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:2:8 @ He then directed them to go to Bethlehem, adding, »Go and make careful inquiry about the child, and when you have found him, bring me word, that I too may come and do him homage.«

wmth@Matthew:2:13 @ When they were gone, and angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, »Rise: take the babe and His mother and escape to Egypt, and remain there till I bring you word. For Herod is about to make search for the child in order to destroy Him.«

wmth@Matthew:3:7 @ But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he exclaimed, `O vipers' brood, who has warned you to flee from the coming wrath?

wmth@Matthew:3:8 @ Therefore let your lives prove your change of heart;

wmth@Matthew:3:9 @ and do not imagine that you can say to yourselves, `We have Abraham as our forefather,' for I tell you that God can raise up descendants for Abraham from these stones.

wmth@Matthew:3:11 @ I indeed am baptizing you in water on a profession of repentance; but He who is coming after me is mightier than I: His sandals I am not worthy to carry for a moment; He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire.

wmth@Matthew:3:14 @ John protested. »It is I,« he said, »who have need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?«

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:4:9 @ and said to Him, »All this I will give you, if you will kneel down and do me homage.«

wmth@Matthew:4:19 @ And He said to them, »Come and follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.«

wmth@Matthew:5:11 @ »Blessed are you when they have insulted and persecuted you, and have said every cruel thing about you falsely for my sake.

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:5:20 @ For I assure you that unless your righteousness greatly surpasses that of the Scribes and the Pharisees, you will certainly not find entrance into the Kingdom of the Heavens.

wmth@Matthew:5:21 @ »You have heard that it was said to the ancients, and whoever commits murder will be answerable to the magistrate.«

wmth@Matthew:5:22 @ But I say to you that every one who becomes angry with his brother shall be answerable to the magistrate; that whoever says to his brother `Raca,' shall be answerable to the Sanhedrin; and that whoever says, `You fool!' shall be liable to the Gehenna of Fire.

wmth@Matthew:5:23 @ If therefore when you are offering your gift upon the altar, you remember that your brother has a grievance against you,

wmth@Matthew:5:24 @ leave your gift there before the altar, and go and make friends with your brother first, and then return and proceed to offer your gift.

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:5:27 @ »You have heard that it was said, «

wmth@Matthew:5:28 @ But I tell you that whoever looks at a woman and cherishes lustful thoughts has already in his heart become guilty with regard to her.

wmth@Matthew:5:29 @ If therefore your eye, even the right eye, is a snare to you, tear it out and away with it; it is better for you that one member should be destroyed rather than that your whole body should be thrown into Gehenna.

wmth@Matthew:5:30 @ And if your right hand is a snare to you, cut it off and away with it; it is better for you that one member should be destroyed rather than that your whole body should go into Gehenna.

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:5:33 @ »Again, you have heard that it was said to the ancients, «

wmth@Matthew:5:34 @ But I tell you not to swear at all; neither by Heaven, for it is God's throne;

wmth@Matthew:5:36 @ And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black.

wmth@Matthew:5:37 @ But let your language be, `Yes, yes,' or `No, no.' Anything in excess of this comes from the Evil one.

wmth@Matthew:5:38 @ »You have heard that it was said, «

wmth@Matthew:5:39 @ But I tell you not to resist a wicked man, but if any one strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other to him as well.

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:5:41 @ And whoever shall compel you to convey his goods one mile, go with him two.

wmth@Matthew:5:43 @ »You have heard that it was said, and hate thine enemy.'«

wmth@Matthew:5:44 @ But I command you all, love your enemies, and pray for your persecutors;

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:5:46 @ For if you love only those who love you, what reward have you earned? Do not even the tax-gatherers do that?

wmth@Matthew:5:47 @ And if you salute only your near relatives, what praise is due to you? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?

wmth@Matthew:5:48 @ You however are to be complete in goodness, as your Heavenly Father is complete.

wmth@Matthew:6:1 @ »But beware of doing your good actions in the sight of men, in order to attract their gaze; if you do, there is no reward for you with your Father who is in Heaven.«

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:6:3 @ But when you are giving in charity, let not your left hand perceive what your right hand is doing,

wmth@Matthew:6:4 @ that your charities may be in secret; and then your Father –He who sees in secret– will recompense you.

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:6:6 @ But you, whenever you pray, go into your own room and shut the door: then pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father –He who sees in secret– will recompense you.

wmth@Matthew:6:8 @ Do not, however, imitate them; for your Father knows what things you need before ever you ask Him.

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

wmth@Matthew:6:15 @ but if you do not forgive others their offences, neither will your Father forgive yours.

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:6:17 @ But, whenever you fast, pour perfume on your hair and wash your face,

wmth@Matthew:6:18 @ that it may not be apparent to men that you are fasting, but to your Father who is in secret; and your Father –He who sees in secret– will recompense you.

wmth@Matthew:6:19 @ »Do not lay up stores of wealth for yourselves on earth, where the moth and wear-and-tear destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.«

wmth@Matthew:6:20 @ But amass wealth for yourselves in Heaven, where neither the moth nor wear-and-tear destroys, and where thieves do not break in and steal.

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

wmth@Matthew:6:22 @ »The eye is the lamp of the body. If then your eyesight is good, your whole body will be well lighted;«

wmth@Matthew:6:23 @ but if your eyesight is bad, your whole body will be dark. If however the very light within you is darkness, how dense must the darkness be!

wmth@Matthew:6:24 @ »No man can be the bondservant of two masters; for either he will dislike one and like the other, or he will attach himself to one and think slightingly of the other. You cannot be the bondservants both of God and of gold.«

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:6:27 @ Which of you by being over-anxious can add a single foot to his height?

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:6:32 @ For all these are questions that Gentiles are always asking; but your Heavenly Father knows that you need these things–all of them.

wmth@Matthew:6:33 @ But make His Kingdom and righteousness your chief aim, and then these things shall all be given you in addition.

wmth@Matthew:7:1 @ »Judge not, that you may not be judged;«

wmth@Matthew:7:2 @ for your own judgement will be dealt –and your own measure meted– to yourselves.

wmth@Matthew:7:3 @ And why do you look at the splinter in your brother's eye, and not notice the beam which is in your own eye?

wmth@Matthew:7:4 @ Or how say to your brother, `Allow me to take the splinter out of your eye,' while the beam is in your own eye?

wmth@Matthew:7:5 @ Hypocrite, first take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly how to remove the splinter from your brother's eye.

wmth@Matthew:7:6 @ »Give not that which is holy to the dogs, nor throw your pearls to the swine; otherwise they will trample them under their feet and then turn and attack you.«

wmth@Matthew:7:7 @ »Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.«

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:7:11 @ If you then, imperfect as you are, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in Heaven give good things to those who ask Him!

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:7:15 @ »Beware of the false teachers–men who come to you in sheep's fleeces, but beneath that disguise they are ravenous wolves.«

wmth@Matthew:7:16 @ By their fruits you will easily recognize them. Are grapes gathered from thorns or figs from brambles?

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

wmth@Matthew:7:23 @ And then I will tell them plainly, »`I never knew you: begone from me, you doers of wickedness.'

wmth@Matthew:8:2 @ And a leper came to Him, and throwing himself at His feet, said, »Sir, if only you are willing you are able to cleanse me.«

wmth@Matthew:8:4 @ and Jesus said to him, »Be careful to tell no one, but go and show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses appointed as evidence for them.«

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:8:10 @ 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:8:11 @ And I tell you that many will come from the east and from the west and will recline at table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the Kingdom of the Heavens,

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:8:19 @ when a Scribe came and said to Him, »Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.«

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:9:2 @ Here they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. Seeing their faith Jesus said to the paralytic, »Take courage, my child; your sins are pardoned.«

wmth@Matthew:9:4 @ Knowing their thoughts Jesus said, »Why are you cherishing evil thoughts in your hearts?

wmth@Matthew:9:5 @ Why, which is easier? –to say, `Your sins are pardoned,' or to say `Rise up and walk'?

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:9:11 @ The Pharisees noticed this, and they inquired of His disciples, »Why does your Teacher eat with the tax-gatherers and notorious sinners?«

wmth@Matthew:9:14 @ At that time John's disciples came and asked Jesus, »Why do we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not?«

wmth@Matthew:9:18 @ While He was thus speaking, a Ruler came up and profoundly bowing said, »My daughter is just dead; but come and put your hand upon her and she will return to life.«

wmth@Matthew:9:22 @ And Jesus turned and saw her, and said, »Take courage, daughter; your faith has cured you.« And the woman was restored to health from that moment.

wmth@Matthew:9:28 @ And when He had gone indoors, they came to Him. »Do you believe that I can do this?« He asked them. »Yes, Sir,« they replied.

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

wmth@Matthew:10:7 @ And as you go, preach and say, `The Kingdom of the Heavens is close at hand.'

wmth@Matthew:10:8 @ Cure the sick, raise the dead to life, cleanse lepers, drive out demons: you have received without payment, give without payment.

wmth@Matthew:10:9 @ »Provide no gold, nor even silver nor copper to carry in your pockets;«

wmth@Matthew:10:10 @ no bag for your journey, nor change of linen, nor shoes, nor stick; for the labourer deserves his food.

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:10:12 @ When you enter the house, salute it;

wmth@Matthew:10:13 @ and if the house deserves it, the peace you invoke shall come upon it. If not, your peace shall return to you.

wmth@Matthew:10:14 @ And whoever refuses to receive you or even to listen to your Message, as you leave that house or town, shake off the very dust from your feet.

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:10:16 @ »Remember it is I who am sending you out, as sheep into the midst of wolves; prove yourselves as sagacious as serpents, and as innocent as doves.«

wmth@Matthew:10:17 @ But beware of men; for they will deliver you up to appear before Sanhedrins, and will flog you in their synagogues;

wmth@Matthew:10:18 @ and you will even be put on trial before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness to them and to the Gentiles.

wmth@Matthew:10:19 @ But when they have delivered you up, have no anxiety as to how you shall speak or what you shall say; for at that very time it shall be given you what to say;

wmth@Matthew:10:20 @ for it is not you who will speak: it will be the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

wmth@Matthew:10:22 @ And you will be objects of universal hatred because you are called by my name; but he who holds out to the End–he will be saved.

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:10:27 @ What I tell you in the dark, speak in the light; and what is whispered into your ear, proclaim upon the roofs of the houses.

wmth@Matthew:10:29 @ Do not two sparrows sell for a halfpenny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father's leave.

wmth@Matthew:10:30 @ But as for you, the very hairs on your heads are all numbered.

wmth@Matthew:10:31 @ Away then with fear; you are more precious than a multitude of sparrows.

wmth@Matthew:10:39 @ To save your life is to lose it, and to lose your life for my sake is to save it.

wmth@Matthew:10:40 @ »Whoever receives you receives me, and whoever receives me receives Him who sent 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:11:3 @ »Are you the Coming One, or is it a different person that we are to expect?«

wmth@Matthew:11:4 @ »Go and report to John what you see and hear,« replied Jesus;«

wmth@Matthew:11:7 @ When the messengers had taken their leave, Jesus proceeded to say to the multitude concerning John, »What did you go out into the Desert to gaze at? A reed waving in the wind?

wmth@Matthew:11:8 @ But what did you go out to see? A man luxuriously dressed? Those who wear luxurious clothes are to be found in kings' palaces.

wmth@Matthew:11:9 @ But why did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and far more than a prophet.

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:11:14 @ And (if you are willing to receive it) he is the Elijah who was to come.

wmth@Matthew:11:17 @ »`We have played the flute to you,' they say, `and you have not danced: we have sung dirges, and you have not beaten your breasts.'«

wmth@Matthew:11:21 @ »Alas for thee, Chorazin!« He cried. »Alas for thee, Bethsaida! For had the mighty works been done in Tyre and Sidon which have been done in both of you, they would long ere now have repented, covered with sackcloth and ashes.

wmth@Matthew:11:22 @ Only I tell you that it will be more endurable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of Judgement than for you.

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:11:28 @ »Come to me, all you toiling and burdened ones, and will give you rest.

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:12:2 @ But the Pharisees saw it and said to Him, »Look! your disciples are doing what the Law forbids them to do on the Sabbath.«

wmth@Matthew:12:3 @ »Have you never read,« He replied, »what David did when he and his men were hungry?

wmth@Matthew:12:5 @ And have you not read in the Law how on the Sabbath the priests in the Temple break the Sabbath without incurring guilt?

wmth@Matthew:12:6 @ But I tell you that there is here that which is greater than the Temple.

wmth@Matthew:12:7 @ And if you knew what this means,, you would not have condemned those who are without guilt.

wmth@Matthew:12:11 @ »Which of you is there,« He replied, »who, if he has but a single sheep and it falls into a hole on the Sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out?

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:12:27 @ And if it is by Baal-zebul's power that I expel the demons, by whose power do your disciples expel them? They therefore shall be your judges.

wmth@Matthew:12:28 @ But if it is by the power of the Spirit of God that I expel the demons, it is evident that the Kingdom of God has come upon you.

wmth@Matthew:12:31 @ This is why I tell you that men may find forgiveness for every other sin and impious word, but that for impious speaking against the Holy Spirit they shall find no forgiveness.

wmth@Matthew:12:34 @ O vipers' brood, how can you speak what is good when you are evil? For it is from the overflow of the heart that the mouth speaks.

wmth@Matthew:12:36 @ But I tell you that for every careless word that men shall speak they will be held accountable on the day of Judgement.

wmth@Matthew:12:37 @ For each of you by his words shall be justified, or by his words shall be condemned.«

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

wmth@Matthew:13:10 @ (And His disciples came and asked Him, »Why do you speak to them in figurative language?«

wmth@Matthew:13:11 @ »Because,« He replied, »while to you it is granted to know the secrets of the Kingdom of the Heavens, to them it is not.

wmth@Matthew:13:16 @ »But as for you, blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear.«

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:13:27 @ 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:13:29 @ »`No,' he replied, `for fear that while collecting the darnel you should at the same time root up the wheat with it.

wmth@Matthew:13:51 @ »Have you understood all this?« He asked. »Yes,« they said.

wmth@Matthew:14:4 @ because John had persistently said to him, »It is not lawful for you to have her.«

wmth@Matthew:14:11 @ The head was brought on a dish and given to the young girl, and she took it to her mother.

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

wmth@Matthew:14:28 @ »Master,« answered Peter, »if it is you, bid me come to you upon the water.«

wmth@Matthew:14:31 @ Instantly Jesus stretched out His hand and caught hold of him, saying to him, »O little faith, why did you doubt?«

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

wmth@Matthew:15:2 @ »Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the Elders by not washing their hands before meals?«

wmth@Matthew:15:3 @ »Why do you, too,« He retorted, »transgress God's commands for the sake of your tradition?

wmth@Matthew:15:5 @ but you –this is what you say: `If a man says to his father or mother, That is consecrated, whatever it is, which otherwise you should have received from me–

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:15:7 @ Hypocrites! well did Isaiah prophesy of you,

wmth@Matthew:15:12 @ Then His disciples came and said to Him, »Do you know that the Pharisees were greatly shocked when they heard those words?«

wmth@Matthew:15:16 @ »Are even you,« He answered, »still without intellingence?

wmth@Matthew:15:17 @ Do you not understand that whatever enters the mouth passes into the stomach and is afterwards ejected from the body?

wmth@Matthew:15:28 @ »O woman,« replied Jesus, »great is your faith: be it done to you as you desire.« And from that moment her daughter was restored to health.

wmth@Matthew:15:34 @ »How many loaves have you?« Jesus asked. »Seven,« they said, »and a few small fish.«

wmth@Matthew:16:2 @ He replied, »In the evening you say, `It will be fine weather, for the sky is red;'

wmth@Matthew:16:3 @ and in the morning, `It will be rough weather to-day, for the sky is red and murky.' You learn how to distinguish the aspect of the heavens, but the signs of the times you cannot.

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:16:9 @ Do you not yet understand? nor even remember the 5,000 and the five loaves, and how many basketfuls you carried away,

wmth@Matthew:16:10 @ nor the 4,000 and the seven loaves, and how many hampers you carried away?

wmth@Matthew:16:11 @ How is it you do not understand that it was not about bread that I spoke to you? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.«

wmth@Matthew:16:15 @ »But you, who do you say that I am?« He asked again.

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

wmth@Matthew:16:17 @ »Blessed are you, Simon Bar-jonah,« said Jesus; »for mere human nature has not revealed this to you, but my Father in Heaven.

wmth@Matthew:16:18 @ And I declare to you that you are Peter, and that upon this Rock I will build my Church, and the might of Hades shall not triumph over it.

wmth@Matthew:16:19 @ I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of the Heavens; and whatever you bind on earth shall remain bound in Heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall remain loosed in Heaven.«

wmth@Matthew:16:22 @ Then Peter took Him aside and began taking Him to task. »Master,« he said, »God forbid; this will not be your lot.«

wmth@Matthew:16:23 @ But He turned and said to Peter, »Get behind me, Adversary; you are a hindrance to me, because your thoughts are not God's thoughts, but men's.«

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:17:4 @ Then Peter said to Jesus, »Master, we are thankful to you that we are here. If you approve, I will put up three tents here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.«

wmth@Matthew:17:7 @ But Jesus came and touched them, and said, »Rouse yourselves and have no fear.«

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:17:16 @ I have brought him to your disciples, and they have not been able to cure him.«

wmth@Matthew:17:17 @ »O unbelieving and perverse generation!« replied Jesus; »how long shall I be with you? how long shall I endure you? Bring him to me.«

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:17:24 @ After their arrival at Capernaum the collectors of the half-shekel came and asked Peter, »Does not your Teacher pay the half-shekel?«

wmth@Mark:1:44 @ and saying, »Be careful not to tell any one, but go and show yourself to the Priest, and for your purification present the offerings that Moses appointed as evidence for them.«

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

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:2:9 @ Which is easier?–to say to this paralytic, `Your sins are pardoned,' or to say, `Rise, take up your mat, and walk?'

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:2:11 @ »To you I say, `Rise, take up your mat and go home.'«

wmth@Mark:2:18 @ (Now John's disciples and those of the Pharisees were keeping a fast.) And they came and asked Him, »How is it that John's disciples and those of the Pharisees are fasting, and yours are not?«

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

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:5:19 @ But He would not allow it. »Go home to your family,« He said, »and report to them all that the Lord has done for you, and the mercy He has shown you.«

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: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:7:6 @ »Rightly did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites,« He replied; »as it is written,«

wmth@Mark:7:8 @ »You neglect God's Commandment: you hold fast to men's traditions.«

wmth@Mark:7:9 @ »Praiseworthy indeed!« He added, »to set at nought God's Commandment in order to observe your own traditions!

wmth@Mark:7:13 @ thus nullifying God's precept by your tradition which you have handed down. And many things of that kind you do.«

wmth@Mark:7:14 @ Then Jesus called the people to Him again. »Listen to me, all of you,« He said, »and understand.

wmth@Mark:8:5 @ »How many loaves have you?« He asked. »Seven,« they said.

wmth@Mark:8:15 @ and when He admonished them, »See to it, be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod,«

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:8:19 @ When I broke up the five loaves for the 5,000 men, how many baskets did you carry away full of broken portions? »Twelve,« they said.

wmth@Mark:8:20 @ »And when the seven for the 4,000, how many hampers full of portions did you take away?« »Seven,« they answered.

wmth@Mark:8:21 @ »Do you not yet understand?« He said.

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:8:29 @ Then He asked them pointedly, »But you yourselves, who do you say that I am?«»You are the Christ,« answered Peter.

wmth@Mark:8:33 @ But turning round and seeing His disciples, He rebuked Peter. »Get behind me, Adversary,« He said, »for your thoughts are not God's thoughts, but men's.«

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:9:13 @ 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:9:16 @ »What is the subject you are discussing?« He asked them.

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:9:18 @ and wherever it comes upon him, it dashes him to the ground, and he foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth, and he is pining away. I begged your disciples to expel it, but they had not the power.«

wmth@Mark:9:19 @ »O unbelieving generation!« replied Jesus; »how long must I be with you? how long must I have patience with you? Bring the boy to me.«

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:9:22 @ »and often it has thrown him into the fire or into pools of water to destroy him. But, if you possibly can, have pity on us and help us.«

wmth@Mark:9:25 @ Then Jesus, seeing that an increasing crowd was running towards Him, rebuked the foul spirit, and said to it, »Dumb and deaf spirit, command you, come out of him and never enter into him 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:9:36 @ And taking a young child He made him stand in their midst, then threw His arms round him and said,

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:9:38 @ »Rabbi,« said John to Him, »we saw a man making use of your name to expel demons, and we tried to hinder him, on the ground that he did not follow us.«

wmth@Mark:9:39 @ »You should not have tried to hinder him,« replied Jesus, »for there is no one who will use my name to perform a miracle and be able the next minute to speak evil of me.

wmth@Mark:10:5 @ »It was in consideration of your stubborn hearts,« said Jesus, »that Moses enacted this law for you;

wmth@Mark:10:13 @ One day people were bringing young children to Jesus for Him to touch them, but the disciples interfered.

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:10:18 @ »Why do you call me good?« asked Jesus in reply; »there is no one truly good except One–that is, God.

wmth@Mark:10:19 @ You know the Commandments–

wmth@Mark:10:20 @ »Rabbi,« he replied, »all these Commandments I have carefully obeyed from my youth.«

wmth@Mark:10:21 @ Then Jesus looked at him and loved him, and said, »One thing is lacking in you: go, sell all you possess and give the proceeds to the poor, and you shall have riches in Heaven; and come and be a follower of mine.«

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:10:35 @ 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:10:36 @ »What would you have me do for you?« He asked.

wmth@Mark:10:37 @ »Allow us,« they replied, »to sit one at your right hand and the other at your left hand, in your glory.«

wmth@Mark:10:38 @ »You know not,« said He, »what you are asking. Are you able to drink out of the cup from which I am to drink, or to be baptized with the baptism with which I am to be baptized?«

wmth@Mark:10:39 @ »We are able,« they replied. »Out of the cup,« said Jesus, »from which I am to drink you shall drink, and with the baptism with which I am to be baptized you shall be baptized;

wmth@Mark:10:42 @ Jesus, however, called them to Him and said to them, »You are aware how those who are deemed rulers among the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men make them feel their authority;

wmth@Mark:10:44 @ and whoever desires to be first among you must be the bondservant of all.

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:10:51 @ »What shall I do for you?« said Jesus. »Rabboni,« replied the blind man, »let me recover my sight.«

wmth@Mark:10:52 @ »Go,« said Jesus, »your faith has cured you.« Instantly he regained his sight, and followed Him along the road.

wmth@Mark:11:2 @ »Go,« He said, »to the village facing you, and immediately on entering it you will find an ass's foal tied up which no one has ever yet ridden: untie him and bring him here.

wmth@Mark:11:3 @ And if any one asks you, `Why are you doing that?' say, `The Master needs it, and will send it back here without delay.'«

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:11:17 @ And He remonstrated with them. »Is it not written,« He said, But you have made it what it now is–

wmth@Mark:11:21 @ and Peter, recollecting, said to Him, »Look, Rabbi, the fig-tree which you cursed is withered up.«

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:11:24 @ That is why I tell you, as to whatever you pray and make request for, if you believe that you have received it it shall be yours.

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:11:28 @ and asked, »By what authority are you doing these things? and who gave you authority to do them?«

wmth@Mark:11:29 @ »And I will put a question to you,« replied Jesus; »answer me, and then I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

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:12:10 @ »Have you not read even this passage,« He added,

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:12:24 @ »Is not this the cause of your error,« replied Jesus– your ignorance alike of the Scriptures and of the power of God?

wmth@Mark:12:26 @ But as to the dead, that they rise to life, have you never read in the Book of Moses, in the passage about the Bush, how God said to him,

wmth@Mark:12:27 @ He is not the God of dead, but of living men. You are in grave error.«

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

wmth@Mark:12:34 @ Perceiving that the Scribe had answered wisely Jesus said to him, »You are not far from the Kingdom of God.« No one from that time forward ventured to put any question to Him.

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:13:2 @ »You see all these great buildings?« Jesus replied; »not one stone will be left here upon another–not thrown down.«

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

wmth@Mark:13:7 @ But when you hear of wars and rumours of wars, do not be alarmed: come they must, but the End is not yet.

wmth@Mark:13:9 @ »You yourselves must be on your guard. They will deliver you up to Sanhedrins; you will be brought into synagogues and cruelly beaten; and you will stand before governors and kings for my sake, to be witnesses to them for me.«

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:13:33 @ Take care, be on the alert, and pray; for you do not know when it will happen.

wmth@Mark:13:35 @ Be wakeful therefore, for you know not when the master of the house is coming–in the evening, at midnight, at cock-crow, or at dawn.

wmth@Mark:13:36 @ Beware lest He should arrive unexpectedly and find you asleep.

wmth@Mark:13:37 @ Moreover, what I say to you I say to all–Be wakeful!«

wmth@Mark:14:64 @ You all heard his impious words. What is your judgement?« Then with one voice they condemned Him as deserving of death.

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:14:68 @ But he denied it, and said, »I don't know –I don't understand– What do you mean?« And then he went out into the outer court. Just then a cock crowed.

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:14:71 @ But he broke out into curses and oaths, declaring, »I know nothing of the man you are talking about.«

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:15:4 @ Pilate again and again asked Him, »Do you make no reply? Listen to the many charges they are bringing against you.«

wmth@Mark:15:9 @ »Shall I release for you the King of the Jews?« answered Pilate.

wmth@John:13:37 @ »Master,« asked Peter again, »why cannot I follow you now? I will lay down my life on your behalf.

wmth@John:13:38 @ »You say you will lay down your life on my behalf!« said Jesus; »in most solemn truth I tell you that the cock will not crow before you have three times disowned me.«

wmth@John:14:1 @ »Let not your hearts be troubled. Trust in God: trust in me also.

wmth@John:14:2 @ In my Father's house there are many resting-places. Were it otherwise, I would have told you; for I am going to make ready a place for you.

wmth@John:14:3 @ And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will return and take you to be with me, that where I am you also may be.

wmth@John:14:4 @ And where I am going, you all know the way.«

wmth@John:14:5 @ »Master,« said Thomas, »we do not know where you are going. In what sense do we know the way?«

wmth@John:14:7 @ If you –all of you– knew me, you would fully know my Father also. From this time forward you know Him and have seen Him.«

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:14:10 @ Do you not believe that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me? The things that I tell you all I do not speak on my own authority: but the Father dwelling within me carries on His own work.

wmth@John:14:11 @ Believe me, all of you, that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me; or at any rate, believe me because of what I do.

wmth@John:14:12 @ In most solemn truth I tell you that he who trusts in me–the things which I do he shall do also; and greater things than these he shall do, because I am going to the Father.

wmth@John:14:13 @ And whatever any of you ask in my name, I will do, in order that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

wmth@John:14:14 @ If you make any request of me in my name, I will do it.

wmth@John:14:15 @ »If you love me, you will obey my commandments.

wmth@John:14:16 @ And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate to be for ever with you–the Spirit of truth.

wmth@John:14:17 @ That Spirit the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him. You know Him, because He remains by your side and is in you.

wmth@John:14:18 @ I will not leave you bereaved: I am coming to you.

wmth@John:14:19 @ Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me: because I live, you also shall live.

wmth@John:14:20 @ At that time you will know that I am in my Father, and that you are in me, and that I am in you.

wmth@John:14:22 @ Judas (not the Iscariot) asked, »Master, how is it that you will reveal yourself clearly to us and not to the world?«

wmth@John:14:24 @ He who has no love for me does not obey my teaching; and yet the teaching to which you are listening is not mine, but is the teaching of the Father who sent me.

wmth@John:14:25 @ »All this I have spoken to you while still with you.«

wmth@John:14:26 @ But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send at my request, will teach you everything, and will bring to your memories all that I have said to you.

wmth@John:14:27 @ Peace I leave with you: my own peace I give to you. It is not as the world gives its greetings that I give you peace. Let not your hearts be troubled or dismayed.

wmth@John:14:28 @ »You heard me say to you, `I am going away, and yet I am coming to you.' If you loved me, you would have rejoiced because I am going to the Father; for the Father is greater than I am.

wmth@John:14:29 @ I have now told you before it comes to pass, that when it has come to pass you may believe.

wmth@John:14:30 @ In future I shall not talk much with you, for the Prince of this world is coming. And yet in me he has nothing;

wmth@John:15:3 @ Already you are cleansed–through the teaching which I have given you.

wmth@John:15:4 @ Continue in me, and let me continue in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself –that is, if it does not continue in the vine– so neither can you if you do not continue in me.

wmth@John:15:5 @ I am the Vine, you are the branches. He who continues in me and in whom I continue bears abundant fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

wmth@John:15:7 @ »If you continue in me and my sayings continue in you, ask what you will and it shall be done for you.«

wmth@John:15:8 @ By this is God glorified–by your bearing abundant fruit and thus being true disciples of mine.

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

wmth@John:15:10 @ If you obey my commands, you will continue in my love, as I have obeyed my Father's commands and continue in His love.

wmth@John:15:11 @ »These things I have spoken to you in order that I may have joy in you, and that your joy may become perfect.«

wmth@John:15:12 @ This is my commandment to you, to love one another as I have loved you.

wmth@John:15:14 @ You are my friends, if you do what I command you.

wmth@John:15:15 @ No longer do I call you servants, because a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, because all that I have heard from the Father I have made known to you.

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:15:17 @ »Thus I command you to love one another.«

wmth@John:15:18 @ If the world hates you, remember that it has first had me as the fixed object of its hatred.

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:15:21 @ But they will inflict all this suffering upon you on account of your bearing my name–because they do not know Him who sent me.

wmth@John:15:26 @ »When the Advocate is come whom I will send to you from the Father's presence –the Spirit of Truth who comes forth from the Father's presence– He will be a witness concerning me.«

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

wmth@John:16:1 @ »These things I have spoken to you in order to clear stumbling-blocks out of your path.«

wmth@John:16:2 @ You will be excluded from the synagogues; nay more, the time is coming when any one who has murdered one of you will suppose he is offering service to God.

wmth@John:16:4 @ But I have spoken these things to you in order that when the time for their accomplishment comes you may remember them, and may recollect that I told you. I did not, however, tell you all this at first, because I was still with you.

wmth@John:16:5 @ But now I an returning to Him who sent me; and not one of you asks me where I am going.

wmth@John:16:6 @ But grief has filled your hearts because I have said all this to you.

wmth@John:16:7 @ »Yet it is the truth that I am telling you–it is to your advantage that I go away. For unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.«

wmth@John:16:10 @ of righteousness, because I am going to the Father, and you will no longer see me;

wmth@John:16:12 @ »I have much more to say to you, but you are unable at present to bear the burden of it.«

wmth@John:16:13 @ But when He has come –the Spirit of Truth– He will guide you into all the truth. For He will not speak as Himself originating what He says, but all that He hears He will speak, and He will make known the future to you.

wmth@John:16:14 @ He will glorify me, because He will take of what is mine and will make it known to you.

wmth@John:16:15 @ Everything that the Father has is mine; that is why I said that the Spirit of Truth takes of what is mine and will make it known to you.

wmth@John:16:16 @ »A little while and you see me no more, and again a little while and you shall see me.«

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:16:19 @ Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask Him, and He said, »Is this what you are questioning one another about–my saying, `A little while and you do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me'?

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:16:22 @ So you also now have sorrow; but I shall see you again, and your hearts will be glad, and your gladness no one will take away from you.

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:16:24 @ As yet you have not asked for anything in my name: ask, and you shall receive, that your hearts may be filled with gladness.

wmth@John:16:25 @ »All this I have spoken to you in veiled language. The time is coming when I shall no longer speak to you in veiled language, but will tell you about the Father in plain words.«

wmth@John:16:26 @ At that time you will make your requests in my name; and I do not promise to ask the Father on your behalf,

wmth@John:16:27 @ for the Father Himself holds you dear, because you have held me dear and have believed that I came from the Father's presence.

wmth@John:16:29 @ »Ah, now you are using plain language,« said His disciples, »and are uttering no figure of speech!

wmth@John:16:30 @ Now we know that you have all knowledge, and do not need to be pressed with questions. Through this we believe that you came from God.«

wmth@John:16:31 @ »Do you at last believe?« replied Jesus.

wmth@John:16:32 @ »Remember that the time is coming, nay, has already come, for you all to be dispersed each to his own home and to leave me alone. And yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.«

wmth@John:16:33 @ »I have spoken all this to you in order that in me you may have peace. In the world you have affliction. But keep up your courage: have won the victory over the world.«

wmth@John:18:4 @ Jesus therefore, knowing all that was about to befall Him, went out to meet them. »Who are you looking for?« He asked them.

wmth@John:18:7 @ Again therefore He asked them, »Who are you looking for?«»For Jesus the Nazarene,« they said.

wmth@John:18:8 @ »I have told you,« replied Jesus, »that I am he. If therefore you are looking for me, let these my disciples go their way.«

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:18:14 @ (It was this Caiaphas who had advised the Jews, saying, »It is to your interest that one man should die for the People.«)

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:18:21 @ Why do you question me? Question those who heard what it was I said to them: these witnesses here know what I said.«

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:18:25 @ 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:18:26 @ One of the High Priest's servants, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, said, »Did I not see you in the garden with him?«

wmth@John:18:29 @ Accordingly Pilate came out to them and inquired, »What accusation have you to bring against this man?«

wmth@John:18:30 @ »If the man were not a criminal,« they replied, »we would not have handed him over to you.«

wmth@John:18:31 @ »Take him yourselves,« said Pilate, »and judge him by your Law.«»We have no power,« replied the Jews, »to put any man to death.«

wmth@John:18:34 @ »Do you say this of yourself, or have others told it you about me?« replied Jesus.

wmth@John:18:35 @ »Am I a Jew?« exclaimed Pilate; »it is your own nation and the High Priests who have handed you over to me. What have you done?«

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:18:39 @ 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:19:4 @ Once more Pilate came out and said to the Jews, »See, I am bringing him out to you to let you clearly understand that I find no crime in him.«

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:19:9 @ »What is your origin?« he asked. But Jesus gave him no answer.

wmth@John:19:10 @ »Do you refuse to speak even to me?« asked Pilate; »do you not know that I have it in my power either to release you or to crucify you?«

wmth@John:19:11 @ »You would have had no power whatever over me,« replied Jesus, »had it not been granted you from above. On that account he who has delivered me up to you is more guilty than you are.«

wmth@John:19:12 @ Upon receiving this answer, Pilate was for releasing Him. But the Jews kept shouting, »If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar's. Every one who sets himself up as king declares himself a rebel against Caesar.«

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:19:15 @ This caused a storm of outcries, »Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!«»Am I to crucify your king?« Pilate asked. »We have no king, except Caesar,« answered the High Priests.

wmth@John:19:21 @ This led the Jewish High Priests to remonstrate with Pilate. »You should not write `The King of the Jews,'« they said, »but that he claimed to be King of the Jews.«

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:19:27 @ Then He said to the disciple, »Behold, your mother!« And from that time the disciple received her into his own home.

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:20:13 @ They spoke to her. »Why are you weeping?« they asked. »Because,« she replied, »they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have put him.«

wmth@John:20:15 @ »Why are you weeping?« He asked; »who are you looking for?« She, supposing that He was the gardener, replied, »Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him and I will remove him.«

wmth@John:20:17 @ »Do not cling to me,« said Jesus, »for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But take this message to my brethren: `I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'«

wmth@John:20:19 @ On that same first day of the week, when it was evening and, for fear of the Jews, the doors of the house where the disciples were, were locked, Jesus came and stood in their midst, and said to them, »Peace be to you!«

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:20:26 @ A week later the disciples were again in the house, and Thomas was with them, when Jesus came –though the doors were locked– and stood in their midst, and said, »Peace be to you.«

wmth@John:20:27 @ Then He said to Thomas, »Bring your finger here and feel my hands; bring you hand and put it into my side; and do not be ready to disbelieve but to believe.«

wmth@John:20:29 @ »Because you have seen me,« replied Jesus, »you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.«

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:21:5 @ He called to them. »Children,« He said, »have you any food there?«»No,« they answered.

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:21:15 @ 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:21:20 @ Peter turned round and noticed the disciple whom Jesus loved following–the one who at the supper had leaned back on His breast and had asked, »Master, who is it that is betraying you?«

wmth@John:21:22 @ »If I desire him to remain till I come,« replied Jesus, »what concern is that of yours? You, yourself, must follow me.«

wmth@John:21:23 @ Hence the report spread among the brethren that that disciple would never die. Yet Jesus did not say, »He is not to die,« but, »If I desire him to remain till I come, what concern is that of yours?«
