40. Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

41. Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid ; and Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me:

42. And I know that thou hearest me always; but because of the people which stand by I said it; that they may believe that thou hast sent me.

43. And when he had thus spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

44. And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave clothes : and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.

45. Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.

46. But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done.

47. | Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council ; and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles.

48. If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him : and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation.

49. And one of them named

Caiaphas, being the high priest * M. XXVI. 57. ; L. III. 2. P. 13. that same year, * said unto them,

Ye know nothing at all ;

50. Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people ; and that the whole nation perish not.

51. And this spake he not of himself : but, being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation :

52. And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the chil. dren of God that were scattered abroad.

53. Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death.

54. Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews;

2. And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he gent them into his vineyard.

3. And he went out about the third hour, and saw others stand. ing idle in the market-place ;

4. And said unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way.

5. Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.

6. And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all day idle ?

8. So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the laborers, and give them their hire, begirning from the last upto the first.

9. And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.

10. But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more ; and they likewise received every man penny.

11. And when they received it, they murmured against the good man of the house ;

12. Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thoa hast made them equal unto us, which bave borne the burden and heat of the day.

13. But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong. Didst not thou agree with me for a penny ?

14. Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last even as unto thee.

15. Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own ? Is thine eye evil, because I am good ?

16. So the last shall be first, and the first last. (For many be called, but few chosen.]*
