Matthew 11:1-13

1 - And it came to pass, when Jesus had made anend of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and topreach in their cities.

2 - Now when John had heard in the prison theworks of Christ, he sent two of his disciples,

3 - And said unto him, Art thou he that shouldcome, or do we look for another?

4 - Jesus answered and said unto them, Go andshew John again those things which ye do hear and see:

5 - The blind receive their sight, and the lamewalk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, andthe poor have the gospel preached to them.

6 - And blessed is he, whosoever shall not beoffended in me.

7 - And as they departed, Jesus began to sayunto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness tosee? A reed shaken with the wind?

8 - But what went ye out for to see? A manclothed in soft raiment? behold, they that wear soft clothing are in kings'houses.

9 - But what went ye out for to see? A prophet?yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet.

10 - For this is he, of whom it is written,Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way beforethee.

11 - Verily I say unto you, Among them that areborn of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist:notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

12 - And from the days of John the Baptistuntil now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it byforce.

13 - For all the prophets and the lawprophesied until John.

Matthew 11:28-30

28 - Come unto me, all ye that labour and areheavy laden, and I will give you rest.

29 - Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me;for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

30 - For my yoke is easy, and my burden islight.
