sure in heaven and come, fol- them an hundred fold, and shall inherit eternal life.

low me:

22 but, when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful; for he had many possessions.

23 Then said Jesus to his disciples, Verily I tell you, that a rich man will hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven:

24 and again I tell you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

25 And when his disciples heard this, they were exceed ingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?

26 but Jesus, looking on them, said to them, With men, this is impossible; but with God, all things are possible.

27 Then Peter answered and said to him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what then will be for us?

28 and Jesus said to them, Luke, xxii. 29. Verily I tell you, that in the regeneration, when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also, who have followed me, shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel:

29 and every one who hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive for

30 But, many who are first, will be last; and who are last, will be first:

31 for, the kingdom of heaven is like an householder, who went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard:

32 and when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.

33 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace:

34 and he said to them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you and they went away.

:

35 Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.

36 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing, and saith to them, Why stand ye here idle all the day?

no

37 they say to him, Because one hath hired us: he saith to them, Go ye also into the vineyard.

38 And when evening was come, the lord of the vineyard saith to his steward, Call the labourers, and pay them their hire, beginning from the last to the first:

39 and when they came that

were hired about the eleventh

hour, they received every one a penny :

40 but, when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; yet they likewise received every one a penny :

41 and when they had received it, they murmured against the householder,

42 saying, These last have worked but one hour, yet thou hast made them equal to us, who have borne the burden and heat of the day:

43 but he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou with me for a penny? agree

44 take that which is thine, and go away: I will give to this last, even as to thee:

45 is it not lawful for me to do what I will with my own? is thine eye evil, because I am good?

46 Thus, the last will be first, and the first last.

3 and will deliver him to the Gentiles, to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify him: but, on the third day he will rise again.

4 Then the mother of Zebedee's children came to him, with her sons, worshipping him, and asking something of him : 5 and he said to her, What wilt thou? and she said to him, That these my two sons may sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left, in thy kingdom:

6 but Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask: are ye able to drink of the cup that I am about to drink? They say to him, We are able.

7 And he saith to them, Ye shall indeed drink of my cup; but, to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, except to them for whom it is prepared by my Father.

8 And when the ten heard it, they were moved with indignation against the two brothers:

9 but Jesus called them to him, and said, Ye know that the rulers of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and they that are great exercise authority against them:

10 it is not so among you; but, whosoever wisheth to be great among you, shall be your minister;

11 and whosoever wisheth to

be chief among you, shall be your servant:

12 as the Son of man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

13 And as they went out from Jericho, a great multitude followed him :

14 and, behold, two blind men who were sitting by the way-side, when they heard that Jesus was passing by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou Son of David!

15 and the multitude charged them, that they should be silent but they cried out the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou Son of David! 16 And Jesus stopped, and called them; and said, What wish ye that I should do to you?

17 they say to him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened: 18 and Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: : and immediately their Luke, xviii. eyes saw, and they followed him.

19 And when they drew near to Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage at the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,

20 saying to them, Go to

the village over against you, and ye will straightway find an ass tied, and a colt with her:

loose them, and bring them to

me:

21 and if any one say any thing to you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and he will straightway send them. 22 But all this was done, that the word might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying,

23"Tell ye the daughter of Zech. ix. 9. "Sion, Behold, thy King com"eth to thee, meek, and sit

ting on an ass, and a colt the "foal of an ass."

24 And the disciples went, and did as Jesus had commanded them;

25 and they brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and set him thereon:

26 and most of the multitude spread their garments on the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them on the way:

27 and the multitudes that went before, and that followed him, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David! "Blessed Ps. cxviii. 26. "is he who cometh in the and xix. 38.

3 And Jesus went into the temple, and cast out all who sold and bought in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them that sold doves; 4 and said to them, It is written, "My house shall be "called an house of prayer;" but ye have made it, "a den of "thieves."

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

6 But, when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things which he did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, "Hosanna to the "Hosanna to the "son of David;" they were filled with indignation:

diately the fig-tree withered

away:

11 and when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How instantly the fig-tree is withered away!

12 but Jesus answered and said to them, Verily I tell 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 say to this mountain, Be thou taken up, and cast into the sea; it shall be done :

13 and all things whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

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

15 And Jesus answered and said to them, I also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, I will likewise tell you by what authority I do these things:

16 from whence was the baptism of John? from heaven, or from men? and they reasoned within themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say to us, Why then did ye not believe him?

17 but if we say, From men;

we fear the people; for all hold John as a prophet:

18 and they answered Jesus, and said, We know not: and he said to them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.

19 But what think ye ? A man had two sons; and he went to the first, and said, Son, go, work to day in my vineyard;

20 and he answered and said, I will, sir; but he went not:

21 and he went to the second, and said in like manner; and he answered and said, I will not, but afterward he repented, and went:

22 which of the two did the will of his father? They say to him, The last.

23 Jesus saith to them, Verily I tell you, that the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you:

24 for, John came to you in the way of justification, nevertheless ye believed him not; yet the publicans and the harlots believed him and ye, when ye had seen this, repented not afterward to believe in him.

25 Hear ye another parable: A certain householder planted Mark, xii. 1. a vineyard, and raised a fence round it, and dug a wine-vat in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went to another country:

26 and when the season of the fruit drew near, he sent

his servants to the husbandmen, to receive the fruits of it:

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

28 Again, he sent other servants, more than the first: and they did to them in like

manner.

29 And last of all he sent to them his son, saying, They will respect my son :

30 but when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and keep his inheritance:

31 and they took him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.

32 When, therefore, the lord of the vineyard cometh, what will he do to those husbandmen?
