CHAPTER 12.

DeSdI lO pluCk Llle ediS ol Soi II, oA" I to eat.
 l 2. But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy de- ciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day. 3. But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hupgred and they that were with | him;
 4. How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him. but only for the priests? ,. Or have ye not read in the law, how that ol tile sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sab bath, and are blameless?
 6. But say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.
 7. But if ye had known what this meaneth, l will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemn ed the guiltness.
 8. For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.
 9. And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:
 10. And, behold, there was man which had his hand withered And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day? that they might accuse him.
 h. And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out :?
 F. How much then is a man better than sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.
 IS. Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it forth; and it was restor- ed whole, like as the other. IA. Then the Pharisees went out, and held council against him, how they might destroy him.
 15. But when Jesus knew it, he | withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all. | 16. And charged them that they should not make him known: l 17. That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying.
 IS. Behold my servant, whom l have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is we'll pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall show judgment to the Gentiles.
 19. He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.
 20. A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.
 I 21. And in his name shall tho II Gentiles trust.
 P. Then was brought unto him one II possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomucl that the blind and dumb both spakt and saw.
 23. And all the people were amazed and said, Is not this the son Q David?
 I "A. But when the Pharisee heard Il it, they said, This fellow doth no cast out devils, but by Beelzebub thu ] prince of the devils. ! 20. And Jesus knew their thoughts and said unto them, Every Kingdom divided against itself is brough t' desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall. not stand ,l 26. And if Satan cast out Satan, h
 is divided against himself; how shal 1, then his kingdom stand? ,l P. And if I by Belezebub cast ou devils, by whom do your children cas
 them out? therefore they shall b your judges.
 n 2S. But if l cast out devils by tn I Spirit of God, then the kingdom o }; God is come unto you. ,l 29. Or else how can one enter int : a strong mans house, and spoil hi f goods, except he first bind the stron : man? and then he will spoil hi house.
 30 He that is not with me i
 afainst me; and he that gathereth no
 with me scattereth abroad.
 31. Wherefore I say unto you, Al
 manner of sin and blasphemy shal
 be forgiven unto men: but the bias phemy against the Holy Ghost shal
 not be forgiven unto men.
 32. And whosoever speaketh
 word against the Son of man. it shal
 be forgiven him: but whosoeve . speaketh against the Holy Ghost, F shall not be forgiven him, neither i this world, neither in the world t , come.
 ol B. Either make the tree good, an ] his fruit good; or else make the ire corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: 10 l the tree is known by his fruit.
 34. o generation of vipers, how ca
 ye. being evil, speak good things? flo
 out of the abundance of the hear tn
 mouth speaketh
 l 35. A good man out of the goo
 treasure of the heart bringeth fort
 good things: and an evil man out (
 the evil treasure bringeth forth ev
 things.
 f 36. But I say unto you, That ever a idle word that men shall speak, the i shall give account thereof on the da d of judgment.
 e 37. For by thy words thou shalt b justified, and by thy, words thou shal n be condemned
