Bible. Matthew
40:004:012 Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he
departed into Galilee;
40:004:013 And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is
upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:
40:004:014 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the
prophet, saying,
40:004:015 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of
the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;
40:004:016 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them
which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung
up.
40:004:017 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for
the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
40:004:018 And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren,
Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into
the sea: for they were fishers.
40:004:019 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers
of men.
40:004:020 And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.
40:004:021 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the
son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee
their father, mending their nets; and he called them.
40:004:022 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and
followed him.
40:004:023 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their
synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and
healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among
the people.
40:004:024 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto
him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and
torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and
those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and
he healed them.
40:004:025 And there followed him great multitudes of people from
Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from
Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.
40:005:001 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and
when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
40:005:002 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
40:005:003 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of
heaven.
40:005:004 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
40:005:005 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
40:005:006 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after
righteousness: for they shall be filled.
40:005:007 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
40:005:008 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
40:005:009 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the
children of God.
