How much time and effort did you put into this? You don't get any brain exercise (the purpose of the problem) by having us solve it for you.
Here's what jumped out at me first when I glanced at the numbers:
14*3 = 42
41*3 = 123
Start from that and fill in the rest of the pattern; then use the pattern to find the next number.
