1One time Jesus was walking through some grain fields on a Sabbath. His disciples were picking the heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands, and eating them.

1On a Sabbath, he passed through the grainfields. His disciples were picking heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands, and eating them.

2Some of the Pharisees asked, "Why are you doing what isn't lawful on Sabbath days?"

2But some of the Pharisees said, "Why are you doing what is not lawful on the Sabbath?"

3Jesus answered them, "Haven't you read what David did when he and his companions became hungry?

3Jesus answered them, "Haven't you read what David and those who were with him did when he was hungry--

4How was it that he went into the house of God, took the Bread of the Presence and ate it, which was not lawful for anyone but the priests to eat, and then gave some of it to his companions?"

4how he entered the house of God and took and ate the bread of the Presence, which is not lawful for any but the priests to eat? He even gave some to those who were with him."

5Then he told them, "The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath."

6Once, on another Sabbath, Jesus went into a synagogue and began teaching. A man whose right hand was paralyzed was there.

6On another Sabbath he entered the synagogue and was teaching. A man was there whose right hand was shriveled.

7The scribes and the Pharisees were watching Jesus closely to see whether he would heal on the Sabbath, in order to find a way of accusing him of doing something wrong.

7The scribes and Pharisees were watching him closely, to see if he would heal on the Sabbath, so that they could find a charge against him.

8But Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he told the man with the paralyzed hand, "Get up, and stand in the middle of the synagogue." So he got up and stood there.

8But he knew their thoughts and told the man with the shriveled hand, "Get up and stand here." So he got up and stood there.

9Then Jesus asked them, "I ask you, is it lawful to do good or to do evil on the Sabbath, to save a life or to destroy it?"

9Then Jesus said to them, "I ask you: Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil, to save life or to destroy it?"

10He looked around at all of them and then told the man, "Hold out your hand." The man did so, and his hand was restored to health.

10After looking around at them all, he told him, "Stretch out your hand." He did, and his hand was restored.

11The others were furious and began to discuss with each other what they could do to Jesus.

11They, however, were filled with rage and started discussing with one another what they might do to Jesus.

12Now it was in those days that Jesus went to a mountain to pray, and he spent the whole night in prayer to God.

12During those days he went out to the mountain to pray and spent all night in prayer to God.

13When daylight came, he called his disciples and chose twelve of them, whom he also called apostles:

16Judas (the son of James), and Judas Iscariot (who became a traitor).

17Then Jesus came down with them and stood on a level place, along with many of his disciples and a large gathering of people from all over Judea, Jerusalem, and the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon.

17After coming down with them, he stood on a level place with a large crowd of his disciples and a great number of people from all Judea and Jerusalem and from the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon.

18They had come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases. Even those who were being tormented by unclean spirits were being healed.

19The entire crowd was trying to touch him, because power was coming out from him and healing all of them.

20Then Jesus looked at his disciples and said, "How blessed are you who are destitute, because the kingdom of God is yours!

20Then looking up at his disciples, he said: Blessed are you who are poor, because the kingdom of God is yours.

21How blessed are you who are hungry now, because you will be satisfied! How blessed are you who are crying now, because you will laugh!

21Blessed are you who are now hungry, because you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, because you will laugh.

22"How blessed are you whenever people hate you, avoid you, insult you, and slander you because of the Son of Man!

22Blessed are you when people hate you, when they exclude you, insult you, and slander your name as evil because of the Son of Man.

23Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, because your reward in heaven is great! That's the way their ancestors used to treat the prophets.

25Woe to you who are now full, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who are now laughing, for you will mourn and weep.

26"How terrible it will be for you when everyone says nice things about you, because that's the way their ancestors used to treat the false prophets!"

26Woe to you when all people speak well of you, for this is the way their ancestors used to treat the false prophets.

43"A good tree doesn't produce bad fruit; on the other hand, a bad tree doesn't produce good fruit.

44because every tree is known by its own fruit. People don't gather figs from thorny plants or pick grapes from a thorn bush.

44For each tree is known by its own fruit. Figs aren't gathered from thornbushes, or grapes picked from a bramble bush.

47I will show you what everyone is like who comes to me, hears my words, and acts on them.

47I will show you what someone is like who comes to me, hears my words, and acts on them:

48They are like a person building a house, who dug a deep hole to lay the foundation on rock. When a flood came, the floodwaters pushed against that house but couldn't shake it, because it had been founded on the rock.

48He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. When the flood came, the river crashed against that house and couldn't shake it, because it was well built.

49But the person who hears what I say but doesn't act on it is like someone who built a house on the ground without any foundation. When the floodwaters pushed against it, that house quickly collapsed, and the resulting destruction of that house was extensive."

49But the one who hears and does not act is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. The river crashed against it, and immediately it collapsed. And the destruction of that house was great."
