Jesus

Then Iesus saide vnto him, Forbid ye him not: for he that is not against vs, is with vs.

And it came to passe, when the dayes were accomplished, that he should be receiued vp, he setled himselfe fully to goe to Hierusalem,

And sent messengers before him: and they went and entred into a towne of the Samaritans, to prepare him lodging.

But they woulde not receiue him, because his behauiour was, as though he would go to Hierusalem.

And when his disciples, Iames and Iohn sawe it, they saide, Lord, wilt thou that we commaund, that fire come downe from heauen, and consume them, euen as Elias did?

But Iesus turned about, and rebuked them, and said, Ye knowe not of what spirit ye are.

For the Sonne of man is not come to destroy mens liues, but to saue them. Then they went to another towne.

And it came to passe that as they went in the way, a certaine man said vnto him, I will follow thee, Lord, whithersoeuer thou goest.

And Iesus saide vnto him, The foxes haue holes, and the birdes of the heauen nestes, but the Sonne of man hath not whereon to lay his head.

But he said vnto another, Followe me. And the same said, Lord, suffer me first to goe and burie my father.

And Iesus said vnto him, Let the dead burie their dead: but go thou, and preache the kingdome of God.

Then another saide, I will follow thee, Lord: but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at mine house.

And Iesus saide vnto him, No man that putteth his hand to the plough, and looketh backe, is apt to the kingdome of God.

After these thinges, the Lord appointed other seuentie also, and sent them, two and two before him into euery citie and place, whither he himselfe should come.

And he said vnto them, The haruest is great, but the labourers are fewe: pray therefore the Lord of the haruest to sende foorth labourers into his haruest.

Goe your wayes: beholde, I send you foorth as lambes among wolues.

For I say to you, that it shall be easier in that day for them of Sodom, then for that citie.

He that heareth you, heareth me: and he that despiseth you, despiseth me: and he that despiseth me, despiseth him that sent me.

And the seuentie turned againe with ioy, saying, Lord, euen the deuils are subdued to vs through thy Name.

And he said vnto them, I sawe Satan, like lightening, fall downe from heauen.

Beholde, I giue vnto you power to treade on Serpents, and Scorpions, and ouer all the power of the enemie, and nothing shall hurt you.

That same houre reioyced Iesus in the spirit, and said, I confesse vnto thee, Father, Lord of heauen and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and vnderstanding, and hast reueiled them to babes: euen so, Father, because it so pleased thee.

All things are giuen me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Sonne is, but the Father: neither who the Father is, saue the Sonne, and he to whom the Sonne will reueile him.

And he turned to his disciples, and said secretly, Blessed are the eyes, which see that ye see.

For I tell you that many Prophets and Kings haue desired to see those things, which ye see, and haue not seene them: and to heare those things which ye heare, and haue not heard them.
