СКАЧАТЬ we perish. ^8:26And he said to them, Why are you afraid, men of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the lake, and there was a great calm. ^8:27And the men wondered, saying, What kind of a man is this, that the winds and the lake obey him?

      5 ^8:28And when he had come to the other side, into the country of the Gadarenes, two demoniacs met him, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no man could pass that way. ^8:29And behold they cried, saying, What have you to do with us, Son of God? Have you come hither before the time to torment us? ^8:30And there was far off from them a herd of many swine feeding. ^8:31And, the demons besought him, saying, If you cast us out, send us into the herd of swine. ^8:32And he said to them, Go. And going out, they went away into the herd of swine, and, behold, the whole herd rushed down a precipice into the lake, and died in the waters; ^8:33and those who fed them fled, and going away into the city reported all things, and the events relating to the demoniacs. ^8:34And behold all the city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw him they besought him to depart from their bounds.

      6 ^9:1And entering a ship, he crossed over, and came to his own city; ^9:2and behold they brought him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And Jesus seeing their faith said to the paralytic, Son, be of good courage; your sins are forgiven. ^9:3And behold some of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemes. ^9:4And Jesus observing their thoughts, said, Why do you think evil in your hearts? ^9:5For in what respect is it easier to say, Your sins are forgiven, than to say, Arise and walk? ^9:6But that you may know that the Son of man has power on the earth to forgive sins, then he said to the paralytic, Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house. ^9:7And he arose and departed to his house. ^9:8And when the multitudes saw it they were afraid, and glorified God who had given such power to men.

      7 ^9:9And Jesus departing thence saw a man sitting at the custom-house, called Matthew; and he said to him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him. ^9:10And he was reclining in the house, and behold, many publicans and sinners came and reclined with Jesus and his disciples. ^9:11And when the Pharisees saw them they said to his disciples, Why does your teacher eat with publicans and sinners? ^9:12And hearing it he said, The well need not a physician, but the sick. ^9:13Go and learn what this means: I wish for mercy and not a sacrifice; for I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.

      8 ^9:14Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast much, but your disciples fast not? ^9:15And Jesus said to them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and then they shalt fast. ^9:16But no one puts a piece of unfilled cloth on an old garment; for it takes away its fullness from the garment, and the rent is made worse. ^9:17Neither do they put new wine into old bottles; otherwise the bottles break, and the wine is poured out and the bottles destroyed; but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.

      9 ^9:18While he was saying these words to them, behold a ruler came and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is now dead, but come and put your hand on her and she shall live. ^9:19And Jesus arose and followed him, and his disciples. ^9:20And behold a woman having a hemorrhage of twelve years approached him from behind, and touched the fringe of his garment; ^9:21for she said within herself, If I can only touch his garment I shall be cured. ^9:22And Jesus turning around and seeing her, said, Daughter, be of good courage, your faith has cured you. And the woman was cured from that hour.

      10 ^9:23And Jesus coming into the house of the ruler, and seeing the musicians and the multitude making a tumultuous noise, ^9:24said, Go away; for the girl is not dead, but asleep. And they derided him. ^9:25But when the multitude were removed he went in and took her hand, and the girl arose. ^9:26And the report went out into all that land.

      11 ^9:27And as Jesus was departing thence two blind men followed him, crying and saying, Have mercy on us, Son of David! ^9:28And when he had gone into the house the blind men came to him, and Jesus said to them, Do you believe that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord. ^9:29Then he touched their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it to you; ^9:30and their eyes were opened. And Jesus charged them strictly, saying, See that no one knows it. ^9:31But they went out and made him known in all that land.

      12 ^9:32And when they had gone away, behold, the people brought to him a man, a dumb demoniac. ^9:33And the demon being cast out, the dumb spoke; and the multitudes wondered, saying, It was never so seen in Israel. ^9:34But the Pharisees said, He casts out demons by the ruler of the demons.

      13 ^9:35And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the good news of the kingdom, and curing every disease, and every infirmity. ^9:36And seeing the multitudes he had compassion on them because they were faint and scattered, like sheep without a shepherd. ^9:37Then he said to his disciples, The harvest indeed is great, but the laborers few. ^9:38Pray, therefore, the Lord of the harvest to thrust laborers into his harvest.

      1 ^10:1AND calling his twelve disciples, he gave them power over impure spirits to cast them out, and to cure every disease and every infirmity. ^10:2And the names of the twelve apostles are these; First, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James, the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; ^10:3Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James, the son of Alpheus, and Lebbeus, called Thaddeus; ^10:4Simon, the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him. ^10:5These twelve Jesus sent out and charged them, saying; Go not into a way of gentiles, and enter not into a city of Samaritans, ^10:6but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel; ^10:7and as you go, preach, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is at hand. ^10:8Cure the sick, cleanse lepers, cast out demons; you have received gratuitously, gratuitously give. ^10:9Take not gold, nor silver, nor copper for your purses, ^10:10nor a provision sack for the way, nor two coats, nor shoes, nor staves; for the laborer is worthy of his support; ^10:11and into whatever city or village you enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and there remain till you leave. ^10:12And when you go into a house, salute it; ^10:13and if the house is worthy, your blessing shall come upon it; but if the house is not worthy, your blessing shall return to you. ^10:14And if any one does not receive you, nor hear your words, when you go out of that house or that city, shake off the dust of your feet. ^10:15I tell you truly, it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in a day of judgment, than for that city.

      2 ^10:16Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves; be therefore wise as serpents and harmless as doves. ^10:17But beware of men; for they will deliver you to Sanhedrims, and scourge you in their synagogues, ^10:18and you shall be brought before governors, and kings, for my sake, for a testimony to them and the nations. ^10:19But when they have delivered you up be not anxious how you shall speak, or what you shall say, for it shall be given you in that hour what to say; ^10:20for it is not you that speak, but the Spirit of your Father that speaks in you. ^10:21And a brother shall deliver a brother to death, and a father a son; and children shall rise up against their parents and put them to death; ^10:22and you shall be hated by all СКАЧАТЬ
