53:4

Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

53:5

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

53:6

All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

53:7

He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.

53:8

He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.

53:9

And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.

53:10

Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.

53:11

He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.

53:12

Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

1:18

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

1:19

Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.

1:20

But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

1:21

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

1:22

Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

1:23

Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

1:24

Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

1:25

And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.

22:41

While the Pharisees (religious leaders) were gathered together, Jesus asked them,

22:42

Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The son of David.

22:43

He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying,

22:44

The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?

22:45

If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?

22:46

And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.

1:26

And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,

1:27

To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.

1:28

And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

1:29

And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.

1:30

And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

1:31

And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

1:32

He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

1:33

And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

1:34

Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

1:35

And the Angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

1:36

And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

1:37

For with God nothing shall be impossible.

1:38

And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

8:14

Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record {testimony} is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.

8:15

Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.

8:16

And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.

8:17

It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.

8:18

I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.

8:19

Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.

1:1

The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;

1:2

As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

1:3

The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

1:4

John {the Baptist} did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

1:5

And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins.

1:6

And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;

1:7

And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.

1:8

I indeed have baptized you with water: but He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.

1:9

And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.

1:10

And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:

1:11

And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

1:1

Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:

1:2

Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,

1:16

For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

1:17

For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

1:18

And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.

1:1

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

1:2

The same was in the beginning with God.

1:3

All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

1:14

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

1:29

The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.

1:30

This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.

1:31

And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.

1:32

And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.

1:33

And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is He which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost.

1:34

And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.

9:1

And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,

9:2

And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.

9:3

And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:

9:4

And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

9:5

And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

9:6

And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.

9:7

And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.

9:8

And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.

9:9

And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink.

9:10

And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.

9:11

And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth,

9:12

And hath seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hand on him, that he might receive his sight.

9:13

Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints at Jerusalem:

9:14

And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on thy name.

9:15

But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:

9:16

For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.
