Jesus went thence, and departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon.
[22] And, behold, a woman of Canaan
came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou Son of David; my
daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
[23] But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came
and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
[24] But he answered and said, I am
not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
[25] Then came she and worshipped him, saying,
Lord, help me.
[26] But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to
dogs.
[27] And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.
[28]
Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt.
And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.
[29] And Jesus departed from thence, and came
nigh unto the sea of Galilee; and went up into a mountain, and sat down there.
[30] And great multitudes
came unto him, having with them those that were lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and
cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:
[31] Insomuch that the multitude wondered, when
they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they
glorified the God of Israel.
[32] Then Jesus called his disciples unto him, and said, I have compassion
on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not
send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.
[33] And his disciples say unto him, Whence should
we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to fill so great a multitude?
[34] And Jesus saith unto them,
How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.
[35] And he commanded the
multitude to sit down on the ground.
[36] And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks,
and brake them, and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
[37] And they did all eat,
and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full.
[38] And they that
did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children.
[39] And he sent away the multitude, and
took ship, and came into the coasts of Magdala,
Matt.16
[1] The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a
sign from heaven.
[2] He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for
the sky is red.
[3] And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O
ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
[4] A
wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the
sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.
[5] And when his disciples were come to the
other side, they had forgotten to take bread.
[6] Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of
the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
[7] And they reasoned among themselves, saying,
It is because we have taken no bread.
[8] Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little
faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?
[9] Do ye not yet understand,
neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
[10] Neither
the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
[11] How is it that ye do not
understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees
and of the Sadducees?
[12] Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of
bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
[13] When Jesus came into the coasts
of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
[14]
And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the
prophets.
[15] He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
[16] And Simon Peter answered and said,
Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
[17] And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed
art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in
heaven.
[18] And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and
the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
[19] And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and
whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth
shall be loosed in heaven.
[20] Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was
Jesus the Christ.
[21] From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must
go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed,
and be raised again the third day.
[22] Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far
from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
[23] But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me,
