mkjv@Matthew:1:1 @ The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, [the] son of David, [the] son of Abraham.

mkjv@Matthew:1:2 @ Abraham fathered Isaac, and Isaac fathered Jacob, and Jacob fathered Judah and his brothers.

mkjv@Matthew:1:3 @ And Judah fathered Pharez and Zarah of Tamar. And Pharez fathered Hezron, and Hezron fathered Ram,

mkjv@Matthew:1:4 @ and Ram fathered Amminadab, and Amminadab fathered Nahshon, and Nahshon fathered Salmon.

mkjv@Matthew:1:5 @ And Salmon fathered Boaz of Rahab, and Boaz fathered Obed of Ruth, and Obed fathered Jesse,

mkjv@Matthew:1:6 @ and Jesse fathered David the king. And David the king fathered Solomon of [her who had been] wife of Uriah.

mkjv@Matthew:1:7 @ And Solomon fathered Rehoboam, and Rehoboam fathered Abijah, and Abijah fathered Asa.

mkjv@Matthew:1:8 @ And Asa fathered Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat fathered Jehoram, and Jehoram fathered Uzziah.

mkjv@Matthew:1:9 @ And Uzziah fathered Jotham, and Jotham fathered Ahaz, and Ahaz fathered Hezekiah.

mkjv@Matthew:1:10 @ And Hezekiah fathered Manasseh, and Manasseh fathered Amon, and Amon fathered Josiah.

mkjv@Matthew:1:11 @ And Josiah fathered Jehoiachin and his brothers, at the time they were carried away to Babylon.

mkjv@Matthew:1:12 @ And after the carrying away to Babylon, Jehoiachin fathered Shealtiel, and Shealtiel fathered Zerubbabel.

mkjv@Matthew:1:16 @ And Jacob fathered Joseph, the husband [to be] of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called Christ.

mkjv@Matthew:1:17 @ So all the generations from Abraham to David [are] fourteen generations. And from David until the carrying away into Babylon, fourteen generations. And from the carrying away into Babylon until Christ, fourteen generations.

mkjv@Matthew:1:18 @ Now the birth of Jesus Christ was this way (for His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph) before they came together, she was found to be with child by [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Matthew:1:19 @ But Joseph, her husband [to be], being just, and not willing to make her a public example, he purposed to put her away secretly.

mkjv@Matthew:1:20 @ And as he thought upon these things, behold, the angel of [the] Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take to you Mary [as] your wife. For that in her is fathered of [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Matthew:1:21 @ And she shall bear a son, and you shall call His name JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins.

mkjv@Matthew:1:22 @ Now all this happened so that might be fulfilled that which was] spoken of the LORD by the prophet, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:1:23 @ Behold, the virgin shall conceive in [her] womb, and will bear a son. And they will call His name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

mkjv@Matthew:1:24 @ And Joseph, being roused from sleep, did as the angel of [the] Lord commanded him and took his wife,

mkjv@Matthew:1:25 @ and did not know her until she bore her son, the First-born. And he called His name JESUS.

mkjv@Matthew:2:1 @ Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in [the] days of Herod the king, behold, wise men came from [the] east to Jerusalem,

mkjv@Matthew:2:2 @ saying, Where is He [who is] born king of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the east and have come to worship Him.

mkjv@Matthew:2:3 @ But when Herod the king heard these [things], he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

mkjv@Matthew:2:4 @ And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.

mkjv@Matthew:2:5 @ And they said to him, In Bethlehem of Judea. For so it is written by the prophet,

mkjv@Matthew:2:6 @ And you, Bethlehem, [in] the land of Judah, are not the least among the governors of Judah. For out of you shall come a Governor who shall rule My people Israel.

mkjv@Matthew:2:7 @ Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise men, inquired of them exactly what time the star appeared.

mkjv@Matthew:2:8 @ And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child. And when you have found [him], bring me word again so that I may come and worship him also.

mkjv@Matthew:2:9 @ When they had heard the king, they departed. And lo, the star which they saw in the east went before them until it came and stood over where the child was.

mkjv@Matthew:2:10 @ And seeing the star, they rejoiced [with] exceedingly great joy.

mkjv@Matthew:2:11 @ And coming into the house, they saw the child with Mary His mother. And they fell down and worshiped Him. And opening their treasures, they presented gifts to Him, gold and frankincense and myrrh.

mkjv@Matthew:2:12 @ And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.

mkjv@Matthew:2:13 @ And when they had departed, behold, the angel of [the] Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise and take the young child and His mother and flee into Egypt. And be there until I bring you word, for Herod is about to seek the child to destroy Him.

mkjv@Matthew:2:14 @ And he arose and took the young child and his mother by night and departed into Egypt.

mkjv@Matthew:2:15 @ And he was there until the death of Herod; so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the LORD through the prophet, Out of Egypt I have called My Son.

mkjv@Matthew:2:16 @ Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked by the wise men, was greatly enraged. And he sent and killed all the boys in Bethlehem, and in all its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had carefully inquired of the wise men.

mkjv@Matthew:2:17 @ Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:2:18 @ A voice was heard in Ramah, wailing and weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping [for] her children, and would not be comforted, because they are [not].

mkjv@Matthew:2:19 @ But Herod having expired, behold, an angel of [the] Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,

mkjv@Matthew:2:20 @ saying, Arise, and take the child and His mother. And go into [the] land of Israel. For the ones who sought the child's life are dead.

mkjv@Matthew:2:21 @ And he arose and took the child and His mother and came into [the] land of Israel.

mkjv@Matthew:2:22 @ But when he heard that Archelaus reigned in Judea in his father Herod's place, he was afraid to go there. And being warned by God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee.

mkjv@Matthew:2:23 @ And he came and lived in a city called Nazareth, so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.

mkjv@Matthew:3:1 @ In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea,

mkjv@Matthew:3:2 @ and saying, Repent, for the kingdom of Heaven is at hand.

mkjv@Matthew:3:3 @ For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying, The voice of [one] crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of [the] Lord, make His paths straight.

mkjv@Matthew:3:4 @ And the same John had his clothing of camel's hair and a leather girdle about his loins. And his food was locusts and wild honey.

mkjv@Matthew:3:5 @ Then Jerusalem and all Judea went out to him, and all the region round about Jordan.

mkjv@Matthew:3:6 @ And they were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.

mkjv@Matthew:3:7 @ But seeing many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said to them, O generation of vipers, who has warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

mkjv@Matthew:3:8 @ Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance;

mkjv@Matthew:3:9 @ and do not think to say within yourselves, We have Abraham as [our] father. For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.

mkjv@Matthew:3:10 @ And now also, the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bring forth good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.

mkjv@Matthew:3:11 @ I indeed baptize you with water to repentance. But He who comes after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He shall baptize you with [the] Holy Spirit and [with] fire;

mkjv@Matthew:3:12 @ whose fan [is] in His hand, and He will cleanse His floor and gather His wheat into the storehouse; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.

mkjv@Matthew:3:13 @ Then Jesus came from Galilee to Jordan, to John, to be baptized by him.

mkjv@Matthew:3:14 @ But John restrained Him, saying, I have need to be baptized by You, and do You come to me?

mkjv@Matthew:3:15 @ And answering Jesus said to him, Allow [it] now, for it is becoming to us to fulfill all righteousness. Then he allowed Him.

mkjv@Matthew:3:16 @ And Jesus, when He had been baptized, went up immediately out of the water. And lo, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting upon Him.

mkjv@Matthew:3:17 @ And lo, a voice from Heaven, saying, This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

mkjv@Matthew:4:1 @ Then Jesus was led by the Spirit up into the wilderness, to be tempted by the Devil.

mkjv@Matthew:4:2 @ And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, He was afterwards hungry.

mkjv@Matthew:4:3 @ And when the tempter came to Him, he said, If You are [the] Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.

mkjv@Matthew:4:4 @ But He answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of [the] mouth of God.

mkjv@Matthew:4:5 @ Then the Devil took Him up into the holy city and set Him upon a pinnacle of the Temple.

mkjv@Matthew:4:6 @ And [he] said to Him, If you are the Son of God, cast yourself down. For it is written, He shall give His angels charge concerning You, and in [their] hands they shall bear You up, lest at any time You dash Your foot against a stone.

mkjv@Matthew:4:7 @ Jesus said to him, It is written again, You shall not tempt [the] Lord your God.

mkjv@Matthew:4:8 @ Again, the Devil took Him up into a very high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.

mkjv@Matthew:4:9 @ And [he] said to Him, All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.

mkjv@Matthew:4:10 @ Then Jesus said to him, Go, Satan! For it is written, You shall worship [the] Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.

mkjv@Matthew:4:11 @ Then the Devil left him. And behold, angels came and ministered to Him.

mkjv@Matthew:4:12 @ But when Jesus heard that John was thrown into prison, He went back into Galilee.

mkjv@Matthew:4:13 @ And leaving Nazareth, He came and lived in Capernaum, which is on the seacoast, in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali,

mkjv@Matthew:4:14 @ so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:4:15 @ The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, [by] way of [the] sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the nations!

mkjv@Matthew:4:16 @ The people who sat in darkness saw a great Light; and Light has sprung up to those who sat in [the] region and shadow of death.

mkjv@Matthew:4:17 @ From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, Repent! For the kingdom of Heaven is at hand.

mkjv@Matthew:4:18 @ And walking by the Sea of Galilee, Jesus saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea. For they were fishermen.

mkjv@Matthew:4:19 @ And He said to them, Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.

mkjv@Matthew:4:20 @ And they immediately left their nets and followed him.

mkjv@Matthew:4:21 @ And going on from there, he saw another two brothers, James [the son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. And He called them;

mkjv@Matthew:4:22 @ and they immediately left the boat and their father and followed Him.

mkjv@Matthew:4:23 @ And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people.

mkjv@Matthew:4:24 @ And His fame went throughout all Syria. And they brought to Him all those being badly ill] suffering various diseases and torments, and [those] who had been possessed with demons, and those who had been moonstruck, and paralytics. And He healed them.

mkjv@Matthew:4:25 @ And great multitudes of people followed Him, from Galilee and Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judea and beyond Jordan.

mkjv@Matthew:5:1 @ And seeing the multitudes, He went up into a mountain. And when He had sat down, His disciples came to Him.

mkjv@Matthew:5:2 @ And He opened His mouth and taught them, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:5:3 @ Blessed [are] the poor in spirit! For theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:5:4 @ Blessed [are] they that mourn! For they shall be comforted.

mkjv@Matthew:5:5 @ Blessed [are] the meek! For they shall inherit the earth.

mkjv@Matthew:5:6 @ Blessed [are] they who hunger and thirst after righteousness! For they shall be filled.

mkjv@Matthew:5:7 @ Blessed [are] the merciful! For they shall obtain mercy.

mkjv@Matthew:5:8 @ Blessed [are] the pure in heart! For they shall see God.

mkjv@Matthew:5:9 @ Blessed [are] the peacemakers! For they shall be called the sons of God.

mkjv@Matthew:5:10 @ Blessed [are] they who have been persecuted for righteousness sake! For theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:5:11 @ Blessed are you when [men] shall revile you and persecute [you], and shall say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for My sake.

mkjv@Matthew:5:12 @ Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for your reward in Heaven [is] great. For so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

mkjv@Matthew:5:13 @ You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt loses its savor, with what shall it be salted? It is no longer good for anything, but to be thrown out and to be trodden underfoot by men.

mkjv@Matthew:5:14 @ You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

mkjv@Matthew:5:15 @ Nor do men light a lamp and put it under the grain-measure, but on a lampstand. And it gives light to all who are in the house.

mkjv@Matthew:5:16 @ Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:5:17 @ Do not think that I have come to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to destroy but to fulfill.

mkjv@Matthew:5:18 @ For truly I say to you, Till the heaven and the earth pass away, not one jot or one tittle shall in any way pass from the law until all is fulfilled.

mkjv@Matthew:5:19 @ Therefore whoever shall break one of these commandments, the least, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of Heaven. But whoever shall do and teach [them], the same shall be called great in the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:5:20 @ For I say to you that unless your righteousness shall exceed [that] of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall in no case enter into the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:5:21 @ You have heard that it was said to the ancients, You shall not kill --and, Whoever shall kill shall be liable to the judgment.

mkjv@Matthew:5:22 @ But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be liable to the judgment. And whoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be liable to the sanhedrin; but whoever shall say, Fool! shall be liable [to be thrown] into the fire of hell.

mkjv@Matthew:5:23 @ Therefore if you offer your gift on the altar, and there remember that your brother has anything against you,

mkjv@Matthew:5:24 @ leave your gift there before the altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.

mkjv@Matthew:5:25 @ Agree with your adversary quickly, while you are in the way with him; that the opponent not deliver you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and you be thrown into prison.

mkjv@Matthew:5:26 @ Truly I say to you, You shall by no means come out from there until you have paid the last kodrantes.

mkjv@Matthew:5:27 @ You have heard that it was said to the ancients, You shall not commit adultery.

mkjv@Matthew:5:28 @ But I say to you that whoever looks on a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

mkjv@Matthew:5:29 @ And if your right eye offends you, pluck it out and throw [it] from you. For it is profitable for you that one of your members should perish, and not [that] your whole body should be thrown into hell.

mkjv@Matthew:5:30 @ And if your right hand offends you, cut it off and throw [it] from you. For it is profitable for you [that] one of your members should perish, and not that your whole body should be thrown into hell.

mkjv@Matthew:5:31 @ It was also said, Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a bill of divorce.

mkjv@Matthew:5:32 @ But I say to you that whoever shall put away his wife, except for the cause of fornication, causes her to commit adultery. And whoever shall marry her who is put away commits adultery.

mkjv@Matthew:5:33 @ Again, you have heard that it has been said to the ancients, You shall not swear falsely, but you shall perform your oaths to the Lord.

mkjv@Matthew:5:34 @ But I say to you, Do not swear at all! Not by Heaven, because it is God's throne;

mkjv@Matthew:5:35 @ not by the earth, for it is the footstool of His feet; not by Jerusalem, because it is [the] city of the great King;

mkjv@Matthew:5:36 @ nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black.

mkjv@Matthew:5:37 @ But let your word be, Yes, yes; No, no. For whatever is more than these comes from evil.

mkjv@Matthew:5:38 @ You have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.

mkjv@Matthew:5:39 @ But I say to you, Do not resist evil. But whoever shall strike you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also.

mkjv@Matthew:5:40 @ And to him desiring to sue you, and to take away your tunic, let him have [your] coat also.

mkjv@Matthew:5:41 @ And whoever shall compel you to go a mile, go with him two.

mkjv@Matthew:5:42 @ Give to him who asks of you, and you shall not turn away from him who would borrow from you.

mkjv@Matthew:5:43 @ You have heard that it was said, You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.

mkjv@Matthew:5:44 @ But I say to you, Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who despitefully use you and persecute you,

mkjv@Matthew:5:45 @ so that you may become sons of your Father in Heaven. For He makes His sun to rise on [the] evil and on [the] good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

mkjv@Matthew:5:46 @ For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax-collectors do the same?

mkjv@Matthew:5:47 @ And if you greet your brothers only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax-collectors do so?

mkjv@Matthew:5:48 @ Therefore be perfect, even as your Father in Heaven is perfect.

mkjv@Matthew:6:1 @ Take heed that you do not do your merciful deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward with your Father in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:6:2 @ Therefore when you do [your] merciful deeds, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may have glory from men. Truly I say to you, They have their reward.

mkjv@Matthew:6:3 @ But when you do merciful deeds, do not let your left hand know what your right hand does,

mkjv@Matthew:6:4 @ so that your merciful deeds may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret Himself shall reward you openly.

mkjv@Matthew:6:5 @ And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, so that they may be seen by men. Truly I say to you, They have their reward.

mkjv@Matthew:6:6 @ But you, when you pray, enter into your room. And shutting your door, pray to your Father in secret; and your Father who sees in secret shall reward you openly.

mkjv@Matthew:6:7 @ But when you pray, do not babble vain words, as the nations. For they think that in their much speaking they shall be heard.

mkjv@Matthew:6:8 @ Therefore do not be like them, for your Father knows what things you have need of, before you ask Him.

mkjv@Matthew:6:9 @ Therefore pray in this way: Our Father, who is in Heaven, Hallowed be Your name.

mkjv@Matthew:6:10 @ Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as [it is] in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:6:11 @ Give us this day our daily bread;

mkjv@Matthew:6:12 @ and forgive us our debts as we also forgive our debtors.

mkjv@Matthew:6:13 @ And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil. For Yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.

mkjv@Matthew:6:14 @ For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you;

mkjv@Matthew:6:15 @ but if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

mkjv@Matthew:6:16 @ And when you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, of a sad face. For they disfigure their faces so that they may appear to men to fast. Truly I say to you, they have their reward.

mkjv@Matthew:6:17 @ But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,

mkjv@Matthew:6:18 @ so that you do not appear to men to fast, but to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees in secret shall reward you openly.

mkjv@Matthew:6:19 @ Do not lay up treasures on earth for yourselves, where moth and rust corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal.

mkjv@Matthew:6:20 @ But lay up treasures in Heaven for yourselves, where neither moth nor rust corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal.

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

mkjv@Matthew:6:22 @ The light of the body is the eye. Therefore if your eye is sound, your whole body shall be full of light.

mkjv@Matthew:6:23 @ But if your eye is evil, your whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light [that is] in you is darkness, how great [is] that darkness!

mkjv@Matthew:6:24 @ No one can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

mkjv@Matthew:6:25 @ Therefore I say to you, Do not be anxious for your life, what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; nor for your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?

mkjv@Matthew:6:26 @ Behold the birds of the air; for they sow not, nor do they reap, nor gather into barns. Yet your heavenly Father feeds them; are you not much better than they are?

mkjv@Matthew:6:27 @ Which of you [by] being anxious can add one cubit to his stature?

mkjv@Matthew:6:28 @ And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They do not toil, nor do they spin,

mkjv@Matthew:6:29 @ but I say to you that even Solomon in his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

mkjv@Matthew:6:30 @ Therefore if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, [will He] not much rather [clothe] you, little-faiths?

mkjv@Matthew:6:31 @ Therefore do not be anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, With what shall we be clothed?

mkjv@Matthew:6:32 @ For the nations seek after all these things. For your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things.

mkjv@Matthew:6:33 @ But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you.

mkjv@Matthew:6:34 @ Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow; for tomorrow shall be anxious for its own things. Sufficient to the day [is] the evil of it.

mkjv@Matthew:7:1 @ Judge not, that you may not be judged.

mkjv@Matthew:7:2 @ For with whatever judgment you judge, you shall be judged; and with whatever measure you measure out, it shall be measured to you again.

mkjv@Matthew:7:3 @ And why do you look on the splinter that is in your brother's eye, but do not consider the beam that is in your own eye?

mkjv@Matthew:7:4 @ Or how will you say to your brother, Let me pull the splinter out of your eye; and, behold, a beam [is] in your own eye?

mkjv@Matthew:7:5 @ Hypocrite! First cast the beam out of your own eye, and then you shall see clearly to cast the splinter out of your brother's eye.

mkjv@Matthew:7:6 @ Do not give that which [is] holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet and turn again and tear you.

mkjv@Matthew:7:7 @ Ask and it shall be given to you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you.

mkjv@Matthew:7:8 @ For each one who asks receives; and he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, it shall be opened.

mkjv@Matthew:7:9 @ Or what man is there of you, if his son asks a loaf, will he give him a stone?

mkjv@Matthew:7:10 @ Or if he asks a fish, will he give him a snake?

mkjv@Matthew:7:11 @ If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father in Heaven give good things to those who ask Him?

mkjv@Matthew:7:12 @ Therefore all things, whatever you desire that men should do to you, do even so to them; for this is the Law and the Prophets.

mkjv@Matthew:7:13 @ Go in through the narrow gate, for wide [is] the gate and broad [is] the way that leads to destruction, and many there are who go in through it.

mkjv@Matthew:7:14 @ Because narrow [is] the gate and constricted [is] the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.

mkjv@Matthew:7:15 @ Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

mkjv@Matthew:7:16 @ You shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?

mkjv@Matthew:7:17 @ Even so every good tree brings forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree brings forth evil fruit.

mkjv@Matthew:7:18 @ A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruits, nor [can] a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

mkjv@Matthew:7:19 @ Every tree that does not bring forth good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

mkjv@Matthew:7:20 @ Therefore by their fruits you shall know them.

mkjv@Matthew:7:21 @ Not everyone who says to Me, Lord! Lord! shall enter the kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:7:22 @ Many will say to Me in that day, Lord! Lord! Did we not prophesy in Your name, and through Your name throw out demons, and through Your name do many wonderful works?

mkjv@Matthew:7:23 @ And then I will say to them I never knew you! Depart from Me, those working lawlessness!

mkjv@Matthew:7:24 @ Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on a rock.

mkjv@Matthew:7:25 @ And the rain came down, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house. And it did not fall, for it was founded on a rock.

mkjv@Matthew:7:26 @ And everyone who hears these sayings of Mine and does not do them shall be compared to a foolish man who built his house on the sand.

mkjv@Matthew:7:27 @ And the rain came down, and the floods came, and the wind blew and beat on that house. And it fell, and great was its fall.

mkjv@Matthew:7:28 @ And it happened, when Jesus had ended these sayings, that the people were astonished at His doctrine.

mkjv@Matthew:7:29 @ For He taught them as [one] having authority, and not as the scribes.

mkjv@Matthew:8:1 @ When He had come down from the mountain, great crowds followed him.

mkjv@Matthew:8:2 @ And behold, a leper came and worshiped him, saying, Lord, if You will, You can make me clean.

mkjv@Matthew:8:3 @ And Jesus put [out] His hand and touched him, saying, I will; be clean! And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

mkjv@Matthew:8:4 @ And Jesus said to him, See that you tell no one; but go, show yourself to the priest. And offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.

mkjv@Matthew:8:5 @ And when Jesus had entered into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, beseeching Him,

mkjv@Matthew:8:6 @ and saying, Lord, my son lies at home paralyzed and grievously tormented.

mkjv@Matthew:8:7 @ And Jesus says to him, I will come and heal him.

mkjv@Matthew:8:8 @ The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof; but only speak the word, and my boy will be healed.

mkjv@Matthew:8:9 @ For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, Go! And he goes; and to another, Come! And he comes; and to my servant, Do this! And he does [it].

mkjv@Matthew:8:10 @ When Jesus heard, He marvelled and said to those who followed, Truly I say to you, I have not found such [great] faith, no, not in Israel.

mkjv@Matthew:8:11 @ And I say to you that many shall come from the east and the west, and shall sit down with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:8:12 @ But the sons of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:8:13 @ And Jesus said to the centurion, Go. And as you have believed, [so] let it be to you. And his boy was healed in that hour.

mkjv@Matthew:8:14 @ And when Jesus had come into Peter's house, He saw his wife's mother laid out and in a fever.

mkjv@Matthew:8:15 @ And He touched her hand, and the fever left her. And she arose and served them.

mkjv@Matthew:8:16 @ And evening coming on, they brought to Him many who had been possessed with demons. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick

mkjv@Matthew:8:17 @ so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying, He took [on Himself] our weaknesses and bore [our] sicknesses.

mkjv@Matthew:8:18 @ And seeing great crowds, Jesus gave orders to depart to the other side.

mkjv@Matthew:8:19 @ And a certain scribe came and said to him, Master, I will follow You wherever You go.

mkjv@Matthew:8:20 @ And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air [have] nests, but the Son of man has nowhere to lay [His] head.

mkjv@Matthew:8:21 @ And another of His disciples said to him, Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.

mkjv@Matthew:8:22 @ But Jesus said to him, Follow Me, and let the dead bury their dead.

mkjv@Matthew:8:23 @ And He entering into a boat, His disciples followed Him.

mkjv@Matthew:8:24 @ And behold, a great tempest arose in the sea, so much so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep.

mkjv@Matthew:8:25 @ And His disciples came to [Him] and awakened Him, saying, Lord, save us! We perish!

mkjv@Matthew:8:26 @ And He said to them, Why are you afraid, little-faiths? Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

mkjv@Matthew:8:27 @ But the men marveled, saying, What kind [of man] is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!

mkjv@Matthew:8:28 @ And when He had come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, two demon-possessed ones met Him, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no one might pass by that way.

mkjv@Matthew:8:29 @ And behold, they cried out, saying, What [have] we to do with You, Jesus, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?

mkjv@Matthew:8:30 @ And there was a good way off from them a herd of many swine, feeding.

mkjv@Matthew:8:31 @ And the demons begged Him, saying, If You cast us out, allow us to go away into the herd of swine.

mkjv@Matthew:8:32 @ And He said to them, Go! And when they had come out, they went into the herd of swine. And behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea and perished in the waters.

mkjv@Matthew:8:33 @ And those who fed [them] fled. And going into the city, [they] told everything, and what had happened to the ones who had been possessed of demons.

mkjv@Matthew:8:34 @ And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus. And when they saw Him, they begged that He would depart out of their borders.

mkjv@Matthew:9:1 @ And He entered into a boat, and passed over, and came to His own city.

mkjv@Matthew:9:2 @ And behold, they brought to Him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, Child, be of good cheer. Your sins are forgiven you.

mkjv@Matthew:9:3 @ And lo, some of the scribes said within themselves, This one blasphemes.

mkjv@Matthew:9:4 @ And Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, Why do you think evil in your hearts?

mkjv@Matthew:9:5 @ For which is easier? To say, [Your] sins are forgiven you, or to say, Arise and walk!

mkjv@Matthew:9:6 @ But so that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins, then He said to the paralytic, Arise, take up your bed and go to your house.

mkjv@Matthew:9:7 @ And he arose and departed to his house.

mkjv@Matthew:9:8 @ But when the crowds saw, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.

mkjv@Matthew:9:9 @ And as Jesus passed on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax-office. And He said to him, Follow Me! And he arose and followed Him.

mkjv@Matthew:9:10 @ And it happened as Jesus reclined in the house, behold, many tax-collectors and sinners came and were reclining with Him and His disciples.

mkjv@Matthew:9:11 @ And when the Pharisees saw, they said to His disciples, Why does your master eat with tax-collectors and sinners?

mkjv@Matthew:9:12 @ But when Jesus heard, He said to them, The ones who are whole do not need a physician, but the ones who are sick.

mkjv@Matthew:9:13 @ But go and learn what [this is], I will have mercy and not sacrifice. For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

mkjv@Matthew:9:14 @ Then the disciples of John came to Him saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but Your disciples do not fast?

mkjv@Matthew:9:15 @ And Jesus said to them, Can the sons of the bridechamber mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then they shall fast.

mkjv@Matthew:9:16 @ No one puts a piece of new cloth onto an old garment; for that which is put in to fill it up takes from the garment, and the tear is made worse.

mkjv@Matthew:9:17 @ Nor do men put new wine into old wineskins; else the wineskins burst, and the wine runs out, and the wineskins perish. But they put new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved together.

mkjv@Matthew:9:18 @ While He spoke these things to them, behold, a certain ruler came and worshiped Him, saying, My daughter has just now died. But come and lay Your hand on her and she will live.

mkjv@Matthew:9:19 @ And Jesus arose and followed him. And [so did] His disciples.

mkjv@Matthew:9:20 @ And behold, a woman, who had a flow of blood for twelve years, came up behind [Him] and touched the hem of His garment.

mkjv@Matthew:9:21 @ For she said within herself, If only I shall touch His robe, I will be whole.

mkjv@Matthew:9:22 @ But turning and seeing her, Jesus said, Daughter, be comforted; your faith has saved you. And the woman was saved from that hour.

mkjv@Matthew:9:23 @ And when Jesus came into the ruler's house and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,

mkjv@Matthew:9:24 @ He said to them, Go back, for the little girl is not dead, but sleeps. And they laughed Him to scorn.

mkjv@Matthew:9:25 @ But when the people were put out, He went in and took her by the hand, and the little girl arose.

mkjv@Matthew:9:26 @ And this report went out into all that land.

mkjv@Matthew:9:27 @ And when Jesus passed on from there, two blind ones followed Him, crying and saying, Son of David, have mercy on us.

mkjv@Matthew:9:28 @ And when He had come into the house, the blind men came to Him. And Jesus said to them, Do you believe that I am able to do this? They said to Him, Yes, Lord.

mkjv@Matthew:9:29 @ Then He touched their eyes, saying, According to your faith let it be to you.

mkjv@Matthew:9:30 @ And their eyes were opened. And Jesus strictly charged them, saying, See, let no one know.

mkjv@Matthew:9:31 @ But going out, they made Him known in all that land.

mkjv@Matthew:9:32 @ As they went out, behold, they brought to Him a dumb man, who had been demon-possessed.

mkjv@Matthew:9:33 @ And when the demon had been cast out, the dumb one spoke. And multitudes marveled, saying, Never was it seen like this in Israel!

mkjv@Matthew:9:34 @ But the Pharisees said, He throws out demons by the ruler of the demons.

mkjv@Matthew:9:35 @ And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

mkjv@Matthew:9:36 @ But seeing the crowds, He was moved with compassion on them, because they were tired and scattered like sheep having no shepherd.

mkjv@Matthew:9:37 @ Then He said to His disciples, The harvest truly [is] plenteous, but the laborers are few.

mkjv@Matthew:9:38 @ Therefore pray to the Lord of the harvest that He will send out laborers into His harvest.

mkjv@Matthew:10:1 @ And when He had called to [Him] His twelve disciples, He gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.

mkjv@Matthew:10:2 @ And the names of the twelve apostles are these: First, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James [the son] of Zebedee and John his brother;

mkjv@Matthew:10:3 @ Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax-collector; James [the son] of Alpheus, and Lebbeus, whose surname was Thaddeus;

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

mkjv@Matthew:10:5 @ Jesus sent out these twelve, commanding them, saying, Do not go into the way of the nations, and do not enter into [any] city of [the] Samaritans.

mkjv@Matthew:10:6 @ But rather go to the lost sheep of [the] house of Israel.

mkjv@Matthew:10:7 @ And as you go, proclaim, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is at hand.

mkjv@Matthew:10:8 @ Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. You have received freely, freely give.

mkjv@Matthew:10:9 @ Do not provide gold nor silver, nor copper in your purses,

mkjv@Matthew:10:10 @ nor a bag for [the] journey, nor two coats, nor sandals, nor staves. For the workman is worthy of his food.

mkjv@Matthew:10:11 @ And into whatever city or village you enter, inquire who within it is worthy. And there abide until you go away from there.

mkjv@Matthew:10:12 @ And when you come into a house, greet it.

mkjv@Matthew:10:13 @ And if the house is worthy, let your peace come on it. But if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.

mkjv@Matthew:10:14 @ And whoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when you depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.

mkjv@Matthew:10:15 @ Truly I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.

mkjv@Matthew:10:16 @ Behold, I send you out as sheep in [the] midst of wolves. Therefore be as wise as serpents and as harmless as doves.

mkjv@Matthew:10:17 @ But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to the sanhedrins, and they will scourge you in their synagogues.

mkjv@Matthew:10:18 @ And you shall be brought before governors and kings for My sake, for a testimony against them and the nations.

mkjv@Matthew:10:19 @ But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what you shall speak; for it shall be given you in that same hour what you shall speak.

mkjv@Matthew:10:20 @ For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

mkjv@Matthew:10:21 @ And brother will deliver up brother to death, and [the] father [his] child. And the children shall rise up against [their] parents and cause them to be put to death.

mkjv@Matthew:10:22 @ And you will be hated of all [men] for My name's sake, but the [one] who endures to [the] end shall be kept safe.

mkjv@Matthew:10:23 @ But when they persecute you in this city, flee into another; for truly I say to you, In no way shall you have finished the cities of Israel until the Son of Man comes.

mkjv@Matthew:10:24 @ A disciple is not above [his] master, nor the servant above his lord.

mkjv@Matthew:10:25 @ It is enough for the disciple that he is like his master, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more those of his household?

mkjv@Matthew:10:26 @ Therefore do not fear them, for there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed, and nothing hidden which shall not be known.

mkjv@Matthew:10:27 @ What I tell you in darkness, speak in the light; and what you hear, proclaim on the housetops.

mkjv@Matthew:10:28 @ And do not fear those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul. But rather fear Him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

mkjv@Matthew:10:29 @ Are not two sparrows sold for an assarion? And one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.

mkjv@Matthew:10:30 @ But even the hairs of your head are all numbered.

mkjv@Matthew:10:31 @ Therefore do not fear, you are of more value than many sparrows.

mkjv@Matthew:10:32 @ Then everyone who shall confess Me before men, I will confess him before My Father who is in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:10:33 @ But whoever shall deny Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:10:34 @ Do not think that I have come to bring peace on earth. I did not come to send peace, but a sword.

mkjv@Matthew:10:35 @ For I have come to set a man against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

mkjv@Matthew:10:36 @ And a man's foes [shall be] those of his [own] household.

mkjv@Matthew:10:37 @ He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.

mkjv@Matthew:10:38 @ And he who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me.

mkjv@Matthew:10:39 @ He who finds his life shall lose it. And he who loses his life for My sake shall find it.

mkjv@Matthew:10:40 @ He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.

mkjv@Matthew:10:41 @ He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward. And he who receives a just [one] in the name of a just one will receive a just [one's] reward.

mkjv@Matthew:10:42 @ And whoever shall give to one of these little ones a cup of cold [water] to drink, only in the name of a disciple, truly I say to you, He shall in no way lose his reward.

mkjv@Matthew:11:1 @ And it happened, when Jesus had finished commanding His twelve disciples, He left there to teach and to proclaim in their cities.

mkjv@Matthew:11:2 @ But when John heard in the prison of the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples.

mkjv@Matthew:11:3 @ And they said to Him, Are You he who should come, or do we look for another?

mkjv@Matthew:11:4 @ Jesus answered and said to them, Go and tell John again those things which you hear and see:

mkjv@Matthew:11:5 @ the blind receive their sight, and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear; the dead are raised, and the poor have the gospel proclaimed to them.

mkjv@Matthew:11:6 @ And blessed is [he], whoever shall not be offended in Me.

mkjv@Matthew:11:7 @ And as they departed, Jesus began to say to the crowds concerning John, What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?

mkjv@Matthew:11:8 @ But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft [clothing]? Behold, they who wear soft [clothing] are in kings' houses.

mkjv@Matthew:11:9 @ But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and [one] more excellent than a prophet.

mkjv@Matthew:11:10 @ For this is [the one] of whom it is written, Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, who shall prepare Your way before You.

mkjv@Matthew:11:11 @ Truly I say to you, Among [those] who have been born of women there has not risen a greater one than John the Baptist. But the least in the kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.

mkjv@Matthew:11:12 @ And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of Heaven is taken by violence, and the violent take it by force.

mkjv@Matthew:11:13 @ For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.

mkjv@Matthew:11:14 @ And if you will receive [it], this is Elijah who is to come.

mkjv@Matthew:11:15 @ He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

mkjv@Matthew:11:16 @ But to what shall I compare to this generation? It is like little children sitting in [the] markets and calling to their playmates,

mkjv@Matthew:11:17 @ saying, We played the flute to you, and you did not dance! We mourned to you, but you did not wail!

mkjv@Matthew:11:18 @ For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He has a demon.

mkjv@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a man who is a glutton and a winebibber, a friend of tax-collectors and sinners. But wisdom was justified by her children.

mkjv@Matthew:11:20 @ Then He began to upbraid the cities in which most of His mighty works were done, because they did not repent.

mkjv@Matthew:11:21 @ Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the powerful acts which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes!

mkjv@Matthew:11:22 @ But I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment than for you.

mkjv@Matthew:11:23 @ And you, Capernaum, who are exalted to the heaven, shall be brought down to hell. For if the mighty works which have been done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.

mkjv@Matthew:11:24 @ But I say to you, it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment than for you.

mkjv@Matthew:11:25 @ At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank You, O Father, Lord of Heaven and earth, because You have hidden these things from [the] sophisticated and cunning, and revealed them to babes.

mkjv@Matthew:11:26 @ Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight.

mkjv@Matthew:11:27 @ All things are delivered to Me by My Father. And no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son will reveal Him.

mkjv@Matthew:11:28 @ Come to Me all [you] who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

mkjv@Matthew:11:29 @ Take My yoke on you and learn of Me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and you shall find rest to your souls.

mkjv@Matthew:11:30 @ For My yoke [is] easy, and My burden is light.

mkjv@Matthew:12:1 @ At that time Jesus went through the grain fields on the sabbath day. And His disciples were hungry, and began to pluck the heads [of grain] and to eat.

mkjv@Matthew:12:2 @ But when the Pharisees saw, they said to Him, Behold, your disciples do that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath day.

mkjv@Matthew:12:3 @ But He said to them, Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him,

mkjv@Matthew:12:4 @ how he entered into the house of God and ate the showbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?

mkjv@Matthew:12:5 @ Or have you not read in the Law that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath and are blameless?

mkjv@Matthew:12:6 @ But I say to you that [One] greater than the temple is in this place.

mkjv@Matthew:12:7 @ But if you had known what [this] is, I desire mercy and not sacrifice, you would not have condemned those who are not guilty.

mkjv@Matthew:12:8 @ For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath.

mkjv@Matthew:12:9 @ And when He had departed from there, He went into their synagogue.

mkjv@Matthew:12:10 @ And behold, a man having [a] withered hand. And they asked Him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbaths? This so that they might accuse Him.

mkjv@Matthew:12:11 @ And He said to them, What man among you will be, who will have one sheep, and if it falls into a pit on the sabbaths, will he not lay hold on it and lift [it] out?

mkjv@Matthew:12:12 @ How much better is a man then than a sheep? Therefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.

mkjv@Matthew:12:13 @ Then He said to the man, Stretch out your hand. And he stretched [it] out, and it was restored whole like the other.

mkjv@Matthew:12:14 @ Then the Pharisees went out and held council against Him, as to how they might destroy Him.

mkjv@Matthew:12:15 @ But when Jesus knew [it], He withdrew Himself from there. And great crowds followed Him, and He healed them all.

mkjv@Matthew:12:16 @ And He warned them that they not make Him known,

mkjv@Matthew:12:17 @ so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:12:18 @ Behold My Child whom I have chosen; My Beloved, in whom My soul is well pleased. I will put My Spirit on Him, and He shall declare judgment to the nations.

mkjv@Matthew:12:19 @ He shall not strive, nor cry, nor shall any one hear His voice in the streets.

mkjv@Matthew:12:20 @ He will not break a bruised reed, and He will not quench a smoking wick, until He sends out judgment to victory.

mkjv@Matthew:12:21 @ And in His name the nations shall trust.

mkjv@Matthew:12:22 @ Then one who had been demon-possessed was brought to Him, blind and dumb. And He healed him, so much so that the blind and dumb one both spoke and saw.

mkjv@Matthew:12:23 @ And all the people were amazed and said, Is not this the son of David?

mkjv@Matthew:12:24 @ But when the Pharisees heard, they said, This [one] does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub the ruler of the demons.

mkjv@Matthew:12:25 @ And Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation. And every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.

mkjv@Matthew:12:26 @ And if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then shall his kingdom stand?

mkjv@Matthew:12:27 @ But if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast [them] out? Therefore they shall be your judges.

mkjv@Matthew:12:28 @ But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you.

mkjv@Matthew:12:29 @ Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house and spoil his goods, unless first he binds the strong one, and then he will plunder his house.

mkjv@Matthew:12:30 @ The [one] who is not with Me is against Me, and the [one] who does not gather with Me scatters.

mkjv@Matthew:12:31 @ Therefore I say to you, All kinds of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven to men, but the blasphemy [against] the Holy Spirit shall not be forgiven to men.

mkjv@Matthew:12:32 @ And whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him. But whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this world or in the [world] to come.

mkjv@Matthew:12:33 @ Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree corrupt and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by [its] fruit.

mkjv@Matthew:12:34 @ Offspring of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

mkjv@Matthew:12:35 @ A good man out of the good treasure of the heart brings out good things; and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings out evil things.

mkjv@Matthew:12:36 @ But I say to you that every idle word, whatever men may speak, they shall give account of it in the day of judgment.

mkjv@Matthew:12:37 @ For by your words you shall be justified, and by your words you shall be condemned.

mkjv@Matthew:12:38 @ Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we want to see a sign from you.

mkjv@Matthew:12:39 @ But He answered and said to them, An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign. And there shall be no sign given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

mkjv@Matthew:12:40 @ For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the huge fish, so the Son of man shall be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

mkjv@Matthew:12:41 @ The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, because they repented at the proclaiming of Jonah, and behold, [One] greater than Jonah [is] here.

mkjv@Matthew:12:42 @ The queen of the south shall rise up in the Judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, [One] greater than Solomon [is] here.

mkjv@Matthew:12:43 @ When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he walks through dry places seeking rest, and finds none.

mkjv@Matthew:12:44 @ Then he said, I will return into my house from where I came out. And when he has come, he finds [it] empty, swept, and decorated.

mkjv@Matthew:12:45 @ Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and live there. And the last [state] of that man is worse than the first. Even so it also shall be to this evil generation.

mkjv@Matthew:12:46 @ But while He yet talked with the people, behold, [His] mother and His brothers stood outside, desiring to speak with Him.

mkjv@Matthew:12:47 @ Then one said to Him, Behold, Your mother and Your brothers stand outside, desiring to speak with You.

mkjv@Matthew:12:48 @ And He answered and said to him who told Him, Who is My mother? And who are My brothers?

mkjv@Matthew:12:49 @ And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, Behold, My mother and My brothers!

mkjv@Matthew:12:50 @ For whoever shall do the will of My Father in Heaven, the same is My brother and sister and mother.

mkjv@Matthew:13:1 @ In that day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the seaside.

mkjv@Matthew:13:2 @ And great crowds were gathered to Him, so that He went into a boat and sat. And all the crowd stood on the shore.

mkjv@Matthew:13:3 @ And He spoke many things to them in parables, saying, Behold, the sower went out to sow.

mkjv@Matthew:13:4 @ And as he sowed, some [seeds] fell by the wayside, and the birds came and devoured them.

mkjv@Matthew:13:5 @ Some fell on stony places, where they did not have much earth. And they sprang up immediately, because they [had] no deepness of earth.

mkjv@Matthew:13:6 @ And [the] sun rising, they were scorched, and because they had no root, they withered away.

mkjv@Matthew:13:7 @ And some fell among thorns. And the thorns sprung up and choked them.

mkjv@Matthew:13:8 @ And some fell on the good ground and yielded fruit, indeed one a hundredfold, and one sixty, and one thirty.

mkjv@Matthew:13:9 @ He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

mkjv@Matthew:13:10 @ And the disciples said to Him, Why do You speak to them in parables?

mkjv@Matthew:13:11 @ He answered and said to them, Because it is given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to them.

mkjv@Matthew:13:12 @ For whoever has, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance. But whoever does not have, from him shall be taken away even that which he has.

mkjv@Matthew:13:13 @ Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not; nor do they understand.

mkjv@Matthew:13:14 @ And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah which said, By hearing you shall hear and shall not understand; and seeing you shall see and shall not perceive;

mkjv@Matthew:13:15 @ for this people's heart has become gross, and [their] ears are dull of hearing, and they have closed their eyes, lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with [their ears and should understand with [their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

mkjv@Matthew:13:16 @ But blessed [are] your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear.

mkjv@Matthew:13:17 @ For truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous [men] have desired to see those things which you see, and have not seen them; and to hear what you hear, and have not heard them.

mkjv@Matthew:13:18 @ Therefore hear the parable of the sower.

mkjv@Matthew:13:19 @ When anyone hears the Word of the kingdom and does not understand [it,] then the wicked one comes and catches away that which was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown by the wayside.

mkjv@Matthew:13:20 @ But that which was sown on the stony places is this: he who hears the Word and immediately receives it with joy.

mkjv@Matthew:13:21 @ But he has no root in himself, and is temporary. For when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, he immediately stumbles.

mkjv@Matthew:13:22 @ And that sown into the thorns is this: he who hears the Word; and the anxiety of this world, and the deceit of riches, choke the Word, and he becomes unfruitful.

mkjv@Matthew:13:23 @ But that sown on the good ground is this: he who hears the Word and understands; who also bears fruit and produces one truly a hundredfold; and one sixty; and one thirty.

mkjv@Matthew:13:24 @ He put out another parable to them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field.

mkjv@Matthew:13:25 @ But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed darnel among the wheat and went his way.

mkjv@Matthew:13:26 @ But when the blade had sprung up and had produced fruit, then the darnel also appeared.

mkjv@Matthew:13:27 @ So the servants of the householder came and said to him, Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? Then where have the darnel come from?

mkjv@Matthew:13:28 @ He said to them, An enemy has done this. The servants said to him, Then do you want us to go and gather them up?

mkjv@Matthew:13:29 @ But he said, No, lest while you gather up the darnel you also root up the wheat with them.

mkjv@Matthew:13:30 @ Let both grow together until the harvest. And in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, First gather together the darnel and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my granary.

mkjv@Matthew:13:31 @ He put out another parable to them, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field;

mkjv@Matthew:13:32 @ which indeed is the least of all seeds, but when it is grown it is the greatest among herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches.

mkjv@Matthew:13:33 @ He spoke another parable to them: The kingdom of Heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal until the whole was leavened.

mkjv@Matthew:13:34 @ Jesus spoke all these things to the crowds in parables, and He did not speak to them without a parable,

mkjv@Matthew:13:35 @ so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

mkjv@Matthew:13:36 @ Then sending the crowds away, Jesus went into the house. And His disciples came to Him, saying, Explain to us the parable of the darnel of the field.

mkjv@Matthew:13:37 @ He answered and said to them, He who sows the good seed is the Son of man;

mkjv@Matthew:13:38 @ the field is the world; the good seed are the sons of the kingdom; but the darnel are the sons of the evil [one].

mkjv@Matthew:13:39 @ The enemy who sowed them is the Devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

mkjv@Matthew:13:40 @ Therefore as the darnel are gathered and burned in the fire, so it shall be in the end of this world.

mkjv@Matthew:13:41 @ The Son of man shall send out His angels, and they shall gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who do iniquity,

mkjv@Matthew:13:42 @ and shall cast them into a furnace of fire. There shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:13:43 @ Then the righteous shall shine out like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

mkjv@Matthew:13:44 @ Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which when a man has found it, he hides it, and for the joy of it goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.

mkjv@Matthew:13:45 @ Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls;

mkjv@Matthew:13:46 @ who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

mkjv@Matthew:13:47 @ Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea, and gathered some of every kind;

mkjv@Matthew:13:48 @ which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down and gathered the good into vessels, but threw the bad away.

mkjv@Matthew:13:49 @ So it shall be at the end of the world. The angels shall come out and separate the wicked from among the just,

mkjv@Matthew:13:50 @ and shall cast them into the furnace of fire. There shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:13:51 @ Jesus said to them, Have you understood all these things? They said to Him, Yes, Lord.

mkjv@Matthew:13:52 @ Then He said to them, Therefore every scribe [who is] instructed to the kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out [things] new and old out of his treasure.

mkjv@Matthew:13:53 @ And it happened when Jesus finished these parables, He departed from there.

mkjv@Matthew:13:54 @ And when He had come into His own country, He taught them in their synagogue, so much so that they were astonished and said, From where does this [man have] this wisdom and these mighty works?

mkjv@Matthew:13:55 @ Is not this the carpenter's son? [Is] not his mother called Mary? And his brothers, James and Joses and Simon and Judas,

mkjv@Matthew:13:56 @ and his sisters, are they not all with us? Then from where does this [man have] all these things?

mkjv@Matthew:13:57 @ And they were offended in Him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country and in his own house.

mkjv@Matthew:13:58 @ And He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

mkjv@Matthew:14:1 @ At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus

mkjv@Matthew:14:2 @ and said to his servants, This is John the Baptist. He has risen from the dead, and therefore the powerful works [are] working in him.

mkjv@Matthew:14:3 @ For Herod had laid hold on John, and had bound him, and had put [him] in prison because of Herodias his brother Philip's wife.

mkjv@Matthew:14:4 @ For John said to him, It is not lawful for you to have her.

mkjv@Matthew:14:5 @ And when he desired to put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.

mkjv@Matthew:14:6 @ But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod.

mkjv@Matthew:14:7 @ So he promised with an oath to give her whatever she would ask.

mkjv@Matthew:14:8 @ And she, being instructed before by her mother, said, Give me John the Baptist's head here on a platter.

mkjv@Matthew:14:9 @ And the king was sorry. But for the oath's sake, and those reclining with [him], he commanded [it] to be given.

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

mkjv@Matthew:14:11 @ And his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl. And she brought [it] to her mother.

mkjv@Matthew:14:12 @ And his disciples came and took up the body and buried it, and went and told Jesus.

mkjv@Matthew:14:13 @ When Jesus heard, He departed from there by boat into a deserted place apart. And hearing, the crowds followed Him on foot out of the cities.

mkjv@Matthew:14:14 @ And Jesus went out and saw a great crowd, and He was moved with compassion toward them. And He healed their sick.

mkjv@Matthew:14:15 @ And evening coming on, His disciples came to Him, saying, The place is deserted and the time has already gone by. Send the crowd away so that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves.

mkjv@Matthew:14:16 @ But Jesus said to them, They do not need to leave, you give them [something] to eat.

mkjv@Matthew:14:17 @ And they said to Him, We have here only five loaves and two fish.

mkjv@Matthew:14:18 @ And He said, Bring them here to Me.

mkjv@Matthew:14:19 @ And He commanded the crowd to recline on the grass. And He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to Heaven He blessed and broke, and gave the loaves to [His] disciples. And the disciples [gave] to the crowd.

mkjv@Matthew:14:20 @ And they all ate and were filled. And they took up twelve hand baskets full from the fragments that remained.

mkjv@Matthew:14:21 @ And they who had eaten were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

mkjv@Matthew:14:22 @ And immediately Jesus constrained His disciples to get into a boat and to go before Him to the other side, while He sent the crowds away.

mkjv@Matthew:14:23 @ And when He had sent the crowds away, He went up into a mountain apart to pray. And when evening had come, He was there alone.

mkjv@Matthew:14:24 @ But the boat was now in [the] midst of the sea, tossed with waves; for the wind was against them.

mkjv@Matthew:14:25 @ And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea.

mkjv@Matthew:14:26 @ And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a phantom! And they cried out for fear.

mkjv@Matthew:14:27 @ But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, Be of good cheer, I AM! Do not fear.

mkjv@Matthew:14:28 @ And Peter answered Him and said, LORD, if it is You, tell me to come to You on the water.

mkjv@Matthew:14:29 @ And He said, Come. And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus.

mkjv@Matthew:14:30 @ But seeing that the wind was strong, he was afraid. And beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me!

mkjv@Matthew:14:31 @ And immediately Jesus stretched out [His] hand and caught him; and said to him, Little-faith! Why did you doubt?

mkjv@Matthew:14:32 @ And when they had come into the boat, the wind ceased.

mkjv@Matthew:14:33 @ And those in the boat came and worshiped Him, saying, Truly You are the Son of God.

mkjv@Matthew:14:34 @ And when they had passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret.

mkjv@Matthew:14:35 @ And recognizing Him, the men of that place sent to all that neighborhood, and brought to Him all who were diseased.

mkjv@Matthew:14:36 @ And [they] begged Him that they might only touch the hem of His robe. And as many as touched were made perfectly whole.

mkjv@Matthew:15:1 @ Then the scribes and Pharisees who were from Jerusalem came to Jesus, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:15:2 @ Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.

mkjv@Matthew:15:3 @ But He answered and said to them, Why do you also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

mkjv@Matthew:15:4 @ For God commanded, saying, Honor your father and mother; and, He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him die by death.

mkjv@Matthew:15:5 @ But you say, Whoever says to [his] father or mother, Whatever you would gain from me, [It is] a gift to God;

mkjv@Matthew:15:6 @ and in no way he honors his father or his mother. And you voided the commandment of God by your tradition.

mkjv@Matthew:15:7 @ Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:15:8 @ This people draws near to Me with their mouth, and honors Me with [their] lips, but their heart is far from Me.

mkjv@Matthew:15:9 @ But in vain they worship Me, teaching [for] doctrines [the] commandments of men.

mkjv@Matthew:15:10 @ And He called the crowd and said to them, Hear and understand.

mkjv@Matthew:15:11 @ Not that which goes into the mouth defiles a man; but that which comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.

mkjv@Matthew:15:12 @ Then His disciples came and said to Him, Do You know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?

mkjv@Matthew:15:13 @ But He answered and said, Every plant which My heavenly Father has not planted shall be rooted up.

mkjv@Matthew:15:14 @ Let them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

mkjv@Matthew:15:15 @ Then Peter answered and said to Him, Explain this parable to us.

mkjv@Matthew:15:16 @ And Jesus said, Are you also still without understanding?

mkjv@Matthew:15:17 @ Do you not yet understand that whatever enters in at the mouth goes into the belly, and is cast out into [the] waste-bowl?

mkjv@Matthew:15:18 @ But the things which come out of the mouth come from the heart, and they defile the man.

mkjv@Matthew:15:19 @ For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies;

mkjv@Matthew:15:20 @ these are [the things] which defile a man, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile a man.

mkjv@Matthew:15:21 @ And going out from there, Jesus withdrew to the parts of Tyre and Sidon.

mkjv@Matthew:15:22 @ And behold, a woman of Canaan coming out of these borders cried to Him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is grievously vexed with a demon.

mkjv@Matthew:15:23 @ But He did not answer her a word. And His disciples came and begged Him, saying, Send her away, for she cries after us.

mkjv@Matthew:15:24 @ But He answered and said, I am not sent except to the lost sheep of [the] house of Israel.

mkjv@Matthew:15:25 @ Then she came and worshiped Him, saying, Lord, help me!

mkjv@Matthew:15:26 @ But He answered and said, It is not good to take the children's bread and to throw [it] to dogs.

mkjv@Matthew:15:27 @ And she said, True, O Lord; but even the little dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' tables.

mkjv@Matthew:15:28 @ Then Jesus answered and said to her, O woman, great [is] your faith! So be it to you even as you wish. And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

mkjv@Matthew:15:29 @ And moving from there Jesus came beside the Sea of Galilee. And He went up into a mountain and sat there.

mkjv@Matthew:15:30 @ And great crowds came to Him, having with them the lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others. And they cast them down at Jesus' feet. And He healed them,

mkjv@Matthew:15:31 @ so much so that the crowd wondered when they saw the dumb speak, the maimed sound, the lame walk, and the blind see. And they glorified the God of Israel.

mkjv@Matthew:15:32 @ Then Jesus called His disciples and said, I have compassion on the crowd because they continue with Me for three days now and have nothing to eat. And I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.

mkjv@Matthew:15:33 @ And His disciples said to Him, From where should we [get] so many loaves in the wilderness, so as to fill so great a crowd?

mkjv@Matthew:15:34 @ And Jesus said to them, How many loaves do you have? And they said, Seven, and a few little fish.

mkjv@Matthew:15:35 @ And He commanded the crowd to sit on the ground.

mkjv@Matthew:15:36 @ And He took the seven loaves and the fish, and gave thanks, and broke, and gave to His disciples. And the disciples gave to the crowd.

mkjv@Matthew:15:37 @ And they all ate, and were filled; and they took up seven lunch baskets full of the pieces that was left.

mkjv@Matthew:15:38 @ And those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.

mkjv@Matthew:15:39 @ And sending the crowd away, He went into the boat and came into the borders of Magdala.

mkjv@Matthew:16:1 @ The Pharisees and the Sadducees came to Him, tempting Him. And they asked Him that He would show them a sign from Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:16:2 @ He answered and said to them, When it is evening, you say, Fair weather; for the sky is red.

mkjv@Matthew:16:3 @ And in the morning, Foul weather today; for the sky is red and gloomy. Hypocrites! You can discern the face of the sky, but you cannot [see] the signs of the times!

mkjv@Matthew:16:4 @ A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign. And there shall no sign be given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah. And He left them and went away.

mkjv@Matthew:16:5 @ And when His disciples had come to the other side, they forgot to take loaves.

mkjv@Matthew:16:6 @ And Jesus said to them, Take heed, and beware the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

mkjv@Matthew:16:7 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, [It is] because we have taken no loaves.

mkjv@Matthew:16:8 @ And knowing Jesus said to them, Why do you reason among yourselves because you took no loaves, little-faiths?

mkjv@Matthew:16:9 @ Do you not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many hand baskets you took up;

mkjv@Matthew:16:10 @ nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many lunch baskets you took up?

mkjv@Matthew:16:11 @ How is it that you do not understand that I did not speak to you about loaves, but to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?

mkjv@Matthew:16:12 @ Then they understood that He did not say to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

mkjv@Matthew:16:13 @ And coming into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked His disciples, saying, Who do men say Me to be, the Son of man?

mkjv@Matthew:16:14 @ And they said, Some [say], John the Baptist; some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.

mkjv@Matthew:16:15 @ He said to them, But who do you say I am?

mkjv@Matthew:16:16 @ And Simon Peter answered and said, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.

mkjv@Matthew:16:17 @ Jesus answered and said to him, You are blessed, Simon, son of Jonah, for flesh and blood did not reveal [it] to you, but My Father in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:16:18 @ And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and [the] gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

mkjv@Matthew:16:19 @ And I will give the keys of the kingdom of Heaven to you. And whatever you may bind on earth shall occur, having been bound in Heaven, and whatever you may loose on earth shall occur, having been loosed in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:16:20 @ Then He warned His disciples that they should tell no one that He was Jesus the Christ.

mkjv@Matthew:16:21 @ From that time Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.

mkjv@Matthew:16:22 @ Then Peter took Him and began to rebuke Him, saying, [God be] gracious to You, Lord! This shall never be to You.

mkjv@Matthew:16:23 @ But He turned and said to Peter, Go, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you do not savor the things that are of God, but those that are of men.

mkjv@Matthew:16:24 @ Then Jesus said to His disciples, If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.

mkjv@Matthew:16:25 @ For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever desires to lose his life for My sake shall find it.

mkjv@Matthew:16:26 @ For what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

mkjv@Matthew:16:27 @ For the Son of man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He shall reward each one according to his works.

mkjv@Matthew:16:28 @ Truly I say to you, There are some standing here who shall not taste of death until they see the Son of man coming in His kingdom.

mkjv@Matthew:17:1 @ And after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them up into a high mountain apart.

mkjv@Matthew:17:2 @ And He was transfigured before them. And His face shone as the sun, and His clothing was white as the light.

mkjv@Matthew:17:3 @ And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah talking with Him.

mkjv@Matthew:17:4 @ And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here. If You will, let us make here three tabernacles; one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

mkjv@Matthew:17:5 @ While he yet spoke, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them. And behold a voice out of the cloud which said, This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased, hear Him.

mkjv@Matthew:17:6 @ And when the disciples heard, they fell on their face and were greatly terrified.

mkjv@Matthew:17:7 @ And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise and do not be terrified.

mkjv@Matthew:17:8 @ And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one except Jesus alone.

mkjv@Matthew:17:9 @ And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, Tell the vision to no one until the Son of man has risen from the dead.

mkjv@Matthew:17:10 @ And His disciples asked Him, saying, Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?

mkjv@Matthew:17:11 @ And answering Jesus said to them, Elijah truly shall come first and restore all things.

mkjv@Matthew:17:12 @ But I say to you that Elijah has come already, and they did not know him, but have done to him whatever they desired. Likewise also the Son of man shall suffer from them.

mkjv@Matthew:17:13 @ Then His disciples understood that He spoke to them about John the Baptist.

mkjv@Matthew:17:14 @ And when they came to the crowd, a man came to Him, kneeling down to Him and saying,

mkjv@Matthew:17:15 @ Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is a lunatic and grievously vexed; for oftentimes he falls into the fire, and often into the water.

mkjv@Matthew:17:16 @ And I brought him to Your disciples, and they could not cure him.

mkjv@Matthew:17:17 @ Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I suffer you? Bring him here to Me.

mkjv@Matthew:17:18 @ And Jesus rebuked the demon, and he departed out of him. And the child was cured from that very hour.

mkjv@Matthew:17:19 @ Then the disciples came to Jesus apart, and said, Why could we not cast him out?

mkjv@Matthew:17:20 @ And Jesus said to them, Because of your unbelief. For truly I say to you, If you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, Move from here to there. And it shall move. And nothing shall be impossible to you.

mkjv@Matthew:17:21 @ However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.

mkjv@Matthew:17:22 @ And while they stayed in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men.

mkjv@Matthew:17:23 @ And they will kill Him, and the third day He will be raised again. And they grieved exceedingly.

mkjv@Matthew:17:24 @ And when they had come to Capernaum, those who received the didrachmas came to Peter and said, Does your master not pay the didrachmas?

mkjv@Matthew:17:25 @ He said, Yes. And when he had come into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? From their sons, or from strangers?

mkjv@Matthew:17:26 @ Peter said to Him, From strangers. Jesus said to him, Then truly the sons are free.

mkjv@Matthew:17:27 @ But lest we should offend them, go to the sea and cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. And when you have opened its mouth, you shall find a stater; take that, and give it to them for Me and you.

mkjv@Matthew:18:1 @ At that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who is the greater in the kingdom of Heaven?

mkjv@Matthew:18:2 @ And Jesus called a little child to Him and set him in their midst,

mkjv@Matthew:18:3 @ and said, Truly I say to you, Unless you are converted and become as little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:18:4 @ Therefore whoever shall humble himself like this little child, this one is the greater in the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:18:5 @ And whoever shall receive one such little child in My name receives Me.

mkjv@Matthew:18:6 @ But whoever shall offend one of these little [ones] who believes in Me, it would be better for him that an ass's millstone were hung around his neck, and he be sunk in the depth of the sea.

mkjv@Matthew:18:7 @ Woe to the world because of offenses! For it is necessary that offenses come; but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!

mkjv@Matthew:18:8 @ And if your hand or your foot causes you to offend, cut them off and throw [them] from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

mkjv@Matthew:18:9 @ And if your eye offends you, pluck it out and throw [it] from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire.

mkjv@Matthew:18:10 @ Take heed [that] you do not despise one of these little [ones]. For I say to you that in Heaven their angels always behold the face of My Father in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:18:11 @ For the Son of man has come to save that which was lost.

mkjv@Matthew:18:12 @ What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them strays, does he not leave the ninety and nine [and] go into the mountains and seek the straying one?

mkjv@Matthew:18:13 @ And if it happens that he finds it, truly I say to you, he rejoices more over it than over the ninety and nine which did not stray.

mkjv@Matthew:18:14 @ Even so it is not [the] will of your Father in Heaven that one of these little [ones] should perish.

mkjv@Matthew:18:15 @ But if your brother shall trespass against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have gained your brother.

mkjv@Matthew:18:16 @ But if he will not hear [you], take one or two more with you, so that in [the] mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

mkjv@Matthew:18:17 @ And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell [it] to the church. But if he neglects to hear the church, let him be to you as a heathen and a tax-collector.

mkjv@Matthew:18:18 @ Truly I say to you, Whatever you shall bind on earth shall occur, having been bound in Heaven; and whatever you shall loose on earth shall occur, having been loosed in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:18:19 @ Again I say to you that if two of you shall agree on earth as regarding anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them by My Father in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:18:20 @ For where two or three are gathered together in My name, there I am in their midst.

mkjv@Matthew:18:21 @ Then Peter came to Him and said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? Until seven times?

mkjv@Matthew:18:22 @ Jesus said to him, I do not say to you, Until seven times; but, Until seventy times seven.

mkjv@Matthew:18:23 @ Therefore the kingdom of Heaven has been compared to a certain king who desired to make an accounting with his servants.

mkjv@Matthew:18:24 @ And when he had begun to count, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.

mkjv@Matthew:18:25 @ But as he had nothing to pay, his lord commanded that he, and his wife and children, and all that he had, be sold, and payment be made.

mkjv@Matthew:18:26 @ Then the servant fell down and worshiped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me and I will pay you all.

mkjv@Matthew:18:27 @ Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion and released him and forgave him the debt.

mkjv@Matthew:18:28 @ But the same servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. And he laid hands on him and took [him] by the throat, saying, Pay me what you owe.

mkjv@Matthew:18:29 @ And his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, Have patience with me and I will pay you all.

mkjv@Matthew:18:30 @ And he would not, but went and cast him into prison until he should pay the debt.

mkjv@Matthew:18:31 @ So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were very sorry. And they came and told their lord all that was done.

mkjv@Matthew:18:32 @ Then his lord, after he had called him, said to him, O wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt because you begged me.

mkjv@Matthew:18:33 @ Should you not also have pitied your fellow servant, even as I had pity on you?

mkjv@Matthew:18:34 @ And his lord was angry, and delivered him to the tormentors until he should pay all that was due to him.

mkjv@Matthew:18:35 @ So likewise shall My heavenly Father do also to you, unless each one of you from your hearts forgive his brother their trespasses.

mkjv@Matthew:19:1 @ And it happened, when Jesus had finished these sayings, that He departed from Galilee and came into the borders of Judea beyond Jordan.

mkjv@Matthew:19:2 @ And great crowds followed Him. And He healed them there.

mkjv@Matthew:19:3 @ And the Pharisees came to Him, tempting Him and saying to Him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?

mkjv@Matthew:19:4 @ And He answered and said to them, Have you not read that He who made [them] at the beginning made them male and female,

mkjv@Matthew:19:5 @ and said, For this cause a man shall leave father and mother and shall cling to his wife, and the two of them shall be one flesh?

mkjv@Matthew:19:6 @ Therefore they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.

mkjv@Matthew:19:7 @ They said to Him, Why did Moses then command to give a bill of divorce and to put her away?

mkjv@Matthew:19:8 @ He said to them, Because of your hard-heartedness Moses allowed you to put away your wives; but from the beginning it was not so.

mkjv@Matthew:19:9 @ And I say to you, Whoever shall put away his wife, except for fornication, and shall marry another, commits adultery; and whoever marries her [who is] put away commits adultery.

mkjv@Matthew:19:10 @ His disciples said to Him, If this is the case of the man with [his] wife, it is not good to marry.

mkjv@Matthew:19:11 @ But He said to them, Not all receive this word, except [those] to whom it is given.

mkjv@Matthew:19:12 @ For there are some eunuchs who were born so from [their] mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of Heaven's sake. He who is able to receive [it], let him receive it.

mkjv@Matthew:19:13 @ Then little children were brought to Him, that He should put [His] hands on them and pray. And the disciples rebuked them.

mkjv@Matthew:19:14 @ But Jesus said, Allow the little children to come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:19:15 @ And He laid [His] hands on them, and departed from there.

mkjv@Matthew:19:16 @ And behold, one came and said to Him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?

mkjv@Matthew:19:17 @ And He said to him, Why do you call Me good? [There is] none good but one, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.

mkjv@Matthew:19:18 @ He said to Him, Which? Jesus said, You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not bear false witness,

mkjv@Matthew:19:19 @ honor your father and mother, and, you shall love your neighbor as yourself.

mkjv@Matthew:19:20 @ The young man said to Him, I have kept all these things from my youth up; what do I lack yet?

mkjv@Matthew:19:21 @ Jesus said to him, If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to [the] poor, and you shall have treasure in Heaven. And come, follow Me.

mkjv@Matthew:19:22 @ But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful; for he had great possessions.

mkjv@Matthew:19:23 @ Then Jesus said to His disciples, Truly I say to you that a rich man will with great difficulty enter into the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:19:24 @ And again I say to you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Matthew:19:25 @ When His disciples heard, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?

mkjv@Matthew:19:26 @ But Jesus looked on [them] and said to them, With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.

mkjv@Matthew:19:27 @ Then answering Peter said to Him, Behold, we have forsaken all and have followed You. Therefore what shall we have?

mkjv@Matthew:19:28 @ And Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you that you who have followed Me, in the regeneration, when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of His glory, you also shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

mkjv@Matthew:19:29 @ And everyone who left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for My name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

mkjv@Matthew:19:30 @ But many [who are] first shall be last; and the last [shall be] first.

mkjv@Matthew:20:1 @ For the kingdom of Heaven is like a man, a housemaster, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers into his vineyard.

mkjv@Matthew:20:2 @ And when he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard.

mkjv@Matthew:20:3 @ And he went out about the third hour and saw others standing idle in the marketplace.

mkjv@Matthew:20:4 @ And he said to them, You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you. And they went.

mkjv@Matthew:20:5 @ And he went out about [the] sixth and ninth hour and did likewise.

mkjv@Matthew:20:6 @ And about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing idle, and said to them, Why do you stand here all day idle?

mkjv@Matthew:20:7 @ They said to him, Because no one has hired us. He said to them, You also go into the vineyard, and you shall receive whatever is right.

mkjv@Matthew:20:8 @ So when evening had come, the lord of the vineyard said to his steward, Call the laborers and pay them [their] wage, beginning from the last to the first.

mkjv@Matthew:20:9 @ And when they [who were hired about] the eleventh hour came, they each one received a denarius.

mkjv@Matthew:20:10 @ But when the first came, they supposed that they would received more; and they also each one received a denarius.

mkjv@Matthew:20:11 @ And receiving [it] they murmured against the master of the house,

mkjv@Matthew:20:12 @ saying, These last have worked [only] one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden and heat of the day.

mkjv@Matthew:20:13 @ But he answered one of them and said, Friend, I do you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius?

mkjv@Matthew:20:14 @ Take yours, and go; I will give to this last one the same as to you.

mkjv@Matthew:20:15 @ Is it not lawful for me to do what I want with my own? Is your eye evil because I am good?

mkjv@Matthew:20:16 @ So the last shall be first, and the first last, for many are called, but few are chosen.

mkjv@Matthew:20:17 @ And going up to Jerusalem, Jesus took the twelve disciples apart in the way, and said to them,

mkjv@Matthew:20:18 @ Behold, we go up to Jerusalem. And the Son of man shall be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes, and they shall condemn Him to death.

mkjv@Matthew:20:19 @ And they shall deliver Him to the nations to mock and to scourge and to crucify. And the third day He shall rise again.

mkjv@Matthew:20:20 @ Then the mother of Zebedee's children came to Him with her sons, worshiping and desiring a certain thing from Him.

mkjv@Matthew:20:21 @ And He said to her, What do you desire? She said to Him, Grant that these my two sons may sit in Your kingdom, the one on Your right hand and the other on the left.

mkjv@Matthew:20:22 @ But Jesus answered and said, You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They said to Him, We are able.

mkjv@Matthew:20:23 @ And He said to them, You shall indeed drink of My cup and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with; but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but [to those] for whom it has been prepared by My Father.

mkjv@Matthew:20:24 @ And when the ten heard [it], they were indignant concerning the two brothers.

mkjv@Matthew:20:25 @ But Jesus called them and said, You know that the rulers of the nations exercise dominion over them, and they who are great exercise authority over them.

mkjv@Matthew:20:26 @ However, it shall not be so among you. But whoever desires to be great among you, let him be your servant.

mkjv@Matthew:20:27 @ And whoever desires to be chief among you, let him be your servant;

mkjv@Matthew:20:28 @ even as the Son of man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.

mkjv@Matthew:20:29 @ And as they departed from Jericho, a great crowd followed Him.

mkjv@Matthew:20:30 @ And behold, two blind men were sitting by the wayside. When they heard that Jesus passed by, they cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David!

mkjv@Matthew:20:31 @ And the crowd rebuked them, saying that they should be silent. But they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David!

mkjv@Matthew:20:32 @ And Jesus stood still and called them, and said, What do you desire that I should do to you?

mkjv@Matthew:20:33 @ They said to Him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.

mkjv@Matthew:20:34 @ So Jesus had compassion [on them] and touched their eyes. And immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed Him.

mkjv@Matthew:21:1 @ And when they drew near Jerusalem, and had come to Bethphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,

mkjv@Matthew:21:2 @ saying to them, Go into the village across from you. And immediately you will find an ass tied, and a colt with her. Untie [them] and bring [them] to Me.

mkjv@Matthew:21:3 @ And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say, The Lord has need of them, and immediately He will send them.

mkjv@Matthew:21:4 @ All this was done so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:21:5 @ Tell the daughter of Zion, Behold, your King comes to you, meek, and sitting on an ass, even a colt the foal of an ass.

mkjv@Matthew:21:6 @ And the disciples went and did as Jesus commanded them.

mkjv@Matthew:21:7 @ And they brought the ass, even the colt, and put their clothes on them, and He sat on them.

mkjv@Matthew:21:8 @ And a very great crowd spread their garments in the way. Others cut down branches from the trees and spread [them] in the way.

mkjv@Matthew:21:9 @ And the crowds who went before, and those who followed, cried out, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed [is] He who comes in [the] name of [the] Lord! Hosanna in the highest!

mkjv@Matthew:21:10 @ And when He had come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?

mkjv@Matthew:21:11 @ And the crowd said, This is Jesus the prophet, from Nazareth of Galilee.

mkjv@Matthew:21:12 @ And Jesus went into the temple of God and cast out all those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of those who sold doves.

mkjv@Matthew:21:13 @ And He said to them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but you have made it a den of thieves.

mkjv@Matthew:21:14 @ And the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple, and He healed them.

mkjv@Matthew:21:15 @ And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things which He did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David, they were angry.

mkjv@Matthew:21:16 @ And they said to Him, Do you hear what these say? And Jesus said to them, Yes, have you never read, Out of [the] mouth of babes and sucklings You have perfected praise?

mkjv@Matthew:21:17 @ And leaving them, He went out of the city to Bethany, and spent the night there.

mkjv@Matthew:21:18 @ And returning early to the city, He hungered.

mkjv@Matthew:21:19 @ And seeing a fig tree in the way, He came [to] it and found nothing on it except leaves only. And He said to it, let no fruit grow on you forever. And immediately the fig tree withered away.

mkjv@Matthew:21:20 @ And when the disciples saw, they marveled, saying, How quickly the fig tree has withered away!

mkjv@Matthew:21:21 @ Jesus answered and said to them, Truly I say to you, If you have faith and do not doubt, you shall not only do [this miracle] of the fig tree, but also; if you shall say to this mountain, Be moved and be thrown into the sea; it shall be done.

mkjv@Matthew:21:22 @ And all things, whatever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive.

mkjv@Matthew:21:23 @ And when He had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to Him [as He was] teaching, and said, By what authority do you do these things? And who gave you this authority?

mkjv@Matthew:21:24 @ And Jesus answered and said to them, I will also ask you one thing; which if you tell Me, I likewise will tell you by what authority I do these things.

mkjv@Matthew:21:25 @ The baptism of John, where was it from? From Heaven or from men? And they reasoned within themselves, saying, If we shall say, From Heaven, he will say to us, Why then did you not believe him?

mkjv@Matthew:21:26 @ But if we shall say From men, we fear the people; for all consider John as a prophet.

mkjv@Matthew:21:27 @ And they answered Jesus and said, We cannot tell. And He said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

mkjv@Matthew:21:28 @ But what do you think? A man had two sons; and he came to the first and said, Son, go work in my vineyard today.

mkjv@Matthew:21:29 @ He answered and said, I will not. But afterwards he repented and went.

mkjv@Matthew:21:30 @ And he came to the second and said likewise. And he answered and said, I [go], sir; and did not go.

mkjv@Matthew:21:31 @ Which of the two did the will of [his] father? They said to Him, The first. Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you that the tax-collectors and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.

mkjv@Matthew:21:32 @ For John came to you in [the] way of righteousness, and you did not believe him. But the tax-collectors and the harlots believed him. And when you had seen [it], you did not repent afterwards so that you might believe him.

mkjv@Matthew:21:33 @ Hear another parable. There was a certain housemaster who planted a vineyard and hedged it round about, and dug a winepress in it, and built a tower, and rented it to vinedressers, and went into a far country.

mkjv@Matthew:21:34 @ And when the season of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the vinedressers to receive its fruits.

mkjv@Matthew:21:35 @ And the vinedressers took his servants, and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.

mkjv@Matthew:21:36 @ Again he sent other servants, more than the first, and they did the same to them.

mkjv@Matthew:21:37 @ But last of all he sent his son to them, saying, They will respect my son.

mkjv@Matthew:21:38 @ But when the vinedressers saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and get hold of his inheritance.

mkjv@Matthew:21:39 @ And taking him, they threw [him] out of the vineyard and killed [him].

mkjv@Matthew:21:40 @ Therefore when the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vinedressers?

mkjv@Matthew:21:41 @ They said to Him, Bad men! He will miserably destroy them and will rent out [his] vineyard to other vinedressers who will give him the fruits in their seasons.

mkjv@Matthew:21:42 @ Jesus said to them, Did you never read in the Scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, this One has become the head of [the] corner; this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes?

mkjv@Matthew:21:43 @ Therefore I say to you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you and given to a nation bringing out its fruits.

mkjv@Matthew:21:44 @ And he who falls on this Stone shall be broken, but on whomever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

mkjv@Matthew:21:45 @ And when the chief priests and Pharisees heard His parables, they knew that He spoke of them.

mkjv@Matthew:21:46 @ But seeking to lay hands on Him, they feared the crowd, because they held Him for a prophet.

mkjv@Matthew:22:1 @ And Jesus answered and spoke to them again by parables, and said,

mkjv@Matthew:22:2 @ The kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who made a marriage for his son.

mkjv@Matthew:22:3 @ And he sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding; and they would not come.

mkjv@Matthew:22:4 @ Again he sent out other servants, saying, Tell those who are invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and fatlings [are] killed, and all things [are] ready. Come to the marriage.

mkjv@Matthew:22:5 @ But not caring, they went their ways, one to [his] field, another to [his] trading.

mkjv@Matthew:22:6 @ And the rest took his servants and treated [them] spitefully, and killed [them].

mkjv@Matthew:22:7 @ But when the king heard, he was angry. And he sent out his armies and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.

mkjv@Matthew:22:8 @ Then he said to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they who were invited were not worthy.

mkjv@Matthew:22:9 @ Therefore go into the exits of the highways, and as many as you shall find, invite them to the marriage.

mkjv@Matthew:22:10 @ So the servants went out into the highways and gathered together as many as they found, both bad and good. And the wedding was filled with reclining guests.

mkjv@Matthew:22:11 @ And the king coming in to look over the guests, he saw a man there who did not have on a wedding garment.

mkjv@Matthew:22:12 @ And he said to him, Friend, how did you come in here without having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.

mkjv@Matthew:22:13 @ Then the king said to the servants, Bind him hand and foot and take him away, and cast [him] into outer darkness. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:22:14 @ For many are called, but few chosen.

mkjv@Matthew:22:15 @ Then the Pharisees left and took counsel that they might entangle Him in words.

mkjv@Matthew:22:16 @ And they sent their disciples out to Him along with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that you are true, and that you teach the way of God in truth. Nor do you care for anyone, for you do not regard [the] person of men.

mkjv@Matthew:22:17 @ Therefore tell us; what do you think? Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not?

mkjv@Matthew:22:18 @ But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why do you tempt Me, hypocrites?

mkjv@Matthew:22:19 @ Show Me the tribute money. And they brought a denarius to Him.

mkjv@Matthew:22:20 @ And He said to them, Whose image and inscription [is] this?

mkjv@Matthew:22:21 @ They said to Him, Caesar's. Then He said to them, Therefore render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's.

mkjv@Matthew:22:22 @ When they heard [these words], they marveled, and they left Him and went away.

mkjv@Matthew:22:23 @ On that day the Sadducees came to Him, who say that there is no resurrection. And they asked Him,

mkjv@Matthew:22:24 @ saying, Master, Moses said, If a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise up seed to his brother.

mkjv@Matthew:22:25 @ Now there were with us seven brothers. And the first, when he had married a wife, died. And, having no issue, he left his wife to his brother.

mkjv@Matthew:22:26 @ The second also did likewise, and the third, to the seventh.

mkjv@Matthew:22:27 @ And last of all the woman also died.

mkjv@Matthew:22:28 @ Therefore in the resurrection, whose wife shall she be, of the seven? For they all had her.

mkjv@Matthew:22:29 @ Jesus answered and said to them, You err, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God.

mkjv@Matthew:22:30 @ For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:22:31 @ But regarding the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:22:32 @ I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

mkjv@Matthew:22:33 @ And when the crowd heard [this], they were astonished at His doctrine.

mkjv@Matthew:22:34 @ But hearing that He had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees were gathered together.

mkjv@Matthew:22:35 @ Then one of them, a lawyer, asked, tempting Him and saying,

mkjv@Matthew:22:36 @ Master, which [is] the great commandment in the Law?

mkjv@Matthew:22:37 @ Jesus said to him, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.

mkjv@Matthew:22:38 @ This is the first and great commandment.

mkjv@Matthew:22:39 @ And the second [is] like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

mkjv@Matthew:22:40 @ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.

mkjv@Matthew:22:41 @ While the Pharisees were gathered, Jesus asked them,

mkjv@Matthew:22:42 @ saying, What do you think of Christ? Whose son is he? They say to Him, David's.

mkjv@Matthew:22:43 @ He said to them, How then does David by the Spirit call him Lord, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:22:44 @ the LORD said to my Lord, Sit on My right until I make Your enemies Your footstool for Your feet?

mkjv@Matthew:22:45 @ If David then calls Him Lord, how is He his son?

mkjv@Matthew:22:46 @ And no one was able to answer Him a word, nor did anyone dare from that day to question Him any more.

mkjv@Matthew:23:1 @ Then Jesus spoke to the crowd and to His disciples,

mkjv@Matthew:23:2 @ saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat.

mkjv@Matthew:23:3 @ Therefore whatever they tell you to observe, observe and do. But do not do according to their works; for they say, and do not do.

mkjv@Matthew:23:4 @ For they bind heavy and hard-to-carry burdens and lay [them] on men's shoulders. But they will not move them with one of their finger.

mkjv@Matthew:23:5 @ But they do all their works in order to be seen of men. They make their phylacteries broad and enlarge the borders of their garments.

mkjv@Matthew:23:6 @ And they love the first couch at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,

mkjv@Matthew:23:7 @ and greetings in the market-places, and to be called, Rabbi! Rabbi! by men.

mkjv@Matthew:23:8 @ But you must not be called Rabbi, for One is your teacher, Christ, and you are all brothers.

mkjv@Matthew:23:9 @ And call no one your father on the earth, for One is your Father in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:23:10 @ Nor be called teachers, for One is your Teacher, even Christ.

mkjv@Matthew:23:11 @ But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant.

mkjv@Matthew:23:12 @ And whoever shall exalt himself shall be abased, and he who shall humble himself shall be exalted.

mkjv@Matthew:23:13 @ But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of Heaven against men. For you neither go in, nor do you allow those entering to go in.

mkjv@Matthew:23:14 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows' houses, and pray at length as a pretense. Therefore you shall receive the greater condemnation.

mkjv@Matthew:23:15 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you compass sea and the dry [land] to make one proselyte, and when he is made, you make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

mkjv@Matthew:23:16 @ Woe to you, blind guides, saying, Whoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor.

mkjv@Matthew:23:17 @ Fools and blind! For which is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifies the gold?

mkjv@Matthew:23:18 @ And, Whoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever swears by the gift that is on it, [he is] a debtor!

mkjv@Matthew:23:19 @ Fools and blind! For which [is] greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifies the gift?

mkjv@Matthew:23:20 @ Therefore whoever shall swear by the altar swears by it, and by all things on it.

mkjv@Matthew:23:21 @ And whoever shall swear by the temple, swears by it and by Him who dwells in it.

mkjv@Matthew:23:22 @ And he who shall swear by Heaven swears by the throne of God, and by Him who sits on it.

mkjv@Matthew:23:23 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithes of mint and dill and cummin, and you have left undone the weightier [matters] of the Law, judgment, mercy, and faith. You ought to have done these and not to leave the other undone.

mkjv@Matthew:23:24 @ Blind guides who strain out a gnat and swallow a camel!

mkjv@Matthew:23:25 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside they are full of extortion and excess.

mkjv@Matthew:23:26 @ Blind Pharisee! First cleanse the inside of the cup and of the dish, so that the outside of them may be clean also.

mkjv@Matthew:23:27 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which indeed appear beautiful outside, but inside they are full of dead [men's] bones, and of all uncleanness.

mkjv@Matthew:23:28 @ Even so you also appear righteous to men outwardly, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

mkjv@Matthew:23:29 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you build the tombs of the prophets, and decorate the tombs of the righteous,

mkjv@Matthew:23:30 @ and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.

mkjv@Matthew:23:31 @ Therefore you are witnesses to yourselves, that you are the sons of those who killed the prophets;

mkjv@Matthew:23:32 @ and you fill up the measure of your fathers.

mkjv@Matthew:23:33 @ Serpents! Offspring of vipers! How can you escape the condemnation of hell?

mkjv@Matthew:23:34 @ Therefore, behold, I send prophets and wise men and scribes to you. And you will kill and crucify [some] of them. And some of them you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute from city to city;

mkjv@Matthew:23:35 @ so that on you may come all [the] righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah the son of Berachiah, whom you killed between the temple and the altar.

mkjv@Matthew:23:36 @ Truly I say to you, All these things shall come on this generation.

mkjv@Matthew:23:37 @ O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the [one] killing the prophets and stoning those who are sent to her, how often would I have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chicks under [her] wings, and you would not!

mkjv@Matthew:23:38 @ Behold, your house is left to you desolate.

mkjv@Matthew:23:39 @ For I say to you, You shall not see Me from now on until you say, Blessed [is] He who comes in [the] name of the Lord.

mkjv@Matthew:24:1 @ And Jesus went out and departed from the temple. And His disciples came to [Him] to show Him the buildings of the temple.

mkjv@Matthew:24:2 @ And Jesus said to them, Do you not see all these things? Truly I say to you, There shall not be left here one stone on another that shall not be thrown down.

mkjv@Matthew:24:3 @ And as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? And what [shall be] the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the world?

mkjv@Matthew:24:4 @ And Jesus answered and said to them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

mkjv@Matthew:24:5 @ For many will come in My name, saying, I am Christ, and will deceive many.

mkjv@Matthew:24:6 @ And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled, for all [these things] must occur; but the end is not yet.

mkjv@Matthew:24:7 @ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in different places.

mkjv@Matthew:24:8 @ All these [are] the beginning of sorrows.

mkjv@Matthew:24:9 @ Then they will deliver you up to be afflicted and will kill you. And you will be hated of all nations for My name's sake.

mkjv@Matthew:24:10 @ And then many will be offended, and will betray one another, and will hate one another.

mkjv@Matthew:24:11 @ And many false prophets will rise and deceive many.

mkjv@Matthew:24:12 @ And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many will become cold.

mkjv@Matthew:24:13 @ But he who endures to [the] end, the same shall be kept safe.

mkjv@Matthew:24:14 @ And this gospel of the kingdom shall be proclaimed in all the world as a witness to all nations. And then the end shall come.

mkjv@Matthew:24:15 @ Therefore when you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place (whoever reads, let him understand).

mkjv@Matthew:24:16 @ Then let those in Judea flee into the mountains.

mkjv@Matthew:24:17 @ Let him on the housetop not come down to take anything out of his house;

mkjv@Matthew:24:18 @ nor let him in the field turn back to take his clothes.

mkjv@Matthew:24:19 @ And woe to those who are with child, and to those who give suck in those days!

mkjv@Matthew:24:20 @ But pray that your flight is not in the winter, nor on the sabbath day;

mkjv@Matthew:24:21 @ for then shall be great tribulation, such as has not been since [the] beginning of [the] world to this time; no, nor ever shall be.

mkjv@Matthew:24:22 @ And unless those days should be shortened, no flesh would be saved. But for the elect's sake, those days shall be shortened.

mkjv@Matthew:24:23 @ Then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here [is] Christ! Or, There! Do not believe it.

mkjv@Matthew:24:24 @ For false Christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders; so much so that, if [it were] possible, they would deceive even the elect.

mkjv@Matthew:24:25 @ Behold, I have told you beforehand.

mkjv@Matthew:24:26 @ Therefore if they shall say to you, Behold, [He is] in the desert! Do not go out. Behold, [He is] in the secret rooms! Do not believe it.

mkjv@Matthew:24:27 @ For as the lightning comes out of [the] east and shines even to [the] west, so also will be the coming of the Son of man.

mkjv@Matthew:24:28 @ For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered.

mkjv@Matthew:24:29 @ And immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun shall be darkened and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.

mkjv@Matthew:24:30 @ And then the sign of the Son of man shall appear in the heavens. And then all the tribes of the earth shall mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of the heaven with power and great glory.

mkjv@Matthew:24:31 @ And He shall send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of [the] heavens to the other.

mkjv@Matthew:24:32 @ Now learn a parable of the fig tree. When its branch is still tender and puts out leaves, you know that summer [is] near.

mkjv@Matthew:24:33 @ So you, likewise, when you see all these things, shall know that it is near, [at] the doors.

mkjv@Matthew:24:34 @ Truly I say to you, This generation shall not pass until all these things are fulfilled.

mkjv@Matthew:24:35 @ The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away.

mkjv@Matthew:24:36 @ But of that day and hour no one knows, no, not the angels of Heaven, but only My Father.

mkjv@Matthew:24:37 @ But as the days of Noah [were], so shall be the coming of the Son of man.

mkjv@Matthew:24:38 @ For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until [the] day Noah entered into the ark.

mkjv@Matthew:24:39 @ And they did not know until the flood came and took them all away. So also will be the coming of the Son of man.

mkjv@Matthew:24:40 @ Then two shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

mkjv@Matthew:24:41 @ Two shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

mkjv@Matthew:24:42 @ Therefore watch; for you do not know what hour your Lord comes.

mkjv@Matthew:24:43 @ But know this, that if the steward of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched and would not have allowed his house to be dug through.

mkjv@Matthew:24:44 @ Therefore you also be ready, for in that hour you think not, the Son of man comes.

mkjv@Matthew:24:45 @ Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his Lord has made ruler over His household, to give them food in due season?

mkjv@Matthew:24:46 @ Blessed [is] that servant whom his Lord shall find him doing so when He comes.

mkjv@Matthew:24:47 @ Truly I say to you that He shall make him ruler over all His goods.

mkjv@Matthew:24:48 @ But if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My Lord delays His coming,

mkjv@Matthew:24:49 @ and shall begin to strike [his] fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunken,

mkjv@Matthew:24:50 @ the Lord of that servant shall come in a day when he does not look for [Him], and in an hour which he does not know.

mkjv@Matthew:24:51 @ And He shall cut him apart and appoint [him] his portion with the hypocrites. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:25:1 @ Then shall the kingdom of Heaven be likened to ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.

mkjv@Matthew:25:2 @ And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

mkjv@Matthew:25:3 @ The foolish ones took their lamps, but took no oil with them.

mkjv@Matthew:25:4 @ But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

mkjv@Matthew:25:5 @ While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

mkjv@Matthew:25:6 @ And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom comes! Go out to meet him.

mkjv@Matthew:25:7 @ Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.

mkjv@Matthew:25:8 @ And the foolish said to the wise, Give us [some] of your oil, for our lamps have gone out.

mkjv@Matthew:25:9 @ But the wise answered, saying, [No], lest there be not enough for us and you. But rather go to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.

mkjv@Matthew:25:10 @ And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came. And they who were ready went in with him to the marriage, and the door was shut.

mkjv@Matthew:25:11 @ Afterwards the other virgins came also, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

mkjv@Matthew:25:12 @ But he answered and said, Truly I say to you, I do not know you.

mkjv@Matthew:25:13 @ Therefore watch, for you do not know either the day or the hour in which the Son of man comes.

mkjv@Matthew:25:14 @ For [it is] as if a man going abroad called [his] own servants and gave them his goods.

mkjv@Matthew:25:15 @ And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to each according to his ability. And he went abroad at once.

mkjv@Matthew:25:16 @ And going he who had received the five talents traded with them, and made another five talents.

mkjv@Matthew:25:17 @ And likewise he who [had received] two, he also gained another two.

mkjv@Matthew:25:18 @ But he who had received the one talent went and dug in the earth and hid his lord's silver.

mkjv@Matthew:25:19 @ After a long time the lord of those servants came and took account with them.

mkjv@Matthew:25:20 @ And so he who had received five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, Lord, you delivered five talents to me. Behold, I have gained five talents above them.

mkjv@Matthew:25:21 @ His lord said to him, Well [done], good and faithful servant! You have been faithful over a few things; I will [make] you [ruler] over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.

mkjv@Matthew:25:22 @ He also who had received two talents came and said, Lord, you delivered two talents to me. Behold, I have gained two other talents above them.

mkjv@Matthew:25:23 @ His lord said to him, Well [done], good and faithful servant! You have been faithful over a few things, I will [make] you [ruler] over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.

mkjv@Matthew:25:24 @ And he who had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew that you were a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter.

mkjv@Matthew:25:25 @ And I was afraid and went and hid your talent in the earth. Lo, you have yours.

mkjv@Matthew:25:26 @ His lord answered and said to him, Evil and slothful servant! You knew that I reaped where I did not sow, and gathered where I did not scatter,

mkjv@Matthew:25:27 @ then you should have put my money to the exchangers, and coming I would have received my own with interest.

mkjv@Matthew:25:28 @ Therefore take the talent from him and give [it] to him who has ten talents.

mkjv@Matthew:25:29 @ For to everyone who has, [more] shall be given, and he will abound. But from him who has not, even that which he has shall be taken away from him.

mkjv@Matthew:25:30 @ And throw the unprofitable servant into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:25:31 @ But when the Son of man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He shall sit on the throne of His glory.

mkjv@Matthew:25:32 @ And all nations shall be gathered before Him. And He shall separate them from one another, as a shepherd divides the sheep from the goats.

mkjv@Matthew:25:33 @ And indeed [He] shall set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats off the left.

mkjv@Matthew:25:34 @ Then the King shall say to those on His right [hand], Come, blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from [the] foundation of [the] world.

mkjv@Matthew:25:35 @ For I was hungry, and you gave me food; I was thirsty, and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger, and you took Me in;

mkjv@Matthew:25:36 @ I was naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.

mkjv@Matthew:25:37 @ Then the righteous shall answer Him, saying, Lord, when did we see You hungry, and fed [You]? Or thirsty, and gave [You] drink?

mkjv@Matthew:25:38 @ When did we see You a stranger, and took [You] in? Or naked, and clothed [You]?

mkjv@Matthew:25:39 @ Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and came to You?

mkjv@Matthew:25:40 @ And the King shall answer and say to them, Truly I say to you, Inasmuch as you did [it] to one of the least of these My brothers, you have done [it] to Me.

mkjv@Matthew:25:41 @ Then He also shall say to those on [the] left [hand], Depart from Me, you cursed, into everlasting fire prepared for the Devil and his angels.

mkjv@Matthew:25:42 @ For I was hungry, and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty, and you gave Me no drink;

mkjv@Matthew:25:43 @ I was a stranger and you did not take Me in; I was naked, and you did not clothe Me; I was sick, and in prison, and you did not visit me.

mkjv@Matthew:25:44 @ Then they will also answer Him, saying, Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to You?

mkjv@Matthew:25:45 @ Then He shall answer them, saying, Truly I say to you, Inasmuch as you did not do [it] to one of the least of these, you did not do [it] to Me.

mkjv@Matthew:25:46 @ And these shall go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into everlasting life.

mkjv@Matthew:26:1 @ And it happened when Jesus finished all these sayings, He said to His disciples,

mkjv@Matthew:26:2 @ You know that after two days the Passover comes, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.

mkjv@Matthew:26:3 @ Then the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, assembled together to the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas.

mkjv@Matthew:26:4 @ And [they] consulted so that they might take Jesus by guile and kill [Him].

mkjv@Matthew:26:5 @ But they said, Not on the feast [day], lest there be an uproar among the people.

mkjv@Matthew:26:6 @ And when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

mkjv@Matthew:26:7 @ a woman came to Him, having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured [it] on His head as He reclined.

mkjv@Matthew:26:8 @ But when His disciples saw [it], they were indignant, saying, To what purpose [is] this waste?

mkjv@Matthew:26:9 @ For this ointment might have been sold for very much and given to [the] poor.

mkjv@Matthew:26:10 @ When Jesus understood [it], He said to them, Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a good work on Me.

mkjv@Matthew:26:11 @ For you have the poor with you always, but you do not always have Me.

mkjv@Matthew:26:12 @ For in putting ointment on My body, she did [it] for My burial.

mkjv@Matthew:26:13 @ Truly I say to you, Wherever this gospel shall be proclaimed in the whole world, that which this woman has done shall be spoken of also, for a memorial of her.

mkjv@Matthew:26:14 @ Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests.

mkjv@Matthew:26:15 @ And he said [to them], What will you give me, and I will betray Him to you? And they appointed to him thirty pieces of silver.

mkjv@Matthew:26:16 @ And from that time he sought opportunity to betray Him.

mkjv@Matthew:26:17 @ And on the first [day] of the [Feast of] Unleavened [Bread], the disciples came to Jesus, saying to Him, Where do You desire that we prepare for You to eat the Passover?

mkjv@Matthew:26:18 @ And He said, Go into the city to such a man, and say to him, The Master said, My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with My disciples.

mkjv@Matthew:26:19 @ And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them. And they made the passover ready.

mkjv@Matthew:26:20 @ And when evening had come, He sat down with the Twelve.

mkjv@Matthew:26:21 @ And as they ate, He said, Truly I say to you that one of you will betray Me.

mkjv@Matthew:26:22 @ And grieving sorrowfully, they began to say, each one of them, Lord, not I am [the one]?

mkjv@Matthew:26:23 @ And He answered and said, He who dips [his] hand with Me in the dish, the same shall betray Me.

mkjv@Matthew:26:24 @ The Son of man goes, as it has been written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born.

mkjv@Matthew:26:25 @ And answering, the [one] betraying Him, Judas, said, Master, Not am I [the one]? He said to him, You said [it].

mkjv@Matthew:26:26 @ And as they were eating, Jesus took bread and blessed [it], and broke [it], and gave [it] to the disciples, and said, Take, eat, this is My body.

mkjv@Matthew:26:27 @ And He took the cup and gave thanks, and gave [it] to them, saying, Drink all of it.

mkjv@Matthew:26:28 @ For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

mkjv@Matthew:26:29 @ But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on, until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom.

mkjv@Matthew:26:30 @ And singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

mkjv@Matthew:26:31 @ Then Jesus said to them, All of you will be offended because of Me this night. For it is written, I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.

mkjv@Matthew:26:32 @ But after I have risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.

mkjv@Matthew:26:33 @ Peter answered and said to Him, though all shall be offended because of You, I will never be offended.

mkjv@Matthew:26:34 @ Jesus said to him, Truly I say to you that this night, before the cock crows, you shall deny Me three times.

mkjv@Matthew:26:35 @ Peter said to Him, though I should die with You, yet I will not deny You. All the disciples also said the same.

mkjv@Matthew:26:36 @ Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane. And He said to the disciples, Sit here while I go and pray there.

mkjv@Matthew:26:37 @ And He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee with Him, and He began to be sorrowful and very heavy.

mkjv@Matthew:26:38 @ Then He said to them, My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Wait here and watch with Me.

mkjv@Matthew:26:39 @ And He went a little further and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me. Yet not as I will, but as You [will].

mkjv@Matthew:26:40 @ And He came to the disciples and found them asleep. And [He] said to Peter, What! Could you not watch with Me one hour?

mkjv@Matthew:26:41 @ Watch and pray that you enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed [is] willing, but the flesh [is] weak.

mkjv@Matthew:26:42 @ He went away again the second time and prayed, saying, My Father, if this cup may not pass away from Me unless I drink it, Your will be done.

mkjv@Matthew:26:43 @ And He came and found them asleep again, for their eyes were heavy.

mkjv@Matthew:26:44 @ And He left them and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same word.

mkjv@Matthew:26:45 @ Then He came to His disciples and said to them, Sleep on now and take [your] rest. Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into [the] hands of sinners.

mkjv@Matthew:26:46 @ Rise, let us be going; behold, he who is betraying Me is at hand.

mkjv@Matthew:26:47 @ And as He was yet speaking, behold, Judas came, one of the Twelve. And with him came a great crowd with swords and clubs, being sent from the chief priests and elders of the people.

mkjv@Matthew:26:48 @ And he who betrayed Him gave them a sign, saying, Whomever I shall kiss, He is the one, lay hold on Him.

mkjv@Matthew:26:49 @ And coming up to Jesus immediately, he said, Hail, Master! And [he] kissed Him.

mkjv@Matthew:26:50 @ And Jesus said to him, Friend, why are you here? Then they came and laid hands on Jesus and took Him.

mkjv@Matthew:26:51 @ And, behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out [his] hand and drew his sword, and he struck a servant of the high priest and [cut] off his ear.

mkjv@Matthew:26:52 @ Then Jesus said to him, Put up your sword again into its place; for all who take [the] sword shall perish with a sword.

mkjv@Matthew:26:53 @ Do you think that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He shall presently give Me more than twelve legions of angels?

mkjv@Matthew:26:54 @ But how then shall the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?

mkjv@Matthew:26:55 @ In that hour Jesus said to the crowds, Have you come out in order to take Me with swords and clubs, as against a thief? I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple, and you did not lay hands on Me.

mkjv@Matthew:26:56 @ But all this happened that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples fled, forsaking Him.

mkjv@Matthew:26:57 @ And they who had seized Jesus led [Him] away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had assembled.

mkjv@Matthew:26:58 @ But Peter followed Him afar off to the high priest's court, and he went in and sat with the servants to see the end.

mkjv@Matthew:26:59 @ And the chief priests and the elders and all the sanhedrin sought false witness against Jesus, in order to put Him to death.

mkjv@Matthew:26:60 @ But they found none; yea, though many false witnesses came, they found none. But at last two false witnesses came up

mkjv@Matthew:26:61 @ and said, This one said, I am able to destroy the temple of God and to build it in three days.

mkjv@Matthew:26:62 @ And standing up, the high priest said to Him, Do you answer nothing? What [is it that] these witness against you?

mkjv@Matthew:26:63 @ But Jesus was silent. And the high priest answered and said to Him, I adjure you by the living God that you tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God.

mkjv@Matthew:26:64 @ Jesus said to him, You said [it]. I tell you more. From this time you shall see the Son of man sitting on [the] right [hand] of power, and coming on the clouds of the heavens.

mkjv@Matthew:26:65 @ Then the high priest tore his clothes, saying, He has spoken blasphemy! What further need do we have of witnesses? Behold, now you have heard his blasphemy.

mkjv@Matthew:26:66 @ What do you think? They answered and said, He is worthy of death.

mkjv@Matthew:26:67 @ Then they spat in His face and beat Him with the fist. And others struck [Him] with the palms of their hands,

mkjv@Matthew:26:68 @ saying, Prophesy to us, Christ; who is the [one] who struck you?

mkjv@Matthew:26:69 @ And Peter sat outside in the court. And a girl came to him, saying, You also were with Jesus of Galilee.

mkjv@Matthew:26:70 @ But he denied all before [them], saying, I do not know what you say.

mkjv@Matthew:26:71 @ And when he had gone out into the porch, another saw him and said to those there, This one was also with Jesus of Nazareth.

mkjv@Matthew:26:72 @ And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.

mkjv@Matthew:26:73 @ And after a little while those who stood by came and said to Peter, Surely you also are [one] of them, for your speech betrays you.

mkjv@Matthew:26:74 @ Then he began to curse and to swear, I do not know the man. And immediately the cock crowed.

mkjv@Matthew:26:75 @ And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, Who said to him, Before the cock crows, you shall deny Me three times. And he went out and wept bitterly.

mkjv@Matthew:27:1 @ And [it] becoming early morning, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put Him to death.

mkjv@Matthew:27:2 @ And when they had bound Him, they led [Him] away and delivered Him to Pontius Pilate the governor.

mkjv@Matthew:27:3 @ Then he who had betrayed Him, seeing that He was condemned, sorrowing, Judas returned the thirty pieces of silver again to the chief priests and elders,

mkjv@Matthew:27:4 @ saying, I have sinned, betraying innocent blood. And they said, What [is that] to us? You see [to that].

mkjv@Matthew:27:5 @ And he threw the pieces of silver down in the temple and departed. And he went and hanged himself.

mkjv@Matthew:27:6 @ And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, because it is [the] price of blood.

mkjv@Matthew:27:7 @ And they took counsel and bought the potter's field with them, to bury strangers in.

mkjv@Matthew:27:8 @ Therefore that field was called, The Field of Blood, to this day.

mkjv@Matthew:27:9 @ Then that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of Him who had been priced, whom they of the children of Israel valued,

mkjv@Matthew:27:10 @ and gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.

mkjv@Matthew:27:11 @ And Jesus stood before the governor. And the governor asked Him, saying, Are you the king of the Jews? And Jesus said to him, You say [it].

mkjv@Matthew:27:12 @ And when He was accused by the chief priests and elders, He answered nothing.

mkjv@Matthew:27:13 @ Then Pilate said to Him, Do you not hear how many things they witness against you?

mkjv@Matthew:27:14 @ And He did not answer him a word, so that the governor greatly marveled.

mkjv@Matthew:27:15 @ Now at [that] feast the governor was accustomed to release to the people a prisoner, whomever they desired.

mkjv@Matthew:27:16 @ And they then had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas.

mkjv@Matthew:27:17 @ Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, Whom do you desire that I release to you? Barabbas, or Jesus [who is] called Christ?

mkjv@Matthew:27:18 @ For he knew they had delivered Him because of envy.

mkjv@Matthew:27:19 @ But as he was sitting down on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have nothing to do with that just man, for today because of Him I have suffered many things in a dream.

mkjv@Matthew:27:20 @ But the chief priests and elders persuaded the crowd that they should ask [for] Barabbas and destroy Jesus.

mkjv@Matthew:27:21 @ The governor answered and said to them, Which of the two do you desire that I release [to] you? They said, Barabbas.

mkjv@Matthew:27:22 @ Pilate said to them, What then shall I do with Jesus, who is called Christ? [They] all said to him, Let Him be crucified.

mkjv@Matthew:27:23 @ And the governor said, Why? What evil has He done? But they cried out the more, saying, let Him be crucified!

mkjv@Matthew:27:24 @ But when Pilate saw that it gained nothing, but rather [that] a tumult was made, he took water and washed [his] hands before the crowd, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person. You see to it.

mkjv@Matthew:27:25 @ Then all the people answered and said, Let His blood [be] on us and on our children.

mkjv@Matthew:27:26 @ Then he released Barabbas to them. And when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered [Him] to be crucified.

mkjv@Matthew:27:27 @ Then taking Jesus into the praetorium, the soldiers of the governor gathered the cohort against Him.

mkjv@Matthew:27:28 @ And stripping Him, they put a scarlet robe around Him.

mkjv@Matthew:27:29 @ And plaiting a crown of thorns, they put [it] on His head, and a reed in His right hand. And they bowed the knee before Him and mocked Him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

mkjv@Matthew:27:30 @ And spitting at Him, [they] took the reed and struck at His head.

mkjv@Matthew:27:31 @ And after they had mocked Him, they took the robe off of Him and put His own clothing on Him and led Him away to crucify [Him].

mkjv@Matthew:27:32 @ And going out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. They forced this one to carry His cross.

mkjv@Matthew:27:33 @ And coming to a place called Golgotha, which is called, Place of a Skull,

mkjv@Matthew:27:34 @ they gave Him vinegar mixed with gall to drink. And when He had tasted, He would not drink.

mkjv@Matthew:27:35 @ And they crucified Him, dividing His garments, casting a lot; so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted My garments among them, and they cast a lot for My clothing.

mkjv@Matthew:27:36 @ And sitting down they guarded Him there.

mkjv@Matthew:27:37 @ And they put up over His head His accusation, written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

mkjv@Matthew:27:38 @ Then two thieves were crucified with Him, one off [the] right, one off [the] left.

mkjv@Matthew:27:39 @ And those who passed by blasphemed Him, shaking their heads,

mkjv@Matthew:27:40 @ and saying, [You] destroying the temple and building [it] in three days, save yourself. If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross.

mkjv@Matthew:27:41 @ And in the same way also the chief priests mocked, with the scribes and elders, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:27:42 @ He saved others, but he cannot save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

mkjv@Matthew:27:43 @ He trusted in God, let Him deliver him now, if He will have him. (For He said, I am [the] Son of God.)

mkjv@Matthew:27:44 @ And also the thieves who were crucified with Him reviled Him, [saying] the same.

mkjv@Matthew:27:45 @ And from [the] sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until [the] ninth hour.

mkjv@Matthew:27:46 @ And about the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? That is, My God, My God, why have You forsaken me?

mkjv@Matthew:27:47 @ Some of those who stood there, when they heard, said, This one calls for Elijah.

mkjv@Matthew:27:48 @ And immediately one of them ran and took a sponge and filled it with vinegar, and he put [it] on a reed and gave it to Him to drink.

mkjv@Matthew:27:49 @ The rest said, Let Him alone, let us see whether Elijah will come to save Him.

mkjv@Matthew:27:50 @ And crying again with a loud voice, Jesus released [His] spirit.

mkjv@Matthew:27:51 @ And, behold! The veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. And the earth quaked, and the rocks were sheared,

mkjv@Matthew:27:52 @ and the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep arose,

mkjv@Matthew:27:53 @ and coming out of the tomb after His resurrection [they] went into the holy city and appeared to many.

mkjv@Matthew:27:54 @ But the centurion and those guarding Jesus, seeing the earthquake, and the things that took place, [they] feared greatly, saying, Truly this One was Son of God.

mkjv@Matthew:27:55 @ And many of the women were there, watching from a distance, [those] who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to Him, watching from a distance;

mkjv@Matthew:27:56 @ among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's children.

mkjv@Matthew:27:57 @ When the evening had come, a rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, came, who also himself was Jesus' disciple.

mkjv@Matthew:27:58 @ He went to Pilate and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.

mkjv@Matthew:27:59 @ When Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in clean linen,

mkjv@Matthew:27:60 @ and laid it in his new tomb, which he had cut out of the rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb and departed.

mkjv@Matthew:27:61 @ And Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, were sitting there across from the tomb.

mkjv@Matthew:27:62 @ And on the next day, which was after the Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered to Pilate,

mkjv@Matthew:27:63 @ saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while He was living, After three days I will rise again.

mkjv@Matthew:27:64 @ Then command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night and steal him away and say to the people, He has risen from the dead. So the last error will be worse than the first.

mkjv@Matthew:27:65 @ Pilate said to them, You have a watch. Go and make [it] as secure as you can.

mkjv@Matthew:27:66 @ And going they made the tomb secure, sealing the stone along with the guard.

mkjv@Matthew:28:1 @ But late in the week, at the dawning into the first [day] of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb.

mkjv@Matthew:28:2 @ And behold, a great earthquake occurred! For coming down from Heaven, and coming up, an angel of [the] Lord rolled back the stone from the door and [was] sitting on it.

mkjv@Matthew:28:3 @ His countenance was like lightning, and his clothing white as snow.

mkjv@Matthew:28:4 @ And the keepers shook for fear of him and became like dead [men].

mkjv@Matthew:28:5 @ And the angel answered and said to the women, Do not fear, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.

mkjv@Matthew:28:6 @ He is not here, for He has risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.

mkjv@Matthew:28:7 @ And go quickly and tell His disciples that He has risen from the dead. And, behold, He goes before you into Galilee. There you shall see Him. Lo, I have told you.

mkjv@Matthew:28:8 @ And they quickly departed from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to bring His disciples word.

mkjv@Matthew:28:9 @ But as they were going to report to His disciples, behold, Jesus also met them, saying, Hail! And they came and held Him by the feet and worshiped Him.

mkjv@Matthew:28:10 @ Then Jesus said to them, Do not be afraid; go tell My brothers that they should go into Galilee, and there they will see Me.

mkjv@Matthew:28:11 @ And as they were going, behold, some of the guard came into the city and declared all the things that were done to the chief priests.

mkjv@Matthew:28:12 @ And being assembled with the elders, and taking counsel, [they] gave enough silver to the soldiers,

mkjv@Matthew:28:13 @ saying, Say that His disciples came by night [and] stole Him [away] while we slept.

mkjv@Matthew:28:14 @ And if this comes to the governor's ears, we will persuade him and make you free from care.

mkjv@Matthew:28:15 @ And taking the silver, they did as they were taught. And this saying was spread among the Jews until today.

mkjv@Matthew:28:16 @ And the eleven disciples went into Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had appointed them.

mkjv@Matthew:28:17 @ And when they saw Him, they worshiped Him. But some doubted.

mkjv@Matthew:28:18 @ And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, All authority is given to Me in Heaven and in earth.

mkjv@Matthew:28:19 @ Therefore go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

mkjv@Matthew:28:20 @ teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold, I am with you all the days until the end of the world. Amen.

mkjv@Mark:1:1 @ The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, [the] Son of God:

mkjv@Mark:1:2 @ as it is written in the Prophets, Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, who shall prepare Your way before You.

mkjv@Mark:1:3 @ The voice of one crying in the wilderness, prepare the way of [the] Lord, make His paths straight.

mkjv@Mark:1:4 @ John came baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

mkjv@Mark:1:5 @ And all the land of Judea, and those of Jerusalem, went out to him and were all baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.

mkjv@Mark:1:6 @ And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a leather girdle about his loin. And he ate locusts and wild honey.

mkjv@Mark:1:7 @ And he proclaimed, saying, There is One coming after me who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down to loosen.

mkjv@Mark:1:8 @ I indeed have baptized you in water, but He shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Mark:1:9 @ And it happened in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

mkjv@Mark:1:10 @ And immediately coming up out of the water, He saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon Him.

mkjv@Mark:1:11 @ And there came a voice from Heaven, [saying], You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

mkjv@Mark:1:12 @ And immediately the Spirit drove Him into the wilderness.

mkjv@Mark:1:13 @ And He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan. And He was with the wild beasts, and the angels ministered to Him.

mkjv@Mark:1:14 @ And after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom of God,

mkjv@Mark:1:15 @ and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God draws near. Repent, and believe the gospel.

mkjv@Mark:1:16 @ And walking along beside the sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

mkjv@Mark:1:17 @ And Jesus said to them, Come after Me and I will make you fishers of men.

mkjv@Mark:1:18 @ And immediately they left their nets and followed Him.

mkjv@Mark:1:19 @ And when He going farther from there a little, He saw James [the son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.

mkjv@Mark:1:20 @ And immediately He called them. And they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants and went after Him.

mkjv@Mark:1:21 @ And they went into Capernaum. And immediately on the sabbath day He entered into the synagogue and taught.

mkjv@Mark:1:22 @ And they were astonished at His doctrine. For He taught them as one who had authority, and not like the scribes.

mkjv@Mark:1:23 @ And in their synagogue was a man with an unclean spirit. And he cried out,

mkjv@Mark:1:24 @ saying, What [is] to us and to You, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know You, who You are, the Holy One of God.

mkjv@Mark:1:25 @ And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be quiet, and come out of him.

mkjv@Mark:1:26 @ And the unclean spirit, convulsing him, and crying with a loud voice, he came out of him.

mkjv@Mark:1:27 @ They all were amazed, so as to question among themselves, saying, What is this? What new doctrine [is] this? For He even commands the unclean spirits with authority, and they obey Him.

mkjv@Mark:1:28 @ And immediately His fame went out into all the Galilean neighborhood.

mkjv@Mark:1:29 @ And immediately after they had come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

mkjv@Mark:1:30 @ But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and at once they told Him about her.

mkjv@Mark:1:31 @ And He came and took her by the hand and lifted her up. And instantly the fever left her, and she served them.

mkjv@Mark:1:32 @ And at evening, when the sun set, they brought all those who were diseased to Him, and those who had been demon-possessed.

mkjv@Mark:1:33 @ And all the city had gathered at the door.

mkjv@Mark:1:34 @ And He healed many who were sick of different diseases, and cast out many demons. And He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew Him.

mkjv@Mark:1:35 @ And rising up quite early in [the] night, He went out and went away into a deserted place, and [He] was praying there.

mkjv@Mark:1:36 @ And Simon, and those with him, searched for Him.

mkjv@Mark:1:37 @ And finding Him, they said to Him, All are seeking You.

mkjv@Mark:1:38 @ And He said to them, Let us go into the next towns so that I may proclaim there also. For that reason I came forth.

mkjv@Mark:1:39 @ And He proclaimed in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out demons.

mkjv@Mark:1:40 @ And a leper came to Him, begging Him and kneeling down to Him, and saying to Him, If You will, You can make me clean.

mkjv@Mark:1:41 @ And Jesus, moved with compassion, put out [His] hand and touched him, and said to him, I will; be clean!

mkjv@Mark:1:42 @ And He having spoken, the leprosy instantly departed from him and he was cleansed.

mkjv@Mark:1:43 @ And He strictly charged him and immediately sent him away,

mkjv@Mark:1:44 @ and He said to him, See that you say nothing to anyone. But go and show yourself to the priest, and offer those things which Moses commanded for your cleansing, for a testimony to them.

mkjv@Mark:1:45 @ But going out, he began to proclaim [it] very much, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was outside in deserted places. And they came to Him from every quarter.

mkjv@Mark:2:1 @ And again He entered into Capernaum after [some] days. And it was heard that He was in [a] house.

mkjv@Mark:2:2 @ And immediately many were gathered, so that none any longer had room, even to the door. And He proclaimed the Word to them.

mkjv@Mark:2:3 @ Then they came to Him, bringing one [who was] paralyzed, who was carried by four.

mkjv@Mark:2:4 @ When they could not come near to Him because of the crowd, they unroofed the roof where He was. And digging through, they let down the cot on which the paralytic was lying.

mkjv@Mark:2:5 @ And seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralytic, Child, your sins are forgiven to you.

mkjv@Mark:2:6 @ But some of the scribes were sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,

mkjv@Mark:2:7 @ Why does this one speak such blasphemies? Who can forgive sins except God only?

mkjv@Mark:2:8 @ And instantly knowing in His spirit that they reasoned so within themselves, He said to them, Why do you reason these things in your heart?

mkjv@Mark:2:9 @ Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, [Your] sins are forgiven you; or to say, Arise, and take up your cot and walk?

mkjv@Mark:2:10 @ But so that you may know that the Son of man has authority upon earth to forgive sins, He said to the paralytic,

mkjv@Mark:2:11 @ I say to you, Arise, and take up your cot, and go to your house.

mkjv@Mark:2:12 @ And immediately he arose and took up his cot and went out before all. So that all were amazed and glorified God, saying, We never saw [it] this way.

mkjv@Mark:2:13 @ And He went out again by the seaside. And all the crowd came to Him, and He taught them.

mkjv@Mark:2:14 @ And as He passed on, He saw Levi [the son] of Alpheus sitting at the tax-office. And [He] said to him, Follow Me. And he arose and followed Him.

mkjv@Mark:2:15 @ And it happened as Jesus reclined in his house, many tax-collectors and sinners also reclined with Jesus and His disciples. For there were many, and they followed Him.

mkjv@Mark:2:16 @ And when the scribes and Pharisees saw Him eat with tax-collectors and sinners, [they] said to His disciples, How [is it] that He eats and drinks with tax-collectors and sinners?

mkjv@Mark:2:17 @ When Jesus heard, He said to them, They who are strong have no need of a physician, but the ones who have illness. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

mkjv@Mark:2:18 @ The disciples of John and those of the Pharisees were fasting. And they came and said to Him, Why do John's disciples and those of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?

mkjv@Mark:2:19 @ And Jesus said to them, Can the sons of the bridechamber fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them they cannot fast.

mkjv@Mark:2:20 @ But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then they shall fast in those days.

mkjv@Mark:2:21 @ And no one sews a patch of new cloth on an old garment, else [it] takes away from its fullness, the new [from] the old, and a worse tear occurs.

mkjv@Mark:2:22 @ No one puts new wine into old wineskins, else the new wine bursts the wineskins, and the wine spills, and the wineskins will be ruined. The new wine must be put into new wineskins.

mkjv@Mark:2:23 @ And it happened that He went through the grainfields on the sabbath day. And as they walked His disciples began to pluck the heads [of grain].

mkjv@Mark:2:24 @ And the Pharisees said to Him, Behold, why do they do that which is not lawful on the sabbath day?

mkjv@Mark:2:25 @ And He said to them, Have you never read what David did, when he had need and was hungry, he, and those with him?

mkjv@Mark:2:26 @ How he went into the house of God in [the days of] Abiathar the high priest and ate the showbread, which it is not lawful to eat, except for the priests, and also gave to those with him?

mkjv@Mark:2:27 @ And He said to them, The sabbath came into being for man's sake, and not man for the sabbath's sake.

mkjv@Mark:2:28 @ Therefore the Son of man is also Lord of the sabbath.

mkjv@Mark:3:1 @ And He again entered into the synagogue. And a man was there who had a withered hand.

mkjv@Mark:3:2 @ And they watched Him to see if He would heal him on the sabbath day, so that they might accuse Him.

mkjv@Mark:3:3 @ And He said to the man who had the withered hand, Arise! Come into the middle.

mkjv@Mark:3:4 @ And He said to them, [Is it] lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil? To save life, or to kill? But they were silent.

mkjv@Mark:3:5 @ And looking around on them with anger, being grieved because of the hardness of their hearts, He said to the man, Stretch out your hand! And he stretched [it] out. And his hand was restored whole, like the other.

mkjv@Mark:3:6 @ The Pharisees went out and immediately took counsel with the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him.

mkjv@Mark:3:7 @ And Jesus withdrew to the sea with His disciples. And a great crowd from Galilee followed Him, and from Judea,

mkjv@Mark:3:8 @ and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea, and [from] beyond Jordan, and those around Tyre and Sidon, a great throng came to him, having heard how much He was doing.

mkjv@Mark:3:9 @ And He spoke to His disciples, so that a small boat should stay near to Him, because of the crowd, lest they should press on Him.

mkjv@Mark:3:10 @ For He had healed many, so that they pressed on Him in order to touch Him, as many as had plagues.

mkjv@Mark:3:11 @ And unclean spirits, when they saw Him, [they] fell down before Him and cried, saying, You are the Son of God!

mkjv@Mark:3:12 @ And He strictly charged them that they should not make Him known.

mkjv@Mark:3:13 @ And He went up into a mountain and called near those whom He would. And they came to Him.

mkjv@Mark:3:14 @ And He ordained twelve, that they should be with Him, and that He might send them out to proclaim,

mkjv@Mark:3:15 @ and to have authority to heal sicknesses, and to cast out demons.

mkjv@Mark:3:16 @ And He put on Simon [the] name Peter.

mkjv@Mark:3:17 @ And He put on James [the son] of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, [the] names Boanerges, which is, the Sons of Thunder.

mkjv@Mark:3:18 @ And [He appointed] Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James [the son] of Alpheus, and Thaddeus, and Simon the Canaanite,

mkjv@Mark:3:19 @ and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him. And they went into a house.

mkjv@Mark:3:20 @ And again a crowd came together, so that they could not even eat bread.

mkjv@Mark:3:21 @ And hearing, those with Him went out to take hold [of] Him; for they said, He is insane.

mkjv@Mark:3:22 @ And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, He has Beelzebub, and He casts out demons by the ruler of the demons.

mkjv@Mark:3:23 @ And He called them and said to them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?

mkjv@Mark:3:24 @ And if a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

mkjv@Mark:3:25 @ And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

mkjv@Mark:3:26 @ And if Satan rises up against himself, and is divided, he cannot stand, but has an end.

mkjv@Mark:3:27 @ No one can enter into a strong one's house and plunder his goods, except he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house.

mkjv@Mark:3:28 @ Truly I say to you, all sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and blasphemies with which they shall blaspheme.

mkjv@Mark:3:29 @ But he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never shall have forgiveness, but is liable to eternal condemnation.

mkjv@Mark:3:30 @ Because they said, He has an unclean spirit.

mkjv@Mark:3:31 @ Then His brothers and His mother came. And standing outside, [they] sent to Him, calling Him.

mkjv@Mark:3:32 @ And the crowd sat about Him, and they said to Him, Behold, Your mother and Your brothers are outside seeking for You.

mkjv@Mark:3:33 @ And He answered them, saying, Who is My mother, or My brothers?

mkjv@Mark:3:34 @ And He looked around on those who sat about Him, and said, Behold My mother and My brothers!

mkjv@Mark:3:35 @ For whoever does the will of God, the same is My brother and My sister and My mother.

mkjv@Mark:4:1 @ And He began again to teach by the seaside. And there was a great crowd gathered to Him, so that He entered into a boat and sat in the sea. And the whole crowd was on the land by the seaside.

mkjv@Mark:4:2 @ And He taught them many things by a parable. And He said to them in His teaching:

mkjv@Mark:4:3 @ Listen! Behold, a sower went out to sow.

mkjv@Mark:4:4 @ And as he sowed, it happened that indeed some fell by the wayside, and the fowls of the air came and ate it up.

mkjv@Mark:4:5 @ And another fell on stony ground, where it did not have much earth. And it sprang up at once, due to not having deepness of earth.

mkjv@Mark:4:6 @ And when [the] sun rose, it was scorched. And because it had no root, it withered away.

mkjv@Mark:4:7 @ And another fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

mkjv@Mark:4:8 @ And another fell on good ground and yielded fruit, going up and increasing. And one bore thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundredfold.

mkjv@Mark:4:9 @ And He said to them, He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

mkjv@Mark:4:10 @ And when He was alone, they who were about Him, with the Twelve, asked Him concerning the parable.

mkjv@Mark:4:11 @ And He said to them, To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God. But to those outside, all [these] things are [given] in parables

mkjv@Mark:4:12 @ so that seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and [their] sins should be forgiven them.

mkjv@Mark:4:13 @ And He said to them, Do you not know this parable? And how then will you know all parables?

mkjv@Mark:4:14 @ The sower sows the Word.

mkjv@Mark:4:15 @ And these are those by the wayside, where the Word is sown. And when they hear, Satan comes immediately and takes away the Word that was sown in their hearts.

mkjv@Mark:4:16 @ And these are those likewise being sown on stony places; who, when they hear the Word, immediately receive it with gladness.

mkjv@Mark:4:17 @ But they have no root in themselves, but are temporary. Afterward when affliction or persecution arises for the Word's sake, they are immediately offended.

mkjv@Mark:4:18 @ And these are those being sown among thorns; such as hear the Word,

mkjv@Mark:4:19 @ and the cares of this world, and the deceit of riches, and the lust about other things entering in, choke the Word, and it becomes unfruitful.

mkjv@Mark:4:20 @ And these are those sown on good ground, who hear the Word and welcome [it], and bear fruit, one thirty, one sixty, and one a hundredfold.

mkjv@Mark:4:21 @ And He said to them, Does a lamp come to be put under a grain-measure, or under a bed? and not to be set on a lampstand?

mkjv@Mark:4:22 @ For there is nothing hidden which shall not be revealed; nor became covered, but that it might come to the light.

mkjv@Mark:4:23 @ If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.

mkjv@Mark:4:24 @ And He said to them, Take heed what you hear. With that measure which you measure, it shall be measured to you. And to you who hear, more shall be given.

mkjv@Mark:4:25 @ For he who has, [more] shall be given to him; and he who has not, from him shall be taken even that which he has.

mkjv@Mark:4:26 @ And He said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;

mkjv@Mark:4:27 @ and should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knows not how.

mkjv@Mark:4:28 @ For the earth brings out fruit of itself, first the blade, then the ear, after that the full grain in the ear.

mkjv@Mark:4:29 @ But when the fruit has been brought out, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.

mkjv@Mark:4:30 @ And He said, to what shall we compare the kingdom of God? Or by what parable shall we compare it?

mkjv@Mark:4:31 @ [It is] like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that are in the earth.

mkjv@Mark:4:32 @ But when it has been sown, it grows up and becomes greater than all herbs, and shoots out great branches, so as to enable the birds of the air to roost under its shade.

mkjv@Mark:4:33 @ And with many such parables He spoke the Word to them, as they were able to hear [it].

mkjv@Mark:4:34 @ But he did not speak to them without a parable. And when [they were] alone, He explained all things to His disciples.

mkjv@Mark:4:35 @ And evening having come, He said to them on that day, Let us pass over to the other side.

mkjv@Mark:4:36 @ And when they had sent away the crowd, they took Him with them as He was in the boat. And there were also other little boats with Him.

mkjv@Mark:4:37 @ And there arose a windstorm, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was now full.

mkjv@Mark:4:38 @ And He was in the stern of the boat, asleep on a headrest. And they awakened Him and said to Him, Master, do You not care that we perish?

mkjv@Mark:4:39 @ And He awakened and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, Peace! Be still! And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

mkjv@Mark:4:40 @ And He said to them, Why are you so fearful? How [is it] that you have no faith?

mkjv@Mark:4:41 @ And they feared exceedingly and said to one another, What kind of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?

mkjv@Mark:5:1 @ And they came over to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarenes.

mkjv@Mark:5:2 @ And when He had come out of the boat, immediately a man with unclean spirits met Him out of the tombs,

mkjv@Mark:5:3 @ who had [his] dwelling among the tombs. And no one could bind him, no, not with chains

mkjv@Mark:5:4 @ because he had often been bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn apart by him, and the fetters broken in pieces. Nor could anyone subdue him.

mkjv@Mark:5:5 @ And always, night and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying and cutting himself with stones.

mkjv@Mark:5:6 @ And when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshiped Him,

mkjv@Mark:5:7 @ and cried with a loud voice, and said, What [is] to me and to You, Jesus, son of the Most High God? I adjure You by God not to torment me.

mkjv@Mark:5:8 @ For He said to him, Come out of the man, unclean spirit!

mkjv@Mark:5:9 @ And He asked him, What [is] your name? And he answered, saying, My name [is] Legion, for we are many.

mkjv@Mark:5:10 @ And he begged Him very much that He would not send them outside the country.

mkjv@Mark:5:11 @ And a great herd of pigs was feeding near the mountains.

mkjv@Mark:5:12 @ And all the demons begged Him, saying, Send us into the pigs, that we may enter into them.

mkjv@Mark:5:13 @ And immediately Jesus allowed them. And the unclean spirits went out and entered into the pigs. And the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea (they were about two thousand), and were choked in the sea.

mkjv@Mark:5:14 @ And the ones who fed the pigs fled and told [it] in the city and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.

mkjv@Mark:5:15 @ And they came to Jesus and saw him who had been demon-possessed, and had the legion, sitting and clothed and right-minded, the one who had the legion. And they were afraid.

mkjv@Mark:5:16 @ And those who had seen told them how it happened to the one who had been demon-possessed, and about the pigs.

mkjv@Mark:5:17 @ And they began to beg Him to leave their borders.

mkjv@Mark:5:18 @ And when He had come into the boat, the [former] demoniac begged Him that he might be with Him.

mkjv@Mark:5:19 @ However Jesus did not allow him, but said to him, Go home to your friends, and tell them what great things the Lord has done for you, and has had mercy on you.

mkjv@Mark:5:20 @ And he departed and began to proclaim in Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And all marvelled.

mkjv@Mark:5:21 @ And Jesus having crossed again by boat to the other side, a large crowd collected on Him. And He was near the sea.

mkjv@Mark:5:22 @ And, behold, one of the synagogue rulers came, Jairus by name. And when he saw Him, [he] fell at His feet.

mkjv@Mark:5:23 @ And he begged Him greatly, saying, My little daughter lies at the point of death. Come, lay Your hands on her, so that she may be healed, and she shall live.

mkjv@Mark:5:24 @ And [Jesus] went with him. And many people followed Him and thronged Him.

mkjv@Mark:5:25 @ And a certain woman who had had an issue of blood twelve years,

mkjv@Mark:5:26 @ and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and had not been bettered any, but rather came to worse,

mkjv@Mark:5:27 @ having heard about Jesus, she came in the press behind and touched His garment.

mkjv@Mark:5:28 @ For she said, If I may but touch only His clothes, I will be cured.

mkjv@Mark:5:29 @ And instantly the fountain of her blood dried up. And she felt in [her] body that she was healed of that plague.

mkjv@Mark:5:30 @ And knowing instantly within Himself that power had gone out of Him, Jesus turned Himself around in the press and said, Who touched My clothes?

mkjv@Mark:5:31 @ And His disciples said to Him, You see the crowd pressing on You, and do You say, Who touched Me?

mkjv@Mark:5:32 @ And He looked around to see her who had done this thing.

mkjv@Mark:5:33 @ But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had been done in her, came and fell down before Him and told Him all the truth.

mkjv@Mark:5:34 @ And He said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be whole from your plague.

mkjv@Mark:5:35 @ While He still spoke, they came from the synagogue ruler's house, saying, Your daughter is dead; why do you still trouble the Teacher?

mkjv@Mark:5:36 @ But hearing the word spoken, Jesus said to the synagogue ruler, Do not be afraid, only believe.

mkjv@Mark:5:37 @ And He allowed no one to follow Him, except Peter and James and John, the brother of James.

mkjv@Mark:5:38 @ And He came to the synagogue ruler's and saw a tumult, and weeping and much wailing.

mkjv@Mark:5:39 @ And going in He said to them, Why do you make a tumult and weep? The girl is not dead, but sleeps.

mkjv@Mark:5:40 @ And they laughed at Him. But when He had put [them] all out, He took the father and the mother of the child, and those with Him, and went in where the child was lying.

mkjv@Mark:5:41 @ And He took the child's hand and said to her, Talitha koumi; (which interpreted is, Little girl, I say to you, arise!)

mkjv@Mark:5:42 @ And instantly the little girl arose and walked (for she was twelve years [old] ). And they were astonished with a great astonishment.

mkjv@Mark:5:43 @ And He strictly warned them that no one should know this. And He said to give her something to eat.

mkjv@Mark:6:1 @ And He went out from there and came into His native-place. And His disciples followed Him.

mkjv@Mark:6:2 @ And when the sabbath day had come, He began to teach in the synagogue. And many hearing [Him], were astonished, saying, Where does this one get these things? And what wisdom [is] this which is given to him, that even such mighty works are done by his hands?

mkjv@Mark:6:3 @ Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at Him.

mkjv@Mark:6:4 @ But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor, except in his native-place, and among his own kin, and in his own house.

mkjv@Mark:6:5 @ And He could do no work of power there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick ones, He healed [them].

mkjv@Mark:6:6 @ And He marveled because of their unbelief. And He went around the villages, in [a] circuit, teaching.

mkjv@Mark:6:7 @ And He called the Twelve and began to send them out by two and two. And He gave them authority over unclean spirits,

mkjv@Mark:6:8 @ and commanded them that they take nothing in [the] way, except only a staff; no bag, no bread, no copper in the belt,

mkjv@Mark:6:9 @ but tying on sandals, and not to put on two tunics.

mkjv@Mark:6:10 @ And He said to them, Wherever you enter into a house, abide there until you depart from [that place].

mkjv@Mark:6:11 @ And whoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when you depart from there, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Truly I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.

mkjv@Mark:6:12 @ And they went out and proclaimed that [men] should repent.

mkjv@Mark:6:13 @ And they cast out many demons, and anointed many who were sick with oil, and healed [them].

mkjv@Mark:6:14 @ And king Herod heard [of Him] (for His name had become well-known,) and he said that John the Baptist had been raised from the dead, and therefore mighty works operate in him.

mkjv@Mark:6:15 @ Others said [that it was] Elijah. And others said that he is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.

mkjv@Mark:6:16 @ But hearing Herod said, It is John, whom I beheaded. He has risen from the dead!

mkjv@Mark:6:17 @ For Herod himself had sent out and laid hold on John and had bound him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife. For he had married her,

mkjv@Mark:6:18 @ and John had said to Herod, It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife.

mkjv@Mark:6:19 @ And Herodias held it against him, and desired to kill him, but she could not.

mkjv@Mark:6:20 @ For Herod feared John, knowing that [he was] a just and holy man. And he kept him safe. And when he heard him, he did many things and heard him gladly.

mkjv@Mark:6:21 @ And a convenient day came, when Herod made a supper to great men on his birthday, and to the chiliarchs, and to the first ones of Galilee.

mkjv@Mark:6:22 @ And when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced and pleased Herod, and those who reclined with [him], the king said to the girl, Ask me whatever you desire from me, and I will give [it] to you.

mkjv@Mark:6:23 @ And he swore to her, Whatever you shall ask from me, I will give [it] to you, to the half of my kingdom.

mkjv@Mark:6:24 @ And she went out and said to her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.

mkjv@Mark:6:25 @ And immediately going in with haste to the king, she asked, saying, I desire that you give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.

mkjv@Mark:6:26 @ And becoming deeply grieved, the king, because of his oath, and those reclining together, he did not wish to reject her.

mkjv@Mark:6:27 @ And immediately the king sent an executioner and commanded his head to be brought. And he went and beheaded him in the prison,

mkjv@Mark:6:28 @ and brought his head in a platter and gave it to the girl. And the girl gave it to her mother.

mkjv@Mark:6:29 @ And when his disciples heard, they came and took up his corpse and laid it in a tomb.

mkjv@Mark:6:30 @ And the apostles gathered themselves to Jesus and told Him all things, both what they had done and what they had taught.

mkjv@Mark:6:31 @ And He said to them, Come aside into a deserted place and rest a little. For there were many coming and going, and they had no opportunity even to eat.

mkjv@Mark:6:32 @ And they departed by boat into a deserted place.

mkjv@Mark:6:33 @ And the crowds saw them leaving, and many knew Him. And [they] ran together on foot there, out of the cities. And they went before them and came together to Him.

mkjv@Mark:6:34 @ And going out Jesus saw a large crowd. And He was moved with compassion toward them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And He began to teach them many things.

mkjv@Mark:6:35 @ And [it] now becoming a late hour, His disciples came to Him and said, This is a deserted place and [it is] now a late hour.

mkjv@Mark:6:36 @ Send them away so that they may go to the surrounding fields and villages and buy loaves for themselves. For they have nothing to eat.

mkjv@Mark:6:37 @ He answered and said to them, You give them [food] to eat. And they said to Him, Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii of loaves and give them to eat?

mkjv@Mark:6:38 @ He said to them, How many loaves do you have? Go and see. And when they knew, they said, Five, and two fish.

mkjv@Mark:6:39 @ And He commanded them all to recline, group [by] group, on the green grass.

mkjv@Mark:6:40 @ And they reclined group [by] group, by hundred and by fifty.

mkjv@Mark:6:41 @ And taking the five loaves and the two fish, He looked up to Heaven, He blessed and broke the loaves, and gave [them] to His disciples to set before them. And He divided the two fish to all.

mkjv@Mark:6:42 @ And they all ate and were filled.

mkjv@Mark:6:43 @ And they took up twelve hand baskets full [of] fragments, also from the fish.

mkjv@Mark:6:44 @ And those eating the loaves were about five thousand men.

mkjv@Mark:6:45 @ And immediately He constrained His disciples to get into the boat and to go before to the other side, to Bethsaida, while He sent away the crowd.

mkjv@Mark:6:46 @ And taking leave [of] them, He went away to the mountain to pray.

mkjv@Mark:6:47 @ And when evening had come, the boat was in [the] middle of the sea, and He was alone on the land.

mkjv@Mark:6:48 @ And He saw them toiling in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them. And about the fourth watch of the night He came toward them walking on the sea, and would have passed by them.

mkjv@Mark:6:49 @ But when they saw Him walking on the sea, they supposed that it was a phantom, and cried out.

mkjv@Mark:6:50 @ For they all saw Him and were troubled. And immediately He talked with them, and said, Be of good cheer. I AM! Do not be afraid.

mkjv@Mark:6:51 @ And He went up into the boat to them. And the wind was cut off. And they were very much amazed within themselves beyond measure, and marveled.

mkjv@Mark:6:52 @ For they did not understand [the miracle] of the loaves, for their hearts were hardened.

mkjv@Mark:6:53 @ And crossing over, they came into the land of Gennesaret and drew to the shore.

mkjv@Mark:6:54 @ And when they had come out of the boat, at once knowing Him,

mkjv@Mark:6:55 @ they ran all around that neighborhood, and began to carry on cots those who were sick, wherever they heard He was.

mkjv@Mark:6:56 @ And wherever He entered, into villages or cities or country, they laid the sick in the streets and begged Him if only they might touch but the fringe of His garment. And as many as touched Him were made whole.

mkjv@Mark:7:1 @ And the Pharisees and some of the scribes came together to Him, having come from Jerusalem.

mkjv@Mark:7:2 @ And when they saw some of His disciples eating loaves with unclean hands, that is with unwashed hands, they found fault.

mkjv@Mark:7:3 @ For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they immerse [their] hands with the fist, holding the tradition of the elders.

mkjv@Mark:7:4 @ And coming from the market, they do not eat without immersing, and there are many other things which they have received to hold, the dippings of cups and pots, and of copper vessels, and of tables.

mkjv@Mark:7:5 @ Then the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, Why do your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat loaves with unwashed hands?

mkjv@Mark:7:6 @ But He answered and said to them, Well has Isaiah prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honors Me with [their] lips, but their heart is far from Me.

mkjv@Mark:7:7 @ However, they worship Me in vain, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.

mkjv@Mark:7:8 @ For laying aside the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men, the dippings of pots and cups. And many other such things you do.

mkjv@Mark:7:9 @ And He said to them, Do you do well to set aside the commandment of God, so that you may keep your own tradition?

mkjv@Mark:7:10 @ For Moses said, Honor your father and your mother. And, Whoever curses father or mother, let him die the death.

mkjv@Mark:7:11 @ But you say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, Corban! (that is, A gift [to God], whatever you may profit by me)

mkjv@Mark:7:12 @ and you no longer allow him to do anything toward [his] father or mother,

mkjv@Mark:7:13 @ making the word of God of no effect through your tradition which you have delivered. And you do many such things.

mkjv@Mark:7:14 @ And calling near all the crowd, He said to them, Listen to Me, every one of you, and understand.

mkjv@Mark:7:15 @ There is nothing from outside a man which entering into him can defile [him]. But the things which come out of him, those are the ones that defile the man.

mkjv@Mark:7:16 @ If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.

mkjv@Mark:7:17 @ And when He had entered into the house away from the crowd, His disciples asked Him concerning the parable.

mkjv@Mark:7:18 @ And He said to them, Are you also without understanding? Do you not perceive that whatever enters into the man from outside cannot defile him,

mkjv@Mark:7:19 @ because it does not enter into his heart, but into the belly, and goes out into the waste-bowl, purifying all food?

mkjv@Mark:7:20 @ And He said, That which comes out of the man is what defiles the man.

mkjv@Mark:7:21 @ For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

mkjv@Mark:7:22 @ thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:

mkjv@Mark:7:23 @ All these evil things pass out from inside and defile the man.

mkjv@Mark:7:24 @ And He arose from there and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon. And He entered into a house and desired no one to know [it]. But He could not be hidden.

mkjv@Mark:7:25 @ For a woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of Him and came and fell at His feet.

mkjv@Mark:7:26 @ The woman was a Greek, a Syro-phoenician by race. And she begged Him that He would cast the demon out of her daughter.

mkjv@Mark:7:27 @ But Jesus said to her, Let the children first be filled. For it is not right to take the children's loaves and to throw [it] to the dogs.

mkjv@Mark:7:28 @ And she answered and said to Him, Yes, Lord, yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.

mkjv@Mark:7:29 @ And He said to her, For this saying go, the demon has gone out of your daughter.

mkjv@Mark:7:30 @ And when she had come to her house, she found the demon had gone out, and her daughter lay on the couch.

mkjv@Mark:7:31 @ And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, He came to the Sea of Galilee, in the midst of the borders of the Decapolis.

mkjv@Mark:7:32 @ And they brought a deaf one to Him, hardly speaking. And they begged Him to put [His] hand on him.

mkjv@Mark:7:33 @ And He took him aside from the crowd and put His fingers into his ears. And He spat and touched his tongue.

mkjv@Mark:7:34 @ And looking up to Heaven, He sighed and said to him, Ephphatha! (that is, Be opened!)

mkjv@Mark:7:35 @ And instantly his ears were opened and the bond of his tongue was loosened, and he spoke plainly.

mkjv@Mark:7:36 @ And He commanded them, that they should tell no one. But the more He commanded them, so much the more they proclaimed [it].

mkjv@Mark:7:37 @ And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, He has done all things well. He makes both the deaf to hear and the dumb to speak.

mkjv@Mark:8:1 @ In those days, the crowd being very great and having nothing to eat, Jesus called His disciples and said to them,

mkjv@Mark:8:2 @ I have compassion on the crowd because they have now been with Me three days and have nothing to eat.

mkjv@Mark:8:3 @ And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint in the way. For many of them come from afar.

mkjv@Mark:8:4 @ And His disciples answered Him, From where can a man satisfy these [with] loaves here in the wilderness?

mkjv@Mark:8:5 @ And He asked them, How many loaves do you have? And they said, Seven.

mkjv@Mark:8:6 @ And He commanded the people to recline on the ground. And He took the seven loaves and gave thanks, and He broke and gave to His disciples to set before them. And they set [them before] the people.

mkjv@Mark:8:7 @ And they had a few fish. And He blessed and commanded them to also serve these.

mkjv@Mark:8:8 @ So they ate and were filled. And [they] took up over and above seven lunch baskets [of] fragments.

mkjv@Mark:8:9 @ And they who had eaten were about four thousand. And He sent them away.

mkjv@Mark:8:10 @ And immediately He entered into a boat with His disciples and came into the region of Dalmanutha.

mkjv@Mark:8:11 @ And the Pharisees came out and began to dispute with Him, seeking a sign from Heaven from Him, tempting Him.

mkjv@Mark:8:12 @ And He sighed deeply in His spirit and said, Why does this generation seek a sign? Truly I say to you, [There shall no] sign be given to this generation.

mkjv@Mark:8:13 @ And He left them. And entering into the boat again, He departed to the other side.

mkjv@Mark:8:14 @ And [the disciples] had forgotten to take loaves, and they did not have more than one loaf in the boat with them.

mkjv@Mark:8:15 @ And He charged them, saying, Take heed! Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and [of] the leaven of Herod.

mkjv@Mark:8:16 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, [It is] because we have no loaves.

mkjv@Mark:8:17 @ And knowing [it], Jesus said to them, Why do you reason [that it is] because you have no loaves? Do you not yet perceive nor understand? Have you still hardened your heart?

mkjv@Mark:8:18 @ Do you have eyes and do not see? Do you have ears and do not hear? And do you not remember?

mkjv@Mark:8:19 @ When I broke the five loaves among five thousand, how many hand baskets full of fragments did you take up? They said to Him, Twelve.

mkjv@Mark:8:20 @ And when the seven among four thousand, how many lunch baskets full of fragments did you take up? And they said, Seven.

mkjv@Mark:8:21 @ And He said to them, How do you not understand?

mkjv@Mark:8:22 @ And He came to Bethsaida. And they brought a blind man to Him and begged Him to touch him.

mkjv@Mark:8:23 @ And He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the town. And when He had spat on his eyes and had put [His] hands on him, He asked Him if he saw anything.

mkjv@Mark:8:24 @ And he looked up and said, I see men as trees, walking.

mkjv@Mark:8:25 @ And after that He put [His] hands again on his eyes and made him look up. And he was restored and saw all clearly.

mkjv@Mark:8:26 @ And He sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell [it] to any in the town.

mkjv@Mark:8:27 @ And Jesus and His disciples went out into the towns of Caesarea Philippi. And in the way He asked His disciples, saying to them, Who do men say that I am?

mkjv@Mark:8:28 @ And they answered, John the Baptist. But others [say] Elijah, and others say one of the prophets.

mkjv@Mark:8:29 @ And He said to them, But who do you say that I am? And Peter answered and said to Him, You are the Christ.

mkjv@Mark:8:30 @ And He charged them that they should tell no one of Him.

mkjv@Mark:8:31 @ And He began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

mkjv@Mark:8:32 @ And He spoke that saying openly. And Peter took Him and began to rebuke Him.

mkjv@Mark:8:33 @ But when He had turned around and looked on His disciples, He rebuked Peter, saying, Go behind Me, Satan! For you do not mind the things of God, but of the things of men.

mkjv@Mark:8:34 @ And calling near the crowd with His disciples, He said to them, Whoever will come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.

mkjv@Mark:8:35 @ For whoever will save his life shall lose it; but whoever shall lose his life for My sake and the gospel's, he shall save it.

mkjv@Mark:8:36 @ For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?

mkjv@Mark:8:37 @ Or what shall a man give in exchange [for] his soul?

mkjv@Mark:8:38 @ Therefore whoever shall be ashamed of Me and of My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of man shall also be ashamed of him when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.

mkjv@Mark:9:1 @ And He said to them, Truly I say to you that there are some of those who stand here who shall not taste of death until they see the kingdom of God come with power.

mkjv@Mark:9:2 @ And after six days Jesus took Peter and James and John and led them up into a high mountain, apart by themselves. And He was transfigured before them.

mkjv@Mark:9:3 @ And His clothing became shining, exceedingly white as snow such as no fuller on earth could whiten them.

mkjv@Mark:9:4 @ And Elijah with Moses was seen by them, and they were talking with Jesus.

mkjv@Mark:9:5 @ And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good [for] us to be here. And let us make three tabernacles, one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

mkjv@Mark:9:6 @ For he did not know what to say, for they were very much afraid.

mkjv@Mark:9:7 @ And there was a cloud that overshadowed them. And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is My beloved Son. Hear Him.

mkjv@Mark:9:8 @ And suddenly, looking around, they did not see anyone any more, except Jesus alone with themselves.

mkjv@Mark:9:9 @ And as they came down from the mountain, He commanded them that they should tell no one the things that they had seen until the Son of man had risen from [the] dead.

mkjv@Mark:9:10 @ And they kept that saying within themselves, debating with one another what the rising from [the] dead [is].

mkjv@Mark:9:11 @ And they asked Him, saying, Why do the scribes say that Elijah must first come?

mkjv@Mark:9:12 @ And He answered and told them, Elijah truly does come first and restores all things. And how has it been written of the Son of man that He should suffer many things and be despised?

mkjv@Mark:9:13 @ But I say to you that Elijah has indeed come, and they have done to him whatever they desired, as it is written of him.

mkjv@Mark:9:14 @ And coming to [His] disciples, He saw a great crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them.

mkjv@Mark:9:15 @ And immediately all the crowd, seeing Him, were greatly amazed, and they were running to [Him] to greet Him.

mkjv@Mark:9:16 @ And He asked the scribes, What are you discussing with them?

mkjv@Mark:9:17 @ And one of the crowd answered and said, Teacher, I have brought my son who has a dumb spirit to You.

mkjv@Mark:9:18 @ And wherever he seizes him, he dashes him. And he foams and gnashes his teeth and pines away. And I spoke to Your disciples that they should cast him out, and they could not.

mkjv@Mark:9:19 @ He answered him and said, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to Me!

mkjv@Mark:9:20 @ And they brought him to Him. And when he saw Him, the spirit immediately convulsed him. And he fell on the ground and wallowed, foaming.

mkjv@Mark:9:21 @ And He asked his father, How long ago has it been since this came to him? And he said, From childhood.

mkjv@Mark:9:22 @ And oftentimes it has cast him into the fire and into the waters to destroy him. But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.

mkjv@Mark:9:23 @ Jesus said to him, If you can believe, all things [are] possible to him who believes.

mkjv@Mark:9:24 @ And immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief.

mkjv@Mark:9:25 @ And seeing that a crowd is running together, Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, Dumb and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter no more into him!

mkjv@Mark:9:26 @ And [the spirit] cried out, throwing him into convulsions, and came out of him. And he was like one dead, so that many said, He is dead.

mkjv@Mark:9:27 @ But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose.

mkjv@Mark:9:28 @ And He entering into a house, His disciples asked Him privately, [Why] could we not cast him out?

mkjv@Mark:9:29 @ And He said to them, This kind can come out by nothing except by prayer and fasting.

mkjv@Mark:9:30 @ And going out from there, they passed through Galilee. And He desired that no one should know.

mkjv@Mark:9:31 @ For He taught His disciples and said to them, The Son of man is delivered into [the] hands of men, and they shall kill him. And after He is killed, He shall rise the third day.

mkjv@Mark:9:32 @ But they did not understand that saying and were afraid to ask Him.

mkjv@Mark:9:33 @ And He came to Capernaum. And being in the house, He asked them, What was it that you disputed among yourselves in the way?

mkjv@Mark:9:34 @ But they were silent. For in the way they had disputed among themselves who [was] the greatest.

mkjv@Mark:9:35 @ And He sat down and called the Twelve and said to them, If anyone desires to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all.

mkjv@Mark:9:36 @ And He took a child, and embraced it, and set him in their midst. And He said to them,

mkjv@Mark:9:37 @ Whoever receives one of such children on My name receives Me. And whoever receives Me does not [only] receives Me, but Him who sent Me.

mkjv@Mark:9:38 @ And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out demons in Your name, and he does not follow us. And we forbade him, because he does not follow us.

mkjv@Mark:9:39 @ But Jesus said, Do not forbid him. For there is no one who shall do a work of power in My name who can lightly speak evil of Me.

mkjv@Mark:9:40 @ For he who is not against us is for us.

mkjv@Mark:9:41 @ For whoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you [belong] to Christ, truly I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.

mkjv@Mark:9:42 @ And whoever shall offend one of [these] little ones who believe in Me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged around his neck and he were cast into the sea.

mkjv@Mark:9:43 @ And if your hand offends you, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed than to have two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched

mkjv@Mark:9:44 @ where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.

mkjv@Mark:9:45 @ And if your foot offends you, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame than to have two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched

mkjv@Mark:9:46 @ where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.

mkjv@Mark:9:47 @ And if your eye offends you, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes to be cast into hell fire

mkjv@Mark:9:48 @ where their worm dies not, and the fire is not quenched.

mkjv@Mark:9:49 @ For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.

mkjv@Mark:9:50 @ Salt [is] good; but if the salt becomes saltless, with what will you season? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another.

mkjv@Mark:10:1 @ And He arose from there. And He came into the borders of Judea by the other side of the Jordan. And again a crowd came together to Him. And as was His custom, He taught them again.

mkjv@Mark:10:2 @ And tempting Him, the Pharisees came to Him and asked Him, Is it lawful for a man to put away [his] wife?

mkjv@Mark:10:3 @ And He answered and said to them, What did Moses command you?

mkjv@Mark:10:4 @ And they said, Moses allowed a bill of divorce to be written, and to put [her] away.

mkjv@Mark:10:5 @ And Jesus answered and said to them, He wrote you this precept because of the hardness of your hearts.

mkjv@Mark:10:6 @ But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.

mkjv@Mark:10:7 @ For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother and shall cleave to his wife.

mkjv@Mark:10:8 @ And the two of them shall be one flesh. So then they are no longer two, but one flesh.

mkjv@Mark:10:9 @ Therefore what God has joined together, let not man put apart.

mkjv@Mark:10:10 @ And in the house His disciples asked Him again about the same.

mkjv@Mark:10:11 @ And He said to them, Whoever shall put away his wife and marries another commits adultery against her.

mkjv@Mark:10:12 @ And if a woman shall put away her husband and marries to another, she commits adultery.

mkjv@Mark:10:13 @ And they brought children to Him, so that He should touch them. And [His] disciples rebuked those bringing [them].

mkjv@Mark:10:14 @ But when Jesus saw, He was much displeased and said to them, Allow the little children to come to Me and do not hinder [them]. For of such is the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Mark:10:15 @ Truly I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter into it.

mkjv@Mark:10:16 @ And taking them up in [His] arms, He put [His] hands on them and blessed them.

mkjv@Mark:10:17 @ And when He had gone out into the way, one came running up and kneeled to Him, and asked Him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?

mkjv@Mark:10:18 @ And Jesus said to him, Why do you call Me good? No one [is] good except one, God.

mkjv@Mark:10:19 @ You know the commandments: Do not commit adultery, do not kill, do not steal, do not bear false witness, do not defraud, honor your father and your mother.

mkjv@Mark:10:20 @ And he answered and said to Him, Teacher, all these I have observed from my youth.

mkjv@Mark:10:21 @ Then Jesus, beholding him, loved him and said to him, One [thing] you lack. Go, sell whatever you have and give it to the poor, and you shall have treasure in Heaven. And come, take up the cross and follow Me.

mkjv@Mark:10:22 @ And he was sad at that saying and went away grieved, for he had great possessions.

mkjv@Mark:10:23 @ And Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, How hardly those having riches will enter into the kingdom of God!

mkjv@Mark:10:24 @ And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answering again said to them, Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!

mkjv@Mark:10:25 @ It is easier [for] a camel to go through the eye of a needle than [for] a rich one to enter into the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Mark:10:26 @ And they were astonished beyond measure, saying to themselves, And who can be saved?

mkjv@Mark:10:27 @ And Jesus looking on them said, With men [it is] impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.

mkjv@Mark:10:28 @ Then Peter began to say to Him, Lo, we have left all and have followed You.

mkjv@Mark:10:29 @ And Jesus answered and said, Truly I say to you, There is no man that has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands for my sake and the gospel's sake,

mkjv@Mark:10:30 @ but he shall receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands with persecutions, and in the world to come, eternal life.

mkjv@Mark:10:31 @ But many [that are] first shall be last; and the last [shall be] first.

mkjv@Mark:10:32 @ And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem. And Jesus went before them. And they were amazed, and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took the Twelve again and began to tell them what would happen to Him,

mkjv@Mark:10:33 @ [saying], Behold, we go up to Jerusalem. And the Son of man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes. And they will condemn Him to death and will deliver Him to the nations.

mkjv@Mark:10:34 @ And they will mock Him, and will scourge Him, and will spit on Him, and will kill Him. And the third day He shall rise again.

mkjv@Mark:10:35 @ And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came up to Him, saying, Master, we desire that You should do for us whatever we shall ask.

mkjv@Mark:10:36 @ And He said to them, What do you desire that I should do for you?

mkjv@Mark:10:37 @ They said to Him, Grant to us that we may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on Your left hand, in Your glory.

mkjv@Mark:10:38 @ But Jesus said to them, You do not know what you ask. Can you drink of the cup that I drink of, and be baptized [with] the baptism that I am baptized [with]?

mkjv@Mark:10:39 @ And they said to Him, We can. And Jesus said to them, You shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of, and [with] the baptism that I am baptized [with] you shall be baptized.

mkjv@Mark:10:40 @ But to sit on My right [hand] and on My left is not Mine to give, but [to those] for whom it is prepared.

mkjv@Mark:10:41 @ And when the ten heard, they began to be indignant with James and John.

mkjv@Mark:10:42 @ But Jesus called them and said to them, You know that they who are accounted rulers over the nations exercise lordship over them. And their great ones exercise authority on them.

mkjv@Mark:10:43 @ But it shall not be so among you. But whoever desires to be great among you, let him be your servant.

mkjv@Mark:10:44 @ And whoever of you desires to become first, [he] shall be servant of all.

mkjv@Mark:10:45 @ For even the Son of man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life [as] a ransom for many.

mkjv@Mark:10:46 @ And they came to Jericho. And as He with His disciples and a large crowd went out of Jericho, blind Bartimeus, the son of Timeus, was sitting by the side of the highway, begging.

mkjv@Mark:10:47 @ And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me!

mkjv@Mark:10:48 @ And many warned him that he should be quiet, but he cried a great deal more, Son of David, have mercy on me!

mkjv@Mark:10:49 @ And Jesus stood still and commanded him to be called. And they called the blind [man], saying to him, Be of good comfort; rise up, He is calling you.

mkjv@Mark:10:50 @ And casting away his garment, he rose up and came to Jesus.

mkjv@Mark:10:51 @ And answering Jesus said to him, What do you desire that I should do to you? The blind [man] said to Him, My Lord, that I may see again.

mkjv@Mark:10:52 @ And Jesus said to him, Go, your faith has healed you. And instantly he saw again, and he followed Jesus in the way.

mkjv@Mark:11:1 @ And when they drew near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, He sent out two of His disciples.

mkjv@Mark:11:2 @ And He said to them, Go into the village over across from you. And as soon as you have entered into it, you will find a colt tied, on which no one of men has ever sat. Untie it and bring [it].

mkjv@Mark:11:3 @ And if anyone says to you, Why do you do this? Say that the Lord has need of him, and immediately he will send him here.

mkjv@Mark:11:4 @ And they went, and they found the colt tied by the door outside, in a place where two ways met. And they untied him.

mkjv@Mark:11:5 @ And certain of those who stood there said to them, What are you doing, untying the colt?

mkjv@Mark:11:6 @ And they said to them even as Jesus had commanded. And they let them go.

mkjv@Mark:11:7 @ And they brought the colt to Jesus, and they threw their garments on it. And He sat on it.

mkjv@Mark:11:8 @ And many spread their garments in the way, and others cut down branches off the trees and scattered [them] in the way.

mkjv@Mark:11:9 @ And those going before, and those following, cried out, saying, Hosanna! Blessed [is] He who comes in [the] name of [the] Lord!

mkjv@Mark:11:10 @ Blessed [is] the kingdom of our father David, who comes in [the] name of [the] Lord! Hosanna in the highest!

mkjv@Mark:11:11 @ And Jesus entered into Jerusalem and into the temple. And when He had looked around on all things, the hour already being late, He went out to Bethany with the Twelve.

mkjv@Mark:11:12 @ And on the next day, they going out of Bethany, He was hungry.

mkjv@Mark:11:13 @ And seeing a fig-tree with leaves afar off, He went [to it], if perhaps He might find anything on it. And when He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not [the] season of figs.

mkjv@Mark:11:14 @ And Jesus answered and said to it, No one shall eat fruit of you forever. And His disciples heard.

mkjv@Mark:11:15 @ And they came to Jerusalem. And entering into the temple, Jesus began to cast out those who bought and sold in the temple. And He overthrew the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold doves.

mkjv@Mark:11:16 @ And [He] would not allow any to carry a vessel through the temple.

mkjv@Mark:11:17 @ And [He] taught, saying to them, Is it not written, My house shall be called the house of prayer for all nations? But you have made it a den of thieves.

mkjv@Mark:11:18 @ And the scribes and the chief priests heard. And they sought how they might destroy Him. For they feared Him, because all the people were astonished at His doctrine.

mkjv@Mark:11:19 @ And when evening came, He went out of the city.

mkjv@Mark:11:20 @ And passing on early, they saw the fig-tree dried up from [the] roots.

mkjv@Mark:11:21 @ And Peter, remembering, said to Him, Rabbi, behold, the fig tree which You cursed has withered away.

mkjv@Mark:11:22 @ And answering Jesus said to them, Have faith of God.

mkjv@Mark:11:23 @ For truly I say to you that whoever shall say to this mountain, Be moved and be cast into the sea, and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that what he said shall occur, he shall have whatever he said.

mkjv@Mark:11:24 @ Therefore I say to you, All things, whatever you ask, praying, believe that you shall receive [them], and it will be to you.

mkjv@Mark:11:25 @ And when you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive [it] so that also your Father in Heaven may forgive you your trespasses.

mkjv@Mark:11:26 @ But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in Heaven forgive your trespasses.

mkjv@Mark:11:27 @ And they came again to Jerusalem. And as He was walking in the temple, the chief priests and the scribes and the elders came to Him

mkjv@Mark:11:28 @ and said to Him, By what authority do you do these things? And who gave you this authority to do these things?

mkjv@Mark:11:29 @ And Jesus answered and said to them, I will also ask of you one thing, and answer Me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

mkjv@Mark:11:30 @ The baptism of John, was [it] from Heaven, or from men? Answer Me.

mkjv@Mark:11:31 @ And they reasoned within themselves, saying, If we shall say, From Heaven, he will say, Why then did you not believe him?

mkjv@Mark:11:32 @ But if we shall say, From men, they feared the people, for all held John to be a prophet indeed.

mkjv@Mark:11:33 @ And they answered and said to Jesus, We cannot tell. And answering Jesus said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

mkjv@Mark:12:1 @ And He began to speak to them by parables. A man planted a vineyard, and set a fence about [it], and dug a wine-vat, and built a tower, and [he] let it out to vinedressers, and went away.

mkjv@Mark:12:2 @ And at the season he sent a servant to the vinedressers, so that he might receive from the vinedressers the fruit of the vineyard.

mkjv@Mark:12:3 @ And taking [him], they beat him and sent [him] away empty.

mkjv@Mark:12:4 @ And again he sent to them another servant. And stoning that one, they struck [him] in the head, and sent [him] away, insulting him.

mkjv@Mark:12:5 @ And again he sent another. And they killed him, and many others, beating some and killing some.

mkjv@Mark:12:6 @ Therefore, still having one son, his own beloved, he also sent him to them last of all, saying, They will respect my son.

mkjv@Mark:12:7 @ But those vinedressers said among themselves, This is the heir! Come, let us kill him and the inheritance shall be ours.

mkjv@Mark:12:8 @ And they took him and killed [him] and cast [him] out of the vineyard.

mkjv@Mark:12:9 @ Therefore what will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the vinedressers and will give the vineyard to others.

mkjv@Mark:12:10 @ And have you not read this scripture The] Stone which the builders rejected has become the Head of [the] corner:

mkjv@Mark:12:11 @ this was from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes?

mkjv@Mark:12:12 @ And they sought to seize him, but feared the crowd. For they knew that He spoke the parable against them. And leaving Him, they went away.

mkjv@Mark:12:13 @ And they sent certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians to Him, to catch Him in [His] words.

mkjv@Mark:12:14 @ And coming, they said to Him, Teacher, we know that you are true and you care about no one. For you do not look to [the] face of men, but teach the way of God [in] truth. Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

mkjv@Mark:12:15 @ Shall we give, or shall we not give? But knowing their hypocrisy, He said to them, Why do you tempt Me? Bring me a denarius so that I may see.

mkjv@Mark:12:16 @ And they brought [it]. And He said to them, Whose image and inscription is this? And they said to Him, Caesar's.

mkjv@Mark:12:17 @ And answering Jesus said to them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at Him.

mkjv@Mark:12:18 @ Then the Sadducees came to Him, who say there is no resurrection. And they asked Him, saying,

mkjv@Mark:12:19 @ Teacher, Moses wrote to us, If a man's brother die and leaves [his] wife, and leaves no children, his brother should take his wife and raise up seed to his brother.

mkjv@Mark:12:20 @ And there were seven brothers. And the first took a wife, and dying left no seed.

mkjv@Mark:12:21 @ And the second took her, and died; neither did he leave any seed. And the third likewise.

mkjv@Mark:12:22 @ And the seven had her, and left no seed. Last of all the woman also died.

mkjv@Mark:12:23 @ In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife will she be? For the seven had her as a wife.

mkjv@Mark:12:24 @ And answering Jesus said to them, Do you not err because of this, not knowing Scriptures, nor the power of God?

mkjv@Mark:12:25 @ For when they shall rise from [the] dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but they are as the angels in Heaven.

mkjv@Mark:12:26 @ And as regards the dead, that they rise, have you not read in the book of Moses how God spoke to him in the Bush, saying, I [am] the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob?

mkjv@Mark:12:27 @ He is not the God of [the] dead, but the God of [the] living. Therefore you greatly err.

mkjv@Mark:12:28 @ And coming up one of the scribes heard them reasoning, knowing that He had answered them well, he asked Him, Which is [the] first commandment of all?

mkjv@Mark:12:29 @ And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, O Israel, [the] Lord our God is one Lord;

mkjv@Mark:12:30 @ and you shall love [the] Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength. This [is] the first commandment.

mkjv@Mark:12:31 @ And [the] second [is] like this: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.

mkjv@Mark:12:32 @ And the scribe said to Him, Right, Teacher, according to truth You have spoken, that God is one, and there is no other besides Him.

mkjv@Mark:12:33 @ And to love Him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love the neighbor as himself, is more than all the burnt offerings and sacrifices.

mkjv@Mark:12:34 @ And seeing that he had answered intelligently, Jesus said to him, You are not far from the kingdom of God. And no one dared to question Him any more.

mkjv@Mark:12:35 @ And answering, teaching in the temple, Jesus said, How do the scribes say that Christ is the Son of David?

mkjv@Mark:12:36 @ For David himself said by the Holy Spirit: The LORD said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand until I place Your enemies as Your footstool.

mkjv@Mark:12:37 @ David therefore himself calls Him Lord, and why [then] is He his son? And the great crowd heard Him gladly.

mkjv@Mark:12:38 @ And He said to them in His teaching, Beware of the scribes, who love to walk about in robes, and [love] greetings in the markets,

mkjv@Mark:12:39 @ and the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost places at feasts

mkjv@Mark:12:40 @ who devour widows' houses, and as a pretense make long prayers. These shall receive greater condemnation.

mkjv@Mark:12:41 @ And sitting down opposite the treasury, Jesus watched how the people threw copper coins into the treasury. And many rich ones threw in much.

mkjv@Mark:12:42 @ And a certain poor widow came, and she threw in two lepta, which is a kodrantes.

mkjv@Mark:12:43 @ And He called His disciples and said to them, Truly I say to you that this poor widow has cast [in] more than all those who have cast into the treasury.

mkjv@Mark:12:44 @ For all cast in from their abundance. But she, out of her poverty, has cast [in] all that she had, all her livelihood.

mkjv@Mark:13:1 @ And as He went out of the temple, one of His disciples said to Him, Master, see! What stones and what buildings!

mkjv@Mark:13:2 @ And answering Jesus said to him, Do you see these great buildings? There shall not be one stone left on another that shall not be thrown down.

mkjv@Mark:13:3 @ And [as] He sat on the Mount of Olives, across from the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked Him privately,

mkjv@Mark:13:4 @ Tell us, When shall all these things be? And what [shall be] the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?

mkjv@Mark:13:5 @ And Jesus answering them began to say, Beware that no one deceive you.

mkjv@Mark:13:6 @ For many shall come in My name, saying, I AM, and shall deceive many.

mkjv@Mark:13:7 @ And when you shall hear [of] wars and rumors of wars, do not be troubled. For it must happen, but the end [shall] not [be] yet.

mkjv@Mark:13:8 @ For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there shall be earthquakes in different places, and there shall be famines and troubles. These things [are] the beginnings of sorrows.

mkjv@Mark:13:9 @ But take heed to yourselves. For they shall deliver you up to sanhedrins, and in the synagogues you shall be beaten. And you shall be brought before rulers and kings for My sake, for a testimony against them.

mkjv@Mark:13:10 @ And the gospel must first be proclaimed to all nations.

mkjv@Mark:13:11 @ But whenever they lead [you] away and deliver [you] up, take no thought beforehand what you should speak or think. But speak whatever shall be given to you in that hour. For it is not you who speaks, but the Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Mark:13:12 @ And a brother will betray a brother to death, and a father his son. And children will rise up against [their] parents and will cause them to be put to death.

mkjv@Mark:13:13 @ And you will be hated by all for My name's sake, but he enduring to the end, that [one] will be kept safe.

mkjv@Mark:13:14 @ But when you see the abomination of desolation, that spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not (let him who reads understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

mkjv@Mark:13:15 @ And let him who is on the housetop not go down into the house, nor enter to take anything out of his house.

mkjv@Mark:13:16 @ And let him who is in the field not turn back again in order to take up his garment.

mkjv@Mark:13:17 @ But woe to those with [babe] in womb, and to those who give suck in those days!

mkjv@Mark:13:18 @ And pray that your flight is not in the winter.

mkjv@Mark:13:19 @ For [in] those days shall be affliction, such as has not been from [the] beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never [shall] be.

mkjv@Mark:13:20 @ And unless the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh would be saved. But for the elect's sake, whom He has chosen, He has shortened the days.

mkjv@Mark:13:21 @ And then if anyone shall say to you, Lo, here [is] Christ! Or, lo, there! Do not believe him.

mkjv@Mark:13:22 @ For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will give miraculous] signs and wonders in order to seduce, if possible, even the elect.

mkjv@Mark:13:23 @ But take heed; behold, I have told you all things beforehand.

mkjv@Mark:13:24 @ But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,

mkjv@Mark:13:25 @ and the stars of Heaven shall fall, and the powers in the heavens shall be shaken.

mkjv@Mark:13:26 @ And then they will see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

mkjv@Mark:13:27 @ And then He shall send His angels and shall gather His elect from the four winds, from [the] end of [the] earth to [the] end of heaven.

mkjv@Mark:13:28 @ And learn the parable of the fig-tree: when her branch is still tender and puts out leaves, you know that summer is near.

mkjv@Mark:13:29 @ So you also, when you see these things happening, you know that it is near, at [the] doors.

mkjv@Mark:13:30 @ Truly I say to you that this generation shall not pass away until all these things occur.

mkjv@Mark:13:31 @ Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away.

mkjv@Mark:13:32 @ But of that day and hour no one knows, no, not the angels in Heaven, nor the Son, but the Father.

mkjv@Mark:13:33 @ Take heed, watch and pray, for you do not know when the time is.

mkjv@Mark:13:34 @ As a man going away, leaving his house, and giving authority to his servants, and each man's work to him, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch.

mkjv@Mark:13:35 @ Then you watch, for you do not know when the lord of the house is coming, [at] evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrowing, or early;

mkjv@Mark:13:36 @ lest he come suddenly [and] find you sleeping.

mkjv@Mark:13:37 @ And what I say to you, I say to all. Watch.

mkjv@Mark:14:1 @ And after two days it was the Passover and [the Feast of] Unleavened [Bread. And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take Him by craft and kill [Him.

mkjv@Mark:14:2 @ But they said, Not during the Feast, lest there be an uproar of the people.

mkjv@Mark:14:3 @ And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as He reclined, a woman came with an alabaster vial of pure, costly ointment of spikenard. And she broke the vial and poured [it] on His head.

mkjv@Mark:14:4 @ And some were indignant to themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?

mkjv@Mark:14:5 @ For it might have been sold [for] more than three hundred denarii, and be given to the poor. And they were incensed with her.

mkjv@Mark:14:6 @ And Jesus said, Let her alone! Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work towards Me.

mkjv@Mark:14:7 @ For you have the poor with you always, and whenever you desire you may do them good. But you do not have Me always.

mkjv@Mark:14:8 @ She has done what she could. She has come beforehand to anoint My body for the burying.

mkjv@Mark:14:9 @ Truly I say to you, Wherever this gospel shall be proclaimed in all the world, [this] also that she has done will be spoken of for a memorial of her.

mkjv@Mark:14:10 @ And Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests in order to betray Him to them.

mkjv@Mark:14:11 @ And when they heard, they were glad and promised to give him silver. And he sought how he might conveniently betray Him.

mkjv@Mark:14:12 @ And the first day of Unleavened [Bread], when they killed the passover, His disciples said to Him, Where do You desire that we go and prepare that You may eat the passover?

mkjv@Mark:14:13 @ And He sent out two of His disciples and said to them, Go into the city, and there you shall meet a man bearing a pitcher of water. Follow him.

mkjv@Mark:14:14 @ And wherever he may go in, you say to the housemaster, The Teacher says, Where is the guest room where I shall eat the passover with My disciples?

mkjv@Mark:14:15 @ And he will show you a large upper room, furnished [and] prepared. Prepare there for us.

mkjv@Mark:14:16 @ And His disciples went out and came into the city and found [it] as He had said to them. And they made the passover ready.

mkjv@Mark:14:17 @ And in the evening He came with the Twelve.

mkjv@Mark:14:18 @ And as they reclined and ate, Jesus said, Truly I say to you, One of you will betray Me, the [one] eating with Me.

mkjv@Mark:14:19 @ And they began to be grieved, and to say to Him one by one, Not at all I, [is it]? And another said, Not at all I, [is it]?

mkjv@Mark:14:20 @ And answering He said to them, [It is] one of the Twelve, the [one] dipping with Me in the dish.

mkjv@Mark:14:21 @ The Son of man indeed goes, as it has been written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! It were good for that man if he had never been born.

mkjv@Mark:14:22 @ And [as] they ate, Jesus took a loaf and blessed and broke [it], and He gave to them and said, Take, eat; this is My body.

mkjv@Mark:14:23 @ And taking the cup, giving thanks, He gave to them. And they all drank out of it.

mkjv@Mark:14:24 @ And He said to them, This is My blood of the New Covenant, which is poured out for many.

mkjv@Mark:14:25 @ Truly I say to you, I will no more drink of the fruit of the vine until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Mark:14:26 @ And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

mkjv@Mark:14:27 @ And Jesus said to them, All of you will be offended because of Me this night. For it is written, I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.

mkjv@Mark:14:28 @ But after I am raised, I will go before you into Galilee.

mkjv@Mark:14:29 @ But Peter said to Him, Although all shall be offended, yet I [will] not.

mkjv@Mark:14:30 @ And Jesus said to him, Truly I say to you that today, in this night, before the cock crows twice, you shall deny Me three times.

mkjv@Mark:14:31 @ But he spoke the more fervently, If I should die with You, I will not deny You in any way. Also they all said likewise.

mkjv@Mark:14:32 @ And they came to a place named Gethsemane. And He said to His disciples, Sit here while I pray.

mkjv@Mark:14:33 @ And He took with Him Peter and James and John. And He began to be greatly amazed, and to be very heavy.

mkjv@Mark:14:34 @ And He said to them, My soul is exceedingly sorrowful to death. Stay here and watch.

mkjv@Mark:14:35 @ And He went forward a little and fell on the ground. And He prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from Him.

mkjv@Mark:14:36 @ And He said, Abba, Father, all things [are] possible to You. Take away this cup from Me. Yet not what I will, but what You [will].

mkjv@Mark:14:37 @ And He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, Simon, do you sleep? Could you not watch one hour?

mkjv@Mark:14:38 @ Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. Truly the spirit [is] willing, but the flesh [is] weak.

mkjv@Mark:14:39 @ And again He went away and prayed and spoke the same words.

mkjv@Mark:14:40 @ And when He returned, He found them asleep again (for their eyes were heavy), neither did they know what to answer Him.

mkjv@Mark:14:41 @ And He came the third time and said to them, Sleep on now and take [your] rest. It is enough, the hour has come. Behold, the Son of man has been betrayed into the hands of sinners.

mkjv@Mark:14:42 @ Rise up, let us go. Lo, he who betrays Me is at hand.

mkjv@Mark:14:43 @ And immediately, while He still spoke, Judas, being one of the Twelve, came, and with him a great crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

mkjv@Mark:14:44 @ And he who betrayed Him had given them a sign, saying, Whomever I shall kiss, [it] is He. Take Him and lead [Him] away safely.

mkjv@Mark:14:45 @ And coming, at once drawing near to Him, he said, Rabbi, Rabbi! And [he] ardently kissed Him.

mkjv@Mark:14:46 @ And they laid their hands on Him and seized Him.

mkjv@Mark:14:47 @ And one of those standing by, drawing a sword, struck a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

mkjv@Mark:14:48 @ And answering Jesus said to them, Have you come out with swords and clubs, as against a robber, to take Me?

mkjv@Mark:14:49 @ I was with you daily in the temple teaching, and you did not seize Me. But the Scriptures must be fulfilled.

mkjv@Mark:14:50 @ And leaving Him, all fled.

mkjv@Mark:14:51 @ And one, a certain young man, followed Him, having thrown a linen cloth around [his] naked [body]. And the young men caught him.

mkjv@Mark:14:52 @ And he left the linen cloth and fled from them naked.

mkjv@Mark:14:53 @ And they led Jesus away to the high priest. And with him were assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.

mkjv@Mark:14:54 @ And Peter followed Him from a distance to the inside of the court of the high priest. And he sat with the servants and warmed himself at the fire.

mkjv@Mark:14:55 @ And the chief priests and all the sanhedrin sought for witness against Jesus, to put Him to death. And [they] found none.

mkjv@Mark:14:56 @ For many testified falsely against Him, but the testimonies were not identical.

mkjv@Mark:14:57 @ And certain ones rose up and bore false witness against Him, saying,

mkjv@Mark:14:58 @ We heard Him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.

mkjv@Mark:14:59 @ But neither was their testimony identical.

mkjv@Mark:14:60 @ And standing up in the middle, the high priest questioned Jesus, saying, Do you answer nothing? What [do] these witness against you?

mkjv@Mark:14:61 @ But He was silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, Are you the Christ, the son of the Blessed?

mkjv@Mark:14:62 @ And Jesus said, I AM! And you will see the Son of man sitting on the right [hand] of power and coming in the clouds of the heaven.

mkjv@Mark:14:63 @ Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, What further need do we have of witnesses?

mkjv@Mark:14:64 @ You have heard the blasphemy; what do you think? And they all condemned Him to be guilty of death.

mkjv@Mark:14:65 @ And some began to spit on Him, and to cover His face and to beat Him, and to say to Him, Prophesy! And the under-officers struck Him with slaps.

mkjv@Mark:14:66 @ And as Peter was below in the palace, one of the servant women of the high priest came.

mkjv@Mark:14:67 @ And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked on him and said, And you also were with Jesus the Nazarene.

mkjv@Mark:14:68 @ But he denied, saying, I do not know nor even understand what you are saying. And he went out into the forecourt. And a cock crowed.

mkjv@Mark:14:69 @ And a servant woman saw him again and began to say to those who stood by, This [one] is of them.

mkjv@Mark:14:70 @ And he denied it again. And a little after, those who stood by said again to Peter, Surely you are [one] of them, for you are a Galilean, and your speech agrees.

mkjv@Mark:14:71 @ But he began to curse and to swear, [saying], I do not know this man of whom you speak.

mkjv@Mark:14:72 @ And the second time a cock crowed. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus said to him, Before a cock crows twice, you will deny Me three times. And thinking on [it], he wept.

mkjv@Mark:15:1 @ And immediately in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council. And they bound Jesus and led [Him] away and delivered [Him] to Pilate.

mkjv@Mark:15:2 @ And Pilate asked Him, Are you the king of the Jews? And answering He said to him, You say [it].

mkjv@Mark:15:3 @ And the chief priests accused Him [of] many things, but He answered nothing.

mkjv@Mark:15:4 @ And Pilate asked Him again, saying, Do you answer nothing? Behold how many things they witness against you!

mkjv@Mark:15:5 @ But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate marveled.

mkjv@Mark:15:6 @ And at [that] feast he released to them one prisoner, whomever they desired.

mkjv@Mark:15:7 @ And there was [one] named Barabbas, bound with the insurgents, who had committed murder in the insurrection.

mkjv@Mark:15:8 @ And the crowd, crying aloud, began to beg [him to do] as he had always done to them.

mkjv@Mark:15:9 @ But Pilate answered them, saying, Do you desire that I release to you the King of the Jews?

mkjv@Mark:15:10 @ For he knew that the chief priests had delivered Him because of envy.

mkjv@Mark:15:11 @ But the chief priests moved the people that he should rather release Barabbas to them.

mkjv@Mark:15:12 @ And Pilate answered and said again to them, What then do you desire that I should do [to him] whom you call the King of the Jews?

mkjv@Mark:15:13 @ And they cried out again, Crucify him!

mkjv@Mark:15:14 @ Then Pilate said to them, Why? What evil has he done? And they much more cried out, Crucify him!

mkjv@Mark:15:15 @ And deciding to do the easiest [to] the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them, and having scourged [Him], delivered up Jesus to be crucified.

mkjv@Mark:15:16 @ And the soldiers led Him away inside the court, which is [the] praetorium. And they called together all the cohort.

mkjv@Mark:15:17 @ And they clothed Him with purple and plaited a crown of thorns and put it around His [head].

mkjv@Mark:15:18 @ And they began to salute Him, Hail, King of the Jews!

mkjv@Mark:15:19 @ And they struck Him on the head with a reed, and spat on Him, and placing the knees, [they] bowed to Him.

mkjv@Mark:15:20 @ And when they had mocked Him, they took the purple off Him and put His own clothes on Him and led Him out to crucify Him.

mkjv@Mark:15:21 @ And they made one who was passing by, Simon a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear His cross.

mkjv@Mark:15:22 @ And they brought Him to Golgotha Place (which translated is, Place of a Skull).

mkjv@Mark:15:23 @ And they gave Him wine mixed with myrrh to drink. But He did not take [it].

mkjv@Mark:15:24 @ And when they had crucified Him, they divided His garments, casting lots on them, as, to what [each] should take.

mkjv@Mark:15:25 @ And it was [the] third hour, and they crucified Him.

mkjv@Mark:15:26 @ And the inscription of His accusation was written over [Him], THE KING OF THE JEWS.

mkjv@Mark:15:27 @ And with Him they crucified two thieves, the one off [the] right, and one off [the] left.

mkjv@Mark:15:28 @ And the Scripture was fulfilled which said, And he was numbered with [the] lawless.

mkjv@Mark:15:29 @ And those who passed by blasphemed Him, wagging their heads and saying, Aha! You [razing] the temple and building [it] in three days,

mkjv@Mark:15:30 @ save yourself and come down from the cross!

mkjv@Mark:15:31 @ And also the chief priests mocking, with the scribes, said to one another, He saved others but he cannot save himself.

mkjv@Mark:15:32 @ Let Christ the King of Israel now come down from the cross, so that we may see and believe. And they who were crucified with Him insulted Him.

mkjv@Mark:15:33 @ And [it] being [the] sixth hour, darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour.

mkjv@Mark:15:34 @ And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? (which being translated is, My God, My God, why did You forsake Me?)

mkjv@Mark:15:35 @ And hearing, some of those standing by said, Behold, he calls Elijah.

mkjv@Mark:15:36 @ And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar and put [it] on a reed and gave [it] to him to drink. [But they said], Let alone, let us see if Elijah comes to take him down.

mkjv@Mark:15:37 @ And letting out a loud voice, Jesus expired.

mkjv@Mark:15:38 @ And the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.

mkjv@Mark:15:39 @ And when the centurion, who stood across from him, saw that He cried out so, [and] expired, he said, Truly this man was Son of God.

mkjv@Mark:15:40 @ And also women were watching from a distance, among whom also was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less, and of Joses, and Salome,

mkjv@Mark:15:41 @ (who also, when He was in Galilee, followed Him and ministered to Him), and many [other] women who came up with Him to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Mark:15:42 @ And it, becoming evening already, since it was [the] Preparation, that is, [the] day before sabbath,

mkjv@Mark:15:43 @ Joseph of Arimathea, an honorable counsellor, who also waited for the kingdom of God, came and went in boldly to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

mkjv@Mark:15:44 @ And Pilate wondered if He were already dead. And calling the centurion, he asked him whether He had died already.

mkjv@Mark:15:45 @ And when he knew [it] from the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.

mkjv@Mark:15:46 @ And he bought a linen cloth, and took Him down, and wrapped [Him] in the linen, and laid Him in a tomb which was cut out of a rock, and rolled a stone to the door of the tomb.

mkjv@Mark:15:47 @ And Mary Magdalene and Mary [the mother] of Joses saw where He was laid.

mkjv@Mark:16:1 @ And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary, [the mother] of James and Salome, had bought sweet spices so that they might come and anoint Him.

mkjv@Mark:16:2 @ And very early in the morning, the first [day] of the week, they came upon the tomb, the sun having risen.

mkjv@Mark:16:3 @ And they said among themselves, Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?

mkjv@Mark:16:4 @ And looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled back, for it was very great.

mkjv@Mark:16:5 @ And entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right, clothed [in] a long white garment. And they were frightened.

mkjv@Mark:16:6 @ And he said to them, Do not be frightened. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen, He is not here. Behold the place where they laid Him.

mkjv@Mark:16:7 @ But go tell His disciples and Peter that He goes before you into Galilee. There you will see Him, as He said to you.

mkjv@Mark:16:8 @ And they went out quickly and fled from the tomb. For they trembled and were amazed. Neither did they say anything to anyone, for they were afraid.

mkjv@Mark:16:9 @ And when [Jesus] had risen early the first [day] of the Sabbath, He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven demons.

mkjv@Mark:16:10 @ She went [and] told those who had been with Him, as they mourned and wept.

mkjv@Mark:16:11 @ And those hearing that He lives, and was seen by her, they did not believe.

mkjv@Mark:16:12 @ After that He appeared in another form to two of them, walking [and] going into the country.

mkjv@Mark:16:13 @ And they went and told [it] to the rest. Neither did they believe those.

mkjv@Mark:16:14 @ Afterward He appeared to the Eleven as they reclined. And [He] reproached their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen.

mkjv@Mark:16:15 @ And He said to them, Go into all the world, proclaim the gospel to all the creation.

mkjv@Mark:16:16 @ He who believes and is baptized will be saved, but he who does not believe will be condemned.

mkjv@Mark:16:17 @ And miraculous] signs will follow to those believing these things: in My name they will cast out demons; they will speak new tongues;

mkjv@Mark:16:18 @ they will take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them. They will lay hands on [the] sick, and they will be well.

mkjv@Mark:16:19 @ Then indeed, after speaking to them, the Lord was taken up into Heaven, and sat on [the] right hand of God.

mkjv@Mark:16:20 @ And going out, they proclaimed everywhere, the Lord working with [them] and confirming the word by miraculous] signs following. Amen.

mkjv@Luke:1:1 @ Since many took in hand to draw up an account concerning the matters which have been borne out among us,

mkjv@Luke:1:2 @ even as those who from [the] beginning delivered to us, becoming eye-witnesses and ministers of the word,

mkjv@Luke:1:3 @ it seemed good to me also, following all things accurately from the very first, to write to you in order, most excellent Theophilus,

mkjv@Luke:1:4 @ so that you might know the certainty of those things in which you have been instructed.

mkjv@Luke:1:5 @ In the days of Herod, the king of Judea, there was a certain priest named Zacharias, of [the] course of Abijah. And his wife [was] of the daughters of Aaron, and her name [was] Elizabeth.

mkjv@Luke:1:6 @ And they were both righteous before God, walking blameless in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord.

mkjv@Luke:1:7 @ And they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren. And both were advanced in their days.

mkjv@Luke:1:8 @ And it happened in his serving in the order of his course, before God,

mkjv@Luke:1:9 @ according to the custom of the priests, it was his lot to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.

mkjv@Luke:1:10 @ And all the multitude of the people were praying outside at the time of incense.

mkjv@Luke:1:11 @ And an angel [of the] Lord appeared to him as he was standing on [the] right of the altar of incense.

mkjv@Luke:1:12 @ And seeing [this], Zacharias was troubled, and fear fell on him.

mkjv@Luke:1:13 @ But the angel said to him, Do not fear, Zacharias. For your prayer is heard, and your wife Elizabeth shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name John.

mkjv@Luke:1:14 @ And you shall have joy and gladness, and many shall rejoice at his birth.

mkjv@Luke:1:15 @ For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall neither drink wine nor strong drink. And he shall be filled with [the] Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.

mkjv@Luke:1:16 @ And he shall turn many of the sons of Israel to [the] Lord their God.

mkjv@Luke:1:17 @ And he shall go before Him in [the] spirit and power of Elijah, to turn [the] hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to [the] wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:1:18 @ And Zacharias said to the angel, By what shall I know this? For I am old, and my wife is advanced in her days.

mkjv@Luke:1:19 @ And answering, the angel said to him, I am Gabriel, who stands before God. And I am sent to speak to you and to show you these glad tidings.

mkjv@Luke:1:20 @ And behold, you shall be silent and not able to speak until the day that these things shall be performed, because you did not believe my words which shall be fulfilled in their time.

mkjv@Luke:1:21 @ And the people waited for Zacharias and marveled that he stayed so long in the temple.

mkjv@Luke:1:22 @ And when he came out, he could not speak to them. And they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple. And he was making signs to them, and remained speechless.

mkjv@Luke:1:23 @ And as soon as the days of his service were accomplished, he departed to his own house.

mkjv@Luke:1:24 @ And after those days his wife Elizabeth conceived and hid herself five months, saying,

mkjv@Luke:1:25 @ So the Lord has dealt with me in the days in which He looked on [me], to take away my reproach among men.

mkjv@Luke:1:26 @ And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,

mkjv@Luke:1:27 @ to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of [the] house of David. And the virgin's name [was] Mary.

mkjv@Luke:1:28 @ And the angel came in to her and said, Hail, [one] receiving grace, the Lord [is] with you. Blessed [are] you among women.

mkjv@Luke:1:29 @ And when she saw [him], she was troubled at his saying, and considered what kind of greeting this might be.

mkjv@Luke:1:30 @ And the angel said to her, Do not fear, Mary, for you have found favor with God.

mkjv@Luke:1:31 @ And behold! You shall conceive in [your] womb and bear a son, and you shall call His name JESUS.

mkjv@Luke:1:32 @ He shall be great and shall be called the Son of [the] Highest. And the Lord God shall give Him the throne of His father David.

mkjv@Luke:1:33 @ And He shall reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there shall be no end.

mkjv@Luke:1:34 @ Then Mary said to the angel, How shall this be, since I do not know a man?

mkjv@Luke:1:35 @ And the angel answered and said to her, The Holy Spirit shall come on you, and [the] power of [the] Highest shall overshadow you. Therefore also that Holy [One] which will be born of you shall be called Son of God.

mkjv@Luke:1:36 @ And behold, your cousin Elizabeth also conceived a son in her old age. And this [is] the sixth month with her who [was] called barren.

mkjv@Luke:1:37 @ For with God nothing shall be impossible.

mkjv@Luke:1:38 @ And Mary said, Behold the servant of [the] Lord. Let it be to me according to your word. And the angel departed from her.

mkjv@Luke:1:39 @ And Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, to a city of Judah.

mkjv@Luke:1:40 @ And [she] entered into the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth.

mkjv@Luke:1:41 @ And it happened as Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit,

mkjv@Luke:1:42 @ and cried out with a loud voice and said, Blessed [are] you among women, and blessed [is] the fruit of your womb.

mkjv@Luke:1:43 @ And from where [is] this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

mkjv@Luke:1:44 @ For lo, as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

mkjv@Luke:1:45 @ And blessed [is] she who believes, for there shall be a perfecting of those things which were told her from [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:1:46 @ And Mary said, My soul magnifies the Lord,

mkjv@Luke:1:47 @ and my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.

mkjv@Luke:1:48 @ For He looked on the humiliation of His slave woman. For, behold, from now on all generations shall count me blessed.

mkjv@Luke:1:49 @ For the Mighty One has done great things for me; and holy [is] His name.

mkjv@Luke:1:50 @ And His mercy [is] on those who fear Him from generation to generation.

mkjv@Luke:1:51 @ He has worked power with His arm, He has scattered the proud in [the] imagination of their heart.

mkjv@Luke:1:52 @ He has put down rulers from [their] seats and exalted the lowly,

mkjv@Luke:1:53 @ He has filled [the] hungry with good things, and He has sent away [the] rich empty.

mkjv@Luke:1:54 @ He has helped His servant Israel, in remembrance of [His] mercy,

mkjv@Luke:1:55 @ as He spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed forever.

mkjv@Luke:1:56 @ And Mary stayed with her about three months, and returned to her own house.

mkjv@Luke:1:57 @ And the time was fulfilled to Elizabeth [for] her to bear. And she bore a son.

mkjv@Luke:1:58 @ And her neighbors and her kinsfolk heard how [the] Lord had magnified His mercy with her, and they rejoiced with her.

mkjv@Luke:1:59 @ And it happened that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child, and were calling it Zacharias, after his father's name.

mkjv@Luke:1:60 @ And his mother answered and said, No, but he shall be called John.

mkjv@Luke:1:61 @ And they said to her, There is none of your kindred that is called by this name.

mkjv@Luke:1:62 @ And they made signs to his father as to how he would have him called.

mkjv@Luke:1:63 @ And he asked for a writing tablet and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they all marveled.

mkjv@Luke:1:64 @ And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue [loosened]. And he spoke and praised God.

mkjv@Luke:1:65 @ And fear came on all who lived all around them. And all these things were talked about throughout all the hill country of Judea.

mkjv@Luke:1:66 @ And all those who heard laid [them] up in their hearts, saying, What kind of child shall this be! And the hand of [the] Lord was with him.

mkjv@Luke:1:67 @ And his father Zacharias was filled with [the] Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying,

mkjv@Luke:1:68 @ Blessed [is the] Lord, the God of Israel, for He has visited and redeemed His people

mkjv@Luke:1:69 @ and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of His servant David,

mkjv@Luke:1:70 @ as He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets from eternity;

mkjv@Luke:1:71 @ that we should be saved from our enemies and from [the] hand of all who hate us,

mkjv@Luke:1:72 @ to perform the mercy [promised] to our fathers, and to remember His holy covenant,

mkjv@Luke:1:73 @ [the] oath which He swore to our father Abraham,

mkjv@Luke:1:74 @ that He would grant to us, [that we], being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, might serve Him without fear

mkjv@Luke:1:75 @ in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our life.

mkjv@Luke:1:76 @ And you, child, will be called the prophet of [the] Highest, for you shall go before [the] face of [the] Lord to prepare His ways,

mkjv@Luke:1:77 @ to give knowledge of salvation to His people by the remission of their sins,

mkjv@Luke:1:78 @ through [the] tender mercy of our God; by which [the] Dayspring from on high has visited us,

mkjv@Luke:1:79 @ to give light to those who sit in darkness and [in] the shadow of death, to guide our feet into [the] way of peace.

mkjv@Luke:1:80 @ And the child grew and became strong in spirit and was in the deserts until [the] day of his showing to Israel.

mkjv@Luke:2:1 @ And it happened in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.

mkjv@Luke:2:2 @ (This taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

mkjv@Luke:2:3 @ And all went to be registered, each to [his] own city.

mkjv@Luke:2:4 @ And Joseph also went up from Galilee to be taxed (out of [the] city of Nazareth, into Judea, to [the] city of David which is called Bethlehem, because he was of [the] house and family line of David).

mkjv@Luke:2:5 @ And he took Mary his betrothed wife, being with child.

mkjv@Luke:2:6 @ And while they were there, the days [for] her deliverance were fulfilled.

mkjv@Luke:2:7 @ And she brought forth her son, the First-born, and wrapped Him, and laid Him in a manger-- because there was no room for them in the inn.

mkjv@Luke:2:8 @ And in the same country there were shepherds living in the field, keeping watch over their flock [by] night.

mkjv@Luke:2:9 @ And lo, the angel of [the] Lord came on them, and [the] glory of [the] Lord shone around them. And they were grievously afraid.

mkjv@Luke:2:10 @ And the angel said to them, Do not fear. For behold, I give to you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

mkjv@Luke:2:11 @ For to you is born today, in [the] city of David, a Savior, who is Christ [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:2:12 @ And this [is] a sign to you. You will find the babe wrapped, lying in a manger.

mkjv@Luke:2:13 @ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of [the] heavenly host, praising God and saying,

mkjv@Luke:2:14 @ Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

mkjv@Luke:2:15 @ And it happened as the angels departed from them into Heaven, the shepherds said to one another, Indeed, let us go to Bethlehem and see this thing which has happened, which the Lord made known to us.

mkjv@Luke:2:16 @ And hurrying they came and sought out both Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.

mkjv@Luke:2:17 @ And seeing, they publicly told about the word spoken to them concerning this Child.

mkjv@Luke:2:18 @ And all those who heard marveled about the things spoken to them by the shepherds.

mkjv@Luke:2:19 @ But Mary kept all these sayings, meditating in her heart.

mkjv@Luke:2:20 @ And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as was spoken to them.

mkjv@Luke:2:21 @ And when eight days were fulfilled to circumcise the child, His name was called JESUS, [the name] called by the angel before He was conceived in the womb.

mkjv@Luke:2:22 @ And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were fulfilled, they brought Him to Jerusalem, to present [Him] to the Lord

mkjv@Luke:2:23 @ (as it is written in [the] Law of the Lord, Every male that opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord)

mkjv@Luke:2:24 @ and to offer a sacrifice according to that said in the Law of [the] Lord, A pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons.

mkjv@Luke:2:25 @ And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name [was] Simeon. And this man [was] just and devout, waiting for [the] Consolation of Israel. And [the] Holy Spirit was on him.

mkjv@Luke:2:26 @ And it happened to him, being instructed by the Holy Spirit, he was not to see death before he would see [the] Christ of [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:2:27 @ And he came by the Spirit into the temple. And [as] the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do according to the custom of the law concerning Him,

mkjv@Luke:2:28 @ even he received Him in his arms and blessed God, and said,

mkjv@Luke:2:29 @ Lord, now You will let Your servant depart in peace, according to Your word.

mkjv@Luke:2:30 @ For my eyes have seen Your Salvation

mkjv@Luke:2:31 @ which You have prepared before [the] face of all the peoples,

mkjv@Luke:2:32 @ a light for revelation [to the] nations, and the glory of Your people Israel.

mkjv@Luke:2:33 @ And Joseph and His mother marveled at those things which were spoken by him.

mkjv@Luke:2:34 @ And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary His mother, Behold, this One is set for [the] fall and rising again of many in Israel, and for a sign spoken against

mkjv@Luke:2:35 @ (yea, a sword shall pierce through your own soul also), so that [the] thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.

mkjv@Luke:2:36 @ And there was a prophetess, Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, of [the] tribe of Asher. She was advanced in many days, and had lived with a husband seven years from her virginity.

mkjv@Luke:2:37 @ And she [was] a widow [of] eighty-four years, who did not depart from the temple, serving God with fastings and prayers night and day.

mkjv@Luke:2:38 @ And she coming in at that instant gave thanks to the Lord and spoke of Him to all those in Jerusalem eagerly expecting redemption.

mkjv@Luke:2:39 @ And when they had finished all things according to [the] Law of [the] Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.

mkjv@Luke:2:40 @ And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom. And the grace of God was on Him.

mkjv@Luke:2:41 @ And His parents went to Jerusalem every year at the Feast of the Passover.

mkjv@Luke:2:42 @ And when He was twelve years [old], they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the Feast.

mkjv@Luke:2:43 @ And fulfilling the days, as they returned, the boy Jesus stayed in Jerusalem. And Joseph and His mother did not know.

mkjv@Luke:2:44 @ But they, supposing Him to have been in the company, went a day's journey. And they looked for Him among the kinsfolk and acquaintances.

mkjv@Luke:2:45 @ And when they did not find Him, they turned back to Jerusalem, seeking Him.

mkjv@Luke:2:46 @ And it happened that after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both hearing them and questioning them.

mkjv@Luke:2:47 @ And all who heard Him were astonished at His understanding and answers.

mkjv@Luke:2:48 @ And seeing Him, they were amazed. And His mother said to Him, Child, why have you done so to us? Behold, your father and I have looked for you, greatly distressed.

mkjv@Luke:2:49 @ And He said to them, Why did you look for Me? Do you not know that I must be about My Father's [business]?

mkjv@Luke:2:50 @ And they did not understand the word which He spoke to them.

mkjv@Luke:2:51 @ And He went with them and came to Nazareth, and He was subject to them. But His mother kept all these sayings in her heart.

mkjv@Luke:2:52 @ And Jesus increased [in] wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.

mkjv@Luke:3:1 @ And in [the] fifteenth year of the government of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Iturea and the] Trachonitus country, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene--

mkjv@Luke:3:2 @ Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests-- the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

mkjv@Luke:3:3 @ And he came into all the country around Jordan, proclaiming the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins,

mkjv@Luke:3:4 @ as it is written in [the] book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying, The] voice of one crying in the wilderness, prepare the way of [the] Lord, make His paths straight.

mkjv@Luke:3:5 @ Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low, and the crooked shall be straight, and the rough ways [shall be] made smooth.

mkjv@Luke:3:6 @ And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.

mkjv@Luke:3:7 @ Then he said to the crowd that came forth to be baptized by him, O generation of vipers! Who has warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

mkjv@Luke:3:8 @ Therefore bring forth fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for [our] father. For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.

mkjv@Luke:3:9 @ And now also the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bring forth good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.

mkjv@Luke:3:10 @ And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?

mkjv@Luke:3:11 @ He answered and said to them, He who has two coats, let him give to him who has none. And he who has food, let him do likewise.

mkjv@Luke:3:12 @ And tax-collectors also came to be baptized and said to him, Teacher, what shall we do?

mkjv@Luke:3:13 @ And he said to them, Continue to do no more than that commanded to you.

mkjv@Luke:3:14 @ And the soldiers also asked of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said to them, Do not forcibly extort anyone, nor accuse [any] falsely. And be content with your wages.

mkjv@Luke:3:15 @ And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts concerning John, lest perhaps he was the Christ,

mkjv@Luke:3:16 @ John answered all, saying, I indeed baptize you with water, but He who is mightier than I comes, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to loose. He shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire,

mkjv@Luke:3:17 @ whose fan [is] in His hand, and He will thoroughly purge His floor and will gather the wheat into His storehouse. But He will burn the chaff with unquenchable fire.

mkjv@Luke:3:18 @ And then indeed exhorting many things, he proclaimed the gospel to the people.

mkjv@Luke:3:19 @ But Herod the tetrarch (being reproved by him on account of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, and for all [the] evils which Herod had done)

mkjv@Luke:3:20 @ added still this above all, that he even shut John up in prison.

mkjv@Luke:3:21 @ And it happened in the baptizing of all the people, Jesus also being baptized, and praying, and the heaven was opened.

mkjv@Luke:3:22 @ And the Holy Spirit came down in a bodily shape, like a dove on Him. And a voice came from Heaven, which said, You are My Son, the Beloved; I am delighted in You.

mkjv@Luke:3:23 @ And Jesus Himself was beginning to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) son of Joseph, [son of] of Heli,

mkjv@Luke:3:24 @ [son of] of Matthat, [son of] of Levi, [son of] of Melchi, [son of] of Janna, [son of] of Joseph,

mkjv@Luke:3:25 @ [son of] of Mattathias, [son of] of Amos, [son of] of Nahum, [son of] of Esli, [son of] of Naggai,

mkjv@Luke:3:30 @ [son of] of Simeon, [son of] of Juda, [son of] of Joseph, [son of] of Jonan, [son of] of Eliakim,

mkjv@Luke:3:31 @ [son of] of Melea, the son of Menan, [son of] of Mattatha, [son of] of Nathan, [son of] of David,

mkjv@Luke:3:32 @ [son of] of Jesse, [son of] of Obed, [son of] of Boaz, [son of] of Salma, [son of] of Nahshon,

mkjv@Luke:3:33 @ [son of] of Amminadab, [son of] of Ram, [son of] of Hezron, [son of] of Pharez, [son of] of Judah,

mkjv@Luke:3:34 @ [son of] of Jacob, [son of] of Isaac, [son of] of Abraham, [son of] of Terah, [son of] of Nahor,

mkjv@Luke:3:38 @ [son of] of Enos, [son of] of Seth, [son of] of Adam, [son of] of God.

mkjv@Luke:4:1 @ And Jesus, full of [the] Holy Spirit, returned from Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness

mkjv@Luke:4:2 @ forty days, being tempted by the Devil. And in those days He ate nothing. And they being ended, He afterward was hungry.

mkjv@Luke:4:3 @ And the Devil said to Him, If you are the Son of God, speak to this stone that it might become bread.

mkjv@Luke:4:4 @ And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written that man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.

mkjv@Luke:4:5 @ And the Devil, leading Him up into a high mountain, showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

mkjv@Luke:4:6 @ And the Devil said to Him, All this power I will give you, and the glory of them; for it has been delivered to me. And I give it to whomever I will.

mkjv@Luke:4:7 @ Therefore if you will worship me, all shall be yours.

mkjv@Luke:4:8 @ And Jesus answered and said to him, Get behind me, Satan! For it is written, You shall worship [the] Lord your God, and Him only shall you serve.

mkjv@Luke:4:9 @ And he brought Him to Jerusalem and sat Him on a pinnacle of the temple and said to Him, If you are the Son of God, cast yourself down from here.

mkjv@Luke:4:10 @ For it is written, He shall give His angels charge over You, to keep You;

mkjv@Luke:4:11 @ and in [their] hands they shall bear You up, lest at any time You dash Your foot against a stone.

mkjv@Luke:4:12 @ And Jesus answering said to him, It has been said, You shall not tempt [the] Lord your God.

mkjv@Luke:4:13 @ And when the Devil had ended every temptation, he departed from Him for a time.

mkjv@Luke:4:14 @ And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee. And a report went out throughout all the neighborhood concerning Him.

mkjv@Luke:4:15 @ And He taught in their synagogues, being glorified by all.

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

mkjv@Luke:4:17 @ And [the] book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. And unrolling the book, He found the place where it was written,

mkjv@Luke:4:18 @ The Spirit of [the] Lord [is] on Me; because of this He has anointed Me to proclaim the Gospel to [the] poor. He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim deliverance to the captives, and new sight to [the blind, to set at liberty those having been crushed,

mkjv@Luke:4:19 @ to proclaim the acceptable year of [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:4:20 @ And rolling up the book, returning [it] to the attendant, He sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on Him.

mkjv@Luke:4:21 @ And He began to say to them, Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your ears.

mkjv@Luke:4:22 @ And all bore witness to Him and wondered at the gracious words which came out of His mouth. And they said, Is this not Joseph's son?

mkjv@Luke:4:23 @ And He said to them, You will surely say this proverb to Me, Physician, heal yourself. Whatever [we] have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in your native-place.

mkjv@Luke:4:24 @ And He said, Truly I say to you, No prophet is accepted in his native-place.

mkjv@Luke:4:25 @ But I tell you truly, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land.

mkjv@Luke:4:26 @ But Elijah was not sent to any of them, except to Zarephath, [a city] of Sidon, to a woman, a widow.

mkjv@Luke:4:27 @ And many lepers were in Israel in the [time] of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian.

mkjv@Luke:4:28 @ And hearing these things, all in the synagogue were filled [with] wrath.

mkjv@Luke:4:29 @ And they rose up and thrust Him outside the city, and led Him up to the brow of the hill on which their city was built, in order to throw Him down.

mkjv@Luke:4:30 @ But passing through the midst of them, He went away.

mkjv@Luke:4:31 @ And He came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them [on] the sabbath days.

mkjv@Luke:4:32 @ And they were astonished at His doctrine, for His word was with authority.

mkjv@Luke:4:33 @ And in the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon and cried out with a loud voice,

mkjv@Luke:4:34 @ saying, Let [us] alone! What is to us and to You, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know You, who You are, the Holy One of God.

mkjv@Luke:4:35 @ And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be quiet and come out of him! And when the demon had thrown him into the midst, he came out of him, not harming him.

mkjv@Luke:4:36 @ And they were all amazed and spoke among themselves, saying, What a word [is] this! For with authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out.

mkjv@Luke:4:37 @ And a report about Him went out into every place of the neighborhood.

mkjv@Luke:4:38 @ And rising up from the synagogue, He entered into Simon's house. And Simon's wife's mother was being seized with a great fever. And they asked Him for her.

mkjv@Luke:4:39 @ And standing over her, He rebuked the fever. And it left her. And immediately she arose and served them.

mkjv@Luke:4:40 @ And the sun sinking, all, as many as had sick ones with different kinds of diseases brought them to Him. And laying hands on each of them, He healed them.

mkjv@Luke:4:41 @ And also demons came out of many, crying out and saying, You are the Christ, the Son of God! And rebuking [them], He did not allow them to speak; for they knew Him to be the Christ.

mkjv@Luke:4:42 @ And day coming on, going out, He went into a deserted place. And the crowds looked for Him and came to Him, and held Him fast, not to pass away from them.

mkjv@Luke:4:43 @ And He said to them, I must proclaim the gospel, the kingdom of God, to other cities, because I was sent on this [mission],

mkjv@Luke:4:44 @ And He proclaimed in the synagogues of Galilee.

mkjv@Luke:5:1 @ And it happened that the crowd pressed on Him to hear the word of God, He stood by the lake of Gennesaret.

mkjv@Luke:5:2 @ And He saw two boats standing by the lake. But the fishermen had left them and were washing [their] nets.

mkjv@Luke:5:3 @ And He entered into one of the boats, which was Simon's, He asked him to thrust out a little from the land. And He sat down and taught the people out of the boat.

mkjv@Luke:5:4 @ And as He stopped speaking, He said to Simon, Launch out into the deep and let your nets down for a haul.

mkjv@Luke:5:5 @ And answering, Simon said to Him, Master, we have toiled all the night and have taken nothing. Yet at Your word I will let down the net.

mkjv@Luke:5:6 @ And doing this, they enclosed a great multitude of fish. And their net was being torn.

mkjv@Luke:5:7 @ And they signaled the partners, those in the other boat, to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they were sinking.

mkjv@Luke:5:8 @ And seeing, Simon Peter fell at the knees of Jesus, saying, Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord.

mkjv@Luke:5:9 @ For he and all who were with him were astonished at the haul of fish which they had taken,

mkjv@Luke:5:10 @ and so also [were] James and John, [the] sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Do not fear, from now on you will be taking men alive.

mkjv@Luke:5:11 @ And bringing their boats onto land, forsaking all things, they followed Him.

mkjv@Luke:5:12 @ And it happened, as He was in a certain city, behold, a man full of leprosy! And seeing Jesus, he fell on [his] face and begged Him, saying, Lord, if You will, You can cleanse me.

mkjv@Luke:5:13 @ And stretching out the hand, He touched him, saying, I will! Be clean! And immediately the leprosy departed from him.

mkjv@Luke:5:14 @ And He commanded him, Tell no one, but go and show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing, as Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.

mkjv@Luke:5:15 @ But the word about Him spread even more. And great crowds were coming to hear, and to be healed from their infirmities by Him.

mkjv@Luke:5:16 @ But He was drawing back in the wilderness, and praying.

mkjv@Luke:5:17 @ And it happened on one of the days, even He was teaching. And Pharisees and teachers of [the] Law were sitting by, who had come out of every village of Galilee and Judea and Jerusalem. And the] power of [the] Lord was there, for the curing [of] them.

mkjv@Luke:5:18 @ And behold, men carrying, on a cot, a man who was paralyzed. And they sought to bring him in and to lay [him] before Him.

mkjv@Luke:5:19 @ And not finding a way by [which] they might bring him in through the crowd, going up on the housetop, they let him down through the tiles with his cot into the midst, before Jesus.

mkjv@Luke:5:20 @ And seeing their faith, He said to him, Man, your sins are forgiven you.

mkjv@Luke:5:21 @ And the scribes and Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, except God alone?

mkjv@Luke:5:22 @ But knowing their thoughts, answering, Jesus said to them, Why do you reason in your hearts?

mkjv@Luke:5:23 @ Which is easier, to say, Your sins are forgiven you; or to say, Rise up and walk?

mkjv@Luke:5:24 @ But so that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins, He said to the paralytic, I say to you, Arise, and take up your cot [and] go to your house.

mkjv@Luke:5:25 @ And immediately he rose up before them and took up [that] on which he lay. And he departed to his own house, glorifying God.

mkjv@Luke:5:26 @ And they were all amazed, and they glorified God and were filled [with] fear, saying, We saw wonderful things today.

mkjv@Luke:5:27 @ And after these things He went out and saw a tax-collector named Levi, sitting at the tax-office. And [He] said to him, Follow Me.

mkjv@Luke:5:28 @ And leaving all, he rose up and followed Him.

mkjv@Luke:5:29 @ And Levi made a great feast in his own house for Him. And there was a great company of tax-collectors and of others who were reclining with them.

mkjv@Luke:5:30 @ But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against His disciples, saying, Why do you eat and drink with tax-collectors and sinners?

mkjv@Luke:5:31 @ And Jesus answered and said to them, Those who are sound do not need a physician, but those who are sick.

mkjv@Luke:5:32 @ I did not come to call the righteous to repentance, but sinners.

mkjv@Luke:5:33 @ And they said to Him, Why do John's disciples fast often and make prayers, and also [the disciples] of the Pharisees, but yours eat and drink?

mkjv@Luke:5:34 @ But He said to them, Can you make the sons of the bridechamber fast while the bridegroom is with them?

mkjv@Luke:5:35 @ But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then they shall fast in those days.

mkjv@Luke:5:36 @ And He also spoke a parable to them: No one puts a piece of a new garment on an old garment. Otherwise, both the new will tear, and [the old] does not match [the] piece from the new.

mkjv@Luke:5:37 @ And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. Else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskin will perish.

mkjv@Luke:5:38 @ But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved together.

mkjv@Luke:5:39 @ Also no one having drunk old [wine] immediately desires new, for he says, The old is better.

mkjv@Luke:6:1 @ And it happened on the second chief sabbath, He went through the grain fields. And His disciples plucked the heads [of grain] and ate, rubbing [them] in their hands.

mkjv@Luke:6:2 @ And certain of the Pharisees said to them, Why do you do that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?

mkjv@Luke:6:3 @ And answering, Jesus said to them, Have you not read this, what David did when he was hungry, and those who were with him;

mkjv@Luke:6:4 @ how he went into the house of God and took the showbread, and ate (and also gave to those who were with him) which it is not lawful to eat, except for the priests alone?

mkjv@Luke:6:5 @ And He said to them, The Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.

mkjv@Luke:6:6 @ And it happened, also on another sabbath, that He entered into the synagogue and taught. And there was a man whose right hand was withered.

mkjv@Luke:6:7 @ And the scribes and Pharisees watched him [to see] if He would heal on the sabbath day, so that they might find an accusation against Him.

mkjv@Luke:6:8 @ But He knew their thoughts and said to the man who had the withered hand, Rise up and stand in the middle. And he arose and stood.

mkjv@Luke:6:9 @ Then Jesus said to them, I will ask you one thing: Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil, to save life, or to destroy [it]?

mkjv@Luke:6:10 @ And looking around on them all, He said to the man, Stretch out your hand! And he did so. And his hand was restored whole like the other.

mkjv@Luke:6:11 @ And they were filled [with] madness, and talked with one another [as to] what they might do to Jesus.

mkjv@Luke:6:12 @ And it happened in those days that He went out into a mountain to pray, and He was spending the night in prayer to God.

mkjv@Luke:6:13 @ And when it was day, He called His disciples. And He chose twelve of them, whom He also named apostles:

mkjv@Luke:6:14 @ Simon, whom He also named Peter, and Andrew his brother; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew;

mkjv@Luke:6:15 @ Matthew and Thomas; James [the son] of Alpheus, and Simon who was called Zelotes;

mkjv@Luke:6:16 @ Judas [the brother] of James, and Judas Iscariot, who also became [the] betrayer.

mkjv@Luke:6:17 @ And coming down with them, He stood on a level place. And a crowd of His disciples, and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon (who came to hear Him and to be healed of their diseases) were there;

mkjv@Luke:6:18 @ also those tormented by unclean spirits; and they were healed.

mkjv@Luke:6:19 @ And all the crowd sought to touch Him, for power went out of Him and healed [them] all.

mkjv@Luke:6:20 @ And lifting up His eyes to His disciples, He said, Blessed [are] the poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:6:21 @ Blessed [are] you who hunger now, for you shall be filled. Blessed [are you] who weep now, for you shall laugh.

mkjv@Luke:6:22 @ Blessed [are] you when men shall hate you, and when they shall cut you off, and when they shall reproach [you] and shall cast out your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of man.

mkjv@Luke:6:23 @ Rejoice in that day and leap for joy. For behold, your reward [is] great in Heaven. For so their fathers did according to these things to the prophets.

mkjv@Luke:6:24 @ But woe to you who are rich! For you have received your consolation.

mkjv@Luke:6:25 @ Woe to you who are full! For you shall hunger. Woe to you who laugh now! For you shall mourn and weep.

mkjv@Luke:6:26 @ Woe to you when all men shall speak well [of] you! For so their fathers did to the false prophets.

mkjv@Luke:6:27 @ But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

mkjv@Luke:6:28 @ bless those who curse you, and pray for those who despitefully use you.

mkjv@Luke:6:29 @ And to him who strikes you on the [one] cheek, also offer the other. And to him who takes away your garment, do not forbid your tunic also.

mkjv@Luke:6:30 @ Give to everyone who asks of you, and from him who takes away your goods, do not ask [them] again.

mkjv@Luke:6:31 @ And as you desire that men should do to you, you do also to them likewise.

mkjv@Luke:6:32 @ For if you love those who love you, what thanks do you have? For sinners also love those who love them.

mkjv@Luke:6:33 @ And if you do good to those who do good to you, what thanks do you have? For sinners also do the same.

mkjv@Luke:6:34 @ And if you lend [to those] of whom you hope to receive, what thanks do you have? For sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.

mkjv@Luke:6:35 @ But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing [in return]. And your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the Highest. For He is kind to the unthankful and [to] the evil.

mkjv@Luke:6:36 @ Therefore be merciful, even as your Father is merciful.

mkjv@Luke:6:37 @ Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you shall be forgiven.

mkjv@Luke:6:38 @ Give, and it shall be given to you, good measure pressed down and shaken together and running over, they shall give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you measure, it shall be measured to you again.

mkjv@Luke:6:39 @ And He spoke a parable to them: Can the blind lead the blind? Shall they not both fall into the ditch?

mkjv@Luke:6:40 @ The disciple is not above his master, but everyone who is perfect shall be like his master.

mkjv@Luke:6:41 @ And why do you look at the splinter that is in your brother's eye, but do not see the beam that is in [your] own eye?

mkjv@Luke:6:42 @ Or how can you say to your brother, Brother, let me pull out the splinter in your eye, when you yourself do not see the beam that is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First cast out the beam out of your own eye, and then you shall see clearly to pull out the splinter that is in your brother's eye.

mkjv@Luke:6:43 @ For a good tree does not bring forth corrupt fruit, neither does a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

mkjv@Luke:6:44 @ For every tree is known by [its] own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush.

mkjv@Luke:6:45 @ A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth the good. And an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth the evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.

mkjv@Luke:6:46 @ And why do you call Me Lord, Lord, and do not do what I say?

mkjv@Luke:6:47 @ Whoever comes to Me and hears My words, and does them, I will show you to whom he is like.

mkjv@Luke:6:48 @ He is like a man who built a house and dug deep and laid the foundation on a rock; and a flood occurring, the stream burst against that house and could not shake it; for it was founded on a rock.

mkjv@Luke:6:49 @ But he who hears and does not perform, is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, on which the stream burst, and immediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great.

mkjv@Luke:7:1 @ And when He had ended all His words in the ears of the people, He entered into Capernaum.

mkjv@Luke:7:2 @ And a certain servant of a centurion who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die.

mkjv@Luke:7:3 @ And when he heard of Jesus, he sent the elders of the Jews to Him, begging Him that He would come and heal his servant.

mkjv@Luke:7:4 @ And coming to Jesus, they begged Him earnestly, saying that he was worthy, he for whom You give this;

mkjv@Luke:7:5 @ for, [they said], He loves our nation, and he has built us a synagogue.

mkjv@Luke:7:6 @ Then Jesus went with them. But He being yet not far off from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, Lord, do not trouble Yourself. For I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof.

mkjv@Luke:7:7 @ Therefore neither did I think myself worthy to come to You; but say a word, and my servant will be healed.

mkjv@Luke:7:8 @ For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers. And I say to one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does [it].

mkjv@Luke:7:9 @ And hearing these things, Jesus marveled at him. And turning to the crowd following Him, He said, I say to you, I have not found such faith, no, not in Israel.

mkjv@Luke:7:10 @ And they who were sent, returning to the house, found the sick servant well.

mkjv@Luke:7:11 @ And it happened on the next day, He went into a city called Nain. And many of His disciples and a great crowd went with Him.

mkjv@Luke:7:12 @ And drawing near the gate of the city, even behold, one having died was being carried out, an only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a considerable crowd of the city was with her.

mkjv@Luke:7:13 @ And when the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said to her, Do not weep.

mkjv@Luke:7:14 @ And He came and touched the bier. And the ones who bore [him] stood still. And He said, Young man, I say to you, Arise!

mkjv@Luke:7:15 @ And the one who was dead sat up and began to speak. And He delivered him to his mother.

mkjv@Luke:7:16 @ And fear came on all. And they glorified God, saying, A great prophet has risen up among us; and, God has visited His people.

mkjv@Luke:7:17 @ And this report of Him went out in all Judea, and in all the neighborhood.

mkjv@Luke:7:18 @ And his disciples reported all these things to John.

mkjv@Luke:7:19 @ And John, calling near a certain two of his disciples, sent [them] to Jesus, saying, Are You He that should come, or do we look for another?

mkjv@Luke:7:20 @ And coming to Him, the men said, John the Baptist has sent us to You, saying, Are You He who should come, or do we look for another?

mkjv@Luke:7:21 @ And in the same hour He cured many of infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits. And He gave sight to many who were blind.

mkjv@Luke:7:22 @ And answering, Jesus said to them, Go and tell John what you have seen and heard; that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the gospel is proclaimed to the poor.

mkjv@Luke:7:23 @ And blessed is [he] who shall not be offended in Me.

mkjv@Luke:7:24 @ And when the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the people concerning John. What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?

mkjv@Luke:7:25 @ But what did you go out to see? A man clothed with soft clothing? Behold, those in splendid clothing and being in luxury are in kings' palaces.

mkjv@Luke:7:26 @ But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet.

mkjv@Luke:7:27 @ This is [he] of whom it is written, Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, who shall prepare Your way before You.

mkjv@Luke:7:28 @ For I say to you, Among [those] who are born of woman there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist. But he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

mkjv@Luke:7:29 @ And all the people and the tax-collectors who heard [Him] justified God, being baptized [with] the baptism of John.

mkjv@Luke:7:30 @ But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, not being baptized by him.

mkjv@Luke:7:31 @ And the Lord said, To what then shall I compare the men of this generation? And to what are they like?

mkjv@Luke:7:32 @ They are like children sitting in a market and calling to one another, and saying, We have played the flute to you, and you have not danced; we have mourned to you, and you did not weep.

mkjv@Luke:7:33 @ For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, He has a demon.

mkjv@Luke:7:34 @ The Son of man has come eating and drinking, and you say, Behold a gluttonous man and a winebibber, a friend of tax-collectors and sinners!

mkjv@Luke:7:35 @ But wisdom has been justified by all her children.

mkjv@Luke:7:36 @ And one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And going into the Pharisee's house, He reclined.

mkjv@Luke:7:37 @ And behold, a woman, a sinner in the city, knowing that He reclined in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster vial of ointment.

mkjv@Luke:7:38 @ And she stood behind [Him], weeping at His feet, and she began to wash His feet with tears and wipe them with the hair of her head. And [she] ardently kissed His feet and anointed [them] with the ointment.

mkjv@Luke:7:39 @ But seeing this, the Pharisee who had invited Him, spoke within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what kind of woman [this is] who touches him, for she is a sinner.

mkjv@Luke:7:40 @ And answering, Jesus said to him, Simon, I have something to say to you. And he said, Teacher, speak.

mkjv@Luke:7:41 @ There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and [the] other fifty.

mkjv@Luke:7:42 @ And they having nothing to pay, he freely forgave both. Then which of them do [you] say will love him most?

mkjv@Luke:7:43 @ And answering, Simon said, I suppose that one to whom he forgave most. And He said to him, You have judged rightly.

mkjv@Luke:7:44 @ And He turned to the woman and said to Simon, Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, yet you gave Me no water for My feet. But she has washed My feet with tears, and has wiped [them] with the hair of her head.

mkjv@Luke:7:45 @ You gave Me no kiss, but this woman, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss My feet.

mkjv@Luke:7:46 @ You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with ointment.

mkjv@Luke:7:47 @ Therefore I say to you, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, he loves little.

mkjv@Luke:7:48 @ And He said to her, Your sins are forgiven.

mkjv@Luke:7:49 @ And those reclining with [Him] began to say within themselves, Who is this who even forgives sins?

mkjv@Luke:7:50 @ And He said to the woman, Your faith has saved you, go in peace.

mkjv@Luke:8:1 @ And it happened afterwards, He traveled in every city and village, proclaiming and announcing the gospel of the kingdom of God. And the Twelve [were] with Him,

mkjv@Luke:8:2 @ and also certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities; Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven demons,

mkjv@Luke:8:3 @ and Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered to Him of their possessions.

mkjv@Luke:8:4 @ And a great crowd coming together, and those in each city coming to Him, He spoke by a parable:

mkjv@Luke:8:5 @ A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, the one fell by the roadside and was trampled; and the birds of the air devoured it.

mkjv@Luke:8:6 @ And other fell on a rock, and sprouting, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.

mkjv@Luke:8:7 @ And other fell amidst thorns, and springing up with the thorns, [they] choked it.

mkjv@Luke:8:8 @ And other fell on good ground and sprang up, and bore fruit a hundredfold. And when He had said these things, He cried, He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

mkjv@Luke:8:9 @ And His disciples asked Him, saying, What might this parable be?

mkjv@Luke:8:10 @ And He said, To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God. But to others I speak in parables, so that seeing they might not see and hearing they might not understand.

mkjv@Luke:8:11 @ And the parable is this: The seed is the Word of God.

mkjv@Luke:8:12 @ Those by the roadside are the ones who hear; then the Devil comes and takes the Word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.

mkjv@Luke:8:13 @ Those on the rock [are] the ones who, when they hear, receive the Word with joy. And these have no root, who for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

mkjv@Luke:8:14 @ And those which fell among thorns are the ones who, when they have heard, go forth and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of life, and do not bear to maturity.

mkjv@Luke:8:15 @ But those on the good ground are the ones who, in an honest and good heart, having heard the Word, keep [it] and bring forth fruit with patience.

mkjv@Luke:8:16 @ And no one lighting a lamp covers it with a vessel or puts [it] under a couch; but he sets [it] on a lampstand so that those who enter in may see the light.

mkjv@Luke:8:17 @ For nothing is secret that shall not be revealed; nor secret which shall not be known and come to be revealed.

mkjv@Luke:8:18 @ Therefore be careful how you hear. For whoever has, to him shall be given; and whoever has not, from him shall be taken even that which he seems to have.

mkjv@Luke:8:19 @ And His mother and [His] brothers came to Him. And they could not come near Him because of the crowd.

mkjv@Luke:8:20 @ And it was told to Him [by some], who said, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside desiring to see You.

mkjv@Luke:8:21 @ And He answered and said to them, My mother and My brothers are those who hear the Word of God and do it.

mkjv@Luke:8:22 @ And it happened on a certain day that He went into a boat with His disciples. And He said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the lake. And they put out to sea.

mkjv@Luke:8:23 @ But as they sailed, He fell asleep. And a storm of wind came onto the lake. And they were being filled [with water] and were in jeopardy.

mkjv@Luke:8:24 @ And they came to Him and awakened Him, saying, Master, Master, we are perishing! Then being aroused, He rebuked the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceased, and there was a calm.

mkjv@Luke:8:25 @ And He said to them, Where is your faith? And being afraid, they marveled, saying to one another, Who then is this One? For He commands even the winds and water, and they obey Him!

mkjv@Luke:8:26 @ And they sailed down to the country of the Gadarenes, which is across from Galilee.

mkjv@Luke:8:27 @ And He going out onto land, He met a certain man out of the city, who had had demons a long time, and put on no clothes, nor stayed in a house, but among the tombs.

mkjv@Luke:8:28 @ And seeing Jesus, he cried out and fell down before Him and said with a loud voice, What is to me and to You, Jesus, Son of God the Most High? I beseech You, Do not torment me!

mkjv@Luke:8:29 @ (For He had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had seized him. And he had been kept bound in chains and in fetters, and he broke the bands and was driven into the deserted [places] by the demons.)

mkjv@Luke:8:30 @ And Jesus asked him, saying, What is your name? And he said, Legion; because many demons had entered into him.

mkjv@Luke:8:31 @ And they begged Him that He would not command them to go out into the abyss.

mkjv@Luke:8:32 @ And there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain. And they begged Him that He would allow them to enter into them. And He allowed them.

mkjv@Luke:8:33 @ And coming out of the man, the demons entered into the pigs. And the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake and were choked.

mkjv@Luke:8:34 @ And those feeding [the pigs], and seeing the thing, fled. And leaving, [they] reported to the city and to the farms.

mkjv@Luke:8:35 @ And they went out to see what had been done. And they came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had departed sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

mkjv@Luke:8:36 @ Also those who saw [it] told them how the demon-possessed one was healed.

mkjv@Luke:8:37 @ And all the multitude of the neighborhood of the Gadarenes were seized with a great fear, and asked Him to depart from them. And entering into the boat, He returned.

mkjv@Luke:8:38 @ And the man out of whom the demons had gone out begged Him, [desiring] to be with Him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,

mkjv@Luke:8:39 @ Return to your own house and declare what God has done to you. And he went his way and proclaimed throughout all the city what [great] things Jesus had done to him.

mkjv@Luke:8:40 @ And it happened when Jesus had returned, the people received Him. For they were all waiting for Him.

mkjv@Luke:8:41 @ And behold, a man named Jairus came, and he was a synagogue-ruler. And he fell down at Jesus' feet and begged Him that He would come into his house.

mkjv@Luke:8:42 @ For he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay dying. But as He went, the people thronged Him.

mkjv@Luke:8:43 @ And a woman who had a flow of blood twelve years (who had spent all her living on physicians, [and] could not be healed by any)

mkjv@Luke:8:44 @ came behind [Him] and touched the border of His garment. And instantly her flow of blood was staunched.

mkjv@Luke:8:45 @ And Jesus said, Who touched Me? And all having denied, Peter and those with Him said, Master, the crowd presses and jostles You, and You say, Who touched Me?

mkjv@Luke:8:46 @ And Jesus said, Someone has touched Me, for I know that power has gone out of Me.

mkjv@Luke:8:47 @ And seeing that she was not hidden, the woman came trembling. And falling down before Him, she declared to Him before all the people why she had touched Him, and how she was instantly healed.

mkjv@Luke:8:48 @ And He said to her, Daughter, be comforted. Your faith has saved you; go in peace.

mkjv@Luke:8:49 @ He was still speaking when someone came from the synagogue-ruler, saying to him, Your daughter is dead, do not trouble the Teacher.

mkjv@Luke:8:50 @ But when Jesus heard, He answered Him, saying, Do not fear, only believe and she shall be healed.

mkjv@Luke:8:51 @ And coming into the house, He allowed no one to go in, except Peter and James and John, and the father and the mother of the girl.

mkjv@Luke:8:52 @ And all were weeping and bewailing her. But He said, Do not weep; she has not died, but sleeps.

mkjv@Luke:8:53 @ And they ridiculed, knowing that she was dead.

mkjv@Luke:8:54 @ And He put them all out. And He took her by the hand and called, saying, Little girl, arise!

mkjv@Luke:8:55 @ And her spirit came again, and she arose immediately. And He commanded that [food] be given her to eat.

mkjv@Luke:8:56 @ And her parents were astonished. But He charged them to tell no one the thing that happened.

mkjv@Luke:9:1 @ And He called His twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases.

mkjv@Luke:9:2 @ And [He] sent them to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.

mkjv@Luke:9:3 @ And He said to them, Take nothing for [your] journey, neither staffs, nor a bag, nor bread, nor money, nor each to have two tunics.

mkjv@Luke:9:4 @ And whatever house you enter into, abide there and depart from there.

mkjv@Luke:9:5 @ And whoever will not receive you, when you go out of that city shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.

mkjv@Luke:9:6 @ And they departed and went through the towns, proclaiming the gospel and healing everywhere.

mkjv@Luke:9:7 @ And Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things happening by Him. And he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from [the] dead;

mkjv@Luke:9:8 @ and by some, that Elijah had appeared; and by others, that one of the old prophets had risen again.

mkjv@Luke:9:9 @ And Herod said, John I have beheaded, but who is this of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see Him.

mkjv@Luke:9:10 @ And returning, the apostles told Him all that they had done. And He took them and went aside privately into a deserted place of a city called Bethsaida.

mkjv@Luke:9:11 @ But knowing [this], the crowds followed Him. And He received them and spoke to them of the kingdom of God, and He healed those who had need of healing.

mkjv@Luke:9:12 @ But the day began to wear away, and coming up the Twelve said to Him, Send the crowd away so that they may go into the villages and farms all around, and lodge, and get food. For we are here in a deserted place.

mkjv@Luke:9:13 @ But He said to them, You give them [something] to eat. And they said, We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we go and buy food for all these people.

mkjv@Luke:9:14 @ (For they were about five thousand men.) And He said to His disciples, Make them recline by fifties in a company.

mkjv@Luke:9:15 @ And they did so, and made them all recline.

mkjv@Luke:9:16 @ And He took the five loaves and the two fish. And looking up to Heaven, He blessed them and broke, and He gave to the disciples to set before the crowd.

mkjv@Luke:9:17 @ And they ate and were all filled. And there was taken up twelve hand baskets full of fragments of that left over to them.

mkjv@Luke:9:18 @ And it happened [as] He was alone praying, the disciples were with Him. And He asked them, saying, Whom do the crowds say that I am?

mkjv@Luke:9:19 @ Answering, they said, John the Baptist; but some [say], Elijah, and others say that one of the old prophets has risen again.

mkjv@Luke:9:20 @ He said to them, But who do you say that I am? Answering, Peter said, The Christ of God.

mkjv@Luke:9:21 @ And He strictly charged them and commanded to tell no one this,

mkjv@Luke:9:22 @ saying, The Son of man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day.

mkjv@Luke:9:23 @ And He said to all, If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me.

mkjv@Luke:9:24 @ For whoever will save his life shall lose it, but whoever will lose his life for My sake, he shall save it.

mkjv@Luke:9:25 @ For what is a man profited if he gains the whole world and loses himself, or is cast away?

mkjv@Luke:9:26 @ For whoever shall be ashamed of Me and of My words, the Son of man shall be ashamed of him when He shall come in His own and [in His] Father's glory, and that of the holy angels.

mkjv@Luke:9:27 @ But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who shall not taste of death until they see the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:9:28 @ And about eight days after these sayings, He took Peter and John and James and went up into a mountain to pray.

mkjv@Luke:9:29 @ And as He prayed, the appearance of His countenance was altered, and His clothing [was] dazzling white.

mkjv@Luke:9:30 @ And behold, two men talked with Him, who were Moses and Elijah,

mkjv@Luke:9:31 @ who appeared in glory and spoke of His exodus, which He was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:9:32 @ But Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep. But fully awakening, they saw His glory, and the two men who stood with Him.

mkjv@Luke:9:33 @ And in their parting from Him, it happened that Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for [us] to be here. And let us make three tabernacles, one for You and one for Moses and one for Elijah; not knowing what he said.

mkjv@Luke:9:34 @ And as he was saying these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them. And they feared [as] they entered into the cloud.

mkjv@Luke:9:35 @ And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is My Son, the Beloved, hear Him.

mkjv@Luke:9:36 @ And when the voice occurred, Jesus was found alone. And they were silent, and told no one in those days anything which they had seen.

mkjv@Luke:9:37 @ And it happened on the next day, they coming down from the mountain, a huge crowd met Him.

mkjv@Luke:9:38 @ And behold, a man cried aloud from the crowd, saying, Teacher, I beseech You, look on my son, for he is my only-born son.

mkjv@Luke:9:39 @ And lo, a spirit takes him, and [he] suddenly cries out. And [it] throws him into convulsions, with foaming, and with pain departs from him, bruising him.

mkjv@Luke:9:40 @ And I begged Your disciples to cast him out, and they could not.

mkjv@Luke:9:41 @ And answering, Jesus said, O unbelieving generation, [one] having been perverted, how long shall I be with you and endure you? Bring your son here.

mkjv@Luke:9:42 @ And as [he] was still coming, the demon violently convulsed and tore [him]. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the child and delivered him again to his father.

mkjv@Luke:9:43 @ And they were all amazed at the majesty of God. But as all were marveling at all things which Jesus did, He said to His disciples,

mkjv@Luke:9:44 @ Let these words sink down into your ears. For the Son of man shall be betrayed into [the] hands of men.

mkjv@Luke:9:45 @ But they did not understand this, and it was hidden from them so that they did not perceive it. And they feared to ask Him of this word.

mkjv@Luke:9:46 @ And an argument came in among them, who might be [the] greater of them.

mkjv@Luke:9:47 @ And seeing the argument of their heart, Jesus took a child and set him beside Him.

mkjv@Luke:9:48 @ And He said to them, Whoever shall receive this child in My name receives Me. And whoever shall receive Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is least among you all, he shall be great.

mkjv@Luke:9:49 @ And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out demons in Your name. And we prevented him, because he does not follow us.

mkjv@Luke:9:50 @ And Jesus said to him, Do not prevent [him], for he who is not against us is for us.

mkjv@Luke:9:51 @ And it happened in the fulfilling [of] the days of His taking up, He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:9:52 @ And [He] sent messengers before His face. And they went and entered into a village of the Samaritans to make ready for Him.

mkjv@Luke:9:53 @ And they did not receive Him, because His face was going toward Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:9:54 @ And seeing, His disciples James and John said, Lord, do You desire [that] we command fire to come down from Heaven and consume them, even as Elijah did?

mkjv@Luke:9:55 @ But He turned and rebuked them and said, You do not know of what spirit you are.

mkjv@Luke:9:56 @ For the Son of man has not come to destroy men's lives, but to save. And they went to another village.

mkjv@Luke:9:57 @ And it happened as they were going in the way, one said to Him, Lord, I will follow You wherever You go.

mkjv@Luke:9:58 @ And Jesus said to him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air [have] nests, but the Son of man has nowhere to lay [His] head.

mkjv@Luke:9:59 @ And He said to another, Follow Me! But he said, Lord, first allow me to go and bury my father.

mkjv@Luke:9:60 @ Jesus said to him, Let the dead bury their dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:9:61 @ And another also said, Lord, I will follow You, but first allow me to take leave of those in my house.

mkjv@Luke:9:62 @ And Jesus said to him, No one, having put his hand to the plow and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:10:1 @ And after these things the Lord appointed seventy others, And He sent them two and two before His face into every city and place where He was about to come.

mkjv@Luke:10:2 @ Then He said to them, The harvest truly [is] great, but the laborers [are] few. Therefore pray [to] the Lord of the harvest that He may send forth laborers into His harvest.

mkjv@Luke:10:3 @ Go! Behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.

mkjv@Luke:10:4 @ Carry neither purse nor bag nor sandals. And greet no one by the way.

mkjv@Luke:10:5 @ And into whatever house you enter, first say, Peace to this house.

mkjv@Luke:10:6 @ And if a son of peace is there, your peace shall rest on it. If not, it shall return to you,

mkjv@Luke:10:7 @ And remain in the same house, eating and drinking the things [shared] by them; for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Do not move from house to house.

mkjv@Luke:10:8 @ And into whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you.

mkjv@Luke:10:9 @ And heal the sick that are in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come near you!

mkjv@Luke:10:10 @ And into whatever city you enter, and they do not receive you, going out into the streets say,

mkjv@Luke:10:11 @ Even the dust of your city which clings to us, we wipe off against you. Yet be sure of this, that the kingdom of God has come near you.

mkjv@Luke:10:12 @ But I say to you that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.

mkjv@Luke:10:13 @ Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works which have been done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented a long while ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

mkjv@Luke:10:14 @ But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the Judgment than for you.

mkjv@Luke:10:15 @ And you, Capernaum, which has been lifted up to Heaven, you shall be thrust down into hell.

mkjv@Luke:10:16 @ The one hearing you hears Me, and he who despises you despises Me; he who rejects you [also] rejects Him who sent Me.

mkjv@Luke:10:17 @ And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us through Your name.

mkjv@Luke:10:18 @ And He said to them, I saw Satan fall from Heaven like lightning.

mkjv@Luke:10:19 @ Behold, I give to you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the authority of the enemy. And nothing shall by any means hurt you.

mkjv@Luke:10:20 @ Yet do not rejoice in this, that the [evil] spirits are subject to you, rather rejoice because your names are written in Heaven.

mkjv@Luke:10:21 @ In that hour Jesus rejoiced in Spirit and said, I thank You, Father, Lord of Heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from [the] sophisticated and cunning, and have revealed them to babes. Yes, Father, for so it was pleasing before You.

mkjv@Luke:10:22 @ All things are delivered to Me by My Father; and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and the one to whom the Son will reveal [Him].

mkjv@Luke:10:23 @ And He turned to [His] disciples and said privately, Blessed [are] the eyes which see the things that you see.

mkjv@Luke:10:24 @ For I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you see, and have not seen [them], and to hear what you hear, and have not heard [them].

mkjv@Luke:10:25 @ And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tempted Him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

mkjv@Luke:10:26 @ He said to him, What is written in the law? How do you read it?

mkjv@Luke:10:27 @ And answering, he said, You shall love [the] Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.

mkjv@Luke:10:28 @ And He said to him, You have answered right; do this and you shall live.

mkjv@Luke:10:29 @ But he, willing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?

mkjv@Luke:10:30 @ And answering, Jesus said, A certain [man] went down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell among robbers, who stripped him of his clothing and wounded him, and departed, leaving [him] half dead.

mkjv@Luke:10:31 @ And by coincidence a certain priest came down that way and seeing him, he passed by on the opposite [side].

mkjv@Luke:10:32 @ And in the same way a Levite, also being at the place, coming and seeing [him], he passed on the opposite [side].

mkjv@Luke:10:33 @ But a certain traveling Samaritan came upon him, and seeing him, he was filled with pity.

mkjv@Luke:10:34 @ And coming near, [he] bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine, and set him on his own animal and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

mkjv@Luke:10:35 @ And going on the next day, he took out two denarii and gave [them] to the innkeeper, and said to him, Take care of him. And whatever more you spend, when I come again I will repay you.

mkjv@Luke:10:36 @ Then which of these three, do you think, was neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?

mkjv@Luke:10:37 @ And he said, The [one] doing the [deed of] mercy to him. And Jesus said to him, Go and do likewise.

mkjv@Luke:10:38 @ And as they went, it happened that He entered into a certain village. And a certain woman named Martha received Him into her house.

mkjv@Luke:10:39 @ And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus' feet [and] heard His word.

mkjv@Luke:10:40 @ But Martha was distracted with much serving. And she came to Him and said, Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me.

mkjv@Luke:10:41 @ And Jesus answered and said to her, Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things.

mkjv@Luke:10:42 @ But one thing is needful, and Mary has chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

mkjv@Luke:11:1 @ And it happened [as] He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said to Him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught His disciples.

mkjv@Luke:11:2 @ And He said to them, When you pray, say: Our Father, who [is] in Heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come, Your will be done, as in Heaven, so also on the earth.

mkjv@Luke:11:3 @ Give us day by day our daily bread,

mkjv@Luke:11:4 @ and forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

mkjv@Luke:11:5 @ And He said to them, which of you shall have a friend and shall go to him at midnight and say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves,

mkjv@Luke:11:6 @ for a friend of mine has come from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him?

mkjv@Luke:11:7 @ And he answering from inside may say, Do not trouble me. The door is now shut and my children are in bed with me. I cannot rise and give to you.

mkjv@Luke:11:8 @ I say to you, though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will arise and give him as many as he needs.

mkjv@Luke:11:9 @ And I say to you, Ask and it shall be given you. Seek and you shall find. Knock and it shall be opened to you.

mkjv@Luke:11:10 @ For everyone who asks receives. And he who seeks finds. And to him who knocks it shall be opened.

mkjv@Luke:11:11 @ For what father of you, [if] the son asks [for] bread, will he give him a stone? Or if [he asks] for a fish, will he give him a snake for a fish?

mkjv@Luke:11:12 @ Or if he shall ask for an egg, will he give him a scorpion?

mkjv@Luke:11:13 @ If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall [your] heavenly Father give [the] Holy Spirit to those who ask Him?

mkjv@Luke:11:14 @ And He was casting out a demon, and it was dumb. And it happened as the demon [was] going out, the dumb one spoke. And the people marveled.

mkjv@Luke:11:15 @ But some of them said, He casts out demons through Beelzebub the chief of the demons.

mkjv@Luke:11:16 @ And others, tempting [Him], sought a sign from Heaven from him.

mkjv@Luke:11:17 @ But knowing their thoughts, He said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation. And a house [divided] against a house falls.

mkjv@Luke:11:18 @ If Satan also is divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons through Beelzebub.

mkjv@Luke:11:19 @ And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast [them] out? Therefore they shall be your judges.

mkjv@Luke:11:20 @ But if I cast out demons with [the] finger of God, no doubt the kingdom of God has come on you.

mkjv@Luke:11:21 @ When the strong man, fully armed, guards his dwelling, his goods are in peace.

mkjv@Luke:11:22 @ But when one stronger than he comes, he overcomes him. He takes from him all his armor in which he trusted, and he distributes his arms.

mkjv@Luke:11:23 @ He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

mkjv@Luke:11:24 @ When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he walks through dry places seeking rest. And finding none, he says, I will return to my house from which I came out.

mkjv@Luke:11:25 @ And when he comes, he finds [it] swept and decorated.

mkjv@Luke:11:26 @ And he goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and entering in, they dwell there. And the last state of that man is worse than the first.

mkjv@Luke:11:27 @ And it happened [as] He spoke these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice [and] said to Him, Blessed [is] the womb that bore You, and [the] breasts which You have sucked.

mkjv@Luke:11:28 @ But He said, No; rather, blessed [are] they who hear the Word of God and keep it.

mkjv@Luke:11:29 @ But the crowds pressing on [Him], He began to say, This is an evil generation. It seeks a sign, and no sign will be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet.

mkjv@Luke:11:30 @ For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so also shall the Son of man be to this generation.

mkjv@Luke:11:31 @ The queen of the south shall rise up in the Judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them. For she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon. And behold, One greater than Solomon [is] here.

mkjv@Luke:11:32 @ The men of Nineveh shall rise up in the Judgment with this generation and shall condemn it. For they repented at the preaching of Jonah. And behold, One greater than Jonah [is] here.

mkjv@Luke:11:33 @ No one, when he has lighted a lamp, puts [it] in a secret place, or under a grain-measure, but on a lampstand, so that they who come in may see the light.

mkjv@Luke:11:34 @ The light of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is sound, your whole body also is [full of] light. But when [your eye] is evil, your body also [is full of] darkness.

mkjv@Luke:11:35 @ Therefore take heed that the light in you is not darkness.

mkjv@Luke:11:36 @ Therefore if your whole body [is] full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be [full of] light, as when the shining of a lamp enlightens you.

mkjv@Luke:11:37 @ And [as He spoke], a certain Pharisee asked Him to dine with him. And He went in and reclined.

mkjv@Luke:11:38 @ And when the Pharisee saw [it], he was amazed that He had not first washed before dinner.

mkjv@Luke:11:39 @ And the Lord said to him, Now you Pharisees make the outside of the cup and the platter clean, but your inward part is full of plunder and wickedness.

mkjv@Luke:11:40 @ Fools! Did not He who made the outside also make the inside?

mkjv@Luke:11:41 @ But give alms [of] such things as you have, and behold, all things [are] clean to you.

mkjv@Luke:11:42 @ But woe to you, Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and pass over judgment and the love of God. You ought to have done these, and not to leave the other undone.

mkjv@Luke:11:43 @ Woe to you, Pharisees! For you love the chief seats in the synagogues and greetings in the markets.

mkjv@Luke:11:44 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like unseen tombs and the men walking above are not aware of them.

mkjv@Luke:11:45 @ And one of the lawyers answered and said to Him, Master, you reproach us also when you say this.

mkjv@Luke:11:46 @ And He said, Woe to you also, lawyers! For you load men with burdens grievous to be carried, and [you] yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.

mkjv@Luke:11:47 @ Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.

mkjv@Luke:11:48 @ Truly you bear witness that you consent to the deeds of your fathers. For they indeed killed them, and you build their tombs.

mkjv@Luke:11:49 @ Therefore the wisdom of God also said, I will send them prophets and apostles, and [some] of them they shall slay and persecute,

mkjv@Luke:11:50 @ so that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from [the] foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;

mkjv@Luke:11:51 @ from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, [who] perished between the altar and the temple. Truly I say to you, It shall be required of this generation.

mkjv@Luke:11:52 @ Woe to you, lawyers! For you have taken away the key of knowledge. You did not enter in yourselves, and you have hindered those who were entering in.

mkjv@Luke:11:53 @ And as He said these things to them, the scribes and Pharisees began to be terribly angry, and to draw [Him] out concerning many things,

mkjv@Luke:11:54 @ lying in ambush for Him, and seeking to catch something out of His mouth, so that they might accuse Him.

mkjv@Luke:12:1 @ In the meantime, when there had gathered together an innumerable crowd of people, so as to trample on one another, He began to say to His disciples first, Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

mkjv@Luke:12:2 @ For there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed, nor anything hidden that shall not be known.

mkjv@Luke:12:3 @ Therefore whatever you have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light. And that which you have spoken in the ear in secret rooms shall be proclaimed on the housetops.

mkjv@Luke:12:4 @ And I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.

mkjv@Luke:12:5 @ But I will warn you of whom you shall fear: Fear Him who, after He has killed, has authority to cast into hell. Yea, I say to you, fear Him.

mkjv@Luke:12:6 @ Are not five sparrows sold for two assaria? And not one of them is forgotten before God.

mkjv@Luke:12:7 @ But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Therefore do not fear, you are of more value than many sparrows.

mkjv@Luke:12:8 @ Also I say to you, Whoever shall confess Me before men, the Son of man also shall confess him before the angels of God.

mkjv@Luke:12:9 @ But he who denies Me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.

mkjv@Luke:12:10 @ And whoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him. But to him who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, [it] shall not be forgiven.

mkjv@Luke:12:11 @ And when they bring you into the synagogues, and [to] rulers and authorities, take no thought as to how or what thing you shall answer, or what you shall say.

mkjv@Luke:12:12 @ For the Holy Spirit shall teach you in the same hour what you ought to say.

mkjv@Luke:12:13 @ And one of the company said to Him, Master, speak to my brother to divide the inheritance with me.

mkjv@Luke:12:14 @ And He said to him, Man, who made Me a judge or a divider over you?

mkjv@Luke:12:15 @ And He said to them, Watch and keep yourselves from covetousness. For a man's life is not in the abundance of the things which he possesses.

mkjv@Luke:12:16 @ And He spoke a parable to them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully.

mkjv@Luke:12:17 @ And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room in which to store my fruits?

mkjv@Luke:12:18 @ And he said, I will do this. I will pull down my barns and build bigger ones, and I will store all my fruits and my goods there.

mkjv@Luke:12:19 @ And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have many goods laid [up] for many years. Take your ease, eat drink [and] be merry.

mkjv@Luke:12:20 @ But God said to him, Fool! This night your soul shall be required of you, then whose shall be those things which you have prepared?

mkjv@Luke:12:21 @ So [is] he who lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.

mkjv@Luke:12:22 @ And He said to His disciples, Therefore I say to you, Be not anxious as to your life, what you shall eat; nor for the body, what you shall put on.

mkjv@Luke:12:23 @ Life is more than food, and the body [is more] than clothing.

mkjv@Luke:12:24 @ Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap, having neither storehouse nor barn, and God feeds them. How much more are you better than the birds?

mkjv@Luke:12:25 @ And which of you [by] being anxious can add one cubit to his stature?

mkjv@Luke:12:26 @ If then you are not able to do even the least, why are you anxious about the rest?

mkjv@Luke:12:27 @ Consider the lilies, how they grow; they do not toil, they do not spin. And yet I say to you that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

mkjv@Luke:12:28 @ If then God so clothes the grass (which today [is] in the field, and tomorrow is cast into the oven) how much more [will He clothe] you, O little-faiths?

mkjv@Luke:12:29 @ And do not seek what you shall eat, nor what you shall drink, and stop being in anxiety.

mkjv@Luke:12:30 @ For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you have need of these things.

mkjv@Luke:12:31 @ But rather seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.

mkjv@Luke:12:32 @ Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.

mkjv@Luke:12:33 @ Sell what you have and give alms. Make for yourselves purses which do not become old, an unfailing treasure in Heaven, where no thief comes nor moth corrupts.

mkjv@Luke:12:34 @ For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

mkjv@Luke:12:35 @ Let your loins be girded about, and [your] lights burning.

mkjv@Luke:12:36 @ And you yourselves be like men who wait for their lord, whenever he shall return from the wedding, so that when he comes and knocks, they may open to him immediately.

mkjv@Luke:12:37 @ Blessed [are] those servants whom the lord will find watching when [he] comes. Truly I say to you that he shall gird himself and make them recline; and coming up he will serve them.

mkjv@Luke:12:38 @ And if he comes in the second watch, or comes in the third watch, and find [it] so, blessed are those servants.

mkjv@Luke:12:39 @ And know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and would not have allowed his house to be dug through.

mkjv@Luke:12:40 @ Therefore be ready also, for the Son of man comes at an hour when you think not.

mkjv@Luke:12:41 @ And Peter said to Him, Lord, do You speak this parable to us or also to all?

mkjv@Luke:12:42 @ And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward whom [his] lord shall set over his houseservants, to give [them their] portion of food in season?

mkjv@Luke:12:43 @ Blessed [is] that servant [when] his lord comes [and] finds him so doing.

mkjv@Luke:12:44 @ Truly I say to you that he will set him over all his possessions.

mkjv@Luke:12:45 @ But if that servant says in his heart, My lord delays his coming, and shall begin to beat the male servants and women servants, and to eat and drink and to be drunk,

mkjv@Luke:12:46 @ the lord of that servant will come in a day when he does not expect, and at an hour when he does not know. And he will cut him apart, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.

mkjv@Luke:12:47 @ And that servant who knew his lord's will and did not prepare, nor did according to His will, shall be beaten with many [stripes].

mkjv@Luke:12:48 @ But he not knowing, and doing [things] worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few [stripes]. For to whomever much is given, of him much shall be required. And to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.

mkjv@Luke:12:49 @ I have come to send fire on the earth. And what will I do if it is already kindled?

mkjv@Luke:12:50 @ But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how I am pressed down until it is accomplished!

mkjv@Luke:12:51 @ Do you suppose that I have come to give peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather division.

mkjv@Luke:12:52 @ For from now on, there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.

mkjv@Luke:12:53 @ The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

mkjv@Luke:12:54 @ And He also said to the crowd, When you see a cloud rise out of the west, immediately you say, There is a shower coming. And so it is.

mkjv@Luke:12:55 @ And when [you see] the south wind blow, you say, There will be heat; and it occurs.

mkjv@Luke:12:56 @ Hypocrites! You know to discern the face of the heaven and the earth, but how [is it] that you do not discern this time?

mkjv@Luke:12:57 @ And why, even of yourselves, do you not judge what is right?

mkjv@Luke:12:58 @ For as you go with your adversary to the judge, give pains in the way to be set free from him, lest he drag you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer cast you into the prison.

mkjv@Luke:12:59 @ I tell you, you shall not depart from there until you have paid the very last lepton.

mkjv@Luke:13:1 @ And some were present at the same time reporting to Him of the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

mkjv@Luke:13:2 @ And answering, Jesus said to them, Do you suppose that these Galileans were sinners above all the Galileans because they suffered such things?

mkjv@Luke:13:3 @ I tell you, No. But unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.

mkjv@Luke:13:4 @ Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were sinners above all men who lived in Jerusalem?

mkjv@Luke:13:5 @ I tell you, No. But unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.

mkjv@Luke:13:6 @ He also spoke this parable: A certain [man] had a fig-tree planted in his vineyard. And he came and sought fruit on it, and found none.

mkjv@Luke:13:7 @ And he said to the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig-tree, and find none. Cut it down, why does it encumber the ground?

mkjv@Luke:13:8 @ And answering, he said to him, Lord, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and throw manure.

mkjv@Luke:13:9 @ And if it bears fruit, [well]; and if not, then after that you shall cut it down.

mkjv@Luke:13:10 @ And He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.

mkjv@Luke:13:11 @ And behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bowed together and was not able to be completely erect.

mkjv@Luke:13:12 @ And when Jesus saw her, He called and said to her, Woman, you are delivered from your infirmity.

mkjv@Luke:13:13 @ And He laid [His] hands on her. And instantly she was made erect, and she glorified God.

mkjv@Luke:13:14 @ And answering, the synagogue ruler, being angry because Jesus had healed on the sabbath day, said to the crowd, There are six days in which it is right to work. Therefore in them come and be healed, and not on the sabbath day.

mkjv@Luke:13:15 @ And the Lord answered him and said, Hypocrite! Does not each one of you on the sabbath loosen his ox or ass from the stall and lead [it] away, to give [it] drink?

mkjv@Luke:13:16 @ And ought not this [woman], being a daughter of Abraham whom Satan has bound, lo these eighteen years, be loosened from this bond on the Sabbath day?

mkjv@Luke:13:17 @ And when He had said these things, all His adversaries were ashamed. And all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by Him.

mkjv@Luke:13:18 @ And He said, What is the kingdom of God like? And to what shall I compare it?

mkjv@Luke:13:19 @ It is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and threw into his garden. And it grew and became a great tree, and the birds of the air lodged in its branches.

mkjv@Luke:13:20 @ And again He said, To what shall I compare the kingdom of God?

mkjv@Luke:13:21 @ It is like leaven which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, until the whole was leavened.

mkjv@Luke:13:22 @ And He went through the cities and villages, teaching and progressing toward Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:13:23 @ And one said to Him, Lord, [are] the ones being saved few? And He said to them,

mkjv@Luke:13:24 @ Strive to enter in at the narrow gate. For I say to you, many will seek to enter in and shall not be able.

mkjv@Luke:13:25 @ And once the Master of the house has risen up and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us, and He shall answer and say to you, I do not know you; from where are you;

mkjv@Luke:13:26 @ then you shall begin to say, We ate and drank in Your presence, and You have taught in our streets.

mkjv@Luke:13:27 @ But He shall say, I tell you, I do not know you; from where you are. Depart from Me, all workers of unrighteousness!

mkjv@Luke:13:28 @ There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you will see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and yourselves being thrust out.

mkjv@Luke:13:29 @ And they will come from the east and the west, and from the north and the south, and will recline in the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:13:30 @ And behold, there are last ones which will be first, and there are first ones which will be last.

mkjv@Luke:13:31 @ The same day there came certain of the Pharisees, saying to Him, Go out and depart from here, for Herod will kill you.

mkjv@Luke:13:32 @ And He said to them, You go and tell that fox, Behold, today and tomorrow, I cast out demons and I complete cures, and the third [day] I will be finished.

mkjv@Luke:13:33 @ Yet I must walk today and tomorrow and the [day] following. For it cannot be that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:13:34 @ Jerusalem! Jerusalem! the [one] killing the prophets, and stoning those having been sent to her; how often I desired to gather your children in the way a hen [gathers] her brood under the wings, and you did not desire [it].

mkjv@Luke:13:35 @ Behold, your house is left to you desolate. And truly I say to you, You will not see Me until it come when you say, Blessed [is] He who comes in [the] name of [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:14:1 @ And as He went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day, it happened that they watched Him.

mkjv@Luke:14:2 @ And behold, a certain man was dropsical before Him.

mkjv@Luke:14:3 @ And answering, Jesus spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath [day]?

mkjv@Luke:14:4 @ And they were silent. And taking [him], He healed him and let him go.

mkjv@Luke:14:5 @ And He answered them, saying, Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fall into a pit and will not immediately pull him out on the sabbath day?

mkjv@Luke:14:6 @ And they could not answer Him again as to these things.

mkjv@Luke:14:7 @ And He put forth a parable to those who were invited, when He noted how they chose out the chief places, saying to them,

mkjv@Luke:14:8 @ When you are invited by anyone to a wedding, do not recline in the chief seat, lest a more honorable [man] than you may be invited by him.

mkjv@Luke:14:9 @ And he who invited you and him shall come and say to you, Give place to this man; and then you begin with shame to take the last place.

mkjv@Luke:14:10 @ But when you are invited, go and recline in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may say to you, Friend, go up higher. Then glory shall be to you before those reclining with you.

mkjv@Luke:14:11 @ For whoever exalts himself shall be abased, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted.

mkjv@Luke:14:12 @ And He also said to him who invited Him, When you make a dinner or a supper, do not call your friends or your brothers, or your kinsmen, or [your] rich neighbors; lest they also invite you again, and a recompense be made to you.

mkjv@Luke:14:13 @ But when you make a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind,

mkjv@Luke:14:14 @ and you shall be blessed, for they cannot repay you; for you shall be repaid at the resurrection of the just.

mkjv@Luke:14:15 @ And one of those who reclined with [Him] heard these things, and [he] said to Him, Blessed [are] those eating bread in the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:14:16 @ And He said to him, A certain man made a great supper and invited many.

mkjv@Luke:14:17 @ And he sent his servant at supper time to say to those who were invited, Come, for all things are now ready.

mkjv@Luke:14:18 @ And all with one [consent] began to make excuse. The first said to him, I have bought a piece of ground, I must go and see it. I beg you, have me excused.

mkjv@Luke:14:19 @ And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to test them. I beg you, have me excused.

mkjv@Luke:14:20 @ And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.

mkjv@Luke:14:21 @ And coming up that servant reported these things to his lord. And the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city and bring in here the poor and the maimed, and the lame and the blind.

mkjv@Luke:14:22 @ And the servant said, Lord, [it] is done as you have commanded, and still there is room.

mkjv@Luke:14:23 @ And the lord said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges and compel [them] to come in, so that my house may be filled.

mkjv@Luke:14:24 @ For I say to you that none of these men who were invited shall taste of my supper.

mkjv@Luke:14:25 @ And great crowds went with Him. And He turned and said to them,

mkjv@Luke:14:26 @ If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and his [own] life also, he cannot be My disciple.

mkjv@Luke:14:27 @ And whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me, he cannot be My disciple.

mkjv@Luke:14:28 @ For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first [and] count the cost, whether he may have [enough] to finish it;

mkjv@Luke:14:29 @ lest perhaps, after he has laid the foundation and is not able to finish, all those seeing begin to mock him,

mkjv@Luke:14:30 @ saying, This man began to build and was not able to finish.

mkjv@Luke:14:31 @ Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not first sit down [and] consult whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?

mkjv@Luke:14:32 @ Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks [conditions] of peace.

mkjv@Luke:14:33 @ So then, everyone of you who does not forsake all his possessions, he cannot be My disciple.

mkjv@Luke:14:34 @ Salt [is] good, but if the salt has become tasteless, with what shall it be seasoned?

mkjv@Luke:14:35 @ It is not fit for the land, nor for manure, [but men] throw it out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

mkjv@Luke:15:1 @ And all the tax-collectors and sinners drew near to Him in order to hear Him.

mkjv@Luke:15:2 @ And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receives sinners and eats with them.

mkjv@Luke:15:3 @ And He spoke this parable to them, saying,

mkjv@Luke:15:4 @ What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after that which is lost until he finds it?

mkjv@Luke:15:5 @ And when he has found [it], he lays [it] on his shoulders, rejoicing.

mkjv@Luke:15:6 @ And when he comes home, he calls together [his] friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.

mkjv@Luke:15:7 @ I say to you that likewise joy shall be in Heaven over one sinner who repents, more than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance.

mkjv@Luke:15:8 @ Or what woman having ten drachmas, if she loses one drachma, does she not light a lamp and sweep the house, and seek carefully until she finds [it]?

mkjv@Luke:15:9 @ And when she has found [it], she calls [her] friends and her neighbors together, saying, Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost.

mkjv@Luke:15:10 @ Likewise I say to you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents.

mkjv@Luke:15:11 @ And He said, A certain man had two sons.

mkjv@Luke:15:12 @ And the younger of them said to [his] father, Father, give me the portion of goods that is coming [to me]. And he divided [his] living to them.

mkjv@Luke:15:13 @ And not many days afterward, the younger son gathered all together and went away into a far country. And there he wasted his property, living dissolutely.

mkjv@Luke:15:14 @ And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land. And he began to be in want.

mkjv@Luke:15:15 @ And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country. And he sent him into his fields to feed pigs.

mkjv@Luke:15:16 @ And he was longing to fill his belly with the husks that the pigs ate, and no one gave to him.

mkjv@Luke:15:17 @ And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father abound in loaves, and I perish with hunger!

mkjv@Luke:15:18 @ I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against Heaven and before you

mkjv@Luke:15:19 @ and am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.

mkjv@Luke:15:20 @ And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him.

mkjv@Luke:15:21 @ And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against Heaven and before you, and am no more worthy to be called your son.

mkjv@Luke:15:22 @ But the father said to his servants, Bring the best robe and put [it] on him. And put a ring on his hand and shoes on [his] feet.

mkjv@Luke:15:23 @ And bring the fattened calf here and kill [it]. And let us eat and be merry,

mkjv@Luke:15:24 @ for this my son was dead and is alive again, he was lost and is found. And they began to be merry.

mkjv@Luke:15:25 @ And his elder son was in the field. And as he came and drew near the house, he heard music and dancing.

mkjv@Luke:15:26 @ And he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant.

mkjv@Luke:15:27 @ And he said to him, Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has received him safe and sound.

mkjv@Luke:15:28 @ And he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and entreated him.

mkjv@Luke:15:29 @ And answering he said to [his] father, Lo, these many years I have served you, neither did I transgress your commandment at any time. And yet you never gave [me] a kid so that I might make merry with my friends.

mkjv@Luke:15:30 @ But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your living with harlots, you have killed for him the fattened calf.

mkjv@Luke:15:31 @ And he said to him, Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours.

mkjv@Luke:15:32 @ It was right that we should make merry and be glad, for this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

mkjv@Luke:16:1 @ And He also said to His disciples, There was a certain rich man who had a steward. And he was accused to him, that he had wasted his goods.

mkjv@Luke:16:2 @ And he called him and said to him, What [is] this I hear about you? Give an account of your stewardship, for you may no longer be steward.

mkjv@Luke:16:3 @ And the steward said within himself, What shall I do? For my lord is taking the stewardship away from me. I cannot dig; I am ashamed to beg.

mkjv@Luke:16:4 @ I know what I will do, so that when I am put out of the stewardship they may receive me into their houses.

mkjv@Luke:16:5 @ So he called every one of his lord's debtors and said; to the first, How much do you owe my lord?

mkjv@Luke:16:6 @ And he said, A hundred baths of oil. And he said to him, Take your bill and sit down quickly and write fifty.

mkjv@Luke:16:7 @ And he said to another, And how much do you owe? And he said, A hundred cors of wheat. And he said to him, Take your bill and write eighty.

mkjv@Luke:16:8 @ And the unjust steward's lord commended him because he had done wisely. For the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.

mkjv@Luke:16:9 @ And I say to you, Make friends by the mammon of unrighteousness for yourselves, so that when you fail, they may receive you into everlasting dwellings.

mkjv@Luke:16:10 @ He who is faithful in [the] least is also faithful in much. And he who is unjust in the least is also unjust in much.

mkjv@Luke:16:11 @ Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will entrust the true [riches] to you?

mkjv@Luke:16:12 @ And if you have not been faithful in that which is another's, who shall give you that which is your own?

mkjv@Luke:16:13 @ No servant can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

mkjv@Luke:16:14 @ And being money-lovers, all the Pharisees also heard all these things. And they derided Him.

mkjv@Luke:16:15 @ And He said to them, You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

mkjv@Luke:16:16 @ The law and the prophets [were] until John. Since that time the kingdom of God is proclaimed, and everyone is pressing into it.

mkjv@Luke:16:17 @ And it is easier [for] the heaven and earth to pass than for one tittle of the law to fail.

mkjv@Luke:16:18 @ Everyone putting away his wife and marrying another commits adultery; and everyone marrying her who is put away from [her] husband commits adultery.

mkjv@Luke:16:19 @ There was a certain rich man who [was] customarily clothed in purple and fine linen and making merry in luxury every day.

mkjv@Luke:16:20 @ And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, who was laid at his gate, full of sores

mkjv@Luke:16:21 @ and desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table. But even the dogs came and licked his sores.

mkjv@Luke:16:22 @ And it happened that the beggar died and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom. The rich one also died and was buried.

mkjv@Luke:16:23 @ And in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

mkjv@Luke:16:24 @ And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am tormented in this flame.

mkjv@Luke:16:25 @ But Abraham said, Son, remember that you in your lifetime received your good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things. But now he is comforted and you are tormented.

mkjv@Luke:16:26 @ And besides all this, there is a great chasm fixed between you and us; so that they desiring to pass from here to you cannot, nor can they pass over to us from there.

mkjv@Luke:16:27 @ And he said, I beg you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house,

mkjv@Luke:16:28 @ for I have five brothers, so that he may testify to them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

mkjv@Luke:16:29 @ Abraham said to him, They have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them.

mkjv@Luke:16:30 @ And he said, No, father Abraham, but if one should go to them from [the] dead, they would repent.

mkjv@Luke:16:31 @ And he said to him, If they do not hear Moses and the Prophets, they will not be persuaded, even though one rose from [the] dead.

mkjv@Luke:17:1 @ And He said to the disciples, It is impossible but that offenses will come. But woe [to him] through whom they come!

mkjv@Luke:17:2 @ It were better for him that a millstone were hanged around his neck and he were cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

mkjv@Luke:17:3 @ Take heed to yourselves. If your brother trespasses against you, rebuke him. And if he repents, forgive him.

mkjv@Luke:17:4 @ And if he trespasses against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turns again to you, saying, I repent, you shall forgive him.

mkjv@Luke:17:5 @ And the apostles said to the Lord, Give us more faith.

mkjv@Luke:17:6 @ And the Lord said, If you had faith as a grain of mustard seed, you might say to this sycamine tree, Be rooted up and be planted in the sea! And it would obey you.

mkjv@Luke:17:7 @ But which of you who has a servant plowing or feeding will say [to him] immediately after he has come from the field, Come, recline?

mkjv@Luke:17:8 @ Will [he] not say to him, Prepare something [so that] I may eat, and gird yourself and serve me until I eat and drink. And afterward you shall eat and drink.

mkjv@Luke:17:9 @ [Does] he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I think not.

mkjv@Luke:17:10 @ So likewise you, when you shall have done all the things commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants, for we have done what we ought to do.

mkjv@Luke:17:11 @ And as He went to Jerusalem, it happened that he went through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

mkjv@Luke:17:12 @ And as He entered into a certain village, ten leprous men met Him, who stood afar off.

mkjv@Luke:17:13 @ And they lifted voice and said, Jesus, Master, pity us!

mkjv@Luke:17:14 @ And seeing [them], He said to them, Go show yourselves to the priests. And it happened, as they went, that they were cleansed.

mkjv@Luke:17:15 @ And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back and glorified God with a loud voice.

mkjv@Luke:17:16 @ And he fell down on [his] face at His feet, thanking Him. And he was a Samaritan.

mkjv@Luke:17:17 @ And answering, Jesus said, Were there not ten cleansed? But where [are] the nine?

mkjv@Luke:17:18 @ Were none found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?

mkjv@Luke:17:19 @ And He said to him, Rise and go; your faith has cured you.

mkjv@Luke:17:20 @ And being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered and said, The kingdom of God does not come with observation.

mkjv@Luke:17:21 @ Nor shall they say, Lo here! or, behold, there! For behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst.

mkjv@Luke:17:22 @ And He said to the disciples, The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and you shall not see [it].

mkjv@Luke:17:23 @ And they shall say to you, Lo, here! or, behold, there! Do not go away, nor follow.

mkjv@Luke:17:24 @ For as the lightning which lights up, flashing from the [one part] under heaven, [and] shines to the [other part] under heaven, so also shall the Son of man be in His day.

mkjv@Luke:17:25 @ But first He must suffer many things and be rejected of this generation.

mkjv@Luke:17:26 @ And as it was in the days of Noah, so it also shall be in the days of the Son of man.

mkjv@Luke:17:27 @ They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until [the] day that Noah entered into the ark; and the flood came and destroyed [them] all.

mkjv@Luke:17:28 @ So also as it was in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;

mkjv@Luke:17:29 @ but the day Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from the heaven and destroyed [them] all.

mkjv@Luke:17:30 @ Even so it shall be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

mkjv@Luke:17:31 @ In that day he who shall be on the housetop, and his goods in the house, let him not come down to take them away. And likewise, he who is in the field, let him not return to the things behind.

mkjv@Luke:17:32 @ Remember Lot's wife.

mkjv@Luke:17:33 @ Whoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it, and whoever shall lose [his life] shall preserve it.

mkjv@Luke:17:34 @ I tell you, in that night there shall be two in one bed, the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

mkjv@Luke:17:35 @ Two shall be grinding together, one will be taken, and the other left.

mkjv@Luke:17:36 @ Two shall be in the field, one will be taken, and the other left.

mkjv@Luke:17:37 @ And they answered and said to Him, Where, Lord? And He said to them, Wherever the body [is], there the eagles will be gathered together.

mkjv@Luke:18:1 @ And He also spoke a parable to them to [teach] it is always right to pray, and not to faint,

mkjv@Luke:18:2 @ saying, A certain judge was in a certain city, not fearing God, nor respecting man.

mkjv@Luke:18:3 @ And a widow was in that city. And she came to Him, saying, Avenge me of my adversary.

mkjv@Luke:18:4 @ And he would not do so for a time. But afterward he said within himself, Though I do not fear God nor regard man,

mkjv@Luke:18:5 @ yet because this widow troubles me, I will avenge her, that she not wear me down in [the] end.

mkjv@Luke:18:6 @ And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge says.

mkjv@Luke:18:7 @ And shall not God avenge His own elect who cry day and night to Him, though He has been long-suffering over them?

mkjv@Luke:18:8 @ I say to you that He will avenge them speedily. Yet when the Son of man comes, shall He find faith on the earth?

mkjv@Luke:18:9 @ And He spoke this parable to certain ones who trusted in themselves, that they were righteous, and despised others:

mkjv@Luke:18:10 @ Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a tax-collector.

mkjv@Luke:18:11 @ The Pharisee stood and prayed within himself in this way: God, I thank You that I am not as other men [are], extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax-collector.

mkjv@Luke:18:12 @ I fast twice [on] the Sabbath, I give tithes of all that I possess.

mkjv@Luke:18:13 @ And standing afar off, the tax-collector would not even lift up [his] eyes to Heaven, but struck on his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner!

mkjv@Luke:18:14 @ I tell you, this man went down to his house justified [rather] than the other. For everyone who exalts himself shall be abased, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted.

mkjv@Luke:18:15 @ And they also brought infants to Him, that He might touch them. But when the disciples saw, they rebuked them.

mkjv@Luke:18:16 @ But Jesus called them and said, Allow the little children to come to Me, and forbid them not. For of such is the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:18:17 @ Truly I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no way enter into it.

mkjv@Luke:18:18 @ And a certain ruler asked Him, saying, Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

mkjv@Luke:18:19 @ And Jesus said to him, Why do you call Me good? None [is] good except One, God.

mkjv@Luke:18:20 @ You know the commandments: Do not commit adultery, do not kill, do not steal, do not bear false witness, honor your father and your mother.

mkjv@Luke:18:21 @ And he said, I have kept all these from my youth up.

mkjv@Luke:18:22 @ And when Jesus heard these things, He said to him, Yet you lack one thing. Sell all that you have and distribute to [the] poor, and you shall have treasure in Heaven. And come, follow Me.

mkjv@Luke:18:23 @ And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful, for he was very rich.

mkjv@Luke:18:24 @ And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, He said, How hardly those having riches shall enter into the kingdom of God!

mkjv@Luke:18:25 @ For it is easier [for] a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich one to enter into the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:18:26 @ And the ones who heard said, And who can be saved?

mkjv@Luke:18:27 @ And He said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.

mkjv@Luke:18:28 @ And Peter said, Lo, we have left all and have followed You.

mkjv@Luke:18:29 @ And He said to them, Truly I say to you, There is no one who has left house, or parents, or brothers, or wife, or children for the sake of the kingdom of God,

mkjv@Luke:18:30 @ who shall not receive many times more in this present time, and, in the world to come everlasting life.

mkjv@Luke:18:31 @ And He took the Twelve and said to them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man will be accomplished.

mkjv@Luke:18:32 @ For He will be delivered to the nations and will be mocked and insulted and spat on.

mkjv@Luke:18:33 @ And they will scourge [Him] and put Him to death, and the third day He will rise again.

mkjv@Luke:18:34 @ And they did not understand any of these things. And this saying was hidden from them, nor did they know the things which were spoken.

mkjv@Luke:18:35 @ And as He came near Jericho, it happened that a certain blind man sat by the roadside begging.

mkjv@Luke:18:36 @ And hearing the crowd pass by, he asked what it meant.

mkjv@Luke:18:37 @ And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth passed by.

mkjv@Luke:18:38 @ And he cried, saying, Jesus, Son of David! Have mercy on me.

mkjv@Luke:18:39 @ And they who were in front rebuked him that he should be quiet. But he cried so much the more, Son of David! Have mercy on me.

mkjv@Luke:18:40 @ And Jesus stood and commanded him to be brought to Him. And when he had come near, He asked him,

mkjv@Luke:18:41 @ saying, What do you desire that I should do to you? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.

mkjv@Luke:18:42 @ And Jesus said to him, Receive your sight! Your faith has saved you.

mkjv@Luke:18:43 @ And immediately he received his sight and followed him, glorifying God. And when they saw, all the people gave praise to God.

mkjv@Luke:19:1 @ And going in, He passed through Jericho.

mkjv@Luke:19:2 @ And behold, [there was] a man named Zaccheus, who was a chief tax-collector. And he was rich.

mkjv@Luke:19:3 @ And he sought to see Jesus, to see who He was. And he could not because of the press, because he was little in stature.

mkjv@Luke:19:4 @ And he ran in front and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him. For He was to pass through that [way].

mkjv@Luke:19:5 @ And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up and saw him. And He said to him, Zaccheus! Hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house.

mkjv@Luke:19:6 @ And hurrying he came down, and received Him joyfully.

mkjv@Luke:19:7 @ And seeing, they all murmured, saying, He has gone in to stay with a sinful man.

mkjv@Luke:19:8 @ And Zaccheus stood and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, I give half of my goods to the poor. And [in] anything I accused anyone falsely, I restore [it] fourfold.

mkjv@Luke:19:9 @ And Jesus said to him, This day salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.

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

mkjv@Luke:19:11 @ And as they heard these things, He added and spoke a parable, because He was near Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God was about to appear immediately.

mkjv@Luke:19:12 @ Therefore He said, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive a kingdom for himself, and to return.

mkjv@Luke:19:13 @ And He called his ten servants and delivered ten minas, and said to them, Trade until I come back.

mkjv@Luke:19:14 @ But his citizens hated him. And they sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this one to reign over us.

mkjv@Luke:19:15 @ And when he had received his kingdom and had returned, then it happened that he commanded these servants to be called to him; the ones to whom he had given the silver; so that he might know what each had gained by trading.

mkjv@Luke:19:16 @ And came the first, saying, Lord, your mina has gained ten minas.

mkjv@Luke:19:17 @ And he said to him, Well [done], good servant, because you have been faithful in a least thing, have authority over ten cities.

mkjv@Luke:19:18 @ And the second came, saying, Lord, your mina has made five minas.

mkjv@Luke:19:19 @ And he said the same to him, You be over five cities.

mkjv@Luke:19:20 @ And another came, saying, Lord, behold, [here is] your mina, which I have kept in a handkerchief.

mkjv@Luke:19:21 @ For I feared you, because you are a harsh man. You take up what you did not lay down, and you reap what you did not sow.

mkjv@Luke:19:22 @ And he said to him, I will judge you out of your own mouth, wicked servant! You knew that I was a harsh man, taking up what I had not laid down and reaping what I did not sow.

mkjv@Luke:19:23 @ And why did you not give my silver on the [bank] table, and coming I might have exacted it with interest?

mkjv@Luke:19:24 @ And he said to those who stood by, Take the mina from him and give [it] to him who has ten minas.

mkjv@Luke:19:25 @ And they said to him, Lord, he has ten minas.

mkjv@Luke:19:26 @ For I say to you that to everyone who has, more will be given. And from him who has not, even that which he has will be taken from him.

mkjv@Luke:19:27 @ But those who are my enemies, who did not desire that I should reign over them, bring them here and slay [them] before me.

mkjv@Luke:19:28 @ And saying these things, He went in front, going up to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:19:29 @ And it happened as He drew near Bethphage and Bethany, toward the mount called Mount of Olives, He sent two of the disciples,

mkjv@Luke:19:30 @ saying, Go into the village across [from you], and having entered, you will find a colt tied up, on which no one of men has yet sat. Untie it and bring [it].

mkjv@Luke:19:31 @ And if anyone asks you, Why are you untying [it]? You will say this to him, Because the Lord has need of it.

mkjv@Luke:19:32 @ And going, those who were sent found as He had said to them.

mkjv@Luke:19:33 @ And [as] they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, Why are you untying the colt?

mkjv@Luke:19:34 @ And they said, The Lord has need of him.

mkjv@Luke:19:35 @ And they brought him to Jesus. And they threw their garments on the colt. And they set Jesus on [it].

mkjv@Luke:19:36 @ And as He went, they spread their clothes in the way.

mkjv@Luke:19:37 @ And when He had come near, even now at the descent of the Mount of Olives, all the multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all [the] mighty works which they had seen,

mkjv@Luke:19:38 @ saying, Blessed [is] the King coming in the name of the Lord! Peace in Heaven and glory in [the] highest!

mkjv@Luke:19:39 @ And some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to Him, Teacher, rebuke your disciples.

mkjv@Luke:19:40 @ And He answered and said to them, I tell you that if these should be silent, the stones would cry out.

mkjv@Luke:19:41 @ And as He drew near, He beheld the city and wept over it,

mkjv@Luke:19:42 @ saying, If you had known, even you, even at least in this day of yours, the things for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.

mkjv@Luke:19:43 @ For the days will come on you that your enemies will raise up a rampart to you, and will surround you, and will keep you in on every side.

mkjv@Luke:19:44 @ And they will tear you down, and your children within you, and will not leave a stone on a stone because you did not know the time of your visitation.

mkjv@Luke:19:45 @ And entering into the temple, He began to cast out those selling and buying in it,

mkjv@Luke:19:46 @ saying to them, It is written, My house is a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves.

mkjv@Luke:19:47 @ And He taught in the temple daily. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy Him.

mkjv@Luke:19:48 @ And [they] could not find what they might do, for all the people were hanging on Him, listening.

mkjv@Luke:20:1 @ And on one of those days, as He taught the people in the temple and proclaimed the gospel, it happened that the chief priests and the scribes along with the elders came on [Him].

mkjv@Luke:20:2 @ And they spoke to Him, saying, Tell us, by what authority do you do these things? Or who is he who gave you this authority?

mkjv@Luke:20:3 @ And He answered and said to them, I will also ask you one thing, and you answer me:

mkjv@Luke:20:4 @ The baptism of John, was it from Heaven or from men?

mkjv@Luke:20:5 @ And they reasoned within themselves, saying, If we shall say, From Heaven, he will say, Why then did you not believe him?

mkjv@Luke:20:6 @ But if we say, From men, then all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.

mkjv@Luke:20:7 @ And they answered that they could not tell from where [it was].

mkjv@Luke:20:8 @ And Jesus said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

mkjv@Luke:20:9 @ And He began to speak to the people this parable: A certain man planted a vineyard and let it out to vinedressers. And [he] went into a far country for a long time.

mkjv@Luke:20:10 @ And in season he sent a servant to the vinedressers, so that they should give him the fruit of the vineyard. But the vinedressers beat him and sent [him] away empty.

mkjv@Luke:20:11 @ And again he sent another servant. And they also beat him and treated [him] shamefully, and sent [him] away empty.

mkjv@Luke:20:12 @ And again he sent a third. And they also wounded him and cast [him] out.

mkjv@Luke:20:13 @ And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that they will respect [him] when they see him.

mkjv@Luke:20:14 @ But when the vinedressers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir! Come, let us kill him so that the inheritance may be ours.

mkjv@Luke:20:15 @ So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed [him]. What then shall the lord of the vineyard do to them?

mkjv@Luke:20:16 @ He shall come and destroy these vinedressers and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard this, they said, Let it not be!

mkjv@Luke:20:17 @ And He looked at them and said, What then is this which is written, The] Stone which the builders rejected, the same has become [the] Head of [the] corner?

mkjv@Luke:20:18 @ Whoever shall fall on that Stone shall be broken, but on whomever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

mkjv@Luke:20:19 @ And the chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on Him the same hour. And [they] feared the people, for they perceived that He had spoken this parable against them.

mkjv@Luke:20:20 @ And they watched and sent forth spies, pretending themselves to be righteous men, so that they might seize upon a word of His, that they might deliver Him in this way to the power and authority of the governor.

mkjv@Luke:20:21 @ And they asked Him, saying, Teacher, we know that you say and teach rightly, and do not accept the person of anyone, but truly teach the way of God.

mkjv@Luke:20:22 @ Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar or not?

mkjv@Luke:20:23 @ But He perceived their craftiness and said to them, Why do you tempt Me?

mkjv@Luke:20:24 @ Show Me a coin. Whose image and inscription does it have? They answered and said, Caesar's.

mkjv@Luke:20:25 @ And He said to them, Therefore render to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's.

mkjv@Luke:20:26 @ And they could not take hold of His words before the people. And they marveled at His answer and were silent.

mkjv@Luke:20:27 @ And certain of the Sadducees came, those speaking against a resurrection, [that it was] not to be. And they asked Him,

mkjv@Luke:20:28 @ saying, Teacher, Moses wrote to us, If anyone's brother dies, having a wife, and if he dies without children, his brother should take his wife and raise up seed to his brother.

mkjv@Luke:20:29 @ Therefore there were seven brothers. And the first took a wife and died without children.

mkjv@Luke:20:30 @ And the second took her as a wife, and he died childless.

mkjv@Luke:20:31 @ And the third took her. And likewise the seven left no children and died.

mkjv@Luke:20:32 @ Last of all the woman also died.

mkjv@Luke:20:33 @ Therefore in the resurrection whose wife shall she be? For the seven had her [as] a wife.

mkjv@Luke:20:34 @ And answering, Jesus said to them, The sons of this world marry and are given in marriage,

mkjv@Luke:20:35 @ but they who shall be counted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from [the] dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage.

mkjv@Luke:20:36 @ Nor can they die [any] more, for they are equal to the angels, and are the sons of God, being the sons of the resurrection.

mkjv@Luke:20:37 @ But that the dead are raised, even Moses pointed out at the Bush, when he called [the] Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

mkjv@Luke:20:38 @ For He is not God of [the] dead, but of the living. For all live to Him.

mkjv@Luke:20:39 @ And answering, certain of the scribes said, Teacher, you have spoken well.

mkjv@Luke:20:40 @ And after that they did not dare ask Him anything.

mkjv@Luke:20:41 @ And He said to them, How do they say that Christ is the Son of David?

mkjv@Luke:20:42 @ Even David himself says in [the] Book of Psalms, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand

mkjv@Luke:20:43 @ until I place Your enemies as Your footstool.

mkjv@Luke:20:44 @ David then calls Him Lord; how then is He his son?

mkjv@Luke:20:45 @ And as all the people were listening, He said to the disciples,

mkjv@Luke:20:46 @ Beware of the scribes who desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the first seats in the synagogues, and the chief places at the feasts;

mkjv@Luke:20:47 @ who devour widows' houses, and make long prayers for a show; the same shall receive a more severe condemnation.

mkjv@Luke:21:1 @ And looking up, He saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.

mkjv@Luke:21:2 @ And He also saw a certain poor widow casting two lepta in there.

mkjv@Luke:21:3 @ And He said, Truly I say to you that this poor widow has cast [in] more than all of them.

mkjv@Luke:21:4 @ For all these have cast in to the offerings of God from their abundance, but out of her poverty she has cast [in] all the living she had.

mkjv@Luke:21:5 @ And as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and gifts, He said,

mkjv@Luke:21:6 @ [As to] these things which you see, days will come in which there shall not be left a stone on a stone, which shall not be thrown down.

mkjv@Luke:21:7 @ And they asked Him, saying, Teacher, but when shall these things be? And what [shall be] the sign when these things are about to take place?

mkjv@Luke:21:8 @ And He said, Take heed that you are not deceived, for many shall come in My name, saying, I AM! Also, The time has come! Do not go after them.

mkjv@Luke:21:9 @ But when you hear of wars and disturbances, do not be terrified, for all these things must first occur, but the end [is] not at once.

mkjv@Luke:21:10 @ And He said to them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.

mkjv@Luke:21:11 @ And great earthquakes shall be in different places, and famines and plagues. And there shall be terrors and great signs from Heaven.

mkjv@Luke:21:12 @ But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you and persecute [you], delivering [you] up to the synagogues and prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for My name's sake.

mkjv@Luke:21:13 @ And it shall return to you for a testimony.

mkjv@Luke:21:14 @ Therefore settle [it] in your hearts not to meditate beforehand what you shall answer.

mkjv@Luke:21:15 @ For I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.

mkjv@Luke:21:16 @ And you shall be betrayed also by parents and brothers and kinsmen and friends. And they will cause [some] of you to be put to death.

mkjv@Luke:21:17 @ And you shall be hated by all for My name's sake.

mkjv@Luke:21:18 @ But there shall not a hair of your head perish.

mkjv@Luke:21:19 @ By your patience you will gain your souls.

mkjv@Luke:21:20 @ And when you see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that its destruction has come.

mkjv@Luke:21:21 @ And let those in Judea flee to the mountains. And those in its midst, let them go out. And those in the open spaces, let them not go into her.

mkjv@Luke:21:22 @ For these are the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

mkjv@Luke:21:23 @ But woe to those who are with child, and to those suckling in those days! For there shall be great distress in the land and wrath on this people.

mkjv@Luke:21:24 @ And they shall fall by [the] sword's edge. And shall be led away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem shall be trodden down by the nations until [the] times of [the] nations is fulfilled.

mkjv@Luke:21:25 @ And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars. And on the earth [will be] anxiety of nations with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

mkjv@Luke:21:26 @ men fainting from fear, and expecting those things which have come on the earth. For the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.

mkjv@Luke:21:27 @ And then they shall see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

mkjv@Luke:21:28 @ And when these things begin to happen, then look up and lift up your heads, for your redemption draws near.

mkjv@Luke:21:29 @ And He spoke a parable to them: Behold the fig-tree and all the trees.

mkjv@Luke:21:30 @ Now when they sprout leaves, seeing [it] you will know that summer is now near.

mkjv@Luke:21:31 @ So also, when you see these things happening, know that the kingdom of God is near.

mkjv@Luke:21:32 @ Truly I say to you, This generation shall not pass away until all [these] things are fulfilled.

mkjv@Luke:21:33 @ The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away.

mkjv@Luke:21:34 @ And take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts are weighed down with headaches and drinking and anxieties of this life; and that day should suddenly come on you;

mkjv@Luke:21:35 @ for it shall come as a snare on all those sitting on [the] face of the whole earth.

mkjv@Luke:21:36 @ Watch therefore, praying in every season that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things which shall occur, and to stand before the Son of man.

mkjv@Luke:21:37 @ And [in] the days He was teaching in the temple. And [in] the nights He went out, and lodged in the mount called [the Mount] of Olives.

mkjv@Luke:21:38 @ And all the people came early in the morning to Him in the temple, in order to hear Him.

mkjv@Luke:22:1 @ And the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called the Passover, drew near.

mkjv@Luke:22:2 @ And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill Him, for they feared the people.

mkjv@Luke:22:3 @ And Satan entered into Judas, surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the Twelve.

mkjv@Luke:22:4 @ And going, he talked with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray Him to them.

mkjv@Luke:22:5 @ And they were glad and they agreed to give him silver.

mkjv@Luke:22:6 @ And he fully consented, and he sought opportunity to betray Him to them, away from [the] crowd.

mkjv@Luke:22:7 @ And the day of the Unleavened Bread came, when the passover must be killed.

mkjv@Luke:22:8 @ And He sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare the passover for us, so that we may eat.

mkjv@Luke:22:9 @ And they said to Him. Where do You desire that we prepare?

mkjv@Luke:22:10 @ And He said to them, Behold, when you have entered into the city, you will meet a man bearing a pitcher of water. Follow him into the house where he enters.

mkjv@Luke:22:11 @ And you shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher says to you, Where is the guest room where I shall eat the passover with My disciples?

mkjv@Luke:22:12 @ And he shall show you a large, furnished upper room. Prepare there.

mkjv@Luke:22:13 @ And they went and found it as He had said to them. And they prepared the passover.

mkjv@Luke:22:14 @ And when the hour came, He and the twelve apostles with Him reclined.

mkjv@Luke:22:15 @ And He said to them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer.

mkjv@Luke:22:16 @ For I say to you, I will not any more eat of it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:22:17 @ And He took the cup and gave thanks and said, Take this and divide [it] among yourselves.

mkjv@Luke:22:18 @ For I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God shall come.

mkjv@Luke:22:19 @ And He took bread and gave thanks, and He broke [it] and gave [it] to them, saying, This is My body which is given for you, this do in remembrance of Me.

mkjv@Luke:22:20 @ In the same way He took] the cup, after having dined, saying, This cup [is] the new covenant in My blood, which is being poured out for you.

mkjv@Luke:22:21 @ But, behold, the hand of My betrayer [is] with Me on the table.

mkjv@Luke:22:22 @ And truly the Son of man goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!

mkjv@Luke:22:23 @ And they began to inquire among themselves which of them it was that should do this thing.

mkjv@Luke:22:24 @ And there was also a dispute among them as to which of them seems to be greater.

mkjv@Luke:22:25 @ And He said to them, The kings of the nations exercise lordship over them. And they who exercise authority on them are called benefactors.

mkjv@Luke:22:26 @ But you [shall] not [be] so: but the greater among you, let him be as the lesser, and he who governs, as [one] who serves.

mkjv@Luke:22:27 @ For which [is] the greater; he who reclines, or he who serves? [Is] it not he who reclines? But I am among you as He who serves.

mkjv@Luke:22:28 @ You are those who have continued with Me in My trials.

mkjv@Luke:22:29 @ And I appoint a kingdom to you, as My Father has appointed to Me,

mkjv@Luke:22:30 @ that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

mkjv@Luke:22:31 @ And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has desired you, that he may sift [you] as wheat.

mkjv@Luke:22:32 @ But I have prayed for you, that your faith fail not. And when you are converted, strengthen your brothers.

mkjv@Luke:22:33 @ And he said to Him, Lord, I am ready to go with You, both into prison and into death.

mkjv@Luke:22:34 @ And He said, I say to you, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day before you shall deny knowing Me three times.

mkjv@Luke:22:35 @ And He said to them, When I sent you without purse and wallet and sandals, did you lack anything? And they said, Nothing.

mkjv@Luke:22:36 @ And He said to them, But now, he who has a purse, let him take [it], and likewise [his] wallet. And he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one.

mkjv@Luke:22:37 @ For I say to you that this which is written must yet be accomplished in Me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors; for the things concerning Me have an end.

mkjv@Luke:22:38 @ And they said, Lord, behold, here [are] two swords. And He said to them, It is enough.

mkjv@Luke:22:39 @ And going out, according to [His] custom, He went to the Mount of Olives. And His disciples also followed Him.

mkjv@Luke:22:40 @ And when He was at the place, He said to them, Pray that you do not enter into temptation.

mkjv@Luke:22:41 @ And He was withdrawn from them about a stone's throw. And He kneeled down and prayed,

mkjv@Luke:22:42 @ saying, Father, if You are willing, remove this cup from Me. Yet not My will, but Yours be done.

mkjv@Luke:22:43 @ And an angel appeared to Him from Heaven, strengthening Him.

mkjv@Luke:22:44 @ And being in an agony He prayed more earnestly. And His sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

mkjv@Luke:22:45 @ And when He rose up from prayer and had come to His disciples, He found them sleeping because of sorrow.

mkjv@Luke:22:46 @ And [He] said to them, Why do you sleep? Rise and pray lest you enter into temptation.

mkjv@Luke:22:47 @ And [as] He [was] yet speaking, behold a crowd! And he who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, went before them. And he drew near Jesus to kiss Him.

mkjv@Luke:22:48 @ But Jesus said to him, Judas, do you betray the Son of man with a kiss?

mkjv@Luke:22:49 @ And those around Him seeing what was about to occur, [they] said to him, Lord, shall we strike with the sword?

mkjv@Luke:22:50 @ And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.

mkjv@Luke:22:51 @ And Jesus answered and said, Let [it] go until now. And touching his ear, He healed him.

mkjv@Luke:22:52 @ And Jesus said to the chief priests and commanders of the temple, and the elders, who had come to Him, Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and staves?

mkjv@Luke:22:53 @ When I was with you in the temple daily, you did not stretch out your hand on Me. But this is your hour, and the authority of the darkness.

mkjv@Luke:22:54 @ And laying hold on Him, they led [Him] away and brought Him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off.

mkjv@Luke:22:55 @ And lighting a fire in [the] middle of the court, and they sitting down, Peter sat in their midst.

mkjv@Luke:22:56 @ But a certain slave-girl saw him as he sat by the fire and earnestly looked on him and said, This [man] was with him also.

mkjv@Luke:22:57 @ And he denied Him, saying, Woman, I do not know Him.

mkjv@Luke:22:58 @ And after a little while another saw him and said, You also are of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not!

mkjv@Luke:22:59 @ And about an hour afterward, another confidently affirmed, saying, Truly this one was also with him, for he is a Galilean.

mkjv@Luke:22:60 @ And Peter said, Man, I do not know what you say. And immediately, while he still spoke, the cock crowed.

mkjv@Luke:22:61 @ And the Lord turned and looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, Before the cock crows, you shall deny Me three times.

mkjv@Luke:22:62 @ And Peter went out and wept bitterly.

mkjv@Luke:22:63 @ And the men who held Jesus mocked Him, beating [Him].

mkjv@Luke:22:64 @ And blindfolding Him, [they] struck Him on His face. And they asked Him, saying, Prophesy! Who is it who struck you?

mkjv@Luke:22:65 @ And they spoke many other things blasphemously against Him.

mkjv@Luke:22:66 @ And when day came, the body of elders of the people, and the chief priests and the scribes, came together. And they led Him to the sanhedrin, saying,

mkjv@Luke:22:67 @ Are you the Christ? Tell us. And He said to them, If I tell you, you will not believe.

mkjv@Luke:22:68 @ Also if I ask [you], you will not answer Me nor let Me go.

mkjv@Luke:22:69 @ From now on the Son of man shall sit at the right [hand] of the power of God.

mkjv@Luke:22:70 @ And they all said, Are you then the Son of God? And He said to them, You say [it], because I AM!

mkjv@Luke:22:71 @ And they said, What need do we have for any witness? For we ourselves have heard it from his own mouth.

mkjv@Luke:23:1 @ And rising up, all the multitude of them led Him before Pilate.

mkjv@Luke:23:2 @ And they began to accuse Him, saying, We have found this one perverting the nation and forbidding them to give tribute to Caesar, saying himself to be a king, Christ.

mkjv@Luke:23:3 @ And Pilate asked Him, saying, Are you the king of the Jews? And He answered him and said, You say [it].

mkjv@Luke:23:4 @ And Pilate said to the chief priests and [to] the people, I find no fault in this man.

mkjv@Luke:23:5 @ And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee to this place.

mkjv@Luke:23:6 @ And hearing Galilee, Pilate asked if the man is a Galilean.

mkjv@Luke:23:7 @ And knowing that He belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself was also at Jerusalem at that time.

mkjv@Luke:23:8 @ And seeing Jesus, Herod greatly rejoiced, for he had desired to see Him [for] a long [time], because he had heard many things about Him. And he hoped to see some miracle done by Him.

mkjv@Luke:23:9 @ And he questioned Him in many words, but He answered him nothing.

mkjv@Luke:23:10 @ And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused Him.

mkjv@Luke:23:11 @ And humiliating Him with his guardsmen, and mocking [Him] by putting luxurious clothing around Him, Herod sent Him again to Pilate.

mkjv@Luke:23:12 @ And that same day Pilate and Herod became friends with one another, for before they were at enmity [between] themselves.

mkjv@Luke:23:13 @ And when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,

mkjv@Luke:23:14 @ Pilate said to them, You have brought this Man to me as perverting the people. And behold, having examined [Him] before you, I have found no fault in this Man [regarding those things] of which you accuse Him;

mkjv@Luke:23:15 @ no, nor even Herod, for I sent you to him, and lo, nothing worthy of death has been done by Him.

mkjv@Luke:23:16 @ Therefore I will chastise Him and release [Him].

mkjv@Luke:23:17 @ (For it was necessary for him to release one to them at the feast.)

mkjv@Luke:23:18 @ And they all cried out at once, saying, Away with this One! And release to us Barabbas

mkjv@Luke:23:19 @ (who was thrown into prison because of a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder).

mkjv@Luke:23:20 @ And Pilate, willing to release Jesus, spoke again to them.

mkjv@Luke:23:21 @ But they cried, saying, Crucify! Crucify Him!

mkjv@Luke:23:22 @ And he said to them the third [time], Why? What evil has He done? I have found no cause of death in Him, therefore I will chastise Him and let [Him] go.

mkjv@Luke:23:23 @ But they pressed [on him], with loud voices, requesting that He might be crucified. And their voices and those of the chief priests prevailed.

mkjv@Luke:23:24 @ And Pilate gave judgment that their request should be granted.

mkjv@Luke:23:25 @ And he released to them [the one] who had been thrown into prison for sedition and murder, for whom they had asked. But he delivered up Jesus to their will.

mkjv@Luke:23:26 @ And as they led Him away, they laid hold on one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country. And they laid the cross on him, that he might carry [it] after Jesus.

mkjv@Luke:23:27 @ And a great multitude of people were following Him, and of women who also were bewailing and lamenting Him.

mkjv@Luke:23:28 @ But turning to them, Jesus said, Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

mkjv@Luke:23:29 @ For behold, the days are coming in which they shall say, Blessed [are] the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts which did not suckle.

mkjv@Luke:23:30 @ And they shall begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us! And to the hills, Cover us!

mkjv@Luke:23:31 @ For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?

mkjv@Luke:23:32 @ And two others, two criminals, were led with Him to be put to death.

mkjv@Luke:23:33 @ And when they came to the place which is called Calvary, they crucified Him and the criminals there, one on [the] right, and one on [the] left.

mkjv@Luke:23:34 @ And Jesus said, Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do. And parting His clothing, they cast lots.

mkjv@Luke:23:35 @ And the people stood watching. And also the rulers with them, scoffing, saying, He saved others, let Him save Himself, if He is the Christ, the chosen of God.

mkjv@Luke:23:36 @ And coming near, the soldiers also mocked Him, and offering Him sour wine,

mkjv@Luke:23:37 @ and saying, If You are the king of the Jews, save Yourself.

mkjv@Luke:23:38 @ And an inscription also was written over Him in letters of Greek and Latin and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

mkjv@Luke:23:39 @ And one of the hanged criminals blasphemed Him, saying, If you are Christ, save Yourself and us.

mkjv@Luke:23:40 @ But answering, the other rebuked him, saying, Do you not fear God, since [you] are in the same condemnation.

mkjv@Luke:23:41 @ And we indeed justly so, for we receive the due reward of our deeds, but this Man has done nothing amiss.

mkjv@Luke:23:42 @ And he said to Jesus, Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.

mkjv@Luke:23:43 @ And Jesus said to him, Truly I say to you, Today you shall be with Me in Paradise.

mkjv@Luke:23:44 @ And it was about [the] sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until [the] ninth hour.

mkjv@Luke:23:45 @ And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in the middle.

mkjv@Luke:23:46 @ And crying with a loud voice, Jesus said, Father, into Your hands I commit My spirit. And when He had said this, He breathed out the spirit.

mkjv@Luke:23:47 @ And when the centurion saw what had been done, he glorified God, saying, Truly this Man was righteous.

mkjv@Luke:23:48 @ And all the crowd arriving together at this sight, beholding the things happening, struck their breasts and returned.

mkjv@Luke:23:49 @ And all those known to Him stood at a distance; and [the] women, those accompanying Him from Galilee, [were] seeing these things.

mkjv@Luke:23:50 @ And behold, a man named Joseph, a councillor, a good man and a just one,

mkjv@Luke:23:51 @ this one was not assenting to their counsel and deed. [He was] from Arimathea, a city of the Jews; and he also himself waited for the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:23:52 @ This [man] went to Pilate and begged the body of Jesus.

mkjv@Luke:23:53 @ And he took it down and wrapped it in linen. And he laid it in a tomb that had been cut in the stone, in which no man had before been laid.

mkjv@Luke:23:54 @ And that day was the Preparation, and the sabbath drew on.

mkjv@Luke:23:55 @ And also women [were] following, who were accompanying Him out of Galilee, who watched the tomb, and how His body was placed.

mkjv@Luke:23:56 @ And they returned and [they] prepared spices and ointment. And they rested [on] the sabbath day according to the commandment.

mkjv@Luke:24:1 @ And [on] the first of the sabbaths, while still very early, they came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.

mkjv@Luke:24:2 @ But they found the stone rolled away from the tomb.

mkjv@Luke:24:3 @ And going in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Luke:24:4 @ And as they were much perplexed about it, it happened that, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments.

mkjv@Luke:24:5 @ And as they were afraid, and bowed [their] faces down to the earth, they said to them, Why do you seek the living among the dead?

mkjv@Luke:24:6 @ He is not here, but has risen. Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee,

mkjv@Luke:24:7 @ saying, The Son of man must be delivered into [the] hands of sinful men and be crucified, and the third day rise again?

mkjv@Luke:24:8 @ And they remembered His words

mkjv@Luke:24:9 @ and returned from the tomb and told all these things to the Eleven and to the rest.

mkjv@Luke:24:10 @ It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary [the mother] of James, and the rest with them, who told these things to the apostles.

mkjv@Luke:24:11 @ And their words seemed to them like foolishness, and they did not believe them.

mkjv@Luke:24:12 @ And Peter arose and ran to the tomb, and stooping down he saw the linens lying alone. And he went away wondering to himself at what had happened.

mkjv@Luke:24:13 @ And behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, it being [about] sixty stadia from Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:24:14 @ And they talked to each other of all these things which had happened.

mkjv@Luke:24:15 @ And while they talked and reasoned, it happened that Jesus Himself drew near and went with them.

mkjv@Luke:24:16 @ But their eyes were held [so that] they could not know Him.

mkjv@Luke:24:17 @ And He said to them, What words [are] these that you have with one another [as] you walk, and are so sad?

mkjv@Luke:24:18 @ And one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answered and said to Him, [Are] you only a stranger in Jerusalem and have not known the things which have occurred there in these days?

mkjv@Luke:24:19 @ And He said to them, What things? And they said to Him, The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a man, a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

mkjv@Luke:24:20 @ and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to [the] judgment of death, and have crucified Him.

mkjv@Luke:24:21 @ But we had trusted that He was the One who was about to redeem Israel. And besides all this, today is the third day since these things were done.

mkjv@Luke:24:22 @ Yes, and also some of our women astounded us, having been early at the tomb;

mkjv@Luke:24:23 @ and when they did not find His body, [they] came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that He was alive.

mkjv@Luke:24:24 @ And some of those with us went to the tomb and found [it] even as the women had said. But they did not see Him.

mkjv@Luke:24:25 @ And He said to them, O fools and slow of heart to believe all things that the prophets spoke!

mkjv@Luke:24:26 @ Was it not necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and to enter into His glory?

mkjv@Luke:24:27 @ And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, He expounded to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.

mkjv@Luke:24:28 @ And they drew near the village where they were going. And He appeared to be going further.

mkjv@Luke:24:29 @ But they constrained Him, saying, Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is far spent. And He went in to stay with them.

mkjv@Luke:24:30 @ And it happened [as] He reclined with them, taking the loaf, He blessed [it], and breaking it, He gave to them.

mkjv@Luke:24:31 @ And their eyes were opened, and they knew Him. And He became invisible to them.

mkjv@Luke:24:32 @ And they said to one another, Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us by the way and while He opened the Scriptures to us?

mkjv@Luke:24:33 @ And they rose up the same hour and returned to Jerusalem and found assembled the Eleven and those with them.

mkjv@Luke:24:34 @ And they said, the Lord has indeed risen, and has appeared to Simon.

mkjv@Luke:24:35 @ And in the way they related the things happening, and how He had been known by them in breaking of the loaf.

mkjv@Luke:24:36 @ And as they spoke this, Jesus Himself stood in their midst, and said to them, Peace to you!

mkjv@Luke:24:37 @ But they were terrified and filled with fear, for they thought they saw a spirit.

mkjv@Luke:24:38 @ And He said to them, Why are you troubled, and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?

mkjv@Luke:24:39 @ Behold My hands and My feet, that I am He! Handle Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see Me have.

mkjv@Luke:24:40 @ And when He had spoken this, He showed them [His] hands and feet.

mkjv@Luke:24:41 @ And while they still did not believe for joy, and wondered, He said to them, Have you any food here?

mkjv@Luke:24:42 @ And they handed to Him a piece of a broiled fish and of a honeycomb.

mkjv@Luke:24:43 @ And He took [it] and ate before them.

mkjv@Luke:24:44 @ And He said to them, These [are] the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the law of Moses and in the Prophets and [in] the Psalms about Me.

mkjv@Luke:24:45 @ And He opened their mind to understand the Scriptures.

mkjv@Luke:24:46 @ And He said to them, So it is written, and so it behoved Christ to suffer and to rise from [the] dead the third day,

mkjv@Luke:24:47 @ and that repentance and remission of sins should be proclaimed in His name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:24:48 @ And you are witnesses of these things.

mkjv@Luke:24:49 @ And behold, I send the promise of My father on you. But you sit in the city of Jerusalem until you are clothed with power from on high.

mkjv@Luke:24:50 @ And He led them out as far as Bethany. And lifting up His hands, He blessed them.

mkjv@Luke:24:51 @ And it happened as He blessed them, He withdrew from them and was carried up into Heaven.

mkjv@Luke:24:52 @ And worshiping Him, they returned to Jerusalem with great joy.

mkjv@Luke:24:53 @ And they were continually in the temple, praising and blessing God. Amen.

mkjv@John:1:1 @ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

mkjv@John:1:2 @ He was in [the] beginning with God.

mkjv@John:1:3 @ All things came into being through Him, and without Him not even one [thing] came into being that has come into being.

mkjv@John:1:4 @ In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.

mkjv@John:1:5 @ And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overtake it.

mkjv@John:1:6 @ There was a man sent from God; his name [was] John.

mkjv@John:1:7 @ This one came as a witness, to bear witness concerning the Light, so that all might believe through him.

mkjv@John:1:8 @ He was not that Light, but [was sent] to bear witness of that Light.

mkjv@John:1:9 @ He was the true Light; [He] enlightens every man coming into the world.

mkjv@John:1:10 @ He was in the world, and the world came into being through Him, and the world did not know Him.

mkjv@John:1:11 @ He came to [His] own, and [His] own received Him not.

mkjv@John:1:12 @ But as many as received Him, He gave to them authority to become the children of God, to those who believe on His name,

mkjv@John:1:13 @ who were born, not of bloods, nor of [the] will of [the] flesh, nor of [the] will of man, but [were born] of God.

mkjv@John:1:14 @ And the Word became flesh, and tabernacled among us. And we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of [the] Father, full of grace and of truth.

mkjv@John:1:15 @ John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, This was [He] of whom I spoke: He who comes after me has been before me, for He was preceding me.

mkjv@John:1:16 @ And out of His fullness we all have received, and grace for grace.

mkjv@John:1:17 @ For the law came through Moses, [but] grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

mkjv@John:1:18 @ No one has seen God at any time; the Only-begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared [Him].

mkjv@John:1:19 @ And this is the witness of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who are you?

mkjv@John:1:20 @ And he confessed and did not deny, but confessed, I am not the Christ.

mkjv@John:1:21 @ And they asked him, What then? Are you Elijah? And he says, I am not. Are you that prophet? And he answered, No.

mkjv@John:1:22 @ Then they said to him, Who are you so that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do you say of yourself?

mkjv@John:1:23 @ He said, I [am] the voice of one crying in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the Lord, as the prophet Isaiah said.

mkjv@John:1:24 @ And they who were sent were from the Pharisees.

mkjv@John:1:25 @ And they asked him and said, Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor that Prophet?

mkjv@John:1:26 @ John answered them, saying, I baptize with water, but One stands among you whom you do not know.

mkjv@John:1:27 @ He it is who, coming after me, who has been before me; of whom I am not worthy to loosen the thong of His sandal.

mkjv@John:1:28 @ These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

mkjv@John:1:29 @ The next day John sees Jesus coming to him and says, Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

mkjv@John:1:30 @ This is He of whom I said, After me comes a Man who has been before me, for He preceded me.

mkjv@John:1:31 @ And I did not know Him, but that He be revealed to Israel, therefore I have come baptizing with water.

mkjv@John:1:32 @ And John bore record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from Heaven like a dove, and He abode on Him.

mkjv@John:1:33 @ And I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water, that One said to me, Upon whom you shall see the Spirit descending, and remaining upon Him, He is the One who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.

mkjv@John:1:34 @ And I saw and bore record that this is the Son of God.

mkjv@John:1:35 @ Again, the next day afterward, John stood with two of his disciples.

mkjv@John:1:36 @ And looking upon Jesus as He walked, he says, Behold the Lamb of God!

mkjv@John:1:37 @ And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.

mkjv@John:1:38 @ Then Jesus turned and saw them following and said to them, What do you seek? They said to Him, Rabbi (which is called, being translated, Teacher), where do you live?

mkjv@John:1:39 @ He says to them, Come and see. They came and saw where He lived, and stayed with Him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

mkjv@John:1:40 @ One of the two who heard John and followed Him was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

mkjv@John:1:41 @ He first found [his] own brother Simon and said to him, We have found the Messiah (which is, being translated, the Christ).

mkjv@John:1:42 @ And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus saw him, He said, You are Simon the son of Jonah; you shall be called Cephas (which translated is, A stone).

mkjv@John:1:43 @ The day after, Jesus desired to go forth into Galilee. And He found Philip and said to him, Follow Me.

mkjv@John:1:44 @ Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

mkjv@John:1:45 @ Philip found Nathanael and said to him, We have found Him of whom Moses wrote in the law and the prophets, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

mkjv@John:1:46 @ And Nathanael said to him, Can there be any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip said to him, Come and see.

mkjv@John:1:47 @ Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him and said of him, Behold an Israelite indeed in whom is no guile!

mkjv@John:1:48 @ Nathanael said to Him, From where do You know me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.

mkjv@John:1:49 @ Nathanael answered and said to Him, Rabbi, You are the Son of God. You are the King of Israel!

mkjv@John:1:50 @ Jesus answered and said to him, Because I said to you, I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You shall see greater [things] than these.

mkjv@John:1:51 @ And He said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Hereafter you shall see Heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

mkjv@John:2:1 @ And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee. And the mother of Jesus was there.

mkjv@John:2:2 @ And Jesus and His disciples were both invited to the marriage.

mkjv@John:2:3 @ And when they lacked wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, They have no wine.

mkjv@John:2:4 @ Jesus said to her, Woman, what do I have to do with you? My hour has not yet come.

mkjv@John:2:5 @ His mother said to the servants, Whatever He says to you, do [it].

mkjv@John:2:6 @ And there were six stone waterpots there, according to the purification of the Jews, each containing two or three measures.

mkjv@John:2:7 @ Jesus said to them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to [the] brim.

mkjv@John:2:8 @ And He said to them, Now draw out and carry it to the master of the feast. And they carried [it].

mkjv@John:2:9 @ When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water which was made wine (and did not know where it was from, but the servants who drew the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom.

mkjv@John:2:10 @ And [he] said to him, Every man at the beginning sets forth good wine, and when men have drunk well, then that which is worse. You have kept the good wine until now.

mkjv@John:2:11 @ This beginning of miracles Jesus did in Cana of Galilee. And [it] revealed His glory. And His disciples believed on Him.

mkjv@John:2:12 @ After this He went down to Capernaum, He and His mother and His brothers and His disciples. And they did not stay there many days.

mkjv@John:2:13 @ And the Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

mkjv@John:2:14 @ And He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the money-changers sitting.

mkjv@John:2:15 @ And when He had made a scourge of small cords, He drove them all out of the temple, also the sheep and the oxen. And He poured out the money-changers' money and overthrew the tables.

mkjv@John:2:16 @ And He said to those who sold doves, Take these things away from here. Do not make My Father's house a house of merchandise.

mkjv@John:2:17 @ And His disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of Your house has eaten Me up.

mkjv@John:2:18 @ Then the Jews answered and said to Him, What sign do you show us, since you do these things?

mkjv@John:2:19 @ Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up.

mkjv@John:2:20 @ Then the Jews said, This temple was forty-six years building, and will you rear it up in three days?

mkjv@John:2:21 @ But He spoke of the temple of His body.

mkjv@John:2:22 @ Therefore when He had risen from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this to them, and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said.

mkjv@John:2:23 @ And as He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, at the feast, many believed in His name when they saw the miracles which He did.

mkjv@John:2:24 @ But Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because He knew all

mkjv@John:2:25 @ and did not need that anyone should testify of man. For He knew what was in man.

mkjv@John:3:1 @ And there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.

mkjv@John:3:2 @ He came to Jesus by night and said to Him, Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God; for no [man] can do these miracles which you do unless God is with him.

mkjv@John:3:3 @ Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a man is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

mkjv@John:3:4 @ Nicodemus said to Him, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second [time] into his mother's womb and be born?

mkjv@John:3:5 @ Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a man is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

mkjv@John:3:6 @ That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

mkjv@John:3:7 @ Do not marvel that I said to you, You must be born again.

mkjv@John:3:8 @ The Spirit breathes where He desires, and you hear His voice, but you do not know from where He comes, and where He goes; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit.

mkjv@John:3:9 @ Nicodemus answered and said to Him, How can these things be?

mkjv@John:3:10 @ Jesus answered and said to him, Are you the teacher of Israel and do not know these things?

mkjv@John:3:11 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, We speak what we know and testify what we have seen. And you do not receive our witness.

mkjv@John:3:12 @ If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how shall you believe if I tell you heavenly things?

mkjv@John:3:13 @ And no one has ascended up to Heaven except He who came down from Heaven, the Son of man who is in Heaven.

mkjv@John:3:14 @ But even as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up,

mkjv@John:3:15 @ so that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

mkjv@John:3:16 @ For God so loved the world that He gave His only-begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

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

mkjv@John:3:18 @ He who believes on Him is not condemned, but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.

mkjv@John:3:19 @ And this is the condemnation, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than the Light, because their deeds were evil.

mkjv@John:3:20 @ For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light, lest his deeds should be exposed.

mkjv@John:3:21 @ But he who practices truth comes to the Light so that his works may be revealed, that they exist, having been worked in God.

mkjv@John:3:22 @ After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea. And [He] stayed there with them and baptized.

mkjv@John:3:23 @ And John was also baptizing in Enon near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were baptized.

mkjv@John:3:24 @ For John had not yet been cast into prison.

mkjv@John:3:25 @ Then a question from John's disciples arose with the Jews about purification.

mkjv@John:3:26 @ And they came to John and said to him, Rabbi, He who was with you beyond Jordan, to whom you bore witness, behold, He baptizes, and all come to Him!

mkjv@John:3:27 @ And John answered and said, A man can receive nothing unless it is given to him from Heaven.

mkjv@John:3:28 @ You yourselves bear witness to me that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before Him.

mkjv@John:3:29 @ He who has the bride is [the] bridegroom, but the friend of the bridegroom who stands and hears him rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Then my joy is fulfilled.

mkjv@John:3:30 @ He must increase, but I [must] decrease.

mkjv@John:3:31 @ He who comes from above is above all; he who is from the earth is earthly and speaks from the earth. He who comes from Heaven is above all,

mkjv@John:3:32 @ and what He has seen and heard, that He testifies, and no one receives His testimony.

mkjv@John:3:33 @ He who has received His testimony has set his seal to this, that God is true.

mkjv@John:3:34 @ For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

mkjv@John:3:35 @ The Father loves the Son and has given all things into His hand.

mkjv@John:3:36 @ He who believes on the Son has everlasting life, and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides upon him.

mkjv@John:4:1 @ Therefore when the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John

mkjv@John:4:2 @ (though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but His disciples),

mkjv@John:4:3 @ He left Judea and went away again into Galilee.

mkjv@John:4:4 @ And it was necessary for Him to go through Samaria,

mkjv@John:4:5 @ Then He came to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

mkjv@John:4:6 @ And Jacob's well was there. Jesus, therefore, being wearied with [His] journey, sat thus upon the well. [It] was about [the] sixth hour.

mkjv@John:4:7 @ A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, Give me to drink.

mkjv@John:4:8 @ (For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.)

mkjv@John:4:9 @ Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, How do you, being a Jew, ask a drink of me, who am a woman of Samaria? For the Jews do not associate with Samaritans.

mkjv@John:4:10 @ Jesus answered and said to her, If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that says to you, Give Me to drink, you would have asked of Him, and He would have given you living water.

mkjv@John:4:11 @ The woman said to Him, Sir, you have no vessel, and the well is deep. From where then do you have that living water?

mkjv@John:4:12 @ Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, and his children and his cattle?

mkjv@John:4:13 @ Jesus answered and said to her, Whoever drinks of this water shall thirst again,

mkjv@John:4:14 @ but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst, but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

mkjv@John:4:15 @ The woman said to Him, Sir, give me this water, so that I may not thirst nor come here to draw.

mkjv@John:4:16 @ Jesus said to her, Go, call your husband and come here.

mkjv@John:4:17 @ The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said to her, You have well said, I have no husband

mkjv@John:4:18 @ for you have had five husbands, and [he] whom you now have is not your husband. In that you spoke truly.

mkjv@John:4:19 @ The woman said to Him, Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.

mkjv@John:4:20 @ Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

mkjv@John:4:21 @ Jesus said to her, Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you shall neither worship the Father in this mountain nor yet at Jerusalem.

mkjv@John:4:22 @ You worship what you do not know, we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews.

mkjv@John:4:23 @ But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to worship Him.

mkjv@John:4:24 @ God [is] a spirit, and they who worship Him must worship in spirit and in truth.

mkjv@John:4:25 @ The woman said to Him, I know that Messiah is coming, who is called Christ. When He has come, He will tell us all things.

mkjv@John:4:26 @ Jesus said to her, I AM, the One] speaking to you.

mkjv@John:4:27 @ And upon this His disciples came and marveled that He talked with the woman. However, no one said, What do You seek, or why do You talk with her?

mkjv@John:4:28 @ The woman then left her waterpot and went into the city and said to the men,

mkjv@John:4:29 @ Come see a man who told me all things that I ever did. Is this One] not the Christ?

mkjv@John:4:30 @ And they went out of the city and came to Him.

mkjv@John:4:31 @ In the meantime His disciples were asking Him, saying, Master, eat.

mkjv@John:4:32 @ But He said to them, I have food to eat which you do not know.

mkjv@John:4:33 @ Therefore the disciples said to one another, No one brought Him [anything] to eat?

mkjv@John:4:34 @ Jesus said to them, My food is to do the will of [Him] who sent Me and to finish His work.

mkjv@John:4:35 @ Do you not say, It is] yet four months, and the harvest comes? Behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes and look on the fields, for they are white to harvest already.

mkjv@John:4:36 @ And he who reaps receives wages and gathers fruit to life eternal, so that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.

mkjv@John:4:37 @ And in this is the saying true, One sows and another reaps.

mkjv@John:4:38 @ I sent you to reap that on which you bestowed no labor. Other men labored, and you have entered into their labor.

mkjv@John:4:39 @ And many of the Samaritans of that city believed upon Him because of the saying of the woman, who testified, He told me all that I ever did.

mkjv@John:4:40 @ Then as the Samaritans had come to Him, they begged Him that He would stay with them. And He stayed there two days.

mkjv@John:4:41 @ And many more believed because of His own word.

mkjv@John:4:42 @ And they said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of your saying, for we have heard [Him] ourselves and know that this is truly the Christ, the Savior of the world.

mkjv@John:4:43 @ And after two days He departed from there and went into Galilee.

mkjv@John:4:44 @ For Jesus Himself testified that a prophet has no honor in [his] own native-place.

mkjv@John:4:45 @ Then when He had come into Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all the things that He did at Jerusalem at the feast; for they also went to the feast.

mkjv@John:4:46 @ Then Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee, where He made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.

mkjv@John:4:47 @ When He heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and begged Him that He would come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

mkjv@John:4:48 @ Then Jesus said to him, Unless you see signs and wonders you will not believe.

mkjv@John:4:49 @ The nobleman said to Him, Sir, come down before my child dies.

mkjv@John:4:50 @ Jesus said to him, Go, your son lives. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken to him, and he went away.

mkjv@John:4:51 @ And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told [him], saying, Your son lives.

mkjv@John:4:52 @ Then he asked of them the hour when he began to get better. And they said to him, Yesterday [at the] seventh hour the fever left him.

mkjv@John:4:53 @ So the father knew that [it was] at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, Your son lives. And he himself believed, and his whole house.

mkjv@John:4:54 @ This [is] the second miracle Jesus did, when He had come out of Judea into Galilee.

mkjv@John:5:1 @ After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

mkjv@John:5:2 @ Now there is a pool at the Sheep Gate at Jerusalem, which [is] called in Hebrew Bethesda, having five porches.

mkjv@John:5:3 @ In these lay a great multitude of those who were sick, of blind, lame, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.

mkjv@John:5:4 @ For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool and troubled the water. Then whoever first stepped in after the troubling of the water was made whole of whatever disease he had.

mkjv@John:5:5 @ And a certain man was there, who had an infirmity thirty-eight years.

mkjv@John:5:6 @ When Jesus saw him lying, and knowing that he had spent much time, He said to him, Do you desire to be made whole?

mkjv@John:5:7 @ The infirm man answered Him, Sir, when the water is troubled, I have no one to put me into the pool. But while I am coming, another steps down before me.

mkjv@John:5:8 @ Jesus says to him, Rise, take up your bed and walk.

mkjv@John:5:9 @ And immediately the man was made whole and took up his bed and walked. And it was a sabbath on that day.

mkjv@John:5:10 @ Therefore the Jews said to him who had been healed, It is the sabbath. It is not lawful for you to take up the bed.

mkjv@John:5:11 @ He answered them, He who made me whole said to me, Take up your bed and walk.

mkjv@John:5:12 @ Then they asked him, Who is the man who said to you, Take up your bed and walk?

mkjv@John:5:13 @ And he did not know Him who had cured him, for Jesus had moved away, a crowd being in the place.

mkjv@John:5:14 @ Afterward Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, Behold, you are made whole. Sin no more lest a worse thing come to you.

mkjv@John:5:15 @ The man departed and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him whole.

mkjv@John:5:16 @ And therefore the Jews persecuted Jesus and sought to kill Him, because He had done these things on the sabbath day.

mkjv@John:5:17 @ But Jesus answered them, My Father works until now, and I work.

mkjv@John:5:18 @ Then, because of this, the Jews sought the more to kill Him, because He not only had broken the sabbath, but also said that God was His father, making Himself equal with God.

mkjv@John:5:19 @ Then Jesus answered and said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself but what He sees the Father do. For whatever things He does, these also the Son does likewise.

mkjv@John:5:20 @ For the Father loves the Son and shows Him all the things that He Himself does. And He will show Him greater works than these, so that you may marvel.

mkjv@John:5:21 @ For as the Father raises the dead and makes alive, even so the Son of man makes alive whomever He wills.

mkjv@John:5:22 @ For the Father judges no man, but has committed all judgment to the Son,

mkjv@John:5:23 @ so that all should honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

mkjv@John:5:24 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes on Him who sent Me has everlasting life and shall not come into condemnation, but has passed from death to life.

mkjv@John:5:25 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, the hour is coming and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they who hear shall live.

mkjv@John:5:26 @ For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has given to the Son to have life within Himself,

mkjv@John:5:27 @ and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is [the] Son of man.

mkjv@John:5:28 @ Do not marvel at this, for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves shall hear His voice,

mkjv@John:5:29 @ and shall come forth, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have practiced evil to the resurrection of condemnation.

mkjv@John:5:30 @ I can do nothing of My own self. As I hear, I judge, and My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of [the] Father who has sent Me.

mkjv@John:5:31 @ If I bear witness of Myself, My witness is not true.

mkjv@John:5:32 @ There is another who bears witness of Me, and I know that the witness which He witnesses of Me is true.

mkjv@John:5:33 @ You sent to John, and he bore witness to the truth.

mkjv@John:5:34 @ But I do not receive testimony from man, but these things I say so that you might be saved.

mkjv@John:5:35 @ He was a burning and shining light, and you were willing for a time to rejoice in his light.

mkjv@John:5:36 @ But I have greater witness than that of John, for the works which the Father has given Me that I should finish them, the works which I do themselves witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me.

mkjv@John:5:37 @ And He sending Me, the Father Himself, has borne witness of Me. Neither have you heard His voice at any time nor seen His shape.

mkjv@John:5:38 @ And you do not have His Word abiding in you, for you do not believe Him whom He has sent.

mkjv@John:5:39 @ You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life. And they are the ones witnessing of Me,

mkjv@John:5:40 @ and you will not come to Me that you might have life.

mkjv@John:5:41 @ I do not receive honor from men.

mkjv@John:5:42 @ But I know you, that you do not have the love of God in you.

mkjv@John:5:43 @ I have come in My Father's name, and you do not receive Me. If another shall come in [his] own name, him you will receive.

mkjv@John:5:44 @ How can you believe, [you who] receive honor from one another and do not seek the honor that [comes] from God only?

mkjv@John:5:45 @ Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; there is [one] who accuses you, Moses, in whom you trust.

mkjv@John:5:46 @ For if you had believed Moses, you would have believed Me, for he wrote of Me.

mkjv@John:5:47 @ But if you do not believe his writings, how shall you believe My words?

mkjv@John:6:1 @ After these things Jesus went over the Sea of Galilee, [the Sea] of Tiberias.

mkjv@John:6:2 @ And a great multitude followed Him, because they saw His miracles which He did on the sick ones.

mkjv@John:6:3 @ And Jesus went up into a mountain and sat there with His disciples.

mkjv@John:6:4 @ And the Passover was near, a feast of the Jews.

mkjv@John:6:5 @ Then Jesus lifted up [His] eyes and saw a great crowd come to Him. He said to Philip, Where shall we buy loaves so that these may eat?

mkjv@John:6:6 @ And He said this to test him, for He Himself knew what He would do.

mkjv@John:6:7 @ Philip answered Him, Loaves for two hundred denarii are not enough for them, that every one may take a little.

mkjv@John:6:8 @ One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,

mkjv@John:6:9 @ There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are these among so many?

mkjv@John:6:10 @ And Jesus said, Make the men recline. And there was much grass in the place. So the men reclined, about five thousand in number.

mkjv@John:6:11 @ And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks, He distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those who had reclined; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wanted.

mkjv@John:6:12 @ And when they were filled, He said to His disciples, Gather up the fragments left over, so that nothing is lost.

mkjv@John:6:13 @ Therefore they gathered and filled twelve handbaskets with fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over to those who had eaten.

mkjv@John:6:14 @ Then seeing the miracle that Jesus did, those men said, This is truly the Prophet, the [One] coming into the world.

mkjv@John:6:15 @ Therefore when Jesus perceived that they would come and take Him by force, that they might make Him a king, Jesus withdrew again to the mountain alone [by] Himself.

mkjv@John:6:16 @ And when evening had come, the disciples went down to the sea

mkjv@John:6:17 @ and entered into a boat, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus had not come to them.

mkjv@John:6:18 @ And the sea rose up because of a great wind that blew.

mkjv@John:6:19 @ Then having rowed about twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near the ship. And they were afraid.

mkjv@John:6:20 @ But He said to them, I AM! Do not be afraid.

mkjv@John:6:21 @ Then they willingly received Him into the boat. And immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.

mkjv@John:6:22 @ The following day, the crowd standing on the other side of the sea had seen that there was no other little boat there except that one into which His disciples had entered, and when they saw that Jesus did not go with His disciples into the little boat, but [that] His disciples had gone away alone,

mkjv@John:6:23 @ (however, other boats from Tiberias came near the place where they ate the loaves, the Lord having given thanks),

mkjv@John:6:24 @ therefore, when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they themselves also entered into the boats and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus.

mkjv@John:6:25 @ And when they had found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, Rabbi, when did you come here?

mkjv@John:6:26 @ Jesus answered them and said, Truly, truly, I say to you, You seek Me not because you saw the miracles, but because you ate the loaves and were filled.

mkjv@John:6:27 @ Do not labor [for] the food that perishes, but for that food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of man will give you. For God the Father sealed Him.

mkjv@John:6:28 @ Then they said to Him, What shall we do that we might work the works of God?

mkjv@John:6:29 @ Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, that you believe on [Him] whom He has sent.

mkjv@John:6:30 @ Therefore they said to Him, What sign do you show then, so that we may see and believe you? What do you work?

mkjv@John:6:31 @ Our fathers ate the manna in the desert, as it is written, He gave them bread from Heaven to eat.

mkjv@John:6:32 @ Then Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Moses did not give you that bread from Heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from Heaven.

mkjv@John:6:33 @ For the bread of God is He who comes down from Heaven and gives life to the world.

mkjv@John:6:34 @ Then they said to him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

mkjv@John:6:35 @ And Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes on Me shall never thirst.

mkjv@John:6:36 @ But I said to you that you also have seen Me and do not believe.

mkjv@John:6:37 @ All that the Father gives Me shall come to Me, and the [one] who comes to Me I will in no way cast out.

mkjv@John:6:38 @ For I came down from Heaven, not to do My own will but the will of Him who sent Me.

mkjv@John:6:39 @ And this is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all which He has given Me I should lose nothing but should raise it up again at the last day.

mkjv@John:6:40 @ And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes on Him should have everlasting life. And I will raise him up at the last day.

mkjv@John:6:41 @ Then the Jews murmured about Him, because He said, I am the bread which came down from Heaven.

mkjv@John:6:42 @ And they said, Is this not Jesus the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How now does this One say, I have come down from Heaven?

mkjv@John:6:43 @ Jesus therefore answered and said to them, Do not murmur with one another.

mkjv@John:6:44 @ No one can come to Me unless the Father who has sent Me draw him, and I will raise him up at the last day.

mkjv@John:6:45 @ It is written in the prophets, And they shall all be taught of God. Therefore everyone who hears and learns from the Father comes to Me.

mkjv@John:6:46 @ Not that anyone has seen the Father, except He who is from God, He has seen the Father.

mkjv@John:6:47 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes on Me has everlasting life.

mkjv@John:6:48 @ I am the Bread of life.

mkjv@John:6:49 @ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and died.

mkjv@John:6:50 @ This is the Bread which comes down from Heaven, so that a man may eat of it and not die.

mkjv@John:6:51 @ I am the Living Bread which came down from Heaven. If anyone eats of this Bread, he shall live forever. And truly the bread that I will give is My flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

mkjv@John:6:52 @ Then the Jews argued with one another, saying, How can this man give us [his] flesh to eat?

mkjv@John:6:53 @ Then Jesus says to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink His blood, you do not have life in yourselves.

mkjv@John:6:54 @ Whoever partakes of My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

mkjv@John:6:55 @ For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed.

mkjv@John:6:56 @ He who partakes of My flesh and drinks My blood dwells in Me, and I in him.

mkjv@John:6:57 @ As the living Father has sent Me, and I live through the Father, so he who partakes of Me, even he shall live by Me.

mkjv@John:6:58 @ This is the Bread which came down from Heaven, not as your fathers ate the manna, and died; he who partakes of this Bread shall live forever.

mkjv@John:6:59 @ He said these things in the synagogue as He taught in Capernaum.

mkjv@John:6:60 @ Then when they had heard, many of His disciples said, This is a hard saying, who can hear it?

mkjv@John:6:61 @ But knowing in Himself that His disciples murmured about it, Jesus said to them, Does this offend you?

mkjv@John:6:62 @ Then [what] if you should see the Son of man going up where He was before?

mkjv@John:6:63 @ It is the Spirit that makes alive, the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit and are life.

mkjv@John:6:64 @ But there are some of you who do not believe. For Jesus knew from [the] beginning who they were who did not believe, and who is the one] betraying Him.

mkjv@John:6:65 @ And He said, Because of this I said to you that no one can come to Me unless it was given to him from My Father.

mkjv@John:6:66 @ From this [time] many of His disciples went back into the things behind, and walked no more with Him.

mkjv@John:6:67 @ Then Jesus said to the Twelve, Do you also wish to go away?

mkjv@John:6:68 @ Then Simon Peter answered Him, Lord, to whom shall we go? You have [the] words of eternal life.

mkjv@John:6:69 @ And we have believed and have known that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.

mkjv@John:6:70 @ Jesus answered them, Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? And one [of] you is a devil?

mkjv@John:6:71 @ But he spoke [of] Judas Iscariot, [the son] of Simon; for it was he who was about to betray Him, being one of the Twelve.

mkjv@John:7:1 @ After these things Jesus walked in Galilee, for He did not desire to walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill Him.

mkjv@John:7:2 @ And the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was near.

mkjv@John:7:3 @ Therefore His brothers said to Him, Move away from here and go into Judea, so that Your disciples also may see the works that You do.

mkjv@John:7:4 @ For no one does anything in secret, while he himself seeks to be in public. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world.

mkjv@John:7:5 @ For His brothers did not believe in Him.

mkjv@John:7:6 @ Then Jesus said to them, My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.

mkjv@John:7:7 @ The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I testify of it, that its works are evil.

mkjv@John:7:8 @ You go up to this feast; I am not yet going up to this feast; for My time is not yet fulfilled.

mkjv@John:7:9 @ And having said these things to them, He remained in Galilee.

mkjv@John:7:10 @ But when His brothers had gone up, then He also went up to the feast, not openly, but as in secret.

mkjv@John:7:11 @ Then the Jews sought Him at the feast and said, Where is He?

mkjv@John:7:12 @ And there was much murmuring among the crowd concerning Him, for some said, He is a good man; others said, No, but he deceives the crowd.

mkjv@John:7:13 @ However, no one spoke openly of Him, because of the fear of the Jews.

mkjv@John:7:14 @ Now about the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

mkjv@John:7:15 @ And the Jews marveled, saying, How does this man know letters, not being taught?

mkjv@John:7:16 @ Jesus answered them and said, My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me.

mkjv@John:7:17 @ If anyone desires to do His will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it is of God, or I speak from Myself.

mkjv@John:7:18 @ He who speaks of himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of Him who sent Him is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him.

mkjv@John:7:19 @ Did not Moses give you the law? And [yet] not one of you keeps the law! Why do you seek to kill Me?

mkjv@John:7:20 @ The crowd answered and said, You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?

mkjv@John:7:21 @ Jesus answered and said to them, I have done one work, and you all marvel.

mkjv@John:7:22 @ Because of this Moses gave you circumcision (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers,) and you circumcise a man on the sabbath day.

mkjv@John:7:23 @ If a man receives circumcision on the sabbath day so that the law of Moses should not be broken, are you angry at Me because I have made a man entirely sound on the sabbath day?

mkjv@John:7:24 @ Do not judge according to sight, but judge righteous judgment.

mkjv@John:7:25 @ Then some of those from Jerusalem said, Is this not the one they seek to kill?

mkjv@John:7:26 @ But lo, he speaks publicly, and they say nothing to him. Perhaps the rulers truly know that this is the Christ indeed?

mkjv@John:7:27 @ However, we know this one, from where he is; but when Christ comes, no one knows from where He is.

mkjv@John:7:28 @ Then Jesus cried in the temple as He taught, saying, You both know Me, and you know from where I come. And I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know.

mkjv@John:7:29 @ But I know Him, for I am from Him, and He has sent Me.

mkjv@John:7:30 @ Then they sought to seize Him, but no one laid [a] hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.

mkjv@John:7:31 @ And many of the crowd believed on Him, and said, When the Christ comes, will He do more miracles than these which this One has done?

mkjv@John:7:32 @ The Pharisees heard that the crowd murmured such things concerning Him. And the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to seize Him.

mkjv@John:7:33 @ Then Jesus said to them, Yet a little while I am with you, and [then] I go to Him who sent Me.

mkjv@John:7:34 @ You shall seek Me and shall not find [Me]. And where I am, you cannot come.

mkjv@John:7:35 @ Then the Jews said among themselves, Where is he about to go that we shall not find him? Is he about to go to the Dispersion of the Greeks, and to teach the Greeks?

mkjv@John:7:36 @ What saying is this that He said, You shall seek Me and shall not find [Me], and where I am, you cannot come?

mkjv@John:7:37 @ And in the last day of the great feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.

mkjv@John:7:38 @ He who believes on Me, as the Scripture has said, Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

mkjv@John:7:39 @ (But He spoke this about the Spirit, which they who believed on Him should receive; for [the] Holy Spirit was not yet [given], because Jesus was not yet glorified.)

mkjv@John:7:40 @ Then when they heard the Word, many of the people said, Truly this is the Prophet.

mkjv@John:7:41 @ Others said, This is the Christ. But others said, Does the Christ come out of Galilee?

mkjv@John:7:42 @ Has the Scripture not said that Christ comes from the seed of David and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?

mkjv@John:7:43 @ So a division occurred in the crowd because of Him.

mkjv@John:7:44 @ And some of them desired to seize Him, but no one laid hands on Him.

mkjv@John:7:45 @ Then the officers came to the chief priests and Pharisees. And they said to them, Why have you not brought him?

mkjv@John:7:46 @ The officers answered, Never did any man speak as does this Man.

mkjv@John:7:47 @ Then the Pharisees answered them, Also, have you not been deceived?

mkjv@John:7:48 @ Is it not true that] not any of the rulers or of the Pharisees have believed into him?

mkjv@John:7:49 @ But this crowd, not knowing the law, is cursed.

mkjv@John:7:50 @ Nicodemus said to them, (he who came to Jesus [by] night, being one of them),

mkjv@John:7:51 @ Does our law judge the Man before it hears Him and knows what He does?

mkjv@John:7:52 @ They answered and said to him, Are you also from Galilee? Search the scriptures and see that a prophet has not been raised out of Galilee.

mkjv@John:7:53 @ And they each went to his own house.

mkjv@John:8:1 @ But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

mkjv@John:8:2 @ And early in the morning He came again into the temple, and all the people came to Him. And He sat down and taught them.

mkjv@John:8:3 @ And the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman taken in adultery. And standing her in the midst,

mkjv@John:8:4 @ they said to Him, Teacher, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.

mkjv@John:8:5 @ Now Moses in the law commanded us that such should be stoned. You, then, what do you say?

mkjv@John:8:6 @ They said this, tempting Him so that they might have [reason] to accuse Him. But bending down, Jesus wrote on the ground with [His] finger, not appearing [to hear].

mkjv@John:8:7 @ But as they continued to ask Him, He lifted Himself up and said to them, He who is without sin among you, let him cast the first stone at her.

mkjv@John:8:8 @ And again bending down, He wrote on the ground.

mkjv@John:8:9 @ And hearing, and being convicted by conscience, they went out one by one, beginning at the oldest, until the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

mkjv@John:8:10 @ And bending back up, and seeing no one but the woman, Jesus said to her, Woman, where are the ones who accused you? Did not one give judgment against you?

mkjv@John:8:11 @ And she said, No one, Lord. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I give judgment. Go, and sin no more.

mkjv@John:8:12 @ Then Jesus spoke again to them, saying, I am the Light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

mkjv@John:8:13 @ Therefore the Pharisees said to Him, You bear record concerning yourself; your witness is not true.

mkjv@John:8:14 @ Jesus answered and said to them, Though I bear record concerning Myself, My witness is true. For I know from where I came, and where I go. But you do not know from where I came, and where I go.

mkjv@John:8:15 @ You judge after the flesh, I judge no one.

mkjv@John:8:16 @ And yet if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I and [the] Father who sent Me.

mkjv@John:8:17 @ It is also written in your law that the testimony of two men is true.

mkjv@John:8:18 @ I am one who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness concerning Me.

mkjv@John:8:19 @ Then they said to Him, Where is your father? Jesus said to them, You neither know Me nor My Father. If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also.

mkjv@John:8:20 @ Jesus spoke these words in the treasury, as He taught in the temple. And no man laid hands upon Him, for His hour had not yet come.

mkjv@John:8:21 @ Then Jesus said again to them, I go away, and you shall seek Me and shall die in your sins. Where I go, you cannot come.

mkjv@John:8:22 @ Then the Jews said, Will he kill himself? Because he says, Where I go you cannot come.

mkjv@John:8:23 @ And He said to them, You are from beneath; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.

mkjv@John:8:24 @ Therefore I said to you that you shall die in your sins, for if you do not believe that I AM, you shall die in your sins.

mkjv@John:8:25 @ Then they said to Him, Who are you? And Jesus said to them, Even [the same] which I also say to you.

mkjv@John:8:26 @ I have many things to say and to judge of you, but He who sent Me is true, and I speak to the world those things what I heard of Him.

mkjv@John:8:27 @ They did not understand that He spoke to them [of] the Father.

mkjv@John:8:28 @ Then Jesus said to them, When you have lifted up the Son of man, then you shall know that I AM, and that I do nothing of Myself, but as My Father has taught Me, I speak these things.

mkjv@John:8:29 @ And He who sent Me is with Me. The Father has not left Me alone, for I always do those things which please Him.

mkjv@John:8:30 @ [As] He spoke these words, many believed upon Him.

mkjv@John:8:31 @ Then Jesus said to the Jews who believed on Him, If you continue in My Word, you are My disciples indeed.

mkjv@John:8:32 @ And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

mkjv@John:8:33 @ They answered Him, We are Abraham's seed and were never in bondage to anyone. How do you say, You will be made free?

mkjv@John:8:34 @ Jesus answered them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Whoever practices sin is the slave of sin.

mkjv@John:8:35 @ And the slave does not abide in the house forever, [but] the Son abides forever.

mkjv@John:8:36 @ Therefore if the Son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.

mkjv@John:8:37 @ I know that you are Abraham's seed, but you seek to kill Me because My Word has no place in you.

mkjv@John:8:38 @ I speak what I have seen with My Father, and you, then, do what you have seen with your father.

mkjv@John:8:39 @ They answered and said to Him, Abraham is our father. Jesus answered them, If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham.

mkjv@John:8:40 @ But now you seek to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth which I have heard beside God; this Abraham did not do.

mkjv@John:8:41 @ You do the deeds of your father. Then they said to Him, We are not born of fornication; we have one father, [even] God.

mkjv@John:8:42 @ Jesus said to them, If God were your father, you would love Me, for I went forth and came from God; for I did not come of Myself, but He sent Me.

mkjv@John:8:43 @ Why do you not know My speech? Because you cannot hear My word.

mkjv@John:8:44 @ You are of the Devil as father, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from [the] beginning, and did not abide in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it.

mkjv@John:8:45 @ And because I tell [you] the truth, you do not believe Me.

mkjv@John:8:46 @ Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do you not believe Me?

mkjv@John:8:47 @ He who is of God hears God's words. Therefore you do not hear [them] because you are not of God.

mkjv@John:8:48 @ Then the Jews answered and said to Him, Do we not say well that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?

mkjv@John:8:49 @ Jesus answered, I do not have a demon, but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.

mkjv@John:8:50 @ And I do not seek My own glory, but there is One who seeks and judges.

mkjv@John:8:51 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, If a man keeps My Word, he shall never see death.

mkjv@John:8:52 @ Then the Jews said to Him, Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham and the prophets are dead, and you say, If a man keeps my Word, he shall never taste of death.

mkjv@John:8:53 @ Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? And the prophets are dead; whom do you make yourself?

mkjv@John:8:54 @ Jesus answered, If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing; it is My Father who glorifies Me, of whom you say that He is your God.

mkjv@John:8:55 @ Yet you have not known Him, but I know Him. And if I should say I do not know Him, I would be a liar like you. But I know Him and I keep His Word.

mkjv@John:8:56 @ Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and He saw and was glad.

mkjv@John:8:57 @ Then the Jews said to Him, You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?

mkjv@John:8:58 @ Jesus said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Before Abraham came into being, I AM!

mkjv@John:8:59 @ Then they took up stones to throw at Him. But Jesus hid Himself and went forth out of the temple, going through [the] midst of them, and passed on by.

mkjv@John:9:1 @ And passing by, He saw a man who was blind from birth.

mkjv@John:9:2 @ And His disciples asked Him, saying, Master, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?

mkjv@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered, Neither has this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God might be revealed in him.

mkjv@John:9:4 @ I must work the works of Him who sent Me, while it is day. Night comes when no man can work.

mkjv@John:9:5 @ As long as I am in the world, I am [the] Light of the world.

mkjv@John:9:6 @ And when He had spoken these things, He spat on the ground and made clay from the spittle. And He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.

mkjv@John:9:7 @ And He said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam (which translated is Sent). Therefore he went and washed and came seeing.

mkjv@John:9:8 @ Then the neighbors and those who had seen him before, that he was blind, said, Is this not he who was sitting and begging?

mkjv@John:9:9 @ Some said, This is he. Others [said], He is like him. He said, I am he.

mkjv@John:9:10 @ Then they said to him, How were your eyes opened?

mkjv@John:9:11 @ He answered and said, A man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and said to me, Go to the pool of Siloam and wash. And going and washing, I received sight.

mkjv@John:9:12 @ Then they said to him, Where is he? He said, I do not know.

mkjv@John:9:13 @ They brought him who once was blind to the Pharisees.

mkjv@John:9:14 @ And it was a sabbath when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.

mkjv@John:9:15 @ Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said to them, He put clay upon my eyes, and I washed, and I see.

mkjv@John:9:16 @ Therefore some of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God, because he does not keep the sabbath. Others said, How can a man, a sinner, do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

mkjv@John:9:17 @ They said to the blind man again, What do you say about him, for he has opened your eyes? He said, He is a prophet.

mkjv@John:9:18 @ But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him having received sight.

mkjv@John:9:19 @ And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, whom you say was born blind? How then does he now see?

mkjv@John:9:20 @ His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind.

mkjv@John:9:21 @ But by what means he now sees, we do not know. Or who has opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age, ask him. He will speak for himself.

mkjv@John:9:22 @ His parents spoke these things because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone confessed that He was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

mkjv@John:9:23 @ Therefore his parents said, He is of age, ask him.

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

mkjv@John:9:25 @ He answered and said, Whether He is a sinner, I do not know; one thing I do know, that being blind, now I see.

mkjv@John:9:26 @ Then they said to him again, What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?

mkjv@John:9:27 @ He answered them, I have told you already, and you did not hear. Why do you want to hear [it] again? Do you also desire to be His disciples?

mkjv@John:9:28 @ Then they reviled him and said, You are his disciple, but we are Moses' disciples.

mkjv@John:9:29 @ We know that God spoke to Moses, but we do not know from where this man is.

mkjv@John:9:30 @ The man answered and said to them, Why, this is a marvelous thing, that you do not know from where He is, and He has opened my eyes.

mkjv@John:9:31 @ But we know that God does not hear sinners, but if anyone is God-fearing and does His will, He hears him.

mkjv@John:9:32 @ From everlasting it was not heard that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.

mkjv@John:9:33 @ If this One were not of God, He could do nothing.

mkjv@John:9:34 @ They answered and said to him, You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us? And they cast him out.

mkjv@John:9:35 @ Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and finding him, He said to him, Do you believe on the Son of God?

mkjv@John:9:36 @ And he answered and said, Who is He, Lord, that I might believe on Him?

mkjv@John:9:37 @ And Jesus said to him, You have both seen Him, and it is He who is speaking with you.

mkjv@John:9:38 @ And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshiped Him.

mkjv@John:9:39 @ And Jesus said, I have come into this world for judgment, that they who do not see might see, and that they who see might be made blind.

mkjv@John:9:40 @ And [those] of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, Are we also blind?

mkjv@John:9:41 @ Jesus said to them, If you were blind, you would have no sin. But now you say, We see. Therefore your sin remains.

mkjv@John:10:1 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter into the sheepfold by the door, but going up by another way, that one is a thief and a robber.

mkjv@John:10:2 @ But he who enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

mkjv@John:10:3 @ The doorkeeper opens to him, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls [his] own sheep by name and leads them out.

mkjv@John:10:4 @ And when he puts forth his own sheep, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him. For they know his voice.

mkjv@John:10:5 @ And they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.

mkjv@John:10:6 @ Jesus spoke this parable to them, but they did not understand what it was which He spoke to them.

mkjv@John:10:7 @ Then Jesus said to them again, Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

mkjv@John:10:8 @ All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them.

mkjv@John:10:9 @ I am the door. If anyone enters in by Me, he shall be saved and shall go in and out and find pasture.

mkjv@John:10:10 @ The thief does not come except to steal and to kill and to destroy. I have come so that they might have life, and that they might have [it] more abundantly.

mkjv@John:10:11 @ I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.

mkjv@John:10:12 @ But he who is a hireling and not the shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and runs away. And the wolf catches them and scatters the sheep.

mkjv@John:10:13 @ The hireling flees, because he is a hireling and does not care for the sheep.

mkjv@John:10:14 @ I am the Good Shepherd, and I know those that [are] Mine, and I am known by those who are Mine.

mkjv@John:10:15 @ Even as the Father knows Me, I also know the Father. And I lay down My life for the sheep.

mkjv@John:10:16 @ And I have other sheep who are not of this fold. I must also lead those, and they shall hear My voice, and there shall be one flock, one Shepherd.

mkjv@John:10:17 @ Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life so that I might take it again.

mkjv@John:10:18 @ No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down from Myself. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it again. I have received this commandment from My Father.

mkjv@John:10:19 @ Then a division occurred again among the Jews because of these words.

mkjv@John:10:20 @ And many of them said, He has a demon and is insane. Why do you hear him?

mkjv@John:10:21 @ Others said, These are not words of one who has been possessed by a demon. A demon is not able to open [the] eyes of blind ones.

mkjv@John:10:22 @ And [the Feast] of Dedication took place at Jerusalem, and it was winter.

mkjv@John:10:23 @ And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's Porch.

mkjv@John:10:24 @ Then the Jews encircled Him and said to Him, How long do you make us doubt? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.

mkjv@John:10:25 @ Jesus answered them, I told you and you did not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me.

mkjv@John:10:26 @ But you did not believe because you are not of My sheep. As I said to you,

mkjv@John:10:27 @ My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

mkjv@John:10:28 @ And I give to them eternal life, and they shall never ever perish, and not anyone shall pluck them out of My hand.

mkjv@John:10:29 @ My Father who gave [them] to me is greater than all, and no one is able to pluck [them] out of My Father's hand.

mkjv@John:10:30 @ I and the Father are one!

mkjv@John:10:31 @ Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him.

mkjv@John:10:32 @ Jesus answered them, I have shown you many good works from My Father; for which of these do you stone Me?

mkjv@John:10:33 @ The Jews answered Him, saying, We do not stone you for a good work, but for blasphemy, and because you, being a man, make yourself God.

mkjv@John:10:34 @ Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, You are gods?

mkjv@John:10:35 @ If He called those gods with whom the Word of God was, and the Scripture cannot be broken,

mkjv@John:10:36 @ do you say [of Him] whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, You blaspheme, because I said, I am the Son of God?

mkjv@John:10:37 @ If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me.

mkjv@John:10:38 @ But if I do, though you do not believe Me, believe the works so that you may know and believe that the Father [is] in Me, and I in Him.

mkjv@John:10:39 @ Then they again sought to seize Him, but He went forth out of their hand.

mkjv@John:10:40 @ And He went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John baptized at the first, and He stayed there.

mkjv@John:10:41 @ And many came to Him and said, John indeed did no miracle, but all things that John said concerning this One were true.

mkjv@John:10:42 @ And many believed on Him there.

mkjv@John:11:1 @ And there was a certain sick one, Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

mkjv@John:11:2 @ (And it was [that] Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

mkjv@John:11:3 @ Then his sisters sent to Him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom You love is sick.

mkjv@John:11:4 @ When Jesus heard, He said, This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, so that the Son of God might be glorified by it.

mkjv@John:11:5 @ And Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

mkjv@John:11:6 @ Therefore, when He had heard that he was sick, then indeed He remained two days in the place where He was.

mkjv@John:11:7 @ Then after that He said to the disciples, Let us go into Judea again.

mkjv@John:11:8 @ The disciples said to Him, Rabbi, the Jews lately have sought to stone You, and do You go there again?

mkjv@John:11:9 @ Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble because he sees the light of the world.

mkjv@John:11:10 @ But if anyone walks in the night, he stumbles because there is no light in him.

mkjv@John:11:11 @ He said these things; and after that He said to them, Our friend Lazarus sleeps. But I go so that I may awaken him out of sleep.

mkjv@John:11:12 @ Then His disciples said, Lord, if he sleeps, he will get well.

mkjv@John:11:13 @ But Jesus spoke of his death, but they thought that He had spoken of taking rest in sleep.

mkjv@John:11:14 @ Then Jesus said to them plainly, Lazarus is dead.

mkjv@John:11:15 @ And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, in order that you may believe. But let us go to him.

mkjv@John:11:16 @ Then Thomas (he being called Twin) said to his fellow disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with Him.

mkjv@John:11:17 @ Then when Jesus came, He found him already being held in the tomb four days.

mkjv@John:11:18 @ And Bethany was near Jerusalem, fifteen stadia away.

mkjv@John:11:19 @ And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary in order to comfort them concerning their brother.

mkjv@John:11:20 @ Then when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she met Him. But Mary was sitting in the house.

mkjv@John:11:21 @ Then Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

mkjv@John:11:22 @ But I know that even now, whatever You will ask of God, God will give You.

mkjv@John:11:23 @ Jesus said to her, Your brother shall rise again.

mkjv@John:11:24 @ Martha said to Him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.

mkjv@John:11:25 @ Jesus said to her, I am the Resurrection and the Life! He who believes in Me, though he die, yet he shall live.

mkjv@John:11:26 @ And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?

mkjv@John:11:27 @ She said to Him, Yes, Lord, I have believed that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who has come into the world.

mkjv@John:11:28 @ And saying these things, she went away and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Teacher has come and calls you.

mkjv@John:11:29 @ As soon as she heard, she arose quickly and came to him.

mkjv@John:11:30 @ Now Jesus had not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met Him.

mkjv@John:11:31 @ Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw that Mary rose up hastily and went out, [they] followed her, saying, She is going to the tomb to weep there.

mkjv@John:11:32 @ Then when Mary had come where Jesus was, seeing Him, Mary fell down at His feet, saying to Him, Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

mkjv@John:11:33 @ Then when He saw her weeping, and also the Jews who came with her weeping, Jesus groaned in the spirit and troubled Himself.

mkjv@John:11:34 @ And [He] said, Where have you laid him? They said to Him, Lord, come and see.

mkjv@John:11:35 @ Jesus wept.

mkjv@John:11:36 @ Then the Jews said, Behold how He loved him!

mkjv@John:11:37 @ And some of them said, Was not this Man who opened the eyes of the blind able also to cause that even this one should not have died?

mkjv@John:11:38 @ Then Jesus, groaning in Himself again, came to the tomb. And it was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

mkjv@John:11:39 @ Jesus said, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him who died, said to Him, Lord, by this time he stinks. For it is [the] fourth [day].

mkjv@John:11:40 @ Jesus answered her, Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?

mkjv@John:11:41 @ Then they took away the stone where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up [His] eyes and said, Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.

mkjv@John:11:42 @ And I know that You hear Me always, but because of the people who stand by I said [it], so that they may believe that You have sent Me.

mkjv@John:11:43 @ And saying these things, He cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, Here! Outside!

mkjv@John:11:44 @ And he who had died came out, bound hand and foot with sheets, and his face was bound with a cloth. Jesus said to them, Untie him and let [him] go!

mkjv@John:11:45 @ Then many of the Jews who came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on Him.

mkjv@John:11:46 @ But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.

mkjv@John:11:47 @ Then the chief priests and Pharisees gathered a sanhedrin, and said, What can we do? For this man does many miracles.

mkjv@John:11:48 @ If we let him alone this way, all will believe on him. And the Romans will come and take away both our place and nation.

mkjv@John:11:49 @ And one of them, Caiaphas, being the high priest of that year, said to them, You do not know anything at all,

mkjv@John:11:50 @ nor do you consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation perish.

mkjv@John:11:51 @ And he did not speak this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation;

mkjv@John:11:52 @ and not for that nation only, but also that He should gather together in one the children of God who were scattered abroad.

mkjv@John:11:53 @ Then from that day they took counsel together that they might kill Him.

mkjv@John:11:54 @ Therefore Jesus walked no more openly among the Jews; but He went away from there to a country near the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and continued there with His disciples.

mkjv@John:11:55 @ And the Jews' Passover was near. And many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the Passover in order to purify themselves.

mkjv@John:11:56 @ Then they sought Jesus, and spoke with one another as they stood in the temple, What does it seem to you, that He will not at all come to the feast?

mkjv@John:11:57 @ And all the chief priests and the Pharisees had given commands, that if anyone knew where He was, he should make [it] known so that they might seize Him.

mkjv@John:12:1 @ Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was (who had died, whom He raised from [the] dead).

mkjv@John:12:2 @ Then they made a supper there for Him. And Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those reclining with Him.

mkjv@John:12:3 @ Then Mary took a pound of ointment of pure spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.

mkjv@John:12:4 @ Then said one of His disciples (Judas Iscariot, Simon's [son], who was to betray Him)

mkjv@John:12:5 @ Why was this ointment not sold [for] three hundred denarii and given to [the] poor?

mkjv@John:12:6 @ He said this, not that he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief and held the moneybag and carried the things put [in].

mkjv@John:12:7 @ Then Jesus said, Let her alone. She has kept this for the day of My burial.

mkjv@John:12:8 @ For you have the poor with you always; but you do not always have Me.

mkjv@John:12:9 @ Then a great crowd of the Jews learned that He was there. And they did not come for Jesus' sake only, but also that they might see Lazarus, whom He had raised from [the] dead.

mkjv@John:12:10 @ But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus to death also,

mkjv@John:12:11 @ because many of the Jews went away and believed on Jesus because of him.

mkjv@John:12:12 @ On the next day, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, a great crowd who had come to the Feast

mkjv@John:12:13 @ took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him. And [they] cried, Hosanna! Blessed [is] the King of Israel who comes in [the] name of [the] Lord!

mkjv@John:12:14 @ And finding an ass colt, Jesus sat on it; as it is written,

mkjv@John:12:15 @ Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your King comes sitting on the foal of an ass.

mkjv@John:12:16 @ But His disciples did not know these things at the first. But when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of Him, and [that] they had done these things to Him.

mkjv@John:12:17 @ Then the crowd witnessed, those who were with Him when He called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from [the] dead.

mkjv@John:12:18 @ Because of this the crowd also met Him, because they heard that He had done this miracle.

mkjv@John:12:19 @ Then the Pharisees said among themselves, Do you see how you gain nothing? Behold, the world has gone after Him.

mkjv@John:12:20 @ And there were certain Greeks among those who came up to worship at the Feast.

mkjv@John:12:21 @ Then these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, Sir, we want to see Jesus.

mkjv@John:12:22 @ Philip came and told Andrew. And again Andrew and Philip told Jesus.

mkjv@John:12:23 @ And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour has come that the Son of man should be glorified.

mkjv@John:12:24 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone; but if it dies, it brings forth much fruit.

mkjv@John:12:25 @ He who loves his life shall lose it. And he who hates his life in this world shall keep it to life eternal.

mkjv@John:12:26 @ If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there also My servant shall be. If anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.

mkjv@John:12:27 @ And My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? Father, save Me from this hour? But for this cause I came to this hour.

mkjv@John:12:28 @ Father, glorify Your name! Then there came a voice from the heaven [saying], I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.

mkjv@John:12:29 @ Then the crowd who stood by and heard said that it thundered. Others said, An angel spoke to Him.

mkjv@John:12:30 @ Jesus answered and said, This voice did not come because of Me, but for your sakes.

mkjv@John:12:31 @ Now is [the] judgment of this world. Now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

mkjv@John:12:32 @ And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw all to Myself.

mkjv@John:12:33 @ But He said this, signifying what kind [of] death He was about to die.

mkjv@John:12:34 @ The crowd answered Him, We have heard out of the law that Christ lives forever. How do you say, The Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?

mkjv@John:12:35 @ Then Jesus said to them, Yet a little while the Light is with you. Walk while you have the Light, lest darkness come upon you. For he who walks in darkness does not know where he goes.

mkjv@John:12:36 @ While you have the Light, believe in the Light so that you may become sons of Light. Jesus spoke these things and departed and was hidden from them.

mkjv@John:12:37 @ But [though] He had done so many miracles before them, yet they did not believe on Him,

mkjv@John:12:38 @ so that the saying of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke, Lord, who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?

mkjv@John:12:39 @ Therefore they could not believe, because Isaiah said again,

mkjv@John:12:40 @ He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, so that they should not see with [their] eyes nor understand with [their] heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

mkjv@John:12:41 @ Isaiah said these things when he saw His glory and spoke of Him.

mkjv@John:12:42 @ Still, however, even out of the rulers, many did believe on Him. But because of the Pharisees they did not confess, lest they should be put out of the synagogue;

mkjv@John:12:43 @ for they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God.

mkjv@John:12:44 @ But Jesus cried out and said, He who believes on Me does not believe on Me but on Him who sent Me.

mkjv@John:12:45 @ And he who sees Me sees Him who sent Me.

mkjv@John:12:46 @ I have come [as] a Light into the world, so that whoever believes on Me should not remain in darkness.

mkjv@John:12:47 @ And if any one hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him, for I do not come to judge the world, but to save the world.

mkjv@John:12:48 @ He who rejects Me and does not receive My words has one who judges him; the Word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

mkjv@John:12:49 @ For I have not spoken of Myself, but [the] Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say, and what I should speak.

mkjv@John:12:50 @ And I know that His command is life everlasting. Therefore whatever I speak, even as the Father said to Me, so I speak.

mkjv@John:13:1 @ And before the feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come when He should depart out of this world to the Father, having loved [His] own in the world, He loved them to [the] end.

mkjv@John:13:2 @ And when supper had ended, the Devil now having put into the heart of Judas Iscariot [the son] of Simon to betray Him,

mkjv@John:13:3 @ Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into [His] hands, and that He had come from God and went to God,

mkjv@John:13:4 @ He rose up from supper and laid aside [His] garments. And He took a towel and girded Himself.

mkjv@John:13:5 @ After that He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe [them] with the towel with which He was girded.

mkjv@John:13:6 @ Then He came to Simon Peter. And Peter said to Him, Lord, do You wash my feet?

mkjv@John:13:7 @ Jesus answered and said to him, You do not know what I do now, but you shall know hereafter.

mkjv@John:13:8 @ Peter said to Him, You shall never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, Unless I wash you, you have no part with Me.

mkjv@John:13:9 @ Simon Peter said to Him, Lord, not my feet only, but also [my] hands and head.

mkjv@John:13:10 @ Jesus said to him, He who is bathed has no need except to wash [his] feet, but is clean every whit. And you are clean, but not all.

mkjv@John:13:11 @ For He knew who would betray Him. Therefore He said, You are not all clean.

mkjv@John:13:12 @ So after He had washed their feet and had taken His garments and had reclined again, He said to them, Do you know what I have done to you?

mkjv@John:13:13 @ You call Me the Teacher, and Lord, and you say well, for I AM.

mkjv@John:13:14 @ If then I, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.

mkjv@John:13:15 @ For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.

mkjv@John:13:16 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, A servant is not greater than his master, neither is he who is sent greater than he who sent him.

mkjv@John:13:17 @ If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.

mkjv@John:13:18 @ I do not speak of you all; I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture might be fulfilled, He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.

mkjv@John:13:19 @ From now I tell you before [it] comes, so that when it happens you may believe that I AM.

mkjv@John:13:20 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, He who receives whomever I send receives Me. And he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.

mkjv@John:13:21 @ When Jesus had said this, He was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, Truly, truly, I say to you that one of you shall betray Me.

mkjv@John:13:22 @ Then the disciples looked upon one another, wondering of whom He spoke.

mkjv@John:13:23 @ But there was one of His disciples leaning upon Jesus' bosom, the one whom Jesus loved.

mkjv@John:13:24 @ Simon Peter therefore signaled to him to ask whom it might be of whom He spoke.

mkjv@John:13:25 @ And lying on Jesus' breast, he said to him, Lord, who is it?

mkjv@John:13:26 @ Jesus answered, It is he to whom I shall give the morsel when I have dipped [it]. And dipping the morsel, He gave [it] to Judas Iscariot, the [son] of Simon.

mkjv@John:13:27 @ And after the morsel, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, What you do, do quickly.

mkjv@John:13:28 @ But no one reclining knew for what [reason] He spoke this to him.

mkjv@John:13:29 @ For some thought, because Judas had the moneybag, that Jesus had said to him, Buy what we have need [of] for the feast; or that he should give something to the poor.

mkjv@John:13:30 @ He then, having received the morsel, went out immediately. And it was night.

mkjv@John:13:31 @ Then when he had left, Jesus said, Now the Son of man is glorified, and God is glorified in him.

mkjv@John:13:32 @ If God is glorified in Him, God shall also glorify Him in Himself, and shall immediately glorify Him.

mkjv@John:13:33 @ Little children, I am with you yet a little while. You shall seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, Where I go, you cannot come, so I now say to you.

mkjv@John:13:34 @ I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. As I have loved you, you should also love one another.

mkjv@John:13:35 @ By this all shall know that you are My disciples, if you have love toward one another.

mkjv@John:13:36 @ Simon Peter said to Him, Lord, where do You go? Jesus answered him, Where I go you cannot now follow Me, but you shall follow Me afterward.

mkjv@John:13:37 @ Peter said to Him, Lord, why cannot I follow You now? I will lay down my life for Your sake.

mkjv@John:13:38 @ Jesus answered him, Will you lay down your life for My sake? Truly, truly, I say to you, The cock shall not crow until you have denied Me three times.

mkjv@John:14:1 @ Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in Me.

mkjv@John:14:2 @ In My Father's house are many mansions; if [it were] not [so], I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

mkjv@John:14:3 @ And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, so that where I am, you may be also.

mkjv@John:14:4 @ And where I go you know, and the way you know.

mkjv@John:14:5 @ Thomas said to Him, Lord, we do not know where You go, and how can we know the way?

mkjv@John:14:6 @ Jesus said to him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; no one comes to the Father but by Me.

mkjv@John:14:7 @ If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also. And from now on you know Him and have seen Him.

mkjv@John:14:8 @ Philip said to Him, Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.

mkjv@John:14:9 @ Jesus said to him, Have I been with you such a long time and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father. And how do you say, Show us the Father?

mkjv@John:14:10 @ Do you not believe that I [am] in the Father and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak of Myself, but the Father who dwells in Me, He does the works.

mkjv@John:14:11 @ Believe Me that I [am] in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the very works themselves.

mkjv@John:14:12 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, He who believes on Me, the works that I do he shall do also, and greater [works] than these he shall do, because I go to My Father.

mkjv@John:14:13 @ And whatever you may ask in My name, that I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

mkjv@John:14:14 @ If you ask anything in My name, I will do [it].

mkjv@John:14:15 @ If you love Me, keep My commandments.

mkjv@John:14:16 @ And I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, so that He may be with you forever,

mkjv@John:14:17 @ the Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive because it does not see Him nor know Him. But you know Him, for He dwells with you and shall be in you.

mkjv@John:14:18 @ I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.

mkjv@John:14:19 @ Yet a little [while] and the world does not see Me any more. But you see Me. Because I live, you shall live also.

mkjv@John:14:20 @ At that day you shall know that I [am] in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you.

mkjv@John:14:21 @ He who has My commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves Me. And he who loves Me shall be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will reveal Myself to him.

mkjv@John:14:22 @ Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, Lord, how is it that You will reveal Yourself to us and not to the world?

mkjv@John:14:23 @ Jesus answered and said to him, If a man loves Me, he will keep My Word. And My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him.

mkjv@John:14:24 @ He who does not love Me does not keep My words, and the Word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father's who sent Me.

mkjv@John:14:25 @ I have spoken these things to you, being present with you.

mkjv@John:14:26 @ But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things and bring all things to your remembrance, whatever I have said to you.

mkjv@John:14:27 @ Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

mkjv@John:14:28 @ You have heard how I said to you, I go away and I am coming to you [again]. If you loved Me, you would rejoice because I said, I go to the Father, for My Father is greater than I.

mkjv@John:14:29 @ And now I have told you before [it] happens, so that when it happens you might believe.

mkjv@John:14:30 @ I shall no longer speak many things with you, for the ruler of this world comes, and he has nothing in Me.

mkjv@John:14:31 @ But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father has given Me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go away from here.

mkjv@John:15:1 @ I am the True Vine, and My Father is the Vinedresser.

mkjv@John:15:2 @ Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away. And every one that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bring forth more fruit.

mkjv@John:15:3 @ Now you are clean through the Word which I have spoken to you.

mkjv@John:15:4 @ Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither [can] you unless you abide in Me.

mkjv@John:15:5 @ I am the Vine, you [are] the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

mkjv@John:15:6 @ If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered. And they gather and cast [them] into the fire, and they are burned.

mkjv@John:15:7 @ If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done to you.

mkjv@John:15:8 @ In this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit, so you shall be My disciples.

mkjv@John:15:9 @ As the Father has loved Me, so I have loved you; continue in My love.

mkjv@John:15:10 @ If you keep My commandments, you shall abide in My love, even as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.

mkjv@John:15:11 @ I have spoken these things to you so that My joy might remain in you and your joy might be full.

mkjv@John:15:12 @ This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

mkjv@John:15:13 @ No one has greater love than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

mkjv@John:15:14 @ You are My friends if you do whatever I command you.

mkjv@John:15:15 @ No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master does. But I have called you friends, for all things that I have heard from My Father I have made known to you.

mkjv@John:15:16 @ You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and ordained you that you should go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain; that whatever you shall ask of the Father in My name, He may give it to you.

mkjv@John:15:17 @ These things I command you, that you love one another.

mkjv@John:15:18 @ If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before [it hated] you.

mkjv@John:15:19 @ If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

mkjv@John:15:20 @ Remember the word that I said to you, The servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they have kept My saying, they will also keep yours.

mkjv@John:15:21 @ But all these things they will do to you for My name's sake, because they do not know Him who sent Me.

mkjv@John:15:22 @ If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have had sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.

mkjv@John:15:23 @ He who hates Me hates My Father also.

mkjv@John:15:24 @ If I had not done among them the works which no other did, they would not have had sin. But now they have both seen and hated Me and My Father.

mkjv@John:15:25 @ But that the Word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated Me without a cause.

mkjv@John:15:26 @ And when the Comforter has come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He shall testify of Me.

mkjv@John:15:27 @ And you also shall bear witness, because you have been with Me from [the] beginning.

mkjv@John:16:1 @ I have spoken these things to you so that you should not be offended.

mkjv@John:16:2 @ They shall put you out of [the] synagogue. But an hour is coming that everyone who kills you will think that he bears God service.

mkjv@John:16:3 @ And they will do these things to you because they have not known the Father nor Me.

mkjv@John:16:4 @ But I have told you these things so that when the hour shall come you may remember that I told you of them. And I did not say these things to you at the beginning because I was with you.

mkjv@John:16:5 @ But now I go to Him who sent Me, and none of you asks Me, Where do You go?

mkjv@John:16:6 @ But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart.

mkjv@John:16:7 @ But I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Comforter will not come to you. But if I depart, I will send Him to you.

mkjv@John:16:8 @ And when that One comes, He will convict the world concerning sin, and concerning righteousness, and concerning judgment.

mkjv@John:16:9 @ Concerning sin, because they do not believe on Me;

mkjv@John:16:10 @ concerning righteousness, because I go to My Father and you see Me no more;

mkjv@John:16:11 @ concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.

mkjv@John:16:12 @ I have yet many things to say to you, but you cannot bear [them] now.

mkjv@John:16:13 @ However, when He, the Spirit of Truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth. For He shall not speak of Himself, but whatever He hears, He shall speak. And He will announce to you things to come.

mkjv@John:16:14 @ He will glorify Me, for He will receive of Mine and will announce [it] to you.

mkjv@John:16:15 @ All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and will announce [it] to you.

mkjv@John:16:16 @ A little [while] and you will not see Me; and again a little [while], and you will see Me, because I go to the Father.

mkjv@John:16:17 @ Then His disciples said to one another, What is this that He says to us, A little [while] and you will not see Me, and again a little and you will see Me? And, Because I go to the Father?

mkjv@John:16:18 @ Therefore they said, What is this that He says, A little [while]? We do not know what He is saying.

mkjv@John:16:19 @ Then Jesus knew that they desired to ask Him, and said to them, Do you seek answers with one another concerning this, because I said, A little [while] and you shall not see Me; and again a little while, and you shall see Me?

mkjv@John:16:20 @ Truly, truly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. And you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

mkjv@John:16:21 @ The woman has grief when she bears, because her hour has come. But when she brings forth the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, because of the joy that a man is born into the world.

mkjv@John:16:22 @ And therefore you now have sorrow. But I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you.

mkjv@John:16:23 @ And in that day you shall ask Me nothing. Truly, truly, I say to you, Whatever you shall ask the Father in My name, He will give you.

mkjv@John:16:24 @ Before now you have asked nothing in My name; ask and you shall receive, that your joy may be full.

mkjv@John:16:25 @ I have spoken these things to you in parables, but the time is coming when I shall no more speak to you in parables, but I will show you plainly of the Father.

mkjv@John:16:26 @ At that day you will ask in My name; and I do not say to you that I will pray to the Father for you,

mkjv@John:16:27 @ for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came out from God.

mkjv@John:16:28 @ I came forth from the Father, and have come into the world. Again I leave the world and go to the Father.

mkjv@John:16:29 @ The disciples said to Him, Lo, now You speak plainly and speak no parable.

mkjv@John:16:30 @ Now we know that You know all things and do not need that anyone should ask You. By this we believe that You have come forth from God.

mkjv@John:16:31 @ Jesus answered them, Do you now believe?

mkjv@John:16:32 @ Behold, the hour comes, yea, has now come, that you will be scattered, each man to [his] own things, and you will leave Me alone. And yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.

mkjv@John:16:33 @ I have spoken these things to you so that you might have peace in Me. In the world you shall have tribulation, but be of good cheer. I have overcome the world.

mkjv@John:17:1 @ Jesus spoke these words and lifted up His eyes to Heaven and said, Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son so that Your Son also may glorify You,

mkjv@John:17:2 @ even as You have given Him authority over all flesh so that He should give eternal life to all You have given Him.

mkjv@John:17:3 @ And this is life eternal, that they might know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.

mkjv@John:17:4 @ I have glorified You upon the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do.

mkjv@John:17:5 @ And now Father, glorify Me with Yourself with the glory which I had with You before the world was.

mkjv@John:17:6 @ I have revealed Your name to the men whom You gave to Me out of the world. They were Yours, and You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.

mkjv@John:17:7 @ Now they have known that all things, whatever You have given Me, are from You.

mkjv@John:17:8 @ For I have given to them the words which You gave Me, and they have received [them] and have known surely that I came out from You. And they have believed that You sent Me.

mkjv@John:17:9 @ I pray for them. I do not pray for the world, but for those whom You have given Me, for they are Yours.

mkjv@John:17:10 @ And all Mine are Yours, and Yours [are] Mine; and I am glorified in them.

mkjv@John:17:11 @ And now I am in the world no longer, but these are in the world, and I come to You, Holy Father. Keep them in Your name, those whom You have given Me, so that [they] may be one as We [are].

mkjv@John:17:12 @ While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name. Those that You have given Me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

mkjv@John:17:13 @ And now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world that they might have My joy fulfilled in them.

mkjv@John:17:14 @ I have given them Your Word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

mkjv@John:17:15 @ I do not pray for You to take them out of the world, but for You to keep them from the evil.

mkjv@John:17:16 @ They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

mkjv@John:17:17 @ Sanctify them through Your truth. Your Word is truth.

mkjv@John:17:18 @ As You have sent Me into the world, even so I have sent them into the world.

mkjv@John:17:19 @ And I sanctify Myself for their sakes, so that they also might be sanctified in truth.

mkjv@John:17:20 @ And I do not pray for these alone, but for those also who shall believe on Me through their word,

mkjv@John:17:21 @ that they all may be one, as You, Father, [are] in Me, and I in You, that they also may be one in Us, so that the world may believe that You have sent Me.

mkjv@John:17:22 @ And I have given them the glory which You have given Me, that they may be one, even as We are one,

mkjv@John:17:23 @ I in them, and You in Me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that You have sent Me and have loved them as You have loved Me.

mkjv@John:17:24 @ Father, I desire that [those] whom You have given Me, that they may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me, for You have loved Me before [the] foundation of [the] world.

mkjv@John:17:25 @ O righteous Father, indeed the world has not known You; but I have known You, and these have known that You have sent me.

mkjv@John:17:26 @ And I made known to them Your name, and will make [it] known, so that the love [with] which You have loved Me may be in them, and I in them.

mkjv@John:18:1 @ Having spoken these words, Jesus went out with His disciples over the winter stream Kidron, where there was a garden. He and His disciples entered into it.

mkjv@John:18:2 @ And Judas who betrayed Him also knew the place. For Jesus oftentimes went there with His disciples.

mkjv@John:18:3 @ Then Judas, having received a band and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

mkjv@John:18:4 @ Then Jesus, knowing all things that were coming upon Him, went out and said to them, Whom do you seek?

mkjv@John:18:5 @ They answered Him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus said to them, I AM! And Judas who betrayed Him also stood with them.

mkjv@John:18:6 @ Then as soon as He had said to them, I AM, they went backward and fell to the ground.

mkjv@John:18:7 @ Then He asked them again, Whom do you seek? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.

mkjv@John:18:8 @ Jesus answered, I have told you that I AM. Therefore if you seek Me, let these go away;

mkjv@John:18:9 @ (that the word might be fulfilled which He spoke, [Of] those whom You have given Me, I have lost not one of them).

mkjv@John:18:10 @ Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's servant and cut off his right ear. And the servant's name [was] Malchus.

mkjv@John:18:11 @ Then Jesus said to Peter, Put up your sword into the sheath. The cup which My Father has given Me, shall I not drink it?

mkjv@John:18:12 @ Then the band, and the chiliarch, and under-officers of the Jews together seized Jesus and bound Him.

mkjv@John:18:13 @ And they led Him away to Annas first, for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was the high priest that year.

mkjv@John:18:14 @ And Caiaphas was he who gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

mkjv@John:18:15 @ And Simon Peter and another disciple followed Jesus. That disciple was known to the high priest, and he went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest.

mkjv@John:18:16 @ But Peter stood at the door outside. Then the other disciple went out, the one who was known to the high priest, and spoke to her who kept the door and brought Peter in.

mkjv@John:18:17 @ Then the girl who kept the door said to Peter, Are you not also [one] of this man's disciples? He said, I am not.

mkjv@John:18:18 @ And the servants and officers who had made a fire of coals stood there, for it was cold. And they warmed [themselves]. And Peter stood with them and warmed himself.

mkjv@John:18:19 @ Then the high priest asked Jesus of His disciples and of His teaching.

mkjv@John:18:20 @ Jesus answered him, I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in the synagogue and in the temple, where the Jews always resort, and I have said nothing in secret.

mkjv@John:18:21 @ Why do you ask Me? Ask those who heard me what I have said to them. Behold, they know what I said.

mkjv@John:18:22 @ And when He had spoken this way, one of the officers who stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Do you answer the high priest so?

mkjv@John:18:23 @ Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil; but if well, why do you strike Me?

mkjv@John:18:24 @ Then Annas had sent Him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.

mkjv@John:18:25 @ And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. Then they said to him, Are you not also [one] of his disciples? He denied and said, I am not.

mkjv@John:18:26 @ One of the servants of the high priest, being kinsman to him whose ear Peter cut off, said, Did I not see you in the garden with him?

mkjv@John:18:27 @ Peter then denied again. And immediately a cock crowed.

mkjv@John:18:28 @ Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas into the praetorium. And it was early. And they did not go into the praetorium, that they should not be defiled, and that they might eat the Passover.

mkjv@John:18:29 @ Then Pilate went out to them and said, What charge do you bring against this man?

mkjv@John:18:30 @ They answered and said to him, If he were not an evildoer, then we would not have delivered him up to you.

mkjv@John:18:31 @ Then Pilate said to them, You take him and judge him according to your law. Then the Jews said to him, It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death

mkjv@John:18:32 @ (that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which He spoke signifying what death He was about to die).

mkjv@John:18:33 @ Then Pilate entered into the praetorium again and called Jesus and said to him, Are you the king of the Jews?

mkjv@John:18:34 @ Jesus answered him, Do you say this thing of yourself, or did others say it to you about Me?

mkjv@John:18:35 @ Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered you to me. What have you done?

mkjv@John:18:36 @ Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, then My servants would fight so that I might not be delivered to the Jews. But now My kingdom is not from here.

mkjv@John:18:37 @ Pilate then said to Him, Are you a king then? Jesus answered, You say [it] that I am a king. To this [end] I was born, and for this cause I came into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.

mkjv@John:18:38 @ Pilate said to Him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews and said to them, I find no fault in him.

mkjv@John:18:39 @ But you have a custom that I should release one to you at the Passover. Then do you desire that I release to you the king of the Jews?

mkjv@John:18:40 @ Then they all cried again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas! But Barabbas was a robber.

mkjv@John:19:1 @ Then Pilate therefore took Jesus and flogged [Him].

mkjv@John:19:2 @ And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns and put [it] on His head. And they put a purple robe on Him,

mkjv@John:19:3 @ and said, Hail, King of the Jews! And they struck Him with their hands.

mkjv@John:19:4 @ Then Pilate went out again and said to them, Behold, I bring him out to you so that you may know that I find no fault in him.

mkjv@John:19:5 @ Then Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And [Pilate] said to them, Behold the man!

mkjv@John:19:6 @ Then when the chief priests and under-officers saw Him, they cried out, saying, Crucify! Crucify [Him]! Pilate said to them, You take Him and crucify Him, for I find no fault in him.

mkjv@John:19:7 @ The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

mkjv@John:19:8 @ Then when Pilate heard that saying, he was the more afraid.

mkjv@John:19:9 @ And [he] went again into the praetorium and said to Jesus, Where are you from? But Jesus gave him no answer.

mkjv@John:19:10 @ Then Pilate said to him, Do you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have authority to crucify you, and I have authority to release you?

mkjv@John:19:11 @ Jesus answered, You could have no authority against Me unless it were given to you from above. Therefore he who delivered Me to you has the greater sin.

mkjv@John:19:12 @ From this [time], Pilate sought to release Him. But the Jews cried out, saying, If you let this man go, you are not Caesar's friend. Whoever makes himself a king speaks against Caesar.

mkjv@John:19:13 @ Then when Pilate heard that saying, he brought Jesus out and sat down in the judgment seat at a place called the Pavement (but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha).

mkjv@John:19:14 @ And it was [the] preparation of the Passover, and about [the] sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, Behold your king!

mkjv@John:19:15 @ But they cried out, Away with [him]! Away with [him]! Crucify him! Pilate said to them, Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.

mkjv@John:19:16 @ Then he delivered Him up to them that He might be crucified. And they took Jesus and led [Him] away.

mkjv@John:19:17 @ And bearing His cross, He went out to a place called, [The Place] of a Skull (which is called in the Hebrew, Golgotha)

mkjv@John:19:18 @ where they crucified Him, and two others with Him, one on either side, and Jesus in the middle.

mkjv@John:19:19 @ And Pilate wrote a title and put [it] on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

mkjv@John:19:20 @ Then many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin.

mkjv@John:19:21 @ Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, Do not write, the king of the Jews, but that he said, I am king of the Jews.

mkjv@John:19:22 @ Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.

mkjv@John:19:23 @ Then when they had crucified Jesus, the soldiers took His garments and made four parts, one part to each soldier; and also [His] tunic. And the tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

mkjv@John:19:24 @ Therefore they said among themselves, Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to find whose it shall be (that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says, They parted my garments among them, and for] my garment they cast lots). Therefore the soldiers did these things.

mkjv@John:19:25 @ And His mother stood by the cross of Jesus, and His mother's sister, Mary the [wife] of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.

mkjv@John:19:26 @ Then when Jesus saw [His] mother and the disciple whom He loved standing by, He said to His mother, Woman, behold your son!

mkjv@John:19:27 @ Then He said to the disciple, Behold your mother! And from that hour that disciple took her into [his] own [home].

mkjv@John:19:28 @ After this, knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, Jesus said, I thirst.

mkjv@John:19:29 @ Then a vessel full of vinegar was set. And they filled a sponge with sour wine and put [it] upon hyssop, and put [it] to His mouth.

mkjv@John:19:30 @ Then when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, It is finished! And He bowed [His] head and gave up the spirit.

mkjv@John:19:31 @ Then the Jews, because it was Preparation, begged Pilate that their legs might be broken, and [that] they might be taken away, so that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the sabbath. For that sabbath was a high day.

mkjv@John:19:32 @ Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with Him.

mkjv@John:19:33 @ But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs.

mkjv@John:19:34 @ But one of the soldiers pierced His side [with] a lance, and instantly there came out blood and water.

mkjv@John:19:35 @ And he who saw bore record, and his record is true. And he knows that he speaks true, so that you might believe.

mkjv@John:19:36 @ For these things were done so that the Scripture might be fulfilled, Not a bone of Him shall be broken.

mkjv@John:19:37 @ And again another Scripture says, They shall look upon [Him] whom they pierced.

mkjv@John:19:38 @ And after these things, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus (but secretly for fear of the Jews) begged of Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate gave permission. Then he came and took the body of Jesus.

mkjv@John:19:39 @ And Nicodemus also came, who at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds.

mkjv@John:19:40 @ Then they took the body of Jesus and wound it with linens with the spices, as is the custom of the Jews to bury.

mkjv@John:19:41 @ And in the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one yet had been placed.

mkjv@John:19:42 @ There, then, because of the Preparation of the Jews, because the tomb was near, they laid Jesus.

mkjv@John:20:1 @ The first of the sabbaths Mary Magdalene came early to the tomb, darkness still being [on it], and [she] saw the stone taken away from the tomb.

mkjv@John:20:2 @ Then she ran and came to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them, They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid Him.

mkjv@John:20:3 @ Therefore Peter and that other disciple went forth and came to the tomb.

mkjv@John:20:4 @ So they both ran together. And the other disciple outran Peter and came first to the tomb.

mkjv@John:20:5 @ And stooping down he saw the linens lying, yet he did not go in.

mkjv@John:20:6 @ Then Simon Peter came following him and went into the tomb. And he saw the linens lying [there].

mkjv@John:20:7 @ And the grave-cloth that was on His head [was] not lying with the linens, but was wrapped up in one place by itself.

mkjv@John:20:8 @ Therefore, then, that other disciple also went in, the [one] who came first to the tomb. And he saw and believed.

mkjv@John:20:9 @ For as yet they did not know the Scripture that He must rise again from [the] dead.

mkjv@John:20:10 @ Then the disciples went away again to themselves.

mkjv@John:20:11 @ But Mary stood outside of the tomb, weeping. And as she wept, she stooped down into the tomb.

mkjv@John:20:12 @ And [she] saw two angels in white sitting there, the one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.

mkjv@John:20:13 @ And they said to her, Woman, why do you weep? She said to them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him.

mkjv@John:20:14 @ And when she had said this, she turned backward and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus.

mkjv@John:20:15 @ Jesus said to her, Woman, why do you weep? Whom do you seek? Supposing Him to be the gardener, she said to Him, Sir, if you have carried Him away from here, tell me where you have laid Him and I will take Him away.

mkjv@John:20:16 @ Jesus said to her, Mary! She turned herself and said to Him, Rabboni! (which is to say, Master!)

mkjv@John:20:17 @ Jesus said to her, Do not touch Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father. But go to My brothers and say to them, I ascend to My Father and Your Father, and [to] My God and your God.

mkjv@John:20:18 @ Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord and that He had spoken these things to her.

mkjv@John:20:19 @ Then the same day at evening, being the first of the sabbaths, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, Peace to you!

mkjv@John:20:20 @ And when He had said this, He showed them [His] hands and His side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord.

mkjv@John:20:21 @ Then Jesus said to them again, Peace to you. As [My] Father has sent Me, even so I send you.

mkjv@John:20:22 @ And when He had said this, He breathed on [them] and said to them, Receive [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@John:20:23 @ Of whomever sins you remit, they are remitted to them. Of whomever [sins] you retain, they are retained.

mkjv@John:20:24 @ But Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came.

mkjv@John:20:25 @ The other disciples therefore said to him, We have seen the Lord. But he said to them, Unless I shall see the print of the nails in His hands, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into His side, I will not believe.

mkjv@John:20:26 @ And after eight days the disciples were inside again, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst and said, Peace to you!

mkjv@John:20:27 @ Then He said to Thomas, Reach your finger here and behold My hands; and reach your hand here and thrust [it] into My side; and do not be unbelieving, but believing.

mkjv@John:20:28 @ And Thomas answered and said to Him, My Lord and my God!

mkjv@John:20:29 @ Jesus said to him, Thomas, because you have seen Me you have believed. Blessed [are] they who have not seen and have believed.

mkjv@John:20:30 @ And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book.

mkjv@John:20:31 @ But these are written so that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you might have life in His name.

mkjv@John:21:1 @ After these things Jesus revealed Himself again to the disciples at the Sea of Tiberias. And He revealed [Himself] this way:

mkjv@John:21:2 @ Simon Peter, and Thomas called [the] Twin, and Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, and the [sons] of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples were together.

mkjv@John:21:3 @ Simon Peter said to them, I am going out to fish. They said to him, We will go with you also. They went out and entered into a boat immediately. And that night they caught nothing.

mkjv@John:21:4 @ But when the morning had come, Jesus stood on the shore. But the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.

mkjv@John:21:5 @ Then Jesus said to them, Children, do you have anything to eat? They answered Him, No.

mkjv@John:21:6 @ And He said to them, Cast the net on the right side of the boat and you will find. Therefore they cast, and now they no longer had [the] strength to draw, from the multitude of fish.

mkjv@John:21:7 @ Then that disciple whom Jesus loves said to Peter, It is the Lord! Then hearing that it is the Lord, Simon Peter girded on [his] coat (for he was naked), and cast himself into the sea.

mkjv@John:21:8 @ And the other disciples came in a little boat (for they were not far from land, only about two hundred cubits), dragging the net of fish.

mkjv@John:21:9 @ Then when they went up on the land, they saw a fire of coals there, and a fish lying on [it], and bread.

mkjv@John:21:10 @ And Jesus said to them, Bring from the fish which you have now caught.

mkjv@John:21:11 @ Simon Peter went up and drew the net to land, full of big fish, a hundred and fifty-three. And [though] there were so many, the net was not torn.

mkjv@John:21:12 @ Jesus said to them, Come, break fast. And none of the disciples dared to ask Him, Who are You? knowing that it was the Lord.

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

mkjv@John:21:14 @ This [is] now the three times Jesus was revealed to His disciples, [He] being risen from [the] dead.

mkjv@John:21:15 @ Then when they broke fast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, [son] of Jonah, do you love Me more than these? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You. He said to him, Feed My lambs.

mkjv@John:21:16 @ He said to him the second time, Simon, [son] of Jonah, do you love Me? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You. He said to him, Feed My sheep.

mkjv@John:21:17 @ He said to him the third time, Simon, [son] of Jonah, do you love Me? Peter was grieved because He said to him a third [time], Do you love Me? And he said to Him, Lord, You know all things, You know that I love You. Jesus said to him, Feed My sheep.

mkjv@John:21:18 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, When you were young, you girded yourself and walked where you wished. But when you grow old, you shall stretch forth your hands and another shall gird you and carry [you] where [you] do not wish.

mkjv@John:21:19 @ He spoke this signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He said to him, Follow Me.

mkjv@John:21:20 @ Then Peter, turning around, saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following (the one who also leaned on His breast at supper, and said, Lord, who is he who betrays You?)

mkjv@John:21:21 @ Seeing him, Peter said to Jesus, Lord, and what [of] this one?

mkjv@John:21:22 @ Jesus said to him, If I desire that he remain until I come, what [is that] to you? You follow Me.

mkjv@John:21:23 @ Then this saying went abroad among the brothers, that that disciple should not die. Yet Jesus did not say to him, He shall not die, but, If I desire that he remain until I come, what [is that] to you?

mkjv@John:21:24 @ This is the disciple who testifies of these things and wrote these things. And we know that his testimony is true.

mkjv@John:21:25 @ And there are also many things, whatever Jesus did, which, if they should be written singly, I suppose the world itself [could] not contain the books that would be written. Amen.

mkjv@Acts:1:1 @ Truly, O Theophilus, I made the first report as to all things that Jesus began both to do and teach

mkjv@Acts:1:2 @ until the day He was taken up, having given directions to the apostles whom He chose, through [the] Holy Spirit;

mkjv@Acts:1:3 @ to whom He also presented Himself living after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them through forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Acts:1:4 @ And having met with [them], He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to await the promise of the Father which you heard from Me.

mkjv@Acts:1:5 @ For John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized in [the] Holy Spirit not many days from now.

mkjv@Acts:1:6 @ Then, indeed, these coming together, they asked Him, saying, Lord, do You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?

mkjv@Acts:1:7 @ And He said to them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father has put in His own authority.

mkjv@Acts:1:8 @ But you shall receive power, the Holy Spirit coming upon you. And you shall be witnesses to Me both in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and to [the] end of the earth.

mkjv@Acts:1:9 @ And saying these things, [as] they watched, He was taken up. And a cloud received Him out of their sight.

mkjv@Acts:1:10 @ And while they were looking intently into the heaven, He having gone, even behold, two men in white clothing stood beside them,

mkjv@Acts:1:11 @ who also said, Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into the heaven? This same Jesus who is taken up from you into Heaven, will come in the way you have seen Him going into Heaven.

mkjv@Acts:1:12 @ Then they returned to Jerusalem from [the] mount Of Olive Grove, which is a sabbath day's [journey] from Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:1:13 @ And when they had come in, they went up into an upper room, where Peter and James, and John and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James [the son] of Alpheus and Simon Zelotes, and Judas [the brother] of James;

mkjv@Acts:1:14 @ these all were continuing with one accord in prayer and supplication, with [the] women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.

mkjv@Acts:1:15 @ And in those days Peter stood up in [the] midst of the disciples and said, ( the] number of names together [was] about a hundred and twenty,)

mkjv@Acts:1:16 @ Men, brothers, this Scripture must have been fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit by the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, who became guide to those who seized Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:1:17 @ For he was numbered with us and had obtained part of this ministry.

mkjv@Acts:1:18 @ Indeed, then, this one purchased a field with the reward of unrighteousness. And falling headlong, he burst apart in [the] middle, and all his bowels gushed out.

mkjv@Acts:1:19 @ And it was known to all the dwellers at Jerusalem, so much so that that field is called in their own dialect, Akeldama, that is to say, Field of Blood.

mkjv@Acts:1:20 @ For it is written in [the] Book of Psalms, Let his estate become forsaken, and he not be living in it. And, Let another take his overseership.

mkjv@Acts:1:21 @ Therefore, it is right that one of these men who have companied with us all [the] time that the Lord Jesus came in and went out among us,

mkjv@Acts:1:22 @ beginning from the baptism of John to that same day that He was taken up from us, to become a witness with us of His resurrection.

mkjv@Acts:1:23 @ And they appointed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.

mkjv@Acts:1:24 @ And they prayed and said, You, Lord, knower of all hearts, show which one You chose from these two,

mkjv@Acts:1:25 @ to take the share of this ministry and apostleship from which Judas fell, to go to [his] own place.

mkjv@Acts:1:26 @ And they gave forth their lots. And the lot fell upon Matthias. And he was numbered with the eleven apostles.

mkjv@Acts:2:1 @ And in the fulfilling of the day of Pentecost, they were all with one accord in one place.

mkjv@Acts:2:2 @ And suddenly a sound came out of the heaven as borne along by the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

mkjv@Acts:2:3 @ And tongues as of fire appeared to them, being distributed; and it sat upon each of them.

mkjv@Acts:2:4 @ And they were all filled of the Holy Spirit, and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

mkjv@Acts:2:5 @ And dwelling at Jerusalem there were Jews, devout men out of every nation under heaven.

mkjv@Acts:2:6 @ But this sound occurring, the multitude came together and were confounded, because they each heard them speaking in his own dialect.

mkjv@Acts:2:7 @ And they were all amazed and marveled, saying to one another, Behold, are not these who speak all Galileans?

mkjv@Acts:2:8 @ And how do we each hear in our own dialect in which we were born?

mkjv@Acts:2:9 @ Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,

mkjv@Acts:2:10 @ Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya around Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,

mkjv@Acts:2:11 @ Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking the great things of God in our own languages.

mkjv@Acts:2:12 @ And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying to one another, What does this mean?

mkjv@Acts:2:13 @ But others mocking said, These men are full of sweet wine.

mkjv@Acts:2:14 @ But Peter, standing up with the Eleven, lifted up his voice and said to them, Men, Jews, and all who dwell at Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen to my words.

mkjv@Acts:2:15 @ For these are not drunk as you suppose, for it is [the] third hour of the day.

mkjv@Acts:2:16 @ But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel:

mkjv@Acts:2:17 @ And it shall be in the last days, says God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh. And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.

mkjv@Acts:2:18 @ And in those days I will pour out My Spirit upon My slaves and My slave women, and they shall prophesy.

mkjv@Acts:2:19 @ And I will give wonders in the heaven above, and miracles on the earth below, blood and fire and vapor of smoke.

mkjv@Acts:2:20 @ The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before that great and glorious Day of the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:2:21 @ And it shall be [that] everyone who shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

mkjv@Acts:2:22 @ Men, Israelites, hear these words. Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by powerful works, and wonders and miracles, which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know,

mkjv@Acts:2:23 @ this One given [to you] by the before-determined counsel and foreknowledge of God, [you] have taken and by lawless hands, crucifying [Him], you put Him to death;

mkjv@Acts:2:24 @ whom God raised up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that He should be held by it.

mkjv@Acts:2:25 @ For David speaks concerning Him, I foresaw the Lord always before me, because He is at my right hand, that I should not be moved.

mkjv@Acts:2:26 @ Therefore my heart rejoiced and my tongue was glad; and also My flesh shall rest in hope,

mkjv@Acts:2:27 @ because You will not leave My soul in Hades, nor will You allow Your holy One to see corruption.

mkjv@Acts:2:28 @ You revealed to Me the ways of life. You will fill Me with joy with Your countenance.

mkjv@Acts:2:29 @ Men, brothers, it is permitted to say to you with plainness as to the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.

mkjv@Acts:2:30 @ Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that of [the] fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, He would raise up Christ to sit upon his throne,

mkjv@Acts:2:31 @ seeing this beforehand, he spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that His soul was not left in Hades, nor would His flesh see corruption,

mkjv@Acts:2:32 @ God raised up this Jesus, of which we all are witnesses.

mkjv@Acts:2:33 @ Therefore being exalted to the right of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He has poured out this which you now see and hear.

mkjv@Acts:2:34 @ For David has not ascended into the heavens, but he says himself, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit at My right [hand]

mkjv@Acts:2:35 @ until I place Your enemies [as] a footstool to Your feet.

mkjv@Acts:2:36 @ Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God made this same Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.

mkjv@Acts:2:37 @ And hearing [this], they were stabbed in the heart, and said to Peter and to the other apostles, Men, brothers, what shall we do?

mkjv@Acts:2:38 @ Then Peter said to them, Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ to remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Acts:2:39 @ For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all those afar off, as many as [the] Lord our God shall call.

mkjv@Acts:2:40 @ And with many other words he earnestly testified and exhorted, saying, Be saved from this perverse generation.

mkjv@Acts:2:41 @ Then those who gladly received his word were baptized. And the same day there were added about three thousand souls.

mkjv@Acts:2:42 @ And they were continuing steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine, and in fellowship and in the breaking of the loaves, and in prayers.

mkjv@Acts:2:43 @ And fear came on every soul. And many wonders and miracles took place through the apostles.

mkjv@Acts:2:44 @ And all who believed were together and had all things common.

mkjv@Acts:2:45 @ And they sold their possessions and goods and distributed them to all, according as anyone had need.

mkjv@Acts:2:46 @ And continuing with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they shared food with gladness and simplicity of heart,

mkjv@Acts:2:47 @ praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.

mkjv@Acts:3:1 @ And on the same [day] Peter and John went up into the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth [hour].

mkjv@Acts:3:2 @ And a certain man, who was lame from his mother's womb, was being carried. And they laid him daily at that temple gate which is called Beautiful, to ask alms from those who entered into the temple.

mkjv@Acts:3:3 @ Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked [to receive] alms.

mkjv@Acts:3:4 @ And fastening his eyes on him, Peter with John said, Look on us!

mkjv@Acts:3:5 @ And he paid heed to them, expecting to receive something from them.

mkjv@Acts:3:6 @ But Peter said, Silver and gold have I none, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!

mkjv@Acts:3:7 @ And taking him by the right hand, he lifted [him] up. And immediately his feet and ankle-bones received strength.

mkjv@Acts:3:8 @ And leaping up, he stood and walked and entered with them into the temple, walking and leaping and praising God.

mkjv@Acts:3:9 @ And all the people saw him walking and praising God.

mkjv@Acts:3:10 @ And they recognized him, that it was him who sat for alms at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. And they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

mkjv@Acts:3:11 @ And as the lame one who was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.

mkjv@Acts:3:12 @ And seeing [this], Peter answered the people, Men, Israelites, why do you marvel at this? Or why do you stare at us, as [though] we had made this man to walk by our own power or holiness?

mkjv@Acts:3:13 @ The God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His son Jesus, whom you delivered up, denying Him in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to let [Him] go.

mkjv@Acts:3:14 @ But you denied the Holy and Just [One] and desired a murderer to be given to you.

mkjv@Acts:3:15 @ And you killed the Prince of Life, whom God has raised from [the] dead, of which we are witnesses.

mkjv@Acts:3:16 @ And His name, through faith in His name, has made this man strong, this one whom you see and know, His name made firm. And the faith which came through Him has given him this perfect soundness before you.

mkjv@Acts:3:17 @ And now, brothers, I know that you did [it] through ignorance, as also your rulers [did].

mkjv@Acts:3:18 @ But those things which God before had shown by the mouth of all His prophets, [that] Christ should suffer, He fulfilled in this manner.

mkjv@Acts:3:19 @ Therefore repent and convert so that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from [the] presence of the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:3:20 @ And He shall send Jesus Christ, who before was proclaimed to you,

mkjv@Acts:3:21 @ whom Heaven truly needs to receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God has spoken by [the] mouth of His holy prophets since the world began.

mkjv@Acts:3:22 @ For Moses truly said to the fathers, The] Lord your God shall raise up a Prophet to you from your brothers, [One] like me. You shall hear Him in all things, whatever He may say to you.

mkjv@Acts:3:23 @ And it shall be [that] every soul who will not hear that Prophet shall be destroyed from among the people.

mkjv@Acts:3:24 @ And also all the prophets from Samuel and those following after, as many as spoke, have likewise foretold of these days.

mkjv@Acts:3:25 @ You are the sons of the prophets and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in your Seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.

mkjv@Acts:3:26 @ Having raised up His son Jesus, God sent Him to you first, to bless you in turning every one of you away from his iniquities.

mkjv@Acts:4:1 @ And [as] they spoke to the people, the priests, and the temple commander, and the Sadducees came on them,

mkjv@Acts:4:2 @ being grieved that they taught the people, even to announce through Jesus the resurrection from [the] dead.

mkjv@Acts:4:3 @ [And they] laid hands on [them] and put [them] under guard until the next day, for it was already evening.

mkjv@Acts:4:4 @ But many of those who heard the Word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.

mkjv@Acts:4:5 @ And it happened on the next day that their rulers and elders and scribes, gathered to Jerusalem,

mkjv@Acts:4:6 @ and Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest.

mkjv@Acts:4:7 @ And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name have you done this?

mkjv@Acts:4:8 @ Then Peter, filled with [the] Holy Spirit, said to them, Rulers of the people and elders of Israel,

mkjv@Acts:4:9 @ if we are examined today on a good work for an infirm man, by what this one has been healed,

mkjv@Acts:4:10 @ be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from [the] dead, in this [name] does this man stand before you whole.

mkjv@Acts:4:11 @ This is the Stone which you builders have counted worthless, and He has become the Head of [the] Corner.

mkjv@Acts:4:12 @ And there is salvation in no other One; for there is no other name under Heaven given among men by which we must be saved.

mkjv@Acts:4:13 @ But seeing the boldness of Peter and John, and perceiving that they were unlearned and uneducated men, they marveled. And they recognized them, that they had been with Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:4:14 @ And beholding the man who was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against [it].

mkjv@Acts:4:15 @ And when they had commanded them to go aside out of the sanhedrin, they conferred among themselves,

mkjv@Acts:4:16 @ saying, What shall we do to these men? For that indeed a notable miracle has been done by them is plain to all those dwelling in Jerusalem. And we cannot deny [it].

mkjv@Acts:4:17 @ But, so that it spread no further among the people, let us strictly threaten them, [that] they speak to no man in this name from now on.

mkjv@Acts:4:18 @ And they called them and commanded them not to speak at all, nor to teach in the name of Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:4:19 @ But Peter and John answered and said to them, Whether it is right before God to listen to you more than to God, you judge.

mkjv@Acts:4:20 @ For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.

mkjv@Acts:4:21 @ So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way [as to] how they might punish them, because of the people. For all glorified God for that which was done.

mkjv@Acts:4:22 @ For the man on whom this miracle of healing occurred was more than forty years [old].

mkjv@Acts:4:23 @ And being let go, they went to their own company and reported what the chief priests and elders had said [to them].

mkjv@Acts:4:24 @ And having heard, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord and said, Lord, You [are] the God who made the heaven and earth, and the sea, and all that is in them;

mkjv@Acts:4:25 @ who by the mouth of Your servant David has said, Why did the nations rage and the people imagine vain things?

mkjv@Acts:4:26 @ The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord and against His Christ.

mkjv@Acts:4:27 @ For truly, against Your holy child Jesus, whom You have anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the nations, and [the] people of Israel, were gathered together

mkjv@Acts:4:28 @ in order to do whatever Your hand and Your counsel determined before to be done.

mkjv@Acts:4:29 @ And now, Lord, behold their threatenings, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your Word,

mkjv@Acts:4:30 @ by stretching forth of Your hand for healing, and miracles, and wonders may be done by the name of Your holy child Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:4:31 @ And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled was shaken. And they were all filled with [the] Holy Spirit, and they spoke the Word of God with boldness.

mkjv@Acts:4:32 @ And the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and one soul. And not one said that any of the things which he possessed was his own. But they had all things common.

mkjv@Acts:4:33 @ And the apostles gave witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus with great power. And great grace was on them all.

mkjv@Acts:4:34 @ For neither was anyone needy among them, for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold [them] and brought the prices of the [things] that were sold,

mkjv@Acts:4:35 @ and they laid [them] down at the apostles' feet. And distribution was made to every man according as he had need.

mkjv@Acts:4:36 @ And Joses, who was surnamed Barnabas by the apostles (which is, being translated, The son of consolation), a Levite, a Cypriot by race,

mkjv@Acts:4:37 @ a field being his, selling [it], he bore the proceeds and placed [them] at the apostles' feet.

mkjv@Acts:5:1 @ And a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession.

mkjv@Acts:5:2 @ And he kept back [part] of the price, his wife also knowing, and brought a certain part and laid [it] at the apostles' feet.

mkjv@Acts:5:3 @ But Peter said, Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart [for] you to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back [part] of the price of the land?

mkjv@Acts:5:4 @ While it remained, was it not your own? And after it was sold, was it [not] in your own authority? Why have you conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men, but to God.

mkjv@Acts:5:5 @ And hearing these words, Ananias fell down [and] expired. And great fear came on all those who heard these things.

mkjv@Acts:5:6 @ And the younger ones arose, wound him up, and carrying [him] out, [they] buried [him].

mkjv@Acts:5:7 @ And it was about the space of three hours afterward, when his wife (not knowing what was done) came in.

mkjv@Acts:5:8 @ And Peter answered her, Tell me whether you sold the land [for] so much? And she said, Yes, [for] so much.

mkjv@Acts:5:9 @ Then Peter said to her, How [is it] that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of [the] Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband [are] at the door and they will carry you out.

mkjv@Acts:5:10 @ Then at once she fell down at his feet and expired. And the younger ones found her dead, and, carrying [her] out, buried her beside her husband.

mkjv@Acts:5:11 @ And great fear came on all the church and on as many as heard these things.

mkjv@Acts:5:12 @ And many miracles and wonders were done among the people by the hands of the apostles; and they were all with one accord in Solomon's Porch.

mkjv@Acts:5:13 @ And of the rest no one dared to join himself to them, but the people magnified them;

mkjv@Acts:5:14 @ and more believing ones were added to [the] Lord, multitudes both of men and women;

mkjv@Acts:5:15 @ So as to carry out the sick into the streets and place [them] on cots and mattresses, so that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.

mkjv@Acts:5:16 @ And also a multitude came [from] the cities around Jerusalem, bringing sick ones, and those being tormented by unclean spirits, who were all healed.

mkjv@Acts:5:17 @ And rising up, the high priest, and all those who were with him (which is the [sect] of the Sadducees) were filled with anger,

mkjv@Acts:5:18 @ And laid their hands on the apostles and put them in the public custody.

mkjv@Acts:5:19 @ But the angel of [the] Lord opened the prison doors by night and brought them out, and said,

mkjv@Acts:5:20 @ Go! Stand and speak all the words of this Life to the people in the temple.

mkjv@Acts:5:21 @ And hearing, they went into the temple about dawn, and taught. But the high priest came, and those with him. And they called the sanhedrin together, and all the elderhood of the sons of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.

mkjv@Acts:5:22 @ But having come near, the officers did not find them in the prison. And returning, reported,

mkjv@Acts:5:23 @ saying, We indeed found the prison shut with all safety, and the keepers standing outside in front of the doors. But having opened it, we found no one inside.

mkjv@Acts:5:24 @ And when the high priest and the temple commander and the chief priests heard these things, they were bewildered about them, what this might be.

mkjv@Acts:5:25 @ But one came, reporting to them, saying, Behold, the men whom you put in prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people.

mkjv@Acts:5:26 @ Then the commander went with the officers [and] brought them, not with force, for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned.

mkjv@Acts:5:27 @ And bringing them, they stood in the sanhedrin. And the high priest asked them,

mkjv@Acts:5:28 @ saying, Did we not strictly command you [that] you not teach in this name? And behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine and intend to bring this man's blood on us.

mkjv@Acts:5:29 @ And Peter and the apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.

mkjv@Acts:5:30 @ The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you killed and hanged on a tree.

mkjv@Acts:5:31 @ This One God [has] exalted [to be] a Ruler and Savior to His right [hand] in order to give repentance and remission of sins to Israel.

mkjv@Acts:5:32 @ And we are His witnesses of these things. And [so] also [is] the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey Him.

mkjv@Acts:5:33 @ But those hearing were cut [to the heart], and they took counsel to kill them.

mkjv@Acts:5:34 @ Then there stood up one in the sanhedrin, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law honored among all the people. And he commanded the apostles to be put outside a little space.

mkjv@Acts:5:35 @ And he said to them, Men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do [regarding] these men.

mkjv@Acts:5:36 @ For before these days Theudas rose up, boasting himself to be somebody; a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves to him; who was slain. And all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered and brought to nothing.

mkjv@Acts:5:37 @ After this one, Judas of Galilee rose up in the days of the Registration, and drew away considerable people after him. Yet that one perished; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered.

mkjv@Acts:5:38 @ And now I say to you, withdraw from these men and let them alone. For if this counsel or this work is of men, it will come to nothing.

mkjv@Acts:5:39 @ But if it is of God, you cannot overthrow it, lest perhaps you be found even to fight against God.

mkjv@Acts:5:40 @ And they obeyed him. And calling the apostles, beating [them], they commanded not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.

mkjv@Acts:5:41 @ Then indeed they departed from [the] presence of the sanhedrin, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to be shamed for His name.

mkjv@Acts:5:42 @ And every day in the temple, and from house to house, they did not cease teaching and preaching the gospel: Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Acts:6:1 @ And in those days, the disciples having multiplied, a murmuring of the Hellenists against the Hebrews occurred, because their widows were overlooked in the daily serving.

mkjv@Acts:6:2 @ And the Twelve called near the multitude of the disciples and said, It is not pleasing to us, leaving the Word of God, to serve tables.

mkjv@Acts:6:3 @ Therefore, brothers, look out among you seven [men] being witnessed to, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this duty.

mkjv@Acts:6:4 @ But we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the Word.

mkjv@Acts:6:5 @ And the saying pleased all the multitude. And they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of [the] Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicholas, a proselyte of Antioch.

mkjv@Acts:6:6 @ They set these before the apostles. And having prayed, they laid hands on them.

mkjv@Acts:6:7 @ And the word of God was increasing. And the number of the disciples in Jerusalem was multiplying exceedingly; even a great crowd of the priests obeyed the faith.

mkjv@Acts:6:8 @ And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.

mkjv@Acts:6:9 @ Then there arose certain of the synagogue which is called [the synagogue] of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of those from Cilicia and from Asia, disputing with Stephen.

mkjv@Acts:6:10 @ And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spoke.

mkjv@Acts:6:11 @ And they induced men [to be] saying, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and God.

mkjv@Acts:6:12 @ And they stirred up the people and the elders and the scribes. And coming on, they seized him and brought him to the sanhedrin.

mkjv@Acts:6:13 @ And they set up false witnesses, who said, This man does not cease speaking blasphemous words against this holy place and the Law.

mkjv@Acts:6:14 @ For we have heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered to us.

mkjv@Acts:6:15 @ And looking intently at him. all those sitting in the sanhedrin saw his face as if [it were the] face of an angel.

mkjv@Acts:7:1 @ Then the high priest said, Then do you so hold these things?

mkjv@Acts:7:2 @ And he said, Men, brothers, and fathers, listen: The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran.

mkjv@Acts:7:3 @ And He said to him, Go out from your land and from your kindred, and come into a land which I shall show you.

mkjv@Acts:7:4 @ Then he came out of [the] land of the Chaldeans and lived in Haran. And from there, when his father was dead, he moved into this land in which you now dwell.

mkjv@Acts:7:5 @ And He gave him no inheritance in it, no, not [even] a foot-breadth. And [He] promised that He would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, there being no child to him.

mkjv@Acts:7:6 @ And God spoke in this way, that his seed would be a tenant in another land, and that they would enslave it and oppress [it] four hundred years.

mkjv@Acts:7:7 @ And God said, I will judge the nation to whom they shall be in bondage, and after these things they will come out and will serve Me in this place.

mkjv@Acts:7:8 @ And He gave him the covenant of circumcision. And so [Abraham] fathered Isaac and circumcised him the eighth day. And Isaac [fathered] Jacob, and Jacob the twelve patriarchs.

mkjv@Acts:7:9 @ And being jealous of Joseph, the patriarchs sold [Joseph] into Egypt. But God was with him

mkjv@Acts:7:10 @ and plucked him out from all his afflictions, and He gave him favor and wisdom over against Pharaoh king of Egypt. And he appointed him governor over Egypt and all his household.

mkjv@Acts:7:11 @ But a famine came over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and a great affliction. And our fathers found no food.

mkjv@Acts:7:12 @ But hearing grain was in Egypt, Jacob sent out our fathers first.

mkjv@Acts:7:13 @ And at the second [time] Joseph was made known to his brothers, and Joseph's race was made known to Pharaoh.

mkjv@Acts:7:14 @ And seeing, Joseph called his father Jacob, and all his kindred, seventy-five souls.

mkjv@Acts:7:15 @ And Jacob went down into Egypt and died, he and our fathers,

mkjv@Acts:7:16 @ and were carried over into Shechem. And they were laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price of silver from the sons of Emmor [the father] of Shechem.

mkjv@Acts:7:17 @ But as the time was drawing near, of the promise which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,

mkjv@Acts:7:18 @ until another king arose who did not know Joseph.

mkjv@Acts:7:19 @ Dealing subtly with our race, this one oppressed our fathers, causing their infants [to be] exposed, [so as] not to be left alive.

mkjv@Acts:7:20 @ In this time Moses was born, and was beautiful to God, who was brought up three months in his father's house.

mkjv@Acts:7:21 @ And he being cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up and reared him for a son to her.

mkjv@Acts:7:22 @ And Moses was learned in all [the] wisdom of the Egyptians and was mighty in words and in deeds.

mkjv@Acts:7:23 @ And when a period of forty years was fulfilled to him, it arose in his heart to look upon his brothers, the sons of Israel.

mkjv@Acts:7:24 @ And seeing one being wronged, he defended [him]. and avenged him who was oppressed and struck the Egyptian.

mkjv@Acts:7:25 @ For he thought his brothers [would] understand that God would give them deliverance by his hand. But they did not understand.

mkjv@Acts:7:26 @ And the next day he appeared to them [while] fighting. And he urged them to peace, saying, Men, you are brothers, why do you wrong one another?

mkjv@Acts:7:27 @ But he who wronged his neighbor thrust him away, saying, Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?

mkjv@Acts:7:28 @ Will you not kill me as you did the Egyptian yesterday?

mkjv@Acts:7:29 @ And Moses fled at this word, and became a temporary resident in the land of Midian, where he fathered two sons.

mkjv@Acts:7:30 @ And forty years being fulfilled to him, [the] Angel of [the] Lord appeared to him in the desert of Mount Sinai in a flame of fire in a bush.

mkjv@Acts:7:31 @ And seeing [it], Moses marveled at the sight. And as he drew near to see, the voice of [the] Lord came to him:

mkjv@Acts:7:32 @ [saying], I [am] the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. But Moses trembled and dared not look.

mkjv@Acts:7:33 @ Then the Lord said to him, Loosen the sandal on your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground.

mkjv@Acts:7:34 @ I have seen, the affliction of My people in Egypt, and I have heard their groan; and I came down to pluck them out. And now come, I will send you into Egypt.

mkjv@Acts:7:35 @ This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made you a ruler and a judge? God has sent this one [to be] a ruler and a redeemer by [the] hand of [the] Angel who appeared to him in the Bush.

mkjv@Acts:7:36 @ He brought them out after he had worked wonders and miracles in [the] land of Egypt and in [the] Red Sea and in the wilderness forty years.

mkjv@Acts:7:37 @ This is that Moses who said to the sons of Israel, The] Lord your God shall raise up a Prophet to you from your brothers, [One] like me; you shall hear Him.

mkjv@Acts:7:38 @ This is he who was in the congregation in the wilderness with the Angel who spoke to him in Mount Sinai, and [with] our fathers, who received the living words to give to us,

mkjv@Acts:7:39 @ to whom our fathers would not be obedient, but thrust [him] away and turned back again to Egypt in their hearts,

mkjv@Acts:7:40 @ saying to Aaron, Make us gods to go before us, for [as for] this Moses who brought us out of [the] land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.

mkjv@Acts:7:41 @ And they made a calf in those days and offered sacrifice to the idol and rejoiced in the work of their own hands.

mkjv@Acts:7:42 @ Then God turned and gave them over to serve the host of the heavens, as it is written in [the] book of the Prophets: O house of Israel, have you offered to Me slain beasts and sacrifices forty years in the wilderness?

mkjv@Acts:7:43 @ Yea, you took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, images which you made in order to worship them; and I will remove you beyond Babylon.

mkjv@Acts:7:44 @ The tabernacle of witness was among our fathers in the wilderness, as commanded [by God], speaking to Moses to make it according to the pattern that he had seen.

mkjv@Acts:7:45 @ Which also having received it by inheritance with Joshua, our fathers, with Joshua, in taking possession of the nations whom God drove out before the face of our fathers until the days of David,

mkjv@Acts:7:46 @ who found favor with God and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob;

mkjv@Acts:7:47 @ but Solomon built Him a house.

mkjv@Acts:7:48 @ But, the Most High does not dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says,

mkjv@Acts:7:49 @ Heaven [is] My throne and earth [is] My footstool. What house will you build Me, says [the] Lord, or what [is] the place of My rest?

mkjv@Acts:7:50 @ Has not My hand made all these things?

mkjv@Acts:7:51 @ O stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit. As your fathers [did], so you do.

mkjv@Acts:7:52 @ Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who foretold the coming of the Just One, of whom you have now been the betrayers and murderers;

mkjv@Acts:7:53 @ who received the Law through disposition of angels, and did not keep [it.]

mkjv@Acts:7:54 @ And hearing these things, they were cut to their hearts. And they gnashed on him with [their] teeth.

mkjv@Acts:7:55 @ But being full of [the] Holy Spirit, looking up intently into Heaven, he saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God.

mkjv@Acts:7:56 @ And [he] said, Behold, I see Heaven opened and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.

mkjv@Acts:7:57 @ And crying out with a loud voice, they stopped their ears and ran on him with one accord.

mkjv@Acts:7:58 @ And throwing [him] outside the city, they stoned [him]. And the witnesses laid their clothes down at the feet of a young man named Saul.

mkjv@Acts:7:59 @ And they stoned Stephen, who was calling on [God] and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.

mkjv@Acts:8:1 @ And Saul was consenting to his death. And in that day there was a great persecution on the church at Jerusalem, and all were scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.

mkjv@Acts:8:2 @ And devout men buried Stephen and made a great mourning over him.

mkjv@Acts:8:3 @ But Saul ravaged the church, entering into every house. And dragging men and women, he delivered [them] up to prison.

mkjv@Acts:8:4 @ Then, indeed, the ones who had been scattered passed through, preaching the gospel, the Word.

mkjv@Acts:8:5 @ And Philip went down to the city of Samaria and proclaimed Christ to them.

mkjv@Acts:8:6 @ And the people with one accord gave heed to those things which Philip spoke, hearing and seeing the many miracles which he did.

mkjv@Acts:8:7 @ For out of those having unclean spirits, many came out, crying with loud voice. And many who had been paralyzed and lame were healed.

mkjv@Acts:8:8 @ And there was great joy in that city.

mkjv@Acts:8:9 @ But a certain man called Simon had long been conjuring in the city, and amazing the nation of Samaria, claiming himself to be some great one.

mkjv@Acts:8:10 @ All gave heed to [him], from the least to the greatest, saying, This one is the great power of God.

mkjv@Acts:8:11 @ And they were paying attention to him, because for a long time he had amazed them [with] conjuring.

mkjv@Acts:8:12 @ But when they believed Philip preaching the gospel, the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

mkjv@Acts:8:13 @ Then Simon himself believed also, and being baptized, he continued with Philip. And seeing miracles and mighty works happening, he was amazed.

mkjv@Acts:8:14 @ And the apostles in Jerusalem hearing that Samaria had received the Word of God, they sent Peter and John to them;

mkjv@Acts:8:15 @ who when they had come down, prayed for them that they might receive [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Acts:8:16 @ For as yet He had not fallen on any of them, they were baptized only in the name of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:8:17 @ Then they laid [their] hands on them, and they received [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Acts:8:18 @ And when Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money,

mkjv@Acts:8:19 @ saying, Give me this power also, that on whomever I lay hands, he may receive [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Acts:8:20 @ But Peter said to him, May your silver perish with you, because you have thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.

mkjv@Acts:8:21 @ You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not right in the sight of God.

mkjv@Acts:8:22 @ Therefore repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray God if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you.

mkjv@Acts:8:23 @ For I see that you are in [the] gall of bitterness and [in] the bond of iniquity.

mkjv@Acts:8:24 @ And answering Simon said, You pray to the Lord for me that none of these things which you have spoken may come on me.

mkjv@Acts:8:25 @ Then, indeed, having earnestly testified and having spoken the Word of the Lord also having preached the gospel [to] many villages of the Samaritans, they returned to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:8:26 @ And the angel of [the] Lord spoke to Philip, saying, Arise and go toward the south, on the way that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza, which is a deserted [place].

mkjv@Acts:8:27 @ And he arose and went. And behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge of all her treasure and had come to Jerusalem to worship,

mkjv@Acts:8:28 @ was returning. And sitting in his chariot he read Isaiah the prophet.

mkjv@Acts:8:29 @ Then the Spirit said to Philip, Go near and join yourself to this chariot.

mkjv@Acts:8:30 @ And Philip ran there to [him] and heard him read the prophet Isaiah, and said, Do you indeed understand what you are reading?

mkjv@Acts:8:31 @ And he said, How can I unless some man should guide me? And he asked Philip to come up and sit with him.

mkjv@Acts:8:32 @ And the content of the Scripture which he read was this: He was led as a sheep to the slaughter, and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so He opened not His mouth.

mkjv@Acts:8:33 @ In His humiliation His judgment was taken away, and who shall declare His generation? For His life is taken from the earth.

mkjv@Acts:8:34 @ And the eunuch answered Philip and said, I beg you, of whom does the prophet speak this? Of himself or of some other man?

mkjv@Acts:8:35 @ Then Philip opened his mouth and began at the same Scripture and preached the gospel of Jesus to him.

mkjv@Acts:8:36 @ And as they passed along the way, they came on some water. And the eunuch said, See, here is water, what hinders me [from] being baptized?

mkjv@Acts:8:37 @ Philip said, If you believe with all your heart, it is lawful. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

mkjv@Acts:8:38 @ And he commanded the chariot to stand still. And they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch. And he baptized him.

mkjv@Acts:8:39 @ And when they had come up out of the water, [the] Spirit of [the] Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch saw him no more. And he went on his way rejoicing.

mkjv@Acts:8:40 @ But Philip was found at Azotus. And passing through, he preached the gospel in all the cities until he came to Caesarea.

mkjv@Acts:9:1 @ And Saul, still breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest

mkjv@Acts:9:2 @ and asked letters from him to Damascus to the synagogues; so that if he found any of the Way, whether they were men or women, he might bring [them] bound to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:9:3 @ But in going, it happened as he drew near to Damascus, even suddenly a light from the heaven shone around him.

mkjv@Acts:9:4 @ And he fell to the earth and heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?

mkjv@Acts:9:5 @ And he said, Who are you, lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom you persecute. [It is] hard for you to kick against the goads.

mkjv@Acts:9:6 @ And trembling and astonished, he said, Lord, what will You have me to do? And the Lord [said] to him, Arise and go into the city, and you shall be told what you must do.

mkjv@Acts:9:7 @ And the men who journeyed with him stood speechless, indeed hearing a voice but seeing no one.

mkjv@Acts:9:8 @ And Saul was lifted up from the earth, his eyes were opened, but he saw no one. But they led him by the hand and brought [him] into Damascus.

mkjv@Acts:9:9 @ And he was three days not seeing, and did not eat or drink.

mkjv@Acts:9:10 @ And there was a certain disciple in Damascus named Ananias. And the Lord said to him in a vision, Ananias! And he said, Behold me, Lord.

mkjv@Acts:9:11 @ And the Lord [said] to him, Arise and go into the street which is called Straight and inquire in [the] house of Judas for [one] called Saul of Tarsus. For behold, he is praying,

mkjv@Acts:9:12 @ and has seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in and putting [his] hand on him so that he might receive his sight.

mkjv@Acts:9:13 @ And Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard from many of this man, how many evil things he has done to Your saints at Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:9:14 @ And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on Your Name.

mkjv@Acts:9:15 @ But the Lord said to him, Go! For this one is a chosen vessel to Me, to bear My name before nations and kings and the sons of Israel.

mkjv@Acts:9:16 @ For I will show him what great things he must suffer for My name's sake.

mkjv@Acts:9:17 @ And Ananias went and entered into the house. And putting his hands on him, [he] said, Brother Saul, the Lord, Jesus, who appeared to you in the way in which you came, has sent me to you that you might see and be filled with [the Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Acts:9:18 @ And instantly scales as it were fell from his eyes, and he instantly saw again. And rising up, he was baptized.

mkjv@Acts:9:19 @ And taking food, [he] was strengthened. And Saul was certain days with the disciples in Damascus.

mkjv@Acts:9:20 @ And immediately he proclaimed Christ in the synagogues, that He is the Son of God.

mkjv@Acts:9:21 @ But all who heard [him] were amazed and said, Is this not he who destroyed those who called on this name in Jerusalem and came here for that reason, that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?

mkjv@Acts:9:22 @ But Saul increased the more in strength and confounded the Jews who lived at Damascus, proving that this One is the Christ.

mkjv@Acts:9:23 @ And after many days had been fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill him.

mkjv@Acts:9:24 @ But their plot was known to Saul. And they watched the gates day and night in order to kill him.

mkjv@Acts:9:25 @ Then the disciples took [him] by night and let him down through the wall in a basket.

mkjv@Acts:9:26 @ And arriving in Jerusalem, Saul attempted to join himself to the disciples. But they were all afraid of him, and did not believe that he was a disciple.

mkjv@Acts:9:27 @ But Barnabas took him and brought [him] to the apostles and told them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that He had spoken to him, and how he had spoken boldly in Damascus in the name of Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:9:28 @ And he was with them, coming in and going out in Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:9:29 @ And he spoke boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and argued with the Hellenists. But they seized him in order to kill him.

mkjv@Acts:9:30 @ But knowing, the brothers brought him down to Caesarea and sent him forth to Tarsus.

mkjv@Acts:9:31 @ Then, indeed, the churches had rest throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria, and having been built up. And having gone on in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, they [were] increased.

mkjv@Acts:9:32 @ And it happened, passing through all, Peter also came down to the saints who lived at Lydda.

mkjv@Acts:9:33 @ And there he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had lain eight years on a mattress, paralyzed.

mkjv@Acts:9:34 @ And Peter said to him, Aeneas, Jesus the Christ heals you; rise up and spread for yourself! And he arose immediately.

mkjv@Acts:9:35 @ And all who lived at Lydda and Sharon saw him and turned to the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:9:36 @ And in Joppa was a certain disciple named Tabitha (which translated is called Dorcas). She was full of good works and kind deeds which she did.

mkjv@Acts:9:37 @ And it happened in those days, becoming sick, she died. And washing her, they laid [her] in an upper room.

mkjv@Acts:9:38 @ And, because Lydda was near Joppa, hearing that Peter is in it, the disciples sent two men to him, begging [him] not to delay to come to them.

mkjv@Acts:9:39 @ And rising up, Peter went with them. When he had come, they brought him into the upper room. And all the widows stood beside him, weeping and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas made [while] she was with them.

mkjv@Acts:9:40 @ And putting them all out, Peter knelt down and prayed. And turning to the body he said, Tabitha, arise! And she opened her eyes. And when she saw Peter, she sat up.

mkjv@Acts:9:41 @ And he gave her [his] hand and lifted her up. And when he had called the saints and widows, he presented her alive.

mkjv@Acts:9:42 @ And it was known throughout all Joppa. And many believed in the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:9:43 @ And it was many days that he remained in Joppa, with one Simon, a tanner.

mkjv@Acts:10:1 @ And a certain man named Cornelius was in Caesarea, a centurion of the Italian cohort,

mkjv@Acts:10:2 @ [one] devout and fearing God, with all his household, both doing many merciful deeds to the people, and praying continually to God.

mkjv@Acts:10:3 @ About the ninth hour of the day he saw plainly in a vision an angel of God coming to him and saying to him, Cornelius!

mkjv@Acts:10:4 @ And he was gazing at him, and becoming terrified, he said, What is it, lord? And he said to him, Your prayers and your merciful deeds have come up for a memorial before God.

mkjv@Acts:10:5 @ And now send men to Joppa and call for Simon, whose last name is Peter.

mkjv@Acts:10:6 @ He is staying with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by [the] seaside. He will tell you what you must do.

mkjv@Acts:10:7 @ And when the angel who spoke to Cornelius departed, he called two of his servants and a devout soldier from those who waited on him continually.

mkjv@Acts:10:8 @ And explaining all things to them, he sent them to Joppa.

mkjv@Acts:10:9 @ On the next day, as these went on [the] road, and drawing near the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray, about [the] sixth hour.

mkjv@Acts:10:10 @ And he became very hungry and desired to eat. But while they made ready, an ecstasy fell on him.

mkjv@Acts:10:11 @ And he saw the heaven opened and a certain vessel like a sheet coming down to him, being bound at the four corners and let down to the earth;

mkjv@Acts:10:12 @ in which were all the four-footed animals of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the reptiles, and the birds of the heaven.

mkjv@Acts:10:13 @ And a voice came to him, saying, Rise, Peter! Kill and eat!

mkjv@Acts:10:14 @ But Peter said, Not so, Lord, for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean.

mkjv@Acts:10:15 @ And the voice [spoke] to him again the second [time], What God has made clean, you do not call common.

mkjv@Acts:10:16 @ This happened three [times], and the vessel was received up again into the heaven.

mkjv@Acts:10:17 @ And while Peter doubted within himself what the vision which he had seen might be, even behold, the men who were sent from Cornelius had asked for Simon's house and stood on the porch.

mkjv@Acts:10:18 @ And they called and asked if Simon whose last name is Peter was staying there.

mkjv@Acts:10:19 @ And [while] Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said to him, Behold, three men are looking for you.

mkjv@Acts:10:20 @ Therefore arise and go down and go with them without doubting, for I have sent them.

mkjv@Acts:10:21 @ And going down to the men, those sent to him from Cornelius, Peter said, Behold, I am [the one] you are seeking. For what reason have you come?

mkjv@Acts:10:22 @ And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man and [one] who fears God, and one of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and to hear words from you.

mkjv@Acts:10:23 @ Then he called them in and lodged [them]. And on the next day Peter went away with them, and certain brothers from Joppa went with him.

mkjv@Acts:10:24 @ And the next day they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius was waiting for them, and had called together his kinsmen and near friends.

mkjv@Acts:10:25 @ And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him and fell down at [his] feet [and] worshiped.

mkjv@Acts:10:26 @ But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up! I also am a man myself.

mkjv@Acts:10:27 @ And as he talked with him, he went in and found many who had come together.

mkjv@Acts:10:28 @ And he said to them, You know that it is an unlawful thing for a man, a Jew to keep company with or to come near to one of another nation. But God has shown me not to call any man common or unclean.

mkjv@Acts:10:29 @ Therefore I came without complaint, being sent for. I ask, then, for what reason have you sent for me.

mkjv@Acts:10:30 @ And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour. And at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing.

mkjv@Acts:10:31 @ And he said, Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your merciful deeds have been remembered before God.

mkjv@Acts:10:32 @ Therefore send to Joppa and call here Simon whose last name is Peter, he is staying in [the] house of Simon, a tanner by the seaside; who, when he comes, shall speak to you.

mkjv@Acts:10:33 @ Therefore I immediately sent to you, and you have done well [to] come. Now therefore we are all here present before God to hear all things that are commanded you by God.

mkjv@Acts:10:34 @ Then Peter opened [his] mouth and said, Truly I see that God is no respecter of persons;

mkjv@Acts:10:35 @ but in every nation he who fears Him and works righteousness is accepted with Him.

mkjv@Acts:10:36 @ You know the word which [God] sent to the sons of Israel, preaching the gospel of peace by Jesus Christ (He is Lord of all!);

mkjv@Acts:10:37 @ that word which was published throughout all Judea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John proclaimed;

mkjv@Acts:10:38 @ how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with [the] Holy Spirit and with power, and He went about doing good, and healing all those who were oppressed by the Devil, for God was with Him.

mkjv@Acts:10:39 @ And we are witnesses of all things which He did, both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed [Him] and hanged [Him] on a tree;

mkjv@Acts:10:40 @ but God raised Him up the third day and showed Him openly,

mkjv@Acts:10:41 @ not to all the people, but to witnesses hand-picked before by God, [even] to us who ate and drank with Him after He rose from [the] dead.

mkjv@Acts:10:42 @ And He commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is He who was ordained of God [to be] the Judge of [the] living and [the] dead.

mkjv@Acts:10:43 @ All the prophets give witness to Him, [that] through His name whoever believes in Him [shall] receive remission of sins.

mkjv@Acts:10:44 @ While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all those hearing the Word.

mkjv@Acts:10:45 @ And those of the circumcision, who believed (as many as came with Peter), were astonished because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out on the nations also.

mkjv@Acts:10:46 @ For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God. Then Peter answered,

mkjv@Acts:10:47 @ Can anyone forbid water that these, who have received the Holy Ghost as well as we, should not be baptized?

mkjv@Acts:10:48 @ And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they begged him to stay certain days.

mkjv@Acts:11:1 @ And the apostles and brothers who were in Judea heard that the nations had also received the Word of God.

mkjv@Acts:11:2 @ And when Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him,

mkjv@Acts:11:3 @ saying, You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them.

mkjv@Acts:11:4 @ But Peter related [the matter] from the beginning and explained [it] by order to them, saying,

mkjv@Acts:11:5 @ I was in [the] city of Joppa praying. And in an ecstasy I saw a vision, a certain vessel like a sheet coming down, let down from the sky by four corners. And it came even to me.

mkjv@Acts:11:6 @ When I had fastened my eyes on [it], I looked and saw four-footed animals of the earth, and wild beasts, and reptiles, and birds of the heaven.

mkjv@Acts:11:7 @ And I heard a voice saying to me, Arise, Peter! Kill and eat!

mkjv@Acts:11:8 @ But I said, Not so, Lord, for nothing common or unclean has at any time entered into my mouth.

mkjv@Acts:11:9 @ But the voice answered me again from the heaven, What God has made clean, you do not call common.

mkjv@Acts:11:10 @ And this was done three [times], and all were drawn up again into the heaven.

mkjv@Acts:11:11 @ And behold, immediately three men stood at the house in which I was, sent from Caesarea to me.

mkjv@Acts:11:12 @ And the Spirit told me to go with them, not discriminating. And these six brothers [went] with me, and we entered the man's house.

mkjv@Acts:11:13 @ And he declared to us how he had seen an angel in his house, who stood and said to him, Send men to Joppa and call for Simon whose last name is Peter,

mkjv@Acts:11:14 @ who will tell you words by which you and all your house shall be saved.

mkjv@Acts:11:15 @ And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, as on us at [the] beginning.

mkjv@Acts:11:16 @ And I remembered the Word of the Lord, how He said, John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Acts:11:17 @ If God gave to them the same gift as to us, they] having believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to be able to prevent God?

mkjv@Acts:11:18 @ When they heard these things, they were silent and glorified God, saying, Then God has also granted repentance to life to the nations.

mkjv@Acts:11:19 @ Then, indeed, they who were scattered abroad by the persecution that rose about Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, preaching the Word to no one except the Jews.

mkjv@Acts:11:20 @ And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene; who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Hellenists, preaching the gospel of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:11:21 @ And [the] hand of [the] Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:11:22 @ And the Word was heard in the ears of the church in Jerusalem. And they sent out Barnabas, that he should go as far as Antioch;

mkjv@Acts:11:23 @ who was glad when he had come and had seen the grace of God. And he exhorted all with purpose of heart to remain near to the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:11:24 @ For he was a good man and full of [the] Holy Spirit and faith. And many people were added to the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:11:25 @ And Barnabas went out to Tarsus to seek Saul.

mkjv@Acts:11:26 @ And finding him, he brought him to Antioch. And it happened to them a whole year they] were assembled in the church. And they] taught a considerable crowd. And the disciples were first called Christian in Antioch.

mkjv@Acts:11:27 @ And in these days prophets from Jerusalem came to Antioch.

mkjv@Acts:11:28 @ And one of them named Agabus stood up and signified by the Spirit that there should be great famine over the world (which also happened in the [days] of Claudius Caesar).

mkjv@Acts:11:29 @ And the disciples, as any were prospered, determined each of them to send for ministry to those brothers who lived in Judea,

mkjv@Acts:11:30 @ which they also did, sending to the elders by [the] hand of Barnabas and Saul.

mkjv@Acts:12:1 @ And at that time Herod the king threw on [his] hands to oppress some of those of the church.

mkjv@Acts:12:2 @ And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.

mkjv@Acts:12:3 @ And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he went further to seize Peter also. (And they were days of Unleavened [Bread].)

mkjv@Acts:12:4 @ And capturing [him], he put [him] in prison, and delivered [him] to four sets of four soldiers to keep him; intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.

mkjv@Acts:12:5 @ Then, indeed, Peter was kept in prison. But earnest prayer was made to God for him by the church.

mkjv@Acts:12:6 @ And when Herod was about to bring him out, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains. Also guards were keeping the prison before the door.

mkjv@Acts:12:7 @ And behold! An angel of [the] Lord stood by, and a light shone in the building. And striking Peter's side, he raised him up, saying, Rise up quickly! And his chains fell off his hands.

mkjv@Acts:12:8 @ And the angel said to him, Gird yourself and put on your sandals. And he did so. And he says to him, Throw your robe around you and follow me.

mkjv@Acts:12:9 @ And he went out and followed him. And he did not know that this happening through the angel was true, but thought he saw a vision.

mkjv@Acts:12:10 @ When they were past the first and second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, which opened to them of its own accord. And they went out and passed on through one street. And immediately the angel departed from him.

mkjv@Acts:12:11 @ And having come to himself, Peter said, Now I know surely that [the] Lord has sent His angel and has delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and [from] all the expectation of the people of the Jews.

mkjv@Acts:12:12 @ And thinking [about it], he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose last name was Mark; where many had gathered together to pray.

mkjv@Acts:12:13 @ And as Peter knocked [at] the door of the porch, a girl named Rhoda came to listen.

mkjv@Acts:12:14 @ And when she knew Peter's voice, she did not open the porch because of gladness, but running in she reported Peter [was] standing before the porch.

mkjv@Acts:12:15 @ And they said to her, You are mad. But she kept on saying that it was so. And they said, It is his angel.

mkjv@Acts:12:16 @ But Peter continued knocking, and when they had opened and saw him, they were amazed.

mkjv@Acts:12:17 @ But, waving to them with his hand to be quiet, he declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go tell these things to James and to the brothers. And he departed and went into another place.

mkjv@Acts:12:18 @ And day coming, there was not a little stir among the soldiers, saying, What, then, became of Peter.

mkjv@Acts:12:19 @ And searching for him, and not finding [him], examining the guards, Herod commanded them to be led away to death. And he went down from Judea to Caesarea and stayed.

mkjv@Acts:12:20 @ And Herod was in bitter hostility with the men of Tyre and Sidon. But they came to him with one accord and, having made Blastus (who had charge of the king's bedroom) their friend, desired peace, because their country was fed by the king's [country].

mkjv@Acts:12:21 @ And on a certain day, Herod sat on his throne, dressed in royal clothing, and made a speech to them.

mkjv@Acts:12:22 @ And the people gave a shout, [saying, It is] the voice of a god and not of a man!

mkjv@Acts:12:23 @ And immediately the angel of [the] Lord struck him, because he did not give God the glory. And he was eaten by worms and gave up the spirit.

mkjv@Acts:12:24 @ But the Word of God grew and increased.

mkjv@Acts:12:25 @ And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem when they had fulfilled the ministry, having taken with [them] John, whose last name was Mark.

mkjv@Acts:13:1 @ And in Antioch some among the existing church were prophets and teachers. (such as Barnabas, and Simeon who was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, the foster-brother of Herod the tetrarch) and Saul.

mkjv@Acts:13:2 @ [As] they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, So, then, separate Barnabas and Saul to Me for the work to which I have called them.

mkjv@Acts:13:3 @ Then having fasted and prayed and laid hands on them, they let [them] go.

mkjv@Acts:13:4 @ Then these indeed sent out by the Holy Spirit went down to Seleucia. And from there they sailed to Cyprus.

mkjv@Acts:13:5 @ And when they were at Salamis, they announced the Word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they also had John as an assistant.

mkjv@Acts:13:6 @ And when they had gone through the island to Paphos, they found a certain conjurer, a false prophet, a Jew whose name [was] Bar-jesus;

mkjv@Acts:13:7 @ who was with the proconsul of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man. He called for Barnabas and Saul and asked to hear the Word of God.

mkjv@Acts:13:8 @ But Elymas the conjurer (for so his name is, if translated) withstood them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.

mkjv@Acts:13:9 @ Then Saul (who [is] also Paul), filled with [the] Holy Spirit, set his eyes on him

mkjv@Acts:13:10 @ and said, O son of the Devil, full of all deceit and all craftiness, enemy of all righteousness, will you not stop perverting the right ways of [the] Lord?

mkjv@Acts:13:11 @ And now, behold, [the] hand of the Lord [is] on you. And you shall be blind, not seeing the sun for a while. And immediately a mist and a darkness fell on him, and he went about seeking [some to] lead him by the hand.

mkjv@Acts:13:12 @ Then, seeing the thing happening, the proconsul believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:13:13 @ And Paul and those around [him] sailed from Paphos and came to Perga of Pamphylia. And John left them and returned to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:13:14 @ But going through from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day and sat down.

mkjv@Acts:13:15 @ And after the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Men, brothers, if you have any word of comfort for the people, speak.

mkjv@Acts:13:16 @ And rising up and signaling with his hand, Paul said, Men, Israelites, and those fearing God, listen.

mkjv@Acts:13:17 @ The God of this people Israel chose our fathers and exalted the people in their residency in [the] land [of] Egypt, and He brought them out of it with a high arm.

mkjv@Acts:13:18 @ And about the time of forty years He tenderly bore them in the wilderness.

mkjv@Acts:13:19 @ And when He had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave their land to them as an inheritance.

mkjv@Acts:13:20 @ And after that He gave [them] judges for about four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.

mkjv@Acts:13:21 @ And afterward they asked [for] a king. And God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of [the] tribe of Benjamin, [for] forty years.

mkjv@Acts:13:22 @ And when He had removed him, He raised up David to them to be their king; to whom He also witnessed and said, I have found David the [son] of Jesse [to be] a man after My own heart, who shall fulfill all My will.

mkjv@Acts:13:23 @ Of this [man's] seed God has raised to Israel, according to [His] promise, a Savior, Jesus;

mkjv@Acts:13:24 @ John having before proclaimed the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel, before His coming.

mkjv@Acts:13:25 @ And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Who do you think that I am? I am not [He]. But behold, One comes after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to loose.

mkjv@Acts:13:26 @ Men, brothers, sons of [the] race of Abraham, and whoever among you fears God, the word of this salvation is sent to you.

mkjv@Acts:13:27 @ For those living in Jerusalem, and their rulers, not having known this One, and the voices of the prophets being read throughout every sabbath, condemning [Him], they fulfilled [the Scriptures].

mkjv@Acts:13:28 @ And finding not one cause of death [in Him], they begged Pilate to do away with Him.

mkjv@Acts:13:29 @ And when they had fulfilled all that was written concerning Him, taking [Him] down from the tree, they laid [Him] in a tomb.

mkjv@Acts:13:30 @ But God raised Him from [the] dead,

mkjv@Acts:13:31 @ who appeared for many days by those who came up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are His witnesses to the people.

mkjv@Acts:13:32 @ And we preach the gospel to you, the promise made to the fathers,

mkjv@Acts:13:33 @ this God has fulfilled to us their children, raising up Jesus, as also it is written in the second Psalm, You are My Son, this day I have begotten You.

mkjv@Acts:13:34 @ And that He raised Him up from [the] dead, no more to return to corruption, He spoke in this way: I will give you the holy promises of David.

mkjv@Acts:13:35 @ Therefore he also says in another [psalm], You shall not allow Your Holy One to see corruption.

mkjv@Acts:13:36 @ For after he had served [his] own generation by the will of God, David fell asleep and was added to his fathers and saw corruption.

mkjv@Acts:13:37 @ But [He] whom God raised again saw no corruption.

mkjv@Acts:13:38 @ Therefore be it known to you, men, brothers, that through this One the forgiveness of sins is announced to you.

mkjv@Acts:13:39 @ And by Him all who believe are justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.

mkjv@Acts:13:40 @ Therefore beware lest that come on you which is spoken of in the prophets:

mkjv@Acts:13:41 @ Behold, you despisers, and marvel, and perish; for I work a work in your days, a work which you shall in no way believe, though a man declare [it] to you.

mkjv@Acts:13:42 @ And the Jews having gone out of the synagogue, the nations begged that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.

mkjv@Acts:13:43 @ And the synagogue being broken up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.

mkjv@Acts:13:44 @ And on the coming sabbath day almost all the city came together to hear the Word of God.

mkjv@Acts:13:45 @ But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy and contradicted those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.

mkjv@Acts:13:46 @ But speaking boldly, Paul and Barnabas said, It was necessary [for] the word of God to be spoken to you first. But since indeed you put it far from you and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the nations.

mkjv@Acts:13:47 @ For so the Lord has commanded us, [saying], I have set You to be a light of the nations, for salvation to the end of the earth.

mkjv@Acts:13:48 @ And hearing, the nations rejoiced and glorified the Word of the Lord. And as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.

mkjv@Acts:13:49 @ And the Word of the Lord was carried throughout all the country.

mkjv@Acts:13:50 @ But the Jews stirred up the devout and honorable women, and the chief ones of the city, and raised a persecution against Paul and Barnabas. And they threw them out of their borders.

mkjv@Acts:13:51 @ But shaking the dust of their feet off on them, they came into Iconium.

mkjv@Acts:13:52 @ And the disciples were filled with joy and with [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Acts:14:1 @ And it happened in Iconium, they both went together into the synagogue of the Jews, and spoke so as a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.

mkjv@Acts:14:2 @ But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the nations and made them evil-hearted against the brothers.

mkjv@Acts:14:3 @ Therefore they stayed a long time, speaking boldly in the Lord, who bore witness to the word of His grace, giving miracles and wonders to be done by their hands.

mkjv@Acts:14:4 @ But the multitude of the city was divided. And part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

mkjv@Acts:14:5 @ And when there was an assault made by both the nations and the Jews, with their rulers, in order to insult and to stone them,

mkjv@Acts:14:6 @ they were aware of [it] and fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the country around them.

mkjv@Acts:14:7 @ And there they were preaching the gospel.

mkjv@Acts:14:8 @ And a certain man was sitting in Lystra, without strength in the feet, being lame from his mother's womb, who never had walked.

mkjv@Acts:14:9 @ This one heard Paul speaking; [and Paul], looking intently at him, and seeing that he had faith to be healed,

mkjv@Acts:14:10 @ said with a loud voice, Stand up on your feet! And he leaped and walked.

mkjv@Acts:14:11 @ And seeing what Paul did, the crowd lifted up their voice, saying in Lycaonian, The gods have come down to us, becoming like men.

mkjv@Acts:14:12 @ And they called Barnabas Jupiter, and Paul Mercury, because he was the chief speaker.

mkjv@Acts:14:13 @ And the priest of Jupiter, being before their city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, wishing to sacrifice with the crowds.

mkjv@Acts:14:14 @ But hearing [this], the apostles Barnabas and Paul tore their clothes and ran in among the people, crying out

mkjv@Acts:14:15 @ and saying, Men, why do you do these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preaching the gospel to you to turn [you] from these vanities to the living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all things in them;

mkjv@Acts:14:16 @ who in past generations allowed all nations to walk in their [own] ways.

mkjv@Acts:14:17 @ And yet He did not leave Himself without witness, doing good, giving rain and fruitful season to us from heaven, filling our hearts with food and gladness.

mkjv@Acts:14:18 @ And saying these things, they scarcely stopped the people from sacrificing to them.

mkjv@Acts:14:19 @ And Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there, who, having persuaded the people, and having stoned Paul, they drew [him] out of the city, supposing him to have died.

mkjv@Acts:14:20 @ But the disciples surrounding him, he rose up and came into the city. And the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

mkjv@Acts:14:21 @ And preaching the gospel to that city, and having made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and Iconium and Antioch,

mkjv@Acts:14:22 @ confirming the souls of the disciples, calling on them to continue in the faith and that through much tribulation we must enter into the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Acts:14:23 @ And having hand-picked elders for them in every church, and had prayed with fastings, they commended them to the Lord into whom they believed.

mkjv@Acts:14:24 @ And passing through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.

mkjv@Acts:14:25 @ And speaking the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia.

mkjv@Acts:14:26 @ And from there they sailed to Antioch, from where they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.

mkjv@Acts:14:27 @ And having arrived, and gathering the church they related all that God had done with them, and how He had opened the door of faith to the nations.

mkjv@Acts:14:28 @ And they stayed there not a little time with the disciples.

mkjv@Acts:15:1 @ And certain ones who came down from Judea taught the brothers, [saying], Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.

mkjv@Acts:15:2 @ Therefore dissension and not a little disputation occurring by Paul and Barnabas, they appointed Paul and Barnabas and certain others of them to go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders about this question.

mkjv@Acts:15:3 @ And indeed being set forward by the church, they passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the nations. And they caused great joy to all the brothers.

mkjv@Acts:15:4 @ And arriving in Jerusalem, they were received by the church, and [by] the apostles and elders. And [they] declared all things that God had done with them.

mkjv@Acts:15:5 @ But some of those from the sect of the Pharisees, having believed, rose up, saying, It was necessary to circumcise them and to command [them] to keep the law of Moses.

mkjv@Acts:15:6 @ And the apostles and elders were assembled to see about this matter.

mkjv@Acts:15:7 @ And after much disputing, Peter rose up and said to them, Men, brothers, you recognize that from ancient days God chose among us [that] through my mouth the nations [should] hear the word of the gospel, and believe.

mkjv@Acts:15:8 @ And God, who knows the hearts, bore them witness, giving them the Holy Spirit even as to us.

mkjv@Acts:15:9 @ And He put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.

mkjv@Acts:15:10 @ Now therefore why do you tempt God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples, a yoke which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

mkjv@Acts:15:11 @ But we believe that through the grace of [the] Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, according to which manner they also believed.

mkjv@Acts:15:12 @ And all the multitude kept silent and listened to Barnabas and Paul declaring what miracles and wonders God had worked among the nations through them.

mkjv@Acts:15:13 @ And after they were silent, James answered, saying, Men, brothers, listen to me.

mkjv@Acts:15:14 @ Even as Simon has declared [how] God [at] the first visited the nations to take out of them a people for His name.

mkjv@Acts:15:15 @ And the words of the prophets agree to this; as it is written,

mkjv@Acts:15:16 @ After this I will return and will build again the tabernacle of David [which] has fallen down; and I will build again its ruins, and I will set it up,

mkjv@Acts:15:17 @ so those men who are left might seek after the Lord, and all the nations on whom My name has been called, says the Lord, who does all these things.

mkjv@Acts:15:18 @ All His works are known to God from eternity.

mkjv@Acts:15:19 @ Therefore my judgment is that we do not trouble those who have turned to God from among the nations,

mkjv@Acts:15:20 @ but that we write to them that they should abstain from pollutions of idols, and [from] fornication, and [from] things strangled, and from blood.

mkjv@Acts:15:21 @ For Moses from ages past has those in every city proclaiming him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.

mkjv@Acts:15:22 @ Then it pleased the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men from them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; Judas, whose last name was Barsabas; and Silas, chief men among the brothers.

mkjv@Acts:15:23 @ And they wrote these things by their hand: The apostles and elders and brothers [send] greeting to the brothers, from [the] nations in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia.

mkjv@Acts:15:24 @ Because we have heard that certain ones who went out from us have troubled you with words, unsettling your souls, saying, Be circumcised and keep the law! (to whom we gave no such command);

mkjv@Acts:15:25 @ it seemed [good] to us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

mkjv@Acts:15:26 @ men who have given up their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Acts:15:27 @ Therefore we have sent Judas and Silas, who will also announce [to you] the same things by word.

mkjv@Acts:15:28 @ For it seemed [good] to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay on you no greater burden than these necessary things:

mkjv@Acts:15:29 @ that you abstain from meats offered to idols, and [from] blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication; from which, if you keep yourselves, you shall do well. Be prospered.

mkjv@Acts:15:30 @ Then indeed they being let go, they came to Antioch. And gathering the multitude, [they] delivered the letter.

mkjv@Acts:15:31 @ And when they had read [it], they rejoiced at the comfort.

mkjv@Acts:15:32 @ And Judas and Silas, also being prophets themselves, exhorted the brothers with many words and confirmed [them].

mkjv@Acts:15:33 @ And remaining for a time, they were let go in peace from the brothers to the apostles.

mkjv@Acts:15:34 @ But it pleased Silas to remain there.

mkjv@Acts:15:35 @ Also Paul and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the gospel, the Word of the Lord, with many others also.

mkjv@Acts:15:36 @ And some days afterward, Paul said to Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brothers in every city where we have announced the Word of the Lord, to see] how they are holding to it.

mkjv@Acts:15:37 @ And Barnabas determined to take with [them] John, he being called Mark.

mkjv@Acts:15:38 @ But Paul thought it well not to take that one with [them], he having withdrawn from them from Pamphylia, and did not go with them to the work.

mkjv@Acts:15:39 @ Then there was sharp feeling, so as to separate them from each other. And taking Mark, Barnabas sailed to Cyprus.

mkjv@Acts:15:40 @ But choosing Silas, Paul went out, being commended by the brothers to the grace of God,

mkjv@Acts:15:41 @ passing through Syria and Cilicia, making the churches strong.

mkjv@Acts:16:1 @ And he came to Derbe and Lystra. And behold, a certain disciple named Timothy was there, [the] son of a woman who was a Jewess and who believed. But [his] father [was] a Greek.

mkjv@Acts:16:2 @ [He] was well reported of by the brothers at Lystra and Iconium.

mkjv@Acts:16:3 @ Paul wanted him to go with him, and taking [him he] circumcised him, because of the Jews who were in those places; for they all knew that his father was a Greek.

mkjv@Acts:16:4 @ And as they passed through the cities, they delivered to them the commandments to keep, the ones that were ordained by the apostles and elders in Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:16:5 @ Then indeed the churches were established in the faith and increased in number daily.

mkjv@Acts:16:6 @ And coming through the Phrygian and the Galatian region; and by the Holy Spirit being forbidden to speak the Word in Asia;

mkjv@Acts:16:7 @ having come to Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia. But the Spirit did not allow them.

mkjv@Acts:16:8 @ Then passing by Mysia, they came down into Troas.

mkjv@Acts:16:9 @ And a vision appeared to Paul in the night. A certain man of Macedonia stood, begging him, saying, Come over into Macedonia and help us!

mkjv@Acts:16:10 @ And after he saw the vision, we immediately tried to go into Macedonia, gathering that the Lord had called us in order to preach the gospel [to] them.

mkjv@Acts:16:11 @ Then having set sail from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next [day] to Neapolis;

mkjv@Acts:16:12 @ and from there to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia, a colony. And we continued spending time in that city some days.

mkjv@Acts:16:13 @ And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was usually made. And we sat down and spoke to the women who came together [there].

mkjv@Acts:16:14 @ And a certain woman named Lydia heard us, a seller of purple of the city of Thyatira, who worshiped God; whose heart the Lord opened, so that she attended to the things which were spoken by Paul.

mkjv@Acts:16:15 @ And when she was baptized, she and her household, she begged us, saying, If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and stay. And she constrained us.

mkjv@Acts:16:16 @ And as we went to prayer, it happened that a certain girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much gain by divining.

mkjv@Acts:16:17 @ The same followed Paul and us and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the Most High God, who are announcing to us the way of salvation.

mkjv@Acts:16:18 @ And she did this many days. But being distressed, and turning to the [demonic] spirit, Paul said, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her! And it came out in that hour.

mkjv@Acts:16:19 @ And when her masters saw that the hope of their gain went out, having seized Paul and Silas, they dragged [them] to the market before the rulers.

mkjv@Acts:16:20 @ And bringing them near to the judges, they said, These men, being Jews, are exceedingly troubling our city.

mkjv@Acts:16:21 @ And they teach customs which are not lawful for us to receive nor to do, being Romans.

mkjv@Acts:16:22 @ And the crowd rose up against them. And tearing off their clothes, the judges ordered [them] to be flogged.

mkjv@Acts:16:23 @ And after laying on them many stripes, they threw [them] into prison, commanding the jailor to keep them safely;

mkjv@Acts:16:24 @ who, having received such a command, thrust them into the inner prison and made their feet fast in the stocks.

mkjv@Acts:16:25 @ And toward midnight Paul and Silas prayed and praised God in a hymn. And the prisoners listened to them.

mkjv@Acts:16:26 @ And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken. And immediately all the doors were opened and all the bonds were loosened.

mkjv@Acts:16:27 @ And being awakened, and seeing the doors of the prison being open, drawing a sword, the jailer was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.

mkjv@Acts:16:28 @ But Paul called out with a loud voice, saying, Do yourself no harm, for we are all here.

mkjv@Acts:16:29 @ Then asking for a light he rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas.

mkjv@Acts:16:30 @ And leading them outside, he said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?

mkjv@Acts:16:31 @ And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved, and your household.

mkjv@Acts:16:32 @ And they spoke the Word of the Lord to him, and to all who were in his household.

mkjv@Acts:16:33 @ And taking them in that hour of the night, he washed from [their] stripes. And he was baptized, he and all his, immediately.

mkjv@Acts:16:34 @ And bringing them up to the house, he set a table before [them] and rejoiced, believing in God with all his household.

mkjv@Acts:16:35 @ And day coming, the judges sent the floggers, saying, Let those men go.

mkjv@Acts:16:36 @ And the jailer spoke these words to Paul: The judges have sent to let you go. Now therefore depart, and go in peace.

mkjv@Acts:16:37 @ But Paul said to them, Having beaten us publicly, men who are Romans and uncondemned, they threw [us] into prison. And now do they put us out secretly? No indeed! But coming themselves, let them bring us out.

mkjv@Acts:16:38 @ And the floggers reported these words to the judges. And hearing that they were Romans, they were afraid.

mkjv@Acts:16:39 @ And coming they begged [them]. And bringing [them] out, [they] asked [them] to depart out of the city.

mkjv@Acts:16:40 @ And going out from the prison, [they] entered into [the house of] Lydia. And seeing the brothers, they comforted them and departed.

mkjv@Acts:17:1 @ And traveling through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.

mkjv@Acts:17:2 @ And according to Paul's custom, he went in to them and reasoned with them out of the Scriptures on three sabbaths,

mkjv@Acts:17:3 @ opening and setting forth that Christ must have suffered, and to have risen again from [the] dead; and that this Jesus whom I preach to you is Christ.

mkjv@Acts:17:4 @ And some of them believed and joined themselves to Paul and Silas, both a great multitude of the worshiping Greeks, and not a few of the chief women.

mkjv@Acts:17:5 @ But the disobeying Jews becoming jealous, and having taken aside some wicked men of the market-loafers, and gathering a crowd, they set all the city in an uproar. And coming on the house of Jason, [they] sought to bring them out to the mob.

mkjv@Acts:17:6 @ And not finding them, they drew Jason and certain brothers before the city judges, crying, These who have turned the world upside down have come here too,

mkjv@Acts:17:7 @ whom Jason has received. And these all act contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:17:8 @ And hearing these things, they troubled the crowd and the city judge.

mkjv@Acts:17:9 @ And taking security from Jason and from the rest, they let them go.

mkjv@Acts:17:10 @ And the brothers immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. They, when they arrived, went into the synagogue of the Jews.

mkjv@Acts:17:11 @ And these were more noble than those of Thessalonica, in that [they received] the Word with all readiness of mind and searched the Scriptures daily [to see] if those things [were so].

mkjv@Acts:17:12 @ Therefore many of them believed, and quite a few of honorable Greek women and men.

mkjv@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews from Thessalonica knew that the Word of God was preached by Paul at Berea, they came there also and stirred up the people.

mkjv@Acts:17:14 @ And then immediately the brothers sent Paul away to go towards the sea, but both Silas and Timothy stayed there.

mkjv@Acts:17:15 @ And those conducting Paul brought him to Athens. And receiving a command to Silas and Timothy to come to him with all speed, they departed.

mkjv@Acts:17:16 @ But awaiting them in Athens, Paul's spirit was pained within him, seeing the city full of idols.

mkjv@Acts:17:17 @ Then indeed he addressed the Jews in the synagogue, and those worshiping, and daily in the market, to those happening to be [there].

mkjv@Acts:17:18 @ And certain philosophers from the Epicureans and from the Stoics met him. And some said, What will this babbler say? And others said, He seems to be an announcer of foreign demons (because he preached Jesus and the resurrection to them).

mkjv@Acts:17:19 @ And taking hold of him, they led [him] to the Areopagus, saying, Are we able to know what [is] this new doctrine of which you speak?

mkjv@Acts:17:20 @ For you bring certain strange things to our ears, therefore we are minded to know what these things mean.

mkjv@Acts:17:21 @ (For all the Athenians and strangers who were [there] spent their time in nothing else except to tell or to hear something newer.)

mkjv@Acts:17:22 @ And standing in [the] middle of the Areopagus, Paul said, Men, Athenians, I see that you [are] fearful of gods in everything.

mkjv@Acts:17:23 @ For [as I] passed by and saw the things you worship, I also found an altar with this inscription: TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Not knowing then whom you worship, I make Him known to you.

mkjv@Acts:17:24 @ The God who made the world and all things in it, since He is Lord of Heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands,

mkjv@Acts:17:25 @ nor is served with men's hands, [as though] He needed anything, [since] He gives life and breath and all things to all.

mkjv@Acts:17:26 @ And He has made all nations of men of one blood to dwell on all the face of the earth, ordaining fore-appointed seasons and boundaries of their dwelling,

mkjv@Acts:17:27 @ to seek the Lord, if perhaps they might feel after Him and find Him, though indeed [He] is not far from each one of us.

mkjv@Acts:17:28 @ For in Him we live and move and have our being, as also certain of your own poets have said, For we are also His offspring.

mkjv@Acts:17:29 @ Then being offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like gold or silver or stone, engraved by art and man's imagination.

mkjv@Acts:17:30 @ Truly, then, God overlooking the times of ignorance, now He strictly commands all men everywhere to repent,

mkjv@Acts:17:31 @ because He has appointed a day in which He is going to judge the world in righteousness by a Man whom He appointed, having given proof to all [by] raising Him from [the] dead.

mkjv@Acts:17:32 @ And hearing [of] a resurrection of [the] dead, some indeed mocked; and others said, We will hear you again concerning this.

mkjv@Acts:17:33 @ And so Paul departed from among them.

mkjv@Acts:17:34 @ But certain men joined themselves to him and believed; among whom [were] Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

mkjv@Acts:18:1 @ And after these things Paul departed from Athens and came to Corinth.

mkjv@Acts:18:2 @ And finding a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy [with] his wife Priscilla (because Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome) Paul came to them.

mkjv@Acts:18:3 @ And because [he] was of the same trade, he stayed and worked with them; for they were tentmakers by occupation.

mkjv@Acts:18:4 @ And he reasoned in the synagogue on every sabbath, persuading both Jews and Greeks.

mkjv@Acts:18:5 @ And when Silas and Timothy had come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit and testified to the Jews [that] Jesus [is] the Christ.

mkjv@Acts:18:6 @ And they resisting and blaspheming, shaking [his] garment, he said to them, Your blood [is] on your own heads. I [am] pure from [it]. From now on I will go to the nations.

mkjv@Acts:18:7 @ And he departed from there and entered into [the] house of one named Justus, [one] worshiping God, whose house was next to the synagogue.

mkjv@Acts:18:8 @ And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house. And hearing this, many of the Corinthians believed and were baptized.

mkjv@Acts:18:9 @ And the Lord spoke to Paul in [the] night by a vision, Do not be afraid, but speak, and be not silent.

mkjv@Acts:18:10 @ For I am with you, and no one shall set on you to hurt you, for I have many people in this city.

mkjv@Acts:18:11 @ And he continued [there] a year and six months, teaching the Word of God among them.

mkjv@Acts:18:12 @ But Gallio [being] pro-consul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rushed against Paul and brought him to the judgment seat,

mkjv@Acts:18:13 @ saying, This one persuades men to worship God contrary to the Law.

mkjv@Acts:18:14 @ And Paul being about to open [his] mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If indeed then, it was anything wrong or wicked criminality, O Jews, according to reason I would endure you.

mkjv@Acts:18:15 @ But if it is a question of a word and names, and [of] your law, you look [to it]. For I do not wish to be a judge of such things.

mkjv@Acts:18:16 @ And he drove them from the judgment seat.

mkjv@Acts:18:17 @ And all the Greeks seized Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat [him] before the judgment seat. And Gallio did not care for any of these things.

mkjv@Acts:18:18 @ And Paul having remained many days more, taking leave of the brothers, he sailed from there into Syria. And Priscilla and Aquila were with him. And Paul had shorn his head in Cenchrea, for he had a vow.

mkjv@Acts:18:19 @ And he came to Ephesus and left them there. But he himself entered into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.

mkjv@Acts:18:20 @ And they asking [him] to stay a longer time with them, he did not consent

mkjv@Acts:18:21 @ but took leave of them, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that is coming in Jerusalem, but I will return again to you, God willing. And he sailed from Ephesus.

mkjv@Acts:18:22 @ And when he had landed at Caesarea and had gone up to greet the church, he went down to Antioch.

mkjv@Acts:18:23 @ And after he had spent some time [there], he departed and went over the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.

mkjv@Acts:18:24 @ And a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by birth, an eloquent man mighty in the Scriptures, came to Ephesus.

mkjv@Acts:18:25 @ This man was instructed in the way of the Lord. And [being] fervent in the spirit, he spoke and taught the things of the Lord diligently, knowing only the baptism of John.

mkjv@Acts:18:26 @ And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue. And Aquila and Priscilla heard him, and they took him and expounded to him the way of God more perfectly.

mkjv@Acts:18:27 @ And intending to pass into Achaia, being encouraged, the brothers wrote to the disciples to welcome him; who, having arrived, very much helped those who had believed through grace.

mkjv@Acts:18:28 @ For he mightily confuted the Jews publicly, proving by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.

mkjv@Acts:19:1 @ And it happened in the [time] Apollos was at Corinth, Paul [was] passing through the higher parts to Ephesus. And finding certain disciples,

mkjv@Acts:19:2 @ he said to them, Have you received [the] Holy Spirit since you believed? And they said to him, We did not so much as hear whether [the] Holy Spirit is.

mkjv@Acts:19:3 @ And he said to them, Then to what were you baptized? And they said, To John's baptism.

mkjv@Acts:19:4 @ And Paul said, John truly baptized [with] the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe into Him coming after him, that is, into Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Acts:19:5 @ And hearing, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:19:6 @ And as Paul laid [his] hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

mkjv@Acts:19:7 @ And all of the men were about twelve.

mkjv@Acts:19:8 @ And going into the synagogue, he spoke boldly for three months, reasoning and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Acts:19:9 @ But when some were hardened and did not believe, speaking evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of one Tyrannus.

mkjv@Acts:19:10 @ And this happened over two years, so that all those living in Asia heard the Word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.

mkjv@Acts:19:11 @ And God did works of power through the hands of Paul,

mkjv@Acts:19:12 @ so that even handkerchiefs or aprons from his skin being brought onto the sick, the diseases were released, and the evil spirits went out of them.

mkjv@Acts:19:13 @ And certain from the strolling Jews, exorcists, undertook to name the name of the Lord Jesus over those having evil spirits, saying, We adjure you [by] Jesus whom Paul preaches.

mkjv@Acts:19:14 @ And there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did so.

mkjv@Acts:19:15 @ But answering the evil spirit said, Jesus I know, and I comprehend Paul, but who are you?

mkjv@Acts:19:16 @ And the man in whom the evil spirit resided leaped on them, and overcoming them he was strong against them, so that they fled out of the house naked and wounded.

mkjv@Acts:19:17 @ And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks who lived at Ephesus, and fear fell on all of them, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

mkjv@Acts:19:18 @ And many who believed came and confessed and showed their deeds.

mkjv@Acts:19:19 @ Also many of those practicing the curious arts, bringing together the books, burned [them] before all. And they counted the prices of them and found [it to be] fifty thousand [pieces] of silver.

mkjv@Acts:19:20 @ So the Word of God grew mightily and prevailed.

mkjv@Acts:19:21 @ After these things were ended, passing through Macedonia and Achaia, Paul purposed in the spirit to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have come there, I must also see Rome.

mkjv@Acts:19:22 @ And sending into Macedonia two who ministered to him, Timothy and Erastus, he stayed in Asia for a time.

mkjv@Acts:19:23 @ And about that time there was not a little a stir about the Way.

mkjv@Acts:19:24 @ For a certain silversmith named Demetrius was making silver temples of Artemis, providing not a little trade [for] the craftsmen.

mkjv@Acts:19:25 @ And assembling the workmen about such things, he said, Men, you know that from this trade is our wealth.

mkjv@Acts:19:26 @ And you see and hear that, not only at Ephesus, but almost all Asia, this Paul having persuaded, he has perverted a huge crowd, saying that those which are made with hands are no gods.

mkjv@Acts:19:27 @ And not only is this dangerous to us, our share coming into dispute, but also the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be counted for nothing, and her magnificence is also about to be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worships.

mkjv@Acts:19:28 @ And hearing, and becoming full of anger, they cried out, saying, Great [is] Artemis of [the] Ephesians.

mkjv@Acts:19:29 @ And all the city was filled with confusion. And they rushed with one accord to the theater, keeping a firm grip on Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, traveling companions of Paul.

mkjv@Acts:19:30 @ And Paul intending to go in to the mob, the disciples did not allow him.

mkjv@Acts:19:31 @ And some of the chief men of Asia, being his friends, sent to him, begging [him] not to give himself into the theater.

mkjv@Acts:19:32 @ Then indeed others cried out, some other things; for the assembly was confused, and most of them did not know why they had come together.

mkjv@Acts:19:33 @ And they dragged Alexander forward out of the crowd, the Jews thrusting him forward. And waving [his] hand Alexander desired to defend himself to the mob.

mkjv@Acts:19:34 @ But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice cried out for two hours' [time], Great [is] Artemis of [the] Ephesians!

mkjv@Acts:19:35 @ And quieting the crowd, the town clerk said, Men, Ephesians! What one of you does not know that the city of the Ephesians is a worshiper of the great goddess Artemis, and of That Fallen from the Sky?

mkjv@Acts:19:36 @ Since these things cannot be spoken against, you ought to be quiet and to do nothing rashly.

mkjv@Acts:19:37 @ For you have brought these men, who are neither robbers of churches nor blasphemers of your goddess.

mkjv@Acts:19:38 @ Therefore if Demetrius and those craftsmen with him truly have a matter against anyone, the court days are [kept], and there are proconsuls. Let them plead against one another.

mkjv@Acts:19:39 @ But if you ask anything concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly.

mkjv@Acts:19:40 @ For we are in danger to be accused of revolt concerning today; there being no cause by which we may give an account of this crowding together.

mkjv@Acts:20:1 @ And after the uproar had ceased, calling the disciples and greeting [them], Paul left to go into Macedonia.

mkjv@Acts:20:2 @ And passing through those parts, and exhorting them with much speech, he came into Greece.

mkjv@Acts:20:3 @ And spending three months [there], there [being] a plot against him by the Jews, being about to sail into Syria, he proposed to return through Macedonia.

mkjv@Acts:20:4 @ And Sopater of Berea accompanied him into Asia, and Aristarchus and Secundus of the Thessalonians, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus as far as Asia.

mkjv@Acts:20:5 @ Going before, these waited for us at Troas.

mkjv@Acts:20:6 @ And after the days of Unleavened [Bread], we sailed away from Philippi and came to them at Troas [in] five days, where we stayed seven days.

mkjv@Acts:20:7 @ And on the first of the sabbaths, the disciples having been assembled to break bread, being about to depart on the morrow, Paul reasoned to them. And he continued his speech until midnight.

mkjv@Acts:20:8 @ And there were many lights in the upper room where they were assembled.

mkjv@Acts:20:9 @ And a certain young man named Eutychus [was] sitting on the window sill, Paul reasoning for a longer time, being overborne by sleep, he fell down from the third floor, and was taken up dead.

mkjv@Acts:20:10 @ And Paul went down and fell on him, and embracing [him] said, Do not be terrified, for his soul is in him.

mkjv@Acts:20:11 @ And going up, and breaking bread, and tasting, and conversing over a long [time], until daybreak, he went out thus.

mkjv@Acts:20:12 @ And they brought the young man alive, and were not a little comforted.

mkjv@Acts:20:13 @ And going ahead onto the ship, we sailed to Assos, there intending to take in Paul; for so he had appointed, intending himself to go on foot.

mkjv@Acts:20:14 @ And when he met with us at Assos, we took him in and came to Mitylene.

mkjv@Acts:20:15 @ And we sailed from there and came the next [day] across from Chios. And the next [day] we arrived at Samos, and we stayed at Trogyllium. And the next [day] we came to Miletus.

mkjv@Acts:20:16 @ For Paul had determined to sail past Ephesus, so that he might not lose time in Asia; for, if it were possible for him, he hastened to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.

mkjv@Acts:20:17 @ And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called the elders of the church.

mkjv@Acts:20:18 @ And when they had come to him, he said to them, You know how I was with you at all times, from [the] first day I arrived in Asia,

mkjv@Acts:20:19 @ serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and many tears and temptations happening to me through the plots of the Jews;

mkjv@Acts:20:20 @ [and] how I kept back nothing that was profitable, but have shown you and have taught you publicly, and from house to house,

mkjv@Acts:20:21 @ testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Acts:20:22 @ And now, behold, I am going bound by the Spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall happen to me there,

mkjv@Acts:20:23 @ except that the Holy Spirit witnesses in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions await me.

mkjv@Acts:20:24 @ But none of these things move me, neither do I count my life dear to myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus [Christ], to testify fully the gospel of the grace of God.

mkjv@Acts:20:25 @ And now, behold, I know that you all will see my face no more, among whom I went proclaiming the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Acts:20:26 @ Therefore I testify to you on this day that I [am] pure from the blood of all.

mkjv@Acts:20:27 @ For I did not keep back from declaring to you all the counsel of God.

mkjv@Acts:20:28 @ Therefore take heed to yourselves, and to all the flock over which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to feed the church of God which He has purchased with [His] own blood.

mkjv@Acts:20:29 @ For I know this, that after my departure grievous wolves shall enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

mkjv@Acts:20:30 @ Also men shall arise from your own selves, speaking perverse things in order to draw disciples away after them.

mkjv@Acts:20:31 @ Therefore watch and remember that [for the time] of three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.

mkjv@Acts:20:32 @ And now, brothers, I commend you to God, and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and to give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

mkjv@Acts:20:33 @ I have coveted no man's silver or gold or apparel.

mkjv@Acts:20:34 @ Yea, you yourselves know that these hands have ministered to my needs, and to those who were with me.

mkjv@Acts:20:35 @ I have shown you all things, that working in this way we ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.

mkjv@Acts:20:36 @ And saying these things, kneeling, he prayed with them all.

mkjv@Acts:20:37 @ And there was much weeping of all, and falling on the neck of Paul, they ardently kissed him,

mkjv@Acts:20:38 @ grieving most of all over the word which he had spoken, that they should see his face no more. And they went with him to the ship.

mkjv@Acts:21:1 @ And it happened when it was time to sail, we having been torn away from them, running direct we came to Cos; and on the next [day] to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.

mkjv@Acts:21:2 @ And finding a ship sailing over to Phoenicia, going on board, we set sail.

mkjv@Acts:21:3 @ And sighting Cyprus, and leaving it on the left, we sailed into Syria, and came down to Tyre. For the ship was to unload its cargo there.

mkjv@Acts:21:4 @ And finding disciples, we stayed there seven days; who said to Paul through the Spirit that he should not go up to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:21:5 @ But when it was [time to] finish the days, going out, we traveled on. [And they] with all [the] women and children went with us as far as outside the city. And we kneeled down on the shore and prayed.

mkjv@Acts:21:6 @ And giving parting greetings to one another, we went up into the ship; and they returned to their own things.

mkjv@Acts:21:7 @ And finishing the voyage from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais. And greeting the brothers, we stayed with them one day.

mkjv@Acts:21:8 @ And the next [day] those around [him] going out, Paul came to Caesarea. And entering the house of Philip the evangelist, [he] being of the seven, we stayed with him.

mkjv@Acts:21:9 @ And there were four virgin daughters to this one, who prophesied.

mkjv@Acts:21:10 @ And as we stayed more days, a certain prophet from Judea named Agabus came down.

mkjv@Acts:21:11 @ And coming to us, and taking Paul's belt, and binding his hands and feet, he said, The Holy Spirit says these [things]: So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man whose belt this is, and will deliver [him] into the hands of the] nations.

mkjv@Acts:21:12 @ And when we heard these things, both we and those of [the] place begged him not to go up to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:21:13 @ Then Paul answered, What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:21:14 @ And he not being persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be [done].

mkjv@Acts:21:15 @ And after those days, making ready, we went up to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:21:16 @ Also [some] of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, bringing Mnason, a certain Cypriot, an old disciple with whom we were to lodge.

mkjv@Acts:21:17 @ And we being in Jerusalem, the brothers received us gladly.

mkjv@Acts:21:18 @ And on the next [day] Paul went with us to James. And all the elders were present.

mkjv@Acts:21:19 @ And having greeted them, he related one by one what things God had done among the nations by his ministry.

mkjv@Acts:21:20 @ And hearing, they glorified the Lord, and said to him, You see, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are who believe, and they are all zealous of the law.

mkjv@Acts:21:21 @ And they are informed concerning you, that you teach all the Jews who are among the nations to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise [their] children, nor to walk after the customs.

mkjv@Acts:21:22 @ What is it therefore? At all events a multitude will come together, for they will hear that you have come.

mkjv@Acts:21:23 @ Therefore do this, what we say to you: We have four men who have a vow on themselves;

mkjv@Acts:21:24 @ taking them, be purified with them, and be at expense for them, so that they may shave [their] heads. And all may know that what they have been told about you is nothing, but you yourself also walk orderly and keep the Law.

mkjv@Acts:21:25 @ And as to the nations who believe, we joined in writing, judging them to observe no such things, except only that they keep themselves from both idol sacrifice, and blood, and a thing strangled, and [from] fornication.

mkjv@Acts:21:26 @ Then taking the men on the next day, being purified with them, Paul went into the temple, declaring the fulfillment of the days of the purification, until an offering should be offered for each of them.

mkjv@Acts:21:27 @ And when the seven days were about to be completed, the Jews who were from Asia, having seen him in the temple, stirred up all the crowd and laid hands on him,

mkjv@Acts:21:28 @ crying out, Men, Israelites, help! This is the man who teaches all everywhere against the people and the Law and this place. And even he brought Greeks into the temple and has polluted this holy place.

mkjv@Acts:21:29 @ (For they had seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city before, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)

mkjv@Acts:21:30 @ And all the city was moved, and the people ran together. And laying hands on Paul, they drew him outside of the temple. And immediately the doors were shut.

mkjv@Acts:21:31 @ And as they [were] seeking to kill him, the news came to the chiliarch of the cohort, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.

mkjv@Acts:21:32 @ [He] immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down to them. And seeing the chiliarch and the soldiers, they quit beating Paul.

mkjv@Acts:21:33 @ Then going near, the chiliarch laid hold on him, and commanded [him] to be bound with two chains. And [he] demanded who he was and what he had done.

mkjv@Acts:21:34 @ And others cried something else in the crowd, and not being able to know the certainty on account of the uproar, he commanded him to be carried into the fortress.

mkjv@Acts:21:35 @ And when he came on the stairs, it happened that he was carried by the soldiers, because of the violence of the crowd.

mkjv@Acts:21:36 @ For the multitude of the people followed after, crying, Away with him!

mkjv@Acts:21:37 @ And as Paul was about to be led into the fortress, he said to the chiliarch, Is it lawful for me to say a thing to you? And he said, Do you know Greek?

mkjv@Acts:21:38 @ Then are you not the Egyptian who before these days caused a riot, and led four thousand men of the assassins out into the wilderness?

mkjv@Acts:21:39 @ But Paul said, I am a man, a Jew of Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen [of] no small city. And I beseech you, allow me to speak to the people.

mkjv@Acts:21:40 @ And he allowing him, standing on the stairs, Paul signaled with [his] hand to the people. And much silence taking place, he spoke in the Hebrew dialect, saying:

mkjv@Acts:22:1 @ Men, brothers and fathers! Hear my defense now to you.

mkjv@Acts:22:2 @ And hearing that he spoke to them in the Hebrew dialect, they all the more kept silence. And he said,

mkjv@Acts:22:3 @ I am truly a man, a Jew born in Tarsus in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the exactness of the law of the fathers, being a zealous one of God, as you all are today.

mkjv@Acts:22:4 @ [I] persecuted this Way as far as death, binding and delivering both men and women into prisons;

mkjv@Acts:22:5 @ as also the high priest bears witness to me, and all the elderhood. And receiving letters from [them] to the brothers, I traveled into Damascus indeed to lead those being bound to Jerusalem, in order that they might be punished.

mkjv@Acts:22:6 @ And it happened to me, traveling and drawing near to Damascus: suddenly, about midday, a great light out of the heaven shone around me.

mkjv@Acts:22:7 @ And I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?

mkjv@Acts:22:8 @ And I answered, Who are you, lord? And he said to me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you persecute.

mkjv@Acts:22:9 @ And they who were with me indeed saw the light and were afraid. But they did not hear the voice of Him who spoke to me.

mkjv@Acts:22:10 @ And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said to me, Arise and go into Damascus. And there it shall be told you all things which are appointed for you to do.

mkjv@Acts:22:11 @ And I did not see, because of the glory of that light; being led by the hand of those who were with me, I came into Damascus.

mkjv@Acts:22:12 @ And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, testified to by all the Jews who lived [there],

mkjv@Acts:22:13 @ coming to me and standing by, said to me, Brother Saul, look up! And the same hour I looked up on him.

mkjv@Acts:22:14 @ And he said, The God of our fathers has chosen you to know His will and to see the Just One, and to hear a voice out of His mouth.

mkjv@Acts:22:15 @ For you shall be His witness to all men of what you have seen and heard.

mkjv@Acts:22:16 @ And now what do you intend? Arise and be baptized and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:22:17 @ And it happened to me, I returning to Jerusalem and praying in the temple, I became in an ecstasy.

mkjv@Acts:22:18 @ And I saw Him say to me, Hurry and go quickly out of Jerusalem, for they will not receive your testimony concerning Me.

mkjv@Acts:22:19 @ And I said, Lord, they know that I was imprisoning and beating those who believed on You throughout the synagogues.

mkjv@Acts:22:20 @ And when the blood of Your martyr Stephen was poured out, I also was standing by and consenting to his death, and holding the garments of those who killed him.

mkjv@Acts:22:21 @ And He said to me, Go, for I will send you far away to the nations.

mkjv@Acts:22:22 @ And they listened to him until this word, and [then] they lifted up their voice, saying, Take such a one from the earth! For it is not fitting that he should live.

mkjv@Acts:22:23 @ And as they shouted and tore [their] garments, and threw dust into the air,

mkjv@Acts:22:24 @ the chiliarch commanded him to be brought into the fortress, saying for him to be examined by scourging, so that he might know why they cried out so against him.

mkjv@Acts:22:25 @ And as they stretched him with thongs, Paul said to the centurion who stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman and uncondemned?

mkjv@Acts:22:26 @ And hearing, coming near the centurion reported to the chiliarch, saying, Watch what you are about to do, for this man is a Roman.

mkjv@Acts:22:27 @ And coming up the chiliarch said to him, Tell me, are you a Roman? And He said, Yes.

mkjv@Acts:22:28 @ And the chiliarch answered, With a great sum I bought this citizenship. And Paul said, But I was even born [free].

mkjv@Acts:22:29 @ Then immediately, those being about to examine him stood away from him. And the chiliarch also was afraid, fully knowing that he was a Roman, and that he had bound him.

mkjv@Acts:22:30 @ On the next day, he desiring to know with certainty why he was accused by the Jews, he freed him from [his] bonds, and commanded the chief priests and all their sanhedrin to appear. And bringing Paul down, [he] set [him among them.

mkjv@Acts:23:1 @ And looking earnestly on the sanhedrin, Paul said, Men, brothers, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.

mkjv@Acts:23:2 @ And the high priest Ananias commanded those who stood by him to strike him on the mouth.

mkjv@Acts:23:3 @ Then Paul said to him, God shall strike you, whitened wall! For do you sit judging me according to the Law, and against law command me to be stricken?

mkjv@Acts:23:4 @ And they who stood by him said, Do you revile God's high priest?

mkjv@Acts:23:5 @ Then Paul said, I did not know, brothers, that he was the high priest; for it is written, You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people.

mkjv@Acts:23:6 @ But when Paul saw that the one part were Sadducees and the other part Pharisees, he cried out in the sanhedrin, Men! Brothers! I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee! I am being judged because of the hope and resurrection of [the] dead.

mkjv@Acts:23:7 @ And when he had said this, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees; and the multitude was divided.

mkjv@Acts:23:8 @ For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit; but the Pharisees confess both.

mkjv@Acts:23:9 @ And there arose a great cry. And the scribes [who were] on the Pharisees' side arose and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man. But if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him, let us not fight against God.

mkjv@Acts:23:10 @ And dissension arising, the chiliarch, fearing lest Paul should have been pulled in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and to take him from among them by force, and to bring [him] into the fortress.

mkjv@Acts:23:11 @ And the following night the Lord stood by him and said, Be of good cheer, Paul, for as you have testified of Me in Jerusalem, so you also must bear witness at Rome.

mkjv@Acts:23:12 @ And when [it] became day, some of the Jews banded together and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink until they had killed Paul.

mkjv@Acts:23:13 @ And they who made this conspiracy were more than forty.

mkjv@Acts:23:14 @ And they came to the chief priests and elders and said, We have bound ourselves under a great curse that we will eat nothing until we have killed Paul.

mkjv@Acts:23:15 @ Now therefore you, with the sanhedrin, inform the chiliarch that he bring him down to you tomorrow, as though you would inquire something more perfectly regarding him. And we are ready to put him to death before he comes near.

mkjv@Acts:23:16 @ And hearing of the ambush, Paul's sister's son, having come near, and entering into the fortress, he reported to Paul.

mkjv@Acts:23:17 @ And calling one of the centurions, Paul said, Bring this young man to the chiliarch, for he has a certain thing to tell him.

mkjv@Acts:23:18 @ So he took him and brought [him] to the chiliarch and said, Paul the prisoner called me and asked me to bring this young man to you, who has something to say to you.

mkjv@Acts:23:19 @ And laying hold of his hand, and drawing aside privately, the chiliarch asked [him], What is [it] that you have to tell me?

mkjv@Acts:23:20 @ And he said, The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down to the sanhedrin tomorrow, as though they would inquire something more exactly about him.

mkjv@Acts:23:21 @ But do not yield to them, for there are more than forty men of them lying in wait for him, who have bound themselves with an oath that they will neither eat nor drink until they have killed him. And now they are ready, looking for a promise from you.

mkjv@Acts:23:22 @ So the chiliarch sent away the young man commanding, Tell no one that you have shown these things to me.

mkjv@Acts:23:23 @ And he called two centurions, saying, Make ready two hundred soldiers to go to Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen, at the third hour of the night.

mkjv@Acts:23:24 @ And provide animals, so that they may set Paul on them and bring [him] to Felix the governor.

mkjv@Acts:23:25 @ And he wrote a letter in this way:

mkjv@Acts:23:26 @ Claudius Lysias, to the most excellent governor Felix, greetings.

mkjv@Acts:23:27 @ This man was taken by the Jews and would have been killed by them. Then I came with an army and rescued him, having understood that he was a Roman.

mkjv@Acts:23:28 @ And being minded to know the charge for which they accused him, I brought him down to their sanhedrin;

mkjv@Acts:23:29 @ whom I found be accused of questions of their law, and having no charge worthy of death or of bonds.

mkjv@Acts:23:30 @ And it being revealed to me that a plot against the man was about to be [executed] by the Jews, I immediately sent him to you, commanding his accusers also to say before you what [they had] against him. Farewell.

mkjv@Acts:23:31 @ Then, indeed, taking up Paul, as it was commanded them, the soldiers brought [him] by night to Antipatris.

mkjv@Acts:23:32 @ And on the next day they left the horsemen to go with him and returned to the fortress.

mkjv@Acts:23:33 @ And when they had come to Caesarea and had delivered the letter to the governor, [they] presented Paul before him also.

mkjv@Acts:23:34 @ And when the governor had read [the letter], he asked what province he was from. And when he understood that [he was] from Cilicia,

mkjv@Acts:23:35 @ he said, I will hear you when your accusers have also come. And [he] commanded him to be kept in Herod's Praetorium.

mkjv@Acts:24:1 @ And after five days Ananias the high priest descended with the elders and [with] a certain orator, Tertullus, who made a statement to the governor against Paul.

mkjv@Acts:24:2 @ And being called, Tertullus began to accuse, saying,

mkjv@Acts:24:3 @ Since we enjoy great quietness by you, and very worthy deeds are done to this nation due to your forethought, in everything and everywhere, most noble Felix, we accept with all thankfulness.

mkjv@Acts:24:4 @ But that I not hinder you further, I beseech you to hear us briefly in your fairness.

mkjv@Acts:24:5 @ For we have found this man pestilent, and moving rebellion among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes,

mkjv@Acts:24:6 @ who also attempted to profane the temple, whom we took and would have judged according to our law.

mkjv@Acts:24:7 @ But the chiliarch Lysias came with much force, taking [him] away out of our hands,

mkjv@Acts:24:8 @ commanding his accusers to come to you. By examining him, you yourself may know about all these things of which we accuse him.

mkjv@Acts:24:9 @ And the Jews also assented, saying that these things were so.

mkjv@Acts:24:10 @ But the governor motioning to him to speak, Paul answered; Understanding you as being a judge of this nation many years, I cheerfully defend myself [as to] the things concerning myself.

mkjv@Acts:24:11 @ You can know that it is not more than twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem to worship.

mkjv@Acts:24:12 @ And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, nor making a gathering of a crowd; not even in the synagogues, nor throughout the city.

mkjv@Acts:24:13 @ Nor can they prove the things of which they now accuse me.

mkjv@Acts:24:14 @ But I confess this to you, that after the Way which they call heresy, so I worship the God of my fathers, believing all things that are written in the Law and in the Prophets.

mkjv@Acts:24:15 @ And I have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of [the] dead, both of the just and unjust.

mkjv@Acts:24:16 @ And in this I exercise myself, always to have a blameless conscience toward God and men.

mkjv@Acts:24:17 @ And after many years I came to bring alms and offerings to my nation.

mkjv@Acts:24:18 @ Among which certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, not with a crowd nor with tumult.

mkjv@Acts:24:19 @ These ought to be present before you and to accuse me, if they have anything against me.

mkjv@Acts:24:20 @ Or else let these themselves say if they have found anything unjust in me while I stood before the sanhedrin,

mkjv@Acts:24:21 @ unless it may be for this one voice that I cried out standing among them, that concerning a resurrection of [the] dead I am being judged by you today.

mkjv@Acts:24:22 @ And having heard these things, Felix put them off, knowing more accurately of the Way, saying, When Lysias the chiliarch has come down, I will examine the things concerning you.

mkjv@Acts:24:23 @ And he commanded a centurion to keep Paul and to let [him] have liberty, and not to forbid anyone of his own to minister or come to him.

mkjv@Acts:24:24 @ Then after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was a Jewess, he sent for Paul and heard him concerning the faith in Christ.

mkjv@Acts:24:25 @ And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and the Judgment to come, Felix trembled and answered, Go for this time, but taking time later, I will call for you.

mkjv@Acts:24:26 @ He also hoped that silver would be given him by Paul, that he might free him. Therefore [he] also frequently sent for him [and] talked with him.

mkjv@Acts:24:27 @ But after two years Felix welcomed a successor, Porcius Festus. And wishing to show a favor to the Jews, Felix left Paul bound.

mkjv@Acts:25:1 @ Then entering the province, after three days Festus went from Caesarea to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:25:2 @ And the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and they begged him

mkjv@Acts:25:3 @ asking a favor against him that he would send for him to Jerusalem, making a plot to kill him on way.

mkjv@Acts:25:4 @ Then indeed Festus answered that Paul should be kept at Caesarea; he himself would depart shortly.

mkjv@Acts:25:5 @ Then he said, those having power among you may go down with [me]. If there is a thing amiss in this man, let them accuse him.

mkjv@Acts:25:6 @ And staying among them more than ten days, going down to Caesarea, on the next day sitting on the judgment seat, he commanded Paul to be brought.

mkjv@Acts:25:7 @ And he having come, the Jews who came down from Jerusalem stood around and brought many charges against Paul, which they could not prove.

mkjv@Acts:25:8 @ Defending himself, [Paul] said, Neither against the Law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I offended in anything.

mkjv@Acts:25:9 @ But Festus, wanting to please the Jews, answered Paul and said, Will you go up to Jerusalem and be judged there before me about these things?

mkjv@Acts:25:10 @ But Paul said, I stand at Caesar's judgment seat, where I ought to be judged. I have done no wrong to the Jews, as you very well know.

mkjv@Acts:25:11 @ For if I am an offender or have committed anything worthy of death, I do not refuse to die. But if there is nothing of which these accuse me, no one can deliver me to them. I appeal to Caesar.

mkjv@Acts:25:12 @ Then conferring with the sanhedrin, Festus answered, You have appealed to Caesar? To Caesar you shall go.

mkjv@Acts:25:13 @ And after some days king Agrippa and Bernice came to Caesarea to greet Festus.

mkjv@Acts:25:14 @ And when they had been there many days, Festus declared Paul's cause to the king, saying, A certain man has been left in bonds by Felix,

mkjv@Acts:25:15 @ about whom, when I was in Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed [me], desiring judgment against him.

mkjv@Acts:25:16 @ To them I answered, It is not the custom of the Romans to deliver any man to destruction before he being accused may have the accusers face to face, and have had freedom to answer for himself concerning the accusation.

mkjv@Acts:25:17 @ Therefore, when they had come here, without any delay I sat on the judgment seat the next [day] and commanded the man to be brought,

mkjv@Acts:25:18 @ about whom, standing up, the accusers brought against him no charge of which I suspected,

mkjv@Acts:25:19 @ but they had certain questions about [their] own demon-worship, and about a certain Jesus dying, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.

mkjv@Acts:25:20 @ And because I was perplexed about this question, I asked whether he would go to Jerusalem and be judged there about these matters.

mkjv@Acts:25:21 @ But Paul having appealed to be reserved to the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be held until I might send him to Caesar.

mkjv@Acts:25:22 @ And Agrippa said to Festus, I also would like to hear the man myself. And he said, Tomorrow you shall hear him.

mkjv@Acts:25:23 @ And on the next day, when Agrippa and Bernice had come with great pomp and had entered into the auditorium with both the chiliarchs and principal men of the city, also Festus commanding, Paul was brought out.

mkjv@Acts:25:24 @ And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all those men present with us, you see this one about whom all the multitude of the Jews pleaded with me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying that he ought not to live any longer.

mkjv@Acts:25:25 @ But I had perceived nothing he had committed worthy of death, and that he himself has appealed to Augustus, I determined to send him,

mkjv@Acts:25:26 @ about whom I have no certain thing to write of him to [my] lord. Therefore I brought him before you, and especially before you, O king Agrippa, so that, after examination is made, I might have something to write.

mkjv@Acts:25:27 @ For it seems to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not to signify the charges against him.

mkjv@Acts:26:1 @ And Agrippa said to Paul, You are permitted to speak for yourself. Then stretching out his hand, Paul made a defense:

mkjv@Acts:26:2 @ Concerning all of which I am accused by Jews, king Agrippa, I think myself happy being about to make defense before you today,

mkjv@Acts:26:3 @ you being especially expert in all customs and questions among the Jews. Therefore I beseech you to hear me patiently.

mkjv@Acts:26:4 @ Truly, then, all the Jews know my manner of life from my youth, which was at first among my own nation at Jerusalem,

mkjv@Acts:26:5 @ who knew me from the first, if they would testify, that according to the strictest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

mkjv@Acts:26:6 @ And now I stand and am judged for [the] hope of the promise made to our fathers by God,

mkjv@Acts:26:7 @ to which [promise] our twelve tribes hope to attain, serving God fervently night and day. For the sake of this hope, king Agrippa, I am accused by the Jews.

mkjv@Acts:26:8 @ Why is it thought a thing incredible with you that God raises [the] dead?

mkjv@Acts:26:9 @ I truly thought within myself that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth,

mkjv@Acts:26:10 @ which I also did in Jerusalem. And I shut up many of the saints in prisons, having received authority from the chief priests. And they being put to death, I cast a vote.

mkjv@Acts:26:11 @ And I punished them often in every synagogue; I compelled [them] to blaspheme; and [being] exceedingly furious against them, I persecuted them even to the outside cities.

mkjv@Acts:26:12 @ In which pursuit also traveling to Damascus with authority and power of decision from the chief priests,

mkjv@Acts:26:13 @ at midday, along the highway, O king, I and those with me saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun; shining around me.

mkjv@Acts:26:14 @ And all of us falling to the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me and saying in the Hebrew dialect, Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me? [It is] hard for you to kick against the goads.

mkjv@Acts:26:15 @ And I said, Who are you, lord? And He said, I am Jesus whom you persecute.

mkjv@Acts:26:16 @ But rise and stand on your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of what you saw, and in what I shall appear to you;

mkjv@Acts:26:17 @ delivering you from the people and the nations, to whom I now send you

mkjv@Acts:26:18 @ in order to open their eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light, and from the authority of Satan to God, so that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.

mkjv@Acts:26:19 @ After this, king Agrippa, I did not disobey the heavenly vision.

mkjv@Acts:26:20 @ But to those first in Damascus, and Jerusalem, and to all the country of Judea, and to the nations, I made known [the command] to repent and to turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance

mkjv@Acts:26:21 @ Because of these things, having caught [me] in the temple, The Jews tried to kill [me].

mkjv@Acts:26:22 @ Then having obtained help from God, I stand until this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying no other things than those which the prophets and Moses said was going to happen;

mkjv@Acts:26:23 @ whether the Christ was] liable to suffer, whether first by a resurrection of the] dead He was going to proclaim light to the people and to the nations.

mkjv@Acts:26:24 @ And he defending himself [with] these things, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, you rave! Your many letters turn [you] to insanity.

mkjv@Acts:26:25 @ But he said, Not to insanity, most noble Festus, but I speak words of truth and sanity.

mkjv@Acts:26:26 @ For the king understands about these things, to whom I speak, even being bold of speech. For I am persuaded that not any of these things are hidden [from] him, nothing. For the doing of this was not in a corner.

mkjv@Acts:26:27 @ King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know that you believe.

mkjv@Acts:26:28 @ And Agrippa said to Paul, Do you persuade me to be a Christian in [but] a little?

mkjv@Acts:26:29 @ And Paul said, I would pray to God, both in a little and in much, that not only you, but also all hearing me today to become as I also am, except for these bonds.

mkjv@Acts:26:30 @ And he having spoken this, the king and the governor and Bernice and those who sat with them rose up.

mkjv@Acts:26:31 @ And withdrawing, they spoke with one another, saying, This man does nothing worthy of death or of bonds.

mkjv@Acts:26:32 @ And Agrippa said to Festus, This man might have been set at liberty if he had not appealed to Caesar.

mkjv@Acts:27:1 @ And when it was determined that we should sail to Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners to [one] named Julius, a centurion of Augustus' cohort.

mkjv@Acts:27:2 @ And boarding a ship of Adramyttium, which was about to sail alongside Asian places, we set sail, Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica, being with us.

mkjv@Acts:27:3 @ And on the next [day] we were landed at Sidon. And Julius treated Paul courteously and gave [him] liberty to go to his friends to receive care.

mkjv@Acts:27:4 @ And setting sail from there, we sailed close to Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.

mkjv@Acts:27:5 @ And sailing over the sea against Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra of Lycia.

mkjv@Acts:27:6 @ And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing to Italy, and he put us on it.

mkjv@Acts:27:7 @ And sailing slowly many days and with difficulty, coming abreast of Cnidus; the wind not allowing us; we sailed close to Crete, across from Salmone.

mkjv@Acts:27:8 @ And coasting along with difficulty, we came to a place named Fair Havens, near which was a city, Lasea.

mkjv@Acts:27:9 @ And much time having been used up, and the voyage already being dangerous, because the Fast was now already past, Paul warned [them],

mkjv@Acts:27:10 @ saying, Men, I perceive that this voyage is about to be with much harm and loss, and not only much cargo and of the ship, but also of our souls.

mkjv@Acts:27:11 @ But the centurion was rather persuaded by the helmsman and the shipmaster, than by the things spoken by Paul.

mkjv@Acts:27:12 @ And the port not being fit to winter in, the most of them advised to set sail from there, if by any means they might be able to get to Phoenix to winter; [which is] a port of Crete, looking toward [the] southwest and northwest.

mkjv@Acts:27:13 @ And a south wind blowing softly, thinking to have obtained [their] purpose, lifting [anchor], they sailed along close beside Crete.

mkjv@Acts:27:14 @ But not long after, a stormy wind called Euroclydon beat down [on] it.

mkjv@Acts:27:15 @ And the ship being seized, and not being able to beat against the wind, giving way we were borne along.

mkjv@Acts:27:16 @ And running under an islet being called Clauda, we hardly were able to become masters of the boat;

mkjv@Acts:27:17 @ which taking, they used helps, undergirding the ship. And fearing lest they should fall into the sandbanks of Syrtis, lowering the tackle, so they were borne along.

mkjv@Acts:27:18 @ And being exceedingly storm-tossed with a tempest, they made a casting on the next [day];

mkjv@Acts:27:19 @ And on the third [day] we threw out the ship's tackle with our hands.

mkjv@Acts:27:20 @ And neither sun nor stars appearing in many days, and no small tempest pressing hard, now all hope that we would be saved was taken away.

mkjv@Acts:27:21 @ But there being much fasting, then standing up in their midst, Paul said, O men, being obedient to me [you] ought not to have set sail from Crete, and to have come by this harm and loss.

mkjv@Acts:27:22 @ And now I exhort you to be of good cheer, for there will be no casting away of life among you, only of the ship.

mkjv@Acts:27:23 @ For tonight an angel of God stood beside me, whose I am and whom I serve,

mkjv@Acts:27:24 @ saying, Fear not, Paul! You must stand before Caesar. And behold! God has given you all those who sail with you.

mkjv@Acts:27:25 @ Therefore, men, be of good cheer, for I believe God, that it will be so, according to the way it was told me.

mkjv@Acts:27:26 @ But we must fall on a certain island.

mkjv@Acts:27:27 @ But when [the] fourteenth night came, we being carried about in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors thought that they drew near some country.

mkjv@Acts:27:28 @ And sounding they found it twenty fathoms; and moving a little further, and sounding again, they found [it] fifteen fathoms.

mkjv@Acts:27:29 @ And fearing that we would fall on rocks, and casting four anchors out of [the] stern, they wished day to come.

mkjv@Acts:27:30 @ But the sailors seeking to flee out of the ship, and lowering the boat into the sea, pretending to be about to cast out anchors from [the] prow,

mkjv@Acts:27:31 @ Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Unless these remain in the ship, you cannot be saved.

mkjv@Acts:27:32 @ Then the soldiers cut the ropes of the boat, and let her fall.

mkjv@Acts:27:33 @ And until day was about to come, Paul begged all to take food, saying, This [is] the fourteenth day that you continued waiting without food, having taken nothing.

mkjv@Acts:27:34 @ Therefore I beg you to take [some] food, for this is for your deliverance. For not a hair of your head shall perish.

mkjv@Acts:27:35 @ And saying these things, and taking bread, he gave thanks to God before all, and breaking, he began to eat.

mkjv@Acts:27:36 @ And all becoming cheered, they also took food.

mkjv@Acts:27:37 @ And we were, all the souls in the ship, two hundred and seventy-six.

mkjv@Acts:27:38 @ And being filled [with] food, they lightened the ship, throwing the wheat into the sea.

mkjv@Acts:27:39 @ And when day came, they did not recognize the land. But they discovered a certain bay with a beach, into which they were minded, if they were able, to drive the ship.

mkjv@Acts:27:40 @ And casting off the anchors, they left [them] in the sea; at the same time they loosened the rudder bands and hoisted up the foresail to the wind and held to the shore.

mkjv@Acts:27:41 @ And coming on a place between two seas, they drove the vessel. And indeed the prow sticking fast, [it] remained unmovable. But the stern was broken with the violence of the waves.

mkjv@Acts:27:42 @ And the mind of the soldiers was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out and escape.

mkjv@Acts:27:43 @ But the centurion, desiring to save Paul, kept them from [their] purpose and commanded those who could swim, to throw [themselves] overboard, to go out on the land.

mkjv@Acts:27:44 @ And the rest [went], some on boards and others on some of the things from the ship. And so it happened that all were saved on the land.

mkjv@Acts:28:1 @ And being saved, then they knew that the island was called Melita.

mkjv@Acts:28:2 @ And the foreigners showed us not the common kindness. For they kindled a fire and welcomed all of us, because of the rain coming on, and because of the cold.

mkjv@Acts:28:3 @ And Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laying [them] on the fire, a viper came out of the heat and fastened on his hand.

mkjv@Acts:28:4 @ And when the foreigners saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, being saved from the sea, Justice has not allowed to live.

mkjv@Acts:28:5 @ Then indeed he shook off the creature into the fire, suffering no harm.

mkjv@Acts:28:6 @ But they expected him to be about to become inflamed, or to fall down dead suddenly, But over much [time] expecting and seeing nothing amiss happening to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.

mkjv@Acts:28:7 @ In the [quarters] about that place were lands to the chief of the island, whose name was Publius. Welcoming us, [he] lodged us courteously three days.

mkjv@Acts:28:8 @ And it happened the father of Publius was lying down, suffering fevers and dysentery; to whom Paul entered in, and praying and laying on his hands, he healed him.

mkjv@Acts:28:9 @ Then this taking place, the rest who were having infirmities in the island also came, and were healed.

mkjv@Acts:28:10 @ [They] also honored us with many honors. And on [our] setting sail, they laid on the things of [our] needs.

mkjv@Acts:28:11 @ And after three months we sailed in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, an Alexandrian with an ensign, The Twin Brothers.

mkjv@Acts:28:12 @ And landing at Syracuse, we stayed three days.

mkjv@Acts:28:13 @ Going around from there we arrived at Rhegium. And after one day a south wind coming on, we came to Puteoli on the second,

mkjv@Acts:28:14 @ where finding brothers, we were asked to stay seven days. And so we went toward Rome.

mkjv@Acts:28:15 @ And the brothers from there hearing of us, [they] came to meet us as far as [the] market-place of Appius, and Three Taverns. Seeing them, thanking God, Paul took courage.

mkjv@Acts:28:16 @ And when we came into Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the camp commander. But Paul was allowed to dwell by himself, with a soldier guarding him.

mkjv@Acts:28:17 @ And after three days it happened that Paul called together those being chief of the Jews. And they coming together, he said to them, Men, brothers, I did nothing against the people or customs of our fathers. I was delivered a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans

mkjv@Acts:28:18 @ who, examining me, were of a mind to let [me] go because there was no cause of death in me.

mkjv@Acts:28:19 @ But the Jews speaking against [it], I was constrained to appeal to Caesar; not as having anything to accuse my nation.

mkjv@Acts:28:20 @ For this cause, then, I called for you, to see and to speak with [you]. For I have this chain around me for the hope of Israel.

mkjv@Acts:28:21 @ And they said to him, We neither received letters out of Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brothers who came declared or spoke anything evil of you.

mkjv@Acts:28:22 @ But we think [it] right to hear from you what you think. For truly as concerning this sect, it is known to us that it is spoken against everywhere.

mkjv@Acts:28:23 @ And they having appointed him a day, many came to him in [his] lodging; to whom he expounded, testifying the kingdom of God, and persuading them the things concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses and out of the prophets, from morning until evening.

mkjv@Acts:28:24 @ And some indeed believed the things that were said, others did not believe.

mkjv@Acts:28:25 @ And disagreeing with one another, they were let go, Paul saying one word: Well did the Holy Spirit speak through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,

mkjv@Acts:28:26 @ saying, Go to this people and say: Hearing you shall hear and shall not understand; and seeing you shall see and not perceive.

mkjv@Acts:28:27 @ For the heart of this people was fattened, and they have heard with their ears dully; and they closed their eyes; lest at any time they should see with [their] eyes, and hear with [their] ears, and understand with [their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

mkjv@Acts:28:28 @ Therefore be it known to you that the salvation of God is sent to the nations, and they will hear.

mkjv@Acts:28:29 @ And he having said these words, the Jews departed, having much discussion amongst themselves.

mkjv@Acts:28:30 @ And Paul remained two years in his own hired house. And he welcomed all who came in to him,

mkjv@Acts:28:31 @ proclaiming the kingdom of God, and teaching those things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ, with all freedom, [and] without hindrance.

mkjv@Romans:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, a called apostle, separated to the gospel of God

mkjv@Romans:1:2 @ (which He had promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures),

mkjv@Romans:1:3 @ about His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who was made of the seed of David according to the flesh,

mkjv@Romans:1:4 @ who was marked out the Son of God in power, according to [the] Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from [the] dead;

mkjv@Romans:1:5 @ by whom we have received grace and apostleship, to obedience to the faith among all nations, for His name;

mkjv@Romans:1:6 @ among whom you also are the called-out ones of Jesus Christ:

mkjv@Romans:1:7 @ to all those who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be] saints. Grace to you and peace from God our Father and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Romans:1:8 @ First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.

mkjv@Romans:1:9 @ For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of His Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you

mkjv@Romans:1:10 @ always in my prayers, making request if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come to you.

mkjv@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you, so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to you for the establishing of you.

mkjv@Romans:1:12 @ And this is to be comforted together with you by our mutual faith, both yours and mine.

mkjv@Romans:1:13 @ But I would not have you ignorant, brothers, that oftentimes I purposed to come to you, and was kept back until the present; that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other nations.

mkjv@Romans:1:14 @ I am debtor both to the Greeks and to the foreigners, both to the wise and to the unwise.

mkjv@Romans:1:15 @ So, as much as is in me [lies], I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are at Rome also.

mkjv@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is [the] power of God unto salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

mkjv@Romans:1:17 @ For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

mkjv@Romans:1:18 @ For the wrath of God is revealed from Heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness,

mkjv@Romans:1:19 @ because the thing which may be known of God is clearly revealed within them, for God revealed [it] to them.

mkjv@Romans:1:20 @ For the unseen things of Him from [the] creation of [the] world [are] clearly seen, being realized by the things that are made, [even] His eternal power and Godhead, for them to be without excuse.

mkjv@Romans:1:21 @ Because, knowing God, they did not glorify Him as God, neither were thankful. But [they] became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

mkjv@Romans:1:22 @ Professing to be wise, they became fools

mkjv@Romans:1:23 @ and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man, and birds, and four-footed animals, and creeping things.

mkjv@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of [their] hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves.

mkjv@Romans:1:25 @ For they changed the truth of God into a lie, and they worshiped and served the created thing more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

mkjv@Romans:1:26 @ For this cause, God gave them up to dishonorable affections. For even their women changed the natural use into that which is against nature.

mkjv@Romans:1:27 @ And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another; males with males working out shamefulness, and receiving in themselves the recompense which was fitting for their error.

mkjv@Romans:1:28 @ And even as they did not think fit to have God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do the things not right,

mkjv@Romans:1:29 @ being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; [being] full of envy, murder, quarrels, deceit, evil habits, [becoming] whisperers,

mkjv@Romans:1:30 @ backbiters, haters of God, insolent, proud, braggarts, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

mkjv@Romans:1:31 @ undiscerning, perfidious, without natural] affection, unforgiving, unmerciful;

mkjv@Romans:1:32 @ who, knowing the righteous order of God, that those practicing such things are worthy of death, not only do them, but have pleasure in those practicing [them].

mkjv@Romans:2:1 @ Therefore you are without excuse, O man, everyone who judges; for in that in which you judge another, you condemn yourself, for you who judge do the same things.

mkjv@Romans:2:2 @ But know that the judgment of God is according to truth on those who practice such things.

mkjv@Romans:2:3 @ And, O man, the [one] judging those who do such things, and practice them, do you think this, that you shall escape the judgment of God?

mkjv@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you despise the riches of His kindness, and the forbearance and long-suffering, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance?

mkjv@Romans:2:5 @ But according to your hardness and your impenitent heart, do you treasure up wrath for yourself in a day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,

mkjv@Romans:2:6 @ who will render to each according to his works;

mkjv@Romans:2:7 @ indeed to those who with patience [in] good work [are] seeking for glory, and honor, and incorruptibility, everlasting life.

mkjv@Romans:2:8 @ But to those who indeed disobeying the truth out] of self-seeking, and obeying unrighteousness, will be] anger and wrath,

mkjv@Romans:2:9 @ tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man who has worked out evil; of the Jew first, and also of the Greek.

mkjv@Romans:2:10 @ But He [will give] glory, honor and peace to every man who works good, to [the] Jew first and also to [the] Greek.

mkjv@Romans:2:11 @ For there is no respect of faces with God.

mkjv@Romans:2:12 @ For as many as sinned without Law will also perish without Law. And as many as have sinned within Law shall be judged through Law.

mkjv@Romans:2:13 @ For it is not the hearers of the Law who [are] just before God, but the doers of the Law will be justified.

mkjv@Romans:2:14 @ For when the nations, who do not have the Law, do by nature the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law unto themselves;

mkjv@Romans:2:15 @ who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and the thoughts between one another accusing or even excusing one another,

mkjv@Romans:2:16 @ in a day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

mkjv@Romans:2:17 @ Behold, you are called a Jew, and rest in the Law, and boast in God;

mkjv@Romans:2:18 @ and know [His] will and approve the things excelling, being instructed out of the Law;

mkjv@Romans:2:19 @ and persuading yourselves to be a guide of the blind, a light to those in darkness;

mkjv@Romans:2:20 @ an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, who have the form of knowledge and of the truth in the Law.

mkjv@Romans:2:21 @ Therefore the [one] teaching another, do you not teach yourself? The [one] preaching not to steal, do you steal?

mkjv@Romans:2:22 @ The [one] saying not to commit adultery, do you commit adultery? The [one] detesting idols, do you rob temples?

mkjv@Romans:2:23 @ [You] who boast in Law, do you dishonor God through breaking the Law?

mkjv@Romans:2:24 @ For the name of God is blasphemed among the nations because of you, as it is written.

mkjv@Romans:2:25 @ For circumcision truly profits if you keep [the] Law, but if you are a transgressor of the Law, circumcision becomes uncircumcision.

mkjv@Romans:2:26 @ If then the uncircumcision keeps the ordinances of the Law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

mkjv@Romans:2:27 @ And the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfills the Law, shall it not judge you, who through letter and circumcision [become] transgressors of the Law?

mkjv@Romans:2:28 @ For he is not a Jew who [is one] outwardly, nor [is] circumcision that outwardly in flesh;

mkjv@Romans:2:29 @ but he [is] a Jew who [is one] inwardly, and circumcision [is] of the heart; in spirit and not in letter; whose praise [is] not from men, but from God.

mkjv@Romans:3:1 @ Then what [is] the superiority of the Jew? Or what [is] the profit of circumcision?

mkjv@Romans:3:2 @ Much, by every way! Chiefly, indeed, because they were entrusted with the oracles of God.

mkjv@Romans:3:3 @ For what? If some did not believe, will not their unbelief nullify the faith of God?

mkjv@Romans:3:4 @ Let it not be! But let God be true, and every man a liar; as it is written, That You might be justified in Your sayings, and will overcome when You are judged.

mkjv@Romans:3:5 @ But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what shall we say? [Is] God unrighteous who lays on wrath? (I speak as a man.)

mkjv@Romans:3:6 @ Let it not be! For then how shall God judge the world?

mkjv@Romans:3:7 @ For if in my lie the truth has more abounded to His glory why am I still judged as a sinner?

mkjv@Romans:3:8 @ And not [rather], (as we are wrongly accused, and as some affirm that we say), Let us do bad things that good may come? [Their] condemnation is just.

mkjv@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Do we excel? No, in no way; for we have before charged both Jews and Greeks all [with] being under sin,

mkjv@Romans:3:10 @ as it is written: There is none righteous, no not one;

mkjv@Romans:3:11 @ there is none that understands, there is none that seeks after God.

mkjv@Romans:3:12 @ They are all gone out of the way, [they] have together become unprofitable, there is none that does good, no, not one.

mkjv@Romans:3:13 @ Their throat [is] an open grave, with their tongues they have used deceit, [the] poison of asps [is] under their lips;

mkjv@Romans:3:14 @ whose mouth [is] full of cursing and bitterness;

mkjv@Romans:3:15 @ their feet [are] swift to shed blood;

mkjv@Romans:3:16 @ destruction and misery [are] in their way,

mkjv@Romans:3:17 @ and the way of peace they did not know.

mkjv@Romans:3:18 @ There is no fear of God before their eyes.

mkjv@Romans:3:19 @ But we know that whatever things the Law says, it says to those who are under the Law; so that every mouth may be stopped and all the world may be under judgment before God,

mkjv@Romans:3:20 @ because by the works of the Law none of all flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law [is] the knowledge of sin.

mkjv@Romans:3:21 @ But now a righteousness of God has been revealed apart from Law, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets;

mkjv@Romans:3:22 @ even the righteousness of God through the faith of Jesus Christ, toward all and upon all those who believe. For there is no difference,

mkjv@Romans:3:23 @ for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God,

mkjv@Romans:3:24 @ being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus;

mkjv@Romans:3:25 @ whom God has set forth [to be] a propitiation through faith in His blood, to declare His righteousness through the passing by of the sins that had taken place before, in the forbearance of God;

mkjv@Romans:3:26 @ for the display of His righteousness at this time, for Him to be just and, forgiving the [one] being of the faith of Jesus.

mkjv@Romans:3:27 @ Then where [is] the boasting? It is excluded. Through what law? Of works? No, but through the law of faith.

mkjv@Romans:3:28 @ Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the works of the law.

mkjv@Romans:3:29 @ Or [is He] the God of the Jews only, and not also of the nations? Yes, of the nations also,

mkjv@Romans:3:30 @ since [it is] one God who will justify circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.

mkjv@Romans:3:31 @ Do we then make the Law void through faith? Let it not be! But we establish the Law.

mkjv@Romans:4:1 @ What then shall we say that our father Abraham has found, according to flesh?

mkjv@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham was justified by works, he has a boast; but not before God.

mkjv@Romans:4:3 @ For what does the Scripture say? Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:4:4 @ But to him working, the reward is not reckoned according to grace, but according to debt.

mkjv@Romans:4:5 @ But to him not working, but believing on Him justifying the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:4:6 @ Even as David also says of the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness without works,

mkjv@Romans:4:7 @ [saying], Blessed are those whose lawlessnesses are forgiven, and whose sins are covered;

mkjv@Romans:4:8 @ blessed [is] the man to whom [the] Lord will in no way impute sin.

mkjv@Romans:4:9 @ [Is] this blessedness then on the circumcision only, or on the uncircumcision also? For we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:4:10 @ How then was it reckoned? Being in circumcision or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.

mkjv@Romans:4:11 @ And he received a sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith [while still] uncircumcised; so that he might be [the] father of all those believing through uncircumcision, for righteousness to be imputed to them also;

mkjv@Romans:4:12 @ and a father of circumcision to those not of the circumcision only, but also to those walking by the steps of the faith of our father Abraham during uncircumcision.

mkjv@Romans:4:13 @ For the promise that he should be the heir of the world [was] not to Abraham or to his seed through the Law, but through the righteousness of faith.

mkjv@Romans:4:14 @ For if they of the Law [are] heirs, faith is made void and the promise is made of no effect;

mkjv@Romans:4:15 @ because the Law works out wrath, for where no law is, [there is] no transgression.

mkjv@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore [it is] of faith so that [it might be] according to grace; for the promise to be made sure to all the seed, not only to that which is of the Law, but to that also which is of the] faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all

mkjv@Romans:4:17 @ (as it has been written, I have made you a father of many nations) --before God, whom he believed, who makes the dead live, and calls the things [which] do not exist as [though they] do exist.

mkjv@Romans:4:18 @ [For he] who beyond hope believed on hope for him to become the father of many nations (according to that which was spoken, So your seed shall be).

mkjv@Romans:4:19 @ And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body already dead (being about a hundred years old) or the deadening of Sarah's womb.

mkjv@Romans:4:20 @ He did not stagger at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strong in faith, giving glory to God,

mkjv@Romans:4:21 @ and being fully persuaded that what God had promised, He was also able to perform.

mkjv@Romans:4:22 @ And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:4:23 @ Now it was not written for him alone that it was imputed to him,

mkjv@Romans:4:24 @ but for us also to whom it is to be imputed, to the ones believing on Him who has raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;

mkjv@Romans:4:25 @ who was delivered because of our offenses and was raised for our justification.

mkjv@Romans:5:1 @ Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Romans:5:2 @ Through Him we also have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice on the hope of the glory of God.

mkjv@Romans:5:3 @ And not only [this], but we glory in afflictions also, knowing that afflictions work out patience,

mkjv@Romans:5:4 @ and patience [works out] experience, and experience [works out] hope.

mkjv@Romans:5:5 @ And hope does not make [us] ashamed, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through [the] Holy Spirit given to us.

mkjv@Romans:5:6 @ For we yet being without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

mkjv@Romans:5:7 @ For one will with difficulty die for a righteous one, yet perhaps one would even dare to die for a good one.

mkjv@Romans:5:8 @ But God commends His love toward us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.

mkjv@Romans:5:9 @ Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.

mkjv@Romans:5:10 @ For if [when] we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.

mkjv@Romans:5:11 @ And not only [so], but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the reconciliation.

mkjv@Romans:5:12 @ Therefore, even as through one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin, and so death passed on all men inasmuch as all sinned:

mkjv@Romans:5:13 @ for until the Law sin was in [the] world, but sin is not imputed [when] there is no law.

mkjv@Romans:5:14 @ But death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned in the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is the type of Him who was to come;

mkjv@Romans:5:15 @ but the free gift [shall] not [be] also like the offense. For if by the offense of the one many died, much more the grace of God, and the gift in grace; which [is] of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.

mkjv@Romans:5:16 @ And the free gift [shall] not [be] as by one having sinned; (for indeed the judgment [was] of one to condemnation, but the free gift [is] of many offenses to justification.

mkjv@Romans:5:17 @ For if by one man's offense death reigned by one, much more they who receive abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by One, Jesus Christ.)

mkjv@Romans:5:18 @ Therefore as by one offense [sentence came] on all men to condemnation, even so by the righteousness of One the free gift [came] to all men to justification of life.

mkjv@Romans:5:19 @ For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of One shall many be made righteous.

mkjv@Romans:5:20 @ But the Law entered so that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound,

mkjv@Romans:5:21 @ so that as sin has reigned to death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

mkjv@Romans:6:1 @ What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin so that grace may abound?

mkjv@Romans:6:2 @ Let it not be! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?

mkjv@Romans:6:3 @ Do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death?

mkjv@Romans:6:4 @ Therefore we were buried with Him by baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised up from [the] dead by the glory of the Father; even so we also should walk in newness of life.

mkjv@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have been joined together in the likeness of His death, we shall also be [in the likeness] of His resurrection;

mkjv@Romans:6:6 @ knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [Him] in order that the body of sin might be destroyed, that from now on we should not serve sin.

mkjv@Romans:6:7 @ For he who died has been justified from sin.

mkjv@Romans:6:8 @ But if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him,

mkjv@Romans:6:9 @ knowing that when Christ was raised from [the] dead, He dies no more; death no longer has dominion over Him.

mkjv@Romans:6:10 @ For in that He died, He died to sin once; but in that He lives, He lives to God.

mkjv@Romans:6:11 @ Likewise count yourselves also to be truly dead to sin, but alive to God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

mkjv@Romans:6:12 @ Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.

mkjv@Romans:6:13 @ Do not yield your members [as] instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but yield yourselves to God, as [one] alive from [the] dead, and your members [as] instruments of righteousness to God.

mkjv@Romans:6:14 @ For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under Law, but under grace.

mkjv@Romans:6:15 @ What then? Shall we sin because we are not under Law, but under grace? Let it not be!

mkjv@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that to whom you yield yourselves [as] slaves for obedience, you are slaves to him whom you obey; whether it is of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:6:17 @ But thanks [be] to our God that you were the slaves of sin, but you have obeyed from [the] heart that form of doctrine to which you were delivered.

mkjv@Romans:6:18 @ Then being made free from sin, you became the slaves of righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:6:19 @ I speak in the manner of men because of the weakness of your flesh; for as you have yielded your members [as] slaves to uncleanness, and to lawless act unto lawless act, even so now yield your members as slaves to righteousness unto holiness.

mkjv@Romans:6:20 @ For when you were the slaves of sin, you were free from righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:6:21 @ What fruit did you have then [in those things] of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things [is] death.

mkjv@Romans:6:22 @ But now, being made free from sin, and having become slaves to God, you have your fruit to holiness, and the end everlasting life.

mkjv@Romans:6:23 @ For the wages of sin [is] death, but the gift of God [is] eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

mkjv@Romans:7:1 @ Or are you ignorant, brothers; for I speak to those who know the Law; that the law has dominion over a man as long as he lives?

mkjv@Romans:7:2 @ For the married woman was bound by law to the living husband. But if the husband is dead, she is set free from the law of [her] husband.

mkjv@Romans:7:3 @ So then [if], while [her] husband lives, she is married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress. But if the husband dies, she is free from the law, [so that] she is no adulteress by becoming another man's wife.

mkjv@Romans:7:4 @ So, my brothers, you also have become dead to the law by the body of Christ so that you should be married to Another, [even] to Him raised from [the] dead, that we should bring forth fruit to God.

mkjv@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh, the passions of sin worked in our members through the law to bring forth fruit to death.

mkjv@Romans:7:6 @ But now we having been set free from the Law, having died [to that] in which we were held, so that we serve in newness of spirit and not [in] oldness of the letter.

mkjv@Romans:7:7 @ What shall we say then? [Is] the law sin? Let it not be said! But I did not know sin except through the law. For also I did not know lust except the law said, You shall not lust.

mkjv@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, worked in me all kinds of lust. For apart from law sin [was] dead.

mkjv@Romans:7:9 @ For I was alive without the law once. But when the commandment came, sin revived and I died.

mkjv@Romans:7:10 @ And the commandment, which [was] to life, was found [to be] death to me.

mkjv@Romans:7:11 @ For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed [me].

mkjv@Romans:7:12 @ So indeed the Law [is] holy, and the commandment is holy and just and good.

mkjv@Romans:7:13 @ Then has that [which is] good become death to me? Let it not be! But sin, that it might appear [to be] sin, working death in me by [that which is] good; in order that sin might become exceedingly sinful by the commandment.

mkjv@Romans:7:14 @ For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin.

mkjv@Romans:7:15 @ For that which I do, I know not. For what I desire, that I do not do; but what I hate, that I do.

mkjv@Romans:7:16 @ If then I do that which I do not desire, I consent to the law that [it is] good.

mkjv@Romans:7:17 @ But now it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwells in me.

mkjv@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) dwells no good thing. For to will is present with me, but [how] to perform [that which is] good I do not find.

mkjv@Romans:7:19 @ For I do not do the good that I desire; but the evil which I do not will, that I do.

mkjv@Romans:7:20 @ But if I do what I do not desire, [it is] no more I working it out, but sin dwelling in me.

mkjv@Romans:7:21 @ I find then a law: when I will to do the right, evil is present with me.

mkjv@Romans:7:22 @ For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man;

mkjv@Romans:7:23 @ but I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin being in my members.

mkjv@Romans:7:24 @ O wretched man [that] I [am]! Who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

mkjv@Romans:7:25 @ I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.

mkjv@Romans:8:1 @ [There is] therefore now no condemnation to those [who are] in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

mkjv@Romans:8:2 @ But the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

mkjv@Romans:8:3 @ For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh;

mkjv@Romans:8:4 @ so that the righteousness of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

mkjv@Romans:8:5 @ For they who are according to the flesh mind the things of flesh, but they who are according to the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

mkjv@Romans:8:6 @ For to be carnally minded [is] death, but to be spiritually minded [is] life and peace

mkjv@Romans:8:7 @ because the carnal mind [is] enmity against God, for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can [it be].

mkjv@Romans:8:8 @ So then they who are in the flesh cannot please God.

mkjv@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh, but in [the] Spirit, if [the] Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone has not [the] Spirit of Christ, he is none of His.

mkjv@Romans:8:10 @ And if Christ [is] in you, indeed the body [is] dead because of sin, but the Spirit [is] life because of righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:8:11 @ But if the Spirit of the [One] who raised up Jesus from [the] dead dwells in you, the [One] who raised up Christ from [the] dead shall also make your mortal bodies alive by His Spirit who dwells in you.

mkjv@Romans:8:12 @ Therefore, brothers, we are not debtors to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

mkjv@Romans:8:13 @ For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die. But if you through [the] Spirit mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live.

mkjv@Romans:8:14 @ For as many as are led by [the] Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

mkjv@Romans:8:15 @ For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption by which we cry, Abba, Father!

mkjv@Romans:8:16 @ The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are the children of God.

mkjv@Romans:8:17 @ And if we are children, then we are heirs; heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ; so that if we suffer with [Him], we may also be glorified together.

mkjv@Romans:8:18 @ For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the coming glory to be revealed in us.

mkjv@Romans:8:19 @ For the earnest expectation of the creation waits for the manifestation of the sons of God.

mkjv@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was not willingly subjected to vanity, but because of Him who subjected [it] on hope

mkjv@Romans:8:21 @ that the creation itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

mkjv@Romans:8:22 @ And we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now.

mkjv@Romans:8:23 @ And not only [so], but ourselves also, who have the firstfruit of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, awaiting adoption, the redemption of our body.

mkjv@Romans:8:24 @ For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen is not hope; for what anyone sees, why does he also hope [for it]?

mkjv@Romans:8:25 @ But if we hope for that which we do not see, [then] we wait for it with patience.

mkjv@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmities. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

mkjv@Romans:8:27 @ And He searching the hearts knows what [is] the mind of the Spirit, because He makes intercession for the saints according to [the will of] God.

mkjv@Romans:8:28 @ And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to [His] purpose.

mkjv@Romans:8:29 @ For whom He foreknew, He also predestinated [to be] conformed to the image of His Son, for Him to be [the] First-born among many brothers.

mkjv@Romans:8:30 @ But whom He predestinated, these He also called; and whom He called, those He also justified. And whom He justified, these He also glorified.

mkjv@Romans:8:31 @ What then shall we say to these things? If God [is] for us, who [can be] against us?

mkjv@Romans:8:32 @ Truly [He] who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

mkjv@Romans:8:33 @ Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? [It is] God who justifies.

mkjv@Romans:8:34 @ Who [is] he condemning? [It is] Christ who has died, but rather also [who is] raised, who is also at [the] right [hand] of God, who also intercedes for us.

mkjv@Romans:8:35 @ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [Shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

mkjv@Romans:8:36 @ As it is written, For Your sake we are killed all the day long. We are counted as sheep of slaughter.

mkjv@Romans:8:37 @ But in all these things we more than conquer through Him who loved us.

mkjv@Romans:8:38 @ For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

mkjv@Romans:8:39 @ nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

mkjv@Romans:9:1 @ I tell [the] truth in Christ, I do not lie, my conscience also bearing me witness in [the] Holy Spirit,

mkjv@Romans:9:2 @ that I have great heaviness and continual pain in my heart.

mkjv@Romans:9:3 @ For I myself was wishing to be accursed from Christ for my brothers, my kinsmen according to the flesh,

mkjv@Romans:9:4 @ who are Israelites; to whom [belong] the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the Law, and the service [of God], and the promises;

mkjv@Romans:9:5 @ whose [are] the fathers, and of whom [is] the Christ according to flesh, He being God over all, blessed forever. Amen.

mkjv@Romans:9:6 @ Not however that the word of God has failed, for not all those of Israel [are] Israel;

mkjv@Romans:9:7 @ nor because they are the seed of Abraham [are they] all children. But, In Isaac shall your Seed be called.

mkjv@Romans:9:8 @ That is, not the children of the flesh [are] children of God; but the children of the promise [are] counted for a seed.

mkjv@Romans:9:9 @ For this [is] the word of promise: At this time I will come and Sarah shall have a son.

mkjv@Romans:9:10 @ And not only [this], but when Rebekah also had conceived by one, by our father Isaac

mkjv@Romans:9:11 @ (for [the children] had not yet been born, neither had done any good or evil; but that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who called,)

mkjv@Romans:9:12 @ it was said to her, The elder shall serve the younger.

mkjv@Romans:9:13 @ As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

mkjv@Romans:9:14 @ What shall we say then? [Is there] not unrighteousness with God? Let it not be!

mkjv@Romans:9:15 @ For He said to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

mkjv@Romans:9:16 @ So then [it is] not of the [one] willing, nor of the [one] running, but of God, the [One] showing mercy.

mkjv@Romans:9:17 @ For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose I have raised you up, that I might show My power in you, and that My name might be declared throughout all the earth.

mkjv@Romans:9:18 @ Therefore He has mercy on whom He will [have mercy], and whom He will, He hardens.

mkjv@Romans:9:19 @ You will then say to me, Why does He yet find fault? For who has resisted His will?

mkjv@Romans:9:20 @ No, but, O man, who are you who replies against God? Shall the thing formed say to Him who formed [it], Why have you made me this way?

mkjv@Romans:9:21 @ Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel to honor and another to dishonor?

mkjv@Romans:9:22 @ [What] if God, willing to show His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much long-suffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction;

mkjv@Romans:9:23 @ and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy which He had before prepared to glory;

mkjv@Romans:9:24 @ whom He also called, not only us, of Jews, but also of the nations?

mkjv@Romans:9:25 @ As He also says in Hosea, I will call those not My people, My people; and those not beloved, Beloved.

mkjv@Romans:9:26 @ And it shall be, in the place where it was said to them. You [are] not My people; there they shall be called sons of the living God.

mkjv@Romans:9:27 @ Isaiah also cries concerning Israel, Though the number of the sons of Israel is as the sands of the sea, a remnant shall be saved.

mkjv@Romans:9:28 @ For [He is] bringing [the] matter to an end, and cutting short in righteousness, because [the] Lord will make a short work on the earth.

mkjv@Romans:9:29 @ And as Isaiah said before, Unless the Lord of hosts had left us a seed, we would have been as Sodom, and would have been like Gomorrah.

mkjv@Romans:9:30 @ What shall we say then? That the nations, who did not follow after righteousness have taken on righteousness, but a righteousness of faith.

mkjv@Romans:9:31 @ But Israel, who followed after a law of righteousness did not arrive at a law of righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because [it was] not of faith, but as it were by the works of the Law. For they stumbled at that Stumbling-stone;

mkjv@Romans:9:33 @ as it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a Stumbling-stone and a Rock-of-offense, and everyone believing on Him shall not be put to shame.

mkjv@Romans:10:1 @ Brothers, truly my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is for [it] to be saved.

mkjv@Romans:10:2 @ For I bear record to them that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

mkjv@Romans:10:3 @ For they, being ignorant of God's righteousness and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of God.

mkjv@Romans:10:4 @ For Christ [is] the end of the law for righteousness for everyone who believes.

mkjv@Romans:10:5 @ For Moses writes [of] the righteousness [which] is of the Law, The man who does those things shall live by them.

mkjv@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness of faith says this: Do not say in your heart, Who shall ascend into Heaven? that is, to bring Christ down;

mkjv@Romans:10:7 @ or Who shall descend into the deep?; that is, to bring up Christ again from [the] dead.

mkjv@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? The word is near you, [even] in your mouth and in your heart; that is, the word of faith which we proclaim;

mkjv@Romans:10:9 @ Because if you confess the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from [the] dead, you shall be saved.

mkjv@Romans:10:10 @ For with [the] heart [one] believes unto righteousness, and with [the] mouth [one] confesses unto salvation.

mkjv@Romans:10:11 @ For the Scripture says, Everyone believing on Him shall not be put to shame.

mkjv@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no difference both of Jew and of Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call on Him.

mkjv@Romans:10:13 @ For everyone, whoever shall call on the name of [the] Lord will be saved.

mkjv@Romans:10:14 @ How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without preaching?

mkjv@Romans:10:15 @ And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, How beautiful [are] the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace and bring glad tidings of good things!

mkjv@Romans:10:16 @ But [they have] not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has believed our report?

mkjv@Romans:10:17 @ Then faith [is] of hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.

mkjv@Romans:10:18 @ But I say, Have they not heard? Yes indeed, their voice went out into all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.

mkjv@Romans:10:19 @ But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses says, I will provoke you to jealousy by [those who are] no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.

mkjv@Romans:10:20 @ But Isaiah [is] very bold and says, I was found by those who did not seek Me, I became known to those who did not ask after Me.

mkjv@Romans:10:21 @ But to Israel He says, All day long I have stretched forth My hands to a disobeying and gainsaying people.

mkjv@Romans:11:1 @ I say then, Did not God put away His people? Let it not be [said]! For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of [the] tribe of Benjamin.

mkjv@Romans:11:2 @ God did not thrust out His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture said in Elijah, how he pleaded with God against Israel, saying,

mkjv@Romans:11:3 @ Lord, they killed Your prophets and dug down Your altars, and I am left alone, and they seek my life.

mkjv@Romans:11:4 @ But what does the Divine answer say to him? I have reserved to Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal.

mkjv@Romans:11:5 @ Even so then, also in this present time a remnant according to the election of grace has come into being.

mkjv@Romans:11:6 @ But if by grace, then [it is] no more of works; otherwise grace is no more grace. But if [it is] of works, then it is no more of grace; otherwise work is no more work.

mkjv@Romans:11:7 @ What then? Israel has not obtained that which it seeks, but the election obtained [it], and the rest were hardened

mkjv@Romans:11:8 @ even as it is written, God gave to them a spirit of slumber, eyes not seeing, and ears not hearing until this day.

mkjv@Romans:11:9 @ And David said, Let their table become for a snare and a trap and a stumbling block and a recompense to them.

mkjv@Romans:11:10 @ Let their eyes be darkened so that they may not see, and their back always bowing.

mkjv@Romans:11:11 @ I say then, Did they not stumble that they fall? Let it not be! But by their slipping away came salvation to the nations, to provoke them to jealousy.

mkjv@Romans:11:12 @ But if their slipping away [is] the riches of [the] world, and their default is [the] riches of [the] nations, how much more their fullness?

mkjv@Romans:11:13 @ For I speak to you, the nations; since I am the apostle of the nations, I glorify my ministry;

mkjv@Romans:11:14 @ if by any means I may provoke [those who are] my flesh to jealousy, and might save some of them.

mkjv@Romans:11:15 @ For if their casting away [is the] reconciling of [the] world, what [is] the reception except life from [the] dead?

mkjv@Romans:11:16 @ For if the firstfruit [is] holy, the lump [is] also [holy]; and if the root [is] holy, also the branches.

mkjv@Romans:11:17 @ And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and became a sharer of the root and the fatness of the olive tree with them,

mkjv@Romans:11:18 @ do not boast against the branches. But if you boast, [it is] not you [that] bears the root, but the root bears you.

mkjv@Romans:11:19 @ You will say then, The branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.

mkjv@Romans:11:20 @ Well, because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not [be] high-minded, but fear.

mkjv@Romans:11:21 @ For if God did not spare the natural branches, [fear] lest He also may not spare you either!

mkjv@Romans:11:22 @ Behold then [the] kindness, and [the] severity of God; on those having fallen, severity; but on you, kindness, if you continue in the kindness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.

mkjv@Romans:11:23 @ And those also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in. For God is able to graft them in again.

mkjv@Romans:11:24 @ For if you were cut out of the natural wild olive [tree], and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive [tree]; how much more these [being] according to nature will be grafted into [their] own olive-tree?

mkjv@Romans:11:25 @ For I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, lest you should be wise within yourselves; that blindness in part has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the nations has comes in.

mkjv@Romans:11:26 @ And so all Israel shall be saved; as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.

mkjv@Romans:11:27 @ For this [is] My covenant with them, when I have taken away their sins.

mkjv@Romans:11:28 @ Indeed as regards the gospel, [they are] enemies for your sakes. But as regards the election, [they are] beloved for the fathers' sakes.

mkjv@Romans:11:29 @ For the free gifts and calling of God [are] without repentance.

mkjv@Romans:11:30 @ For as you also then disbelieved God, but now have been shown mercy through their disbelief,

mkjv@Romans:11:31 @ even so these also have not believed now, so that through your mercy they may also obtain mercy.

mkjv@Romans:11:32 @ For God has shut up all in unbelief, so that He might show mercy to all.

mkjv@Romans:11:33 @ O [the] depth of [the] riches both of [the] wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable [are] His judgments, and His ways past finding out!

mkjv@Romans:11:34 @ For who has known the mind of [the] Lord, or who became His counselor?

mkjv@Romans:11:35 @ Or who first gave to Him, and it will be repaid to him?

mkjv@Romans:11:36 @ For of Him and through Him and to Him [are] all things; to Him be glory forever! Amen.

mkjv@Romans:12:1 @ I beseech you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, pleasing to God, [which is] your reasonable service.

mkjv@Romans:12:2 @ And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, in order to prove by you what [is] that good and pleasing and perfect will of God.

mkjv@Romans:12:3 @ For I say, through the grace given to me, to every one who is among you, not to think [of himself] more highly than he ought to think. But set your mind to be right-minded, even as God has dealt to every man the measure of faith.

mkjv@Romans:12:4 @ For even as we have many members in one body, and all members do not have the same function,

mkjv@Romans:12:5 @ so we the many are one body in Christ, and each one members of one another.

mkjv@Romans:12:6 @ Then having gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, if prophecy, according to the proportion of faith;

mkjv@Romans:12:7 @ or ministry, in the ministry; or [he who] teaches, in the teaching;

mkjv@Romans:12:8 @ or he who exhorts, in the encouragement; or he who shares, in simplicity; or he who takes the lead, in diligence; or he who shows mercy, in cheerfulness.

mkjv@Romans:12:9 @ [Let] love [be] without hypocrisy, shrinking from evil, cleaving to good;

mkjv@Romans:12:10 @ in brotherly love to one another, loving fervently, having led one another in honor.

mkjv@Romans:12:11 @ As to diligence, not slothful, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord;

mkjv@Romans:12:12 @ rejoicing in hope, patient in affliction, steadfastly continuing in prayer,

mkjv@Romans:12:13 @ distributing to the needs of the saints, pursuing hospitality.

mkjv@Romans:12:14 @ Bless those who persecute you; bless, and do not curse.

mkjv@Romans:12:15 @ Rejoice with rejoicing ones, and weep with weeping ones;

mkjv@Romans:12:16 @ minding the same thing toward one another, not minding high things, but yielding to the lowly. Do not be wise within yourselves.

mkjv@Romans:12:17 @ Repay no one evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

mkjv@Romans:12:18 @ If [it is] possible, as far as [is] in you, being in peace with all men.

mkjv@Romans:12:19 @ not avenging yourselves, beloved, but giving place to wrath; for it is written, Vengeance [is] Mine, I will repay, says [the] Lord.

mkjv@Romans:12:20 @ Therefore if your enemy hungers, feed him. If he thirsts, give him drink. For [in so] doing you shall heap coals of fire on his head.

mkjv@Romans:12:21 @ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

mkjv@Romans:13:1 @ Let every soul be subject to the higher authorities. For there is no authority but of God; the authorities that exist are ordained by God.

mkjv@Romans:13:2 @ So that the one resisting the authority resists the ordinance of God; and the ones who resist will receive judgment to themselves.

mkjv@Romans:13:3 @ For the rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the bad. And do you desire to be not afraid of the authority? Do the good, and you shall have praise from it.

mkjv@Romans:13:4 @ For it is a servant of God to you for good. For if you practice evil, be afraid, for it does not bear the sword in vain; for it is a servant of God, a revenger for wrath on him who does evil.

mkjv@Romans:13:5 @ Therefore [you] must be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience' sake.

mkjv@Romans:13:6 @ For because of this you also pay taxes. For they are God's servants, always giving attention to this very thing.

mkjv@Romans:13:7 @ Therefore give to all [their] dues; to the [one due] tax, the tax; tribute to whom tribute [is due], fear to whom fear [is due], and honor to whom honor [is due].

mkjv@Romans:13:8 @ Owe no one anything, except to love one another; for he who loves another has fulfilled the law.

mkjv@Romans:13:9 @ For: Do not commit adultery; do not murder; do not steal; do not bear false witness; do not lust; and if [there is] any other commandment, it is summed up in this word, You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

mkjv@Romans:13:10 @ Love works no ill to its neighbor, therefore love [is] the fulfilling of the law.

mkjv@Romans:13:11 @ This also, knowing the time, that [it is] already time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation [is] nearer than when we believed.

mkjv@Romans:13:12 @ The night [is] far spent, the day is at hand; therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.

mkjv@Romans:13:13 @ Let us walk becomingly, as in [the] day; not in carousings and drinking; not in co-habitation and lustful acts; not in strife and envy.

mkjv@Romans:13:14 @ But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not take thought beforehand for the lusts of the flesh.

mkjv@Romans:14:1 @ And receive him who is weak in the faith, [but] not to judgments of [your] thoughts.

mkjv@Romans:14:2 @ For indeed one believes to eat all things; but being weak, [another] eats vegetables.

mkjv@Romans:14:3 @ Do not let him who eats despise him who does not eat; and do not let him who does not eat judge him who eats, for God has received him.

mkjv@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you that judges another's servant? To his own master he stands or falls. But he will stand, for God is able to make him stand.

mkjv@Romans:14:5 @ One indeed esteems a day above [another] day; and [another] esteems every day [alike]. Let each one be fully assured in his own mind.

mkjv@Romans:14:6 @ He who regards the day regards [it] to the Lord; and he not regarding the day, does not regard [it] to the Lord. He who eats, eats to [the] Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, does not eat to [the Lord, and gives God thanks.

mkjv@Romans:14:7 @ For none of us lives to himself, and no one dies to himself.

mkjv@Romans:14:8 @ For both if we live, we live to [the] Lord; and if we die, we die to [the] Lord. Therefore both if we live, and if we die, we are the Lord's.

mkjv@Romans:14:9 @ For this Christ both died and rose and lived again, that He might be Lord both of [the] dead and living.

mkjv@Romans:14:10 @ But why do you judge your brother? Or also why do you despise your brother? For all shall stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

mkjv@Romans:14:11 @ For it is written, As] I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

mkjv@Romans:14:12 @ So then each one of us will give account concerning himself to God.

mkjv@Romans:14:13 @ Then let us not judge one another any more, but rather judge this, not to put a stumbling-block or an offense toward his brother.

mkjv@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am persuaded in [the] Lord Jesus, that nothing by itself [is] common; except to him who esteems anything to be common, [it is] common.

mkjv@Romans:14:15 @ But if your brother is grieved with [your] food, you no longer walk according to love. Do not with your food destroy him for whom Christ died.

mkjv@Romans:14:16 @ Then do not let your good be spoken evil of,

mkjv@Romans:14:17 @ for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Romans:14:18 @ For he who serves Christ in these things [is] well-pleasing to God, and approved by men.

mkjv@Romans:14:19 @ So then let us pursue the things of peace, and the things for building up one another.

mkjv@Romans:14:20 @ Do not undo the work of God for food. Truly, all things indeed [are] clean, but [it is] bad to the man eating because of a stumbling-block.

mkjv@Romans:14:21 @ [It is] good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor [anything] by which your brother stumbles, or is offended, or is made weak.

mkjv@Romans:14:22 @ Do you have faith? Have [it] to yourself before God. Blessed [is] he who does not condemn himself in what he approves.

mkjv@Romans:14:23 @ But, the one doubting, if he eats, [he] has been condemned, because it is not of faith; and all that [is] not of faith is sin.

mkjv@Romans:15:1 @ Then we who are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

mkjv@Romans:15:2 @ Let every one of us please [his] neighbor for [his] good, to building up.

mkjv@Romans:15:3 @ For even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, The reproaches of those who reproached You fell on Me.

mkjv@Romans:15:4 @ For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, so that we through patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.

mkjv@Romans:15:5 @ And may the God of patience and consolation grant you to be like minded toward one another according to Christ Jesus,

mkjv@Romans:15:6 @ so that with one mind [and] one mouth you may glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Romans:15:7 @ Therefore receive one another as Christ also received us, to [the] glory of God.

mkjv@Romans:15:8 @ And I say, Jesus Christ has become a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises [made] to the fathers,

mkjv@Romans:15:9 @ and that the nations might glorify God for [His] mercy, as it is written, For this cause I will confess to You in the nations, and I will praise Your name.

mkjv@Romans:15:10 @ And again He says, Rejoice, O nations, with His people.

mkjv@Romans:15:11 @ And again, Praise the Lord, all the nations, and praise Him, all the peoples.

mkjv@Romans:15:12 @ And again Isaiah says, There shall be a root of Jesse, and He who shall rise to reign over the nations, in Him shall the nations trust.

mkjv@Romans:15:13 @ And may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope through the power of [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Romans:15:14 @ And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brothers, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.

mkjv@Romans:15:15 @ But, brothers, I wrote to you boldly, as reminding you in part, because of the grace that is given to me by God,

mkjv@Romans:15:16 @ that I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the nations, ministering the gospel of God, so that the offering up of the nations might be acceptable, being sanctified by [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Romans:15:17 @ Therefore I have boasting in Christ Jesus [as to] the things pertaining to God.

mkjv@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ did not work out by me for [the] obedience of the nations in word and deed,

mkjv@Romans:15:19 @ in power of miracles and wonders, in power of [the] Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem, and all around to Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.

mkjv@Romans:15:20 @ Yea, so I have been eager to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build on another man's foundation;

mkjv@Romans:15:21 @ but as it is written, To whom nothing was said about Him, they shall see. And they who have not heard shall understand.

mkjv@Romans:15:22 @ For this cause I also have been greatly hindered from coming to you.

mkjv@Romans:15:23 @ But now, having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come to you,

mkjv@Romans:15:24 @ whenever I may go into Spain, I will come to you. For [in] traveling through I hope to see you, and to be set forward there by you, if first I may be filled of you in part.

mkjv@Romans:15:25 @ But now I am going to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.

mkjv@Romans:15:26 @ For it has pleased those of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints in Jerusalem.

mkjv@Romans:15:27 @ Truly it has pleased them, and they are their debtors. For if the nations have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister to them in fleshly things.

mkjv@Romans:15:28 @ Therefore when I have completed this, and have sealed this fruit to them, I will come by you into Spain.

mkjv@Romans:15:29 @ And I am sure that when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of [the] blessing of the gospel of Christ.

mkjv@Romans:15:30 @ But I exhort you, brothers, for the sake of the Lord Jesus Christ and for the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in [your] prayers to God for me,

mkjv@Romans:15:31 @ that I may be delivered from those disbelieving in Judea, and that my service which [I have] for Jerusalem may be accepted by the saints;

mkjv@Romans:15:32 @ so that [I may] come to you with joy by [the] will of God, and may be refreshed with you.

mkjv@Romans:15:33 @ Now may the God of peace [be] with you all. Amen.

mkjv@Romans:16:1 @ I commend to you Phoebe our sister, who is a servant of the church in Cenchrea,

mkjv@Romans:16:2 @ that you receive her in [the] Lord, [as] becomes saints, and that you may assist her in whatever business she has need of you. For she has been a helper of many, and of myself also.

mkjv@Romans:16:3 @ Greet Priscilla and Aquila, my helpers in Christ Jesus,

mkjv@Romans:16:4 @ who have laid down their own necks for my life; to whom not only I give thanks, but also the churches of the nations.

mkjv@Romans:16:5 @ Likewise [greet] the church that is in their house. Greet my beloved Epenetus, who is the first-fruits of Achaia to Christ.

mkjv@Romans:16:6 @ Greet Mary, who bestowed much labor on us.

mkjv@Romans:16:7 @ Greet Andronicus and Junias, my kinsmen and my fellow prisoners, who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.

mkjv@Romans:16:8 @ Greet Amplias my beloved in [the] Lord.

mkjv@Romans:16:9 @ Greet Urbanus, our helper in Christ, and Stachys my beloved.

mkjv@Romans:16:10 @ Greet Apelles, approved in Christ. Greet those who are of Aristobulus' [household].

mkjv@Romans:16:11 @ Greet Herodion my kinsman. Greet those who are of the [household] of Narcissus, who are in [the] Lord.

mkjv@Romans:16:12 @ Greet Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labor in [the] Lord. Greet the beloved Persis, who labored much in [the] Lord.

mkjv@Romans:16:13 @ Greet Rufus, chosen in [the] Lord, and his mother and mine.

mkjv@Romans:16:14 @ Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brothers with them.

mkjv@Romans:16:15 @ Greet Philologus and Julias, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints with them.

mkjv@Romans:16:16 @ Greet one another with a holy kiss. The churches of Christ greet you.

mkjv@Romans:16:17 @ And I exhort you, brothers, to watch those making divisions and offenses contrary to the doctrine which you have learned, and avoid them.

mkjv@Romans:16:18 @ For they who are such do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches [they] deceive the hearts of the simple.

mkjv@Romans:16:19 @ For your obedience reached to all. Therefore I am glad on your behalf, But I would have you truly wise [as] to good, and simple toward evil.

mkjv@Romans:16:20 @ And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you. Amen.

mkjv@Romans:16:21 @ Timothy my fellow worker, and Lucius, and Jason, and Sosipater my kinsmen, greet you.

mkjv@Romans:16:22 @ I, Tertius, who wrote [this] epistle, greet you in [the] Lord.

mkjv@Romans:16:23 @ Gaius my host, and the host of me and the whole church, greets you. Erastus the steward of the city greets you, and Quartus a brother.

mkjv@Romans:16:24 @ May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen.

mkjv@Romans:16:25 @ Now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of [the] mystery, having been unvoiced during eternal times;

mkjv@Romans:16:26 @ but now has been made plain, and by the prophetic Scriptures, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith;

mkjv@Romans:16:27 @ to God only wise [be] glory through Jesus Christ forever. Amen.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, a called apostle of Jesus Christ through [the] will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:2 @ to the church of God which is in Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called out with all those in every place who call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:3 @ Grace [be] to you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:4 @ I thank my God always on your behalf [for] the grace of God given you in Jesus Christ,

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:5 @ that in everything you are enriched by Him, [in] all speech and in all knowledge;

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:6 @ even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you;

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:7 @ so that you come behind in no gift, waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:8 @ He shall also confirm you to [the] end, [that you may be] blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:9 @ God [is] faithful, by whom you were called to [the] fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:10 @ But I exhort you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, [that] you all speak the same thing and that there be no divisions among you; but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been declared to me concerning you, my brothers, by those of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:12 @ But I say this, that every one of you says, I am of Paul, and I of Apollos, and I of Cephas, and I of Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you, or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:14 @ I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:15 @ lest any should say that I had baptized in my own name.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:16 @ And I also baptized the household of Stephanas. Besides these, I do not know if I baptized any other.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel; not in wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the preaching of the cross is foolishness to those being lost, but to us being saved, [it is] the power of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:19 @ For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will set aside the understanding of the perceiving ones.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:20 @ Where [is the] wise? Where [is the] scribe? Where [is the] lawyer of this world? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world [by] wisdom did not know God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:22 @ For the Jews ask for a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom;

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:23 @ but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:24 @ But to them, the called-out ones, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is] the power of God and the wisdom of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:25 @ Because the foolish thing of God is wiser than men, and the weak thing of God is stronger than men.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:26 @ For you see your calling, brothers, that not many wise men according to the flesh [are called], not many mighty, not many noble.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:27 @ But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:28 @ and God has chosen the base things of the world, and things which are despised, and things which are not, in order to bring to nothing things that are;

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:29 @ so that no flesh should glory in His presence.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:30 @ But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who of God is made to us wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption;

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:31 @ so that, according as it is written, He who glories, let him glory in [the] Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And I, brothers, when I came to you, did not come with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring to you the testimony of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:2 @ For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:3 @ And I was with you in weakness and in fear, and in much trembling.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:4 @ And my speech and my preaching [was] not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the] Spirit and of power,

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:5 @ so that your faith should not stand in [the] wisdom of men, but in [the] power of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:6 @ But, we speak wisdom among those who are perfect; yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, that come to nothing.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:7 @ But we speak [the] wisdom of God in a mystery, which God has hidden, predetermining it before the world for our glory;

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:8 @ which none of the rulers of this world knew (for if they had known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory).

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:9 @ But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor has it entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:10 @ But God has revealed [them] to us by His Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, yea, the deep things of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:11 @ For who among men knows the things of a man except the spirit of man within him? So also no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:12 @ But we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit from God, so that we might know the things that are freely given to us by God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:13 @ These things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches, but which the] Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:14 @ But the natural man does not receive the things of [the] Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:15 @ But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is judged by no one.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:16 @ For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:1 @ And I, brothers, could not speak to you as to spiritual ones, but as to fleshly, as to babes in Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:2 @ I have fed you with milk and not with solid food, for you were not yet able [to bear it]; nor are you able even now.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:3 @ For you are yet carnal. For in that [there is] among you envyings and strife and divisions, are you not carnal, and [do you not] walk according to men?

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:4 @ For while one says, I am of Paul; and another, I [am] of Apollos; are you not carnal?

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:5 @ Who then is Paul, and who [is] Apollos, but ministers by whom you believed, even as the Lord gave to each?

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:6 @ I have planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:7 @ So then neither is he who plants anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:8 @ So he planting, and he watering, are one, and each one shall receive [his] own reward according to [his] own labor.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:9 @ For of God we are fellow-workers, a field of God, and you are a building of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God which is given to me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds [on it]. But let every man be careful how he builds [on it].

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:11 @ For any other foundation can no one lay than the one] being laid, who is Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:12 @ And if anyone builds on this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble,

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:13 @ each one's work shall be revealed. For the Day shall declare [it], because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try each one's work as to what kind it is.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:14 @ If anyone's work which he built remains, he shall receive a reward.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:15 @ If anyone's work shall be burned up, he shall suffer loss. But he shall be saved, yet so as by fire.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:16 @ Do you not know that you are a temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwells in you?

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:17 @ If anyone defiles the temple of God, God shall destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which you are.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this world, let him become a fool so that he may be wise.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:19 @ For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; for it is written, He takes the wise in their own craftiness.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:20 @ And again, The] Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:21 @ Therefore let no one glory in men. For all things are yours,

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:22 @ whether it is Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or [the] world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours,

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:23 @ and you are Christ's, and Christ [is] God's.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:1 @ So let a man think of us as ministers of Christ and stewards of [the] mysteries of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:2 @ And the rest, it is sought among stewards that one be found faithful.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:3 @ But to me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you, or by a man's day; but I do not judge my own self,

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:4 @ for I know nothing by myself. Yet I have not been justified by this, but He who judges me is [the] Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts. And then shall each one have praise of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:6 @ And these things, brothers, I have [in a figure] transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, so that you might learn in us not to think [of men] above that which is written, so that no one of you may [be] puffed up against one another.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who makes you to differ [from another]? And what do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive [it], why do you boast as [if you] had not received it?

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:8 @ Already you are full! Already you are rich! You have reigned [as kings] without us! And oh that indeed you did reign, that we also might reign with you.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For I think that God has set forth us last, the apostles, as it were appointed to death; for we have become a spectacle to the world and to angels and to men.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:10 @ We [are] fools for Christ's sake, but you [are] wise in Christ. We [are] weak, but you [are] strong. You [are] honorable, but we [are] despised.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:11 @ Even until this present hour we both hunger and thirst and are naked and are buffeted and have no certain dwelling place.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:12 @ And we labor, working with our own hands. Being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it;

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:13 @ being defamed, we entreat. We are made as the filth of the world, the offscouring of all [things] until now.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write these things to shame you, but as my beloved children I warn [you].

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:15 @ For though you have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet [you do] not [have] many fathers; for I have begotten you in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore I beseech you, be imitators of me.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:17 @ For this cause I have sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved son and faithful in [the] Lord, who shall remind you [of] my ways which are] in Christ, as I teach everywhere in every church.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:18 @ As to my not coming to you now, some are puffed up.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord wills. And I will not know the speech of those who are puffed up, but the power.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:20 @ For the kingdom of God [is] not in word, but in power.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:21 @ What do you desire? Shall I come to you with a rod, or [in] love and the spirit of meekness?

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:1 @ On the whole it is reported [that there is] fornication among you, and such fornication as is not even named among the nations, so as one to have [his] father's wife.

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:2 @ And you are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, so that he who has done this deed may be taken from your midst.

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:3 @ For as being absent in body but present in spirit, I indeed have judged already [as though I were] present [concerning] him who worked out this thing;

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:4 @ in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, with my spirit; also, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ;

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:5 @ to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:6 @ Your boasting [is] not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump?

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:7 @ Therefore purge out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, as you are unleavened. For also Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us.

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:8 @ Therefore let us keep [the] feast; not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened [bread] of sincerity and truth.

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I wrote to you in the letter not to associate intimately with fornicators;

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:10 @ yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then you must go out of the world.

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But now I have written to you not to associate intimately, if any man called a brother [and is] either a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such a one not to eat.

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:12 @ For what [is it] to me to also judge those who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside?

mkjv@1Corinthians:5:13 @ But God judges those who are outside. Therefore put out from you the evil one.

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:1 @ Do any of you dare, when you have a matter against another, to go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that the saints shall judge the world? And if the world shall be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:3 @ Do you not know that we shall judge angels, not to mention the things] of this] life?

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If, then, you truly have judgments of [the things] of this] life, set those who are least esteemed in the church [to judge].

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:5 @ For I speak to your shame. [Is it] so [that] there is not a wise one among you, not even one in your midst who shall be able to judge between his brother?

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:6 @ But brother goes to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:7 @ Indeed then there is already on the whole a failure among you, that you have lawsuits with yourselves. Why not instead be wronged? Why not instead be defrauded?

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:8 @ But you do wrong and defraud, and these things to brothers.

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit [the] kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor abusers, nor homosexuals,

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:10 @ nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit [the] kingdom of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you. But you are washed, but you are sanctified, but you are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:12 @ All things are lawful to me, but not all things profit. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:13 @ Meats for the belly and the belly for meats, but God shall destroy both it and them. But the body [is] not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord is for the body.

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:14 @ And God has both raised up the Lord, and also will raise us up by His own power.

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:15 @ Do you not know that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make [them] the members of a harlot? Let it not be!

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Or do you not know that he being joined to a harlot is one body? For He says, The two shall be one flesh.

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But he being joined to the Lord is one spirit.

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:18 @ Flee fornication. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits fornication sins against [his] own body.

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:19 @ Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit in you, whom you have of God? And you are not your own,

mkjv@1Corinthians:6:20 @ for you are bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:1 @ Now concerning what you wrote to me: [It is] good for a man not to touch a woman.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:2 @ But, because of the fornications, let each have his [own] wife, and let each have her own husband.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:3 @ Let the husband give to the wife proper kindness, and likewise the wife also to the husband.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:4 @ The wife does not have authority over [her] own body, but the husband. And likewise also the husband does not have authority [over his] own body, but the wife.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not deprive one another, unless [it is] with consent for a time, so that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer. And come together again so that Satan does not tempt you for your incontinence.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:6 @ But I speak this according to permission, not according to commandment.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:7 @ For I would that all men were even as I myself am. But each has his proper gift from God, one according to this manner and another according to that.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:8 @ I say therefore to the unmarried and the widows, It is good for them if they remain even as I.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:9 @ But if they do not have self-control, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:10 @ And to the married I command (not I, but the Lord), a woman not to be separated from [her] husband.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:11 @ But if she is indeed separated, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to [her] husband. And a husband is not to leave [his] wife.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:12 @ But to the rest I speak, not the Lord, If any brother has a wife who does not believe, and she is pleased to dwell with him, do not let him put her away.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:13 @ And the woman who has a husband who does not believe, if he is pleased to dwell with her, do not let her leave him.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband; else your children would be unclean, but now they are holy.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbelieving one separates, let [him] be separated. A brother or a sister is not in bondage in such [cases], but God has called us in peace.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:16 @ For what do you know, O wife, whether you shall save [your] husband? Or what do you know, O man, whether you shall save [your] wife?

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:17 @ But as God has distributed to each one, as the Lord has called each one, so let him walk. And so I ordain in all churches.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:18 @ [Was] any called having been circumcised? Do not be uncircumcised. Was anyone called in uncircumcision? Do not be circumcised.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:19 @ Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:20 @ Let each one remain in the calling in which he was called.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you called as a slave? It does not matter to you, but if you are able to become free, use [it] rather.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:22 @ For he who is called a slave in [the] Lord is a freed man of [the] Lord. And likewise, he who is called a free man is a slave of Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:23 @ You are bought with a price, do not be the slaves of men.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:24 @ Each in whatever way he was called, brothers, in this remain with God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:25 @ But concerning virgins, I have no commandment from [the] Lord. Yet I give my judgment, as one who has obtained mercy from the Lord to be faithful.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:26 @ Then I think this is good, because of the present necessity; that [it is] good for a man to be so.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:27 @ Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be free. Are you loosed from a wife? Do not seek a wife.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:28 @ But if you do marry, you did not sin; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. But such shall have trouble in the flesh, but I spare you.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:29 @ But this I say, brothers, The time [is] short. It remains that both those who have wives should be as not having one.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:30 @ And they who weep are as [though they did] not weep. And they who rejoice are as [though they did] not rejoice. And they who buy are as though they did] not possess.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:31 @ And they who use this world are] as not abusing [it], for the fashion of this world is passing away.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:32 @ But I desire you to be without anxiety. The [one] who is unmarried cares for the things that belong to [the] Lord, how to please the Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:33 @ But the [one] who is married cares for the things of the world, how to please [his] wife.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:34 @ The wife and the virgin [are] different. The unmarried woman cares for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares for the things of the world, how she may please [her husband.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:35 @ And this I speak for your own profit, not that I may cast a snare on you, but for that which is right, and that you may attend on the Lord without distraction.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:36 @ But if anyone thinks [it] behaving himself indecently toward his virgin (if she is past [her] prime, and so it ought to be) let him do what he will; he does not sin; let them marry.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:37 @ But [he] who stands steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but who has authority over [his] own will (and has so judged in his heart that he will keep his virginity) he does well.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:38 @ So then he who gives in marriage does well. But he who does not give in marriage does better.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:39 @ The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband lives, but if her husband sleeps in death, she is at liberty to be remarried to whom she will, only in the Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But she is happier if she so remains, according to my judgment. And I also think that I have [the] Spirit of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:1 @ But concerning the sacrifices to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:2 @ And if any man thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:3 @ But if any one loves God, he has been known of him.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Then concerning the eating of the things sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol [is] nothing in [the] world, and that [there] is no other God except one.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For though there are those who are called gods, whether in Heaven or in earth (as there are many gods and many lords),

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:6 @ but [there is] to us [only] one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we by Him.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:7 @ But this knowledge [is] not in all. But some being aware of the idol eat as an idolatrous sacrifice until now, and their conscience being weak is defiled.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But food does not commend us to God. For neither if we eat are we the better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours becomes a stumbling block to those who are weak.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if anyone sees you who have knowledge sitting in an idol temple, will not the weak one's conscience be lifted up so as to eat things sacrificed to idols?

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:11 @ And on your knowledge the weak brother will fall, he for whom Christ died.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:12 @ And sinning in this way against [your] brothers, and wounding their conscience, being weak, you sin against Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:13 @ Therefore, if food offends my brother, I will eat no flesh forever, that I do not offend my brother.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:1 @ Am I not an apostle? Am I not free? Have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? Are you not my work in [the] Lord?

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:2 @ If I am not an apostle to others, yet doubtless I am to you, for you are the seal of my apostleship in [the] Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:3 @ My answer to those who examine me is this:

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:4 @ Do we not have authority to eat and to drink?

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:5 @ Do we not have authority to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and [as] the brothers of the Lord do, and Cephas?

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:6 @ Or [is it] only Barnabas and I [who] have no authority whether] not to work?

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:7 @ Who serves as a soldier at his own wages at any time? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat of its fruit? Or who feeds a flock and does not partake of the milk of the flock?

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:8 @ Do I say these things according to man? Or does not the Law say the same also?

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:9 @ For it is written in the law of Moses, You shall not muzzle an ox threshing grain. Does God take care for oxen?

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Or does He say [it] altogether for our sakes? It was written for us, so that he who plows should plow [in] hope, and so that he who threshes [in] hope should be partaker of his hope.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:11 @ If we have sown to you spiritual things, [is it] a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others have a share of [this] authority [over] you, rather [should] not we? But we have not used this authority, but we endured all things lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:13 @ Do you not know that those who minister about holy things live [of the things] of the temple? And those attending the altar are partakers with the altar.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:14 @ Even so, the Lord ordained those announcing the gospel to live from the gospel.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have used none of these things, nor have I written these things that it should be done so to me; for [it is] good for me rather to die than that anyone nullify my glorying.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:16 @ For though I preach the gospel, no glory is to me. For necessity is laid on me; yea, woe is to me if I do not preach the gospel!

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:17 @ For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward; but if against my will, I am entrusted with a stewardship.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:18 @ What then is my reward? That when I preach the gospel I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I may not abuse my authority in the gospel.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:19 @ For though I am free from all, yet I have made myself servant to all, so that I might gain the more.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:20 @ And to the Jews I became as a Jew, so that I might gain the Jews. To those who are under the Law, [I became] as under the Law, so that I might gain those who are under the Law.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:21 @ To those who are outside Law, [I became] as outside Law (not being outside law to God, but under [the] law to Christ), so that I might gain those who are outside Law.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:22 @ To the weak I became as the weak, so that I might gain the weak. I am made all things to all [men], so that I might by all means save some.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:23 @ And this I do for the sake of the gospel, so that I might be partaker of it [with you].

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:24 @ Do you not know that those running in a race all run, but one receives the prize? So run, that you may obtain.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:25 @ And everyone who strives for the mastery is temperate in all things. Then those truly that they may receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:26 @ So then I run, not as if I were uncertain. And so I fight, not as [one who] beats the air.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I buffet my body, and lead [it] captive, lest proclaiming to others I myself might be rejected.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:1 @ And, brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:2 @ And all were baptized to Moses in the cloud and in the sea,

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:3 @ and all ate the same spiritual food,

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:4 @ and all drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank of the spiritual Rock that followed them, and that Rock was Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:5 @ But with many of them God was not well pleased, for they were scattered in the wilderness.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:6 @ And these things were our examples, that we should not be lusters after evil, as they also lusted.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:7 @ Nor should we be idolaters, even as some of them, as it is written: The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:8 @ Nor let us commit fornication, as some of them fornicated, and twenty-three thousand fell in one day.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:9 @ Nor let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted Him and were destroyed by serpents.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:10 @ Nor murmur as some of them also murmured and were destroyed by the destroyer.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:11 @ And all these things happened to them [as] examples; and [it] is written for our warning on whom the ends of the world have come.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:12 @ So let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has taken you but [what is] common to man; but God [is] faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but with the temptation also will make a way to escape, so that you may be able to bear [it].

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:14 @ Therefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:15 @ I speak as to wise men; you judge what I say.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:16 @ The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:17 @ For we, the many, are one bread [and] one body; for we are all partakers of that one bread.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:18 @ Behold Israel after the flesh. Are not those who eat of the sacrifices also partakers of the altar?

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:19 @ What then do I say? That the idol is anything, or that an idolatrous sacrifice is anything?

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:20 @ But [I say] that the things which the nations sacrifice, [they] sacrifice to demons and not to God. And I do not desire that you should have fellowship with demons.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:21 @ You cannot drink [the] cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot be partakers of [the] Lord's table and of a table of demons.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:22 @ Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He?

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:23 @ All things are lawful to me, but not all things profit. All things are lawful to me, but not all things build up.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:24 @ Let no one seek his own, but each one another's.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:25 @ Eat whatever is sold in the meat market, asking no question for conscience' sake;

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:26 @ for the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fullness of it.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If any of those who do not believe invite you [to a feast], and if you are disposed to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no questions for conscience' sake.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if anyone says to you, This is slain in sacrifice to idols, do not eat for the sake of him who showed [it], and for conscience' sake; for the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fullness of it;

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:29 @ conscience, I say, not your own, but the other's. For why is my liberty judged by another's conscience?

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:30 @ For if I by grace am a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that [for] which I give thanks?

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:31 @ Therefore whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:32 @ Give no offense, either to the Jews, or to the Greeks or to the church of God;

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:33 @ even as I please all [men] in all [things], not seeking my own profit, but the [profit] of the many, so that they may be saved.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:1 @ Be imitators of me, even as I also [am] of Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:2 @ But I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in all things, and you keep the doctrines as I delivered [them] to you.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:3 @ But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman [is] the man; and the head of Christ [is] God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:4 @ Every man praying or prophesying with [his] head covered dishonors his Head.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman who prays or prophesies with [her] head unveiled dishonors her head; for that is even the same as if she were shaved.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if the woman is not veiled, let her also be shorn. But [if it] is a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be veiled.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:7 @ For a man indeed ought not to have [his] head covered, because he is the image and glory of God. But the woman is [the] glory of [the] man.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:8 @ For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:9 @ Nor was the man created for the woman, but the woman for the man.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:10 @ For this reason the woman ought to have authority on [her] head because of the angels.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:11 @ But neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man, in the Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:12 @ For as the woman [is] of the man, even so the man [is] also through the woman; but all things of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Judge among yourselves: is it right that a woman pray to God unveiled?

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:14 @ Does not even nature itself teach you that if man has long hair, it is a shame to him?

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:15 @ But if a woman should have long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her in place of a veil.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:16 @ But if anyone seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor the churches of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:17 @ But in enjoining this, I do not praise [you], because you come together not for the better, but for the worse.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For first of all, when you come together in the church, I hear that there are divisions among you, and I partly believe it.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must also be heresies among you, that the approved ones may be revealed among you.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:20 @ Therefore when you come together into one place, [this] is not to eat [the] Lord's supper.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:21 @ For in eating each one takes his own supper first; and one is hungry, and another drunken.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:22 @ For do you not have houses [in which] to eat and drink? Or do you despise the church of God, and shame those who do not have? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? I do not praise [you]!

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which he was betrayed took bread;

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:24 @ And giving thanks, He broke [it] and said, Take, eat; this is My body, which is broken for you; this do in remembrance of Me.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same way [He took] the cup also, after supping, saying, This cup is the New Covenant in My blood; as often as you drink it, do this in remembrance of Me.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you show the Lord's death until He shall come.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:27 @ So that whoever shall eat this bread and drink [this] cup of the Lord unworthily, he will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:28 @ But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of [that] bread and drink of that cup.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:29 @ For he who eats and drinks unworthily eats and drinks condemnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:30 @ For this cause many among you [are] weak and sickly, and many sleep.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:31 @ For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged, we are chastened by [the] Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:33 @ So that, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:34 @ But if anyone hungers, let him eat at home, so that you do not come together to condemnation. And the rest I will set in order when I come.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:1 @ Now concerning spiritual [gifts], brothers, I would not have you ignorant.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:2 @ You know that being led away, you nations were led to dumb idols.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by [the] Spirit of God says Jesus [is] a curse, and [that] no one can say that Jesus [is] Lord, but by the Holy Spirit.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:4 @ But there are differences of gifts, but the same Spirit.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:5 @ And there are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:6 @ And there are differences of workings, but it is the same God working all things in all.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:7 @ But to each one is given the showing forth of the Spirit to [our] profit.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:8 @ For through the Spirit is given to one a word of wisdom; and to another a word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:9 @ and to another faith by the same Spirit; and to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:10 @ and to another workings of powers, to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; and to another kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But the one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing separately to each one as He desires.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, [are] one body; so also [is] Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For also by one Spirit we are all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free, even all were made to drink into one Spirit.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:14 @ For the body is not one member, but many.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:17 @ If all the body [were] an eye, where [would be] the hearing? If all hearing, where [would be] the smelling?

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body as it has pleased Him.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:19 @ And if they were all one member, where [would be] the body?

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:20 @ But now indeed many [are] the members, yet only one body.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:21 @ And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of you; nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:22 @ But much rather the members of the body seeming to be weaker are necessary.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:23 @ And those [members] of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we put more abundant honor around [them]. And our unpresentable [members] have more abundant propriety.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:24 @ For our presentable [members] have no need, but God tempered the body together, giving more abundant honor to the [member] having need;

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there not be division in the body, but [that] the members should have the same care for one another.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:26 @ And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with [it]; if one member is glorified, all the members rejoice with [it].

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:27 @ And you are the body of Christ, and members in part.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God set some in the church, firstly, apostles; secondly, prophets; thirdly, teachers, then works of power, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, kinds of languages.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:29 @ [Are] all apostles? [Are] all prophets? [Are] all teachers? [Are] all workers of power?

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:30 @ Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak languages? Do all interpret?

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:31 @ But zealously strive after the better gifts. And yet I show to you a more excellent way.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:1 @ Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I have become [as] sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:2 @ And though I have prophecies, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so as to move mountains, and do not have charity, I am nothing.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And though I give out all my goods to feed the poor], and though I deliver my body to be burned, and have not charity, I am profited nothing.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:4 @ Charity has patience, is kind; charity is not envious, is not vain, is not puffed up;

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:5 @ does not behave indecently, does not seek her own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:6 @ Charity does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices in the truth,

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:7 @ quietly covers all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Charity never fails. But if [there are] prophecies, they will be abolished; if tongues, they shall cease; if knowledge, it will be abolished.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:9 @ For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:10 @ But when the perfect thing comes, then that which is in part will be caused to cease.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was an infant, I spoke as an infant, I thought as an infant, I reasoned as an infant. But when I became a man, I did away with the things of an infant.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall fully know even as I also am fully known.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:13 @ And now faith, hope, charity, these three remain; but the greatest of these [is] charity.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Follow after charity and desire spiritual [things], but rather that you may prophesy.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God. For no one hears, but in spirit he speaks mysteries.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But he who prophesies speaks to men [for] building up, and exhortation, and comfort.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:4 @ The one speaking in a tongue builds himself up, but he prophesying builds up a church.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I wish all of you to speak in languages, but rather that you may prophesy; for greater [is] he prophesying than he speaking in tongues, unless he interpret so that the church may receive building up.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brothers, if I come to you speaking in tongues, what will I profit you, except I speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in teaching?

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:7 @ Yet lifeless things giving a sound, whether flute or harp, if they do not give a distinction in the sound, how will it be known what is being piped or harped?

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:8 @ For also if a trumpet gives an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself for the battle?

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So also you, if you do not give a clear word through the language, how will it be known what [is] being said? For you will be speaking into the air.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:10 @ So it may be many kinds of sounds are in [the] world, and not one [is] without a distinct sound.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:11 @ Therefore if I do not know the power of the sound, I will be a foreigner to him speaking, and he speaking [will be] a foreigner to me.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:12 @ Even so you, since you are zealots of spiritual [things], seek to build up the church, in order that you may abound

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:13 @ So then he speaking in a language, let him pray that he may interpret.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:14 @ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:15 @ What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the mind; I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the mind.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Else, if you bless in the spirit, he occupying the place of the unlearned, how will he say the amen at your giving of thanks, since he does not know what you say?

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:17 @ For you truly give thanks well, but the other is not built up.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:18 @ I thank my God [that] I speak more languages than all of you;

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:19 @ yet in a church I desire to speak five words with my mind, so that I might also teach others, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:20 @ Brothers, do not be children in your minds, but in malice be like infants, and in your minds be mature.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the law it is written, By other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people, and even so they will not hear Me, says the Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:22 @ So that tongues are not a sign to those who believe, but to those who do not believe. But prophesying [is] not to those who do not believe, but to those who believe.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Therefore if the whole church has come together, and all speak in languages, and if uninstructed ones or unbelievers come in, will they not say that you rave?

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But if all prophesy, and some unbeliever or one not instructed comes, he is convicted by all, he is judged by all.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:25 @ And so the secrets of his heart become revealed. And so, falling down on [his] face, he will worship God and report that God is truly among you.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ Then how is it, brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be for building up.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If one speaks in a language, [let it be] by two, or [at] the most three, and in succession. And let one interpret.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there is no interpreter, let him be silent in a church; and let him speak to himself and to God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:29 @ And [if there are] two or three prophets, let them speak, and let the others judge.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:30 @ If [a revelation] is revealed to another sitting by, let the first be silent.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:31 @ For you may all prophesy one by one, so that all may learn and all may be comforted.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:32 @ And the spirits of the prophets [are] subject to the prophets.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:33 @ For God is not [the author] of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:34 @ Let your women be silent in the churches; for it is not permitted to them to speak, but to be in subjection, as the Law also says.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:35 @ And if they desire to learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home; for it is a shame for a woman to speak in a church.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:36 @ Or did the Word of God go out from you? Or did it reach only to you?

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If anyone thinks to be a prophet, or a spiritual one, let him recognize the things I write to you, that they are a commandment of the Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:38 @ But if any is ignorant, let him be ignorant.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:39 @ So then, brothers, seek to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak in languages.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:40 @ Let all things be done decently and in order.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:1 @ And, brothers, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you have received, and in which you stand;

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:2 @ by which you also are being kept safe, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received, that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures,

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:4 @ and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures;

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:5 @ and that He was seen by Cephas, then by the Twelve.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:6 @ Afterward He was seen by over five hundred brothers at once, of whom the greater part remain until this present day, but also some fell asleep.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:7 @ Afterward He was seen by James, then by all the apostles.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:8 @ And last of all He was seen by me also, as one born out of time.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles and am not sufficient to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace which [was] toward me has not been without fruit, but I labored more abundantly than all of them; yet not I, but the grace of God with me.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:11 @ Therefore whether [it was] I or they, so we preach, and so you believed.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ But if Christ is proclaimed, that He was raised from [the] dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:13 @ But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Christ been raised.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:14 @ And if Christ has not been raised, then our proclamation [is] worthless, and your faith [is] also worthless.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:15 @ And we are also found [to be] false witnesses of God, because we testified of God that He raised Christ; whom He did not raise if the dead are not raised.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:16 @ For if [the] dead are not raised, then Christ is not raised.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:17 @ And if Christ is not raised, your faith [is] foolish; you are yet in your sins.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:18 @ Then also those that fell asleep in Christ were lost.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:19 @ If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But now Christ has risen from [the] dead, [and] has become the firstfruit of those who slept.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For since death [is] through man, the resurrection of [the] dead also [is] through a Man.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:22 @ For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all will be made alive.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But each in [his] own order: Christ the first-fruit, and afterward they who are Christ's at His coming;

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:24 @ then [is] the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God, even the Father; when He makes to cease all rule and all authority and power.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:25 @ for it is right for Him to reign until He has put all the enemies under His feet.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:26 @ The last enemy made to cease [is] death.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:27 @ For He put all things under His feet. But when He says that all things have been put under [His feet], it is plain that [it] excepts Him who has put all things under Him.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:28 @ But when all things are subjected to Him, then the Son Himself also will be subject to Him who has subjected all things to Him, so that God may be all things in all.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Otherwise, what will they do, those being baptized on behalf of [the] dead? If the dead are not at all raised, why indeed are they baptized on behalf of [the] dead?

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:30 @ And why are we also in danger every hour?

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:31 @ Day by day I die, by your rejoicing, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:32 @ If according to man I fought with beasts in Ephesus, what advantage is to me if [the] dead are not raised? Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:33 @ Do not be deceived; evil companionships corrupt good habits.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Be righteously awake, and sin not; for some have ignorance of God. I speak [this] to your shame.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But someone will say, How are the dead raised up, and with what body do they come?

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:36 @ Foolish one! What you sow is not made alive unless it dies.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And what you sow, you do not sow the body that [is] going to be, but a bare grain (perhaps of wheat or of some of the rest).

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:38 @ And God gives it a body as it has pleased Him, and to each of the seeds its own body.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:39 @ All flesh [is] not the same flesh; but one [kind of] flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fish, and another of birds.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:40 @ [There are] also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. But the glory of the heavenly [is] truly different, and that of the earthly different;

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:41 @ one glory of [the] sun, and another glory of [the] moon, and another glory of [the] stars; for [one] star differs from [another] star in glory.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So also the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption;

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:43 @ it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:44 @ it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:45 @ And so it is written, The first man, Adam, became a living soul, the last Adam was a life-giving Spirit.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:46 @ But not the spiritual first, but the natural; afterward the spiritual.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:47 @ The first man [was] out of earth, earthy; the second Man [was] the Lord from Heaven.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:48 @ Such the earthy [man], such also the earthy ones. And such the heavenly [Man], such also the heavenly ones.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:49 @ And according as we bore the image of the earthy [man], we shall also bear the image of the heavenly [Man].

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:50 @ And I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit [the] kingdom of God, nor does corruption inherit incorruption.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:51 @ Behold, I speak a mystery to you; we shall not all fall asleep, but we shall all be changed;

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:52 @ in a moment, in a glance of an eye, at the last trumpet. For a trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall all be changed.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:53 @ For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal [must] put on immortality.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:54 @ But when this corruptible shall put on incorruption, and when this mortal shall put on immortality, then will take place the word that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:55 @ O death, where [is] your sting? O grave, where [is] your victory?

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:56 @ The sting of death [is] sin, and the strength of sin [is] the law.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:57 @ But thanks [be] to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:58 @ So that, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not without fruit in the Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:1 @ And concerning the collection for the saints, as I charged the churches of Galatia, so also you do.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first of the sabbaths let each of you put by himself, storing up what ever he is prospered, so that there may be no collections when I come.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:3 @ And when I come, whomever you shall approve by [your] letters, I will send them to bring your gift to Jerusalem.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:4 @ And if it is suitable for me to go also, they shall go with me.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:5 @ But I will come to you when I pass through Macedonia; for I am going through Macedonia.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:6 @ And it may be that I will stay with you, and even spend the winter with you, so that you may set me forward wherever I go.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:7 @ For I do not desire to see you now in passage, but I am hoping to stay some time with you, if the Lord permits.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:8 @ But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:9 @ For a great and effective door opened to me, and many [are] opposing.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:10 @ But if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he works the work of the Lord, even as I [do].

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Therefore let not any despise him, but set him forward in peace, so that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brothers.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:12 @ As regards [our] brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come to you with the brothers, but it was not altogether [his] will that he come now. But he will come when he has opportunity.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:13 @ Watch! Stand fast in the faith! Be men! Be strong!

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:14 @ Let all your things be done in charity.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:15 @ But I exhort you, brothers. You know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruit of Achaia, and they appointed themselves to ministry to the saints.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:16 @ See that you also submit to such ones, and to everyone working and laboring with [me].

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:17 @ I am glad at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus; for these supplied your lack.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:18 @ For they have refreshed my spirit and yours; then acknowledge such ones.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you much in [the] Lord, with the church that is in their house.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:20 @ All the brothers greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:21 @ The salutation of Paul with my own hand.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:22 @ If anyone does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accursed. The Lord comes!

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:23 @ May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:24 @ Let my love [be] with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy [our] brother, to the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in all Achaia.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:2 @ Grace [be] unto you, and peace from God our Father and [from the] Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:3 @ Blessed [be] God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort,

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:4 @ He comforting us in all our trouble, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in every trouble, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:5 @ For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds by Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:6 @ And if we are troubled, [it is] for your consolation and salvation, being worked out in [the] endurance of the same sufferings which we also suffer; if we are comforted, [it is] for your consolation and salvation.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:7 @ And our hope of you [is] certain, knowing that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also of the consolation.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For, brothers, we would not have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength; so much so that we despaired even of life.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:9 @ But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, so that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead;

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:10 @ who delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver; in whom we trust that He will yet deliver [us],

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:11 @ with you also helping together by prayer for us, so that the gracious gift by many persons be [the cause of] thanksgiving through many for us.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity; not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God; we have had our conduct in the world, and more abundantly toward you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For we write no other things to you than what you read or recognize, and I trust you shall recognize them even to the end,

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:14 @ even as you have recognized us [in] part, that we are your rejoicing, even as you also [are] ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:15 @ And in this confidence I intended to come to you before, so that you might have a second benefit,

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:16 @ and to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia to you, and to be brought on my way toward Judea by you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:17 @ Then purposing this, did I indeed use lightness? Or the things that I purpose, do I purpose them according to the flesh, so that with me there should be yes, yes, and no, no?

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:18 @ But [as] God [is] true, our word toward you was not yes and no.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us; by me and Silas and Timothy; was not yes and no, but in Him was, yes!

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:20 @ For all the promises of God in Him [are] yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God by us.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:21 @ But He confirming us and anointing us with you in Christ [is] God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:22 @ And He has sealed us and having given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:23 @ And I call God [as] witness to my soul that in order to spare you I have not yet come to Corinth.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we have dominion over your faith, but we are helpers of your joy; for by faith you stand.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:1 @ But I determined this within myself, that I would not come to you again in grief.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I make you sorry, who then is he who makes me glad, but the same who has been made sorry by me?

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote this to you, lest when I came I should have sorrow from the [ones] of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is [the joy] of you all.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For out of much trouble and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be grieved, but that you might know the love which I have more abundantly to you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if anyone has caused grief, he has not grieved me, except in part; so that I not overbear all of you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:6 @ This punishment by the majority [is] enough for such a one;

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:7 @ so that, on the contrary, you should rather forgive and comfort [him], lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overwhelming sorrow.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:8 @ So I beseech you to confirm [your] love toward him.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For to this end I also wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether you are obedient in all things.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:10 @ But to whom you forgive anything, I also [forgive]. For if I forgave anything, for your sakes I forgave [it] to him in the person of Christ;

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:11 @ so that we should not be overreached by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his devices.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:12 @ And, when I came to Troas to [preach] Christ's gospel, and a door was opened to me by [the] Lord,

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:13 @ I had no rest in my spirit because I did not find Titus my brother. But taking my leave of them, I went from there into Macedonia.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:14 @ Now thanks [be] to God, who always causes us to triumph in Christ, and He revealing through us the odor of the knowledge of Him in every place.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are to God a sweet savor of Christ, in those being saved, and in those being lost;

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:16 @ to the one [we are] the savor of death to death, and to the other we are the savor of life to life. And who is sufficient for these things?

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we are not as many, hawking the Word of God; but as of sincerity, but as of God, we speak in Christ in the sight of God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, like some, epistles of commendation to you, or [letters] of commendation from you?

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:2 @ You are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read by all men,

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:3 @ [it] having been made plain that you are the epistle of Christ, ministered by us, not having been written with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not on tablets of stone, but in fleshly tablets of [the] heart.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:4 @ And we have such trust through Christ toward God,

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:5 @ not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves, but our sufficiency [is] of God;

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:6 @ who also has made us able ministers of the new covenant; not of the letter, but of the spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit makes alive.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:7 @ But if the ministry of death, having been engraved in letters in stone was with glory (so that the sons of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses because of the glory of his face), which was being done away;

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:8 @ shall not the ministry of the Spirit be with more glory?

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:9 @ For if the ministry of condemnation [is] glorious, much more does the ministry of righteousness exceed in glory.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:10 @ For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, because of the glory that excels.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:11 @ For if that which has been done away [was] glorious, much more that which remains [is] glorious.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:12 @ Then since we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:13 @ And we are not like Moses, [who] put a veil over his face so that the sons of Israel could not steadfastly look to the end of the thing being done away.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:14 @ (But their thoughts were blinded; for until the present the same veil remains on the reading of the old covenant, not taken away.) But this veil has been done away in Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:15 @ But until this day, when Moses is read, the veil is on their heart.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:16 @ But whenever it turns to [the] Lord, the veil shall be taken away.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:17 @ And the Lord [is] that Spirit; and where the Spirit of [the] Lord [is], there [is] liberty.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:18 @ But we all, with [our] face having been unveiled, having beheld the glory of the Lord as in a mirror, are being changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Lord Spirit.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:1 @ Therefore since we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we do not faint.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:2 @ But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor adulterating the Word of God, but [by] the revelation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:3 @ But also if our gospel is hidden, it is hidden to those being lost,

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:4 @ in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving ones, so that the light of the glorious gospel of Christ (who is the image of God) should not dawn on them.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:5 @ For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:6 @ For [it is] God who said, Out of darkness Light shall shine; who shone in our hearts to [give] the brightness of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:7 @ But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us;

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:8 @ in every [way] having been troubled, but not having been hemmed in; having been perplexed, but not utterly at a loss;

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:9 @ having been persecuted, but not having been forsaken; having been thrown down, but not having been destroyed;

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:10 @ always bearing about the dying of the Lord Jesus in the body, so that the life of Jesus also might be revealed in our body.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For we who live are always being delivered to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus might also be revealed in our body.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:12 @ So then death works in us, but life in you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:13 @ For we, having the same spirit of faith (according as it is written, I believed, and therefore I have spoken); we also believed and therefore speak,

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:14 @ knowing that He who raised up the Lord Jesus shall also raise us up by Jesus, and shall present [us] with you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:15 @ For all things [are] for your sake, so that the superabounding grace might be made to abound through the thanksgiving of the greater number, to the glory of God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:16 @ For this cause we do not faint; but though our outward man perishes, yet the inward [man] is being renewed day by day.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:17 @ For the lightness of our present affliction works out for us a far more excellent eternal weight of glory,

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:18 @ we not considering the things which are seen, but the things which are not seen; for the things which [are] seen [are] not lasting, but the things which [are] not seen [are] everlasting.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:1 @ For we know that if our earthly house of [this] tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:2 @ For indeed in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our dwelling-place out of Heaven;

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:3 @ if indeed [in] being clothed, we shall not be found naked.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For we who are in [this] tabernacle groan, being burdened; inasmuch as we do not wish to be unclothed, but to be clothed, so that the mortal might be swallowed up by the life.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:5 @ And He who has worked in us for this same thing [is] God, who also [is] giving to us the earnest of the Spirit.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:6 @ Then being always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body, we are away from home from the Lord;

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:7 @ for we walk by faith, not by sight;

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:8 @ then we are confident and we are pleased rather to go away from home out of the body, and to come home to the Lord.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:9 @ Therefore we are also laboring to be well-pleasing to Him, whether at home or away from home.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive the things done] through the body, according to that which he has done, whether good or bad.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men. But we are revealed to God, and I trust also that we are revealed in your consciences.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:12 @ For we do not commend ourselves again to you, but are giving you occasion to glory on our behalf, so that you may have [it] to [answer] those boasting in appearance, and not in heart.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:13 @ For if we are out of our mind, [it is] to God; or [if] we are in our senses, [it is] for you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:14 @ For the love of Christ constrains us, judging this, that if one died for all, then all died;

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:15 @ and He died for all, that the living ones may live no more to themselves, but to Him who died for them and having been raised.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:16 @ So as we now know no one according to flesh, but even if we have known Christ according to flesh, yet now we no longer know [Him so.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:17 @ So that if any one [is] in Christ, [that one is] a new creature; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:18 @ And all things [are] of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:19 @ whereas God was in Christ reconciling [the] world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and putting the word of reconciliation in us.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:20 @ Then we are ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as God exhorting through us, we beseech [you] on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:21 @ For He has made Him who knew no sin, [to be] sin for us, that we might become [the] righteousness of God in Him.

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:1 @ But working together, we also call on you not to receive the grace of God in vain.

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:2 @ (For He says, In an acceptable time I heard you, and in a day of salvation, I helped you; Behold, now [is] the accepted time. Behold, now [is] the day of salvation.)

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:3 @ [We are] in nothing giving cause of stumbling, in no way, so that the ministry may not be blamed,

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:4 @ but in everything commending ourselves as God's servants, in much patience, in troubles, in emergencies, in distresses,

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:5 @ in stripes, in imprisonments, in riots, in labors, in watchings, in fastings;

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:6 @ in pureness, in knowledge, in long-suffering, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in love unfeigned,

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:7 @ in [the] word of truth, in [the] power of God, through the weapons of righteousness on the right [hand] and on the left,

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:8 @ through glory and dishonor, through evil report and good report; as deceivers and [yet] true;

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:9 @ as unknown and [yet] well known; as dying and, behold, we live; as chastened and not killed;

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:10 @ as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, [yet] possessing all things.

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:11 @ O Corinthians, our mouth is opened to you, our heart has been enlarged.

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:12 @ You are not restrained in us, but you are restrained in your own affections.

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:13 @ But for the same reward, (I speak as to children), you also be enlarged.

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:14 @ Do not be unequally yoked together [with] unbelievers; for what fellowship does righteousness [have] with lawlessness? And what partnership does light [have] with darkness?

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:15 @ And what agreement does Christ [have] with Belial? Or what part does a believer [have] with an unbeliever?

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:16 @ And what agreement does a temple of God [have] with idols? For you are the temple of [the] living God, as God has said, I will dwell in them and walk among [them]; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore come out from among them and be separated, says the Lord, and do not touch the unclean [thing]. And I will receive you

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:18 @ and I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says [the] Lord Almighty.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:1 @ Then having these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilements of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:2 @ Make room for us. We wronged no one, we corrupted no one, we overreached no one.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:3 @ I do not speak [this] to condemn you, for I have said before that you are in our hearts for [us] to die together, and to live together.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:4 @ My boldness of speech [is] great toward you; my glorying on your behalf [is] much. I have been filled with comfort, I am overflowing with joy on all our trouble.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For, indeed, coming into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but being troubled in every way, [with] fightings [on the] outside, and fears [on the] inside.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:6 @ But He who comforts the lowly comforted us by the coming of Titus.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:7 @ And not only by his coming, but by the comfort with which he was comforted over you, telling us your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me; so that I rejoiced the more.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:8 @ For even if I grieved you in the letter, I do not regret; if indeed I did regret; for I see that that letter grieved you for an hour.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:9 @ Now I rejoice, not that you were grieved, but that you grieved to repentance. For you were grieved according to God, so that you might suffer loss by nothing in us.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For the grief according to God works repentance to salvation, not to be regretted, but the grief of the world works out death.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For behold this same thing (you being grieved according to God); how much it worked out earnestness in you; but [also] defense; but [also] indignation; but [also] fear; but [also desire; but [also] zeal; but also] vengeance! In everything you approved yourselves to be clear in the matter.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:12 @ Then, though I wrote to you, [it was] not on account of the one who did wrong, nor on account of the one who suffered wrong, but for the sake of revealing our earnestness on your behalf, for you before God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:13 @ Therefore we have been comforted in your comfort, and we rather rejoiced more abundantly over the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if I have boasted anything about you to him, I was not ashamed. But as we spoke all things to you in truth, even so our boasting as to Titus became truth.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his tender feelings are more abundant toward you, remembering the obedience of you all, as you received him with fear and trembling.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:16 @ Therefore I rejoice that I have confidence in you in everything.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:1 @ And, brothers, we make known to you the grace of God which has been given among the churches of Macedonia;

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:2 @ that in much testing of trouble, the overflowing of their joy, and the depth of their poverty, abounded to the riches of their generosity.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:3 @ For I testify [that] according to [their] ability, and beyond their ability; [they] gave willingly;

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:4 @ with much beseeching, begging us [that they might] receive of us the grace and the fellowship of the ministry to the saints.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:5 @ And not as we hoped, but first [they] gave themselves to the Lord, and to us through [the] will of God,

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:6 @ for us to call on Titus, that even as he began before, so he would also complete this grace to you also.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:7 @ But even as you abound in everything, in faith, and in word, and in knowledge, and in all earnestness, and in your love to us; you should abound in this grace also.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I do not speak according to command, but through the eagerness of others, and testing the trueness of your love.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though He was rich, for your sakes He became poor, in order that you might be made rich through His poverty.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And in this I give [my] judgment; for this is profitable for you, who began before, not only to do, but also to be willing a year ago.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:11 @ But now also finish the doing [of it], so that, as [there was] a readiness to will, so also the finishing, [giving] out of [what] you have.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if the eagerness is present, [it is] acceptable according to [what] one has, [and] not according to [what] one does not have.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:13 @ For [it is] not that others may [have] ease, but you trouble;

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but by equality in the present time; your abundance for their need, that their abundance also may be for your need; so that there may be equality;

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:15 @ as it is written, He [gathering] much, he had nothing left over; and he [gathering] little did not have less.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:16 @ But thanks [be] to God, who put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For indeed he accepted the entreaty. But being more earnest, of his own accord he went to you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:18 @ And we have sent with him the brothers whose praise [is] in the gospel throughout all the churches;

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only [so], but also he having been chosen by the churches to travel with us with this gift, which is administered by us to the glory of the Lord Himself, and [as a witness of] your eager mind;

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:20 @ avoiding this, that no man should blame us in this abundance which is administered by us;

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:21 @ providing for honest things, not only before [the] Lord, but also before men.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And we have sent with them our brother whom we have often proved earnest in many things, but now much more earnest by the great confidence which [I have] in you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:23 @ If anyone inquires of Titus, [he is] my partner and fellow-worker for you, or [of] our brothers, [they are] the messengers of the churches, [the] glory of Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:24 @ Therefore show them a proof of your love and of our boasting toward you in the presence of the churches.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:1 @ For indeed regarding the ministry to the saints, it is not necessary for me to write to you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:2 @ For I know your eagerness, of which I boast to Macedonia on your behalf, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal has aroused the greater number.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:3 @ Yet I sent the brothers, lest our boasting (which [is] on your behalf) should not be in vain, that, as I said, you may be ready.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:4 @ [I say this] lest perhaps Macedonians should come with me and find you unprepared. We (not to say you) would then be put to shame in this confident boasting.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:5 @ Therefore I thought [it] necessary to exhort the brothers that they would go forward to you, and make up beforehand your blessing, it having been promised that this would be ready, thus as a matter of] blessing, and not as of covetousness.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:6 @ But [I say] this, He who sows sparingly shall also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully shall also reap bountifully.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:7 @ Each one, as he purposes in his heart, [let him give]; not of grief, or of necessity, for God loves a cheerful giver.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:8 @ And God [is] able to make all grace abound toward you, that in everything, always having all self-sufficiency, you may abound to every good work;

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:9 @ As it is written, He scattered; he has given to the poor; his righteousness remains forever.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:10 @ Now He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for eating, may He supply and multiply your seed, and increase the fruits of your righteousness

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:11 @ you being enriched in everything to all generosity, which works out thanksgiving to God through us.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:12 @ For the ministry of this service not only supplies the things lacking of the saints, but also multiplying through many thanksgivings to God,

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:13 @ through the proof of this ministry [they] glorify God for your freely expressed submission to the gospel of Christ, and the generosity of the fellowship toward them and toward all,

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:14 @ and [in] their prayer for you, who long after you, because of the exceeding grace of God on you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:15 @ Thanks [be] to God for His unspeakable free gift.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:1 @ And I myself, Paul, beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ; I, who indeed to look upon [am] lowly among you, but being absent am bold toward you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:2 @ But I ask, not being present, that I may be bold with the confidence which I think to be daring against some, who thought [of] us as walking according to flesh.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:3 @ For though walking about in flesh, we do not war according to flesh.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:4 @ For the weapons of our warfare [are] not fleshly, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds,

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:5 @ pulling down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought into the obedience of Christ;

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:6 @ and having readiness to avenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:7 @ Do you look at things according to appearance? If anyone has persuaded himself that he [is] Christ's, let him think this again as to himself, that as he [is] Christ's, even so we [are] Christ's.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For even if I also should boast somewhat more fully of our authority (which the Lord has given us for building up, and not for pulling you down) I will not be put to shame;

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:9 @ so that I might not seem to terrify you by letters.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:10 @ For indeed they say, the letters [are] weighty and powerful, but the bodily presence [is] weak, and his speech is contemptible.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:11 @ Let such a one think this, that, such as we [are] in word by letters, being absent, such [we will be] also in deed when we are present.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:12 @ For we do not dare to rank or compare ourselves with some of the ones commending themselves. But they, measuring themselves among themselves, and comparing themselves to themselves, are not perceptive.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:13 @ But we will not boast beyond measure, but according to the measure of the rule which the God of measure distributed to us, to reach even to you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we do not overstretch ourselves as [though] not reaching to you. For we also came to you in the gospel of Christ;

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ not boasting beyond measure in the labors of others, but having hope that the growing faith among you will be increased according to our rule, to overflowing;

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:16 @ to preach the gospel in that beyond you, and not to boast in another's rule in things made ready.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:17 @ But he who glories, let him glory in [the] Lord.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:18 @ For not he who commends himself is approved, but he whom the Lord commends.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:1 @ I would that you were bearing with me a little in foolishness; but indeed bear with me.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:2 @ For I am jealous [over] you with godly jealousy. For I have espoused you to one Man, to present [you as] a pure virgin to Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:3 @ But I fear lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve in his craftiness, so your thoughts should be corrupted from the simplicity due to Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:4 @ For if, indeed, the [one] coming proclaims another Jesus, whom we have not proclaimed, or [if] you receive another spirit, which you did not receive, or another gospel, which you never accepted, you might well endure [these.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:5 @ For I judge [myself] to have come behind the highest apostles [in] nothing.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:6 @ But even if [I am] unskilled in speech, yet not in knowledge; but in every way [I] have been clearly revealed to you in all things.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Or did I commit sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you without charge?

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I stripped other churches, taking wages for the serving of you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And being present with you, and in need, I was not a burden to anyone. For the brothers from Macedonia made up completely my need. And in every way I have kept myself from being burdensome [to you], and I will keep myself.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:10 @ The truth of Christ is in me that this boasting shall not be silenced in me in the regions of Achaia.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:11 @ Why? Because I do not love you? God knows.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:12 @ But what I do, that I will do, so that I may cut off occasion from those who desire occasion; so that in the thing in which they boast, they may be found even as we.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:13 @ For such ones [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:14 @ Did not even Satan marvelously transform himself into an angel of light?

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:15 @ Therefore [it is] no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves as ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:16 @ Again I say, Let no one think me foolish. If otherwise, yet receive me as foolish, so that I may also boast a little.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:17 @ What I speak, I do not speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this boldness of boasting.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:18 @ Since many glory according to the flesh, I also will boast.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:19 @ For you gladly bear with fools, being wise.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:20 @ For you endure if anyone enslaves you, if anyone devours, if anyone takes [from you], if anyone exalts himself, if anyone strikes you in the face.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:21 @ I speak according to dishonor, as though we have been weak. But in whatever anyone dares (I speak foolishly), I also dare.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:22 @ Are they Hebrews? I also! Are they Israelites? I also! Are they the seed of Abraham? I also!

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:23 @ Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as beside myself,) I [am] more! [I have been] in labors more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in prisons more, in deaths many times.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:24 @ Five times from the Jews I received forty [stripes] minus one.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:25 @ Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I was shipwrecked. I have spent a night and a day in the deep.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:26 @ I have been in travels often; in dangers from waters; in dangers from robbers; in dangers from [my] race; in dangers from [the] heathen; in dangers in [the] city; in dangers in [ the] wilderness; in dangers on [the sea; in dangers among false brothers.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:27 @ [I have been] in hardship and toil; often in watchings; in hunger and thirst; often in fastings; in cold and nakedness;

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:28 @ besides the things outside conspiring against me daily, the care of all the churches.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:29 @ Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is caused to stumble, and I do not burn?

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:30 @ If it is right to boast, I will boast [of] the things of my weakness.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:31 @ The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed forever, knows that I do not lie.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:32 @ In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king guarded the city of [the] Damascenes, desiring to lay hold of me.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:33 @ And I was let down in a basket through a window through the wall, and escaped their hands.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:1 @ Indeed, it is not profitable for me to boast. For I will come to visions and revelations of [the] Lord.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:2 @ I know a man in Christ fourteen years before (whether in [the] body, I do not know; or outside of [the] body, I do not know; God knows) such a one [was] caught up to [the] third Heaven.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:3 @ And I know such a man (whether in the body, or outside of the body, I do not know; God knows),

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:4 @ that he was caught up into Paradise and heard unspeakable words, which it is not allowed for a man to utter.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:5 @ I will glory of such a one, yet I will not boast on my behalf, except in my weaknesses.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:6 @ For if I desire to boast, I shall not be foolish. For I will speak the truth. But I spare, lest anyone should think of me as [being] beyond what he sees me, or hears of me;

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:7 @ and by the surpassing revelations, lest I be made haughty, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be made haughty.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:8 @ For this thing I besought the Lord three times, that it might depart from me.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:9 @ And He said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may overshadow me.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:10 @ Therefore I am pleased in weaknesses, in insults, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am powerful.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have become foolish boasting. You compelled me. For I ought to be commended by you. For I lacked nothing of the highest apostles, if even I am nothing.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:12 @ Truly the signs of the apostle were worked out among you in all patience, in miracles and in wonders, and by works of power.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For what is it in which you were inferior to the rest of the churches, except that I myself did not burden you? Forgive me this wrong.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Behold, a third [time] I am ready to come to you. And I will not burden you, for I do not seek your things, but you. For the children ought not to lay up treasure for the parents, but the parents for the children.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:15 @ And I will very gladly spend and be spent for your souls, even if loving you more and more, I am loved [the] less.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:16 @ But let it be so, I did not burden you. But being crafty, I caught you with bait.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:17 @ By any whom I have sent to you, did I overreach you by him?

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I begged Titus and sent with [him] the brother. Did Titus overreach you? Did we not walk in the same spirit? Did we] not walk] in the same steps?

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Again, do you think we are defending ourselves to you? We speak before God in Christ, but [we do] all things, dearly beloved, for your building up.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I fear, lest somehow coming I might not find you as I wish, and [that] I shall be found by you such as you might not wish; lest somehow [there be] strifes, envyings, angers, contentions, backbitings, whisperings, proud thoughts, tumults;

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:21 @ lest in my coming again my God will humble me with you; and I shall mourn many who have already sinned, and not repenting over the uncleanness, and fornication, and lustfulness which they have practiced.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:1 @ I am coming to you this third [time]. In the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be established.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I told you before, and I say beforehand, as being present the second [time] and being absent now. I write to those who sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again, I will not spare.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:3 @ Since you seek a proof of Christ speaking in me (who is not weak toward you, but is powerful in you;

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:4 @ for even if He was crucified out of weakness, yet He lives by [the] power of God. For indeed even we are weak in Him, but we shall live with Him by [the] power of God toward you),

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:5 @ examine yourselves, whether you are in the faith, prove your own selves. Do you not know your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you, unless you are reprobates?

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:6 @ But I trust that you will know that we are not reprobates.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:7 @ But I pray to God [for] you not to do evil, none. And not that we may appear approved, but that you should do the good things, though we are deemed to be reprobates.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:8 @ For we have no power against the truth, but for the truth.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:9 @ For we are glad when we are weak, and you are powerful. But we pray also for this, your perfection.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:10 @ Therefore I write these things while absent, lest being present I may not deal sharply [with you] according to the authority which the Lord gave me for building up, and not for pulling down.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brothers, rejoice. Perfect yourselves; encourage yourselves; mind the same thing; be at peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:12 @ Greet one another with a holy kiss.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:13 @ All the saints greet you.

mkjv@Galatians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle (not from men, nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead),

mkjv@Galatians:1:2 @ and all the brothers with me, to the churches of Galatia.

mkjv@Galatians:1:3 @ Grace [be] to you, and peace from God the Father and from our Lord Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Galatians:1:4 @ who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world according to the will of God and our Father,

mkjv@Galatians:1:5 @ to whom [be] glory forever and ever. Amen.

mkjv@Galatians:1:6 @ I marvel that you so soon are being moved away from Him who called you into [the] grace of Christ, to another gospel,

mkjv@Galatians:1:7 @ which is not another, but some are troubling you, and desiring to pervert the gospel of Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:1:8 @ But even if we or an angel from Heaven preach a gospel to you beside what we preached to you, let him be accursed.

mkjv@Galatians:1:9 @ As we said before, and now I say again, If anyone preaches a gospel to you beside what you have received, let him be accursed.

mkjv@Galatians:1:10 @ For now do I persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I yet pleased men, I would not be a servant of Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:1:11 @ And, brothers, I make known to you the gospel which was preached by me, that it is not according to man.

mkjv@Galatians:1:12 @ For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught [it] except by a revelation of Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you heard my manner of life when [I was] in Judaism, that I persecuted the church of God with surpassing [zeal], and ravaged it.

mkjv@Galatians:1:14 @ And I progressed in Judaism beyond many contemporaries in my race, being much more a zealot of the traditions of my fathers.

mkjv@Galatians:1:15 @ But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and having called [me] by His grace,

mkjv@Galatians:1:16 @ to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the nations, immediately I did not confer with flesh and blood;

mkjv@Galatians:1:17 @ Nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those apostles before me, but I went into Arabia and returned again to Damascus.

mkjv@Galatians:1:18 @ Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.

mkjv@Galatians:1:19 @ But I saw no other of the apostles, except James the Lord's brother.

mkjv@Galatians:1:20 @ And what I write to you, behold, before God, I do not lie.

mkjv@Galatians:1:21 @ Then I went into the regions of Syria and of Cilicia,

mkjv@Galatians:1:22 @ and was unknown by face to the churches of Judea in Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:1:23 @ But only they were hearing that he who then persecuted us, now preaches the faith which he once ravaged.

mkjv@Galatians:1:24 @ And they glorified God in me.

mkjv@Galatians:2:1 @ Then through fourteen years, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with [me] also.

mkjv@Galatians:2:2 @ And I went up by revelation. And I put before them the gospel which I proclaim in the nations, but privately to those [seeming to be] pillars, lest I run, or I ran, into vanity.

mkjv@Galatians:2:3 @ (But not even Titus, the [one] with me, a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.)

mkjv@Galatians:2:4 @ But because of those false brothers stealing in, who stole in to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus; they desiring to enslave us;

mkjv@Galatians:2:5 @ to whom not even for an hour did we yield in subjection, that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

mkjv@Galatians:2:6 @ But from those who seemed to be something (what kind they were then does not matter to me; God does not accept the face of man), for those seeming [important] conferred nothing to me.

mkjv@Galatians:2:7 @ But on the contrary, seeing that I have been entrusted [with] the gospel of the uncircumcision, as Peter to the circumcision;

mkjv@Galatians:2:8 @ for He working in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision also worked in me to the nations.

mkjv@Galatians:2:9 @ and knowing the grace given to me, James, and Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, gave right hands of fellowship to Barnabas and me, that we [go] to the nations, but they to the circumcision.

mkjv@Galatians:2:10 @ Only [they asked] that we remember the poor, which very thing I was eager to do.

mkjv@Galatians:2:11 @ But when Peter came to Antioch, I opposed [him] to his face, because he was to be blamed.

mkjv@Galatians:2:12 @ For before some came from James, he ate with the nations. But when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those of the circumcision.

mkjv@Galatians:2:13 @ And the rest of the Jews also dissembled with him, so as even Barnabas was led away with their dissembling.

mkjv@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they did not walk uprightly with the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter before all, If you, being a Jew, live as a Gentile, and not as the Jews, why do you compel [the] nations to judaize?

mkjv@Galatians:2:15 @ We Jews by nature, and not sinners of the nations,

mkjv@Galatians:2:16 @ knowing that a man is not justified by works of the Law, but through faith [in] Jesus Christ; even we believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith in Christ, and not by works of the Law. For all flesh will not be justified by works of law.

mkjv@Galatians:2:17 @ But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we also were found [to be] sinners, [is] Christ therefore a minister of sin? Let it not be [said]!

mkjv@Galatians:2:18 @ For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I confirm myself [as] a transgressor.

mkjv@Galatians:2:19 @ For through the Law I died to the law, that I might live to God.

mkjv@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ, and I live; [yet] no longer I, but Christ lives in me. And [that] life I now live in the flesh, I live by faith toward the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself on my behalf.

mkjv@Galatians:2:21 @ I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness [is] through law, then Christ died without cause.

mkjv@Galatians:3:1 @ O foolish Galatians, who bewitched you not to obey the truth, to whom before [your] eyes Jesus Christ was written among you crucified?

mkjv@Galatians:3:2 @ This only I would learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by works of [the] law, or by hearing of faith?

mkjv@Galatians:3:3 @ Are you so foolish? Having begun in [the] Spirit, do you now perfect [yourself] in the flesh?

mkjv@Galatians:3:4 @ Did you suffer so many things in vain, if indeed [it is] even in vain?

mkjv@Galatians:3:5 @ Then He supplying the Spirit to you and working powerful works in you, [is it] by works of [the] law, or by hearing of faith?

mkjv@Galatians:3:6 @ Even as Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness.

mkjv@Galatians:3:7 @ Therefore know that those of faith, these are the sons of Abraham.

mkjv@Galatians:3:8 @ And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the nations through faith, preached the gospel before to Abraham, [saying], In you shall all nations be blessed.

mkjv@Galatians:3:9 @ So then those of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

mkjv@Galatians:3:10 @ For as many as are out of works of the Law, these are under a curse; for it is written, Cursed [is] everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the Book of the Law, to do them.

mkjv@Galatians:3:11 @ But that no one is justified by the Law in the sight of God [is] clear, for, The just shall live by faith.

mkjv@Galatians:3:12 @ But the Law is not of faith; but, The man who does these things shall live in them.

mkjv@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, being made a curse for us (for it is written, Cursed [is] everyone having been hanged on a tree);

mkjv@Galatians:3:14 @ so that the blessing of Abraham might be to the nations in Jesus Christ, and that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

mkjv@Galatians:3:15 @ Brothers, I speak according to man, a covenant having been ratified, even [among] mankind, no one sets aside or adds to [it].

mkjv@Galatians:3:16 @ And to Abraham and to his Seed the promises were spoken. It does not say, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to your Seed, which is Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:3:17 @ And I say this, A covenant having been ratified by God in Christ, the Law (coming into being four hundred and thirty years after) does not annul the promise, so as to abolish it.

mkjv@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance [is] of Law, [it is] no more of promise; but God gave [it] to Abraham by way of promise.

mkjv@Galatians:3:19 @ Why then the Law? It was added because of transgressions, until the Seed should come [to those] to whom it had been promised, being ordained through angels in the Mediator's hand.

mkjv@Galatians:3:20 @ But the Mediator is not [a mediator] of one, but God is one.

mkjv@Galatians:3:21 @ [Is] the Law then against the promises of God? Let it not be [said]! For if a law had been given which could have given life, indeed righteousness would have been out of Law.

mkjv@Galatians:3:22 @ But the Scripture shut up all under sin, so that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

mkjv@Galatians:3:23 @ But before faith came, we were kept under Law, having been shut up to the faith about to be revealed.

mkjv@Galatians:3:24 @ So that the Law has become a trainer of us until Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

mkjv@Galatians:3:25 @ But faith coming, we are no longer under a trainer.

mkjv@Galatians:3:26 @ For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Galatians:3:27 @ For as many as were baptized into Christ, you put on Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:3:28 @ There cannot be Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is no male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Galatians:3:29 @ And if you [are] Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise.

mkjv@Galatians:4:1 @ But I say, Over so long a time the heir is an infant, he does not differ from a slave, though being lord of all;

mkjv@Galatians:4:2 @ but he is under guardians and housemasters until the term appointed before by the father.

mkjv@Galatians:4:3 @ Even so we, when we were infants, were in bondage under the elements of the world.

mkjv@Galatians:4:4 @ But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, coming into being out of a woman, having come under Law,

mkjv@Galatians:4:5 @ that He might redeem those under Law, so that we might receive the adoption of sons.

mkjv@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

mkjv@Galatians:4:7 @ So that you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, also an heir of God through Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:4:8 @ But then, indeed, not knowing God, you served as slaves [to] those not by nature being gods.

mkjv@Galatians:4:9 @ But now, knowing God, but rather are known by God, how do you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements to which you again desire to slave anew?

mkjv@Galatians:4:10 @ You observe days and months and times and years.

mkjv@Galatians:4:11 @ I fear [for] you, lest somehow I have labored among you in vain.

mkjv@Galatians:4:12 @ Brothers, I beseech you, be as I [am]; for I [am] as you. You have not injured me at all.

mkjv@Galatians:4:13 @ But you know that through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel to you before,

mkjv@Galatians:4:14 @ and you did not despise my temptation in my flesh, nor did you spurn [it]. But you received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Galatians:4:15 @ What then was your blessedness? For I bear you record that, if you were able, plucking out your eyes, [you] would have given [them] to me.

mkjv@Galatians:4:16 @ So then did I become your enemy speaking to you the truth?

mkjv@Galatians:4:17 @ They are zealous for you, [but] not well. But they [only] desire to shut you out, that you be zealous to them.

mkjv@Galatians:4:18 @ But [it is] good to be zealous always in [a] good [thing], and not only in my being present with you.

mkjv@Galatians:4:19 @ My children, [for] whom I again travail until Christ should be formed in you,

mkjv@Galatians:4:20 @ even now I desired to be present with you, and to change my voice; for I am in doubt [as] to you.

mkjv@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, those desiring to be under Law, do you not hear the Law?

mkjv@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written: Abraham had two sons, the one out of the slave-woman, and one out of the free woman.

mkjv@Galatians:4:23 @ But, indeed, he out of the slave-woman has been born according to flesh, and he out of the free woman through the promise;

mkjv@Galatians:4:24 @ which things are being allegorized; for these are the two covenants, one indeed from Mount Sinai bringing forth to slavery, which is Hagar.

mkjv@Galatians:4:25 @ For Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and answers to Jerusalem which now is, and is in slavery with her children.

mkjv@Galatians:4:26 @ But the Jerusalem [from] above is free, who is the mother of us all.

mkjv@Galatians:4:27 @ For it is written, Rejoice, barren one not bearing; break forth and shout, you not travailing; for more are the children of the desolate than she having the husband.

mkjv@Galatians:4:28 @ But brothers, we, like Isaac, are children of promise.

mkjv@Galatians:4:29 @ But then even as he born according to flesh persecuted him [born] according to the Spirit, so it is] also now.

mkjv@Galatians:4:30 @ But what does the Scripture say? Cast out the slave-woman and her son; for in no way shall the son of the slave-woman inherit with the son of the free woman.

mkjv@Galatians:4:31 @ Then, brothers, we are not children of a slave-woman, but of the free woman.

mkjv@Galatians:5:1 @ Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free, and do not again be held with the yoke of bondage.

mkjv@Galatians:5:2 @ Behold, I, Paul, say to you that if you are circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.

mkjv@Galatians:5:3 @ For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do all the Law,

mkjv@Galatians:5:4 @ you who are justified by Law are deprived of all effect from Christ; you fell from grace.

mkjv@Galatians:5:5 @ For we through [the] Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness out of faith.

mkjv@Galatians:5:6 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any strength, but faith working through love.

mkjv@Galatians:5:7 @ You were running well. Who hindered you [that] you do not obey the truth?

mkjv@Galatians:5:8 @ [This] persuasion [is] not from Him who calls you.

mkjv@Galatians:5:9 @ A little leaven leavens all the lump.

mkjv@Galatians:5:10 @ I have confidence in you in the Lord, that you will think nothing else, but that he troubling you shall bear the judgment, whoever he may be.

mkjv@Galatians:5:11 @ And I, brothers, if I yet proclaim circumcision, why am I still persecuted? Then the offense of the Cross has ceased.

mkjv@Galatians:5:12 @ I wish that those causing you to doubt will cut themselves off.

mkjv@Galatians:5:13 @ For, brothers, you were called to liberty. Only do not [use] the liberty for [an] opening to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

mkjv@Galatians:5:14 @ For all the Law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this, You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

mkjv@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you bite and devour one another, take heed that you are not consumed by one another.

mkjv@Galatians:5:16 @ I say, then, Walk in [the] Spirit and you shall not fulfill [the] lusts of [the] flesh.

mkjv@Galatians:5:17 @ For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh. And these are contrary to one another; lest whatever you may will, these things you do.

mkjv@Galatians:5:18 @ But if you are led by [the] Spirit, you are not under law.

mkjv@Galatians:5:19 @ Now the works of the flesh are clearly revealed, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lustfulness,

mkjv@Galatians:5:20 @ idolatry, sorcery, hatreds, fightings, jealousies, angers, rivalries, divisions, heresies,

mkjv@Galatians:5:21 @ envyings, murders, drunkennesses, revelings, and things like these; of which I tell you before, as I also said before, that they who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Galatians:5:22 @ But the fruit of the Spirit is: love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith,

mkjv@Galatians:5:23 @ meekness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

mkjv@Galatians:5:24 @ But those belonging to Christ have crucified the flesh with [its] passions and lusts.

mkjv@Galatians:5:25 @ If we live in [the] Spirit, let us also walk in [the] Spirit.

mkjv@Galatians:5:26 @ Let us not become glory-seeking, provoking one another, envying one another.

mkjv@Galatians:6:1 @ Brothers, if a man is overtaken in a fault, you the spiritual ones restore such a one in the spirit of meekness, considering yourself, lest you also be tempted.

mkjv@Galatians:6:2 @ Bear one another's burdens, and so you will fulfill the law of Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:6:3 @ For if anyone thinks himself to be something, being nothing, he deceives himself.

mkjv@Galatians:6:4 @ But let each one prove his own work, and then he alone will have a boast in himself, and not in another.

mkjv@Galatians:6:5 @ For each one will bear [his] own load.

mkjv@Galatians:6:6 @ But let him who is taught in the Word share with the [one] teaching in all good things.

mkjv@Galatians:6:7 @ Do not be deceived, God is not mocked. For whatever a man sows, that he also will reap.

mkjv@Galatians:6:8 @ For he sowing to his flesh will reap corruption from the flesh. But he sowing to the Spirit will reap life everlasting from the Spirit.

mkjv@Galatians:6:9 @ But we should not lose heart in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap, if [we] do not faint.

mkjv@Galatians:6:10 @ So then as we have time, let us work good toward all, especially toward those of the household of faith.

mkjv@Galatians:6:11 @ See in what large letters I write to you with my hand.

mkjv@Galatians:6:12 @ As many as desire to look well in [the] flesh, these compel you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:6:13 @ For they themselves, having been circumcised, do not even keep the Law, but they desire you to be circumcised so that they may boast in your flesh.

mkjv@Galatians:6:14 @ But may it never be for me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.

mkjv@Galatians:6:15 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision [has] any strength, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.

mkjv@Galatians:6:16 @ And as many as walk according to this rule, peace and mercy [be] upon them and upon the Israel of God.

mkjv@Galatians:6:17 @ For the rest, let no one give troubles to me, for I bear in my body the brands of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Galatians:6:18 @ Brothers, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit. Amen.

mkjv@Ephesians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are in Ephesus, and faithful in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Ephesians:1:2 @ Grace [be] to you, and peace from God our Father and [from the] Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Ephesians:1:3 @ Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenlies in Christ;

mkjv@Ephesians:1:4 @ according as He chose us in Him before [the] foundation of [the] world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:5 @ having predestined us to the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:6 @ to [the] praise of [the] glory of His grace, in which He has made us accepted in the [One] having been loved.

mkjv@Ephesians:1:7 @ In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:8 @ which He caused to abound toward us in all wisdom and understanding;

mkjv@Ephesians:1:9 @ having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:10 @ for an administration of the fullness of times, to head up all things in Christ, both the things in Heaven, and the things on earth, [even] in Him,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:11 @ in whom also we have been chosen to an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His own will,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:12 @ for us to be to [the] praise of His glory, who previously had trusted in Christ;

mkjv@Ephesians:1:13 @ in whom also you, hearing the word of truth, the gospel of our salvation, in whom also believing, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:14 @ who is the earnest of our inheritance, to [the] redemption of the purchased possession, to [the] praise of His glory.

mkjv@Ephesians:1:15 @ Therefore I also, hearing of your faith in the Lord Jesus and love to all the saints,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:16 @ do not cease giving thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:17 @ that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in [the] knowledge of Him,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:18 @ the eyes of your understanding being enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of His calling, and what is the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:19 @ and what [is] the surpassing greatness of His power toward us, the ones believing according to the working of His mighty strength

mkjv@Ephesians:1:20 @ which He worked [in] Christ in raising Him from [the] dead, and He seated [Him] at His right hand in the heavenlies,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:21 @ far above all principality and authority and power and dominion, and every name being named, not only in this world, but also in the coming age.

mkjv@Ephesians:1:22 @ And He has put all [things] under His feet and gave Him [to be] Head over all [things] to the church,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:23 @ which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:1 @ And He [has made you alive], who were once dead in trespasses and sins,

mkjv@Ephesians:2:2 @ in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience;

mkjv@Ephesians:2:3 @ among whom we also had our way of life in times past, in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the thoughts, and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:4 @ But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love [with] which He loved us

mkjv@Ephesians:2:5 @ (even when we were dead in sins) has made us alive together with Christ (by grace you are saved),

mkjv@Ephesians:2:6 @ and has raised [us] up together and made [us] sit together in the heavenlies in Christ Jesus,

mkjv@Ephesians:2:7 @ so that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in [His] kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:8 @ For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, [it is] the gift of God,

mkjv@Ephesians:2:9 @ not of works, lest anyone should boast.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:10 @ For we are [His] workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore remember that you, the nations, in time past [were] in [the] flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

mkjv@Ephesians:2:12 @ and that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:13 @ But now in Christ Jesus you who were once afar off are made near by the blood of Christ.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:14 @ For He is our peace, He making us both one, and [He] has broken down the middle wall of partition [between us],

mkjv@Ephesians:2:15 @ having abolished in His flesh the enmity (the Law of commandments [contained] in ordinances) so that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, making peace [between them];

mkjv@Ephesians:2:16 @ and so that He might reconcile both to God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity in Himself.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:17 @ And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off, and to those who were near.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:18 @ For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:19 @ Now therefore you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God,

mkjv@Ephesians:2:20 @ and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being [the] chief cornerstone,

mkjv@Ephesians:2:21 @ in whom every building having been fitly framed together, grows into a holy sanctuary in the Lord;

mkjv@Ephesians:2:22 @ in whom you also are built together for a dwelling place of God through [the] Spirit.

mkjv@Ephesians:3:1 @ For this cause, I, Paul, am the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you nations,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:2 @ if you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given to me toward you,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:3 @ that by revelation He made known to me the mystery (as I wrote before in few words,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:4 @ by which, when you read, you may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

mkjv@Ephesians:3:5 @ which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to His holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:6 @ that the nations should be fellow heirs, and of the same body, and partaker of His promise in Christ through the gospel.

mkjv@Ephesians:3:7 @ Of this [gospel] I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given to me by the effectual working of His power.

mkjv@Ephesians:3:8 @ This grace is given to me ( who am] less than the least of all saints) to preach the gospel of the unsearchable riches of Christ among the nations,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:9 @ and to bring to light what [is] the fellowship of the mystery which from eternity has been hidden in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ;

mkjv@Ephesians:3:10 @ so that now to the rulers and powers in the heavenlies might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:11 @ according to the eternal purpose which He purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord;

mkjv@Ephesians:3:12 @ in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through His faith.

mkjv@Ephesians:3:13 @ For this reason I desire that you faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

mkjv@Ephesians:3:14 @ For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:15 @ of whom the whole family in Heaven and earth is named,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:16 @ that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man;

mkjv@Ephesians:3:17 @ that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:18 @ may be able to comprehend with all saints what [is] the breadth and length and depth and height,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:19 @ and to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge, that you might be filled with all the fullness of God.

mkjv@Ephesians:3:20 @ Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:21 @ to Him [be] glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, forever. Amen.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:1 @ I therefore, the prisoner in [the] Lord, beseech you that you walk worthy of the calling with which you are called,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:2 @ with all lowliness and meekness, with long-suffering, forbearing one another in love,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:3 @ endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:4 @ [There is] one body and one Spirit, even as you are called in one hope of your calling,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:5 @ one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:6 @ one God and Father of all, who [is] above all and through all and in you all.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:7 @ But to every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:8 @ Therefore He says, When He ascended up on high, He led captivity captive and gave gifts to men.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:9 @ (Now that He ascended, what is it but that He also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?

mkjv@Ephesians:4:10 @ He who descended is the same also as He who ascended up far above all heavens, that He might fill all things.)

mkjv@Ephesians:4:11 @ And truly He gave some [to be] apostles, and some [to be] prophets, and some [to be] evangelists, and some [to be] pastors and teachers,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:12 @ for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:13 @ And this until we all come into the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full-grown man, to [the] measure of [the] stature of the fullness of Christ;

mkjv@Ephesians:4:14 @ so that we no longer may be infants, tossed to and fro and carried about by every wind of doctrine, in the dishonesty of men, in cunning craftiness, to the wiles of deceit.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:15 @ But that you, speaking the truth in love, may in all things grow up to Him who is the Head, [even] Christ;

mkjv@Ephesians:4:16 @ from whom the whole body, fitted together and compacted by that which every joint supplies, according to [the] effectual working in the measure of each part, producing the growth of the body to the edifying of itself in love.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:17 @ This I say therefore, and testify in [the] Lord, that you should not walk from now on as other nations walk, in [the] vanity of their mind,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:18 @ having the understanding darkened, being alienated [from] the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:19 @ For they, being past feeling, have given themselves up to lust, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:20 @ But you have not so learned Christ,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:21 @ if indeed you have heard Him and were taught by Him, as [the] truth is in Jesus.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:22 @ For you ought to put off the old man (according to your way of living before) who is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:23 @ and be renewed in the spirit of your mind.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:24 @ And you should put on the new man, who according to God [was] created in righteousness and true holiness.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:25 @ Therefore putting away lying, let each man speak truth with his neighbor, for we are members of one another.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:26 @ Be angry, and do not sin. Do not let the sun go down upon your wrath,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:27 @ neither give place to the Devil.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:28 @ Let him who stole steal no more, but rather let him labor, working with [his] hands the thing which [is] good, so that he may have [something] to give to him who needs.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let not any filthy word go out of your mouth, but if any [is] good to building up [in respect of] need, that it may give grace to the ones hearing.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:30 @ And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you are sealed until [the] day of redemption.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:31 @ Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and tumult and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:32 @ And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake has forgiven you.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:1 @ Therefore be followers of God, as dear children.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:2 @ And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us, and has given Himself for us as an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savor.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:3 @ For let fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness not be once named among you, as becomes saints,

mkjv@Ephesians:5:4 @ neither baseness, foolish talking, jesting, which are not becoming, but rather giving of thanks.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:5 @ For you know this, that no fornicator, or unclean person, or covetous [one] (who is an idolater), has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:6 @ Let no man deceive you with vain words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the children of disobedience.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:7 @ Therefore do not be partakers with them.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:8 @ For you were once darkness, but now [you are] light in [the] Lord; walk as children of light

mkjv@Ephesians:5:9 @ (for the fruit of the Spirit [is] in all goodness and righteousness and truth),

mkjv@Ephesians:5:10 @ proving what is acceptable to the Lord.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:11 @ And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove [them].

mkjv@Ephesians:5:12 @ For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:13 @ But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest [is] light.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:14 @ Therefore he says, Awake, sleeping ones! And arise from the dead, and Christ shall give you light.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:15 @ See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,

mkjv@Ephesians:5:16 @ redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:17 @ Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord [is].

mkjv@Ephesians:5:18 @ And do not be drunk with wine, in which is excess, but be filled with the Spirit,

mkjv@Ephesians:5:19 @ speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

mkjv@Ephesians:5:20 @ always giving thanks for all things to God [the] Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Ephesians:5:21 @ submitting yourselves to one another in the fear of God.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:22 @ Wives, submit yourselves to [your] own husbands, as to the Lord.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:23 @ For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ [is] the head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:24 @ Therefore as the church is subject to Christ, so [let] the wives [be] to their own husbands in everything.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:25 @ Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for it,

mkjv@Ephesians:5:26 @ that He might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the Word,

mkjv@Ephesians:5:27 @ that He might present it to Himself [as] the glorious church, without spot or wrinkle or any such things, but that it should be holy and without blemish.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:28 @ So men ought to love their wives as their [own] bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:29 @ For no man ever yet hated his [own] flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord loves the church.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:30 @ For we are members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:31 @ For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the two of them shall be one flesh.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:32 @ This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:33 @ But also let everyone of you in particular so love his wife even as himself, and the wife that she defers to her husband.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:1 @ Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:2 @ Honor your father and mother (which is the first commandment with a promise),

mkjv@Ephesians:6:3 @ so that it may be well with you, and that you may live long on the earth.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:4 @ And fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:5 @ Slaves, obey [your] masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to Christ;

mkjv@Ephesians:6:6 @ not with eye-service, as men-pleasers, but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from [the] heart,

mkjv@Ephesians:6:7 @ with good will doing service as to the Lord and not to men

mkjv@Ephesians:6:8 @ (knowing that whatever good thing he does, he shall receive the same from the Lord, whether [he is] a slave or a freeman).

mkjv@Ephesians:6:9 @ And masters, do the same things to them, forbearing threatening, knowing that your Master also is in Heaven. There is no respect of persons with Him.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:10 @ Finally, my brothers, be strong in [the] Lord and in the power of His might.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:11 @ Put on the whole armor of God so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:12 @ For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the world's rulers, of the darkness of this age, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].

mkjv@Ephesians:6:13 @ Therefore take to yourselves the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:14 @ Therefore stand, having your loins girded about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness

mkjv@Ephesians:6:15 @ and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:16 @ Above all, take the shield of faith, with which you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:17 @ And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God,

mkjv@Ephesians:6:18 @ praying always with all prayer and supplication in [the] Spirit, and watching to this very thing with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:19 @ And pray for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel,

mkjv@Ephesians:6:20 @ for which I am an ambassador in bonds; so that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:21 @ But, so that you also may know my affairs [and] how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in [the] Lord, shall make known to you all things,

mkjv@Ephesians:6:22 @ whom I have sent to you for the same purpose, that you might know our affairs and [that] he might comfort your hearts.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:23 @ Peace to the brothers, and love with faith, from God [the] Father and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:24 @ Grace [be] with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen.

mkjv@Philippians:1:1 @ Paul and Timothy, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and deacons.

mkjv@Philippians:1:2 @ Grace to you, and peace from God our Father and from [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Philippians:1:3 @ I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

mkjv@Philippians:1:4 @ always in every prayer of mine making [my] request for you all with joy

mkjv@Philippians:1:5 @ for your fellowship in the gospel from [the] first day until now;

mkjv@Philippians:1:6 @ being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will perform [it] until the day of Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Philippians:1:7 @ even as it is righteous for me to think this of you all, because you have me in your heart, inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you are all partakers of my grace.

mkjv@Philippians:1:8 @ For God is my witness how greatly I long after you all in [the] bowels of Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Philippians:1:9 @ And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in full knowledge and [in] all perception;

mkjv@Philippians:1:10 @ that you may distinguish [between] things that differ, that you may be sincere and without offense until the day of Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Philippians:1:11 @ being filled [with the] fruits of righteousness through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

mkjv@Philippians:1:12 @ But I desire that you should understand, brothers, that the things [which happened] to me have fallen out rather to [the] furtherance of the gospel;

mkjv@Philippians:1:13 @ so that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other [places].

mkjv@Philippians:1:14 @ And most of the brothers in [the] Lord, becoming confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

mkjv@Philippians:1:15 @ Some indeed even preach Christ because of envy and strife, and some also of good will.

mkjv@Philippians:1:16 @ Those, indeed, preach Christ out of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds.

mkjv@Philippians:1:17 @ But these [others] preach in love, knowing that I am set for the defense of the gospel.

mkjv@Philippians:1:18 @ What then? Nevertheless, in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached. And I rejoice in this. Yet, also I will rejoice.

mkjv@Philippians:1:19 @ For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer and [the] supply of [the] Spirit of Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Philippians:1:20 @ according to my earnest expectation and hope that I shall be ashamed in nothing, but as always now Christ shall be magnified in my body with all boldness, whether it is by life or by death.

mkjv@Philippians:1:21 @ For to me to live [is] Christ, and to die [is] gain.

mkjv@Philippians:1:22 @ But if [I] live in [the] flesh, this [is] the fruit of [my] labor. Yet I do not know what I shall choose.

mkjv@Philippians:1:23 @ For I am pressed together by the two: having a desire to depart and to be with Christ, which is far better.

mkjv@Philippians:1:24 @ But to remain in the flesh [is] more needful for you.

mkjv@Philippians:1:25 @ And having this confidence, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all, for your advancement and joy of faith,

mkjv@Philippians:1:26 @ so that your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.

mkjv@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let your conduct be as becomes the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you, or else am absent, I may hear of your [affairs], that you stand fast in one spirit, striving together with one mind for the faith of the gospel,

mkjv@Philippians:1:28 @ and terrified in nothing by your adversaries. [For this is] to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.

mkjv@Philippians:1:29 @ For to you it is given on behalf of Christ not only to believe on Him, but also to suffer for His sake,

mkjv@Philippians:1:30 @ having the same conflict which you saw in me, and now hear [to be] in me.

mkjv@Philippians:2:1 @ If [there is] therefore any encouragement in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of [the] Spirit, if any tendernesses and mercies,

mkjv@Philippians:2:2 @ then fulfill my joy, that you may be like-minded, having the same love, [being] of one accord and of one mind.

mkjv@Philippians:2:3 @ [Let] nothing [be done] through strife or vainglory, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than themselves.

mkjv@Philippians:2:4 @ Do not let each man look upon his own things, but each man also [on] the things of others.

mkjv@Philippians:2:5 @ For let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,

mkjv@Philippians:2:6 @ who, being in the form of God, thought [it] not robbery to be equal with God,

mkjv@Philippians:2:7 @ but made Himself of no reputation, and took [upon Himself] the form of a servant, and was made in [the] likeness of men.

mkjv@Philippians:2:8 @ And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself [and] became obedient unto death, even [the] death of the cross.

mkjv@Philippians:2:9 @ Therefore God has highly exalted Him, and has given Him a name [which is] above every name,

mkjv@Philippians:2:10 @ that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of heavenly ones, and of earthly ones, and of ones under [the] earth;

mkjv@Philippians:2:11 @ and [that] every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord, to [the] glory of God [the] Father.

mkjv@Philippians:2:12 @ Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, cultivate your own salvation with fear and trembling.

mkjv@Philippians:2:13 @ For it is God who works in you both to will and to do of [His] good pleasure.

mkjv@Philippians:2:14 @ Do all things without murmurings and disputings,

mkjv@Philippians:2:15 @ so that you may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation. Among these you shine as lights in the world,

mkjv@Philippians:2:16 @ holding forth the word of life, so that I may rejoice with you in [the] day of Christ, that I have not run in vain nor labored in vain.

mkjv@Philippians:2:17 @ Yea, and if I am offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy and rejoice with you all.

mkjv@Philippians:2:18 @ And you also rejoice [in] the same, and rejoice with me.

mkjv@Philippians:2:19 @ But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy shortly to you, so that I also may be of good comfort when I know [your state].

mkjv@Philippians:2:20 @ For I have no one who is like-minded, who will naturally care for [your state].

mkjv@Philippians:2:21 @ For all seek their own, not the things which are of Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Philippians:2:22 @ But you know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he has served with me in the gospel.

mkjv@Philippians:2:23 @ Therefore I hope to send him presently, as soon as I shall see the things about me.

mkjv@Philippians:2:24 @ But I trust in [the] Lord that I myself shall also come shortly.

mkjv@Philippians:2:25 @ Yet I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow-worker, and fellow-soldier, but your messenger and he who ministered to my wants.

mkjv@Philippians:2:26 @ For he longed after you all and was full of heaviness, because you had heard that he had been sick.

mkjv@Philippians:2:27 @ For indeed he was sick, coming near death, but God had mercy on him, and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.

mkjv@Philippians:2:28 @ Therefore I sent him the more eagerly, so that you may rejoice when you see him again, and that I may be the less sorrowful.

mkjv@Philippians:2:29 @ Therefore receive him in the Lord with all gladness, and hold such in honor,

mkjv@Philippians:2:30 @ because for the work of Christ he was near death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.

mkjv@Philippians:3:1 @ Finally, my brothers, rejoice in [the] Lord. To write the same things to you is indeed not grievous to me, but for you [it is] safe.

mkjv@Philippians:3:2 @ Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision party.

mkjv@Philippians:3:3 @ For we are the circumcision who worship God in the spirit and rejoice in Christ Jesus and have no confidence in the flesh;

mkjv@Philippians:3:4 @ though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other thinks that he has reason to trust in the flesh, I more.

mkjv@Philippians:3:5 @ I was circumcised [the] eighth day, of [the] stock of Israel, [of the] tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews. As regards the Law, [I was] a Pharisee;

mkjv@Philippians:3:6 @ concerning zeal, persecuting the church; regarding the righteousness in the Law, blameless.

mkjv@Philippians:3:7 @ But whatever things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.

mkjv@Philippians:3:8 @ But no, rather, I also count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them [to be] dung, so that I may win Christ

mkjv@Philippians:3:9 @ and be found in Him; not having my own righteousness, which is of the Law, but through [the] faith of Christ, the righteousness of God by faith,

mkjv@Philippians:3:10 @ that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conformable to His death;

mkjv@Philippians:3:11 @ if by any means I might attain to the resurrection of the dead.

mkjv@Philippians:3:12 @ Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect, but I am pressing on, if I may lay hold of that for which I also was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Philippians:3:13 @ My brothers, I do not count myself to have taken possession, but one [thing I do], forgetting the things behind and reaching forward to the things before,

mkjv@Philippians:3:14 @ I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Philippians:3:15 @ Let us therefore, as many as [are] perfect, be of this mind. And if in anything you are otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this to you.

mkjv@Philippians:3:16 @ Yet, as to what we have already attained, let us walk in the same rule, let us mind the same thing.

mkjv@Philippians:3:17 @ Brothers, be imitators together of me, and mark those who walk this way, for you have us [for] a pattern.

mkjv@Philippians:3:18 @ (For many are walking, of whom I have told you often and now tell you even weeping, [as] the enemies of the cross of Christ;

mkjv@Philippians:3:19 @ whose end [is] destruction, whose god [is their] belly, and [whose] glory [is] in their shame, [those] who mind earthly things.)

mkjv@Philippians:3:20 @ For our citizenship is in Heaven, from which also we are looking for the Savior, [the] Lord Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Philippians:3:21 @ who shall change our body of humiliation so that it may be fashioned like His glorious body, according to the working of His power, even to subdue all things to Himself.

mkjv@Philippians:4:1 @ Therefore, my brothers, ones loved and longed for, my joy and crown, stand fast in this way in [the] Lord, beloved ones.

mkjv@Philippians:4:2 @ I beg Euodia and Syntyche that they be of the same mind in [the] Lord.

mkjv@Philippians:4:3 @ And I also beg you, true yoke-fellow, help those women who labored in the gospel with me and with Clement, and others of my fellow-laborers, whose names [are] in the Book of Life.

mkjv@Philippians:4:4 @ Rejoice in [the] Lord always. Again I say, Rejoice!

mkjv@Philippians:4:5 @ Let your moderation be known to all men. The Lord [is] at hand.

mkjv@Philippians:4:6 @ Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.

mkjv@Philippians:4:7 @ And the peace of God which passes all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Philippians:4:8 @ Finally, my brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things [are] honest, whatever [things are] right, whatever [things are] pure, whatever [things are] lovely, whatever things are] of good report; if there is] any virtue and if [there is] any praise, think on these things.

mkjv@Philippians:4:9 @ Do those things which you have also learned and received and heard and seen in me. And the God of peace shall be with you.

mkjv@Philippians:4:10 @ But I rejoiced in [the] Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me has flourished again. Although you indeed did think, but you lacked opportunity.

mkjv@Philippians:4:11 @ Not that I speak according to need, for I have learned to be content in whatever state I am.

mkjv@Philippians:4:12 @ I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound. In everything and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

mkjv@Philippians:4:13 @ I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

mkjv@Philippians:4:14 @ Yet you did well in sharing my troubles.

mkjv@Philippians:4:15 @ Now you Philippians know also that in [the] beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as regards giving and receiving, except you alone.

mkjv@Philippians:4:16 @ For even in Thessalonica you sent once and again to my necessity.

mkjv@Philippians:4:17 @ I do not say this because I desire a gift, but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.

mkjv@Philippians:4:18 @ But I have all, and abound. I have been filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things [which you sent], an odor of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable and well-pleasing to God.

mkjv@Philippians:4:19 @ But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Philippians:4:20 @ Now unto God and our Father [be] glory forever and ever. Amen.

mkjv@Philippians:4:21 @ Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me greet you.

mkjv@Philippians:4:22 @ All the saints greet you, most of all those who are of Caesar's household.

mkjv@Philippians:4:23 @ May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen.

mkjv@Colossians:1:1 @ Paul, [an] apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy [our] brother,

mkjv@Colossians:1:2 @ to the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colosse. Grace to you, and peace from God our Father and from [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Colossians:1:3 @ We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,

mkjv@Colossians:1:4 @ since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love [you have] to all the saints,

mkjv@Colossians:1:5 @ for the hope which is laid up for you in Heaven, of which you heard before in the Word of the truth of the gospel,

mkjv@Colossians:1:6 @ which has come to you as [it has] also in all the world, and it is bearing fruit, even also among you, since the day you heard and fully knew the grace of God in truth,

mkjv@Colossians:1:7 @ even as you learned from Epaphras our beloved fellow-servant, who is a faithful minister of Christ for you,

mkjv@Colossians:1:8 @ he also having shown your love in [the] Spirit to us.

mkjv@Colossians:1:9 @ For this cause we also, since the day we heard, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that you might be filled [with] the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding,

mkjv@Colossians:1:10 @ that you might walk worthy of the Lord to all pleasing, being fruitful in every work and increasing in the knowledge of God,

mkjv@Colossians:1:11 @ being empowered with all power, according to the might of His glory, to all patience and long-suffering with joyfulness,

mkjv@Colossians:1:12 @ giving thanks to the Father, who has made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light.

mkjv@Colossians:1:13 @ [For He] has delivered us from the power of darkness and has translated [us] into the kingdom of His dear Son;

mkjv@Colossians:1:14 @ in whom we have redemption through His blood, the remission of sins.

mkjv@Colossians:1:15 @ who is [the] image of the invisible God, [the] First-born of all creation.

mkjv@Colossians:1:16 @ For all things were created in Him, the things in the heavens, and the things on the earth, the visible and the invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers, all things were created through Him and for Him.

mkjv@Colossians:1:17 @ And He is before all things, and by Him all things consist.

mkjv@Colossians:1:18 @ And He is [the] Head of the body, the church, who is [the] Beginning, the First-born from the dead, that He may be pre-eminent in all things.

mkjv@Colossians:1:19 @ For it pleased [the Father] that in Him all fullness should dwell.

mkjv@Colossians:1:20 @ And through Him having made peace through the blood of His cross, it pleased the Father to reconcile all things to Himself through Him, whether the things on earth or the things in Heaven.

mkjv@Colossians:1:21 @ And you, who were once alienated and enemies in [your] mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled

mkjv@Colossians:1:22 @ in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish, and without charge in His sight,

mkjv@Colossians:1:23 @ if indeed you continue in the faith grounded and settled, and [are] not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which you have heard [and] which was proclaimed in all the creation under Heaven, of which I, Paul, became a minister,

mkjv@Colossians:1:24 @ who now rejoice in my sufferings on your behalf, and I fill up the things lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh, on behalf of His body, which [is] the church;

mkjv@Colossians:1:25 @ of which I became a minister, according to the administration of God given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God;

mkjv@Colossians:1:26 @ the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints.

mkjv@Colossians:1:27 @ [For to them] God would make known what [are] the riches of the glory of this mystery among the nations, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory,

mkjv@Colossians:1:28 @ whom we preach, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, so that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Colossians:1:29 @ For which I also labor, striving according to the working of Him who works in me in power.

mkjv@Colossians:2:1 @ For I want you to know what a great conflict I have for you and those at Laodicea, and [for] as many as have not seen my face in [the] flesh,

mkjv@Colossians:2:2 @ that their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and to all riches of the full assurance of the understanding, to [the] full knowledge of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;

mkjv@Colossians:2:3 @ in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

mkjv@Colossians:2:4 @ And I say this that not anyone should beguile you with enticing words.

mkjv@Colossians:2:5 @ For though I am absent in the flesh, yet I am with you in the spirit, rejoicing and beholding your order and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.

mkjv@Colossians:2:6 @ Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, [so] walk in Him,

mkjv@Colossians:2:7 @ rooted and built up in Him, and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.

mkjv@Colossians:2:8 @ Beware lest anyone rob you through philosophy and vain deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the elements of the world, and not according to Christ.

mkjv@Colossians:2:9 @ For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.

mkjv@Colossians:2:10 @ And you are complete in Him, who is the Head of all principality and power,

mkjv@Colossians:2:11 @ in whom also you are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ,

mkjv@Colossians:2:12 @ buried with Him in baptism, in whom also you were raised through the faith of the working of God, raising Him from the dead.

mkjv@Colossians:2:13 @ And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses,

mkjv@Colossians:2:14 @ blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and has taken it out of the way, nailing it to the cross.

mkjv@Colossians:2:15 @ Having stripped rulers and authorities, He made a show of them publicly, triumphing [over] them in it.

mkjv@Colossians:2:16 @ Therefore let no one judge you in food or in drink, or in respect of a feast, or of the new moon, or of the sabbaths.

mkjv@Colossians:2:17 @ For these are a shadow of things to come, but the body [is] of Christ.

mkjv@Colossians:2:18 @ Let no one defraud you, delighting in humility and worship of the angels, intruding into things which he has not seen, without a cause [being] vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

mkjv@Colossians:2:19 @ and not holding the Head, from whom all the body, having been supplied through the joints and bands, and having been joined together, will grow with the growth of God.

mkjv@Colossians:2:20 @ If then you died with Christ from the elements of the world, why, as [though] living in [the] world, are you subject to [its] ordinances:

mkjv@Colossians:2:21 @ touch not, taste not, handle not;

mkjv@Colossians:2:22 @ which things are all for corruption in the using, according to the commands and doctrines of men?

mkjv@Colossians:2:23 @ [These] things indeed have a reputation of wisdom in self-imposed worship and humility, and unsparing severity of the] body, not in any honor for the satisfying of the flesh.

mkjv@Colossians:3:1 @ If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is sitting at [the] right hand of God.

mkjv@Colossians:3:2 @ Be mindful of things above, not on things on the earth.

mkjv@Colossians:3:3 @ For you died, and your life has been hidden with Christ in God.

mkjv@Colossians:3:4 @ When Christ our Life [is] revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory.

mkjv@Colossians:3:5 @ Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness (which is idolatry),

mkjv@Colossians:3:6 @ on account of which things' sake the wrath of God is coming on the sons of disobedience,

mkjv@Colossians:3:7 @ among whom you also once walked, when you lived in these.

mkjv@Colossians:3:8 @ But now also put off all [these] things: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, shameful speech out of your mouth.

mkjv@Colossians:3:9 @ Do not lie to one another, having put off the old man with his deeds

mkjv@Colossians:3:10 @ and having put on the new, having been renewed in knowledge according to [the] image of Him who created him,

mkjv@Colossians:3:11 @ where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, foreigner, Scythian, slave [or] freeman, but Christ [is] all things in all.

mkjv@Colossians:3:12 @ Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender feelings of mercy, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, long-suffering,

mkjv@Colossians:3:13 @ forbearing one another and forgiving yourselves, if anyone has a complaint against any. As Christ forgave you, so also you [do].

mkjv@Colossians:3:14 @ And above all these things [put on] love, which is [the] bond of perfectness.

mkjv@Colossians:3:15 @ And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which you also are called in one body, and be thankful.

mkjv@Colossians:3:16 @ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

mkjv@Colossians:3:17 @ And everything, whatever you do in word or deed, [do] all in the name of [the] Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and [the] Father by Him.

mkjv@Colossians:3:18 @ Wives, be subject to [your] own husbands, as is becoming in [the] Lord.

mkjv@Colossians:3:19 @ Husbands, love [your] wives, and do not be bitter against them.

mkjv@Colossians:3:20 @ Children, obey [your] parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing to the Lord.

mkjv@Colossians:3:21 @ Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they be discouraged.

mkjv@Colossians:3:22 @ Slaves, obey [your] masters according to the flesh in all things; not with eye-service, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing God.

mkjv@Colossians:3:23 @ And whatever you do, do [it] heartily, as to the Lord and not to men;

mkjv@Colossians:3:24 @ knowing that from the Lord you shall receive the reward of the inheritance. For you serve [the] Lord Christ.

mkjv@Colossians:3:25 @ But he who does wrong shall receive [justice] for the wrong which he did, and there is no respect of persons.

mkjv@Colossians:4:1 @ Masters, give to [your] slaves what [is] just and equal, knowing that you also have a Master in Heaven.

mkjv@Colossians:4:2 @ Continue in prayer and watch in it with thanksgiving,

mkjv@Colossians:4:3 @ praying together about us also, that God may open to us a door of the Word, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I also have been bound,

mkjv@Colossians:4:4 @ that I may make it clear, as I ought to speak.

mkjv@Colossians:4:5 @ Walk in wisdom toward those on the outside, redeeming the time.

mkjv@Colossians:4:6 @ Let your speech [be] always with grace, having been seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one.

mkjv@Colossians:4:7 @ Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow-servant in [the] Lord, will make known to you all things about me.

mkjv@Colossians:4:8 @ I sent [him] to you for this very purpose, that he might know the things about you, and that he might comfort your hearts,

mkjv@Colossians:4:9 @ along with Onesimus, a faithful and beloved brother, who is [one] of you. They shall make known to you all things here.

mkjv@Colossians:4:10 @ Aristarchus my fellow prisoner greets you, and Mark, the cousin of Barnabas (regarding whom you received commandments; if he comes to you, receive him),

mkjv@Colossians:4:11 @ and [greetings from] Jesus, who is called Justus, those being of the circumcision. These alone [are my] fellow-workers for the kingdom of God, who became a comfort to me.

mkjv@Colossians:4:12 @ Epaphras greets you, he being of you, a servant of Christ, always laboring fervently for you in prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.

mkjv@Colossians:4:13 @ For I bear him record that he has a great zeal for you and for those [who are] in Laodicea and those in Hierapolis.

mkjv@Colossians:4:14 @ Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you.

mkjv@Colossians:4:15 @ Greet the brothers who are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church in his house.

mkjv@Colossians:4:16 @ And when this letter is read before you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans, and that you also read the [letter] of Laodicea.

mkjv@Colossians:4:17 @ And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which you have received in [the] Lord, that you fulfill it.

mkjv@Colossians:4:18 @ The salutation of Paul, by my own hand. Remember my bonds. Grace [be] with you. Amen.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul and Silvanus and Timothy to the church of the] Thessalonians, in God [the] Father and in [the] Lord Jesus Christ. Grace to you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:2 @ We give thanks to God for you always, making mention of you in our prayers,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:3 @ remembering without ceasing your work of faith and labor of love and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:4 @ knowing, beloved brothers, your election of God.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power and in [the] Holy Spirit, and in much assurance, as you know what kind [of men] we were among you for your sake.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, welcoming the word in much affliction, with joy of [the] Holy Spirit,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ so that you were examples to all who believe in Macedonia and Achaia.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For from you the Word of the Lord sounded out, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God has gone out, so that we do not need to speak anything.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For they themselves witness what kind of entrance we had to you, even how you turned from idols to God in order to serve the] living and true God,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:10 @ and to wait for His Son from Heaven (whom He raised from [the] dead), Jesus, who delivered us from the wrath to come.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:1 @ For, my brothers, you yourselves know our coming in to you, that it was not in vain.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ But also suffering before, being insulted in Philippi, as you know, we were bold in our God to speak to you the gospel of God in much agony.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:3 @ For our exhortation [to you was] not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ but as we have been approved by God to be entrusted [with] the gospel, even so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God, who tries our hearts.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For neither at any time did we use flattering words, as you know, nor with pretense of covetousness; God [is] witness.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:6 @ Nor did we seek glory from men, neither from you nor from others, being able to be [so] with heaviness, as apostles of Christ.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:7 @ But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse warmly cherishes her children.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So affectionately longing for you, we were willing to have imparted to you, not only the gospel of God, but also our own souls, because you have become beloved to us.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ For, brothers, you remember our labor and toil. [For] laboring night and day in order not to put a burden on any one of you, we preached the gospel of God to you.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You and God [are] witnesses how holily and justly and blamelessly we were to you who believe,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:11 @ even as you know how we exhorted and comforted and testified to each one of you, as a father to his children,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:12 @ that you should walk worthy of God, who has called you to His kingdom and glory.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ And for this cause we thank God without ceasing, that when you received [the] Word of hearing, of God, you welcomed [it as] the Word of God, not as a word of men, but [as] it is, truly [the] Word of God, which also effectually works in you who believe.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brothers, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus. For you also have suffered these things by [your] own countrymen, even as they also by the Jews;

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:15 @ who both killed the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, also driving us out and they do not please God and [being] contrary to all men,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ forbidding us to speak to the nations that they might be saved, to fill up their sins always; but the wrath has come upon them to [the] uttermost.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But, my brothers, when we were taken away from you for an hour's time (in presence, not in heart), more abundantly we were eager with much desire to see your face.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ Therefore we desired to come to you, truly I, Paul, both once and twice; but Satan hindered us.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what [is] our hope or joy, or crown of rejoicing? [Are] you not even [to be] in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming?

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:20 @ For you are our glory and joy.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:1 @ Therefore when we could no longer endure, we were pleased to be left at Athens alone.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ And we sent Timothy, our brother and minister of God, and our fellow laborer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you and to comfort you concerning your faith,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:3 @ so that no one should be drawn aside by these afflictions. For you yourselves know that we are appointed to them.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For truly, when we were with you, we told you before that we were going to suffer affliction, as it also happened, even you know.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this cause, when I could no longer endure, I also sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter may have tempted you and our labor may have been in vain.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now when Timothy came from you to us and brought us good news [of] your faith and love, and that you have good remembrance of us always, desiring to see us (as we also you),

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ then, my brothers, we were comforted over you, through your faith, even in all our affliction and needs;

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:8 @ for now we live, if you stand fast in [the] Lord.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:9 @ For what thanks can we render to God again for you, for all the joy [with] which we rejoice for your sakes before our God,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ night and day praying exceedingly for [me] to see your face and to perfect the things lacking in your faith?

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ And may God Himself and our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ direct our way to you.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:12 @ And may the Lord make you to increase and abound in love toward one another and toward all, even as we also toward you,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ in order to establish your hearts blameless in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all His saints.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ For the rest, then, my brothers, we beseech you and exhort [you] in [the] Lord Jesus, that, as you have received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, so you would abound more [and more].

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:2 @ For we know what commands we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:3 @ For this is the will of God, your sanctification, for you to abstain from fornication,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:4 @ each one of you to know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honor

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:5 @ (not in the passion of lust, even as the nations who do not know God),

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ not to go beyond and defraud his brother in this matter (because the Lord [is the] avenger concerning all these, as we also have forewarned you and testified).

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:7 @ For God has not called us to uncleanness, but in sanctification.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ Therefore he who despises does not despise man, but God, who also has given us His Holy Spirit.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ But regarding brotherly love, you do not need that I write to you, for you yourselves are taught by God to love one another.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:10 @ And indeed you do it toward all the brothers who are in all Macedonia. But we beseech you, brothers, that you abound more [and more],

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ and that you try earnestly to be quiet and to do [your] own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ so that you may walk becomingly toward those outside, and that you may lack nothing.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ But I would not have you ignorant, brothers, concerning those who are asleep, that you be not grieved, even as others who have no hope.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will also bring with Him all those who have fallen asleep through Jesus.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:15 @ For we say this to you by the Word of [the] Lord, that we who are alive [and] remain until the coming of the Lord shall not go before those who are asleep.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ For the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ shall rise first.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ Then we who are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the] clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. And so we shall ever be with the Lord.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:18 @ Therefore comfort one another with these words.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But of the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that I write to you.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ For you yourselves know accurately that the day of [the] Lord comes like a thief in the night.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ For when they shall say, Peace and safety! Then sudden destruction comes on them, as travail upon a woman with child. And they shall not escape.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:4 @ But you, brothers, are not in darkness, that the Day should overtake you like a thief.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:5 @ You are all the sons of light and the sons of the day. We are not of the night, or of darkness.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:6 @ Therefore let us not sleep as the rest [do], but let us watch and be calm.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:7 @ For those sleeping sleep in the night, and those being drunken are drunken in the night.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But let us, who are of the day, be calm, having put on [the] breastplate of faith and love and [the] hope of salvation [for] a helmet.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:9 @ For God has not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ who died for us, so that whether we watch or sleep we should live together with Him.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:11 @ Therefore comfort one another, and edify one another, even as you also do.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:12 @ And, brothers, we beseech you to know those who labor among you, and are over you in [the] Lord, and who admonish you,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:13 @ and to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. Be at peace among yourselves.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ Now we exhort you, brothers, warn those who are unruly, comfort the faint-hearted, support the weak, be patient toward all.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:15 @ See [that] none gives evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue the good, both towards one another and towards all.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:16 @ Rejoice evermore.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:17 @ Pray without ceasing.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:18 @ In everything give thanks, for this [is the] will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:19 @ Do not quench the Spirit.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:20 @ Do not despise prophesying.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:21 @ Prove all things, hold fast to the good.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:22 @ Abstain from every appearance of evil.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ And may the God of peace Himself sanctify you, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blamelessly at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:24 @ Faithful [is] He who called you, who also will do [it].

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:25 @ Brothers, pray for us.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:26 @ Greet all the brothers with a holy kiss.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:27 @ I charge you by the Lord that this letter be read to all the holy brothers.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:28 @ May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you. Amen.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul and Silvanus and Timothy to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:2 @ Grace to you, and peace from God our Father and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ We are bound to thank God always for you, my brothers, as it is right, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each one of you abounds toward one another;

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ so much so that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God, for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations which you endure.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:5 @ For [this is] a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God for which you also suffer,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ since [it is] a righteous thing with God to repay tribulation to those who trouble you,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ and to give rest with us to you who are troubled, at the revealing of the Lord Jesus from Heaven with the angels of His power,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:8 @ in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God and who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:9 @ who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when He shall come to be glorified in His saints and to be admired in all those who believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that Day.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:11 @ Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of the calling and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and the work of faith with power,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:12 @ that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ Now we beseech you, my brothers, with regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ that you should not be soon shaken [in] mind or troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word or letter, as through us, as [if] the Day of Christ is at hand.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let not anyone deceive you by any means. For [that Day shall not come] unless there first comes a falling away, and the man of sin shall be revealed, the son of perdition,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:4 @ who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, setting himself forth, that he is God.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember that I told you these things when I was still with you?

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:6 @ And now you know what holds back, for him to be revealed in his own time.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:7 @ For the mystery of lawlessness is already working, only he [is] now holding back until it comes out of the] midst.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:8 @ And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the breath of His mouth and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:9 @ whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ and with all deceit of unrighteousness in those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, so that they might be saved.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:11 @ And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ so that all those who do not believe the truth, but delight in unrighteousness, might be condemned.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you, brothers beloved of the Lord, because God has from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of [the] Spirit and belief of [the] truth,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:14 @ to which He called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ Therefore, my brothers, stand fast and hold the teachings which you have been taught, whether by word or by our letter.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:16 @ Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and God, even our Father, who has loved us and has given [us] everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:17 @ comfort your hearts and establish you in every good word and work.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ Finally, my brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have [free] course and be glorified, even as [it] also is] with you.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ And pray that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for all [do] not have] the faith.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:3 @ But the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you and guard [you] from the evil.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:4 @ And we have confidence in [the] Lord regarding you, that you both do and will do the things which we command you.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:5 @ And may the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patience of Christ.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother who walks disorderly, and not after the teaching which he received from us.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For you yourselves know how you ought to follow us. For we did not behave ourselves disorderly among you,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ neither did we eat any man's bread freely, but we worked with labor and travail night and day, so that we might not be heavy on any of you

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ (not because we do not have authority, but to make ourselves an example to you, to imitate us).

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:10 @ For even when we were with you, we commanded you this, that if anyone would not work, neither should he eat.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear that there are some who walk disorderly among you, not working at all, but being busybodies.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:12 @ Now we command and exhort those who are such, by our Lord Jesus Christ, that they work with quietness and eat their own bread.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:13 @ But you, brothers, do not be weary in well doing.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:14 @ And if anyone does not obey our word by this letter, mark that one and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:15 @ Yet do not count [him] as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ And may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace always in every way. The Lord [be] with you all.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:17 @ The greeting of Paul by my own hand which is [the] sign in every letter, so I write.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen.

mkjv@1Timothy:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ according to the command of God our Savior, and of [the] Lord Jesus Christ, our hope,

mkjv@1Timothy:1:2 @ to Timothy, [my] own son in [the] faith. Grace, mercy and peace from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.

mkjv@1Timothy:1:3 @ Even as I begged you to remain at Ephesus, when I was going to Macedonia, that you might charge some that they teach no other doctrine,

mkjv@1Timothy:1:4 @ nor to give heed to fables and endless genealogies (which provide doubts rather than the] nurture of God in faith).

mkjv@1Timothy:1:5 @ But the end of the commandment is love out of a pure heart, and a good conscience, and faith unfeigned,

mkjv@1Timothy:1:6 @ from which some, having swerved, have turned aside to foolish talking,

mkjv@1Timothy:1:7 @ desiring to be teachers of the law, neither understanding what they say nor that which they affirm.

mkjv@1Timothy:1:8 @ But we know that the law [is] good if a man uses it lawfully,

mkjv@1Timothy:1:9 @ knowing this, that the law [is] not made for a righteous one, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

mkjv@1Timothy:1:10 @ for fornicators, for homosexuals, for slave-traders, for liars, for perjurers, and anything else that is contrary to sound doctrine,

mkjv@1Timothy:1:11 @ according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

mkjv@1Timothy:1:12 @ And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who strengthened me, because He counted me faithful, putting [me] into the ministry--

mkjv@1Timothy:1:13 @ the [one] who before was a blasphemer and a persecutor and insolent. But I obtained mercy, because being ignorant, I did [it] in unbelief.

mkjv@1Timothy:1:14 @ [And] the grace of our Lord was exceedingly abundant, with faith and love in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@1Timothy:1:15 @ Faithful [is] the Word and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.

mkjv@1Timothy:1:16 @ But for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth all long-suffering, as a pattern to those being about to believe on Him to life everlasting.

mkjv@1Timothy:1:17 @ Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, [the] only wise God, [be] honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

mkjv@1Timothy:1:18 @ This charge I commit to you, [my] son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before [about] you, in order that you might war a good warfare by them,

mkjv@1Timothy:1:19 @ holding faith and a good conscience, which some have put away and made shipwreck as to faith.

mkjv@1Timothy:1:20 @ Among these are Hymeneus and Alexander, whom I have delivered to Satan so that they may learn not to blaspheme.

mkjv@1Timothy:2:1 @ First of all, then, I exhort [that] supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks be made for all men,

mkjv@1Timothy:2:2 @ for kings and all who are in authority, so that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.

mkjv@1Timothy:2:3 @ For this [is] good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,

mkjv@1Timothy:2:4 @ who will have all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

mkjv@1Timothy:2:5 @ For God [is] one, and [there is] one Mediator of God and of man, [the] Man Christ Jesus,

mkjv@1Timothy:2:6 @ who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

mkjv@1Timothy:2:7 @ To this I am ordained a preacher and an apostle (I speak the truth in Christ, I do not lie), a teacher of [the] nations, in faith and truth.

mkjv@1Timothy:2:8 @ Therefore, I desire that men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

mkjv@1Timothy:2:9 @ In the same way also, I desire that women adorn themselves in decent clothing, with modesty and sensibleness, not [adorned] with braiding, or gold, or pearls, or costly clothing,

mkjv@1Timothy:2:10 @ but with good works, which becomes women professing godliness.

mkjv@1Timothy:2:11 @ Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.

mkjv@1Timothy:2:12 @ But I do not allow a woman to teach, or to exercise authority [over] a man, but to be in silence.

mkjv@1Timothy:2:13 @ For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

mkjv@1Timothy:2:14 @ And Adam was not deceived, but [the] woman being deceived was in the transgression.

mkjv@1Timothy:2:15 @ But she will be kept safe through childbearing, if they continue in faith and love and holiness with sensibleness.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:1 @ Faithful [is] the word: If anyone reaches out to overseership, he desires a good work.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:2 @ Then it behooves the overseer to be without reproach, husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, well-ordered, hospitable, apt at teaching,

mkjv@1Timothy:3:3 @ not a drunkard, not contentious, not greedy of ill gain, but gentle, not quarrelsome, not covetous,

mkjv@1Timothy:3:4 @ ruling his own house well, having children in subjection with all honor.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:5 @ (For if a man does not know to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

mkjv@1Timothy:3:6 @ not a novice, lest being puffed up he may fall into the condemnation of the Devil.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:7 @ But he must also have a good report from those on the outside, lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the Devil.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:8 @ Likewise the deacons [are to be] reverent, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of ill gain,

mkjv@1Timothy:3:9 @ having the mystery of the faith in a pure conscience.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:10 @ And let these also first be tested, then let them minister without reproach.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:11 @ Even so [their] wives are to [be] reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:12 @ Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling [their] children and households well.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:13 @ For they having served well gain a good grade for themselves, and much boldness in the faith, those in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:14 @ I write these things to you, hoping to come to you shortly.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:15 @ But if I should delay, that you may know how you ought to behave in the house of God, which is [the] church of the living God, [the] pillar and foundation of the truth.

mkjv@1Timothy:3:16 @ And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among nations, believed on in [the] world, and received up into glory.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:1 @ But the Spirit expressly says that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and teachings of demons,

mkjv@1Timothy:4:2 @ speaking lies in hypocrisy, being seared in [their] own conscience,

mkjv@1Timothy:4:3 @ forbidding to marry, [saying] to abstain from foods which God has created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:4 @ For every creation of God [is] good, and nothing to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:5 @ For it is sanctified through the Word of God and prayer.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:6 @ Having suggested these things to the brothers, you shall be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and by the good doctrine which you have followed.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:7 @ But refuse profane and old-womanish tales, and exercise yourself to godliness.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:8 @ For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable to all things, having promise of the present life, and of that which is to come.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:9 @ Faithful [is] the Word, and worthy of all acceptance.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:10 @ For to this we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the preserver of all men, especially of those who believe.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:11 @ Command and teach these things.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no one despise your youth, but be an example of the believers, in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:13 @ Until I come, attend to reading, to exhortation, to teaching.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:14 @ Do not neglect the gift in you, which was given you by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the body of elders.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:15 @ Meditate on these things; be in these things in order that your improvement may appear to all.

mkjv@1Timothy:4:16 @ Hold on to yourself and to the doctrine; continue in them, for doing this you shall both save yourself and those who hear you.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:1 @ Do not sharply rebuke an elder, but exhort as a father, [and] the younger ones as brothers,

mkjv@1Timothy:5:2 @ older women as mothers, the younger as sisters in all purity.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:3 @ Honor widows who are widows indeed.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:4 @ But if any widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to be godly to their own house, and give back to [their] forebears what is due them; for that is good and pleasing before God.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:5 @ But she being really a widow, and having been left alone, has set her] hope on God and continues in supplications and prayers night and day.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:6 @ But she who lives in self-pleasure has died while living.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:7 @ And command these things so that they may be blameless.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:8 @ But if anyone does not provide for [his] own, and especially [his] family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an infidel.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:9 @ Do not let a widow be enrolled having become less than sixty years old, [the] wife of one man,

mkjv@1Timothy:5:10 @ well reported of for good works: if she brought up children, if she lodged strangers, if she washed the feet of saints, if she relieved the afflicted, if she followed after every good work.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:11 @ But refuse younger widows, for whenever they grow lustful against Christ, they desire to marry;

mkjv@1Timothy:5:12 @ having guilt because they have cast off the first faith.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:13 @ And with it all they also learn [to be] idle, going around the houses; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things they ought not.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:14 @ Therefore I want the younger ones to marry, bear children, guide the house, giving no occasion to the adversary because of reproach.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:15 @ For some have already turned aside after Satan.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:16 @ If any believing man or believing woman has widows, let them relieve them, and do not let the church be charged, so that it may relieve those who are widows indeed.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:17 @ Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in word and doctrine.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:18 @ For the Scripture says, You shall not muzzle the ox treading out grain, and, The laborer [is] worthy of his reward.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:19 @ Do not receive an accusation against an elder except before two or three witnesses.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:20 @ Those who sin, rebuke before all, so that the rest also may fear.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:21 @ I charge [you] before God and [the] Lord Jesus Christ, and the elect angels, that you guard these things without prejudice, doing nothing by partiality.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:22 @ Do not lay hands quickly on anyone, neither be partaker of [the] sins of others. Keep yourself pure.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:23 @ Drink water no longer, but use a little wine for your stomach's sake, and for your frequent infirmities.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:24 @ Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment. And some they also follow after.

mkjv@1Timothy:5:25 @ Likewise also the good works of some are manifest beforehand, and those who are otherwise cannot be hidden.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:1 @ Let as many slaves as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honor, so that the name and doctrine of God may not be blasphemed.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:2 @ And those who have believing masters, let them not despise [them] because they are brothers. But rather let them serve, because they are faithful and beloved, those of the good service receiving in return. Teach and exhort these things.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:3 @ If anyone teaches otherwise, and does not consent to wholesome words (those of our Lord Jesus Christ), and to the doctrine according to godliness,

mkjv@1Timothy:6:4 @ he is proud, knowing nothing. [He is] sick concerning doubts and arguments, from which comes envy, strife, evil speakings, evil suspicions,

mkjv@1Timothy:6:5 @ meddling, of men whose minds have been corrupted and deprived of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness. Withdraw from such.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:6 @ But godliness with contentment is great gain.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:7 @ For we brought nothing into the world, [and it is] clear that we can carry nothing out.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:8 @ But having food and clothing, we will be content.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:9 @ But they who will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and [into] many foolish and hurtful lusts which plunge men into destruction and perdition.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:10 @ For the love of money is a root of all evils, of which some having lusted after, they were seduced from the faith and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:11 @ But you, O man of God, flee these things and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and meekness.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:12 @ Fight the good fight of faith. Lay hold on eternal life, to which you are also called and have professed a good profession before many witnesses.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:13 @ I charge you before God (who makes all things alive) and [in the sight of] Christ Jesus (who witnessed the good confession to Pontius Pilate),

mkjv@1Timothy:6:14 @ that you keep the commandment without spot and without blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:15 @ For He in His own time will reveal [who is] the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of lords,

mkjv@1Timothy:6:16 @ who alone has immortality, dwelling in light which cannot be approached, whom no one of men have seen, nor can see; to whom be honor and power everlasting. Amen.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:17 @ Charge the rich in this world that they be not high-minded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, He offering to us richly all things to enjoy,

mkjv@1Timothy:6:18 @ that they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to share, to be generous,

mkjv@1Timothy:6:19 @ laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.

mkjv@1Timothy:6:20 @ O Timothy, guard the Deposit, avoiding profane [and] vain babblings, and oppositions of falsely-named science,

mkjv@1Timothy:6:21 @ which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace [be] with you. Amen.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which [is] in Christ Jesus,

mkjv@2Timothy:1:2 @ to Timothy, [my] dearly beloved child. Grace, mercy, peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:3 @ I thank God, whom I serve from [my] forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I remember you in my prayers night and day,

mkjv@2Timothy:1:4 @ greatly desiring to see you, being mindful of your tears, so that I may be filled with joy,

mkjv@2Timothy:1:5 @ taking recollection of the unfeigned faith that is in you, which first dwelt in your grandmother Lois, and in your mother Eunice. And I am persuaded that it is in you also.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:6 @ Therefore I remind you to inflame anew the gift of God, which is in you by the putting on of my hands.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:7 @ For God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:8 @ Therefore you should not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor [of] me His prisoner. But be partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to [the] power of God,

mkjv@2Timothy:1:9 @ who has saved us and called [us] with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given us in Christ Jesus before the eternal times.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:10 @ But it is now having been manifested by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who has made death of no effect, bringing life and immortality to light through the gospel;

mkjv@2Timothy:1:11 @ to which I am appointed a preacher and an apostle and a teacher of the nations.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:12 @ For this cause I also suffer these things; but I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that He is able to guard My deposit unto that Day.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:13 @ Hold fast the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love [which is] in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:14 @ Guard the good Deposit [given] through [the] Holy Spirit indwelling in us.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:15 @ This you know, that all those in Asia have turned away from me, of whom are Phygellus and Hermogenes.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:16 @ May the Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me and was not ashamed [of] my chain.

mkjv@2Timothy:1:17 @ But when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently and found [me].

mkjv@2Timothy:1:18 @ May the Lord grant to him that he may find mercy from [the] Lord in that Day. And in what things he ministered [to me] at Ephesus, you know very well.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:1 @ Therefore, my son, be strong in the grace [that is] in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:2 @ And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit the same to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:3 @ Therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:4 @ No one who wars tangles with the affairs of [this] life, that he may please him who chose [him] to be a soldier.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:5 @ And also if anyone competes, he is not crowned unless he competes lawfully.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:6 @ It is right for the laboring farmer to partake first of the fruits.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:7 @ Consider what I say, and the Lord will give you understanding in all things.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:8 @ Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from [the] dead according to my gospel,

mkjv@2Timothy:2:9 @ in which I suffer ill as an evildoer, [even] to bonds. But the Word of God is not chained.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:10 @ Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:11 @ For faithful is the Word, for if we died with [Him], we shall also live with [Him.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:12 @ If we suffer, we shall also reign with [Him]. If we deny [Him], He also will deny us.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:13 @ If we do not believe [Him], [yet] He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:14 @ Put [them] in memory of these things, charging them before the Lord not to dispute about words to no profit, to the subverting of the hearers.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:15 @ [Study] earnestly to present yourself approved to God, a workman that does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:16 @ But shun profane, vain babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:17 @ And their word will eat like a gangrene; among whom [are] Hymeneus and Philetus,

mkjv@2Timothy:2:18 @ who have erred concerning the truth, saying that the resurrection is already past, and who overthrow the faith of some.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:19 @ Nevertheless the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal: The] Lord knew those who are His. And, Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity!

mkjv@2Timothy:2:20 @ But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:21 @ Therefore if anyone purges himself from these, he shall be a vessel to honor, sanctified and useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:22 @ But flee youthful lusts, and follow righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:23 @ But avoid foolish and unlearned questions, knowing that they give birth to strifes.

mkjv@2Timothy:2:24 @ But the servant of [the] Lord must not strive, but to be gentle to all, apt to teach, patient,

mkjv@2Timothy:2:25 @ in meekness instructing those who oppose, if perhaps God will give them repentance to the acknowledging of [the] truth,

mkjv@2Timothy:2:26 @ and [that] they awake out of the snare of the Devil, having been taken captive by him, so as to do the will of that one.

mkjv@2Timothy:3:1 @ Know this also, that in [the] last days grievous times will be at hand.

mkjv@2Timothy:3:2 @ For men will be self-lovers, money-lovers, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

mkjv@2Timothy:3:3 @ without natural affection, unyielding, false accusers, without self-control, savage, despisers of good,

mkjv@2Timothy:3:4 @ traitors, reckless, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

mkjv@2Timothy:3:5 @ having a form of godliness, but denying the power of it; even turn away from these.

mkjv@2Timothy:3:6 @ For of these are those who creep into houses and lead captive silly women loaded with sins, led away with different kinds of lusts,

mkjv@2Timothy:3:7 @ ever learning and never able to come to the full knowledge of [the] truth.

mkjv@2Timothy:3:8 @ But as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so these also resist the truth, men of corrupt mind, reprobate concerning the faith.

mkjv@2Timothy:3:9 @ But they shall proceed no further. For their foolishness shall be plain to all, as theirs also became.

mkjv@2Timothy:3:10 @ But you have fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, long-suffering, love, patience,

mkjv@2Timothy:3:11 @ persecutions, afflictions, such as happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra. What persecutions I endured! But the Lord delivered me out of all.

mkjv@2Timothy:3:12 @ Yea, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.

mkjv@2Timothy:3:13 @ But evil men and seducers will go forward to worse, deceiving and being deceived.

mkjv@2Timothy:3:14 @ But continue in the things that you have learned and have been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned [them],

mkjv@2Timothy:3:15 @ and that from a babe you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise to salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@2Timothy:3:16 @ All Scripture [is] God-breathed, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,

mkjv@2Timothy:3:17 @ that the man of God may be perfected, thoroughly furnished to every good work.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:1 @ Therefore I solemnly witness before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who is going to judge [the] living and [the] dead according to His appearance and His kingdom,

mkjv@2Timothy:4:2 @ preach the Word, be instant in season and out of season, reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long-suffering and doctrine.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:3 @ For a time will be when they will not endure sound doctrine, but they will heap up teachers to themselves according to their own lusts, tickling the ear.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:4 @ And they will turn away [their] ears from the truth and will be turned to myths.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:5 @ But you watch in all things, endure afflictions, do [the] work of an evangelist, fully carry out your ministry.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:6 @ For I am already being poured out, and the time of my release is here.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:7 @ I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:8 @ Now there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at that Day; and not to me only, but also to all those who love His appearing.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:9 @ Make haste to come to me quickly.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:10 @ For Demas has forsaken me, having loved this present world, and [he] has departed to Thessalonica. Crescens [went] to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:11 @ Only Luke is with me. Take Mark [and] bring [him] with you, for he is profitable to me for [the] ministry.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:12 @ And I sent Tychicus to Ephesus.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:13 @ When you come, bring the cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus, and the books, especially the parchments.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:14 @ Alexander the coppersmith showed many evil things to me. The Lord will give back to him according to his works.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:15 @ You also should beware of [him], for he has greatly withstood our words.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:16 @ At my first answer no one was beside me, but all deserted me. May it not be laid to their charge.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:17 @ But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, that through me the preaching might be fulfilled, and [that] all the nations might hear. And I was delivered out of [the] mouth of the] lion.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:18 @ And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work and will preserve [me] to His heavenly kingdom, to whom [be] glory forever and ever. Amen.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:19 @ Greet Priscilla and Aquila and the household of Onesiphorus.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:20 @ Erastus stayed at Corinth, but Trophimus I left sick at Miletus.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:21 @ Try to come before winter. Eubulus greets you, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brothers.

mkjv@2Timothy:4:22 @ May the Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit. Grace [be] with you. Amen.

mkjv@Titus:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ (according to [the] faith of God's elect, in the acknowledging of [the] truth which is according to godliness

mkjv@Titus:1:7 @ For an overseer must be blameless, as a steward of God, not self-willed, not full of passion, not given to wine, not quarrelsome, not greedy for ill gain;

mkjv@Titus:1:9 @ holding fast the faithful word according to the doctrine, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and to convict the gainsayers.

mkjv@Titus:1:11 @ whose mouth [you] must stop, who subvert whole houses, teaching things not right for the sake of ill gain.

mkjv@Titus:1:12 @ One of them, a prophet of their own, said, Cretans [are] always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.

mkjv@Titus:1:13 @ This witness is true; for which cause convict them sharply, so that they may be sound in the faith,

mkjv@Titus:1:15 @ To the pure all things [are] pure. But to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing [is] pure, but even their mind and conscience is defiled.

mkjv@Titus:1:16 @ They profess that they know God, but in [their] works they deny [Him], being abominable and disobedient and reprobate to every good work.

mkjv@Titus:2:1 @ But you speak [the] things which become sound doctrine:

mkjv@Titus:2:2 @ aged men to be temperate, sensible, discreet, sound in faith, in love, in patience.

mkjv@Titus:2:3 @ Let the aged women likewise [be] in reverent behavior, not slanderers, not enslaved by much wine, teachers of good;

mkjv@Titus:2:4 @ that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,

mkjv@Titus:2:5 @ [to be] discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, subject to [their] own husbands, that the Word of God may not be blasphemed.

mkjv@Titus:2:6 @ Likewise exhort the young men to be discreet;

mkjv@Titus:3:1 @ Put them in mind to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to every good work,

mkjv@Titus:3:2 @ to speak evil of no one, not being quarrelsome, [but] forbearing, showing all meekness to all men.

mkjv@Titus:3:3 @ For we ourselves also were once foolish, disobedient, deceived, slaving for various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, hating one another.

mkjv@Titus:3:4 @ But when the kindness and love of God our Savior toward man appeared,

mkjv@Titus:3:5 @ not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit,

mkjv@Titus:3:6 @ whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior,

mkjv@Titus:3:7 @ that being justified by His grace, we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

mkjv@Titus:3:8 @ Faithful [is] the Word, and as to these things, I desire that you strongly affirm that those believing God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable to men.

mkjv@Titus:3:9 @ But avoid foolish questions and genealogies and contentions, and strivings about the Law, for they are unprofitable and vain.

mkjv@Titus:3:10 @ After the first and second warning, reject a man of heresy,

mkjv@Titus:3:11 @ knowing that he who is such has been perverted, and sins, being self-condemned.

mkjv@Titus:3:12 @ When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, hasten to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have determined to winter there.

mkjv@Titus:3:13 @ Diligently set forward Zenas the lawyer, and Apollos, that nothing may be lacking to them.

mkjv@Titus:3:14 @ And let ours also learn to maintain good works for necessary uses, so that they may not be unfruitful.

mkjv@Titus:3:15 @ All those with me greet you. Greet those who love us in [the] faith. May grace [be] with you all. Amen.

mkjv@Philemon:1:1 @ Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy [our] brother, to Philemon the beloved and fellow laborer,

mkjv@Philemon:1:2 @ and to Apphia the beloved, and to Archippus our fellow soldier, and to the church in your house.

mkjv@Philemon:1:3 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Philemon:1:4 @ I thank my God, making mention of you always in my prayers,

mkjv@Philemon:1:5 @ hearing of your love and faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and toward all the saints,

mkjv@Philemon:1:6 @ that the fellowship of your faith may operate in a full knowledge of every good thing in you in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Philemon:1:7 @ For we have great joy and consolation over your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed by you, brother.

mkjv@Philemon:1:8 @ Therefore, having much boldness in Christ to enjoin you to do the fitting thing;

mkjv@Philemon:1:9 @ rather through love I entreat, being such a one as Paul the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Philemon:1:10 @ I entreat you for my child Onesimus, whom I have fathered in my bonds,

mkjv@Philemon:1:11 @ he who was] once worthless to you, but now useful to you and to me; whom I sent back to you.

mkjv@Philemon:1:12 @ Even receive him, that is, my own heart,

mkjv@Philemon:1:13 @ whom I resolved to retain with myself, so that for you he might have ministered to me in the bonds of the gospel.

mkjv@Philemon:1:14 @ But without your consent I was willing to do nothing, that your good should not be of necessity, but willingly.

mkjv@Philemon:1:15 @ For perhaps because of this he was separated from you for an hour, that you should receive him eternally,

mkjv@Philemon:1:16 @ not now as a slave, but beyond a slave, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much more to you, both in the] flesh and in the] Lord.

mkjv@Philemon:1:17 @ If then you have me as a partner, receive him as me.

mkjv@Philemon:1:18 @ If he has wronged you or owes [you] in anything, put that on my account.

mkjv@Philemon:1:19 @ I, Paul, wrote it] with my own] hand; I will repay, that I do not say to you that you owe even yourself to me also.

mkjv@Philemon:1:20 @ Yes, brother, that I may have your help in the Lord, refresh my heart in the Lord.

mkjv@Philemon:1:21 @ Trusting to your obedience, I wrote to you, knowing that you will do even beyond what I say.

mkjv@Philemon:1:22 @ But at once prepare lodging for me, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be given to you.

mkjv@Philemon:1:23 @ Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you,

mkjv@Philemon:1:24 @ and also Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow-laborers.

mkjv@Philemon:1:25 @ May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit. Amen.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:1 @ God, who at many times and in many ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets,

mkjv@Hebrews:1:2 @ has in these last days spoken to us by His] Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds,

mkjv@Hebrews:1:3 @ who being the shining splendor of [His] glory, and the express image of His essence, and upholding all things by the word of His power, through Himself cleansing of our sins, [He] sat down on [the] right of the Majesty on high,

mkjv@Hebrews:1:4 @ being made so much better than the angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:5 @ For to which of the angels did He say at any time, You are My Son, this day I have begotten You? And again, I will be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son?

mkjv@Hebrews:1:6 @ And again, when He brings in the First-born into the world, He says, And let all [the] angels of God worship Him.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:7 @ And of the angels He says, Who makes His angels spirits and His ministers a flame of fire.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:8 @ But to the Son [He says], Your throne, O God, [is] forever and ever. A scepter of righteousness [is] the scepter of Your kingdom.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:9 @ You have loved righteousness and hated iniquity, therefore God, Your God, has anointed You with the oil of gladness above Your fellows.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:10 @ And, You, Lord, have laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the works of Your hands.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:11 @ They shall perish, but You will remain. And [they] shall all become old as a garment,

mkjv@Hebrews:1:12 @ and as a covering You shall fold them up, and [they] shall be changed. But You are the same, and Your years shall not fail.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:13 @ But to which of the angels, did He say at any time, Sit on My right hand until I make Your enemies Your footstool?

mkjv@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for those who shall be heirs of salvation?

mkjv@Hebrews:2:1 @ Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let [them] slip.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:2 @ For if the word spoken by angels was steadfast, and if every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward,

mkjv@Hebrews:2:3 @ how shall we escape [if] we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by those who heard [Him];

mkjv@Hebrews:2:4 @ God [also] bearing [them] witness, both with signs and wonders, and with different kinds of miracles and gifts [of the] Holy Spirit, according to His own will?

mkjv@Hebrews:2:5 @ For He has not put in subjection to the angels the world to come, of which we speak.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:6 @ But one testified in a certain place, saying, What is man, that You are mindful of him; or the son of man, that You visit him?

mkjv@Hebrews:2:7 @ You have made him a little lower than [the] angels. You crowned him with glory and honor and set him over the works of Your hands.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:8 @ You subjected all things under his feet. For in subjecting all things to Him, He did not leave anything not subjected to Him. But now we do not see all things having been subjected to him.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:9 @ But we see Jesus, who [was] made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor, that He by [the] grace of God should taste death for every [son].

mkjv@Hebrews:2:10 @ For it became Him, for whom [are] all things and by whom [are] all things, in bringing many sons into glory, to perfect the Captain of their salvation through sufferings.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both He who sanctifies and they who are sanctified [are] all of One, for which cause He is not ashamed to call them brothers,

mkjv@Hebrews:2:12 @ saying, I will declare Your name to My brothers; in the midst of the assembly I will sing praise to You.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:13 @ And again, I will put My trust in Him. And again, Behold Me and the children whom God has given Me.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:14 @ Since then the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise partook of the same; that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death (that is, the Devil),

mkjv@Hebrews:2:15 @ and deliver those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:16 @ For truly He did not take [the nature of] angels, but He took hold of [the] seed of Abraham.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:17 @ Therefore in all things it behoved him to be made like [His] brothers, that He might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of [His] people.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:18 @ For in that He Himself has suffered, having been tempted, He is able to rescue those who are being tempted.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:1 @ Therefore, holy brothers, called [to be] partakers of the heavenly [calling], consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus,

mkjv@Hebrews:3:2 @ who was faithful to Him who appointed Him, as Moses also [was faithful] in all his house.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:3 @ For He was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, because he who has built the house has more honor than the house.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:4 @ For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things [is] God.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:5 @ And Moses truly [was] faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken afterward.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:6 @ But Christ [was faithful] as a Son over his own house; whose house we are, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm to the end.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:7 @ Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, Today if you will hear His voice,

mkjv@Hebrews:3:8 @ do not harden your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness,

mkjv@Hebrews:3:9 @ when your fathers tempted Me, proved Me, and saw My works forty years.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:10 @ Therefore I was grieved with that generation and said, They always err in [their] heart, and they have not known My ways.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:11 @ So I swore in My wrath, They shall not enter into My rest.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:12 @ Take heed, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from [the] living God.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:13 @ But exhort one another daily, while it is called today, lest any of you be hardened through [the] deceitfulness of sin.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:14 @ For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to [the] end,

mkjv@Hebrews:3:15 @ while it is said, Today if you will hear His voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:16 @ For some, when they had heard, did provoke; however, not all who came out of Egypt by Moses.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:17 @ But with whom was He grieved forty years? [Was it] not with those who had sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?

mkjv@Hebrews:3:18 @ And to whom did He swear [that they should] not enter into His rest, but to those who did not believe?

mkjv@Hebrews:3:19 @ So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:1 @ Therefore, a promise being left to enter into His rest, let us fear lest any of you should seem to come short of it.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:2 @ For also we have had the gospel preached, as well as them. But the word [preached] did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard [it].

mkjv@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we who have believed do enter into the rest, as He said, I have sworn in My wrath that they should not enter into My rest; although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:4 @ For He spoke in a certain place of the seventh [day] in this way: And God rested the seventh day from all His works.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:5 @ And in this place again, They shall not enter into My rest.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:6 @ Since then it remains that some must enter into it, and since they to whom it was first preached did not enter in because of unbelief,

mkjv@Hebrews:4:7 @ He again marks out a certain day, saying in David, Today, (after so long a time). Even as it is said, Today, if you will hear His voice, harden not your hearts.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:8 @ For if Joshua had given them rest, then He would not afterward have spoken of another day.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:9 @ So then there remains a rest to the people of God.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:10 @ For he who has entered into his rest, he also has ceased from his own works, as God [did] from His.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:11 @ Therefore let us labor to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of unbelief.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:12 @ For the word of God [is] living and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to [the] dividing apart of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:13 @ Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in His sight, but all things [are] naked and opened to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:14 @ Since then we have a great High Priest who has passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast [our] profession.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we do not have a high priest who cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities, but was in all points tempted just as [we are, yet] without sin.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:16 @ Therefore let us come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in the things [pertaining] to God, so that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,

mkjv@Hebrews:5:2 @ who can have compassion on the ignorant and on those who are out of the way. For he himself also is compassed with weakness.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:3 @ And because of this he should, as for the people, so also for himself, offer for sins.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:4 @ And no man takes this honor to himself, but he who is called of God, as Aaron [was].

mkjv@Hebrews:5:5 @ So also Christ did not glorify Himself to be made a high priest, but He who said to Him, You are My Son, today I have begotten You.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:6 @ As He says also in another [place], You [are] a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:7 @ [For Jesus], in the days of His flesh, when He had offered up prayers and supplications with strong cryings and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death, and was heard in that He feared,

mkjv@Hebrews:5:8 @ though being a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:9 @ And being perfected, He became [the] Author of eternal salvation to all those who obey Him,

mkjv@Hebrews:5:10 @ being called by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek;

mkjv@Hebrews:5:11 @ of whom we [have] much to say, and hard to be explained since you are dull of hearing.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:12 @ For indeed because of the time, you ought to be teachers, you have need that one teach you again what [are] the first principles of the oracles of God. And you have become [in] need of milk, and not of solid food.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:13 @ For everyone partaking of milk [is] unskillful [in the] word of righteousness, for he is an infant.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:14 @ But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, [even] those who because of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore, having left the discourse of the beginning of Christ, let us go on to full growth, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:2 @ of [the] baptisms, of doctrine, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:3 @ And this we will do, if God permits.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:4 @ For [it is] impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of [the] Holy Spirit,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:5 @ and have tasted [the] good Word of God and [the] powers of the world to come,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:6 @ and who have fallen away; it is impossible, I say, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify the Son of God afresh to themselves and put [Him] to an open shame.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:7 @ (For the earth which drinks in the rain that comes often upon it, and brings forth plants fit for those by whom it is dressed, receives blessing from God.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:8 @ But [that which] bears thorns and briers [is] rejected and [is] a curse, whose end [is] to be burned.)

mkjv@Hebrews:6:9 @ But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you and things that accompany salvation, though we speak in this way.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God [is] not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:11 @ And we desire that each one of you show the same eagerness to the full assurance of hope to [the] end,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:12 @ that you be not slothful, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:13 @ For when God made promise to Abraham, because He could swear by no greater, [He] swore by Himself,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:14 @ saying, Surely in blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply you.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:15 @ And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:16 @ For men truly swear by the greater, and an oath for confirmation [is] to them an end of all strife.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:17 @ In this way desiring to declare more fully to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, God interposed by an oath,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:18 @ so that by two immutable things, in which [it was] impossible [for] God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before [us],

mkjv@Hebrews:6:19 @ which [hope] we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters into that within the veil,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:20 @ where the Forerunner has entered for us, even] Jesus, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:1 @ For this Melchizedek, king of Salem and priest of the Most High God, met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:2 @ To him Abraham also gave a tenth of all. [He was] first by interpretation king of righteousness, and after that also king of Salem, which is king of peace,

mkjv@Hebrews:7:3 @ without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, [he] remains a priest continually.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:4 @ Now consider how great this man [was], to whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:5 @ And truly they [who are] of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priest, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the Law, that is, from their brothers, though they come out of the loins of Abraham.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:6 @ But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:7 @ And without all contradiction the lesser is blessed by the better.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:8 @ And here men who die receive tithes; but there he [receives them], of whom it is witnessed that he lives.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:9 @ And if I may say so, Levi, also, who receives tithes, paid tithes in Abraham.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:10 @ For he was still in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:11 @ Therefore if perfection were by the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the Law), what further need [was there] that another priest should rise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

mkjv@Hebrews:7:12 @ For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change made in the law also.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:13 @ For He of whom these things are spoken belongs to another tribe, from which no man gave attendance at the altar.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:14 @ For [it is] evident that our Lord sprang out of Judah, of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:15 @ And it is still far more evident, since there arises another priest after the likeness of Melchizedek,

mkjv@Hebrews:7:16 @ who is made, not according to the law of a fleshly commandment, but according to the power of an endless life.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:17 @ For He testifies, You [are] a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:18 @ For truly there] is a putting away of the commandment which went before, because of the weakness and unprofitableness of it.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:19 @ For the Law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope [did], by which we draw near to God.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:20 @ And inasmuch as [He was] not made priest] without an oath

mkjv@Hebrews:7:21 @ (for those priests were made without an oath, but this one was made with an oath by Him who said to Him, The Lord swore and will not repent, You [are] a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek,)

mkjv@Hebrews:7:22 @ by so much was Jesus made a surety of a better covenant.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:23 @ And they truly were many priests, because they were not allowed to continue because of death;

mkjv@Hebrews:7:24 @ but He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:25 @ Therefore He is able also to save to the uttermost those who come unto God by Him, [since He] ever lives to make intercession for them.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:26 @ For such a high priest became us, [who is] holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners and made higher than the heavens,

mkjv@Hebrews:7:27 @ who does not need, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice daily, first for his own [sins] and then for the people's sins. For He did this once for all, when He offered up Himself.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:28 @ For the Law appoints men high priests who have infirmity, but the word of the swearing of an oath, after the Law, [has consecrated] the Son forever, having been perfected.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:1 @ Now the sum of the things which we have spoken [is this]: We have such a High Priest, who has sat down on [the] right of the throne of the Majesty in Heaven,

mkjv@Hebrews:8:2 @ a Minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices. Therefore [it is] necessary that this One have something to offer also.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:4 @ For if indeed He were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are priests who offer gifts according to the Law,

mkjv@Hebrews:8:5 @ who serve the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was warned of God when he was about to make the tabernacle. For, He says See [that] you make all things according to the pattern shown to you in the mountain.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:6 @ But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, by so much He is also the Mediator of a better covenant, which was built upon better promises.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:7 @ For if that first [covenant] had been without fault, [then] no place would have been sought for the] second.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:8 @ For finding fault with them, He said to them, Behold, days are coming, says [the] Lord, and I will make an end on the house of Israel and on the house of Judah; a new covenant shall be,

mkjv@Hebrews:8:9 @ not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day I took hold of their hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, because they did not continue in My covenant, and I did not regard them, says the Lord.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:10 @ For this [is] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws into their mind and write them in their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:11 @ And they shall not each man teach his neighbor, and each man his brother, saying, Know the Lord, for all shall know Me, from the least to the greatest.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:12 @ For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities I will remember no more.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:13 @ In that He says, A new [covenant], He has made the first one old. Now that which decays and becomes old [is] ready to vanish away.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:1 @ Then truly the first [tabernacle] had also ordinances of divine service and an earthly sanctuary.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:2 @ For the first tabernacle was prepared, in which [was] both the lampstand, and the table, and the setting out of the loaves, which is called Holies.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:3 @ And after the second veil [was] a tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies,

mkjv@Hebrews:9:4 @ having a golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid all around with gold, in which [was] the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:5 @ And over it were the cherubs of glory overshadowing the mercy-seat (about which we cannot now speak piece by piece.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:6 @ Now when these things were ordained in this way, the priests always went into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service [of God].

mkjv@Hebrews:9:7 @ But once [in] the year into the second the high priest [goes] alone, not without blood, which he offered for himself and for the errors of the people)

mkjv@Hebrews:9:8 @ the Holy Spirit signifying [by] this [that] the way into the Holiest of all was not yet made manifest while the first tabernacle was still standing.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:9 @ For it [was] a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices that could not make him who did the service perfect as regards the conscience,

mkjv@Hebrews:9:10 @ [which stood] only in meats and drinks, and different kinds of washings and fleshly ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:11 @ But when Christ had become a high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building

mkjv@Hebrews:9:12 @ nor by the blood of goats and calves, but by [His] own blood [He] entered once for all into the Holies, having obtained eternal redemption [for us].

mkjv@Hebrews:9:13 @ For if the blood of bulls and of goats and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean sanctifies to the purifying of the flesh,

mkjv@Hebrews:9:14 @ how much more shall the blood of Christ (who through [the] eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God) purge your conscience from dead works to serve [the] living God?

mkjv@Hebrews:9:15 @ And for this cause He is the Mediator of the new covenant, so that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions [that were] under the first covenant, those who are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where a covenant [is], the death of him covenanting must be offered.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:17 @ For a covenant [is] affirmed over [those] dead, since it never has force when The one covenanting is living.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:18 @ From which we see that neither was the first [covenant] dedicated without blood.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:19 @ For [when] Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the Law, [he] took the blood of calves and of goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,

mkjv@Hebrews:9:20 @ saying, This [is] the blood of the covenant which God has enjoined to you.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:21 @ And likewise he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:22 @ And almost all things are by the law purged with blood, and without shedding of blood is no remission.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:23 @ Therefore [it was] necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified [with] these, but the heavenly things themselves were purified] with better sacrifices than these.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ has not entered into the [Holy of] Holies made with hands, [which are] the figures of the true, but into Heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:25 @ Nor yet that He should offer Himself often, even as the high priest enters into the [Holy of] Holies every year with the blood of others

mkjv@Hebrews:9:26 @ (for then He must have suffered often since [the] foundation of the world), but now once in the end of the world He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:27 @ And as it is appointed to men once to die, but after this the judgment,

mkjv@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ was once offered to bear [the] sins of many. And to those who look for Him He shall appear the second [time] without sin to salvation.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:1 @ For the Law which has a shadow of good things to come, not the very image of the things, [appearing] year by year with the same sacrifices, which they offer continually, they are never able to perfect those drawing near.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:2 @ For then would they not have ceased to be offered? Because the worshipers, when they had been once for all purged, would have had no more conscience of sin.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:3 @ But in those [sacrifices there is] a remembrance again of sins every year.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:4 @ For [it is] not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:5 @ Therefore when He comes into the world, He says, Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but You have prepared a body for Me.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:6 @ In burnt offerings and [sacrifices] for sin You have had no pleasure.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:7 @ Then I said, Lo, I come ( in the] volume of the Book it is written of Me) to do Your will, O God.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:8 @ Above, when He said, Sacrifice and offering, and burnt offerings and [offering] for sin You did not desire, neither did You have pleasure in them (which are offered according to the Law),

mkjv@Hebrews:10:9 @ then He said, Lo, I come to do Your will, O God. He takes away the first so that He may establish the second.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:10 @ By this will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:11 @ And indeed every priest stands daily ministering and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:12 @ But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down [on the] right of God,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:13 @ from then on expecting until His enemies are made His footstool.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:14 @ For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are sanctified.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:15 @ The Holy Spirit also is a witness to us; for after He had said before,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:16 @ This [is] the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord; I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:17 @ also [He adds, their sins and their iniquities I will remember no more.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:18 @ Now where remission of these [is, there is] no more offering for sin.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:19 @ Therefore, brothers, having boldness to enter into the [Holy of] Holies by the blood of Jesus,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:20 @ by a new and living way which He has consecrated for us through the veil, that is to say, His flesh;

mkjv@Hebrews:10:21 @ and [having] a High Priest over the house of God,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:22 @ let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and [our] bodies having been washed with pure water.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:23 @ Let us hold fast the profession of [our] faith without wavering (for He is faithful who promised),

mkjv@Hebrews:10:24 @ and let us consider one another to provoke to love and to good works,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:25 @ not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some [is], but exhorting [one another], and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:26 @ For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sins,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:27 @ but a certain fearful looking for judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:28 @ He who despised Moses' law died without mercy on [the word of] two or three witnesses.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:29 @ Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy of punishment, the [one] who has trampled the Son of God, and who has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

mkjv@Hebrews:10:30 @ For we know Him who has said, Vengeance [belongs] to Me, I will repay, says [the] Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge His people.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:31 @ [It is] a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:32 @ But call to memory the former days, in which (after you were illuminated) you endured a great fight of afflictions,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:33 @ indeed being exposed both by reproaches and afflictions, and while you became companions of those who lived so.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you both sympathized with my bonds and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that you have in Heaven a better and an enduring substance.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:35 @ Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great [recompense of] reward.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:36 @ For you have need of patience, so that after you have done the will of God you might receive the promise.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:37 @ For yet a little while, and He who shall come will come and will not delay.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:38 @ Now, the Just shall live by faith. But if he draws back, My soul shall have no pleasure in him.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not of those] withdrawing to destruction, but of those who believe to [the] preserving of [the] soul.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:1 @ Now faith is [the] substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:2 @ For by it the elders obtained a good report.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:3 @ By faith we understand that] the ages were] framed by a word of God, so that the things being seen not to have come into being out of the things that appear.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness [that he] was righteous, God testifying of his gifts. And by it he, being dead, yet speaks.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:5 @ By faith Enoch was translated [so as] not to see death, and he was not found, because God had translated him; for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:6 @ But without faith [it is] impossible to please [Him], for he who comes to God must believe that He is and [that] He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:7 @ By faith Noah, having been warned by God of things not yet seen, moved with fear, prepared an ark to [the] saving of his house, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness [which is] according to faith.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:8 @ By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out into a place which he was afterward going to receive for an inheritance. And [he] went out, not knowing where he went.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:9 @ By faith he lived in the land of promise as a stranger, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs of the same promise with him.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:10 @ For he looked for a city which has foundations, whose builder and maker [is] God.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:11 @ By faith also Sarah herself received strength to conceive seed and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged Him who had promised [to be] faithful.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:12 @ Because of this came into being [from] one, and that of one] having died, even as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as innumerable as the sand which is by the seashore.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:13 @ These all died by way of faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off. And they were persuaded of [them] and embraced [them] and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:14 @ For they who say such things declare plainly that they seek a fatherland.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:15 @ And truly, if they had been mindful of that [country] from which they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:16 @ But now they stretch forth to a better [fatherland], that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:17 @ By faith Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. And he who had received the promises offered up his only-begotten [son],

mkjv@Hebrews:11:18 @ of whom it was said that in Isaac your Seed shall be called,

mkjv@Hebrews:11:19 @ concluding that God [was] able to raise him up, even from [the] dead, from where he even received him, in a figure.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:20 @ By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:21 @ By faith Jacob, [when he was] dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph and worshiped, [leaning] upon the top of his staff.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith, Joseph dying remembered concerning the Exodus of the sons of Israel and gave orders concerning his bones.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:23 @ By faith Moses, having been born, was hidden three months by his parents, because they saw [he was] a beautiful child. And they were not afraid of the king's commandments.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:24 @ Having become great, Moses by faith refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,

mkjv@Hebrews:11:25 @ choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time,

mkjv@Hebrews:11:26 @ esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt, for he was looking to the reward.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:27 @ By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king, for he endured as seeing Him who is invisible.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:28 @ Through faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, lest He who destroyed the first-born should touch them.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith they passed through the Red Sea as by dry [land], which the Egyptians attempting to do were drowned.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:30 @ By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they had been compassed seven days.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:31 @ By faith the harlot Rahab did not perish with those who did not believe, when she had received the spies with peace.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:32 @ And what more shall I say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gideon and Barak and Samson and Jephthah; also David, and Samuel and the prophets,

mkjv@Hebrews:11:33 @ who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped [the] mouths of lions,

mkjv@Hebrews:11:34 @ quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the strangers.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women received their dead raised to life again, and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:36 @ And others had trial of [cruel] mockings and scourgings; yes, more, of bonds and imprisonments.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:37 @ They were stoned, they were sawed in two, were tempted, were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:38 @ The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains and dens and caves of the earth.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:39 @ And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, did not receive the promise,

mkjv@Hebrews:11:40 @ for God had provided some better thing for us, that they should not be made perfect without us.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:1 @ Therefore since we also are surrounded with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily besets [us], and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

mkjv@Hebrews:12:2 @ looking to Jesus the Author and Finisher of [our] faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured [the] cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right of the throne of God.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:3 @ For consider Him who endured such contradiction of sinners against Himself, lest you be weary and faint in your minds.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:4 @ You have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:5 @ And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons, My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when you are rebuked by Him;

mkjv@Hebrews:12:6 @ for whom the Lord loves He chastens, and He scourges every son whom He receives.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:7 @ If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons, for what son is he whom the father does not chasten?

mkjv@Hebrews:12:8 @ But if you are without chastisement, of which all are partakers, then you are bastards and not sons.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:9 @ Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh who corrected [us], and we gave [them] reverence. Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?

mkjv@Hebrews:12:10 @ For truly they chastened [us] for a few days according to their own pleasure, but He for our profit, that [we] might be partakers of His holiness.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:11 @ Now chastening for the present does not seem to be joyous, but grievous. Nevertheless afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who are exercised by it.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:12 @ Because of this, straighten up the hands which hang down and the enfeebled knees.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:13 @ And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way, but let it rather be healed.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:14 @ Follow peace with all, and holiness, without which no one shall see the Lord;

mkjv@Hebrews:12:15 @ looking diligently lest any fail of the grace of God, or lest any root of bitterness springing up disturb [you], and by it many are defiled,

mkjv@Hebrews:12:16 @ (lest there [be] any fornicator, or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:17 @ For you know that afterward, when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected; for he did not find any place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears).

mkjv@Hebrews:12:18 @ For you have not come to the mountain that might be touched and that burned with fire, nor to blackness and darkness and tempest,

mkjv@Hebrews:12:19 @ and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words (which [voice] they who heard begged that a word should not be spoken to them any more,

mkjv@Hebrews:12:20 @ for they could not endure the thing commanded, And if so much as a beast should touch the mountain, it shall be stoned or thrust through with a dart,

mkjv@Hebrews:12:21 @ and so fearful was the sight [that] Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake).

mkjv@Hebrews:12:22 @ But you have come to Mount Zion and to [the] city of [the] living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,

mkjv@Hebrews:12:23 @ to the [general] assembly and church of the first-born who are written in Heaven, and to God [the] judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

mkjv@Hebrews:12:24 @ and to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than [that of] Abel.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:25 @ See [that] you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape, those who refused him that spoke on earth, much more we [shall not escape] if we turn away from Him who speaks from Heaven,

mkjv@Hebrews:12:26 @ whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, Yet once more I will not only shake the earth, but also the heavens.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:27 @ And this [word], Yet once more, signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, so that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:28 @ Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear,

mkjv@Hebrews:12:29 @ for also, Our God [is] a consuming fire.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:1 @ Let brotherly love continue.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:2 @ Do not be forgetful of hospitality, for by this some have entertained angels without knowing it.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:3 @ Remember those who are in bonds, as bound with [them], those who suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:4 @ Marriage [is] honorable in all, and the bed undefiled, but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:5 @ [Let your] way of life [be] without the love of money, [and be] content with such things as you have, for He has said, Not at all will I leave you, not at all will I forsake you, never!

mkjv@Hebrews:13:6 @ so that we may boldly say, The] Lord [is] my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do to me.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember those leading you, who have spoken to you the Word of God, whose faith follow, considering the end of [their] conduct:

mkjv@Hebrews:13:8 @ Jesus Christ the same yesterday and today and forever.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:9 @ Do not be carried about with different and strange doctrines, for [it is] good for the heart to be established with grace, not with foods, in which those who have walked [in them] were not helped.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:10 @ We have an altar of which they have no right to eat, those who serve the tabernacle.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:11 @ For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the [Holy of] Holies by the high priest for sin, are burned outside the camp.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:12 @ Therefore Jesus also, so that He might sanctify the people through His own blood, suffered outside the gate.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:13 @ Therefore let us go forth to Him outside the camp, bearing His reproach.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:14 @ For here we have no continuing city, but we seek one to come.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:15 @ By Him, then, let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, [the] fruit of [our] lips, confessing His name.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:16 @ But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:17 @ Yield to those leading you, and be submissive, for they watch for your souls, [as those who must] give account, that they may do it with joy and not with grief; for that [is] unprofitable for you.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:18 @ Pray for us; for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:19 @ But I beseech [you] the rather to do this, so that I may be more quickly restored to you.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:20 @ Now may the God of peace (who brought again our Lord Jesus from [the] dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through [the] blood of the everlasting covenant)

mkjv@Hebrews:13:21 @ make you perfect in every good work to do His will, working in you that [which] is well pleasing in His sight through Jesus Christ, to whom [be] glory forever and ever. Amen.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:22 @ And I beseech you, brothers, allow the word of exhortation. For I have written a letter to you in few words.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:23 @ Know that [our] brother Timothy has been set at liberty, with whom, if he comes shortly, I will see you.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:24 @ Greet all those leading you, and all the saints. Those from Italy greet you.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:25 @ Grace [be] with you all. Amen.

mkjv@James:1:1 @ James, a servant of God and of [the] Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes in the Dispersion, greeting:

mkjv@James:1:2 @ My brothers, count [it] all joy when you fall into different kinds of temptations,

mkjv@James:1:3 @ knowing that the trying of your faith works patience.

mkjv@James:1:4 @ But let patience have its perfect work, so that you may be perfect and entire, lacking nothing.

mkjv@James:1:5 @ But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, [who] gives to all liberally and with no reproach, and it shall be given to him.

mkjv@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, doubting nothing. For he who doubts is like a wave of [the] sea, driven by the wind and tossed.

mkjv@James:1:7 @ For do not let that man think that he shall receive anything from the Lord;

mkjv@James:1:8 @ [he is] a double-minded man, not dependable in all his ways.

mkjv@James:1:9 @ But let [the] humble brother rejoice in his exaltation;

mkjv@James:1:10 @ and the rich one [rejoice] in his humiliation, because he shall pass away as the flower of the grass.

mkjv@James:1:11 @ For the sun rose with the hot wind and dried up the grass, and its flower fell out, and the beauty of its appearance perished; so also the rich one will fade away in his ways.

mkjv@James:1:12 @ Blessed [is] the man who endures temptation, because having been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

mkjv@James:1:13 @ Let no one being tempted say, I am tempted from God. For God is not tempted by evils, and He tempts no one.

mkjv@James:1:14 @ But each one is tempted by his lusts, being drawn away and seduced [by them].

mkjv@James:1:15 @ Then when lust has conceived, [it] brings forth sin. And sin, when it is fully formed, brings forth death.

mkjv@James:1:16 @ Do not err, my beloved brothers.

mkjv@James:1:17 @ Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness nor shadow of turning.

mkjv@James:1:18 @ Of [His own] will He brought us forth with [the] Word of truth, for us to be a certain firstfruit of His creatures.

mkjv@James:1:19 @ Therefore, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.

mkjv@James:1:20 @ For the wrath of man does not work out [the] righteousness of God.

mkjv@James:1:21 @ Therefore putting aside all filthiness and overflowing of evil, receive in meekness the implanted Word, which is able to save your souls.

mkjv@James:1:22 @ But become doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

mkjv@James:1:23 @ For if anyone is a hearer of [the] Word and not a doer, he is like a man studying his natural face in a mirror.

mkjv@James:1:24 @ For he studied himself and went his way, and immediately [he] forgot what he was like.

mkjv@James:1:25 @ But whoever looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues [in it], he is not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of [the] work. This one shall be blessed in his doing.

mkjv@James:1:26 @ If anyone thinks to be religious among you, [yet] does not bridle his tongue, but deceives his own heart, this one's religion [is] vain.

mkjv@James:1:27 @ Pure religion and undefiled before God and [the] Father [is] this, to visit orphans and widows in their afflictions, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.

mkjv@James:2:1 @ My brothers, do not have the faith of our Lord Christ, [the Lord] of glory, with respecter of faces.

mkjv@James:2:2 @ For if there comes a gold-fingered man in fancy clothing into your assembly, and if there also comes in a poor man in shabby clothing,

mkjv@James:2:3 @ and if you have respect to him who has the fancy clothing and say to him, You sit here in a good place, and say to the poor, You stand there, or sit here under my footstool;

mkjv@James:2:4 @ Did you not make a difference among yourselves and became judges [with] evil thoughts?

mkjv@James:2:5 @ Listen, my beloved brothers, has not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He has promised to those who love Him?

mkjv@James:2:6 @ But you dishonored the poor one. Do not rich men oppress you and draw you before the judgment seats?

mkjv@James:2:7 @ Do they not blaspheme that worthy Name by which you are called?

mkjv@James:2:8 @ If you fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, You shall love your neighbor as yourself, you do well.

mkjv@James:2:9 @ But if you have respect to persons, you commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

mkjv@James:2:10 @ For whoever shall keep the whole law and yet offend in one [point], he is guilty of all.

mkjv@James:2:11 @ For He who said, Do not commit adultery, also said, Do not murder. But if you do not commit adultery, yet if you murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

mkjv@James:2:12 @ So speak and do as those who shall be judged by [the] law of liberty.

mkjv@James:2:13 @ For he who has shown no mercy shall have judgment without mercy, and mercy exults over judgment.

mkjv@James:2:14 @ My brothers, what profit [is it] if a man says he has faith and does not have works? Can faith save him?

mkjv@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food,

mkjv@James:2:16 @ and if one of you says to them, Go in peace, be warmed and filled, but you do not give them those things which are needful to the body, what good [is it]?

mkjv@James:2:17 @ Even so, if it does not have works, faith is dead, being by itself.

mkjv@James:2:18 @ But someone will say, You have faith, and I have works. Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith from my works.

mkjv@James:2:19 @ You believe that there is one God, you do well; even the demons believe and tremble.

mkjv@James:2:20 @ But will you know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?

mkjv@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?

mkjv@James:2:22 @ Do you see how faith worked with his works, and from the works faith was made complete?

mkjv@James:2:23 @ And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness, and he was called the friend of God.

mkjv@James:2:24 @ You see then how a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

mkjv@James:2:25 @ And in the same way, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she had received the messengers and had [sent] them out another way?

mkjv@James:2:26 @ For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

mkjv@James:3:1 @ My brothers, do not be many teachers, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.

mkjv@James:3:2 @ For [in] many [things] we all offend. If anyone does not offend in word, the same [is] a full-grown man, able also to bridle the whole body.

mkjv@James:3:3 @ Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, so that they may obey us, and we turn about their whole body.

mkjv@James:3:4 @ Behold also the ships being so great, and driven by fierce winds, yet they are turned about with a very small rudder, where the impulse of him steering desires.

mkjv@James:3:5 @ Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. Behold how little a fire kindles how large a forest!

mkjv@James:3:6 @ And the tongue [is] a fire, a world of iniquity. So the tongue is set among our members, spotting all the body and inflaming the course of nature, and being inflamed by hell.

mkjv@James:3:7 @ For every kind of animals, and of birds, and of reptiles, and of sea-animals, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind.

mkjv@James:3:8 @ But no one can tame the tongue, [it is] an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

mkjv@James:3:9 @ By this we bless God, even [the] Father. And by this we curse men, who have come into being according to the image of God.

mkjv@James:3:10 @ Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.

mkjv@James:3:11 @ Does a fountain send forth at the same hole the sweet and the bitter?

mkjv@James:3:12 @ Can the fig tree, my brothers, bear olive berries; or a vine, figs? So no fountain [can] yield both salt water and fresh.

mkjv@James:3:13 @ Who [is] wise and knowing among you? Let him show his works by [his] good conduct with meekness of wisdom.

mkjv@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter jealousy and strife in your hearts, do not glory and lie against the truth.

mkjv@James:3:15 @ This is not the wisdom coming down from above, but [is] earthly, sensual, devilish.

mkjv@James:3:16 @ For where envying and strife [are], there [is] confusion and every foul deed.

mkjv@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom that is from above is first truly pure, then peaceable, gentle, easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

mkjv@James:3:18 @ And [the] fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

mkjv@James:4:1 @ From where do wars and fightings among you [come]? [Is it] not from this, from your lusts which war in your members?

mkjv@James:4:2 @ You desire, and do not have. You murder, and are jealous, and cannot obtain. You fight and war, yet you have not because you ask not.

mkjv@James:4:3 @ You ask and receive not, because you ask amiss, that you may spend [it] upon your lusts.

mkjv@James:4:4 @ Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity [with] God? Therefore whoever desires to be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

mkjv@James:4:5 @ Do you think that the Scripture says in vain, The spirit that dwells in us yearns to envy?

mkjv@James:4:6 @ But He gives more grace. Therefore He says, God resists the proud, but He gives grace to the humble.

mkjv@James:4:7 @ Therefore submit yourselves to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

mkjv@James:4:8 @ Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse [your] hands, sinners; and purify your hearts, double-minded ones.

mkjv@James:4:9 @ Be afflicted, and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and [your] joy to heaviness.

mkjv@James:4:10 @ Be humbled before the Lord, and He will lift you up.

mkjv@James:4:11 @ Do not speak against one another, brothers. He who speaks against [his] brother, and who judges his brother, speaks against the Law and judges the Law. But if you judge the Law, you are not a doer of the Law, but a judge.

mkjv@James:4:12 @ There is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you who judges another?

mkjv@James:4:13 @ Come now, those saying, Today or tomorrow we will go into such a city and spend a year there, and we will trade and will make a profit,

mkjv@James:4:14 @ who do not know of the morrow. For what [is] your life? For it is a vapor, which appears for a little time, and then disappears.

mkjv@James:4:15 @ Instead of you saying, If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.

mkjv@James:4:16 @ But now you boast in your presumptions. All such boasting is evil.

mkjv@James:4:17 @ Therefore to him who knows to do good, and does not do [it], to him it is sin.

mkjv@James:5:1 @ Come now, rich ones, weep and howl for your hardships coming on.

mkjv@James:5:2 @ Your riches have rotted, and your clothes have become moth-eaten.

mkjv@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver have corroded, and their poison will be a witness against you, and will eat your flesh as fire. You heaped treasure in the last days.

mkjv@James:5:4 @ Behold, the hire of the laborers reaping your fields cry out, being kept back by you. And the cries of those who have reaped have entered into the ears of [the] Lord of hosts.

mkjv@James:5:5 @ You have lived luxuriously on the earth, and lived wantonly. You have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

mkjv@James:5:6 @ You have condemned [and] murdered the just; he does not resist you.

mkjv@James:5:7 @ Therefore be patient, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth and has long patience for it, until he receives [the] early and the latter rain.

mkjv@James:5:8 @ You also be patient, establish your hearts, for the coming of your Lord draws near.

mkjv@James:5:9 @ Do not grudge against one another, brothers, lest you be condemned. Behold, [the] Judge stands before the door.

mkjv@James:5:10 @ My brothers, take the prophets who have spoken in the name of [the] Lord, [for] an example of suffering ill, and of patience.

mkjv@James:5:11 @ Behold, we count blessed those who endure. You have heard of the patience of Job, and you have seen the end of the Lord, that the Lord is full of pity and of tender mercy.

mkjv@James:5:12 @ But before all things, my brothers, do not swear; neither by the heaven nor by the earth, nor any other oath. But let your yes be yes, and [your] no, no, lest you fall into condemnation.

mkjv@James:5:13 @ Is any among you afflicted? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing psalms.

mkjv@James:5:14 @ Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.

mkjv@James:5:15 @ And the prayer of faith will cure the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up. And if he has committed sins, it will be forgiven him.

mkjv@James:5:16 @ Confess faults to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. [The] effectual fervent prayer of a righteous one avails much.

mkjv@James:5:17 @ Elijah was a man of like passion as we are. And he prayed earnestly [that it] might not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for the time of three years and six months.

mkjv@James:5:18 @ And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth caused its fruit to sprout.

mkjv@James:5:19 @ Brothers, if anyone among you err from the truth, and if anyone turns him back,

mkjv@James:5:20 @ know that he who turns back the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.

mkjv@1Peter:1:1 @ Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to [the] elect sojourners of [the] Dispersion of Pontus, of Galatia, of Cappadocia, of Asia, and of Bithynia,

mkjv@1Peter:1:2 @ according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of [the] Spirit, to obedience and sprinkling of [the] blood of Jesus Christ. May grace and peace be multiplied to you.

mkjv@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has regenerated us again to a living hope through [the] resurrection of Jesus Christ from [the] dead,

mkjv@1Peter:1:4 @ to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, and unfading, reserved in Heaven for you

mkjv@1Peter:1:5 @ by [the] power of God, having been kept through faith to a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time;

mkjv@1Peter:1:6 @ in which you greatly rejoice, yet a little [while], if need be, grieving in manifold temptations;

mkjv@1Peter:1:7 @ so that the trial of your faith (being much more precious than that of gold that perishes, but being proven through fire) might be found to praise and honor and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,

mkjv@1Peter:1:8 @ whom having not seen, you love; in whom not yet seeing, but believing in Him you exult with unspeakable joy, and having been glorified,

mkjv@1Peter:1:9 @ obtaining the end of your faith, the salvation of [your] souls.

mkjv@1Peter:1:10 @ About which salvation the prophets sought out and searched out, prophesying concerning the grace for you;

mkjv@1Peter:1:11 @ searching for what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ made clear within them, testifying beforehand of the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that should follow.

mkjv@1Peter:1:12 @ To them it was revealed that not to themselves, but to us, they ministered the things which are now reported to you by those who have preached the gospel to you in [the] Holy Spirit sent from Heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.

mkjv@1Peter:1:13 @ Therefore girding up the loins of your mind, being sober, perfectly hope for the grace being brought to you at [the] revelation of Jesus Christ,

mkjv@1Peter:1:14 @ as obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance,

mkjv@1Peter:1:15 @ but according to the Holy One who has called you, you also become holy in all conduct,

mkjv@1Peter:1:16 @ because it is written, Be holy, for I am holy.

mkjv@1Peter:1:17 @ And if you call on [the] Father, who without respect of persons judges according to the work of each one, pass the time of your [earthly] residence in fear,

mkjv@1Peter:1:18 @ knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, silver or gold, from your vain manner of life handed down from [your] fathers,

mkjv@1Peter:1:19 @ but with [the] precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot;

mkjv@1Peter:1:20 @ indeed having been foreknown before [the] foundation of [the] world, but revealed in [the] last times for you,

mkjv@1Peter:1:21 @ those believing in God through Him, He who raised Him up from [the] dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope might be in God.

mkjv@1Peter:1:22 @ Purifying your souls in the obedience of the truth through the Spirit to unfeigned love of the brothers, love one another fervently out of a pure heart,

mkjv@1Peter:1:23 @ having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the living word of God, and abiding forever.

mkjv@1Peter:1:24 @ For all flesh [is] as grass, and all the glory of men as the flower of the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls out,

mkjv@1Peter:1:25 @ but the Word of the Lord endures forever. And this is the Word preached as gospel to you.

mkjv@1Peter:2:1 @ Therefore laying aside all malice and all guile and hypocrisies and envyings, and all evil speakings,

mkjv@1Peter:2:2 @ desire the sincere milk of the word, as newborn babes, so that you may grow by it;

mkjv@1Peter:2:3 @ if truly you have tasted that the Lord [is] gracious.

mkjv@1Peter:2:4 @ For having been drawn to Him, a living Stone, indeed rejected by men, but elect, precious with God;

mkjv@1Peter:2:5 @ you also as living stones are built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Peter:2:6 @ Therefore also it is contained in the Scripture: Behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner Stone, elect, precious, and he who believes on Him shall never be ashamed.

mkjv@1Peter:2:7 @ Therefore to you who believe [is] the honor. But to those who are disobedient, [He is the] Stone which the builders rejected; this One came to be [the] Head of the corner,

mkjv@1Peter:2:8 @ and a Stone-of-stumbling and a Rock-of-offense to those disobeying, who stumble at the word, to which they also were appointed.

mkjv@1Peter:2:9 @ But you [are] a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for possession, so that you might speak of the praises of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

mkjv@1Peter:2:10 @ [you] who then were not a people, but now the people of God, those not pitied [then], but now pitied.

mkjv@1Peter:2:11 @ Dearly beloved, I exhort [you] as [temporary] residents and pilgrims to abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,

mkjv@1Peter:2:12 @ having your conduct honest among the nations, in that which they speak against you as evildoers, they may glorify God in a day of [His] visitation, seeing [your] good works.

mkjv@1Peter:2:13 @ Then be in obedience to every ordinance of men, because of the Lord, whether to a king as supreme,

mkjv@1Peter:2:14 @ or to governors as sent by Him for vengeance [on] evildoers, but for praise [on] well-doers.

mkjv@1Peter:2:15 @ For such is the will of God, doing good to silence the ignorance of foolish men;

mkjv@1Peter:2:16 @ as free, and not having freedom as a cover of evil, but as servants of God.

mkjv@1Peter:2:17 @ Honor all. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

mkjv@1Peter:2:18 @ Servants, [be] subject to [your] masters with all fear, not only to those good and forbearing, but also to the perverse ones.

mkjv@1Peter:2:19 @ For this [is] a grace, if for conscience [toward] God anyone endures grief, suffering wrongfully.

mkjv@1Peter:2:20 @ For what glory [is it] if you patiently endure [while] sinning and being buffeted? But if you suffer [while] doing good, and patiently endure, this [is] a grace from God.

mkjv@1Peter:2:21 @ For you were not called to this? For Christ also suffered on our behalf, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps,

mkjv@1Peter:2:22 @ He who did no sin, nor was guile found in His mouth,

mkjv@1Peter:2:23 @ who when He was reviled did not revile in return. When He suffered, He did not threaten, but gave [Himself] up to Him who judges righteously.

mkjv@1Peter:2:24 @ [He] Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that dying to sins, we might live to righteousness; by whose stripes you were healed.

mkjv@1Peter:2:25 @ For you were as sheep going astray, but now you are turned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

mkjv@1Peter:3:1 @ Likewise, wives, [be] in subjection to your own husbands, so that if any do not obey the word, they may also be won without the word by the conduct of the wives,

mkjv@1Peter:3:2 @ having witnessed your chaste behavior in [the] fear [of God].

mkjv@1Peter:3:3 @ Of whom let not be the adorning of garments, or outward braiding of hair and wearing of gold, or of putting on clothing,

mkjv@1Peter:3:4 @ but [let it be] the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, the meek and quiet spirit, which is of great price in the sight of God.

mkjv@1Peter:3:5 @ For so once indeed the holy women hoping in God adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands;

mkjv@1Peter:3:6 @ as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord; whose children you became, doing good and fearing no terror.

mkjv@1Peter:3:7 @ Likewise, husbands, live together according to knowledge, giving honor to the wife as to the weaker vessel, the female, as truly [being] co-heirs together of [the] grace of life, not cutting off your prayers.

mkjv@1Peter:3:8 @ And finally, all [be] of one mind, having compassion on one another, loving the brothers, tenderhearted, friendly.

mkjv@1Peter:3:9 @ Never give back evil for evil, or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, [giving] blessing, knowing that you are called to this so that you might inherit blessing.

mkjv@1Peter:3:10 @ For he that wants to love life and to see good days, let him restrain his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking guile.

mkjv@1Peter:3:11 @ Let him turn aside from evil and do good. Let him seek peace and pursue it.

mkjv@1Peter:3:12 @ For the eyes of [the] Lord [are] on the righteous, and His ears [open] to their prayers. But [the] Lord's face [is] against [those] who do evil.

mkjv@1Peter:3:13 @ And who [is] the [one] who will harm you if you become imitators of the good?

mkjv@1Peter:3:14 @ But if you also suffer for righteousness' sake, [you are] blessed. And do not fear their fear, nor be troubled,

mkjv@1Peter:3:15 @ but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and [be] ready always to [give] an answer to everyone who asks you a reason of the hope in you, with meekness and fear;

mkjv@1Peter:3:16 @ having a good conscience, that while they speak against you as evildoers they may be shamed, those falsely accusing your good behavior in Christ.

mkjv@1Peter:3:17 @ For [it is] better, if the will of God wills [it], to suffer [for] well-doing than [for] evil-doing.

mkjv@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ also once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, indeed being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the Spirit;

mkjv@1Peter:3:19 @ in which also He went and preached to the spirits in prison,

mkjv@1Peter:3:20 @ to disobeying ones, when once the long-suffering of God waited in [the] days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared (in which a few, that is, eight souls were saved through water);

mkjv@1Peter:3:21 @ which figure now also saves us, baptism; not a putting away of [the] filth of [the] flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God, by [the] resurrection of Jesus Christ;

mkjv@1Peter:3:22 @ who is at [the] right [hand] of God, having gone into Heaven, where [the] angels and authorities and powers are being subjected to Him.

mkjv@1Peter:4:1 @ Therefore, Christ having suffered for us in [the] flesh, also you arm yourselves [with] the same thought, that he suffering in [the] flesh has been made to rest from sin,

mkjv@1Peter:4:2 @ in order no longer to [live] in [the] lusts of men, but in [the] will of God the remaining time in [the] flesh.

mkjv@1Peter:4:3 @ For the time of life which is past is enough for us to have worked out the will of the nations, having gone on in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, parties, carousings, and abominable idolatries.

mkjv@1Peter:4:4 @ In these things they are surprised, [that] you [are] not running with [them] into the same excess of riot, blaspheming.

mkjv@1Peter:4:5 @ But they shall give account to Him who is ready to judge [the] living and [the] dead.

mkjv@1Peter:4:6 @ For to this [end] the gospel was preached also to [the] dead, that they might be judged according to men in [the] flesh, but live according to God in [the] Spirit.

mkjv@1Peter:4:7 @ But the end of all things has drawn near. Therefore be of sound mind, and be sensible to prayers.

mkjv@1Peter:4:8 @ And above all things have fervent love to yourselves, for love will cover a multitude of sins.

mkjv@1Peter:4:9 @ Be hospitable to one another, without grudging;

mkjv@1Peter:4:10 @ each one as he received a gift, ministering it to yourselves as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

mkjv@1Peter:4:11 @ If anyone speaks, [let it be] as [the] words of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as of the ability which God gives, so that God may be glorified in all things through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory, and the might forever and ever. Amen.

mkjv@1Peter:4:12 @ Beloved, do not be astonished at the fiery trial which is to try you, as [though] a strange thing happened to you,

mkjv@1Peter:4:13 @ but rejoice according as you are partakers of Christ's suffering, so that when His glory shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy.

mkjv@1Peter:4:14 @ If you are reviled for [the] name of Christ, [you are] blessed, because the Spirit of God and of glory rests on you. Truly according to them, He is blasphemed, but according to you He is glorified.

mkjv@1Peter:4:15 @ But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evildoer, or a meddler in the affairs of others.

mkjv@1Peter:4:16 @ But if [one suffers] as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God because of this.

mkjv@1Peter:4:17 @ For the time [has come] for the judgment to begin from the house of God. And if [it] first [begins] from us, what [will be] the end of those disobeying the gospel of God?

mkjv@1Peter:4:18 @ And if the righteous one is scarcely saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

mkjv@1Peter:4:19 @ Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls in well-doing, as to a faithful Creator.

mkjv@1Peter:5:1 @ I exhort the elders who are among you, I being also an elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed.

mkjv@1Peter:5:2 @ Feed the flock of God among you, taking the oversight, not by compulsion, but willingly; nor for base gain, but readily;

mkjv@1Peter:5:3 @ nor as lording it over those allotted [to you by God], but becoming examples to the flock.

mkjv@1Peter:5:4 @ And when the Chief Shepherd shall appear, you shall receive a never-fading crown of glory.

mkjv@1Peter:5:5 @ Likewise, younger ones, be subject to older ones, and all being subject to one another. Put on humility. For God resists proud ones, but He gives grace to the humble.

mkjv@1Peter:5:6 @ Therefore be humbled under the mighty hand of God, so that He may exalt you in due time,

mkjv@1Peter:5:7 @ casting all your anxiety onto Him, for He cares for you.

mkjv@1Peter:5:8 @ Be sensible [and] vigilant, because your adversary [the] Devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking someone he may devour;

mkjv@1Peter:5:9 @ whom firmly resist in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions in [the] world are being completed in your brotherhood.

mkjv@1Peter:5:10 @ But the God of all grace, He calling us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little, [He] will perfect, confirm, strengthen, and establish [you].

mkjv@1Peter:5:11 @ To Him [be] the glory and the might forever and ever. Amen.

mkjv@1Peter:5:12 @ I wrote to you through a few [words], by Silvanus, a faithful brother to you, as I suppose, exhorting and testifying this to be [the] true grace of God in which you stand.

mkjv@1Peter:5:13 @ The fellow-elected in Babylon greet you; also Mark my son.

mkjv@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with a kiss of holy love. Peace [be] to you, all those in Christ Jesus. Amen.

mkjv@2Peter:1:1 @ Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained like precious faith with us through [the] righteousness of our God and our Savior Jesus Christ,

mkjv@2Peter:1:2 @ Grace and peace be multiplied to you through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,

mkjv@2Peter:1:3 @ according as His divine power has given to us all things that [pertain] to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who has called us to glory and virtue,

mkjv@2Peter:1:4 @ through which He has given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, so that by these you might be partakers of [the] divine nature, having escaped the corruption [that is] in [the] world through lust.

mkjv@2Peter:1:5 @ But also in this very thing, bringing in all diligence, filling out your faith with virtue, and with virtue, knowledge;

mkjv@2Peter:1:6 @ and with] knowledge self-control, and [with] self-control, patience, and [with] patience, godliness,

mkjv@2Peter:1:7 @ and [with] godliness, brotherly kindness, and [with] brotherly kindness, love.

mkjv@2Peter:1:8 @ For if these things are in you and abound, they make you to be] neither idle nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Peter:1:9 @ For he] in whom these things are not present is blind and cannot see afar off and has forgotten that he was purged from his sins in the past.

mkjv@2Peter:1:10 @ Therefore, brothers, rather be diligent to make your calling and election sure, for [if you] do these things, you shall never fall.

mkjv@2Peter:1:11 @ For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Peter:1:12 @ Therefore I will not neglect to put you always in remembrance of these things, though [you] know [them] and are established in the present truth.

mkjv@2Peter:1:13 @ But I think [it] right, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by a reminder,

mkjv@2Peter:1:14 @ knowing that the putting off of my tabernacle is soon, as indeed our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.

mkjv@2Peter:1:15 @ And I will also be diligent to cause you to always have memory of these things after my departure.

mkjv@2Peter:1:16 @ For not having followed fables having been cunningly devised, but becoming eyewitnesses of the majesty of Jesus Christ, we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord.

mkjv@2Peter:1:17 @ For He received honor and glory from God [the] Father, when was borne to Him a voice from the excellent glory, This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

mkjv@2Peter:1:18 @ And we heard this voice being borne from Heaven, being with Him in the holy mountain.

mkjv@2Peter:1:19 @ We also have a more sure word of prophecy, to which you do well to take heed, as to a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the Daystar arises in your hearts,

mkjv@2Peter:1:20 @ knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture came into being of [its] own private interpretation.

mkjv@2Peter:1:21 @ For prophecy was not borne at any time by [the] will of man, but holy men of God spoke being borne along by the Holy Spirit.

mkjv@2Peter:2:1 @ But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who secretly will bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing on themselves swift destruction.

mkjv@2Peter:2:2 @ And many will follow their pernicious ways, and because of them the way of truth will be evil spoken of.

mkjv@2Peter:2:3 @ And through covetousness they will use you for gain with well-turned words; for whom judgment from of old does not linger, and their destruction does not sleep.

mkjv@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare sinning angels, but thrust [them] down into Tartarus, and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, being reserved to judgment.

mkjv@2Peter:2:5 @ And He did not spare [the] old world, but saved Noah [the] eighth one, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly.

mkjv@2Peter:2:6 @ And turning the cities [of] Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, He condemned [them] with an overthrow, setting an example to men] intending to live ungodly.

mkjv@2Peter:2:7 @ And He delivered righteous Lot, oppressed with the lustful behavior of the lawless.

mkjv@2Peter:2:8 @ For that righteous one living among them, in seeing and hearing, [his] righteous soul [was] tormented from day to day with [their] unlawful deeds.

mkjv@2Peter:2:9 @ [The] Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to reserve the unjust for a day of judgment, to be punished,

mkjv@2Peter:2:10 @ and especially those who walk after the flesh in [the] lust of uncleanness, and despise dominion. They are darers, self-pleasing; not trembling [at] glories, speaking evil.

mkjv@2Peter:2:11 @ Where angels, [who are] greater in power and might, do not bring a reproaching accusation against them before [the] Lord.

mkjv@2Peter:2:12 @ But these, as unreasoning natural brute animals having been born for capture and corruption, speak evil of the things that they do not understand. And they will utterly perish in their own corruption,

mkjv@2Peter:2:13 @ being about to receive [the] wages of unrighteousness, deeming indulgence [as] pleasure in [the] daytime, and reveling [in] spots and blemishes, feasting along with you in their deceits,

mkjv@2Peter:2:14 @ having eyes full of adultery and never ceasing from sin, alluring unstable souls, having a heart exercised [with] covetousness. [They are] cursed children

mkjv@2Peter:2:15 @ who have forsaken the right way and have gone astray, following the way of Balaam [the son] of Beor, who loved [the] wages of unrighteousness,

mkjv@2Peter:2:16 @ but had reproof of [his] lawbreaking, a dumb ass speaking in a man's voice, held back the madness of the prophet.

mkjv@2Peter:2:17 @ These are wells without water, clouds driven with a tempest, for whom the blackness of darkness is reserved forever.

mkjv@2Peter:2:18 @ For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity, they lure through [the] lusts of the flesh, by unbridled lust, the ones who were escaping from those who live in error;

mkjv@2Peter:2:19 @ promising them liberty, they themselves are the slaves of corruption. For by whom anyone has been overcome, even to this one he has been enslaved.

mkjv@2Peter:2:20 @ For if [they] have escaped the pollutions of the world through the full knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and are again entangled, they have been overcome by these, [their] last things are worse [than] the first.

mkjv@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would have been better for them not to have fully known the way of righteousness, than fully knowing [it], to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.

mkjv@2Peter:2:22 @ But [the] word of the true proverb has happened to them: [The] dog turning to [his] own vomit; and, [The] washed sow to wallowing in the mire.

mkjv@2Peter:3:1 @ Beloved, I now write this second letter to you, in which I stir up your pure mind by reminder

mkjv@2Peter:3:2 @ to remember the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of the Lord and Savior by us, the apostles.

mkjv@2Peter:3:3 @ First, knowing this, that there will come in [the] last days scoffers walking according to their own lusts

mkjv@2Peter:3:4 @ and saying, Where is the promise of His coming? For since [the] fathers fell asleep, all things continue as [they were] from the beginning of creation.

mkjv@2Peter:3:5 @ For this is hidden from them [by their] willing it, that the heavens were of old, and the earth out of the water, and through water, being held together by the word of God,

mkjv@2Peter:3:6 @ through which the world that then was, being flooded by water, perished.

mkjv@2Peter:3:7 @ But the present heavens and the earth being kept in store by the same word, are being kept for fire until the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

mkjv@2Peter:3:8 @ But, beloved, let not this one thing be hidden [from you], that one day [is] with [the] Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

mkjv@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord is not slow concerning His promise, as some count slowness, but is long-suffering toward us, not purposing that any [of us] should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

mkjv@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in [the] night, in which the heavens will pass away with a rushing noise, and [the] elements will melt with fervent heat. And the earth and the works in it will be burned up.

mkjv@2Peter:3:11 @ Then, all these things being [about to be] dissolved, what sort ought you to be in holy behavior and godliness,

mkjv@2Peter:3:12 @ looking for and rushing the coming of the Day of God, on account of which [the] heavens, being on fire, will melt away, and [the] elements will melt, burning with heat?

mkjv@2Peter:3:13 @ But according to His promise, we look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.

mkjv@2Peter:3:14 @ Therefore, beloved, looking for these things, be diligent, spotless, and without blemish, to be found by Him in peace.

mkjv@2Peter:3:15 @ And think of the long-suffering of our Lord [as] salvation (as our beloved brother Paul also has written to you according to the wisdom given to him

mkjv@2Peter:3:16 @ as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which the unlearned and unstable pervert, as also [they do] the rest of the Scriptures, to [their] own destruction).

mkjv@2Peter:3:17 @ Therefore, beloved, knowing beforehand, beware lest being led away with the error of the lawless, you fall from [your] own steadfastness.

mkjv@2Peter:3:18 @ But grow in grace and [in] knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him [be] the glory, both now and to [the] day of eternity. Amen.

mkjv@1John:1:1 @ That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life,

mkjv@1John:1:2 @ (for the Life was revealed, and we have seen [it] and bear witness, and show to you the everlasting Life, who was with the Father and was revealed to us),

mkjv@1John:1:3 @ that which we have seen and heard we declare unto you, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And truly our fellowship [is] with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1John:1:4 @ And we write these things to you so that your joy may be full.

mkjv@1John:1:5 @ And this is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all.

mkjv@1John:1:6 @ If we say that we have fellowship with Him and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.

mkjv@1John:1:7 @ But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

mkjv@1John:1:8 @ If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

mkjv@1John:1:9 @ If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

mkjv@1John:1:10 @ If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His Word is not in us.

mkjv@1John:2:1 @ My little children, I write these things to you so] that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ [the] righteous.

mkjv@1John:2:2 @ And He is [the] propitiation concerning our sins, and not concerning ours only, but also concerning [the sins of] all the world.

mkjv@1John:2:3 @ And by this we know that we have known Him, if we keep His commandments.

mkjv@1John:2:4 @ He who says, I have known Him, and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

mkjv@1John:2:5 @ But whoever keeps His Word, truly in this one the love of God is perfected. By this we know that we are in Him.

mkjv@1John:2:6 @ He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk even as He walked.

mkjv@1John:2:7 @ Brothers, I do not write a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you had from [the] beginning. The old commandment is the word which you have heard from [the] beginning.

mkjv@1John:2:8 @ Again, I write a new commandment to you, which thing is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away, and the true Light now shines.

mkjv@1John:2:9 @ He who says he is in the light and hates his brother is in darkness until now.

mkjv@1John:2:10 @ He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no offense in him.

mkjv@1John:2:11 @ But he who hates his brother is in darkness, and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because darkness has blinded his eyes.

mkjv@1John:2:12 @ I write to you, little children, because [your] sins are forgiven you for His name's sake.

mkjv@1John:2:13 @ I write to you, fathers, because you have known Him [who is] from [the] beginning. I write to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, little children, because you have known the Father.

mkjv@1John:2:14 @ I write to you, fathers, because you have known Him [who is] from [the] beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

mkjv@1John:2:15 @ Do not love the world, nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him,

mkjv@1John:2:16 @ because all that [is] in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

mkjv@1John:2:17 @ And the world passes away, and the lust of it, but he who does the will of God abides forever.

mkjv@1John:2:18 @ Little children, it is the last time. And just as you have heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have risen up, from which we know that it is the last hour.

mkjv@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they were of us, they would have continued with us. But [they went out] so that it might be revealed that they were not all of us.

mkjv@1John:2:20 @ But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.

mkjv@1John:2:21 @ I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and know that no lie is of the truth.

mkjv@1John:2:22 @ Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He who denies the Father and the Son is antichrist.

mkjv@1John:2:23 @ Everyone who denies the Son neither has the Father. The [one] confessing the Son also has the Father.

mkjv@1John:2:24 @ Therefore what you heard from the beginning, let it abide in you. If what you heard from [the] beginning remains in you, you will abide in both the Son and in the Father.

mkjv@1John:2:25 @ And this is the promise that He has promised us: everlasting life.

mkjv@1John:2:26 @ These [things] I have written to you concerning those leading you astray.

mkjv@1John:2:27 @ But the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as His anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true and no lie, and as He has taught you, abide in Him.

mkjv@1John:2:28 @ And now, little children, abide in Him, so that when He is revealed, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him in His coming.

mkjv@1John:2:29 @ If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who does righteousness has been born of Him.

mkjv@1John:3:1 @ Behold what manner of love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God. Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

mkjv@1John:3:2 @ Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be. But we know that when He shall be revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.

mkjv@1John:3:3 @ And everyone who has this hope on him purifies himself, even as that [One] is pure.

mkjv@1John:3:4 @ Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness, for sin is lawlessness.

mkjv@1John:3:5 @ And you know that He was revealed that He might take away our sins, and in Him is no sin.

mkjv@1John:3:6 @ Everyone who abides in Him does not sin. Everyone who sins has not seen Him nor known Him.

mkjv@1John:3:7 @ Little children, let no one deceive you. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as that [One] is righteous.

mkjv@1John:3:8 @ He who practices sin is of the Devil, for the Devil sins from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was revealed, that He might undo the works of the Devil.

mkjv@1John:3:9 @ Everyone who has been born of God does not commit sin, because His seed remains in him, and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

mkjv@1John:3:10 @ In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the Devil: everyone not practicing righteousness is not of God, also he who does not love his brother.

mkjv@1John:3:11 @ For this is the message that you have heard from [the] beginning, that we should love one another;

mkjv@1John:3:12 @ not as Cain [who] was of the evil one, and killed his brother. And for what did he kill him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's things were righteous.

mkjv@1John:3:13 @ Do not marvel, my brothers, if the world hates you.

mkjv@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brothers. He who does not love [his] brother abides in death.

mkjv@1John:3:15 @ Everyone hating his brother is a murderer. And you know that no murderer has everlasting life abiding in him.

mkjv@1John:3:16 @ By this we have known the love [of God], because He laid down His life for us. And we ought to lay down [our] lives for the brothers.

mkjv@1John:3:17 @ But whoever has this world's goods and sees his brother having need, and shuts up his bowels from him, how does the love of God dwell in him?

mkjv@1John:3:18 @ My children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.

mkjv@1John:3:19 @ And in this we shall know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him,

mkjv@1John:3:20 @ that if our heart accuses us, God is greater than our heart and knows all things.

mkjv@1John:3:21 @ Beloved, if our heart does not accuse us, we have confidence toward God.

mkjv@1John:3:22 @ And whatever we ask, we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.

mkjv@1John:3:23 @ And this is His commandment, that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as He gave us commandment.

mkjv@1John:3:24 @ And he who keeps His commandment dwells in Him, and He in him. And by this we know that He abides in us, by the Spirit which He gave to us.

mkjv@1John:4:1 @ Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but try the spirits to see if they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

mkjv@1John:4:2 @ By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in [the] flesh is of God;

mkjv@1John:4:3 @ and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in [the] flesh is not of God. And this is the antichrist you heard is coming, and even now is already in the world.

mkjv@1John:4:4 @ You are of God, little children, and you have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

mkjv@1John:4:5 @ They are of the world, therefore they speak of the world, and the world hears them.

mkjv@1John:4:6 @ We are of God. He who knows God hears us. The one who is not of God does not hear us. From this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

mkjv@1John:4:7 @ Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God, and everyone who loves has been born of God, and knows God.

mkjv@1John:4:8 @ The one who does not love has not known God. For God is love.

mkjv@1John:4:9 @ In this the love of God was revealed in us, because God sent His only begotten Son into the world that we might live through Him.

mkjv@1John:4:10 @ In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son [to be] the propitiation concerning our sins.

mkjv@1John:4:11 @ Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

mkjv@1John:4:12 @ No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwells in us, and His love is perfected in us.

mkjv@1John:4:13 @ By this we know that we dwell in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.

mkjv@1John:4:14 @ And we have seen and testify that the Father sent the Son [to be] the Savior of the world.

mkjv@1John:4:15 @ Whoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwells in him and he in God.

mkjv@1John:4:16 @ And we have known and believed the love that God has in us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.

mkjv@1John:4:17 @ In this is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, that as He is, so also we are in this world.

mkjv@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has torment. He who fears has not been perfected in love.

mkjv@1John:4:19 @ We love Him because He first loved us.

mkjv@1John:4:20 @ If anyone says, I love God, and hates his brother, he is a liar. For if he does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

mkjv@1John:4:21 @ And we have this commandment from Him, that he who loves God should love his brother also.

mkjv@1John:5:1 @ Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God. And everyone who loves Him who begets also loves him who has been born of Him.

mkjv@1John:5:2 @ By this we know that we love the children of God, whenever we love God and keep His commandments.

mkjv@1John:5:3 @ For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments, and His commandments are not burdensome.

mkjv@1John:5:4 @ For everything that has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith.

mkjv@1John:5:5 @ Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

mkjv@1John:5:6 @ This is He who came through water and blood, Jesus Christ, not by water only, but by the water and blood. And the Spirit is He who bears witness, because the Spirit is the truth.

mkjv@1John:5:7 @ For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one.

mkjv@1John:5:8 @ And there are three that bear witness on the earth:] the Spirit, and the water, and the blood; and the three are into the one.

mkjv@1John:5:9 @ If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater. For this is the witness of God which He has testified about His Son.

mkjv@1John:5:10 @ He who believes on the Son of God has the witness in himself. He who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he does not believe the record that God gave of His Son.

mkjv@1John:5:11 @ And this is the record, that God has given to us everlasting life, and this life is in His Son.

mkjv@1John:5:12 @ He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.

mkjv@1John:5:13 @ I have written these things to you who believe on the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have everlasting life, and that you may believe on the name of the Son of God.

mkjv@1John:5:14 @ And this is the confidence that we have toward Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.

mkjv@1John:5:15 @ And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him.

mkjv@1John:5:16 @ If anyone sees his brother sin a sin not to death, he shall ask, and He shall give him life for those that do not sin to death. There is a sin to death, I do not say that he shall pray for it.

mkjv@1John:5:17 @ All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not to death.

mkjv@1John:5:18 @ We know that everyone who has been born of God does not continue to sin, but the one born of God guards himself, and the evil one does not touch him.

mkjv@1John:5:19 @ We know that we are of God, and all the world lies in evil.

mkjv@1John:5:20 @ And we know that the Son of God has come, and [He] has given us an understanding so that we may know Him who is true. And we are in Him that is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and the everlasting life.

mkjv@1John:5:21 @ Little children, guard yourselves from idols. Amen.

mkjv@2John:1:1 @ The elder to the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth and not only I, but also all those who have known the truth,

mkjv@2John:1:2 @ for the sake of the truth dwelling in us, and [which] shall be with us forever.

mkjv@2John:1:3 @ Grace will be with you, mercy [and] peace from God [the] Father and from [the] Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

mkjv@2John:1:4 @ I rejoiced greatly that I found your children walking in truth, as we have received command from the Father.

mkjv@2John:1:5 @ And now I beseech you, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we had from [the] beginning, that we love one another.

mkjv@2John:1:6 @ And this is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.

mkjv@2John:1:7 @ For many deceivers have entered into the world, who do not confess Jesus Christ coming in [the] flesh. This is the deceiver and the anti-christ.

mkjv@2John:1:8 @ Look to yourselves, so that we may not lose those things which we worked out, but that we may receive a full reward.

mkjv@2John:1:9 @ Everyone transgressing and not abiding in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ, he has both the Father and the Son.

mkjv@2John:1:10 @ If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into [your] house, nor speak a greeting to him.

mkjv@2John:1:11 @ For he who speaks a greeting to him is partaker of his evil deeds.

mkjv@2John:1:12 @ Having many things to write to you, I do not want [to say] with paper and ink. But I trust to come to you and speak face to face, so that our joy may be full.

mkjv@2John:1:13 @ The children of your elect sister greet you. Amen.

mkjv@3John:1:1 @ The elder to Gaius the beloved, whom I love in the truth.

mkjv@3John:1:2 @ Beloved, in regard to all things I pray [that] you prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers.

mkjv@3John:1:3 @ For I rejoiced greatly when [the] brothers came and testified of the truth that is in you, even as you walk in the truth.

mkjv@3John:1:4 @ I have no greater joy than these things, to hear that my children walk in the truth.

mkjv@3John:1:5 @ Beloved, you do faithfully whatever you work for the brothers and for strangers,

mkjv@3John:1:6 @ who in love bore witness of you before [the] church, whom you will do well to send forward worthily of God;

mkjv@3John:1:7 @ because they went forth for His name's sake, taking nothing from the nations.

mkjv@3John:1:8 @ Therefore we ought to entertain such, so that we might be co-workers in the truth.

mkjv@3John:1:9 @ I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to have the preeminence among them, did not receive us.

mkjv@3John:1:10 @ Therefore if I come, I will remember his deeds which he does, ranting against us with evil words. And not content [with] these, neither does he himself receive the brothers. And he forbids those who would, and casts [them] out of the church.

mkjv@3John:1:11 @ Beloved, do not imitate the bad, but the good. He who does good is from God, but he who does evil has not seen God.

mkjv@3John:1:12 @ Demetrius has good report by all, and by the truth itself. And we also bear witness, and you know that our witness is true.

mkjv@3John:1:13 @ I had many things to write, but I will not write to you with pen and ink,

mkjv@3John:1:14 @ but I trust I shall shortly see you, and we shall speak face to face. Peace [be] to you. The friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.

mkjv@Jude:1:1 @ Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to the [ones] called in God [the] Father, having been set apart, and having been kept by Jesus Christ:

mkjv@Jude:1:2 @ Mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you.

mkjv@Jude:1:3 @ Having made all haste to write to you about the common salvation, beloved, I had need to write to you to exhort [you] to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints.

mkjv@Jude:1:4 @ For certain men crept in secretly, those having been of old previously written into this condemnation, ungodly ones perverting the grace of our God for unbridled lust, and denying the only Master, God, even our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Jude:1:5 @ But I intend to remind you, you once knowing these things, that the Lord having delivered a people out of the land of Egypt, in the second place destroyed the ones not believing.

mkjv@Jude:1:6 @ And those angels not having kept their first place, but having deserted their dwelling-place, He has kept in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of a great Day;

mkjv@Jude:1:7 @ as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them, in like manner to these, committing fornication, and going away after other flesh, laid down an example before-times, undergoing vengeance of everlasting fire.

mkjv@Jude:1:8 @ Likewise, indeed, also these dreaming ones even defile flesh, and despise rulership, and speak evil of glories.

mkjv@Jude:1:9 @ But Michael, the archangel, when contending with the Devil, he argued about the body of Moses, he dared not bring a judgment of blasphemy, but said, Let the Lord rebuke you!

mkjv@Jude:1:10 @ But what things they do not know, they speak evil of. And what things they understand naturally, like the animals without reason, they are corrupted by these.

mkjv@Jude:1:11 @ Woe to them! For they went the way of Cain, and gave themselves up to the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Korah.

mkjv@Jude:1:12 @ These are sunken rocks in your love feasts, feasting together with you; feeding themselves without fear; waterless clouds being carried about by winds; fruitless autumn trees, having died twice, having been plucked up by the roots;

mkjv@Jude:1:13 @ wild waves of the sea foaming up their shames; wandering stars for whom blackness of darkness has been kept forever.

mkjv@Jude:1:14 @ And Enoch, the seventh from Adam, also prophesied to these, saying, Behold, the Lord came with myriads of His saints,

mkjv@Jude:1:15 @ to do judgment against all, and to rebuke all the ungodly of them concerning all their ungodly works which they ungodly did, and concerning all the hard things ungodly sinners spoke against Him.

mkjv@Jude:1:16 @ These are murmurers, complainers, leading lives according to their lusts. And their mouth speaks proud things, admiring faces for the sake of gain.

mkjv@Jude:1:17 @ But you, beloved, remember the words spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Jude:1:18 @ because they told you that at [the] last time there will be mockers according to their lusts, leading ungodly lives.

mkjv@Jude:1:19 @ These are those setting themselves apart, animal-like ones, not having the Spirit.

mkjv@Jude:1:20 @ But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit,

mkjv@Jude:1:21 @ keep yourselves in the love of God, eagerly awaiting the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to everlasting life.

mkjv@Jude:1:22 @ But pity some, making distinction.

mkjv@Jude:1:23 @ But save others with fear, snatching [them] out of the fire; hating even the garment having been stained from the flesh.

mkjv@Jude:1:24 @ Now to Him being able to keep you without stumbling, and to set you before His glory without blemish, with unspeakable joy;

mkjv@Jude:1:25 @ to the only wise God, our Savior, [be] glory and majesty and might and authority, even now and forever. Amen.
