The Question about the Sabbath

6One sabbath while Jesus was going through the grainfields, his disciples plucked some heads of grain, rubbed them in their hands, and ate them.G1161G1096G1722G1207G4521G1207G846G1279G1223G4702G2532G846G3101G5089G4719G2532G2068G5597G5495 2But some of the Pharisees said, "Why are you doing what is not lawful on the sabbath?"G1161G5100G5330G2036G846G5101G4160G3739G1832G3756G1832G4160G1722G4521 3Jesus answered, "Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were hungry?G2532G2424G611G4314G846G2036G314G3761G314G3761G5124G3739G1138G4160G3698G846G3983G2532G3588G5607G3326G846 4He entered the house of God and took and ate the bread of the Presence, which it is not lawful for any but the priests to eat, and gave some to his companions?"G5613G1525G1519G3624G2316G2532G2983G2532G5315G740G4286G2532G1325G2532G3326G846G3739G1832G3756G1832G5315G1508G2409G3441 5Then he said to them, "The Son of Man is lord of the sabbath."G2532G3004G846G3754G5207G444G2076G2962G2532G4521

The Man with a Withered Hand

6On another sabbath he entered the synagogue and taught, and there was a man there whose right hand was withered.G1161G1096G2532G1722G2087G4521G846G1525G1519G4864G2532G1321G2532G1563G2258G444G2532G846G1188G5495G2258G3584 7The scribes and the Pharisees watched him to see whether he would cure on the sabbath, so that they might find an accusation against him.G1161G1122G2532G5330G3906G846G1487G2323G1722G4521G2443G2147G2724G846 8Even though he knew what they were thinking, he said to the man who had the withered hand, "Come and stand here." He got up and stood there.G1161G846G1492G846G1261G2532G2036G444G3588G2192G3584G5495G1453G2532G2476G1519G3319G1161G450G2476 9Then Jesus said to them, "I ask you, is it lawful to do good or to do harm on the sabbath, to save life or to destroy it?"G3767G2036G2424G4314G846G1905G5209G5101G1832G4521G15G2228G2554G4982G5590G2228G622 10After looking around at all of them, he said to him, "Stretch out your hand." He did so, and his hand was restored.G2532G4017G846G3956G2036G444G1614G4675G5495G1161G4160G3779G2532G846G5495G600G5199G5613G243 11But they were filled with fury and discussed with one another what they might do to Jesus.G1161G846G4130G454G2532G1255G4314G240G5101G302G4160G2424

Jesus Chooses the Twelve Apostles

12Now during those days he went out to the mountain to pray; and he spent the night in prayer to God.G1161G1096G1722G5025G2250G1831G1519G3735G4336G2532G1273G2258G1722G4335G2316 13And when day came, he called his disciples and chose twelve of them, whom he also named apostles:G2532G3753G1096G2250G4377G846G3101G2532G575G846G1586G1427G3739G2532G3687G652 14Simon, whom he named Peter, and his brother Andrew, and James, and John, and Philip, and Bartholomew,G4613G3739G2532G3687G4074G2532G406G846G80G2385G2532G2491G5376G2532G918 15and Matthew, and Thomas, and James son of Alphaeus, and Simon, who was called the Zealot,G3156G2532G2381G2385G3588G256G2532G4613G2564G2208 16and Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.G2455G2385G2532G2455G2469G3739G2532G1096G4273

Jesus Teaches and Heals

17He came down with them and stood on a level place, with a great crowd of his disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea, Jerusalem, and the coast of Tyre and Sidon.G2532G2597G3326G846G2476G1909G3977G5117G2532G3793G846G3101G2532G4183G4128G2992G575G3956G2449G2532G2419G2532G3882G5184G2532G4605G3739G2064G191G846G2532G2390G575G846G3554 18They had come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases; and those who were troubled with unclean spirits were cured.G2532G3791G5259G169G4151G2532G2323 19And all in the crowd were trying to touch him, for power came out from him and healed all of them.G2532G3956G3793G2212G680G846G3754G1831G1411G3844G846G2532G2390G3956

Blessings and Woes

20Then he looked up at his disciples and said: "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.G2532G846G1869G846G3788G1519G846G3101G3004G3107G4434G3754G5212G2076G932G2316 21"Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be filled. "Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.G3107G3983G3568G3754G5526G3107G2799G3568G3754G1070 22"Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you, revile you, and defame you on account of the Son of Man.G3107G2075G3752G444G3404G5209G2532G3752G873G5209G2532G3679G2532G1544G5216G3686G5613G4190G5207G444G1752 23Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, for surely your reward is great in heaven; for that is what their ancestors did to the prophets.G5463G1722G1565G2250G2532G4640G1063G2400G5216G3408G4183G1722G3772G1063G2596G5024G4160G846G3962G4396 24"But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation.G4133G3759G5213G4145G3754G568G5216G3874 25"Woe to you who are full now, for you will be hungry. "Woe to you who are laughing now, for you will mourn and weep.G3759G5213G1705G3754G3983G3759G5213G1070G3568G3754G3996G2532G2799 26"Woe to you when all speak well of you, for that is what their ancestors did to the false prophets.G3759G5213G3752G3956G444G2036G2573G5209G1063G5024G2596G4160G846G3962G5578

Love for Enemies

27"But I say to you that listen, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,G235G3004G5213G3588G191G25G5216G2190G4160G2573G3588G3404G5209 28bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.G2127G2672G5213G2532G4336G5228G1908G5209 29If anyone strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also; and from anyone who takes away your coat do not withhold even your shirt.G5180G4571G1909G4600G3930G2532G243G2532G575G142G4675G2440G2967G3361G5509G2532 30Give to everyone who begs from you; and if anyone takes away your goods, do not ask for them again.G1161G1325G3956G154G4571G2532G575G142G4674G523G3361G523 31Do to others as you would have them do to you.G2532G2531G2309G2443G444G4160G5213G4160G5210G2532G846G3668 32"If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them.G2532G1487G25G25G5209G4169G5485G2076G5213G1063G268G2532G25G25G846 33If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.G2532G1437G15G15G5209G4169G5485G2076G5213G1063G268G4160G2532G846 34If you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to receive as much again.G2532G1437G1155G3844G3739G1679G1679G618G4169G5485G2076G5213G1063G268G2532G1155G268G2443G618G2470G618 35But love your enemies, do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return. Your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High; for he is kind to the ungrateful and the wicked.G4133G25G5216G2190G2532G15G2532G1155G560G3367G560G2532G5216G3408G2071G4183G2532G2071G5207G5310G3754G846G2076G5543G1909G884G2532G4190 36Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.G1096G3767G3629G2531G5216G3962G2532G2076G3629

Judging Others

37"Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven;G2532G2919G3361G2532G2919G3364G2919G2613G3361G2532G2613G3364G2613G630G2532G630 38give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap; for the measure you give will be the measure you get back."G1325G2532G1325G5213G2570G3358G4085G2532G4531G2532G5240G1325G1519G5216G2859G1063G846G3358G3739G3354G488G5213G488 39He also told them a parable: "Can a blind person guide a blind person? Will not both fall into a pit?G1161G2036G3850G846G3385G1410G5185G3594G5185G297G3780G297G4098G1519G999 40A disciple is not above the teacher, but everyone who is fully qualified will be like the teacher.G3101G2076G3756G5228G846G1320G1161G3956G2675G2071G5613G846G1320 41Why do you see the speck in your neighbor's eye, but do not notice the log in your own eye?G1161G5101G991G2595G1722G4675G80G3788G1161G2657G3756G1385G1722G2398G3788 42Or how can you say to your neighbor, 'Friend, let me take out the speck in your eye,' when you yourself do not see the log in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your neighbor's eye.G2228G4459G1410G3004G4675G80G80G863G1544G2595G1722G4675G3788G991G846G991G3756G1385G1722G4675G3788G5273G1544G4412G1385G1537G4675G3788G2532G5119G1227G1544G2595G1722G4675G80G3788

A Tree and Its Fruit

43"No good tree bears bad fruit, nor again does a bad tree bear good fruit;G1063G2570G1186G2076G4160G3756G4160G4550G2590G3761G4160G4550G1186G4160G2570G2590 44for each tree is known by its own fruit. Figs are not gathered from thorns, nor are grapes picked from a bramble bush.G1063G1538G1186G1097G1537G2398G2590G1063G1537G173G3756G4816G4810G3761G1537G942G5166G4718 45The good person out of the good treasure of the heart produces good, and the evil person out of evil treasure produces evil; for it is out of the abundance of the heart that the mouth speaks.G18G444G1537G18G2344G846G2588G4393G18G2532G4190G444G1537G4190G2344G846G2588G4393G4190G1063G1537G4051G2588G846G4750G2980

The Two Foundations

46"Why do you call me 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I tell you?G1161G5101G2564G3165G2962G2962G2532G4160G3756G3739G3004 47I will show you what someone is like who comes to me, hears my words, and acts on them.G3956G2064G4314G3165G2532G191G3450G3056G2532G4160G846G5263G5213G5101G2076G3664 48That one is like a man building a house, who dug deeply and laid the foundation on rock; when a flood arose, the river burst against that house but could not shake it, because it had been well built.G2076G3664G444G3739G3618G3614G2532G4626G900G2532G5087G2310G1909G4073G1161G4132G1096G4215G4366G1565G3614G2532G2480G3756G4531G846G1063G2311G1909G4073 49But the one who hears and does not act is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. When the river burst against it, immediately it fell, and great was the ruin of that house."G1161G191G2532G4160G3361G2076G3664G444G5565G2310G3618G3614G1909G1093G4366G3739G4215G4366G2532G2112G4098G2532G4485G1565G3614G1096G3173
