AndG2532 whenG3753 they drew nighG1448 untoG1519 JerusalemG2414, andG2532 were comeG2064 toG1519 BethphageG967, untoG4314 the mountG3735 of OlivesG1636, thenG5119 sentG649 JesusG2424 twoG1417 disciplesG3101,
SayingG3004 unto themG846, GoG4198 intoG1519 the villageG2968 over againstG561 youG5216, andG2532 straightwayG2112 ye shall findG2147 an assG3688 tiedG1210, andG2532 a coltG4454 withG3326 herG846: looseG3089 them, and bringG71 them unto meG3427.
AndG2532 ifG1437 any manG5100 sayG2036 oughtG5100 unto youG5213, ye shall sayG2046+G3754, The LordG2962 hathG2192 needG5532 of themG846; andG1161 straightwayG2112 he will sendG649 themG846.
AllG1161+G3650 thisG5124 was doneG1096, thatG2443 it might be fulfilledG4137 whichG3588 was spokenG4483 byG1223 the prophetG4396, sayingG3004,
Tell yeG2036 the daughterG2364 of SionG4622, BeholdG2400, thyG4675 KingG935 comethG2064 unto theeG4671, meekG4239, andG2532 sittingG1910 uponG1909 an assG3688, andG2532 a coltG4454 the foalG5207 of an assG5268.
AndG1161 the disciplesG3101 wentG4198, andG2532 didG4160 asG2531 JesusG2424 commandedG4367 themG846,
And broughtG71 the assG3688, andG2532 the coltG4454, andG2532 putG2007 onG1883 themG846 theirG846 clothesG2440, andG2532 they setG1940 him thereonG1883+G846.
AndG1161 a very greatG4118 multitudeG3793 spreadG4766 theirG1438 garmentsG2440 inG1722 the wayG3598; othersG1161+G243 cut downG2875 branchesG2798 fromG575 the treesG1186, andG2532 strawedG4766 them inG1722 the wayG3598.
AndG1161 the multitudesG3793 that went beforeG4254, andG2532 that followedG190, criedG2896, sayingG3004, HosannaG5614 to the SonG5207 of DavidG1138: BlessedG2127 is he that comethG2064 inG1722 the nameG3686 of the LordG2962; HosannaG5614 inG1722 the highestG5310.
AndG2532 when heG846 was comeG1525 intoG1519 JerusalemG2414, allG3956 the cityG4172 was movedG4579, sayingG3004, WhoG5101 isG2076 thisG3778?
AndG1161 the multitudeG3793 saidG3004, ThisG3778 isG2076 JesusG2424 the prophetG4396 ofG575 NazarethG3478 of GalileeG1056.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 wentG1525 intoG1519 the templeG2411 of GodG2316, andG2532 cast outG1544 all themG3956 that soldG4453 andG2532 boughtG59 inG1722 the templeG2411, andG2532 overthrewG2690 the tablesG5132 of the moneychangersG2855, andG2532 the seatsG2515 of them that soldG4453 dovesG4058,
AndG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, It is writtenG1125, MyG3450 houseG3624 shall be calledG2564 the houseG3624 of prayerG4335; butG1161 yeG5210 have madeG4160 itG846 a denG4693 of thievesG3027.
AndG2532 the blindG5185 andG2532 the lameG5560 cameG4334 to himG846 inG1722 the templeG2411; andG2532 he healedG2323 themG846.
AndG1161 when the chief priestsG749 andG2532 scribesG1122 sawG1492 the wonderful thingsG2297 thatG3739 he didG4160, andG2532 the childrenG3816 cryingG2896 inG1722 the templeG2411, andG2532 sayingG3004, HosannaG5614 to the SonG5207 of DavidG1138; they were sore displeasedG23,
AndG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, Hearest thouG191 whatG5101 theseG3778 sayG3004? AndG1161 JesusG2424 saithG3004 unto themG846, YeaG3483; have ye neverG3763 readG314+G3754, Out ofG1537 the mouthG4750 of babesG3516 andG2532 sucklingsG2337 thou hast perfectedG2675 praiseG136?
AndG2532 he leftG2641 themG846, and wentG1831 out ofG1854 the cityG4172 intoG1519 BethanyG963; andG2532 he lodgedG835 thereG1563.
NowG1161 in the morningG4405 as he returnedG1877 intoG1519 the cityG4172, he hungeredG3983.
AndG2532 when he sawG1492 aG3391 fig treeG4808 inG1909 the wayG3598, he cameG2064 toG1909 itG846, andG2532 foundG2147 nothingG3762 thereonG1722+G846, butG1508 leavesG5444 onlyG3440, andG2532 saidG3004 unto itG846, Let noG1096 fruitG2590 growG1096 onG1537 theeG4675 henceforwardG3371 forG1519 everG165. AndG2532 presentlyG3916 the fig treeG4808 withered awayG3583. {a fig tree: Gr. one fig tree}
AndG2532 when the disciplesG3101 sawG1492 it, they marvelledG2296, sayingG3004, HowG4459 soonG3916 is the fig treeG4808 withered awayG3583!
JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG1161 saidG2036 unto themG846, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, IfG1437 ye haveG2192 faithG4102, andG2532 doubtG1252 notG3361, ye shallG4160 notG3756 onlyG3440 doG4160 thisG3440 which is done to the fig treeG4808, butG235 also ifG2579 ye shall sayG2036 unto thisG5129 mountainG3735, Be thou removedG142, andG2532 be thou castG906 intoG1519 the seaG2281; it shall be doneG1096.
AndG2532 all thingsG3956, whatsoeverG302+G3745 ye shall askG154 inG1722 prayerG4335, believingG4100, ye shall receiveG2983.
AndG2532 when heG846 was comeG2064 intoG1519 the templeG2411, the chief priestsG749 andG2532 the eldersG4245 of the peopleG2992 cameG4334 unto himG846 as he was teachingG1321, and saidG3004, ByG1722 whatG4169 authorityG1849 doest thouG4160 these thingsG5023? andG2532 whoG5101 gaveG1325 theeG4671 thisG5026 authorityG1849?
AndG1161 JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto themG846, I alsoG2504 will askG2065 youG5209 oneG1520 thingG3056, whichG3739 ifG1437 ye tellG2036 meG3427, I in like wiseG2504 will tellG2046 youG5213 byG1722 whatG4169 authorityG1849 I doG4160 these thingsG5023.
The baptismG908 of JohnG2491, whenceG4159 was itG2258? fromG1537 heavenG3772, orG2228 ofG1537 menG444? AndG1161 they reasonedG1260 withG3844 themselvesG1438, sayingG3004, IfG1437 we shall sayG2036, FromG1537 heavenG3772; he will sayG2046 unto usG2254, WhyG1302 did yeG4100 notG3756 thenG3767 believeG4100 himG846?
ButG1161 ifG1437 we shall sayG2036, OfG1537 menG444; we fearG5399 the peopleG3793; forG1063 allG3956 holdG2192 JohnG2491 asG5613 a prophetG4396.
AndG2532 they answeredG611 JesusG2424, and saidG2036, We cannotG3756 tellG1492. AndG2532 heG846 saidG5346 unto themG846, NeitherG3761 tellG3004 IG1473 youG5213 byG1722 whatG4169 authorityG1849 I doG4160 these thingsG5023.
ButG1161 whatG5101 thinkG1380 yeG5213? A certain manG444 hadG2192 twoG1417 sonsG5043; andG2532 he cameG4334 to the firstG4413, and saidG2036, SonG5043, goG5217 workG2038 to dayG4594 inG1722 myG3450 vineyardG290.
He answeredG1161+G611 and saidG2036, I willG2309 notG3756: butG1161 afterwardG5305 he repentedG3338, and wentG565.
AndG2532 he cameG4334 to the secondG1208, and saidG2036 likewiseG5615. AndG1161 he answeredG611 and saidG2036, IG1473 go, sirG2962: andG2532 wentG565 notG3756.
WhetherG5101 ofG1537 them twainG1417 didG4160 the willG2307 of his fatherG3962? They sayG3004 unto himG846, The firstG4413. JesusG2424 saithG3004 unto themG846, VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 the publicansG5057 andG2532 the harlotsG4204 goG4254 intoG1519 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 beforeG4254 youG5209.
ForG1063 JohnG2491 cameG2064 untoG4314 youG5209 inG1722 the wayG3598 of righteousnessG1343, andG2532 ye believedG4100 himG846 notG3756: butG1161 the publicansG5057 andG2532 the harlotsG4204 believedG4100 himG846: andG1161 yeG5210, when ye had seenG1492 it, repentedG3338 notG3756 afterwardG5305, that ye might believeG4100 himG846.
HearG191 anotherG243 parableG3850: There wasG2258 a certainG444+G5100 householderG3617, whichG3748 plantedG5452 a vineyardG290, andG2532 hedgedG5418 itG846 round aboutG4060, andG2532 diggedG3736 a winepressG3025 inG1722 itG846, andG2532 builtG3618 a towerG4444, andG2532 letG1554 itG846 outG1554 to husbandmenG1092, andG2532 went into a far countryG589:
AndG1161 whenG3753 the timeG2540 of the fruitG2590 drew nearG1448, he sentG649 hisG846 servantsG1401 toG4314 the husbandmenG1092, that they might receiveG2983 the fruitsG2590 of itG846.
AndG2532 the husbandmenG1092 tookG2983 hisG846 servantsG1401, and beatG1194 oneG3739+G3303, andG1161 killedG615 anotherG3739, andG1161 stonedG3036 anotherG3739.
AgainG3825, he sentG649 otherG243 servantsG1401 moreG4119 than the firstG4413: andG2532 they didG4160 unto themG846 likewiseG5615.
ButG1161 last of allG5305 he sentG649 untoG4314 themG846 hisG846 sonG5207, sayingG3004, They will reverenceG1788 myG3450 sonG5207.
ButG1161 when the husbandmenG1092 sawG1492 the sonG5207, they saidG2036 amongG1722 themselvesG1438, ThisG3778 isG2076 the heirG2818; comeG1205, let us killG615 himG846, andG2532 let us seizeG2722 on hisG846 inheritanceG2817.
AndG2532 they caughtG2983 himG846, and castG1544 him out ofG1854 the vineyardG290, andG2532 slewG615 him.
WhenG3752 the lordG2962 thereforeG3767 of the vineyardG290 comethG2064, whatG5101 will he doG4160 unto thoseG1565 husbandmenG1092?
They sayG3004 unto himG846, He will miserablyG2560 destroyG622 thoseG846 wicked menG2556, andG2532 will let outG1554 his vineyardG290 unto otherG243 husbandmenG1092, whichG3748 shall renderG591 himG846 the fruitsG2590 inG1722 theirG846 seasonsG2540.
JesusG2424 saithG3004 unto themG846, Did yeG314 neverG3763 readG314 inG1722 the scripturesG1124, The stoneG3037 whichG3739 the buildersG3618 rejectedG593, the sameG3778 is becomeG1096+G1519 the headG2776 of the cornerG1137: thisG3778 isG3844 the Lord'sG2962 doingG1096, andG2532 it isG2076 marvellousG2298 inG1722 ourG2257 eyesG3788?
ThereforeG1223+G5124 say IG3004 unto youG5213+G3754, The kingdomG932 of GodG2316 shall be takenG142 fromG575 youG5216, andG2532 givenG1325 to a nationG1484 bringing forthG4160 the fruitsG2590 thereofG846.
AndG2532 whosoever shall fallG4098 onG1909 thisG5126 stoneG3037 shall be brokenG4917: butG1161 onG1909 whomsoeverG3739+G302 it shall fallG4098, it will grindG3039 himG846 to powderG3039.
AndG2532 when the chief priestsG749 andG2532 PhariseesG5330 had heardG191 hisG846 parablesG3850, they perceivedG1097 thatG3754 he spakeG3004 ofG4012 themG846.
ButG2532 when they soughtG2212 to lay handsG2902 on himG846, they fearedG5399 the multitudeG3793, becauseG1894 they tookG2192 himG846 forG5613 a prophetG4396.
Querverweise zu Matthäus 21,25 Mt 21,25
InG1722 thoseG1565 daysG2250 cameG3854 JohnG2491 the BaptistG910, preachingG2784 inG1722 the wildernessG2048 of JudaeaG2449,
AndG2532 sayingG3004, Repent yeG3340: forG1063 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 is at handG1448.
ForG1063 thisG3778 is heG2076 that was spokenG4483 of byG5259 the prophetG4396 EsaiasG2268, sayingG3004, The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.
AndG1161 the sameG846 JohnG2491 hadG2192 hisG846 raimentG1742 ofG575 camel'sG2574 hairG2359, andG2532 a leathernG1193 girdleG2223 aboutG4012 hisG846 loinsG3751; andG1161 hisG846 meatG5160 wasG2258 locustsG200 andG2532 wildG66 honeyG3192.
ThenG5119 went outG1607 toG4314 himG846 JerusalemG2414, andG2532 allG3956 JudaeaG2449, andG2532 allG3956 the region round aboutG4066 JordanG2446,
AndG2532 were baptizedG907 ofG5259 himG846 inG1722 JordanG2446, confessingG1843 theirG846 sinsG266.
ButG1161 when he sawG1492 manyG4183 of the PhariseesG5330 andG2532 SadduceesG4523 comeG2064 toG1909 hisG846 baptismG908, he saidG2036 unto themG846, O generationG1081 of vipersG2191, whoG5101 hath warnedG5263 youG5213 to fleeG5343 fromG575 the wrathG3709 to comeG3195?
Bring forthG4160 thereforeG3767 fruitsG2590 meetG514 for repentanceG3341: {meet…: or, answerable to amendment of life}
AndG2532 thinkG1380 notG3361 to sayG3004 withinG1722 yourselvesG1438, We haveG2192 AbrahamG11 to our fatherG3962: forG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, thatG3754 GodG2316 is ableG1410 ofG1537 theseG5130 stonesG3037 to raise upG1453 childrenG5043 unto AbrahamG11.
AndG1161 nowG2235 alsoG2532 the axeG513 is laidG2749 untoG4314 the rootG4491 of the treesG1186: thereforeG3767 everyG3956 treeG1186 which bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442.
IG1473 indeedG3303 baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 waterG5204 untoG1519 repentanceG3341: butG1161 he that comethG2064 afterG3694 meG3450 isG2076 mightier thanG2478 IG3450, whoseG3739 shoesG5266 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 to bearG941: heG846 shall baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 with fireG4442:
WhoseG3739 fanG4425 is inG1722 hisG846 handG5495, andG2532 he will throughly purgeG1245 hisG846 floorG257, andG2532 gatherG4863 hisG846 wheatG4621 intoG1519 the garnerG596; butG1161 he will burn upG2618 the chaffG892 with unquenchableG762 fireG4442.
AndG1161 they reasonedG4817 withG4314 themselvesG1438, sayingG3004+G3754, IfG1437 we shall sayG2036, FromG1537 heavenG3772; he will sayG2046, WhyG1302 thenG3767 believed yeG4100 himG846 notG3756?
AndG1161 asG5130 they departedG4198, JesusG2424 beganG756 to sayG3004 unto the multitudesG3793 concerningG4012 JohnG2491, WhatG5101 went yeG1831 out intoG1519 the wildernessG2048 to seeG2300? A reedG2563 shakenG4531 withG5259 the windG417?
ButG235 whatG5101 went ye outG1831 for to seeG1492? A manG444 clothedG294 inG1722 softG3120 raimentG2440? beholdG2400, they that wearG5409 softG3120 clothing areG1526 inG1722 kings'G935 housesG3624.
ButG235 whatG5101 went ye outG1831 for to seeG1492? A prophetG4396? yeaG3483, I sayG3004 unto youG5213, andG2532 moreG4055 than a prophetG4396.
ForG1063 thisG3778 isG2076 he, ofG4012 whomG3739 it is writtenG1125, BeholdG2400, IG1473 sendG649 myG3450 messengerG32 beforeG4253 thyG4675 faceG4383, whichG3739 shall prepareG2680 thyG4675 wayG3598 beforeG1715 theeG4675.
VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, AmongG1722 them that are bornG1084 of womenG1135 there hathG1453 notG3756 risenG1453 a greater thanG3187 JohnG2491 the BaptistG910: notwithstandingG1161 he that is leastG3398 inG1722 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 isG2076 greater thanG3187 heG846.
AndG1161 fromG575 the daysG2250 of JohnG2491 the BaptistG910 untilG2193 nowG737 the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772 suffereth violenceG971, andG2532 the violentG973 takeG726 itG846 by forceG726. {suffereth…: or, is gotten by force, and they that thrust men}
ForG1063 allG3956 the prophetsG4396 andG2532 the lawG3551 prophesiedG4395 untilG2193 JohnG2491.
AndG2532 ifG1487 ye willG2309 receiveG1209 it, thisG846 isG2076 EliasG2243, whichG3588 was forG3195 to comeG2064.
He that believethG4100 onG1519 himG846 isG2919 notG3756 condemnedG2919: butG1161 he that believethG4100 notG3361 is condemnedG2919 alreadyG2235, becauseG3754 he hathG4100 notG3361 believedG4100 inG1519 the nameG3686 of the only begottenG3439 SonG5207 of GodG2316.
ButG1161 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 EliasG2243 is comeG2064 alreadyG2235, andG2532 they knewG1921 himG846 notG3756, butG235 have doneG4160 untoG1722 himG846 whatsoeverG3745 they listedG2309. LikewiseG3779 shallG3195 alsoG2532 the SonG5207 of manG444 sufferG3958 ofG5259 themG846.
YeG5210 sentG649 untoG4314 JohnG2491, andG2532 he bare witnessG3140 unto the truthG225.
ButG1161 IG1473 receiveG2983 notG3756 testimonyG3141 fromG3844 manG444: butG235 these thingsG5023 I sayG3004, thatG2443 yeG5210 might be savedG4982.
HeG1565 wasG2258 a burningG2545 andG2532 a shiningG5316 lightG3088: andG1161 yeG5210 were willingG2309 forG4314 a seasonG5610 to rejoiceG21 inG1722 hisG846 lightG5457.
ButG1161 IG1473 haveG2192 greaterG3187 witnessG3141 than that of JohnG2491: forG1063 the worksG2041 whichG3739 the FatherG3962 hath givenG1325 meG3427 toG2443 finishG5048+G846, the sameG846 worksG2041 thatG3739 IG1473 doG4160, bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 meG1700, thatG3754 the FatherG3962 hath sentG649 meG3165.
ThenG5119 the disciplesG3101 understoodG4920 thatG3754 he spakeG2036 unto themG846 ofG4012 JohnG2491 the BaptistG910.
HowG4459 canG1410 yeG5210 believeG4100, which receiveG2983 honourG1391 one of anotherG3844+G240, andG2532 seekG2212 notG3756 the honourG1391 that cometh fromG3844 GodG2316 onlyG3441?
DoG1380 notG3361 thinkG1380 thatG3754 IG1473 will accuseG2723 youG5216 toG4314 the FatherG3962: there isG2076 one that accusethG2723 youG5216, even MosesG3475, inG1519 whomG3739 yeG5210 trustG1679.
ForG1063+G1487 had ye believedG4100 MosesG3475, ye would have believedG4100+G302 meG1698: forG1063 heG1565 wroteG1125 ofG4012 meG1700.
ButG1161 ifG1487 ye believeG4100 notG3756 hisG1565 writingsG1121, howG4459 shall ye believeG4100 myG1699 wordsG4487?
The beginningG746 of the gospelG2098 of JesusG2424 ChristG5547, the SonG5207 of GodG2316;
AsG5613 it is writtenG1125 inG1722 the prophetsG4396, BeholdG2400, IG1473 sendG649 myG3450 messengerG32 beforeG4253 thyG4675 faceG4383, whichG3739 shall prepareG2680 thyG4675 wayG3598 beforeG1715 theeG4675.
The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.
JohnG2491 didG1096 baptizeG907 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, andG2532 preachG2784 the baptismG908 of repentanceG3341 forG1519 the remissionG859 of sinsG266. {for: or, unto}
AndG2532 there went outG1607 untoG4314 himG846 allG3956 the landG5561 of JudaeaG2449, andG2532 they of JerusalemG2415, andG2532 wereG907 allG3956 baptizedG907 ofG5259 himG846 inG1722 the riverG4215 of JordanG2446, confessingG1843 theirG846 sinsG266.
AndG1161 JohnG2491 wasG2258 clothedG1746 with camel'sG2574 hairG2359, andG2532 with a girdleG2223 of a skinG1193 aboutG4012 hisG846 loinsG3751; andG2532 he did eatG2068 locustsG200 andG2532 wildG66 honeyG3192;
AndG2532 preachedG2784, sayingG3004, There comethG2064 one mightier thanG2478 IG3450 afterG3694 meG3450, the latchetG2438 of whoseG3739 shoesG846+G5266 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 to stoop downG2955 and unlooseG3089.
IG1473 indeedG3303 have baptizedG907 youG5209 withG1722 waterG5204: butG1161 heG846 shall baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096 inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG2250, that JesusG2424 cameG2064 fromG575 NazarethG3478 of GalileeG1056, andG2532 was baptizedG907 ofG5259 JohnG2491 inG1519 JordanG2446.
AndG2532 straightwayG2112 coming upG305 out ofG575 the waterG5204, he sawG1492 the heavensG3772 openedG4977, andG2532 the SpiritG4151 likeG5616 a doveG4058 descendingG2597 uponG1909 himG846: {opened: or, cloven, or, rent}
AndG2532 there cameG1096 a voiceG5456 fromG1537 heavenG3772, saying, ThouG4771 artG1488 myG3450 belovedG27 SonG5207, inG1722 whomG3739 I am well pleasedG2106.
JesusG2424 answeredG611 themG846, I toldG2036 youG5213, andG2532 ye believedG4100 notG3756: the worksG2041 thatG3739 IG1473 doG4160 inG1722 myG3450 Father'sG3962 nameG3686, theyG5023 bear witnessG3140 ofG4012 meG1700.
AndG2532 they comeG2064 againG3825 toG1519 JerusalemG2414: andG2532 as heG846 was walkingG4043 inG1722 the templeG2411, there comeG2064 toG4314 himG846 the chief priestsG749, andG2532 the scribesG1122, andG2532 the eldersG4245,
AndG2532 sayG3004 unto himG846, ByG1722 whatG4169 authorityG1849 doest thouG4160 these thingsG5023? andG2532 whoG5101 gaveG1325 theeG4671 thisG5026 authorityG1849 toG2443 doG4160 these thingsG5023?
AndG1161 JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto themG846, I willG1905 alsoG2504 askG1905 of youG5209 oneG1520 questionG3056, andG2532 answerG611 meG3427, andG2532 I will tellG2046 youG5213 byG1722 whatG4169 authorityG1849 I doG4160 these thingsG5023. {question: or, thing}
The baptismG908 of JohnG2491, wasG2258 it fromG1537 heavenG3772, orG2228 ofG1537 menG444? answerG611 meG3427.
AndG2532 they reasonedG3049 withG4314 themselvesG1438, sayingG3004, IfG1437 we shall sayG2036, FromG1537 heavenG3772; he will sayG2046, WhyG1302 thenG3767 did yeG4100 notG3756 believeG4100 himG846?
ButG235 ifG1437 we shall sayG2036, OfG1537 menG444; they fearedG5399 the peopleG2992: forG1063 allG537 men countedG2192 JohnG2491, thatG3754 he wasG2258 a prophetG4396 indeedG3689.
AndG2532 they answeredG611 and saidG3004 unto JesusG2424, WeG1492 cannotG3756 tellG1492. AndG2532 JesusG2424 answeringG611 saithG3004 unto themG846, NeitherG3761 do IG1473 tellG3004 youG5213 byG1722 whatG4169 authorityG1849 I doG4160 these thingsG5023.
ButG235 yeG5210 believeG4100 notG3756, becauseG1063 ye areG2075 notG3756 ofG1537 myG1699 sheepG4263, asG2531 I saidG2036 unto youG5213.
AndG1161 there appearedG3700 unto himG846 an angelG32 of the LordG2962 standingG2476 onG1537 the right sideG1188 of the altarG2379 of incenseG2368.
AndG2532 when ZachariasG2197 sawG1492 him, he was troubledG5015, andG2532 fearG5401 fellG1968 uponG1909 himG846.
ButG1161 the angelG32 saidG2036 untoG4314 himG846, FearG5399 notG3361, ZachariasG2197: forG1360 thyG4675 prayerG1162 is heardG1522; andG2532 thyG4675 wifeG1135 ElisabethG1665 shall bearG1080 theeG4671 a sonG5207, andG2532 thou shalt callG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 JohnG2491.
AndG2532 thouG4671 shalt haveG2071 joyG5479 andG2532 gladnessG20; andG2532 manyG4183 shall rejoiceG5463 atG1909 hisG846 birthG1083.
ForG1063 he shall beG2071 greatG3173 in the sightG1799 of the LordG2962, andG2532 shall drinkG4095 neitherG3364 wineG3631 norG2532 strong drinkG4608; andG2532 he shall be filledG4130 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151, evenG2089 fromG1537 hisG846 mother'sG3384 wombG2836.
AndG2532 manyG4183 of the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474 shall he turnG1994 toG1909 the LordG2962 theirG846 GodG2316.
AndG2532 heG846 shall goG4281 beforeG1799 himG846 inG1722 the spiritG4151 andG2532 powerG1411 of EliasG2243, to turnG1994 the heartsG2588 of the fathersG3962 toG1909 the childrenG5043, andG2532 the disobedientG545 toG1722 the wisdomG5428 of the justG1342; to make readyG2090 a peopleG2992 preparedG2680 for the LordG2962. {to the wisdom: or, by the wisdom}
ButG1161 though heG846 had doneG4160 so manyG5118 miraclesG4592 beforeG1715 themG846, yet they believedG4100 notG3756 onG1519 himG846:
ThatG2443 the sayingG3056 of EsaiasG2268 the prophetG4396 might be fulfilledG4137, whichG3739 he spakeG2036, LordG2962, whoG5101 hath believedG4100 ourG2257 reportG189? andG2532 to whomG5101 hath the armG1023 of the LordG2962 been revealedG601?
ThereforeG5124+G1223 they couldG1410 notG3756 believeG4100, becauseG3754 that EsaiasG2268 saidG2036 againG3825,
He hath blindedG5186 theirG846 eyesG3788, andG2532 hardenedG4456 theirG846 heartG2588; thatG3363 they shouldG1492 notG3363 seeG1492 with their eyesG3788, norG2532 understandG3539 with their heartG2588, andG2532 be convertedG1994, andG2532 I should healG2390 themG846.
These thingsG5023 saidG2036 EsaiasG2268, whenG3753 he sawG1492 hisG846 gloryG1391, andG2532 spakeG2980 ofG4012 himG846.
NeverthelessG3676+G3305 amongG1537 the chief rulersG758 alsoG2532 manyG4183 believedG4100 onG1519 himG846; butG235 becauseG1223 of the PhariseesG5330 they didG3670 notG3756 confessG3670 him, lestG3363 they should beG1096 put out of the synagogueG656:
ForG1063 they lovedG25 the praiseG1391 of menG444 moreG3123 thanG2260 the praiseG1391 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 hisG846 fatherG3962 ZachariasG2197 was filledG4130 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 prophesiedG4395, sayingG3004,
BlessedG2128 be the LordG2962 GodG2316 of IsraelG2474; forG3754 he hath visitedG1980 andG2532 redeemedG3085 hisG846 peopleG2992+G4160,
AndG2532 hath raised upG1453 an hornG2768 of salvationG4991 for usG2254 inG1722 the houseG3624 of hisG846 servantG3816 DavidG1138;
AsG2531 he spakeG2980 byG1223 the mouthG4750 of hisG846 holyG40 prophetsG4396, whichG3588 have been sinceG575 the world beganG165:
That we should be savedG4991 fromG1537 ourG2257 enemiesG2190, andG2532 fromG1537 the handG5495 of allG3956 that hateG3404 usG2248;
To performG4160 the mercyG1656 promised toG3326 ourG2257 fathersG3962, andG2532 to rememberG3415 hisG846 holyG40 covenantG1242;
The oathG3727 whichG3739 he swareG3660 toG4314 ourG2257 fatherG3962 AbrahamG11,
That he would grantG1325 unto usG2254, that we being deliveredG4506 out ofG1537 the handG5495 of ourG2257 enemiesG2190 might serveG3000 himG846 without fearG870,
InG1722 holinessG3742 andG2532 righteousnessG1343 beforeG1799 himG846, allG3956 the daysG2250 of ourG2257 lifeG2222.
AndG2532 thouG4771, childG3813, shalt be calledG2564 the prophetG4396 of the HighestG5310: forG1063 thou shalt goG4313 beforeG4253 the faceG4383 of the LordG2962 to prepareG2090 hisG846 waysG3598;
To giveG1325 knowledgeG1108 of salvationG4991 unto hisG846 peopleG2992 byG1722 the remissionG859 of theirG846 sinsG266, {by: or, for}
ThroughG1223 the tenderG4698 mercyG1656 of ourG2257 GodG2316; wherebyG1722+G3739 the dayspringG395 fromG1537 on highG5311 hath visitedG1980 usG2248, {tender…: or, bowels of the mercy} {dayspring: or, Sunrising, or, branch, Zac.3.8, esay II, I Malich.4.2, numb.24.17}
To give lightG2014 to them that sitG2521 inG1722 darknessG4655 andG2532 in the shadowG4639 of deathG2288, to guideG2720 ourG2257 feetG4228 intoG1519 the wayG3598 of peaceG1515.
AndG1161 the childG3813 grewG837, andG2532 waxed strongG2901 in spiritG4151, andG2532 wasG2258 inG1722 the desertsG2048 tillG2193 the dayG2250 of hisG846 shewingG323 untoG4314 IsraelG2474.
ForG3754 ifG1437 ourG2257 heartG2588 condemn usG2607+G3754, GodG2316 isG2076 greaterG3187 than ourG2257 heartG2588, andG2532 knowethG1097 all thingsG3956.
AnnasG452 andG2532 CaiaphasG2533 beingG1909 the high priestsG749, the wordG4487 of GodG2316 cameG1096 untoG1909 JohnG2491 the sonG5207 of ZachariasG2197 inG1722 the wildernessG2048.
AndG2532 he cameG2064 intoG1519 allG3956 the country aboutG4066 JordanG2446, preachingG2784 the baptismG908 of repentanceG3341 forG1519 the remissionG859 of sinsG266;
AsG5613 it is writtenG1125 inG1722 the bookG976 of the wordsG3056 of EsaiasG2268 the prophetG4396, sayingG3004, The voiceG5456 of one cryingG994 inG1722 the wildernessG2048, Prepare yeG2090 the wayG3598 of the LordG2962, makeG4160 hisG846 pathsG5147 straightG2117.
EveryG3956 valleyG5327 shall beG2071 filledG4137, andG2532 everyG3956 mountainG3735 andG2532 hillG1015 shall be brought lowG5013; andG2532 the crookedG4646 shall be madeG1519 straightG2117, andG2532 the roughG5138 waysG3598 shall be madeG1519 smoothG3006;
AndG2532 allG3956 fleshG4561 shall seeG3700 the salvationG4992 of GodG2316.
ThenG3767 saidG3004 he to the multitudeG3793 that came forthG1607 to be baptizedG907 ofG5259 himG846, O generationG1081 of vipersG2191, whoG5101 hath warnedG5263 youG5213 to fleeG5343 fromG575 the wrathG3709 to comeG3195?
Bring forthG4160 thereforeG3767 fruitsG2590 worthyG514 of repentanceG3341, andG2532 beginG756 notG3361 to sayG3004 withinG1722 yourselvesG1438, We haveG2192 AbrahamG11 to our fatherG3962: forG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 GodG2316 is ableG1410 ofG1537 theseG5130 stonesG3037 to raise upG1453 childrenG5043 unto AbrahamG11. {worthy of: or, meet for}
AndG1161 nowG2235 alsoG2532 the axeG513 is laidG2749 untoG4314 the rootG4491 of the treesG1186: everyG3956 treeG1186 thereforeG3767 which bringethG4160 notG3361 forthG4160 goodG2570 fruitG2590 is hewn downG1581, andG2532 castG906 intoG1519 the fireG4442.
AndG2532 the peopleG3793 askedG1905 himG846, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 shall we doG4160 thenG3767?
He answerethG611 andG1161 saithG3004 unto themG846, He that hathG2192 twoG1417 coatsG5509, let him impartG3330 to him that hathG2192 noneG3361; andG2532 he that hathG2192 meatG1033, let him doG4160 likewiseG3668.
ThenG1161 cameG2064 alsoG2532 publicansG5057 to be baptizedG907, andG2532 saidG2036 untoG4314 himG846, MasterG1320, whatG5101 shall we doG4160?
AndG1161 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, ExactG4238 noG3367 moreG4119 thanG3844 that which is appointedG1299 youG5213.
AndG1161 the soldiersG4754 likewiseG2532 demandedG1905 of himG846, sayingG3004, AndG2532 whatG5101 shall weG2249 doG4160? AndG2532 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, Do violenceG1286 to no manG3367, neitherG3366 accuse any falselyG4811; andG2532 be contentG714 with yourG5216 wagesG3800. {Do violence…: or, Put no man in fear} {wages: or, allowance}
AndG1161 as the peopleG2992 were in expectationG4328, andG2532 all menG3956 musedG1260 inG1722 theirG846 heartsG2588 ofG4012 JohnG2491, whetherG3379 heG846 wereG1498 the ChristG5547, or notG3379; {in expectation: or, in suspense} {mused: or, reasoned, or, debated}
JohnG2491 answeredG611, sayingG3004 unto them allG537, IG1473 indeedG3303 baptizeG907 youG5209 with waterG5204; butG1161 one mightier thanG2478 IG3450 comethG2064, the latchetG2438 of whoseG3739+G846 shoesG5266 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 to unlooseG3089: heG846 shall baptizeG907 youG5209 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 andG2532 with fireG4442:
WhoseG3739 fanG4425 is inG1722 hisG846 handG5495, andG2532 he will throughly purgeG1245 hisG846 floorG257, andG2532 will gatherG4863 the wheatG4621 intoG1519 hisG846 garnerG596; butG1161 the chaffG892 he will burnG2618 with fireG4442 unquenchableG762.
AndG2532+G3767 manyG4183 otherG2087 thingsG4183+G3303 in his exhortationG3870 preachedG2097 he unto the peopleG2992.
ButG1161 HerodG2264 the tetrarchG5076, being reprovedG1651 byG5259 himG846 forG4012 HerodiasG2266 hisG846 brotherG80 Philip'sG5376 wifeG1135, andG2532 forG4012 allG3956 the evilsG4190 whichG3739 HerodG2264 had doneG4160,
AddedG4369 yetG2532 thisG5124 aboveG1909 allG3956, thatG2532 he shut upG2623 JohnG2491 inG1722 prisonG5438.
ForG1063 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, AmongG1722 those that are bornG1084 of womenG1135 there isG2076 notG3762 a greaterG3187 prophetG4396 thanG3187 JohnG2491 the BaptistG910: butG1161 he that is leastG3398 inG1722 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 isG2076 greater thanG3187 heG846.
AndG2532 allG3956 the peopleG2992 that heardG191 him, andG2532 the publicansG5057, justifiedG1344 GodG2316, being baptizedG907 with the baptismG908 of JohnG2491.
ButG1161 the PhariseesG5330 andG2532 lawyersG3544 rejectedG114 the counselG1012 of GodG2316 againstG1519 themselvesG1438, beingG907 notG3361 baptizedG907 ofG5259 himG846. {rejected: or, frustrated} {against…: or, within themselves}
AndG1161 the LordG2962 saidG2036, WhereuntoG5101 thenG3767 shall I likenG3666 the menG444 of thisG5026 generationG1074? andG2532 to whatG5101 are theyG1526 likeG3664?
They areG1526 likeG3664 unto childrenG3813 sittingG2521 inG1722 the marketplaceG58, andG2532 callingG4377 one to anotherG240, andG2532 sayingG3004, We have pipedG832 unto youG5213, andG2532 ye haveG3738 notG3756 dancedG3738; we have mournedG2354 to youG5213, andG2532 ye haveG2799 notG3756 weptG2799.
ForG1063 JohnG2491 the BaptistG910 cameG2064 neitherG3383 eatingG2068 breadG740 norG3383 drinkingG4095 wineG3631; andG2532 ye sayG3004, He hathG2192 a devilG1140.
The SonG5207 of manG444 is comeG2064 eatingG2068 andG2532 drinkingG4095; andG2532 ye sayG3004, BeholdG2400 a gluttonousG5314 manG444, andG2532 a winebibberG3630, a friendG5384 of publicansG5057 andG2532 sinnersG268!
ButG2532 wisdomG4678 is justifiedG1344 ofG575 allG3956 herG846 childrenG5043.
JohnG2491 bare witnessG3140 ofG4012 himG846, andG2532 criedG2896, sayingG3004, ThisG3778 was heG2258 of whomG3739 I spakeG2036, He that comethG2064 afterG3694 meG3450 is preferredG1096 beforeG1715 meG3450: forG3754 he wasG2258 beforeG4413 meG3450.
AndG2532 they askedG2065 himG846, andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, WhyG5101 baptizest thouG907 thenG3767, ifG1487 thouG4771 beG1488 notG3756 that ChristG5547, norG3777 EliasG2243, neitherG3777 that prophetG4396?
JohnG2491 answeredG611 themG846, sayingG3004, IG1473 baptizeG907 withG1722 waterG5204: butG1161 there standeth oneG2476 amongG3319 youG5216, whomG3739 yeG5210 knowG1492 notG3756;
HeG846 it isG2076, whoG3739 comingG2064 afterG3694 meG3450 is preferredG1096 beforeG1715 meG3450, whoseG3739+G846 shoe'sG5266 latchetG2438 IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 worthyG514 toG2443 unlooseG3089.
These thingsG5023 were doneG1096 inG1722 BethabaraG962 beyondG4008 JordanG2446, whereG3699 JohnG2491 wasG2258 baptizingG907.
The next dayG1887 JohnG2491 seethG991 JesusG2424 comingG2064 untoG4314 himG846, andG2532 saithG3004, BeholdG2396 the LambG286 of GodG2316, whichG3588 taketh awayG142 the sinG266 of the worldG2889. {taketh away: or, beareth}
ThisG3778 is heG2076 ofG4012 whomG3739 IG1473 saidG2036, AfterG3694 meG3450 comethG2064 a manG435 whichG3739 is preferredG1096 beforeG1715 meG3450: forG3754 he wasG2258 beforeG4413 meG3450.
And IG2504 knewG1492 himG846 notG3756: butG235 thatG2443 he should be made manifestG5319 to IsraelG2474, thereforeG1223+G5124 amG2064 IG1473 comeG2064 baptizingG907 withG1722 waterG5204.
AndG2532 JohnG2491 bare recordG3140, sayingG3004+G3754, I sawG2300 the SpiritG4151 descendingG2597 fromG1537 heavenG3772 likeG5616 a doveG4058, andG2532 it abodeG3306 uponG1909 himG846.
And IG2504 knewG1492 himG846 notG3756: butG235 he that sentG3992 meG3165 to baptizeG907 withG1722 waterG5204, the sameG1565 saidG2036 unto meG3427, UponG1909 whomG3739+G302 thou shalt seeG1492 the SpiritG4151 descendingG2597, andG2532 remainingG3306 onG1909 himG846, the sameG3778 isG2076 he which baptizethG907 withG1722 the HolyG40 GhostG4151.
And IG2504 sawG3708, andG2532 bare recordG3140 thatG3754 thisG3778 isG2076 the SonG5207 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 they cameG2064 untoG4314 JohnG2491, andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, RabbiG4461, heG3739 that wasG2258 withG3326 theeG4675 beyondG4008 JordanG2446, to whomG3739 thouG4771 barest witnessG3140, beholdG2396, the sameG3778 baptizethG907, andG2532 allG3956 men comeG2064 toG4314 himG846.
JohnG2491 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036, A manG444 canG1410+G3756 receiveG2983 nothingG3762, exceptG3362 it beG5600 givenG1325 himG846 fromG1537 heavenG3772. {receive: or, take unto himself}
YeG5210 yourselvesG846 bearG3140 meG3427 witnessG3140, thatG3754 I saidG2036, IG1473 amG1510 notG3756 the ChristG5547, butG235 thatG3754 I amG1510 sentG649 beforeG1715 himG1565.
He that hathG2192 the brideG3565 isG2076 the bridegroomG3566: butG1161 the friendG5384 of the bridegroomG3566, whichG3588 standethG2476 andG2532 hearethG191 himG846, rejoicethG5463 greatlyG5479 becauseG1223 of the bridegroom'sG3566 voiceG5456: thisG3778 myG1699 joyG5479 thereforeG3767 is fulfilledG4137.
HeG1565 mustG1163 increaseG837, butG1161 IG1691 must decreaseG1642.
He that comethG2064 from aboveG509 isG2076 aboveG1883 allG3956: he that isG5607 ofG1537 the earthG1093 isG2076 earthlyG1537+G1093, andG2532 speakethG2980 ofG1537 the earthG1093: he that comethG2064 fromG1537 heavenG3772 isG2076 aboveG1883 allG3956.
AndG2532 whatG3739 he hath seenG3708 andG2532 heardG191, thatG5124 he testifiethG3140; andG2532 no manG3762 receivethG2983 hisG846 testimonyG3141.
He that hath receivedG2983 hisG846 testimonyG3141 hath set to his sealG4972 thatG3754 GodG2316 isG2076 trueG227.
ForG1063 he whomG3739 GodG2316 hath sentG649 speakethG2980 the wordsG4487 of GodG2316: forG1063 GodG2316 givethG1325 notG3756 the SpiritG4151 byG1537 measureG3358 unto him.
The FatherG3962 lovethG25 the SonG5207, andG2532 hath givenG1325 all thingsG3956 intoG1722 hisG846 handG5495.
He that believethG4100 onG1519 the SonG5207 hathG2192 everlastingG166 lifeG2222: andG1161 he that believeth notG544 the SonG5207 shallG3700 notG3756 seeG3700 lifeG2222; butG235 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 abidethG3306 onG1909 himG846.
