rsv@Genesis:1:1 @ In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

rsv@Genesis:1:6 @ And God said, "Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters."

rsv@Genesis:1:11 @ And God said, "Let the earth put forth vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind, upon the earth." And it was so.

rsv@Genesis:1:12 @ The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed according to their own kinds, and trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

rsv@Genesis:1:14 @ And God said, "Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to separate the day from the night; and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years,

rsv@Genesis:1:15 @ and let them be lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light upon the earth." And it was so.

rsv@Genesis:1:17 @ And God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light upon the earth,

rsv@Genesis:1:22 @ And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth."

rsv@Genesis:1:26 @ Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth."

rsv@Genesis:1:27 @ So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

rsv@Genesis:1:29 @ And God said, "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit; you shall have them for food.

rsv@Genesis:2:3 @ So God blessed the seventh day and hallowed it, because on it God rested from all his work which he had done in creation.

rsv@Genesis:2:4 @...they were created. In the...

rsv@Genesis:2:5 @ when no plant of the field was yet in the earth and no herb of the field had yet sprung up--for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was no man to till the ground;

rsv@Genesis:2:8 @ And the LORD God planted a garden in Eden, in the east; and there he put the man whom he had formed.

rsv@Genesis:2:9 @ And out of the ground the LORD God made to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food, the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

rsv@Genesis:2:15 @ The LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to till it and keep it.

rsv@Genesis:2:17 @ but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall die."

rsv@Genesis:3:3 @ but God said, `You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.'"

rsv@Genesis:3:8 @ And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.

rsv@Genesis:3:10 @ And he said, "I heard the sound of thee in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself."

rsv@Genesis:3:16 @ To the woman he said, "I will greatly multiply your pain in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children, yet your desire shall be for your husband, and he shall rule over you."

rsv@Genesis:3:17 @ And to Adam he said, "Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten of the tree of which I commanded you, `You shall not eat of it,' cursed is the ground because of you; in toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life;

rsv@Genesis:3:19 @ In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; you are dust, and to dust you shall return."

rsv@Genesis:4:3 @ In the course of time Cain brought to the LORD an offering of the fruit of the ground,

rsv@Genesis:4:8 @ Cain said to Abel his brother, "Let us go out to the field." And when they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel, and killed him.

rsv@Genesis:4:16 @ Then Cain went away from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, east of Eden.

rsv@Genesis:4:20 @ Adah bore Jabal; he was the father of those who dwell in tents and have cattle.

rsv@Genesis:5:1 @ This is the book of the generations of Adam. When God created man, he made him in the likeness of God.

rsv@Genesis:5:3 @ When Adam had lived a hundred and thirty years, he became the father of a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth.

rsv@Genesis:6:3 @ Then the LORD said, "My spirit shall not abide in man for ever, for he is flesh, but his days shall be a hundred and twenty years."

rsv@Genesis:6:4 @ The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. These were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown.

rsv@Genesis:6:5 @ The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

rsv@Genesis:6:8 @ But Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD.

rsv@Genesis:6:9 @ These are the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation; Noah walked with God.

rsv@Genesis:6:11 @ Now the earth was corrupt in God's sight, and the earth was filled with violence.

rsv@Genesis:6:14 @ Make yourself an ark of gopher wood; make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and out with pitch.

rsv@Genesis:6:16 @ Make a roof for the ark, and finish it to a cubit above; and set the door of the ark in its side; make it with lower, second, and third decks.

rsv@Genesis:6:17 @ For behold, I will bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life from under heaven; everything that is on the earth shall die.

rsv@Genesis:6:20 @ Of the birds according to their kinds, and of the animals according to their kinds, of every creeping thing of the ground according to its kind, two of every sort shall come in to you, to keep them alive.

rsv@Genesis:7:1 @ Then the LORD said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and all your household, for I have seen that you are righteous before me in this generation.

rsv@Genesis:7:4 @ For in seven days I will send rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living thing that I have made I will blot out from the face of the ground."

rsv@Genesis:7:11 @ In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep burst forth, and the windows of the heavens were opened.

rsv@Genesis:7:15 @ They went into the ark with Noah, two and two of all flesh in which there was the breath of life.

rsv@Genesis:7:16 @ And they that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in as God had commanded him; and the LORD shut him in.

rsv@Genesis:7:22 @ everything on the dry land in whose nostrils was the breath of life died.

rsv@Genesis:7:23 @ He blotted out every living thing that was upon the face of the ground, man and animals and creeping things and birds of the air; they were blotted out from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those that were with him in the ark.

rsv@Genesis:8:1 @ But God remembered Noah and all the beasts and all the cattle that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind blow over the earth, and the waters subsided;

rsv@Genesis:8:4 @ and in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark came to rest upon the mountains of Ar'arat.

rsv@Genesis:8:5 @ And the waters continued to abate until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

rsv@Genesis:8:11 @ and the dove came back to him in the evening, and lo, in her mouth a freshly plucked olive leaf; so Noah knew that the waters had subsided from the earth.

rsv@Genesis:8:13 @ In the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried from off the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and behold, the face of the ground was dry.

rsv@Genesis:8:14 @ In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.

rsv@Genesis:8:21 @ And when the LORD smelled the pleasing odor, the LORD said in his heart, "I will never again curse the ground because of man, for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I ever again destroy every living creature as I have done.

rsv@Genesis:9:6 @ Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed; for God made man in his own image.

rsv@Genesis:9:7 @ And you, be fruitful and multiply, bring forth abundantly on the earth and multiply in it."

rsv@Genesis:9:13 @ I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth.

rsv@Genesis:9:14 @ When I bring clouds over the earth and the bow is seen in the clouds,

rsv@Genesis:9:16 @ When the bow is in the clouds, I will look upon it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth."

rsv@Genesis:9:21 @ and he drank of the wine, and became drunk, and lay uncovered in his tent.

rsv@Genesis:9:27 @ God enlarge Japheth, and let him dwell in the tents of Shem; and let Canaan be his slave."

rsv@Genesis:10:5 @ From these the coastland peoples spread. These are the sons of Japheth in their lands, each with his own language, by their families, in their nations.

rsv@Genesis:10:10 @ The beginning of his kingdom was Ba'bel, Erech, and Accad, all of them in the land of Shinar.

rsv@Genesis:10:19 @ And the territory of the Canaanites extended from Sidon, in the direction of Gerar, as far as Gaza, and in the direction of Sodom, Gomor'rah, Admah, and Zeboi'im, as far as Lasha.

rsv@Genesis:10:25 @ To Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided, and his brother's name was Joktan.

rsv@Genesis:10:30 @ The territory in which they lived extended from Mesha in the direction of Sephar to the hill country of the east.

rsv@Genesis:10:32 @ These are the families of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, in their nations; and from these the nations spread abroad on the earth after the flood.

rsv@Genesis:11:2 @ And as men migrated from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there.

rsv@Genesis:11:4 @ Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth."

rsv@Genesis:11:28 @ Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chalde'ans.

rsv@Genesis:11:32 @ The days of Terah were two hundred and five years; and Terah died in Haran.

rsv@Genesis:12:5 @ And Abram took Sar'ai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their possessions which they had gathered, and the persons that they had gotten in Haran; and they set forth to go to the land of Canaan. When they had come to the land of Canaan,

rsv@Genesis:12:6 @ Abram passed through the land to the place at Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. At that time the Canaanites were in the land.

rsv@Genesis:12:10 @ Now there was a famine in the land. So Abram went down to Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine was severe in the land.

rsv@Genesis:13:2 @ Now Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.

rsv@Genesis:13:7 @ and there was strife between the herdsmen of Abram's cattle and the herdsmen of Lot's cattle. At that time the Canaanites and the Per'izzites dwelt in the land.

rsv@Genesis:13:10 @ And Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw that the Jordan valley was well watered everywhere like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, in the direction of Zo'ar; this was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomor'rah.

rsv@Genesis:13:12 @ Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan, while Lot dwelt among the cities of the valley and moved his tent as far as Sodom.

rsv@Genesis:14:1 @ In the days of Am'raphel king of Shinar, Ar'ioch king of Ella'sar, Ched-or-lao'mer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goi'im,

rsv@Genesis:14:3 @ And all these joined forces in the Valley of Siddim (that is, the Salt Sea).

rsv@Genesis:14:4 @ Twelve years they had served Ched-or-lao'mer, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled.

rsv@Genesis:14:5 @ In the fourteenth year Ched-or-lao'mer and the kings who were with him came and subdued the Reph'aim in Ash'teroth-karna'im, the Zuzim in Ham, the Emim in Sha'veh-kiriatha'im,

rsv@Genesis:14:6 @ and the Horites in their Mount Se'ir as far as El-paran on the border of the wilderness;

rsv@Genesis:14:7 @ then they turned back and came to Enmish'pat (that is, Kadesh), and subdued all the country of the Amal'ekites, and also the Amorites who dwelt in Haz'azon-ta'mar.

rsv@Genesis:14:8 @ Then the king of Sodom, the king of Gomor'rah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboi'im, and the king of Bela (that is, Zo'ar) went out, and they joined battle in the Valley of Siddim

rsv@Genesis:14:12 @ they also took Lot, the son of Abram's brother, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.

rsv@Genesis:14:14 @ When Abram heard that his kinsman had been taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, three hundred and eighteen of them, and went in pursuit as far as Daniel.

rsv@Genesis:15:1 @ After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, "Fear not, Abram, I am your shield; your reward shall be very great."

rsv@Genesis:15:3 @ And Abram said, "Behold, thou hast given me no offspring; and a slave born in my house will be my heir."

rsv@Genesis:15:10 @ And he brought him all these, cut them in two, and laid each half over against the other; but he did not cut the birds in two.

rsv@Genesis:15:13 @ Then the LORD said to Abram, "Know of a surety that your descendants will be sojourners in a land that is not theirs, and will be slaves there, and they will be oppressed for four hundred years;

rsv@Genesis:15:15 @ As for yourself, you shall go to your fathers in peace; you shall be buried in a good old age.

rsv@Genesis:15:16 @ And they shall come back here in the fourth generation; for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete."

rsv@Genesis:16:2 @ and Sar'ai said to Abram, "Behold now, the LORD has prevented me from bearing children; go in to my maid; it may be that I shall obtain children by her." And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sar'ai.

rsv@Genesis:16:3 @ So, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, Sar'ai, Abram's wife, took Hagar the Egyptian, her maid, and gave her to Abram her husband as a wife.

rsv@Genesis:16:4 @ And he went in to Hagar, and she conceived; and when she saw that she had conceived, she looked with contempt on her mistress.

rsv@Genesis:16:6 @ But Abram said to Sar'ai, "Behold, your maid is in your power; do to her as you please." Then Sar'ai dealt harshly with her, and she fled from her.

rsv@Genesis:16:7 @ The angel of the LORD found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, the spring on the way to Shur.

rsv@Genesis:17:11 @ You shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskins, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between me and you.

rsv@Genesis:17:12 @ He that is eight days old among you shall be circumcised; every male throughout your generations, whether born in your house, or bought with your money from any foreigner who is not of your offspring,

rsv@Genesis:17:13 @ both he that is born in your house and he that is bought with your money, shall be circumcised. So shall my covenant be in your flesh an everlasting covenant.

rsv@Genesis:17:14 @ Any uncircumcised male who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin shall be cut off from his people; he has broken my covenant."

rsv@Genesis:17:18 @ And Abraham said to God, "O that Ish'mael might live in thy sight!"

rsv@Genesis:17:23 @ Then Abraham took Ish'mael his son and all the slaves born in his house or bought with his money, every male among the men of Abraham's house, and he circumcised the flesh of their foreskins that very day, as God had said to him.

rsv@Genesis:17:24 @ Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

rsv@Genesis:17:25 @ And Ish'mael his son was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

rsv@Genesis:17:27 @ and all the men of his house, those born in the house and those bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him.

rsv@Genesis:18:1 @ And the LORD appeared to him by the oaks of Mamre, as he sat at the door of his tent in the heat of the day.

rsv@Genesis:18:2 @ He lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, three men stood in front of him. When he saw them, he ran from the tent door to meet them, and bowed himself to the earth,

rsv@Genesis:18:3 @ and said, "My lord, if I have found favor in your sight, do not pass by your servant.

rsv@Genesis:18:9 @ They said to him, "Where is Sarah your wife?" And he said, "She is in the tent."

rsv@Genesis:18:10 @ The LORD said, "I will surely return to you in the spring, and Sarah your wife shall have a son." And Sarah was listening at the tent door behind him.

rsv@Genesis:18:11 @ Now Abraham and Sarah were old, advanced in age; it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.

rsv@Genesis:18:14 @ Is anything too hard for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you, in the spring, and Sarah shall have a son."

rsv@Genesis:18:24 @ Suppose there are fifty righteous within the city; wilt thou then destroy the place and not spare it for the fifty righteous who are in it?

rsv@Genesis:18:26 @ And the LORD said, "If I find at Sodom fifty righteous in the city, I will spare the whole place for their sake."

rsv@Genesis:19:1 @ The two angels came to Sodom in the evening; and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he rose to meet them, and bowed himself with his face to the earth,

rsv@Genesis:19:2 @ and said, "My lords, turn aside, I pray you, to your servant's house and spend the night, and wash your feet; then you may rise up early and go on your way." They said, "No; we will spend the night in the street."

rsv@Genesis:19:12 @ Then the men said to Lot, "Have you any one else here? Sons-in-law, sons, daughters, or any one you have in the city, bring them out of the place;

rsv@Genesis:19:15 @ When morning dawned, the angels urged Lot, saying, "Arise, take your wife and your two daughters who are here, lest you be consumed in the punishment of the city."

rsv@Genesis:19:17 @ And when they had brought them forth, they said, "Flee for your life; do not look back or stop anywhere in the valley; flee to the hills, lest you be consumed."

rsv@Genesis:19:19 @ behold, your servant has found favor in your sight, and you have shown me great kindness in saving my life; but I cannot flee to the hills, lest the disaster overtake me, and I die.

rsv@Genesis:19:27 @ And Abraham went early in the morning to the place where he had stood before the LORD;

rsv@Genesis:19:29 @ So it was that, when God destroyed the cities of the valley, God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot dwelt.

rsv@Genesis:19:30 @ Now Lot went up out of Zo'ar, and dwelt in the hills with his two daughters, for he was afraid to dwell in Zo'ar; so he dwelt in a cave with his two daughters.

rsv@Genesis:19:31 @ And the first-born said to the younger, "Our father is old, and there is not a man on earth to come in to us after the manner of all the earth.

rsv@Genesis:19:34 @ And on the next day, the first-born said to the younger, "Behold, I lay last night with my father; let us make him drink wine tonight also; then you go in and lie with him, that we may preserve offspring through our father."

rsv@Genesis:20:1 @ From there Abraham journeyed toward the territory of the Negeb, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur; and he sojourned in Gerar.

rsv@Genesis:20:3 @ But God came to Abim'elech in a dream by night, and said to him, "Behold, you are a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken; for she is a man's wife."

rsv@Genesis:20:5 @ Did he not himself say to me, `She is my sister'? And she herself said, `He is my brother.' In the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands I have done this."

rsv@Genesis:20:6 @ Then God said to him in the dream, "Yes, I know that you have done this in the integrity of your heart, and it was I who kept you from sinning against me; therefore I did not let you touch her.

rsv@Genesis:20:8 @ So Abim'elech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and told them all these things; and the men were very much afraid.

rsv@Genesis:20:11 @ Abraham said, "I did it because I thought, There is no fear of God at all in this place, and they will kill me because of my wife.

rsv@Genesis:20:16 @ To Sarah he said, "Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver; it is your vindication in the eyes of all who are with you; and before every one you are righted."

rsv@Genesis:21:2 @ And Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age at the time of which God had spoken to him.

rsv@Genesis:21:7 @ And she said, "Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would suckle children? Yet I have borne him a son in his old age."

rsv@Genesis:21:14 @ So Abraham rose early in the morning, and took bread and a skin of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, along with the child, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.

rsv@Genesis:21:15 @ When the water in the skin was gone, she cast the child under one of the bushes.

rsv@Genesis:21:20 @ And God was with the lad, and he grew up; he lived in the wilderness, and became an expert with the bow.

rsv@Genesis:21:21 @ He lived in the wilderness of Paran; and his mother took a wife for him from the land of Egypt.

rsv@Genesis:21:22 @ At that time Abim'elech and Phicol the commander of his army said to Abraham, "God is with you in all that you do;

rsv@Genesis:21:33 @ Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beer-sheba, and called there on the name of the LORD, the Everlasting God.

rsv@Genesis:21:34 @ And Abraham sojourned many days in the land of the Philistines.

rsv@Genesis:22:3 @ So Abraham rose early in the morning, saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and his son Isaac; and he cut the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him.

rsv@Genesis:22:6 @ And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So they went both of them together.

rsv@Genesis:22:9 @ When they came to the place of which God had told him, Abraham built an altar there, and laid the wood in order, and bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, upon the wood.

rsv@Genesis:22:13 @ And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns; and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son.

rsv@Genesis:23:2 @ And Sarah died at Kir'iath-ar'ba (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan; and Abraham went in to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her.

rsv@Genesis:23:6 @ "Hear us, my lord; you are a mighty prince among us. Bury your dead in the choicest of our sepulchres; none of us will withhold from you his sepulchre, or hinder you from burying your dead."

rsv@Genesis:23:9 @ that he may give me the cave of Mach-pe'lah, which he owns; it is at the end of his field. For the full price let him give it to me in your presence as a possession for a burying place."

rsv@Genesis:23:10 @ Now Ephron was sitting among the Hittites; and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the hearing of the Hittites, of all who went in at the gate of his city,

rsv@Genesis:23:11 @ "No, my lord, hear me; I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it; in the presence of the sons of my people I give it to you; bury your dead."

rsv@Genesis:23:13 @ And he said to Ephron in the hearing of the people of the land, "But if you will, hear me; I will give the price of the field; accept it from me, that I may bury my dead there."

rsv@Genesis:23:16 @ Abraham agreed with Ephron; and Abraham weighed out for Ephron the silver which he had named in the hearing of the Hittites, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the weights current among the merchants.

rsv@Genesis:23:17 @ So the field of Ephron in Mach-pe'lah, which was to the east of Mamre, the field with the cave which was in it and all the trees that were in the field, throughout its whole area, was made over

rsv@Genesis:23:18 @ to Abraham as a possession in the presence of the Hittites, before all who went in at the gate of his city.

rsv@Genesis:23:19 @ After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Mach-pe'lah east of Mamre (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan.

rsv@Genesis:23:20 @ The field and the cave that is in it were made over to Abraham as a possession for a burying place by the Hittites.

rsv@Genesis:24:1 @ Now Abraham was old, well advanced in years; and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.

rsv@Genesis:24:21 @ The man gazed at her in silence to learn whether the LORD had prospered his journey or not.

rsv@Genesis:24:23 @ and said, "Tell me whose daughter you are. Is there room in your father's house for us to lodge in?"

rsv@Genesis:24:27 @ and said, "Blessed be the LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken his steadfast love and his faithfulness toward my master. As for me, the LORD has led me in the way to the house of my master's kinsmen."

rsv@Genesis:24:37 @ My master made me swear, saying, `You shall not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell;

rsv@Genesis:24:45 @ "Before I had done speaking in my heart, behold, Rebekah came out with her water jar on her shoulder; and she went down to the spring, and drew. I said to her, `Pray let me drink.'

rsv@Genesis:24:54 @ And he and the men who were with him ate and drank, and they spent the night there. When they arose in the morning, he said, "Send me back to my master."

rsv@Genesis:24:62 @ Now Isaac had come from Beer-la'hai-roi, and was dwelling in the Negeb.

rsv@Genesis:24:63 @ And Isaac went out to meditate in the field in the evening; and he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, there were camels coming.

rsv@Genesis:24:65 @ and said to the servant, "Who is the man yonder, walking in the field to meet us?" The servant said, "It is my master." So she took her veil and covered herself.

rsv@Genesis:25:8 @ Abraham breathed his last and died in a good old age, an old man and full of years, and was gathered to his people.

rsv@Genesis:25:9 @ Isaac and Ish'mael his sons buried him in the cave of Mach-pe'lah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, east of Mamre,

rsv@Genesis:25:13 @ These are the names of the sons of Ish'mael, named in the order of their birth: Neba'ioth, the first-born of Ish'mael; and Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

rsv@Genesis:25:18 @ They dwelt from Hav'ilah to Shur, which is opposite Egypt in the direction of Assyria; he settled over against all his people.

rsv@Genesis:25:23 @ And the LORD said to her, "Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples, born of you, shall be divided; the one shall be stronger than the other, the elder shall serve the younger."

rsv@Genesis:25:27 @ When the boys grew up, Esau was a skilful hunter, a man of the field, while Jacob was a quiet man, dwelling in tents.

rsv@Genesis:25:29 @ Once when Jacob was boiling pottage, Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.

rsv@Genesis:26:1 @ Now there was a famine in the land, besides the former famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Gerar, to Abim'elech king of the Philistines.

rsv@Genesis:26:2 @ And the LORD appeared to him, and said, "Do not go down to Egypt; dwell in the land of which I shall tell you.

rsv@Genesis:26:3 @ Sojourn in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you; for to you and to your descendants I will give all these lands, and I will fulfil the oath which I swore to Abraham your father.

rsv@Genesis:26:6 @ So Isaac dwelt in Gerar.

rsv@Genesis:26:12 @ And Isaac sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year a hundredfold. The LORD blessed him,

rsv@Genesis:26:15 @ (Now the Philistines had stopped and filled with earth all the wells which his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father.)

rsv@Genesis:26:17 @ So Isaac departed from there, and encamped in the valley of Gerar and dwelt there.

rsv@Genesis:26:18 @ And Isaac dug again the wells of water which had been dug in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham; and he gave them the names which his father had given them.

rsv@Genesis:26:19 @ But when Isaac's servants dug in the valley and found there a well of springing water,

rsv@Genesis:26:22 @ And he moved from there and dug another well, and over that they did not quarrel; so he called its name Reho'both, saying, "For now the LORD has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land."

rsv@Genesis:26:29 @ that you will do us no harm, just as we have not touched you and have done to you nothing but good and have sent you away in peace. You are now the blessed of the LORD."

rsv@Genesis:26:31 @ In the morning they rose early and took oath with one another; and Isaac set them on their way, and they departed from him in peace.

rsv@Genesis:27:30 @ As soon as Isaac had finished blessing Jacob, when Jacob had scarcely gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, Esau his brother came in from his hunting.

rsv@Genesis:27:43 @ Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; arise, flee to Laban my brother in Haran,

rsv@Genesis:27:45 @ until your brother's anger turns away, and he forgets what you have done to him; then I will send, and fetch you from there. Why should I be bereft of you both in one day?"

rsv@Genesis:28:11 @ And he came to a certain place, and stayed there that night, because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones of the place, he put it under his head and lay down in that place to sleep.

rsv@Genesis:28:16 @ Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, "Surely the LORD is in this place; and I did not know it."

rsv@Genesis:28:18 @ So Jacob rose early in the morning, and he took the stone which he had put under his head and set it up for a pillar and poured oil on the top of it.

rsv@Genesis:28:20 @ Then Jacob made a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat and clothing to wear,

rsv@Genesis:28:21 @ so that I come again to my father's house in peace, then the LORD shall be my God,

rsv@Genesis:29:2 @ As he looked, he saw a well in the field, and lo, three flocks of sheep lying beside it; for out of that well the flocks were watered. The stone on the well's mouth was large,

rsv@Genesis:29:3 @ and when all the flocks were gathered there, the shepherds would roll the stone from the mouth of the well, and water the sheep, and put the stone back in its place upon the mouth of the well.

rsv@Genesis:29:21 @ Then Jacob said to Laban, "Give me my wife that I may go in to her, for my time is completed."

rsv@Genesis:29:23 @ But in the evening he took his daughter Leah and brought her to Jacob; and he went in to her.

rsv@Genesis:29:25 @ And in the morning, behold, it was Leah; and Jacob said to Laban, "What is this you have done to me? Did I not serve with you for Rachel? Why then have you deceived me?"

rsv@Genesis:29:26 @ Laban said, "It is not so done in our country, to give the younger before the first-born.

rsv@Genesis:29:27 @ Complete the week of this one, and we will give you the other also in return for serving me another seven years."

rsv@Genesis:30:3 @ Then she said, "Here is my maid Bilhah; go in to her, that she may bear upon my knees, and even I may have children through her."

rsv@Genesis:30:4 @ So she gave him her maid Bilhah as a wife; and Jacob went in to her.

rsv@Genesis:30:14 @ In the days of wheat harvest Reuben went and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, "Give me, I pray, some of your son's mandrakes."

rsv@Genesis:30:16 @ When Jacob came from the field in the evening, Leah went out to meet him, and said, "You must come in to me; for I have hired you with my son's mandrakes." So he lay with her that night.

rsv@Genesis:30:35 @ But that day Laban removed the he-goats that were striped and spotted, and all the she-goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had white on it, and every lamb that was black, and put them in charge of his sons;

rsv@Genesis:31:14 @ Then Rachel and Leah answered him, "Is there any portion or inheritance left to us in our father's house?

rsv@Genesis:33:18 @ And Jacob came safely to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, on his way from Paddan-aram; and he camped before the city.

rsv@Genesis:34:5 @ Now Jacob heard that he had defiled his daughter Dinah; but his sons were with his cattle in the field, so Jacob held his peace until they came.

rsv@Genesis:34:7 @ The sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard of it; and the men were indignant and very angry, because he had wrought folly in Israel by lying with Jacob's daughter, for such a thing ought not to be done.

rsv@Joshua:8:12 @ And he took about five thousand men, and set them in ambush between Bethel and Ai, to the west of the city.

rsv@Joshua:8:13 @ So they stationed the forces, the main encampment which was north of the city and its rear guard west of the city. But Joshua spent that night in the valley.

rsv@Joshua:8:14 @ And when the king of Ai saw this he and all his people, the men of the city, made haste and went out early to the descent toward the Arabah to meet Israel in battle; but he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.

rsv@Joshua:8:15 @ And Joshua and all Israel made a pretense of being beaten before them, and fled in the direction of the wilderness.

rsv@Joshua:8:16 @ So all the people who were in the city were called together to pursue them, and as they pursued Joshua they were drawn away from the city.

rsv@Joshua:8:17 @ There was not a man left in Ai or Bethel, who did not go out after Israel; they left the city open, and pursued Israel.

rsv@Joshua:8:18 @ Then the LORD said to Joshua, "Stretch out the javelin that is in your hand toward Ai; for I will give it into your hand." And Joshua stretched out the javelin that was in his hand toward the city.

rsv@Joshua:8:22 @ And the others came forth from the city against them; so they were in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side; and Israel smote them, until there was left none that survived or escaped.

rsv@Joshua:8:24 @ When Israel had finished slaughtering all the inhabitants of Ai in the open wilderness where they pursued them and all of them to the very last had fallen by the edge of the sword, all Israel returned to Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sword.

rsv@Joshua:8:30 @ Then Joshua built an altar in Mount Ebal to the LORD, the God of Israel,

rsv@Joshua:8:31 @ as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded the people of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, "an altar of unhewn stones, upon which no man has lifted an iron tool"; and they offered on it burnt offerings to the LORD, and sacrificed peace offerings.

rsv@Joshua:8:32 @ And there, in the presence of the people of Israel, he wrote upon the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he had written.

rsv@Joshua:8:33 @ And all Israel, sojourner as well as homeborn, with their elders and officers and their judges, stood on opposite sides of the ark before the Levitical priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the LORD, half of them in front of Mount Ger'izim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded at the first, that they should bless the people of Israel.

rsv@Joshua:19:9 @ The inheritance of the tribe of Simeon formed part of the territory of Judah; because the portion of the tribe of Judah was too large for them, the tribe of Simeon obtained an inheritance in the midst of their inheritance.

rsv@Judges:19:11 @ When they were near Jebus, the day was far spent, and the servant said to his master, "Come now, let us turn aside to this city of the Jeb'usites, and spend the night in it."

rsv@Judges:19:15 @ and they turned aside there, to go in and spend the night at Gib'e-ah. And he went in and sat down in the open square of the city; for no man took them into his house to spend the night.

rsv@Judges:19:16 @ And behold, an old man was coming from his work in the field at evening; the man was from the hill country of E'phraim, and he was sojourning in Gib'e-ah; the men of the place were Benjaminites.

rsv@Judges:19:17 @ And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the wayfarer in the open square of the city; and the old man said, "Where are you going? and whence do you come?"

rsv@Judges:19:18 @ And he said to him, "We are passing from Bethlehem in Judah to the remote parts of the hill country of E'phraim, from which I come. I went to Bethlehem in Judah; and I am going to my home; and nobody takes me into his house.

rsv@Judges:20:6 @ And I took my concubine and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the country of the inheritance of Israel; for they have committed abomination and wantonness in Israel.

rsv@Judges:20:10 @ and we will take ten men of a hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and a hundred of a thousand, and a thousand of ten thousand, to bring provisions for the people, that when they come they may requite Gib'e-ah of Benjamin, for all the wanton crime which they have committed in Israel."

rsv@Judges:20:13 @ Now therefore give up the men, the base fellows in Gib'e-ah, that we may put them to death, and put away evil from Israel." But the Benjaminites would not listen to the voice of their brethren, the people of Israel.

rsv@Judges:20:19 @ Then the people of Israel rose in the morning, and encamped against Gib'e-ah.

rsv@Judges:20:22 @ But the people, the men of Israel, took courage, and again formed the battle line in the same place where they had formed it on the first day.

rsv@Judges:20:27 @ And the people of Israel inquired of the LORD (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,

rsv@Judges:20:28 @ and Phin'ehas the son of Elea'zar, son of Aaron, ministered before it in those days), saying, "Shall we yet again go out to battle against our brethren the Benjaminites, or shall we cease?" And the LORD said, "Go up; for tomorrow I will give them into your hand."

rsv@Judges:20:29 @ So Israel set men in ambush round about Gib'e-ah.

rsv@Judges:20:30 @ And the people of Israel went up against the Benjaminites on the third day, and set themselves in array against Gib'e-ah, as at other times.

rsv@Judges:20:31 @ And the Benjaminites went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and as at other times they began to smite and kill some of the people, in the highways, one of which goes up to Bethel and the other to Gib'e-ah, and in the open country, about thirty men of Israel.

rsv@Judges:20:33 @ And all the men of Israel rose up out of their place, and set themselves in array at Ba'al-ta'mar; and the men of Israel who were in ambush rushed out of their place west of Geba.

rsv@Judges:20:37 @ And the men in ambush made haste and rushed upon Gib'e-ah; the men in ambush moved out and smote all the city with the edge of the sword.

rsv@Judges:20:45 @ And they turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon; five thousand men of them were cut down in the highways, and they were pursued hard to Gidom, and two thousand men of them were slain.

rsv@Judges:21:1 @ Now the men of Israel had sworn at Mizpah, "No one of us shall give his daughter in marriage to Benjamin."

rsv@Judges:21:3 @ And they said, "O LORD, the God of Israel, why has this come to pass in Israel, that there should be today one tribe lacking in Israel?"

rsv@Judges:21:5 @ And the people of Israel said, "Which of all the tribes of Israel did not come up in the assembly to the LORD?" For they had taken a great oath concerning him who did not come up to the LORD to Mizpah, saying, "He shall be put to death."

rsv@Judges:21:12 @ And they found among the inhabitants of Ja'besh-gil'ead four hundred young virgins who had not known man by lying with him; and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.

rsv@Judges:21:15 @ And the people had compassion on Benjamin because the LORD had made a breach in the tribes of Israel.

rsv@Judges:21:20 @ And they commanded the Benjaminites, saying, "Go and lie in wait in the vineyards,

rsv@Judges:21:21 @ and watch; if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in the dances, then come out of the vineyards and seize each man his wife from the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin.

rsv@Judges:21:23 @ And the Benjaminites did so, and took their wives, according to their number, from the dancers whom they carried off; then they went and returned to their inheritance, and rebuilt the towns, and dwelt in them.

rsv@Judges:21:25 @ In those days there was no king in Israel; every man did what was right in his own eyes.

rsv@Ruth:1:1 @ In the days when the judges ruled there was a famine in the land, and a certain man of Bethlehem in Judah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he and his wife and his two sons.

rsv@Ruth:1:2 @ The name of the man was Elim'elech and the name of his wife Na'omi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Chil'ion; they were Eph'rathites from Bethlehem in Judah. They went into the country of Moab and remained there.

rsv@Ruth:1:9 @ The LORD grant that you may find a home, each of you in the house of her husband!" Then she kissed them, and they lifted up their voices and wept.

rsv@Ruth:1:11 @ But Na'omi said, "Turn back, my daughters, why will you go with me? Have I yet sons in my womb that they may become your husbands?

rsv@Ruth:2:3 @ So she set forth and went and gleaned in the field after the reapers; and she happened to come to the part of the field belonging to Bo'az, who was of the family of Elim'elech.

rsv@Ruth:2:5 @ Then Bo'az said to his servant who was in charge of the reapers, "Whose maiden is this?"

rsv@Ruth:2:6 @ And the servant who was in charge of the reapers answered, "It is the Moabite maiden, who came back with Na'omi from the country of Moab.

rsv@Ruth:2:14 @ And at mealtime Bo'az said to her, "Come here, and eat some bread, and dip your morsel in the wine." So she sat beside the reapers, and he passed to her parched grain; and she ate until she was satisfied, and she had some left over.

rsv@Ruth:2:17 @ So she gleaned in the field until evening; then she beat out what she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barley.

rsv@Ruth:2:22 @ And Na'omi said to Ruth, her daughter-in-law, "It is well, my daughter, that you go out with his maidens, lest in another field you be molested."

rsv@Ruth:4:5 @ Then Bo'az said, "The day you buy the field from the hand of Na'omi, you are also buying Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of the dead, in order to restore the name of the dead to his inheritance."

rsv@Ruth:4:7 @ Now this was the custom in former times in Israel concerning redeeming and exchanging: to confirm a transaction, the one drew off his sandal and gave it to the other, and this was the manner of attesting in Israel.

rsv@Ruth:4:10 @ Also Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of Mahlon, I have bought to be my wife, to perpetuate the name of the dead in his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brethren and from the gate of his native place; you are witnesses this day."

rsv@Ruth:4:11 @ Then all the people who were at the gate, and the elders, said, "We are witnesses. May the LORD make the woman, who is coming into your house, like Rachel and Leah, who together built up the house of Israel. May you prosper in Eph'rathah and be renowned in Bethlehem;

rsv@Ruth:4:13 @ So Bo'az took Ruth and she became his wife; and he went in to her, and the LORD gave her conception, and she bore a son.

rsv@Ruth:4:14 @ Then the women said to Na'omi, "Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you this day without next of kin; and may his name be renowned in Israel!

rsv@Ruth:4:16 @ Then Na'omi took the child and laid him in her bosom, and became his nurse.

rsv@1Samuel:1:13 @ Hannah was speaking in her heart; only her lips moved, and her voice was not heard; therefore Eli took her to be a drunken woman.

rsv@1Samuel:1:18 @ And she said, "Let your maidservant find favor in your eyes." Then the woman went her way and ate, and her countenance was no longer sad.

rsv@1Samuel:1:19 @ They rose early in the morning and worshiped before the LORD; then they went back to their house at Ramah. And Elka'nah knew Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembered her;

rsv@1Samuel:1:20 @ and in due time Hannah conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Samuel, for she said, "I have asked him of the LORD."

rsv@1Samuel:1:22 @ But Hannah did not go up, for she said to her husband, "As soon as the child is weaned, I will bring him, that he may appear in the presence of the LORD, and abide there for ever."

rsv@1Samuel:1:26 @ And she said, "Oh, my lord! As you live, my lord, I am the woman who was standing here in your presence, praying to the LORD.

rsv@1Samuel:2:21 @ And the LORD visited Hannah, and she conceived and bore three sons and two daughters. And the boy Samuel grew in the presence of the LORD.

rsv@1Samuel:2:26 @ Now the boy Samuel continued to grow both in stature and in favor with the LORD and with men.

rsv@1Samuel:2:27 @ And there came a man of God to Eli, and said to him, "Thus the LORD has said, `I revealed myself to the house of your father when they were in Egypt subject to the house of Pharaoh.

rsv@1Samuel:3:1 @ Now the boy Samuel was ministering to the LORD under Eli. And the word of the LORD was rare in those days; there was no frequent vision.

rsv@1Samuel:3:2 @ At that time Eli, whose eyesight had begun to grow dim, so that he could not see, was lying down in his own place;

rsv@1Samuel:3:9 @ Therefore Eli said to Samuel, "Go, lie down; and if he calls you, you shall say, `Speak, LORD, for thy servant hears.'" So Samuel went and lay down in his place.

rsv@1Samuel:15:17 @ And Samuel said, "Though you are little in your own eyes, are you not the head of the tribes of Israel? The LORD anointed you king over Israel.

rsv@1Samuel:15:19 @ Why then did you not obey the voice of the LORD? Why did you swoop on the spoil, and do what was evil in the sight of the LORD?"

rsv@1Samuel:15:21 @ But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the best of the things devoted to destruction, to sacrifice to the LORD your God in Gilgal."

rsv@1Samuel:15:22 @ And Samuel said, "Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

rsv@1Samuel:15:33 @ And Samuel said, "As your sword has made women childless, so shall your mother be childless among women." And Samuel hewed Agag in pieces before the LORD in Gilgal.

rsv@1Samuel:17:30 @ And he turned away from him toward another, and spoke in the same way; and the people answered him again as before.

rsv@1Samuel:17:39 @ And David girded his sword over his armor, and he tried in vain to go, for he was not used to them. Then David said to Saul, "I cannot go with these; for I am not used to them." And David put them off.

rsv@1Samuel:17:40 @ Then he took his staff in his hand, and chose five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in his shepherd's bag or wallet; his sling was in his hand, and he drew near to the Philistine.

rsv@1Samuel:19:1 @ And Saul spoke to Jonathan his son and to all his servants, that they should kill David. But Jonathan, Saul's son, delighted much in David.

rsv@1Samuel:19:2 @ And Jonathan told David, "Saul my father seeks to kill you; therefore take heed to yourself in the morning, stay in a secret place and hide yourself;

rsv@1Samuel:19:3 @ and I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will speak to my father about you; and if I learn anything I will tell you."

rsv@1Samuel:19:5 @ for he took his life in his hand and he slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great victory for all Israel. You saw it, and rejoiced; why then will you sin against innocent blood by killing David without cause?"

rsv@1Samuel:19:7 @ And Jonathan called David, and Jonathan showed him all these things. And Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as before.

rsv@1Samuel:19:9 @ Then an evil spirit from the LORD came upon Saul, as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand; and David was playing the lyre.

rsv@1Samuel:19:11 @ That night Saul sent messengers to David's house to watch him, that he might kill him in the morning. But Michal, David's wife, told him, "If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be killed."

rsv@1Samuel:19:16 @ And when the messengers came in, behold, the image was in the bed, with the pillow of goats' hair at its head.

rsv@1Samuel:19:19 @ And it was told Saul, "Behold, David is at Nai'oth in Ramah."

rsv@1Samuel:19:22 @ Then he himself went to Ramah, and came to the great well that is in Secu; and he asked, "Where are Samuel and David?" And one said, "Behold, they are at Nai'oth in Ramah."

rsv@1Samuel:19:23 @ And he went from there to Nai'oth in Ramah; and the Spirit of God came upon him also, and as he went he prophesied, until he came to Nai'oth in Ramah.

rsv@1Samuel:20:1 @ Then David fled from Nai'oth in Ramah, and came and said before Jonathan, "What have I done? What is my guilt? And what is my sin before your father, that he seeks my life?"

rsv@1Samuel:20:3 @ But David replied, "Your father knows well that I have found favor in your eyes; and he thinks, `Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved.' But truly, as the LORD lives and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death."

rsv@1Samuel:20:5 @ David said to Jonathan, "Behold, tomorrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit at table with the king; but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field till the third day at evening.

rsv@1Samuel:20:8 @ Therefore deal kindly with your servant, for you have brought your servant into a sacred covenant with you. But if there is guilt in me, slay me yourself; for why should you bring me to your father?"

rsv@1Samuel:20:19 @ And on the third day you will be greatly missed; then go to the place where you hid yourself when the matter was in hand, and remain beside yonder stone heap.

rsv@1Samuel:20:24 @ So David hid himself in the field; and when the new moon came, the king sat down to eat food.

rsv@1Samuel:20:29 @ he said, `Let me go; for our family holds a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has commanded me to be there. So now, if I have found favor in your eyes, let me get away, and see my brothers.' For this reason he has not come to the king's table."

rsv@1Samuel:20:34 @ And Jonathan rose from the table in fierce anger and ate no food the second day of the month, for he was grieved for David, because his father had disgraced him.

rsv@1Samuel:20:35 @ In the morning Jonathan went out into the field to the appointment with David, and with him a little lad.

rsv@1Samuel:20:42 @ Then Jonathan said to David, "Go in peace, forasmuch as we have sworn both of us in the name of the LORD, saying, `The LORD shall be between me and you, and between my descendants and your descendants, for ever.'" And he rose and departed; and Jonathan went into the city.

rsv@1Samuel:21:9 @ And the priest said, "The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod; if you will take that, take it, for there is none but that here." And David said, "There is none like that; give it to me."

rsv@1Samuel:21:11 @ And the servants of A'chish said to him, "Is not this David the king of the land? Did they not sing to one another of him in dances, `Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands'?"

rsv@1Samuel:21:13 @ So he changed his behavior before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and made marks on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle run down his beard.

rsv@1Samuel:21:15 @ Do I lack madmen, that you have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence? Shall this fellow come into my house?"

rsv@1Samuel:22:2 @ And every one who was in distress, and every one who was in debt, and every one who was discontented, gathered to him; and he became captain over them. And there were with him about four hundred men.

rsv@1Samuel:22:4 @ And he left them with the king of Moab, and they stayed with him all the time that David was in the stronghold.

rsv@1Samuel:22:5 @ Then the prophet Gad said to David, "Do not remain in the stronghold; depart, and go into the land of Judah." So David departed, and went into the forest of Hereth.

rsv@1Samuel:22:6 @ Now Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men who were with him. Saul was sitting at Gib'e-ah, under the tamarisk tree on the height, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him.

rsv@1Samuel:22:8 @ that all of you have conspired against me? No one discloses to me when my son makes a league with the son of Jesse, none of you is sorry for me or discloses to me that my son has stirred up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as at this day."

rsv@1Samuel:22:13 @ And Saul said to him, "Why have you conspired against me, you and the son of Jesse, in that you have given him bread and a sword, and have inquired of God for him, so that he has risen against me, to lie in wait, as at this day?"

rsv@1Samuel:22:14 @ Then Ahim'elech answered the king, "And who among all your servants is so faithful as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and captain over your bodyguard, and honored in your house?

rsv@1Samuel:22:23 @ Stay with me, fear not; for he that seeks my life seeks your life; with me you shall be in safekeeping."

rsv@1Samuel:23:3 @ But David's men said to him, "Behold, we are afraid here in Judah; how much more then if we go to Kei'lah against the armies of the Philistines?"

rsv@1Samuel:23:6 @ When Abi'athar the son of Ahim'elech fled to David to Kei'lah, he came down with an ephod in his hand.

rsv@1Samuel:23:7 @ Now it was told Saul that David had come to Kei'lah. And Saul said, "God has given him into my hand; for he has shut himself in by entering a town that has gates and bars."

rsv@1Samuel:23:14 @ And David remained in the strongholds in the wilderness, in the hill country of the Wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God did not give him into his hand.

rsv@1Samuel:23:15 @ And David was afraid because Saul had come out to seek his life. David was in the Wilderness of Ziph at Horesh.

rsv@1Samuel:23:16 @ And Jonathan, Saul's son, rose, and went to David at Horesh, and strengthened his hand in God.

rsv@1Samuel:23:19 @ Then the Ziphites went up to Saul at Gib'e-ah, saying, "Does not David hide among us in the strongholds at Horesh, on the hill of Hachi'lah, which is south of Jeshi'mon?

rsv@1Samuel:23:23 @ See therefore, and take note of all the lurking places where he hides, and come back to me with sure information. Then I will go with you; and if he is in the land, I will search him out among all the thousands of Judah."

rsv@1Samuel:23:24 @ And they arose, and went to Ziph ahead of Saul. Now David and his men were in the wilderness of Ma'on, in the Arabah to the south of Jeshi'mon.

rsv@1Samuel:23:25 @ And Saul and his men went to seek him. And David was told; therefore he went down to the rock which is in the wilderness of Ma'on. And when Saul heard that, he pursued after David in the wilderness of Ma'on.

rsv@1Samuel:23:26 @ Saul went on one side of the mountain, and David and his men on the other side of the mountain; and David was making haste to get away from Saul, as Saul and his men were closing in upon David and his men to capture them,

rsv@1Samuel:23:29 @ And David went up from there, and dwelt in the strongholds of En-ge'di.

rsv@1Samuel:24:1 @ When Saul returned from following the Philistines, he was told, "Behold, David is in the wilderness of En-ge'di."

rsv@1Samuel:24:2 @ Then Saul took three thousand chosen men out of all Israel, and went to seek David and his men in front of the Wildgoats' Rocks.

rsv@1Samuel:24:3 @ And he came to the sheepfolds by the way, where there was a cave; and Saul went in to relieve himself. Now David and his men were sitting in the innermost parts of the cave.

rsv@1Samuel:24:10 @ Lo, this day your eyes have seen how the LORD gave you today into my hand in the cave; and some bade me kill you, but I spared you. I said, `I will not put forth my hand against my lord; for he is the LORD'S anointed.'

rsv@1Samuel:24:11 @ See, my father, see the skirt of your robe in my hand; for by the fact that I cut off the skirt of your robe, and did not kill you, you may know and see that there is no wrong or treason in my hands. I have not sinned against you, though you hunt my life to take it.

rsv@1Samuel:24:18 @ And you have declared this day how you have dealt well with me, in that you did not kill me when the LORD put me into your hands.

rsv@1Samuel:24:20 @ And now, behold, I know that you shall surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in your hand.

rsv@1Samuel:25:1 @ Now Samuel died; and all Israel assembled and mourned for him, and they buried him in his house at Ramah. Then David rose and went down to the wilderness of Paran.

rsv@1Samuel:25:4 @ David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.

rsv@1Samuel:25:5 @ So David sent ten young men; and David said to the young men, "Go up to Carmel, and go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.

rsv@1Samuel:25:36 @ And Ab'igail came to Nabal; and, lo, he was holding a feast in his house, like the feast of a king. And Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk; so she told him nothing at all until the morning light.

rsv@1Samuel:26:19 @ Now therefore let my lord the king hear the words of his servant. If it is the LORD who has stirred you up against me, may he accept an offering; but if it is men, may they be cursed before the LORD, for they have driven me out this day that I should have no share in the heritage of the LORD, saying, `Go, serve other gods.'

rsv@1Samuel:26:20 @ Now therefore, let not my blood fall to the earth away from the presence of the LORD; for the king of Israel has come out to seek my life, like one who hunts a partridge in the mountains."

rsv@1Samuel:26:21 @ Then Saul said, "I have done wrong; return, my son David, for I will no more do you harm, because my life was precious in your eyes this day; behold, I have played the fool, and have erred exceedingly."

rsv@1Samuel:26:24 @ Behold, as your life was precious this day in my sight, so may my life be precious in the sight of the LORD, and may he deliver me out of all tribulation."

rsv@1Samuel:27:1 @ And David said in his heart, "I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul; there is nothing better for me than that I should escape to the land of the Philistines; then Saul will despair of seeking me any longer within the borders of Israel, and I shall escape out of his hand."

rsv@1Samuel:27:5 @ Then David said to A'chish, "If I have found favor in your eyes, let a place be given me in one of the country towns, that I may dwell there; for why should your servant dwell in the royal city with you?"

rsv@1Samuel:28:15 @ Then Samuel said to Saul, "Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?" Saul answered, "I am in great distress; for the Philistines are warring against me, and God has turned away from me and answers me no more, either by prophets or by dreams; therefore I have summoned you to tell me what I shall do."

rsv@1Samuel:28:20 @ Then Saul fell at once full length upon the ground, filled with fear because of the words of Samuel; and there was no strength in him, for he had eaten nothing all day and all night.

rsv@1Chronicles:11:10 @ Now these are the chiefs of David's mighty men, who gave him strong support in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of the LORD concerning Israel.

rsv@1Chronicles:11:14 @ But he took his stand in the midst of the plot, and defended it, and slew the Philistines; and the LORD saved them by a great victory.

rsv@1Chronicles:11:15 @ Three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David at the cave of Adullam, when the army of Philistines was encamped in the valley of Reph'aim.

rsv@1Chronicles:11:16 @ David was then in the stronghold; and the garrison of the Philistines was then at Bethlehem.

rsv@1Chronicles:11:22 @ And Benai'ah the son of Jehoi'ada was a valiant man of Kabzeel, a doer of great deeds; he smote two ariels of Moab. He also went down and slew a lion in a pit on a day when snow had fallen.

rsv@1Chronicles:11:23 @ And he slew an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits tall. The Egyptian had in his hand a spear like a weaver's beam; but Benai'ah went down to him with a staff, and snatched the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.

rsv@1Chronicles:12:1 @ Now these are the men who came to David at Ziklag, while he could not move about freely because of Saul the son of Kish; and they were among the mighty men who helped him in war.

rsv@1Chronicles:12:8 @ From the Gadites there went over to David at the stronghold in the wilderness mighty and experienced warriors, expert with shield and spear, whose faces were like the faces of lions, and who were swift as gazelles upon the mountains:

rsv@1Chronicles:12:15 @ These are the men who crossed the Jordan in the first month, when it was overflowing all its banks, and put to flight all those in the valleys, to the east and to the west.

rsv@1Chronicles:12:17 @ David went out to meet them and said to them, "If you have come to me in friendship to help me, my heart will be knit to you; but if to betray me to my adversaries, although there is no wrong in my hands, then may the God of our fathers see and rebuke you."

rsv@1Chronicles:12:38 @ All these, men of war, arrayed in battle order, came to Hebron with full intent to make David king over all Israel; likewise all the rest of Israel were of a single mind to make David king.

rsv@1Chronicles:12:40 @ And also their neighbors, from as far as Is'sachar and Zeb'ulun and Naph'tali, came bringing food on asses and on camels and on mules and on oxen, abundant provisions of meal, cakes of figs, clusters of raisins, and wine and oil, oxen and sheep, for there was joy in Israel.

rsv@1Chronicles:13:2 @ And David said to all the assembly of Israel, "If it seems good to you, and if it is the will of the LORD our God, let us send abroad to our brethren who remain in all the land of Israel, and with them to the priests and Levites in the cities that have pasture lands, that they may come together to us.

rsv@1Chronicles:13:3 @ Then let us bring again the ark of our God to us; for we neglected it in the days of Saul."

rsv@1Chronicles:13:4 @ All the assembly agreed to do so, for the thing was right in the eyes of all the people.

rsv@1Chronicles:13:14 @ And the ark of God remained with the household of O'bed-e'dom in his house three months; and the LORD blessed the household of O'bed-e'dom and all that he had.

rsv@1Chronicles:14:4 @ These are the names of the children whom he had in Jerusalem: Shammu'a, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,

rsv@1Chronicles:14:8 @ When the Philistines heard that David had been anointed king over all Israel, all the Philistines went up in search of David; and David heard of it and went out against them.

rsv@1Chronicles:15:1 @ David built houses for himself in the city of David; and he prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched a tent for it.

rsv@1Chronicles:15:13 @ Because you did not carry it the first time, the LORD our God broke forth upon us, because we did not care for it in the way that is ordained."

rsv@1Chronicles:15:22 @ Chenani'ah, leader of the Levites in music, should direct the music, for he understood it.

rsv@1Chronicles:15:29 @ And as the ark of the covenant of the LORD came to the city of David, Michal the daughter of Saul looked out of the window, and saw King David dancing and making merry; and she despised him in her heart.

rsv@1Chronicles:16:2 @ And when David had finished offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD,

rsv@1Chronicles:16:10 @ Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice!

rsv@1Chronicles:17:15 @ In accordance with all these words, and in accordance with all this vision, Nathan spoke to David.

rsv@1Chronicles:17:16 @ Then King David went in and sat before the LORD, and said, "Who am I, O LORD God, and what is my house, that thou hast brought me thus far?

rsv@1Chronicles:17:17 @ And this was a small thing in thy eyes, O God; thou hast also spoken of thy servant's house for a great while to come, and hast shown me future generations, O LORD God!

rsv@1Chronicles:19:2 @ And David said, "I will deal loyally with Hanun the son of Nahash, for his father dealt loyally with me." So David sent messengers to console him concerning his father. And David's servants came to Hanun in the land of the Ammonites, to console him.

rsv@1Chronicles:19:4 @ So Hanun took David's servants, and shaved them, and cut off their garments in the middle, at their hips, and sent them away;

rsv@1Chronicles:19:9 @ And the Ammonites came out and drew up in battle array at the entrance of the city, and the kings who had come were by themselves in the open country.

rsv@1Chronicles:19:10 @ When Jo'ab saw that the battle was set against him both in front and in the rear, he chose some of the picked men of Israel, and arrayed them against the Syrians;

rsv@1Chronicles:19:17 @ And when it was told David, he gathered all Israel together, and crossed the Jordan, and came to them, and drew up his forces against them. And when David set the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.

rsv@1Chronicles:20:1 @ In the spring of the year, the time when kings go forth to battle, Jo'ab led out the army, and ravaged the country of the Ammonites, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem. And Jo'ab smote Rabbah, and overthrew it.

rsv@1Chronicles:20:2 @ And David took the crown of their king from his head; he found that it weighed a talent of gold, and in it was a precious stone; and it was placed on David's head. And he brought forth the spoil of the city, a very great amount.

rsv@1Chronicles:20:3 @ And he brought forth the people who were in it, and set them to labor with saws and iron picks and axes; and thus David did to all the cities of the Ammonites. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.

rsv@1Chronicles:20:6 @ And there was again war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on each hand, and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number; and he also was descended from the giants.

rsv@1Chronicles:20:8 @ These were descended from the giants in Gath; and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.

rsv@1Chronicles:21:5 @...the people to David. In all...

rsv@1Chronicles:21:6 @ But he did not include Levi and Benjamin in the numbering, for the king's command was abhorrent to Jo'ab.

rsv@1Chronicles:21:8 @ And David said to God, "I have sinned greatly in that I have done this thing. But now, I pray thee, take away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very foolishly."

rsv@1Chronicles:21:13 @ Then David said to Gad, "I am in great distress; let me fall into the hand of the LORD, for his mercy is very great; but let me not fall into the hand of man."

rsv@1Chronicles:21:16 @ And David lifted his eyes and saw the angel of the LORD standing between earth and heaven, and in his hand a drawn sword stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the elders, clothed in sackcloth, fell upon their faces.

rsv@2Chronicles:32:23 @ And many brought gifts to the LORD to Jerusalem and precious things to Hezeki'ah king of Judah, so that he was exalted in the sight of all nations from that time onward.

rsv@2Chronicles:32:24 @ In those days Hezeki'ah became sick and was at the point of death, and he prayed to the LORD; and he answered him and gave him a sign.

rsv@2Chronicles:32:26 @ But Hezeki'ah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the LORD did not come upon them in the days of Hezeki'ah.

rsv@2Chronicles:32:29 @ He likewise provided cities for himself, and flocks and herds in abundance; for God had given him very great possessions.

rsv@2Chronicles:32:30 @ This same Hezeki'ah closed the upper outlet of the waters of Gihon and directed them down to the west side of the city of David. And Hezeki'ah prospered in all his works.

rsv@2Chronicles:33:6 @ And he burned his sons as an offering in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and practiced soothsaying and augury and sorcery, and dealt with mediums and with wizards. He did much evil in the sight of the LORD, provoking him to anger.

rsv@2Chronicles:33:12 @ And when he was in distress he entreated the favor of the LORD his God and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers.

rsv@2Chronicles:33:14 @ Afterwards he built an outer wall for the city of David west of Gihon, in the valley, and for the entrance into the Fish Gate, and carried it round Ophel, and raised it to a very great height; he also put commanders of the army in all the fortified cities in Judah.

rsv@2Chronicles:33:15 @ And he took away the foreign gods and the idol from the house of the LORD, and all the altars that he had built on the mountain of the house of the LORD and in Jerusalem, and he threw them outside of the city.

rsv@2Chronicles:34:33 @ And Josi'ah took away all the abominations from all the territory that belonged to the people of Israel, and made all who were in Israel serve the LORD their God. All his days they did not turn away from following the LORD the God of their fathers.

rsv@2Chronicles:35:14 @ And afterward they prepared for themselves and for the priests, because the priests the sons of Aaron were busied in offering the burnt offerings and the fat parts until night; so the Levites prepared for themselves and for the priests the sons of Aaron.

rsv@2Chronicles:35:15 @ The singers, the sons of Asaph, were in their place according to the command of David, and Asaph, and Heman, and Jedu'thun the king's seer; and the gatekeepers were at each gate; they did not need to depart from their service, for their brethren the Levites prepared for them.

rsv@2Chronicles:35:18 @ No passover like it had been kept in Israel since the days of Samuel the prophet; none of the kings of Israel had kept such a passover as was kept by Josi'ah, and the priests and the Levites, and all Judah and Israel who were present, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

rsv@2Chronicles:36:17 @ Therefore he brought up against them the king of the Chalde'ans, who slew their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion on young man or virgin, old man or aged; he gave them all into his hand.

rsv@2Chronicles:36:20 @ He took into exile in Babylon those who had escaped from the sword, and they became servants to him and to his sons until the establishment of the kingdom of Persia,

rsv@Nehemiah:1:11 @ O Lord, let thy ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants who delight to fear thy name; and give success to thy servant today, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man." Now I was cupbearer to the king.

rsv@Nehemiah:2:1 @ In the month of Nisan, in the twentieth year of King Ar-ta-xerx'es, when wine was before him, I took up the wine and gave it to the king. Now I had not been sad in his presence.

rsv@Nehemiah:2:5 @ And I said to the king, "If it pleases the king, and if your servant has found favor in your sight, that you send me to Judah, to the city of my fathers' sepulchres, that I may rebuild it."

rsv@Nehemiah:2:12 @ Then I arose in the night, I and a few men with me; and I told no one what my God had put into my heart to do for Jerusalem. There was no beast with me but the beast on which I rode.

rsv@Nehemiah:2:15 @ Then I went up in the night by the valley and inspected the wall; and I turned back and entered by the Valley Gate, and so returned.

rsv@Nehemiah:2:17 @ Then I said to them, "You see the trouble we are in, how Jerusalem lies in ruins with its gates burned. Come, let us build the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no longer suffer disgrace."

rsv@Nehemiah:2:20 @ Then I replied to them, "The God of heaven will make us prosper, and we his servants will arise and build; but you have no portion or right or memorial in Jerusalem."

rsv@Nehemiah:4:2 @ And he said in the presence of his brethren and of the army of Sama'ria, "What are these feeble Jews doing? Will they restore things? Will they sacrifice? Will they finish up in a day? Will they revive the stones out of the heaps of rubbish, and burned ones at that?"

rsv@Nehemiah:4:4 @ Hear, O our God, for we are despised; turn back their taunt upon their own heads, and give them up to be plundered in a land where they are captives.

rsv@Nehemiah:4:13 @ So in the lowest parts of the space behind the wall, in open places, I stationed the people according to their families, with their swords, their spears, and their bows.

rsv@Nehemiah:4:17 @ who were building on the wall. Those who carried burdens were laden in such a way that each with one hand labored on the work and with the other held his weapon.

rsv@Nehemiah:4:20 @ In the place where you hear the sound of the trumpet, rally to us there. Our God will fight for us."

rsv@Nehemiah:4:23 @ So neither I nor my brethren nor my servants nor the men of the guard who followed me, none of us took off our clothes; each kept his weapon in his hand.

rsv@Nehemiah:5:5 @ Now our flesh is as the flesh of our brethren, our children are as their children; yet we are forcing our sons and our daughters to be slaves, and some of our daughters have already been enslaved; but it is not in our power to help it, for other men have our fields and our vineyards."

rsv@Nehemiah:5:9 @ So I said, "The thing that you are doing is not good. Ought you not to walk in the fear of our God to prevent the taunts of the nations our enemies?

rsv@Nehemiah:5:14 @ Moreover from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year to the thirty-second year of Ar-ta-xerx'es the king, twelve years, neither I nor my brethren ate the food allowance of the governor.

rsv@Nehemiah:6:5 @ In the same way Sanbal'lat for the fifth time sent his servant to me with an open letter in his hand.

rsv@Nehemiah:6:6 @ In it was written, "It is reported among the nations, and Geshem also says it, that you and the Jews intend to rebel; that is why you are building the wall; and you wish to become their king, according to this report.

rsv@Nehemiah:6:7 @ And you have also set up prophets to proclaim concerning you in Jerusalem, `There is a king in Judah.' And now it will be reported to the king according to these words. So now come, and let us take counsel together."

rsv@Nehemiah:6:10 @ Now when I went into the house of Shemai'ah the son of Delai'ah, son of Mehet'abel, who was shut up, he said, "Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let us close the doors of the temple; for they are coming to kill you, at night they are coming to kill you."

rsv@Nehemiah:6:13 @ For this purpose he was hired, that I should be afraid and act in this way and sin, and so they could give me an evil name, in order to taunt me.

rsv@Esther:3:15 @ The couriers went in haste by order of the king, and the decree was issued in Susa the capital. And the king and Haman sat down to drink; but the city of Susa was perplexed.

rsv@Esther:4:3 @ And in every province, wherever the king's command and his decree came, there was great mourning among the Jews, with fasting and weeping and lamenting, and most of them lay in sackcloth and ashes.

rsv@Esther:4:6 @ Hathach went out to Mor'decai in the open square of the city in front of the king's gate,

rsv@Esther:4:8 @ Mor'decai also gave him a copy of the written decree issued in Susa for their destruction, that he might show it to Esther and explain it to her and charge her to go to the king to make supplication to him and entreat him for her people.

rsv@Esther:4:11 @ "All the king's servants and the people of the king's provinces know that if any man or woman goes to the king inside the inner court without being called, there is but one law; all alike are to be put to death, except the one to whom the king holds out the golden scepter that he may live. And I have not been called to come in to the king these thirty days."

rsv@Esther:4:13 @ Then Mor'decai told them to return answer to Esther, "Think not that in the king's palace you will escape any more than all the other Jews.

rsv@Esther:4:16 @ "Go, gather all the Jews to be found in Susa, and hold a fast on my behalf, and neither eat nor drink for three days, night or day. I and my maids will also fast as you do. Then I will go to the king, though it is against the law; and if I perish, I perish."

rsv@Esther:5:1 @ On the third day Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the king's palace, opposite the king's hall. The king was sitting on his royal throne inside the palace opposite the entrance to the palace;

rsv@Esther:5:2 @ and when the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, she found favor in his sight and he held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. Then Esther approached and touched the top of the scepter.

rsv@Esther:5:8 @ If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition and fulfil my request, let the king and Haman come tomorrow to the dinner which I will prepare for them, and tomorrow I will do as the king has said."

rsv@Esther:5:9 @ And Haman went out that day joyful and glad of heart. But when Haman saw Mor'decai in the king's gate, that he neither rose nor trembled before him, he was filled with wrath against Mor'decai.

rsv@Esther:5:14 @ Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, "Let a gallows fifty cubits high be made, and in the morning tell the king to have Mor'decai hanged upon it; then go merrily with the king to the dinner." This counsel pleased Haman, and he had the gallows made.

rsv@Esther:6:4 @ And the king said, "Who is in the court?" Now Haman had just entered the outer court of the king's palace to speak to the king about having Mor'decai hanged on the gallows that he had prepared for him.

rsv@Esther:6:5 @ So the king's servants told him, "Haman is there, standing in the court." And the king said, "Let him come in."

rsv@Esther:6:14 @ While they were yet talking with him, the king's eunuchs arrived and brought Haman in haste to the banquet that Esther had prepared.

rsv@Esther:7:1 @ So the king and Haman went in to feast with Queen Esther.

rsv@Esther:7:3 @ Then Queen Esther answered, "If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request.

rsv@Esther:7:6 @ And Esther said, "A foe and enemy! This wicked Haman!" Then Haman was in terror before the king and the queen.

rsv@Esther:7:7 @ And the king rose from the feast in wrath and went into the palace garden; but Haman stayed to beg his life from Queen Esther, for he saw that evil was determined against him by the king.

rsv@Esther:7:8 @ And the king returned from the palace garden to the place where they were drinking wine, as Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was; and the king said, "Will he even assault the queen in my presence, in my own house?" As the words left the mouth of the king, they covered Haman's face.

rsv@Esther:7:9 @ Then said Harbo'na, one of the eunuchs in attendance on the king, "Moreover, the gallows which Haman has prepared for Mor'decai, whose word saved the king, is standing in Haman's house, fifty cubits high."

rsv@Esther:8:5 @ and Esther rose and stood before the king. And she said, "If it please the king, and if I have found favor in his sight, and if the thing seem right before the king, and I be pleasing in his eyes, let an order be written to revoke the letters devised by Haman the Ag'agite, the son of Hammeda'tha, which he wrote to destroy the Jews who are in all the provinces of the king.

rsv@Esther:8:8 @ And you may write as you please with regard to the Jews, in the name of the king, and seal it with the king's ring; for an edict written in the name of the king and sealed with the king's ring cannot be revoked."

rsv@Esther:8:9 @ The king's secretaries were summoned at that time, in the third month, which is the month of Sivan, on the twenty-...of the provinces from India to...-seven provinces, to every province in its own script and to every people in its own language, and also to the Jews in their script and their language.

rsv@Esther:8:10 @ The writing was in the name of King Ahasu-e'rus and sealed with the king's ring, and letters were sent by mounted couriers riding on swift horses that were used in the king's service, bred from the royal stud.

rsv@Esther:8:11 @ By these the king allowed the Jews who were in every city to gather and defend their lives, to destroy, to slay, and to annihilate any armed force of any people or province that might attack them, with their children and women, and to plunder their goods,

rsv@Esther:8:13 @ A copy of what was written was to be issued as a decree in every province, and by proclamation to all peoples, and the Jews were to be ready on that day to avenge themselves upon their enemies.

rsv@Esther:8:14 @ So the couriers, mounted on their swift horses that were used in the king's service, rode out in haste, urged by the king's command; and the decree was issued in Susa the capital.

rsv@Esther:8:15 @ Then Mor'decai went out from the presence of the king in royal robes of blue and white, with a great golden crown and a mantle of fine linen and purple, while the city of Susa shouted and rejoiced.

rsv@Esther:8:17 @ And in every province and in every city, wherever the king's command and his edict came, there was gladness and joy among the Jews, a feast and a holiday. And many from the peoples of the country declared themselves Jews, for the fear of the Jews had fallen upon them.

rsv@Esther:9:1 @ Now in the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar, on the thirteenth day of the same, when the king's command and edict were about to be executed, on the very day when the enemies of the Jews hoped to get the mastery over them, but which had been changed to a day when the Jews should get the mastery over their foes,

rsv@Esther:9:2 @ the Jews gathered in their cities throughout all the provinces of King Ahasu-e'rus to lay hands on such as sought their hurt. And no one could make a stand against them, for the fear of them had fallen upon all peoples.

rsv@Esther:9:4 @ For Mor'decai was great in the king's house, and his fame spread throughout all the provinces; for the man Mor'decai grew more and more powerful.

rsv@Esther:9:6 @ In Susa the capital itself the Jews slew and destroyed five hundred men,

rsv@Esther:9:11 @ That very day the number of those slain in Susa the capital was reported to the king.

rsv@Esther:9:12 @ And the king said to Queen Esther, "In Susa the capital the Jews have slain five hundred men and also the ten sons of Haman. What then have they done in the rest of the king's provinces! Now what is your petition? It shall be granted you. And what further is your request? It shall be fulfilled."

rsv@Esther:9:13 @ And Esther said, "If it please the king, let the Jews who are in Susa be allowed tomorrow also to do according to this day's edict. And let the ten sons of Haman be hanged on the gallows."

rsv@Esther:9:14 @ So the king commanded this to be done; a decree was issued in Susa, and the ten sons of Haman were hanged.

rsv@Esther:9:15 @ The Jews who were in Susa gathered also on the fourteenth day of the month of Adar and they slew three hundred men in Susa; but they laid no hands on the plunder.

rsv@Esther:9:16 @ Now the other Jews who were in the king's provinces also gathered to defend their lives, and got relief from their enemies, and slew seventy-five thousand of those who hated them; but they laid no hands on the plunder.

rsv@Esther:9:18 @ But the Jews who were in Susa gathered on the thirteenth day and on the fourteenth, and rested on the fifteenth day, making that a day of feasting and gladness.

rsv@Esther:9:19 @ Therefore the Jews of the villages, who live in the open towns, hold the fourteenth day of the month of Adar as a day for gladness and feasting and holiday-making, and a day on which they send choice portions to one another.

rsv@Esther:9:20 @ And Mor'decai recorded these things, and sent letters to all the Jews who were in all the provinces of King Ahasu-e'rus, both near and far,

rsv@Esther:9:25 @ but when Esther came before the king, he gave orders in writing that his wicked plot which he had devised against the Jews should come upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.

rsv@Esther:9:26 @ Therefore they called these days Purim, after the term Pur. And therefore, because of all that was written in this letter, and of what they had faced in this matter, and of what had befallen them,

rsv@Esther:9:28 @ that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, in every family, province, and city, and that these days of Purim should never fall into disuse among the Jews, nor should the commemoration of these days cease among their descendants.

rsv@Esther:9:30 @ Letters were sent to all the Jews, to the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasu-e'rus, in words of peace and truth,

rsv@Esther:9:32 @ The command of Queen Esther fixed these practices of Purim, and it was recorded in writing.

rsv@Esther:10:2 @ And all the acts of his power and might, and the full account of the high honor of Mor'decai, to which the king advanced him, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?

rsv@Esther:10:3 @ For Mor'decai the Jew was next in rank to King Ahasu-e'rus, and he was great among the Jews and popular with the multitude of his brethren, for he sought the welfare of his people and spoke peace to all his people.

rsv@John:5:34 @ He was a burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.

rsv@John:5:37 @ and you do not have his word abiding in you, for you do not believe him whom he has sent.

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

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

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

rsv@John:6:29 @ Jesus answered them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent."

rsv@John:6:31 @ Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, `He gave them bread from heaven to eat.'"

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

rsv@John:6:40 @ 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."

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

rsv@John:6:49 @ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died.

rsv@John:6:53 @ So Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you;

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

rsv@John:6:59 @ This he said in the synagogue, as he taught at Caper'na-um.

rsv@John:6:61 @ But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at it, said to them, "Do you take offense at this?

rsv@John:7:1 @ After this Jesus went about in Galilee; he would not go about in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

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

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

rsv@John:7:9 @ So saying, he remained in Galilee.

rsv@John:7:10 @ But after his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly but in private.

rsv@John:7:18 @ He who speaks on his own authority seeks his own glory; but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and in him there is no falsehood.

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

rsv@John:7:31 @ Yet many of the people believed in him; they said, "When the Christ appears, will he do more signs than this man has done?"

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

rsv@John:7:39 @ Now this he said about the Spirit, which those who believed in him were to receive; for as yet the Spirit had not been given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

rsv@John:7:48 @ Have any of the authorities or of the Pharisees believed in him?

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

rsv@John:8:3 @ The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placing her in the midst

rsv@John:8:4 @ they said to him, "Teacher, this woman has been caught in the act of adultery.

rsv@John:8:5 @ Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such. What do you say about her?"

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

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

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

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

rsv@John:8:24 @ I told you that you would die in your sins, for you will die in your sins unless you believe that I am he."

rsv@John:8:30 @ As he spoke thus, many believed in him.

rsv@John:8:31 @ Jesus then said to the Jews who had believed in him, "If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples,

rsv@John:8:33 @ They answered him, "We are descendants of Abraham, and have never been in bondage to any one. How is it that you say, `You will be made free'?"

rsv@John:8:35 @ The slave does not continue in the house for ever; the son continues for ever.

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

rsv@John:8:44 @ You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

rsv@John:8:48 @ The Jews answered him, "Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?"

rsv@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered, "It was not that this man sinned, or his parents, but that the works of God might be made manifest in him.

rsv@John:9:5 @ As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

rsv@John:9:7 @ saying to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Silo'am" (which means Sent). So he went and washed and came back seeing.

rsv@John:9:34 @ They answered him, "You were born in utter sin, and would you teach us?" And they cast him out.

rsv@John:9:35 @ Jesus heard that they had cast him out, and having found him he said, "Do you believe in the Son of man?"

rsv@John:9:36 @ He answered, "And who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?"

rsv@John:10:1 @ "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way, that man is a thief and a robber;

rsv@John:10:9 @ I am the door; if any one enters by me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.

rsv@John:10:23 @ it was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of Solomon.

rsv@John:10:24 @ So the Jews gathered round him and said to him, "How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly."

rsv@John:10:25 @ Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness to me;

rsv@John:10:34 @ Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, `I said, you are gods'?

rsv@John:10:38 @ but if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father."

rsv@John:10:42 @ And many believed in him there.

rsv@John:11:6 @ So when he heard that he was ill, he stayed two days longer in the place where he was.

rsv@John:11:9 @ Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any one walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

rsv@John:11:10 @ But if any one walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light is not in him."

rsv@John:11:13 @ Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he meant taking rest in sleep.

rsv@John:11:17 @ Now when Jesus came, he found that Laz'arus had already been in the tomb four days.

rsv@John:11:20 @ When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, while Mary sat in the house.

rsv@John:11:24 @ Martha said to him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."

rsv@John:11:25 @ Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live,

rsv@John:11:26 @ and whoever lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?"

rsv@John:11:30 @ Now Jesus had not yet come to the village, but was still in the place where Martha had met him.

rsv@John:11:31 @ When the Jews who were with her in the house, consoling her, saw Mary rise quickly and go out, they followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there.

rsv@John:11:33 @ When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled;

rsv@John:11:45 @ Many of the Jews therefore, who had come with Mary and had seen what he did, believed in him;

rsv@John:11:48 @ If we let him go on thus, every one will believe in him, and the Romans will come and destroy both our holy place and our nation."

rsv@John:11:56 @ They were looking for Jesus and saying to one another as they stood in the temple, "What do you think? That he will not come to the feast?"

rsv@John:12:11 @ because on account of him many of the Jews were going away and believing in Jesus.

rsv@John:12:13 @ So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, crying, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!"

rsv@John:12:21 @ So these came to Philip, who was from Beth-sa'ida in Galilee, and said to him, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus."

rsv@John:12:25 @ He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

rsv@John:12:35 @ Jesus said to them, "The light is with you for a little longer. Walk while you have the light, lest the darkness overtake you; he who walks in the darkness does not know where he goes.

rsv@John:12:36 @ While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light." When Jesus had said this, he departed and hid himself from them.

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

rsv@John:12:42 @ Nevertheless many even of the authorities believed in him, but for fear of the Pharisees they did not confess it, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:

rsv@John:12:44 @ And Jesus cried out and said, "He who believes in me, believes not in me but in him who sent me.

rsv@John:12:46 @ I have come as light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness.

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

rsv@John:13:8 @ Peter said to him, "You shall never wash my feet." Jesus answered him, "If I do not wash you, you have no part in me."

rsv@John:13:21 @ When Jesus had thus spoken, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, "Truly, truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me."

rsv@John:13:31 @ When he had gone out, Jesus said, "Now is the Son of man glorified, and in him God is glorified;

rsv@John:13:32 @ if God is glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and glorify him at once.

rsv@John:14:1 @ "Let not your hearts be troubled; believe in God, believe also in me.

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

rsv@John:14:10 @ Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority; but the Father who dwells in me does his works.

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

rsv@John:14:12 @ "Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I go to the Father.

rsv@John:14:13 @ Whatever you ask in my name, I will do it, that the Father may be glorified in the Son;

rsv@John:14:14 @ if you ask anything in my name, I will do it.

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

rsv@John:14:26 @ But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.

rsv@John:15:4 @ Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.

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

rsv@John:15:6 @ If a man does not abide in me, he is cast forth as a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire and burned.

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

rsv@John:15:9 @ As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love.

rsv@John:15:10 @ If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.

rsv@John:15:11 @ These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.

rsv@John:15:16 @ You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

rsv@John:16:21 @ When a woman is in travail she has sorrow, because her hour has come; but when she is delivered of the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a child is born into the world.

rsv@John:16:23 @ In that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly, I say to you, if you ask anything of the Father, he will give it to you in my name.

rsv@John:16:24 @ Hitherto you have asked nothing in my name; ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.

rsv@John:18:20 @ Jesus answered him, "I have spoken openly to the world; I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together; I have said nothing secretly.

rsv@John:18:26 @ One of the servants of the high priest, a kinsman of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, "Did I not see you in the garden with him?"

rsv@John:18:38 @ Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" After he had said this, he went out to the Jews again, and told them, "I find no crime in him.

rsv@John:19:6 @ When the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, "Crucify him, crucify him!" Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no crime in him."

rsv@John:19:13 @ When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called The Pavement, and in Hebrew, Gab'batha.

rsv@John:19:17 @ So they took Jesus, and he went out, bearing his own cross, to the place called the place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew Gol'gotha.

rsv@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, in Latin, and in Greek.

rsv@John:19:31 @ Since it was the day of Preparation, in order to prevent the bodies from remaining 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.

rsv@John:19:40 @ They took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews.

rsv@Acts:5:12 @ Now many signs and wonders were done among the people by the hands of the apostles. And they were all together in Solomon's Portico.

rsv@Acts:5:13 @ None of the rest dared join them, but the people held them in high honor.

rsv@Acts:5:18 @ they arrested the apostles and put them in the common prison.

rsv@Acts:5:20 @ "Go and stand in the temple and speak to the people all the words of this Life."

rsv@Acts:5:22 @ But when the officers came, they did not find them in the prison, and they returned and reported,

rsv@Acts:5:25 @ And some one came and told them, "The men whom you put in prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people."

rsv@Acts:5:28 @ saying, "We strictly charged you not to teach in this name, yet here you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and you intend to bring this man's blood upon us."

rsv@Acts:5:34 @ But a Pharisee in the council named Gama'li-el, 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.

rsv@Acts:5:37 @ After him Judas the Galilean arose in the days of the census and drew away some of the people after him; he also perished, and all who followed him were scattered.

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

rsv@Acts:5:40 @ So they took his advice, and when they had called in the apostles, they beat them and charged them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.

rsv@Acts:5:42 @ And every day in the temple and at home they did not cease teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ.

rsv@Acts:6:1 @ Now in these days when the disciples were increasing in number, the Hellenists murmured against the Hebrews because their widows were neglected in the daily distribution.

rsv@Acts:6:7 @ And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests were obedient to the faith.

rsv@Acts:6:15 @ And gazing at him, all who sat in the council saw that his face was like the face of an angel.

rsv@Acts:7:2 @ And Stephen said: "Brethren and fathers, hear me. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopota'mia, before he lived in Haran,

rsv@Acts:7:4 @ Then he departed from the land of the Chalde'ans, and lived in Haran. And after his father died, God removed him from there into this land in which you are now living;

rsv@Acts:7:6 @ And God spoke to this effect, that his posterity would be aliens in a land belonging to others, who would enslave them and ill-treat them four hundred years.

rsv@Acts:7:7 @ `But I will judge the nation which they serve,' said God, `and after that they shall come out and worship me in this place.'

rsv@Acts:8:28 @ and was returning; seated in his chariot, he was reading the prophet Isaiah.

rsv@Acts:8:33 @ In his humiliation justice was denied him. Who can describe his generation? For his life is taken up from the earth."

rsv@Acts:9:10 @ Now there was a disciple at Damascus named Anani'as. The Lord said to him in a vision, "Anani'as." And he said, "Here I am, Lord."

rsv@Acts:9:11 @ And the Lord said to him, "Rise and go to the street called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for a man of Tarsus named Saul; for behold, he is praying,

rsv@Acts:9:20 @ And in the synagogues immediately he proclaimed Jesus, saying, "He is the Son of God."

rsv@Acts:9:21 @ And all who heard him were amazed, and said, "Is not this the man who made havoc in Jerusalem of those who called on this name? And he has come here for this purpose, to bring them bound before the chief priests."

rsv@Acts:9:22 @ But Saul increased all the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived in Damascus by proving that Jesus was the Christ.

rsv@Acts:9:25 @ but his disciples took him by night and let him down over the wall, lowering him in a basket.

rsv@Acts:9:27 @ But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared to them how on the road he had seen the Lord, who spoke to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Jesus.

rsv@Acts:9:28 @ So he went in and out among them at Jerusalem,

rsv@Acts:9:29 @ preaching boldly in the name of the Lord. And he spoke and disputed against the Hellenists; but they were seeking to kill him.

rsv@Acts:9:31 @ So the church throughout all Judea and Galilee and Sama'ria had peace and was built up; and walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit it was multiplied.

rsv@Acts:9:37 @ In those days she fell sick and died; and when they had washed her, they laid her in an upper room.

rsv@Acts:9:42 @ And it became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.

rsv@Acts:9:43 @ And he stayed in Joppa for many days with one Simon, a tanner.

rsv@Acts:10:3 @ About the ninth hour of the day he saw clearly in a vision an angel of God coming in and saying to him, "Cornelius."

rsv@Acts:10:46 @ For they heard them speaking in tongues and extolling God. Then Peter declared,

rsv@Acts:10:48 @ And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to remain for some days.

rsv@Acts:11:1 @ Now the apostles and the brethren who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.

rsv@Acts:11:4 @ But Peter began and explained to them in order:

rsv@Acts:11:5 @ "I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, something descending, like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came down to me.

rsv@Acts:11:11 @ At that very moment three men arrived at the house in which we were, sent to me from Caesare'a.

rsv@Acts:11:13 @ And he told us how he had seen the angel standing in his house and saying, `Send to Joppa and bring Simon called Peter;

rsv@Acts:11:17 @ If then God gave the same gift to them as he gave to us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could withstand God?"

rsv@Acts:11:22 @ News of this came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.

rsv@Acts:11:26 @ and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church, and taught a large company of people; and in Antioch the disciples were for the first time called Christians.

rsv@Acts:11:27 @ Now in these days prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.

rsv@Acts:11:28 @ And one of them named Ag'abus stood up and foretold by the Spirit that there would be a great famine over all the world; and this took place in the days of Claudius.

rsv@Acts:11:29 @ And the disciples determined, every one according to his ability, to send relief to the brethren who lived in Judea;

rsv@Acts:12:4 @ And when he had seized him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to guard him, intending after the Passover to bring him out to the people.

rsv@Acts:12:5 @ So Peter was kept in prison; but earnest prayer for him was made to God by the church.

rsv@Acts:12:7 @ and behold, an angel of the Lord appeared, and a light shone in the cell; and he struck Peter on the side and woke him, saying, "Get up quickly." And the chains fell off his hands.

rsv@Acts:12:14 @ Recognizing Peter's voice, in her joy she did not open the gate but ran in and told that Peter was standing at the gate.

rsv@Acts:12:20 @ Now Herod was angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; and they came to him in a body, and having persuaded Blastus, the king's chamberlain, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king's country for food.

rsv@Acts:13:1 @ Now in the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyre'ne, Man'a-en a member of the court of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

rsv@Acts:13:5 @ When they arrived at Sal'amis, they proclaimed the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John to assist them.

rsv@Acts:13:13 @ Now Paul and his company set sail from Paphos, and came to Perga in Pamphyl'ia. And John left them and returned to Jerusalem;

rsv@Acts:13:17 @ The God of this people Israel chose our fathers and made the people great during their stay in the land of Egypt, and with uplifted arm he led them out of it.

rsv@Acts:13:18 @ And for about forty years he bore with them in the wilderness.

rsv@Acts:13:19 @ And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them their land as an inheritance, for about four hundred and fifty years.

rsv@Acts:13:22 @ And when he had removed him, he raised up David to be their king; of whom he testified and said, `I have found in David the son of Jesse a man after my heart, who will do all my will.'

rsv@Acts:13:27 @ For those who live in Jerusalem and their rulers, because they did not recognize him nor understand the utterances of the prophets which are read every sabbath, fulfilled these by condemning him.

rsv@Acts:13:29 @ And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a tomb.

rsv@Acts:13:33 @ this he has fulfilled to us their children by raising Jesus; as also it is written in the second psalm, `Thou art my Son, today I have begotten thee.'

rsv@Acts:13:34 @ And as for the fact that he raised him from the dead, no more to return to corruption, he spoke in this way, `I will give you the holy and sure blessings of David.'

rsv@Acts:13:35 @ Therefore he says also in another psalm, `Thou wilt not let thy Holy One see corruption.'

rsv@Acts:13:36 @ For David, after he had served the counsel of God in his own generation, fell asleep, and was laid with his fathers, and saw corruption;

rsv@Acts:13:40 @ Beware, therefore, lest there come upon you what is said in the prophets:

rsv@Acts:13:41 @ `Behold, you scoffers, and wonder, and perish; for I do a deed in your days, a deed you will never believe, if one declares it to you.'"

rsv@Acts:13:43 @ And when the meeting of the synagogue broke up, many Jews and devout converts to Judaism followed Paul and Barnabas, who spoke to them and urged them to continue in the grace of God.

rsv@Acts:14:10 @ said in a loud voice, "Stand upright on your feet." And he sprang up and walked.

rsv@Acts:14:11 @ And when the crowds saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in Lycao'nian, "The gods have come down to us in the likeness of men!"

rsv@Acts:14:13 @ And the priest of Zeus, whose temple was in front of the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates and wanted to offer sacrifice with the people.

rsv@Acts:14:15 @ "Men, why are you doing this? We also are men, of like nature with you, and bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to a living God who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them.

rsv@Acts:14:16 @ In past generations he allowed all the nations to walk in their own ways;

rsv@Acts:14:22 @ strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and saying that through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.

rsv@Acts:14:23 @ And when they had appointed elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting they committed them to the Lord in whom they believed.

rsv@Acts:14:25 @ And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attali'a;

rsv@Acts:15:7 @ And after there had been much debate, Peter rose and said to them, "Brethren, you know that in the early days God made choice among you, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe.

rsv@Acts:15:21 @ For from early generations Moses has had in every city those who preach him, for he is read every sabbath in the synagogues."

rsv@Acts:15:23 @ with the following letter: "The brethren, both the apostles and the elders, to the brethren who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cili'cia, greeting.

rsv@Acts:15:33 @ And after they had spent some time, they were sent off in peace by the brethren to those who had sent them.

rsv@Acts:15:34 @ But Paul and Barnabas remained in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.

rsv@Acts:15:35 @ And after some days Paul said to Barnabas, "Come, let us return and visit the brethren in every city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are."

rsv@Acts:15:37 @ But Paul thought best not to take with them one who had withdrawn from them in Pamphyl'ia, and had not gone with them to the work.

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

rsv@Acts:16:5 @ So the churches were strengthened in the faith, and they increased in numbers daily.

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

rsv@Acts:16:9 @ And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedo'nia was standing beseeching him and saying, "Come over to Macedo'nia and help us."

rsv@Acts:16:12 @ and from there to Philip'pi, which is the leading city of the district of Macedo'nia, and a Roman colony. We remained in this city some days;

rsv@Acts:16:18 @ And this she did for many days. But Paul was annoyed, and turned and said to the spirit, "I charge you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her." And it came out that very hour.

rsv@Acts:16:22 @ The crowd joined in attacking them; and the magistrates tore the garments off them and gave orders to beat them with rods.

rsv@Acts:16:24 @ Having received this charge, he put them into the inner prison and fastened their feet in the stocks.

rsv@Acts:16:31 @ And they said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household."

rsv@Acts:16:32 @ And they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all that were in his house.

rsv@Acts:16:34 @ Then he brought them up into his house, and set food before them; and he rejoiced with all his household that he had believed in God.

rsv@Acts:16:36 @ And the jailer reported the words to Paul, saying, "The magistrates have sent to let you go; now therefore come out and go in peace."

rsv@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews were jealous, and taking some wicked fellows of the rabble, they gathered a crowd, set the city in an uproar, and attacked the house of Jason, seeking to bring them out to the people.

rsv@Acts:17:11 @ Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessaloni'ca, for they received the word with all eagerness, examining the scriptures daily to see if these things were so.

rsv@Acts:17:17 @ So he argued in the synagogue with the Jews and the devout persons, and in the market place every day with those who chanced to be there.

rsv@Acts:17:21 @ Now all the Athenians and the foreigners who lived there spent their time in nothing except telling or hearing something new.

rsv@Acts:17:22 @ So Paul, standing in the middle of the Are-op'agus, said: "Men of Athens, I perceive that in every way you are very religious.

rsv@Acts:18:4 @ And he argued in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded Jews and Greeks.

rsv@Acts:18:8 @ Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, together with all his household; and many of the Corinthians hearing Paul believed and were baptized.

rsv@Acts:18:9 @ And the Lord said to Paul one night in a vision, "Do not be afraid, but speak and do not be silent;

rsv@Acts:18:10 @ for I am with you, and no man shall attack you to harm you; for I have many people in this city."

rsv@Acts:18:17 @ And they all seized Sos'thenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the tribunal. But Gallio paid no attention to this.

rsv@Acts:18:24 @ Now a Jew named Apol'los, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an eloquent man, well versed in the scriptures.

rsv@Acts:18:25 @ He had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, though he knew only the baptism of John.

rsv@Acts:18:26 @ He began to speak boldly in the synagogue; but when Priscilla and Aq'uila heard him, they took him and expounded to him the way of God more accurately.

rsv@Acts:18:28 @ for he powerfully confuted the Jews in public, showing by the scriptures that the Christ was Jesus.

rsv@Acts:19:4 @ And Paul said, "John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, Jesus."

rsv@Acts:19:5 @ On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

rsv@Acts:19:7 @ There were about twelve of them in all.

rsv@Acts:19:9 @ but when some were stubborn and disbelieved, speaking evil of the Way before the congregation, he withdrew from them, taking the disciples with him, and argued daily in the hall of Tyran'nus.

rsv@Acts:19:16 @ And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, mastered all of them, and overpowered them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

rsv@Acts:19:19 @ And a number of those who practiced magic arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all; and they counted the value of them and found it came to fifty thousand pieces of silver.

rsv@Acts:19:21 @ Now after these events Paul resolved in the Spirit to pass through Macedo'nia and Acha'ia and go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."

rsv@Acts:19:22 @ And having sent into Macedo'nia two of his helpers, Timothy and Eras'tus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.

rsv@Acts:19:29 @ So the city was filled with the confusion; and they rushed together into the theater, dragging with them Ga'ius and Aristar'chus, Macedo'nians who were Paul's companions in travel.

rsv@Acts:19:30 @ Paul wished to go in among the crowd, but the disciples would not let him;

rsv@Acts:19:32 @ Now some cried one thing, some another; for the assembly was in confusion, and most of them did not know why they had come together.

rsv@Acts:19:39 @ But if you seek anything further, it shall be settled in the regular assembly.

rsv@Acts:19:40 @ For we are in danger of being charged with rioting today, there being no cause that we can give to justify this commotion."

rsv@Acts:20:6 @ but we sailed away from Philip'pi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days we came to them at Tro'as, where we stayed for seven days.

rsv@Acts:20:8 @ There were many lights in the upper chamber where we were gathered.

rsv@Acts:20:9 @ And a young man named Eu'tychus was sitting in the window. He sank into a deep sleep as Paul talked still longer; and being overcome by sleep, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead.

rsv@Acts:20:10 @ But Paul went down and bent over him, and embracing him said, "Do not be alarmed, for his life is in him."

rsv@Acts:20:16 @ For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he might not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hastening to be at Jerusalem, if possible, on the day of Pentecost.

rsv@Acts:20:18 @ And when they came to him, he said to them: "You yourselves know how I lived among you all the time from the first day that I set foot in Asia,

rsv@Acts:21:24 @ take these men and purify yourself along with them and pay their expenses, so that they may shave their heads. Thus all will know that there is nothing in what they have been told about you but that you yourself live in observance of the law.

rsv@Acts:21:27 @ When the seven days were almost completed, the Jews from Asia, who had seen him in the temple, stirred up all the crowd, and laid hands on him,

rsv@Acts:21:29 @ For they had previously seen Troph'imus the Ephesian with him in the city, and they supposed that Paul had brought him into the temple.

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

rsv@Acts:23:6 @ But when Paul perceived that one part were Sad'ducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, "Brethren, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees; with respect to the hope and the resurrection of the dead I am on trial."

rsv@Acts:23:9 @ Then a great clamor arose; and some of the scribes of the Pharisees' party stood up and contended, "We find nothing wrong in this man. What if a spirit or an angel spoke to him?"

rsv@Acts:23:10 @ And when the dissension became violent, the tribune, afraid that Paul would be torn in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them and bring him into the barracks.

rsv@Acts:23:21 @ But do not yield to them; for more than forty of their men lie in ambush for him, having bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink till they have killed him; and now they are ready, waiting for the promise from you."

rsv@Acts:23:35 @ he said, "I will hear you when your accusers arrive." And he commanded him to be guarded in Herod's praetorium.

rsv@Acts:24:3 @ in every way and everywhere we accept this with all gratitude.

rsv@Acts:24:4 @ But, to detain you no further, I beg you in your kindness to hear us briefly.

rsv@Acts:24:8 @ The Jews also joined in the charge, affirming that all this was so.

rsv@Acts:24:11 @ and they did not find me disputing with any one or stirring up a crowd, either in the temple or in the synagogues, or in the city.

rsv@Acts:24:13 @ But this I admit to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I worship the God of our fathers, believing everything laid down by the law or written in the prophets,

rsv@Acts:24:14 @ having a hope in God which these themselves accept, that there will be a resurrection of both the just and the unjust.

rsv@Acts:24:17 @ As I was doing this, they found me purified in the temple, without any crowd or tumult. But some Jews from Asia--

rsv@Acts:24:22 @ Then he gave orders to the centurion that he should be kept in custody but should have some liberty, and that none of his friends should be prevented from attending to his needs.

rsv@Acts:24:23 @ After some days Felix came with his wife Drusil'la, who was a Jewess; and he sent for Paul and heard him speak upon faith in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Acts:24:26 @ But when two years had elapsed, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus; and desiring to do the Jews a favor, Felix left Paul in prison.

rsv@Acts:25:8 @ Paul said in his defense, "Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I offended at all."

rsv@Acts:25:11 @ If then I am a wrongdoer, and have committed anything for which I deserve to die, I do not seek to escape death; but if there is nothing in their charges against me, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar."

rsv@Acts:25:18 @ When the accusers stood up, they brought no charge in his case of such evils as I supposed;

rsv@Acts:25:21 @ But when Paul had appealed to be kept in custody for the decision of the emperor, I commanded him to be held until I could send him to Caesar."

rsv@Acts:25:27 @ For it seems to me unreasonable, in sending a prisoner, not to indicate the charges against him."

rsv@Acts:26:6 @ And now I stand here on trial for hope in the promise made by God to our fathers,

rsv@Acts:26:9 @ "I myself was convinced that I ought to do many things in opposing the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

rsv@Acts:26:10 @ And I did so in Jerusalem; I not only shut up many of the saints in prison, by authority from the chief priests, but when they were put to death I cast my vote against them.

rsv@Acts:26:11 @ And I punished them often in all the synagogues and tried to make them blaspheme; and in raging fury against them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities.

rsv@Acts:26:14 @ And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, `Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? It hurts you to kick against the goads.'

rsv@Acts:26:16 @ But rise and stand upon your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you to serve and bear witness to the things in which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you,

rsv@Acts:26:18 @ to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'

rsv@Acts:26:21 @ For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple and tried to kill me.

rsv@Acts:26:26 @ For the king knows about these things, and to him I speak freely; for I am persuaded that none of these things has escaped his notice, for this was not done in a corner.

rsv@Acts:27:2 @ And embarking in a ship of Adramyt'tium, which was about to sail to the ports along the coast of Asia, we put to sea, accompanied by Aristar'chus, a Macedo'nian from Thessaloni'ca.

rsv@Acts:27:3 @ The next day we put in at Sidon; and Julius treated Paul kindly, and gave him leave to go to his friends and be cared for.

rsv@Acts:27:5 @ And when we had sailed across the sea which is off Cili'cia and Pamphyl'ia, we came to Myra in Ly'cia.

rsv@Acts:27:25 @ So take heart, men, for I have faith in God that it will be exactly as I have been told.

rsv@Acts:27:31 @ Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, "Unless these men stay in the ship, you cannot be saved."

rsv@Acts:27:33 @ As day was about to dawn, Paul urged them all to take some food, saying, "Today is the fourteenth day that you have continued in suspense and without food, having taken nothing.

rsv@Acts:27:35 @ And when he had said this, he took bread, and giving thanks to God in the presence of all he broke it and began to eat.

rsv@Acts:27:37 @ (We were in all two hundred and seventy-six persons in the ship.)

rsv@Acts:27:40 @ So they cast off the anchors and left them in the sea, at the same time loosening the ropes that tied the rudders; then hoisting the foresail to the wind they made for the beach.

rsv@Acts:28:7 @ Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us and entertained us hospitably for three days.

rsv@Acts:28:11 @ After three months we set sail in a ship which had wintered in the island, a ship of Alexandria, with the Twin Brothers as figurehead.

rsv@Acts:28:12 @ Putting in at Syracuse, we stayed there for three days.

rsv@Acts:28:18 @ When they had examined me, they wished to set me at liberty, because there was no reason for the death penalty in my case.

rsv@Acts:28:23 @ When they had appointed a day for him, they came to him at his lodging in great numbers. And he expounded the matter to them from morning till evening, testifying to the kingdom of God and trying to convince them about Jesus both from the law of Moses and from the prophets.

rsv@Acts:28:25 @ So, as they disagreed among themselves, they departed, after Paul had made one statement: "The Holy Spirit was right in saying to your fathers through Isaiah the prophet:

rsv@Romans:1:2 @ which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy scriptures,

rsv@Romans:1:4 @ and designated Son of God in power according to the Spirit of holiness by his resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,

rsv@Romans:1:7 @ To all God's beloved in Rome, who are called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Romans:1:8 @ First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world.

rsv@Romans:1:9 @ For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I mention you always in my prayers,

rsv@Romans:1:10 @ asking that somehow by God's will I may now at last succeed in coming to you.

rsv@Romans:1:13 @ I want you to know, brethren, that I have often intended to come to you (but thus far have been prevented), in order that I may reap some harvest among you as well as among the rest of the Gentiles.

rsv@Romans:1:15 @ so I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.

rsv@Romans:1:17 @ For in it the righteousness of God is revealed through faith for faith; as it is written, "He who through faith is righteous shall live."

rsv@Romans:1:20 @ Ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, namely, his eternal power and deity, has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse;

rsv@Romans:1:21 @ for although they knew God they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking and their senseless minds were darkened.

rsv@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves,

rsv@Romans:1:27 @ and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in their own persons the due penalty for their error.

rsv@Romans:2:1 @ Therefore you have no excuse, O man, whoever you are, when you judge another; for in passing judgment upon him you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things.

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

rsv@Romans:2:18 @ and know his will and approve what is excellent, because you are instructed in the law,

rsv@Romans:2:19 @ and if you are sure that you are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,

rsv@Romans:2:20 @ a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of children, having in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth--

rsv@Romans:2:23 @ You who boast in the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law?

rsv@Romans:3:2 @ Much in every way. To begin with, the Jews are entrusted with the oracles of God.

rsv@Romans:3:4 @ By no means! Let God be true though every man be false, as it is written, "That thou mayest be justified in thy words, and prevail when thou art judged."

rsv@Romans:3:5 @ But if our wickedness serves to show the justice of God, what shall we say? That God is unjust to inflict wrath on us? (I speak in a human way.)

rsv@Romans:3:16 @ in their paths are ruin and misery,

rsv@Romans:3:20 @ For no human being will be justified in his sight by works of the law, since through the law comes knowledge of sin.

rsv@Romans:3:22 @ the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction;

rsv@Romans:3:24 @ they are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus,

rsv@Romans:3:25 @ whom God put forward as an expiation by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins;

rsv@Romans:3:26 @ it was to prove at the present time that he himself is righteous and that he justifies him who has faith in Jesus.

rsv@Romans:4:16 @ That is why it depends on faith, in order that the promise may rest on grace and be guaranteed to all his descendants-- not only to the adherents of the law but also to those who share the faith of Abraham, for he is the father of us all,

rsv@Romans:4:17 @ as it is written, "I have made you the father of many nations" --in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist.

rsv@Romans:4:18 @ In hope he believed against hope, that he should become the father of many nations; as he had been told, "So shall your descendants be."

rsv@Romans:4:19 @ He did not weaken in faith when he considered his own body, which was as good as dead because he was about a hundred years old, or when he considered the barrenness of Sarah's womb.

rsv@Romans:4:20 @ No distrust made him waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God,

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

rsv@Romans:5:2 @ Through him we have obtained access to this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in our hope of sharing the glory of God.

rsv@Romans:5:3 @ More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance,

rsv@Romans:5:8 @ But God shows his love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.

rsv@Romans:5:11 @ Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received our reconciliation.

rsv@Romans:5:13 @ sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law.

rsv@Romans:5:15 @ But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man's trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift in the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many.

rsv@Romans:5:17 @ If, because of one man's trespass, death reigned through that one man, much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.

rsv@Romans:5:21 @ so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

rsv@Romans:6:1 @ What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound?

rsv@Romans:6:2 @ By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it?

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

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

rsv@Romans:6:11 @ So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Romans:6:12 @ Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal bodies, to make you obey their passions.

rsv@Romans:6:19 @ I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once yielded your members to impurity and to greater and greater iniquity, so now yield your members to righteousness for sanctification.

rsv@Romans:6:20 @ When you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.

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

rsv@Romans:7:4 @ Likewise, my brethren, you have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead in order that we may bear fruit for God.

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

rsv@Romans:7:6 @ But now we are discharged from the law, dead to that which held us captive, so that we serve not under the old written code but in the new life of the Spirit.

rsv@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, finding opportunity in the commandment, wrought in me all kinds of covetousness. Apart from the law sin lies dead.

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

rsv@Romans:7:13 @ Did that which is good, then, bring death to me? By no means! It was sin, working death in me through what is good, in order that sin might be shown to be sin, and through the commandment might become sinful beyond measure.

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

rsv@Romans:7:22 @ For I delight in the law of God, in my inmost self,

rsv@Romans:7:23 @ but I see in my members another law at war with the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin which dwells in my members.

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

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

rsv@Romans:8:3 @ For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do: sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh,

rsv@Romans:8:4 @ in order that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

rsv@Romans:8:8 @ and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

rsv@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh, you are in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Any one who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.

rsv@Romans:8:10 @ But if Christ is in you, although your bodies are dead because of sin, your spirits are alive because of righteousness.

rsv@Romans:8:11 @ If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also through his Spirit which dwells in you.

rsv@Romans:8:17 @ and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.

rsv@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;

rsv@Romans:8:22 @ We know that the whole creation has been groaning in travail together until now;

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

rsv@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with sighs too deep for words.

rsv@Romans:8:28 @ We know that in everything God works for good with those who love him, who are called according to his purpose.

rsv@Romans:8:29 @ For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the first-born among many brethren.

rsv@Romans:8:37 @ No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

rsv@Romans:8:39 @ nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

rsv@Romans:9:1 @ I am speaking the truth in Christ, I am not lying; my conscience bears me witness in the Holy Spirit,

rsv@Romans:9:2 @ that I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart.

rsv@Romans:9:11 @ though they were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad, in order that God's purpose of election might continue, not because of works but because of his call,

rsv@Romans:9:17 @ For the scripture says to Pharaoh, "I have raised you up for the very purpose of showing my power in you, so that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth."

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

rsv@Romans:9:25 @ As indeed he says in Hose'a, "Those who were not my people I will call `my people,' and her who was not beloved I will call `my beloved.'"

rsv@Romans:9:26 @ "And in the very place where it was said to them, `You are not my people,' they will be called `sons of the living God.'"

rsv@Romans:9:31 @ but that Israel who pursued the righteousness which is based on law did not succeed in fulfilling that law.

rsv@Romans:9:33 @ as it is written, "Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone that will make men stumble, a rock that will make them fall; and he who believes in him will not be put to shame."

rsv@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness based on faith says, Do not say in your heart, "Who will ascend into heaven?" (that is, to bring Christ down)

rsv@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? The word is near you, on your lips and in your heart (that is, the word of faith which we preach);

rsv@Romans:10:9 @ because, if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

rsv@Romans:10:11 @ The scripture says, "No one who believes in him will be put to shame."

rsv@Romans:10:14 @ But how are men to call upon him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher?

rsv@Romans:11:14 @ in order to make my fellow Jews jealous, and thus save some of them.

rsv@Romans:11:17 @ But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, were grafted in their place to share the richness of the olive tree,

rsv@Romans:11:20 @ That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast only through faith. So do not become proud, but stand in awe.

rsv@Romans:11:22 @ Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness; otherwise you too will be cut off.

rsv@Romans:11:23 @ And even the others, if they do not persist in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God has the power to graft them in again.

rsv@Romans:11:25 @ Lest you be wise in your own conceits, I want you to understand this mystery, brethren: a hardening has come upon part of Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles come in,

rsv@Romans:11:31 @ so they have now been disobedient in order that by the mercy shown to you they also may receive mercy.

rsv@Romans:12:4 @ For as in one body we have many members, and all the members do not have the same function,

rsv@Romans:12:5 @ so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.

rsv@Romans:12:6 @ Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith;

rsv@Romans:12:7 @ if service, in our serving; he who teaches, in his teaching;

rsv@Romans:12:8 @ he who exhorts, in his exhortation; he who contributes, in liberality; he who gives aid, with zeal; he who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.

rsv@Romans:12:10 @ love one another with brotherly affection; outdo one another in showing honor.

rsv@Romans:12:11 @ Never flag in zeal, be aglow with the Spirit, serve the Lord.

rsv@Romans:12:12 @ Rejoice in your hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.

rsv@Romans:12:16 @ Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly; never be conceited.

rsv@Romans:12:17 @ Repay no one evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.

rsv@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of him who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval,

rsv@Romans:13:4 @ for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain; he is the servant of God to execute his wrath on the wrongdoer.

rsv@Romans:13:9 @ The commandments, "You shall not commit adultery, You shall not kill, You shall not steal, You shall not covet," and any other commandment, are summed up in this sentence, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

rsv@Romans:13:13 @ let us conduct ourselves becomingly as in the day, not in reveling and drunkenness, not in debauchery and licentiousness, not in quarreling and jealousy.

rsv@Romans:14:1 @ As for the man who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not for disputes over opinions.

rsv@Romans:14:5 @ One man esteems one day as better than another, while another man esteems all days alike. Let every one be fully convinced in his own mind.

rsv@Romans:14:6 @ He who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. He also who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while he who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God.

rsv@Romans:14:13 @ Then let us no more pass judgment on one another, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother.

rsv@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but it is unclean for any one who thinks it unclean.

rsv@Romans:14:15 @ If your brother is being injured by what you eat, you are no longer walking in love. Do not let what you eat cause the ruin of one for whom Christ died.

rsv@Romans:14:17 @ For the kingdom of God is not food and drink but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit;

rsv@Romans:15:4 @ For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that by steadfastness and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.

rsv@Romans:15:5 @ May the God of steadfastness and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus,

rsv@Romans:15:8 @ For I tell you that Christ became a servant to the circumcised to show God's truthfulness, in order to confirm the promises given to the patriarchs,

rsv@Romans:15:9 @ and in order that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, "Therefore I will praise thee among the Gentiles, and sing to thy name";

rsv@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

rsv@1Corinthians:1:15 @ lest any one should say that you were baptized in my name.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:27 @ but God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong,

rsv@1Corinthians:1:28 @ God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are,

rsv@1Corinthians:1:29 @ so that no human being might boast in the presence of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:30 @ He is the source of your life in Christ Jesus, whom God made our wisdom, our righteousness and sanctification and redemption;

rsv@1Corinthians:2:1 @ When I came to you, brethren, I did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God in lofty words or wisdom.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:3 @ And I was with you in weakness and in much fear and trembling;

rsv@1Corinthians:2:4 @ and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

rsv@1Corinthians:2:5 @ that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:11 @ For what person knows a man's thoughts except the spirit of the man which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:13 @ And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who possess the Spirit.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:1 @ But I, brethren, could not address you as spiritual men, but as men of the flesh, as babes in Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:16 @ Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you?

rsv@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:19 @ For the wisdom of this world is folly with God. For it is written, "He catches the wise in their craftiness,"

rsv@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then every man will receive his commendation from God.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:6 @ I have applied all this to myself and Apol'los for your benefit, brethren, that you may learn by us not to go beyond what is written, that none of you may be puffed up in favor of one against another.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who sees anything different in you? What have you that you did not receive? If then you received it, why do you boast as if it were not a gift?

rsv@1Corinthians:4:10 @ We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are held in honor, but we in disrepute.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:15 @ For though you have countless guides in Christ, you do not have many fathers. For I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:17 @ Therefore I sent to you Timothy, my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, to remind you of my ways in Christ, as I teach them everywhere in every church.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:20 @ For the kingdom of God does not consist in talk but in power.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:21 @ What do you wish? Shall I come to you with a rod, or with love in a spirit of gentleness?

rsv@1Corinthians:5:3 @ For though absent in body I am present in spirit, and as if present, I have already pronounced judgment

rsv@1Corinthians:5:4 @ in the name of the Lord Jesus on the man who has done such a thing. When you are assembled, and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus,

rsv@1Corinthians:5:5 @ you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with immoral men;

rsv@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:20 @ you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbelieving partner desires to separate, let it be so; in such a case the brother or sister is not bound. For God has called us to peace.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:17 @ Only, let every one lead the life which the Lord has assigned to him, and in which God has called him. This is my rule in all the churches.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:20 @ Every one should remain in the state in which he was called.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:22 @ For he who was called in the Lord as a slave is a freedman of the Lord. Likewise he who was free when called is a slave of Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:24 @ So, brethren, in whatever state each was called, there let him remain with God.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:26 @ I think that in view of the present distress it is well for a person to remain as he is.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:34 @ and his interests are divided. And the unmarried woman or girl is anxious about the affairs of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit; but the married woman is anxious about worldly affairs, how to please her husband.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:37 @ But whoever is firmly established in his heart, being under no necessity but having his desire under control, and has determined this in his heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:39 @ A wife is bound to her husband as long as he lives. If the husband dies, she is free to be married to whom she wishes, only in the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But in my judgment she is happier if she remains as she is. And I think that I have the Spirit of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For although there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth--as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords"--

rsv@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if any one sees you, a man of knowledge, at table in an idol's temple, might he not be encouraged, if his conscience is weak, to eat food offered to idols?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:1 @ Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are not you my workmanship in the Lord?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:2 @ If to others I am not an apostle, at least I am to you; for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:9 @ For it is written in the law of Moses, "You shall not muzzle an ox when it is treading out the grain." Is it for oxen that God is concerned?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Does he not speak entirely for our sake? It was written for our sake, because the plowman should plow in hope and the thresher thresh in hope of a share in the crop.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others share this rightful claim upon you, do not we still more? Nevertheless, we have not made use of this right, but we endure anything rather than put an obstacle in the way of the gospel of Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:13 @ Do you not know that those who are employed in the temple service get their food from the temple, and those who serve at the altar share in the sacrificial offerings?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:14 @ In the same way, the Lord commanded that those who proclaim the gospel should get their living by the gospel.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:18 @ What then is my reward? Just this: that in my preaching I may make the gospel free of charge, not making full use of my right in the gospel.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:20 @ To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews; to those under the law I became as one under the law--though not being myself under the law--that I might win those under the law.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:23 @ I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:24 @ Do you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:25 @ Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:2 @ and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea,

rsv@1Corinthians:10:5 @ Nevertheless with most of them God was not pleased; for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:8 @ We must not indulge in immorality as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in a single day.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:16 @ The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?

rsv@1Corinthians:10:18 @ Consider the people of Israel; are not those who eat the sacrifices partners in the altar?

rsv@1Corinthians:10:25 @ Eat whatever is sold in the meat market without raising any question on the ground of conscience.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:26 @ For "the earth is the Lord's, and everything in it."

rsv@1Corinthians:10:28 @ (But if some one says to you, "This has been offered in sacrifice," then out of consideration for the man who informed you, and for conscience' sake--

rsv@1Corinthians:10:33 @ just as I try to please all men in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:2 @ I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:11 @ (Nevertheless, in the Lord woman is not independent of man nor man of woman;

rsv@1Corinthians:11:17 @ But in the following instructions I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For, in the first place, when you assemble as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it,

rsv@1Corinthians:11:19 @ for there must be factions among you in order that those who are genuine among you may be recognized.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:21 @ For in eating, each one goes ahead with his own meal, and one is hungry and another is drunk.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I commend you in this? No, I will not.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:24 @ and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me."

rsv@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me."

rsv@1Corinthians:11:27 @ Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:6 @ and there are varieties of working, but it is the same God who inspires them all in every one.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But as it is, God arranged the organs in the body, each one of them, as he chose.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there may be no discord in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, then healers, helpers, administrators, speakers in various kinds of tongues.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:1 @ If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:6 @ it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall understand fully, even as I have been fully understood.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more to prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than he who speaks in tongues, unless some one interprets, so that the church may be edified.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ Now, brethren, if I come to you speaking in tongues, how shall I benefit you unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So with yourselves; if you in a tongue utter speech that is not intelligible, how will any one know what is said? For you will be speaking into the air.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:10 @ There are doubtless many different languages in the world, and none is without meaning;

rsv@1Corinthians:14:12 @ So with yourselves; since you are eager for manifestations of the Spirit, strive to excel in building up the church.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:13 @ Therefore, he who speaks in a tongue should pray for the power to interpret.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:14 @ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays but my mind is unfruitful.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how can any one in the position of an outsider say the "Amen" to your thanksgiving when he does not know what you are saying?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:18 @ I thank God that I speak in tongues more than you all;

rsv@1Corinthians:14:19 @ nevertheless, in church I would rather speak five words with my mind, in order to instruct others, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:20 @ Brethren, do not be children in your thinking; be babes in evil, but in thinking be mature.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the law it is written, "By men of strange tongues and by the lips of foreigners will I speak to this people, and even then they will not listen to me, says the Lord."

rsv@1Corinthians:14:23 @ If, therefore, the whole church assembles and all speak in tongues, and outsiders or unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are mad?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If any speak in a tongue, let there be only two or at most three, and each in turn; and let one interpret.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there is no one to interpret, let each of them keep silence in church and speak to himself and to God.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:33 @ For God is not a God of confusion but of peace. As in all the churches of the saints,

rsv@1Corinthians:14:34 @ the women should keep silence in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be subordinate, as even the law says.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:35 @ If there is anything they desire to know, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:39 @ So, my brethren, earnestly desire to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues;

rsv@1Corinthians:14:40 @ but all things should be done decently and in order.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:1 @ Now I would remind you, brethren, in what terms I preached to you the gospel, which you received, in which you stand,

rsv@1Corinthians:15:2 @ by which you are saved, if you hold it fast--unless you believed in vain.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures,

rsv@1Corinthians:15:4 @ that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures,

rsv@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God which is with me.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:14 @ if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:17 @ If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:18 @ Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:19 @ If for this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are of all men most to be pitied.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:22 @ For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:27 @ "For God has put all things in subjection under his feet." But when it says, "All things are put in subjection under him," it is plain that he is excepted who put all things under him.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:30 @ Why am I in peril every hour?

rsv@1Corinthians:15:31 @ I protest, brethren, by my pride in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die every day!

rsv@1Corinthians:15:41 @ There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for star differs from star in glory.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:43 @ It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:52 @ in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:54 @ When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: "Death is swallowed up in victory."

rsv@1Corinthians:15:58 @ Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:7 @ For I do not want to see you now just in passing; I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:8 @ But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost,

rsv@1Corinthians:16:11 @ So let no one despise him. Speed him on his way in peace, that he may return to me; for I am expecting him with the brethren.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:13 @ Be watchful, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:14 @ Let all that you do be done in love.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:15 @ Now, brethren, you know that the household of Steph'anas were the first converts in Acha'ia, and they have devoted themselves to the service of the saints;

rsv@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The churches of Asia send greetings. Aq'uila and Prisca, together with the church in their house, send you hearty greetings in the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:24 @ My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother. To the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in the whole of Acha'ia:

rsv@2Corinthians:1:4 @ who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:5 @ For as we share abundantly in Christ's sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:7 @ Our hope for you is unshaken; for we know that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in our comfort.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of the affliction we experienced in Asia; for we were so utterly, unbearably crushed that we despaired of life itself.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:11 @ You also must help us by prayer, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us in answer to many prayers.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For our boast is this, the testimony of our conscience that we have behaved in the world, and still more toward you, with holiness and godly sincerity, not by earthly wisdom but by the grace of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:14 @ as you have understood in part, that you can be proud of us as we can be of you, on the day of the Lord Jesus.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom we preached among you, Silva'nus and Timothy and I, was not Yes and No; but in him it is always Yes.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:20 @ For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why we utter the Amen through him, to the glory of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:21 @ But it is God who establishes us with you in Christ, and has commissioned us;

rsv@2Corinthians:1:22 @ he has put his seal upon us and given us his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we lord it over your faith; we work with you for your joy, for you stand firm in your faith.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if any one has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but in some measure--not to put it too severely-- to you all.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For this is why I wrote, that I might test you and know whether you are obedient in everything.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:10 @ Any one whom you forgive, I also forgive. What I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, has been for your sake in the presence of Christ,

rsv@2Corinthians:2:12 @ When I came to Tro'as to preach the gospel of Christ, a door was opened for me in the Lord;

rsv@2Corinthians:2:14 @ But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumph, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God's word; but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:6 @ who has made us competent to be ministers of a new covenant, not in a written code but in the Spirit; for the written code kills, but the Spirit gives life.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:7 @ Now if the dispensation of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such splendor that the Israelites could not look at Moses' face because of its brightness, fading as this was,

rsv@2Corinthians:3:9 @ For if there was splendor in the dispensation of condemnation, the dispensation of righteousness must far exceed it in splendor.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:10 @ Indeed, in this case, what once had splendor has come to have no splendor at all, because of the splendor that surpasses it.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:2 @ We have renounced disgraceful, underhanded ways; we refuse to practice cunning or to tamper with God's word, but by the open statement of the truth we would commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:4 @ In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the likeness of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:6 @ For it is the God who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:7 @ But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, to show that the transcendent power belongs to God and not to us.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:8 @ We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair;

rsv@2Corinthians:4:10 @ always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For while we live we are always being given up to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal flesh.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:12 @ So death is at work in us, but life in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:1 @ For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For while we are still in this tent, we sigh with anxiety; not that we would be unclothed, but that we would be further clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:6 @ So we are always of good courage; we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord,

rsv@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive good or evil, according to what he has done in the body.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:13 @ For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:17 @ Therefore, if any one is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:19 @ that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:21 @ For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:1 @ Working together with him, then, we entreat you not to accept the grace of God in vain.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:3 @ We put no obstacle in any one's way, so that no fault may be found with our ministry,

rsv@2Corinthians:6:4 @ but as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: through great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities,

rsv@2Corinthians:6:8 @ in honor and dishonor, in ill repute and good repute. We are treated as impostors, and yet are true;

rsv@2Corinthians:6:12 @ You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted in your own affections.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:13 @ In return--I speak as to children--widen your hearts also.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:15 @ What accord has Christ with Be'lial? Or what has a believer in common with an unbeliever?

rsv@2Corinthians:6:16 @ What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said, "I will live in them and move among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:1 @ Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, and make holiness perfect in the fear of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:3 @ I do not say this to condemn you, for I said before that you are in our hearts, to die together and to live together.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:4 @ I have great confidence in you; I have great pride in you; I am filled with comfort. With all our affliction, I am overjoyed.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not only by his coming but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you, as he told us of your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For see what earnestness this godly grief has produced in you, what eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what alarm, what longing, what zeal, what punishment! At every point you have proved yourselves guiltless in the matter.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:12 @ So although I wrote to you, it was not on account of the one who did the wrong, nor on account of the one who suffered the wrong, but in order that your zeal for us might be revealed to you in the sight of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if I have expressed to him some pride in you, I was not put to shame; but just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting before Titus has proved true.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:16 @ I rejoice, because I have perfect confidence in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:1 @ We want you to know, brethren, about the grace of God which has been shown in the churches of Macedo'nia,

rsv@2Corinthians:8:2 @ for in a severe test of affliction, their abundance of joy and their extreme poverty have overflowed in a wealth of liberality on their part.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:4 @ begging us earnestly for the favor of taking part in the relief of the saints--

rsv@2Corinthians:8:7 @ Now as you excel in everything--in faith, in utterance, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in your love for us--see that you excel in this gracious work also.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And in this matter I give my advice: it is best for you now to complete what a year ago you began not only to do but to desire,

rsv@2Corinthians:8:11 @ so that your readiness in desiring it may be matched by your completing it out of what you have.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only that, but he has been appointed by the churches to travel with us in this gracious work which we are carrying on, for the glory of the Lord and to show our good will.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:21 @ for we aim at what is honorable not only in the Lord's sight but also in the sight of men.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And with them we are sending our brother whom we have often tested and found earnest in many matters, but who is now more earnest than ever because of his great confidence in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:23 @ As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker in your service; and as for our brethren, they are messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:3 @ But I am sending the brethren so that our boasting about you may not prove vain in this case, so that you may be ready, as I said you would be;

rsv@2Corinthians:9:5 @ So I thought it necessary to urge the brethren to go on to you before me, and arrange in advance for this gift you have promised, so that it may be ready not as an exaction but as a willing gift.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:8 @ And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that you may always have enough of everything and may provide in abundance for every good work.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:11 @ You will be enriched in every way for great generosity, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God;

rsv@2Corinthians:9:12 @ for the rendering of this service not only supplies the wants of the saints but also overflows in many thanksgivings to God.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:13 @ Under the test of this service, you will glorify God by your obedience in acknowledging the gospel of Christ, and by the generosity of your contribution for them and for all others;

rsv@2Corinthians:9:14 @ while they long for you and pray for you, because of the surpassing grace of God in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I beg of you that when I am present I may not have to show boldness with such confidence as I count on showing against some who suspect us of acting in worldly fashion.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:3 @ For though we live in the world we are not carrying on a worldly war,

rsv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ We do not boast beyond limit, in other men's labors; but our hope is that as your faith increases, our field among you may be greatly enlarged,

rsv@2Corinthians:10:16 @ so that we may preach the gospel in lands beyond you, without boasting of work already done in another's field.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:1 @ I wish you would bear with me in a little foolishness. Do bear with me!

rsv@2Corinthians:11:5 @ I think that I am not in the least inferior to these superlative apostles.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:6 @ Even if I am unskilled in speaking, I am not in knowledge; in every way we have made this plain to you in all things.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Did I commit a sin in abasing myself so that you might be exalted, because I preached God's gospel without cost to you?

rsv@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I robbed other churches by accepting support from them in order to serve you.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was with you and was in want, I did not burden any one, for my needs were supplied by the brethren who came from Macedo'nia. So I refrained and will refrain from burdening you in any way.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:10 @ As the truth of Christ is in me, this boast of mine shall not be silenced in the regions of Acha'ia.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:12 @ And what I do I will continue to do, in order to undermine the claim of those who would like to claim that in their boasted mission they work on the same terms as we do.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:17 @ (What I am saying I say not with the Lord's authority but as a fool, in this boastful confidence;

rsv@2Corinthians:11:20 @ For you bear it if a man makes slaves of you, or preys upon you, or takes advantage of you, or puts on airs, or strikes you in the face.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:26 @ on frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, danger from robbers, danger from my own people, danger from Gentiles, danger in the city, danger in the wilderness, danger at sea, danger from false brethren;

rsv@2Corinthians:11:27 @ in toil and hardship, through many a sleepless night, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:32 @ At Damascus, the governor under King Ar'etas guarded the city of Damascus in order to seize me,

rsv@2Corinthians:11:33 @ but I was let down in a basket through a window in the wall, and escaped his hands.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:2 @ I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven--whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:3 @ And I know that this man was caught up into Paradise--whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows--

rsv@2Corinthians:12:6 @ Though if I wish to boast, I shall not be a fool, for I shall be speaking the truth. But I refrain from it, so that no one may think more of me than he sees in me or hears from me.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:7 @ And to keep me from being too elated by the abundance of revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan, to harass me, to keep me from being too elated.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:9 @ but he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." I will all the more gladly boast of my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:12 @ The signs of a true apostle were performed among you in all patience, with signs and wonders and mighty works.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For in what were you less favored than the rest of the churches, except that I myself did not burden you? Forgive me this wrong!

rsv@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I urged Titus to go, and sent the brother with him. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not act in the same spirit? Did we not take the same steps?

rsv@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves before you? It is in the sight of God that we have been speaking in Christ, and all for your upbuilding, beloved.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:3 @ since you desire proof that Christ is speaking in me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For he was crucified in weakness, but lives by the power of God. For we are weak in him, but in dealing with you we shall live with him by the power of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Examine yourselves, to see whether you are holding to your faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?--unless indeed you fail to meet the test!

rsv@2Corinthians:13:10 @ I write this while I am away from you, in order that when I come I may not have to be severe in my use of the authority which the Lord has given me for building up and not for tearing down.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brethren, farewell. Mend your ways, heed my appeal, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

rsv@Galatians:1:6 @ I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and turning to a different gospel--

rsv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God violently and tried to destroy it;

rsv@Galatians:1:14 @ and I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people, so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers.

rsv@Galatians:1:16 @ was pleased to reveal his Son to me, in order that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not confer with flesh and blood,

rsv@Galatians:1:22 @ And I was still not known by sight to the churches of Christ in Judea;

rsv@Galatians:2:2 @ I went up by revelation; and I laid before them (but privately before those who were of repute) the gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, lest somehow I should be running or had run in vain.

rsv@Galatians:2:4 @ But because of false brethren secretly brought in, who slipped in to spy out our freedom which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage--

rsv@Galatians:2:16 @ yet who know that a man is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ, and not by works of the law, because by works of the law shall no one be justified.

rsv@Galatians:2:17 @ But if, in our endeavor to be justified in Christ, we ourselves were found to be sinners, is Christ then an agent of sin? Certainly not!

rsv@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

rsv@Galatians:3:4 @ Did you experience so many things in vain?--if it really is in vain.

rsv@Galatians:3:10 @ For all who rely on works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, "Cursed be every one who does not abide by all things written in the book of the law, and do them."

rsv@Galatians:3:14 @ that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

rsv@Galatians:3:22 @ But the scripture consigned all things to sin, that what was promised to faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

rsv@Galatians:3:26 @ for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith.

rsv@Galatians:3:28 @ There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Galatians:4:8 @ Formerly, when you did not know God, you were in bondage to beings that by nature are no gods;

rsv@Galatians:4:11 @ I am afraid I have labored over you in vain.

rsv@Galatians:4:19 @ My little children, with whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you!

rsv@Galatians:4:25 @ Now Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia; she corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children.

rsv@Galatians:4:27 @ For it is written, "Rejoice, O barren one who does not bear; break forth and shout, you who are not in travail; for the children of the desolate one are many more than the children of her that is married."

rsv@Galatians:5:6 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love.

rsv@Galatians:5:10 @ I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view than mine; and he who is troubling you will bear his judgment, whoever he is.

rsv@Galatians:5:11 @...am I still persecuted? In that...

rsv@Galatians:5:14 @ For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

rsv@Galatians:6:1 @ Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Look to yourself, lest you too be tempted.

rsv@Galatians:6:4 @ But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor.

rsv@Galatians:6:9 @ And let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not lose heart.

rsv@Galatians:6:12 @ It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh that would compel you to be circumcised, and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:6:13 @ For even those who receive circumcision do not themselves keep the law, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may glory in your flesh.

rsv@Galatians:6:14 @ But far be it from me to glory except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

rsv@Ephesians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints who are also faithful in Christ Jesus:

rsv@Ephesians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places,

rsv@Ephesians:1:4 @ even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him.

rsv@Ephesians:1:5 @ He destined us in love to be his sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,

rsv@Ephesians:1:6 @ to the praise of his glorious grace which he freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.

rsv@Ephesians:1:7 @ In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace

rsv@Ephesians:1:9 @ For he has made known to us in all wisdom and insight the mystery of his will, according to his purpose which he set forth in Christ

rsv@Ephesians:1:10 @ as a plan for the fulness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.

rsv@Ephesians:1:11 @ In him, according to the purpose of him who accomplishes all things according to the counsel of his will,

rsv@Ephesians:1:12 @ we who first hoped in Christ have been destined and appointed to live for the praise of his glory.

rsv@Ephesians:1:13 @ In him you also, who have heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and have believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,

rsv@Ephesians:1:15 @ For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints,

rsv@Ephesians:1:16 @ I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers,

rsv@Ephesians:1:17 @ that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him,

rsv@Ephesians:1:18 @ having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints,

rsv@Ephesians:1:19 @ and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power in us who believe, according to the working of his great might

rsv@Ephesians:1:20 @ which he accomplished in Christ when he raised him from the dead and made him sit at his right hand in the heavenly places,

rsv@Ephesians:1:21 @ far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come;

rsv@Ephesians:1:23 @ which is his body, the fulness of him who fills all in all.

rsv@Ephesians:2:2 @ in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience.

rsv@Ephesians:2:3 @ Among these we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, following the desires of body and mind, and so we were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.

rsv@Ephesians:2:4 @ But God, who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which he loved us,

rsv@Ephesians:2:6 @ and raised us up with him, and made us sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,

rsv@Ephesians:2:7 @ that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Ephesians:2:10 @ For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

rsv@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called the uncircumcision by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands--

rsv@Ephesians:2:12 @ remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

rsv@Ephesians:2:13 @ But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near in the blood of Christ.

rsv@Ephesians:2:15 @ by abolishing in his flesh the law of commandments and ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace,

rsv@Ephesians:2:16 @ and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby bringing the hostility to an end.

rsv@Ephesians:2:18 @ for through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.

rsv@Ephesians:2:21 @ in whom the whole structure is joined together and grows into a holy temple in the Lord;

rsv@Ephesians:2:22 @ in whom you also are built into it for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

rsv@Ephesians:3:5 @ which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;

rsv@Ephesians:3:6 @ that is, how the Gentiles are fellow heirs, members of the same body, and partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

rsv@Ephesians:3:9 @ and to make all men see what is the plan of the mystery hidden for ages in God who created all things;

rsv@Ephesians:3:10 @ that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places.

rsv@Ephesians:3:11 @ This was according to the eternal purpose which he has realized in Christ Jesus our Lord,

rsv@Ephesians:3:12 @ in whom we have boldness and confidence of access through our faith in him.

rsv@Ephesians:3:15 @ from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,

rsv@Ephesians:3:21 @ to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@Ephesians:4:2 @ with all lowliness and meekness, with patience, forbearing one another in love,

rsv@Ephesians:4:3 @ eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

rsv@Ephesians:4:6 @ one God and Father of us all, who is above all and through all and in all.

rsv@Ephesians:4:14 @ so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the cunning of men, by their craftiness in deceitful wiles.

rsv@Ephesians:4:15 @ Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,

rsv@Ephesians:4:16 @ from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by every joint with which it is supplied, when each part is working properly, makes bodily growth and upbuilds itself in love.

rsv@Ephesians:4:17 @ Now this I affirm and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds;

rsv@Ephesians:4:18 @ they are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart;

rsv@Ephesians:4:21 @ assuming that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus.

rsv@Ephesians:4:23 @ and be renewed in the spirit of your minds,

rsv@Ephesians:4:24 @ and put on the new nature, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.

rsv@Ephesians:4:28 @ Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his hands, so that he may be able to give to those in need.

rsv@Ephesians:4:30 @ And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

rsv@Ephesians:4:32 @ and be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

rsv@Ephesians:5:2 @ And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

rsv@Ephesians:5:5 @ Be sure of this, that no fornicator or impure man, or one who is covetous (that is, an idolater), has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

rsv@Ephesians:5:8 @ for once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of light

rsv@Ephesians:5:9 @ (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true),

rsv@Ephesians:5:11 @ Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.

rsv@Ephesians:5:12 @ For it is a shame even to speak of the things that they do in secret;

rsv@Ephesians:5:19 @ addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with all your heart,

rsv@Ephesians:5:20 @ always and for everything giving thanks in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God the Father.

rsv@Ephesians:5:24 @ As the church is subject to Christ, so let wives also be subject in everything to their husbands.

rsv@Ephesians:5:27 @ that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.

rsv@Ephesians:6:1 @ Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.

rsv@Ephesians:6:4 @ Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

rsv@Ephesians:6:5 @ Slaves, be obedient to those who are your earthly masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of heart, as to Christ;

rsv@Ephesians:6:6 @ not in the way of eye-service, as men-pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,

rsv@Ephesians:6:10 @ Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.

rsv@Ephesians:6:12 @ For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

rsv@Ephesians:6:13 @ Therefore take the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

rsv@Ephesians:6:18 @ Pray at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints,

rsv@Ephesians:6:20 @ for which I am an ambassador in chains; that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.

rsv@Ephesians:6:21 @ Now that you also may know how I am and what I am doing, Tych'icus the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord will tell you everything.

rsv@Philippians:1:1 @ Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philip'pi, with the bishops and deacons:

rsv@Philippians:1:3 @ I thank my God in all my remembrance of you,

rsv@Philippians:1:5 @ thankful for your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now.

rsv@Philippians:1:6 @ And I am sure that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

rsv@Philippians:1:7 @ It is right for me to feel thus about you all, because I hold you in my heart, for you are all partakers with me of grace, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel.

rsv@Philippians:1:14 @ and most of the brethren have been made confident in the Lord because of my imprisonment, and are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear.

rsv@Philippians:1:17 @ the former proclaim Christ out of partisanship, not sincerely but thinking to afflict me in my imprisonment.

rsv@Philippians:1:18 @ What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and in that I rejoice.

rsv@Philippians:1:20 @ as it is my eager expectation and hope that I shall not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death.

rsv@Philippians:1:22 @ If it is to be life in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell.

rsv@Philippians:1:24 @ But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account.

rsv@Philippians:1:25 @ Convinced of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith,

rsv@Philippians:1:26 @ so that in me you may have ample cause to glory in Christ Jesus, because of my coming to you again.

rsv@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you stand firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel,

rsv@Philippians:1:28 @ and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear omen to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God.

rsv@Philippians:1:29 @ For it has been granted to you that for the sake of Christ you should not only believe in him but also suffer for his sake,

rsv@Philippians:1:30 @ engaged in the same conflict which you saw and now hear to be mine.

rsv@Philippians:2:1 @ So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any incentive of love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy,

rsv@Philippians:2:2 @ complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind.

rsv@Philippians:2:3 @ Do nothing from selfishness or conceit, but in humility count others better than yourselves.

rsv@Philippians:2:5 @ Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,

rsv@Philippians:2:6 @ who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,

rsv@Philippians:2:7 @ but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.

rsv@Philippians:2:10 @ that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

rsv@Philippians:2:12 @ Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;

rsv@Philippians:2:13 @ for God is at work in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.

rsv@Philippians:2:15 @ that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,

rsv@Philippians:2:16 @ holding fast the word of life, so that in the day of Christ I may be proud that I did not run in vain or labor in vain.

rsv@Philippians:2:19 @ I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, so that I may be cheered by news of you.

rsv@Philippians:2:22 @ But Timothy's worth you know, how as a son with a father he has served with me in the gospel.

rsv@Philippians:2:24 @ and I trust in the Lord that shortly I myself shall come also.

rsv@Philippians:2:29 @ So receive him in the Lord with all joy; and honor such men,

rsv@Philippians:3:1 @ Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is not irksome to me, and is safe for you.

rsv@Philippians:3:3 @ For we are the true circumcision, who worship God in spirit, and glory in Christ Jesus, and put no confidence in the flesh.

rsv@Philippians:3:4 @ Though I myself have reason for confidence in the flesh also. If any other man thinks he has reason for confidence in the flesh, I have more:

rsv@Philippians:3:8 @ Indeed I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as refuse, in order that I may gain Christ

rsv@Philippians:3:9 @ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, based on law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith;

rsv@Philippians:3:10 @ that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death,

rsv@Philippians:3:14 @ I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Philippians:3:15 @ Let those of us who are mature be thus minded; and if in anything you are otherwise minded, God will reveal that also to you.

rsv@Philippians:3:17 @ Brethren, join in imitating me, and mark those who so live as you have an example in us.

rsv@Philippians:3:19 @ Their end is destruction, their god is the belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things.

rsv@Philippians:3:20 @ But our commonwealth is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,

rsv@Philippians:4:1 @ Therefore, my brethren, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, stand firm thus in the Lord, my beloved.

rsv@Philippians:4:2 @ I entreat Eu-o'dia and I entreat Syn'tyche to agree in the Lord.

rsv@Philippians:4:3 @ And I ask you also, true yokefellow, help these women, for they have labored side by side with me in the gospel together with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.

rsv@Philippians:4:4 @ Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice.

rsv@Philippians:4:6 @ Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

rsv@Philippians:4:7 @ And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Philippians:4:9 @ What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, do; and the God of peace will be with you.

rsv@Philippians:4:10 @ I rejoice in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me; you were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity.

rsv@Philippians:4:11 @ Not that I complain of want; for I have learned, in whatever state I am, to be content.

rsv@Philippians:4:12 @ I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound; in any and all circumstances I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and want.

rsv@Philippians:4:13 @ I can do all things in him who strengthens me.

rsv@Philippians:4:15 @ And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedo'nia, no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving except you only;

rsv@Philippians:4:16 @ for even in Thessaloni'ca you sent me help once and again.

rsv@Philippians:4:19 @ And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Colossians:1:2 @ To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ at Colos'sae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.

rsv@Colossians:1:4 @ because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you have for all the saints,

rsv@Colossians:1:5 @ because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. Of this you have heard before in the word of the truth, the gospel

rsv@Colossians:1:6 @ which has come to you, as indeed in the whole world it is bearing fruit and growing--so among yourselves, from the day you heard and understood the grace of God in truth,

rsv@Colossians:1:8 @ and has made known to us your love in the Spirit.

rsv@Colossians:1:9 @ And so, from the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,

rsv@Colossians:1:10 @ to lead a life worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.

rsv@Colossians:1:12 @ giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in light.

rsv@Colossians:1:14 @ in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

rsv@Colossians:1:16 @ for in him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or authorities--all things were created through him and for him.

rsv@Colossians:1:17 @ He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

rsv@Colossians:1:18 @ He is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the first-born from the dead, that in everything he might be pre-eminent.

rsv@Colossians:1:19 @ For in him all the fulness of God was pleased to dwell,

rsv@Colossians:1:20 @ and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross.

rsv@Colossians:1:21 @ And you, who once were estranged and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds,

rsv@Colossians:1:22 @ he has now reconciled in his body of flesh by his death, in order to present you holy and blameless and irreproachable before him,

rsv@Colossians:1:23 @ provided that you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which has been preached to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a minister.

rsv@Colossians:1:24 @ Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I complete what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church,

rsv@Colossians:1:27 @ To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

rsv@Colossians:1:28 @ Him we proclaim, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man mature in Christ.

rsv@Colossians:2:2 @ that their hearts may be encouraged as they are knit together in love, to have all the riches of assured understanding and the knowledge of God's mystery, of Christ,

rsv@Colossians:2:3 @ in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

rsv@Colossians:2:4 @ I say this in order that no one may delude you with beguiling speech.

rsv@Colossians:2:5 @ For though I am absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and the firmness of your faith in Christ.

rsv@Colossians:2:6 @ As therefore you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so live in him,

rsv@Colossians:2:7 @ rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.

rsv@Colossians:2:9 @ For in him the whole fulness of deity dwells bodily,

rsv@Colossians:2:10 @ and you have come to fulness of life in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.

rsv@Colossians:2:11 @ In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of flesh in the circumcision of Christ;

rsv@Colossians:2:12 @ and you were buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.

rsv@Colossians:2:13 @ And you, who were dead in trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,

rsv@Colossians:2:15 @ He disarmed the principalities and powers and made a public example of them, triumphing over them in him.

rsv@Colossians:2:16 @ Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a sabbath.

rsv@Colossians:2:23 @ These have indeed an appearance of wisdom in promoting rigor of devotion and self-abasement and severity to the body, but they are of no value in checking the indulgence of the flesh.

rsv@Colossians:3:3 @ For you have died, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

rsv@Colossians:3:4 @ When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

rsv@Colossians:3:5 @ Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: fornication, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

rsv@Colossians:3:7 @ In these you once walked, when you lived in them.

rsv@Colossians:3:10 @ and have put on the new nature, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.

rsv@Colossians:3:11 @ Here there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scyth'ian, slave, free man, but Christ is all, and in all.

rsv@Colossians:3:14 @ And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.

rsv@Colossians:3:15 @ And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful.

rsv@Colossians:3:16 @ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teach and admonish one another in all wisdom, and sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

rsv@Colossians:3:17 @ And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

rsv@Colossians:3:18 @ Wives, be subject to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:3:20 @ Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:3:22 @ Slaves, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:4:1 @ Masters, treat your slaves justly and fairly, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.

rsv@Colossians:4:2 @ Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving;

rsv@Colossians:4:3 @ and pray for us also, that God may open to us a door for the word, to declare the mystery of Christ, on account of which I am in prison,

rsv@Colossians:4:7 @ Tych'icus will tell you all about my affairs; he is a beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:4:12 @ Ep'aphras, who is one of yourselves, a servant of Christ Jesus, greets you, always remembering you earnestly in his prayers, that you may stand mature and fully assured in all the will of God.

rsv@Colossians:4:13 @ For I bear him witness that he has worked hard for you and for those in La-odice'a and in Hi-erap'olis.

rsv@Colossians:4:15 @ Give my greetings to the brethren at La-odice'a, and to Nympha and the church in her house.

rsv@Colossians:4:16 @ And when this letter has been read among you, have it read also in the church of the La-odice'ans; and see that you read also the letter from La-odice'a.

rsv@Colossians:4:17 @ And say to Archip'pus, "See that you fulfil the ministry which you have received in the Lord."

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, Silva'nus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalo'nians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:2 @ We give thanks to God always for you all, constantly mentioning you in our prayers,

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:3 @ remembering before our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ for our gospel came to you not only in word, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction. You know what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, for you received the word in much affliction, with joy inspired by the Holy Spirit;

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ so that you became an example to all the believers in Macedo'nia and in Acha'ia.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For not only has the word of the Lord sounded forth from you in Macedo'nia and Acha'ia, but your faith in God has gone forth everywhere, so that we need not say anything.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:1 @ For you yourselves know, brethren, that our visit to you was not in vain;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ but though we had already suffered and been shamefully treated at Philip'pi, as you know, we had courage in our God to declare to you the gospel of God in the face of great opposition.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus which are in Judea; for you suffered the same things from your own countrymen as they did from the Jews,

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But since we were bereft of you, brethren, for a short time, in person not in heart, we endeavored the more eagerly and with great desire to see you face to face;

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ and we sent Timothy, our brother and God's servant in the gospel of Christ, to establish you in your faith and to exhort you,

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this reason, when I could bear it no longer, I sent that I might know your faith, for fear that somehow the tempter had tempted you and that our labor would be in vain.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ for this reason, brethren, in all our distress and affliction we have been comforted about you through your faith;

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:8 @ for now we live, if you stand fast in the Lord.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ praying earnestly night and day that we may see you face to face and supply what is lacking in your faith?

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:12 @ and may the Lord make you increase and abound in love to one another and to all men, as we do to you,

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ so that he may establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ Finally, brethren, we beseech and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you learned from us how you ought to live and to please God, just as you are doing, you do so more and more.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:4 @ that each one of you know how to take a wife for himself in holiness and honor,

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:5 @ not in the passion of lust like heathen who do not know God;

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ that no man transgress, and wrong his brother in this matter, because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as we solemnly forewarned you.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:7 @ For God has not called us for uncleanness, but in holiness.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the archangel's call, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first;

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ then we who are alive, who are left, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so we shall always be with the Lord.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:4 @ But you are not in darkness, brethren, for that day to surprise you like a thief.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:12 @ But we beseech you, brethren, to respect those who labor among you and are over you in the Lord and admonish you,

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:13 @ and to esteem them very highly in love because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:18 @ give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, Silva'nus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalo'nians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ and to grant rest with us to you who are afflicted, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire,

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when he comes on that day to be glorified in his saints, and to be marveled at in all who have believed, because our testimony to you was believed.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:12 @ so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be quickly shaken in mind or excited, either by spirit or by word, or by letter purporting to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one deceive you in any way; for that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of perdition,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:4 @ who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:6 @ And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ so that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:17 @ comfort your hearts and establish them in every good work and word.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:4 @ And we have confidence in the Lord about you, that you are doing and will do the things which we command.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ It was not because we have not that right, but to give you in our conduct an example to imitate.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear that some of you are living in idleness, mere busybodies, not doing any work.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:12 @ Now such persons we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ to do their work in quietness and to earn their own living.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:13 @ Brethren, do not be weary in well-doing.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:14 @ If any one refuses to obey what we say in this letter, note that man, and have nothing to do with him, that he may be ashamed.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you all.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:17 @ I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. This is the mark in every letter of mine; it is the way I write.

rsv@1Timothy:1:13 @ though I formerly blasphemed and persecuted and insulted him; but I received mercy because I had acted ignorantly in unbelief,

rsv@1Timothy:1:14 @ and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

rsv@1Timothy:1:16 @ but I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience for an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life.

rsv@1Timothy:2:3 @ This is good, and it is acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,

rsv@1Timothy:2:7 @ For this I was appointed a preacher and apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

rsv@Hebrews:2:12 @ saying, "I will proclaim thy name to my brethren, in the midst of the congregation I will praise thee."

rsv@Hebrews:2:13 @ And again, "I will put my trust in him." And again, "Here am I, and the children God has given me."

rsv@Hebrews:2:14 @ Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same nature, that through death he might destroy him who has the power of death, that is, the devil,

rsv@Hebrews:2:17 @ Therefore he had to be made like his brethren in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make expiation for the sins of the people.

rsv@Hebrews:3:1 @ Therefore, holy brethren, who share in a heavenly call, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession.

rsv@Hebrews:3:2 @ He was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in God's house.

rsv@Hebrews:3:5 @ Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later,

rsv@Hebrews:3:6 @ but Christ was faithful over God's house as a son. And we are his house if we hold fast our confidence and pride in our hope.

rsv@Hebrews:3:8 @ do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness,

rsv@Hebrews:3:10 @ Therefore I was provoked with that generation, and said, `They always go astray in their hearts; they have not known my ways.'

rsv@Hebrews:3:11 @ As I swore in my wrath, `They shall never enter my rest.'"

rsv@Hebrews:3:12 @ Take care, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God.

rsv@Hebrews:3:14 @ For we share in Christ, if only we hold our first confidence firm to the end,

rsv@Hebrews:3:15 @ while it is said, "Today, when you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion."

rsv@Hebrews:3:17 @ And with whom was he provoked forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

rsv@Hebrews:4:2 @ For good news came to us just as to them; but the message which they heard did not benefit them, because it did not meet with faith in the hearers.

rsv@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we who have believed enter that rest, as he has said, "As I swore in my wrath, `They shall never enter my rest,'" although his works were finished from the foundation of the world.

rsv@Hebrews:4:4 @ For he has somewhere spoken of the seventh day in this way, "And God rested on the seventh day from all his works."

rsv@Hebrews:4:5 @ And again in this place he said, "They shall never enter my rest."

rsv@Hebrews:4:7 @ again he sets a certain day, "Today," saying through David so long afterward, in the words already quoted, "Today, when you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts."

rsv@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we have not a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.

rsv@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

rsv@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to act on behalf of men in relation to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.

rsv@Hebrews:5:6 @ as he says also in another place, "Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchiz'edek."

rsv@Hebrews:5:7 @ In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to him who was able to save him from death, and he was heard for his godly fear.

rsv@Hebrews:5:13 @ for every one who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a child.

rsv@Hebrews:6:9 @ Though we speak thus, yet in your case, beloved, we feel sure of better things that belong to salvation.

rsv@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not so unjust as to overlook your work and the love which you showed for his sake in serving the saints, as you still do.

rsv@Hebrews:6:11 @ And we desire each one of you to show the same earnestness in realizing the full assurance of hope until the end,

rsv@Hebrews:6:16 @ Men indeed swear by a greater than themselves, and in all their disputes an oath is final for confirmation.

rsv@Hebrews:6:18 @ so that through two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible that God should prove false, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to seize the hope set before us.

rsv@Hebrews:7:5 @ And those descendants of Levi who receive the priestly office have a commandment in the law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brethren, though these also are descended from Abraham.

rsv@Hebrews:7:10 @ for he was still in the loins of his ancestor when Melchiz'edek met him.

rsv@Hebrews:7:12 @ For when there is a change in the priesthood, there is necessarily a change in the law as well.

rsv@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.

rsv@Hebrews:7:15 @ This becomes even more evident when another priest arises in the likeness of Melchiz'edek,

rsv@Hebrews:7:23 @ The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office;

rsv@Hebrews:7:28 @ Indeed, the law appoints men in their weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been made perfect for ever.

rsv@Hebrews:8:1 @ Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven,

rsv@Hebrews:8:2 @ a minister in the sanctuary and the true tent which is set up not by man but by the Lord.

rsv@Hebrews:8:9 @ not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they did not continue in my covenant, and so I paid no heed to them, says the Lord.

rsv@Hebrews:8:13 @ In speaking of a new covenant he treats the first as obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.

rsv@Hebrews:9:2 @ For a tent was prepared, the outer one, in which were the lampstand and the table and the bread of the Presence; it is called the Holy Place.

rsv@Hebrews:9:5 @ above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.

rsv@Hebrews:9:17 @ For a will takes effect only at death, since it is not in force as long as the one who made it is alive.

rsv@Hebrews:9:21 @ And in the same way he sprinkled with the blood both the tent and all the vessels used in worship.

rsv@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ has entered, not into a sanctuary made with hands, a copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf.

rsv@Hebrews:10:3 @ But in these sacrifices there is a reminder of sin year after year.

rsv@Hebrews:10:6 @ in burnt offerings and sin offerings thou hast taken no pleasure.

rsv@Hebrews:10:7 @ Then I said, `Lo, I have come to do thy will, O God,' as it is written of me in the roll of the book."

rsv@Hebrews:10:8 @ When he said above, "Thou hast neither desired nor taken pleasure in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings" (these are offered according to the law),

rsv@Hebrews:10:9 @ then he added, "Lo, I have come to do thy will." He abolishes the first in order to establish the second.

rsv@Hebrews:10:22 @ let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

rsv@Hebrews:10:38 @ but my righteous one shall live by faith, and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him."

rsv@Hebrews:11:9 @ By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a foreign land, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, heirs with him of the same promise.

rsv@Hebrews:11:13 @ These all died in faith, not having received what was promised, but having seen it and greeted it from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.

rsv@Hebrews:11:21 @ By faith Jacob, when dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, bowing in worship over the head of his staff.

rsv@Hebrews:11:34 @ quenched raging fire, escaped the edge of the sword, won strength out of weakness, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight.

rsv@Hebrews:11:37 @ They were stoned, they were sawn in two, they were killed with the sword; they went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, afflicted, ill-treated--

rsv@Hebrews:11:38 @ of whom the world was not worthy-- wandering over deserts and mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth.

rsv@Hebrews:12:4 @ In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.

rsv@Hebrews:12:8 @ If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.

rsv@Hebrews:12:22 @ But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering,

rsv@Hebrews:12:23 @ and to the assembly of the first-born who are enrolled in heaven, and to a judge who is God of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

rsv@Hebrews:12:27 @ This phrase, "Yet once more," indicates the removal of what is shaken, as of what has been made, in order that what cannot be shaken may remain.

rsv@Hebrews:13:3 @ Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them; and those who are ill-treated, since you also are in the body.

rsv@Hebrews:13:4 @ Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled; for God will judge the immoral and adulterous.

rsv@Hebrews:13:12 @ So Jesus also suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people through his own blood.

rsv@Hebrews:13:18 @ Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a clear conscience, desiring to act honorably in all things.

rsv@Hebrews:13:19 @ I urge you the more earnestly to do this in order that I may be restored to you the sooner.

rsv@Hebrews:13:21 @ equip you with everything good that you may do his will, working in you that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@James:1:1 @ James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion: Greeting.

rsv@James:1:4 @ And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

rsv@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

rsv@James:1:7 @ For that person must not suppose that a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways, will receive anything from the Lord.

rsv@James:1:8 @ Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation,

rsv@James:1:10 @ and the rich in his humiliation, because like the flower of the grass he will pass away.

rsv@James:1:11 @ For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.

rsv@James:1:23 @ For if any one is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who observes his natural face in a mirror;

rsv@James:1:25 @ But he who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer that forgets but a doer that acts, he shall be blessed in his doing.

rsv@James:1:27 @ Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.

rsv@James:2:2 @ For if a man with gold rings and in fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in,

rsv@James:2:5 @ Listen, my beloved brethren. Has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to those who love him?

rsv@James:2:10 @ For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it.

rsv@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister is ill-clad and in lack of daily food,

rsv@James:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled," without giving them the things needed for the body, what does it profit?

rsv@James:2:25 @ And in the same way was not also Rahab the harlot justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

rsv@James:3:2 @ For we all make many mistakes, and if any one makes no mistakes in what he says he is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also.

rsv@James:3:9 @ With it we bless the Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who are made in the likeness of God.

rsv@James:3:13 @ Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good life let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom.

rsv@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth.

rsv@James:3:18 @ And the harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

rsv@James:4:1 @ What causes wars, and what causes fightings among you? Is it not your passions that are at war in your members?

rsv@James:4:5 @ Or do you suppose it is in vain that the scripture says, "He yearns jealously over the spirit which he has made to dwell in us"?

rsv@James:4:16 @ As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.

rsv@James:5:5 @ You have lived on the earth in luxury and in pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.

rsv@James:5:10 @ As an example of suffering and patience, brethren, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.

rsv@James:5:14 @ Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;

rsv@James:5:16 @ Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects.

rsv@1Peter:1:1 @ Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To the exiles of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappado'cia, Asia, and Bithyn'ia,

rsv@1Peter:1:4 @ and to an inheritance which is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you,

rsv@1Peter:1:5 @ who by God's power are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

rsv@1Peter:1:6 @ In this you rejoice, though now for a little while you may have to suffer various trials,

rsv@1Peter:1:8 @ Without having seen him you love him; though you do not now see him you believe in him and rejoice with unutterable and exalted joy.

rsv@1Peter:1:12 @ It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you, in the things which have now been announced to you by those who preached the good news to you through the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, things into which angels long to look.

rsv@1Peter:1:15 @ but as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in all your conduct;

rsv@1Peter:1:21 @ Through him you have confidence in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

rsv@1Peter:2:4 @ Come to him, to that living stone, rejected by men but in God's sight chosen and precious;

rsv@1Peter:2:6 @ For it stands in scripture: "Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious, and he who believes in him will not be put to shame."

rsv@1Peter:2:12 @ Maintain good conduct among the Gentiles, so that in case they speak against you as wrongdoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.

rsv@1Peter:2:21 @ For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.

rsv@1Peter:2:23 @ When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten; but he trusted to him who judges justly.

rsv@1Peter:2:24 @ He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.

rsv@1Peter:3:4 @ but let it be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable jewel of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious.

rsv@1Peter:3:5 @ So once the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves and were submissive to their husbands,

rsv@1Peter:3:7 @ Likewise you husbands, live considerately with your wives, bestowing honor on the woman as the weaker sex, since you are joint heirs of the grace of life, in order that your prayers may not be hindered.

rsv@1Peter:3:15 @ but in your hearts reverence Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to make a defense to any one who calls you to account for the hope that is in you, yet do it with gentleness and reverence;

rsv@1Peter:3:16 @ and keep your conscience clear, so that, when you are abused, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame.

rsv@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ also died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit;

rsv@1Peter:3:19 @ in which he went and preached to the spirits in prison,

rsv@1Peter:3:20 @ who formerly did not obey, when God's patience waited in the days of Noah, during the building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were saved through water.

rsv@1Peter:4:1 @ Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same thought, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

rsv@1Peter:4:2 @ so as to live for the rest of the time in the flesh no longer by human passions but by the will of God.

rsv@1Peter:4:3 @ Let the time that is past suffice for doing what the Gentiles like to do, living in licentiousness, passions, drunkenness, revels, carousing, and lawless idolatry.

rsv@1Peter:4:4 @ They are surprised that you do not now join them in the same wild profligacy, and they abuse you;

rsv@1Peter:4:6 @ For this is why the gospel was preached even to the dead, that though judged in the flesh like men, they might live in the spirit like God.

rsv@1Peter:4:11 @ whoever speaks, as one who utters oracles of God; whoever renders service, as one who renders it by the strength which God supplies; in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@1Peter:4:13 @ But rejoice in so far as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed.

rsv@1Peter:5:1 @ So I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ as well as a partaker in the glory that is to be revealed.

rsv@1Peter:5:3 @ not as domineering over those in your charge but being examples to the flock.

rsv@1Peter:5:6 @ Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that in due time he may exalt you.

rsv@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experience of suffering is required of your brotherhood throughout the world.

rsv@1Peter:5:10 @ And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, establish, and strengthen you.

rsv@1Peter:5:12 @ By Silva'nus, a faithful brother as I regard him, I have written briefly to you, exhorting and declaring that this is the true grace of God; stand fast in it.

rsv@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with the kiss of love. Peace to all of you that are in Christ.

rsv@2Peter:1:1 @ Simeon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained a faith of equal standing with ours in the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:

rsv@2Peter:1:2 @ May grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.

rsv@2Peter:1:4 @ by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, that through these you may escape from the corruption that is in the world because of passion, and become partakers of the divine nature.

rsv@2Peter:1:8 @ For if these things are yours and abound, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Peter:1:12 @ Therefore I intend always to remind you of these things, though you know them and are established in the truth that you have.

rsv@2Peter:1:13 @ I think it right, as long as I am in this body, to arouse you by way of reminder,

rsv@2Peter:1:19 @ And we have the prophetic word made more sure. You will do well to pay attention to this as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

rsv@2Peter:2:1 @ But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.

rsv@2Peter:2:3 @ And in their greed they will exploit you with false words; from of old their condemnation has not been idle, and their destruction has not been asleep.

rsv@2Peter:2:8 @ (for by what that righteous man saw and heard as he lived among them, he was vexed in his righteous soul day after day with their lawless deeds),

rsv@2Peter:2:10 @ and especially those who indulge in the lust of defiling passion and despise authority. Bold and wilful, they are not afraid to revile the glorious ones,

rsv@2Peter:2:11 @ whereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not pronounce a reviling judgment upon them before the Lord.

rsv@2Peter:2:12 @ But these, like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and killed, reviling in matters of which they are ignorant, will be destroyed in the same destruction with them,

rsv@2Peter:2:13 @ suffering wrong for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their dissipation, carousing with you.

rsv@2Peter:2:14 @ They have eyes full of adultery, insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children!

rsv@2Peter:2:18 @ For, uttering loud boasts of folly, they entice with licentious passions of the flesh men who have barely escaped from those who live in error.

rsv@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overpowered, the last state has become worse for them than the first.

rsv@2Peter:2:22 @ It has happened to them according to the true proverb, The dog turns back to his own vomit, and the sow is washed only to wallow in the mire.

rsv@2Peter:3:1 @ This is now the second letter that I have written to you, beloved, and in both of them I have aroused your sincere mind by way of reminder;

rsv@2Peter:3:3 @ First of all you must understand this, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own passions

rsv@2Peter:3:11 @ Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of persons ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness,

rsv@2Peter:3:13 @ But according to his promise we wait for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.

rsv@2Peter:3:16 @ speaking of this as he does in all his letters. There are some things in them hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other scriptures.

rsv@2Peter:3:18 @ But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

rsv@1John:1:5 @ This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him is no darkness at all.

rsv@1John:1:6 @ If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not live according to the truth;

rsv@1John:1:7 @ but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.

rsv@1John:1:8 @ If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

rsv@1John:1:10 @ If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

rsv@1John:2:4 @ He who says "I know him" but disobeys his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him;

rsv@1John:2:5 @ but whoever keeps his word, in him truly love for God is perfected. By this we may be sure that we are in him:

rsv@1John:2:6 @ he who says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.

rsv@1John:2:8 @ Yet I am writing you a new commandment, which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining.

rsv@1John:2:9 @ He who says he is in the light and hates his brother is in the darkness still.

rsv@1John:2:10 @ He who loves his brother abides in the light, and in it there is no cause for stumbling.

rsv@1John:2:11 @ But he who hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

rsv@1John:2:14 @ I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

rsv@1John:2:15 @ Do not love the world or the things in the world. If any one loves the world, love for the Father is not in him.

rsv@1John:2:16 @ For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, is not of the Father but is of the world.

rsv@1John:2:24 @ Let what you heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then you will abide in the Son and in the Father.

rsv@1John:2:27 @ but the anointing which you received from him abides in you, and you have no need that any one should teach you; as his anointing teaches you about everything, and is true, and is no lie, just as it has taught you, abide in him.

rsv@1John:2:28 @ And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming.

rsv@1John:3:3 @ And every one who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure.

rsv@1John:3:5 @ You know that he appeared to take away sins, and in him there is no sin.

rsv@1John:3:6 @ No one who abides in him sins; no one who sins has either seen him or known him.

rsv@1John:3:9 @ No one born of God commits sin; for God's nature abides in him, and he cannot sin because he is born of God.

rsv@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love abides in death.

rsv@1John:3:15 @ Any one who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

rsv@1John:3:17 @ But if any one has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?

rsv@1John:3:18 @ Little children, let us not love in word or speech but in deed and in truth.

rsv@1John:3:23 @ And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us.

rsv@1John:3:24 @ All who keep his commandments abide in him, and he in them. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit which he has given us.

rsv@1John:4:2 @ By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit which confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

rsv@1John:4:3 @ and every spirit which does not confess Jesus is not of God. This is the spirit of antichrist, of which you heard that it was coming, and now it is in the world already.

rsv@1John:4:4 @ Little children, you are of God, and have overcome them; for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

rsv@1John:4:9 @ In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him.

rsv@1John:4:10 @ In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the expiation for our sins.

rsv@1John:4:12 @ No man has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.

rsv@1John:4:13 @ By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his own Spirit.

rsv@1John:4:15 @ Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.

rsv@1John:4:16 @ So we know and believe the love God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

rsv@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and he who fears is not perfected in love.

rsv@1John:5:10 @ He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has borne to his Son.

rsv@1John:5:11 @ And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

rsv@2John:1:7 @ For many deceivers have gone out into the world, men who will not acknowledge the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh; such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist.

rsv@Revelation:4:2 @ At once I was in the Spirit, and lo, a throne stood in heaven, with one seated on the throne!

rsv@Revelation:4:4 @ Round the throne were twenty-four thrones, and seated on the thrones were twenty-four elders, clad in white garments, with golden crowns upon their heads.

rsv@Revelation:4:6 @ and before the throne there is as it were a sea of glass, like crystal. And round the throne, on each side of the throne, are four living creatures, full of eyes in front and behind:

rsv@Revelation:5:1 @ And I saw in the right hand of him who was seated on the throne a scroll written within and on the back, sealed with seven seals;

rsv@Revelation:5:3 @ And no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it,

rsv@Revelation:5:13 @ And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all therein, saying, "To him who sits upon the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might for ever and ever!"

rsv@Revelation:6:5 @ When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come!" And I saw, and behold, a black horse, and its rider had a balance in his hand;

rsv@Revelation:6:6 @ and I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, "A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; but do not harm oil and wine!"

rsv@Revelation:6:15 @ Then the kings of the earth and the great men and the generals and the rich and the strong, and every one, slave and free, hid in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains,

rsv@Revelation:7:9 @ After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no man could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands,

rsv@Revelation:7:13 @ Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, "Who are these, clothed in white robes, and whence have they come?"

rsv@Revelation:7:14 @ I said to him, "Sir, you know." And he said to me, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

rsv@Revelation:9:6 @ And in those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, and death will fly from them.

rsv@Revelation:9:7 @ In appearance the locusts were like horses arrayed for battle; on their heads were what looked like crowns of gold; their faces were like human faces,

rsv@Revelation:9:10 @ They have tails like scorpions, and stings, and their power of hurting men for five months lies in their tails.

rsv@Revelation:9:11 @ They have as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit; his name in Hebrew is Abad'don, and in Greek he is called Apol'lyon.

rsv@Revelation:9:17 @ And this was how I saw the horses in my vision: the riders wore breastplates the color of fire and of sapphire and of sulphur, and the heads of the horses were like lions' heads, and fire and smoke and sulphur issued from their mouths.

rsv@Revelation:9:19 @ For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails; their tails are like serpents, with heads, and by means of them they wound.

rsv@Revelation:10:1 @ Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven, wrapped in a cloud, with a rainbow over his head, and his face was like the sun, and his legs like pillars of fire.

rsv@Revelation:10:2 @ He had a little scroll open in his hand. And he set his right foot on the sea, and his left foot on the land,

rsv@Revelation:10:9 @ So I went to the angel and told him to give me the little scroll; and he said to me, "Take it and eat; it will be bitter to your stomach, but sweet as honey in your mouth."

rsv@Revelation:10:10 @ And I took the little scroll from the hand of the angel and ate it; it was sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I had eaten it my stomach was made bitter.

rsv@Revelation:11:3 @ And I will grant my two witnesses power to prophesy for one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth."

rsv@Revelation:11:8 @ and their dead bodies will lie in the street of the great city which is allegorically called Sodom and Egypt, where their Lord was crucified.

rsv@Revelation:11:9 @ For three days and a half men from the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations gaze at their dead bodies and refuse to let them be placed in a tomb,

rsv@Revelation:11:12 @ Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up hither!" And in the sight of their foes they went up to heaven in a cloud.

rsv@Revelation:11:13 @ And at that hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell; seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.

rsv@Revelation:11:15 @ Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign for ever and ever."

rsv@Revelation:11:19 @ Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple; and there were flashes of lightning, voices, peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail.

rsv@Revelation:12:1 @ And a great portent appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars;

rsv@Revelation:12:2 @ she was with child and she cried out in her pangs of birth, in anguish for delivery.

rsv@Revelation:12:3 @ And another portent appeared in heaven; behold, a great red dragon, with seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems upon his heads.

rsv@Revelation:12:6 @ and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, in which to be nourished for one thousand two hundred and sixty days.

rsv@Revelation:12:7 @ Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought,

rsv@Revelation:12:8 @ but they were defeated and there was no longer any place for them in heaven.

rsv@Revelation:12:10 @ And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God.

rsv@Revelation:12:12 @ Rejoice then, O heaven and you that dwell therein! But woe to you, O earth and sea, for the devil has come down to you in great wrath, because he knows that his time is short!"

rsv@Revelation:13:6 @ it opened its mouth to utter blasphemies against God, blaspheming his name and his dwelling, that is, those who dwell in heaven.

rsv@Revelation:13:8 @ and all who dwell on earth will worship it, every one whose name has not been written before the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb that was slain.

rsv@Revelation:13:12 @ It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence, and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed.

rsv@Revelation:13:13 @ It works great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in the sight of men;

rsv@Revelation:13:14 @ and by the signs which it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast, it deceives those who dwell on earth, bidding them make an image for the beast which was wounded by the sword and yet lived;

rsv@Revelation:14:5 @ and in their mouth no lie was found, for they are spotless.

rsv@Revelation:14:6 @ Then I saw another angel flying in midheaven, with an eternal gospel to proclaim to those who dwell on earth, to every nation and tribe and tongue and people;

rsv@Revelation:14:10 @ he also shall drink the wine of God's wrath, poured unmixed into the cup of his anger, and he shall be tormented with fire and sulphur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

rsv@Revelation:14:13 @ And I heard a voice from heaven saying, "Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord henceforth." "Blessed indeed," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!"

rsv@Revelation:14:14 @ Then I looked, and lo, a white cloud, and seated on the cloud one like a son of man, with a golden crown on his head, and a sharp sickle in his hand.

rsv@Revelation:14:15 @ And another angel came out of the temple, calling with a loud voice to him who sat upon the cloud, "Put in your sickle, and reap, for the hour to reap has come, for the harvest of the earth is fully ripe."

rsv@Revelation:14:17 @ And another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle.

rsv@Revelation:14:18 @ Then another angel came out from the altar, the angel who has power over fire, and he called with a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, "Put in your sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for its grapes are ripe."

rsv@Revelation:15:1 @ Then I saw another portent in heaven, great and wonderful, seven angels with seven plagues, which are the last, for with them the wrath of God is ended.

rsv@Revelation:15:2 @ And I saw what appeared to be a sea of glass mingled with fire, and those who had conquered the beast and its image and the number of its name, standing beside the sea of glass with harps of God in their hands.

rsv@Revelation:15:5 @ After this I looked, and the temple of the tent of witness in heaven was opened,

rsv@Revelation:15:6 @ and out of the temple came the seven angels with the seven plagues, robed in pure bright linen, and their breasts girded with golden girdles.

rsv@Revelation:16:3 @ The second angel poured his bowl into the sea, and it became like the blood of a dead man, and every living thing died that was in the sea.

rsv@Revelation:16:5 @ And I heard the angel of water say, "Just art thou in these thy judgments, thou who art and wast, O Holy One.

rsv@Revelation:16:10 @ The fifth angel poured his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was in darkness; men gnawed their tongues in anguish

rsv@Revelation:16:16 @ And they assembled them at the place which is called in Hebrew Armaged'don.

rsv@Revelation:17:3 @ And he carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness, and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of blasphemous names, and it had seven heads and ten horns.

rsv@Revelation:17:4 @ The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and bedecked with gold and jewels and pearls, holding in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her fornication;

rsv@Revelation:17:8 @ The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is to ascend from the bottomless pit and go to perdition; and the dwellers on earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, will marvel to behold the beast, because it was and is not and is to come.

rsv@Revelation:18:4 @ Then I heard another voice from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my people, lest you take part in her sins, lest you share in her plagues;

rsv@Revelation:18:6 @ Render to her as she herself has rendered, and repay her double for her deeds; mix a double draught for her in the cup she mixed.

rsv@Revelation:18:7 @ As she glorified herself and played the wanton, so give her a like measure of torment and mourning. Since in her heart she says, `A queen I sit, I am no widow, mourning I shall never see,'

rsv@Revelation:18:8 @ so shall her plagues come in a single day, pestilence and mourning and famine, and she shall be burned with fire; for mighty is the Lord God who judges her."

rsv@Revelation:18:10 @...thou mighty city, Babylon! In one...

rsv@Revelation:18:15 @ The merchants of these wares, who gained wealth from her, will stand far off, in fear of her torment, weeping and mourning aloud,

rsv@Revelation:18:16 @ "Alas, alas, for the great city that was clothed in fine linen, in purple and scarlet, bedecked with gold, with jewels, and with pearls!

rsv@Revelation:18:17 @ In one hour all this wealth has been laid waste." And all shipmasters and seafaring men, sailors and all whose trade is on the sea, stood far off

rsv@Revelation:18:19 @...rich by her wealth! In one...

rsv@Revelation:18:22 @ and the sound of harpers and minstrels, of flute players and trumpeters, shall be heard in thee no more; and a craftsman of any craft shall be found in thee no more; and the sound of the millstone shall be heard in thee no more;

rsv@Revelation:18:23 @ and the light of a lamp shall shine in thee no more; and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall be heard in thee no more; for thy merchants were the great men of the earth, and all nations were deceived by thy sorcery.

rsv@Revelation:18:24 @ And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on earth."

rsv@Revelation:19:1 @ After this I heard what seemed to be the loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying, "Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,

rsv@Revelation:19:11 @ Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! He who sat upon it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war.

rsv@Revelation:19:13 @ He is clad in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word of God.

rsv@Revelation:19:14 @ And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, followed him on white horses.

rsv@Revelation:19:17 @ Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and with a loud voice he called to all the birds that fly in midheaven, "Come, gather for the great supper of God,

rsv@Revelation:19:20 @ And the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who in its presence had worked the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulphur.

rsv@Revelation:20:6 @ Blessed and holy is he who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they shall reign with him a thousand years.

rsv@Revelation:20:12 @ And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Also another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, by what they had done.

rsv@Revelation:20:13 @ And the sea gave up the dead in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead in them, and all were judged by what they had done.

rsv@Revelation:20:15 @ and if any one's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

rsv@Revelation:21:8 @ But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted, as for murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their lot shall be in the lake that burns with fire and sulphur, which is the second death."

rsv@Revelation:21:10 @ And in the Spirit he carried me away to a great, high mountain, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God,

rsv@Revelation:21:22 @ And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb.

rsv@Revelation:21:27 @ But nothing unclean shall enter it, nor any one who practices abomination or falsehood, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life.

rsv@Revelation:22:3 @ There shall no more be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and his servants shall worship him;
