28 And he said to them: This kind can go out by nothing but by prayer and fasting.

17 Who, wheresoever he tak-cretly asked him: Why could eth him, dasheth him, and he not we cast him out? foameth, and gnasheth with the teeth, and pineth away: and I spoke to thy disciples to cast him out, and they could not. 18 Who answering them, said: O incredulous generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.

19 And they brought him. And when he had seen him, immediately the spirit troubled him; and being thrown down upon the ground, he rolled about foaming.

20 And he asked his father: How long time is it since this hath happened unto him? But he said: From his infancy:

21 And oftentimes hath he cast him into the fire and into waters, to destroy him. But if thou canst do anything, help us, having compassion on us.

22 And JESUS saith to him: If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that be lieveth.

23 And immediately the father of the boy crying out, with tears said: I do believe, Lord; help my unbelief.

24 And when JESUS saw the multitude running together, he threatened the unclean spirit, saying to him: Deaf and dumb spirit, I command thee, go out of him and enter not any more into him.

25 And crying out, and greatly tearing him, he went out of him, and he became as dead, so that many said: He is dead.

26 But JESUS taking him by the hand, lifted him up; and he

arose.

29 And departing from thence they passed through Galilee, and he would not that any man should know it.

30 And he taught his disciples and said to them: The son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men, and they shall kill him, and after that he is killed he shall rise again the third day.

31 But they understood not the word: and they were afraid to ask him.

32 And they came to Capharnaum. And when they were in the house, he asked them: What did you treat of in the way?

33 But they held their peace, for in the way they had disputed among themselves which of them should be the greatest.

34 And sitting down, he called the twelve, and saith to them: If any man desire to be first, he shall be the last of all, and the minister of all.

85 And taking a child, he set him in the midst of them. Whom when he had embraced, he saith to them:

36 Whosoever shall receive one such child as this in my name, receiveth me. And whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.

37 John answered him, saying: Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, who

followeth not us, and we forbad bfm.

38 But JESUS said: Do not forbid him. For there is no man that doth a miracle in my name, and can soon speak ill of

me.

39 For he that is not against you, is for you.

40 For whosoever shall give you to drink a cup of water in my name, because you belong to Christ: Amen I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.

48 For every one shall be salted with fire: and every victim shall be salted with salt.

49 Salt is good. But if the salt become unsavoury; wherewith will you season it? Have salt in you, and have peace among you.

scandalize one of these little ones that believe in me: it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.

42 d And if thy hand scandalize thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life, maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into unquenchable fire:

43 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.

44 And if thy foot scandalize thee, cut it off. It is better for thee to enter lame into life everlasting, than having two feet, to be cast into the hell of unquenchable fire:

45 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.

46 And if thy eye scandalize thee, pluck it out. It is better for thee with one eye to enter into the kingdom of God, than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire:

47 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not extinguished.

he cometh into the coasts of Judea, beyond the Jordan: and the multitudes flock to him again. And as he was accustomed, he taught them again.

2 And the Pharisees coming to him asked him: Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him.

3 But he answering, saith to them: What did Moses command you?

4 Who said: Moses permitted to write a bill of divorce, and to put her away.

5 To whom JESUS answering, said: Because of the hardness of your heart he wrote you that precept.

6 But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female.

7 For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother; and shall cleave to his wife. 8 And they two shall be in one flesh. Therefore now they are not two, but one flesh.

9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
