Mt Chapter 12 Verses 1-50

12:1
At
that
time
Jesus
went through
the
fields
on
the
Sabbath
day;
and
his
disciples,
being
in need of
food,
were
taking
the
heads
of
grain.
12:2
But
the
Pharisees,
when
they
saw
it,
said
to
him,
See,
your
disciples
do
that
which
it
is
not
right
to
do
on
the
Sabbath.
12:3
But
he
said
to
them,
Have
you
no
knowledge
of
what
David
did
when
he
had
need
of
food,
and
those
who
were
with
him?
12:4
How
he
went into
the
house
of
God
and
took
for
food
the
holy
bread
which
it
was
not
right
for
him
or
for
those
who
were
with
him
to
take,
but
only
for
the
priests?
12:5
Or
is
it
not
said
in
the
law,
how
the
Sabbath
is
broken
by
the
priests
in
the
Temple
and
they
do
no
wrong?
12:6
But
I
say
to
you
that
a
greater
thing
than
the
Temple
is
here.
12:7
But
if
these
words
had been
in
your
minds,
My
desire
is
for
mercy
and
not
for
offerings,
you
would not
have been
judging
those
who
have
done
no
wrong.
12:8
For
the
Son
of
man
is
lord
of
the
Sabbath.
12:9
And
he
went
from
there
into
their
Synagogue:
12:10
And
there
was
a
man
with
a
dead
hand.
And
they
put
a
question
to
him,
saying,
Is
it
right
to
make
a
man
well
on
the
Sabbath
day?
so
that
they
might
have
something
against
him.
12:11
And
he
said
to
them,
Which
of
you,
having
a
sheep,
if
it
gets
into
a
hole
on
the
Sabbath
day,
will not
put
out
a
helping hand
and
get
it
back?
12:12
Of
how much
more
value
is
a
man
than
a
sheep!
For
this
reason
it
is
right
to
do
good
on
the
Sabbath
day.
12:13
Then
said
he
to
the
man,
Put
out
your
hand.
And
he
put
it
out,
and
it
was
made
as well as
the
other.
12:14
But
the
Pharisees
went out
and
made
designs
against
him,
how
they
might
put
him
to
death.

 

12:15
And
Jesus,
having
knowledge
of
this,
went away
from
there,
and
a
great
number
went
after
him;
and
he
made
them
all
well,
12:16
Ordering
them
not
to
give
people
word
of
him:
12:17
So
that
what was said
by
Isaiah
the
prophet
might
come
true,
12:18
See
my
servant,
the
man
of
my
selection,
my
loved
one
in
whom
my
soul
is
well
pleased:
I
will
put
my
Spirit
on
him,
and
he
will
make
my
decision
clear
to
the
Gentiles.
12:19
His
coming
will not
be
with
fighting
or
loud
cries;
and
his
voice
will not
be
lifted
up
in
the
streets.
12:20
The
crushed
stem
will not
be
broken
by
him;
and
the
feebly
burning
light
will
he
not
put
out,
till
he
has
made
righteousness
overcome
all.
12:21
And
in
his
name
will
the
Gentiles
put
their
hope.
12:22
Then
they
took
to
him
one
with
an
evil
spirit,
who
was
blind
and
had
no
power
of
talking:
and
he
made
him
well
so
that
he
had
the
power
of
talking
and
seeing.
12:23
And
all
the
people
were
surprised
and
said,
Is
not
this
the
Son
of
David?
12:24
But
the
Pharisees,
hearing
of
it,
said,
This
man
only
sends
evil
spirits
out of
men
by
Beelzebub,
the
ruler
of
evil
spirits.
12:25
And
having
knowledge
of
their
thoughts
he
said
to
them,
Every
kingdom
having
division
in
itself
is
made
waste,
and
every
town
or
house
having
division
in
itself
will
come to
destruction.
12:26
And
if
Satan
sends
out
Satan,
he
makes
war
against
himself;
how
then
will
he
keep
his
kingdom?
12:27
And
if
I
by
Beelzebub
send
evil
spirits
out of
men,
by
whom
do
your
sons
send
them
out?
So
let
them
be
your
judges.
12:28
But
if
I
by
the
Spirit
of
God
send
out
evil
spirits,
then
is
the
kingdom
of
God
come
on
you.
12:29
Or
how
may
one
go into
a
strong
man’s
house
and
take
his
goods,
if
he
does not
first
put
cords
round
the
strong
man?
and
then
he
may
take
his
goods.
12:30
Whoever
is
not
with
me
is
against
me;
and
he
who
does not
take
part
with
me
in
getting
people
together,
is
driving
them
away.

 

12:31
So
I
say
to
you,
Every
sin
and
every
evil
word
against
God
will
have
forgiveness;
but
for
evil
words
against
the
Spirit
there
will
be
no
forgiveness.
12:32
And
whoever
says
a
word
against
the
Son
of
man,
will
have
forgiveness;
but
whoever
says
a
word
against
the
Holy Spirit,
will not
have
forgiveness
in
this
life
or
in
that
which
is
to
come.
12:33
Make
the
tree
good,
and
its
fruit
good;
or
make
the
tree
bad,
and
its
fruit
bad;
for
by
its
fruit
you
will
get
knowledge
of
the
tree.
12:34
You
offspring
of
snakes,
how are you,
being
evil,
able
to
say
good things?
because
out of
the
heart’s
store
come
the
words
of
the
mouth.
12:35
The
good
man
out of
his
good
store
gives
good things;
and
the
evil
man
out of
his
evil
store
gives
evil
things.
12:36
And
I
say
to
you
that
in
the
day
when
they
are
judged,
men
will
have to
give
an
account
of
every
foolish
word
they
have
said.
12:37
For
by
your
words
will
your
righteousness
be
seen,
and
by
your
words
you
will
be
judged.
12:38
Then
some
of
the
scribes
and
Pharisees,
hearing
this,
said
to
him,
Master,
we
are
looking
for
a
sign
from
you.
12:39
But
he,
answering,
said
to
them,
An
evil
and
false
generation
is
looking
for
a
sign;
and
no
sign
will
be
given
to
it
but
the
sign
of
the
prophet
Jonah:

 

12:40
For
as
Jonah
was
three days
and
three
nights
in
the
stomach
of
the
great
fish,
so
will
the
Son
of
man
be
three days
and
three
nights
in
the
heart
of
the
earth.
12:41
The
men
of
Nineveh
will
come
up
in
the
day
of
judging
and
give
their
decision
against
this
generation:
because
they
were
turned
from
their
sins
at
the
preaching
of
Jonah;
and
now
a
greater than
Jonah
is
here.
12:42
The
queen
of
the
South
will
come
up
in
the
day
of
judging
and
give
her
decision
against
this
generation:
for
she
came
from
the ends
of
the
earth
to
give
ear
to
the
wisdom
of
Solomon;
and
now
a
greater than
Solomon
is
here.
12:43
But
the
unclean
spirit,
when
he
is
gone out
of
a
man,
goes through
dry
places
looking
for
rest,
and
getting
it
not.
12:44
Then
he
says,
I
will
go back
into
my
house
from
which
I
came out;
and
when
he
comes,
he
sees
that
there
is
no
one
in
it,
but
that
it
has been
made
fair
and
clean.
12:45
Then
he
goes
and
takes
with
him
seven
other
spirits
worse
than
himself,
and
they
go
in
and
make
it
their
living-place:
and
the
last
condition
of
that
man
is
worse
than
the
first.
Even
so
will
it
be
with
this
evil
generation.
12:46
While
he
was
still
talking to
the
people,
his
mother
and
his
brothers
came,
desiring
to
have
talk
with
him.
12:47
And
one
said
to
him,
See,
your
mother
and
your
brothers
are
outside,
desiring
to
have
talk
with
you.
12:48
But
he
in
answer
said
to
him
who
gave
the
news,
Who
is
my
mother
and
who
are
my
brothers?
12:49
And
he
put
out
his
hand
to
his
disciples
and
said,
See,
my
mother
and
my
brothers!
12:50
For
whoever
does
the
pleasure
of
my
Father
in
heaven,
he
is
my
brother,
and
sister,
and
mother.
