12:1 In
the
meantime,
when
so
many
thousands
of
the
people
had
gathered
together
that
they
were
trampling
one
another,
he
began
to
say
to
his
disciples
first,
"Beware
of
the
leaven
of
the
Pharisees,
which
is
hypocrisy.
12:2 Nothing
is
covered
up
that
will
not
be
revealed,
or
hidden
that
will
not
be
known.
12:3 Therefore
whatever
you
have
said
in
the
dark
shall
be
heard
in
the
light,
and
what
you
have
whispered
in
private
rooms
shall
be
proclaimed
on
the
housetops.
12:4 "I
tell
you,
my
friends,
do
not
fear
those
who
kill
the
body,
and
after
that
have
nothing
more
that
they
can
do.
12:5 But
I
will
warn
you
whom
to
fear:
fear
him
who,
after
he
has
killed,
has
authority
to
cast
into
hell.
Yes,
I
tell
you,
fear
him!
12:6 Are
not
five
sparrows
sold
for
two
pennies
And
not
one
of
them
is
forgotten
before
God.
12:7 Why,
even
the
hairs
of
your
head
are
all
numbered.
Fear
not;
you
are
of
more
value
than
many
sparrows.
12:8 "And
I
tell
you,
everyone
who
acknowledges
me
before
men,
the
Son
of
Man
also
will
acknowledge
before
the
angels
of
God,
12:9 but
the
one
who
denies
me
before
men
will
be
denied
before
the
angels
of
God.
12:10 And
everyone
who
speaks
a
word
against
the
Son
of
Man
will
be
forgiven,
but
the
one
who
blasphemes
against
the
Holy
Spirit
will
not
be
forgiven.
12:11 And
when
they
bring
you
before
the
synagogues
and
the
rulers
and
the
authorities,
do
not
be
anxious
about
how
you
should
defend
yourself
or
what
you
should
say,
12:12 for
the
Holy
Spirit
will
teach
you
in
that
very
hour
what
you
ought
to
say."
12:13 Someone
in
the
crowd
said
to
him,
"Teacher,
tell
my
brother
to
divide
the
inheritance
with
me."
12:14 But
he
said
to
him,
"Man,
who
made
me
a
judge
or
arbitrator
over
you"
12:15 And
he
said
to
them,
"Take
care,
and
be
on
your
guard
against
all
covetousness,
for
one's
life
does
not
consist
in
the
abundance
of
his
possessions."
12:16 And
he
told
them
a
parable,
saying,
"The
land
of
a
rich
man
produced
plentifully,
12:17 and
he
thought
to
himself,
'What
shall
I
do,
for
I
have
nowhere
to
store
my
crops'
12:18 And
he
said,
'I
will
do
this:
I
will
tear
down
my
barns
and
build
larger
ones,
and
there
I
will
store
all
my
grain
and
my
goods.
12:19 And
I
will
say
to
my
soul,
Soul,
you
have
ample
goods
laid
up
for
many
years;
relax,
eat,
drink,
be
merry.'
12:20 But
God
said
to
him,
'Fool!
This
night
your
soul
is
required
of
you,
and
the
things
you
have
prepared,
whose
will
they
be'
12:21 So
is
the
one
who
lays
up
treasure
for
himself
and
is
not
rich
toward
God."
12:22 And
he
said
to
his
disciples,
"Therefore
I
tell
you,
do
not
be
anxious
about
your
life,
what
you
will
eat,
nor
about
your
body,
what
you
will
put
on.
12:23 For
life
is
more
than
food,
and
the
body
more
than
clothing.
12:24 Consider
the
ravens:
they
neither
sow
nor
reap,
they
have
neither
storehouse
nor
barn,
and
yet
God
feeds
them.
Of
how
much
more
value
are
you
than
the
birds!
12:25 And
which
of
you
by
being
anxious
can
add
a
single
hour
to
his
span
of
life
12:26 If
then
you
are
not
able
to
do
as
small
a
thing
as
that,
why
are
you
anxious
about
the
rest
12:27 Consider
the
lilies,
how
they
grow:
they
neither
toil
nor
spin,
yet
I
tell
you,
even
Solomon
in
all
his
glory
was
not
arrayed
like
one
of
these.
12:28 But
if
God
so
clothes
the
grass,
which
is
alive
in
the
field
today,
and
tomorrow
is
thrown
into
the
oven,
how
much
more
will
he
clothe
you,
O
you
of
little
faith!
12:29 And
do
not
seek
what
you
are
to
eat
and
what
you
are
to
drink,
nor
be
worried.
12:30 For
all
the
nations
of
the
world
seek
after
these
things,
and
your
Father
knows
that
you
need
them.
12:31 Instead,
seek
his
kingdom,
and
these
things
will
be
added
to
you.
12:32 "Fear
not,
little
flock,
for
it
is
your
Father's
good
pleasure
to
give
you
the
kingdom.
12:33 Sell
your
possessions,
and
give
to
the
needy.
Provide
yourselves
with
moneybags
that
do
not
grow
old,
with
a
treasure
in
the
heavens
that
does
not
fail,
where
no
thief
approaches
and
no
moth
destroys.
12:34 For
where
your
treasure
is,
there
will
your
heart
be
also.
12:35 "Stay
dressed
for
action
and
keep
your
lamps
burning,
12:36 and
be
like
men
who
are
waiting
for
their
master
to
come
home
from
the
wedding
feast,
so
that
they
may
open
the
door
to
him
at
once
when
he
comes
and
knocks.
12:37 Blessed
are
those
servants
whom
the
master
finds
awake
when
he
comes.
Truly,
I
say
to
you,
he
will
dress
himself
for
service
and
have
them
recline
at
table,
and
he
will
come
and
serve
them.
12:38 If
he
comes
in
the
second
watch,
or
in
the
third,
and
finds
them
awake,
blessed
are
those
servants!
12:39 But
know
this,
that
if
the
master
of
the
house
had
known
at
what
hour
the
thief
was
coming,
he
would
not
have
left
his
house
to
be
broken
into.
12:40 You
also
must
be
ready,
for
the
Son
of
Man
is
coming
at
an
hour
you
do
not
expect."
12:41 Peter
said,
"Lord,
are
you
telling
this
parable
for
us
or
for
all"
12:42 And
the
Lord
said,
"Who
then
is
the
faithful
and
wise
manager,
whom
his
master
will
set
over
his
household,
to
give
them
their
portion
of
food
at
the
proper
time
12:43 Blessed
is
that
servant
whom
his
master
will
find
so
doing
when
he
comes.
12:44 Truly,
I
say
to
you,
he
will
set
him
over
all
his
possessions.
12:45 But
if
that
servant
says
to
himself,
'My
master
is
delayed
in
coming,'
and
begins
to
beat
the
male
and
female
servants,
and
to
eat
and
drink
and
get
drunk,
12:46 the
master
of
that
servant
will
come
on
a
day
when
he
does
not
expect
him
and
at
an
hour
he
does
not
know,
and
will
cut
him
in
pieces
and
put
him
with
the
unfaithful.
12:47 And
that
servant
who
knew
his
master's
will
but
did
not
get
ready
or
act
according
to
his
will,
will
receive
a
severe
beating.
12:48 But
the
one
who
did
not
know,
and
did
what
deserved
a
beating,
will
receive
a
light
beating.
Everyone
to
whom
much
was
given,
of
him
much
will
be
required,
and
from
him
to
whom
they
entrusted
much,
they
will
demand
the
more.
12:49 "I
came
to
cast
fire
on
the
earth,
and
would
that
it
were
already
kindled!
12:50 I
have
a
baptism
to
be
baptized
with,
and
how
great
is
my
distress
until
it
is
accomplished!
12:51 Do
you
think
that
I
have
come
to
give
peace
on
earth
No,
I
tell
you,
but
rather
division.
12:52 For
from
now
on
in
one
house
there
will
be
five
divided,
three
against
two
and
two
against
three.
12:53 They
will
be
divided,
father
against
son
and
son
against
father,
mother
against
daughter
and
daughter
against
mother,
mother-in-law
against
her
daughter-in-law
and
daughter-in-law
against
mother-in-law."
12:54 He
also
said
to
the
crowds,
"When
you
see
a
cloud
rising
in
the
west,
you
say
at
once,
'A
shower
is
coming.'
And
so
it
happens.
12:55 And
when
you
see
the
south
wind
blowing,
you
say,
'There
will
be
scorching
heat,'
and
it
happens.
12:56 You
hypocrites!
You
know
how
to
interpret
the
appearance
of
earth
and
sky,
but
why
do
you
not
know
how
to
interpret
the
present
time
12:57 "And
why
do
you
not
judge
for
yourselves
what
is
right
12:58 As
you
go
with
your
accuser
before
the
magistrate,
make
an
effort
to
settle
with
him
on
the
way,
lest
he
drag
you
to
the
judge,
and
the
judge
hand
you
over
to
the
officer,
and
the
officer
put
you
in
prison.
12:59 I
tell
you,
you
will
never
get
out
until
you
have
paid
the
very
last
penny."
