1
And he spokeG3004 a parableG3850 to them to thisG3588 end, that men oughtG1163 alwaysG3842 to pray,G4336 and not to faint;G1573
2
Saying,G3004 There was in a cityG4172 a judge,G2923 which fearedG5399 not God,G2316 neitherG3366 regardedG1788 man:G444
3
And there was a widowG5503 in that city;G4172 and she cameG2064 to him, saying,G3004 AvengeG1556 me of myG3450 adversary.G476
4
And he wouldG2309 not for a while:G5550 but afterwardG3326 G5023 he saidG2036 withinG1722 himself,G1438 ThoughG1499 I fearG5399 not God,G2316 norG3756 regardG1788 man;G444
5
YetG1065 becauseG1223 thisG5026 widowG5503 troublesG3930 G2873 me, I will avengeG1556 her, lestG2443 G3361 by her continualG1519 G5056 comingG2064 she wearyG5299 me.
6
And the LordG2962 said,G2036 HearG191 whatG5101 the unjustG93 judgeG2923 said.G3004
7
And shall not GodG2316 avengeG4160 his own elect,G1588 whichG3588 cryG994 dayG2250 and nightG3571 to him, thoughG2532 he bearG3114 longG3114 with them?
8
I tellG3004 you that he will avengeG4160 them speedily.G1722 G5034 NeverthelessG4133 when the SonG5207 of manG444 comes,G2064 shall he findG2147 faithG4102 onG1909 the earth?G1093
9
And he spokeG2036 thisG5026 parableG3850 to certainG5100 whichG3588 trustedG3982 in themselvesG1438 that they were righteous,G1342 and despisedG1848 others:G3062
10
TwoG1417 menG444 wentG305 up intoG1519 the templeG2411 to pray;G4336 the oneG1520 a Pharisee,G5330 and the otherG2087 a publican.G5057
11
The PhariseeG5330 stoodG2476 and prayedG4336 thusG5023 with himself,G1438 God,G2316 I thankG2168 you, that I amG1510 not as otherG3062 menG444 are, extortionists,G727 unjust,G94 adulterers,G3432 orG2228 evenG2532 as thisG3778 publican.G5057
12
I fastG3522 twiceG1364 in the week,G4521 I give tithesG586 of allG3956 that I possess.G2932
13
And the publican,G5057 standingG2476 afarG3113 off, wouldG2309 not liftG1869 up soG3761 muchG3761 as his eyesG3788 to heaven,G3772 but smoteG5180 on his breast,G4738 saying,G3004 GodG2316 be mercifulG2433 to me a sinner.G268
14
I tellG3004 you, thisG3778 man wentG2597 downG2597 to his houseG3624 justifiedG1344 rather thanG2228 the other:G1565 for everyG3956 one that exaltsG5312 himselfG1438 shall be abased;G5013 and he that humblesG5013 himselfG1438 shall be exalted.G5312
15
And they broughtG4374 to him alsoG2532 infants,G1025 that he would touchG680 them: but when his disciplesG3101 sawG1492 it, they rebukedG2008 them.
16
But JesusG2424 calledG4341 them to him, and said,G2036 SufferG863 littleG3813 childrenG3813 to comeG2064 to me, and forbidG2967 them not: for of suchG5108 is the kingdomG932 of God.G2316
17
TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, WhoeverG3739 G1437 shall not receiveG1209 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 as a littleG3813 childG3813 shall in noG3364 wise enterG1525 therein.G1519 G846
18
And a certainG5100 rulerG758 askedG1905 him, saying,G3004 GoodG18 Master,G1320 whatG5101 shall I doG4160 to inheritG2816 eternalG166 life?G2222
19
And JesusG2424 saidG2036 to him, WhyG5101 callG3004 you me good?G18 noneG3762 is good,G18 saveG1508 one,G1520 that is, God.G2316
20
You knowG1492 the commandments,G1785 Do not commitG3431 adultery,G3431 Do not kill,G5407 Do not steal,G2813 Do not bearG5576 falseG5576 witness,G5576 HonorG5091 your fatherG3962 and your mother.
21
And he said,G2036 AllG3956 theseG5023 have I keptG5442 from my youthG3503 up.
22
NowG1161 when JesusG2424 heardG191 theseG5023 things, he saidG2036 to him, YetG2089 lackG3007 you oneG1520 thing: sellG4453 allG3956 that you have,G2192 and distributeG1239 to the poor,G4434 and you shall haveG2192 treasureG2344 in heaven:G3772 and come,G1204 followG190 me.
23
And when he heardG191 this,G5023 he was veryG4970 sorrowful:G4036 for he was veryG4970 rich.G4145
24
And when JesusG2424 sawG1492 that he was veryG4036 sorrowful,G4036 he said,G2036 HowG4459 hardlyG1423 shall they that haveG2192 richesG5536 enterG1525 intoG1519 the kingdomG932 of God!G2316
25
For it is easierG2123 for a camelG2574 to goG1525 throughG1223 a needle'sG4476 eye,G5168 thanG2228 for a richG4145 man to enterG1525 intoG1519 the kingdomG932 of God.G2316
26
And they that heardG191 it said,G2036 WhoG5101 thenG2532 canG1410 be saved?G4982
27
And he said,G2036 The things which are impossibleG102 with menG444 are possibleG1415 with God.G2316
28
ThenG1161 PeterG4074 said,G2036 See,G2400 we have leftG863 all,G3956 and followedG190 you.
29
And he saidG2036 to them, TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, There is noG3762 manG3762 that has leftG863 house,G3614 orG2228 parents,G1118 orG2228 brothers,G80 orG2228 wife,G1135 orG2228 children,G5043 for the kingdomG932 of God'sG2316 sake,G1752
30
WhoG3739 shall not receiveG618 manifoldG4179 moreG4179 in thisG5129 present time,G2540 and in the worldG165 to comeG2064 lifeG2222 everlasting.G166
31
ThenG1161 he tookG3880 to him the twelve,G1427 and saidG2036 to them, Behold,G2400 we goG305 up to Jerusalem,G2414 and allG3956 things that are writtenG1125 by the prophetsG4396 concerning the SonG5207 of manG444 shall be accomplished.G5055
32
For he shall be deliveredG3860 to the Gentiles,G1484 and shall be mocked,G1702 and spitefullyG5195 entreated,G5195 and spittedG1716 on:G1716
33
And they shall whipG3146 him, and putG615 him to death:G615 and the thirdG5154 dayG2250 he shall riseG450 again.G450
34
And they understoodG4920 noneG3762 of theseG5130 things: and thisG5124 sayingG4487 was hidG2928 from them, neitherG2532 G3756 knewG1097 they the things which were spoken.G3004
35
And it cameG1096 to pass, that as he was comeG1448 nearG1448 to Jericho,G2410 a certainG5100 blindG5185 man satG2521 by the wayG3598 sideG3844 begging:G4319
36
And hearingG191 the multitudeG3793 passG1279 by, he askedG4441 whatG5101 it meant.G1498
37
And they toldG518 him, that JesusG2424 of NazarethG3478 passesG3928 by.
38
And he cried,G994 saying,G3004 Jesus,G2424 you SonG5207 of David,G1138 have mercyG1653 on me.
39
And they which wentG4254 beforeG4254 rebukedG2008 him, that he should holdG4623 his peace:G4623 but he criedG2896 soG3123 muchG4183 the more,G3123 You sonG5207 of David,G1138 have mercyG1653 on me.
40
And JesusG2424 stood,G2476 and commandedG2753 him to be broughtG71 to him: and when he was comeG1448 near,G1448 he askedG1905 him,
41
Saying,G3004 WhatG5101 willG2309 you that I shall doG4160 to you? And he said,G2036 Lord,G2962 that I may receiveG308 my sight.G308
42
And JesusG2424 saidG2036 to him, ReceiveG308 your sight:G308 your faithG4102 has savedG4982 you.
43
And immediatelyG3916 he receivedG308 his sight,G308 and followedG190 him, glorifyingG1392 God:G2316 and allG3956 the people,G2992 when they sawG1492 it, gaveG1325 praiseG136 to God.G2316
