Luke:11-12
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And it came to pass (
5633 ),
that ,
as he was (
5750 )
praying (
5740 )
in a certain place ,
when he ceased (
5668 ),
one of his disciples said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Lord ,
teach (
5657 )
us to pray (
5738 ),
as John also taught (
5656 )
his disciples .
*
And he said (
5627 )
unto them ,
When ye pray (
5741 ),
say (
5720 ),
Our Father which art in heaven ,
Hallowed be (
5682 )
thy name .
Thy kingdom come (
5628 ).
Thy will be done (
5676 ),
as in heaven ,
so in earth .
*
Give (
5720 )
us day by day our daily bread .
*
And forgive (
5628 )
us our sins ;
for we also forgive (
5719 )
every one that is indebted (
5723 )
to us .
And lead (
5661 )
us not into temptation ;
but deliver (
5663 )
us from evil .
*
And he said (
5627 )
unto them ,
Which of you shall have (
5692 )
a friend ,
and shall go (
5695 )
unto him at midnight ,
and say (
5632 )
unto him ,
Friend ,
lend (
5657 )
me three loaves ;
*
For a friend of mine in his journey is come (
5633 )
to me ,
and I have (
5719 )
nothing to set before (
5692 )
him ?
*
And he from within shall answer (
5679 )
and say (
5632 ),
Trouble (
5720 )
me not :
the door is now shut (
5769 ),
and my children are (
5748 )
with me in bed ;
I cannot (
5736 )
rise (
5631 )
and give (
5629 )
thee .
*
I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
Though he will not rise (
5685 )
and give (
5692 )
him ,
because he is (
5750 )
his friend ,
yet because of his importunity he will rise (
5631 )
and give (
5692 )
him as many as he needeth (
5719 ).
*
And I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
Ask (
5720 ),
and it shall be given (
5701 )
you ;
seek (
5720 ),
and ye shall find (
5692 );
knock (
5720 ),
and it shall be opened (
5691 )
unto you .
*
For every one that asketh (
5723 )
receiveth (
5719 );
and he that seeketh (
5723 )
findeth (
5719 );
and to him that knocketh (
5723 )
it shall be opened (
5691 ).
*
If a son shall ask (
5692 )
bread of any of you that is a father ,
will he give (
5692 )
him a stone ?
or if he ask a fish ,
will he for a fish give (
5692 )
him a serpent ?
*
Or if he shall ask (
5661 )
an egg ,
will he offer (
5692 )
him a scorpion ?
*
If ye then ,
being (
5723 )
evil ,
know (
5758 )
how to give (
5721 )
good gifts unto your children :
how much more shall your heavenly Father give (
5692 )
the Holy Spirit to them that ask (
5723 )
him ?
*
And he was (
5713 )
casting out (
5723 )
a devil ,
and it was (
5713 )
dumb .
And it came to pass (
5633 ),
when the devil was gone out (
5631 ),
the dumb spake (
5656 );
and the people wondered (
5656 ).
*
But some of them said (
5627 ),
He casteth out (
5719 )
devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils .
*
And others ,
tempting (
5723 )
him ,
sought (
5707 )
of him a sign from heaven .
*
But he ,
knowing (
5761 )
their thoughts ,
said (
5627 )
unto them ,
Every kingdom divided (
5685 )
against itself is brought to desolation (
5743 );
and a house divided against a house falleth (
5719 ).
*
If Satan also be divided (
5681 )
against himself ,
how shall his kingdom stand (
5701 )?
because ye say (
5719 )
that I cast out (
5721 )
devils through Beelzebub .
*
And if I by Beelzebub cast out (
5719 )
devils ,
by whom do your sons cast them out (
5719 )?
therefore shall they be (
5704 )
your judges .
*
But if I with the finger of God cast out (
5719 )
devils ,
no doubt the kingdom of God is come (
5656 )
upon you .
*
When a strong man armed (
5772 )
keepeth (
5725 )
his palace ,
his goods (
5723 )
are (
5748 )
in peace :
*
But when a stronger than he shall come upon him (
5631 ),
and overcome (
5661 )
him ,
he taketh (
5719 )
from him all his armour wherein he trusted (
5714 ),
and divideth (
5719 )
his spoils .
*
He that is (
5752 )
not with me is (
5748 )
against me :
and he that gathereth (
5723 )
not with me scattereth (
5719 ).
*
When the unclean spirit is gone (
5632 )
out of a man ,
he walketh (
5736 )
through dry places ,
seeking (
5723 )
rest ;
and finding (
5723 )
none ,
he saith (
5719 ),
I will return (
5692 )
unto my house whence I came out (
5627 ).
*
And when he cometh (
5631 ),
he findeth (
5719 )
it swept (
5772 )
and garnished (
5772 ).
*
Then goeth he (
5736 ),
and taketh (
5719 )
to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself ;
and they enter in (
5631 ),
and dwell (
5719 )
there :
and the last state of that man is (
5736 )
worse than the first .
*
And it came to pass (
5633 ),
as he spake (
5721 )
these things ,
a certain woman of the company lifted up (
5660 )
her voice ,
and said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Blessed is the womb that bare (
5660 )
thee ,
and the paps which thou hast sucked (
5656 ).
*
But he said (
5627 ),
Yea rather ,
blessed are they that hear (
5723 )
the word of God ,
and keep (
5723 )
it .
*
And when the people were gathered thick together (
5746 ),
he began (
5662 )
to say (
5721 ),
This is (
5748 )
an evil generation :
they seek (
5719 )
a sign ;
and there shall no sign be given (
5701 )
it ,
but the sign of Jonas the prophet .
*
For as Jonas was (
5633 )
a sign unto the Ninevites ,
so shall also the Son of man be (
5704 )
to this generation .
*
The queen of the south shall rise up (
5701 )
in the judgment with the men of this generation ,
and condemn (
5692 )
them :
for she came (
5627 )
from the utmost parts of the earth to hear (
5658 )
the wisdom of Solomon ;
and ,
behold (
5628 ),
a greater than Solomon is here .
*
The men of Nineve shall rise up (
5698 )
in the judgment with this generation ,
and shall condemn (
5692 )
it :
for they repented (
5656 )
at the preaching of Jonas ;
and ,
behold (
5628 ),
a greater than Jonas is here .
*
No man ,
when he hath lighted (
5660 )
a candle ,
putteth (
5719 )
it in a secret place ,
neither under a bushel ,
but on a candlestick ,
that they which come in (
5740 )
may see (
5725 )
the light .
*
The light of the body is (
5748 )
the eye :
therefore when thine eye is (
5753 )
single ,
thy whole body also is (
5748 )
full of light ;
but when thine eye is (
5753 )
evil ,
thy body also is full of darkness .
*
Take heed (
5720 )
therefore that the light which is in thee be (
5748 )
not darkness .
*
If thy whole body therefore be full of light ,
having (
5723 )
no part dark ,
the whole shall be (
5704 )
full of light ,
as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light (
5725 ).
*
And as he spake (
5658 ),
a certain Pharisee besought (
5707 )
him to dine (
5661 )
with him :
and he went in (
5631 ),
and sat down to meat (
5627 ).
*
And when the Pharisee saw (
5631 )
it ,
he marvelled (
5656 )
that he had not first washed (
5681 )
before dinner .
*
And the Lord said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Now do ye Pharisees make clean (
5719 )
the outside of the cup and the platter ;
but your inward part is full (
5719 )
of ravening and wickedness .
*
Ye fools ,
did not he that made (
5660 )
that which is without make (
5656 )
that which is within also ?
*
But rather give (
5628 )
alms of such things as ye have (
5752 );
and ,
behold (
5628 ),
all things are (
5748 )
clean unto you .
*
But woe unto you ,
Pharisees !
for ye tithe (
5719 )
mint and rue and all manner of herbs ,
and pass over (
5736 )
judgment and the love of God :
these ought ye (
5713 )
to have done (
5658 ),
and not to leave the other undone (
5721 ).
*
Woe unto you ,
Pharisees !
for ye love (
5719 )
the uppermost seats in the synagogues ,
and greetings in the markets .
*
Woe unto you ,
scribes and Pharisees ,
hypocrites !
for ye are (
5748 )
as graves which appear not ,
and the men that walk (
5723 )
over them are not aware (
5758 )
of them .
*
Then answered (
5679 )
one of the lawyers ,
and said (
5719 )
unto him ,
Master ,
thus saying (
5723 )
thou reproachest (
5719 )
us also .
*
And he said (
5627 ),
Woe unto you also ,
ye lawyers !
for ye lade (
5719 )
men with burdens grievous to be borne ,
and ye yourselves touch (
5719 )
not the burdens with one of your fingers .
*
Woe unto you !
for ye build (
5719 )
the sepulchres of the prophets ,
and your fathers killed (
5656 )
them .
*
Truly ye bear witness (
5719 )
that ye allow (
5719 )
the deeds of your fathers :
for they indeed killed (
5656 )
them ,
and ye build (
5719 )
their sepulchres .
*
Therefore also said (
5627 )
the wisdom of God ,
I will send (
5692 )
them prophets and apostles ,
and some of them they shall slay (
5692 )
and persecute (
5692 ):
*
That the blood of all the prophets ,
which was shed (
5746 )
from the foundation of the world ,
may be required (
5686 )
of this generation ;
*
From the blood of Abel unto the blood of Zacharias ,
which perished (
5642 )
between the altar and the temple :
verily I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
It shall be required (
5701 )
of this generation .
*
Woe unto you ,
lawyers !
for ye have taken away (
5656 )
the key of knowledge :
ye entered not in (
5627 )
yourselves ,
and them that were entering in (
5740 )
ye hindered (
5656 ).
*
And as he said (
5723 )
these things unto them ,
the scribes and the Pharisees began (
5662 )
to urge (
5721 )
him vehemently ,
and to provoke him to speak (
5721 )
of many things :
*
Laying wait for (
5723 )
him ,
and seeking (
5723 )
to catch (
5658 )
something out of his mouth ,
that they might accuse (
5661 )
him .
*
In the mean time ,
when there were gathered together (
5685 )
an innumerable multitude of people ,
insomuch that they trode (
5721 )
one upon another ,
he began (
5662 )
to say (
5721 )
unto his disciples first of all ,
Beware (
5720 )
ye of the leaven of the Pharisees ,
which is (
5748 )
hypocrisy .
*
For there is (
5748 )
nothing covered (
5772 ),
that shall not be revealed (
5701 );
neither hid ,
that shall not be known (
5701 ).
*
Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken (
5627 )
in darkness shall be heard (
5701 )
in the light ;
and that which ye have spoken (
5656 )
in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed (
5701 )
upon the housetops .
*
And I say (
5719 )
unto you my friends ,
Be not afraid (
5676 )
of them that kill (
5723 )
the body ,
and after that have (
5723 )
no more that they can do (
5658 ).
*
But I will forewarn (
5692 )
you whom ye shall fear (
5680 ):
Fear (
5676 )
him ,
which after he hath killed (
5658 )
hath (
5723 )
power to cast (
5629 )
into hell ;
yea ,
I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
Fear (
5676 )
him .
*
Are not five sparrows sold (
5743 )
for two farthings ,
and not one of them is (
5748 )
forgotten (
5772 )
before God ?
*
But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered (
5769 ).
Fear (
5737 )
not therefore :
ye are of more value (
5719 )
than many sparrows .
*
Also I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
Whosoever shall confess (
5661 )
me before men ,
him shall the Son of man also confess (
5692 )
before the angels of God :
*
But he that denieth (
5666 )
me before men shall be denied (
5701 )
before the angels of God .
*
And whosoever shall speak (
5692 )
a word against the Son of man ,
it shall be forgiven (
5701 )
him :
but unto him that blasphemeth (
5660 )
against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven (
5701 ).
*
And when they bring (
5725 )
you unto the synagogues ,
and unto magistrates ,
and powers ,
take ye no thought (
5720 )
how or what thing ye shall answer (
5667 ),
or what ye shall say (
5632 ):
*
For the Holy Ghost shall teach (
5692 )
you in the same hour what ye ought (
5748 )
to say (
5629 ).
*
And one of the company said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Master ,
speak (
5628 )
to my brother ,
that he divide (
5670 )
the inheritance with me .
*
And he said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Man ,
who made (
5656 )
me a judge or a divider over you ?
*
And he said (
5627 )
unto them ,
Take heed (
5720 ),
and beware (
5732 )
of covetousness :
for a mans life consisteth (
5748 )
not in the abundance (
5721 )
of the things which he possesseth (
5723 ).
*
And he spake (
5627 )
a parable unto them ,
saying (
5723 ),
The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully (
5656 ):
*
And he thought (
5711 )
within himself ,
saying (
5723 ),
What shall I do (
5661 ),
because I have (
5719 )
no room where to bestow (
5692 )
my fruits ?
*
And he said (
5627 ),
This will I do (
5692 ):
I will pull down (
5692 )
my barns ,
and build (
5692 )
greater ;
and there will I bestow (
5692 )
all my fruits and my goods .
*
And I will say (
5692 )
to my soul ,
Soul ,
thou hast (
5719 )
much goods laid up (
5740 )
for many years ;
take thine ease (
5732 ),
eat (
5628 ),
drink (
5628 ),
and be merry (
5744 ).
*
But God said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Thou fool ,
this night thy soul shall be required (
5719 )
of thee :
then whose shall those things be (
5704 ),
which thou hast provided (
5656 )?
*
So is he that layeth up treasure (
5723 )
for himself ,
and is not rich (
5723 )
toward God .
*
And he said (
5627 )
unto his disciples ,
Therefore I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
Take no thought (
5720 )
for your life ,
what ye shall eat (
5632 );
neither for the body ,
what ye shall put on (
5672 ).
*
The life is (
5748 )
more than meat ,
and the body is more than raiment .
*
Consider (
5657 )
the ravens :
for they neither sow (
5719 )
nor reap (
5719 );
which neither have (
5748 )
storehouse nor barn ;
and God feedeth (
5719 )
them :
how much more are ye better than (
5719 )
the fowls ?
*
And which of you with taking thought (
5723 )
can (
5736 )
add (
5629 )
to his stature one cubit ?
*
If ye then be not able to do (
5736 )
that thing which is least ,
why take ye thought (
5719 )
for the rest ?
*
Consider (
5657 )
the lilies how they grow (
5719 ):
they toil (
5719 )
not ,
they spin (
5719 )
not ;
and yet I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed (
5639 )
like one of these .
*
If then God so clothe (
5719 )
the grass ,
which (
5752 )
is to day in the field ,
and to morrow is cast (
5746 )
into the oven ;
how much more will he clothe you ,
O ye of little faith ?
*
And seek (
5720 )
not ye what ye shall eat (
5632 ),
or what ye shall drink (
5632 ),
neither be ye of doubtful mind (
5744 ).
*
For all these things do the nations of the world seek after (
5719 ):
and your Father knoweth (
5758 )
that ye have need (
5719 )
of these things .
*
But rather seek ye (
5720 )
the kingdom of God ;
and all these things shall be added (
5701 )
unto you .
*
Fear (
5737 )
not ,
little flock ;
for it is your Fathers good pleasure (
5656 )
to give (
5629 )
you the kingdom .
*
Sell (
5657 )
that ye have (
5723 ),
and give (
5628 )
alms ;
provide (
5657 )
yourselves bags which wax not old (
5746 ),
a treasure in the heavens that faileth not ,
where no thief approacheth (
5719 ),
neither moth corrupteth (
5719 ).
*
For where your treasure is (
5748 ),
there will your heart be (
5704 )
also .
*
Let your loins be (
5749 )
girded about (
5772 ),
and your lights burning (
5746 );
*
And ye yourselves like unto men that wait (
5740 )
for their lord ,
when he will return (
5692 )
from the wedding ;
that when he cometh (
5631 )
and knocketh (
5660 ),
they may open (
5661 )
unto him immediately .
*
Blessed are those servants ,
whom the lord when he cometh (
5631 )
shall find (
5692 )
watching (
5723 ):
verily I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
that he shall gird himself (
5698 ),
and make them to sit down to meat (
5692 ),
and will come forth (
5631 )
and serve (
5692 )
them .
*
And if he shall come (
5632 )
in the second watch ,
or come (
5632 )
in the third watch ,
and find (
5632 )
them so ,
blessed are (
5748 )
those servants .
*
And this know (
5720 ),
that if the goodman of the house had known (
5715 )
what hour the thief would come (
5736 ),
he would have watched (
5656 ),
and not have suffered (
5656 )
his house to be broken through (
5650 ).
*
Be (
5737 )
ye therefore ready also :
for the Son of man cometh (
5736 )
at an hour when ye think (
5719 )
not .
*
Then Peter said (
5627 )
unto him ,
Lord ,
speakest thou (
5719 )
this parable unto us ,
or even to all ?
*
And the Lord said (
5627 ),
Who then is (
5748 )
that faithful and wise steward ,
whom his lord shall make ruler (
5692 )
over his household ,
to give (
5721 )
them their portion of meat in due season ?
*
Blessed is that servant ,
whom his lord when he cometh (
5631 )
shall find (
5692 )
so doing (
5723 ).
*
Of a truth I say (
5719 )
unto you ,
that he will make him ruler (
5692 )
over all that he hath (
5723 ).
*
But and if that servant say (
5632 )
in his heart ,
My lord delayeth (
5719 )
his coming (
5738 );
and shall begin (
5672 )
to beat (
5721 )
the menservants and maidens ,
and to eat (
5721 )
and drink (
5721 ),
and to be drunken (
5745 );
*
The lord of that servant will come (
5692 )
in a day when he looketh not for (
5719 )
him ,
and at an hour when he is not aware (
5719 ),
and will cut him in sunder (
5692 ),
and will appoint (
5692 )
him his portion with the unbelievers .
*
And that servant ,
which knew (
5631 )
his lords will ,
and prepared (
5660 )
not himself ,
neither did (
5660 )
according to his will ,
shall be beaten (
5691 )
with many stripes .
*
But he that knew (
5631 )
not ,
and did commit (
5660 )
things worthy of stripes ,
shall be beaten (
5691 )
with few stripes .
For unto whomsoever much is given (
5681 ),
of him shall be much required (
5701 ):
and to whom men have committed (
5639 )
much ,
of him they will ask (
5692 )
the more .
*
I am come (
5627 )
to send (
5629 )
fire on the earth ;
and what will I (
5719 ),
if it be already kindled (
5681 )?
*
But I have (
5719 )
a baptism to be baptized with (
5683 );
and how am I straitened (
5743 )
till it be accomplished (
5686 )!
*
Suppose ye (
5719 )
that I am come (
5633 )
to give (
5629 )
peace on earth ?
I tell (
5719 )
you ,
Nay ;
but rather division :
*
For from henceforth there shall be (
5704 )
five in one house divided (
5772 ),
three against two ,
and two against three .
*
The father shall be divided (
5701 )
against the son ,
and the son against the father ;
the mother against the daughter ,
and the daughter against the mother ;
the mother in law against her daughter in law ,
and the daughter in law against her mother in law .
*
And he said (
5707 )
also to the people ,
When ye see (
5632 )
a cloud rise (
5723 )
out of the west ,
straightway ye say (
5719 ),
There cometh (
5736 )
a shower ;
and so it is (
5736 ).
*
And when ye see the south wind blow (
5723 ),
ye say (
5719 ),
There will be (
5704 )
heat ;
and it cometh to pass (
5736 ).
*
Ye hypocrites ,
ye can (
5758 )
discern (
5721 )
the face of the sky and of the earth ;
but how is it that ye do not discern (
5719 )
this time ?
*
Yea ,
and why even of yourselves judge ye (
5719 )
not what is right ?
*
When thou goest (
5719 )
with thine adversary to the magistrate ,
as thou art in the way ,
give (
5628 )
diligence that thou mayest be delivered (
5771 )
from him ;
lest he hale (
5661 )
thee to the judge ,
and the judge deliver (
5632 )
thee to the officer ,
and the officer cast (
5725 )
thee into prison .
*
I tell (
5719 )
thee ,
thou shalt not depart (
5632 )
thence ,
till thou hast paid (
5632 )
the very last mite .
*
There were present (
5713 )
at that season some that told (
5723 )
him of the Galilaeans ,
whose blood Pilate had mingled (
5656 )
with their sacrifices .
