1And he rose from thence and went into the coostes of Iurie through the region that is beyonde Iordan. And the people resorted vnto him afresshe: and as he was wont he taught them agayne.
2And the pharises came and axed him a question: whether it were laufull for a man to put awaye his wyfe: to prove him.
3And he answered and sayd vnto the: what dyd Moses byd you do?
4And they sayde: Moses suffred to wryte a testimoniall of devorsement and to put hyr awaye.
5And Iesus answered and sayd vnto the: For the hardnes of youre hertes he wrote this precept vnto you.
6But at the fyrste creacion God made the man and woman.
7And for this thinges sake shall man leve his father and mother and bide by his wyfe
8and they twayne shalbe one flesshe. So then are they now not twayne but one flesshe.
9Therfore what God hath cuppled let not man separat.
10And in the housse his disciples axed him agayne of that matter.
11And he sayde vnto them: Whosoever putteth awaye his wyfe and maryeth another breaketh wedlocke to her warde.
12And yf a woman forsake her husband and be maryed to another she comitteth advoutrie.
13And they brought chyldren to him that he should touche the. And his disciples rebuked thoose that brought the.
14When Iesus sawe that he was displeased and sayd to the: Suffre the chyldre to come vnto me and forbid the not. For of suche is the kyngdome of God.
15Verely I saye vnto you whosoever shall not receave the kyngdome of God as a chylde he shall not entre therin.
16And he toke the vp in his armes and put his hondes vpon them and blessed the.
17And when he was come in to the waye ther came one runninge and kneled to him and axed him: good master what shall I do that I maye enheret eternall lyfe?
18Iesus sayde to him: why callest thou me good? There is no man good but one which is God.
19Thou knowest the commaundementes: breake not matrimony: kyll not: steale not: bere not falce wytnes: defraude no man: honoure thy father and mother.
20He answered and sayde to him: master all these I have observed from my youth.
21Iesus behelde him and had a favour to him and sayde vnto him: one thynge is lackinge vnto the. Goo and sell all that thou hast and geve to the povre and thou shalt have treasure in heven and come and folowe me and take vp thy crosse.
22But he was discuforted with that sayinge and wet awaye morninge for he had greate possessions.
23And Iesus loked rounde aboute and sayde vnto his disciples: what an harde thinge is it for them that have riches to entre into the kyngdome of God.
24And his disciples were astonneyd at his wordes. But Iesus answered agayne and sayde vnto them: chyldre how harde is it for them that trust in riches to entre in to the kyngdome of God.
25It is easyer for a camell to go thorowe the eye of an nedle then for a riche man to entre into the kyngdome of God.
26And they were astonnyed out of measure sayinge betwene them selves: who then can be saved?
27Iesus loked vpon them and sayde: with men it is vnpossible but not with God: for with God all thynges are possible.
28And Peter begane to saye vnto him: Lo we have forsaken all and have folowed the.
29Iesus answered and sayde: Verely I saye vnto you ther is no man that forsaketh housse or brethren or sisters or father or mother or wyfe other chyldren or londes for my sake and the gospelles
30which shall not receave an houndred foolde nowe in this lyfe: houses and brethren and sisters and mothers and chyldren and londes with persecucions: and in the worlde to come eternall lyfe.
31Many that are fyrst shalbe last: and the last fyrst.
32And they were in the waye goinge vp to Ierusalem. And Iesus wet before them: and they were amased and as they folowed were affrayde. And Iesus toke the .xii. agayne and begane to tell the what thinges shuld happen vnto him.
33Beholde we goo vp to Ierusalem and the sonne of man shalbe delyvered vnto the hye preestes and vnto the Scribes: and they shall condempne him to deeth and shall delyvre him to the gentyls:
34and they shall mocke hym and scourge him and spit vpo hym and kyll him. And the thirde daye he shall ryse agayne.
35And then Iames and Iohn the sonnes of zebede came vnto him sayinge: master we wolde that thou shuldest do for vs what soever we desyre.
36He sayde vnto them: what wolde ye I shuld do vnto you?
37They sayd to him: graut vnto vs that we maye sitte one on thy right honde and the other on thy lyfte honde in thy glory.
38But Iesus sayd vnto the: Ye wot not what ye axe. Can ye dryncke of the cup that I shall dryncke of and be baptised in the baptisme that I shalbe baptised in?
39And they sayde vnto him: that we can. Iesus sayde vnto them: ye shall dryncke of the cup that I shall dryncke of and be baptised with the baptyme that I shalbe baptised in:
40but to sit on my right honde and on my lyfte honde ys not myne to geve but to them for whom it is prepared.
41And when the .x. hearde that they began to disdayne at Iames and Iohn.
42But Iesus called the vnto him and sayde to them: ye knowe that they which seme to beare rule amonge the gentyls raygne as lordes over them. And they that be greate amonge them exercyse auctorite over them.
43So shall it not be amonge you but whosoever of you wilbe greate amonge you shalbe youre minister.
44And whosoever wilbe chefe shalbe servaunt vnto all.
45For even the sonne of man came not to be ministred vnto: but to minister and to geve his lyfe for the redempcion of many.
46And they came to Hierico. And as he went oute of Hierico with his disciples and a greate nobre of people: Barthimeus the sonne of Thimeus which was blinde sate by the hye wayes syde begginge.
47And when he hearde that it was Iesus of Nazareth he began to crye and to saye: Iesus the sonne of David have mercy on me.
48And many rebuked him that he shuld holde is peace. But he cryed the moore a greate deale thou sonne of David have mercy on me.
49And Iesus stode still and commaunded hym to be called. And they called the blinde sayinge vnto him: Be of good conforte: ryse he calleth the.
50And he threwe awaye his clooke and roose and came to Iesus.
51And Iesus answered and sayde vnto hym: what wilt thou that I do vnto the? The blynde sayde vnto hym: master that I myght see.
52Iesus sayde vnto him: goo thy waye thy faith hath saved the. And by and by he receaved his sight and folowed Iesus in the waye.
