eth with publicans and sin-[ 17 ners? When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them; They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.

Then came to him the disciples of John, saying; 18 Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disci15 ples fast not? And Jesus said unto them; Can the children of the bride-chamber mourn, as long as the 19 bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then 16 shall they fast. No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment; for 20 that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse. 17 Neither do men put new 21 wine into old bottles; else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish; but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.

And the disciples of John and the Pharisees used to fast; and they come and say unto him; Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not? And Jesus said unto them; Can the children of the bride-chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in that day. No man seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment; else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the 22 rent is made worse. And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred; but new wine must be put into new bottles.

And they said unto him; Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink? 34 And he said unto them; Can ye make the children of the bride-chamber fast while the bridegroom is with 35 them? But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they 36 fast in those days. And he spake also a parable unto them; No man putteth a piece of a new garment upon an old; if otherwise, then both the new maketh a rent, and the piece that was taken out of the new agreeth not 37 with the old. And no man put

teth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall 38 perish; but new wine must be put into new bottles; and 39 both are preserved. No man also having drunk old wine, straightway desireth new; for he saith; The old is better.

MATTHEW IX.

there came a certain ruler and worshipped him, saying ; My daughter is even now dead; but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she 19 shall live. And Jesus arose

and followed him, and so did 20 his disciples. And, be

hold, a woman, which was 24 diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the 25 21 hem of his garment. For she said within herself; If 1 may but touch his garment, 22 I shall be whole. But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said; Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from 28 23 that hour. And when

Jesus came into the ruler's

house, and saw the minstrels, and the people making a 24 noise, he said unto them; Give place; for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to 25 scorn. But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand; and the maid arose. 26 And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.

agogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet, and besought him greatly, saying; My little daughter lieth at the point of death; I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she shall live. And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him. And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years, and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, when she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. (For she said; If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.) And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. And Jesus immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said; Who touched my clothes? And his disciples said unto him; Thou seest the multitude thronging thee; and sayest thou; Who touched me? 32 And he looked round about to see her that had done 33 this thing. But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her,

was a ruler of the synagogue; and he fell down at Jesus' feet, and besought him that he would come into his 42 house; for he had one only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay a dying. But as he went, the 43 people thronged him. And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be 44 healed of any, came behind him and touched the border of his garment; and immediately her issue of blood 45 stanched. And Jesus said; Who touched me? When all denied, Peter, and they that were with him, said; Master, the multitude throng thee, and press thee; and sayest thou ; Who touched me? 46 And Jesus said; Somebody hath touched me; for I perceive that virtue is gone out 47 of me. And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and, falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed im48 mediately. And he said unto her; Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole; go in 49 peace. While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's

came and fell down before him, and told him all the 34 truth. And he said unto her; Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of 35. thy plague. While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's house certain which said; Thy daughter is dead; why troublest thou the Master 36 any further? As soon as Je

sus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue; Be not afraid, only believe. 37 And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother 38 of James. And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept 39 and wailed greatly. And when he was come in, he saith unto them; Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. 40 And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in 41 where the damsel was. And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her; Talitha, cumi; which is, being interpreted; Damsel, 42 I say unto thee, arise. And straightway the damsel arose and walked; for she was of
