A Translation of the New Testament from the original Greek: Humbly Attempted with a View to Assist the Unlearned with Clearer and More Explicit Views of the Mind of the Spirit in the Scriptures of Truth
Haweis, Thomas
Bible. New Testament
(20)Then began he to upbraid the cities in which the chief of his
miracles had been wrought, because they repented not: (21)Wo unto thee,
Chorazin! wo unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the miracles which had been
wrought in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, long since would they
have repented in sack-cloth and ashes. (22)Wherefore I say unto you, It
shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment than
for you. (23)And thou, Capernaum, who hast been exalted unto heaven,
shalt be cast down to hell: for if the miracles which have been wrought
in thee had been done in Sodom, it had remained unto this day.
(24)Wherefore I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the
land of Sodom in the day of judgment than for thee.
(25)At that time Jesus spake and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of
heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and the
intelligent, and hast revealed them to babes: (26)yes, Father! since
such is thy good pleasure. (27)All things are delivered up to me by my
Father: and no person knoweth the Son but the Father; neither knoweth
any person the Father but the Son, and he to whom the Son is pleased to
reveal him.
(28)Come to me, all who labour hard, and sustain heavy burdens, and I
will give you relief. (29)Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I
am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest to your souls.
(30)For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
CHAP. XII.
AT that time Jesus walked through corn-fields on a sabbath-day; and his
disciples were hungry, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.
(2)But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, Behold, thy
disciples do a thing that it is not lawful to do on the sabbath. (3)And
he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was hungry,
and they who were with him? (4)how they went into the house of God, and
did eat the loaves of shew-bread, of which it was not lawful for him or
those who were with him to eat, but for the priests alone? (5)Or have
ye not read in the law, that on the sabbaths the priests in the temple
profane the sabbath, and are not culpable? (6)Now I tell you, That one
greater than the temple is here. (7)But if ye had known what that
meant, I desire mercy and not sacrifice; ye would not have condemned
the innocent. (8)For the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
(9)And going on from thence, he came into their synagogue; (10)and,
behold a man was there who had a withered hand. And they asked him,
saying, Is it lawful to heal on sabbath days? that they might accuse
him. (11)Then he said to them; What man of you is there who hath one
sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath, doth he not lay hold
on him, and lift him out? (12)Of how much more value then is a man than
a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do good on the sabbath days.
(13)Then saith he to the man, Stretch out thy hand; and he stretched it
out, and it was restored, sound as the other.
