12Let us, therefore, lie in wait for the just, because he is not for our turn, and he is contrary to our doings, and upbraideth us with transgressions of the law, and divulgeth against us the sins of our way of life.

17Let us see then if his words be true, and let us prove what shall happen to him, and we shall know what his end shall be.

18For if he be the true son of God, he will defend him, and will deliver him from the hands of his enemies.

19Let us examine him by outrages and tortures, that we may know his meekness, and try his patience.

20Let us condemn him to a most shameful death: for there shall be respect had unto him by his words.

3Save me, O God, by thy name, and judge me in thy strength.

4O God, hear my prayer: give ear to the words of my mouth.

5For strangers have risen up against me; and the mighty have sought after my soul: and they have not set God before their eyes.

6For behold God is my helper: and the Lord is the protector of my soul.

7Turn back the evils upon my enemies; and cut them off in thy truth.

8I will freely sacrifice to thee, and will give praise, O God, to thy name: because it is good:

16For where envying and contention is: there is inconstancy and every evil work.

17But the wisdom that is from above, first indeed is chaste, then peaceable, modest, easy to be persuaded, consenting to the good, full of mercy and good fruits, without judging, without dissimulation.

18And the fruit of justice is sown in peace, to them that make peace.

1From whence are wars and contentions among you? Are they not hence, from your concupiscences, which war in your members?

2You covet, and have not: you kill and envy and cannot obtain. You contend and war, and you have not: because you ask not.

3You ask and receive not: because you ask amiss, that you may consume it on your concupiscences.

14Therefore, brethren, stand fast: and hold the traditions, which you have learned, whether by word or by our epistle.

30And he taught his disciples and said to them: The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise again the third day.

31But they understood not the word: and they were afraid to ask him.

32And they came to Capharnaum. And when they were in the house, he asked them: What did you treat of in the way?

33But they held their peace, for in the way they had disputed among themselves, which of them should be the greatest.

34And sitting down, he called the twelve and saith to them: If any man desire to be first, he shall be the last of all and be minister of all.

35And taking a child, he set him in the midst of them. Whom when he had embraced, he saith to them:

36Whosoever shall receive one such child as this in my name receiveth me. And whosoever shall receive me receiveth not me but him that sent me.

37John answered him, saying: Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, who followeth not us: and we forbade him.
