Mukama wa Ssabbiiti
12 (A)Awo mu kiseera ekyo Yesu n’ayita mu nnimiro y’emmere ey’empeke ku lunaku lwa Ssabbiiti. Abayigirizwa be ne balumwa enjala ne batandika okunoga ebirimba by’eŋŋaano ne babirya. 2 (B)Naye Abafalisaayo bwe baalaba kino ne bagamba Yesu nti, “Laba abayigirizwa bo bakola ekitakkirizibwa kukolebwa ku Ssabbiiti.”
3 (C)Naye Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Temusomanga ku Dawudi kye yakola bwe yalumwa enjala ne be yali nabo? 4 (D)Yayingira mu nnyumba ya Katonda n’alya emigaati egy’okulaga, egikkirizibwa bakabona bokka okulya. 5 (E)Oba temusomanga mu mateeka nti bakabona ababeera mu luwalo lw’okuweereza mu Yeekaalu ne basobya ku Ssabbiiti tebaliiko musango? 6 (F)Naye mbagamba nti ekisinga Yeekaalu kiri wano. 7 (G)Naye singa mumanyi amakulu ga kino nti, ‘Njagala mubeerenga ba kisa okusinga okuwangayo ssaddaaka,’ temwandinenyezza bataliiko musango. 8 (H)Kubanga Omwana w’Omuntu ye Mukama wa Ssabbiiti.”
9 N’avaayo n’ajja mu kuŋŋaaniro lyabwe. 10 (I)Laba mwalimu omusajja eyalina omukono ogwakala. Ne babuuza Yesu obanga kikkirizibwa okuwonya ku Ssabbiiti.[a] Baali basuubira nti anaddamu nti kituufu, balyoke bamuwawaabire.
11 (J)Naye n’abaddamu nti, “Singa wabaddewo omuntu mu mmwe ng’alina endiga emu, n’egwa mu bunnya ku lunaku lwa Ssabbiiti, tagiggyamu? 12 (K)Kale, omuntu tasinga nnyo endiga omuwendo? Noolwekyo kikkirizibwa okukola ekirungi ku Ssabbiiti.”
13 Bw’atyo n’agamba omusajja nti, “Golola omukono gwo.” N’agugolola ne guwona, ne guba mulamu nga gunnaagwo! 14 (L)Awo Abafalisaayo ne bafuluma ne bateesa nga bwe banaazikiriza Yesu.
Omuweereza wa Katonda
15 (M)Naye Yesu bwe yakimanya n’afuluma mu kuŋŋaaniro, abantu bangi nnyo ne bamugoberera, n’awonya abaali abalwadde bonna, 16 (N)kyokka n’abakomako baleme okumwatuukiriza. 17 Ebyayogerwa Nnabbi Isaaya biryoke bituukirire nti:
18 (O)“Laba Omuweereza wange, ggwe neerondera,
gwe njagala ennyo asanyusa emmeeme yange.
Ndimuteekako Omwoyo wange
era Alisalira amawanga gonna emisango.
19 Taliyomba so talireekaana,
era tewaliba n’omu aliwulira eddoboozi lye mu nguudo.
20 Talimenya lumuli lunafu,
wadde okuzikiriza
olutambi lw’ettaala olunyooka.
21 (P)Era abamawanga baliba n’essuubi mu linnya lye.”
Yesu ne Beeruzebuli
22 (Q)Awo Yesu ne bamuleetera omusajja eyaliko dayimooni, nga muzibe w’amaaso era nga tayogera. N’amuwonya, omusajja eyali tasobola kwogera n’asobola okwogera n’okulaba. 23 (R)Abantu bonna ne beewuunya ne boogera nti, “Ddala ddala ono si mwana wa Dawudi?”
24 (S)Naye Abafalisaayo bwe baakiwulira ne boogera nti, “Ono agoba baddayimooni ku bwa Beeruzebuli omukulu wa baddayimooni.”
25 (T)Yesu bwe yategeera ebirowoozo byabwe n’abagamba nti, “Obwakabaka bwe bwawukanamu, oba ekibuga wadde amaka, tebiyinza kuyimirira. 26 (U)Ne Setaani bw’agoba Setaani munne ku muntu aba yeyawuddemu. Obwakabaka bwe bunaayimirira butya? 27 (V)Obanga Nze ngoba baddayimooni ku bwa Beeruzebuli omukulu wa baddayimooni, kale batabani bammwe babagoba ku bw’ani? Noolwekyo be bali basalira omusango. 28 Naye bwe mba ngoba baddayimooni n’amaanyi g’Omwoyo wa Katonda, kale Obwakabaka bwa Katonda buzze gye muli.
29 “Oba omuntu ayinza atya okuyingira mu nnyumba y’omuntu ow’amaanyi, n’amunyagako ebintu bye okuggyako ng’asooka okusiba ow’amaanyi oyo? Olwo n’alyoka anyaga ebintu bye.
30 (W)“Oyo atali nange, mulabe wange. N’oyo atakuŋŋaanyiza wamu nange asaasaanya. 31 (X)Noolwekyo mbategeereza ddala nti omuntu alisonyiyibwa buli kibi kyonna, na buli kuvvoola. Naye alivvoola Mwoyo Mutukuvu talisonyiyibwa. 32 (Y)Na buli muntu ayogera ekigambo ekibi ku Mwana w’Omuntu alisonyiyibwa, naye ayogera ekibi ku Mwoyo Omutukuvu talisonyiyibwa mu mulembe guno wadde ogugenda okujja.
33 (Z)“Buli muti gutegeererwa ku bibala byagwo. Omuti bw’ogulabirira gubala ebibala ebirungi, naye bw’ogulagajjalira tegubala bibala. 34 (AA)Mmwe abaana b’embalasaasa, mmwe abalina ebibi muyinza mutya okwogera ebirungi? Akamwa koogera ku biba bijjudde mu mutima. 35 Omuntu omulungi afulumya ebirungi okuva mu tterekero lye eddungi, era n’omuntu omubi afulumya ebibi okuva mu tterekero lye ebbi. 36 Era mbategeeza nti buli kigambo kyonna ekitasaana abantu kye boogera, kiribabuuzibwa ku lunaku olw’okusalirako emisango. 37 Bwe bityo ebigambo byo bye birikuweesa obutuukirivu era ebigambo byo bye birikusalizisa omusango.”
Akabonero ka Nnabbi Yona
38 (AB)Awo abamu ku bannyonnyozi b’amateeka n’Abafalisaayo ne bagamba Yesu nti, “Omuyigiriza twagala otulage akabonero.”
39 (AC)Naye n’abaddamu nti, “Omulembe omwonoonefu era omwenzi ogunoonya akabonero; temugenda kuweebwa kabonero okuggyako aka nnabbi Yona. 40 (AD)Kubanga Yona nga bwe yamala mu lubuto lw’ekyennyanja ekinene ennaku ssatu emisana n’ekiro, n’Omwana w’Omuntu bw’atyo bw’alimala mu ttaka ennaku ssatu emisana n’ekiro. 41 (AE)Abantu b’e Nineeve baliyimirira ne basaliza abantu b’omulembe guno omusango okubasinga, kubanga beenenya bwe baawulira okubuulira kwa Yona. Naye laba asinga Yona ali wano. 42 (AF)Era ku lunaku olw’okusalirako omusango, kabaka omukazi ow’omu bukiikaddyo alisaliza abantu ab’omulembe guno omusango okubasinga, kubanga yava ku nkomerero y’ensi okujja okuwuliriza amagezi ga Sulemaani. Naye laba asinga Sulemaani ali wano.
43 “Omwoyo ogutali mulongoofu bwe guva mu muntu guyita mu malungu nga gunoonya aw’okuwumulirako, ne gutafuna wa kuwummulira. 44 Kyeguva gugamba nti, ‘Leka nzireyo mu nnyumba mwe nava.’ Bwe guddayo gusanga nkalu, nga eyereddwa era nga ntegeke. 45 (AG)Kyeguva gugenda ne guleeta emyoyo emirala musanvu egigusingako obwonoonefu, ne giyingira mu nnyumba omwo ne gibeera omwo. Olwo omuntu oyo n’abeera bubi nnyo okusinga bwe yali okusooka. Bwe kityo bwe kiriba n’omulembe guno omwonoonefu.”
Yesu ne Baganda be ne Nnyina
46 (AH)Yesu bwe yali akyayogera n’ekibiina, nnyina ne baganda be ne batuuka ne bayimirira ebweru nga baagala okwogera naye. 47 Omuntu omu n’amutegeeza nti, “Nnyoko ne baganda bo, bali wabweru baagala kwogera nawe.”
48 Yesu n’amuddamu nti, “Mmange ye ani era ne baganda bange be baani?” 49 N’agolola omukono gwe eri abayigirizwa be n’agamba nti, “Mulabe mmange ne baganda bange! 50 (AI)Kubanga buli akola ebyo Kitange ali mu ggulu by’ayagala oyo ye muganda wange, ye mwannyinaze era ye mmange.”

King James Version
Matthew 12
King James Version
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.
22 Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.
23 And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?
24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.
25 And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:
26 And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?
27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.
28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.
29 Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.
30 He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.
31 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.
32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.
33 Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.
34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
38 Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee.
39 But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:
40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
41 The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.
42 The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.
44 Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.
45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.
46 While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him.
47 Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee.
48 But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
49 And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!
50 For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

Jésus et le sabbat
12 A cette époque-là, Jésus traversa des champs de blé un jour de sabbat. Ses disciples, qui avaient faim, se mirent à arracher des épis et à manger. 2 A cette vue, les pharisiens lui dirent: «Regarde, tes disciples font ce qu'il n'est pas permis de faire pendant le sabbat[a].» 3 Mais Jésus leur répondit: «N'avez-vous pas lu ce qu’a fait David lorsqu'il a eu faim, lui et ses compagnons? 4 Il est entré dans la maison de Dieu et a mangé les pains consacrés que ni lui ni ses compagnons n'avaient le droit de manger et qui étaient réservés aux prêtres seuls! 5 Ou n'avez-vous pas lu dans la loi que, les jours de sabbat, les prêtres violent le sabbat dans le temple sans se rendre coupables? 6 Or, je vous le dis, il y a ici plus grand que le temple. 7 Si vous saviez ce que signifie: Je désire la bonté, et non les sacrifices[b], vous n'auriez pas condamné des innocents. 8 En effet, le Fils de l'homme est le Seigneur du sabbat.»
9 Jésus partit de là et entra dans la synagogue. 10 Il s'y trouvait un homme qui avait la main paralysée. Ils demandèrent à Jésus: «Est-il permis de faire une guérison le jour du sabbat?» C'était afin de pouvoir l'accuser. 11 Il leur répondit: «Lequel de vous, s'il n'a qu'une brebis et qu'elle tombe dans un trou le jour du sabbat, n'ira pas la retirer de là? 12 Or, un homme vaut beaucoup plus qu'une brebis! Il est donc permis de faire du bien les jours de sabbat.» 13 Alors il dit à l'homme: «Tends la main.» Il la tendit, et elle devint saine [comme l'autre].
Jésus, le serviteur de l’Eternel contesté
14 Les pharisiens sortirent et tinrent conseil sur les moyens de le faire mourir. 15 Jésus le sut et s'éloigna de là. Une grande foule le suivit. Il guérit tous les malades 16 et leur recommanda sévèrement de ne pas le faire connaître, 17 afin que s'accomplisse ce que le prophète Esaïe avait annoncé: 18 Voici mon serviteur que j'ai choisi, mon bien-aimé qui a toute mon approbation. Je mettrai mon Esprit sur lui, et il annoncera la justice aux nations. 19 Il ne contestera pas, il ne criera pas, et personne n'entendra sa voix dans les rues. 20 Il ne cassera pas le roseau abîmé et n'éteindra pas la mèche qui fume encore, jusqu'à ce qu'il ait fait triompher la justice. 21 Les nations espéreront en son nom.[c]
22 Alors on lui amena un démoniaque aveugle et muet, et il le guérit, de sorte que le muet parlait et voyait. 23 Toute la foule disait, étonnée: «N'est-ce pas là le Fils de David[d]?»
24 Lorsque les pharisiens entendirent cela, ils dirent: «Cet homme ne chasse les démons que par Béelzébul[e], le prince des démons.» 25 Comme Jésus connaissait leurs pensées, il leur dit: «Tout royaume confronté à des luttes internes est dévasté, et aucune ville ou famille confrontée à des luttes internes ne peut subsister. 26 Si Satan chasse Satan, il lutte contre lui-même. Comment donc son royaume subsistera-t-il? 27 Et si moi, je chasse les démons par Béelzébul, vos disciples, par qui les chassent-ils? C'est pourquoi ils seront eux-mêmes vos juges. 28 Mais si c'est par l'Esprit de Dieu que je chasse les démons, alors le royaume de Dieu est venu jusqu'à vous. 29 Ou encore, comment quelqu'un peut-il entrer dans la maison d'un homme fort et piller ses biens, s'il n'a pas d'abord attaché cet homme fort? Alors seulement il pillera sa maison. 30 Celui qui n'est pas avec moi est contre moi, et celui qui ne rassemble pas avec moi disperse.
31 »C'est pourquoi je vous dis: Tout péché, tout blasphème sera pardonné aux hommes, mais le blasphème contre l'Esprit ne leur sera pas pardonné. 32 Celui qui parlera contre le Fils de l'homme, cela lui sera pardonné; mais celui qui parlera contre le Saint-Esprit, le pardon ne lui sera accordé ni dans le monde présent ni dans le monde à venir. 33 Dites que l'arbre est bon et que son fruit est bon, ou bien dites que l'arbre est mauvais et que son fruit est mauvais, car on reconnaît l'arbre à son fruit. 34 Races de vipères, comment pourriez-vous dire de bonnes choses, mauvais comme vous l'êtes? En effet, la bouche exprime ce dont le cœur est plein. 35 L'homme bon tire de bonnes choses de son bon trésor et l'homme mauvais tire de mauvaises choses de son mauvais trésor. 36 Je vous le dis: le jour du jugement, les hommes rendront compte de toute parole inutile qu'ils auront prononcée. 37 En effet, d'après tes paroles tu seras déclaré juste et d'après tes paroles tu seras condamné.»
38 Alors quelques-uns des spécialistes de la loi et des pharisiens prirent la parole et dirent: «Maître, nous voudrions voir un signe miraculeux de ta part.» 39 Il leur répondit: «Une génération mauvaise et adultère réclame un signe miraculeux, il ne lui sera pas donné d'autre signe que celui du prophète Jonas. 40 En effet, de même que Jonas fut trois jours et trois nuits dans le ventre d'un grand poisson[f], de même le Fils de l'homme sera trois jours et trois nuits dans la terre. 41 Lors du jugement, les habitants de Ninive se lèveront avec cette génération et la condamneront, parce qu'ils ont changé d’attitude à la prédication de Jonas. Or, il y a ici plus que Jonas. 42 Lors du jugement, la reine du Midi[g] se lèvera avec cette génération et la condamnera, parce qu'elle est venue des extrémités de la terre pour entendre la sagesse de Salomon. Or, il y a ici plus que Salomon.
43 »Lorsqu'un esprit impur est sorti d'un homme, il va dans des endroits arides pour chercher du repos, et il n'en trouve pas. 44 Alors il dit: ‘Je retournerai dans ma maison, d'où je suis sorti.’ A son arrivée, il la trouve vide, balayée et bien rangée. 45 Alors il s'en va prendre avec lui sept autres esprits plus mauvais que lui; ils entrent dans la maison, s'y installent, et la dernière condition de cet homme est pire que la première. Il en ira de même pour cette génération mauvaise.»
46 Comme Jésus parlait encore à la foule, sa mère et ses frères, qui étaient dehors, cherchaient à lui parler. 47 [Quelqu'un lui dit: «Ta mère et tes frères sont dehors et cherchent à te parler.»] 48 Mais Jésus répondit à celui qui lui parlait: «Qui est ma mère et qui sont mes frères?» 49 Puis il tendit la main vers ses disciples et dit: «Voici ma mère et mes frères. 50 En effet, celui qui fait la volonté de mon Père céleste, celui-là est mon frère, ma sœur, ma mère.»

Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath(A)(B)
12 At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry and began to pick some heads of grain(C) and eat them. 2 When the Pharisees saw this, they said to him, “Look! Your disciples are doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath.”(D)
3 He answered, “Haven’t you read what David did when he and his companions were hungry?(E) 4 He entered the house of God, and he and his companions ate the consecrated bread—which was not lawful for them to do, but only for the priests.(F) 5 Or haven’t you read in the Law that the priests on Sabbath duty in the temple desecrate the Sabbath(G) and yet are innocent? 6 I tell you that something greater than the temple is here.(H) 7 If you had known what these words mean, ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice,’[a](I) you would not have condemned the innocent. 8 For the Son of Man(J) is Lord of the Sabbath.”
9 Going on from that place, he went into their synagogue, 10 and a man with a shriveled hand was there. Looking for a reason to bring charges against Jesus,(K) they asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”(L)
11 He said to them, “If any of you has a sheep and it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will you not take hold of it and lift it out?(M) 12 How much more valuable is a person than a sheep!(N) Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
13 Then he said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” So he stretched it out and it was completely restored, just as sound as the other. 14 But the Pharisees went out and plotted how they might kill Jesus.(O)
God’s Chosen Servant
15 Aware of this, Jesus withdrew from that place. A large crowd followed him, and he healed all who were ill.(P) 16 He warned them not to tell others about him.(Q) 17 This was to fulfill(R) what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:
18 “Here is my servant whom I have chosen,
the one I love, in whom I delight;(S)
I will put my Spirit on him,(T)
and he will proclaim justice to the nations.
19 He will not quarrel or cry out;
no one will hear his voice in the streets.
20 A bruised reed he will not break,
and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out,
till he has brought justice through to victory.
21 In his name the nations will put their hope.”[b](U)
Jesus and Beelzebul(V)
22 Then they brought him a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute, and Jesus healed him, so that he could both talk and see.(W) 23 All the people were astonished and said, “Could this be the Son of David?”(X)
24 But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, “It is only by Beelzebul,(Y) the prince of demons, that this fellow drives out demons.”(Z)
25 Jesus knew their thoughts(AA) and said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand. 26 If Satan(AB) drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then can his kingdom stand? 27 And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul,(AC) by whom do your people(AD) drive them out? So then, they will be your judges. 28 But if it is by the Spirit of God that I drive out demons, then the kingdom of God(AE) has come upon you.
29 “Or again, how can anyone enter a strong man’s house and carry off his possessions unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can plunder his house.
30 “Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.(AF) 31 And so I tell you, every kind of sin and slander can be forgiven, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.(AG) 32 Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age(AH) or in the age to come.(AI)
33 “Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit.(AJ) 34 You brood of vipers,(AK) how can you who are evil say anything good? For the mouth speaks(AL) what the heart is full of. 35 A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. 36 But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken. 37 For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.”(AM)
The Sign of Jonah(AN)(AO)
38 Then some of the Pharisees and teachers of the law said to him, “Teacher, we want to see a sign(AP) from you.”(AQ)
39 He answered, “A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a sign! But none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.(AR) 40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish,(AS) so the Son of Man(AT) will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.(AU) 41 The men of Nineveh(AV) will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah,(AW) and now something greater than Jonah is here. 42 The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for she came(AX) from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, and now something greater than Solomon is here.
43 “When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. 44 Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ When it arrives, it finds the house unoccupied, swept clean and put in order. 45 Then it goes and takes with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that person is worse than the first.(AY) That is how it will be with this wicked generation.”
Jesus’ Mother and Brothers(AZ)
46 While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother(BA) and brothers(BB) stood outside, wanting to speak to him. 47 Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you.”
48 He replied to him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” 49 Pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. 50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven(BC) is my brother and sister and mother.”
