The Wicked Servant

Matthew 18:1


At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

Matthew 18:2


And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,

Matthew 18:3


And said, Verily I say unto you, except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 18:4


Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 18:5


And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.

Matthew 18:6


But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and [that] he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

Matthew 18:7


woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!

Matthew 18:8


Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast [them] from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

Matthew 18:9


And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast [it] from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.

Matthew 18:10


Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 18:11


For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

Matthew 18:12


How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?

Matthew 18:13


And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoiceth more of that [sheep], than of the ninety and nine which went not astray.

Matthew 18:14


Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.

Matthew 18:15


Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

Matthew 18:16


But if he will not hear [thee, then] take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

Matthew 18:17


And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell [it] unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as a heathen man and a publican.

Matthew 18:18


Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Matthew 18:19


Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 18:20


For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

Matthew 18:21


Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

Matthew 18:22


Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

Matthew 18:23


Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.

Matthew 18:24


And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.

Matthew 18:25


But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

Matthew 18:26


The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

Matthew 18:27


Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.

Matthew 18:28


But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took [him] by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.

Matthew 18:29


And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

Matthew 18:30


And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.

Matthew 18:31


So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

Matthew 18:32


Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:

Matthew 18:33


Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?

Matthew 18:34


And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.

Matthew 18:35


So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.

The Sower and the Seed

Matthew 13:1


The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.

Matthew 13:2


And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.

Matthew 13:3


And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;

Matthew 13:4


And when he sowed, some [seeds] fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:

Matthew 13:5


Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:

Matthew 13:6


And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

Matthew 13:7


And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:

Matthew 13:8


But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

Matthew 13:9


Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Matthew 13:10


And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?

Matthew 13:11


He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

Matthew 13:12


For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.

Matthew 13:13


Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

Matthew 13:14


And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:

Matthew 13:15


For this people's heart is waxed gross, and [their] ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with [their] eyes and hear with [their] ears, and should understand with [their] heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

Matthew 13:16


But blessed [are] your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.

Matthew 13:17


For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous [men] have desired to see [those things] which ye see, and have not seen [them]; and to hear [those things] which ye hear, and have not heard [them].

Matthew 13:18


Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.

Matthew 13:19


When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth [it] not, then cometh the wicked [one], and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

Matthew 13:20


But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;

Matthew 13:21


Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

Matthew 13:22


He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

Matthew 13:23


But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth [it]; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

Matthew 13:24


Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

Matthew 13:25


But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

Matthew 13:26


But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

Matthew 13:27


So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

Matthew 13:28


He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

Matthew 13:29


But he said, nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

Matthew 13:30


Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

Matthew 13:31


Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:

Matthew 13:32


Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.

Matthew 13:33


Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

Matthew 13:34


All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:

Matthew 13:35


That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

Matthew 13:36


Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.

Matthew 13:37


He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;

Matthew 13:38


The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked [one];

Matthew 13:39


The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

Matthew 13:40


As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

Matthew 13:41


The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;

Matthew 13:42


And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 13:43


Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Matthew 13:44


Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.

Matthew 13:45


Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:

Matthew 13:46


Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

Matthew 13:47


Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:

Matthew 13:48


Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.

Matthew 13:49


So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,

Matthew 13:50


And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 13:51


Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.

Matthew 13:52


Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe [which is] instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man [that is] an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure [things] new and old.

Matthew 13:53


And it came to pass, [that] when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.

Matthew 13:54


And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this [man] this wisdom, and [these] mighty works?

Matthew 13:55


Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?

Matthew 13:56


And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this [man] all these things?

Matthew 13:57


And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.

Matthew 13:58


And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

Jesus Meets the Pharisees

Matthew 10:1


And when he had called unto [him] his twelve disciples, he gave them power [against] unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.

Matthew 10:2


Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James [the son] of Zebedee, and John his brother;

Matthew 10:3


philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James [the son] of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;

Matthew 10:4


Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

Matthew 10:5


These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the gentiles, and into [any] city of the Samaritans enter ye not:

Matthew 10:6


But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Matthew 10:7


And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Matthew 10:8


Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.

Matthew 10:9


Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,

Matthew 10:10


Nor scrip for [your] journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.

Matthew 10:11


And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, inquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.

Matthew 10:12


And when ye come into an house, salute it.

Matthew 10:13


And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.

Matthew 10:14


And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.

Matthew 10:15


Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

Matthew 10:16


Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

Matthew 10:17


But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;

Matthew 10:18


And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.

Matthew 10:19


But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.

Matthew 10:20


For it is not ye that speak, but the spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.

Matthew 10:21


And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against [their] parents, and cause them to be put to death.

Matthew 10:22


And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.

Matthew 10:23


But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.

Matthew 10:24


The disciple is not above [his] master, nor the servant above his lord.

Matthew 10:25


It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more [shall they call] them of his household?

Matthew 10:26


Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.

Matthew 10:27


What I tell you in darkness, [that] speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, [that] preach ye upon the housetops.

Matthew 10:28


And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

Matthew 10:29


Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.

Matthew 10:30


But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.

Matthew 10:31


Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.

Matthew 10:32


Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 10:33


But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 10:34


Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

Matthew 10:35


For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

Matthew 10:36


And a man's foes [shall be] they of his own household.

Matthew 10:37


He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

Matthew 10:38


And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.

Matthew 10:39


He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.

Matthew 10:40


He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

Matthew 10:41


He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.

Matthew 10:42


And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold [water] only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.

The Sermon on the Mount

Matthew 5:1


And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:

Matthew 5:2


And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

Matthew 5:3


Blessed [are] the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 5:4


Blessed [are] they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

Matthew 5:5


Blessed [are] the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

Matthew 5:6


Blessed [are] they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

Matthew 5:7


Blessed [are] the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

Matthew 5:8


Blessed [are] the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

Matthew 5:9


Blessed [are] the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

Matthew 5:10


Blessed [are] they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 5:11


Blessed are ye, when [men] shall revile you, and persecute [you], and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

Matthew 5:12


Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great [is] your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Matthew 5:13


Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

Matthew 5:14


Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

Matthew 5:15


Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

Matthew 5:16


Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 5:17


think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

Matthew 5:18


For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

Matthew 5:19


Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach [them], the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 5:20


For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed [the righteousness] of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 5:21


Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:

Matthew 5:22


But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

Matthew 5:23


Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;

Matthew 5:24


Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.

Matthew 5:25


Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.

Matthew 5:26


Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.

Matthew 5:27


Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

Matthew 5:28


But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

Matthew 5:29


And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast [it] from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not [that] thy whole body should be cast into hell.

Matthew 5:30


And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast [it] from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not [that] thy whole body should be cast into hell.

Matthew 5:31


It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:

Matthew 5:32


But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

Matthew 5:33


Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:

Matthew 5:34


But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:

Matthew 5:35


Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.

Matthew 5:36


Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.

Matthew 5:37


But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

Matthew 5:38


Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:

Matthew 5:39


But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.

Matthew 5:40


And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have [thy] cloak also.

Matthew 5:41


And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.

Matthew 5:42


Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.

Matthew 5:43


Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

Matthew 5:44


But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

Matthew 5:45


That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

Matthew 5:46


For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

Matthew 5:47


And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more [than others]? do not even the publicans so?

Matthew 5:48


Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

Curing the SIck

Matthew 8:1


When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.

Matthew 8:2


And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

Matthew 8:3


And Jesus put forth [his] hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

Matthew 8:4


And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, show thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

Matthew 8:5


And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,

Matthew 8:6


And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.

Matthew 8:7


And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.

Matthew 8:8


The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.

Matthew 8:9


For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this [man], Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth [it].

Matthew 8:10


When Jesus heard [it], he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

Matthew 8:11


And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 8:12


But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 8:13


And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, [so] be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.

Matthew 8:14


And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.

Matthew 8:15


And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.

Matthew 8:16


When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with [his] word, and healed all that were sick:

Matthew 8:17


That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare [our] sicknesses.

Matthew 8:18


Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he gave commandment to depart unto the other side.

Matthew 8:19


And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.

Matthew 8:20


And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air [have] nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay [his] head.

Matthew 8:21

Matthew 8:22


But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.

Matthew 8:23


And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him.

Matthew 8:24


And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.

Matthew 8:25


And his disciples came to [him], and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.

Matthew 8:26


And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.
