Behold, I will sendH7971 my messengerH4397, and he shall prepareH6437 the wayH1870 beforeH6440 me: and the LordH113, whom ye seekH1245, shall suddenlyH6597 comeH935 to his templeH1964, even the messengerH4397 of the covenantH1285, whom ye delightH2655 in: behold, he shall comeH935, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635.
Behold, I will sendH7971 you ElijahH452 the prophetH5030 beforeH6440 the comingH935 of the greatH1419 and dreadfulH3372 dayH3117 of the LORDH3068:
Repent yeG3340 thereforeG3767, andG2532 be convertedG1994, thatG1519 yourG5216 sinsG266 may be blotted outG1813, whenG3704 the timesG2540 of refreshingG403 shall comeG302+G2064 fromG575 the presenceG4383 of the LordG2962;
AndG2532 he shall sendG649 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, which before was preachedG4296 unto youG5213:
WhomG3739 the heavenG3772+G3303 mustG1163 receiveG1209 untilG891 the timesG5550 of restitutionG605 of all thingsG3956, whichG3739 GodG2316 hath spokenG2980 byG1223 the mouthG4750 of allG3956 hisG846 holyG40 prophetsG4396 sinceG575 the world beganG165.
ForG1063 MosesG3475 trulyG3303 saidG2036 untoG4314 the fathersG3962+G3754, A prophetG4396 shallG450 the LordG2962 yourG5216 GodG2316 raise upG450 unto youG5213 ofG1537 yourG5216 brethrenG80, likeG5613 unto meG1691; himG846 shall ye hearG191 inG2596 all thingsG3956 whatsoeverG3745+G302 he shall sayG2980 untoG4314 youG5209.
Ye stiffneckedG4644 andG2532 uncircumcisedG564 in heartG2588 andG2532 earsG3775, yeG5210 doG496 alwaysG104 resistG496 the HolyG40 GhostG4151: asG5613 yourG5216 fathersG3962 did, soG2532 do yeG5210.
ForbiddingG2967 usG2248 to speakG2980 to the GentilesG1484 thatG2443 they might be savedG4982, toG1519 fill upG378 theirG846 sinsG266 alwayG3842: forG1161 the wrathG3709 is comeG5348 uponG1909 themG846 toG1519 the uttermostG5056.
KnownG1110 unto GodG2316 areG2076 allG3956 hisG846 worksG2041 fromG575 the beginning of the worldG165.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 went outG1831, and departedG4198 fromG575 the templeG2411: andG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3101 cameG4334 to him for to shewG1925 himG846 the buildingsG3619 of the templeG2411.
AndG1161 JesusG2424 saidG2036 unto themG846, See yeG991 notG3756 allG3956 these thingsG5023? verilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, There shallG863 notG3364 be leftG863 hereG5602 one stoneG3037 uponG1909 anotherG3037, thatG3739 shallG2647 notG3364 be thrown downG2647.
AndG1161 as heG846 satG2521 uponG1909 the mountG3735 of OlivesG1636, the disciplesG3101 cameG4334 unto himG846 privatelyG2596+G2398, sayingG3004, TellG2036 usG2254, whenG4219 shallG2071 these thingsG5023 beG2071? andG2532 whatG5101 shall be the signG4592 of thyG4674 comingG3952, andG2532 of the endG4930 of the worldG165?
AndG2532 JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto themG846, Take heedG991 that noG3361 manG5100 deceiveG4105 youG5209.
ForG1063 manyG4183 shall comeG2064 inG1909 myG3450 nameG3686, sayingG3004, IG1473 amG1510 ChristG5547; andG2532 shall deceiveG4105 manyG4183.
AndG1161 ye shallG3195 hearG191 of warsG4171 andG2532 rumoursG189 of warsG4171: seeG3708 that ye beG2360 notG3361 troubledG2360: forG1063 allG3956 these things mustG1163 come to passG1096, butG235 the endG5056 isG2076 not yetG3768.
ForG1063 nationG1484 shall riseG1453 againstG1909 nationG1484, andG2532 kingdomG932 againstG1909 kingdomG932: andG2532 there shall beG2071 faminesG3042, andG2532 pestilencesG3061, andG2532 earthquakesG4578, in diversG2596 placesG5117.
AllG1161+G3956 theseG5023 are the beginningG746 of sorrowsG5604.
ThenG5119 shall they deliverG3860 youG5209 upG3860 toG1519 be afflictedG2347, andG2532 shall killG615 youG5209: andG2532 ye shall beG2071 hatedG3404 ofG5259 allG3956 nationsG1484 forG1223 myG3450 name's sakeG3686.
AndG2532 thenG5119 shall manyG4183 be offendedG4624, andG2532 shall betrayG3860 one anotherG240, andG2532 shall hateG3404 one anotherG240.
AndG2532 manyG4183 false prophetsG5578 shall riseG1453, andG2532 shall deceiveG4105 manyG4183.
AndG2532 becauseG1223 iniquityG458 shall aboundG4129, the loveG26 of manyG4183 shall wax coldG5594.
ButG1161 he that shall endureG5278 untoG1519 the endG5056, the sameG3778 shall be savedG4982.
AndG2532 thisG5124 gospelG2098 of the kingdomG932 shall be preachedG2784 inG1722 allG3650 the worldG3625 forG1519 a witnessG3142 unto allG3956 nationsG1484; andG2532 thenG5119 shall the endG5056 comeG2240.
WhenG3752 ye thereforeG3767 shall seeG1492 the abominationG946 of desolationG2050, spoken ofG4483 byG1223 DanielG1158 the prophetG4396, standG2476 inG1722 the holyG40 placeG5117, (whoso readethG314, let him understandG3539:)
ThenG5119 let them which be inG1722 JudaeaG2449 fleeG5343 intoG1909 the mountainsG3735:
Let him which is onG1909 the housetopG1430 notG3361 come downG2597 to takeG142 any thingG5100 out ofG1537 hisG846 houseG3614:
NeitherG3361 let him which is inG1722 the fieldG68 returnG1994 backG3694 to takeG142 hisG846 clothesG2440.
AndG1161 woeG3759 unto them that areG2192 withG1722 childG1064, andG2532 to them that give suckG2337 inG1722 thoseG1565 daysG2250!
ButG1161 pray yeG4336 thatG3363 yourG5216 flightG5437 beG1096 notG3363 in the winterG5494, neitherG3366 onG1722 the sabbath dayG4521:
ForG1063 thenG5119 shall beG2071 greatG3173 tribulationG2347, such asG3634 wasG1096 notG3756 sinceG575 the beginningG746 of the worldG2889 to thisG2193 timeG3568, noG3761, nor everG3364 shall beG1096.
AndG2532 exceptG1508 thoseG1565 daysG2250 should be shortenedG2856, thereG3756 shouldG302 noG3956 fleshG4561 be savedG4982: butG1161 forG1223 the elect's sakeG1588 thoseG1565 daysG2250 shall be shortenedG2856.
ThenG5119 ifG1437 any manG5100 shall sayG2036 unto youG5213, LoG2400, hereG5602 is ChristG5547, orG2228 thereG5602; believeG4100 it notG3361.
ForG1063 there shall ariseG1453 false ChristsG5580, andG2532 false prophetsG5578, andG2532 shall shewG1325 greatG3173 signsG4592 andG2532 wondersG5059; insomuch thatG5620, ifG1487 it were possibleG1415, they shall deceiveG4105 the veryG2532 electG1588.
BeholdG2400, I have toldG4280 youG5213 beforeG4280.
WhereforeG3767 ifG1437 they shall sayG2036 unto youG5213, BeholdG2400, he isG2076 inG1722 the desertG2048; goG1831 notG3361 forthG1831: beholdG2400, he is inG1722 the secret chambersG5009; believeG4100 it notG3361.
ForG1063 asG5618 the lightningG796 comethG1831 out ofG575 the eastG395, andG2532 shinethG5316 even untoG2193 the westG1424; soG3779 shallG2071 alsoG2532 the comingG3952 of the SonG5207 of manG444 beG2071.
ForG1063 wheresoeverG1437+G3699 the carcaseG4430 isG5600, thereG1563 willG4863 the eaglesG105 be gathered togetherG4863.
ImmediatelyG1161+G2112 afterG3326 the tribulationG2347 of thoseG1565 daysG2250 shall the sunG2246 be darkenedG4654, andG2532 the moonG4582 shallG1325 notG3756 giveG1325 herG846 lightG5338, andG2532 the starsG792 shall fallG4098 fromG575 heavenG3772, andG2532 the powersG1411 of the heavensG3772 shall be shakenG4531:
AndG2532 thenG5119 shall appearG5316 the signG4592 of the SonG5207 of manG444 inG1722 heavenG3772: andG2532 thenG5119 shallG2875 allG3956 the tribesG5443 of the earthG1093 mournG2875, andG2532 they shall seeG3700 the SonG5207 of manG444 comingG2064 inG1909 the cloudsG3507 of heavenG3772 withG3326 powerG1411 andG2532 greatG4183 gloryG1391.
AndG2532 he shall sendG649 hisG846 angelsG32 withG3326 a greatG3173 soundG5456 of a trumpetG4536, andG2532 they shall gather togetherG1996 hisG846 electG1588 fromG1537 the fourG5064 windsG417, fromG575 one endG206 of heavenG3772 toG2193 the otherG206+G846. {with…: or, with a trumpet, and a great voice}
NowG1161 learnG3129 a parableG3850 ofG575 the fig treeG4808; WhenG3752 hisG846 branchG2798 isG1096 yetG2235 tenderG527, andG2532 putteth forthG1631 leavesG5444, ye knowG1097 thatG3754 summerG2330 is nighG1451:
SoG3779 likewiseG2532 yeG5210, whenG3752 ye shall seeG1492 allG3956 these thingsG5023, knowG1097 thatG3754 it isG2076 nearG1451, even atG1909 the doorsG2374. {it: or, he}
VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThisG3778 generationG1074 shall notG3364 passG3928, tillG302+G2193 allG3956 these thingsG5023 be fulfilledG1096.
HeavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1093 shall pass awayG3928, butG1161 myG3450 wordsG3056 shallG3928 notG3364 pass awayG3928.
ButG1161 ofG4012 thatG1565 dayG2250 andG2532 hourG5610 knowethG1492 noG3762 man, no, notG3761 the angelsG32 of heavenG3772, butG1508 myG3450 FatherG3962 onlyG3441.
ButG1161 asG5618 the daysG2250 of NoeG3575 were, soG3779 shallG2071 alsoG2532 the comingG3952 of the SonG5207 of manG444 beG2071.
ForG1063 asG5618 inG1722 the daysG2250 that wereG2258 beforeG4253 the floodG2627 they were eatingG5176 andG2532 drinkingG4095, marryingG1060 andG2532 giving in marriageG1547, untilG891 the dayG2250 thatG3739 NoeG3575 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the arkG2787,
AndG2532 knewG1097 notG3756 untilG2193 the floodG2627 cameG2064, andG2532 tookG142 them allG537 awayG142; soG3779 shallG2071 alsoG2532 the comingG3952 of the SonG5207 of manG444 beG2071.
ThenG5119 shallG2071 twoG1417 beG2071 inG1722 the fieldG68; the oneG1520 shall be takenG3880, andG2532 the otherG1520 leftG863.
TwoG1417 women shall be grindingG229 atG1722 the millG3459; the oneG3391 shall be takenG3880, andG2532 the otherG3391 leftG863.
WatchG1127 thereforeG3767: forG3754 ye knowG1492 notG3756 whatG4169 hourG5610 yourG5216 LordG2962 doth comeG2064.
ButG1161 knowG1097 thisG1565, thatG3754 ifG1487 the goodman of the houseG3617 had knownG1492 in whatG4169 watchG5438 the thiefG2812 would comeG2064, he wouldG302 have watchedG1127, andG2532 wouldG302 notG3756 have sufferedG1439 hisG846 houseG3614 to be broken upG1358.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 beG1096 yeG5210 alsoG2532 readyG2092: forG3754 in suchG3739 an hourG5610 as ye thinkG1380 notG3756 the SonG5207 of manG444 comethG2064.
WhoG5101 thenG686 isG2076 a faithfulG4103 andG2532 wiseG5429 servantG1401, whomG3739 hisG846 lordG2962 hath made rulerG2525 overG1909 hisG846 householdG2322, to giveG1325 themG846 meatG5160 inG1722 due seasonG2540?
BlessedG3107 is thatG1565 servantG1401, whomG3739 hisG846 lordG2962 when he comethG2064 shall findG2147 soG3779 doingG4160.
VerilyG281 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 he shall makeG2525 himG846 rulerG2525 overG1909 allG3956 hisG846 goodsG5224.
But andG1161 ifG1437 thatG1565 evilG2556 servantG1401 shall sayG2036 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588, MyG3450 lordG2962 delayethG5549 his comingG2064;
AndG2532 shall beginG756 to smiteG5180 his fellowservantsG4889, andG1161 to eatG2068 andG2532 drinkG4095 withG3326 the drunkenG3184;
The lordG2962 of thatG1565 servantG1401 shall comeG2240 inG1722 a dayG2250 whenG3739 he lookethG4328 notG3756 for him, andG2532 inG1722 an hourG5610 thatG3739 he isG1097 notG3756 aware ofG1097,
AndG2532 shall cutG1371 himG846 asunderG1371, andG2532 appointG5087 him hisG846 portionG3313 withG3326 the hypocritesG5273: thereG1563 shall beG2071 weepingG2805 andG2532 gnashingG1030 of teethG3599. {cut…: or, cut him off}
ThenG1161 said heG2036 untoG4314 the disciplesG3101, It isG2076 impossibleG418 butG3361 that offencesG4625 will comeG2064: butG1161 woeG3759 unto him, throughG1223 whomG3739 they comeG2064!
It were betterG3081 for himG846 thatG1487 a millstoneG3458+G3684 were hangedG4029 aboutG4012 hisG846 neckG5137, andG2532 he castG4496 intoG1519 the seaG2281, thanG2228 thatG2443 he should offendG4624 oneG1520 of theseG5130 little onesG3398.
Take heedG4337 to yourselvesG1438: IfG1161+G1437 thyG4675 brotherG80 trespassG264 againstG1519 theeG4571, rebukeG2008 himG846; andG2532 ifG1437 he repentG3340, forgiveG863 himG846.
AndG2532 ifG1437 he trespassG264 againstG1519 theeG4571 seven timesG2034 in a dayG2250, andG2532 seven timesG2034 in a dayG2250 turn againG1994 toG1909 theeG4571, sayingG3004, I repentG3340; thou shalt forgiveG863 himG846.
AndG2532 the apostlesG652 saidG2036 unto the LordG2962, IncreaseG4369 ourG2254 faithG4102.
AndG1161 the LordG2962 saidG2036, IfG1487 ye hadG2192 faithG4102 asG5613 a grainG2848 of mustard seedG4615, ye mightG302 sayG3004 unto thisG5026 sycamineG4807 tree, Be thou plucked up by the rootG1610, andG2532 be thou plantedG5452 inG1722 the seaG2281; andG2532 it shouldG302 obeyG5219 youG5213.
ButG1161 whichG5101 ofG1537 youG5216, havingG2192 a servantG1401 plowingG722 orG2228 feeding cattleG4165, will sayG2046 unto himG3739 by and byG2112, when he is comeG1525 fromG1537 the fieldG68, GoG3928 and sit down to meatG377?
AndG235 will notG3780 rather sayG2046 unto himG846, Make readyG2090 wherewithG5101 I may supG1172, andG2532 gird thyselfG4024, and serveG1247 meG3427, tillG2193 I have eatenG5315 andG2532 drunkenG4095; andG2532 afterwardG3326+G5023 thouG4771 shalt eatG5315 andG2532 drinkG4095?
Doth heG2192 thankG5485 thatG1565 servantG1401 becauseG3754 he didG4160 the things that were commandedG1299 himG846? I trowG1380 notG3756.
SoG3779 likewiseG2532 yeG5210, whenG3752 ye shall have doneG4160 allG3956 those things which are commandedG1299 youG5213, sayG3004+G3754, We areG2070 unprofitableG888 servantsG1401+G3754: we have doneG4160 that whichG3739 was our dutyG3784 to doG4160.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, asG1722 heG846 wentG4198 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, thatG2532 heG846 passedG1330 throughG1223 the midstG3319 of SamariaG4540 andG2532 GalileeG1056.
AndG2532 as heG846 enteredG1525 intoG1519 a certainG5100 villageG2968, there metG528 himG846 tenG1176 menG435 that were lepersG3015, whichG3739 stoodG2476 afar offG4207:
AndG2532 theyG846 lifted upG142 their voicesG5456, and saidG3004, JesusG2424, MasterG1988, have mercyG1653 on usG2248.
AndG2532 when he sawG1492 them, he saidG2036 unto themG846, GoG4198 shewG1925 yourselvesG1438 unto the priestsG2409. AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that, as theyG846 wentG5217+G1722, they were cleansedG2511.
AndG1161 oneG1520 ofG1537 themG846, when he sawG1492 thatG3754 he was healedG2390, turned backG5290, and withG3326 a loudG3173 voiceG5456 glorifiedG1392 GodG2316,
AndG2532 fell downG4098 onG1909 his faceG4383 atG3844 hisG846 feetG4228, givingG2168 himG846 thanksG2168: andG2532 heG846 wasG2258 a SamaritanG4541.
AndG1161 JesusG2424 answeringG611 saidG2036, Were thereG2511 notG3780 tenG1176 cleansedG2511? butG1161 whereG4226 are the nineG1767?
There areG2147 notG3756 foundG2147 that returnedG5290 to giveG1325 gloryG1391 to GodG2316, saveG1508 thisG3778 strangerG241.
AndG2532 he saidG2036 unto himG846, AriseG450, go thy wayG4198: thyG4675 faithG4102 hath madeG4982 theeG4571 wholeG4982.
AndG1161 when he was demandedG1905 ofG5259 the PhariseesG5330, whenG4219 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 should comeG2064, he answeredG611 themG846 andG2532 saidG2036, The kingdomG932 of GodG2316 comethG2064 notG3756 withG3326 observationG3907: {with…: or, with outward shew}
NeitherG3761 shall they sayG2046, LoG2400 hereG5602! orG2228, loG2400 thereG1563! forG1063, beholdG2400, the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 isG2076 withinG1787 youG5216. {within you: or, among you}
AndG1161 he saidG2036 untoG4314 the disciplesG3101, The daysG2250 will comeG2064, whenG3753 ye shall desireG1937 to seeG1492 oneG3391 of the daysG2250 of the SonG5207 of manG444, andG2532 ye shallG3700 notG3756 seeG3700 it.
AndG2532 they shall sayG2046 to youG5213, SeeG2400 hereG5602; orG2228, seeG2400 thereG1563: goG565 notG3361 afterG565 them, norG3366 followG1377 them.
ForG1063 asG5618 the lightningG796, that lightenethG797 out ofG1537 the one part underG5259 heavenG3772, shinethG2989 untoG1519 the other part underG5259 heavenG3772; soG3779 shall alsoG2532 the SonG5207 of manG444 beG2071 inG1722 hisG846 dayG2250.
ButG1161 firstG4412 mustG1163 heG846 sufferG3958 many thingsG4183, andG2532 be rejectedG593 ofG575 thisG5026 generationG1074.
AndG2532 asG2531 it wasG1096 inG1722 the daysG2250 of NoeG3575, soG3779 shall it beG2071 alsoG2532 inG1722 the daysG2250 of the SonG5207 of manG444.
They did eatG2068, they drankG4095, they married wivesG1060, they were given in marriageG1547, untilG891 the dayG2250 thatG3739 NoeG3575 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the arkG2787, andG2532 the floodG2627 cameG2064, andG2532 destroyedG622 them allG537.
LikewiseG3668 alsoG2532 asG5613 it wasG1096 inG1722 the daysG2250 of LotG3091; they did eatG2068, they drankG4095, they boughtG59, they soldG4453, they plantedG5452, they buildedG3618;
ButG3739+G1161 the same dayG2250 that LotG3091 wentG1831 out ofG575 SodomG4670 it rainedG1026 fireG4442 andG2532 brimstoneG2303 fromG575 heavenG3772, andG2532 destroyedG622 them allG537.
EvenG2596 thusG5024 shall it beG2071 in the dayG3739+G2250 when the SonG5207 of manG444 is revealedG601.
InG1722 thatG1565 dayG2250, he whichG3739 shall beG2071 uponG1909 the housetopG1430, andG2532 hisG846 stuffG4632 inG1722 the houseG3614, letG2597 him notG3361 come downG2597 to takeG142 itG846 awayG142: andG2532 he that is inG1722 the fieldG68, let himG1994 likewiseG3668 notG3361 returnG1994 backG1519+G3694.
RememberG3421 Lot'sG3091 wifeG1135.
WhosoeverG3739+G1437 shall seekG2212 to saveG4982 hisG846 lifeG5590 shall loseG622 itG846; andG2532 whosoeverG3739+G1437 shall loseG622 hisG846 life shall preserveG2225 itG846.
I tellG3004 youG5213, in thatG5026 nightG3571 there shall beG2071 twoG1417 men inG1909 oneG3391 bedG2825; the oneG1520 shall be takenG3880, andG2532 the otherG2087 shall be leftG863.
TwoG1417 women shall beG2071 grindingG229 togetherG846+G1909; the oneG3391 shall be takenG3880, andG2532 the otherG2087 leftG863.
TwoG1417 men shall beG2071 inG1722 the fieldG68; the oneG1520 shall be takenG3880, andG2532 the otherG2087 leftG863. {this verse is not found in most of the Greek copies}
AndG2532 they answeredG611 and saidG3004 unto himG846, WhereG4226, LordG2962? AndG1161 he saidG2036 unto themG846, WheresoeverG3699 the bodyG4983 is, thitherG1563 willG4863 the eaglesG105 be gathered togetherG4863.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, whenG3753 JesusG2424 had made an endG5055 of commandingG1299 hisG846 twelveG1427 disciplesG3101, he departedG3327 thenceG1564 to teachG1321 andG2532 to preachG2784 inG1722 theirG846 citiesG4172.
NowG1161 when JohnG2491 had heardG191 inG1722 the prisonG1201 the worksG2041 of ChristG5547, he sentG3992 twoG1417 of hisG846 disciplesG3101,
And saidG2036 unto himG846, ArtG1488 thouG4771 he that should comeG2064, orG2228 do we lookG4328 for anotherG2087?
JesusG2424 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036 unto themG846, GoG4198 and shewG518 JohnG2491 againG518 those things whichG3739 ye do hearG191 andG2532 seeG991:
The blindG5185 receive their sightG308, andG2532 the lameG5560 walkG4043, the lepersG3015 are cleansedG2511, andG2532 the deafG2974 hearG191, the deadG3498 are raised upG1453, andG2532 the poorG4434 have the gospel preached to themG2097.
AndG2532 blessedG3107 isG2076 he, whosoeverG3739 shallG4624 notG3362 be offendedG4624 inG1722 meG1698.
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 hathG2192 earsG3775 to hearG191, let him hearG191.
ButG1161 whereuntoG5101 shall I likenG3666 thisG5026 generationG1074? It isG2076 likeG3664 unto childrenG3808 sittingG2521 inG1722 the marketsG58, andG2532 callingG4377 unto theirG846 fellowsG2083,
AndG2532 sayingG3004, We have pipedG832 unto youG5213, andG2532 ye haveG3738 notG3756 dancedG3738; we have mournedG2354 unto youG5213, andG2532 ye haveG2875 notG3756 lamentedG2875.
ForG1063 JohnG2491 cameG2064 neitherG3383 eatingG2068 norG3383 drinkingG4095, andG2532 they sayG3004, He hathG2192 a devilG1140.
The SonG5207 of manG444 cameG2064 eatingG2068 andG2532 drinkingG4095, andG2532 they sayG3004, BeholdG2400 a manG444 gluttonousG5314, andG2532 a winebibberG3630, a friendG5384 of publicansG5057 andG2532 sinnersG268. ButG2532 wisdomG4678 is justifiedG1344 ofG575 herG846 childrenG5043.
ThenG5119 began heG756 to upbraidG3679 the citiesG4172 whereinG1722+G3739 mostG4118 of hisG846 mighty worksG1411 were doneG1096, becauseG3754 they repentedG3340 notG3756:
WoeG3759 unto theeG4671, ChorazinG5523! woeG3759 unto theeG4671, BethsaidaG966! forG3754 ifG1487 the mighty worksG1411, whichG3588 were doneG1096 inG1722 youG5213, had been doneG1096 inG1722 TyreG5184 andG2532 SidonG4605, they would have repentedG3340 long agoG302+G3819 inG1722 sackclothG4526 andG2532 ashesG4700.
ButG4133 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, It shall beG2071 more tolerableG414 for TyreG5184 andG2532 SidonG4605 atG1722 the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920, thanG2228 for youG5213.
AndG2532 thouG4771, CapernaumG2584, whichG3588 art exaltedG5312 untoG2193 heavenG3772, shalt be brought downG2601 toG2193 hellG86: forG3754 ifG1487 the mighty worksG1411, whichG3588 have been doneG1096 inG1722 theeG4671, had been doneG1096 inG1722 SodomG4670, it would have remainedG302+G3306 untilG3360 this dayG4594.
ButG4133 I sayG3004 unto youG5213, ThatG3754 it shall beG2071 more tolerableG414 for the landG1093 of SodomG4670 inG1722 the dayG2250 of judgmentG2920, thanG2228 for theeG4671.
AtG1722 thatG1565 timeG2540 JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG2036, I thankG1843 theeG4671, O FatherG3962, LordG2962 of heavenG3772 andG2532 earthG1093, becauseG3754 thou hast hidG613 these thingsG5023 fromG575 the wiseG4680 andG2532 prudentG4908, andG2532 hast revealedG601 themG846 unto babesG3516.
Even soG3483, FatherG3962: forG3754 soG3779 it seemedG1096 goodG2107 in thyG4675 sightG1715.
All thingsG3956 are deliveredG3860 unto meG3427 ofG5259 myG3450 FatherG3962: andG2532 no manG3762 knowethG1921 the SonG5207, butG1508 the FatherG3962; neitherG3761 knowethG1921 any manG5100 the FatherG3962, saveG1508 the SonG5207, and heG2532 toG3739 whomsoeverG1437 the SonG5207 willG1014 revealG601 him.
ComeG1205 untoG4314 meG3165, allG3956 ye that labourG2872 andG2532 are heavy ladenG5412, and IG2504 will giveG373 youG5209 restG373.
TakeG142 myG3450 yokeG2218 uponG1909 youG5209, andG2532 learnG3129 ofG575 meG1700; forG3754 I amG1510 meekG4235 andG2532 lowlyG5011 in heartG2588: andG2532 ye shall findG2147 restG372 unto yourG5216 soulsG5590.
ForG1063 myG3450 yokeG2218 is easyG5543, andG2532 myG3450 burdenG5413 isG2076 lightG1645.
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.
AndG2532 immediatelyG2117 the SpiritG4151 drivethG1544 himG846 intoG1519 the wildernessG2048.
AndG2532 he wasG2258 thereG1563 inG1722 the wildernessG2048 fortyG5062 daysG2250, temptedG3985 ofG5259 SatanG4567; andG2532 wasG2258 withG3326 the wild beastsG2342; andG2532 the angelsG32 ministeredG1247 unto himG846.
NowG1161 afterG3326 that JohnG2491 was put in prisonG3860, JesusG2424 cameG2064 intoG1519 GalileeG1056, preachingG2784 the gospelG2098 of the kingdomG932 of GodG2316,
AndG2532 sayingG3004+G3754, The timeG2540 is fulfilledG4137, andG2532 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 is at handG1448: repent yeG3340, andG2532 believeG4100+G1722 the gospelG2098.
NowG1161 as he walkedG4043 byG3844 the seaG2281 of GalileeG1056, he sawG1492 SimonG4613 andG2532 AndrewG406 hisG846 brotherG80 castingG906 a netG293 intoG1722 the seaG2281: forG1063 they wereG2258 fishersG231.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 saidG2036 unto themG846, Come yeG1205 afterG3694 meG3450, andG2532 I will makeG4160 youG5209 to becomeG1096 fishersG231 of menG444.
AndG2532 straightwayG2112 they forsookG863 theirG846 netsG1350, and followedG190 himG846.
AndG2532 when he had goneG4260 a littleG3641 furtherG4260 thenceG1564, he sawG1492 JamesG2385 the sonG3588 of ZebedeeG2199, andG2532 JohnG2491 hisG846 brotherG80, whoG846 alsoG2532 were inG1722 the shipG4143 mendingG2675 their netsG1350.
AndG2532 straightwayG2112 he calledG2564 themG846: andG2532 they leftG863 theirG846 fatherG3962 ZebedeeG2199 inG1722 the shipG4143 withG3326 the hired servantsG3411, and wentG565 afterG3694 himG846.
AndG2532 they wentG1531 intoG1519 CapernaumG2584; andG2532 straightwayG2112 on the sabbath dayG4521 he enteredG1525 intoG1519 the synagogueG4864, and taughtG1321.
AndG2532 they were astonishedG1605 atG1909 hisG846 doctrineG1322: forG1063 he taughtG1321+G2258 themG846 asG5613 one that hadG2192 authorityG1849, andG2532 notG3756 asG5613 the scribesG1122.
AndG2532 there wasG2258 inG1722 theirG846 synagogueG4864 a manG444 withG1722 an uncleanG169 spiritG4151; andG2532 he cried outG349,
SayingG3004, Let us aloneG1436; whatG5101 have weG2254 to doG2532 with theeG4671, thou JesusG2424 of NazarethG3479? art thou comeG2064 to destroyG622 usG2248? I knowG1492 theeG4571 whoG5101 thou artG1488, the Holy OneG40 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 rebukedG2008 himG846, sayingG3004, Hold thy peaceG5392, andG2532 comeG1831 out ofG1537 himG846.
AndG2532 when the uncleanG169 spiritG4151 had tornG4682 himG846, andG2532 criedG2896 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, he cameG1831 out ofG1537 himG846.
AndG2532 they wereG2284 allG3956 amazedG2284, insomuch thatG5620 they questionedG4802 amongG4314 themselvesG846, sayingG3004, What thingG5101 isG2076 thisG3778? whatG5101 newG2537 doctrineG1322 is thisG5124? forG3754 withG2596 authorityG1849 commandethG2004 he evenG2532 the uncleanG169 spiritsG4151, andG2532 they do obeyG5219 himG846.
AndG1161 immediatelyG2117 hisG846 fameG189 spread abroadG1831 throughoutG1519 allG3650 the region round aboutG4066 GalileeG1056.
AndG2532 forthwithG2112, when they were comeG1831 out ofG1537 the synagogueG4864, they enteredG2064 intoG1519 the houseG3614 of SimonG4613 andG2532 AndrewG406, withG3326 JamesG2385 andG2532 JohnG2491.
ButG1161 Simon'sG4613 wife's motherG3994 layG2621 sick of a feverG4445, andG2532 anonG2112 they tellG3004 himG846 ofG4012 herG846.
AndG2532 he cameG4334 and tookG2902 herG846 by the handG5495, and liftedG1453 herG846 upG1453; andG2532 immediatelyG2112 the feverG4446 leftG863 herG846, andG2532 she ministeredG1247 unto themG846.
AndG1161 atG1096 evenG3798, whenG3753 the sunG2246 did setG1416, they broughtG5342 untoG4314 himG846 allG3956 that wereG2192 diseasedG2560, andG2532 them that were possessed with devilsG1139.
AndG2532 allG3650 the cityG4172 wasG2258 gathered togetherG1996 atG4314 the doorG2374.
AndG2532 he healedG2323 manyG4183 that wereG2192 sickG2560 of diversG4164 diseasesG3554, andG2532 cast outG1544 manyG4183 devilsG1140; andG2532 sufferedG863 notG3756 the devilsG1140 to speakG2980, becauseG3754 they knewG1492 himG846. {to speak…: or, to say that they knew him}
AndG2532 in the morningG4404, rising upG450 a great whileG3029 before dayG1773, he went outG1831, andG2532 departedG565 intoG1519 a solitaryG2048 placeG5117, and thereG2546 prayedG4336.
AndG2532 SimonG4613 andG2532 they that were withG3326 himG846 followed afterG2614 himG846.
AndG2532 when they had foundG2147 himG846, they saidG3004 unto himG846+G3754, AllG3956 men seekG2212 for theeG4571.
AndG2532 he saidG3004 unto themG846, Let us goG71 intoG1519 the nextG2192 townsG2969, thatG2443 I may preachG2784 there alsoG2546: forG1063 thereforeG1519+G5124 came I forthG1831.
AndG2532 he preachedG2784+G2258 inG1722 theirG846 synagoguesG4864 throughoutG1519 allG3650 GalileeG1056, andG2532 cast outG1544 devilsG1140.
AndG2532 there cameG2064 a leperG3015 toG4314 himG846, beseechingG3870 himG846, andG2532 kneeling downG1120 to himG846, andG2532 sayingG3004 unto himG846+G3754, IfG1437 thou wiltG2309, thou canstG1410 makeG2511 meG3165 cleanG2511.
AndG1161 JesusG2424, moved with compassionG4697, put forthG1614 his handG5495, and touchedG680 himG846, andG2532 saithG3004 unto himG846, I willG2309; be thou cleanG2511.
AndG2532 as soon as heG846 had spokenG2036, immediatelyG2112 the leprosyG3014 departedG565 fromG575 himG846, andG2532 he was cleansedG2511.
AndG2532 he straitly chargedG1690 himG846, and forthwithG2112 sentG1544 himG846 awayG1544;
AndG2532 saithG3004 unto himG846, SeeG3708 thou sayG2036 nothingG3367 to any manG3367: butG235 go thy wayG5217, shewG1166 thyselfG4572 to the priestG2409, andG2532 offerG4374 forG4012 thyG4675 cleansingG2512 those thingsG3739 which MosesG3475 commandedG4367, forG1519 a testimonyG3142 unto themG846.
ButG1161 he went outG1831, and beganG756 to publishG2784 it muchG4183, andG2532 to blaze abroadG1310 the matterG3056, insomuch thatG5620 JesusG846 couldG1410 no moreG3371 openlyG5320 enterG1525 intoG1519 the cityG4172, butG235 wasG2258 withoutG1854 inG1722 desertG2048 placesG5117: andG2532 they cameG2064 toG4314 himG846 from every quarterG3836.
ForasmuchG1895 as manyG4183 have taken in handG2021 to set forth in orderG392 a declarationG1335 ofG4012 those thingsG4229 which are most surely believedG4135 amongG1722 usG2254,
EvenG2531 as they deliveredG3860 them unto usG2254, whichG3588 fromG575 the beginningG746 wereG1096 eyewitnessesG845, andG2532 ministersG5257 of the wordG3056;
It seemedG1380 good to me alsoG2504, having had perfectG199 understandingG3877 of all thingsG3956 from the very firstG509, to writeG1125 unto theeG4671 in orderG2517, most excellentG2903 TheophilusG2321,
ThatG2443 thou mightest knowG1921 the certaintyG803 ofG4012 those thingsG3056, whereinG3739 thou hast been instructedG2727.
There wasG1096 inG1722 the daysG2250 of HerodG2264, the kingG935 of JudaeaG2449, a certainG5100 priestG2409 namedG3686 ZachariasG2197, ofG1537 the courseG2183 of AbiaG7: andG2532 hisG846 wifeG1135 was ofG1537 the daughtersG2364 of AaronG2, andG2532 herG846 nameG3686 was ElisabethG1665.
AndG1161 they wereG2258 bothG297 righteousG1342 beforeG1799 GodG2316, walkingG4198 inG1722 allG3956 the commandmentsG1785 andG2532 ordinancesG1345 of the LordG2962 blamelessG273.
AndG2532 theyG846 hadG2258 noG3756 childG5043, becauseG2530 that ElisabethG1665 wasG2258 barrenG4723, andG2532 theyG846 bothG297 wereG2258 now well strickenG4260 inG1722 yearsG2250.
AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that whileG1722 heG846 executed the priest's officeG2407 beforeG1725 GodG2316 inG1722 the orderG5010 of hisG846 courseG2183,
AccordingG2596 to the customG1485 of the priest's officeG2405, his lotG2975 was to burn incenseG2370 when he wentG1525 intoG1519 the templeG3485 of the LordG2962.
AndG2532 the wholeG3956 multitudeG4128 of the peopleG2992 wereG2258 prayingG4336 withoutG1854 at the timeG5610 of incenseG2368.
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}
AndG2532 ZachariasG2197 saidG2036 untoG4314 the angelG32, WherebyG2596+G5101 shall I knowG1097 thisG5124? forG1063 IG1473 amG1510 an old manG4246, andG2532 myG3450 wifeG1135 well strickenG4260 inG1722 yearsG2250+G846.
AndG2532 the angelG32 answeringG611 saidG2036 unto himG846, IG1473 amG1510 GabrielG1043, that standG3936 in the presenceG1799 of GodG2316; andG2532 am sentG649 to speakG2980 untoG4314 theeG4571, andG2532 to shewG2097 theeG4671 theseG5023 glad tidingsG2097.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, thouG2071 shalt be dumbG4623, andG2532 notG3361 ableG1410 to speakG2980, untilG891 the dayG2250 thatG3739 these thingsG5023 shall be performedG1096, becauseG473+G3739 thou believestG4100 notG3756 myG3450 wordsG3056, whichG3748 shall be fulfilledG4137 inG1519 theirG846 seasonG2540.
AndG2532 the peopleG2992 waitedG2258+G4328 for ZachariasG2197, andG2532 marvelledG2296 thatG1722 heG846 tarried so longG5549 inG1722 the templeG3485.
AndG1161 when he came outG1831, he couldG1410 notG3756 speakG2980 unto themG846: andG2532 they perceivedG1921 thatG3754 he had seenG3708 a visionG3701 inG1722 the templeG3485: forG2532 heG846 beckonedG2258+G1269 unto themG846, andG2532 remainedG1265 speechlessG2974.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that, as soon asG5613 the daysG2250 of hisG846 ministrationG3009 were accomplishedG4130, he departedG565 toG1519 his ownG846 houseG3624.
AndG1161 afterG3326 thoseG5025 daysG2250 hisG846 wifeG1135 ElisabethG1665 conceivedG4815, andG2532 hidG4032 herselfG1438 fiveG4002 monthsG3376, sayingG3004,
ThusG3779 hathG4160 the LordG2962 dealtG4160 with meG3427 inG1722 the daysG2250 whereinG3739 he looked onG1896 me, to take awayG851 myG3450 reproachG3681 amongG1722 menG444.
AndG1161 inG1722 the sixthG1623 monthG3376 the angelG32 GabrielG1043 was sentG649 fromG5259 GodG2316 untoG1519 a cityG4172 of GalileeG1056, namedG3739+G3686 NazarethG3478,
ToG4314 a virginG3933 espousedG3423 to a manG435 whoseG3739 nameG3686 was JosephG2501, ofG1537 the houseG3624 of DavidG1138; andG2532 the virgin'sG3933 nameG3686 was MaryG3137.
AndG2532 the angelG32 came inG1525 untoG4314 herG846, and saidG2036, HailG5463, thou that art highly favouredG5487, the LordG2962 is withG3326 theeG4675: blessedG2127 art thouG4771 amongG1722 womenG1135. {highly…: or, graciously accepted, or, of much grace}
AndG1161 when she sawG1492 him, she was troubledG1298 atG1909 hisG846 sayingG3056, andG2532 cast in her mindG1260 what mannerG4217 of salutationG783 thisG3778 should beG1498.
AndG2532 the angelG32 saidG2036 unto herG846, FearG5399 notG3361, MaryG3137: forG1063 thou hast foundG2147 favourG5485 withG3844 GodG2316.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, thou shalt conceiveG4815 inG1722 thy wombG1064, andG2532 bring forthG5088 a sonG5207, andG2532 shalt callG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 JESUSG2424.
HeG3778 shall beG2071 greatG3173, andG2532 shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of the HighestG5310: andG2532 the LordG2962 GodG2316 shall giveG1325 unto himG846 the throneG2362 of hisG846 fatherG3962 DavidG1138:
AndG2532 he shall reignG936 overG1909 the houseG3624 of JacobG2384 forG1519 everG165; andG2532 of hisG846 kingdomG932 there shall beG2071 noG3756 endG5056.
ThenG1161 saidG2036 MaryG3137 untoG4314 the angelG32, HowG4459 shallG2071 thisG5124 beG2071, seeingG1893 I knowG1097 notG3756 a manG435?
AndG2532 the angelG32 answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto herG846, The HolyG40 GhostG4151 shall comeG1904 uponG1909 theeG4571, andG2532 the powerG1411 of the HighestG5310 shall overshadowG1982 theeG4671: thereforeG1352 alsoG2532 that holy thingG40 which shall be bornG1080 ofG1537 theeG4675 shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of GodG2316.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, thyG4675 cousinG4773 ElisabethG1665, sheG846 hathG4815 alsoG2532 conceivedG4815 a sonG5207 inG1722 herG846 old ageG1094: andG2532 thisG3778 isG2076 the sixthG1623 monthG3376 with herG846, whoG3588 was calledG2564 barrenG4723.
ForG3754 withG3844 GodG2316 nothingG3756+G3956+G4487 shall be impossibleG101.
AndG1161 MaryG3137 saidG2036, BeholdG2400 the handmaidG1399 of the LordG2962; be itG1096 unto meG3427 accordingG2596 to thyG4675 wordG4487. AndG2532 the angelG32 departedG565 fromG575 herG846.
AndG1161 MaryG3137 aroseG450 inG1722 thoseG5025 daysG2250, and wentG4198 intoG1519 the hill countryG3714 withG3326 hasteG4710, intoG1519 a cityG4172 of JudaG2448;
AndG2532 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the houseG3624 of ZachariasG2197, andG2532 salutedG782 ElisabethG1665.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that, whenG5613 ElisabethG1665 heardG191 the salutationG783 of MaryG3137, the babeG1025 leapedG4640 inG1722 herG846 wombG2836; andG2532 ElisabethG1665 was filledG4130 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151:
AndG2532 she spake outG400 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, andG2532 saidG2036, BlessedG2127 art thouG4771 amongG1722 womenG1135, andG2532 blessedG2127 is the fruitG2590 of thyG4675 wombG2836.
AndG2532 whenceG4159 is thisG5124 to meG3427, thatG2443 the motherG3384 of myG3450 LordG2962 should comeG2064 toG4314 meG3165?
ForG1063, loG2400, as soon asG5613 the voiceG5456 of thyG4675 salutationG783 soundedG1096 inG1519 mineG3450 earsG3775, the babeG1025 leapedG4640 inG1722 myG3450 wombG2836 forG1722 joyG20.
AndG2532 blessedG3107 is she that believedG4100: forG3754 there shall beG2071 a performanceG5050 of those things which were toldG2980 herG846 fromG3844 the LordG2962. {that…: or, which believed that there}
AndG2532 MaryG3137 saidG2036, MyG3450 soulG5590 doth magnifyG3170 the LordG2962,
AndG2532 myG3450 spiritG4151 hath rejoicedG21 inG1909 GodG2316 myG3450 SaviourG4990.
ForG3754 he hath regardedG1914+G1909 the low estateG5014 of hisG846 handmaidenG1399: forG1063, beholdG2400, fromG575 henceforthG3568 allG3956 generationsG1074 shall callG3106 meG3165 blessedG3106.
ForG3754 he that is mightyG1415 hath doneG4160 to meG3427 great thingsG3167; andG2532 holyG40 is hisG846 nameG3686.
AndG2532 hisG846 mercyG1656 is on them that fearG5399 himG846 fromG1519 generationG1074 to generationG1074.
He hath shewedG4160 strengthG2904 withG1722 hisG846 armG1023; he hath scatteredG1287 the proudG5244 in the imaginationG1271 of theirG846 heartsG2588.
He hath put downG2507 the mightyG1413 fromG575 their seatsG2362, andG2532 exaltedG5312 them of low degreeG5011.
He hath filledG1705 the hungryG3983 with good thingsG18; andG2532 the richG4147 he hath sentG1821 emptyG2756 awayG1821.
He hath holpenG482 hisG846 servantG3816 IsraelG2474, in remembranceG3415 of his mercyG1656;
AsG2531 he spakeG2980 toG4314 ourG2257 fathersG3962, to AbrahamG11, andG2532 to hisG846 seedG4690 forG1519 everG165.
AndG1161 MaryG3137 abodeG3306 withG4862 herG846 aboutG5616 threeG5140 monthsG3376, andG2532 returnedG5290 toG1519 her ownG846 houseG3624.
NowG1161 Elisabeth'sG1665 fullG4130 timeG5550 cameG4130 that sheG846 should be deliveredG5088; andG2532 she brought forthG1080 a sonG5207.
AndG2532 her neighboursG4040 andG2532 herG846 cousinsG4773 heardG191 howG3754 the LordG2962 had shewed greatG3170 mercyG1656+G846 uponG3326 herG846; andG2532 they rejoicedG4796 with herG846.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that onG1722 the eighthG3590 dayG2250 they cameG2064 to circumciseG4059 the childG3813; andG2532 they calledG2564 himG846 ZachariasG2197, afterG1909 the nameG3686 of hisG846 fatherG3962.
AndG2532 hisG846 motherG3384 answeredG611 and saidG2036, NotG3780 so; butG235 he shall be calledG2564 JohnG2491.
AndG2532 they saidG2036 untoG4314 herG846+G3754, There isG2076 noneG3762 ofG1722 thyG4675 kindredG4772 thatG3739 is calledG2564 by thisG5129 nameG3686.
AndG1161 they made signsG1770 to hisG846 fatherG3962, howG5101+G302 he would haveG2309 himG846 calledG2564.
AndG2532 he asked forG154 a writing tableG4093, and wroteG1125, sayingG3004, HisG846 nameG3686 isG2076 JohnG2491. AndG2532 they marvelledG2296 allG3956.
AndG1161 hisG846 mouthG4750 was openedG455 immediatelyG3916, andG2532 hisG846 tongueG1100 loosed, andG2532 he spakeG2980, and praisedG2127 GodG2316.
AndG2532 fearG5401 cameG1096 onG1909 allG3956 that dwelt round aboutG4039 themG846: andG2532 allG3956 theseG5023 sayingsG4487 were noised abroadG1255 throughoutG1722 allG3650 the hill countryG3714 of JudaeaG2449. {sayings: or, things}
AndG2532 allG3956 they that heardG191 them laid them upG5087 inG1722 theirG846 heartsG2588, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 mannerG686 of childG3813 shallG2071 thisG5124 beG2071! AndG2532 the handG5495 of the LordG2962 wasG2258 withG3326 himG846.
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.
NowG1161 whenG1893 he had endedG4137 allG3956 hisG846 sayingsG4487 inG1519 the audienceG189 of the peopleG2992, he enteredG1525 intoG1519 CapernaumG2584.
AndG1161 a certainG5100 centurion'sG1543 servantG1401, whoG3739 wasG2258 dearG1784 unto himG846, wasG2192 sickG2560, and readyG3195 to dieG5053.
AndG1161 when he heardG191 ofG4012 JesusG2424, he sentG649 untoG4314 himG846 the eldersG4245 of the JewsG2453, beseechingG2065 himG846 thatG3704 he would comeG2064 and healG1295 hisG846 servantG1401.
AndG1161 when they cameG3854 toG4314 JesusG2424, they besoughtG3870 himG846 instantlyG4709, sayingG3004, ThatG3754 he wasG2076 worthyG514 for whomG3739 he should doG3930 thisG5124:
ForG1063 he lovethG25 ourG2257 nationG1484, andG2532 heG846 hath builtG3618 usG2254 a synagogueG4864.
ThenG1161 JesusG2424 wentG4198 withG4862 themG846. AndG1161 when heG846 wasG568 nowG2235 notG3756 farG3112 fromG575 the houseG3614, the centurionG1543 sentG3992 friendsG5384 toG4314 himG846, sayingG3004 unto himG846, LordG2962, troubleG4660 notG3361 thyselfG4660: forG1063 I amG1510 notG3756 worthyG2425 thatG2443 thou shouldest enterG1525 underG5259 myG3450 roofG4721:
WhereforeG1352 neitherG3761 thought IG515 myselfG1683 worthyG515 to comeG2064 untoG4314 theeG4571: butG235 sayG2036 in a wordG3056, andG2532 myG3450 servantG3816 shall be healedG2390.
ForG1063 IG1473 alsoG2532 amG1510 a manG444 setG5021 underG5259 authorityG1849, havingG2192 underG5259 meG1683 soldiersG4757, andG2532 I sayG3004 unto oneG5129, GoG4198, andG2532 he goethG4198; andG2532 to anotherG243, ComeG2064, andG2532 he comethG2064; andG2532 to myG3450 servantG1401, DoG4160 thisG5124, andG2532 he doethG4160 it. {one: Gr. this man}
WhenG1161 JesusG2424 heardG191 these thingsG5023, he marvelledG2296 at himG846, andG2532 turned him aboutG4762, and saidG2036 unto the peopleG3793 that followedG190 himG846, I sayG3004 unto youG5213, I have not foundG2147 so greatG5118 faithG4102, no, notG3761 inG1722 IsraelG2474.
AndG2532 they that were sentG3992, returningG5290 toG1519 the houseG3624, foundG2147 the servantG1401 wholeG5198 that had been sickG770.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096+G1722 the day afterG1836, that he wentG4198 intoG1519 a cityG4172 calledG2564 NainG3484; andG2532 manyG2425 of hisG846 disciplesG3101 went withG4848 himG846, andG2532 muchG4183 peopleG3793.
NowG1161 whenG5613 he came nighG1448 to the gateG4439 of the cityG4172, beholdG2532+G2400, there wasG1580 a dead manG2348 carried outG1580, the onlyG3439 sonG5207 of hisG846 motherG3384, andG2532 sheG846 wasG2258 a widowG5503: andG2532 muchG2425 peopleG3793 of the cityG4172 wasG2258 withG4862 herG846.
AndG2532 when the LordG2962 sawG1492 herG846, he had compassionG4697 onG1909 herG846, andG2532 saidG2036 unto herG846, WeepG2799 notG3361.
AndG2532 he cameG4334 and touchedG680 the bierG4673: andG1161 they that bareG941 him stood stillG2476. AndG2532 he saidG2036, Young manG3495, I sayG3004 unto theeG4671, AriseG1453. {bier: or, coffin}
AndG2532 he that was deadG3498 sat upG339, andG2532 beganG756 to speakG2980. AndG2532 he deliveredG1325 himG846 to hisG846 motherG3384.
AndG1161 there cameG2983 a fearG5401 on allG537: andG2532 they glorifiedG1392 GodG2316, sayingG3004, ThatG3754 a greatG3173 prophetG4396 is risen upG1453 amongG1722 usG2254; andG2532, ThatG3754 GodG2316 hath visitedG1980 hisG846 peopleG2992.
AndG2532 thisG3778 rumourG3056 ofG4012 himG846 went forthG1831 throughoutG1722 allG3650 JudaeaG2449, andG2532 throughoutG1722 allG3956 the region round aboutG4066.
AndG2532 the disciplesG3101 of JohnG2491 shewedG518 himG846 ofG4012 allG3956 these thingsG5130.
AndG2532 JohnG2491 callingG4341 unto him twoG1417+G5100 of hisG846 disciplesG3101 sentG3992 them toG4314 JesusG2424, sayingG3004, ArtG1488 thouG4771 he that should comeG2064? orG2228 look we forG4328 anotherG243?
WhenG1161 the menG435 were comeG3854 untoG4314 himG846, they saidG2036, JohnG2491 BaptistG910 hath sentG649 usG2248 untoG4314 theeG4571, sayingG3004, ArtG1488 thouG4771 he that should comeG2064? orG2228 look we forG4328 anotherG243?
AndG1161 inG1722 that sameG846 hourG5610 he curedG2323 manyG4183 ofG575 their infirmitiesG3554 andG2532 plaguesG3148, andG2532 of evilG4190 spiritsG4151; andG2532 unto manyG4183 that were blindG5185 he gaveG5483 sightG991.
ThenG2532 JesusG2424 answeringG611 saidG2036 unto themG846, Go your wayG4198, and tellG518 JohnG2491 what thingsG3739 ye have seenG1492 andG2532 heardG191; howG3754 that the blindG5185 seeG308, the lameG5560 walkG4043, the lepersG3015 are cleansedG2511, the deafG2974 hearG191, the deadG3498 are raisedG1453, to the poorG4434 the gospel is preachedG2097.
AndG2532 blessedG3107 isG2076 he, whosoeverG3739 shallG4624 notG3362 be offendedG4624 inG1722 meG1698.
AndG1161 when the messengersG32 of JohnG2491 were departedG565, he beganG756 to speakG3004 untoG4314 the peopleG3793 concerningG4012 JohnG2491, WhatG5101 went ye outG1831 intoG1519 the wildernessG2048 for to seeG2300? A reedG2563 shakenG4531 withG5259 the windG417?
ButG235 whatG5101 went ye outG1831 for to seeG1492? A manG444 clothedG294 inG1722 softG3120 raimentG2440? BeholdG2400, they which areG1722 gorgeouslyG1741 apparelledG2441, andG2532 liveG5225 delicatelyG5172, areG1526 inG1722 kings' courtsG933.
ButG235 whatG5101 went ye outG1831 for to seeG1492? A prophetG4396? YeaG3483, I sayG3004 unto youG5213, andG2532 much moreG4055 than a prophetG4396.
ThisG3778 isG2076 he, ofG4012 whomG3739 it is writtenG1125, BeholdG2400, IG1473 sendG649 myG3450 messengerG32 beforeG4253 thyG4675 faceG4383, whichG3739 shall prepareG2680 thyG4675 wayG3598 beforeG1715 theeG4675.
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.
AndG1161 oneG5100 of the PhariseesG5330 desiredG2065 himG846 thatG2443 he would eatG5315 withG3326 himG846. AndG2532 he wentG1525 intoG1519 the Pharisee'sG5330 houseG3614, and sat down to meatG347.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, a womanG1135 inG1722 the cityG4172, whichG3748 wasG2258 a sinnerG268, when she knewG1921 thatG3754 Jesus sat at meatG345 inG1722 the Pharisee'sG5330 houseG3614, broughtG2865 an alabaster boxG211 of ointmentG3464,
AndG2532 stoodG2476 atG3844 hisG846 feetG4228 behindG3694 him weepingG2799, and beganG756 to washG1026 hisG846 feetG4228 with tearsG1144, andG2532 did wipeG1591 them with the hairsG2359 of herG846 headG2776, andG2532 kissedG2705 hisG846 feetG4228, andG2532 anointedG218 them with the ointmentG3464.
NowG1161 when the PhariseeG5330 whichG3588 had biddenG2564 himG846 sawG1492 it, he spakeG2036 withinG1722 himselfG1438, sayingG3004, This manG3778, ifG1487 he wereG2258 a prophetG4396+G302, would have knownG1097 whoG5101 andG2532 what mannerG4217 of womanG1135 this is thatG3748 touchethG680 himG846: forG3754 she isG2076 a sinnerG268.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 answeringG611 saidG2036 untoG4314 himG846, SimonG4613, I haveG2192 somewhatG5100 to sayG2036 unto theeG4671. AndG1161 he saithG5346, MasterG1320, say onG2036.
There wasG2258 a certainG5100 creditorG1157 which had twoG1417 debtorsG5533: the oneG1520 owedG3784 five hundredG4001 penceG1220, andG1161 the otherG2087 fiftyG4004.
AndG1161 when theyG846 hadG2192 nothingG3361 to payG591, he frankly forgaveG5483 them bothG297. Tell meG2036 thereforeG3767, whichG5101 of themG846 will loveG25 himG846 mostG4119?
SimonG4613 answeredG611 andG1161 saidG2036, I supposeG5274 thatG3754 he, to whomG3739 he forgaveG5483 mostG4119. AndG1161 he saidG2036 unto himG846, Thou hastG2919 rightlyG3723 judgedG2919.
AndG2532 he turnedG4762 toG4314 the womanG1135, and saidG5346 unto SimonG4613, Seest thouG991 thisG5026 womanG1135? I enteredG1525 intoG1519 thineG4675 houseG3614, thou gavest meG1325 noG3756 waterG5204 forG1909 myG3450 feetG4228: butG1161 sheG3778+G846 hath washedG1026 myG3450 feetG4228 with tearsG1144, andG2532 wipedG1591 them with the hairsG2359 of herG846 headG2776.
Thou gavestG1325 meG3427 noG3756 kissG5370: butG1161 this womanG3778+G846 sinceG575 the timeG3739 I came inG1525 hathG1257 notG3756 ceasedG1257 to kissG2705 myG3450 feetG4228.
MyG3450 headG2776 with oilG1637 thou didstG218 notG3756 anointG218: butG1161 this womanG3778+G846 hath anointedG218 myG3450 feetG4228 with ointmentG3464.
WhereforeG3739+G5484 I sayG3004 unto theeG4671, HerG846 sinsG266, whichG3588 are manyG4183, are forgivenG863; forG3754 she lovedG25 muchG4183: butG1161 to whomG3739 littleG3641 is forgivenG863, the same lovethG25 littleG3641.
AndG1161 he saidG2036 unto herG846, ThyG4675 sinsG266 are forgivenG863.
AndG2532 they that sat at meat with himG4873 beganG756 to sayG3004 withinG1722 themselvesG1438, WhoG5101 isG2076 thisG3778 thatG3739 forgivethG863 sinsG266 alsoG2532?
AndG1161 he saidG2036 toG4314 the womanG1135, ThyG4675 faithG4102 hath savedG4982 theeG4571; goG4198 inG1519 peaceG1515.
And the headH7218 of EphraimH669 is SamariaH8111, and the headH7218 of SamariaH8111 is Remaliah'sH7425 sonH1121. If ye will not believeH539, surely ye shall not be establishedH539. {If…: or, Do ye not believe? it is because ye are not stable}
And it came to pass after manyH7227 daysH3117, that the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to ElijahH452 in the thirdH7992 yearH8141, sayingH559, GoH3212, shewH7200 thyself unto AhabH256; and I will sendH5414 rainH4306 uponH6440 the earthH127.
And ElijahH452 wentH3212 to shewH7200 himself unto AhabH256. And there was a soreH2389 famineH7458 in SamariaH8111.
And AhabH256 calledH7121 ObadiahH5662, which was the governor of his houseH1004. (Now ObadiahH5662 fearedH3373 the LORDH3068 greatlyH3966: {Obadiah: Heb. Obadiahu} {the governor…: Heb. over his house}
For it was so, when JezebelH348 cut offH3772 the prophetsH5030 of the LORDH3068, that ObadiahH5662 tookH3947 an hundredH3967 prophetsH5030, and hidH2244 them by fiftyH376+H2572 in a caveH4631, and fedH3557 them with breadH3899 and waterH4325.) {Jezebel: Heb. Izebel}
And AhabH256 saidH559 unto ObadiahH5662, GoH3212 into the landH776, unto all fountainsH4599 of waterH4325, and unto all brooksH5158: peradventureH194 we may findH4672 grassH2682 to saveH2421 the horsesH5483 and mulesH6505 aliveH2421, that we loseH3772 not all the beastsH929. {that…: Heb. that we cut not off ourselves from the beasts}
So they dividedH2505 the landH776 between them to pass throughoutH5674 it: AhabH256 wentH1980 oneH259 wayH1870 by himself, and ObadiahH5662 wentH1980 anotherH259 wayH1870 by himself.
And as ObadiahH5662 was in the wayH1870, behold, ElijahH452 metH7125 him: and he knewH5234 him, and fellH5307 on his faceH6440, and saidH559, Art thou that my lordH113 ElijahH452?
And he answeredH559 him, I am: goH3212, tellH559 thy lordH113, Behold, ElijahH452 is here.
And he saidH559, What have I sinnedH2398, that thou wouldest deliverH5414 thy servantH5650 into the handH3027 of AhabH256, to slayH4191 me?
As the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 livethH2416, there is noH3426 nationH1471 or kingdomH4467, whitherH834 my lordH113 hath not sentH7971 to seekH1245 thee: and when they saidH559, He is not there; he took an oathH7650 of the kingdomH4467 and nationH1471, that they foundH4672 thee not.
And now thou sayestH559, GoH3212, tellH559 thy lordH113, Behold, ElijahH452 is here.
And it shall come to pass, as soon as I am goneH3212 from thee, that the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 shall carryH5375 thee whither I knowH3045 not; and so when I comeH935 and tellH5046 AhabH256, and he cannot findH4672 thee, he shall slayH2026 me: but I thy servantH5650 fearH3372 the LORDH3068 from my youthH5271.
Was it not toldH5046 my lordH113 what I didH6213 when JezebelH348 slewH2026 the prophetsH5030 of the LORDH3068, how I hidH2244 an hundredH3967 menH376 of the LORD'SH3068 prophetsH5030 by fiftyH2572 in a caveH4631, and fedH3557 them with breadH3899 and waterH4325?
And now thou sayestH559, GoH3212, tellH559 thy lordH113, Behold, ElijahH452 is here: and he shall slayH2026 me.
And ElijahH452 saidH559, As the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 livethH2416, beforeH6440 whom I standH5975, I will surely shewH7200 myself unto him to dayH3117.
So ObadiahH5662 wentH3212 to meetH7125 AhabH256, and toldH5046 him: and AhabH256 wentH3212 to meetH7125 ElijahH452.
And it came to pass, when AhabH256 sawH7200 ElijahH452, that AhabH256 saidH559 unto him, Art thou he that troublethH5916 IsraelH3478?
And he answeredH559, I have not troubledH5916 IsraelH3478; but thou, and thy father'sH1 houseH1004, in that ye have forsakenH5800 the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068, and thou hast followedH3212+H310 BaalimH1168.
Now therefore sendH7971, and gatherH6908 to me all IsraelH3478 unto mountH2022 CarmelH3760, and the prophetsH5030 of BaalH1168 fourH702 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572, and the prophetsH5030 of the grovesH842 fourH702 hundredH3967, which eatH398 at Jezebel'sH348 tableH7979.
So AhabH256 sentH7971 unto all the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and gatheredH6908 the prophetsH5030 togetherH6908 unto mountH2022 CarmelH3760.
And ElijahH452 cameH5066 unto all the peopleH5971, and saidH559, How longH5921 haltH6452 ye between twoH8147 opinionsH5587? if the LORDH3068 be GodH430, follow him: but if BaalH1168, then followH3212+H310 him. And the peopleH5971 answeredH6030 him not a wordH1697. {opinions: or, thoughts}
Then saidH559 ElijahH452 unto the peopleH5971, I, even I only, remainH3498 a prophetH5030 of the LORDH3068; but Baal'sH1168 prophetsH5030 are fourH702 hundredH3967 and fiftyH2572 menH376.
Let them therefore giveH5414 us twoH8147 bullocksH6499; and let them chooseH977 oneH259 bullockH6499 for themselves, and cut it in piecesH5408, and layH7760 it on woodH6086, and putH7760 no fireH784 under: and I will dressH6213 the otherH259 bullockH6499, and layH5414 it on woodH6086, and putH7760 no fireH784 under:
And callH7121 ye on the nameH8034 of your godsH430, and I will callH7121 on the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068: and the GodH430 that answerethH6030 by fireH784, let him be GodH430. And all the peopleH5971 answeredH6030 and saidH559, It is wellH2896 spokenH1697. {It is…: Heb. The word is good}
And ElijahH452 saidH559 unto the prophetsH5030 of BaalH1168, ChooseH977 you oneH259 bullockH6499 for yourselves, and dressH6213 it firstH7223; for ye are manyH7227; and callH7121 on the nameH8034 of your godsH430, but putH7760 no fireH784 under.
And they tookH3947 the bullockH6499 which was givenH5414 them, and they dressedH6213 it, and calledH7121 on the nameH8034 of BaalH1168 from morningH1242 even until noonH6672, sayingH559, O BaalH1168, hearH6030 us. But there was noH369 voiceH6963, nor any that answeredH6030. And they leapedH6452 upon the altarH4196 which was madeH6213. {hear: or, answer} {answered: or, heard} {leaped…: or, leaped up and down at the altar}
And it came to pass at noonH6672, that ElijahH452 mockedH2048 them, and saidH559, CryH7121 aloudH1419+H6963: for he is a godH430; either he is talkingH7879, or he is pursuingH7873, or he is in a journeyH1870, or peradventureH194 he sleepethH3463, and must be awakedH3364. {aloud: Heb. with a great voice} {he is talking: or, he meditateth} {is pursuing: Heb. hath a pursuit}
And they criedH7121 aloudH6963+H1419, and cutH1413 themselves after their mannerH4941 with knivesH2719 and lancetsH7420, till the bloodH1818 gushed outH8210 upon them. {the blood…: Heb. poured out blood upon them}
And it came to pass, when middayH6672 was pastH5674, and they prophesiedH5012 until the time of the offeringH5927 of the evening sacrificeH4503, that there was neither voiceH6963, nor any to answerH6030, nor any that regardedH7182. {offering: Heb. ascending} {that regarded: Heb. attention}
And ElijahH452 saidH559 unto all the peopleH5971, Come nearH5066 unto me. And all the peopleH5971 came nearH5066 unto him. And he repairedH7495 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068 that was broken downH2040.
And ElijahH452 tookH3947 twelveH8147+H6240 stonesH68, according to the numberH4557 of the tribesH7626 of the sonsH1121 of JacobH3290, unto whom the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came, sayingH559, IsraelH3478 shall be thy nameH8034:
And with the stonesH68 he builtH1129 an altarH4196 in the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068: and he madeH6213 a trenchH8585 aboutH5439 the altarH4196, as great as would containH1004 two measuresH5429 of seedH2233.
And he putH6186 the woodH6086 in orderH6186, and cutH5408 the bullockH6499 in pieces, and laidH7760 him on the woodH6086, and saidH559, FillH4390 fourH702 barrelsH3537 with waterH4325, and pourH3332 it on the burnt sacrificeH5930, and on the woodH6086.
And he saidH559, Do it the second timeH8138. And they did it the second timeH8138. And he saidH559, Do it the third timeH8027. And they did it the third timeH8027.
And the waterH4325 ranH3212 round aboutH5439 the altarH4196; and he filledH4390 the trenchH8585 also with waterH4325. {ran: Heb. went}
And it came to pass at the time of the offeringH5927 of the evening sacrificeH4503, that ElijahH452 the prophetH5030 came nearH5066, and saidH559, LORDH3068 GodH430 of AbrahamH85, IsaacH3327, and of IsraelH3478, let it be knownH3045 this dayH3117 that thou art GodH430 in IsraelH3478, and that I am thy servantH5650, and that I have doneH6213 all these things at thy wordH1697.
HearH6030 me, O LORDH3068, hearH6030 me, that this peopleH5971 may knowH3045 that thou art the LORDH3068 GodH430, and that thou hast turnedH5437 their heartH3820 backH5437 againH322.
Then the fireH784 of the LORDH3068 fellH5307, and consumedH398 the burnt sacrificeH5930, and the woodH6086, and the stonesH68, and the dustH6083, and licked upH3897 the waterH4325 that was in the trenchH8585.
And when all the peopleH5971 sawH7200 it, they fellH5307 on their facesH6440: and they saidH559, The LORDH3068, he is the GodH430; the LORDH3068, he is the GodH430.
And ElijahH452 saidH559 unto them, TakeH8610 the prophetsH5030 of BaalH1168; let not oneH376 of them escapeH4422. And they tookH8610 them: and ElijahH452 brought them downH3381 to the brookH5158 KishonH7028, and slewH7819 them there. {Take: or, Apprehend}
And ElijahH452 saidH559 unto AhabH256, Get thee upH5927, eatH398 and drinkH8354; for there is a soundH6963 of abundanceH1995 of rainH1653. {a sound…: or, a sound of a noise of rain}
So AhabH256 went upH5927 to eatH398 and to drinkH8354. And ElijahH452 went upH5927 to the topH7218 of CarmelH3760; and he cast himself downH1457 upon the earthH776, and putH7760 his faceH6440 between his kneesH1290,
And saidH559 to his servantH5288, Go upH5927 now, lookH5027 towardH1870 the seaH3220. And he went upH5927, and lookedH5027, and saidH559, There is nothingH3972. And he saidH559, Go againH7725 sevenH7651 timesH6471.
And it came to pass at the seventh timeH7637, that he saidH559, Behold, there arisethH5927 a littleH6996 cloudH5645 out of the seaH3220, like a man'sH376 handH3709. And he saidH559, Go upH5927, sayH559 unto AhabH256, PrepareH631 thy chariot, and get thee downH3381, that the rainH1653 stopH6113 thee not. {Prepare: Heb. Tie, or, Bind}
And it came to pass in the mean whileH3541, that the heavenH8064 was blackH6937 with cloudsH5645 and windH7307, and there was a greatH1419 rainH1653. And AhabH256 rodeH7392, and wentH3212 to JezreelH3157.
And the handH3027 of the LORDH3068 was on ElijahH452; and he girded upH8151 his loinsH4975, and ranH7323 beforeH6440 AhabH256 to the entranceH935 of JezreelH3157. {to the…: Heb. till thou come to Jezreel}
AndG2532 soG3779 allG3956 IsraelG2474 shall be savedG4982: asG2531 it is writtenG1125, There shall comeG2240 out ofG1537 SionG4622 the DelivererG4506, andG2532 shall turn awayG654 ungodlinessG763 fromG575 JacobG2384:
They sayG3004 unto himG846, Caesar'sG2541. ThenG5119 saith heG3004 unto themG846, RenderG591 thereforeG3767 unto CaesarG2541 the things which areG3588 Caesar'sG2541; andG2532 unto GodG2316 the things that areG3588 God'sG2316.
AndG2532 ifG1487 ye willG2309 receiveG1209 it, thisG846 isG2076 EliasG2243, whichG3588 was forG3195 to comeG2064.
