Matthew:1:1 @The record of the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah, the son of David, the son of Abraham-
nasb@Matthew:1:2 @Abraham was the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers.
nasb@Matthew:1:3 @Judah was the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, Perez was the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram.
nasb@Matthew:1:4 @Ram was the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon.
nasb@Matthew:1:5 @Salmon was the father of Boaz by Rahab, Boaz was the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse.
nasb@Matthew:1:6 @Jesse was the father of David the king. David was the father of Solomon by Bathsheba who had been the wife of Uriah.
nasb@Matthew:1:7 @Solomon was the father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asa.
nasb@Matthew:1:8 @Asa was the father of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah.
nasb@Matthew:1:9 @Uzziah was the father of Jotham, Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah.
nasb@Matthew:1:10 @Hezekiah was the father of Manasseh, Manasseh the father of Amon, and Amon the father of Josiah.
nasb@Matthew:1:11 @Josiah became the father of Jeconiah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.
nasb@Matthew:1:12 @After the deportation to Babylon- Jeconiah became the father of Shealtiel, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel.
nasb@Matthew:1:13 @Zerubbabel was the father of Abihud, Abihud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor.
nasb@Matthew:1:14 @Azor was the father of Zadok, Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud.
nasb@Matthew:1:15 @Eliud was the father of Eleazar, Eleazar the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob.
nasb@Matthew:1:16 @Jacob was the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, by whom Jesus was born, who is called the Messiah.
nasb@Matthew:1:17 @So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; from David to the deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the deportation to Babylon to the Messiah, fourteen generations.
nasb@Matthew:1:18 @Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows- when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.
nasb@Matthew:1:19 @And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man and not wanting to disgrace her, planned to send her away secretly.
nasb@Matthew:1:20 @But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, " Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
nasb@Matthew:1:21" @She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins."
nasb@Matthew:1:22 @Now all this took place to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet-
nasb@Matthew:1:23" @ BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD AND SHALL BEAR A SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL," which translated means, " GOD WITH US."
nasb@Matthew:1:24 @And Joseph awoke from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took Mary as his wife,
nasb@Matthew:2:1 @but kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus.
nasb@Matthew:2:10 @When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy.
nasb@Matthew:2:11 @After coming into the house they saw the Child with Mary His mother; and they fell to the ground and worshiped Him. Then, opening their treasures, they presented to Him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
nasb@Matthew:2:12 @And having been warned by God in a dream not to return to Herod, the magi left for their own country by another way.
nasb@Matthew:2:13 @Now when they had gone, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, "Get up! Take the Child and His mother and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod is going to search for the Child to destroy Him."
nasb@Matthew:2:14 @So Joseph got up and took the Child and His mother while it was still night, and left for Egypt.
nasb@Matthew:2:15 @He remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet- " OUT OF EGYPT I CALLED MY SON."
nasb@Matthew:2:16 @Then when Herod saw that he had been tricked by the magi, he became very enraged, and sent and slew all the male children who were in Bethlehem and all its vicinity, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the magi.
nasb@Matthew:2:17 @Then what had been spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled-
nasb@Matthew:2:18" @ A VOICE WAS HEARD IN RAMAH, WEEPING AND GREAT MOURNING, RACHEL WEEPING FOR HER CHILDREN; AND SHE REFUSED TO BE COMFORTED, BECAUSE THEY WERE NO MORE."
nasb@Matthew:2:19 @But when Herod died, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, and said,
nasb@Matthew:2:21 @So Joseph got up, took the Child and His mother, and came into the land of Israel.
nasb@Matthew:2:10" @The axe is already laid at the root of the trees; therefore every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
nasb@Matthew:2:11" @As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
nasb@Matthew:2:12" @His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."
nasb@Matthew:2:13 @Then Jesus arrived from Galilee at the Jordan coming to John, to be baptized by him.
nasb@Matthew:2:14 @But John tried to prevent Him, saying, "I have need to be baptized by You, and do You come to me?"
nasb@Matthew:2:15 @But Jesus answering said to him, "Permit it at this time; for in this way it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he permitted Him.
nasb@Matthew:2:16 @After being baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and lighting on Him,
nasb@Matthew:2:17 @and behold, a voice out of the heavens said, " This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased."
nasb@Matthew:3:1 @Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
nasb@Matthew:3:10 @Then Jesus said to him, "Go, Satan! For it is written, ' YOU SHALL WORSHIP THE LORD YOUR GOD, AND SERVE HIM ONLY.'"
nasb@Matthew:3:11 @Then the devil left Him; and behold, angels came and began to minister to Him.
nasb@Matthew:3:12 @Now when Jesus heard that John had been taken into custody, He withdrew into Galilee;
nasb@Matthew:3:13 @and leaving Nazareth, He came and settled in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali.
nasb@Matthew:3:14 @This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet-
nasb@Matthew:3:15" @ THE LAND OF ZEBULUN AND THE LAND OF NAPHTALI, BY THE WAY OF THE SEA, BEYOND THE JORDAN, GALILEE OF THE GENTILES--
nasb@Matthew:3:16" @ THE PEOPLE WHO WERE SITTING IN DARKNESS SAW A GREAT LIGHT, AND THOSE WHO WERE SITTING IN THE LAND AND SHADOW OF DEATH, UPON THEM A LIGHT DAWNED."
nasb@Matthew:3:17 @From that time Jesus began to preach and say, " Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."
nasb@Matthew:3:18 @Now as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon who was called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
nasb@Matthew:3:19 @And He said to them, "Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men."
nasb@Matthew:3:21 @Going on from there He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and He called them.
nasb@Matthew:4:1 @When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain; and after He sat down, His disciples came to Him.
nasb@Matthew:4:10" @Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
nasb@Matthew:4:11" @Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.
nasb@Matthew:4:12" @Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
nasb@Matthew:4:13" @You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men.
nasb@Matthew:4:14" @You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden;
nasb@Matthew:4:15 @nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.
nasb@Matthew:4:16" @Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
nasb@Matthew:4:17" @Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill.
nasb@Matthew:4:18" @For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished.
nasb@Matthew:4:19" @Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
nasb@Matthew:4:21" @ You have heard that the ancients were told, ' YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT MURDER' and 'Whoever commits murder shall be liable to the court.'
nasb@Matthew:4:31" @It was said, ' WHOEVER SENDS HIS WIFE AWAY, LET HIM GIVE HER A CERTIFICATE OF DIVORCE';
nasb@Matthew:4:41" @Whoever forces you to go one mile, go with him two.
nasb@Matthew:4:10 @' Your kingdom come. Your will be done, On earth as it is in heaven.
nasb@Matthew:4:11 @' Give us this day our daily bread.
nasb@Matthew:4:12 @'And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
nasb@Matthew:4:13 @'And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil. [For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.]'
nasb@Matthew:4:14" @ For if you forgive others for their transgressions, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
nasb@Matthew:4:15" @But if you do not forgive others, then your Father will not forgive your transgressions.
nasb@Matthew:4:16" @ Whenever you fast, do not put on a gloomy face as the hypocrites do, for they neglect their appearance so that they will be noticed by men when they are fasting. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full.
nasb@Matthew:4:17" @But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face
nasb@Matthew:4:18 @so that your fasting will not be noticed by men, but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.
nasb@Matthew:4:19" @ Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.
nasb@Matthew:4:21 @for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
nasb@Matthew:4:31" @Do not worry then, saying, 'What will we eat?' or 'What will we drink?' or 'What will we wear for clothing?'
nasb@Matthew:4:10" @Or if he asks for a fish, he will not give him a snake, will he?
nasb@Matthew:4:11" @If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask Him!
nasb@Matthew:4:12" @In everything, therefore, treat people the same way you want them to treat you, for this is the Law and the Prophets.
nasb@Matthew:4:13" @ Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it.
nasb@Matthew:4:14" @For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
nasb@Matthew:4:15" @Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves.
nasb@Matthew:4:16" @You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they?
nasb@Matthew:4:17" @So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit.
nasb@Matthew:4:18" @A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit.
nasb@Matthew:4:19" @ Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
nasb@Matthew:4:21" @ Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.
nasb@Matthew:5:1 @When Jesus came down from the mountain, large crowds followed Him.
nasb@Matthew:5:10 @Now when Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those who were following, "Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith with anyone in Israel.
nasb@Matthew:5:11" @I say to you that many will come from east and west, and recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven;
nasb@Matthew:5:12 @but the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."
nasb@Matthew:5:13 @And Jesus said to the centurion, "Go; it shall be done for you as you have believed." And the servant was healed that very moment.
nasb@Matthew:5:14 @When Jesus came into Peter's home, He saw his mother-in-law lying sick in bed with a fever.
nasb@Matthew:5:15 @He touched her hand, and the fever left her; and she got up and waited on Him.
nasb@Matthew:5:16 @When evening came, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were ill.
nasb@Matthew:5:17 @This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet- " HE HIMSELF TOOK OUR INFIRMITIES AND CARRIED AWAY OUR DISEASES."
nasb@Matthew:5:18 @Now when Jesus saw a crowd around Him, He gave orders to depart to the other side of the sea.
nasb@Matthew:5:19 @Then a scribe came and said to Him, "Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go."
nasb@Matthew:5:21 @Another of the disciples said to Him, "Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father."
nasb@Matthew:5:31 @The demons began to entreat Him, saying, "If You are going to cast us out, send us into the herd of swine."
nasb@Matthew:6:1 @Getting into a boat, Jesus crossed over the sea and came to His own city.
nasb@Matthew:6:10 @Then it happened that as Jesus was reclining at the table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and were dining with Jesus and His disciples.
nasb@Matthew:6:11 @When the Pharisees saw this, they said to His disciples, " Why is your Teacher eating with the tax collectors and sinners?"
nasb@Matthew:6:12 @But when Jesus heard this, He said, "It is not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick.
nasb@Matthew:6:13" @But go and learn what this means- ' I DESIRE COMPASSION, AND NOT SACRIFICE,' for I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners."
nasb@Matthew:6:14 @Then the disciples of John came to Him, asking, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast, but Your disciples do not fast?"
nasb@Matthew:6:15 @And Jesus said to them, "The attendants of the bridegroom cannot mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them, can they? But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast.
nasb@Matthew:6:16" @But no one puts a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch pulls away from the garment, and a worse tear results.
nasb@Matthew:6:17" @Nor do people put new wine into old wineskins; otherwise the wineskins burst, and the wine pours out and the wineskins are ruined; but they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved."
nasb@Matthew:6:18 @While He was saying these things to them, a synagogue official came and bowed down before Him, and said, "My daughter has just died; but come and lay Your hand on her, and she will live."
nasb@Matthew:6:19 @Jesus got up and began to follow him, and so did His disciples.
nasb@Matthew:6:21 @for she was saying to herself, "If I only touch His garment, I will get well."
nasb@Matthew:6:31 @But they went out and spread the news about Him throughout all that land.
nasb@Matthew:7:1 @Jesus summoned His twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every kind of disease and every kind of sickness.
nasb@Matthew:7:10 @or a bag for your journey, or even two coats, or sandals, or a staff; for the worker is worthy of his support.
nasb@Matthew:7:11" @And whatever city or village you enter, inquire who is worthy in it, and stay at his house until you leave that city.
nasb@Matthew:7:12" @As you enter the house, give it your greeting.
nasb@Matthew:7:13" @If the house is worthy, give it your blessing of peace. But if it is not worthy, take back your blessing of peace.
nasb@Matthew:7:14" @Whoever does not receive you, nor heed your words, as you go out of that house or that city, shake the dust off your feet.
nasb@Matthew:7:15" @Truly I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
nasb@Matthew:7:16" @ Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves.
nasb@Matthew:7:17" @But beware of men, for they will hand you over to the courts and scourge you in their synagogues;
nasb@Matthew:7:18 @and you will even be brought before governors and kings for My sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.
nasb@Matthew:7:19" @ But when they hand you over, do not worry about how or what you are to say; for it will be given you in that hour what you are to say.
nasb@Matthew:7:21" @ Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
nasb@Matthew:7:31" @So do not fear; you are more valuable than many sparrows.
nasb@Matthew:7:41" @ He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.
nasb@Matthew:8:1 @When Jesus had finished giving instructions to His twelve disciples, He departed from there to teach and preach in their cities.
nasb@Matthew:8:10" @This is the one about whom it is written, ' BEHOLD, I SEND MY MESSENGER AHEAD OF YOU, WHO WILL PREPARE YOUR WAY BEFORE YOU.'
nasb@Matthew:8:11" @Truly I say to you, among those born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptist! Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
nasb@Matthew:8:12" @ From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and violent men take it by force.
nasb@Matthew:8:13" @For all the prophets and the Law prophesied until John.
nasb@Matthew:8:14" @And if you are willing to accept it, John himself is Elijah who was to come.
nasb@Matthew:8:15" @ He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
nasb@Matthew:8:16" @But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the market places, who call out to the other children,
nasb@Matthew:8:17 @and say, 'We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn.'
nasb@Matthew:8:18" @For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ' He has a demon!'
nasb@Matthew:8:19" @The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' Yet wisdom is vindicated by her deeds."
nasb@Matthew:8:21" @ Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles had occurred in Tyre and Sidon which occurred in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
nasb@Matthew:9:1 @At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath, and His disciples became hungry and began to pick the heads of grain and eat.
nasb@Matthew:9:10 @And a man was there whose hand was withered. And they questioned Jesus, asking, " Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?"--so that they might accuse Him.
nasb@Matthew:9:11 @And He said to them, " What man is there among you who has a sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will he not take hold of it and lift it out?
nasb@Matthew:9:12" @ How much more valuable then is a man than a sheep! So then, it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath."
nasb@Matthew:9:13 @Then He said to the man, "Stretch out your hand!" He stretched it out, and it was restored to normal, like the other.
nasb@Matthew:9:14 @But the Pharisees went out and conspired against Him, as to how they might destroy Him.
nasb@Matthew:9:15 @But Jesus, aware of this, withdrew from there. Many followed Him, and He healed them all,
nasb@Matthew:9:16 @and warned them not to tell who He was.
nasb@Matthew:9:17 @This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet-
nasb@Matthew:9:18" @ BEHOLD, MY SERVANT WHOM I HAVE CHOSEN; MY BELOVED IN WHOM MY SOUL is WELL-PLEASED; I WILL PUT MY SPIRIT UPON HIM, AND HE SHALL PROCLAIM JUSTICE TO THE GENTILES.
nasb@Matthew:9:19" @ HE WILL NOT QUARREL, NOR CRY OUT; NOR WILL ANYONE HEAR HIS VOICE IN THE STREETS.
nasb@Matthew:9:21" @ AND IN HIS NAME THE GENTILES WILL HOPE."
nasb@Matthew:9:31" @ Therefore I say to you, any sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven people, but blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven.
nasb@Matthew:9:41" @ The men of Nineveh will stand up with this generation at the judgment, and will condemn it because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.
nasb@Matthew:10:1 @That day Jesus went out of the house and was sitting by the sea.
nasb@Matthew:10:2 @And large crowds gathered to Him, so He got into a boat and sat down, and the whole crowd was standing on the beach.
nasb@Matthew:10:3 @And He spoke many things to them in parables, saying, "Behold, the sower went out to sow;
nasb@Matthew:10:4 @and as he sowed, some seeds fell beside the road, and the birds came and ate them up.
nasb@Matthew:10:5" @Others fell on the rocky places, where they did not have much soil; and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of soil.
nasb@Matthew:10:6" @But when the sun had risen, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
nasb@Matthew:10:7" @Others fell among the thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them out.
nasb@Matthew:10:8" @And others fell on the good soil and yielded a crop, some a hundredfold, some sixty, and some thirty.
nasb@Matthew:10:9" @ He who has ears, let him hear."
nasb@Matthew:10:10 @And the disciples came and said to Him, "Why do You speak to them in parables?"
nasb@Matthew:10:11 @Jesus answered them, " To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been granted.
nasb@Matthew:10:12" @ For whoever has, to him more shall be given, and he will have an abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has shall be taken away from him.
nasb@Matthew:10:13" @Therefore I speak to them in parables; because while seeing they do not see, and while hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.
nasb@Matthew:10:14" @In their case the prophecy of Isaiah is being fulfilled, which says, ' YOU WILL KEEP ON HEARING, BUT WILL NOT UNDERSTAND; YOU WILL KEEP ON SEEING, BUT WILL NOT PERCEIVE;
nasb@Matthew:10:15 @FOR THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE HAS BECOME DULL, WITH THEIR EARS THEY SCARCELY HEAR, AND THEY HAVE CLOSED THEIR EYES, OTHERWISE THEY WOULD SEE WITH THEIR EYES, HEAR WITH THEIR EARS, AND UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEART AND RETURN, AND I WOULD HEAL THEM.'
nasb@Matthew:10:16" @ But blessed are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear.
nasb@Matthew:10:17" @For truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.
nasb@Matthew:10:18" @ Hear then the parable of the sower.
nasb@Matthew:10:19" @When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is the one on whom seed was sown beside the road.
nasb@Matthew:10:20" @The one on whom seed was sown on the rocky places, this is the man who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy;
nasb@Matthew:10:21 @yet he has no firm root in himself, but is only temporary, and when affliction or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he falls away.
nasb@Matthew:10:22" @And the one on whom seed was sown among the thorns, this is the man who hears the word, and the worry of the world and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
nasb@Matthew:10:23" @And the one on whom seed was sown on the good soil, this is the man who hears the word and understands it; who indeed bears fruit and brings forth, some a hundredfold, some sixty, and some thirty."
nasb@Matthew:10:24 @Jesus presented another parable to them, saying, " The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field.
nasb@Matthew:10:25" @But while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went away.
nasb@Matthew:10:26" @But when the wheat sprouted and bore grain, then the tares became evident also.
nasb@Matthew:10:27" @The slaves of the landowner came and said to him, 'Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?'
nasb@Matthew:10:28" @And he said to them, 'An enemy has done this!' The slaves said to him, 'Do you want us, then, to go and gather them up?'
nasb@Matthew:10:29" @But he said, 'No; for while you are gathering up the tares, you may uproot the wheat with them.
nasb@Matthew:10:30 @'Allow both to grow together until the harvest; and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, "First gather up the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them up; but gather the wheat into my barn."'"
nasb@Matthew:10:31 @He presented another parable to them, saying, " The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field;
nasb@Matthew:10:32 @and this is smaller than all other seeds, but when it is full grown, it is larger than the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that THE BIRDS OF THE AIR come and NEST IN ITS BRANCHES."
nasb@Matthew:10:33 @He spoke another parable to them, " The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three pecks of flour until it was all leavened."
nasb@Matthew:10:34 @All these things Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables, and He did not speak to them without a parable.
nasb@Matthew:10:35 @This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet- " I WILL OPEN MY MOUTH IN PARABLES; I WILL UTTER THINGS HIDDEN SINCE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD."
nasb@Matthew:10:36 @Then He left the crowds and went into the house. And His disciples came to Him and said, " Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field."
nasb@Matthew:10:37 @And He said, "The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man,
nasb@Matthew:10:38 @and the field is the world; and as for the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the tares are the sons of the evil one;
nasb@Matthew:10:39 @and the enemy who sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is the end of the age; and the reapers are angels.
nasb@Matthew:10:40" @So just as the tares are gathered up and burned with fire, so shall it be at the end of the age.
nasb@Matthew:10:41" @ The Son of Man will send forth His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all stumbling blocks, and those who commit lawlessness,
nasb@Matthew:10:42 @and will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
nasb@Matthew:10:43" @ Then THE RIGHTEOUS WILL SHINE FORTH AS THE SUN in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
nasb@Matthew:10:44" @ The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid again; and from joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
nasb@Matthew:10:45" @Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking fine pearls,
nasb@Matthew:10:46 @and upon finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.
nasb@Matthew:10:47" @Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet cast into the sea, and gathering fish of every kind;
nasb@Matthew:10:48 @and when it was filled, they drew it up on the beach; and they sat down and gathered the good fish into containers, but the bad they threw away.
nasb@Matthew:10:49" @So it will be at the end of the age; the angels will come forth and take out the wicked from among the righteous,
nasb@Matthew:10:50 @and will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
nasb@Matthew:10:51" @Have you understood all these things?" They said to Him, "Yes."
nasb@Matthew:10:52 @And Jesus said to them, "Therefore every scribe who has become a disciple of the kingdom of heaven is like a head of a household, who brings out of his treasure things new and old."
nasb@Matthew:10:53 @When Jesus had finished these parables, He departed from there.
nasb@Matthew:10:54 @He came to His hometown and began teaching them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, "Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?
nasb@Matthew:10:55" @Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not His mother called Mary, and His brothers, James and Joseph and Simon and Judas?
nasb@Matthew:10:56" @And His sisters, are they not all with us? Where then did this man get all these things?"
nasb@Matthew:10:57 @And they took offense at Him. But Jesus said to them, " A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his own household."
nasb@Matthew:10:58 @And He did not do many miracles there because of their unbelief.
nasb@Matthew:11:1 @At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the news about Jesus,
nasb@Matthew:11:2 @and said to his servants, " This is John the Baptist; he has risen from the dead, and that is why miraculous powers are at work in him."
nasb@Matthew:11:3 @For when Herod had John arrested, he bound him and put him in prison because of Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip.
nasb@Matthew:11:4 @For John had been saying to him, " It is not lawful for you to have her."
nasb@Matthew:11:5 @Although Herod wanted to put him to death, he feared the crowd, because they regarded John as a prophet.
nasb@Matthew:11:6 @But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod,
nasb@Matthew:11:7 @so much that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked.
nasb@Matthew:11:8 @Having been prompted by her mother, she said, "Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist."
nasb@Matthew:11:9 @Although he was grieved, the king commanded it to be given because of his oaths, and because of his dinner guests.
nasb@Matthew:11:10 @He sent and had John beheaded in the prison.
nasb@Matthew:11:11 @And his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.
nasb@Matthew:11:12 @His disciples came and took away the body and buried it; and they went and reported to Jesus.
nasb@Matthew:11:13 @Now when Jesus heard about John, He withdrew from there in a boat to a secluded place by Himself; and when the people heard of this, they followed Him on foot from the cities.
nasb@Matthew:11:14 @When He went ashore, He saw a large crowd, and felt compassion for them and healed their sick.
nasb@Matthew:11:15 @When it was evening, the disciples came to Him and said, "This place is desolate and the hour is already late; so send the crowds away, that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves."
nasb@Matthew:11:16 @But Jesus said to them, "They do not need to go away; you give them something to eat!"
nasb@Matthew:11:17 @They said to Him, "We have here only five loaves and two fish."
nasb@Matthew:11:18 @And He said, "Bring them here to Me."
nasb@Matthew:11:19 @Ordering the people to sit down on the grass, He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up toward heaven, He blessed the food, and breaking the loaves He gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds,
nasb@Matthew:11:20 @and they all ate and were satisfied. They picked up what was left over of the broken pieces, twelve full baskets.
nasb@Matthew:11:21 @There were about five thousand men who ate, besides women and children.
nasb@Matthew:11:22 @Immediately He made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of Him to the other side, while He sent the crowds away.
nasb@Matthew:11:23 @After He had sent the crowds away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray; and when it was evening, He was there alone.
nasb@Matthew:11:24 @But the boat was already a long distance from the land, battered by the waves; for the wind was contrary.
nasb@Matthew:11:25 @And in the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea.
nasb@Matthew:11:26 @When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified, and said, "It is a ghost!" And they cried out in fear.
nasb@Matthew:11:27 @But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, " Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid."
nasb@Matthew:11:28 @Peter said to Him, "Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water."
nasb@Matthew:11:29 @And He said, "Come!" And Peter got out of the boat, and walked on the water and came toward Jesus.
nasb@Matthew:11:30 @But seeing the wind, he became frightened, and beginning to sink, he cried out, "Lord, save me!"
nasb@Matthew:11:31 @Immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and took hold of him, and said to him, " You of little faith, why did you doubt?"
nasb@Matthew:11:32 @When they got into the boat, the wind stopped.
nasb@Matthew:11:33 @And those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, "You are certainly God's Son!"
nasb@Matthew:11:34 @When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret.
nasb@Matthew:11:35 @And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent word into all that surrounding district and brought to Him all who were sick;
nasb@Matthew:11:36 @and they implored Him that they might just touch the fringe of His cloak; and as many as touched it were cured.![[pBiblx2]](/img/menu.png)
