Pure Cambridge Edition selected
And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?
And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
And they came to the place which God had told him of; and Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar upon the wood.
And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.
And the angel of the Lord called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I.
And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.
And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son.
And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen.
¶ And the angel of the Lord called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,
And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:

    1AND when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,

    2Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me.

    3And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.

    4All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,

    5Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.

    6And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,

    7And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.

    8And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.

    9And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.

    10And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?

    11And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.

    12¶ And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves,

    13And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.

    14And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.

    15And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; they were sore displeased,

    16And said unto him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise?

    17¶ And he left them, and went out of the city into Bethany; and he lodged there.

    18Now in the morning as he returned into the city, he hungered.

    19And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away.

    20And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away!

    21Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.

    22And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

    23¶ And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority?

    24And Jesus answered and said unto them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I in like wise will tell you by what authority I do these things.

    25The baptism of John, whence was it? from heaven, or of men? And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say unto us, Why did ye not then believe him?

    26But if we shall say, Of men; we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet.

    27And they answered Jesus, and said, We cannot tell. And he said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

    28¶ But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard.

    29He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.

    30And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not.

    31Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.

    32For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.

    33¶ Hear another parable: There was a certain householder, which planted a vineyard, and hedged it round about, and digged a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country:

    34And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.

    35And the husbandmen took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.

    36Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they did unto them likewise.

    37But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son.

    38But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.

    39And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.

    40When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?

    41They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.

    42Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes?

    43Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.

    44And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

    45And when the chief priests and Pharisees had heard his parables, they perceived that he spake of them.

    46But when they sought to lay hands on him, they feared the multitude, because they took him for a prophet.

    1AND it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said unto his disciples,

    2Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.

    3Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,

    4And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him.

    5But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among the people.

    6¶ Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

    7There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat.

    8But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?

    9For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.

    10When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.

    11For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.

    12For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial.

    13Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her.

    14¶ Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests,

    15And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver.

    16And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.

    17¶ Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover?

    18And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples.

    19And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover.

    20Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve.

    21And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

    22And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I?

    23And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.

    24The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.

    25Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.

    26¶ And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.

    27And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;
