3 And Jesus answering said to them, “Did you not read even this that David did when he hungered, himself and those who are with him,
And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read so much as this, what David did, when himself was an hungred, and they which were with him;
4 how he went into the house of God, and took the Bread of the Presentation, and ate, and gave also to those with him, which it is not lawful to eat, except only to the priests?”
How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the shewbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?
5 And He said to them, “The Son of Man is Lord also of the Sabbath.”

8 And He Himself had known their reasonings and said to the man having the withered hand, “Rise, and stand in the midst”; and he having risen, stood.
But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.
9 Then Jesus said to them, “I will question you something: is it lawful on the Sabbaths to do good, or to do evil? To save life or to kill?”
Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy [it]?
10 And having looked around on them all, He said to the man, “Stretch forth your hand”; and he did so, and his hand was restored whole as the other;
And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.

18 who came to hear Him and to be healed of their diseases, [gathered]. And those harassed by unclean spirits [also gathered] and were healed.
And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed.
19 And all the multitude were seeking to touch Him, because power was going forth from Him, and He was healing all.
And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed [them] all.
20 And He, having lifted up His eyes to His disciples, said: “Blessed the poor—because yours is the Kingdom of God.
And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed [be ye] poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 Blessed those hungering now—because you will be filled. Blessed those weeping now—because you will laugh.
Blessed [are ye] that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed [are ye] that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
22 Blessed are you when men will hate you, and when they will separate you, and will reproach, and will cast forth your name as evil, for the Son of Man’s sake—
Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you [from their company], and shall reproach [you], and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake.

29 and to him striking you on the cheek, give also the other, and from him taking away from you the mantle, also the coat you may not keep back.
And unto him that smiteth thee on the [one] cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not [to take thy] coat also.
30 And to everyone who is asking of you, be giving; and from him who is taking away your goods, do not be asking again;
Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask [them] not again.
31 and as you wish that men may do to you, do also to them in like manner;
And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
32 and—if you love those loving you, what grace is it to you? For also the sinful love those loving them;
For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.
33 and if you do good to those doing good to you, what grace is it to you? For also the sinful do the same;
And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.
34 and if you lend [to those] of whom you hope to receive back, what grace is it to you? For also the sinful lend to sinners—that they may receive again as much.
And if ye lend [to them] of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.
35 But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Highest, because He is kind to the ungracious and evil;
But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and [to] the evil.
36 be therefore merciful, as also your Father is merciful.
Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
37 And do not judge, and you may not be judged; do not condemn, and you may not be condemned; release, and you will be released.
Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
38 Give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed, and shaken, and running over, they will give into your bosom; for with that measure with which you measure, it will be measured to you again.”
Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.
41 And why do you behold the speck that is in your brother’s eye, and do not consider the beam that [is] in your own eye?
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
42 Or how are you able to say to your brother, Brother, permit, I may take out the speck that [is] in your eye—yourself not beholding the beam in your own eye? Hypocrite, first take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that [is] in your brother’s eye.
Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother’s eye.
43 For there is not a good tree making bad fruit, nor a bad tree making good fruit;
For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
44 for each tree is known from its own fruit, for they do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they crop a grape from a bramble.
For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
45 The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which [is] good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which [is] evil; for out of the abounding of the heart his mouth speaks.
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
46 And why do you call Me, Lord, Lord, and do not do what I say?
And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
47 Everyone who is coming to Me, and is hearing My words, and is doing them, I will show you to whom he is like:
Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:
48 he is like to a man building a house, who dug and deepened, and laid a foundation on the rock, and a flood having come, the stream broke forth on that house, and was not able to shake it, for it had been founded on the rock.
He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
49 And he who heard and did not, is like to a man having built a house on the earth, without a foundation, against which the stream broke forth, and immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house became great.”
But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.
