Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:2 - He answered them,[fn] “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:3 - And in the morning, ‘It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.' You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:6 - Jesus said to them, “Watch and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:7 - And they began discussing it among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:8 - But Jesus, aware of this, said, “O you of little faith, why are you discussing among yourselves the fact that you have no bread?
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:11 - How is it that you fail to understand that I did not speak about bread? Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:13 - Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:14 - And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:15 - He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:16 - Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:17 - And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:23 - But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance[fn] to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 16:26 - For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 17:2 - And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light.

Unchecked Copy BoxMat 17:11 - He answered, “Elijah does come, and he will restore all things.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 17:12 - But I tell you that Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they pleased. So also the Son of Man will certainly suffer at their hands.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 17:17 - And Jesus answered, “O faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him here to me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 17:20 - He said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,' and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 17:22 - As they were gathering[fn] in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 17:24 - When they came to Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drachma tax went up to Peter and said, “Does your teacher not pay the tax?”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 17:27 - However, not to give offense to them, go to the sea and cast a hook and take the first fish that comes up, and when you open its mouth you will find a shekel.[fn] Take that and give it to them for me and for yourself.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 18:8 - And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the eternal fire.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 18:15 - “If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 18:16 - But if he does not listen, take one or two others along with you, that every charge may be established by the evidence of two or three witnesses.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 18:17 - If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 18:24 - When he began to settle, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 18:25 - And since he could not pay, his master ordered him to be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 18:27 - And out of pity for him, the master of that servant released him and forgave him the debt.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 18:28 - But when that same servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii,[fn] and seizing him, he began to choke him, saying, ‘Pay what you owe.'

Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:4 - He answered, “Have you not read that he who created them from the beginning made them male and female,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:8 - He said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:9 - And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:11 - But he said to them, “Not everyone can receive this saying, but only those to whom it is given.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:13 - Then children were brought to him that he might lay his hands on them and pray. The disciples rebuked the people,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:14 - but Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:17 - And he said to him, “Why do you ask me about what is good? There is only one who is good. If you would enter life, keep the commandments.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:18 - He said to him, “Which ones?” And Jesus said, “You shall not murder, You shall not commit adultery, You shall not steal, You shall not bear false witness,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:22 - When the young man heard this he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:23 - And Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly, I say to you, only with difficulty will a rich person enter the kingdom of heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:24 - Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:25 - When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:26 - But Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:28 - Jesus said to them, “Truly, I say to you, in the new world,[fn] when the Son of Man will sit on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 19:30 - But many who are first will be last, and the last first.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:2 - After agreeing with the laborers for a denarius[fn] a day, he sent them into his vineyard.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:4 - and to them he said, ‘You go into the vineyard too, and whatever is right I will give you.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:5 - So they went. Going out again about the sixth hour and the ninth hour, he did the same.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:6 - And about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing. And he said to them, ‘Why do you stand here idle all day?'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:8 - And when evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last, up to the first.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:11 - And on receiving it they grumbled at the master of the house,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:13 - But he replied to one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius?
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:14 - Take what belongs to you and go. I choose to give to this last worker as I give to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:21 - And he said to her, “What do you want?” She said to him, “Say that these two sons of mine are to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:22 - Jesus answered, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am to drink?” They said to him, “We are able.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:23 - He said to them, “You will drink my cup, but to sit at my right hand and at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:25 - But Jesus called them to him and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:31 - The crowd rebuked them, telling them to be silent, but they cried out all the more, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 20:34 - And Jesus in pity touched their eyes, and immediately they recovered their sight and followed him.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:3 - If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord needs them,' and he will send them at once.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:4 - This took place to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet, saying,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:6 - The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:8 - Most of the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:9 - And the crowds that went before him and that followed him were shouting, “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:11 - And the crowds said, “This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:13 - He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,' but you make it a den of robbers.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:15 - But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that he did, and the children crying out in the temple, “Hosanna to the Son of David!” they were indignant,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:16 - and they said to him, “Do you hear what these are saying?” And Jesus said to them, “Yes; have you never read,
“‘Out of the mouth of infants and nursing babies
you have prepared praise'?”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:18 - In the morning, as he was returning to the city, he became hungry.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:21 - And Jesus answered them, “Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,' it will happen.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:24 - Jesus answered them, “I also will ask you one question, and if you tell me the answer, then I also will tell you by what authority I do these things.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:25 - The baptism of John, from where did it come? From heaven or from man?” And they discussed it among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,' he will say to us, ‘Why then did you not believe him?'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:26 - But if we say, ‘From man,' we are afraid of the crowd, for they all hold that John was a prophet.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:28 - “What do you think? A man had two sons. And he went to the first and said, ‘Son, go and work in the vineyard today.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:29 - And he answered, ‘I will not,' but afterward he changed his mind and went.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:30 - And he went to the other son and said the same. And he answered, ‘I go, sir,' but did not go.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:32 - For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. And even when you saw it, you did not afterward change your minds and believe him.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:34 - When the season for fruit drew near, he sent his servants[fn] to the tenants to get his fruit.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:35 - And the tenants took his servants and beat one, killed another, and stoned another.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:37 - Finally he sent his son to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 21:38 - But when the tenants saw the son, they said to themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and have his inheritance.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:5 - But they paid no attention and went off, one to his farm, another to his business,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:6 - while the rest seized his servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:7 - The king was angry, and he sent his troops and destroyed those murderers and burned their city.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:8 - Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding feast is ready, but those invited were not worthy.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:11 - “But when the king came in to look at the guests, he saw there a man who had no wedding garment.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:12 - And he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding garment?' And he was speechless.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:14 - For many are called, but few are chosen.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:18 - But Jesus, aware of their malice, said, “Why put me to the test, you hypocrites?
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:19 - Show me the coin for the tax.” And they brought him a denarius.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:25 - Now there were seven brothers among us. The first married and died, and having no offspring left his wife to his brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:27 - After them all, the woman died.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:29 - But Jesus answered them, “You are wrong, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:31 - And as for the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was said to you by God:
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:34 - But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:37 - And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:39 - And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 22:41 - Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:3 - so do and observe whatever they tell you, but not the works they do. For they preach, but do not practice.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:4 - They tie up heavy burdens, hard to bear,[fn] and lay them on people's shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to move them with their finger.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:5 - They do all their deeds to be seen by others. For they make their phylacteries broad and their fringes long,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:6 - and they love the place of honor at feasts and the best seats in the synagogues
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:8 - But you are not to be called rabbi, for you have one teacher, and you are all brothers.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:11 - The greatest among you shall be your servant.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:12 - Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:13 - “But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut the kingdom of heaven in people's faces. For you neither enter yourselves nor allow those who would enter to go in.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:23 - “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faithfulness. These you ought to have done, without neglecting the others.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:24 - You blind guides, straining out a gnat and swallowing a camel!
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:25 - “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup and the plate, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 23:27 - “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which outwardly appear beautiful, but within are full of dead people's bones and all uncleanness.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:2 - But he answered them, “You see all these, do you not? Truly, I say to you, there will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:3 - As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:6 - And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:8 - All these are but the beginning of the birth pains.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:13 - But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:19 - And alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days!
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:20 - Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:22 - And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:29 - “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:32 - “From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:35 - Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:36 - “But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son,[fn] but the Father only.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:43 - But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:48 - But if that wicked servant says to himself, ‘My master is delayed,'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 24:49 - and begins to beat his fellow servants[fn] and eats and drinks with drunkards,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:2 - Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:4 - but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:5 - As the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:6 - But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:8 - And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:9 - But the wise answered, saying, ‘Since there will not be enough for us and for you, go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:10 - And while they were going to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:11 - Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:12 - But he answered, ‘Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:15 - To one he gave five talents,[fn] to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability. Then he went away.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:18 - But he who had received the one talent went and dug in the ground and hid his master's money.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:19 - Now after a long time the master of those servants came and settled accounts with them.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:22 - And he also who had the two talents came forward, saying, ‘Master, you delivered to me two talents; here, I have made two talents more.'
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:24 - He also who had received the one talent came forward, saying, ‘Master, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you scattered no seed,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:26 - But his master answered him, ‘You wicked and slothful servant! You knew that I reap where I have not sown and gather where I scattered no seed?
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:29 - For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:31 - “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:33 - And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 25:46 - And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:6 - Now when Jesus was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper,[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:8 - And when the disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, “Why this waste?
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:10 - But Jesus, aware of this, said to them, “Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a beautiful thing to me.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:11 - For you always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:15 - and said, “What will you give me if I deliver him over to you?” And they paid him thirty pieces of silver.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:17 - Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Where will you have us prepare for you to eat the Passover?”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:18 - He said, “Go into the city to a certain man and say to him, ‘The Teacher says, My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:20 - When it was evening, he reclined at table with the twelve.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:23 - He answered, “He who has dipped his hand in the dish with me will betray me.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:24 - The Son of Man goes as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had not been born.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:25 - Judas, who would betray him, answered, “Is it I, Rabbi?” He said to him, “You have said so.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:26 - Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:29 - I tell you I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:32 - But after I am raised up, I will go before you to Galilee.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:33 - Peter answered him, “Though they all fall away because of you, I will never fall away.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:41 - Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:48 - Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I will kiss is the man; seize him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:50 - Jesus said to him, “Friend, do what you came to do.”[fn] Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and seized him.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:56 - But all this has taken place that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples left him and fled.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:57 - Then those who had seized Jesus led him to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had gathered.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:58 - And Peter was following him at a distance, as far as the courtyard of the high priest, and going inside he sat with the guards to see the end.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:59 - Now the chief priests and the whole council[fn] were seeking false testimony against Jesus that they might put him to death,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:60 - but they found none, though many false witnesses came forward. At last two came forward
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:63 - But Jesus remained silent. And the high priest said to him, “I adjure you by the living God, tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:66 - What is your judgment?” They answered, “He deserves death.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:67 - Then they spit in his face and struck him. And some slapped him,
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:69 - Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. And a servant girl came up to him and said, “You also were with Jesus the Galilean.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:70 - But he denied it before them all, saying, “I do not know what you mean.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:71 - And when he went out to the entrance, another servant girl saw him, and she said to the bystanders, “This man was with Jesus of Nazareth.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 26:73 - After a little while the bystanders came up and said to Peter, “Certainly you too are one of them, for your accent betrays you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:1 - When morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:4 - saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood.” They said, “What is that to us? See to it yourself.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:6 - But the chief priests, taking the pieces of silver, said, “It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, since it is blood money.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:7 - So they took counsel and bought with them the potter's field as a burial place for strangers.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:11 - Now Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” Jesus said, “You have said so.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:15 - Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release for the crowd any one prisoner whom they wanted.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:16 - And they had then a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:19 - Besides, while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent word to him, “Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered much because of him today in a dream.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:20 - Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:21 - The governor again said to them, “Which of the two do you want me to release for you?” And they said, “Barabbas.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:23 - And he said, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they shouted all the more, “Let him be crucified!”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:24 - So when Pilate saw that he was gaining nothing, but rather that a riot was beginning, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of this man's blood;[fn] see to it yourselves.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:26 - Then he released for them Barabbas, and having scourged[fn] Jesus, delivered him to be crucified.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:32 - As they went out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. They compelled this man to carry his cross.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:35 - And when they had crucified him, they divided his garments among them by casting lots.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:39 - And those who passed by derided him, wagging their heads
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:45 - Now from the sixth hour[fn] there was darkness over all the land[fn] until the ninth hour.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:46 - And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” that is, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:47 - And some of the bystanders, hearing it, said, “This man is calling Elijah.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:49 - But the others said, “Wait, let us see whether Elijah will come to save him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:50 - And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit.
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:54 - When the centurion and those who were with him, keeping watch over Jesus, saw the earthquake and what took place, they were filled with awe and said, “Truly this was the Son[fn] of God!”
Unchecked Copy BoxMat 27:55 - There were also many women there, looking on from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him,

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 8:40 - Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 8:45 - And Jesus said, “Who was it that touched me?” When all denied it, Peter[fn] said, “Master, the crowds surround you and are pressing in on you!”

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 8:47 - And when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared in the presence of all the people why she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:6 - And they departed and went through the villages, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:7 - Now Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was happening, and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had been raised from the dead,

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:9 - Herod said, “John I beheaded, but who is this about whom I hear such things?” And he sought to see him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:11 - When the crowds learned it, they followed him, and he welcomed them and spoke to them of the kingdom of God and cured those who had need of healing.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:12 - Now the day began to wear away, and the twelve came and said to him, “Send the crowd away to go into the surrounding villages and countryside to find lodging and get provisions, for we are here in a desolate place.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:13 - But he said to them, “You give them something to eat.” They said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fish—unless we are to go and buy food for all these people.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:14 - For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, “Have them sit down in groups of about fifty each.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:16 - And taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven and said a blessing over them. Then he broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:19 - And they answered, “John the Baptist. But others say, Elijah, and others, that one of the prophets of old has risen.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:20 - Then he said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” And Peter answered, “The Christ of God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:21 - And he strictly charged and commanded them to tell this to no one,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:23 - And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:25 - For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:27 - But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:28 - Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:32 - Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they became fully awake they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:34 - As he was saying these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:37 - On the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great crowd met him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:41 - Jesus answered, “O faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:42 - While he was coming, the demon threw him to the ground and convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:43 - And all were astonished at the majesty of God. But while they were all marveling at everything he was doing, Jesus[fn] said to his disciples,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:45 - But they did not understand this saying, and it was concealed from them, so that they might not perceive it. And they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:46 - An argument arose among them as to which of them was the greatest.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:47 - But Jesus, knowing the reasoning of their hearts, took a child and put him by his side
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:49 - John answered, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we tried to stop him, because he does not follow with us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:50 - But Jesus said to him, “Do not stop him, for the one who is not against you is for you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:51 - When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:54 - And when his disciples James and John saw it, they said, “Lord, do you want us to tell fire to come down from heaven and consume them?”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:55 - But he turned and rebuked them.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:58 - And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:59 - To another he said, “Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:60 - And Jesus[fn] said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead. But as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:61 - Yet another said, “I will follow you, Lord, but let me first say farewell to those at my home.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 9:62 - Jesus said to him, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:1 - After this the Lord appointed seventy-two[fn] others and sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to go.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:2 - And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:6 - And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, it will return to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:7 - And remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for the laborer deserves his wages. Do not go from house to house.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:16 - “The one who hears you hears me, and the one who rejects you rejects me, and the one who rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:17 - The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:18 - And he said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:20 - Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:26 - He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:27 - And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:28 - And he said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:29 - But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:31 - Now by chance a priest was going down that road, and when he saw him he passed by on the other side.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:32 - So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:34 - He went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he set him on his own animal and brought him to an inn and took care of him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:37 - He said, “The one who showed him mercy.” And Jesus said to him, “You go, and do likewise.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:38 - Now as they went on their way, Jesus[fn] entered a village. And a woman named Martha welcomed him into her house.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:40 - But Martha was distracted with much serving. And she went up to him and said, “Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 10:41 - But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:2 - And he said to them, “When you pray, say:
“Father, hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:11 - What father among you, if his son asks for[fn] a fish, will instead of a fish give him a serpent;

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:15 - But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of demons,”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:16 - while others, to test him, kept seeking from him a sign from heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:17 - But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and a divided household falls.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:18 - And if Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Beelzebul.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:19 - And if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:20 - But if it is by the finger of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:22 - but when one stronger than he attacks him and overcomes him, he takes away his armor in which he trusted and divides his spoil.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:27 - As he said these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts at which you nursed!”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:28 - But he said, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:29 - When the crowds were increasing, he began to say, “This generation is an evil generation. It seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:38 - The Pharisee was astonished to see that he did not first wash before dinner.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:39 - And the Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:42 - “But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and neglect justice and the love of God. These you ought to have done, without neglecting the others.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:46 - And he said, “Woe to you lawyers also! For you load people with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:47 - Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets whom your fathers killed.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 11:48 - So you are witnesses and you consent to the deeds of your fathers, for they killed them, and you build their tombs.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:2 - Nothing is covered up that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:4 - “I tell you, my friends, do not fear those who kill the body, and after that have nothing more that they can do.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:8 - “And I tell you, everyone who acknowledges me before men, the Son of Man also will acknowledge before the angels of God,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:9 - but the one who denies me before men will be denied before the angels of God.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:22 - And he said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat, nor about your body, what you will put on.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:25 - And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:27 - Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin,[fn] yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:45 - But if that servant says to himself, ‘My master is delayed in coming,' and begins to beat the male and female servants, and to eat and drink and get drunk,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:47 - And that servant who knew his master's will but did not get ready or act according to his will, will receive a severe beating.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:48 - But the one who did not know, and did what deserved a beating, will receive a light beating. Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required, and from him to whom they entrusted much, they will demand the more.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:50 - I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how great is my distress until it is accomplished!
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 12:54 - He also said to the crowds, “When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once, ‘A shower is coming.' And so it happens.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 21:8 - And he said, “See that you are not led astray. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he!' and, ‘The time is at hand!' Do not go after them.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:24 - A dispute also arose among them, as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:25 - And he said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:26 - But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:27 - For who is the greater, one who reclines at table or one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at table? But I am among you as the one who serves.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:32 - but I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:33 - Peter[fn] said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:34 - Jesus[fn] said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow this day, until you deny three times that you know me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:35 - And he said to them, “When I sent you out with no moneybag or knapsack or sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:36 - He said to them, “But now let the one who has a moneybag take it, and likewise a knapsack. And let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:38 - And they said, “Look, Lord, here are two swords.” And he said to them, “It is enough.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:39 - And he came out and went, as was his custom, to the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:40 - And when he came to the place, he said to them, “Pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:43 - And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:48 - but Jesus said to him, “Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:49 - And when those who were around him saw what would follow, they said, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:51 - But Jesus said, “No more of this!” And he touched his ear and healed him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:52 - Then Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders, who had come out against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:55 - And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:56 - Then a servant girl, seeing him as he sat in the light and looking closely at him, said, “This man also was with him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:57 - But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:58 - And a little later someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:60 - But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.” And immediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:67 - “If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:68 - and if I ask you, you will not answer.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:69 - But from now on the Son of Man shall be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:70 - So they all said, “Are you the Son of God, then?” And he said to them, “You say that I am.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 22:71 - Then they said, “What further testimony do we need? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:2 - And they began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man misleading our nation and forbidding us to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ, a king.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:3 - And Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” And he answered him, “You have said so.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:4 - Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, “I find no guilt in this man.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:5 - But they were urgent, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, from Galilee even to this place.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:6 - When Pilate heard this, he asked whether the man was a Galilean.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:8 - When Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, for he had long desired to see him, because he had heard about him, and he was hoping to see some sign done by him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:9 - So he questioned him at some length, but he made no answer.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:10 - The chief priests and the scribes stood by, vehemently accusing him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:11 - And Herod with his soldiers treated him with contempt and mocked him. Then, arraying him in splendid clothing, he sent him back to Pilate.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:12 - And Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before this they had been at enmity with each other.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:13 - Pilate then called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:18 - But they all cried out together, “Away with this man, and release to us Barabbas”—
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:20 - Pilate addressed them once more, desiring to release Jesus,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:21 - but they kept shouting, “Crucify, crucify him!”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:22 - A third time he said to them, “Why? What evil has he done? I have found in him no guilt deserving death. I will therefore punish and release him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:23 - But they were urgent, demanding with loud cries that he should be crucified. And their voices prevailed.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:25 - He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, for whom they asked, but he delivered Jesus over to their will.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:27 - And there followed him a great multitude of the people and of women who were mourning and lamenting for him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:28 - But turning to them Jesus said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:32 - Two others, who were criminals, were led away to be put to death with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:33 - And when they came to the place that is called The Skull, there they crucified him, and the criminals, one on his right and one on his left.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:34 - And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”[fn] And they cast lots to divide his garments.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:35 - And the people stood by, watching, but the rulers scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others; let him save himself, if he is the Christ of God, his Chosen One!”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:36 - The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him sour wine
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:38 - There was also an inscription over him,[fn] “This is the King of the Jews.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:39 - One of the criminals who were hanged railed at him,[fn] saying, “Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:40 - But the other rebuked him, saying, “Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation?
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:41 - And we indeed justly, for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:45 - while the sun's light failed. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:46 - Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” And having said this he breathed his last.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:47 - Now when the centurion saw what had taken place, he praised God, saying, “Certainly this man was innocent!”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:49 - And all his acquaintances and the women who had followed him from Galilee stood at a distance watching these things.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:55 - The women who had come with him from Galilee followed and saw the tomb and how his body was laid.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 23:56 - Then they returned and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:1 - But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:3 - but when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:5 - And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:10 - Now it was Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James and the other women with them who told these things to the apostles,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:12 - But Peter rose and ran to the tomb; stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths by themselves; and he went home marveling at what had happened.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:16 - But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:17 - And he said to them, “What is this conversation that you are holding with each other as you walk?” And they stood still, looking sad.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:18 - Then one of them, named Cleopas, answered him, “Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:19 - And he said to them, “What things?” And they said to him, “Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, a man who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:21 - But we had hoped that he was the one to redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since these things happened.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:24 - Some of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but him they did not see.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:31 - And their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And he vanished from their sight.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:36 - As they were talking about these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, “Peace to you!”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:37 - But they were startled and frightened and thought they saw a spirit.
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:41 - And while they still disbelieved for joy and were marveling, he said to them, “Have you anything here to eat?”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:42 - They gave him a piece of broiled fish,[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:44 - Then he said to them, “These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:49 - And behold, I am sending the promise of my Father upon you. But stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high.”
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 24:50 - And he led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up his hands he blessed them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 1:12 - But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God,

Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 2:8 - And he said to them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the feast.” So they took it.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 2:9 - When the master of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 2:21 - But he was speaking about the temple of his body.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 2:23 - Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many believed in his name when they saw the signs that he was doing.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 2:24 - But Jesus on his part did not entrust himself to them, because he knew all people
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:1 - Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:18 - Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:21 - But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:23 - John also was baptizing at Aenon near Salim, because water was plentiful there, and people were coming and being baptized
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:29 - The one who has the bride is the bridegroom. The friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is now complete.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:30 - He must increase, but I must decrease.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 3:36 - Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:4 - And he had to pass through Samaria.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:6 - Jacob's well was there; so Jesus, wearied as he was from his journey, was sitting beside the well. It was about the sixth hour.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:32 - But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:39 - Many Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman's testimony, “He told me all that I ever did.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:43 - After the two days he departed for Galilee.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:51 - As he was going down, his servants[fn] met him and told him that his son was recovering.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 4:54 - This was now the second sign that Jesus did when he had come from Judea to Galilee.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:2 - Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, in Aramaic[fn] called Bethesda,[fn] which has five roofed colonnades.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:7 - The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up, and while I am going another steps down before me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:9 - And at once the man was healed, and he took up his bed and walked. Now that day was the Sabbath.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:11 - But he answered them, “The man who healed me, that man said to me, ‘Take up your bed, and walk.'
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:13 - Now the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, as there was a crowd in the place.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:17 - But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:29 - and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:34 - Not that the testimony that I receive is from man, but I say these things so that you may be saved.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:35 - He was a burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:36 - But the testimony that I have is greater than that of John. For the works that the Father has given me to accomplish, the very works that I am doing, bear witness about me that the Father has sent me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 5:47 - But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:2 - And a large crowd was following him, because they saw the signs that he was doing on the sick.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:3 - Jesus went up on the mountain, and there he sat down with his disciples.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:4 - Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:6 - He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:10 - Jesus said, “Have the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, about five thousand in number.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:12 - And when they had eaten their fill, he told his disciples, “Gather up the leftover fragments, that nothing may be lost.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:16 - When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:20 - But he said to them, “It is I; do not be afraid.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:51 - I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:61 - But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples were grumbling about this, said to them, “Do you take offense at this?
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 6:71 - He spoke of Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he, one of the twelve, was going to betray him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:2 - Now the Jews' Feast of Booths was at hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:6 - Jesus said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always here.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:7 - The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify about it that its works are evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:9 - After saying this, he remained in Galilee.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:10 - But after his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly but in private.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:12 - And there was much muttering about him among the people. While some said, “He is a good man,” others said, “No, he is leading the people astray.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:14 - About the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and began teaching.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:18 - The one who speaks on his own authority seeks his own glory; but the one who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and in him there is no falsehood.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:27 - But we know where this man comes from, and when the Christ appears, no one will know where he comes from.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:31 - Yet many of the people believed in him. They said, “When the Christ appears, will he do more signs than this man has done?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:37 - On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and cried out, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:39 - Now this he said about the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were to receive, for as yet the Spirit had not been given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:41 - Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “Is the Christ to come from Galilee?
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 7:44 - Some of them wanted to arrest him, but no one laid hands on him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:1 - but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:2 - Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:3 - The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placing her in the midst
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:5 - Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:6 - This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:7 - And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:9 - But when they heard it, they went away one by one, beginning with the older ones, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:10 - Jesus stood up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:11 - She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more.”]]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:14 - Jesus answered, “Even if I do bear witness about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going, but you do not know where I come from or where I am going.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:16 - Yet even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for it is not I alone who judge, but I and the Father[fn] who sent me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:17 - In your Law it is written that the testimony of two people is true.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:35 - The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:40 - but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:45 - But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:50 - Yet I do not seek my own glory; there is One who seeks it, and he is the judge.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:55 - But you have not known him. I know him. If I were to say that I do not know him, I would be a liar like you, but I do know him and I keep his word.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 8:59 - So they picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid himself and went out of the temple.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:14 - Now it was a Sabbath day when Jesus made the mud and opened his eyes.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:15 - So the Pharisees again asked him how he had received his sight. And he said to them, “He put mud on my eyes, and I washed, and I see.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:16 - Some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath.” But others said, “How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?” And there was a division among them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:17 - So they said again to the blind man, “What do you say about him, since he has opened your eyes?” He said, “He is a prophet.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:21 - But how he now sees we do not know, nor do we know who opened his eyes. Ask him; he is of age. He will speak for himself.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:28 - And they reviled him, saying, “You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:29 - We know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, we do not know where he comes from.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:38 - He said, “Lord, I believe,” and he worshiped him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 9:41 - Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no guilt;[fn] but now that you say, ‘We see,' your guilt remains.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 10:2 - But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 10:5 - A stranger they will not follow, but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 10:6 - This figure of speech Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 10:20 - Many of them said, “He has a demon, and is insane; why listen to him?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 10:38 - but if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 10:41 - And many came to him. And they said, “John did no sign, but everything that John said about this man was true.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:2 - It was Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:4 - But when Jesus heard it he said, “This illness does not lead to death. It is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:5 - Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:13 - Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he meant taking rest in sleep.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:18 - Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles[fn] off,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:19 - and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:20 - So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary remained seated in the house.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:29 - And when she heard it, she rose quickly and went to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:30 - Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha had met him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:37 - But some of them said, “Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man also have kept this man from dying?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:38 - Then Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:41 - So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:42 - I knew that you always hear me, but I said this on account of the people standing around, that they may believe that you sent me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:46 - but some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:51 - He did not say this of his own accord, but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:55 - Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover to purify themselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 11:57 - Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where he was, he should let them know, so that they might arrest him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:2 - So they gave a dinner for him there. Martha served, and Lazarus was one of those reclining with him at table.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:3 - Mary therefore took a pound[fn] of expensive ointment made from pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:4 - But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (he who was about to betray him), said,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:6 - He said this, not because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief, and having charge of the moneybag he used to help himself to what was put into it.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:8 - For the poor you always have with you, but you do not always have me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:10 - So the chief priests made plans to put Lazarus to death as well,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:14 - And Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:20 - Now among those who went up to worship at the feast were some Greeks.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:23 - And Jesus answered them, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:24 - Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:33 - He said this to show by what kind of death he was going to die.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:37 - Though he had done so many signs before them, they still did not believe in him,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 12:44 - And Jesus cried out and said, “Whoever believes in me, believes not in me but in him who sent me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 13:1 - Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 13:7 - Jesus answered him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 13:20 - Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever receives the one I send receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 13:28 - Now no one at the table knew why he said this to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 13:30 - So, after receiving the morsel of bread, he immediately went out. And it was night.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 13:36 - Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus answered him, “Where I am going you cannot follow me now, but you will follow afterward.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 14:2 - In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 14:10 - Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 14:11 - Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 14:19 - Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 14:21 - Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 14:26 - But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 15:15 - No longer do I call you servants,[fn] for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 15:19 - If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 15:22 - If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have been guilty of sin,[fn] but now they have no excuse for their sin.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 15:24 - If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin, but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 15:27 - And you also will bear witness, because you have been with me from the beginning.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 16:4 - But I have said these things to you, that when their hour comes you may remember that I told them to you. “I did not say these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 16:5 - But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?'
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 16:7 - Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 16:11 - concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 16:13 - When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 16:20 - Truly, truly, I say to you, you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 16:21 - When a woman is giving birth, she has sorrow because her hour has come, but when she has delivered the baby, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 16:22 - So also you have sorrow now, but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 17:13 - But now I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 17:20 - “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:2 - Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place, for Jesus often met there with his disciples.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:5 - They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I am he.”[fn] Judas, who betrayed him, was standing with them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:7 - So he asked them again, “Whom do you seek?” And they said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:10 - Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's servant[fn] and cut off his right ear. (The servant's name was Malchus.)
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:14 - It was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it would be expedient that one man should die for the people.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:15 - Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. Since that disciple was known to the high priest, he entered with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:16 - but Peter stood outside at the door. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the servant girl who kept watch at the door, and brought Peter in.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:18 - Now the servants[fn] and officers had made a charcoal fire, because it was cold, and they were standing and warming themselves. Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:22 - When he had said these things, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, “Is that how you answer the high priest?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:23 - Jesus answered him, “If what I said is wrong, bear witness about the wrong; but if what I said is right, why do you strike me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:25 - Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. So they said to him, “You also are not one of his disciples, are you?” He denied it and said, “I am not.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:28 - Then they led Jesus from the house of Caiaphas to the governor's headquarters.[fn] It was early morning. They themselves did not enter the governor's headquarters, so that they would not be defiled, but could eat the Passover.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:36 - Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:39 - But you have a custom that I should release one man for you at the Passover. So do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 18:40 - They cried out again, “Not this man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:9 - He entered his headquarters again and said to Jesus, “Where are you from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:12 - From then on Pilate sought to release him, but the Jews cried out, “If you release this man, you are not Caesar's friend. Everyone who makes himself a king opposes Caesar.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:13 - So when Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called The Stone Pavement, and in Aramaic[fn] Gabbatha.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:14 - Now it was the day of Preparation of the Passover. It was about the sixth hour.[fn] He said to the Jews, “Behold your King!”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:18 - There they crucified him, and with him two others, one on either side, and Jesus between them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:19 - Pilate also wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It read, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:23 - When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his garments and divided them into four parts, one part for each soldier; also his tunic.[fn] But the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom,
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:25 - but standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:33 - But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:38 - After these things Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took away his body.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:39 - Nicodemus also, who earlier had come to Jesus[fn] by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds[fn] in weight.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 19:41 - Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:1 - Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:4 - Both of them were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:11 - But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:17 - Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:24 - Now Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin,[fn] was not with them when Jesus came.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:25 - So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and place my finger into the mark of the nails, and place my hand into his side, I will never believe.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 20:31 - but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:1 - After this Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and he revealed himself in this way.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:4 - Just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:6 - He said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, because of the quantity of fish.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:8 - The other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land, but about a hundred yards[fn] off.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:12 - Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” Now none of the disciples dared ask him, “Who are you?” They knew it was the Lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:18 - Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you used to dress yourself and walk wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:19 - (This he said to show by what kind of death he was to glorify God.) And after saying this he said to him, “Follow me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:21 - When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, “Lord, what about this man?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:23 - So the saying spread abroad among the brothers[fn] that this disciple was not to die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he was not to die, but, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJhn 21:25 - Now there are also many other things that Jesus did. Were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 1:5 - for John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with[fn] the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 1:7 - He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by his own authority.

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 2:12 - And all were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 2:13 - But others mocking said, “They are filled with new wine.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 2:14 - But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and addressed them: “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 2:26 - therefore my heart was glad, and my tongue rejoiced;
my flesh also will dwell in hope.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 2:34 - For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says,
“‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at my right hand,

Unchecked Copy BoxAct 2:42 - And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 2:43 - And awe[fn] came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 2:44 - And all who believed were together and had all things in common.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 2:47 - praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:1 - Now Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:4 - And Peter directed his gaze at him, as did John, and said, “Look at us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:5 - And he fixed his attention on them, expecting to receive something from them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:6 - But Peter said, “I have no silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:7 - And he took him by the right hand and raised him up, and immediately his feet and ankles were made strong.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:10 - and recognized him as the one who sat at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, asking for alms. And they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:11 - While he clung to Peter and John, all the people, utterly astounded, ran together to them in the portico called Solomon's.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:12 - And when Peter saw it he addressed the people: “Men of Israel, why do you wonder at this, or why do you stare at us, as though by our own power or piety we have made him walk?
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:14 - But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted to you,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:15 - and you killed the Author of life, whom God raised from the dead. To this we are witnesses.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:18 - But what God foretold by the mouth of all the prophets, that his Christ would suffer, he thus fulfilled.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:23 - And it shall be that every soul who does not listen to that prophet shall be destroyed from the people.'
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 3:24 - And all the prophets who have spoken, from Samuel and those who came after him, also proclaimed these days.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:1 - And as they were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:4 - But many of those who had heard the word believed, and the number of the men came to about five thousand.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:5 - On the next day their rulers and elders and scribes gathered together in Jerusalem,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:13 - Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated, common men, they were astonished. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:15 - But when they had commanded them to leave the council, they conferred with one another,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:19 - But Peter and John answered them, “Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, you must judge,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:21 - And when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way to punish them, because of the people, for all were praising God for what had happened.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:23 - When they were released, they went to their friends and reported what the chief priests and the elders had said to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:24 - And when they heard it, they lifted their voices together to God and said, “Sovereign Lord, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and everything in them,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:32 - Now the full number of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one said that any of the things that belonged to him was his own, but they had everything in common.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:35 - and laid it at the apostles' feet, and it was distributed to each as any had need.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 4:36 - Thus Joseph, who was also called by the apostles Barnabas (which means son of encouragement), a Levite, a native of Cyprus,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:3 - But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land?
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:5 - When Ananias heard these words, he fell down and breathed his last. And great fear came upon all who heard of it.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:6 - The young men rose and wrapped him up and carried him out and buried him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:7 - After an interval of about three hours his wife came in, not knowing what had happened.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:8 - And Peter said to her, “Tell me whether you[fn] sold the land for so much.” And she said, “Yes, for so much.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:9 - But Peter said to her, “How is it that you have agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:10 - Immediately she fell down at his feet and breathed her last. When the young men came in they found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:12 - Now many signs and wonders were regularly done among the people by the hands of the apostles. And they were all together in Solomon's Portico.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:13 - None of the rest dared join them, but the people held them in high esteem.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:14 - And more than ever believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:16 - The people also gathered from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing the sick and those afflicted with unclean spirits, and they were all healed.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:17 - But the high priest rose up, and all who were with him (that is, the party of the Sadducees), and filled with jealousy
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:19 - But during the night an angel of the Lord opened the prison doors and brought them out, and said,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:21 - And when they heard this, they entered the temple at daybreak and began to teach. Now when the high priest came, and those who were with him, they called together the council, all the senate of the people of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:22 - But when the officers came, they did not find them in the prison, so they returned and reported,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:23 - “We found the prison securely locked and the guards standing at the doors, but when we opened them we found no one inside.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:24 - Now when the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these words, they were greatly perplexed about them, wondering what this would come to.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:27 - And when they had brought them, they set them before the council. And the high priest questioned them,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:29 - But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:33 - When they heard this, they were enraged and wanted to kill them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:39 - but if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them. You might even be found opposing God!” So they took his advice,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 5:40 - and when they had called in the apostles, they beat them and charged them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 6:1 - Now in these days when the disciples were increasing in number, a complaint by the Hellenists[fn] arose against the Hebrews because their widows were being neglected in the daily distribution.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 6:2 - And the twelve summoned the full number of the disciples and said, “It is not right that we should give up preaching the word of God to serve tables.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 6:4 - But we will devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 6:8 - And Stephen, full of grace and power, was doing great wonders and signs among the people.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:1 - And the high priest said, “Are these things so?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:2 - And Stephen said: “Brothers and fathers, hear me. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:6 - And God spoke to this effect—that his offspring would be sojourners in a land belonging to others, who would enslave them and afflict them four hundred years.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:11 - Now there came a famine throughout all Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction, and our fathers could find no food.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:12 - But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers on their first visit.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:14 - And Joseph sent and summoned Jacob his father and all his kindred, seventy-five persons in all.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:17 - “But as the time of the promise drew near, which God had granted to Abraham, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:21 - and when he was exposed, Pharaoh's daughter adopted him and brought him up as her own son.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:22 - And Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and he was mighty in his words and deeds.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:23 - “When he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the children of Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:25 - He supposed that his brothers would understand that God was giving them salvation by his hand, but they did not understand.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:27 - But the man who was wronging his neighbor thrust him aside, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:29 - At this retort Moses fled and became an exile in the land of Midian, where he became the father of two sons.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:31 - When Moses saw it, he was amazed at the sight, and as he drew near to look, there came the voice of the Lord:
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:32 - ‘I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob.' And Moses trembled and did not dare to look.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:33 - Then the Lord said to him, ‘Take off the sandals from your feet, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:42 - But God turned away and gave them over to worship the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets:
“‘Did you bring to me slain beasts and sacrifices,
during the forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:47 - But it was Solomon who built a house for him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:49 - “‘Heaven is my throne,
and the earth is my footstool.
What kind of house will you build for me, says the Lord,
or what is the place of my rest?
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:54 - Now when they heard these things they were enraged, and they ground their teeth at him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:55 - But he, full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:57 - But they cried out with a loud voice and stopped their ears and rushed together[fn] at him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 7:60 - And falling to his knees he cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:1 - And Saul approved of his execution. And there arose on that day a great persecution against the church in Jerusalem, and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:2 - Devout men buried Stephen and made great lamentation over him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:3 - But Saul was ravaging the church, and entering house after house, he dragged off men and women and committed them to prison.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:5 - Philip went down to the city[fn] of Samaria and proclaimed to them the Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:6 - And the crowds with one accord paid attention to what was being said by Philip, when they heard him and saw the signs that he did.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:7 - For unclean spirits, crying out with a loud voice, came out of many who had them, and many who were paralyzed or lame were healed.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:8 - So there was much joy in that city.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:11 - And they paid attention to him because for a long time he had amazed them with his magic.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:12 - But when they believed Philip as he preached good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:13 - Even Simon himself believed, and after being baptized he continued with Philip. And seeing signs and great miracles[fn] performed, he was amazed.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:14 - Now when the apostles at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent to them Peter and John,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:16 - for he had not yet fallen on any of them, but they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:18 - Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:20 - But Peter said to him, “May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money!
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:24 - And Simon answered, “Pray for me to the Lord, that nothing of what you have said may come upon me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:26 - Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Rise and go toward the south[fn] to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” This is a desert place.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:29 - And the Spirit said to Philip, “Go over and join this chariot.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:30 - So Philip ran to him and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet and asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:31 - And he said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:32 - Now the passage of the Scripture that he was reading was this:
“Like a sheep he was led to the slaughter
and like a lamb before its shearer is silent,
so he opens not his mouth.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:34 - And the eunuch said to Philip, “About whom, I ask you, does the prophet say this, about himself or about someone else?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:35 - Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this Scripture he told him the good news about Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:36 - And as they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:39 - And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, and went on his way rejoicing.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 8:40 - But Philip found himself at Azotus, and as he passed through he preached the gospel to all the towns until he came to Caesarea.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:1 - But Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:3 - Now as he went on his way, he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven shone around him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:7 - The men who were traveling with him stood speechless, hearing the voice but seeing no one.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:8 - Saul rose from the ground, and although his eyes were opened, he saw nothing. So they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:10 - Now there was a disciple at Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias.” And he said, “Here I am, Lord.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:11 - And the Lord said to him, “Rise and go to the street called Straight, and at the house of Judas look for a man of Tarsus named Saul, for behold, he is praying,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:13 - But Ananias answered, “Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he has done to your saints at Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:15 - But the Lord said to him, “Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the children of Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:17 - So Ananias departed and entered the house. And laying his hands on him he said, “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus who appeared to you on the road by which you came has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:19 - and taking food, he was strengthened. For some days he was with the disciples at Damascus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:21 - And all who heard him were amazed and said, “Is not this the man who made havoc in Jerusalem of those who called upon this name? And has he not come here for this purpose, to bring them bound before the chief priests?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:22 - But Saul increased all the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived in Damascus by proving that Jesus was the Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:23 - When many days had passed, the Jews[fn] plotted to kill him,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:24 - but their plot became known to Saul. They were watching the gates day and night in order to kill him,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:25 - but his disciples took him by night and let him down through an opening in the wall,[fn] lowering him in a basket.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:26 - And when he had come to Jerusalem, he attempted to join the disciples. And they were all afraid of him, for they did not believe that he was a disciple.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:27 - But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles and declared to them how on the road he had seen the Lord, who spoke to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:29 - And he spoke and disputed against the Hellenists.[fn] But they were seeking to kill him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:30 - And when the brothers learned this, they brought him down to Caesarea and sent him off to Tarsus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:32 - Now as Peter went here and there among them all, he came down also to the saints who lived at Lydda.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:33 - There he found a man named Aeneas, bedridden for eight years, who was paralyzed.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:37 - In those days she became ill and died, and when they had washed her, they laid her in an upper room.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:38 - Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him, urging him, “Please come to us without delay.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:39 - So Peter rose and went with them. And when he arrived, they took him to the upper room. All the widows stood beside him weeping and showing tunics[fn] and other garments that Dorcas made while she was with them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:40 - But Peter put them all outside, and knelt down and prayed; and turning to the body he said, “Tabitha, arise.” And she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter she sat up.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:41 - And he gave her his hand and raised her up. Then, calling the saints and widows, he presented her alive.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:42 - And it became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 9:43 - And he stayed in Joppa for many days with one Simon, a tanner.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:4 - And he stared at him in terror and said, “What is it, Lord?” And he said to him, “Your prayers and your alms have ascended as a memorial before God.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:7 - When the angel who spoke to him had departed, he called two of his servants and a devout soldier from among those who attended him,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:9 - The next day, as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the housetop about the sixth hour[fn] to pray.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:10 - And he became hungry and wanted something to eat, but while they were preparing it, he fell into a trance
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:14 - But Peter said, “By no means, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:16 - This happened three times, and the thing was taken up at once to heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:17 - Now while Peter was inwardly perplexed as to what the vision that he had seen might mean, behold, the men who were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon's house, stood at the gate
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:19 - And while Peter was pondering the vision, the Spirit said to him, “Behold, three men are looking for you.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:21 - And Peter went down to the men and said, “I am the one you are looking for. What is the reason for your coming?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:22 - And they said, “Cornelius, a centurion, an upright and God-fearing man, who is well spoken of by the whole Jewish nation, was directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and to hear what you have to say.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:23 - So he invited them in to be his guests. The next day he rose and went away with them, and some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:24 - And on the following day they entered Caesarea. Cornelius was expecting them and had called together his relatives and close friends.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:25 - When Peter entered, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:26 - But Peter lifted him up, saying, “Stand up; I too am a man.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:34 - So Peter opened his mouth and said: “Truly I understand that God shows no partiality,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 10:48 - And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to remain for some days.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:1 - Now the apostles and the brothers[fn] who were throughout Judea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:2 - So when Peter went up to Jerusalem, the circumcision party[fn] criticized him, saying,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:4 - But Peter began and explained it to them in order:
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:7 - And I heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter; kill and eat.'
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:9 - But the voice answered a second time from heaven, ‘What God has made clean, do not call common.'
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:10 - This happened three times, and all was drawn up again into heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:12 - And the Spirit told me to go with them, making no distinction. These six brothers also accompanied me, and we entered the man's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:13 - And he told us how he had seen the angel stand in his house and say, ‘Send to Joppa and bring Simon who is called Peter;
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:15 - As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them just as on us at the beginning.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:16 - And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:18 - When they heard these things they fell silent. And they glorified God, saying, “Then to the Gentiles also God has granted repentance that leads to life.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:22 - The report of this came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:25 - So Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:26 - and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church and taught a great many people. And in Antioch the disciples were first called Christians.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:27 - Now in these days prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:28 - And one of them named Agabus stood up and foretold by the Spirit that there would be a great famine over all the world (this took place in the days of Claudius).
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 11:29 - So the disciples determined, every one according to his ability, to send relief to the brothers[fn] living in Judea.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:1 - About that time Herod the king laid violent hands on some who belonged to the church.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:2 - He killed James the brother of John with the sword,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:3 - and when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was during the days of Unleavened Bread.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:5 - So Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer for him was made to God by the church.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:6 - Now when Herod was about to bring him out, on that very night, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries before the door were guarding the prison.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:7 - And behold, an angel of the Lord stood next to him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him, saying, “Get up quickly.” And the chains fell off his hands.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:8 - And the angel said to him, “Dress yourself and put on your sandals.” And he did so. And he said to him, “Wrap your cloak around you and follow me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:9 - And he went out and followed him. He did not know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:10 - When they had passed the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate leading into the city. It opened for them of its own accord, and they went out and went along one street, and immediately the angel left him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:13 - And when he knocked at the door of the gateway, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:14 - Recognizing Peter's voice, in her joy she did not open the gate but ran in and reported that Peter was standing at the gate.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:15 - They said to her, “You are out of your mind.” But she kept insisting that it was so, and they kept saying, “It is his angel!”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:16 - But Peter continued knocking, and when they opened, they saw him and were amazed.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:17 - But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, “Tell these things to James and to the brothers.”[fn] Then he departed and went to another place.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:18 - Now when day came, there was no little disturbance among the soldiers over what had become of Peter.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:19 - And after Herod searched for him and did not find him, he examined the sentries and ordered that they should be put to death. Then he went down from Judea to Caesarea and spent time there.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:20 - Now Herod was angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon, and they came to him with one accord, and having persuaded Blastus, the king's chamberlain,[fn] they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king's country for food.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:21 - On an appointed day Herod put on his royal robes, took his seat upon the throne, and delivered an oration to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:22 - And the people were shouting, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:23 - Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him down, because he did not give God the glory, and he was eaten by worms and breathed his last.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:24 - But the word of God increased and multiplied.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 12:25 - And Barnabas and Saul returned from[fn] Jerusalem when they had completed their service, bringing with them John, whose other name was Mark.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:1 - Now there were in the church at Antioch prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger,[fn] Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen a lifelong friend of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:2 - While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:5 - When they arrived at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John to assist them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:6 - When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they came upon a certain magician, a Jewish false prophet named Bar-Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:8 - But Elymas the magician (for that is the meaning of his name) opposed them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:13 - Now Paul and his companions set sail from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia. And John left them and returned to Jerusalem,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:14 - but they went on from Perga and came to Antioch in Pisidia. And on the Sabbath day they went into the synagogue and sat down.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:15 - After the reading from the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent a message to them, saying, “Brothers, if you have any word of encouragement for the people, say it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:16 - So Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said: “Men of Israel and you who fear God, listen.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:25 - And as John was finishing his course, he said, ‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. No, but behold, after me one is coming, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.'
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:29 - And when they had carried out all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree and laid him in a tomb.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:30 - But God raised him from the dead,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:34 - And as for the fact that he raised him from the dead, no more to return to corruption, he has spoken in this way,
“‘I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.'
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:37 - but he whom God raised up did not see corruption.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:42 - As they went out, the people begged that these things might be told them the next Sabbath.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:43 - And after the meeting of the synagogue broke up, many Jews and devout converts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who, as they spoke with them, urged them to continue in the grace of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:44 - The next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:45 - But when the Jews[fn] saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy and began to contradict what was spoken by Paul, reviling him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:48 - And when the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the word of the Lord, and as many as were appointed to eternal life believed.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:49 - And the word of the Lord was spreading throughout the whole region.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:50 - But the Jews incited the devout women of high standing and the leading men of the city, stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their district.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 13:51 - But they shook off the dust from their feet against them and went to Iconium.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 14:1 - Now at Iconium they entered together into the Jewish synagogue and spoke in such a way that a great number of both Jews and Greeks believed.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 14:2 - But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brothers.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 14:4 - But the people of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews and some with the apostles.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 14:5 - When an attempt was made by both Gentiles and Jews, with their rulers, to mistreat them and to stone them,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 14:12 - Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 14:14 - But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of it, they tore their garments and rushed out into the crowd, crying out,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 14:19 - But Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 14:20 - But when the disciples gathered about him, he rose up and entered the city, and on the next day he went on with Barnabas to Derbe.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 14:23 - And when they had appointed elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting they committed them to the Lord in whom they had believed.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 14:27 - And when they arrived and gathered the church together, they declared all that God had done with them, and how he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 14:28 - And they remained no little time with the disciples.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:2 - And after Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and debate with them, Paul and Barnabas and some of the others were appointed to go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and the elders about this question.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:4 - When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and the apostles and the elders, and they declared all that God had done with them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:7 - And after there had been much debate, Peter stood up and said to them, “Brothers, you know that in the early days God made a choice among you, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:12 - And all the assembly fell silent, and they listened to Barnabas and Paul as they related what signs and wonders God had done through them among the Gentiles.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:13 - After they finished speaking, James replied, “Brothers, listen to me.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:31 - And when they had read it, they rejoiced because of its encouragement.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:33 - And after they had spent some time, they were sent off in peace by the brothers to those who had sent them.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:35 - But Paul and Barnabas remained in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:37 - Now Barnabas wanted to take with them John called Mark.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:38 - But Paul thought best not to take with them one who had withdrawn from them in Pamphylia and had not gone with them to the work.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:39 - And there arose a sharp disagreement, so that they separated from each other. Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:40 - but Paul chose Silas and departed, having been commended by the brothers to the grace of the Lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 15:41 - And he went through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:1 - Paul[fn] came also to Derbe and to Lystra. A disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer, but his father was a Greek.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:4 - As they went on their way through the cities, they delivered to them for observance the decisions that had been reached by the apostles and elders who were in Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:6 - And they went through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:7 - And when they had come up to Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:8 - So, passing by Mysia, they went down to Troas.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:10 - And when Paul[fn] had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go on into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:11 - So, setting sail from Troas, we made a direct voyage to Samothrace, and the following day to Neapolis,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:12 - and from there to Philippi, which is a leading city of the[fn] district of Macedonia and a Roman colony. We remained in this city some days.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:15 - And after she was baptized, and her household as well, she urged us, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay.” And she prevailed upon us.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:16 - As we were going to the place of prayer, we were met by a slave girl who had a spirit of divination and brought her owners much gain by fortune-telling.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:18 - And this she kept doing for many days. Paul, having become greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.” And it came out that very hour.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:19 - But when her owners saw that their hope of gain was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace before the rulers.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:25 - About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:26 - and suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken. And immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone's bonds were unfastened.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:27 - When the jailer woke and saw that the prison doors were open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:28 - But Paul cried with a loud voice, “Do not harm yourself, for we are all here.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:29 - And the jailer[fn] called for lights and rushed in, and trembling with fear he fell down before Paul and Silas.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:31 - And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:35 - But when it was day, the magistrates sent the police, saying, “Let those men go.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:36 - And the jailer reported these words to Paul, saying, “The magistrates have sent to let you go. Therefore come out now and go in peace.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:37 - But Paul said to them, “They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men who are Roman citizens, and have thrown us into prison; and do they now throw us out secretly? No! Let them come themselves and take us out.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:38 - The police reported these words to the magistrates, and they were afraid when they heard that they were Roman citizens.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 16:40 - So they went out of the prison and visited Lydia. And when they had seen the brothers, they encouraged them and departed.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:1 - Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:2 - And Paul went in, as was his custom, and on three Sabbath days he reasoned with them from the Scriptures,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:5 - But the Jews[fn] were jealous, and taking some wicked men of the rabble, they formed a mob, set the city in an uproar, and attacked the house of Jason, seeking to bring them out to the crowd.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:6 - And when they could not find them, they dragged Jason and some of the brothers before the city authorities, shouting, “These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:8 - And the people and the city authorities were disturbed when they heard these things.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:10 - The brothers[fn] immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea, and when they arrived they went into the Jewish synagogue.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:11 - Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessalonica; they received the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:13 - But when the Jews from Thessalonica learned that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul at Berea also, they came there too, agitating and stirring up the crowds.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:14 - Then the brothers immediately sent Paul off on his way to the sea, but Silas and Timothy remained there.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:15 - Those who conducted Paul brought him as far as Athens, and after receiving a command for Silas and Timothy to come to him as soon as possible, they departed.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:16 - Now while Paul was waiting for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw that the city was full of idols.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:18 - Some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers also conversed with him. And some said, “What does this babbler wish to say?” Others said, “He seems to be a preacher of foreign divinities”—because he was preaching Jesus and the resurrection.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:21 - Now all the Athenians and the foreigners who lived there would spend their time in nothing except telling or hearing something new.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:22 - So Paul, standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said: “Men of Athens, I perceive that in every way you are very religious.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:32 - Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked. But others said, “We will hear you again about this.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 17:34 - But some men joined him and believed, among whom also were Dionysius the Areopagite and a woman named Damaris and others with them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:4 - And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and tried to persuade Jews and Greeks.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:5 - When Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedonia, Paul was occupied with the word, testifying to the Jews that the Christ was Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:6 - And when they opposed and reviled him, he shook out his garments and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:8 - Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, together with his entire household. And many of the Corinthians hearing Paul believed and were baptized.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:9 - And the Lord said to Paul one night in a vision, “Do not be afraid, but go on speaking and do not be silent,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:11 - And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:12 - But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews[fn] made a united attack on Paul and brought him before the tribunal,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:14 - But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, “If it were a matter of wrongdoing or vicious crime, O Jews, I would have reason to accept your complaint.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:15 - But since it is a matter of questions about words and names and your own law, see to it yourselves. I refuse to be a judge of these things.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:17 - And they all seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the tribunal. But Gallio paid no attention to any of this.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:18 - After this, Paul stayed many days longer and then took leave of the brothers[fn] and set sail for Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila. At Cenchreae he had cut his hair, for he was under a vow.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:19 - And they came to Ephesus, and he left them there, but he himself went into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:20 - When they asked him to stay for a longer period, he declined.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:26 - He began to speak boldly in the synagogue, but when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 18:27 - And when he wished to cross to Achaia, the brothers encouraged him and wrote to the disciples to welcome him. When he arrived, he greatly helped those who through grace had believed,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:1 - And it happened that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the inland[fn] country and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:2 - And he said to them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” And they said, “No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:3 - And he said, “Into what then were you baptized?” They said, “Into John's baptism.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:4 - And Paul said, “John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, Jesus.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:5 - On hearing this, they were baptized in[fn] the name of the Lord Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:7 - There were about twelve men in all.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:8 - And he entered the synagogue and for three months spoke boldly, reasoning and persuading them about the kingdom of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:10 - This continued for two years, so that all the residents of Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:15 - But the evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and Paul I recognize, but who are you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:17 - And this became known to all the residents of Ephesus, both Jews and Greeks. And fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was extolled.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:19 - And a number of those who had practiced magic arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. And they counted the value of them and found it came to fifty thousand pieces of silver.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:21 - Now after these events Paul resolved in the Spirit to pass through Macedonia and Achaia and go to Jerusalem, saying, “After I have been there, I must also see Rome.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:22 - And having sent into Macedonia two of his helpers, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:23 - About that time there arose no little disturbance concerning the Way.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:27 - And there is danger not only that this trade of ours may come into disrepute but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis may be counted as nothing, and that she may even be deposed from her magnificence, she whom all Asia and the world worship.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:28 - When they heard this they were enraged and were crying out, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:30 - But when Paul wished to go in among the crowd, the disciples would not let him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:31 - And even some of the Asiarchs,[fn] who were friends of his, sent to him and were urging him not to venture into the theater.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:33 - Some of the crowd prompted Alexander, whom the Jews had put forward. And Alexander, motioning with his hand, wanted to make a defense to the crowd.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:34 - But when they recognized that he was a Jew, for about two hours they all cried out with one voice, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 19:35 - And when the town clerk had quieted the crowd, he said, “Men of Ephesus, who is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple keeper of the great Artemis, and of the sacred stone that fell from the sky?[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:1 - After the uproar ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, and after encouraging them, he said farewell and departed for Macedonia.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:2 - When he had gone through those regions and had given them much encouragement, he came to Greece.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:4 - Sopater the Berean, son of Pyrrhus, accompanied him; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and the Asians, Tychicus and Trophimus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:5 - These went on ahead and were waiting for us at Troas,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:6 - but we sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days we came to them at Troas, where we stayed for seven days.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:7 - On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day, and he prolonged his speech until midnight.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:8 - There were many lamps in the upper room where we were gathered.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:10 - But Paul went down and bent over him, and taking him in his arms, said, “Do not be alarmed, for his life is in him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:11 - And when Paul had gone up and had broken bread and eaten, he conversed with them a long while, until daybreak, and so departed.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:12 - And they took the youth away alive, and were not a little comforted.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:13 - But going ahead to the ship, we set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there, for so he had arranged, intending himself to go by land.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:14 - And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and went to Mitylene.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:15 - And sailing from there we came the following day opposite Chios; the next day we touched at Samos; and[fn] the day after that we went to Miletus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:17 - Now from Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called the elders of the church to come to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:18 - And when they came to him, he said to them: “You yourselves know how I lived among you the whole time from the first day that I set foot in Asia,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:37 - And there was much weeping on the part of all; they embraced Paul and kissed him,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 20:38 - being sorrowful most of all because of the word he had spoken, that they would not see his face again. And they accompanied him to the ship.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:1 - And when we had parted from them and set sail, we came by a straight course to Cos, and the next day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:3 - When we had come in sight of Cyprus, leaving it on the left we sailed to Syria and landed at Tyre, for there the ship was to unload its cargo.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:4 - And having sought out the disciples, we stayed there for seven days. And through the Spirit they were telling Paul not to go on to Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:5 - When our days there were ended, we departed and went on our journey, and they all, with wives and children, accompanied us until we were outside the city. And kneeling down on the beach, we prayed
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:6 - and said farewell to one another. Then we went on board the ship, and they returned home.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:7 - When we had finished the voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais, and we greeted the brothers[fn] and stayed with them for one day.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:8 - On the next day we departed and came to Caesarea, and we entered the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:9 - He had four unmarried daughters, who prophesied.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:10 - While we were staying for many days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:12 - When we heard this, we and the people there urged him not to go up to Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:14 - And since he would not be persuaded, we ceased and said, “Let the will of the Lord be done.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:15 - After these days we got ready and went up to Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:16 - And some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, bringing us to the house of Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we should lodge.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:17 - When we had come to Jerusalem, the brothers received us gladly.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:18 - On the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:20 - And when they heard it, they glorified God. And they said to him, “You see, brother, how many thousands there are among the Jews of those who have believed. They are all zealous for the law,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:21 - and they have been told about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children or walk according to our customs.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:25 - But as for the Gentiles who have believed, we have sent a letter with our judgment that they should abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what has been strangled,[fn] and from sexual immorality.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:27 - When the seven days were almost completed, the Jews from Asia, seeing him in the temple, stirred up the whole crowd and laid hands on him,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:32 - He at once took soldiers and centurions and ran down to them. And when they saw the tribune and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:34 - Some in the crowd were shouting one thing, some another. And as he could not learn the facts because of the uproar, he ordered him to be brought into the barracks.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:35 - And when he came to the steps, he was actually carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the crowd,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:37 - As Paul was about to be brought into the barracks, he said to the tribune, “May I say something to you?” And he said, “Do you know Greek?
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:39 - Paul replied, “I am a Jew, from Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no obscure city. I beg you, permit me to speak to the people.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 21:40 - And when he had given him permission, Paul, standing on the steps, motioned with his hand to the people. And when there was a great hush, he addressed them in the Hebrew language,[fn] saying:
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:2 - And when they heard that he was addressing them in the Hebrew language,[fn] they became even more quiet. And he said:
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:3 - “I am a Jew, born in Tarsus in Cilicia, but brought up in this city, educated at the feet of Gamaliel[fn] according to the strict manner of the law of our fathers, being zealous for God as all of you are this day.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:8 - And I answered, ‘Who are you, Lord?' And he said to me, ‘I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting.'
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:9 - Now those who were with me saw the light but did not understand[fn] the voice of the one who was speaking to me.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:10 - And I said, ‘What shall I do, Lord?' And the Lord said to me, ‘Rise, and go into Damascus, and there you will be told all that is appointed for you to do.'
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:11 - And since I could not see because of the brightness of that light, I was led by the hand by those who were with me, and came into Damascus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:14 - And he said, ‘The God of our fathers appointed you to know his will, to see the Righteous One and to hear a voice from his mouth;
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:22 - Up to this word they listened to him. Then they raised their voices and said, “Away with such a fellow from the earth! For he should not be allowed to live.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:25 - But when they had stretched him out for the whips,[fn] Paul said to the centurion who was standing by, “Is it lawful for you to flog a man who is a Roman citizen and uncondemned?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:26 - When the centurion heard this, he went to the tribune and said to him, “What are you about to do? For this man is a Roman citizen.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:27 - So the tribune came and said to him, “Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?” And he said, “Yes.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:28 - The tribune answered, “I bought this citizenship for a large sum.” Paul said, “But I am a citizen by birth.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:29 - So those who were about to examine him withdrew from him immediately, and the tribune also was afraid, for he realized that Paul was a Roman citizen and that he had bound him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 22:30 - But on the next day, desiring to know the real reason why he was being accused by the Jews, he unbound him and commanded the chief priests and all the council to meet, and he brought Paul down and set him before them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:1 - And looking intently at the council, Paul said, “Brothers, I have lived my life before God in all good conscience up to this day.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:2 - And the high priest Ananias commanded those who stood by him to strike him on the mouth.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:4 - Those who stood by said, “Would you revile God's high priest?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:6 - Now when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, “Brothers, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees. It is with respect to the hope and the resurrection of the dead that I am on trial.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:7 - And when he had said this, a dissension arose between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and the assembly was divided.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:8 - For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor angel, nor spirit, but the Pharisees acknowledge them all.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:9 - Then a great clamor arose, and some of the scribes of the Pharisees' party stood up and contended sharply, “We find nothing wrong in this man. What if a spirit or an angel spoke to him?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:10 - And when the dissension became violent, the tribune, afraid that Paul would be torn to pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him away from among them by force and bring him into the barracks.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:11 - The following night the Lord stood by him and said, “Take courage, for as you have testified to the facts about me in Jerusalem, so you must testify also in Rome.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:12 - When it was day, the Jews made a plot and bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink till they had killed Paul.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:13 - There were more than forty who made this conspiracy.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:15 - Now therefore you, along with the council, give notice to the tribune to bring him down to you, as though you were going to determine his case more exactly. And we are ready to kill him before he comes near.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:16 - Now the son of Paul's sister heard of their ambush, so he went and entered the barracks and told Paul.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:17 - Paul called one of the centurions and said, “Take this young man to the tribune, for he has something to tell him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:19 - The tribune took him by the hand, and going aside asked him privately, “What is it that you have to tell me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:20 - And he said, “The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down to the council tomorrow, as though they were going to inquire somewhat more closely about him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:29 - I found that he was being accused about questions of their law, but charged with nothing deserving death or imprisonment.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:32 - And on the next day they returned to the barracks, letting the horsemen go on with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 23:34 - On reading the letter, he asked what province he was from. And when he learned that he was from Cilicia,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 24:1 - And after five days the high priest Ananias came down with some elders and a spokesman, one Tertullus. They laid before the governor their case against Paul.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 24:2 - And when he had been summoned, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying: “Since through you we enjoy much peace, and since by your foresight, most excellent Felix, reforms are being made for this nation,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 24:4 - But, to detain[fn] you no further, I beg you in your kindness to hear us briefly.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 24:9 - The Jews also joined in the charge, affirming that all these things were so.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 24:14 - But this I confess to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I worship the God of our fathers, believing everything laid down by the Law and written in the Prophets,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 24:17 - Now after several years I came to bring alms to my nation and to present offerings.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 24:18 - While I was doing this, they found me purified in the temple, without any crowd or tumult. But some Jews from Asia—
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 24:22 - But Felix, having a rather accurate knowledge of the Way, put them off, saying, “When Lysias the tribune comes down, I will decide your case.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 24:24 - After some days Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish, and he sent for Paul and heard him speak about faith in Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 24:25 - And as he reasoned about righteousness and self-control and the coming judgment, Felix was alarmed and said, “Go away for the present. When I get an opportunity I will summon you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 24:27 - When two years had elapsed, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus. And desiring to do the Jews a favor, Felix left Paul in prison.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:4 - Festus replied that Paul was being kept at Caesarea and that he himself intended to go there shortly.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:6 - After he stayed among them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea. And the next day he took his seat on the tribunal and ordered Paul to be brought.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:7 - When he had arrived, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing many and serious charges against him that they could not prove.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:9 - But Festus, wishing to do the Jews a favor, said to Paul, “Do you wish to go up to Jerusalem and there be tried on these charges before me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:10 - But Paul said, “I am standing before Caesar's tribunal, where I ought to be tried. To the Jews I have done no wrong, as you yourself know very well.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:11 - If then I am a wrongdoer and have committed anything for which I deserve to die, I do not seek to escape death. But if there is nothing to their charges against me, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:13 - Now when some days had passed, Agrippa the king and Bernice arrived at Caesarea and greeted Festus.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:14 - And as they stayed there many days, Festus laid Paul's case before the king, saying, “There is a man left prisoner by Felix,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:20 - Being at a loss how to investigate these questions, I asked whether he wanted to go to Jerusalem and be tried there regarding them.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:21 - But when Paul had appealed to be kept in custody for the decision of the emperor, I ordered him to be held until I could send him to Caesar.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:22 - Then Agrippa said to Festus, “I would like to hear the man myself.” “Tomorrow,” said he, “you will hear him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 25:25 - But I found that he had done nothing deserving death. And as he himself appealed to the emperor, I decided to go ahead and send him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 26:1 - So Agrippa said to Paul, “You have permission to speak for yourself.” Then Paul stretched out his hand and made his defense:
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 26:15 - And I said, ‘Who are you, Lord?' And the Lord said, ‘I am Jesus whom you are persecuting.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 26:24 - And as he was saying these things in his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, “Paul, you are out of your mind; your great learning is driving you out of your mind.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 26:25 - But Paul said, “I am not out of my mind, most excellent Festus, but I am speaking true and rational words.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 26:28 - And Agrippa said to Paul, “In a short time would you persuade me to be a Christian?”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 26:29 - And Paul said, “Whether short or long, I would to God that not only you but also all who hear me this day might become such as I am—except for these chains.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 26:32 - And Agrippa said to Festus, “This man could have been set free if he had not appealed to Caesar.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:1 - And when it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion of the Augustan Cohort named Julius.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:2 - And embarking in a ship of Adramyttium, which was about to sail to the ports along the coast of Asia, we put to sea, accompanied by Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:7 - We sailed slowly for a number of days and arrived with difficulty off Cnidus, and as the wind did not allow us to go farther, we sailed under the lee of Crete off Salmone.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:9 - Since much time had passed, and the voyage was now dangerous because even the Fast[fn] was already over, Paul advised them,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:11 - But the centurion paid more attention to the pilot and to the owner of the ship than to what Paul said.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:12 - And because the harbor was not suitable to spend the winter in, the majority decided to put out to sea from there, on the chance that somehow they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete, facing both southwest and northwest, and spend the winter there.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:13 - Now when the south wind blew gently, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along Crete, close to the shore.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:14 - But soon a tempestuous wind, called the northeaster, struck down from the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:15 - And when the ship was caught and could not face the wind, we gave way to it and were driven along.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:18 - Since we were violently storm-tossed, they began the next day to jettison the cargo.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:20 - When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope of our being saved was at last abandoned.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:27 - When the fourteenth night had come, as we were being driven across the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors suspected that they were nearing land.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:28 - So they took a sounding and found twenty fathoms.[fn] A little farther on they took a sounding again and found fifteen fathoms.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:30 - And as the sailors were seeking to escape from the ship, and had lowered the ship's boat into the sea under pretense of laying out anchors from the bow,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:33 - As day was about to dawn, Paul urged them all to take some food, saying, “Today is the fourteenth day that you have continued in suspense and without food, having taken nothing.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:35 - And when he had said these things, he took bread, and giving thanks to God in the presence of all he broke it and began to eat.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:36 - Then they all were encouraged and ate some food themselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:37 - (We were in all 276[fn] persons in the ship.)
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:38 - And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, throwing out the wheat into the sea.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:39 - Now when it was day, they did not recognize the land, but they noticed a bay with a beach, on which they planned if possible to run the ship ashore.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:41 - But striking a reef,[fn] they ran the vessel aground. The bow stuck and remained immovable, and the stern was being broken up by the surf.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:42 - The soldiers' plan was to kill the prisoners, lest any should swim away and escape.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:43 - But the centurion, wishing to save Paul, kept them from carrying out their plan. He ordered those who could swim to jump overboard first and make for the land,
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 27:44 - and the rest on planks or on pieces of the ship. And so it was that all were brought safely to land.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:3 - When Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and put them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened on his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:4 - When the native people saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “No doubt this man is a murderer. Though he has escaped from the sea, Justice[fn] has not allowed him to live.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:6 - They were waiting for him to swell up or suddenly fall down dead. But when they had waited a long time and saw no misfortune come to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:7 - Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us and entertained us hospitably for three days.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:8 - It happened that the father of Publius lay sick with fever and dysentery. And Paul visited him and prayed, and putting his hands on him, healed him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:9 - And when this had taken place, the rest of the people on the island who had diseases also came and were cured.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:11 - After three months we set sail in a ship that had wintered in the island, a ship of Alexandria, with the twin gods[fn] as a figurehead.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:16 - And when we came into Rome, Paul was allowed to stay by himself, with the soldier who guarded him.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:17 - After three days he called together the local leaders of the Jews, and when they had gathered, he said to them, “Brothers, though I had done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:19 - But because the Jews objected, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar—though I had no charge to bring against my nation.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:21 - And they said to him, “We have received no letters from Judea about you, and none of the brothers coming here has reported or spoken any evil about you.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:22 - But we desire to hear from you what your views are, for with regard to this sect we know that everywhere it is spoken against.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:23 - When they had appointed a day for him, they came to him at his lodging in greater numbers. From morning till evening he expounded to them, testifying to the kingdom of God and trying to convince them about Jesus both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:24 - And some were convinced by what he said, but others disbelieved.
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:25 - And disagreeing among themselves, they departed after Paul had made one statement: “The Holy Spirit was right in saying to your fathers through Isaiah the prophet:
Unchecked Copy BoxAct 28:30 - He lived there two whole years at his own expense,[fn] and welcomed all who came to him,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 1:13 - I do not want you to be unaware, brothers,[fn] that I have often intended to come to you (but thus far have been prevented), in order that I may reap some harvest among you as well as among the rest of the Gentiles.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 1:17 - For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith,[fn] as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 2:2 - We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 2:3 - Do you suppose, O man—you who judge those who practice such things and yet do them yourself—that you will escape the judgment of God?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 2:5 - But because of your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 2:8 - but for those who are self-seeking[fn] and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there will be wrath and fury.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 2:10 - but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 2:17 - But if you call yourself a Jew and rely on the law and boast in God
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 2:25 - For circumcision indeed is of value if you obey the law, but if you break the law, your circumcision becomes uncircumcision.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:4 - By no means! Let God be true though every one were a liar, as it is written,
“That you may be justified in your words,
and prevail when you are judged.”
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:5 - But if our unrighteousness serves to show the righteousness of God, what shall we say? That God is unrighteous to inflict wrath on us? (I speak in a human way.)
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:7 - But if through my lie God's truth abounds to his glory, why am I still being condemned as a sinner?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:19 - Now we know that whatever the law says it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may be held accountable to God.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:21 - But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it—
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 3:22 - the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction:
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 4:3 - For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness.”
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 4:4 - Now to the one who works, his wages are not counted as a gift but as his due.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 4:5 - And to the one who does not work but believes in[fn] him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 4:15 - For the law brings wrath, but where there is no law there is no transgression.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 4:20 - No unbelief made him waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 4:23 - But the words “it was counted to him” were not written for his sake alone,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:4 - and endurance produces character, and character produces hope,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:5 - and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:8 - but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:13 - for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:16 - And the free gift is not like the result of that one man's sin. For the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the free gift following many trespasses brought justification.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 5:20 - Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:8 - Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:10 - For the death he died he died to sin, once for all, but the life he lives he lives to God.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:11 - So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:17 - But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:18 - and, having been set free from sin, have become slaves of righteousness.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:22 - But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end, eternal life.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 6:23 - For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:2 - For a married woman is bound by law to her husband while he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of marriage.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:3 - Accordingly, she will be called an adulteress if she lives with another man while her husband is alive. But if her husband dies, she is free from that law, and if she marries another man she is not an adulteress.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:6 - But now we are released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:8 - But sin, seizing an opportunity through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of covetousness. For apart from the law, sin lies dead.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:9 - I was once alive apart from the law, but when the commandment came, sin came alive and I died.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:14 - For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am of the flesh, sold under sin.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:16 - Now if I do what I do not want, I agree with the law, that it is good.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:17 - So now it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:18 - For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:20 - Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:23 - but I see in my members another law waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that dwells in my members.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 7:25 - Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:5 - For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:6 - For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:8 - Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:9 - You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:10 - But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:11 - If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus[fn] from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:13 - For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:17 - and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:24 - For in this hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:25 - But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:26 - Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:27 - And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because[fn] the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:28 - And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good,[fn] for those who are called according to his purpose.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:30 - And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 8:34 - Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:6 - But it is not as though the word of God has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:13 - As it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:18 - So then he has mercy on whomever he wills, and he hardens whomever he wills.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:21 - Has the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for dishonorable use?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:22 - What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:27 - And Isaiah cries out concerning Israel: “Though the number of the sons of Israel[fn] be as the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them will be saved,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:30 - What shall we say, then? That Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness have attained it, that is, a righteousness that is by faith;
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 9:31 - but that Israel who pursued a law that would lead to righteousness[fn] did not succeed in reaching that law.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 10:6 - But the righteousness based on faith says, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?'” (that is, to bring Christ down)
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 10:10 - For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 10:14 - How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard?[fn] And how are they to hear without someone preaching?
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 10:15 - And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 10:17 - So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 10:20 - Then Isaiah is so bold as to say,
“I have been found by those who did not seek me;
I have shown myself to those who did not ask for me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 10:21 - But of Israel he says, “All day long I have held out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people.”
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:6 - But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:7 - What then? Israel failed to obtain what it was seeking. The elect obtained it, but the rest were hardened,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:12 - Now if their trespass means riches for the world, and if their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full inclusion[fn] mean!
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:13 - Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:16 - If the dough offered as firstfruits is holy, so is the whole lump, and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:17 - But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, although a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing root[fn] of the olive tree,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:18 - do not be arrogant toward the branches. If you are, remember it is not you who support the root, but the root that supports you.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:20 - That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast through faith. So do not become proud, but fear.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:22 - Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness. Otherwise you too will be cut off.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:28 - As regards the gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But as regards election, they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 11:30 - For just as you were at one time disobedient to God but now have received mercy because of their disobedience,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 12:4 - For as in one body we have many members,[fn] and the members do not all have the same function,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 12:5 - so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 12:6 - Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith;
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 13:1 - Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 13:2 - Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 13:3 - For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 13:4 - for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 13:12 - The night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 14:1 - As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 14:2 - One person believes he may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 14:3 - Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 14:5 - One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 14:10 - Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God;
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 14:23 - But whoever has doubts is condemned if he eats, because the eating is not from faith. For whatever does not proceed from faith is sin.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:1 - We who are strong have an obligation to bear with the failings of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:5 - May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:9 - and in order that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written,
“Therefore I will praise you among the Gentiles,
and sing to your name.”
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:13 - May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:15 - But on some points I have written to you very boldly by way of reminder, because of the grace given me by God
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:20 - and thus I make it my ambition to preach the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, lest I build on someone else's foundation,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:23 - But now, since I no longer have any room for work in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to come to you,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:25 - At present, however, I am going to Jerusalem bringing aid to the saints.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:29 - I know that when I come to you I will come in the fullness of the blessing[fn] of Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:30 - I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God on my behalf,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 15:33 - May the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:1 - I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a servant[fn] of the church at Cenchreae,
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:17 - I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:19 - For your obedience is known to all, so that I rejoice over you, but I want you to be wise as to what is good and innocent as to what is evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:20 - The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:25 - Now to him who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery that was kept secret for long ages
Unchecked Copy BoxRom 16:26 - but has now been disclosed and through the prophetic writings has been made known to all nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith—
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 1:10 - I appeal to you, brothers,[fn] by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 1:12 - What I mean is that each one of you says, “I follow Paul,” or “I follow Apollos,” or “I follow Cephas,” or “I follow Christ.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 1:16 - (I did baptize also the household of Stephanas. Beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized anyone else.)
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 1:18 - For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 1:23 - but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 1:24 - but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 1:30 - And because of him[fn] you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:6 - Yet among the mature we do impart wisdom, although it is not a wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are doomed to pass away.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:10 - these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:12 - Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:14 - The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:15 - The spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:16 - “For who has understood the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 3:8 - He who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his wages according to his labor.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 3:10 - According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled[fn] master builder I laid a foundation, and someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 3:15 - If anyone's work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 3:23 - and you are Christ's, and Christ is God's.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:3 - But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:4 - For I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:7 - For who sees anything different in you? What do you have that you did not receive? If then you received it, why do you boast as if you did not receive it?
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:10 - We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are held in honor, but we in disrepute.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 4:19 - But I will come to you soon, if the Lord wills, and I will find out not the talk of these arrogant people but their power.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 5:3 - For though absent in body, I am present in spirit; and as if present, I have already pronounced judgment on the one who did such a thing.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 5:11 - But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of brother if he is guilty of sexual immorality or greed, or is an idolater, reviler, drunkard, or swindler—not even to eat with such a one.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 5:13 - God judges[fn] those outside. “Purge the evil person from among you.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 6:13 - “Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food”—and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 6:14 - And God raised the Lord and will also raise us up by his power.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 6:17 - But he who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 6:18 - Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin[fn] a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:1 - Now concerning the matters about which you wrote: “It is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a woman.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:2 - But because of the temptation to sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:3 - The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:4 - For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:6 - Now as a concession, not a command, I say this.[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:7 - I wish that all were as I myself am. But each has his own gift from God, one of one kind and one of another.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:8 - To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is good for them to remain single, as I am.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:9 - But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:10 - To the married I give this charge (not I, but the Lord): the wife should not separate from her husband
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:11 - (but if she does, she should remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband), and the husband should not divorce his wife.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:12 - To the rest I say (I, not the Lord) that if any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he should not divorce her.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:14 - For the unbelieving husband is made holy because of his wife, and the unbelieving wife is made holy because of her husband. Otherwise your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:15 - But if the unbelieving partner separates, let it be so. In such cases the brother or sister is not enslaved. God has called you[fn] to peace.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:25 - Now concerning[fn] the betrothed,[fn] I have no command from the Lord, but I give my judgment as one who by the Lord's mercy is trustworthy.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:28 - But if you do marry, you have not sinned, and if a betrothed woman[fn] marries, she has not sinned. Yet those who marry will have worldly troubles, and I would spare you that.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:32 - I want you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried man is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to please the Lord.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:33 - But the married man is anxious about worldly things, how to please his wife,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:34 - and his interests are divided. And the unmarried or betrothed woman is anxious about the things of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit. But the married woman is anxious about worldly things, how to please her husband.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:35 - I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:37 - But whoever is firmly established in his heart, being under no necessity but having his desire under control, and has determined this in his heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:39 - A wife is bound to her husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to be married to whom she wishes, only in the Lord.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 7:40 - Yet in my judgment she is happier if she remains as she is. And I think that I too have the Spirit of God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 8:1 - Now concerning[fn] food offered to idols: we know that “all of us possess knowledge.” This “knowledge” puffs up, but love builds up.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 8:7 - However, not all possess this knowledge. But some, through former association with idols, eat food as really offered to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 8:8 - Food will not commend us to God. We are no worse off if we do not eat, and no better off if we do.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 8:9 - But take care that this right of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 8:12 - Thus, sinning against your brothers[fn] and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 9:15 - But I have made no use of any of these rights, nor am I writing these things to secure any such provision. For I would rather die than have anyone deprive me of my ground for boasting.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 9:17 - For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward, but if not of my own will, I am still entrusted with a stewardship.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 9:23 - I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share with them in its blessings.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 9:24 - Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 9:25 - Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:4 - and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual Rock that followed them, and the Rock was Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:6 - Now these things took place as examples for us, that we might not desire evil as they did.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:11 - Now these things happened to them as an example, but they were written down for our instruction, on whom the end of the ages has come.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:13 - No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:20 - No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 10:29 - I do not mean your conscience, but his. For why should my liberty be determined by someone else's conscience?
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:2 - Now I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I delivered them to you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:3 - But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a wife[fn] is her husband,[fn] and the head of Christ is God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:5 - but every wife[fn] who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, since it is the same as if her head were shaven.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:6 - For if a wife will not cover her head, then she should cut her hair short. But since it is disgraceful for a wife to cut off her hair or shave her head, let her cover her head.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:7 - For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God, but woman is the glory of man.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:12 - for as woman was made from man, so man is now born of woman. And all things are from God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:15 - but if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For her hair is given to her for a covering.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:17 - But in the following instructions I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:21 - For in eating, each one goes ahead with his own meal. One goes hungry, another gets drunk.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:28 - Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:31 - But if we judged[fn] ourselves truly, we would not be judged.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:32 - But when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined[fn] so that we may not be condemned along with the world.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 11:34 - if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home—so that when you come together it will not be for judgment. About the other things I will give directions when I come.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:1 - Now concerning[fn] spiritual gifts,[fn] brothers,[fn] I do not want you to be uninformed.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:4 - Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit;
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:6 - and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:7 - To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:8 - For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:9 - to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:10 - to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:11 - All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:12 - For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:18 - But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:19 - If all were a single member, where would the body be?
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:20 - As it is, there are many parts,[fn] yet one body.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:21 - The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:24 - which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 12:31 - But earnestly desire the higher gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 13:1 - If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 13:2 - And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 13:3 - If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned,[fn] but have not love, I gain nothing.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 13:6 - it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 13:8 - Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 13:10 - but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 13:12 - For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 13:13 - So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:1 - Pursue love, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:2 - For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:3 - On the other hand, the one who prophesies speaks to people for their upbuilding and encouragement and consolation.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:4 - The one who speaks in a tongue builds up himself, but the one who prophesies builds up the church.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:5 - Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more to prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues, unless someone interprets, so that the church may be built up.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:14 - For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays but my mind is unfruitful.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:15 - What am I to do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will pray with my mind also; I will sing praise with my spirit, but I will sing with my mind also.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:20 - Brothers, do not be children in your thinking. Be infants in evil, but in your thinking be mature.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:22 - Thus tongues are a sign not for believers but for unbelievers, while prophecy is a sign[fn] not for unbelievers but for believers.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:23 - If, therefore, the whole church comes together and all speak in tongues, and outsiders or unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are out of your minds?
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:24 - But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or outsider enters, he is convicted by all, he is called to account by all,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:28 - But if there is no one to interpret, let each of them keep silent in church and speak to himself and to God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:29 - Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others weigh what is said.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:30 - If a revelation is made to another sitting there, let the first be silent.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 14:40 - But all things should be done decently and in order.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:1 - Now I would remind you, brothers,[fn] of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:6 - Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:8 - Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:10 - But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:12 - Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:13 - But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:14 - And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:15 - We are even found to be misrepresenting God, because we testified about God that he raised Christ, whom he did not raise if it is true that the dead are not raised.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:17 - And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:20 - But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:23 - But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:27 - For “God[fn] has put all things in subjection under his feet.” But when it says, “all things are put in subjection,” it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjection under him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:28 - When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that God may be all in all.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:35 - But someone will ask, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:38 - But God gives it a body as he has chosen, and to each kind of seed its own body.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:39 - For not all flesh is the same, but there is one kind for humans, another for animals, another for birds, and another for fish.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:40 - There are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies, but the glory of the heavenly is of one kind, and the glory of the earthly is of another.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:51 - Behold! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:54 - When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written:
“Death is swallowed up in victory.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:56 - The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 15:57 - But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:1 - Now concerning[fn] the collection for the saints: as I directed the churches of Galatia, so you also are to do.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:3 - And when I arrive, I will send those whom you accredit by letter to carry your gift to Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:4 - If it seems advisable that I should go also, they will accompany me.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:5 - I will visit you after passing through Macedonia, for I intend to pass through Macedonia,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:6 - and perhaps I will stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may help me on my journey, wherever I go.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:8 - But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost,
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:10 - When Timothy comes, see that you put him at ease among you, for he is doing the work of the Lord, as I am.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:11 - So let no one despise him. Help him on his way in peace, that he may return to me, for I am expecting him with the brothers.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:12 - Now concerning our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to visit you with the other brothers, but it was not at all his will[fn] to come now. He will come when he has opportunity.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:15 - Now I urge you, brothers[fn]—you know that the household[fn] of Stephanas were the first converts in Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to the service of the saints—
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 16:17 - I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they have made up for your absence,
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:6 - If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:12 - For our boast is this, the testimony of our conscience, that we behaved in the world with simplicity[fn] and godly sincerity, not by earthly wisdom but by the grace of God, and supremely so toward you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:13 - For we are not writing to you anything other than what you read and understand and I hope you will fully understand—
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:18 - As surely as God is faithful, our word to you has not been Yes and No.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:21 - And it is God who establishes us with you in Christ, and has anointed us,
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 1:23 - But I call God to witness against me—it was to spare you that I refrained from coming again to Corinth.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:12 - When I came to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ, even though a door was opened for me in the Lord,
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:14 - But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 2:16 - to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things?
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 3:4 - Such is the confidence that we have through Christ toward God.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 3:6 - who has made us sufficient to be ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 3:7 - Now if the ministry of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at Moses' face because of its glory, which was being brought to an end,
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 3:16 - But when one[fn] turns to the Lord, the veil is removed.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 3:17 - Now the Lord[fn] is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 3:18 - And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord,[fn] are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another.[fn] For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:3 - And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:5 - For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants[fn] for Jesus' sake.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:7 - But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:12 - So death is at work in us, but life in you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:13 - Since we have the same spirit of faith according to what has been written, “I believed, and so I spoke,” we also believe, and so we also speak,
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 4:18 - as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 5:5 - He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 5:8 - Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 5:11 - Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade others. But what we are is known to God, and I hope it is known also to your conscience.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 5:18 - All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation;
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 6:1 - Working together with him, then, we appeal to you not to receive the grace of God in vain.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 6:10 - as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing everything.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 6:12 - You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted in your own affections.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 6:13 - In return (I speak as to children) widen your hearts also.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 6:15 - What accord has Christ with Belial?[fn] Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever?
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 6:16 - What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said,
“I will make my dwelling among them and walk among them,
and I will be their God,
and they shall be my people.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 7:7 - and not only by his coming but also by the comfort with which he was comforted by you, as he told us of your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 7:10 - For godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 7:13 - Therefore we are comforted. And besides our own comfort, we rejoiced still more at the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:1 - We want you to know, brothers,[fn] about the grace of God that has been given among the churches of Macedonia,
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:11 - So now finish doing it as well, so that your readiness in desiring it may be matched by your completing it out of what you have.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:16 - But thanks be to God, who put into the heart of Titus the same earnest care I have for you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:17 - For he not only accepted our appeal, but being himself very earnest he is going[fn] to you of his own accord.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:18 - With him we are sending[fn] the brother who is famous among all the churches for his preaching of the gospel.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:19 - And not only that, but he has been appointed by the churches to travel with us as we carry out this act of grace that is being ministered by us, for the glory of the Lord himself and to show our good will.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 8:22 - And with them we are sending our brother whom we have often tested and found earnest in many matters, but who is now more earnest than ever because of his great confidence in you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 9:3 - But I am sending[fn] the brothers so that our boasting about you may not prove empty in this matter, so that you may be ready, as I said you would be.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 9:8 - And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency[fn] in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 9:10 - He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:1 - I, Paul, myself entreat you, by the meekness and gentleness of Christ—I who am humble when face to face with you, but bold toward you when I am away!—
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:2 - I beg of you that when I am present I may not have to show boldness with such confidence as I count on showing against some who suspect us of walking according to the flesh.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:10 - For they say, “His letters are weighty and strong, but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech of no account.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:13 - But we will not boast beyond limits, but will boast only with regard to the area of influence God assigned to us, to reach even to you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:15 - We do not boast beyond limit in the labors of others. But our hope is that as your faith increases, our area of influence among you may be greatly enlarged,
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 10:17 - “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:3 - But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:6 - Even if I am unskilled in speaking, I am not so in knowledge; indeed, in every way we have made this plain to you in all things.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:12 - And what I am doing I will continue to do, in order to undermine the claim of those who would like to claim that in their boasted mission they work on the same terms as we do.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 11:16 - I repeat, let no one think me foolish. But even if you do, accept me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:1 - I must go on boasting. Though there is nothing to be gained by it, I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:5 - On behalf of this man I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except of my weaknesses—
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:15 - I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more, am I to be loved less?
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 12:19 - Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves to you? It is in the sight of God that we have been speaking in Christ, and all for your upbuilding, beloved.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 13:6 - I hope you will find out that we have not failed the test.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 13:7 - But we pray to God that you may not do wrong—not that we may appear to have met the test, but that you may do what is right, though we may seem to have failed.
Unchecked Copy Box2Co 13:9 - For we are glad when we are weak and you are strong. Your restoration is what we pray for.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:15 - But when he who had set me apart before I was born,[fn] and who called me by his grace,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:19 - But I saw none of the other apostles except James the Lord's brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:20 - (In what I am writing to you, before God, I do not lie!)
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:22 - And I was still unknown in person to the churches of Judea that are in Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:23 - They only were hearing it said, “He who used to persecute us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:2 - I went up because of a revelation and set before them (though privately before those who seemed influential) the gospel that I proclaim among the Gentiles, in order to make sure I was not running or had not run in vain.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:4 - Yet because of false brothers secretly brought in—who slipped in to spy out our freedom that we have in Christ Jesus, so that they might bring us into slavery—
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:6 - And from those who seemed to be influential (what they were makes no difference to me; God shows no partiality)—those, I say, who seemed influential added nothing to me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:9 - and when James and Cephas and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given to me, they gave the right hand of fellowship to Barnabas and me, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:11 - But when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:12 - For before certain men came from James, he was eating with the Gentiles; but when they came he drew back and separated himself, fearing the circumcision party.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:16 - yet we know that a person is not justified[fn] by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:17 - But if, in our endeavor to be justified in Christ, we too were found to be sinners, is Christ then a servant of sin? Certainly not!
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 2:20 - I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:8 - And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify[fn] the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “In you shall all the nations be blessed.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:11 - Now it is evident that no one is justified before God by the law, for “The righteous shall live by faith.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:12 - But the law is not of faith, rather “The one who does them shall live by them.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:16 - Now the promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring. It does not say, “And to offsprings,” referring to many, but referring to one, “And to your offspring,” who is Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:17 - This is what I mean: the law, which came 430 years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to make the promise void.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:18 - For if the inheritance comes by the law, it no longer comes by promise; but God gave it to Abraham by a promise.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:20 - Now an intermediary implies more than one, but God is one.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:23 - Now before faith came, we were held captive under the law, imprisoned until the coming faith would be revealed.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:25 - But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 3:29 - And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:4 - But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:7 - So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:9 - But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles of the world, whose slaves you want to be once more?
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:13 - You know it was because of a bodily ailment that I preached the gospel to you at first,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:18 - It is always good to be made much of for a good purpose, and not only when I am present with you,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:20 - I wish I could be present with you now and change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:23 - But the son of the slave was born according to the flesh, while the son of the free woman was born through promise.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:25 - Now Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia;[fn] she corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 4:26 - But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:3 - I testify again to every man who accepts circumcision that he is obligated to keep the whole law.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:10 - I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view, and the one who is troubling you will bear the penalty, whoever he is.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:15 - But if you bite and devour one another, watch out that you are not consumed by one another.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:17 - For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:18 - But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:22 - But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 5:24 - And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 6:4 - But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 6:6 - Let the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 6:8 - For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 6:9 - And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 6:10 - So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 6:14 - But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which[fn] the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 2:4 - But[fn] God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 2:13 - But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 3:20 - Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:7 - But grace was given to each one of us according to the measure of Christ's gift.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:9 - (In saying, “He ascended,” what does it mean but that he had also descended into the lower regions, the earth?[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:11 - And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds[fn] and teachers,[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:15 - Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:20 - But that is not the way you learned Christ!—
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:23 - and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:28 - Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 4:32 - Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 5:3 - But sexual immorality and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 5:8 - for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 5:11 - Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 5:13 - But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible,
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 5:32 - This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 5:33 - However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
Unchecked Copy BoxEph 6:21 - So that you also may know how I am and what I am doing, Tychicus the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord will tell you everything.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:12 - I want you to know, brothers,[fn] that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel,
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:15 - Some indeed preach Christ from envy and rivalry, but others from good will.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:17 - The former proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely but thinking to afflict me in my imprisonment.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:22 - If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:23 - I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:24 - But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 1:28 - and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear sign to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:8 - And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:18 - Likewise you also should be glad and rejoice with me.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:19 - I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, so that I too may be cheered by news of you.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:22 - But you know Timothy's[fn] proven worth, how as a son[fn] with a father he has served with me in the gospel.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:24 - and I trust in the Lord that shortly I myself will come also.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:25 - I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to my need,
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 2:27 - Indeed he was ill, near to death. But God had mercy on him, and not only on him but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 3:1 - Finally, my brothers,[fn] rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is no trouble to me and is safe for you.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 3:12 - Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 3:13 - Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead,
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 3:18 - For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, walk as enemies of the cross of Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 4:10 - I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me. You were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 4:15 - And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedonia, no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving, except you only.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 4:18 - I have received full payment, and more. I am well supplied, having received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent, a fragrant offering, a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 4:19 - And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 4:20 - To our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhl 4:22 - All the saints greet you, especially those of Caesar's household.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:22 - he has now reconciled in his body of flesh by his death, in order to present you holy and blameless and above reproach before him,
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 1:26 - the mystery hidden for ages and generations but now revealed to his saints.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 2:17 - These are a shadow of the things to come, but the substance belongs to Christ.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 3:8 - But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth.
Unchecked Copy BoxCol 3:14 - And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 2:16 - by hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles that they might be saved—so as always to fill up the measure of their sins. But wrath has come upon them at last![fn]
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:6 - But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and has brought us the good news of your faith and love and reported that you always remember us kindly and long to see us, as we long to see you—
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:11 - Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you,
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 3:12 - and may the Lord make you increase and abound in love for one another and for all, as we do for you,
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 4:9 - Now concerning brotherly love you have no need for anyone to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another,
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 4:10 - for that indeed is what you are doing to all the brothers throughout Macedonia. But we urge you, brothers, to do this more and more,
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 4:13 - But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:1 - Now concerning the times and the seasons, brothers,[fn] you have no need to have anything written to you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:8 - But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:12 - We ask you, brothers, to respect those who labor among you and are over you in the Lord and admonish you,
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:14 - And we urge you, brothers, admonish the idle,[fn] encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with them all.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:21 - but test everything; hold fast what is good.
Unchecked Copy Box1Th 5:23 - Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:1 - Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we ask you, brothers,[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:13 - But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the firstfruits[fn] to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 2:16 - Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:4 - And we have confidence in the Lord about you, that you are doing and will do the things that we command.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:5 - May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the steadfastness of Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:6 - Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is walking in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us.
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:12 - Now such persons we command and encourage in the Lord Jesus Christ to do their work quietly and to earn their own living.[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box2Th 3:16 - Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 1:5 - The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 1:8 - Now we know that the law is good, if one uses it lawfully,
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 1:9 - understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for those who strike their fathers and mothers, for murderers,
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 1:14 - and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 1:17 - To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever.[fn] Amen.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 2:12 - I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 2:14 - and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 2:15 - Yet she will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith and love and holiness, with self-control.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 3:7 - Moreover, he must be well thought of by outsiders, so that he may not fall into disgrace, into a snare of the devil.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 3:10 - And let them also be tested first; then let them serve as deacons if they prove themselves blameless.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 3:15 - if I delay, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, a pillar and buttress of the truth.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 4:1 - Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons,
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 4:7 - Have nothing to do with irreverent, silly myths. Rather train yourself for godliness;
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 4:8 - for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 5:5 - She who is truly a widow, left all alone, has set her hope on God and continues in supplications and prayers night and day,
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 5:6 - but she who is self-indulgent is dead even while she lives.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 5:11 - But refuse to enroll younger widows, for when their passions draw them away from Christ, they desire to marry
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 5:13 - Besides that, they learn to be idlers, going about from house to house, and not only idlers, but also gossips and busybodies, saying what they should not.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 5:24 - The sins of some people are conspicuous, going before them to judgment, but the sins of others appear later.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:2 - Those who have believing masters must not be disrespectful on the ground that they are brothers; rather they must serve all the better since those who benefit by their good service are believers and beloved. Teach and urge these things.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:6 - But godliness with contentment is great gain,
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:8 - But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:9 - But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ti 6:11 - But as for you, O man of God, flee these things. Pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 1:5 - I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you as well.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 1:10 - and which now has been manifested through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 2:5 - An athlete is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 2:16 - But avoid irreverent babble, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 2:20 - Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and clay, some for honorable use, some for dishonorable.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 2:22 - So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 2:23 - Have nothing to do with foolish, ignorant controversies; you know that they breed quarrels.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 2:24 - And the Lord's servant[fn] must not be quarrelsome but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently enduring evil,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:1 - But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:5 - having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:8 - Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind and disqualified regarding the faith.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:10 - You, however, have followed my teaching, my conduct, my aim in life, my faith, my patience, my love, my steadfastness,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:12 - Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:13 - while evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:14 - But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom[fn] you learned it
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 4:4 - and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 4:5 - As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 4:8 - Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 4:12 - Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 4:17 - But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. So I was rescued from the lion's mouth.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 4:20 - Erastus remained at Corinth, and I left Trophimus, who was ill, at Miletus.
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 1:1 - Paul, a servant[fn] of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, for the sake of the faith of God's elect and their knowledge of the truth, which accords with godliness,
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 1:3 - and at the proper time manifested in his word[fn] through the preaching with which I have been entrusted by the command of God our Savior;
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 1:15 - To the pure, all things are pure, but to the defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled.
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 1:16 - They profess to know God, but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work.
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 2:1 - But as for you, teach what accords with sound[fn] doctrine.
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 3:4 - But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared,
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 3:9 - But avoid foolish controversies, genealogies, dissensions, and quarrels about the law, for they are unprofitable and worthless.
Unchecked Copy BoxTit 3:14 - And let our people learn to devote themselves to good works, so as to help cases of urgent need, and not be unfruitful.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhm 1:9 - yet for love's sake I prefer to appeal to you—I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner also for Christ Jesus—
Unchecked Copy BoxPhm 1:11 - (Formerly he was useless to you, but now he is indeed useful to you and to me.)
Unchecked Copy BoxPhm 1:14 - but I preferred to do nothing without your consent in order that your goodness might not be by compulsion but of your own accord.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhm 1:16 - no longer as a bondservant[fn] but more than a bondservant, as a beloved brother—especially to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxPhm 1:22 - At the same time, prepare a guest room for me, for I am hoping that through your prayers I will be graciously given to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 1:6 - And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says,
“Let all God's angels worship him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 1:8 - But of the Son he says,
“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever,
the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 1:11 - they will perish, but you remain;
they will all wear out like a garment,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 1:12 - like a robe you will roll them up,
like a garment they will be changed.[fn]
But you are the same,
and your years will have no end.”
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 1:13 - And to which of the angels has he ever said,
“Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet”?
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 2:8 - putting everything in subjection under his feet.” Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. At present, we do not yet see everything in subjection to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 2:9 - But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 3:4 - (For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.)
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 3:6 - but Christ is faithful over God's house as a son. And we are his house, if indeed we hold fast our confidence and our boasting in our hope.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 3:10 - Therefore I was provoked with that generation,
and said, ‘They always go astray in their heart;
they have not known my ways.'
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 3:17 - And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 3:18 - And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient?
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 4:13 - And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 4:15 - For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:8 - But if it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed, and its end is to be burned.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:9 - Though we speak in this way, yet in your case, beloved, we feel sure of better things—things that belong to salvation.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:11 - And we desire each one of you to show the same earnestness to have the full assurance of hope until the end,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 6:12 - so that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:2 - and to him Abraham apportioned a tenth part of everything. He is first, by translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then he is also king of Salem, that is, king of peace.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:3 - He is without father or mother or genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but resembling the Son of God he continues a priest forever.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:4 - See how great this man was to whom Abraham the patriarch gave a tenth of the spoils!
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:6 - But this man who does not have his descent from them received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:7 - It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:8 - In the one case tithes are received by mortal men, but in the other case, by one of whom it is testified that he lives.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:19 - (for the law made nothing perfect); but on the other hand, a better hope is introduced, through which we draw near to God.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:21 - but this one was made a priest with an oath by the one who said to him:
“The Lord has sworn
and will not change his mind,
‘You are a priest forever.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:24 - but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues forever.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 7:28 - For the law appoints men in their weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been made perfect forever.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 8:1 - Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 8:6 - But as it is, Christ[fn] has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 8:13 - In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:3 - Behind the second curtain was a second section[fn] called the Most Holy Place,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:5 - Above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:6 - These preparations having thus been made, the priests go regularly into the first section, performing their ritual duties,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:7 - but into the second only the high priest goes, and he but once a year, and not without taking blood, which he offers for himself and for the unintentional sins of the people.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:11 - But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come,[fn] then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation)
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:12 - he entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:21 - And in the same way he sprinkled with the blood both the tent and all the vessels used in worship.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:23 - Thus it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these rites, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:26 - for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 9:27 - And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:5 - Consequently, when Christ[fn] came into the world, he said,
“Sacrifices and offerings you have not desired,
but a body have you prepared for me;
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:12 - But when Christ[fn] had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:15 - And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:18 - Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:32 - But recall the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:33 - sometimes being publicly exposed to reproach and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:38 - but my righteous one shall live by faith,
and if he shrinks back,
my soul has no pleasure in him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 10:39 - But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:1 - Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:6 - And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:16 - But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:35 - Women received back their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, so that they might rise again to a better life.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 11:36 - Others suffered mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:6 - For the Lord disciplines the one he loves,
and chastises every son whom he receives.”
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:8 - If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:9 - Besides this, we have had earthly fathers who disciplined us and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to the Father of spirits and live?
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:10 - For they disciplined us for a short time as it seemed best to them, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:11 - For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:13 - and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 12:26 - At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Yet once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.”
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:16 - Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:19 - I urge you the more earnestly to do this in order that I may be restored to you the sooner.
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:20 - Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant,
Unchecked Copy BoxHeb 13:22 - I appeal to you, brothers,[fn] bear with my word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:4 - And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:6 - But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:9 - Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation,
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:10 - and the rich in his humiliation, because like a flower of the grass[fn] he will pass away.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:13 - Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:14 - But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:15 - Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:19 - Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger;
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:22 - But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 1:25 - But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:2 - For if a man wearing a gold ring and fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in,
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:3 - and if you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, “You sit here in a good place,” while you say to the poor man, “You stand over there,” or, “Sit down at my feet,”
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:6 - But you have dishonored the poor man. Are not the rich the ones who oppress you, and the ones who drag you into court?
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:9 - But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:10 - For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:11 - For he who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not murder.” If you do not commit adultery but do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:14 - What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him?
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:16 - and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good[fn] is that?
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:20 - Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless?
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:23 - and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a friend of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 2:25 - And in the same way was not also Rahab the prostitute justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way?
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 3:3 - If we put bits into the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we guide their whole bodies as well.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 3:8 - but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 3:14 - But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 3:17 - But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 3:18 - And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:6 - But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:7 - Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:11 - Do not speak evil against one another, brothers.[fn] The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:12 - There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 4:16 - As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxJas 5:12 - But above all, my brothers, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or by any other oath, but let your “yes” be yes and your “no” be no, so that you may not fall under condemnation.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:7 - so that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:8 - Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory,
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:12 - It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you, in the things that have now been announced to you through those who preached the good news to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, things into which angels long to look.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:20 - He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was made manifest in the last times for the sake of you
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 1:25 - but the word of the Lord remains forever.” And this word is the good news that was preached to you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 2:4 - As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious,
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 2:7 - So the honor is for you who believe, but for those who do not believe,
“The stone that the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone,”[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 2:9 - But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 2:10 - Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 2:14 - or to governors as sent by him to punish those who do evil and to praise those who do good.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 2:23 - When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten, but continued entrusting himself to him who judges justly.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 3:8 - Finally, all of you, have unity of mind, sympathy, brotherly love, a tender heart, and a humble mind.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 3:9 - Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 3:11 - let him turn away from evil and do good;
let him seek peace and pursue it.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 3:12 - For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are open to their prayer.
But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 3:14 - But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled,
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 3:15 - but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 3:18 - For Christ also suffered[fn] once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit,
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 4:6 - For this is why the gospel was preached even to those who are dead, that though judged in the flesh the way people are, they might live in the spirit the way God does.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 4:7 - The end of all things is at hand; therefore be self-controlled and sober-minded for the sake of your prayers.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 4:16 - Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name.
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 4:17 - For it is time for judgment to begin at the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God?
Unchecked Copy Box1Pe 5:5 - Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:5 - For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue,[fn] and virtue with knowledge,
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:6 - and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness,
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:7 - and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:13 - I think it right, as long as I am in this body,[fn] to stir you up by way of reminder,
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 1:15 - And I will make every effort so that after my departure you may be able at any time to recall these things.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 2:1 - But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 2:9 - then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials,[fn] and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment,
Unchecked Copy Box2Pe 2:10 - and especially those who indulge[fn] in the lust of defiling passion and despise authority. Bold and willful, they do not tremble as they blaspheme the glorious ones,
