| Luke. | |
| CH. XI. 1-13. | |
| And it came to pass, that as he was
praying in a certain place, when he
ceased, one of his disciples said unto
him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John
also taught his disciples. | |
| 2 And he said unto them, When
ye pray, say, Our Father which art
in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be
done, as in heaven, so in earth. | |
| 3 Give us day by day our daily
bread. | |
| 4 And forgive us our sins; for
we also forgive every one that is
indebted to us. 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,[213] and say unto
him, Friend, lend me three loaves: | |
| 6 For a friend of mine in his journey
is come to me, and I have nothing
to set before him? | |
| 7 And he from within shall answer
and say, Trouble me not: the door
is now shut, and my children are
with me in bed; I cannot rise and
give thee. | |
| 8 I say unto you, Though he will
not rise and give him, because he is
his friend, yet because of his importunity
he will rise and give him as many
as he needeth. | |
| 9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it
shall be given you; seek, and ye
shall find; knock, and it shall be
opened unto you. | |
| 10 For every one that asketh receiveth;
and he that seeketh findeth;
and to him that knocketh, it shall be
opened. | |
| 11 If a son shall ask bread of any
of you that is a father, will he give
him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will
he for a fish give him a serpent? | |
| 12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will
he offer him a scorpion? | |
| 13 If ye then, being evil, know
how to give good gifts unto your
children, how much more shall your
heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit
to them that ask him? | |
| John. | |
| CH. IX. 1-41. CH. X. 1-21. | |
| And as Jesus passed by, he saw a
man which was blind from his birth. | |
| 2 And his disciples asked him,
saying, Master, who did sin, this
man, or his parents, that he was born
blind? | |
| 3 Jesus answered, Neither hath
this man sinned, nor his parents: but
that the works of God should be made
manifest in him. | |
| 4 I must work the works of him
that sent me, while it is day: the night
cometh, when no man can work. | |
| 5 As long as I am in the world, I
am the light of the world. | |
| 6 When he had thus spoken, he
spat on the ground, and made clay of
the spittle, and he anointed the eyes
of the blind man with the clay, | |
| 7 And said unto him, Go, wash in
the pool of Siloam, (which is by
interpretation, Sent.) He went his
way therefore, and washed, and came
seeing. | |
| 8 The neighbours therefore, and
they which before had seen him that
he was blind, said, Is not this he that
sat and begged? | |
| 9 Some said, This is he: others
said, He is like him: but he said, I
am he. | |
| 10 Therefore said they unto him,
How were thine eyes opened? | |
| 11 He answered and said, A man
that is called Jesus, made clay, and
anointed mine eyes, and said unto me,
Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash;
and I went and washed, and I received
sight. | |
| 12 Then said they unto him, Where
is he? He said, I know not. | |
| 13 They brought to the Pharisees
him that aforetime was blind. | |
| 14 And it was the sabbath-day when
Jesus made the clay, and opened his
eyes. | |
| 15 Then again the Pharisees also
asked him how he had received his
sight. He said unto them, He put
clay upon mine eyes, and I washed,
and do see. | |
| 16 Therefore said some of the
Pharisees, This man is not of God,
because he keepeth not the sabbath-day. Others said, How can a man
that is a sinner do such miracles?
And there was a division among
them. | |
| 17 They say unto the blind man
again, What sayest thou of him, that
he hath opened thine eyes? He said,
He is a prophet. | |
| 18 But the Jews did not believe
concerning him, that he had been
blind, and received his sight, until
they called the parents of him that
had received his sight. | |
| 19 And they asked them, saying,
Is this your son, who ye say was
born blind? How then doth he now
see? | |
| 20 His parents answered them and
said, We know that this is our son,
and that he was born blind: | |
| 21 But by what means he now
seeth, we know not; or who hath
opened his eyes, we know not: he is
of age; ask him: he shall speak for
himself. | |
| 22 These words spake his parents,
because they feared the Jews: for
the Jews had agreed already, that if
any man did confess that he was
Christ, he should be put out of the
synagogue. | |
| 23 Therefore said his parents, He
is of age; ask him. | |
| 24 Then again called they the man
that was blind, and said unto him,
Give God the praise: we know that
this man is a sinner. | |
| 25 He answered and said, Whether
he be a sinner or no, I know not:
one thing I know, that, whereas I
was blind, now I see. | |
| 26 Then said they to him again,
What did he to thee? how opened he
thine eyes? | |
| 27 He answered them, I have told
you already, and ye did not hear:
wherefore would ye hear it again?
will ye also be his disciples? | |
| 28 Then they reviled him, and said,
Thou art his disciple, but we are
Moses' disciples. | |
| 29 We know that God spake unto
Moses; as for this fellow, we know
not from whence he is. | |
| 30 The man answered and said unto
them, Why, herein is a marvellous
thing, that ye know not from whence
he is, and yet he hath opened mine
eyes. | |
| 31 Now we know that God heareth
not sinners; but if any man be a worshipper
of God, and doeth his will,
him he heareth. | |
| 32 Since the world began was it
not heard that any man opened the
eyes of one that was born blind. | |
| 33 If this man were not of God, he
could do nothing. | |
| 34 They answered and said unto
him, Thou wast altogether born in
sins, and dost thou teach us? And
they cast him out. | |
| 35 Jesus heard that they had cast
him out: and when he had found
him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe
on the Son of God? | |
| 36 He answered and said, Who
is he, Lord, that I might believe on
him? | |
| 37 And Jesus said unto him, Thou
hast both seen him, and it is he that
talketh with thee. | |
| 38 And he said, Lord, I believe.
And he worshipped him. | |
| 39 And Jesus said, For judgment
I am come into this world; that they
which see not might see; and that
they which see might be made blind. | |
| 40 And some of the Pharisees which
were with him heard these words, and
said unto him, Are we blind also? | |
| 41 Jesus said unto them, If ye were
blind, ye should have no sin: but now
ye say, We see; therefore your sin
remaineth. | |
| CH. X. | |
| Verily, verily, I say unto you,
He that entereth not by the door into
the sheepfold, but climbeth up some
other way, the same is a thief and a
robber. | |
| 2 But he that entereth in by the
door is the shepherd of the sheep. | |
| 3 To him the porter openeth; and
the sheep hear his voice: and he
calleth his own sheep by name, and
leadeth them out. | |
| 4 And when he putteth forth his
own sheep, he goeth before them, and
the sheep follow him: for they know
his voice. | |
| 5 And a stranger will they not follow,
but will flee from him: for they
know not the voice of strangers. | |
| 6 This parable spake Jesus unto
them: but they understood not what
things they were which he spake unto
them. | |
| 7 Then said Jesus unto them again,
Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am
the door of the sheep. | |
| 8 All that ever came before me are
thieves and robbers: but the sheep
did not hear them. | |
| 9 I am the door: by me if any man
enter in, he shall be saved, and shall
go in and out, and find pasture. | |
| 10 The thief cometh not, but for
to steal, and to kill, and to destroy:
I am come that they might have life,
and that they might have it more
abundantly. | |
| 11 I am the good shepherd: the
good shepherd giveth his life for the
sheep. | |
| 12 But he that is a hireling, and
not the shepherd, whose own the sheep
are not, seeth the wolf coming, and
leaveth the sheep, and fleeth; and the
wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the
sheep. | |
| 13 The hireling fleeth, because he
is a hireling, and careth not for the
sheep. | |
| 14 I am the good shepherd, and
know my sheep, and am known of
mine. | |
| 15 As the Father knoweth me,
even so know I the Father: and I lay
down my life for the sheep. | |
| 6 And other sheep I have, which
are not of this fold: them also I must
bring, and they shall hear my voice;
and there shall be one fold, and one
shepherd. | |
| 17 Therefore doth my Father love
me, because I lay down my life, that
I might take it again. | |
| 18 No man taketh it from me, but
I lay it down of myself. I have power
to lay it down, and I have power to
take it again. This commandment
have I received of my Father. | |
| 19 There was a division therefore
again among the Jews for these sayings. | |
| 20 And many of them said, He
hath a devil, and is mad; why hear
ye him? | |
| 21 Others said, These are not the
words of him that hath a devil. Can
a devil open the eyes of the blind? | |
| John. | |
| CH. X. 22-42. | |
| 22 And it was at Jerusalem the
feast of the dedication, and it was
winter. | |
| 23 And Jesus walked in the temple
in Solomon's porch. | |
| 24 Then came the Jews round about
him, and said unto him, How long
dost thou make us to doubt? If thou
be the Christ, tell us plainly. | |
| 25 Jesus answered them, I told you,
and ye believed not: the works that I
do in my Father's name, they bear
witness of me. | |
| 28 But ye believe not, because ye
are not of my sheep, as I said unto
you. | |
| 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I
know them, and they follow me: | |
| 28 And I give unto them eternal
life; and they shall never perish, neither
shall any pluck them out of my
hand. | |
| 29 My Father, which gave them
me, is greater than all; and none is
able to pluck them out of my Father's
hand. | |
| 30 I and my Father are one. | |
| 31 Then the Jews took up stones
again to stone him. | |
| 32 Jesus answered them, Many
good works have I shewed you from
my Father; for which of those works
do ye stone me? | |
| 33 The Jews answered him, saying,
For a good work we stone thee not;
but for blasphemy, and because that
thou, being a man, makest thyself
God. | |
| 34 Jesus answered them, Is it not
written in your law, I said, Ye are
gods?[214] | |
| 35 If he called them gods, unto
whom the word of God came, and the
scripture cannot be broken; | |
| 36 Say ye of him whom the Father
hath sanctified, and sent into the
world, Thou blasphemest; because I
said, I am the Son of God? | |
| 37 If I do not the works of my
Father, believe me not. | |
| 38 But if I do, though ye believe
not me, believe the works: that ye
may know and believe that the Father
is in me, and I in him. | |
| 39 Therefore they sought again to
take him; but he escaped out of their
hand, | |
| 40 And went away again beyond
Jordan, into the place where John at
first baptized; and there he abode. | |
| 41 And many resorted unto him,
and said, John did no miracle; but
all things that John spake of this man
were true. | |
| 42 And many believed on him
there. | |
| John. | |
| CH. XI. 1-46. | |
| Now a certain man was sick, named
Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of
Mary and her sister Martha. | |
| 2 (It was that Mary which anointed
the Lord with ointment, and wiped
his feet with her hair, whose brother
Lazarus was sick.) | |
| 3 Therefore his sisters sent unto
him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom
thou lovest is sick. | |
| 4 When Jesus heard that, he said,
This sickness is not unto death, but
for the glory of God, that the Son of
God might be glorified thereby. | |
| 5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her
sister, and Lazarus. | |
| 6 When he had heard therefore that
he was sick, he abode two days still
in the same place where he was. | |
| 7 Then after that saith he to his
disciples, Let us go into Judea again. | |
| 8 His disciples say unto him, Master,
the Jews of late sought to stone
thee; and goest thou thither again? | |
| 9 Jesus answered, Are there not
twelve hours in the day? If any man
walk in the day, he stumbleth not,
because he seeth the light of this
world. | |
| 10 But if a man walk in the night,
he stumbleth, because there is no
light in him. | |
| 11 These things said he: and after
that he saith unto them, Our friend
Lazarus sleepeth; but I go that I
may awake him out of sleep. | |
| 12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if
he sleep, he shall do well. | |
| 13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his
death: but they thought that he had
spoken of taking of rest in sleep. | |
| 14 Then said Jesus unto them
plainly, Lazarus is dead. | |
| 15 And I am glad for your sakes
that I was not there, to the intent ye
may believe; nevertheless, let us go
unto him. | |
| 16 Then said Thomas, which is
called Didymus, unto his fellow-disciples,
Let us also go, that we may
die with him. | |
| 17 Then when Jesus came, he
found that he had lain in the grave
four days already. | |
| 18 (Now Bethany was nigh unto
Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:) | |
| 19 And many of the Jews came to
Martha and Mary, to comfort them
concerning their brother. | |
| 20 Then Martha, as soon as she
heard that Jesus was coming, went
and met him: but Mary sat still in
the house. | |
| 21 Then said Martha unto Jesus,
Lord, if thou hadst been here, my
brother had not died. | |
| 22 But I know that even now,
whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God
will give it thee. | |
| 23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother
shall rise again. | |
| 24 Martha saith unto him, I know
that he shall rise again in the resurrection
at the last day. | |
| 25 Jesus said unto her, I am the
resurrection, and the life: he that believeth
in me, though he were dead,
yet shall he live: | |
| 26 And whosoever liveth, and believeth
in me, shall never die. Believest
thou this? | |
| 27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord:
I believe that thou art the Christ, the
Son of God, which should come into
the world. | |
| 28 And when she had so said, she
went her way, and called Mary her
sister secretly, saying, The master is
come, and calleth for thee. | |
| 29 As soon as she heard that, she
arose quickly, and came unto him. | |
| 30 Now Jesus was not yet come
into the town, but was in that place
where Martha met him. | |
| 31 The Jews then which were with
her in the house, and comforted her,
when they saw Mary that she rose up
hastily, and went out, followed her,
saying, She goeth unto the grave to
weep there. | |
| 32 Then when Mary was come
where Jesus was, and saw him, she
fell down at his feet, saying unto him,
Lord, if thou hadst been here, my
brother had not died. | |
| 33 When Jesus therefore saw her
weeping, and the Jews also weeping
which came with her, he groaned in
the spirit, and was troubled, | |
| 34 And said, Where have ye laid
him? They say unto him, Lord, come
and see. | |
| 36 Jesus wept. | |
| 36 Then said the Jews, Behold how
he loved him! | |
| 37 And some of them said, Could
not this man, which opened the eyes
of the blind, have caused that even
this man should not have died? | |
| 38 Jesus therefore again groaning
in himself, cometh to the grave. It
was a cave, and a stone lay upon it. | |
| 39 Jesus said, Take ye away the
stone. Martha, the sister of him that
was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by
this time he stinketh: for he hath
been dead four days. | |
| 40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not
unto thee, that if thou wouldest believe,
thou shouldest see the glory of
God? | |
| 41 Then they took away the stone
from the place where the dead was
laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes,
and said, Father, I thank thee that
thou hast heard me. | |
| 42 And I knew that thou hearest
me always: but because of the people
which stand by, I said it, that
they may believe that thou hast sent
me. | |
| 43 And when he thus had spoken,
he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus,
come forth. | |
| 44 And he that was dead came
forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes:
and his face was bound about
with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them,
Loose him, and let him go. | |
| 45 Then many of the Jews which
came to Mary, and had seen the
things which Jesus did, believed on
him. | |
| 46 But some of them went their
ways to the Pharisees, and told them
what things Jesus had done. | |
