Matthäus 12 | King James Version
1At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.2But when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto him, Behold, thy disciples do that which is not lawful to do upon the sabbath day.3But he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was an hungred, and they that were with him;4How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?5Or have ye not read in the law, how that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?6But I say unto you, That in this place is one greater than the temple.7But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.8For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath day.9And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:10And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might accuse him.11And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?12How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.13Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.14Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him.15But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;16And charged them that they should not make him known:17That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,18Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles.19He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice in the streets.20A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.21And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.22Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake and saw.23And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?24But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils.25And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand:26And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how shall then his kingdom stand?27And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges.28But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.29Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.30He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.31Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.32And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.33Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.34O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.35A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.36But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.37For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.38Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we would see a sign from thee.39But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:40For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.41The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: because they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and, behold, a greater than Jonas is here.42The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon is here.43When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.44Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.45Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.46While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him.47Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee.48But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?49And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!50For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
New International Reader’s Version
Jesus is Lord of the Sabbath day
1One Sabbath day Jesus walked through the cornfields. His disciples were hungry. So they began to break off some ears of corn and eat them.2The Pharisees saw this. They said to Jesus, ‘Look! It is against the Law to do this on the Sabbath day. But your disciples are doing it anyway!’3Jesus answered, ‘Haven’t you read about what David did? He and his men were hungry.4So he entered the house of God. He and his men ate the holy bread. Only priests were allowed to eat it.5Haven’t you read the Law? It tells how every Sabbath day the priests in the temple have to do their work on that day. But they are not considered guilty.6I tell you that something more important than the temple is here.7Scripture says, “I want mercy and not sacrifice.” You don’t know what those words mean. If you did, you would not bring charges against those who are not guilty.8The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath day.’9Going on from that place, Jesus went into their synagogue.10A man with a weak and twisted hand was there. The Pharisees were trying to accuse Jesus of a crime. So they asked him, ‘Does the Law allow us to heal on the Sabbath day?’11He said to them, ‘What if one of your sheep falls into a pit on the Sabbath day? Won’t you take hold of it and lift it out?12A person is worth more than sheep! So the Law allows us to do good on the Sabbath day.’13Then Jesus said to the man, ‘Stretch out your hand.’ So he stretched it out. It had been made as good as new. It was just as good as the other hand.14But the Pharisees went out and planned how to kill Jesus.
God’s chosen servant
15Jesus knew all about the Pharisees’ plans. So he left that place. A large crowd followed him, and he healed all who were ill.16But he warned them not to tell other people about him.17This was to make what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah come true. It says,18‘Here is my servant. I have chosen him. He is the one I love. I am very pleased with him. I will put my Spirit on him. He will announce to the nations that everything will be made right.19He will not argue or cry out. No one will hear his voice in the streets.20He will not break a bent twig. He will not put out a dimly burning flame. He will make right win over wrong.21The nations will put their hope in him.’
Jesus and Beelzebul
22A man controlled by demons was brought to Jesus. The man was blind and could not speak. Jesus healed him. Then the man could speak and see.23All the people were amazed. They said, ‘Could this be the Son of David?’24The Pharisees heard this. So they said, ‘This fellow drives out demons by the power of Beelzebul, the prince of demons.’25Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he said to them, ‘Every kingdom that fights against itself will be destroyed. Every city or family that is divided against itself will not stand.26If Satan drives out Satan, he fights against himself. Then how can his kingdom stand?27You say I drive out demons by the power of Beelzebul. Then by whose power do your people drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.28But suppose I drive out demons by the Spirit of God. Then the kingdom of God has come to you.29‘Or think about this. How can you enter a strong man’s house and just take what the man owns? You must first tie him up. Then you can rob his house.30‘Anyone who is not with me is against me. Anyone who does not gather sheep with me scatters them.31So here is what I tell you. Every kind of sin and every evil word spoken against God will be forgiven. But speaking evil things against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.32Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven. But anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven. A person like that won’t be forgiven either now or in days to come.33‘If you make a tree good, its fruit will be good. If you make a tree bad, its fruit will be bad. You can tell a tree by its fruit.34You nest of poisonous snakes! How can you who are evil say anything good? Your mouths say everything that is in your hearts.35A good man says good things. These come from the good that is stored up inside him. An evil man says evil things. These come from the evil that is stored up inside him.36But here is what I tell you. On judgment day, everyone will have to account for every empty word they have spoken.37By your words you will be found guilty or not guilty.’
The sign of Jonah
38Some of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law came to Jesus. They said, ‘Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.’39He answered, ‘Evil and unfaithful people ask for a sign! But none will be given except the sign of the prophet Jonah.40Jonah was in the belly of a huge fish for three days and three nights. Something like that will happen to the Son of Man. He will spend three days and three nights in the grave.41The men of Nineveh will stand up on judgment day with the people now living. And the Ninevites will prove that these people are guilty. The men of Nineveh turned away from their sins when Jonah preached to them. And now something more important than Jonah is here.42The Queen of the South will stand up on judgment day with the people now living. And she will prove that they are guilty. She came from very far away to listen to Solomon’s wisdom. And now something more important than Solomon is here.43‘What happens when an evil spirit comes out of a person? It goes through dry areas looking for a place to rest. But it doesn’t find it.44Then it says, “I will return to the house I left.” When it arrives there, it finds the house empty. The house has been swept clean and put in order.45Then the evil spirit goes and takes with it seven other spirits more evil than itself. They go in and live there. That person is worse off than before. That is how it will be with the evil people of today.’
Jesus’ mother and brothers
46While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside. They wanted to speak to him.47Someone told him, ‘Your mother and brothers are standing outside. They want to speak to you.’48Jesus replied to him, ‘Who is my mother? And who are my brothers?’49Jesus pointed to his disciples. He said, ‘Here is my mother! Here are my brothers!50Anyone who does what my Father in heaven wants is my brother or sister or mother.’
