Matthew 13~15

[bonita]

Matthew 13

1.  That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake.
2. Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people stood on the shore.
3. Then he told them many things in parables, saying,"A farmer went out to sow his seed.
4. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along teh path, and tghe birds came and ate it up.
5. Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil, It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow.
6. But when the sun came up, then plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root,
7. Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants,
8. Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop- a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown
9. He who has ears, let him hear,"
10. The disciples came to him anda sked, "Why do yo speak to the people in parables?"
11. He replied,"The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them.
12. Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance, Whoever does not have even what he has will be taken from him.
13. This is why I speak to them in parables; "Though seeing they do not see through hearing they do not bear or understand.
14. In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah; "You will be ever hearing but never understaning ,you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
15. For this people's heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears,and they have closed their eyes, Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.
16. But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.
17. For I tell you the truth, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see but did not hear it,
18. "Listen then to what the parable of teh sower means,
19. When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path.
20. The one who recevied the seed that fell on rocky places is the man who hears teh word and at once receives it with joy,
21. But since he has no root, he lasts only a short time, When touble or persecution comes because of the word, he quikly falls away.
22. The one who received the seed.that fell among the thorns is the man who hears teh word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke it, making it unfruitful.
23. But the one who received the seed that fell on good soil is the man who hears the word and understands it, He produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thity times what was sown.
24. Jesus told them another parable,"The kingdom, of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.
25. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came ands sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away.
26. When the wheat sprouted andf ormed heads, then the weeds also appeared.
27. "The owner's servants came to him and said, "Sir didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?
28. "An enemy did this, he replied," The servants asked him. Do you want us to go and pull them up?
29. "No, he answered, because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the wheat with them.
30. Let both grow together until the harvest, At that time I will tell the harvesters, First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my  barn,"
31. He told them another parable," The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field.
32. Though it is the smallest of all your seeds, yet when it grows ,it is the largest of arden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of teh air come and perch in its branches,"
33. He told them still another parable," The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a  woman took and mixed into a large amount of flour until it worked all through the dough."
34. Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd to parables he did not say anything to them without using a parable.
35. So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet;"I will open my nouth in parables, I will utter things hidden since teh creation of the world."
36. Then he left the crowd and went into the house, his disciples came to him and said, "Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field,"
37. He answered, "The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man.
38. The field is the world and theg ood seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are tehs ons of thee vil one,
39. and the enemy who sows them is the devil, The harvest is the end of the age; and teh ahrvesters anre angels.
40. "As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of thea ge.
41. The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil
42. They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
43. Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father, he who has ears, let him hear.
44. "The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, When a man found it, he hid it again, and ten on his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field.
45. "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls.
46. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.
47. "Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish.
48. When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on teh shore, Then they sat down and collected the good fish in baskets, but threw the bad away.
49. This is how it will be at the end of the age, The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous 
50. and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
51. "Have you understood all these things?" Jesus asked,"Yes," they replied.
52. He said to them, "Therefore every teacher of the law who has been instructed about the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of a house who brings out of his storeroom new treasures as well as old."
53. When Jesus had finished these parables, he moved on from there,
54. Coming to his hometown , he began teaching the people in their synagogue, and they were amazed,"Where did this man get this wosdom and these miraculous powers?"they asked.
55. "Isn;t this the carpenter's son? Isn;t his mother's name Mary, and aren't his brothers James, Joseph, Sonon and Judas?
56. Aren;t all hisn sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?"
57. And they took offense at him town and in his own house is a prophet with out honor."
58. And he did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith.

Matthew 14

1. At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus,
2. and he said to his attendants," This is John the Baptist; he has risen from thd dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him,"
3. Now Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison because of Herodias, his brother, Philip's wife.
4. for John had been saying to him,"It is not lawful for you to have her,"
5. Herod wanted to kill John , but he was afraid of the people, because they considered him a prophet.
6. On Herod's nirthday thed aughter of Herodias danced for them and pleased Herod so much
7. that he [romised with an oath to give her whatever shea sked.
8. Prompted by her mother, she said,"Give me here on a platter the head of John teh Baptist,"
9. The king was distressed, but because of his oaths and his dinner guests, he ordered that her request be granted.
10. and had John beheaded in the prison.
11. His head was brought in on a platter and given to the girl, who carried it to her mother,
12. John's disciples came and took his body and buried it, Then they went and told Jesus.
13. When Jesus heard what had happened he withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place, Hearing of this, the croweds followed him on foot from the towns,
14. When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick.
15. As evering approached , the disciples came to him and said,"This is a remote place and it's already getting late, Send the crowds away, so they can go to the villages and buy temselves some food."
16. Jesus replied, "They do not need tog o away , You give them something to eat,:
17. "We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish," they answered,
18. "Bring tbem here to me," he said,
19. And he directed the people to sit down on the grass, Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.
20. They all ate and were satisfied and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
21. The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children.
22. Immediately Jesus made the disciples get ino the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd.
23. After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray.When evening came, he was there alone.
24. but the boat was already a considrable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.
25. During the fourth watch of the night Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake.When the disciples saw him walking on teh lake
26. When thd disciples saw him walking on the lake , they were terrified,"It 's a ghost," they said , and cried out in fear.
27. But Jesus immediately said to them;" Take courage; It is I, Don;t be afraid."
28. "Lord, if it's you," Peter replied, "tell me to come to you on the water."
29. "Come," he saud, Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water andc ame toward Jesus.
30. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and beginning to sink, cird out,:Lord, save me!:
31. Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caughjt him."You of little faith,: he said, "why did you doubt?"
32. And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down.
33. Then those who were in the boat worshiped him ,saying," Truly you are the Son of God."
34. When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret.
35. And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding country. People brought all their sick to him.
36. and negged him to let the sick just touch the edge of his cloak, and all who touched him were healed.

Matthew 15

1. Then some Pharisees and leachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked.
2. "Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They don't wash their hands before they eat!"
3. Jesus replied," And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition>
4. For God said, Honor your father and mother must be put tod eath,
5. But you say that if a mans ays to his father or mother. Wharever help you might otherwise have received from me is a gift devoted to God, 
6. he is not to honor his father, with it, This you nullify the word of God for thes ake of your tradition,
7. You hypocrites! Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you:
8. "These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.
9. They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men,
10. Jesus called tehc rowed to him and said,"Listen and understand
11. When goes into a man's mouth does not make him unclean, but what comes out of his mouth, that is what makes him unclean,"
12. Then then disciples came to him anda sked,"Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?"
13. He replied," Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by tghe roots
14. Leave them, theya re blind guides , If a blind man leads a blind man both will fall into a pit."
15. Peter said, " Explain the parable to us,"
16. "Are yous till so dull>" Jesus asked them.
17. "Don't you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body?
18. But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these make a man unclean.
19. For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft,f alse testimony, slander,
20. These are what make a man unclean, but eating with unwashed hands does not make him unclean."
21. Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region pf Ture and Sidon.
22. A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is sulffering terribly from demon-possession."
23. Jesus did not answer a word, So his disciples came to him and urged him, "Send ciples came to him and urged him,"Send her away , for she keeps crying out after us."
24. He answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel."
25. The woman came and knelt before him, "Lord ,help me!" she said.
26. He replied,"It is not right to take the children's bread and toss ot to theoir dogs."
27. "Yes, Lord," she said,"but even the dogs eat the cxrumbs that fall from their masters table."
28. Then Jesus answered, "Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted," And her daughter was healed from that very hour.
29. Jesus left there and went along the Sea of Galilee. Then he went up on a mountainside and sat down.
30. Great crowds came to him, bringing the lame, the blind ,the crippled, tje mite and many others, and laid them at his feet; and he healed them.
31. The people were amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled made well, the lame walking and the blind seeing, And they praised the God of Israel.
32. Jesus called his disciples to him and said,"I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing go eat, I do not want tos end them away hungry.or they may collapse on the way,"
33. His disciples answered," When could we get enough bread in this remote place to feed such a crowd?"
34. "Haw many loaves do you have?" Jesus asked."Seven,:they replied, "and a few small fish,"
35. He told the crowd to sit down on the ground.
36. Then he took thes even loaves and the fish, and when he ahd given thanks, he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and they in turn and gave them to the disciples, and they in turn to the people.
37. They all ate and were satisfied, Afterward the disciples picked up seven baskefuls of broken pieces that were left over,
38. The number of those whoa te was four thousand, besaides women and children
39. After Jesus had sent thec rowd away , he got into the boat and went to the vicinity of Magadan.
