wmth@Matthew:1:1 @ The Genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

wmth@Matthew:1:6 @ Jesse of David–the King. David (by Uriah's widow) was the father of Solomon;

wmth@Matthew:1:7 @ Solomon of Rehoboam; Rehoboam of Abijah; Abijah of Asa;

wmth@Matthew:1:12 @ After the Removal to Babylon Jeconiah had a son Shealtiel; Shealtiel was the father of Zerubbabel;

wmth@Matthew:1:20 @ But while he was contemplating this step, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, »Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to bring home your wife Mary, for she is with child through the Holy Spirit.

wmth@Matthew:1:21 @ She will give birth to a Son, and you are to call His name JESUS for He it is who will save His People from their sins.«

wmth@Matthew:1:25 @ but did not live with her until she had given birth to a son. The child's name he called JESUS.

wmth@Matthew:2:3 @ Reports of this soon reached the king, and greatly agitated not only him but all the people of Jerusalem.

wmth@Matthew:2:4 @ So he assembled all the High Priests and Scribes of the people, and anxiously asked them where the Christ was to be born.

wmth@Matthew:2:5 @ »At Bethlehem in Judaea,« they replied; »for so it stands written in the words of the Prophet,

wmth@Matthew:2:11 @ So they entered the house; and when they saw the babe with His mother Mary, they prostrated themselves and did Him homage, and opening their treasure-chests offered gifts to Him–gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

wmth@Matthew:2:14 @ So Joseph roused himself and took the babe and His mother by night and departed into Egypt.

wmth@Matthew:2:16 @ Then Herod, finding that the Magi had trifled with him, was furious, and sent and massacred all the boys under two years of age, in Bethlehem and all its neighbourhood, according to the date he had so carefully ascertained from the Magi.

wmth@Matthew:2:21 @ So he roused himself and took the child and His mother and came into the land of Israel.

wmth@Matthew:3:10 @ And already the axe is lying at the root of the trees, so that every tree which does not produce good fruit will quickly be hewn down and thrown into the fire.

wmth@Matthew:3:15 @ »Let it be so on this occasion,« Jesus replied; »for so we ought to fulfil every religious duty.« Then he consented;

wmth@Matthew:3:17 @ while a voice came from Heaven, saying, »This is My Son, the dearly loved, in whom is My delight.«

wmth@Matthew:4:3 @ So the Tempter came and said, »If you are the Son of God, command these stones to turn into loaves.«

wmth@Matthew:4:6 @ and said, »If you are God's Son, throw yourself down; for it is written,

wmth@Matthew:4:12 @ Now when Jesus heard that John was thrown into prison, He withdrew into Galilee,

wmth@Matthew:4:20 @ So they immediately left their nets and followed Him. As He went further on,

wmth@Matthew:4:21 @ He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zabdi and his brother John, in the boat with their father Zabdi mending their nets; and He called them.

wmth@Matthew:5:9 @ »Blessed are the peacemakers, for it is they who will be recognized as sons of God.«

wmth@Matthew:5:12 @ Be joyful and triumphant, because your reward is great in the Heavens; for so were the Prophets before you persecuted.«

wmth@Matthew:5:16 @ Just so let your light shine before all men, in order that they may see your holy lives and may give glory to your Father who is in Heaven.

wmth@Matthew:5:18 @ Solemnly I tell you that until Heaven and earth pass away, not one iota or smallest detail will pass away from the Law until all has taken place.

wmth@Matthew:5:25 @ Come to terms without delay with your opponent while you are yet with him on the way to the court; for fear he should obtain judgement from the magistrate against you, and the magistrate should give you in custody to the officer and you be thrown into prison.

wmth@Matthew:5:26 @ I solemnly tell you that you will certainly not be released till you have paid the very last farthing.

wmth@Matthew:5:31 @ »It was also said, «

wmth@Matthew:5:32 @ But I tell you that every man who puts away his wife except on the ground of unfaithfulness causes her to commit adultery, and whoever marries her when so divorced commits adultery.

wmth@Matthew:5:40 @ If any one wishes to go to law with you and to deprive you of your under garment, let him take your outer one also.

wmth@Matthew:5:45 @ that so you may become true sons of your Father in Heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the wicked as well as the good, and sends rain upon those who do right and those who do wrong.

wmth@Matthew:6:2 @ `When you give in charity, never blow a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and streets in order that their praises may be sung by men. I solemnly tell you that they already have their reward.

wmth@Matthew:6:5 @ »And when praying, you must not be like the hypocrites. They are fond of standing and praying in the synagogues or at the corners of the wider streets, in order that men may see them. I solemnly tell you that they already have their reward.«

wmth@Matthew:6:10 @ let Thy kingdom come; let Thy will be done, as in Heaven so on earth;

wmth@Matthew:6:12 @ and forgive us our shortcomings, as we also have forgiven those who have failed in their duty towards us;

wmth@Matthew:6:14 @ »For if you forgive others their offences, your Heavenly Father will forgive you also;«

wmth@Matthew:6:16 @ »When any of you fast, never assume gloomy looks as the hypocrites do; for they disfigure their faces in order that it may be evident to men that they are fasting. I solemnly tell you that they already have their reward.«

wmth@Matthew:6:21 @ For where your wealth is, there also will your heart be.

wmth@Matthew:6:25 @ For this reason I charge you not to be over-anxious about your lives, inquiring what you are to eat or what you are to drink, nor yet about your bodies, inquiring what clothes you are to put on. Is not the life more precious than its food, and the body than its clothing?

wmth@Matthew:6:26 @ Look at the birds which fly in the air: they do not sow or reap or store up in barns, but your Heavenly Father feeds them: are not you of much greater value than they?

wmth@Matthew:6:28 @ And why be anxious about clothing? Learn a lesson from the wild lilies. Watch their growth. They neither toil nor spin,

wmth@Matthew:6:29 @ and yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his magnificence could array himself like one of these.

wmth@Matthew:6:30 @ And if God so clothes the wild herbage which to-day flourishes and to-morrow is thrown into the oven, is it not much more certain that He will clothe you, you men of little faith?

wmth@Matthew:7:9 @ What man is there among you, who if his son shall ask him for bread will offer him a stone?

wmth@Matthew:7:10 @ Or if the son shall ask him for a fish will offer him a snake?

wmth@Matthew:7:12 @ Everything, therefore, be it what it may, that you would have men do to you, do you also the same to them; for in this the Law and the Prophets are summed up.

wmth@Matthew:7:17 @ Just so every good tree produces good fruit, but a poisonous tree produces bad fruit.

wmth@Matthew:7:18 @ A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor a poisonous tree good fruit.

wmth@Matthew:7:20 @ So by their fruits at any rate, you will easily recognize them.

wmth@Matthew:8:3 @ So Jesus put out His hand and touched him, and said, »I am willing: be cleansed.« Instantly he was cleansed from his leprosy;

wmth@Matthew:8:8 @ »Sir,« replied the Captain, »I am not a fit person to receive you under my roof: merely say the word, and my servant will be cured.

wmth@Matthew:8:9 @ For I myself am also under authority, and have soldiers under me. To one I say `Go,' and he goes, to another `Come,' and he comes, and to my slave `Do this or that,' and he does it.«

wmth@Matthew:8:10 @ Jesus listened to this reply, and was astonished, and said to the people following Him, »I solemnly tell you that in no Israelite have I found faith as great as this.

wmth@Matthew:8:13 @ And Jesus said to the Captain, »Go, and just as you have believed, so be it for you.« And the servant recovered precisely at that time.

wmth@Matthew:8:20 @ »Foxes have holes,« replied Jesus, »and birds have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.«

wmth@Matthew:8:24 @ But suddenly there arose a great storm on the Lake, so that the waves threatened to engulf the boat; but He was asleep.

wmth@Matthew:8:25 @ So they came and woke Him, crying, »Master, save us, we are drowning!«

wmth@Matthew:8:26 @ »Why are you so easily frightened,« He replied, »you men of little faith?« Then He rose and reproved the winds and the waves, and there was a perfect calm;

wmth@Matthew:8:28 @ On His arrival at the other side, in the country of the Gadarenes, there met Him two men possessed by demons, coming from among the tombs: they were so dangerously fierce that no one was able to pass that way.

wmth@Matthew:8:29 @ They cried aloud, »What hast Thou to do with us, Thou Son of God? Hast Thou come here to torment us before the time?«

wmth@Matthew:8:30 @ Now at some distance from them a vast herd of swine were feeding.

wmth@Matthew:8:31 @ So the demons entreated Him. »If Thou drivest us out,« they said, »send us into the herd of swine.«

wmth@Matthew:8:34 @ So at once the whole population came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they besought Him to leave their country.

wmth@Matthew:9:3 @ »Such language is impious,« said some of the Scribes among themselves.

wmth@Matthew:9:6 @ But, to prove to you that the Son of Man has authority on earth to pardon sins« –He then says to the paralytic, »Rise, and take up your bed and go home.«

wmth@Matthew:9:16 @ No one ever mends an old cloak with a patch of newly woven cloth. Otherwise, the patch put on would tear away some of the old, and a worse hole would be made.

wmth@Matthew:9:19 @ And Jesus rose and followed him, as did also His disciples.

wmth@Matthew:9:27 @ As Jesus passed on, two blind men followed Him, shouting and saying, »Pity us, Son of David.«

wmth@Matthew:9:29 @ So He touched their eyes and said, »According to your faith let it be to you.«

wmth@Matthew:10:2 @ Now the names of the twelve Apostles were these: first, Simon called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James the son of Zabdi, and his brother John;

wmth@Matthew:10:3 @ Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax-gatherer, James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;

wmth@Matthew:10:4 @ Simon the Cananaean, and Judas the Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.

wmth@Matthew:10:11 @ »Whatever town or village you enter, inquire for some good man; and make his house your home till you leave the place.«

wmth@Matthew:10:15 @ I solemnly tell you that it will be more endurable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of Judgement than for that town.

wmth@Matthew:10:23 @ Whenever they persecute you in one town, escape to the next; for I solemnly tell you that you will not have gone the round of all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

wmth@Matthew:10:28 @ »And do not fear those who kill the body, but cannot kill the soul; but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna.«

wmth@Matthew:10:32 @ »Every man who acknowledges me before men I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in Heaven.«

wmth@Matthew:10:33 @ But whoever disowns me before men I also will disown before my Father who is in Heaven.

wmth@Matthew:10:37 @ Any one who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and any one who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;

wmth@Matthew:10:42 @ And whoever gives one of these little ones even a cup of cold water to drink because he is a disciple, I solemnly tell you that he will not lose his reward.«

wmth@Matthew:11:2 @ Now John had heard in prison about the Christ's doings, and he sent some of his disciples to inquire:

wmth@Matthew:11:3 @ »Are you the Coming One, or is it a different person that we are to expect?«

wmth@Matthew:11:11 @ »I solemnly tell you that among all of woman born no greater has ever been raised up than John the Baptist; yet one who is of lower rank in the Kingdom of the Heavens is greater than he.«

wmth@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they exclaim, `See this man! –given to gluttony and tippling, and a friend of tax-gatherers and notorious sinners!' And yet Wisdom is vindicated by her actions.«

wmth@Matthew:11:23 @ And thou, Capernaum, shalt thou be exalted even to Heaven? Even to Hades shalt thou descend. For had the mighty works been done in Sodom which have been done in thee, it would have remained until now.

wmth@Matthew:11:24 @ Only I tell you all, that it will be more endurable for the land of Sodom on the day of Judgement than for thee.«

wmth@Matthew:11:27 @ »All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one fully knows the Son except the Father, nor does any one fully know the Father except the Son and all to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him.«

wmth@Matthew:11:29 @ Take my yoke upon you and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

wmth@Matthew:12:8 @ For the Son of Man is the Lord of the Sabbath.«

wmth@Matthew:12:13 @ Then He said to the man, »Stretch out your arm.« And he stretched it out, and it was restored quite sound like the other.

wmth@Matthew:12:22 @ At that time a demoniac was brought to Him, blind and dumb; and He cured him, so that the dumb man could speak and see.

wmth@Matthew:12:23 @ And the crowds of people were all filled with amazement and said, »Can this be the Son of David?«

wmth@Matthew:12:25 @ Knowing their thoughts He said to them, »Every kingdom in which civil war has raged suffers desolation; and every city or house in which there is internal strife will be brought low.

wmth@Matthew:12:32 @ And whoever shall speak against the Son of Man may obtain forgiveness; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, neither in this nor in the coming age shall he obtain forgiveness.«

wmth@Matthew:12:33 @ »Either grant the tree to be wholesome and its fruit wholesome, or the tree poisonous and its fruit poisonous; for the tree is known by its fruit.

wmth@Matthew:12:38 @ Then He was accosted by some of the Scribes and of the Pharisees who said, »Teacher, we wish to see a sign given by you.«

wmth@Matthew:12:40 @ For just as so will the Son of Man be three days in the heart of the earth.

wmth@Matthew:12:42 @ The Queen of the south will awake at the Judgement together with the present generation, and will condemn it; because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and mark! there is One greater than Solomon here.

wmth@Matthew:12:43 @ »No sooner however has the foul spirit gone out of the man, then he roams about in places where there is no water, seeking rest but finding none.

wmth@Matthew:12:45 @ Then he goes and brings back with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they come in and dwell there; and in the end that man's condition becomes worse than it was at first. So will it be also with the present wicked generation.«

wmth@Matthew:12:47 @ So some one told Him, »Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, and desire to speak to you.«

wmth@Matthew:13:3 @ He then spoke many things to them in figurative language. »The sower goes out,« He said, »to sow.

wmth@Matthew:13:4 @ As he sows, some of the seed falls by the way-side, and the birds come and peck it up.

wmth@Matthew:13:5 @ Some falls on rocky ground, where it has but scanty soil. It quickly shows itself above ground, because it has no depth of earth;

wmth@Matthew:13:7 @ Some falls among the thorns; but the thorns spring up and stifle it.

wmth@Matthew:13:8 @ But a portion falls upon good ground, and gives a return, some a hundred for one, some sixty, some thirty.

wmth@Matthew:13:13 @ I speak to them in figurative language for this reason, that while looking they do not see, and while hearing they neither hear nor understand.

wmth@Matthew:13:17 @ For I solemnly tell you that many Prophets and holy men have longed to see the sights you see, and have not seen them, and to hear the words you hear, and have not heard them.

wmth@Matthew:13:18 @ »To you then I will explain the parable of the Sower.«

wmth@Matthew:13:19 @ When a man hears the Message concerning the Kingdom and does not understand it, the Evil one comes and catches away what has been sown in his heart. This is he who has received the seed by the road-side.

wmth@Matthew:13:24 @ Another parable He put before them. »The Kingdom of the Heavens,« He said, »may be compared to a man who has sown good seed in his field,

wmth@Matthew:13:25 @ but during the night his enemy comes, and over the first seed he sows darnel among the wheat, and goes away.

wmth@Matthew:13:26 @ But when the blade shoots up and the grain is formed, then appears the darnel also.

wmth@Matthew:13:27 @ So the farmer's men come and ask him, »`Sir, was it not good seed that you sowed on your land? Where then does the darnel come from?'

wmth@Matthew:13:28 @ `Some enemy has done this,' he said. »`Shall we go, and collect it?' the men inquire.

wmth@Matthew:13:31 @ Another parable He put before them. »The Kingdom of the Heavens,« He said, »is like a mustard-seed, which a man takes and sows in his ground.

wmth@Matthew:13:32 @ It is the smallest of all seeds, and yet when full-grown it is larger than any herb and forms a tree, so that the birds come and build in its branches.«

wmth@Matthew:13:36 @ When He had dismissed the people and had returned to the house, His disciples came to Him with the request, »Explain to us the parable of the darnel sown in the field.«

wmth@Matthew:13:37 @ »The sower of the good seed,« He replied, »is the Son of Man;

wmth@Matthew:13:38 @ the field is the world; the good seed–these are the sons of the Kingdom; the darnel, the sons of the Evil one.

wmth@Matthew:13:39 @ The enemy who sows the darnel is; the harvest is the Close of the Age; the reapers are the angels.

wmth@Matthew:13:40 @ As then the darnel is collected together and burnt up with fire, so will it be at the Close of the Age.

wmth@Matthew:13:41 @ The Son of Man will commission His angels, and they will gather out of His Kingdom all causes of sin and all who violate His laws;

wmth@Matthew:13:47 @ »Again the Kingdom of the Heavens is like a draw-net let down into the sea, which encloses fish of all sorts.«

wmth@Matthew:13:49 @ So will it be at the Close of the Age. The angels will go forth and separate the wicked from among the righteous,

wmth@Matthew:13:54 @ And He came into His own country and proceeded to teach in their synagogue, so that they were filled with astonishment and exclaimed, »Where did he obtain such wisdom, and these wondrous powers?

wmth@Matthew:13:55 @ Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? And are not his brothers, James, Joseph, Simon and Judah?

wmth@Matthew:13:57 @ So they turned angrily away from Him. But Jesus said to them, »There is no prophet left without honour except in his own country and among his own family.«

wmth@Matthew:14:3 @ For Herod had arrested John, and had put him in chains, and imprisoned him, for the sake of Herodias his brother Philip's wife,

wmth@Matthew:14:6 @ But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced before all the company, and so pleased Herod

wmth@Matthew:14:8 @ So she, instigated by her mother, said, »Give me here on a dish the head of John the Baptist.«

wmth@Matthew:14:10 @ and he sent and beheaded John in the prison.

wmth@Matthew:14:14 @ So Jesus went out and saw an immense multitude, and felt compassion for them, and cured those of them who were out of health.

wmth@Matthew:14:15 @ But when evening was come, the disciples came to Him and said, »This is an uninhabited place, and the best of the day is now gone; send the people away to go into the villages and buy something to eat.«

wmth@Matthew:14:16 @ »They need not go away,« replied Jesus; »you yourselves must give them something to eat.«

wmth@Matthew:14:20 @ So all ate, and were fully satisfied. The broken portions that remained over they gathered up, filling twelve baskets.

wmth@Matthew:14:23 @ When He had done this, He climbed the hill to pray in solitude. Night came on, and he was there alone.

wmth@Matthew:14:32 @ So they climbed into the boat, and the wind lulled;

wmth@Matthew:14:33 @ and the men on board fell down before him and said, »You are indeed God's Son.«

wmth@Matthew:14:35 @ and the men of the place, recognizing Him, sent word into all the country round. So they brought all the sick to Him,

wmth@Matthew:14:36 @ and they entreated Him that they might but touch the tassel of His outer garment; and all who did so were restored to perfect health.

wmth@Matthew:15:6 @ he shall be absolved from honouring his father'; and so you have abrogated God's Word for the sake of your tradition.

wmth@Matthew:15:14 @ Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind; and if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into some pit.«

wmth@Matthew:15:22 @ Here a Canaanitish woman of the district came out and persistently cried out, »Sir, Son of David, pity me; my daughter is cruelly harassed by a demon.«

wmth@Matthew:15:27 @ »Be it so, Sir,« she said, »for even the dogs eat the scraps which fall from their masters' tables.«

wmth@Matthew:15:30 @ Soon great crowds came to Him, bringing with them those who were crippled in feet or hands, blind or dumb, and many besides, and they hastened to lay them at His feet. And He cured them,

wmth@Matthew:15:31 @ so that the people were amazed to see the dumb speaking, the maimed with their hands perfect, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they gave the glory to the God of Israel.

wmth@Matthew:15:33 @ »Where can we,« asked the disciples, »get bread enough in this remote place to satisfy so vast a multitude?«

wmth@Matthew:15:35 @ So He bade all the people sit down on the ground,

wmth@Matthew:16:7 @ they reasoned among themselves, saying, »It is because we have not brought any bread.«

wmth@Matthew:16:8 @ Jesus perceived this and said, »Why are you reasoning among yourselves, you men of little faith, because you have no bread?

wmth@Matthew:16:13 @ When He arrived in the neighbourhood of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus questioned His disciples. »Who do people say that the Son of Man is?« He asked.

wmth@Matthew:16:14 @ »Some say John the Baptist,« they replied; »others Elijah; others Jeremiah or one of the Prophets.«

wmth@Matthew:16:16 @ »You,« replied Simon Peter, »are the Christ, the Son of the ever-living God.«

wmth@Matthew:16:24 @ Then Jesus said to His disciples, »If any one desires to follow me, let him renounce self and take up his cross, and so be my follower.

wmth@Matthew:16:27 @ For the Son of Man is soon to come in the glory of the Father with His angels, and then will He requite every man according to his actions.

wmth@Matthew:16:28 @ I solemnly tell you that some of those who are standing here will certainly not taste death till they have seen the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom.«

wmth@Matthew:17:1 @ Six day later, Jesus took with Him Peter and the brothers James and John, and brought them up a high mountain to a solitary place.

wmth@Matthew:17:5 @ He was still speaking when a luminous cloud spread over them; and a voice was heard from within the cloud, which said, »This is My Son dearly beloved, in whom is My delight. Listen to Him.«

wmth@Matthew:17:8 @ So they looked up, and saw no one but Jesus.

wmth@Matthew:17:9 @ As they were descending the mountain, Jesus laid a command upon them. »Tell no one,« He said, »of the sight you have seen till the Son of Man has risen from among the dead.«

wmth@Matthew:17:12 @ But I tell you that he has already come, and they did not recognize him, but dealt with him as they chose. And before long the Son of Man will be treated by them in a similar way.«

wmth@Matthew:17:14 @ When they had returned to the people, there came to Him a man who fell on his knees before Him and besought Him.

wmth@Matthew:17:15 @ »Sir,« he said, »have pity on my son, for he is an epileptic and is very ill. Often he falls into the fire and often into the water.

wmth@Matthew:17:20 @ »Because your faith is so small,« He replied; »for I solemnly declare to you that if you have faith like a mustard-seed, you shall say to this mountain, `Remove from this place to that,' and it will remove; and nothing shall be impossible to you.

wmth@Matthew:17:22 @ As they were travelling about in Galilee, Jesus said to them, »The Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men;

wmth@Matthew:18:2 @ So He called a young child to Him, and, bidding him stand in the midst of them,

wmth@Matthew:18:3 @ said, »In solemn truth I tell you that unless you turn and become like little children, you will in no case be admitted into the Kingdom of the Heavens.

wmth@Matthew:18:8 @ If your hand or your foot is causing you to fall into sin, cut it off and away with it. It is better for you to enter into Life crippled in hand or foot than to remain in possession of two sound hands or feet but be thrown into the fire of the Ages.

wmth@Matthew:18:13 @ And if he succeeds in finding it, in solemn truth I tell you that he rejoices over it more than he does over the ninety-nine that have not gone astray.

wmth@Matthew:18:14 @ Just so it is not the will of your Father in Heaven that one of these little ones should be lost.

wmth@Matthew:18:18 @ I solemnly tell you that whatever you as a Church bind on earth will in Heaven be held as bound, and whatever you loose on earth will in Heaven be held to be loosed.

wmth@Matthew:18:19 @ I also solemnly tell you that if two of you here on earth agree together concerning anything whatever that they shall ask, the boon will come to them from my Father who is in Heaven.

wmth@Matthew:18:23 @ »For this reason the Kingdom of the Heavens may be compared to a king who determined to have a settlement of accounts with his servants.«

wmth@Matthew:18:24 @ But as soon as he began the settlement, one was brought before him who owed 10,000 talents,

wmth@Matthew:18:25 @ and was unable to pay. So his master ordered that he and his wife and children and everything that he had should be sold, and payment be made.

wmth@Matthew:18:28 @ But no sooner had that servant gone out, than he met with one of his fellow servants who owed him 100 shillings; and seizing him by the throat and nearly strangling him he exclaimed, `Pay me all you owe.'«

wmth@Matthew:18:30 @ »He would not, however, but went and threw him into prison until he should pay what was due.«

wmth@Matthew:18:33 @ ought not you also to have had pity on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?'

wmth@Matthew:18:34 @ »So his master, greatly incensed, handed him over to the jailers until he should pay all he owed him.«

wmth@Matthew:19:3 @ Then came some of the Pharisees to Him to put Him to the proof by the question, »Has a man a right to divorce his wife whenever he chooses?«

wmth@Matthew:19:7 @ »Why then,« said they, »did Moses command the husband to give her `a written notice of divorce,' and so put her away?«

wmth@Matthew:19:8 @ »Moses,« He replied, »in consideration of the hardness of your nature permitted you to put away your wives, but it has not been so from the beginning.

wmth@Matthew:19:9 @ And I tell you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except her unfaithfulness, and marries another woman, commits adultery.«

wmth@Matthew:19:12 @ There are men who from their birth have been disabled from marriage, others who have been so disabled by men, and others who have disabled themselves for the sake of the Kingdom of the Heavens. He who is able to receive this, let him receive it.«

wmth@Matthew:19:15 @ So He laid His hands upon them and went away.

wmth@Matthew:19:23 @ So Jesus said to His disciples, »I solemnly tell you that it is with difficulty that a rich man will enter the Kingdom of the Heavens.

wmth@Matthew:19:28 @ »I solemnly tell you,« replied Jesus, »that in the New Creation, when the Son of Man has taken His seat on His glorious throne, all of you who have followed me shall also sit on twelve thrones and judge the twelve tribes of Israel.

wmth@Matthew:20:4 @ To these also he said, »`You also, go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.'

wmth@Matthew:20:5 @ »So they went. Again about twelve, and about three o'clock, he went out and did the same.«

wmth@Matthew:20:7 @ `Because no one has hired us,' they replied. »`You also, go into the vineyard,' he said.

wmth@Matthew:20:10 @ and when the first came, they expected to get more, but they also each got the shilling.

wmth@Matthew:20:11 @ So when they had received it, they grumbled against the employer, saying,

wmth@Matthew:20:16 @ »So the last shall be first, and the first last.«

wmth@Matthew:21:31 @ Which of the two did as his father desired?« »The first,« they said. `I solemnly tell you,' replied Jesus, «that the tax-gatherers and the notorious sinners are entering the Kingdom of God in front of you.

wmth@Matthew:21:32 @ For John came to you observing all sorts of ritual, and you put no faith in him: the tax-gatherers and the notorious sinners did put faith in him, and you, though you saw this example set you, were not even afterwards sorry so as to believe him.

wmth@Matthew:26:34 @ »In solemn truth I tell you,« replied Jesus, »that this very night, before the cock crows, you will three times disown me.«

wmth@Matthew:26:35 @ »Even if I must die with you,« declared Peter, »I will never disown you.« In like manner protested all the disciples.

wmth@Matthew:26:38 @ and He said to them, »My soul is crushed with anguish to the very point of death; wait here, and keep awake with me.«

wmth@Matthew:26:44 @ So He left them, and went away once more and prayed a third time, again using the same words.

wmth@Matthew:26:63 @ Jesus however remained silent. Again the High Priest addressed Him. »In the name of the ever-living God,« he said, »I now put you on your oath. Tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God.«

wmth@Matthew:26:75 @ and Peter recollected the words of Jesus, how He had said, »Before the cock crows you will three times disown me.« And he went out and wept aloud, bitterly.

wmth@Matthew:27:7 @ So after consulting together they spent the money in the purchase of the Potter's Field as a burial place for people not belonging to the city;

wmth@Matthew:27:8 @ for which reason that piece of ground received the name, which it still bears, of `the Field of Blood.'

wmth@Matthew:27:14 @ But He made no reply to a single accusation, so that the Governor was greatly astonished.

wmth@Matthew:27:15 @ »Now it was the Governor's custom at the Festival to release some one prisoner, whomsoever the populace desired;

wmth@Matthew:27:16 @ and at this time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.«

wmth@Matthew:27:24 @ So when he saw that he could gain nothing, but that on the contrary there was a riot threatening, he called for water and washed his hands in sight of them all, saying, »I am not responsible for this murder: you must answer for it.«

wmth@Matthew:27:27 @ Then the Governor's soldiers took Jesus into the Praetorium, and called together the whole battalion to make sport of Him.

wmth@Matthew:27:28 @ Stripping off His garments, they put on Him a general's short crimson cloak.

wmth@Matthew:27:33 @ and so they came to a place called Golgotha, which means `Skull-ground.'

wmth@Matthew:27:40 @ and said, »You who would pull down the Sanctuary and build a new one within three days, save yourself. If you are God's Son, come down from the cross.«

wmth@Matthew:27:41 @ In like manner the High Priests also, together with the Scribes and the Elders, taunted Him.

wmth@Matthew:27:43 @ His trust is in God: let God deliver him now, if He will have him; for he said, `I am God's Son.'«

wmth@Matthew:27:47 @ »The man is calling for Elijah,« said some of the bystanders.

wmth@Matthew:27:48 @ One of them ran forthwith, and filling a sponge with sour wine put it on the end of a cane and offered it Him to drink;

wmth@Matthew:27:54 @ As for the Captain and the soldiers who were with Him keeping guard over Jesus, when they witnessed the earthquake and the other occurrences they were filled with terror, and exclaimed, »Assuredly he was God's Son.«

wmth@Matthew:27:56 @ among them being Mary of Magdala, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zabdi.

wmth@Matthew:27:57 @ Towards sunset there came a wealthy inhabitant of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who himself also had become a disciple of Jesus.

wmth@Matthew:27:59 @ So Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean sheet of fine linen.

wmth@Matthew:27:60 @ He then laid it in his own new tomb which he had hewn in the solid rock, and after rolling a great stone against the door of the tomb he went home.

wmth@Matthew:27:64 @ So give orders for the sepulchre to be securely guarded till the third day, for fear his disciples should come by night and steal the body, and then tell the people that he has come back to life; and so the last imposture will be more serious than the first.«

wmth@Matthew:27:66 @ So they went and made the sepulchre secure, sealing the stone besides setting the guard.

wmth@Matthew:28:11 @ While they went on this errand, some of the guards came into the city and reported to the High Priests every detail of what had happened.

wmth@Matthew:28:12 @ So the latter held a conference with the Elders, and after consultation with them they heavily bribed the soldiers,

wmth@Matthew:28:15 @ So they took the money and did as they were instructed; and this story was noised about among the Jews, and is current to this day.

wmth@Matthew:28:17 @ There they saw Him and prostrated themselves before Him. Yet some doubted.

wmth@Matthew:28:19 @ Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations; baptize them into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit;

wmth@Mark:1:11 @ and a voice came from the sky, saying, »Thou art My Son dearly loved: in Thee is My delight.«

wmth@Mark:1:14 @ Then, after John had been thrown into prison, Jesus came into Galilee proclaiming God's Good News.

wmth@Mark:1:19 @ Going on a little further He saw James the son of Zabdi and his brother John: they also were in the boat mending the nets, and He immediately called them.

wmth@Mark:1:21 @ So they came to Capernaum, and on the next Sabbath He went to the synagogue and began to teach.

wmth@Mark:1:26 @ So the foul spirit, after throwing the man into convulsions, came out of him with a loud cry.

wmth@Mark:1:27 @ And all were amazed and awe-struck, so they began to ask one another, »What does this mean? Here is a new sort of teaching–and a tone of authority! And even to foul spirits he issues orders and they obey him!«

wmth@Mark:1:31 @ So He went to her, and taking her hand He raised her to her feet: the fever left her, and she began to wait upon them.

wmth@Mark:1:35 @ In the morning He rose early, while it was still quite dark, and leaving the house He went away to a solitary place and there prayed.

wmth@Mark:1:38 @ »Let us go elsewhere, to the neighbouring country towns,« He replied, »that I may proclaim my Message there also; because for that purpose I came from God.«

wmth@Mark:1:45 @ But the man, when he went out, began to tell every one and to publish the matter abroad, so that it was no longer possible for Jesus to go openly into any town; but He had to remain outside in unfrequented places, where people came to Him from all parts.

wmth@Mark:2:1 @ After some days He entered Capernaum again, and it soon became known that He was at home;

wmth@Mark:2:5 @ Seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic, »My son, your sins are pardoned.«

wmth@Mark:2:6 @ Now there were some of the Scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts.

wmth@Mark:2:8 @ At once perceiving by His spirit that they were reasoning within themselves, Jesus asked them, »Why do you thus argue in your minds?

wmth@Mark:2:10 @ But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to pardon sins« –He turned to the paralytic, and said,

wmth@Mark:2:12 @ The man rose, and immediately under the eyes of all took up his mat and went out, so that they were all filled with astonishment, gave the glory to God, and said, »We never saw anything like this.«

wmth@Mark:2:14 @ And as He passed by, He saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the Toll Office, and said to him, »Follow me.« So he rose and followed Him.

wmth@Mark:2:19 @ »Can a wedding party fast while the bridegroom is among them?« replied Jesus. »So long as they have the bridegroom with them, fasting is impossible.

wmth@Mark:2:24 @ So the Pharisees said to Him, »Look! why are they doing what on the Sabbath is unlawful?«

wmth@Mark:2:26 @ how he entered the house of God in the High-priesthood of Abiathar, and ate the Presented Loaves –which none but the priests are allowed to eat– and gave some to his men also?«

wmth@Mark:2:28 @ so that the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.«

wmth@Mark:3:2 @ They closely watched Him to see whether He would cure him on the Sabbath–so as to have a charge to bring against Him.

wmth@Mark:3:6 @ But no sooner had the Pharisees left the synagogue than they held a consultation with the Herodians against Jesus, to devise some means of destroying Him.

wmth@Mark:3:9 @ So He gave directions to His disciples to keep a small boat in constant attendance on Him because of the throng–to prevent their crushing Him.

wmth@Mark:3:10 @ For He had cured many of the people, so that all who had any ailments pressed upon Him, to touch Him.

wmth@Mark:3:11 @ And the foul spirits, whenever they saw Him, threw themselves down at His feet, screaming out:»You are the Son of God.«

wmth@Mark:3:14 @ He appointed twelve of them, that they might be with Him, and that He might also send them to proclaim His Message,

wmth@Mark:3:17 @ James the son of Zabdi and John the brother of James (these two He surnamed Boanerges, that is `Sons of Thunder'),

wmth@Mark:3:18 @ Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Cananaean,

wmth@Mark:3:19 @ and Judas Iscariot, the man who also betrayed Him.

wmth@Mark:3:20 @ And He went into a house. But again the crowd assembled, so that there was no opportunity for them even to snatch a meal.

wmth@Mark:3:23 @ So He called them to Him, and using figurative language He appealed to them, saying, »How is it possible for Satan to expel Satan?

wmth@Mark:3:26 @ So if Satan has risen in arms and has made war upon himself, stand he cannot, but meets his end.

wmth@Mark:3:28 @ In solemn truth I tell you that all their sins may be pardoned to the sons of men, and all their blasphemies, however they may have blasphemed;

wmth@Mark:3:29 @ but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, he remains for ever unabsolved: he is guilty of a sin of the Ages.«

wmth@Mark:3:32 @ Now a crowd was sitting round Him; so they tell Him, »Your mother and your brothers and sisters are outside, inquiring for you.«

wmth@Mark:4:2 @ Then He proceeded to teach them many lessons in figurative language; and in His teaching He said,

wmth@Mark:4:3 @ »Listen: the sower goes out to sow.«

wmth@Mark:4:4 @ As he sows, some of the seed falls by the way-side, and the birds come and peck it up.

wmth@Mark:4:5 @ Some falls on the rocky ground where it finds but little earth, and it shoots up quickly because it has no depth of soil;

wmth@Mark:4:7 @ Some, again, falls among the thorns; and the thorns spring up and stifle it, so that it yields no crop.

wmth@Mark:4:8 @ But some of the seed falls into good ground, and gives a return: it comes up and increases, and yields thirty, sixty, or a hundred-fold.«

wmth@Mark:4:14 @ »What the sower sows is the Message.«

wmth@Mark:4:15 @ Those who receive the seed by the way-side are those in whom the Message is sown, but, when they have heard it, Satan comes at once and carries away the Message sown in them.

wmth@Mark:4:24 @ He also said to them, »Take care what you hear. With what measure you measure, it will be measured to you, and that with interest.

wmth@Mark:4:29 @ But no sooner is the crop ripe, than he sends the reapers, because the time of harvest has come.«

wmth@Mark:4:31 @ It is like a mustard-seed, which, when sown in the earth, is the smallest of all the seeds in the world;

wmth@Mark:4:32 @ yet when sown it springs up and becomes larger than all the herbs, and throws out great branches, so that the birds build under its shadow.«

wmth@Mark:4:36 @ So they got away from the crowd, and took Him –as He was– in the boat; and other boats accompanied Him.

wmth@Mark:4:37 @ But a heavy squall came on, and the waves were now dashing into the boat, so that it was fast filling.

wmth@Mark:4:38 @ But He Himself was in the stern asleep, with His head on the cushion: so they woke Him. »Rabbi,« they cried, »is it nothing to you that we are drowning?«

wmth@Mark:4:39 @ So He roused Himself and rebuked the wind, and said to the waves, »Silence! Be still!« The wind sank, and a perfect calm set in.

wmth@Mark:4:40 @ »Why are you so timid?« He asked; »have you still no faith?«

wmth@Mark:5:1 @ So they arrived at the opposite shore of the Lake, in the country of the Gerasenes.

wmth@Mark:5:7 @ crying out in a loud voice, »What hast Thou to do with me, Jesus, Son of God Most High? In God's name I implore Thee not to torment me.«

wmth@Mark:5:9 @ Jesus also questioned him. »What is your name?« He said. »Legion,« he replied, »for there are a host of us.«

wmth@Mark:5:12 @ So they besought Jesus. »Send us to the swine,« they said, »so that we may enter into them.«

wmth@Mark:5:14 @ The swineherds fled, and spread the news in town and country. So the people came to see what it was that had happened;

wmth@Mark:5:20 @ So the man departed, and related publicly everywhere in the Ten Towns all that Jesus had done for him; and all were astonished.

wmth@Mark:5:23 @ and besought Him with many entreaties. »My little daughter,« he said, »is at the point of death: I pray you come and lay your hands upon her, that she may recover and live.«

wmth@Mark:5:32 @ But He continued looking about to see the person who had done this,

wmth@Mark:5:38 @ So they come to the Warden's house. Here He gazes on a scene of uproar, with people weeping aloud and wailing.

wmth@Mark:5:43 @ but He gave strict injunctions that the matter should not be made known, and directed them to give her something to eat.

wmth@Mark:6:3 @ Is not this the carpenter, Mary's son, the brother of James and Joses, Jude and Simon? And do not his sisters live here among us?« So they turned angrily away.

wmth@Mark:6:6 @ He wondered at their unbelief. So He went round the adjacent villages, teaching.

wmth@Mark:6:12 @ So they set out, and preached in order that men might repent.

wmth@Mark:6:17 @ For Herod himself had sent and had had John arrested and had kept him in prison in chains, for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; because he had married her.

wmth@Mark:6:22 @ at which Herodias's own daughter came in and danced, and so charmed Herod and his guests that he said to her, »Ask me for anything you please, and I will give it to you.«

wmth@Mark:6:26 @ Then the King, though intensely sorry, yet for the sake of his oaths, and of his guests, would not break faith with her.

wmth@Mark:6:27 @ He at once sent a soldier of his guard with orders to bring John's head. So he went and beheaded him in the prison,

wmth@Mark:6:31 @ Then He said to them, »Come away, all of you, to a quiet place, and rest awhile.« For there were many coming and going, so that they had no time even for meals.

wmth@Mark:6:32 @ Accordingly they sailed away in the boat to a solitary place apart.

wmth@Mark:6:34 @ So when Jesus landed, He saw a vast multitude; and His heart was moved with pity for them, because they were like sheep which have no shepherd, and He proceeded to teach them many things.

wmth@Mark:6:35 @ By this time it was late; so His disciples came to Him, and said, »This is a lonely place, and the hour is now late:

wmth@Mark:6:36 @ send them away that they may go to the farms and villages near here and buy themselves something to eat.«

wmth@Mark:6:38 @ »How many loaves have you?« He inquired; »go and see.« So they found out, and said, »Five; and a couple of fish.«

wmth@Mark:6:39 @ So He directed them to make all sit down in companies on the green grass.

wmth@Mark:6:41 @ Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and lifting His eyes to Heaven He blessed the food. Then He broke the loaves into portions which He went on handing to the disciples to distribute; giving pieces also of the two fish to them all.

wmth@Mark:6:52 @ For they had not learned the lesson taught by the loaves, but their minds were dull.

wmth@Mark:6:54 @ But no sooner had they gone ashore than the people immediately recognized Him.

wmth@Mark:7:2 @ They had noticed that some of His disciples were eating their food with `unclean' (that is to say, unwashed) hands.

wmth@Mark:7:5 @ So the Pharisees and Scribes put the question to Him:»Why do your disciples transgress the traditions of the Elders, and eat their food with unclean hands?«

wmth@Mark:7:12 @ And so you no longer allow him to do anything for his father or mother,

wmth@Mark:7:18 @ »Have also so little understanding?« He replied; »do you not understand that anything whatever that enters a man from outside cannot make him unclean,

wmth@Mark:7:30 @ So she went home, and found the child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.

wmth@Mark:7:33 @ So Jesus taking him aside, apart from the crowd, put His fingers into his ears, and spat, and moistened his tongue;

wmth@Mark:8:1 @ About that time there was again an immense crowd, and they found themselves with nothing to eat. So He called His disciples to Him.

wmth@Mark:8:3 @ If I were to send them home hungry, they would faint on the way, some of them having come a great distance.«

wmth@Mark:8:6 @ So He passed the word to the people to sit down on the ground. Then taking the seven loaves He blessed them, and broke them into portions and proceeded to give them to His disciples for them to distribute, and they distributed them to the people.

wmth@Mark:8:7 @ They had also a few small fish. He blessed them, and He told His disciples to distribute these also.

wmth@Mark:8:8 @ So the people ate an abundant meal; and what remained over they picked up and carried away–seven hampers of broken pieces.

wmth@Mark:8:12 @ Heaving a deep and troubled sigh, He said, »Why do the men of to-day ask for a sign? In solemn truth I tell you that no sign will be given to the men of to-day.«

wmth@Mark:8:13 @ So He left them, went on board again, and came away to the other side.

wmth@Mark:8:17 @ He perceived what they were saying, and He said to them, »What is this discussion of yours about having no bread? Do you not yet see and understand? Are your minds so dull of comprehension?

wmth@Mark:8:23 @ So He took the blind man by the arm and brought him out of the village, and spitting into his eyes He put His hands on him and asked him, »Can you see anything?«

wmth@Mark:8:26 @ So He sent him home, and added, »Do not even go into the village.«

wmth@Mark:8:31 @ And now for the first time He told them, »The Son of Man must endure much suffering, and be rejected by the Elders and the High Priests and the Scribes, and be put to death, and after two days rise to life.«

wmth@Mark:8:34 @ Then calling to Him the crowd and also His disciples, He said to them, »If any one is desirous of following me, let him ignore self and take up his cross, and so be my follower.

wmth@Mark:8:38 @ Every one, however, who has been ashamed of me and of my teachings in this faithless and sinful age, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in His Father's glory with the holy angels.«

wmth@Mark:9:1 @ He went on to say, »In solemn truth I tell you that some of those who are standing here will certainly not taste death till they have seen the Kingdom of God already come in power.«

wmth@Mark:9:3 @ His garments also became dazzling with brilliant whiteness–such whiteness as no bleaching on earth could give.

wmth@Mark:9:7 @ Then there came a cloud spreading over them, and a voice issued from the cloud, »This is my Son, dearly loved: listen to Him.«

wmth@Mark:9:9 @ As they were coming down from the mountain, He very strictly forbad them to tell any one what they had seen »until after the Son of Man has risen from among the dead.«

wmth@Mark:9:10 @ So they kept the matter to themselves, although frequently asking one another what was meant by the rising from the dead.

wmth@Mark:9:11 @ They also asked Him, »How is it that the Scribes say that Elijah must first come?«

wmth@Mark:9:12 @ »Elijah,« He replied, »does indeed come first and reforms everything; but how is it that it is written of the Son of Man that He will endure much suffering and be held in contempt?

wmth@Mark:9:13 @ Yet I tell you that not only has Elijah come, but they have also done to him whatever they chose, as the Scriptures say about him.«

wmth@Mark:9:17 @ »Rabbi,« answered one of the crowd, »I have brought you my son. He has a dumb spirit in him;

wmth@Mark:9:20 @ So they brought him to Jesus. And the spirit, when he saw Jesus, immediately threw the youth into convulsions, so that he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.

wmth@Mark:9:26 @ So with a loud cry he threw the boy into fit after fit, and came out. The boy looked as if he were dead, so that most of them said he was dead;

wmth@Mark:9:31 @ for He was teaching His disciples, and telling them, »The Son of Man is to be betrayed into the hands of men, and they will put Him to death; and after being put to death, in three days He will rise to life again.«

wmth@Mark:9:33 @ So they came to Capernaum; and when in the house He asked them, »What were you arguing about on the way?«

wmth@Mark:9:37 @ »Whoever for my sake receives one such young child as this, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not so much me as Him who sent me.«

wmth@Mark:9:41 @ and whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, I solemnly tell you that he will certainly not lose his reward.

wmth@Mark:10:1 @ Soon on His feet once more, He enters the district of Judaea and crosses the Jordan: again the people flock to Him, and ere long, as was usual with Him, He was teaching them once more.

wmth@Mark:10:8 @ so that they are two no longer, but

wmth@Mark:10:15 @ In solemn truth I tell you that no one who does not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child will by any possibility enter it.«

wmth@Mark:10:23 @ Then looking round on His disciples Jesus said, »With how hard a struggle will the possessors of riches enter the Kingdom of God!«

wmth@Mark:10:28 @ »Remember,« said Peter to Him, »that we forsook everything and have become your followers.«

wmth@Mark:10:29 @ »In solemn truth I tell you,« replied Jesus, »that there is no one who has forsaken house or brothers or sisters, or mother or father, or children or lands, for my sake and for the sake of the Good News,

wmth@Mark:10:32 @ They were still on the road going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was walking ahead of them; they were full of wonder, and some, though they followed, did so with fear. Then, once more calling to Him the Twelve, He began to tell them what was about to happen to Him.

wmth@Mark:10:33 @ »See,« He said, »we are going up to Jerusalem, where the Son of Man will be betrayed to the High Priests and the Scribes. They will condemn Him to death, and will hand Him over to the Gentiles;

wmth@Mark:10:35 @ Then James and John, the sons of Zabdi, came up to Him and said, »Rabbi, we wish you would grant us whatever request we make of you.«

wmth@Mark:10:43 @ but it is not to be so among you. No, whoever desires to be great among you must be your servant;

wmth@Mark:10:45 @ For the Son of Man also did not come to be waited upon, but to wait on others, and to give His life as the redemption-price for a multitude of people.«

wmth@Mark:10:46 @ They came to Jericho; and as He was leaving that town –Himself and His disciples and a great crowd– Bartimaeus (the son of Timaeus), a blind beggar, was sitting by the way-side.

wmth@Mark:10:47 @ Hearing that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, »Son of David, Jesus, have pity on me.«

wmth@Mark:10:48 @ Many angrily told him to leave off shouting; but he only cried out all the louder, »Son of David, have pity on me.«

wmth@Mark:10:49 @ Then Jesus stood still. »Call him,« He said. So they called the blind man. »Cheer up,« they said; »rise, he is calling you.«

wmth@Mark:11:4 @ So they went and found a young ass tied up at the front door of a house. They were untying it,

wmth@Mark:11:5 @ when some of the bystanders called out, »What are you doing, untying the foal?«

wmth@Mark:11:7 @ So they brought the foal to Jesus, and threw their outer garments over him; and Jesus mounted.

wmth@Mark:11:11 @ So He came into Jerusalem and into the Temple; and after looking round upon everything there, the hour being now late He went out to Bethany with the Twelve.

wmth@Mark:11:13 @ But in the distance He saw a fig-tree in full leaf, and went to see whether perhaps He could find some figs on it. When however He came to it, He found nothing but leaves (for it was not fig time);

wmth@Mark:11:23 @ In solemn truth I tell you that if any one shall say to this mountain, `Remove, and hurl thyself into the sea,' and has no doubt about it in his heart, but stedfastly believes that what he says will happen, it shall be granted him.

wmth@Mark:11:25 @ But whenever you stand praying, if you have a grievance against any one, forgive it, so that your Father in Heaven may also forgive you your offences.«

wmth@Mark:11:31 @ So they debated the matter with one another. »Suppose we say, `Heavenly,'« they argued, »he will ask, `Why then did you not believe him?'

wmth@Mark:11:33 @ So they answered Jesus, »We do not know.«»Nor do I tell you,« said Jesus, »by what authority I do these things.«

wmth@Mark:12:5 @ Yet a third he sent, and him they killed. And he sent many besides, and them also they ill-treated, beating some and killing others.

wmth@Mark:12:6 @ He had still one left whom he could send, a dearly-loved son: him last of all he sent, saying, »`They will treat my son with respect.'

wmth@Mark:12:8 @ »So they took him and killed him, and flung his body outside the vineyard.«

wmth@Mark:12:12 @ And they kept looking out for an opportunity to seize Him, but were afraid of the people; for they saw that in this parable He had referred to. So they left Him and went away.

wmth@Mark:12:13 @ Their next step was to send to Him some of the Pharisees and of Herod's partisans to entrap Him in conversation.

wmth@Mark:12:14 @ So they came to Him. »Rabbi,« they said, »we know that you are a truthful man and you do not fear any one; for you do not recognize human distinctions, but teach God's way truly. Is it allowable to pay poll-tax to Caesar, or not?

wmth@Mark:12:22 @ And so did the rest of the seven, all dying childless. Finally the woman also died.

wmth@Mark:12:32 @ So the Scribe said to Him, »Rightly, in very truth, Rabbi, have you said that

wmth@Mark:12:35 @ But, while teaching in the Temple, Jesus asked, »How is it the Scribes say that the Christ is a son of David?

wmth@Mark:12:37 @ »David himself calls Him `Lord:' how then can He be his son?« And the mass of people found pleasure in listening to Jesus.

wmth@Mark:12:38 @ Moreover in the course of His teaching He said, »Be on your guard against the Scribes who like to walk about in long robes and to be bowed to in places of public resort,

wmth@Mark:12:43 @ So He called His disciples to Him and said, »In solemn truth I tell you that this widow, poor as she is, has thrown in more than all the other contributors to the Treasury;

wmth@Mark:13:5 @ So Jesus began to say to them: »Take care that no one misleads you.

wmth@Mark:13:14 @ »As soon, however, as you see the standing where he ought not« –let the reader observe these words– then let those in Judaea escape to the hills;

wmth@Mark:13:27 @ Then He will send forth the angels and gather together His chosen People from north, south, east and west, from the remotest parts of the earth and the sky.

wmth@Mark:13:28 @ »Learn from the fig-tree the lesson it teaches. As soon as its branch has become soft and it is bursting into leaf, you know that summer is near.«

wmth@Mark:13:29 @ So also do you, when you see these things happening, be sure that He is near, at your very door.

wmth@Mark:13:30 @ I tell you in solemn truth that the present generation will certainly not pass away without all these things having first taken place.

wmth@Mark:13:32 @ »But as to that day or the exact time no one knows–not even the angels in Heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.

wmth@Mark:14:1 @ It was now two days before the Passover and the feast of Unleavened Bread, and the High Priests and Scribes were bent on finding how to seize Him by stratagem and put Him to death.

wmth@Mark:14:4 @ But there were some who said indignantly among themselves, »Why has the ointment been thus wasted?

wmth@Mark:14:5 @ For that ointment might have been sold for fifteen pounds or more, and the money have been given to the poor.« And they were exceedingly angry with her.

wmth@Mark:14:9 @ And I solemnly tell you that wherever in the whole world the Good News shall be proclaimed, this which she has done shall also be told in remembrance of her.«

wmth@Mark:14:11 @ They gladly listened to his proposal, and promised to give him a sum of money. So he looked out for an opportunity to betray Him.

wmth@Mark:14:12 @ On the first day of the feast of Unleavened Bread –the day for killing the Passover lamb– His disciples asked Him, »Where shall we go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?«

wmth@Mark:14:13 @ So He sent two of His disciples with instructions, saying, »Go into the city, and you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water: follow him,

wmth@Mark:14:14 @ and whatever house he enters, tell the master of the house, `The Rabbi asks, Where is my room where I can eat the Passover with my disciples?'

wmth@Mark:14:16 @ So the disciples went out and came to the city, and found everything just as He had told them; and they got the Passover ready.

wmth@Mark:14:18 @ And while they were at table Jesus said, »I solemnly tell you that one of you will betray me–one who is eating with me.«

wmth@Mark:14:19 @ They were filled with sorrow, and began asking Him, one by one, »Not I, is it?«

wmth@Mark:14:21 @ For the Son of Man is going His way as it is written about Him; but alas for the man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It had been a happy thing for that man, had he never been born.«

wmth@Mark:14:22 @ Also during the meal He took a Passover biscuit, blessed it, and broke it. He then gave it to them, saying, »Take this, it is my body.«

wmth@Mark:14:25 @ I solemnly tell you that never again will I taste the produce of the vine till I shall drink the new wine in the Kingdom of God.«

wmth@Mark:14:30 @ »I solemnly tell you,« replied Jesus, »that to-day –this night– before the cock crows twice, you yourself will three times disown me.«

wmth@Mark:14:31 @ »Even if I must die with you,« declared Peter again and again, »I will never disown you.« In like manner protested also all the disciples.

wmth@Mark:14:32 @ So they came to a place called Gethsemane. There He said to His disciples, »Sit down here till I have prayed.«

wmth@Mark:14:41 @ A third time He came, and then He said, »Sleep on and rest. Enough! the hour has come. Even now they are betraying the Son of Man into the hands of sinful men.

wmth@Mark:14:45 @ So he came, and going straight to Jesus he said, »Rabbi!« and kissed Him with seeming affection;

wmth@Mark:14:50 @ Then His friends all forsook Him and fled.

wmth@Mark:14:53 @ So they led Jesus away to the High Priest, and with him there assembled all the High Priests, Elders, and Scribes.

wmth@Mark:14:57 @ Then some came forward as witnesses and falsely declared,

wmth@Mark:14:61 @ But He remained silent, and gave no reply. A second time the High Priest questioned Him. »Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?« he said.

wmth@Mark:14:62 @ »I am,« replied Jesus, »and you and others will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the divine Power, and coming amid the clouds of the sky.«

wmth@Mark:14:65 @ Thereupon some began to spit on Him, and to blindfold Him, while striking Him with their fists and crying, »Prove that you are a prophet.« The officers too struck Him with open hands as they took Him in charge.

wmth@Mark:14:67 @ and seeing Peter warming himself she looked at him and said, »You also were with Jesus, the Nazarene.«

wmth@Mark:14:70 @ A second time he repeatedly denied it. Soon afterwards the bystanders again accused Peter, saying, »You are surely one of them, for you too are a Galilaean.«

wmth@Mark:14:72 @ No sooner had he spoken than a cock crowed for the second time, and Peter recollected the words of Jesus, »Before the cock crows twice, you will three times disown me.« And as he thought of it, he wept aloud.

wmth@Mark:15:2 @ So Pilate questioned Him. »Are the King of the Jews?« he asked. »I am,« replied Jesus.

wmth@Mark:15:5 @ But Jesus made no further answer: so that Pilate wondered.

wmth@Mark:15:6 @ Now at the Festival it was customary for Pilate to release to the Jews any one prisoner whom they might beg off from punishment;

wmth@Mark:15:7 @ and at this time a man named Barabbas was in prison among the insurgents–persons who in the insurrection had committed murder.

wmth@Mark:15:8 @ So the people came crowding up, asking Pilate to grant them the usual favour.

wmth@Mark:15:15 @ So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the mob, released Barabbas for them, and after scourging Jesus handed Him over for crucifixion.

wmth@Mark:15:16 @ Then the soldiers led Him away into the court of the Palace (the Praetorium), and calling together the whole battalion

wmth@Mark:15:17 @ they arrayed Him in crimson, placed on His head a wreath of thorny twigs which they had twisted,

wmth@Mark:15:22 @ So they brought Him to the place called Golgotha, which, being translated, means `Skull-ground.'

wmth@Mark:15:31 @ In the same way the High Priests also, as well as the Scribes, kept on scoffing at Him, saying to one another, »He has saved others: himself he cannot save!

wmth@Mark:15:35 @ Some of the bystanders, hearing Him, said, »Listen, he is calling for Elijah!«

wmth@Mark:15:36 @ Then a man ran to fill a sponge with sour wine, and he put it on the end of a cane and placed it to His lips, saying at the same time, »Wait! let us see whether Elijah will come and take him down.«

wmth@Mark:15:39 @ And when the Centurion who stood in front of the cross saw that He was dead, he exclaimed, »This man was indeed God's Son.«

wmth@Mark:15:40 @ There were also a party of women looking on from a distance; among them being both Mary of Magdala and Mary the mother of James the Little and of Joses, and Salome–

wmth@Mark:15:43 @ Joseph of Arimathaea came, a highly respected member of the Council, who himself also was living in expectation of the Kingdom of God. He summoned up courage to go in to see Pilate and beg for the body of Jesus.

wmth@Mark:16:2 @ So, very soon after sunrise on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb;

wmth@Mark:16:8 @ So they came out, and fled from the tomb, for they were greatly agitated and surprised; and they said not a word to any one, for they were afraid.

wmth@Mark:16:18 @ They shall take up venomous snakes, and if they drink any deadly poison it shall do them no harm whatever. They shall lay their hands on the sick, and the sick shall recover.«

wmth@Mark:16:19 @ So the Lord Jesus after having thus spoken to them was taken up into Heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.

wmth@Luke:1:3 @ it has seemed right to me also, after careful investigation of the facts from their commencement, to write for you, most noble Theophilus, a connected account,

wmth@Luke:1:13 @ But the angel said to him, »Do not be afraid, Zechariah, for your petition has been heard: and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to call his name John.

wmth@Luke:1:21 @ Meanwhile the people were waiting for Zechariah, and were surprised that he stayed so long in the Sanctuary.

wmth@Luke:1:28 @ So Gabriel went into the house and said to her, »Joy be to you, favoured one! the Lord is with you.«

wmth@Luke:1:31 @ You will conceive in your womb and bear a son; and you are to call His name JESUS.

wmth@Luke:1:32 @ He will be great and He will be called `Son of the Most High.' And the Lord God will give Him the throne of His forefather David;

wmth@Luke:1:35 @ The angel answered, »The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; and for this reason your holy offspring will be called `the Son of God.'

wmth@Luke:1:36 @ And see, your relative Elizabeth–she also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

wmth@Luke:1:41 @ and as soon as Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the babe leapt within her. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit,

wmth@Luke:1:46 @ Then Mary said: »My soul extols the Lord,

wmth@Luke:1:56 @ So Mary stayed with Elizabeth about three months, and then returned home.

wmth@Luke:1:57 @ Now when Elizabeth's full time was come, she gave birth to a son;

wmth@Luke:1:63 @ So he asked for a writing-tablet, and wrote, »His name is John.« And they all wondered.

wmth@Luke:1:74 @ To grant us to be rescued from the power of our foes And so render worship to Him free from fear,

wmth@Luke:2:4 @ So Joseph went up from Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judaea, to David's town of Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David,

wmth@Luke:2:7 @ and she gave birth to her first-born son, and wrapped Him round, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

wmth@Luke:2:15 @ Then, as soon as the angels had left them and returned to Heaven, the shepherds said to one another, »Let us now go over as far as Bethlehem and see this that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us.«

wmth@Luke:2:16 @ So they made haste and came and found Mary and Joseph, with the babe lying in the manger.

wmth@Luke:2:24 @ During the passage He fell asleep, and there came down a squall of wind on the Lake, so that the boat began to fill and they were in deadly peril.

wmth@Luke:2:25 @ And they also offered a sacrifice as commanded in the Law of the Lord,

wmth@Luke:2:26 @ Now there was a man in Jerusalem of the name of Symeon, an upright and God-fearing man, who was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.

wmth@Luke:2:30 @ »Now, O Sovereign Lord, Thou dost send Thy servant away in peace, in fulfilment of Thy word,

wmth@Luke:2:36 @ and a sword will pierce through your own soul also; that the reasonings in many hearts may be revealed.«

wmth@Luke:2:37 @ There was also Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, belonging to the tribe of Asher. She was of a very great age, having had after her maidenhood seven years of married life,

wmth@Luke:2:40 @ Then, as soon as they had accomplished all that the Law required, they returned to Galilee to their own town of Nazareth.

wmth@Luke:2:42 @ Now His parents used to go up year by year to Jerusalem at the Feast of the Passover.

wmth@Luke:3:2 @ during the High-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, a message from God came to John, the son of Zechariah, in the Desert.

wmth@Luke:3:9 @ And even now the axe is lying at the root of the trees, so that every tree which fails to yield good fruit will quickly be hewn down and thrown into the fire.«

wmth@Luke:3:12 @ There came also a party of tax-gatherers to be baptized, and they asked him, »Rabbi, what are we to do?«

wmth@Luke:3:14 @ The soldiers also once and again inquired of him, »And we, what are we to do?« His answer was, »Neither intimidate any one nor lay false charges; and be content with your pay.«

wmth@Luke:3:20 @ now added this to crown all the rest, that he threw John into prison.

wmth@Luke:3:21 @ Now when all the people had been baptized, and Jesus also had been baptized and was praying, the sky opened,

wmth@Luke:3:22 @ and the Holy Spirit came down in bodily shape, like a dove, upon Him, and a voice came from Heaven, which said, »Thou art My Son, dearly loved: in Thee is My delight.«

wmth@Luke:3:23 @ And He –Jesus– when He began His ministry, was about thirty years old. He was the son (it was supposed) of Joseph, son of Heli,

wmth@Luke:4:3 @ Then the Devil said to Him, »If you are God's Son, tell this stone to become bread.«

wmth@Luke:4:6 @ And the Devil said to Him, »To you will I give all this authority and this splendour; for it has been handed over to me, and on whomsoever I will I bestow it.

wmth@Luke:4:16 @ He came to Nazareth also, where He had been brought up; and, as was His custom, He went to the synagogue on the Sabbath, and stood up to read.

wmth@Luke:4:22 @ And they all spoke well of Him, wondering at the sweet words of kindness which fell from His lips, while they asked one another, »Is not this Joseph's son?«

wmth@Luke:4:23 @ »Doubtless,« said He, »you will quote to me the proverb, `Physician, cure yourself: all that we hear that you have done at Capernaum, do here also in your native place.'«

wmth@Luke:4:24 @ »I tell you in solemn truth,« He added, »that no Prophet is welcomed among his own people.

wmth@Luke:4:27 @ And there was also many a leper in Israel in the time of the Prophet Elisha, and yet not one of them was cleansed, but Naaman the Syrian was.«

wmth@Luke:4:41 @ Demons also came out of many, loudly calling out, »You are the Son of God.« But He rebuked them and forbad them to speak, because they knew Him to be the Christ.

wmth@Luke:4:42 @ Next morning, at daybreak, He left the town and went away to a solitary place; but the people flocked out to find Him, and, coming to the place where He was, they endeavoured to detain Him that He might not leave them.

wmth@Luke:4:43 @ But He said to them, »I have to tell the Good News of the Kingdom of God to the other towns also, because for this purpose I was sent.«

wmth@Luke:5:29 @ Levi also gave a great entertainment at his house in honour of Jesus, and there was a large party of tax-gatherers and others at table with them.

wmth@Luke:5:33 @ Again they said to Him, »John's disciples fast often and pray, as do also those of the pharisees; but yours eat and drink.«

wmth@Luke:5:34 @ »Can you compel the bridal party to fast,« replied Jesus, »so long as they have the bridegroom among them?

wmth@Luke:5:36 @ He also spoke in figurative language to them. »No one,« He said, »tears a piece from a new garment to mend an old one. Otherwise he would not only spoil the new, but the patch from the new would not match the old.

wmth@Luke:8:49 @ While He was still speaking, some one came to the Warden of the Synagogue from his house and said, »Your daughter is dead; trouble the Rabbi no further.«

wmth@Luke:8:51 @ So He came to the house, but allowed no one to go in with Him but Peter and John and James and the girl's father and mother.

wmth@Luke:8:55 @ And her spirit returned, and instantly she stood up; and He directed them to give her some food.

wmth@Luke:9:6 @ So they departed and visited village after village, spreading the Good News and performing cures everywhere.

wmth@Luke:9:7 @ Now Herod the Tetrarch heard of all that was going on; and he was bewildered because of its being said by some that John had come back to life,

wmth@Luke:9:8 @ by others that Elijah had appeared, and by others that some one of the ancient Prophets had come back to life.

wmth@Luke:18:31 @ Then He drew the Twelve to Him and said, »See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything written in the Prophets which refers to the Son of Man will be fulfilled.

wmth@Luke:18:38 @ Then, at the top of his voice, he cried out, »Jesus, son of David, take pity on me.«

wmth@Luke:18:39 @ Those in front reproved him and tried to silence him; but he continued shouting, louder than ever, »Son of David, take pity on me.«

wmth@Luke:18:43 @ No sooner were the words spoken than the man regained his sight and followed Jesus, giving glory to God; and all the people, seeing it, gave praise to God.

wmth@Luke:19:1 @ So He entered Jericho and was passing through the town.

wmth@Luke:19:3 @ He was anxious to see what sort of man Jesus was; but he could not because of the crowd, for he was short in stature.

wmth@Luke:19:4 @ So he ran on in front and climbed up a mulberry tree to see Him; for He was about to pass that way.

wmth@Luke:19:5 @ As soon as Jesus came to the place, He looked up and said to him, »Zacchaeus, come down quickly, for I must stay at your house to-day.«

wmth@Luke:19:6 @ So he came down in haste, and welcomed Him joyfully.

wmth@Luke:19:9 @ Turning towards him, Jesus replied, »To-day salvation has come to this house, seeing that he too is a son of Abraham.

wmth@Luke:19:10 @ For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.«

wmth@Luke:19:12 @ So He said to them, »A man of noble family travelled to a distant country to obtain the rank of king, and to return.

wmth@Luke:19:15 @ And upon his return, after he had obtained the sovereignty, he ordered those servants to whom he had given the money to be summoned before him, that he might learn their success in trading.

wmth@Luke:19:16 @ »So the first came and said,« `Sir, your pound has produced ten pounds more.'

wmth@Luke:19:19 @ »So he said to this one also,« `And you, be the governor of five towns.'

wmth@Luke:19:21 @ For I was afraid of you, because you are a severe man: you take up what you did not lay down, and you reap what you did not sow.'

wmth@Luke:19:22 @ »`By your own words,' he replied, `I will judge you, you bad servant. You knew me to be a severe man, taking up what I did not lay down, and reaping what I did not sow:«

wmth@Luke:19:32 @ So those who were sent went and found things as He had told them.

wmth@Luke:19:36 @ So He rode on, while they carpeted the road with their garments.

wmth@Luke:19:39 @ Thereupon some of the Pharisees in the crowd appealed to Him, saying, »Rabbi, reprove your disciples.«

wmth@Luke:19:47 @ And day after day He taught in the Temple, while the High Priests and the Scribes were devising some means of destroying Him, as were also the leading men of the people.

wmth@Luke:20:3 @ »I also will put a question to you,« He said;

wmth@Luke:20:5 @ So they debated the matter with one another. »If we say `Heavenly,'« they argued, »he will say, `Why did you not believe him?'

wmth@Luke:20:12 @ Then again he sent a third; and this one also they wounded and drove away.

wmth@Luke:20:13 @ Then the owner of the vineyard said, »`What am I to do? I will send my son–my dearly-loved son: they will probably respect him.'

wmth@Luke:20:15 @ »So they turned him out of the vineyard and murdered him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?«

wmth@Luke:20:18 @ Every one who falls on that stone will be severely hurt, but on whomsoever it falls, he will be utterly crushed.«

wmth@Luke:20:20 @ So, after impatiently watching their opportunity, they sent spies who were to act the part of good and honest men, that they might fasten on some expression of His, so as to hand Him over to the ruling power and the Governor's authority.

wmth@Luke:20:21 @ So they put a question to Him. »Rabbi,« they said, »we know that you say and teach what is right and that you make no distinctions between one man and another, but teach God's way truly.

wmth@Luke:20:27 @ Next some of the Sadducees came forward (who deny that there is a Resurrection), and they asked Him,

wmth@Luke:20:30 @ The second and the third also took her;

wmth@Luke:20:32 @ Finally the woman also died.

wmth@Luke:20:36 @ For indeed they cannot die again; they are like angels, and are sons of God through being sons of the Resurrection.

wmth@Luke:20:39 @ Then some of the Scribes replied, »Rabbi, you have spoken well.«

wmth@Luke:20:41 @ But He asked them, »How is it they say that the Christ is a son of David?

wmth@Luke:20:44 @ »David himself therefore calls Him Lord, and how can He be his son?«

wmth@Luke:20:46 @ »Beware of the Scribes, who like to walk about in long robes, and love to be bowed to in places of public resort and to occupy the best seats in the synagogues or at a dinner party;

wmth@Luke:21:2 @ He also saw a poor widow dropping in two farthings,

wmth@Luke:21:3 @ and He said, »In truth I tell you that this widow, so poor, has thrown in more than any of them.

wmth@Luke:21:5 @ When some were remarking about the Temple, how it was embellished with beautiful stones and dedicated gifts, He said,

wmth@Luke:21:12 @ »But before all these things happen they will lay hands on you and persecute you. They will deliver you up to synagogues and to prison, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my sake.«

wmth@Luke:21:16 @ You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers, relatives, friends; and some of you they will put to death.

wmth@Luke:21:30 @ As soon as they have shot out their leaves, you know at a glance that summer is now near.

wmth@Luke:21:31 @ So also, when you see these things happening, you may be sure that the Kingdom of God is near.

wmth@Luke:21:32 @ I tell you in solemn truth that the present generation will certainly not pass away without all these things having first taken place.

wmth@Luke:21:34 @ »But take heed to yourselves, lest your souls be weighed down with self-indulgence and drunkenness or the anxieties of this life, and that day come upon you, suddenly, like a falling trap;

wmth@Luke:21:36 @ But beware of slumbering; and every moment pray that you may be fully strengthened to escape from all these coming evils, and to take your stand in the presence of the Son of Man.«

wmth@Luke:22:1 @ Meanwhile the Festival of the Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching,

wmth@Luke:22:7 @ When the day of the Unleavened Bread came –the day for the Passover lamb to be sacrificed–

wmth@Luke:22:8 @ Jesus sent Peter and John with instructions. »Go,« He said, »and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat it.«

wmth@Luke:22:10 @ »You will no sooner have entered the city,« He replied, »than you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water. Follow him into the house to which he goes,

wmth@Luke:22:11 @ and say to the master of the house, »`The Rabbi asks you, Where is the room where I can eat the Passover with my disciples?'

wmth@Luke:22:13 @ So they went and found all as He had told them; and they got the Passover ready.

wmth@Luke:22:15 @ He said to them, »Earnestly have I longed to eat this Passover with you before I suffer;

wmth@Luke:22:19 @ Then, taking a Passover biscuit, He gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, »This is my body which is being given on your behalf: this do in remembrance of me.«

wmth@Luke:22:22 @ For indeed the Son of Man goes on His way–His pre-destined way; yet alas for that man who is betraying Him!«

wmth@Luke:22:24 @ There arose also a dispute among them which of them should be regarded as greatest.

wmth@Luke:22:26 @ With you it is not so; but let the greatest among you be as the younger, and the leader be like him who serves.

wmth@Luke:22:30 @ so that you shall eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom, and sit on thrones as judges over the twelve tribes of Israel.

wmth@Luke:22:33 @ »Master,« replied Peter, »with you I am ready to go both to prison and to death.«

wmth@Luke:22:45 @ When He rose from his prayer and came to His disciples, He found them sleeping for sorrow.

wmth@Luke:22:48 @ »Judas,« said Jesus, »are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?«

wmth@Luke:22:56 @ when a maidservant saw him sitting by the fire, and, looking fixedly at him, she said, »This man also was with him.«

wmth@Luke:22:59 @ After an interval of about an hour some one else stoutly maintained:»Certainly this fellow also was with him, for in fact he is a Galilaean.«

wmth@Luke:22:60 @ »Man, I don't know what you mean,« replied Peter. No sooner had he spoken than a cock crowed.

wmth@Luke:22:61 @ The Master turned and looked on Peter; and Peter recollected the Master's words, how He had said to him, »This very day, before the cock crows, you will disown me three times.«

wmth@Luke:22:66 @ As soon as it was day, the whole body of the Elders, both High Priests and Scribes, assembled. Then He was brought into their Sanhedrin, and they asked Him,

wmth@Luke:22:69 @ But from this time forward the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of God's omnipotence.«

wmth@Luke:22:70 @ Thereupon they cried out with one voice, »You, then, are the Son of God?«»It is as you say,« He answered; »I am He.«

wmth@Luke:23:8 @ To Herod the sight of Jesus was a great gratification, for, for a long time, he had been wanting to see Him, because he had heard so much about Him. He hoped also to see some miracle performed by Him.

wmth@Luke:23:9 @ So he put a number of questions to Him, but Jesus gave him no reply.

wmth@Luke:23:11 @ Then, laughing to scorn the claims of Jesus, Herod (and his soldiers with him) made sport of Him, dressed Him in a gorgeous costume, and sent Him back to Pilate.

wmth@Luke:23:12 @ And on that very day Herod and Pilate became friends again, for they had been for some time at enmity.

wmth@Luke:23:19 @ –Barabbas! who had been lodged in jail for some time in connexion with a riot which had occurred in the city, and for murder.

wmth@Luke:23:24 @ So Pilate gave judgement, yielding to their demand.

wmth@Luke:23:25 @ The man who was lying in prison charged with riot and murder and for whom they clamoured he set free, but Jesus he gave up to be dealt with as they desired.

wmth@Luke:23:26 @ As soon as they led Him away, they laid hold on one Simon, a Cyrenaean, who was coming in from the country, and on his shoulders they put the cross, for him to carry it behind Jesus.

wmth@Luke:23:27 @ A vast crowd of the people also followed Him, and of women who were beating their breasts and wailing for Him.

wmth@Luke:23:32 @ They brought also two others, criminals, to put them to death with Him.

wmth@Luke:23:33 @ When they reached the place called `The Skull,' there they nailed Him to the cross, and the criminals also, one at His right hand and one at His left.

wmth@Luke:23:36 @ And the soldiers also made sport of Him, coming and offering Him sour wine and saying,

wmth@Luke:23:40 @ But the other, answering, reproved him. »Do you also not fear God,« he said, »when you are actually suffering the same punishment?

wmth@Luke:23:43 @ »I tell you in solemn truth,« replied Jesus, »that this very day you shall be with me in Paradise.«

wmth@Luke:24:7 @ when He told you that the Son of Man must be betrayed into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.«

wmth@Luke:24:12 @ Peter, however, rose and ran to the tomb. Stooping and looking in, he saw nothing but the linen cloths: so he went away to his own home, wondering at what had happened.

wmth@Luke:24:17 @ »What is the subject,« He asked them, »on which you are talking so earnestly, as you walk?« And they stood still, looking full of sorrow.

wmth@Luke:24:21 @ But we were hoping that it was He who was about to ransom Israel. Yes, and moreover it was the day before yesterday that these things happened.

wmth@Luke:24:22 @ And, besides, some of the women of our company have amazed us. They went to the tomb at daybreak,

wmth@Luke:24:23 @ and, finding that His body was not there, they came and declared to us that they had also seen a vision of angels who said that He was alive.

wmth@Luke:24:24 @ Thereupon some of our party went to the tomb and found things just as the women had said; but Jesus Himself they did not see.«

wmth@Luke:24:25 @ »O dull-witted men,« He replied, »with minds so slow to believe all that the Prophets have spoken!

wmth@Luke:24:29 @ But they pressed Him to remain with them. »Because,« said they, »it is getting towards evening, and the day is nearly over.« So He went in to stay with them.

wmth@Luke:24:30 @ But as soon as He had sat down with them, and had taken the bread and had blessed and broken it, and was handing it to them,

wmth@Luke:24:33 @ So they rose and without an hour's delay returned to Jerusalem, and found the Eleven and the rest met together, who said to them,

wmth@John:1:7 @ He came as a witness, in order that he might give testimony concerning the Light–so that all might believe through him.

wmth@John:1:14 @ And the Word came in the flesh, and lived for a time in our midst, so that we saw His glory–the glory as of the Father's only Son, sent from His presence. He was full of grace and truth.

wmth@John:1:18 @ No human eye has ever seen God: the only Son, who is in the Father's bosom–He has made Him known.

wmth@John:1:19 @ This also is John's testimony, when the Jews sent to him a deputation of Priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him who he was.

wmth@John:1:22 @ So they pressed the question. »Who are you?« they said– »that we may take an answer to those who sent us. What account do you give of yourself?«

wmth@John:1:31 @ I did not yet know Him; but that He may be openly shown to Israel is the reason why I have come baptizing in water.«

wmth@John:1:32 @ John also gave testimony by stating: »I have seen the Spirit coming down like a dove out of Heaven; and it remained upon Him.

wmth@John:1:34 @ »This I have seen, and I have become a witness that He is the Son of God.«

wmth@John:1:39 @ »Come and you shall see,« He said. So they went and saw where He was staying, and they remained and spent that day with Him. It was then about ten o'clock in the morning.

wmth@John:1:42 @ He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, »You are Simon, son of John: you shall be called Cephas« –that is to say, Peter (or `Rock').

wmth@John:1:45 @ Then Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, »We have found him about whom Moses in the Law wrote, as well as the Prophets–Jesus, the son of Joseph, a man of Nazareth.«

wmth@John:1:49 @ »Rabbi,« cried Nathanael, »you are the Son of God, you are Israel's King!«

wmth@John:1:51 @ »I tell you all in most solemn truth,« He added, »that you shall see Heaven opened wide, and God's angels going up, and coming down to the Son of Man.«

wmth@John:2:2 @ and Jesus also was invited and His disciples.

wmth@John:2:8 @ Then He said, »Now, take some out, and carry it to the President of the feast.«

wmth@John:2:9 @ So they carried some to him. And no sooner had the President tasted the water now turned into wine, than –not knowing where it came from, though the attendants who had drawn the water knew– he called to the bridegroom

wmth@John:2:13 @ But the Jewish Passover was approaching, and for this Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

wmth@John:2:15 @ So He plaited a whip of rushes, and drove all –both sheep and bullocks– out of the Temple. The small coin of the brokers He upset on the ground and overturned their tables.

wmth@John:2:18 @ So the Jews asked Him, »What proof of your authority do you exhibit to us, seeing that you do these things?«

wmth@John:2:23 @ Now when He was in Jerusalem, at the Festival of the Passover, many became believers in Him through watching the miracles He performed.

wmth@John:3:3 @ »In most solemn truth I tell you,« answered Jesus, »that unless a man is born anew he cannot see the Kingdom of God.«

wmth@John:3:5 @ »In most solemn truth I tell you,« replied Jesus, »that unless a man is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God.

wmth@John:3:8 @ The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going. So is it with every one who has been born of the Spirit.«

wmth@John:3:11 @ In most solemn truth I tell you that we speak what we know, and give testimony of that of which we were eye-witnesses, and yet you all reject our testimony.

wmth@John:3:13 @ There is no one who has gone up to Heaven, but there is One who has come down from Heaven, namely the Son of Man whose home is in Heaven.

wmth@John:3:14 @ And just as Moses lifted high the serpent in the Desert, so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

wmth@John:3:16 @ For so greatly did God love the world that He gave His only Son, that every one who trusts in Him may not perish but may have the Life of Ages.

wmth@John:3:17 @ For God did not send His Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.

wmth@John:3:18 @ He who trusts in Him does not come up for judgement. He who does not trust has already received sentence, because he has not his trust resting on the name of God's only Son.

wmth@John:3:24 @ (For John was not yet in prison.)

wmth@John:3:26 @ they came to John and reported to him, »Rabbi, he who was with you on the other side of the Jordan and to whom you bore testimony is now baptizing, and great numbers of people are resorting to him.«

wmth@John:3:31 @ He who comes from above is above all. He whose origin is from the earth is not only himself from the earth, his teaching also is from the earth. He who comes from Heaven is above all.

wmth@John:3:33 @ Any man who has received His testimony has solemnly declared that God is true.

wmth@John:3:35 @ The Father loves the Son and has entrusted everything to His hands.

wmth@John:3:36 @ He who believes in the Son has the Life of the Ages; he who disobeys the Son will not enter into Life, but God's anger remains upon him.

wmth@John:4:1 @ Now as soon as the Master was aware that the Pharisees had heard it said, »Jesus is gaining and baptizing more disciples than John«–

wmth@John:4:5 @ and so He came to Sychar, a town in Samaria near the piece of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

wmth@John:4:7 @ Presently there came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus asked her to give Him some water;

wmth@John:4:10 @ »If you had known God's free gift,« replied Jesus, »and who it is that said to you, `Give me some water,' you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.«

wmth@John:4:11 @ »Sir,« she said, »you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep; so where can you get the living water from?

wmth@John:4:12 @ Are you greater than our forefather Jacob, who gave us the well, and himself drank from it, as did also his sons and his cattle?«

wmth@John:4:31 @ Meanwhile the disciples were urging Jesus. »Rabbi,« they said, »eat something.«

wmth@John:4:33 @ So the disciples began questioning one another. »Can it be,« they said, »that some one has brought Him something to eat?«

wmth@John:4:36 @ The reaper gets pay and gathers in a crop in preparation for the Life of the Ages, that so the sower and the reapers may rejoice together.

wmth@John:4:37 @ For it is in this that you see the real meaning of the saying, `The sower is one person, and the reaper is another.'

wmth@John:4:45 @ When however He reached Galilee, the Galilaeans welcomed Him eagerly, having been eye-witnesses of all that He had done in Jerusalem at the Festival; for they also had been to the Festival.

wmth@John:4:46 @ So He came once more to Cana in Galilee, where He had made the water into wine. Now there was a certain officer of the King's court whose son was ill at Capernaum.

wmth@John:4:47 @ Having heard that Jesus had come from Judaea to Galilee, he came to Him and begged Him to go down and cure his son; for he was at the point of death.

wmth@John:4:50 @ »You may return home,« replied Jesus; »your son has recovered.« He believed the words of Jesus, and started back home;

wmth@John:4:51 @ and he was already on his way down when his servants met him and told him that his son was alive and well.

wmth@John:4:52 @ So he inquired of them at what hour he had shown improvement. »Yesterday, about seven o'clock,« they replied, »the fever left him.«

wmth@John:4:53 @ Then the father recollected that that was the time at which Jesus had said to him, »Your son has recovered,« and he and his whole household became believers.

wmth@John:5:3 @ In these there used to lie a great number of sick persons, and of people who were blind or lame or paralyzed.

wmth@John:5:7 @ »Sir,« replied the sufferer, »I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is moved; but while I am coming some one else steps down before me.«

wmth@John:5:10 @ That day was a Sabbath. So the Jews said to the man who had been cured, »It is the Sabbath: you must not carry your mat.«

wmth@John:5:17 @ His reply to their accusation was, »My Father works unceasingly, and so do I.«

wmth@John:5:18 @ On this account then the Jews were all the more eager to put Him to death–because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also spoke of God as being in a special sense His Father, thus putting Himself on a level with God.

wmth@John:5:19 @ »In most solemn truth I tell you,« replied Jesus, »that the Son can do nothing of Himself–He can only do what He sees the Father doing; for whatever He does, that the Son does in like manner.

wmth@John:5:20 @ For the Father loves the Son and reveals to Him all that He Himself is doing. And greater deeds than these will He reveal to Him, in order that you may wonder.

wmth@John:5:21 @ For just as the Father awakens the dead and gives them life, so the Son also gives life to whom He wills.

wmth@John:5:22 @ The Father indeed does not judge any one, but He has entrusted all judgement to the Son,

wmth@John:5:23 @ that all may honour the Son even as they honour the Father. The man who withholds honour from the Son withholds honour from the Father who sent Him.

wmth@John:5:24 @ »In most solemn truth I tell you that he who listens to my teaching and believes Him who sent me, has the Life of the Ages, and does not come under judgement, but has passed over out of death into Life.«

wmth@John:5:25 @ »In most solemn truth I tell you that a time is coming –nay, has already come– when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear it will live.«

wmth@John:5:26 @ For just as the Father has life in Himself, so He has also given to the Son to have life in Himself.

wmth@John:5:27 @ And He has conferred on Him authority to act as Judge, because He is the Son of Man.

wmth@John:5:30 @ »I can of my own self do nothing. As I am bidden, so I judge; and mine is a just judgement, because it is not my own will that guides me, but the will of Him who sent me.«

wmth@John:5:43 @ I have come as my Father's representative, and you do not receive me. If some one else comes representing only himself, him you will receive.

wmth@John:6:4 @ The Jewish Festival, the Passover, was at hand.

wmth@John:6:9 @ »There is a boy here with five barley loaves and a couple of fish: but what is that among so many?«

wmth@John:6:10 @ »Make the people sit down,« said Jesus. The ground was covered with thick grass; so they sat down, the adult men numbering about 5,000.

wmth@John:6:11 @ Then Jesus took the loaves, and after giving thanks He distributed them to those who were resting on the ground; and also the fish in like manner–as much as they desired.

wmth@John:6:12 @ When all were fully satisfied, He said to His disciples, »Gather up the broken portions that remain over, so that nothing be lost.«

wmth@John:6:18 @ The Lake also was getting rough, because a strong wind was blowing.

wmth@John:6:24 @ When however the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they themselves also took boats and came to Capernaum to look for Jesus.

wmth@John:6:25 @ So when they had crossed the Lake and had found Him, they asked Him, »Rabbi, when did you come here?«

wmth@John:6:26 @ »In most solemn truth I tell you,« replied Jesus, »that you are searching for me not because you have seen miracles, but because you ate the loaves and had a hearty meal.

wmth@John:6:27 @ Bestow your pains not on the food which perishes, but on the food that remains unto the Life of the Ages–that food which will be the Son of Man's gift to you; for on Him the Father, God, has set His seal.«

wmth@John:6:32 @ »In most solemn truth I tell you,« replied Jesus, »that Moses did not give you the bread out of Heaven, but my Father is giving you the bread –the true bread– out of Heaven.

wmth@John:6:40 @ For this is my Father's will, that every one who fixes his gaze on the Son of God and believes in Him should have the Life of the Ages, and I will raise him to life on the last day.«

wmth@John:6:42 @ They kept asking, »Is not this man Joseph's son? Is he not Jesus, whose father and mother we know? What does he mean by now saying, `I have come down out of Heaven'?«

wmth@John:6:47 @ »In most solemn truth I tell you that he who believes has the Life of the Ages.

wmth@John:6:53 @ »In most solemn truth I tell you,« said Jesus, »that unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no Life in you.

wmth@John:6:57 @ As the ever-living Father has sent me, and I live because of the Father, so also he who eats me will live because of me.

wmth@John:6:62 @ »Does this seem incredible to you? What then if you were to see the Son of Man ascending again where He was before?

wmth@John:6:64 @ But there are some of you who do not believe.« For Jesus knew from the beginning who those were that did not believe, and who it was that would betray Him.

wmth@John:6:65 @ So He added, »That is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it be granted him by the Father.«

wmth@John:6:66 @ Thereupon many of His disciples left Him and went away, and no longer associated with Him.

wmth@John:6:67 @ Jesus therefore appealed to the Twelve. »Will you go also?« He asked.

wmth@John:6:71 @ He alluded to Judas, the son of Simon the Iscariot. For he it was who, though one of the Twelve, was afterwards to betray Him.

wmth@John:7:3 @ So His brothers said to Him, »Leave these parts and go into Judaea, that not only we but your disciples also may witness the miracles which you perform.

wmth@John:7:10 @ When however His brothers had gone up to the Festival, then He also went up, not openly, but as it were privately.

wmth@John:7:12 @ Among the mass of the people there was much muttered debate about Him. Some said, »He is a good man.« Others said, »Not so: he is imposing on the people.«

wmth@John:7:25 @ Some however of the people of Jerusalem said, »Is not this the man they are wanting to kill?

wmth@John:7:32 @ The Pharisees heard the people thus expressing their various doubts about Him, and the High Priests and the Pharisees sent some officers to apprehend Him.

wmth@John:7:33 @ So Jesus said, »Still for a short time I am with you, and then I go my way to Him who sent me.

wmth@John:7:35 @ The Jews therefore said to one another, »Where is he about to betake himself, so that we shall not find him? Will he betake himself to the Dispersion among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?

wmth@John:7:40 @ After listening to these discourses, some of the crowd began to say, »This is beyond doubt the Prophet.«

wmth@John:7:41 @ Others said, »He is the Christ.« But others again, »Not so, for is the Christ to come from Galilee?

wmth@John:7:43 @ So there was a violent dissension among the people on His account.

wmth@John:7:44 @ Some of them wanted at once to arrest Him, but no one laid hands upon Him.

wmth@John:13:25 @ So he, having his head on Jesus's bosom, leaned back and asked, »Master, who is it?«

wmth@John:13:26 @ »It is the one,« answered Jesus, »for whom I shall dip this piece of bread and to whom I shall give it.« Accordingly He dipped the piece of bread, and took it and gave it to Judas, the son of the Iscariot Simon.

wmth@John:13:29 @ Some, however, supposed that because Judas had the money-box Jesus meant, »Buy what we require for the Festival,« or that he should give something to the poor.

wmth@John:14:9 @ »Have I been so long among you,« Jesus answered, »and yet you, Philip, do not know me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How can ask me, `Cause us to see the Father'?

wmth@John:15:9 @ As the Father has loved me, I have also loved you: continue in my love.

wmth@John:15:16 @ It is not you who chose me, but it is I who chose you and appointed you that you might go and be fruitful and that your fruit might remain; so that whatever petition you present to the Father in my name He may give you.

wmth@John:15:19 @ If you belonged to the world, the world would love its own property. But because you do not belong to the world, and I have chosen you out of the world–for that reason the world hates you.

wmth@John:15:20 @ Bear in mind what I said to you, `A servant is not superior to his master.' If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if they have obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also.

wmth@John:15:23 @ He who hates me hates my Father also.

wmth@John:15:24 @ If I had not done among them, as I have, such miracles as no one else ever did, they would have had no sin; but they have in fact seen and also hated both me and my Father.

wmth@John:15:25 @ But this has been so, in order that the saying may be fulfilled which stands written in their Law,

wmth@John:15:27 @ And you also are witnesses, because you have been with me from the first.

wmth@John:16:17 @ Some of His disciples therefore said to one another, »What does this mean which He is telling us, `A little while and you do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me,' and `Because I am going to the Father'?«

wmth@John:16:18 @ So they asked one another repeatedly, »What can that `little while' mean which He speaks of? We do not understand His words.«

wmth@John:16:20 @ In most solemn truth I tell you that you will weep aloud and lament, but the world will be glad. You will mourn, but your grief will be turned into gladness.

wmth@John:16:21 @ A woman, when she is in labour, has sorrow, because her time has come. But when she has given birth to the babe, she no longer remembers the pain, because of her joy at a child being born into the world.

wmth@John:16:23 @ You will put no questions to me then. »In most solemn truth I tell you that whatever you ask the Father for in my name He will give you.

wmth@John:17:1 @ When Jesus had thus spoken, He raised his eyes towards Heaven and said, »Father, the hour has come. Glorify Thy Son that the Son may glorify Thee;

wmth@John:17:2 @ even as Thou hast given Him authority over all mankind, so that on all whom Thou hast given Him He may bestow the Life of the Ages.

wmth@John:18:2 @ Now Judas also, who at that very time was betraying Him, knew the place, for Jesus had often resorted there with His disciples.

wmth@John:18:3 @ So Judas, followed by the battalion and by a detachment of the Temple police sent by the High Priests and Pharisees, came there with torches and lamps and weapons.

wmth@John:18:5 @ »For Jesus the Nazarene,« was the answer. »I am he,« He replied. (Now Judas who was betraying Him was also standing with them.)

wmth@John:18:6 @ As soon then as He said to them, »I am he,« they went backwards and fell to the ground.

wmth@John:18:11 @ Jesus therefore said to Peter, »Put back your sword. Shall I refuse to drink the cup of sorrow which the Father has given me to drink?«

wmth@John:18:12 @ So the battalion and their tribune and the Jewish police closed in, and took Jesus and bound Him.

wmth@John:18:15 @ Meanwhile Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so also was another disciple. The latter was known to the High Priest, and went in with Jesus into the court of the High Priest's palace.

wmth@John:18:17 @ This led the girl, the portress, to ask Peter, »Are you also one of this man's disciples?«»No, I am not,« he replied.

wmth@John:18:19 @ So the High Priest questioned Jesus about His disciples and His teaching.

wmth@John:18:20 @ »As for me,« replied Jesus, »I have spoken openly to the world. I have continually taught in some synagogue or in the Temple where all the Jews are wont to assemble, and I have said nothing in secret.

wmth@John:18:22 @ Upon His saying this, one of the officers standing by struck Him with his open hand, asking Him as he did so, »Is that the way you answer the High Priest?«

wmth@John:18:24 @ So Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the High Priest.

wmth@John:18:25 @ But Simon Peter remained standing and warming himself, and this led to their asking him, »Are you also one of his disciples?« He denied it, and said, »No, I am not.«

wmth@John:18:28 @ So they brought Jesus from Caiaphas's house to the Praetorium. It was the early morning, and they would not enter the Praetorium themselves for fear of defilement, and in order that they might be able to eat the Passover.

wmth@John:18:36 @ »My kingdom,« replied Jesus, »does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my subjects would have resolutely fought to save me from being delivered up to the Jews. But, as a matter of fact, my kingdom has not this origin.«

wmth@John:18:37 @ »So then are a king!« rejoined Pilate. »Yes,« said Jesus, »you say truly that I am a king. For this purpose I was born, and for this purpose I have come into the world–to give testimony for the truth. Every one who is a friend of the truth listens to my voice.«

wmth@John:18:38 @ »What is truth?« said Pilate. But no sooner had he spoken the words than he went out again to the Jews and told them, »I find no crime in him.

wmth@John:18:39 @ But you have a custom that I should release one prisoner to you at the Passover. So shall I release to you the King of the Jews?«

wmth@John:19:2 @ And the soldiers, twisting twigs of thorn into a wreath, put it on His head, and threw round Him a crimson cloak.

wmth@John:19:5 @ So Jesus came out, wearing the wreath of thorns and the crimson cloak. And Pilate said to them, »See, there is the man.«

wmth@John:19:6 @ As soon then as the High Priests and the officers saw Him, they shouted »To the cross! To the cross!« »Take him yourselves and crucify him,« said Pilate; »for I, at any rate, find no crime in him.«

wmth@John:19:7 @ »We,« replied the Jews, »have a Law, and in accordance with that Law he ought to die, for having claimed to be the Son of God.«

wmth@John:19:8 @ More alarmed than ever, Pilate no sooner heard these words than he re-entered the Praetorium and began to question Jesus.

wmth@John:19:14 @ It was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about six o'clock in the morning. Then he said to the Jews, »There is your king!«

wmth@John:19:23 @ So the soldiers, as soon as they had crucified Jesus, took His garments, including His tunic, and divided them into four parts–one part for each soldier. The tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece.

wmth@John:19:24 @ So they said to one another, »Do not let us tear it. Let us draw lots for it.« This happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says, That was just what the soldiers did.

wmth@John:19:26 @ So Jesus, seeing His mother, and seeing the disciple whom He loved standing near, said to His mother, »Behold, your son!«

wmth@John:19:29 @ There was a jar of wine standing there. With this wine they filled a sponge, put it on the end of a stalk of hyssop, and lifted it to His mouth.

wmth@John:19:30 @ As soon as Jesus had taken the wine, He said, »It is finished.« And then, bowing His head, He yielded up His spirit.

wmth@John:19:31 @ Meanwhile the Jews, because it was the day of Preparation for the Passover, and in order that the bodies might not remain on the crosses during the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was one of special solemnity), requested Pilate to have the legs of the dying men broken, and the bodies removed.

wmth@John:19:32 @ Accordingly the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man and also of the other who had been crucified with Jesus.

wmth@John:19:34 @ One of the soldiers, however, made a thrust at His side with a lance, and immediately blood and water flowed out.

wmth@John:19:35 @ This statement is the testimony of an eye-witness, and it is true. He knows that he is telling the truth–in order that you also may believe.

wmth@John:19:38 @ After this, Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but for fear of the Jews a secret disciple, asked Pilate's permission to carry away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave. So he came and removed the body.

wmth@John:19:42 @ Therefore, because it was the day of Preparation for the Jewish Passover, and the tomb was close at hand, they put Jesus there.

wmth@John:20:2 @ So she ran, as fast as she could, to find Simon Peter and the other disciple –the one who was dear to Jesus– and to tell them, »They have taken the Master out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have put Him.«

wmth@John:20:6 @ Simon Peter, however, also came, following him, and entered the tomb. There on the ground he saw the cloths;

wmth@John:20:8 @ Then the other disciple, who had been the first to come to the tomb, also went in and saw and was convinced.

wmth@John:20:20 @ Having said this He showed them His hands and also His side; and the disciples were filled with joy at seeing the Master.

wmth@John:20:21 @ A second time, therefore, He said to them, »Peace be to you! As the Father sent me, I also now send you.«

wmth@John:20:23 @ If you remit the sins of any persons, they remain remitted to them. If you bind fast the sins of any, they remain bound.«

wmth@John:20:25 @ So the rest of the disciples told him, »We have seen the Master!« His reply was, »Unless I see in his hands the wound made by the nails and put my finger into the wound, and put my hand into his side, I will never believe it.«

wmth@John:20:30 @ There were also a great number of other signs which Jesus performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not recorded in this book.

wmth@John:20:31 @ But these have been recorded in order that you may believe that He is the Christ, the Son of God, and that, through believing, you may have Life through His name.

wmth@John:21:2 @ Simon Peter was with Thomas, called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zabdi, and two others of the Master's disciples.

wmth@John:21:3 @ Simon Peter said to them, »I am going fishing.«»We will go too,« said they. So they set out and went on board their boat; but they caught nothing that night.

wmth@John:21:6 @ »Throw the net in on the right hand side,« He said, »and you will find fish.« So they threw the net in, and now they could scarcely drag it along for the quantity of fish.

wmth@John:21:9 @ As soon as they landed, they saw a charcoal fire burning there, with fish broiling on it, and bread close by.

wmth@John:21:10 @ Jesus told them to fetch some of the fish which they had just caught.

wmth@John:21:11 @ So Simon Peter went on board the boat and drew the net ashore full of large fish, 153 in number; and yet, although there were so many, the net had not broken.

wmth@John:21:13 @ Then Jesus came and took the bread and gave them some, and the fish in the same way.

wmth@John:21:15 @ When they had finished breakfast, Jesus asked Simon Peter, »Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these others do?«»Yes, Master,« was his answer; »you know that you are dear to me.« »Then feed my lambs,« replied Jesus.

wmth@John:21:16 @ Again a second time He asked him, »Simon, son of John, do you love me?«»Yes, Master,« he said, »you know that you are dear to me.«»Then be a shepherd to my sheep,« He said.

wmth@John:21:17 @ A third time Jesus put the question:»Simon, son of John, am I dear to you?« It grieved Peter that Jesus asked him the third time, »Am I dear to you?«»Master,« he replied, »you know everything, you can see that you are dear to me.«»Then feed my much-loved sheep,« said Jesus.

wmth@John:21:18 @ »In most solemn truth I tell you that whereas, when you were young, you used to put on your girdle and walk whichever way you chose, when you have grown old you will stretch out your arms and some one else will put a girdle round you and carry you where you have no wish to go.«

wmth@John:21:25 @ But there are also many other things which Jesus did–so vast a number indeed that if they were all described in detail, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would have to be written.
