And it happened on a sabbath, as Y'shua was walking through the grain fields, that his disciples were plucking the ears and rubbing them in their hands and eating.

And some of the Pharisees said to them: Why are you doing something that is not lawful to do on the sabbath?

Y'shua answered and said to them: Have you not read what Dawid did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him?

How he entered the house of Elohim and took the bread of the table of Master YHWH, ate, and gave it to those who were with him; which it was not lawful to eat except for the priests only?

And he said to them: The Son of man is master of the sabbath.

And it happened on another sabbath that he entered the synagogue and was teaching. And there was a man there whose right hand was withered.

And the scribes and Pharisees were watching him, whether he would heal on the sabbath, that they might be able to accuse him.

But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man whose hand was withered: Rise, come into the middle of the congregation. And when he came and stood there,

Y'shua said to them: I ask you, What is allowed on the sabbath, to do good or to do evil, to give life to a person or to destroy it?

And he looked at them all, and said to him: Stretch out your hand. And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored like its fellow.

But they were filled with envy, and were talking with one another what they should do to Y'shua.

And in those days Y'shua went out to the mountain to pray, and there he spent the night in prayer to Elohim.

And when day dawned, he called his disciples and chose from them twelve, those whom he named apostles:

Shimon whom he named Keefa, and Andrew his brother, and Ya'akov, and Yochanan, and Philip, and Bar-Tulmay,

and Matthew, and Thomas, and Ya'akov son of Halfai, and Shimon who is called the Zealot,

and Yehuda son of Ya'akov, and Yehuda Skaryota who became the betrayer.

And Y'shua went down with them and stood in the plain; and a great company of his disciples, and a multitude of the people from all Yehuda and from Urishlim and from the seacoast of Tsur and of Tsidon,

who came to hear his word and to be healed of their diseases; and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were healed.

And the whole crowd was seeking to come near to him, for power was going out from him and he was healing them all.

And he lifted his eyes on his disciples and said: Blessed are you poor, for yours is the kingdom of Elohim.

Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.

Blessed are you when people hate you and separate you and revile you and cast out your name as evil for the sake of the Son of man.

Rejoice in that day and leap, for your reward is great in heaven; for so their fathers were doing to the prophets.

But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation.

Woe to you who are full, for you will hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will weep and mourn.

Woe to you when the sons of men speak well of you, for so their fathers used to do to the false prophets.

But to you who hear, I say: Love your enemies, and do what is good to those who hate you;

and bless those who curse you, and pray for those who drag you with violence.

To the one who strikes you on your cheek, offer him the other; and from the one who takes your cloak, do not withhold even your tunic.

To everyone who asks of you, give to him; and from the one who takes what is yours, do not demand it back.

And as you want the sons of men to do to you, so do also you to them.

For if you love those who love you, what is your goodness? For even sinners love those who love them.

And if you do good to those who do good to you, what is your goodness? For even sinners do the same.

And if you lend to one from whom you expect to be repaid, what is your goodness? For even sinners lend to sinners, that they may be repaid the same way.

But love your enemies, and do good to them, and lend, and do not cut off anyone’s hope; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Highest, for he is kind to the evil and to the unthankful.

Be therefore merciful, as also your Father is merciful.

Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Release, and you will be released.

Give, and it will be given to you; in good measure, pressed down and shaken together and running over, they will pour into your lap. For with the measure you measure, it will be measured to you.

And he was saying a parable to them: Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will not both of them fall into a pit?

There is no disciple who is greater than his master; for everyone who is perfected will be like his master.

Why then do you see the straw that is in your brother's eye, but the beam that is in your own eye is not seen by you?

Or how can you say to your brother, My brother, let me take out the straw from your eye, when look, the beam that is in your own eye is not seen by you? Hypocrite! First take the beam out of your eye, and then it will be clear for you to take out the straw from your brother's eye.

There is no good tree that makes bad fruit, nor a bad tree that makes good fruit.

For every tree is known from its fruits. Figs are not gathered from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a bramble.

A good man from the good treasure that is in his heart brings out good things, and a bad man from the bad treasure that is in his heart brings out bad things. For from the abundance of the heart the lips speak.

Why do you call me, my Master, my Master, and you do not do what I say?

Everyone who comes to me and hears my words and does them, I will show you what he is like:

He is like a man who built a house and dug and went deep and laid the foundation on rock. And when a flood came, the flood beat against that house and could not shake it, for its foundation was laid on the rock.

And he who hears and does not do is like a man who built his house on the earth without a foundation; and when the river rushed against it, it fell at once, and the fall of that house was great.
