THE PRECEPTS OF JESUS.
Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. For there is nothing-
covered, that shall not be revealed ; neither hid, that
shall not be known. Therefore whatsoever ye have
spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light ; and that
which ye have spoken in the ear in closets, shall be
proclaimed^ upon the house-tops. And I say unto you
my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body and
after that have no more that they can do. But I will
forewarn you whom ye shall fear : fear him, which after
he hath killed hath power to cast into hell ; yea, I say
unto you, fear him. Are not five sparrows sold for two-
farthings ? and not one of them is forgotten before God :.
but even the very hairs of your head are all numbered-
Fear not therefore : ye are of more value than many
sparrows. Also I say unto you, "Whosoever shall confess-
me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess
before the angels of God : but he that denieth me be-
fore men shall be denied before the angels of Gcd. And
whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it
shall be forgiven him : but unto him that blasphemeth
against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven. And
when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto
magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought)how or
what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say : for
the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what
ye ought to say. And one of the company said unto
him, Master, speak to my brother, that he divide
the inheritance Svith me. And he said unto him, Man,,
who made me a judge or a divider over you ? And he
said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness :
for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the
things which he possesseth. And he spake a parable
