NDa it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret. 2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets. 3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people I out of the ship. 4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch b out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught. 5 And Simon, answering, said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: c nevertheless, at thy word I will let down the net. 6 And d when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake. 7 And they beckoned unto ther partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help e them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink. 8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down ƒ at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man. O Lord. 9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the dranght of the fishes g which they had ta ken: 10 And so was also James and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch Christ cleanseth a leper. their ships to land, they forsook h all, and followed him. LUKE, VI. h Mat.4.20. 12 And i it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold, a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus, fell on his face, and be sought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. 13 And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; bekk 2Ki.5.10, 14. thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him. 14 And he charged him to tell no man: but go and show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them. 15 But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him and m great multitudes came together, to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities. i Mat.8.2.&c. 1 Le. 14.4,&c. m Mat.4.25. n Mat.14.23. o Jno.3.21. 16 And he withdrew himself P Mat.9.2,&c. into the wilderness and prayed.

Who can forgive q sins, but God alone? 22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he, answering, said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts? 23 Whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk? 24 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power upon earth to forgive sins, (he said unto the ch. 15.7,10. y ch.7.34,35. b Le.19.19. c Je.6.16. 34 And he said unto them, Can ye make the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? 35 But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast z in those days. 36 T And a 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 b with the old. 37 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish. 38 But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved. 39 No man also having drunk old wine straightway desireth new: for he saith, The old c is better.
