1 It happened° that while° IJesus was praying° in a certain° place°, after° He had finished°, one° of His disciples° said° to Him, “Lord°, teach° us to pray° just° as John° also° taught° his disciples°.” 2 And He said° to them, aWhen° you pray°, say°:
  IFather°, hallowed° be Your name°.
  Your kingdom° come°.
  3 ‘Give° us aeach° day° our Idaily° bread°.
  4 ‘And forgive° us our sins°,
  For we ourselves° also° forgive° everyone° who ais indebted° to us.
  And lead° us not into temptation°.’”

Christ teacheth to pray, and that instantly:

1 ¶ Andº it came to pass,ºª that, as¹ heº wasºª prayingºª inº a certainº place,º whenº he ceased,¹ª² oneº of hisº disciplesº saidºª untoº him,º Lord,º teachºª usº to pray,ºª asº Johnº alsoº taughtºª his¹² disciples.º 2 Andº he saidºª unto them,º Whenº ye pray,ºª say,ºª Ourº Fatherº whichº art inº heaven,º Hallowed² be¹ª thyº name.º Thyº kingdomº come.ºª Thyº willº be done,ºª asº inº heaven,º soº inº earth.º 3 Giveºª usº day¹ by dayº² ourº dailyº bread.º 4 Andº forgiveºª usº ourº sins;º forº weº alsoº forgiveºª every oneº that is indebtedºª to us.º Andº leadºª usº notº intoº temptation;º butº deliverºª usº fromº evil.º 5 Andº he saidºª untoº them,º Whichº ofº youº shall haveºª a friend,º andº shall goºª untoº himº at midnight,º andº sayºª unto him,º Friend,º lendºª meº threeº loaves;º 6 Forº a friendº of mineº inº his journeyº is comeºª toº me,º andº I haveºª nothingº¹ to² set beforeºª him?º 7 And heº from withinº shall answerºª and say,ºª Trouble¹¹ª me¹ not:º²²² the² doorº is¹ª nowº shut,ºª andº myº childrenº areºª withº meº inº bed;º I cannotººª riseºª and giveºª thee.º 8 I sayºª unto you,º Thoughº he will¹ª notº rise¹ª² and giveºª him,º because¹ he isºª hisº friend,º yetº becauseº of hisº importunityº he will rise¹ª² and giveºª himº as many asº he needeth.ºª 9 And¹ I² sayºª unto you,º Ask,ºª andº it shall be givenºª you;º seek,ºª andº ye shall find;ºª knock,ºª andº it shall be openedºª unto you.º 10 Forº every oneº that askethºª receiveth;ºª andº he that seekethºª findeth;ºª andº to him that knockethºª it shall be opened.ºª

He casting out a dumb devil, rebuketh the blasphemous Pharisees:

14 ¶ Andº he wasºª casting outºª a devil,º andº itº wasºª dumb.º Andº it came to pass,ºª when the² devilº was gone out,ºª the² dumbº spake;ºª andº the² peopleº wondered.ºª 15 Butº someº ofº themº said,ºª He casteth outºª devilsº throughº Beelzebubº the chiefº of the² devils.º 16 Andº others,º temptingºª [him], soughtºª ofº himº a signº fromº heaven.º 17 Butº he,º knowingºª theirº thoughts,º saidºª unto them,º Everyº kingdomº dividedºª againstº itselfº is brought to desolation;ºª andº a houseº [divided] againstº a houseº falleth.ºª 18 ² If¹¹ª² Satanº also¹² be dividedºª againstº himself,º howº shall¹ª hisº kingdomº stand?ºª becauseº ye sayºª that Iº cast outºª devilsº throughº Beelzebub.º 19 Andº ifº Iº byº Beelzebubº cast outºª devils,º byº whomº do¹ª yourº sonsº cast [them] out?ºª thereforeºº shall theyº beºª yourº judges.º 20 Butº ifº I withº the fingerº of Godº cast outºª devils,º no doubtº the² kingdomº of Godº is comeºª uponº you.º 21 Whenº a strong manº armedºª keepethºª his¹² palace,¹² hisº goodsºª areºª inº peace:º 22 Butº whenº a strongerº than heº shall come upon² him,¹ª and overcomeºª him,º he takethºª from him¹ all his armourº² whereinºº he trusted,ºª andº dividethºª hisº spoils.º 23 He that isºª notº withº meº isºª againstº me:º andº he that gatherethºª notº withº meº scattereth.ºª 24 Whenº the² uncleanº spiritº is goneºª out ofº a man,º he walkethºª throughº dryº places,º seekingºª rest;º andº findingºª none,º he saith,ºª I will returnºª untoº myº houseº whenceº I came out.ºª 25 Andº when he cometh,ºª he findethºª [it] sweptºª andº garnished.ºª 26 Thenº goeth² he,¹ª andº takethºª [to him] sevenº otherº spiritsº more wickedº than himself;º andº they enter in,ºª and² dwellºª there:º andº the² lastº [state] of thatº manº isºª worseº than the² first.º
