And he
entered again into the synagogue; and there was a
man there which had a withered hand.
02 And they watched him, whether he would heal
him on the sabbath day; that they might accuse
him.
03 And he saith unto the man which had the
withered hand, Stand forth.
04 And he saith unto them, Is it
lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do
evil? to save life, or to kill? But they
held their peace.
05 And when he had looked round about on them
with anger, being grieved for the hardness of
their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch
forth thine hand. And he stretched it out:
and his hand was restored whole as the other.
06 And the Pharisees went forth, and straightway
took counsel with the Herodians against him, how
they might destroy him.
07 But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples
to the sea: and a great multitude from Galilee
followed him, and from Judaea,
08 And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from
beyond Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon, a
great multitude, when they had heard what great
things he did, came unto him.
09 And he spake to his disciples, that a small
ship should wait on him because of the multitude,
lest they should throng him.
10 For he had healed many; insomuch that they
pressed upon him for to touch him, as many as had
plagues.
11 And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell
down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the
Son of God.
12 And he straitly charged them that they should
not make him known.
13 And he goeth up into a mountain, and calleth
unto him whom he would: and they came unto him.
14 And he ordained twelve, that they should be
with him, and that he might send them forth to
preach,
15 And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to
cast out devils:
16 And Simon he surnamed Peter;
17 And James the son of Zebedee, and John the
brother of James; and he surnamed them Boanerges,
which is, The sons of thunder:

18 And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and
Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of
Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite,
19 And Judas Iscariot, which also betrayed him:
and they went into an house.
20 And the multitude cometh together again, so
that they could not so much as eat bread.
21 And when his friends heard of it, they went
out to lay hold on him: for they said, He is
beside himself.
22 And the scribes which came down from Jerusalem
said, He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the
devils casteth he out devils.
23 And he called them unto him, and said unto
them in parables, How can Satan cast out
Satan?
24 And if a kingdom be
divided against itself, that kingdom cannot
stand.
25 And if a house be
divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
26 And if Satan rise up
against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand,
but hath an end.
27 No man can enter into a
strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except
he will first bind the strong man; and then he
will spoil his house.
28 Verily I say unto you,
All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men,
and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall
blaspheme:
29 But he that shall
blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never
forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal
damnation.
30 Because they said, He hath an
unclean spirit.
31 There came then his brethren and his mother,
and, standing without, sent unto him, calling
him.
32 And the multitude sat about him, and they said
unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren
without seek for thee.
33 And he answered them, saying, Who is
my mother, or my brethren?
34 And he looked round about on
them which sat about him, and said,Behold my
mother and my brethren!
35 For whosoever shall do
the will of God, the same is my brother, and my
sister, and mother.
