Matthew:1:2 @ Abraham was the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers.
nsb@Matthew:1:11 @ Josiah was the father of Jechoniah and his brothers. They lived at the time when the people were exiled to Babylon.
nsb@Matthew:1:18 @ The birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: His mother Mary had been promised to Joseph in marriage. But before they were married, Mary realized that she was pregnant by Holy Spirit.
nsb@Matthew:1:20 @ Joseph had this in mind when Gods angel appeared to him in a dream. The angel said to him: »Joseph, descendant of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. She is pregnant by Holy Spirit.
nsb@Matthew:1:21 @ »She will give birth to a son, and you will name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.«
nsb@Matthew:1:22 @ All this happened so that what God spoke through the prophet came true:
nsb@Matthew:1:24 @ When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of God had commanded him to do. He took Mary to be his wife.
nsb@Matthew:2:2 @ They asked: »Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and came to offer him praise.«
nsb@Matthew:2:3 @ King Herod was troubled when he heard this. Jerusalem was also troubled.
nsb@Matthew:2:5 @ »Bethlehem in Judea,« they answered. This is what the prophet wrote:
nsb@Matthew:2:11 @ They entered the house and saw the young child with his mother Mary. They bowed down and paid him homage. Then they opened their treasure chests and offered gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.
nsb@Matthew:2:13 @ When they left, the angel of God appeared to Joseph in a dream and said: »Herod is looking to kill the young child. Arise, take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you to leave.«
nsb@Matthew:2:14 @ Joseph took the child and his mother to Egypt.
nsb@Matthew:2:16 @ Herod saw that the astrologers tricked him and he was furious. He sent soldiers to kill all the boys two years old and younger in or near Bethlehem. This matched the time he learned from the astrologers.
nsb@Matthew:2:20 @ The angel told him: »Take the child and his mother and go to Israel. Those who tried to kill the child are dead.«
nsb@Matthew:2:21 @ Joseph took the child and his mother to Israel.
nsb@Matthew:2:22 @ When he heard that Archelaus succeeded his father, Herod, as king of Judea, Joseph feared going. Warned in a dream, he left for Galilee instead.
nsb@Matthew:2:23 @ He made his home in Nazareth. Thus the prophecy came true: »He will be called a Nazarene.«

nsb@Matthew:3:4 @ John wore clothes made from camels hair. He had a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
nsb@Matthew:3:11 @ »I baptize you with water because of your repentance. He that comes after me is mightier than I. He will baptize you with Holy Spirit and fire. I am not even good enough to carry his sandals.
nsb@Matthew:3:12 @ »His winnowing shovel is in his hand. He will clean his threshing floor and gather his wheat into a barn. He will then burn the husks in a fire that cannot be put out.«
nsb@Matthew:3:15 @ Jesus answered emphatically: »This is the proper way to do everything that God requires. This is the way it must be!«
nsb@Matthew:3:17 @ Then a voice from heaven said: »This is my Son whom I love and whom I have approved.«
nsb@Matthew:4:6 @ »If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down. The Scriptures say: God will give orders to his angels about you and they will hold you with their hands, so that not even your feet will strike the ground.«
nsb@Matthew:4:8 @ This time the Devil took Jesus to an extremely high mountain. He showed him all the kingdoms of the world with all their greatness.
nsb@Matthew:4:9 @ »I will give all this to you,« the Devil told Jesus, »if you kneel down and worship me.«
nsb@Matthew:4:17 @ From that time on Jesus preached this message: »Repent for the Kingdom of heaven is near.«
nsb@Matthew:4:18 @ Jesus walked on the shore of the Sea of Galilee. There he saw Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother. They were fishermen.
nsb@Matthew:4:21 @ He saw two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and John his brother. They were in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them.
nsb@Matthew:4:25 @ Because of this, large crowds followed him from Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and the land on the other side of the Jordan.
nsb@Matthew:5:1 @ Seeing great masses of people, he went up to the mountain. When he was seated his disciples came to him.
nsb@Matthew:5:2 @ He opened his mouth and taught them:
nsb@Matthew:5:22 @ »Now I tell you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court. Whoever speaks to his brother with words of contempt shall receive condemnation before the Sanhedrin. Curse your brother and you will be guilty enough to be destroyed by fire, with the burning trash, at the Valley of Hinnom, outside of Jerusalem.
nsb@Matthew:5:28 @ »However, I tell you that whoever looks at a woman with lustful thoughts commits adultery with her in his heart.
nsb@Matthew:5:31 @ »Again, it was said, Whoever gets rid of his wife has to give her a certificate of divorce.
nsb@Matthew:5:32 @ »I say to you that everyone divorcing his wife, except for the reason of fornication, makes her liable to commit adultery. And if she marries again, the man she marries also commits adultery.
nsb@Matthew:5:35 @ »Not by earth, for it is the footstool under His feet. Not by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.
nsb@Matthew:5:37 @ »Let your answer be Yes or No. Anything more than this is from the evil one.
nsb@Matthew:6:2 @ »Do not loudly announce it when you give to the poor. The hypocrites do this in the houses of worship and on the streets. They do this to be praised by men. Believe me, they have already been paid in full.
nsb@Matthew:6:11 @ »Give us this day our daily bread. (Matthew strkjv@6:34) (1 Timothy strkjv@6:8) (Proverbs strkjv@30:8) (Psalm strkjv@37:25)
nsb@Matthew:6:19 @ »Do not accumulate large amounts of wealth on earth. This is where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal.
nsb@Matthew:6:29 @ »I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was dressed like these.
nsb@Matthew:6:33 @ »Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things will be added to you.
nsb@Matthew:7:9 @ »Who among you, who would give his son a stone when he asks him for bread?
nsb@Matthew:7:16 @ »By their fruits you will know them. Do men get grapes from thorns or figs from thistles?
nsb@Matthew:7:24 @ »Everyone who hears my words, and does them is like a wise man that builds his house on a rock.
nsb@Matthew:7:26 @ »Every one who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand.
nsb@Matthew:8:3 @ He reached out his hand and touched him, saying: »I want to. Be made clean.« Right away his leprosy was cleansed.
nsb@Matthew:8:9 @ »I also am a man having authority and commanding soldiers. I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.«
nsb@Matthew:8:14 @ Jesus went to Peters house. He saw his wifes mother lying sick of a fever.
nsb@Matthew:8:20 @ Jesus replied: »Foxes have holes, and the birds of heaven have nests, but the Son of man has nowhere to lay his head.«
nsb@Matthew:8:21 @ One of his disciples said: »Lord, first allow me to go bury my father.«
nsb@Matthew:8:23 @ When he entered a boat, his disciples followed him.
nsb@Matthew:8:27 @ The disciples were in awe. They asked: »What kind of man is this, for even the winds and the sea obey him?«
nsb@Matthew:9:1 @ Jesus entered a boat and crossed over to his own city, on the other side of the lake.
nsb@Matthew:9:3 @ Some of the scribes said among themselves: »This man has no respect for God.«
nsb@Matthew:9:7 @ He arose, and departed to his house.
nsb@Matthew:9:9 @ Jesus moved on. He then saw Matthew seated at his work collecting taxes. He said to him: »Follow me.« He rose and followed him.
nsb@Matthew:9:10 @ Jesus was a dinner guest at Matthews house. Many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.
nsb@Matthew:9:11 @ When the Pharisees saw it, they asked his disciples: »Why does your Teacher eat with the tax collectors and sinners?«
nsb@Matthew:9:13 @ »You should learn what this means: I desire mercy, and not sacrifice; for I came, not to call the righteous, but sinners.«
nsb@Matthew:9:19 @ Jesus and his disciples got up and followed him.
nsb@Matthew:9:20 @ A woman who had a hemorrhage for twelve years came behind him. She touched the border of his garment.
nsb@Matthew:9:21 @ She said to herself: »If I touch his garment, I will be healed.«
nsb@Matthew:9:26 @ The news about this spread to all the land.
nsb@Matthew:9:30 @ Their eyes were opened. Jesus strictly warned them: »Do not let anyone know about this.«
nsb@Matthew:9:33 @ When the demon was cast out, the dumb man spoke. The crowd marveled, saying: »We have never seen anything like this in Israel!«
nsb@Matthew:9:37 @ Jesus said to his disciples: »The harvest is abundant, but the laborers are few.
nsb@Matthew:9:38 @ »Pray that the Lord of the harvest will send out workers into his harvest.«
nsb@Matthew:10:1 @ He called his twelve disciples. He gave them power to cast out unclean spirits and to heal all kinds of disease and sickness.
nsb@Matthew:10:2 @ The following are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;
nsb@Matthew:10:10 @ »Take no extra clothes, not even two coats, no extra shoes or walking stick for the laborer is worthy of his food.
nsb@Matthew:10:18 @ »You will be taken before governors and kings for my sake. This will serve as a testimony to them and to the people of the nations.
nsb@Matthew:10:23 @ »When they persecute you in this city, flee to the next. I tell you; before you have gone through all the cities of Israel the Son of man will come.
nsb@Matthew:10:24 @ »A disciple is not greater than his teacher, nor a servant his master.
nsb@Matthew:10:25 @ »It is enough for the disciple that he is like his teacher, and the servant like his master. If they called the master of the house Beelzebub, others of the household could also be called the same!
nsb@Matthew:10:35 @ »My coming will cause a separation. A man will be against his father and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
nsb@Matthew:10:36 @ »A mans enemies will be from his own family.
nsb@Matthew:10:38 @ »Anyone who does not pick up his stake and follow me is not worthy of me.
nsb@Matthew:10:39 @ »Whoever finds his life will lose it. Whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.
nsb@Matthew:10:42 @ »And whoever gives a drink of cold water to one of these little ones because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he will not lose his reward.«
nsb@Matthew:11:1 @ When Jesus finished instructing his twelve disciples, he left to teach and preach in their cities.
nsb@Matthew:11:2 @ While in prison, John heard news of what Christ was doing. He sent his disciples.
nsb@Matthew:11:10 @ »This is he of whom it is written: Behold, I send my messenger ahead of you. He will prepare the way for you.
nsb@Matthew:11:14 @ »If you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come.
nsb@Matthew:11:16 @ »Of what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their playmates.
nsb@Matthew:11:20 @ Then he denounced the cities where most of his mighty works were done, because they did not repent.
nsb@Matthew:11:23 @ »Will you, Capernaum, be exalted into heaven? You will go down into the grave. If the mighty works had been done in Sodom, which were done in you, it would have remained until this day.
nsb@Matthew:12:1 @ Jesus disciples were hungry. It was Sabbath day and yet Jesus and his disciples went through the grain fields plucking ears and eating them.
nsb@Matthew:12:3 @ He replied to them: »Have you read what David did when he and his companions were hungry?
nsb@Matthew:12:4 @ »He entered into the house of God, and he and his companions ate the showbread, which it was not lawful for them to eat. It was only lawful for the priests.
nsb@Matthew:12:7 @ »If you had known what this means, I desire mercy and not sacrifice, you would not have condemned the guiltless.
nsb@Matthew:12:11 @ He said to them: »Which of you having one sheep, if this sheep fell into a pit on the Sabbath day, will not get it and lift it out.
nsb@Matthew:12:15 @ Jesus was aware of this and withdrew from the place. Many followed him and were healed by him.
nsb@Matthew:12:17 @ This fulfilled what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet.
nsb@Matthew:12:19 @ »He will not quarrel, nor cry aloud. None will hear his voice in the streets.
nsb@Matthew:12:20 @ »He will break a bruised reed. He will quench smoking flax. This he will do until he sends forth judgment to victory.
nsb@Matthew:12:21 @ »The nations will hope in his name!«
nsb@Matthew:12:23 @ The crowds were amazed, and said: »Can this be the son of David?«
nsb@Matthew:12:24 @ When the Pharisees heard it, they said: »This man casts out demons by Beelzebub, the prince of the demons.«
nsb@Matthew:12:26 @ »If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How will his kingdom stand?
nsb@Matthew:12:29 @ »How can one enter into the house of a strong man and steal his things, except he first tie up the strong man? Then he can rob his house.
nsb@Matthew:12:32 @ »Whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him. But whoever speaks against Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is to come.

nsb@Matthew:12:41 @ »The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it. After all, they repented at the preaching of Jonah. Yet someone greater than Jonah is here.
nsb@Matthew:12:42 @ »The queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and condemn it. She came from the ends of the earth to hear the Wisdom of Solomon. Someone greater than Solomon is here!
nsb@Matthew:12:45 @ »Then it takes along seven other spirits more evil than itself. They enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first. It will also be like this with this evil generation.«
nsb@Matthew:12:46 @ While Jesus was yet speaking to the crowds, his mother and his brothers stood nearby. They wanted to speak to him.
nsb@Matthew:12:49 @ He stretched out his hand towards his disciples, and said: »Behold, my mother and my brothers!
nsb@Matthew:13:15 @ »The heart of this people is callous and dull. Their ears are plugged. They cannot hear. They closed their eyes and cannot see. They cannot see nor hear nor understand with their heart. They should turn around and I would heal them.
nsb@Matthew:13:19 @ »When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand, the evil one takes away that which was sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
nsb@Matthew:13:22 @ »He that was sown among thorns hears the word. The cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.
nsb@Matthew:13:24 @ He told another illustration, saying: »The kingdom of heaven is like a man that sowed good seed in his field.
nsb@Matthew:13:25 @ »While he slept, his enemy came and sowed weeds with the wheat, and went away.
nsb@Matthew:13:28 @ »He replied: An enemy did this. The servants offered to remove the weeds.
nsb@Matthew:13:31 @ In another illustration Jesus said: »The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man sowed in his field.
nsb@Matthew:13:36 @ Then he left the crowds and went into the house. His disciples gathered near him. They said: »Explain to us the illustration of the weeds in the field.«
nsb@Matthew:13:40 @ »The weeds are gathered up and burned with fire. It will be this way at the end of the age.
nsb@Matthew:13:41 @ »The Son of man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all who stumble others and commit lawlessness.
nsb@Matthew:13:52 @ And he said to them: »Every scribe who has been made a disciple to the kingdom of heaven is like a man that is a householder, who brings out of his treasure things new and old.«
nsb@Matthew:13:54 @ He went to his own country and taught in the synagogue. They were astonished and asked where this man got this wisdom and these mighty works.
nsb@Matthew:13:55 @ »Is this man the carpenters son? Is his mother called Mary? Are his brothers James and Joseph, Simon, and Judas?
nsb@Matthew:13:56 @ »Are his sisters all with us? Where did he get all these things?«
nsb@Matthew:13:57 @ They resented him. But Jesus responded to them: »A prophet is without honor in his own country, and in his own house.«
nsb@Matthew:14:2 @ He told his servants: »This is John the Baptist, raised from the dead. That explains the power working in him.«
nsb@Matthew:14:3 @ Herod locked John in prison to please Herodias, his brother Philips wife.
nsb@Matthew:14:9 @ The king was grieved. He gave his oath and many were watching so he commanded that it be done.
nsb@Matthew:14:11 @ His head was brought on a platter to the young lady. She in turn gave it to her mother.
nsb@Matthew:14:13 @ When Jesus heard it, he left in a boat to a secluded place. The crowds heard this and followed him on foot from the cities.
nsb@Matthew:14:15 @ Evening came and the disciples approached Jesus and said: »This place is desolate. Send the people away so they may go to the villages and buy themselves food.«
nsb@Matthew:14:31 @ Suddenly, Jesus put out his hand and took hold of him, and said: »You of little faith, why were you in doubt?«
nsb@Matthew:14:36 @ They wanted to touch his robe to be made well.
nsb@Matthew:15:3 @ His answer to them was in the form of a question: »Why do you go against the word of God in favor of your tradition?
nsb@Matthew:15:5 @ »You teach that a man should tell his father or mother that what he has that could help them, is given to God.
nsb@Matthew:15:6 @ »You say there is no need for him to give honor to his father. You have invalidated the word of God because of your tradition!
nsb@Matthew:15:23 @ He did not answer her. His disciples said to him: »Send her away; she keeps shouting at us.«
nsb@Matthew:15:30 @ Many people came to him. They brought those who were lame, crippled, blind, mute, and many other people. They laid them down at his feet and he healed them.
nsb@Matthew:15:32 @ Jesus called his disciples and said: »I feel compassion for the people, because they have remained with me now three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, for they might faint on the way.«
nsb@Matthew:15:33 @ The disciples replied: »Where would we get so many loaves in this desolate place to satisfy such a large crowd?«
nsb@Matthew:16:8 @ Hearing this, Jesus said: »You of little faith, why are you reasoning among yourselves about not having bread?
nsb@Matthew:16:13 @ Jesus traveled to parts of Caesarea Philippi. He asked his disciples: »Who do men say that the Son of man is?«
nsb@Matthew:16:17 @ Jesus answered him: »Bless you, Simon son of John. This knowledge came from my Father in heaven and not from man.
nsb@Matthew:16:18 @ »You are Peter, and on this rock-mass I will build my congregation. The entrance to the grave will not have power to stop it.
nsb@Matthew:16:21 @ From that time forward Jesus made it clear to his disciples how he would have to go to Jerusalem. He told them he would undergo much at the hands of the authorities, including the chief priests and scribes. He let them know he would be put to death. The third day he would come back from the dead.
nsb@Matthew:16:24 @ Then Jesus told his disciples: »If any man wants to follow me, let him deny himself, and take up his stake and follow me.
nsb@Matthew:16:25 @ »He who wants to save his life will lose it. He who is willing to lose his life for my sake will find it.
nsb@Matthew:16:26 @ »What will a man profit, if he gains the whole world, and gives up his life? What will a man give in exchange for his life?
nsb@Matthew:16:27 @ »The Son of man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels. He will then reward each man according to his deeds.
nsb@Matthew:16:28 @ »I tell you truly, there are some that stand here who will not experience death till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.«
nsb@Matthew:17:1 @ After six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother up into a high mountain alone.
nsb@Matthew:17:2 @ While they watched, Jesus appearance changed in their presence. His face was as bright as the sun and his clothes became as white as the light.
nsb@Matthew:17:5 @ While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them. A voice came out of the cloud, saying: »This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him.«
nsb@Matthew:17:10 @ His disciples asked him: »Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?«
nsb@Matthew:17:14 @ When they approached the people, a man fell to his knees before him, saying:
nsb@Matthew:17:20 @ He told them: »It was because of your lack of faith: Truly I say to you, if you have faith as small as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, move and it will move. Nothing will be impossible to you.«
nsb@Matthew:18:4 @ »He who humbles himself to become like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
nsb@Matthew:18:5 @ »Everyone who accepts this little child in my name accepts me.
nsb@Matthew:18:6 @ »He who causes one of my faithful little ones to stumble is in trouble. It would be better for him to end up in the deep sea with a great stone tied to his neck.
nsb@Matthew:18:15 @ »If your brother does wrong to you, go to him in private. Clearly explain his error between you and him. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother back.
nsb@Matthew:18:23 @ »The kingdom of heaven is like a king who went over his accounts with his servants.
nsb@Matthew:18:25 @ »He was not able to make payment. So his lord gave orders for him to be sold. His wife, sons, and daughters were all to be sold along with every possession. The money would be used for payment of what he owed.
nsb@Matthew:18:26 @ »So the servant fell on his face out of respect. He said: Lord, give me time to make payment and I will pay everything.
nsb@Matthew:18:32 @ »His lord sent for him, and said: Evil servant; I made you free of all that debt, because of your request to me.
nsb@Matthew:18:34 @ »His lord was angry and sent him to jail to be punished until he paid back all of his debt.
nsb@Matthew:19:3 @ Pharisees came to him. They tested him, asking: »Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason?«
nsb@Matthew:19:5 @ »For this reason, a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife. The two shall become one flesh.
nsb@Matthew:19:9 @ »I tell you, whoever divorces his wife, except for fornication, and marries another, commits adultery. And he who marries her when she is divorced, commits adultery.«
nsb@Matthew:19:10 @ The disciples said to him: »This being the case between a man and his wife, it is better not to marry.«
nsb@Matthew:19:11 @ He said: »This does not apply to everyone, only to those God has given it to.
nsb@Matthew:19:12 @ »For there are men who, from birth, were without sex. There are some who were made that way by men. There are others who have made themselves so for the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept this let him accept it.«
nsb@Matthew:19:13 @ Then some people brought little children to him. They wanted him to lay his hands on them and bless them. But the disciples tried to stop them.
nsb@Matthew:19:15 @ He put his hands on them, and then went on his way.
nsb@Matthew:19:23 @ Jesus said to his disciples: »Truly I tell you, it is hard for a man with much money to go into the kingdom of heaven.
nsb@Matthew:19:25 @ The disciples were greatly surprised when they heard this. »Who, then, may have salvation?« they asked.
nsb@Matthew:19:26 @ Jesus looked at them and said: »With men this is not possible. All things are possible with God!«
nsb@Matthew:19:28 @ Jesus replied: »Truly I say to you, when all things are made new, and the Son of man is seated in his glory, you who have come after me will be seated on twelve seats, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
nsb@Matthew:20:1 @ »The kingdom of heaven is like the master of a house, who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard.
nsb@Matthew:20:2 @ »He made an agreement with the workmen for a penny a day. Then he sent them into his vineyard.
nsb@Matthew:20:8 @ »When evening came, the lord of the vineyard said to his manager: Let the workers come and pay them from the last to the first.
nsb@Matthew:20:28 @ »The Son of man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom in payment for many.«
nsb@Matthew:21:4 @ This took place so that the words of the prophet might come true:
nsb@Matthew:21:10 @ When he came to Jerusalem, the people were excited. They asked: »Who is this?«
nsb@Matthew:21:11 @ Other people said: »This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.«
nsb@Matthew:21:15 @ The chief priests and the scribes saw the powerful works he did. They heard the children crying out in the Temple: »Glory to the son of David.« This made them very angry.
nsb@Matthew:21:19 @ He saw a fig tree along the side of the road. He went to it and saw nothing on it but leaves. He told it: »You will not bare fruit from this time forward, forever.« Immediately the fig tree became dry and dead.
nsb@Matthew:21:21 @ Jesus answered: »If you have faith and do not doubt, I make this promise to you: You will be able to do what was done to this fig tree. When you say to this mountain, be moved into the sea, it will be done.
nsb@Matthew:21:23 @ When he went into the Temple, the chief priests and those in authority over the people came to him while he was teaching. They asked: »By what authority do you do these things? Who gave you this authority?«
nsb@Matthew:21:29 @ »The first son said in answer, I will not. Later he changed his mind and went to work.
nsb@Matthew:21:31 @ »Which of the two pleased his father?« They replied: »The first.« Jesus said to them: »I tell you, tax collectors and prostitutes will go into the kingdom of God before you.«
nsb@Matthew:21:32 @ »John came to you in the way of righteousness and you did not believe him. Even the tax collectors and prostitutes believed him. When you saw this, you did not regret your sins and did not have faith in him.
nsb@Matthew:21:34 @ »When the time for the fruit came near, he sent his servants to the workmen, to get the fruit.
nsb@Matthew:21:35 @ »The workmen attacked his servants, striking one with a stone and killing the other.
nsb@Matthew:21:37 @ »Finally he sent his son to them, saying, Certainly they will respect my son.
nsb@Matthew:21:38 @ »When the workmen saw the son, they said, Let us put him to death and take his heritage, for someday he will own this property.
nsb@Matthew:21:42 @ Jesus said to them: »Have you read the Scriptures, The stone the builders rejected has been made the chief cornerstone of the building. This was Jehovahs doing, and it is wonderful in our eyes. (Isaiah strkjv@28:16)
nsb@Matthew:21:43 @ »For this reason I tell you, The kingdom of God will be taken away from you. It will be given to a nation producing fruit.
nsb@Matthew:21:44 @ »Any man falling on this stone will be broken. Any man having this stone fall on him will be crushed to dust.«
nsb@Matthew:21:45 @ When the chief priests and Pharisees heard his illustrations they realized he was talking about them.
nsb@Matthew:22:2 @ »The kingdom of heaven is like a king who gave a wedding feast for his son.
nsb@Matthew:22:3 @ »He sent out his servants to invite guests to the feast, but they would not come.
nsb@Matthew:22:5 @ »But they paid no attention and went about their business. One went to his farm and another went to his trade.
