For they all offered their gifts out of their wealth.<n id="1" /> But she, out of her poverty, put in everything she had to live on.&#8221;<n id="2" />p>

He<n id="1" /> said, &#8220;Watch out<n id="2" /> that you are not misled. For many will come in my name, saying, &#8216;I am he,&#8217;<n id="3" /> and, &#8216;The time is near.&#8217; Do not follow them!

But before all this,<n id="1" /> they will seize<n id="2" /> you and persecute you, handing you over to the synagogues<n id="3" /> and prisons. You<n id="4" /> will be brought before kings and governors because of my name.

He said to them, &#8220;Listen,<n id="1" /> when you have entered the city, a man carrying a jar of water<n id="2" /> will meet you.<n id="3" /> Follow him into the house that he enters,

He said to them, &#8220;But now, the one who<n id="1" /> has a money bag must take it, and likewise a traveler&#8217;s bag<n id="2" /> too. And the one who has no sword must sell his cloak and buy one.

They<n id="1" /> began to accuse<n id="2" /> him, saying, &#8220;We found this man subverting<n id="3" /> our nation, forbidding<n id="4" /> us to pay the tribute tax<n id="5" /> to Caesar<n id="6" /> and claiming that he himself is Christ,<n id="7" /> a king.&#8221;

When<n id="1" /> Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, for he had long desired to see him, because he had heard about him and was hoping to see him perform<n id="2" /> some miraculous sign.<n id="3" />

The people also stood there watching, but the rulers ridiculed<n id="1" /> him, saying, &#8220;He saved others. Let him save<n id="2" /> himself if<n id="3" /> he is the Christ<n id="4" /> of God, his chosen one!&#8221;

But Peter got up and ran to the tomb.<n id="1" /> He bent down<n id="2" /> and saw only the strips of linen cloth;<n id="3" /> then he went home,<n id="4" /> wondering<n id="5" /> what had happened.<n id="6" />p>

Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him,<n id="1" /> &#8220;Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who doesn&#8217;t know<n id="2" /> the things that have happened there<n id="3" /> in these days?&#8221;

He<n id="1" /> said to them, &#8220;What things?&#8221; &#8220;The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene,&#8221; they replied, &#8220;a man<n id="2" /> who, with his powerful deeds and words, proved to be a prophet<n id="3" /> before God and all the people;

But we had hoped<n id="1" /> that he was the one who was going to redeem<n id="2" /> Israel. Not only this, but it is now the third day since these things happened.

<t /><p class="bodytext">Then<n id="1" /> he said to them, &#8220;These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about me<n id="2" /> in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms<n id="3" /> must be fulfilled.&#8221;

And look, I am sending you<n id="1" /> what my Father promised.<n id="2" /> But stay in the city<n id="3" /> until you have been clothed with power<n id="4" /> from on high.&#8221;p>

John answered them all,<n id="1" /> &#8220;I baptize you with water,<n id="2" /> but one more powerful than I am is coming &#8211; I am not worthy<n id="3" /> to untie the strap<n id="4" /> of his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.<n id="5" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">While<n id="1" /> Jesus<n id="2" /> was in one of the towns,<n id="3" /> a man came<n id="4" /> to him who was covered with<n id="5" /> leprosy.<n id="6" /> When<n id="7" /> he saw Jesus, he bowed down with his face to the ground<n id="8" /> and begged him,<n id="9" /> &#8220;Lord, if<n id="10" /> you are willing, you can make me clean.&#8221;

But so that you may know<n id="1" /> that the Son of Man<n id="2" /> has authority on earth to forgive sins&#8221; &#8211; he said to the paralyzed man<n id="3" /> &#8211; &#8220;I tell you, stand up, take your stretcher<n id="4" /> and go home.&#8221;<n id="5" />

He is like a man<n id="1" /> building a house, who dug down deep,<n id="2" /> and laid the foundation on bedrock. When<n id="3" /> a flood came, the river<n id="4" /> burst against that house but<n id="5" /> could not shake it, because it had been well built.<n id="6" />

Then,<n id="1" /> turning toward the woman, he said to Simon, &#8220;Do you see this woman? I entered your house. You gave me no water for my feet,<n id="2" /> but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.

The expert<n id="1" /> answered, &#8220;<b><i>Lovei>b><n id="2" /> <b><i>the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mindi>b>,<n id="3" /> and <b><i>love your neighbor as yourselfi>b>.&#8221;<n id="4" />
