rsv@Matthew:5:18 @ For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the law until all is accomplished.

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

rsv@Matthew:5:26 @ truly, I say to you, you will never get out till you have paid the last penny.

rsv@Matthew:5:28 @ But I say to you that every one who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

rsv@Matthew:5:32 @ But I say to you that every one who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastity, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

rsv@Matthew:5:34 @ But I say to you, Do not swear at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God,

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

rsv@Matthew:5:39 @ But I say to you, Do not resist one who is evil. But if any one strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also;

rsv@Matthew:5:44 @ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:6:31 @ Therefore do not be anxious, saying, `What shall we eat?' or `What shall we drink?' or `What shall we wear?'

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:7:28 @ And when Jesus finished these sayings, the crowds were astonished at his teaching,

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

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

rsv@Matthew:8:4 @ And Jesus said to him, "See that you say nothing to any one; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a proof to the people."

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:8:10 @ When Jesus heard him, he marveled, and said to those who followed him, "Truly, I say to you, not even in Israel have I found such faith.

rsv@Matthew:8:25 @ And they went and woke him, saying, "Save, Lord; we are perishing."

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

rsv@Matthew:9:5 @ For which is easier, to say, `Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, `Rise and walk'?

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

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

rsv@Matthew:9:29 @ Then he touched their eyes, saying, "According to your faith be it done to you."

rsv@Matthew:9:33 @ And when the demon had been cast out, the dumb man spoke; and the crowds marveled, saying, "Never was anything like this seen in Israel."

rsv@Matthew:10:7 @ And preach as you go, saying, `The kingdom of heaven is at hand.'

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

rsv@Matthew:10:19 @ When they deliver you up, do not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say; for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour;

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

rsv@Matthew:10:42 @ And whoever gives to one of these little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he shall not lose his reward."

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:13:3 @ And he told them many things in parables, saying: "A sower went out to sow.

rsv@Matthew:13:14 @ With them indeed is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah which says: `You shall indeed hear but never understand, and you shall indeed see but never perceive.

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

rsv@Matthew:13:24 @ Another parable he put before them, saying, "The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field;

rsv@Matthew:13:31 @ Another parable he put before them, saying, "The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and sowed in his field;

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:14:33 @ And those in the boat worshiped him, saying, "Truly you are the Son of God."

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

rsv@Matthew:15:12 @ Then the disciples came and said to him, "Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?"

rsv@Matthew:15:23 @ But he did not answer her a word. And his disciples came and begged him, saying, "Send her away, for she is crying after us."

rsv@Matthew:15:25 @ But she came and knelt before him, saying, "Lord, help me."

rsv@Matthew:16:2 @ He answered them, "When it is evening, you say, `It will be fair weather; for the sky is red.'

rsv@Matthew:16:7 @ And they discussed it among themselves, saying, "We brought no bread."

rsv@Matthew:16:13 @ Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesare'a Philip'pi, he asked his disciples, "Who do men say that the Son of man is?"

rsv@Matthew:16:14 @ And they said, "Some say John the Baptist, others say Eli'jah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets."

rsv@Matthew:16:15 @ He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?"

rsv@Matthew:16:22 @ And Peter took him and began to rebuke him, saying, "God forbid, Lord! This shall never happen to you."

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

rsv@Matthew:17:7 @ But Jesus came and touched them, saying, "Rise, and have no fear."

rsv@Matthew:17:10 @ And the disciples asked him, "Then why do the scribes say that first Eli'jah must come?"

rsv@Matthew:17:20 @ He said to them, "Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, `Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you."

rsv@Matthew:17:24 @ He said, "Yes." And when he came home, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, "What do you think, Simon? From whom do kings of the earth take toll or tribute? From their sons or from others?"

rsv@Matthew:18:1 @ At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?"

rsv@Matthew:18:3 @ and said, "Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

rsv@Matthew:18:12 @ And if he finds it, truly, I say to you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that never went astray.

rsv@Matthew:18:17 @ Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

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

rsv@Matthew:18:21 @ Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you seven times, but seventy times seven.

rsv@Matthew:19:1 @ Now when Jesus had finished these sayings, he went away from Galilee and entered the region of Judea beyond the Jordan;

rsv@Matthew:19:9 @ And I say to you: whoever divorces his wife, except for unchastity, and marries another, commits adultery."

rsv@Matthew:19:11 @ But he said to them, "Not all men can receive this saying, but only those to whom it is given.

rsv@Matthew:19:16 @ And behold, one came up to him, saying, "Teacher, what good deed must I do, to have eternal life?"

rsv@Matthew:19:23 @ And Jesus said to his disciples, "Truly, I say to you, it will be hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.

rsv@Matthew:19:25 @ When the disciples heard this they were greatly astonished, saying, "Who then can be saved?"

rsv@Matthew:19:28 @ Jesus said to them, "Truly, I say to you, in the new world, when the Son of man shall sit on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

rsv@Matthew:20:12 @ saying, `These last worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.'

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

rsv@Matthew:21:2 @ saying to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find an ass tied, and a colt with her; untie them and bring them to me.

rsv@Matthew:21:3 @ If any one says anything to you, you shall say, `The Lord has need of them,' and he will send them immediately."

rsv@Matthew:21:4 @ This took place to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet, saying,

rsv@Matthew:21:10 @ And when he entered Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, "Who is this?"

rsv@Matthew:21:16 @ and they said to him, "Do you hear what these are saying?" And Jesus said to them, "Yes; have you never read, `Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast brought perfect praise'?"

rsv@Matthew:21:20 @ When the disciples saw it they marveled, saying, "How did the fig tree wither at once?"

rsv@Matthew:21:21 @ And Jesus answered them, "Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and never doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, `Be taken up and cast into the sea,' it will be done.

rsv@Matthew:21:25 @ The baptism of John, whence was it? From heaven or from men?" And they argued with one another, "If we say, `From heaven,' he will say to us, `Why then did you not believe him?'

rsv@Matthew:21:26 @ But if we say, `From men,' we are afraid of the multitude; for all hold that John was a prophet."

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

rsv@Matthew:21:37 @ Afterward he sent his son to them, saying, `They will respect my son.'

rsv@Matthew:22:1 @ And again Jesus spoke to them in parables, saying,

rsv@Matthew:22:4 @ Again he sent other servants, saying, `Tell those who are invited, Behold, I have made ready my dinner, my oxen and my fat calves are killed, and everything is ready; come to the marriage feast.'

rsv@Matthew:22:16 @ And they sent their disciples to him, along with the Hero'di-ans, saying, "Teacher, we know that you are true, and teach the way of God truthfully, and care for no man; for you do not regard the position of men.

rsv@Matthew:22:23 @ The same day Sad'ducees came to him, who say that there is no resurrection; and they asked him a question,

rsv@Matthew:22:24 @ saying, "Teacher, Moses said, `If a man dies, having no children, his brother must marry the widow, and raise up children for his brother.'

rsv@Matthew:22:42 @ saying, "What do you think of the Christ? Whose son is he?" They said to him, "The son of David."

rsv@Matthew:22:43 @ He said to them, "How is it then that David, inspired by the Spirit, calls him Lord, saying,

rsv@Matthew:23:15 @ "Woe to you, blind guides, who say, `If any one swears by the temple, it is nothing; but if any one swears by the gold of the temple, he is bound by his oath.'

rsv@Matthew:23:17 @ And you say, `If any one swears by the altar, it is nothing; but if any one swears by the gift that is on the altar, he is bound by his oath.'

rsv@Matthew:23:29 @ saying, `If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.'

rsv@Matthew:23:35 @ Truly, I say to you, all this will come upon this generation.

rsv@Matthew:23:38 @ For I tell you, you will not see me again, until you say, `Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"

rsv@Matthew:24:2 @ But he answered them, "You see all these, do you not? Truly, I say to you, there will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down."

rsv@Matthew:24:3 @ As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will this be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the close of the age?"

rsv@Matthew:24:5 @ For many will come in my name, saying, `I am the Christ,' and they will lead many astray.

rsv@Matthew:24:23 @ Then if any one says to you, `Lo, here is the Christ!' or `There he is!' do not believe it.

rsv@Matthew:24:26 @ So, if they say to you, `Lo, he is in the wilderness,' do not go out; if they say, `Lo, he is in the inner rooms,' do not believe it.

rsv@Matthew:24:34 @ Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away till all these things take place.

rsv@Matthew:24:47 @ Truly, I say to you, he will set him over all his possessions.

rsv@Matthew:24:48 @ But if that wicked servant says to himself, `My master is delayed,'

rsv@Matthew:25:11 @ Afterward the other maidens came also, saying, `Lord, lord, open to us.'

rsv@Matthew:25:12 @ But he replied, `Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.'

rsv@Matthew:25:20 @ And he who had received the five talents came forward, bringing five talents more, saying, `Master, you delivered to me five talents; here I have made five talents more.'

rsv@Matthew:25:22 @ And he also who had the two talents came forward, saying, `Master, you delivered to me two talents; here I have made two talents more.'

rsv@Matthew:25:24 @ He also who had received the one talent came forward, saying, `Master, I knew you to be a hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not winnow;

rsv@Matthew:25:34 @ Then the King will say to those at his right hand, `Come, O blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world;

rsv@Matthew:25:40 @ And the King will answer them, `Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me.'

rsv@Matthew:25:41 @ Then he will say to those at his left hand, `Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels;

rsv@Matthew:25:45 @ Then he will answer them, `Truly, I say to you, as you did it not to one of the least of these, you did it not to me.'

rsv@Matthew:26:1 @ When Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said to his disciples,

rsv@Matthew:26:8 @ But when the disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, "Why this waste?

rsv@Matthew:26:13 @ Truly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what she has done will be told in memory of her."

rsv@Matthew:26:17 @ Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Where will you have us prepare for you to eat the passover?"

rsv@Matthew:26:18 @ He said, "Go into the city to a certain one, and say to him, `The Teacher says, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at your house with my disciples.'"

rsv@Matthew:26:21 @ and as they were eating, he said, "Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me."

rsv@Matthew:26:22 @ And they were very sorrowful, and began to say to him one after another, "Is it I, Lord?"

rsv@Matthew:26:27 @ And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, "Drink of it, all of you;

rsv@Matthew:26:34 @ Jesus said to him, "Truly, I say to you, this very night, before the cock crows, you will deny me three times."

rsv@Matthew:26:44 @ So, leaving them again, he went away and prayed for the third time, saying the same words.

rsv@Matthew:26:48 @ Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, "The one I shall kiss is the man; seize him."

rsv@Matthew:26:68 @ saying, "Prophesy to us, you Christ! Who is it that struck you?"

rsv@Matthew:26:70 @ But he denied it before them all, saying, "I do not know what you mean."

rsv@Matthew:26:75 @ And Peter remembered the saying of Jesus, "Before the cock crows, you will deny me three times." And he went out and wept bitterly.

rsv@Matthew:27:4 @ saying, "I have sinned in betraying innocent blood." They said, "What is that to us? See to it yourself."

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

rsv@Matthew:27:24 @ So when Pilate saw that he was gaining nothing, but rather that a riot was beginning, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, "I am innocent of this man's blood; see to it yourselves."

rsv@Matthew:27:29 @ and plaiting a crown of thorns they put it on his head, and put a reed in his right hand. And kneeling before him they mocked him, saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!"

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

rsv@Matthew:27:41 @ So also the chief priests, with the scribes and elders, mocked him, saying,

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:1:27 @ And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? A new teaching! With authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him."

rsv@Mark:1:44 @ and said to him, "See that you say nothing to any one; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, for a proof to the people."

rsv@Mark:2:9 @ Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, `Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, `Rise, take up your pallet and walk'?

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

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

rsv@Mark:3:21 @ And when his family heard it, they went out to seize him, for people were saying, "He is beside himself."

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:6:2 @ And on the sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue; and many who heard him were astonished, saying, "Where did this man get all this? What is the wisdom given to him? What mighty works are wrought by his hands!

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

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

rsv@Mark:7:28 @ And he said to her, "For this saying you may go your way; the demon has left your daughter."

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

rsv@Mark:8:12 @ And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and said, "Why does this generation seek a sign? Truly, I say to you, no sign shall be given to this generation."

rsv@Mark:8:15 @ And he cautioned them, saying, "Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod."

rsv@Mark:8:16 @ And they discussed it with one another, saying, "We have no bread."

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

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

rsv@Mark:8:28 @ And they told him, "John the Baptist; and others say, Eli'jah; and others one of the prophets."

rsv@Mark:8:29 @ And he asked them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered him, "You are the Christ."

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:9:32 @ But they did not understand the saying, and they were afraid to ask him.

rsv@Mark:9:41 @ For truly, I say to you, whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you bear the name of Christ, will by no means lose his reward.

rsv@Mark:10:15 @ Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it."

rsv@Mark:10:22 @ At that saying his countenance fell, and he went away sorrowful; for he had great possessions.

rsv@Mark:10:28 @ Peter began to say to him, "Lo, we have left everything and followed you."

rsv@Mark:10:29 @ Jesus said, "Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands, for my sake and for the gospel,

rsv@Galatians:3:8 @ And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, "In you shall all the nations be blessed."

rsv@Galatians:3:16 @ Now the promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring. It does not say, "And to offsprings," referring to many; but, referring to one, "And to your offspring," which is Christ.

rsv@Hebrews:8:5 @ They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary; for when Moses was about to erect the tent, he was instructed by God, saying, "See that you make everything according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain."

rsv@Hebrews:8:8 @ For he finds fault with them when he says: "The days will come, says the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah;
