A Man with a Paralyzed Hand
(Matthew 12.9-14Luke 6.6-11)1 The next time Jesus went into the synagogue, a man with a paralyzed hand was there. 2 The Pharisees wanted to accuse Jesus of doing something wrong, and they kept watching to see if Jesus would heal him on the Sabbath.
3 Jesus told the man to stand up where everyone could see him. 4 Then he asked, “On the Sabbath should we do good deeds or evil deeds? Should we save someone's life or destroy it?” But no one said a word.
5 Jesus was angry as he looked around at the people. Yet he felt sorry for them because they were so stubborn. Then he told the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He did, and his bad hand was healed.
6 The Pharisees left. And at once they started making plans with Herod's followers to kill Jesus.
Large Crowds Come to Jesus
7 Jesus led his disciples down to the shore of the lake. Large crowds followed him from Galilee, Judea, 8 and Jerusalem. People came from Idumea, as well as other places east of the Jordan River. They also came from the region around the towns of Tyre and Sidon. All of these crowds came because they had heard what Jesus was doing. 9 He even had to tell his disciples to get a boat ready to keep him from being crushed by the crowds.
10 After Jesus had healed many people, the other sick people begged him to let them touch him. 11 And whenever any evil spirits saw Jesus, they would fall to the ground and shout, “You are the Son of God!” 12 But Jesus warned the spirits not to tell who he was.
Jesus Chooses His Twelve Apostles
(Matthew 10.1-4Luke 6.12-16)13 Jesus decided to ask some of his disciples to go up on a mountain with him, and they went. 14 Then he chose twelve of them to be his apostles, so they could be with him. He also wanted to send them out to preach 15 and to force out demons. 16 Simon was one of the twelve, and Jesus named him Peter. 17 There were also James and John, the two sons of Zebedee. Jesus called them Boanerges, which means “Thunderbolts.” 18 Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus were also apostles. The others were Simon, known as the Eager One, 19 and Judas Iscariot, who later betrayed Jesus.
Jesus and the Ruler of Demons
(Matthew 12.22-32Luke 11.14-23Luke 12.10)20 Jesus went back home, and once again such a large crowd gathered that there was no chance even to eat. 21 When Jesus' family heard what he was doing, they thought he was crazy and went to get him under control.
22 Some teachers of the Law of Moses came from Jerusalem and said, “This man is under the power of Beelzebul, the ruler of demons! He is even forcing out demons with the help of Beelzebul.”
23 Jesus told the people to gather around him. Then he spoke to them in riddles and said:
How can Satan force himself out? 24 A nation whose people fight each other won't last very long. 25 And a family that fights won't last long either. 26 So if Satan fights against himself, that will be the end of him.
27 How can anyone break into the house of a strong man and steal his things, unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can take everything.
28 I promise you that any of the sinful things you say or do can be forgiven, no matter how terrible those things are. 29 But if you speak against the Holy Spirit, you can never be forgiven. That sin will be held against you forever.
30 Jesus said this because the people were saying that he had an evil spirit in him.
Jesus' Mother and Brothers
(Matthew 12.46-50Luke 8.19-21)31 Jesus' mother and brothers came and stood outside. Then they sent someone with a message for him to come out to them. 32 The crowd sitting around Jesus told him, “Your mother and your brothers and sisters are outside and want to see you.”
33 Jesus asked, “Who is my mother and who are my brothers?” 34 Then he looked at the people sitting around him and said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. 35 Anyone who obeys God is my brother or sister or mother.”

Izveseļōšona sabatā.
1 Jys otkon reizi īgōja synagogā. Tur beja vīns cylvāks ar nūkoltušu rūku.
2 Jī tēmēja, vai Jys sabatā nadareis tō vasala, lai varātu Jū apsyudzēt.
3 Tūlaik Jys saceja tam cylvākam, kuram beja nūkoltuse rūka: Izej uz vyds! 4 Un saceja jim: Kas sabatā ir jōdora: lobs vai ļauns? Jōizglōb dzeiveiba vai jōļaun jai iznikt? Bet tī klusēja. 5 Tad, uzmetis uz jim vysapkōrt dusmeigu skotu un nūgrimis skumē jūs cītsirdeibas dēļ, saceja tam cylvākam: Izstīp sovu rūku! Jys izstīpe, un jō rūka palyka vasala.
6 Farizeji tyuleņ, izgōjuši ōrā, īsōce sarunas ar Eroda pīkritējim, kai Jū nūbeigt.
Jezus un tauta.
7 Bet Jezus reizē ar sovim mōceklim nūgōja atpakaļ uz jyuras molu. Nu Galilejas gōja Jam pakaļ leli ļaužu pulki. 8 Ari nu Judeas un Jeruzalemas, nu Idumejas un nu viņpus Jordana molas, nu Tyras un Sydonas, dzēržūt par Jō dorbim, lels daudzums gōja pi Jō.
9 Un, lai ļaužu daudzums nanūmīgtu, Jys pīsaceja sovim mōceklim, lai sagatavōtu Jam laivu. 10 Tai kai daudzejūs beja padarejis vasalus, tod tī, kam beja kaida slimeiba, lauzēs klōtu, lai pi Jō dasadūrtu. 11 Īraudzejuši Jū, naškeistī gori kryta pret Jū uz zemes un sauce: Tu esi Dīva Dāls. 12 Bet Jys tim stipri nūlīdze Jū izdaudzynōt.
Apostolu izlaseišona.
13 Tad Jys uzkōpe kolnā un paaicynōja pi Sevis tūs, kurus gribēja; un tī pīgōja pi Jō. 14 Un Jys izlaseja divpadsmit, lai tī byutu ar Jū un lai jūs vēļōk syuteit sludynōtu, 15 un deve jim varu izdzeit ļaunūs gorus. 16 Jys izlaseja divpadsmit nōkušūs: Seimani, kuru nūsauce par Pīteri, 17 Zebedeju dālu Jākubu un Jākuba brōli Jōni, kurus nūsauce par Boanerges, tys ir pārkyuņa dāli; 18 Tad Andrivi, Filipu, Bārtuli, Mateusu, Tomasu, Alfeja dālu Jākubu, Tadeusu, Seimani Centeigū 19 un Judasu Iskariotu, kurs Jū nūdeve.
K. Jezus apvaiņōšona.
20 Tad jī nūgōja uz sātu. Bet te sasalaseja tik daudz ļaužu, ka jim nabeja varams pat maizes īēst. 21 Izdzērduši tū, Jō tyvōkī gōja, lai Jū sajimtu cīši, jo teice, ka Jys asūt zaudējis prōtu.
22 Rokstim mōceitī, kas beja nu Jeruzalemas atgōjuši, sauce: Jamā ir Beelzebubs, Jys valnus izdzan caur valna vērsinīku.
23 Tad, pasaucis jūs klōtu, jim runōja leidzeibōs: Kai var satans izdzeit satanu? 24 Jo kura kēnests ir sasaškāluse poša sevī, tad jei navar pastōvēt. 25 Un jo kura mōja poša sevī ir sasaškāluse, tad jei navar pastōvēt. 26 Tai tad, jo satans uzastōj pats pret sevi un sevī sasaškeļ, tad jys vairs navar pastōvēt, bet gon jam ir jōizneikst. 27 Taču nikas navar cytaiž īsalauzt styprōkō mōjā un izlaupeit jō montu, kai īprīkš sasējis styprōkū; un tūlaik izlaupeis jō mōju.
28 Patīši, Es jums soku: cylvāka bārnim visi grāki un zaimōšonas tiks atlaistas, lai cik daudz jī ari tūs dareitu; 29 bet, kas Svātū Goru zaimoj, tys myužam atlaisšonas nasajems, bet gon paliks grāka vaineigs myužeigi. 30 Jī tadei saceja: Jamā ir naškeists gors.
K. Jezus radinīki.
31 Tad atgōja Jō mōte un brōli. Jī palyka stōvādami ōrā un lyka Jū pasaukt. 32 Ļaužu pulkam apkōrt ap Jū sēžūt, saceja: Raug, ōrā ir tova mōte, tovi brōli, un jī Tevi meklej.
33 Jys atbiļdēja: Kas ir muna mōte un kas ir muni brōli? 34 Tad, uzmetis skotu apkōrt uz tim, kas apkōrt Jam sēdēja, saceja: Raug, ir muna mōte un muni brōli! 35 Kas pylda Dīva grybu, tys ir Muns brōļs, mōsa un mōte.
