bwe@Matthew:5:47 @ Do you speak to your brothers only? If so, you are not doing any better than other people. Even people who do not believe in God do that.

bwe@Matthew:6:5 @ When you talk to God, do not be like people who are not true to themselves. They like to stand and talk to God in the meeting houses and at the street corners, so that people will see them. I tell you the truth. They have their reward already.

bwe@Matthew:6:7 @ And when you talk to God, do not say words that mean nothing, over and over again. People who do not believe in God do that. They think their god will hear them because they say many words.

bwe@Matthew:6:12 @ "Forgive us for the wrong things we have done, the way we forgive those who have done wrong things to us.

bwe@Matthew:6:16 @ When you are fasting <FI>not eating food for a time<Fi>, do not look sad. That is what people do who are not true to themselves. They look sad to show people they are fasting. I tell you the truth. They have their reward already.

bwe@Matthew:7:11 @ You are wrong, and yet you know how to give good things to your children. Much more, your Father in heaven will give good things to those who ask him.

bwe@Matthew:7:15 @ Take care. There are prophets who are not true. They come to you dressed like sheep, but inside they are like wolves, bad animals that kill sheep.

bwe@Matthew:7:21 @ Some people say to me, "Lord, Lord". But not all who say that will go into the kingdom of heaven. Only those who do what my Father in heaven wants, will go in.

bwe@Matthew:7:24 @ Everyone who hears what I say and obeys me will be like a man who has good sense. He built his house on a rock.

bwe@Matthew:7:26 @ But everyone who hears what I say and does not obey me, will be like a man who has no sense. He built his house on the sand.

bwe@Matthew:8:2 @ A man who had leprosy <FI>a bad skin disease<Fi> came and kneeled in front of Jesus and worshipped him. He said to Jesus, Sir, I know you can heal me if you want to.

bwe@Matthew:8:10 @ Jesus was surprised when he heard this. He said to the people who followed him, I tell you the truth. I have not found any Jew who believes as this man does.

bwe@Matthew:9:8 @ Many people saw this and were much surprised. They praised God who had given such power to men.

bwe@Matthew:9:12 @ Jesus heard it. He said to them, People who are well do not need a doctor. But sick people need him.

bwe@Matthew:9:15 @ Jesus answered, The people at a wedding cannot be sad while the man who is married is with them. But the time will come when he will be taken away from them. Then they will not eat.

bwe@Matthew:10:20 @ It is not you who speak. But it is the Spirit of your Father who is speaking through you.

bwe@Matthew:10:22 @ Everyone will hate you because you are true to me. But the person who keeps on being true to me until the end, will be saved.

bwe@Matthew:10:24 @ The one who learns is not better than his teacher. And the servant is not better than his master.

bwe@Matthew:10:25 @ The one who learns should want to be like his teacher. And the servant should want to be like his master. If they say the master belongs to the devil, they will say it all the more about those who work for him.

bwe@Matthew:10:28 @ Do not fear people who can kill the body. They cannot kill the spirit. But fear the one who can destroy both spirit and body in hell.

bwe@Matthew:10:36 @ A man will have people in his own family who make trouble for him.

bwe@Matthew:10:37 @ Anyone who loves his father or his mother more than he loves me, is not good enough for me. Anyone who loves his son or his daughter more than he loves me, is not good enough for me.

bwe@Matthew:10:38 @ Anyone who is not willing to carry his cross and suffer with me, is not good enough for me.

bwe@Matthew:10:39 @ Anyone who tries to keep his life, will lose it. Anyone who gives up his life for my sake, will find it.

bwe@Matthew:11:6 @ Anyone who is not troubled in his heart about me, will be happy.

bwe@Matthew:11:8 @ What did you go out to see? A man wearing fine clothes? People who wear fine clothes live in kings houses.

bwe@Matthew:11:11 @ I tell you the truth. No one has ever been born who is greater than John the Baptizer. And yet the smallest one in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

bwe@Matthew:11:14 @ If you will believe it, this man is the Elijah who would come.

bwe@Matthew:11:15 @ Everyone who has ears, listen.

bwe@Matthew:11:16 @ What shall I say that the people of today are like? They are like children who sit in the market. They call to the other children.

bwe@Matthew:11:25 @ Then Jesus said, Father, you are Lord of heaven and earth. I thank you because you have hidden these things from people who are wise and know many things. But you have shown them to people who are like children.

bwe@Matthew:12:4 @ He went into Gods house. Some bread was there for God. Davids men ate it. David did not have the right to eat it, nor the men who were with him. Only the priests have the right to eat it. But David took the bread and ate it. He also gave some of it to the men who were with him.

bwe@Matthew:12:6 @ I tell you, there is someone here who is greater than the temple.

bwe@Matthew:12:10 @ There was a man whose hand was thin and weak. The people asked Jesus, Is it right to heal a man on the Sabbath day? They wanted to find something wrong about Jesus.

bwe@Matthew:12:18 @ He said, This is my servant. I have chosen him. I love him. I am very pleased with him. I will put my Spirit on him. He will judge the people who are not Jews.

bwe@Matthew:12:21 @ Those who are not Jews will believe in him.

bwe@Matthew:12:30 @ Anyone who is not with me, is against me. Anyone who does not work with me is working against me.

bwe@Matthew:12:31 @ That is why I tell you this. All wrong things that people do or say, will be forgiven. But people who say wrong things against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven.

bwe@Matthew:12:32 @ Anyone who says anything against the Son of Man will be forgiven. But anyone who says anything against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven. He will not be forgiven in this world or in the next world.

bwe@Matthew:12:41 @ When people are judged, the men of the city of Nineveh will stand up and speak against the people of today. The people of Nineveh stopped their wrong ways when Jonah told them Gods word. And the one who is here is greater than Jonah.

bwe@Matthew:12:42 @ When people are judged, the Queen of the South will stand up and speak against the people of today. She came a long way to hear the wise talk of Solomon. And the one who is here is greater than Solomon.

bwe@Matthew:12:48 @ But to the man who told him, he said, Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?

bwe@Matthew:12:50 @ Anyone who obeys my Father in heaven is my brother, my sister, and my mother.

bwe@Matthew:13:9 @ Everyone who has ears, listen!

bwe@Matthew:13:12 @ Anyone who already has something will get more, and he will have plenty. But he who does not have anything, even the little that he has will be taken away from him.

bwe@Matthew:13:18 @ So listen to hear what the story means, about the man who sowed the seed.

bwe@Matthew:13:20 @ Some seed fell on the stony ground. That is like a person who hears the message and right away he is glad to hear it.

bwe@Matthew:13:22 @ Some seed fell among the weeds. That is like the person who hears the message. But he thinks about the things of this world. He wants to get money to be happy. These things push the message out of his heart. No good comes from it.

bwe@Matthew:13:23 @ Some seed fell on good ground. That is like a person who hears the message and understands it. Much good comes from it. Some people are like the seed that gave a hundred more seeds. Some people are like the seed that gave sixty. Some people are like the seed that gave thirty.

bwe@Matthew:13:27 @ The servants came and said to the man who owned the field, "Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How did the weeds get here?"

bwe@Matthew:13:30 @ Let them both grow together until the harvest time. When it is time to cut it, I will say to the men who cut it, Cut the weeds first. Tie them in bundles to be burned. Then put the grain into my storehouse."

bwe@Matthew:13:37 @ Jesus answered, The person who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.

bwe@Matthew:13:38 @ The field is the world. The good seed means the people who belong to the kingdom. The weeds mean those who belong to the bad one.

bwe@Matthew:13:39 @ The bad man who planted the weeds is the devil. The harvest time is the end of this world. The men who cut the harvest are angels.

bwe@Matthew:13:41 @ The Son of Man will send his angels. They will gather everything that is bad and the people who do bad things. They will take them out of his kingdom.

bwe@Matthew:13:43 @ Then the people who are right with God will shine like the sun in their Fathers kingdom. Everyone who has ears, listen.

bwe@Matthew:13:52 @ Then Jesus said to them, So anyone who knows the law and has learned about the kingdom of heaven, is like the headman of a house. He can bring both new things and old things out of what he has stored up.

bwe@Matthew:13:57 @ They did not understand Jesus. Jesus said to them, Other people honour a man who is a prophet. But the people in his own country and home do not honour him.

bwe@Matthew:14:6 @ On Herods birthday, the daughter of Herodias danced for the people who were there. She pleased Herod.

bwe@Matthew:14:9 @ The king was very sorry to do this. But he had made a promise. And all the people who were there had heard him promise. So he gave orders to do it.

bwe@Matthew:14:14 @ When Jesus got out of the boat, he saw many people. He was sorry for them and he healed those who were sick.

bwe@Matthew:14:21 @ The number of men who ate was about five thousand, besides some women and children.

bwe@Matthew:14:36 @ They begged Jesus to let them touch his clothes. And all the people who touched him were healed.

bwe@Matthew:15:4 @ God said, "Respect your father and your mother." And God said, "Anyone who says wrong things to his father or his mother will surely die."

bwe@Matthew:15:14 @ Leave them alone. They are blind men who are trying to lead blind men. If a blind man leads a blind man, they will both fall into a hole.

bwe@Matthew:15:30 @ The people were surprised. They saw that people who had not been able to talk were talking. They saw that people who were hurt were made well. They saw that lame people were walking. They saw that blind people could see. And they praised the God of Israel.

bwe@Matthew:15:37 @ The number of people who ate was about four thousand men, besides some women and children.

bwe@Matthew:16:13 @ Jesus went to the country of Caesarea Philippi. He asked his disciples, I am the Son of Man. Whom do people say I am?

bwe@Matthew:16:15 @ Jesus said to them, Whom do you say I am?

bwe@Matthew:16:25 @ Anyone who wants to keep his life will lose it. And anyone who gives up his life for my sake will find it.

bwe@Matthew:16:26 @ What good will it do a man if he gets the whole world for himself, but loses his life? What can a person give to get back his life?

bwe@Matthew:16:28 @ I tell you the truth. Some people are standing here who will not die before they see the Son of Man come in his kingdom.

bwe@Matthew:17:24 @ They came to Capernaum. There the men who were collecting the tax for the temple came to Peter. They asked him, Does not your teacher pay the tax for the temple?

bwe@Matthew:17:25 @ Peter said, Yes, he does. When he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him about it first. He said, Simon, what do you think? From whom do kings on earth take taxes? Do they take them from their own people or from other people?

bwe@Matthew:18:1 @ The disciples came to Jesus at that time. They said, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?

bwe@Matthew:18:4 @ So anyone who feels himself small like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

bwe@Matthew:18:7 @ There will be trouble in the world because people make other people do wrong! People will do wrong. But the person who makes another person do wrong will have trouble.

bwe@Matthew:18:10 @ Do not think badly of these little children. I tell you this. They have angels in heaven. And all the time their angels can see the face of my father who is in heaven.

bwe@Matthew:18:11 @ The Son of Man came to save anyone who is lost.

bwe@Matthew:18:17 @ If he does not listen to them, tell the church. If he does not listen to the church, treat him as one who does not believe in God and as bad as a tax collector.

bwe@Matthew:19:9 @ But I tell you this. No man may send his wife away unless she has committed adultery. If he does, and if he marries another woman, he commits adultery. And if a man marries a woman who has been sent away by her husband, he commits adultery.

bwe@Matthew:19:12 @ Some men cannot marry because they were born that way. Some were made that way by men. Others said, "I will not marry, for the sake of the kingdom of heaven." Anyone who can do this, should do it.

bwe@Matthew:19:25 @ When the disciples heard this, they were very much surprised. They said, Then who can be saved?

bwe@Matthew:19:28 @ Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth. In the new world, the Son of Man will be great. He will sit on his throne of glory <FI>big chair of a king<Fi> to rule. Then you who have come with me will also sit on twelve thrones. You will judge the twelve tribes of Israel.

bwe@Matthew:19:30 @ But many people who are first will be last, and those who are last will be first.

bwe@Matthew:20:8 @ When evening came, the man who owned the farm said to his manager, "Call the workmen and pay them. Begin with those who came last and end with those who came first."

bwe@Matthew:20:9 @ Each of the men who started work at five oclock was paid a days wages.

bwe@Matthew:20:10 @ Those who started work first thought they would get more than that. But they also were paid a days wages.

bwe@Matthew:20:11 @ They took it, but they were angry and talked against the man who owned the farm.

bwe@Matthew:20:16 @ In the same way, people who are last will be first, and those who are first will be last.

bwe@Matthew:20:19 @ They will give him over to rulers who are not Jews. They will make fun of him. They will beat him and nail him to a cross. On the third day, he will be raised.

bwe@Matthew:20:23 @ Then Jesus said to them, You will drink what I drink. But I cannot choose who will sit at my right or at my left. My Father has planned who will sit there.

bwe@Matthew:20:25 @ But Jesus called them to him and said, You know that those who rule over countries make their people obey them. The great men will tell the others what to do.

bwe@Matthew:20:26 @ But that is not the way it is among you. Anyone among you who wants to be great will help the others.

bwe@Matthew:20:27 @ Anyone among you who wants to be first will be a servant to the others.

bwe@Matthew:21:9 @ People in front of him and people behind him shouted, Praise the Son of David! God bless him who comes in the name of the Lord! Praise him in heaven!

bwe@Matthew:21:10 @ When Jesus came into Jerusalem, all the people there were very excited. They said, Who is this?

bwe@Matthew:21:11 @ The people who were with Jesus said, This is Jesus from the town of Nazareth in Galilee. He is a prophet.

bwe@Matthew:21:12 @ Jesus went into the temple of God. He drove out all the people who were buying and selling in the temple. He threw down the tables of the money changers. He pushed down the seats of those who sold doves.

bwe@Matthew:21:13 @ He said to them, The holy writings say, "My house shall be called a house where people talk with God." But you have made it a place for people who steal!

bwe@Matthew:21:14 @ Blind people came to Jesus in the temple. People who could not walk came to him. And he healed them.

bwe@Matthew:21:23 @ He came to the temple and went in and taught the people. The chief priests and the leaders of the people came to him. They asked, What right have you to do these things? Who gave you the right to do them?

bwe@Matthew:21:25 @ Who gave John the right to baptise people? Did God or did men? So they talked it over together. They said, If we say, "God gave John the right to do it," he will say to us, "Then why did you not believe him?"

bwe@Matthew:21:31 @ Which of the two sons did what his father wanted him to do? They said, The first one. Then Jesus said, I tell you the truth. The tax collectors and women who commit adultery by selling their bodies, are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.

bwe@Matthew:21:32 @ John came to you to tell you the right way. But you did not believe him. The tax collectors and women who commit adultery believed him. And even when you saw that, you did not change your minds and believe him.

bwe@Matthew:21:38 @ When the men saw the son, they said to each other, "This is the one who will have everything when his father dies. Let us kill him and we will have it all."

bwe@Matthew:21:41 @ They answered, He will kill those bad men, and will give the farm to other men who will give him the fruit when it is time.

bwe@Matthew:21:43 @ So I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken from you. It will be given to the people who do what they should do in it.

bwe@Matthew:22:3 @ The king sent his servants to call the people who had been asked to the wedding. But they would not come.

bwe@Matthew:22:4 @ He sent other servants to call them. He said, "Tell those who were asked to the wedding that my dinner is cooked. The cows and bullocks have been killed. Everything is ready. Come now to the wedding."

bwe@Matthew:22:7 @ The king was very angry. He sent his soldiers to kill the men who had killed his servants. And he burned their city.

bwe@Matthew:22:8 @ Then he said to his servants, "The wedding is ready. But those who were asked to come were not good enough.

bwe@Matthew:22:11 @ The king came in to look at the people. He saw one man there who was not wearing the right clothes for a wedding.

bwe@Matthew:22:20 @ Whose picture and name is this? he asked.

bwe@Matthew:22:35 @ One of them was a man who taught Gods law. He asked Jesus a question to try him out.

bwe@Matthew:22:42 @ He said, What do you think about Christ? Whose son is he? They said, He is Davids son.

bwe@Matthew:23:11 @ The person who is greatest among you will help the others.

bwe@Matthew:23:12 @ Anyone who puts himself up will be brought down. And anyone who puts himself down will be brought up.

bwe@Matthew:23:13 @ You scribes and Pharisees will have trouble. You are not true to yourselves! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven so people cannot go in. You yourselves do not go in, and you stop those who were going in.

bwe@Matthew:23:14 @ You scribes and Pharisees will have trouble. You who are not true to yourselves! You take away the homes of women whose husbands are dead. You cover up your wrong ways by talking big to God for a long time. Because of that, you will be punished harder.

bwe@Matthew:23:15 @ You scribes and Pharisees will have trouble. You who are not true to yourselves! You travel over sea and land to win one person to believe what you believe. And when he believes, you make him twice as fit for hell as you are.

bwe@Matthew:23:21 @ If anyone makes a promise by the temple, he makes his promise by the temple and by God who lives in the temple.

bwe@Matthew:23:22 @ If anyone makes a promise by heaven, he makes his promise by Gods big chair called a throne and by God who sits on the throne.

bwe@Matthew:23:23 @ You scribes and Pharisees will have trouble. You who are not true to yourselves! You give God a tenth part of small garden plants. But you have not done those bigger matters of the law. You have not judged in the right way. You have not been kind. You have not believed God. You should be doing these things and the other things too.

bwe@Matthew:23:25 @ You scribes and Pharisees will have trouble. You who are not true to yourselves! You wash the outside of a cup and a dish clean. But inside they are full of greed and wrong ways!

bwe@Matthew:23:27 @ You scribes and Pharisees will have trouble. You who are not true to yourselves! You are like graves that have been painted white. Outside they look very nice. But inside they are full of dead mens bones and all kinds of dirt.

bwe@Matthew:23:29 @ You scribes and Pharisees will have trouble. You who are not true to yourselves! You build places to bury the prophets and fix up graves of good men.

bwe@Matthew:23:31 @ So you prove that you are the sons of the men who killed the prophets.

bwe@Matthew:23:33 @ You snakes-a whole family of snakes! You cannot get away! You will be judged and sent to hell.

bwe@Matthew:23:35 @ So you will be punished for all the blood of every good man that is on the ground. I mean all the blood from the time of Abel, who was a good man, to Zechariah, the son of Barachiah. You killed him between the temple and Gods altar.

bwe@Matthew:23:36 @ I tell you the truth. The people who are still living now will be punished for all these things.

bwe@Matthew:23:37 @ Jerusalem! Jerusalem! You kill the prophets. You throw stones to kill the men who are sent to you! How often I have wanted to gather your people together, as a mother hen gathers her little ones under her wings. But you would not come!

bwe@Matthew:23:39 @ I tell you this. You will not see me again until the time when you say, "God bless him who comes in the name of the Lord."

bwe@Matthew:24:13 @ But the person who keeps on being true to me until the end, that one will be saved.

bwe@Matthew:24:15 @ Daniel the prophet said that people would put something very bad in the temple. (Let the one who reads this understand it.)

bwe@Matthew:24:17 @ A person who is on the top of a house must not go down into the house to get things from the house.

bwe@Matthew:24:18 @ A person who is working in the fields must not go back home to get his coat.

bwe@Matthew:24:19 @ In those days it will be very hard for women who are to have a child. It will be very hard for mothers who have a baby.

bwe@Matthew:24:34 @ I tell you the truth. The people who are living then, will not die before all these things happen.

bwe@Matthew:24:45 @ Who is like a wise servant who can be trusted? His master will put him in charge of his other servants. He gives them their food at the right time.

bwe@Matthew:24:46 @ The servant who is doing this when his master comes, will be blessed.

bwe@Matthew:24:49 @ Then he will begin to beat the other servants. He will eat and drink with men who are drunk.

bwe@Matthew:24:51 @ The master will punish him and lock him in with people who are not true. People there will cry and grind <FI>make a noise with<Fi> their teeth.

bwe@Matthew:25:1 @ Then the kingdom of heaven will be like this. Ten young women took their lamps and went to meet a man who was being married.

bwe@Matthew:25:6 @ At midnight there was a call, "Here comes the man who is to be married! Come out to meet him."

bwe@Matthew:25:10 @ While they went away to buy oil, the man came. Those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast. Then the door was shut.

bwe@Matthew:25:16 @ Right away the servant who had five bags of money began to buy and sell things with it. He made five bags of money more than he had at first.

bwe@Matthew:25:17 @ The servant who had two bags of money did the same thing as the one who had five bags. He also made two bags of money more than he had at first.

bwe@Matthew:25:18 @ But the man who had only one bag of money dug a hole in the ground. And he hid his masters money in the ground.

bwe@Matthew:25:20 @ The servant who had been given five bags of money brought five bags more to his master. He said, "Sir, you gave me five bags of money. See, I have made five bags more money."

bwe@Matthew:25:22 @ The servant who had been given two bags of money came and said to his master, "Sir, you gave me two bags of money. I have made two bags more money."

bwe@Matthew:25:24 @ The servant who had been given one bag of money came and said, "Sir, I knew that you were a hard man. You cut grain where you did not plant. You pick fruit where you put nothing in.

bwe@Matthew:25:28 @ So take the money away from him. Give it to the one who has ten bags.

bwe@Matthew:25:29 @ Anyone who has some will get more, and he will have plenty. But he who does not get anything, even the little that he has will be taken away from him.

bwe@Matthew:25:32 @ All the nations will be gathered in front of him. He will put them in two groups like a man who takes care of sheep. He puts the sheep on one side of him and he puts the goats on the other side of him.

bwe@Matthew:25:33 @ The Son of Man will put people who are like the sheep at his right side. He will put people who are like the goats at his left side.

bwe@Matthew:25:34 @ Then the King will say to those who are at his right side, "Come! My Father has blessed you. The kingdom was made ready for you when the world was first made. Come into it now.

bwe@Matthew:26:6 @ When Jesus was in the town of Bethany, he was in the house of Simon, a man who had leprosy, a bad skin disease.

bwe@Matthew:26:13 @ I tell you the truth. Any place in the whole world where people tell the good news, people will also tell what she has done. People will remember her because of it.

bwe@Matthew:26:21 @ As they were eating, Jesus said, I tell you the truth. One of you will give me over to people who hate me.

bwe@Matthew:26:23 @ Jesus answered them, The man who is putting his hand in the dish with me is the one who will give me over.

bwe@Matthew:26:24 @ The Son of Man will go away just as the holy writings tell about him. But the man who gives him over will have trouble. It would have been better for that man if he had not been born!

bwe@Matthew:26:25 @ Judas was the one who would give Jesus over to the people who hated him. He said, Master, is it I? Jesus said, Yes, it is.

bwe@Matthew:26:31 @ Then Jesus said to them, All of you will leave me this night. The holy writings say, "I will kill the one who takes care of the sheep. And the sheep will run away."

bwe@Matthew:26:46 @ Get up. Let us go. Look, here comes the one who will give me over to people who hate me!

bwe@Matthew:26:48 @ The man who was going to help them catch Jesus had told them that he would give them a sign. He said, The man that I kiss is the one. Catch him and hold him.

bwe@Matthew:26:51 @ One of the men who was with Jesus took his sword in his hand. He hit the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear.

bwe@Matthew:26:52 @ Then Jesus said to him, Put your sword back in its place. All people who fight with a sword will be killed by a sword.

bwe@Matthew:26:55 @ At that same time Jesus said to the people, Have you come to take me with swords and sticks as you would a man who steals? Every day I sat with you in the temple and taught. But you did not try to catch me then.

bwe@Matthew:26:57 @ The men who caught Jesus took him to Caiaphas, the high priest. The scribes and the leaders had met at his house.

bwe@Matthew:26:58 @ Peter followed Jesus a long way behind. He went as far as the yard of the high priests house. He sat down with the people who worked for the high priest. He wanted to see how this would end.

bwe@Matthew:26:64 @ Jesus answered him, Yes, I am. Also I tell you that after this you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the One who has all power. You will see him coming on the clouds in the sky!

bwe@Matthew:26:68 @ They said, Christ, tell us, if you know who hit you!

bwe@Matthew:27:3 @ Judas was the man who helped them take Jesus. He saw that they had judged Jesus and were going to kill him. He was sorry for what he had done, so he brought the thirty pieces of silver money back to the chief priests and leaders.

bwe@Matthew:27:4 @ He said, I have done wrong. I have helped you take a good man who should not be killed. They said, What do we care? You look after that!

bwe@Matthew:27:7 @ They talked the matter over and bought a field that belonged to a man who made pots. They bought it for a place in which to bury strangers.

bwe@Matthew:27:17 @ So while the people were there Pilate asked them, Which one do you want me to let free for you, Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?

bwe@Matthew:27:22 @ Pilate said to them, Then what shall I do with Jesus, who is called Christ? They all said, Nail him to a cross!

bwe@Matthew:27:39 @ The people who passed by said bad things about him. They shook their heads.

bwe@Matthew:27:40 @ They said, You are the man who said you could break down the temple and build it again in three days. Save yourself! If you are really Gods Son, come down from the cross.

bwe@Matthew:27:44 @ The bad men who were also nailed to crosses with him said the same things to him.

bwe@Matthew:27:45 @ About midday, the whole land became dark and stayed dark for three hours.

bwe@Matthew:27:52 @ The graves opened. Many of Gods people who had died rose from death.

bwe@Matthew:28:4 @ The soldiers who were guarding the grave saw him and shook with fear. They fell down like dead men.

bwe@Matthew:28:5 @ The angel talked to the women. He said, Do not fear. I know you are looking for Jesus, who was nailed to a cross.

bwe@Matthew:28:11 @ While the women were going, some of the soldiers who had guarded the grave came into the city. They told the chief priests all that had happened.

bwe@Mark:1:23 @ A man who had a bad spirit in him was in the meeting house at that time.

bwe@Mark:1:24 @ He called out, Jesus of Nazareth, what do you want to do to us? Have you come to kill us? I know who you are. You are the Holy One of God.

bwe@Mark:1:32 @ That evening when the sun went down, people brought to Jesus all the sick people and those who had bad spirits.

bwe@Mark:1:34 @ He healed many sick people. He drove the bad spirits out of people. And he did not let them speak because they knew who he was.

bwe@Mark:1:40 @ A man who was sick with leprosy <FI>a bad skin disease<Fi> came to him. He kneeled down and begged Jesus saying, I know you can heal me if you want to.

bwe@Mark:2:7 @ They were thinking, Why does this man say such wrong things against God? He is not giving God respect! Who can forgive the wrong things people do? No one but God can do that.

bwe@Mark:2:15 @ Jesus was eating in Levis house. Many tax collectors and bad people also came. They sat down to eat with Jesus and his disciples. There were many who went with him.

bwe@Mark:2:17 @ Jesus heard it. He said to them, People who are well do not need a doctor. But sick people need him. I did not come to call good people. I came to call bad people to stop doing wrong things.

bwe@Mark:2:19 @ Jesus answered them, The people at a wedding cannot be sad while the man who is married is with them.

bwe@Mark:2:25 @ Jesus answered them, Have you not read what David did? He and his men who were with him were hungry.

bwe@Mark:2:26 @ He went into Gods house when Abiathar was the high priest. Some bread was there for God. It was not right for them to eat it. Only the priests have the right to eat it. But David took the bread and ate it. He also gave some of it to the people who were with him.

bwe@Mark:3:1 @ Jesus went into the meeting house again. A man was there whose right hand was thin and weak.

bwe@Mark:3:3 @ He spoke to the man whose hand was thin and weak. He said, Stand here.

bwe@Mark:3:10 @ He did this because he healed many people. All who were sick tried to touch him.

bwe@Mark:3:12 @ He told them they must not tell anyone who he was.

bwe@Mark:3:16 @ One of the twelve was Simon, whom Jesus called Peter.

bwe@Mark:3:17 @ He also chose James and his brother John, the sons of Zebedee, whom he named Boanerges, which means "Men of Thunder."

bwe@Mark:3:19 @ He also chose Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon of Canan, and Judas Iscariot, the one who gave Jesus over to people who hated him. Then Jesus and his disciples went home.

bwe@Mark:3:22 @ The scribes who came from Jerusalem also talked about Jesus. They said, Beelzebub, the chief of bad spirits, is in this man. He drives out bad spirits by the help of Beelzebub.

bwe@Mark:3:29 @ But people who say wrong things against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven. A person who does that will be punished for ever.

bwe@Mark:3:33 @ Jesus asked them, Who are my mother and my brothers?

bwe@Mark:3:34 @ Then he looked at the people who sat around him. He said, These people are my mother and my brothers!

bwe@Mark:3:35 @ Anyone who obeys God is my brother, my sister, and my mother.

bwe@Mark:4:9 @ Jesus said to them, Everyone who has ears to hear, listen!

bwe@Mark:4:10 @ Later, Jesus was alone. Then the twelve disciples and the other people who were there asked him about the stories.

bwe@Mark:4:14 @ The man who sows the seed tells Gods message.

bwe@Mark:4:15 @ Those beside the road are like people who hear the message. But as soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes it out of their hearts

bwe@Mark:4:16 @ The seed that fell on the stony ground is the same. It is like people who hear the message and as soon as they hear it they are very glad.

bwe@Mark:4:18 @ The seed that fell among the weeds is like people who hear the message.

bwe@Mark:4:20 @ But some seed fell on good ground. That is like people who hear the message and understand it. Much good comes from it. Some people are like the seed that made thirty seeds. Some people are like the seed that gave sixty. Some people are like the seed that gave a hundred.

bwe@Mark:4:23 @ Everyone who has ears to hear, listen!

bwe@Mark:4:24 @ And Jesus said, Take care how you listen. How much you give to others is how much will be given to you. You who obey God will get more than you give.

bwe@Mark:4:25 @ Anyone who has some will get more. But he who does not have anything, even the little that he has will be taken away from him.

bwe@Mark:5:14 @ Then the men who cared for the pigs ran away. They told the people in the city and all around the country about it. The people went out to see what had happened.

bwe@Mark:5:15 @ They came to Jesus. They saw the man who had the many bad spirits in him. He was sitting with clothes on and was not crazy any more. The people were afraid.

bwe@Mark:5:16 @ Those who had seen it told them what had happened to the man who used to have many bad spirits. And they told about the pigs.

bwe@Mark:5:18 @ So Jesus got into the boat again. The man who used to have the bad spirits in him begged to go with him.

bwe@Mark:5:30 @ Jesus knew right away that power to heal went out from him. He turned around among the people and said, Who touched my clothes?

bwe@Mark:5:31 @ But his disciples said to him, You see all these people pushing around you. Why do you ask, "Who touched me?"

bwe@Mark:5:32 @ He looked around to see who had done it.

bwe@Mark:6:2 @ On the Sabbath day he began to teach in the meeting house again. Many people who heard him were very much surprised and said, Where did he learn all this? Where did he get the power to do these big works?

bwe@Mark:6:4 @ Jesus said to them, Other people honour a man who is a prophet of God. But the people in his own country, his own home, and his family, do not honour him.

bwe@Mark:6:15 @ Other people said, It is Elijah. Others said, He is a prophet like the prophets of God who lived long ago.

bwe@Mark:6:27 @ Right away he sent one of the soldiers who was standing on guard. He told him to bring Johns head. The soldier went to the prison and cut off Johns head.

bwe@Mark:6:44 @ The number of men who ate was about five thousand.

bwe@Mark:6:56 @ They laid sick people by the road in villages, towns, and farms and every place he went. They begged him to let them touch his clothes. And all the people who touched him were healed.

bwe@Mark:7:10 @ Moses said, "Respect your father and your mother. Anyone who says wrong things to his father or his mother will die."

bwe@Mark:7:16 @ Everyone who has ears to hear, listen!

bwe@Mark:7:31 @ The people brought a man to Jesus who could not hear and could not talk well. They begged Jesus to put his hand on him.

bwe@Mark:7:36 @ The people were very much surprised. They said, He has done everything well. The people who could not hear can hear. The people who could not talk can talk.

bwe@Mark:8:9 @ The number of men who ate was about four thousand.

bwe@Mark:8:27 @ Jesus went with his disciples to the villages in Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, Who do people say that I am?

bwe@Mark:8:29 @ Then he asked them, But who do you say I am? Peter answered, You are the Christ.

bwe@Mark:8:35 @ Anyone who tries to keep his life will lose it. And anyone who gives up his life for my sake and for the sake of the good news will find it.

bwe@Mark:8:36 @ What good will it do a man if he gets the whole world for himself but loses his soul?

bwe@Mark:9:1 @ Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth. Some people are standing here who will not die before they see the kingdom of God come with power.

bwe@Mark:9:11 @ Then they asked Jesus, Why do the scribes <FI>who know all about the holy writings<Fi> say that first Elijah must come?

bwe@Mark:9:23 @ Jesus said to him, You say, "If you can." Anything can be done for the person who believes.

bwe@Mark:9:25 @ Jesus saw many people come running together. He talked to the bad spirit: You bad spirit who stops the boy from hearing and talking! I tell you, come out of him and do not go into him again!

bwe@Mark:9:34 @ But they said nothing, because on the road they had been talking among themselves about who was the greatest person.

bwe@Mark:9:37 @ If anyone takes in a child like this for my sake, he takes in me. If anyone takes in me, he takes in the One who sent me.

bwe@Mark:9:39 @ Jesus said, Do not stop him. Anyone who can do a great work in my name will not be quick to say wrong things about me.

bwe@Mark:10:11 @ So Jesus said, If any man sends away his wife and marries another woman, he commits adultery against her. <FI>He takes another woman who is not his wife.<Fi>

bwe@Mark:10:24 @ The disciples were surprised at his words. But Jesus said again, Children, it is very hard for people who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God.

bwe@Mark:10:26 @ They were very much surprised. They said, Then who can be saved?

bwe@Mark:10:31 @ But many people who are first will be last, and those who are last will be first.

bwe@Mark:10:32 @ Jesus and his disciples were on the road to Jerusalem. Jesus was walking in front of them. The disciples were surprised. And the people who came behind were afraid. He took the twelve disciples and began to tell them what was going to happen to him.

bwe@Mark:10:33 @ He said, We are going to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be given over to the chief priests and the scribes. They will judge him and say he must die. They will give him over to rulers who are not Jews.

bwe@Mark:10:40 @ But I cannot choose who will sit at my right hand or at my left. It has been planned who will sit there.

bwe@Mark:10:42 @ Jesus called them and said, You know the people who rule over countries make their people obey them. The great will tell the others what to do.

bwe@Mark:10:43 @ But that is not the way it is among you. Anyone among you who wants to be great must help the others.

bwe@Mark:10:44 @ Anyone among you who wants to be first shall be a servant to the others.

bwe@Mark:11:9 @ People in front of him and people behind him shouted, Praise God! God bless him who comes in the name of the Lord!

bwe@Mark:11:15 @ They reached Jerusalem. Jesus went into the temple. He began to drive out the people who were buying and selling in the temple. He threw down the tables of the money changers. He pushed down the seats of those who sold doves.

bwe@Mark:11:17 @ He taught the people, saying, The holy writings say, "My house shall be called a house for all tribes and nations, where people talk with God." But you have made it a place for people who steal!

bwe@Mark:11:28 @ They said, What right have you to do these things? Who gave you the right to do them?

bwe@Mark:11:30 @ Who gave John the right to baptise people? Did God or did men? Answer me!

bwe@Mark:12:7 @ But the men said to each other, "This is the one who will have everything when his father dies. Let us kill him. Then everything will belong to us."

bwe@Mark:12:9 @ What will the man who owned the farm do to them? He will come back and kill the men in the farm. And he will give the farm to other men to use.

bwe@Mark:12:16 @ They brought one to him. He asked, Whose picture and name is this? They answered, Caesars.

bwe@Mark:12:23 @ Now then when people rise from death, whose wife will she be? All seven of them had married her.

bwe@Mark:12:40 @ They take away the homes of women whose husbands are dead. They cover up the wrong things they do by talking to God a long time. They will be punished more!

bwe@Mark:12:42 @ A poor woman, whose husband was dead, came. She put in two small pieces of money.

bwe@Mark:13:11 @ When men take you to court, do not be troubled about what you will say. Say whatever comes to your mind at that time. It is not you who speak, but it is the Holy Spirit.

bwe@Mark:13:13 @ All people will hate you because you are true to me. But the person who keeps on being true to me until the end will be saved.

bwe@Mark:13:14 @ Daniel the Man of God said that people would put something very bad in the temple. (Let the one who reads this understand it.) When that happens, the people in Judea must go quickly to the hills.

bwe@Mark:13:15 @ A person who is on the top of a house must not go down into the house to get things.

bwe@Mark:13:16 @ Those who are working in the fields must not go back to get their coats.

bwe@Mark:13:17 @ In those days it will be very hard for women who are to have a child. It will be very hard for mothers who have babies.

bwe@Mark:13:30 @ I tell you the truth. The people who are living then will not die before all these things happen.

bwe@Mark:13:34 @ It is like a man who went to a country far away. He left his home and told each one of his servants what work he must do. Then he told the man who guards the door to watch.

bwe@Mark:14:9 @ I tell you the truth. Any place in the whole world where people tell the good news, people will also tell what she has done. People will remember her because of it.

bwe@Mark:14:13 @ He sent two of his disciples and said to them, Go into the city. There you will meet a man who is carrying a pot of water. Follow him.

bwe@Mark:14:18 @ While they were sitting at the table eating, Jesus said, I tell you the truth. One of you who is eating with me will give me over to people who hate me.

bwe@Mark:14:20 @ Jesus answered them, It is one of you twelve. It is the one who puts his hand in the same dish with me.

bwe@Mark:14:21 @ The Son of Man will go just as the holy writings tell about him. But the man who gives him over will have trouble. It would have been better for that man if he had not been born!

bwe@Mark:14:27 @ Jesus said to them, All of you will leave me this night. the holy writings say, "I will kill the one who takes care of the sheep. And the sheep will run away."

bwe@Mark:14:42 @ Get up. Let us go. Look, here comes the one who will give me over to people who hate me!

bwe@Mark:14:44 @ The man who was going to help them catch Jesus had told them that he would give them a sign. He said, The man that I kiss is the one. Catch him and take him away safely.

bwe@Mark:14:48 @ Jesus said, Have you come to take me with knives and sticks the way you would take a man who steals?

bwe@Mark:14:54 @ Peter followed far behind Jesus. He went into the yard of the high priests house. He sat down with the people who worked for the high priest. He warmed himself by the fire.

bwe@Mark:14:62 @ Jesus answered, Yes, I am. You will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the One who has all power. You will see him coming on the clouds of the sky!

bwe@Mark:14:65 @ Some people began to spit on him. They covered his face and hit him. They laughed at him and said, Tell us if you know who hit you! The guards took him away and hit him as they went.

bwe@Mark:14:66 @ Peter sat out in the yard. A servant girl who worked for the high priest came.

bwe@Mark:15:7 @ In the prison was a man named Barabbas. He had led some people who had been fighting in the city. He had killed a man.

bwe@Mark:15:12 @ Pilate asked them, Then what shall I do with the man whom you call King of the Jews?

bwe@Mark:15:29 @ The people who passed by said wrong things about him. They shook their heads and said, Ha, ha! You are the man who said you could break down the temple and build it again in three days.

bwe@Mark:15:32 @ If he is the Christ, the king of the people of Israel, he should come down from the cross now. We want to see it and believe! The bad men who were also nailed to crosses said the same things to him.

bwe@Mark:15:33 @ About midday the whole land became dark and stayed dark for three hours.

bwe@Mark:15:39 @ The captain who stood in front of Jesus saw that he died. He said, Surely, this man was Gods Son.

bwe@Mark:15:41 @ When Jesus was in Galilee, they came with him and helped him. Some other women who had come to Jerusalem with Jesus were also watching.

bwe@Mark:16:3 @ One woman said to the other, Who will roll away the big stone from the grave for us?

bwe@Mark:16:6 @ He said, Do not be surprised. You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth who was nailed to a cross. He is risen. He is not here. Look, here is where they laid him.

bwe@Mark:16:14 @ Then after that Jesus showed himself to the eleven disciples while they were eating. He said it was very bad for them not to believe and for their minds to be slow. He said they should have believed those who saw him after he rose from death.

bwe@Mark:16:16 @ The one who believes the good news and is baptised will be saved. But he who does not believe will be judged and punished.

bwe@Mark:16:17 @ These signs will be with those who believe. They will drive bad spirits out of people by using my name. They will speak new languages.

bwe@Luke:1:2 @ These things were told us by men who saw them happen from the time they began to happen. And these men helped tell the good news.

bwe@Luke:1:3 @ I have tried to find out all that has happened from the beginning. And so, Theophilus, great ruler, I myself will write you the whole story.

bwe@Luke:1:17 @ He will go ahead of the Lord. He will have the spirit and power of Elijah. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children. And he will bring back the people who do not obey, so that they will want to do what good people do. He will make people ready for the Lord.

bwe@Luke:1:35 @ The angel answered, The Holy Spirit will come to you. The power of the Highest One will be over you. That is why the holy child who is to be born will be called the Son of God.

bwe@Luke:1:36 @ Your cousin Elizabeth is also going to have a baby son, though she is an old woman. This is the sixth month for her. She is one whom people said would not have a baby.

bwe@Luke:1:43 @ Who am I that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

bwe@Luke:1:45 @ She who has believed what was told her is blessed. What the Lord said to her will come true.

bwe@Luke:1:49 @ He who has all power has done a big work for me. His name is holy.

bwe@Luke:1:50 @ He is kind to people of all times who respect him.

bwe@Luke:1:51 @ He has shown how strong he is with his arm. He has taken away people who were proud in their hearts.

bwe@Luke:1:65 @ Everyone who lived around there began to wonder at these things. And everywhere in the hill country of Judea, all these things were talked about.

bwe@Luke:1:66 @ All those who heard them thought much about them. They said, What will this child be some day? They said this because the power of the Lord was with him.

bwe@Luke:1:71 @ He said he would save us from our enemies and set us free from those who hate us.

bwe@Luke:1:79 @ That light will shine on those who are in darkness, and are going to die. That light will show us how to walk in peace.

bwe@Luke:2:15 @ The angels left them and went back to heaven. The men who were taking care of the sheep said to one another Let us go to Bethlehem and see what has happened. It is the Lord who has told us about it.

bwe@Luke:2:18 @ All those who heard them were surprised at what the shepherds had told them.

bwe@Luke:2:20 @ Then the men who were taking care of the sheep went back. They praised and thanked God for all they had heard and seen. It was just as they had been told it would be.

bwe@Luke:2:23 @ This is what is written in the law of the Lord: Every boy who is the first child of his mother will be holy for the Lord.

bwe@Luke:2:25 @ A man named Simeon was in Jerusalem. He was a good man and he loved God. He was watching and waiting for the one who would save Israel. The Holy Spirit was on him.

bwe@Luke:2:32 @ He is a light which will shine for those who do not know God. He is the one who will bring praise to your people Israel.

bwe@Luke:2:38 @ While Simeon was talking to Mary, Anna also came along and thanked God. She talked about Jesus to all the people who were waiting for the one who would set Jerusalem free.

bwe@Luke:2:47 @ All who heard him were surprised at what he knew and his answers.

bwe@Luke:3:7 @ Many people came out to John to be baptised. He said to them, You family of snakes! Who told you to run away from Gods anger that is coming?

bwe@Luke:3:11 @ John answered them, Any man who has two shirts should give one to a man who has none. Any man who has food should do the same.

bwe@Luke:4:18 @ The Spirit of the Lord is on me because he chose me to tell the good news to poor people. He has sent me to tell the prisoners they can go free, and to tell the blind people they can see. He has sent me to set free those who have been wrongly held down,

bwe@Luke:4:25 @ I tell you the truth. At the time of Elijah, there were many women in Israel whose husbands were dead. There was no rain for three years and six months. All over the country there was great trouble because there was no food.

bwe@Luke:4:27 @ Also while Elisha was the prophet of God, many people in Israel had leprosy <FI>a bad skin disease<Fi>. None of them was healed. The only one who was healed was Naaman from the country of Syria.

bwe@Luke:4:33 @ A man who had a bad spirit in him was in the meeting house. He called in a loud voice.

bwe@Luke:4:34 @ He said, Jesus from Nazareth! What do you want to do to us? Have you come to kill us? I know who you are. You are Gods Holy Man.

bwe@Luke:4:40 @ When the sun went down, the people brought to Jesus all who were sick in any way. He put his hands on every one of them and healed them.

bwe@Luke:5:9 @ He was very much surprised to see how many fish they had caught. All those who were with him were surprised too.

bwe@Luke:5:12 @ Jesus was in one of the cities and a man was there who had leprosy, a bad skin disease. When he saw Jesus, he bowed his face to the ground. He begged Jesus saying, Sir, I know you can heal me if you want to.

bwe@Luke:5:21 @ The scribes and Pharisees began to talk about this. They said, Who is this man that is not giving respect to God? No one but God can forgive anyone for the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Luke:5:31 @ Jesus answered them, People who are well do not need a doctor. But sick people need him.

bwe@Luke:5:34 @ Then Jesus said to them, The people at a wedding cannot be sad while the man who is married is with them.

bwe@Luke:6:4 @ He went into Gods house. Some bread was there for God. But David took the bread and ate it. He also gave some of it to the men who were with him. Only the priests have the right to eat that bread.

bwe@Luke:6:6 @ On another Sabbath day, Jesus went into the meeting house and taught. A man was there whose right hand was thin and weak.

bwe@Luke:6:8 @ But Jesus knew what they were thinking. He spoke to the man whose hand was thin and weak. He said, Come and stand here in front The man stood up.

bwe@Luke:6:14 @ They were Simon, whom Jesus called Peter, and his brother Andrew, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew, Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the freedom fighter, Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, the one who gave Jesus over to people who hated him.

bwe@Luke:6:20 @ Jesus looked at his disciples and said, God will make happy you who are poor. The kingdom of God is for you.

bwe@Luke:6:21 @ God will make happy you who are hungry now. You will be filled. God will make happy you who cry now. You will laugh.

bwe@Luke:6:24 @ But you who are rich will have trouble. You have already had your good times.

bwe@Luke:6:25 @ You who have all you want now will have trouble! You will be hungry. You who laugh now will have trouble. You will be sad and cry.

bwe@Luke:6:26 @ When all the people praise you, you will have trouble! The fathers of these people did the same things to those who were not true prophets of God.

bwe@Luke:6:27 @ But I say to you who hear, love your enemies. Do good things to those who hate you.

bwe@Luke:6:28 @ Bless those who use bad words about you. Ask God to do good to those who trouble you.

bwe@Luke:6:30 @ Give to every one who begs you for something.

bwe@Luke:6:32 @ If you love those who love you, what good is there in that? Even bad people love those who love them.

bwe@Luke:6:33 @ If you do good things to those who do good things to you, what good is there in that? Bad people do the same.

bwe@Luke:6:34 @ If you lend to those who will give to you, what good is there in that? Even bad people lend to bad people, if they think they will get the same from them.

bwe@Luke:6:35 @ Love your enemies. Do good things. Lend to people and do not look to get anything back. You will be paid well. You will be sons of the Highest One. He is kind to those who do not thank him and to those who are bad.

bwe@Luke:6:40 @ The one who learns is not better than his teacher. But every one who learns will be like his teacher when his teacher has finished teaching him.

bwe@Luke:6:47 @ A person comes to me. He hears what I say and obeys me. I will show you who he is like.

bwe@Luke:6:48 @ He is like a man who built a house. He dug down deep in the ground and made it stand on a rock. The water in the river came up high. The water beat hard against the house. But the house did not move, because it was built on a rock.

bwe@Luke:6:49 @ A man hears what I say but does not obey me. He is like a man who built his house on top of the ground. He did not dig down deep. The water beat hard against it and it fell with a loud noise!

bwe@Luke:7:2 @ An army officer had a servant whom he loved. The servant was sick and almost dying.

bwe@Luke:7:8 @ I myself am a man who takes orders, and I have soldiers who take orders from me. I say to one, "Go," and he goes. I say to another, "Come," and he comes. I say to my servant, "Do this," and he does it.

bwe@Luke:7:9 @ Jesus was surprised when he heard this. He turned to the people who followed him. He said, I tell you, I have not found a Jew who believes as this man does.

bwe@Luke:7:10 @ The men who had been sent to Jesus went back into the house. They found that the servant who had been sick was well.

bwe@Luke:7:12 @ He came near the gate of the town. There he met people carrying out a man who had died. He was the only son of his mother. And her husband was dead too. Many people from the city were with her.

bwe@Luke:7:14 @ Jesus came and touched the thing on which the body lay. The men who were carrying it stopped walking. Jesus said, Young man, I tell you, get up!

bwe@Luke:7:19 @ He called two of them and sent them to Jesus. He asked, Are you the One who is to come? Or shall we wait for another person?

bwe@Luke:7:20 @ When the men came to Jesus, they said, John the Baptizer sent us to you. He asks, "Are you the One who is to come? Or shall we wait for another person?"

bwe@Luke:7:21 @ At that time Jesus healed many people who were sick or had troubles or bad spirits. He made many blind people able to see.

bwe@Luke:7:22 @ He answered Johns disciples, Go tell John what you have seen and heard. Blind people see. The lame people walk. People with leprosy are healed. People who could not hear can hear. Dead people are alive again. Poor people hear the good news.

bwe@Luke:7:23 @ Happy is the person who is not troubled in his heart about me.

bwe@Luke:7:25 @ What did you go out to see? A man wearing fine clothes? People who wear fine clothes and have nice things live in kings houses.

bwe@Luke:7:28 @ I tell you, no one has ever been born who is greater than John. And yet, the smallest one in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

bwe@Luke:7:32 @ They are like children who sit in the market. They call to other children. They say, "We played music for you, but you did not dance. We cried, but you did not cry."

bwe@Luke:7:39 @ The Pharisee who had asked Jesus to his house saw this. He said to himself, If this man were a prophet of God, he would know what kind of woman is touching him. She is a bad woman.

bwe@Luke:7:41 @ Jesus said, There was a man who used to lend money to people. Two people owed him money. One man owed him five hundred pieces of silver money. The other owed him fifty pieces.

bwe@Luke:7:47 @ So I tell you, she has done many wrong things, but she has been forgiven because she loved me so much. But one who has been forgiven a little loves me only a little

bwe@Luke:7:49 @ Then those who were at the table with him began to say to themselves, Who is this man? He even forgives people for the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Luke:8:3 @ Another one was Joanna, the wife of Chuza, who worked for Herod. Another one was Susanna. And there were many others who gave what they could to help him.

bwe@Luke:8:8 @ But some seed fell on good ground and it grew well. Those plants gave a hundred times as much grain as the man sowed. When Jesus had said this, he called out, Everyone who has ears to hear, listen!

bwe@Luke:8:12 @ Some seeds fell on the road. They are like the people who hear the word of God. Then the devil comes and takes the word out of their hearts. He does not want them to believe and be saved.

bwe@Luke:8:13 @ Some seeds fell on the stones. They are like people who are glad when they hear the word. But it does not go down deep into their hearts. They believe for a short time. But when they have trouble they stop believing.

bwe@Luke:8:14 @ Some seeds fell among the weeds. They are like people who hear the word. But they think about the things of this world. They want to get money and things to be happy in this life. As they go on in life, these things push the message out of their hearts and no good comes from them.

bwe@Luke:8:15 @ Some seeds fell on good ground. They are like people who hear the word and remember it. Their hearts are honest and good. These people keep on believing, and much good comes from them.

bwe@Luke:8:16 @ No person lights a lamp and covers it with a basket or puts it under a bed. But he puts it on the place for a lamp. Then people who come in can see the light.

bwe@Luke:8:18 @ So take care how you listen. Anyone who has something will get more. But he who does not have anything, even the little that he has will be taken away from him.

bwe@Luke:8:21 @ But he said to them, These people who hear the word of God and do it, they are my mother and my brothers.

bwe@Luke:8:34 @ The men who cared for the pigs saw what happened. They ran and told it to the people in the town and in the country.

bwe@Luke:8:35 @ The people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus. They saw the man from whom the bad spirits had gone. He was sitting near the feet of Jesus. He had clothes on and was not crazy any more. The people were afraid.

bwe@Luke:8:36 @ Those who had seen it told the people how the man had been saved from the bad spirits.

bwe@Luke:8:38 @ The man from whom the bad spirits had gone begged to go with him. But Jesus sent him away.

bwe@Luke:8:45 @ Jesus said, Who touched me? Everyone said, Not I! Peter said, Master, the people are all around you and push you.

bwe@Luke:9:9 @ Herod said, I cut off Johns head. Now who is this man of whom I hear such things? He wanted to see Jesus.

bwe@Luke:9:11 @ But the people found out and they followed him. He was glad to see them and talked to them about Gods kingdom. He healed those who were sick.

bwe@Luke:9:18 @ One day Jesus was alone talking to God. His disciples were there too. He asked them, Who do people say I am?

bwe@Luke:9:20 @ Jesus said, But who do you say I am? Peter answered, You are the Christ sent by God.

bwe@Luke:9:24 @ Anyone who tries to keep his life will lose it. And anyone who gives up his life for my sake will find it.

bwe@Luke:9:25 @ What good will it do a man if he gets the whole world for himself but loses his life or spoils it?

bwe@Luke:9:27 @ I tell you the truth. Some people are standing here who will not die before they see the kingdom of God.

bwe@Luke:9:48 @ Then he said, If anyone takes in a child like this for my sake, he takes in me. And if anyone takes in me, he takes in the one who sent me. The one who takes the least or lowest place among you is the greatest.

bwe@Luke:9:50 @ But Jesus said, Do not stop him. Anyone who is not against you is on your side.

bwe@Luke:9:59 @ Jesus said to another man who followed him, Come with me. But the man said, Lord, let me go first and bury my father.

bwe@Luke:9:60 @ Jesus said to him, Let those who are dead bury their own dead people. As for you, go and tell people about Gods kingdom.

bwe@Luke:9:62 @ Jesus said to him, Any person who starts doing something and then keeps looking back is not fit for the kingdom of God.

bwe@Luke:10:7 @ Stay in that house. Eat and drink what the people give you. The one who works should have his pay for it. Do not move from one house to another house.

bwe@Luke:10:16 @ Anyone who listens to you listens to me. Anyone who does not believe you does not believe me. Anyone who does not believe me does not believe the one who sent me.

bwe@Luke:10:21 @ At that same time the Holy Spirit made Jesus very happy. Jesus said, Father, you are Lord of heaven and earth. I thank you because you have hidden these things from people who are wise and know many things. But you have shown them to people who are like children. Yes, Father. That was the way you wanted it.

bwe@Luke:10:22 @ My Father has given everything to me. No one knows who the Son is but the Father. No one knows who the Father is but the Son and those to whom the Son wants to show him.

bwe@Luke:10:23 @ Then Jesus turned to his disciples and said to them alone, God is blessing the eyes of people who see what you see!

bwe@Luke:10:25 @ A man who taught Gods law stood up and asked Jesus a question to try him out. Teacher, he said. What must I do so that I will live for ever?

bwe@Luke:10:29 @ But the man wanted to prove that he was all right. So he said to Jesus, Who is my neighbour?

bwe@Luke:10:32 @ A man who worked in the temple came along to that place also. He saw the man but he passed by on the other side.

bwe@Luke:10:35 @ The next day he gave two pieces of money to the man who was in charge of the house for strangers. He said, "Take care of this man. If it costs you more than this, I will pay you when I come back.

bwe@Luke:10:36 @ Jesus said to the teacher of the law, What do you think? Which of these three was a neighbour to the man who was caught by the bad men?

bwe@Luke:10:37 @ He said, The man who was kind to him. Jesus said, Go and do as he did.

bwe@Luke:11:4 @ Forgive us for the wrong things we have done. We forgive everyone who has done wrong to us. Do not lead us to be tested."

bwe@Luke:11:10 @ Everyone who asks will get. The one who looks will find. And the one who knocks will have the door opened for him.

bwe@Luke:11:13 @ You are wrong and yet you know how to give good things to your children. Much more, the Father in heaven will give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.

bwe@Luke:11:14 @ Jesus was driving a bad spirit out of a man who could not talk. When the spirit left him, the man could talk. The people were surprised.

bwe@Luke:11:19 @ If I drive out bad spirits by the help of Beelzebub, by whose help do your own people drive them out? Your own people will judge you for this!

bwe@Luke:11:22 @ But when a stronger man comes, he catches the man who guards his house. He will take away what is in the mans hand. And he will take his things and give them to his friends.

bwe@Luke:11:23 @ Anyone who is not with me is against me. Anyone who does not work with me, works against me.

bwe@Luke:11:26 @ Then he goes and brings seven other spirits who are worse than he is. They go in and live there. Now the man is worse than he was at first.

bwe@Luke:11:27 @ As he said this, a woman among the people called out, Happy is your mother who gave birth to you, and fed you as a baby.

bwe@Luke:11:28 @ But Jesus said, Happy are those who hear Gods word and obey it!

bwe@Luke:11:31 @ When the people are judged, the Queen from the South will stand up and speak against men who live today. She came a long way to hear the wise words of Solomon. The one who is here is greater than Solomon.

bwe@Luke:11:32 @ When people are judged, the men of Nineveh will stand up and speak against the people of today. They stopped their wrong ways when Jonah told them Gods word. And the one who is here is greater than Jonah.

bwe@Luke:11:33 @ No person lights a lamp and hides it in a hole or puts it under a basket. But he puts it on a place for a lamp. Then people who come in can see the light.

bwe@Luke:11:45 @ Then one of the men who taught Gods law said to Jesus, Teacher, when you say these things, you talk against us too.

bwe@Luke:11:49 @ That is why God, who is wise, said, "I will send prophets and messengers to them. They will kill some of them. And they will trouble some of them."

bwe@Luke:11:50 @ So the people who are living now will be punished for all the blood of the prophets of God that is on the ground since the world was made.

bwe@Luke:11:51 @ I mean all the blood from the time of Abel to the time of Zechariah. (He was killed between the holy table and the temple.) Yes, I tell you. The people who are living now will be punished for all of it.

bwe@Luke:11:52 @ You teachers of Gods law will have trouble! You have taken away the key of the door where people can go in and know what is true. You yourselves did not go in, and you stopped those who were going in.

bwe@Luke:12:4 @ You are my friends. I tell you, do not fear people who can kill your bodies. After that they cannot do anything more to you.

bwe@Luke:12:5 @ I will tell you whom you must fear. Fear the one who, after he has killed, has the power to throw into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him!

bwe@Luke:12:10 @ Everyone who says anything against the Son of Man will be forgiven. But anyone who says wrong things against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.

bwe@Luke:12:14 @ Jesus said, Man, who made me a judge over you or gave me power to divide your things?

bwe@Luke:12:20 @ But God said to him, "You are a fool! Tonight you will die. Then who will have all the things you have kept for yourself?"

bwe@Luke:12:21 @ So anyone who keeps things for himself is not rich in the way God wants him to be rich.

bwe@Luke:12:30 @ All the people who are not Jews work for these things. Your Father in heaven knows that you need them.

bwe@Luke:12:36 @ Be like men who are waiting for their master to come home from a wedding. They are ready to open the door as soon as he comes and knocks.

bwe@Luke:12:37 @ Happy the servants who are ready when the master comes! The servants who are ready when the master comes will be made happy. I tell you the truth. The master will get ready to serve them. He will set them at the table and will come and serve them.

bwe@Luke:12:42 @ The Lord said, Who is like a wise servant who can be trusted? His master will put him in charge of his other servants. He gives them food to eat at the right time.

bwe@Luke:12:48 @ But if a servant did not know and did something bad, he will be beaten only a little. To whom much has been given, from him much will be asked. When people give much to anyone, they will ask more from him.

bwe@Luke:13:1 @ Some people were there at that time who told Jesus what Pilate had done. He had killed some of the people of Galilee and put their blood with the blood of their sacrifices to God.

bwe@Luke:13:4 @ Eighteen men died when the high house in Siloam fell on them. Do you think they were worse than all the other men who lived in Jerusalem?

bwe@Luke:13:7 @ He said to the man who cared for the trees, "For three years I have come to look for fruit on this tree, but I have not found any. Cut it down. Why should it spoil my farmland?"

bwe@Luke:13:8 @ The man who cared for the trees answered, "Sir, let it stay one more year. I will dig around it and put good soil around it.

bwe@Luke:13:11 @ A woman was there who had a spirit that had made her sick for eighteen years. She had to bend down all the time and could not stand up straight.

bwe@Luke:13:17 @ When he said that, all those who had talked against him were ashamed. All the other people were very glad for all the wonderful things Jesus did.

bwe@Luke:13:27 @ But he will say, "I tell you, I do not know where you belong. Go away from me all you who do wrong! "

bwe@Luke:13:30 @ Yes, some people who are last will be first, and some who are first will be last.

bwe@Luke:13:34 @ O Jerusalem, Jerusalem! You kill the prophets of God. You throw stones to kill men who are sent to you. How often I have wanted to gather your people together as a mother hen gathers her little ones under her wings. But you would not come!

bwe@Luke:13:35 @ Now you are left alone in your house. I tell you this. You will not see me again until the time when you say, "God bless him who comes in the name of the Lord."

bwe@Luke:14:7 @ Jesus told a story to the people who were asked to eat at the house. He saw that they chose to sit at the best places.

bwe@Luke:14:9 @ Then the man who called you both will come and say to you, "Get up and let this man sit here." Then you will be ashamed. And you will go and sit down in the last place.

bwe@Luke:14:10 @ But when you are asked to go to a wedding, go and sit down in the last place. Then when the man who called you comes, he will say to you, "Friend, come to a better place." Then all the people who sit at the table will see how he respects you.

bwe@Luke:14:11 @ Everyone who puts himself up in a high place will be brought down to a low place. And everyone who puts himself down in a low place will be brought up to a high place.

bwe@Luke:14:12 @ Then Jesus said to the man who had asked him to come, When you make a dinner or a feast, do not ask your friends, or your brothers, or the people in your family, or your rich neighbours. They will repay you by making a dinner for you.

bwe@Luke:14:13 @ But when you make a dinner, ask the people who are poor, hurt, lame, or blind.

bwe@Luke:14:15 @ One of those who was sitting at the table heard this. He said, Happy is the person who will eat in the kingdom of God!

bwe@Luke:14:17 @ When the feast was ready, he sent his servant to tell the people who had been asked. He said, "Come. Everything is ready."

bwe@Luke:14:21 @ The servant came and told his master. Then the master was very angry. He said to his servant, "Go out quickly. Go on all the streets in the city. Bring here people who are poor, hurt, blind, or lame."

bwe@Luke:14:24 @ I tell you, not one of the men who were called first will eat any of my feast.

bwe@Luke:14:29 @ If you do not have enough money, you will not be able to finish it after you have made the foundation. Then all the people who see it will laugh at you.

bwe@Luke:14:33 @ In the same way, any one of you who does not give up all he has cannot be my disciple.

bwe@Luke:14:35 @ It is not good for the land or the dirt pile. People throw it away. Everyone who has ears to hear, listen!"

bwe@Luke:15:7 @ I tell you, the angels in heaven will be glad like that when one bad person stops doing wrong things. The angels will be more glad about that one person than about ninety-nine good people who do not need to change their ways.

bwe@Luke:15:15 @ So he went to stay with a man in the country who had a farm. The man sent him out to his farm to feed the pigs.

bwe@Luke:15:17 @ Then he started to get sense. He said, "My father has many men who work for him. They have plenty of food. But here I am dying because I have nothing to eat!

bwe@Luke:15:19 @ I am not good enough now to be called your son. Let me be like one of these men who work for you."

bwe@Luke:15:21 @ The son said to him, "Father, I have been a bad son. I have done wrong to God in heaven and to you. I am not good enough now to be called your son. Let me be like one of these men who work for you."

bwe@Luke:16:5 @ So he called to him everyone who owed his master something. He asked the first man, "How much do you owe my master?"

bwe@Luke:16:8 @ Then the master praised the manager who did wrong. He praised him because he did what was wise. The people of this world are wiser than the people who have the Light. They know how to get along with people like themselves.

bwe@Luke:16:10 @ Anyone who can be trusted in a little matter can also be trusted in a big matter. Anyone who does wrong in a very little matter will do wrong also in a big matter.

bwe@Luke:16:11 @ So if you could not be trusted to use money, which is bad, who will trust you to use true riches?

bwe@Luke:16:12 @ If you could not be trusted with what belonged to another person, who will give you something for yourself?

bwe@Luke:16:18 @ If a man sends away his wife and marries another woman, he commits adultery. And if the man marries a woman who has been sent away by her husband, he commits adultery.

bwe@Luke:16:19 @ There was a rich man who dressed and lived like a king every day.

bwe@Luke:16:30 @ He answered, "No, father Abraham! But if a man who had died went to them, they would stop their wrong ways."

bwe@Luke:17:1 @ Jesus said to his disciples, People will make other people do wrong. But the person who makes another person do wrong will have trouble.

bwe@Luke:17:12 @ When he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy came to him. They stood far away.

bwe@Luke:17:18 @ Is this stranger the only one who has come back to praise God?

bwe@Luke:17:24 @ When lightning comes, it lights up the whole sky. It will be like that on the day when the Son of Man comes.

bwe@Luke:17:25 @ But first he will have much trouble. The people who are living now will not believe in him.

bwe@Luke:17:33 @ Anyone who wants to keep his life will lose it. And anyone who gives up his life will keep it.

bwe@Luke:18:3 @ There was a woman in that city whose husband was dead. The woman came to the judge again and again. She said, "Save me from my enemy!"

bwe@Luke:18:7 @ When the people whom God has chosen call to him day and night, he will save them from their enemies. He may let them wait a time.

bwe@Luke:18:8 @ But I tell you, he will save them from their enemies soon. But when the Son of Man comes, will he find any people who believe in him?

bwe@Luke:18:9 @ There were some people who thought they were very good. And they thought that other people were not good. Jesus told this story to them.

bwe@Luke:18:14 @ I tell you, when this man went home, he was right with God. The other one was not. Everyone who puts himself up in a high place will be brought down to a low place. And everyone who puts himself in a low place will be brought up to a high place.

bwe@Luke:18:20 @ You know the laws, "Do not commit adultery. <FI>Do not take a man or woman who is not your husband or wife.<Fi> Do not kill. Do not steal. Do not tell lies. Respect your father and your mother."

bwe@Luke:18:26 @ Those who heard it asked, Then who can be saved?

bwe@Luke:18:32 @ He will be given over to rulers who are not Jews. They will make fun of him. They will treat him very badly. They will spit on him.

bwe@Luke:19:3 @ He wanted to see who Jesus was but he could not see him because he was a short man and there were many people around him.

bwe@Luke:19:10 @ The Son of Man came to look for and to save those who are lost.

bwe@Luke:19:12 @ So he said, A man who belonged to a respected family went to a country far away. He went to get power to rule. Then he was going to come back.

bwe@Luke:19:15 @ But he was given the power to rule and came back. Then he called the servants to whom he had given the money. He wanted to know how much money each one had made by trading.

bwe@Luke:19:24 @ Some men were standing there. He said to them, "Take the money from him. Give it to the man who has ten times as much."

bwe@Luke:19:26 @ The ruler said, "I tell you. Anyone who has some will get more. But he who does not have anything, even the little that he has will be taken away from him.

bwe@Luke:19:27 @ But where are those people who hate me and did not want me to rule over them? Bring them here and kill them right here in front of me."

bwe@Luke:19:33 @ When they were untying the animal, the men who owned it asked them, Why are you untying the animal?

bwe@Luke:19:37 @ He came near the top of the hill called the Mount of Olives. Then all the people who believed in him began to be happy. They sang out loudly, and praised God in a loud voice for all the big works they had seen.

bwe@Luke:19:38 @ They said, God bless the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven where God is praised!

bwe@Luke:19:39 @ Some of the Pharisees who were among the people said to Jesus, Teacher, tell your disciples to stop saying that.

bwe@Luke:19:43 @ The time will come when the people who hate you will put a wall all around you. They will shut you up and keep you in on every side.

bwe@Luke:19:45 @ Jesus went into the temple. He began to drive out the people who were buying and selling in the temple.

bwe@Luke:19:46 @ He said to them, It is written, "My house shall be a place where people talk with God." But you have made it a place for people who steal!

bwe@Luke:20:2 @ They said to him, Tell us what right you have to do these things. Who gave you the right to do them?

bwe@Luke:20:4 @ Who gave John the right to baptise people? Did God or did men give it to him?

bwe@Luke:20:7 @ So they answered Jesus, We do not know who gave him the right to do it.

bwe@Luke:20:10 @ At harvest time the owner sent one of his servants to the men who used the farm. He wanted to have some fruit from the farm. But the men beat the servant and sent him away without any fruit.

bwe@Luke:20:13 @ Then the man who owned the farm said, "What shall I do? I will send my dear son. Maybe they will respect him."

bwe@Luke:20:14 @ But when the men saw him they said to each other, "This is the one who will have everything when his father dies. Let us kill him. Then everything will belong to us."

bwe@Luke:20:15 @ They dragged him off the farm and killed him. What will the man who owned the farm do to them?

bwe@Luke:20:18 @ Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces. But if that stone falls on anyone, it will crush him.

bwe@Luke:20:20 @ So they watched for a chance to catch him. And they sent men to spy on him. These men acted as if they were good men. They did this because they wanted to catch him in something that he said. They wanted to give him over to the ruler who would judge and punish him.

bwe@Luke:20:24 @ So he said, Show me a piece of money. Whose picture and name are on it? They said, Caesars

bwe@Luke:20:33 @ Now then, when people rise from death, whose wife will she be? All seven of them had married her.

bwe@Luke:20:35 @ But men and women who are good enough to have a place in the next world and to be raised from death do not marry.

bwe@Luke:20:47 @ They take away the homes of women whose husbands are dead. They cover up their wrong ways by talking to God a long time. They will be punished more!

bwe@Luke:21:2 @ And he saw a poor woman whose husband was dead. She put in two small pieces of money.

bwe@Luke:21:15 @ I will give you words and sense. All those who are against you will not be able to answer your words or say they are not true.

bwe@Luke:21:21 @ Then the people in Judea must go quickly to the hills. Those who are in the city must leave it. Those who are in the country must not come into the city.

bwe@Luke:21:23 @ In those days it will be very hard for women who are to have a child. It will be very hard for mothers who have babies. There will be big trouble on the earth. God will show his anger to these people.

bwe@Luke:21:24 @ They will be killed by swords or long knives. They will be taken away as prisoners to every country. Jerusalem will be broken down by people who are not Jews. They will walk over it until the end of their allowed time.

bwe@Luke:21:32 @ I tell you the truth. People who are living then will not die before all these things happen.

bwe@Luke:21:35 @ That day will come to all people who are living on the whole earth.

bwe@Luke:22:21 @ There is a man who will give me over to my enemies. His hand is here at the table with me.

bwe@Luke:22:22 @ The Son of Man will go on as it was planned for him. But the man who gives him over will have trouble!

bwe@Luke:22:25 @ Jesus said to them, The kings of countries make their people obey them. Those who rule give themselves a good name.

bwe@Luke:22:26 @ But it must not be so among you. The one who is greatest among you must be like the most unimportant. And the leader must be like one who helps others.

bwe@Luke:22:27 @ Which man is greater, the man who sits at the table or the man who helps him? Is it not the man who sits at the table? But I am like the man who helps you.

bwe@Luke:22:36 @ He said, But this time, anyone who has money should take it and his bag too. Anyone who has no sword should sell his coat and buy one.

bwe@Luke:22:52 @ The chief priests, the captains of the temple, and the leaders of the people had come to catch Jesus. He said to them, Have you come to take me with swords and sticks, the way you catch a man who steals?

bwe@Luke:22:63 @ The men who guarded Jesus made fun of him and beat him.

bwe@Luke:22:64 @ They tied something over his eyes. Then they hit him in the face and said, Tell us if you know who hit you!

bwe@Luke:22:69 @ From this time on the Son of Man will sit beside God who has all power.

bwe@Luke:23:19 @ (Barabbas had been put in prison because he led some people who had been fighting in the city. He had killed a man.)

bwe@Luke:23:25 @ He let the other man go free. (He was the one who had been put in prison because he fought and had killed a man. He was the one the people asked Pilate to let go free.) And Pilate did to Jesus what they wanted him to do.

bwe@Luke:23:26 @ They took Jesus away. On the way, they caught a man who was coming in from the farms. His name was Simon. He was born in the country of Cyrene. They made him walk behind Jesus and carry his cross.

bwe@Luke:23:29 @ The time will come when people will say, "Happy are the women who have no children or who have never had a child."

bwe@Luke:23:39 @ One of the bad men who was hanging there said wrong things against Jesus. He said If you are the Christ, why do you not save yourself and us?

bwe@Luke:23:44 @ About noontime the whole land became dark and stayed dark for three hours.

bwe@Luke:23:49 @ All Jesus friends and the women who had come with him from Galilee stood far away. They saw all of this.

bwe@Luke:23:50 @ There was a man named Joseph. He was a member of the court. He was a good man who lived the right way.

bwe@Luke:24:10 @ The women who told these things to the apostles were Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women who were with them.

bwe@Luke:24:15 @ But even though they saw him, they did not know who he was.

bwe@Luke:24:20 @ But we were hoping that he was the one who would free the people of Israel. But that is not all. This is the third day since they did it.

bwe@Luke:24:30 @ Then they saw who he was. They knew him. And then suddenly they could not see him any more.

bwe@Luke:24:45 @ You are the men who have seen these things, and will tell people about them.

bwe@John:1:9 @ The true Light which gives light to every person who comes into the world.

bwe@John:1:12 @ But there were people who did believe in his name. They did receive him. He gave all those who received him and believed him the right to become children of God.

bwe@John:1:15 @ John talked about him. He called out saying, Here is the man I told you about. I said that the one who is coming after me is greater than I am, because he lived before I lived.

bwe@John:1:19 @ The leaders of the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem. They asked John, Who are you? John told them.

bwe@John:1:22 @ Then those priests said, Who are you? We want to give an answer to the people who sent us. What do you say about yourself?

bwe@John:1:24 @ It was the Pharisees who had sent these people to John.

bwe@John:1:26 @ John answered, I baptize people in water. But there is a man standing among you whom you do not know.

bwe@John:1:27 @ He is the one coming after me who is greater than I am. I am not even good enough to untie his shoe strings.

bwe@John:1:30 @ Here is the man I told you about. I said that the one who is coming after me is greater than I am, because he lived before I lived.

bwe@John:1:31 @ I myself did not know who he was. But I came and baptized people in water so that the people of Israel would know who he was.

bwe@John:1:33 @ I myself did not know who he was. But he who sent me to baptize people in water told me. He said, "You will see the Spirit coming from the sky on a man. That man will baptize people in the Holy Spirit."

bwe@John:1:40 @ Andrew was one of those two followers of John who heard John speak and went after Jesus. He was Simon Peters brother.

bwe@John:1:45 @ Philip went to find Nathanael. He said We have found the man about whom Moses wrote in the books of the law. The prophets also wrote about him. He is Jesus, from Nazareth. He is the son of Joseph.

bwe@John:1:47 @ Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him. He said, Here is a man who is truly of Israel. He does not fool people.

bwe@John:2:9 @ The man in charge of the feast tasted the water that was now turned into wine. He did not know where it came from, but the servants who drew the water knew. When the man had tasted it, he called the man who was being married.

bwe@John:2:15 @ Jesus tied some pieces of cord together to make a whip. Then he drove out all the people who were buying and selling in the temple. And he drove out the sheep and the cows. He threw down the tables of the money changers and their money.

bwe@John:2:16 @ He said to the people who sold doves, Take these things out of here. Do not make my Fathers house into a market place.

bwe@John:2:18 @ The leaders of the Jews said to Jesus, Who gave you the right to do this? What big work will prove it to us?

bwe@John:3:8 @ The wind blows where it wants to blow. You can hear the sound of it. But you do not know where it comes from, and you do not know where it goes. It is the same way with everyone who is born of the Spirit.

bwe@John:3:13 @ No one has ever gone up to heaven-only the One who came down from heaven. That One is the Son of Man who is in heaven.

bwe@John:3:15 @ Then everyone who believes in him will not die, but will live for ever.

bwe@John:3:16 @ God loved the world so very, very much that he gave his only Son. Because he did that, everyone who believes in him will not lose his life, but will live for ever.

bwe@John:3:18 @ Everyone who believes in the Son will not be judged. But everyone who does not believe in him is judged already, because he does not believe in the name of Gods only Son.

bwe@John:3:20 @ Everyone who does wrong things hates light. He does not come to the light because he is afraid people will see what he does and will say it is bad.

bwe@John:3:21 @ But everyone who does what is right comes to the light. He wants people to see that God helps him to do what is right.

bwe@John:3:29 @ The wife belongs to the man who has married her. The mans best friend may stand and listen. And when he hears what that man says, he is very glad for him. So what I hear makes me very glad in the same way.

bwe@John:3:31 @ The one who comes from heaven is greater than all other people. The one who is of the earth talks about things on earth. So the one who comes from heaven is greater than all.

bwe@John:3:36 @ He who believes in the Son will live for ever. He who does not believe in the Son will not live. God will be very angry with him for ever.

bwe@John:4:9 @ Jesus answered her, You do not know what God gives people. And you do not know who is asking you for a drink. If you knew him, then it is you who would have asked for a drink of water. He would give you living water.

bwe@John:4:11 @ Are you greater than our father Jacob who gave us this well? He drank water from this well, also his children and cattle.

bwe@John:4:12 @ Jesus answered her, Anyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.

bwe@John:4:13 @ But anyone who drinks the water that I will give him will never be thirsty. The water I give him will become a well inside of him that will never be dry. It will give him life for ever.

bwe@John:4:21 @ You worship one whom you do not know. But we know whom we worship. The Saviour will come of the Jews.

bwe@John:4:22 @ But the time is coming, yes, the time is here already, when those who worship God will worship him in spirit and in a true way. My Father is looking for that kind of people to worship him.

bwe@John:4:23 @ God is Spirit. Those who worship him must do so in spirit and in a true way.

bwe@John:4:25 @ Jesus said to her, I who am talking to you am he.

bwe@John:4:28 @ She said to the people, Come, I will show you a man who has told me everything I have done. Can this be the Christ?

bwe@John:4:33 @ Jesus said to them, My food is to obey the one who sent me and to finish his work.

bwe@John:4:35 @ The one who gathers the harvest receives a reward for it. He gathers a harvest that will live for ever. Then the one who sows and the one who gathers will both be happy.

bwe@John:5:4 @ An angel came down into the water at a certain time and made it move. The first person who stepped into the water when it moved was healed of any sickness that he had.

bwe@John:5:5 @ A man was there who had been sick for thirty eight years.

bwe@John:5:10 @ So the leaders of the Jews talked to the man who was healed. They said, It is the Sabbath day. It is not right for you to carry your bed.

bwe@John:5:11 @ But he answered them, The man who healed me said to me, "Take up your bed and walk."

bwe@John:5:12 @ They asked him, Who is the man who told you to take up your bed and walk?

bwe@John:5:13 @ The man who was healed said, I do not know who he is. Many people were at the place and Jesus had gone away.

bwe@John:5:15 @ The man went away and told the leaders of the Jews that it was Jesus who had healed him.

bwe@John:5:21 @ My Father raises people who were dead, and gives them life. So his Son gives life to anyone he wants to.

bwe@John:5:23 @ He did this so that all people would respect the Son, just as they respect his Father. My Father has sent his Son. Anyone who does not respect his Son does not respect the Father.

bwe@John:5:24 @ I tell you the truth. The person who hears what I say and believes in him that sent me will live for ever. He will not be judged. He has already passed from death to life.

bwe@John:5:25 @ I tell you the truth. The time is coming. Yes, the time is here when the dead people will hear the voice of the Son of God. Those who hear his voice will live.

bwe@John:5:28 @ Do not be surprised at what I say. The time is coming when all who are in the graves will hear his voice.

bwe@John:5:29 @ They will come out of the graves. Those who have done what is good will come out to live. But those who have done what is wrong will come out to be punished.

bwe@John:5:37 @ And my Father who sent me has himself talked about me. You have never heard him speak and you do not know what he is like.

bwe@John:6:10 @ Jesus said, Tell the people to sit down. Much grass was there. The number of men who sat down was about five thousand.

bwe@John:6:11 @ Then Jesus took the bread and thanked God for it. He gave it to the disciples and they divided it among those who were sitting. He did the same thing with the fish. The people had all they wanted.

bwe@John:6:22 @ The people who stayed back on the land had seen one boat only. They had seen the disciples get in it and go away without Jesus.

bwe@John:6:29 @ Jesus answered them, The work that God asks you to do is to believe in the one whom he has sent.

bwe@John:6:31 @ Our fathers ate bread in the wilderness. The holy writings say, "He gave them bread from heaven to eat." Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth. It was not Moses who gave you that bread from heaven. But my Father gives you true bread from heaven.

bwe@John:6:33 @ He who comes down from heaven is the bread that God gives. He is the one who gives life to the world.

bwe@John:6:35 @ Jesus said, I am the bread that gives life. Anyone who comes to me will never be hungry. Anyone who believes in me will never be thirsty.

bwe@John:6:37 @ All those whom my Father gives me, they will come to me. I will never turn anyone away who comes to me.

bwe@John:6:38 @ I did not come down from heaven to do what I myself want to do. I came to do what the one who sent me wants me to do.

bwe@John:6:40 @ My Father wants everyone who sees his Son and believes in him to live for ever. I will raise him up on the last day.

bwe@John:6:44 @ No one can come to me if my Father does not draw him. He sent me. I myself will raise up the one who comes to me. I will bring him back to life on the last day.

bwe@John:6:45 @ The prophets wrote, "God will teach all people." So then, every person who listens to his words and learns what he says, he will come to me.

bwe@John:6:46 @ But no person has seen my Father. The only one who has seen him is the one who comes from God. He has seen my Father.

bwe@John:6:47 @ I tell you the truth. The person who believes in me will live for ever.

bwe@John:6:50 @ Here is bread that comes down from heaven. The person who eats this bread will never die.

bwe@John:6:54 @ Anyone who eats me and drinks my blood will live for ever. I will raise him up at the last day.

bwe@John:6:56 @ Anyone who eats me and drinks my blood is in me and I in him.

bwe@John:6:57 @ My Father is living. He sent me. I have my life from him. In the same way, the person who eats of me will live because of me.

bwe@John:6:58 @ This bread which came down from heaven is not like the bread that your fathers ate. They ate bread but they died. Anyone who eats this bread from heaven will live for ever.

bwe@John:6:60 @ Many of his disciples heard it. They said, This is a hard teaching. Who can listen to it?

bwe@John:6:64 @ But even so, some of you do not believe me. Jesus knew right from the beginning which ones of them would not believe. He knew who was going to give him over to people who hated him.

bwe@John:6:68 @ Simon Peter answered, Lord, to whom shall we go? It is you who has told us how we may live for ever.

bwe@John:6:71 @ Jesus was talking about Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. Judas was the one who was going to give him over to people who hated him. Judas was one of these twelve disciples.

bwe@John:7:16 @ Jesus answered the people, I am not teaching you my teaching. It is the teaching of the one who sent me.

bwe@John:7:18 @ The person who speaks from his own mind only wants to be great himself. But the person whom God has sent wants to show that God is great. That person is true. He is not a bad man.

bwe@John:7:20 @ The people answered Jesus, A bad spirit is in you! Who is trying to kill you?

bwe@John:7:28 @ Jesus was teaching in the temple. He spoke loudly saying, You know me and you know where I come from. I have not come in my own power. The one who sent me is true. He is the one you do not know.

bwe@John:7:33 @ Jesus said, I will stay with you a short time longer. Then I will go back to him who sent me.

bwe@John:7:35 @ The Jews said to one another, Where will he go that we cannot find him? Will he go to our people who are living in other countries? Will he teach them?

bwe@John:7:39 @ This is what Jesus meant: those who believe in him would receive the Spirit. At that time no one had received the Holy Spirit because Jesus had not yet been lifted up to heaven

bwe@John:7:50 @ Nicodemus, the man who came to Jesus by night, was one of them.

bwe@John:8:3 @ The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman to Jesus. They had caught her having sex with a man who was not her husband. They made the woman stand in front of them.

bwe@John:8:5 @ The law of Moses tells us that the people who do that should be killed with stones. What do you say?

bwe@John:8:7 @ They kept on asking him. He stood up and said to them, The one among you who has never done any wrong thing may throw the first stone at her.

bwe@John:8:12 @ Then Jesus talked to the people in the temple. He said, I am the Light of the world. The one who comes with me will never walk in the dark, but he will have light that gives life.

bwe@John:8:16 @ But even if I do judge, I judge right. I am not alone. My Father who sent me is with me.

bwe@John:8:18 @ I talk about myself, and my Father who sent me talks about me.

bwe@John:8:24 @ That is why I said, "You will die doing wrong things." If you do not believe that I am who I said I am, then you will die doing wrong things.

bwe@John:8:25 @ They said to him, Who are you? Jesus answered, I am what I told you from the beginning.

bwe@John:8:26 @ I have many things to say to you and to judge you in many things. But he who sent me is true. I tell the world what he has told me.

bwe@John:8:29 @ He who sent me is with me always. I always do what he wants me to do.

bwe@John:8:31 @ Jesus said to the Jews who believed in him, If you obey my word, you are truly my disciples.

bwe@John:8:34 @ Jesus answered them, I tell you the truth. People who do wrong things are not free. They become a slave of the wrong things they do.

bwe@John:8:47 @ The person who comes from God listens to what God says. You do not come from God. That is why you do not listen to me.

bwe@John:8:50 @ I do not want to make myself great. There is one who makes me great. He judges the matter.

bwe@John:8:53 @ Are you greater than our father Abraham and the prophets of God who died long ago? Who do you make yourself out to be?

bwe@John:9:1 @ On his way out of the temple Jesus saw a man who had been born blind.

bwe@John:9:4 @ There is one who has sent me. I must do his work while it is still daylight. Night is coming. Then it will be too dark to work.

bwe@John:9:8 @ His neighbours and other people had seen him when he was blind. They said, Is not this the same man who used to sit here and beg?

bwe@John:9:11 @ He answered them, That man whose name is Jesus made some mud. He rubbed it on my eyes and told me to go and wash them in the water hole Siloam. And when I had washed my eyes, I could see.

bwe@John:9:13 @ They brought to the Pharisees the man who had been blind.

bwe@John:9:17 @ Then they asked the man who had been born blind, What do you say about the man who healed you? He answered, I say he is a prophet from God.

bwe@John:9:18 @ But the leaders of the Jews did not really believe what they heard about the man. They did not believe that first he had been blind and now was able to see. So they called the parents of the man who could now see.

bwe@John:9:19 @ Tell us, they said. Is this your son who you say was born blind? How is it that now he can see?

bwe@John:9:21 @ But we do not know how it is that he can now see. We do not know who healed him. Ask him. He is old enough to talk for himself.

bwe@John:9:24 @ Then again they called the man who had been blind. They said to him, You must praise God for this. We know that the man who healed you is a bad man.

bwe@John:9:30 @ The man who had been blind said, This surprises me! He healed me and yet you do not know where he comes from!

bwe@John:9:31 @ We know that God does not listen to bad people. But God listens to the person who shows him respect and who obeys him.

bwe@John:9:32 @ Before this, no one has ever healed a man who was born blind. Such a thing has not been heard of since the world was made.

bwe@John:9:36 @ He answered, Sir, who is the Son of God? Tell me, so that I may believe in him.

bwe@John:9:37 @ Jesus said, You have already seen him. The person who is talking to you now, he is the Son of God.

bwe@John:9:39 @ Jesus said, I came into the world so that people may be judged. I came so that those who are blind may see. And I came so that those who see may become blind.

bwe@John:10:1 @ Then Jesus went on to say, I tell you the truth. A person must get to the sheep through the door. Anyone who climbs over the wall to get in is a bad man and steals things. He has come to steal the sheep.

bwe@John:10:2 @ But the man who comes in through the door, he is the one who takes care of the sheep.

bwe@John:10:8 @ All those who came before me are bad people and steal things. They came to steal the sheep. But the sheep did not listen to them.

bwe@John:10:9 @ I am the door. Anyone who comes in through me will be saved. He will go in and out as he wants to, and will have food to eat.

bwe@John:10:11 @ I am the good shepherd. I am the one who really cares for the sheep. The good shepherd is willing to die to save his sheep.

bwe@John:10:12 @ Some people work for pay. The one who does that is not the one who really cares. The sheep do not belong to him. When he sees a bad animal coming, he will leave the sheep and run away. He will let the animal take the sheep and make the sheep run away.

bwe@John:10:14 @ I am the good shepherd, the one who really cares for the sheep. I know my sheep and my sheep know me.

bwe@John:10:16 @ I have some other sheep which are not with these sheep. I must bring them also. They will listen to my voice. Then all the sheep will be together and there will be one person who cares for all of them.

bwe@John:10:21 @ But others said, A person who has a bad spirit in him does not say the things this man says. Can a bad spirit make blind people see?

bwe@John:10:25 @ Then Jesus said, I have already told you and you did not believe it. My Father has given me the power to do big works. These works tell you who I am.

bwe@John:11:2 @ Mary was the same woman that put oil on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair. It was her brother Lazarus who was sick.

bwe@John:11:3 @ So the sisters sent someone to tell Jesus. They said, Lord, the one whom you love is sick.

bwe@John:11:16 @ Then Thomas, who was called the Twin, said to the other disciples, Let us all go and die with Jesus.

bwe@John:11:25 @ Jesus said, I am the one who will raise people up and give them life. The person who believes in me will live, even though he has died.

bwe@John:11:26 @ Anyone who is living and who believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?

bwe@John:11:27 @ She said, Yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Christ. I believe that you are the Son of God who was to come into the world.

bwe@John:11:31 @ The Jews who were in the house to comfort Mary saw her get up quickly and go out. They went after her. They said, She is going to the grave to cry.

bwe@John:11:33 @ Jesus saw her crying. He saw the Jews who came with her crying also. Then his heart was troubled very much.

bwe@John:11:42 @ I know that you always hear me. But I have said this so that the people who are standing here might believe that you have sent me.

bwe@John:11:45 @ When they saw the things Jesus did, many of the Jews who had come with Mary believed on Him.

bwe@John:11:50 @ You do not understand. It is better for us if one person dies for the people. Then the whole nation will not be broken down.

bwe@John:11:52 @ Jesus would die, not only for those people, but he would gather together all of Gods people who are out in different places.

bwe@John:12:2 @ The people made supper for Jesus. Martha helped give food for the people, and Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with Jesus.

bwe@John:12:4 @ Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, was there. He was one of the disciples, the one who was going to give Jesus over to the people who hated him.

bwe@John:12:9 @ Many of the Jews knew that Jesus was at Bethany. So they came because Jesus was there. But they also came to see Lazarus, whom Jesus had raised from death.

bwe@John:12:12 @ The next day Jesus went to Jerusalem. Many people who were at the feast heard that he was coming.

bwe@John:12:20 @ Some of the people who came to worship God at the feast were Greek people.

bwe@John:12:21 @ They came to Philip who was from Bethsaida in Galilee. They said, Sir, we want to see Jesus.

bwe@John:12:25 @ Anyone who tries to keep his life will lose it. Anyone who gives up his life in this world will live for ever in the next world.

bwe@John:12:26 @ If anyone wants to do my work, he must go where I go. Then he and I will be together. My Father will honour everyone who works for me.

bwe@John:12:34 @ The people answered him, Our law book tells us that Christ will stay here for ever. Why do you say, "The Son of Man will be raised up from the earth"? Tell us who this Son of Man is.

bwe@John:12:35 @ Then Jesus said to them, You have light for a short time longer. Walk while you have the light so that you will not need to walk in the dark. The person who walks in the dark cannot see where he is going.

bwe@John:12:36 @ Believe in the light while you have the light, so that you may be a people who have the light in you. When Jesus had said this, he left them. They did not know where he was.

bwe@John:12:38 @ What the prophet Isaiah said came true. He said, Lord, who has believed what we told them? Who has believed even though they have seen the power of Gods hand?

bwe@John:12:44 @ Jesus called out, Anyone who believes in me does not believe just in me, but in the one who sent me.

bwe@John:12:45 @ Anyone who sees me sees the one who sent me.

bwe@John:12:46 @ I am a light and have come into the world. Anyone who believes in me will not be in the dark.

bwe@John:12:48 @ The one who will not believe in me and will not listen to what I say will be judged anyway. The same things that I have said will judge him on the last day.

bwe@John:12:49 @ I have not said this from my own mind, but my Father who sent me told me what to say. He told me what to tell you.

bwe@John:13:1 @ Before the Passover Feast had started, Jesus saw that the time had come for him to leave this world. The time had come for him to go back to his Father. He loved his own people who were in the world. And he loved them the same way right to the end.

bwe@John:13:2 @ He and his disciples were eating together. The devil had already put it into Judas heart to give Jesus over to people who hated him. (Judas was the son of Simon Iscariot.)

bwe@John:13:10 @ Jesus said, A person who has bathed himself needs to wash his feet only. He is all clean. You are clean, but not all of you.

bwe@John:13:11 @ Jesus knew who was going to give him over to people who hated him. That is why he said, You are not all clean.

bwe@John:13:16 @ I tell you the truth. The servant is not better than his master. The one who is sent is not better than the one who sent him.

bwe@John:13:18 @ I am not talking about all of you but I know the people I have chosen. So Gods word comes true. The holy writings say, "He who is eating my bread has turned against me."

bwe@John:13:19 @ I am telling you this now before it happens. So when it happens you will believe who I am.

bwe@John:13:20 @ I tell you the truth. The person who receives the one I send, receives me. He that receives me, receives the one who sent me.

bwe@John:13:21 @ When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in his heart. He said, I tell you the truth. One of you will give me over to people who hate me.

bwe@John:13:24 @ Simon Peter nodded to that disciple. He said, Tell us who he is talking about.

bwe@John:13:25 @ He who was at Jesus right side said to Jesus, Lord, who is it?

bwe@John:14:9 @ Jesus said to him, Philip, you mean to say that I have been with you all this time and yet you do not know me? The person who has seen me has seen my Father also. Why do you say, "Show us your Father"?

bwe@John:14:12 @ I tell you the truth. The person who believes in me will do the big work that I do. And he will do even bigger work because I go to my Father.

bwe@John:14:21 @ He who knows the things I tell him to do and does them, really loves me. My Father will love him and I also will love him. I will show him who I am.

bwe@John:14:24 @ The person who does not love me does not obey me. The word which you hear is not my word. It is my Fathers word. He is the one who sent me.

bwe@John:14:26 @ But the Holy Spirit is the one who will help you. My Father will send him in my name. He will teach you everything that I have said to you. His Helper will remind you of all that I said.

bwe@John:15:1 @ I am the real fruit tree. My Father is the One who takes care of the tree.

bwe@John:15:5 @ I am the fruit tree and you are the branches. I will be in the person who is in me. That person will have a fruitful life. But you can do nothing without me.

bwe@John:15:21 @ They will do all these things to you because you are true to me. They do not know the one who sent me.

bwe@John:15:23 @ The person who hates me hates my Father also.

bwe@John:16:5 @ But now I am going back to him who sent me here. Yet not one of you is asking me, "Where are you going?"

bwe@John:16:7 @ Anyway, I am telling you the truth. It is better for you if I go away. If I do not go away, the one who is to help you will not come to you. But if I go away, I will send him to you.

bwe@John:17:3 @ You are the only true God. If they know you, and Jesus Christ whom you sent, they will live for ever.

bwe@John:17:6 @ I have shown these men who you really are. They are men whom you gave me from the world. They belonged to you and you gave them to me. They have obeyed you.

bwe@John:17:12 @ While I was with them, I took care of them in your name, which you gave me. I have taken care of them. Only one of them is lost. That is the one who was born to be lost. What your book says came true.

bwe@John:17:20 @ I do not ask this for these people only; I ask it also for the people who will believe in me when they hear what these people say.

bwe@John:17:25 @ Father, you are the one who is right. The world has not known you. But I have known you. These people know that you have sent me.

bwe@John:17:26 @ I have told them who you are. I will tell them again and again. Then they will love each other as much as you have loved me. And I will live in them.

bwe@John:18:2 @ Jesus had gone to this place often with his disciples, so Judas knew where the place was. He was the one who gave Jesus over to the people who hated him.

bwe@John:18:4 @ Jesus knew everything that was going to happen to him. So he went out and said to them, Who are you looking for?

bwe@John:18:5 @ They answered, Jesus from Nazareth. Jesus said to them, I am he. Judas, who had given Jesus over to them, was standing with them.

bwe@John:18:7 @ So Jesus asked them again, Who are you looking for? And they said, Jesus from Nazareth.

bwe@John:18:16 @ But Peter stood by the gate outside. The other disciple who knew the high priest talked to the servant at the door and brought in Peter.

bwe@John:18:20 @ Jesus answered him, I have talked so that anyone who wanted to could hear me. I have always taught in the meeting houses and in the temple. That is where the Jews always go. I have not said anything in a secret way.

bwe@John:18:22 @ When he had said this, one of the officers who stood there hit Jesus. He said, Is that the way you answer the high priest?

bwe@John:18:26 @ A servant was there. He was of the same family as the one whose ear Peter had cut off. He said, Did I not see you in the garden with him?

bwe@John:18:37 @ So Pilate said, So you really are a king then? Jesus answered, You say that I am a king. The reason that I was born was that I should tell what is true. That is why I came into the world. Everyone who likes what is true listens to what I say.

bwe@John:18:40 @ Then they all shouted again, Not this man, but Barabbas! Barabbas was a man who had stolen things.

bwe@John:19:11 @ Jesus said, You would have no power over me if God did not give you power. So then, the man who gave me up to you has done something worse than you.

bwe@John:19:12 @ After that Pilate tried to let Jesus go free. But the Jews shouted, If you let this man free, you are not Caesars friend! Anyone who makes himself a king is fighting against Caesar!

bwe@John:19:26 @ Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing near. He said to his mother, Woman, see your son!

bwe@John:19:31 @ It was the day before the Sabbath day. The Jewish leaders did not want the bodies to stay on the cross on the Sabbath day because it was a big day. So they begged Pilate to break the legs of those who had been nailed to crosses. Then they could be taken away.

bwe@John:19:35 @ The man who saw it told what he saw, so that you may believe. What he said is true and he knows that it is true.

bwe@John:19:37 @ They also say, They shall look at the one into whom they stuck the spear.

bwe@John:19:39 @ Nicodemus also came. He was the one who had come to Jesus at night. He brought with him a heavy bag of sweet-smelling spices called myrrh and aloes. It was mixed together.

bwe@John:20:2 @ So she ran and met Simon Peter and the other disciple, whom Jesus loved. She said to them, They have taken the Lord out of the grave! We do not know where they have laid him!

bwe@John:20:8 @ Then the other disciple, who got there first, also went in. He saw and believed.

bwe@John:20:15 @ Jesus said to her, Woman, why are you crying? Who are you looking for? She thought he was the man who took care of the garden. So she said to him, Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him. I will take him away.

bwe@John:20:23 @ Whoever you make free from the wrong things they have done will be free. Whoever you do not make free from the wrong things they have done will not be free.

bwe@John:20:29 @ Jesus said to him, You yourself have seen me. Is that why you now believe? God will bless people who believe though they have not seen me.

bwe@John:21:7 @ That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, It is the Lord! As soon as Simon Peter heard it was the Lord, he put on his coat and his belt. He had taken off some clothes to work. Then he jumped into the water.

bwe@John:21:12 @ Jesus said to them, Come and eat. The disciples were all afraid to ask him, Who are you? They knew it was the Lord.

bwe@John:21:20 @ Peter turned around. The disciple whom Jesus loved was coming with Jesus also. He was the one who was at Jesus right side at the supper table. He had said to Jesus, Lord, who will give you over to people who hate you?

bwe@Acts:1:19 @ All the people who live in Jerusalem know about this. In their language they named the field Akeldama, which means The Field of Blood.)

bwe@Acts:1:21 @ Here are men who have been with us all the time that the Lord Jesus was with us.

bwe@Acts:1:23 @ They took two men. One was Joseph, named Barsabbas, who had another name Justus. The other man was Matthias.

bwe@Acts:2:5 @ Crowds of Jews were staying in Jerusalem. They had come from every country in the world. They were good men who believed in God.

bwe@Acts:2:7 @ They were all very much surprised and said to each other, These men who are speaking, are they not all from Galilee?

bwe@Acts:2:9 @ We people from the countries of Parthia and Media and Elam all hear the wonderful things God has done. So also do the people who live in the countries of Mesopotamia, and in Judea in Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, in Phrygia, and Pamphylia, and in Egypt, and in some parts of Lybia around Cyrene, people from the city of Rome who are now living in Jerusalem, both Jews and those who joined themselves to the Jews, the people from Crete and Arabia. These men from Galilee are speaking in our own languages.

bwe@Acts:2:14 @ Peter stood up with the eleven apostles. He shouted, You men of Judea and all who stay in Jerusalem, listen to me! I will tell you the truth.

bwe@Acts:2:18 @ In those days I will send my Spirit on the men and women who serve me and I will speak through them.

bwe@Acts:2:21 @ And anyone who calls out to the Lord will be saved."

bwe@Acts:2:36 @ So let all the people of Israel know this: God has made Jesus to be Lord and Christ. This is the same Jesus whom you nailed to the cross.

bwe@Acts:2:39 @ This promise is for you and your children and for all those whom the Lord our God calls, even though they are far away.

bwe@Acts:2:41 @ Then those who gladly received his words and believed were baptised. That same day about three thousand new believers joined them.

bwe@Acts:2:46 @ And every day the believers kept on gathering in the temple. They ate bread in each others homes. They ate their food gladly and with open hearts. They praised God. All the people respected them. Day by day, the Lord added to the church those who were saved.

bwe@Acts:3:2 @ There was a man who had been born lame. He was carried and was laid at the gate of the temple every day. The gate was called Beautiful. He was brought there to beg. He asked for money from the people who went into the temple.

bwe@Acts:3:10 @ And they knew that this was the man who sat begging at the temple gate which was called Beautiful. They were very much surprised at what had happened to him. They could hardly believe it.

bwe@Acts:3:13 @ The God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and of our fathers, has made his Son Jesus great. You gave him up to Pilate. You did not want to believe who he was. You did not want him back when Pilate agreed to let him go free.

bwe@Acts:3:14 @ You would not receive the one who was holy and good. You asked for a bad man, who killed people, to be given to you.

bwe@Acts:3:15 @ You killed the one who gives life, the one whom God brought back from death. We saw it and are telling people about it.

bwe@Acts:3:16 @ This man whom you see and know, believed in the name of Jesus Christ. This mans faith in that name has healed him. Yes, believing in Jesus Christ has made him well here in front of you all.

bwe@Acts:3:23 @ And everyone who does not obey that Prophet will be cut off from his people altogether."

bwe@Acts:3:25 @ You are the people who have received what the prophets promised. And you have received the agreement which God made with your fathers. He said to Abraham, "Through your children all the nations of the earth will receive blessing."

bwe@Acts:4:4 @ But many of the people who heard them speak the word of God, believed what they said. The number of men who believed was about five thousand.

bwe@Acts:4:14 @ They saw the man who had been healed standing beside them. So they could say nothing against them.

bwe@Acts:4:16 @ They said, What shall we do to these men? All the people who live in Jerusalem know about this big work they have done. And we cannot say they did not do it.

bwe@Acts:4:22 @ The man who had been healed was more than forty years old.

bwe@Acts:4:25 @ Our father David was your servant. Through him you said by the Holy Spirit, "Why are the people who are not Jews so angry? And why do the people plan things for nothing?

bwe@Acts:4:27 @ It is true that Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with Jews and those who were not Jews here in this city. They met to make secret plans against your holy Son Jesus, whom you made Christ.

bwe@Acts:4:34 @ None of them was in need of anything. Those who owned fields and houses sold them. They brought the money to the apostles. Then the apostles gave each one what he needed.

bwe@Acts:4:36 @ There was a man named Joseph, a Levite. He was born in the country of Cyprus. The apostles called him Barnabas. That means "one who helps."

bwe@Acts:5:5 @ As Ananias heard Peters words, he fell down and died. All who heard these things were very much afraid.

bwe@Acts:5:9 @ Then Peter said to her, Why did you two agree together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen, I hear the footsteps of the men who buried your husband. They are at the door. They will carry you out too.

bwe@Acts:5:11 @ Then all the church people, and all the people who heard about this were very much afraid.

bwe@Acts:5:12 @ The apostles did many signs and wonderful things for the people who met together in the place called Solomons porch.

bwe@Acts:5:16 @ Many people also came from the cities around Jerusalem. They brought others who were sick and those who were controlled by bad spirits. Every one of them was healed.

bwe@Acts:5:32 @ We know these things are true. So does the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him.

bwe@Acts:5:36 @ Before this time, there was a man named Theudas. He tried to make people believe that he was a great man. He had about four hundred followers. He was killed, and all of his followers were scattered, and the whole thing ended.

bwe@Acts:6:1 @ At that time more and more people joined the disciples. Then there was trouble about a certain matter. The Jews who spoke the Greek language complained against the other Jews. They said that each day when the food was being divided, their women whose husbands were dead did not get their part.

bwe@Acts:6:3 @ So then, brothers, you choose seven men who you know are good men. Choose men who are full of the Holy Spirit and are wise. We will give them the work to divide the food.

bwe@Acts:6:5 @ This pleased all the people. The men they chose were Stephen, a man who believed God and was full of the Holy Spirit, Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus from Antioch who had joined the Jews.

bwe@Acts:6:9 @ But some of the Jews argued with Stephen, and said he was wrong. (They belonged to the meeting place of the Free Men. They were Jews who came from Cyrene, Alexandria, Cilicia and Asia Minor.) They did not agree with Stephen.

bwe@Acts:6:10 @ But they could not say anything against his wise words and the Spirit by whom he spoke.

bwe@Acts:6:13 @ They brought in the men who told lies about him. They said, This man is always saying wrong things about this holy place and the laws.

bwe@Acts:6:15 @ Then all the judges who sat in the court looked at him and they saw that his face was like the face of an angel.

bwe@Acts:7:2 @ Stephen replied, Men, brothers and fathers, listen to me. When our father Abraham was in the country of Mesopotamia, before he lived in the country of Haran, the God who is great and wonderful came to him.

bwe@Acts:7:7 @ And God said, "I will judge the people who make them slaves. After that, they will come out of that land and serve me here."

bwe@Acts:7:8 @ God made the agreement of circumcision with Abraham. Abraham had a son Isaac. He made the mark of circumcision on the childs body and circumcised him on the eighth day. Isaac had a son Jacob, and Jacob had twelve sons who were our fathers.

bwe@Acts:7:13 @ The second time they went, Joseph told his brothers who he was. And Pharaoh found out who Josephs family was.

bwe@Acts:7:18 @ Then a new king who did not know Joseph ruled over Egypt.

bwe@Acts:7:27 @ But the one who was fighting his neighbour pushed Moses away. He said, "Who made you our ruler and our judge?

bwe@Acts:7:35 @ This is the same Moses the people would not accept when they said, "Who made you our ruler and our judge?" This is the one God sent to be their ruler and to make them free when he spoke through the angel in the small tree.

bwe@Acts:7:36 @ It was Moses who led the people out of Egypt. He had done wonderful things and signs there, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness, for forty years.

bwe@Acts:7:37 @ This is the same Moses who said, "God will raise up one of your brothers to be a prophet, as he did me. Listen to him."

bwe@Acts:7:38 @ This is the same Moses who was with Gods people in the wilderness at the hill called Mount Sinai. He was with the angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers of long ago.It was he who received the words of life to give to us.

bwe@Acts:7:40 @ They said to Aaron, "Make gods to lead us. We do not know what has happened to this Moses who brought us out of Egypt."

bwe@Acts:7:45 @ Our fathers brought that tent with them when they came to this country. Joshua was their leader. God put aside the people who lived here first. Our fathers kept that tent with them until the time of David.

bwe@Acts:7:46 @ God blessed David who asked God to let him make a better house for Jacobs God.

bwe@Acts:7:47 @ But it was Solomon who built a house for him.

bwe@Acts:7:51 @ You hard-hearted people! You have hearts and ears like the people who are not Jews. You always fight against the Holy Spirit just as your fathers did long ago.

bwe@Acts:7:52 @ What did your fathers do to the prophets of God? They made a lot of trouble for every one of them. They killed the ones who told that the Right and True One would come. He is the One you gave up to be killed. You are the killers.

bwe@Acts:7:58 @ They put him out of the city and threw stones at him. (Those who had talked against him laid their clothes down by the feet of a young man named Saul.)

bwe@Acts:8:4 @ The people who left Jerusalem went all around telling the good news about Jesus.

bwe@Acts:8:7 @ Many people who were held by bad spirits were made free from them. The spirits came out of them crying loudly. Many other sick people were healed too. People who could not stand, and others who were lame, were healed.

bwe@Acts:8:9 @ But there was one man named Simon, a witch-doctor, who fooled the people of Samaria. He tried to make people believe that he could do big things.

bwe@Acts:8:19 @ He said, Give me this power, too, so that anyone on whom I put my hands will receive the Holy Spirit.

bwe@Acts:8:34 @ Then the man from Ethiopia asked Philip, Please tell me, who is the prophet talking about, himself or some other man?

bwe@Acts:9:5 @ Saul said, Who are you, Lord? The Lord said, I am Jesus. You are troubling me.

bwe@Acts:9:7 @ The men who had come with Saul stood there. They did not say a word. They heard a voice but did not see anyone.

bwe@Acts:9:14 @ The chief priests have given him power in this city to put into prison all those who call on your name.

bwe@Acts:9:15 @ The Lord said, Go, I have chosen him to take my name to the people who are not Jews, to kings, and to the people of Israel also.

bwe@Acts:9:21 @ All the people who heard him were surprised. They said, This man killed the people who called on Jesus name in Jerusalem. He came here to catch them and tie them and take them to the chief priests!

bwe@Acts:9:29 @ He talked to the Jews who spoke the Greek language. But they did not agree with Saul, and so they made plans to kill him.

bwe@Acts:9:32 @ While Peter was travelling through all the towns, he came to visit Gods people who lived in the city of Lydda.

bwe@Acts:9:33 @ There he saw a man named Aeneas who was sick. He could not stand up. He had been on his bed for eight years.

bwe@Acts:9:35 @ All the people who lived at Lydda and Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.

bwe@Acts:9:39 @ Peter got up and went with them. When he got there, they took him to the room upstairs. Women whose husbands were dead stood there crying. They showed Peter the clothes and coats that Dorcas had made for them while she was with them.

bwe@Acts:9:43 @ Peter stayed in Joppa for many days. He was with a man named Simon, who made skins into leather.

bwe@Acts:10:5 @ Send men to Joppa to call Simon, whose other name is Peter.

bwe@Acts:10:6 @ He is staying with Simon, the man who makes skins into leather. His house is by the sea. Peter will tell you what you should do.

bwe@Acts:10:7 @ When the angel which spoke to him had gone, Cornelius called two of his house servants. He also called one of the soldiers who believed in God and who always helped him.

bwe@Acts:10:17 @ I have seen a strange thing, Peter said to himself. I wonder what it all means. He was thinking about all this. And the men whom Cornelius sent had asked the way to Simons house. Now they stood at the gate.

bwe@Acts:10:21 @ Then Peter went down to the men whom Cornelius had sent to him. He said, Here I am. You are looking for me. Why have you come?

bwe@Acts:10:27 @ Peter talked to him and went in with him. He saw many people who had come together.

bwe@Acts:10:28 @ He began to talk with them. He said, You yourselves know it is against our law for a Jew to visit and be friends with someone who is not a Jew. But God has shown me that I should not call any man unholy or unclean.

bwe@Acts:10:32 @ Send men to Joppa to call for Simon Peter. He is staying with Simon, the man who makes skins into leather. His house is by the sea."

bwe@Acts:10:35 @ But he takes anyone who obeys him. He takes anyone who does what is right. It does not matter to what nation they belong.

bwe@Acts:10:38 @ God gave Jesus of Nazareth the Holy Spirit and power. Jesus went about doing good deeds. He healed all those who were held by the devil. God was with him.

bwe@Acts:10:43 @ All the prophets tell about him. They say, "Everyone who believes in him will have his wrong ways forgiven through his name."

bwe@Acts:10:44 @ While Peter was saying this, the Holy Spirit came on all those who heard the message.

bwe@Acts:10:45 @ The believers who came with Peter were Jews. They were very much surprised that the Holy Spirit was also sent to those who were not Jews. 46,

bwe@Acts:11:1 @ The apostles and other Christian brothers were in Judea. They heard that some people who were not Jews had also believed Gods message.

bwe@Acts:11:3 @ They asked, Why did you visit people who are not Jews? Why did you eat with them?

bwe@Acts:11:13 @ He told us that he had seen Gods angel standing in his house. The angel said to him, "Send men to Joppa to call Simon whose other name is Peter.

bwe@Acts:11:17 @ God gave then the same gift as he gave to us who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ. If God gave them this gift, how could I stop him? I am only a man.

bwe@Acts:11:18 @ When the people heard this, they were satisfied. They praised God saying, God has allowed the people who are not Jews to turn to him and live.

bwe@Acts:11:20 @ Some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene. They went to Antioch. They also spoke to those who were not Jews, and they told them about the Lord Jesus.

bwe@Acts:11:26 @ When he found him, he took him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with all who believed in Jesus Christ. They taught many people. Antioch was the first place where the disciples were called Christians.

bwe@Acts:11:29 @ Then the disciples decided to help the Christian brothers who lived in Judea. They would each one send what he could.

bwe@Acts:12:20 @ Now Herod was angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. But they got Blastus to speak to the king for them. Blastus was one of the men who worked in the kings house. They came to Herod together. They wanted to make peace with him because their country got its food from his country.

bwe@Acts:13:1 @ In the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers. They were Barnabas, Simeon Niger, Lucius from Cyrene, Manaen who grew up with Herod the ruler, and Saul.

bwe@Acts:13:9 @ Then Saul, who is also called Paul, being filled with the Holy Spirit, looked at him.

bwe@Acts:13:16 @ Then Paul stood up and put out his hand. He said, Men of Israel and you who worship and fear God, please listen to me.

bwe@Acts:13:25 @ When John was finishing his work, he said, "Who do you think I am? I am not the one. But wait, someone else will come after me. I am not good enough to untie his shoe strings."

bwe@Acts:13:26 @ Men and brothers, sons of Abraham, and all of you who worship God, the news of this way to be saved has been sent to us.

bwe@Acts:13:27 @ The people who live in Jerusalem and their rulers did not know who this Jesus really was. They did not understand the words of the prophets of God long ago which were read every Sabbath day. But even so, they did what the prophets had said they would do. They judged him.

bwe@Acts:13:41 @ They said, "Look, you people who despise everything. You will look in wonder before you die. I will do something in your time. I will do something that you will not believe even if someone told you what it is."

bwe@Acts:13:43 @ The meeting was finished. There were many Jews, also those who were not Jews but worshipped God. They followed Paul and Barnabas. Paul and Barnabus kept talking to the people and told them to keep on living in the way that will bring Gods blessing.

bwe@Acts:13:46 @ But Paul and Barnabas did not fear the Jewish leaders. They said, We had to tell Gods word to you first but you will not listen to it. By that you are saying you Jews are not good enough to live for ever. So we will go to the people who are not Jews.

bwe@Acts:13:47 @ That is what the Lord told us to do. He said, "I have made you to be a light to the people who are not Jews. You will tell people everywhere in the world how to be saved."

bwe@Acts:13:48 @ Those who were not Jews heard this. They were glad and they thanked God for his message. All those who had been chosen to live for ever believed.

bwe@Acts:13:50 @ But the leaders of the Jews talked to the leading women who worshipped God and to the chief men of Antioch. They made plenty of trouble for Paul and Barnabas. They made them leave that part of the country.

bwe@Acts:14:2 @ But the Jews who did not believe said wrong things about them. They spoiled the minds of those who were not Jews so that they hated the Christians.

bwe@Acts:14:5 @ Then some of those people who were not Jews joined together with the Jews and their leaders. They made a plan to give the apostles much trouble and to kill them with stones.

bwe@Acts:14:12 @ They named Barnabas, Jupiter. And they named Paul, Mercury, because he was the one who talked.

bwe@Acts:14:27 @ When they reached the city, they called all the church people together. They told them all that God had done for them. They said, Now God has opened the way to believe for those who are not Jews.

bwe@Acts:15:3 @ So the church people sent them on their way. They passed through the districts of Phoenicia and Samaria. They told them that some who were not Jews were believing in God. This news made all the Christian brothers very happy.

bwe@Acts:15:5 @ But some of the believers who belonged to the Pharisee group stood up and said, They must be circumcised <FI>like the Jews<Fi>. We must tell them to keep all the laws of Moses.

bwe@Acts:15:7 @ After much talking about it, Peter stood up. He said, Men and brothers, you know what happened in the first days. God chose me to tell the good news to those who are not Jews. They believed.

bwe@Acts:15:12 @ Then all the people stopped talking. They listened to what Paul and Barnabas had to say. They told them about all the signs and wonderful things that God had helped them to do among the people who were not Jews.

bwe@Acts:15:14 @ Simeon has told us how God came the first time to the people who are not Jews. God chose some of them to belong to him and be his people.

bwe@Acts:15:17 @ Then all the other people will find God, even those who are not Jews but who belong to me. So says the Lord, who is doing all these things."

bwe@Acts:15:19 @ So now, this is what I think. We should not trouble those who are not Jews but who have turned to God.

bwe@Acts:15:20 @ We should write them a letter and tell them what they must not do. They must not eat food that has been given to idols. They must not have sex with someone who is not their husband or wife. They must not eat the meat of animals that are killed by choking. They must not taste blood.

bwe@Acts:15:21 @ Since the times of long ago there have been men who told about Moses in every city. They read his laws in the meeting places every Sabbath day.

bwe@Acts:15:22 @ Then the apostles, and the leaders, and all the church people chose men from among themselves. They sent them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They chose Judas, whose other name was Barsabbas, and Silas. They were leaders among the Christian brothers.

bwe@Acts:15:23 @ They sent a letter with them. It said, The apostles, the church leaders, and the Christian brothers send greetings to the Christians who are not Jews in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia.

bwe@Acts:15:33 @ They stayed there for a while. Then the brothers sent them back to those who had sent them. They sent a greeting of peace with them.

bwe@Acts:16:13 @ On the Sabbath day we went out of the city to the river. We thought this was a place where people met to talk with God. So we sat down and talked to the women who had come there.

bwe@Acts:16:16 @ One day we were going to the meeting place where people talked with God. We met a girl who had a bad spirit. She used to tell people what was going to happen. Her masters received much money when she did this.

bwe@Acts:17:3 @ He proved these things from the writings. He said. It was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise again from death. And this Jesus, whom I am talking about, is the Christ.

bwe@Acts:17:4 @ Some of the people believed him and they followed Paul and Silas. Some of them were Greek people who worshipped God. And some were leading women.

bwe@Acts:17:17 @ In the meeting place he talked with the Jews and those who believed in the true God. In the market every day, he talked to people he met there.

bwe@Acts:17:18 @ There were some wise men who believed the teachings of Epicurius. They believed the teaching of other wise men called Stoics. Some of them began to talk with Paul. And some said, What does this talker have to say? Others said, He seems to be talking about new gods. This was because he was telling them about Jesus and how he was raised from death.

bwe@Acts:17:21 @ All the people of Athens and the strangers who lived there passed their time in one way. They liked to tell and to hear some new thing.

bwe@Acts:17:25 @ Men cannot worship him by things they make with their hands because he does not need anything. He is the one who gives life and breath and everything else to all people.

bwe@Acts:17:26 @ God made one man. From that one man he has made all the nations of men to live on the whole earth. He has given to each nation a certain time and a certain place to live.

bwe@Acts:17:31 @ God has set a day when he will judge the whole world in the right way. He has chosen a man to do this. He has proved to all people who the man is. He has raised him from death.

bwe@Acts:17:34 @ But some men followed him and believed. Among those who believed was Dionysius. He was a judge in the Areopagus court. And a woman named Damaris believed. There were others also.

bwe@Acts:18:6 @ But the people talked back to Paul. And they said wrong things about him. Paul shook his clothes and said to them, If you are lost, it is your own fault, not mine! From now on I will go to those who are not Jews.

bwe@Acts:18:7 @ So he left. He went to the house of a man named Justus who worshipped God. His house was next to the meeting place.

bwe@Acts:18:8 @ Crispus was the head ruler of the meeting house. He and his whole family believed in the Lord. Many of the people in Corinth heard and believed. And they were baptised.

bwe@Acts:18:27 @ Apollos decided to go into Achaia. The Christian brothers wrote to the disciples there and asked them to receive him. When he reached Achaia, he helped very much those who believed. They believed because God was kind to them.

bwe@Acts:19:4 @ Then Paul said, John baptised people when they stopped their wrong ways. He told people that they should believe on the one who would follow him. That one is Jesus.

bwe@Acts:19:10 @ This went on for two years, and all the people who lived in the province of Asia, both the Jews and the Greeks, heard the Lords word.

bwe@Acts:19:11 @ God did big works through Paul. Even some pieces of cloth he had touched were carried to sick people and they were healed. Also, people who had bad spirits in them were made free.

bwe@Acts:19:13 @ Some Jews were there who travelled about from place to place. They had power over bad spirits like witch-doctors. They tried to make people free from bad spirits by using the name of the Lord Jesus. They said to the spirits, I tell you, in the name of Jesus, the one Paul talks about, come out!

bwe@Acts:19:14 @ There was a Jew named Sceva. He was a chief priest. He had seven sons who did this.

bwe@Acts:19:15 @ But the bad spirit answered, I know Jesus and I know Paul. But who are you?

bwe@Acts:19:16 @ And the man who had the bad spirit in him jumped on them. He beat them all because he was stronger than they were. Their bodies were bleeding and their clothes were torn. They ran out of the house.

bwe@Acts:19:18 @ Many of the people who believed, told God all the bad things they used to do.

bwe@Acts:19:27 @ This will spoil our work. Not only that, but people will not respect the house of the great idol goddess Diana any more. All the people in Asia and in the whole world worship her now. But they will despise her!

bwe@Acts:19:37 @ The men whom you have brought here have not taken anything from the house. They have not even said anything wrong about our goddess.

bwe@Acts:19:38 @ Now then, if Demetrius and the men who work with him have any complaint, let them take it to law. We have a court and we have judges.

bwe@Acts:20:28 @ The Holy Spirit has made you leaders over his people. Watch yourselves. Like one who takes care of his sheep, so you must take care of the church people. They are the Lords people. He gave his blood for them.

bwe@Acts:20:32 @ And now, my brothers, I give you to God. I leave with you his word which brings blessing. That word is able to make you strong. It will give you your share in the good things of God promised by him. He gives these good things to people who are pure and holy.

bwe@Acts:20:35 @ I have always shown you that you must work hard, as I have. You must help those who cannot work. By so doing you are remembering the words of the Lord Jesus. He said, "It makes you more happy to give something than to get something."

bwe@Acts:21:8 @ The next day we left and came to Caesarea. We went into the house of Philip. He was a man who went out telling the good news. He was one of the seven helpers in the church.

bwe@Acts:21:9 @ He had four daughters who spoke words from God. They were not married.

bwe@Acts:21:11 @ When he came to us, he took Pauls belt. He tied his own hands and feet with it. Then he said, The Holy Spirit has told me that in the same way the leaders of the Jews in Jerusalem will tie the man who owns this belt. They will give him over to the people who are not Jews.

bwe@Acts:21:19 @ First, Paul greeted them. Then he told them one by one the things God had done as he worked among the people who were not Jews.

bwe@Acts:21:20 @ When they heard it, they praised the Lord. They said to Paul, Brother, there are many thousands of Jews who believe. They all say we must obey the law of Moses.

bwe@Acts:21:21 @ They have heard that you teach all the Jews who live in other lands. They heard that you tell them not to obey Moses law: that they need not circumcise their children like the Jews do; and they can leave the Jewish ways of living.

bwe@Acts:21:23 @ Now then, do the thing we tell you. We have four men who have made a promise.

bwe@Acts:21:25 @ We sent a letter to those who are not Jews and have believed. Here is what we told them they must not do. They must not touch things that have been given to idols. They must not taste blood. They must not eat the meat of animals that were killed by choking. And they must not take part in any kind of wrong sexual behaviour between men and women.

bwe@Acts:21:28 @ They shouted, All you men of Israel, come and help us! This is the man who teaches everyone everywhere not to respect our people. He says we need not obey the law or respect this temple. And what is more, he has brought Greek people into the temple. He has made this holy place unclean.

bwe@Acts:21:33 @ Then the officer came up and took Paul. He had him tied with two chains. Then he asked who he was and what he had done.

bwe@Acts:21:37 @ Just as the soldiers were going to take Paul into their army house, he said to the officer, May I tell you something? So, you speak the Greek language! said the officer. I thought you were the man from the country of Egypt who made trouble a while ago. I thought you were the one who led four thousand bad men into the desert.

bwe@Acts:22:4 @ I troubled very much the people who believed this Way. I even killed them. I had men and women tied and put into prison.

bwe@Acts:22:8 @ I said, "Who are you, Lord?" He answered, "I am Jesus of Nazareth. You are troubling me."

bwe@Acts:22:9 @ The men who were with me saw the light. They were afraid. But they did not hear the one who spoke to me.

bwe@Acts:22:12 @ A man named Ananias was there. He obeyed the law of Moses, and all the Jews who lived there spoke well of him.

bwe@Acts:22:14 @ He said, "The God of our fathers has chosen you to know his will. He chose you to see the One who is right and to hear him speak.

bwe@Acts:22:19 @ And I said, "Lord, they know that I put in prison those who believed in you. I beat them in all the meeting houses.

bwe@Acts:22:20 @ And I stood by and let people kill Stephen. He was one who talked for you. I looked after the clothes of the men who killed him."

bwe@Acts:22:21 @ But the Lord said to me, "Go! I will send you far away to the people who are not Jews."

bwe@Acts:22:25 @ When they had tied him with ropes, Paul said to the captain who was standing by, Is it right for you to beat a man who belongs to Rome without judging his case?

bwe@Acts:22:29 @ Then the men who were going to beat him left him. The officer was afraid when he knew Paul was a Roman, because he had tied him up.

bwe@Acts:23:2 @ Ananias, the high priest, said to those who were standing near Paul, Hit his mouth!

bwe@Acts:23:4 @ The people who stood near Paul said, Do you say a wrong thing like that to Gods high priest?

bwe@Acts:23:9 @ There was much shouting. Some of the clever men who were Pharisees got up. They said, We do not think this man has done wrong. Perhaps some angel or spirit really did speak to him.

bwe@Acts:23:13 @ There were more than forty Jews who made this secret plan together.

bwe@Acts:23:23 @ The commanding officer called two officers to him. He said, Get two hundred soldiers ready by nine oclock tonight to go to Caesarea. Send seventy men with them who will ride on horses and two hundred men who will carry spears.

bwe@Acts:23:30 @ When I heard that the Jewish leaders were planning to catch him, I sent him to you at once. I told those who are making complaints against him that they must bring the matter to you.

bwe@Acts:23:32 @ The next day the soldiers went back to the barracks. Only the men who were riding horses went with Paul.

bwe@Acts:23:34 @ He read the letter. Then he asked Paul what country he came from. He heard that Paul was from Cilicia. Then he said, I will hear all you have to say when the men who have made the complaint come here. He ordered Paul to be kept in the house which is called Herods palace.

bwe@Acts:24:8 @ He told those who have complaints against him to come to you. Ask him yourself and you will find out from him about all these complaints we have brought against him.

bwe@Acts:25:5 @ Let the men among you who are able come with me. If Paul has done anything wrong, then they can talk against him.

bwe@Acts:25:7 @ When Paul came in, the Jewish leaders who had come from Jerusalem stood around Paul. They talked much against him. But they could not prove that the things they said were true.

bwe@Acts:25:16 @ I told them that the Romans do not do it that way. They do not punish a man until he has met those who talk against him. Then he has a chance to speak for himself.

bwe@Acts:25:19 @ But instead, they had a quarrel with him about the things they believe in. The quarrel is about a man named Jesus who died. Paul said he is alive.

bwe@Acts:26:5 @ They have known me for a long time. They know, if they would tell it, that I lived like the Pharisee group. They obey the law better than any others who worship God the way we do.

bwe@Acts:26:13 @ I was on the road at midday, king Agrippa, and I saw a bright light. It came from the sky and was brighter than the light of the sun. It shone all around me and the men who were travelling with me.

bwe@Acts:26:15 @ I said, "Who are you, Lord?" And the Lord said, "I am Jesus, the one you are troubling.

bwe@Acts:26:17 @ I will keep you safe from your own people, the Jews. And I will keep you safe from those who are not Jews. I am sending you to them.

bwe@Acts:26:18 @ I send you to them to open their eyes. Then they will turn from darkness to light. You are to take them out of Satans power and turn them to God, to be forgiven of their wrong ways. Then they will be among those who are made clean and pure by believing in me."

bwe@Acts:26:20 @ I told the good news to the people of Damascus and Jerusalem. Then I told it all over Judea. I went to those who are not Jews. I told everyone that they must stop doing wrong things and turn to God. I told them they must show by the way they live that they have stopped doing wrong things.

bwe@Acts:26:23 @ They said Christ must suffer. They said he would be the first person to rise from death. He would be the first person to bring news of light to the Jews and those who are not Jews.

bwe@Acts:26:29 @ Right away or later, said Paul. I wish that all who hear me today might be what I am. That is, what I am without these chains.

bwe@Acts:26:30 @ Then king Agrippa stood up. Festus and Bernice and those who were sitting there with them stood up also.

bwe@Acts:27:24 @ He said, "Paul, do not be afraid. You must stand before Caesar. And see, God has given you the lives of all these men who are travelling with you."

bwe@Acts:27:43 @ But the officer wanted to save Paul, so he stopped the soldiers. He told the people, Those of you who can swim, jump into the water first and get to the land.

bwe@Acts:28:16 @ When we came to Rome, Paul was allowed to stay in a house by himself with the soldier who guarded him.

bwe@Acts:28:28 @ Paul said, Therefore know this. The message that God will save them has been sent to those who were not Jews. They will listen to it.

bwe@Acts:28:30 @ Paul stayed in Rome for two whole years in a house he paid money to live in. He was glad to see all who came to him.

bwe@Romans:1:7 @ I send greetings to all the Christians who live in the city of Rome. God loves you and has called you to be his people. May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you. In their kindness may they give you peace.

bwe@Romans:1:14 @ This is something I must do for the Greek people and for all other people. I must do it for people who are wise and for people who are not wise.

bwe@Romans:1:16 @ I am not ashamed of the good news of Jesus Christ. The good news is the power God uses to save every one who believes. The good news was for the Jews first, but also for those who are not Jews.

bwe@Romans:1:17 @ The good news shows how God puts a person right. God puts a person right when that person believes in his Son and keeps on believing. The holy writings say, A person who is put right because he believes, will live for ever.

bwe@Romans:1:23 @ They did not worship God who cannot die. But they worshipped things made to look like a man who does die. They worshipped things made to look like birds and animals and snakes.

bwe@Romans:1:25 @ They would not believe what was true about God. They believed a lie. They worshipped and worked for something that was made by God. They did not worship God-God who made all things. He is the one to worship for ever. Amen. May it be so!

bwe@Romans:1:32 @ They know that God says that people who do such things should die. Even so, they not only do them, but they praise other people who do them.

bwe@Romans:2:2 @ We know that God judges people who do such things. And he judges them by what is true.

bwe@Romans:2:3 @ Man, you judge people who do such things and yet you do them yourself. Do you think that God will not judge you?

bwe@Romans:2:7 @ He will give life for ever to people who keep on doing good. These people want to have glory and honour from God, and to live for ever.

bwe@Romans:2:8 @ But God will be very angry with the people who think of themselves first before others. They do not obey what is right. They do wrong things.

bwe@Romans:2:9 @ Every one who does what is wrong will have much trouble and a hard time. This will happen to the Jews first, then to those who are not Jews.

bwe@Romans:2:10 @ And every one who does what is good, will be made great. He will have honour and peace. This will happen to the Jews first and then to those who are not Jews.

bwe@Romans:2:12 @ All those who do not know the law <FI>of God given to Moses<Fi> and did what was wrong, will die. But they will not be judged by the law. All those who know the law and did what was wrong will be judged by the law.

bwe@Romans:2:13 @ (God does not say people are good because they have heard the law. But people who obey the law will be called good people.

bwe@Romans:2:19 @ You are sure that you can lead people who are like blind men. You are like a light for people who are in the dark.

bwe@Romans:2:20 @ You are sure that you can tell foolish people what is right. You can teach people who are like children. You know what you need to know and you know what is true because you have the law.

bwe@Romans:2:24 @ The holy writings say, People who are not Jews say wrong things about the name of God. They do it because of what you Jews do.

bwe@Romans:2:25 @ Circumcision of the body is a good thing if you obey the law. But if you break the law, you are like a man who has not been circumcised with this mark of the Jew.

bwe@Romans:2:26 @ So if a man who has not been circumcised obeys the law, will he not be like a man who has been circumcised?

bwe@Romans:2:29 @ If a person is a Jew inside, he is really a Jew. It is God who praises him, not people. True circumcision is done in the heart. It is in the spirit, not in the body. Such people are not praised; but God praises them.

bwe@Romans:3:8 @ Some people say wrong things about us. They say that we say, Let us do wrong things so that good things will happen. People who say such things should be punished.

bwe@Romans:3:9 @ So what shall we say? Are we Jews any better than other people? No, we are not! I have already shown that all men, both Jews and people who are not Jews have done wrong things.

bwe@Romans:3:19 @ We know that everything the law says, it says to the people who have the law. Then no one can say a word for themselves. All the people in the world will be brought to God to be judged.

bwe@Romans:3:22 @ God puts people right with himself when they believe in Jesus Christ. He does this for all who believe. They are all alike.

bwe@Romans:3:26 @ God also shows that he is right now. He does this when he makes right any person who believes in Jesus.

bwe@Romans:3:30 @ He will put right people who have been circumcised <FI>the Jews<Fi> because they believe. And he will also put right people who are not circumcised when they believe.

bwe@Romans:4:5 @ But no person can work to put himself right with God. It is God alone who makes a bad person right. The one who believes in him-even a bad person is put right.

bwe@Romans:4:7 @ David said, God blesses people who have been forgiven the wrong things they have done. God covers over the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Romans:4:9 @ Does God bless only people who have been circumcised? Or does he also bless those who are not? We say, because Abraham believed God, God called him a good man. His faith made him right with God.

bwe@Romans:4:11 @ Abraham was circumcised as a sign. It was a sign that he was a good man, because he believed when he was not yet circumcised. That makes him the father of all people who believe, even those who are not circumcised. God says they are good people.

bwe@Romans:4:12 @ That makes him also the father of those who are circumcised. I mean people who are circumcised and do as our father Abraham did. Even when he was not circumcised, he believed.

bwe@Romans:4:14 @ If the world will belong to people who obey the law, it is of no use to believe God. And the promise is no good.

bwe@Romans:4:16 @ That is why people must believe. Because God is kind, he makes the promise sure for all of Abrahams children. The promise is for those who have the law and also for those who believe as Abraham did. He is the father of us all.

bwe@Romans:4:24 @ They say it for us too. God will say we are put right if we believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from death.

bwe@Romans:5:11 @ Not only is that true, but it is through our Lord Jesus Christ that we can enjoy God. This is for all who have been brought back to God by him.

bwe@Romans:5:14 @ Yet death ruled over people from Adams time to Moses time. It even ruled over the people who were not as wrong as Adam. Adam was like a person who would come later.

bwe@Romans:5:17 @ One man did a wrong thing. And so death ruled over people because of that one man. God has been kind to people and given them his free gift. That gift is to make people right with God. People who take that gift will live and rule because of one man, Jesus Christ.

bwe@Romans:6:7 @ Anyone who has died no longer does wrong things.

bwe@Romans:6:13 @ Do not use your bodies to do wrong things. But give yourselves to God like men who have been raised from death to life. Give your bodies to God and use them to do good things.

bwe@Romans:7:1 @ My brothers, I am saying this to you people who know the law. Do you not know that the law is master over a person only while he lives?

bwe@Romans:7:4 @ In the same way my brothers, you died when Christ died. And you are free from the law. Now you belong to another person. You belong to the one who has been raised from death. Because of that, we are able to do what God wants us to do.

bwe@Romans:7:6 @ But now we have been made free from the law. We died, and so we are no longer slaves to the one who was our master. Now we are slaves to God in our new life. This new life is ruled by the Spirit. We do not work for the old written law.

bwe@Romans:7:17 @ So now it is no longer I who do it, but my wrong ways in me.

bwe@Romans:7:20 @ If I do the thing I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but the wrong thing in me that does it.

bwe@Romans:7:24 @ I am a very sad man. Who will save me from this body that will make me die?

bwe@Romans:7:25 @ Thank God for Jesus Christ our Lord who will do it! So this is the way it is. In my mind I am a slave to do the law of God, but in my body I am a slave to do the law of wrong things.

bwe@Romans:8:1 @ So now those who belong to Christ Jesus will not be judged.

bwe@Romans:8:7 @ People who think about the things of this life are Gods enemies. They do not obey Gods law. They cannot obey it.

bwe@Romans:8:8 @ People who do what their bodies want cannot please God.

bwe@Romans:8:11 @ God raised Christ Jesus from death. Does Gods Spirit live in you? Then God will also give life to your bodies which die. He does this through his Spirit who lives in you.

bwe@Romans:8:14 @ All who do what Gods Spirit leads them to do are Gods sons.

bwe@Romans:8:19 @ The whole world is waiting for the time when the sons of God will be seen.

bwe@Romans:8:22 @ We know that the whole world has been crying. It has had much pain until now.

bwe@Romans:8:28 @ We know that God works out everything for the good of those who love him. They are the people who are part of his plan.

bwe@Romans:8:31 @ So what shall we say about this? If God is on our side, who can be against us?

bwe@Romans:8:33 @ Who will say anything against Gods chosen people? For it is God himself who says they have been put right with him.

bwe@Romans:8:34 @ Who will say they are not right? Jesus Christ died. Yes, he was raised from death. He is at the right side of God. And he talks to God for us.

bwe@Romans:8:35 @ Who can take us away from Christs love? We may have trouble. We may have hard times. People may make us suffer because we believe. We may have no food to eat and no clothes to wear. We may be in danger. We may be killed with big knives. Can any of these things take us away from Christs love?

bwe@Romans:9:5 @ God will do what he said he would do. Not all who are Jews belong to the real Israel.

bwe@Romans:9:6 @ Not all the people in Abrahams family are his children. But the holy writings say, It is Isaacs family who will be called your family.

bwe@Romans:9:7 @ This means that not all who were born in Abrahams family are Gods children. God promised Abraham a son <FI>Isaac<Fi>. His children <FI>the Jews<Fi> are the ones that God called Abrahams true family.

bwe@Romans:9:11 @ When the children were not yet born, they had done nothing good or bad. God chooses the people he wants. He does not choose people because of what they have done. He chooses people who will answer his call. So he said to Rebecca, The older one will be a slave of the younger one.

bwe@Romans:9:18 @ So you will ask me, Why does God still blame us? Who can fight against what God has planned?

bwe@Romans:9:19 @ But you are only a man. Will you tell God what to do? Can the pot say to the man who made it, Why did you make me like this?

bwe@Romans:9:20 @ The person who makes pots has power over the mud. He can make two different pots out of one pile of mud. One pot will be fine and another will not be fine. Can the potter not make them so?

bwe@Romans:9:21 @ God has a right to be very angry if he wants to be. He has the right to show his power. God was very angry with some people who deserved to die. And yet he waited a long time before he did anything to them.

bwe@Romans:9:23 @ That means he also called us. He called not only those who are Jews, but also those who are not Jews.

bwe@Romans:9:28 @ And Isaiah also said, The Lord who has power, left some of our children. If he had not, we would have been like Sodom. We would have been destroyed like Gomorrah.

bwe@Romans:9:29 @ So what shall we say? The people who are not Jews have been put right with God. They did nothing to make themselves right with God. But they were put right because they believed God.

bwe@Romans:9:32 @ That is what the holy writings say, I put in Zion a stone on which people will hit their feet. It is a rock that will make them fall down. Anyone who believes in him will not be ashamed.

bwe@Romans:10:4 @ Christ has made an end to the law as a way of getting right with God. Everyone who believes in him is put right with God.

bwe@Romans:10:5 @ Moses wrote this: A man who obeys the law will live by it.

bwe@Romans:10:6 @ But the holy writings also speak about those who are put right by believing: Do not say in your heart, "Who will go up into heaven?" (That means, Who will go up to heaven to bring Christ down?)

bwe@Romans:10:7 @ Do not say, "Who will go down into the hole that has no bottom?" (That means, Who will go down to bring Christ up from the dead people?)

bwe@Romans:10:11 @ The holy writings say, Anyone who believes in him will not be let down.

bwe@Romans:10:12 @ The Jews and other people are alike. The same Lord is Lord of all people. He richly blesses all who call out to him.

bwe@Romans:10:13 @ The holy writings say, Everyone who calls out to the Lord will be saved.

bwe@Romans:10:15 @ And how can people tell about him if no one sends them? The holy writings say, How good are the feet of those who bring the good news of peace and happiness.

bwe@Romans:10:16 @ But they have not all obeyed the good news. It is as Isaiah said it would be, Lord, who has believed what we have told them?

bwe@Romans:10:19 @ But I ask, did not the Jews know? First the book of Moses says, I will make you jealous through people who are not a nation like the Jews. I will make you angry through people who do not even know or understand these things.

bwe@Romans:10:20 @ But the book of Isaiah says even stronger words. The people who did not look for me have found me. I have shown myself to those who did not ask for me.

bwe@Romans:10:21 @ But he says about the Jews, All day I held out my hands to a people who did not obey me, who said wrong things against me.

bwe@Romans:11:2 @ God has not left his people whom he knew from the first. Do you not know what the holy writings say about the prophet Elijah? He talked to God against the people of Israel.

bwe@Romans:11:4 @ But what did God answer him? He said, I have seven thousand men who have not kneeled down to the idol god Baal.

bwe@Romans:11:11 @ So I ask, Have their feet been caught so that they have really fallen down? No. But because they began to fall, the people who are not Jews were told how to be saved. That would make the Jews jealous.

bwe@Romans:11:12 @ The people who are not Jews have been richly blessed because the Jews failed. So it will be even better for them when the Jews no longer fail God.

bwe@Romans:11:13 @ Now I say this to you who are not Jews. I am an apostle to those who are not Jews, so I think highly of the work I have been sent to do.

bwe@Romans:11:22 @ See how kind God is. And see how hard he is. He is hard on those who have fallen. But God is kind to you if you go on following in his ways. If you do not, you also will be broken off.

bwe@Romans:11:34 @ The holy writings say, Who has known what the Lord thinks? Who has ever told him what to do?

bwe@Romans:11:35 @ Who has given a gift to God first, so that God would give him something also?

bwe@Romans:12:13 @ Give to Gods people who need it. Be glad to take care of strangers in your house.

bwe@Romans:12:14 @ Bless those who do wrong things to you. Bless them. Do not curse them.

bwe@Romans:12:15 @ Be happy with people who are happy. Cry with people who cry.

bwe@Romans:12:19 @ My dear brothers, do not punish people who do wrong to you. But let Gods anger punish them. In the holy writings the Lord says, I myself will punish people. If they have done wrong things, I will do wrong things to them also.

bwe@Romans:13:2 @ So anyone who fights against the ruler, fights against what God put there. And those who fight will be punished.

bwe@Romans:13:4 @ Such a person is Gods servant and will do what is good for you. But if you do what is wrong, you should fear him. He has great power and he will use it. He is Gods servant and will punish those who do wrong.

bwe@Romans:13:7 @ Pay them all that they should have. Pay taxes to the person who should have the taxes. Pay money to the person who should have the money. Respect the people who should be respected. Honour a person who should be honoured.

bwe@Romans:13:8 @ Do not have any debts, but love each other. Anyone who loves his neighbour has done all that the law says we should do.

bwe@Romans:13:10 @ Anyone who loves his neighbour will do no wrong to him. So love does all that the law says to do.

bwe@Romans:13:13 @ Let us live in the right way like people who are in the light. We must not take part in noisy feasting with dancing, or get drunk. We must not do any kind of wrong thing with sex. We must not quarrel or be jealous.

bwe@Romans:14:2 @ One person believes he may eat anything. Another person, who does not believe that, eats only things that grow in the garden.

bwe@Romans:14:3 @ The one who eats anything must not despise the one who does not eat everything. And the one who does not eat must not judge the person who does. God has accepted him as he is.

bwe@Romans:14:6 @ One man honours the day to honour the Lord; another man does not honour the day to honour the Lord. The person who eats everything, eats it because he honours the Lord. And he thanks God. And the person who will not eat every kind of food also does so to honour the Lord. And he still gives thanks to God.

bwe@Romans:14:14 @ As a Christian, I know and believe that nothing in itself is not right to eat. But it is not right for anyone to eat who thinks it is not right to eat.

bwe@Romans:14:18 @ A person who does the work of Christ in this way pleases God. And people like him.

bwe@Romans:14:22 @ Keep to yourself and God what you believe about these things. God blesses a man who does not feel he has done wrong when he did what he thought was right.

bwe@Romans:14:23 @ But a man who is not sure that he should eat something, does wrong if he eats it. That is because he does not believe the thing he is doing is right to do. And it is wrong to do what you do not believe is right.

bwe@Romans:15:1 @ We who are strong must help those who are not strong. We must not do what pleases us.

bwe@Romans:15:9 @ He did this so that people who are not Jews would praise God because he is kind. The holy writings say, So I will praise you among the people who are not Jews. I will sing songs to your name.

bwe@Romans:15:10 @ The holy writings also say, People who are not Jews, be glad with those who are Gods people.

bwe@Romans:15:11 @ And they also say, People who are not Jews, praise the Lord. All peoples should praise him.

bwe@Romans:15:12 @ Also, Isaiah says, Someone from Jesses family will come. He will come to rule the people who are not Jews. People who are not Jews will have hope in him.

bwe@Romans:15:16 @ I am a servant of Christ Jesus to the people who are not Jews. I am like a priest to them, to tell them Gods good news. Then I offer the people to God. That pleases God. They have been accepted by him and made holy by the Holy Spirit.

bwe@Romans:15:18 @ I will speak only of what Christ has done through me. People who are not Jews have obeyed the good news. They have obeyed because of what I told them and because of what I did.

bwe@Romans:15:21 @ The holy writings say, They were not told about him, but they will see him. And the people who have not heard of him will understand.

bwe@Romans:15:26 @ The people of Macedonia and Achaia wanted to send a gift to help Gods people in Jerusalem who are poor.

bwe@Romans:15:27 @ They wanted to do it, and they should do it for them. The Jews gave the people who were not Jews the good things their spirits need. So the people who were not Jews should give the Jews the good things their bodies need.

bwe@Romans:15:31 @ Ask him to save me from the people in Judea who do not believe. Ask him that the gift I take to Jerusalem may please Gods people there.

bwe@Romans:16:3 @ I send greetings to Priscilla and Aquila, who worked with me for Christ Jesus.

bwe@Romans:16:4 @ They almost died to save me. I am not the only one who thanks them. All the churches who are not Jews thank them also.

bwe@Romans:16:13 @ Give my greetings to Rufus. The Lord chose him. Give my greetings also to his mother who is like a mother to me.

bwe@Romans:16:14 @ Give my greetings to Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brothers who are with them.

bwe@Romans:16:15 @ Give my greetings to Philologus, Julia, Nereus, and his sister, and Olympas, and all Gods people who are with them.

bwe@Romans:16:17 @ Brothers, I ask you to do this. Watch the people who make quarrels. They make people do wrong because they teach things you have not been taught. Have nothing to do with those people.

bwe@Romans:16:18 @ Those people do not work for our Lord Jesus Christ. They work only for themselves. With their words of praise they fool people who do not know what is wrong.

bwe@Romans:16:23 @ Gaius sends you greetings. I am staying in his house. The whole church that meets in his house sends you greetings too. Erastus sends greetings to you. He takes care of the money for the city. Our brother Quartus sends you greetings.

bwe@Romans:16:26 @ The books of the prophets have told this message. The God who lives for ever told the prophets to write this message so that all the people who are not Jews will believe and obey.

bwe@Romans:16:27 @ God is the only one who is wise. Praise him for ever because of Jesus Christ. Yes, it is so!

bwe@1Corinthians:1:2 @ Our Christian brother Sosthenes and I send greetings to the people who are the church of God in the city of Corinth. You are people whom Christ Jesus has made holy. You, too, are chosen to be Gods people. And we send greetings to all the people everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is their Lord, just as he is our Lord.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:9 @ God never fails anyone. It is he who called you to belong to his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:18 @ When people who are turning away from God hear about the cross, they say, That is foolish! But for us who are being saved, the cross is the power God uses to save us.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:20 @ Where are your wise people, the men who know books, the men who like to talk about the things of this world? God has shown that the clever things of this world are nothing.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:21 @ God is wise. But the people of the world were not wise enough to know God. So he chose to save people who believe the good news that we tell them, even though the good news may seem to be foolish.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:22 @ The Jews say, We must see a sign. Those who are not Jews say, We want something we can understand.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:23 @ But we tell people about Christ who died on a cross. The leaders of the Jews do not like this, and those who are not Jews laugh at it.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:6 @ However, our words are wise words to those who really believe. But they are not the kind of wise words that the people of this world speak. They are not the kind of wise words that the rulers of this world speak. Those rulers will die.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:8 @ None of the rulers of this world knew about these things. If they had, they would not have killed on a cross the Lord who was full of Gods glory.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:9 @ The holy writings say, No eye has seen the things God has made ready for those who love him. No ear has heard about them. No persons heart has ever thought of them.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:11 @ The only one who really knows what a person is thinking is the spirit of the person himself. So also, no one knows what God is thinking, only the Spirit of God.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:14 @ The person who does not have the Spirit does not receive the blessings of the Spirit of God. He thinks they are foolish. He cannot understand them because only people who have the Spirit of God can test them.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:15 @ He who has the Spirit of God tests all things. But others cannot test him.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:16 @ The holy writings say: Who knows the mind of the Lord so that he may teach him? As for us, we really do have the mind of Christ.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:1 @ My brothers, I could not talk to you at first as to people who have the Spirit of God. But I talked to you as people who have the spirit of this world. I talked to you as people who are very new-born, baby Christians.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:5 @ After all, who is Apollos? And who is Paul? We both work for God. You believed because of the work we did. The Lord gave each of us our work to do.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:7 @ So then the man who plants is nothing and the man who waters is nothing. God alone makes the seed grow.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:8 @ The man who plants and the man who waters are equal. Each one will be paid for his own work.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:17 @ God will punish anyone who spoils his house. His house is holy, and you are the house.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:1 @ People should look at us as men who are servants of Christ. We take care of the secret things of God.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:2 @ A man who takes care of things must be a person his master can trust.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:7 @ If you are better, who made you that way? Everything you have was given to you. So then, why are you proud of it? Was it not given to you?

bwe@1Corinthians:4:9 @ It seems to me that God has put us apostles at the end of the line. We are like men who are to be put to death. The whole world, angels and men, look at us.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:1 @ I have heard a very bad report about you. I hear there are wrong sexual ways among you. Even the people who are not Jews do not allow wrong sex such as this among them. A man is living with his fathers wife!

bwe@1Corinthians:5:2 @ Can it be that you are still proud? This should make you very sad. The man who has done this should be put out of the church meeting.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:3 @ My body is not with you, but my spirit is. Just as if I were right there, I have decided what to do about the man who did such a thing as this.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:8 @ I wrote a letter to you. I told you not to be friends with people who use sex the wrong way <FI>with a person they are not married to<Fi>.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I did not mean the people of the world <FI>people who are not Christians<Fi> -some of them use sex the wrong way; or always want more things; or steal; or worship idols. To keep away from them altogether would mean you would have to go out of the world.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:10 @ But I wrote to you not to be friends with anyone who says he is a Christian and uses wrong sex, or always wants more, or has idols, or curses, or drinks too much strong drink, or steals. I told you not even to sit down to eat with such a person.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:11 @ Why should I judge the people who are outside the church? You are to judge the church people.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:12 @ God judges those who are outside. The holy writings say, Send the bad person away from among you.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:1 @ When one of you has some complaint against a Christian brother, why does he take him to be judged by those who are not Christians? Why does he not take him to Gods people?

bwe@1Corinthians:6:4 @ So if you have complaints about things in this life, why do you take them to those who are not church people?

bwe@1Corinthians:6:6 @ But now one Christian brother takes another Christian brother to be judged by people who are not Christians.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that bad people will have no part in the kingdom where God rules? Do not be fooled. There are some people who will not have part in that place. They are those who commit adultery of any kind, those who have idols, or steal, or are always wanting more, or talk wrong things about people, or drink plenty of strong drink, or take things by force, or curse.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Do you not know that the person who joins himself to a bad woman becomes one person with her? The holy writings say, The two people shall be like one body.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But the one who joins himself with the Lord becomes one spirit with him.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:18 @ Run away from every kind of wrong sex! Every other wrong thing which a person does is done outside of his body. But the person who uses sex the wrong way does a wrong thing to his own body.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:19 @ Do you not know that your body is the house of the Holy Spirit who lives in you? God gave the Holy Spirit to you. Remember, you do not belong to yourself.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:8 @ Here is what I say to those who are not married and to those whose husbands are dead. It is good for them to stay the way I am.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:10 @ And here is what I say to those who are married. (And yet it is not what I say. It is what the Lord has said.) The wife may not leave her husband.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:12 @ Here is what I say to other people. (This is my word, not the Lords.) Perhaps a Christian brother has a wife who is not a Christian. If she wants to stay with him, then he should not send her away.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:13 @ Perhaps a woman has a husband who is not a Christian. If he wants to stay with her, then the woman should not leave him.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:14 @ The husband who is not a Christian is made holy by the wife. And the wife who is not a Christian is made holy by the husband. If this were not so, then your children would not be holy. But they are holy.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:15 @ If the one who is not a Christian really wants to leave, let him go. The Christian husband or wife is free then. God has called us to live in peace.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:25 @ Here is what I say about those who are not married. (I have no law from the Lord about this. But here is what I think. You can trust me because the Lord has helped me.)

bwe@1Corinthians:7:28 @ But, if you marry, it is not wrong. And if a woman marries, it is not wrong. People who marry will have trouble in this life. And I want to keep you out of it.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:29 @ Here, my brothers, is what I mean. The time is short. In the time that is left, men who have wives should live as though they did not.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:30 @ People who cry should live as though they were not sad. People who laugh should live as though they were not glad. People who buy things should live as though they did not own them.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:31 @ And people who are busy with things in this world should not be too busy. The world as we see it is passing away.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:32 @ I want your minds to be free. The man who is not married thinks about the things of the Lord. He tries to please the Lord.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:33 @ But the man who is married thinks about the things of this world. He tries to please his wife.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:34 @ In the same way, there is a difference between the woman who is married and the one who is not. The woman who is not married thinks about the things of the Lord. She wants her body and her spirit to be holy. But the married woman thinks about the things of this life. She tries to please her husband.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:37 @ But the man who has made up his mind not to marry his woman will do well. That is, if he does not have to marry her, and is able to control himself, and if he is sure about it in his own mind.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:38 @ So the man who marries his woman will do what is good. But the man who does not marry her will do better.

bwe@1Corinthians:8:6 @ Yet for us there is only one God. He is the Father. All things come from him. He is the one for whom we live. And there is only one Lord. He is Jesus Christ. He made all things. He is the one who gives us life.

bwe@1Corinthians:8:11 @ You know the truth, and yet your knowledge will make your weak brother do wrong. You have hurt the faith of a brother, for whom Christ died.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:3 @ Here is what I say to the people who say wrong things about me.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:7 @ What soldier pays for his own food when he goes to war? Who plants a garden and does not eat what grows in it? Who takes care of animals and does not get any of the milk?

bwe@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Does he not say this altogether for our sakes? Yes, he said it for our sakes. There are people who plough the ground and beat the grain. They do this work because they believe they will have a part of the food for themselves.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:13 @ You know there are men who do the work in the temple. They get their food from the temple. Those who help to make sacrifices in the temple get a part of the sacrifice.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:14 @ It is the same with those who work telling the good news. The Lord said they should get their living from that work.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:20 @ When I was with the Jews, I lived like the Jews, so that I might win the Jews to Christ. I was not under the law. But I lived as if I was under the law of the Jews. I did this so that I might win to Christ those who are under the law.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:21 @ When I was with those who do not have the law of the Jews, I lived as if I did not have the law of the Jews. I did this so that I might win them also. Of course, I myself have laws. I follow the laws of Christ.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:25 @ Everyone who wants to show his strength must control himself in every way. They do it for a prize that will spoil. But what we do, we do for a reward that will never, never spoil.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:11 @ These things happened to them to teach other people. They were written in the holy writings to teach us who are living in the last days of the world.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:18 @ See what the Jews do. Those who eat the sacrifices all eat things that are sacrificed.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If one who is not a believer asks you to come and eat, if you want to go, then eat the food he gives you. Do not ask any questions about it because you fear it might be wrong to eat it.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if anyone says to you, This food has been given to an idol, then do not eat it. Do not eat it because of the one who told you and because it might seem wrong. I mean it might seem wrong, not to you, but to him.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:32 @ Do nothing that will make Jews, or Greeks, or those who belong to the church of God, turn away from God.

bwe@1Corinthians:11:4 @ Any man who talks to God or speaks words from God with his head covered brings shame on his head.

bwe@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But any woman who talks to God or speaks words from God with her head not covered brings shame on her head. She is just the same as a woman who has cut off all her hair.

bwe@1Corinthians:11:19 @ You also have groups of people who do not think the same way. Because of them you will soon learn which people please God the most.

bwe@1Corinthians:11:29 @ The person who eats and drinks in a wrong way will be punished. He does not take it as the Lords body.

bwe@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore, I want you to understand this. No person who has the Spirit of God ever curses Jesus. And no one can say, Jesus is Lord, if he is not controlled by the Holy Spirit.

bwe@1Corinthians:12:26 @ God has given each person their right place in the church. First, there are the apostles. Second, there are prophets who speak words from God. Third, there are those who teach. Then there are those who do big works. Then there are those who have the gifts to heal people, those who help in the work of the church people, those who lead and guide others, and those who speak Gods words in different kinds of tongues or languages.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:2 @ The person who talks in tongues of a different language does not talk to people, but to God. People do not understand what he says. But he is saying secret things by the Spirit.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But the person who is a prophet speaks words from God to people plainly. He helps them to believe and to be strong, and he comforts them.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:4 @ The person who talks in a different tongue helps himself. But the one who tells forth Gods word helps all the people in the church.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I wish that you could all talk in different tongues. But I want even more that you should speak words from God for all to hear and understand. The person who speaks words from God is greater than the person who talks in tongues-unless he is able to tell the meaning of his words, so that he helps all the people in the church.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:13 @ So then, the person who talks in a tongue of a different language, should ask God to help tell the meaning of the tongue.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:21 @ The holy writings say, I will talk to these people by strangers and by people who talk in strange tongues. And yet, they will not listen to me. This is what the Lord says.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:22 @ So then, tongues are a sign to people who do not believe God. They are not a sign to those who believe him. But speaking words from God like a prophet is a sign to those who believe. It is not a sign to those who do not believe.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Sometimes all the people of the church may be gathered together. If everyone talks in tongues, and if some people who do not know or believe come in, they will say that you are crazy.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:32 @ Those who speak words from God are able to keep their own spirits quiet.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:36 @ Do you think that you were the first ones to tell the word of God? Or do you think that you are the only people who have it?

bwe@1Corinthians:15:8 @ Last of all, I saw him too. I was like one who was born at the wrong time.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:11 @ So it does not matter who gave the message, they or I. This is the message we gave, and this is the message you believed.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:18 @ If that were true, then the people who believed in Christ who have now died, are lost.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But Christ really has been raised from death. He was the first one to rise of all who have died.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:21 @ It was a man who first brought death. So it was also a man who was first raised from death.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:22 @ All people who are of Adam die. And so also, all people who belong to Christ will live.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But each one has his turn. Christ rose first. Then those who belong to Christ will rise when he comes again.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:24 @ After that the end will come. Christ will hand over the ruling power to God the Father. Christ will stop all other rulers, and everyone who has any rights and power.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:27 @ The holy writings say, God has put all things under Christ. But it does not mean that God is under Christ. God is the one who put all things under him.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:45 @ The holy writings say, The first man, Adam, was of this world! The last Adam <FI>Christ<Fi> is a Spirit who gives life.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:48 @ Those who are made of earth are like the man made of dust. Those who are for heaven are like the man from heaven.

bwe@1Corinthians:16:16 @ So, my brothers, I ask you to obey men like that. And join happily with all others who are helpers and workers.

bwe@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The people in the churches of Asia send greetings to you. Aquila and Priscilla and the Christians who meet in their house send you many Christian greetings.

bwe@1Corinthians:16:22 @ Anyone who does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, should be cut off from God. Come soon, Lord!

bwe@2Corinthians:1:2 @ May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you with their loving kindness and peace. Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! He is a very, very kind Father to us. He is a God who always comforts and helps people.

bwe@2Corinthians:1:19 @ It is God who makes us stand strong with you in Christ. God has chosen us and put his mark on us.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I make you sad, who is going to make me glad? No one, but the one I made sad.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:3 @ That is why I wrote the letter. I did not want to come and be made sad by those who should make me glad. I am sure that what makes me glad makes you all glad too.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:4 @ When I wrote to you, I was in great trouble and my heart was very heavy. I cried with many tears. I did not want you to be sad, but I just wanted to let you know that I love you very much who made me sad. It was not only me that he made sad. It was every one of you, in a way. I say in a way because I do not want to be too strong in what I say.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:9 @ Anyone whom you forgive, I also forgive. And if I have had anything to forgive, I have already forgiven it for your sakes, just as if we were standing before Christ.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:12 @ We are like a sweet smell to God. It is the smell of Christ we have. We have this sweet smell among the people who are saved and among those who are lost.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:13 @ To some it smells like death and brings death to those who are lost. To others it smells like life and it brings life to those who are saved. Who is good enough for such things?

bwe@2Corinthians:3:14 @ But their minds were made dull. Even today, when the old law of God is read, it is as if a cloth still covers it. It is Christ who takes the cloth away.

bwe@2Corinthians:3:18 @ All of us have no cloth over our faces. People can see that we have some of the bright and wonderful light that the Lord has. And we are becoming brighter and brighter, more and more like him. It is the Lord, the Spirit, who does this.

bwe@2Corinthians:4:13 @ We believe the same way as the one who wrote, I believed, and so I talked. We also believe, and so we talk to you.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:5 @ God is the one who has made us ready for this change. He has already given us the Spirit. This is the first part of what we are to receive, and it proves that we will get more.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:11 @ No, we are not praising ourselves again. But we are telling you this so that you may really be proud of us. Then you will be ready to answer people who are proud of themselves. They are proud of the things which can be seen.But in their hearts they have nothing to be proud of.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:14 @ He died for all, so that those who live would not live to please themselves. But they should live to please him who gave his life for them and rose again from death.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:17 @ But it is God who has done all this. He sent Christ to make peace with us and to bring us back to himself. Now he has given us the work of bringing other people back to God.

bwe@2Corinthians:6:13 @ I say this as to my own children. You should love us with all your hearts. with those who do not believe. You and they are not equal. How can people who do right, work with those who do not obey God? How can light and darkness be in the same place?

bwe@2Corinthians:6:14 @ How can Christ agree with Belial, the devil? How can a person who believes work with a person who does not believe?

bwe@2Corinthians:6:17 @ I will be your father. And you shall be my sons and daughters. The Lord who is ruler of all says that.

bwe@2Corinthians:7:5 @ But God comforts those who are in trouble, and when Titus came, we were comforted.

bwe@2Corinthians:7:11 @ So, even though I did write to you, it was not for the sake of the man who did wrong. And it was not for the sake of the man who had the wrong done to him. But I wrote so that you would see for yourselves, in the sight of God, how much we care for you.

bwe@2Corinthians:8:15 @ The holy writings say, The person who had plenty did not have too much. And the person who did not have much, had enough. care for you into the heart of Titus that I have.

bwe@2Corinthians:9:6 @ Here is something to remember. The man who plants a little bit will get only a little from it. The man who plants much will get much from it.

bwe@2Corinthians:9:7 @ Everyone should give what he wants in his heart to give. He should be glad to give it, and should not give it because he was forced to give. God loves a person who gives gladly.

bwe@2Corinthians:9:10 @ God is the one who gives seed to plant and bread to eat. He will give you enough to give away and will make it become more and more. Of the good things you do he will give you a big harvest.

bwe@2Corinthians:10:6 @ Only when you all obey, then we are ready to punish anyone who will not obey.

bwe@2Corinthians:10:12 @ We do not want to be like those people who praise themselves. They measure themselves by their own ideas, and look at themselves to see how good they are. When they do that, they are foolish!

bwe@2Corinthians:10:17 @ The holy writings say that the person who is proud should be proud only of the Lord.

bwe@2Corinthians:10:18 @ A man who praises himself is not a man who is good. The man who is really good is the man whom the Lord praises.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:2 @ I love you as God loves you. I see you as a woman who has not been married and I am giving you to be the wife of a husband. That husband is Christ.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:15 @ So it is not strange if his workers also try to make themselves look like Gods workers who do right. They will come to an end like the work they do! think that I am foolish. But if you do, then please listen to me as if I were foolish. I also want to do a little talking about myself.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:22 @ Are they workers for Christ? (I talk like one who is not in his right mind.) I am a better worker. I have worked much harder. I have been in prison more often. I have been beaten many, many times. Often I have almost died.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:25 @ I have travelled much. I have crossed bad rivers. I have gone where men might steal my things. The Jews and those who are not Jews have troubled me. I have been in hard places in the city. I have had hard times in the desert. I have had hard times on the water. I have had hard times among those who should have been my brothers and were not.

bwe@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I have told you before, when I visited you the second time. And I tell you again now, while I am not there. When I come again, I will punish those who did wrong before and the others who have done wrong since.

bwe@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Now, my brothers, in closing I say, Goodbye. Be what you should be. Listen to what I say. Be good to each other. Agree with one another. Live in peace with one another. And the God who gives love and peace will be with you.

bwe@Galatians:1:1 @ I am Paul the apostle, a messenger from God. Men did not call me to be an apostle. Men did not make me an apostle. Jesus Christ and God the Father made me an apostle. It was the same God the Father who raised Jesus from death.

bwe@Galatians:1:2 @ All the Christian brothers who are with me and I, send greetings. To the churches in the province of Galatia:

bwe@Galatians:1:6 @ I am very much surprised. It is so soon, and you are leaving God who called you by the love of Christ. Instead you are listening to another good news.

bwe@Galatians:1:9 @ We have said it before, and I say it again now. A curse be on any one who tells you a kind of good news which is not the good news we have already told you.

bwe@Galatians:1:12 @ No man told it to me. No man taught it to me. But it was Jesus Christ who showed it to me.

bwe@Galatians:1:16 @ God wanted to show his Son to me so that I might tell people who are not Jews about him. I did not go and ask any other person about the good news.

bwe@Galatians:1:17 @ I did not go to Jerusalem to the men who were apostles before I was. But I went away into the country of Arabia. Then afterwards, I came back to the city of Damascus.

bwe@Galatians:1:23 @ They only heard people say, This is the man who used to trouble us and he is now telling others to believe what he once tried to stop.

bwe@Galatians:2:2 @ God showed me that I should go. And I told them about the good news which I tell to people who are not Jews. I told those who seemed to be church leaders when I was alone with them. I did not want my work to come to nothing-the work I had done or the work I was doing.

bwe@Galatians:2:4 @ But some men got in who were not true brothers. They came in secretly to spy on us to find out things about us. They did not want us to be free the way Christ Jesus has made us free. But they wanted to make us obey the old laws again <FI>which were given to Moses by God<Fi>.

bwe@Galatians:2:6 @ Those men who seemed to be leaders did not teach me anything new. It does not matter to me who they were. God does not love some people more than others.

bwe@Galatians:2:7 @ No, the leaders saw that God called me to take the good news to those who are not circumcised <FI>not Jews<Fi>, just as he called Peter to take the good news to those who are circumcised <FI>Jews<Fi>.

bwe@Galatians:2:8 @ The same God who made Peter an apostle to the Jews made me an apostle to those who are not Jews.

bwe@Galatians:2:9 @ The leaders saw that God had blessed me. James, Peter, and John seemed to be leaders in the church. They saw that God had blessed me. So they accepted Barnabas and me as fellow workers. They agreed that we should go to the people who were not Jews and they themselves would go to the Jews.

bwe@Galatians:2:12 @ Here is what happened. Peter ate with those who were not Jews. Then some men came whom James had sent. When they came he stopped eating with those who were not Jews. He was afraid of what the Jews might think.

bwe@Galatians:2:13 @ All the other Jewish Christians did the same as Peter did. They acted as if it was not right to eat with those who were not Jews. Even Barnabas did the same.

bwe@Galatians:2:14 @ But I saw they were not doing right. They were not obeying the true teaching of the good news. So I said to Peter in front of them all, You are a Jew. But you live the way people do who are not Jews. How then can you force those who are not Jews to live the way the Jews do?

bwe@Galatians:2:15 @ We ourselves were born Jews. We are not of those who still follow wrong ways, those who are not Jews.

bwe@Galatians:2:17 @ We came to Christ to be put right with God. That showed us how much we had been bad men. Was it Christ who made us bad men? No, surely not!

bwe@Galatians:3:1 @ O you Galatians, have you no sense at all? Who has fooled you? You knew, just as if you had seen him with your own eyes, that Jesus Christ was killed on a cross.

bwe@Galatians:3:7 @ You see then, the people who believe God are children of Abraham.

bwe@Galatians:3:8 @ The holy writings say that he will put people right with himself if they believe him, even those who are not Jews. It was written down before God did it. The holy writings told the good news to Abraham ahead of time. It said, God will make you a blessing to all nations and people.

bwe@Galatians:3:9 @ Abraham believed God and was blessed. And so those who believe God are blessed too, along with him.

bwe@Galatians:3:10 @ A curse is on all people who are trying to become good by obeying the law. The holy writings say, Everyone is cursed who does not always obey everything that is written in the book of the law and do it.

bwe@Galatians:3:11 @ Now, you can see this. No man is called a good man by God because he obeys the law. The holy writings say, Those who are right with God shall live by faith.

bwe@Galatians:3:12 @ The law does not ask people to believe. It says, He who obeys the laws will live because of them.

bwe@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ has saved us from the curse which the law put on us. He took the curse on himself. It should have been on us. The holy writings say, A curse be on everyone who hangs on a tree!

bwe@Galatians:3:14 @ Christ Jesus did this so that those who are not Jews will have the blessing which Abraham had. He did this so that when we believe, we will receive the Spirit who was promised to us.

bwe@Galatians:3:19 @ Why then was the law made? God gave it after he made the promise, because so many people were doing what was wrong. The law was to be in power only until the Son came, the one to whom the promise was made. The law was handed down by Gods angels with the help of a middle man.

bwe@Galatians:3:20 @ To need the help of a middle man there must be more than one person making the agreement. But God is the only one who made the promise.

bwe@Galatians:3:22 @ But the holy writings say it is like this. The whole world is in prison, kept there by the wrong things they have done. This was done so that people who believe in Jesus Christ would have the blessing. This blessing was promised to those who believe.

bwe@Galatians:3:27 @ All of you who have been baptised into Christ have taken Christ as your own.

bwe@Galatians:3:28 @ There is no longer any difference between a Jew and one who is not a Jew; between a slave and a free man; between a man and a woman. When you are in the body of Christ Jesus, you are all alike.

bwe@Galatians:4:2 @ He still has people who take care of him and he must obey them until the time set by his father.

bwe@Galatians:4:5 @ God sent him to set the people free who were under the law. God sent him so that we would receive our rights as sons of God.

bwe@Galatians:4:27 @ The holy writings say, The woman who has not had a child, be happy! You who do not feel the pain of bearing a child, open your mouth and shout. The woman who is left alone has more children than the woman who has a husband!

bwe@Galatians:4:29 @ Abrahams child who was born as any child is born, troubled the other child who was born by the Spirit. It is that way today.

bwe@Galatians:5:3 @ Again I say to every man who is circumcised, he must obey all the law.

bwe@Galatians:5:7 @ You were doing well. Who stopped you from doing what is right?

bwe@Galatians:5:8 @ God calls you but he is not the one who made you change your minds.

bwe@Galatians:5:10 @ The Lord makes me sure that you will not think any other way. But the teacher who is troubling your minds will be punished. It does not matter who he is.

bwe@Galatians:5:14 @ This one law is the whole law: Love your neighbour as you love yourself.

bwe@Galatians:5:19 @ It is easy to see the wrong things people want to do. Both married people and those who are not married commit adultery. People make themselves unclean because of their wrong use of sex. They do things they should be ashamed of doing.

bwe@Galatians:5:21 @ They want what other people have. They even kill. They drink too much strong drink. They like to take part in loud drinking and dancing. They do other things like these. I have told you before and I tell you again. Those who do these things will not be in the kingdom of God.

bwe@Galatians:5:23 @ Those who belong to Christ Jesus have stopped doing the wrong things they want to do. They have stopped them just as if they were killed on a cross. And they have even stopped wanting to do them.

bwe@Galatians:6:1 @ My brothers, perhaps a man has done something wrong. If so, you who are strong in the Spirit must help him to do the right thing again. Help him in a gentle way. Take care yourself, that you are not tried and will want to do wrong.

bwe@Galatians:6:3 @ A man who thinks that he is an important person when he is not, that man fools himself.

bwe@Galatians:6:6 @ People are taught the word of God. They should give some of all the good things they have to those who teach them.

bwe@Galatians:6:8 @ The man who plants the wrong things he wants to do will get death, because of those wrong things. But the person who plants what the Spirit wants him to do will live for ever, because of the Spirit.

bwe@Galatians:6:10 @ So then, when we can, we should do good to all people. But most of all, we should do it to those who are in Gods family.

bwe@Galatians:6:13 @ Even those who are circumcised do not obey the law. But they want you to be circumcised. Then they can be proud that they made you do it.

bwe@Galatians:6:16 @ May all who live by this rule have peace. And may God bless them. They are the true people of Israel and they belong to God.

bwe@Ephesians:1:1 @ I am Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ. It was Gods wish for me to be his messenger. I send greetings to Gods people in the city of Ephesus, to those who believe in Christ Jesus.

bwe@Ephesians:1:6 @ Praise him! His kindness is great and wonderful. We have been accepted by God through Jesus Christ, whom he loves so much.

bwe@Ephesians:1:13 @ You also believed in Christ when you heard the true message. That message is the good news by which you were saved. You received the Holy Spirit whom God had promised. You were marked as belonging to him.

bwe@Ephesians:1:16 @ He is the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father who is very great and wonderful. I ask him to give you a mind that is wise and will understand about him.

bwe@Ephesians:1:18 @ I ask him that you may know the wonderful power he has to do things for us who believe in Christ. His power is very strong.

bwe@Ephesians:1:22 @ The church <FI>all the people who believe in Jesus Christ<Fi> is his body. The church people have everything that Christ has. He is the One who is in everything everywhere.

bwe@Ephesians:2:2 @ At one time you did those wrong things, just like the people around you. You obeyed the ruler who has the power over things in the air. That ruler is the spirit who is working now in the people who do not obey God.

bwe@Ephesians:2:3 @ At one time we too all lived like them. We lived to please ourselves. We did what our bodies and our minds wanted us to do. We were people with whom God was angry, just like other people.

bwe@Ephesians:2:7 @ He did this to show us in all times to come how much he can bless people and how kind he is. It was Jesus Christ who brought this kindness to us.

bwe@Ephesians:2:17 @ He came and said that there is now peace. There is peace for you who were far away from God and for those who were near.

bwe@Ephesians:2:21 @ He is the one who holds the whole house together, and it becomes a holy house belonging to the Lord.

bwe@Ephesians:3:1 @ That is why I, Paul, am a prisoner who belongs to Jesus Christ. It is for the sake of you people who are not Jews.

bwe@Ephesians:3:6 @ This is Gods plan. Those who are not Jews will also share in the blessings of God. They also are a part of the body of Jesus Christ. They also will receive the things God has promised in Jesus Christ through the good news.

bwe@Ephesians:3:8 @ I am less than the least of all Gods people, and yet he blessed me. It is my work to tell those who are not Jews about the wonderful blessings of Christ. There are so many that we cannot know them all.

bwe@Ephesians:3:9 @ God has blessed me so that I might tell all people plainly what his plan is. God, who made all things, did not tell anyone about his plan in all the times in the past.

bwe@Ephesians:3:10 @ Now he wants those who rule and have power in the sky to know how very wise God is. They will know this when they look at the church people.

bwe@Ephesians:4:1 @ I am a prisoner who belongs to the Lord. I beg you, live the way people should live who have been called by God.

bwe@Ephesians:4:10 @ The one who came down is the same one who went up higher than all the heavens. He did this so that he would be everywhere.

bwe@Ephesians:4:15 @ We must say what is true and say it with love. In that way we will grow up in all things to be like Christ, who is the head of this body.

bwe@Ephesians:4:16 @ The whole body is joined and held together by every joint that it has. It is from Christ that the whole body grows as each different part does its work. It grows so that it becomes stronger in love.

bwe@Ephesians:4:17 @ Here then is what the Lord has told me to say. You must not live like the people who do not believe in God. They do not think clearly.

bwe@Ephesians:4:28 @ The person who used to steal must not steal now. But he must do some good work with his own hands. Then he will have something to give to the poor people.

bwe@Ephesians:4:29 @ Do not let any bad words come out of your mouth. But say good things that will help people. Then those who hear you will also be blessed by what you say.

bwe@Ephesians:5:5 @ You know this. There are people who use sex wrongly, and who are always wanting what others have. No such a person has any place in the kingdom of Christ and of God. He is worshipping an idol.

bwe@Ephesians:5:6 @ Do not let anyone fool you by their empty talk. It is because people do these wrong things that God is very angry. He is angry with the people who do not obey him.

bwe@Ephesians:5:8 @ You were in the dark before, but now the Lord has given you light. Live like people who have the light.

bwe@Ephesians:5:9 @ People who have the light do all that is good and right and true.

bwe@Ephesians:5:14 @ So it is said, Wake up, you who are asleep! Rise from death. And Christ will give you light.

bwe@Ephesians:5:15 @ Take care how you live. Do not live like people who are not wise, but live like people who are wise.

bwe@Ephesians:5:28 @ So husbands should love their wives as they love their own bodies. The man who loves his wife loves himself.

bwe@Ephesians:6:8 @ And you who are bosses, be good to your servants also. Do not talk loud, hard words to them. Remember that both their Lord and yours is in heaven. He does not love one person more than another.

bwe@Ephesians:6:11 @ We are not fighting against people of flesh and blood. But we are fighting against rulers and powers whom we cannot see. We are fighting against those who control the darkness of this world, and against bad spirits who have power in the air.

bwe@Ephesians:6:20 @ Tychicus will tell you all about me and what I am doing. He is a brother whom I love and a very good helper in the Lords work.

bwe@Ephesians:6:23 @ May the kindness of God bless all who love our Lord Jesus Christ.

bwe@Philippians:1:1 @ We, Paul and Timothy, are servants of Christ Jesus. We send greetings to all of Gods people who belong to Christ Jesus and who live in the city of Philippi. We send greetings to the leaders of the church people and those who have been chosen to help them.

bwe@Philippians:1:27 @ So whatever happens, live as people who believe the good news of Christ should live. Then, if I come and see you, or if I am away and hear about you, you will be standing strong together in one spirit. With one mind you will be working hard together for the good news.

bwe@Philippians:1:28 @ Do not fear in any way those who are working against you. It is God who shows them they are lost and you are saved.

bwe@Philippians:3:2 @ Watch out for those teachers who are like dogs. Watch out for those teachers who do wrong things. And watch out for those teachers who want you to have the mark of a Jew cut in your bodies.

bwe@Philippians:3:3 @ We have Gods Spirit and we worship God in the Spirit. So we are the people who have the mark of God. Christ Jesus is our reason for being joyful. We do not trust in having a mark cut in our bodies.

bwe@Philippians:3:15 @ All of us who are grown-up Christians should feel this way. And if you do not think this way, God will show you the right way.

bwe@Philippians:3:17 @ My brothers, do as I do, all of you. Look at the people who live the way we have lived.

bwe@Philippians:4:8 @ I taught you, and you learned things from me. You heard the things I said, and you saw the things I did. Do these same things yourselves. Then God who gives peace will be with you.

bwe@Philippians:4:14 @ You people of Philippi know this too. When I first told the good news after I left the country of Macedonia, you were the only church people who helped me. You sent me money to pay my expenses.

bwe@Philippians:4:20 @ Please give my greetings to every one who belongs to Christ Jesus. The Christian brothers who are with me greet you.

bwe@Colossians:1:8 @ Also, it is he who told us of your love in the Spirit.

bwe@Colossians:1:12 @ Thank the Father who has made us ready to be with the people of God who live in his light.

bwe@Colossians:1:15 @ The Son is like God who cannot be seen. He was his Son before anything was made.

bwe@Colossians:1:18 @ He is also the head of the body which is the church <FI>the people who believe in Jesus Christ<Fi>. He is the beginning, the first one to rise from death, so that he would be the first one in everything.

bwe@Colossians:1:20 @ And God chose him to be the one who would bring all things back to himself. God made peace by the blood which Christ gave on his cross. He would bring back all things on earth and in heaven.

bwe@Colossians:1:23 @ But you must keep on believing and stand strong and true. Let nothing shake the hope which the good news brought you. You heard the same good news as is told to everyone in the whole world. I, Paul, was given the work of telling that same good news.

bwe@Colossians:1:26 @ This message is about the secret plan of God. People who lived in all the past times of the world did not know about this plan. But now it has been told to Gods people.

bwe@Colossians:1:27 @ He wanted them to know that his plan is very great and wonderful for those who are not Jews. And this plan is that Christ is in you! He is your hope for all the wonderful things that are to come.

bwe@Colossians:2:1 @ I want you to know how much I care for you and those in the city of Laodicea, and even all those who have never seen me.

bwe@Colossians:2:12 @ You were buried with Christ when you were baptised. You were also raised with him to a new life when you were baptised. You were raised because you believed in the power of God who raised Christ from death.

bwe@Colossians:2:19 @ He is not joined to the real head which is Christ. It is from him that the whole body receives strength and is held together by its joints and muscles. It is from him that the body grows as God makes it grow.

bwe@Colossians:3:9 @ Do not tell lies to one another. You have stopped being the person you used to be who did wrong things.

bwe@Colossians:3:10 @ And now you have become a new person. That new person is always learning more and more until he becomes like God who made him.

bwe@Colossians:3:11 @ In this new person, there is no difference between a Greek and a Jew. There is no difference between a man who is circumcised with the mark of the Jew and a man who is not circumcised. There is no difference between a person from a friendly country or someone from a country which is not friendly. There is no difference between a slave and a person who is free. Christ is everything and is in all of them.

bwe@Colossians:3:25 @ The person who does wrong will be punished for the wrong he has done. God does not love one person more than another.

bwe@Colossians:4:1 @ You who are a boss, do what is right to your servants. You know that you also have a Master in heaven.

bwe@Colossians:4:5 @ Act the right way to people who are not Christians. Make good use of your time.

bwe@Colossians:4:7 @ Tychicus will tell you all about me. He is a brother whom I love. He is a very good helper and works with me in the Lords work.

bwe@Colossians:4:9 @ I am sending Onesimus with him. He is also a good brother whom I love. He is one of you. They will tell you all about everything here.

bwe@Colossians:4:10 @ Here are the people who send you greetings: Aristarchus, who is in prison with me, and Mark, a cousin of Barnabas. I have already told you to welcome him if he comes to you.

bwe@Colossians:4:11 @ Jesus, whose other name is Justus, also sends greetings. These men are the only Jews who are doing Gods work with me. And they have comforted me much.

bwe@Colossians:4:14 @ Luke, the doctor whom I love, and Demas also greet you.

bwe@Colossians:4:15 @ Give my greetings to the brothers at Laodicea, and also to Nympha and the church people who meet in her house.

bwe@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ They tell us how glad you were to see us. They tell us about how you left your idols and turned to God. You worship the God who is the living and true God.

bwe@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ And you wait for his Son to come again from heaven. God raised his Son Jesus from death. It is Jesus who saves us from Gods great anger which is to come.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But God chose us to tell people the good news. And so we do not speak to please men, but to please God. He is the one who knows what is in our hearts.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ They try to stop us from talking to those people who are not Jews. They do not want them to be saved. So they are always doing wrong things. And now at last, God has become very angry with them. have been away from you for a short time in body, but not in heart. We wanted very much to see you face to face, and we tried hard to come.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ You are ones of whom we are proud. You make us happy.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:5 @ Do not have sex with a person you are not married to. Control your strong feelings. Do not act like the people who do not know God.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ Do not do wrong to your Christian brother by taking his wife for yourself. The Lord will surely punish all those who do wrong in these things. We have already told you that and made it very clear.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ So anyone who does not obey is not just disobeying a man, but he is disobeying God. And it is God who has given us his Holy Spirit.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:10 @ And you do love all the Christian brothers who are in the whole country of Macedonia. But we beg you, brothers, love them more and more.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ Then people who do not belong to the church will respect you. And you will not need help from anyone. here is something I want you to know about those who have died. You should not cry for them like people cry who have no hope.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ We believe that Jesus died and rose again. And because of what Jesus did, God will bring back with him those who have died.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ We tell you what the Lord said. We who are still alive when the Lord comes, will not go ahead of those who have died.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ Then we who are still alive on earth will be caught up together with those who were dead. We will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And then we will be with the Lord forever!

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ You your-selves surely know that the day of the Lord will come just like a person who comes to steal in the night.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:4 @ But you, my brothers, are not in the dark. That day should not surprise you like a person who comes to steal.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ So comfort and strengthen one another, just as you are doing. you to respect those who are working among you. They are your leaders in the Lords work, and they tell you what you should do.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:11 @ My brothers, we beg you, tell this to people who do not do what they should do. Talk to those who fear, and say something that will make them strong. Help those who are weak. Be patient with all people.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:17 @ Do not despise people who speak words from God.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:20 @ May God himself, who gives peace, make you pure and clean. You are set apart and belong only to him. And may your spirit and soul and body all together be kept free from fault until our Lord Jesus Christ comes.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:21 @ )It is God who calls you, and he can be trusted. He will surely do what he has said.

bwe@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ God will do what is right. He will give trouble to those who are troubling you.

bwe@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ And he will give rest to you who are having troubles, and to us also. He will give this rest when our Lord Jesus comes back from heaven. The Lord Jesus will come with his strong angels in flaming fire.

bwe@2Thessalonians:1:8 @ He will punish those who do not know God, and those who do not obey the good news of our Lord Jesus.

bwe@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ This will happen on the day he comes. On that day his people will show how great and wonderful he is. And all those who have believed in him will be surprised at how great he is. That means you also, because you believed what we told you.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Do not let anyone fool you in any way. Before the day of the Lord comes, many people will stop believing God. The Man of Evil will be seen. He is the evil one who will be destroyed for ever.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ And by his bad tricks he will fool people who are lost. They will not love the true message which would have saved them.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ They will all be judged. I mean the people who have not believed in the true message but who wanted to do what is wrong.

bwe@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ Ask God that we may be saved from bad people who do wrong things. Not everyone believes in Christ.

bwe@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now, my brothers, we tell you to do this in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Have nothing to do with any lazy brother who is not living the way we taught you.

bwe@1Timothy:1:1 @ I am Paul. I am an apostle of Christ Jesus. God and Christ Jesus told me to be an apostle. God is our Saviour, and Christ is the one who gives us hope.

bwe@1Timothy:1:9 @ He must understand that the law was not made for the man who lives right. It was made for those who do not want any laws over them, and for those who will not obey. It was made for those who do not respect God, and those who are bad people. It was made for those who do not respect anything that is holy or belongs to God. It was made for those who beat their fathers or mothers, and for those who kill people.

bwe@1Timothy:1:10 @ It was made for those who use sex in the wrong way and for men who have sex with other men. It was made for those who steal people, for those who tell lies, for those who make a promise that is not true, and for any other thing that is not right.

bwe@1Timothy:1:12 @ I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who gave me power to tell the good news. I thank him because he believed he could trust me, and he chose me for this work.

bwe@1Timothy:1:16 @ Jesus Christ wanted to show that he is very, very patient. And so he was kind to me who was the worst. He did this so that others would believe in him and live for ever.

bwe@1Timothy:1:17 @ Give honour and praise for ever and ever to the one who is King for ever. He will never die. He cannot be seen. He is the only God. Yes, he is!

bwe@1Timothy:2:5 @ There is one God. There is also one man who can open the way between God and all people. That man is Christ Jesus.

bwe@1Timothy:2:7 @ I was chosen to tell about this and to be an apostle. I am telling the truth. I am not lying. I was chosen to teach people who are not Jews. I must teach them to believe and to know what is true.

bwe@1Timothy:2:10 @ But women should busy themselves with good works. This is the right thing for women who say they worship God.

bwe@1Timothy:3:7 @ People who are not church people must also speak well of a church leader, so that he will not fall into the devils trap.

bwe@1Timothy:3:8 @ In the same way, the leaders helpers must be men whom people respect. They must not say one thing one time and something different another time. They must not drink too much wine. They must not try to get rich in wrong ways.

bwe@1Timothy:3:11 @ In the same way, their wives must be women whom people respect. They must not tell lies about anyone. They must be able to control themselves. They must live so that people can trust them in all things.

bwe@1Timothy:4:3 @ They will teach people that they should not marry. They will teach them not to eat some kinds of food. God made the food and he wanted people to take it and thank him for it. Those who believe and know what is true do this.

bwe@1Timothy:4:10 @ That is why we work hard and put up with troubles. We trust in the living God who came to save all people. He makes a way for those who believe in him.

bwe@1Timothy:4:12 @ Do not let anyone despise you because you are a young man. Show those who believe how they should live. Show them by the way you talk. Show them by the way you live. Show them by the way you love. Show them how to believe by the way you believe. Show them how to live a clean life by the way you live a clean life.

bwe@1Timothy:4:16 @ Take care of yourself and what you teach. Keep on doing this. If you do, you will save yourself and those who listen to you.

bwe@1Timothy:5:3 @ Help widow women, whose husbands are dead, if they have no one to help them.

bwe@1Timothy:5:5 @ A widow who has no one to help her, and is alone, trusts in God. Day and night she talks to God and asks him for the things she needs.

bwe@1Timothy:5:6 @ But a woman who spends her time in pleasing herself is really dead, even while she still lives.

bwe@1Timothy:5:8 @ A man must care for his own people. At least he must care for his family. If he does not care for them, he shows that he does not believe in God. He is worse than one who has never believed.

bwe@1Timothy:5:9 @ A widow who is over sixty years old, may be chosen to help the church people. But she must have been the wife of one husband.

bwe@1Timothy:5:10 @ People must speak well of the good works she has done. Has she brought up children? Has she been kind to strangers and cared for them in her house? Has she washed the feet of Gods people? Has she helped people who were in trouble? Has she done every kind of good thing to help people?

bwe@1Timothy:5:16 @ Do any Christians have in their families women whose husbands are dead? If they do, they should help them. The church people should not have to care for them. Then the church can help the women who have no one to help them.

bwe@1Timothy:5:17 @ The leaders of the church people who rule well should be given greater honour and reward. At least do this for those who work hard in speaking and teaching.

bwe@1Timothy:5:18 @ The holy writings say, You may not tie the mouth of a cow when it is walking on the grain to beat it out. And also, The man who works should be paid for it.

bwe@1Timothy:5:20 @ Talk to those who live a wrong life and tell them to stop it. Talk to them in front of all the church members. Then the others will be afraid to do it.

bwe@1Timothy:6:2 @ Those who work for Christian masters should not take life easy just because the person they work for is a Christian. They should work all the better because they are loved by them. Teach these things and tell people to do them.

bwe@1Timothy:6:3 @ Is there anyone who teaches something different? Or is there anyone who does not agree with the true words of our Lord Jesus Christ? Or does he not agree with teaching about the things of God?

bwe@1Timothy:6:9 @ People who want to be rich have trouble. They get caught in a trap. They want many foolish things which are wrong for them. Because of this, men are lost and punished for ever.

bwe@1Timothy:6:13 @ Now we stand before God who gives life to all things. We stand before Christ who said what was right when he was in court before Pontius Pilate. I tell you to do this.

bwe@1Timothy:6:18 @ Tell the rich people to do good. Tell them to do many good things. Tell them to give to other people, and to help those who are in need.

bwe@2Timothy:1:10 @ But now he has made it real through the coming of Jesus Christ who saves. He has put death out of the way. He has shown people can have everlasting life by telling them the good news.

bwe@2Timothy:1:11 @ I have been chosen to tell that good news. I have been chosen to go out and teach it to those who are not Jews.

bwe@2Timothy:1:12 @ That is why I have this trouble. But I am not ashamed of it because I know the one whom I have trusted. And I am sure he is able to keep safe what I have trusted to him. He will keep it safe until that great day when he comes again.

bwe@2Timothy:1:14 @ Keep safe that good thing which was trusted to you. The Holy Spirit who lives in us will help you.

bwe@2Timothy:1:15 @ You know that all the men who live in the country of Asia Minor have left me. Phygellus and Hermogenes are among them.

bwe@2Timothy:2:2 @ You and many others heard what I taught. Now you must teach these things to men who can be trusted, men who will be able to teach them to other people also.

bwe@2Timothy:2:4 @ A soldier who is fighting does not live the way other people do. He wants to please the one who chose him.

bwe@2Timothy:2:14 @ Tell people these things again. Tell them before the Lord not to quarrel in their teaching. There is no good in doing that. It upsets the minds of those who listen to them.

bwe@2Timothy:2:19 @ But the truth of God stands strong. It cannot change. These words are sure: The Lord knows the people who belong to him and, Let all those who use the name of the Lord stop their wrong ways.

bwe@2Timothy:2:22 @ Have no part at all in the wrong things that young men like to do. Believe. Have love. Follow what is right. Live at peace. Do these things along with others who have a clean heart and talk to God.

bwe@2Timothy:2:25 @ When he corrects those who are against him, he must do it in a gentle way. It may be that God will turn their hearts to know what is true.

bwe@2Timothy:3:6 @ They are the kind who go quietly into peoples houses. There they get foolish women to believe them. These women know that they have done many wrong things. And they want to do many kinds of wrong things.

bwe@2Timothy:3:8 @ Jannes and Jambres were two men who were very much against Moses. In the same way, these men I am talking about are against what is true. They are men who have wrong thoughts in their minds. They do not believe.

bwe@2Timothy:3:12 @ Yes, all who want to live a good life in Christ Jesus will be troubled by other people.

bwe@2Timothy:3:13 @ Bad men and those who fool other people will grow worse and worse. They will fool other people, and other people will fool them.

bwe@2Timothy:3:14 @ But you, Timothy, must keep on doing the things you have learned. You know they are right. You know who taught them to you.

bwe@2Timothy:3:17 @ In this way a person who belongs to God has all he needs. He is ready for every kind of good work.

bwe@2Timothy:4:1 @ I say this before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge people who are living and people who are dead. I say this to you because he will come back and rule over all.

bwe@2Timothy:4:3 @ The time is coming when people will not listen to good teaching. They will want to listen to the things they like to hear. And they will bring in many teachers who will teach them just what they want to do.

bwe@2Timothy:4:8 @ From now on, my reward is waiting for me, because I have done what is right. The Lord will repay me on the day when he comes back. He judges the right way. I will not be the only one to get a reward from him. But he will repay all those who want very much to see him.

bwe@2Timothy:4:14 @ Alexander, the man who makes things from copper, did many wrong things to me. The Lord will punish him for what he has done.

bwe@2Timothy:4:17 @ But the Lord was with me. He gave me strength to tell the message. All those who are not Jews heard it. And I was saved out of the mouth of the lion.

bwe@2Timothy:4:19 @ Give my greetings to Priscilla and Aquila, and to the people who belong to the house of Onesiphorus.

bwe@Titus:1:3 @ And at the right time he sent men to tell people his word. God, who saves us, trusted me and told me to tell that word.

bwe@Titus:1:8 @ He must hold strongly to the true message which he has been taught. Then he will be able to teach other people what is right. And he will be able to answer people who talk against it.

bwe@Titus:1:9 @ There are many people who do not obey Gods truth. They talk about things that do no good, and they fool people by it. The Jewish leaders do this very much.

bwe@Titus:1:10 @ You must put a stop to their talking. They stop whole families from believing in Christ because they teach things which they have no right to teach. They teach because they want to get paid for it, even though it is wrong.

bwe@Titus:1:13 @ They must not use the old Jewish stories. They must not use the rules which were made by men who do not believe what is true.

bwe@Titus:1:14 @ All things are clean to those who have a clean mind. But nothing is clean to those who do wrong things and do not believe. Their minds and their hearts are full of wrong things.

bwe@Titus:2:2 @ Tell the older men that they must not drink too much wine. They must be men whom people respect. They must be wise. They must believe what is true. They must be loving and patient.

bwe@Titus:2:8 @ Be sure that what you say is true, so that no one can say anything against it. Then anyone who is against us will be made ashamed because he can find nothing wrong to say about us.

bwe@Titus:2:13 @ All this is while we wait and hope to see the one who brings blessing. We are waiting for our great God to come in Jesus Christ. He is the One who will save us. He is wonderful!

bwe@Titus:2:14 @ Christ gave himself for us so that he might make us free from all that is wrong. He gave himself to make us into clean people who belong to him and want to do good.

bwe@Titus:3:4 @ God who saves us showed how kind and good he is.

bwe@Titus:3:8 @ These are true words. And I want you to tell the people these things. Then those who have believed God will try to do good things. These things are right and help people.

bwe@Titus:3:9 @ Have nothing to do with: foolish quarrels; lists of people who lived long ago; those who make trouble and argue about the law. These things do not help people and are good for nothing.

bwe@Titus:3:10 @ Talk to any who do not believe right. Talk to them about it once or twice. Then, if they will not listen, have nothing more to do with them.

bwe@Titus:3:13 @ Our people should learn to spend their time in doing good things to help people who are poor. In that way, our people will not waste their time. Greet those who believe as we do and who love us. God bless you all.

bwe@Philemon:1:2 @ We also send greetings to our sister Apphia; to Archippus who is worker in Gods army as we are; and to the people who meet as a church in your house.

bwe@Philemon:1:16 @ Now he is not like a slave who must work for you. He is better than a slave. He is a Christian brother and you will love him. I love him very much. But you will love him even more because he belongs to you and he is a Christian.

bwe@Hebrews:1:2 @ In these last days, he talked to us through his Son. God chose him to be the one to whom he would give all things. God also made the world by this Son.

bwe@Hebrews:1:9 @ You have loved what is good and you have hated what is wrong. That is why God has poured out happiness on you, more than on those who are with you.

bwe@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are not all the angels spirits that help? They are sent out to help the people who will be saved.

bwe@Hebrews:2:2 @ What the angels said proved to be true. Every one who broke the law, and who did not obey it, was punished as he should be punished.

bwe@Hebrews:2:3 @ If that is so, then we will not get away without being punished. We will be punished if we forget or throw away this wonderful way to be saved. It was the Lord who first told people how to be saved. Then those who heard him told us the true way.

bwe@Hebrews:2:10 @ Everything was made for God and by God. It seemed good to him that Jesus life should be made complete, by going through the hard things that happened to him. This was because Jesus leads many people to heaven as Gods children. And he is the one who saves them.

bwe@Hebrews:2:11 @ Jesus, who makes people holy, and those who are made holy, all have one Father in heaven. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call them his brothers.

bwe@Hebrews:2:12 @ He said, I will tell my brothers about you. I will sing praise about you among those who gather together for worship.

bwe@Hebrews:2:16 @ Jesus did not come to help angels. He came to help people who were born in Abrahams family.

bwe@Hebrews:2:17 @ So he had to be made like his brothers in every way. Then he could be a high priest to make a way to God for them, a priest who was kind and true. He could make it possible for God to forgive people for the wrong things they had done.

bwe@Hebrews:2:18 @ He had a very hard time when he was tested. But because he was tested, he is able to help people who are tested.

bwe@Hebrews:3:3 @ But Jesus is much greater than Moses-as the one who builds a house is greater than the house itself.

bwe@Hebrews:3:4 @ Every house is built by someone, but God is the one who builds all things.

bwe@Hebrews:3:16 @ Who were the people who heard him and yet made him very angry? It was all the people whom Moses led out of the country of Egypt.

bwe@Hebrews:3:17 @ With whom was God angry for forty years? He was angry with the people who had done wrong. And they died in the desert.

bwe@Hebrews:3:18 @ Who were the people God said would never go into his resting place? They were the people who would not listen to him.

bwe@Hebrews:4:3 @ But we who believe, will go into that resting place of God. It is as God said, When I was angry, I said, "They will never go into my resting place." He said this even though his work had been finished ever since he had made the world.

bwe@Hebrews:4:6 @ So that means some people will go in. But the people who first heard the good news about it did not go in. They did not believe it.

bwe@Hebrews:4:7 @ So he chose another day called Today. He spoke through David many years later, who said, Today, when you hear his voice, do not make your hearts hard.

bwe@Hebrews:4:10 @ The person who goes into Gods resting place will rest after doing his work, just as God rested after doing his work.

bwe@Hebrews:4:14 @ We have a great high priest who has gone into heaven. He is Jesus, the Son of God. Because we have such a great high priest, let us hold on to the things we believe.

bwe@Hebrews:4:15 @ We have a high priest who can feel with us when we are weak. He has been tested in every way, just as we are. But he did not do anything wrong.

bwe@Hebrews:5:2 @ Such a high priest can be kind to people who do not know what is right and who do wrong. He knows how to share in the suffering of others because he himself is weak.

bwe@Hebrews:5:5 @ So Christ did not choose himself to be a high priest. But he was chosen by the One who said to him, You are my Son, and I am your Father today.

bwe@Hebrews:5:7 @ When Jesus was a man, he talked to God who was able to save him from death. He called loudly to him with tears. God heard him because he honoured and respected God.

bwe@Hebrews:5:9 @ When he became perfect, he saved for ever all who obeyed him.

bwe@Hebrews:5:13 @ Anyone who takes milk does not understand the message about which things are right.

bwe@Hebrews:5:14 @ But meat is for people who are grown up. It is for people who have trained their minds to know the difference between what is good and what is bad.

bwe@Hebrews:6:6 @ If people who were like that leave their faith in Christ, they cannot come to God again. They themselves nail Gods Son up on the cross again. They are holding him up to shame before everyone.

bwe@Hebrews:6:7 @ The ground drinks the water that often rains on it. It makes plants grow for the people who take care of it. And God blesses that ground.

bwe@Hebrews:6:9 @ This is the way we talk. But dear people, we are sure that better things are true about you. Yes, you show all the good ways of people who have been saved from their wrong ways.

bwe@Hebrews:6:12 @ Do not give up. But be like the people who get what God has promised. They believe God and keep on believing for a long time.

bwe@Hebrews:6:16 @ When men make a promise, they ask someone to hear it who is greater than they are. When someone great has heard a promise, it stops any quarrel about it.

bwe@Hebrews:7:1 @ Melchizedek was king of the city of Salem. He was a priest of God who is the greatest of all. Melchizedek met Abraham when Abraham came back from killing some bad kings. And Melchizedek blessed him.

bwe@Hebrews:7:2 @ Abraham divided all that he took away from the kings into ten parts. He gave Melchizedek one part. First, the name Melchizedek means the king who is true and right with God. Then he was king of Salem. That means king of peace.

bwe@Hebrews:7:5 @ The sons of Levi, who are priests, have the right by law to take a tenth of what the people have. These people are their own brothers. They also are Abrahams children.

bwe@Hebrews:7:6 @ But Melchizedek was not from Levis family. Yet he took a tenth of what Abraham had. And he blessed Abraham, to whom God made the promise.

bwe@Hebrews:7:7 @ Everyone knows this is true. The person who is blessed is not so great as the person who blesses him.

bwe@Hebrews:7:8 @ Here, priests take their tenth, but they are people who will die one day. But Melchizedek, who took his tenth, never dies. The holy writings say it is so.

bwe@Hebrews:7:9 @ And we say that Levi, the priest who takes the tenth from the people, gave his tenth through Abraham.

bwe@Hebrews:7:11 @ It was while the sons of Levi were priests that the law was made for the people. If those priests were good enough, why would another priest need to come who was like Melchizedek? Why would he not be like Aaron?

bwe@Hebrews:7:15 @ You can understand it even better when another priest comes who is like Melchizedek.

bwe@Hebrews:8:1 @ The real point of what we are saying is this. We now have a high priest who sits beside Gods throne or chief chair in heaven.

bwe@Hebrews:8:4 @ If he were still on earth, he would not be a priest. There are priests on earth already who offer gifts the way the law says.

bwe@Hebrews:8:6 @ But Christ has been given a much better work, because he is the man who is between God and men in making an agreement. This is a much better agreement. It was made by better promises.

bwe@Hebrews:9:13 @ The priest takes the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes from a young cow that has been burned. He puts this on the people who have done wrong things. This makes their bodies clean.

bwe@Hebrews:9:14 @ If the blood of animals can do that, then the blood of Christ will clean our hearts much better. Christ gave himself to God as the sacrifice. He did this by the Spirit who lives for ever. He was a perfect sacrifice. He will clean our hearts from useless acts of worship. Then we can serve the living God.

bwe@Hebrews:9:15 @ That is why he is the middle man of a new agreement. He died and paid for the wrong things that were done under the first agreement. Because he is a middle man, those people who are called by God can have what he promised. This will belong to them for ever.

bwe@Hebrews:9:16 @ A person can say who will get his things when he dies. He writes this agreement down. Before anyone can have them, it must be proved that the person has died.

bwe@Hebrews:9:17 @ The agreement has no power until the one who made it has died. It has no power as long as the one who made it is living.

bwe@Hebrews:9:25 @ Christ did not have to offer himself as a sacrifice many times. He is not like the high priest who went into the Holy Place every year and took blood that was not his own blood.

bwe@Hebrews:9:28 @ So Christ gave himself as a sacrifice only once. He took on himself the wrong things many people have done. He will come a second time. But he will not come to do anything about the wrong things people have done. He will come to save those who are looking and waiting for him.

bwe@Hebrews:10:2 @ If the law could make people all right, they would stop making sacrifices. The people who come to worship would be made clean for all time, and they would not remember the wrong things they had done.

bwe@Hebrews:10:14 @ By one sacrifice Christ has made right for ever all those people who are being made holy.

bwe@Hebrews:10:21 @ Also, we have a high priest who has charge of Gods people.

bwe@Hebrews:10:27 @ But we will be judged, and that makes us fear. Gods anger will be like a very hot fire that will burn up those who are against him.

bwe@Hebrews:10:28 @ Any man who broke the law of Moses was killed, if two or three people proved that he had broken the law. He will not be forgiven.

bwe@Hebrews:10:29 @ But the person who should have much bigger punishment is the one who turns against the Son of God. That person was made holy by the blood of the new agreement and then calls it nothing. He no longer honours and respects the Spirit who has been so kind to him.

bwe@Hebrews:10:30 @ We know God who has said, I am the one who will punish people. I will repay them. Also, The Lord will judge his people.

bwe@Hebrews:10:33 @ Sometimes it was because people said and did wrong things to you and everybody saw it. And sometimes it was because you stood with others who had wrong things done to them.

bwe@Hebrews:10:34 @ You shared in the troubles of those who were in prison. When your things were taken from you, you were happy. You knew that you had better things in heaven, things that would always belong to you.

bwe@Hebrews:10:37 @ The holy writings say In a little while, the one who is to come will come. He will not wait any longer.

bwe@Hebrews:10:39 @ We are not the people who turn back and so are lost. But we are people who believe, and so we are saved.

bwe@Hebrews:11:6 @ If a person does not believe God, he cannot please him. Anyone who comes to God must believe that God is real. And he must believe that God will bless those who try to find him. God will reward a person, if he really tries to find God.

bwe@Hebrews:11:14 @ People who say such things mean they are looking for a country which will be their own.

bwe@Hebrews:11:27 @ He believed God and left Egypt. He was not afraid of the kings anger. He was strong because he saw the one who cannot be seen.

bwe@Hebrews:11:28 @ He believed God and obeyed his law about the Passover Feast, and put blood on the door posts. He did this so that the angel who killed the oldest sons of the Egyptians, would pass over. Then he would not kill the oldest sons in the families of the Jews.

bwe@Hebrews:11:31 @ Rahab was a woman who used her body wrongly for sex to get money. But she believed in God, so she did not die with the people who did not believe in God. This was when the men came to spy out her country. She took them into her house in peace.

bwe@Hebrews:11:34 @ The big, hot fire did not burn them. They got away from men who wanted to kill them with long knives or swords. They were weak, but they became strong. They became very strong to fight. They drove away the armies of their enemies.

bwe@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women had children who died and were raised to life again. Some people allowed themselves to be beaten to death. They would not go free because they wanted to rise again to a better life.

bwe@Hebrews:12:7 @ Do not give up when you are punished. God is treating you like sons. Is there a son who has never been punished by his father?

bwe@Hebrews:12:11 @ At the time a person is punished, he is not glad. He is sad. But after it is over, there is peace. Then those who are trained by it do what is right.

bwe@Hebrews:12:23 @ You have come to the church people. They are Gods first sons, and their names are written in heaven. You have come to God who is the judge of all people. You have come to the spirits of good people who have been made right.

bwe@Hebrews:12:24 @ You have come to Jesus who is the middle man of a new agreement. You have come to the place where the spilling of his blood has more power than Abels.

bwe@Hebrews:12:25 @ Take care that you listen to God who is talking now. The people were punished when they would not listen to the One who talked on earth. And we will be punished much worse if we will not listen to the One who talks from heaven.

bwe@Hebrews:13:2 @ Take strangers to your home and care for them. Some people who have done this found out the strangers were angels.

bwe@Hebrews:13:3 @ Remember those who are in prison as if you were in prison with them. And remember those who are having troubles, as if you were having the same troubles.

bwe@Hebrews:13:4 @ Everyone must respect marriage. And the bed must be kept clean. God will punish those who use their bodies for wrong sex.

bwe@Hebrews:13:9 @ Do not listen to all kinds of different teaching and strange things. It is better to have a heart that is strong because of Gods blessing than a heart that is thinking about different kinds of food. Different kinds of food do not help people who put their trust in them.

bwe@Hebrews:13:10 @ We have a sacrifice. But priests who serve God on earth have no right to eat from this sacrifice.

bwe@Hebrews:13:16 @ But do not forget to do good things for people, and to give what you have to those who need it. These are sacrifices that please God.

bwe@Hebrews:13:24 @ Greet all your leaders and all of Gods people. Those who belong to the country of Italy send you greetings.

bwe@James:1:6 @ But when you ask, you must believe that God will do it. You must not doubt and think, Perhaps God will not do it. A person who doubts is like a wave on the sea. The wind drives it this way and that way.

bwe@James:1:9 @ A Christian brother who is poor should be glad: he is in a high place now he is a Christian.

bwe@James:1:10 @ A Christian brother who is rich should be glad: he is in a low place now he is a Christian. A rich man will pass away like a flower on the grass.

bwe@James:1:12 @ God will bless any man who is strong to take his trouble, when he is being tested. When he has proved he is strong, he will live for ever. That is what the Lord has promised to those who love him.

bwe@James:1:13 @ No one who wants to do something wrong should say, God is trying to make me do this wrong thing. God cannot do anything wrong.

bwe@James:1:23 @ Anyone who just listens to the word, and does not obey it, is like a man who looks at his face in a looking glass.

bwe@James:1:25 @ But there is a law that is all right. It sets people free from their old ways. Anyone who looks into that law and remembers it, is happy because he obeys the law. He does not just listen to the law and forget it, but he obeys what the law says.

bwe@James:1:27 @ This is what God the Father wants. It is clean and right. Go and help those who have no father and mother. Go and help widow women whose husbands are dead. These people have troubles. And keep yourself clean from the wrong things in the world.

bwe@James:2:3 @ You look at the man who wears fine clothes. And you say to him, Sit here on this good chair. But you say to the poor man, Stand over there, or you say, Sit on the floor by my feet.

bwe@James:2:5 @ Listen, my dear brothers. God has chosen people who are poor in this world. They believe very much. They will have a place in the kingdom which he has promised to give to those who love him.

bwe@James:2:6 @ But you made the poor man ashamed. Is it not the rich people who trouble you? Are not they the ones who take you to court?

bwe@James:2:7 @ Are not they the ones who say wrong things about the good name you have?

bwe@James:2:10 @ Anyone who obeys the law, but then breaks one of the laws, has broken all the laws.

bwe@James:2:12 @ There is a law that makes people free. It is the law of showing kindness. Always talk and live like men who will be judged by that law.

bwe@James:2:13 @ When God judges, he will not be kind to a person who has not been kind. It is better to be kind than it is to judge people.

bwe@James:3:1 @ My brothers, not many of you should be teachers. You know that we who teach will be punished more than other people.

bwe@James:3:2 @ We all do many wrong things. Any man who never says anything wrong is right in every way. He is able to make his whole body do what is right.

bwe@James:3:3 @ We put a piece of iron in the mouths of horses so they will obey us. Then we can make their whole bodies go where we want them to go.

bwe@James:3:6 @ The tongue is like a fire. It is like a whole world of trouble. It is a part of our body. And it makes our whole body bad. It burns up our whole life. And the fire that makes the tongue burn comes from hell.

bwe@James:3:13 @ Who among you is wise and knows about things? He should show what he knows by his good life. He will not be proud because he is wise.

bwe@James:3:14 @ Are you a person who is very jealous? In your hearts you want to be better than others? Then stop being proud of yourself. Do not say what is not true.

bwe@James:3:18 @ People who do not quarrel have peace. When there is peace, there is a good life.

bwe@James:4:4 @ You people promised God you would be true to him, but you did not stay true! Do you not know that if you love the world you hate God? Anyone who wants to be a lover of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

bwe@James:4:6 @ But God helps you even more than that. That is why the holy writings say, God fights against those who are proud, but he helps those who are not proud.

bwe@James:4:11 @ My brothers, do not say wrong things about each other. A man who says wrong things about his brother or judges his brother is saying wrong things about Gods law and he is judging Gods law. If you judge the law, you are not obeying the law, but you are a judge.

bwe@James:4:12 @ God made the law and he is the judge. And he is the one who can save you or kill you. Who are you that you should judge your neighbour?

bwe@James:5:4 @ Listen! Men worked in your fields to cut your grain and you did not pay them! That money shouts against you. The men who cut your harvest have called out to the Lord who has power and he has heard them.

bwe@James:5:10 @ My brothers, look at the lives of the prophets of God who spoke in the name of the Lord. See the troubles they had. They took them and waited. Do as they did.

bwe@James:5:11 @ God blesses those who take their troubles quietly and keep on believing. You have heard about Jobs troubles and how he took them. And you have seen what the Lord did for him at the end. The Lord is very kind and helps people.

bwe@James:5:20 @ Do not forget that the person who has brought a man back from his wrong ways will save that man from death. He will cover up many wrong things and be forgiven.

bwe@1Peter:1:12 @ The Spirit showed them that they told these things not for themselves, but for you. And now the men who told you the good news have told you these same things. They spoke by the power of the Holy Spirit who was sent from heaven. Even the angels wanted very much to know about these things.

bwe@1Peter:1:14 @ Be children who obey. Do not be like what you were before you knew Christ. Then you did anything you wanted to do.

bwe@1Peter:1:15 @ But be holy in all the things you do. Be holy because the one who has called you is holy.

bwe@1Peter:2:2 @ Babies who have just been born want milk very much. In the same way, you should want Gods word. That is like good milk. It will make you grow up so that you will then be fully saved.

bwe@1Peter:2:6 @ The holy writings say, Listen, I am placing a stone in Zion. It is the main stone of the house. I have chosen it and it is worth very much. Anyone who believes in him will not be ashamed.

bwe@1Peter:2:7 @ He is worth very much to you who believe in him. But some people do not believe in him. To them he is, the stone that the men who were building would not use. But now it is the chief stone at the corner.

bwe@1Peter:2:10 @ Dear brothers, you are people who do not belong to this world. You are like visitors who are on a journey. I beg you, do not do the things your body wants to do. Those things fight against your soul.

bwe@1Peter:2:11 @ Live good lives among the people who do not believe. They may talk about you as if you do wrong things. But when they see the good things you do, they will praise God on the day he comes to help you.

bwe@1Peter:2:13 @ Obey the rulers because they are sent by him. They are sent to punish those who do wrong things and to praise those who do good things.

bwe@1Peter:2:17 @ Servants, respect and obey your masters in all things. Obey not only those who are good to you. But also obey those who are hard on you.

bwe@1Peter:2:22 @ When people said wrong things to him, he did not say wrong things to them. When he was punished, he did not say, I will do something to you! But he trusted in God who judges what is right.

bwe@1Peter:2:24 @ Like lost sheep, you were going away from God. But now you have come back to the one who takes care of you and helps you.

bwe@1Peter:3:1 @ Wives, respect and obey your husbands in the same way. Then the husbands who do not obey the word of God will want to know God. They will want to know God because their wives live good lives, even though they say nothing about God.

bwe@1Peter:3:5 @ There were holy women long ago who trusted in God. They made themselves nice in this way. They obeyed their husbands.

bwe@1Peter:3:9 @ You must not do wrong things to those who do wrong things to you. You must not say wrong things to those who say wrong things to you. But ask God to bless those people. This is what you have been called to do. Then God will bless you.

bwe@1Peter:3:10 @ The holy writings say,A man who wants to live and have good days must not say wrong things. He must not say anything that is not true.

bwe@1Peter:3:12 @ The Lord watches over those who do good. He listens when they talk to him. But the Lord is against those who do wrong things.

bwe@1Peter:3:13 @ Who will do something bad to you if you want to do what is good?

bwe@1Peter:3:15 @ Worship Christ as Lord in your hearts. Always be ready to give an answer to anyone who asks you about the hope you have. But be gentle and respect him.

bwe@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ died that once because of our wrong ways. He was good and he died for those who were bad. He did this to bring us to God. His body died, but his spirit had new life.

bwe@1Peter:3:19 @ His spirit went and gave his message to peoples spirits who were in prison.

bwe@1Peter:4:3 @ In the time past you did the same things as people who do not believe God. Let that be enough. You did things you should be ashamed of. You did what you wanted to do. You got drunk. You got into fights. You took part in noisy feasting with dancing. You did wrong by worshipping idols.

bwe@1Peter:4:6 @ That is why the good news was also told to those who are now dead. They will be judged like men who are alive. This was done so that they could live like God in the spirit.

bwe@1Peter:4:17 @ The time has come for God to judge people. Gods people will be judged first. If we are judged first, what will happen at the end to those who do not obey the good news of God?

bwe@1Peter:4:18 @ The holy writings say, If it is hard for a good person to be saved, what will happen to a person who is against God and lives a bad life?

bwe@1Peter:5:4 @ Christ the big Shepherd who takes care of all people is coming. When he comes, he will give you a crown to show that you are great. You will have it for ever.

bwe@1Peter:5:5 @ Also, you who are younger men, obey your leaders. I say to all of you, do not be proud. Do not think you are better than the others. The holy writings say, God fights against proud people, but he helps those who are not proud.

bwe@1Peter:5:12 @ Silas has written this short letter for me. I believe he is a brother who can be trusted. I have written to help you and tell you the true way to have Gods blessing. Stand firm in that way!

bwe@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with a kiss of love. May all of you who are Christians have peace.

bwe@2Peter:1:1 @ I am Simon Peter. I am a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ. I send greetings to you who have believed as we have. Believing is worth just as much to you as it is to us. This is because our God and Saviour, Jesus Christ, is right and good.

bwe@2Peter:1:9 @ But the man who does not do these things is like a blind man. He can see only a little way. He has forgotten that he was made clean from the wrong things he used to do.

bwe@2Peter:2:1 @ But prophets who were not true were also among the people of Israel. Also there will be teachers who will not be true among you. They will bring in wrong teaching that leads to death. They will even say that they do not belong to the Master who bought them. And so they will quickly bring themselves to death.

bwe@2Peter:2:4 @ God punished the angels who did wrong. He put them into the darkest part of hell. They must be kept there until the time when they will be judged.

bwe@2Peter:2:5 @ In the days long ago, God punished the world. But he saved Noah who told people what was right. And God saved seven other people. But he made water cover the world full of bad people.

bwe@2Peter:2:10 @ Most of all, he will punish people who do the wrong things they want to do and who will not obey the men who rule over them. They are very bold and proud. They do not fear to say wrong things about those who are great, even about the angels.

bwe@2Peter:2:14 @ They are always looking for women to have sex with them. They never stop their wrong ways. They fool people whose hearts are not strong to do right. They always want more and more money. Gods curse is on them!

bwe@2Peter:2:18 @ They say big and foolish things. They fool people who have just left those who live in wrong ways. They fool them by making them want to do wrong things with their bodies.

bwe@2Peter:3:3 @ Here is the first thing. In the last days, men will come who will make fun of holy things. They will do what they themselves want to do.

bwe@2Peter:3:10 @ The day of the Lord will come like a man who wants to steal. There will be a loud noise and the sky will go away. The elements will melt with fire and they will be gone. The earth and everything on it will be burned up.

bwe@2Peter:3:11 @ That is the way the whole world will go. So think what kind of people you should be! Think how holy and true to God your lives should be!

bwe@1John:1:7 @ Do we live in the light, as God is in the light? Then we belong with others who belong to him. And the blood of the death of Jesus Christ makes us clean from all the wrong things we have done.

bwe@1John:2:1 @ My children, I am writing these things to you so that you will not do wrong things. But if anyone does something wrong, we have a Friend to help us. He speaks to God for us. He is Jesus Christ who does what is right.

bwe@1John:2:10 @ The man who loves his brother lives in the light. There is nothing in him to make him do wrong.

bwe@1John:2:11 @ But the man who hates his brother is in the dark. He lives in the dark. He does not know where he is going, because the darkness has made him blind.

bwe@1John:2:13 @ Fathers, I am writing to you because you know the One who has lived from the beginning. Young men, I am writing to you because you have won the victory over the devil. Children, I write to you because you know Father God.

bwe@1John:2:14 @ Fathers, I write to you because you know him, the one who has lived from the beginning. Young men, I write to you because you are strong. You believe Gods word. You have won the victory over the devil.

bwe@1John:2:17 @ And the world will go away and all the things in it that people like to do. But the person who does what God wants him to do will live for ever.

bwe@1John:2:18 @ Children, we are very near the end of time. You have heard that someone will come who is against Christ. Many who are against Christ have already come. That is how we know that we are very near the end of time.

bwe@1John:2:22 @ Who then is the one who says what is not true? It is the one who says that Jesus is not the Christ. That person is against Christ, because he says there is no Father and there is no Son.

bwe@1John:2:23 @ Everyone who says Jesus is not the Son does not know the Father. And everyone who says Jesus is the Son knows the Father.

bwe@1John:2:26 @ I have written these things to you about the ones who try to fool you.

bwe@1John:2:29 @ You know that he does what is right. So you know also that everyone who does what is right is his child.

bwe@1John:3:3 @ Everyone who has this hope about Christ makes his life holy. He makes his life holy and clean, just as Christ is holy.

bwe@1John:3:4 @ Everyone who does wrong things is breaking Gods law. Doing wrong things is breaking the law.

bwe@1John:3:5 @ You know that Christ came to take away the wrong things people have done. He is the one who has done no wrong.

bwe@1John:3:6 @ Everyone who stays with him does not do wrong things. Everyone who does wrong things has never seen him and has never known him.

bwe@1John:3:7 @ My children, do not let anyone fool you. Anyone who does what is good, is good just as Christ is good.

bwe@1John:3:8 @ Anyone who does what is wrong belongs to the devil. The devil has done what is wrong from the beginning. That is why Gods Son came. He came to stop what the devil does.

bwe@1John:3:9 @ No one who is Gods child does wrong things, because Gods life is in him. And he cannot keep on doing wrong things, because he is Gods child.

bwe@1John:3:10 @ This is how people can know who are Gods children and who are the devils children. Everyone who does not do right is not Gods child. And anyone who does not love his brother is not Gods child.

bwe@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have gone from death to life. We know this because we love the Christian brothers. Anyone who does not love them has not gone from death to life.

bwe@1John:3:15 @ Everyone who hates his brother is like a man who kills a person. And you know that no one who kills a person has life that will live for ever.

bwe@1John:4:1 @ My dear brothers, do not trust every spirit. But test the spirits to see if they belong to God. There are many prophets who are not true who have gone out into the world.

bwe@1John:4:3 @ And every spirit that does not say this about Jesus, does not belong to God. That is the spirit of the one who is against Christ. You have heard that he is coming. And now he is already in the world.

bwe@1John:4:4 @ My children, you belong to God. You have won the victory over those prophets who are not true. You have won because the Spirit that is in you is stronger than the spirit that is in the world.

bwe@1John:4:6 @ But we belong to God. Anyone who knows God listens to us. Anyone who does not belong to God does not listen to us. This is how we know if a spirit is true or not true.

bwe@1John:4:7 @ My dear brothers, we must love one another, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves others is Gods child and he knows God.

bwe@1John:4:8 @ But anyone who does not love others does not know God, because God is love.

bwe@1John:4:16 @ We know and we believe that God loves us. God is love. And anyone who loves others is in God and God is in him.

bwe@1John:4:18 @ Where Gods love is, there is no fear. Gods perfect love takes away fear. It is punishment that makes a person fear. Anyone who has fear does not have perfect love.

bwe@1John:4:20 @ If anyone says, I love God,and he hates his brother, he is telling a lie. If he does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

bwe@1John:4:21 @ God gave us this law. The person who loves God must love his brother also.

bwe@1John:5:1 @ Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is Gods child. And everyone who loves the Father loves his child.

bwe@1John:5:4 @ Everyone who is Gods child wins a victory over the world. We win because we believe God.

bwe@1John:5:5 @ Who wins a victory over the world? It is only the person who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

bwe@1John:5:7 @ There are three in heaven who prove it is true. They are the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit. These three are one.

bwe@1John:5:8 @ There are three on earth who prove it is true. They are the spirit, the water, and the blood. These three all prove the same thing.

bwe@1John:5:10 @ Anyone who believes in Gods Son believes what God says about him. Anyone who does not believe God shows that he thinks what God says is not true. He has not believed what God says about his Son.

bwe@1John:5:12 @ So anyone who has the Son has this life. Anyone who does not have the Son of God does not have this life.

bwe@1John:5:13 @ I have written these things to you who believe on the name of the Son of God. I have written them so that you will know that you will live for ever.

bwe@1John:5:19 @ We know that we belong to God and the whole world belongs to the devil.

bwe@1John:5:20 @ We know that the Son of God has come. He has given us a heart to know him who is true. We belong to him who is true, because we belong to his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God. He has the life that will live for ever.

bwe@2John:1:1 @ From the leader of the church people. I send greetings to the lady whom God has chosen, and to her children. I love you all because you have the truth about Christ. I am not the only one who loves you. All those who know the truth, love you also.

bwe@2John:1:7 @ Many men who fool people have gone out into the world. They believe that Jesus Christ did not come to live as a man with a body. These men belong to the one who fools people. He is against Christ.

bwe@2John:1:9 @ Everyone who goes too far, and does not believe what Christ taught, does not believe God. Anyone who believes what Christ taught, believes both the Father and the Son.

bwe@2John:1:10 @ If anyone comes to you who does not teach what Christ taught, do not take him into your house. Do not even greet him.

bwe@2John:1:11 @ Anyone who greets him helps him in the wrong things he does.

bwe@2John:1:13 @ The children of your sister whom God has chosen send their greetings.

bwe@3John:1:6 @ They went out to do Christs work. And they have not taken any help from people who do not believe in God.

bwe@3John:1:8 @ So if I come, I will show what he is doing. He is saying wrong things about us. And that is not all. He does not take our brothers into his own home. And he stops other people who want to take them in. He will not let them be church members any longer.

bwe@3John:1:9 @ My dear brother, do not do the wrong things people do, but do the good things people do. Anyone who does good things belongs to God. Anyone who does wrong things has never seen God.

bwe@Jude:1:1 @ I am Jude. I am a servant of Jesus Christ and I am a brother of James. I send greetings to you whom God the Father has called. He has loved you and kept you safe for Jesus Christ.

bwe@Jude:1:3 @ My dear brothers, I wanted very much to write to you and tell you how we all are saved. But then I saw that I must write and tell you to hold very strongly to what you do believe. Fight against those who want to change it. The right way to believe has been given to Gods people once for all times.

bwe@Jude:1:5 @ You know all these things for all times. But I want to bring them to your minds. First, the Lord saved his people from the country of Egypt. At a time after that, he killed those who did not believe in him.

bwe@Jude:1:8 @ And yet these men do the same wrong things. They think of and do wrong things with their bodies. They will not obey the men who rule over them. And they say wrong things about those who are great, even about the angels.

bwe@Jude:1:9 @ At one time Michael the chief angel had a quarrel with the devil about who should have the body of Moses. But he did not dare to judge the devil and say wrong things about him. He said, May the Lord tell you to stop!

bwe@Jude:1:11 @ They will have trouble! They have lived like Cain. They have done wrong things for pay like Balaam. They have talked against those who are over them. Korah did that. And so they will die as he did.

bwe@Jude:1:18 @ They said to you, At the end of time, men will come who will make fun of holy things. They will do the wrong things they themselves want to do.

bwe@Jude:1:19 @ These are the men who make people go into different groups in the church meetings. They have only a mans heart. They do not have the Holy Spirit.

bwe@Jude:1:23 @ Pull them out of the fire and save them. There are other people to whom you must be kind, but be careful about it. But you must hate even the clothes that bad people have worn.
