³⁸ Jesus therefore again groaning in himself, cometh to the sepulchre. Now it was a cave; and a stone was laid over it.

³⁹ Jesus saith: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith to him: Lord, by this time he stinketh, for he is now of four days.

⁴⁰ Jesus saith to her: Did not I say to thee, that if thou believe, thou shalt see the glory of God?

⁴¹ They took therefore the stone away. And Jesus lifting up his eyes said: Father, I give thee thanks that thou hast heard me.

⁴² And I knew that thou hearest me always; but because of the people who stand about have I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.

⁴³ When he had said these things, he cried with a loud voice: Lazarus, come forth.

⁴⁴ And presently he that had been dead came forth, bound feet and hands with winding bands; and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus said to them: Loose him, and let him go.

⁴⁵ Many therefore of the Jews, who were come to Mary and Martha, and had seen the things that Jesus did, believed in him.

⁴⁶ But some of them went to the Pharisees, and told them the things that Jesus had done.

⁴⁷ The chief priests therefore, and the Pharisees, gathered a council, and said: What do we, for this man doth many miracles?

⁴⁸ If we let him alone so, all will believe in him; and the Romans will come, and take away our place and nation.

⁴⁹ But one of them, named Caiphas, being the high priest that year, said to them: You know nothing.

⁵⁰ Neither do you consider that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.

⁵¹ And this he spoke not of himself: but being the high priest of that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation.

⁵² And not only for the nation, but to gather together in one the children of God, that were dispersed.

⁵³ From that day therefore they devised to put him to death.

⁵⁴ Wherefore Jesus walked no more openly among the Jews; but he went into a country near the desert, unto a city that is called Ephrem, and there he abode with his disciples.

⁵⁵ And the pasch of the Jews was at hand; and many from the country went up to Jerusalem, before the pasch to purify themselves.

⁵⁶ They sought therefore for Jesus; and they discoursed one with another, standing in the temple: What think you that he is not come to the festival day? And the chief priests and Pharisees had given a commandment, that if any man knew where he was, he should tell, that they might apprehend him.

¹¹ And it came to pass, as he was going to Jerusalem, he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

¹² And as he entered into a certain town, there met him ten men that were lepers, who stood afar off;

¹³ And lifted up their voice, saying: Jesus, master, have mercy on us.

¹⁴ Whom when he saw, he said: Go, shew yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass, as they went, they were made clean.

¹⁵ And one of them, when he saw that he was made clean, went back, with a loud voice glorifying God.

¹⁶ And he fell on his face before his feet, giving thanks: and this was a Samaritan.

¹⁷ And Jesus answering, said, Were not ten made clean? and where are the nine?

¹⁸ There is no one found to return and give glory to God, but this stranger.

¹⁹ And he said to him: Arise, go thy way; for thy faith hath made thee whole.

²⁰ And being asked by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come? he answered them, and said: The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:

²¹ Neither shall they say: Behold here, or behold there. For lo, the kingdom of God is within you.

²² And he said to his disciples: The days will come, when you shall desire to see one day of the Son of man; and you shall not see it.

²³ And they will say to you: See here, and see there. Go ye not after, nor follow them:

²⁴ For as the lightning that lighteneth from under heaven, shineth unto the parts that are under heaven, so shall the Son of man be in his day.

²⁵ But first he must suffer many things, and be rejected by this generation.

²⁶ And as it came to pass in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

²⁷ They did eat and drink, they married wives, and were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark: and the flood came and destroyed them all.

²⁸ Likewise as it came to pass, in the days of Lot: they did eat and drink, they bought and sold, they planted and built.

²⁹ And in the day that Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

³⁰ Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man shall be revealed.

³¹ In that hour, he that shall be on the housetop, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away: and he that shall be in the field, in like manner, let him not return back.

³² Remember Lot's wife.

³³ Whosoever shall seek to save his life, shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose it, shall preserve it.

³⁴ I say to you: in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

³⁵ Two women shall be grinding together: the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left: two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

³⁶ They answering, say to him: Where, Lord?

³⁷ Who said to them: Wheresoever the body shall be, thither will the eagles also be gathered together.

18 And he spoke also a parable to them, that we ought always to pray, and not to faint,

² Saying: There was a judge in a certain city, who feared not God, nor regarded man.

³ And there was a certain widow in that city, and she came to him, saying: Avenge me of my adversary.

⁴ And he would not for a long time. But afterwards he said within himself: Although I fear not God, nor regard man,

⁵ Yet because this widow is troublesome to me, I will avenge her, lest continually coming she weary me.

⁶ And the Lord said: Hear what the unjust judge saith.

⁷ And will not God revenge his elect who cry to him day and night: and will he have patience in their regard?

⁸ I say to you, that he will quickly revenge them. But yet the Son of man, when he cometh, shall he find, think you, faith on earth?
