rsv@Matthew:1:11 @ and Josi'ah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.

rsv@Matthew:1:18 @ Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit;

rsv@Matthew:1:19 @ and her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly.

rsv@Matthew:1:21 @ she will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins."

rsv@Matthew:1:23 @ "Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emmanuel" (which means, God with us).

rsv@Matthew:1:25 @ but knew her not until she had borne a son; and he called his name Jesus.

rsv@Matthew:2:1 @ Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying,

rsv@Matthew:2:2 @ "Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the East, and have come to worship him."

rsv@Matthew:2:6 @ `And you, O Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for from you shall come a ruler who will govern my people Israel.'"

rsv@Matthew:2:7 @ Then Herod summoned the wise men secretly and ascertained from them what time the star appeared;

rsv@Matthew:2:8 @ and he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, "Go and search diligently for the child, and when you have found him bring me word, that I too may come and worship him."

rsv@Matthew:2:9 @ When they had heard the king they went their way; and lo, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came to rest over the place where the child was.

rsv@Matthew:2:16 @ Then Herod, when he saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, was in a furious rage, and he sent and killed all the male children in Bethlehem and in all that region who were two years old or under, according to the time which he had ascertained from the wise men.

rsv@Matthew:2:18 @ "A voice was heard in Ramah, wailing and loud lamentation, Rachel weeping for her children; she refused to be consoled, because they were no more."

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

rsv@Matthew:3:4 @ Now John wore a garment of camel's hair, and a leather girdle around his waist; and his food was locusts and wild honey.

rsv@Matthew:3:7 @ But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sad'ducees coming for baptism, he said to them, "You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

rsv@Matthew:3:9 @ and do not presume to say to yourselves, `We have Abraham as our father'; for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children to Abraham.

rsv@Matthew:3:11 @ "I baptize you with water for repentance, but he who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry; he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

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

rsv@Matthew:3:14 @ John would have prevented him, saying, "I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?"

rsv@Matthew:3:16 @ And when Jesus was baptized, he went up immediately from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and alighting on him;

rsv@Matthew:4:3 @ And the tempter came and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread."

rsv@Matthew:4:9 @ and he said to him, "All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me."

rsv@Matthew:4:11 @ Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and ministered to him.

rsv@Matthew:4:17 @ From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

rsv@Matthew:4:18 @ As he walked by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

rsv@Matthew:4:19 @ And he said to them, "Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men."

rsv@Matthew:4:20 @ Immediately they left their nets and followed him.

rsv@Matthew:4:21 @ And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zeb'edee and John his brother, in the boat with Zeb'edee their father, mending their nets, and he called them.

rsv@Matthew:4:22 @ Immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed him.

rsv@Matthew:4:24 @ So his fame spread throughout all Syria, and they brought him all the sick, those afflicted with various diseases and pains, demoniacs, epileptics, and paralytics, and he healed them.

rsv@Matthew:5:1 @ Seeing the crowds, he went up on the mountain, and when he sat down his disciples came to him.

rsv@Matthew:5:5 @ "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.

rsv@Matthew:5:7 @ "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.

rsv@Matthew:5:11 @ "Blessed are you when men revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account.

rsv@Matthew:5:12 @ Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so men persecuted the prophets who were before you.

rsv@Matthew:5:13 @ "You are the salt of the earth; but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trodden under foot by men.

rsv@Matthew:5:15 @ Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.

rsv@Matthew:5:16 @ Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

rsv@Matthew:5:17 @ "Think not that I have come to abolish the law and the prophets; I have come not to abolish them but to fulfil them.

rsv@Matthew:5:19 @ Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

rsv@Matthew:5:21 @ "You have heard that it was said to the men of old, `You shall not kill; and whoever kills shall be liable to judgment.'

rsv@Matthew:5:22 @ But I say to you that every one who is angry with his brother shall be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother shall be liable to the council, and whoever says, `You fool!' shall be liable to the hell of fire.

rsv@Matthew:5:23 @ So if you are offering your gift at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you,

rsv@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.

rsv@Matthew:5:29 @ If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and throw it away; it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell.

rsv@Matthew:5:30 @ And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away; it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body go into hell.

rsv@Matthew:5:33 @ "Again you have heard that it was said to the men of old, `You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.'

rsv@Matthew:5:37 @ Let what you say be simply `Yes' or `No'; anything more than this comes from evil.

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

rsv@Matthew:5:47 @ And if you salute only your brethren, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?

rsv@Matthew:6:1 @ "Beware of practicing your piety before men in order to be seen by them; for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.

rsv@Matthew:6:2 @ "Thus, when you give alms, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

rsv@Matthew:6:5 @ "And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

rsv@Matthew:6:9 @ Pray then like this: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

rsv@Matthew:6:10 @ Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven.

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

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

rsv@Matthew:6:16 @ "And when you fast, do not look dismal, like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

rsv@Matthew:6:18 @ that your fasting may not be seen by men but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

rsv@Matthew:6:19 @ "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal,

rsv@Matthew:6:20 @ but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal.

rsv@Matthew:6:30 @ But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O men of little faith?

rsv@Matthew:7:2 @ For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and the measure you give will be the measure you get.

rsv@Matthew:7:4 @ Or how can you say to your brother, `Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when there is the log in your own eye?

rsv@Matthew:7:12 @ So whatever you wish that men would do to you, do so to them; for this is the law and the prophets.

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

rsv@Matthew:7:21 @ "Not every one who says to me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

rsv@Matthew:7:22 @ On that day many will say to me, `Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?'

rsv@Matthew:7:23 @ And then will I declare to them, `I never knew you; depart from me, you evildoers.'

rsv@Matthew:7:25 @ and the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.

rsv@Matthew:7:27 @ and the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell; and great was the fall of it."

rsv@Matthew:8:1 @ When he came down from the mountain, great crowds followed him;

rsv@Matthew:8:2 @ and behold, a leper came to him and knelt before him, saying, "Lord, if you will, you can make me clean."

rsv@Matthew:8:3 @ And he stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, "I will; be clean." And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

rsv@Matthew:8:5 @ As he entered Caper'na-um, a centurion came forward to him, beseeching him

rsv@Matthew:8:6 @ and saying, "Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, in terrible distress."

rsv@Matthew:8:7 @ And he said to him, "I will come and heal him."

rsv@Matthew:8:8 @ But the centurion answered him, "Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof; but only say the word, and my servant will be healed.

rsv@Matthew:8:9 @ For I am a man under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to one, `Go,' and he goes, and to another, `Come,' and he comes, and to my slave, `Do this,' and he does it."

rsv@Matthew:8:11 @ I tell you, many will come from east and west and sit at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven,

rsv@Matthew:8:12 @ while the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness; there men will weep and gnash their teeth."

rsv@Matthew:8:13 @ And to the centurion Jesus said, "Go; be it done for you as you have believed." And the servant was healed at that very moment.

rsv@Matthew:8:19 @ And a scribe came up and said to him, "Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go."

rsv@Matthew:8:21 @ Another of the disciples said to him, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father."

rsv@Matthew:8:22 @ But Jesus said to him, "Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead."

rsv@Matthew:8:26 @ And he said to them, "Why are you afraid, O men of little faith?" Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

rsv@Matthew:8:27 @ And the men marveled, saying, "What sort of man is this, that even winds and sea obey him?"

rsv@Matthew:8:28 @ And when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, two demoniacs met him, coming out of the tombs, so fierce that no one could pass that way.

rsv@Matthew:8:29 @ And behold, they cried out, "What have you to do with us, O Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?"

rsv@Matthew:8:30 @ Now a herd of many swine was feeding at some distance from them.

rsv@Matthew:8:32 @ And he said to them, "Go." So they came out and went into the swine; and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and perished in the waters.

rsv@Matthew:8:33 @ The herdsmen fled, and going into the city they told everything, and what had happened to the demoniacs.

rsv@Matthew:8:34 @ And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw him, they begged him to leave their neighborhood.

rsv@Matthew:9:1 @ And getting into a boat he crossed over and came to his own city.

rsv@Matthew:9:3 @ And behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, "This man is blaspheming."

rsv@Matthew:9:6 @ But that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins"--he then said to the paralytic--"Rise, take up your bed and go home."

rsv@Matthew:9:7 @ And he rose and went home.

rsv@Matthew:9:8 @ When the crowds saw it, they were afraid, and they glorified God, who had given such authority to men.

rsv@Matthew:9:9 @ As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, "Follow me." And he rose and followed him.

rsv@Matthew:9:10 @ And as he sat at table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.

rsv@Matthew:9:13 @ Go and learn what this means, `I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.' For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners."

rsv@Matthew:9:14 @ Then the disciples of John came to him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?"

rsv@Matthew:9:15 @ And Jesus said to them, "Can the wedding guests mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? The days will come, when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast.

rsv@Matthew:9:16 @ And no one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch tears away from the garment, and a worse tear is made.

rsv@Matthew:9:18 @ While he was thus speaking to them, behold, a ruler came in and knelt before him, saying, "My daughter has just died; but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live."

rsv@Matthew:9:20 @ And behold, a woman who had suffered from a hemorrhage for twelve years came up behind him and touched the fringe of his garment;

rsv@Matthew:9:21 @ for she said to herself, "If I only touch his garment, I shall be made well."

rsv@Matthew:9:23 @ And when Jesus came to the ruler's house, and saw the flute players, and the crowd making a tumult,

rsv@Matthew:9:27 @ And as Jesus passed on from there, two blind men followed him, crying aloud, "Have mercy on us, Son of David."

rsv@Matthew:9:28 @ When he entered 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."

rsv@Matthew:9:31 @ But they went away and spread his fame through all that district.

rsv@Matthew:10:2 @ The names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zeb'edee, and John his brother;

rsv@Matthew:10:3 @ Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;

rsv@Matthew:10:13 @ And if the house is worthy, let your peace come upon it; but if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.

rsv@Matthew:10:15 @ Truly, I say to you, it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom and Gomor'rah than for that town.

rsv@Matthew:10:17 @ Beware of men; for they will deliver you up to councils, and flog you in their synagogues,

rsv@Matthew:10:22 @ and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.

rsv@Matthew:10:23 @ When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next; for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel, before the Son of man comes.

rsv@Matthew:10:32 @ So every one who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven;

rsv@Matthew:10:33 @ but whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven.

rsv@Matthew:10:34 @ "Do not think that I have come to bring peace on earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

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

rsv@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;

rsv@Matthew:10:38 @ and he who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.

rsv@Matthew:10:40 @ "He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.

rsv@Matthew:11:3 @ and said to him, "Are you he who is to come, or shall we look for another?"

rsv@Matthew:11:5 @ the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

rsv@Matthew:11:6 @ And blessed is he who takes no offense at me."

rsv@Matthew:11:8 @ Why then did you go out? To see a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, those who wear soft raiment are in kings' houses.

rsv@Matthew:11:10 @ This is he of whom it is written, `Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.'

rsv@Matthew:11:11 @ Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has risen no one greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

rsv@Matthew:11:12 @ From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and men of violence take it by force.

rsv@Matthew:11:14 @ and if you are willing to accept it, he is Eli'jah who is to come.

rsv@Matthew:11:18 @ For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, `He has a demon';

rsv@Matthew:11:19 @ the Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, `Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' Yet wisdom is justified by her deeds."

rsv@Matthew:11:22 @ But I tell you, it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you.

rsv@Matthew:11:24 @ But I tell you that it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom than for you."

rsv@Matthew:11:25 @ At that time Jesus declared, "I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes;

rsv@Matthew:11:27 @ All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

rsv@Matthew:11:28 @ Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

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

rsv@Matthew:12:1 @ At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the sabbath; his disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.

rsv@Matthew:12:6 @ I tell you, something greater than the temple is here.

rsv@Matthew:12:7 @ And if you had known what this means, `I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the guiltless.

rsv@Matthew:12:21 @ and in his name will the Gentiles hope."

rsv@Matthew:12:28 @ But if it is by the Spirit of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

rsv@Matthew:12:30 @ He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.

rsv@Matthew:12:31 @ Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.

rsv@Matthew:12:32 @ And whoever says a word against the Son of man will be forgiven; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.

rsv@Matthew:12:36 @ I tell you, on the day of judgment men will render account for every careless word they utter;

rsv@Matthew:12:38 @ Then some of the scribes and Pharisees said to him, "Teacher, we wish to see a sign from you."

rsv@Matthew:12:41 @ The men of Nin'eveh will arise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.

rsv@Matthew:12:42 @ The queen of the South will arise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here.

rsv@Matthew:12:44 @ Then he says, `I will return to my house from which I came.' And when he comes he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.

rsv@Matthew:12:45 @ Then he goes and brings with him seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first. So shall it be also with this evil generation."

rsv@Matthew:13:1 @ That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the sea.

rsv@Matthew:13:4 @ And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them.

rsv@Matthew:13:5 @ Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they had not much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil,

rsv@Matthew:13:8 @ Other seeds fell on good soil and brought forth grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

rsv@Matthew:13:10 @ Then the disciples came and said to him, "Why do you speak to them in parables?"

rsv@Matthew:13:15 @ For this people's heart has grown dull, and their ears are heavy of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should perceive with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn for me to heal them.'

rsv@Matthew:13:17 @ Truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

rsv@Matthew:13:19 @ When any one hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what is sown in his heart; this is what was sown along the path.

rsv@Matthew:13:20 @ As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is he who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy;

rsv@Matthew:13:21 @ yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately he falls away.

rsv@Matthew:13:25 @ but while men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away.

rsv@Matthew:13:26 @ So when the plants came up and bore grain, then the weeds appeared also.

rsv@Matthew:13:27 @ And the servants of the householder came and said to him, `Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then has it weeds?'

rsv@Matthew:13:30 @ Let both grow together until the harvest; and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn.'"

rsv@Matthew:13:32 @ it is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches."

rsv@Matthew:13:33 @ He told them another parable. "The kingdom of heaven is like leaven which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, till it was all leavened."

rsv@Matthew:13:36 @ Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field."

rsv@Matthew:13:38 @ the field is the world, and the good seed means the sons of the kingdom; the weeds are the sons of the evil one,

rsv@Matthew:13:42 @ and throw them into the furnace of fire; there men will weep and gnash their teeth.

rsv@Matthew:13:45 @ "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls,

rsv@Matthew:13:48 @ when it was full, men drew it ashore and sat down and sorted the good into vessels but threw away the bad.

rsv@Matthew:13:49 @ So it will be at the close of the age. The angels will come out and separate the evil from the righteous,

rsv@Matthew:13:50 @ and throw them into the furnace of fire; there men will weep and gnash their teeth.

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

rsv@Matthew:14:1 @ At that time Herod the tetrarch heard about the fame of Jesus;

rsv@Matthew:14:6 @ But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Hero'di-as danced before the company, and pleased Herod,

rsv@Matthew:14:8 @ Prompted by her mother, she said, "Give me the head of John the Baptist here on a platter."

rsv@Matthew:14:12 @ And his disciples came and took the body and buried it; and they went and told Jesus.

rsv@Matthew:14:15 @ When it was evening, the disciples came to him and said, "This is a lonely place, and the day is now over; send the crowds away to go into the villages and buy food for themselves."

rsv@Matthew:14:16 @ Jesus said, "They need not go away; you give them something to eat."

rsv@Matthew:14:18 @ And he said, "Bring them here to me."

rsv@Matthew:14:21 @ And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

rsv@Matthew:14:23 @ And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone,

rsv@Matthew:14:24 @ but the boat by this time was many furlongs distant from the land, beaten by the waves; for the wind was against them.

rsv@Matthew:14:25 @ And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea.

rsv@Matthew:14:27 @ But immediately he spoke to them, saying, "Take heart, it is I; have no fear."

rsv@Matthew:14:28 @ And Peter answered him, "Lord, if it is you, bid me come to you on the water."

rsv@Matthew:14:29 @ He said, "Come." So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to Jesus;

rsv@Matthew:14:30 @ but when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, "Lord, save me."

rsv@Matthew:14:31 @ Jesus immediately reached out his hand and caught him, saying to him, "O man of little faith, why did you doubt?"

rsv@Matthew:14:34 @ And when they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret.

rsv@Matthew:14:35 @ And when the men of that place recognized him, they sent round to all that region and brought to him all that were sick,

rsv@Matthew:14:36 @ and besought him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched it were made well.

rsv@Matthew:15:1 @ Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and said,

rsv@Matthew:15:3 @ He answered them, "And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?

rsv@Matthew:15:5 @ But you say, `If any one tells his father or his mother, What you would have gained from me is given to God, he need not honor his father.'

rsv@Matthew:15:8 @ `This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me;

rsv@Matthew:27:1 @ When morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death;

rsv@Matthew:27:9 @ Then was fulfilled what had been spoken by the prophet Jeremiah, saying, "And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him on whom a price had been set by some of the sons of Israel,

rsv@Matthew:27:10 @ and they gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord directed me."

rsv@Matthew:27:15 @ Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release for the crowd any one prisoner whom they wanted.

rsv@Matthew:27:17 @ So when they had gathered, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release for you, Barab'bas or Jesus who is called Christ?"

rsv@Matthew:27:19 @ Besides, while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent word to him, "Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered much over him today in a dream."

rsv@Matthew:27:21 @ The governor again said to them, "Which of the two do you want me to release for you?" And they said, "Barab'bas."

rsv@Matthew:27:32 @ As they went out, they came upon a man of Cyre'ne, Simon by name; this man they compelled to carry his cross.

rsv@Matthew:27:33 @ And when they came to a place called Gol'gotha (which means the place of a skull),

rsv@Matthew:27:35 @ And when they had crucified him, they divided his garments among them by casting lots;

rsv@Matthew:27:40 @ and saying, "You who would destroy the temple and build it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross."

rsv@Matthew:27:42 @ "He saved others; he cannot save himself. He is the King of Israel; let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him.

rsv@Matthew:27:44 @ And the robbers who were crucified with him also reviled him in the same way.

rsv@Matthew:27:46 @ And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, la'ma sabach-tha'ni?" that is, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"

rsv@Matthew:27:47 @ And some of the bystanders hearing it said, "This man is calling Eli'jah."

rsv@Matthew:27:49 @ But the others said, "Wait, let us see whether Eli'jah will come to save him."

rsv@Matthew:27:55 @ There were also many women there, looking on from afar, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him;

rsv@Matthew:27:56 @ among whom were Mary Mag'dalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zeb'edee.

rsv@Matthew:27:57 @ When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathe'a, named Joseph, who also was a disciple of Jesus.

rsv@Matthew:27:63 @ and said, "Sir, we remember how that impostor said, while he was still alive, `After three days I will rise again.'

rsv@Matthew:28:2 @ And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone, and sat upon it.

rsv@Matthew:28:3 @ His appearance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow.

rsv@Matthew:28:4 @ And for fear of him the guards trembled and became like dead men.

rsv@Matthew:28:5 @ But the angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid; for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.

rsv@Matthew:28:6 @ He is not here; for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay.

rsv@Matthew:28:9 @ And behold, Jesus met them and said, "Hail!" And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him.

rsv@Matthew:28:10 @ Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid; go and tell my brethren to go to Galilee, and there they will see me."

rsv@Matthew:28:11 @ While they were going, behold, some of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests all that had taken place.

rsv@Matthew:28:13 @ and said, "Tell people, `His disciples came by night and stole him away while we were asleep.'

rsv@Matthew:28:14 @ And if this comes to the governor's ears, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble."

rsv@Matthew:28:17 @ And when they saw him they worshiped him; but some doubted.

rsv@Matthew:28:18 @ And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

rsv@Matthew:28:19 @ Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

rsv@Mark:1:2 @ As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way;

rsv@Mark:1:6 @ Now John was clothed with camel's hair, and had a leather girdle around his waist, and ate locusts and wild honey.

rsv@Mark:1:7 @ And he preached, saying, "After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.

rsv@Mark:1:9 @ In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

rsv@Mark:1:10 @ And when he came up out of the water, immediately he saw the heavens opened and the Spirit descending upon him like a dove;

rsv@Mark:1:11 @ and a voice came from heaven, "Thou art my beloved Son; with thee I am well pleased."

rsv@Mark:1:12 @ The Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness.

rsv@Mark:1:14 @ Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God,

rsv@Mark:1:15 @ and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent, and believe in the gospel."

rsv@Mark:1:16 @ And passing along by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net in the sea; for they were fishermen.

rsv@Mark:1:17 @ And Jesus said to them, "Follow me and I will make you become fishers of men."

rsv@Mark:1:18 @ And immediately they left their nets and followed him.

rsv@Mark:1:19 @ And going on a little farther, he saw James the son of Zeb'edee and John his brother, who were in their boat mending the nets.

rsv@Mark:1:20 @ And immediately he called them; and they left their father Zeb'edee in the boat with the hired servants, and followed him.

rsv@Mark:1:21 @ And they went into Caper'na-um; and immediately on the sabbath he entered the synagogue and taught.

rsv@Mark:1:23 @ And immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit;

rsv@Mark:1:24 @ and he cried out, "What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy One of God."

rsv@Mark:1:25 @ But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be silent, and come out of him!"

rsv@Mark:1:26 @ And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.

rsv@Mark:1:28 @ And at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee.

rsv@Mark:1:29 @ And immediately he left the synagogue, and entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

rsv@Mark:1:30 @ Now Simon's mother-in-law lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him of her.

rsv@Mark:1:31 @ And he came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and the fever left her; and she served them.

rsv@Mark:1:38 @ And he said to them, "Let us go on to the next towns, that I may preach there also; for that is why I came out."

rsv@Mark:1:40 @ And a leper came to him beseeching him, and kneeling said to him, "If you will, you can make me clean."

rsv@Mark:1:42 @ And immediately the leprosy left him, and he was made clean.

rsv@Mark:1:45 @ But he went out and began to talk freely about it, and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was out in the country; and people came to him from every quarter.

rsv@Mark:2:1 @ And when he returned to Caper'na-um after some days, it was reported that he was at home.

rsv@Mark:2:3 @ And they came, bringing to him a paralytic carried by four men.

rsv@Mark:2:6 @ Now some of the scribes were sitting there, questioning in their hearts,

rsv@Mark:2:8 @ And immediately Jesus, perceiving in his spirit that they thus questioned within themselves, said to them, "Why do you question thus in your hearts?

rsv@Mark:2:11 @ "I say to you, rise, take up your pallet and go home."

rsv@Mark:2:12 @ And he rose, and immediately took up the pallet and went out before them all; so that they were all amazed and glorified God, saying, "We never saw anything like this!"

rsv@Mark:2:14 @ And as he passed on, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office, and he said to him, "Follow me." And he rose and followed him.

rsv@Mark:2:17 @ And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick; I came not to call the righteous, but sinners."

rsv@Mark:2:18 @ Now John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting; and people came and said to him, "Why do John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?"

rsv@Mark:2:20 @ The days will come, when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast in that day.

rsv@Mark:2:21 @ No one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; if he does, the patch tears away from it, the new from the old, and a worse tear is made.

rsv@Mark:3:3 @ And he said to the man who had the withered hand, "Come here."

rsv@Mark:3:6 @ The Pharisees went out, and immediately held counsel with the Hero'di-ans against him, how to destroy him.

rsv@Mark:3:8 @ and Jerusalem and Idume'a and from beyond the Jordan and from about Tyre and Sidon a great multitude, hearing all that he did, came to him.

rsv@Mark:3:13 @ And he went up on the mountain, and called to him those whom he desired; and they came to him.

rsv@Mark:3:16 @ Simon whom he surnamed Peter;

rsv@Mark:3:17 @ James the son of Zeb'edee and John the brother of James, whom he surnamed Bo-aner'ges, that is, sons of thunder;

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

rsv@Mark:3:19 @ and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him. Then he went home;

rsv@Mark:3:20 @ and the crowd came together again, so that they could not even eat.

rsv@Mark:3:22 @ And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, "He is possessed by Be-el'zebul, and by the prince of demons he casts out the demons."

rsv@Mark:3:28 @ "Truly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter;

rsv@Mark:3:29 @ but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin"--

rsv@Mark:3:31 @ And his mother and his brothers came; and standing outside they sent to him and called him.

rsv@Mark:4:4 @ And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.

rsv@Mark:4:5 @ Other seed fell on rocky ground, where it had not much soil, and immediately it sprang up, since it had no depth of soil;

rsv@Mark:4:15 @ And these are the ones along the path, where the word is sown; when they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away the word which is sown in them.

rsv@Mark:4:16 @ And these in like manner are the ones sown upon rocky ground, who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy;

rsv@Mark:4:17 @ and they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately they fall away.

rsv@Mark:4:22 @ For there is nothing hid, except to be made manifest; nor is anything secret, except to come to light.

rsv@Mark:4:24 @ And he said to them, "Take heed what you hear; the measure you give will be the measure you get, and still more will be given you.

rsv@Mark:4:29 @ But when the grain is ripe, at once he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come."

rsv@Mark:4:32 @ yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade."

rsv@Mark:4:35 @ On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, "Let us go across to the other side."

rsv@Mark:5:1 @ They came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Ger'asenes.

rsv@Mark:5:2 @ And when he had come out of the boat, there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

rsv@Mark:5:7 @ and crying out with a loud voice, he said, "What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, do not torment me."

rsv@Mark:5:8 @ For he had said to him, "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!"

rsv@Mark:5:9 @ And Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" He replied, "My name is Legion; for we are many."

rsv@Mark:5:13 @ So he gave them leave. And the unclean spirits came out, and entered the swine; and the herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and were drowned in the sea.

rsv@Mark:5:14 @ The herdsmen fled, and told it in the city and in the country. And people came to see what it was that had happened.

rsv@Mark:5:15 @ And they came to Jesus, and saw the demoniac sitting there, clothed and in his right mind, the man who had had the legion; and they were afraid.

rsv@Mark:5:19 @ But he refused, and said to him, "Go home to your friends, and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you."

rsv@Mark:5:20 @ And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decap'olis how much Jesus had done for him; and all men marveled.

rsv@Mark:5:22 @ Then came one of the rulers of the synagogue, Ja'irus by name; and seeing him, he fell at his feet,

rsv@Mark:5:23 @ and besought him, saying, "My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and lay your hands on her, so that she may be made well, and live."

rsv@Mark:5:27 @ She had heard the reports about Jesus, and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his garment.

rsv@Mark:5:28 @ For she said, "If I touch even his garments, I shall be made well."

rsv@Mark:5:29 @ And immediately the hemorrhage ceased; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease.

rsv@Mark:5:30 @ And Jesus, perceiving in himself that power had gone forth from him, immediately turned about in the crowd, and said, "Who touched my garments?"

rsv@Mark:5:31 @ And his disciples said to him, "You see the crowd pressing around you, and yet you say, `Who touched me?'"

rsv@Mark:5:33 @ But the woman, knowing what had been done to her, came in fear and trembling and fell down before him, and told him the whole truth.

rsv@Mark:5:35 @ While he was still speaking, there came from the ruler's house some who said, "Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?"

rsv@Mark:5:37 @ And he allowed no one to follow him except Peter and James and John the brother of James.

rsv@Mark:5:38 @ When they came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, he saw a tumult, and people weeping and wailing loudly.

rsv@Mark:5:41 @ Taking her by the hand he said to her, "Tal'itha cu'mi"; which means, "Little girl, I say to you, arise."

rsv@Mark:5:42 @ And immediately the girl got up and walked (she was twelve years of age), and they were immediately overcome with amazement.

rsv@Mark:5:43 @ And he strictly charged them that no one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat.

rsv@Mark:6:1 @ He went away from there and came to his own country; and his disciples followed him.

rsv@Mark:6:3 @ Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon, and are not his sisters here with us?" And they took offense at him.

rsv@Mark:6:12 @ So they went out and preached that men should repent.

rsv@Mark:6:14 @ King Herod heard of it; for Jesus' name had become known. Some said, "John the baptizer has been raised from the dead; that is why these powers are at work in him."

rsv@Mark:6:21 @ But an opportunity came when Herod on his birthday gave a banquet for his courtiers and officers and the leading men of Galilee.

rsv@Mark:6:22 @ For when Hero'di-as' daughter came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests; and the king said to the girl, "Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will grant it."

rsv@Mark:6:23 @ And he vowed to her, "Whatever you ask me, I will give you, even half of my kingdom."

rsv@Mark:6:25 @ And she came in immediately with haste to the king, and asked, saying, "I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter."

rsv@Mark:6:27 @ And immediately the king sent a soldier of the guard and gave orders to bring his head. He went and beheaded him in the prison,

rsv@Mark:6:29 @ When his disciples heard of it, they came and took his body, and laid it in a tomb.

rsv@Mark:6:31 @ And he said to them, "Come away by yourselves to a lonely place, and rest a while." For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat.

rsv@Mark:6:35 @ And when it grew late, his disciples came to him and said, "This is a lonely place, and the hour is now late;

rsv@Mark:6:36 @ send them away, to go into the country and villages round about and buy themselves something to eat."

rsv@Mark:6:37 @ But he answered them, "You give them something to eat." And they said to him, "Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread, and give it to them to eat?"

rsv@Mark:6:44 @ And those who ate the loaves were five thousand men.

rsv@Mark:6:45 @ Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, to Beth-sa'ida, while he dismissed the crowd.

rsv@Mark:6:47 @ And when evening came, the boat was out on the sea, and he was alone on the land.

rsv@Mark:6:48 @ And he saw that they were making headway painfully, for the wind was against them. And about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. He meant to pass by them,

rsv@Mark:6:50 @ for they all saw him, and were terrified. But immediately he spoke to them and said, "Take heart, it is I; have no fear."

rsv@Mark:6:53 @ And when they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennes'aret, and moored to the shore.

rsv@Mark:6:54 @ And when they got out of the boat, immediately the people recognized him,

rsv@Mark:6:56 @ And wherever he came, in villages, cities, or country, they laid the sick in the market places, and besought him that they might touch even the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched it were made well.

rsv@Mark:7:1 @ Now when the Pharisees gathered together to him, with some of the scribes, who had come from Jerusalem,

rsv@Mark:7:2 @ they saw that some of his disciples ate with hands defiled, that is, unwashed.

rsv@Mark:7:4 @ and when they come from the market place, they do not eat unless they purify themselves; and there are many other traditions which they observe, the washing of cups and pots and vessels of bronze.)

rsv@Mark:7:6 @ And he said to them, "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, `This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me;

rsv@Mark:7:7 @ in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.'

rsv@Mark:7:8 @ You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men."

rsv@Mark:7:9 @ And he said to them, "You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!

rsv@Mark:7:11 @ but you say, `If a man tells his father or his mother, What you would have gained from me is Corban' (that is, given to God)--

rsv@Mark:7:14 @ And he called the people to him again, and said to them, "Hear me, all of you, and understand:

rsv@Mark:7:15 @ there is nothing outside a man which by going into him can defile him; but the things which come out of a man are what defile him."

rsv@Mark:7:19 @ And he said, "What comes out of a man is what defiles a man.

rsv@Mark:7:20 @ For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, fornication, theft, murder, adultery,

rsv@Mark:7:22 @ All these evil things come from within, and they defile a man."

rsv@Mark:7:24 @ But immediately a woman, whose little daughter was possessed by an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell down at his feet.

rsv@Mark:7:29 @ And she went home, and found the child lying in bed, and the demon gone.

rsv@Mark:7:31 @ And they brought to him a man who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech; and they besought him to lay his hand upon him.

rsv@Mark:7:35 @ And he charged them to tell no one; but the more he charged them, the more zealously they proclaimed it.

rsv@Mark:7:36 @ And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, "He has done all things well; he even makes the deaf hear and the dumb speak."

rsv@Mark:8:2 @ "I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been with me now three days, and have nothing to eat;

rsv@Mark:8:3 @ and if I send them away hungry to their homes, they will faint on the way; and some of them have come a long way."

rsv@Mark:8:4 @ And his disciples answered him, "How can one feed these men with bread here in the desert?"

rsv@Mark:8:10 @ And he sent them away; and immediately he got into the boat with his disciples, and went to the district of Dalmanu'tha.

rsv@Mark:8:11 @ The Pharisees came and began to argue with him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, to test him.

rsv@Mark:8:18 @ Having eyes do you not see, and having ears do you not hear? And do you not remember?

rsv@Mark:8:22 @ And they came to Beth-sa'ida. And some people brought to him a blind man, and begged him to touch him.

rsv@Mark:8:24 @ And he looked up and said, "I see men; but they look like trees, walking."

rsv@Mark:8:26 @ And he sent him away to his home, saying, "Do not even enter the village."

rsv@Mark:8:27 @ And Jesus went on with his disciples, to the villages of Caesare'a Philip'pi; and on the way he asked his disciples, "Who do men say that I am?"

rsv@Mark:8:33 @ But turning and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter, and said, "Get behind me, Satan! For you are not on the side of God, but of men."

rsv@Mark:8:34 @ And he called to him the multitude with his disciples, and said to them, "If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

rsv@Mark:8:38 @ For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of man also be ashamed, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels."

rsv@Mark:9:1 @ And he said to them, "Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see that the kingdom of God has come with power."

rsv@Mark:9:2 @ And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John, and led them up a high mountain apart by themselves; and he was transfigured before them,

rsv@Mark:9:3 @ and his garments became glistening, intensely white, as no fuller on earth could bleach them.

rsv@Mark:9:7 @ And a cloud overshadowed them, and a voice came out of the cloud, "This is my beloved Son; listen to him."

rsv@Mark:9:10 @ So they kept the matter to themselves, questioning what the rising from the dead meant.

rsv@Mark:9:11 @ And they asked him, "Why do the scribes say that first Eli'jah must come?"

rsv@Mark:9:12 @ And he said to them, "Eli'jah does come first to restore all things; and how is it written of the Son of man, that he should suffer many things and be treated with contempt?

rsv@Mark:9:13 @ But I tell you that Eli'jah has come, and they did to him whatever they pleased, as it is written of him."

rsv@Mark:9:14 @ And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd about them, and scribes arguing with them.

rsv@Mark:9:15 @ And immediately all the crowd, when they saw him, were greatly amazed, and ran up to him and greeted him.

rsv@Mark:9:18 @ and wherever it seizes him, it dashes him down; and he foams and grinds his teeth and becomes rigid; and I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they were not able."

rsv@Mark:9:19 @ And he answered them, "O faithless generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him to me."

rsv@Mark:9:20 @ And they brought the boy to him; and when the spirit saw him, immediately it convulsed the boy, and he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.

rsv@Mark:9:24 @ Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, "I believe; help my unbelief!"

rsv@Mark:9:25 @ And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "You dumb and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again."

rsv@Mark:9:26 @ And after crying out and convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like a corpse; so that most of them said, "He is dead."

rsv@Mark:9:31 @ for he was teaching his disciples, saying to them, "The Son of man will be delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him; and when he is killed, after three days he will rise."

rsv@Mark:9:33 @ And they came to Caper'na-um; and when he was in the house he asked them, "What were you discussing on the way?"

rsv@Mark:9:37 @ "Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not me but him who sent me."

rsv@Mark:9:38 @ John said to him, "Teacher, we saw a man casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he was not following us."

rsv@Mark:9:39 @ But Jesus said, "Do not forbid him; for no one who does a mighty work in my name will be able soon after to speak evil of me.

rsv@Mark:10:2 @ And Pharisees came up and in order to test him asked, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?"

rsv@Mark:10:5 @ But Jesus said to them, "For your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment.

rsv@Luke:6:46 @ "Why do you call me `Lord, Lord,' and not do what I tell you?

rsv@Luke:6:47 @ Every one who comes to me and hears my words and does them, I will show you what he is like:

rsv@Luke:7:3 @ When he heard of Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and heal his slave.

rsv@Luke:7:4 @ And when they came to Jesus, they besought him earnestly, saying, "He is worthy to have you do this for him,

rsv@Luke:7:6 @ And Jesus went with them. When he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, "Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy to have you come under my roof;

rsv@Luke:7:7 @ therefore I did not presume to come to you. But say the word, and let my servant be healed.

rsv@Luke:7:8 @ For I am a man set under authority, with soldiers under me: and I say to one, `Go,' and he goes; and to another, `Come,' and he comes; and to my slave, `Do this,' and he does it."

rsv@Luke:7:14 @ And he came and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still. And he said, "Young man, I say to you, arise."

rsv@Luke:7:19 @ And John, calling to him two of his disciples, sent them to the Lord, saying, "Are you he who is to come, or shall we look for another?"

rsv@Luke:7:20 @ And when the men had come to him, they said, "John the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, `Are you he who is to come, or shall we look for another?'"

rsv@Luke:7:22 @ And he answered them, "Go and tell John what you have seen and heard: the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have good news preached to them.

rsv@Luke:7:23 @ And blessed is he who takes no offense at me."

rsv@Luke:7:24 @ When the messengers of John had gone, he began to speak to the crowds concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to behold? A reed shaken by the wind?

rsv@Luke:7:27 @ This is he of whom it is written, `Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.'

rsv@Luke:7:28 @ I tell you, among those born of women none is greater than John; yet he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he."

rsv@Luke:7:31 @ "To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like?

rsv@Luke:7:33 @ For John the Baptist has come eating no bread and drinking no wine; and you say, `He has a demon.'

rsv@Luke:7:34 @ The Son of man has come eating and drinking; and you say, `Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!'

rsv@Luke:7:37 @ And behold, a woman of the city, who was a sinner, when she learned that he was at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of ointment,

rsv@Luke:7:38 @ and standing behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

rsv@Luke:7:40 @ And Jesus answering said to him, "Simon, I have something to say to you." And he answered, "What is it, Teacher?"

rsv@Luke:7:44 @ Then turning toward the woman he said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I entered your house, you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.

rsv@Luke:7:45 @ You gave me no kiss, but from the time I came in she has not ceased to kiss my feet.

rsv@Luke:7:46 @ You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.

rsv@Luke:8:2 @ and also some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary, called Mag'dalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,

rsv@Luke:8:3 @ and Joan'na, the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who provided for them out of their means.

rsv@Luke:8:4 @ And when a great crowd came together and people from town after town came to him, he said in a parable:

rsv@Luke:8:5 @ "A sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell along the path, and was trodden under foot, and the birds of the air devoured it.

rsv@Luke:8:6 @ And some fell on the rock; and as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.

rsv@Luke:8:7 @ And some fell among thorns; and the thorns grew with it and choked it.

rsv@Luke:8:8 @ And some fell into good soil and grew, and yielded a hundredfold." As he said this, he called out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."

rsv@Luke:8:9 @ And when his disciples asked him what this parable meant,

rsv@Luke:8:12 @ The ones along the path are those who have heard; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, that they may not believe and be saved.

rsv@Luke:8:13 @ And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy; but these have no root, they believe for a while and in time of temptation fall away.

rsv@Luke:8:17 @ For nothing is hid that shall not be made manifest, nor anything secret that shall not be known and come to light.

rsv@Luke:8:19 @ Then his mother and his brothers came to him, but they could not reach him for the crowd.

rsv@Luke:8:23 @ and as they sailed he fell asleep. And a storm of wind came down on the lake, and they were filling with water, and were in danger.

rsv@Luke:8:27 @ And as he stepped out on land, there met him a man from the city who had demons; for a long time he had worn no clothes, and he lived not in a house but among the tombs.

rsv@Luke:8:28 @ When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him, and said with a loud voice, "What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beseech you, do not torment me."

rsv@Luke:8:29 @ For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. (For many a time it had seized him; he was kept under guard, and bound with chains and fetters, but he broke the bonds and was driven by the demon into the desert.)

rsv@Luke:8:30 @ Jesus then asked him, "What is your name?" And he said, "Legion"; for many demons had entered him.

rsv@Luke:8:33 @ Then the demons came out of the man and entered the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.

rsv@Luke:8:34 @ When the herdsmen saw what had happened, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country.

rsv@Luke:8:35 @ Then people went out to see what had happened, and they came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

rsv@Luke:8:39 @ "Return to your home, and declare how much God has done for you." And he went away, proclaiming throughout the whole city how much Jesus had done for him.

rsv@Luke:8:40 @ Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.

rsv@Luke:8:41 @ And there came a man named Ja'irus, who was a ruler of the synagogue; and falling at Jesus' feet he besought him to come to his house,

rsv@Luke:8:44 @ came up behind him, and touched the fringe of his garment; and immediately her flow of blood ceased.

rsv@Luke:8:45 @ And Jesus said, "Who was it that touched me?" When all denied it, Peter said, "Master, the multitudes surround you and press upon you!"

rsv@Luke:8:46 @ But Jesus said, "Some one touched me; for I perceive that power has gone forth from me."

rsv@Luke:8:47 @ And when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared in the presence of all the people why she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed.

rsv@Luke:8:49 @ While he was still speaking, a man from the ruler's house came and said, "Your daughter is dead; do not trouble the Teacher any more."

rsv@Luke:8:51 @ And when he came to the house, he permitted no one to enter with him, except Peter and John and James, and the father and mother of the child.

rsv@Luke:8:55 @ And her spirit returned, and she got up at once; and he directed that something should be given her to eat.

rsv@Luke:9:7 @ Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done, and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had been raised from the dead,

rsv@Luke:9:8 @ by some that Eli'jah had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen.

rsv@Luke:9:11 @ When the crowds learned it, they followed him; and he welcomed them and spoke to them of the kingdom of God, and cured those who had need of healing.

rsv@Luke:9:12 @ Now the day began to wear away; and the twelve came and said to him, "Send the crowd away, to go into the villages and country round about, to lodge and get provisions; for we are here in a lonely place."

rsv@Luke:9:13 @ But he said to them, "You give them something to eat." They said, "We have no more than five loaves and two fish--unless we are to go and buy food for all these people."

rsv@Luke:9:14 @ For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, "Make them sit down in companies, about fifty each."

rsv@Luke:9:23 @ And he said to all, "If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.

rsv@Luke:9:26 @ For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of man be ashamed when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.

rsv@Luke:9:27 @ But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God."

rsv@Luke:9:28 @ Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up on the mountain to pray.

rsv@Luke:9:29 @ And as he was praying, the appearance of his countenance was altered, and his raiment became dazzling white.

rsv@Luke:9:30 @ And behold, two men talked with him, Moses and Eli'jah,

rsv@Luke:9:32 @ Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, and when they wakened they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him.

rsv@Luke:9:33 @ And as the men were parting from him, Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is well that we are here; let us make three booths, one for you and one for Moses and one for Eli'jah"--not knowing what he said.

rsv@Luke:9:34 @ As he said this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.

rsv@Luke:9:35 @ And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is my Son, my Chosen; listen to him!"

rsv@Luke:9:37 @ On the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great crowd met him.

rsv@Luke:9:44 @ "Let these words sink into your ears; for the Son of man is to be delivered into the hands of men."

rsv@Luke:9:46 @ And an argument arose among them as to which of them was the greatest.

rsv@Luke:9:48 @ and said to them, "Whoever receives this child in my name receives me, and whoever receives me receives him who sent me; for he who is least among you all is the one who is great."

rsv@Luke:9:49 @ John answered, "Master, we saw a man casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us."

rsv@Luke:9:52 @ And he sent messengers ahead of him, who went and entered a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him;

rsv@Luke:9:54 @ And when his disciples James and John saw it, they said, "Lord, do you want us to bid fire come down from heaven and consume them?"

rsv@Luke:9:59 @ To another he said, "Follow me." But he said, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father."

rsv@Luke:9:61 @ Another said, "I will follow you, Lord; but let me first say farewell to those at my home."

rsv@Luke:10:1 @ After this the Lord appointed seventy others, and sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to come.

rsv@Luke:10:7 @ And remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for the laborer deserves his wages; do not go from house to house.

rsv@Luke:10:9 @ heal the sick in it and say to them, `The kingdom of God has come near to you.'

rsv@Luke:10:11 @ `Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet, we wipe off against you; nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near.'

rsv@Luke:10:14 @ But it shall be more tolerable in the judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you.

rsv@Luke:10:16 @ "He who hears you hears me, and he who rejects you rejects me, and he who rejects me rejects him who sent me."

rsv@Luke:10:17 @ The seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!"

rsv@Luke:10:20 @ Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven."

rsv@Luke:10:21 @ In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, "I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes; yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will.

rsv@Luke:10:22 @ All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, or who the Father is except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him."

rsv@Luke:10:32 @ So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.

rsv@Luke:10:33 @ But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was; and when he saw him, he had compassion,

rsv@Luke:10:35 @ And the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, `Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.'

rsv@Luke:10:37 @ He said, "The one who showed mercy on him." And Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise."

rsv@Luke:10:38 @ Now as they went on their way, he entered a village; and a woman named Martha received him into her house.

rsv@Luke:10:40 @ But Martha was distracted with much serving; and she went to him and said, "Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me."

rsv@Luke:11:2 @ And he said to them, "When you pray, say: "Father, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come.

rsv@Luke:11:5 @ And he said to them, "Which of you who has a friend will go to him at midnight and say to him, `Friend, lend me three loaves;

rsv@Luke:11:7 @ and he will answer from within, `Do not bother me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot get up and give you anything'?

rsv@Luke:11:15 @ But some of them said, "He casts out demons by Be-el'zebul, the prince of demons";

rsv@Luke:11:20 @ But if it is by the finger of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

rsv@Luke:11:21 @ When a strong man, fully armed, guards his own palace, his goods are in peace;

rsv@Luke:11:22 @ but when one stronger than he assails him and overcomes him, he takes away his armor in which he trusted, and divides his spoil.

rsv@Luke:11:23 @ He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.

rsv@Luke:11:24 @ "When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest; and finding none he says, `I will return to my house from which I came.'

rsv@Luke:11:25 @ And when he comes he finds it swept and put in order.

rsv@Luke:11:26 @ Then he goes and brings seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first."

rsv@Luke:11:30 @ For as Jonah became a sign to the men of Nin'eveh, so will the Son of man be to this generation.

rsv@Luke:11:31 @ The queen of the South will arise at 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, something greater than Solomon is here.

rsv@Luke:11:32 @ The men of Nin'eveh will arise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.

rsv@Luke:11:44 @ Woe to you! for you are like graves which are not seen, and men walk over them without knowing it."

rsv@Luke:11:46 @ And he said, "Woe to you lawyers also! for you load men with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.

rsv@Luke:11:49 @ Therefore also the Wisdom of God said, `I will send them prophets and apostles, some of whom they will kill and persecute,'

rsv@Luke:11:54 @ lying in wait for him, to catch at something he might say.

rsv@Luke:12:1 @ In the meantime, when so many thousands of the multitude had gathered together that they trod upon one another, he began to say to his disciples first, "Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

rsv@Luke:12:3 @ Therefore whatever you have said in the dark shall be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in private rooms shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.

rsv@Luke:12:13 @ One of the multitude said to him, "Teacher, bid my brother divide the inheritance with me."

rsv@Luke:12:14 @ But he said to him, "Man, who made me a judge or divider over you?"

rsv@Luke:12:19 @ And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; take your ease, eat, drink, be merry.'

rsv@Luke:12:28 @ But if God so clothes the grass which is alive in the field today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O men of little faith!

rsv@Luke:13:13 @ And he laid his hands upon her, and immediately she was made straight, and she praised God.

rsv@Luke:13:14 @ But the ruler of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus had healed on the sabbath, said to the people, "There are six days on which work ought to be done; come on those days and be healed, and not on the sabbath day."

rsv@Luke:16:21 @ who desired to be fed with what fell from the rich man's table; moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

rsv@Luke:16:23 @ and in Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes, and saw Abraham far off and Laz'arus in his bosom.

rsv@Luke:16:24 @ And he called out, `Father Abraham, have mercy upon me, and send Laz'arus to dip the end of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am in anguish in this flame.'

rsv@Luke:16:25 @ But Abraham said, `Son, remember that you in your lifetime received your good things, and Laz'arus in like manner evil things; but now he is comforted here, and you are in anguish.

rsv@Luke:16:28 @ for I have five brothers, so that he may warn them, lest they also come into this place of torment.'

rsv@Luke:16:30 @ And he said, `No, father Abraham; but if some one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.'

rsv@Luke:16:31 @ He said to him, `If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be convinced if some one should rise from the dead.'"

rsv@Luke:17:1 @ And he said to his disciples, "Temptations to sin are sure to come; but woe to him by whom they come!

rsv@Luke:17:4 @ and if he sins against you seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, and says, `I repent,' you must forgive him."

rsv@Luke:17:7 @ "Will any one of you, who has a servant plowing or keeping sheep, say to him when he has come in from the field, `Come at once and sit down at table'?

rsv@Luke:17:8 @ Will he not rather say to him, `Prepare supper for me, and gird yourself and serve me, till I eat and drink; and afterward you shall eat and drink'?

rsv@Luke:17:12 @ And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers, who stood at a distance

rsv@Luke:17:13 @ and lifted up their voices and said, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on us."

rsv@Luke:17:27 @ They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.

rsv@Luke:17:31 @ On that day, let him who is on the housetop, with his goods in the house, not come down to take them away; and likewise let him who is in the field not turn back.

rsv@Luke:17:32 @ Remember Lot's wife.

rsv@Luke:17:35 @ There will be two women grinding together; one will be taken and the other left."

rsv@Luke:18:3 @ and there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, `Vindicate me against my adversary.'

rsv@Luke:18:5 @ yet because this widow bothers me, I will vindicate her, or she will wear me out by her continual coming.'"

rsv@Luke:18:8 @ I tell you, he will vindicate them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man comes, will he find faith on earth?"

rsv@Luke:18:9 @ He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and despised others:

rsv@Luke:18:10 @ "Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.

rsv@Luke:18:11 @ The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, `God, I thank thee that I am not like other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.

rsv@Luke:18:13 @ But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, `God, be merciful to me a sinner!'

rsv@Luke:18:16 @ But Jesus called them to him, saying, "Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them; for to such belongs the kingdom of God.

rsv@Luke:18:19 @ And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone.

rsv@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 mother.'"

rsv@Luke:18:22 @ And when Jesus heard it, he said to him, "One thing you still lack. Sell all that you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me."

rsv@Luke:18:23 @ But when he heard this he became sad, for he was very rich.

rsv@Luke:18:25 @ For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

rsv@Luke:18:27 @ But he said, "What is impossible with men is possible with God."

rsv@Luke:18:28 @ And Peter said, "Lo, we have left our homes and followed you."

rsv@Luke:18:30 @ who will not receive manifold more in this time, and in the age to come eternal life."

rsv@Luke:18:32 @ For he will be delivered to the Gentiles, and will be mocked and shamefully treated and spit upon;

rsv@Luke:18:36 @ and hearing a multitude going by, he inquired what this meant.

rsv@Luke:18:38 @ And he cried, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"

rsv@Luke:18:39 @ And those who were in front rebuked him, telling him to be silent; but he cried out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"

rsv@Luke:18:40 @ And Jesus stopped, and commanded him to be brought to him; and when he came near, he asked him,

rsv@Luke:18:41 @ "What do you want me to do for you?" He said, "Lord, let me receive my sight."

rsv@Luke:18:43 @ And immediately he received his sight and followed him, glorifying God; and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.

rsv@Luke:19:2 @ And there was a man named Zacchae'us; he was a chief tax collector, and rich.

rsv@Luke:19:5 @ And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, "Zacchae'us, make haste and come down; for I must stay at your house today."

rsv@Luke:19:6 @ So he made haste and came down, and received him joyfully.

rsv@Luke:19:9 @ And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham.

rsv@Luke:19:10 @ For the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost."

rsv@Luke:19:11 @ As they heard these things, he proceeded to tell a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem, and because they supposed that the kingdom of God was to appear immediately.

rsv@Luke:19:13 @ Calling ten of his servants, he gave them ten pounds, and said to them, `Trade with these till I come.'

rsv@Luke:19:16 @ The first came before him, saying, `Lord, your pound has made ten pounds more.'

rsv@Luke:19:18 @ And the second came, saying, `Lord, your pound has made five pounds.'

rsv@Luke:19:20 @ Then another came, saying, `Lord, here is your pound, which I kept laid away in a napkin;

rsv@Luke:19:27 @ But as for these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them before me.'"

rsv@Luke:19:35 @ And they brought it to Jesus, and throwing their garments on the colt they set Jesus upon it.

rsv@Luke:19:36 @ And as he rode along, they spread their garments on the road.

rsv@Luke:19:38 @ saying, "Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"

rsv@Luke:19:39 @ And some of the Pharisees in the multitude said to him, "Teacher, rebuke your disciples."

rsv@Luke:19:43 @ For the days shall come upon you, when your enemies will cast up a bank about you and surround you, and hem you in on every side,

rsv@Luke:19:44 @ and dash you to the ground, you and your children within you, and they will not leave one stone upon another in you; because you did not know the time of your visitation."

rsv@Luke:19:47 @ And he was teaching daily in the temple. The chief priests and the scribes and the principal men of the people sought to destroy him;

rsv@Luke:20:1 @ One day, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes with the elders came up

rsv@Luke:20:3 @ He answered them, "I also will ask you a question; now tell me,

rsv@Luke:20:4 @ Was the baptism of John from heaven or from men?"

rsv@Luke:20:6 @ But if we say, `From men,' all the people will stone us; for they are convinced that John was a prophet."

rsv@Luke:20:10 @ When the time came, he sent a servant to the tenants, that they should give him some of the fruit of the vineyard; but the tenants beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.

rsv@Luke:20:11 @ And he sent another servant; him also they beat and treated shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.

rsv@Luke:20:16 @ He will come and destroy those tenants, and give the vineyard to others." When they heard this, they said, "God forbid!"

rsv@Luke:20:17 @ But he looked at them and said, "What then is this that is written: `The very stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner'?

rsv@Luke:20:24 @ "Show me a coin. Whose likeness and inscription has it?" They said, "Caesar's."

rsv@Luke:20:27 @ There came to him some Sadducees, those who say that there is no resurrection,

rsv@Luke:20:39 @ And some of the scribes answered, "Teacher, you have spoken well."

rsv@Luke:21:5 @ And as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorned with noble stones and offerings, he said,

rsv@Luke:21:6 @ "As for these things which you see, the days will come when there shall not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down."

rsv@Luke:21:8 @ And he said, "Take heed that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name, saying, `I am he!' and, `The time is at hand!' Do not go after them.

rsv@Luke:21:12 @ But before all this they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name's sake.

rsv@Luke:21:38 @ And early in the morning all the people came to him in the temple to hear him.

rsv@Luke:22:7 @ Then came the day of Unleavened Bread, on which the passover lamb had to be sacrificed.

rsv@Luke:22:10 @ He said to them, "Behold, when you have entered the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you; follow him into the house which he enters,

rsv@Luke:22:18 @ for I tell you that from now on I shall not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes."

rsv@Luke:22:19 @ And he took bread, and when he had given thanks he broke it and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me."

rsv@Luke:22:21 @ But behold the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.

rsv@Luke:22:26 @ But not so with you; rather let the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves.

rsv@Luke:22:39 @ And he came out, and went, as was his custom, to the Mount of Olives; and the disciples followed him.

rsv@Luke:22:40 @ And when he came to the place he said to them, "Pray that you may not enter into temptation."

rsv@Luke:22:42 @ "Father, if thou art willing, remove this cup from me; nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done."

rsv@Luke:22:43 @ And when he rose from prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow,

rsv@Luke:22:45 @ While he was still speaking, there came a crowd, and the man called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He drew near to Jesus to kiss him;

rsv@Luke:22:50 @ Then Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders, who had come out against him, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

rsv@Luke:22:51 @ When I was with you day after day in the temple, you did not lay hands on me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness."

rsv@Luke:22:56 @ And a little later some one else saw him and said, "You also are one of them." But Peter said, "Man, I am not."

rsv@Luke:22:58 @ But Peter said, "Man, I do not know what you are saying." And immediately, while he was still speaking, the cock crowed.

rsv@Luke:22:59 @ And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, "Before the cock crows today, you will deny me three times."

rsv@Luke:22:61 @ Now the men who were holding Jesus mocked him and beat him;

rsv@Luke:22:64 @ When day came, the assembly of the elders of the people gathered together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led him away to their council, and they said,

rsv@Luke:23:4 @ And Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, "I find no crime in this man."

rsv@Luke:23:7 @ And when he learned that he belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him over to Herod, who was himself in Jerusalem at that time.

rsv@Luke:23:8 @ When Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, for he had long desired to see him, because he had heard about him, and he was hoping to see some sign done by him.

rsv@Luke:23:9 @ So he questioned him at some length; but he made no answer.

rsv@Luke:23:10 @ The chief priests and the scribes stood by, vehemently accusing him.

rsv@Luke:23:12 @ And Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before this they had been at enmity with each other.

rsv@Luke:23:14 @ and said to them, "You brought me this man as one who was perverting the people; and after examining him before you, behold, I did not find this man guilty of any of your charges against him;

rsv@Luke:23:21 @ A third time he said to them, "Why, what evil has he done? I have found in him no crime deserving death; I will therefore chastise him and release him."

rsv@Luke:23:26 @ And there followed him a great multitude of the people, and of women who bewailed and lamented him.

rsv@Luke:23:27 @ But Jesus turning to them said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

rsv@Luke:23:32 @ And when they came to the place which is called The Skull, there they crucified him, and the criminals, one on the right and one on the left.

rsv@Luke:23:33 @ And Jesus said, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do." And they cast lots to divide his garments.

rsv@Luke:23:39 @ But the other rebuked him, saying, "Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation?

rsv@Luke:23:41 @ And he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom."

rsv@Luke:23:42 @ And he said to him, "Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise."

rsv@Luke:23:47 @ And all the multitudes who assembled to see the sight, when they saw what had taken place, returned home beating their breasts.

rsv@Luke:23:48 @ And all his acquaintances and the women who had followed him from Galilee stood at a distance and saw these things.

rsv@Luke:23:49 @ Now there was a man named Joseph from the Jewish town of Arimathe'a. He was a member of the council, a good and righteous man,

rsv@Luke:23:54 @ The women who had come with him from Galilee followed, and saw the tomb, and how his body was laid;

rsv@Luke:23:55 @ then they returned, and prepared spices and ointments. On the sabbath they rested according to the commandment.

rsv@Luke:24:4 @ While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel;

rsv@Luke:24:5 @ and as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, "Why do you seek the living among the dead?

rsv@Luke:24:6 @ Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee,

rsv@Luke:24:7 @ that the Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise."

rsv@Luke:24:8 @ And they remembered his words,

rsv@Luke:24:10 @ Now it was Mary Mag'dalene and Jo-an'na and Mary the mother of James and the other women with them who told this to the apostles;

rsv@Luke:24:11 @ but these words seemed to them an idle tale, and they did not believe them.

rsv@Luke:24:12 @ That very day two of them were going to a village named Emma'us, about seven miles from Jerusalem,

rsv@Luke:24:17 @ Then one of them, named Cle'opas, answered him, "Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?"

rsv@Luke:24:21 @ Moreover, some women of our company amazed us. They were at the tomb early in the morning

rsv@Luke:24:22 @ and did not find his body; and they came back saying that they had even seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.

rsv@Luke:24:23 @ Some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said; but him they did not see."

rsv@Luke:24:24 @ And he said to them, "O foolish men, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

rsv@Luke:24:32 @ And they rose that same hour and returned to Jerusalem; and they found the eleven gathered together and those who were with them,

rsv@Luke:24:38 @ See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself; handle me, and see; for a spirit has not flesh and bones as you see that I have."

rsv@Luke:24:42 @ Then he said to them, "These are my words which I spoke to you, while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms must be fulfilled."

rsv@Luke:24:45 @ and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem.

rsv@John:1:4 @ In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

rsv@John:1:5 @ The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

rsv@John:1:6 @ There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

rsv@John:1:7 @ He came for testimony, to bear witness to the light, that all might believe through him.

rsv@John:1:8 @ He was not the light, but came to bear witness to the light.

rsv@John:1:11 @ He came to his own home, and his own people received him not.

rsv@John:1:12 @ But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God;

rsv@John:1:14 @ And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father.

rsv@John:1:15 @ (John bore witness to him, and cried, "This was he of whom I said, `He who comes after me ranks before me, for he was before me.'")

rsv@John:1:17 @ For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

rsv@John:1:27 @ even he who comes after me, the thong of whose sandal I am not worthy to untie."

rsv@John:1:30 @ This is he of whom I said, `After me comes a man who ranks before me, for he was before me.'

rsv@John:1:31 @ I myself did not know him; but for this I came baptizing with water, that he might be revealed to Israel."

rsv@John:1:33 @ I myself did not know him; but he who sent me to baptize with water said to me, `He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, this is he who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.'

rsv@John:1:38 @ Jesus turned, and saw them following, and said to them, "What do you seek?" And they said to him, "Rabbi" (which means Teacher), "where are you staying?"

rsv@John:1:39 @ He said to them, "Come and see." They came and saw where he was staying; and they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

rsv@John:1:41 @ He first found his brother Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (which means Christ).

rsv@John:1:42 @ He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him, and said, "So you are Simon the son of John? You shall be called Cephas" (which means Peter).

rsv@John:1:43 @ The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. And he found Philip and said to him, "Follow me."

rsv@John:1:46 @ Nathan'a-el said to him, "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."

rsv@John:1:48 @ Nathan'a-el said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."

rsv@John:2:4 @ And Jesus said to her, "O woman, what have you to do with me? My hour has not yet come."

rsv@John:2:8 @ He said to them, "Now draw some out, and take it to the steward of the feast." So they took it.

rsv@John:2:9 @ When the steward of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the steward of the feast called the bridegroom

rsv@John:2:10 @ and said to him, "Every man serves the good wine first; and when men have drunk freely, then the poor wine; but you have kept the good wine until now."

rsv@John:2:17 @ His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for thy house will consume me."

rsv@John:2:22 @ When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.

rsv@John:2:23 @ Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover feast, many believed in his name when they saw the signs which he did;

rsv@John:2:25 @ because he knew all men and needed no one to bear witness of man; for he himself knew what was in man.

rsv@John:3:1 @ Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicode'mus, a ruler of the Jews.

rsv@John:3:2 @ This man came to Jesus by night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that you do, unless God is with him."

rsv@John:3:4 @ Nicode'mus said to him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?"

rsv@John:3:8 @ The wind blows where it wills, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know whence it comes or whither it goes; so it is with every one who is born of the Spirit."

rsv@John:3:18 @ He who believes in him is not condemned; he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

rsv@John:3:19 @ And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

rsv@John:3:20 @ For every one who does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.

rsv@John:3:21 @ But he who does what is true comes to the light, that it may be clearly seen that his deeds have been wrought in God.

rsv@John:3:23 @ John also was baptizing at Ae'non near Salim, because there was much water there; and people came and were baptized.

rsv@John:3:26 @ And they came to John, and said to him, "Rabbi, he who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you bore witness, here he is, baptizing, and all are going to him."

rsv@John:3:28 @ You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but I have been sent before him.

rsv@John:3:31 @ He who comes from above is above all; he who is of the earth belongs to the earth, and of the earth he speaks; he who comes from heaven is above all.

rsv@John:3:34 @ For he whom God has sent utters the words of God, for it is not by measure that he gives the Spirit;

rsv@John:4:5 @ So he came to a city of Samar'ia, called Sy'char, near the field that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

rsv@John:4:7 @ There came a woman of Samar'ia to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give me a drink."

rsv@John:4:9 @ The Samaritan woman said to him, "How is it that you, a Jew, ask a drink of me, a woman of Samar'ia?" For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

rsv@John:4:10 @ Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, `Give me a drink,' you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water."

rsv@John:4:14 @ but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst; the water that I shall give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life."

rsv@John:4:15 @ The woman said to him, "Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw."

rsv@John:4:16 @ Jesus said to her, "Go, call your husband, and come here."

rsv@John:4:20 @ Our fathers worshiped on this mountain; and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship."

rsv@John:4:21 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

rsv@John:4:25 @ The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ); when he comes, he will show us all things."

rsv@John:4:27 @ Just then his disciples came. They marveled that he was talking with a woman, but none said, "What do you wish?" or, "Why are you talking with her?"

rsv@John:4:29 @ "Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?"

rsv@John:4:31 @ Meanwhile the disciples besought him, saying, "Rabbi, eat."

rsv@John:4:34 @ Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to accomplish his work.

rsv@John:4:35 @ Do you not say, `There are yet four months, then comes the harvest'? I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see how the fields are already white for harvest.

rsv@John:4:39 @ Many Samaritans from that city believed in him because of the woman's testimony, "He told me all that I ever did."

rsv@John:4:40 @ So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them; and he stayed there two days.

rsv@John:4:45 @ So when he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, having seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the feast, for they too had gone to the feast.

rsv@John:4:46 @ So he came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And at Caper'na-um there was an official whose son was ill.

rsv@John:4:47 @ When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went and begged him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

rsv@John:4:49 @ The official said to him, "Sir, come down before my child dies."

rsv@John:4:51 @ As he was going down, his servants met him and told him that his son was living.

rsv@John:4:52 @ So he asked them the hour when he began to mend, and they said to him, "Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him."

rsv@John:4:54 @ This was now the second sign that Jesus did when he had come from Judea to Galilee.

rsv@John:5:3 @ In these lay a multitude of invalids, blind, lame, paralyzed.

rsv@John:5:5 @ When Jesus saw him and knew that he had been lying there a long time, he said to him, "Do you want to be healed?"

rsv@John:5:6 @ The sick man answered him, "Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is troubled, and while I am going another steps down before me."

rsv@John:5:10 @ But he answered them, "The man who healed me said to me, `Take up your pallet, and walk.'"

rsv@John:5:21 @ The Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son,

rsv@John:5:23 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me, has eternal life; he does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.

rsv@John:5:26 @ and has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man.

rsv@John:5:28 @ and come forth, those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.

rsv@John:5:29 @ "I can do nothing on my own authority; as I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me.

rsv@John:5:31 @ there is another who bears witness to me, and I know that the testimony which he bears to me is true.

rsv@John:5:35 @ But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father has granted me to accomplish, these very works which I am doing, bear me witness that the Father has sent me.

rsv@John:5:36 @ And the Father who sent me has himself borne witness to me. His voice you have never heard, his form you have never seen;

rsv@John:5:38 @ You search the scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness to me;

rsv@John:5:39 @ yet you refuse to come to me that you may have life.

rsv@John:5:40 @ I do not receive glory from men.

rsv@John:5:42 @ I have come in my Father's name, and you do not receive me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive.

rsv@John:5:43 @ How can you believe, who receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?

rsv@John:5:45 @ If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote of me.

rsv@John:6:10 @ Jesus said, "Make the people sit down." Now there was much grass in the place; so the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

rsv@John:6:12 @ And when they had eaten their fill, he told his disciples, "Gather up the fragments left over, that nothing may be lost."

rsv@John:6:13 @ So they gathered them up and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves, left by those who had eaten.

rsv@John:6:14 @ When the people saw the sign which he had done, they said, "This is indeed the prophet who is to come into the world!"

rsv@John:6:15 @ Perceiving then that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, Jesus withdrew again to the mountain by himself.

rsv@John:6:16 @ When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,

rsv@John:6:17 @ got into a boat, and started across the sea to Caper'na-um. It was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.

rsv@John:6:21 @ Then they were glad to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.

rsv@John:6:23 @ However, boats from Tiber'i-as came near the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.

rsv@John:6:25 @ When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, "Rabbi, when did you come here?"

rsv@John:6:26 @ Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves.

rsv@John:6:33 @ For the bread of God is that which comes down from heaven, and gives life to the world."

rsv@John:6:35 @ Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; he who comes to me shall not hunger, and he who believes in me shall never thirst.

rsv@John:6:36 @ But I said to you that you have seen me and yet do not believe.

rsv@John:6:37 @ All that the Father gives me will come to me; and him who comes to me I will not cast out.

rsv@John:6:38 @ For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me;

rsv@John:6:39 @ and this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day.

rsv@John:6:41 @ The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, "I am the bread which came down from heaven."

rsv@John:6:42 @ They said, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does he now say, `I have come down from heaven'?"

rsv@John:6:44 @ No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day.

rsv@John:6:45 @ It is written in the prophets, `And they shall all be taught by God.' Every one who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me.

rsv@John:6:50 @ This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that a man may eat of it and not die.

rsv@John:6:51 @ I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if any one eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh."

rsv@John:6:56 @ He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him.

rsv@John:6:57 @ As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me.

rsv@John:6:58 @ This is the bread which came down from heaven, not such as the fathers ate and died; he who eats this bread will live for ever."

rsv@John:6:64 @ But there are some of you that do not believe." For Jesus knew from the first who those were that did not believe, and who it was that would betray him.

rsv@John:6:65 @ And he said, "This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father."

rsv@John:6:69 @ and we have believed, and have come to know, that you are the Holy One of God."

rsv@John:7:6 @ Jesus said to them, "My time has not yet come, but your time is always here.

rsv@John:7:7 @ The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify of it that its works are evil.

rsv@John:7:8 @ Go to the feast yourselves; I am not going up to this feast, for my time has not yet fully come."

rsv@John:7:12 @ And there was much muttering about him among the people. While some said, "He is a good man," others said, "No, he is leading the people astray."

rsv@John:7:16 @ So Jesus answered them, "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me;

rsv@John:7:19 @ Did not Moses give you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law. Why do you seek to kill me?"

rsv@John:7:23 @ If on the sabbath a man receives circumcision, so that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because on the sabbath I made a man's whole body well?

rsv@John:7:24 @ Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment."

rsv@John:7:25 @ Some of the people of Jerusalem therefore said, "Is not this the man whom they seek to kill?

rsv@John:7:27 @ Yet we know where this man comes from; and when the Christ appears, no one will know where he comes from."

rsv@John:7:28 @ So Jesus proclaimed, as he taught in the temple, "You know me, and you know where I come from? But I have not come of my own accord; he who sent me is true, and him you do not know.

rsv@John:7:29 @ I know him, for I come from him, and he sent me."

rsv@John:7:30 @ So they sought to arrest him; but no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.

rsv@John:7:33 @ Jesus then said, "I shall be with you a little longer, and then I go to him who sent me;

rsv@John:7:34 @ you will seek me and you will not find me; where I am you cannot come."

rsv@John:7:36 @ What does he mean by saying, `You will seek me and you will not find me,' and, `Where I am you cannot come'?"

rsv@John:7:37 @ On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and proclaimed, "If any one thirst, let him come to me and drink.

rsv@John:7:38 @ He who believes in me, as the scripture has said, `Out of his heart shall flow rivers of living water.'"

rsv@John:7:40 @ When they heard these words, some of the people said, "This is really the prophet."

rsv@John:7:41 @ Others said, "This is the Christ." But some said, "Is the Christ to come from Galilee?

rsv@John:7:42 @ Has not the scripture said that the Christ is descended from David, and comes from Bethlehem, the village where David was?"

rsv@John:7:44 @ Some of them wanted to arrest him, but no one laid hands on him.

rsv@John:8:2 @ Early in the morning he came again to the temple; all the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them.

rsv@John:8:6 @ This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground.

rsv@John:8:12 @ Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world; he who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

rsv@John:8:14 @ Jesus answered, "Even if I do bear witness to myself, my testimony is true, for I know whence I have come and whither I am going, but you do not know whence I come or whither I am going.

rsv@John:8:16 @ Yet even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for it is not I alone that judge, but I and he who sent me.

rsv@John:8:17 @ In your law it is written that the testimony of two men is true;

rsv@John:8:18 @ I bear witness to myself, and the Father who sent me bears witness to me."

rsv@John:8:19 @ They said to him therefore, "Where is your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither me nor my Father; if you knew me, you would know my Father also."

rsv@John:8:20 @ These words he spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple; but no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.

rsv@John:8:21 @ Again he said to them, "I go away, and you will seek me and die in your sin; where I am going, you cannot come."

rsv@John:8:22 @ Then said the Jews, "Will he kill himself, since he says, `Where I am going, you cannot come'?"

rsv@John:8:26 @ I have much to say about you and much to judge; but he who sent me is true, and I declare to the world what I have heard from him."

rsv@John:8:28 @ So Jesus said, "When you have lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own authority but speak thus as the Father taught me.

rsv@John:8:29 @ And he who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what is pleasing to him."

rsv@John:8:37 @ I know that you are descendants of Abraham; yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.

rsv@John:8:40 @ but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth which I heard from God; this is not what Abraham did.

rsv@John:8:42 @ Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I proceeded and came forth from God; I came not of my own accord, but he sent me.

rsv@John:8:45 @ But, because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.

rsv@John:8:46 @ Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?

rsv@John:8:49 @ Jesus answered, "I have not a demon; but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.

rsv@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.

rsv@John:9:4 @ We must work the works of him who sent me, while it is day; night comes, when no one can work.

rsv@John:9:7 @ saying to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Silo'am" (which means Sent). So he went and washed and came back seeing.

rsv@John:9:9 @ Some said, "It is he"; others said, "No, but he is like him." He said, "I am the man."

rsv@John:9:11 @ He answered, "The man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and said to me, `Go to Silo'am and wash'; so I went and washed and received my sight."

rsv@John:9:13 @ They brought to the Pharisees the man who had formerly been blind.

rsv@John:9:16 @ Some of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, for he does not keep the sabbath." But others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" There was a division among them.

rsv@John:9:24 @ So for the second time they called the man who had been blind, and said to him, "Give God the praise; we know that this man is a sinner."

rsv@John:9:27 @ He answered them, "I have told you already, and you would not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you too want to become his disciples?"

rsv@John:9:29 @ We know that God has spoken to Moses, but as for this man, we do not know where he comes from."

rsv@John:9:30 @ The man answered, "Why, this is a marvel! You do not know where he comes from, and yet he opened my eyes.

rsv@John:9:39 @ Jesus said, "For judgment I came into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind."

rsv@John:9:40 @ Some of the Pharisees near him heard this, and they said to him, "Are we also blind?"

rsv@John:10:3 @ To him the gatekeeper opens; the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.

rsv@John:10:8 @ All who came before me are thieves and robbers; but the sheep did not heed them.

rsv@John:10:9 @ I am the door; if any one enters by me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.

rsv@John:10:10 @ The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.

rsv@John:10:14 @ I am the good shepherd; I know my own and my own know me,

rsv@John:10:15 @ as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep.

rsv@John:10:17 @ For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.

rsv@John:10:18 @ No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again; this charge I have received from my Father."

rsv@John:10:25 @ Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness to me;

rsv@John:10:27 @ My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me;

rsv@John:10:29 @ My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand.

rsv@John:10:32 @ Jesus answered them, "I have shown you many good works from the Father; for which of these do you stone me?"

rsv@John:10:35 @ If he called them gods to whom the word of God came (and scripture cannot be broken),

rsv@John:10:37 @ If I am not doing the works of my Father, then do not believe me;

rsv@John:10:38 @ but if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father."

rsv@John:10:41 @ And many came to him; and they said, "John did no sign, but everything that John said about this man was true."

rsv@John:11:2 @ It was Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Laz'arus was ill.

rsv@John:11:4 @ But when Jesus heard it he said, "This illness is not unto death; it is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified by means of it."

rsv@John:11:13 @ Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he meant taking rest in sleep.

rsv@John:11:17 @ Now when Jesus came, he found that Laz'arus had already been in the tomb four days.

rsv@John:11:19 @ and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother.

rsv@John:11:20 @ When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, while Mary sat in the house.

rsv@John:11:25 @ Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live,

rsv@John:11:26 @ and whoever lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?"

rsv@John:11:30 @ Now Jesus had not yet come to the village, but was still in the place where Martha had met him.

rsv@John:11:32 @ Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was and saw him, fell at his feet, saying to him, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."

rsv@John:11:33 @ When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled;

rsv@John:11:34 @ and he said, "Where have you laid him?" They said to him, "Lord, come and see."

rsv@John:11:37 @ But some of them said, "Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?"

rsv@John:11:38 @ Then Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb; it was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

rsv@John:11:39 @ Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Lord, by this time there will be an odor, for he has been dead four days."

rsv@John:11:41 @ So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, "Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.

rsv@John:11:42 @ I knew that thou hearest me always, but I have said this on account of the people standing by, that they may believe that thou didst send me."

rsv@John:11:43 @ When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, "Laz'arus, come out."

rsv@John:11:44 @ The dead man came out, his hands and feet bound with bandages, and his face wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go."

rsv@John:11:45 @ Many of the Jews therefore, who had come with Mary and had seen what he did, believed in him;

rsv@John:11:46 @ but some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.

rsv@John:11:48 @ If we let him go on thus, every one will believe in him, and the Romans will come and destroy both our holy place and our nation."

rsv@John:11:56 @ They were looking for Jesus and saying to one another as they stood in the temple, "What do you think? That he will not come to the feast?"

rsv@John:12:1 @ Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Laz'arus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.

rsv@John:12:3 @ Mary took a pound of costly ointment of pure nard and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.

rsv@John:12:5 @ "Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?"

rsv@John:12:8 @ The poor you always have with you, but you do not always have me."

rsv@John:12:9 @ When the great crowd of the Jews learned that he was there, they came, not only on account of Jesus but also to see Laz'arus, whom he had raised from the dead.

rsv@John:12:12 @ The next day a great crowd who had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.

rsv@John:12:13 @ So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, crying, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!"

rsv@John:12:16 @ His disciples did not understand this at first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that this had been written of him and had been done to him.

rsv@John:12:18 @ The reason why the crowd went to meet him was that they heard he had done this sign.

rsv@John:12:20 @ Now among those who went up to worship at the feast were some Greeks.

rsv@John:12:21 @ So these came to Philip, who was from Beth-sa'ida in Galilee, and said to him, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus."

rsv@John:12:23 @ And Jesus answered them, "The hour has come for the Son of man to be glorified.

rsv@John:12:26 @ If any one serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there shall my servant be also; if any one serves me, the Father will honor him.

rsv@John:12:27 @ "Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? `Father, save me from this hour'? No, for this purpose I have come to this hour.

rsv@John:12:28 @ Father, glorify thy name." Then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again."

rsv@John:12:30 @ Jesus answered, "This voice has come for your sake, not for mine.

rsv@John:12:31 @ Now is the judgment of this world, now shall the ruler of this world be cast out;

rsv@John:12:32 @ and I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself."

rsv@John:12:36 @ While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light." When Jesus had said this, he departed and hid himself from them.

rsv@John:12:40 @ "He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes and perceive with their heart, and turn for me to heal them."

rsv@John:12:43 @ for they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

rsv@John:12:44 @ And Jesus cried out and said, "He who believes in me, believes not in me but in him who sent me.

rsv@John:12:45 @ And he who sees me sees him who sent me.

rsv@John:12:46 @ I have come as light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness.

rsv@John:12:47 @ If any one hears my sayings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.

rsv@John:12:48 @ He who rejects me and does not receive my sayings has a judge; the word that I have spoken will be his judge on the last day.

rsv@John:12:49 @ For I have not spoken on my own authority; the Father who sent me has himself given me commandment what to say and what to speak.

rsv@John:12:50 @ And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I say, therefore, I say as the Father has bidden me."

rsv@John:13:1 @ Now before the feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

rsv@John:13:3 @ Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he had come from God and was going to God,

rsv@John:13:4 @ rose from supper, laid aside his garments, and girded himself with a towel.

rsv@John:13:6 @ He came to Simon Peter; and Peter said to him, "Lord, do you wash my feet?"

rsv@John:13:8 @ Peter said to him, "You shall never wash my feet." Jesus answered him, "If I do not wash you, you have no part in me."

rsv@John:13:12 @ When he had washed their feet, and taken his garments, and resumed his place, he said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you?

rsv@John:13:13 @ You call me Teacher and Lord; and you are right, for so I am.

rsv@John:13:18 @ I am not speaking of you all; I know whom I have chosen; it is that the scripture may be fulfilled, `He who ate my bread has lifted his heel against me.'

rsv@John:13:20 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, he who receives any one whom I send receives me; and he who receives me receives him who sent me."

rsv@John:13:21 @ When Jesus had thus spoken, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, "Truly, truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me."

rsv@John:13:29 @ Some thought that, because Judas had the money box, Jesus was telling him, "Buy what we need for the feast"; or, that he should give something to the poor.

rsv@John:13:30 @ So, after receiving the morsel, he immediately went out; and it was night.

rsv@John:13:33 @ Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You will seek me; and as I said to the Jews so now I say to you, `Where I am going you cannot come.'

rsv@John:13:34 @ A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

rsv@John:13:35 @ By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another."

rsv@John:13:36 @ Simon Peter said to him, "Lord, where are you going?" Jesus answered, "Where I am going you cannot follow me now; but you shall follow afterward."

rsv@John:13:38 @ Jesus answered, "Will you lay down your life for me? Truly, truly, I say to you, the cock will not crow, till you have denied me three times.

rsv@John:14:1 @ "Let not your hearts be troubled; believe in God, believe also in me.

rsv@John:14:3 @ And when I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

rsv@John:14:6 @ Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me.

rsv@John:14:7 @ If you had known me, you would have known my Father also; henceforth you know him and have seen him."

rsv@John:14:9 @ Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and yet you do not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father; how can you say, `Show us the Father'?

rsv@John:14:10 @ Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority; but the Father who dwells in me does his works.

rsv@John:14:31 @ but I do as the Father has commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go hence.

rsv@John:15:4 @ Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.

rsv@John:15:5 @ I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

rsv@John:15:6 @ If a man does not abide in me, he is cast forth as a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire and burned.

rsv@John:15:7 @ If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.

rsv@John:15:9 @ As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love.

rsv@John:15:10 @ If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.

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

rsv@John:15:16 @ You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

rsv@John:15:18 @ "If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.

rsv@John:15:20 @ Remember the word that I said to you, `A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also.

rsv@John:15:21 @ But all this they will do to you on my account, because they do not know him who sent me.

rsv@John:15:22 @ If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.

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

rsv@John:15:24 @ If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have seen and hated both me and my Father.

rsv@John:16:7 @ Nevertheless I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

rsv@John:16:8 @ And when he comes, he will convince the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment:

rsv@John:16:9 @ concerning sin, because they do not believe in me;

rsv@John:16:10 @ concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no more;

rsv@John:16:11 @ concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.

rsv@John:16:13 @ When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth; for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.

rsv@John:16:24 @ Hitherto you have asked nothing in my name; ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.

rsv@John:16:26 @ In that day you will ask in my name; and I do not say to you that I shall pray the Father for you;

rsv@John:18:2 @ Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place; for Jesus often met there with his disciples.

rsv@John:18:3 @ So Judas, procuring a band of soldiers and some officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, went there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

rsv@John:18:4 @ Then Jesus, knowing all that was to befall him, came forward and said to them, "Whom do you seek?"

rsv@John:18:8 @ Jesus answered, "I told you that I am he; so, if you seek me, let these men go."

rsv@John:18:9 @ This was to fulfil the word which he had spoken, "Of those whom thou gavest me I lost not one."

rsv@John:18:11 @ Jesus said to Peter, "Put your sword into its sheath; shall I not drink the cup which the Father has given me?"

rsv@John:18:20 @ Jesus answered him, "I have spoken openly to the world; I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together; I have said nothing secretly.

rsv@John:18:21 @ Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me, what I said to them; they know what I said."

rsv@John:18:23 @ Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken wrongly, bear witness to the wrong; but if I have spoken rightly, why do you strike me?"

rsv@John:18:34 @ Jesus answered, "Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?"

rsv@John:18:35 @ Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have handed you over to me; what have you done?"

rsv@John:18:37 @ Pilate said to him, "So you are a king?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this I was born, and for this I have come into the world, to bear witness to the truth. Every one who is of the truth hears my voice."

rsv@John:18:38 @ Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" After he had said this, he went out to the Jews again, and told them, "I find no crime in him.

rsv@John:18:39 @ But you have a custom that I should release one man for you at the Passover; will you have me release for you the King of the Jews?"

rsv@John:19:3 @ they came up to him, saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!" and struck him with their hands.

rsv@John:19:4 @ Pilate went out again, and said to them, "See, I am bringing him out to you, that you may know that I find no crime in him."

rsv@John:19:5 @ So Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate said to them, "Behold the man!"

rsv@John:19:6 @ When the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, "Crucify him, crucify him!" Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no crime in him."

rsv@John:19:10 @ Pilate therefore said to him, "You will not speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, and power to crucify you?"

rsv@John:19:11 @ Jesus answered him, "You would have no power over me unless it had been given you from above; therefore he who delivered me to you has the greater sin."

rsv@John:19:13 @ When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called The Pavement, and in Hebrew, Gab'batha.

rsv@John:19:23 @ When the soldiers had crucified Jesus they took his garments and made four parts, one for each soldier; also his tunic. But the tunic was without seam, woven from top to bottom;

rsv@John:19:24 @ so they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to see whose it shall be." This was to fulfil the scripture, "They parted my garments among them, and for my clothing they cast lots."

rsv@John:19:27 @ Then he said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother!" And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.

rsv@John:19:32 @ So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who had been crucified with him;

rsv@John:19:33 @ but when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.

rsv@John:19:34 @ But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once there came out blood and water.

rsv@John:19:38 @ After this Joseph of Arimathe'a, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him leave. So he came and took away his body.

rsv@John:19:39 @ Nicode'mus also, who had at first come to him by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds' weight.

rsv@John:20:1 @ Now on the first day of the week Mary Mag'dalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.

rsv@John:20:3 @ Peter then came out with the other disciple, and they went toward the tomb.

rsv@John:20:6 @ Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb; he saw the linen cloths lying,

rsv@John:20:10 @ Then the disciples went back to their homes.

rsv@John:20:15 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom do you seek?" Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away."

rsv@John:20:16 @ Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and said to him in Hebrew, "Rab-bo'ni!" (which means Teacher).

rsv@John:20:17 @ Jesus said to her, "Do not hold me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God."

rsv@John:20:19 @ On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the doors being shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you."

rsv@John:20:21 @ Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you."

rsv@John:20:24 @ Now Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came.

rsv@John:20:26 @ Eight days later, his disciples were again in the house, and Thomas was with them. The doors were shut, but Jesus came and stood among them, and said, "Peace be with you."

rsv@John:20:29 @ Jesus said to him, "Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe."

rsv@John:20:31 @ but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.

rsv@John:21:6 @ He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, for the quantity of fish.

rsv@John:21:8 @ But the other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land, but about a hundred yards off.

rsv@John:21:10 @ Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish that you have just caught."

rsv@John:21:12 @ Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast." Now none of the disciples dared ask him, "Who are you?" They knew it was the Lord.

rsv@John:21:13 @ Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and so with the fish.

rsv@John:21:14 @ This was now the third time that Jesus was revealed to the disciples after he was raised from the dead.

rsv@John:21:15 @ When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, 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."

rsv@John:21:16 @ A second time he said to him, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love you." He said to him, "Tend my sheep."

rsv@John:21:17 @ He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, "Do you love me?" And he said to him, "Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you." Jesus said to him, "Feed my sheep.

rsv@John:21:19 @ (This he said to show by what death he was to glorify God.) And after this he said to him, "Follow me."

rsv@John:21:23 @ The saying spread abroad among the brethren that this disciple was not to die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he was not to die, but, "If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you?"

rsv@Acts:1:2 @ until the day when he was taken up, after he had given commandment through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.

rsv@Acts:1:4 @ And while staying with them he charged them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, he said, "you heard from me,

rsv@Acts:5:28 @ saying, "We strictly charged you not to teach in this name, yet here you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and you intend to bring this man's blood upon us."

rsv@Acts:5:36 @ For before these days Theu'das arose, giving himself out to be somebody, and a number of men, about four hundred, joined him; but he was slain and all who followed him were dispersed and came to nothing.

rsv@Acts:5:37 @ After him Judas the Galilean arose in the days of the census and drew away some of the people after him; he also perished, and all who followed him were scattered.

rsv@Acts:5:38 @ So in the present case I tell you, keep away from these men and let them alone; for if this plan or this undertaking is of men, it will fail;

rsv@Acts:5:40 @ So they took his advice, and when they had called in the apostles, they beat them and charged them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.

rsv@Acts:5:42 @ And every day in the temple and at home they did not cease teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ.

rsv@Acts:6:3 @ Therefore, brethren, pick out from among you seven men of good repute, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may appoint to this duty.

rsv@Acts:6:5 @ And what they said pleased the whole multitude, and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Proch'orus, and Nica'nor, and Ti'mon, and Par'menas, and Nicola'us, a proselyte of Antioch.

rsv@Acts:7:2 @ And Stephen said: "Brethren and fathers, hear me. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopota'mia, before he lived in Haran,

rsv@Acts:7:7 @ `But I will judge the nation which they serve,' said God, `and after that they shall come out and worship me in this place.'

rsv@Acts:7:8 @ And he gave him the covenant of circumcision. And so Abraham became the father of Isaac, and circumcised him on the eighth day; and Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob of the twelve patriarchs.

rsv@Acts:7:12 @ But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent forth our fathers the first time.

rsv@Acts:7:28 @ Do you want to kill me as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?'

rsv@Acts:7:29 @ At this retort Moses fled, and became an exile in the land of Mid'ian, where he became the father of two sons.

rsv@Acts:8:31 @ And he said, "How can I, unless some one guides me?" And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him.

rsv@Acts:8:34 @ And the eunuch said to Philip, "About whom, pray, does the prophet say this, about himself or about some one else?"

rsv@Acts:8:36 @ And as they went along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, "See, here is water! What is to prevent my being baptized?"

rsv@Acts:8:38 @ And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught up Philip; and the eunuch saw him no more, and went on his way rejoicing.

rsv@Acts:8:39 @ But Philip was found at Azo'tus, and passing on he preached the gospel to all the towns till he came to Caesare'a.

rsv@Acts:9:4 @ And he fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?"

rsv@Acts:9:7 @ The men who were traveling with him stood speechless, hearing the voice but seeing no one.

rsv@Acts:9:10 @ Now there was a disciple at Damascus named Anani'as. The Lord said to him in a vision, "Anani'as." And he said, "Here I am, Lord."

rsv@Acts:9:11 @ And the Lord said to him, "Rise and go to the street called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for a man of Tarsus named Saul; for behold, he is praying,

rsv@Acts:9:14 @ and here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call upon thy name."

rsv@Acts:9:15 @ But the Lord said to him, "Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel;

rsv@Acts:9:20 @ And in the synagogues immediately he proclaimed Jesus, saying, "He is the Son of God."

rsv@Acts:9:21 @ And all who heard him were amazed, and said, "Is not this the man who made havoc in Jerusalem of those who called on this name? And he has come here for this purpose, to bring them bound before the chief priests."

rsv@Acts:9:24 @ but their plot became known to Saul. They were watching the gates day and night, to kill him;

rsv@Acts:9:26 @ And when he had come to Jerusalem he attempted to join the disciples; and they were all afraid of him, for they did not believe that he was a disciple.

rsv@Acts:9:27 @ But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared to them how on the road he had seen the Lord, who spoke to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Jesus.

rsv@Acts:9:29 @ preaching boldly in the name of the Lord. And he spoke and disputed against the Hellenists; but they were seeking to kill him.

rsv@Acts:9:32 @ Now as Peter went here and there among them all, he came down also to the saints that lived at Lydda.

rsv@Acts:9:33 @ There he found a man named Aene'as, who had been bedridden for eight years and was paralyzed.

rsv@Acts:9:34 @ And Peter said to him, "Aene'as, Jesus Christ heals you; rise and make your bed." And immediately he rose.

rsv@Acts:9:36 @ Now there was at Joppa a disciple named Tabitha, which means Dorcas. She was full of good works and acts of charity.

rsv@Acts:9:38 @ Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him entreating him, "Please come to us without delay."

rsv@Acts:9:39 @ So Peter rose and went with them. And when he had come, they took him to the upper room. All the widows stood beside him weeping, and showing tunics and other garments which Dorcas made while she was with them.

rsv@Acts:9:42 @ And it became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.

rsv@Acts:10:1 @ At Caesare'a there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion of what was known as the Italian Cohort,

rsv@Acts:10:4 @ And he stared at him in terror, and said, "What is it, Lord?" And he said to him, "Your prayers and your alms have ascended as a memorial before God.

rsv@Acts:10:5 @ And now send men to Joppa, and bring one Simon who is called Peter;

rsv@Acts:10:10 @ And he became hungry and desired something to eat; but while they were preparing it, he fell into a trance

rsv@Acts:10:11 @ and saw the heaven opened, and something descending, like a great sheet, let down by four corners upon the earth.

rsv@Acts:10:13 @ And there came a voice to him, "Rise, Peter; kill and eat."

rsv@Acts:10:15 @ And the voice came to him again a second time, "What God has cleansed, you must not call common."

rsv@Acts:10:16 @ This happened three times, and the thing was taken up at once to heaven.

rsv@Acts:10:17 @ Now while Peter was inwardly perplexed as to what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men that were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon's house, stood before the gate

rsv@Acts:10:19 @ And while Peter was pondering the vision, the Spirit said to him, "Behold, three men are looking for you.

rsv@Acts:10:21 @ And Peter went down to the men and said, "I am the one you are looking for; what is the reason for your coming?"

rsv@Acts:10:22 @ And they said, "Cornelius, a centurion, an upright and God-fearing man, who is well spoken of by the whole Jewish nation, was directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house, and to hear what you have to say."

rsv@Acts:10:23 @ So he called them in to be his guests. The next day he rose and went off with them, and some of the brethren from Joppa accompanied him.

rsv@Acts:10:24 @ And on the following day they entered Caesare'a. Cornelius was expecting them and had called together his kinsmen and close friends.

rsv@Acts:10:25 @ When Peter entered, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped him.

rsv@Acts:10:28 @ and he said to them, "You yourselves know how unlawful it is for a Jew to associate with or to visit any one of another nation; but God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

rsv@Acts:10:29 @ So when I was sent for, I came without objection. I ask then why you sent for me."

rsv@Acts:10:30 @ And Cornelius said, "Four days ago, about this hour, I was keeping the ninth hour of prayer in my house; and behold, a man stood before me in bright apparel,

rsv@Acts:10:31 @ saying, `Cornelius, your prayer has been heard and your alms have been remembered before God.

rsv@Acts:10:33 @ So I sent to you at once, and you have been kind enough to come. Now therefore we are all here present in the sight of God, to hear all that you have been commanded by the Lord."

rsv@Acts:10:37 @ the word which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism which John preached:

rsv@Acts:10:43 @ To him all the prophets bear witness that every one who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name."

rsv@Acts:10:45 @ And the believers from among the circumcised who came with Peter were amazed, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles.

rsv@Acts:10:48 @ And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to remain for some days.

rsv@Acts:11:3 @ saying, "Why did you go to uncircumcised men and eat with them?"

rsv@Acts:11:5 @ "I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, something descending, like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came down to me.

rsv@Acts:11:9 @ But the voice answered a second time from heaven, `What God has cleansed you must not call common.'

rsv@Acts:11:10 @ This happened three times, and all was drawn up again into heaven.

rsv@Acts:11:11 @ At that very moment three men arrived at the house in which we were, sent to me from Caesare'a.

rsv@Acts:11:12 @ And the Spirit told me to go with them, making no distinction. These six brethren also accompanied me, and we entered the man's house.

rsv@Acts:11:16 @ And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, `John baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'

rsv@Acts:11:22 @ News of this came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.

rsv@Acts:11:23 @ When he came and saw the grace of God, he was glad; and he exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord with steadfast purpose;

rsv@Acts:11:26 @ and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church, and taught a large company of people; and in Antioch the disciples were for the first time called Christians.

rsv@Acts:11:27 @ Now in these days prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.

rsv@Acts:11:28 @ And one of them named Ag'abus stood up and foretold by the Spirit that there would be a great famine over all the world; and this took place in the days of Claudius.

rsv@Acts:12:1 @ About that time Herod the king laid violent hands upon some who belonged to the church.

rsv@Acts:12:2 @ He killed James the brother of John with the sword;

rsv@Acts:12:8 @ And the angel said to him, "Dress yourself and put on your sandals." And he did so. And he said to him, "Wrap your mantle around you and follow me."

rsv@Acts:12:10 @ When they had passed the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate leading into the city. It opened to them of its own accord, and they went out and passed on through one street; and immediately the angel left him.

rsv@Acts:12:11 @ And Peter came to himself, and said, "Now I am sure that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting."

rsv@Acts:12:12 @ When he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose other name was Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.

rsv@Acts:12:13 @ And when he knocked at the door of the gateway, a maid named Rhoda came to answer.

rsv@Acts:12:17 @ But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, "Tell this to James and to the brethren." Then he departed and went to another place.

rsv@Acts:12:18 @ Now when day came, there was no small stir among the soldiers over what had become of Peter.

rsv@Acts:12:20 @ Now Herod was angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; and they came to him in a body, and having persuaded Blastus, the king's chamberlain, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king's country for food.

rsv@Acts:12:23 @ Immediately an angel of the Lord smote him, because he did not give God the glory; and he was eaten by worms and died.

rsv@Acts:12:25 @ And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their mission, bringing with them John whose other name was Mark.

rsv@Acts:13:1 @ Now in the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyre'ne, Man'a-en a member of the court of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

rsv@Acts:13:2 @ While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them."

rsv@Acts:13:11 @ And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you shall be blind and unable to see the sun for a time." Immediately mist and darkness fell upon him and he went about seeking people to lead him by the hand.

rsv@Acts:13:13 @ Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos, and came to Perga in Pamphyl'ia. And John left them and returned to Jerusalem;

rsv@Acts:13:14 @ but they passed on from Perga and came to Antioch of Pisid'ia. And on the sabbath day they went into the synagogue and sat down.

rsv@Acts:13:16 @ So Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said: "Men of Israel, and you that fear God, listen.

rsv@Acts:13:50 @ But the Jews incited the devout women of high standing and the leading men of the city, and stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their district.

rsv@Acts:14:3 @ So they remained for a long time, speaking boldly for the Lord, who bore witness to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

rsv@Acts:14:4 @ But the people of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews, and some with the apostles.

rsv@Acts:14:11 @ And when the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in Lycao'nian, "The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!"

rsv@Acts:14:12 @ Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul, because he was the chief speaker, they called Hermes.

rsv@Acts:14:26 @ and from there they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.

rsv@Acts:14:28 @ And they remained no little time with the disciples.

rsv@Acts:15:2 @ And when Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and debate with them, Paul and Barnabas and some of the others were appointed to go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and the elders about this question.

rsv@Acts:15:4 @ When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and the apostles and the elders, and they declared all that God had done with them.

rsv@Acts:15:5 @ But some believers who belonged to the party of the Pharisees rose up, and said, "It is necessary to circumcise them, and to charge them to keep the law of Moses."

rsv@Acts:15:13 @ After they finished speaking, James replied, "Brethren, listen to me.

rsv@Acts:16:14 @ One who heard us was a woman named Lydia, from the city of Thyati'ra, a seller of purple goods, who was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to give heed to what was said by Paul.

rsv@Acts:16:15 @ And when she was baptized, with her household, she besought us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay." And she prevailed upon us.

rsv@Acts:16:16 @ As we were going to the place of prayer, we were met by a slave girl who had a spirit of divination and brought her owners much gain by soothsaying.

rsv@Acts:16:36 @ And the jailer reported the words to Paul, saying, "The magistrates have sent to let you go; now therefore come out and go in peace."

rsv@Acts:16:37 @ But Paul said to them, "They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men who are Roman citizens, and have thrown us into prison; and do they now cast us out secretly? No! let them come themselves and take us out."

rsv@Acts:16:39 @ so they came and apologized to them. And they took them out and asked them to leave the city.

rsv@Acts:17:1 @ Now when they had passed through Amphip'olis and Apollo'nia, they came to Thessaloni'ca, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.

rsv@Acts:17:4 @ And some of them were persuaded, and joined Paul and Silas; as did a great many of the devout Greeks and not a few of the leading women.

rsv@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews were jealous, and taking some wicked fellows of the rabble, they gathered a crowd, set the city in an uproar, and attacked the house of Jason, seeking to bring them out to the people.

rsv@Acts:17:6 @ And when they could not find them, they dragged Jason and some of the brethren before the city authorities, crying, "These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also,

rsv@Acts:17:10 @ The brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Beroe'a; and when they arrived they went into the Jewish synagogue.

rsv@Acts:17:12 @ Many of them therefore believed, with not a few Greek women of high standing as well as men.

rsv@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews of Thessaloni'ca learned that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul at Beroe'a also, they came there too, stirring up and inciting the crowds.

rsv@Acts:17:14 @ Then the brethren immediately sent Paul off on his way to the sea, but Silas and Timothy remained there.

rsv@Acts:17:15 @ Those who conducted Paul brought him as far as Athens; and receiving a command for Silas and Timothy to come to him as soon as possible, they departed.

rsv@Acts:17:18 @ Some also of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers met him. And some said, "What would this babbler say?" Others said, "He seems to be a preacher of foreign divinities"--because he preached Jesus and the resurrection.

rsv@Acts:17:20 @ For you bring some strange things to our ears; we wish to know therefore what these things mean."

rsv@Acts:17:21 @ Now all the Athenians and the foreigners who lived there spent their time in nothing except telling or hearing something new.

rsv@Acts:17:22 @ So Paul, standing in the middle of the Are-op'agus, said: "Men of Athens, I perceive that in every way you are very religious.

rsv@Acts:17:25 @ nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all men life and breath and everything.

rsv@Acts:17:26 @ And he made from one every nation of men to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their habitation,

rsv@Acts:17:28 @ for `In him we live and move and have our being'; as even some of your poets have said, `For we are indeed his offspring.'

rsv@Acts:17:30 @ The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all men everywhere to repent,

rsv@Acts:17:31 @ because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and of this he has given assurance to all men by raising him from the dead."

rsv@Acts:17:32 @ Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, "We will hear you again about this."

rsv@Acts:17:34 @ But some men joined him and believed, among them Dionys'ius the Are-op'agite and a woman named Dam'aris and others with them.

rsv@Acts:18:2 @ And he found a Jew named Aq'uila, a native of Pontus, lately come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome. And he went to see them;

rsv@Acts:18:3 @ and because he was of the same trade he stayed with them, and they worked, for by trade they were tentmakers.

rsv@Acts:18:6 @ And when they opposed and reviled him, he shook out his garments and said to them, "Your blood be upon your heads! I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles."

rsv@Acts:18:7 @ And he left there and went to the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God; his house was next door to the synagogue.

rsv@Acts:18:13 @ saying, "This man is persuading men to worship God contrary to the law."

rsv@Acts:18:14 @ But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it were a matter of wrongdoing or vicious crime, I should have reason to bear with you, O Jews;

rsv@Acts:18:15 @ but since it is a matter of questions about words and names and your own law, see to it yourselves; I refuse to be a judge of these things."

rsv@Acts:18:19 @ And they came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself went into the synagogue and argued with the Jews.

rsv@Acts:18:23 @ After spending some time there he departed and went from place to place through the region of Galatia and Phryg'ia, strengthening all the disciples.

rsv@Acts:18:24 @ Now a Jew named Apol'los, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an eloquent man, well versed in the scriptures.

rsv@Acts:19:1 @ While Apol'los was at Corinth, Paul passed through the upper country and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples.

rsv@Acts:19:4 @ And Paul said, "John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, Jesus."

rsv@Acts:19:5 @ On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

rsv@Acts:19:6 @ And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

rsv@Acts:19:9 @ but when some were stubborn and disbelieved, speaking evil of the Way before the congregation, he withdrew from them, taking the disciples with him, and argued daily in the hall of Tyran'nus.

rsv@Acts:19:12 @ so that handkerchiefs or aprons were carried away from his body to the sick, and diseases left them and the evil spirits came out of them.

rsv@Acts:19:13 @ Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists undertook to pronounce the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, "I adjure you by the Jesus whom Paul preaches."

rsv@Acts:19:14 @ Seven sons of a Jewish high priest named Sceva were doing this.

rsv@Acts:19:17 @ And this became known to all residents of Ephesus, both Jews and Greeks; and fear fell upon them all; and the name of the Lord Jesus was extolled.

rsv@Acts:19:18 @ Many also of those who were now believers came, confessing and divulging their practices.

rsv@Acts:19:19 @ And a number of those who practiced magic arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all; and they counted the value of them and found it came to fifty thousand pieces of silver.

rsv@Acts:19:21 @ Now after these events Paul resolved in the Spirit to pass through Macedo'nia and Acha'ia and go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."

rsv@Acts:19:23 @ About that time there arose no little stir concerning the Way.

rsv@Acts:19:24 @ For a man named Deme'trius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Ar'temis, brought no little business to the craftsmen.

rsv@Acts:19:25 @ These he gathered together, with the workmen of like occupation, and said, "Men, you know that from this business we have our wealth.

rsv@Acts:19:27 @ And there is danger not only that this trade of ours may come into disrepute but also that the temple of the great goddess Ar'temis may count for nothing, and that she may even be deposed from her magnificence, she whom all Asia and the world worship."

rsv@Acts:19:31 @ some of the A'si-archs also, who were friends of his, sent to him and begged him not to venture into the theater.

rsv@Acts:19:32 @ Now some cried one thing, some another; for the assembly was in confusion, and most of them did not know why they had come together.

rsv@Acts:19:33 @ Some of the crowd prompted Alexander, whom the Jews had put forward. And Alexander motioned with his hand, wishing to make a defense to the people.

rsv@Acts:19:35 @ And when the town clerk had quieted the crowd, he said, "Men of Ephesus, what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple keeper of the great Ar'temis, and of the sacred stone that fell from the sky?

rsv@Acts:19:37 @ For you have brought these men here who are neither sacrilegious nor blasphemers of our goddess.

rsv@Acts:19:38 @ If therefore Deme'trius and the craftsmen with him have a complaint against any one, the courts are open, and there are proconsuls; let them bring charges against one another.

rsv@Acts:20:2 @ When he had gone through these parts and had given them much encouragement, he came to Greece.

rsv@Acts:20:6 @ but we sailed away from Philip'pi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days we came to them at Tro'as, where we stayed for seven days.

rsv@Acts:20:9 @ And a young man named Eu'tychus was sitting in the window. He sank into a deep sleep as Paul talked still longer; and being overcome by sleep, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead.

rsv@Acts:20:10 @ But Paul went down and bent over him, and embracing him said, "Do not be alarmed, for his life is in him."

rsv@Acts:20:14 @ And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and came to Mityle'ne.

rsv@Acts:20:15 @ And sailing from there we came the following day opposite Chi'os; the next day we touched at Samos; and the day after that we came to Mile'tus.

rsv@Acts:20:16 @ For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he might not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hastening to be at Jerusalem, if possible, on the day of Pentecost.

rsv@Acts:20:18 @ And when they came to him, he said to them: "You yourselves know how I lived among you all the time from the first day that I set foot in Asia,

rsv@Acts:20:19 @ serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials which befell me through the plots of the Jews;

rsv@Acts:20:22 @ And now, behold, I am going to Jerusalem, bound in the Spirit, not knowing what shall befall me there;

rsv@Acts:20:23 @ except that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city that imprisonment and afflictions await me.

rsv@Acts:20:29 @ I know that after my departure fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock;

rsv@Acts:20:30 @ and from among your own selves will arise men speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.

rsv@Acts:20:31 @ Therefore be alert, remembering that for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish every one with tears.

rsv@Acts:20:32 @ And now I commend you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

rsv@Acts:20:34 @ You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my necessities, and to those who were with me.

rsv@Acts:20:35 @ In all things I have shown you that by so toiling one must help the weak, remembering the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, `It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"

rsv@Acts:21:1 @ And when we had parted from them and set sail, we came by a straight course to Cos, and the next day to Rhodes, and from there to Pat'ara.

rsv@Acts:21:3 @ When we had come in sight of Cyprus, leaving it on the left we sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload its cargo.

rsv@Acts:21:6 @ Then we went on board the ship, and they returned home.

rsv@Acts:21:8 @ On the morrow we departed and came to Caesare'a; and we entered the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him.

rsv@Acts:21:10 @ While we were staying for some days, a prophet named Ag'abus came down from Judea.

rsv@Acts:21:13 @ Then Paul answered, "What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be imprisoned but even to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus."

rsv@Acts:21:16 @ And some of the disciples from Caesare'a went with us, bringing us to the house of Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we should lodge.

rsv@Acts:21:17 @ When we had come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.

rsv@Acts:21:18 @ On the following day Paul went in with us to James; and all the elders were present.

rsv@Acts:21:22 @ What then is to be done? They will certainly hear that you have come.

rsv@Acts:21:23 @ Do therefore what we tell you. We have four men who are under a vow;

rsv@Acts:21:24 @ take these men and purify yourself along with them and pay their expenses, so that they may shave their heads. Thus all will know that there is nothing in what they have been told about you but that you yourself live in observance of the law.

rsv@Acts:21:25 @ But as for the Gentiles who have believed, we have sent a letter with our judgment that they should abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols and from blood and from what is strangled and from unchastity."

rsv@Acts:21:26 @ Then Paul took the men, and the next day he purified himself with them and went into the temple, to give notice when the days of purification would be fulfilled and the offering presented for every one of them.

rsv@Acts:21:28 @ crying out, "Men of Israel, help! This is the man who is teaching men everywhere against the people and the law and this place; moreover he also brought Greeks into the temple, and he has defiled this holy place."

rsv@Acts:21:31 @ And as they were trying to kill him, word came to the tribune of the cohort that all Jerusalem was in confusion.

rsv@Acts:21:33 @ Then the tribune came up and arrested him, and ordered him to be bound with two chains. He inquired who he was and what he had done.

rsv@Acts:21:34 @ Some in the crowd shouted one thing, some another; and as he could not learn the facts because of the uproar, he ordered him to be brought into the barracks.

rsv@Acts:21:35 @ And when he came to the steps, he was actually carried by the soldiers because of the violence of the crowd;

rsv@Acts:21:37 @ As Paul was about to be brought into the barracks, he said to the tribune, "May I say something to you?" And he said, "Do you know Greek?

rsv@Acts:21:38 @ Are you not the Egyptian, then, who recently stirred up a revolt and led the four thousand men of the Assassins out into the wilderness?"

rsv@Acts:21:39 @ Paul replied, "I am a Jew, from Tarsus in Cili'cia, a citizen of no mean city; I beg you, let me speak to the people."

rsv@Acts:22:4 @ I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and delivering to prison both men and women,

rsv@Acts:22:5 @ as the high priest and the whole council of elders bear me witness. From them I received letters to the brethren, and I journeyed to Damascus to take those also who were there and bring them in bonds to Jerusalem to be punished.

rsv@Acts:22:6 @ "As I made my journey and drew near to Damascus, about noon a great light from heaven suddenly shone about me.

rsv@Acts:22:7 @ And I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, `Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?'

rsv@Acts:22:8 @ And I answered, `Who are you, Lord?' And he said to me, `I am Jesus of Nazareth whom you are persecuting.'

rsv@Acts:22:9 @ Now those who were with me saw the light but did not hear the voice of the one who was speaking to me.

rsv@Acts:22:10 @ And I said, `What shall I do, Lord?' And the Lord said to me, `Rise, and go into Damascus, and there you will be told all that is appointed for you to do.'

rsv@Acts:22:11 @ And when I could not see because of the brightness of that light, I was led by the hand by those who were with me, and came into Damascus.

rsv@Acts:22:13 @ came to me, and standing by me said to me, `Brother Saul, receive your sight.' And in that very hour I received my sight and saw him.

rsv@Acts:22:15 @ for you will be a witness for him to all men of what you have seen and heard.

rsv@Acts:22:16 @ And now why do you wait? Rise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on his name.'

rsv@Acts:22:18 @ and saw him saying to me, `Make haste and get quickly out of Jerusalem, because they will not accept your testimony about me.'

rsv@Acts:22:20 @ And when the blood of Stephen thy witness was shed, I also was standing by and approving, and keeping the garments of those who killed him.'

rsv@Acts:22:21 @ And he said to me, `Depart; for I will send you far away to the Gentiles.'"

rsv@Acts:22:23 @ And as they cried out and waved their garments and threw dust into the air,

rsv@Acts:22:27 @ So the tribune came and said to him, "Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?" And he said, "Yes."

rsv@Acts:22:30 @ But on the morrow, desiring to know the real reason why the Jews accused him, he unbound him, and commanded the chief priests and all the council to meet, and he brought Paul down and set him before them.

rsv@Acts:23:3 @ Then Paul said to him, "God shall strike you, you whitewashed wall! Are you sitting to judge me according to the law, and yet contrary to the law you order me to be struck?"

rsv@Acts:23:9 @ Then a great clamor arose; and some of the scribes of the Pharisees' party stood up and contended, "We find nothing wrong in this man. What if a spirit or an angel spoke to him?"

rsv@Acts:23:10 @ And when the dissension became violent, the tribune, afraid that Paul would be torn in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them and bring him into the barracks.

rsv@Acts:23:11 @ The following night the Lord stood by him and said, "Take courage, for as you have testified about me at Jerusalem, so you must bear witness also at Rome."

rsv@Acts:23:15 @ You therefore, along with the council, give notice now to the tribune to bring him down to you, as though you were going to determine his case more exactly. And we are ready to kill him before he comes near."

rsv@Acts:23:17 @ And Paul called one of the centurions and said, "Take this young man to the tribune; for he has something to tell him."

rsv@Acts:23:18 @ So he took him and brought him to the tribune and said, "Paul the prisoner called me and asked me to bring this young man to you, as he has something to say to you."

rsv@Acts:23:19 @ The tribune took him by the hand, and going aside asked him privately, "What is it that you have to tell me?"

rsv@Acts:23:20 @ And he said, "The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down to the council tomorrow, as though they were going to inquire somewhat more closely about him.

rsv@Acts:23:21 @ But do not yield to them; for more than forty of their men lie in ambush for him, having bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink till they have killed him; and now they are ready, waiting for the promise from you."

rsv@Acts:23:22 @ So the tribune dismissed the young man, charging him, "Tell no one that you have informed me of this."

rsv@Acts:23:23 @ Then he called two of the centurions and said, "At the third hour of the night get ready two hundred soldiers with seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen to go as far as Caesare'a.

rsv@Acts:23:27 @ This man was seized by the Jews, and was about to be killed by them, when I came upon them with the soldiers and rescued him, having learned that he was a Roman citizen.

rsv@Acts:23:29 @ I found that he was accused about questions of their law, but charged with nothing deserving death or imprisonment.

rsv@Acts:23:30 @ And when it was disclosed to me that there would be a plot against the man, I sent him to you at once, ordering his accusers also to state before you what they have against him."

rsv@Acts:23:32 @ And on the morrow they returned to the barracks, leaving the horsemen to go on with him.

rsv@Acts:23:33 @ When they came to Caesare'a and delivered the letter to the governor, they presented Paul also before him.

rsv@Acts:24:1 @ And after five days the high priest Anani'as came down with some elders and a spokesman, one Tertul'lus. They laid before the governor their case against Paul;

rsv@Acts:24:11 @ and they did not find me disputing with any one or stirring up a crowd, either in the temple or in the synagogues, or in the city.

rsv@Acts:24:12 @ Neither can they prove to you what they now bring up against me.

rsv@Acts:24:15 @ So I always take pains to have a clear conscience toward God and toward men.

rsv@Acts:24:16 @ Now after some years I came to bring to my nation alms and offerings.

rsv@Acts:24:17 @ As I was doing this, they found me purified in the temple, without any crowd or tumult. But some Jews from Asia--

rsv@Acts:24:18 @ they ought to be here before you and to make an accusation, if they have anything against me.

rsv@Acts:24:19 @ Or else let these men themselves say what wrongdoing they found when I stood before the council,

rsv@Acts:24:21 @ But Felix, having a rather accurate knowledge of the Way, put them off, saying, "When Lys'ias the tribune comes down, I will decide your case."

rsv@Acts:24:22 @ Then he gave orders to the centurion that he should be kept in custody but should have some liberty, and that none of his friends should be prevented from attending to his needs.

rsv@Acts:24:23 @ After some days Felix came with his wife Drusil'la, who was a Jewess; and he sent for Paul and heard him speak upon faith in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Acts:24:24 @ And as he argued about justice and self-control and future judgment, Felix was alarmed and said, "Go away for the present; when I have an opportunity I will summon you."

rsv@Acts:24:25 @ At the same time he hoped that money would be given him by Paul. So he sent for him often and conversed with him.

rsv@Acts:25:1 @ Now when Festus had come into his province, after three days he went up to Jerusalem from Caesare'a.

rsv@Acts:25:2 @ And the chief priests and the principal men of the Jews informed him against Paul; and they urged him,

rsv@Acts:25:5 @ "So," said he, "let the men of authority among you go down with me, and if there is anything wrong about the man, let them accuse him."

rsv@Acts:25:7 @ And when he had come, the Jews who had gone down from Jerusalem stood about him, bringing against him many serious charges which they could not prove.

rsv@Acts:25:9 @ But Festus, wishing to do the Jews a favor, said to Paul, "Do you wish to go up to Jerusalem, and there be tried on these charges before me?"

rsv@Acts:25:11 @ If then I am a wrongdoer, and have committed anything for which I deserve to die, I do not seek to escape death; but if there is nothing in their charges against me, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar."

rsv@Acts:25:13 @ Now when some days had passed, Agrippa the king and Berni'ce arrived at Caesare'a to welcome Festus.

rsv@Acts:25:16 @ I answered them that it was not the custom of the Romans to give up any one before the accused met the accusers face to face, and had opportunity to make his defense concerning the charge laid against him.

rsv@Acts:25:17 @ When therefore they came together here, I made no delay, but on the next day took my seat on the tribunal and ordered the man to be brought in.

rsv@Acts:25:23 @ So on the morrow Agrippa and Berni'ce came with great pomp, and they entered the audience hall with the military tribunes and the prominent men of the city. Then by command of Festus Paul was brought in.

rsv@Acts:25:24 @ And Festus said, "King Agrippa and all who are present with us, you see this man about whom the whole Jewish people petitioned me, both at Jerusalem and here, shouting that he ought not to live any longer.

rsv@Acts:25:26 @ But I have nothing definite to write to my lord about him. Therefore I have brought him before you, and, especially before you, King Agrippa, that, after we have examined him, I may have something to write.

rsv@Acts:25:27 @ For it seems to me unreasonable, in sending a prisoner, not to indicate the charges against him."

rsv@Acts:26:3 @ because you are especially familiar with all customs and controversies of the Jews; therefore I beg you to listen to me patiently.

rsv@Acts:26:5 @ They have known for a long time, if they are willing to testify, that according to the strictest party of our religion I have lived as a Pharisee.

rsv@Acts:26:9 @ "I myself was convinced that I ought to do many things in opposing the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

rsv@Acts:26:11 @ And I punished them often in all the synagogues and tried to make them blaspheme; and in raging fury against them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities.

rsv@Acts:26:13 @ At midday, O king, I saw on the way a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining round me and those who journeyed with me.

rsv@Acts:26:14 @ And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, `Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? It hurts you to kick against the goads.'

rsv@Acts:26:16 @ But rise and stand upon your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you to serve and bear witness to the things in which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you,

rsv@Acts:26:18 @ to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'

rsv@Acts:26:21 @ For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple and tried to kill me.

rsv@Acts:26:22 @ To this day I have had the help that comes from God, and so I stand here testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would come to pass:

rsv@Acts:26:28 @ And Agrippa said to Paul, "In a short time you think to make me a Christian!"

rsv@Acts:26:29 @ And Paul said, "Whether short or long, I would to God that not only you but also all who hear me this day might become such as I am--except for these chains."

rsv@Acts:26:31 @ and when they had withdrawn, they said to one another, "This man is doing nothing to deserve death or imprisonment."

rsv@Acts:27:1 @ And when it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion of the Augustan Cohort, named Julius.

rsv@Acts:27:5 @ And when we had sailed across the sea which is off Cili'cia and Pamphyl'ia, we came to Myra in Ly'cia.

rsv@Acts:27:8 @ Coasting along it with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near which was the city of Lase'a.

rsv@Acts:27:9 @ As much time had been lost, and the voyage was already dangerous because the fast had already gone by, Paul advised them,

rsv@Acts:27:12 @ And because the harbor was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised to put to sea from there, on the chance that somehow they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete, looking northeast and southeast, and winter there.

rsv@Acts:27:17 @ after hoisting it up, they took measures to undergird the ship; then, fearing that they should run on the Syr'tis, they lowered the gear, and so were driven.

rsv@Acts:27:21 @ As they had been long without food, Paul then came forward among them and said, "Men, you should have listened to me, and should not have set sail from Crete and incurred this injury and loss.

rsv@Acts:27:23 @ For this very night there stood by me an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I worship,

rsv@Acts:27:25 @ So take heart, men, for I have faith in God that it will be exactly as I have been told.

rsv@Acts:27:26 @ But we shall have to run on some island."

rsv@Acts:27:27 @ When the fourteenth night had come, as we were drifting across the sea of A'dria, about midnight the sailors suspected that they were nearing land.

rsv@Acts:27:29 @ And fearing that we might run on the rocks, they let out four anchors from the stern, and prayed for day to come.

rsv@Acts:27:31 @ Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, "Unless these men stay in the ship, you cannot be saved."

rsv@Acts:27:33 @ As day was about to dawn, Paul urged them all to take some food, saying, "Today is the fourteenth day that you have continued in suspense and without food, having taken nothing.

rsv@Acts:27:34 @ Therefore I urge you to take some food; it will give you strength, since not a hair is to perish from the head of any of you."

rsv@Acts:27:36 @ Then they all were encouraged and ate some food themselves.

rsv@Acts:27:40 @ So they cast off the anchors and left them in the sea, at the same time loosening the ropes that tied the rudders; then hoisting the foresail to the wind they made for the beach.

rsv@Acts:28:2 @ And the natives showed us unusual kindness, for they kindled a fire and welcomed us all, because it had begun to rain and was cold.

rsv@Acts:28:3 @ Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and put them on the fire, when a viper came out because of the heat and fastened on his hand.

rsv@Acts:28:6 @ They waited, expecting him to swell up or suddenly fall down dead; but when they had waited a long time and saw no misfortune come to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.

rsv@Acts:28:7 @ Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us and entertained us hospitably for three days.

rsv@Acts:28:9 @ And when this had taken place, the rest of the people on the island who had diseases also came and were cured.

rsv@Acts:28:13 @ And from there we made a circuit and arrived at Rhe'gium; and after one day a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Pute'oli.

rsv@Acts:28:14 @ There we found brethren, and were invited to stay with them for seven days. And so we came to Rome.

rsv@Acts:28:15 @ And the brethren there, when they heard of us, came as far as the Forum of Ap'pius and Three Taverns to meet us. On seeing them Paul thanked God and took courage.

rsv@Acts:28:16 @ And when we came into Rome, Paul was allowed to stay by himself, with the soldier that guarded him.

rsv@Acts:28:18 @ When they had examined me, they wished to set me at liberty, because there was no reason for the death penalty in my case.

rsv@Acts:28:23 @ When they had appointed a day for him, they came to him at his lodging in great numbers. And he expounded the matter to them from morning till evening, testifying to the kingdom of God and trying to convince them about Jesus both from the law of Moses and from the prophets.

rsv@Acts:28:24 @ And some were convinced by what he said, while others disbelieved.

rsv@Acts:28:25 @ So, as they disagreed among themselves, they departed, after Paul had made one statement: "The Holy Spirit was right in saying to your fathers through Isaiah the prophet:

rsv@Acts:28:27 @ For this people's heart has grown dull, and their ears are heavy of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest they should perceive with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn for me to heal them.'

rsv@Acts:28:29 @ And he lived there two whole years at his own expense, and welcomed all who came to him,

rsv@Romans:1:5 @ through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations,

rsv@Romans:1:7 @ To all God's beloved in Rome, who are called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Romans:1:8 @ First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world.

rsv@Romans:1:9 @ For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I mention you always in my prayers,

rsv@Romans:1:10 @ asking that somehow by God's will I may now at last succeed in coming to you.

rsv@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you,

rsv@Romans:1:13 @ I want you to know, brethren, that I have often intended to come to you (but thus far have been prevented), in order that I may reap some harvest among you as well as among the rest of the Gentiles.

rsv@Romans:1:15 @ so I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.

rsv@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the gospel: it is the power of God for salvation to every one who has faith, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

rsv@Romans:1:18 @ For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and wickedness of men who by their wickedness suppress the truth.

rsv@Romans:1:20 @ Ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, namely, his eternal power and deity, has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse;

rsv@Romans:1:21 @ for although they knew God they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking and their senseless minds were darkened.

rsv@Romans:1:22 @ Claiming to be wise, they became fools,

rsv@Romans:1:25 @ because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever! Amen.

rsv@Romans:1:26 @ For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. Their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural,

rsv@Romans:1:27 @ and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in their own persons the due penalty for their error.

rsv@Romans:2:1 @ Therefore you have no excuse, O man, whoever you are, when you judge another; for in passing judgment upon him you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things.

rsv@Romans:2:2 @ We know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who do such things.

rsv@Romans:2:3 @ Do you suppose, O man, that when you judge those who do such things and yet do them yourself, you will escape the judgment of God?

rsv@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you presume upon the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not know that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?

rsv@Romans:2:5 @ But by your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed.

rsv@Romans:2:16 @ on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus.

rsv@Romans:2:20 @ a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of children, having in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth--

rsv@Romans:2:24 @ For, as it is written, "The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you."

rsv@Romans:2:25 @ Circumcision indeed is of value if you obey the law; but if you break the law, your circumcision becomes uncircumcision.

rsv@Romans:2:28 @ For he is not a real Jew who is one outwardly, nor is true circumcision something external and physical.

rsv@Romans:2:29 @ He is a Jew who is one inwardly, and real circumcision is a matter of the heart, spiritual and not literal. His praise is not from men but from God.

rsv@Romans:3:3 @ What if some were unfaithful? Does their faithlessness nullify the faithfulness of God?

rsv@Romans:3:4 @ By no means! Let God be true though every man be false, as it is written, "That thou mayest be justified in thy words, and prevail when thou art judged."

rsv@Romans:3:6 @ By no means! For then how could God judge the world?

rsv@Romans:3:8 @ And why not do evil that good may come?--as some people slanderously charge us with saying. Their condemnation is just.

rsv@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Are we Jews any better off? No, not at all; for I have already charged that all men, both Jews and Greeks, are under the power of sin,

rsv@Romans:3:20 @ For no human being will be justified in his sight by works of the law, since through the law comes knowledge of sin.

rsv@Romans:3:25 @ whom God put forward as an expiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins;

rsv@Romans:3:26 @ it was to prove at the present time that he himself is righteous and that he justifies him who has faith in Jesus.

rsv@Romans:3:27 @ Then what becomes of our boasting? It is excluded. On what principle? On the principle of works? No, but on the principle of faith.

rsv@Romans:3:31 @ Do we then overthrow the law by this faith? By no means! On the contrary, we uphold the law.

rsv@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God.

rsv@Romans:4:12 @ and likewise the father of the circumcised who are not merely circumcised but also follow the example of the faith which our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.

rsv@Romans:4:13 @ The promise to Abraham and his descendants, that they should inherit the world, did not come through the law but through the righteousness of faith.

rsv@Romans:4:18 @ In hope he believed against hope, that he should become the father of many nations; as he had been told, "So shall your descendants be."

rsv@Romans:5:6 @ While we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.

rsv@Romans:5:12 @ Therefore as sin came into the world through one man and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all men sinned--

rsv@Romans:5:14 @ Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sins were not like the transgression of Adam, who was a type of the one who was to come.

rsv@Romans:5:16 @ And the free gift is not like the effect of that one man's sin. For the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the free gift following many trespasses brings justification.

rsv@Romans:5:18 @ Then as one man's trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one man's act of righteousness leads to acquittal and life for all men.

rsv@Romans:5:20 @ Law came in, to increase the trespass; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more,

rsv@Romans:6:2 @ By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it?

rsv@Romans:6:13 @ Do not yield your members to sin as instruments of wickedness, but yield yourselves to God as men who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments of righteousness.

rsv@Romans:6:15 @ What then? Are we to sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means!

rsv@Romans:6:17 @ But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed,

rsv@Romans:6:18 @ and, having been set free from sin, have become slaves of righteousness.

rsv@Romans:6:19 @ I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once yielded your members to impurity and to greater and greater iniquity, so now yield your members to righteousness for sanctification.

rsv@Romans:6:21 @ But then what return did you get from the things of which you are now ashamed? The end of those things is death.

rsv@Romans:6:22 @ But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the return you get is sanctification and its end, eternal life.

rsv@Romans:7:5 @ While we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death.

rsv@Romans:7:7 @ What then shall we say? That the law is sin? By no means! Yet, if it had not been for the law, I should not have known sin. I should not have known what it is to covet if the law had not said, "You shall not covet."

rsv@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, finding opportunity in the commandment, wrought in me all kinds of covetousness. Apart from the law sin lies dead.

rsv@Romans:7:9 @ I was once alive apart from the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died;

rsv@Romans:7:10 @ the very commandment which promised life proved to be death to me.

rsv@Romans:7:11 @ For sin, finding opportunity in the commandment, deceived me and by it killed me.

rsv@Romans:7:12 @ So the law is holy, and the commandment is holy and just and good.

rsv@Romans:7:13 @ Did that which is good, then, bring death to me? By no means! It was sin, working death in me through what is good, in order that sin might be shown to be sin, and through the commandment might become sinful beyond measure.

rsv@Romans:7:17 @ So then it is no longer I that do it, but sin which dwells within me.

rsv@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that nothing good dwells within me, that is, in my flesh. I can will what is right, but I cannot do it.

rsv@Romans:7:20 @ Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I that do it, but sin which dwells within me.

rsv@Romans:7:23 @ but I see in my members another law at war with the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin which dwells in my members.

rsv@Romans:7:24 @ Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?

rsv@Romans:8:2 @ For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death.

rsv@Romans:8:4 @ in order that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

rsv@Romans:8:18 @ I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.

rsv@Romans:8:27 @ And he who searches the hearts of men knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

rsv@Romans:8:29 @ For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the first-born among many brethren.

rsv@Romans:8:38 @ For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,

rsv@Romans:9:1 @ I am speaking the truth in Christ, I am not lying; my conscience bears me witness in the Holy Spirit,

rsv@Romans:9:3 @ For I could wish that I myself were accursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen by race.

rsv@Romans:9:5 @ to them belong the patriarchs, and of their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ. God who is over all be blessed for ever. Amen.

rsv@Romans:9:7 @ and not all are children of Abraham because they are his descendants; but "Through Isaac shall your descendants be named."

rsv@Romans:9:8 @ This means that it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are reckoned as descendants.

rsv@Romans:9:9 @ For this is what the promise said, "About this time I will return and Sarah shall have a son."

rsv@Romans:9:14 @ What shall we say then? Is there injustice on God's part? By no means!

rsv@Romans:9:15 @ For he says to Moses, "I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion."

rsv@Romans:9:16 @ So it depends not upon man's will or exertion, but upon God's mercy.

rsv@Romans:9:17 @ For the scripture says to Pharaoh, "I have raised you up for the very purpose of showing my power in you, so that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth."

rsv@Romans:9:18 @ So then he has mercy upon whomever he wills, and he hardens the heart of whomever he wills.

rsv@Romans:9:19 @ You will say to me then, "Why does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?"

rsv@Romans:9:20 @ But who are you, a man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say to its molder, "Why have you made me thus?"

rsv@Romans:9:21 @ Has the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for beauty and another for menial use?

rsv@Romans:9:23 @ in order to make known the riches of his glory for the vessels of mercy, which he has prepared beforehand for glory,

rsv@Romans:9:33 @ as it is written, "Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone that will make men stumble, a rock that will make them fall; and he who believes in him will not be put to shame."

rsv@Romans:10:3 @ For, being ignorant of the righteousness that comes from God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness.

rsv@Romans:10:11 @ The scripture says, "No one who believes in him will be put to shame."

rsv@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; the same Lord is Lord of all and bestows his riches upon all who call upon him.

rsv@Romans:10:13 @ For, "every one who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved."

rsv@Romans:10:14 @ But how are men to call upon him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher?

rsv@Romans:10:15 @ And how can men preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach good news!"

rsv@Romans:10:17 @ So faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes by the preaching of Christ.

rsv@Romans:10:20 @ Then Isaiah is so bold as to say, "I have been found by those who did not seek me; I have shown myself to those who did not ask for me."

rsv@Romans:11:1 @ I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin.

rsv@Romans:11:4 @ But what is God's reply to him? "I have kept for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Ba'al."

rsv@Romans:11:5 @ So too at the present time there is a remnant, chosen by grace.

rsv@Romans:11:9 @ And David says, "Let their table become a snare and a trap, a pitfall and a retribution for them;

rsv@Romans:11:11 @ So I ask, have they stumbled so as to fall? By no means! But through their trespass salvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make Israel jealous.

rsv@Romans:11:12 @ Now if their trespass means riches for the world, and if their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full inclusion mean!

rsv@Romans:11:14 @ in order to make my fellow Jews jealous, and thus save some of them.

rsv@Romans:11:15 @ For if their rejection means the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance mean but life from the dead?

rsv@Romans:11:17 @ But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, were grafted in their place to share the richness of the olive tree,

rsv@Romans:11:18 @ do not boast over the branches. If you do boast, remember it is not you that support the root, but the root that supports you.

rsv@Romans:11:20 @ That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast only through faith. So do not become proud, but stand in awe.

rsv@Romans:11:25 @ Lest you be wise in your own conceits, I want you to understand this mystery, brethren: a hardening has come upon part of Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles come in,

rsv@Romans:11:26 @ and so all Israel will be saved; as it is written, "The Deliverer will come from Zion, he will banish ungodliness from Jacob";

rsv@Romans:11:30 @ Just as you were once disobedient to God but now have received mercy because of their disobedience,

rsv@Romans:11:31 @ so they have now been disobedient in order that by the mercy shown to you they also may receive mercy.

rsv@Romans:11:32 @ For God has consigned all men to disobedience, that he may have mercy upon all.

rsv@Romans:11:33 @ O the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways!

rsv@Romans:11:36 @ For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory for ever. Amen.

rsv@Romans:12:1 @ I appeal to you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.

rsv@Romans:12:2 @ Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

rsv@Romans:12:3 @ For by the grace given to me I bid every one among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith which God has assigned him.

rsv@Romans:12:4 @ For as in one body we have many members, and all the members do not have the same function,

rsv@Romans:12:5 @ so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.

rsv@Romans:12:8 @ he who exhorts, in his exhortation; he who contributes, in liberality; he who gives aid, with zeal; he who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.

rsv@Romans:12:21 @ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

rsv@Romans:13:2 @ Therefore he who resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment.

rsv@Romans:13:6 @ For the same reason you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, attending to this very thing.

rsv@Romans:13:9 @ The commandments, "You shall not commit adultery, You shall not kill, You shall not steal, You shall not covet," and any other commandment, are summed up in this sentence, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

rsv@Romans:13:11 @ Besides this you know what hour it is, how it is full time now for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed;

rsv@Romans:14:1 @ As for the man who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not for disputes over opinions.

rsv@Romans:14:3 @ Let not him who eats despise him who abstains, and let not him who abstains pass judgment on him who eats; for God has welcomed him.

rsv@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Master is able to make him stand.

rsv@Romans:14:10 @ Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God;

rsv@Romans:14:11 @ for it is written, "As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall give praise to God."

rsv@Romans:14:13 @ Then let us no more pass judgment on one another, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother.

rsv@Romans:14:18 @ he who thus serves Christ is acceptable to God and approved by men.

rsv@Romans:14:21 @ it is right not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that makes your brother stumble.

rsv@Romans:15:3 @ For Christ did not please himself; but, as it is written, "The reproaches of those who reproached thee fell on me."

rsv@Romans:15:4 @ For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that by steadfastness and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.

rsv@Romans:15:5 @ May the God of steadfastness and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus,

rsv@Romans:15:7 @ Welcome one another, therefore, as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God.

rsv@Romans:15:8 @ For I tell you that Christ became a servant to the circumcised to show God's truthfulness, in order to confirm the promises given to the patriarchs,

rsv@Romans:15:9 @ and in order that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, "Therefore I will praise thee among the Gentiles, and sing to thy name";

rsv@Romans:15:12 @ and further Isaiah says, "The root of Jesse shall come, he who rises to rule the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles hope."

rsv@Romans:15:15 @ But on some points I have written to you very boldly by way of reminder, because of the grace given me by God

rsv@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has wrought through me to win obedience from the Gentiles, by word and deed,

rsv@Romans:15:20 @ thus making it my ambition to preach the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, lest I build on another man's foundation,

rsv@Romans:15:23 @ But now, since I no longer have any room for work in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to come to you,

rsv@Romans:15:26 @ For Macedo'nia and Acha'ia have been pleased to make some contribution for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem;

rsv@Romans:15:27 @ they were pleased to do it, and indeed they are in debt to them, for if the Gentiles have come to share in their spiritual blessings, they ought also to be of service to them in material blessings.

rsv@Romans:15:29 @ and I know that when I come to you I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ.

rsv@Romans:15:30 @ I appeal to you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God on my behalf,

rsv@Romans:15:32 @ so that by God's will I may come to you with joy and be refreshed in your company.

rsv@Romans:15:33 @ The God of peace be with you all. Amen.

rsv@Romans:16:1 @ I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a deaconess of the church at Cen'chre-ae,

rsv@Romans:16:7 @ Greet Androni'cus and Ju'nias, my kinsmen and my fellow prisoners; they are men of note among the apostles, and they were in Christ before me.

rsv@Romans:16:14 @ Greet Asyn'critus, Phlegon, Hermes, Pat'robas, Hermas, and the brethren who are with them.

rsv@Romans:16:21 @ Timothy, my fellow worker, greets you; so do Lucius and Jason and Sosip'ater, my kinsmen.

rsv@Romans:16:23 @ Ga'ius, who is host to me and to the whole church, greets you. Eras'tus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus, greet you.

rsv@Romans:16:26 @ to the only wise God be glory for evermore through Jesus Christ! Amen.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:2 @ To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints together with all those who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both their Lord and ours:

rsv@1Corinthians:1:6 @ even as the testimony to Christ was confirmed among you--

rsv@1Corinthians:1:10 @ I appeal to you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree and that there be no dissensions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been reported to me by Chlo'e's people that there is quarreling among you, my brethren.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:12 @ What I mean is that each one of you says, "I belong to Paul," or "I belong to Apol'los," or "I belong to Cephas," or "I belong to Christ."

rsv@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

rsv@1Corinthians:1:15 @ lest any one should say that you were baptized in my name.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:25 @ For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:27 @ but God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong,

rsv@1Corinthians:2:1 @ When I came to you, brethren, I did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God in lofty words or wisdom.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:4 @ and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

rsv@1Corinthians:2:5 @ that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:6 @ Yet among the mature we do impart wisdom, although it is not a wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are doomed to pass away.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:1 @ But I, brethren, could not address you as spiritual men, but as men of the flesh, as babes in Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:3 @ for you are still of the flesh. For while there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not of the flesh, and behaving like ordinary men?

rsv@1Corinthians:3:4 @ For when one says, "I belong to Paul," and another, "I belong to Apol'los," are you not merely men?

rsv@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and another man is building upon it. Let each man take care how he builds upon it.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:13 @ each man's work will become manifest; for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:21 @ So let no one boast of men. For all things are yours,

rsv@1Corinthians:4:3 @ But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. I do not even judge myself.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:4 @ I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then every man will receive his commendation from God.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:8 @ Already you are filled! Already you have become rich! Without us you have become kings! And would that you did reign, so that we might share the rule with you!

rsv@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For I think that God has exhibited us apostles as last of all, like men sentenced to death; because we have become a spectacle to the world, to angels and to men.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:11 @ To the present hour we hunger and thirst, we are ill-clad and buffeted and homeless,

rsv@1Corinthians:4:13 @ when slandered, we try to conciliate; we have become, and are now, as the refuse of the world, the offscouring of all things.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write this to make you ashamed, but to admonish you as my beloved children.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:15 @ For though you have countless guides in Christ, you do not have many fathers. For I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:16 @ I urge you, then, be imitators of me.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:18 @ Some are arrogant, as though I were not coming to you.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you soon, if the Lord wills, and I will find out not the talk of these arrogant people but their power.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:21 @ What do you wish? Shall I come to you with a rod, or with love in a spirit of gentleness?

rsv@1Corinthians:5:3 @ For though absent in body I am present in spirit, and as if present, I have already pronounced judgment

rsv@1Corinthians:5:4 @ in the name of the Lord Jesus on the man who has done such a thing. When you are assembled, and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus,

rsv@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with immoral men;

rsv@1Corinthians:5:10 @ not at all meaning the immoral of this world, or the greedy and robbers, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But rather I wrote to you not to associate with any one who bears the name of brother if he is guilty of immorality or greed, or is an idolater, reviler, drunkard, or robber--not even to eat with such a one.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If then you have such cases, why do you lay them before those who are least esteemed by the church?

rsv@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to your shame. Can it be that there is no man among you wise enough to decide between members of the brotherhood,

rsv@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:12 @ "All things are lawful for me," but not all things are helpful. "All things are lawful for me," but I will not be enslaved by anything.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:13 @ "Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food"--and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:15 @ Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I therefore take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never!

rsv@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Do you not know that he who joins himself to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, "The two shall become one flesh."

rsv@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But he who is united to the Lord becomes one spirit with him.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not refuse one another except perhaps by agreement for a season, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, lest Satan tempt you through lack of self-control.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:9 @ But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to be aflame with passion.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:18 @ Was any one at the time of his call already circumcised? Let him not seek to remove the marks of circumcision. Was any one at the time of his call uncircumcised? Let him not seek circumcision.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:19 @ For neither circumcision counts for anything nor uncircumcision, but keeping the commandments of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:23 @ You were bought with a price; do not become slaves of men.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:25 @ Now concerning the unmarried, I have no command of the Lord, but I give my opinion as one who by the Lord's mercy is trustworthy.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:29 @ I mean, brethren, the appointed time has grown very short; from now on, let those who have wives live as though they had none,

rsv@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But in my judgment she is happier if she remains as she is. And I think that I have the Spirit of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:2 @ If any one imagines that he knows something, he does not yet know as he ought to know.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:7 @ However, not all possess this knowledge. But some, through being hitherto accustomed to idols, eat food as really offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:8 @ Food will not commend us to God. We are no worse off if we do not eat, and no better off if we do.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:9 @ Only take care lest this liberty of yours somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:13 @ Therefore, if food is a cause of my brother's falling, I will never eat meat, lest I cause my brother to fall.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:3 @ This is my defense to those who would examine me.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:7 @ Who serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard without eating any of its fruit? Who tends a flock without getting some of the milk?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:8 @ Do I say this on human authority? Does not the law say the same?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:14 @ In the same way, the Lord commanded that those who proclaim the gospel should get their living by the gospel.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have made no use of any of these rights, nor am I writing this to secure any such provision. For I would rather die than have any one deprive me of my ground for boasting.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:16 @ For if I preach the gospel, that gives me no ground for boasting. For necessity is laid upon me. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!

rsv@1Corinthians:9:19 @ For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a slave to all, that I might win the more.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:20 @ To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews; to those under the law I became as one under the law--though not being myself under the law--that I might win those under the law.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:21 @ To those outside the law I became as one outside the law--not being without law toward God but under the law of Christ--that I might win those outside the law.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:22 @ To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:27 @ but I pommel my body and subdue it, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:3 @ and all ate the same supernatural food

rsv@1Corinthians:10:4 @ and all drank the same supernatural drink. For they drank from the supernatural Rock which followed them, and the Rock was Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:7 @ Do not be idolaters as some of them were; as it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to dance."

rsv@1Corinthians:10:8 @ We must not indulge in immorality as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in a single day.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:9 @ We must not put the Lord to the test, as some of them did and were destroyed by serpents;

rsv@1Corinthians:10:10 @ nor grumble, as some of them did and were destroyed by the Destroyer.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now these things happened to them as a warning, but they were written down for our instruction, upon whom the end of the ages has come.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:15 @ I speak as to sensible men; judge for yourselves what I say.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:25 @ Eat whatever is sold in the meat market without raising any question on the ground of conscience.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:28 @ (But if some one says to you, "This has been offered in sacrifice," then out of consideration for the man who informed you, and for conscience' sake--

rsv@1Corinthians:10:29 @ I mean his conscience, not yours--do not eat it.) For why should my liberty be determined by another man's scruples?

rsv@1Corinthians:10:33 @ just as I try to please all men in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:1 @ Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:2 @ I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ but any woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled dishonors her head--it is the same as if her head were shaven.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:17 @ But in the following instructions I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:20 @ When you meet together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:21 @ For in eating, each one goes ahead with his own meal, and one is hungry and another is drunk.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I commend you in this? No, I will not.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:24 @ and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me."

rsv@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me."

rsv@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:29 @ For any one who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment upon himself.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:30 @ That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:33 @ So then, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another--

rsv@1Corinthians:11:34 @ if any one is hungry, let him eat at home--lest you come together to be condemned. About the other things I will give directions when I come.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:1 @ Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be uninformed.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:4 @ Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit;

rsv@1Corinthians:12:5 @ and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord;

rsv@1Corinthians:12:6 @ and there are varieties of working, but it is the same God who inspires them all in every one.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:8 @ To one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit,

rsv@1Corinthians:12:9 @ to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit,

rsv@1Corinthians:12:11 @ All these are inspired by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:14 @ For the body does not consist of one member but of many.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:17 @ If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell?

rsv@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there may be no discord in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:26 @ If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:27 @ Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:1 @ If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:10 @ but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became a man, I gave up childish ways.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:3 @ On the other hand, he who prophesies speaks to men for their upbuilding and encouragement and consolation.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more to prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than he who speaks in tongues, unless some one interprets, so that the church may be edified.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ Now, brethren, if I come to you speaking in tongues, how shall I benefit you unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:7 @ If even lifeless instruments, such as the flute or the harp, do not give distinct notes, how will any one know what is played?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:10 @ There are doubtless many different languages in the world, and none is without meaning;

rsv@1Corinthians:14:11 @ but if I do not know the meaning of the language, I shall be a foreigner to the speaker and the speaker a foreigner to me.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how can any one in the position of an outsider say the "Amen" to your thanksgiving when he does not know what you are saying?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the law it is written, "By men of strange tongues and by the lips of foreigners will I speak to this people, and even then they will not listen to me, says the Lord."

rsv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ What then, brethren? When you come together, each one has a hymn, a lesson, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:34 @ the women should keep silence in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be subordinate, as even the law says.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:35 @ If there is anything they desire to know, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:6 @ Then he appeared to more than five hundred brethren at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:7 @ Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:8 @ Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God which is with me.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ Now if Christ is preached as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

rsv@1Corinthians:15:19 @ If for this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are of all men most to be pitied.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:24 @ Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Otherwise, what do people mean by being baptized on behalf of the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized on their behalf?

rsv@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Come to your right mind, and sin no more. For some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But some one will ask, "How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?"

rsv@1Corinthians:15:36 @ You foolish man! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And what you sow is not the body which is to be, but a bare kernel, perhaps of wheat or of some other grain.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:39 @ For not all flesh is alike, but there is one kind for men, another for animals, another for birds, and another for fish.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:45 @ Thus it is written, "The first man Adam became a living being"; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:52 @ in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:54 @ When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: "Death is swallowed up in victory."

rsv@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that contributions need not be made when I come.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:4 @ If it seems advisable that I should go also, they will accompany me.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:6 @ and perhaps I will stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may speed me on my journey, wherever I go.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:7 @ For I do not want to see you now just in passing; I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:9 @ for a wide door for effective work has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:10 @ When Timothy comes, see that you put him at ease among you, for he is doing the work of the Lord, as I am.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:11 @ So let no one despise him. Speed him on his way in peace, that he may return to me; for I am expecting him with the brethren.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:12 @ As for our brother Apol'los, I strongly urged him to visit you with the other brethren, but it was not at all his will to come now. He will come when he has opportunity.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:16 @ I urge you to be subject to such men and to every fellow worker and laborer.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:18 @ for they refreshed my spirit as well as yours. Give recognition to such men.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:22 @ If any one has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord, come!

rsv@1Corinthians:16:24 @ My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,

rsv@2Corinthians:1:6 @ If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:15 @ Because I was sure of this, I wanted to come to you first, so that you might have a double pleasure;

rsv@2Corinthians:1:16 @ I wanted to visit you on my way to Macedo'nia, and to come back to you from Macedo'nia and have you send me on my way to Judea.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:20 @ For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why we utter the Amen through him, to the glory of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:23 @ But I call God to witness against me--it was to spare you that I refrained from coming to Corinth.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I cause you pain, who is there to make me glad but the one whom I have pained?

rsv@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote as I did, so that when I came I might not suffer pain from those who should have made me rejoice, for I felt sure of all of you, that my joy would be the joy of you all.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if any one has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but in some measure--not to put it too severely-- to you all.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:6 @ For such a one this punishment by the majority is enough;

rsv@2Corinthians:2:7 @ so you should rather turn to forgive and comfort him, or he may be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:12 @ When I came to Tro'as to preach the gospel of Christ, a door was opened for me in the Lord;

rsv@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God's word; but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, as some do, letters of recommendation to you, or from you?

rsv@2Corinthians:3:2 @ You yourselves are our letter of recommendation, written on your hearts, to be known and read by all men;

rsv@2Corinthians:3:7 @ Now if the dispensation of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such splendor that the Israelites could not look at Moses' face because of its brightness, fading as this was,

rsv@2Corinthians:3:10 @ Indeed, in this case, what once had splendor has come to have no splendor at all, because of the splendor that surpasses it.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:11 @ For if what faded away came with splendor, what is permanent must have much more splendor.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:14 @ But their minds were hardened; for to this day, when they read the old covenant, that same veil remains unlifted, because only through Christ is it taken away.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:18 @ And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another; for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:1 @ Therefore, having this ministry by the mercy of God, we do not lose heart.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:2 @ We have renounced disgraceful, underhanded ways; we refuse to practice cunning or to tamper with God's word, but by the open statement of the truth we would commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:13 @ Since we have the same spirit of faith as he had who wrote, "I believed, and so I spoke," we too believe, and so we speak,

rsv@2Corinthians:4:17 @ For this slight momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison,

rsv@2Corinthians:5:6 @ So we are always of good courage; we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord,

rsv@2Corinthians:5:8 @ We are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:9 @ So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive good or evil, according to what he has done in the body.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men; but what we are is known to God, and I hope it is known also to your conscience.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:12 @ We are not commending ourselves to you again but giving you cause to be proud of us, so that you may be able to answer those who pride themselves on a man's position and not on his heart.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:17 @ Therefore, if any one is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:19 @ that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:21 @ For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:2 @ For he says, "At the acceptable time I have listened to you, and helped you on the day of salvation." Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:4 @ but as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: through great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities,

rsv@2Corinthians:6:5 @ beatings, imprisonments, tumults, labors, watching, hunger;

rsv@2Corinthians:6:16 @ What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said, "I will live in them and move among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore come out from them, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch nothing unclean; then I will welcome you,

rsv@2Corinthians:7:1 @ Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, and make holiness perfect in the fear of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For even when we came into Macedo'nia, our bodies had no rest but we were afflicted at every turn--fighting without and fear within.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not only by his coming but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you, as he told us of your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For see what earnestness this godly grief has produced in you, what eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what alarm, what longing, what zeal, what punishment! At every point you have proved yourselves guiltless in the matter.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if I have expressed to him some pride in you, I was not put to shame; but just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting before Titus has proved true.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his heart goes out all the more to you, as he remembers the obedience of you all, and the fear and trembling with which you received him.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:2 @ for in a severe test of affliction, their abundance of joy and their extreme poverty have overflowed in a wealth of liberality on their part.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:3 @ For they gave according to their means, as I can testify, and beyond their means, of their own free will,

rsv@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that by his poverty you might become rich.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:13 @ I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened,

rsv@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but that as a matter of equality your abundance at the present time should supply their want, so that their abundance may supply your want, that there may be equality.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:16 @ But thanks be to God who puts the same earnest care for you into the heart of Titus.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:20 @ We intend that no one should blame us about this liberal gift which we are administering,

rsv@2Corinthians:8:21 @ for we aim at what is honorable not only in the Lord's sight but also in the sight of men.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:23 @ As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker in your service; and as for our brethren, they are messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:24 @ So give proof, before the churches, of your love and of our boasting about you to these men.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:1 @ Now it is superfluous for me to write to you about the offering for the saints,

rsv@2Corinthians:9:4 @ lest if some Macedo'nians come with me and find that you are not ready, we be humiliated--to say nothing of you--for being so confident.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:5 @ So I thought it necessary to urge the brethren to go on to you before me, and arrange in advance for this gift you have promised, so that it may be ready not as an exaction but as a willing gift.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:1 @ I, Paul, myself entreat you, by the meekness and gentleness of Christ--I who am humble when face to face with you, but bold to you when I am away!--

rsv@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I beg of you that when I am present I may not have to show boldness with such confidence as I count on showing against some who suspect us of acting in worldly fashion.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:5 @ We destroy arguments and every proud obstacle to the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ,

rsv@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For even if I boast a little too much of our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for destroying you, I shall not be put to shame.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:12 @ Not that we venture to class or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves. But when they measure themselves by one another, and compare themselves with one another, they are without understanding.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we are not overextending ourselves, as though we did not reach you; we were the first to come all the way to you with the gospel of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ We do not boast beyond limit, in other men's labors; but our hope is that as your faith increases, our field among you may be greatly enlarged,

rsv@2Corinthians:10:18 @ For it is not the man who commends himself that is accepted, but the man whom the Lord commends.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:1 @ I wish you would bear with me in a little foolishness. Do bear with me!

rsv@2Corinthians:11:4 @ For if some one comes and preaches another Jesus than the one we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or if you accept a different gospel from the one you accepted, you submit to it readily enough.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was with you and was in want, I did not burden any one, for my needs were supplied by the brethren who came from Macedo'nia. So I refrained and will refrain from burdening you in any way.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:10 @ As the truth of Christ is in me, this boast of mine shall not be silenced in the regions of Acha'ia.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:12 @ And what I do I will continue to do, in order to undermine the claim of those who would like to claim that in their boasted mission they work on the same terms as we do.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:13 @ For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I repeat, let no one think me foolish; but even if you do, accept me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:21 @ To my shame, I must say, we were too weak for that! But whatever any one dares to boast of--I am speaking as a fool--I also dare to boast of that.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:23 @ Are they servants of Christ? I am a better one--I am talking like a madman--with far greater labors, far more imprisonments, with countless beatings, and often near death.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:24 @ Five times I have received at the hands of the Jews the forty lashes less one.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:25 @ Three times I have been beaten with rods; once I was stoned. Three times I have been shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been adrift at sea;

rsv@2Corinthians:11:28 @ And, apart from other things, there is the daily pressure upon me of my anxiety for all the churches.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:32 @ At Damascus, the governor under King Ar'etas guarded the city of Damascus in order to seize me,

rsv@2Corinthians:12:6 @ Though if I wish to boast, I shall not be a fool, for I shall be speaking the truth. But I refrain from it, so that no one may think more of me than he sees in me or hears from me.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:7 @ And to keep me from being too elated by the abundance of revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan, to harass me, to keep me from being too elated.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:8 @ Three times I besought the Lord about this, that it should leave me;

rsv@2Corinthians:12:9 @ but he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." I will all the more gladly boast of my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have been a fool! You forced me to it, for I ought to have been commended by you. For I was not at all inferior to these superlative apostles, even though I am nothing.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:12 @ The signs of a true apostle were performed among you in all patience, with signs and wonders and mighty works.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For in what were you less favored than the rest of the churches, except that I myself did not burden you? Forgive me this wrong!

rsv@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Here for the third time I am ready to come to you. And I will not be a burden, for I seek not what is yours but you; for children ought not to lay up for their parents, but parents for their children.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I urged Titus to go, and sent the brother with him. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not act in the same spirit? Did we not take the same steps?

rsv@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I fear that perhaps I may come and find you not what I wish, and that you may find me not what you wish; that perhaps there may be quarreling, jealousy, anger, selfishness, slander, gossip, conceit, and disorder.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:21 @ I fear that when I come again my God may humble me before you, and I may have to mourn over many of those who sinned before and have not repented of the impurity, immorality, and licentiousness which they have practiced.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:1 @ This is the third time I am coming to you. Any charge must be sustained by the evidence of two or three witnesses.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I warned those who sinned before and all the others, and I warn them now while absent, as I did when present on my second visit, that if I come again I will not spare them--

rsv@2Corinthians:13:3 @ since you desire proof that Christ is speaking in me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Examine yourselves, to see whether you are holding to your faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?--unless indeed you fail to meet the test!

rsv@2Corinthians:13:7 @ But we pray God that you may not do wrong--not that we may appear to have met the test, but that you may do what is right, though we may seem to have failed.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:9 @ For we are glad when we are weak and you are strong. What we pray for is your improvement.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:10 @ I write this while I am away from you, in order that when I come I may not have to be severe in my use of the authority which the Lord has given me for building up and not for tearing down.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brethren, farewell. Mend your ways, heed my appeal, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

rsv@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--

rsv@Galatians:1:2 @ and all the brethren who are with me, To the churches of Galatia:

rsv@Galatians:1:5 @ to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@Galatians:1:7 @ not that there is another gospel, but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:1:10 @ Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:1:11 @ For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man's gospel.

rsv@Galatians:1:12 @ For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ.

rsv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God violently and tried to destroy it;

rsv@Galatians:1:14 @ and I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people, so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers.

rsv@Galatians:1:15 @ But when he who had set me apart before I was born, and had called me through his grace,

rsv@Galatians:1:16 @ was pleased to reveal his Son to me, in order that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not confer with flesh and blood,

rsv@Galatians:1:17 @ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned to Damascus.

rsv@Galatians:1:19 @ But I saw none of the other apostles except James the Lord's brother.

rsv@Galatians:1:24 @ And they glorified God because of me.

rsv@Galatians:2:1 @ Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along with me.

rsv@Galatians:2:2 @ I went up by revelation; and I laid before them (but privately before those who were of repute) the gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, lest somehow I should be running or had run in vain.

rsv@Galatians:2:3 @ But even Titus, who was with me, was not compelled to be circumcised, though he was a Greek.

rsv@Galatians:2:5 @ to them we did not yield submission even for a moment, that the truth of the gospel might be preserved for you.

rsv@Galatians:2:6 @ And from those who were reputed to be something (what they were makes no difference to me; God shows no partiality)--those, I say, who were of repute added nothing to me;

rsv@Galatians:2:8 @ (for he who worked through Peter for the mission to the circumcised worked through me also for the Gentiles),

rsv@Galatians:2:9 @ and when they perceived the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised;

rsv@Galatians:2:10 @ only they would have us remember the poor, which very thing I was eager to do.

rsv@Galatians:2:11 @ But when Cephas came to Antioch I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned.

rsv@Galatians:2:12 @ For before certain men came from James, he ate with the Gentiles; but when they came he drew back and separated himself, fearing the circumcision party.

rsv@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

rsv@Galatians:3:2 @ Let me ask you only this: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?

rsv@Galatians:3:7 @ So you see that it is men of faith who are the sons of Abraham.

rsv@Galatians:3:9 @ So then, those who are men of faith are blessed with Abraham who had faith.

rsv@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us--for it is written, "Cursed be every one who hangs on a tree"--

rsv@Galatians:3:14 @ that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

rsv@Galatians:3:17 @ This is what I mean: the law, which came four hundred and thirty years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to make the promise void.

rsv@Galatians:3:19 @ Why then the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the offspring should come to whom the promise had been made; and it was ordained by angels through an intermediary.

rsv@Galatians:3:20 @ Now an intermediary implies more than one; but God is one.

rsv@Galatians:3:23 @ Now before faith came, we were confined under the law, kept under restraint until faith should be revealed.

rsv@Galatians:3:24 @ So that the law was our custodian until Christ came, that we might be justified by faith.

rsv@Galatians:3:25 @ But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a custodian;

rsv@Galatians:4:1 @ I mean that the heir, as long as he is a child, is no better than a slave, though he is the owner of all the estate;

rsv@Galatians:4:3 @ So with us; when we were children, we were slaves to the elemental spirits of the universe.

rsv@Galatians:4:4 @ But when the time had fully come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law,

rsv@Galatians:4:8 @ Formerly, when you did not know God, you were in bondage to beings that by nature are no gods;

rsv@Galatians:4:9 @ but now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and beggarly elemental spirits, whose slaves you want to be once more?

rsv@Galatians:4:12 @ Brethren, I beseech you, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You did me no wrong;

rsv@Galatians:4:13 @ you know it was because of a bodily ailment that I preached the gospel to you at first;

rsv@Galatians:4:14 @ and though my condition was a trial to you, you did not scorn or despise me, but received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus.

rsv@Galatians:4:15 @ What has become of the satisfaction you felt? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.

rsv@Galatians:4:16 @ Have I then become your enemy by telling you the truth?

rsv@Galatians:4:19 @ My little children, with whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you!

rsv@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, you who desire to be under law, do you not hear the law?

rsv@Galatians:4:24 @ Now this is an allegory: these women are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery; she is Hagar.

rsv@Galatians:4:29 @ But as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so it is now.

rsv@Galatians:5:10 @ I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view than mine; and he who is troubling you will bear his judgment, whoever he is.

rsv@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another.

rsv@Galatians:6:3 @ For if any one thinks he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

rsv@Galatians:6:10 @ So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.

rsv@Galatians:6:14 @ But far be it from me to glory except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

rsv@Galatians:6:16 @ Peace and mercy be upon all who walk by this rule, upon the Israel of God.

rsv@Galatians:6:17 @ Henceforth let no man trouble me; for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus.

rsv@Galatians:6:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.

rsv@Ephesians:1:4 @ even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him.

rsv@Ephesians:1:10 @ as a plan for the fulness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.

rsv@Ephesians:1:16 @ I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers,

rsv@Ephesians:1:19 @ and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power in us who believe, according to the working of his great might

rsv@Ephesians:1:21 @ far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come;

rsv@Ephesians:2:4 @ But God, who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which he loved us,

rsv@Ephesians:2:7 @ that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called the uncircumcision by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands--

rsv@Ephesians:2:12 @ remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

rsv@Ephesians:2:15 @ by abolishing in his flesh the law of commandments and ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace,

rsv@Ephesians:2:17 @ And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near;

rsv@Ephesians:2:19 @ So then you are no longer strangers and sojourners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,

rsv@Ephesians:3:2 @ assuming that you have heard of the stewardship of God's grace that was given to me for you,

rsv@Ephesians:3:3 @ how the mystery was made known to me by revelation, as I have written briefly.

rsv@Ephesians:3:5 @ which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;

rsv@Ephesians:3:6 @ that is, how the Gentiles are fellow heirs, members of the same body, and partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

rsv@Ephesians:3:7 @ Of this gospel I was made a minister according to the gift of God's grace which was given me by the working of his power.

rsv@Ephesians:3:8 @ To me, though I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,

rsv@Ephesians:3:9 @ and to make all men see what is the plan of the mystery hidden for ages in God who created all things;

rsv@Ephesians:3:15 @ from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,

rsv@Ephesians:3:21 @ to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@Ephesians:4:2 @ with all lowliness and meekness, with patience, forbearing one another in love,

rsv@Ephesians:4:7 @ But grace was given to each of us according to the measure of Christ's gift.

rsv@Ephesians:4:8 @ Therefore it is said, "When he ascended on high he led a host of captives, and he gave gifts to men."

rsv@Ephesians:4:9 @ (In saying, "He ascended," what does it mean but that he had also descended into the lower parts of the earth?

rsv@Ephesians:4:11 @ And his gifts were that some should be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers,

rsv@Ephesians:4:13 @ until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ;

rsv@Ephesians:4:14 @ so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the cunning of men, by their craftiness in deceitful wiles.

rsv@Ephesians:4:19 @ they have become callous and have given themselves up to licentiousness, greedy to practice every kind of uncleanness.

rsv@Ephesians:4:22 @ Put off your old nature which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful lusts,

rsv@Ephesians:4:25 @ Therefore, putting away falsehood, let every one speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another.

rsv@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for edifying, as fits the occasion, that it may impart grace to those who hear.

rsv@Ephesians:5:3 @ But fornication and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you, as is fitting among saints.

rsv@Ephesians:5:6 @ Let no one deceive you with empty words, for it is because of these things that the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

rsv@Ephesians:5:12 @ For it is a shame even to speak of the things that they do in secret;

rsv@Ephesians:5:13 @ but when anything is exposed by the light it becomes visible, for anything that becomes visible is light.

rsv@Ephesians:5:15 @ Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise,

rsv@Ephesians:5:16 @ making the most of the time, because the days are evil.

rsv@Ephesians:5:19 @ addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with all your heart,

rsv@Ephesians:5:20 @ always and for everything giving thanks in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God the Father.

rsv@Ephesians:5:30 @ because we are members of his body.

rsv@Ephesians:5:31 @ "For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh."

rsv@Philippians:1:3 @ I thank my God in all my remembrance of you,

rsv@Philippians:1:7 @ It is right for me to feel thus about you all, because I hold you in my heart, for you are all partakers with me of grace, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel.

rsv@Philippians:1:10 @ so that you may approve what is excellent, and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,

rsv@Philippians:1:11 @ filled with the fruits of righteousness which come through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

rsv@Philippians:1:12 @ I want you to know, brethren, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel,

rsv@Philippians:1:13 @ so that it has become known throughout the whole praetorian guard and to all the rest that my imprisonment is for Christ;

rsv@Philippians:1:14 @ and most of the brethren have been made confident in the Lord because of my imprisonment, and are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear.

rsv@Philippians:1:15 @ Some indeed preach Christ from envy and rivalry, but others from good will.

rsv@Philippians:1:17 @ the former proclaim Christ out of partisanship, not sincerely but thinking to afflict me in my imprisonment.

rsv@Philippians:1:18 @ What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and in that I rejoice.

rsv@Philippians:1:20 @ as it is my eager expectation and hope that I shall not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death.

rsv@Philippians:1:21 @ For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

rsv@Philippians:1:22 @ If it is to be life in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell.

rsv@Philippians:1:26 @ so that in me you may have ample cause to glory in Christ Jesus, because of my coming to you again.

rsv@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you stand firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel,

rsv@Philippians:2:8 @ And being found in human form he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even death on a cross.

rsv@Philippians:2:9 @ Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name which is above every name,

rsv@Philippians:2:10 @ that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

rsv@Philippians:2:23 @ I hope therefore to send him just as soon as I see how it will go with me;

rsv@Philippians:2:24 @ and I trust in the Lord that shortly I myself shall come also.

rsv@Philippians:2:25 @ I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphrodi'tus my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to my need,

rsv@Philippians:2:29 @ So receive him in the Lord with all joy; and honor such men,

rsv@Philippians:2:30 @ for he nearly died for the work of Christ, risking his life to complete your service to me.

rsv@Philippians:3:1 @ Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is not irksome to me, and is safe for you.

rsv@Philippians:3:6 @ as to zeal a persecutor of the church, as to righteousness under the law blameless.

rsv@Philippians:3:12 @ Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect; but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own.

rsv@Philippians:3:17 @ Brethren, join in imitating me, and mark those who so live as you have an example in us.

rsv@Philippians:3:19 @ Their end is destruction, their god is the belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things.

rsv@Philippians:4:3 @ And I ask you also, true yokefellow, help these women, for they have labored side by side with me in the gospel together with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.

rsv@Philippians:4:5 @ Let all men know your forbearance. The Lord is at hand.

rsv@Philippians:4:9 @ What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, do; and the God of peace will be with you.

rsv@Philippians:4:10 @ I rejoice in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me; you were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity.

rsv@Philippians:4:15 @ And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedo'nia, no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving except you only;

rsv@Colossians:2:20 @ If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the universe, why do you live as if you still belonged to the world? Why do you submit to regulations,

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, for you received the word in much affliction, with joy inspired by the Holy Spirit;

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ so that you became an example to all the believers in Macedo'nia and in Acha'ia.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For they themselves report concerning us what a welcome we had among you, and how you turned to God from idols, to serve a living and true God,

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:10 @ and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ but though we had already suffered and been shamefully treated at Philip'pi, as you know, we had courage in our God to declare to you the gospel of God in the face of great opposition.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ but just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please men, but to please God who tests our hearts.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:6 @ nor did we seek glory from men, whether from you or from others, though we might have made demands as apostles of Christ.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So, being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become very dear to us.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ For you remember our labor and toil, brethren; we worked night and day, that we might not burden any of you, while we preached to you the gospel of God.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses, and God also, how holy and righteous and blameless was our behavior to you believers;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus which are in Judea; for you suffered the same things from your own countrymen as they did from the Jews,

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:15 @ who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out, and displease God and oppose all men

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ by hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles that they may be saved--so as always to fill up the measure of their sins. But God's wrath has come upon them at last!

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But since we were bereft of you, brethren, for a short time, in person not in heart, we endeavored the more eagerly and with great desire to see you face to face;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ because we wanted to come to you--I, Paul, again and again--but Satan hindered us.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we were to suffer affliction; just as it has come to pass, and as you know.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this reason, when I could bear it no longer, I sent that I might know your faith, for fear that somehow the tempter had tempted you and that our labor would be in vain.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and has brought us the good news of your faith and love and reported that you always remember us kindly and long to see us, as we long to see you--

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:12 @ and may the Lord make you increase and abound in love to one another and to all men, as we do to you,

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ then we who are alive, who are left, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so we shall always be with the Lord.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But as to the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need to have anything written to you.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ When people say, "There is peace and security," then sudden destruction will come upon them as travail comes upon a woman with child, and there will be no escape.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But, since we belong to the day, let us be sober, and put on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ May the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept sound and blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:5 @ This is evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be made worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering--

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:9 @ They shall suffer the punishment of eternal destruction and exclusion from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might,

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when he comes on that day to be glorified in his saints, and to be marveled at in all who have believed, because our testimony to you was believed.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:12 @ so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our assembling to meet him, we beg you, brethren,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be quickly shaken in mind or excited, either by spirit or by word, or by letter purporting to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one deceive you in any way; for that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of perdition,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you this?

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:6 @ And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ and that we may be delivered from wicked and evil men; for not all have faith.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear that some of you are living in idleness, mere busybodies, not doing any work.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:14 @ If any one refuses to obey what we say in this letter, note that man, and have nothing to do with him, that he may be ashamed.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you all.

rsv@1Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, my true child in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

rsv@1Timothy:1:12 @ I thank him who has given me strength for this, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he judged me faithful by appointing me to his service,

rsv@1Timothy:1:13 @ though I formerly blasphemed and persecuted and insulted him; but I received mercy because I had acted ignorantly in unbelief,

rsv@1Timothy:1:14 @ and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

rsv@1Timothy:1:15 @ The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. And I am the foremost of sinners;

rsv@1Timothy:1:16 @ but I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience for an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life.

rsv@1Timothy:1:17 @ To the King of ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@1Timothy:1:20 @ among them Hymenae'us and Alexander, whom I have delivered to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme.

rsv@1Timothy:2:1 @ First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men,

rsv@1Timothy:2:4 @ who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

rsv@1Timothy:2:5 @ For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

rsv@1Timothy:2:6 @ who gave himself as a ransom for all, the testimony to which was borne at the proper time.

rsv@1Timothy:2:8 @ I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling;

rsv@1Timothy:2:9 @ also that women should adorn themselves modestly and sensibly in seemly apparel, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly attire

rsv@1Timothy:2:10 @ but by good deeds, as befits women who profess religion.

rsv@1Timothy:2:12 @ I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over men; she is to keep silent.

rsv@1Timothy:2:13 @ For Adam was formed first, then Eve;

rsv@1Timothy:2:14 @ and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.

rsv@1Timothy:3:3 @ no drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, and no lover of money.

rsv@1Timothy:3:10 @ And let them also be tested first; then if they prove themselves blameless let them serve as deacons.

rsv@1Timothy:3:11 @ The women likewise must be serious, no slanderers, but temperate, faithful in all things.

rsv@1Timothy:3:14 @ I hope to come to you soon, but I am writing these instructions to you so that,

rsv@1Timothy:4:1 @ Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons,

rsv@1Timothy:4:8 @ for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.

rsv@1Timothy:4:10 @ For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe.

rsv@1Timothy:4:13 @ Till I come, attend to the public reading of scripture, to preaching, to teaching.

rsv@1Timothy:5:1 @ Do not rebuke an older man but exhort him as you would a father; treat younger men like brothers,

rsv@1Timothy:5:2 @ older women like mothers, younger women like sisters, in all purity.

rsv@1Timothy:5:4 @ If a widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn their religious duty to their own family and make some return to their parents; for this is acceptable in the sight of God.

rsv@1Timothy:5:15 @ For some have already strayed after Satan.

rsv@1Timothy:5:23 @ No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.

rsv@1Timothy:5:24 @ The sins of some men are conspicuous, pointing to judgment, but the sins of others appear later.

rsv@1Timothy:6:1 @ Let all who are under the yoke of slavery regard their masters as worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and the teaching may not be defamed.

rsv@1Timothy:6:5 @ and wrangling among men who are depraved in mind and bereft of the truth, imagining that godliness is a means of gain.

rsv@1Timothy:6:6 @ There is great gain in godliness with contentment;

rsv@1Timothy:6:9 @ But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and hurtful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction.

rsv@1Timothy:6:10 @ For the love of money is the root of all evils; it is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced their hearts with many pangs.

rsv@1Timothy:6:14 @ I charge you to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ;

rsv@1Timothy:6:15 @ and this will be made manifest at the proper time by the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords,

rsv@1Timothy:6:16 @ who alone has immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.

rsv@1Timothy:6:21 @ for by professing it some have missed the mark as regards the faith. Grace be with you.

rsv@2Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

rsv@2Timothy:1:3 @ I thank God whom I serve with a clear conscience, as did my fathers, when I remember you constantly in my prayers.

rsv@2Timothy:1:4 @ As I remember your tears, I long night and day to see you, that I may be filled with joy.

rsv@2Timothy:1:8 @ Do not be ashamed then of testifying to our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but share in suffering for the gospel in the power of God,

rsv@2Timothy:1:12 @ and therefore I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am sure that he is able to guard until that Day what has been entrusted to me.

rsv@2Timothy:1:13 @ Follow the pattern of the sound words which you have heard from me, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus;

rsv@2Timothy:1:15 @ You are aware that all who are in Asia turned away from me, and among them Phy'gelus and Hermog'enes.

rsv@2Timothy:1:16 @ May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiph'orus, for he often refreshed me; he was not ashamed of my chains,

rsv@2Timothy:1:17 @ but when he arrived in Rome he searched for me eagerly and found me--

rsv@2Timothy:1:18 @ may the Lord grant him to find mercy from the Lord on that Day--and you well know all the service he rendered at Ephesus.

rsv@2Timothy:2:2 @ and what you have heard from me before many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.

rsv@2Timothy:2:6 @ It is the hard-working farmer who ought to have the first share of the crops.

rsv@2Timothy:2:8 @ Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, descended from David, as preached in my gospel,

rsv@2Timothy:2:15 @ Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.

rsv@2Timothy:2:17 @ and their talk will eat its way like gangrene. Among them are Hymenae'us and Phile'tus,

rsv@2Timothy:2:18 @ who have swerved from the truth by holding that the resurrection is past already. They are upsetting the faith of some.

rsv@2Timothy:2:19 @ But God's firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: "The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity."

rsv@2Timothy:2:20 @ In a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and earthenware, and some for noble use, some for ignoble.

rsv@2Timothy:2:24 @ And the Lord's servant must not be quarrelsome but kindly to every one, an apt teacher, forbearing,

rsv@2Timothy:2:25 @ correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant that they will repent and come to know the truth,

rsv@2Timothy:3:1 @ But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of stress.

rsv@2Timothy:3:2 @ For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy,

rsv@2Timothy:3:6 @ For among them are those who make their way into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and swayed by various impulses,

rsv@2Timothy:3:8 @ As Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of corrupt mind and counterfeit faith;

rsv@2Timothy:3:9 @ but they will not get very far, for their folly will be plain to all, as was that of those two men.

rsv@2Timothy:3:11 @ my persecutions, my sufferings, what befell me at Antioch, at Ico'nium, and at Lystra, what persecutions I endured; yet from them all the Lord rescued me.

rsv@2Timothy:3:13 @ while evil men and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceivers and deceived.

rsv@2Timothy:4:3 @ For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own likings,

rsv@2Timothy:4:6 @ For I am already on the point of being sacrificed; the time of my departure has come.

rsv@2Timothy:4:8 @ Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that Day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.

rsv@2Timothy:4:9 @ Do your best to come to me soon.

rsv@2Timothy:4:10 @ For Demas, in love with this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessaloni'ca; Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

rsv@2Timothy:4:11 @ Luke alone is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you; for he is very useful in serving me.

rsv@2Timothy:4:13 @ When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Tro'as, also the books, and above all the parchments.

rsv@2Timothy:4:14 @ Alexander the coppersmith did me great harm; the Lord will requite him for his deeds.

rsv@2Timothy:4:15 @ Beware of him yourself, for he strongly opposed our message.

rsv@2Timothy:4:16 @ At my first defense no one took my part; all deserted me. May it not be charged against them!

rsv@2Timothy:4:17 @ But the Lord stood by me and gave me strength to proclaim the message fully, that all the Gentiles might hear it. So I was rescued from the lion's mouth.

rsv@2Timothy:4:18 @ The Lord will rescue me from every evil and save me for his heavenly kingdom. To him be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@2Timothy:4:21 @ Do your best to come before winter. Eubu'lus sends greetings to you, as do Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brethren.

rsv@Titus:1:3 @ and at the proper time manifested in his word through the preaching with which I have been entrusted by command of God our Savior;

rsv@Titus:1:5 @ This is why I left you in Crete, that you might amend what was defective, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you,

rsv@Titus:1:6 @ if any man is blameless, the husband of one wife, and his children are believers and not open to the charge of being profligate or insubordinate.

rsv@Titus:1:7 @ For a bishop, as God's steward, must be blameless; he must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain,

rsv@Titus:1:10 @ For there are many insubordinate men, empty talkers and deceivers, especially the circumcision party;

rsv@Titus:1:14 @ instead of giving heed to Jewish myths or to commands of men who reject the truth.

rsv@Titus:2:2 @ Bid the older men be temperate, serious, sensible, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness.

rsv@Titus:2:3 @ Bid the older women likewise to be reverent in behavior, not to be slanderers or slaves to drink; they are to teach what is good,

rsv@Titus:2:4 @ and so train the young women to love their husbands and children,

rsv@Titus:2:5 @ to be sensible, chaste, domestic, kind, and submissive to their husbands, that the word of God may not be discredited.

rsv@Titus:2:6 @ Likewise urge the younger men to control themselves.

rsv@Titus:2:8 @ and sound speech that cannot be censured, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say of us.

rsv@Titus:2:11 @ For the grace of God has appeared for the salvation of all men,

rsv@Titus:3:2 @ to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all men.

rsv@Titus:3:3 @ For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by men and hating one another;

rsv@Titus:3:5 @ he saved us, not because of deeds done by us in righteousness, but in virtue of his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal in the Holy Spirit,

rsv@Titus:3:7 @ so that we might be justified by his grace and become heirs in hope of eternal life.

rsv@Titus:3:8 @ The saying is sure. I desire you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to apply themselves to good deeds; these are excellent and profitable to men.

rsv@Titus:3:12 @ When I send Artemas or Tych'icus to you, do your best to come to me at Nicop'olis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.

rsv@Titus:3:15 @ All who are with me send greetings to you. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.

rsv@Philemon:1:4 @ I thank my God always when I remember you in my prayers,

rsv@Philemon:1:10 @ I appeal to you for my child, Ones'imus, whose father I have become in my imprisonment.

rsv@Philemon:1:11 @ (Formerly he was useless to you, but now he is indeed useful to you and to me.)

rsv@Philemon:1:13 @ I would have been glad to keep him with me, in order that he might serve me on your behalf during my imprisonment for the gospel;

rsv@Philemon:1:16 @ no longer as a slave but more than a slave, as a beloved brother, especially to me but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.

rsv@Philemon:1:17 @ So if you consider me your partner, receive him as you would receive me.

rsv@Philemon:1:19 @ I, Paul, write this with my own hand, I will repay it--to say nothing of your owing me even your own self.

rsv@Philemon:1:20 @ Yes, brother, I want some benefit from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ.

rsv@Philemon:1:22 @ At the same time, prepare a guest room for me, for I am hoping through your prayers to be granted to you.

rsv@Hebrews:1:4 @ having become as much superior to angels as the name he has obtained is more excellent than theirs.

rsv@Hebrews:1:5 @ For to what angel did God ever say, "Thou art my Son, today I have begotten thee"? Or again, "I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son"?

rsv@Hebrews:1:7 @ Of the angels he says, "Who makes his angels winds, and his servants flames of fire."

rsv@Hebrews:1:11 @ they will perish, but thou remainest; they will all grow old like a garment,

rsv@Hebrews:1:12 @ like a mantle thou wilt roll them up, and they will be changed. But thou art the same, and thy years will never end."

rsv@Hebrews:2:2 @ For if the message declared by angels was valid and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution,

rsv@Hebrews:2:5 @ For it was not to angels that God subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking.

rsv@Hebrews:2:6 @ It has been testified somewhere, "What is man that thou art mindful of him, or the son of man, that thou carest for him?

rsv@Hebrews:2:11 @ For he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified have all one origin. That is why he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

rsv@Hebrews:2:12 @ saying, "I will proclaim thy name to my brethren, in the midst of the congregation I will praise thee."

rsv@Hebrews:2:13 @ And again, "I will put my trust in him." And again, "Here am I, and the children God has given me."

rsv@Hebrews:2:14 @ Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same nature, that through death he might destroy him who has the power of death, that is, the devil,

rsv@Hebrews:2:17 @ Therefore he had to be made like his brethren in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make expiation for the sins of the people.

rsv@Hebrews:3:4 @ (For every house is built by some one, but the builder of all things is God.)

rsv@Hebrews:3:9 @ where your fathers put me to the test and saw my works for forty years.

rsv@Hebrews:4:2 @ For good news came to us just as to them; but the message which they heard did not benefit them, because it did not meet with faith in the hearers.

rsv@Hebrews:4:4 @ For he has somewhere spoken of the seventh day in this way, "And God rested on the seventh day from all his works."

rsv@Hebrews:4:6 @ Since therefore it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly received the good news failed to enter because of disobedience,

rsv@Hebrews:4:11 @ Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, that no one fall by the same sort of disobedience.

rsv@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

rsv@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to act on behalf of men in relation to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.

rsv@Hebrews:5:6 @ as he says also in another place, "Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchiz'edek."

rsv@Hebrews:5:9 @ and being made perfect he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him,

rsv@Hebrews:5:10 @ being designated by God a high priest after the order of Melchiz'edek.

rsv@Hebrews:5:11 @ About this we have much to say which is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing.

rsv@Hebrews:5:12 @ For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need some one to teach you again the first principles of God's word. You need milk, not solid food;

rsv@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,

rsv@Hebrews:6:2 @ with instruction about ablutions, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.

rsv@Hebrews:6:4 @ For it is impossible to restore again to repentance those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit,

rsv@Hebrews:6:5 @ and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come,

rsv@Hebrews:6:11 @ And we desire each one of you to show the same earnestness in realizing the full assurance of hope until the end,

rsv@Hebrews:6:16 @ Men indeed swear by a greater than themselves, and in all their disputes an oath is final for confirmation.

rsv@Hebrews:6:18 @ so that through two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible that God should prove false, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to seize the hope set before us.

rsv@Hebrews:6:20 @ where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest for ever after the order of Melchiz'edek.

rsv@Hebrews:7:1 @ For this Melchiz'edek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him;

rsv@Hebrews:7:2 @ and to him Abraham apportioned a tenth part of everything. He is first, by translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then he is also king of Salem, that is, king of peace.

rsv@Hebrews:7:5 @ And those descendants of Levi who receive the priestly office have a commandment in the law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brethren, though these also are descended from Abraham.

rsv@Hebrews:7:8 @ Here tithes are received by mortal men; there, by one of whom it is testified that he lives.

rsv@Hebrews:7:10 @ for he was still in the loins of his ancestor when Melchiz'edek met him.

rsv@Hebrews:7:11 @ Now if perfection had been attainable through the Levit'ical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need would there have been for another priest to arise after the order of Melchiz'edek, rather than one named after the order of Aaron?

rsv@Hebrews:7:15 @ This becomes even more evident when another priest arises in the likeness of Melchiz'edek,

rsv@Hebrews:7:16 @ who has become a priest, not according to a legal requirement concerning bodily descent but by the power of an indestructible life.

rsv@Hebrews:7:17 @ For it is witnessed of him, "Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchiz'edek."

rsv@Hebrews:7:18 @ On the one hand, a former commandment is set aside because of its weakness and uselessness

rsv@Hebrews:7:21 @ Those who formerly became priests took their office without an oath, but this one was addressed with an oath, "The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind, `Thou art a priest for ever.'"

rsv@Hebrews:7:23 @ The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office;

rsv@Hebrews:7:25 @ Consequently he is able for all time to save those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.

rsv@Hebrews:7:26 @ For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, blameless, unstained, separated from sinners, exalted above the heavens.

rsv@Hebrews:7:28 @ Indeed, the law appoints men in their weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been made perfect for ever.

rsv@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; hence it is necessary for this priest also to have something to offer.

rsv@Hebrews:8:6 @ But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry which is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises.

rsv@Hebrews:8:8 @ For he finds fault with them when he says: "The days will come, says the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;

rsv@Hebrews:8:11 @ And they shall not teach every one his fellow or every one his brother, saying, `Know the Lord,' for all shall know me, from the least of them to the greatest.

rsv@Hebrews:8:12 @ For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more."

rsv@Hebrews:9:5 @ above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.

rsv@Hebrews:9:9 @ (which is symbolic for the present age). According to this arrangement, gifts and sacrifices are offered which cannot perfect the conscience of the worshiper,

rsv@Hebrews:9:10 @ but deal only with food and drink and various ablutions, regulations for the body imposed until the time of reformation.

rsv@Hebrews:9:11 @ But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation)

rsv@Hebrews:9:15 @ Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred which redeems them from the transgressions under the first covenant.

rsv@Hebrews:9:19 @ For when every commandment of the law had been declared by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,

rsv@Hebrews:9:21 @ And in the same way he sprinkled with the blood both the tent and all the vessels used in worship.

rsv@Hebrews:9:27 @ And just as it is appointed for men to die once, and after that comes judgment,

rsv@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.

rsv@Hebrews:10:1 @ For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices which are continually offered year after year, make perfect those who draw near.

rsv@Hebrews:10:5 @ Consequently, when Christ came into the world, he said, "Sacrifices and offerings thou hast not desired, but a body hast thou prepared for me;

rsv@Hebrews:10:7 @ Then I said, `Lo, I have come to do thy will, O God,' as it is written of me in the roll of the book."

rsv@Hebrews:10:9 @ then he added, "Lo, I have come to do thy will." He abolishes the first in order to establish the second.

rsv@Hebrews:10:11 @ And every priest stands daily at his service, offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

rsv@Hebrews:10:12 @ But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,

rsv@Hebrews:10:14 @ For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are sanctified.

rsv@Hebrews:10:17 @ then he adds, "I will remember their sins and their misdeeds no more."

rsv@Hebrews:10:25 @ not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

rsv@Hebrews:10:27 @ but a fearful prospect of judgment, and a fury of fire which will consume the adversaries.

rsv@Hebrews:10:28 @ A man who has violated the law of Moses dies without mercy at the testimony of two or three witnesses.

rsv@Hebrews:10:29 @ How much worse punishment do you think will be deserved by the man who has spurned the Son of God, and profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and outraged the Spirit of grace?

rsv@Hebrews:10:32 @ But recall the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings,

rsv@Hebrews:10:33 @ sometimes being publicly exposed to abuse and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated.

rsv@Hebrews:10:37 @ "For yet a little while, and the coming one shall come and shall not tarry;

rsv@Hebrews:11:7 @ By faith Noah, being warned by God concerning events as yet unseen, took heed and constructed an ark for the saving of his household; by this he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness which comes by faith.

rsv@Hebrews:11:9 @ By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a foreign land, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, heirs with him of the same promise.

rsv@Hebrews:11:12 @ Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born descendants as many as the stars of heaven and as the innumerable grains of sand by the seashore.

rsv@Hebrews:11:14 @ For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland.

rsv@Hebrews:11:16 @ But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.

rsv@Hebrews:11:18 @ of whom it was said, "Through Isaac shall your descendants be named."

rsv@Hebrews:11:19 @ He considered that God was able to raise men even from the dead; hence, figuratively speaking, he did receive him back.

rsv@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith Joseph, at the end of his life, made mention of the exodus of the Israelites and gave directions concerning his burial.

rsv@Hebrews:11:25 @ choosing rather to share ill-treatment with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin.

rsv@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith the people crossed the Red Sea as if on dry land; but the Egyptians, when they attempted to do the same, were drowned.

rsv@Hebrews:11:31 @ By faith Rahab the harlot did not perish with those who were disobedient, because she had given friendly welcome to the spies.

rsv@Hebrews:11:34 @ quenched raging fire, escaped the edge of the sword, won strength out of weakness, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight.

rsv@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women received their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, that they might rise again to a better life.

rsv@Hebrews:11:36 @ Others suffered mocking and scourging, and even chains and imprisonment.

rsv@Hebrews:12:10 @ For they disciplined us for a short time at their pleasure, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness.

rsv@Hebrews:12:11 @ For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant; later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

rsv@Hebrews:12:13 @ and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed.

rsv@Hebrews:12:14 @ Strive for peace with all men, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord.

rsv@Hebrews:12:15 @ See to it that no one fail to obtain the grace of God; that no "root of bitterness" spring up and cause trouble, and by it the many become defiled;

rsv@Hebrews:12:16 @ that no one be immoral or irreligious like Esau, who sold his birthright for a single meal.

rsv@Hebrews:12:18 @ For you have not come to what may be touched, a blazing fire, and darkness, and gloom, and a tempest,

rsv@Hebrews:12:19 @ and the sound of a trumpet, and a voice whose words made the hearers entreat that no further messages be spoken to them.

rsv@Hebrews:12:22 @ But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering,

rsv@Hebrews:12:23 @ and to the assembly of the first-born who are enrolled in heaven, and to a judge who is God of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

rsv@Hebrews:12:24 @ and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks more graciously than the blood of Abel.

rsv@Hebrews:13:2 @ Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

rsv@Hebrews:13:3 @ Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them; and those who are ill-treated, since you also are in the body.

rsv@Hebrews:13:6 @ Hence we can confidently say, "The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid; what can man do to me?"

rsv@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God; consider the outcome of their life, and imitate their faith.

rsv@Hebrews:13:8 @ Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and for ever.

rsv@Hebrews:13:14 @ For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city which is to come.

rsv@Hebrews:13:15 @ Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.

rsv@Hebrews:13:17 @ Obey your leaders and submit to them; for they are keeping watch over your souls, as men who will have to give account. Let them do this joyfully, and not sadly, for that would be of no advantage to you.

rsv@Hebrews:13:21 @ equip you with everything good that you may do his will, working in you that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@Hebrews:13:23 @ You should understand that our brother Timothy has been released, with whom I shall see you if he comes soon.

rsv@Hebrews:13:24 @ Greet all your leaders and all the saints. Those who come from Italy send you greetings.

rsv@Hebrews:13:25 @ Grace be with all of you. Amen.

rsv@James:1:1 @ James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion: Greeting.

rsv@James:1:2 @ Count it all joy, my brethren, when you meet various trials,

rsv@James:1:3 @ for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

rsv@James:1:4 @ And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

rsv@James:1:5 @ If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives to all men generously and without reproaching, and it will be given him.

rsv@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

rsv@James:1:7 @ For that person must not suppose that a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways, will receive anything from the Lord.

rsv@James:1:8 @ Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation,

rsv@James:1:10 @ and the rich in his humiliation, because like the flower of the grass he will pass away.

rsv@James:1:11 @ For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.

rsv@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man who endures trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him.

rsv@James:1:13 @ Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted with evil and he himself tempts no one;

rsv@James:1:14 @ but each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.

rsv@James:1:15 @ Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin; and sin when it is full-grown brings forth death.

rsv@James:1:16 @ Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.

rsv@James:1:17 @ Every good endowment and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.

rsv@James:1:18 @ Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.

rsv@James:1:19 @ Know this, my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger,

rsv@James:1:20 @ for the anger of man does not work the righteousness of God.

rsv@James:1:21 @ Therefore put away all filthiness and rank growth of wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

rsv@James:1:22 @ But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

rsv@James:1:23 @ For if any one is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who observes his natural face in a mirror;

rsv@James:1:24 @ for he observes himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like.

rsv@James:1:25 @ But he who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer that forgets but a doer that acts, he shall be blessed in his doing.

rsv@James:1:26 @ If any one thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this man's religion is vain.

rsv@James:1:27 @ Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.

rsv@James:2:1 @ My brethren, show no partiality as you hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory.

rsv@James:2:2 @ For if a man with gold rings and in fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in,

rsv@James:2:3 @ and you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, "Have a seat here, please," while you say to the poor man, "Stand there," or, "Sit at my feet,"

rsv@James:2:4 @ have you not made distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

rsv@James:2:5 @ Listen, my beloved brethren. Has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to those who love him?

rsv@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Is it not the rich who oppress you, is it not they who drag you into court?

rsv@James:2:7 @ Is it not they who blaspheme that honorable name which was invoked over you?

rsv@James:2:8 @ If you really fulfil the royal law, according to the scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself," you do well.

rsv@James:2:9 @ But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

rsv@James:2:10 @ For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it.

rsv@James:2:11 @ For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," said also, "Do not kill." If you do not commit adultery but do kill, you have become a transgressor of the law.

rsv@James:2:12 @ So speak and so act as those who are to be judged under the law of liberty.

rsv@James:2:13 @ For judgment is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy; yet mercy triumphs over judgment.

rsv@James:2:14 @ What does it profit, my brethren, if a man says he has faith but has not works? Can his faith save him?

rsv@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister is ill-clad and in lack of daily food,

rsv@James:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled," without giving them the things needed for the body, what does it profit?

rsv@James:2:17 @ So faith by itself, if it has no works, is dead.

rsv@James:2:18 @ But some one will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith apart from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith.

rsv@James:2:19 @ You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe--and shudder.

rsv@James:2:20 @ Do you want to be shown, you shallow man, that faith apart from works is barren?

rsv@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he offered his son Isaac upon the altar?

rsv@James:2:22 @ You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by works,

rsv@James:2:23 @ and the scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness"; and he was called the friend of God.

rsv@James:2:24 @ You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.

rsv@James:2:25 @ And in the same way was not also Rahab the harlot justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

rsv@James:2:26 @ For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so faith apart from works is dead.

rsv@James:3:1 @ Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, for you know that we who teach shall be judged with greater strictness.

rsv@James:3:2 @ For we all make many mistakes, and if any one makes no mistakes in what he says he is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also.

rsv@James:3:3 @ If we put bits into the mouths of horses that they may obey us, we guide their whole bodies.

rsv@James:3:4 @ Look at the ships also; though they are so great and are driven by strong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs.

rsv@James:3:5 @ So the tongue is a little member and boasts of great things. How great a forest is set ablaze by a small fire!

rsv@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire. The tongue is an unrighteous world among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the cycle of nature, and set on fire by hell.

rsv@James:3:7 @ For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by humankind,

rsv@James:3:8 @ but no human being can tame the tongue--a restless evil, full of deadly poison.

rsv@James:3:9 @ With it we bless the Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who are made in the likeness of God.

rsv@James:3:10 @ From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brethren, this ought not to be so.

rsv@James:3:11 @ Does a spring pour forth from the same opening fresh water and brackish?

rsv@James:3:12 @ Can a fig tree, my brethren, yield olives, or a grapevine figs? No more can salt water yield fresh.

rsv@James:3:13 @ Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good life let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom.

rsv@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth.

rsv@James:3:15 @ This wisdom is not such as comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, devilish.

rsv@James:3:16 @ For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice.

rsv@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, without uncertainty or insincerity.

rsv@James:3:18 @ And the harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

rsv@James:4:1 @ What causes wars, and what causes fightings among you? Is it not your passions that are at war in your members?

rsv@James:4:2 @ You desire and do not have; so you kill. And you covet and cannot obtain; so you fight and wage war. You do not have, because you do not ask.

rsv@James:4:3 @ You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions.

rsv@James:4:4 @ Unfaithful creatures! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

rsv@James:4:5 @ Or do you suppose it is in vain that the scripture says, "He yearns jealously over the spirit which he has made to dwell in us"?

rsv@James:4:6 @ But he gives more grace; therefore it says, "God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

rsv@James:4:7 @ Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

rsv@James:4:8 @ Draw near to God and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you men of double mind.

rsv@James:4:9 @ Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to dejection.

rsv@James:4:10 @ Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you.

rsv@James:4:11 @ Do not speak evil against one another, brethren. He that speaks evil against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.

rsv@James:4:12 @ There is one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you that you judge your neighbor?

rsv@James:4:13 @ Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and get gain";

rsv@James:4:14 @ whereas you do not know about tomorrow. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.

rsv@James:4:15 @ Instead you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we shall live and we shall do this or that."

rsv@James:4:16 @ As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.

rsv@James:4:17 @ Whoever knows what is right to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.

rsv@James:5:1 @ Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you.

rsv@James:5:2 @ Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten.

rsv@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver have rusted, and their rust will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure for the last days.

rsv@James:5:4 @ Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts.

rsv@James:5:5 @ You have lived on the earth in luxury and in pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.

rsv@James:5:6 @ You have condemned, you have killed the righteous man; he does not resist you.

rsv@James:5:7 @ Be patient, therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it until it receives the early and the late rain.

rsv@James:5:8 @ You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

rsv@James:5:9 @ Do not grumble, brethren, against one another, that you may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing at the doors.

rsv@James:5:10 @ As an example of suffering and patience, brethren, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.

rsv@James:5:11 @ Behold, we call those happy who were steadfast. You have heard of the steadfastness of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful.

rsv@James:5:12 @ But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath, but let your yes be yes and your no be no, that you may not fall under condemnation.

rsv@James:5:13 @ Is any one among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praise.

rsv@James:5:14 @ Is any among you sick? 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;

rsv@James:5:15 @ and the prayer of faith will save the sick man, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

rsv@James:5:16 @ Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects.

rsv@James:5:17 @ Eli'jah was a man of like nature with ourselves and he prayed fervently that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth.

rsv@James:5:18 @ Then he prayed again and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth its fruit.

rsv@James:5:19 @ My brethren, if any one among you wanders from the truth and some one brings him back,

rsv@James:5:20 @ let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.

rsv@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! By his great mercy we have been born anew to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

rsv@1Peter:2:4 @ Come to him, to that living stone, rejected by men but in God's sight chosen and precious;

rsv@1Peter:2:7 @ To you therefore who believe, he is precious, but for those who do not believe, "The very stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner,"

rsv@1Peter:2:8 @ and "A stone that will make men stumble, a rock that will make them fall"; for they stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do.

rsv@1Peter:3:1 @ Likewise you wives, be submissive to your husbands, so that some, though they do not obey the word, may be won without a word by the behavior of their wives,

rsv@1Peter:3:5 @ So once the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves and were submissive to their husbands,

rsv@1Peter:3:16 @ and keep your conscience clear, so that, when you are abused, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame.

rsv@1Peter:3:20 @ who formerly did not obey, when God's patience waited in the days of Noah, during the building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were saved through water.

rsv@1Peter:4:1 @ Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same thought, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

rsv@1Peter:4:2 @ so as to live for the rest of the time in the flesh no longer by human passions but by the will of God.

rsv@1Peter:4:3 @ Let the time that is past suffice for doing what the Gentiles like to do, living in licentiousness, passions, drunkenness, revels, carousing, and lawless idolatry.

rsv@1Peter:4:4 @ They are surprised that you do not now join them in the same wild profligacy, and they abuse you;

rsv@1Peter:4:14 @ If you are reproached for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.

rsv@1Peter:4:16 @ yet if one suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but under that name let him glorify God.

rsv@1Peter:4:17 @ For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?

rsv@1Peter:5:2 @ Tend the flock of God that is your charge, not by constraint but willingly, not for shameful gain but eagerly,

rsv@1Peter:5:6 @ Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that in due time he may exalt you.

rsv@2Peter:2:9 @ then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trial, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment,

rsv@2Peter:2:11 @ whereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not pronounce a reviling judgment upon them before the Lord.

rsv@2Peter:2:12 @ But these, like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and killed, reviling in matters of which they are ignorant, will be destroyed in the same destruction with them,

rsv@2Peter:2:13 @ suffering wrong for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their dissipation, carousing with you.

rsv@2Peter:2:18 @ For, uttering loud boasts of folly, they entice with licentious passions of the flesh men who have barely escaped from those who live in error.

rsv@2Peter:2:19 @ They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption; for whatever overcomes a man, to that he is enslaved.

rsv@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overpowered, the last state has become worse for them than the first.

rsv@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.

rsv@2Peter:3:2 @ that you should remember the predictions of the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles.

rsv@2Peter:3:3 @ First of all you must understand this, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own passions

rsv@2Peter:3:5 @ They deliberately ignore this fact, that by the word of God heavens existed long ago, and an earth formed out of water and by means of water,

rsv@2Peter:3:7 @ But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist have been stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

rsv@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord is not slow about his promise as some count slowness, but is forbearing toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.

rsv@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fire, and the earth and the works that are upon it will be burned up.

rsv@2Peter:3:12 @ waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be kindled and dissolved, and the elements will melt with fire!

rsv@2Peter:3:16 @ speaking of this as he does in all his letters. There are some things in them hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other scriptures.

rsv@2Peter:3:17 @ You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, beware lest you be carried away with the error of lawless men and lose your own stability.

rsv@2Peter:3:18 @ But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

rsv@1John:1:5 @ This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him is no darkness at all.

rsv@1John:2:3 @ And by this we may be sure that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

rsv@1John:2:4 @ He who says "I know him" but disobeys his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him;

rsv@1John:2:6 @ he who says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.

rsv@1John:2:7 @ Beloved, I am writing you no new commandment, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word which you have heard.

rsv@1John:2:8 @ Yet I am writing you a new commandment, which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining.

rsv@1John:2:13 @ I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, children, because you know the Father.

rsv@1John:2:14 @ I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

rsv@1John:2:18 @ Children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come; therefore we know that it is the last hour.

rsv@1John:2:28 @ And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming.

rsv@1John:3:11 @ For this is the message which you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another,

rsv@1John:3:22 @ and we receive from him whatever we ask, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him.

rsv@1John:3:23 @ And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us.

rsv@1John:3:24 @ All who keep his commandments abide in him, and he in them. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit which he has given us.

rsv@1John:4:2 @ By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit which confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

rsv@1John:4:4 @ Little children, you are of God, and have overcome them; for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

rsv@1John:4:17 @ In this is love perfected with us, that we may have confidence for the day of judgment, because as he is so are we in this world.

rsv@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and he who fears is not perfected in love.

rsv@1John:4:21 @ And this commandment we have from him, that he who loves God should love his brother also.

rsv@1John:5:2 @ By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments.

rsv@1John:5:3 @ For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.

rsv@1John:5:4 @ For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith.

rsv@1John:5:5 @ Who is it that overcomes the world but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

rsv@1John:5:6 @ This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ, not with the water only but with the water and the blood.

rsv@1John:5:9 @ If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for this is the testimony of God that he has borne witness to his Son.

rsv@1John:5:13 @ I write this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life.

rsv@1John:5:20 @ And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, to know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.

rsv@2John:1:3 @ Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from Jesus Christ the Father's Son, in truth and love.

rsv@2John:1:4 @ I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children following the truth, just as we have been commanded by the Father.

rsv@2John:1:5 @ And now I beg you, lady, not as though I were writing you a new commandment, but the one we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.

rsv@2John:1:6 @ And this is love, that we follow his commandments; this is the commandment, as you have heard from the beginning, that you follow love.

rsv@2John:1:7 @ For many deceivers have gone out into the world, men who will not acknowledge the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh; such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist.

rsv@2John:1:10 @ If any one comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into the house or give him any greeting;

rsv@2John:1:12 @ Though I have much to write to you, I would rather not use paper and ink, but I hope to come to see you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

rsv@3John:1:3 @ For I greatly rejoiced when some of the brethren arrived and testified to the truth of your life, as indeed you do follow the truth.

rsv@3John:1:8 @ So we ought to support such men, that we may be fellow workers in the truth.

rsv@3John:1:9 @ I have written something to the church; but Diot'rephes, who likes to put himself first, does not acknowledge my authority.

rsv@3John:1:10 @ So if I come, I will bring up what he is doing, prating against me with evil words. And not content with that, he refuses himself to welcome the brethren, and also stops those who want to welcome them and puts them out of the church.

rsv@3John:1:12 @ Deme'trius has testimony from every one, and from the truth itself; I testify to him too, and you know my testimony is true.

rsv@Jude:1:1 @ Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James, To those who are called, beloved in God the Father and kept for Jesus Christ:

rsv@Jude:1:2 @ May mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.

rsv@Jude:1:4 @ For admission has been secretly gained by some who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly persons who pervert the grace of our God into licentiousness and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

rsv@Jude:1:5 @ Now I desire to remind you, though you were once for all fully informed, that he who saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.

rsv@Jude:1:6 @ And the angels that did not keep their own position but left their proper dwelling have been kept by him in eternal chains in the nether gloom until the judgment of the great day;

rsv@Jude:1:7 @ just as Sodom and Gomor'rah and the surrounding cities, which likewise acted immorally and indulged in unnatural lust, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire.

rsv@Jude:1:8 @ Yet in like manner these men in their dreamings defile the flesh, reject authority, and revile the glorious ones.

rsv@Jude:1:9 @ But when the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, disputed about the body of Moses, he did not presume to pronounce a reviling judgment upon him, but said, "The Lord rebuke you."

rsv@Jude:1:10 @ But these men revile whatever they do not understand, and by those things that they know by instinct as irrational animals do, they are destroyed.

rsv@Jude:1:13 @ wild waves of the sea, casting up the foam of their own shame; wandering stars for whom the nether gloom of darkness has been reserved for ever.

rsv@Jude:1:14 @ It was of these also that Enoch in the seventh generation from Adam prophesied, saying, "Behold, the Lord came with his holy myriads,

rsv@Jude:1:15 @ to execute judgment on all, and to convict all the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness which they have committed in such an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against him."

rsv@Jude:1:17 @ But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

rsv@Jude:1:18 @ they said to you, "In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions."

rsv@Jude:1:21 @ keep yourselves in the love of God; wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

rsv@Jude:1:22 @ And convince some, who doubt;

rsv@Jude:1:23 @ save some, by snatching them out of the fire; on some have mercy with fear, hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

rsv@Jude:1:25 @ to the only God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and for ever. Amen.
