nasb@Matthew:1:1 @The record of the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah, the son of David, the son of Abraham-

nasb@Matthew:1:11 @Josiah became the father of Jeconiah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.

nasb@Matthew:1:12 @After the deportation to Babylon- Jeconiah became the father of Shealtiel, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel.

nasb@Matthew:1:16 @Jacob was the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, by whom Jesus was born, who is called the Messiah.

nasb@Matthew:1:17 @So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; from David to the deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the deportation to Babylon to the Messiah, fourteen generations.

nasb@Matthew:1:18 @Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows- when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.

nasb@Matthew:1:21" @She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins."

nasb@Matthew:1:23" @ BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD AND SHALL BEAR A SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL," which translated means, " GOD WITH US."

nasb@Matthew:2:1 @but kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus.

nasb@Matthew:2:2" @Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him."

nasb@Matthew:2:4 @Gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Messiah was to be born.

nasb@Matthew:2:6 @' AND YOU, BETHLEHEM, LAND OF JUDAH, ARE BY NO MEANS LEAST AMONG THE LEADERS OF JUDAH; FOR OUT OF YOU SHALL COME FORTH A RULER WHO WILL SHEPHERD MY PEOPLE ISRAEL.'"

nasb@Matthew:2:7 @Then Herod secretly called the magi and determined from them the exact time the star appeared.

nasb@Matthew:2:8 @And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, "Go and search carefully for the Child; and when you have found Him, report to me, so that I too may come and worship Him."

nasb@Matthew:2:9 @After hearing the king, they went their way; and the star, which they had seen in the east, went on before them until it came and stood over the place where the Child was.

nasb@Matthew:2:16 @Then when Herod saw that he had been tricked by the magi, he became very enraged, and sent and slew all the male children who were in Bethlehem and all its vicinity, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the magi.

nasb@Matthew:2:21 @So Joseph got up, took the Child and His mother, and came into the land of Israel.

nasb@Matthew:2:23 @and came and lived in a city called Nazareth. This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophets- "He shall be called a Nazarene."

nasb@Matthew:2:3 @Now in those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, saying,

nasb@Matthew:2:4 @Now John himself had a garment of camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist; and his food was locusts and wild honey.

nasb@Matthew:2:7 @But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he said to them, "You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

nasb@Matthew:2:11" @As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

nasb@Matthew:2:14 @But John tried to prevent Him, saying, "I have need to be baptized by You, and do You come to me?"

nasb@Matthew:2:15 @But Jesus answering said to him, "Permit it at this time; for in this way it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he permitted Him.

nasb@Matthew:2:16 @After being baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and lighting on Him,

nasb@Matthew:3:2 @And after He had fasted forty days and forty nights, He then became hungry.

nasb@Matthew:3:3 @And the tempter came and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread."

nasb@Matthew:3:9 @and he said to Him, " All these things I will give You, if You fall down and worship me."

nasb@Matthew:3:11 @Then the devil left Him; and behold, angels came and began to minister to Him.

nasb@Matthew:3:13 @and leaving Nazareth, He came and settled in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali.

nasb@Matthew:3:17 @From that time Jesus began to preach and say, " Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

nasb@Matthew:3:18 @Now as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon who was called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

nasb@Matthew:3:19 @And He said to them, "Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men."

nasb@Matthew:3:20 @Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.

nasb@Matthew:3:21 @Going on from there He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and He called them.

nasb@Matthew:3:22 @Immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him.

nasb@Matthew:4:1 @When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain; and after He sat down, His disciples came to Him.

nasb@Matthew:4:7" @Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.

nasb@Matthew:4:11" @Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.

nasb@Matthew:4:12" @Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

nasb@Matthew:4:13" @You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men.

nasb@Matthew:4:16" @Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

nasb@Matthew:4:17" @Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill.

nasb@Matthew:4:19" @Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

nasb@Matthew:4:22" @But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, ' You good-for-nothing,' shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever says, 'You fool,' shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell.

nasb@Matthew:4:23" @Therefore if you are presenting your offering at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you,

nasb@Matthew:4:24 @leave your offering there before the altar and go; first be reconciled to your brother, and then come and present your offering.

nasb@Matthew:4:26" @Truly I say to you, you will not come out of there until you have paid up the last cent.

nasb@Matthew:4:37" @But let your statement be, 'Yes, yes' or 'No, no'; anything beyond these is of evil.

nasb@Matthew:4:46" @For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?

nasb@Matthew:4:47" @If you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?

nasb@Matthew:4:6" @Beware of practicing your righteousness before men to be noticed by them; otherwise you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven.

nasb@Matthew:4:2" @So when you give to the poor, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be honored by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full.

nasb@Matthew:4:5" @When you pray, you are not to be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners so that they may be seen by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full.

nasb@Matthew:4:7" @And when you are praying, do not use meaningless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they suppose that they will be heard for their many words.

nasb@Matthew:4:9" @ Pray, then, in this way- 'Our Father who is in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.

nasb@Matthew:4:10 @' Your kingdom come. Your will be done, On earth as it is in heaven.

nasb@Matthew:4:13 @'And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil. [For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.]'

nasb@Matthew:4:16" @ Whenever you fast, do not put on a gloomy face as the hypocrites do, for they neglect their appearance so that they will be noticed by men when they are fasting. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full.

nasb@Matthew:4:18 @so that your fasting will not be noticed by men, but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.

nasb@Matthew:4:2" @For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you.

nasb@Matthew:4:4" @ Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' and behold, the log is in your own eye?

nasb@Matthew:4:12" @In everything, therefore, treat people the same way you want them to treat you, for this is the Law and the Prophets.

nasb@Matthew:4:15" @Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves.

nasb@Matthew:4:21" @ Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.

nasb@Matthew:4:22" @ Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?'

nasb@Matthew:4:23" @And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.'

nasb@Matthew:4:25" @And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock.

nasb@Matthew:4:27" @The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell--and great was its fall."

nasb@Matthew:5:1 @When Jesus came down from the mountain, large crowds followed Him.

nasb@Matthew:5:2 @And a leper came to Him and bowed down before Him, and said, "Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean."

nasb@Matthew:5:3 @Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him, saying, "I am willing; be cleansed." And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

nasb@Matthew:5:5 @And when Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, imploring Him,

nasb@Matthew:5:6 @and saying, "Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, fearfully tormented."

nasb@Matthew:5:7 @Jesus said to him, "I will come and heal him."

nasb@Matthew:5:8 @But the centurion said, "Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just say the word, and my servant will be healed.

nasb@Matthew:5:9" @For I also am a man under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, 'Go!' and he goes, and to another, 'Come!' and he comes, and to my slave, 'Do this!' and he does it."

nasb@Matthew:5:11" @I say to you that many will come from east and west, and recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven;

nasb@Matthew:5:13 @And Jesus said to the centurion, "Go; it shall be done for you as you have believed." And the servant was healed that very moment.

nasb@Matthew:5:14 @When Jesus came into Peter's home, He saw his mother-in-law lying sick in bed with a fever.

nasb@Matthew:5:16 @When evening came, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were ill.

nasb@Matthew:5:19 @Then a scribe came and said to Him, "Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go."

nasb@Matthew:5:21 @Another of the disciples said to Him, "Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father."

nasb@Matthew:5:22 @But Jesus said to him, " Follow Me, and allow the dead to bury their own dead."

nasb@Matthew:5:25 @And they came to Him and woke Him, saying, " Save us, Lord; we are perishing!"

nasb@Matthew:5:26 @He said to them, "Why are you afraid, you men of little faith?" Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it became perfectly calm.

nasb@Matthew:5:27 @The men were amazed, and said, "What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?"

nasb@Matthew:5:28 @When He came to the other side into the country of the Gadarenes, two men who were demon-possessed met Him as they were coming out of the tombs. They were so extremely violent that no one could pass by that way.

nasb@Matthew:5:29 @And they cried out, saying, " What business do we have with each other, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?"

nasb@Matthew:5:32 @And He said to them, "Go!" And they came out and went into the swine, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and perished in the waters.

nasb@Matthew:5:33 @The herdsmen ran away, and went to the city and reported everything, including what had happened to the demoniacs.

nasb@Matthew:5:34 @And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they implored Him to leave their region.

nasb@Matthew:6:1 @Getting into a boat, Jesus crossed over the sea and came to His own city.

nasb@Matthew:6:3 @And some of the scribes said to themselves, "This fellow blasphemes."

nasb@Matthew:6:6" @But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins"--then He said to the paralytic, "Get up, pick up your bed and go home."

nasb@Matthew:6:7 @And he got up and went home.

nasb@Matthew:6:8 @But when the crowds saw this, they were awestruck, and glorified God, who had given such authority to men.

nasb@Matthew:6:9 @As Jesus went on from there, He saw a man called Matthew, sitting in the tax collector's booth; and He said to him, " Follow Me!" And he got up and followed Him.

nasb@Matthew:6:10 @Then it happened that as Jesus was reclining at the table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and were dining with Jesus and His disciples.

nasb@Matthew:6:13" @But go and learn what this means- ' I DESIRE COMPASSION, AND NOT SACRIFICE,' for I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

nasb@Matthew:6:14 @Then the disciples of John came to Him, asking, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast, but Your disciples do not fast?"

nasb@Matthew:6:15 @And Jesus said to them, "The attendants of the bridegroom cannot mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them, can they? But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast.

nasb@Matthew:6:16" @But no one puts a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; for the patch pulls away from the garment, and a worse tear results.

nasb@Matthew:6:18 @While He was saying these things to them, a synagogue official came and bowed down before Him, and said, "My daughter has just died; but come and lay Your hand on her, and she will live."

nasb@Matthew:6:20 @And a woman who had been suffering from a hemorrhage for twelve years, came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His cloak;

nasb@Matthew:6:21 @for she was saying to herself, "If I only touch His garment, I will get well."

nasb@Matthew:6:23 @When Jesus came into the official's house, and saw the flute-players and the crowd in noisy disorder,

nasb@Matthew:6:27 @As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out, "Have mercy on us, Son of David!"

nasb@Matthew:6:28 @When He entered the house, the blind men came up to Him, and Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They said to Him, "Yes, Lord."

nasb@Matthew:7:2 @Now the names of the twelve apostles are these- The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; and James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;

nasb@Matthew:7:3 @Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;

nasb@Matthew:7:15" @Truly I say to you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.

nasb@Matthew:7:17" @But beware of men, for they will hand you over to the courts and scourge you in their synagogues;

nasb@Matthew:7:22" @ You will be hated by all because of My name, but it is the one who has endured to the end who will be saved.

nasb@Matthew:7:23" @But whenever they persecute you in one city, flee to the next; for truly I say to you, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man comes.

nasb@Matthew:7:25" @It is enough for the disciple that he become like his teacher, and the slave like his master. If they have called the head of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign the members of his household!

nasb@Matthew:7:32" @Therefore everyone who confesses Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father who is in heaven.

nasb@Matthew:7:33" @But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father who is in heaven.

nasb@Matthew:7:34" @ Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.

nasb@Matthew:7:35" @For I came to SET A MAN AGAINST HIS FATHER, AND A DAUGHTER AGAINST HER MOTHER, AND A DAUGHTER-IN-LAW AGAINST HER MOTHER-IN-LAW;

nasb@Matthew:7:36 @and A MAN'S ENEMIES WILL BE THE MEMBERS OF HIS HOUSEHOLD.

nasb@Matthew:7:37" @ He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.

nasb@Matthew:7:38" @And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.

nasb@Matthew:7:40" @ He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.

nasb@Matthew:7:41" @ He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.

nasb@Matthew:7:42" @And whoever in the name of a disciple gives to one of these little ones even a cup of cold water to drink, truly I say to you, he shall not lose his reward."

nasb@Matthew:8:3 @and said to Him, "Are You the Expected One, or shall we look for someone else?"

nasb@Matthew:8:5 @the BLIND RECEIVE SIGHT and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the POOR HAVE THE GOSPEL PREACHED TO THEM.

nasb@Matthew:8:6" @And blessed is he who does not take offense at Me."

nasb@Matthew:8:7 @As these men were going away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John, "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

nasb@Matthew:8:10" @This is the one about whom it is written, ' BEHOLD, I SEND MY MESSENGER AHEAD OF YOU, WHO WILL PREPARE YOUR WAY BEFORE YOU.'

nasb@Matthew:8:11" @Truly I say to you, among those born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptist! Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

nasb@Matthew:8:12" @ From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and violent men take it by force.

nasb@Matthew:8:14" @And if you are willing to accept it, John himself is Elijah who was to come.

nasb@Matthew:8:18" @For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ' He has a demon!'

nasb@Matthew:8:19" @The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' Yet wisdom is vindicated by her deeds."

nasb@Matthew:8:22" @Nevertheless I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment than for you.

nasb@Matthew:8:24" @Nevertheless I say to you that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for you."

nasb@Matthew:8:25 @At that time Jesus said, "I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to infants.

nasb@Matthew:8:27" @ All things have been handed over to Me by My Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father; nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.

nasb@Matthew:8:28" @ Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.

nasb@Matthew:8:29" @Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS.

nasb@Matthew:9:1 @At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath, and His disciples became hungry and began to pick the heads of grain and eat.

nasb@Matthew:9:3 @But He said to them, "Have you not read what David did when he became hungry, he and his companions,

nasb@Matthew:9:6" @But I say to you that something greater than the temple is here.

nasb@Matthew:9:7" @But if you had known what this means, ' I DESIRE COMPASSION, AND NOT A SACRIFICE,' you would not have condemned the innocent.

nasb@Matthew:9:21" @ AND IN HIS NAME THE GENTILES WILL HOPE."

nasb@Matthew:9:28" @But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

nasb@Matthew:9:30" @ He who is not with Me is against Me; and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

nasb@Matthew:9:32" @ Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.

nasb@Matthew:9:36" @But I tell you that every careless word that people speak, they shall give an accounting for it in the day of judgment.

nasb@Matthew:9:38 @Then some of the scribes and Pharisees said to Him, "Teacher, we want to see a sign from You."

nasb@Matthew:9:41" @ The men of Nineveh will stand up with this generation at the judgment, and will condemn it because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.

nasb@Matthew:9:42" @ The Queen of the South will rise up with this generation at the judgment and will condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, something greater than Solomon is here.

nasb@Matthew:9:44" @Then it says, 'I will return to my house from which I came'; and when it comes, it finds it unoccupied, swept, and put in order.

nasb@Matthew:9:45" @Then it goes and takes along with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first. That is the way it will also be with this evil generation."

nasb@Matthew:9:47 @Someone said to Him, "Behold, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside seeking to speak to You."

nasb@Matthew:10:4 @and as he sowed, some seeds fell beside the road, and the birds came and ate them up.

nasb@Matthew:10:5" @Others fell on the rocky places, where they did not have much soil; and immediately they sprang up, because they had no depth of soil.

nasb@Matthew:10:7" @Others fell among the thorns, and the thorns came up and choked them out.

nasb@Matthew:10:8" @And others fell on the good soil and yielded a crop, some a hundredfold, some sixty, and some thirty.

nasb@Matthew:10:10 @And the disciples came and said to Him, "Why do You speak to them in parables?"

nasb@Matthew:10:15 @FOR THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE HAS BECOME DULL, WITH THEIR EARS THEY SCARCELY HEAR, AND THEY HAVE CLOSED THEIR EYES, OTHERWISE THEY WOULD SEE WITH THEIR EYES, HEAR WITH THEIR EARS, AND UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEART AND RETURN, AND I WOULD HEAL THEM.'

nasb@Matthew:10:17" @For truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

nasb@Matthew:10:19" @When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is the one on whom seed was sown beside the road.

nasb@Matthew:10:20" @The one on whom seed was sown on the rocky places, this is the man who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy;

nasb@Matthew:10:21 @yet he has no firm root in himself, but is only temporary, and when affliction or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he falls away.

nasb@Matthew:10:22" @And the one on whom seed was sown among the thorns, this is the man who hears the word, and the worry of the world and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

nasb@Matthew:10:23" @And the one on whom seed was sown on the good soil, this is the man who hears the word and understands it; who indeed bears fruit and brings forth, some a hundredfold, some sixty, and some thirty."

nasb@Matthew:10:25" @But while his men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went away.

nasb@Matthew:10:26" @But when the wheat sprouted and bore grain, then the tares became evident also.

nasb@Matthew:10:27" @The slaves of the landowner came and said to him, 'Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?'

nasb@Matthew:10:30 @'Allow both to grow together until the harvest; and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, "First gather up the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them up; but gather the wheat into my barn."'"

nasb@Matthew:10:32 @and this is smaller than all other seeds, but when it is full grown, it is larger than the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that THE BIRDS OF THE AIR come and NEST IN ITS BRANCHES."

nasb@Matthew:10:36 @Then He left the crowds and went into the house. And His disciples came to Him and said, " Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field."

nasb@Matthew:10:45" @Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking fine pearls,

nasb@Matthew:10:49" @So it will be at the end of the age; the angels will come forth and take out the wicked from among the righteous,

nasb@Matthew:10:52 @And Jesus said to them, "Therefore every scribe who has become a disciple of the kingdom of heaven is like a head of a household, who brings out of his treasure things new and old."

nasb@Matthew:10:54 @He came to His hometown and began teaching them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, "Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?

nasb@Matthew:10:55" @Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not His mother called Mary, and His brothers, James and Joseph and Simon and Judas?

nasb@Matthew:10:57 @And they took offense at Him. But Jesus said to them, " A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his own household."

nasb@Matthew:11:1 @At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the news about Jesus,

nasb@Matthew:11:6 @But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod,

nasb@Matthew:11:8 @Having been prompted by her mother, she said, "Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist."

nasb@Matthew:11:15 @When it was evening, the disciples came to Him and said, "This place is desolate and the hour is already late; so send the crowds away, that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves."

nasb@Matthew:11:16 @But Jesus said to them, "They do not need to go away; you give them something to eat!"

nasb@Matthew:11:18 @And He said, "Bring them here to Me."

nasb@Matthew:11:21 @There were about five thousand men who ate, besides women and children.

nasb@Matthew:11:22 @Immediately He made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of Him to the other side, while He sent the crowds away.

nasb@Matthew:11:25 @And in the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea.

nasb@Matthew:11:27 @But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, " Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid."

nasb@Matthew:11:28 @Peter said to Him, "Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water."

nasb@Matthew:11:29 @And He said, "Come!" And Peter got out of the boat, and walked on the water and came toward Jesus.

nasb@Matthew:11:30 @But seeing the wind, he became frightened, and beginning to sink, he cried out, "Lord, save me!"

nasb@Matthew:11:31 @Immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and took hold of him, and said to him, " You of little faith, why did you doubt?"

nasb@Matthew:11:34 @When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret.

nasb@Matthew:11:35 @And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent word into all that surrounding district and brought to Him all who were sick;

nasb@Matthew:11:15 @Then some Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and said,

nasb@Matthew:11:3 @And He answered and said to them, "Why do you yourselves transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?

nasb@Matthew:11:8 @' THIS PEOPLE HONORS ME WITH THEIR LIPS, BUT THEIR HEART IS FAR AWAY FROM ME.

nasb@Matthew:11:9 @'BUT IN VAIN DO THEY WORSHIP ME, TEACHING AS DOCTRINES THE PRECEPTS OF MEN.'"

nasb@Matthew:11:12 @Then the disciples came and said to Him, "Do You know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this statement?"

nasb@Matthew:11:18" @But the things that proceed out of the mouth come from the heart, and those defile the man.

nasb@Matthew:11:19" @ For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, slanders.

nasb@Matthew:11:22 @And a Canaanite woman from that region came out and began to cry out, saying, "Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David; my daughter is cruelly demon-possessed."

nasb@Matthew:11:23 @But He did not answer her a word. And His disciples came and implored Him, saying, "Send her away, because she keeps shouting at us."

nasb@Matthew:11:25 @But she came and began to bow down before Him, saying, "Lord, help me!"

nasb@Matthew:11:30 @And large crowds came to Him, bringing with them those who were lame, crippled, blind, mute, and many others, and they laid them down at His feet; and He healed them.

nasb@Matthew:11:31 @So the crowd marveled as they saw the mute speaking, the crippled restored, and the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel.

nasb@Matthew:11:32 @And Jesus called His disciples to Him, and said, " I feel compassion for the people, because they have remained with Me now three days and have nothing to eat; and I do not want to send them away hungry, for they might faint on the way."

nasb@Matthew:11:38 @And those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.

nasb@Matthew:11:39 @And sending away the crowds, Jesus got into the boat and came to the region of Magadan.

nasb@Matthew:12:1 @The Pharisees and Sadducees came up, and testing Jesus, they asked Him to show them a sign from heaven.

nasb@Matthew:12:3" @And in the morning, 'There will be a storm today, for the sky is red and threatening.' Do you know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but cannot discern the signs of the times?

nasb@Matthew:12:5 @And the disciples came to the other side of the sea, but they had forgotten to bring any bread.

nasb@Matthew:12:8 @But Jesus, aware of this, said, " You men of little faith, why do you discuss among yourselves that you have no bread?

nasb@Matthew:12:9" @Do you not yet understand or remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets full you picked up?

nasb@Matthew:12:13 @Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, He was asking His disciples, "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?"

nasb@Matthew:12:14 @And they said, "Some say John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; but still others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets."

nasb@Matthew:12:21 @From that time Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised up on the third day.

nasb@Matthew:12:23 @But He turned and said to Peter, "Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on God's interests, but man's."

nasb@Matthew:12:24 @Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me.

nasb@Matthew:12:27" @For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and WILL THEN REPAY EVERY MAN ACCORDING TO HIS DEEDS.

nasb@Matthew:12:28" @Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom."

nasb@Matthew:13:1 @Six days later Jesus took with Him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up on a high mountain by themselves.

nasb@Matthew:13:2 @And He was transfigured before them; and His face shone like the sun, and His garments became as white as light.

nasb@Matthew:13:7 @And Jesus came to them and touched them and said, "Get up, and do not be afraid."

nasb@Matthew:13:10 @And His disciples asked Him, "Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"

nasb@Matthew:13:12 @but I say to you that Elijah already came, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they wished. So also the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands."

nasb@Matthew:13:14 @When they came to the crowd, a man came up to Jesus, falling on his knees before Him and saying,

nasb@Matthew:13:15" @Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is a lunatic and is very ill; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water.

nasb@Matthew:13:17 @And Jesus answered and said, "You unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him here to Me."

nasb@Matthew:13:18 @And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon came out of him, and the boy was cured at once.

nasb@Matthew:13:19 @Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, "Why could we not drive it out?"

nasb@Matthew:13:22 @And while they were gathering together in Galilee, Jesus said to them, "The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men;

nasb@Matthew:13:25 @He said, "Yes." And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, "What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth collect customs or poll-tax, from their sons or from strangers?"

nasb@Matthew:13:27" @However, so that we do not offend them, go to the sea and throw in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up; and when you open its mouth, you will find a shekel. Take that and give it to them for you and Me."

nasb@Matthew:14:1 @At that time the disciples came to Jesus and said, " Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?"

nasb@Matthew:14:3 @and said, "Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.

nasb@Matthew:14:5" @And whoever receives one such child in My name receives Me;

nasb@Matthew:14:6 @but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.

nasb@Matthew:14:7" @Woe to the world because of its stumbling blocks! For it is inevitable that stumbling blocks come; but woe to that man through whom the stumbling block comes!

nasb@Matthew:14:8" @ If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; it is better for you to enter life crippled or lame, than to have two hands or two feet and be cast into the eternal fire.

nasb@Matthew:14:16" @But if he does not listen to you, take one or two more with you, so that BY THE MOUTH OF TWO OR THREE WITNESSES EVERY FACT MAY BE CONFIRMED.

nasb@Matthew:14:20" @For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst."

nasb@Matthew:14:21 @Then Peter came and said to Him, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? Up to seven times?"

nasb@Matthew:14:22 @Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.

nasb@Matthew:14:25" @But since he did not have the means to repay, his lord commanded him to be sold, along with his wife and children and all that he had, and repayment to be made.

nasb@Matthew:14:26" @So the slave fell to the ground and prostrated himself before him, saying, 'Have patience with me and I will repay you everything.'

nasb@Matthew:14:29" @So his fellow slave fell to the ground and began to plead with him, saying, 'Have patience with me and I will repay you.'

nasb@Matthew:14:31" @So when his fellow slaves saw what had happened, they were deeply grieved and came and reported to their lord all that had happened.

nasb@Matthew:14:32" @Then summoning him, his lord said to him, 'You wicked slave, I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me.

nasb@Matthew:14:33 @' Should you not also have had mercy on your fellow slave, in the same way that I had mercy on you?'

nasb@Matthew:14:35" @ My heavenly Father will also do the same to you, if each of you does not forgive his brother from your heart."

nasb@Matthew:15:1 @When Jesus had finished these words, He departed from Galilee and came into the region of Judea beyond the Jordan;

nasb@Matthew:15:3 @Some Pharisees came to Jesus, testing Him and asking, " Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason at all?"

nasb@Matthew:15:5 @and said, ' FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH'?

nasb@Matthew:15:11 @But He said to them, " Not all men can accept this statement, but only those to whom it has been given.

nasb@Matthew:15:12" @For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are also eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept this, let him accept it."

nasb@Matthew:15:13 @Then some children were brought to Him so that He might lay His hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them.

nasb@Matthew:15:14 @But Jesus said, " Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."

nasb@Matthew:15:16 @And someone came to Him and said, "Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may obtain eternal life?"

nasb@Matthew:15:17 @And He said to him, "Why are you asking Me about what is good? There is only One who is good; but if you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments."

nasb@Matthew:15:21 @Jesus said to him, "If you wish to be complete, go and sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me."

nasb@Matthew:15:22 @But when the young man heard this statement, he went away grieving; for he was one who owned much property.

nasb@Matthew:15:24" @Again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

nasb@Matthew:15:28 @And Jesus said to them, "Truly I say to you, that you who have followed Me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on His glorious throne, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

nasb@Matthew:15:29" @And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or farms for My name's sake, will receive many times as much, and will inherit eternal life.

nasb@Matthew:15:5" @Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did the same thing.

nasb@Matthew:15:8" @When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, 'Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last group to the first.'

nasb@Matthew:15:9" @When those hired about the eleventh hour came, each one received a denarius.

nasb@Matthew:15:10" @When those hired first came, they thought that they would receive more; but each of them also received a denarius.

nasb@Matthew:15:12 @saying, 'These last men have worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the scorching heat of the day.'

nasb@Matthew:15:13" @But he answered and said to one of them, ' Friend, I am doing you no wrong; did you not agree with me for a denarius?

nasb@Matthew:15:14 @'Take what is yours and go, but I wish to give to this last man the same as to you.

nasb@Matthew:15:15 @'Is it not lawful for me to do what I wish with what is my own? Or is your eye envious because I am generous?'

nasb@Matthew:15:20 @Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to Jesus with her sons, bowing down and making a request of Him.

nasb@Matthew:15:24 @And hearing this, the ten became indignant with the two brothers.

nasb@Matthew:15:25 @But Jesus called them to Himself and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men exercise authority over them.

nasb@Matthew:15:26" @It is not this way among you, but whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant,

nasb@Matthew:15:28 @just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many."

nasb@Matthew:15:30 @And two blind men sitting by the road, hearing that Jesus was passing by, cried out, "Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!"

nasb@Matthew:15:31 @The crowd sternly told them to be quiet, but they cried out all the more, "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!"

nasb@Matthew:15:32 @And Jesus stopped and called them, and said, "What do you want Me to do for you?"

nasb@Matthew:15:34 @Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes; and immediately they regained their sight and followed Him.

nasb@Matthew:16:1 @When they had approached Jerusalem and had come to Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,

nasb@Matthew:16:2 @saying to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied there and a colt with her; untie them and bring them to Me.

nasb@Matthew:16:3" @If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, 'The Lord has need of them,' and immediately he will send them."

nasb@Matthew:16:9 @The crowds going ahead of Him, and those who followed, were shouting, "Hosanna to the Son of David; BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD; Hosanna in the highest!"

nasb@Matthew:16:14 @And the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple, and He healed them.

nasb@Matthew:16:15 @But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that He had done, and the children who were shouting in the temple, "Hosanna to the Son of David," they became indignant

nasb@Matthew:16:18 @Now in the morning, when He was returning to the city, He became hungry.

nasb@Matthew:16:19 @Seeing a lone fig tree by the road, He came to it and found nothing on it except leaves only; and He said to it, "No longer shall there ever be any fruit from you." And at once the fig tree withered.

nasb@Matthew:16:23 @When He entered the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to Him while He was teaching, and said, "By what authority are You doing these things, and who gave You this authority?"

nasb@Matthew:16:24 @Jesus said to them, "I will also ask you one thing, which if you tell Me, I will also tell you by what authority I do these things.

nasb@Matthew:16:25" @The baptism of John was from what source, from heaven or from men?" And they began reasoning among themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' He will say to us, 'Then why did you not believe him?'

nasb@Matthew:16:26" @But if we say, 'From men,' we fear the people; for they all regard John as a prophet."

nasb@Matthew:16:28" @But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, 'Son, go work today in the vineyard.'

nasb@Matthew:16:30" @The man came to the second and said the same thing; and he answered, 'I will, sir'; but he did not go.

nasb@Matthew:16:32" @For John came to you in the way of righteousness and you did not believe him; but the tax collectors and prostitutes did believe him; and you, seeing this, did not even feel remorse afterward so as to believe him.

nasb@Matthew:16:34" @When the harvest time approached, he sent his slaves to the vine-growers to receive his produce.

nasb@Matthew:16:36" @Again he sent another group of slaves larger than the first; and they did the same thing to them.

nasb@Matthew:16:38" @But when the vine-growers saw the son, they said among themselves, 'This is the heir; come, let us kill him and seize his inheritance.'

nasb@Matthew:16:40" @Therefore when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vine-growers?"

nasb@Matthew:16:42 @Jesus said to them, "Did you never read in the Scriptures, ' THE STONE WHICH THE BUILDERS REJECTED, THIS BECAME THE CHIEF CORNER stone; THIS CAME ABOUT FROM THE LORD, AND IT IS MARVELOUS IN OUR EYES'?

nasb@Matthew:16:44" @And he who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will scatter him like dust."

nasb@Matthew:16:3" @And he sent out his slaves to call those who had been invited to the wedding feast, and they were unwilling to come.

nasb@Matthew:16:4" @Again he sent out other slaves saying, 'Tell those who have been invited, "Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and my fattened livestock are all butchered and everything is ready; come to the wedding feast."'

nasb@Matthew:16:11" @But when the king came in to look over the dinner guests, he saw a man there who was not dressed in wedding clothes,

nasb@Matthew:16:12 @and he said to him, ' Friend, how did you come in here without wedding clothes?' And the man was speechless.

nasb@Matthew:16:18 @But Jesus perceived their malice, and said, "Why are you testing Me, you hypocrites?

nasb@Matthew:16:19" @Show Me the coin used for the poll-tax." And they brought Him a denarius.

nasb@Matthew:16:23 @On that day some Sadducees (who say there is no resurrection) came to Jesus and questioned Him,

nasb@Matthew:16:36" @Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?"

nasb@Matthew:16:38" @This is the great and foremost commandment.

nasb@Matthew:16:40" @ On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets."

nasb@Matthew:17:15" @Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because you travel around on sea and land to make one proselyte; and when he becomes one, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.

nasb@Matthew:17:17" @You fools and blind men! Which is more important, the gold or the temple that sanctified the gold?

nasb@Matthew:17:19" @You blind men, which is more important, the offering, or the altar that sanctifies the offering?

nasb@Matthew:17:23" @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cummin, and have neglected the weightier provisions of the law- justice and mercy and faithfulness; but these are the things you should have done without neglecting the others.

nasb@Matthew:17:26" @You blind Pharisee, first clean the inside of the cup and of the dish, so that the outside of it may become clean also.

nasb@Matthew:17:27" @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which on the outside appear beautiful, but inside they are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanness.

nasb@Matthew:17:28" @So you, too, outwardly appear righteous to men, but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.

nasb@Matthew:17:29" @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you build the tombs of the prophets and adorn the monuments of the righteous,

nasb@Matthew:18:10 @But Jesus, aware of this, said to them, "Why do you bother the woman? For she has done a good deed to Me.

nasb@Matthew:18:11" @For you always have the poor with you; but you do not always have Me.

nasb@Matthew:18:12" @For when she poured this perfume on My body, she did it to prepare Me for burial.

nasb@Matthew:18:13" @Truly I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of in memory of her."

nasb@Matthew:18:14 @Then one of the twelve, named Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests

nasb@Matthew:18:15 @and said, "What are you willing to give me to betray Him to you?" And they weighed out thirty pieces of silver to him.

nasb@Matthew:18:17 @Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?"

nasb@Matthew:18:18 @And He said, "Go into the city to a certain man, and say to him, 'The Teacher says, " My time is near; I am to keep the Passover at your house with My disciples."'"

nasb@Matthew:18:20 @Now when evening came, Jesus was reclining at the table with the twelve disciples.

nasb@Matthew:18:21 @As they were eating, He said, " Truly I say to you that one of you will betray Me."

nasb@Matthew:18:23 @And He answered, " He who dipped his hand with Me in the bowl is the one who will betray Me.

nasb@Matthew:18:26 @While they were eating, Jesus took some bread, and after a blessing, He broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, "Take, eat; this is My body."

nasb@Matthew:18:31 @Then Jesus said to them, "You will all fall away because of Me this night, for it is written, ' I WILL STRIKE DOWN THE SHEPHERD, AND THE SHEEP OF THE FLOCK SHALL BE SCATTERED.'

nasb@Matthew:18:34 @Jesus said to him, " Truly I say to you that this very night, before a rooster crows, you will deny Me three times."

nasb@Matthew:18:35 @Peter said to Him, " Even if I have to die with You, I will not deny You." All the disciples said the same thing too.

nasb@Matthew:18:36 @Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to His disciples, "Sit here while I go over there and pray."

nasb@Matthew:18:38 @Then He said to them, " My soul is deeply grieved, to the point of death; remain here and keep watch with Me."

nasb@Matthew:18:39 @And He went a little beyond them, and fell on His face and prayed, saying, "My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; yet not as I will, but as You will."

nasb@Matthew:18:40 @And He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "So, you men could not keep watch with Me for one hour?

nasb@Matthew:18:42 @He went away again a second time and prayed, saying, "My Father, if this cannot pass away unless I drink it, Your will be done."

nasb@Matthew:18:43 @Again He came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.

nasb@Matthew:18:44 @And He left them again, and went away and prayed a third time, saying the same thing once more.

nasb@Matthew:18:45 @Then He came to the disciples and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? Behold, the hour is at hand and the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.

nasb@Matthew:18:46" @Get up, let us be going; behold, the one who betrays Me is at hand!"

nasb@Matthew:18:47 @While He was still speaking, behold, Judas, one of the twelve, came up accompanied by a large crowd with swords and clubs, who came from the chief priests and elders of the people.

nasb@Matthew:18:48 @Now he who was betraying Him gave them a sign, saying, "Whomever I kiss, He is the one; seize Him."

nasb@Matthew:18:49 @Immediately Judas went to Jesus and said, "Hail, Rabbi!" and kissed Him.

nasb@Matthew:18:50 @And Jesus said to him, " Friend, do what you have come for." Then they came and laid hands on Jesus and seized Him.

nasb@Matthew:18:55 @At that time Jesus said to the crowds, "Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me as you would against a robber? Every day I used to sit in the temple teaching and you did not seize Me.

nasb@Matthew:18:58 @But Peter was following Him at a distance as far as the courtyard of the high priest, and entered in, and sat down with the officers to see the outcome.

nasb@Matthew:18:60 @They did not find any, even though many false witnesses came forward. But later on two came forward,

nasb@Matthew:18:62 @The high priest stood up and said to Him, "Do You not answer? What is it that these men are testifying against You?"

nasb@Matthew:18:65 @Then the high priest tore his robes and said, "He has blasphemed! What further need do we have of witnesses? Behold, you have now heard the blasphemy;

nasb@Matthew:18:69 @Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and a servant-girl came to him and said, "You too were with Jesus the Galilean."

nasb@Matthew:18:73 @A little later the bystanders came up and said to Peter, "Surely you too are one of them; for even the way you talk gives you away."

nasb@Matthew:18:74 @Then he began to curse and swear, "I do not know the man!" And immediately a rooster crowed.

nasb@Matthew:18:75 @And Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said, " Before a rooster crows, you will deny Me three times." And he went out and wept bitterly.

nasb@Matthew:19:1 @Now when morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people conferred together against Jesus to put Him to death;

nasb@Matthew:19:10 @AND THEY GAVE THEM FOR THE POTTER'S FIELD, AS THE LORD DIRECTED ME."

nasb@Matthew:19:15 @Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release for the people any one prisoner whom they wanted.

nasb@Matthew:19:16 @At that time they were holding a notorious prisoner, called Barabbas.

nasb@Matthew:19:17 @So when the people gathered together, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release for you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?"

nasb@Matthew:19:19 @While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent him a message, saying, "Have nothing to do with that righteous Man; for last night I suffered greatly in a dream because of Him."

nasb@Matthew:19:21 @But the governor said to them, "Which of the two do you want me to release for you?" And they said, "Barabbas."

nasb@Matthew:19:31 @After they had mocked Him, they took the scarlet robe off Him and put His own garments back on Him, and led Him away to crucify Him.

nasb@Matthew:19:32 @As they were coming out, they found a man of Cyrene named Simon, whom they pressed into service to bear His cross.

nasb@Matthew:19:33 @And when they came to a place called Golgotha, which means Place of a Skull,

nasb@Matthew:19:35 @And when they had crucified Him, they divided up His garments among themselves by casting lots.

nasb@Matthew:19:38 @At that time two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and one on the left.

nasb@Matthew:19:40 @and saying, " You who are going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save Yourself! If You are the Son of God, come down from the cross."

nasb@Matthew:19:41 @In the same way the chief priests also, along with the scribes and elders, were mocking Him and saying,

nasb@Matthew:19:42" @ He saved others; He cannot save Himself. He is the King of Israel; let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe in Him.

nasb@Matthew:19:44 @The robbers who had been crucified with Him were also insulting Him with the same words.

nasb@Matthew:19:46 @About the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, " ELI, ELI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?" that is, "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?"

nasb@Matthew:19:47 @And some of those who were standing there, when they heard it, began saying, "This man is calling for Elijah."

nasb@Matthew:19:48 @Immediately one of them ran, and taking a sponge, he filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and gave Him a drink.

nasb@Matthew:19:49 @But the rest of them said, "Let us see whether Elijah will come to save Him."

nasb@Matthew:19:54 @Now the centurion, and those who were with him keeping guard over Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that were happening, became very frightened and said, "Truly this was the Son of God!"

nasb@Matthew:19:55 @Many women were there looking on from a distance, who had followed Jesus from Galilee while ministering to Him.

nasb@Matthew:19:56 @Among them was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

nasb@Matthew:19:57 @When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who himself had also become a disciple of Jesus.

nasb@Matthew:19:63 @and said, "Sir, we remember that when He was still alive that deceiver said, ' After three days I am to rise again.'

nasb@Matthew:19:64" @Therefore, give orders for the grave to be made secure until the third day, otherwise His disciples may come and steal Him away and say to the people, 'He has risen from the dead,' and the last deception will be worse than the first."

nasb@Matthew:20:1 @Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to look at the grave.

nasb@Matthew:20:2 @And behold, a severe earthquake had occurred, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled away the stone and sat upon it.

nasb@Matthew:20:4 @The guards shook for fear of him and became like dead men.

nasb@Matthew:20:5 @The angel said to the women, " Do not be afraid; for I know that you are looking for Jesus who has been crucified.

nasb@Matthew:20:6" @He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come, see the place where He was lying.

nasb@Matthew:20:9 @And behold, Jesus met them and greeted them. And they came up and took hold of His feet and worshiped Him.

nasb@Matthew:20:10 @Then Jesus said to them, " Do not be afraid; go and take word to My brethren to leave for Galilee, and there they will see Me."

nasb@Matthew:20:11 @Now while they were on their way, some of the guard came into the city and reported to the chief priests all that had happened.

nasb@Matthew:20:13 @and said, "You are to say, 'His disciples came by night and stole Him away while we were asleep.'

nasb@Matthew:20:14" @And if this should come to the governor's ears, we will win him over and keep you out of trouble."

nasb@Matthew:20:17 @When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some were doubtful.

nasb@Matthew:20:18 @And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, " All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.

nasb@Matthew:20:19" @ Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,

nasb@Mark:1:2 @As it is written in Isaiah the prophet- " BEHOLD, I SEND MY MESSENGER AHEAD OF YOU, WHO WILL PREPARE YOUR WAY;

nasb@Mark:1:6 @John was clothed with camel's hair and wore a leather belt around his waist, and his diet was locusts and wild honey.

nasb@Mark:1:7 @And he was preaching, and saying, "After me One is coming who is mightier than I, and I am not fit to stoop down and untie the thong of His sandals.

nasb@Mark:1:9 @In those days Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

nasb@Mark:1:10 @Immediately coming up out of the water, He saw the heavens opening, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon Him;

nasb@Mark:1:11 @and a voice came out of the heavens- " You are My beloved Son, in You I am well-pleased."

nasb@Mark:1:12 @Immediately the Spirit impelled Him to go out into the wilderness.

nasb@Mark:1:14 @Now after John had been taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God,

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

nasb@Mark:1:16 @As He was going along by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew, the brother of Simon, casting a net in the sea; for they were fishermen.

nasb@Mark:1:17 @And Jesus said to them, "Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men."

nasb@Mark:1:18 @Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.

nasb@Mark:1:19 @Going on a little farther, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.

nasb@Mark:1:20 @Immediately He called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went away to follow Him.

nasb@Mark:1:21 @They went into Capernaum; and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the synagogue and began to teach.

nasb@Mark:1:24 @saying, " What business do we have with each other, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are-- the Holy One of God!"

nasb@Mark:1:25 @And Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!"

nasb@Mark:1:26 @Throwing him into convulsions, the unclean spirit cried out with a loud voice and came out of him.

nasb@Mark:1:28 @Immediately the news about Him spread everywhere into all the surrounding district of Galilee.

nasb@Mark:1:29 @And immediately after they came out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

nasb@Mark:1:30 @Now Simon's mother-in-law was lying sick with a fever; and immediately they spoke to Jesus about her.

nasb@Mark:1:31 @And He came to her and raised her up, taking her by the hand, and the fever left her, and she waited on them.

nasb@Mark:1:32 @When evening came, after the sun had set, they began bringing to Him all who were ill and those who were demon-possessed.

nasb@Mark:1:38 @He said to them, "Let us go somewhere else to the towns nearby, so that I may preach there also; for that is what I came for."

nasb@Mark:1:40 @And a leper came to Jesus, beseeching Him and falling on his knees before Him, and saying, "If You are willing, You can make me clean."

nasb@Mark:1:42 @Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cleansed.

nasb@Mark:1:43 @And He sternly warned him and immediately sent him away,

nasb@Mark:2:1 @When He had come back to Capernaum several days afterward, it was heard that He was at home.

nasb@Mark:2:3 @And they came, bringing to Him a paralytic, carried by four men.

nasb@Mark:2:6 @But some of the scribes were sitting there and reasoning in their hearts,

nasb@Mark:2:8 @Immediately Jesus, aware in His spirit that they were reasoning that way within themselves, said to them, "Why are you reasoning about these things in your hearts?

nasb@Mark:2:11" @I say to you, get up, pick up your pallet and go home."

nasb@Mark:2:12 @And he got up and immediately picked up the pallet and went out in the sight of everyone, so that they were all amazed and were glorifying God, saying, " We have never seen anything like this."

nasb@Mark:2:14 @As He passed by, He saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting in the tax booth, and He said to him, " Follow Me!" And he got up and followed Him.

nasb@Mark:2:17 @And hearing this, Jesus said to them, " It is not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick; I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

nasb@Mark:2:18 @John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting; and they came and said to Him, "Why do John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but Your disciples do not fast?"

nasb@Mark:2:20" @But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast in that day.

nasb@Mark:2:21" @No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; otherwise the patch pulls away from it, the new from the old, and a worse tear results.

nasb@Mark:2:25 @And He said to them, "Have you never read what David did when he was in need and he and his companions became hungry;

nasb@Mark:2:26 @how he entered the house of God in the time of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the consecrated bread, which is not lawful for anyone to eat except the priests, and he also gave it to those who were with him?"

nasb@Mark:3:3 @He said to the man with the withered hand, "Get up and come forward!"

nasb@Mark:3:6 @The Pharisees went out and immediately began conspiring with the Herodians against Him, as to how they might destroy Him.

nasb@Mark:3:8 @and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea, and beyond the Jordan, and the vicinity of Tyre and Sidon, a great number of people heard of all that He was doing and came to Him.

nasb@Mark:3:13 @And He went up on the mountain and summoned those whom He Himself wanted, and they came to Him.

nasb@Mark:3:16 @And He appointed the twelve- Simon (to whom He gave the name Peter),

nasb@Mark:3:17 @and James, the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James (to them He gave the name Boanerges, which means, "Sons of Thunder");

nasb@Mark:3:18 @and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Zealot;

nasb@Mark:3:20 @And He came home, and the crowd gathered again, to such an extent that they could not even eat a meal.

nasb@Mark:3:22 @The scribes who came down from Jerusalem were saying, "He is possessed by Beelzebul," and " He casts out the demons by the ruler of the demons."

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

nasb@Mark:3:29 @but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin"--

nasb@Mark:4:4 @as he was sowing, some seed fell beside the road, and the birds came and ate it up.

nasb@Mark:4:5" @Other seed fell on the rocky ground where it did not have much soil; and immediately it sprang up because it had no depth of soil.

nasb@Mark:4:7" @Other seed fell among the thorns, and the thorns came up and choked it, and it yielded no crop.

nasb@Mark:4:15" @These are the ones who are beside the road where the word is sown; and when they hear, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word which has been sown in them.

nasb@Mark:4:16" @In a similar way these are the ones on whom seed was sown on the rocky places, who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy;

nasb@Mark:4:17 @and they have no firm root in themselves, but are only temporary; then, when affliction or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they fall away.

nasb@Mark:4:19 @but the worries of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the desires for other things enter in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

nasb@Mark:4:22" @ For nothing is hidden, except to be revealed; nor has anything been secret, but that it would come to light.

nasb@Mark:4:24 @And He was saying to them, "Take care what you listen to. By your standard of measure it will be measured to you; and more will be given you besides.

nasb@Mark:4:29" @But when the crop permits, he immediately puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come."

nasb@Mark:4:32 @yet when it is sown, it grows up and becomes larger than all the garden plants and forms large branches; so that THE BIRDS OF THE AIR can NEST UNDER ITS SHADE."

nasb@Mark:4:35 @On that day, when evening came, He said to them, "Let us go over to the other side."

nasb@Mark:4:39 @And He got up and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, "Hush, be still." And the wind died down and it became perfectly calm.

nasb@Mark:4:41 @They became very much afraid and said to one another, "Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey HimNULL"

nasb@Mark:5:1 @They came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gerasenes.

nasb@Mark:5:2 @When He got out of the boat, immediately a man from the tombs with an unclean spirit met Him,

nasb@Mark:5:7 @and shouting with a loud voice, he said, " What business do we have with each other, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God, do not torment me!"

nasb@Mark:5:8 @For He had been saying to him, "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!"

nasb@Mark:5:9 @And He was asking him, "What is your name?" And he said to Him, "My name is Legion; for we are many."

nasb@Mark:5:14 @Their herdsmen ran away and reported it in the city and in the country. And the people came to see what it was that had happened.

nasb@Mark:5:15 @They came to Jesus and observed the man who had been demon-possessed sitting down, clothed and in his right mind, the very man who had had the " legion"; and they became frightened.

nasb@Mark:5:19 @And He did not let him, but He said to him, " Go home to your people and report to them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how He had mercy on you."

nasb@Mark:5:22 @One of the synagogue officials named Jairus came up, and on seeing Him, fell at His feet

nasb@Mark:5:23 @and implored Him earnestly, saying, "My little daughter is at the point of death; please come and lay Your hands on her, so that she will get well and live."

nasb@Mark:5:27 @after hearing about Jesus, she came up in the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak.

nasb@Mark:5:28 @For she thought, "If I just touch His garments, I will get well."

nasb@Mark:5:29 @Immediately the flow of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her affliction.

nasb@Mark:5:30 @Immediately Jesus, perceiving in Himself that the power proceeding from Him had gone forth, turned around in the crowd and said, "Who touched My garments?"

nasb@Mark:5:31 @And His disciples said to Him, "You see the crowd pressing in on You, and You say, 'Who touched Me?'"

nasb@Mark:5:33 @But the woman fearing and trembling, aware of what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth.

nasb@Mark:5:35 @While He was still speaking, they came from the house of the synagogue official, saying, "Your daughter has died; why trouble the Teacher anymore?"

nasb@Mark:5:37 @And He allowed no one to accompany Him, except Peter and James and John the brother of James.

nasb@Mark:5:38 @They came to the house of the synagogue official; and He saw a commotion, and people loudly weeping and wailing.

nasb@Mark:5:41 @Taking the child by the hand, He said to her, "Talitha kum!" (which translated means, "Little girl, I say to you, get up!").

nasb@Mark:5:42 @Immediately the girl got up and began to walk, for she was twelve years old. And immediately they were completely astounded.

nasb@Mark:5:43 @And He gave them strict orders that no one should know about this, and He said that something should be given her to eat.

nasb@Mark:6:1 @Jesus went out from there and came into His hometown; and His disciples followed Him.

nasb@Mark:6:2 @When the Sabbath came, He began to teach in the synagogue; and the many listeners were astonished, saying, "Where did this man get these things, and what is this wisdom given to Him, and such miracles as these performed by His hands?

nasb@Mark:6:3" @Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? Are not His sisters here with us?" And they took offense at Him.

nasb@Mark:6:4 @Jesus said to them, " A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and among his own relatives and in his own household."

nasb@Mark:6:8 @and He instructed them that they should take nothing for their journey, except a mere staff--no bread, no bag, no money in their belt--

nasb@Mark:6:12 @They went out and preached that men should repent.

nasb@Mark:6:14 @And King Herod heard of it, for His name had become well known; and people were saying, " John the Baptist has risen from the dead, and that is why these miraculous powers are at work in Him."

nasb@Mark:6:21 @A strategic day came when Herod on his birthday gave a banquet for his lords and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee;

nasb@Mark:6:22 @and when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his dinner guests; and the king said to the girl, "Ask me for whatever you want and I will give it to you."

nasb@Mark:6:23 @And he swore to her, "Whatever you ask of me, I will give it to you; up to half of my kingdom."

nasb@Mark:6:25 @Immediately she came in a hurry to the king and asked, saying, "I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter."

nasb@Mark:6:27 @Immediately the king sent an executioner and commanded him to bring back his head. And he went and had him beheaded in the prison,

nasb@Mark:6:29 @When his disciples heard about this, they came and took away his body and laid it in a tomb.

nasb@Mark:6:31 @And He said to them, "Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a while." (For there were many people coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.)

nasb@Mark:6:35 @When it was already quite late, His disciples came to Him and said, "This place is desolate and it is already quite late;

nasb@Mark:6:36 @send them away so that they may go into the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat."

nasb@Mark:6:37 @But He answered them, "You give them something to eat!" And they said to Him, "Shall we go and spend two hundred denarii on bread and give them something to eat?"

nasb@Mark:6:44 @There were five thousand men who ate the loaves.

nasb@Mark:6:48 @Seeing them straining at the oars, for the wind was against them, at about the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea; and He intended to pass by them.

nasb@Mark:6:50 @for they all saw Him and were terrified. But immediately He spoke with them and said to them, " Take courage; it is I, do not be afraid."

nasb@Mark:6:53 @When they had crossed over they came to land at Gennesaret, and moored to the shore.

nasb@Mark:6:54 @When they got out of the boat, immediately the people recognized Him,

nasb@Mark:7:1 @The Pharisees and some of the scribes gathered around Him when they had come from Jerusalem,

nasb@Mark:7:2 @and had seen that some of His disciples were eating their bread with impure hands, that is, unwashed.

nasb@Mark:7:4 @and when they come from the market place, they do not eat unless they cleanse themselves; and there are many other things which they have received in order to observe, such as the washing of cups and pitchers and copper pots.)

nasb@Mark:7:6 @And He said to them, "Rightly did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written- ' THIS PEOPLE HONORS ME WITH THEIR LIPS, BUT THEIR HEART IS FAR AWAY FROM ME.

nasb@Mark:7:24 @And he looked up and said, "I see men, for I see them like trees, walking around."

nasb@Mark:7:26 @And He sent him to his home, saying, "Do not even enter the village."

nasb@Mark:7:33 @But turning around and seeing His disciples, He rebuked Peter and said, "Get behind Me, Satan; for you are not setting your mind on God's interests, but man's."

nasb@Mark:7:34 @And He summoned the crowd with His disciples, and said to them, "If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me.

nasb@Mark:7:38" @For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels."

nasb@Mark:8:1 @And Jesus was saying to them, " Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God after it has come with power."

nasb@Mark:8:2 @Six days later, Jesus took with Him Peter and James and John, and brought them up on a high mountain by themselves. And He was transfigured before them;

nasb@Mark:8:3 @and His garments became radiant and exceedingly white, as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

nasb@Mark:8:6 @For he did not know what to answer; for they became terrified.

nasb@Mark:8:7 @Then a cloud formed, overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud, " This is My beloved Son, listen to Him!"

nasb@Mark:8:10 @They seized upon that statement, discussing with one another what rising from the dead meant.

nasb@Mark:8:11 @They asked Him, saying, "Why is it that the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"

nasb@Mark:8:12 @And He said to them, "Elijah does first come and restore all things. And yet how is it written of the Son of Man that He will suffer many things and be treated with contempt?

nasb@Mark:8:13" @But I say to you that Elijah has indeed come, and they did to him whatever they wished, just as it is written of him."

nasb@Mark:8:14 @When they came back to the disciples, they saw a large crowd around them, and some scribes arguing with them.

nasb@Mark:8:15 @Immediately, when the entire crowd saw Him, they were amazed and began running up to greet Him.

nasb@Mark:8:19 @And He answered them and said, "O unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him to Me!"

nasb@Mark:8:20 @They brought the boy to Him. When he saw Him, immediately the spirit threw him into a convulsion, and falling to the ground, he began rolling around and foaming at the mouth.

nasb@Mark:8:24 @Immediately the boy's father cried out and said, "I do believe; help my unbelief."

nasb@Mark:8:25 @When Jesus saw that a crowd was rapidly gathering, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "You deaf and mute spirit, I command you, come out of him and do not enter him again."

nasb@Mark:8:26 @After crying out and throwing him into terrible convulsions, it came out; and the boy became so much like a corpse that most of them said, "He is dead!"

nasb@Mark:8:28 @When He came into the house, His disciples began questioning Him privately, "Why could we not drive it out?"

nasb@Mark:8:29 @And He said to them, "This kind cannot come out by anything but prayer."

nasb@Mark:8:31 @For He was teaching His disciples and telling them, " The Son of Man is to be delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill Him; and when He has been killed, He will rise three days later."

nasb@Mark:8:32 @But they did not understand this statement, and they were afraid to ask Him.

nasb@Mark:8:33 @They came to Capernaum; and when He was in the house, He began to question them, "What were you discussing on the way?"

nasb@Mark:8:37" @ Whoever receives one child like this in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me does not receive Me, but Him who sent Me."

nasb@Mark:8:38 @John said to Him, "Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us."

nasb@Mark:8:39 @But Jesus said, "Do not hinder him, for there is no one who will perform a miracle in My name, and be able soon afterward to speak evil of Me.

nasb@Mark:8:41" @For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because of your name as followers of Christ, truly I say to you, he will not lose his reward.

nasb@Mark:9:2 @Some Pharisees came up to Jesus, testing Him, and began to question Him whether it was lawful for a man to divorce a wife.

nasb@Mark:9:5 @But Jesus said to them, " Because of your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment.

nasb@Mark:9:8 @AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH; so they are no longer two, but one flesh.

nasb@Mark:9:14 @But when Jesus saw this, He was indignant and said to them, "Permit the children to come to Me; do not hinder them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

nasb@Mark:9:18 @And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone.

nasb@Mark:9:19" @You know the commandments, ' DO NOT MURDER, DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY, DO NOT STEAL, DO NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS, Do not defraud, HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER.'"

nasb@Mark:9:21 @Looking at him, Jesus felt a love for him and said to him, "One thing you lack- go and sell all you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me."

nasb@Mark:9:35 @James and John, the two sons of Zebedee, came up to Jesus, saying, "Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask of You."

nasb@Mark:9:36 @And He said to them, "What do you want Me to do for you?"

nasb@Mark:9:41 @Hearing this, the ten began to feel indignant with James and John.

nasb@Mark:9:42 @Calling them to Himself, Jesus said to them, "You know that those who are recognized as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them; and their great men exercise authority over them.

nasb@Mark:9:43" @But it is not this way among you, but whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant;

nasb@Mark:9:45" @For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many."

nasb@Mark:9:46 @Then they came to Jericho. And as He was leaving Jericho with His disciples and a large crowd, a blind beggar named Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the road.

nasb@Mark:9:47 @When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"

nasb@Mark:9:48 @Many were sternly telling him to be quiet, but he kept crying out all the more, " Son of David, have mercy on me!"

nasb@Mark:9:50 @Throwing aside his cloak, he jumped up and came to Jesus.

nasb@Mark:9:51 @And answering him, Jesus said, "What do you want Me to do for you?" And the blind man said to Him, " Rabboni, I want to regain my sight!"

nasb@Mark:9:52 @And Jesus said to him, "Go; your faith has made you well." Immediately he regained his sight and began following Him on the road.

nasb@Mark:10:2 @and said to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one yet has ever sat; untie it and bring it here.

nasb@Mark:10:3" @If anyone says to you, 'Why are you doing this?' you say, 'The Lord has need of it'; and immediately he will send it back here."

nasb@Mark:10:5 @Some of the bystanders were saying to them, "What are you doing, untying the colt?"

nasb@Mark:10:9 @Those who went in front and those who followed were shouting- "Hosanna! BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD;

nasb@Mark:10:12 @On the next day, when they had left Bethany, He became hungry.

nasb@Mark:10:13 @Seeing at a distance a fig tree in leaf, He went to see if perhaps He would find anything on it; and when He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

nasb@Mark:10:15 @Then they came to Jerusalem. And He entered the temple and began to drive out those who were buying and selling in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves;

nasb@Mark:10:16 @and He would not permit anyone to carry merchandise through the temple.

nasb@Mark:10:19 @When evening came, they would go out of the city.

nasb@Mark:10:27 @They came again to Jerusalem. And as He was walking in the temple, the chief priests and the scribes and the elders came to Him,

nasb@Mark:10:29 @And Jesus said to them, "I will ask you one question, and you answer Me, and then I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

nasb@Mark:10:30" @Was the baptism of John from heaven, or from men? Answer Me."

nasb@Mark:10:32" @But shall we say, 'From men'?"--they were afraid of the people, for everyone considered John to have been a real prophet.

nasb@Mark:10:2" @At the harvest time he sent a slave to the vine-growers, in order to receive some of the produce of the vineyard from the vine-growers.

nasb@Mark:10:4" @Again he sent them another slave, and they wounded him in the head, and treated him shamefully.

nasb@Mark:10:5" @And he sent another, and that one they killed; and so with many others, beating some and killing others.

nasb@Mark:10:7" @But those vine-growers said to one another, 'This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours!'

nasb@Mark:10:9" @What will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the vine-growers, and will give the vineyard to others.

nasb@Mark:10:11 @THIS CAME ABOUT FROM THE LORD, AND IT IS MARVELOUS IN OUR EYES'?"

nasb@Mark:10:13 @Then they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to Him in order to trap Him in a statement.

nasb@Mark:10:14 @They came and said to Him, "Teacher, we know that You are truthful and defer to no one; for You are not partial to any, but teach the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to pay a poll-tax to Caesar, or not?

nasb@Mark:10:15" @Shall we pay or shall we not pay?" But He, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, "Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius to look at."

nasb@Mark:10:18 @Some Sadducees (who say that there is no resurrection) came to Jesus, and began questioning Him, saying,

nasb@Mark:10:28 @One of the scribes came and heard them arguing, and recognizing that He had answered them well, asked Him, "What commandment is the foremost of all?"

nasb@Mark:10:31" @The second is this, ' YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

nasb@Mark:10:42 @A poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which amount to a cent.

nasb@Mark:11:3 @As He was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew were questioning Him privately,

nasb@Mark:11:6" @Many will come in My name, saying, ' I am He!' and will mislead many.

nasb@Mark:12:3 @While He was in Bethany at the home of Simon the leper, and reclining at the table, there came a woman with an alabaster vial of very costly perfume of pure nard; and she broke the vial and poured it over His head.

nasb@Mark:12:4 @But some were indignantly remarking to one another, "Why has this perfume been wasted?

nasb@Mark:12:5" @For this perfume might have been sold for over three hundred denarii, and the money given to the poor." And they were scolding her.

nasb@Mark:12:6 @But Jesus said, "Let her alone; why do you bother her? She has done a good deed to Me.

nasb@Mark:12:7" @For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you wish you can do good to them; but you do not always have Me.

nasb@Mark:12:9" @Truly I say to you, wherever the gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of in memory of her."

nasb@Mark:12:11 @They were glad when they heard this, and promised to give him money. And he began seeking how to betray Him at an opportune time.

nasb@Mark:12:13 @And He sent two of His disciples and said to them, "Go into the city, and a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him;

nasb@Mark:12:16 @The disciples went out and came to the city, and found it just as He had told them; and they prepared the Passover.

nasb@Mark:12:17 @When it was evening He came with the twelve.

nasb@Mark:12:18 @As they were reclining at the table and eating, Jesus said, "Truly I say to you that one of you will betray Me--one who is eating with Me."

nasb@Mark:12:20 @And He said to them, "It is one of the twelve, one who dips with Me in the bowl.

nasb@Mark:12:22 @While they were eating, He took some bread, and after a blessing He broke it, and gave it to them, and said, "Take it; this is My body."

nasb@Mark:12:30 @And Jesus said to him, "Truly I say to you, that this very night, before a rooster crows twice, you yourself will deny Me three times."

nasb@Mark:12:31 @But Peter kept saying insistently, "Even if I have to die with You, I will not deny You!" And they all were saying the same thing also.

nasb@Mark:12:32 @They came to a place named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, "Sit here until I have prayed."

nasb@Mark:12:33 @And He took with Him Peter and James and John, and began to be very distressed and troubled.

nasb@Mark:12:36 @And He was saying, " Abba! Father! All things are possible for You; remove this cup from Me; yet not what I will, but what You will."

nasb@Mark:12:37 @And He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "Simon, are you asleep? Could you not keep watch for one hour?

nasb@Mark:12:38" @ Keep watching and praying that you may not come into temptation; the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak."

nasb@Mark:12:39 @Again He went away and prayed, saying the same words.

nasb@Mark:12:40 @And again He came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy; and they did not know what to answer Him.

nasb@Mark:12:41 @And He came the third time, and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough; the hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.

nasb@Mark:12:42" @Get up, let us be going; behold, the one who betrays Me is at hand!"

nasb@Mark:12:43 @Immediately while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, came up accompanied by a crowd with swords and clubs, who were from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

nasb@Mark:12:44 @Now he who was betraying Him had given them a signal, saying, "Whomever I kiss, He is the one; seize Him and lead Him away under guard."

nasb@Mark:12:45 @After coming, Judas immediately went to Him, saying, " Rabbi!" and kissed Him.

nasb@Mark:12:48 @And Jesus said to them, "Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me, as you would against a robber?

nasb@Mark:12:49" @Every day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize Me; but this has taken place to fulfill the Scriptures."

nasb@Mark:12:57 @Some stood up and began to give false testimony against Him, saying,

nasb@Mark:12:60 @The high priest stood up and came forward and questioned Jesus, saying, "Do You not answer? What is it that these men are testifying against You?"

nasb@Mark:12:65 @Some began to spit at Him, and to blindfold Him, and to beat Him with their fists, and to say to Him, " Prophesy!" And the officers received Him with slaps in the face.

nasb@Mark:12:66 @As Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant-girls of the high priest came,

nasb@Mark:12:72 @Immediately a rooster crowed a second time. And Peter remembered how Jesus had made the remark to him, "Before a rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times." And he began to weep.

nasb@Mark:13:1 @Early in the morning the chief priests with the elders and scribes and the whole Council, immediately held a consultation; and binding Jesus, they led Him away and delivered Him to Pilate.

nasb@Mark:13:7 @The man named Barabbas had been imprisoned with the insurrectionists who had committed murder in the insurrection.

nasb@Mark:13:8 @The crowd went up and began asking him to do as he had been accustomed to do for them.

nasb@Mark:13:9 @Pilate answered them, saying, "Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?"

nasb@Mark:13:20 @After they had mocked Him, they took the purple robe off Him and put His own garments on Him. And they led Him out to crucify Him.

nasb@Mark:13:24 @And they crucified Him, and divided up His garments among themselves, casting lots for them to decide what each man should take.

nasb@Mark:13:30 @save Yourself, and come down from the cross!"

nasb@Mark:13:31 @In the same way the chief priests also, along with the scribes, were mocking Him among themselves and saying, " He saved others; He cannot save Himself.

nasb@Mark:13:32" @Let this Christ, the King of Israel, now come down from the cross, so that we may see and believe!" Those who were crucified with Him were also insulting Him.

nasb@Mark:13:33 @When the sixth hour came, darkness fell over the whole land until the ninth hour.

nasb@Mark:13:34 @At the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, " ELOI, ELOI, LAMA SABACHTHANI?" which is translated, "MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?"

nasb@Mark:13:35 @When some of the bystanders heard it, they began saying, "Behold, He is calling for Elijah."

nasb@Mark:13:36 @Someone ran and filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on a reed, and gave Him a drink, saying, "Let us see whether Elijah will come to take Him down."

nasb@Mark:13:40 @There were also some women looking on from a distance, among whom were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the Less and Joses, and Salome.

nasb@Mark:13:41 @When He was in Galilee, they used to follow Him and minister to Him; and there were many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem.

nasb@Mark:13:43 @Joseph of Arimathea came, a prominent member of the Council, who himself was waiting for the kingdom of God; and he gathered up courage and went in before Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus.

nasb@Mark:14:1 @When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, so that they might come and anoint Him.

nasb@Mark:14:2 @Very early on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.

nasb@Mark:14:4 @Looking up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away, although it was extremely large.

nasb@Mark:14:8 @They went out and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had gripped them; and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.

And after that, Jesus Himself sent out through them from east to west the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.]

nasb@Luke:1:3 @it seemed fitting for me as well, having investigated everything carefully from the beginning, to write it out for you in consecutive order, most excellent Theophilus;

nasb@Luke:1:5 @In the days of Herod, king of Judea, there was a priest named Zacharias, of the division of Abijah; and he had a wife from the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

nasb@Luke:1:6 @They were both righteous in the sight of God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and requirements of the Lord.

nasb@Luke:1:13 @But the angel said to him, " Do not be afraid, Zacharias, for your petition has been heard, and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you will give him the name John.

nasb@Luke:1:20" @And behold, you shall be silent and unable to speak until the day when these things take place, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled in their proper time."

nasb@Luke:1:22 @But when he came out, he was unable to speak to them; and they realized that he had seen a vision in the temple; and he kept making signs to them, and remained mute.

nasb@Luke:1:23 @When the days of his priestly service were ended, he went back home.

nasb@Luke:1:24 @After these days Elizabeth his wife became pregnant, and she kept herself in seclusion for five months, saying,

nasb@Luke:1:25" @This is the way the Lord has dealt with me in the days when He looked with favor upon me, to take away my disgrace among men."

nasb@Luke:1:27 @to a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, of the descendants of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.

nasb@Luke:1:29 @But she was very perplexed at this statement, and kept pondering what kind of salutation this was.

nasb@Luke:1:31" @And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name Him Jesus.

nasb@Luke:1:35 @The angel answered and said to her, " The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; and for that reason the holy Child shall be called the Son of God.

nasb@Luke:1:38 @And Mary said, "Behold, the bondslave of the Lord; may it be done to me according to your word." And the angel departed from her.

nasb@Luke:1:39 @Now at this time Mary arose and went in a hurry to the hill country, to a city of Judah,

nasb@Luke:1:42 @And she cried out with a loud voice and said, "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!

nasb@Luke:1:43" @And how has it happened to me, that the mother of my Lord would come to me?

nasb@Luke:1:45" @And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what had been spoken to her by the Lord."

nasb@Luke:1:54" @He has given help to Israel His servant, In remembrance of His mercy,

nasb@Luke:1:56 @And Mary stayed with her about three months, and then returned to her home.

nasb@Luke:1:57 @Now the time had come for Elizabeth to give birth, and she gave birth to a son.

nasb@Luke:1:58 @Her neighbors and her relatives heard that the Lord had displayed His great mercy toward her; and they were rejoicing with her.

nasb@Luke:1:59 @And it happened that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child, and they were going to call him Zacharias, after his father.

nasb@Luke:1:61 @And they said to her, "There is no one among your relatives who is called by that name."

nasb@Luke:1:63 @And he asked for a tablet and wrote as follows, " His name is John." And they were all astonished.

nasb@Luke:1:65 @Fear came on all those living around them; and all these matters were being talked about in all the hill country of Judea.

nasb@Luke:1:78 @Because of the tender mercy of our God, With which the Sunrise from on high will visit us,

nasb@Luke:2:8 @In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night.

nasb@Luke:2:14" @ Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased."

nasb@Luke:2:16 @So they came in a hurry and found their way to Mary and Joseph, and the baby as He lay in the manger.

nasb@Luke:2:17 @When they had seen this, they made known the statement which had been told them about this Child.

nasb@Luke:2:21 @And when eight days had passed, before His circumcision, His name was then called Jesus, the name given by the angel before He was conceived in the womb.

nasb@Luke:2:25 @And there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon; and this man was righteous and devout, looking for the consolation of Israel; and the Holy Spirit was upon him.

nasb@Luke:2:27 @And he came in the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to carry out for Him the custom of the Law,

nasb@Luke:2:34 @And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary His mother, "Behold, this Child is appointed for the fall and rise of many in Israel, and for a sign to be opposed--

nasb@Luke:2:49 @And He said to them, "Why is it that you were looking for Me? Did you not know that I had to be in My Father's house?"

nasb@Luke:2:50 @But they did not understand the statement which He had made to them.

nasb@Luke:2:51 @And He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and He continued in subjection to them; and His mother treasured all these things in her heart.

nasb@Luke:2:52 @And Jesus kept increasing in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.

nasb@Luke:3:2 @in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John, the son of Zacharias, in the wilderness.

nasb@Luke:3:3 @And he came into all the district around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins;

nasb@Luke:3:5 @' EVERY RAVINE WILL BE FILLED, AND EVERY MOUNTAIN AND HILL WILL BE BROUGHT LOW; THE CROOKED WILL BECOME STRAIGHT, AND THE ROUGH ROADS SMOOTH;

nasb@Luke:3:7 @So he began saying to the crowds who were going out to be baptized by him, " You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

nasb@Luke:3:12 @And some tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, "Teacher, what shall we do?"

nasb@Luke:3:14 @Some soldiers were questioning him, saying, "And what about us, what shall we do?" And he said to them, "Do not take money from anyone by force, or accuse anyone falsely, and be content with your wages."

nasb@Luke:3:16 @John answered and said to them all, "As for me, I baptize you with water; but One is coming who is mightier than I, and I am not fit to untie the thong of His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

nasb@Luke:3:22 @and the Holy Spirit descended upon Him in bodily form like a dove, and a voice came out of heaven, " You are My beloved Son, in You I am well-pleased."

nasb@Luke:4:2 @for forty days, being tempted by the devil. And He ate nothing during those days, and when they had ended, He became hungry.

nasb@Luke:4:3 @And the devil said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread."

nasb@Luke:4:5 @And he led Him up and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

nasb@Luke:4:6 @And the devil said to Him, "I will give You all this domain and its glory; for it has been handed over to me, and I give it to whomever I wish.

nasb@Luke:4:7" @Therefore if You worship before me, it shall all be Yours."

nasb@Luke:4:13 @When the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.

nasb@Luke:4:16 @And He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up; and as was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath, and stood up to read.

nasb@Luke:4:18" @ THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS UPON ME, BECAUSE HE ANOINTED ME TO PREACH THE GOSPEL TO THE POOR. HE HAS SENT ME TO PROCLAIM RELEASE TO THE CAPTIVES, AND RECOVERY OF SIGHT TO THE BLIND, TO SET FREE THOSE WHO ARE OPPRESSED,

nasb@Luke:4:23 @And He said to them, "No doubt you will quote this proverb to Me, 'Physician, heal yourself! Whatever we heard was done at Capernaum, do here in your hometown as well.'"

nasb@Luke:4:24 @And He said, "Truly I say to you, no prophet is welcome in his hometown.

nasb@Luke:4:25" @But I say to you in truth, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the sky was shut up for three years and six months, when a great famine came over all the land;

nasb@Luke:4:27" @And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, but only Naaman the Syrian."

nasb@Luke:4:31 @And He came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and He was teaching them on the Sabbath;

nasb@Luke:4:32 @and they were amazed at His teaching, for His message was with authority.

nasb@Luke:4:34" @Let us alone! What business do we have with each other, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are-- the Holy One of God!"

nasb@Luke:4:35 @But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet and come out of him!" And when the demon had thrown him down in the midst of the people, he came out of him without doing him any harm.

nasb@Luke:4:36 @And amazement came upon them all, and they began talking with one another saying, "What is this message? For with authority and power He commands the unclean spirits and they come out."

nasb@Luke:4:38 @Then He got up and left the synagogue, and entered Simon's home. Now Simon's mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever, and they asked Him to help her.

nasb@Luke:4:39 @And standing over her, He rebuked the fever, and it left her; and she immediately got up and waited on them.

nasb@Luke:4:42 @When day came, Jesus left and went to a secluded place; and the crowds were searching for Him, and came to Him and tried to keep Him from going away from them.

nasb@Luke:5:2 @and He saw two boats lying at the edge of the lake; but the fishermen had gotten out of them and were washing their nets.

nasb@Luke:5:7 @so they signaled to their partners in the other boat for them to come and help them. And they came and filled both of the boats, so that they began to sink.

nasb@Luke:5:8 @But when Simon Peter saw that, he fell down at Jesus' feet, saying, "Go away from me Lord, for I am a sinful man!"

nasb@Luke:5:9 @For amazement had seized him and all his companions because of the catch of fish which they had taken;

nasb@Luke:5:10 @and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, " Do not fear, from now on you will be catching men."

nasb@Luke:5:12 @While He was in one of the cities, behold, there was a man covered with leprosy; and when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and implored Him, saying, "Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean."

nasb@Luke:5:13 @And He stretched out His hand and touched him, saying, "I am willing; be cleansed." And immediately the leprosy left him.

nasb@Luke:5:17 @One day He was teaching; and there were some Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting there, who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was present for Him to perform healing.

nasb@Luke:5:18 @And some men were carrying on a bed a man who was paralyzed; and they were trying to bring him in and to set him down in front of Him.

nasb@Luke:5:24" @But, so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins,"--He said to the paralytic--"I say to you, get up, and pick up your stretcher and go home."

nasb@Luke:5:25 @Immediately he got up before them, and picked up what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.

nasb@Luke:5:26 @They were all struck with astonishment and began glorifying God; and they were filled with fear, saying, "We have seen remarkable things today."

nasb@Luke:5:27 @After that He went out and noticed a tax collector named Levi sitting in the tax booth, and He said to him, "Follow Me."

nasb@Luke:5:32" @I have not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance."

nasb@Luke:5:33 @And they said to Him, " The disciples of John often fast and offer prayers, the disciples of the Pharisees also do the same, but Yours eat and drink."

nasb@Luke:5:35" @ But the days will come; and when the bridegroom is taken away from them, then they will fast in those days."

nasb@Luke:5:36 @And He was also telling them a parable- "No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and puts it on an old garment; otherwise he will both tear the new, and the piece from the new will not match the old.

nasb@Luke:6:1 @Now it happened that He was passing through some grainfields on a Sabbath; and His disciples were picking the heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands, and eating the grain.

nasb@Luke:6:2 @But some of the Pharisees said, "Why do you do what is not lawful on the Sabbath?"

nasb@Luke:6:8 @But He knew what they were thinking, and He said to the man with the withered hand, "Get up and come forward!" And he got up and came forward.

nasb@Luke:6:12 @It was at this time that He went off to the mountain to pray, and He spent the whole night in prayer to God.

nasb@Luke:6:13 @And when day came, He called His disciples to Him and chose twelve of them, whom He also named as apostles-

nasb@Luke:6:14 @Simon, whom He also named Peter, and Andrew his brother; and James and John; and Philip and Bartholomew;

nasb@Luke:6:15 @and Matthew and Thomas; James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the Zealot;

nasb@Luke:6:16 @Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.

nasb@Luke:6:17 @Jesus came down with them and stood on a level place; and there was a large crowd of His disciples, and a great throng of people from all Judea and Jerusalem and the coastal region of Tyre and Sidon,

nasb@Luke:6:18 @who had come to hear Him and to be healed of their diseases; and those who were troubled with unclean spirits were being cured.

nasb@Luke:6:22" @ Blessed are you when men hate you, and ostracize you, and insult you, and scorn your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of Man.

nasb@Luke:6:23" @Be glad in that day and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven. For in the same way their fathers used to treat the prophets.

nasb@Luke:6:26" @Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers used to treat the false prophets in the same way.

nasb@Luke:6:31" @ Treat others the same way you want them to treat you.

nasb@Luke:6:33" @If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.

nasb@Luke:6:34" @ If you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners in order to receive back the same amount.

nasb@Luke:6:35" @But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He Himself is kind to ungrateful and evil men.

nasb@Luke:6:36" @Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

nasb@Luke:6:38" @Give, and it will be given to you. They will pour into your lap a good measure--pressed down, shaken together, and running over. For by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return."

nasb@Luke:6:42" @Or how can you say to your brother, 'Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,' when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother's eye.

nasb@Luke:6:44" @ For each tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a briar bush.

nasb@Luke:6:46" @ Why do you call Me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say?

nasb@Luke:6:47" @ Everyone who comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them, I will show you whom he is like-

nasb@Luke:6:49" @But the one who has heard and has not acted accordingly, is like a man who built a house on the ground without any foundation; and the torrent burst against it and immediately it collapsed, and the ruin of that house was great."

nasb@Luke:7:3 @When he heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders asking Him to come and save the life of his slave.

nasb@Luke:7:4 @When they came to Jesus, they earnestly implored Him, saying, "He is worthy for You to grant this to him;

nasb@Luke:7:6 @Now Jesus started on His way with them; and when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to Him, "Lord, do not trouble Yourself further, for I am not worthy for You to come under my roof;

nasb@Luke:7:7 @for this reason I did not even consider myself worthy to come to You, but just say the word, and my servant will be healed.

nasb@Luke:7:8" @For I also am a man placed under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, 'Go!' and he goes, and to another, 'Come!' and he comes, and to my slave, 'Do this!' and he does it."

nasb@Luke:7:14 @And He came up and touched the coffin; and the bearers came to a halt. And He said, "Young man, I say to you, arise!"

nasb@Luke:7:19 @Summoning two of his disciples, John sent them to the Lord, saying, "Are You the Expected One, or do we look for someone else?"

nasb@Luke:7:20 @When the men came to Him, they said, "John the Baptist has sent us to You, to ask, 'Are You the Expected One, or do we look for someone else?'"

nasb@Luke:7:21 @At that very time He cured many people of diseases and afflictions and evil spirits; and He gave sight to many who were blind.

nasb@Luke:7:22 @And He answered and said to them, "Go and report to John what you have seen and heard- the BLIND RECEIVE SIGHT, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the POOR HAVE THE GOSPEL PREACHED TO THEM.

nasb@Luke:7:23" @Blessed is he who does not take offense at Me."

nasb@Luke:7:24 @When the messengers of John had left, He began to speak to the crowds about John, "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

nasb@Luke:7:27" @This is the one about whom it is written, ' BEHOLD, I SEND MY MESSENGER AHEAD OF YOU, WHO WILL PREPARE YOUR WAY BEFORE YOU.'

nasb@Luke:7:28" @I say to you, among those born of women there is no one greater than John; yet he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he."

nasb@Luke:7:31" @To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like?

nasb@Luke:7:33" @For John the Baptist has come eating no bread and drinking no wine, and you say, 'He has a demon!'

nasb@Luke:7:34" @The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, 'Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!'

nasb@Luke:7:37 @And there was a woman in the city who was a sinner; and when she learned that He was reclining at the table in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster vial of perfume,

nasb@Luke:7:38 @and standing behind Him at His feet, weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears, and kept wiping them with the hair of her head, and kissing His feet and anointing them with the perfume.

nasb@Luke:7:40 @And Jesus answered him, "Simon, I have something to say to you." And he replied, "Say it, Teacher."

nasb@Luke:7:44 @Turning toward the woman, He said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has wet My feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.

nasb@Luke:7:45" @You gave Me no kiss; but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss My feet.

nasb@Luke:7:46" @ You did not anoint My head with oil, but she anointed My feet with perfume.

nasb@Luke:8:2 @and also some women who had been healed of evil spirits and sicknesses- Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,

nasb@Luke:8:3 @and Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others who were contributing to their support out of their private means.

nasb@Luke:8:5" @The sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell beside the road, and it was trampled under foot and the birds of the air ate it up.

nasb@Luke:8:8" @Other seed fell into the good soil, and grew up, and produced a crop a hundred times as great." As He said these things, He would call out, " He who has ears to hear, let him hear."

nasb@Luke:8:9 @His disciples began questioning Him as to what this parable meant.

nasb@Luke:8:12" @Those beside the road are those who have heard; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, so that they will not believe and be saved.

nasb@Luke:8:13" @Those on the rocky soil are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no firm root; they believe for a while, and in time of temptation fall away.

nasb@Luke:8:16" @Now no one after lighting a lamp covers it over with a container, or puts it under a bed; but he puts it on a lampstand, so that those who come in may see the light.

nasb@Luke:8:17" @ For nothing is hidden that will not become evident, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light.

nasb@Luke:8:19 @And His mother and brothers came to Him, and they were unable to get to Him because of the crowd.

nasb@Luke:8:24 @They came to Jesus and woke Him up, saying, " Master, Master, we are perishing!" And He got up and rebuked the wind and the surging waves, and they stopped, and it became calm.

nasb@Luke:8:27 @And when He came out onto the land, He was met by a man from the city who was possessed with demons; and who had not put on any clothing for a long time, and was not living in a house, but in the tombs.

nasb@Luke:8:28 @Seeing Jesus, he cried out and fell before Him, and said in a loud voice, " What business do we have with each other, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You, do not torment me."

nasb@Luke:8:29 @For He had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For it had seized him many times; and he was bound with chains and shackles and kept under guard, and yet he would break his bonds and be driven by the demon into the desert.

nasb@Luke:8:30 @And Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" And he said, " Legion"; for many demons had entered him.

nasb@Luke:8:33 @And the demons came out of the man and entered the swine; and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned.

nasb@Luke:8:34 @When the herdsmen saw what had happened, they ran away and reported it in the city and out in the country.

nasb@Luke:8:35 @The people went out to see what had happened; and they came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting down at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind; and they became frightened.

nasb@Luke:8:40 @And as Jesus returned, the people welcomed Him, for they had all been waiting for Him.

nasb@Luke:8:41 @And there came a man named Jairus, and he was an official of the synagogue; and he fell at Jesus' feet, and began to implore Him to come to his house;

nasb@Luke:8:44 @came up behind Him and touched the fringe of His cloak, and immediately her hemorrhage stopped.

nasb@Luke:8:45 @And Jesus said, "Who is the one who touched Me?" And while they were all denying it, Peter said, " Master, the people are crowding and pressing in on You."

nasb@Luke:8:46 @But Jesus said, "Someone did touch Me, for I was aware that power had gone out of Me."

nasb@Luke:8:47 @When the woman saw that she had not escaped notice, she came trembling and fell down before Him, and declared in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched Him, and how she had been immediately healed.

nasb@Luke:8:49 @While He was still speaking, someone came from the house of the synagogue official, saying, "Your daughter has died; do not trouble the Teacher anymore."

nasb@Luke:8:51 @When He came to the house, He did not allow anyone to enter with Him, except Peter and John and James, and the girl's father and mother.

nasb@Luke:8:52 @Now they were all weeping and lamenting for her; but He said, "Stop weeping, for she has not died, but is asleep."

nasb@Luke:8:55 @And her spirit returned, and she got up immediately; and He gave orders for something to be given her to eat.

nasb@Luke:9:7 @Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was happening; and he was greatly perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,

nasb@Luke:9:8 @and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the prophets of old had risen again.

nasb@Luke:9:12 @Now the day was ending, and the twelve came and said to Him, "Send the crowd away, that they may go into the surrounding villages and countryside and find lodging and get something to eat; for here we are in a desolate place."

nasb@Luke:9:13 @But He said to them, "You give them something to eat!" And they said, "We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless perhaps we go and buy food for all these people."

nasb@Luke:9:14 @(For there were about five thousand men.) And He said to His disciples, "Have them sit down to eat in groups of about fifty each."

nasb@Luke:9:23 @And He was saying to them all, " If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me.

nasb@Luke:9:26" @ For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when He comes in His glory, and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.

nasb@Luke:9:27" @But I say to you truthfully, there are some of those standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God."

nasb@Luke:9:28 @Some eight days after these sayings, He took along Peter and John and James, and went up on the mountain to pray.

nasb@Luke:9:29 @And while He was praying, the appearance of His face became different, and His clothing became white and gleaming.

nasb@Luke:9:30 @And behold, two men were talking with Him; and they were Moses and Elijah,

nasb@Luke:9:32 @Now Peter and his companions had been overcome with sleep; but when they were fully awake, they saw His glory and the two men standing with Him.

nasb@Luke:9:34 @While he was saying this, a cloud formed and began to overshadow them; and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.

nasb@Luke:9:35 @Then a voice came out of the cloud, saying, " This is My Son, My Chosen One; listen to Him!"

nasb@Luke:9:37 @On the next day, when they came down from the mountain, a large crowd met Him.

nasb@Luke:9:42 @While he was still approaching, the demon slammed him to the ground and threw him into a convulsion. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy and gave him back to his father.

nasb@Luke:9:44" @Let these words sink into your ears; for the Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men."

nasb@Luke:9:45 @But they did not understand this statement, and it was concealed from them so that they would not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask Him about this statement.

nasb@Luke:9:46 @An argument started among them as to which of them might be the greatest.

nasb@Luke:9:48 @and said to them, " Whoever receives this child in My name receives Me, and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me; for the one who is least among all of you, this is the one who is great."

nasb@Luke:9:49 @John answered and said, " Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name; and we tried to prevent him because he does not follow along with us."

nasb@Luke:9:52 @and He sent messengers on ahead of Him, and they went and entered a village of the Samaritans to make arrangements for Him.

nasb@Luke:9:54 @When His disciples James and John saw this, they said, "Lord, do You want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them?"

nasb@Luke:9:56 @for the Son of Man did not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them."] And they went on to another village.

nasb@Luke:9:57 @As they were going along the road, someone said to Him, "I will follow You wherever You go."

nasb@Luke:9:59 @And He said to another, " Follow Me." But he said, "Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father."

nasb@Luke:9:61 @Another also said, "I will follow You, Lord; but first permit me to say good-bye to those at home."

nasb@Luke:10:1 @Now after this the Lord appointed seventy others, and sent them in pairs ahead of Him to every city and place where He Himself was going to come.

nasb@Luke:10:9 @and heal those in it who are sick, and say to them, ' The kingdom of God has come near to you.'

nasb@Luke:10:11 @' Even the dust of your city which clings to our feet we wipe off in protest against you; yet be sure of this, that the kingdom of God has come near.'

nasb@Luke:10:13" @ Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles had been performed in Tyre and Sidon which occurred in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

nasb@Luke:10:14" @But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.

nasb@Luke:10:16" @ The one who listens to you listens to Me, and the one who rejects you rejects Me; and he who rejects Me rejects the One who sent Me."

nasb@Luke:10:17 @The seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name."

nasb@Luke:10:20" @Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are recorded in heaven."

nasb@Luke:10:21 @At that very time He rejoiced greatly in the Holy Spirit, and said, "I praise You, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to infants. Yes, Father, for this way was well-pleasing in Your sight.

nasb@Luke:10:22" @ All things have been handed over to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son wills to reveal Him."

nasb@Luke:10:32" @Likewise a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.

nasb@Luke:10:33" @But a Samaritan, who was on a journey, came upon him; and when he saw him, he felt compassion,

nasb@Luke:10:34 @and came to him and bandaged up his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them; and he put him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn and took care of him.

nasb@Luke:10:37 @And he said, "The one who showed mercy toward him." Then Jesus said to him, "Go and do the same."

nasb@Luke:10:38 @Now as they were traveling along, He entered a village; and a woman named Martha welcomed Him into her home.

nasb@Luke:10:40 @But Martha was distracted with all her preparations; and she came up to Him and said, "Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to do all the serving alone? Then tell her to help me."

nasb@Luke:11:2 @And He said to them, " When you pray, say- ' Father, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come.

nasb@Luke:11:5 @Then He said to them, "Suppose one of you has a friend, and goes to him at midnight and says to him, 'Friend, lend me three loaves;

nasb@Luke:11:6 @for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him';

nasb@Luke:11:7 @and from inside he answers and says, 'Do not bother me; the door has already been shut and my children and I are in bed; I cannot get up and give you anything.'

nasb@Luke:11:25" @And when it comes, it finds it swept and put in order.

nasb@Luke:11:26" @Then it goes and takes along seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they go in and live there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first."

nasb@Luke:11:27 @While Jesus was saying these things, one of the women in the crowd raised her voice and said to Him, " Blessed is the womb that bore You and the breasts at which You nursed."

nasb@Luke:11:3" @Accordingly, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in the inner rooms will be proclaimed upon the housetops.

nasb@Luke:11:8" @And I say to you, everyone who confesses Me before men, the Son of Man will confess him also before the angels of God;

nasb@Luke:11:9 @but he who denies Me before men will be denied before the angels of God.

nasb@Luke:11:10" @ And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him.

nasb@Luke:11:13 @Someone in the crowd said to Him, "Teacher, tell my brother to divide the family inheritance with me."

nasb@Luke:11:14 @But He said to him, " Man, who appointed Me a judge or arbitrator over you?"

nasb@Luke:11:19 @'And I will say to my soul, "Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years to come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry."'

nasb@Luke:11:28" @But if God so clothes the grass in the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you? You men of little faith!

nasb@Luke:11:33" @ Sell your possessions and give to charity; make yourselves money belts which do not wear out, an unfailing treasure in heaven, where no thief comes near nor moth destroys.

nasb@Luke:11:36" @Be like men who are waiting for their master when he returns from the wedding feast, so that they may immediately open the door to him when he comes and knocks.

nasb@Luke:11:37" @Blessed are those slaves whom the master will find on the alert when he comes; truly I say to you, that he will gird himself to serve, and have them recline at the table, and will come up and wait on them.

nasb@Luke:11:38" @ Whether he comes in the second watch, or even in the third, and finds them so, blessed are those slaves.

nasb@Luke:11:42 @And the Lord said, " Who then is the faithful and sensible steward, whom his master will put in charge of his servants, to give them their rations at the proper time?

nasb@Luke:11:43" @Blessed is that slave whom his master finds so doing when he comes.

nasb@Luke:11:45" @But if that slave says in his heart, 'My master will be a long time in coming,' and begins to beat the slaves, both men and women, and to eat and drink and get drunk;

nasb@Luke:11:46 @the master of that slave will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know, and will cut him in pieces, and assign him a place with the unbelievers.

nasb@Luke:11:49" @I have come to cast fire upon the earth; and how I wish it were already kindled!

nasb@Luke:11:51" @ Do you suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather division;

nasb@Luke:11:52 @for from now on five members in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three.

nasb@Luke:11:54 @And He was also saying to the crowds, " When you see a cloud rising in the west, immediately you say, 'A shower is coming,' and so it turns out.

nasb@Luke:11:56" @You hypocrites! You know how to analyze the appearance of the earth and the sky, but why do you not analyze this present time?

nasb@Luke:12:1 @Now on the same occasion there were some present who reported to Him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

nasb@Luke:12:4" @Or do you suppose that those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them were worse culprits than all the men who live in Jerusalem?

nasb@Luke:12:6 @And He began telling this parable- "A man had a fig tree which had been planted in his vineyard; and he came looking for fruit on it and did not find any.

nasb@Luke:12:7" @And he said to the vineyard-keeper, 'Behold, for three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree without finding any. Cut it down! Why does it even use up the ground?'

nasb@Luke:12:13 @And He laid His hands on her; and immediately she was made erect again and began glorifying God.

nasb@Luke:12:14 @But the synagogue official, indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, began saying to the crowd in response, " There are six days in which work should be done; so come during them and get healed, and not on the Sabbath day."

nasb@Luke:12:19" @It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and threw into his own garden; and it grew and became a tree, and THE BIRDS OF THE AIR NESTED IN ITS BRANCHES."

nasb@Luke:12:23 @And someone said to Him, "Lord, are there just a few who are being saved?" And He said to them,

nasb@Luke:12:27 @and He will say, 'I tell you, I do not know where you are from; DEPART FROM ME, ALL YOU EVILDOERS.'

nasb@Luke:12:29" @And they will come from east and west and from north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God.

nasb@Luke:12:30" @And behold, some are last who will be first and some are first who will be last."

nasb@Luke:12:31 @Just at that time some Pharisees approached, saying to Him, "Go away, leave here, for Herod wants to kill You."

nasb@Luke:12:35" @Behold, your house is left to you desolate; and I say to you, you will not see Me until the time comes when you say, ' BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD!'"

nasb@Luke:13:5 @And He said to them, " Which one of you will have a son or an ox fall into a well, and will not immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?"

nasb@Luke:13:8" @When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not take the place of honor, for someone more distinguished than you may have been invited by him,

nasb@Luke:13:9 @and he who invited you both will come and say to you, 'Give your place to this man,' and then in disgrace you proceed to occupy the last place.

nasb@Luke:13:10" @But when you are invited, go and recline at the last place, so that when the one who has invited you comes, he may say to you, 'Friend, move up higher'; then you will have honor in the sight of all who are at the table with you.

nasb@Luke:13:12 @And He also went on to say to the one who had invited Him, "When you give a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, otherwise they may also invite you in return and that will be your repayment.

nasb@Luke:13:13" @But when you give a reception, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind,

nasb@Luke:13:14 @and you will be blessed, since they do not have the means to repay you; for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous."

nasb@Luke:13:17 @and at the dinner hour he sent his slave to say to those who had been invited, 'Come; for everything is ready now.'

nasb@Luke:13:18" @But they all alike began to make excuses. The first one said to him, 'I have bought a piece of land and I need to go out and look at it; please consider me excused.'

nasb@Luke:13:19" @Another one said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out; please consider me excused.'

nasb@Luke:13:20" @Another one said, ' I have married a wife, and for that reason I cannot come.'

nasb@Luke:13:21" @And the slave came back and reported this to his master. Then the head of the household became angry and said to his slave, 'Go out at once into the streets and lanes of the city and bring in here the poor and crippled and blind and lame.'

nasb@Luke:13:23" @And the master said to the slave, 'Go out into the highways and along the hedges, and compel them to come in, so that my house may be filled.

nasb@Luke:13:24 @'For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste of my dinner.'"

nasb@Luke:13:26" @ If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple.

nasb@Luke:13:27" @Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple.

nasb@Luke:13:31" @Or what king, when he sets out to meet another king in battle, will not first sit down and consider whether he is strong enough with ten thousand men to encounter the one coming against him with twenty thousand?

nasb@Luke:13:34" @Therefore, salt is good; but if even salt has become tasteless, with what will it be seasoned?

nasb@Luke:14:6" @And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!'

nasb@Luke:14:7" @I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.

nasb@Luke:14:9" @When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I had lost!'

nasb@Luke:14:10" @In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents."

nasb@Luke:14:12" @The younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me the share of the estate that falls to me.' So he divided his wealth between them.

nasb@Luke:14:17" @But when he came to his senses, he said, 'How many of my father's hired men have more than enough bread, but I am dying here with hunger!

nasb@Luke:14:19 @I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hired men."'

nasb@Luke:14:20" @So he got up and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion for him, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.

nasb@Luke:14:24 @for this son of mine was dead and has come to life again; he was lost and has been found.' And they began to celebrate.

nasb@Luke:14:25" @Now his older son was in the field, and when he came and approached the house, he heard music and dancing.

nasb@Luke:14:27" @And he said to him, 'Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has received him back safe and sound.'

nasb@Luke:14:28" @But he became angry and was not willing to go in; and his father came out and began pleading with him.

nasb@Luke:14:29" @But he answered and said to his father, 'Look! For so many years I have been serving you and I have never neglected a command of yours; and yet you have never given me a young goat, so that I might celebrate with my friends;

nasb@Luke:14:30 @but when this son of yours came, who has devoured your wealth with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.'

nasb@Luke:14:31" @And he said to him, 'Son, you have always been with me, and all that is mine is yours.

nasb@Luke:14:2" @And he called him and said to him, 'What is this I hear about you? Give an accounting of your management, for you can no longer be manager.'

nasb@Luke:14:3" @The manager said to himself, 'What shall I do, since my master is taking the management away from me? I am not strong enough to dig; I am ashamed to beg.

nasb@Luke:14:4 @'I know what I shall do, so that when I am removed from the management people will welcome me into their homes.'

nasb@Luke:14:6" @And he said, 'A hundred measures of oil.' And he said to him, 'Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.'

nasb@Luke:14:7" @Then he said to another, 'And how much do you owe?' And he said, 'A hundred measures of wheat.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, and write eighty.'

nasb@Luke:14:9" @And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by means of the wealth of unrighteousness, so that when it fails, they will receive you into the eternal dwellings.

nasb@Luke:14:15 @And He said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of men, but God knows your hearts; for that which is highly esteemed among men is detestable in the sight of God.

nasb@Luke:14:16" @ The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John; since that time the gospel of the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.

nasb@Luke:14:20" @And a poor man named Lazarus was laid at his gate, covered with sores,

nasb@Luke:14:23" @In Hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far away and Lazarus in his bosom.

nasb@Luke:14:24" @And he cried out and said, ' Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool off my tongue, for I am in agony in this flame.'

nasb@Luke:14:25" @But Abraham said, 'Child, remember that during your life you received your good things, and likewise Lazarus bad things; but now he is being comforted here, and you are in agony.

nasb@Luke:14:26 @'And besides all this, between us and you there is a great chasm fixed, so that those who wish to come over from here to you will not be able, and that none may cross over from there to us.'

nasb@Luke:14:28 @for I have five brothers--in order that he may warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.'

nasb@Luke:14:30" @But he said, 'No, father Abraham, but if someone goes to them from the dead, they will repent!'

nasb@Luke:14:31" @But he said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.'"

nasb@Luke:14:17 @He said to His disciples, " It is inevitable that stumbling blocks come, but woe to him through whom they come!

nasb@Luke:14:4" @And if he sins against you seven times a day, and returns to you seven times, saying, 'I repent,' forgive him."

nasb@Luke:14:7" @Which of you, having a slave plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he has come in from the field, 'Come immediately and sit down to eat'?

nasb@Luke:14:8" @But will he not say to him, ' Prepare something for me to eat, and properly clothe yourself and serve me while I eat and drink; and afterward you may eat and drink'?

nasb@Luke:14:12 @As He entered a village, ten leprous men who stood at a distance met Him;

nasb@Luke:14:13 @and they raised their voices, saying, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!"

nasb@Luke:14:22 @And He said to the disciples, " The days will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.

nasb@Luke:14:27 @they were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.

nasb@Luke:14:28" @It was the same as happened in the days of Lot- they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building;

nasb@Luke:14:30" @It will be just the same on the day that the Son of Man is revealed.

nasb@Luke:14:32" @ Remember Lot's wife.

nasb@Luke:14:35" @ There will be two women grinding at the same place; one will be taken and the other will be left.

nasb@Luke:14:36 @[" Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other will be left."]

nasb@Luke:15:1 @Now He was telling them a parable to show that at all times they ought to pray and not to lose heart,

nasb@Luke:15:3" @There was a widow in that city, and she kept coming to him, saying, 'Give me legal protection from my opponent.'

nasb@Luke:15:5 @yet because this widow bothers me, I will give her legal protection, otherwise by continually coming she will wear me out.'"

nasb@Luke:15:8" @I tell you that He will bring about justice for them quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?"

nasb@Luke:15:9 @And He also told this parable to some people who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and viewed others with contempt-

nasb@Luke:15:10" @Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.

nasb@Luke:15:13" @But the tax collector, standing some distance away, was even unwilling to lift up his eyes to heaven, but was beating his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, the sinner!'

nasb@Luke:15:16 @But Jesus called for them, saying, "Permit the children to come to Me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

nasb@Luke:15:19 @And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone.

nasb@Luke:15:20" @You know the commandments, ' DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY, DO NOT MURDER, DO NOT STEAL, DO NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS, HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER.'"

nasb@Luke:15:22 @When Jesus heard this, He said to him, "One thing you still lack; sell all that you possess and distribute it to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me."

nasb@Luke:15:23 @But when he had heard these things, he became very sad, for he was extremely rich.

nasb@Luke:15:25" @For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

nasb@Luke:15:28 @Peter said, "Behold, we have left our own homes and followed You."

nasb@Luke:15:30 @who will not receive many times as much at this time and in the age to come, eternal life."

nasb@Luke:15:34 @But the disciples understood none of these things, and the meaning of this statement was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend the things that were said.

nasb@Luke:15:38 @And he called out, saying, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"

nasb@Luke:15:39 @Those who led the way were sternly telling him to be quiet; but he kept crying out all the more, " Son of David, have mercy on me!"

nasb@Luke:15:40 @And Jesus stopped and commanded that he be brought to Him; and when he came near, He questioned him,

nasb@Luke:15:41" @What do you want Me to do for you?" And he said, "Lord, I want to regain my sight!"

nasb@Luke:15:43 @Immediately he regained his sight and began following Him, glorifying God; and when all the people saw it, they gave praise to God.

nasb@Luke:16:2 @And there was a man called by the name of Zaccheus; he was a chief tax collector and he was rich.

nasb@Luke:16:5 @When Jesus came to the place, He looked up and said to him, "Zaccheus, hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house."

nasb@Luke:16:6 @And he hurried and came down and received Him gladly.

nasb@Luke:16:8 @Zaccheus stopped and said to the Lord, "Behold, Lord, half of my possessions I will give to the poor, and if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I will give back four times as much."

nasb@Luke:16:9 @And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, because he, too, is a son of Abraham.

nasb@Luke:16:10" @For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost."

nasb@Luke:16:11 @While they were listening to these things, Jesus went on to tell a parable, because He was near Jerusalem, and they supposed that the kingdom of God was going to appear immediately.

nasb@Luke:16:13" @And he called ten of his slaves, and gave them ten minas and said to them, 'Do business with this until I come back.'

nasb@Luke:16:18" @The second came, saying, 'Your mina, master, has made five minas.'

nasb@Luke:16:20" @Another came, saying, 'Master, here is your mina, which I kept put away in a handkerchief;

nasb@Luke:16:23 @'Then why did you not put my money in the bank, and having come, I would have collected it with interest?'

nasb@Luke:16:27" @But these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them in my presence."

nasb@Luke:16:38 @shouting- " BLESSED IS THE KING WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD; Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"

nasb@Luke:16:39 @Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Him, "Teacher, rebuke Your disciples."

nasb@Luke:16:40 @But Jesus answered, "I tell you, if these become silent, the stones will cry out!"

nasb@Luke:16:43" @For the days will come upon you when your enemies will throw up a barricade against you, and surround you and hem you in on every side,

nasb@Luke:16:44 @and they will level you to the ground and your children within you, and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not recognize the time of your visitation."

nasb@Luke:16:47 @And He was teaching daily in the temple; but the chief priests and the scribes and the leading men among the people were trying to destroy Him,

nasb@Luke:17:3 @Jesus answered and said to them, "I will also ask you a question, and you tell Me-

nasb@Luke:17:4" @Was the baptism of John from heaven or from men?"

nasb@Luke:17:6" @But if we say, 'From men,' all the people will stone us to death, for they are convinced that John was a prophet."

nasb@Luke:17:7 @So they answered that they did not know where it came from.

nasb@Luke:17:9 @And He began to tell the people this parable- "A man planted a vineyard and rented it out to vine-growers, and went on a journey for a long time.

nasb@Luke:17:10" @At the harvest time he sent a slave to the vine-growers, so that they would give him some of the produce of the vineyard; but the vine-growers beat him and sent him away empty-handed.

nasb@Luke:17:11" @And he proceeded to send another slave; and they beat him also and treated him shamefully and sent him away empty-handed.

nasb@Luke:17:16" @He will come and destroy these vine-growers and will give the vineyard to others." When they heard it, they said, " May it never be!"

nasb@Luke:17:17 @But Jesus looked at them and said, "What then is this that is written- ' THE STONE WHICH THE BUILDERS REJECTED, THIS BECAME THE CHIEF CORNER stone'?

nasb@Luke:17:18" @ Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces; but on whomever it falls, it will scatter him like dust."

nasb@Luke:17:20 @So they watched Him, and sent spies who pretended to be righteous, in order that they might catch Him in some statement, so that they could deliver Him to the rule and the authority of the governor.

nasb@Luke:17:24" @Show Me a denarius. Whose likeness and inscription does it have?" They said, "Caesar's."

nasb@Luke:17:26 @And they were unable to catch Him in a saying in the presence of the people; and being amazed at His answer, they became silent.

nasb@Luke:17:27 @Now there came to Him some of the Sadducees (who say that there is no resurrection),

nasb@Luke:17:31 @and the third married her; and in the same way all seven died, leaving no children.

nasb@Luke:17:39 @Some of the scribes answered and said, "Teacher, You have spoken well."

nasb@Luke:18:5 @And while some were talking about the temple, that it was adorned with beautiful stones and votive gifts, He said,

nasb@Luke:18:6" @As for these things which you are looking at, the days will come in which there will not be left one stone upon another which will not be torn down."

nasb@Luke:18:8 @And He said, "See to it that you are not misled; for many will come in My name, saying, ' I am He,' and, 'The time is near.' Do not go after them.

nasb@Luke:18:9" @When you hear of wars and disturbances, do not be terrified; for these things must take place first, but the end does not follow immediately."

nasb@Luke:18:12" @But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and will persecute you, delivering you to the synagogues and prisons, bringing you before kings and governors for My name's sake.

nasb@Luke:18:16" @But you will be betrayed even by parents and brothers and relatives and friends, and they will put some of you to death,

nasb@Luke:18:17 @and you will be hated by all because of My name.

nasb@Luke:18:24 @and they will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations; and Jerusalem will be trampled under foot by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

nasb@Luke:18:26 @men fainting from fear and the expectation of the things which are coming upon the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

nasb@Luke:18:30 @as soon as they put forth leaves, you see it and know for yourselves that summer is now near.

nasb@Luke:18:34" @ Be on guard, so that your hearts will not be weighted down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of life, and that day will not come on you suddenly like a trap;

nasb@Luke:18:35 @for it will come upon all those who dwell on the face of all the earth.

nasb@Luke:18:36" @But keep on the alert at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man."

nasb@Luke:18:38 @And all the people would get up early in the morning to come to Him in the temple to listen to Him.

nasb@Luke:19:7 @Then came the first day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.

nasb@Luke:19:10 @And He said to them, "When you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house that he enters.

nasb@Luke:19:14 @When the hour had come, He reclined at the table, and the apostles with Him.

nasb@Luke:19:18 @for I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine from now on until the kingdom of God comes."

nasb@Luke:19:19 @And when He had taken some bread and given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, "This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me."

nasb@Luke:19:20 @And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood.

nasb@Luke:19:21" @ But behold, the hand of the one betraying Me is with Mine on the table.

nasb@Luke:19:26" @But it is not this way with you, but the one who is the greatest among you must become like the youngest, and the leader like the servant.

nasb@Luke:19:28" @You are those who have stood by Me in My trials;

nasb@Luke:19:29 @and just as My Father has granted Me a kingdom, I grant you

nasb@Luke:19:34 @And He said, "I say to you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know Me."

nasb@Luke:19:37" @For I tell you that this which is written must be fulfilled in Me, ' AND HE WAS NUMBERED WITH TRANSGRESSORS'; for that which refers to Me has its fulfillment."

nasb@Luke:19:39 @And He came out and proceeded as was His custom to the Mount of Olives; and the disciples also followed Him.

nasb@Luke:19:42 @saying, "Father, if You are willing, remove this cup from Me; yet not My will, but Yours be done."

nasb@Luke:19:44 @And being in agony He was praying very fervently; and His sweat became like drops of blood, falling down upon the ground.

nasb@Luke:19:45 @When He rose from prayer, He came to the disciples and found them sleeping from sorrow,

nasb@Luke:19:47 @While He was still speaking, behold, a crowd came, and the one called Judas, one of the twelve, was preceding them; and he approached Jesus to kiss Him.

nasb@Luke:19:52 @Then Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders who had come against Him, "Have you come out with swords and clubs as you would against a robber?

nasb@Luke:19:53" @While I was with you daily in the temple, you did not lay hands on Me; but this hour and the power of darkness are yours."

nasb@Luke:19:60 @But Peter said, "Man, I do not know what you are talking about." Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

nasb@Luke:19:61 @The Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had told him, " Before a rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times."

nasb@Luke:19:63 @Now the men who were holding Jesus in custody were mocking Him and beating Him,

nasb@Luke:20:7 @And when he learned that He belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who himself also was in Jerusalem at that time.

nasb@Luke:20:8 @Now Herod was very glad when he saw Jesus; for he had wanted to see Him for a long time, because he had been hearing about Him and was hoping to see some sign performed by Him.

nasb@Luke:20:9 @And he questioned Him at some length; but He answered him nothing.

nasb@Luke:20:10 @And the chief priests and the scribes were standing there, accusing Him vehemently.

nasb@Luke:20:12 @Now Herod and Pilate became friends with one another that very day; for before they had been enemies with each other.

nasb@Luke:20:14 @and said to them, "You brought this man to me as one who incites the people to rebellion, and behold, having examined Him before you, I have found no guilt in this man regarding the charges which you make against Him.

nasb@Luke:20:22 @And he said to them the third time, "Why, what evil has this man done? I have found in Him no guilt demanding death; therefore I will punish Him and release Him."

nasb@Luke:20:27 @And following Him was a large crowd of the people, and of women who were mourning and lamenting Him.

nasb@Luke:20:28 @But Jesus turning to them said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, stop weeping for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

nasb@Luke:20:33 @When they came to the place called The Skull, there they crucified Him and the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.

nasb@Luke:20:34 @But Jesus was saying, " Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing." And they cast lots, dividing up His garments among themselves.

nasb@Luke:20:40 @But the other answered, and rebuking him said, "Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation?

nasb@Luke:20:42 @And he was saying, "Jesus, remember me when You come in Your kingdom!"

nasb@Luke:20:43 @And He said to him, "Truly I say to you, today you shall be with Me in Paradise."

nasb@Luke:20:48 @And all the crowds who came together for this spectacle, when they observed what had happened, began to return, beating their breasts.

nasb@Luke:20:49 @And all His acquaintances and the women who accompanied Him from Galilee were standing at a distance, seeing these things.

nasb@Luke:20:50 @And a man named Joseph, who was a member of the Council, a good and righteous man

nasb@Luke:20:55 @Now the women who had come with Him out of Galilee followed, and saw the tomb and how His body was laid.

nasb@Luke:20:56 @Then they returned and prepared spices and perfumes. And on the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.

nasb@Luke:21:1 @But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.

nasb@Luke:21:4 @While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men suddenly stood near them in dazzling clothing;

nasb@Luke:21:5 @and as the women were terrified and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, "Why do you seek the living One among the dead?

nasb@Luke:21:6" @He is not here, but He has risen. Remember how He spoke to you while He was still in Galilee,

nasb@Luke:21:7 @saying that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again."

nasb@Luke:21:8 @And they remembered His words,

nasb@Luke:21:10 @Now they were Mary Magdalene and Joanna and Mary the mother of James; also the other women with them were telling these things to the apostles.

nasb@Luke:21:12 @But Peter got up and ran to the tomb; stooping and looking in, he saw the linen wrappings only; and he went away to his home, marveling at what had happened.

nasb@Luke:21:13 @And behold, two of them were going that very day to a village named Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem.

nasb@Luke:21:18 @One of them, named Cleopas, answered and said to Him, "Are You the only one visiting Jerusalem and unaware of the things which have happened here in these days?"

nasb@Luke:21:22" @But also some women among us amazed us. When they were at the tomb early in the morning,

nasb@Luke:21:23 @and did not find His body, they came, saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said that He was alive.

nasb@Luke:21:24" @Some of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just exactly as the women also had said; but Him they did not see."

nasb@Luke:21:25 @And He said to them, "O foolish men and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken!

nasb@Luke:21:39" @ See My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself; touch Me and see, for a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have."

nasb@Luke:21:41 @While they still could not believe it because of their joy and amazement, He said to them, " Have you anything here to eat?"

nasb@Luke:21:44 @Now He said to them, " These are My words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things which are written about Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled."

nasb@Luke:21:47 @and that repentance for forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed in His name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.

nasb@John:1:3 @All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.

nasb@John:1:4 @In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men.

nasb@John:1:6 @There came a man sent from God, whose name was John.

nasb@John:1:7 @He came as a witness, to testify about the Light, so that all might believe through him.

nasb@John:1:8 @He was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.

nasb@John:1:11 @He came to His own, and those who were His own did not receive Him.

nasb@John:1:12 @But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name,

nasb@John:1:14 @And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.

nasb@John:1:15 @John testified about Him and cried out, saying, "This was He of whom I said, ' He who comes after me has a higher rank than I, for He existed before me.'"

nasb@John:1:18 @No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him.

nasb@John:1:27" @It is He who comes after me, the thong of whose sandal I am not worthy to untie."

nasb@John:1:30" @This is He on behalf of whom I said, ' After me comes a Man who has a higher rank than I, for He existed before me.'

nasb@John:1:31" @I did not recognize Him, but so that He might be manifested to Israel, I came baptizing in water."

nasb@John:1:33" @I did not recognize Him, but He who sent me to baptize in water said to me, 'He upon whom you see the Spirit descending and remaining upon Him, this is the One who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.'

nasb@John:1:38 @And Jesus turned and saw them following, and said to them, "What do you seek?" They said to Him, " Rabbi (which translated means Teacher), where are You staying?"

nasb@John:1:39 @He said to them, "Come, and you will see." So they came and saw where He was staying; and they stayed with Him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

nasb@John:1:41 @He found first his own brother Simon and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (which translated means Christ).

nasb@John:1:43 @The next day He purposed to go into Galilee, and He found Philip. And Jesus said to him, " Follow Me."

nasb@John:1:46 @Nathanael said to him, " Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."

nasb@John:1:48 @Nathanael said to Him, "How do You know me?" Jesus answered and said to him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."

nasb@John:2:4 @And Jesus said to her, " Woman, what does that have to do with us? My hour has not yet come."

nasb@John:2:8 @And He said to them, "Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter." So they took it to him.

nasb@John:2:9 @When the headwaiter tasted the water which had become wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter called the bridegroom,

nasb@John:2:17 @His disciples remembered that it was written, " ZEAL FOR YOUR HOUSE WILL CONSUME ME."

nasb@John:2:22 @So when He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said this; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.

nasb@John:2:23 @Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing.

nasb@John:2:24 @But Jesus, on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men,

nasb@John:3:1 @Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews;

nasb@John:3:2 @this man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, " Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him."

nasb@John:3:4 @Nicodemus said to Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born, can he?"

nasb@John:3:8" @ The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit."

nasb@John:3:18" @ He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

nasb@John:3:19" @This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil.

nasb@John:3:20" @ For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.

nasb@John:3:21" @But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God."

nasb@John:3:22 @After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He was spending time with them and baptizing.

nasb@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 testified, behold, He is baptizing and all are coming to Him."

nasb@John:3:31" @ He who comes from above is above all, he who is of the earth is from the earth and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.

nasb@John:3:34" @For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for He gives the Spirit without measure.

nasb@John:4:5 @So He came to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph;

nasb@John:4:7 @There came a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give Me a drink."

nasb@John:4:9 @Therefore the Samaritan woman said to Him, "How is it that You, being a Jew, ask me for a drink since I am a Samaritan woman?" (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)

nasb@John:4:10 @Jesus answered 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 asked Him, and He would have given you living water."

nasb@John:4:14 @but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life."

nasb@John:4:15 @The woman said to Him, "Sir, give me this water, so I will not be thirsty nor come all the way here to draw."

nasb@John:4:16 @He said to her, "Go, call your husband and come here."

nasb@John:4:20" @ Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you people say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship."

nasb@John:4:21 @Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe Me, an hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

nasb@John:4:25 @The woman said to Him, "I know that Messiah is coming ( He who is called Christ); when that One comes, He will declare all things to us."

nasb@John:4:27 @At this point His disciples came, and they were amazed that He had been speaking with a woman, yet no one said, "What do You seek?" or, "Why do You speak with her?"

nasb@John:4:28 @So the woman left her waterpot, and went into the city and said to the men,

nasb@John:4:29" @Come, see a man who told me all the things that I have done; this is not the Christ, is it?"

nasb@John:4:31 @Meanwhile the disciples were urging Him, saying, " Rabbi, eat."

nasb@John:4:34 @Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to accomplish His work.

nasb@John:4:35" @Do you not say, 'There are yet four months, and then comes the harvest'? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look on the fields, that they are white for harvest.

nasb@John:4:39 @From that city many of the Samaritans believed in Him because of the word of the woman who testified, " He told me all the things that I have done."

nasb@John:4:40 @So when the Samaritans came to Jesus, they were asking Him to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.

nasb@John:4:45 @So when He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all the things that He did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they themselves also went to the feast.

nasb@John:4:46 @Therefore He came again to Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a royal official whose son was sick at Capernaum.

nasb@John:4:47 @When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and was imploring Him to come down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.

nasb@John:4:49 @The royal official said to Him, "Sir, come down before my child dies."

nasb@John:4:51 @As he was now going down, his slaves met him, saying that his son was living.

nasb@John:4:54 @This is again a second sign that Jesus performed when He had come out of Judea into Galilee.

nasb@John:5:3 @In these lay a multitude of those who were sick, blind, lame, and withered, [ waiting for the moving of the waters;

nasb@John:5:6 @When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had already been a long time in that condition, He said to him, "Do you wish to get well?"

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

nasb@John:5:9 @Immediately the man became well, and picked up his pallet and began to walk. Now it was the Sabbath on that day.

nasb@John:5:11 @But he answered them, "He who made me well was the one who said to me, 'Pick up your pallet and walk.'"

nasb@John:5:14 @Afterward Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, "Behold, you have become well; do not sin anymore, so that nothing worse happens to you."

nasb@John:5:19 @Therefore Jesus answered and was saying to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, unless it is something He sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, these things the Son also does in like manner.

nasb@John:5:22" @For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son,

nasb@John:5:24" @Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

nasb@John:5:27 @and He gave Him authority to execute judgment, because He is the Son of Man.

nasb@John:5:29 @and will come forth; those who did the good deeds to a resurrection of life, those who committed the evil deeds to a resurrection of judgment.

nasb@John:5:30" @ I can do nothing on My own initiative. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

nasb@John:5:32" @There is another who testifies of Me, and I know that the testimony which He gives about Me is true.

nasb@John:5:36" @But the testimony which I have is greater than the testimony of John; for the works which the Father has given Me to accomplish--the very works that I do--testify about Me, that the Father has sent Me.

nasb@John:5:37" @And the Father who sent Me, He has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time nor seen His form.

nasb@John:5:39" @ You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is these that testify about Me;

nasb@John:5:40 @and you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life.

nasb@John:5:41" @ I do not receive glory from men;

nasb@John:5:43" @I have come in My Father's name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

nasb@John:5:46" @For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me, for he wrote about Me.

nasb@John:6:10 @Jesus said, "Have the people sit down." Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

nasb@John:6:12 @When they were filled, He said to His disciples, "Gather up the leftover fragments so that nothing will be lost."

nasb@John:6:13 @So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.

nasb@John:6:14 @Therefore when the people saw the sign which He had performed, they said, "This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world."

nasb@John:6:15 @So Jesus, perceiving that they were intending to come and take Him by force to make Him king, withdrew again to the mountain by Himself alone.

nasb@John:6:16 @Now when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,

nasb@John:6:17 @and after getting into a boat, they started to cross the sea to Capernaum. It had already become dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.

nasb@John:6:21 @So they were willing to receive Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.

nasb@John:6:23 @There came other small boats from Tiberias near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.

nasb@John:6:24 @So when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they themselves got into the small boats, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus.

nasb@John:6:26 @Jesus answered them and said, "Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled.

nasb@John:6:33" @For the bread of God is that which comes down out of heaven, and gives life to the world."

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

nasb@John:6:36" @But I said to you that you have seen Me, and yet do not believe.

nasb@John:6:37" @ All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out.

nasb@John:6:38" @For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

nasb@John:6:39" @This is the will of Him who sent Me, that of all that He has given Me I lose nothing, but raise it up on the last day.

nasb@John:6:41 @Therefore the Jews were grumbling about Him, because He said, "I am the bread that came down out of heaven."

nasb@John:6:42 @They were saying, " Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does He now say, ' I have come down out of heaven'?"

nasb@John:6:44" @No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up on the last day.

nasb@John:6:45" @It is written in the prophets, ' AND THEY SHALL ALL BE TAUGHT OF GOD.' Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father, comes to Me.

nasb@John:6:50" @This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die.

nasb@John:6:51" @ I am the living bread that came down out of heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread also which I will give for the life of the world is My flesh."

nasb@John:6:56" @He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him.

nasb@John:6:57" @As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats Me, he also will live because of Me.

nasb@John:6:58" @This is the bread which came down out of heaven; not as the fathers ate and died; he who eats this bread will live forever."

nasb@John:6:60 @Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this said, " This is a difficult statement; who can listen to it?"

nasb@John:6:64" @But there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was that would betray Him.

nasb@John:6:65 @And He was saying, "For this reason I have said to you, that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted him from the Father."

nasb@John:6:69" @We have believed and have come to know that You are the Holy One of God."

nasb@John:6:71 @Now He meant Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he, one of the twelve, was going to betray Him.

nasb@John:7:6 @So Jesus said to them, " My time is not yet here, but your time is always opportune.

nasb@John:7:7" @ The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I testify of it, that its deeds are evil.

nasb@John:7:8" @Go up to the feast yourselves; I do not go up to this feast because My time has not yet fully come."

nasb@John:7:12 @There was much grumbling among the crowds concerning Him; some were saying, "He is a good man"; others were saying, "No, on the contrary, He leads the people astray."

nasb@John:7:15 @The Jews then were astonished, saying, "How has this man become learned, having never been educated?"

nasb@John:7:16 @So Jesus answered them and said, " My teaching is not Mine, but His who sent Me.

nasb@John:7:19" @ Did not Moses give you the Law, and yet none of you carries out the Law? Why do you seek to kill Me?"

nasb@John:7:23" @ If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath so that the Law of Moses will not be broken, are you angry with Me because I made an entire man well on the Sabbath?

nasb@John:7:24" @Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment."

nasb@John:7:25 @So some of the people of Jerusalem were saying, "Is this not the man whom they are seeking to kill?

nasb@John:7:27" @However, we know where this man is from; but whenever the Christ may come, no one knows where He is from."

nasb@John:7:28 @Then Jesus cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, " You both know Me and know where I am from; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know.

nasb@John:7:29" @ I know Him, because I am from Him, and He sent Me."

nasb@John:7:30 @So they were seeking to seize Him; and no man laid his hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.

nasb@John:7:31 @But many of the crowd believed in Him; and they were saying, " When the Christ comes, He will not perform more signs than those which this man has, will He?"

nasb@John:7:33 @Therefore Jesus said, " For a little while longer I am with you, then I go to Him who sent Me.

nasb@John:7:34" @ You will seek Me, and will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come."

nasb@John:7:36" @What is this statement that He said, ' You will seek Me, and will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come'?"

nasb@John:7:37 @Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, " If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.

nasb@John:7:38" @He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, 'From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.'"

nasb@John:7:40 @Some of the people therefore, when they heard these words, were saying, "This certainly is the Prophet."

nasb@John:7:41 @Others were saying, "This is the Christ." Still others were saying, " Surely the Christ is not going to come from Galilee, is He?

nasb@John:7:42" @Has not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the descendants of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?"

nasb@John:7:44 @Some of them wanted to seize Him, but no one laid hands on Him.

nasb@John:7:45 @The officers then came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, "Why did you not bring Him?"

nasb@John:7:50 @Nicodemus (he who came to Him before, being one of them) said to them,

nasb@John:7:53 @[ Everyone went to his home.

nasb@John:8:2 @Early in the morning He came again into the temple, and all the people were coming to Him; and He sat down and began to teach them.

nasb@John:8:5" @Now in the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women; what then do You say?"

nasb@John:8:12 @Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, " I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life."

nasb@John:8:14 @Jesus answered and said to them, " Even if I testify about Myself, My testimony is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from or where I am going.

nasb@John:8:16" @But even if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone in it, but I and the Father who sent Me.

nasb@John:8:17" @Even in your law it has been written that the testimony of two men is true.

nasb@John:8:18" @I am He who testifies about Myself, and the Father who sent Me testifies about Me."

nasb@John:8:19 @So they were saying to Him, "Where is Your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither Me nor My Father; if you knew Me, you would know My Father also."

nasb@John:8:20 @These words He spoke in the treasury, as He taught in the temple; and no one seized Him, because His hour had not yet come.

nasb@John:8:21 @Then He said again to them, "I go away, and you will seek Me, and will die in your sin; where I am going, you cannot come."

nasb@John:8:22 @So the Jews were saying, "Surely He will not kill Himself, will He, since He says, ' Where I am going, you cannot come'?"

nasb@John:8:26" @I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and the things which I heard from Him, these I speak to the world."

nasb@John:8:28 @So Jesus said, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and I do nothing on My own initiative, but I speak these things as the Father taught Me.

nasb@John:8:29" @And He who sent Me is with Me; He has not left Me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to Him."

nasb@John:8:30 @As He spoke these things, many came to believe in Him.

nasb@John:8:33 @They answered Him, " We are Abraham's descendants and have never yet been enslaved to anyone; how is it that You say, 'You will become free'?"

nasb@John:8:37" @I know that you are Abraham's descendants; yet you seek to kill Me, because My word has no place in you.

nasb@John:8:40" @But as it is, you are seeking to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God; this Abraham did not do.

nasb@John:8:42 @Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and have come from God, for I have not even come on My own initiative, but He sent Me.

nasb@John:8:45" @But because I speak the truth, you do not believe Me.

nasb@John:8:46" @Which one of you convicts Me of sin? If I speak truth, why do you not believe Me?

nasb@John:8:49 @Jesus answered, "I do not have a demon; but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.

nasb@John:8:54 @Jesus answered, " If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing; it is My Father who glorifies Me, of whom you say, 'He is our God';

nasb@John:8:55 @and you have not come to know Him, but I know Him; and if I say that I do not know Him, I will be a liar like you, but I do know Him and keep His word.

nasb@John:9:4" @We must work the works of Him who sent Me as long as it is day; night is coming when no one can work.

nasb@John:9:7 @and said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is translated, Sent). So he went away and washed, and came back seeing.

nasb@John:9:11 @He answered, "The man who is called Jesus made clay, and anointed my eyes, and said to me, 'Go to Siloam and wash'; so I went away and washed, and I received sight."

nasb@John:9:13 @They brought to the Pharisees the man who was formerly blind.

nasb@John:9:16 @Therefore some of the Pharisees were saying, "This man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath." But others were saying, "How can a man who is a sinner perform such signs?" And there was a division among them.

nasb@John:9:24 @So a second time they called the man who had been blind, and said to him, " Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner."

nasb@John:9:27 @He answered them, " I told you already and you did not listen; why do you want to hear it again? You do not want to become His disciples too, do you?"

nasb@John:9:32" @Since the beginning of time it has never been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a person born blind.

nasb@John:9:39 @And Jesus said, " For judgment I came into this world, so that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind."

nasb@John:9:10" @Truly, truly, I say to you, he who does not enter by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbs up some other way, he is a thief and a robber.

nasb@John:9:3" @To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.

nasb@John:9:8" @All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them.

nasb@John:9:9" @ I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.

nasb@John:9:10" @The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.

nasb@John:9:14" @ I am the good shepherd, and I know My own and My own know Me,

nasb@John:9:15 @even as the Father knows Me and I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep.

nasb@John:9:16" @I have other sheep, which are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will hear My voice; and they will become one flock with one shepherd.

nasb@John:9:17" @For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life so that I may take it again.

nasb@John:9:18" @ No one has taken it away from Me, but I lay it down on My own initiative. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This commandment I received from My Father."

nasb@John:9:22 @At that time the Feast of the Dedication took place at Jerusalem;

nasb@John:9:25 @Jesus answered them, " I told you, and you do not believe; the works that I do in My Father's name, these testify of Me.

nasb@John:9:27" @My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;

nasb@John:9:29" @ My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand.

nasb@John:9:32 @Jesus answered them, "I showed you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?"

nasb@John:9:35" @If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),

nasb@John:9:37" @ If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me;

nasb@John:9:38 @but if I do them, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in Me, and I in the Father."

nasb@John:9:41 @Many came to Him and were saying, "While John performed no sign, yet everything John said about this man was true."

nasb@John:10:2 @It was the Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

nasb@John:10:17 @So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days.

nasb@John:10:19 @and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.

nasb@John:10:20 @Martha therefore, when she heard that Jesus was coming, went to meet Him, but Mary stayed at the house.

nasb@John:10:25 @Jesus said to her, " I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies,

nasb@John:10:26 @and everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this?"

nasb@John:10:27 @She said to Him, "Yes, Lord; I have believed that You are the Christ, the Son of God, even He who comes into the world."

nasb@John:10:30 @Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was still in the place where Martha met Him.

nasb@John:10:32 @Therefore, when Mary came where Jesus was, she saw Him, and fell at His feet, saying to Him, " Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died."

nasb@John:10:33 @When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her also weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and was troubled,

nasb@John:10:34 @and said, "Where have you laid him?" They said to Him, "Lord, come and see."

nasb@John:10:37 @But some of them said, "Could not this man, who opened the eyes of the blind man, have kept this man also from dying?"

nasb@John:10:38 @So Jesus, again being deeply moved within, came to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone was lying against it.

nasb@John:10:39 @Jesus said, "Remove the stone." Martha, the sister of the deceased, said to Him, "Lord, by this time there will be a stench, for he has been dead four days."

nasb@John:10:41 @So they removed the stone. Then Jesus raised His eyes, and said, " Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.

nasb@John:10:42" @I knew that You always hear Me; but because of the people standing around I said it, so that they may believe that You sent Me."

nasb@John:10:43 @When He had said these things, He cried out with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth."

nasb@John:10:44 @The man who had died came forth, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go."

nasb@John:10:45 @Therefore many of the Jews who came to Mary, and saw what He had done, believed in Him.

nasb@John:10:46 @But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them the things which Jesus had done.

nasb@John:10:48" @If we let Him go on like this, all men will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation."

nasb@John:10:56 @So they were seeking for Jesus, and were saying to one another as they stood in the temple, "What do you think; that He will not come to the feast at all?"

nasb@John:11:1 @Jesus, therefore, six days before the Passover, came to Bethany where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.

nasb@John:11:3 @Mary then took a pound of very costly perfume of pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped His feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

nasb@John:11:5" @Why was this perfume not sold for three hundred denarii and given to poor people?"

nasb@John:11:8" @ For you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have Me."

nasb@John:11:9 @The large crowd of the Jews then learned that He was there; and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might also see Lazarus, whom He raised from the dead.

nasb@John:11:12 @On the next day the large crowd who had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

nasb@John:11:13 @took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet Him, and began to shout, " Hosanna! BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD, even the King of Israel."

nasb@John:11:16 @These things His disciples did not understand at the first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of Him, and that they had done these things to Him.

nasb@John:11:18 @For this reason also the people went and met Him, because they heard that He had performed this sign.

nasb@John:11:20 @Now there were some Greeks among those who were going up to worship at the feast;

nasb@John:11:21 @these then came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and began to ask him, saying, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus."

nasb@John:11:22 @Philip came and told Andrew; Andrew and Philip came and told Jesus.

nasb@John:11:23 @And Jesus answered them, saying, " The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.

nasb@John:11:26" @If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also; if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.

nasb@John:11:27" @ Now My soul has become troubled; and what shall I say, ' Father, save Me from this hour'? But for this purpose I came to this hour.

nasb@John:11:28" @ Father, glorify Your name." Then a voice came out of heaven- "I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again."

nasb@John:11:30 @Jesus answered and said, " This voice has not come for My sake, but for your sakes.

nasb@John:11:31" @ Now judgment is upon this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out.

nasb@John:11:32" @And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to Myself."

nasb@John:11:36" @While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of Light." These things Jesus spoke, and He went away and hid Himself from them.

nasb@John:11:37 @But though He had performed so many signs before them, yet they were not believing in Him.

nasb@John:11:43 @for they loved the approval of men rather than the approval of God.

nasb@John:11:44 @And Jesus cried out and said, " He who believes in Me, does not believe in Me but in Him who sent Me.

nasb@John:11:45" @ He who sees Me sees the One who sent Me.

nasb@John:11:46" @ I have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness.

nasb@John:11:47" @If anyone hears My sayings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.

nasb@John:11:48" @ He who rejects Me and does not receive My sayings, has one who judges him; the word I spoke is what will judge him at the last day.

nasb@John:11:49" @ For I did not speak on My own initiative, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak.

nasb@John:11:50" @I know that His commandment is eternal life; therefore the things I speak, I speak just as the Father has told Me."

nasb@John:12:1 @Now before the Feast of the Passover, Jesus knowing that His hour had come that He would depart out of this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.

nasb@John:12:3 @Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come forth from God and was going back to God,

nasb@John:12:4 @got up from supper, and laid aside His garments; and taking a towel, He girded Himself.

nasb@John:12:6 @So He came to Simon Peter. He said to Him, "Lord, do You wash my feet?"

nasb@John:12:8 @Peter said to Him, "Never shall You wash my feet!" Jesus answered him, " If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me."

nasb@John:12:12 @So when He had washed their feet, and taken His garments and reclined at the table again, He said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you?

nasb@John:12:13" @You call Me Teacher and Lord; and you are right, for so I am.

nasb@John:12:18" @ I do not speak of all of you. I know the ones I have chosen; but it is that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ' HE WHO EATS MY BREAD HAS LIFTED UP HIS HEEL AGAINST ME.'

nasb@John:12:19" @From now on I am telling you before it comes to pass, so that when it does occur, you may believe that I am He.

nasb@John:12:20" @Truly, truly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me."

nasb@John:12:21 @When Jesus had said this, He became troubled in spirit, and testified and said, "Truly, truly, I say to you, that one of you will betray Me."

nasb@John:12:29 @For some were supposing, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus was saying to him, "Buy the things we have need of for the feast"; or else, that he should give something to the poor.

nasb@John:12:30 @So after receiving the morsel he went out immediately; and it was night.

nasb@John:12:32 @if God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself, and will glorify Him immediately.

nasb@John:12:33" @ Little children, I am with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, now I also say to you, 'Where I am going, you cannot come.'

nasb@John:12:34" @A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

nasb@John:12:35" @ By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another."

nasb@John:12:36 @Simon Peter said to Him, "Lord, where are You going?" Jesus answered, " Where I go, you cannot follow Me now; but you will follow later."

nasb@John:12:38 @Jesus answered, "Will you lay down your life for MeNULL Truly, truly, I say to you, a rooster will not crow until you deny Me three times.

nasb@John:12:14" @ Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me.

nasb@John:12:3" @If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also.

nasb@John:12:6 @Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.

nasb@John:12:7" @ If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; from now on you know Him, and have seen Him."

nasb@John:12:9 @Jesus said to him, "Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, 'Show us the Father'?

nasb@John:12:10" @Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own initiative, but the Father abiding in Me does His works.

nasb@John:12:11" @Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me; otherwise believe because of the works themselves.

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

nasb@John:12:13" @ Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

nasb@John:12:14" @If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.

nasb@John:12:15" @ If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.

nasb@John:12:18" @I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.

nasb@John:12:19" @ After a little while the world will no longer see Me, but you will see Me; because I live, you will live also.

nasb@John:12:20" @ In that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you.

nasb@John:12:21" @ He who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will disclose Myself to him."

nasb@John:12:23 @Jesus answered and said to him, " If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him.

nasb@John:12:24" @He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father's who sent Me.

nasb@John:12:26" @But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.

nasb@John:12:28" @ You heard that I said to you, 'I go away, and I will come to you.' If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced because I go to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.

nasb@John:12:30" @I will not speak much more with you, for the ruler of the world is coming, and he has nothing in Me;

nasb@John:12:31 @but so that the world may know that I love the Father, I do exactly as the Father commanded Me. Get up, let us go from here.

nasb@John:12:2" @Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bear more fruit.

nasb@John:12:4" @ Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me.

nasb@John:12:5" @I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.

nasb@John:12:6" @If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire and they are burned.

nasb@John:12:7" @If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

nasb@John:12:9" @Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love.

nasb@John:12:10" @ If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.

nasb@John:12:12" @This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you.

nasb@John:12:16" @ You did not choose Me but I chose you, and appointed you that you would go and bear fruit, and that your fruit would remain, so that whatever you ask of the Father in My name He may give to you.

nasb@John:12:18" @ If the world hates you, you know that it has hated Me before it hated you.

nasb@John:12:20" @Remember the word that I said to you, ' A slave is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you; if they kept My word, they will keep yours also.

nasb@John:12:21" @But all these things they will do to you for My name's sake, because they do not know the One who sent Me.

nasb@John:12:22" @ If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin.

nasb@John:12:23" @He who hates Me hates My Father also.

nasb@John:12:24" @ If I had not done among them the works which no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have both seen and hated Me and My Father as well.

nasb@John:12:25" @But they have done this to fulfill the word that is written in their Law, ' THEY HATED ME WITHOUT A CAUSE.'

nasb@John:12:26" @When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, that is the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify about Me,

nasb@John:12:27 @and you will testify also, because you have been with Me from the beginning.

nasb@John:12:3" @These things they will do because they have not known the Father or Me.

nasb@John:12:4" @But these things I have spoken to you, so that when their hour comes, you may remember that I told you of them. These things I did not say to you at the beginning, because I was with you.

nasb@John:12:5" @But now I am going to Him who sent Me; and none of you asks Me, ' Where are You going?'

nasb@John:12:7" @But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.

nasb@John:12:8" @And He, when He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment;

nasb@John:12:9 @concerning sin, because they do not believe in Me;

nasb@John:12:10 @and concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father and you no longer see Me;

nasb@John:12:11 @and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged.

nasb@John:12:13" @But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come.

nasb@John:12:14" @He will glorify Me, for He will take of Mine and will disclose it to you.

nasb@John:12:16" @ A little while, and you will no longer see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me."

nasb@John:12:17 @Some of His disciples then said to one another, "What is this thing He is telling us, ' A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me'; and, 'because I go to the Father'?"

nasb@John:12:19 @Jesus knew that they wished to question Him, and He said to them, "Are you deliberating together about this, that I said, 'A little while, and you will not see Me, and again a little while, and you will see Me'?

nasb@John:12:20" @Truly, truly, I say to you, that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; you will grieve, but your grief will be turned into joy.

nasb@John:12:21" @ Whenever a woman is in labor she has pain, because her hour has come; but when she gives birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish because of the joy that a child has been born into the world.

nasb@John:12:23" @ In that day you will not question Me about anything. Truly, truly, I say to you, if you ask the Father for anything in My name, He will give it to you.

nasb@John:12:24" @ Until now you have asked for nothing in My name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be made full.

nasb@John:12:26" @ In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not say to you that I will request of the Father on your behalf;

nasb@John:12:27 @for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came forth from the Father.

nasb@John:12:28" @ I came forth from the Father and have come into the world; I am leaving the world again and going to the Father."

nasb@John:12:30" @Now we know that You know all things, and have no need for anyone to question You; by this we believe that You came from God."

nasb@John:12:32" @Behold, an hour is coming, and has already come, for you to be scattered, each to his own home, and to leave Me alone; and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.

nasb@John:12:33" @These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world."

nasb@John:13:1 @Jesus spoke these things; and lifting up His eyes to heaven, He said, "Father, the hour has come; glorify Your Son, that the Son may glorify You,

nasb@John:13:4" @ I glorified You on the earth, having accomplished the work which You have given Me to do.

nasb@John:13:5" @Now, Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.

nasb@John:13:6" @ I have manifested Your name to the men whom You gave Me out of the world; they were Yours and You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.

nasb@John:13:7" @Now they have come to know that everything You have given Me is from You;

nasb@John:13:8 @for the words which You gave Me I have given to them; and they received them and truly understood that I came forth from You, and they believed that You sent Me.

nasb@John:13:9" @ I ask on their behalf; I do not ask on behalf of the world, but of those whom You have given Me; for they are Yours;

nasb@John:13:11" @I am no longer in the world; and yet they themselves are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name which You have given Me, that they may be one even as We are.

nasb@John:13:12" @While I was with them, I was keeping them in Your name which You have given Me; and I guarded them and not one of them perished but the son of perdition, so that the Scripture would be fulfilled.

nasb@John:13:13" @But now I come to You; and these things I speak in the world so that they may have My joy made full in themselves.

nasb@John:13:18" @As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world.

nasb@John:13:20" @I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in Me through their word;

nasb@John:13:21 @that they may all be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.

nasb@John:13:22" @The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one;

nasb@John:13:23 @I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me.

nasb@John:13:24" @Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.

nasb@John:13:25" @O righteous Father, although the world has not known You, yet I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me;

nasb@John:13:26 @and I have made Your name known to them, and will make it known, so that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them."

nasb@John:14:2 @Now Judas also, who was betraying Him, knew the place, for Jesus had often met there with His disciples.

nasb@John:14:3 @Judas then, having received the Roman cohort and officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

nasb@John:14:8 @Jesus answered, "I told you that I am He; so if you seek Me, let these go their way,"

nasb@John:14:9 @to fulfill the word which He spoke, " Of those whom You have given Me I lost not one."

nasb@John:14:10 @Simon Peter then, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's slave, and cut off his right ear; and the slave's name was Malchus.

nasb@John:14:11 @So Jesus said to Peter, "Put the sword into the sheath; the cup which the Father has given Me, shall I not drink it?"

nasb@John:14:20 @Jesus answered him, "I have spoken openly to the world; I always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all the Jews come together; and I spoke nothing in secret.

nasb@John:14:21" @Why do you question Me? Question those who have heard what I spoke to them; they know what I said."

nasb@John:14:23 @Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken wrongly, testify of the wrong; but if rightly, why do you strike Me?"

nasb@John:14:27 @Peter then denied it again, and immediately a rooster crowed.

nasb@John:14:34 @Jesus answered, "Are you saying this on your own initiative, or did others tell you about Me?"

nasb@John:14:35 @Pilate answered, "I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests delivered You to me; what have You done?"

nasb@John:14:37 @Therefore Pilate said to Him, "So You are a king?" Jesus answered, " You say correctly that I am a king. For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice."

nasb@John:14:39" @ But you have a custom that I release someone for you at the Passover; do you wish then that I release for you the King of the Jews?"

nasb@John:15:3 @and they began to come up to Him and say, " Hail, King of the Jews!" and to give Him slaps in the face.

nasb@John:15:4 @Pilate came out again and said to them, "Behold, I am bringing Him out to you so that you may know that I find no guilt in Him."

nasb@John:15:5 @Jesus then came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate said to them, "Behold, the Man!"

nasb@John:15:8 @Therefore when Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid;

nasb@John:15:10 @So Pilate said to Him, "You do not speak to me? Do You not know that I have authority to release You, and I have authority to crucify You?"

nasb@John:15:11 @Jesus answered, " You would have no authority over Me, unless it had been given you from above; for this reason he who delivered Me to you has the greater sin."

nasb@John:15:13 @Therefore when Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha.

nasb@John:15:18 @There they crucified Him, and with Him two other men, one on either side, and Jesus in between.

nasb@John:15:23 @Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His outer garments and made four parts, a part to every soldier and also the tunic; now the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece.

nasb@John:15:24 @So they said to one another, " Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, to decide whose it shall be"; this was to fulfill the Scripture- "THEY DIVIDED MY OUTER GARMENTS AMONG THEM, AND FOR MY CLOTHING THEY CAST LOTS."

nasb@John:15:32 @So the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first man and of the other who was crucified with Him;

nasb@John:15:34 @But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.

nasb@John:15:36 @For these things came to pass to fulfill the Scripture, " NOT A BONE OF HIM SHALL BE BROKEN."

nasb@John:15:38 @After these things Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus, but a secret one for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus; and Pilate granted permission. So he came and took away His body.

nasb@John:15:39 @Nicodemus, who had first come to Him by night, also came, bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds weight.

nasb@John:16:1 @Now on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came early to the tomb, while it was still dark, and saw the stone already taken away from the tomb.

nasb@John:16:2 @So she ran and came to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them, " They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid Him."

nasb@John:16:4 @The two were running together; and the other disciple ran ahead faster than Peter and came to the tomb first;

nasb@John:16:6 @And so Simon Peter also came, following him, and entered the tomb; and he saw the linen wrappings lying there,

nasb@John:16:8 @So the other disciple who had first come to the tomb then also entered, and he saw and believed.

nasb@John:16:10 @So the disciples went away again to their own homes.

nasb@John:16:15 @Jesus said to her, " Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?" Supposing Him to be the gardener, she said to Him, "Sir, if you have carried Him away, tell me where you have laid Him, and I will take Him away."

nasb@John:16:16 @Jesus said to her, "Mary!" She turned and said to Him in Hebrew, " Rabboni!" (which means, Teacher).

nasb@John:16:17 @Jesus said to her, "Stop clinging to Me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, 'I ascend to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God.'"

nasb@John:16:18 @Mary Magdalene came, announcing to the disciples, "I have seen the Lord," and that He had said these things to her.

nasb@John:16:19 @So when it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and when the doors were shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst and said to them, " Peace be with you."

nasb@John:16:21 @So Jesus said to them again, " Peace be with you; as the Father has sent Me, I also send you."

nasb@John:16:24 @But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

nasb@John:16:26 @After eight days His disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors having been shut, and stood in their midst and said, " Peace be with you."

nasb@John:16:29 @Jesus said to him, "Because you have seen Me, have you believed? Blessed are they who did not see, and yet believed."

nasb@John:16:30 @Therefore many other signs Jesus also performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book;

nasb@John:16:31 @but these have been written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you may have life in His name.

nasb@John:17:3 @Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We will also come with you." They went out and got into the boat; and that night they caught nothing.

nasb@John:17:7 @Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord." So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put his outer garment on (for he was stripped for work), and threw himself into the sea.

nasb@John:17:8 @But the other disciples came in the little boat, for they were not far from the land, but about one hundred yards away, dragging the net full of fish.

nasb@John:17:10 @Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish which you have now caught."

nasb@John:17:12 @Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast." None of the disciples ventured to question Him, "Who are You?" knowing that it was the Lord.

nasb@John:17:13 @Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and the fish likewise.

nasb@John:17:14 @This is now the third time that Jesus was manifested to the disciples, after He was raised from the dead.

nasb@John:17:15 @So when they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, do you love Me more than these?" He said to Him, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You." He said to him, "Tend My lambs."

nasb@John:17:16 @He said to him again a second time, "Simon, son of John, do you love Me?" He said to Him, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You." He said to him, " Shepherd My sheep."

nasb@John:17:17 @He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of John, do you love Me?" Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, "Do you love Me?" And he said to Him, "Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You." Jesus said to him, " Tend My sheep.

nasb@John:17:18" @Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were younger, you used to gird yourself and walk wherever you wished; but when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands and someone else will gird you, and bring you where you do not wish to go."

nasb@John:17:19 @Now this He said, signifying by what kind of death he would glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He said to him, " Follow Me!"

nasb@John:17:22 @Jesus said to him, "If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow Me!"

nasb@John:17:23 @Therefore this saying went out among the brethren that that disciple would not die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but only, "If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you?"

nasb@Acts:1:4 @Gathering them together, He commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised, "Which," He said, "you heard of from Me;

nasb@Acts:1:6 @So when they had come together, they were asking Him, saying, "Lord, is it at this time You are restoring the kingdom to Israel?"

nasb@Acts:1:7 @He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or epochs which the Father has fixed by His own authority;

nasb@Acts:1:8 @but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth."

nasb@Acts:1:10 @And as they were gazing intently into the sky while He was going, behold, two men in white clothing stood beside them.

nasb@Acts:1:11 @They also said, " Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven."

nasb@Acts:1:13 @When they had entered the city, they went up to the upper room where they were staying; that is, Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zealot, and Judas the son of James.

nasb@Acts:1:14 @These all with one mind were continually devoting themselves to prayer, along with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.

nasb@Acts:1:15 @At this time Peter stood up in the midst of the brethren (a gathering of about one hundred and twenty persons was there together), and said,

nasb@Acts:1:16" @Brethren, the Scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit foretold by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide to those who arrested Jesus.

nasb@Acts:1:19 @And it became known to all who were living in Jerusalem; so that in their own language that field was called Hakeldama, that is, Field of Blood.)

nasb@Acts:1:20" @For it is written in the book of Psalms, ' LET HIS HOMESTEAD BE MADE DESOLATE, AND LET NO ONE DWELL IN IT'; and, ' LET ANOTHER MAN TAKE HIS OFFICE.'

nasb@Acts:1:21" @Therefore it is necessary that of the men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us--

nasb@Acts:1:22 @beginning with the baptism of John until the day that He was taken up from us--one of these must become a witness with us of His resurrection."

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

nasb@Acts:1:24 @And they prayed and said, "You, Lord, who know the hearts of all men, show which one of these two You have chosen

nasb@Acts:2:1 @When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place.

nasb@Acts:2:2 @And suddenly there came from heaven a noise like a violent rushing wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.

nasb@Acts:2:5 @Now there were Jews living in Jerusalem, devout men from every nation under heaven.

nasb@Acts:2:6 @And when this sound occurred, the crowd came together, and were bewildered because each one of them was hearing them speak in his own language.

nasb@Acts:2:9" @Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia,

nasb@Acts:2:10 @Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the districts of Libya around Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,

nasb@Acts:2:12 @And they all continued in amazement and great perplexity, saying to one another, "What does this mean?"

nasb@Acts:2:14 @But Peter, taking his stand with the eleven, raised his voice and declared to them- "Men of Judea and all you who live in Jerusalem, let this be known to you and give heed to my words.

nasb@Acts:2:15" @For these men are not drunk, as you suppose, for it is only the third hour of the day;

nasb@Acts:2:17 @' AND IT SHALL BE IN THE LAST DAYS,' God says, 'THAT I WILL POUR FORTH OF MY SPIRIT ON ALL MANKIND; AND YOUR SONS AND YOUR DAUGHTERS SHALL PROPHESY, AND YOUR YOUNG MEN SHALL SEE VISIONS, AND YOUR OLD MEN SHALL DREAM DREAMS;

nasb@Acts:2:21 @'AND IT SHALL BE THAT EVERYONE WHO CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED.'

nasb@Acts:2:22" @Men of Israel, listen to these words- Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested to you by God with miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through Him in your midst, just as you yourselves know--

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

nasb@Acts:2:28 @'YOU HAVE MADE KNOWN TO ME THE WAYS OF LIFE; YOU WILL MAKE ME FULL OF GLADNESS WITH YOUR PRESENCE.'

nasb@Acts:2:38 @Peter said to them, " Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

nasb@Acts:2:46 @Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were taking their meals together with gladness and sincerity of heart,

nasb@Acts:3:2 @And a man who had been lame from his mother's womb was being carried along, whom they used to set down every day at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, in order to beg alms of those who were entering the temple.

nasb@Acts:3:5 @And he began to give them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.

nasb@Acts:3:6 @But Peter said, "I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you- In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene--walk!"

nasb@Acts:3:7 @And seizing him by the right hand, he raised him up; and immediately his feet and his ankles were strengthened.

nasb@Acts:3:10 @and they were taking note of him as being the one who used to sit at the Beautiful Gate of the temple to beg alms, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

nasb@Acts:3:11 @While he was clinging to Peter and John, all the people ran together to them at the so-called portico of Solomon, full of amazement.

nasb@Acts:3:12 @But when Peter saw this, he replied to the people, "Men of Israel, why are you amazed at this, or why do you gaze at us, as if by our own power or piety we had made him walk?

nasb@Acts:3:16" @And on the basis of faith in His name, it is the name of Jesus which has strengthened this man whom you see and know; and the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect health in the presence of you all.

nasb@Acts:3:19" @Therefore repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord;

nasb@Acts:3:21 @whom heaven must receive until the period of restoration of all things about which God spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets from ancient time.

nasb@Acts:3:22" @Moses said, ' THE LORD GOD WILL RAISE UP FOR YOU A PROPHET LIKE ME FROM YOUR BRETHREN; TO HIM YOU SHALL GIVE HEED to everything He says to you.

nasb@Acts:4:1 @As they were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple guard and the Sadducees came up to them,

nasb@Acts:4:4 @But many of those who had heard the message believed; and the number of the men came to be about five thousand.

nasb@Acts:4:7 @When they had placed them in the center, they began to inquire, "By what power, or in what name, have you done this?"

nasb@Acts:4:10 @let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead--by this name this man stands here before you in good health.

nasb@Acts:4:11" @ He is the STONE WHICH WAS REJECTED by you, THE BUILDERS, but WHICH BECAME THE CHIEF CORNER stone.

nasb@Acts:4:12" @And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved."

nasb@Acts:4:13 @Now as they observed the confidence of Peter and John and understood that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed, and began to recognize them as having been with Jesus.

nasb@Acts:4:16 @saying, " What shall we do with these men? For the fact that a noteworthy miracle has taken place through them is apparent to all who live in Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.

nasb@Acts:4:17" @But so that it will not spread any further among the people, let us warn them to speak no longer to any man in this name."

nasb@Acts:4:18 @And when they had summoned them, they commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus.

nasb@Acts:4:22 @for the man was more than forty years old on whom this miracle of healing had been performed.

nasb@Acts:4:30 @while You extend Your hand to heal, and signs and wonders take place through the name of Your holy servant Jesus."

nasb@Acts:4:32 @And the congregation of those who believed were of one heart and soul; and not one of them claimed that anything belonging to him was his own, but all things were common property to them.

nasb@Acts:4:36 @Now Joseph, a Levite of Cyprian birth, who was also called Barnabas by the apostles (which translated means Son of Encouragement),

nasb@Acts:5:1 @But a man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property,

nasb@Acts:5:2 @and kept back some of the price for himself, with his wife's full knowledge, and bringing a portion of it, he laid it at the apostles' feet.

nasb@Acts:5:3 @But Peter said, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back some of the price of the land?

nasb@Acts:5:4" @While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not under your control? Why is it that you have conceived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to men but to God."

nasb@Acts:5:5 @And as he heard these words, Ananias fell down and breathed his last; and great fear came over all who heard of it.

nasb@Acts:5:6 @The young men got up and covered him up, and after carrying him out, they buried him.

nasb@Acts:5:7 @Now there elapsed an interval of about three hours, and his wife came in, not knowing what had happened.

nasb@Acts:5:8 @And Peter responded to her, "Tell me whether you sold the land for such and such a price?" And she said, "Yes, that was the price."

nasb@Acts:5:10 @And immediately she fell at his feet and breathed her last, and the young men came in and found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband.

nasb@Acts:5:11 @And great fear came over the whole church, and over all who heard of these things.

nasb@Acts:5:14 @And all the more believers in the Lord, multitudes of men and women, were constantly added to their number,

nasb@Acts:5:15 @to such an extent that they even carried the sick out into the streets and laid them on cots and pallets, so that when Peter came by at least his shadow might fall on any one of them.

nasb@Acts:5:20" @Go, stand and speak to the people in the temple the whole message of this Life."

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

nasb@Acts:5:22 @But the officers who came did not find them in the prison; and they returned and reported back,

nasb@Acts:5:24 @Now when the captain of the temple guard and the chief priests heard these words, they were greatly perplexed about them as to what would come of this.

nasb@Acts:5:25 @But someone came and reported to them, "The men whom you put in prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people!"

nasb@Acts:5:28 @saying, "We gave you strict orders not to continue teaching in this name, and yet, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and intend to bring this man's blood upon us."

nasb@Acts:5:29 @But Peter and the apostles answered, " We must obey God rather than men.

nasb@Acts:5:34 @But a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the Law, respected by all the people, stood up in the Council and gave orders to put the men outside for a short time.

nasb@Acts:5:35 @And he said to them, "Men of Israel, take care what you propose to do with these men.

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

nasb@Acts:5:37" @After this man, Judas of Galilee rose up in the days of the census and drew away some people after him; he too perished, and all those who followed him were scattered.

nasb@Acts:5:38" @So in the present case, I say to you, stay away from these men and let them alone, for if this plan or action is of men, it will be overthrown;

nasb@Acts:5:40 @They took his advice; and after calling the apostles in, they flogged them and ordered them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and then released them.

nasb@Acts:5:41 @So they went on their way from the presence of the Council, rejoicing that they had been considered worthy to suffer shame for His name.

nasb@Acts:6:1 @Now at this time while the disciples were increasing in number, a complaint arose on the part of the Hellenistic Jews against the native Hebrews, because their widows were being overlooked in the daily serving of food.

nasb@Acts:6:3" @Therefore, brethren, select from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may put in charge of this task.

nasb@Acts:6:5 @The statement found approval with the whole congregation; and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas and Nicolas, a proselyte from Antioch.

nasb@Acts:6:9 @But some men from what was called the Synagogue of the Freedmen, including both Cyrenians and Alexandrians, and some from Cilicia and Asia, rose up and argued with Stephen.

nasb@Acts:6:11 @Then they secretly induced men to say, "We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and against God."

nasb@Acts:6:12 @And they stirred up the people, the elders and the scribes, and they came up to him and dragged him away and brought him before the Council.

nasb@Acts:7:2 @And he said, "Hear me, brethren and fathers! The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,

nasb@Acts:8:1 @Saul was in hearty agreement with putting him to death. And on that day a great persecution began against the church in Jerusalem, and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.

nasb@Acts:8:3 @But Saul began ravaging the church, entering house after house, and dragging off men and women, he would put them in prison.

nasb@Acts:8:7 @For in the case of many who had unclean spirits, they were coming out of them shouting with a loud voice; and many who had been paralyzed and lame were healed.

nasb@Acts:8:9 @Now there was a man named Simon, who formerly was practicing magic in the city and astonishing the people of Samaria, claiming to be someone great;

nasb@Acts:8:11 @And they were giving him attention because he had for a long time astonished them with his magic arts.

nasb@Acts:8:12 @But when they believed Philip preaching the good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were being baptized, men and women alike.

nasb@Acts:8:15 @who came down and prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit.

nasb@Acts:8:16 @For He had not yet fallen upon any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

nasb@Acts:8:24 @But Simon answered and said, " Pray to the Lord for me yourselves, so that nothing of what you have said may come upon me."

nasb@Acts:8:27 @So he got up and went; and there was an Ethiopian eunuch, a court official of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of all her treasure; and he had come to Jerusalem to worship,

nasb@Acts:8:36 @As they went along the road they came to some water; and the eunuch said, "Look! Water! What prevents me from being baptized?"

nasb@Acts:8:39 @When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord snatched Philip away; and the eunuch no longer saw him, but went on his way rejoicing.

nasb@Acts:8:40 @But Philip found himself at Azotus, and as he passed through he kept preaching the gospel to all the cities until he came to Caesarea.

nasb@Acts:9:2 @and asked for letters from him to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, both men and women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.

nasb@Acts:9:4 @and he fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?"

nasb@Acts:9:7 @The men who traveled with him stood speechless, hearing the voice but seeing no one.

nasb@Acts:9:10 @Now there was a disciple at Damascus named Ananias; and the Lord said to him in a vision, "Ananias." And he said, "Here I am, Lord."

nasb@Acts:9:11 @And the Lord said to him, "Get up and go to the street called Straight, and inquire at the house of Judas for a man from Tarsus named Saul, for he is praying,

nasb@Acts:9:12 @and he has seen in a vision a man named Ananias come in and lay his hands on him, so that he might regain his sight."

nasb@Acts:9:14 @and here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on Your name."

nasb@Acts:9:15 @But the Lord said to him, "Go, for he is a chosen instrument of Mine, to bear My name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel;

nasb@Acts:9:16 @for I will show him how much he must suffer for My name's sake."

nasb@Acts:9:17 @So Ananias departed and entered the house, and after laying his hands on him said, " Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road by which you were coming, has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit."

nasb@Acts:9:18 @And immediately there fell from his eyes something like scales, and he regained his sight, and he got up and was baptized;

nasb@Acts:9:20 @and immediately he began to proclaim Jesus in the synagogues, saying, "He is the Son of God."

nasb@Acts:9:21 @All those hearing him continued to be amazed, and were saying, "Is this not he who in Jerusalem destroyed those who called on this name, and who had come here for the purpose of bringing them bound before the chief priests?"

nasb@Acts:9:24 @but their plot became known to Saul. They were also watching the gates day and night so that they might put him to death;

nasb@Acts:9:26 @When he came to Jerusalem, he was trying to associate with the disciples; but they were all afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.

nasb@Acts:9:27 @But Barnabas took hold of him and brought him to the apostles and described to them how he had seen the Lord on the road, and that He had talked to him, and how at Damascus he had spoken out boldly in the name of Jesus.

nasb@Acts:9:28 @And he was with them, moving about freely in Jerusalem, speaking out boldly in the name of the Lord.

nasb@Acts:9:32 @Now as Peter was traveling through all those regions, he came down also to the saints who lived at Lydda.

nasb@Acts:9:33 @There he found a man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden eight years, for he was paralyzed.

nasb@Acts:9:34 @Peter said to him, "Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you; get up and make your bed." Immediately he got up.

nasb@Acts:9:36 @Now in Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (which translated in Greek is called Dorcas); this woman was abounding with deeds of kindness and charity which she continually did.

nasb@Acts:9:37 @And it happened at that time that she fell sick and died; and when they had washed her body, they laid it in an upper room.

nasb@Acts:9:38 @Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, having heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him, imploring him, "Do not delay in coming to us."

nasb@Acts:9:39 @So Peter arose and went with them. When he arrived, they brought him into the upper room; and all the widows stood beside him, weeping and showing all the tunics and garments that Dorcas used to make while she was with them.

nasb@Acts:9:42 @It became known all over Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.

nasb@Acts:9:43 @And Peter stayed many days in Joppa with a tanner named Simon.

nasb@Acts:10:1 @Now there was a man at Caesarea named Cornelius, a centurion of what was called the Italian cohort,

nasb@Acts:10:3 @About the ninth hour of the day he clearly saw in a vision an angel of God who had just come in and said to him, "Cornelius!"

nasb@Acts:10:4 @And fixing his gaze on him and being much alarmed, he said, "What is it, Lord?" And he said to him, "Your prayers and alms have ascended as a memorial before God.

nasb@Acts:10:5" @Now dispatch some men to Joppa and send for a man named Simon, who is also called Peter;

nasb@Acts:10:6 @he is staying with a tanner named Simon, whose house is by the sea."

nasb@Acts:10:10 @But he became hungry and was desiring to eat; but while they were making preparations, he fell into a trance;

nasb@Acts:10:13 @A voice came to him, "Get up, Peter, kill and eat!"

nasb@Acts:10:14 @But Peter said, "By no means, Lord, for I have never eaten anything unholy and unclean."

nasb@Acts:10:15 @Again a voice came to him a second time, " What God has cleansed, no longer consider unholy."

nasb@Acts:10:16 @This happened three times, and immediately the object was taken up into the sky.

nasb@Acts:10:17 @Now while Peter was greatly perplexed in mind as to what the vision which he had seen might be, behold, the men who had been sent by Cornelius, having asked directions for Simon's house, appeared at the gate;

nasb@Acts:10:19 @While Peter was reflecting on the vision, the Spirit said to him, "Behold, three men are looking for you.

nasb@Acts:10:21 @Peter went down to the men and said, "Behold, I am the one you are looking for; what is the reason for which you have come?"

nasb@Acts:10:22 @They said, "Cornelius, a centurion, a righteous and God-fearing man well spoken of by the entire nation of the Jews, was divinely directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and hear a message from you."

nasb@Acts:10:23 @So he invited them in and gave them lodging. And on the next day he got up and went away with them, and some of the brethren from Joppa accompanied him.

nasb@Acts:10:25 @When Peter entered, Cornelius met him, and fell at his feet and worshiped him.

nasb@Acts:10:28 @And he said to them, "You yourselves know how unlawful it is for a man who is a Jew to associate with a foreigner or to visit him; and yet God has shown me that I should not call any man unholy or unclean.

nasb@Acts:10:29" @That is why I came without even raising any objection when I was sent for. So I ask for what reason you have sent for me."

nasb@Acts:10:30 @Cornelius said, " Four days ago to this hour, I was praying in my house during the ninth hour; and behold, a man stood before me in shining garments,

nasb@Acts:10:31 @and he said, 'Cornelius, your prayer has been heard and your alms have been remembered before God.

nasb@Acts:10:32 @'Therefore send to Joppa and invite Simon, who is also called Peter, to come to you; he is staying at the house of Simon the tanner by the sea.'

nasb@Acts:10:33" @So I sent for you immediately, and you have been kind enough to come. Now then, we are all here present before God to hear all that you have been commanded by the Lord."

nasb@Acts:10:35 @but in every nation the man who fears Him and does what is right is welcome to Him.

nasb@Acts:10:37 @you yourselves know the thing which took place throughout all Judea, starting from Galilee, after the baptism which John proclaimed.

nasb@Acts:10:40" @ God raised Him up on the third day and granted that He become visible,

nasb@Acts:10:43" @Of Him all the prophets bear witness that through His name everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins."

nasb@Acts:10:44 @While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who were listening to the message.

nasb@Acts:10:45 @All the circumcised believers who came with Peter were amazed, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also.

nasb@Acts:10:48 @And he ordered them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay on for a few days.

nasb@Acts:11:2 @And when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those who were circumcised took issue with him,

nasb@Acts:11:3 @saying, " You went to uncircumcised men and ate with them."

nasb@Acts:11:5" @ I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object coming down like a great sheet lowered by four corners from the sky; and it came right down to me,

nasb@Acts:11:7" @I also heard a voice saying to me, 'Get up, Peter; kill and eat.'

nasb@Acts:11:8" @But I said, 'By no means, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered my mouth.'

nasb@Acts:11:9" @But a voice from heaven answered a second time, ' What God has cleansed, no longer consider unholy.'

nasb@Acts:11:10" @This happened three times, and everything was drawn back up into the sky.

nasb@Acts:11:11" @And behold, at that moment three men appeared at the house in which we were staying, having been sent to me from Caesarea.

nasb@Acts:11:12" @ The Spirit told me to go with them without misgivings. These six brethren also went with me and we entered the man's house.

nasb@Acts:11:16" @And I remembered the word of the Lord, how He used to say, ' John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'

nasb@Acts:11:17" @Therefore if God gave to them the same gift as He gave to us also after believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could stand in God's way?"

nasb@Acts:11:20 @But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who came to Antioch and began speaking to the Greeks also, preaching the Lord Jesus.

nasb@Acts:11:26 @and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. And for an entire year they met with the church and taught considerable numbers; and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.

nasb@Acts:11:27 @Now at this time some prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.

nasb@Acts:11:28 @One of them named Agabus stood up and began to indicate by the Spirit that there would certainly be a great famine all over the world. And this took place in the reign of Claudius.

nasb@Acts:11:29 @And in the proportion that any of the disciples had means, each of them determined to send a contribution for the relief of the brethren living in Judea.

nasb@Acts:12:1 @Now about that time Herod the king laid hands on some who belonged to the church in order to mistreat them.

nasb@Acts:12:2 @And he had James the brother of John put to death with a sword.

nasb@Acts:12:8 @And the angel said to him, "Gird yourself and put on your sandals." And he did so. And he said to him, "Wrap your cloak around you and follow me."

nasb@Acts:12:10 @When they had passed the first and second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads into the city, which opened for them by itself; and they went out and went along one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.

nasb@Acts:12:11 @When Peter came to himself, he said, "Now I know for sure that the Lord has sent forth His angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting."

nasb@Acts:12:13 @When he knocked at the door of the gate, a servant-girl named Rhoda came to answer.

nasb@Acts:12:17 @But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had led him out of the prison. And he said, "Report these things to James and the brethren." Then he left and went to another place.

nasb@Acts:12:18 @Now when day came, there was no small disturbance among the soldiers as to what could have become of Peter.

nasb@Acts:12:19 @When Herod had searched for him and had not found him, he examined the guards and ordered that they be led away to execution. Then he went down from Judea to Caesarea and was spending time there.

nasb@Acts:12:20 @Now he was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; and with one accord they came to him, and having won over Blastus the king's chamberlain, they were asking for peace, because their country was fed by the king's country.

nasb@Acts:12:23 @And immediately an angel of the Lord struck him because he did not give God the glory, and he was eaten by worms and died.

nasb@Acts:13:1 @Now there were at Antioch, in the church that was there, prophets and teachers- Barnabas, and Simeon who was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

nasb@Acts:13:2 @While they were ministering to the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them."

nasb@Acts:13:6 @When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they found a magician, a Jewish false prophet whose name was Bar-Jesus,

nasb@Acts:13:8 @But Elymas the magician (for so his name is translated) was opposing them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.

nasb@Acts:13:11" @Now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will be blind and not see the sun for a time." And immediately a mist and a darkness fell upon him, and he went about seeking those who would lead him by the hand.

nasb@Acts:13:13 @Now Paul and his companions put out to sea from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia; but John left them and returned to Jerusalem.

nasb@Acts:13:16 @Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said, "Men of Israel, and you who fear God, listen-

nasb@Acts:13:24 @after John had proclaimed before His coming a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

nasb@Acts:13:25" @And while John was completing his course, he kept saying, 'What do you suppose that I am? I am not He. But behold, one is coming after me the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.'

nasb@Acts:13:26" @Brethren, sons of Abraham's family, and those among you who fear God, to us the message of this salvation has been sent.

nasb@Acts:13:31 @and for many days He appeared to those who came up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, the very ones who are now His witnesses to the people.

nasb@Acts:13:38" @Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through Him forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you,

nasb@Acts:13:40" @Therefore take heed, so that the thing spoken of in the Prophets may not come upon you-

nasb@Acts:13:41 @' BEHOLD, YOU SCOFFERS, AND MARVEL, AND PERISH; FOR I AM ACCOMPLISHING A WORK IN YOUR DAYS, A WORK WHICH YOU WILL NEVER BELIEVE, THOUGH SOMEONE SHOULD DESCRIBE IT TO YOU.'"

nasb@Acts:13:43 @Now when the meeting of the synagogue had broken up, many of the Jews and of the God-fearing proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking to them, were urging them to continue in the grace of God.

nasb@Acts:13:50 @But the Jews incited the devout women of prominence and the leading men of the city, and instigated a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their district.

nasb@Acts:14:3 @Therefore they spent a long time there speaking boldly with reliance upon the Lord, who was testifying to the word of His grace, granting that signs and wonders be done by their hands.

nasb@Acts:14:4 @But the people of the city were divided; and some sided with the Jews, and some with the apostles.

nasb@Acts:14:6 @they became aware of it and fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the surrounding region;

nasb@Acts:14:8 @At Lystra a man was sitting who had no strength in his feet, lame from his mother's womb, who had never walked.

nasb@Acts:14:11 @When the crowds saw what Paul had done, they raised their voice, saying in the Lycaonian language, " The gods have become like men and have come down to us."

nasb@Acts:14:12 @And they began calling Barnabas, Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.

nasb@Acts:14:15 @and saying, "Men, why are you doing these things? We are also men of the same nature as you, and preach the gospel to you that you should turn from these vain things to a living God, WHO MADE THE HEAVEN AND THE EARTH AND THE SEA AND ALL THAT IS IN THEM.

nasb@Acts:14:19 @But Jews came from Antioch and Iconium, and having won over the crowds, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.

nasb@Acts:14:23 @When they had appointed elders for them in every church, having prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord in whom they had believed.

nasb@Acts:14:24 @They passed through Pisidia and came into Pamphylia.

nasb@Acts:14:26 @From there they sailed to Antioch, from which they had been commended to the grace of God for the work that they had accomplished.

nasb@Acts:14:28 @And they spent a long time with the disciples.

nasb@Acts:15:1 @Some men came down from Judea and began teaching the brethren, "Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved."

nasb@Acts:15:2 @And when Paul and Barnabas had great dissension and debate with them, the brethren determined that Paul and Barnabas and some others of them should go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders concerning this issue.

nasb@Acts:15:5 @But some of the sect of the Pharisees who had believed stood up, saying, "It is necessary to circumcise them and to direct them to observe the Law of Moses."

nasb@Acts:15:6 @The apostles and the elders came together to look into this matter.

nasb@Acts:15:11" @But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same way as they also are."

nasb@Acts:15:13 @After they had stopped speaking, James answered, saying, "Brethren, listen to me.

nasb@Acts:15:14" @ Simeon has related how God first concerned Himself about taking from among the Gentiles a people for His name.

nasb@Acts:15:17 @SO THAT THE REST OF MANKIND MAY SEEK THE LORD, AND ALL THE GENTILES WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME,'

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

nasb@Acts:15:22 @Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole church, to choose men from among them to send to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas--Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, leading men among the brethren,

nasb@Acts:15:24" @Since we have heard that some of our number to whom we gave no instruction have disturbed you with their words, unsettling your souls,

nasb@Acts:15:25 @it seemed good to us, having become of one mind, to select men to send to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

nasb@Acts:15:26 @men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nasb@Acts:15:27" @Therefore we have sent Judas and Silas, who themselves will also report the same things by word of mouth.

nasb@Acts:15:28" @For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay upon you no greater burden than these essentials-

nasb@Acts:15:31 @When they had read it, they rejoiced because of its encouragement.

nasb@Acts:15:32 @Judas and Silas, also being prophets themselves, encouraged and strengthened the brethren with a lengthy message.

nasb@Acts:15:33 @After they had spent time there, they were sent away from the brethren in peace to those who had sent them out.

nasb@Acts:15:34 @[ But it seemed good to Silas to remain there.]

nasb@Acts:15:36 @After some days Paul said to Barnabas, "Let us return and visit the brethren in every city in which we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are."

nasb@Acts:15:39 @And there occurred such a sharp disagreement that they separated from one another, and Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus.

nasb@Acts:16:1 @Paul came also to Derbe and to Lystra. And a disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer, but his father was a Greek,

nasb@Acts:16:7 @and after they came to Mysia, they were trying to go into Bithynia, and the Spirit of Jesus did not permit them;

nasb@Acts:16:8 @and passing by Mysia, they came down to Troas.

nasb@Acts:16:9 @A vision appeared to Paul in the night- a man of Macedonia was standing and appealing to him, and saying, "Come over to Macedonia and help us."

nasb@Acts:16:10 @When he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.

nasb@Acts:16:12 @and from there to Philippi, which is a leading city of the district of Macedonia, a Roman colony; and we were staying in this city for some days.

nasb@Acts:16:13 @And on the Sabbath day we went outside the gate to a riverside, where we were supposing that there would be a place of prayer; and we sat down and began speaking to the women who had assembled.

nasb@Acts:16:14 @A woman named Lydia, from the city of Thyatira, a seller of purple fabrics, a worshiper of God, was listening; and the Lord opened her heart to respond to the things spoken by Paul.

nasb@Acts:16:15 @And when she and her household had been baptized, she urged us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and stay." And she prevailed upon us.

nasb@Acts:16:16 @It happened that as we were going to the place of prayer, a slave-girl having a spirit of divination met us, who was bringing her masters much profit by fortune-telling.

nasb@Acts:16:17 @Following after Paul and us, she kept crying out, saying, "These men are bond-servants of the Most High God, who are proclaiming to you the way of salvation."

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

nasb@Acts:16:20 @and when they had brought them to the chief magistrates, they said, "These men are throwing our city into confusion, being Jews,

nasb@Acts:16:26 @and suddenly there came a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison house were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone's chains were unfastened.

nasb@Acts:16:33 @And he took them that very hour of the night and washed their wounds, and immediately he was baptized, he and all his household.

nasb@Acts:16:35 @Now when day came, the chief magistrates sent their policemen, saying, "Release those men."

nasb@Acts:16:36 @And the jailer reported these words to Paul, saying, "The chief magistrates have sent to release you. Therefore come out now and go in peace."

nasb@Acts:16:37 @But Paul said to them, "They have beaten us in public without trial, men who are Romans, and have thrown us into prison; and now are they sending us away secretly? No indeed! But let them come themselves and bring us out."

nasb@Acts:16:38 @The policemen reported these words to the chief magistrates. They were afraid when they heard that they were Romans,

nasb@Acts:16:39 @and they came and appealed to them, and when they had brought them out, they kept begging them to leave the city.

nasb@Acts:17:1 @Now when they had traveled through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.

nasb@Acts:17:4 @And some of them were persuaded and joined Paul and Silas, along with a large number of the God-fearing Greeks and a number of the leading women.

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

nasb@Acts:17:6 @When they did not find them, they began dragging Jason and some brethren before the city authorities, shouting, "These men who have upset the world have come here also;

nasb@Acts:17:7 @and Jason has welcomed them, and they all act contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus."

nasb@Acts:17:10 @The brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea, and when they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews.

nasb@Acts:17:12 @Therefore many of them believed, along with a number of prominent Greek women and men.

nasb@Acts:17:13 @But when the Jews of Thessalonica found out that the word of God had been proclaimed by Paul in Berea also, they came there as well, agitating and stirring up the crowds.

nasb@Acts:17:14 @Then immediately the brethren sent Paul out to go as far as the sea; and Silas and Timothy remained there.

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

nasb@Acts:17:18 @And also some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers were conversing with him. Some were saying, "What would this idle babbler wish to say?" Others, "He seems to be a proclaimer of strange deities,"--because he was preaching Jesus and the resurrection.

nasb@Acts:17:20" @For you are bringing some strange things to our ears; so we want to know what these things mean."

nasb@Acts:17:21 @(Now all the Athenians and the strangers visiting there used to spend their time in nothing other than telling or hearing something new.)

nasb@Acts:17:22 @So Paul stood in the midst of the Areopagus and said, "Men of Athens, I observe that you are very religious in all respects.

nasb@Acts:17:26 @and He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation,

nasb@Acts:17:28 @for in Him we live and move and exist, as even some of your own poets have said, 'For we also are His children.'

nasb@Acts:17:29" @Being then the children of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and thought of man.

nasb@Acts:17:30" @Therefore having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is now declaring to men that all people everywhere should repent,

nasb@Acts:17:31 @because He has fixed a day in which He will judge the world in righteousness through a Man whom He has appointed, having furnished proof to all men by raising Him from the dead."

nasb@Acts:17:32 @Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some began to sneer, but others said, "We shall hear you again concerning this."

nasb@Acts:17:34 @But some men joined him and believed, among whom also were Dionysius the Areopagite and a woman named Damaris and others with them.

nasb@Acts:18:2 @And he found a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, having recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome. He came to them,

nasb@Acts:18:3 @and because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and they were working, for by trade they were tent-makers.

nasb@Acts:18:5 @But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul began devoting himself completely to the word, solemnly testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.

nasb@Acts:18:6 @But when they resisted and blasphemed, he shook out his garments and said to them, "Your blood be on your own heads! I am clean. From now on I will go to the Gentiles."

nasb@Acts:18:7 @Then he left there and went to the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God, whose house was next to the synagogue.

nasb@Acts:18:12 @But while Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat,

nasb@Acts:18:13 @saying, "This man persuades men to worship God contrary to the law."

nasb@Acts:18:14 @But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it were a matter of wrong or of vicious crime, O Jews, it would be reasonable for me to put up with you;

nasb@Acts:18:15 @but if there are questions about words and names and your own law, look after it yourselves; I am unwilling to be a judge of these matters."

nasb@Acts:18:16 @And he drove them away from the judgment seat.

nasb@Acts:18:17 @And they all took hold of Sosthenes, the leader of the synagogue, and began beating him in front of the judgment seat. But Gallio was not concerned about any of these things.

nasb@Acts:18:19 @They came to Ephesus, and he left them there. Now he himself entered the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.

nasb@Acts:18:20 @When they asked him to stay for a longer time, he did not consent,

nasb@Acts:18:23 @And having spent some time there, he left and passed successively through the Galatian region and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.

nasb@Acts:18:24 @Now a Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by birth, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus; and he was mighty in the Scriptures.

nasb@Acts:18:27 @And when he wanted to go across to Achaia, the brethren encouraged him and wrote to the disciples to welcome him; and when he had arrived, he greatly helped those who had believed through grace,

nasb@Acts:19:1 @It happened that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the upper country and came to Ephesus, and found some disciples.

nasb@Acts:19:5 @When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

nasb@Acts:19:6 @And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they began speaking with tongues and prophesying.

nasb@Acts:19:7 @There were in all about twelve men.

nasb@Acts:19:9 @But when some were becoming hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the people, he withdrew from them and took away the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.

nasb@Acts:19:13 @But also some of the Jewish exorcists, who went from place to place, attempted to name over those who had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, "I adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preaches."

nasb@Acts:19:17 @This became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who lived in Ephesus; and fear fell upon them all and the name of the Lord Jesus was being magnified.

nasb@Acts:19:21 @Now after these things were finished, Paul purposed in the Spirit to go to Jerusalem after he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."

nasb@Acts:19:23 @About that time there occurred no small disturbance concerning the Way.

nasb@Acts:19:24 @For a man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Artemis, was bringing no little business to the craftsmen;

nasb@Acts:19:25 @these he gathered together with the workmen of similar trades, and said, "Men, you know that our prosperity depends upon this business.

nasb@Acts:19:31 @Also some of the Asiarchs who were friends of his sent to him and repeatedly urged him not to venture into the theater.

nasb@Acts:19:32 @So then, some were shouting one thing and some another, for the assembly was in confusion and the majority did not know for what reason they had come together.

nasb@Acts:19:33 @Some of the crowd concluded it was Alexander, since the Jews had put him forward; and having motioned with his hand, Alexander was intending to make a defense to the assembly.

nasb@Acts:19:35 @After quieting the crowd, the town clerk said, "Men of Ephesus, what man is there after all who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is guardian of the temple of the great Artemis and of the image which fell down from heaven?

nasb@Acts:19:37" @For you have brought these men here who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of our goddess.

nasb@Acts:19:38" @So then, if Demetrius and the craftsmen who are with him have a complaint against any man, the courts are in session and proconsuls are available; let them bring charges against one another.

nasb@Acts:20:2 @When he had gone through those districts and had given them much exhortation, he came to Greece.

nasb@Acts:20:3 @And there he spent three months, and when a plot was formed against him by the Jews as he was about to set sail for Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia.

nasb@Acts:20:6 @We sailed from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and came to them at Troas within five days; and there we stayed seven days.

nasb@Acts:20:7 @On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul began talking to them, intending to leave the next day, and he prolonged his message until midnight.

nasb@Acts:20:9 @And there was a young man named Eutychus sitting on the window sill, sinking into a deep sleep; and as Paul kept on talking, he was overcome by sleep and fell down from the third floor and was picked up dead.

nasb@Acts:20:14 @And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and came to Mitylene.

nasb@Acts:20:15 @Sailing from there, we arrived the following day opposite Chios; and the next day we crossed over to Samos; and the day following we came to Miletus.

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

nasb@Acts:20:18 @And when they had come to him, he said to them, "You yourselves know, from the first day that I set foot in Asia, how I was with you the whole time,

nasb@Acts:20:19 @serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials which came upon me through the plots of the Jews;

nasb@Acts:20:22" @And now, behold, bound by the Spirit, I am on my way to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there,

nasb@Acts:20:23 @except that the Holy Spirit solemnly testifies to me in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions await me.

nasb@Acts:20:26" @Therefore, I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men.

nasb@Acts:20:29" @I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock;

nasb@Acts:20:30 @and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.

nasb@Acts:20:31" @Therefore be on the alert, remembering that night and day for a period of three years I did not cease to admonish each one with tears.

nasb@Acts:20:32" @And now I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

nasb@Acts:20:34" @You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my own needs and to the men who were with me.

nasb@Acts:20:35" @In everything I showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"

nasb@Acts:21:3 @When we came in sight of Cyprus, leaving it on the left, we kept sailing to Syria and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload its cargo.

nasb@Acts:21:6 @Then we went on board the ship, and they returned home again.

nasb@Acts:21:8 @On the next day we left and came to Caesarea, and entering the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, we stayed with him.

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

nasb@Acts:21:13 @Then Paul answered, "What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but even to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus."

nasb@Acts:21:16 @Some of the disciples from Caesarea also came with us, taking us to Mnason of Cyprus, a disciple of long standing with whom we were to lodge.

nasb@Acts:21:18 @And the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present.

nasb@Acts:21:22" @What, then, is to be done? They will certainly hear that you have come.

nasb@Acts:21:23" @Therefore do this that we tell you. We have four men who are under a vow;

nasb@Acts:21:25" @But concerning the Gentiles who have believed, we wrote, having decided that they should abstain from meat sacrificed to idols and from blood and from what is strangled and from fornication."

nasb@Acts:21:26 @Then Paul took the men, and the next day, purifying himself along with them, went into the temple giving notice of the completion of the days of purification, until the sacrifice was offered for each one of them.

nasb@Acts:21:28 @crying out, "Men of Israel, come to our aid! This is the man who preaches to all men everywhere against our people and the Law and this place; and besides he has even brought Greeks into the temple and has defiled this holy place."

nasb@Acts:21:30 @Then all the city was provoked, and the people rushed together, and taking hold of Paul they dragged him out of the temple, and immediately the doors were shut.

nasb@Acts:21:31 @While they were seeking to kill him, a report came up to the commander of the Roman cohort that all Jerusalem was in confusion.

nasb@Acts:21:32 @At once he took along some soldiers and centurions and ran down to them; and when they saw the commander and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.

nasb@Acts:21:33 @Then the commander came up and took hold of him, and ordered him to be bound with two chains; and he began asking who he was and what he had done.

nasb@Acts:21:34 @But among the crowd some were shouting one thing and some another, and when he could not find out the facts because of the uproar, he ordered him to be brought into the barracks.

nasb@Acts:21:37 @As Paul was about to be brought into the barracks, he said to the commander, "May I say something to you?" And he said, "Do you know Greek?

nasb@Acts:21:38" @Then you are not the Egyptian who some time ago stirred up a revolt and led the four thousand men of the Assassins out into the wilderness?"

nasb@Acts:21:39 @But Paul said, " I am a Jew of Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen of no insignificant city; and I beg you, allow me to speak to the people."

nasb@Acts:22:2 @And when they heard that he was addressing them in the Hebrew dialect, they became even more quiet; and he said,

nasb@Acts:22:4" @ I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and putting both men and women into prisons,

nasb@Acts:22:6" @ But it happened that as I was on my way, approaching Damascus about noontime, a very bright light suddenly flashed from heaven all around me,

nasb@Acts:22:7 @and I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?'

nasb@Acts:22:8" @And I answered, 'Who are You, Lord?' And He said to me, 'I am Jesus the Nazarene, whom you are persecuting.'

nasb@Acts:22:9" @And those who were with me saw the light, to be sure, but did not understand the voice of the One who was speaking to me.

nasb@Acts:22:10" @And I said, ' What shall I do, Lord?' And the Lord said to me, 'Get up and go on into Damascus, and there you will be told of all that has been appointed for you to do.'

nasb@Acts:22:11" @But since I could not see because of the brightness of that light, I was led by the hand by those who were with me and came into Damascus.

nasb@Acts:22:13 @came to me, and standing near said to me, ' Brother Saul, receive your sight!' And at that very time I looked up at him.

nasb@Acts:22:15 @'For you will be a witness for Him to all men of what you have seen and heard.

nasb@Acts:22:16 @'Now why do you delay? Get up and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on His name.'

nasb@Acts:22:18 @and I saw Him saying to me, ' Make haste, and get out of Jerusalem quickly, because they will not accept your testimony about Me.'

nasb@Acts:22:21" @And He said to me, 'Go! For I will send you far away to the Gentiles.'"

nasb@Acts:22:22 @They listened to him up to this statement, and then they raised their voices and said, " Away with such a fellow from the earth, for he should not be allowed to live!"

nasb@Acts:22:27 @The commander came and said to him, "Tell me, are you a Roman?" And he said, "Yes."

nasb@Acts:22:29 @Therefore those who were about to examine him immediately let go of him; and the commander also was afraid when he found out that he was a Roman, and because he had put him in chains.

nasb@Acts:23:3 @Then Paul said to him, "God is going to strike you, you whitewashed wall! Do you sit to try me according to the Law, and in violation of the Law order me to be struck?"

nasb@Acts:23:9 @And there occurred a great uproar; and some of the scribes of the Pharisaic party stood up and began to argue heatedly, saying, " We find nothing wrong with this man; suppose a spirit or an angel has spoken to him?"

nasb@Acts:23:11 @But on the night immediately following, the Lord stood at his side and said, " Take courage; for as you have solemnly witnessed to My cause at Jerusalem, so you must witness at Rome also."

nasb@Acts:23:12 @When it was day, the Jews formed a conspiracy and bound themselves under an oath, saying that they would neither eat nor drink until they had killed Paul.

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

nasb@Acts:23:14 @They came to the chief priests and the elders and said, "We have bound ourselves under a solemn oath to taste nothing until we have killed Paul.

nasb@Acts:23:15" @Now therefore, you and the Council notify the commander to bring him down to you, as though you were going to determine his case by a more thorough investigation; and we for our part are ready to slay him before he comes near the place."

nasb@Acts:23:16 @But the son of Paul's sister heard of their ambush, and he came and entered the barracks and told Paul.

nasb@Acts:23:17 @Paul called one of the centurions to him and said, "Lead this young man to the commander, for he has something to report to him."

nasb@Acts:23:18 @So he took him and led him to the commander and said, "Paul the prisoner called me to him and asked me to lead this young man to you since he has something to tell you."

nasb@Acts:23:19 @The commander took him by the hand and stepping aside, began to inquire of him privately, "What is it that you have to report to me?"

nasb@Acts:23:20 @And he said, " The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down tomorrow to the Council, as though they were going to inquire somewhat more thoroughly about him.

nasb@Acts:23:22 @So the commander let the young man go, instructing him, "Tell no one that you have notified me of these things."

nasb@Acts:23:23 @And he called to him two of the centurions and said, "Get two hundred soldiers ready by the third hour of the night to proceed to Caesarea, with seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen."

nasb@Acts:23:27" @When this man was arrested by the Jews and was about to be slain by them, I came up to them with the troops and rescued him, having learned that he was a Roman.

nasb@Acts:23:29 @and I found him to be accused over questions about their Law, but under no accusation deserving death or imprisonment.

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

nasb@Acts:23:32 @But the next day, leaving the horsemen to go on with him, they returned to the barracks.

nasb@Acts:23:33 @When these had come to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, they also presented Paul to him.

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

nasb@Acts:24:7" @But Lysias the commander came along, and with much violence took him out of our hands,

nasb@Acts:24:8 @ordering his accusers to come before you.] By examining him yourself concerning all these matters you will be able to ascertain the things of which we accuse him."

nasb@Acts:24:12" @ Neither in the temple, nor in the synagogues, nor in the city itself did they find me carrying on a discussion with anyone or causing a riot.

nasb@Acts:24:13" @ Nor can they prove to you the charges of which they now accuse me.

nasb@Acts:24:15 @having a hope in God, which these men cherish themselves, that there shall certainly be a resurrection of both the righteous and the wicked.

nasb@Acts:24:16" @In view of this, I also do my best to maintain always a blameless conscience both before God and before men.

nasb@Acts:24:17" @Now after several years I came to bring alms to my nation and to present offerings;

nasb@Acts:24:18 @in which they found me occupied in the temple, having been purified, without any crowd or uproar. But there were some Jews from Asia--

nasb@Acts:24:19 @who ought to have been present before you and to make accusation, if they should have anything against me.

nasb@Acts:24:20" @Or else let these men themselves tell what misdeed they found when I stood before the Council,

nasb@Acts:24:21 @other than for this one statement which I shouted out while standing among them, 'For the resurrection of the dead I am on trial before you today.'"

nasb@Acts:24:22 @But Felix, having a more exact knowledge about the Way, put them off, saying, "When Lysias the commander comes down, I will decide your case."

nasb@Acts:24:23 @Then he gave orders to the centurion for him to be kept in custody and yet have some freedom, and not to prevent any of his friends from ministering to him.

nasb@Acts:24:24 @But some days later Felix arrived with Drusilla, his wife who was a Jewess, and sent for Paul and heard him speak about faith in Christ Jesus.

nasb@Acts:24:25 @But as he was discussing righteousness, self-control and the judgment to come, Felix became frightened and said, "Go away for the present, and when I find time I will summon you."

nasb@Acts:24:26 @At the same time too, he was hoping that money would be given him by Paul; therefore he also used to send for him quite often and converse with him.

nasb@Acts:25:2 @And the chief priests and the leading men of the Jews brought charges against Paul, and they were urging him,

nasb@Acts:25:3 @requesting a concession against Paul, that he might have him brought to Jerusalem (at the same time, setting an ambush to kill him on the way).

nasb@Acts:25:5" @Therefore," he said, "let the influential men among you go there with me, and if there is anything wrong about the man, let them prosecute him."

nasb@Acts:25:7 @After Paul arrived, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing many and serious charges against him which they could not prove,

nasb@Acts:25:9 @But Festus, wishing to do the Jews a favor, answered Paul and said, " Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and stand trial before me on these charges?"

nasb@Acts:25:11" @If, then, I am a wrongdoer and have committed anything worthy of death, I do not refuse to die; but if none of those things is true of which these men accuse me, no one can hand me over to them. I appeal to Caesar."

nasb@Acts:25:16" @I answered them that it is not the custom of the Romans to hand over any man before the accused meets his accusers face to face and has an opportunity to make his defense against the charges.

nasb@Acts:25:17" @So after they had assembled here, I did not delay, but on the next day took my seat on the tribunal and ordered the man to be brought before me.

nasb@Acts:25:18" @When the accusers stood up, they began bringing charges against him not of such crimes as I was expecting,

nasb@Acts:25:19 @but they simply had some points of disagreement with him about their own religion and about a dead man, Jesus, whom Paul asserted to be alive.

nasb@Acts:25:23 @So, on the next day when Agrippa came together with Bernice amid great pomp, and entered the auditorium accompanied by the commanders and the prominent men of the city, at the command of Festus, Paul was brought in.

nasb@Acts:25:24 @Festus said, "King Agrippa, and all you gentlemen here present with us, you see this man about whom all the people of the Jews appealed to me, both at Jerusalem and here, loudly declaring that he ought not to live any longer.

nasb@Acts:25:26" @Yet I have nothing definite about him to write to my lord. Therefore I have brought him before you all and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that after the investigation has taken place, I may have something to write.

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

nasb@Acts:25:3 @especially because you are an expert in all customs and questions among the Jews; therefore I beg you to listen to me patiently.

nasb@Acts:25:5 @since they have known about me for a long time, if they are willing to testify, that I lived as a Pharisee according to the strictest sect of our religion.

nasb@Acts:25:9" @So then, I thought to myself that I had to do many things hostile to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

nasb@Acts:25:11" @And as I punished them often in all the synagogues, I tried to force them to blaspheme; and being furiously enraged at them, I kept pursuing them even to foreign cities.

nasb@Acts:25:13 @at midday, O King, I saw on the way a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining all around me and those who were journeying with me.

nasb@Acts:25:14" @And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew dialect, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.'

nasb@Acts:25:18 @to open their eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the dominion of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who have been sanctified by faith in Me.'

nasb@Acts:25:21" @For this reason some Jews seized me in the temple and tried to put me to death.

nasb@Acts:25:28 @Agrippa replied to Paul, "In a short time you will persuade me to become a Christian."

nasb@Acts:25:29 @And Paul said, "I would wish to God, that whether in a short or long time, not only you, but also all who hear me this day, might become such as I am, except for these chains."

nasb@Acts:25:31 @and when they had gone aside, they began talking to one another, saying, " This man is not doing anything worthy of death or imprisonment."

nasb@Acts:26:1 @When it was decided that we would sail for Italy, they proceeded to deliver Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion of the Augustan cohort named Julius.

nasb@Acts:26:8 @and with difficulty sailing past it we came to a place called Fair Havens, near which was the city of Lasea.

nasb@Acts:26:9 @When considerable time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous, since even the fast was already over, Paul began to admonish them,

nasb@Acts:26:10 @and said to them, "Men, I perceive that the voyage will certainly be with damage and great loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives."

nasb@Acts:26:12 @Because the harbor was not suitable for wintering, the majority reached a decision to put out to sea from there, if somehow they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete, facing southwest and northwest, and spend the winter there.

nasb@Acts:26:13 @When a moderate south wind came up, supposing that they had attained their purpose, they weighed anchor and began sailing along Crete, close inshore.

nasb@Acts:26:21 @When they had gone a long time without food, then Paul stood up in their midst and said, " Men, you ought to have followed my advice and not to have set sail from Crete and incurred this damage and loss.

nasb@Acts:26:23" @For this very night an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I serve stood before me,

nasb@Acts:26:25" @Therefore, keep up your courage, men, for I believe God that it will turn out exactly as I have been told.

nasb@Acts:26:27 @But when the fourteenth night came, as we were being driven about in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors began to surmise that they were approaching some land.

nasb@Acts:26:29 @Fearing that we might run aground somewhere on the rocks, they cast four anchors from the stern and wished for daybreak.

nasb@Acts:26:31 @Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, "Unless these men remain in the ship, you yourselves cannot be saved."

nasb@Acts:26:33 @Until the day was about to dawn, Paul was encouraging them all to take some food, saying, "Today is the fourteenth day that you have been constantly watching and going without eating, having taken nothing.

nasb@Acts:26:34" @Therefore I encourage you to take some food, for this is for your preservation, for not a hair from the head of any of you will perish."

nasb@Acts:26:39 @When day came, they could not recognize the land; but they did observe a bay with a beach, and they resolved to drive the ship onto it if they could.

nasb@Acts:26:40 @And casting off the anchors, they left them in the sea while at the same time they were loosening the ropes of the rudders; and hoisting the foresail to the wind, they were heading for the beach.

nasb@Acts:26:41 @But striking a reef where two seas met, they ran the vessel aground; and the prow stuck fast and remained immovable, but the stern began to be broken up by the force of the waves.

nasb@Acts:26:44 @and the rest should follow, some on planks, and others on various things from the ship. And so it happened that they all were brought safely to land.

nasb@Acts:27:3 @But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened itself on his hand.

nasb@Acts:27:6 @But they were expecting that he was about to swell up or suddenly fall down dead. But after they had waited a long time and had seen nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and began to say that he was a god.

nasb@Acts:27:7 @Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the leading man of the island, named Publius, who welcomed us and entertained us courteously three days.

nasb@Acts:27:13 @From there we sailed around and arrived at Rhegium, and a day later a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli.

nasb@Acts:27:14 @There we found some brethren, and were invited to stay with them for seven days; and thus we came to Rome.

nasb@Acts:27:15 @And the brethren, when they heard about us, came from there as far as the Market of Appius and Three Inns to meet us; and when Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.

nasb@Acts:27:16 @When we entered Rome, Paul was allowed to stay by himself, with the soldier who was guarding him.

nasb@Acts:27:17 @After three days Paul called together those who were the leading men of the Jews, and when they came together, he began saying to them, " Brethren, though I had done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.

nasb@Acts:27:18" @And when they had examined me, they were willing to release me because there was no ground for putting me to death.

nasb@Acts:27:21 @They said to him, "We have neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brethren come here and reported or spoken anything bad about you.

nasb@Acts:27:23 @When they had set a day for Paul, they came to him at his lodging in large numbers; and he was explaining to them by solemnly testifying about the kingdom of God and trying to persuade them concerning Jesus, from both the Law of Moses and from the Prophets, from morning until evening.

nasb@Acts:27:24 @Some were being persuaded by the things spoken, but others would not believe.

nasb@Acts:27:27 @FOR THE HEART OF THIS PEOPLE HAS BECOME DULL, AND WITH THEIR EARS THEY SCARCELY HEAR, AND THEY HAVE CLOSED THEIR EYES; OTHERWISE THEY MIGHT SEE WITH THEIR EYES, AND HEAR WITH THEIR EARS, AND UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEART AND RETURN, AND I WOULD HEAL THEM."'

nasb@Acts:27:30 @And he stayed two full years in his own rented quarters and was welcoming all who came to him,

nasb@Romans:1:5 @through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith among all the Gentiles for His name's sake,

nasb@Romans:1:7 @to all who are beloved of God in Rome, called as saints- Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

nasb@Romans:1:8 @First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because your faith is being proclaimed throughout the whole world.

nasb@Romans:1:9 @For God, whom I serve in my spirit in the preaching of the gospel of His Son, is my witness as to how unceasingly I make mention of you,

nasb@Romans:1:11 @For I long to see you so that I may impart some spiritual gift to you, that you may be established;

nasb@Romans:1:13 @I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that often I have planned to come to you (and have been prevented so far) so that I may obtain some fruit among you also, even as among the rest of the Gentiles.

nasb@Romans:1:15 @So, for my part, I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.

nasb@Romans:1:16 @For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

nasb@Romans:1:18 @For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

nasb@Romans:1:21 @For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

nasb@Romans:1:22 @Professing to be wise, they became fools,

nasb@Romans:1:25 @For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

nasb@Romans:1:26 @For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural,

nasb@Romans:1:27 @and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error.

nasb@Romans:1:31 @without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful;

nasb@Romans:1:32 @and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.

nasb@Romans:2:1 @Therefore you have no excuse, everyone of you who passes judgment, for in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.

nasb@Romans:2:2 @And we know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who practice such things.

nasb@Romans:2:3 @But do you suppose this, O man, when you pass judgment on those who practice such things and do the same yourself, that you will escape the judgment of God?

nasb@Romans:2:5 @But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God,

nasb@Romans:2:16 @on the day when, according to my gospel, God will judge the secrets of men through Christ Jesus.

nasb@Romans:2:17 @But if you bear the name "Jew" and rely upon the Law and boast in God,

nasb@Romans:2:20 @a corrector of the foolish, a teacher of the immature, having in the Law the embodiment of knowledge and of the truth,

nasb@Romans:2:24 @For " THE NAME OF GOD IS BLASPHEMED AMONG THE GENTILES BECAUSE OF YOU," just as it is written.

nasb@Romans:2:25 @For indeed circumcision is of value if you practice the Law; but if you are a transgressor of the Law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision.

nasb@Romans:2:26 @So if the uncircumcised man keeps the requirements of the Law, will not his uncircumcision be regarded as circumcision?

nasb@Romans:2:29 @But he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that which is of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter; and his praise is not from men, but from God.

nasb@Romans:3:3 @What then? If some did not believe, their unbelief will not nullify the faithfulness of God, will it?

nasb@Romans:3:8 @And why not say (as we are slanderously reported and as some claim that we say), " Let us do evil that good may come"? Their condemnation is just.

nasb@Romans:3:12 @ALL HAVE TURNED ASIDE, TOGETHER THEY HAVE BECOME USELESS; THERE IS NONE WHO DOES GOOD, THERE IS NOT EVEN ONE."

nasb@Romans:3:19 @Now we know that whatever the Law says, it speaks to those who are under the Law, so that every mouth may be closed and all the world may become accountable to God;

nasb@Romans:3:20 @because by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law comes the knowledge of sin.

nasb@Romans:3:26 @for the demonstration, I say, of His righteousness at the present time, so that He would be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.

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

nasb@Romans:4:18 @In hope against hope he believed, so that he might become a father of many nations according to that which had been spoken, " SO SHALL YOUR DESCENDANTS BE."

nasb@Romans:5:6 @For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.

nasb@Romans:5:7 @For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die.

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

nasb@Romans:5:14 @Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those who had not sinned in the likeness of the offense of Adam, who is a type of Him who was to come.

nasb@Romans:5:16 @The gift is not like that which came through the one who sinned; for on the one hand the judgment arose from one transgression resulting in condemnation, but on the other hand the free gift arose from many transgressions resulting in justification.

nasb@Romans:5:18 @So then as through one transgression there resulted condemnation to all men, even so through one act of righteousness there resulted justification of life to all men.

nasb@Romans:5:20 @The Law came in so that the transgression would increase; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more,

nasb@Romans:6:5 @For if we have become united with Him in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection,

nasb@Romans:6:13 @and do not go on presenting the members of your body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves to God as those alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

nasb@Romans:6:16 @Do you not know that when you present yourselves to someone as slaves for obedience, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin resulting in death, or of obedience resulting in righteousness?

nasb@Romans:6:17 @But thanks be to God that though you were slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were committed,

nasb@Romans:6:18 @and having been freed from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.

nasb@Romans:6:19 @I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness, resulting in further lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness, resulting in sanctification.

nasb@Romans:6:21 @Therefore what benefit were you then deriving from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the outcome of those things is death.

nasb@Romans:6:22 @But now having been freed from sin and enslaved to God, you derive your benefit, resulting in sanctification, and the outcome, eternal life.

nasb@Romans:7:5 @For while we were in the flesh, the sinful passions, which were aroused by the Law, were at work in the members of our body to bear fruit for death.

nasb@Romans:7:7 @What shall we say then? Is the Law sin? May it never be! On the contrary, I would not have come to know sin except through the Law; for I would not have known about coveting if the Law had not said, " YOU SHALL NOT COVET."

nasb@Romans:7:8 @But sin, taking opportunity through the commandment, produced in me coveting of every kind; for apart from the Law sin is dead.

nasb@Romans:7:9 @I was once alive apart from the Law; but when the commandment came, sin became alive and I died;

nasb@Romans:7:10 @and this commandment, which was to result in life, proved to result in death for me;

nasb@Romans:7:11 @for sin, taking an opportunity through the commandment, deceived me and through it killed me.

nasb@Romans:7:12 @So then, the Law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good.

nasb@Romans:7:13 @Therefore did that which is good become a cause of death for me? May it never be! Rather it was sin, in order that it might be shown to be sin by effecting my death through that which is good, so that through the commandment sin would become utterly sinful.

nasb@Romans:7:17 @So now, no longer am I the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me.

nasb@Romans:7:18 @For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh; for the willing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not.

nasb@Romans:7:20 @But if I am doing the very thing I do not want, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me.

nasb@Romans:7:21 @I find then the principle that evil is present in me, the one who wants to do good.

nasb@Romans:7:23 @but I see a different law in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin which is in my members.

nasb@Romans:7:24 @Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death?

nasb@Romans:8:4 @so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

nasb@Romans:8:18 @For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us.

nasb@Romans:8:26 @In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words;

nasb@Romans:8:29 @For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren;

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

nasb@Romans:9:1 @I am telling the truth in Christ, I am not lying, my conscience testifies with me in the Holy Spirit,

nasb@Romans:9:3 @For I could wish that I myself were accursed, separated from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh,

nasb@Romans:9:5 @whose are the fathers, and from whom is the Christ according to the flesh, who is over all, God blessed forever. Amen.

nasb@Romans:9:7 @nor are they all children because they are Abraham's descendants, but- " THROUGH ISAAC YOUR DESCENDANTS WILL BE NAMED."

nasb@Romans:9:9 @For this is the word of promise- " AT THIS TIME I WILL COME, AND SARAH SHALL HAVE A SON."

nasb@Romans:9:15 @For He says to Moses, " I WILL HAVE MERCY ON WHOM I HAVE MERCY, AND I WILL HAVE COMPASSION ON WHOM I HAVE COMPASSION."

nasb@Romans:9:16 @So then it does not depend on the man who wills or the man who runs, but on God who has mercy.

nasb@Romans:9:17 @For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, " FOR THIS VERY PURPOSE I RAISED YOU UP, TO DEMONSTRATE MY POWER IN YOU, AND THAT MY NAME MIGHT BE PROCLAIMED THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE EARTH."

nasb@Romans:9:18 @So then He has mercy on whom He desires, and He hardens whom He desires.

nasb@Romans:9:19 @You will say to me then, " Why does He still find fault? For who resists His will?"

nasb@Romans:9:20 @On the contrary, who are you, O man, who answers back to God? The thing molded will not say to the molder, "Why did you make me like this," will it?

nasb@Romans:9:21 @Or does not the potter have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for common use?

nasb@Romans:9:23 @And He did so to make known the riches of His glory upon vessels of mercy, which He prepared beforehand for glory,

nasb@Romans:9:29 @And just as Isaiah foretold, " UNLESS THE LORD OF SABAOTH HAD LEFT TO US A POSTERITY, WE WOULD HAVE BECOME LIKE SODOM, AND WOULD HAVE RESEMBLED GOMORRAH."

nasb@Romans:10:12 @For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him;

nasb@Romans:10:13 @for " WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED."

nasb@Romans:10:17 @So faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.

nasb@Romans:10:20 @And Isaiah is very bold and says, " I WAS FOUND BY THOSE WHO DID NOT SEEK ME, I BECAME MANIFEST TO THOSE WHO DID NOT ASK FOR ME."

nasb@Romans:11:4 @But what is the divine response to him? " I HAVE KEPT for Myself SEVEN THOUSAND MEN WHO HAVE NOT BOWED THE KNEE TO BAAL."

nasb@Romans:11:5 @In the same way then, there has also come to be at the present time a remnant according to God's gracious choice.

nasb@Romans:11:9 @And David says, " LET THEIR TABLE BECOME A SNARE AND A TRAP, AND A STUMBLING BLOCK AND A RETRIBUTION TO THEM.

nasb@Romans:11:11 @I say then, they did not stumble so as to fall, did they? May it never be! But by their transgression salvation has come to the Gentiles, to make them jealous.

nasb@Romans:11:12 @Now if their transgression is riches for the world and their failure is riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their fulfillment be!

nasb@Romans:11:14 @if somehow I might move to jealousy my fellow countrymen and save some of them.

nasb@Romans:11:17 @But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the rich root of the olive tree,

nasb@Romans:11:18 @do not be arrogant toward the branches; but if you are arrogant, remember that it is not you who supports the root, but the root supports you.

nasb@Romans:11:25 @For I do not want you, brethren, to be uninformed of this mystery--so that you will not be wise in your own estimation--that a partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in;

nasb@Romans:11:26 @and so all Israel will be saved; just as it is written, " THE DELIVERER WILL COME FROM ZION, HE WILL REMOVE UNGODLINESS FROM JACOB."

nasb@Romans:11:30 @For just as you once were disobedient to God, but now have been shown mercy because of their disobedience,

nasb@Romans:11:31 @so these also now have been disobedient, that because of the mercy shown to you they also may now be shown mercy.

nasb@Romans:11:32 @For God has shut up all in disobedience so that He may show mercy to all.

nasb@Romans:11:33 @Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways!

nasb@Romans:11:34 @For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD, OR WHO BECAME HIS COUNSELOR?

nasb@Romans:11:36 @For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen.

nasb@Romans:12:1 @Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.

nasb@Romans:12:2 @And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.

nasb@Romans:12:3 @For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith.

nasb@Romans:12:4 @For just as we have many members in one body and all the members do not have the same function,

nasb@Romans:12:5 @so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another.

nasb@Romans:12:8 @or he who exhorts, in his exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.

nasb@Romans:12:16 @Be of the same mind toward one another; do not be haughty in mind, but associate with the lowly. Do not be wise in your own estimation.

nasb@Romans:12:17 @Never pay back evil for evil to anyone. Respect what is right in the sight of all men.

nasb@Romans:12:18 @If possible, so far as it depends on you, be at peace with all men.

nasb@Romans:12:21 @Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

nasb@Romans:13:3 @For rulers are not a cause of fear for good behavior, but for evil. Do you want to have no fear of authority? Do what is good and you will have praise from the same;

nasb@Romans:13:9 @For this, " YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY, YOU SHALL NOT MURDER, YOU SHALL NOT STEAL, YOU SHALL NOT COVET," and if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, " YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."

nasb@Romans:13:10 @Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

nasb@Romans:13:11 @Do this, knowing the time, that it is already the hour for you to awaken from sleep; for now salvation is nearer to us than when we believed.

nasb@Romans:14:1 @Now accept the one who is weak in faith, but not for the purpose of passing judgment on his opinions.

nasb@Romans:14:10 @But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you regard your brother with contempt? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God.

nasb@Romans:14:11 @For it is written, " AS I LIVE, SAYS THE LORD, EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW TO ME, AND EVERY TONGUE SHALL GIVE PRAISE TO GOD."

nasb@Romans:14:18 @For he who in this way serves Christ is acceptable to God and approved by men.

nasb@Romans:14:21 @It is good not to eat meat or to drink wine, or to do anything by which your brother stumbles.

nasb@Romans:15:3 @For even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, " THE REPROACHES OF THOSE WHO REPROACHED YOU FELL ON ME."

nasb@Romans:15:4 @For whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction, so that through perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

nasb@Romans:15:5 @Now may the God who gives perseverance and encouragement grant you to be of the same mind with one another according to Christ Jesus,

nasb@Romans:15:8 @For I say that Christ has become a servant to the circumcision on behalf of the truth of God to confirm the promises given to the fathers,

nasb@Romans:15:9 @and for the Gentiles to glorify God for His mercy; as it is written, " THEREFORE I WILL GIVE PRAISE TO YOU AMONG THE GENTILES, AND I WILL SING TO YOUR NAME."

nasb@Romans:15:12 @Again Isaiah says, " THERE SHALL COME THE ROOT OF JESSE, AND HE WHO ARISES TO RULE OVER THE GENTILES, IN HIM SHALL THE GENTILES HOPE."

nasb@Romans:15:15 @But I have written very boldly to you on some points so as to remind you again, because of the grace that was given me from God,

nasb@Romans:15:16 @to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, ministering as a priest the gospel of God, so that my offering of the Gentiles may become acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

nasb@Romans:15:18 @For I will not presume to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me, resulting in the obedience of the Gentiles by word and deed,

nasb@Romans:15:20 @And thus I aspired to preach the gospel, not where Christ was already named, so that I would not build on another man's foundation;

nasb@Romans:15:23 @but now, with no further place for me in these regions, and since I have had for many years a longing to come to you

nasb@Romans:15:29 @I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fullness of the blessing of Christ.

nasb@Romans:15:30 @Now I urge you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God for me,

nasb@Romans:15:32 @so that I may come to you in joy by the will of God and find refreshing rest in your company.

nasb@Romans:15:33 @Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.

nasb@Romans:16:1 @I commend to you our sister Phoebe, who is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea;

nasb@Romans:16:7 @Greet Andronicus and Junias, my kinsmen and my fellow prisoners, who are outstanding among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.

nasb@Romans:16:14 @Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas and the brethren with them.

nasb@Romans:16:18 @For such men are slaves, not of our Lord Christ but of their own appetites; and by their smooth and flattering speech they deceive the hearts of the unsuspecting.

nasb@Romans:16:21 @Timothy my fellow worker greets you, and so do Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my kinsmen.

nasb@Romans:16:23 @Gaius, host to me and to the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the city treasurer greets you, and Quartus, the brother.

nasb@Romans:16:24 @[ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.]

nasb@Romans:16:26 @but now is manifested, and by the Scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, has been made known to all the nations, leading to obedience of faith;

nasb@Romans:16:27 @to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be the glory forever. Amen.

nasb@1Corinthians:1:2 @To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, saints by calling, with all who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours-

nasb@1Corinthians:1:6 @even as the testimony concerning Christ was confirmed in you,

nasb@1Corinthians:1:8 @who will also confirm you to the end, blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nasb@1Corinthians:1:10 @Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all agree and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be made complete in the same mind and in the same judgment.

nasb@1Corinthians:1:11 @For I have been informed concerning you, my brethren, by Chloe's people, that there are quarrels among you.

nasb@1Corinthians:1:12 @Now I mean this, that each one of you is saying, "I am of Paul," and "I of Apollos," and "I of Cephas," and "I of Christ."

nasb@1Corinthians:1:13 @Has Christ been divided? Paul was not crucified for you, was he? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

nasb@1Corinthians:1:15 @so that no one would say you were baptized in my name.

nasb@1Corinthians:1:17 @For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not in cleverness of speech, so that the cross of Christ would not be made void.

nasb@1Corinthians:1:21 @For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not come to know God, God was well-pleased through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.

nasb@1Corinthians:1:25 @Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

nasb@1Corinthians:1:27 @but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong,

nasb@1Corinthians:1:30 @But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption,

nasb@1Corinthians:2:1 @And when I came to you, brethren, I did not come with superiority of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.

nasb@1Corinthians:2:4 @and my message and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

nasb@1Corinthians:2:5 @so that your faith would not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.

nasb@1Corinthians:2:11 @For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God no one knows except the Spirit of God.

nasb@1Corinthians:3:1 @And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to infants in Christ.

nasb@1Corinthians:3:3 @for you are still fleshly. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshly, and are you not walking like mere men?

nasb@1Corinthians:3:4 @For when one says, "I am of Paul," and another, "I am of Apollos," are you not mere men?

nasb@1Corinthians:3:10 @According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it.

nasb@1Corinthians:3:13 @each man's work will become evident; for the day will show it because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the quality of each man's work.

nasb@1Corinthians:3:18 @Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you thinks that he is wise in this age, he must become foolish, so that he may become wise.

nasb@1Corinthians:3:21 @So then let no one boast in men. For all things belong to you,

nasb@1Corinthians:3:22 @whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or things present or things to come; all things belong to you,

nasb@1Corinthians:4:3 @But to me it is a very small thing that I may be examined by you, or by any human court; in fact, I do not even examine myself.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:4 @For I am conscious of nothing against myself, yet I am not by this acquitted; but the one who examines me is the Lord.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:5 @Therefore do not go on passing judgment before the time, but wait until the Lord comes who will both bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of men's hearts; and then each man's praise will come to him from God.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:6 @Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively applied to myself and Apollos for your sakes, so that in us you may learn not to exceed what is written, so that no one of you will become arrogant in behalf of one against the other.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:8 @You are already filled, you have already become rich, you have become kings without us; and indeed, I wish that you had become kings so that we also might reign with you.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:9 @For, I think, God has exhibited us apostles last of all, as men condemned to death; because we have become a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:11 @To this present hour we are both hungry and thirsty, and are poorly clothed, and are roughly treated, and are homeless;

nasb@1Corinthians:4:13 @when we are slandered, we try to conciliate; we have become as the scum of the world, the dregs of all things, even until now.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:14 @I do not write these things to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:15 @For if you were to have countless tutors in Christ, yet you would not have many fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:16 @Therefore I exhort you, be imitators of me.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:18 @Now some have become arrogant, as though I were not coming to you.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:19 @But I will come to you soon, if the Lord wills, and I shall find out, not the words of those who are arrogant but their power.

nasb@1Corinthians:4:21 @What do you desireNULL Shall I come to you with a rod, or with love and a spirit of gentlenessNULL

nasb@1Corinthians:5:1 @It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and immorality of such a kind as does not exist even among the Gentiles, that someone has his father's wife.

nasb@1Corinthians:5:2 @You have become arrogant and have not mourned instead, so that the one who had done this deed would be removed from your midst.

nasb@1Corinthians:5:4 @In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are assembled, and I with you in spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,

nasb@1Corinthians:5:10 @I did not at all mean with the immoral people of this world, or with the covetous and swindlers, or with idolaters, for then you would have to go out of the world.

nasb@1Corinthians:6:5 @I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not among you one wise man who will be able to decide between his brethren,

nasb@1Corinthians:6:11 @Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

nasb@1Corinthians:6:12 @All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be mastered by anything.

nasb@1Corinthians:6:15 @Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take away the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? May it never be!

nasb@1Corinthians:6:16 @Or do you not know that the one who joins himself to a prostitute is one body with her? For He says, " THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH."

nasb@1Corinthians:7:5 @Stop depriving one another, except by agreement for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer, and come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

nasb@1Corinthians:7:7 @Yet I wish that all men were even as I myself am. However, each man has his own gift from God, one in this manner, and another in that.

nasb@1Corinthians:7:18 @Was any man called when he was already circumcised? He is not to become uncircumcised. Has anyone been called in uncircumcision? He is not to be circumcised.

nasb@1Corinthians:7:19 @Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but what matters is the keeping of the commandments of God.

nasb@1Corinthians:7:21 @Were you called while a slave? Do not worry about it; but if you are able also to become free, rather do that.

nasb@1Corinthians:7:23 @You were bought with a price; do not become slaves of men.

nasb@1Corinthians:7:25 @Now concerning virgins I have no command of the Lord, but I give an opinion as one who by the mercy of the Lord is trustworthy.

nasb@1Corinthians:7:29 @But this I say, brethren, the time has been shortened, so that from now on those who have wives should be as though they had none;

nasb@1Corinthians:8:7 @However not all men have this knowledge; but some, being accustomed to the idol until now, eat food as if it were sacrificed to an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.

nasb@1Corinthians:8:8 @But food will not commend us to God; we are neither the worse if we do not eat, nor the better if we do eat.

nasb@1Corinthians:8:9 @But take care that this liberty of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.

nasb@1Corinthians:8:10 @For if someone sees you, who have knowledge, dining in an idol's temple, will not his conscience, if he is weak, be strengthened to eat things sacrificed to idols?

nasb@1Corinthians:8:13 @Therefore, if food causes my brother to stumble, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause my brother to stumble.

nasb@1Corinthians:9:3 @My defense to those who examine me is this-

nasb@1Corinthians:9:7 @Who at any time serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat the fruit of it? Or who tends a flock and does not use the milk of the flock?

nasb@1Corinthians:9:8 @I am not speaking these things according to human judgment, am I? Or does not the Law also say these things?

nasb@1Corinthians:9:15 @But I have used none of these things. And I am not writing these things so that it will be done so in my case; for it would be better for me to die than have any man make my boast an empty one.

nasb@1Corinthians:9:16 @For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of, for I am under compulsion; for woe is me if I do not preach the gospel.

nasb@1Corinthians:9:17 @For if I do this voluntarily, I have a reward; but if against my will, I have a stewardship entrusted to me.

nasb@1Corinthians:9:19 @For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a slave to all, so that I may win more.

nasb@1Corinthians:9:20 @To the Jews I became as a Jew, so that I might win Jews; to those who are under the Law, as under the Law though not being myself under the Law, so that I might win those who are under the Law;

nasb@1Corinthians:9:22 @To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak; I have become all things to all men, so that I may by all means save some.

nasb@1Corinthians:9:23 @I do all things for the sake of the gospel, so that I may become a fellow partaker of it.

nasb@1Corinthians:9:25 @Everyone who competes in the games exercises self-control in all things. They then do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.

nasb@1Corinthians:10:3 @and all ate the same spiritual food;

nasb@1Corinthians:10:4 @and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking from a spiritual rock which followed them; and the rock was Christ.

nasb@1Corinthians:10:7 @Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written, " THE PEOPLE SAT DOWN TO EAT AND DRINK, AND STOOD UP TO PLAY."

nasb@1Corinthians:10:8 @Nor let us act immorally, as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in one day.

nasb@1Corinthians:10:9 @Nor let us try the Lord, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the serpents.

nasb@1Corinthians:10:10 @Nor grumble, as some of them did, and were destroyed by the destroyer.

nasb@1Corinthians:10:11 @Now these things happened to them as an example, and they were written for our instruction, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.

nasb@1Corinthians:10:15 @I speak as to wise men; you judge what I say.

nasb@1Corinthians:10:19 @What do I mean then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?

nasb@1Corinthians:10:20 @No, but I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God; and I do not want you to become sharers in demons.

nasb@1Corinthians:10:25 @Eat anything that is sold in the meat market without asking questions for conscience' sake;

nasb@1Corinthians:10:28 @But if anyone says to you, "This is meat sacrificed to idols," do not eat it, for the sake of the one who informed you, and for conscience' sake;

nasb@1Corinthians:10:29 @I mean not your own conscience, but the other man's; for why is my freedom judged by another's conscience?

nasb@1Corinthians:10:33 @just as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit but the profit of the many, so that they may be saved.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:1 @Be imitators of me, just as I also am of Christ.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:2 @Now I praise you because you remember me in everything and hold firmly to the traditions, just as I delivered them to you.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:4 @Every man who has something on his head while praying or prophesying disgraces his head.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:5 @But every woman who has her head uncovered while praying or prophesying disgraces her head, for she is one and the same as the woman whose head is shaved.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:17 @But in giving this instruction, I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:18 @For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that divisions exist among you; and in part I believe it.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:19 @For there must also be factions among you, so that those who are approved may become evident among you.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:20 @Therefore when you meet together, it is not to eat the Lord's Supper,

nasb@1Corinthians:11:22 @What! Do you not have houses in which to eat and drink? Or do you despise the church of God and shame those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? In this I will not praise you.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:24 @and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me."

nasb@1Corinthians:11:25 @In the same way He took the cup also after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me."

nasb@1Corinthians:11:26 @For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until He comes.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:29 @For he who eats and drinks, eats and drinks judgment to himself if he does not judge the body rightly.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:33 @So then, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

nasb@1Corinthians:11:34 @If anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, so that you will not come together for judgment. The remaining matters I will arrange when I come.

nasb@1Corinthians:12:4 @Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit.

nasb@1Corinthians:12:5 @And there are varieties of ministries, and the same Lord.

nasb@1Corinthians:12:6 @There are varieties of effects, but the same God who works all things in all persons.

nasb@1Corinthians:12:8 @For to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit;

nasb@1Corinthians:12:9 @to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit,

nasb@1Corinthians:12:11 @But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually just as He wills.

nasb@1Corinthians:12:12 @For even as the body is one and yet has many members, and all the members of the body, though they are many, are one body, so also is Christ.

nasb@1Corinthians:12:14 @For the body is not one member, but many.

nasb@1Corinthians:12:17 @If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the sense of smell be?

nasb@1Corinthians:12:18 @But now God has placed the members, each one of them, in the body, just as He desired.

nasb@1Corinthians:12:19 @If they were all one member, where would the body be?

nasb@1Corinthians:12:20 @But now there are many members, but one body.

nasb@1Corinthians:12:22 @On the contrary, it is much truer that the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary;

nasb@1Corinthians:12:23 @and those members of the body which we deem less honorable, on these we bestow more abundant honor, and our less presentable members become much more presentable,

nasb@1Corinthians:12:24 @whereas our more presentable members have no need of it. But God has so composed the body, giving more abundant honor to that member which lacked,

nasb@1Corinthians:12:25 @so that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another.

nasb@1Corinthians:12:26 @And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

nasb@1Corinthians:12:27 @Now you are Christ's body, and individually members of it.

nasb@1Corinthians:13:1 @If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

nasb@1Corinthians:13:3 @And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing.

nasb@1Corinthians:13:10 @but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away.

nasb@1Corinthians:13:11 @When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things.

nasb@1Corinthians:14:2 @For one who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God; for no one understands, but in his spirit he speaks mysteries.

nasb@1Corinthians:14:3 @But one who prophesies speaks to men for edification and exhortation and consolation.

nasb@1Corinthians:14:6 @But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking in tongues, what will I profit you unless I speak to you either by way of revelation or of knowledge or of prophecy or of teaching?

nasb@1Corinthians:14:10 @There are, perhaps, a great many kinds of languages in the world, and no kind is without meaning.

nasb@1Corinthians:14:11 @If then I do not know the meaning of the language, I will be to the one who speaks a barbarian, and the one who speaks will be a barbarian to me.

nasb@1Corinthians:14:15 @What is the outcome then? I will pray with the spirit and I will pray with the mind also; I will sing with the spirit and I will sing with the mind also.

nasb@1Corinthians:14:16 @Otherwise if you bless in the spirit only, how will the one who fills the place of the ungifted say the "Amen" at your giving of thanks, since he does not know what you are saying?

nasb@1Corinthians:14:21 @In the Law it is written, " BY MEN OF STRANGE TONGUES AND BY THE LIPS OF STRANGERS I WILL SPEAK TO THIS PEOPLE, AND EVEN SO THEY WILL NOT LISTEN TO ME," says the Lord.

nasb@1Corinthians:14:23 @Therefore if the whole church assembles together and all speak in tongues, and ungifted men or unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are mad?

nasb@1Corinthians:14:26 @What is the outcome then, brethren? When you assemble, each one has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has a tongue, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

nasb@1Corinthians:14:29 @Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others pass judgment.

nasb@1Corinthians:14:34 @The women are to keep silent in the churches; for they are not permitted to speak, but are to subject themselves, just as the Law also says.

nasb@1Corinthians:14:35 @If they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is improper for a woman to speak in church.

nasb@1Corinthians:14:36 @Was it from you that the word of God first went forth? Or has it come to you only?

nasb@1Corinthians:14:37 @If anyone thinks he is a prophet or spiritual, let him recognize that the things which I write to you are the Lord's commandment.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:6 @After that He appeared to more than five hundred brethren at one time, most of whom remain until now, but some have fallen asleep;

nasb@1Corinthians:15:7 @then He appeared to James, then to all the apostles;

nasb@1Corinthians:15:8 @and last of all, as to one untimely born, He appeared to me also.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:10 @But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me did not prove vain; but I labored even more than all of them, yet not I, but the grace of God with me.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:12 @Now if Christ is preached, that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

nasb@1Corinthians:15:19 @If we have hoped in Christ in this life only, we are of all men most to be pitied.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:21 @For since by a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the dead.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:24 @then comes the end, when He hands over the kingdom to the God and Father, when He has abolished all rule and all authority and power.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:32 @If from human motives I fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, LET US EAT AND DRINK, FOR TOMORROW WE DIE.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:34 @Become sober-minded as you ought, and stop sinning; for some have no knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:35 @But someone will say, "How are the dead raised? And with what kind of body do they come?"

nasb@1Corinthians:15:36 @You fool! That which you sow does not come to life unless it dies;

nasb@1Corinthians:15:37 @and that which you sow, you do not sow the body which is to be, but a bare grain, perhaps of wheat or of something else.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:39 @All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fish.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:45 @So also it is written, "The first MAN, Adam, BECAME A LIVING SOUL." The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:52 @in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.

nasb@1Corinthians:15:54 @But when this perishable will have put on the imperishable, and this mortal will have put on immortality, then will come about the saying that is written, " DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP in victory.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:2 @On the first day of every week each one of you is to put aside and save, as he may prosper, so that no collections be made when I come.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:3 @When I arrive, whomever you may approve, I will send them with letters to carry your gift to Jerusalem;

nasb@1Corinthians:16:4 @and if it is fitting for me to go also, they will go with me.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:5 @But I will come to you after I go through Macedonia, for I am going through Macedonia;

nasb@1Corinthians:16:6 @and perhaps I will stay with you, or even spend the winter, so that you may send me on my way wherever I may go.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:7 @For I do not wish to see you now just in passing; for I hope to remain with you for some time, if the Lord permits.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:9 @for a wide door for effective service has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:10 @Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without cause to be afraid, for he is doing the Lord's work, as I also am.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:11 @So let no one despise him. But send him on his way in peace, so that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brethren.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:12 @But concerning Apollos our brother, I encouraged him greatly to come to you with the brethren; and it was not at all his desire to come now, but he will come when he has opportunity.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:13 @Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:16 @that you also be in subjection to such men and to everyone who helps in the work and labors.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:18 @For they have refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge such men.

nasb@1Corinthians:16:24 @My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

nasb@2Corinthians:1:3 @Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,

nasb@2Corinthians:1:6 @But if we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; or if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which is effective in the patient enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer;

nasb@2Corinthians:1:8 @For we do not want you to be unaware, brethren, of our affliction which came to us in Asia, that we were burdened excessively, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life;

nasb@2Corinthians:1:15 @In this confidence I intended at first to come to you, so that you might twice receive a blessing;

nasb@2Corinthians:1:16 @that is, to pass your way into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and by you to be helped on my journey to Judea.

nasb@2Corinthians:1:17 @Therefore, I was not vacillating when I intended to do this, was I? Or what I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, so that with me there will be yes, yes and no, no at the same time?

nasb@2Corinthians:1:19 @For the Son of God, Christ Jesus, who was preached among you by us--by me and Silvanus and Timothy--was not yes and no, but is yes in Him.

nasb@2Corinthians:1:20 @For as many as are the promises of God, in Him they are yes; therefore also through Him is our Amen to the glory of God through us.

nasb@2Corinthians:1:23 @But I call God as witness to my soul, that to spare you I did not come again to Corinth.

nasb@2Corinthians:2:1 @But I determined this for my own sake, that I would not come to you in sorrow again.

nasb@2Corinthians:2:2 @For if I cause you sorrow, who then makes me glad but the one whom I made sorrowful?

nasb@2Corinthians:2:3 @This is the very thing I wrote you, so that when I came, I would not have sorrow from those who ought to make me rejoice; having confidence in you all that my joy would be the joy of you all.

nasb@2Corinthians:2:5 @But if any has caused sorrow, he has caused sorrow not to me, but in some degree--in order not to say too much--to all of you.

nasb@2Corinthians:2:6 @Sufficient for such a one is this punishment which was inflicted by the majority,

nasb@2Corinthians:2:7 @so that on the contrary you should rather forgive and comfort him, otherwise such a one might be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow.

nasb@2Corinthians:2:11 @so that no advantage would be taken of us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.

nasb@2Corinthians:2:12 @Now when I came to Troas for the gospel of Christ and when a door was opened for me in the Lord,

nasb@2Corinthians:3:1 @Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, as some, letters of commendation to you or from you?

nasb@2Corinthians:3:2 @You are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all men;

nasb@2Corinthians:3:7 @But if the ministry of death, in letters engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the sons of Israel could not look intently at the face of Moses because of the glory of his face, fading as it was,

nasb@2Corinthians:3:14 @But their minds were hardened; for until this very day at the reading of the old covenant the same veil remains unlifted, because it is removed in Christ.

nasb@2Corinthians:3:18 @But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit.

nasb@2Corinthians:4:1 @Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not lose heart,

nasb@2Corinthians:4:2 @but we have renounced the things hidden because of shame, not walking in craftiness or adulterating the word of God, but by the manifestation of truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

nasb@2Corinthians:4:13 @But having the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, " I BELIEVED, THEREFORE I SPOKE," we also believe, therefore we also speak,

nasb@2Corinthians:4:17 @For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison,

nasb@2Corinthians:5:6 @Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord--

nasb@2Corinthians:5:8 @we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord.

nasb@2Corinthians:5:9 @Therefore we also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent, to be pleasing to Him.

nasb@2Corinthians:5:10 @For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

nasb@2Corinthians:5:11 @Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men, but we are made manifest to God; and I hope that we are made manifest also in your consciences.

nasb@2Corinthians:5:12 @We are not again commending ourselves to you but are giving you an occasion to be proud of us, so that you will have an answer for those who take pride in appearance and not in heart.

nasb@2Corinthians:5:17 @Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.

nasb@2Corinthians:5:19 @namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation.

nasb@2Corinthians:5:21 @He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

nasb@2Corinthians:6:2 @for He says, " AT THE ACCEPTABLE TIME I LISTENED TO YOU, AND ON THE DAY OF SALVATION I HELPED YOU." Behold, now is "THE ACCEPTABLE TIME," behold, now is "THE DAY OF SALVATION"--

nasb@2Corinthians:6:4 @but in everything commending ourselves as servants of God, in much endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses,

nasb@2Corinthians:6:5 @in beatings, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in hunger,

nasb@2Corinthians:6:16 @Or what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; just as God said, " I WILL DWELL IN THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM; AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.

nasb@2Corinthians:6:17" @ Therefore, COME OUT FROM THEIR MIDST AND BE SEPARATE," says the Lord. "AND DO NOT TOUCH WHAT IS UNCLEAN; And I will welcome you.

nasb@2Corinthians:6:18" @ And I will be a father to you, And you shall be sons and daughters to Me," Says the Lord Almighty.

nasb@2Corinthians:7:1 @Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

nasb@2Corinthians:7:5 @For even when we came into Macedonia our flesh had no rest, but we were afflicted on every side- conflicts without, fears within.

nasb@2Corinthians:7:7 @and not only by his coming, but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you, as he reported to us your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me; so that I rejoiced even more.

nasb@2Corinthians:7:14 @For if in anything I have boasted to him about you, I was not put to shame; but as we spoke all things to you in truth, so also our boasting before Titus proved to be the truth.

nasb@2Corinthians:7:15 @His affection abounds all the more toward you, as he remembers the obedience of you all, how you received him with fear and trembling.

nasb@2Corinthians:8:9 @For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sake He became poor, so that you through His poverty might become rich.

nasb@2Corinthians:8:14 @at this present time your abundance being a supply for their need, so that their abundance also may become a supply for your need, that there may be equality;

nasb@2Corinthians:8:16 @But thanks be to God who puts the same earnestness on your behalf in the heart of Titus.

nasb@2Corinthians:8:18 @We have sent along with him the brother whose fame in the things of the gospel has spread through all the churches;

nasb@2Corinthians:8:21 @for we have regard for what is honorable, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.

nasb@2Corinthians:8:23 @As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker among you; as for our brethren, they are messengers of the churches, a glory to Christ.

nasb@2Corinthians:9:1 @For it is superfluous for me to write to you about this ministry to the saints;

nasb@2Corinthians:9:2 @for I know your readiness, of which I boast about you to the Macedonians, namely, that Achaia has been prepared since last year, and your zeal has stirred up most of them.

nasb@2Corinthians:9:4 @otherwise if any Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we--not to speak of you--will be put to shame by this confidence.

nasb@2Corinthians:9:5 @So I thought it necessary to urge the brethren that they would go on ahead to you and arrange beforehand your previously promised bountiful gift, so that the same would be ready as a bountiful gift and not affected by covetousness.

nasb@2Corinthians:10:1 @Now I, Paul, myself urge you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ--I who am meek when face to face with you, but bold toward you when absent!

nasb@2Corinthians:10:2 @I ask that when I am present I need not be bold with the confidence with which I propose to be courageous against some, who regard us as if we walked according to the flesh.

nasb@2Corinthians:10:8 @For even if I boast somewhat further about our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for destroying you, I will not be put to shame,

nasb@2Corinthians:10:12 @For we are not bold to class or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves; but when they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are without understanding.

nasb@2Corinthians:10:13 @But we will not boast beyond our measure, but within the measure of the sphere which God apportioned to us as a measure, to reach even as far as you.

nasb@2Corinthians:10:14 @For we are not overextending ourselves, as if we did not reach to you, for we were the first to come even as far as you in the gospel of Christ;

nasb@2Corinthians:10:15 @not boasting beyond our measure, that is, in other men's labors, but with the hope that as your faith grows, we will be, within our sphere, enlarged even more by you,

nasb@2Corinthians:10:18 @For it is not he who commends himself that is approved, but he whom the Lord commends.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:1 @I wish that you would bear with me in a little foolishness; but indeed you are bearing with me.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:4 @For if one comes and preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted, you bear this beautifully.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:9 @and when I was present with you and was in need, I was not a burden to anyone; for when the brethren came from Macedonia they fully supplied my need, and in everything I kept myself from being a burden to you, and will continue to do so.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:10 @As the truth of Christ is in me, this boasting of mine will not be stopped in the regions of Achaia.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:13 @For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:16 @Again I say, let no one think me foolish; but if you do, receive me even as foolish, so that I also may boast a little.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:21 @To my shame I must say that we have been weak by comparison. But in whatever respect anyone else is bold--I speak in foolishness--I am just as bold myself.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:23 @Are they servants of Christ?--I speak as if insane--I more so; in far more labors, in far more imprisonments, beaten times without number, often in danger of death.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:24 @Five times I received from the Jews thirty-nine lashes.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:25 @Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was stoned, three times I was shipwrecked, a night and a day I have spent in the deep.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:26 @I have been on frequent journeys, in dangers from rivers, dangers from robbers, dangers from my countrymen, dangers from the Gentiles, dangers in the city, dangers in the wilderness, dangers on the sea, dangers among false brethren;

nasb@2Corinthians:11:28 @Apart from such external things, there is the daily pressure on me of concern for all the churches.

nasb@2Corinthians:11:32 @In Damascus the ethnarch under Aretas the king was guarding the city of the Damascenes in order to seize me,

nasb@2Corinthians:12:6 @For if I do wish to boast I will not be foolish, for I will be speaking the truth; but I refrain from this, so that no one will credit me with more than he sees in me or hears from me.

nasb@2Corinthians:12:7 @Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me--to keep me from exalting myself!

nasb@2Corinthians:12:8 @Concerning this I implored the Lord three times that it might leave me.

nasb@2Corinthians:12:9 @And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.

nasb@2Corinthians:12:11 @I have become foolish; you yourselves compelled me. Actually I should have been commended by you, for in no respect was I inferior to the most eminent apostles, even though I am a nobody.

nasb@2Corinthians:12:12 @The signs of a true apostle were performed among you with all perseverance, by signs and wonders and miracles.

nasb@2Corinthians:12:13 @For in what respect were you treated as inferior to the rest of the churches, except that I myself did not become a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong!

nasb@2Corinthians:12:14 @Here for this third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you; for I do not seek what is yours, but you; for children are not responsible to save up for their parents, but parents for their children.

nasb@2Corinthians:12:18 @I urged Titus to go, and I sent the brother with him. Titus did not take any advantage of you, did he? Did we not conduct ourselves in the same spirit and walk in the same steps?

nasb@2Corinthians:12:19 @All this time you have been thinking that we are defending ourselves to you. Actually, it is in the sight of God that we have been speaking in Christ; and all for your upbuilding, beloved.

nasb@2Corinthians:12:20 @For I am afraid that perhaps when I come I may find you to be not what I wish and may be found by you to be not what you wish; that perhaps there will be strife, jealousy, angry tempers, disputes, slanders, gossip, arrogance, disturbances;

nasb@2Corinthians:12:21 @I am afraid that when I come again my God may humiliate me before you, and I may mourn over many of those who have sinned in the past and not repented of the impurity, immorality and sensuality which they have practiced.

nasb@2Corinthians:13:1 @This is the third time I am coming to you. EVERY FACT IS TO BE CONFIRMED BY THE TESTIMONY OF TWO OR THREE WITNESSES.

nasb@2Corinthians:13:2 @I have previously said when present the second time, and though now absent I say in advance to those who have sinned in the past and to all the rest as well, that if I come again I will not spare anyone,

nasb@2Corinthians:13:3 @since you are seeking for proof of the Christ who speaks in me, and who is not weak toward you, but mighty in you.

nasb@2Corinthians:13:10 @For this reason I am writing these things while absent, so that when present I need not use severity, in accordance with the authority which the Lord gave me for building up and not for tearing down.

nasb@Galatians:1:1 @Paul, an apostle ( not sent from men nor through the agency of man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead),

nasb@Galatians:1:2 @and all the brethren who are with me, To the churches of Galatia-

nasb@Galatians:1:5 @to whom be the glory forevermore. Amen.

nasb@Galatians:1:7 @which is really not another; only there are some who are disturbing you and want to distort the gospel of Christ.

nasb@Galatians:1:10 @For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ.

nasb@Galatians:1:11 @For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man.

nasb@Galatians:1:13 @For you have heard of my former manner of life in Judaism, how I used to persecute the church of God beyond measure and tried to destroy it;

nasb@Galatians:1:14 @and I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries among my countrymen, being more extremely zealous for my ancestral traditions.

nasb@Galatians:1:15 @But when God, who had set me apart even from my mother's womb and called me through His grace, was pleased

nasb@Galatians:1:16 @to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with flesh and blood,

nasb@Galatians:1:17 @nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went away to Arabia, and returned once more to Damascus.

nasb@Galatians:1:18 @Then three years later I went up to Jerusalem to become acquainted with Cephas, and stayed with him fifteen days.

nasb@Galatians:1:19 @But I did not see any other of the apostles except James, the Lord's brother.

nasb@Galatians:1:24 @And they were glorifying God because of me.

nasb@Galatians:2:3 @But not even Titus, who was with me, though he was a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised.

nasb@Galatians:2:6 @But from those who were of high reputation (what they were makes no difference to me; God shows no partiality)--well, those who were of reputation contributed nothing to me.

nasb@Galatians:2:8 @(for He who effectually worked for Peter in his apostleship to the circumcised effectually worked for me also to the Gentiles),

nasb@Galatians:2:9 @and recognizing the grace that had been given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, so that we might go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.

nasb@Galatians:2:10 @They only asked us to remember the poor-- the very thing I also was eager to do.

nasb@Galatians:2:11 @But when Cephas came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned.

nasb@Galatians:2:12 @For prior to the coming of certain men from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he began to withdraw and hold himself aloof, fearing the party of the circumcision.

nasb@Galatians:2:20" @I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.

nasb@Galatians:2:21" @I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly."

nasb@Galatians:3:13 @Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us--for it is written, " CURSED IS EVERYONE WHO HANGS ON A TREE"--

nasb@Galatians:3:14 @in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we would receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

nasb@Galatians:3:17 @What I am saying is this- the Law, which came four hundred and thirty years later, does not invalidate a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to nullify the promise.

nasb@Galatians:3:18 @For if the inheritance is based on law, it is no longer based on a promise; but God has granted it to Abraham by means of a promise.

nasb@Galatians:3:19 @Why the Law then? It was added because of transgressions, having been ordained through angels by the agency of a mediator, until the seed would come to whom the promise had been made.

nasb@Galatians:3:20 @Now a mediator is not for one party only; whereas God is only one.

nasb@Galatians:3:23 @But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, being shut up to the faith which was later to be revealed.

nasb@Galatians:3:24 @Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith.

nasb@Galatians:3:25 @But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

nasb@Galatians:4:3 @So also we, while we were children, were held in bondage under the elemental things of the world.

nasb@Galatians:4:4 @But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law,

nasb@Galatians:4:8 @However at that time, when you did not know God, you were slaves to those which by nature are no gods.

nasb@Galatians:4:9 @But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how is it that you turn back again to the weak and worthless elemental things, to which you desire to be enslaved all over again?

nasb@Galatians:4:12 @I beg of you, brethren, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You have done me no wrong;

nasb@Galatians:4:13 @but you know that it was because of a bodily illness that I preached the gospel to you the first time;

nasb@Galatians:4:14 @and that which was a trial to you in my bodily condition you did not despise or loathe, but you received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus Himself.

nasb@Galatians:4:15 @Where then is that sense of blessing you had? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.

nasb@Galatians:4:16 @So have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?

nasb@Galatians:4:17 @They eagerly seek you, not commendably, but they wish to shut you out so that you will seek them.

nasb@Galatians:4:18 @But it is good always to be eagerly sought in a commendable manner, and not only when I am present with you.

nasb@Galatians:4:19 @My children, with whom I am again in labor until Christ is formed in you--

nasb@Galatians:4:21 @Tell me, you who want to be under law, do you not listen to the law?

nasb@Galatians:4:24 @This is allegorically speaking, for these women are two covenants- one proceeding from Mount Sinai bearing children who are to be slaves; she is Hagar.

nasb@Galatians:4:27 @For it is written, " REJOICE, BARREN WOMAN WHO DOES NOT BEAR; FORTH AND SHOUT, YOU WHO ARE NOT IN LABOR; FOR MORE NUMEROUS ARE THE CHILDREN OF THE DESOLATE THAN OF THE ONE WHO HAS A HUSBAND."

nasb@Galatians:4:29 @But as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so it is now also.

nasb@Galatians:5:6 @For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but faith working through love.

nasb@Galatians:5:8 @This persuasion did not come from Him who calls you.

nasb@Galatians:5:10 @I have confidence in you in the Lord that you will adopt no other view; but the one who is disturbing you will bear his judgment, whoever he is.

nasb@Galatians:5:14 @For the whole Law is fulfilled in one word, in the statement, " YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."

nasb@Galatians:5:15 @But if you bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another.

nasb@Galatians:5:26 @Let us not become boastful, challenging one another, envying one another.

nasb@Galatians:6:3 @For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

nasb@Galatians:6:9 @Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.

nasb@Galatians:6:14 @But may it never be that I would boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

nasb@Galatians:6:16 @And those who will walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God.

nasb@Galatians:6:17 @From now on let no one cause trouble for me, for I bear on my body the brand-marks of Jesus.

nasb@Galatians:6:18 @The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.

nasb@Ephesians:1:4 @just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love

nasb@Ephesians:1:10 @with a view to an administration suitable to the fullness of the times, that is, the summing up of all things in Christ, things in the heavens and things on the earth. In Him

nasb@Ephesians:1:13 @In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation--having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise,

nasb@Ephesians:1:16 @do not cease giving thanks for you, while making mention of you in my prayers;

nasb@Ephesians:1:21 @far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.

nasb@Ephesians:2:2 @in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience.

nasb@Ephesians:2:3 @Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.

nasb@Ephesians:2:4 @But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,

nasb@Ephesians:2:7 @so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

nasb@Ephesians:2:11 @Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called " Uncircumcision" by the so-called " Circumcision," which is performed in the flesh by human hands--

nasb@Ephesians:2:12 @remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

nasb@Ephesians:2:13 @But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

nasb@Ephesians:2:15 @by abolishing in His flesh the enmity, which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances, so that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thus establishing peace,

nasb@Ephesians:2:17 @AND HE CAME AND PREACHED PEACE TO YOU WHO WERE FAR AWAY, AND PEACE TO THOSE WHO WERE NEAR;

nasb@Ephesians:3:2 @if indeed you have heard of the stewardship of God's grace which was given to me for you;

nasb@Ephesians:3:3 @that by revelation there was made known to me the mystery, as I wrote before in brief.

nasb@Ephesians:3:5 @which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed to His holy apostles and prophets in the Spirit;

nasb@Ephesians:3:6 @to be specific, that the Gentiles are fellow heirs and fellow members of the body, and fellow partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel,

nasb@Ephesians:3:7 @of which I was made a minister, according to the gift of God's grace which was given to me according to the working of His power.

nasb@Ephesians:3:8 @To me, the very least of all saints, this grace was given, to preach to the Gentiles the unfathomable riches of Christ,

nasb@Ephesians:3:15 @from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name,

nasb@Ephesians:3:21 @to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.

nasb@Ephesians:4:7 @But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ's gift.

nasb@Ephesians:4:8 @Therefore it says, " WHEN HE ASCENDED ON HIGH, HE LED CAPTIVE A HOST OF CAPTIVES, AND HE GAVE GIFTS TO MEN."

nasb@Ephesians:4:9 @(Now this expression, "He ascended," what does it mean except that He also had descended into the lower parts of the earth?

nasb@Ephesians:4:11 @And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers,

nasb@Ephesians:4:13 @until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ.

nasb@Ephesians:4:14 @As a result, we are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming;

nasb@Ephesians:4:19 @and they, having become callous, have given themselves over to sensuality for the practice of every kind of impurity with greediness.

nasb@Ephesians:4:22 @that, in reference to your former manner of life, you lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit,

nasb@Ephesians:4:25 @Therefore, laying aside falsehood, SPEAK TRUTH EACH ONE of you WITH HIS NEIGHBOR, for we are members of one another.

nasb@Ephesians:4:28 @He who steals must steal no longer; but rather he must labor, performing with his own hands what is good, so that he will have something to share with one who has need.

nasb@Ephesians:4:29 @Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear.

nasb@Ephesians:5:3 @But immorality or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints;

nasb@Ephesians:5:6 @Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

nasb@Ephesians:5:8 @for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light

nasb@Ephesians:5:13 @But all things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.

nasb@Ephesians:5:15 @Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise,

nasb@Ephesians:5:16 @making the most of your time, because the days are evil.

nasb@Ephesians:5:19 @speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord;

nasb@Ephesians:5:20 @always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;

nasb@Ephesians:5:27 @that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless.

nasb@Ephesians:5:30 @because we are members of His body.

nasb@Ephesians:5:31 @FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND SHALL BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH.

nasb@Ephesians:6:2 @HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER (which is the first commandment with a promise),

nasb@Ephesians:6:6 @not by way of eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart.

nasb@Ephesians:6:7 @With good will render service, as to the Lord, and not to men,

nasb@Ephesians:6:9 @And masters, do the same things to them, and give up threatening, knowing that both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no partiality with Him.

nasb@Ephesians:6:11 @Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.

nasb@Ephesians:6:17 @And take THE HELMET OF SALVATION, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

nasb@Ephesians:6:18 @With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints,

nasb@Ephesians:6:19 @and pray on my behalf, that utterance may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make known with boldness the mystery of the gospel,

nasb@Philippians:1:3 @I thank my God in all my remembrance of you,

nasb@Philippians:1:7 @For it is only right for me to feel this way about you all, because I have you in my heart, since both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers of grace with me.

nasb@Philippians:1:9 @And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in real knowledge and all discernment,

nasb@Philippians:1:10 @so that you may approve the things that are excellent, in order to be sincere and blameless until the day of Christ;

nasb@Philippians:1:11 @having been filled with the fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

nasb@Philippians:1:13 @so that my imprisonment in the cause of Christ has become well known throughout the whole praetorian guard and to everyone else,

nasb@Philippians:1:14 @and that most of the brethren, trusting in the Lord because of my imprisonment, have far more courage to speak the word of God without fear.

nasb@Philippians:1:15 @Some, to be sure, are preaching Christ even from envy and strife, but some also from good will;

nasb@Philippians:1:17 @the former proclaim Christ out of selfish ambition rather than from pure motives, thinking to cause me distress in my imprisonment.

nasb@Philippians:1:18 @What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and in this I rejoice. Yes, and I will rejoice,

nasb@Philippians:1:20 @according to my earnest expectation and hope, that I will not be put to shame in anything, but that with all boldness, Christ will even now, as always, be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death.

nasb@Philippians:1:21 @For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.

nasb@Philippians:1:22 @But if I am to live on in the flesh, this will mean fruitful labor for me; and I do not know which to choose.

nasb@Philippians:1:26 @so that your proud confidence in me may abound in Christ Jesus through my coming to you again.

nasb@Philippians:1:27 @Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or remain absent, I will hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

nasb@Philippians:1:28 @in no way alarmed by your opponents--which is a sign of destruction for them, but of salvation for you, and that too, from God.

nasb@Philippians:1:30 @experiencing the same conflict which you saw in me, and now hear to be in me.

nasb@Philippians:2:1 @Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if there is any consolation of love, if there is any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion,

nasb@Philippians:2:2 @make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose.

nasb@Philippians:2:4 @do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.

nasb@Philippians:2:7 @but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men.

nasb@Philippians:2:9 @For this reason also, God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name,

nasb@Philippians:2:10 @so that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

nasb@Philippians:2:15 @so that you will prove yourselves to be blameless and innocent, children of God above reproach in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as lights in the world,

nasb@Philippians:2:18 @You too, I urge you, rejoice in the same way and share your joy with me.

nasb@Philippians:2:22 @But you know of his proven worth, that he served with me in the furtherance of the gospel like a child serving his father.

nasb@Philippians:2:23 @Therefore I hope to send him immediately, as soon as I see how things go with me;

nasb@Philippians:2:25 @But I thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, who is also your messenger and minister to my need;

nasb@Philippians:2:27 @For indeed he was sick to the point of death, but God had mercy on him, and not on him only but also on me, so that I would not have sorrow upon sorrow.

nasb@Philippians:2:29 @Receive him then in the Lord with all joy, and hold men like him in high regard;

nasb@Philippians:2:30 @because he came close to death for the work of Christ, risking his life to complete what was deficient in your service to me.

nasb@Philippians:3:1 @Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things again is no trouble to me, and it is a safeguard for you.

nasb@Philippians:3:6 @as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to the righteousness which is in the Law, found blameless.

nasb@Philippians:3:7 @But whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ.

nasb@Philippians:3:9 @and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the Law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith,

nasb@Philippians:3:10 @that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death;

nasb@Philippians:3:12 @Not that I have already obtained it or have already become perfect, but I press on so that I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus.

nasb@Philippians:3:16 @however, let us keep living by that same standard to which we have attained.

nasb@Philippians:3:19 @whose end is destruction, whose god is their appetite, and whose glory is in their shame, who set their minds on earthly things.

nasb@Philippians:4:3 @Indeed, true companion, I ask you also to help these women who have shared my struggle in the cause of the gospel, together with Clement also and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.

nasb@Philippians:4:5 @Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near.

nasb@Philippians:4:9 @The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.

nasb@Philippians:4:10 @But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at last you have revived your concern for me; indeed, you were concerned before, but you lacked opportunity.

nasb@Philippians:4:12 @I know how to get along with humble means, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of having abundance and suffering need.

nasb@Philippians:4:13 @I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.

nasb@Philippians:4:14 @Nevertheless, you have done well to share with me in my affliction.

nasb@Philippians:4:15 @You yourselves also know, Philippians, that at the first preaching of the gospel, after I left Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you alone;

nasb@Philippians:4:20 @Now to our God and Father be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

nasb@Philippians:4:21 @Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren who are with me greet you.

nasb@Colossians:1:6 @which has come to you, just as in all the world also it is constantly bearing fruit and increasing, even as it has been doing in you also since the day you heard of it and understood the grace of God in truth;

nasb@Colossians:1:8 @and he also informed us of your love in the Spirit.

nasb@Colossians:1:18 @He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything.

nasb@Colossians:1:21 @And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds,

nasb@Colossians:1:22 @yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach--

nasb@Colossians:1:23 @if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, was made a minister.

nasb@Colossians:1:25 @Of this church I was made a minister according to the stewardship from God bestowed on me for your benefit, so that I might fully carry out the preaching of the word of God,

nasb@Colossians:1:29 @For this purpose also I labor, striving according to His power, which mightily works within me.

nasb@Colossians:2:2 @that their hearts may be encouraged, having been knit together in love, and attaining to all the wealth that comes from the full assurance of understanding, resulting in a true knowledge of God's mystery, that is, Christ Himself,

nasb@Colossians:2:4 @I say this so that no one will delude you with persuasive argument.

nasb@Colossians:2:8 @See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ.

nasb@Colossians:2:15 @When He had disarmed the rulers and authorities, He made a public display of them, having triumphed over them through Him.

nasb@Colossians:2:17 @things which are a mere shadow of what is to come; but the substance belongs to Christ.

nasb@Colossians:2:18 @Let no one keep defrauding you of your prize by delighting in self-abasement and the worship of the angels, taking his stand on visions he has seen, inflated without cause by his fleshly mind,

nasb@Colossians:2:19 @and not holding fast to the head, from whom the entire body, being supplied and held together by the joints and ligaments, grows with a growth which is from God.

nasb@Colossians:2:20 @If you have died with Christ to the elementary principles of the world, why, as if you were living in the world, do you submit yourself to decrees, such as,

nasb@Colossians:2:22 @(which all refer to things destined to perish with use)--in accordance with the commandments and teachings of men?

nasb@Colossians:2:23 @These are matters which have, to be sure, the appearance of wisdom in self-made religion and self-abasement and severe treatment of the body, but are of no value against fleshly indulgence.

nasb@Colossians:3:5 @Therefore consider the members of your earthly body as dead to immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed, which amounts to idolatry.

nasb@Colossians:3:6 @For it is because of these things that the wrath of God will come upon the sons of disobedience,

nasb@Colossians:3:17 @Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.

nasb@Colossians:3:22 @Slaves, in all things obey those who are your masters on earth, not with external service, as those who merely please men, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord.

nasb@Colossians:3:23 @Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men,

nasb@Colossians:4:3 @praying at the same time for us as well, that God will open up to us a door for the word, so that we may speak forth the mystery of Christ, for which I have also been imprisoned;

nasb@Colossians:4:10 @Aristarchus, my fellow prisoner, sends you his greetings; and also Barnabas's cousin Mark (about whom you received instructions; if he comes to you, welcome him);

nasb@Colossians:4:11 @and also Jesus who is called Justus; these are the only fellow workers for the kingdom of God who are from the circumcision, and they have proved to be an encouragement to me.

nasb@Colossians:4:18 @I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. Remember my imprisonment. Grace be with you.

nasb@1Thessalonians:1:2 @We give thanks to God always for all of you, making mention of you in our prayers;

nasb@1Thessalonians:1:5 @for our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction; just as you know what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake.

nasb@1Thessalonians:1:6 @You also became imitators of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much tribulation with the joy of the Holy Spirit,

nasb@1Thessalonians:1:7 @so that you became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia.

nasb@1Thessalonians:1:10 @and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, that is Jesus, who rescues us from the wrath to come.

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:3 @For our exhortation does not come from error or impurity or by way of deceit;

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:4 @but just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God who examines our hearts.

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:5 @For we never came with flattering speech, as you know, nor with a pretext for greed-- God is witness--

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:6 @nor did we seek glory from men, either from you or from others, even though as apostles of Christ we might have asserted our authority.

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:8 @Having so fond an affection for you, we were well-pleased to impart to you not only the gospel of God but also our own lives, because you had become very dear to us.

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:9 @For you recall, brethren, our labor and hardship, how working night and day so as not to be a burden to any of you, we proclaimed to you the gospel of God.

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:10 @You are witnesses, and so is God, how devoutly and uprightly and blamelessly we behaved toward you believers;

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:13 @For this reason we also constantly thank God that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but for what it really is, the word of God, which also performs its work in you who believe.

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:14 @For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus that are in Judea, for you also endured the same sufferings at the hands of your own countrymen, even as they did from the Jews,

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:15 @who both killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out. They are not pleasing to God, but hostile to all men,

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:16 @hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved; with the result that they always fill up the measure of their sins. But wrath has come upon them to the utmost.

nasb@1Thessalonians:2:18 @For we wanted to come to you--I, Paul, more than once--and yet Satan hindered us.

nasb@1Thessalonians:3:4 @For indeed when we were with you, we kept telling you in advance that we were going to suffer affliction; and so it came to pass, as you know.

nasb@1Thessalonians:3:6 @But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and has brought us good news of your faith and love, and that you always think kindly of us, longing to see us just as we also long to see you,

nasb@1Thessalonians:3:13 @so that He may establish your hearts without blame in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all His saints.

nasb@1Thessalonians:4:2 @For you know what commandments we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus.

nasb@1Thessalonians:4:13 @But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope.

nasb@1Thessalonians:4:17 @Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord.

nasb@1Thessalonians:5:1 @Now as to the times and the epochs, brethren, you have no need of anything to be written to you.

nasb@1Thessalonians:5:2 @For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night.

nasb@1Thessalonians:5:3 @While they are saying, " Peace and safety!" then destruction will come upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will not escape.

nasb@1Thessalonians:5:8 @But since we are of the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet, the hope of salvation.

nasb@1Thessalonians:5:23 @Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nasb@2Thessalonians:1:5 @This is a plain indication of God's righteous judgment so that you will be considered worthy of the kingdom of God, for which indeed you are suffering.

nasb@2Thessalonians:1:10 @when He comes to be glorified in His saints on that day, and to be marveled at among all who have believed--for our testimony to you was believed.

nasb@2Thessalonians:1:12 @so that the name of our Lord Jesus will be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

nasb@2Thessalonians:2:2 @that you not be quickly shaken from your composure or be disturbed either by a spirit or a message or a letter as if from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come.

nasb@2Thessalonians:2:3 @Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction,

nasb@2Thessalonians:2:5 @Do you not remember that while I was still with you, I was telling you these things?

nasb@2Thessalonians:2:6 @And you know what restrains him now, so that in his time he will be revealed.

nasb@2Thessalonians:3:2 @and that we will be rescued from perverse and evil men; for not all have faith.

nasb@2Thessalonians:3:6 @Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from every brother who leads an unruly life and not according to the tradition which you received from us.

nasb@2Thessalonians:3:11 @For we hear that some among you are leading an undisciplined life, doing no work at all, but acting like busybodies.

nasb@2Thessalonians:3:14 @If anyone does not obey our instruction in this letter, take special note of that person and do not associate with him, so that he will be put to shame.

nasb@1Timothy:1:1 @Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus according to the commandment of God our Savior, and of Christ Jesus, who is our hope,

nasb@1Timothy:1:2 @To Timothy, my true child in the faith- Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

nasb@1Timothy:1:3 @As I urged you upon my departure for Macedonia, remain on at Ephesus so that you may instruct certain men not to teach strange doctrines,

nasb@1Timothy:1:4 @nor to pay attention to myths and endless genealogies, which give rise to mere speculation rather than furthering the administration of God which is by faith.

nasb@1Timothy:1:6 @For some men, straying from these things, have turned aside to fruitless discussion,

nasb@1Timothy:1:10 @and immoral men and homosexuals and kidnappers and liars and perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound teaching,

nasb@1Timothy:1:12 @I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, putting me into service,

nasb@1Timothy:1:13 @even though I was formerly a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent aggressor. Yet I was shown mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief;

nasb@1Timothy:1:15 @It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost of all.

nasb@1Timothy:1:16 @Yet for this reason I found mercy, so that in me as the foremost, Jesus Christ might demonstrate His perfect patience as an example for those who would believe in Him for eternal life.

nasb@1Timothy:1:17 @Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.

nasb@1Timothy:1:19 @keeping faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and suffered shipwreck in regard to their faith.

nasb@1Timothy:1:20 @Among these are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have handed over to Satan, so that they will be taught not to blaspheme.

nasb@1Timothy:2:1 @First of all, then, I urge that entreaties and prayers, petitions and thanksgivings, be made on behalf of all men,

nasb@1Timothy:2:4 @who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

nasb@1Timothy:2:5 @For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

nasb@1Timothy:2:6 @who gave Himself as a ransom for all, the testimony given at the proper time.

nasb@1Timothy:2:8 @Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and dissension.

nasb@1Timothy:2:9 @Likewise, I want women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, modestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly garments,

nasb@1Timothy:2:10 @but rather by means of good works, as is proper for women making a claim to godliness.

nasb@1Timothy:2:15 @But women will be preserved through the bearing of children if they continue in faith and love and sanctity with self-restraint.

nasb@1Timothy:3:1 @It is a trustworthy statement- if any man aspires to the office of overseer, it is a fine work he desires to do.

nasb@1Timothy:3:6 @and not a new convert, so that he will not become conceited and fall into the condemnation incurred by the devil.

nasb@1Timothy:3:8 @Deacons likewise must be men of dignity, not double-tongued, or addicted to much wine or fond of sordid gain,

nasb@1Timothy:3:10 @These men must also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons if they are beyond reproach.

nasb@1Timothy:3:11 @Women must likewise be dignified, not malicious gossips, but temperate, faithful in all things.

nasb@1Timothy:3:14 @I am writing these things to you, hoping to come to you before long;

nasb@1Timothy:3:16 @By common confession, great is the mystery of godliness- He who was revealed in the flesh, Was vindicated in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Proclaimed among the nations, Believed on in the world, Taken up in glory.

nasb@1Timothy:4:1 @But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons,

nasb@1Timothy:4:2 @by means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron,

nasb@1Timothy:4:3 @men who forbid marriage and advocate abstaining from foods which God has created to be gratefully shared in by those who believe and know the truth.

nasb@1Timothy:4:5 @for it is sanctified by means of the word of God and prayer.

nasb@1Timothy:4:7 @But have nothing to do with worldly fables fit only for old women. On the other hand, discipline yourself for the purpose of godliness;

nasb@1Timothy:4:8 @for bodily discipline is only of little profit, but godliness is profitable for all things, since it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.

nasb@1Timothy:4:9 @It is a trustworthy statement deserving full acceptance.

nasb@1Timothy:4:10 @For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have fixed our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of believers.

nasb@1Timothy:4:13 @Until I come, give attention to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation and teaching.

nasb@1Timothy:5:1 @Do not sharply rebuke an older man, but rather appeal to him as a father, to the younger men as brothers,

nasb@1Timothy:5:2 @the older women as mothers, and the younger women as sisters, in all purity.

nasb@1Timothy:5:4 @but if any widow has children or grandchildren, they must first learn to practice piety in regard to their own family and to make some return to their parents; for this is acceptable in the sight of God.

nasb@1Timothy:5:13 @At the same time they also learn to be idle, as they go around from house to house; and not merely idle, but also gossips and busybodies, talking about things not proper to mention.

nasb@1Timothy:5:15 @for some have already turned aside to follow Satan.

nasb@1Timothy:5:23 @No longer drink water exclusively, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.

nasb@1Timothy:5:24 @The sins of some men are quite evident, going before them to judgment; for others, their sins follow after.

nasb@1Timothy:6:1 @All who are under the yoke as slaves are to regard their own masters as worthy of all honor so that the name of God and our doctrine will not be spoken against.

nasb@1Timothy:6:5 @and constant friction between men of depraved mind and deprived of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain.

nasb@1Timothy:6:6 @But godliness actually is a means of great gain when accompanied by contentment.

nasb@1Timothy:6:9 @But those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful desires which plunge men into ruin and destruction.

nasb@1Timothy:6:10 @For the love of money is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.

nasb@1Timothy:6:14 @that you keep the commandment without stain or reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nasb@1Timothy:6:15 @which He will bring about at the proper time--He who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords,

nasb@1Timothy:6:16 @who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen.

nasb@1Timothy:6:20 @O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you, avoiding worldly and empty chatter and the opposing arguments of what is falsely called "knowledge"--

nasb@1Timothy:6:21 @which some have professed and thus gone astray from the faith. Grace be with you.

nasb@2Timothy:1:2 @To Timothy, my beloved son- Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

nasb@2Timothy:1:3 @I thank God, whom I serve with a clear conscience the way my forefathers did, as I constantly remember you in my prayers night and day,

nasb@2Timothy:1:8 @Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord or of me His prisoner, but join with me in suffering for the gospel according to the power of God,

nasb@2Timothy:1:12 @For this reason I also suffer these things, but I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed and I am convinced that He is able to guard what I have entrusted to Him until that day.

nasb@2Timothy:1:13 @Retain the standard of sound words which you have heard from me, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.

nasb@2Timothy:1:15 @You are aware of the fact that all who are in Asia turned away from me, among whom are Phygelus and Hermogenes.

nasb@2Timothy:1:16 @The Lord grant mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chains;

nasb@2Timothy:1:17 @but when he was in Rome, he eagerly searched for me and found me--

nasb@2Timothy:1:18 @the Lord grant to him to find mercy from the Lord on that day--and you know very well what services he rendered at Ephesus.

nasb@2Timothy:2:2 @The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.

nasb@2Timothy:2:3 @Suffer hardship with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

nasb@2Timothy:2:6 @The hard-working farmer ought to be the first to receive his share of the crops.

nasb@2Timothy:2:8 @Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, descendant of David, according to my gospel,

nasb@2Timothy:2:9 @for which I suffer hardship even to imprisonment as a criminal; but the word of God is not imprisoned.

nasb@2Timothy:2:11 @It is a trustworthy statement- For if we died with Him, we will also live with Him;

nasb@2Timothy:2:15 @Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth.

nasb@2Timothy:2:17 @and their talk will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus,

nasb@2Timothy:2:18 @men who have gone astray from the truth saying that the resurrection has already taken place, and they upset the faith of some.

nasb@2Timothy:2:19 @Nevertheless, the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal, " The Lord knows those who are His," and, " Everyone who names the name of the Lord is to abstain from wickedness."

nasb@2Timothy:2:20 @Now in a large house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also vessels of wood and of earthenware, and some to honor and some to dishonor.

nasb@2Timothy:2:24 @The Lord's bond-servant must not be quarrelsome, but be kind to all, able to teach, patient when wronged,

nasb@2Timothy:2:26 @and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will.

nasb@2Timothy:3:1 @But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come.

nasb@2Timothy:3:2 @For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,

nasb@2Timothy:3:5 @holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these.

nasb@2Timothy:3:6 @For among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses,

nasb@2Timothy:3:7 @always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

nasb@2Timothy:3:8 @Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of depraved mind, rejected in regard to the faith.

nasb@2Timothy:3:11 @persecutions, and sufferings, such as happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium and at Lystra; what persecutions I endured, and out of them all the Lord rescued me!

nasb@2Timothy:3:13 @But evil men and impostors will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.

nasb@2Timothy:3:14 @You, however, continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned them,

nasb@2Timothy:4:3 @For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires,

nasb@2Timothy:4:6 @For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come.

nasb@2Timothy:4:8 @in the future there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day; and not only to me, but also to all who have loved His appearing.

nasb@2Timothy:4:9 @Make every effort to come to me soon;

nasb@2Timothy:4:10 @for Demas, having loved this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica; Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

nasb@2Timothy:4:11 @Only Luke is with me. Pick up Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for service.

nasb@2Timothy:4:13 @When you come bring the cloak which I left at Troas with Carpus, and the books, especially the parchments.

nasb@2Timothy:4:14 @Alexander the coppersmith did me much harm; the Lord will repay him according to his deeds.

nasb@2Timothy:4:16 @At my first defense no one supported me, but all deserted me; may it not be counted against them.

nasb@2Timothy:4:17 @But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, so that through me the proclamation might be fully accomplished, and that all the Gentiles might hear; and I was rescued out of the lion's mouth.

nasb@2Timothy:4:18 @The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed, and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom; to Him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

nasb@2Timothy:4:21 @Make every effort to come before winter. Eubulus greets you, also Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brethren.

nasb@Titus:1:3 @but at the proper time manifested, even His word, in the proclamation with which I was entrusted according to the commandment of God our Savior,

nasb@Titus:1:6 @namely, if any man is above reproach, the husband of one wife, having children who believe, not accused of dissipation or rebellion.

nasb@Titus:1:10 @For there are many rebellious men, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,

nasb@Titus:1:14 @not paying attention to Jewish myths and commandments of men who turn away from the truth.

nasb@Titus:2:2 @Older men are to be temperate, dignified, sensible, sound in faith, in love, in perseverance.

nasb@Titus:2:3 @Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good,

nasb@Titus:2:4 @so that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,

nasb@Titus:2:5 @to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, so that the word of God will not be dishonored.

nasb@Titus:2:6 @Likewise urge the young men to be sensible;

nasb@Titus:2:8 @sound in speech which is beyond reproach, so that the opponent will be put to shame, having nothing bad to say about us.

nasb@Titus:2:9 @Urge bondslaves to be subject to their own masters in everything, to be well-pleasing, not argumentative,

nasb@Titus:2:11 @For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men,

nasb@Titus:3:2 @to malign no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing every consideration for all men.

nasb@Titus:3:5 @He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit,

nasb@Titus:3:8 @This is a trustworthy statement; and concerning these things I want you to speak confidently, so that those who have believed God will be careful to engage in good deeds. These things are good and profitable for men.

nasb@Titus:3:12 @When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, make every effort to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.

nasb@Titus:3:14 @Our people must also learn to engage in good deeds to meet pressing needs, so that they will not be unfruitful.

nasb@Titus:3:15 @All who are with me greet you. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.

nasb@Philemon:1:4 @I thank my God always, making mention of you in my prayers,

nasb@Philemon:1:6 @and I pray that the fellowship of your faith may become effective through the knowledge of every good thing which is in you for Christ's sake.

nasb@Philemon:1:7 @For I have come to have much joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.

nasb@Philemon:1:10 @I appeal to you for my child Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my imprisonment,

nasb@Philemon:1:11 @who formerly was useless to you, but now is useful both to you and to me.

nasb@Philemon:1:13 @whom I wished to keep with me, so that on your behalf he might minister to me in my imprisonment for the gospel;

nasb@Philemon:1:16 @no longer as a slave, but more than a slave, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.

nasb@Philemon:1:17 @If then you regard me a partner, accept him as you would me.

nasb@Philemon:1:19 @I, Paul, am writing this with my own hand, I will repay it ( not to mention to you that you owe to me even your own self as well).

nasb@Philemon:1:20 @Yes, brother, let me benefit from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in Christ.

nasb@Philemon:1:22 @At the same time also prepare me a lodging, for I hope that through your prayers I will be given to you.

nasb@Hebrews:1:4 @having become as much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent name than they.

nasb@Hebrews:1:5 @For to which of the angels did He ever say, " YOU ARE MY SON, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU"? And again, " I WILL BE A FATHER TO HIM AND HE SHALL BE A SON TO ME"?

nasb@Hebrews:1:7 @And of the angels He says, " WHO MAKES HIS ANGELS WINDS, AND HIS MINISTERS A FLAME OF FIRE."

nasb@Hebrews:1:11 @THEY WILL PERISH, BUT YOU REMAIN; AND THEY ALL WILL BECOME OLD LIKE A GARMENT,

nasb@Hebrews:1:12 @AND LIKE A MANTLE YOU WILL ROLL THEM UP; LIKE A GARMENT THEY WILL ALSO BE CHANGED. BUT YOU ARE THE SAME, AND YOUR YEARS WILL NOT COME TO AN END."

nasb@Hebrews:2:3 @how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? After it was at the first spoken through the Lord, it was confirmed to us by those who heard,

nasb@Hebrews:2:5 @For He did not subject to angels the world to come, concerning which we are speaking.

nasb@Hebrews:2:6 @But one has testified somewhere, saying, " WHAT IS MAN, THAT YOU REMEMBER HIM? OR THE SON OF MAN, THAT YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT HIM?

nasb@Hebrews:2:9 @But we do see Him who was made for a little while lower than the angels, namely, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, so that by the grace of God He might taste death for everyone.

nasb@Hebrews:2:11 @For both He who sanctifies and those who are sanctified are all from one Father; for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren,

nasb@Hebrews:2:12 @saying, " I WILL PROCLAIM YOUR NAME TO MY BRETHREN, IN THE MIDST OF THE CONGREGATION I WILL SING YOUR PRAISE."

nasb@Hebrews:2:13 @And again, " I WILL PUT MY TRUST IN HIM." And again, " BEHOLD, I AND THE CHILDREN WHOM GOD HAS GIVEN ME."

nasb@Hebrews:2:14 @Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,

nasb@Hebrews:2:17 @Therefore, He had to be made like His brethren in all things, so that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.

nasb@Hebrews:2:18 @For since He Himself was tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are tempted.

nasb@Hebrews:3:4 @For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.

nasb@Hebrews:3:8 @DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS AS WHEN THEY PROVOKED ME, AS IN THE DAY OF TRIAL IN THE WILDERNESS,

nasb@Hebrews:3:9 @WHERE YOUR FATHERS TRIED Me BY TESTING Me, AND SAW MY WORKS FOR FORTY YEARS.

nasb@Hebrews:3:14 @For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast the beginning of our assurance firm until the end,

nasb@Hebrews:3:15 @while it is said, " TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE, DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS, AS WHEN THEY PROVOKED ME."

nasb@Hebrews:3:16 @For who provoked Him when they had heard? Indeed, did not all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?

nasb@Hebrews:4:1 @Therefore, let us fear if, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short of it.

nasb@Hebrews:4:4 @For He has said somewhere concerning the seventh day- " AND GOD RESTED ON THE SEVENTH DAY FROM ALL HIS WORKS";

nasb@Hebrews:4:6 @Therefore, since it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly had good news preached to them failed to enter because of disobedience,

nasb@Hebrews:4:7 @He again fixes a certain day, "Today," saying through David after so long a time just as has been said before, " TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE, DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS."

nasb@Hebrews:4:11 @Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest, so that no one will fall, through following the same example of disobedience.

nasb@Hebrews:4:16 @Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

nasb@Hebrews:5:1 @For every high priest taken from among men is appointed on behalf of men in things pertaining to God, in order to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins;

nasb@Hebrews:5:5 @So also Christ did not glorify Himself so as to become a high priest, but He who said to Him, " YOU ARE MY SON, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU";

nasb@Hebrews:5:6 @just as He says also in another passage, " YOU ARE A PRIEST FOREVER ACCORDING TO THE ORDER OF MELCHIZEDEK."

nasb@Hebrews:5:9 @And having been made perfect, He became to all those who obey Him the source of eternal salvation,

nasb@Hebrews:5:10 @being designated by God as a high priest according to the order of Melchizedek.

nasb@Hebrews:5:11 @Concerning him we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing.

nasb@Hebrews:5:12 @For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, and you have come to need milk and not solid food.

nasb@Hebrews:5:13 @For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant.

nasb@Hebrews:6:1 @Therefore leaving the elementary teaching about the Christ, let us press on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,

nasb@Hebrews:6:2 @of instruction about washings and laying on of hands, and the resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment.

nasb@Hebrews:6:5 @and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come,

nasb@Hebrews:6:6 @and then have fallen away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame.

nasb@Hebrews:6:10 @For God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the love which you have shown toward His name, in having ministered and in still ministering to the saints.

nasb@Hebrews:6:11 @And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence so as to realize the full assurance of hope until the end,

nasb@Hebrews:6:16 @For men swear by one greater than themselves, and with them an oath given as confirmation is an end of every dispute.

nasb@Hebrews:6:17 @In the same way God, desiring even more to show to the heirs of the promise the unchangeableness of His purpose, interposed with an oath,

nasb@Hebrews:6:18 @so that by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have taken refuge would have strong encouragement to take hold of the hope set before us.

nasb@Hebrews:6:20 @where Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us, having become a high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.

nasb@Hebrews:7:1 @For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, who met Abraham as he was returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him,

nasb@Hebrews:7:2 @to whom also Abraham apportioned a tenth part of all the spoils, was first of all, by the translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then also king of Salem, which is king of peace.

nasb@Hebrews:7:5 @And those indeed of the sons of Levi who receive the priest's office have commandment in the Law to collect a tenth from the people, that is, from their brethren, although these are descended from Abraham.

nasb@Hebrews:7:8 @In this case mortal men receive tithes, but in that case one receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives on.

nasb@Hebrews:7:10 @for he was still in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him.

nasb@Hebrews:7:11 @Now if perfection was through the Levitical priesthood (for on the basis of it the people received the Law), what further need was there for another priest to arise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be designated according to the order of Aaron?

nasb@Hebrews:7:15 @And this is clearer still, if another priest arises according to the likeness of Melchizedek,

nasb@Hebrews:7:16 @who has become such not on the basis of a law of physical requirement, but according to the power of an indestructible life.

nasb@Hebrews:7:17 @For it is attested of Him, " YOU ARE A PRIEST FOREVER ACCORDING TO THE ORDER OF MELCHIZEDEK."

nasb@Hebrews:7:18 @For, on the one hand, there is a setting aside of a former commandment because of its weakness and uselessness

nasb@Hebrews:7:21 @(for they indeed became priests without an oath, but He with an oath through the One who said to Him, " THE LORD HAS SWORN AND WILL NOT CHANGE HIS MIND, 'YOU ARE A PRIEST FOREVER'");

nasb@Hebrews:7:22 @so much the more also Jesus has become the guarantee of a better covenant.

nasb@Hebrews:7:23 @The former priests, on the one hand, existed in greater numbers because they were prevented by death from continuing,

nasb@Hebrews:7:28 @For the Law appoints men as high priests who are weak, but the word of the oath, which came after the Law, appoints a Son, made perfect forever.

nasb@Hebrews:8:3 @For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices; so it is necessary that this high priest also have something to offer.

nasb@Hebrews:8:6 @But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, by as much as He is also the mediator of a better covenant, which has been enacted on better promises.

nasb@Hebrews:8:11" @ AND THEY SHALL NOT TEACH EVERYONE HIS FELLOW CITIZEN, AND EVERYONE HIS BROTHER, SAYING, 'KNOW THE LORD,' FOR ALL WILL KNOW ME, FROM THE LEAST TO THE GREATEST OF THEM.

nasb@Hebrews:8:12" @ FOR I WILL BE MERCIFUL TO THEIR INIQUITIES, AND I WILL REMEMBER THEIR SINS NO MORE."

nasb@Hebrews:9:5 @and above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat; but of these things we cannot now speak in detail.

nasb@Hebrews:9:9 @which is a symbol for the present time. Accordingly both gifts and sacrifices are offered which cannot make the worshiper perfect in conscience,

nasb@Hebrews:9:10 @since they relate only to food and drink and various washings, regulations for the body imposed until a time of reformation.

nasb@Hebrews:9:11 @But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things to come, He entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation;

nasb@Hebrews:9:15 @For this reason He is the mediator of a new covenant, so that, since a death has taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were committed under the first covenant, those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

nasb@Hebrews:9:17 @For a covenant is valid only when men are dead, for it is never in force while the one who made it lives.

nasb@Hebrews:9:19 @For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses to all the people according to the Law, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,

nasb@Hebrews:9:21 @And in the same way he sprinkled both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry with the blood.

nasb@Hebrews:9:24 @For Christ did not enter a holy place made with hands, a mere copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;

nasb@Hebrews:9:27 @And inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment,

nasb@Hebrews:9:28 @so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time for salvation without reference to sin, to those who eagerly await Him.

nasb@Hebrews:10:1 @For the Law, since it has only a shadow of the good things to come and not the very form of things, can never, by the same sacrifices which they offer continually year by year, make perfect those who draw near.

nasb@Hebrews:10:5 @Therefore, when He comes into the world, He says, " SACRIFICE AND OFFERING YOU HAVE NOT DESIRED, BUT A BODY YOU HAVE PREPARED FOR ME;

nasb@Hebrews:10:9 @then He said, " BEHOLD, I HAVE COME TO DO YOUR WILL." He takes away the first in order to establish the second.

nasb@Hebrews:10:11 @Every priest stands daily ministering and offering time after time the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins;

nasb@Hebrews:10:12 @but He, having offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, SAT DOWN AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD,

nasb@Hebrews:10:13 @waiting from that time onward UNTIL HIS ENEMIES BE MADE A FOOTSTOOL FOR HIS FEET.

nasb@Hebrews:10:14 @For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are sanctified.

nasb@Hebrews:10:17" @ AND THEIR SINS AND THEIR LAWLESS DEEDS I WILL REMEMBER NO MORE."

nasb@Hebrews:10:25 @not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near.

nasb@Hebrews:10:27 @but a terrifying expectation of judgment and THE FURY OF A FIRE WHICH WILL CONSUME THE ADVERSARIES.

nasb@Hebrews:10:28 @Anyone who has set aside the Law of Moses dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.

nasb@Hebrews:10:29 @How much severer punishment do you think he will deserve who has trampled under foot the Son of God, and has regarded as unclean the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

nasb@Hebrews:10:32 @But remember the former days, when, after being enlightened, you endured a great conflict of sufferings,

nasb@Hebrews:10:37 @FOR YET IN A VERY LITTLE WHILE, HE WHO IS COMING WILL COME, AND WILL NOT DELAY.

nasb@Hebrews:11:2 @For by it the men of old gained approval.

nasb@Hebrews:11:6 @And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.

nasb@Hebrews:11:7 @By faith Noah, being warned by God about things not yet seen, in reverence prepared an ark for the salvation of his household, by which he condemned the world, and became an heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

nasb@Hebrews:11:9 @By faith he lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in a foreign land, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, fellow heirs of the same promise;

nasb@Hebrews:11:11 @By faith even Sarah herself received ability to conceive, even beyond the proper time of life, since she considered Him faithful who had promised.

nasb@Hebrews:11:12 @Therefore there was born even of one man, and him as good as dead at that, as many descendants AS THE STARS OF HEAVEN IN NUMBER, AND INNUMERABLE AS THE SAND WHICH IS BY THE SEASHORE.

nasb@Hebrews:11:13 @All these died in faith, without receiving the promises, but having seen them and having welcomed them from a distance, and having confessed that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.

nasb@Hebrews:11:16 @But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for He has prepared a city for them.

nasb@Hebrews:11:20 @By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even regarding things to come.

nasb@Hebrews:11:22 @By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the exodus of the sons of Israel, and gave orders concerning his bones.

nasb@Hebrews:11:25 @choosing rather to endure ill-treatment with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin,

nasb@Hebrews:11:31 @By faith Rahab the harlot did not perish along with those who were disobedient, after she had welcomed the spies in peace.

nasb@Hebrews:11:32 @And what more shall I say? For time will fail me if I tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets,

nasb@Hebrews:11:33 @who by faith conquered kingdoms, performed acts of righteousness, obtained promises, shut the mouths of lions,

nasb@Hebrews:11:34 @quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, from weakness were made strong, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight.

nasb@Hebrews:11:35 @Women received back their dead by resurrection; and others were tortured, not accepting their release, so that they might obtain a better resurrection;

nasb@Hebrews:11:36 @and others experienced mockings and scourgings, yes, also chains and imprisonment.

nasb@Hebrews:11:38 @(men of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts and mountains and caves and holes in the ground.

nasb@Hebrews:11:40 @because God had provided something better for us, so that apart from us they would not be made perfect.

nasb@Hebrews:12:2 @fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

nasb@Hebrews:12:8 @But if you are without discipline, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.

nasb@Hebrews:12:10 @For they disciplined us for a short time as seemed best to them, but He disciplines us for our good, so that we may share His holiness.

nasb@Hebrews:12:11 @All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.

nasb@Hebrews:12:13 @and make straight paths for your feet, so that the limb which is lame may not be put out of joint, but rather be healed.

nasb@Hebrews:12:14 @Pursue peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no one will see the Lord.

nasb@Hebrews:12:15 @See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God; that no root of bitterness springing up causes trouble, and by it many be defiled;

nasb@Hebrews:12:16 @that there be no immoral or godless person like Esau, who sold his own birthright for a single meal.

nasb@Hebrews:12:18 @For you have not come to a mountain that can be touched and to a blazing fire, and to darkness and gloom and whirlwind,

nasb@Hebrews:12:22 @But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels,

nasb@Hebrews:12:24 @and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood, which speaks better than the blood of Abel.

nasb@Hebrews:13:2 @Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by this some have entertained angels without knowing it.

nasb@Hebrews:13:3 @Remember the prisoners, as though in prison with them, and those who are ill-treated, since you yourselves also are in the body.

nasb@Hebrews:13:6 @so that we confidently say, " THE LORD IS MY HELPER, I WILL NOT BE AFRAID. WHAT WILL MAN DO TO ME?"

nasb@Hebrews:13:7 @Remember those who led you, who spoke the word of God to you; and considering the result of their conduct, imitate their faith.

nasb@Hebrews:13:8 @Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

nasb@Hebrews:13:14 @For here we do not have a lasting city, but we are seeking the city which is to come.

nasb@Hebrews:13:15 @Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name.

nasb@Hebrews:13:21 @equip you in every good thing to do His will, working in us that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

nasb@Hebrews:13:23 @Take notice that our brother Timothy has been released, with whom, if he comes soon, I will see you.

nasb@James:1:1 @James, a bond-servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes who are dispersed abroad- Greetings.

nasb@James:1:2 @Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials,

nasb@James:1:3 @knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.

nasb@James:1:4 @And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

nasb@James:1:5 @But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

nasb@James:1:6 @But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind.

nasb@James:1:7 @For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord,

nasb@James:1:8 @being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

nasb@James:1:9 @But the brother of humble circumstances is to glory in his high position;

nasb@James:1:10 @and the rich man is to glory in his humiliation, because like flowering grass he will pass away.

nasb@James:1:11 @For the sun rises with a scorching wind and withers the grass; and its flower falls off and the beauty of its appearance is destroyed; so too the rich man in the midst of his pursuits will fade away.

nasb@James:1:12 @Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

nasb@James:1:13 @Let no one say when he is tempted, " I am being tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone.

nasb@James:1:14 @But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust.

nasb@James:1:15 @Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death.

nasb@James:1:16 @Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.

nasb@James:1:17 @Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.

nasb@James:1:18 @In the exercise of His will He brought us forth by the word of truth, so that we would be a kind of first fruits among His creatures.

nasb@James:1:19 @This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger;

nasb@James:1:20 @for the anger of man does not achieve the righteousness of God.

nasb@James:1:21 @Therefore, putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the word implanted, which is able to save your souls.

nasb@James:1:22 @But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves.

nasb@James:1:23 @For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror;

nasb@James:1:24 @for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was.

nasb@James:1:25 @But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man will be blessed in what he does.

nasb@James:1:26 @If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man's religion is worthless.

nasb@James:1:27 @Pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father is this- to visit orphans and widows in their distress, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

nasb@James:2:1 @My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism.

nasb@James:2:2 @For if a man comes into your assembly with a gold ring and dressed in fine clothes, and there also comes in a poor man in dirty clothes,

nasb@James:2:3 @and you pay special attention to the one who is wearing the fine clothes, and say, "You sit here in a good place," and you say to the poor man, "You stand over there, or sit down by my footstool,"

nasb@James:2:4 @have you not made distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil motives?

nasb@James:2:5 @Listen, my beloved brethren- did not God choose the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?

nasb@James:2:6 @But you have dishonored the poor man. Is it not the rich who oppress you and personally drag you into court?

nasb@James:2:7 @Do they not blaspheme the fair name by which you have been called?

nasb@James:2:8 @If, however, you are fulfilling the royal law according to the Scripture, " YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF," you are doing well.

nasb@James:2:9 @But if you show partiality, you are committing sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

nasb@James:2:10 @For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.

nasb@James:2:11 @For He who said, " DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY," also said, " DO NOT COMMIT MURDER." Now if you do not commit adultery, but do commit murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

nasb@James:2:12 @So speak and so act as those who are to be judged by the law of liberty.

nasb@James:2:13 @For judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy; mercy triumphs over judgment.

nasb@James:2:14 @What use is it, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but he has no works? Can that faith save him?

nasb@James:2:15 @If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food,

nasb@James:2:16 @and one of you says to them, " Go in peace, be warmed and be filled," and yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that?

nasb@James:2:17 @Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself.

nasb@James:2:18 @But someone may well say, "You have faith and I have works; show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works."

nasb@James:2:19 @You believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and shudder.

nasb@James:2:20 @But are you willing to recognize, you foolish fellow, that faith without works is useless?

nasb@James:2:21 @Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?

nasb@James:2:22 @You see that faith was working with his works, and as a result of the works, faith was perfected;

nasb@James:2:23 @and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, " AND ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD, AND IT WAS RECKONED TO HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS," and he was called the friend of God.

nasb@James:2:24 @You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.

nasb@James:2:25 @In the same way, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way?

nasb@James:2:26 @For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.

nasb@James:3:1 @Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, knowing that as such we will incur a stricter judgment.

nasb@James:3:2 @For we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body as well.

nasb@James:3:3 @Now if we put the bits into the horses' mouths so that they will obey us, we direct their entire body as well.

nasb@James:3:4 @Look at the ships also, though they are so great and are driven by strong winds, are still directed by a very small rudder wherever the inclination of the pilot desires.

nasb@James:3:5 @So also the tongue is a small part of the body, and yet it boasts of great things. See how great a forest is set aflame by such a small fire!

nasb@James:3:6 @And the tongue is a fire, the very world of iniquity; the tongue is set among our members as that which defiles the entire body, and sets on fire the course of our life, and is set on fire by hell.

nasb@James:3:7 @For every species of beasts and birds, of reptiles and creatures of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by the human race.

nasb@James:3:8 @But no one can tame the tongue; it is a restless evil and full of deadly poison.

nasb@James:3:9 @With it we bless our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the likeness of God;

nasb@James:3:10 @from the same mouth come both blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be this way.

nasb@James:3:11 @Does a fountain send out from the same opening both fresh and bitter water?

nasb@James:3:12 @Can a fig tree, my brethren, produce olives, or a vine produce figs? Nor can salt water produce fresh.

nasb@James:3:13 @Who among you is wise and understanding? Let him show by his good behavior his deeds in the gentleness of wisdom.

nasb@James:3:14 @But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, do not be arrogant and so lie against the truth.

nasb@James:3:15 @This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, natural, demonic.

nasb@James:3:16 @For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every evil thing.

nasb@James:3:17 @But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without hypocrisy.

nasb@James:3:18 @And the seed whose fruit is righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

nasb@James:4:1 @What is the source of quarrels and conflicts among you? Is not the source your pleasures that wage war in your members?

nasb@James:4:2 @You lust and do not have; so you commit murder. You are envious and cannot obtain; so you fight and quarrel. You do not have because you do not ask.

nasb@James:4:3 @You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it on your pleasures.

nasb@James:4:4 @You adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

nasb@James:4:5 @Or do you think that the Scripture speaks to no purpose- " He jealously desires the Spirit which He has made to dwell in us"?

nasb@James:4:6 @But He gives a greater grace. Therefore it says, " GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE."

nasb@James:4:7 @Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

nasb@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-minded.

nasb@James:4:9 @Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom.

nasb@James:4:10 @Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.

nasb@James:4:11 @Do not speak against one another, brethren. He who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks against the law and judges the law; but if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge of it.

nasb@James:4:12 @There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the One who is able to save and to destroy; but who are you who judge your neighbor?

nasb@James:4:13 @Come now, you who say, " Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit."

nasb@James:4:14 @Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.

nasb@James:4:15 @Instead, you ought to say, " If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that."

nasb@James:4:16 @But as it is, you boast in your arrogance; all such boasting is evil.

nasb@James:4:17 @Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin.

nasb@James:5:1 @Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries which are coming upon you.

nasb@James:5:2 @Your riches have rotted and your garments have become moth-eaten.

nasb@James:5:3 @Your gold and your silver have rusted; and their rust will be a witness against you and will consume your flesh like fire. It is in the last days that you have stored up your treasure!

nasb@James:5:4 @Behold, the pay of the laborers who mowed your fields, and which has been withheld by you, cries out against you; and the outcry of those who did the harvesting has reached the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.

nasb@James:5:5 @You have lived luxuriously on the earth and led a life of wanton pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.

nasb@James:5:6 @You have condemned and put to death the righteous man; he does not resist you.

nasb@James:5:7 @Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. The farmer waits for the precious produce of the soil, being patient about it, until it gets the early and late rains.

nasb@James:5:8 @You too be patient; strengthen your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is near.

nasb@James:5:9 @Do not complain, brethren, against one another, so that you yourselves may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing right at the door.

nasb@James:5:10 @As an example, brethren, of suffering and patience, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.

nasb@James:5:11 @We count those blessed who endured. You have heard of the endurance of Job and have seen the outcome of the Lord's dealings, that the Lord is full of compassion and is merciful.

nasb@James:5:12 @But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath; but your yes is to be yes, and your no, no, so that you may not fall under judgment.

nasb@James:5:13 @Is anyone among you suffering? Then he must pray. Is anyone cheerful? He is to sing praises.

nasb@James:5:14 @Is anyone among you sick? Then he must call for the elders of the church and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;

nasb@James:5:15 @and the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him.

nasb@James:5:16 @Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.

nasb@James:5:17 @Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months.

nasb@James:5:18 @Then he prayed again, and the sky poured rain and the earth produced its fruit.

nasb@James:5:19 @My brethren, if any among you strays from the truth and one turns him back,

nasb@James:5:20 @let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.

nasb@1Peter:1:2 @according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, by the sanctifying work of the Spirit, to obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with His blood- May grace and peace be yours in the fullest measure.

nasb@1Peter:1:3 @Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

nasb@1Peter:1:5 @who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

nasb@1Peter:1:9 @obtaining as the outcome of your faith the salvation of your souls.

nasb@1Peter:1:10 @As to this salvation, the prophets who prophesied of the grace that would come to you made careful searches and inquiries,

nasb@1Peter:1:11 @seeking to know what person or time the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating as He predicted the sufferings of Christ and the glories to follow.

nasb@1Peter:1:14 @As obedient children, do not be conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your ignorance,

nasb@1Peter:1:17 @If you address as Father the One who impartially judges according to each one's work, conduct yourselves in fear during the time of your stay on earth;

nasb@1Peter:1:18 @knowing that you were not redeemed with perishable things like silver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your forefathers,

nasb@1Peter:1:20 @For He was foreknown before the foundation of the world, but has appeared in these last times for the sake of you

nasb@1Peter:2:4 @And coming to Him as to a living stone which has been rejected by men, but is choice and precious in the sight of God,

nasb@1Peter:2:7 @This precious value, then, is for you who believe; but for those who disbelieve, " THE STONE WHICH THE BUILDERS REJECTED, THIS BECAME THE VERY CORNER stone,"

nasb@1Peter:2:10 @for you once were NOT A PEOPLE, but now you are THE PEOPLE OF GOD; you had NOT RECEIVED MERCY, but now you have RECEIVED MERCY.

nasb@1Peter:2:14 @or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers and the praise of those who do right.

nasb@1Peter:2:15 @For such is the will of God that by doing right you may silence the ignorance of foolish men.

nasb@1Peter:2:16 @Act as free men, and do not use your freedom as a covering for evil, but use it as bondslaves of God.

nasb@1Peter:3:1 @In the same way, you wives, be submissive to your own husbands so that even if any of them are disobedient to the word, they may be won without a word by the behavior of their wives,

nasb@1Peter:3:3 @Your adornment must not be merely external--braiding the hair, and wearing gold jewelry, or putting on dresses;

nasb@1Peter:3:5 @For in this way in former times the holy women also, who hoped in God, used to adorn themselves, being submissive to their own husbands;

nasb@1Peter:3:6 @just as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, and you have become her children if you do what is right without being frightened by any fear.

nasb@1Peter:3:7 @You husbands in the same way, live with your wives in an understanding way, as with someone weaker, since she is a woman; and show her honor as a fellow heir of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered.

nasb@1Peter:3:16 @and keep a good conscience so that in the thing in which you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ will be put to shame.

nasb@1Peter:4:1 @Therefore, since Christ has suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same purpose, because he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

nasb@1Peter:4:2 @so as to live the rest of the time in the flesh no longer for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.

nasb@1Peter:4:3 @For the time already past is sufficient for you to have carried out the desire of the Gentiles, having pursued a course of sensuality, lusts, drunkenness, carousing, drinking parties and abominable idolatries.

nasb@1Peter:4:4 @In all this, they are surprised that you do not run with them into the same excesses of dissipation, and they malign you;

nasb@1Peter:4:6 @For the gospel has for this purpose been preached even to those who are dead, that though they are judged in the flesh as men, they may live in the spirit according to the will of God.

nasb@1Peter:4:7 @The end of all things is near; therefore, be of sound judgment and sober spirit for the purpose of prayer.

nasb@1Peter:4:11 @Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who is speaking the utterances of God; whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by the strength which God supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.

nasb@1Peter:4:12 @Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you, which comes upon you for your testing, as though some strange thing were happening to you;

nasb@1Peter:4:14 @If you are reviled for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you.

nasb@1Peter:4:15 @Make sure that none of you suffers as a murderer, or thief, or evildoer, or a troublesome meddler;

nasb@1Peter:4:16 @but if anyone suffers as a Christian, he is not to be ashamed, but is to glorify God in this name.

nasb@1Peter:4:17 @For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God?

nasb@1Peter:4:18 @AND IF IT IS WITH DIFFICULTY THAT THE RIGHTEOUS IS SAVED, WHAT WILL BECOME OF THE GODLESS MAN AND THE SINNER?

nasb@1Peter:5:5 @You younger men, likewise, be subject to your elders; and all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, for GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE.

nasb@1Peter:5:6 @Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time,

nasb@1Peter:5:8 @Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.

nasb@1Peter:5:9 @But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world.

nasb@1Peter:5:11 @To Him be dominion forever and ever. Amen.

nasb@2Peter:1:1 @Simon Peter, a bond-servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have received a faith of the same kind as ours, by the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ-

nasb@2Peter:1:4 @For by these He has granted to us His precious and magnificent promises, so that by them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world by lust.

nasb@2Peter:1:9 @For he who lacks these qualities is blind or short-sighted, having forgotten his purification from his former sins.

nasb@2Peter:1:14 @knowing that the laying aside of my earthly dwelling is imminent, as also our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me.

nasb@2Peter:1:15 @And I will also be diligent that at any time after my departure you will be able to call these things to mind.

nasb@2Peter:1:21 @for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.

nasb@2Peter:2:3 @and in their greed they will exploit you with false words; their judgment from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.

nasb@2Peter:2:4 @For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved for judgment;

nasb@2Peter:2:7 @and if He rescued righteous Lot, oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men

nasb@2Peter:2:8 @(for by what he saw and heard that righteous man, while living among them, felt his righteous soul tormented day after day by their lawless deeds),

nasb@2Peter:2:9 @then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment,

nasb@2Peter:2:11 @whereas angels who are greater in might and power do not bring a reviling judgment against them before the Lord.

nasb@2Peter:2:13 @suffering wrong as the wages of doing wrong. They count it a pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are stains and blemishes, reveling in their deceptions, as they carouse with you,

nasb@2Peter:2:19 @promising them freedom while they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by what a man is overcome, by this he is enslaved.

nasb@2Peter:2:20 @For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world by the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and are overcome, the last state has become worse for them than the first.

nasb@2Peter:2:21 @For it would be better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn away from the holy commandment handed on to them.

nasb@2Peter:3:2 @that you should remember the words spoken beforehand by the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior spoken by your apostles.

nasb@2Peter:3:3 @Know this first of all, that in the last days mockers will come with their mocking, following after their own lusts,

nasb@2Peter:3:5 @For when they maintain this, it escapes their notice that by the word of God the heavens existed long ago and the earth was formed out of water and by water,

nasb@2Peter:3:6 @through which the world at that time was destroyed, being flooded with water.

nasb@2Peter:3:7 @But by His word the present heavens and earth are being reserved for fire, kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

nasb@2Peter:3:9 @The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.

nasb@2Peter:3:10 @But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up.

nasb@2Peter:3:12 @looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be destroyed by burning, and the elements will melt with intense heat!

nasb@2Peter:3:14 @Therefore, beloved, since you look for these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, spotless and blameless,

nasb@2Peter:3:16 @as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction.

nasb@2Peter:3:17 @You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, be on your guard so that you are not carried away by the error of unprincipled men and fall from your own steadfastness,

nasb@2Peter:3:18 @but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

nasb@1John:1:5 @This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.

nasb@1John:2:3 @By this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His commandments.

nasb@1John:2:4 @The one who says, " I have come to know Him," and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him;

nasb@1John:2:6 @the one who says he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked.

nasb@1John:2:7 @Beloved, I am not writing a new commandment to you, but an old commandment which you have had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word which you have heard.

nasb@1John:2:8 @On the other hand, I am writing a new commandment to you, which is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true Light is already shining.

nasb@1John:2:12 @I am writing to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven you for His name's sake.

nasb@1John:2:13 @I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I have written to you, children, because you know the Father.

nasb@1John:2:14 @I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been 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 evil one.

nasb@1John:2:28 @Now, little children, abide in Him, so that when He appears, we may have confidence and not shrink away from Him in shame at His coming.

nasb@1John:3:11 @For this is the message which you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another;

nasb@1John:3:22 @and whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do the things that are pleasing in His sight.

nasb@1John:3:23 @This is His commandment, that we believe in the name of His Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as He commanded us.

nasb@1John:3:24 @The one who keeps His commandments abides in Him, and He in him. We know by this that He abides in us, by the Spirit whom He has given us.

nasb@1John:4:2 @By this you know the Spirit of God- every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God;

nasb@1John:4:4 @You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.

nasb@1John:4:12 @No one has seen God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us.

nasb@1John:4:16 @We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

nasb@1John:4:17 @By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world.

nasb@1John:4:18 @There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.

nasb@1John:4:20 @If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.

nasb@1John:4:21 @And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should love his brother also.

nasb@1John:5:2 @By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and observe His commandments.

nasb@1John:5:3 @For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments; and His commandments are not burdensome.

nasb@1John:5:4 @For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith.

nasb@1John:5:5 @Who is the one who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

nasb@1John:5:6 @This is the One who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood. It is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.

nasb@1John:5:8 @the Spirit and the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement.

nasb@1John:5:9 @If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for the testimony of God is this, that He has testified concerning His Son.

nasb@1John:5:13 @These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.

nasb@1John:5:20 @And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.

nasb@2John:1:3 @Grace, mercy and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

nasb@2John:1:4 @I was very glad to find some of your children walking in truth, just as we have received commandment to do from the Father.

nasb@2John:1:5 @Now I ask you, lady, not as though I were writing to you a new commandment, but the one which we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.

nasb@2John:1:6 @And this is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, just as you have heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.

nasb@2John:1:10 @If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house, and do not give him a greeting;

nasb@2John:1:12 @Though I have many things to write to you, I do not want to do so with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, so that your joy may be made full.

nasb@1John:1:3 @For I was very glad when brethren came and testified to your truth, that is, how you are walking in truth.

nasb@1John:1:7 @For they went out for the sake of the Name, accepting nothing from the Gentiles.

nasb@1John:1:8 @Therefore we ought to support such men, so that we may be fellow workers with the truth.

nasb@1John:1:9 @I wrote something to the church; but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, does not accept what we say.

nasb@1John:1:10 @For this reason, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words; and not satisfied with this, he himself does not receive the brethren, either, and he forbids those who desire to do so and puts them out of the church.

nasb@1John:1:12 @Demetrius has received a good testimony from everyone, and from the truth itself; and we add our testimony, and you know that our testimony is true.

nasb@1John:1:15 @Peace be to you. The friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.

nasb@Jude:1:1 @Jude, a bond-servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, To those who are the called, beloved in God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ-

nasb@Jude:1:2 @May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you.

nasb@Jude:1:6 @And angels who did not keep their own domain, but abandoned their proper abode, He has kept in eternal bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day,

nasb@Jude:1:7 @just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and went after strange flesh, are exhibited as an example in undergoing the punishment of eternal fire.

nasb@Jude:1:8 @Yet in the same way these men, also by dreaming, defile the flesh, and reject authority, and revile angelic majesties.

nasb@Jude:1:9 @But Michael the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a railing judgment, but said, " The Lord rebuke you!"

nasb@Jude:1:10 @But these men revile the things which they do not understand; and the things which they know by instinct, like unreasoning animals, by these things they are destroyed.

nasb@Jude:1:12 @These are the men who are hidden reefs in your love feasts when they feast with you without fear, caring for themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn trees without fruit, doubly dead, uprooted;

nasb@Jude:1:13 @wild waves of the sea, casting up their own shame like foam; wandering stars, for whom the black darkness has been reserved forever.

nasb@Jude:1:14 @It was also about these men that Enoch, in the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied, saying, " Behold, the Lord came with many thousands of His holy ones,

nasb@Jude:1:15 @to execute judgment upon all, and to convict all the ungodly of all their ungodly deeds which they have done in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him."

nasb@Jude:1:17 @But you, beloved, ought to remember the words that were spoken beforehand by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nasb@Jude:1:18 @that they were saying to you, " In the last time there will be mockers, following after their own ungodly lusts."

nasb@Jude:1:21 @keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting anxiously for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to eternal life.

nasb@Jude:1:22 @And have mercy on some, who are doubting;

nasb@Jude:1:23 @save others, snatching them out of the fire; and on some have mercy with fear, hating even the garment polluted by the flesh.

nasb@Jude:1:24 @Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy,

nasb@Jude:1:25 @to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.
