25
At that time Jesus answered and said,
I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because
thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.
26
Even
so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.
27
All things are delivered unto me of my Father:
and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son,
and
he
to whomsoever the Son will reveal
him.
28
Come unto me, all
ye
that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29
Take my
yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your
souls.
30
For my yoke
is
easy, and my burden is light.
CHAPTER 12
At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred,
and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.
2
But when the Pharisees saw
it,
they said unto him,
Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.
3
But he said unto
them,
Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him;
4
How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him
to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?
5
Or have ye not read in the
law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
6
But I say unto you, That in this place is
one
greater than the temple.
7
But if ye had known what
this
meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
8
For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.
9
And when he was departed thence, he went
into their synagogue:
10
And, behold, there was a man which had
his
hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is
it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might accuse him.
11
And he said unto them,
What
man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day,
will he not lay hold on it, and lift
it
out?
12
How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore
it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.
13
Then saith he to the man,
Stretch forth thine hand.
And he stretched
it
forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.
14
Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.
15
But when Jesus knew
it,
he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him,
and he healed them all;
16
And charged them that they should not make him known:
17
That it might
be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,
18
Behold my servant, whom I have
chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall
shew judgment to the Gentiles.
19
He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice
in the streets.
20
A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he
send forth judgment unto victory.
21
And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
