answered, My name is An Army. He said this because many bad spirits had gone into him.
31 The spirits begged Jesus not to send them away to the big hole that has no bottom.
32 Many pigs were feeding on the hill there. The spirits begged Jesus to let them go into the pigs. Jesus let them.
33 The spirits came out of the man and went into the pigs. They ran fast down the steep hill into the sea. They died in the water.
34 The men who cared for the pigs saw what happened. They ran and told it to the people in the town and in the country.
35 The people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus. They saw the man from whom the bad spirits had gone. He was sitting near the feet of Jesus. He had clothes on and was not crazy any more. The people were afraid.
20 The next morning they passed the fig tree again. They saw that it had died from the roots.
21 Peter remembered about it. He said, Look Master, you cursed the fig tree and it has died.
22 Jesus said, Believe in God.
23 I tell you the truth. Anyone may say to this hill, "Go and jump into the sea." He must not doubt in his heart, but he must believe that he will have the things he asks for and he will have them.
24 So I tell you, when you ask God for anything believe that you will get it and you will have it.
25 When you stand and talk with God, forgive others for the wrong things they have done to you. Then your Father in heaven will also forgive you for the wrong things you have done.
2 Some men brought a sick man to him. The man could not move his arms or legs. He was lying on a bed. Jesus saw that they believed he would be healed. So he said to the sick man, My son, be glad! The wrong things you have done are forgiven.
3 Some of the scribes were thinking, This man is not giving respect to God.
4 Jesus knew what they were thinking. He said, Why do you think these wrong things in your heart?
5 Which is easier, to say, "The wrong things you have done are forgiven," or to say, "Get up and walk"?
6 I want you to know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive wrong things people have done. So he said to the sick man, Get up. Make up your bed and go home.
7 The man got up and went home.
1 One Sabbath day Jesus went to eat at the house of a ruler. He was a ruler of the Pharisees. They were watching Jesus.
2 man stood in front of him. He was sick. His body was filled with water.
3 Jesus asked the teachers of Gods law and the Pharisees, Is it right to heal a person on the Sabbath day or not?
4 They did not answer. So he took the man and healed him. Then he sent him away.
19 They rowed the boat into the middle of the lake. Then they saw Jesus walking on the water. He came close to the boat. They were afraid.
20 But Jesus said to them, It is I. Do not fear.
21 Then they were glad to take him into the boat. Then at once the boat reached the land to which they were going.
11 A woman was there who had a spirit that had made her sick for eighteen years. She had to bend down all the time and could not stand up straight.
12 Jesus saw her and called her to come to him. Then he said, Woman, you are healed. You are not sick any longer.
13 Jesus put his hands on her, and right away she stood up straight. And she praised God.
31 Jesus asked, What will I say that the people of today are like? What are they like?
32 They are like children who sit in the market. They call to other children. They say, "We played music for you, but you did not dance. We cried, but you did not cry."
33 John the Baptizer came. He does not eat bread or drink wine. You say, "He has a bad spirit in him."
34 The Son of Man came. He eats and drinks. You say, "This man eats and drinks too much! He is a friend of tax collectors and bad people!"
35 A man is proved wise by what he has done.
36 One of the Pharisees asked Jesus to come and eat with him. So Jesus went into the Pharisees house and sat down to eat.
37 In that city was a bad woman. When she knew that Jesus was eating at the Pharisees house, she came and brought a bottle of oil. It was oil that smelled very sweet and cost much money.
38 One man among them called out, Teacher, I beg you, look at my son. He is my only child.
39 A bad spirit takes hold of him and he screams. It throws him around and makes him foam at his mouth. It beats him badly and does not want to leave him.
40 I begged your disciples to drive the bad spirit out, but they could not do it.
41 Jesus said, You people today do not believe. You have turned away from God. How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.
42 While he was coming, the bad spirit knocked him down and threw him around. Jesus told the spirit to stop. He healed the boy and gave him back to his father.
43 All the people were surprised to see that God has so much power. While the people were wondering about everything Jesus did, he talked to his disciples.
23 A man who had a bad spirit in him was in the meeting house at that time.
24 He called out, Jesus of Nazareth, what do you want to do to us? Have you come to kill us? I know who you are. You are the Holy One of God.
25 Jesus said to the spirit, Be quiet! Come out of him!
26 The bad spirit threw the man around. It called out loud and then it came out of the man.
46 Then they came to Jericho. As Jesus and his disciples left Jericho, many people followed him. A blind man named Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the road. He was begging for money.
47 He heard that Jesus of Nazareth was passing. So he shouted, Jesus, Son of David! Help me!
48 Many people said, Be quiet! But he shouted louder, Son of David! Help me!
49 Jesus stopped and said, Call him. They called the blind man and said to him, Be glad! Come, get up! He is calling you.
50 The man threw off his coat, jumped up, and went to Jesus.
51 Jesus said, What do you want me to do for you? The blind man said to him, Teacher, I want to see.
52 Jesus said, Go home. Because you believe in me, your faith has made you well. Right then he was able to see. He followed Jesus on the road.
18 In the morning he went back to the city. On the way he was hungry.
19 Along the road he saw a fig tree. He went to the tree. There was no fruit on it, only leaves. He said to the tree, No fruit will ever grow on you again! Right away the tree died.
20 The disciples saw it and were surprised. They said, So soon the fig tree has died!
21 Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth. Believe God. Do not doubt him. Then you can do what I did to this fig tree. But that is not all. You can even say to this hill, "Go and jump into the sea" and it will be done.
22 When you ask God for anything, believe that you will have it. Then you will have it.
1 After that, the Jews had a feast and Jesus went to Jerusalem.
2 In Jerusalem, near the Sheep Gate, there is a wide water hole. The Jews called this water hole Bethesda. It had five places with roofs for people to stand under.
3 Many sick people were lying on these places. Some of them were blind. Some were lame. Some were very thin and stiff so that they could not move by themselves. All of them were waiting for the water to move.
4 An angel came down into the water at a certain time and made it move. The first person who stepped into the water when it moved was healed of any sickness that he had.
5 A man was there who had been sick for thirty eight years.
6 Jesus saw the man lying there. He knew that he had been sick for a long time. He said to him, Do you want to be healed?
7 The sick man said to him, Sir, I have no man to put me into the water when it moves. While I am trying to get in, some other person comes and gets in before me.
8 Jesus said, Get up. Take up your bed and walk!
9 The man was healed right away. He took up his bed and walked. This happened on the Sabbath day.
1 Again at that time many, many people came together. They had nothing to eat. Jesus called his disciples. He said,
2 I share the suffering of the people. They have been with me for three days and they have nothing to eat.
3 If I send them home hungry, they will get weak and fall on the way. Some of them have come a long way.
4 His disciples answered, Where can anyone get enough food in this lonely place to feed so many people?
5 Jesus asked them, How many loaves of bread have you? They said, Seven.
6 He told the people to sit down on the ground. Then he took the seven loaves of bread and thanked God for them. Then he broke the bread and gave it to the disciples. They gave it to the people.
7 They had a few small fish. Jesus told the disciples to divide the fish among the people also.
8 The people ate and had enough. They gathered seven baskets full of pieces that were left.
9 The number of men who ate was about four thousand.
12 When it was late in the day, the twelve disciples came to him. They said, Send the people away so they can go to the towns and the farms to sleep and get something to eat. This is a lonely place.
13 But Jesus said to them, You give them food to eat. They said, All we have is five loaves of bread and two fish. Shall we go and buy food for all these people?
14 There were about five thousand men. He said to his disciples, Tell the people to sit down in groups of fifty.
15 They did what he said, and they made all the people sit down.
16 He took the five loaves of bread and the two fish. He looked up to heaven and thanked God for them. Then he broke the bread. He gave it to the disciples to give to the people.
17 They all ate and had enough. They picked up twelve baskets full of pieces that were left.
20 A woman had a sickness for twelve years. She was bleeding all the time. She came behind Jesus and touched his clothes.
21 She said to herself, If only I touch his clothes, I will be well.
22 Jesus turned around. He saw her and said, Daughter, be glad. You were healed because you believed. And right away the woman was healed.
48 He saw the disciples working hard rowing the boat. The wind was blowing the wrong way. When it was almost morning, Jesus came to the disciples. He was walking on the water. He was going to pass by them.
49 But when they saw him walking on the water, they thought it was a spirit. They shouted loudly.
50 They all saw him and were very much afraid. He spoke to them right away. He said, Be glad! It is I. Do not fear.
51 Then he got in the boat with them. The wind stopped. They were very much surprised and did not know what to say.
14 Jesus was driving a bad spirit out of a man who could not talk. When the spirit left him, the man could talk. The people were surprised.
11 Jesus was going on the road to Jerusalem. He went between the countries of Samaria and Galilee.
12 When he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy came to him. They stood far away.
13 And they called out, Jesus, Master, help us!
14 When Jesus saw them, he said to them, Go and let the priests look at you. While they were going, they were healed of the leprosy.
15 One of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back. He praised God with a loud voice.
16 He bowed down in front of Jesus and thanked him. He was a man from the country of Samaria.
17 Then Jesus asked, Were not ten people healed? Where are the other nine?
18 Is this stranger the only one who has come back to praise God?
19 Then he said to the man, Get up and go on your way. You were healed because you believed.
28 Jesus came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarene people. There were graves in that place. Two men came from among the graves to meet him. They had bad spirits in them. They were so bad and strong that people feared to pass that way.
29 They shouted, Jesus, Son of God, what do you want to do to us? Have you come here to punish us before it is our time?
30 Many pigs were eating in a place far from them.
31 The bad spirits begged Jesus, If you drive us out of these men, let us go into the pigs.
32 Jesus said, Go! The spirits came out of the men and went into the pigs. All the pigs ran fast down the steep hill into the sea. They died in the water.
33 The men who cared for the pigs ran to the town. They told everything and what had happened to the men who had the bad spirits.
34 All the people in the town came out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged him to go away out of their country
1 The people came close around Jesus to hear Gods word. He was standing by Lake Gennesaret the Sea of Galilee .
2 He saw two boats by the water. The fishermen were not in their boats. They were washing their nets.
3 Jesus got into one of the boats. It was Simons boat. Jesus asked him to put the boat out into the water a little way from the land. Then he sat down in the boat and taught the people.
4 When he stopped talking, he said to Simon, Put the boat out into deep water and let down your nets to catch some fish.
5 Simon answered, Master, we worked hard all night and did not catch anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.
6 When they did this, they caught many fish. Their nets were so full they were breaking.
7 They called their friends in the other boat to come and help them. They came. They filled both boats with so much fish, they began to go down.
8 When Simon Peter saw this, he kneeled down in front of Jesus. He said, Lord, leave me because I am a bad man!
9 He was very much surprised to see how many fish they had caught. All those who were with him were surprised too.
10 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, were helping Simon. They were surprised also. Jesus said to Simon, Do not fear. From now on your work will be to catch men.
11 They brought their boats to the land. Then they left everything and went with Jesus.
38 Jesus left the meeting house and went to Simons house. The mother of Simons wife was sick with a bad fever. They asked Jesus to help her.
39 He went and stood beside her. He told the fever to leave her. It left. She got up right away and began to do things for them.
22 One day Jesus got into a boat with his disciples. He said to them, Let us cross over to the other side of the sea. So they started out.
23 While they were going, Jesus was sleeping. A bad storm came on the sea. Water was coming into the boat, and they were in trouble.
24 The disciples came to Jesus and woke him. They shouted, Master! Master! We will die! Jesus woke and said to the wind and the water, Stop! They stopped. Then all was quiet
25 He said to the disciples, Why do you not believe God? They were afraid and surprised. They said to each other, What kind of man is this? He tells the wind and the sea what to do and they obey him.
26 They came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarene people. Their country is on the other side of the sea from Galilee.
1 Jesus went into the meeting house again. A man was there whose right hand was thin and weak.
2 The Pharisees watched Jesus to see if he would heal the man on the Sabbath day. They wanted to find something wrong about Jesus.
3 He spoke to the man whose hand was thin and weak. He said, Stand here.
4 Then he spoke to the Pharisees. He said, Is it right to do good things on the Sabbath day or to do wrong things? Is it right to heal people so they will live, or to let them die? But the Pharisees said nothing.
5 Jesus was angry as he looked at them. And he was sad that their hearts were so hard. Then he said to the man, Hold out your hand. The man did so, and it was made well like the other hand.
49 While he was still talking, a man came from the rulers house. He said, Your daughter has died. Do not trouble the Teacher any more.
50 Jesus heard it. He said, Do not fear. Only believe and she will be healed.
51 When Jesus came to the house, he did not let the people go in with him. The only people he let go in were Peter, John and James, and the girls father and mother.
52 All the people were crying and making a lot of noise because she had died. But he said, Do not cry. She is not dead, but sleeping.
53 They laughed at him because they knew she was dead.
54 He took her hand and called out, Little girl, get up.
55 Her life came back and she got up right away. He told them to give her something to eat.
56 Her parents were very much surprised. Jesus said, Do not tell anyone what has happened.
32 As they were leaving, people brought a man to Jesus. This man could not talk He had a bad spirit in him.
33 Jesus drove the bad spirit out of the man. Then he could talk. The people were very much surprised. They said, Nothing like this has ever been seen in the country of Israel.
25 When it was almost morning, Jesus came to them. He was walking on the water.
41 A man named Jairus came to him. He was a ruler in the meeting house. He bowed down in front of Jesus and begged him to come to his house.
42 He had only one daughter She was about twelve years old. And she was dying. Many people went with Jesus and pushed against him.
46 He heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, and he went to Jesus and said, I beg you, come and heal my son. He is dying.
47 Jesus said to him, If you do not see some signs and big works, then you will not believe.
48 The officer said, Sir, I beg you. Come right away before my son dies.
49 Jesus said, Go home. Your son will not die. The man believed what Jesus said and went home.
50 On the way, his servants met him. They said, Your son is living.
51 He asked, What time did he begin to get well? They said, Yesterday at one hour after midday the fever left him.
52 The father knew that was the time when Jesus said to him Your son will not die. So he and all his family believed in Jesus.
53 This was the second big work that Jesus did after he came back from Judea to Galilee.

23 Jesus got in the boat and his disciples got in with him.
24 A bad storm came on the sea. The waves were high. Water came into the boat. But Jesus was sleeping.
25 The disciples came to Jesus and woke him. Lord, save us! they shouted. We will die!
26 Jesus said to them, Why do you fear? You do not believe in God very much! Then Jesus got up. He said to the winds and the sea, Stop! Then all was quiet.
27 The disciples were surprised. They said What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the sea obey him.
32 Peter and the others were very sleepy. They woke up and saw the light shining from Jesus. And they saw the two men standing with him.
33 When the men were leaving Jesus, Peter said to him, Master, it is good for us to be here. Let us make three places here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah. Peter did not know what he was saying.
1 On his way out of the temple Jesus saw a man who had been born blind.
2 His disciples asked Jesus, Master, was this man born blind because of the wrong things he did, or was it the wrong things his parents did?
3 Jesus answered, It was not that he or his parents did any wrong thing. But it was so that people would see what God will do in him.
4 There is one who has sent me. I must do his work while it is still daylight. Night is coming. Then it will be too dark to work.
5 As long as I am in the world, I am the Light of the world.
6 When Jesus had said this, he spat on the ground. Then he put some of the wet dirt on the mans eyes.
7 And he said, Go. wash your eyes in that water hole called Siloam. (Siloam means Sent.) The man went and washed his eyes. After that, he was able to see.
