In those G1565 days G2250 came G3854 John G2491 the Baptist, G910 preaching G2784 in the wilderness G2048 of Judaea, G2449

For this G3778 is he that was spoken G4483 of by the prophet G4396 Esaias, G2268 saying, G3004 The voice G5456 of one crying G994 in the wilderness, G2048 Prepare G2090 you the way G3598 of the Lord, G2962 make G4160 his paths G5147 straight. G2117

Then G5119 went G1607 out to him Jerusalem, G2414 and all G3956 Judaea, G2449 and all G3956 the region G4066 round G4066 about G4066 Jordan, G2446

But when he saw G1492 many G4183 of the Pharisees G5330 and Sadducees G4523 come G2064 to his baptism, G908 he said G2036 to them, O generation G1081 of vipers, G2191 who G5101 has warned G5263 you to flee G5343 from the wrath G3709 to come? G3195

And an highway H4547 shall be there, H8033 and a way, H1870 and it shall be called H7121 The way H1870 of holiness; H6944 the unclean H2931 shall not pass H5674 over H5674 it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring H1980 H1870 men, though fools, H191 shall not err H8582 therein.

Thus H3541 said H559 the LORD, H3068 Stand H5975 you in the ways, H1870 and see, H7200 and ask H7592 for the old H5769 paths, H5410 where H335 is the good H2896 way, H1870 and walk H3212 therein, and you shall find H4672 rest H4771 for your souls. H5315 But they said, H559 We will not walk H3212 therein.

Bring G4160 forth G4160 therefore G3767 fruits G2590 worthy G514 of repentance, G3341 and begin G756 not to say G3004 within G1722 yourselves, G1438 We have G2192 Abraham G11 to our father: G3962 for I say G3004 to you, That God G2316 is able G1410 of these G5130 stones G3037 to raise G1453 up children G5043 to Abraham. G11

And the people G3793 asked G1905 him, saying, G3004 What G5101 shall we do G4160 then? G3767

Then G1161 came G2064 also G2532 publicans G5057 to be baptized, G907 and said G2036 to him, Master, G1320 what G5101 shall we do? G4160

For it had been G2258 better G2909 for them not to have known G1921 the way G3598 of righteousness, G1343 than, G2228 after they have known G1921 it, to turn G1994 from the holy G40 commandment G1785 delivered G3860 to them.

The baptism G908 of John, G2491 from where G4159 was it? from heaven, G3772 or G2228 of men? G444 And they reasoned G1260 with themselves, G1438 saying, G3004 If G1437 we shall say, G2036 From heaven; G3772 he will say G2046 to us, Why G1302 did you not then G3767 believe G4100 him?

For John G2491 came G2064 neither G3383 eating G2068 nor G3383 drinking, G4095 and they say, G3004 He has G2192 a devil. G1140

And all G3956 the people G2992 that heard G191 him, and the publicans, G5057 justified G1344 God, G2316 being baptized G907 with the baptism G908 of John. G2491

But the Pharisees G5330 and lawyers G3544 rejected G114 the counsel G1012 of God G2316 against G1519 themselves, G1438 being not baptized G907 of him.

You sent G649 to John, G2491 and he bore G3140 witness G3140 to the truth. G225

He was a burning G2545 and a shining G5316 light: G3088 and you were willing G2309 for a season G5610 to rejoice G21 in his light. G5457

And as John G2491 fulfilled G4137 his course, G1408 he said, G3004 Whom G5101 think G5282 you that I am? G1511 I am G1510 not he. But, behold, G2400 there comes G2064 one after G3326 me, whose G3739 shoes G5266 of his feet G4228 I am G1510 not worthy G514 to loose. G3089

For they that dwell G2730 at G1722 Jerusalem, G2419 and their rulers, G758 because they knew G50 him not, nor G2532 yet the voices G5456 of the prophets G4396 which G3588 are read G314 every G3956 sabbath G4521 day, they have fulfilled G4137 them in condemning G2919 him.

And when G5613 they had fulfilled G5055 all G537 that was written G1125 of him, they took G2507 him down G2507 from the tree, G3586 and laid G5087 him in a sepulcher. G3419

And, behold, G2400 a woman G1135 in the city, G4172 which G3748 was a sinner, G268 when she knew G1921 that Jesus sat G345 at G345 meat in the Pharisee's G5330 house, G3614 brought G2865 an alabaster G211 box G211 of ointment, G3464

Now G1161 when the Pharisee G5330 which G3588 had bidden G2564 him saw G1492 it, he spoke G2036 within G1722 himself, G1438 saying, G3004 This G3778 man, if G1487 he were a prophet, G4396 would have known G1097 who G5101 and what G4217 manner G4217 of woman G1135 this G3588 is that touches G680 him: for she is a sinner. G268

There was a certain G5100 creditor G1157 which had G1510 two G1417 debtors: G5533 the one G1520 owed G3784 five G4001 hundred G4001 pence, G1220 and the other G2087 fifty. G4004

Simon G4613 answered G611 and said, G2036 I suppose G5274 that he, to whom G3739 he forgave G5483 most. G4119 And he said G2036 to him, You have rightly G3723 judged. G2919

You gave G1325 me no G3756 kiss: G5370 but this G3778 woman since G575 the time I came G1525 in has not ceased G1257 to kiss G2705 my feet. G4228

Why G3739 G5484 I say G3004 to you, Her sins, G266 which G3588 are many, G4183 are forgiven; G863 for she loved G25 much: G4183 but to whom G3739 little G3641 is forgiven, G863 the same loves G25 little. G3641

And they that sat G4873 at G345 meat with him began G756 to say G3004 within G1722 themselves, G1438 Who G5101 is this G3778 that forgives G863 sins G266 also? G2532

But my people H5971 would not listen H8085 to my voice; H6963 and Israel H3478 would H14 none H3808 of me.

So I gave H7971 them up to their own hearts' H3820 lust: H8307 and they walked H3212 in their own counsels. H4156

But they refused H3985 to listen, H7181 and pulled H5414 away the shoulder, H3802 and stopped H3513 their ears, H241 that they should not hear. H8085

Yes, they made H7760 their hearts H3820 as an adamant H8068 stone, H8068 lest H6435 they should hear H8085 the law, H8451 and the words H1697 which H834 the LORD H3068 of hosts H6635 has sent H7971 in his spirit H7307 by the former H7223 prophets: H5030 therefore came H1961 a great H1419 wrath H7110 from the LORD H3068 of hosts. H6635

And the Father G3962 himself, G846 which has sent G3992 me, has borne witness G3140 of me. You have neither G3777 heard G191 his voice G5456 at G4455 any G4455 time, G4455 nor G3777 seen G3708 his shape. G1491

Search G2045 the scriptures; G1124 for in them you think G1380 you have G2192 eternal G166 life: G2222 and they are they which testify G3140 of me.

In meekness G4236 instructing G3811 those G3588 that oppose G475 themselves; if G3379 God G2316 peradventure G3379 will give G1325 them repentance G3341 to the acknowledging G1922 of the truth; G225

Take heed, G991 brothers, G80 lest G3379 there be in any G5100 of you an evil G4190 heart G2588 of unbelief, G570 in departing G868 from the living G2198 God. G2316

If they shall fall G3895 away, G3895 to renew G340 them again G3825 to repentance; G3341 seeing they crucify G388 to themselves G1438 the Son G5207 of God G2316 afresh, G388 and put G3856 him to an open G3856 shame. G3856

But that which bears G1627 thorns G173 and briers G5146 is rejected, G96 and is near G1451 to cursing; G2671 whose G3739 end G5056 is to be burned. G2740

And I gave G1325 her space G5550 to repent G3340 of her fornication; G4202 and she repented G3340 not.
