The Gospel According to Luke
CHAPTER 1
Luke 1:1
1 Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of
those things which are most surely believed among us, Luke 1:2
2 Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were
eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word; Luke 1:3
3 It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things
from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,
Luke 1:4
4 That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been
instructed.
Luke 1:5
5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named
Zacharias, of the course of Abia:  and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron,
and her name was Elisabeth.
Luke 1:6
6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and
ordinances of the Lord  blameless. Luke 1:7
7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were 
now well stricken in years.
Luke 1:8
8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God in
the order of his course,
Luke 1:9
9 According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense
when he went into the temple of the Lord. Luke 1:10
10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of
incense.
Luke 1:11
11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side
of the altar of incense.
Luke 1:12
12 And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him. Luke
1:13
13 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard;
and  thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name
John.
Luke 1:14
14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
Luke 1:15
15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine
nor strong drink; and he shall be filled  with the Holy Ghost, even from his
mother's womb.
Luke 1:16
16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God. Luke
1:17
17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the
hearts of the fathers  to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of
the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord. Luke 1:18
18 And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an
old man, and  my wife well stricken in years. Luke 1:19
19 And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the
presence of God; and am sent  to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad
tidings.
Luke 1:20
20 And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that
these things shall be performed,  because thou believest not my words, which
shall be fulfilled in their season. Luke 1:21
21 And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long
in the temple.
Luke 1:22
22 And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that
he had seen a vision in the temple:  for he beckoned unto them, and remained
speechless.
Luke 1:23
23 And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were
accomplished, he departed to his own house. Luke 1:24
24 And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five
months,  saying,
Luke 1:25
25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me, to
take away my reproach among men.
Luke 1:26
26 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of
Galilee, named  Nazareth,
Luke 1:27
27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David;
and the virgin's name  was Mary. Luke 1:28
28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly
favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. Luke 1:29
29 And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind
what manner of salutation this should be. Luke 1:30
30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with
God.
Luke 1:31
31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and
shalt call his name JESUS.
Luke 1:32
32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord
God shall give unto him the throne  of his father David: Luke 1:33
33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom
there shall be no end.
Luke 1:34
34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
Luke 1:35
35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon
thee, and the power of the Highest  shall overshadow thee: therefore also that
holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. Luke
1:36
36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old
age:  and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren. Luke 1:37
37 For with God nothing shall be impossible. Luke 1:38
38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to
thy word. And the angel  departed from her. Luke 1:39
39 And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste,
into a city  of Juda;
Luke 1:40
40 And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth. Luke 1:41
41 And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the
babe leaped in her womb; and  Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost: Luke
1:42
42 And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. Luke 1:43
43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? Luke
1:44
44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the
babe leaped in  my womb for joy.
Luke 1:45
45 And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those
things which were told her from the Lord. Luke 1:46
46 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, Luke 1:47
47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. Luke 1:48
48 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from
henceforth all generations shall call me  blessed. Luke 1:49
49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
Luke 1:50
50 And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation. Luke
1:51
51 He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the
imagination of their hearts.
Luke 1:52
52 He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low
degree.
Luke 1:53
53 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty
away.
Luke 1:54
54 He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy; Luke 1:55
55 As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever. Luke 1:56
56 And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her own house.
Luke 1:57
57 Now Elisabeth's full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought
forth a son.
Luke 1:58
58 And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had shewed great mercy
upon her; and  they rejoiced with her. Luke 1:59
59 And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the
child; and they called him Zacharias, after  the name of his father. Luke 1:60
60 And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John. Luke
1:61
61 And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this
name.
Luke 1:62
62 And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called. Luke 1:63
63 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And
they marvelled all.
Luke 1:64
64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake,
and praised God.
Luke 1:65
65 And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were
noised abroad throughout  all the hill country of Judaea. Luke 1:66
66 And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What
manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him. Luke 1:67
67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied,
saying,
Luke 1:68
68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his
people,
Luke 1:69
69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant
David;
Luke 1:70
70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the
world began:
Luke 1:71
71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate
us;
Luke 1:72
72 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy
covenant;
Luke 1:73
73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham, Luke 1:74
74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our
enemies might serve him without fear, Luke 1:75
75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life. Luke
1:76
76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt
go before the face of the Lord to prepare his  ways; Luke 1:77
77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their
sins,
Luke 1:78
78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath
visited us,
Luke 1:79
79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to
guide our feet into the way of peace. Luke 1:80
80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till
the day of his  shewing unto Israel. CHAPTER 2
Luke 2:1
1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar
Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. Luke 2:2
2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) Luke
2:3
3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. Luke 2:4
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into
Judaea, unto the city  of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of
the house and lineage of David:) Luke 2:5
5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. Luke 2:6
6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that
she should be delivered.
Luke 2:7
7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling
clothes, and laid him in  a manger; because there was no room for them in the
inn.
Luke 2:8
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping
watch over their flock by night.
Luke 2:9
9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord
shone round about them: and they were sore  afraid. Luke 2:10
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good
tidings of great joy,  which shall be to all people. Luke 2:11
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is
Christ the Lord.
Luke 2:12
12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in
swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. Luke 2:13
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host
praising God, and saying,
Luke 2:14
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. Luke
2:15
15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the
shepherds said one to  another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this
thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
Luke 2:16
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in
a manger.
Luke 2:17
17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told
them concerning this child.
Luke 2:18
18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by
the shepherds.
Luke 2:19
19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. Luke 2:20
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things
that they had heard and seen,  as it was told unto them. Luke 2:21
21 And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his
name was called JESUS, which was so named  of the angel before he was conceived
in the womb.
Luke 2:22
22 And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were
accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem,  to present him to the Lord; Luke
2:23
23 (As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb
shall be called holy to the Lord;) Luke 2:24
24 And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the
Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young  pigeons. Luke 2:25
25 And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the
same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the
Holy Ghost was upon him.
Luke 2:26
26 And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see
death, before he had seen  the Lord's Christ. Luke 2:27
27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in
the child Jesus, to do  for him after the custom of the law, Luke 2:28
28 Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said, Luke 2:29
29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:
Luke 2:30
30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, Luke 2:31
31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people; Luke 2:32
32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel. Luke
2:33
33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of
him.
Luke 2:34
34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child
is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which
shall be spoken against;
Luke 2:35
35 (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that the thoughts of
many hearts may be revealed.
Luke 2:36
36 And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe
of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived  with an husband seven years
from her virginity;
Luke 2:37
37 And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not
from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day. Luke
2:38
38 And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake
of him to all them that looked  for redemption in Jerusalem. Luke 2:39
39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord,
they returned into Galilee, to their own city  Nazareth. Luke 2:40
40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the
grace of God was upon  him.
Luke 2:41
41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover.
Luke 2:42
42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom
of the feast.
Luke 2:43
43 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus
tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph  and his mother knew not of it. Luke
2:44
44 But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day's journey;
and they sought him among  their kinsfolk and acquaintance. Luke 2:45
45 And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking
him.
Luke 2:46
46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple,
sitting in the midst of the doctors,  both hearing them, and asking them
questions.
Luke 2:47
47 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.
Luke 2:48
48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son,
why hast thou  thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee
sorrowing.
Luke 2:49
49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must
be about my Father's business? Luke 2:50
50 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them. Luke 2:51
51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them:
but  his mother kept all these sayings in her heart. Luke 2:52
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.
CHAPTER 3
Luke 3:1
1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate
being governor of Judaea, and Herod  being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother
Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the
tetrarch of Abilene,
Luke 3:2
2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the
son of Zacharias in  the wilderness. Luke 3:3
3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of
repentance for the remission of sins; Luke 3:4
4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The
voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye  the way of the Lord, make
his paths straight.
Luke 3:5
5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought
low; and the crooked shall be made  straight, and the rough ways shall be made
smooth;
Luke 3:6
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God. Luke 3:7
7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O
generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee  from the wrath to come? Luke
3:8
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say
within yourselves, We have Abraham  to our father: for I say unto you, That God
is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. Luke 3:9
9 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore
which bringeth not  forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Luke 3:10
10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then? Luke 3:11
11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to
him that hath none; and he that hath meat,  let him do likewise. Luke 3:12
12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what
shall we do?
Luke 3:13
13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you. Luke
3:14
14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And
he said unto  them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be
content with your wages.
Luke 3:15
15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of
John, whether he  were the Christ, or not; Luke 3:16
16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but
one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to
unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire: Luke 3:17
17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will
gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire
unquenchable.
Luke 3:18
18 And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people. Luke
3:19
19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother
Philip's wife, and  for all the evils which Herod had done, Luke 3:20
20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison. Luke 3:21
21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also
being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened, Luke 3:22
22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a
voice came  from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well
pleased.
Luke 3:23
23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was
supposed) the son of Joseph,  which was the son of Heli, Luke 3:24
24 Which was the son of Matthat, which was the son of Levi, which was the son
