1: InG1722 these [times],G3739 having been gathered togetherG1996 theG3588 myriadsG3461 of theG3588 crowdG3793 so asG5620 to trample uponG2662 one another,G0240 He beganG0756 to sayG3004 toG4314 theG3588 disciplesG3101 of HimG0846 first,G4412 Take heedG4337 to yourselvesG1438 ofG0575 theG3588 leaven,G2219 whichG3748 isG1510 hypocrisy,G5272 of theG3588 Pharisees.G5330

2: NothingG3762 nowG1161 concealed upG4780 is,G1510 whichG3739 notG3756 will be revealed,G0601 norG2532 hiddenG2927 whichG3739 notG3756 will be known.G1097

3: Instead,G0473 thatG3739 whateverG3745 inG1722 theG3588 darknessG4653 you have said,G2036 inG1722 theG3588 lightG5457 will be heard;G0191 andG2532 whatG3739 intoG4314 theG3588 earG3775 you have spokenG2980 inG1722 theG3588 inner roomsG5009 will be proclaimedG2784 uponG1909 theG3588 housetops.G1430

4: I sayG3004 nowG1161 to you,G4771 thoseG3588 friendsG5384 of Me,G1473 notG3361 you should fearG5399 becauseG0575 of thoseG3588 killingG0615 theG3588 bodyG4983 andG2532 afterG3326 these thingsG3778 notG3361 being ableG2192 more abundantlyG4053 anythingG5100 to do.G4160

5: I will showG5263 howeverG1161 youG4771 whomG5101 you should fear:G5399 FearG5399 the [One who]G3588 afterG3326 theG3588 killing,G0615 hasG2192 authorityG1849 to castG1685 intoG1519 -G3588 hell.G1067 Yes,G3483 I sayG3004 to you,G4771 HimG3778 fear.G5399

6: NotG3780 fiveG4002 sparrowsG4765 are sold forG4453 assarionG0787 two?G1417 AndG2532 oneG1520 ofG1537 themG0846 notG3756 isG1510 forgottenG1950 beforeG1799 -G3588 God.G2316

7: ButG0235 evenG2532 theG3588 hairsG2359 of theG3588 headG2776 of youG4771 allG3956 have been numbered.G0705 NotG3361 fear,G5399 than manyG4183 sparrowsG4765 you are more valuable.G1308

8: I sayG3004 nowG1161 to you,G4771 everyoneG3956 whoG3739 -G0302 will confessG3670 inG1722 MeG1473 beforeG1715 theG3588 men,G0444 alsoG2532 theG3588 SonG5207 -G3588 of ManG0444 will confessG3670 inG1722 himG0846 beforeG1715 theG3588 angelsG0032 -G3588 of God;G2316

9: the [one]G3588 nowG1161 having deniedG0720 MeG1473 beforeG1799 -G3588 men,G0444 will be deniedG0533 beforeG1799 theG3588 angelsG0032 -G3588 of God.G2316

10: AndG2532 everyoneG3956 whoG3739 will speakG2046 a wordG3056 againstG1519 theG3588 SonG5207 -G3588 of Man,G0444 it will be forgivenG0863 him;G0846 the [one]G3588 howeverG1161 againstG1519 theG3588 HolyG0040 SpiritG4151 having blasphemed,G0987 notG3756 will be forgiven.G0863

11: WhenG3752 thenG1161 they bringG1533 youG4771 beforeG1909 theG3588 synagogues,G4864 andG2532 theG3588 rulers,G0746 andG2532 theG3588 authorities,G1849 notG3361 be anxiousG3309 howG4459 orG2228 whatG5101 you shall reply in defense,G0626 orG2228 whatG5101 you should say;G2036

12: theG3588 forG1063 HolyG0040 SpiritG4151 will teachG1321 youG4771 inG1722 sameG0846 theG3588 hourG5610 whatG3739 it behooves [you]G1163 to say.G2036

13: SaidG2036 thenG1161 oneG5100 fromG1537 theG3588 crowdG3793 to Him,G0846 Teacher,G1320 sayG2036 to theG3588 brotherG0080 of meG1473 to divideG3307 withG3326 meG1473 theG3588 inheritance.G2817

14: -G3588 AndG1161 He saidG2036 to him,G0846 Man,G0444 whoG5101 MeG1473 appointedG2525 a judgeG2923 orG2228 partitionerG3312 overG1909 you?G4771

15: He saidG2036 thenG1161 toG4314 them,G0846 BewareG3708 andG2532 keep yourselvesG5442 fromG0575 allG3956 covetousness;G4124 forG3754 notG3756 inG1722 theG3588 abundanceG4052 to anyone,G5100 theG3588 lifeG2222 to himG0846 isG1510 ofG1537 that whichG3588 possessesG5225 of him.G0846

16: He spokeG2036 thenG1161 a parableG3850 toG4314 them,G0846 saying,G3004 Of a manG0444 certainG5100 richG4145 brought forth abundantlyG2164 theG3588 ground.G5561

17: AndG2532 he was reasoningG1260 withinG1722 himself,G1438 saying,G3004 WhatG5101 shall I do,G4160 forG3754 notG3756 I haveG2192 whereG4226 I will store upG4863 theG3588 fruitsG2590 of me?G1473

18: AndG2532 he said,G2036 ThisG3778 will I do:G4160 I will tear downG2507 myG1473 -G3588 barnsG0596 andG2532 greaterG3173 will build,G3618 andG2532 will store upG4863 thereG1563 allG3956 theG3588 grainG4621 andG2532 theG3588 goodsG0018 of me.G1473

19: AndG2532 I will sayG2046 to theG3588 soulG5590 of me,G1473 Soul,G5590 you haveG2192 manyG4183 good thingsG0018 laid upG2749 forG1519 yearsG2094 many;G4183 take your rest;G0373 eat,G5315 drink,G4095 be merry.G2165

20: SaidG2036 thenG1161 to himG0846 -G3588 God,G2316 Fool!G0878 ThisG3778 -G3588 night,G3571 theG3588 soulG5590 of youG4771 is requiredG0523 ofG0575 you;G4771 whatG3739 nowG1161 you did prepare—G2090 to whomG5101 will [it] be?G1510

21: So [is]G3779 the [one]G3588 treasuring upG2343 for himself,G1438 andG2532 notG3361 towardG1519 GodG2316 being rich.G4147

22: He saidG2036 thenG1161 toG4314 theG3588 disciplesG3101 of Him,G0846 Because ofG1223 thisG3778 I sayG3004 to you,G4771 notG3361 be anxiousG3309 for theG3588 life,G5590 whatG5101 you should eat,G5315 norG3366 for theG3588 bodyG4983 of you,G4771 whatG5101 you should put on.G1746

23: TheG3588 forG1063 lifeG5590 more thanG4119 isG1510 theG3588 food,G5160 andG2532 theG3588 bodyG4983 than theG3588 clothing.G1742

24: ConsiderG2657 theG3588 ravens,G2876 thatG3754 notG3756 they sowG4687 norG3761 reap;G2325 to themG3739 notG3756 there isG1510 a storehouseG5009 norG3761 barn—G0596 andG2532 -G3588 GodG2316 feedsG5142 them.G0846 How muchG4214 moreG3123 youG4771 are valuableG1308 than theG3588 birds!G4071

25: WhichG5101 nowG1161 ofG1537 you,G4771 being anxious,G3309 is ableG1410 toG1909 theG3588 lifespanG2244 of himG0846 to addG4369 one hour?G4083

26: IfG1487 thenG3767 not evenG3761 [the] leastG1646 you are able [to do],G1410 whyG5101 aboutG4012 theG3588 restG3062 are you anxious?G3309

27: ConsiderG2657 theG3588 lilies,G2918 howG4459 they grow:G0837 NotG3756 do they labor,G2872 norG3761 do they spin.G3514 I sayG3004 howeverG1161 to you,G4771 not evenG3761 SolomonG4672 inG1722 allG3956 theG3588 gloryG1391 of himG0846 was arrayedG4016 asG5613 oneG1520 of these.G3778

28: IfG1487 howeverG1161 in [the]G1722 fieldG0068 theG3588 grass,G5528 being [here]G1510 todayG4594 andG2532 tomorrowG0839 intoG1519 the furnaceG2823 being thrown,G0906 -G3588 GodG2316 thusG3779 clothes,G0294 how muchG4214 moreG3123 you,G4771 O [you] of little faith!G3640

29: AndG2532 youG4771 notG3361 seekG2212 whatG5101 you might eat,G5315 andG2532 whatG5101 you might drink,G4095 andG2532 notG3361 be in suspense;G3349

30: these thingsG3778 forG1063 allG3956 theG3588 nationsG1484 of theG3588 worldG2889 seek after;G1934 of youG4771 nowG1161 theG3588 FatherG3962 knowsG1492 thatG3754 you have needG5535 of these.G3778

31: ButG4133 seek youG2212 theG3588 kingdomG0932 of Him,G0846 andG2532 these thingsG3778 will be addedG4369 to you.G4771

32: NotG3361 fear,G5399 -G3588 littleG3398 flock,G4168 forG3754 took delightG2106 theG3588 FatherG3962 of youG4771 to giveG1325 youG4771 theG3588 kingdom.G0932

33: SellG4453 theG3588 possessionsG5225 of youG4771 andG2532 giveG1325 alms;G1654 makeG4160 to yourselvesG1438 pursesG0905 notG3361 growing old,G3822 a treasureG2344 unfailingG0413 inG1722 theG3588 heavens,G3772 whereG3699 thiefG2812 notG3756 does draw near,G1448 norG3761 mothG4597 destroy.G1311

34: WhereG3699 forG1063 isG1510 theG3588 treasureG2344 of you,G4771 thereG1563 alsoG2532 theG3588 heartG2588 of youG4771 will be.G1510

35: Let beG1510 yourG4771 -G3588 waistG3751 girded about,G4024 andG2532 theG3588 lampsG3088 burning;G2545

36: andG2532 you,G4771 likeG3664 to menG0444 waiting forG4327 theG3588 masterG2962 of themselves,G1438 wheneverG4219 he shall returnG0360 fromG1537 theG3588 wedding feasts,G1062 thatG2443 having comeG2064 andG2532 having knocked,G2925 immediatelyG2112 they might openG0455 to him.G0846

37: Blessed [are]G3107 theG3588 servantsG1401 those,G1565 whomG3739 having come,G2064 theG3588 masterG2962 will findG2147 watching.G1127 TrulyG0281 I sayG3004 to youG4771 thatG3754 he will gird himselfG4024 andG2532 will make reclineG0347 them,G0846 andG2532 having come up,G3928 will serveG1247 them.G0846

38: And ifG2579 inG1722 theG3588 secondG1208 and ifG2579 inG1722 theG3588 thirdG5154 watchG5438 he comesG2064 andG2532 finds [them]G2147 thus,G3779 blessedG3107 areG1510 those!G1565

39: ThisG3778 howeverG1161 know,G1097 thatG3754 ifG1487 had knownG1492 theG3588 master of the houseG3617 in whatG4169 hourG5610 theG3588 thiefG2812 is coming,G2064 he would have watchedG1127 notG3756 -G0302 andG2532 he would have allowedG0863 to be broken intoG1358 theG3588 houseG3624 of him.G0846

40: AlsoG2532 youG4771 beG1096 ready;G2092 forG3754 in theG3739 hourG5610 notG3756 you expect,G1380 theG3588 SonG5207 -G3588 of ManG0444 comes.G2064

41: SaidG2036 thenG1161 -G3588 Peter,G4074 Lord,G2962 toG4314 usG1473 theG3588 parableG3850 thisG3778 speak You,G3004 orG2228 alsoG2532 toG4314 all?G3956

42: AndG2532 saidG2036 theG3588 Lord,G2962 WhoG5101 thenG0686 isG1510 theG3588 faithfulG4103 managerG3623 [and] theG3588 wise,G5429 whomG3739 will setG2525 theG3588 masterG2962 overG1909 theG3588 care [of servants]G2322 of him,G0846 -G3588 to give [them]G1325 inG1722 seasonG2540 theG3588 measure of food?G4620

43: Blessed [is]G3107 theG3588 servantG1401 thatG1565 whomG3739 having come,G2064 theG3588 masterG2962 of himG0846 will findG2147 doingG4160 thus.G3779

44: Of a truthG0230 I sayG3004 to youG4771 thatG3754 overG1909 allG3956 theG3588 possessionsG5225 of himG0846 he will setG2525 him.G0846

45: IfG1437 howeverG1161 should sayG2036 theG3588 servantG1401 thatG1565 inG1722 theG3588 heartG2588 of him,G0846 DelaysG5549 theG3588 masterG2962 of MeG1473 to come,G2064 andG2532 should beginG0756 to beatG5180 theG3588 men-servantsG3816 andG2532 theG3588 maid-servants,G3814 to eatG2068 alsoG5037 andG2532 to drinkG4095 andG2532 to get drunk,G3182

46: will comeG2240 theG3588 masterG2962 of theG3588 servantG1401 thatG1565 inG1722 a dayG2250 in whichG3739 notG3756 he does expect,G4328 andG2532 inG1722 an hourG5610 thatG3739 notG3756 he knows,G1097 andG2532 he will cut in twoG1371 himG0846 andG2532 theG3588 placeG3313 of himG0846 withG3326 theG3588 unbelieversG0571 will appoint.G5087

47: ThatG1565 nowG1161 -G3588 servant,G1401 the [one]G3588 having knownG1097 theG3588 willG2307 of theG3588 masterG2962 of himG0846 andG2532 notG3361 having prepared,G2090 norG2228 having doneG4160 according toG4314 theG3588 willG2307 of him,G0846 will be beaten withG1194 many [blows];G4183

48: the [one]G3588 howeverG1161 notG3361 having known,G1097 having doneG4160 howeverG1161 [things] worthyG0514 of stripes,G4127 will be beaten withG1194 few.G3641 EveryoneG3956 nowG1161 to whomG3739 has been givenG1325 much,G4183 muchG4183 will be requiredG2212 fromG3844 him;G0846 andG2532 to whomG3739 has been committedG3908 much,G4183 the moreG4053 will they ask ofG0154 him.G0846

49: FireG4442 I cameG2064 to castG0906 uponG1909 theG3588 earth,G1093 andG2532 howG5101 I wishG2309 ifG1487 alreadyG2235 it be kindled!G0381

50: BaptismG0908 howeverG1161 I haveG2192 to be baptized [with],G0907 andG2532 howG4459 I am distressedG4912 untilG2193 whileG3755 it should be accomplished!G5055

51: Think youG1380 thatG3754 peaceG1515 I cameG3854 to giveG1325 onG1722 theG3588 earth?G1093 No,G3780 I sayG3004 to you,G4771 butG0235 ratherG2228 division.G1267

52: There will beG1510 forG1063 fromG0575 -G3588 nowG3568 fiveG4002 inG1722 oneG1520 houseG3624 divided,G1266 threeG5140 againstG1909 two,G1417 andG2532 twoG1417 againstG1909 three.G5140

53: They will be dividedG1266 fatherG3962 againstG1909 sonG5207 andG2532 sonG5207 againstG1909 father,G3962 motherG3384 againstG1909 -G3588 daughterG2364 andG2532 daughterG2364 againstG1909 -G3588 mother,G3384 mother-in-lawG3994 againstG1909 theG3588 daughter-in-lawG3565 of herG0846 andG2532 daughter-in-lawG3565 againstG1909 -G3588 mother-in-law.G3994

54: He was sayingG2036 nowG1161 alsoG2532 to theG3588 crowds,G3793 WhenG3752 you seeG3708 aG3588 cloudG3507 rising upG0393 fromG1909 [the] west,G1424 immediatelyG2112 you sayG3004 -,G3754 A showerG3655 is coming,G2064 andG2532 it happensG1096 so.G3779

55: AndG2532 whenG3752 a south windG3558 is blowing,G4154 you sayG3004 -,G3754 HeatG2742 there will be,G1510 andG2532 it happens.G1096

56: Hypocrites!G5273 TheG3588 appearanceG4383 of theG3588 earthG1093 andG2532 of theG3588 skyG3772 you know [how]G1492 to discern;G1381 theG3588 timeG2540 howeverG1161 this,G3778 howG4459 notG3756 do you knowG1492 to discern?G1381

57: WhyG5101 nowG1161 evenG2532 forG0575 yourselvesG1438 notG3756 judge youG2919 what [is]G3588 right?G1342

58: AsG5613 forG1063 you are goingG5217 withG3326 theG3588 adversaryG0476 of youG4771 beforeG1909 a magistrate,G0758 inG1722 theG3588 wayG3598 giveG1325 earnestnessG2039 to be set freeG0525 fromG0575 him,G0846 lestG3361 everG4219 he should drag awayG2694 youG4771 toG4314 theG3588 judge,G2923 andG2532 theG3588 judgeG2923 youG4771 will deliverG3860 to theG3588 officer,G4233 andG2532 theG3588 officerG4233 youG4771 will castG0906 intoG1519 prison.G5438

59: I sayG3004 to you,G4771 noG3756 notG3361 shall you come outG1831 from thereG1564 untilG2193 evenG2532 theG3588 lastG2078 leptonG3016 you shall have paid.G0591
