tcent@Matthew:9:2 @ And behold, they brought to him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And when Jesus saw their faith he said to the paralytic, »Take heart, my son; your sins are forgiven.«

tcent@Matthew:9:5 @ For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Rise and walk’?

tcent@Matthew:9:6 @ But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins«—he then said to the paralytic—»Rise, take up your bed and go home.«

tcent@Matthew:9:13 @ But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.«

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

tcent@Matthew:9:18 @ While he was saying these things to them, behold, a ruler came and knelt before him, saying, »My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her and she will live.«

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

tcent@Matthew:9:21 @ For she said to herself, »If I only touch his garment, I shall be made well.«

tcent@Matthew:9:24 @ he said, »Depart; for the girl is not dead but sleeping.« And they laughed at him.

tcent@Matthew:9:36 @ When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.

tcent@Matthew:9:38 @ Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.«

tcent@Matthew:10:10 @ nor bag for your journey, nor two tunics, nor sandals, nor a staff; for the worker is worthy of his food.

tcent@Matthew:10:15 @ Truly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah than for that town.

tcent@Matthew:10:16 @ »Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.

tcent@Matthew:10:17 @ But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to councils and flog you in their synagogues.

tcent@Matthew:10:18 @ You will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles.

tcent@Matthew:10:19 @ But when they deliver you up, do not worry about how you are to speak or what you are to say; for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour;

tcent@Matthew:10:20 @ for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.

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

tcent@Matthew:10:23 @ When they persecute you in one city, flee to another. For truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

tcent@Matthew:10:25 @ It is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they call those of his household!

tcent@Matthew:10:26 @ »So do not fear them. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.

tcent@Matthew:10:29 @ Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father’s will.

tcent@Matthew:10:31 @ Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.

tcent@Matthew:10:32 @ »Therefore whoever acknowledges me before men, him I will also acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven.

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

tcent@Matthew:10:35 @ For I have come

tcent@Matthew:10:39 @ He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.

tcent@Matthew:11:3 @ and said to him, »Are you the One who is to come, or shall we look for another?«

tcent@Matthew:11:10 @ For this is he of whom it is written:

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

tcent@Matthew:11:13 @ For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied until John.

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

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

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

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

tcent@Matthew:11:26 @ Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure.

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

tcent@Matthew:11:30 @ For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.«

tcent@Matthew:12:12 @ Of how much more value is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.«

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

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

tcent@Matthew:12:32 @ Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.

tcent@Matthew:12:33 @ »Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit.

tcent@Matthew:12:34 @ You brood of vipers! how can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

tcent@Matthew:12:35 @ The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things.

tcent@Matthew:12:36 @ But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken.

tcent@Matthew:12:37 @ For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.«

tcent@Matthew:12:39 @ But he answered them, »An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign; but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

tcent@Matthew:12:40 @ For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

tcent@Matthew:12:41 @ The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now one greater than Jonah is here.

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

tcent@Matthew:12:50 @ For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.«

tcent@Matthew:13:12 @ For whoever has, to him will more be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.

tcent@Matthew:13:16 @ But blessed are your eyes for they see, and your ears for they hear.

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

tcent@Matthew:13:21 @ yet he has no root in himself, but endures only for a while. And when tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he falls away.

tcent@Matthew:13:24 @ Another parable he put forth to them, saying: »The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field;

tcent@Matthew:13:31 @ Another parable he put forth to them, saying: »The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field;

tcent@Matthew:13:38 @ the field is the world, and the good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,

tcent@Matthew:13:40 @ Therefore as the weeds are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age.

tcent@Matthew:13:52 @ And he said to them, »Therefore every scribe who has been instructed for the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure what is new and what is old.«

tcent@Matthew:14:3 @ For Herod had laid hold of John and bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,

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

tcent@Matthew:14:6 @ But when Herod’s birthday was celebrated, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod,

tcent@Matthew:14:22 @ Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the multitudes.

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

tcent@Matthew:14:26 @ But when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, saying, »It is a ghost!« And they cried out for fear.

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

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

tcent@Matthew:15:4 @ For God commanded, ‘Honor your father and your mother’; and, ‘He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.’

tcent@Matthew:15:6 @ he is not to honor his father with it. Thus you have made the word of God of no effect for the sake of your tradition.

tcent@Matthew:15:19 @ For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, fornications, theft, false witness, slander.

tcent@Matthew:15:23 @ But he did not answer her a word. And his disciples came and urged him, saying, »Send her away, for she is crying out after us.«

tcent@Matthew:15:25 @ But she came and knelt before him, saying, »Lord, help me!«

tcent@Matthew:15:28 @ Then Jesus answered her, »O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you desire.« And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

tcent@Matthew:16:2 @ He answered them, »When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather; for the sky is red.’

tcent@Matthew:16:3 @ And in the morning, ‘It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.

tcent@Matthew:16:4 @ A wicked and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign shall be given to it except the sign of Jonah.« So he left them and departed.

tcent@Matthew:16:5 @ When the disciples reached the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.

tcent@Matthew:16:17 @ And Jesus answered him, »Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.

tcent@Matthew:16:23 @ But he turned and said to Peter, »Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; for you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.«

tcent@Matthew:16:25 @ For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

tcent@Matthew:16:26 @ What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?

tcent@Matthew:16:27 @ For the Son of Man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will reward each man according to what he has done.

tcent@Matthew:16:28 @ Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.«

tcent@Matthew:17:2 @ And he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light.

tcent@Matthew:17:4 @ And Peter said to Jesus, »Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you wish, I will make here three tabernacles—one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.«

tcent@Matthew:17:14 @ And when they came to the crowd, a man came up to him and kneeling before him said,

tcent@Matthew:17:15 @ »Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is an epileptic and he suffers terribly; for often he falls into the fire, and often into the water.

tcent@Matthew:17:20 @ So he said to them, »Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.«

tcent@Matthew:17:27 @ Nevertheless, so that we may not offend them, go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you open its mouth, you will find a piece of money; take that and give it to them for me and you.«

tcent@Matthew:18:4 @ Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

tcent@Matthew:18:6 @ »But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.

tcent@Matthew:18:7 @ Woe to the world because of temptations to sin! For temptations must come, but woe to the man by whom the temptation comes!

tcent@Matthew:18:8 @ And if your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or lame than with two hands or two feet to be thrown into the eternal fire.

tcent@Matthew:18:9 @ And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.

tcent@Matthew:18:10 @ »See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.

tcent@Matthew:18:19 @ Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.

tcent@Matthew:18:20 @ For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.«

tcent@Matthew:18:21 @ Then Peter came to him and said, »Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?«

tcent@Matthew:18:23 @ Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.

tcent@Matthew:18:26 @ So the servant fell on his knees before him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.’

tcent@Matthew:18:27 @ The master of that servant took pity on him, released him, and forgave him the debt.

tcent@Matthew:18:32 @ Then his master, after he had called him, said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me.

tcent@Matthew:18:35 @ So also my heavenly Father will do to each of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.«

tcent@Matthew:19:3 @ Some Pharisees came to him to test him. They asked, »Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason?«

tcent@Matthew:19:5 @ and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’?

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

tcent@Matthew:19:9 @ And I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.«

tcent@Matthew:19:12 @ For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept it, let him accept it.«

tcent@Matthew:19:14 @ But Jesus said, »Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them; for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.«

tcent@Matthew:19:22 @ But when the young man heard this, he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.

tcent@Matthew:19:23 @ Then Jesus said to his disciples, »Truly I say to you, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.

tcent@Matthew:19:24 @ Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.«

tcent@Matthew:19:29 @ And every one who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands, for my name’s sake, will receive a hundredfold, and inherit eternal life.

tcent@Matthew:20:1 @ »For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.

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

tcent@Matthew:20:13 @ But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius?

tcent@Matthew:20:15 @ Is it not lawful for me to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?’

tcent@Matthew:20:22 @ But Jesus answered, »You do not know what you are asking for. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?« They said to him, »We are able.«

tcent@Matthew:20:23 @ He said to them, »You will indeed drink my cup, but to sit at my right or my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.«

tcent@Matthew:20:28 @ just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.«

tcent@Matthew:20:32 @ And Jesus stopped and called them, saying, »What do you want me to do for you? »

tcent@Matthew:21:9 @ The crowds that went before him and those that followed shouted,

tcent@Matthew:21:26 @ But if we say, ‘From men,’ we are afraid of the multitude; for all hold that John was a prophet.«

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

tcent@Matthew:21:32 @ For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the harlots believed him; and even when you saw it, you did not afterward repent and believe him.

tcent@Matthew:21:40 @ Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants?«

tcent@Matthew:21:43 @ »Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a nation bearing the fruits of it.

tcent@Matthew:22:2 @ »The kingdom of heaven is like a king who arranged a marriage for his son,

tcent@Matthew:22:9 @ Go therefore to the highways, and invite to the marriage feast as many as you find.’

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

tcent@Matthew:22:16 @ And they sent their disciples to him, along with the Herodians, saying, »Teacher, we know that you are true, and teach the way of God in truth, and you care for no man; for you do not regard the position of men.

tcent@Matthew:22:19 @ Show me the money for the tax.« And they brought him a denarius.

tcent@Matthew:22:21 @ They said, »Caesar’s.« Then he said to them, »Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.«

tcent@Matthew:22:24 @ saying, »Teacher, Moses said that if a man dies, having no children, his brother must marry the widow, and raise up children for his brother.

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

tcent@Matthew:22:30 @ For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.

tcent@Matthew:22:31 @ But as for the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was said to you by God,

tcent@Matthew:23:3 @ So you must observe and do whatever they tell you. But do not do what they do; for they preach, but do not practice.

tcent@Matthew:23:5 @ But they do all their works to be seen by men; for they make their phylacteries broad and the tassels of their garments long.

tcent@Matthew:23:8 @ But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have only one Master, and you are all brethren.

tcent@Matthew:23:9 @ And do not call anyone on earth your ‘Father,’ for you have one Father, he who is in heaven.

tcent@Matthew:23:10 @ Nor are you to be called ‘Teacher,’ for you have one Teacher, the Christ.

tcent@Matthew:23:12 @ For whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

tcent@Matthew:23:13 @ »But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; for you neither enter yourselves, nor do you allow those who would enter to go in.

tcent@Matthew:23:15 @ »Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel land and sea to win a single proselyte, and when he becomes one, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.

tcent@Matthew:23:17 @ You blind fools! For which is greater, the gold or the temple that has made the gold sacred?

tcent@Matthew:23:19 @ You blind men! For which is greater, the gift or the altar that makes the gift sacred?

tcent@Matthew:23:20 @ Therefore, he who swears by the altar swears by it and by everything on it.

tcent@Matthew:23:23 @ »Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithe of mint and dill and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the Law, justice and mercy and faith. These you ought to have done, without neglecting the others.

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

tcent@Matthew:23:27 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which outwardly appear beautiful, but inside they are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness.

tcent@Matthew:23:29 @ »Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you build the tombs of the prophets and adorn the monuments of the righteous,

tcent@Matthew:23:30 @ And you say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our forefathers, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.’

tcent@Matthew:23:34 @ Therefore I send you prophets and wise men and scribes. Some of them you will kill and crucify, and some you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute from town to town,

tcent@Matthew:23:39 @ For I tell you, you will not see me again, until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.’«

tcent@Matthew:24:5 @ For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.

tcent@Matthew:24:6 @ And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

tcent@Matthew:24:7 @ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

tcent@Matthew:24:9 @ Then they will deliver you up to tribulation, and put you to death; and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake.

tcent@Matthew:24:19 @ But woe for those who are pregnant and for those who are nursing babies in those days!

tcent@Matthew:24:21 @ For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be.

tcent@Matthew:24:22 @ And if those days had not been shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.

tcent@Matthew:24:24 @ For false christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

tcent@Matthew:24:25 @ See, I have told you beforehand.

tcent@Matthew:24:27 @ For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

tcent@Matthew:24:32 @ »Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near.

tcent@Matthew:24:38 @ For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,

tcent@Matthew:24:42 @ Watch therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.

tcent@Matthew:24:44 @ Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

tcent@Matthew:25:3 @ For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them;

tcent@Matthew:25:8 @ And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’

tcent@Matthew:25:9 @ But the wise replied, ‘No, there may not be enough for both us and you; go rather to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’

tcent@Matthew:25:13 @ Therefore keep watch, for you know neither the day nor the hour.

tcent@Matthew:25:14 @ »For it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his property to them.

tcent@Matthew:25:28 @ Therefore take the talent from him, and give it to him who has the ten talents.

tcent@Matthew:25:29 @ For to every one who has will more be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away.

tcent@Matthew:25:32 @ All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate them one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.

tcent@Matthew:25:34 @ Then the King will say to those on his right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

tcent@Matthew:25:35 @ for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you took me in,

tcent@Matthew:25:42 @ for I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink,

tcent@Matthew:26:9 @ For this perfume might have been sold for a high price and given to the poor.«

tcent@Matthew:26:10 @ But Jesus, aware of this, said to them, »Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a beautiful thing to me.

tcent@Matthew:26:11 @ For you always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me.

tcent@Matthew:26:12 @ For in pouring this perfume on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial.

tcent@Matthew:26:17 @ Now on the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying, »Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?«

tcent@Matthew:26:24 @ The Son of Man goes just as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had not been born.«

tcent@Matthew:26:28 @ For this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

tcent@Matthew:26:31 @ Then Jesus said to them, »You will all fall away because of me this night; for it is written,

tcent@Matthew:26:32 @ But after I have been raised, I will go before you to Galilee.«

tcent@Matthew:26:34 @ Jesus said to him, »Truly I say to you, this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.«

tcent@Matthew:26:43 @ And again he came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.

tcent@Matthew:26:52 @ But Jesus said to him, »Put your sword back in its place, for all who take the sword will perish by the sword.

tcent@Matthew:26:56 @ But all this has taken place, that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.« Then all the disciples forsook him and fled.

tcent@Matthew:26:60 @ but they found none, though many false witnesses came forward. At last two came forward

tcent@Matthew:26:73 @ After a little while those who stood by came up and said to Peter, »Surely you are also one of them, for your accent betrays you.«

tcent@Matthew:26:75 @ And Peter remembered the word Jesus had said, »Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.« So he went out and wept bitterly.

tcent@Matthew:27:11 @ Now Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, »Are you the king of the Jews?« So Jesus said to him, »It is as you say.«

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

tcent@Matthew:27:17 @ So when they had gathered, Pilate said to them, »Whom do you want me to release for you, Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?«

tcent@Matthew:27:18 @ For he knew it was out of envy that they had handed him over.

tcent@Matthew:27:19 @ While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent word to him, »Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered greatly today in a dream because of him.«

tcent@Matthew:27:20 @ But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the multitudes to ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus.

tcent@Matthew:27:24 @ When Pilate saw that he was gaining nothing, but rather that a riot was starting, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, »I am innocent of this man’s blood. See to it yourselves.«

tcent@Matthew:27:29 @ and when they had twisted a crown of thorns, they put it on his head, and a reed in his right hand. And they bowed the knee before him and mocked him, saying, »Hail, King of the Jews!«

tcent@Matthew:27:43 @ He trusts in God; let God deliver him now, if he desires him; for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’«

tcent@Matthew:27:46 @ And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, »Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?« that is, »My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?«

tcent@Matthew:27:58 @ He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered it to be given to him.

tcent@Matthew:27:64 @ Therefore order that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night and steal him away, and tell the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ So the last deception will be worse than the first.«

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

tcent@Matthew:28:4 @ And the guards shook for fear of him, and became like dead men.

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

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

tcent@Matthew:28:7 @ Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead. And behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. Behold, I have told you.«

tcent@Matthew:28:16 @ Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had appointed for them.

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

tcent@Mark:1:16 @ And as he walked by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the Sea; for they were fishermen.

tcent@Mark:1:22 @ And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one who had authority, and not as the scribes.

tcent@Mark:1:35 @ Now in the morning, a long while before daylight, he rose and went out to a solitary place, and there he prayed.

tcent@Mark:1:36 @ And Simon and those who were with him searched for him,

tcent@Mark:1:37 @ and when they found him, they said to him, »Everyone is looking for you.«

tcent@Mark:1:38 @ And he said to them, »Let us go on to the next towns, so I may preach there also; for that is why I have come.«

tcent@Mark:1:44 @ and he said to him, »See that you say nothing to anyone; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.«

tcent@Mark:2:5 @ When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, »Son, your sins are forgiven.«

tcent@Mark:2:7 @ »Why does this man speak like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?«

tcent@Mark:2:27 @ And he said to them, »The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.

tcent@Mark:3:9 @ And he told his disciples to have a small boat ready for him because of the crowd, lest they should crush him.

tcent@Mark:3:10 @ For he had healed many, so that all who had diseases pressed upon him to touch him.

tcent@Mark:3:11 @ And whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him and cried out, »You are the Son of God.«

tcent@Mark:3:21 @ When his family heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, »He is out of his mind.«

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

tcent@Mark:3:29 @ but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin«—

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

tcent@Mark:5:9 @ Then Jesus asked him, »What is your name?« And he replied, »My name is Legion, for we are many.«

tcent@Mark:5:19 @ Jesus did not let him, but said, »Go home to your friends and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.«

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

tcent@Mark:5:25 @ And there was a woman who had endured a flow of blood for twelve years,

tcent@Mark:5:28 @ For she said, »If I touch even his clothes, I shall be made well.«

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

tcent@Mark:6:45 @ Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he dismissed the crowd.

tcent@Mark:6:48 @ And he saw the disciples straining at the oars, for the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. He was about to pass by them,

tcent@Mark:6:50 @ for they all saw him, and were terrified. But immediately he spoke to them and said, »Take courage! It is I; do not be afraid.«

tcent@Mark:7:29 @ Then he said to her, »For this saying you may go your way; the demon has left your daughter.«

tcent@Mark:8:6 @ So he commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. And he took the seven loaves, and having given thanks he broke them and gave them to his disciples to set before the people; and they set them before the crowd.

tcent@Mark:8:7 @ They also had a few small fish; and having blessed them, he commanded that these also should be set before them.

tcent@Mark:8:14 @ Now the disciples had forgotten to bring bread, and they had only one loaf with them in the boat.

tcent@Mark:8:19 @ When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?« They said to him, »Twelve.«

tcent@Mark:8:20 @ »And when I broke the seven for the four thousand, how many large baskets full of pieces did you take up?« And they said, »Seven.«

tcent@Mark:8:33 @ But when he had turned around and looked at his disciples, he rebuked Peter, and said, »Get behind me, Satan! For you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.«

tcent@Mark:8:35 @ For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel’s will save it.

tcent@Mark:9:6 @ For he did not know what to say, for they were greatly afraid.

tcent@Mark:9:31 @ For he was teaching his disciples and said to them, »The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of men. They will kill him, and when he is killed, after three days he will rise.«

tcent@Mark:9:34 @ But they kept silent; for on the way they had discussed with one another who was the greatest.

tcent@Mark:9:38 @ John said to him, »Teacher, we saw a man casting out demons in your name and we forbade him, because he was not one of us.«

tcent@Mark:9:39 @ But Jesus said, »Do not forbid him, for no one who does a miracle in my name can soon afterward speak evil of me.

tcent@Luke:18:24 @ Jesus looked at him and said, »How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!

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

tcent@Luke:18:29 @ So he said to them, »Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,

tcent@Luke:19:3 @ And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not because of the crowd, for he was of short stature.

tcent@Luke:19:4 @ So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was to pass that way.

tcent@Luke:19:5 @ And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, »Zacchaeus, make haste and come down; for I must stay at your house today.«

tcent@Luke:19:10 @ For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost.«

tcent@Luke:19:12 @ Therefore he said: »A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and then return.

tcent@Luke:19:27 @ But those enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them before me.’«

tcent@Luke:19:37 @ And, as he was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen,

tcent@Luke:20:6 @ But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.«

tcent@Luke:20:9 @ Then he began to tell the people this parable: »A man planted a vineyard, leased it to vine-dressers, and went into another country for a long time.

tcent@Luke:20:19 @ The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew that he had spoken this parable against them.

tcent@Luke:22:2 @ And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to kill him, for they feared the people.

tcent@Luke:22:8 @ So he sent Peter and John, saying, »Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.«

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

tcent@John:3:16 @ For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

tcent@John:4:8 @ For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

tcent@John:4:9 @ Then the woman of Samaria said to him, »How is it that you, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?« For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

tcent@John:4:18 @ for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; this you have said truly.«

tcent@John:4:42 @ They said to the woman, »We no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man is indeed the Savior of the world.«

tcent@John:4:44 @ For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

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

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

tcent@John:4:49 @ The official said to him, »Sir, come down before my child dies.«

tcent@John:5:5 @ One man who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years.

tcent@John:5:6 @ When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been in this condition for a long time, he said to him, »Do you want to be made well?«

tcent@John:5:7 @ The sick man answered him, »Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me.«

tcent@John:5:10 @ So the Jews said to the man who was cured, »It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed.«

tcent@John:5:13 @ Now the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, as there was a crowd in that place.

tcent@John:5:16 @ For this reason the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath.

tcent@John:5:18 @ Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.

tcent@John:5:19 @ Jesus said to them, »Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of himself, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever he does, the Son also does.

tcent@John:5:20 @ For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things that he himself does; and he will show him greater works than these, that you may marvel.

tcent@John:5:21 @ For as the Father raises the dead and gives life to them, even so the Son gives life to whom he will.

tcent@John:5:22 @ For the Father judges no one, but has given all judgment to the Son,

tcent@John:5:26 @ For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself,

tcent@John:5:28 @ Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming when all who are in the graves will hear his voice

tcent@John:5:29 @ and come forth – those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.

tcent@John:5:35 @ He was a burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a time in his light.

tcent@John:5:36 @ But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father has given me to finish, these very works which I am doing, bear witness of me, that the Father has sent me.

tcent@John:5:37 @ And the Father who sent me has himself testified of me. You have never heard his voice, nor seen his form.

tcent@John:5:38 @ And you do not have his word abiding in you, for you do not believe him whom he has sent.

tcent@John:5:46 @ If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me.

tcent@John:6:2 @ And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his signs which he performed on those who were diseased.

tcent@John:6:6 @ But this he said to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.

tcent@John:6:7 @ Philip answered him, »Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each one of them to have a little.«

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

tcent@John:6:27 @ Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you; for on him has God the Father set his seal.«

tcent@John:6:30 @ So they said to him, »What sign will you perform then, that we may see it and believe you? What work will you do?

tcent@John:6:33 @ For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.«

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

tcent@John:6:40 @ For this is the will of my Father, that every one who sees the Son and believes in him should have eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.«

tcent@John:6:51 @ I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh.«

tcent@John:6:55 @ For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

tcent@John:6:58 @ This is the bread which came down from heaven, not as your fathers ate the manna and died. He who eats this bread will live for ever.«

tcent@John:6:62 @ What then if you should see the Son of Man ascend to where he was before?

tcent@John:6:64 @ But there are some of you who do not believe.« For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who would betray him.

tcent@John:6:71 @ He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, for it was he who was to betray him, though one of the twelve.

tcent@John:7:4 @ For no one works in secret if he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, show yourself to the world.«

tcent@John:7:5 @ For even his brothers did not believe in him.

tcent@John:7:8 @ You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, for my time has not yet fully come.«

tcent@John:7:11 @ The Jews were looking for him at the feast, and saying, »Where is he?«

tcent@John:7:13 @ However, no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.

tcent@John:8:9 @ Then those who heard it went away one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last, and Jesus was left alone, with the woman standing before him.

tcent@John:8:16 @ And yet if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent me.

tcent@John:9:22 @ His parents said this because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had agreed already that if anyone confessed that he was Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.

tcent@John:12:27 @ »Now is my soul troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour’? No, for this purpose I came to this hour.

tcent@John:12:30 @ Jesus answered, »This voice has come for your sake, not for mine.

tcent@John:12:34 @ The crowd answered him, »We have heard from the Law that the Christ remains forever; and how can you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?«

tcent@John:12:37 @ Though he had done so many signs before them, yet they did not believe in him;

tcent@John:12:39 @ Therefore they could not believe, because Isaiah said again:

tcent@John:12:43 @ for they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

tcent@John:12:47 @ If anyone hears my words and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.

tcent@John:12:49 @ For I have not spoken on my own authority; but the Father who sent me gave me a command, what to say and what to speak.

tcent@John:12:50 @ And I know that his command is eternal life. Whatever I say, therefore, I say just as the Father has told me.«

tcent@John:13:1 @ Now before the feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

tcent@John:13:11 @ For he knew who was to betray him; that was why he said, »You are not all clean.«

tcent@John:13:13 @ You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am.

tcent@John:13:15 @ For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.

tcent@John:13:19 @ Now I tell you before it comes, that when it does take place, you may believe that I am he.

tcent@John:13:29 @ Some thought that, because Judas had the money box, Jesus was telling him, »Buy what we need for the feast«; or, that he should give something to the poor.

tcent@John:13:35 @ By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.«

tcent@John:13:37 @ Peter said to him, »Lord, why can I not follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.«

tcent@John:13:38 @ Jesus answered, »Will you lay down your life for me? Truly, truly, I say to you, the rooster will not crow, till you have denied me three times.

tcent@John:14:2 @ In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

tcent@John:14:3 @ And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

tcent@John:14:8 @ Philip said to him, »Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.«

tcent@John:14:11 @ Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father in me; or else believe me for the sake of the works themselves.

tcent@John:14:16 @ And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, to be with you forever –

tcent@John:14:17 @ the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him; but you know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you.

tcent@John:14:28 @ You have heard me say to you, ‘I am going away and coming back to you.’ If you loved me, you would rejoice because I said, ‘I am going to the Father,’ for the Father is greater than I.

tcent@John:14:29 @ And now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place, you may believe.

tcent@John:14:30 @ I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in me.

tcent@John:15:5 @ I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in him, he bears much fruit; for apart from me you can do nothing.

tcent@John:15:7 @ If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.

tcent@John:15:13 @ Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.

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

tcent@John:15:18 @ »If the world hates you, know that it hated me before it hated you.

tcent@John:15:19 @ If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

tcent@John:15:21 @ But all this they will do to you for my name's sake, because they do not know him who sent me.

tcent@John:15:22 @ If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.

tcent@John:16:7 @ Nevertheless I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away. For if I do not go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

tcent@John:16:13 @ But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth; for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak; and he will tell you things to come.

tcent@John:16:14 @ He will glorify me, for he will take of what is mine and declare it to you.

tcent@John:16:15 @ All that the Father has is mine. Therefore I said that he will take of what is mine and declare it to you.

tcent@John:16:21 @ When a woman is in labor she has sorrow, because her hour has come; but as soon as she gives birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a child has been born into the world.

tcent@John:16:26 @ In that day you will ask in my name. And I do not say to you that I shall pray the Father for you;

tcent@John:16:27 @ for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.

tcent@John:16:30 @ Now we are sure that you know all things, and have no need for anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came from God.«

tcent@John:16:32 @ Indeed the hour is coming, yes, has now come, when you will be scattered, each to his own, and will leave me alone. And yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.

tcent@John:17:5 @ And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory which I had with you before the world was made.

tcent@John:17:8 @ For I have given them the words which you have given me, and they have received them and know in truth that I came from you; and they have believed that you sent me.

tcent@John:17:9 @ I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours.

tcent@John:17:19 @ And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.

tcent@John:17:20 @ »I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in me through their word;

tcent@John:17:24 @ Father, I desire that they also whom you have given me may be with me where I am, that they may behold my glory which you have given me, for you loved me before the foundation of the world.

tcent@John:18:2 @ Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place; for Jesus often met there with his disciples.

tcent@John:18:4 @ Then Jesus, knowing all that was to come upon him, went forward and said to them, »Whom do you seek?«

tcent@John:18:13 @ And they led him to Annas first; for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.

tcent@John:18:14 @ Now it was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

tcent@John:18:25 @ Now Simon Peter stood warming himself. Therefore they said to him, »You are not also one of his disciples, are you?« He denied it and said, »I am not.«

tcent@John:18:31 @ Pilate said to them, »Take him yourselves and judge him by your own law.« The Jews said to him, »It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death.«

tcent@John:18:37 @ Pilate said to him, »You are a king then?« Jesus answered, »You say what I am—a king. For this I was born, and for this I have come into the world, to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears my voice.«

tcent@John:18:39 @ But you have a custom that I should release one man for you at the Passover. So do you want me to release to you the King of the Jews?«

tcent@John:19:6 @ When the chief priests and officers saw him, they cried out, »Crucify him, crucify him!« Pilate said to them, »You take him and crucify him, for I find no fault in him.«

tcent@John:19:11 @ Jesus answered, »You would have no power over me unless it had been given you from above. Therefore the one who delivered me to you has the greater sin.«

tcent@John:19:20 @ Many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin.

tcent@John:19:23 @ When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his garments, and made four parts, one for each soldier, and also his tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven in one piece from top to bottom.

tcent@John:19:24 @ So they said to one another, »Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be.« This happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says:

tcent@John:19:31 @ Therefore, because it was the day of Preparation, that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

tcent@John:19:36 @ For these things were done that the scripture should be fulfilled, »Not one of his bones shall be broken.«

tcent@John:19:38 @ After this Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him permission. So he came and took away his body.

tcent@John:20:3 @ Peter therefore went out with the other disciple, and they were going toward the tomb.

tcent@John:20:9 @ For as yet they did not know the Scripture, that he must rise from the dead.

tcent@John:20:17 @ Jesus said to her, »Do not hold me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and say to them, »I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’«

tcent@John:20:19 @ On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the doors being shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, »Peace be with you.«

tcent@John:20:23 @ If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.«

tcent@John:21:7 @ Then that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, »It is the Lord!« Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment (for he had removed it), and threw himself into the sea.

tcent@John:21:8 @ But the other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from land, but about a hundred yards off.

tcent@Acts:1:3 @ To these he also presented himself alive after his suffering, by many convincing proofs, appearing to them over a period of forty days and speaking of the things concerning the kingdom of God.

tcent@Acts:1:4 @ And while staying with them, he commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised, »Which,« he said, »you heard of from me;

tcent@Acts:1:5 @ for John baptized with water, but before many days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.«

tcent@Acts:1:7 @ He said to them, »It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has fixed by his own authority.

tcent@Acts:1:16 @ »Brethren, the scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke beforehand by the mouth of David, concerning Judas who was guide to those who arrested Jesus.

tcent@Acts:1:23 @ So they put forward two men, Joseph called Barsabbas (who was also called Justus), and Matthias.

tcent@Acts:1:26 @ And they cast lots for them, and the lot fell to Matthias; and he was added to the eleven apostles.

tcent@Acts:2:23 @ this man, delivered over by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God, you nailed to a cross by the hands of godless men and put him to death.

tcent@Acts:2:24 @ But God raised him up, having loosed the agony of death, because it was impossible for him to be held in its power.

tcent@Acts:2:33 @ Being therefore exalted at the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this which you see and hear.

tcent@Acts:2:34 @ For David did not ascend into heaven, but he says himself:

tcent@Acts:4:22 @ For the man on whom this sign of healing was performed was more than forty years old.

tcent@Acts:4:27 @ For truly in this city there were gathered together against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, along with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel,

tcent@Acts:5:21 @ And when they heard this, they entered into the temple about daybreak and began to teach. Now when the high priest and his associates came, they called the Council together, even all the Senate of the sons of Israel, and sent orders to the prison house for them to be brought.

tcent@Acts:5:26 @ Then the captain went along with the officers and brought them back without violence, for they were afraid of the people, that they might be stoned.

tcent@Acts:5:27 @ When they had brought them, they set them before the council. The high priest questioned them,

tcent@Acts:5:34 @ But a Pharisee in the council named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, held in honor by all the people, stood up and ordered the men to be put outside for a while.

tcent@Acts:5:36 @ For some time ago Theudas rose up, claiming to be somebody, and a group of about four hundred men joined him. But he was killed, and all who followed him were dispersed and came to nothing.

tcent@Acts:5:38 @ So in the present case I tell you, keep away from these men and let them alone, for if this plan or action is of men, it will fail;

tcent@Acts:14:26 @ From there they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work which they had completed.

tcent@Acts:15:10 @ Now therefore why do you test God by putting upon the neck of the disciples a yoke which neither our fathers nor we have been able to bear?

tcent@Acts:15:14 @ Simeon has related how God first showed his concern by taking from the Gentiles a people for his name.

tcent@Acts:15:19 @ Therefore it is my judgment that we should not trouble those who are turning to God from among the Gentiles,

tcent@Acts:15:20 @ but that we should write to them to abstain from the pollutions of idols and from fornication and from what is strangled and from blood.

tcent@Acts:16:3 @ Paul wanted this man to accompany him; and he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those places, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.

tcent@Acts:16:4 @ As they went on their way through the cities, they delivered to them for observance the decisions which had been reached by the apostles and elders who were in Jerusalem.

tcent@Acts:16:6 @ And they went through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia.

tcent@Acts:16:16 @ It happened that as we were going to the place of prayer, we were met by a slave-girl who had a spirit of divination. She brought her owners much profit by fortune-telling.

tcent@Acts:16:18 @ She continued doing this for many days. But Paul was greatly annoyed, and turned and said to the spirit, »I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her!« And it came out at that very moment.

tcent@Acts:17:2 @ And Paul went in, as was his custom, and for three weeks he reasoned with them from the scriptures,

tcent@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews were jealous, and taking some wicked men from the market place, they formed a mob and set the city in an uproar; they attacked the house of Jason, seeking to bring them out to the people.

tcent@Acts:17:6 @ When they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some of the brethren before the city authorities, shouting, »These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also,

tcent@Acts:17:15 @ Now those who escorted Paul brought him as far as Athens; and receiving a command for Silas and Timothy to come to him as soon as possible, they left.

tcent@Acts:18:28 @ for he powerfully refuted the Jews in public, proving by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.

tcent@Acts:19:8 @ And he entered the synagogue and for three months spoke boldly, arguing and persuading about the kingdom of God.

tcent@Acts:19:9 @ But when some were stubborn and disbelieved, speaking evil of the Way before the congregation, he withdrew from them, and took the disciples with him, reasoning daily in the hall of Tyrannus.

tcent@Acts:19:34 @ But when they recognized that he was a Jew, for about two hours they all with one voice shouted, »Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!«

tcent@Acts:21:4 @ And having sought out the disciples, we stayed there for seven days. Through the Spirit they told Paul not to go on to Jerusalem.

tcent@Acts:21:7 @ When we had finished the voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais; and we greeted the brethren and stayed with them for a day.

tcent@Acts:21:10 @ As we were staying there for some days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.

tcent@Acts:22:21 @ And he said to me, ‘Go; for I will send you far away to the Gentiles.’«

tcent@Acts:22:22 @ Up to this word they listened to him, and then they raised their voices and said, »Away with such a fellow from the earth! For he ought not to live.«

tcent@Acts:22:25 @ But when they stretched him out with thongs, Paul said to the centurion who was standing by, »Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman citizen and uncondemned?«

tcent@Acts:22:26 @ When the centurion heard this, he went to the commander and told him, saying, »What are you about to do? For this man is a Roman citizen.«

tcent@Acts:22:28 @ The commander answered, »I bought this citizenship for a large sum.« Paul said, »But I was born a citizen.«

tcent@Acts:22:30 @ But on the next day, wishing to know for certain why he had been accused by the Jews, he released him and ordered the chief priests and all the Council to assemble, and brought Paul down and set him before them.

tcent@Acts:23:1 @ And Paul, looking intently at the council, said, »Brethren, I have lived my life before God in all good conscience up to this day.«

tcent@Acts:23:5 @ And Paul said, »I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest; for it is written, ‘You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.’«

tcent@Acts:23:10 @ The dispute became so violent that the commander was afraid Paul would be torn to pieces by them and ordered the troops to go down and take him away from them by force, and bring him into the barracks.

tcent@Acts:23:11 @ The following night the Lord stood by him and said, »Take courage, for as you have testified about me at Jerusalem, so you must bear witness also at Rome.«

tcent@Acts:23:12 @ When it was day, the Jews formed a conspiracy and bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink until they had killed Paul.

tcent@Acts:23:13 @ There were more than forty who formed this plot.

tcent@Acts:23:15 @ You therefore, along with the council, give notice now to the commander to bring him down to you, as though you were going to determine his case more exactly. And we are ready to kill him before he comes near.«

tcent@Acts:23:17 @ Paul called one of the centurions and said, »Take this young man to the commander; for he has something to tell him.«

tcent@Acts:23:30 @ And when I was informed that there would be a plot against the man, I sent him to you at once, also instructing his accusers to bring charges against him before you.«

tcent@Acts:24:1 @ After five days the high priest Ananias came down with some elders, with an attorney named Tertullus, and they brought their charges against Paul before the governor.

tcent@Acts:24:2 @ And when Paul was called, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying to Felix: »Since through you we have enjoyed much peace, and since by your provision, reforms are introduced on behalf of this nation,

tcent@Acts:24:10 @ When the governor had motioned for him to speak, Paul replied: »Realizing that for many years you have been a judge over this nation, I cheerfully make my defense.

tcent@Acts:26:2 @ »I consider myself fortunate that it is before you, King Agrippa, I am to make my defense today against all the accusations of the Jews,

tcent@Acts:26:5 @ They have known about me for a long time, if they are willing to testify, that I lived as a Pharisee according to the strictest sect of our religion.

tcent@Romans:2:1 @ Therefore you have no excuse, O man, whoever you are who judge another; for in whatever point you pass judgment on him you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things.

tcent@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you presume upon the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not know that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?

tcent@Romans:2:5 @ But by your hardness and your impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed.

tcent@Romans:2:6 @ For he »will render to each one according to his works«:

tcent@Romans:2:7 @ to those who by patience in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality, he will give eternal life;

tcent@Romans:2:8 @ but for those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey wickedness, there will be wrath and fury.

tcent@Romans:2:9 @ There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek,

tcent@Romans:2:10 @ but glory, honor, and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek.

tcent@Romans:2:11 @ For God shows no partiality.

tcent@Romans:2:13 @ For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous in the sight of God, but the doers of the law who will be justified.

tcent@Romans:2:24 @ For, as it is written, »The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.«

tcent@Romans:2:28 @ For he is not a real Jew who is one outwardly, nor is true circumcision something outward and in the flesh.

tcent@Romans:3:6 @ Certainly not! For then how could God judge the world?

tcent@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Are we Jews any better off? Certainly not; for we have already charged that all men, both Jews and Greeks, are under the power of sin.

tcent@Romans:3:20 @ Therefore no flesh will be justified in his sight by works of the law, for through the law comes knowledge of sin.

tcent@Romans:3:22 @ the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. For there is no difference,

tcent@Romans:3:23 @ for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

tcent@Romans:3:25 @ whom God put forward as an atoning sacrifice by his blood, to be received through faith. This was to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over sins committed beforehand;

tcent@Romans:3:28 @ For we hold that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the law.

tcent@Romans:4:1 @ What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, has found?

tcent@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God.

tcent@Romans:4:3 @ For what does the scripture say? »Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness.«

tcent@Romans:4:9 @ Is this blessedness only upon the circumcised, or also upon the uncircumcised? For we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham as righteousness.

tcent@Romans:4:10 @ How then was it reckoned to him? Was it after he had been circumcised, or before? It was not after, but before he was circumcised.

tcent@Romans:4:12 @ And he is also the father of the circumcised who are not only circumcised but who also walk in the footsteps of the faith which our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.

tcent@Romans:4:14 @ For if those who are of the law are to be the heirs, faith has no value and the promise is void,

tcent@Romans:4:15 @ because the law brings wrath, for where there is no law there is no transgression.

tcent@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all his descendants—not only to those who are of the law but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, for he is the father of us all

tcent@Romans:4:23 @ But the words, »it was reckoned to him,« were written not for his sake alone,

tcent@Romans:4:24 @ but for us also. It will be reckoned to us who believe in him who raised from the dead Jesus our Lord,

tcent@Romans:4:25 @ who was delivered to death for our sins and was raised for our justification.

tcent@Romans:5:1 @ Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

tcent@Romans:5:6 @ When we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.

tcent@Romans:5:7 @ Why, one will hardly die for a righteous man—though perhaps for a good man one will dare even to die.

tcent@Romans:5:8 @ But God demonstrates his own love for us, in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us.

tcent@Romans:5:9 @ Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved through him from the wrath of God.

tcent@Romans:5:10 @ For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

tcent@Romans:5:12 @ Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, so death spread to all men, because all men sinned.

tcent@Romans:5:13 @ For sin was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted when there is no law.

tcent@Romans:5:15 @ But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if by the one man's trespass many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.

tcent@Romans:5:16 @ And the free gift is not like the effect of that one man's sin. For the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the gift following many trespasses brings justification.

tcent@Romans:5:17 @ For if, by the one man's trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.)

tcent@Romans:5:18 @ So then, as one man's trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one man’s act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all men.

tcent@Romans:5:19 @ For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.

tcent@Romans:6:4 @ We were buried therefore with him through baptism into death, so that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.

tcent@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his.

tcent@Romans:6:7 @ For he who has died has been freed from sin.

tcent@Romans:6:9 @ For we know that Christ, being raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him.

tcent@Romans:6:10 @ The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.

tcent@Romans:6:12 @ Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you obey its passions.

tcent@Romans:6:14 @ For sin shall not have dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace.

tcent@Romans:6:19 @ I am speaking in human terms, because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you once yielded your members to impurity and to greater and greater iniquity, so now yield your members to righteousness for holiness.

tcent@Romans:6:23 @ For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

tcent@Romans:7:1 @ Do you not know, brethren—for I am speaking to those who know the law—that the law has authority over a man only as long as he lives?

tcent@Romans:7:2 @ For a married woman is bound by law to her husband as long as he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of her husband.

tcent@Romans:7:5 @ While we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death.

tcent@Romans:7:7 @ What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed, I would not have known what sin was except through the law. For I would not have known what coveting really was if the law had not said, »You shall not covet.«

tcent@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, finding opportunity by the commandment, produced in me all kinds of covetous desire. For apart from the law sin lies dead.

tcent@Romans:7:11 @ For sin, finding opportunity in the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me.

tcent@Romans:7:15 @ I do not understand what I do. For I do not do what I want to do, but I do what I hate.

tcent@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that nothing good dwells within me, that is, in my flesh. I can will to do what is good, but I cannot do it.

tcent@Romans:7:19 @ For I do not do the good I want to do; but the evil I do not want to do is what I do.

tcent@Romans:7:22 @ For I delight in the law of God, in my inner being,

tcent@Romans:8:1 @ There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

tcent@Romans:8:2 @ For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death.

tcent@Romans:8:3 @ For what the law could not do, in that it was weakened through the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin: he condemned sin in the flesh,

tcent@Romans:8:5 @ For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.

tcent@Romans:8:7 @ For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's law, nor can it do so;

tcent@Romans:8:12 @ Therefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

tcent@Romans:8:13 @ For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

tcent@Romans:8:14 @ For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.

tcent@Romans:8:15 @ For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship by whom we cry out, »Abba, Father.«

tcent@Romans:8:19 @ For the creation waits with eager expectation for the revealing of the sons of God.

tcent@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will, but by the will of him who subjected it in hope;

tcent@Romans:8:23 @ And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

tcent@Romans:8:24 @ For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees?

tcent@Romans:8:25 @ But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.

tcent@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express.

tcent@Romans:8:27 @ And he who searches the hearts of men knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

tcent@Romans:8:28 @ And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who are called according to his purpose.

tcent@Romans:8:29 @ For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

tcent@Romans:8:31 @ What then shall we say to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

tcent@Romans:8:32 @ He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all, how will he not also give us all things with him?

tcent@Romans:8:34 @ Who is he who condemns? It is Christ Jesus, who died, yes, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who is also interceding for us.

tcent@Romans:8:38 @ For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers,

tcent@Romans:9:3 @ For I could wish that I myself were accursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh.

tcent@Romans:9:5 @ Of them are the patriarchs, and from them, according to the flesh, is the Christ, who is God over all, forever blessed. Amen.

tcent@Romans:9:6 @ But it is not as though the word of God had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel are Israel,

tcent@Romans:9:9 @ For this is what the promise said: »About this time I will return and Sarah shall have a son.«

tcent@Romans:9:15 @ For he says to Moses,

tcent@Romans:9:17 @ For the scripture says to Pharaoh, »I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I may show my power in you, and that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth.«

tcent@Romans:9:18 @ Therefore he has mercy on whom he wills, and he hardens the heart of whom he wills.

tcent@Romans:9:19 @ You will say to me then, »Why does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?«

tcent@Romans:9:20 @ But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Will what is formed say to him who formed it, »Why have you made me like this?«

tcent@Romans:9:21 @ Does not the potter have right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?

tcent@Romans:9:22 @ What if God, choosing to show his wrath and to make his power known, endured with much patience the vessels of wrath prepared for destruction,

tcent@Romans:9:23 @ in order to make known the riches of his glory for the vessels of mercy, which he has prepared beforehand for glory,
