1 In * g1722 the mean time * g3739, when there were gathered together * g1996 g5685 an innumerable multitude * g3461 of people * g3793, insomuch that * g5620 they trode * g2662 g5721 one upon another * g240, he began * g756 g5662 to say * g3004 g5721 unto * g4314 his * g846 disciples * g3101 first of all * g4412, Beware * g4337 g5720 ye * g1438 of * g575 the leaven * g2219 of the Pharisees * g5330, which * g3748 is * g2076 g5748 hypocrisy * g5272.
2 For * g1161 there is * g2076 g5748 nothing * g3762 covered * g4780 g5772, that * g3739 shall * g601 not * g3756 be revealed * g601 g5701; neither * g2532 hid * g2927, that * g3739 shall * g1097 not * g3756 be known * g1097 g5701.
3 Therefore * g473 * g3739 whatsoever * g3745 ye have spoken * g2036 g5627 in * g1722 darkness * g4653 shall be heard * g191 g5701 in * g1722 the light * g5457; and * g2532 that which * g3739 ye have spoken * g2980 g5656 in * g4314 the ear * g3775 in * g1722 closets * g5009 shall be proclaimed * g2784 g5701 upon * g1909 the housetops * g1430.
4 And * g1161 I say * g3004 g5719 unto you * g5213 my * g3450 friends * g5384, Be * g5399 not * g3361 afraid * g5399 g5676 of them * g575 that kill * g615 g5723 the body * g4983, and * g2532 after * g3326 that * g5023 have * g2192 g5723 no * g3361 * g5100 more * g4055 that they can do * g4160 g5658.
5 But * g1161 I will forewarn * g5263 g5692 you * g5213 whom * g5101 ye shall fear * g5399 g5680: Fear * g5399 g5676 him, which after * g3326 he hath killed * g615 g5658 hath * g2192 g5723 power * g1849 to cast * g1685 g5629 into * g1519 hell * g1067; yea * g3483, I say * g3004 g5719 unto you * g5213, Fear * g5399 g5676 him * g5126.
6 Are * g4453 not * g3780 five * g4002 sparrows * g4765 sold * g4453 g5743 for two * g1417 farthings * g787, and * g2532 not * g3756 one * g1520 of * g1537 them * g846 is * g2076 g5748 forgotten * g1950 g5772 before * g1799 God * g2316?
7 But * g235 even the very * g2532 hairs * g2359 of your * g5216 head * g2776 are * g705 all * g3956 numbered * g705 g5769. Fear * g5399 g5737 not * g3361 therefore * g3767: ye are of more value * g1308 g5719 than many * g4183 sparrows * g4765.
8 Also * g1161 I say * g3004 g5719 unto you * g5213, Whosoever * g3956 * g3739 * g302 shall confess * g3670 g5661 * g1722 me * g1698 before * g1715 men * g444, * g1722 him * g846 shall * g3670 the Son * g5207 of man * g444 also * g2532 confess * g3670 g5692 before * g1715 the angels * g32 of God * g2316:
9 But * g1161 he that denieth * g720 g5666 me * g3165 before * g1799 men * g444 shall be denied * g533 g5701 before * g1799 the angels * g32 of God * g2316.
10 And * g2532 whosoever * g3956 * g3739 shall speak * g2046 g5692 a word * g3056 against * g1519 the Son * g5207 of man * g444, it shall be forgiven * g863 g5701 him * g846: but * g1161 unto him that blasphemeth * g987 g5660 against * g1519 the Holy * g40 Ghost * g4151 it shall * g863 not * g3756 be forgiven * g863 g5701.
11 And * g1161 when * g3752 they bring * g4374 g5725 you * g5209 unto * g1909 the synagogues * g4864, and * g2532 unto magistrates * g746, and * g2532 powers * g1849, take * g3309 ye no * g3361 thought * g3309 g5720 how * g4459 or * g2228 what thing * g5101 ye shall answer * g626 g5667, or * g2228 what * g5101 ye shall say * g2036 g5632:
12 For * g1063 the Holy * g40 Ghost * g4151 shall teach * g1321 g5692 you * g5209 in * g1722 the same * g846 hour * g5610 what * g3739 ye ought * g1163 g5748 to say * g2036 g5629.
13 And * g1161 one * g5100 of * g1537 the company * g3793 said * g2036 g5627 unto him * g846, Master * g1320, speak * g2036 g5628 to my * g3450 brother * g80, that he divide * g3307 g5670 the inheritance * g2817 with * g3326 me * g1700.
14 And * g1161 he said * g2036 g5627 unto him * g846, Man * g444, who * g5101 made * g2525 g5656 me * g3165 a judge * g1348 or * g2228 a divider * g3312 over * g1909 you * g5209?
15 And * g1161 he said * g2036 g5627 unto * g4314 them * g846, Take heed * g3708 g5720, and * g2532 beware * g5442 g5732 of * g575 covetousness * g4124: for * g3754 a man's * g5100 * g846 life * g2222 consisteth * g2076 g5748 not * g3756 in * g1722 the abundance * g4052 g5721 of * g1537 the things which he * g846 possesseth * g5224 g5723.
16 And * g1161 he spake * g2036 g5627 a parable * g3850 unto * g4314 them * g846, saying * g3004 g5723, The ground * g5561 of a certain * g5100 rich * g4145 man * g444 brought forth plentifully * g2164 g5656:
17 And * g2532 he thought * g1260 g5711 within * g1722 himself * g1438, saying * g3004 g5723, What * g5101 shall I do * g4160 g5661, because * g3754 I have * g2192 g5719 no * g3756 room where * g4226 to bestow * g4863 g5692 my * g3450 fruits * g2590?
18 And * g2532 he said * g2036 g5627, This * g5124 will I do * g4160 g5692: I will pull down * g2507 g5692 my * g3450 barns * g596, and * g2532 build * g3618 g5692 greater * g3187; and * g2532 there * g1563 will I bestow * g4863 g5692 all * g3956 my * g3450 fruits * g1081 and * g2532 my * g3450 goods * g18.
19 And * g2532 I will say * g2046 g5692 to my * g3450 soul * g5590, Soul * g5590, thou hast * g2192 g5719 much * g4183 goods * g18 laid up * g2749 g5740 for * g1519 many * g4183 years * g2094; take thine ease * g373 g5732, eat * g5315 g5628, drink * g4095 g5628, and be merry * g2165 g5744.
20 But * g1161 God * g2316 said * g2036 g5627 unto him * g846, Thou fool * g878, this * g5026 night * g3571 thy * g4675 soul * g5590 shall be required * g523 g5719 of * g575 thee * g4675: then * g1161 whose * g5101 shall those things be * g2071 g5704, which * g3739 thou hast provided * g2090 g5656? thy...: Gr. do they require thy soul
21 So * g3779 is he that layeth up treasure * g2343 g5723 for himself * g1438, and * g2532 is * g4147 not * g3361 rich * g4147 g5723 toward * g1519 God * g2316.
22 And * g1161 he said * g2036 g5627 unto * g4314 his * g846 disciples * g3101, Therefore * g1223 * g5124 I say * g3004 g5719 unto you * g5213, Take * g3309 no * g3361 thought * g3309 g5720 for your * g5216 life * g5590, what * g5101 ye shall eat * g5315 g5632; neither * g3366 for the body * g4983, what * g5101 ye shall put on * g1746 g5672.
23 The life * g5590 is * g2076 g5748 more * g4119 than meat * g5160, and * g2532 the body * g4983 is more than raiment * g1742.
24 Consider * g2657 g5657 the ravens * g2876: for * g3754 they neither * g3756 sow * g4687 g5719 nor * g3761 reap * g2325 g5719; which * g3739 neither * g3756 have * g2076 g5748 storehouse * g5009 nor * g3761 barn * g596; and * g2532 God * g2316 feedeth * g5142 g5719 them * g846: how much * g4214 more * g3123 are * g1308 ye * g5210 better than * g1308 g5719 the fowls * g4071?
25 And * g1161 which * g5101 of * g1537 you * g5216 with taking thought * g3309 g5723 can * g1410 g5736 add * g4369 g5629 to * g1909 his * g846 stature * g2244 one * g1520 cubit * g4083?
26 If * g1487 ye then * g3767 be * g1410 not * g3777 able to do * g1410 g5736 that thing which is least * g1646, why * g5101 take ye thought * g3309 g5719 for * g4012 the rest * g3062?
27 Consider * g2657 g5657 the lilies * g2918 how * g4459 they grow * g837 g5719: they toil * g2872 g5719 not * g3756, they spin * g3514 g5719 not * g3761; and yet * g1161 I say * g3004 g5719 unto you * g5213, that Solomon * g4672 in * g1722 all * g3956 his * g846 glory * g1391 was * g4016 not * g3761 arrayed * g4016 g5639 like * g5613 one * g1520 of these * g5130.
28 If * g1487 then * g1161 God * g2316 so * g3779 clothe * g294 g5719 the grass * g5528, which g5607 g5752 is to day * g4594 in * g1722 the field * g68, and * g2532 to morrow * g839 is cast * g906 g5746 into * g1519 the oven * g2823; how much * g4214 more * g3123 will he clothe you * g5209, O ye of little faith * g3640?
29 And * g2532 seek * g2212 g5720 not * g3361 ye * g5210 what * g5101 ye shall eat * g5315 g5632, or * g2228 what * g5101 ye shall drink * g4095 g5632, * g2532 neither * g3361 be ye of doubtful mind * g3349 g5744. neither...: or, live not in careful suspense
30 For * g1063 all * g3956 these things * g5023 do * g1934 the nations * g1484 of the world * g2889 seek after * g1934 g5719: and * g1161 your * g5216 Father * g3962 knoweth * g1492 g5758 that * g3754 ye have need * g5535 g5719 of these things * g5130.
31 But rather * g4133 seek ye * g2212 g5720 the kingdom * g932 of God * g2316; and * g2532 all * g3956 these things * g5023 shall be added * g4369 g5701 unto you * g5213.
32 Fear * g5399 g5737 not * g3361, little * g3398 flock * g4168; for * g3754 it is * g2106 your * g5216 Father's * g3962 good pleasure * g2106 g5656 to give * g1325 g5629 you * g5213 the kingdom * g932.
33 Sell * g4453 g5657 that ye * g5216 have * g5224 g5723, and * g2532 give * g1325 g5628 alms * g1654; provide * g4160 g5657 yourselves * g1438 bags * g905 which wax * g3822 not * g3361 old * g3822 g5746, a treasure * g2344 in * g1722 the heavens * g3772 that faileth not * g413, where * g3699 no * g3756 thief * g2812 approacheth * g1448 g5719, neither * g3761 moth * g4597 corrupteth * g1311 g5719.
34 For * g1063 where * g3699 your * g5216 treasure * g2344 is * g2076 g5748, there * g1563 will * g2071 your * g5216 heart * g2588 be * g2071 g5704 also * g2532.
35 Let * g2077 your * g5216 loins * g3751 be * g2077 g5749 girded about * g4024 g5772, and * g2532 your lights * g3088 burning * g2545 g5746;
36 And * g2532 ye yourselves * g5210 like * g3664 unto men * g444 that wait * g4327 g5740 for their * g1438 lord * g2962, when * g4219 he will return * g360 g5692 from * g1537 the wedding * g1062; that * g2443 when he cometh * g2064 g5631 and * g2532 knocketh * g2925 g5660, they may open * g455 g5661 unto him * g846 immediately * g2112.
37 Blessed * g3107 are those * g1565 servants * g1401, whom * g3739 the lord * g2962 when he cometh * g2064 g5631 shall find * g2147 g5692 watching * g1127 g5723: verily * g281 I say * g3004 g5719 unto you * g5213, that * g3754 he shall gird himself * g4024 g5698, and * g2532 make * g347 them * g846 to sit down to meat * g347 g5692, and * g2532 will come forth * g3928 g5631 and serve * g1247 g5692 them * g846.
38 And * g2532 if * g1437 he shall come * g2064 g5632 in * g1722 the second * g1208 watch * g5438, or * g2532 come * g2064 g5632 in * g1722 the third * g5154 watch * g5438, and * g2532 find * g2147 g5632 them so * g3779,
