nkjv@Info @ The New King James Version was conceiv ed by Arthur Farstad in an effort to translate into everyday English the literal context of the scriptures, just as the King James Version did in the 16th century.

nkjv@Genesis:1:1 @ In the beginning God creat ed the heavens and the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:1:4 @ And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divid ed the light from the darkness.

nkjv@Genesis:1:5 @ God call ed the light Day, and the darkness He call ed Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day.

nkjv@Genesis:1:7 @ Thus God made the firmament, and divid ed the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so.

nkjv@Genesis:1:8 @ And God call ed the firmament Heaven. So the evening and the morning were the second day.

nkjv@Genesis:1:9 @ Then God said, "Let the waters under the heavens be gather ed together into one place, and let the dry land appear"; and it was so.

nkjv@Genesis:1:10 @ And God call ed the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He call ed Seas. And God saw that it was good.

nkjv@Genesis:1:11 @ Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields se ed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose se ed is in itself, on the earth"; and it was so.

nkjv@Genesis:1:12 @ And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields se ed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose se ed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

nkjv@Genesis:1:21 @ So God creat ed great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abound ed, according to their kind, and every wing ed bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

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

nkjv@Genesis:1:27 @ So God creat ed man in His own image; in the image of God He creat ed him; male and female He creat ed them.

nkjv@Genesis:1:28 @ Then God bless ed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."

nkjv@Genesis:1:29 @ And God said, "See, I have given you every herb that yields se ed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields se ed; to you it shall be for food.

nkjv@Genesis:1:31 @ Then God saw everything that He had made, and inde ed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

nkjv@Genesis:2:1 @ Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finish ed.

nkjv@Genesis:2:2 @ And on the seventh day God end ed His work which He had done, and He rest ed on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.

nkjv@Genesis:2:3 @ Then God bless ed the seventh day and sanctifi ed it, because in it He rest ed from all His work which God had creat ed and made.

nkjv@Genesis:2:4 @ This is the history of the heavens and the earth when they were creat ed, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,

nkjv@Genesis:2:5 @ before any plant of the field was in the earth and before any herb of the field had grown. For the LORD God had not caus ed it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to till the ground;

nkjv@Genesis:2:6 @ but a mist went up from the earth and water ed the whole face of the ground.

nkjv@Genesis:2:7 @ And the LORD God form ed man of the dust of the ground, and breath ed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

nkjv@Genesis:2:8 @ The LORD God plant ed a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had form ed.

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

nkjv@Genesis:2:10 @ Now a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it part ed and became four riverheads.

nkjv@Genesis:2:15 @ Then the LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it.

nkjv@Genesis:2:16 @ And the LORD God command ed the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat;

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

nkjv@Genesis:2:19 @ Out of the ground the LORD God form ed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam call ed each living creature, that was its name.

nkjv@Genesis:2:21 @ And the LORD God caus ed a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and clos ed up the flesh in its place.

nkjv@Genesis:2:23 @ And Adam said: "This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be call ed Woman, Because she was taken out of Man."

nkjv@Genesis:2:24 @ Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be join ed to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

nkjv@Genesis:2:25 @ And they were both nak ed, the man and his wife, and were not asham ed.

nkjv@Genesis:3:1 @ Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God inde ed said, "You shall not eat of every tree of the garden'?"

nkjv@Genesis:3:5 @ For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be open ed, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."

nkjv@Genesis:3:7 @ Then the eyes of both of them were open ed, and they knew that they were nak ed; and they sew ed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.

nkjv@Genesis:3:9 @ Then the LORD God call ed to Adam and said to him, "Where are you?"

nkjv@Genesis:3:10 @ So he said, "I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was nak ed; and I hid myself."

nkjv@Genesis:3:11 @ And He said, "Who told you that you were nak ed? Have you eaten from the tree of which I command ed you that you should not eat?"

nkjv@Genesis:3:13 @ And the LORD God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceiv ed me, and I ate."

nkjv@Genesis:3:14 @ So the LORD God said to the serpent: "Because you have done this, You are curs ed more than all cattle, And more than every beast of the field; On your belly you shall go, And you shall eat dust All the days of your life.

nkjv@Genesis:3:15 @ And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your se ed and her Se ed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel."

nkjv@Genesis:3:17 @ Then to Adam He said, "Because you have he ed ed the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I command ed you, saying, "You shall not eat of it': "Curs ed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it All the days of your life.

nkjv@Genesis:3:20 @ And Adam call ed his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.

nkjv@Genesis:3:21 @ Also for Adam and his wife the LORD God made tunics of skin, and cloth ed them.

nkjv@Genesis:3:23 @ therefore the LORD God sent him out of the garden of Eden to till the ground from which he was taken.

nkjv@Genesis:3:24 @ So He drove out the man; and He plac ed cherubim at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turn ed every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.

nkjv@Genesis:4:1 @ Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceiv ed and bore Cain, and said, "I have acquir ed a man from the LORD."

nkjv@Genesis:4:4 @ Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the LORD respect ed Abel and his offering,

nkjv@Genesis:4:7 @ If you do well, will you not be accept ed? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it."

nkjv@Genesis:4:8 @ Now Cain talk ed with Abel his brother; and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother and kill ed him.

nkjv@Genesis:4:11 @ So now you are curs ed from the earth, which has open ed its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.

nkjv@Genesis:4:16 @ Then Cain went out from the presence of the LORD and dwelt in the land of Nod on the east of Eden.

nkjv@Genesis:4:17 @ And Cain knew his wife, and she conceiv ed and bore Enoch. And he built a city, and call ed the name of the city after the name of his son--Enoch.

nkjv@Genesis:4:23 @ Then Lamech said to his wives: "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; Wives of Lamech, listen to my speech! For I have kill ed a man for wounding me, Even a young man for hurting me.

nkjv@Genesis:4:24 @ If Cain shall be aveng ed sevenfold, Then Lamech seventy-sevenfold."

nkjv@Genesis:4:25 @ And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and nam ed him Seth, "For God has appoint ed another se ed for me instead of Abel, whom Cain kill ed."

nkjv@Genesis:4:26 @ And as for Seth, to him also a son was born; and he nam ed him Enosh. Then men began to call on the name of the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:5:1 @ This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God creat ed man, He made him in the likeness of God.

nkjv@Genesis:5:2 @ He creat ed them male and female, and bless ed them and call ed them Mankind in the day they were creat ed.

nkjv@Genesis:5:3 @ And Adam liv ed one hundr ed and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image, and nam ed him Seth.

nkjv@Genesis:5:4 @ After he begot Seth, the days of Adam were eight hundr ed years; and he had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:5 @ So all the days that Adam liv ed were nine hundr ed and thirty years; and he di ed.

nkjv@Genesis:5:6 @ Seth liv ed one hundr ed and five years, and begot Enosh.

nkjv@Genesis:5:7 @ After he begot Enosh, Seth liv ed eight hundr ed and seven years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:8 @ So all the days of Seth were nine hundr ed and twelve years; and he di ed.

nkjv@Genesis:5:9 @ Enosh liv ed ninety years, and begot Cainan.

nkjv@Genesis:5:10 @ After he begot Cainan, Enosh liv ed eight hundr ed and fifteen years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:11 @ So all the days of Enosh were nine hundr ed and five years; and he di ed.

nkjv@Genesis:5:12 @ Cainan liv ed seventy years, and begot Mahalalel.

nkjv@Genesis:5:13 @ After he begot Mahalalel, Cainan liv ed eight hundr ed and forty years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:14 @ So all the days of Cainan were nine hundr ed and ten years; and he di ed.

nkjv@Genesis:5:15 @ Mahalalel liv ed sixty-five years, and begot Jar ed.

nkjv@Genesis:5:16 @ After he begot Jar ed, Mahalalel liv ed eight hundr ed and thirty years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:17 @ So all the days of Mahalalel were eight hundr ed and ninety-five years; and he di ed.

nkjv@Genesis:5:18 @ Jar ed liv ed one hundr ed and sixty-two years, and begot Enoch.

nkjv@Genesis:5:19 @ After he begot Enoch, Jar ed liv ed eight hundr ed years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:20 @ So all the days of Jar ed were nine hundr ed and sixty-two years; and he di ed.

nkjv@Genesis:5:21 @ Enoch liv ed sixty-five years, and begot Methuselah.

nkjv@Genesis:5:22 @ After he begot Methuselah, Enoch walk ed with God three hundr ed years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:23 @ So all the days of Enoch were three hundr ed and sixty-five years.

nkjv@Genesis:5:24 @ And Enoch walk ed with God; and he was not, for God took him.

nkjv@Genesis:5:25 @ Methuselah liv ed one hundr ed and eighty-seven years, and begot Lamech.

nkjv@Genesis:5:28 @ Lamech liv ed one hundr ed and eighty-two years, and had a son.

nkjv@Genesis:5:29 @ And he call ed his name Noah, saying, "This one will comfort us concerning our work and the toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD has curs ed."

nkjv@Genesis:5:30 @ After he begot Noah, Lamech liv ed five hundr ed and ninety-five years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:31 @ So all the days of Lamech were seven hundr ed and seventy-seven years; and he di ed.

nkjv@Genesis:5:32 @ And Noah was five hundr ed years old, and Noah begot Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

nkjv@Genesis:6:3 @ And the LORD said, "My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is inde ed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundr ed and twenty years."

nkjv@Genesis:6:5 @ Then the LORD saw that the wick edness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

nkjv@Genesis:6:6 @ And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was griev ed in His heart.

nkjv@Genesis:6:7 @ So the LORD said, "I will destroy man whom I have creat ed from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them."

nkjv@Genesis:6:9 @ This is the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walk ed with God.

nkjv@Genesis:6:11 @ The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was fill ed with violence.

nkjv@Genesis:6:12 @ So God look ed upon the earth, and inde ed it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupt ed their way on the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:6:13 @ And God said to Noah, "The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is fill ed with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:6:15 @ And this is how you shall make it: The length of the ark shall be three hundr ed cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.

nkjv@Genesis:6:22 @ Thus Noah did; according to all that God command ed him, so he did.

nkjv@Genesis:7:5 @ And Noah did according to all that the LORD command ed him.

nkjv@Genesis:7:6 @ Noah was six hundr ed years old when the floodwaters were on the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:7:9 @ two by two they went into the ark to Noah, male and female, as God had command ed Noah.

nkjv@Genesis:7:11 @ In the six hundr edth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were open ed.

nkjv@Genesis:7:13 @ On the very same day Noah and Noah's sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and Noah's wife and the three wives of his sons with them, enter ed the ark--

nkjv@Genesis:7:16 @ So those that enter ed, male and female of all flesh, went in as God had command ed him; and the LORD shut him in.

nkjv@Genesis:7:17 @ Now the flood was on the earth forty days. The waters increas ed and lift ed up the ark, and it rose high above the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:7:18 @ The waters prevail ed and greatly increas ed on the earth, and the ark mov ed about on the surface of the waters.

nkjv@Genesis:7:19 @ And the waters prevail ed exce edingly on the earth, and all the high hills under the whole heaven were cover ed.

nkjv@Genesis:7:20 @ The waters prevail ed fifteen cubits upward, and the mountains were cover ed.

nkjv@Genesis:7:21 @ And all flesh di ed that mov ed on the earth: birds and cattle and beasts and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man.

nkjv@Genesis:7:22 @ All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, all that was on the dry land, di ed.

nkjv@Genesis:7:23 @ So He destroy ed all living things which were on the face of the ground: both man and cattle, creeping thing and bird of the air. They were destroy ed from the earth. Only Noah and those who were with him in the ark remain ed alive.

nkjv@Genesis:7:24 @ And the waters prevail ed on the earth one hundr ed and fifty days.

nkjv@Genesis:8:1 @ Then God remember ed Noah, and every living thing, and all the animals that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsid ed.

nkjv@Genesis:8:2 @ The fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were also stopp ed, and the rain from heaven was restrain ed.

nkjv@Genesis:8:3 @ And the waters rec ed ed continually from the earth. At the end of the hundr ed and fifty days the waters decreas ed.

nkjv@Genesis:8:4 @ Then the ark rest ed in the seventh month, the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.

nkjv@Genesis:8:5 @ And the waters decreas ed continually until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

nkjv@Genesis:8:6 @ So it came to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah open ed the window of the ark which he had made.

nkjv@Genesis:8:7 @ Then he sent out a raven, which kept going to and fro until the waters had dri ed up from the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:8:8 @ He also sent out from himself a dove, to see if the waters had rec ed ed from the face of the ground.

nkjv@Genesis:8:9 @ But the dove found no resting place for the sole of her foot, and she return ed into the ark to him, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth. So he put out his hand and took her, and drew her into the ark to himself.

nkjv@Genesis:8:10 @ And he wait ed yet another seven days, and again he sent the dove out from the ark.

nkjv@Genesis:8:11 @ Then the dove came to him in the evening, and behold, a freshly pluck ed olive leaf was in her mouth; and Noah knew that the waters had rec ed ed from the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:8:12 @ So he wait ed yet another seven days and sent out the dove, which did not return again to him anymore.

nkjv@Genesis:8:13 @ And it came to pass in the six hundr ed and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, that the waters were dri ed up from the earth; and Noah remov ed the covering of the ark and look ed, and inde ed the surface of the ground was dry.

nkjv@Genesis:8:14 @ And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dri ed.

nkjv@Genesis:8:20 @ Then Noah built an altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird, and offer ed burnt offerings on the altar.

nkjv@Genesis:8:21 @ And the LORD smell ed a soothing aroma. Then the LORD said in His heart, "I will never again curse the ground for man's sake, although the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; nor will I again destroy every living thing as I have done.

nkjv@Genesis:8:22 @ "While the earth remains, Se edtime and harvest, Cold and heat, Winter and summer, And day and night Shall not cease."

nkjv@Genesis:9:1 @ So God bless ed Noah and his sons, and said to them: "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:9:6 @ "Whoever sh eds man's blood, By man his blood shall be sh ed; For in the image of God He made man.

nkjv@Genesis:9:17 @ And God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant which I have establish ed between Me and all flesh that is on the earth."

nkjv@Genesis:9:19 @ These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populat ed.

nkjv@Genesis:9:20 @ And Noah began to be a farmer, and he plant ed a vineyard.

nkjv@Genesis:9:21 @ Then he drank of the wine and was drunk, and became uncover ed in his tent.

nkjv@Genesis:9:22 @ And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nak edness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.

nkjv@Genesis:9:23 @ But Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and went backward and cover ed the nak edness of their father. Their faces were turn ed away, and they did not see their father's nak edness.

nkjv@Genesis:9:25 @ Then he said: "Curs ed be Canaan; A servant of servants He shall be to his brethren."

nkjv@Genesis:9:26 @ And he said: "Bless ed be the LORD, The God of Shem, And may Canaan be his servant.

nkjv@Genesis:9:28 @ And Noah liv ed after the flood three hundr ed and fifty years.

nkjv@Genesis:9:29 @ So all the days of Noah were nine hundr ed and fifty years; and he di ed.

nkjv@Genesis:10:5 @ From these the coastland peoples of the Gentiles were separat ed into their lands, everyone according to his language, according to their families, into their nations.

nkjv@Genesis:10:7 @ The sons of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabtechah; and the sons of Raamah were Sheba and D edan.

nkjv@Genesis:10:18 @ the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were dispers ed.

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

nkjv@Genesis:10:32 @ These were the families of the sons of Noah, according to their generations, in their nations; and from these the nations were divid ed on the earth after the flood.

nkjv@Genesis:11:2 @ And it came to pass, as they journey ed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there.

nkjv@Genesis:11:4 @ And they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scatter ed abroad over the face of the whole earth."

nkjv@Genesis:11:6 @ And the LORD said, "Inde ed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them.

nkjv@Genesis:11:8 @ So the LORD scatter ed them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they ceas ed building the city.

nkjv@Genesis:11:9 @ Therefore its name is call ed Babel, because there the LORD confus ed the language of all the earth; and from there the LORD scatter ed them abroad over the face of all the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:11:10 @ This is the genealogy of Shem: Shem was one hundr ed years old, and begot Arphaxad two years after the flood.

nkjv@Genesis:11:11 @ After he begot Arphaxad, Shem liv ed five hundr ed years, and begot sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:11:12 @ Arphaxad liv ed thirty-five years, and begot Salah.

nkjv@Genesis:11:13 @ After he begot Salah, Arphaxad liv ed four hundr ed and three years, and begot sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:11:28 @ And Haran di ed before his father Terah in his native land, in Ur of the Chaldeans.

nkjv@Genesis:11:32 @ So the days of Terah were two hundr ed and five years, and Terah di ed in Haran.

nkjv@Genesis:12:3 @ I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be bless ed."

nkjv@Genesis:12:4 @ So Abram depart ed as the LORD had spoken to him, and Lot went with him. And Abram was seventy-five years old when he depart ed from Haran.

nkjv@Genesis:12:5 @ Then Abram took Sarai his wife and Lot his brother's son, and all their possessions that they had gather ed, and the people whom they had acquir ed in Haran, and they depart ed to go to the land of Canaan. So they came to the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:12:18 @ And Pharaoh call ed Abram and said, "What is this you have done to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?

nkjv@Genesis:31:55 @ And early in the morning Laban arose, and kiss ed his sons and daughters and bless ed them. Then Laban depart ed and return ed to his place.

nkjv@Genesis:32:2 @ When Jacob saw them, he said, "This is God's camp." And he call ed the name of that place Mahanaim.

nkjv@Genesis:32:3 @ Then Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.

nkjv@Genesis:32:4 @ And he command ed them, saying, "Speak thus to my lord Esau, "Thus your servant Jacob says: "I have dwelt with Laban and stay ed there until now.

nkjv@Genesis:32:6 @ Then the messengers return ed to Jacob, saying, "We came to your brother Esau, and he also is coming to meet you, and four hundr ed men are with him."

nkjv@Genesis:32:7 @ So Jacob was greatly afraid and distress ed; and he divid ed the people that were with him, and the flocks and herds and camels, into two companies.

nkjv@Genesis:32:10 @ I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies and of all the truth which You have shown Your servant; for I cross ed over this Jordan with my staff, and now I have become two companies.

nkjv@Genesis:32:12 @ For You said, "I will surely treat you well, and make your descendants as the sand of the sea, which cannot be number ed for multitude."'

nkjv@Genesis:32:13 @ So he lodg ed there that same night, and took what came to his hand as a present for Esau his brother:

nkjv@Genesis:32:14 @ two hundr ed female goats and twenty male goats, two hundr ed ewes and twenty rams,

nkjv@Genesis:32:16 @ Then he deliver ed them to the hand of his servants, every drove by itself, and said to his servants, "Pass over before me, and put some distance between successive droves."

nkjv@Genesis:32:17 @ And he command ed the first one, saying, "When Esau my brother meets you and asks you, saying, "To whom do you belong, and where are you going? Whose are these in front of you?'

nkjv@Genesis:32:22 @ And he arose that night and took his two wives, his two female servants, and his eleven sons, and cross ed over the ford of Jabbok.

nkjv@Genesis:32:24 @ Then Jacob was left alone; and a Man wrestl ed with him until the breaking of day.

nkjv@Genesis:32:25 @ Now when He saw that He did not prevail against him, He touch ed the socket of his hip; and the socket of Jacob's hip was out of joint as He wrestl ed with him.

nkjv@Genesis:32:28 @ And He said, "Your name shall no longer be call ed Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggl ed with God and with men, and have prevail ed."

nkjv@Genesis:32:29 @ Then Jacob ask ed, saying, "Tell me Your name, I pray." And He said, "Why is it that you ask about My name?" And He bless ed him there.

nkjv@Genesis:32:30 @ So Jacob call ed the name of the place Peniel: "For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserv ed."

nkjv@Genesis:32:31 @ Just as he cross ed over Penuel the sun rose on him, and he limp ed on his hip.

nkjv@Genesis:32:32 @ Therefore to this day the children of Israel do not eat the muscle that shrank, which is on the hip socket, because He touch ed the socket of Jacob's hip in the muscle that shrank.

nkjv@Genesis:33:1 @ Now Jacob lift ed his eyes and look ed, and there, Esau was coming, and with him were four hundr ed men. So he divid ed the children among Leah, Rachel, and the two maidservants.

nkjv@Genesis:33:3 @ Then he cross ed over before them and bow ed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.

nkjv@Genesis:33:4 @ But Esau ran to meet him, and embrac ed him, and fell on his neck and kiss ed him, and they wept.

nkjv@Genesis:33:5 @ And he lift ed his eyes and saw the women and children, and said, "Who are these with you?" So he said, "The children whom God has graciously given your servant."

nkjv@Genesis:33:6 @ Then the maidservants came near, they and their children, and bow ed down.

nkjv@Genesis:33:7 @ And Leah also came near with her children, and they bow ed down. Afterward Joseph and Rachel came near, and they bow ed down.

nkjv@Genesis:33:10 @ And Jacob said, "No, please, if I have now found favor in your sight, then receive my present from my hand, inasmuch as I have seen your face as though I had seen the face of God, and you were pleas ed with me.

nkjv@Genesis:33:11 @ Please, take my blessing that is brought to you, because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough." So he urg ed him, and he took it.

nkjv@Genesis:33:15 @ And Esau said, "Now let me leave with you some of the people who are with me." But he said, "What ne ed is there? Let me find favor in the sight of my lord."

nkjv@Genesis:33:16 @ So Esau return ed that day on his way to Seir.

nkjv@Genesis:33:17 @ And Jacob journey ed to Succoth, built himself a house, and made booths for his livestock. Therefore the name of the place is call ed Succoth.

nkjv@Genesis:33:18 @ Then Jacob came safely to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Padan Aram; and he pitch ed his tent before the city.

nkjv@Genesis:33:19 @ And he bought the parcel of land, where he had pitch ed his tent, from the children of Hamor, Shechem's father, for one hundr ed pieces of money.

nkjv@Genesis:33:20 @ Then he erect ed an altar there and call ed it El Elohe Israel.

nkjv@Genesis:34:2 @ And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her and lay with her, and violat ed her.

nkjv@Genesis:34:3 @ His soul was strongly attract ed to Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he lov ed the young woman and spoke kindly to the young woman.

nkjv@Genesis:34:5 @ And Jacob heard that he had defil ed Dinah his daughter. Now his sons were with his livestock in the field; so Jacob held his peace until they came.

nkjv@Genesis:34:7 @ And the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it; and the men were griev ed and very angry, because he had done a disgraceful thing in Israel by lying with Jacob's daughter, a thing which ought not to be done.

nkjv@Genesis:34:13 @ But the sons of Jacob answer ed Shechem and Hamor his father, and spoke deceitfully, because he had defil ed Dinah their sister.

nkjv@Genesis:34:14 @ And they said to them, "We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one who is uncircumcis ed, for that would be a reproach to us.

nkjv@Genesis:34:15 @ But on this condition we will consent to you: If you will become as we are, if every male of you is circumcis ed,

nkjv@Genesis:34:17 @ But if you will not he ed us and be circumcis ed, then we will take our daughter and be gone."

nkjv@Genesis:34:18 @ And their words pleas ed Hamor and Shechem, Hamor's son.

nkjv@Genesis:34:19 @ So the young man did not delay to do the thing, because he delight ed in Jacob's daughter. He was more honorable than all the household of his father.

nkjv@Genesis:34:21 @ "These men are at peace with us. Therefore let them dwell in the land and trade in it. For inde ed the land is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters to us as wives, and let us give them our daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:34:24 @ And all who went out of the gate of his city he ed ed Hamor and Shechem his son; every male was circumcis ed, all who went out of the gate of his city.

nkjv@Genesis:34:25 @ Now it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, each took his sword and came boldly upon the city and kill ed all the males.

nkjv@Genesis:34:26 @ And they kill ed Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah from Shechem's house, and went out.

nkjv@Genesis:34:27 @ The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and plunder ed the city, because their sister had been defil ed.

nkjv@Genesis:34:29 @ and all their wealth. All their little ones and their wives they took captive; and they plunder ed even all that was in the houses.

nkjv@Genesis:34:30 @ Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have troubl ed me by making me obnoxious among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites; and since I am few in number, they will gather themselves together against me and kill me. I shall be destroy ed, my household and I."

nkjv@Genesis:35:1 @ Then God said to Jacob, "Arise, go up to Bethel and dwell there; and make an altar there to God, who appear ed to you when you fl ed from the face of Esau your brother."

nkjv@Genesis:35:3 @ Then let us arise and go up to Bethel; and I will make an altar there to God, who answer ed me in the day of my distress and has been with me in the way which I have gone."

nkjv@Genesis:35:5 @ And they journey ed, and the terror of God was upon the cities that were all around them, and they did not pursue the sons of Jacob.

nkjv@Genesis:35:7 @ And he built an altar there and call ed the place El Bethel, because there God appear ed to him when he fl ed from the face of his brother.

nkjv@Genesis:35:8 @ Now Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, di ed, and she was buri ed below Bethel under the terebinth tree. So the name of it was call ed Allon Bachuth.

nkjv@Genesis:35:16 @ Then they journey ed from Bethel. And when there was but a little distance to go to Ephrath, Rachel labor ed in childbirth, and she had hard labor.

nkjv@Genesis:35:18 @ And so it was, as her soul was departing (for she di ed), that she call ed his name Ben-Oni; but his father call ed him Benjamin.

nkjv@Genesis:35:19 @ So Rachel di ed and was buri ed on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).

nkjv@Genesis:35:29 @ So Isaac breath ed his last and di ed, and was gather ed to his people, being old and full of days. And his sons Esau and Jacob buri ed him.

nkjv@Genesis:36:1 @ Now this is the genealogy of Esau, who is Edom.

nkjv@Genesis:36:6 @ Then Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and all the persons of his household, his cattle and all his animals, and all his goods which he had gain ed in the land of Canaan, and went to a country away from the presence of his brother Jacob.

nkjv@Genesis:36:8 @ So Esau dwelt in Mount Seir. Esau is Edom.

nkjv@Genesis:36:9 @ And this is the genealogy of Esau the father of the Edomites in Mount Seir.

nkjv@Genesis:36:16 @ Chief Korah, Chief Gatam, and Chief Amalek. These were the chiefs of Eliphaz in the land of Edom. They were the sons of Adah.

nkjv@Genesis:36:17 @ These were the sons of Reuel, Esau's son: Chief Nahath, Chief Zerah, Chief Shammah, and Chief Mizzah. These were the chiefs of Reuel in the land of Edom. These were the sons of Basemath, Esau's wife.

nkjv@Genesis:36:24 @ These were the sons of Zibeon: both Ajah and Anah. This was the Anah who found the water in the wilderness as he pastur ed the donkeys of his father Zibeon.

nkjv@Genesis:36:31 @ Now these were the kings who reign ed in the land of Edom before any king reign ed over the children of Israel:

nkjv@Genesis:36:32 @ Bela the son of Beor reign ed in Edom, and the name of his city was Dinhabah.

nkjv@Genesis:36:33 @ And when Bela di ed, Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah reign ed in his place.

nkjv@Genesis:36:43 @ Chief Magdiel, and Chief Iram. These were the chiefs of Edom, according to their dwelling places in the land of their possession. Esau was the father of the Edomites.

nkjv@Genesis:37:2 @ This is the history of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was fe eding the flock with his brothers. And the lad was with the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives; and Joseph brought a bad report of them to his father.

nkjv@Genesis:37:3 @ Now Israel lov ed Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age. Also he made him a tunic of many colors.

nkjv@Genesis:37:4 @ But when his brothers saw that their father lov ed him more than all his brothers, they hat ed him and could not speak peaceably to him.

nkjv@Genesis:37:5 @ Now Joseph had a dream, and he told it to his brothers; and they hat ed him even more.

nkjv@Genesis:37:6 @ So he said to them, "Please hear this dream which I have dream ed:

nkjv@Genesis:37:9 @ Then he dream ed still another dream and told it to his brothers, and said, "Look, I have dream ed another dream. And this time, the sun, the moon, and the eleven stars bow ed down to me."

nkjv@Genesis:37:10 @ So he told it to his father and his brothers; and his father rebuk ed him and said to him, "What is this dream that you have dream ed? Shall your mother and I and your brothers inde ed come to bow down to the earth before you?"

nkjv@Genesis:37:11 @ And his brothers envi ed him, but his father kept the matter in mind.

nkjv@Genesis:37:12 @ Then his brothers went to fe ed their father's flock in Shechem.

nkjv@Genesis:37:13 @ And Israel said to Joseph, "Are not your brothers fe eding the flock in Shechem? Come, I will send you to them." So he said to him, "Here I am."

nkjv@Genesis:37:15 @ Now a certain man found him, and there he was, wandering in the field. And the man ask ed him, saying, "What are you seeking?"

nkjv@Genesis:37:16 @ So he said, "I am seeking my brothers. Please tell me where they are fe eding their flocks."

nkjv@Genesis:37:17 @ And the man said, "They have depart ed from here, for I heard them say, "Let us go to Dothan."' So Joseph went after his brothers and found them in Dothan.

nkjv@Genesis:37:18 @ Now when they saw him afar off, even before he came near them, they conspir ed against him to kill him.

nkjv@Genesis:37:20 @ Come therefore, let us now kill him and cast him into some pit; and we shall say, "Some wild beast has devour ed him.' We shall see what will become of his dreams!"

nkjv@Genesis:37:21 @ But Reuben heard it, and he deliver ed him out of their hands, and said, "Let us not kill him."

nkjv@Genesis:37:22 @ And Reuben said to them, "Sh ed no blood, but cast him into this pit which is in the wilderness, and do not lay a hand on him"--that he might deliver him out of their hands, and bring him back to his father.

nkjv@Genesis:37:23 @ So it came to pass, when Joseph had come to his brothers, that they stripp ed Joseph of his tunic, the tunic of many colors that was on him.

nkjv@Genesis:37:25 @ And they sat down to eat a meal. Then they lift ed their eyes and look ed, and there was a company of Ishmaelites, coming from Gilead with their camels, bearing spices, balm, and myrrh, on their way to carry them down to Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:37:27 @ Come and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites, and let not our hand be upon him, for he is our brother and our flesh." And his brothers listen ed.

nkjv@Genesis:37:28 @ Then Midianite traders pass ed by; so the brothers pull ed Joseph up and lift ed him out of the pit, and sold him to the Ishmaelites for twenty shekels of silver. And they took Joseph to Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:37:29 @ Then Reuben return ed to the pit, and inde ed Joseph was not in the pit; and he tore his clothes.

nkjv@Genesis:37:30 @ And he return ed to his brothers and said, "The lad is no more; and I, where shall I go?"

nkjv@Genesis:37:31 @ So they took Joseph's tunic, kill ed a kid of the goats, and dipp ed the tunic in the blood.

nkjv@Genesis:37:33 @ And he recogniz ed it and said, "It is my son's tunic. A wild beast has devour ed him. Without doubt Joseph is torn to pieces."

nkjv@Numbers:9:22 @ Whether it was two days, a month, or a year that the cloud remain ed above the tabernacle, the children of Israel would remain encamp ed and not journey; but when it was taken up, they would journey.

nkjv@Numbers:9:23 @ At the command of the LORD they remain ed encamp ed, and at the command of the LORD they journey ed; they kept the charge of the LORD, at the command of the LORD by the hand of Moses.

nkjv@Numbers:10:18 @ And the standard of the camp of Reuben set out according to their armies; over their army was Elizur the son of Sh edeur.

nkjv@Numbers:10:35 @ So it was, whenever the ark set out, that Moses said: "Rise up, O LORD! Let Your enemies be scatter ed, And let those who hate You flee before You."

nkjv@Numbers:10:36 @ And when it rest ed, he said: "Return, O LORD, To the many thousands of Israel."

nkjv@Numbers:11:1 @ Now when the people complain ed, it displeas ed the LORD; for the LORD heard it, and His anger was arous ed. So the fire of the LORD burn ed among them, and consum ed some in the outskirts of the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:11:2 @ Then the people cri ed out to Moses, and when Moses pray ed to the LORD, the fire was quench ed.

nkjv@Numbers:11:3 @ So he call ed the name of the place Taberah, because the fire of the LORD had burn ed among them.

nkjv@Numbers:11:4 @ Now the mix ed multitude who were among them yield ed to intense craving; so the children of Israel also wept again and said: "Who will give us meat to eat?

nkjv@Numbers:11:8 @ The people went about and gather ed it, ground it on millstones or beat it in the mortar, cook ed it in pans, and made cakes of it; and its taste was like the taste of pastry prepar ed with oil.

nkjv@Numbers:11:10 @ Then Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, everyone at the door of his tent; and the anger of the LORD was greatly arous ed; Moses also was displeas ed.

nkjv@Numbers:11:11 @ So Moses said to the LORD, "Why have You afflict ed Your servant? And why have I not found favor in Your sight, that You have laid the burden of all these people on me?

nkjv@Numbers:11:32 @ And the people stay ed up all that day, all night, and all the next day, and gather ed the quail (he who gather ed least gather ed ten homers); and they spread them out for themselves all around the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:11:33 @ But while the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chew ed, the wrath of the LORD was arous ed against the people, and the LORD struck the people with a very great plague.

nkjv@Numbers:11:34 @ So he call ed the name of that place Kibroth Hattaavah, because there they buri ed the people who had yield ed to craving.

nkjv@Numbers:11:35 @ From Kibroth Hattaavah the people mov ed to Hazeroth, and camp ed at Hazeroth.

nkjv@Numbers:12:1 @ Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had marri ed; for he had marri ed an Ethiopian woman.

nkjv@Numbers:12:5 @ Then the LORD came down in the pillar of cloud and stood in the door of the tabernacle, and call ed Aaron and Miriam. And they both went forward.

nkjv@Numbers:12:9 @ So the anger of the LORD was arous ed against them, and He depart ed.

nkjv@Numbers:12:10 @ And when the cloud depart ed from above the tabernacle, suddenly Miriam became leprous, as white as snow. Then Aaron turn ed toward Miriam, and there she was, a leper.

nkjv@Numbers:12:11 @ So Aaron said to Moses, "Oh, my lord! Please do not lay this sin on us, in which we have done foolishly and in which we have sinn ed.

nkjv@Numbers:12:12 @ Please do not let her be as one dead, whose flesh is half consum ed when he comes out of his mother's womb!"

nkjv@Numbers:13:16 @ These are the names of the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses call ed Hoshea the son of Nun, Joshua.

nkjv@Numbers:13:23 @ Then they came to the Valley of Eshcol, and there cut down a branch with one cluster of grapes; they carri ed it between two of them on a pole. They also brought some of the pomegranates and figs.

nkjv@Numbers:20:28 @ Moses stripp ed Aaron of his garments and put them on Eleazar his son; and Aaron di ed there on the top of the mountain. Then Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.

nkjv@Numbers:20:29 @ Now when all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, all the house of Israel mourn ed for Aaron thirty days.

nkjv@Numbers:21:2 @ So Israel made a vow to the LORD, and said, "If You will inde ed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities."

nkjv@Numbers:21:3 @ And the LORD listen ed to the voice of Israel and deliver ed up the Canaanites, and they utterly destroy ed them and their cities. So the name of that place was call ed Hormah.

nkjv@Numbers:21:4 @ Then they journey ed from Mount Hor by the Way of the R ed Sea, to go around the land of Edom; and the soul of the people became very discourag ed on the way.

nkjv@Numbers:21:6 @ So the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many of the people of Israel di ed.

nkjv@Numbers:21:7 @ Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, "We have sinn ed, for we have spoken against the LORD and against you; pray to the LORD that He take away the serpents from us." So Moses pray ed for the people.

nkjv@Numbers:21:9 @ So Moses made a bronze serpent, and put it on a pole; and so it was, if a serpent had bitten anyone, when he look ed at the bronze serpent, he liv ed.

nkjv@Numbers:21:13 @ From there they mov ed and camp ed on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness that extends from the border of the Amorites; for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.

nkjv@Numbers:21:22 @ "Let me pass through your land. We will not turn aside into fields or vineyards; we will not drink water from wells. We will go by the King's Highway until we have pass ed through your territory."

nkjv@Numbers:21:23 @ But Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his territory. So Sihon gather ed all his people together and went out against Israel in the wilderness, and he came to Jahaz and fought against Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:21:24 @ Then Israel defeat ed him with the edge of the sword, and took possession of his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, as far as the people of Ammon; for the border of the people of Ammon was fortifi ed.

nkjv@Numbers:22:22 @ Then God's anger was arous ed because he went, and the Angel of the LORD took His stand in the way as an adversary against him. And he was riding on his donkey, and his two servants were with him.

nkjv@Numbers:22:23 @ Now the donkey saw the Angel of the LORD standing in the way with His drawn sword in His hand, and the donkey turn ed aside out of the way and went into the field. So Balaam struck the donkey to turn her back onto the road.

nkjv@Numbers:22:25 @ And when the donkey saw the Angel of the LORD, she push ed herself against the wall and crush ed Balaam's foot against the wall; so he struck her again.

nkjv@Numbers:22:27 @ And when the donkey saw the Angel of the LORD, she lay down under Balaam; so Balaam's anger was arous ed, and he struck the donkey with his staff.

nkjv@Numbers:22:28 @ Then the LORD open ed the mouth of the donkey, and she said to Balaam, "What have I done to you, that you have struck me these three times?"

nkjv@Numbers:22:31 @ Then the LORD open ed Balaam's eyes, and he saw the Angel of the LORD standing in the way with His drawn sword in His hand; and he bow ed his head and fell flat on his face.

nkjv@Numbers:22:33 @ The donkey saw Me and turn ed aside from Me these three times. If she had not turn ed aside from Me, surely I would also have kill ed you by now, and let her live."

nkjv@Numbers:22:34 @ And Balaam said to the Angel of the LORD, "I have sinn ed, for I did not know You stood in the way against me. Now therefore, if it displeases You, I will turn back."

nkjv@Numbers:22:40 @ Then Balak offer ed oxen and sheep, and he sent some to Balaam and to the princes who were with him.

nkjv@Numbers:23:2 @ And Balak did just as Balaam had spoken, and Balak and Balaam offer ed a bull and a ram on each altar.

nkjv@Numbers:23:4 @ And God met Balaam, and he said to Him, "I have prepar ed the seven altars, and I have offer ed on each altar a bull and a ram."

nkjv@Numbers:23:8 @ "How shall I curse whom God has not curs ed? And how shall I denounce whom the LORD has not denounc ed?

nkjv@Numbers:23:12 @ So he answer ed and said, "Must I not take he ed to speak what the LORD has put in my mouth?"

nkjv@Numbers:23:14 @ So he brought him to the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offer ed a bull and a ram on each altar.

nkjv@Joshua:3:8 @ You shall command the priests who bear the ark of the covenant, saying, "When you have come to the edge of the water of the Jordan, you shall stand in the Jordan."'

nkjv@Joshua:3:15 @ and as those who bore the ark came to the Jordan, and the feet of the priests who bore the ark dipp ed in the edge of the water (for the Jordan overflows all its banks during the whole time of harvest),

nkjv@Joshua:3:16 @ that the waters which came down from upstream stood still, and rose in a heap very far away at Adam, the city that is beside Zaretan. So the waters that went down into the Sea of the Arabah, the Salt Sea, fail ed, and were cut off; and the people cross ed over opposite Jericho.

nkjv@Joshua:3:17 @ Then the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan; and all Israel cross ed over on dry ground, until all the people had cross ed completely over the Jordan.

nkjv@Joshua:4:1 @ And it came to pass, when all the people had completely cross ed over the Jordan, that the LORD spoke to Joshua, saying:

nkjv@Joshua:4:4 @ Then Joshua call ed the twelve men whom he had appoint ed from the children of Israel, one man from every tribe;

nkjv@Joshua:4:7 @ Then you shall answer them that the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD; when it cross ed over the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan were cut off. And these stones shall be for a memorial to the children of Israel forever."

nkjv@Joshua:4:8 @ And the children of Israel did so, just as Joshua command ed, and took up twelve stones from the midst of the Jordan, as the LORD had spoken to Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel, and carri ed them over with them to the place where they lodg ed, and laid them down there.

nkjv@Joshua:4:10 @ So the priests who bore the ark stood in the midst of the Jordan until everything was finish ed that the LORD had command ed Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses had command ed Joshua; and the people hurri ed and cross ed over.

nkjv@Joshua:4:11 @ Then it came to pass, when all the people had completely cross ed over, that the ark of the LORD and the priests cross ed over in the presence of the people.

nkjv@Joshua:4:12 @ And the men of Reuben, the men of Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh cross ed over arm ed before the children of Israel, as Moses had spoken to them.

nkjv@Joshua:4:13 @ About forty thousand prepar ed for war cross ed over before the LORD for battle, to the plains of Jericho.

nkjv@Joshua:4:14 @ On that day the LORD exalt ed Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they fear ed him, as they had fear ed Moses, all the days of his life.

nkjv@Joshua:4:17 @ Joshua therefore command ed the priests, saying, "Come up from the Jordan."

nkjv@Joshua:4:18 @ And it came to pass, when the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD had come from the midst of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests' feet touch ed the dry land, that the waters of the Jordan return ed to their place and overflow ed all its banks as before.

nkjv@Joshua:4:19 @ Now the people came up from the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, and they camp ed in Gilgal on the east border of Jericho.

nkjv@Joshua:4:22 @ then you shall let your children know, saying, "Israel cross ed over this Jordan on dry land';

nkjv@Joshua:4:23 @ for the LORD your God dri ed up the waters of the Jordan before you until you had cross ed over, as the LORD your God did to the R ed Sea, which He dri ed up before us until we had cross ed over,

nkjv@Joshua:5:1 @ So it was, when all the kings of the Amorites who were on the west side of the Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard that the LORD had dri ed up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel until we had cross ed over, that their heart melt ed; and there was no spirit in them any longer because of the children of Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:5:3 @ So Joshua made flint knives for himself, and circumcis ed the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.

nkjv@Joshua:5:4 @ And this is the reason why Joshua circumcis ed them: All the people who came out of Egypt who were males, all the men of war, had di ed in the wilderness on the way, after they had come out of Egypt.

nkjv@Joshua:5:5 @ For all the people who came out had been circumcis ed, but all the people born in the wilderness, on the way as they came out of Egypt, had not been circumcis ed.

nkjv@Joshua:5:6 @ For the children of Israel walk ed forty years in the wilderness, till all the people who were men of war, who came out of Egypt, were consum ed, because they did not obey the voice of the LORD--to whom the LORD swore that He would not show them the land which the LORD had sworn to their fathers that He would give us, "a land flowing with milk and honey."

nkjv@Joshua:5:7 @ Then Joshua circumcis ed their sons whom He rais ed up in their place; for they were uncircumcis ed, because they had not been circumcis ed on the way.

nkjv@Joshua:5:8 @ So it was, when they had finish ed circumcising all the people, that they stay ed in their places in the camp till they were heal ed.

nkjv@Joshua:5:9 @ Then the LORD said to Joshua, "This day I have roll ed away the reproach of Egypt from you." Therefore the name of the place is call ed Gilgal to this day.

nkjv@Joshua:5:10 @ Now the children of Israel camp ed in Gilgal, and kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at twilight on the plains of Jericho.

nkjv@Joshua:5:11 @ And they ate of the produce of the land on the day after the Passover, unleaven ed bread and parch ed grain, on the very same day.

nkjv@Joshua:5:12 @ Then the manna ceas ed on the day after they had eaten the produce of the land; and the children of Israel no longer had manna, but they ate the food of the land of Canaan that year.

nkjv@Joshua:5:13 @ And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lift ed his eyes and look ed, and behold, a Man stood opposite him with His sword drawn in His hand. And Joshua went to Him and said to Him, "Are You for us or for our adversaries?"

nkjv@Joshua:5:14 @ So He said, "No, but as Commander of the army of the LORD I have now come." And Joshua fell on his face to the earth and worship ed, and said to Him, "What does my Lord say to His servant?"

nkjv@Joshua:6:6 @ Then Joshua the son of Nun call ed the priests and said to them, "Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD."

nkjv@Joshua:6:7 @ And he said to the people, "Proce ed, and march around the city, and let him who is arm ed advance before the ark of the LORD."

nkjv@Joshua:6:8 @ So it was, when Joshua had spoken to the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the LORD advanc ed and blew the trumpets, and the ark of the covenant of the LORD follow ed them.

nkjv@Joshua:6:9 @ The arm ed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets, and the rear guard came after the ark, while the priests continu ed blowing the trumpets.

nkjv@Joshua:6:10 @ Now Joshua had command ed the people, saying, "You shall not shout or make any noise with your voice, nor shall a word proce ed out of your mouth, until the day I say to you, "Shout!' Then you shall shout."

nkjv@Joshua:6:11 @ So he had the ark of the LORD circle the city, going around it once. Then they came into the camp and lodg ed in the camp.

nkjv@Joshua:6:13 @ Then seven priests bearing seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD went on continually and blew with the trumpets. And the arm ed men went before them. But the rear guard came after the ark of the LORD, while the priests continu ed blowing the trumpets.

nkjv@Joshua:6:14 @ And the second day they march ed around the city once and return ed to the camp. So they did six days.

nkjv@Joshua:6:15 @ But it came to pass on the seventh day that they rose early, about the dawning of the day, and march ed around the city seven times in the same manner. On that day only they march ed around the city seven times.

nkjv@Joshua:6:16 @ And the seventh time it happen ed, when the priests blew the trumpets, that Joshua said to the people: "Shout, for the LORD has given you the city!

nkjv@Joshua:6:17 @ Now the city shall be doom ed by the LORD to destruction, it and all who are in it. Only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.

nkjv@Joshua:6:18 @ And you, by all means abstain from the accurs ed things, lest you become accurs ed when you take of the accurs ed things, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.

nkjv@Joshua:6:19 @ But all the silver and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron, are consecrat ed to the LORD; they shall come into the treasury of the LORD."

nkjv@Joshua:6:20 @ So the people shout ed when the priests blew the trumpets. And it happen ed when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shout ed with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat. Then the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

nkjv@Joshua:6:21 @ And they utterly destroy ed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, ox and sheep and donkey, with the edge of the sword.

nkjv@Joshua:6:22 @ But Joshua had said to the two men who had spi ed out the country, "Go into the harlot's house, and from there bring out the woman and all that she has, as you swore to her."

nkjv@Joshua:6:24 @ But they burn ed the city and all that was in it with fire. Only the silver and gold, and the vessels of bronze and iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the LORD.

nkjv@Joshua:6:25 @ And Joshua spar ed Rahab the harlot, her father's household, and all that she had. So she dwells in Israel to this day, because she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

nkjv@Joshua:6:26 @ Then Joshua charg ed them at that time, saying, "Curs ed be the man before the LORD who rises up and builds this city Jericho; he shall lay its foundation with his firstborn, and with his youngest he shall set up its gates."

nkjv@Joshua:7:1 @ But the children of Israel committ ed a trespass regarding the accurs ed things, for Achan the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took of the accurs ed things; so the anger of the LORD burn ed against the children of Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:7:2 @ Now Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is beside Beth Aven, on the east side of Bethel, and spoke to them, saying, "Go up and spy out the country." So the men went up and spi ed out Ai.

nkjv@Joshua:7:3 @ And they return ed to Joshua and said to him, "Do not let all the people go up, but let about two or three thousand men go up and attack Ai. Do not weary all the people there, for the people of Ai are few."

nkjv@Joshua:7:4 @ So about three thousand men went up there from the people, but they fl ed before the men of Ai.

nkjv@Joshua:7:5 @ And the men of Ai struck down about thirty-six men, for they chas ed them from before the gate as far as Shebarim, and struck them down on the descent; therefore the hearts of the people melt ed and became like water.

nkjv@Joshua:7:11 @ Israel has sinn ed, and they have also transgress ed My covenant which I command ed them. For they have even taken some of the accurs ed things, and have both stolen and deceiv ed; and they have also put it among their own stuff.

nkjv@Joshua:7:12 @ Therefore the children of Israel could not stand before their enemies, but turn ed their backs before their enemies, because they have become doom ed to destruction. Neither will I be with you anymore, unless you destroy the accurs ed from among you.

nkjv@Joshua:7:13 @ Get up, sanctify the people, and say, "Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, because thus says the LORD God of Israel: "There is an accurs ed thing in your midst, O Israel; you cannot stand before your enemies until you take away the accurs ed thing from among you."

nkjv@Joshua:7:15 @ Then it shall be that he who is taken with the accurs ed thing shall be burn ed with fire, he and all that he has, because he has transgress ed the covenant of the LORD, and because he has done a disgraceful thing in Israel."'

nkjv@Joshua:7:20 @ And Achan answer ed Joshua and said, "Inde ed I have sinn ed against the LORD God of Israel, and this is what I have done:

nkjv@Joshua:7:21 @ When I saw among the spoils a beautiful Babylonian garment, two hundr ed shekels of silver, and a w edge of gold weighing fifty shekels, I covet ed them and took them. And there they are, hidden in the earth in the midst of my tent, with the silver under it."

nkjv@Joshua:7:24 @ Then Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, the silver, the garment, the w edge of gold, his sons, his daughters, his oxen, his donkeys, his sheep, his tent, and all that he had, and they brought them to the Valley of Achor.

nkjv@Joshua:7:25 @ And Joshua said, "Why have you troubl ed us? The LORD will trouble you this day." So all Israel ston ed him with stones; and they burn ed them with fire after they had ston ed them with stones.

nkjv@Joshua:7:26 @ Then they rais ed over him a great heap of stones, still there to this day. So the LORD turn ed from the fierceness of His anger. Therefore the name of that place has been call ed the Valley of Achor to this day.

nkjv@Joshua:8:1 @ Now the LORD said to Joshua: "Do not be afraid, nor be dismay ed; take all the people of war with you, and arise, go up to Ai. See, I have given into your hand the king of Ai, his people, his city, and his land.

nkjv@Joshua:8:4 @ And he command ed them, saying: "Behold, you shall lie in ambush against the city, behind the city. Do not go very far from the city, but all of you be ready.

nkjv@Joshua:8:8 @ And it will be, when you have taken the city, that you shall set the city on fire. According to the commandment of the LORD you shall do. See, I have command ed you."

nkjv@Joshua:8:9 @ Joshua therefore sent them out; and they went to lie in ambush, and stay ed between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of Ai; but Joshua lodg ed that night among the people.

nkjv@Joshua:8:10 @ Then Joshua rose up early in the morning and muster ed the people, and went up, he and the elders of Israel, before the people to Ai.

nkjv@Joshua:8:11 @ And all the people of war who were with him went up and drew near; and they came before the city and camp ed on the north side of Ai. Now a valley lay between them and Ai.

nkjv@Joshua:8:14 @ Now it happen ed, when the king of Ai saw it, that the men of the city hurri ed and rose early and went out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at an appoint ed place before the plain. But he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.

nkjv@Joshua:8:15 @ And Joshua and all Israel made as if they were beaten before them, and fl ed by the way of the wilderness.

nkjv@Joshua:8:16 @ So all the people who were in Ai were call ed together to pursue them. And they pursu ed Joshua and were drawn away from the city.

nkjv@Joshua:8:17 @ There was not a man left in Ai or Bethel who did not go out after Israel. So they left the city open and pursu ed Israel.

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

nkjv@Joshua:8:19 @ So those in ambush arose quickly out of their place; they ran as soon as he had stretch ed out his hand, and they enter ed the city and took it, and hurri ed to set the city on fire.

nkjv@Joshua:8:20 @ And when the men of Ai look ed behind them, they saw, and behold, the smoke of the city ascend ed to heaven. So they had no power to flee this way or that way, and the people who had fl ed to the wilderness turn ed back on the pursuers.

nkjv@Joshua:8:21 @ Now when Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city and that the smoke of the city ascend ed, they turn ed back and struck down the men of Ai.

nkjv@Joshua:8:24 @ And it came to pass when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness where they pursu ed them, and when they all had fallen by the edge of the sword until they were consum ed, that all the Israelites return ed to Ai and struck it with the edge of the sword.

nkjv@Joshua:8:26 @ For Joshua did not draw back his hand, with which he stretch ed out the spear, until he had utterly destroy ed all the inhabitants of Ai.

nkjv@Joshua:8:27 @ Only the livestock and the spoil of that city Israel took as booty for themselves, according to the word of the LORD which He had command ed Joshua.

nkjv@Joshua:8:33 @ Then all Israel, with their elders and officers and judges, stood on either side of the ark before the priests, the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD, the stranger as well as he who was born among them.

nkjv@Joshua:24:2 @ And Joshua said to all the people, "Thus says the LORD God of Israel: "Your fathers, including Terah, the father of Abraham and the father of Nahor, dwelt on the other side of the River in old times; and they serv ed other gods.

nkjv@Joshua:24:7 @ So they cri ed out to the LORD; and He put darkness between you and the Egyptians, brought the sea upon them, and cover ed them. And your eyes saw what I did in Egypt. Then you dwelt in the wilderness a long time.

nkjv@Joshua:24:8 @ And I brought you into the land of the Amorites, who dwelt on the other side of the Jordan, and they fought with you. But I gave them into your hand, that you might possess their land, and I destroy ed them from before you.

nkjv@Joshua:24:9 @ Then Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, arose to make war against Israel, and sent and call ed Balaam the son of Beor to curse you.

nkjv@Joshua:24:10 @ But I would not listen to Balaam; therefore he continu ed to bless you. So I deliver ed you out of his hand.

nkjv@Joshua:24:11 @ Then you went over the Jordan and came to Jericho. And the men of Jericho fought against you--also the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Girgashites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. But I deliver ed them into your hand.

nkjv@Joshua:24:14 @ "Now therefore, fear the LORD, serve Him in sincerity and in truth, and put away the gods which your fathers serv ed on the other side of the River and in Egypt. Serve the LORD!

nkjv@Judges:1:7 @ And Adoni-Bezek said, "Seventy kings with their thumbs and big toes cut off us ed to gather scraps under my table; as I have done, so God has repaid me." Then they brought him to Jerusalem, and there he di ed.

nkjv@Judges:1:8 @ Now the children of Judah fought against Jerusalem and took it; they struck it with the edge of the sword and set the city on fire.

nkjv@Judges:1:10 @ Then Judah went against the Canaanites who dwelt in Hebron. (Now the name of Hebron was formerly Kirjath Arba.) And they kill ed Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.

nkjv@Judges:1:20 @ And they gave Hebron to Caleb, as Moses had said. Then he expell ed from there the three sons of Anak.

nkjv@Judges:1:21 @ But the children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites who inhabit ed Jerusalem; so the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.

nkjv@Judges:1:25 @ So he show ed them the entrance to the city, and they struck the city with the edge of the sword; but they let the man and all his family go.

nkjv@Judges:1:26 @ And the man went to the land of the Hittites, built a city, and call ed its name Luz, which is its name to this day.

nkjv@Judges:1:34 @ And the Amorites forc ed the children of Dan into the mountains, for they would not allow them to come down to the valley;

nkjv@Judges:1:35 @ and the Amorites were determin ed to dwell in Mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim; yet when the strength of the house of Joseph became greater, they were put under tribute.

nkjv@Judges:3:6 @ And they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their daughters to their sons; and they serv ed their gods.

nkjv@Judges:3:7 @ So the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD. They forgot the LORD their God, and serv ed the Baals and Asherahs.

nkjv@Judges:3:8 @ Therefore the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and He sold them into the hand of Cushan-Rishathaim king of Mesopotamia; and the children of Israel serv ed Cushan-Rishathaim eight years.

nkjv@Judges:3:9 @ When the children of Israel cri ed out to the LORD, the LORD rais ed up a deliverer for the children of Israel, who deliver ed them: Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother.

nkjv@Judges:6:24 @ So Gideon built an altar there to the LORD, and call ed it The-LORD-Is-Peace. To this day it is still in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

nkjv@Judges:6:27 @ So Gideon took ten men from among his servants and did as the LORD had said to him. But because he fear ed his father's household and the men of the city too much to do it by day, he did it by night.

nkjv@Judges:6:28 @ And when the men of the city arose early in the morning, there was the altar of Baal, torn down; and the wooden image that was beside it was cut down, and the second bull was being offer ed on the altar which had been built.

nkjv@Judges:6:29 @ So they said to one another, "Who has done this thing?" And when they had inquir ed and ask ed, they said, "Gideon the son of Joash has done this thing."

nkjv@Judges:6:32 @ Therefore on that day he call ed him Jerubbaal, saying, "Let Baal plead against him, because he has torn down his altar."

nkjv@Judges:6:33 @ Then all the Midianites and Amalekites, the people of the East, gather ed together; and they cross ed over and encamp ed in the Valley of Jezreel.

nkjv@Judges:6:34 @ But the Spirit of the LORD came upon Gideon; then he blew the trumpet, and the Abiezrites gather ed behind him.

nkjv@Judges:6:35 @ And he sent messengers throughout all Manasseh, who also gather ed behind him. He also sent messengers to Asher, Zebulun, and Naphtali; and they came up to meet them.

nkjv@Judges:6:38 @ And it was so. When he rose early the next morning and squeez ed the fleece together, he wrung the dew out of the fleece, a bowlful of water.

nkjv@Judges:7:1 @ Then Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the people who were with him rose early and encamp ed beside the well of Harod, so that the camp of the Midianites was on the north side of them by the hill of Moreh in the valley.

nkjv@Judges:7:2 @ And the LORD said to Gideon, "The people who are with you are too many for Me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel claim glory for itself against Me, saying, "My own hand has sav ed me.'

nkjv@Judges:7:3 @ Now therefore, proclaim in the hearing of the people, saying, "Whoever is fearful and afraid, let him turn and depart at once from Mount Gilead."' And twenty-two thousand of the people return ed, and ten thousand remain ed.

nkjv@Judges:7:6 @ And the number of those who lapp ed, putting their hand to their mouth, was three hundr ed men; but all the rest of the people got down on their knees to drink water.

nkjv@Judges:7:7 @ Then the LORD said to Gideon, "By the three hundr ed men who lapp ed I will save you, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, every man to his place."

nkjv@Judges:7:8 @ So the people took provisions and their trumpets in their hands. And he sent away all the rest of Israel, every man to his tent, and retain ed those three hundr ed men. Now the camp of Midian was below him in the valley.

nkjv@Judges:7:9 @ It happen ed on the same night that the LORD said to him, "Arise, go down against the camp, for I have deliver ed it into your hand.

nkjv@Judges:7:11 @ and you shall hear what they say; and afterward your hands shall be strengthen ed to go down against the camp." Then he went down with Purah his servant to the outpost of the arm ed men who were in the camp.

nkjv@Judges:7:13 @ And when Gideon had come, there was a man telling a dream to his companion. He said, "I have had a dream: To my surprise, a loaf of barley bread tumbl ed into the camp of Midian; it came to a tent and struck it so that it fell and overturn ed, and the tent collaps ed."

nkjv@Judges:7:14 @ Then his companion answer ed and said, "This is nothing else but the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel! Into his hand God has deliver ed Midian and the whole camp."

nkjv@Judges:7:15 @ And so it was, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, that he worship ed. He return ed to the camp of Israel, and said, "Arise, for the LORD has deliver ed the camp of Midian into your hand."

nkjv@Judges:7:16 @ Then he divid ed the three hundr ed men into three companies, and he put a trumpet into every man's hand, with empty pitchers, and torches inside the pitchers.

nkjv@Judges:7:17 @ And he said to them, "Look at me and do likewise; watch, and when I come to the edge of the camp you shall do as I do:

nkjv@Judges:7:19 @ So Gideon and the hundr ed men who were with him came to the outpost of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, just as they had post ed the watch; and they blew the trumpets and broke the pitchers that were in their hands.

nkjv@Judges:7:21 @ And every man stood in his place all around the camp; and the whole army ran and cri ed out and fl ed.

nkjv@Judges:7:22 @ When the three hundr ed blew the trumpets, the LORD set every man's sword against his companion throughout the whole camp; and the army fl ed to Beth Acacia, toward Zererah, as far as the border of Abel Meholah, by Tabbath.

nkjv@Judges:7:23 @ And the men of Israel gather ed together from Naphtali, Asher, and all Manasseh, and pursu ed the Midianites.

nkjv@Judges:7:24 @ Then Gideon sent messengers throughout all the mountains of Ephraim, saying, "Come down against the Midianites, and seize from them the watering places as far as Beth Barah and the Jordan." Then all the men of Ephraim gather ed together and seiz ed the watering places as far as Beth Barah and the Jordan.

nkjv@Judges:7:25 @ And they captur ed two princes of the Midianites, Oreb and Zeeb. They kill ed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they kill ed at the winepress of Zeeb. They pursu ed Midian and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side of the Jordan.

nkjv@Judges:8:1 @ Now the men of Ephraim said to him, "Why have you done this to us by not calling us when you went to fight with the Midianites?" And they reprimand ed him sharply.

nkjv@Judges:8:3 @ God has deliver ed into your hands the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb. And what was I able to do in comparison with you?" Then their anger toward him subsid ed when he said that.

nkjv@Judges:8:4 @ When Gideon came to the Jordan, he and the three hundr ed men who were with him cross ed over, exhaust ed but still in pursuit.

nkjv@Judges:8:5 @ Then he said to the men of Succoth, "Please give loaves of bread to the people who follow me, for they are exhaust ed, and I am pursuing Zebah and Zalmunna, kings of Midian."

nkjv@Judges:8:7 @ So Gideon said, "For this cause, when the LORD has deliver ed Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand, then I will tear your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness and with briers!"

nkjv@Judges:8:8 @ Then he went up from there to Penuel and spoke to them in the same way. And the men of Penuel answer ed him as the men of Succoth had answer ed.

nkjv@Judges:8:10 @ Now Zebah and Zalmunna were at Karkor, and their armies with them, about fifteen thousand, all who were left of all the army of the people of the East; for one hundr ed and twenty thousand men who drew the sword had fallen.

nkjv@Judges:8:11 @ Then Gideon went up by the road of those who dwell in tents on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah; and he attack ed the army while the camp felt secure.

nkjv@Judges:8:12 @ When Zebah and Zalmunna fl ed, he pursu ed them; and he took the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and rout ed the whole army.

nkjv@Judges:8:13 @ Then Gideon the son of Joash return ed from battle, from the Ascent of Heres.

nkjv@Judges:8:14 @ And he caught a young man of the men of Succoth and interrogat ed him; and he wrote down for him the leaders of Succoth and its elders, seventy-seven men.

nkjv@Judges:8:15 @ Then he came to the men of Succoth and said, "Here are Zebah and Zalmunna, about whom you ridicul ed me, saying, "Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand, that we should give bread to your weary men?"'

nkjv@Judges:8:17 @ Then he tore down the tower of Penuel and kill ed the men of the city.

nkjv@Judges:8:18 @ And he said to Zebah and Zalmunna, "What kind of men were they whom you kill ed at Tabor?" So they answer ed, "As you are, so were they; each one resembl ed the son of a king."

nkjv@Judges:8:21 @ So Zebah and Zalmunna said, "Rise yourself, and kill us; for as a man is, so is his strength." So Gideon arose and kill ed Zebah and Zalmunna, and took the crescent ornaments that were on their camels' necks.

nkjv@Judges:8:22 @ Then the men of Israel said to Gideon, "Rule over us, both you and your son, and your grandson also; for you have deliver ed us from the hand of Midian."

nkjv@Judges:8:25 @ So they answer ed, "We will gladly give them." And they spread out a garment, and each man threw into it the earrings from his plunder.

nkjv@Judges:8:26 @ Now the weight of the gold earrings that he request ed was one thousand seven hundr ed shekels of gold, besides the crescent ornaments, pendants, and purple robes which were on the kings of Midian, and besides the chains that were around their camels' necks.

nkjv@Judges:8:27 @ Then Gideon made it into an ephod and set it up in his city, Ophrah. And all Israel play ed the harlot with it there. It became a snare to Gideon and to his house.

nkjv@Judges:8:28 @ Thus Midian was subdu ed before the children of Israel, so that they lift ed their heads no more. And the country was quiet for forty years in the days of Gideon.

nkjv@Judges:8:31 @ And his concubine who was in Shechem also bore him a son, whose name he call ed Abimelech.

nkjv@Judges:8:32 @ Now Gideon the son of Joash di ed at a good old age, and was buri ed in the tomb of Joash his father, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.

nkjv@Judges:8:33 @ So it was, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the children of Israel again play ed the harlot with the Baals, and made Baal-Berith their god.

nkjv@Judges:8:34 @ Thus the children of Israel did not remember the LORD their God, who had deliver ed them from the hands of all their enemies on every side;

nkjv@Judges:9:4 @ So they gave him seventy shekels of silver from the temple of Baal-Berith, with which Abimelech hir ed worthless and reckless men; and they follow ed him.

nkjv@Judges:9:5 @ Then he went to his father's house at Ophrah and kill ed his brothers, the seventy sons of Jerubbaal, on one stone. But Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left, because he hid himself.

nkjv@Judges:9:6 @ And all the men of Shechem gather ed together, all of Beth Millo, and they went and made Abimelech king beside the terebinth tree at the pillar that was in Shechem.

nkjv@Judges:9:7 @ Now when they told Jotham, he went and stood on top of Mount Gerizim, and lift ed his voice and cri ed out. And he said to them: "Listen to me, you men of Shechem, That God may listen to you!

nkjv@Judges:9:26 @ Now Gaal the son of Eb ed came with his brothers and went over to Shechem; and the men of Shechem put their confidence in him.

nkjv@Judges:9:27 @ So they went out into the fields, and gather ed grapes from their vineyards and trod them, and made merry. And they went into the house of their god, and ate and drank, and curs ed Abimelech.

nkjv@Judges:9:28 @ Then Gaal the son of Eb ed said, "Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerubbaal, and is not Zebul his officer? Serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem; but why should we serve him?

nkjv@Judges:9:30 @ When Zebul, the ruler of the city, heard the words of Gaal the son of Eb ed, his anger was arous ed.

nkjv@Judges:9:31 @ And he sent messengers to Abimelech secretly, saying, "Take note! Gaal the son of Eb ed and his brothers have come to Shechem; and here they are, fortifying the city against you.

nkjv@Judges:9:35 @ When Gaal the son of Eb ed went out and stood in the entrance to the city gate, Abimelech and the people who were with him rose from lying in wait.

nkjv@Judges:9:38 @ Then Zebul said to him, "Where inde ed is your mouth now, with which you said, "Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him?' Are not these the people whom you despis ed? Go out, if you will, and fight with them now."

nkjv@Judges:9:40 @ And Abimelech chas ed him, and he fl ed from him; and many fell wound ed, to the very entrance of the gate.

nkjv@Judges:9:43 @ So he took his people, divid ed them into three companies, and lay in wait in the field. And he look ed, and there were the people, coming out of the city; and he rose against them and attack ed them.

nkjv@Judges:9:44 @ Then Abimelech and the company that was with him rush ed forward and stood at the entrance of the gate of the city; and the other two companies rush ed upon all who were in the fields and kill ed them.

nkjv@Judges:9:45 @ So Abimelech fought against the city all that day; he took the city and kill ed the people who were in it; and he demolish ed the city and sow ed it with salt.

nkjv@Judges:9:46 @ Now when all the men of the tower of Shechem had heard that, they enter ed the stronghold of the temple of the god Berith.

nkjv@Judges:9:47 @ And it was told Abimelech that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gather ed together.

nkjv@Judges:9:49 @ So each of the people likewise cut down his own bough and follow ed Abimelech, put them against the stronghold, and set the stronghold on fire above them, so that all the people of the tower of Shechem di ed, about a thousand men and women.

nkjv@Judges:9:50 @ Then Abimelech went to Thebez, and he encamp ed against Thebez and took it.

nkjv@Judges:9:51 @ But there was a strong tower in the city, and all the men and women--all the people of the city--fl ed there and shut themselves in; then they went up to the top of the tower.

nkjv@Judges:9:53 @ But a certain woman dropp ed an upper millstone on Abimelech's head and crush ed his skull.

nkjv@Judges:9:54 @ Then he call ed quickly to the young man, his armorbearer, and said to him, "Draw your sword and kill me, lest men say of me, "A woman kill ed him."' So his young man thrust him through, and he di ed.

nkjv@Judges:9:55 @ And when the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, they depart ed, every man to his place.

nkjv@Judges:9:56 @ Thus God repaid the wick edness of Abimelech, which he had done to his father by killing his seventy brothers.

nkjv@Judges:9:57 @ And all the evil of the men of Shechem God return ed on their own heads, and on them came the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal.

nkjv@Judges:14:17 @ Now she had wept on him the seven days while their feast last ed. And it happen ed on the seventh day that he told her, because she press ed him so much. Then she explain ed the riddle to the sons of her people.

nkjv@Judges:14:19 @ Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon him mightily, and he went down to Ashkelon and kill ed thirty of their men, took their apparel, and gave the changes of clothing to those who had explain ed the riddle. So his anger was arous ed, and he went back up to his father's house.

nkjv@Judges:15:1 @ After a while, in the time of wheat harvest, it happen ed that Samson visit ed his wife with a young goat. And he said, "Let me go in to my wife, into her room." But her father would not permit him to go in.

nkjv@Judges:15:10 @ And the men of Judah said, "Why have you come up against us?" So they answer ed, "We have come up to arrest Samson, to do to him as he has done to us."

nkjv@Judges:15:14 @ When he came to Lehi, the Philistines came shouting against him. Then the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him; and the ropes that were on his arms became like flax that is burn ed with fire, and his bonds broke loose from his hands.

nkjv@Judges:15:15 @ He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, reach ed out his hand and took it, and kill ed a thousand men with it.

nkjv@Judges:16:31 @ And his brothers and all his father's household came down and took him, and brought him up and buri ed him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the tomb of his father Manoah. He had judg ed Israel twenty years.

nkjv@Ruth:2:10 @ So she fell on her face, bow ed down to the ground, and said to him, "Why have I found favor in your eyes, that you should take notice of me, since I am a foreigner?"

nkjv@1Samuel:17:35 @ I went out after it and struck it, and deliver ed the lamb from its mouth; and when it arose against me, I caught it by its beard, and struck and kill ed it.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:36 @ Your servant has kill ed both lion and bear; and this uncircumcis ed Philistine will be like one of them, seeing he has defi ed the armies of the living God."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:37 @ Moreover David said, "The LORD, who deliver ed me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine." And Saul said to David, "Go, and the LORD be with you!"

nkjv@1Samuel:17:38 @ So Saul cloth ed David with his armor, and he put a bronze helmet on his head; he also cloth ed him with a coat of mail.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:39 @ David fasten ed his sword to his armor and tri ed to walk, for he had not test ed them. And David said to Saul, "I cannot walk with these, for I have not test ed them." So David took them off.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:42 @ And when the Philistine look ed about and saw David, he disdain ed him; for he was only a youth, ruddy and good-looking.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:43 @ So the Philistine said to David, "Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?" And the Philistine curs ed David by his gods.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:45 @ Then David said to the Philistine, "You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defi ed.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:48 @ So it was, when the Philistine arose and came and drew near to meet David, that David hurri ed and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:50 @ So David prevail ed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone, and struck the Philistine and kill ed him. But there was no sword in the hand of David.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:51 @ Therefore David ran and stood over the Philistine, took his sword and drew it out of its sheath and kill ed him, and cut off his head with it. And when the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fl ed.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:52 @ Now the men of Israel and Judah arose and shout ed, and pursu ed the Philistines as far as the entrance of the valley and to the gates of Ekron. And the wound ed of the Philistines fell along the road to Shaaraim, even as far as Gath and Ekron.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:53 @ Then the children of Israel return ed from chasing the Philistines, and they plunder ed their tents.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:57 @ Then, as David return ed from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:58 @ And Saul said to him, "Whose son are you, young man?" So David answer ed, "I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite."

nkjv@1Samuel:18:1 @ Now when he had finish ed speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan lov ed him as his own soul.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:3 @ Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he lov ed him as his own soul.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:5 @ So David went out wherever Saul sent him, and behav ed wisely. And Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accept ed in the sight of all the people and also in the sight of Saul's servants.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:6 @ Now it had happen ed as they were coming home, when David was returning from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women had come out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tambourines, with joy, and with musical instruments.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:7 @ So the women sang as they danc ed, and said: "Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands."

nkjv@1Samuel:18:8 @ Then Saul was very angry, and the saying displeas ed him; and he said, "They have ascrib ed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascrib ed only thousands. Now what more can he have but the kingdom?"

nkjv@1Samuel:18:9 @ So Saul ey ed David from that day forward.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:10 @ And it happen ed on the next day that the distressing spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesi ed inside the house. So David play ed music with his hand, as at other times; but there was a spear in Saul's hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:11 @ And Saul cast the spear, for he said, "I will pin David to the wall!" But David escap ed his presence twice.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:12 @ Now Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with him, but had depart ed from Saul.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:13 @ Therefore Saul remov ed him from his presence, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:14 @ And David behav ed wisely in all his ways, and the LORD was with him.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:15 @ Therefore, when Saul saw that he behav ed very wisely, he was afraid of him.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:16 @ But all Israel and Judah lov ed David, because he went out and came in before them.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:19 @ But it happen ed at the time when Merab, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as a wife.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:20 @ Now Michal, Saul's daughter, lov ed David. And they told Saul, and the thing pleas ed him.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:22 @ And Saul command ed his servants, "Communicate with David secretly, and say, "Look, the king has delight in you, and all his servants love you. Now therefore, become the king's son-in-law."'

nkjv@1Samuel:18:23 @ So Saul's servants spoke those words in the hearing of David. And David said, "Does it seem to you a light thing to be a king's son-in-law, seeing I am a poor and lightly esteem ed man?"

nkjv@1Samuel:18:25 @ Then Saul said, "Thus you shall say to David: "The king does not desire any dowry but one hundr ed foreskins of the Philistines, to take vengeance on the king's enemies."' But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:26 @ So when his servants told David these words, it pleas ed David well to become the king's son-in-law. Now the days had not expir ed;

nkjv@1Samuel:18:27 @ therefore David arose and went, he and his men, and kill ed two hundr ed men of the Philistines. And David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full count to the king, that he might become the king's son-in-law. Then Saul gave him Michal his daughter as a wife.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:28 @ Thus Saul saw and knew that the LORD was with David, and that Michal, Saul's daughter, lov ed him;

nkjv@1Samuel:18:30 @ Then the princes of the Philistines went out to war. And so it was, whenever they went out, that David behav ed more wisely than all the servants of Saul, so that his name became highly esteem ed.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:1 @ Now Saul spoke to Jonathan his son and to all his servants, that they should kill David; but Jonathan, Saul's son, delight ed greatly in David.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:4 @ Thus Jonathan spoke well of David to Saul his father, and said to him, "Let not the king sin against his servant, against David, because he has not sinn ed against you, and because his works have been very good toward you.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:5 @ For he took his life in his hands and kill ed the Philistine, and the LORD brought about a great deliverance for all Israel. You saw it and rejoic ed. Why then will you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?"

nkjv@1Samuel:19:6 @ So Saul he ed ed the voice of Jonathan, and Saul swore, "As the LORD lives, he shall not be kill ed."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:7 @ Then Jonathan call ed David, and Jonathan told him all these things. So Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as in times past.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:8 @ And there was war again; and David went out and fought with the Philistines, and struck them with a mighty blow, and they fl ed from him.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:10 @ Then Saul sought to pin David to the wall with the spear, but he slipp ed away from Saul's presence; and he drove the spear into the wall. So David fl ed and escap ed that night.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:11 @ Saul also sent messengers to David's house to watch him and to kill him in the morning. And Michal, David's wife, told him, saying, "If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be kill ed."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:12 @ So Michal let David down through a window. And he went and fl ed and escap ed.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:13 @ And Michal took an image and laid it in the b ed, put a cover of goats' hair for his head, and cover ed it with clothes.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:15 @ Then Saul sent the messengers back to see David, saying, "Bring him up to me in the b ed, that I may kill him."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:16 @ And when the messengers had come in, there was the image in the b ed, with a cover of goats' hair for his head.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:17 @ Then Saul said to Michal, "Why have you deceiv ed me like this, and sent my enemy away, so that he has escap ed?" And Michal answer ed Saul, "He said to me, "Let me go! Why should I kill you?"'

nkjv@1Samuel:19:18 @ So David fl ed and escap ed, and went to Samuel at Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and stay ed in Naioth.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:20 @ Then Saul sent messengers to take David. And when they saw the group of prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as leader over them, the Spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesi ed.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:21 @ And when Saul was told, he sent other messengers, and they prophesi ed likewise. Then Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesi ed also.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:22 @ Then he also went to Ramah, and came to the great well that is at Sechu. So he ask ed, and said, "Where are Samuel and David?" And someone said, "Inde ed they are at Naioth in Ramah."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:23 @ So he went there to Naioth in Ramah. Then the Spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on and prophesi ed until he came to Naioth in Ramah.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:24 @ And he also stripp ed off his clothes and prophesi ed before Samuel in like manner, and lay down nak ed all that day and all that night. Therefore they say, "Is Saul also among the prophets?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:1 @ Then David fl ed from Naioth in Ramah, and went and said to Jonathan, "What have I done? What is my iniquity, and what is my sin before your father, that he seeks my life?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:2 @ So Jonathan said to him, "By no means! You shall not die! Inde ed, my father will do nothing either great or small without first telling me. And why should my father hide this thing from me? It is not so!"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:3 @ Then David took an oath again, and said, "Your father certainly knows that I have found favor in your eyes, and he has said, "Do not let Jonathan know this, lest he be griev ed.' But truly, as the LORD lives and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:5 @ And David said to Jonathan, "Inde ed tomorrow is the New Moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king to eat. But let me go, that I may hide in the field until the third day at evening.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:6 @ If your father misses me at all, then say, "David earnestly ask ed permission of me that he might run over to Bethlehem, his city, for there is a yearly sacrifice there for all the family.'

nkjv@1Samuel:20:7 @ If he says thus: "It is well,' your servant will be safe. But if he is very angry, be sure that evil is determin ed by him.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:9 @ But Jonathan said, "Far be it from you! For if I knew certainly that evil was determin ed by my father to come upon you, then would I not tell you?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:12 @ Then Jonathan said to David: "The LORD God of Israel is witness! When I have sound ed out my father sometime tomorrow, or the third day, and inde ed there is good toward David, and I do not send to you and tell you,

nkjv@1Samuel:20:17 @ Now Jonathan again caus ed David to vow, because he lov ed him; for he lov ed him as he lov ed his own soul.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:18 @ Then Jonathan said to David, "Tomorrow is the New Moon; and you will be miss ed, because your seat will be empty.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:19 @ And when you have stay ed three days, go down quickly and come to the place where you hid on the day of the de ed; and remain by the stone Ezel.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:23 @ And as for the matter which you and I have spoken of, inde ed the LORD be between you and me forever."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:26 @ Nevertheless Saul did not say anything that day, for he thought, "Something has happen ed to him; he is unclean, surely he is unclean."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:27 @ And it happen ed the next day, the second day of the month, that David's place was empty. And Saul said to Jonathan his son, "Why has the son of Jesse not come to eat, either yesterday or today?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:28 @ So Jonathan answer ed Saul, "David earnestly ask ed permission of me to go to Bethlehem.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:29 @ And he said, "Please let me go, for our family has a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has command ed me to be there. And now, if I have found favor in your eyes, please let me get away and see my brothers.' Therefore he has not come to the king's table."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:30 @ Then Saul's anger was arous ed against Jonathan, and he said to him, "You son of a perverse, rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame and to the shame of your mother's nak edness?

nkjv@1Samuel:20:31 @ For as long as the son of Jesse lives on the earth, you shall not be establish ed, nor your kingdom. Now therefore, send and bring him to me, for he shall surely die."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:32 @ And Jonathan answer ed Saul his father, and said to him, "Why should he be kill ed? What has he done?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:33 @ Then Saul cast a spear at him to kill him, by which Jonathan knew that it was determin ed by his father to kill David.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:34 @ So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and ate no food the second day of the month, for he was griev ed for David, because his father had treat ed him shamefully.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:35 @ And so it was, in the morning, that Jonathan went out into the field at the time appoint ed with David, and a little lad was with him.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:37 @ When the lad had come to the place where the arrow was which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cri ed out after the lad and said, "Is not the arrow beyond you?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:38 @ And Jonathan cri ed out after the lad, "Make haste, hurry, do not delay!" So Jonathan's lad gather ed up the arrows and came back to his master.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:41 @ As soon as the lad had gone, David arose from a place toward the south, fell on his face to the ground, and bow ed down three times. And they kiss ed one another; and they wept together, but David more so.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:42 @ Then Jonathan said to David, "Go in peace, since we have both sworn in the name of the LORD, saying, "May the LORD be between you and me, and between your descendants and my descendants, forever."' So he arose and depart ed, and Jonathan went into the city.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:2 @ So David said to Ahimelech the priest, "The king has order ed me on some business, and said to me, "Do not let anyone know anything about the business on which I send you, or what I have command ed you.' And I have direct ed my young men to such and such a place.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:4 @ And the priest answer ed David and said, "There is no common bread on hand; but there is holy bread, if the young men have at least kept themselves from women."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:5 @ Then David answer ed the priest, and said to him, "Truly, women have been kept from us about three days since I came out. And the vessels of the young men are holy, and the bread is in effect common, even though it was consecrat ed in the vessel this day."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:7 @ Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detain ed before the LORD. And his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the chief of the herdsmen who belong ed to Saul.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:8 @ And David said to Ahimelech, "Is there not here on hand a spear or a sword? For I have brought neither my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business requir ed haste."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:9 @ So the priest said, "The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you kill ed in the Valley of Elah, there it is, wrapp ed in a cloth behind the ephod. If you will take that, take it. For there is no other except that one here." And David said, "There is none like it; give it to me."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:10 @ Then David arose and fl ed that day from before Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:13 @ So he chang ed his behavior before them, pretend ed madness in their hands, scratch ed on the doors of the gate, and let his saliva fall down on his beard.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:15 @ Have I ne ed of madmen, that you have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence? Shall this fellow come into my house?"

nkjv@1Samuel:22:1 @ David therefore depart ed from there and escap ed to the cave of Adullam. So when his brothers and all his father's house heard it, they went down there to him.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:2 @ And everyone who was in distress, everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontent ed gather ed to him. So he became captain over them. And there were about four hundr ed men with him.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:5 @ Now the prophet Gad said to David, "Do not stay in the stronghold; depart, and go to the land of Judah." So David depart ed and went into the forest of Hereth.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:6 @ When Saul heard that David and the men who were with him had been discover ed--now Saul was staying in Gibeah under a tamarisk tree in Ramah, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants standing about him--

nkjv@1Samuel:22:7 @ then Saul said to his servants who stood about him, "Hear now, you Benjamites! Will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, and make you all captains of thousands and captains of hundr eds?

nkjv@1Samuel:22:8 @ All of you have conspir ed against me, and there is no one who reveals to me that my son has made a covenant with the son of Jesse; and there is not one of you who is sorry for me or reveals to me that my son has stirr ed up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as it is this day."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:9 @ Then answer ed Doeg the Edomite, who was set over the servants of Saul, and said, "I saw the son of Jesse going to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:10 @ And he inquir ed of the LORD for him, gave him provisions, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:12 @ And Saul said, "Hear now, son of Ahitub!" He answer ed, "Here I am, my lord."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:13 @ Then Saul said to him, "Why have you conspir ed against me, you and the son of Jesse, in that you have given him bread and a sword, and have inquir ed of God for him, that he should rise against me, to lie in wait, as it is this day?"

nkjv@1Samuel:22:14 @ So Ahimelech answer ed the king and said, "And who among all your servants is as faithful as David, who is the king's son-in-law, who goes at your bidding, and is honorable in your house?

nkjv@1Samuel:22:17 @ Then the king said to the guards who stood about him, "Turn and kill the priests of the LORD, because their hand also is with David, and because they knew when he fl ed and did not tell it to me." But the servants of the king would not lift their hands to strike the priests of the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:18 @ And the king said to Doeg, "You turn and kill the priests!" So Doeg the Edomite turn ed and struck the priests, and kill ed on that day eighty-five men who wore a linen ephod.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:19 @ Also Nob, the city of the priests, he struck with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and nursing infants, oxen and donkeys and sheep--with the edge of the sword.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:20 @ Now one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, nam ed Abiathar, escap ed and fl ed after David.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:21 @ And Abiathar told David that Saul had kill ed the LORD's priests.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:22 @ So David said to Abiathar, "I knew that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. I have caus ed the death of all the persons of your father's house.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:2 @ Therefore David inquir ed of the LORD, saying, "Shall I go and attack these Philistines?" And the LORD said to David, "Go and attack the Philistines, and save Keilah."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:4 @ Then David inquir ed of the LORD once again. And the LORD answer ed him and said, "Arise, go down to Keilah. For I will deliver the Philistines into your hand."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:5 @ And David and his men went to Keilah and fought with the Philistines, struck them with a mighty blow, and took away their livestock. So David sav ed the inhabitants of Keilah.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:6 @ Now it happen ed, when Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fl ed to David at Keilah, that he went down with an ephod in his hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:7 @ And Saul was told that David had gone to Keilah. So Saul said, "God has deliver ed him into my hand, for he has shut himself in by entering a town that has gates and bars."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:8 @ Then Saul call ed all the people together for war, to go down to Keilah to besiege David and his men.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:9 @ When David knew that Saul plott ed evil against him, he said to Abiathar the priest, "Bring the ephod here."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:13 @ So David and his men, about six hundr ed, arose and depart ed from Keilah and went wherever they could go. Then it was told Saul that David had escap ed from Keilah; so he halt ed the exp edition.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:14 @ And David stay ed in strongholds in the wilderness, and remain ed in the mountains in the Wilderness of Ziph. Saul sought him every day, but God did not deliver him into his hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:16 @ Then Jonathan, Saul's son, arose and went to David in the woods and strengthen ed his hand in God.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:18 @ So the two of them made a covenant before the LORD. And David stay ed in the woods, and Jonathan went to his own house.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:21 @ And Saul said, "Bless ed are you of the LORD, for you have compassion on me.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:23 @ See therefore, and take knowl edge of all the lurking places where he hides; and come back to me with certainty, and I will go with you. And it shall be, if he is in the land, that I will search for him throughout all the clans of Judah."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:25 @ When Saul and his men went to seek him, they told David. Therefore he went down to the rock, and stay ed in the Wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard that, he pursu ed David in the Wilderness of Maon.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:27 @ But a messenger came to Saul, saying, "Hurry and come, for the Philistines have invad ed the land!"

nkjv@1Samuel:23:28 @ Therefore Saul return ed from pursuing David, and went against the Philistines; so they call ed that place the Rock of Escape.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:29 @ Then David went up from there and dwelt in strongholds at En G edi.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:1 @ Now it happen ed, when Saul had return ed from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, "Take note! David is in the Wilderness of En G edi."

nkjv@1Samuel:24:3 @ So he came to the sheepfolds by the road, where there was a cave; and Saul went in to attend to his ne eds. (David and his men were staying in the recesses of the cave.)

nkjv@1Samuel:24:5 @ Now it happen ed afterward that David's heart troubl ed him because he had cut Saul's robe.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:6 @ And he said to his men, "The LORD forbid that I should do this thing to my master, the LORD's anoint ed, to stretch out my hand against him, seeing he is the anoint ed of the LORD."

nkjv@1Samuel:24:7 @ So David restrain ed his servants with these words, and did not allow them to rise against Saul. And Saul got up from the cave and went on his way.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:8 @ David also arose afterward, went out of the cave, and call ed out to Saul, saying, "My lord the king!" And when Saul look ed behind him, David stoop ed with his face to the earth, and bow ed down.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:9 @ And David said to Saul: "Why do you listen to the words of men who say, "Inde ed David seeks your harm'?

nkjv@1Samuel:24:10 @ Look, this day your eyes have seen that the LORD deliver ed you today into my hand in the cave, and someone urg ed me to kill you. But my eye spar ed you, and I said, "I will not stretch out my hand against my lord, for he is the LORD's anoint ed.'

nkjv@1Samuel:24:11 @ Moreover, my father, see! Yes, see the corner of your robe in my hand! For in that I cut off the corner of your robe, and did not kill you, know and see that there is neither evil nor rebellion in my hand, and I have not sinn ed against you. Yet you hunt my life to take it.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:13 @ As the proverb of the ancients says, "Wick edness proce eds from the wick ed.' But my hand shall not be against you.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:16 @ So it was, when David had finish ed speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, "Is this your voice, my son David?" And Saul lift ed up his voice and wept.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:17 @ Then he said to David: "You are more righteous than I; for you have reward ed me with good, whereas I have reward ed you with evil.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:1 @ Then Samuel di ed; and the Israelites gather ed together and lament ed for him, and buri ed him at his home in Ramah. And David arose and went down to the Wilderness of Paran.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:4 @ And when the woman of Tekoa spoke to the king, she fell on her face to the ground and prostrat ed herself, and said, "Help, O king!"

nkjv@2Samuel:14:5 @ Then the king said to her, "What troubles you?" And she answer ed, "Inde ed I am a widow, my husband is dead.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:6 @ Now your maidservant had two sons; and the two fought with each other in the field, and there was no one to part them, but the one struck the other and kill ed him.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:7 @ And now the whole family has risen up against your maidservant, and they said, "Deliver him who struck his brother, that we may execute him for the life of his brother whom he kill ed; and we will destroy the heir also.' So they would extinguish my ember that is left, and leave to my husband neither name nor remnant on the earth."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:13 @ So the woman said: "Why then have you schem ed such a thing against the people of God? For the king speaks this thing as one who is guilty, in that the king does not bring his banish ed one home again.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:14 @ For we will surely die and become like water spill ed on the ground, which cannot be gather ed up again. Yet God does not take away a life; but He devises means, so that His banish ed ones are not expell ed from Him.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:18 @ Then the king answer ed and said to the woman, "Please do not hide from me anything that I ask you." And the woman said, "Please, let my lord the king speak."

And the woman answer ed and said, "As you live, my lord the king, no one can turn to the right hand or to the left from anything that my lord the king has spoken.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:24 @ And the king said, "Let him return to his own house, but do not let him see my face." So Absalom return ed to his own house, but did not see the king's face.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:25 @ Now in all Israel there was no one who was prais ed as much as Absalom for his good looks. From the sole of his foot to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:26 @ And when he cut the hair of his head--at the end of every year he cut it because it was heavy on him--when he cut it, he weigh ed the hair of his head at two hundr ed shekels according to the king's standard.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:32 @ And Absalom answer ed Joab, "Look, I sent to you, saying, "Come here, so that I may send you to the king, to say, "Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me to be there still."' Now therefore, let me see the king's face; but if there is iniquity in me, let him execute me."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:33 @ So Joab went to the king and told him. And when he had call ed for Absalom, he came to the king and bow ed himself on his face to the ground before the king. Then the king kiss ed Absalom.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:6 @ In this manner Absalom act ed toward all Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:8 @ For your servant took a vow while I dwelt at Geshur in Syria, saying, "If the LORD inde ed brings me back to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD."'

nkjv@2Samuel:15:11 @ And with Absalom went two hundr ed men invit ed from Jerusalem, and they went along innocently and did not know anything.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:12 @ Then Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city--from Giloh--while he offer ed sacrifices. And the conspiracy grew strong, for the people with Absalom continually increas ed in number.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:14 @ So David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, "Arise, and let us flee, or we shall not escape from Absalom. Make haste to depart, lest he overtake us suddenly and bring disaster upon us, and strike the city with the edge of the sword."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:21 @ But Ittai answer ed the king and said, "As the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in whatever place my lord the king shall be, whether in death or life, even there also your servant will be."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:22 @ So David said to Ittai, "Go, and cross over." Then Ittai the Gittite and all his men and all the little ones who were with him cross ed over.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:23 @ And all the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people cross ed over. The king himself also cross ed over the Brook Kidron, and all the people cross ed over toward the way of the wilderness.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:24 @ There was Zadok also, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God, and Abiathar went up until all the people had finish ed crossing over from the city.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:29 @ Therefore Zadok and Abiathar carri ed the ark of God back to Jerusalem. And they remain ed there.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:30 @ So David went up by the Ascent of the Mount of Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head cover ed and went barefoot. And all the people who were with him cover ed their heads and went up, weeping as they went up.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:32 @ Now it happen ed when David had come to the top of the mountain, where he worship ed God--there was Hushai the Archite coming to meet him with his robe torn and dust on his head.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:8 @ The LORD has brought upon you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reign ed; and the LORD has deliver ed the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son. So now you are caught in your own evil, because you are a bloodthirsty man!"

nkjv@2Samuel:16:13 @ And as David and his men went along the road, Shimei went along the hillside opposite him and curs ed as he went, threw stones at him and kick ed up dust.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:14 @ Now the king and all the people who were with him became weary; so they refresh ed themselves there.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:19 @ "Furthermore, whom should I serve? Should I not serve in the presence of his son? As I have serv ed in your father's presence, so will I be in your presence."

nkjv@2Samuel:16:21 @ And Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Go in to your father's concubines, whom he has left to keep the house; and all Israel will hear that you are abhorr ed by your father. Then the hands of all who are with you will be strong."

nkjv@2Samuel:16:22 @ So they pitch ed a tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and Absalom went in to his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:23 @ Now the advice of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if one had inquir ed at the oracle of God. So was all the advice of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:4 @ And the saying pleas ed Absalom and all the elders of Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:8 @ For," said Hushai, "you know your father and his men, that they are mighty men, and they are enrag ed in their minds, like a bear robb ed of her cubs in the field; and your father is a man of war, and will not camp with the people.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:11 @ Therefore I advise that all Israel be fully gather ed to you, from Dan to Beersheba, like the sand that is by the sea for multitude, and that you go to battle in person.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:14 @ So Absalom and all the men of Israel said, "The advice of Hushai the Archite is better than the advice of Ahithophel." For the LORD had purpos ed to defeat the good advice of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring disaster on Absalom.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:15 @ Then Hushai said to Zadok and Abiathar the priests, "Thus and so Ahithophel advis ed Absalom and the elders of Israel, and thus and so I have advis ed.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:16 @ Now therefore, send quickly and tell David, saying, "Do not spend this night in the plains of the wilderness, but spe edily cross over, lest the king and all the people who are with him be swallow ed up."'

nkjv@2Samuel:17:17 @ Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz stay ed at En Rogel, for they dar ed not be seen coming into the city; so a female servant would come and tell them, and they would go and tell King David.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:20 @ And when Absalom's servants came to the woman at the house, they said, "Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?" So the woman said to them, "They have gone over the water brook." And when they had search ed and could not find them, they return ed to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:21 @ Now it came to pass, after they had depart ed, that they came up out of the well and went and told King David, and said to David, "Arise and cross over the water quickly. For thus has Ahithophel advis ed against you."

nkjv@2Samuel:17:22 @ So David and all the people who were with him arose and cross ed over the Jordan. By morning light not one of them was left who had not gone over the Jordan.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:23 @ Now when Ahithophel saw that his advice was not follow ed, he saddl ed a donkey, and arose and went home to his house, to his city. Then he put his household in order, and hang ed himself, and di ed; and he was buri ed in his father's tomb.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:24 @ Then David went to Mahanaim. And Absalom cross ed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:26 @ So Israel and Absalom encamp ed in the land of Gilead.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:5 @ Now the king had command ed Joab, Abishai, and Ittai, saying, "Deal gently for my sake with the young man Absalom." And all the people heard when the king gave all the captains orders concerning Absalom.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:8 @ For the battle there was scatter ed over the face of the whole countryside, and the woods devour ed more people that day than the sword devour ed.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:12 @ But the man said to Joab, "Though I were to receive a thousand shekels of silver in my hand, I would not raise my hand against the king's son. For in our hearing the king command ed you and Abishai and Ittai, saying, "Beware lest anyone touch the young man Absalom!'

nkjv@2Samuel:18:18 @ Now Absalom in his lifetime had taken and set up a pillar for himself, which is in the King's Valley. For he said, "I have no son to keep my name in remembrance." He call ed the pillar after his own name. And to this day it is call ed Absalom's Monument.

nkjv@1Kings:6:9 @ So he built the temple and finish ed it, and he panel ed the temple with beams and boards of c edar.

nkjv@1Kings:6:10 @ And he built side chambers against the entire temple, each five cubits high; they were attach ed to the temple with c edar beams.

nkjv@1Kings:6:14 @ So Solomon built the temple and finish ed it.

nkjv@1Kings:6:15 @ And he built the inside walls of the temple with c edar boards; from the floor of the temple to the ceiling he panel ed the inside with wood; and he cover ed the floor of the temple with planks of cypress.

nkjv@1Kings:6:16 @ Then he built the twenty-cubit room at the rear of the temple, from floor to ceiling, with c edar boards; he built it inside as the inner sanctuary, as the Most Holy Place.

nkjv@1Kings:6:18 @ The inside of the temple was c edar, carv ed with ornamental buds and open flowers. All was c edar; there was no stone to be seen.

nkjv@1Kings:6:19 @ And he prepar ed the inner sanctuary inside the temple, to set the ark of the covenant of the LORD there.

nkjv@1Kings:6:20 @ The inner sanctuary was twenty cubits long, twenty cubits wide, and twenty cubits high. He overlaid it with pure gold, and overlaid the altar of c edar.

nkjv@1Kings:6:21 @ So Solomon overlaid the inside of the temple with pure gold. He stretch ed gold chains across the front of the inner sanctuary, and overlaid it with gold.

nkjv@1Kings:6:22 @ The whole temple he overlaid with gold, until he had finish ed all the temple; also he overlaid with gold the entire altar that was by the inner sanctuary.

nkjv@1Kings:6:27 @ Then he set the cherubim inside the inner room; and they stretch ed out the wings of the cherubim so that the wing of the one touch ed one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touch ed the other wall. And their wings touch ed each other in the middle of the room.

nkjv@1Kings:6:29 @ Then he carv ed all the walls of the temple all around, both the inner and outer sanctuaries, with carv ed figures of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers.

nkjv@1Kings:6:32 @ The two doors were of olive wood; and he carv ed on them figures of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold; and he spread gold on the cherubim and on the palm trees.

nkjv@1Kings:6:34 @ And the two doors were of cypress wood; two panels compris ed one folding door, and two panels compris ed the other folding door.

nkjv@1Kings:6:35 @ Then he carv ed cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers on them, and overlaid them with gold appli ed evenly on the carv ed work.

nkjv@1Kings:6:36 @ And he built the inner court with three rows of hewn stone and a row of c edar beams.

nkjv@1Kings:6:38 @ And in the eleventh year, in the month of Bul, which is the eighth month, the house was finish ed in all its details and according to all its plans. So he was seven years in building it.

nkjv@1Kings:7:1 @ But Solomon took thirteen years to build his own house; so he finish ed all his house.

nkjv@1Kings:7:2 @ He also built the House of the Forest of Lebanon; its length was one hundr ed cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits, with four rows of c edar pillars, and c edar beams on the pillars.

nkjv@1Kings:7:3 @ And it was panel ed with c edar above the beams that were on forty-five pillars, fifteen to a row.

nkjv@1Kings:7:4 @ There were windows with bevel ed frames in three rows, and window was opposite window in three tiers.

nkjv@1Kings:7:7 @ Then he made a hall for the throne, the Hall of Judgment, where he might judge; and it was panel ed with c edar from floor to ceiling.

nkjv@1Kings:7:9 @ All these were of costly stones cut to size, trimm ed with saws, inside and out, from the foundation to the eaves, and also on the outside to the great court.

nkjv@1Kings:7:11 @ And above were costly stones, hewn to size, and c edar wood.

nkjv@1Kings:7:12 @ The great court was enclos ed with three rows of hewn stones and a row of c edar beams. So were the inner court of the house of the LORD and the vestibule of the temple.

nkjv@1Kings:7:14 @ He was the son of a widow from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a bronze worker; he was fill ed with wisdom and understanding and skill in working with all kinds of bronze work. So he came to King Solomon and did all his work.

nkjv@1Kings:7:15 @ And he cast two pillars of bronze, each one eighteen cubits high, and a line of twelve cubits measur ed the circumference of each.

nkjv@1Kings:7:20 @ The capitals on the two pillars also had pomegranates above, by the convex surface which was next to the network; and there were two hundr ed such pomegranates in rows on each of the capitals all around.

nkjv@1Kings:7:21 @ Then he set up the pillars by the vestibule of the temple; he set up the pillar on the right and call ed its name Jachin, and he set up the pillar on the left and call ed its name Boaz.

nkjv@1Kings:7:22 @ The tops of the pillars were in the shape of lilies. So the work of the pillars was finish ed.

nkjv@1Kings:7:23 @ And he made the Sea of cast bronze, ten cubits from one brim to the other; it was completely round. Its height was five cubits, and a line of thirty cubits measur ed its circumference.

nkjv@1Kings:7:25 @ It stood on twelve oxen: three looking toward the north, three looking toward the west, three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east; the Sea was set upon them, and all their back parts point ed inward.

nkjv@1Kings:7:26 @ It was a handbreadth thick; and its brim was shap ed like the brim of a cup, like a lily blossom. It contain ed two thousand baths.

nkjv@1Kings:7:29 @ on the panels that were between the frames were lions, oxen, and cherubim. And on the frames was a p edestal on top. Below the lions and oxen were wreaths of plait ed work.

nkjv@1Kings:7:31 @ Its opening inside the crown at the top was one cubit in diameter; and the opening was round, shap ed like a p edestal, one and a half cubits in outside diameter; and also on the opening were engravings, but the panels were square, not round.

nkjv@1Kings:7:32 @ Under the panels were the four wheels, and the axles of the wheels were join ed to the cart. The height of a wheel was one and a half cubits.

nkjv@1Kings:7:36 @ On the plates of its flanges and on its panels he engrav ed cherubim, lions, and palm trees, wherever there was a clear space on each, with wreaths all around.

nkjv@1Kings:7:38 @ Then he made ten lavers of bronze; each laver contain ed forty baths, and each laver was four cubits. On each of the ten carts was a laver.

nkjv@1Kings:7:40 @ Huram made the lavers and the shovels and the bowls. So Huram finish ed doing all the work that he was to do for King Solomon for the house of the LORD:

nkjv@1Kings:7:41 @ the two pillars, the two bowl-shap ed capitals that were on top of the two pillars; the two networks covering the two bowl-shap ed capitals which were on top of the pillars;

nkjv@1Kings:7:42 @ four hundr ed pomegranates for the two networks (two rows of pomegranates for each network, to cover the two bowl-shap ed capitals that were on top of the pillars);

nkjv@1Kings:7:45 @ the pots, the shovels, and the bowls. All these articles which Huram made for King Solomon for the house of the LORD were of burnish ed bronze.

nkjv@1Kings:7:47 @ And Solomon did not weigh all the articles, because there were so many; the weight of the bronze was not determin ed.

nkjv@1Kings:7:51 @ So all the work that King Solomon had done for the house of the LORD was finish ed; and Solomon brought in the things which his father David had d edicat ed: the silver and the gold and the furnishings. He put them in the treasuries of the house of the LORD.

nkjv@1Kings:8:1 @ Now Solomon assembl ed the elders of Israel and all the heads of the tribes, the chief fathers of the children of Israel, to King Solomon in Jerusalem, that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD from the City of David, which is Zion.

nkjv@1Kings:8:2 @ Therefore all the men of Israel assembl ed with King Solomon at the feast in the month of Ethanim, which is the seventh month.

nkjv@1Kings:8:5 @ Also King Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel who were assembl ed with him, were with him before the ark, sacrificing sheep and oxen that could not be count ed or number ed for multitude.

nkjv@1Kings:8:7 @ For the cherubim spread their two wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim overshadow ed the ark and its poles.

nkjv@1Kings:8:8 @ The poles extend ed so that the ends of the poles could be seen from the holy place, in front of the inner sanctuary; but they could not be seen from outside. And they are there to this day.

nkjv@1Kings:8:10 @ And it came to pass, when the priests came out of the holy place, that the cloud fill ed the house of the LORD,

nkjv@1Kings:8:11 @ so that the priests could not continue ministering because of the cloud; for the glory of the LORD fill ed the house of the LORD.

nkjv@1Kings:8:13 @ I have surely built You an exalt ed house, And a place for You to dwell in forever."

nkjv@1Kings:8:63 @ And Solomon offer ed a sacrifice of peace offerings, which he offer ed to the LORD, twenty-two thousand bulls and one hundr ed and twenty thousand sheep. So the king and all the children of Israel d edicat ed the house of the LORD.

nkjv@1Kings:8:64 @ On the same day the king consecrat ed the middle of the court that was in front of the house of the LORD; for there he offer ed burnt offerings, grain offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the bronze altar that was before the LORD was too small to receive the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings.

nkjv@1Kings:8:66 @ On the eighth day he sent the people away; and they bless ed the king, and went to their tents joyful and glad of heart for all the good that the LORD had done for His servant David, and for Israel His people.

nkjv@1Kings:9:1 @ And it came to pass, when Solomon had finish ed building the house of the LORD and the king's house, and all Solomon's desire which he want ed to do,

nkjv@1Kings:9:10 @ Now it happen ed at the end of twenty years, when Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the LORD and the king's house

nkjv@1Kings:9:11 @ (Hiram the king of Tyre had suppli ed Solomon with c edar and cypress and gold, as much as he desir ed), that King Solomon then gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

nkjv@1Kings:9:13 @ So he said, "What kind of cities are these which you have given me, my brother?" And he call ed them the land of Cabul, as they are to this day.

nkjv@1Kings:9:14 @ Then Hiram sent the king one hundr ed and twenty talents of gold.

nkjv@1Kings:9:15 @ And this is the reason for the labor force which King Solomon rais ed: to build the house of the LORD, his own house, the Millo, the wall of Jerusalem, Hazor, Megiddo, and Gezer.

nkjv@1Kings:9:16 @ (Pharaoh king of Egypt had gone up and taken Gezer and burn ed it with fire, had kill ed the Canaanites who dwelt in the city, and had given it as a dowry to his daughter, Solomon's wife.)

nkjv@1Kings:9:19 @ all the storage cities that Solomon had, cities for his chariots and cities for his cavalry, and whatever Solomon desir ed to build in Jerusalem, in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

nkjv@1Kings:9:21 @ that is, their descendants who were left in the land after them, whom the children of Israel had not been able to destroy completely--from these Solomon rais ed forc ed labor, as it is to this day.

nkjv@1Kings:9:22 @ But of the children of Israel Solomon made no forc ed laborers, because they were men of war and his servants: his officers, his captains, commanders of his chariots, and his cavalry.

nkjv@1Kings:9:23 @ Others were chiefs of the officials who were over Solomon's work: five hundr ed and fifty, who rul ed over the people who did the work.

nkjv@1Kings:9:25 @ Now three times a year Solomon offer ed burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar which he had built for the LORD, and he burn ed incense with them on the altar that was before the LORD. So he finish ed the temple.

nkjv@1Kings:9:26 @ King Solomon also built a fleet of ships at Ezion Geber, which is near Elath on the shore of the R ed Sea, in the land of Edom.

nkjv@1Kings:9:28 @ And they went to Ophir, and acquir ed four hundr ed and twenty talents of gold from there, and brought it to King Solomon.

nkjv@1Kings:10:3 @ So Solomon answer ed all her questions; there was nothing so difficult for the king that he could not explain it to her.

nkjv@1Kings:10:7 @ However I did not believe the words until I came and saw with my own eyes; and inde ed the half was not told me. Your wisdom and prosperity exce ed the fame of which I heard.

nkjv@1Kings:10:9 @ Bless ed be the LORD your God, who delight ed in you, setting you on the throne of Israel! Because the LORD has lov ed Israel forever, therefore He made you king, to do justice and righteousness."

nkjv@1Kings:10:10 @ Then she gave the king one hundr ed and twenty talents of gold, spices in great quantity, and precious stones. There never again came such abundance of spices as the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.

nkjv@1Kings:10:12 @ And the king made steps of the almug wood for the house of the LORD and for the king's house, also harps and string ed instruments for singers. There never again came such almug wood, nor has the like been seen to this day.

nkjv@1Kings:10:13 @ Now King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all she desir ed, whatever she ask ed, besides what Solomon had given her according to the royal generosity. So she turn ed and went to her own country, she and her servants.

nkjv@1Kings:10:14 @ The weight of gold that came to Solomon yearly was six hundr ed and sixty-six talents of gold,

nkjv@1Kings:10:16 @ And King Solomon made two hundr ed large shields of hammer ed gold; six hundr ed shekels of gold went into each shield.

nkjv@1Kings:10:17 @ He also made three hundr ed shields of hammer ed gold; three minas of gold went into each shield. The king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebanon.

nkjv@1Kings:10:21 @ All King Solomon's drinking vessels were gold, and all the vessels of the House of the Forest of Lebanon were pure gold. Not one was silver, for this was account ed as nothing in the days of Solomon.

nkjv@1Kings:10:23 @ So King Solomon surpass ed all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom.

nkjv@1Kings:10:26 @ And Solomon gather ed chariots and horsemen; he had one thousand four hundr ed chariots and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he station ed in the chariot cities and with the king at Jerusalem.

nkjv@1Kings:10:27 @ The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones, and he made c edar trees as abundant as the sycamores which are in the lowland.

nkjv@1Kings:10:28 @ Also Solomon had horses import ed from Egypt and Keveh; the king's merchants bought them in Keveh at the current price.

nkjv@1Kings:10:29 @ Now a chariot that was import ed from Egypt cost six hundr ed shekels of silver, and a horse one hundr ed and fifty; and thus, through their agents, they export ed them to all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Syria.

nkjv@1Kings:11:1 @ But King Solomon lov ed many foreign women, as well as the daughter of Pharaoh: women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians, and Hittites--

nkjv@1Kings:11:3 @ And he had seven hundr ed wives, princesses, and three hundr ed concubines; and his wives turn ed away his heart.

nkjv@1Kings:11:4 @ For it was so, when Solomon was old, that his wives turn ed his heart after other gods; and his heart was not loyal to the LORD his God, as was the heart of his father David.

nkjv@1Kings:11:8 @ And he did likewise for all his foreign wives, who burn ed incense and sacrific ed to their gods.

nkjv@1Kings:11:9 @ So the LORD became angry with Solomon, because his heart had turn ed from the LORD God of Israel, who had appear ed to him twice,

nkjv@1Kings:11:10 @ and had command ed him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods; but he did not keep what the LORD had command ed.

nkjv@1Kings:11:11 @ Therefore the LORD said to Solomon, "Because you have done this, and have not kept My covenant and My statutes, which I have command ed you, I will surely tear the kingdom away from you and give it to your servant.

nkjv@1Kings:11:14 @ Now the LORD rais ed up an adversary against Solomon, Hadad the Edomite; he was a descendant of the king in Edom.

nkjv@1Kings:11:15 @ For it happen ed, when David was in Edom, and Joab the commander of the army had gone up to bury the slain, after he had kill ed every male in Edom

nkjv@1Kings:11:18 @ Then they arose from Midian and came to Paran; and they took men with them from Paran and came to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave him a house, apportion ed food for him, and gave him land.

nkjv@1Kings:11:20 @ Then the sister of Tahpenes bore him Genubath his son, whom Tahpenes wean ed in Pharaoh's house. And Genubath was in Pharaoh's household among the sons of Pharaoh.

nkjv@1Kings:11:21 @ So when Hadad heard in Egypt that David rest ed with his fathers, and that Joab the commander of the army was dead, Hadad said to Pharaoh, "Let me depart, that I may go to my own country."

nkjv@1Kings:11:22 @ Then Pharaoh said to him, "But what have you lack ed with me, that suddenly you seek to go to your own country?" So he answer ed, "Nothing, but do let me go anyway."

nkjv@1Kings:11:23 @ And God rais ed up another adversary against him, Rezon the son of Eliadah, who had fl ed from his lord, Hadadezer king of Zobah.

nkjv@1Kings:11:24 @ So he gather ed men to him and became captain over a band of raiders, when David kill ed those of Zobah. And they went to Damascus and dwelt there, and reign ed in Damascus.

nkjv@1Kings:11:25 @ He was an adversary of Israel all the days of Solomon (besides the trouble that Hadad caus ed); and he abhorr ed Israel, and reign ed over Syria.

nkjv@1Kings:11:26 @ Then Solomon's servant, Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite from Zer eda, whose mother's name was Zeruah, a widow, also rebell ed against the king.

nkjv@1Kings:11:27 @ And this is what caus ed him to rebel against the king: Solomon had built the Millo and repair ed the damages to the City of David his father.

nkjv@1Kings:11:29 @ Now it happen ed at that time, when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, that the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite met him on the way; and he had cloth ed himself with a new garment, and the two were alone in the field.

nkjv@1Kings:11:33 @ because they have forsaken Me, and worship ed Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the people of Ammon, and have not walk ed in My ways to do what is right in My eyes and keep My statutes and My judgments, as did his father David.

nkjv@1Kings:11:40 @ Solomon therefore sought to kill Jeroboam. But Jeroboam arose and fl ed to Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.

nkjv@1Kings:11:42 @ And the period that Solomon reign ed in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.

nkjv@1Kings:11:43 @ Then Solomon rest ed with his fathers, and was buri ed in the City of David his father. And Rehoboam his son reign ed in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:9:18 @ The throne had six steps, with a footstool of gold, which were fasten ed to the throne; there were armrests on either side of the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the armrests.

nkjv@2Chronicles:9:20 @ All King Solomon's drinking vessels were gold, and all the vessels of the House of the Forest of Lebanon were pure gold. Not one was silver, for this was account ed as nothing in the days of Solomon.

nkjv@2Chronicles:9:22 @ So King Solomon surpass ed all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom.

nkjv@2Chronicles:9:25 @ Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen whom he station ed in the chariot cities and with the king at Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:9:26 @ So he reign ed over all the kings from the River to the land of the Philistines, as far as the border of Egypt.

nkjv@2Chronicles:9:27 @ The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones, and he made c edar trees as abundant as the sycamores which are in the lowland.

nkjv@2Chronicles:9:30 @ Solomon reign ed in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years.

nkjv@2Chronicles:9:31 @ Then Solomon rest ed with his fathers, and was buri ed in the City of David his father. And Rehoboam his son reign ed in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:2 @ So it happen ed, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard it (he was in Egypt, where he had fl ed from the presence of King Solomon), that Jeroboam return ed from Egypt.

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:3 @ Then they sent for him and call ed him. And Jeroboam and all Israel came and spoke to Rehoboam, saying,

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:5 @ So he said to them, "Come back to me after three days." And the people depart ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:6 @ Then King Rehoboam consult ed the elders who stood before his father Solomon while he still liv ed, saying, "How do you advise me to answer these people?"

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:8 @ But he reject ed the advice which the elders had given him, and consult ed the young men who had grown up with him, who stood before him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:12 @ So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, as the king had direct ed, saying, "Come back to me the third day."

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:13 @ Then the king answer ed them roughly. King Rehoboam reject ed the advice of the elders,

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:14 @ and he spoke to them according to the advice of the young men, saying, "My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it; my father chastis ed you with whips, but I will chastise you with scourges!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:16 @ Now when all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the people answer ed the king, saying: "What share have we in David? We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse. Every man to your tents, O Israel! Now see to your own house, O David!" So all Israel depart ed to their tents.

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:17 @ But Rehoboam reign ed over the children of Israel who dwelt in the cities of Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:18 @ Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was in charge of revenue; but the children of Israel ston ed him with stones, and he di ed. Therefore King Rehoboam mount ed his chariot in haste to flee to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:1 @ Now when Rehoboam came to Jerusalem, he assembl ed from the house of Judah and Benjamin one hundr ed and eighty thousand chosen men who were warriors, to fight against Israel, that he might restore the kingdom to Rehoboam.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:10 @ Zorah, Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and Benjamin, fortifi ed cities.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:11 @ And he fortifi ed the strongholds, and put captains in them, and stores of food, oil, and wine.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:14 @ For the Levites left their common-lands and their possessions and came to Judah and Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons had reject ed them from serving as priests to the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:15 @ Then he appoint ed for himself priests for the high places, for the demons, and the calf idols which he had made.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:17 @ So they strengthen ed the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong for three years, because they walk ed in the way of David and Solomon for three years.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:21 @ Now Rehoboam lov ed Maachah the granddaughter of Absalom more than all his wives and his concubines; for he took eighteen wives and sixty concubines, and begot twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:22 @ And Rehoboam appoint ed Abijah the son of Maachah as chief, to be leader among his brothers; for he intend ed to make him king.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:23 @ He dealt wisely, and dispers ed some of his sons throughout all the territories of Judah and Benjamin, to every fortifi ed city; and he gave them provisions in abundance. He also sought many wives for them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:1 @ Now it came to pass, when Rehoboam had establish ed the kingdom and had strengthen ed himself, that he forsook the law of the LORD, and all Israel along with him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:2 @ And it happen ed in the fifth year of King Rehoboam that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had transgress ed against the LORD,

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:3 @ with twelve hundr ed chariots, sixty thousand horsemen, and people without number who came with him out of Egypt--the Lubim and the Sukkiim and the Ethiopians.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:4 @ And he took the fortifi ed cities of Judah and came to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:5 @ Then Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the leaders of Judah, who were gather ed together in Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, "Thus says the LORD: "You have forsaken Me, and therefore I also have left you in the hand of Shishak."'

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:6 @ So the leaders of Israel and the king humbl ed themselves; and they said, "The LORD is righteous."

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:7 @ Now when the LORD saw that they humbl ed themselves, the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying, "They have humbl ed themselves; therefore I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance. My wrath shall not be pour ed out on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:9 @ So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of the LORD and the treasures of the king's house; he took everything. He also carri ed away the gold shields which Solomon had made.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:10 @ Then King Rehoboam made bronze shields in their place, and committ ed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who guard ed the doorway of the king's house.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:11 @ And whenever the king enter ed the house of the LORD, the guard would go and bring them out; then they would take them back into the guardroom.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:12 @ When he humbl ed himself, the wrath of the LORD turn ed from him, so as not to destroy him completely; and things also went well in Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:13 @ Thus King Rehoboam strengthen ed himself in Jerusalem and reign ed. Now Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king; and he reign ed seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put His name there. His mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonitess.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:16 @ So Rehoboam rest ed with his fathers, and was buri ed in the City of David. Then Abijah his son reign ed in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:2 @ He reign ed three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Michaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:3 @ Abijah set the battle in order with an army of valiant warriors, four hundr ed thousand choice men. Jeroboam also drew up in battle formation against him with eight hundr ed thousand choice men, mighty men of valor.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:6 @ Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, rose up and rebell ed against his lord.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:7 @ Then worthless rogues gather ed to him, and strengthen ed themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and inexperienc ed and could not withstand them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:13 @ But Jeroboam caus ed an ambush to go around behind them; so they were in front of Judah, and the ambush was behind them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:14 @ And when Judah look ed around, to their surprise the battle line was at both front and rear; and they cri ed out to the LORD, and the priests sound ed the trumpets.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:15 @ Then the men of Judah gave a shout; and as the men of Judah shout ed, it happen ed that God struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:16 @ And the children of Israel fl ed before Judah, and God deliver ed them into their hand.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:17 @ Then Abijah and his people struck them with a great slaughter; so five hundr ed thousand choice men of Israel fell slain.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:18 @ Thus the children of Israel were subdu ed at that time; and the children of Judah prevail ed, because they reli ed on the LORD God of their fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:19 @ And Abijah pursu ed Jeroboam and took cities from him: Bethel with its villages, Jeshanah with its villages, and Ephrain with its villages.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:20 @ So Jeroboam did not recover strength again in the days of Abijah; and the LORD struck him, and he di ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:21 @ But Abijah grew mighty, marri ed fourteen wives, and begot twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:1 @ So Abijah rest ed with his fathers, and they buri ed him in the City of David. Then Asa his son reign ed in his place. In his days the land was quiet for ten years.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:3 @ for he remov ed the altars of the foreign gods and the high places, and broke down the sacr ed pillars and cut down the wooden images.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:4 @ He command ed Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to observe the law and the commandment.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:5 @ He also remov ed the high places and the incense altars from all the cities of Judah, and the kingdom was quiet under him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:6 @ And he built fortifi ed cities in Judah, for the land had rest; he had no war in those years, because the LORD had given him rest.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:7 @ Therefore he said to Judah, "Let us build these cities and make walls around them, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us, because we have sought the LORD our God; we have sought Him, and He has given us rest on every side." So they built and prosper ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:8 @ And Asa had an army of three hundr ed thousand from Judah who carri ed shields and spears, and from Benjamin two hundr ed and eighty thousand men who carri ed shields and drew bows; all these were mighty men of valor.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:9 @ Then Zerah the Ethiopian came out against them with an army of a million men and three hundr ed chariots, and he came to Mareshah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:11 @ And Asa cri ed out to the LORD his God, and said, "LORD, it is nothing for You to help, whether with many or with those who have no power; help us, O LORD our God, for we rest on You, and in Your name we go against this multitude. O LORD, You are our God; do not let man prevail against You!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:12 @ So the LORD struck the Ethiopians before Asa and Judah, and the Ethiopians fl ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:13 @ And Asa and the people who were with him pursu ed them to Gerar. So the Ethiopians were overthrown, and they could not recover, for they were broken before the LORD and His army. And they carri ed away very much spoil.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:14 @ Then they defeat ed all the cities around Gerar, for the fear of the LORD came upon them; and they plunder ed all the cities, for there was exce edingly much spoil in them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:15 @ They also attack ed the livestock enclosures, and carri ed off sheep and camels in abundance, and return ed to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:1 @ Now the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Od ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:4 @ but when in their trouble they turn ed to the LORD God of Israel, and sought Him, He was found by them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:7 @ But you, be strong and do not let your hands be weak, for your work shall be reward ed!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:8 @ And when Asa heard these words and the prophecy of Od ed the prophet, he took courage, and remov ed the abominable idols from all the land of Judah and Benjamin and from the cities which he had taken in the mountains of Ephraim; and he restor ed the altar of the LORD that was before the vestibule of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:9 @ Then he gather ed all Judah and Benjamin, and those who dwelt with them from Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon, for they came over to him in great numbers from Israel when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:10 @ So they gather ed together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:11 @ And they offer ed to the LORD at that time seven hundr ed bulls and seven thousand sheep from the spoil they had brought.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:12 @ Then they enter ed into a covenant to seek the LORD God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:15 @ And all Judah rejoic ed at the oath, for they had sworn with all their heart and sought Him with all their soul; and He was found by them, and the LORD gave them rest all around.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:16 @ Also he remov ed Maachah, the mother of Asa the king, from being queen mother, because she had made an obscene image of Asherah; and Asa cut down her obscene image, then crush ed and burn ed it by the Brook Kidron.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:17 @ But the high places were not remov ed from Israel. Nevertheless the heart of Asa was loyal all his days.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:18 @ He also brought into the house of God the things that his father had d edicat ed and that he himself had d edicat ed: silver and gold and utensils.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:4 @ So Ben-Hadad he ed ed King Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel. They attack ed Ijon, Dan, Abel Maim, and all the storage cities of Naphtali.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:5 @ Now it happen ed, when Baasha heard it, that he stopp ed building Ramah and ceas ed his work.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:6 @ Then King Asa took all Judah, and they carri ed away the stones and timber of Ramah, which Baasha had us ed for building; and with them he built Geba and Mizpah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:7 @ And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him: "Because you have reli ed on the king of Syria, and have not reli ed on the LORD your God, therefore the army of the king of Syria has escap ed from your hand.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:11 @ Note that the acts of Asa, first and last, are inde ed written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:12 @ And in the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa became diseas ed in his feet, and his malady was severe; yet in his disease he did not seek the LORD, but the physicians.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:13 @ So Asa rest ed with his fathers; he di ed in the forty-first year of his reign.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:14 @ They buri ed him in his own tomb, which he had made for himself in the City of David; and they laid him in the b ed which was fill ed with spices and various ingr edients prepar ed in a mixture of ointments. They made a very great burning for him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:2 @ And he plac ed troops in all the fortifi ed cities of Judah, and set garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim which Asa his father had taken.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:3 @ Now the LORD was with Jehoshaphat, because he walk ed in the former ways of his father David; he did not seek the Baals,

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:4 @ but sought the God of his father, and walk ed in His commandments and not according to the acts of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:5 @ Therefore the LORD establish ed the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah gave presents to Jehoshaphat, and he had riches and honor in abundance.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:6 @ And his heart took delight in the ways of the LORD; moreover he remov ed the high places and wooden images from Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:11 @ Also some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents and silver as tribute; and the Arabians brought him flocks, seven thousand seven hundr ed rams and seven thousand seven hundr ed male goats.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:34 @ Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, first and last, inde ed they are written in the book of Jehu the son of Hanani, which is mention ed in the book of the kings of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:35 @ After this Jehoshaphat king of Judah alli ed himself with Ahaziah king of Israel, who act ed very wick edly.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:36 @ And he alli ed himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish, and they made the ships in Ezion Geber.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:37 @ But Eliezer the son of Dodavah of Mareshah prophesi ed against Jehoshaphat, saying, "Because you have alli ed yourself with Ahaziah, the LORD has destroy ed your works." Then the ships were wreck ed, so that they were not able to go to Tarshish.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:1 @ And Jehoshaphat rest ed with his fathers, and was buri ed with his fathers in the City of David. Then Jehoram his son reign ed in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:3 @ Their father gave them great gifts of silver and gold and precious things, with fortifi ed cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:4 @ Now when Jehoram was establish ed over the kingdom of his father, he strengthen ed himself and kill ed all his brothers with the sword, and also others of the princes of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:5 @ Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reign ed eight years in Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:6 @ And he walk ed in the way of the kings of Israel, just as the house of Ahab had done, for he had the daughter of Ahab as a wife; and he did evil in the sight of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:7 @ Yet the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that He had made with David, and since He had promis ed to give a lamp to him and to his sons forever.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:8 @ In his days Edom revolt ed against Judah's authority, and made a king over themselves.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:9 @ So Jehoram went out with his officers, and all his chariots with him. And he rose by night and attack ed the Edomites who had surround ed him and the captains of the chariots.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:10 @ Thus Edom has been in revolt against Judah's authority to this day. At that time Libnah revolt ed against his rule, because he had forsaken the LORD God of his fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:11 @ Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and caus ed the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit harlotry, and l ed Judah astray.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:12 @ And a letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, 4 Thus says the LORD God of your father David: 4 Because you have not walk ed in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, or in the ways of Asa king of Judah,

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:13 @ but have walk ed in the way of the kings of Israel, and have made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to play the harlot like the harlotry of the house of Ahab, and also have kill ed your brothers, those of your father's household, who were better than yourself,

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:16 @ Moreover the LORD stirr ed up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and the Arabians who were near the Ethiopians.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:17 @ And they came up into Judah and invad ed it, and carri ed away all the possessions that were found in the king's house, and also his sons and his wives, so that there was not a son left to him except Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:19 @ Then it happen ed in the course of time, after the end of two years, that his intestines came out because of his sickness; so he di ed in severe pain. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning for his fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:20 @ He was thirty-two years old when he became king. He reign ed in Jerusalem eight years and, to no one's sorrow, depart ed. However they buri ed him in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:1 @ Then the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his place, for the raiders who came with the Arabians into the camp had kill ed all the older sons. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, reign ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:2 @ Ahaziah was forty-two years old when he became king, and he reign ed one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Athaliah the granddaughter of Omri.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:3 @ He also walk ed in the ways of the house of Ahab, for his mother advis ed him to do wick edly.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:5 @ He also follow ed their advice, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramoth Gilead; and the Syrians wound ed Joram.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:6 @ Then he return ed to Jezreel to recover from the wounds which he had receiv ed at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:7 @ His going to Joram was God's occasion for Ahaziah's downfall; for when he arriv ed, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anoint ed to cut off the house of Ahab.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:8 @ And it happen ed, when Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Ahab, and found the princes of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah's brothers who serv ed Ahaziah, that he kill ed them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:9 @ Then he search ed for Ahaziah; and they caught him (he was hiding in Samaria), and brought him to Jehu. When they had kill ed him, they buri ed him, "because," they said, "he is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart." So the house of Ahaziah had no one to assume power over the kingdom.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:10 @ Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroy ed all the royal heirs of the house of Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:11 @ But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him away from among the king's sons who were being murder ed, and put him and his nurse in a b edroom. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of King Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest (for she was the sister of Ahaziah), hid him from Athaliah so that she did not kill him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:12 @ And he was hidden with them in the house of God for six years, while Athaliah reign ed over the land.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:1 @ In the seventh year Jehoiada strengthen ed himself, and made a covenant with the captains of hundr eds: Azariah the son of Jeroham, Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, Azariah the son of Ob ed, Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:2 @ And they went throughout Judah and gather ed the Levites from all the cities of Judah, and the chief fathers of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:8 @ So the Levites and all Judah did according to all that Jehoiada the priest command ed. And each man took his men who were to be on duty on the Sabbath, with those who were going off duty on the Sabbath; for Jehoiada the priest had not dismiss ed the divisions.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:9 @ And Jehoiada the priest gave to the captains of hundr eds the spears and the large and small shields which had belong ed to King David, that were in the temple of God.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:11 @ And they brought out the king's son, put the crown on him, gave him the Testimony, and made him king. Then Jehoiada and his sons anoint ed him, and said, "Long live the king!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:13 @ When she look ed, there was the king standing by his pillar at the entrance; and the leaders and the trumpeters were by the king. All the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets, also the singers with musical instruments, and those who l ed in praise. So Athaliah tore her clothes and said, "Treason! Treason!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:14 @ And Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundr eds who were set over the army, and said to them, "Take her outside under guard, and slay with the sword whoever follows her." For the priest had said, "Do not kill her in the house of the LORD."

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:15 @ So they seiz ed her; and she went by way of the entrance of the Horse Gate into the king's house, and they kill ed her there.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:17 @ And all the people went to the temple of Baal, and tore it down. They broke in pieces its altars and images, and kill ed Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:18 @ Also Jehoiada appoint ed the oversight of the house of the LORD to the hand of the priests, the Levites, whom David had assign ed in the house of the LORD, to offer the burnt offerings of the LORD, as it is written in the Law of Moses, with rejoicing and with singing, as it was establish ed by David.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:20 @ Then he took the captains of hundr eds, the nobles, the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought the king down from the house of the LORD; and they went through the Upper Gate to the king's house, and set the king on the throne of the kingdom.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:21 @ So all the people of the land rejoic ed; and the city was quiet, for they had slain Athaliah with the sword.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:1 @ Joash was seven years old when he became king, and he reign ed forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:4 @ Now it happen ed after this that Joash set his heart on repairing the house of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:5 @ Then he gather ed the priests and the Levites, and said to them, "Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather from all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that you do it quickly." However the Levites did not do it quickly.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:6 @ So the king call ed Jehoiada the chief priest, and said to him, "Why have you not requir ed the Levites to bring in from Judah and from Jerusalem the collection, according to the commandment of Moses the servant of the LORD and of the assembly of Israel, for the tabernacle of witness?"

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:7 @ For the sons of Athaliah, that wick ed woman, had broken into the house of God, and had also present ed all the d edicat ed things of the house of the LORD to the Baals.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:9 @ And they made a proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem to bring to the LORD the collection that Moses the servant of God had impos ed on Israel in the wilderness.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:10 @ Then all the leaders and all the people rejoic ed, brought their contributions, and put them into the chest until all had given.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:11 @ So it was, at that time, when the chest was brought to the king's official by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, that the king's scribe and the high priest's officer came and empti ed the chest, and took it and return ed it to its place. Thus they did day by day, and gather ed money in abundance.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:12 @ The king and Jehoiada gave it to those who did the work of the service of the house of the LORD; and they hir ed masons and carpenters to repair the house of the LORD, and also those who work ed in iron and bronze to restore the house of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:14 @ When they had finish ed, they brought the rest of the money before the king and Jehoiada; they made from it articles for the house of the LORD, articles for serving and offering, spoons and vessels of gold and silver. And they offer ed burnt offerings in the house of the LORD continually all the days of Jehoiada.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:15 @ But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he di ed; he was one hundr ed and thirty years old when he di ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:16 @ And they buri ed him in the City of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward God and His house.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:17 @ Now after the death of Jehoiada the leaders of Judah came and bow ed down to the king. And the king listen ed to them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:18 @ Therefore they left the house of the LORD God of their fathers, and serv ed wooden images and idols; and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem because of their trespass.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:19 @ Yet He sent prophets to them, to bring them back to the LORD; and they testifi ed against them, but they would not listen.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:21 @ So they conspir ed against him, and at the command of the king they ston ed him with stones in the court of the house of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:22 @ Thus Joash the king did not remember the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but kill ed his son; and as he di ed, he said, "The LORD look on it, and repay!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:23 @ So it happen ed in the spring of the year that the army of Syria came up against him; and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroy ed all the leaders of the people from among the people, and sent all their spoil to the king of Damascus.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:24 @ For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men; but the LORD deliver ed a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD God of their fathers. So they execut ed judgment against Joash.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:25 @ And when they had withdrawn from him (for they left him severely wound ed), his own servants conspir ed against him because of the blood of the sons of Jehoiada the priest, and kill ed him on his b ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:26 @ These are the ones who conspir ed against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:27 @ Now concerning his sons, and the many oracles about him, and the repairing of the house of God, inde ed they are written in the annals of the book of the kings. Then Amaziah his son reign ed in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:1 @ Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reign ed twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:3 @ Now it happen ed, as soon as the kingdom was establish ed for him, that he execut ed his servants who had murder ed his father the king.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:4 @ However he did not execute their children, but did as it is written in the Law in the Book of Moses, where the LORD command ed, saying, "The fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor shall the children be put to death for their fathers; but a person shall die for his own sin."

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:5 @ Moreover Amaziah gather ed Judah together and set over them captains of thousands and captains of hundr eds, according to their fathers' houses, throughout all Judah and Benjamin; and he number ed them from twenty years old and above, and found them to be three hundr ed thousand choice men, able to go to war, who could handle spear and shield.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:6 @ He also hir ed one hundr ed thousand mighty men of valor from Israel for one hundr ed talents of silver.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:9 @ Then Amaziah said to the man of God, "But what shall we do about the hundr ed talents which I have given to the troops of Israel?" And the man of God answer ed, "The LORD is able to give you much more than this."

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:10 @ So Amaziah discharg ed the troops that had come to him from Ephraim, to go back home. Therefore their anger was greatly arous ed against Judah, and they return ed home in great anger.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:11 @ Then Amaziah strengthen ed himself, and leading his people, he went to the Valley of Salt and kill ed ten thousand of the people of Seir.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:12 @ Also the children of Judah took captive ten thousand alive, brought them to the top of the rock, and cast them down from the top of the rock, so that they all were dash ed in pieces.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:13 @ But as for the soldiers of the army which Amaziah had discharg ed, so that they would not go with him to battle, they raid ed the cities of Judah from Samaria to Beth Horon, kill ed three thousand in them, and took much spoil.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:14 @ Now it was so, after Amaziah came from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the people of Seir, set them up to be his gods, and bow ed down before them and burn ed incense to them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:15 @ Therefore the anger of the LORD was arous ed against Amaziah, and He sent him a prophet who said to him, "Why have you sought the gods of the people, which could not rescue their own people from your hand?"

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:16 @ So it was, as he talk ed with him, that the king said to him, "Have we made you the king's counselor? Cease! Why should you be kill ed?" Then the prophet ceas ed, and said, "I know that God has determin ed to destroy you, because you have done this and have not he ed ed my advice."

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:17 @ Now Amaziah king of Judah ask ed advice and sent to Joash the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, "Come, let us face one another in battle."

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:18 @ And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, "The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the c edar that was in Lebanon, saying, "Give your daughter to my son as wife'; and a wild beast that was in Lebanon pass ed by and trampl ed the thistle.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:19 @ Inde ed you say that you have defeat ed the Edomites, and your heart is lift ed up to boast. Stay at home now; why should you m eddle with trouble, that you should fall--you and Judah with you?"

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:20 @ But Amaziah would not he ed, for it came from God, that He might give them into the hand of their enemies, because they sought the gods of Edom.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:21 @ So Joash king of Israel went out; and he and Amaziah king of Judah fac ed one another at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:22 @ And Judah was defeat ed by Israel, and every man fl ed to his tent.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:1 @ Hezekiah became king when he was twenty-five years old, and he reign ed twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Abijah the daughter of Zechariah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:3 @ In the first year of his reign, in the first month, he open ed the doors of the house of the LORD and repair ed them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:4 @ Then he brought in the priests and the Levites, and gather ed them in the East Square,

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:6 @ For our fathers have trespass ed and done evil in the eyes of the LORD our God; they have forsaken Him, have turn ed their faces away from the dwelling place of the LORD, and turn ed their backs on Him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:7 @ They have also shut up the doors of the vestibule, put out the lamps, and have not burn ed incense or offer ed burnt offerings in the holy place to the God of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:9 @ For inde ed, because of this our fathers have fallen by the sword; and our sons, our daughters, and our wives are in captivity.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:12 @ Then these Levites arose: Mahath the son of Amasai and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathites; of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi and Azariah the son of Jehallelel; of the Gershonites, Joah the son of Zimmah and Eden the son of Joah;

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:14 @ of the sons of Heman, Jehiel and Shimei; and of the sons of J eduthun, Shemaiah and Uzziel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:15 @ And they gather ed their brethren, sanctifi ed themselves, and went according to the commandment of the king, at the words of the LORD, to cleanse the house of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:16 @ Then the priests went into the inner part of the house of the LORD to cleanse it, and brought out all the debris that they found in the temple of the LORD to the court of the house of the LORD. And the Levites took it out and carri ed it to the Brook Kidron.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:17 @ Now they began to sanctify on the first day of the first month, and on the eighth day of the month they came to the vestibule of the LORD. So they sanctifi ed the house of the LORD in eight days, and on the sixteenth day of the first month they finish ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:18 @ Then they went in to King Hezekiah and said, "We have cleans ed all the house of the LORD, the altar of burnt offerings with all its articles, and the table of the showbread with all its articles.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:19 @ Moreover all the articles which King Ahaz in his reign had cast aside in his transgression we have prepar ed and sanctifi ed; and there they are, before the altar of the LORD."

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:20 @ Then King Hezekiah rose early, gather ed the rulers of the city, and went up to the house of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:21 @ And they brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven lambs, and seven male goats for a sin offering for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, and for Judah. Then he command ed the priests, the sons of Aaron, to offer them on the altar of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:22 @ So they kill ed the bulls, and the priests receiv ed the blood and sprinkl ed it on the altar. Likewise they kill ed the rams and sprinkl ed the blood on the altar. They also kill ed the lambs and sprinkl ed the blood on the altar.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:24 @ And the priests kill ed them; and they present ed their blood on the altar as a sin offering to make an atonement for all Israel, for the king command ed that the burnt offering and the sin offering be made for all Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:25 @ And he station ed the Levites in the house of the LORD with cymbals, with string ed instruments, and with harps, according to the commandment of David, of Gad the king's seer, and of Nathan the prophet; for thus was the commandment of the LORD by His prophets.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:27 @ Then Hezekiah command ed them to offer the burnt offering on the altar. And when the burnt offering began, the song of the LORD also began, with the trumpets and with the instruments of David king of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:28 @ So all the assembly worship ed, the singers sang, and the trumpeters sound ed; all this continu ed until the burnt offering was finish ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:29 @ And when they had finish ed offering, the king and all who were present with him bow ed and worship ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:30 @ Moreover King Hezekiah and the leaders command ed the Levites to sing praise to the LORD with the words of David and of Asaph the seer. So they sang praises with gladness, and they bow ed their heads and worship ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:31 @ Then Hezekiah answer ed and said, "Now that you have consecrat ed yourselves to the LORD, come near, and bring sacrifices and thank offerings into the house of the LORD." So the assembly brought in sacrifices and thank offerings, and as many as were of a willing heart brought burnt offerings.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:32 @ And the number of the burnt offerings which the assembly brought was seventy bulls, one hundr ed rams, and two hundr ed lambs; all these were for a burnt offering to the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:33 @ The consecrat ed things were six hundr ed bulls and three thousand sheep.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:34 @ But the priests were too few, so that they could not skin all the burnt offerings; therefore their brethren the Levites help ed them until the work was end ed and until the other priests had sanctifi ed themselves, for the Levites were more diligent in sanctifying themselves than the priests.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:36 @ Then Hezekiah and all the people rejoic ed that God had prepar ed the people, since the events took place so suddenly.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:2 @ For the king and his leaders and all the assembly in Jerusalem had agre ed to keep the Passover in the second month.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:3 @ For they could not keep it at the regular time, because a sufficient number of priests had not consecrat ed themselves, nor had the people gather ed together at Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:4 @ And the matter pleas ed the king and all the assembly.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:5 @ So they resolv ed to make a proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, that they should come to keep the Passover to the LORD God of Israel at Jerusalem, since they had not done it for a long time in the prescrib ed manner.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:6 @ Then the runners went throughout all Israel and Judah with the letters from the king and his leaders, and spoke according to the command of the king: "Children of Israel, return to the LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel; then He will return to the remnant of you who have escap ed from the hand of the kings of Assyria.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:7 @ And do not be like your fathers and your brethren, who trespass ed against the LORD God of their fathers, so that He gave them up to desolation, as you see.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:8 @ Now do not be stiff-neck ed, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves to the LORD; and enter His sanctuary, which He has sanctifi ed forever, and serve the LORD your God, that the fierceness of His wrath may turn away from you.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:9 @ For if you return to the LORD, your brethren and your children will be treat ed with compassion by those who lead them captive, so that they may come back to this land; for the LORD your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn His face from you if you return to Him."

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:10 @ So the runners pass ed from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh, as far as Zebulun; but they laugh ed at them and mock ed them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:11 @ Nevertheless some from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun humbl ed themselves and came to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:13 @ Now many people, a very great assembly, gather ed at Jerusalem to keep the Feast of Unleaven ed Bread in the second month.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:15 @ Then they slaughter ed the Passover lambs on the fourteenth day of the second month. The priests and the Levites were asham ed, and sanctifi ed themselves, and brought the burnt offerings to the house of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:16 @ They stood in their place according to their custom, according to the Law of Moses the man of God; the priests sprinkl ed the blood receiv ed from the hand of the Levites.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:17 @ For there were many in the assembly who had not sanctifi ed themselves; therefore the Levites had charge of the slaughter of the Passover lambs for everyone who was not clean, to sanctify them to the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:18 @ For a multitude of the people, many from Ephraim, Manasseh, Issachar, and Zebulun, had not cleans ed themselves, yet they ate the Passover contrary to what was written. But Hezekiah pray ed for them, saying, "May the good LORD provide atonement for everyone

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:19 @ who prepares his heart to seek God, the LORD God of his fathers, though he is not cleans ed according to the purification of the sanctuary."

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:20 @ And the LORD listen ed to Hezekiah and heal ed the people.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:21 @ So the children of Israel who were present at Jerusalem kept the Feast of Unleaven ed Bread seven days with great gladness; and the Levites and the priests prais ed the LORD day by day, singing to the LORD, accompani ed by loud instruments.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:22 @ And Hezekiah gave encouragement to all the Levites who taught the good knowl edge of the LORD; and they ate throughout the feast seven days, offering peace offerings and making confession to the LORD God of their fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:23 @ Then the whole assembly agre ed to keep the feast another seven days, and they kept it another seven days with gladness.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:24 @ For Hezekiah king of Judah gave to the assembly a thousand bulls and seven thousand sheep, and the leaders gave to the assembly a thousand bulls and ten thousand sheep; and a great number of priests sanctifi ed themselves.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:25 @ The whole assembly of Judah rejoic ed, also the priests and Levites, all the assembly that came from Israel, the sojourners who came from the land of Israel, and those who dwelt in Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:27 @ Then the priests, the Levites, arose and bless ed the people, and their voice was heard; and their prayer came up to His holy dwelling place, to heaven.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:1 @ Now when all this was finish ed, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah and broke the sacr ed pillars in pieces, cut down the wooden images, and threw down the high places and the altars--from all Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh--until they had utterly destroy ed them all. Then all the children of Israel return ed to their own cities, every man to his possession.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:2 @ And Hezekiah appoint ed the divisions of the priests and the Levites according to their divisions, each man according to his service, the priests and Levites for burnt offerings and peace offerings, to serve, to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:3 @ The king also appoint ed a portion of his possessions for the burnt offerings: for the morning and evening burnt offerings, the burnt offerings for the Sabbaths and the New Moons and the set feasts, as it is written in the Law of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:4 @ Moreover he command ed the people who dwelt in Jerusalem to contribute support for the priests and the Levites, that they might devote themselves to the Law of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:5 @ As soon as the commandment was circulat ed, the children of Israel brought in abundance the firstfruits of grain and wine, oil and honey, and of all the produce of the field; and they brought in abundantly the tithe of everything.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:6 @ And the children of Israel and Judah, who dwelt in the cities of Judah, brought the tithe of oxen and sheep; also the tithe of holy things which were consecrat ed to the LORD their God they laid in heaps.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:7 @ In the third month they began laying them in heaps, and they finish ed in the seventh month.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:8 @ And when Hezekiah and the leaders came and saw the heaps, they bless ed the LORD and His people Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:9 @ Then Hezekiah question ed the priests and the Levites concerning the heaps.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:10 @ And Azariah the chief priest, from the house of Zadok, answer ed him and said, "Since the people began to bring the offerings into the house of the LORD, we have had enough to eat and have plenty left, for the LORD has bless ed His people; and what is left is this great abundance."

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:11 @ Now Hezekiah command ed them to prepare rooms in the house of the LORD, and they prepar ed them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:12 @ Then they faithfully brought in the offerings, the tithes, and the d edicat ed things; Cononiah the Levite had charge of them, and Shimei his brother was the next.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:15 @ And under him were Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, his faithful assistants in the cities of the priests, to distribute allotments to their brethren by divisions, to the great as well as the small.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:16 @ Besides those males from three years old and up who were written in the genealogy, they distribut ed to everyone who enter ed the house of the LORD his daily portion for the work of his service, by his division,

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:18 @ and to all who were written in the genealogy--their little ones and their wives, their sons and daughters, the whole company of them--for in their faithfulness they sanctifi ed themselves in holiness.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:19 @ Also for the sons of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the common-lands of their cities, in every single city, there were men who were designat ed by name to distribute portions to all the males among the priests and to all who were list ed by genealogies among the Levites.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:21 @ And in every work that he began in the service of the house of God, in the law and in the commandment, to seek his God, he did it with all his heart. So he prosper ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:1 @ After these de eds of faithfulness, Sennacherib king of Assyria came and enter ed Judah; he encamp ed against the fortifi ed cities, thinking to win them over to himself.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:3 @ he consult ed with his leaders and commanders to stop the water from the springs which were outside the city; and they help ed him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:4 @ Thus many people gather ed together who stopp ed all the springs and the brook that ran through the land, saying, "Why should the kings of Assyria come and find much water?"

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:5 @ And he strengthen ed himself, built up all the wall that was broken, rais ed it up to the towers, and built another wall outside; also he repair ed the Millo in the City of David, and made weapons and shields in abundance.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:6 @ Then he set military captains over the people, gather ed them together to him in the open square of the city gate, and gave them encouragement, saying,

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:7 @ "Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid nor dismay ed before the king of Assyria, nor before all the multitude that is with him; for there are more with us than with him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:8 @ With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God, to help us and to fight our battles." And the people were strengthen ed by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:12 @ Has not the same Hezekiah taken away His high places and His altars, and command ed Judah and Jerusalem, saying, "You shall worship before one altar and burn incense on it"?

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:14 @ Who was there among all the gods of those nations that my fathers utterly destroy ed that could deliver his people from my hand, that your God should be able to deliver you from my hand?

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:17 @ He also wrote letters to revile the LORD God of Israel, and to speak against Him, saying, "As the gods of the nations of other lands have not deliver ed their people from my hand, so the God of Hezekiah will not deliver His people from my hand."

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:18 @ Then they call ed out with a loud voice in Hebrew to the people of Jerusalem who were on the wall, to frighten them and trouble them, that they might take the city.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:20 @ Now because of this King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah, the son of Amoz, pray ed and cri ed out to heaven.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:21 @ Then the LORD sent an angel who cut down every mighty man of valor, leader, and captain in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he return ed shamefac ed to his own land. And when he had gone into the temple of his god, some of his own offspring struck him down with the sword there.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:22 @ Thus the LORD sav ed Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all others, and guid ed them on every side.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:23 @ And many brought gifts to the LORD at Jerusalem, and presents to Hezekiah king of Judah, so that he was exalt ed in the sight of all nations thereafter.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:24 @ In those days Hezekiah was sick and near death, and he pray ed to the LORD; and He spoke to him and gave him a sign.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:25 @ But Hezekiah did not repay according to the favor shown him, for his heart was lift ed up; therefore wrath was looming over him and over Judah and Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:26 @ Then Hezekiah humbl ed himself for the pride of his heart, he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the LORD did not come upon them in the days of Hezekiah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:29 @ Moreover he provid ed cities for himself, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance; for God had given him very much property.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:30 @ This same Hezekiah also stopp ed the water outlet of Upper Gihon, and brought the water by tunnel to the west side of the City of David. Hezekiah prosper ed in all his works.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:32 @ Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his goodness, inde ed they are written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, and in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:33 @ So Hezekiah rest ed with his fathers, and they buri ed him in the upper tombs of the sons of David; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem honor ed him at his death. Then Manasseh his son reign ed in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:1 @ Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reign ed fifty-five years in Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:3 @ For he rebuilt the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; he rais ed up altars for the Baals, and made wooden images; and he worship ed all the host of heaven and serv ed them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:6 @ Also he caus ed his sons to pass through the fire in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom; he practic ed soothsaying, us ed witchcraft and sorcery, and consult ed m ediums and spiritists. He did much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke Him to anger.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:7 @ He even set a carv ed image, the idol which he had made, in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, "In this house and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put My name forever;

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:8 @ and I will not again remove the foot of Israel from the land which I have appoint ed for your fathers--only if they are careful to do all that I have command ed them, according to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinances by the hand of Moses."

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:9 @ So Manasseh s educ ed Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to do more evil than the nations whom the LORD had destroy ed before the children of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:11 @ Therefore the LORD brought upon them the captains of the army of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh with hooks, bound him with bronze fetters, and carri ed him off to Babylon.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:12 @ Now when he was in affliction, he implor ed the LORD his God, and humbl ed himself greatly before the God of his fathers,

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:13 @ and pray ed to Him; and He receiv ed his entreaty, heard his supplication, and brought him back to Jerusalem into his kingdom. Then Manasseh knew that the LORD was God.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:14 @ After this he built a wall outside the City of David on the west side of Gihon, in the valley, as far as the entrance of the Fish Gate; and it enclos ed Ophel, and he rais ed it to a very great height. Then he put military captains in all the fortifi ed cities of Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:16 @ He also repair ed the altar of the LORD, sacrific ed peace offerings and thank offerings on it, and command ed Judah to serve the LORD God of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:17 @ Nevertheless the people still sacrific ed on the high places, but only to the LORD their God.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:18 @ Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the LORD God of Israel, inde ed they are written in the book of the kings of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:19 @ Also his prayer and how God receiv ed his entreaty, and all his sin and trespass, and the sites where he built high places and set up wooden images and carv ed images, before he was humbl ed, inde ed they are written among the sayings of Hozai.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:20 @ So Manasseh rest ed with his fathers, and they buri ed him in his own house. Then his son Amon reign ed in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:21 @ Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reign ed two years in Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:22 @ But he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done; for Amon sacrific ed to all the carv ed images which his father Manasseh had made, and serv ed them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:23 @ And he did not humble himself before the LORD, as his father Manasseh had humbl ed himself; but Amon trespass ed more and more.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:24 @ Then his servants conspir ed against him, and kill ed him in his own house.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:25 @ But the people of the land execut ed all those who had conspir ed against King Amon. Then the people of the land made his son Josiah king in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:1 @ Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reign ed thirty-one years in Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:2 @ And he did what was right in the sight of the LORD, and walk ed in the ways of his father David; he did not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:3 @ For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was still young, he began to seek the God of his father David; and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem of the high places, the wooden images, the carv ed images, and the mold ed images.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:4 @ They broke down the altars of the Baals in his presence, and the incense altars which were above them he cut down; and the wooden images, the carv ed images, and the mold ed images he broke in pieces, and made dust of them and scatter ed it on the graves of those who had sacrific ed to them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:5 @ He also burn ed the bones of the priests on their altars, and cleans ed Judah and Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:7 @ When he had broken down the altars and the wooden images, had beaten the carv ed images into powder, and cut down all the incense altars throughout all the land of Israel, he return ed to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:8 @ In the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had purg ed the land and the temple, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder, to repair the house of the LORD his God.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:9 @ When they came to Hilkiah the high priest, they deliver ed the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites who kept the doors had gather ed from the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, from all the remnant of Israel, from all Judah and Benjamin, and which they had brought back to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:10 @ Then they put it in the hand of the foremen who had the oversight of the house of the LORD; and they gave it to the workmen who work ed in the house of the LORD, to repair and restore the house.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:11 @ They gave it to the craftsmen and builders to buy hewn stone and timber for beams, and to floor the houses which the kings of Judah had destroy ed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:15 @ Then Hilkiah answer ed and said to Shaphan the scribe, "I have found the Book of the Law in the house of the LORD." And Hilkiah gave the book to Shaphan.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:16 @ So Shaphan carri ed the book to the king, bringing the king word, saying, "All that was committ ed to your servants they are doing.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:17 @ And they have gather ed the money that was found in the house of the LORD, and have deliver ed it into the hand of the overseers and the workmen."

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:19 @ Thus it happen ed, when the king heard the words of the Law, that he tore his clothes.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:20 @ Then the king command ed Hilkiah, Ahikam the son of Shaphan, Abdon the son of Micah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the king, saying,

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:21 @ "Go, inquire of the LORD for me, and for those who are left in Israel and Judah, concerning the words of the book that is found; for great is the wrath of the LORD that is pour ed out on us, because our fathers have not kept the word of the LORD, to do according to all that is written in this book."

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:22 @ So Hilkiah and those the king had appoint ed went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe. (She dwelt in Jerusalem in the Second Quarter.) And they spoke to her to that effect.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:23 @ Then she answer ed them, "Thus says the LORD God of Israel, "Tell the man who sent you to Me,

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:25 @ because they have forsaken Me and burn ed incense to other gods, that they might provoke Me to anger with all the works of their hands. Therefore My wrath will be pour ed out on this place, and not be quench ed.""

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:27 @ because your heart was tender, and you humbl ed yourself before God when you heard His words against this place and against its inhabitants, and you humbl ed yourself before Me, and you tore your clothes and wept before Me, I also have heard you," says the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:28 @ "Surely I will gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gather ed to your grave in peace; and your eyes shall not see all the calamity which I will bring on this place and its inhabitants.""' So they brought back word to the king.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:29 @ Then the king sent and gather ed all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:33 @ Thus Josiah remov ed all the abominations from all the country that belong ed to the children of Israel, and made all who were present in Israel diligently serve the LORD their God. All his days they did not depart from following the LORD God of their fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:1 @ Now Josiah kept a Passover to the LORD in Jerusalem, and they slaughter ed the Passover lambs on the fourteenth day of the first month.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:2 @ And he set the priests in their duties and encourag ed them for the service of the house of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:8 @ And his leaders gave willingly to the people, to the priests, and to the Levites. Hilkiah, Zechariah, and Jehiel, rulers of the house of God, gave to the priests for the Passover offerings two thousand six hundr ed from the flock, and three hundr ed cattle.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:9 @ Also Conaniah, his brothers Shemaiah and Nethanel, and Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, chief of the Levites, gave to the Levites for Passover offerings five thousand from the flock and five hundr ed cattle.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:10 @ So the service was prepar ed, and the priests stood in their places, and the Levites in their divisions, according to the king's command.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:11 @ And they slaughter ed the Passover offerings; and the priests sprinkl ed the blood with their hands, while the Levites skinn ed the animals.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:12 @ Then they remov ed the burnt offerings that they might give them to the divisions of the fathers' houses of the lay people, to offer to the LORD, as it is written in the Book of Moses. And so they did with the cattle.

nkjv@Ezra:10:2 @ And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, spoke up and said to Ezra, "We have trespass ed against our God, and have taken pagan wives from the peoples of the land; yet now there is hope in Israel in spite of this.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:16 @ So it was, from that time on, that half of my servants work ed at construction, while the other half held the spears, the shields, the bows, and wore armor; and the leaders were behind all the house of Judah.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:17 @ Those who built on the wall, and those who carri ed burdens, load ed themselves so that with one hand they work ed at construction, and with the other held a weapon.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:18 @ Every one of the builders had his sword gird ed at his side as he built. And the one who sound ed the trumpet was beside me.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:21 @ So we labor ed in the work, and half of the men held the spears from daybreak until the stars appear ed.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:23 @ So neither I, my brethren, my servants, nor the men of the guard who follow ed me took off our clothes, except that everyone took them off for washing.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:3 @ There were also some who said, "We have mortgag ed our lands and vineyards and houses, that we might buy grain because of the famine."

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:5 @ Yet now our flesh is as the flesh of our brethren, our children as their children; and inde ed we are forcing our sons and our daughters to be slaves, and some of our daughters have been brought into slavery. It is not in our power to r edeem them, for other men have our lands and vineyards."

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:7 @ After serious thought, I rebuk ed the nobles and rulers, and said to them, "Each of you is exacting usury from his brother." So I call ed a great assembly against them.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:8 @ And I said to them, "According to our ability we have r edeem ed our Jewish brethren who were sold to the nations. Now inde ed, will you even sell your brethren? Or should they be sold to us?" Then they were silenc ed and found nothing to say.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:11 @ Restore now to them, even this day, their lands, their vineyards, their olive groves, and their houses, also a hundr edth of the money and the grain, the new wine and the oil, that you have charg ed them."

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:12 @ So they said, "We will restore it, and will require nothing from them; we will do as you say." Then I call ed the priests, and requir ed an oath from them that they would do according to this promise.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:13 @ Then I shook out the fold of my garment and said, "So may God shake out each man from his house, and from his property, who does not perform this promise. Even thus may he be shaken out and empti ed." And all the assembly said, "Amen!" and prais ed the LORD. Then the people did according to this promise.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:14 @ Moreover, from the time that I was appoint ed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year until the thirty-second year of King Artaxerxes, twelve years, neither I nor my brothers ate the governor's provisions.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:16 @ Inde ed, I also continu ed the work on this wall, and we did not buy any land. All my servants were gather ed there for the work.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:17 @ And at my table were one hundr ed and fifty Jews and rulers, besides those who came to us from the nations around us.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:18 @ Now that which was prepar ed daily was one ox and six choice sheep. Also fowl were prepar ed for me, and once every ten days an abundance of all kinds of wine. Yet in spite of this I did not demand the governor's provisions, because the bondage was heavy on this people.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:1 @ Now it happen ed when Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem the Arab, and the rest of our enemies heard that I had rebuilt the wall, and that there were no breaks left in it (though at that time I had not hung the doors in the gates),

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:4 @ But they sent me this message four times, and I answer ed them in the same manner.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:6 @ In it was written: It is report ed among the nations, and Geshem says, that you and the Jews plan to rebel; therefore, according to these rumors, you are rebuilding the wall, that you may be their king.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:7 @ And you have also appoint ed prophets to proclaim concerning you at Jerusalem, saying, "There is a king in Judah!" Now these matters will be report ed to the king. So come, therefore, and let us consult together.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:9 @ For they all were trying to make us afraid, saying, "Their hands will be weaken ed in the work, and it will not be done." Now therefore, O God, strengthen my hands.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:10 @ Afterward I came to the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah, the son of Mehetabel, who was a secret informer; and 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; inde ed, at night they will come to kill you."

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:12 @ Then I perceiv ed that God had not sent him at all, but that he pronounc ed this prophecy against me because Tobiah and Sanballat had hir ed him.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:13 @ For this reason he was hir ed, that I should be afraid and act that way and sin, so that they might have cause for an evil report, that they might reproach me.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:15 @ So the wall was finish ed on the twenty-fifth day of Elul, in fifty-two days.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:16 @ And it happen ed, when all our enemies heard of it, and all the nations around us saw these things, that they were very dishearten ed in their own eyes; for they perceiv ed that this work was done by our God.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:18 @ For many in Judah were pl edg ed to him, because he was the son-in-law of Shechaniah the son of Arah, and his son Jehohanan had marri ed the daughter of Meshullam the son of Berechiah.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:19 @ Also they report ed his good de eds before me, and report ed my words to him. Tobiah sent letters to frighten me.

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:1 @ Then it was, when the wall was built and I had hung the doors, when the gatekeepers, the singers, and the Levites had been appoint ed,

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:2 @ that I gave the charge of Jerusalem to my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the leader of the citadel, for he was a faithful man and fear ed God more than many.

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:3 @ And I said to them, "Do not let the gates of Jerusalem be open ed until the sun is hot; and while they stand guard, let them shut and bar the doors; and appoint guards from among the inhabitants of Jerusalem, one at his watch station and another in front of his own house."

nkjv@Esther:1:9 @ Queen Vashti also made a feast for the women in the royal palace which belong ed to King Ahasuerus.

nkjv@Esther:1:17 @ For the queen's behavior will become known to all women, so that they will despise their husbands in their eyes, when they report, "King Ahasuerus command ed Queen Vashti to be brought in before him, but she did not come.'

nkjv@Esther:1:18 @ This very day the noble ladies of Persia and M edia will say to all the king's officials that they have heard of the behavior of the queen. Thus there will be excessive contempt and wrath.

nkjv@Esther:1:19 @ If it pleases the king, let a royal decree go out from him, and let it be record ed in the laws of the Persians and the M edes, so that it will not be alter ed, that Vashti shall come no more before King Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal position to another who is better than she.

And Esther obtain ed favor in the sight of all who saw her.

nkjv@Esther:2:17 @ The king lov ed Esther more than all the other women, and she obtain ed grace and favor in his sight more than all the virgins; so he set the royal crown upon her head and made her queen instead of Vashti.

nkjv@Esther:2:18 @ Then the king made a great feast, the Feast of Esther, for all his officials and servants; and he proclaim ed a holiday in the provinces and gave gifts according to the generosity of a king.

nkjv@Esther:2:19 @ When virgins were gather ed together a second time, Mordecai sat within the king's gate.

nkjv@Esther:2:20 @ Now Esther had not reveal ed her family and her people, just as Mordecai had charg ed her, for Esther obey ed the command of Mordecai as when she was brought up by him.

nkjv@Esther:2:22 @ So the matter became known to Mordecai, who told Queen Esther, and Esther inform ed the king in Mordecai's name.

nkjv@Esther:2:23 @ And when an inquiry was made into the matter, it was confirm ed, and both were hang ed on a gallows; and it was written in the book of the chronicles in the presence of the king.

nkjv@Esther:3:1 @ After these things King Ahasuerus promot ed Haman, the son of Hamm edatha the Agagite, and advanc ed him and set his seat above all the princes who were with him.

nkjv@Esther:3:2 @ And all the king's servants who were within the king's gate bow ed and paid homage to Haman, for so the king had command ed concerning him. But Mordecai would not bow or pay homage.

nkjv@Esther:3:4 @ Now it happen ed, when they spoke to him daily and he would not listen to them, that they told it to Haman, to see whether Mordecai's words would stand; for Mordecai had told them that he was a Jew.

nkjv@Esther:3:5 @ When Haman saw that Mordecai did not bow or pay him homage, Haman was fill ed with wrath.

nkjv@Esther:3:6 @ But he disdain ed to lay hands on Mordecai alone, for they had told him of the people of Mordecai. Instead, Haman sought to destroy all the Jews who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus--the people of Mordecai.

nkjv@Esther:3:8 @ Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus, "There is a certain people scatter ed and dispers ed among the people in all the provinces of your kingdom; their laws are different from all other people's, and they do not keep the king's laws. Therefore it is not fitting for the king to let them remain.

nkjv@Esther:3:9 @ If it pleases the king, let a decree be written that they be destroy ed, and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver into the hands of those who do the work, to bring it into the king's treasuries."

nkjv@Esther:3:10 @ So the king took his signet ring from his hand and gave it to Haman, the son of Hamm edatha the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:3:12 @ Then the king's scribes were call ed on the thirteenth day of the first month, and a decree was written according to all that Haman command ed--to the king's satraps, to the governors who were over each province, to the officials of all people, to every province according to its script, and to every people in their language. In the name of King Ahasuerus it was written, and seal ed with the king's signet ring.

nkjv@Esther:3:14 @ A copy of the document was to be issu ed as law in every province, being publish ed for all people, that they should be ready for that day.

nkjv@Esther:3:15 @ The couriers went out, hasten ed by the king's command; and the decree was proclaim ed in Shushan the citadel. So the king and Haman sat down to drink, but the city of Shushan was perplex ed.

nkjv@Esther:4:1 @ When Mordecai learn ed all that had happen ed, he tore his clothes and put on sackcloth and ashes, and went out into the midst of the city. He cri ed out with a loud and bitter cry.

nkjv@Esther:4:2 @ He went as far as the front of the king's gate, for no one might enter the king's gate cloth ed with sackcloth.

nkjv@Esther:4:3 @ And in every province where the king's command and decree arriv ed, there was great mourning among the Jews, with fasting, weeping, and wailing; and many lay in sackcloth and ashes.

nkjv@Esther:4:4 @ So Esther's maids and eunuchs came and told her, and the queen was deeply distress ed. Then she sent garments to clothe Mordecai and take his sackcloth away from him, but he would not accept them.

nkjv@Esther:4:5 @ Then Esther call ed Hathach, one of the king's eunuchs whom he had appoint ed to attend her, and she gave him a command concerning Mordecai, to learn what and why this was.

nkjv@Esther:4:7 @ And Mordecai told him all that had happen ed to him, and the sum of money that Haman had promis ed to pay into the king's treasuries to destroy the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:4:9 @ So Hathach return ed and told Esther the words of Mordecai.

nkjv@Esther:4:11 @ "All the king's servants and the people of the king's provinces know that any man or woman who goes into the inner court to the king, who has not been call ed, he has but one law: put all to death, except the one to whom the king holds out the golden scepter, that he may live. Yet I myself have not been call ed to go in to the king these thirty days."

nkjv@Esther:4:17 @ So Mordecai went his way and did according to all that Esther command ed him.

nkjv@Esther:5:1 @ Now it happen ed on the third day that Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the king's palace, across from the king's house, while the king sat on his royal throne in the royal house, facing the entrance of the house.

nkjv@Esther:5:2 @ So it was, when the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, that she found favor in his sight, and the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. Then Esther went near and touch ed the top of the scepter.

nkjv@Esther:5:14 @ Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, "Let a gallows be made, fifty cubits high, and in the morning suggest to the king that Mordecai be hang ed on it; then go merrily with the king to the banquet." And the thing pleas ed Haman; so he had the gallows made.

nkjv@Esther:6:1 @ That night the king could not sleep. So one was command ed to bring the book of the records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king.

nkjv@Esther:6:3 @ Then the king said, "What honor or dignity has been bestow ed on Mordecai for this?" And the king's servants who attend ed him said, "Nothing has been done for him."

nkjv@Esther:6:4 @ So the king said, "Who is in the court?" Now Haman had just enter ed the outer court of the king's palace to suggest that the king hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepar ed for him.

nkjv@Esther:6:6 @ So Haman came in, and the king ask ed him, "What shall be done for the man whom the king delights to honor?" Now Haman thought in his heart, "Whom would the king delight to honor more than me?"

nkjv@Esther:6:7 @ And Haman answer ed the king, "For the man whom the king delights to honor,

nkjv@Esther:6:8 @ let a royal robe be brought which the king has worn, and a horse on which the king has ridden, which has a royal crest plac ed on its head.

nkjv@Esther:6:9 @ Then let this robe and horse be deliver ed to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that he may array the man whom the king delights to honor. Then parade him on horseback through the city square, and proclaim before him: "Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor!'

nkjv@Esther:6:10 @ Then the king said to Haman, "Hurry, take the robe and the horse, as you have suggest ed, and do so for Mordecai the Jew who sits within the king's gate! Leave nothing undone of all that you have spoken."

nkjv@Esther:6:11 @ So Haman took the robe and the horse, array ed Mordecai and l ed him on horseback through the city square, and proclaim ed before him, "Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor!"

nkjv@Esther:6:12 @ Afterward Mordecai went back to the king's gate. But Haman hurri ed to his house, mourning and with his head cover ed.

nkjv@Esther:6:13 @ When Haman told his wife Zeresh and all his friends everything that had happen ed to him, his wise men and his wife Zeresh said to him, "If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of Jewish descent, you will not prevail against him but will surely fall before him."

nkjv@Esther:6:14 @ While they were still talking with him, the king's eunuchs came, and hasten ed to bring Haman to the banquet which Esther had prepar ed.

nkjv@Esther:7:2 @ And on the second day, at the banquet of wine, the king again said to Esther, "What is your petition, Queen Esther? It shall be grant ed you. And what is your request, up to half the kingdom? It shall be done!"

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

nkjv@Esther:7:4 @ For we have been sold, my people and I, to be destroy ed, to be kill ed, and to be annihilat ed. Had we been sold as male and female slaves, I would have held my tongue, although the enemy could never compensate for the king's loss."

nkjv@Esther:7:5 @ So King Ahasuerus answer ed and said to Queen Esther, "Who is he, and where is he, who would dare presume in his heart to do such a thing?"

nkjv@Esther:7:6 @ And Esther said, "The adversary and enemy is this wick ed Haman!" So Haman was terrifi ed before the king and queen.

nkjv@Esther:7:7 @ Then the king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine and went into the palace garden; but Haman stood before Queen Esther, pleading for his life, for he saw that evil was determin ed against him by the king.

nkjv@Esther:7:8 @ When the king return ed from the palace garden to the place of the banquet of wine, Haman had fallen across the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, "Will he also assault the queen while I am in the house?" As the word left the king's mouth, they cover ed Haman's face.

nkjv@Esther:7:10 @ So they hang ed Haman on the gallows that he had prepar ed for Mordecai. Then the king's wrath subsid ed.

nkjv@Esther:8:1 @ On that day King Ahasuerus gave Queen Esther the house of Haman, the enemy of the Jews. And Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had told how he was relat ed to her.

nkjv@Esther:8:2 @ So the king took off his signet ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai; and Esther appoint ed Mordecai over the house of Haman.

nkjv@Esther:8:3 @ Now Esther spoke again to the king, fell down at his feet, and implor ed him with tears to counteract the evil of Haman the Agagite, and the scheme which he had devis ed against the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:8:5 @ and said, "If it pleases the king, and if I have found favor in his sight and the thing seems right to the king and I am pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to revoke the letters devis ed by Haman, the son of Hamm edatha the Agagite, which he wrote to annihilate the Jews who are in all the king's provinces.

nkjv@Esther:8:7 @ Then King Ahasuerus said to Queen Esther and Mordecai the Jew, "Inde ed, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and they have hang ed him on the gallows because he tri ed to lay his hand on the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:8:8 @ You yourselves write a decree concerning the Jews, as you please, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's signet ring; for whatever is written in the king's name and seal ed with the king's signet ring no one can revoke."

nkjv@Esther:8:9 @ So the king's scribes were call ed at that time, in the third month, which is the month of Sivan, on the twenty-third day; and it was written, according to all that Mordecai command ed, to the Jews, the satraps, the governors, and the princes of the provinces from India to Ethiopia, one hundr ed and twenty-seven provinces in all, to every province in its own script, to every people in their own language, and to the Jews in their own script and language.

nkjv@Esther:8:10 @ And he wrote in the name of King Ahasuerus, seal ed it with the king's signet ring, and sent letters by couriers on horseback, riding on royal horses br ed from swift ste eds.

nkjv@Esther:8:11 @ By these letters the king permitt ed the Jews who were in every city to gather together and protect their lives--to destroy, kill, and annihilate all the forces of any people or province that would assault them, both little children and women, and to plunder their possessions,

nkjv@Esther:8:13 @ A copy of the document was to be issu ed as a decree in every province and publish ed for all people, so that the Jews would be ready on that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.

nkjv@Esther:8:14 @ The couriers who rode on royal horses went out, hasten ed and press ed on by the king's command. And the decree was issu ed in Shushan the citadel.

nkjv@Esther:8:15 @ So Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal apparel of blue and white, with a great crown of gold and a garment of fine linen and purple; and the city of Shushan rejoic ed and was glad.

nkjv@Esther:9:1 @ Now in the twelfth month, that is, the month of Adar, on the thirteenth day, the time came for the king's command and his decree to be execut ed. On the day that the enemies of the Jews had hop ed to overpower them, the opposite occurr ed, in that the Jews themselves overpower ed those who hat ed them.

nkjv@Esther:9:2 @ The Jews gather ed together in their cities throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus to lay hands on those who sought their harm. And no one could withstand them, because fear of them fell upon all people.

nkjv@Esther:9:3 @ And all the officials of the provinces, the satraps, the governors, and all those doing the king's work, help ed the Jews, because the fear of Mordecai fell upon them.

nkjv@Esther:9:5 @ Thus the Jews defeat ed all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, with slaughter and destruction, and did what they pleas ed with those who hat ed them.

nkjv@Esther:9:6 @ And in Shushan the citadel the Jews kill ed and destroy ed five hundr ed men.

nkjv@Esther:9:10 @ the ten sons of Haman the son of Hamm edatha, the enemy of the Jews--they kill ed; but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.

nkjv@Esther:9:11 @ On that day the number of those who were kill ed in Shushan the citadel was brought to the king.

nkjv@Esther:9:12 @ And the king said to Queen Esther, "The Jews have kill ed and destroy ed five hundr ed men in Shushan the citadel, and the ten sons of Haman. What have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? Now what is your petition? It shall be grant ed to you. Or what is your further request? It shall be done."

nkjv@Esther:9:13 @ Then Esther said, "If it pleases the king, let it be grant ed to the Jews who are in Shushan to do again tomorrow according to today's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hang ed on the gallows."

nkjv@Esther:9:14 @ So the king command ed this to be done; the decree was issu ed in Shushan, and they hang ed Haman's ten sons.

nkjv@Esther:9:15 @ And the Jews who were in Shushan gather ed together again on the fourteenth day of the month of Adar and kill ed three hundr ed men at Shushan; but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.

nkjv@Esther:9:16 @ The remainder of the Jews in the king's provinces gather ed together and protect ed their lives, had rest from their enemies, and kill ed seventy-five thousand of their enemies; but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.

nkjv@Esther:9:17 @ This was on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar. And on the fourteenth of the month they rest ed and made it a day of feasting and gladness.

nkjv@Esther:9:18 @ But the Jews who were at Shushan assembl ed together on the thirteenth day, as well as on the fourteenth; and on the fifteenth of the month they rest ed, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.

nkjv@Esther:9:19 @ Therefore the Jews of the villages who dwelt in the unwall ed towns celebrat ed the fourteenth day of the month of Adar with gladness and feasting, as a holiday, and for sending presents to one another.

nkjv@Esther:9:22 @ as the days on which the Jews had rest from their enemies, as the month which was turn ed from sorrow to joy for them, and from mourning to a holiday; that they should make them days of feasting and joy, of sending presents to one another and gifts to the poor.

nkjv@Esther:9:23 @ So the Jews accept ed the custom which they had begun, as Mordecai had written to them,

nkjv@Esther:9:24 @ because Haman, the son of Hamm edatha the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had plott ed against the Jews to annihilate them, and had cast Pur (that is, the lot), to consume them and destroy them;

nkjv@Esther:9:25 @ but when Esther came before the king, he command ed by letter that this wick ed plot which Haman had devis ed against the Jews should return on his own head, and that he and his sons should be hang ed on the gallows.

nkjv@Esther:9:26 @ So they call ed these days Purim, after the name Pur. Therefore, because of all the words of this letter, what they had seen concerning this matter, and what had happen ed to them,

nkjv@Esther:9:27 @ the Jews establish ed and impos ed it upon themselves and their descendants and all who would join them, that without fail they should celebrate these two days every year, according to the written instructions and according to the prescrib ed time,

nkjv@Esther:9:28 @ that these days should be remember ed and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city, that these days of Purim should not fail to be observ ed among the Jews, and that the memory of them should not perish among their descendants.

nkjv@Esther:9:30 @ And Mordecai sent letters to all the Jews, to the one hundr ed and twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with words of peace and truth,

nkjv@Esther:9:31 @ to confirm these days of Purim at their appoint ed time, as Mordecai the Jew and Queen Esther had prescrib ed for them, and as they had decre ed for themselves and their descendants concerning matters of their fasting and lamenting.

nkjv@Esther:9:32 @ So the decree of Esther confirm ed these matters of Purim, and it was written in the book.

nkjv@Esther:10:1 @ And King Ahasuerus impos ed tribute on the land and on the islands of the sea.

nkjv@Esther:10:2 @ Now all the acts of his power and his might, and the account of the greatness of Mordecai, to which the king advanc ed him, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of M edia and Persia?

nkjv@Esther:10:3 @ For Mordecai the Jew was second to King Ahasuerus, and was great among the Jews and well receiv ed by the multitude of his brethren, seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his countrymen.

nkjv@Job:1:1 @ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who fear ed God and shunn ed evil.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:17 @ I said in my heart, "God shall judge the righteous and the wick ed, For there is a time there for every purpose and for every work."

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:22 @ So I perceiv ed that nothing is better than that a man should rejoice in his own works, for that is his heritage. For who can bring him to see what will happen after him?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:1 @ Then I return ed and consider ed all the oppression that is done under the sun: And look! The tears of the oppress ed, But they have no comforter-- On the side of their oppressors there is power, But they have no comforter.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:2 @ Therefore I prais ed the dead who were already dead, More than the living who are still alive.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:3 @ Yet, better than both is he who has never exist ed, Who has not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:4 @ Again, I saw that for all toil and every skillful work a man is envi ed by his neighbor. This also is vanity and grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:7 @ Then I return ed, and I saw vanity under the sun:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:8 @ There is one alone, without companion: He has neither son nor brother. Yet there is no end to all his labors, Nor is his eye satisfi ed with riches. But he never asks, "For whom do I toil and deprive myself of good?" This also is vanity and a grave misfortune.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:12 @ Though one may be overpower ed by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:13 @ Better a poor and wise youth Than an old and foolish king who will be admonish ed no more.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:4 @ When you make a vow to God, do not delay to pay it; For He has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you have vow ed--

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:9 @ Moreover the profit of the land is for all; even the king is serv ed from the field.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:10 @ He who loves silver will not be satisfi ed with silver; Nor he who loves abundance, with increase. This also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:15 @ As he came from his mother's womb, nak ed shall he return, To go as he came; And he shall take nothing from his labor Which he may carry away in his hand.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:16 @ And this also is a severe evil-- Just exactly as he came, so shall he go. And what profit has he who has labor ed for the wind?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:3 @ If a man begets a hundr ed children and lives many years, so that the days of his years are many, but his soul is not satisfi ed with goodness, or inde ed he has no burial, I say that a stillborn child is better than he--

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:4 @ for it comes in vanity and departs in darkness, and its name is cover ed with darkness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:7 @ All the labor of man is for his mouth, And yet the soul is not satisfi ed.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:10 @ Whatever one is, he has been nam ed already, For it is known that he is man; And he cannot contend with Him who is mightier than he.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:12 @ For wisdom is a defense as money is a defense, But the excellence of knowl edge is that wisdom gives life to those who have it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:13 @ Consider the work of God; For who can make straight what He has made crook ed?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:14 @ In the day of prosperity be joyful, But in the day of adversity consider: Surely God has appoint ed the one as well as the other, So that man can find out nothing that will come after him.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:15 @ I have seen everything in my days of vanity: There is a just man who perishes in his righteousness, And there is a wick ed man who prolongs life in his wick edness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:17 @ Do not be overly wick ed, Nor be foolish: Why should you die before your time?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:22 @ For many times, also, your own heart has known That even you have curs ed others.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:23 @ All this I have prov ed by wisdom. I said, "I will be wise"; But it was far from me.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:24 @ As for that which is far off and exce edingly deep, Who can find it out?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:25 @ I appli ed my heart to know, To search and seek out wisdom and the reason of things, To know the wick edness of folly, Even of foolishness and madness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:26 @ And I find more bitter than death The woman whose heart is snares and nets, Whose hands are fetters. He who pleases God shall escape from her, But the sinner shall be trapp ed by her.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:1 @ Who is like a wise man? And who knows the interpretation of a thing? A man's wisdom makes his face shine, And the sternness of his face is chang ed.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:8 @ No one has power over the spirit to retain the spirit, And no one has power in the day of death. There is no release from that war, And wick edness will not deliver those who are given to it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:9 @ All this I have seen, and appli ed my heart to every work that is done under the sun: There is a time in which one man rules over another to his own hurt.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:10 @ Then I saw the wick ed buri ed, who had come and gone from the place of holiness, and they were forgotten in the city where they had so done. This also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:11 @ Because the sentence against an evil work is not execut ed spe edily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:12 @ Though a sinner does evil a hundr ed times, and his days are prolong ed, yet I surely know that it will be well with those who fear God, who fear before Him.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:13 @ But it will not be well with the wick ed; nor will he prolong his days, which are as a shadow, because he does not fear before God.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:14 @ There is a vanity which occurs on earth, that there are just men to whom it happens according to the work of the wick ed; again, there are wick ed men to whom it happens according to the work of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:15 @ So I commend ed enjoyment, because a man has nothing better under the sun than to eat, drink, and be merry; for this will remain with him in his labor all the days of his life which God gives him under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:16 @ When I appli ed my heart to know wisdom and to see the business that is done on earth, even though one sees no sleep day or night,

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:1 @ For I consider ed all this in my heart, so that I could declare it all: that the righteous and the wise and their works are in the hand of God. People know neither love nor hatr ed by anything they see before them.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:2 @ All things come alike to all: One event happens to the righteous and the wick ed; To the good, the clean, and the unclean; To him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice. As is the good, so is the sinner; He who takes an oath as he who fears an oath.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:4 @ But for him who is join ed to all the living there is hope, for a living dog is better than a dead lion.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:6 @ Also their love, their hatr ed, and their envy have now perish ed; Nevermore will they have a share In anything done under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:7 @ Go, eat your bread with joy, And drink your wine with a merry heart; For God has already accept ed your works.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:10 @ Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or device or knowl edge or wisdom in the grave where you are going.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:11 @ I return ed and saw under the sun that-- The race is not to the swift, Nor the battle to the strong, Nor bread to the wise, Nor riches to men of understanding, Nor favor to men of skill; But time and chance happen to them all.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:12 @ For man also does not know his time: Like fish taken in a cruel net, Like birds caught in a snare, So the sons of men are snar ed in an evil time, When it falls suddenly upon them.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:13 @ This wisdom I have also seen under the sun, and it seem ed great to me:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:14 @ There was a little city with few men in it; and a great king came against it, besieg ed it, and built great snares around it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:15 @ Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom deliver ed the city. Yet no one remember ed that same poor man.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:16 @ Then I said: "Wisdom is better than strength. Nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despis ed, And his words are not heard.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:1 @ Dead flies putrefy the perfumer's ointment, And cause it to give off a foul odor; So does a little folly to one respect ed for wisdom and honor.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:5 @ There is an evil I have seen under the sun, As an error proce eding from the ruler:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:9 @ He who quarries stones may be hurt by them, And he who splits wood may be endanger ed by it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:10 @ If the ax is dull, And one does not sharpen the edge, Then he must use more strength; But wisdom brings success.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:11 @ A serpent may bite when it is not charm ed; The babbler is no different.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:17 @ Bless ed are you, O land, when your king is the son of nobles, And your princes feast at the proper time-- For strength and not for drunkenness!

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:20 @ Do not curse the king, even in your thought; Do not curse the rich, even in your b edroom; For a bird of the air may carry your voice, And a bird in flight may tell the matter.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:6 @ In the morning sow your se ed, And in the evening do not withhold your hand; For you do not know which will prosper, Either this or that, Or whether both alike will be good.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:2 @ While the sun and the light, The moon and the stars, Are not darken ed, And the clouds do not return after the rain;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:6 @ Remember your Creator before the silver cord is loos ed, Or the golden bowl is broken, Or the pitcher shatter ed at the fountain, Or the wheel broken at the well.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:9 @ And moreover, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowl edge; yes, he ponder ed and sought out and set in order many proverbs.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:12 @ And further, my son, be admonish ed by these. Of making many books there is no end, and much study is wearisome to the flesh.

nkjv@Songs:1:3 @ Because of the fragrance of your good ointments, Your name is ointment pour ed forth; Therefore the virgins love you.

nkjv@Songs:1:5 @ I am dark, but lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, Like the tents of K edar, Like the curtains of Solomon.

nkjv@Songs:1:6 @ Do not look upon me, because I am dark, Because the sun has tann ed me. My mother's sons were angry with me; They made me the keeper of the vineyards, But my own vineyard I have not kept.

nkjv@Songs:1:7 @ Tell me, O you whom I love, Where you fe ed your flock, Where you make it rest at noon. For why should I be as one who veils herself By the flocks of your companions?

nkjv@Songs:1:8 @ If you do not know, O fairest among women, Follow in the footsteps of the flock, And fe ed your little goats Beside the shepherds' tents.

nkjv@Songs:1:9 @ I have compar ed you, my love, To my filly among Pharaoh's chariots.

nkjv@Songs:1:13 @ A bundle of myrrh is my belov ed to me, That lies all night between my breasts.

nkjv@Songs:1:14 @ My belov ed is to me a cluster of henna blooms In the vineyards of En G edi.

nkjv@Songs:1:16 @ Behold, you are handsome, my belov ed! Yes, pleasant! Also our b ed is green.

nkjv@Songs:1:17 @ The beams of our houses are c edar, And our rafters of fir.

nkjv@Songs:2:3 @ Like an apple tree among the trees of the woods, So is my belov ed among the sons. I sat down in his shade with great delight, And his fruit was sweet to my taste.

nkjv@Songs:2:8 @ The voice of my belov ed! Behold, he comes Leaping upon the mountains, Skipping upon the hills.

nkjv@Songs:2:9 @ My belov ed is like a gazelle or a young stag. Behold, he stands behind our wall; He is looking through the windows, Gazing through the lattice.

nkjv@Songs:2:10 @ My belov ed spoke, and said to me: "Rise up, my love, my fair one, And come away.

nkjv@Songs:2:12 @ The flowers appear on the earth; The time of singing has come, And the voice of the turtl edove Is heard in our land.

nkjv@Songs:2:16 @ My belov ed is mine, and I am his. He fe eds his flock among the lilies.

nkjv@Songs:2:17 @ Until the day breaks And the shadows flee away, Turn, my belov ed, And be like a gazelle Or a young stag Upon the mountains of Bether.

nkjv@Songs:3:1 @ By night on my b ed I sought the one I love; I sought him, but I did not find him.

nkjv@Songs:3:4 @ Scarcely had I pass ed by them, When I found the one I love. I held him and would not let him go, Until I had brought him to the house of my mother, And into the chamber of her who conceiv ed me.

nkjv@Songs:3:6 @ Who is this coming out of the wilderness Like pillars of smoke, Perfum ed with myrrh and frankincense, With all the merchant's fragrant powders?

nkjv@Songs:3:10 @ He made its pillars of silver, Its support of gold, Its seat of purple, Its interior pav ed with love By the daughters of Jerusalem.

nkjv@Songs:3:11 @ Go forth, O daughters of Zion, And see King Solomon with the crown With which his mother crown ed him On the day of his w edding, The day of the gladness of his heart.

nkjv@Songs:4:5 @ Your two breasts are like two fawns, Twins of a gazelle, Which fe ed among the lilies.

nkjv@Songs:4:9 @ You have ravish ed my heart, My sister, my spouse; You have ravish ed my heart With one look of your eyes, With one link of your necklace.

nkjv@Songs:4:12 @ A garden enclos ed Is my sister, my spouse, A spring shut up, A fountain seal ed.

nkjv@Songs:4:16 @ Awake, O north wind, And come, O south! Blow upon my garden, That its spices may flow out. Let my belov ed come to his garden And eat its pleasant fruits.

nkjv@Songs:5:1 @ I have come to my garden, my sister, my spouse; I have gather ed my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends! Drink, yes, drink deeply, O belov ed ones!

nkjv@Songs:5:2 @ I sleep, but my heart is awake; It is the voice of my belov ed! He knocks, saying, "Open for me, my sister, my love, My dove, my perfect one; For my head is cover ed with dew, My locks with the drops of the night."

nkjv@Songs:5:3 @ I have taken off my robe; How can I put it on again? I have wash ed my feet; How can I defile them?

nkjv@Songs:5:4 @ My belov ed put his hand By the latch of the door, And my heart yearn ed for him.

nkjv@Songs:5:5 @ I arose to open for my belov ed, And my hands dripp ed with myrrh, My fingers with liquid myrrh, On the handles of the lock.

nkjv@Songs:5:6 @ I open ed for my belov ed, But my belov ed had turn ed away and was gone. My heart leap ed up when he spoke. I sought him, but I could not find him; I call ed him, but he gave me no answer.

nkjv@Songs:5:7 @ The watchmen who went about the city found me. They struck me, they wound ed me; The keepers of the walls Took my veil away from me.

nkjv@Songs:5:8 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, If you find my belov ed, That you tell him I am lovesick!

nkjv@Songs:5:9 @ What is your belov ed More than another belov ed, O fairest among women? What is your belov ed More than another belov ed, That you so charge us?

nkjv@Songs:5:10 @ My belov ed is white and ruddy, Chief among ten thousand.

nkjv@Songs:5:12 @ His eyes are like doves By the rivers of waters, Wash ed with milk, And fitly set.

nkjv@Songs:5:13 @ His cheeks are like a b ed of spices, Banks of scent ed herbs. His lips are lilies, Dripping liquid myrrh.

nkjv@Songs:5:14 @ His hands are rods of gold Set with beryl. His body is carv ed ivory Inlaid with sapphires.

nkjv@Songs:5:15 @ His legs are pillars of marble Set on bases of fine gold. His countenance is like Lebanon, Excellent as the c edars.

nkjv@Songs:5:16 @ His mouth is most sweet, Yes, he is altogether lovely. This is my belov ed, And this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem!

nkjv@Songs:6:1 @ Where has your belov ed gone, O fairest among women? Where has your belov ed turn ed aside, That we may seek him with you?

nkjv@Songs:6:2 @ My belov ed has gone to his garden, To the b eds of spices, To fe ed his flock in the gardens, And to gather lilies.

nkjv@Songs:6:3 @ I am my belov ed's, And my belov ed is mine. He fe eds his flock among the lilies.

nkjv@Songs:6:9 @ My dove, my perfect one, Is the only one, The only one of her mother, The favorite of the one who bore her. The daughters saw her And call ed her bless ed, The queens and the concubines, And they prais ed her.

nkjv@Songs:6:11 @ I went down to the garden of nuts To see the verdure of the valley, To see whether the vine had budd ed And the pomegranates had bloom ed.

nkjv@Songs:7:2 @ Your navel is a round ed goblet; It lacks no blend ed beverage. Your waist is a heap of wheat Set about with lilies.

nkjv@Songs:7:9 @ And the roof of your mouth like the best wine. The wine goes down smoothly for my belov ed, Moving gently the lips of sleepers.

nkjv@Songs:7:10 @ I am my belov ed's, And his desire is toward me.

nkjv@Songs:7:11 @ Come, my belov ed, Let us go forth to the field; Let us lodge in the villages.

nkjv@Songs:7:12 @ Let us get up early to the vineyards; Let us see if the vine has budd ed, Whether the grape blossoms are open, And the pomegranates are in bloom. There I will give you my love.

nkjv@Songs:7:13 @ The mandrakes give off a fragrance, And at our gates are pleasant fruits, All manner, new and old, Which I have laid up for you, my belov ed.

nkjv@Songs:8:1 @ Oh, that you were like my brother, Who nurs ed at my mother's breasts! If I should find you outside, I would kiss you; I would not be despis ed.

nkjv@Songs:8:2 @ I would lead you and bring you Into the house of my mother, She who us ed to instruct me. I would cause you to drink of spic ed wine, Of the juice of my pomegranate.

nkjv@Songs:8:5 @ Who is this coming up from the wilderness, Leaning upon her belov ed? I awaken ed you under the apple tree. There your mother brought you forth; There she who bore you brought you forth.

nkjv@Songs:8:7 @ Many waters cannot quench love, Nor can the floods drown it. If a man would give for love All the wealth of his house, It would be utterly despis ed.

nkjv@Songs:8:9 @ If she is a wall, We will build upon her A battlement of silver; And if she is a door, We will enclose her With boards of c edar.

nkjv@Songs:8:11 @ Solomon had a vineyard at Baal Hamon; He leas ed the vineyard to keepers; Everyone was to bring for its fruit A thousand silver coins.

nkjv@Songs:8:12 @ My own vineyard is before me. You, O Solomon, may have a thousand, And those who tend its fruit two hundr ed.

nkjv@Songs:8:14 @ Make haste, my belov ed, And be like a gazelle Or a young stag On the mountains of spices.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:2 @ Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth! For the LORD has spoken: "I have nourish ed and brought up children, And they have rebell ed against Me;

nkjv@Isaiah:1:4 @ Alas, sinful nation, A people laden with iniquity, A brood of evildoers, Children who are corrupters! They have forsaken the LORD, They have provok ed to anger The Holy One of Israel, They have turn ed away backward.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:6 @ From the sole of the foot even to the head, There is no soundness in it, But wounds and bruises and putrefying sores; They have not been clos ed or bound up, Or sooth ed with ointment.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:7 @ Your country is desolate, Your cities are burn ed with fire; Strangers devour your land in your presence; And it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:8 @ So the daughter of Zion is left as a booth in a vineyard, As a hut in a garden of cucumbers, As a besieg ed city.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:11 @ "To what purpose is the multitude of your sacrifices to Me?" Says the LORD. "I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams And the fat of f ed cattle. I do not delight in the blood of bulls, Or of lambs or goats.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:12 @ "When you come to appear before Me, Who has requir ed this from your hand, To trample My courts?

nkjv@Isaiah:1:13 @ Bring no more futile sacrifices; Incense is an abomination to Me. The New Moons, the Sabbaths, and the calling of assemblies-- I cannot endure iniquity and the sacr ed meeting.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:14 @ Your New Moons and your appoint ed feasts My soul hates; They are a trouble to Me, I am weary of bearing them.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:18 @ "Come now, and let us reason together," Says the LORD, "Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are r ed like crimson, They shall be as wool.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:19 @ If you are willing and ob edient, You shall eat the good of the land;

nkjv@Isaiah:1:20 @ But if you refuse and rebel, You shall be devour ed by the sword"; For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:21 @ How the faithful city has become a harlot! It was full of justice; Righteousness lodg ed in it, But now murderers.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:22 @ Your silver has become dross, Your wine mix ed with water.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:26 @ I will restore your judges as at the first, And your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be call ed the city of righteousness, the faithful city."

nkjv@Isaiah:1:27 @ Zion shall be r edeem ed with justice, And her penitents with righteousness.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:28 @ The destruction of transgressors and of sinners shall be together, And those who forsake the LORD shall be consum ed.

nkjv@Isaiah:1:29 @ For they shall be asham ed of the terebinth trees Which you have desir ed; And you shall be embarrass ed because of the gardens Which you have chosen.

nkjv@Isaiah:2:2 @ Now it shall come to pass in the latter days That the mountain of the LORD's house Shall be establish ed on the top of the mountains, And shall be exalt ed above the hills; And all nations shall flow to it.

nkjv@Isaiah:2:6 @ For You have forsaken Your people, the house of Jacob, Because they are fill ed with eastern ways; They are soothsayers like the Philistines, And they are pleas ed with the children of foreigners.

nkjv@Isaiah:2:11 @ The lofty looks of man shall be humbl ed, The haughtiness of men shall be bow ed down, And the LORD alone shall be exalt ed in that day.

nkjv@Isaiah:2:12 @ For the day of the LORD of hosts Shall come upon everything proud and lofty, Upon everything lift ed up-- And it shall be brought low--

nkjv@Isaiah:2:13 @ Upon all the c edars of Lebanon that are high and lift ed up, And upon all the oaks of Bashan;

nkjv@Isaiah:2:14 @ Upon all the high mountains, And upon all the hills that are lift ed up;

nkjv@Isaiah:2:15 @ Upon every high tower, And upon every fortifi ed wall;

nkjv@Isaiah:2:17 @ The loftiness of man shall be bow ed down, And the haughtiness of men shall be brought low; The LORD alone will be exalt ed in that day,

nkjv@Isaiah:3:5 @ The people will be oppress ed, Every one by another and every one by his neighbor; The child will be insolent toward the elder, And the base toward the honorable."

nkjv@Isaiah:3:8 @ For Jerusalem stumbl ed, And Judah is fallen, Because their tongue and their doings Are against the LORD, To provoke the eyes of His glory.

nkjv@Isaiah:3:11 @ Woe to the wick ed! It shall be ill with him, For the reward of his hands shall be given him.

nkjv@Isaiah:3:16 @ Moreover the LORD says: "Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, And walk with outstretch ed necks And wanton eyes, Walking and mincing as they go, Making a jingling with their feet,

nkjv@Isaiah:4:4 @ When the Lord has wash ed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and purg ed the blood of Jerusalem from her midst, by the spirit of judgment and by the spirit of burning,

nkjv@Isaiah:5:1 @ Now let me sing to my Well-belov ed A song of my Belov ed regarding His vineyard: My Well-belov ed has a vineyard On a very fruitful hill.

nkjv@Isaiah:5:2 @ He dug it up and clear ed out its stones, And plant ed it with the choicest vine. He built a tower in its midst, And also made a winepress in it; So He expect ed it to bring forth good grapes, But it brought forth wild grapes.

nkjv@Isaiah:5:4 @ What more could have been done to My vineyard That I have not done in it? Why then, when I expect ed it to bring forth good grapes, Did it bring forth wild grapes?

nkjv@Isaiah:5:5 @ And now, please let Me tell you what I will do to My vineyard: I will take away its h edge, and it shall be burn ed; And break down its wall, and it shall be trampl ed down.

nkjv@Isaiah:5:6 @ I will lay it waste; It shall not be prun ed or dug, But there shall come up briers and thorns. I will also command the clouds That they rain no rain on it."

nkjv@Isaiah:5:7 @ For the vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, And the men of Judah are His pleasant plant. He look ed for justice, but behold, oppression; For righteousness, but behold, a cry for help.

nkjv@Isaiah:5:10 @ For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, And a homer of se ed shall yield one ephah."

nkjv@Isaiah:5:13 @ Therefore my people have gone into captivity, Because they have no knowl edge; Their honorable men are famish ed, And their multitude dri ed up with thirst.

nkjv@Isaiah:5:14 @ Therefore Sheol has enlarg ed itself And open ed its mouth beyond measure; Their glory and their multitude and their pomp, And he who is jubilant, shall descend into it.

nkjv@Isaiah:5:15 @ People shall be brought down, Each man shall be humbl ed, And the eyes of the lofty shall be humbl ed.

nkjv@Isaiah:5:16 @ But the LORD of hosts shall be exalt ed in judgment, And God who is holy shall be hallow ed in righteousness.

nkjv@Isaiah:5:17 @ Then the lambs shall fe ed in their pasture, And in the waste places of the fat ones strangers shall eat.

nkjv@Isaiah:5:19 @ That say, "Let Him make spe ed and hasten His work, That we may see it; And let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near and come, That we may know it."

nkjv@Isaiah:5:23 @ Who justify the wick ed for a bribe, And take away justice from the righteous man!

nkjv@Isaiah:5:24 @ Therefore, as the fire devours the stubble, And the flame consumes the chaff, So their root will be as rottenness, And their blossom will ascend like dust; Because they have reject ed the law of the LORD of hosts, And despis ed the word of the Holy One of Israel.

nkjv@Isaiah:5:25 @ Therefore the anger of the LORD is arous ed against His people; He has stretch ed out His hand against them And stricken them, And the hills trembl ed. Their carcasses were as refuse in the midst of the streets. For all this His anger is not turn ed away, But His hand is stretch ed out still.

nkjv@Daniel:2:41 @ Whereas you saw the feet and toes, partly of potter's clay and partly of iron, the kingdom shall be divid ed; yet the strength of the iron shall be in it, just as you saw the iron mix ed with ceramic clay.

nkjv@Daniel:2:43 @ As you saw iron mix ed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the se ed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay.

nkjv@Daniel:2:44 @ And in the days of these kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroy ed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people; it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.

nkjv@Daniel:5:26 @ This is the interpretation of each word. MENE: God has number ed your kingdom, and finish ed it;

nkjv@Daniel:5:27 @ TEKEL: You have been weigh ed in the balances, and found wanting;

nkjv@Daniel:5:28 @ PERES: Your kingdom has been divid ed, and given to the M edes and Persians."

nkjv@Daniel:5:29 @ Then Belshazzar gave the command, and they cloth ed Daniel with purple and put a chain of gold around his neck, and made a proclamation concerning him that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.

nkjv@Daniel:5:31 @ And Darius the M ede receiv ed the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old.

nkjv@Daniel:6:1 @ It pleas ed Darius to set over the kingdom one hundr ed and twenty satraps, to be over the whole kingdom;

nkjv@Daniel:6:3 @ Then this Daniel distinguish ed himself above the governors and satraps, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king gave thought to setting him over the whole realm.

nkjv@Daniel:6:6 @ So these governors and satraps throng ed before the king, and said thus to him: "King Darius, live forever!

nkjv@Daniel:6:7 @ All the governors of the kingdom, the administrators and satraps, the counselors and advisors, have consult ed together to establish a royal statute and to make a firm decree, that whoever petitions any god or man for thirty days, except you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions.

nkjv@Daniel:6:8 @ Now, O king, establish the decree and sign the writing, so that it cannot be chang ed, according to the law of the M edes and Persians, which does not alter."

nkjv@Daniel:6:9 @ Therefore King Darius sign ed the written decree.

nkjv@Daniel:6:10 @ Now when Daniel knew that the writing was sign ed, he went home. And in his upper room, with his windows open toward Jerusalem, he knelt down on his knees three times that day, and pray ed and gave thanks before his God, as was his custom since early days.

nkjv@Daniel:6:11 @ Then these men assembl ed and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God.

nkjv@Daniel:6:12 @ And they went before the king, and spoke concerning the king's decree: "Have you not sign ed a decree that every man who petitions any god or man within thirty days, except you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions?" The king answer ed and said, "The thing is true, according to the law of the M edes and Persians, which does not alter."

nkjv@Daniel:6:13 @ So they answer ed and said before the king, "That Daniel, who is one of the captives from Judah, does not show due regard for you, O king, or for the decree that you have sign ed, but makes his petition three times a day."

nkjv@Daniel:6:14 @ And the king, when he heard these words, was greatly displeas ed with himself, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him; and he labor ed till the going down of the sun to deliver him.

nkjv@Daniel:6:15 @ Then these men approach ed the king, and said to the king, "Know, O king, that it is the law of the M edes and Persians that no decree or statute which the king establishes may be chang ed."

nkjv@Daniel:6:17 @ Then a stone was brought and laid on the mouth of the den, and the king seal ed it with his own signet ring and with the signets of his lords, that the purpose concerning Daniel might not be chang ed.

nkjv@Daniel:6:20 @ And when he came to the den, he cri ed out with a lamenting voice to Daniel. The king spoke, saying to Daniel, "Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you from the lions?"

nkjv@Daniel:6:23 @ Now the king was exce edingly glad for him, and command ed that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no injury whatever was found on him, because he believ ed in his God.

nkjv@Daniel:6:24 @ And the king gave the command, and they brought those men who had accus ed Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions--them, their children, and their wives; and the lions overpower ed them, and broke all their bones in pieces before they ever came to the bottom of the den.

nkjv@Daniel:6:25 @ Then King Darius wrote: To all peoples, nations, and languages that dwell in all the earth: Peace be multipli ed to you.

nkjv@Daniel:6:26 @ I make a decree that in every dominion of my kingdom men must tremble and fear before the God of Daniel. For He is the living God, And steadfast forever; His kingdom is the one which shall not be destroy ed, And His dominion shall endure to the end.

nkjv@Daniel:6:27 @ He delivers and rescues, And He works signs and wonders In heaven and on earth, Who has deliver ed Daniel from the power of the lions.

nkjv@Daniel:6:28 @ So this Daniel prosper ed in the reign of Darius and in the reign of Cyrus the Persian.

nkjv@Daniel:7:1 @ In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon, Daniel had a dream and visions of his head while on his b ed. Then he wrote down the dream, telling the main facts.

nkjv@Daniel:7:4 @ The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings. I watch ed till its wings were pluck ed off; and it was lift ed up from the earth and made to stand on two feet like a man, and a man's heart was given to it.

nkjv@Daniel:7:5 @ "And suddenly another beast, a second, like a bear. It was rais ed up on one side, and had three ribs in its mouth between its teeth. And they said thus to it: "Arise, devour much flesh!'

nkjv@Daniel:7:6 @ "After this I look ed, and there was another, like a leopard, which had on its back four wings of a bird. The beast also had four heads, and dominion was given to it.

nkjv@Daniel:7:7 @ "After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, exce edingly strong. It had huge iron teeth; it was devouring, breaking in pieces, and trampling the residue with its feet. It was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns.

nkjv@Daniel:7:8 @ I was considering the horns, and there was another horn, a little one, coming up among them, before whom three of the first horns were pluck ed out by the roots. And there, in this horn, were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking pompous words.

nkjv@Daniel:7:9 @ "I watch ed till thrones were put in place, And the Ancient of Days was seat ed; His garment was white as snow, And the hair of His head was like pure wool. His throne was a fiery flame, Its wheels a burning fire;

nkjv@Daniel:7:10 @ A fiery stream issu ed And came forth from before Him. A thousand thousands minister ed to Him; Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before Him. The court was seat ed, And the books were open ed.

nkjv@Daniel:7:11 @ "I watch ed then because of the sound of the pompous words which the horn was speaking; I watch ed till the beast was slain, and its body destroy ed and given to the burning flame.

nkjv@Daniel:7:12 @ As for the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away, yet their lives were prolong ed for a season and a time.

nkjv@Daniel:7:14 @ Then to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, That all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, Which shall not pass away, And His kingdom the one Which shall not be destroy ed.

nkjv@Daniel:7:15 @ "I, Daniel, was griev ed in my spirit within my body, and the visions of my head troubl ed me.

nkjv@Daniel:7:16 @ I came near to one of those who stood by, and ask ed him the truth of all this. So he told me and made known to me the interpretation of these things:

nkjv@Daniel:7:19 @ "Then I wish ed to know the truth about the fourth beast, which was different from all the others, exce edingly dreadful, with its teeth of iron and its nails of bronze, which devour ed, broke in pieces, and trampl ed the residue with its feet;

nkjv@Daniel:7:26 @ "But the court shall be seat ed, And they shall take away his dominion, To consume and destroy it forever.

nkjv@Daniel:7:28 @ "This is the end of the account. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts greatly troubl ed me, and my countenance chang ed; but I kept the matter in my heart."

nkjv@Daniel:8:1 @ In the third year of the reign of King Belshazzar a vision appear ed to me--to me, Daniel--after the one that appear ed to me the first time.

nkjv@Daniel:8:2 @ I saw in the vision, and it so happen ed while I was looking, that I was in Shushan, the citadel, which is in the province of Elam; and I saw in the vision that I was by the River Ulai.

nkjv@Daniel:8:3 @ Then I lift ed my eyes and saw, and there, standing beside the river, was a ram which had two horns, and the two horns were high; but one was higher than the other, and the higher one came up last.

nkjv@Daniel:8:7 @ And I saw him confronting the ram; he was mov ed with rage against him, attack ed the ram, and broke his two horns. There was no power in the ram to withstand him, but he cast him down to the ground and trampl ed him; and there was no one that could deliver the ram from his hand.

nkjv@Daniel:8:9 @ And out of one of them came a little horn which grew exce edingly great toward the south, toward the east, and toward the Glorious Land.

nkjv@Daniel:8:10 @ And it grew up to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and some of the stars to the ground, and trampl ed them.

nkjv@Daniel:8:11 @ He even exalt ed himself as high as the Prince of the host; and by him the daily sacrifices were taken away, and the place of His sanctuary was cast down.

nkjv@Daniel:8:12 @ Because of transgression, an army was given over to the horn to oppose the daily sacrifices; and he cast truth down to the ground. He did all this and prosper ed.

nkjv@Daniel:8:13 @ Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to that certain one who was speaking, "How long will the vision be, concerning the daily sacrifices and the transgression of desolation, the giving of both the sanctuary and the host to be trampl ed underfoot?"

nkjv@Daniel:8:14 @ And he said to me, "For two thousand three hundr ed days; then the sanctuary shall be cleans ed."

nkjv@Daniel:8:15 @ Then it happen ed, when I, Daniel, had seen the vision and was seeking the meaning, that suddenly there stood before me one having the appearance of a man.

nkjv@Daniel:8:16 @ And I heard a man's voice between the banks of the Ulai, who call ed, and said, "Gabriel, make this man understand the vision."

nkjv@Daniel:8:18 @ Now, as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep with my face to the ground; but he touch ed me, and stood me upright.

nkjv@Daniel:8:19 @ And he said, "Look, I am making known to you what shall happen in the latter time of the indignation; for at the appoint ed time the end shall be.

nkjv@Daniel:8:20 @ The ram which you saw, having the two horns--they are the kings of M edia and Persia.

nkjv@Daniel:8:23 @ "And in the latter time of their kingdom, When the transgressors have reach ed their fullness, A king shall arise, Having fierce features, Who understands sinister schemes.

nkjv@Daniel:8:27 @ And I, Daniel, faint ed and was sick for days; afterward I arose and went about the king's business. I was astonish ed by the vision, but no one understood it.

nkjv@Daniel:9:1 @ In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the lineage of the M edes, who was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans--

nkjv@Daniel:9:2 @ in the first year of his reign I, Daniel, understood by the books the number of the years specifi ed by the word of the LORD through Jeremiah the prophet, that He would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.

nkjv@Daniel:9:4 @ And I pray ed to the LORD my God, and made confession, and said, "O Lord, great and awesome God, who keeps His covenant and mercy with those who love Him, and with those who keep His commandments,

nkjv@Mark:1:7 @ And he preach ed, saying, "There comes One after me who is mightier than I, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to stoop down and loose.

nkjv@Mark:1:8 @ I inde ed baptiz ed you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."

nkjv@Mark:1:9 @ It came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptiz ed by John in the Jordan.

nkjv@Mark:1:10 @ And imm ediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove.

nkjv@Mark:1:11 @ Then a voice came from heaven, "You are My belov ed Son, in whom I am well pleas ed."

nkjv@Mark:1:12 @ Imm ediately the Spirit drove Him into the wilderness.

nkjv@Mark:1:13 @ And He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempt ed by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; and the angels minister ed to Him.

nkjv@Mark:1:15 @ and saying, "The time is fulfill ed, and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel."

nkjv@Mark:1:16 @ And as He walk ed by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

nkjv@Mark:1:18 @ They imm ediately left their nets and follow ed Him.

nkjv@Mark:1:19 @ When He had gone a little farther from there, He saw James the son of Zeb edee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.

nkjv@Mark:1:20 @ And imm ediately He call ed them, and they left their father Zeb edee in the boat with the hir ed servants, and went after Him.

nkjv@Mark:1:21 @ Then they went into Capernaum, and imm ediately on the Sabbath He enter ed the synagogue and taught.

nkjv@Mark:1:22 @ And they were astonish ed at His teaching, for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

nkjv@Mark:1:23 @ Now there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit. And he cri ed out,

nkjv@Mark:1:25 @ But Jesus rebuk ed him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!"

nkjv@Mark:1:26 @ And when the unclean spirit had convuls ed him and cri ed out with a loud voice, he came out of him.

nkjv@Mark:1:27 @ Then they were all amaz ed, so that they question ed among themselves, saying, "What is this? What new doctrine is this? For with authority He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him."

nkjv@Mark:1:28 @ And imm ediately His fame spread throughout all the region around Galilee.

nkjv@Mark:1:29 @ Now as soon as they had come out of the synagogue, they enter ed the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

nkjv@Mark:1:31 @ So He came and took her by the hand and lift ed her up, and imm ediately the fever left her. And she serv ed them.

nkjv@Mark:1:32 @ At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to Him all who were sick and those who were demon-possess ed.

nkjv@Mark:1:33 @ And the whole city was gather ed together at the door.

nkjv@Mark:1:34 @ Then He heal ed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew Him.

nkjv@Mark:1:35 @ Now in the morning, having risen a long while before daylight, He went out and depart ed to a solitary place; and there He pray ed.

nkjv@Mark:1:36 @ And Simon and those who were with Him search ed for Him.

nkjv@Mark:1:41 @ Then Jesus, mov ed with compassion, stretch ed out His hand and touch ed him, and said to him, "I am willing; be cleans ed."

nkjv@Mark:1:42 @ As soon as He had spoken, imm ediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleans ed.

nkjv@Mark:1:43 @ And He strictly warn ed him and sent him away at once,

nkjv@Mark:1:44 @ and said to him, "See that you say nothing to anyone; but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing those things which Moses command ed, as a testimony to them."

nkjv@Mark:1:45 @ However, he went out and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread the matter, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter the city, but was outside in desert ed places; and they came to Him from every direction.

nkjv@Mark:2:1 @ And again He enter ed Capernaum after some days, and it was heard that He was in the house.

nkjv@Mark:2:2 @ Imm ediately many gather ed together, so that there was no longer room to receive them, not even near the door. And He preach ed the word to them.

nkjv@Mark:2:3 @ Then they came to Him, bringing a paralytic who was carri ed by four men.

nkjv@Mark:2:4 @ And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd, they uncover ed the roof where He was. So when they had broken through, they let down the b ed on which the paralytic was lying.

nkjv@Mark:2:8 @ But imm ediately, when Jesus perceiv ed in His spirit that they reason ed thus within themselves, He said to them, "Why do you reason about these things in your hearts?

nkjv@Mark:2:9 @ Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, "Your sins are forgiven you,' or to say, "Arise, take up your b ed and walk'?

nkjv@Mark:2:11 @ "I say to you, arise, take up your b ed, and go to your house."

nkjv@Mark:2:12 @ Imm ediately he arose, took up the b ed, and went out in the presence of them all, so that all were amaz ed and glorifi ed God, saying, "We never saw anything like this!"

nkjv@Mark:2:14 @ As He pass ed by, He saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me." So he arose and follow ed Him.

nkjv@Mark:2:15 @ Now it happen ed, as He was dining in Levi's house, that many tax collectors and sinners also sat together with Jesus and His disciples; for there were many, and they follow ed Him.

nkjv@Mark:2:17 @ When Jesus heard it, He said to them, "Those who are well have no ne ed of a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance."

nkjv@Mark:2:22 @ And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine bursts the wineskins, the wine is spill ed, and the wineskins are ruin ed. But new wine must be put into new wineskins."

nkjv@Mark:2:23 @ Now it happen ed that He went through the grainfields on the Sabbath; and as they went His disciples began to pluck the heads of grain.

nkjv@Mark:2:25 @ But He said to them, "Have you never read what David did when he was in ne ed and hungry, he and those with him:

nkjv@Mark:3:1 @ And He enter ed the synagogue again, and a man was there who had a wither ed hand.

nkjv@Mark:3:2 @ So they watch ed Him closely, whether He would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse Him.

nkjv@Mark:3:3 @ And He said to the man who had the wither ed hand, "Step forward."

nkjv@Mark:3:5 @ And when He had look ed around at them with anger, being griev ed by the hardness of their hearts, He said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." And he stretch ed it out, and his hand was restor ed as whole as the other.

nkjv@Mark:3:6 @ Then the Pharisees went out and imm ediately plott ed with the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him.

nkjv@Mark:3:7 @ But Jesus withdrew with His disciples to the sea. And a great multitude from Galilee follow ed Him, and from Judea

nkjv@Mark:3:10 @ For He heal ed many, so that as many as had afflictions press ed about Him to touch Him.

nkjv@Mark:3:11 @ And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw Him, fell down before Him and cri ed out, saying, "You are the Son of God."

nkjv@Mark:3:12 @ But He sternly warn ed them that they should not make Him known.

nkjv@Mark:3:13 @ And He went up on the mountain and call ed to Him those He Himself want ed. And they came to Him.

nkjv@Mark:3:14 @ Then He appoint ed twelve, that they might be with Him and that He might send them out to preach,

nkjv@Mark:3:17 @ James the son of Zeb edee and John the brother of James, to whom He gave the name Boanerges, that is, "Sons of Thunder";

nkjv@Mark:3:19 @ and Judas Iscariot, who also betray ed Him. And they went into a house.

nkjv@Mark:3:23 @ So He call ed them to Himself and said to them in parables: "How can Satan cast out Satan?

nkjv@Mark:3:24 @ If a kingdom is divid ed against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

nkjv@Mark:3:25 @ And if a house is divid ed against itself, that house cannot stand.

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

nkjv@Mark:3:33 @ But He answer ed them, saying, "Who is My mother, or My brothers?"

nkjv@Mark:3:34 @ And He look ed around in a circle at those who sat about Him, and said, "Here are My mother and My brothers!

nkjv@Mark:4:1 @ And again He began to teach by the sea. And a great multitude was gather ed to Him, so that He got into a boat and sat in it on the sea; and the whole multitude was on the land facing the sea.

nkjv@Mark:4:4 @ And it happen ed, as he sow ed, that some se ed fell by the wayside; and the birds of the air came and devour ed it.

nkjv@Mark:4:5 @ Some fell on stony ground, where it did not have much earth; and imm ediately it sprang up because it had no depth of earth.

nkjv@Mark:4:6 @ But when the sun was up it was scorch ed, and because it had no root it wither ed away.

nkjv@Mark:4:7 @ And some se ed fell among thorns; and the thorns grew up and chok ed it, and it yield ed no crop.

nkjv@Mark:4:8 @ But other se ed fell on good ground and yield ed a crop that sprang up, increas ed and produc ed: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundr ed."

nkjv@Mark:4:10 @ But when He was alone, those around Him with the twelve ask ed Him about the parable.

nkjv@Mark:4:15 @ And these are the ones by the wayside where the word is sown. When they hear, Satan comes imm ediately and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts.

nkjv@Mark:4:16 @ These likewise are the ones sown on stony ground who, when they hear the word, imm ediately receive it with gladness;

nkjv@Mark:4:17 @ and they have no root in themselves, and so endure only for a time. Afterward, when tribulation or persecution arises for the word's sake, imm ediately they stumble.

nkjv@Mark:4:20 @ But these are the ones sown on good ground, those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundr ed."

nkjv@Mark:4:21 @ Also He said to them, "Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a b ed? Is it not to be set on a lampstand?

nkjv@Mark:4:22 @ For there is nothing hidden which will not be reveal ed, nor has anything been kept secret but that it should come to light.

nkjv@Mark:4:24 @ Then He said to them, "Take he ed what you hear. With the same measure you use, it will be measur ed to you; and to you who hear, more will be given.

nkjv@Mark:4:26 @ And He said, "The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter se ed on the ground,

nkjv@Mark:4:27 @ and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the se ed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how.

nkjv@Mark:4:29 @ But when the grain ripens, imm ediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come."

nkjv@Mark:4:31 @ It is like a mustard se ed which, when it is sown on the ground, is smaller than all the se eds on earth;

nkjv@Mark:4:34 @ But without a parable He did not speak to them. And when they were alone, He explain ed all things to His disciples.

nkjv@Mark:4:39 @ Then He arose and rebuk ed the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace, be still!" And the wind ceas ed and there was a great calm.

nkjv@Mark:4:41 @ And they fear ed exce edingly, and said to one another, "Who can this be, that even the wind and the sea obey Him!"

nkjv@Mark:5:2 @ And when He had come out of the boat, imm ediately there met Him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

nkjv@Mark:5:4 @ because he had often been bound with shackles and chains. And the chains had been pull ed apart by him, and the shackles broken in pieces; neither could anyone tame him.

nkjv@Mark:5:6 @ When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worship ed Him.

nkjv@Mark:5:7 @ And he cri ed out with a loud voice and said, "What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God that You do not torment me."

nkjv@Mark:5:9 @ Then He ask ed him, "What is your name?" And he answer ed, saying, "My name is Legion; for we are many."

nkjv@Mark:5:10 @ Also he begg ed Him earnestly that He would not send them out of the country.

nkjv@Mark:5:11 @ Now a large herd of swine was fe eding there near the mountains.

nkjv@Mark:5:12 @ So all the demons begg ed Him, saying, "Send us to the swine, that we may enter them."

nkjv@Mark:5:13 @ And at once Jesus gave them permission. Then the unclean spirits went out and enter ed the swine (there were about two thousand); and the herd ran violently down the steep place into the sea, and drown ed in the sea.

nkjv@Mark:5:14 @ So those who f ed the swine fl ed, and they told it in the city and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that had happen ed.

nkjv@Mark:5:15 @ Then they came to Jesus, and saw the one who had been demon-possess ed and had the legion, sitting and cloth ed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

nkjv@Mark:5:16 @ And those who saw it told them how it happen ed to him who had been demon-possess ed, and about the swine.

nkjv@Mark:5:18 @ And when He got into the boat, he who had been demon-possess ed begg ed Him that he might be with Him.

nkjv@Mark:5:20 @ And he depart ed and began to proclaim in Decapolis all that Jesus had done for him; and all marvel ed.

nkjv@Mark:5:21 @ Now when Jesus had cross ed over again by boat to the other side, a great multitude gather ed to Him; and He was by the sea.

nkjv@Mark:5:23 @ and begg ed Him earnestly, saying, "My little daughter lies at the point of death. Come and lay Your hands on her, that she may be heal ed, and she will live."

nkjv@Mark:5:24 @ So Jesus went with him, and a great multitude follow ed Him and throng ed Him.

nkjv@Mark:5:26 @ and had suffer ed many things from many physicians. She had spent all that she had and was no better, but rather grew worse.

nkjv@Mark:5:27 @ When she heard about Jesus, she came behind Him in the crowd and touch ed His garment.

nkjv@Mark:5:29 @ Imm ediately the fountain of her blood was dri ed up, and she felt in her body that she was heal ed of the affliction.

nkjv@Mark:5:30 @ And Jesus, imm ediately knowing in Himself that power had gone out of Him, turn ed around in the crowd and said, "Who touch ed My clothes?"

nkjv@Mark:5:31 @ But His disciples said to Him, "You see the multitude thronging You, and You say, "Who touch ed Me?"'

nkjv@Mark:5:32 @ And He look ed around to see her who had done this thing.

nkjv@Mark:5:33 @ But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had happen ed to her, came and fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth.

nkjv@Mark:5:34 @ And He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be heal ed of your affliction."

nkjv@Mark:5:37 @ And He permitt ed no one to follow Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.

nkjv@Mark:5:38 @ Then He came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and saw a tumult and those who wept and wail ed loudly.

nkjv@Mark:5:40 @ And they ridicul ed Him. But when He had put them all outside, He took the father and the mother of the child, and those who were with Him, and enter ed where the child was lying.

nkjv@Mark:5:41 @ Then He took the child by the hand, and said to her, "Talitha, cumi," which is translat ed, "Little girl, I say to you, arise."

nkjv@Mark:5:42 @ Imm ediately the girl arose and walk ed, for she was twelve years of age. And they were overcome with great amazement.

nkjv@Mark:5:43 @ But He command ed them strictly that no one should know it, and said that something should be given her to eat.

nkjv@Mark:6:1 @ Then He went out from there and came to His own country, and His disciples follow ed Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:2 @ And when the Sabbath had come, He began to teach in the synagogue. And many hearing Him were astonish ed, saying, "Where did this Man get these things? And what wisdom is this which is given to Him, that such mighty works are perform ed by His hands!

nkjv@Mark:6:3 @ Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?" So they were offend ed at Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:5 @ Now He could do no mighty work there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and heal ed them.

nkjv@Mark:6:6 @ And He marvel ed because of their unbelief. Then He went about the villages in a circuit, teaching.

nkjv@Mark:6:7 @ And He call ed the twelve to Himself, and began to send them out two by two, and gave them power over unclean spirits.

nkjv@Mark:6:8 @ He command ed them to take nothing for the journey except a staff--no bag, no bread, no copper in their money belts--

nkjv@Mark:6:11 @ And whoever will not receive you nor hear you, when you depart from there, shake off the dust under your feet as a testimony against them. Assur edly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!"

nkjv@Mark:6:12 @ So they went out and preach ed that people should repent.

nkjv@Mark:6:13 @ And they cast out many demons, and anoint ed with oil many who were sick, and heal ed them.

nkjv@Mark:6:16 @ But when Herod heard, he said, "This is John, whom I behead ed; he has been rais ed from the dead!"

nkjv@Mark:6:17 @ For Herod himself had sent and laid hold of John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; for he had marri ed her.

nkjv@Mark:6:19 @ Therefore Herodias held it against him and want ed to kill him, but she could not;

nkjv@Mark:6:20 @ for Herod fear ed John, knowing that he was a just and holy man, and he protect ed him. And when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.

nkjv@Mark:6:22 @ And when Herodias' daughter herself came in and danc ed, and pleas ed Herod and those who sat with him, the king said to the girl, "Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you."

nkjv@Mark:6:25 @ Imm ediately she came in with haste to the king and ask ed, saying, "I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter."

nkjv@Mark:6:26 @ And the king was exce edingly sorry; yet, because of the oaths and because of those who sat with him, he did not want to refuse her.

nkjv@Mark:6:27 @ Imm ediately the king sent an executioner and command ed his head to be brought. And he went and behead ed him in prison,

nkjv@Mark:6:30 @ Then the apostles gather ed to Jesus and told Him all things, both what they had done and what they had taught.

nkjv@Mark:6:31 @ And He said to them, "Come aside by yourselves to a desert ed place and rest a while." For there were many coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.

nkjv@Mark:6:32 @ So they depart ed to a desert ed place in the boat by themselves.

nkjv@Mark:6:33 @ But the multitudes saw them departing, and many knew Him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arriv ed before them and came together to Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:34 @ And Jesus, when He came out, saw a great multitude and was mov ed with compassion for them, because they were like sheep not having a shepherd. So He began to teach them many things.

nkjv@Mark:6:35 @ When the day was now far spent, His disciples came to Him and said, "This is a desert ed place, and already the hour is late.

nkjv@Mark:6:37 @ But He answer ed and said to them, "You give them something to eat." And they said to Him, "Shall we go and buy two hundr ed denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?"

nkjv@Mark:6:39 @ Then He command ed them to make them all sit down in groups on the green grass.

nkjv@Mark:6:40 @ So they sat down in ranks, in hundr eds and in fifties.

nkjv@Mark:6:41 @ And when He had taken the five loaves and the two fish, He look ed up to heaven, bless ed and broke the loaves, and gave them to His disciples to set before them; and the two fish He divid ed among them all.

nkjv@Mark:6:42 @ So they all ate and were fill ed.

nkjv@Mark:6:45 @ Imm ediately He made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while He sent the multitude away.

nkjv@Mark:6:46 @ And when He had sent them away, He depart ed to the mountain to pray.

nkjv@Mark:6:48 @ Then He saw them straining at rowing, for the wind was against them. Now about the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea, and would have pass ed them by.

nkjv@Mark:6:49 @ And when they saw Him walking on the sea, they suppos ed it was a ghost, and cri ed out;

nkjv@Mark:6:50 @ for they all saw Him and were troubl ed. But imm ediately He talk ed with them and said to them, "Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid."

nkjv@Mark:6:51 @ Then He went up into the boat to them, and the wind ceas ed. And they were greatly amaz ed in themselves beyond measure, and marvel ed.

nkjv@Mark:6:52 @ For they had not understood about the loaves, because their heart was harden ed.

nkjv@Mark:6:53 @ When they had cross ed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret and anchor ed there.

nkjv@Mark:6:54 @ And when they came out of the boat, imm ediately the people recogniz ed Him,

nkjv@Mark:6:55 @ ran through that whole surrounding region, and began to carry about on b eds those who were sick to wherever they heard He was.

nkjv@Mark:6:56 @ Wherever He enter ed, into villages, cities, or the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces, and begg ed Him that they might just touch the hem of His garment. And as many as touch ed Him were made well.

nkjv@Mark:7:2 @ Now when they saw some of His disciples eat bread with defil ed, that is, with unwash ed hands, they found fault.

nkjv@Mark:7:4 @ When they come from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they wash. And there are many other things which they have receiv ed and hold, like the washing of cups, pitchers, copper vessels, and couches.

nkjv@Mark:7:5 @ Then the Pharisees and scribes ask ed Him, "Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwash ed hands?"

nkjv@Mark:7:6 @ He answer ed and said to them, "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written: "This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me.

nkjv@Mark:7:11 @ But you say, "If a man says to his father or mother, "Whatever profit you might have receiv ed from me is Corban"--' (that is, a gift to God),

nkjv@Mark:8:25 @ Then He put His hands on his eyes again and made him look up. And he was restor ed and saw everyone clearly.

nkjv@Mark:8:27 @ Now Jesus and His disciples went out to the towns of Caesarea Philippi; and on the road He ask ed His disciples, saying to them, "Who do men say that I am?"

nkjv@Mark:8:28 @ So they answer ed, "John the Baptist; but some say, Elijah; and others, one of the prophets."

nkjv@Mark:8:29 @ He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answer ed and said to Him, "You are the Christ."

nkjv@Mark:8:30 @ Then He strictly warn ed them that they should tell no one about Him.

nkjv@Mark:8:31 @ And He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be reject ed by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be kill ed, and after three days rise again.

nkjv@Mark:8:33 @ But when He had turn ed around and look ed at His disciples, He rebuk ed Peter, saying, "Get behind Me, Satan! For you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men."

nkjv@Mark:8:34 @ When He had call ed the people to Himself, with His disciples also, He said to them, "Whoever desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.

nkjv@Mark:8:38 @ For whoever is asham ed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man also will be asham ed when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels."

nkjv@Mark:9:1 @ And He said to them, "Assur edly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death till they see the kingdom of God present with power."

nkjv@Mark:9:2 @ Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and l ed them up on a high mountain apart by themselves; and He was transfigur ed before them.

nkjv@Mark:9:3 @ His clothes became shining, exce edingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

nkjv@Mark:9:4 @ And Elijah appear ed to them with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

nkjv@Mark:9:5 @ Then Peter answer ed and said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"--

nkjv@Mark:9:7 @ And a cloud came and overshadow ed them; and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My belov ed Son. Hear Him!"

nkjv@Mark:9:8 @ Suddenly, when they had look ed around, they saw no one anymore, but only Jesus with themselves.

nkjv@Mark:9:9 @ Now as they came down from the mountain, He command ed them that they should tell no one the things they had seen, till the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

nkjv@Mark:9:11 @ And they ask ed Him, saying, "Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"

nkjv@Mark:9:12 @ Then He answer ed and told them, "Inde ed, Elijah is coming first and restores all things. And how is it written concerning the Son of Man, that He must suffer many things and be treat ed with contempt?

nkjv@Mark:9:13 @ But I say to you that Elijah has also come, and they did to him whatever they wish ed, as it is written of him."

nkjv@Mark:9:15 @ Imm ediately, when they saw Him, all the people were greatly amaz ed, and running to Him, greet ed Him.

nkjv@Mark:9:16 @ And He ask ed the scribes, "What are you discussing with them?"

nkjv@Mark:9:17 @ Then one of the crowd answer ed and said, "Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a mute spirit.

nkjv@Mark:9:19 @ He answer ed him and said, "O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to Me."

nkjv@Mark:9:20 @ Then they brought him to Him. And when he saw Him, imm ediately the spirit convuls ed him, and he fell on the ground and wallow ed, foaming at the mouth.

nkjv@Mark:9:21 @ So He ask ed his father, "How long has this been happening to him?" And he said, "From childhood.

nkjv@Mark:9:24 @ Imm ediately the father of the child cri ed out and said with tears, "Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!"

nkjv@Mark:9:25 @ When Jesus saw that the people came running together, He rebuk ed the unclean spirit, saying to it, "Deaf and dumb spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter him no more!"

nkjv@Mark:9:26 @ Then the spirit cri ed out, convuls ed him greatly, and came out of him. And he became as one dead, so that many said, "He is dead."

nkjv@Mark:9:27 @ But Jesus took him by the hand and lift ed him up, and he arose.

nkjv@Mark:9:28 @ And when He had come into the house, His disciples ask ed Him privately, "Why could we not cast it out?"

nkjv@Mark:9:30 @ Then they depart ed from there and pass ed through Galilee, and He did not want anyone to know it.

nkjv@Mark:9:31 @ For He taught His disciples and said to them, "The Son of Man is being betray ed into the hands of men, and they will kill Him. And after He is kill ed, He will rise the third day."

nkjv@Mark:9:33 @ Then He came to Capernaum. And when He was in the house He ask ed them, "What was it you disput ed among yourselves on the road?"

nkjv@Mark:9:34 @ But they kept silent, for on the road they had disput ed among themselves who would be the greatest.

nkjv@Mark:9:35 @ And He sat down, call ed the twelve, and said to them, "If anyone desires to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all."

nkjv@Mark:9:38 @ Now John answer ed Him, saying, "Teacher, we saw someone who does not follow us casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow us."

nkjv@Mark:9:41 @ For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you belong to Christ, assur edly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.

nkjv@Mark:9:43 @ If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maim ed, rather than having two hands, to go to hell, into the fire that shall never be quench ed--

nkjv@Mark:9:44 @ where "Their worm does not die And the fire is not quench ed.'

nkjv@Mark:9:45 @ And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into hell, into the fire that shall never be quench ed--

nkjv@Mark:9:49 @ "For everyone will be season ed with fire, and every sacrifice will be season ed with salt.

nkjv@Mark:10:1 @ Then He arose from there and came to the region of Judea by the other side of the Jordan. And multitudes gather ed to Him again, and as He was accustom ed, He taught them again.

nkjv@Mark:10:2 @ The Pharisees came and ask ed Him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?" testing Him.

nkjv@Mark:10:3 @ And He answer ed and said to them, "What did Moses command you?"

nkjv@Mark:10:4 @ They said, "Moses permitt ed a man to write a certificate of divorce, and to dismiss her."

nkjv@Mark:10:5 @ And Jesus answer ed and said to them, "Because of the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.

nkjv@Mark:10:7 @ "For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be join ed to his wife,

nkjv@Mark:10:9 @ Therefore what God has join ed together, let not man separate."

nkjv@Mark:10:10 @ In the house His disciples also ask ed Him again about the same matter.

nkjv@Mark:10:13 @ Then they brought little children to Him, that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuk ed those who brought them.

nkjv@Mark:10:14 @ But when Jesus saw it, He was greatly displeas ed and said to them, "Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God.

nkjv@Mark:10:15 @ Assur edly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it."

nkjv@Mark:10:16 @ And He took them up in His arms, laid His hands on them, and bless ed them.

nkjv@Mark:10:17 @ Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and ask ed Him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?"

nkjv@Mark:10:20 @ And he answer ed and said to Him, "Teacher, all these things I have kept from my youth."

nkjv@Mark:10:21 @ Then Jesus, looking at him, lov ed him, and said to him, "One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross, and follow Me."

nkjv@Mark:10:23 @ Then Jesus look ed around and said to His disciples, "How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!"

nkjv@Mark:10:24 @ And the disciples were astonish ed at His words. But Jesus answer ed again and said to them, "Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God!

nkjv@Mark:10:25 @ It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a ne edle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Mark:10:26 @ And they were greatly astonish ed, saying among themselves, "Who then can be sav ed?"

nkjv@Mark:10:27 @ But Jesus look ed at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible."

nkjv@Mark:10:28 @ Then Peter began to say to Him, "See, we have left all and follow ed You."

nkjv@Mark:10:29 @ So Jesus answer ed and said, "Assur edly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel's,

nkjv@Mark:10:32 @ Now they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them; and they were amaz ed. And as they follow ed they were afraid. Then He took the twelve aside again and began to tell them the things that would happen to Him:

nkjv@Mark:10:33 @ "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betray ed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death and deliver Him to the Gentiles;

nkjv@Mark:10:35 @ Then James and John, the sons of Zeb edee, came to Him, saying, "Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask."

nkjv@Mark:10:38 @ But Jesus said to them, "You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and be baptiz ed with the baptism that I am baptiz ed with?"

nkjv@Mark:10:39 @ They said to Him, "We are able." So Jesus said to them, "You will inde ed drink the cup that I drink, and with the baptism I am baptiz ed with you will be baptiz ed;

nkjv@Mark:10:40 @ but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it is prepar ed."

nkjv@Mark:10:41 @ And when the ten heard it, they began to be greatly displeas ed with James and John.

nkjv@Mark:10:42 @ But Jesus call ed them to Himself and said to them, "You know that those who are consider ed rulers over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.

nkjv@Mark:10:45 @ For even the Son of Man did not come to be serv ed, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many."

nkjv@Mark:10:48 @ Then many warn ed him to be quiet; but he cri ed out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"

nkjv@Mark:10:49 @ So Jesus stood still and command ed him to be call ed. Then they call ed the blind man, saying to him, "Be of good cheer. Rise, He is calling you."

nkjv@Mark:10:51 @ So Jesus answer ed and said to him, "What do you want Me to do for you?" The blind man said to Him, "Rabboni, that I may receive my sight."

nkjv@Mark:10:52 @ Then Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your faith has made you well." And imm ediately he receiv ed his sight and follow ed Jesus on the road.

nkjv@Mark:11:2 @ and He said to them, "Go into the village opposite you; and as soon as you have enter ed it you will find a colt ti ed, on which no one has sat. Loose it and bring it.

nkjv@Mark:11:3 @ And if anyone says to you, "Why are you doing this?' say, "The Lord has ne ed of it,' and imm ediately he will send it here."

nkjv@Mark:11:4 @ So they went their way, and found the colt ti ed by the door outside on the street, and they loos ed it.

nkjv@Mark:11:6 @ And they spoke to them just as Jesus had command ed. So they let them go.

nkjv@Mark:11:9 @ Then those who went before and those who follow ed cri ed out, saying: "Hosanna! "Bless ed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!'

nkjv@Mark:11:10 @ Bless ed is the kingdom of our father David That comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!"

nkjv@Mark:11:11 @ And Jesus went into Jerusalem and into the temple. So when He had look ed around at all things, as the hour was already late, He went out to Bethany with the twelve.

nkjv@Mark:11:15 @ So they came to Jerusalem. Then Jesus went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturn ed the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves.

nkjv@Mark:11:17 @ Then He taught, saying to them, "Is it not written, "My house shall be call ed a house of prayer for all nations'? But you have made it a "den of thieves."'

nkjv@Mark:11:18 @ And the scribes and chief priests heard it and sought how they might destroy Him; for they fear ed Him, because all the people were astonish ed at His teaching.

nkjv@Mark:11:20 @ Now in the morning, as they pass ed by, they saw the fig tree dri ed up from the roots.

nkjv@Mark:11:21 @ And Peter, remembering, said to Him, "Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You curs ed has wither ed away."

nkjv@Mark:11:22 @ So Jesus answer ed and said to them, "Have faith in God.

nkjv@Mark:11:23 @ For assur edly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, "Be remov ed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.

nkjv@Mark:11:29 @ But Jesus answer ed and said to them, "I also will ask you one question; then answer Me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things:

nkjv@Mark:11:33 @ So they answer ed and said to Jesus, "We do not know." And Jesus answer ed and said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."

nkjv@Mark:12:1 @ Then He began to speak to them in parables: "A man plant ed a vineyard and set a h edge around it, dug a place for the wine vat and built a tower. And he leas ed it to vin edressers and went into a far country.

nkjv@Mark:12:2 @ Now at vintage-time he sent a servant to the vin edressers, that he might receive some of the fruit of the vineyard from the vin edressers.

nkjv@Mark:12:6 @ Therefore still having one son, his belov ed, he also sent him to them last, saying, "They will respect my son.'

nkjv@Mark:12:7 @ But those vin edressers said among themselves, "This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'

nkjv@Mark:12:8 @ So they took him and kill ed him and cast him out of the vineyard.

nkjv@Mark:12:9 @ "Therefore what will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the vin edressers, and give the vineyard to others.

nkjv@Mark:12:10 @ Have you not even read this Scripture: "The stone which the builders reject ed Has become the chief cornerstone.

nkjv@Mark:12:12 @ And they sought to lay hands on Him, but fear ed the multitude, for they knew He had spoken the parable against them. So they left Him and went away.

nkjv@Mark:12:17 @ And Jesus answer ed and said to them, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." And they marvel ed at Him.

nkjv@Mark:12:18 @ Then some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him; and they ask ed Him, saying:

nkjv@Mark:12:21 @ And the second took her, and he di ed; nor did he leave any offspring. And the third likewise.

nkjv@Mark:12:22 @ So the seven had her and left no offspring. Last of all the woman di ed also.

nkjv@Mark:12:24 @ Jesus answer ed and said to them, "Are you not therefore mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures nor the power of God?

nkjv@Mark:12:28 @ Then one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, perceiving that He had answer ed them well, ask ed Him, "Which is the first commandment of all?"

nkjv@Mark:12:29 @ Jesus answer ed him, "The first of all the commandments is: "Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is one.

nkjv@Mark:15:12 @ Pilate answer ed and said to them again, "What then do you want me to do with Him whom you call the King of the Jews?"

nkjv@Mark:15:13 @ So they cri ed out again, "Crucify Him!"

nkjv@Mark:15:14 @ Then Pilate said to them, "Why, what evil has He done?" But they cri ed out all the more, "Crucify Him!"

nkjv@Mark:15:15 @ So Pilate, wanting to gratify the crowd, releas ed Barabbas to them; and he deliver ed Jesus, after he had scourg ed Him, to be crucifi ed.

nkjv@Mark:15:16 @ Then the soldiers l ed Him away into the hall call ed Praetorium, and they call ed together the whole garrison.

nkjv@Mark:15:17 @ And they cloth ed Him with purple; and they twist ed a crown of thorns, put it on His head,

nkjv@Mark:15:19 @ Then they struck Him on the head with a re ed and spat on Him; and bowing the knee, they worship ed Him.

nkjv@Mark:15:20 @ And when they had mock ed Him, they took the purple off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and l ed Him out to crucify Him.

nkjv@Mark:15:21 @ Then they compell ed a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, the father of Alexander and Rufus, as he was coming out of the country and passing by, to bear His cross.

nkjv@Mark:15:22 @ And they brought Him to the place Golgotha, which is translat ed, Place of a Skull.

nkjv@Mark:15:23 @ Then they gave Him wine mingl ed with myrrh to drink, but He did not take it.

nkjv@Mark:15:24 @ And when they crucifi ed Him, they divid ed His garments, casting lots for them to determine what every man should take.

nkjv@Mark:15:25 @ Now it was the third hour, and they crucifi ed Him.

nkjv@Mark:15:27 @ With Him they also crucifi ed two robbers, one on His right and the other on His left.

nkjv@Mark:15:28 @ So the Scripture was fulfill ed which says, "And He was number ed with the transgressors."

nkjv@Mark:15:29 @ And those who pass ed by blasphem ed Him, wagging their heads and saying, "Aha! You who destroy the temple and build it in three days,

nkjv@Mark:15:31 @ Likewise the chief priests also, mocking among themselves with the scribes, said, "He sav ed others; Himself He cannot save.

nkjv@Mark:15:32 @ Let the Christ, the King of Israel, descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe." Even those who were crucifi ed with Him revil ed Him.

nkjv@Mark:15:34 @ And at the ninth hour Jesus cri ed out with a loud voice, saying, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" which is translat ed, "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?"

nkjv@Mark:15:36 @ Then someone ran and fill ed a sponge full of sour wine, put it on a re ed, and offer ed it to Him to drink, saying, "Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to take Him down."

nkjv@Mark:15:37 @ And Jesus cri ed out with a loud voice, and breath ed His last.

nkjv@Mark:15:39 @ So when the centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that He cri ed out like this and breath ed His last, he said, "Truly this Man was the Son of God!"

nkjv@Mark:15:41 @ who also follow ed Him and minister ed to Him when He was in Galilee, and many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Mark:15:43 @ Joseph of Arimathea, a prominent council member, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God, coming and taking courage, went in to Pilate and ask ed for the body of Jesus.

nkjv@Mark:15:44 @ Pilate marvel ed that He was already dead; and summoning the centurion, he ask ed him if He had been dead for some time.

nkjv@Mark:15:45 @ So when he found out from the centurion, he grant ed the body to Joseph.

nkjv@Mark:15:46 @ Then he bought fine linen, took Him down, and wrapp ed Him in the linen. And he laid Him in a tomb which had been hewn out of the rock, and roll ed a stone against the door of the tomb.

nkjv@Mark:15:47 @ And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses observ ed where He was laid.

nkjv@Mark:16:4 @ But when they look ed up, they saw that the stone had been roll ed away--for it was very large.

nkjv@Mark:16:5 @ And entering the tomb, they saw a young man cloth ed in a long white robe sitting on the right side; and they were alarm ed.

nkjv@Mark:16:6 @ But he said to them, "Do not be alarm ed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucifi ed. He is risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him.

nkjv@Mark:16:8 @ So they went out quickly and fl ed from the tomb, for they trembl ed and were amaz ed. And they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.

nkjv@Mark:16:9 @ Now when He rose early on the first day of the week, He appear ed first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven demons.

nkjv@Mark:16:10 @ She went and told those who had been with Him, as they mourn ed and wept.

nkjv@Mark:16:12 @ After that, He appear ed in another form to two of them as they walk ed and went into the country.

nkjv@Mark:16:14 @ Later He appear ed to the eleven as they sat at the table; and He rebuk ed their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen.

nkjv@Mark:16:16 @ He who believes and is baptiz ed will be sav ed; but he who does not believe will be condemn ed.

nkjv@Mark:16:19 @ So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was receiv ed up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.

nkjv@Mark:16:20 @ And they went out and preach ed everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.

nkjv@Luke:1:1 @ Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to set in order a narrative of those things which have been fulfill ed among us,

nkjv@Luke:1:2 @ just as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word deliver ed them to us,

nkjv@Luke:1:3 @ it seem ed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write to you an orderly account, most excellent Theophilus,

nkjv@Luke:1:4 @ that you may know the certainty of those things in which you were instruct ed.

nkjv@Luke:1:5 @ There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest nam ed Zacharias, of the division of Abijah. His wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

nkjv@Luke:1:7 @ But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both well advanc ed in years.

nkjv@Luke:1:11 @ Then an angel of the Lord appear ed to him, standing on the right side of the altar of incense.

nkjv@Luke:1:12 @ And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubl ed, and fear fell upon him.

nkjv@Luke:1:15 @ For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink. He will also be fill ed with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.

nkjv@Luke:1:17 @ He will also go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, "to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,' and the disob edient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepar ed for the Lord."

nkjv@Luke:1:18 @ And Zacharias said to the angel, "How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanc ed in years."

nkjv@Luke:1:19 @ And the angel answer ed and said to him, "I am Gabriel, who stands in the presence of God, and was sent to speak to you and bring you these glad tidings.

nkjv@Luke:1:20 @ But behold, you will be mute and not able to speak until the day these things take place, because you did not believe my words which will be fulfill ed in their own time."

nkjv@Luke:1:21 @ And the people wait ed for Zacharias, and marvel ed that he linger ed so long in the temple.

nkjv@Luke:1:22 @ But when he came out, he could not speak to them; and they perceiv ed that he had seen a vision in the temple, for he beckon ed to them and remain ed speechless.

nkjv@Luke:1:23 @ So it was, as soon as the days of his service were complet ed, that he depart ed to his own house.

nkjv@Luke:1:24 @ Now after those days his wife Elizabeth conceiv ed; and she hid herself five months, saying,

nkjv@Luke:1:25 @ "Thus the Lord has dealt with me, in the days when He look ed on me, to take away my reproach among people."

nkjv@Luke:1:26 @ Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee nam ed Nazareth,

nkjv@Luke:1:27 @ to a virgin betroth ed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin's name was Mary.

nkjv@Luke:1:28 @ And having come in, the angel said to her, "Rejoice, highly favor ed one, the Lord is with you; bless ed are you among women!"

nkjv@Luke:1:29 @ But when she saw him, she was troubl ed at his saying, and consider ed what manner of greeting this was.

nkjv@Luke:1:32 @ He will be great, and will be call ed the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David.

nkjv@Luke:1:35 @ And the angel answer ed and said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be call ed the Son of God.

nkjv@Luke:1:36 @ Now inde ed, Elizabeth your relative has also conceiv ed a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for her who was call ed barren.

nkjv@Luke:1:38 @ Then Mary said, "Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word." And the angel depart ed from her.

nkjv@Luke:1:40 @ and enter ed the house of Zacharias and greet ed Elizabeth.

nkjv@Luke:1:41 @ And it happen ed, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, that the babe leap ed in her womb; and Elizabeth was fill ed with the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@Luke:1:42 @ Then she spoke out with a loud voice and said, "Bless ed are you among women, and bless ed is the fruit of your womb!

nkjv@Luke:1:43 @ But why is this grant ed to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

nkjv@Luke:1:44 @ For inde ed, as soon as the voice of your greeting sound ed in my ears, the babe leap ed in my womb for joy.

nkjv@Luke:1:45 @ Bless ed is she who believ ed, for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord."

nkjv@Luke:1:47 @ And my spirit has rejoic ed in God my Savior.

nkjv@Luke:1:48 @ For He has regard ed the lowly state of His maidservant; For behold, henceforth all generations will call me bless ed.

nkjv@Luke:1:51 @ He has shown strength with His arm; He has scatter ed the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

nkjv@Luke:1:52 @ He has put down the mighty from their thrones, And exalt ed the lowly.

nkjv@Luke:1:53 @ He has fill ed the hungry with good things, And the rich He has sent away empty.

nkjv@Luke:1:54 @ He has help ed His servant Israel, In remembrance of His mercy,

nkjv@Luke:1:55 @ As He spoke to our fathers, To Abraham and to his se ed forever."

nkjv@Luke:1:56 @ And Mary remain ed with her about three months, and return ed to her house.

nkjv@Luke:1:57 @ Now Elizabeth's full time came for her to be deliver ed, and she brought forth a son.

nkjv@Luke:1:58 @ When her neighbors and relatives heard how the Lord had shown great mercy to her, they rejoic ed with her.

nkjv@Luke:1:59 @ So it was, on the eighth day, that they came to circumcise the child; and they would have call ed him by the name of his father, Zacharias.

nkjv@Luke:1:60 @ His mother answer ed and said, "No; he shall be call ed John."

nkjv@Luke:1:61 @ But they said to her, "There is no one among your relatives who is call ed by this name."

nkjv@Luke:1:62 @ So they made signs to his father--what he would have him call ed.

nkjv@Luke:1:63 @ And he ask ed for a writing tablet, and wrote, saying, "His name is John." So they all marvel ed.

nkjv@Luke:1:64 @ Imm ediately his mouth was open ed and his tongue loos ed, and he spoke, praising God.

nkjv@Luke:1:65 @ Then fear came on all who dwelt around them; and all these sayings were discuss ed throughout all the hill country of Judea.

nkjv@Luke:1:67 @ Now his father Zacharias was fill ed with the Holy Spirit, and prophesi ed, saying:

nkjv@Luke:1:68 @ "Bless ed is the Lord God of Israel, For He has visit ed and r edeem ed His people,

nkjv@Luke:1:72 @ To perform the mercy promis ed to our fathers And to remember His holy covenant,

nkjv@Luke:2:1 @ And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be register ed.

nkjv@Luke:2:3 @ So all went to be register ed, everyone to his own city.

nkjv@Luke:2:4 @ Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is call ed Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David,

nkjv@Luke:2:5 @ to be register ed with Mary, his betroth ed wife, who was with child.

nkjv@Luke:2:6 @ So it was, that while they were there, the days were complet ed for her to be deliver ed.

nkjv@Luke:2:7 @ And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapp ed Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

nkjv@Luke:2:12 @ And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapp ed in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger."

nkjv@Luke:2:18 @ And all those who heard it marvel ed at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

nkjv@Luke:2:19 @ But Mary kept all these things and ponder ed them in her heart.

nkjv@Luke:2:20 @ Then the shepherds return ed, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them.

nkjv@Luke:2:21 @ And when eight days were complet ed for the circumcision of the Child, His name was call ed JESUS, the name given by the angel before He was conceiv ed in the womb.

nkjv@Luke:2:22 @ Now when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were complet ed, they brought Him to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord

nkjv@Luke:2:23 @ (as it is written in the law of the Lord, "Every male who opens the womb shall be call ed holy to the LORD"),

nkjv@Luke:2:24 @ and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the law of the Lord, "A pair of turtl edoves or two young pigeons."

nkjv@Luke:2:26 @ And it had been reveal ed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

nkjv@Luke:2:28 @ he took Him up in his arms and bless ed God and said:

nkjv@Luke:2:31 @ Which You have prepar ed before the face of all peoples,

nkjv@Luke:2:33 @ And Joseph and His mother marvel ed at those things which were spoken of Him.

nkjv@Luke:2:34 @ Then Simeon bless ed them, and said to Mary His mother, "Behold, this Child is destin ed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which will be spoken against

nkjv@Luke:2:35 @ (yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul also), that the thoughts of many hearts may be reveal ed."

nkjv@Luke:2:36 @ Now there was one, Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was of a great age, and had liv ed with a husband seven years from her virginity;

nkjv@Luke:2:37 @ and this woman was a widow of about eighty-four years, who did not depart from the temple, but serv ed God with fastings and prayers night and day.

nkjv@Luke:2:38 @ And coming in that instant she gave thanks to the Lord, and spoke of Him to all those who look ed for r edemption in Jerusalem.

nkjv@Luke:2:39 @ So when they had perform ed all things according to the law of the Lord, they return ed to Galilee, to their own city, Nazareth.

nkjv@Luke:2:40 @ And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, fill ed with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him.

nkjv@Luke:2:43 @ When they had finish ed the days, as they return ed, the Boy Jesus linger ed behind in Jerusalem. And Joseph and His mother did not know it;

nkjv@Luke:2:45 @ So when they did not find Him, they return ed to Jerusalem, seeking Him.

nkjv@Luke:2:47 @ And all who heard Him were astonish ed at His understanding and answers.

nkjv@Luke:2:48 @ So when they saw Him, they were amaz ed; and His mother said to Him, "Son, why have You done this to us? Look, Your father and I have sought You anxiously."

nkjv@Luke:2:52 @ And Jesus increas ed in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.

nkjv@Luke:3:5 @ Every valley shall be fill ed And every mountain and hill brought low; The crook ed places shall be made straight And the rough ways smooth;

nkjv@Luke:3:7 @ Then he said to the multitudes that came out to be baptiz ed by him, "Brood of vipers! Who warn ed you to flee from the wrath to come?

nkjv@Luke:3:10 @ So the people ask ed him, saying, "What shall we do then?"

nkjv@Luke:3:11 @ He answer ed and said to them, "He who has two tunics, let him give to him who has none; and he who has food, let him do likewise."

nkjv@Luke:3:12 @ Then tax collectors also came to be baptiz ed, and said to him, "Teacher, what shall we do?"

nkjv@Luke:3:13 @ And he said to them, "Collect no more than what is appoint ed for you."

nkjv@Luke:3:14 @ Likewise the soldiers ask ed him, saying, "And what shall we do?" So he said to them, "Do not intimidate anyone or accuse falsely, and be content with your wages."

nkjv@Luke:3:15 @ Now as the people were in expectation, and all reason ed in their hearts about John, whether he was the Christ or not,

nkjv@Luke:3:16 @ John answer ed, saying to all, "I inde ed baptize you with water; but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

nkjv@Luke:3:18 @ And with many other exhortations he preach ed to the people.

nkjv@Luke:3:19 @ But Herod the tetrarch, being rebuk ed by him concerning Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,

nkjv@Luke:3:21 @ When all the people were baptiz ed, it came to pass that Jesus also was baptiz ed; and while He pray ed, the heaven was open ed.

nkjv@Luke:3:23 @ Now Jesus Himself began His ministry at about thirty years of age, being (as was suppos ed) the son of Joseph, the son of Heli,

nkjv@Luke:4:4 @ But Jesus answer ed him, saying, "It is written, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God."'

nkjv@Luke:4:5 @ Then the devil, taking Him up on a high mountain, show ed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

nkjv@Luke:4:6 @ And the devil said to Him, "All this authority I will give You, and their glory; for this has been deliver ed to me, and I give it to whomever I wish.

nkjv@Luke:4:13 @ Now when the devil had end ed every temptation, he depart ed from Him until an opportune time.

nkjv@Luke:4:14 @ Then Jesus return ed in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and news of Him went out through all the surrounding region.

nkjv@Luke:4:15 @ And He taught in their synagogues, being glorifi ed by all.

nkjv@Luke:4:17 @ And He was hand ed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when He had open ed the book, He found the place where it was written:

nkjv@Luke:4:21 @ And He began to say to them, "Today this Scripture is fulfill ed in your hearing."

nkjv@Luke:4:22 @ So all bore witness to Him, and marvel ed at the gracious words which proce ed ed out of His mouth. And they said, "Is this not Joseph's son?"

nkjv@Luke:4:24 @ Then He said, "Assur edly, I say to you, no prophet is accept ed in his own country.

nkjv@Luke:4:27 @ And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleans ed except Naaman the Syrian."

nkjv@Luke:4:28 @ So all those in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were fill ed with wrath,

nkjv@Luke:4:29 @ and rose up and thrust Him out of the city; and they l ed Him to the brow of the hill on which their city was built, that they might throw Him down over the cliff.

nkjv@Luke:4:32 @ And they were astonish ed at His teaching, for His word was with authority.

nkjv@Luke:4:33 @ Now in the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon. And he cri ed out with a loud voice,

nkjv@Luke:4:35 @ But Jesus rebuk ed him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!" And when the demon had thrown him in their midst, it came out of him and did not hurt him.

nkjv@Luke:4:36 @ Then they were all amaz ed and spoke among themselves, saying, "What a word this is! For with authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out."

nkjv@Luke:4:38 @ Now He arose from the synagogue and enter ed Simon's house. But Simon's wife's mother was sick with a high fever, and they made request of Him concerning her.

nkjv@Luke:4:39 @ So He stood over her and rebuk ed the fever, and it left her. And imm ediately she arose and serv ed them.

nkjv@Luke:4:40 @ When the sun was setting, all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to Him; and He laid His hands on every one of them and heal ed them.

nkjv@Luke:4:42 @ Now when it was day, He depart ed and went into a desert ed place. And the crowd sought Him and came to Him, and tri ed to keep Him from leaving them;

nkjv@Luke:5:1 @ So it was, as the multitude press ed about Him to hear the word of God, that He stood by the Lake of Gennesaret,

nkjv@Luke:5:3 @ Then He got into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and ask ed him to put out a little from the land. And He sat down and taught the multitudes from the boat.

nkjv@Luke:5:4 @ When He had stopp ed speaking, He said to Simon, "Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch."

nkjv@Luke:5:5 @ But Simon answer ed and said to Him, "Master, we have toil ed all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net."

nkjv@Luke:5:7 @ So they signal ed to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and fill ed both the boats, so that they began to sink.

nkjv@Luke:5:9 @ For he and all who were with him were astonish ed at the catch of fish which they had taken;

nkjv@Luke:5:10 @ and so also were James and John, the sons of Zeb edee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men."

nkjv@Luke:5:11 @ So when they had brought their boats to land, they forsook all and follow ed Him.

nkjv@Luke:5:12 @ And it happen ed when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and implor ed Him, saying, "Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean."

nkjv@Luke:5:13 @ Then He put out His hand and touch ed him, saying, "I am willing; be cleans ed." Imm ediately the leprosy left him.

nkjv@Luke:5:15 @ However, the report went around concerning Him all the more; and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be heal ed by Him of their infirmities.

nkjv@Luke:5:16 @ So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and pray ed.

nkjv@Luke:5:17 @ Now it happen ed on a certain day, as He was teaching, that there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come out of every town of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present to heal them.

nkjv@Luke:5:18 @ Then behold, men brought on a b ed a man who was paralyz ed, whom they sought to bring in and lay before Him.

nkjv@Luke:5:25 @ Imm ediately he rose up before them, took up what he had been lying on, and depart ed to his own house, glorifying God.

nkjv@Luke:5:26 @ And they were all amaz ed, and they glorifi ed God and were fill ed with fear, saying, "We have seen strange things today!"

nkjv@Luke:5:27 @ After these things He went out and saw a tax collector nam ed Levi, sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me."

nkjv@Luke:5:28 @ So he left all, rose up, and follow ed Him.

nkjv@Luke:5:30 @ And their scribes and the Pharisees complain ed against His disciples, saying, "Why do You eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?"

nkjv@Luke:6:6 @ Now it happen ed on another Sabbath, also, that He enter ed the synagogue and taught. And a man was there whose right hand was wither ed.

nkjv@Luke:6:7 @ So the scribes and Pharisees watch ed Him closely, whether He would heal on the Sabbath, that they might find an accusation against Him.

nkjv@Luke:6:8 @ But He knew their thoughts, and said to the man who had the wither ed hand, "Arise and stand here." And he arose and stood.

nkjv@Luke:6:10 @ And when He had look ed around at them all, He said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." And he did so, and his hand was restor ed as whole as the other.

nkjv@Luke:6:11 @ But they were fill ed with rage, and discuss ed with one another what they might do to Jesus.

nkjv@Luke:6:13 @ And when it was day, He call ed His disciples to Himself; and from them He chose twelve whom He also nam ed apostles:

nkjv@Luke:6:14 @ Simon, whom He also nam ed Peter, and Andrew his brother; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew;

nkjv@Luke:6:15 @ Matthew and Thomas; James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon call ed the Zealot;

nkjv@Luke:6:17 @ And He came down with them and stood on a level place with a crowd of His disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and from the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear Him and be heal ed of their diseases,

nkjv@Luke:6:18 @ as well as those who were torment ed with unclean spirits. And they were heal ed.

nkjv@Luke:6:19 @ And the whole multitude sought to touch Him, for power went out from Him and heal ed them all.

nkjv@Luke:6:20 @ Then He lift ed up His eyes toward His disciples, and said: "Bless ed are you poor, For yours is the kingdom of God.

nkjv@Luke:6:22 @ Bless ed are you when men hate you, And when they exclude you, And revile you, and cast out your name as evil, For the Son of Man's sake.

nkjv@Luke:6:23 @ Rejoice in that day and leap for joy! For inde ed your reward is great in heaven, For in like manner their fathers did to the prophets.

nkjv@Luke:6:40 @ A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly train ed will be like his teacher.

nkjv@Luke:6:48 @ He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was found ed on the rock.

nkjv@Luke:6:49 @ But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and imm ediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great."

nkjv@Luke:7:1 @ Now when He conclud ed all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He enter ed Capernaum.

nkjv@Luke:7:4 @ And when they came to Jesus, they begg ed Him earnestly, saying that the one for whom He should do this was deserving,

nkjv@Luke:8:6 @ Some fell on rock; and as soon as it sprang up, it wither ed away because it lack ed moisture.

nkjv@Luke:8:7 @ And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up with it and chok ed it.

nkjv@Luke:8:8 @ But others fell on good ground, sprang up, and yield ed a crop a hundr edfold." When He had said these things He cri ed, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear!"

nkjv@Luke:8:9 @ Then His disciples ask ed Him, saying, "What does this parable mean?"

nkjv@Luke:8:11 @ "Now the parable is this: The se ed is the word of God.

nkjv@Luke:8:12 @ Those by the wayside are the ones who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be sav ed.

nkjv@Luke:8:14 @ Now the ones that fell among thorns are those who, when they have heard, go out and are chok ed with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity.

nkjv@Luke:8:16 @ "No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a vessel or puts it under a b ed, but sets it on a lampstand, that those who enter may see the light.

nkjv@Luke:8:17 @ For nothing is secret that will not be reveal ed, nor anything hidden that will not be known and come to light.

nkjv@Luke:8:18 @ Therefore take he ed how you hear. For whoever has, to him more will be given; and whoever does not have, even what he seems to have will be taken from him."

nkjv@Luke:8:21 @ But He answer ed and said to them, "My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it."

nkjv@Luke:8:22 @ Now it happen ed, on a certain day, that He got into a boat with His disciples. And He said to them, "Let us cross over to the other side of the lake." And they launch ed out.

nkjv@Luke:8:23 @ But as they sail ed He fell asleep. And a windstorm came down on the lake, and they were filling with water, and were in jeopardy.

nkjv@Luke:8:24 @ And they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, "Master, Master, we are perishing!" Then He arose and rebuk ed the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceas ed, and there was a calm.

nkjv@Luke:8:25 @ But He said to them, "Where is your faith?" And they were afraid, and marvel ed, saying to one another, "Who can this be? For He commands even the winds and water, and they obey Him!"

nkjv@Luke:8:26 @ Then they sail ed to the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.

nkjv@Luke:8:27 @ And when He stepp ed out on the land, there met Him a certain man from the city who had demons for a long time. And he wore no clothes, nor did he live in a house but in the tombs.

nkjv@Luke:8:28 @ When he saw Jesus, he cri ed out, fell down before Him, and with a loud voice said, "What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You, do not torment me!"

nkjv@Luke:8:29 @ For He had command ed the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For it had often seiz ed him, and he was kept under guard, bound with chains and shackles; and he broke the bonds and was driven by the demon into the wilderness.

nkjv@Luke:8:30 @ Jesus ask ed him, saying, "What is your name?" And he said, "Legion," because many demons had enter ed him.

nkjv@Luke:8:31 @ And they begg ed Him that He would not command them to go out into the abyss.

nkjv@Luke:8:32 @ Now a herd of many swine was fe eding there on the mountain. So they begg ed Him that He would permit them to enter them. And He permitt ed them.

nkjv@Luke:8:33 @ Then the demons went out of the man and enter ed the swine, and the herd ran violently down the steep place into the lake and drown ed.

nkjv@Luke:8:34 @ When those who f ed them saw what had happen ed, they fl ed and told it in the city and in the country.

nkjv@Luke:8:35 @ Then they went out to see what had happen ed, and came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had depart ed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, cloth ed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

nkjv@Luke:8:36 @ They also who had seen it told them by what means he who had been demon-possess ed was heal ed.

nkjv@Luke:8:37 @ Then the whole multitude of the surrounding region of the Gadarenes ask ed Him to depart from them, for they were seiz ed with great fear. And He got into the boat and return ed.

nkjv@Luke:8:38 @ Now the man from whom the demons had depart ed begg ed Him that he might be with Him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,

nkjv@Luke:8:39 @ "Return to your own house, and tell what great things God has done for you." And he went his way and proclaim ed throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.

nkjv@Luke:8:40 @ So it was, when Jesus return ed, that the multitude welcom ed Him, for they were all waiting for Him.

nkjv@Luke:8:41 @ And behold, there came a man nam ed Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at Jesus' feet and begg ed Him to come to his house,

nkjv@Luke:8:42 @ for he had an only daughter about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as He went, the multitudes throng ed Him.

nkjv@Luke:8:43 @ Now a woman, having a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her livelihood on physicians and could not be heal ed by any,

nkjv@Luke:8:44 @ came from behind and touch ed the border of His garment. And imm ediately her flow of blood stopp ed.

nkjv@Luke:8:45 @ And Jesus said, "Who touch ed Me?" When all deni ed it, Peter and those with him said, "Master, the multitudes throng and press You, and You say, "Who touch ed Me?"'

nkjv@Luke:8:46 @ But Jesus said, "Somebody touch ed Me, for I perceiv ed power going out from Me."

nkjv@Luke:8:47 @ Now when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before Him, she declar ed to Him in the presence of all the people the reason she had touch ed Him and how she was heal ed imm ediately.

nkjv@Luke:8:50 @ But when Jesus heard it, He answer ed him, saying, "Do not be afraid; only believe, and she will be made well."

nkjv@Luke:8:51 @ When He came into the house, He permitt ed no one to go in except Peter, James, and John, and the father and mother of the girl.

nkjv@Luke:8:52 @ Now all wept and mourn ed for her; but He said, "Do not weep; she is not dead, but sleeping."

nkjv@Luke:8:53 @ And they ridicul ed Him, knowing that she was dead.

nkjv@Luke:8:54 @ But He put them all outside, took her by the hand and call ed, saying, "Little girl, arise."

nkjv@Luke:8:55 @ Then her spirit return ed, and she arose imm ediately. And He command ed that she be given something to eat.

nkjv@Luke:8:56 @ And her parents were astonish ed, but He charg ed them to tell no one what had happen ed.

nkjv@Luke:9:1 @ Then He call ed His twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.

nkjv@Luke:9:6 @ So they depart ed and went through the towns, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere.

nkjv@Luke:9:7 @ Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by Him; and he was perplex ed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,

nkjv@Luke:9:8 @ and by some that Elijah had appear ed, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.

nkjv@Luke:9:9 @ Herod said, "John I have behead ed, but who is this of whom I hear such things?" So he sought to see Him.

nkjv@Luke:9:10 @ And the apostles, when they had return ed, told Him all that they had done. Then He took them and went aside privately into a desert ed place belonging to the city call ed Bethsaida.

nkjv@Luke:9:11 @ But when the multitudes knew it, they follow ed Him; and He receiv ed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and heal ed those who had ne ed of healing.

nkjv@Luke:9:12 @ When the day began to wear away, the twelve came and said to Him, "Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding towns and country, and lodge and get provisions; for we are in a desert ed place here."

nkjv@Luke:9:16 @ Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He bless ed and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude.

nkjv@Luke:9:17 @ So they all ate and were fill ed, and twelve baskets of the leftover fragments were taken up by them.

nkjv@Luke:9:18 @ And it happen ed, as He was alone praying, that His disciples join ed Him, and He ask ed them, saying, "Who do the crowds say that I am?"

nkjv@Luke:9:19 @ So they answer ed and said, "John the Baptist, but some say Elijah; and others say that one of the old prophets has risen again."

nkjv@Luke:9:20 @ He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answer ed and said, "The Christ of God."

nkjv@Luke:9:21 @ And He strictly warn ed and command ed them to tell this to no one,

nkjv@Luke:9:22 @ saying, "The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be reject ed by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be kill ed, and be rais ed the third day."

nkjv@Luke:9:25 @ For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and is himself destroy ed or lost?

nkjv@Luke:9:26 @ For whoever is asham ed of Me and My words, of him the Son of Man will be asham ed when He comes in His own glory, and in His Father's, and of the holy angels.

nkjv@Luke:9:29 @ As He pray ed, the appearance of His face was alter ed, and His robe became white and glistening.

nkjv@Luke:9:30 @ And behold, two men talk ed with Him, who were Moses and Elijah,

nkjv@Luke:9:31 @ who appear ed in glory and spoke of His decease which He was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

nkjv@Luke:9:33 @ Then it happen ed, as they were parting from Him, that Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"--not knowing what he said.

nkjv@Luke:9:34 @ While he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadow ed them; and they were fearful as they enter ed the cloud.

nkjv@Luke:9:35 @ And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My belov ed Son. Hear Him!"

nkjv@Luke:9:36 @ When the voice had ceas ed, Jesus was found alone. But they kept quiet, and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen.

nkjv@Luke:9:37 @ Now it happen ed on the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a great multitude met Him.

nkjv@Luke:9:38 @ Suddenly a man from the multitude cri ed out, saying, "Teacher, I implore You, look on my son, for he is my only child.

nkjv@Luke:9:40 @ So I implor ed Your disciples to cast it out, but they could not."

nkjv@Luke:9:41 @ Then Jesus answer ed and said, "O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here."

nkjv@Luke:9:42 @ And as he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convuls ed him. Then Jesus rebuk ed the unclean spirit, heal ed the child, and gave him back to his father.

nkjv@Luke:9:43 @ And they were all amaz ed at the majesty of God. But while everyone marvel ed at all the things which Jesus did, He said to His disciples,

nkjv@Luke:9:44 @ "Let these words sink down into your ears, for the Son of Man is about to be betray ed into the hands of men."

nkjv@Luke:9:49 @ Now John answer ed and said, "Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow with us."

nkjv@Luke:9:51 @ Now it came to pass, when the time had come for Him to be receiv ed up, that He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem,

nkjv@Luke:9:52 @ and sent messengers before His face. And as they went, they enter ed a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for Him.

nkjv@Luke:9:55 @ But He turn ed and rebuk ed them, and said, "You do not know what manner of spirit you are of.

nkjv@Luke:10:1 @ After these things the Lord appoint ed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go.

nkjv@Luke:10:13 @ "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repent ed long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

nkjv@Luke:10:30 @ Then Jesus answer ed and said: "A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, who stripp ed him of his clothing, wound ed him, and depart ed, leaving him half dead.

nkjv@Luke:20:10 @ Now at vintage-time he sent a servant to the vin edressers, that they might give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the vin edressers beat him and sent him away empty-hand ed.

nkjv@Luke:20:11 @ Again he sent another servant; and they beat him also, treat ed him shamefully, and sent him away empty-hand ed.

nkjv@Luke:20:12 @ And again he sent a third; and they wound ed him also and cast him out.

nkjv@Luke:20:13 @ "Then the owner of the vineyard said, "What shall I do? I will send my belov ed son. Probably they will respect him when they see him.'

nkjv@Luke:20:14 @ But when the vin edressers saw him, they reason ed among themselves, saying, "This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'

nkjv@Luke:20:15 @ So they cast him out of the vineyard and kill ed him. Therefore what will the owner of the vineyard do to them?

nkjv@Luke:20:16 @ He will come and destroy those vin edressers and give the vineyard to others." And when they heard it they said, "Certainly not!"

nkjv@Luke:20:17 @ Then He look ed at them and said, "What then is this that is written: "The stone which the builders reject ed Has become the chief cornerstone'?

nkjv@Luke:20:19 @ And the chief priests and the scribes that very hour sought to lay hands on Him, but they fear ed the people --for they knew He had spoken this parable against them.

nkjv@Luke:20:20 @ So they watch ed Him, and sent spies who pretend ed to be righteous, that they might seize on His words, in order to deliver Him to the power and the authority of the governor.

nkjv@Luke:20:21 @ Then they ask ed Him, saying, "Teacher, we know that You say and teach rightly, and You do not show personal favoritism, but teach the way of God in truth:

nkjv@Luke:20:23 @ But He perceiv ed their craftiness, and said to them, "Why do you test Me?

nkjv@Luke:20:24 @ Show Me a denarius. Whose image and inscription does it have?" They answer ed and said, "Caesar's."

nkjv@Luke:20:26 @ But they could not catch Him in His words in the presence of the people. And they marvel ed at His answer and kept silent.

nkjv@Luke:20:27 @ Then some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, came to Him and ask ed Him,

nkjv@Luke:20:29 @ Now there were seven brothers. And the first took a wife, and di ed without children.

nkjv@Luke:20:30 @ And the second took her as wife, and he di ed childless.

nkjv@Luke:20:31 @ Then the third took her, and in like manner the seven also; and they left no children, and di ed.

nkjv@Luke:20:32 @ Last of all the woman di ed also.

nkjv@Luke:20:34 @ Jesus answer ed and said to them, "The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage.

nkjv@Luke:20:35 @ But those who are count ed worthy to attain that age, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage;

nkjv@Luke:20:37 @ But even Moses show ed in the burning bush passage that the dead are rais ed, when he call ed the Lord "the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.'

nkjv@Luke:20:39 @ Then some of the scribes answer ed and said, "Teacher, You have spoken well."

nkjv@Luke:20:40 @ But after that they dar ed not question Him anymore.

nkjv@Luke:21:1 @ And He look ed up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury,

nkjv@Luke:21:5 @ Then, as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorn ed with beautiful stones and donations, He said,

nkjv@Luke:21:7 @ So they ask ed Him, saying, "Teacher, but when will these things be? And what sign will there be when these things are about to take place?"

nkjv@Luke:21:8 @ And He said: "Take he ed that you not be deceiv ed. For many will come in My name, saying, "I am He,' and, "The time has drawn near.' Therefore do not go after them.

nkjv@Luke:21:9 @ But when you hear of wars and commotions, do not be terrifi ed; for these things must come to pass first, but the end will not come imm ediately."

nkjv@Luke:21:14 @ Therefore settle it in your hearts not to m editate beforehand on what you will answer;

nkjv@Luke:21:16 @ You will be betray ed even by parents and brothers, relatives and friends; and they will put some of you to death.

nkjv@Luke:21:17 @ And you will be hat ed by all for My name's sake.

nkjv@Luke:21:20 @ "But when you see Jerusalem surround ed by armies, then know that its desolation is near.

nkjv@Luke:21:22 @ For these are the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfill ed.

nkjv@Luke:21:24 @ And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be l ed away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampl ed by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfill ed.

nkjv@Luke:21:28 @ Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your r edemption draws near."

nkjv@Luke:21:32 @ Assur edly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all things take place.

nkjv@Luke:21:34 @ "But take he ed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weigh ed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpect edly.

nkjv@Luke:21:36 @ Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be count ed worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man."

nkjv@Luke:21:37 @ And in the daytime He was teaching in the temple, but at night He went out and stay ed on the mountain call ed Olivet.

nkjv@Luke:22:1 @ Now the Feast of Unleaven ed Bread drew near, which is call ed Passover.

nkjv@Luke:22:2 @ And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might kill Him, for they fear ed the people.

nkjv@Luke:22:3 @ Then Satan enter ed Judas, surnam ed Iscariot, who was number ed among the twelve.

nkjv@Luke:22:4 @ So he went his way and conferr ed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray Him to them.

nkjv@Luke:22:5 @ And they were glad, and agre ed to give him money.

nkjv@Luke:22:6 @ So he promis ed and sought opportunity to betray Him to them in the absence of the multitude.

nkjv@Luke:22:7 @ Then came the Day of Unleaven ed Bread, when the Passover must be kill ed.

nkjv@Luke:22:10 @ And He said to them, "Behold, when you have enter ed the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house which he enters.

nkjv@Luke:22:12 @ Then he will show you a large, furnish ed upper room; there make ready."

nkjv@Luke:22:13 @ So they went and found it just as He had said to them, and they prepar ed the Passover.

nkjv@Luke:22:15 @ Then He said to them, "With fervent desire I have desir ed to eat this Passover with you before I suffer;

nkjv@Luke:22:16 @ for I say to you, I will no longer eat of it until it is fulfill ed in the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Luke:22:20 @ Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is sh ed for you.

nkjv@Luke:22:22 @ And truly the Son of Man goes as it has been determin ed, but woe to that man by whom He is betray ed!"

nkjv@Luke:22:24 @ Now there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be consider ed the greatest.

nkjv@Luke:22:25 @ And He said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are call ed "benefactors.'

nkjv@Luke:22:28 @ "But you are those who have continu ed with Me in My trials.

nkjv@Luke:22:29 @ And I bestow upon you a kingdom, just as My Father bestow ed one upon Me,

nkjv@Luke:22:31 @ And the Lord said, "Simon, Simon! Inde ed, Satan has ask ed for you, that he may sift you as wheat.

nkjv@Luke:22:32 @ But I have pray ed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have return ed to Me, strengthen your brethren."

nkjv@Luke:22:37 @ For I say to you that this which is written must still be accomplish ed in Me: "And He was number ed with the transgressors.' For the things concerning Me have an end."

nkjv@Luke:22:39 @ Coming out, He went to the Mount of Olives, as He was accustom ed, and His disciples also follow ed Him.

nkjv@Luke:22:41 @ And He was withdrawn from them about a stone's throw, and He knelt down and pray ed,

nkjv@Luke:22:43 @ Then an angel appear ed to Him from heaven, strengthening Him.

nkjv@Luke:22:44 @ And being in agony, He pray ed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

nkjv@Luke:22:47 @ And while He was still speaking, behold, a multitude; and he who was call ed Judas, one of the twelve, went before them and drew near to Jesus to kiss Him.

nkjv@Luke:22:51 @ But Jesus answer ed and said, "Permit even this." And He touch ed his ear and heal ed him.

nkjv@Luke:22:54 @ Having arrest ed Him, they l ed Him and brought Him into the high priest's house. But Peter follow ed at a distance.

nkjv@Luke:22:55 @ Now when they had kindl ed a fire in the midst of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat among them.

nkjv@Luke:22:56 @ And a certain servant girl, seeing him as he sat by the fire, look ed intently at him and said, "This man was also with Him."

nkjv@Luke:22:57 @ But he deni ed Him, saying, "Woman, I do not know Him."

nkjv@Luke:22:59 @ Then after about an hour had pass ed, another confidently affirm ed, saying, "Surely this fellow also was with Him, for he is a Galilean."

nkjv@Luke:22:60 @ But Peter said, "Man, I do not know what you are saying!" Imm ediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crow ed.

nkjv@Luke:22:61 @ And the Lord turn ed and look ed at Peter. Then Peter remember ed the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, "Before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times."

nkjv@Luke:22:63 @ Now the men who held Jesus mock ed Him and beat Him.

nkjv@Luke:22:64 @ And having blindfold ed Him, they struck Him on the face and ask ed Him, saying, "Prophesy! Who is the one who struck You?"

nkjv@Luke:22:66 @ As soon as it was day, the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together and l ed Him into their council, saying,

nkjv@Luke:22:71 @ And they said, "What further testimony do we ne ed? For we have heard it ourselves from His own mouth."

nkjv@Luke:23:1 @ Then the whole multitude of them arose and l ed Him to Pilate.

nkjv@Luke:23:3 @ Then Pilate ask ed Him, saying, "Are You the King of the Jews?" He answer ed him and said, "It is as you say."

nkjv@Luke:23:6 @ When Pilate heard of Galilee, he ask ed if the Man were a Galilean.

nkjv@Luke:23:7 @ And as soon as he knew that He belong ed to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem at that time.

nkjv@Luke:23:8 @ Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exce edingly glad; for he had desir ed for a long time to see Him, because he had heard many things about Him, and he hop ed to see some miracle done by Him.

nkjv@Luke:23:9 @ Then he question ed Him with many words, but He answer ed him nothing.

nkjv@Luke:23:10 @ And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accus ed Him.

nkjv@Luke:23:11 @ Then Herod, with his men of war, treat ed Him with contempt and mock ed Him, array ed Him in a gorgeous robe, and sent Him back to Pilate.

nkjv@Luke:23:13 @ Then Pilate, when he had call ed together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,

nkjv@Luke:23:14 @ said to them, "You have brought this Man to me, as one who misleads the people. And inde ed, having examin ed Him in your presence, I have found no fault in this Man concerning those things of which you accuse Him;

nkjv@Luke:23:18 @ And they all cri ed out at once, saying, "Away with this Man, and release to us Barabbas"--

nkjv@Luke:23:20 @ Pilate, therefore, wishing to release Jesus, again call ed out to them.

nkjv@Luke:23:21 @ But they shout ed, saying, "Crucify Him, crucify Him!"

nkjv@Luke:23:23 @ But they were insistent, demanding with loud voices that He be crucifi ed. And the voices of these men and of the chief priests prevail ed.

nkjv@Luke:23:24 @ So Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they request ed.

nkjv@Luke:23:25 @ And he releas ed to them the one they request ed, who for rebellion and murder had been thrown into prison; but he deliver ed Jesus to their will.

nkjv@Luke:23:26 @ Now as they l ed Him away, they laid hold of a certain man, Simon a Cyrenian, who was coming from the country, and on him they laid the cross that he might bear it after Jesus.

nkjv@Luke:23:27 @ And a great multitude of the people follow ed Him, and women who also mourn ed and lament ed Him.

nkjv@Luke:23:29 @ For inde ed the days are coming in which they will say, "Bless ed are the barren, wombs that never bore, and breasts which never nurs ed!'

nkjv@Luke:23:32 @ There were also two others, criminals, l ed with Him to be put to death.

nkjv@Luke:23:33 @ And when they had come to the place call ed Calvary, there they crucifi ed Him, and the criminals, one on the right hand and the other on the left.

nkjv@Luke:23:34 @ Then Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do." And they divid ed His garments and cast lots.

nkjv@Luke:23:35 @ And the people stood looking on. But even the rulers with them sneer ed, saying, "He sav ed others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ, the chosen of God."

nkjv@Luke:23:36 @ The soldiers also mock ed Him, coming and offering Him sour wine,

nkjv@Luke:23:39 @ Then one of the criminals who were hang ed blasphem ed Him, saying, "If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us."

nkjv@Luke:23:40 @ But the other, answering, rebuk ed him, saying, "Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?

nkjv@Luke:23:41 @ And we inde ed justly, for we receive the due reward of our de eds; but this Man has done nothing wrong."

nkjv@Luke:23:43 @ And Jesus said to him, "Assur edly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise."

nkjv@Luke:23:45 @ Then the sun was darken ed, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.

nkjv@Luke:23:46 @ And when Jesus had cri ed out with a loud voice, He said, "Father, "into Your hands I commit My spirit."' Having said this, He breath ed His last.

nkjv@Luke:23:47 @ So when the centurion saw what had happen ed, he glorifi ed God, saying, "Certainly this was a righteous Man!"

nkjv@Luke:23:48 @ And the whole crowd who came together to that sight, seeing what had been done, beat their breasts and return ed.

nkjv@Luke:23:49 @ But all His acquaintances, and the women who follow ed Him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching these things.

nkjv@Luke:23:50 @ Now behold, there was a man nam ed Joseph, a council member, a good and just man.

nkjv@Luke:23:51 @ He had not consent ed to their decision and de ed. He was from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who himself was also waiting for the kingdom of God.

nkjv@Luke:23:52 @ This man went to Pilate and ask ed for the body of Jesus.

nkjv@Luke:23:53 @ Then he took it down, wrapp ed it in linen, and laid it in a tomb that was hewn out of the rock, where no one had ever lain before.

nkjv@Luke:23:55 @ And the women who had come with Him from Galilee follow ed after, and they observ ed the tomb and how His body was laid.

nkjv@Luke:23:56 @ Then they return ed and prepar ed spices and fragrant oils. And they rest ed on the Sabbath according to the commandment.

nkjv@Luke:24:1 @ Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they, and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepar ed.

nkjv@Luke:24:2 @ But they found the stone roll ed away from the tomb.

nkjv@Luke:24:4 @ And it happen ed, as they were greatly perplex ed about this, that behold, two men stood by them in shining garments.

nkjv@Luke:24:5 @ Then, as they were afraid and bow ed their faces to the earth, they said to them, "Why do you seek the living among the dead?

nkjv@Luke:24:7 @ saying, "The Son of Man must be deliver ed into the hands of sinful men, and be crucifi ed, and the third day rise again."'

nkjv@Luke:24:8 @ And they remember ed His words.

nkjv@Luke:24:9 @ Then they return ed from the tomb and told all these things to the eleven and to all the rest.

nkjv@Luke:24:11 @ And their words seem ed to them like idle tales, and they did not believe them.

nkjv@Luke:24:12 @ But Peter arose and ran to the tomb; and stooping down, he saw the linen cloths lying by themselves; and he depart ed, marveling to himself at what had happen ed.

nkjv@Luke:24:13 @ Now behold, two of them were traveling that same day to a village call ed Emmaus, which was seven miles from Jerusalem.

nkjv@Luke:24:14 @ And they talk ed together of all these things which had happen ed.

nkjv@Luke:24:15 @ So it was, while they convers ed and reason ed, that Jesus Himself drew near and went with them.

nkjv@Luke:24:16 @ But their eyes were restrain ed, so that they did not know Him.

nkjv@Luke:24:18 @ Then the one whose name was Cleopas answer ed and said to Him, "Are You the only stranger in Jerusalem, and have You not known the things which happen ed there in these days?"

nkjv@Luke:24:19 @ And He said to them, "What things?" So they said to Him, "The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a Prophet mighty in de ed and word before God and all the people,

nkjv@Luke:24:20 @ and how the chief priests and our rulers deliver ed Him to be condemn ed to death, and crucifi ed Him.

nkjv@Luke:24:21 @ But we were hoping that it was He who was going to r edeem Israel. Inde ed, besides all this, today is the third day since these things happen ed.

nkjv@Luke:24:22 @ Yes, and certain women of our company, who arriv ed at the tomb early, astonish ed us.

nkjv@Luke:24:26 @ Ought not the Christ to have suffer ed these things and to enter into His glory?"

nkjv@Luke:24:27 @ And beginning at Moses and all the Prophets, He expound ed to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself.

nkjv@Luke:24:28 @ Then they drew near to the village where they were going, and He indicat ed that He would have gone farther.

nkjv@Luke:24:29 @ But they constrain ed Him, saying, "Abide with us, for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent." And He went in to stay with them.

nkjv@Luke:24:30 @ Now it came to pass, as He sat at the table with them, that He took bread, bless ed and broke it, and gave it to them.

nkjv@Luke:24:31 @ Then their eyes were open ed and they knew Him; and He vanish ed from their sight.

nkjv@Luke:24:32 @ And they said to one another, "Did not our heart burn within us while He talk ed with us on the road, and while He open ed the Scriptures to us?"

nkjv@Luke:24:33 @ So they rose up that very hour and return ed to Jerusalem, and found the eleven and those who were with them gather ed together,

nkjv@Luke:24:34 @ saying, "The Lord is risen inde ed, and has appear ed to Simon!"

nkjv@Luke:24:35 @ And they told about the things that had happen ed on the road, and how He was known to them in the breaking of bread.

nkjv@Luke:24:41 @ But while they still did not believe for joy, and marvel ed, He said to them, "Have you any food here?"

nkjv@Luke:24:42 @ So they gave Him a piece of a broil ed fish and some honeycomb.

nkjv@Luke:24:44 @ Then He said to them, "These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfill ed which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me."

nkjv@John:3:14 @ And as Moses lift ed up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lift ed up,

nkjv@John:3:16 @ For God so lov ed the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

nkjv@John:3:17 @ For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be sav ed.

nkjv@John:3:18 @ "He who believes in Him is not condemn ed; but he who does not believe is condemn ed already, because he has not believ ed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

nkjv@John:3:19 @ And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men lov ed darkness rather than light, because their de eds were evil.

nkjv@John:3:20 @ For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his de eds should be expos ed.

nkjv@John:3:21 @ But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his de eds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God."

nkjv@John:3:22 @ After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He remain ed with them and baptiz ed.

nkjv@John:3:23 @ Now John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were baptiz ed.

nkjv@John:3:26 @ And they came to John and said to him, "Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testifi ed--behold, He is baptizing, and all are coming to Him!"

nkjv@John:3:27 @ John answer ed and said, "A man can receive nothing unless it has been given to him from heaven.

nkjv@John:3:29 @ He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is fulfill ed.

nkjv@John:3:33 @ He who has receiv ed His testimony has certifi ed that God is true.

nkjv@John:4:1 @ Therefore, when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptiz ed more disciples than John

nkjv@John:4:3 @ He left Judea and depart ed again to Galilee.

nkjv@John:4:4 @ But He ne ed ed to go through Samaria.

nkjv@John:4:5 @ So He came to a city of Samaria which is call ed Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

nkjv@John:4:6 @ Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being weari ed from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

nkjv@John:4:10 @ Jesus answer ed and said to her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, "Give Me a drink,' you would have ask ed Him, and He would have given you living water."

nkjv@John:4:13 @ Jesus answer ed and said to her, "Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again,

nkjv@John:4:17 @ The woman answer ed and said, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her, "You have well said, "I have no husband,'

nkjv@John:4:20 @ Our fathers worship ed on this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where one ought to worship."

nkjv@John:4:25 @ The woman said to Him, "I know that Messiah is coming" (who is call ed Christ). "When He comes, He will tell us all things."

nkjv@John:4:27 @ And at this point His disciples came, and they marvel ed that He talk ed with a woman; yet no one said, "What do You seek?" or, "Why are You talking with her?"

nkjv@John:4:31 @ In the meantime His disciples urg ed Him, saying, "Rabbi, eat."

nkjv@John:4:38 @ I sent you to reap that for which you have not labor ed; others have labor ed, and you have enter ed into their labors."

nkjv@John:4:39 @ And many of the Samaritans of that city believ ed in Him because of the word of the woman who testifi ed, "He told me all that I ever did."

nkjv@John:4:40 @ So when the Samaritans had come to Him, they urg ed Him to stay with them; and He stay ed there two days.

nkjv@John:4:41 @ And many more believ ed because of His own word.

nkjv@John:4:42 @ Then they said to the woman, "Now we believe, not because of what you said, for we ourselves have heard Him and we know that this is inde ed the Christ, the Savior of the world."

nkjv@John:4:43 @ Now after the two days He depart ed from there and went to Galilee.

nkjv@John:4:44 @ For Jesus Himself testifi ed that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

nkjv@John:4:45 @ So when He came to Galilee, the Galileans receiv ed Him, having seen all the things He did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they also had gone to the feast.

nkjv@John:4:47 @ When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and implor ed Him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

nkjv@John:4:50 @ Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your son lives." So the man believ ed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.

nkjv@John:4:52 @ Then he inquir ed of them the hour when he got better. And they said to him, "Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him."

nkjv@John:4:53 @ So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, "Your son lives." And he himself believ ed, and his whole household.

nkjv@John:5:2 @ Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, which is call ed in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches.

nkjv@John:5:3 @ In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, paralyz ed, waiting for the moving of the water.

nkjv@John:5:4 @ For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool and stirr ed up the water; then whoever stepp ed in first, after the stirring of the water, was made well of whatever disease he had.

nkjv@John:5:7 @ The sick man answer ed Him, "Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirr ed up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me."

nkjv@John:5:8 @ Jesus said to him, "Rise, take up your b ed and walk."

nkjv@John:5:9 @ And imm ediately the man was made well, took up his b ed, and walk ed. And that day was the Sabbath.

nkjv@John:5:10 @ The Jews therefore said to him who was cur ed, "It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your b ed."

nkjv@John:5:11 @ He answer ed them, "He who made me well said to me, "Take up your b ed and walk."'

nkjv@John:5:12 @ Then they ask ed him, "Who is the Man who said to you, "Take up your b ed and walk'?"

nkjv@John:5:13 @ But the one who was heal ed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, a multitude being in that place.

nkjv@John:5:15 @ The man depart ed and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

nkjv@John:5:16 @ For this reason the Jews persecut ed Jesus, and sought to kill Him, because He had done these things on the Sabbath.

nkjv@John:5:17 @ But Jesus answer ed them, "My Father has been working until now, and I have been working."

nkjv@John:5:19 @ Then Jesus answer ed and said to them, "Most assur edly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner.

nkjv@John:5:22 @ For the Father judges no one, but has committ ed all judgment to the Son,

nkjv@John:5:24 @ "Most assur edly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has pass ed from death into life.

nkjv@John:5:25 @ Most assur edly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live.

nkjv@John:5:26 @ For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has grant ed the Son to have life in Himself,

nkjv@John:5:34 @ Yet I do not receive testimony from man, but I say these things that you may be sav ed.

nkjv@John:5:37 @ And the Father Himself, who sent Me, has testifi ed of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form.

nkjv@John:5:46 @ For if you believ ed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me.

nkjv@John:6:2 @ Then a great multitude follow ed Him, because they saw His signs which He perform ed on those who were diseas ed.

nkjv@John:6:5 @ Then Jesus lift ed up His eyes, and seeing a great multitude coming toward Him, He said to Philip, "Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?"

nkjv@John:6:7 @ Philip answer ed Him, "Two hundr ed denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may have a little."

nkjv@John:6:11 @ And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks He distribut ed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those sitting down; and likewise of the fish, as much as they want ed.

nkjv@John:6:12 @ So when they were fill ed, He said to His disciples, "Gather up the fragments that remain, so that nothing is lost."

nkjv@John:6:13 @ Therefore they gather ed them up, and fill ed twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.

nkjv@John:6:15 @ Therefore when Jesus perceiv ed that they were about to come and take Him by force to make Him king, He depart ed again to the mountain by Himself alone.

nkjv@John:6:19 @ So when they had row ed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near the boat; and they were afraid.

nkjv@John:6:21 @ Then they willingly receiv ed Him into the boat, and imm ediately the boat was at the land where they were going.

nkjv@John:6:22 @ On the following day, when the people who were standing on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except that one which His disciples had enter ed, and that Jesus had not enter ed the boat with His disciples, but His disciples had gone away alone--

nkjv@John:6:26 @ Jesus answer ed them and said, "Most assur edly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw the signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were fill ed.

nkjv@John:6:29 @ Jesus answer ed and said to them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent."

nkjv@John:6:32 @ Then Jesus said to them, "Most assur edly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven.

nkjv@John:6:41 @ The Jews then complain ed about Him, because He said, "I am the bread which came down from heaven."

nkjv@John:6:43 @ Jesus therefore answer ed and said to them, "Do not murmur among yourselves.

nkjv@John:6:45 @ It is written in the prophets, "And they shall all be taught by God.' Therefore everyone who has heard and learn ed from the Father comes to Me.

nkjv@John:6:47 @ Most assur edly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life.

nkjv@John:6:52 @ The Jews therefore quarrel ed among themselves, saying, "How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?"

nkjv@John:6:53 @ Then Jesus said to them, "Most assur edly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you.

nkjv@John:6:55 @ For My flesh is food inde ed, and My blood is drink inde ed.

nkjv@John:6:57 @ As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who fe eds on Me will live because of Me.

nkjv@John:6:61 @ When Jesus knew in Himself that His disciples complain ed about this, He said to them, "Does this offend you?

nkjv@John:6:65 @ And He said, "Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been grant ed to him by My Father."

nkjv@John:6:66 @ From that time many of His disciples went back and walk ed with Him no more.

nkjv@John:6:68 @ But Simon Peter answer ed Him, "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.

nkjv@John:6:70 @ Jesus answer ed them, "Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?"

nkjv@John:7:1 @ After these things Jesus walk ed in Galilee; for He did not want to walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill Him.

nkjv@John:7:9 @ When He had said these things to them, He remain ed in Galilee.

nkjv@John:7:15 @ And the Jews marvel ed, saying, "How does this Man know letters, having never studi ed?"

nkjv@John:7:16 @ Jesus answer ed them and said, "My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me.

nkjv@John:7:20 @ The people answer ed and said, "You have a demon. Who is seeking to kill You?"

nkjv@John:7:21 @ Jesus answer ed and said to them, "I did one work, and you all marvel.

nkjv@John:7:26 @ But look! He speaks boldly, and they say nothing to Him. Do the rulers know inde ed that this is truly the Christ?

nkjv@John:7:28 @ Then Jesus cri ed out, as He taught in the temple, saying, "You both know Me, and you know where I am from; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know.

nkjv@John:7:31 @ And many of the people believ ed in Him, and said, "When the Christ comes, will He do more signs than these which this Man has done?"

nkjv@John:7:37 @ On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cri ed out, saying, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.

nkjv@John:7:39 @ But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorifi ed.

nkjv@John:7:42 @ Has not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the se ed of David and from the town of Bethlehem, where David was?"

nkjv@John:7:44 @ Now some of them want ed to take Him, but no one laid hands on Him.

nkjv@John:7:46 @ The officers answer ed, "No man ever spoke like this Man!"

nkjv@John:7:47 @ Then the Pharisees answer ed them, "Are you also deceiv ed?

nkjv@John:7:48 @ Have any of the rulers or the Pharisees believ ed in Him?

nkjv@John:7:49 @ But this crowd that does not know the law is accurs ed."

nkjv@John:7:52 @ They answer ed and said to him, "Are you also from Galilee? Search and look, for no prophet has arisen out of Galilee."

nkjv@John:8:5 @ Now Moses, in the law, command ed us that such should be ston ed. But what do You say?"

nkjv@John:8:6 @ This they said, testing Him, that they might have something of which to accuse Him. But Jesus stoop ed down and wrote on the ground with His finger, as though He did not hear.

nkjv@John:8:7 @ So when they continu ed asking Him, He rais ed Himself up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first."

nkjv@John:8:8 @ And again He stoop ed down and wrote on the ground.

nkjv@John:8:9 @ Then those who heard it, being convict ed by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning with the oldest even to the last. And Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.

nkjv@John:8:10 @ When Jesus had rais ed Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, "Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemn ed you?"

nkjv@John:8:14 @ Jesus answer ed and said to them, "Even if I bear witness of Myself, My witness is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from and where I am going.

nkjv@John:8:19 @ Then they said to Him, "Where is Your Father?" Jesus answer ed, "You know neither Me nor My Father. If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also."

nkjv@John:8:30 @ As He spoke these words, many believ ed in Him.

nkjv@John:8:31 @ Then Jesus said to those Jews who believ ed Him, "If you abide in My word, you are My disciples inde ed.

nkjv@John:8:33 @ They answer ed Him, "We are Abraham's descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can You say, "You will be made free'?"

nkjv@John:8:34 @ Jesus answer ed them, "Most assur edly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin.

nkjv@John:8:36 @ Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free inde ed.

nkjv@John:8:39 @ They answer ed and said to Him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham.

nkjv@John:8:41 @ You do the de eds of your father." Then they said to Him, "We were not born of fornication; we have one Father--God."

nkjv@John:8:42 @ Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proce ed ed forth and came from God; nor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me.

nkjv@John:8:48 @ Then the Jews answer ed and said to Him, "Do we not say rightly that You are a Samaritan and have a demon?"

nkjv@John:8:49 @ Jesus answer ed, "I do not have a demon; but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.

nkjv@John:8:51 @ Most assur edly, I say to you, if anyone keeps My word he shall never see death."

nkjv@John:8:54 @ Jesus answer ed, "If I honor Myself, My honor is nothing. It is My Father who honors Me, of whom you say that He is your God.

nkjv@John:8:56 @ Your father Abraham rejoic ed to see My day, and he saw it and was glad."

nkjv@John:8:58 @ Jesus said to them, "Most assur edly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM."

nkjv@John:8:59 @ Then they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so pass ed by.

nkjv@John:9:1 @ Now as Jesus pass ed by, He saw a man who was blind from birth.

nkjv@John:9:2 @ And His disciples ask ed Him, saying, "Rabbi, who sinn ed, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"

nkjv@John:9:3 @ Jesus answer ed, "Neither this man nor his parents sinn ed, but that the works of God should be reveal ed in him.

nkjv@John:9:6 @ When He had said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay with the saliva; and He anoint ed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.

nkjv@John:9:7 @ And He said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is translat ed, Sent). So he went and wash ed, and came back seeing.

nkjv@John:9:8 @ Therefore the neighbors and those who previously had seen that he was blind said, "Is not this he who sat and begg ed?"

nkjv@John:9:10 @ Therefore they said to him, "How were your eyes open ed?"

nkjv@John:9:11 @ He answer ed and said, "A Man call ed Jesus made clay and anoint ed my eyes and said to me, "Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.' So I went and wash ed, and I receiv ed sight."

nkjv@John:9:14 @ Now it was a Sabbath when Jesus made the clay and open ed his eyes.

nkjv@John:9:15 @ Then the Pharisees also ask ed him again how he had receiv ed his sight. He said to them, "He put clay on my eyes, and I wash ed, and I see."

nkjv@John:9:17 @ They said to the blind man again, "What do you say about Him because He open ed your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."

nkjv@John:9:18 @ But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind and receiv ed his sight, until they call ed the parents of him who had receiv ed his sight.

nkjv@John:9:19 @ And they ask ed them, saying, "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"

nkjv@John:9:20 @ His parents answer ed them and said, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

nkjv@John:9:21 @ but by what means he now sees we do not know, or who open ed his eyes we do not know. He is of age; ask him. He will speak for himself."

nkjv@John:9:22 @ His parents said these things because they fear ed the Jews, for the Jews had agre ed already that if anyone confess ed that He was Christ, he would be put out of the synagogue.

nkjv@John:9:24 @ So they again call ed the man who was blind, and said to him, "Give God the glory! We know that this Man is a sinner."

nkjv@John:9:25 @ He answer ed and said, "Whether He is a sinner or not I do not know. One thing I know: that though I was blind, now I see."

nkjv@John:9:27 @ He answer ed them, "I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become His disciples?"

nkjv@John:9:28 @ Then they revil ed him and said, "You are His disciple, but we are Moses' disciples.

nkjv@John:9:30 @ The man answer ed and said to them, "Why, this is a marvelous thing, that you do not know where He is from; yet He has open ed my eyes!

nkjv@John:9:32 @ Since the world began it has been unheard of that anyone open ed the eyes of one who was born blind.

nkjv@John:9:34 @ They answer ed and said to him, "You were completely born in sins, and are you teaching us?" And they cast him out.

nkjv@John:9:36 @ He answer ed and said, "Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?"

nkjv@John:9:38 @ Then he said, "Lord, I believe!" And he worship ed Him.

nkjv@John:10:1 @ "Most assur edly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

nkjv@John:10:6 @ Jesus us ed this illustration, but they did not understand the things which He spoke to them.

nkjv@John:10:7 @ Then Jesus said to them again, "Most assur edly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

nkjv@John:10:9 @ I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be sav ed, and will go in and out and find pasture.

nkjv@John:10:18 @ No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I have receiv ed from My Father."

nkjv@John:10:22 @ Now it was the Feast of D edication in Jerusalem, and it was winter.

nkjv@John:10:23 @ And Jesus walk ed in the temple, in Solomon's porch.

nkjv@John:10:24 @ Then the Jews surround ed Him and said to Him, "How long do You keep us in doubt? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly."

nkjv@John:10:25 @ Jesus answer ed them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me.

nkjv@John:10:33 @ The Jews answer ed Him, saying, "For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God."

nkjv@John:10:34 @ Jesus answer ed them, "Is it not written in your law, "I said, "You are gods"'?

nkjv@John:10:35 @ If He call ed them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),

nkjv@John:10:36 @ do you say of Him whom the Father sanctifi ed and sent into the world, "You are blaspheming,' because I said, "I am the Son of God'?

nkjv@John:10:39 @ Therefore they sought again to seize Him, but He escap ed out of their hand.

nkjv@John:10:40 @ And He went away again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptizing at first, and there He stay ed.

nkjv@John:10:41 @ Then many came to Him and said, "John perform ed no sign, but all the things that John spoke about this Man were true."

nkjv@John:10:42 @ And many believ ed in Him there.

nkjv@John:11:2 @ It was that Mary who anoint ed the Lord with fragrant oil and wip ed His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

nkjv@John:11:4 @ When Jesus heard that, He said, "This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorifi ed through it."

nkjv@John:11:5 @ Now Jesus lov ed Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

nkjv@John:11:6 @ So, when He heard that he was sick, He stay ed two more days in the place where He was.

nkjv@John:11:9 @ Jesus answer ed, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

nkjv@John:11:16 @ Then Thomas, who is call ed the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, "Let us also go, that we may die with Him."

nkjv@John:11:19 @ And many of the Jews had join ed the women around Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

nkjv@John:11:21 @ Now Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have di ed.

nkjv@John:11:28 @ And when she had said these things, she went her way and secretly call ed Mary her sister, saying, "The Teacher has come and is calling for you."

nkjv@John:11:31 @ Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and comforting her, when they saw that Mary rose up quickly and went out, follow ed her, saying, "She is going to the tomb to weep there."

nkjv@John:11:32 @ Then, when Mary came where Jesus was, and saw Him, she fell down at His feet, saying to Him, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have di ed."

nkjv@John:11:33 @ Therefore, when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, He groan ed in the spirit and was troubl ed.

nkjv@John:11:36 @ Then the Jews said, "See how He lov ed him!"

nkjv@John:11:37 @ And some of them said, "Could not this Man, who open ed the eyes of the blind, also have kept this man from dying?"

nkjv@John:11:41 @ Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lift ed up His eyes and said, "Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.

nkjv@John:11:47 @ Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gather ed a council and said, "What shall we do? For this Man works many signs.

nkjv@John:11:50 @ nor do you consider that it is exp edient for us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation should perish."

nkjv@John:11:51 @ Now this he did not say on his own authority; but being high priest that year he prophesi ed that Jesus would die for the nation,

nkjv@John:11:53 @ Then, from that day on, they plott ed to put Him to death.

nkjv@John:11:54 @ Therefore Jesus no longer walk ed openly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city call ed Ephraim, and there remain ed with His disciples.

nkjv@John:12:1 @ Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was who had been dead, whom He had rais ed from the dead.

nkjv@John:19:23 @ Then the soldiers, when they had crucifi ed Jesus, took His garments and made four parts, to each soldier a part, and also the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece.

nkjv@John:21:5 @ Then Jesus said to them, "Children, have you any food?" They answer ed Him, "No."

nkjv@John:21:7 @ Therefore that disciple whom Jesus lov ed said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment (for he had remov ed it), and plung ed into the sea.

nkjv@Acts:15:40 @ but Paul chose Silas and depart ed, being commend ed by the brethren to the grace of God.

nkjv@Acts:16:1 @ Then he came to Derbe and Lystra. And behold, a certain disciple was there, nam ed Timothy, the son of a certain Jewish woman who believ ed, but his father was Greek.

nkjv@Acts:16:3 @ Paul want ed to have him go on with him. And he took him and circumcis ed him because of the Jews who were in that region, for they all knew that his father was Greek.

nkjv@Acts:16:4 @ And as they went through the cities, they deliver ed to them the decrees to keep, which were determin ed by the apostles and elders at Jerusalem.

nkjv@Acts:16:5 @ So the churches were strengthen ed in the faith, and increas ed in number daily.

nkjv@Acts:16:7 @ After they had come to Mysia, they tri ed to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit did not permit them.

nkjv@Acts:16:9 @ And a vision appear ed to Paul in the night. A man of Mac edonia stood and plead ed with him, saying, "Come over to Mac edonia and help us."

nkjv@Acts:16:10 @ Now after he had seen the vision, imm ediately we sought to go to Mac edonia, concluding that the Lord had call ed us to preach the gospel to them.

nkjv@Acts:16:12 @ and from there to Philippi, which is the foremost city of that part of Mac edonia, a colony. And we were staying in that city for some days.

nkjv@Acts:16:14 @ Now a certain woman nam ed Lydia heard us. She was a seller of purple from the city of Thyatira, who worship ed God. The Lord open ed her heart to he ed the things spoken by Paul.

nkjv@Acts:16:15 @ And when she and her household were baptiz ed, she begg ed us, saying, "If you have judg ed me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay." So she persuad ed us.

nkjv@Acts:16:16 @ Now it happen ed, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possess ed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune-telling.

nkjv@Acts:16:17 @ This girl follow ed Paul and us, and cri ed out, saying, "These men are the servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation."

nkjv@Acts:16:18 @ And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoy ed, turn ed and said to the spirit, "I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her." And he came out that very hour.

nkjv@Acts:16:19 @ But when her masters saw that their hope of profit was gone, they seiz ed Paul and Silas and dragg ed them into the marketplace to the authorities.

nkjv@Acts:16:20 @ And they brought them to the magistrates, and said, "These men, being Jews, exce edingly trouble our city;

nkjv@Acts:16:22 @ Then the multitude rose up together against them; and the magistrates tore off their clothes and command ed them to be beaten with rods.

nkjv@Acts:16:24 @ Having receiv ed such a charge, he put them into the inner prison and fasten ed their feet in the stocks.

nkjv@Acts:16:26 @ Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and imm ediately all the doors were open ed and everyone's chains were loos ed.

nkjv@Acts:16:27 @ And the keeper of the prison, awaking from sleep and seeing the prison doors open, supposing the prisoners had fl ed, drew his sword and was about to kill himself.

nkjv@Acts:16:28 @ But Paul call ed with a loud voice, saying, "Do yourself no harm, for we are all here."

nkjv@Acts:16:29 @ Then he call ed for a light, ran in, and fell down trembling before Paul and Silas.

nkjv@Acts:16:30 @ And he brought them out and said, "Sirs, what must I do to be sav ed?"

nkjv@Acts:16:31 @ So they said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be sav ed, you and your household."

nkjv@Acts:16:33 @ And he took them the same hour of the night and wash ed their stripes. And imm ediately he and all his family were baptiz ed.

nkjv@Acts:16:34 @ Now when he had brought them into his house, he set food before them; and he rejoic ed, having believ ed in God with all his household.

nkjv@Acts:16:36 @ So the keeper of the prison report ed these words to Paul, saying, "The magistrates have sent to let you go. Now therefore depart, and go in peace."

nkjv@Acts:16:37 @ But Paul said to them, "They have beaten us openly, uncondemn ed Romans, and have thrown us into prison. And now do they put us out secretly? No inde ed! Let them come themselves and get us out."

nkjv@Acts:16:39 @ Then they came and plead ed with them and brought them out, and ask ed them to depart from the city.

nkjv@Acts:16:40 @ So they went out of the prison and enter ed the house of Lydia; and when they had seen the brethren, they encourag ed them and depart ed.

nkjv@Acts:17:1 @ Now when they had pass ed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.

nkjv@Acts:17:2 @ Then Paul, as his custom was, went in to them, and for three Sabbaths reason ed with them from the Scriptures,

nkjv@Acts:17:4 @ And some of them were persuad ed; and a great multitude of the devout Greeks, and not a few of the leading women, join ed Paul and Silas.

nkjv@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews who were not persuad ed, becoming envious, took some of the evil men from the marketplace, and gathering a mob, set all the city in an uproar and attack ed the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people.

nkjv@Acts:17:6 @ But when they did not find them, they dragg ed Jason and some brethren to the rulers of the city, crying out, "These who have turn ed the world upside down have come here too.

nkjv@Acts:17:7 @ Jason has harbor ed them, and these are all acting contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying there is another king--Jesus."

nkjv@Acts:17:8 @ And they troubl ed the crowd and the rulers of the city when they heard these things.

nkjv@Acts:17:10 @ Then the brethren imm ediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. When they arriv ed, they went into the synagogue of the Jews.

nkjv@Acts:17:11 @ These were more fair-mind ed than those in Thessalonica, in that they receiv ed the word with all readiness, and search ed the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so.

nkjv@Acts:17:12 @ Therefore many of them believ ed, and also not a few of the Greeks, prominent women as well as men.

nkjv@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews from Thessalonica learn ed that the word of God was preach ed by Paul at Berea, they came there also and stirr ed up the crowds.

nkjv@Acts:17:14 @ Then imm ediately the brethren sent Paul away, to go to the sea; but both Silas and Timothy remain ed there.

nkjv@Acts:17:15 @ So those who conduct ed Paul brought him to Athens; and receiving a command for Silas and Timothy to come to him with all spe ed, they depart ed.

nkjv@Acts:17:16 @ Now while Paul wait ed for them at Athens, his spirit was provok ed within him when he saw that the city was given over to idols.

nkjv@Acts:17:17 @ Therefore he reason ed in the synagogue with the Jews and with the Gentile worshipers, and in the marketplace daily with those who happen ed to be there.

nkjv@Acts:17:18 @ Then certain Epicurean and Stoic philosophers encounter ed him. And some said, "What does this babbler want to say?" Others said, "He seems to be a proclaimer of foreign gods," because he preach ed to them Jesus and the resurrection.

nkjv@Acts:17:25 @ Nor is He worship ed with men's hands, as though He ne ed ed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things.

nkjv@Acts:17:26 @ And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determin ed their preappoint ed times and the boundaries of their dwellings,

nkjv@Acts:17:29 @ Therefore, since we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, something shap ed by art and man's devising.

nkjv@Acts:17:30 @ Truly, these times of ignorance God overlook ed, but now commands all men everywhere to repent,

nkjv@Acts:17:31 @ because He has appoint ed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordain ed. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead."

nkjv@Acts:17:32 @ And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mock ed, while others said, "We will hear you again on this matter."

nkjv@Acts:17:33 @ So Paul depart ed from among them.

nkjv@Acts:17:34 @ However, some men join ed him and believ ed, among them Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman nam ed Damaris, and others with them.

nkjv@Acts:18:1 @ After these things Paul depart ed from Athens and went to Corinth.

nkjv@Acts:18:2 @ And he found a certain Jew nam ed Aquila, born in Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla (because Claudius had command ed all the Jews to depart from Rome); and he came to them.

nkjv@Acts:18:3 @ So, because he was of the same trade, he stay ed with them and work ed; for by occupation they were tentmakers.

nkjv@Acts:18:4 @ And he reason ed in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuad ed both Jews and Greeks.

nkjv@Acts:18:5 @ When Silas and Timothy had come from Mac edonia, Paul was compell ed by the Spirit, and testifi ed to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.

nkjv@Acts:18:6 @ But when they oppos ed him and blasphem ed, he shook his garments and said to them, "Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean. From now on I will go to the Gentiles."

nkjv@Acts:18:7 @ And he depart ed from there and enter ed the house of a certain man nam ed Justus, one who worship ed God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.

nkjv@Acts:18:8 @ Then Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believ ed on the Lord with all his household. And many of the Corinthians, hearing, believ ed and were baptiz ed.

nkjv@Acts:18:11 @ And he continu ed there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

nkjv@Acts:18:14 @ And when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it were a matter of wrongdoing or wick ed crimes, O Jews, there would be reason why I should bear with you.

nkjv@Acts:18:18 @ So Paul still remain ed a good while. Then he took leave of the brethren and sail ed for Syria, and Priscilla and Aquila were with him. He had his hair cut off at Cenchrea, for he had taken a vow.

nkjv@Acts:18:19 @ And he came to Ephesus, and left them there; but he himself enter ed the synagogue and reason ed with the Jews.

nkjv@Acts:18:20 @ When they ask ed him to stay a longer time with them, he did not consent,

nkjv@Acts:18:21 @ but took leave of them, saying, "I must by all means keep this coming feast in Jerusalem; but I will return again to you, God willing." And he sail ed from Ephesus.

nkjv@Acts:18:22 @ And when he had land ed at Caesarea, and gone up and greet ed the church, he went down to Antioch.

nkjv@Acts:18:23 @ After he had spent some time there, he depart ed and went over the region of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.

nkjv@Acts:18:24 @ Now a certain Jew nam ed Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man and mighty in the Scriptures, came to Ephesus.

nkjv@Acts:18:25 @ This man had been instruct ed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things of the Lord, though he knew only the baptism of John.

nkjv@Acts:18:26 @ So he began to speak boldly in the synagogue. When Aquila and Priscilla heard him, they took him aside and explain ed to him the way of God more accurately.

nkjv@Acts:18:27 @ And when he desir ed to cross to Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him; and when he arriv ed, he greatly help ed those who had believ ed through grace;

nkjv@Acts:18:28 @ for he vigorously refut ed the Jews publicly, showing from the Scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.

nkjv@Acts:19:1 @ And it happen ed, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having pass ed through the upper regions, came to Ephesus. And finding some disciples

nkjv@Acts:19:2 @ he said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believ ed?" So they said to him, "We have not so much as heard whether there is a Holy Spirit."

nkjv@Acts:19:3 @ And he said to them, "Into what then were you baptiz ed?" So they said, "Into John's baptism."

nkjv@Acts:19:4 @ Then Paul said, "John inde ed baptiz ed with a baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on Him who would come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus."

nkjv@Acts:19:5 @ When they heard this, they were baptiz ed in the name of the Lord Jesus.

nkjv@Acts:19:6 @ And when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesi ed.

nkjv@Acts:19:9 @ But when some were harden ed and did not believe, but spoke evil of the Way before the multitude, he depart ed from them and withdrew the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.

nkjv@Acts:19:10 @ And this continu ed for two years, so that all who dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.

nkjv@Acts:19:11 @ Now God work ed unusual miracles by the hands of Paul,

nkjv@Acts:19:15 @ And the evil spirit answer ed and said, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?"

nkjv@Acts:19:16 @ Then the man in whom the evil spirit was leap ed on them, overpower ed them, and prevail ed against them, so that they fl ed out of that house nak ed and wound ed.

nkjv@Acts:19:17 @ This became known both to all Jews and Greeks dwelling in Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnifi ed.

nkjv@Acts:19:18 @ And many who had believ ed came confessing and telling their de eds.

nkjv@Acts:19:19 @ Also, many of those who had practic ed magic brought their books together and burn ed them in the sight of all. And they count ed up the value of them, and it total ed fifty thousand pieces of silver.

nkjv@Acts:19:20 @ So the word of the Lord grew mightily and prevail ed.

nkjv@Acts:19:21 @ When these things were accomplish ed, Paul purpos ed in the Spirit, when he had pass ed through Mac edonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."

nkjv@Acts:19:22 @ So he sent into Mac edonia two of those who minister ed to him, Timothy and Erastus, but he himself stay ed in Asia for a time.

nkjv@Acts:19:24 @ For a certain man nam ed Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Diana, brought no small profit to the craftsmen.

nkjv@Acts:19:25 @ He call ed them together with the workers of similar occupation, and said: "Men, you know that we have our prosperity by this trade.

nkjv@Acts:19:26 @ Moreover you see and hear that not only at Ephesus, but throughout almost all Asia, this Paul has persuad ed and turn ed away many people, saying that they are not gods which are made with hands.

nkjv@Acts:19:27 @ So not only is this trade of ours in danger of falling into disrepute, but also the temple of the great goddess Diana may be despis ed and her magnificence destroy ed, whom all Asia and the world worship."

nkjv@Acts:19:28 @ Now when they heard this, they were full of wrath and cri ed out, saying, "Great is Diana of the Ephesians!"

nkjv@Acts:19:29 @ So the whole city was fill ed with confusion, and rush ed into the theater with one accord, having seiz ed Gaius and Aristarchus, Mac edonians, Paul's travel companions.

nkjv@Acts:19:30 @ And when Paul want ed to go in to the people, the disciples would not allow him.

nkjv@Acts:19:32 @ Some therefore cri ed one thing and some another, for the assembly was confus ed, and most of them did not know why they had come together.

nkjv@Acts:19:33 @ And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander motion ed with his hand, and want ed to make his defense to the people.

nkjv@Acts:19:34 @ But when they found out that he was a Jew, all with one voice cri ed out for about two hours, "Great is Diana of the Ephesians!"

nkjv@Acts:19:35 @ And when the city clerk had quiet ed the crowd, he said: "Men of Ephesus, what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple guardian of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Zeus?

nkjv@Acts:19:36 @ Therefore, since these things cannot be deni ed, you ought to be quiet and do nothing rashly.

nkjv@Acts:19:39 @ But if you have any other inquiry to make, it shall be determin ed in the lawful assembly.

nkjv@Acts:19:40 @ For we are in danger of being call ed in question for today's uproar, there being no reason which we may give to account for this disorderly gathering."

nkjv@Acts:19:41 @ And when he had said these things, he dismiss ed the assembly.

nkjv@Acts:20:1 @ After the uproar had ceas ed, Paul call ed the disciples to himself, embrac ed them, and depart ed to go to Mac edonia.

nkjv@Acts:20:2 @ Now when he had gone over that region and encourag ed them with many words, he came to Greece

nkjv@Acts:20:3 @ and stay ed three months. And when the Jews plott ed against him as he was about to sail to Syria, he decid ed to return through Mac edonia.

nkjv@Acts:20:4 @ And Sopater of Berea accompani ed him to Asia--also Aristarchus and Secundus of the Thessalonians, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus of Asia.

nkjv@Acts:20:5 @ These men, going ahead, wait ed for us at Troas.

nkjv@Acts:20:6 @ But we sail ed away from Philippi after the Days of Unleaven ed Bread, and in five days join ed them at Troas, where we stay ed seven days.

nkjv@Acts:20:7 @ Now on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to them and continu ed his message until midnight.

nkjv@Acts:20:8 @ There were many lamps in the upper room where they were gather ed together.

nkjv@Acts:20:9 @ And in a window sat a certain young man nam ed Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep. He was overcome by sleep; and as Paul continu ed speaking, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead.

nkjv@Acts:20:11 @ Now when he had come up, had broken bread and eaten, and talk ed a long while, even till daybreak, he depart ed.

nkjv@Acts:20:12 @ And they brought the young man in alive, and they were not a little comfort ed.

nkjv@Acts:20:13 @ Then we went ahead to the ship and sail ed to Assos, there intending to take Paul on board; for so he had given orders, intending himself to go on foot.

nkjv@Acts:20:15 @ We sail ed from there, and the next day came opposite Chios. The following day we arriv ed at Samos and stay ed at Trogyllium. The next day we came to Miletus.

nkjv@Acts:20:16 @ For Paul had decid ed to sail past Ephesus, so that he would not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hurrying to be at Jerusalem, if possible, on the Day of Pentecost.

nkjv@Acts:20:17 @ From Miletus he sent to Ephesus and call ed for the elders of the church.

nkjv@Acts:20:18 @ And when they had come to him, he said to them: "You know, from the first day that I came to Asia, in what manner I always liv ed among you,

nkjv@Acts:20:19 @ serving the Lord with all humility, with many tears and trials which happen ed to me by the plotting of the Jews;

nkjv@Acts:20:20 @ how I kept back nothing that was helpful, but proclaim ed it to you, and taught you publicly and from house to house,

nkjv@Acts:20:24 @ But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I receiv ed from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

nkjv@Acts:20:25 @ "And inde ed, now I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, will see my face no more.

nkjv@Acts:20:34 @ Yes, you yourselves know that these hands have provid ed for my necessities, and for those who were with me.

nkjv@Acts:20:35 @ I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, "It is more bless ed to give than to receive."'

nkjv@Acts:20:36 @ And when he had said these things, he knelt down and pray ed with them all.

nkjv@Acts:20:37 @ Then they all wept freely, and fell on Paul's neck and kiss ed him,

nkjv@Acts:20:38 @ sorrowing most of all for the words which he spoke, that they would see his face no more. And they accompani ed him to the ship.

nkjv@Acts:21:1 @ Now it came to pass, that when we had depart ed from them and set sail, running a straight course we came to Cos, the following day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.

nkjv@Acts:21:3 @ When we had sight ed Cyprus, we pass ed it on the left, sail ed to Syria, and land ed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload her cargo.

nkjv@Acts:21:4 @ And finding disciples, we stay ed there seven days. They told Paul through the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Acts:21:5 @ When we had come to the end of those days, we depart ed and went on our way; and they all accompani ed us, with wives and children, till we were out of the city. And we knelt down on the shore and pray ed.

nkjv@Acts:21:6 @ When we had taken our leave of one another, we board ed the ship, and they return ed home.

nkjv@Acts:21:7 @ And when we had finish ed our voyage from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, greet ed the brethren, and stay ed with them one day.

nkjv@Acts:21:8 @ On the next day we who were Paul's companions depart ed and came to Caesarea, and enter ed the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stay ed with him.

nkjv@Acts:21:9 @ Now this man had four virgin daughters who prophesi ed.

nkjv@Acts:21:10 @ And as we stay ed many days, a certain prophet nam ed Agabus came down from Judea.

nkjv@Acts:21:14 @ So when he would not be persuad ed, we ceas ed, saying, "The will of the Lord be done."

nkjv@Acts:21:15 @ And after those days we pack ed and went up to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Acts:21:17 @ And when we had come to Jerusalem, the brethren receiv ed us gladly.

nkjv@Acts:21:19 @ When he had greet ed them, he told in detail those things which God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.

nkjv@Acts:21:20 @ And when they heard it, they glorifi ed the Lord. And they said to him, "You see, brother, how many myriads of Jews there are who have believ ed, and they are all zealous for the law;

nkjv@Acts:23:7 @ And when he had said this, a dissension arose between the Pharisees and the Sadducees; and the assembly was divid ed.

nkjv@Acts:23:9 @ Then there arose a loud outcry. And the scribes of the Pharisees' party arose and protest ed, saying, "We find no evil in this man; but if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him, let us not fight against God."

nkjv@Acts:23:10 @ Now when there arose a great dissension, the commander, fearing lest Paul might be pull ed to pieces by them, command ed the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them, and bring him into the barracks.

nkjv@Acts:23:11 @ But the following night the Lord stood by him and said, "Be of good cheer, Paul; for as you have testifi ed for Me in Jerusalem, so you must also bear witness at Rome."

nkjv@Acts:24:23 @ So he command ed the centurion to keep Paul and to let him have liberty, and told him not to forbid any of his friends to provide for or visit him.

nkjv@Acts:24:25 @ Now as he reason ed about righteousness, self-control, and the judgment to come, Felix was afraid and answer ed, "Go away for now; when I have a convenient time I will call for you."

nkjv@Acts:24:26 @ Meanwhile he also hop ed that money would be given him by Paul, that he might release him. Therefore he sent for him more often and convers ed with him.

nkjv@Acts:25:21 @ But when Paul appeal ed to be reserv ed for the decision of Augustus, I command ed him to be kept till I could send him to Caesar."

nkjv@Acts:25:23 @ So the next day, when Agrippa and Bernice had come with great pomp, and had enter ed the auditorium with the commanders and the prominent men of the city, at Festus' command Paul was brought in.

nkjv@Acts:25:24 @ And Festus said: "King Agrippa and all the men who are here present with us, you see this man about whom the whole assembly of the Jews petition ed me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying out that he was not fit to live any longer.

nkjv@Acts:26:7 @ To this promise our twelve tribes, earnestly serving God night and day, hope to attain. For this hope's sake, King Agrippa, I am accus ed by the Jews.

nkjv@Acts:26:32 @ Then Agrippa said to Festus, "This man might have been set free if he had not appeal ed to Caesar."

nkjv@Acts:27:1 @ And when it was decid ed that we should sail to Italy, they deliver ed Paul and some other prisoners to one nam ed Julius, a centurion of the Augustan Regiment.

nkjv@Acts:27:2 @ So, entering a ship of Adramyttium, we put to sea, meaning to sail along the coasts of Asia. Aristarchus, a Mac edonian of Thessalonica, was with us.

nkjv@Acts:27:3 @ And the next day we land ed at Sidon. And Julius treat ed Paul kindly and gave him liberty to go to his friends and receive care.

nkjv@Acts:27:4 @ When we had put to sea from there, we sail ed under the shelter of Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.

nkjv@Acts:27:5 @ And when we had sail ed over the sea which is off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.

nkjv@Acts:27:7 @ When we had sail ed slowly many days, and arriv ed with difficulty off Cnidus, the wind not permitting us to proce ed, we sail ed under the shelter of Crete off Salmone.

nkjv@Acts:27:8 @ Passing it with difficulty, we came to a place call ed Fair Havens, near the city of Lasea.

nkjv@Acts:27:9 @ Now when much time had been spent, and sailing was now dangerous because the Fast was already over, Paul advis ed them,

nkjv@Acts:27:11 @ Nevertheless the centurion was more persuad ed by the helmsman and the owner of the ship than by the things spoken by Paul.

nkjv@Acts:27:12 @ And because the harbor was not suitable to winter in, the majority advis ed to set sail from there also, if by any means they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete opening toward the southwest and northwest, and winter there.

nkjv@Acts:27:13 @ When the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtain ed their desire, putting out to sea, they sail ed close by Crete.

nkjv@Acts:27:14 @ But not long after, a tempestuous head wind arose, call ed Euroclydon.

nkjv@Acts:27:16 @ And running under the shelter of an island call ed Clauda, we secur ed the skiff with difficulty.

nkjv@Acts:27:17 @ When they had taken it on board, they us ed cables to undergird the ship; and fearing lest they should run aground on the Syrtis Sands, they struck sail and so were driven.

nkjv@Acts:27:18 @ And because we were exce edingly tempest-toss ed, the next day they lighten ed the ship.

nkjv@Acts:27:20 @ Now when neither sun nor stars appear ed for many days, and no small tempest beat on us, all hope that we would be sav ed was finally given up.

nkjv@Acts:27:21 @ But after long abstinence from food, then Paul stood in the midst of them and said, "Men, you should have listen ed to me, and not have sail ed from Crete and incurr ed this disaster and loss.

nkjv@Acts:27:24 @ saying, "Do not be afraid, Paul; you must be brought before Caesar; and inde ed God has grant ed you all those who sail with you.'

nkjv@Acts:27:27 @ Now when the fourteenth night had come, as we were driven up and down in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors sens ed that they were drawing near some land.

nkjv@Acts:27:29 @ Then, fearing lest we should run aground on the rocks, they dropp ed four anchors from the stern, and pray ed for day to come.

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

nkjv@Acts:27:33 @ And as day was about to dawn, Paul implor ed them all to take food, saying, "Today is the fourteenth day you have wait ed and continu ed without food, and eaten nothing.

nkjv@Acts:27:36 @ Then they were all encourag ed, and also took food themselves.

nkjv@Acts:27:37 @ And in all we were two hundr ed and seventy-six persons on the ship.

nkjv@Acts:27:38 @ So when they had eaten enough, they lighten ed the ship and threw out the wheat into the sea.

nkjv@Acts:27:39 @ When it was day, they did not recognize the land; but they observ ed a bay with a beach, onto which they plann ed to run the ship if possible.

nkjv@Acts:27:40 @ And they let go the anchors and left them in the sea, meanwhile loosing the rudder ropes; and they hoist ed the mainsail to the wind and made for shore.

nkjv@Acts:27:41 @ But striking a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the prow stuck fast and remain ed immovable, but the stern was being broken up by the violence of the waves.

nkjv@Acts:27:43 @ But the centurion, wanting to save Paul, kept them from their purpose, and command ed that those who could swim should jump overboard first and get to land,

nkjv@Acts:27:44 @ and the rest, some on boards and some on parts of the ship. And so it was that they all escap ed safely to land.

nkjv@Acts:28:1 @ Now when they had escap ed, they then found out that the island was call ed Malta.

nkjv@Acts:28:2 @ And the natives show ed us unusual kindness; for they kindl ed a fire and made us all welcome, because of the rain that was falling and because of the cold.

nkjv@Acts:28:3 @ But when Paul had gather ed a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fasten ed on his hand.

nkjv@Acts:28:4 @ So when the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, "No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escap ed the sea, yet justice does not allow to live."

nkjv@Acts:28:5 @ But he shook off the creature into the fire and suffer ed no harm.

nkjv@Acts:28:6 @ However, they were expecting that he would swell up or suddenly fall down dead. But after they had look ed for a long time and saw no harm come to him, they chang ed their minds and said that he was a god.

nkjv@Acts:28:7 @ In that region there was an estate of the leading citizen of the island, whose name was Publius, who receiv ed us and entertain ed us courteously for three days.

nkjv@Acts:28:8 @ And it happen ed that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and dysentery. Paul went in to him and pray ed, and he laid his hands on him and heal ed him.

nkjv@Acts:28:9 @ So when this was done, the rest of those on the island who had diseases also came and were heal ed.

nkjv@Acts:28:10 @ They also honor ed us in many ways; and when we depart ed, they provid ed such things as were necessary.

nkjv@Acts:28:11 @ After three months we sail ed in an Alexandrian ship whose figurehead was the Twin Brothers, which had winter ed at the island.

nkjv@Acts:28:12 @ And landing at Syracuse, we stay ed three days.

nkjv@Acts:28:13 @ From there we circl ed round and reach ed Rhegium. And after one day the south wind blew; and the next day we came to Puteoli,

nkjv@Acts:28:14 @ where we found brethren, and were invit ed to stay with them seven days. And so we went toward Rome.

nkjv@Acts:28:15 @ And from there, when the brethren heard about us, they came to meet us as far as Appii Forum and Three Inns. When Paul saw them, he thank ed God and took courage.

nkjv@Acts:28:16 @ Now when we came to Rome, the centurion deliver ed the prisoners to the captain of the guard; but Paul was permitt ed to dwell by himself with the soldier who guard ed him.

nkjv@Acts:28:17 @ And it came to pass after three days that Paul call ed the leaders of the Jews together. So when they had come together, he said to them: "Men and brethren, though I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was deliver ed as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,

nkjv@Acts:28:18 @ who, when they had examin ed me, want ed to let me go, because there was no cause for putting me to death.

nkjv@Acts:28:19 @ But when the Jews spoke against it, I was compell ed to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything of which to accuse my nation.

nkjv@Acts:28:20 @ For this reason therefore I have call ed for you, to see you and speak with you, because for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain."

nkjv@Acts:28:21 @ Then they said to him, "We neither receiv ed letters from Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brethren who came report ed or spoken any evil of you.

nkjv@Acts:28:23 @ So when they had appoint ed him a day, many came to him at his lodging, to whom he explain ed and solemnly testifi ed of the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus from both the Law of Moses and the Prophets, from morning till evening.

nkjv@Acts:28:24 @ And some were persuad ed by the things which were spoken, and some disbeliev ed.

nkjv@Acts:28:25 @ So when they did not agree among themselves, they depart ed after Paul had said one word: "The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,

nkjv@Romans:3:4 @ Certainly not! Inde ed, let God be true but every man a liar. As it is written: "That You may be justifi ed in Your words, And may overcome when You are judg ed."

nkjv@Romans:3:7 @ For if the truth of God has increas ed through my lie to His glory, why am I also still judg ed as a sinner?

nkjv@Romans:3:8 @ And why not say, "Let us do evil that good may come"?--as we are slanderously report ed and as some affirm that we say. Their condemnation is just.

nkjv@Romans:3:9 @ What then? Are we better than they? Not at all. For we have previously charg ed both Jews and Greeks that they are all under sin.

nkjv@Romans:3:12 @ They have all turn ed aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one."

nkjv@Romans:3:13 @ "Their throat is an open tomb; With their tongues they have practic ed deceit"; "The poison of asps is under their lips";

nkjv@Romans:3:15 @ "Their feet are swift to sh ed blood;

nkjv@Romans:3:19 @ Now we know that whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, that every mouth may be stopp ed, and all the world may become guilty before God.

nkjv@Romans:3:20 @ Therefore by the de eds of the law no flesh will be justifi ed in His sight, for by the law is the knowl edge of sin.

nkjv@Romans:3:21 @ But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is reveal ed, being witness ed by the Law and the Prophets,

nkjv@Romans:3:23 @ for all have sinn ed and fall short of the glory of God,

nkjv@Romans:3:24 @ being justifi ed freely by His grace through the r edemption that is in Christ Jesus,

nkjv@Romans:3:25 @ whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had pass ed over the sins that were previously committ ed,

nkjv@Romans:3:27 @ Where is boasting then? It is exclud ed. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith.

nkjv@Romans:3:28 @ Therefore we conclude that a man is justifi ed by faith apart from the de eds of the law.

nkjv@Romans:3:30 @ since there is one God who will justify the circumcis ed by faith and the uncircumcis ed through faith.

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

nkjv@Romans:4:3 @ For what does the Scripture say? "Abraham believ ed God, and it was account ed to him for righteousness."

nkjv@Romans:4:4 @ Now to him who works, the wages are not count ed as grace but as debt.

nkjv@Romans:4:5 @ But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is account ed for righteousness,

nkjv@Romans:4:6 @ just as David also describes the bless edness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness apart from works:

nkjv@Romans:4:7 @ "BBless ed are those whose lawless de eds are forgiven, And whose sins are cover ed;

nkjv@Romans:4:8 @ Bless ed is the man to whom the LORD shall not impute sin."

nkjv@Romans:4:9 @ Does this bless edness then come upon the circumcis ed only, or upon the uncircumcis ed also? For we say that faith was account ed to Abraham for righteousness.

nkjv@Romans:4:10 @ How then was it account ed? While he was circumcis ed, or uncircumcis ed? Not while circumcis ed, but while uncircumcis ed.

nkjv@Romans:4:11 @ And he receiv ed the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while still uncircumcis ed, that he might be the father of all those who believe, though they are uncircumcis ed, that righteousness might be imput ed to them also,

nkjv@Romans:4:12 @ and the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of the faith which our father Abraham had while still uncircumcis ed.

nkjv@Romans:4:13 @ For the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to Abraham or to his se ed through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

nkjv@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the se ed, not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all

nkjv@Romans:4:17 @ (as it is written, "I have made you a father of many nations" ) in the presence of Him whom he believ ed--God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did;

nkjv@Romans:4:18 @ who, contrary to hope, in hope believ ed, so that he became the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, "So shall your descendants be."

nkjv@Romans:4:19 @ And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead (since he was about a hundr ed years old), and the deadness of Sarah's womb.

nkjv@Romans:4:20 @ He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthen ed in faith, giving glory to God,

nkjv@Romans:4:21 @ and being fully convinc ed that what He had promis ed He was also able to perform.

nkjv@Romans:4:22 @ And therefore "it was account ed to him for righteousness."

nkjv@Romans:4:23 @ Now it was not written for his sake alone that it was imput ed to him,

nkjv@Romans:4:24 @ but also for us. It shall be imput ed to us who believe in Him who rais ed up Jesus our Lord from the dead,

nkjv@Romans:4:25 @ who was deliver ed up because of our offenses, and was rais ed because of our justification.

nkjv@Romans:5:1 @ Therefore, having been justifi ed by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@Romans:5:5 @ Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been pour ed out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

nkjv@Romans:5:6 @ For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ di ed for the ungodly.

nkjv@Romans:5:8 @ But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ di ed for us.

nkjv@Romans:5:9 @ Much more then, having now been justifi ed by His blood, we shall be sav ed from wrath through Him.

nkjv@Romans:5:10 @ For if when we were enemies we were reconcil ed to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconcil ed, we shall be sav ed by His life.

nkjv@Romans:5:11 @ And not only that, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now receiv ed the reconciliation.

nkjv@Romans:5:12 @ Therefore, just as through one man sin enter ed the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinn ed--

nkjv@Romans:5:13 @ (For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imput ed when there is no law.

nkjv@Romans:5:14 @ Nevertheless death reign ed from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinn ed according to the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come.

nkjv@Romans:5:15 @ But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man's offense many di ed, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abound ed to many.

nkjv@Romans:5:16 @ And the gift is not like that which came through the one who sinn ed. For the judgment which came from one offense result ed in condemnation, but the free gift which came from many offenses result ed in justification.

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

nkjv@Romans:5:19 @ For as by one man's disob edience many were made sinners, so also by one Man's ob edience many will be made righteous.

nkjv@Romans:5:20 @ Moreover the law enter ed that the offense might abound. But where sin abound ed, grace abound ed much more,

nkjv@Romans:5:21 @ so that as sin reign ed in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

nkjv@Romans:6:2 @ Certainly not! How shall we who di ed to sin live any longer in it?

nkjv@Romans:6:3 @ Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptiz ed into Christ Jesus were baptiz ed into His death?

nkjv@Romans:6:4 @ Therefore we were buri ed with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was rais ed from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

nkjv@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have been unit ed together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection,

nkjv@Romans:6:6 @ knowing this, that our old man was crucifi ed with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.

nkjv@Romans:6:7 @ For he who has di ed has been fre ed from sin.

nkjv@Romans:6:8 @ Now if we di ed with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him,

nkjv@Romans:6:9 @ knowing that Christ, having been rais ed from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him.

nkjv@Romans:6:10 @ For the death that He di ed, He di ed to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God.

nkjv@Romans:6:11 @ Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead inde ed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

nkjv@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one's slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of ob edience leading to righteousness?

nkjv@Romans:6:17 @ But God be thank ed that though you were slaves of sin, yet you obey ed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you were deliver ed.

nkjv@Romans:6:19 @ I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you present ed your members as slaves of uncleanness, and of lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves of righteousness for holiness.

nkjv@Romans:6:21 @ What fruit did you have then in the things of which you are now asham ed? For the end of those things is death.

nkjv@Romans:7:2 @ For the woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives. But if the husband dies, she is releas ed from the law of her husband.

nkjv@Romans:7:3 @ So then if, while her husband lives, she marries another man, she will be call ed an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law, so that she is no adulteress, though she has marri ed another man.

nkjv@Romans:7:4 @ Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be marri ed to another--to Him who was rais ed from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God.

nkjv@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were arous ed by the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death.

nkjv@Romans:7:6 @ But now we have been deliver ed from the law, having di ed to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.

nkjv@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, taking opportunity by the commandment, produc ed in me all manner of evil desire. For apart from the law sin was dead.

nkjv@Romans:7:9 @ I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin reviv ed and I di ed.

nkjv@Romans:7:11 @ For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceiv ed me, and by it kill ed me.

nkjv@Romans:7:13 @ Has then what is good become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exce edingly sinful.

nkjv@Romans:7:24 @ O wretch ed man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?

nkjv@Romans:8:3 @ For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemn ed sin in the flesh,

nkjv@Romans:8:4 @ that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfill ed in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

nkjv@Romans:8:6 @ For to be carnally mind ed is death, but to be spiritually mind ed is life and peace.

nkjv@Romans:8:7 @ Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor inde ed can be.

nkjv@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if inde ed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.

nkjv@Romans:8:11 @ But if the Spirit of Him who rais ed Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who rais ed Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

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

nkjv@Romans:8:14 @ For as many as are l ed by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

nkjv@Romans:8:15 @ For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you receiv ed the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father."

nkjv@Romans:8:17 @ and if children, then heirs--heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if inde ed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorifi ed together.

nkjv@Romans:8:18 @ For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compar ed with the glory which shall be reveal ed in us.

nkjv@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was subject ed to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subject ed it in hope;

nkjv@Romans:8:21 @ because the creation itself also will be deliver ed from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

nkjv@Romans:8:23 @ Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the r edemption of our body.

nkjv@Romans:8:24 @ For we were sav ed in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees?

nkjv@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be utter ed.

nkjv@Romans:8:28 @ And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the call ed according to His purpose.

nkjv@Romans:8:29 @ For whom He foreknew, He also pr edestin ed to be conform ed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.

nkjv@Romans:8:30 @ Moreover whom He pr edestin ed, these He also call ed; whom He call ed, these He also justifi ed; and whom He justifi ed, these He also glorifi ed.

nkjv@Romans:8:32 @ He who did not spare His own Son, but deliver ed Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

nkjv@Romans:8:34 @ Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who di ed, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.

nkjv@Romans:8:35 @ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nak edness, or peril, or sword?

nkjv@Romans:8:36 @ As it is written: "For Your sake we are kill ed all day long; We are account ed as sheep for the slaughter."

nkjv@Romans:8:37 @ Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who lov ed us.

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

nkjv@Romans:8:39 @ nor height nor depth, nor any other creat ed thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

nkjv@Romans:9:3 @ For I could wish that I myself were accurs ed from Christ for my brethren, my countrymen according to the flesh,

nkjv@Romans:9:5 @ of whom are the fathers and from whom, according to the flesh, Christ came, who is over all, the eternally bless ed God. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:9:7 @ nor are they all children because they are the se ed of Abraham; but, "In Isaac your se ed shall be call ed."

nkjv@Romans:9:8 @ That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God; but the children of the promise are count ed as the se ed.

nkjv@Romans:9:10 @ And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceiv ed by one man, even by our father Isaac

nkjv@Romans:9:13 @ As it is written, "Jacob I have lov ed, but Esau I have hat ed."

nkjv@Romans:9:17 @ For the Scripture says to the Pharaoh, "For this very purpose I have rais ed you up, that I may show My power in you, and that My name may be declar ed in all the earth."

nkjv@Romans:9:19 @ You will say to me then, "Why does He still find fault? For who has resist ed His will?"

nkjv@Romans:9:20 @ But inde ed, O man, who are you to reply against God? Will the thing form ed say to him who form ed it, "Why have you made me like this?"

nkjv@Romans:9:22 @ What if God, wanting to show His wrath and to make His power known, endur ed with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath prepar ed for destruction,

nkjv@Romans:9:23 @ and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He had prepar ed beforehand for glory,

nkjv@Romans:9:24 @ even us whom He call ed, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?

nkjv@Romans:9:25 @ As He says also in Hosea: "I will call them My people, who were not My people, And her belov ed, who was not belov ed."

nkjv@Romans:9:26 @ "And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, "You are not My people,' There they shall be call ed sons of the living God."

nkjv@Romans:9:27 @ Isaiah also cries out concerning Israel: "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, The remnant will be sav ed.

nkjv@Romans:9:29 @ And as Isaiah said before: "Unless the LORD of Sabaoth had left us a se ed, We would have become like Sodom, And we would have been made like Gomorrah."

nkjv@Romans:9:30 @ What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have attain ed to righteousness, even the righteousness of faith;

nkjv@Romans:9:31 @ but Israel, pursuing the law of righteousness, has not attain ed to the law of righteousness.

nkjv@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbl ed at that stumbling stone.

nkjv@Romans:10:1 @ Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be sav ed.

nkjv@Romans:10:2 @ For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowl edge.

nkjv@Romans:10:3 @ For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitt ed to the righteousness of God.

nkjv@Romans:10:9 @ that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has rais ed Him from the dead, you will be sav ed.

nkjv@Romans:10:13 @ For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be sav ed."

nkjv@Romans:10:14 @ How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believ ed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?

nkjv@Romans:10:16 @ But they have not all obey ed the gospel. For Isaiah says, "LORD, who has believ ed our report?"

nkjv@Romans:10:18 @ But I say, have they not heard? Yes inde ed: "Their sound has gone out to all the earth, And their words to the ends of the world."

nkjv@Romans:10:21 @ But to Israel he says: "All day long I have stretch ed out My hands To a disob edient and contrary people."

nkjv@Romans:11:1 @ I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not! For I also am an Israelite, of the se ed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

nkjv@Romans:11:3 @ "LORD, they have kill ed Your prophets and torn down Your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life"?

nkjv@Romans:11:4 @ But what does the divine response say to him? "I have reserv ed for Myself seven thousand men who have not bow ed the knee to Baal."

nkjv@Romans:11:7 @ What then? Israel has not obtain ed what it seeks; but the elect have obtain ed it, and the rest were blind ed.

nkjv@Romans:11:10 @ Let their eyes be darken ed, so that they do not see, And bow down their back always."

nkjv@Romans:11:11 @ I say then, have they stumbl ed that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall, to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles.

nkjv@Romans:11:17 @ And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were graft ed in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree,

nkjv@Romans:11:19 @ You will say then, "Branches were broken off that I might be graft ed in."

nkjv@Romans:11:23 @ And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be graft ed in, for God is able to graft them in again.

nkjv@Romans:11:24 @ For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were graft ed contrary to nature into a cultivat ed olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be graft ed into their own olive tree?

nkjv@Romans:11:25 @ For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happen ed to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.

nkjv@Romans:11:26 @ And so all Israel will be sav ed, as it is written: "The Deliverer will come out of Zion, And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;

nkjv@Romans:16:8 @ Greet Amplias, my belov ed in the Lord.

nkjv@Romans:16:9 @ Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ, and Stachys, my belov ed.

nkjv@Romans:16:12 @ Greet Tryphena and Tryphosa, who have labor ed in the Lord. Greet the belov ed Persis, who labor ed much in the Lord.

nkjv@Romans:16:17 @ Now I urge you, brethren, note those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learn ed, and avoid them.

nkjv@Romans:16:19 @ For your ob edience has become known to all. Therefore I am glad on your behalf; but I want you to be wise in what is good, and simple concerning evil.

nkjv@Romans:16:26 @ but now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for ob edience to the faith--

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, call ed to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:2 @ To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctifi ed in Christ Jesus, call ed to be saints, with all who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:5 @ that you were enrich ed in everything by Him in all utterance and all knowl edge,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:6 @ even as the testimony of Christ was confirm ed in you,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:9 @ God is faithful, by whom you were call ed into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly join ed together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been declar ed to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of Chloe's household, that there are contentions among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Is Christ divid ed? Was Paul crucifi ed for you? Or were you baptiz ed in the name of Paul?

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:14 @ I thank God that I baptiz ed none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:15 @ lest anyone should say that I had baptiz ed in my own name.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:16 @ Yes, I also baptiz ed the household of Stephanas. Besides, I do not know whether I baptiz ed any other.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being sav ed it is the power of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleas ed God through the foolishness of the message preach ed to save those who believe.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:23 @ but we preach Christ crucifi ed, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:24 @ but to those who are call ed, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:26 @ For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are call ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:28 @ and the base things of the world and the things which are despis ed God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are,

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:30 @ But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God--and righteousness and sanctification and r edemption--

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:2 @ For I determin ed not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucifi ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:7 @ But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordain ed before the ages for our glory,

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:8 @ which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucifi ed the Lord of glory.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:9 @ But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have enter ed into the heart of man The things which God has prepar ed for those who love Him."

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:10 @ But God has reveal ed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:12 @ Now we have receiv ed, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:14 @ But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discern ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:15 @ But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judg ed by no one.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:2 @ I f ed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able;

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:5 @ Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers through whom you believ ed, as the Lord gave to each one?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:6 @ I plant ed, Apollos water ed, but God gave the increase.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take he ed how he builds on it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:13 @ each one's work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be reveal ed by fire; and the fire will test each one's work, of what sort it is.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:15 @ If anyone's work is burn ed, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be sav ed, yet so as through fire.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:2 @ Moreover it is requir ed in stewards that one be found faithful.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:3 @ But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judg ed by you or by a human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:4 @ For I know of nothing against myself, yet I am not justifi ed by this; but He who judges me is the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:6 @ Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively transferr ed to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that you may learn in us not to think beyond what is written, that none of you may be puff ed up on behalf of one against the other.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who makes you differ from another? And what do you have that you did not receive? Now if you did inde ed receive it, why do you boast as if you had not receiv ed it?

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:8 @ You are already full! You are already rich! You have reign ed as kings without us--and inde ed I could wish you did reign, that we also might reign with you!

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For I think that God has display ed us, the apostles, last, as men condemn ed to death; for we have been made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men.

nkjv@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 distinguish ed, but we are dishonor ed!

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:11 @ To the present hour we both hunger and thirst, and we are poorly cloth ed, and beaten, and homeless.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:12 @ And we labor, working with our own hands. Being revil ed, we bless; being persecut ed, we endure;

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:13 @ being defam ed, we entreat. We have been made as the filth of the world, the offscouring of all things until now.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write these things to shame you, but as my belov ed children I warn you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:17 @ For this reason I have sent Timothy to you, who is my belov ed and faithful son in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways in Christ, as I teach everywhere in every church.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:18 @ Now some are puff ed up, as though I were not coming to you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord wills, and I will know, not the word of those who are puff ed up, but the power.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually report ed that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even nam ed among the Gentiles--that a man has his father's wife!

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:2 @ And you are puff ed up, and have not rather mourn ed, that he who has done this de ed might be taken away from among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:3 @ For I inde ed, as absent in body but present in spirit, have already judg ed (as though I were present) him who has so done this de ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:4 @ In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gather ed together, along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:5 @ deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be sav ed in the day of the Lord Jesus.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:7 @ Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleaven ed. For inde ed Christ, our Passover, was sacrific ed for us.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:8 @ Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wick edness, but with the unleaven ed bread of sincerity and truth.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:10 @ Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters, since then you would ne ed to go out of the world.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone nam ed a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner--not even to eat with such a person.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world will be judg ed by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If then you have judgments concerning things pertaining to this life, do you appoint those who are least esteem ed by the church to judge?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:7 @ Now therefore, it is already an utter failure for you that you go to law against one another. Why do you not rather accept wrong? Why do you not rather let yourselves be cheat ed?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceiv ed. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites,

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you. But you were wash ed, but you were sanctifi ed, but you were justifi ed in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:14 @ And God both rais ed up the Lord and will also raise us up by His power.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Or do you not know that he who is join ed to a harlot is one body with her? For "the two," He says, "shall become one flesh."

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But he who is join ed to the Lord is one spirit with Him.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But I say to the unmarri ed and to the widows: It is good for them if they remain even as I am;

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:10 @ Now to the marri ed I command, yet not I but the Lord: A wife is not to depart from her husband.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:11 @ But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarri ed or be reconcil ed to her husband. And a husband is not to divorce his wife.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband is sanctifi ed by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctifi ed by the husband; otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbeliever departs, let him depart; a brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases. But God has call ed us to peace.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:17 @ But as God has distribut ed to each one, as the Lord has call ed each one, so let him walk. And so I ordain in all the churches.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:18 @ Was anyone call ed while circumcis ed? Let him not become uncircumcis ed. Was anyone call ed while uncircumcis ed? Let him not be circumcis ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:20 @ Let each one remain in the same calling in which he was call ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you call ed while a slave? Do not be concern ed about it; but if you can be made free, rather use it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:22 @ For he who is call ed in the Lord while a slave is the Lord's fre edman. Likewise he who is call ed while free is Christ's slave.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:24 @ Brethren, let each one remain with God in that state in which he was call ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:27 @ Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be loos ed. Are you loos ed from a wife? Do not seek a wife.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:28 @ But even if you do marry, you have not sinn ed; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinn ed. Nevertheless such will have trouble in the flesh, but I would spare you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:32 @ But I want you to be without care. He who is unmarri ed cares for the things of the Lord--how he may please the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:33 @ But he who is marri ed cares about the things of the world--how he may please his wife.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:34 @ There is a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarri ed woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is marri ed cares about the things of the world--how she may please her husband.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:37 @ Nevertheless he who stands steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but has power over his own will, and has so determin ed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, does well.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:39 @ A wife is bound by law as long as her husband lives; but if her husband dies, she is at liberty to be marri ed to whom she wishes, only in the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now concerning things offer ed to idols: We know that we all have knowl edge. Knowl edge puffs up, but love edifies.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Therefore concerning the eating of things offer ed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For even if there are so-call ed gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords),

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:7 @ However, there is not in everyone that knowl edge; for some, with consciousness of the idol, until now eat it as a thing offer ed to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defil ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if anyone sees you who have knowl edge eating in an idol's temple, will not the conscience of him who is weak be embolden ed to eat those things offer ed to idols?

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:11 @ And because of your knowl edge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ di ed?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:9 @ For it is written in the law of Moses, "You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain." Is it oxen God is concern ed about?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others are partakers of this right over you, are we not even more? Nevertheless we have not us ed this right, but endure all things lest we hinder the gospel of Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:14 @ Even so the Lord has command ed that those who preach the gospel should live from the gospel.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have us ed none of these things, nor have I written these things that it should be done so to me; for it would be better for me to die than that anyone should make my boasting void.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:17 @ For if I do this willingly, I have a reward; but if against my will, I have been entrust ed with a stewardship.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preach ed to others, I myself should become disqualifi ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:1 @ Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware that all our fathers were under the cloud, all pass ed through the sea,

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:2 @ all were baptiz ed into Moses in the cloud and in the sea,

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:4 @ and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual Rock that follow ed them, and that Rock was Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:5 @ But with most of them God was not well pleas ed, for their bodies were scatter ed in the wilderness.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:6 @ Now these things became our examples, to the intent that we should not lust after evil things as they also lust ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:9 @ nor let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempt ed, and were destroy ed by serpents;

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:10 @ nor complain, as some of them also complain ed, and were destroy ed by the destroyer.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now all these things happen ed to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:12 @ Therefore let him who thinks he stands take he ed lest he fall.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempt ed beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:14 @ Therefore, my belov ed, flee from idolatry.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:19 @ What am I saying then? That an idol is anything, or what is offer ed to idols is anything?

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:23 @ All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if anyone says to you, "This was offer ed to idols," do not eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for conscience' sake; for "the earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness."

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:29 @ "Conscience," I say, not your own, but that of the other. For why is my liberty judg ed by another man's conscience?

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:33 @ just as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be sav ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:2 @ Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I deliver ed them to you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:4 @ Every man praying or prophesying, having his head cover ed, dishonors his head.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncover ed dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shav ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman is not cover ed, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shav ed, let her be cover ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:7 @ For a man inde ed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:9 @ Nor was man creat ed for the woman, but woman for the man.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Judge among yourselves. Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncover ed?

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must also be factions among you, that those who are approv ed may be recogniz ed among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I receiv ed from the Lord that which I also deliver ed to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betray ed took bread;

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:31 @ For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judg ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judg ed, we are chasten ed by the Lord, that we may not be condemn ed with the world.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:2 @ You know that you were Gentiles, carri ed away to these dumb idols, however you were l ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accurs ed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:8 @ for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowl edge through the same Spirit,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For by one Spirit we were all baptiz ed into one body--whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free--and have all been made to drink into one Spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleas ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:20 @ But now inde ed there are many members, yet one body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:21 @ And the eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no ne ed of you"; nor again the head to the feet, "I have no ne ed of you."

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:24 @ but our presentable parts have no ne ed. But God compos ed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:26 @ And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honor ed, all the members rejoice with it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God has appoint ed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:2 @ And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowl edge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And though I bestow all my goods to fe ed the poor, and though I give my body to be burn ed, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:4 @ Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puff ed up;

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:5 @ does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provok ed, thinks no evil;

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowl edge, it will vanish away.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that you prophesi ed; for he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless inde ed he interprets, that the church may receive edification.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you unless I speak to you either by revelation, by knowl edge, by prophesying, or by teaching?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:7 @ Even things without life, whether flute or harp, when they make a sound, unless they make a distinction in the sounds, how will it be known what is pip ed or play ed?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:12 @ Even so you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the edification of the church that you seek to excel.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how will he who occupies the place of the uninform ed say "Amen" at your giving of thanks, since he does not understand what you say?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:17 @ For you inde ed give thanks well, but the other is not edifi ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Therefore if the whole church comes together in one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those who are uninform ed or unbelievers, will they not say that you are out of your mind?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an uninform ed person comes in, he is convinc ed by all, he is convict ed by all.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:25 @ And thus the secrets of his heart are reveal ed; and so, falling down on his face, he will worship God and report that God is truly among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ How is it then, brethren? Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:30 @ But if anything is reveal ed to another who sits by, let the first keep silent.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:31 @ For you can all prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all may be encourag ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:34 @ Let your women keep silent in the churches, for they are not permitt ed to speak; but they are to be submissive, as the law also says.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:36 @ Or did the word of God come originally from you? Or was it you only that it reach ed?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowl edge that the things which I write to you are the commandments of the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:1 @ Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preach ed to you, which also you receiv ed and in which you stand,

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:2 @ by which also you are sav ed, if you hold fast that word which I preach ed to you--unless you believ ed in vain.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For I deliver ed to you first of all that which I also receiv ed: that Christ di ed for our sins according to the Scriptures,

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:4 @ and that He was buri ed, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:6 @ After that He was seen by over five hundr ed brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain to the present, but some have fallen asleep.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be call ed an apostle, because I persecut ed the church of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labor ed more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:11 @ Therefore, whether it was I or they, so we preach and so you believ ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ Now if Christ is preach ed that He has been rais ed from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:15 @ Yes, and we are found false witnesses of God, because we have testifi ed of God that He rais ed up Christ, whom He did not raise up--if in fact the dead do not rise.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:18 @ Then also those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perish ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:26 @ The last enemy that will be destroy ed is death.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:27 @ For "He has put all things under His feet." But when He says "all things are put under Him," it is evident that He who put all things under Him is except ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Otherwise, what will they do who are baptiz ed for the dead, if the dead do not rise at all? Why then are they baptiz ed for the dead?

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:33 @ Do not be deceiv ed: "Evil company corrupts good habits."

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowl edge of God. I speak this to your shame.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But someone will say, "How are the dead rais ed up? And with what body do they come?"

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:38 @ But God gives it a body as He pleases, and to each se ed its own body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is rais ed in incorruption.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:43 @ It is sown in dishonor, it is rais ed in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is rais ed in power.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:44 @ It is sown a natural body, it is rais ed a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:51 @ Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be chang ed--

nkjv@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 rais ed incorruptible, and we shall be chang ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:54 @ So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: "Death is swallow ed up in victory."

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:58 @ Therefore, my belov ed brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:5 @ Now I will come to you when I pass through Mac edonia (for I am passing through Mac edonia).

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:9 @ For a great and effective door has open ed to me, and there are many adversaries.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:12 @ Now concerning our brother Apollos, I strongly urg ed him to come to you with the brethren, but he was quite unwilling to come at this time; however, he will come when he has a convenient time.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:15 @ I urge you, brethren--you know the household of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have devot ed themselves to the ministry of the saints--

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:17 @ I am glad about the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus, for what was lacking on your part they suppli ed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:18 @ For they refresh ed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowl edge such men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:22 @ If anyone does not love the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be accurs ed. O Lord, come!

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:3 @ Bless ed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:4 @ who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comfort ed by God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:6 @ Now if we are afflict ed, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comfort ed, it is for your consolation and salvation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of our trouble which came to us in Asia: that we were burden ed beyond measure, above strength, so that we despair ed even of life.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:10 @ who deliver ed us from so great a death, and does deliver us; in whom we trust that He will still deliver us,

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:11 @ you also helping together in prayer for us, that thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf for the gift grant ed to us through many.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience that we conduct ed ourselves in the world in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom but by the grace of God, and more abundantly toward you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:15 @ And in this confidence I intend ed to come to you before, that you might have a second benefit--

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:16 @ to pass by way of you to Mac edonia, to come again from Mac edonia to you, and be help ed by you on my way to Judea.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preach ed among you by us--by me, Silvanus, and Timothy--was not Yes and No, but in Him was Yes.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:21 @ Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anoint ed us is God,

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:22 @ who also has seal ed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:1 @ But I determin ed this within myself, that I would not come again to you in sorrow.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote to you, with many tears, not that you should be griev ed, but that you might know the love which I have so abundantly for you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if anyone has caus ed grief, he has not griev ed me, but all of you to some extent--not to be too severe.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:6 @ This punishment which was inflict ed by the majority is sufficient for such a man,

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:7 @ so that, on the contrary, you ought rather to forgive and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one be swallow ed up with too much sorrow.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For to this end I also wrote, that I might put you to the test, whether you are ob edient in all things.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:10 @ Now whom you forgive anything, I also forgive. For if inde ed I have forgiven anything, I have forgiven that one for your sakes in the presence of Christ,

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:12 @ Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was open ed to me by the Lord,

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:13 @ I had no rest in my spirit, because I did not find Titus my brother; but taking my leave of them, I depart ed for Mac edonia.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:14 @ Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowl edge in every place.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being sav ed and among those who are perishing.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we are not, as so many, p eddling the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as from God, we speak in the sight of God in Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or do we ne ed, as some others, epistles of commendation to you or letters of commendation from you?

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:3 @ clearly you are an epistle of Christ, minister ed by us, written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of flesh, that is, of the heart.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:7 @ But if the ministry of death, written and engrav ed on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory was passing away,

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:9 @ For if the ministry of condemnation had glory, the ministry of righteousness exce eds much more in glory.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:14 @ But their minds were blind ed. For until this day the same veil remains unlift ed in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:18 @ But we all, with unveil ed face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transform ed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:1 @ Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we have receiv ed mercy, we do not lose heart.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:2 @ But we have renounc ed the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:3 @ But even if our gospel is veil ed, it is veil ed to those who are perishing,

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:4 @ whose minds the god of this age has blind ed, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:6 @ For it is the God who command ed light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowl edge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:8 @ We are hard-press ed on every side, yet not crush ed; we are perplex ed, but not in despair;

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:9 @ persecut ed, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroy ed--

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:10 @ always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifest ed in our body.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For we who live are always deliver ed to death for Jesus' sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifest ed in our mortal flesh.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:13 @ And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, "I believ ed and therefore I spoke," we also believe and therefore speak,

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:14 @ knowing that He who rais ed up the Lord Jesus will also raise us up with Jesus, and will present us with you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renew ed day by day.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:17 @ For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exce eding and eternal weight of glory,

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:1 @ For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroy ed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:2 @ For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be cloth ed with our habitation which is from heaven,

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:3 @ if inde ed, having been cloth ed, we shall not be found nak ed.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For we who are in this tent groan, being burden ed, not because we want to be uncloth ed, but further cloth ed, that mortality may be swallow ed up by life.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:5 @ Now He who has prepar ed us for this very thing is God, who also has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:8 @ We are confident, yes, well pleas ed rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:14 @ For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One di ed for all, then all di ed;

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:15 @ and He di ed for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who di ed for them and rose again.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:17 @ Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have pass ed away; behold, all things have become new.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:18 @ Now all things are of God, who has reconcil ed us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation,

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:19 @ that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committ ed to us the word of reconciliation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:20 @ Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconcil ed to God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:2 @ For He says: "In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have help ed you." Behold, now is the accept ed time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:3 @ We give no offense in anything, that our ministry may not be blam ed.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:4 @ But in all things we commend ourselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in ne eds, in distresses,

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:6 @ by purity, by knowl edge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by sincere love,

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:9 @ as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold we live; as chasten ed, and yet not kill ed;

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:12 @ You are not restrict ed by us, but you are restrict ed by your own affections.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:14 @ Do not be unequally yok ed together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:1 @ Therefore, having these promises, belov ed, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:2 @ Open your hearts to us. We have wrong ed no one, we have corrupt ed no one, we have cheat ed no one.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:4 @ Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my boasting on your behalf. I am fill ed with comfort. I am exce edingly joyful in all our tribulation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For inde ed, when we came to Mac edonia, our bodies had no rest, but we were troubl ed on every side. Outside were conflicts, inside were fears.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:6 @ Nevertheless God, who comforts the downcast, comfort ed us by the coming of Titus,

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not only by his coming, but also by the consolation with which he was comfort ed in you, when he told us of your earnest desire, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoic ed even more.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:9 @ Now I rejoice, not that you were made sorry, but that your sorrow l ed to repentance. For you were made sorry in a godly manner, that you might suffer loss from us in nothing.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, not to be regrett ed; but the sorrow of the world produces death.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For observe this very thing, that you sorrow ed in a godly manner: What diligence it produc ed in you, what clearing of yourselves, what indignation, what fear, what vehement desire, what zeal, what vindication! In all things you prov ed yourselves to be clear in this matter.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:12 @ Therefore, although I wrote to you, I did not do it for the sake of him who had done the wrong, nor for the sake of him who suffer ed wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear to you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:13 @ Therefore we have been comfort ed in your comfort. And we rejoic ed exce edingly more for the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refresh ed by you all.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if in anything I have boast ed to him about you, I am not asham ed. But as we spoke all things to you in truth, even so our boasting to Titus was found true.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his affections are greater for you as he remembers the ob edience of you all, how with fear and trembling you receiv ed him.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:1 @ Moreover, brethren, we make known to you the grace of God bestow ed on the churches of Mac edonia:

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:2 @ that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abound ed in the riches of their liberality.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:5 @ And not only as we had hop ed, but they first gave themselves to the Lord, and then to us by the will of God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:6 @ So we urg ed Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also complete this grace in you as well.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:7 @ But as you abound in everything--in faith, in speech, in knowl edge, in all diligence, and in your love for us--see that you abound in this grace also.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if there is first a willing mind, it is accept ed according to what one has, and not according to what he does not have.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:13 @ For I do not mean that others should be eas ed and you burden ed;

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:15 @ As it is written, "He who gather ed much had nothing left over, and he who gather ed little had no lack."

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For he not only accept ed the exhortation, but being more diligent, he went to you of his own accord.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only that, but who was also chosen by the churches to travel with us with this gift, which is administer ed by us to the glory of the Lord Himself and to show your ready mind,

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:20 @ avoiding this: that anyone should blame us in this lavish gift which is administer ed by us--

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And we have sent with them our brother whom we have often prov ed diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, because of the great confidence which we have in you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:23 @ If anyone inquires about Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker concerning you. Or if our brethren are inquir ed about, they are messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:2 @ for I know your willingness, about which I boast of you to the Mac edonians, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal has stirr ed up the majority.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:4 @ lest if some Mac edonians come with me and find you unprepar ed, we (not to mention you!) should be asham ed of this confident boasting.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:5 @ Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren to go to you ahead of time, and prepare your generous gift beforehand, which you had previously promis ed, that it may be ready as a matter of generosity and not as a grudging obligation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:9 @ As it is written: "He has dispers ed abroad, He has given to the poor; His righteousness endures forever."

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:10 @ Now may He who supplies se ed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the se ed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness,

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:11 @ while you are enrich ed in everything for all liberality, which causes thanksgiving through us to God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:12 @ For the administration of this service not only supplies the ne eds of the saints, but also is abounding through many thanksgivings to God,

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:13 @ while, through the proof of this ministry, they glorify God for the ob edience of your confession to the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal sharing with them and all men,

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:14 @ and by their prayer for you, who long for you because of the exce eding grace of God in you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:2 @ But I beg you that when I am present I may not be bold with that confidence by which I intend to be bold against some, who think of us as if we walk ed according to the flesh.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:5 @ casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowl edge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the ob edience of Christ,

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:6 @ and being ready to punish all disob edience when your ob edience is fulfill ed.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:7 @ Do you look at things according to the outward appearance? If anyone is convinc ed in himself that he is Christ's, let him again consider this in himself, that just as he is Christ's, even so we are Christ's.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For even if I should boast somewhat more about our authority, which the Lord gave us for edification and not for your destruction, I shall not be asham ed--

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:11 @ Let such a person consider this, that what we are in word by letters when we are absent, such we will also be in de ed when we are present.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:13 @ We, however, will not boast beyond measure, but within the limits of the sphere which God appoint ed us--a sphere which especially includes you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ not boasting of things beyond measure, that is, in other men's labors, but having hope, that as your faith is increas ed, we shall be greatly enlarg ed by you in our sphere,

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:18 @ For not he who commends himself is approv ed, but whom the Lord commends.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:1 @ Oh, that you would bear with me in a little folly--and inde ed you do bear with me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:2 @ For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betroth ed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:3 @ But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceiv ed Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupt ed from the simplicity that is in Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:4 @ For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preach ed, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not receiv ed, or a different gospel which you have not accept ed--you may well put up with it!

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:6 @ Even though I am untrain ed in speech, yet I am not in knowl edge. But we have been thoroughly manifest ed among you in all things.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Did I commit sin in humbling myself that you might be exalt ed, because I preach ed the gospel of God to you free of charge?

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I robb ed other churches, taking wages from them to minister to you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was present with you, and in ne ed, I was a burden to no one, for what I lack ed the brethren who came from Mac edonia suppli ed. And in everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so I will keep myself.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:12 @ But what I do, I will also continue to do, that I may cut off the opportunity from those who desire an opportunity to be regard ed just as we are in the things of which they boast.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:22 @ Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the se ed of Abraham? So am I.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:24 @ From the Jews five times I receiv ed forty stripes minus one.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:25 @ Three times I was beaten with rods; once I was ston ed; three times I was shipwreck ed; a night and a day I have been in the deep;

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:27 @ in weariness and toil, in sleeplessness often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nak edness--

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:31 @ The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is bless ed forever, knows that I am not lying.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:33 @ but I was let down in a basket through a window in the wall, and escap ed from his hands.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:7 @ And lest I should be exalt ed above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalt ed above measure.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:8 @ Concerning this thing I plead ed with the Lord three times that it might depart from me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:10 @ Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in ne eds, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have become a fool in boasting; you have compell ed me. For I ought to have been commend ed by you; for in nothing was I behind the most eminent apostles, though I am nothing.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:12 @ Truly the signs of an apostle were accomplish ed among you with all perseverance, in signs and wonders and mighty de eds.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:15 @ And I will very gladly spend and be spent for your souls; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I am lov ed.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I urg ed Titus, and sent our brother with him. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not walk in the same spirit? Did we not walk in the same steps?

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Again, do you think that we excuse ourselves to you? We speak before God in Christ. But we do all things, belov ed, for your edification.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:21 @ lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and I shall mourn for many who have sinn ed before and have not repent ed of the uncleanness, fornication, and lewdness which they have practic ed.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:1 @ This will be the third time I am coming to you. "By the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be establish ed."

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I have told you before, and foretell as if I were present the second time, and now being absent I write to those who have sinn ed before, and to all the rest, that if I come again I will not spare--

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For though He was crucifi ed in weakness, yet He lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in Him, but we shall live with Him by the power of God toward you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?--unless inde ed you are disqualifi ed.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:6 @ But I trust that you will know that we are not disqualifi ed.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:7 @ Now I pray to God that you do no evil, not that we should appear approv ed, but that you should do what is honorable, though we may seem disqualifi ed.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:10 @ Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the authority which the Lord has given me for edification and not for destruction.

nkjv@Galatians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle (not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father who rais ed Him from the dead),

nkjv@Galatians:1:6 @ I marvel that you are turning away so soon from Him who call ed you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel,

nkjv@Galatians:1:8 @ But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preach ed to you, let him be accurs ed.

nkjv@Galatians:1:9 @ As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have receiv ed, let him be accurs ed.

nkjv@Galatians:1:10 @ For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleas ed men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:1:11 @ But I make known to you, brethren, that the gospel which was preach ed by me is not according to man.

nkjv@Galatians:1:12 @ For I neither receiv ed it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through the revelation of Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former conduct in Judaism, how I persecut ed the church of God beyond measure and tri ed to destroy it.

nkjv@Galatians:1:14 @ And I advanc ed in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries in my own nation, being more exce edingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.

nkjv@Galatians:1:15 @ But when it pleas ed God, who separat ed me from my mother's womb and call ed me through His grace,

nkjv@Galatians:1:16 @ to reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not imm ediately confer with flesh and blood,

nkjv@Galatians:1:17 @ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia, and return ed again to Damascus.

nkjv@Galatians:1:18 @ Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and remain ed with him fifteen days.

nkjv@Galatians:1:20 @ (Now concerning the things which I write to you, inde ed, before God, I do not lie.)

nkjv@Galatians:1:23 @ But they were hearing only, "He who formerly persecut ed us now preaches the faith which he once tri ed to destroy."

nkjv@Galatians:1:24 @ And they glorifi ed God in me.

nkjv@Galatians:2:2 @ And I went up by revelation, and communicat ed to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who were of reputation, lest by any means I might run, or had run, in vain.

nkjv@Galatians:2:3 @ Yet not even Titus who was with me, being a Greek, was compell ed to be circumcis ed.

nkjv@Galatians:2:4 @ And this occurr ed because of false brethren secretly brought in (who came in by stealth to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage),

nkjv@Galatians:2:6 @ But from those who seem ed to be something--whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God shows personal favoritism to no man--for those who seem ed to be something add ed nothing to me.

nkjv@Galatians:2:7 @ But on the contrary, when they saw that the gospel for the uncircumcis ed had been committ ed to me, as the gospel for the circumcis ed was to Peter

nkjv@Galatians:2:8 @ (for He who work ed effectively in Peter for the apostleship to the circumcis ed also work ed effectively in me toward the Gentiles),

nkjv@Galatians:2:9 @ and when James, Cephas, and John, who seem ed to be pillars, perceiv ed the grace that had been given to me, they gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcis ed.

nkjv@Galatians:2:10 @ They desir ed only that we should remember the poor, the very thing which I also was eager to do.

nkjv@Galatians:2:11 @ Now when Peter had come to Antioch, I withstood him to his face, because he was to be blam ed;

nkjv@Galatians:2:12 @ for before certain men came from James, he would eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he withdrew and separat ed himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.

nkjv@Galatians:2:13 @ And the rest of the Jews also play ed the hypocrite with him, so that even Barnabas was carri ed away with their hypocrisy.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus. For you also suffer ed the same things from your own countrymen, just as they did from the Judeans,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ that you also aspire to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we command ed you,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For if we believe that Jesus di ed and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.

nkjv@Hebrews:1:12 @ Like a cloak You will fold them up, And they will be chang ed. But You are the same, And Your years will not fail."

nkjv@Hebrews:2:1 @ Therefore we must give the more earnest he ed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away.

nkjv@Hebrews:2:2 @ For if the word spoken through angels prov ed steadfast, and every transgression and disob edience receiv ed a just reward,

nkjv@Hebrews:2:3 @ how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirm ed to us by those who heard Him,

nkjv@Hebrews:2:9 @ But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crown ed with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone.

nkjv@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctifi ed are all of one, for which reason He is not asham ed to call them brethren,

nkjv@Hebrews:2:14 @ Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shar ed in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,

nkjv@Hebrews:2:16 @ For inde ed He does not give aid to angels, but He does give aid to the se ed of Abraham.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:3 @ For this One has been count ed worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as He who built the house has more honor than the house.

nkjv@Hebrews:3:17 @ Now with whom was He angry forty years? Was it not with those who sinn ed, whose corpses fell in the wilderness?

nkjv@Hebrews:4:2 @ For inde ed the gospel was preach ed to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mix ed with faith in those who heard it.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we who have believ ed do enter that rest, as He has said: "So I swore in My wrath, "They shall not enter My rest,"' although the works were finish ed from the foundation of the world.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:4 @ For He has spoken in a certain place of the seventh day in this way: "And God rest ed on the seventh day from all His works";

nkjv@Hebrews:4:6 @ Since therefore it remains that some must enter it, and those to whom it was first preach ed did not enter because of disob edience,

nkjv@Hebrews:4:10 @ For he who has enter ed His rest has himself also ceas ed from his works as God did from His.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:11 @ Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disob edience.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:12 @ For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two- edg ed sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:13 @ And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are nak ed and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:14 @ Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has pass ed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempt ed as we are, yet without sin.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of ne ed.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest taken from among men is appoint ed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:3 @ Because of this he is requir ed as for the people, so also for himself, to offer sacrifices for sins.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:4 @ And no man takes this honor to himself, but he who is call ed by God, just as Aaron was.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:6 @ As He also says in another place: "You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchiz edek";

nkjv@Hebrews:5:7 @ who, in the days of His flesh, when He had offer ed up prayers and supplications, with vehement cries and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death, and was heard because of His godly fear,

nkjv@Hebrews:5:8 @ though He was a Son, yet He learn ed ob edience by the things which He suffer ed.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:9 @ And having been perfect ed, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him,

nkjv@Hebrews:5:10 @ call ed by God as High Priest "according to the order of Melchiz edek,"

nkjv@Hebrews:5:12 @ For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you ne ed someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to ne ed milk and not solid food.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:13 @ For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskill ed in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:14 @ But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercis ed to discern both good and evil.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:4 @ For it is impossible for those who were once enlighten ed, and have tast ed the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:5 @ and have tast ed the good word of God and the powers of the age to come,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:7 @ For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivat ed, receives blessing from God;

nkjv@Hebrews:6:8 @ but if it bears thorns and briers, it is reject ed and near to being curs ed, whose end is to be burn ed.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:9 @ But, belov ed, we are confident of better things concerning you, yes, things that accompany salvation, though we speak in this manner.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have minister ed to the saints, and do minister.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:15 @ And so, after he had patiently endur ed, he obtain ed the promise.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:16 @ For men inde ed swear by the greater, and an oath for confirmation is for them an end of all dispute.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:17 @ Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirm ed it by an oath,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:18 @ that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we might have strong consolation, who have fl ed for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:20 @ where the forerunner has enter ed for us, even Jesus, having become High Priest forever according to the order of Melchiz edek.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:1 @ For this Melchiz edek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and bless ed him,

nkjv@Hebrews:7:2 @ to whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all, first being translat ed "king of righteousness," and then also king of Salem, meaning "king of peace,"

nkjv@Hebrews:7:5 @ And inde ed those who are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to receive tithes from the people according to the law, that is, from their brethren, though they have come from the loins of Abraham;

nkjv@Hebrews:7:6 @ but he whose genealogy is not deriv ed from them receiv ed tithes from Abraham and bless ed him who had the promises.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:7 @ Now beyond all contradiction the lesser is bless ed by the better.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:8 @ Here mortal men receive tithes, but there he receives them, of whom it is witness ed that he lives.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:10 @ for he was still in the loins of his father when Melchiz edek met him.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:11 @ Therefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people receiv ed the law), what further ne ed was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchiz edek, and not be call ed according to the order of Aaron?

nkjv@Hebrews:7:12 @ For the priesthood being chang ed, of necessity there is also a change of the law.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:13 @ For He of whom these things are spoken belongs to another tribe, from which no man has officiat ed at the altar.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:15 @ And it is yet far more evident if, in the likeness of Melchiz edek, there arises another priest

nkjv@Hebrews:7:17 @ For He testifies: "You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchiz edek."

nkjv@Hebrews:7:21 @ (for they have become priests without an oath, but He with an oath by Him who said to Him: "The LORD has sworn And will not relent, "You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchiz edek"'),

nkjv@Hebrews:7:23 @ Also there were many priests, because they were prevent ed by death from continuing.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:26 @ For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who is holy, harmless, undefil ed, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens;

nkjv@Hebrews:7:27 @ who does not ne ed daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the people's, for this He did once for all when He offer ed up Himself.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:28 @ For the law appoints as high priests men who have weakness, but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints the Son who has been perfect ed forever.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:1 @ Now this is the main point of the things we are saying: We have such a High Priest, who is seat ed at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,

nkjv@Hebrews:8:2 @ a Minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle which the Lord erect ed, and not man.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appoint ed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this One also have something to offer.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:5 @ who serve the copy and shadow of the heavenly things, as Moses was divinely instruct ed when he was about to make the tabernacle. For He said, "See that you make all things according to the pattern shown you on the mountain."

nkjv@Hebrews:8:6 @ But now He has obtain ed a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also M ediator of a better covenant, which was establish ed on better promises.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:9 @ not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they did not continue in My covenant, and I disregard ed them, says the LORD.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:12 @ For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless de eds I will remember no more."

nkjv@Hebrews:9:1 @ Then inde ed, even the first covenant had ordinances of divine service and the earthly sanctuary.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:2 @ For a tabernacle was prepar ed: the first part, in which was the lampstand, the table, and the showbread, which is call ed the sanctuary;

nkjv@Hebrews:9:3 @ and behind the second veil, the part of the tabernacle which is call ed the Holiest of All,

nkjv@Hebrews:9:4 @ which had the golden censer and the ark of the covenant overlaid on all sides with gold, in which were the golden pot that had the manna, Aaron's rod that budd ed, and the tablets of the covenant;

nkjv@Hebrews:9:6 @ Now when these things had been thus prepar ed, the priests always went into the first part of the tabernacle, performing the services.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:7 @ But into the second part the high priest went alone once a year, not without blood, which he offer ed for himself and for the people's sins committ ed in ignorance;

nkjv@Hebrews:9:9 @ It was symbolic for the present time in which both gifts and sacrifices are offer ed which cannot make him who perform ed the service perfect in regard to the conscience--

nkjv@Hebrews:9:10 @ concern ed only with foods and drinks, various washings, and fleshly ordinances impos ed until the time of reformation.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:12 @ Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He enter ed the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtain ed eternal r edemption.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:14 @ how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offer ed Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

nkjv@Hebrews:9:15 @ And for this reason He is the M ediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the r edemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are call ed may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:18 @ Therefore not even the first covenant was d edicat ed without blood.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:19 @ For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water, scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkl ed both the book itself and all the people,

nkjv@Hebrews:9:20 @ saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God has command ed you."

nkjv@Hebrews:9:21 @ Then likewise he sprinkl ed with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:22 @ And according to the law almost all things are purifi ed with blood, and without sh edding of blood there is no remission.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:23 @ Therefore it was necessary that the copies of the things in the heavens should be purifi ed with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ has not enter ed the holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;

nkjv@Hebrews:9:26 @ He then would have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now, once at the end of the ages, He has appear ed to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:27 @ And as it is appoint ed for men to die once, but after this the judgment,

nkjv@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ was offer ed once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:2 @ For then would they not have ceas ed to be offer ed? For the worshipers, once purifi ed, would have had no more consciousness of sins.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:5 @ Therefore, when He came into the world, He said: "Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, But a body You have prepar ed for Me.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:8 @ Previously saying, "Sacrifice and offering, burnt offerings, and offerings for sin You did not desire, nor had pleasure in them" (which are offer ed according to the law),

nkjv@Hebrews:10:10 @ By that will we have been sanctifi ed through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:11 @ And every priest stands ministering daily and offering repeat edly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:12 @ But this Man, after He had offer ed one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God,

nkjv@Hebrews:10:14 @ For by one offering He has perfect ed forever those who are being sanctifi ed.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:17 @ then He adds, "Their sins and their lawless de eds I will remember no more."

nkjv@Hebrews:10:20 @ by a new and living way which He consecrat ed for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh,

nkjv@Hebrews:10:22 @ let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkl ed from an evil conscience and our bodies wash ed with pure water.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:23 @ Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promis ed is faithful.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:26 @ For if we sin willfully after we have receiv ed the knowl edge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,

nkjv@Hebrews:10:28 @ Anyone who has reject ed Moses' law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:29 @ Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampl ed the Son of God underfoot, count ed the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctifi ed a common thing, and insult ed the Spirit of grace?

nkjv@Hebrews:10:32 @ But recall the former days in which, after you were illuminat ed, you endur ed a great struggle with sufferings:

nkjv@Hebrews:10:33 @ partly while you were made a spectacle both by reproaches and tribulations, and partly while you became companions of those who were so treat ed;

nkjv@Hebrews:10:34 @ for you had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully accept ed the plundering of your goods, knowing that you have a better and an enduring possession for yourselves in heaven.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:36 @ For you have ne ed of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise:

nkjv@Hebrews:11:1 @ Now faith is the substance of things hop ed for, the evidence of things not seen.

nkjv@James:1:24 @ for he observes himself, goes away, and imm ediately forgets what kind of man he was.

nkjv@James:1:25 @ But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be bless ed in what he does.

nkjv@James:1:27 @ Pure and undefil ed religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspott ed from the world.

nkjv@James:2:5 @ Listen, my belov ed brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promis ed to those who love Him?

nkjv@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonor ed the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you and drag you into the courts?

nkjv@James:2:7 @ Do they not blaspheme that noble name by which you are call ed?

nkjv@James:2:9 @ but if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convict ed by the law as transgressors.

nkjv@James:2:12 @ So speak and so do as those who will be judg ed by the law of liberty.

nkjv@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister is nak ed and destitute of daily food,

nkjv@James:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, "Depart in peace, be warm ed and fill ed," but you do not give them the things which are ne ed ed for the body, what does it profit?

nkjv@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justifi ed by works when he offer ed Isaac his son on the altar?

nkjv@James:2:23 @ And the Scripture was fulfill ed which says, "Abraham believ ed God, and it was account ed to him for righteousness." And he was call ed the friend of God.

nkjv@James:2:24 @ You see then that a man is justifi ed by works, and not by faith only.

nkjv@James:2:25 @ Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justifi ed by works when she receiv ed the messengers and sent them out another way?

nkjv@James:3:3 @ Inde ed, we put bits in horses' mouths that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body.

nkjv@James:3:4 @ Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turn ed by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires.

nkjv@James:3:7 @ For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tam ed and has been tam ed by mankind.

nkjv@James:3:10 @ Out of the same mouth proce ed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.

nkjv@James:4:8 @ Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-mind ed.

nkjv@James:4:9 @ Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turn ed to mourning and your joy to gloom.

nkjv@James:5:2 @ Your riches are corrupt ed, and your garments are moth-eaten.

nkjv@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver are corrod ed, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heap ed up treasure in the last days.

nkjv@James:5:4 @ Inde ed the wages of the laborers who mow ed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the reapers have reach ed the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.

nkjv@James:5:5 @ You have liv ed on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fatten ed your hearts as in a day of slaughter.

nkjv@James:5:6 @ You have condemn ed, you have murder ed the just; he does not resist you.

nkjv@James:5:9 @ Do not grumble against one another, brethren, lest you be condemn ed. Behold, the Judge is standing at the door!

nkjv@James:5:11 @ Inde ed we count them bless ed who endure. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and seen the end intend ed by the Lord--that the Lord is very compassionate and merciful.

nkjv@James:5:15 @ And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committ ed sins, he will be forgiven.

nkjv@James:5:16 @ Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be heal ed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.

nkjv@James:5:17 @ Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he pray ed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.

nkjv@James:5:18 @ And he pray ed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produc ed its fruit.

nkjv@1Peter:1:2 @ elect according to the foreknowl edge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, for ob edience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multipli ed.

nkjv@1Peter:1:7 @ that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is test ed by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,

nkjv@1Peter:1:10 @ Of this salvation the prophets have inquir ed and search ed carefully, who prophesi ed of the grace that would come to you,

nkjv@1Peter:1:11 @ searching what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ who was in them was indicating when He testifi ed beforehand the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow.

nkjv@1Peter:1:12 @ To them it was reveal ed that, not to themselves, but to us they were ministering the things which now have been report ed to you through those who have preach ed the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven--things which angels desire to look into.

nkjv@1Peter:1:14 @ as ob edient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance;

nkjv@1Peter:1:15 @ but as He who call ed you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct,

nkjv@1Peter:1:20 @ He inde ed was foreordain ed before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you

nkjv@1Peter:1:21 @ who through Him believe in God, who rais ed Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

nkjv@1Peter:1:22 @ Since you have purifi ed your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart,

nkjv@1Peter:1:23 @ having been born again, not of corruptible se ed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever,

nkjv@1Peter:1:25 @ But the word of the LORD endures forever." Now this is the word which by the gospel was preach ed to you.

nkjv@1Peter:2:3 @ if inde ed you have tast ed that the Lord is gracious.

nkjv@1Peter:2:4 @ Coming to Him as to a living stone, reject ed inde ed by men, but chosen by God and precious,

nkjv@1Peter:2:6 @ Therefore it is also contain ed in the Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Zion A chief cornerstone, elect, precious, And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame."

nkjv@1Peter:2:7 @ Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disob edient, "The stone which the builders reject ed Has become the chief cornerstone,"

nkjv@1Peter:2:8 @ and "A stone of stumbling And a rock of offense." They stumble, being disob edient to the word, to which they also were appoint ed.

nkjv@1Peter:2:9 @ But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who call ed you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

nkjv@1Peter:2:10 @ who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtain ed mercy but now have obtain ed mercy.

nkjv@1Peter:2:11 @ Belov ed, I beg you as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,

nkjv@1Peter:2:20 @ For what cr edit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God.

nkjv@1Peter:2:21 @ For to this you were call ed, because Christ also suffer ed for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:

nkjv@1Peter:2:22 @ "Who committ ed no sin, Nor was deceit found in His mouth";

nkjv@1Peter:2:23 @ who, when He was revil ed, did not revile in return; when He suffer ed, He did not threaten, but committ ed Himself to Him who judges righteously;

nkjv@1Peter:2:24 @ who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having di ed to sins, might live for righteousness--by whose stripes you were heal ed.

nkjv@1Peter:2:25 @ For you were like sheep going astray, but have now return ed to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

nkjv@1Peter:3:2 @ when they observe your chaste conduct accompani ed by fear.

nkjv@1Peter:3:5 @ For in this manner, in former times, the holy women who trust ed in God also adorn ed themselves, being submissive to their own husbands,

nkjv@1Peter:3:6 @ as Sarah obey ed Abraham, calling him lord, whose daughters you are if you do good and are not afraid with any terror.

nkjv@1Peter:3:7 @ Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hinder ed.

nkjv@1Peter:3:8 @ Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderheart ed, be courteous;

nkjv@1Peter:3:9 @ not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were call ed to this, that you may inherit a blessing.

nkjv@1Peter:3:14 @ But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you are bless ed. "And do not be afraid of their threats, nor be troubl ed."

nkjv@1Peter:3:16 @ having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be asham ed.

nkjv@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ also suffer ed once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit,

nkjv@1Peter:3:19 @ by whom also He went and preach ed to the spirits in prison,

nkjv@1Peter:3:20 @ who formerly were disob edient, when once the Divine longsuffering wait ed in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepar ed, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were sav ed through water.

nkjv@1Peter:4:1 @ Therefore, since Christ suffer ed for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffer ed in the flesh has ceas ed from sin,

nkjv@1Peter:4:3 @ For we have spent enough of our past lifetime in doing the will of the Gentiles--when we walk ed in lewdness, lusts, drunkenness, revelries, drinking parties, and abominable idolatries.

nkjv@1Peter:4:6 @ For this reason the gospel was preach ed also to those who are dead, that they might be judg ed according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit.

nkjv@1Peter:4:10 @ As each one has receiv ed a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

nkjv@1Peter:4:11 @ If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorifi ed through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@1Peter:4:12 @ Belov ed, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happen ed to you;

nkjv@1Peter:4:13 @ but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when His glory is reveal ed, you may also be glad with exce eding joy.

nkjv@1Peter:4:14 @ If you are reproach ed for the name of Christ, bless ed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He is blasphem ed, but on your part He is glorifi ed.

nkjv@1Peter:4:16 @ Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be asham ed, but let him glorify God in this matter.

nkjv@1Peter:4:18 @ Now "If the righteous one is scarcely sav ed, Where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?"

nkjv@1Peter:5:1 @ The elders who are among you I exhort, I who am a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that will be reveal ed:

nkjv@1Peter:5:3 @ nor as being lords over those entrust ed to you, but being examples to the flock;

nkjv@1Peter:5:5 @ Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be cloth ed with humility, for "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble."

nkjv@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienc ed by your brotherhood in the world.

nkjv@1Peter:5:10 @ But may the God of all grace, who call ed us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffer ed a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

nkjv@2Peter:1:1 @ Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtain ed like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:

nkjv@2Peter:1:2 @ Grace and peace be multipli ed to you in the knowl edge of God and of Jesus our Lord,

nkjv@2Peter:1:3 @ as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowl edge of Him who call ed us by glory and virtue,

nkjv@2Peter:1:4 @ by which have been given to us exce edingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escap ed the corruption that is in the world through lust.

nkjv@2Peter:1:5 @ But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowl edge,

nkjv@2Peter:1:6 @ to knowl edge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness,

nkjv@2Peter:1:8 @ For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowl edge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@2Peter:1:9 @ For he who lacks these things is shortsight ed, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleans ed from his old sins.

nkjv@2Peter:1:11 @ for so an entrance will be suppli ed to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

nkjv@2Peter:1:12 @ For this reason I will not be negligent to remind you always of these things, though you know and are establish ed in the present truth.

nkjv@2Peter:1:14 @ knowing that shortly I must put off my tent, just as our Lord Jesus Christ show ed me.

nkjv@2Peter:1:16 @ For we did not follow cunningly devis ed fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty.

nkjv@2Peter:1:17 @ For He receiv ed from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: "This is My belov ed Son, in whom I am well pleas ed."

nkjv@2Peter:1:19 @ And so we have the prophetic word confirm ed, which you do well to he ed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts;

nkjv@2Peter:1:21 @ for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were mov ed by the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@2Peter:2:2 @ And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphem ed.

nkjv@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare the angels who sinn ed, but cast them down to hell and deliver ed them into chains of darkness, to be reserv ed for judgment;

nkjv@2Peter:2:5 @ and did not spare the ancient world, but sav ed Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly;

nkjv@2Peter:2:6 @ and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemn ed them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly;

nkjv@2Peter:2:7 @ and deliver ed righteous Lot, who was oppress ed by the filthy conduct of the wick ed

nkjv@2Peter:2:8 @ (for that righteous man, dwelling among them, torment ed his righteous soul from day to day by seeing and hearing their lawless de eds)--

nkjv@2Peter:2:10 @ and especially those who walk according to the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority. They are presumptuous, self-will ed. They are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries,

nkjv@2Peter:2:12 @ But these, like natural brute beasts made to be caught and destroy ed, speak evil of the things they do not understand, and will utterly perish in their own corruption,

nkjv@2Peter:2:14 @ having eyes full of adultery and that cannot cease from sin, enticing unstable souls. They have a heart train ed in covetous practices, and are accurs ed children.

nkjv@2Peter:2:15 @ They have forsaken the right way and gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who lov ed the wages of unrighteousness;

nkjv@2Peter:2:16 @ but he was rebuk ed for his iniquity: a dumb donkey speaking with a man's voice restrain ed the madness of the prophet.

nkjv@2Peter:2:17 @ These are wells without water, clouds carri ed by a tempest, for whom is reserv ed the blackness of darkness forever.

nkjv@2Peter:2:18 @ For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who have actually escap ed from those who live in error.

nkjv@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, after they have escap ed the pollutions of the world through the knowl edge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangl ed in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning.

nkjv@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment deliver ed to them.

nkjv@2Peter:2:22 @ But it has happen ed to them according to the true proverb: "A dog returns to his own vomit," and, "a sow, having wash ed, to her wallowing in the mire."

nkjv@2Peter:3:1 @ Belov ed, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder),

nkjv@2Peter:3:6 @ by which the world that then exist ed perish ed, being flood ed with water.

nkjv@2Peter:3:7 @ But the heavens and the earth which are now preserv ed by the same word, are reserv ed for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

nkjv@2Peter:3:8 @ But, belov ed, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

nkjv@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burn ed up.

nkjv@2Peter:3:11 @ Therefore, since all these things will be dissolv ed, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness,

nkjv@2Peter:3:12 @ looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolv ed, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?

nkjv@2Peter:3:14 @ Therefore, belov ed, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless;

nkjv@2Peter:3:15 @ and consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation--as also our belov ed brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you,

nkjv@2Peter:3:17 @ You therefore, belov ed, since you know this beforehand, beware lest you also fall from your own steadfastness, being l ed away with the error of the wick ed;

nkjv@1John:1:10 @ If we say that we have not sinn ed, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.

nkjv@1John:2:5 @ But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfect ed in him. By this we know that we are in Him.

nkjv@1John:2:6 @ He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walk ed.

nkjv@1John:2:11 @ But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blind ed his eyes.

nkjv@1John:2:13 @ I write to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, Because you have overcome the wick ed one. I write to you, little children, Because you have known the Father.

nkjv@1John:2:14 @ I have written to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, Because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, And you have overcome the wick ed one.

nkjv@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continu ed with us; but they went out that they might be made manifest, that none of them were of us.

nkjv@1John:2:23 @ Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowl edges the Son has the Father also.

nkjv@1John:2:25 @ And this is the promise that He has promis ed us--eternal life.

nkjv@1John:2:27 @ But the anointing which you have receiv ed from Him abides in you, and you do not ne ed that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.

nkjv@1John:2:28 @ And now, little children, abide in Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be asham ed before Him at His coming.

nkjv@1John:3:1 @ Behold what manner of love the Father has bestow ed on us, that we should be call ed children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

nkjv@1John:3:2 @ Belov ed, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been reveal ed what we shall be, but we know that when He is reveal ed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.

nkjv@1John:3:5 @ And you know that He was manifest ed to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin.

nkjv@1John:3:8 @ He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinn ed from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifest ed, that He might destroy the works of the devil.

nkjv@1John:3:9 @ Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His se ed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

nkjv@1John:3:12 @ not as Cain who was of the wick ed one and murder ed his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his works were evil and his brother's righteous.

nkjv@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have pass ed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death.

nkjv@1John:3:17 @ But whoever has this world's goods, and sees his brother in ne ed, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him?

nkjv@1John:3:18 @ My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in de ed and in truth.

nkjv@1John:3:21 @ Belov ed, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence toward God.

nkjv@1John:4:1 @ Belov ed, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

nkjv@1John:4:7 @ Belov ed, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.

nkjv@1John:4:9 @ In this the love of God was manifest ed toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.

nkjv@1John:4:10 @ In this is love, not that we lov ed God, but that He lov ed us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

nkjv@1John:4:11 @ Belov ed, if God so lov ed us, we also ought to love one another.

nkjv@1John:4:12 @ No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfect ed in us.

nkjv@1John:4:16 @ And we have known and believ ed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.
