And, behold, a woman who was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years came behind him and touched the hem of his garment;
for she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be free.
But Jesus turned around, and when he saw her, he said, Trust, daughter; thy faith has made thee free. And the woman was free from that hour.
¶ And when Jesus departed from there, two blind men followed him, crying out and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us.
And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yes, Lord.
Then he touched their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.
And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no one knows it.
¶ Then certain scribes and Pharisees of Jerusalem came unto Jesus, saying,
Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.
But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother, and, He that curses father or mother, let him die without recourse.
But ye say, Whosoever shall say to his father or his mother, Whatever I might have helped thee with is already my offering unto God,
and now has no need to honour his father or his mother with succour. Thus ye have made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition.
Ye hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
This people draws nigh unto me with their mouth and honours me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
But in vain do they worship me, teaching doctrines and commandments of men.
¶ And calling the multitude unto him, he said unto them, Hear and understand:
not that which goes into the mouth defiles the man; but that which comes out of the mouth, this defiles the man.
Then his disciples came and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this word?
But he answered and said, Every plant which my heavenly Father has not planted shall be rooted up.
Let them alone; they are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into a pit.
Then Peter answered and said unto him, Declare unto us this parable.
And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?
Do not ye yet understand that whatever enters in at the mouth goes into the belly and is cast out into the draught?
But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart, and they defile the man.
For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
these are the things which defile the man, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile the man.
¶ Then Jesus left there and departed into the parts of Tyre and Sidon.
And, behold, a woman of Canaan having come out of the same borders cried unto him, saying, Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me; my daughter is sick, possessed by a demon.
But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away, for she cries out after us.
But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Then she came and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help me.
But he answered and said, It is not good to take the children’s bread and to cast it to the little dogs.
And she said, Yes, Lord, yet the little dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters’ table.
Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith; be it unto thee even as thou desire. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.
¶ And Jesus left there and came nigh unto the sea of Galilee and went up into the mountain and sat down there.
And many people came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many other sick and cast them down at Jesus’ feet; and he healed them,
insomuch that the multitude wondered when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see, and they glorified the God of Israel.
Then Jesus called his disciples unto him and said, I have mercy on the multitude because they persevere with me now three days and have nothing to eat, and I desire not to send them away fasting lest they faint in the way.
Then his disciples say unto him, From where do we have so much bread in the wilderness as to satisfy so great a multitude?
And Jesus said unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven and a few little fishes.
And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.
And he took the seven loaves and the fishes and gave thanks and broke them and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
And they all ate and were filled, and they took up of the broken food that was left seven baskets full.
And those that ate were four thousand men besides women and children.
And he sent away the multitude and took ship and came into the borders of Magdala.
¶ Now well along on the sabbath, as it began to dawn on the first of the sabbaths, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
And, behold, there was a great earthquake, for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone from the door and sat upon it.
His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow;
and for fear of him the guards shook and became as dead men.
And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye, for I know that ye seek Jesus, who was crucified.
He is not here, for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
And go quickly and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goes before you into Galilee; there ye shall see him; behold, I have told you.
And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy and ran to bring his disciples word.
And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, Receive joy. And they came and held him by the feet and worshipped him.
Then Jesus said unto them, Be not afraid; go tell my brothers that they may go into Galilee, and there they shall see me.
¶ Now when they were going, behold, some of the guard came into the city and reported unto the chief priests all the things that were done.
And when they were assembled with the elders and had taken counsel, they gave a large amount of money to the soldiers,
saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night and stole him away while we slept.
And if this comes to the governor’s ears, we will persuade him and make you secure.
So they took the money and did as they were taught, and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.
¶ Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into the mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
And when they saw him, they worshipped him; but some doubted.
And Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and, behold, I am with you always even unto the end of the age. Amen.
And Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe this, all things are possible to him that believes.
And passing by in the morning, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
Then Peter, remembering, said unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou didst curse is withered away.
And Jesus, answering, said unto them, Have faith in God.
For verily I say unto you that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Remove thyself and cast thyself into the sea, and shall not doubt in his heart but shall believe that what he says shall be done whatsoever he says shall be done unto him.
Therefore I say unto you that everything that ye ask for, praying, believe that ye receive it, and it shall come upon you.
¶ And it came to pass as he went to Jerusalem that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
And as he entered into a certain village, ten men that were lepers met him, who stood afar off
and lifted up their voices and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
When he saw them, he said unto them, Go show yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass that as they went, they were cleansed.
Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back and with a loud voice glorified God
and fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks; and he was a Samaritan.
And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?
Were there not found any returning to give glory to God, except this stranger?
And he said unto him, Arise, go; thy faith has saved thee.
¶ And it came to pass that as he came near unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat beside the way begging,
and hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what this might be.
And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth passes by.
And he cried out, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
And those who went before rebuked him that he should remain silent; but he cried out so much the more, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
And Jesus stopped and commanded him to be brought unto him, and when he was come near, he asked him,
saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may see.
And Jesus said unto him, See; thy faith has saved thee.
And immediately he saw and followed him, glorifying God; and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.
¶ And a certain man sat at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother’s womb, who never had walked;
this man heard Paul speak, who steadfastly beholding him and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,
said with a loud voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.
¶ Faith, therefore, is the substance of things waited for, the evidence of things not seen.
For by it the elders obtained a good report.
Through faith we understand that the ages were framed by the word of God, that which is seen being made of that which was not seen.
¶ By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts, and by it he being dead yet speaks.
By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death, and was not found because God had translated him, for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
But without faith it is impossible to please God; for he that comes to God must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of those that diligently seek him.
and the prayer of faith shall cause the one who is sick to be saved, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he has committed sins, he shall be forgiven them.
