1. At that time Jesus went through the grain fields on a Sabbath. His disciples were hungry, and they began to pick heads of wheat and eat them.
|
1. At G1722 that G1565 time G2540 Jesus G2424 went G4198 on the G3588 sabbath day G4521 through G1223 the G3588 corn G4702 ; and G2532 his G846 disciples G3101 were hungry G3983 , and G2532 began G756 to pluck G5089 the ears of corn G4719 , and G2532 to eat G2068 .
|
|
2. But when the Pharisees saw this they said to him, "Look, your disciples are doing what is against the law to do on the Sabbath."
|
2. But G1161 when the G3588 Pharisees G5330 saw G1492 it, they said G2036 unto him G846 , Behold G2400 , thy G4675 disciples G3101 do G4160 that which G3739 is not lawful G1832 G3756 to do G4160 upon G1722 the sabbath day G4521 .
|
|
3. He said to them, "Haven't you read what David did when he and his companions were hungry�
|
3. But G1161 he G3588 said G2036 unto them G846 , Have ye not G3756 read G314 what G5101 David G1138 did G4160 , when G3753 he G846 was hungry G3983 , and G2532 they G3588 that were with G3326 him G846 ;
|
|
4. how he entered the house of God and they ate the sacred bread, which was against the law for him or his companions to eat, but only for the priests?
|
4. How G4459 he entered G1525 into G1519 the G3588 house G3624 of God G2316 , and G2532 did eat G5315 the G3588 shewbread G740 G4286 , which G3739 was G2258 not G3756 lawful G1832 for him G846 to eat G5315 , neither G3761 for them G3588 which were with G3326 him G846 , but G1508 only G3441 for the G3588 priests G2409
|
|
5. Or have you not read in the law that the priests in the temple desecrate the Sabbath and yet are not guilty?
|
5. Or G2228 have ye not G3756 read G314 in G1722 the G3588 law G3551 , how G3754 that on the G3588 sabbath days G4521 the G3588 priests G2409 in G1722 the G3588 temple G2411 profane G953 the G3588 sabbath G4521 , and G2532 are G1526 blameless G338
|
|
6. I tell you that something greater than the temple is here.
|
6. But G1161 I say G3004 unto you G5213 , That G3754 in this place G5602 is G2076 one greater G3187 than the G3588 temple G2411 .
|
|
7. If you had known what this means: 'I want mercy and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the innocent.
|
7. But G1161 if G1487 ye had known G1097 what G5101 this meaneth G2076 , I will G2309 have mercy G1656 , and G2532 not G3756 sacrifice G2378 , ye would not G3756 have condemned G2613 the G3588 guiltless G338 .
|
|
8. For the Son of Man is lord of the Sabbath."
|
8. For G1063 the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 is G2076 Lord G2962 even G2532 of the G3588 sabbath day G4521 .
|
|
9. Then Jesus left that place and entered their synagogue.
|
9. And G2532 when he was departed G3327 thence G1564 , he went G2064 into G1519 their G846 synagogue G4864 :
|
|
10. A man was there who had a withered hand. And they asked Jesus, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?" so that they could accuse him.
|
10. And G2532 , behold G2400 , there was G2258 a man G444 which had G2192 his hand G5495 withered G3584 . And G2532 they asked G1905 him G846 , saying G3004 G1487 , Is it lawful G1832 to heal G2323 on the G3588 sabbath days G4521 ? that G2443 they might accuse G2723 him G846 .
|
|
11. He said to them, "Would not any one of you, if he had one sheep that fell into a pit on the Sabbath, take hold of it and lift it out?
|
11. And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 unto them G846 , What G5101 man G444 shall there be G2071 among G1537 you G5216 , that G3739 shall have G2192 one G1520 sheep G4263 , and G2532 if G1437 it G5124 fall G1706 into G1519 a pit G999 on the G3588 sabbath day G4521 , will he not G3780 lay hold G2902 on it G846 , and G2532 lift it out G1453 ?
|
|
12. How much more valuable is a person than a sheep! So it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath."
|
12. How much G4214 then G3767 is a man better G1308 G444 than a sheep G4263 ? Wherefore G5620 it is lawful G1832 to do G4160 well G2573 on the G3588 sabbath days G4521 .
|
|
13. Then he said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out and it was restored, as healthy as the other.
|
13. Then G5119 saith G3004 he to the G3588 man G444 , Stretch forth G1614 thine G4675 hand. And G5495 he G2532 stretched it forth G1614 ; and G2532 it was restored G600 whole G5199 , like as G5613 the G3588 other G243 .
|
|
14. But the Pharisees went out and plotted against him, as to how they could assassinate him.
|
14. Then G1161 the G3588 Pharisees G5330 went out G1831 , and held G2983 a council G4824 against G2596 him G846 , how G3704 they might destroy G622 him G846 .
|
|
15. Now when Jesus learned of this, he went away from there. Great crowds followed him, and he healed them all.
|
15. But G1161 when Jesus G2424 knew G1097 it, he withdrew G402 himself from thence G1564 : and G2532 great G4183 multitudes G3793 followed G190 him G846 , and G2532 he healed G2323 them G846 all G3956 ;
|
|
16. But he sternly warned them not to make him known.
|
16. And G2532 charged G2008 them G846 that G2443 they should not G3361 make G4160 him G846 known G5318 :
|
|
17. This fulfilled what was spoken by Isaiah the prophet:
|
17. That G3704 it might be fulfilled G4137 which was spoken G4483 by G1223 Isaiah G2268 the G3588 prophet G4396 , saying G3004 ,
|
|
18. "Here is my servant whom I have chosen, the one I love, in whom I take great delight. I will put my Spirit on him, and he will proclaim justice to the nations.
|
18. Behold G2400 my G3450 servant G3816 , whom G3739 I have chosen G140 ; my G3450 beloved G27 , in G1519 whom G3739 my G1519 soul G5590 is well pleased G2106 : I will put G5087 my G3450 spirit G4151 upon G1909 him G846 , and G2532 he shall show G518 judgment G2920 to the G3588 Gentiles G1484 .
|
|
19. He will not quarrel or cry out, nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets.
|
19. He shall not G3756 strive G2051 , nor G3761 cry G2905 ; neither G3761 shall any man G5100 hear G191 his G846 voice G5456 in G1722 the G3588 streets G4113 .
|
|
20. He will not break a bruised reed or extinguish a smoldering wick, until he brings justice to victory.
|
20. A bruised G4937 reed G2563 shall he not G3756 break G2608 , and G2532 smoking G5188 flax G3043 shall he not G3756 quench G4570 , till G2193 G302 he send forth G1544 judgment G2920 unto G1519 victory G3534 .
|
|
21. And in his name the Gentiles will hope."
|
21. And G2532 in G1722 his G846 name G3686 shall the Gentiles G1484 trust G1679 .
|
|
22. Then they brought to him a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute. Jesus healed him so that he could speak and see.
|
22. Then G5119 was brought G4374 unto him G846 one possessed with a devil G1139 , blind G5185 , and G2532 dumb G2974 : and G2532 he healed G2323 him G846 , insomuch that G5620 the G3588 blind G5185 and G2532 dumb G2974 both G2532 spake G2980 and G2532 saw G191 .
|
|
23. All the crowds were amazed and said, "Could this one be the Son of David?"
|
23. And G2532 all G3956 the G3588 people G3793 were amazed G1839 , and G2532 said G3004 , Is G2076 not G3385 this G3778 the G3588 son G5207 of David G1138 ?
|
|
24. But when the Pharisees heard this they said, "He does not cast out demons except by the power of Beelzebul, the ruler of demons!"
|
24. But G1161 when the G3588 Pharisees G5330 heard G191 it, they said G2036 , This G3778 fellow doth not G3756 cast out G1544 devils G1140 , but G1508 by G1722 Beelzebub G954 the prince G758 of the G3588 devils G1140 .
|
|
25. Now when Jesus realized what they were thinking, he said to them, "Every kingdom divided against itself is destroyed, and no town or house divided against itself will stand.
|
25. And G1161 Jesus G2424 knew G1492 their G846 thoughts G1761 , and said G2036 unto them G846 , Every G3956 kingdom G932 divided G3307 against G2596 itself G1438 is brought to desolation G2049 ; and G2532 every G3956 city G4172 or G2228 house G3614 divided G3307 against G2596 itself G1438 shall not G3756 stand G2476 :
|
|
26. So if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
|
26. And G2532 if G1487 Satan G4567 cast out G1544 Satan G4567 , he is divided G3307 against G1909 himself G1438 ; how G4459 shall then G3767 his G846 kingdom G932 stand G2476 ?
|
|
27. And if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? For this reason they will be your judges.
|
27. And G2532 if G1487 I G1473 by G1722 Beelzebub G954 cast out G1544 devils G1140 , by G1722 whom G5101 do your G5216 children G5207 cast them out G1544 ? therefore G1223 G5124 they G846 shall be G2071 your G5216 judges G2923 .
|
|
28. But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has already overtaken you.
|
28. But G1161 if G1487 I G1473 cast out G1544 devils G1140 by G1722 the Spirit G4151 of God G2316 , then G686 the G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 is come G5348 unto G1909 you G5209 .
|
|
29. How else can someone enter a strong man's house and steal his property, unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can thoroughly plunder the house.
|
29. Or else G2228 how G4459 can G1410 one G5100 enter G1525 into G1519 a strong man G2478 's house G3614 , and G2532 spoil G1283 his G846 goods G4632 , except G3362 he first G4412 bind G1210 the G3588 strong man G2478 and G2532 then G5119 he will spoil G1283 his G846 house G3614 .
|
|
30. Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.
|
30. He that is G5607 not G3361 with G3326 me G1700 is G2076 against G2596 me G1700 ; and G2532 he that gathereth G4863 not G3361 with G3326 me G1700 scattereth abroad G4650 .
|
|
31. For this reason I tell you, people will be forgiven for every sin and blasphemy, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.
|
31. Wherefore G1223 G5124 I say G3004 unto you G5213 , All manner G3956 of sin G266 and G2532 blasphemy G988 shall be forgiven G863 unto men G444 : but G1161 the G3588 blasphemy G988 against the G3588 Holy Ghost G4151 shall not G3756 be forgiven G863 unto men G444 .
|
|
32. Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven. But whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.
|
32. And G2532 whosoever G3739 G302 speaketh G2036 a word G3056 against G2596 the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 , it shall be forgiven G863 him G846 : but G1161 whosoever G3739 G302 speaketh G2036 against G2596 the G3588 Holy G40 Ghost G4151 , it shall not G3756 be forgiven G863 him G846 , neither G3777 in G1722 this G5129 world G165 , neither G3777 in G1722 the G3588 world to come G3195 .
|
|
33. "Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is known by its fruit.
|
33. Either G2228 make G4160 the G3588 tree G1186 good G2570 , and G2532 his G846 fruit G2590 good G2570 ; or else G2228 make G4160 the G3588 tree G1186 corrupt G4550 , and G2532 his G846 fruit G2590 corrupt G4550 : for G1063 the G3588 tree G1186 is known G1097 by G1537 his fruit G2590 .
|
|
34. Offspring of vipers! How are you able to say anything good, since you are evil? For the mouth speaks from what fills the heart.
|
34. O generation G1081 of vipers G2191 , how G4459 can G1410 ye, being G5607 evil G4190 , speak G2980 good things G18 ? for G1063 out G1537 of the G3588 abundance G4051 of the G3588 heart G2588 the G3588 mouth G4750 speaketh G2980 .
|
|
35. The good person brings good things out of his good treasury, and the evil person brings evil things out of his evil treasury.
|
35. A good G18 man G444 out G1537 of the G3588 good G18 treasure G2344 of the G3588 heart G2588 bringeth forth G1544 good things G18 : and G2532 an evil G4190 man G444 out of G1537 the G3588 evil G4190 treasure G2344 bringeth forth G1544 evil things G4190 .
|
|
36. I tell you that on the day of judgment, people will give an account for every worthless word they speak.
|
36. But G1161 I say G3004 unto you G5213 , That G3754 every G3956 idle G692 word G4487 that G3739 G1437 men G444 shall speak G2980 , they shall give G591 account G3056 thereof G4012 G846 in G1722 the day G2250 of judgment G2920 .
|
|
37. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned."
|
37. For G1063 by G1537 thy G4675 words G3056 thou shalt be justified G1344 , and G2532 by G1537 thy G4675 words G3056 thou shalt be condemned G2613 .
|
|
38. Then some of the experts in the law along with some Pharisees answered him, "Teacher, we want to see a sign from you."
|
38. Then G5119 certain G5100 of the G3588 scribes G1122 and G2532 of the Pharisees G5330 answered G611 , saying G3004 , Master G1320 , we would G2309 see G1492 a sign G4592 from G575 thee G4675 .
|
|
39. But he answered them, "An evil and adulterous generation asks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.
|
39. But G1161 he G3588 answered G611 and said G2036 unto them G846 , An evil G4190 and G2532 adulterous G3428 generation G1074 seeketh after G1934 a sign G4592 ; and G2532 there shall no G3756 sign G4592 be given G1325 to it G846 , but G1508 the G3588 sign G4592 of the G3588 prophet G4396 Jonah G2495 :
|
|
40. For just as Jonah was in the belly of the huge fish for three days and three nights, so the Son of Man will be in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights.
|
40. For G1063 as G5618 Jonah G2495 was G2258 three G5140 days G2250 and G2532 three G5140 nights G3571 in G1722 the G3588 whale G2785 's belly G2836 ; so G3779 shall the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 be G2071 three G5140 days G2250 and G2532 three G5140 nights G3571 in G1722 the G3588 heart G2588 of the G3588 earth G1093 .
|
|
41. The people of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented when Jonah preached to them� and now, something greater than Jonah is here!
|
41. The men G435 of Nineveh G3536 shall rise G450 in G1722 judgment G2920 with G3326 this G5026 generation G1074 , and G2532 shall condemn G2632 it G846 : because G3754 they repented G3340 at G1519 the G3588 preaching G2782 of Jonah G2495 ; and G2532 , behold G2400 , a greater G4119 than Jonah G2495 is here G5602 .
|
|
42. The queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon� and now, something greater than Solomon is here!
|
42. The queen G938 of the south G3558 shall rise up G1453 in G1722 the G3588 judgment G2920 with G3326 this G5026 generation G1074 , and G2532 shall condemn G2632 it G846 : for G3754 she came G2064 from G1537 the G3588 uttermost parts G4009 of the G3588 earth G1093 to hear G191 the G3588 wisdom G4678 of Solomon G4672 ; and G2532 , behold G2400 , a greater G4119 than Solomon G4672 is here G5602 .
|
|
43. "When an unclean spirit goes out of a person, it passes through waterless places looking for rest but does not find it.
|
43. When G3752 the G3588 unclean G169 spirit G4151 is gone G1831 out of G575 a man G444 , he walketh G1330 through G1223 dry G504 places G5117 , seeking G2212 rest G372 , and G2532 findeth G2147 none G3756 .
|
|
44. Then it says, 'I will return to the home I left.' When it returns, it finds the house empty, swept clean, and put in order.
|
44. Then G5119 he saith G3004 , I will return G1994 into G1519 my G3450 house G3624 from whence G3606 I came out G1831 ; and G2532 when he is come G2064 , he findeth G2147 it empty G4980 , swept G4563 , and G2532 garnished G2885 .
|
|
45. Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they go in and live there, so the last state of that person is worse than the first. It will be that way for this evil generation as well!"
|
45. Then G5119 goeth G4198 he, and G2532 taketh G3880 with G3326 himself G1438 seven G2033 other G2087 spirits G4151 more wicked G4191 than himself G1438 , and G2532 they enter in G1525 and dwell G2730 there G1563 : and G2532 the G3588 last G2078 state of that G1565 man G444 is G1096 worse G5501 than the G3588 first G4413 . Even so G3779 shall it be G2071 also G2532 unto this G5026 wicked G4190 generation G1074 .
|
|
46. While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and brothers came and stood outside, asking to speak to him.
|
46. While G1161 he G846 yet G2089 talked G2980 to the G3588 people G3793 , behold G2400 , his mother G3384 and G2532 his G846 brethren G80 stood G2476 without G1854 , desiring G2212 to speak G2980 with him G846 .
|
|
47. Someone told him, "Look, your mother and your brothers are standing outside wanting to speak to you."
|
47. Then G1161 one G5100 said G2036 unto him G846 , Behold G2400 , thy G4675 mother G3384 and G2532 thy G4675 brethren G80 stand G2476 without G1854 , desiring G2212 to speak G2980 with thee G4671 .
|
|
48. To the one who had said this, Jesus replied, "Who is my mother and who are my brothers?"
|
48. But G1161 he G3588 answered G611 and said G2036 unto him that told G2036 him G846 , Who G5101 is G2076 my G3450 mother G3384 ? and G2532 who G5101 are G1526 my G3450 brethren G80 ?
|
|
49. And pointing toward his disciples he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers!
|
49. And G2532 he stretched forth G1614 his G848 hand G5495 toward G1909 his G848 disciples G3101 , and said G2036 , Behold G2400 my G3450 mother G3384 and G2532 my G3450 brethren G80 !
|
|
50. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother."
|
50. For G1063 whosoever G3748 shall do G4160 the G3588 will G2307 of my G3450 Father G3962 which G3588 is in G1722 heaven G3772 , the same G846 is G2076 my G3450 brother G80 , and G2532 sister G79 , and G2532 mother G3384 .
