Matthew 9 (ASV Interlinear Bible)

1And he entered into a boat, and crossed over, and came into his own city.

2And behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy,

Son, be of good cheer; thy sins are forgiven.

3And behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.

4And Jesus

knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

5For which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven; or to say, Arise, and walk?

6But that ye may know that the Son of man hath authority on earth to forgive sins (then saith he to the sick of the palsy), Arise, and take up thy bed, and go unto thy house.

7And he arose, and departed to his house.

8But when the multitudes saw it, they were afraid, and glorified God, who had given such authority unto men.

9And as Jesus passed by from thence, he saw a man, called Matthew, sitting at the place of toll: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.

10And it came to pass, as he

12But when he heard it, he said, They that are

15And Jesus said unto them, Can the

16And no man putteth a piece of undressed cloth upon an old garment; for that which should fill it up taketh from the garment, and a worse rent is made.

18While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came

worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.

19And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.

20And behold, a woman, who had an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the border of his garment:

21for she said within herself, If I do but touch his garment, I shall be

22But Jesus turning and seeing her said, Daughter, be of good cheer; thy faith hath

23And when Jesus came into the ruler’s house, and saw the flute-players, and the crowd making a tumult,

24he said, Give place: for the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.

25But when the crowd was put forth, he entered in, and took her by the hand; and the damsel arose.

27And as Jesus passed by from thence, two blind men followed him, crying out, and saying, Have mercy on us, thou son of David.

28And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.

29Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it done unto you.

30And their eyes were opened. And Jesus

31But they went forth, and spread abroad his fame in all that land.

32And as they went forth, behold, there was brought to him a dumb man possessed with a demon.

33And when the demon was cast out, the dumb man spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.

34But the Pharisees said,

36But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them, because they were distressed and scattered, as sheep not having a shepherd.

37Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest indeed is plenteous, but the laborers are few.

38Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth laborers into his harvest.
