1 Three days after, there was a marriage in Cana, of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.2 Jesus, also, and his disciples, were invited to the marriage.3 The wine falling short, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine.4 Jesus answered, Woman, what have you to do with me? My time is not yet come.5 His mother said to the servants, Do whatever he shall bid you.6 Now there were six water pots of stone, containing two or three baths each, placed there for the Jewish rites of cleansing.7 Jesus said to them, Fill the pots with water. And they filled them to the brim.8 Then he said, Draw, now, and carry to the director of the feast. And they did so.9 When the director of the feast had tasted the wine made of water, not knowing whence it was, (but the servants who drew the water knew,)10 he said, addressing the bridegroom, Every person presents the best wine first, and worse wine afterward, when the guests have drunk largely; but you have reserved the best till now.11 This first miracle Jesus wrought in Cana of Galilee, displaying his glory: and his disciples believed on him.

1 As Jesus passed along, he saw a man who had been born blind.2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, who sinned: this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?3 Jesus answered, Neither this man nor his parents sinned. It was only that the works of God might be displayed upon him.4 I must do the work of him who sent me, while it is day; the night comes, when no man can work.5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.6 Having said this, he spit upon the ground, and with the clay, which he made with the spittle, anointed the blind man's eyes,7 and said to him, Go wash in the pool of Siloam, (which signifies Sent.) He went, therefore, and washed them, and returned seeing.8 Then the neighbors, and they who had before seen him blind, said, Is not this he who sat and begged?9 Some said, It is he; others, He is like him. He said, I am he.10 They asked him, then, How did you receive your sight?11 He answered, A man called Jesus, made clay and anointed my eyes, and said to me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash your eyes. I went accordingly, and washed them, and saw.12 Then they asked him, Where is he? He answered, I know not.

13 When Jesus heard this, he embarked privately; and retired into a desert place; of which the people being informed followed him by land out of the cities.14 Observing, as he landed, a great multitude, he had compassion on them, and healed their sick.15 Toward the evening, his disciples accosted him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past, dismiss the multitude, that they may go to the villages; and buy themselves provisions.16 Jesus answered, They need not go. Supply them yourselves.17 They said to him, We have here but five loaves and two fishes.18 He replied, Bring them hither to me.19 Then having commanded the people to recline upon the grass, he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking toward heaven, blessed them; then breaking the loaves, he gave them to the disciples, and they distributed them among the people.20 When all had eat, and were satisfied, they carried off twelve baskets full of the fragments that remained.21 Now they that had eat were about five thousand men; besides women and children.

35 That day, in the evening, he said to them, Let us pass to the other side.36 And they, leaving the people, but having him in the bark, set sail in company with other small barks.37 Then there arose a great storm of wind which drove the billows into the bark, which was now full.38 Jesus being in the stern, asleep on a pillow, they awake him, saying, Rabbi, do you not care that we perish?39 And he arose, and commanded the wind, saying to the sea, Peace! be still! Immediately the wind ceased, and great calm ensued.40 And he said to them, Why are you so timorous? How is it that you have no faith?41 And they were exceedingly terrified, and said one to another, Who is this, whom even the wind and the sea obey?

25 And a woman, who had been twelve years distressed with an issue of blood,26 who had suffered much from several physicians, and spent her all without receiving any relief, but rather growing worse,27 having heard of Jesus, came in the crowd, behind, and touched his mantle;28 for she had said, If I but touch his cloths, I shall recover.29 Instantly the source of her distemper was dried up, and she felt in her body, that she was delivered from that scourge.30 Jesus immediately, conscious of the virtue which had issued from him, turned toward the crowd, saying, Who touched my clothes?31 His disciples answered, You see how the multitude throng you; yet you say, Who touched me?32 But he looked round him, to see her who had done it.33 Then the woman, knowing the change wrought upon her, came trembling with fear, threw herself prostrate before him, and confessed the whole truth.34 But he said to her, Daughter, your faith has cured you; go in peace, released from this scourge.

1 Then they crossed the sea, and came into the country of the Gadarenes.2 He was no sooner gone ashore, than there met him a man coming from the monuments, possessed of an unclean spirit,3 who made his abode in the tombs; and no man could confine him, not even with chains,4 and broken the fetters, so that no person was able to tame him.5 He was continually, night and day, in the mountains, and in the tombs, howling, and cutting himself with flints.6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran, and prostrating himself before him,7 cried out, What hast thou to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I conjure thee by God not to torment me.8 (For Jesus had said to him, Come out of the man, you unclean spirit.)9 Jesus asked him, What is your name? He answered, My name is Legion, for we are many.10 And he earnestly entreated him not to drive them out of the country.11 Now there was a great herd of swine feeding on the mountain.12 And the fiends besought him, saying, Suffer us to go to the swine, that we may enter into them.13 Jesus immediately permitted them. Then the unclean spirits being gone out, entered into the swine; and the herd, in number about two thousand, rushed down a precipice into the sea, and were choked.14 And the swineherds fled, and told it in the city and villages. And the people flocked out to see what had happened.15 When they came to Jesus, and saw him who had been possessed by the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind, they were afraid.16 And those who had seen the whole, having related to them what had happened to the demoniac, and to the swine,17 they entreated him to leave their territories.18 As he entered the bark, the man who had been possessed, begged permission to attend him.19 Jesus however did not permit him, but said, Go home to your relations, and tell them what great things the Lord, in pity, has done for you.20 Accordingly he departed, publishing in Decapolis, what great things Jesus had done for him. And they were all amazed.

21 Jesus having repassed in the bark, a great crowd gathered round him, while he was on the shore.22 Then came one of the directors of the synagogue, named Jairus, who seeing him threw himself at his feet,23 and entreated him earnestly, saying, My little daughter is in extreme danger; I pray you come and lay your hands upon her and to heal her, and she will be well.24 And Jesus went with him, followed by a great multitude who thronged him.25 And a woman, who had been twelve years distressed with an issue of blood,26 who had suffered much from several physicians, and spent her all without receiving any relief, but rather growing worse,27 having heard of Jesus, came in the crowd, behind, and touched his mantle;28 for she had said, If I but touch his cloths, I shall recover.29 Instantly the source of her distemper was dried up, and she felt in her body, that she was delivered from that scourge.30 Jesus immediately, conscious of the virtue which had issued from him, turned toward the crowd, saying, Who touched my clothes?31 His disciples answered, You see how the multitude throng you; yet you say, Who touched me?32 But he looked round him, to see her who had done it.33 Then the woman, knowing the change wrought upon her, came trembling with fear, threw herself prostrate before him, and confessed the whole truth.34 But he said to her, Daughter, your faith has cured you; go in peace, released from this scourge.35 Before he had done speaking, messengers came from the house of the director of the synagogue, who said, Your daughter is dead, why should you trouble the teacher any further?36 Jesus hearing this message delivered, said immediately to the director, Fear not; only believe.37 And he allowed no person to follow him except Peter and James, and John, the brother of James.38 Being arrived at the director's house, and seeing the tumult, and the people weeping and wailing immoderately,39 he said to them, as he entered, Why do you weep and make a bustle? The child is not dead, but asleep.40 And they derided him. But having made them all go out, he took with him the child's father and mother, and those who came with him; and he entered the chamber where she was;41 and, taking her by the hand, said to her, Talitha cumi, (which signified, Young woman, arise,) I command you.42 Immediately the maid arose and walked, for she was twelve years old; and they were confounded with astonishment.43 But he strictly enjoined them not to mention it to any person, and ordered that something should be given her to eat.

22 Immediately he obliged the disciples to embark and pass over before him, while he dismissed the multitude.23 Having dismissed the multitude, he retired by himself to a mountain to pray, and remained there alone.24 By that time the bark was half way over, tossed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.25 In the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea.26 When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, being terrified, they exclaimed, An apparition! and cried out for fear.27 Jesus immediately spoke to them, saying, Take courage; it is I, be not afraid.28 Peter answering, said to him, If it be you, Master, bid me to come to you on the water.29 Jesus said, Come. Then Peter getting out of the bark, walked on the water toward Jesus.30 But finding the wind boisterous, he was frightened; and beginning to sink, cried, Master, save me.31 Jesus instantly stretching out his hand, caught him; and said to him, Distrustful man, wherefore did you doubt?32 When they had gone aboard, the wind ceased.33 Then those in the bark came, and prostrated themselves before him, saying, You are assuredly God's son.

1 After many days, he returned to Capernaum; and when it was known that he was in the house,2 such a multitude flocked thither, that there was no room for them, not even near the door, and he taught them the word.3 A paralytic was then brought, carried by four men,4 who, not being able to come nigh him for the crowd, uncovered the place where Jesus was; and, through the opening, let down the conch, on which the paralytic lay.5 Jesus perceiving their faith, said to the paralytic, Son, your sins are forgiven you.6 But certain scribes who were present, reasoned thus within themselves:7 How does this man speak such blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God?8 Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that they made these reflections, said to them, Why do you reason thus within yourselves?9 Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, Your sins are forgiven, or to say, with effect, Arise, take up your couch and walk?10 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power upon the earth to forgive sins, rise, (he said to the paralytic,)11 I command you, take up your couch, and go home.12 Immediately he rose, took up the couch, and walked out before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw anything like this.

1 Now, one Lazarus, of Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha, was sick.2 (It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with balsam, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)3 The sisters, therefore, sent to tell Jesus, Master, lo! he whom you love, is sick.4 Jesus hearing it, said, This sickness will not prove fatal; but conduce to the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified by it.5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.6 Having, then, heard that he was sick, Jesus staid two days in the place where he was.7 Afterward, he said to the disciples, Let us return to Judea.8 The disciples answered, Rabbi, but very lately the Jews would have stoned you, and you would return thither?9 Jesus replied, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbles not: because he sees the light of the world:10 but if he walk in the night, he stumbles; because there is no light.11 Having spoken this, he added, Our friend Lazarus sleeps; but I go to wake him.12 Then said his disciples, Master, if he sleep, he will recover.13 Jesus spoke of his death; but they thought that he spoke of the repose of sleep.14 Then Jesus told them plainly, Lazarus is dead.15 And on your account I am glad that I was not there, that you may believe; but let us go to him.16 Then Thomas, that is, Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, Let us go, that we may die with him.17 When Jesus came, he found that Lazarus had been already four days in the tomb.18 Now, (Bethany being about fifteen furlongs from Jerusalem,)19 many of the Jews came to Martha, and Mary, to comfort them on the death of their brother.20 Martha having heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him; but Mary remained in the house.21 Then Martha said to Jesus, Master, if you had been here, my brother had not died.22 But I know that even now, whatever you shall ask of God, God will give you.23 Jesus said to her, Your brother shall rise again.24 Martha replied, I know that he will rise at the resurrection, on the last day.25 Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes on me, though he were dead, shall live;26 and no man who lives and believes on me, shall ever die. Do you believe this?27 She answered, Yes, Master, I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, He who comes into the world.28 Having said this, she went and called Mary, her sister, aside, saying, The Teacher is come, and calls for you.29 When Mary heard this, she instantly rose and went to him.30 Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was in the place where Martha met him.31 The Jews, then, who were condoling with Mary in the house, when they saw that she arose hastily, and went out, followed her, saying, She is going to the tomb to weep there.32 Mary being come to the place where Jesus was, and seeing him, threw herself at his feet, saying, Had you be here, Master, my brother had not died.33 When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping, who came with her, he groaned deeply, and was troubled,34 and said, Where have you laid him? They answered, and said, Master, come and see.35 Jesus wept.36 The Jews, therefore, said, Mark how he loved him.37 But some of them said, Could not he who gave sight to the blind man, even have prevented this man's death?38 Jesus, therefore, again, groaning, came to the tomb. It was a cave, the entrance of which was shut up with a stone.39 Jesus said, Remove the stone. Martha, the sister of the deceased, answered, Sir, by this time, the smell is offensive, for this is the fourth day.40 Jesus replied, Did I not say to you, If you believe, you shall see the glory of God?41 Then they removed the stone. And Jesus, lifting up his eyes, said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.42 As for me, I know that thou hearest me always; but I speak, for the people's sake who surround me, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.43 After these words, raising his voice, he cried, Lazarus, come forth!44 He who had been dead, came forth, bound hand and foot with fillets, and his face wrapped in a handkerchief. Jesus said to them, Unbind him, and let him go.
