Matthew:1:1 @ The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
mnt@Matthew:1:2 @ Abraham was the father of Isaac; Isaac was the father of Jacob; Jacob, of Judah and his brethren;
mnt@Matthew:1:11 @ Josiah, of Jechoniah and his brethren, at the time of the carrying away to Babylon.
mnt@Matthew:1:16 @ And Jacob, of Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
mnt@Matthew:1:17 @ So the whole number of generations from Abraham to David is fourteen; from David to the exile to Babylon is fourteen; and from the exile to Babylon to Christ is fourteen.
mnt@Matthew:1:18 @ The birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. After his mother, Mary, had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.
mnt@Matthew:1:19 @ But Joseph her husband, because he was just a man and unwilling to disgrace her, was minded to put her away secretly.
mnt@Matthew:1:20 @ And while he was having this in mind, behold! an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying.
mnt@Matthew:1:21 @ "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife home, for what is begotten in her is by the Holy Spirit; and she will bear a son, and you are to call him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins."
mnt@Matthew:1:22 @ All this happened that the word of the Lord spoken through the prophet might be fulfilled.
mnt@Matthew:1:23 @ Behold! the virgin shall be with child, and shall bear a son; and they shall call his name Immanuel, a word which means "God with us."
mnt@Matthew:1:24 @ Now when Joseph awoke from his sleep he did as the angel of the Lord had directed him, and took his wife home,
mnt@Matthew:2:2 @ "Where is the new-born King of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the East, and are come to worship him."
mnt@Matthew:2:3 @ When King Herod heard this he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
mnt@Matthew:2:4 @ So when he had gathered together all the chief priests and rabbis of the people, he began to inquire of them where the Christ was to be born.
mnt@Matthew:2:5 @ And they told him. "At Bethlehem in Judea, as it is written in the prophet.
mnt@Matthew:2:6 @ "And thou Bethlehem in the land of Judah, Thou are not least among the princes of Judah, For out of thee shall come a ruler Who shall shepherd my people, Israel."
mnt@Matthew:2:9 @ The Magi listened to the king, and went on their way, and lo! the star which they had seen in the east led them until it came and stood over the place where the young child was.
mnt@Matthew:2:11 @ When they had entered the house, they saw the child with Mary, his mother, and opening their treasure-chests they gave him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh.
mnt@Matthew:2:13 @ When they were gone an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying; "Rise! Take the young child and his mother and flee into Egypt, and there remain until I bring you word; for Herod intends to make a search for the child, in order to put him to death."
mnt@Matthew:2:14 @ So Joseph arose, took the child and his mother, by night, and departed to Egypt.
mnt@Matthew:2:20 @ saying, "Rise! Take the child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel, for those who were seeking the life of the child are dead."
mnt@Matthew:2:21 @ So he rose and took the child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
mnt@Matthew:2:22 @ But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father, Herod, he was afraid to go there; and being warned of God in a dream, he withdrew into Galilee and settled in a town called Nazareth,
mnt@Matthew:3:1 @ In those days came John the Baptist preaching in the desert of Judea;
mnt@Matthew:3:2 @ "Repent," said he, "for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."
mnt@Matthew:3:3 @ This Johnit was of whom it was said through Isaiah, the prophet, The voice of one who cries aloud in the desert, "Prepare a way for the Lord, Make the paths straight for him."
mnt@Matthew:3:4 @ This Johnwore a garment of camels hair, and a leather belt around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey.
mnt@Matthew:3:7 @ But when Johnsaw that many of the Pharisees and Sadducees were coming for baptism, he said. "O brood of vipers! Who has warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
mnt@Matthew:3:9 @ And do not presume to say to yourselves, We have Abraham as our father-I tell you that out of these very stones God is able to raise up descendants for Abraham.
mnt@Matthew:3:10 @ And already the axe is lying at the roots of the trees. Any tree, therefore, that does not bear good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.
mnt@Matthew:3:11 @ I indeed am baptizing you in water, unto repentance; but One is coming after me, mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire.
mnt@Matthew:3:12 @ His winnowing-fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse the threshing-floor. He will store his wheat in the granary, but will burn up the chaff in unquenchable fire."
mnt@Matthew:3:13 @ At that very time Jesus was on his way from Galilee to the Jordan, to John, to be baptized by him.
mnt@Matthew:3:14 @ But he tried to prevent him. "It is I," he said, "who need to be baptized by you, and are you coming to me?"
mnt@Matthew:3:15 @ But Jesus answered, "Permit it now, for so it is fitting for us to fulfill every religious duty."
mnt@Matthew:3:17 @ while a voice from heaven said, "This is my son, the beloved, In whom I delight."
mnt@Matthew:4:4 @ Jesus answered him, "It is written, Not by bread alone shall man live, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God."
mnt@Matthew:4:6 @ and said to him. "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down; for it is written, "He will give his angels charge over thee; Upon their hands they will bear thee up, Lest thou dash thy foot against a stone."
mnt@Matthew:4:7 @ "It is written again," answered Jesus, "Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God."
mnt@Matthew:4:10 @ "Begone, Satan!" answered Jesus, "for it is written, "Thou must worship the Lord thy God, and Him only must thou serve."
mnt@Matthew:4:11 @ Then the devil left him, and behold! angels came and began ministering to him.
mnt@Matthew:4:14 @ in order that these words spoken through Isaiah the prophet, might be fulfilled.
mnt@Matthew:4:17 @ From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, "Repent for the kingdom of heaven is near."
mnt@Matthew:4:18 @ And as he was walking by the see of Galilee, he saw two brothers- Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew, his brother-casting their net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
mnt@Matthew:4:19 @ "Come, follow me," said Jesus, "And I will make you fishers of men."
mnt@Matthew:4:21 @ As he went farther on he saw two other brothers, Jamesthe son of Zebedee, and Johnhis brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and he called them.
mnt@Matthew:4:23 @ Then Jesus went about through Galilee, teaching in the synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every kind of disease and infirmity among the people.
mnt@Matthew:4:24 @ And his fame spread throughout all Syria. They brought all the sick to him, those who were suffering from various diseases and troubles- demoniacs, epileptics, paralytics-and he healed them.
mnt@Matthew:5:1 @ When he saw the crowds, he went up the mountain, and when he had seated himself, his disciples came to him,
mnt@Matthew:5:2 @ and opening his lips he began to teach them, saying.
mnt@Matthew:5:3 @ "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for the kingdom of heaven is theirs.
mnt@Matthew:5:6 @ "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for the righteousness, for they shall be completely satisfied.
mnt@Matthew:5:10 @ "Blessed are those who have been persecuted in the cause of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
mnt@Matthew:5:13 @ "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt lose its savor, in what way shall it be salted? It is henceforth good for nothing but to be thrown out and trodden under foot of men.
mnt@Matthew:5:16 @ "So let your light shine before men that they may see good you do, and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
mnt@Matthew:5:20 @ "For I assure you that unless your righteousness exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not find entrance into the kingdom of heaven.
mnt@Matthew:5:22 @ but I say to you that he who becomes angry with his brother shall be liable to condemnation by the court; and he who says to his brother Raca, shall be liable to condemnation by the Sanhedrin, while he who curses his brother shall be liable to the Gehenna of Fire.
mnt@Matthew:5:25 @ "Come to terms with your opponent quickly, while you are yet with him on the way to the court, to prevent your opponent from handing you over to the judge, and the judge to the jailer, and so you be thrown into prison.
mnt@Matthew:5:28 @ But I say to you that whoever looks with lust at a woman has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
mnt@Matthew:5:29 @ And if your eye, your right eye, entices you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you. It is better for you to lose one of your bodily organs, than to have your whole body go down into the pit.
mnt@Matthew:5:30 @ And if your right hand entices you into sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is better for you to lose one of your bodily organs, than to have your whole body go down into the pit.
mnt@Matthew:5:31 @ "It was also said, "Whoever divorces his wife must give her a bill of separation.
mnt@Matthew:5:32 @ But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastity, makes her an adulteress, and whoever marries her when so divorced, commits adultery.
mnt@Matthew:5:34 @ "But I say to you, swear not at all; neither by the sky, for it is Gods throne;
mnt@Matthew:5:35 @ "nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the Great King.
mnt@Matthew:5:37 @ "But let your word be simply Yes or No;anything beyond this comes from the Evil One.
mnt@Matthew:5:45 @ "So you will become sons of your heavenly Father; for he makes his sun to rise upon sinners as well as saints, and sends rain upon the unjust and the just.
mnt@Matthew:5:48 @ "You then must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect."
mnt@Matthew:6:2 @ "And whatever you give alms, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and streets, in order that men may praise them. In solemn truth I tell you they already have their reward in full.
mnt@Matthew:6:3 @ "But when you give alms, do not let your right hand know what your left is doing,
mnt@Matthew:6:6 @ "But you, when you pray, go into your own room and shut your door; pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
mnt@Matthew:6:9 @ "So pray in this way. "Our Father who art in heaven, May thy name be hallowed,
mnt@Matthew:6:13 @ And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the Evil One; For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory. Amen.
mnt@Matthew:6:16 @ "When you fast, do not look downcast like the hypocrites; for they disfigure their faces so that it may be apparent to men that they are fasting. In solemn truth I tell you, they already have received their reward.
mnt@Matthew:6:17 @ "But when one of you fasts, let him anoint his head and wash his face,
mnt@Matthew:6:18 @ "so that he may not appear to men to be fasting, but to his Father who is in secret; and his Father who sees in secret will reward him.

mnt@Matthew:6:24 @ "No slave can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will pay heed to the one and despise the other. You cannot be the slaves both of God and of gold.
mnt@Matthew:6:25 @ "For this reason I say to you, do not be anxious about your life, inquiring what you shall eat or what you shall drink, nor yet for your body, inquiring what you shall wear. Is not your life more than its food, and your body than its clothing?
