nsb@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 God’s 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:2:14 @ 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:2:21 @ Joseph took the child and his mother to Israel.

nsb@Matthew:3:17 @ Then a voice from heaven said: »This is my Son whom I love and whom I have approved.«

nsb@Matthew:4:8 @ 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: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.

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: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:8:23 @ 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 Matthew’s 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: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: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:12:24 @ 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:12:45 @ »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 carpenter’s 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 Philip’s 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:18:34 @ »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 Jehovah’s 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@John:2:23 @ When he was in Jerusalem at the Passover feast, many saw the signs he did and expressed active faith in his name.

nsb@John:2:24 @ Jesus did not trust his security to them for he understood all men.

nsb@John:4:42 @ They told the woman: »We believe because of what you said and we heard him ourselves. We know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world!«

nsb@John:6:16 @ That evening his disciples went to the sea.

nsb@John:6:22 @ The next day the crowd stood by the side of the sea. Jesus entered the only boat while his disciples went away alone.

nsb@John:6:24 @ When the crowd saw that Jesus and his disciples were not there they got into the boats and traveled to Capernaum seeking Jesus.

nsb@John:6:27 @ »Do not work for food that perishes but for food that offers everlasting life. The Son of man will give you this food. The Father, even God, has set his seal upon him.«

nsb@John:6:29 @ Jesus answered: »This is the work of God, that you have an active faith in the one whom he has sent.«

nsb@John:6:41 @ The Jews complained about him. This is because he said ‘I am the bread that came down out of heaven.’

nsb@John:6:42 @ They said: »Is Jesus the son of Joseph? We know his father and mother. How does he now say, I came down out of heaven?«

nsb@John:6:50 @ »This is the bread that comes down out of heaven that a man may eat of it and not die.

nsb@John:6:65 @ He stated: »For this reason listen to what I say. No man can come to me, except it be given to him from the Father.«

nsb@John:6:66 @ After this many of his disciples returned to their old ways. They did not walk with him anymore.

nsb@John:7:3 @ His brothers said to him: »Leave here and go to Judea. That way your disciples also may see the works that you do.

nsb@John:7:31 @ Many in the crowd believed in him. They asked: »When the Christ comes will he do more signs than those this man has done?«

nsb@John:7:32 @ The Pharisees heard the crowd whispering these things concerning him. The chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to capture him.

nsb@John:7:35 @ The Jews said among themselves: »Where will this man go that we shall not find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

nsb@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered: »This man did not sin. Neither did his parents sin. The works of God should be made known in him.

nsb@John:9:8 @ The neighbors saw him afterwards. They knew he was a blind beggar. So they asked: Is this he who sat and begged?

nsb@John:9:15 @ The Pharisees asked him how he received his sight. He said to them: « He put clay on my eyes, I washed and now I see.«

nsb@John:9:16 @ Some of the Pharisees said: »This man is not from God, because he does not keep the Sabbath.« Others said: »How could a man that is a sinner perform such signs?« There was division among them.

nsb@John:9:18 @ The Jews did not believe that he had been blind and then received his sight. So they called his parents.

nsb@John:9:19 @ They asked the parents: »Is this your son? Was he born blind? How does he see now?«

nsb@John:9:20 @ His parents answered: »This is our son and he was born blind.

nsb@John:9:21 @ »We do not know how he now sees or who opened his eyes. Ask him. He is of age and he will speak for himself.«

nsb@John:9:24 @ So they called the man that was blind a second time, and said to him: »Give glory to God. We know that this man is a sinner.«

nsb@John:9:27 @ He answered them: »I told you before and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Would you also become his disciples?«

nsb@John:9:28 @ Then they spoke abusively to him: »You are his disciple! We are disciples of Moses.«

nsb@John:9:29 @ We know that God spoke to Moses. As for this man we do not know where he is from.

nsb@John:9:30 @ The man answered: »This certainly is a marvel that you do not know where he is from and yet he opened my eyes.«

nsb@John:9:31 @ »We know that God does not listen to sinners. If any man respects God and does his will, God listens to him.

nsb@John:9:33 @ »If this man were not from God, he could do nothing.

nsb@John:10:4 @ »When all of his own are out he leads them. The sheep follow him for they know his voice.

nsb@John:10:6 @ They did not understand this illustration Jesus spoke to them.

nsb@John:10:11 @ »I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

nsb@John:10:16 @ »I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I will also bring them. They will hear my voice and they will become one flock, one shepherd.

nsb@John:10:18 @ »No one takes it away from me, but I lay it down voluntarily. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it again. I have received this commandment from my Father.«

nsb@John:10:41 @ Many came to him and they said: »John indeed did not perform a single miracle. Yet everything John said about this man was true.«

nsb@John:11:1 @ A man named Lazarus was sick. He lived at Bethany where his sisters Mary and Martha lived.

nsb@John:11:2 @ This is the same Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair. It was her brother Lazarus who was sick.

nsb@John:11:4 @ When Jesus heard it he said: »This sickness will not end in death. It is for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified by it.«

nsb@John:11:7 @ After this he said to the disciples: »Let us go to Judea again.«

nsb@John:11:9 @ Jesus answered: »Are there not twelve hours in the day? If a man walks in the day he does not stumble because he sees the light of this world.

nsb@John:11:13 @ Jesus spoke of his death. They thought he spoke of taking rest in sleep.

nsb@John:11:16 @ Thomas, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples: »Let us also go that we may die with him.«

nsb@John:11:26 @ »Whoever lives and puts active faith in me will never die. Do you believe this?«

nsb@John:11:28 @ After she said this she went away and secretly called her sister Mary. She said: »The teacher is here and calls you.«

nsb@John:11:32 @ When Mary saw Jesus she fell down at his feet. She said: »Lord; if you had been here my brother would not have died.«

nsb@John:11:33 @ Jesus groaned in his spirit and was troubled when he saw her weeping and the Jews who came with her weeping.

nsb@John:11:37 @ Some of them said: »This man opened the eyes of the blind. Could he have prevented this man from dying?«

nsb@John:11:41 @ So they took away the stone. Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said: »Father, I thank you that you hear me.

nsb@John:11:44 @ He that was dead came out. He was bound hand and foot with grave-clothes and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus commanded them: »Unwrap him and let him go.«

nsb@John:11:47 @ The chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council. They asked what they should do. »This man does many signs and miracles.

nsb@John:11:51 @ He did not say this from his own understanding. As high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation.

nsb@John:11:54 @ Jesus did not walk openly among the Jews anymore. He departed into the wilderness of the nearby country. He and his disciples stayed at a city called Ephraim.

nsb@John:12:1 @ Six days before the Passover Jesus traveled to Bethany. This was where Lazarus lived. He was the man Jesus raised from the dead.

nsb@John:12:3 @ Mary took a pound of very precious ointment of pure nard and anointed the feet of Jesus. She wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the odor of the ointment.

nsb@John:12:5 @ »Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred danarii, and given to the poor?«

nsb@John:12:6 @ He did not say this because he cared for the poor. He was a thief. He had the moneybox and took away what was put in it.

nsb@John:12:11 @ This is because by reason of Lazarus many of the Jews believed in Jesus.

nsb@John:12:16 @ His disciples did not understand these things at first. However when Jesus was glorified they remembered the things that were written about him. They also remembered the things that had been done to him.

nsb@John:12:18 @ For this reason also the crowd met him, for they heard that he had performed this miracle.

nsb@John:12:25 @ »He that loves his life loses it; and he that detests his life in this world shall save it for everlasting life.

nsb@John:12:27 @ »I am troubled! What should I say? Father, save me out of this hour? It is for this purpose that I came to this hour! (Hebrews strkjv@5:7)

nsb@John:12:30 @ Jesus said: »This voice came for your sake and not for mine.

nsb@John:12:31 @ »Now judgment is on this world. Now the ruler of this world will be cast out.

nsb@John:12:33 @ He said this indicating the type of death he would experience.

nsb@John:12:34 @ The crowd answered him: »We have heard from the law that the Christ lives forever. Why do you say the Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?«

nsb@John:12:36 @ »While you have the light, exert active faith in the light, that you may become sons of light.« Jesus said this and then he departed and hid himself from them.

nsb@John:12:41 @ Isaiah said these things because he saw and spoke about his glory.

nsb@John:12:50 @ »I know that his commandment means everlasting life. Therefore I say the things the Father tells me to say.«

nsb@John:13:1 @ Jesus knew before the feast of the Passover that the time had come for him to leave this world and return to his Father. He loved his own who were in the world to the very end.

nsb@John:13:4 @ He got up from the meal and laid aside his garments. He wrapped a towel around his waist.

nsb@John:13:10 @ Jesus responded: »He that is bathed must wash his feet. He is clean everywhere and you are clean, but not all.«

nsb@John:13:12 @ After he washed their feet he put his outer garments on and sat down. He asked: »Do you know what I have done to you?

nsb@John:13:16 @ »Truly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his master. Neither is one that is sent greater than he that sent him.

nsb@John:13:18 @ »I do not speak about all of you. I know whom I have chosen! This way the scripture may be fulfilled: ‘He that eats my bread lifted up his heel against me.’«

nsb@John:13:21 @ After Jesus said this he was troubled in spirit and said: One of you will betray me.«

nsb@John:13:23 @ The disciple whom Jesus loved was leaning on his chest.

nsb@John:13:28 @ No man at the table knew for what purpose he spoke this to him.

nsb@John:14:10 @ »Do you not believe that I am with the Father and that the Father is with me? The words I say to you are not from me, but the Father dwells with me and does his works.

nsb@John:15:10 @ »If you obey my commandments you will remain in my love. I have obeyed my Father’s commandments and remain in his love.

nsb@John:15:12 @ »This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.

nsb@John:15:13 @ »No man has greater love then this that a man lay down his life for his friends.

nsb@John:15:20 @ »Remember the word I said to you. A servant is not greater than his master. If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they obeyed my word, they will obey yours also.

nsb@John:15:25 @ »This took place that the word written in the Law may be fulfilled: They hated me without a cause.

nsb@John:16:4 @ »I tell you these things so you will remember that I told you when the time comes. I did not tell this from the beginning because I was with you.

nsb@John:16:11 @ »And third, of judgment because the prince of this world has been judged.

nsb@John:16:17 @ Some of his disciples said to one another: »What is this he says, a little while, and you see me no more and again a little while and you will see me because I go to the Father?

nsb@John:16:18 @ »What is this that he says: A little while? We do not know what he says.«

nsb@John:16:29 @ His disciples said: »See now you speak plainly and use no figurative language.

nsb@John:16:30 @ »We are sure you know all things and have no need that any man ask you questions. Because of this we believe you came from God.«

nsb@John:17:1 @ Jesus spoke these things and lifted up his eyes to heaven. He said: »Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that the son may glorify you.

nsb@John:17:3 @ »This is everlasting life that they should have *deep, intimate knowledge of you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have commissioned. *

nsb@John:18:1 @ When Jesus finished his prayer he and his disciples crossed the Kedron winter stream to a garden.

nsb@John:18:2 @ Judas, who betrayed him, knew the place because Jesus went there frequently with his disciples.

nsb@John:18:10 @ Simon Peter drew the sword he had, struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.

nsb@John:18:17 @ The maid that kept the door asked Peter: »Are you also one of this man’s disciples?« He said: »I am not.«

nsb@John:18:19 @ The high priest asked Jesus about his disciples and about the things he taught.

nsb@John:18:22 @ When he said this one of the officers standing nearby struck Jesus with his hand, saying: »You answer the high priest!«

nsb@John:18:25 @ Simon Peter stood nearby warming himself. They asked him: »Are you also one of his disciples?« He denied it saying: »I am not.«

nsb@John:18:29 @ Pilate went to them and asked: »What accusation do you make against this man?«

nsb@John:18:30 @ They answered: »If this man were not an evildoer we would not deliver him to you.«

nsb@John:18:34 @ Jesus answered: »You say this about me. Or did others tell you it concerning me?«

nsb@John:18:36 @ Jesus answered: »My kingdom is not of this world! If my kingdom were of this world my servants would fight that I should not be delivered to the Jews. My kingdom is not from this domain.«

nsb@John:18:37 @ Pilate said: »Are you a king then?« Jesus answered: »As you say I am a king. I was born and came into the world for this purpose, that I should bear witness to the truth! Every one who is of the truth hears my voice.«

nsb@John:18:38 @ Pilate then asked: »What is truth?« After saying this, he went out again to the Jews and said to them: »I find no fault in him.

nsb@John:18:40 @ They cried out: »Not this man, but Barabbas. Barabbas was a robber.«

nsb@John:19:2 @ The soldiers braided a crown of thorns and put it on his head. They dressed him in a purple garment.

nsb@John:19:8 @ When Pilate heard this he was more afraid.

nsb@John:19:12 @ As a result of this Pilate sought to release him. The Jews cried out: »If you release this man you are not Caesar’s friend. Every one that makes himself a king speaks against Caesar.«

nsb@John:19:17 @ They took Jesus bearing his own stake to the place called the place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha.

nsb@John:19:20 @ This title was read by many of the Jews, for the place where Jesus was impaled was near the city. It was written in Hebrew, Latin and Greek.

nsb@John:19:23 @ After they impaled Jesus the soldiers took his garments and made four parts, one for each soldier. The coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

nsb@John:19:25 @ His mother stood by the stake of Jesus, and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.

nsb@John:19:26 @ Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved. He said to his mother, »Woman, look, your son!«

nsb@John:19:27 @ Then he said to the disciple, »Look, your mother!« That hour forward the disciple took her to his home.

nsb@John:19:29 @ A vessel full of vinegar was setting there. They put a sponge full of vinegar upon a hyssop branch and brought it to his mouth.

nsb@John:19:30 @ When Jesus received the vinegar, he said, »it is finished.« He bowed his head, and he stopped breathing.

nsb@John:19:33 @ When they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already so they did not break his legs.

nsb@John:19:34 @ The soldier with the spear pierced his side and suddenly blood and water came out.

nsb@John:19:35 @ He who saw testified and his testimony is true. He knows and he speaks truth that you also may believe.

nsb@John:19:40 @ They prepared the body of Jesus for burial. They bound it in linen cloths with spices. This was the custom of the Jews.

nsb@John:20:7 @ The napkin that was on his head was not with the linen clothes. It was rolled up by itself.

nsb@John:20:20 @ When he said this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples were glad, when they saw the Lord.

nsb@John:20:22 @ After he said this he breathed on them and said: »Receive Holy Spirit.

nsb@John:20:25 @ The other disciples therefore said to him: »We have seen the Lord.« He said: »Unless I feel the print of the nails in his hands and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.«

nsb@John:20:30 @ Jesus did many miracles in the presence of the disciples. They are not written in this book.

nsb@John:20:31 @ These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. By believing you may have life in his name.

nsb@John:21:7 @ That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter: »It is the Lord.« So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he wrapped his coat about him, and jumped into the sea.

nsb@John:21:14 @ This is the third time Jesus was seen by the disciples since he was raised from the dead.

nsb@John:21:19 @ Now this he spoke, signifying by what manner of death he should glorify God. After he spoke he said: »Follow me.«

nsb@John:21:20 @ Peter, turning about, saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following. He is the one who also leaned back on his breast at the supper, and said,« Lord, who is he that betrays you?«

nsb@John:21:21 @ Seeing this Peter said to Jesus: Lord, what shall this man do?

nsb@John:21:23 @ This expression went among the brethren, that that disciple should not die. Yet Jesus did not say that he should not die. He only said: »If I will that he stay until I come, what is that to you?«

nsb@John:21:24 @ This is the disciple that bears witness of these things, and wrote these things. That way we know that his witness is true.
