rsv@Matthew:1:4 @ and Ram the father of Ammin'adab, and Ammin'adab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon,

rsv@Matthew:1:6 @ and Jesse the father of David the king. And David was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uri'ah,

rsv@Matthew:1:18 @ Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit;

rsv@Matthew:1:19 @ and her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly.

rsv@Matthew:1:20 @ But as he considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit;

rsv@Matthew:1:21 @ she will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins."

rsv@Matthew:1:23 @ "Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emmanuel" (which means, God with us).

rsv@Matthew:2:1 @ Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying,

rsv@Matthew:2:2 @ "Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the East, and have come to worship him."

rsv@Matthew:2:3 @ When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him;

rsv@Matthew:2:4 @ and assembling all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born.

rsv@Matthew:2:5 @ They told him, "In Bethlehem of Judea; for so it is written by the prophet:

rsv@Matthew:2:6 @ `And you, O Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for from you shall come a ruler who will govern my people Israel.'"

rsv@Matthew:2:7 @ Then Herod summoned the wise men secretly and ascertained from them what time the star appeared;

rsv@Matthew:2:8 @ and he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, "Go and search diligently for the child, and when you have found him bring me word, that I too may come and worship him."

rsv@Matthew:2:9 @ When they had heard the king they went their way; and lo, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came to rest over the place where the child was.

rsv@Matthew:2:10 @ When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy;

rsv@Matthew:2:11 @ and going into the house they saw the child with Mary his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Then, opening their treasures, they offered him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh.

rsv@Matthew:2:12 @ And being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they departed to their own country by another way.

rsv@Matthew:2:13 @ Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, "Rise, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt, and remain there till I tell you; for Herod is about to search for the child, to destroy him."

rsv@Matthew:2:15 @ and remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfil what the Lord had spoken by the prophet, "Out of Egypt have I called my son."

rsv@Matthew:2:16 @ Then Herod, when he saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, was in a furious rage, and he sent and killed all the male children in Bethlehem and in all that region who were two years old or under, according to the time which he had ascertained from the wise men.

rsv@Matthew:2:18 @ "A voice was heard in Ramah, wailing and loud lamentation, Rachel weeping for her children; she refused to be consoled, because they were no more."

rsv@Matthew:2:19 @ But when Herod died, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying,

rsv@Matthew:2:22 @ But when he heard that Archelaus reigned over Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there, and being warned in a dream he withdrew to the district of Galilee.

rsv@Matthew:2:23 @ And he went and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that what was spoken by the prophets might be fulfilled, "He shall be called a Nazarene."

rsv@Matthew:3:1 @ In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judea,

rsv@Matthew:3:2 @ "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

rsv@Matthew:3:3 @ For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah when he said, "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight."

rsv@Matthew:3:6 @ and they were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.

rsv@Matthew:3:7 @ But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sad'ducees coming for baptism, he said to them, "You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

rsv@Matthew:3:10 @ Even now the axe is laid to the root of the trees; every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

rsv@Matthew:3:11 @ "I baptize you with water for repentance, but he who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry; he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

rsv@Matthew:3:12 @ His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor and gather his wheat into the granary, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire."

rsv@Matthew:3:14 @ John would have prevented him, saying, "I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?"

rsv@Matthew:3:15 @ But Jesus answered him, "Let it be so now; for thus it is fitting for us to fulfil all righteousness." Then he consented.

rsv@Matthew:3:16 @ And when Jesus was baptized, he went up immediately from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and alighting on him;

rsv@Matthew:3:17 @ and lo, a voice from heaven, saying, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased."

rsv@Matthew:4:1 @ Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.

rsv@Matthew:4:5 @ Then the devil took him to the holy city, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple,

rsv@Matthew:4:6 @ and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down; for it is written, `He will give his angels charge of you,' and `On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.'"

rsv@Matthew:4:7 @ Jesus said to him, "Again it is written, `You shall not tempt the Lord your God.'"

rsv@Matthew:4:8 @ Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them;

rsv@Matthew:4:11 @ Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and ministered to him.

rsv@Matthew:4:12 @ Now when he heard that John had been arrested, he withdrew into Galilee;

rsv@Matthew:4:13 @ and leaving Nazareth he went and dwelt in Caper'na-um by the sea, in the territory of Zeb'ulun and Naph'tali,

rsv@Matthew:4:16 @ the people who sat in darkness have seen a great light, and for those who sat in the region and shadow of death light has dawned."

rsv@Matthew:4:17 @ From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

rsv@Matthew:4:18 @ As he walked by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

rsv@Matthew:4:21 @ And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zeb'edee and John his brother, in the boat with Zeb'edee their father, mending their nets, and he called them.

rsv@Matthew:4:23 @ And he went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every infirmity among the people.

rsv@Matthew:4:24 @ So his fame spread throughout all Syria, and they brought him all the sick, those afflicted with various diseases and pains, demoniacs, epileptics, and paralytics, and he healed them.

rsv@Matthew:5:1 @ Seeing the crowds, he went up on the mountain, and when he sat down his disciples came to him.

rsv@Matthew:5:2 @ And he opened his mouth and taught them, saying:

rsv@Matthew:5:3 @ "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

rsv@Matthew:5:5 @ "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.

rsv@Matthew:5:7 @ "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.

rsv@Matthew:5:8 @ "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.

rsv@Matthew:5:10 @ "Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

rsv@Matthew:5:11 @ "Blessed are you when men revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account.

rsv@Matthew:5:12 @ Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so men persecuted the prophets who were before you.

rsv@Matthew:5:13 @ "You are the salt of the earth; but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trodden under foot by men.

rsv@Matthew:5:15 @ Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.

rsv@Matthew:5:16 @ Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

rsv@Matthew:5:17 @ "Think not that I have come to abolish the law and the prophets; I have come not to abolish them but to fulfil them.

rsv@Matthew:5:19 @ Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

rsv@Matthew:5:20 @ For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

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

rsv@Matthew:5:23 @ So if you are offering your gift at the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you,

rsv@Matthew:5:25 @ Make friends quickly with your accuser, while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison;

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

rsv@Matthew:5:29 @ If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and throw it away; it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell.

rsv@Matthew:5:30 @ And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away; it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body go into hell.

rsv@Matthew:5:33 @ "Again you have heard that it was said to the men of old, `You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.'

rsv@Matthew:5:35 @ or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.

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

rsv@Matthew:5:45 @ so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

rsv@Matthew:5:47 @ And if you salute only your brethren, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?

rsv@Matthew:6:1 @ "Beware of practicing your piety before men in order to be seen by them; for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.

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

rsv@Matthew:6:3 @ But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing,

rsv@Matthew:6:4 @ so that your alms may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

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

rsv@Matthew:6:6 @ But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

rsv@Matthew:6:7 @ "And in praying do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their many words.

rsv@Matthew:6:9 @ Pray then like this: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

rsv@Matthew:6:10 @ Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven.

rsv@Matthew:6:13 @ And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil.

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

rsv@Matthew:6:17 @ But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face,

rsv@Matthew:6:18 @ that your fasting may not be seen by men but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

rsv@Matthew:6:19 @ "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal,

rsv@Matthew:6:20 @ but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal.

rsv@Matthew:6:23 @ but if your eye is not sound, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!

rsv@Matthew:6:25 @ "Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink, nor about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?

rsv@Matthew:6:26 @ Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

rsv@Matthew:6:27 @ And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit to his span of life?

rsv@Matthew:6:28 @ And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin;

rsv@Matthew:6:29 @ yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

rsv@Matthew:6:30 @ But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O men of little faith?

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

rsv@Matthew:6:32 @ For the Gentiles seek all these things; and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.

rsv@Matthew:6:33 @ But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things shall be yours as well.

rsv@Matthew:7:3 @ Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?

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

rsv@Matthew:7:6 @ "Do not give dogs what is holy; and do not throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under foot and turn to attack you.

rsv@Matthew:7:7 @ "Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

rsv@Matthew:7:8 @ For every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.

rsv@Matthew:7:11 @ If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!

rsv@Matthew:7:14 @ For the gate is narrow and the way is hard, that leads to life, and those who find it are few.

rsv@Matthew:7:15 @ "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.

rsv@Matthew:7:19 @ Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

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

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

rsv@Matthew:7:24 @ "Every one then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house upon the rock;

rsv@Matthew:7:25 @ and the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.

rsv@Matthew:7:26 @ And every one who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house upon the sand;

rsv@Matthew:7:27 @ and the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell; and great was the fall of it."

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

rsv@Matthew:8:1 @ When he came down from the mountain, great crowds followed him;

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:8:5 @ As he entered Caper'na-um, a centurion came forward to him, beseeching him

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

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

rsv@Matthew:8:11 @ I tell you, many will come from east and west and sit at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven,

rsv@Matthew:8:12 @ while the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness; there men will weep and gnash their teeth."

rsv@Matthew:8:14 @ And when Jesus entered Peter's house, he saw his mother-in-law lying sick with a fever;

rsv@Matthew:8:16 @ That evening they brought to him many who were possessed with demons; and he cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick.

rsv@Matthew:8:17 @ This was to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah, "He took our infirmities and bore our diseases."

rsv@Matthew:8:23 @ And when he got into the boat, his disciples followed him.

rsv@Matthew:8:24 @ And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; but he was asleep.

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

rsv@Matthew:8:26 @ And he said to them, "Why are you afraid, O men of little faith?" Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

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

rsv@Matthew:8:28 @ And when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, two demoniacs met him, coming out of the tombs, so fierce that no one could pass that way.

rsv@Matthew:8:30 @ Now a herd of many swine was feeding at some distance from them.

rsv@Matthew:8:31 @ And the demons begged him, "If you cast us out, send us away into the herd of swine."

rsv@Matthew:8:32 @ And he said to them, "Go." So they came out and went into the swine; and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and perished in the waters.

rsv@Matthew:8:33 @ The herdsmen fled, and going into the city they told everything, and what had happened to the demoniacs.

rsv@Matthew:9:1 @ And getting into a boat he crossed over and came to his own city.

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

rsv@Matthew:9:3 @ And behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, "This man is blaspheming."

rsv@Matthew:9:4 @ But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, "Why do you think evil in your hearts?

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

rsv@Matthew:9:6 @ But that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins"--he then said to the paralytic--"Rise, take up your bed and go home."

rsv@Matthew:9:9 @ As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, "Follow me." And he rose and followed him.

rsv@Matthew:9:10 @ And as he sat at table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.

rsv@Matthew:9:11 @ And when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?"

rsv@Matthew:9:13 @ Go and learn what this means, `I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.' For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners."

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

rsv@Matthew:9:15 @ And Jesus said to them, "Can the wedding guests mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? The days will come, when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast.

rsv@Matthew:9:17 @ Neither is new wine put into old wineskins; if it is, the skins burst, and the wine is spilled, and the skins are destroyed; but new wine is put into fresh wineskins, and so both are preserved."

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

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

rsv@Matthew:9:22 @ Jesus turned, and seeing her he said, "Take heart, daughter; your faith has made you well." And instantly the woman was made well.

rsv@Matthew:9:23 @ And when Jesus came to the ruler's house, and saw the flute players, and the crowd making a tumult,

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

rsv@Matthew:9:25 @ But when the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took her by the hand, and the girl arose.

rsv@Matthew:9:27 @ And as Jesus passed on from there, two blind men followed him, crying aloud, "Have mercy on us, Son of David."

rsv@Matthew:9:28 @ When he entered the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They said to him, "Yes, Lord."

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

rsv@Matthew:9:32 @ As they were going away, behold, a dumb demoniac was brought to him.

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

rsv@Matthew:9:34 @ But the Pharisees said, "He casts out demons by the prince of demons."

rsv@Matthew:9:35 @ And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every infirmity.

rsv@Matthew:9:38 @ pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest."

rsv@Matthew:10:1 @ And he called to him his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every infirmity.

rsv@Matthew:10:5 @ These twelve Jesus sent out, charging them, "Go nowhere among the Gentiles, and enter no town of the Samaritans,

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

rsv@Matthew:10:8 @ Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, cast out demons. You received without paying, give without pay.

rsv@Matthew:10:9 @ Take no gold, nor silver, nor copper in your belts,

rsv@Matthew:10:11 @ And whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy in it, and stay with him until you depart.

rsv@Matthew:10:16 @ "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.

rsv@Matthew:10:17 @ Beware of men; for they will deliver you up to councils, and flog you in their synagogues,

rsv@Matthew:10:18 @ and you will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, to bear testimony before them and the Gentiles.

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

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

rsv@Matthew:10:21 @ Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death;

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

rsv@Matthew:10:26 @ "So have no fear of them; for nothing is covered that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.

rsv@Matthew:10:27 @ What I tell you in the dark, utter in the light; and what you hear whispered, proclaim upon the housetops.

rsv@Matthew:10:28 @ And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul; rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.

rsv@Matthew:10:32 @ So every one who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven;

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

rsv@Matthew:10:34 @ "Do not think that I have come to bring peace on earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.

rsv@Matthew:10:35 @ For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;

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

rsv@Matthew:11:1 @ And when Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he went on from there to teach and preach in their cities.

rsv@Matthew:11:2 @ Now when John heard in prison about the deeds of the Christ, he sent word by his disciples

rsv@Matthew:11:5 @ the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

rsv@Matthew:11:7 @ As they went away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to behold? A reed shaken by the wind?

rsv@Matthew:11:8 @ Why then did you go out? To see a man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, those who wear soft raiment are in kings' houses.

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

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

rsv@Matthew:11:14 @ and if you are willing to accept it, he is Eli'jah who is to come.

rsv@Matthew:11:16 @ "But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the market places and calling to their playmates,

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

rsv@Matthew:11:21 @ "Woe to you, Chora'zin! woe to you, Beth-sa'ida! for if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.

rsv@Matthew:11:27 @ All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

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

rsv@Matthew:12:1 @ At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the sabbath; his disciples were hungry, and they began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.

rsv@Matthew:12:2 @ But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, "Look, your disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on the sabbath."

rsv@Matthew:12:5 @ Or have you not read in the law how on the sabbath the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are guiltless?

rsv@Matthew:12:6 @ I tell you, something greater than the temple is here.

rsv@Matthew:12:11 @ He said to them, "What man of you, if he has one sheep and it falls into a pit on the sabbath, will not lay hold of it and lift it out?

rsv@Matthew:12:14 @ But the Pharisees went out and took counsel against him, how to destroy him.

rsv@Matthew:12:19 @ He will not wrangle or cry aloud, nor will any one hear his voice in the streets;

rsv@Matthew:12:20 @ he will not break a bruised reed or quench a smoldering wick, till he brings justice to victory;

rsv@Matthew:12:21 @ and in his name will the Gentiles hope."

rsv@Matthew:12:22 @ Then a blind and dumb demoniac was brought to him, and he healed him, so that the dumb man spoke and saw.

rsv@Matthew:12:24 @ But when the Pharisees heard it they said, "It is only by Be-el'zebul, the prince of demons, that this man casts out demons."

rsv@Matthew:12:25 @ Knowing their thoughts, he said to them, "Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and no city or house divided against itself will stand;

rsv@Matthew:12:26 @ and if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then will his kingdom stand?

rsv@Matthew:12:28 @ But if it is by the Spirit of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

rsv@Matthew:12:29 @ Or how can one enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? Then indeed he may plunder his house.

rsv@Matthew:12:30 @ He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.

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

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

rsv@Matthew:12:35 @ The good man out of his good treasure brings forth good, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings forth evil.

rsv@Matthew:12:40 @ For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, so will the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

rsv@Matthew:12:41 @ The men of Nin'eveh will arise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.

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

rsv@Matthew:12:43 @ "When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he passes through waterless places seeking rest, but he finds none.

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

rsv@Matthew:12:45 @ Then he goes and brings with him seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first. So shall it be also with this evil generation."

rsv@Matthew:12:46 @ While he was still speaking to the people, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, asking to speak to him.

rsv@Matthew:12:48 @ And stretching out his hand toward his disciples, he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers!

rsv@Matthew:12:49 @ For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother, and sister, and mother."

rsv@Matthew:13:2 @ And great crowds gathered about him, so that he got into a boat and sat there; and the whole crowd stood on the beach.

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

rsv@Matthew:13:5 @ Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they had not much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil,

rsv@Matthew:13:6 @ but when the sun rose they were scorched; and since they had no root they withered away.

rsv@Matthew:13:8 @ Other seeds fell on good soil and brought forth grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

rsv@Matthew:13:10 @ Then the disciples came and said to him, "Why do you speak to them in parables?"

rsv@Matthew:13:11 @ And he answered them, "To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.

rsv@Matthew:13:13 @ This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.

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

rsv@Matthew:13:15 @ For this people's heart has grown dull, and their ears are heavy of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should perceive with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn for me to heal them.'

rsv@Matthew:13:19 @ When any one hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what is sown in his heart; this is what was sown along the path.

rsv@Matthew:13:21 @ yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately he falls away.

rsv@Matthew:13:22 @ As for what was sown among thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the delight in riches choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.

rsv@Matthew:13:23 @ As for what was sown on good soil, this is he who hears the word and understands it; he indeed bears fruit, and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty."

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

rsv@Matthew:13:25 @ but while men were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away.

rsv@Matthew:13:26 @ So when the plants came up and bore grain, then the weeds appeared also.

rsv@Matthew:13:27 @ And the servants of the householder came and said to him, `Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then has it weeds?'

rsv@Matthew:13:29 @ But he said, `No; lest in gathering the weeds you root up the wheat along with them.

rsv@Matthew:13:30 @ Let both grow together until the harvest; and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, Gather the weeds first and bind them in bundles to be burned, but gather the wheat into my barn.'"

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

rsv@Matthew:13:32 @ it is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches."

rsv@Matthew:13:33 @ He told them another parable. "The kingdom of heaven is like leaven which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, till it was all leavened."

rsv@Matthew:13:34 @ All this Jesus said to the crowds in parables; indeed he said nothing to them without a parable.

rsv@Matthew:13:35 @ This was to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet: "I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world."

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

rsv@Matthew:13:38 @ the field is the world, and the good seed means the sons of the kingdom; the weeds are the sons of the evil one,

rsv@Matthew:13:41 @ The Son of man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all evildoers,

rsv@Matthew:13:42 @ and throw them into the furnace of fire; there men will weep and gnash their teeth.

rsv@Matthew:13:43 @ Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

rsv@Matthew:13:44 @ "The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.

rsv@Matthew:13:45 @ "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls,

rsv@Matthew:13:46 @ who, on finding one pearl of great value, went and sold all that he had and bought it.

rsv@Matthew:13:47 @ "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net which was thrown into the sea and gathered fish of every kind;

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

rsv@Matthew:13:53 @ And when Jesus had finished these parables, he went away from there,

rsv@Matthew:13:54 @ and coming to his own country he taught them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, "Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works?

rsv@Matthew:13:57 @ And they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own house."

rsv@Matthew:14:2 @ and he said to his servants, "This is John the Baptist, he has been raised from the dead; that is why these powers are at work in him."

rsv@Matthew:14:9 @ And the king was sorry; but because of his oaths and his guests he commanded it to be given;

rsv@Matthew:14:10 @ he sent and had John beheaded in the prison,

rsv@Matthew:14:13 @ Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a lonely place apart. But when the crowds heard it, they followed him on foot from the towns.

rsv@Matthew:14:15 @ When it was evening, the disciples came to him and said, "This is a lonely place, and the day is now over; send the crowds away to go into the villages and buy food for themselves."

rsv@Matthew:14:16 @ Jesus said, "They need not go away; you give them something to eat."

rsv@Matthew:14:18 @ And he said, "Bring them here to me."

rsv@Matthew:14:19 @ Then he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass; and taking the five loaves and the two fish he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and broke and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.

rsv@Matthew:14:22 @ Then he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds.

rsv@Matthew:14:23 @ And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone,

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

rsv@Matthew:14:25 @ And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea.

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

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

rsv@Matthew:14:30 @ but when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out, "Lord, save me."

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

rsv@Matthew:14:32 @ And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.

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

rsv@Matthew:14:36 @ and besought him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched it were made well.

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

rsv@Matthew:15:11 @ not what goes into the mouth defiles a man, but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man."

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

rsv@Matthew:15:14 @ Let them alone; they are blind guides. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit."

rsv@Matthew:15:15 @ But Peter said to him, "Explain the parable to us."

rsv@Matthew:15:16 @ And he said, "Are you also still without understanding?

rsv@Matthew:15:17 @ Do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the stomach, and so passes on?

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

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

rsv@Matthew:15:28 @ Then Jesus answered her, "O woman, great is your faith! Be it done for you as you desire." And her daughter was healed instantly.

rsv@Matthew:15:29 @ And Jesus went on from there and passed along the Sea of Galilee. And he went up on the mountain, and sat down there.

rsv@Matthew:15:30 @ And great crowds came to him, bringing with them the lame, the maimed, the blind, the dumb, and many others, and they put them at his feet, and he healed them,

rsv@Matthew:15:31 @ so that the throng wondered, when they saw the dumb speaking, the maimed whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel.

rsv@Matthew:15:32 @ Then Jesus called his disciples to him and said, "I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been with me now three days, and have nothing to eat; and I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way."

rsv@Matthew:15:33 @ And the disciples said to him, "Where are we to get bread enough in the desert to feed so great a crowd?"

rsv@Matthew:15:35 @ And commanding the crowd to sit down on the ground,

rsv@Matthew:15:36 @ he took the seven loaves and the fish, and having given thanks he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.

rsv@Matthew:15:39 @ And sending away the crowds, he got into the boat and went to the region of Mag'adan.

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

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

rsv@Matthew:16:5 @ When the disciples reached the other side, they had forgotten to bring any bread.

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

rsv@Matthew:16:12 @ Then they understood that he did not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sad'ducees.

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

rsv@Matthew:16:16 @ Simon Peter replied, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."

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

rsv@Matthew:16:18 @ And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the powers of death shall not prevail against it.

rsv@Matthew:16:21 @ 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 on the third day be raised.

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

rsv@Matthew:16:23 @ But he turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men."

rsv@Matthew:16:25 @ For whoever would save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

rsv@Matthew:16:26 @ For what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what shall a man give in return for his life?

rsv@Matthew:16:27 @ For the Son of man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay every man for what he has done.

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

rsv@Matthew:17:18 @ And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon came out of him, and the boy was cured instantly.

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

rsv@Matthew:17:26 @ However, not to give offense to them, go to the sea and cast 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 me and for yourself."

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

rsv@Matthew:27:5 @ And throwing down the pieces of silver in the temple, he departed; and he went and hanged himself.

rsv@Matthew:27:6 @ But the chief priests, taking the pieces of silver, said, "It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, since they are blood money."

rsv@Matthew:27:7 @ So they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

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

rsv@Matthew:27:11 @ Now Jesus stood before the governor; and the governor asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" Jesus said, "You have said so."

rsv@Matthew:27:13 @ Then Pilate said to him, "Do you not hear how many things they testify against you?"

rsv@Matthew:27:14 @ But he gave him no answer, not even to a single charge; so that the governor wondered greatly.

rsv@Matthew:27:19 @ Besides, while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent word to him, "Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered much over him today in a dream."

rsv@Matthew:27:21 @ The governor again said to them, "Which of the two do you want me to release for you?" And they said, "Barab'bas."

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

rsv@Matthew:27:26 @ Then he released for them Barab'bas, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him to be crucified.

rsv@Matthew:27:27 @ Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the praetorium, and they gathered the whole battalion before him.

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

rsv@Matthew:27:34 @ they offered him wine to drink, mingled with gall; but when he tasted it, he would not drink it.

rsv@Matthew:27:35 @ And when they had crucified him, they divided his garments among them by casting lots;

rsv@Matthew:27:37 @ And over his head they put the charge against him, which read, "This is Jesus the King of the Jews."

rsv@Matthew:27:39 @ And those who passed by derided him, wagging their heads

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

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

rsv@Matthew:27:42 @ "He saved others; he cannot save himself. He is the King of Israel; let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him.

rsv@Matthew:27:43 @ He trusts in God; let God deliver him now, if he desires him; for he said, `I am the Son of God.'"

rsv@Matthew:27:44 @ And the robbers who were crucified with him also reviled him in the same way.

rsv@Matthew:27:45 @ Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land until the ninth hour.

rsv@Matthew:27:46 @ And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, la'ma sabach-tha'ni?" that is, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"

rsv@Matthew:27:47 @ And some of the bystanders hearing it said, "This man is calling Eli'jah."

rsv@Matthew:27:48 @ And one of them at once ran and took a sponge, filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave it to him to drink.

rsv@Matthew:27:50 @ And Jesus cried again with a loud voice and yielded up his spirit.

rsv@Matthew:27:51 @ And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom; and the earth shook, and the rocks were split;

rsv@Matthew:27:52 @ the tombs also were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised,

rsv@Matthew:27:53 @ and coming out of the tombs after his resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many.

rsv@Matthew:27:54 @ When the centurion and those who were with him, keeping watch over Jesus, saw the earthquake and what took place, they were filled with awe, and said, "Truly this was the Son of God!"

rsv@Matthew:27:55 @ There were also many women there, looking on from afar, who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to him;

rsv@Matthew:27:57 @ When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathe'a, named Joseph, who also was a disciple of Jesus.

rsv@Matthew:27:59 @ And Joseph took the body, and wrapped it in a clean linen shroud,

rsv@Matthew:27:60 @ and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn in the rock; and he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, and departed.

rsv@Matthew:27:61 @ Mary Mag'dalene and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the sepulchre.

rsv@Matthew:27:63 @ and said, "Sir, we remember how that impostor said, while he was still alive, `After three days I will rise again.'

rsv@Matthew:27:66 @ So they went and made the sepulchre secure by sealing the stone and setting a guard.

rsv@Matthew:28:3 @ His appearance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow.

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

rsv@Matthew:28:11 @ While they were going, behold, some of the guard went into the city and told the chief priests all that had taken place.

rsv@Matthew:28:16 @ Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them.

rsv@Matthew:28:18 @ And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

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

rsv@Matthew:28:20 @ teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, to the close of the age."

rsv@Mark:1:1 @ The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

rsv@Mark:1:2 @ As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way;

rsv@Mark:1:3 @ the voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight--"

rsv@Mark:1:4 @ John the baptizer appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.

rsv@Mark:1:5 @ And there went out to him all the country of Judea, and all the people of Jerusalem; and they were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.

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

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

rsv@Mark:1:10 @ And when he came up out of the water, immediately he saw the heavens opened and the Spirit descending upon him like a dove;

rsv@Mark:1:12 @ The Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness.

rsv@Mark:1:13 @ And he was in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan; and he was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to him.

rsv@Mark:1:14 @ Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God,

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

rsv@Mark:1:16 @ And passing 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.

rsv@Mark:1:19 @ And going on a little farther, he saw James the son of Zeb'edee and John his brother, who were in their boat mending the nets.

rsv@Mark:1:20 @ And immediately he called them; and they left their father Zeb'edee in the boat with the hired servants, and followed him.

rsv@Mark:1:21 @ And they went into Caper'na-um; and immediately on the sabbath he entered the synagogue and taught.

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

rsv@Mark:1:23 @ And immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit;

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

rsv@Mark:1:26 @ And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.

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

rsv@Mark:1:28 @ And at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee.

rsv@Mark:1:30 @ Now Simon's mother-in-law lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him of her.

rsv@Mark:1:32 @ That evening, at sundown, they brought to him all who were sick or possessed with demons.

rsv@Mark:1:35 @ And in the morning, a great while before day, he rose and went out to a lonely place, and there he prayed.

rsv@Mark:1:37 @ and they found him and said to him, "Every one is searching for you."

rsv@Mark:1:39 @ And he went throughout all Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and casting out demons.

rsv@Mark:1:40 @ And a leper came to him beseeching him, and kneeling said to him, "If you will, you can make me clean."

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

rsv@Mark:1:45 @ But he went out and began to talk freely about it, and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was out in the country; and people came to him from every quarter.

rsv@Mark:2:2 @ And many were gathered together, so that there was no longer room for them, not even about the door; and he was preaching the word to them.

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

rsv@Mark:2:4 @ And when they could not get near him because of the crowd, they removed the roof above him; and when they had made an opening, they let down the pallet on which the paralytic lay.

rsv@Mark:2:5 @ And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "My son, your sins are forgiven."

rsv@Mark:2:6 @ Now some of the scribes were sitting there, questioning in their hearts,

rsv@Mark:2:7 @ "Why does this man speak thus? It is blasphemy! Who can forgive sins but God alone?"

rsv@Mark:2:8 @ And immediately Jesus, perceiving in his spirit that they thus questioned within themselves, said to them, "Why do you question thus in your hearts?

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

rsv@Mark:2:10 @ But that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins"--he said to the paralytic--

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

rsv@Mark:2:13 @ He went out again beside the sea; and all the crowd gathered about him, and he taught them.

rsv@Mark:2:14 @ And as he passed on, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax office, and he said to him, "Follow me." And he rose and followed him.

rsv@Mark:2:15 @ And as he sat at table in his house, many tax collectors and sinners were sitting with Jesus and his disciples; for there were many who followed him.

rsv@Mark:2:16 @ And the scribes of the Pharisees, when they saw that he was eating with sinners and tax collectors, said to his disciples, "Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?"

rsv@Mark:2:17 @ And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick; I came not to call the righteous, but sinners."

rsv@Mark:2:18 @ Now John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting; and people came and said to him, "Why do John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?"

rsv@Mark:2:19 @ And Jesus said to them, "Can the wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

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

rsv@Mark:2:22 @ And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; if he does, the wine will burst the skins, and the wine is lost, and so are the skins; but new wine is for fresh skins."

rsv@Mark:2:23 @ One sabbath he was going through the grainfields; and as they made their way his disciples began to pluck heads of grain.

rsv@Mark:2:24 @ And the Pharisees said to him, "Look, why are they doing what is not lawful on the sabbath?"

rsv@Mark:2:25 @ And he said to them, "Have you never read what David did, when he was in need and was hungry, he and those who were with him:

rsv@Mark:3:1 @ Again he entered the synagogue, and a man was there who had a withered hand.

rsv@Mark:3:6 @ The Pharisees went out, and immediately held counsel with the Hero'di-ans against him, how to destroy him.

rsv@Mark:3:8 @ and Jerusalem and Idume'a and from beyond the Jordan and from about Tyre and Sidon a great multitude, hearing all that he did, came to him.

rsv@Mark:3:13 @ And he went up on the mountain, and called to him those whom he desired; and they came to him.

rsv@Mark:3:14 @ And he appointed twelve, to be with him, and to be sent out to preach

rsv@Mark:3:20 @ and the crowd came together again, so that they could not even eat.

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

rsv@Mark:3:22 @ And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, "He is possessed by Be-el'zebul, and by the prince of demons he casts out the demons."

rsv@Mark:3:23 @ And he called them to him, and said to them in parables, "How can Satan cast out Satan?

rsv@Mark:3:24 @ If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

rsv@Mark:3:25 @ And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.

rsv@Mark:3:26 @ And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but is coming to an end.

rsv@Mark:3:27 @ But no one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man; then indeed he may plunder his house.

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

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

rsv@Mark:3:31 @ And his mother and his brothers came; and standing outside they sent to him and called him.

rsv@Mark:3:32 @ And a crowd was sitting about him; and they said to him, "Your mother and your brothers are outside, asking for you."

rsv@Mark:3:34 @ And looking around on those who sat about him, he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers!

rsv@Mark:4:1 @ Again he began to teach beside the sea. And a very large crowd gathered about him, so that he got into a boat and sat in it on the sea; and the whole crowd was beside the sea on the land.

rsv@Mark:4:2 @ And he taught them many things in parables, and in his teaching he said to them:

rsv@Mark:4:5 @ Other seed fell on rocky ground, where it had not much soil, and immediately it sprang up, since it had no depth of soil;

rsv@Mark:4:6 @ and when the sun rose it was scorched, and since it had no root it withered away.

rsv@Mark:4:7 @ Other seed fell among thorns and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no grain.

rsv@Mark:4:8 @ And other seeds fell into good soil and brought forth grain, growing up and increasing and yielding thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold."

rsv@Mark:4:10 @ And when he was alone, those who were about him with the twelve asked him concerning the parables.

rsv@Mark:4:11 @ And he said to them, "To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God, but for those outside everything is in parables;

rsv@Mark:4:12 @ so that they may indeed see but not perceive, and may indeed hear but not understand; lest they should turn again, and be forgiven."

rsv@Mark:4:15 @ And these are the ones along the path, where the word is sown; when they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away the word which is sown in them.

rsv@Mark:4:16 @ And these in like manner are the ones sown upon rocky ground, who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy;

rsv@Mark:4:17 @ and they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately they fall away.

rsv@Mark:4:19 @ but the cares of the world, and the delight in riches, and the desire for other things, enter in and choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.

rsv@Mark:4:21 @ And he said to them, "Is a lamp brought in to be put under a bushel, or under a bed, and not on a stand?

rsv@Mark:4:22 @ For there is nothing hid, except to be made manifest; nor is anything secret, except to come to light.

rsv@Mark:4:26 @ And he said, "The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed upon the ground,

rsv@Mark:4:28 @ The earth produces of itself, first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.

rsv@Mark:4:29 @ But when the grain is ripe, at once he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come."

rsv@Mark:4:30 @ And he said, "With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable shall we use for it?

rsv@Mark:4:31 @ It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth;

rsv@Mark:4:32 @ yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade."

rsv@Mark:4:34 @ he did not speak to them without a parable, but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.

rsv@Mark:4:35 @ On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, "Let us go across to the other side."

rsv@Mark:4:36 @ And leaving the crowd, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. And other boats were with him.

rsv@Mark:4:37 @ And a great storm of wind arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already filling.

rsv@Mark:4:38 @ But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him and said to him, "Teacher, do you not care if we perish?"

rsv@Mark:4:39 @ And he awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace! Be still!" And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

rsv@Mark:4:41 @ And they were filled with awe, and said to one another, "Who then is this, that even wind and sea obey him?"

rsv@Mark:5:3 @ who lived among the tombs; and no one could bind him any more, even with a chain;

rsv@Mark:5:4 @ for he had often been bound with fetters and chains, but the chains he wrenched apart, and the fetters he broke in pieces; and no one had the strength to subdue him.

rsv@Mark:5:5 @ Night and day among the tombs and on the mountains he was always crying out, and bruising himself with stones.

rsv@Mark:5:7 @ and crying out with a loud voice, he said, "What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, do not torment me."

rsv@Mark:5:11 @ Now a great herd of swine was feeding there on the hillside;

rsv@Mark:5:12 @ and they begged him, "Send us to the swine, let us enter them."

rsv@Mark:5:13 @ So he gave them leave. And the unclean spirits came out, and entered the swine; and the herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and were drowned in the sea.

rsv@Mark:5:14 @ The herdsmen fled, and told it in the city and in the country. And people came to see what it was that had happened.

rsv@Mark:5:15 @ And they came to Jesus, and saw the demoniac sitting there, clothed and in his right mind, the man who had had the legion; and they were afraid.

rsv@Mark:5:16 @ And those who had seen it told what had happened to the demoniac and to the swine.

rsv@Mark:5:18 @ And as he was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed with demons begged him that he might be with him.

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

rsv@Mark:5:21 @ And when Jesus had crossed again in the boat to the other side, a great crowd gathered about him; and he was beside the sea.

rsv@Mark:5:22 @ Then came one of the rulers of the synagogue, Ja'irus by name; and seeing him, he fell at his feet,

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

rsv@Mark:5:27 @ She had heard the reports about Jesus, and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his garment.

rsv@Mark:5:29 @ And immediately the hemorrhage ceased; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease.

rsv@Mark:5:30 @ And Jesus, perceiving in himself that power had gone forth from him, immediately turned about in the crowd, and said, "Who touched my garments?"

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

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

rsv@Mark:5:34 @ And he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease."

rsv@Mark:5:35 @ While he was still speaking, there came from the ruler's house some who said, "Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?"

rsv@Mark:5:36 @ But ignoring what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, "Do not fear, only believe."

rsv@Mark:5:38 @ When they came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, he saw a tumult, and people weeping and wailing loudly.

rsv@Mark:5:39 @ And when he had entered, he said to them, "Why do you make a tumult and weep? The child is not dead but sleeping."

rsv@Mark:5:40 @ And they laughed at him. But he put them all outside, and took the child's father and mother and those who were with him, and went in where the child was.

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

rsv@Mark:5:43 @ And he strictly charged them that no one should know this, and told them to give her something to eat.

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

rsv@Mark:6:4 @ And Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house."

rsv@Mark:6:6 @ And he marveled because of their unbelief. And he went about among the villages teaching.

rsv@Mark:6:8 @ He charged them to take nothing for their journey except a staff; no bread, no bag, no money in their belts;

rsv@Mark:6:11 @ And if any place will not receive you and they refuse to hear you, when you leave, shake off the dust that is on your feet for a testimony against them."

rsv@Mark:6:13 @ And they cast out many demons, and anointed with oil many that were sick and healed them.

rsv@Mark:6:14 @ King Herod heard of it; for Jesus' name had become known. Some said, "John the baptizer has been raised from the dead; that is why these powers are at work in him."

rsv@Mark:6:17 @ For Herod had sent and seized John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Hero'di-as, his brother Philip's wife; because he had married her.

rsv@Mark:6:19 @ And Hero'di-as had a grudge against him, and wanted to kill him. But she could not,

rsv@Mark:6:20 @ for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and kept him safe. When he heard him, he was much perplexed; and yet he heard him gladly.

rsv@Mark:6:21 @ But an opportunity came when Herod on his birthday gave a banquet for his courtiers and officers and the leading men of Galilee.

rsv@Mark:6:22 @ For when Hero'di-as' daughter came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests; and the king said to the girl, "Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will grant it."

rsv@Mark:6:23 @ And he vowed to her, "Whatever you ask me, I will give you, even half of my kingdom."

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

rsv@Mark:6:26 @ And the king was exceedingly sorry; but because of his oaths and his guests he did not want to break his word to her.

rsv@Mark:6:27 @ And immediately the king sent a soldier of the guard and gave orders to bring his head. He went and beheaded him in the prison,

rsv@Mark:6:29 @ When his disciples heard of it, they came and took his body, and laid it in a tomb.

rsv@Mark:6:31 @ And he said to them, "Come away by yourselves to a lonely place, and rest a while." For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat.

rsv@Mark:6:32 @ And they went away in the boat to a lonely place by themselves.

rsv@Mark:6:33 @ Now many saw them going, and knew them, and they ran there on foot from all the towns, and got there ahead of them.

rsv@Mark:6:34 @ As he went ashore he saw a great throng, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.

rsv@Mark:6:36 @ send them away, to go into the country and villages round about and buy themselves something to eat."

rsv@Mark:6:37 @ But he answered them, "You give them something to eat." And they said to him, "Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread, and give it to them to eat?"

rsv@Mark:6:40 @ So they sat down in groups, by hundreds and by fifties.

rsv@Mark:6:41 @ And taking the five loaves and the two fish he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and broke the loaves, and gave them to the disciples to set before the people; and he divided the two fish among them all.

rsv@Mark:6:45 @ Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, to Beth-sa'ida, while he dismissed the crowd.

rsv@Mark:6:46 @ And after he had taken leave of them, he went up on the mountain to pray.

rsv@Mark:6:47 @ And when evening came, the boat was out on the sea, and he was alone on the land.

rsv@Mark:6:48 @ And he saw that they were making headway painfully, for the wind was against them. And about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea. He meant to pass by them,

rsv@Mark:6:49 @ but when they saw him walking on the sea they thought it was a ghost, and cried out;

rsv@Mark:6:51 @ And he got into the boat with them and the wind ceased. And they were utterly astounded,

rsv@Mark:6:55 @ and ran about the whole neighborhood and began to bring sick people on their pallets to any place where they heard he was.

rsv@Mark:6:56 @ And wherever he came, in villages, cities, or country, they laid the sick in the market places, and besought him that they might touch even the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched it were made well.

rsv@Mark:7:3 @ (For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, do not eat unless they wash their hands, observing the tradition of the elders;

rsv@Mark:7:4 @ and when they come from the market place, they do not eat unless they purify themselves; and there are many other traditions which they observe, the washing of cups and pots and vessels of bronze.)

rsv@Mark:7:5 @ And the Pharisees and the scribes asked him, "Why do your disciples not live according to the tradition of the elders, but eat with hands defiled?"

rsv@Mark:7:7 @ in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.'

rsv@Mark:7:9 @ And he said to them, "You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!

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

rsv@Mark:7:12 @ then you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or mother,

rsv@Mark:7:13 @ thus making void the word of God through your tradition which you hand on. And many such things you do."

rsv@Mark:7:14 @ And he called the people to him again, and said to them, "Hear me, all of you, and understand:

rsv@Mark:7:15 @ there is nothing outside a man which by going into him can defile him; but the things which come out of a man are what defile him."

rsv@Mark:7:17 @ And he said to them, "Then are you also without understanding? Do you not see that whatever goes into a man from outside cannot defile him,

rsv@Mark:7:18 @ since it enters, not his heart but his stomach, and so passes on?" (Thus he declared all foods clean.)

rsv@Mark:7:20 @ For from within, out of the heart of man, come evil thoughts, fornication, theft, murder, adultery,

rsv@Mark:7:21 @ coveting, wickedness, deceit, licentiousness, envy, slander, pride, foolishness.

rsv@Mark:7:22 @ All these evil things come from within, and they defile a man."

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

rsv@Mark:7:29 @ And she went home, and found the child lying in bed, and the demon gone.

rsv@Mark:7:31 @ And they brought to him a man who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech; and they besought him to lay his hand upon him.

rsv@Mark:7:32 @ And taking him aside from the multitude privately, he put his fingers into his ears, and he spat and touched his tongue;

rsv@Mark:7:33 @ and looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to him, "Eph'phatha," that is, "Be opened."

rsv@Mark:7:34 @ And his ears were opened, his tongue was released, and he spoke plainly.

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

rsv@Mark:8:1 @ In those days, when again a great crowd had gathered, and they had nothing to eat, he called his disciples to him, and said to them,

rsv@Mark:8:2 @ "I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been with me now three days, and have nothing to eat;

rsv@Mark:8:3 @ and if I send them away hungry to their homes, they will faint on the way; and some of them have come a long way."

rsv@Mark:8:4 @ And his disciples answered him, "How can one feed these men with bread here in the desert?"

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

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

rsv@Mark:8:10 @ And he sent them away; and immediately he got into the boat with his disciples, and went to the district of Dalmanu'tha.

rsv@Mark:8:11 @ The Pharisees came and began to argue with him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, to test him.

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

rsv@Mark:8:13 @ And he left them, and getting into the boat again he departed to the other side.

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:8:17 @ And being aware of it, Jesus said to them, "Why do you discuss the fact that you have no bread? Do you not yet perceive or understand? Are your hearts hardened?

rsv@Mark:8:18 @ Having eyes do you not see, and having ears do you not hear? And do you not remember?

rsv@Mark:8:22 @ And they came to Beth-sa'ida. And some people brought to him a blind man, and begged him to touch him.

rsv@Mark:8:23 @ And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the village; and when he had spit on his eyes and laid his hands upon him, he asked him, "Do you see anything?"

rsv@Mark:8:24 @ And he looked up and said, "I see men; but they look like trees, walking."

rsv@Mark:8:25 @ Then again he laid his hands upon his eyes; and he looked intently and was restored, and saw everything clearly.

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

rsv@Mark:8:31 @ And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

rsv@Mark:8:32 @ And he said this plainly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.

rsv@Mark:8:33 @ But turning and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter, and said, "Get behind me, Satan! For you are not on the side of God, but of men."

rsv@Mark:8:36 @ For what does it profit a man, to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?

rsv@Mark:8:37 @ For what can a man give in return for his life?

rsv@Mark:8:38 @ For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of man also be ashamed, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels."

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

rsv@Mark:9:2 @ And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John, and led them up a high mountain apart by themselves; and he was transfigured before them,

rsv@Mark:9:3 @ and his garments became glistening, intensely white, as no fuller on earth could bleach them.

rsv@Mark:9:4 @ And there appeared to them Eli'jah with Moses; and they were talking to Jesus.

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

rsv@Mark:9:8 @ And suddenly looking around they no longer saw any one with them but Jesus only.

rsv@Mark:9:9 @ And as they were coming down the mountain, he charged them to tell no one what they had seen, until the Son of man should have risen from the dead.

rsv@Mark:9:10 @ So they kept the matter to themselves, questioning what the rising from the dead meant.

rsv@Mark:9:12 @ And he said to them, "Eli'jah does come first to restore all things; and how is it written of the Son of man, that he should suffer many things and be treated with contempt?

rsv@Mark:9:14 @ And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd about them, and scribes arguing with them.

rsv@Mark:9:16 @ And he asked them, "What are you discussing with them?"

rsv@Mark:9:18 @ and wherever it seizes him, it dashes him down; and he foams and grinds his teeth and becomes rigid; and I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they were not able."

rsv@Mark:9:19 @ And he answered them, "O faithless generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him to me."

rsv@Mark:9:20 @ And they brought the boy to him; and when the spirit saw him, immediately it convulsed the boy, and he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.

rsv@Mark:9:22 @ And it has often cast him into the fire and into the water, to destroy him; but if you can do anything, have pity on us and help us."

rsv@Mark:9:23 @ And Jesus said to him, "If you can! All things are possible to him who believes."

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

rsv@Mark:9:26 @ And after crying out and convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like a corpse; so that most of them said, "He is dead."

rsv@Mark:9:29 @ And he said to them, "This kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer."

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

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

rsv@Mark:9:33 @ And they came to Caper'na-um; and when he was in the house he asked them, "What were you discussing on the way?"

rsv@Mark:9:36 @ And he took a child, and put him in the midst of them; and taking him in his arms, he said to them,

rsv@Mark:9:37 @ "Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not me but him who sent me."

rsv@Mark:9:38 @ John said to him, "Teacher, we saw a man casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he was not following us."

rsv@Mark:9:39 @ But Jesus said, "Do not forbid him; for no one who does a mighty work in my name will be able soon after to speak evil of me.

rsv@Mark:9:40 @ For he that is not against us is for us.

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

rsv@Mark:9:42 @ "Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung round his neck and he were thrown into the sea.

rsv@Mark:9:43 @ And if your hand causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life maimed than with two hands to go to hell, to the unquenchable fire.

rsv@Mark:9:44 @ And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into hell.

rsv@Mark:9:45 @ And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out; it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into hell,

rsv@Mark:9:48 @ Salt is good; but if the salt has lost its saltness, how will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another."

rsv@Mark:10:1 @ And he left there and went to the region of Judea and beyond the Jordan, and crowds gathered to him again; and again, as his custom was, he taught them.

rsv@Mark:10:2 @ And Pharisees came up and in order to test him asked, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?"

rsv@Mark:10:6 @ But from the beginning of creation, `God made them male and female.'

rsv@Mark:10:7 @ `For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife,

rsv@Mark:10:9 @ What therefore God has joined together, let not man put asunder."

rsv@Mark:10:10 @ And in the house the disciples asked him again about this matter.

rsv@Mark:10:11 @ And he said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another, commits adultery against her;

rsv@Mark:10:13 @ And they were bringing children to him, that he might touch them; and the disciples rebuked them.

rsv@Mark:10:14 @ But when Jesus saw it he was indignant, and said to them, "Let the children come to me, do not hinder them; for to such belongs the kingdom of God.

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

rsv@Mark:10:16 @ And he took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands upon them.

rsv@Mark:10:17 @ And as he was setting out on his journey, a man ran up and knelt before him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?"

rsv@Mark:10:21 @ And Jesus looking upon him loved him, and said to him, "You lack one thing; go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me."

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

rsv@Mark:10:23 @ And Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, "How hard it will be for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!"

rsv@Mark:10:24 @ And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said to them again, "Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God!

rsv@Mark:10:25 @ 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."

rsv@Mark:10:26 @ And they were exceedingly astonished, and said to him, "Then who can be saved?"

rsv@Mark:10:27 @ Jesus looked at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God."

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

rsv@Mark:10:30 @ who will not receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and in the age to come eternal life.

rsv@Mark:10:32 @ And they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was walking ahead of them; and they were amazed, and those who followed were afraid. And taking the twelve again, he began to tell them what was to happen to him,

rsv@Mark:10:33 @ saying, "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death, and deliver him to the Gentiles;

rsv@Mark:10:37 @ And they said to him, "Grant us to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory."

rsv@Mark:10:38 @ But Jesus said to them, "You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, or to be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?"

rsv@Mark:10:39 @ And they said to him, "We are able." And Jesus said to them, "The cup that I drink you will drink; and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized;

rsv@Mark:10:40 @ but to sit at my right hand or at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared."

rsv@Mark:10:41 @ And when the ten heard it, they began to be indignant at James and John.

rsv@Mark:10:46 @ And they came to Jericho; and as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a great multitude, Bartimae'us, a blind beggar, the son of Timae'us, was sitting by the roadside.

rsv@Mark:10:48 @ And many rebuked him, telling him to be silent; but he cried out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"

rsv@Mark:10:49 @ And Jesus stopped and said, "Call him." And they called the blind man, saying to him, "Take heart; rise, he is calling you."

rsv@Mark:10:50 @ And throwing off his mantle he sprang up and came to Jesus.

rsv@Mark:10:51 @ And Jesus said to him, "What do you want me to do for you?" And the blind man said to him, "Master, let me receive my sight."

rsv@Mark:11:2 @ and said to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately as you enter it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat; untie it and bring it.

rsv@Mark:11:3 @ If any one says to you, `Why are you doing this?' say, `The Lord has need of it and will send it back here immediately.'"

rsv@Mark:11:4 @ And they went away, and found a colt tied at the door out in the open street; and they untied it.

rsv@Mark:11:5 @ And those who stood there said to them, "What are you doing, untying the colt?"

rsv@Mark:11:9 @ And those who went before and those who followed cried out, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!

rsv@Mark:11:10 @ Blessed is the kingdom of our father David that is coming! Hosanna in the highest!"

rsv@Mark:11:11 @ And he entered Jerusalem, and went into the temple; and when he had looked round at everything, as it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.

rsv@Mark:11:12 @ On the following day, when they came from Bethany, he was hungry.

rsv@Mark:11:13 @ And seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see if he could find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

rsv@Mark:11:14 @ And he said to it, "May no one ever eat fruit from you again." And his disciples heard it.

rsv@Mark:11:15 @ And they came to Jerusalem. And he entered the temple and began to drive out those who sold and those who bought in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons;

rsv@Mark:11:16 @ and he would not allow any one to carry anything through the temple.

rsv@Mark:11:18 @ And the chief priests and the scribes heard it and sought a way to destroy him; for they feared him, because all the multitude was astonished at his teaching.

rsv@Mark:11:19 @ And when evening came they went out of the city.

rsv@Mark:11:20 @ As they passed by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away to its roots.

rsv@Mark:11:22 @ And Jesus answered them, "Have faith in God.

rsv@Mark:11:23 @ Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, `Be taken up and cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.

rsv@Mark:11:24 @ Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

rsv@Mark:11:25 @ And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against any one; so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses."

rsv@Mark:11:26 @ And 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,

rsv@Mark:11:27 @ and they said to him, "By what authority are you doing these things, or who gave you this authority to do them?"

rsv@Mark:11:28 @ Jesus said to them, "I will ask you a question; answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

rsv@Mark:11:32 @ So they answered Jesus, "We do not know." And Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."

rsv@Mark:12:1 @ And he began to speak to them in parables. "A man planted a vineyard, and set a hedge around it, and dug a pit for the wine press, and built a tower, and let it out to tenants, and went into another country.

rsv@Mark:12:2 @ When the time came, he sent a servant to the tenants, to get from them some of the fruit of the vineyard.

rsv@Mark:12:4 @ Again he sent to them another servant, and they wounded him in the head, and treated him shamefully.

rsv@Mark:12:6 @ He had still one other, a beloved son; finally he sent him to them, saying, `They will respect my son.'

rsv@Mark:12:7 @ But those tenants said to one another, `This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'

rsv@Mark:12:8 @ And they took him and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.

rsv@Mark:12:9 @ What will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the tenants, and give the vineyard to others.

rsv@Mark:12:11 @ this was the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes'?"

rsv@Mark:12:12 @ And they tried to arrest him, but feared the multitude, for they perceived that he had told the parable against them; so they left him and went away.

rsv@Mark:12:13 @ And they sent to him some of the Pharisees and some of the Hero'di-ans, to entrap him in his talk.

rsv@Mark:12:15 @ Should we pay them, or should we not?" But knowing their hypocrisy, he said to them, "Why put me to the test? Bring me a coin, and let me look at it."

rsv@Mark:12:16 @ And they brought one. And he said to them, "Whose likeness and inscription is this?" They said to him, "Caesar's."

rsv@Mark:12:17 @ Jesus said to them, "Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." And they were amazed at him.

rsv@Mark:12:18 @ And Sad'ducees came to him, who say that there is no resurrection; and they asked him a question, saying,

rsv@Mark:12:21 @ and the second took her, and died, leaving no children; and the third likewise;

rsv@Mark:12:23 @ In the resurrection whose wife will she be? For the seven had her as wife."

rsv@Mark:12:25 @ For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.

rsv@Mark:12:26 @ And as for the dead being raised, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the passage about the bush, how God said to him, `I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'?

rsv@Mark:12:27 @ He is not God of the dead, but of the living; you are quite wrong."

rsv@Mark:12:28 @ And one of the scribes came up and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he answered them well, asked him, "Which commandment is the first of all?"

rsv@Mark:12:30 @ and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.'

rsv@Mark:12:33 @ and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is much more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices."

rsv@Mark:12:34 @ And when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God." And after that no one dared to ask him any question.

rsv@Mark:12:35 @ And as Jesus taught in the temple, he said, "How can the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?

rsv@Mark:12:36 @ David himself, inspired by the Holy Spirit, declared, `The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, till I put thy enemies under thy feet.'

rsv@Mark:12:38 @ And in his teaching he said, "Beware of the scribes, who like to go about in long robes, and to have salutations in the market places

rsv@Mark:12:39 @ and the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at feasts,

rsv@Mark:12:41 @ And he sat down opposite the treasury, and watched the multitude putting money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums.

rsv@Mark:12:42 @ And a poor widow came, and put in two copper coins, which make a penny.

rsv@Mark:12:43 @ And he called his disciples to him, and said to them, "Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the treasury.

rsv@Mark:12:44 @ For they all contributed out of their abundance; but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, her whole living."

rsv@Mark:13:1 @ And as he came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, "Look, Teacher, what wonderful stones and what wonderful buildings!"

rsv@Mark:13:2 @ And Jesus said to him, "Do you see these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down."

rsv@Mark:13:4 @ "Tell us, when will this be, and what will be the sign when these things are all to be accomplished?"

rsv@Mark:13:6 @ Many will come in my name, saying, `I am he!' and they will lead many astray.

rsv@Mark:14:3 @ And while he was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at table, a woman came with an alabaster flask of ointment of pure nard, very costly, and she broke the flask and poured it over his head.

rsv@Mark:14:4 @ But there were some who said to themselves indignantly, "Why was the ointment thus wasted?

rsv@Mark:14:20 @ He said to them, "It is one of the twelve, one who is dipping bread into the dish with me.

rsv@Mark:14:22 @ And as they were eating, he took bread, and blessed, and broke it, and gave it to them, and said, "Take; this is my body."

rsv@Mark:14:25 @ Truly, I say to you, I shall not drink again of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God."

rsv@Mark:14:34 @ And he said to them, "My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain here, and watch."

rsv@Mark:14:35 @ And going a little farther, he fell on the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.

rsv@Mark:14:36 @ And he said, "Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee; remove this cup from me; yet not what I will, but what thou wilt."

rsv@Mark:14:37 @ And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, "Simon, are you asleep? Could you not watch one hour?

rsv@Mark:14:38 @ Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."

rsv@Mark:14:39 @ And again he went away and prayed, saying the same words.

rsv@Mark:14:40 @ And again he came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy; and they did not know what to answer him.

rsv@Mark:14:41 @ And he came the third time, and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? It is enough; the hour has come; the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

rsv@Mark:14:42 @ Rise, let us be going; see, my betrayer is at hand."

rsv@Mark:14:43 @ And immediately, while he was still speaking, Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

rsv@Mark:14:44 @ Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, "The one I shall kiss is the man; seize him and lead him away under guard."

rsv@Mark:14:48 @ And Jesus said to them, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to capture me?

rsv@Mark:14:49 @ Day after day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me. But let the scriptures be fulfilled."

rsv@Mark:14:51 @ And a young man followed him, with nothing but a linen cloth about his body; and they seized him,

rsv@Mark:14:52 @ but he left the linen cloth and ran away naked.

rsv@Mark:14:54 @ And Peter had followed him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest; and he was sitting with the guards, and warming himself at the fire.

rsv@Mark:14:55 @ Now the chief priests and the whole council sought testimony against Jesus to put him to death; but they found none.

rsv@Mark:14:56 @ For many bore false witness against him, and their witness did not agree.

rsv@Mark:14:57 @ And some stood up and bore false witness against him, saying,

rsv@Mark:14:58 @ "We heard him say, `I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another, not made with hands.'"

rsv@Mark:14:60 @ And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, "Have you no answer to make? What is it that these men testify against you?"

rsv@Mark:14:61 @ But he was silent and made no answer. Again the high priest asked him, "Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?"

rsv@Mark:14:62 @ And Jesus said, "I am; and you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven."

rsv@Mark:14:64 @ You have heard his blasphemy. What is your decision?" And they all condemned him as deserving death.

rsv@Mark:14:65 @ And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to strike him, saying to him, "Prophesy!" And the guards received him with blows.

rsv@Mark:14:66 @ And as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the maids of the high priest came;

rsv@Mark:14:67 @ and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him, and said, "You also were with the Nazarene, Jesus."

rsv@Mark:14:68 @ But he denied it, saying, "I neither know nor understand what you mean." And he went out into the gateway.

rsv@Mark:14:69 @ And the maid saw him, and began again to say to the bystanders, "This man is one of them."

rsv@Mark:14:70 @ But again he denied it. And after a little while again the bystanders said to Peter, "Certainly you are one of them; for you are a Galilean."

rsv@Mark:14:71 @ But he began to invoke a curse on himself and to swear, "I do not know this man of whom you speak."

rsv@Mark:15:1 @ And as soon as it was morning the chief priests, with the elders and scribes, and the whole council held a consultation; and they bound Jesus and led him away and delivered him to Pilate.

rsv@Mark:15:2 @ And Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" And he answered him, "You have said so."

rsv@Mark:15:3 @ And the chief priests accused him of many things.

rsv@Mark:15:4 @ And Pilate again asked him, "Have you no answer to make? See how many charges they bring against you."

rsv@Mark:15:7 @ And among the rebels in prison, who had committed murder in the insurrection, there was a man called Barab'bas.

rsv@Mark:15:9 @ And he answered them, "Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?"

rsv@Mark:15:11 @ But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release for them Barab'bas instead.

rsv@Mark:15:12 @ And Pilate again said to them, "Then what shall I do with the man whom you call the King of the Jews?"

rsv@Mark:15:13 @ And they cried out again, "Crucify him."

rsv@Mark:15:15 @ So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released for them Barab'bas; and having scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.

rsv@Mark:15:16 @ And the soldiers led him away inside the palace (that is, the praetorium); and they called together the whole battalion.

rsv@Mark:15:17 @ And they clothed him in a purple cloak, and plaiting a crown of thorns they put it on him.

rsv@Mark:15:18 @ And they began to salute him, "Hail, King of the Jews!"

rsv@Mark:15:19 @ And they struck his head with a reed, and spat upon him, and they knelt down in homage to him.

rsv@Mark:15:21 @ And they compelled a passer-by, Simon of Cyre'ne, who was coming in from the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to carry his cross.

rsv@Mark:15:23 @ And they offered him wine mingled with myrrh; but he did not take it.

rsv@Mark:15:24 @ And they crucified him, and divided his garments among them, casting lots for them, to decide what each should take.

rsv@Mark:15:26 @ And the inscription of the charge against him read, "The King of the Jews."

rsv@Mark:15:28 @ And those who passed by derided him, wagging their heads, and saying, "Aha! You who would destroy the temple and build it in three days,

rsv@Mark:15:30 @ So also the chief priests mocked him to one another with the scribes, saying, "He saved others; he cannot save himself.

rsv@Mark:15:31 @ Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe." Those who were crucified with him also reviled him.

rsv@Mark:15:32 @ And when the sixth hour had come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.

rsv@Mark:15:33 @ And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, "E'lo-i, E'lo-i, la'ma sabach-tha'ni?" which means, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"

rsv@Mark:15:34 @ And some of the bystanders hearing it said, "Behold, he is calling Eli'jah."

rsv@Mark:15:35 @ And one ran and, filling a sponge full of vinegar, put it on a reed and gave it to him to drink, saying, "Wait, let us see whether Eli'jah will come to take him down."

rsv@Mark:15:37 @ And the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom.

rsv@Mark:15:38 @ And when the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that he thus breathed his last, he said, "Truly this man was the Son of God!"

rsv@Mark:15:39 @ There were also women looking on from afar, among whom were Mary Mag'dalene, and Mary the mother of James the younger and of Joses, and Salo'me,

rsv@Mark:15:40 @ who, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered to him; and also many other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.

rsv@Mark:15:41 @ And when evening had come, since it was the day of Preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,

rsv@Mark:15:42 @ Joseph of Arimathe'a, a respected member of the council, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus.

rsv@Mark:15:43 @ And Pilate wondered if he were already dead; and summoning the centurion, he asked him whether he was already dead.

rsv@Mark:15:45 @ And he bought a linen shroud, and taking him down, wrapped him in the linen shroud, and laid him in a tomb which had been hewn out of the rock; and he rolled a stone against the door of the tomb.

rsv@Mark:16:1 @ And when the sabbath was past, Mary Mag'dalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salo'me, bought spices, so that they might go and anoint him.

rsv@Mark:16:3 @ And they were saying to one another, "Who will roll away the stone for us from the door of the tomb?"

rsv@Mark:16:4 @ And looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back; --it was very large.

rsv@Mark:16:5 @ And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were amazed.

rsv@Mark:16:7 @ But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him, as he told you."

rsv@Mark:16:8 @ And they went out and fled from the tomb; for trembling and astonishment had come upon them; and they said nothing to any one, for they were afraid.

rsv@Mark:16:12 @ After this he appeared in another form to two of them, as they were walking into the country.

rsv@Mark:16:15 @ And he said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to the whole creation.

rsv@Mark:16:17 @ And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues;

rsv@Mark:16:18 @ they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover."

rsv@Mark:16:19 @ So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.

rsv@Luke:1:1 @ Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile a narrative of the things which have been accomplished among us,

rsv@Luke:1:2 @ just as they were delivered to us by those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word,

rsv@Luke:1:3 @ it seemed good to me also, having followed all things closely for some time past, to write an orderly account for you, most excellent The-oph'ilus,

rsv@Luke:1:4 @ that you may know the truth concerning the things of which you have been informed.

rsv@Luke:1:5 @ In the days of Herod, king of Judea, there was a priest named Zechari'ah, of the division of Abi'jah; and he had a wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

rsv@Luke:1:6 @ And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

rsv@Luke:1:7 @ But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and both were advanced in years.

rsv@Luke:1:8 @ Now while he was serving as priest before God when his division was on duty,

rsv@Luke:1:9 @ according to the custom of the priesthood, it fell to him by lot to enter the temple of the Lord and burn incense.

rsv@Luke:1:10 @ And the whole multitude of the people were praying outside at the hour of incense.

rsv@Luke:1:11 @ And there appeared to him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.

rsv@Luke:1:15 @ for he will be great before the Lord, and he shall drink no wine nor strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.

rsv@Luke:1:17 @ and he will go before him in the spirit and power of Eli'jah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready for the Lord a people prepared."

rsv@Luke:1:18 @ And Zechari'ah said to the angel, "How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is advanced in years."

rsv@Luke:1:19 @ And the angel answered him, "I am Gabriel, who stand in the presence of God; and I was sent to speak to you, and to bring you this good news.

rsv@Luke:1:20 @ And behold, you will be silent and unable to speak until the day that these things come to pass, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled in their time."

rsv@Luke:1:21 @ And the people were waiting for Zechari'ah, and they wondered at his delay in the temple.

rsv@Luke:1:22 @ And when he came out, he could not speak to them, and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple; and he made signs to them and remained dumb.

rsv@Luke:1:24 @ After these days his wife Elizabeth conceived, and for five months she hid herself, saying,

rsv@Luke:1:25 @ "Thus the Lord has done to me in the days when he looked on me, to take away my reproach among men."

rsv@Luke:1:26 @ In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,

rsv@Luke:1:27 @ to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.

rsv@Luke:1:29 @ But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be.

rsv@Luke:1:31 @ And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus.

rsv@Luke:1:33 @ and he will reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there will be no end."

rsv@Luke:1:34 @ And Mary said to the angel, "How shall this be, since I have no husband?"

rsv@Luke:1:36 @ And behold, your kinswoman Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

rsv@Luke:1:37 @ For with God nothing will be impossible."

rsv@Luke:1:38 @ And Mary said, "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word." And the angel departed from her.

rsv@Luke:1:39 @ In those days Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country, to a city of Judah,

rsv@Luke:1:41 @ And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit

rsv@Luke:1:44 @ For behold, when the voice of your greeting came to my ears, the babe in my womb leaped for joy.

rsv@Luke:1:47 @ and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,

rsv@Luke:1:49 @ for he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name.

rsv@Luke:1:51 @ He has shown strength with his arm, he has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts,

rsv@Luke:1:53 @ he has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent empty away.

rsv@Luke:1:54 @ He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy,

rsv@Luke:1:56 @ And Mary remained with her about three months, and returned to her home.

rsv@Luke:1:58 @ And her neighbors and kinsfolk heard that the Lord had shown great mercy to her, and they rejoiced with her.

rsv@Luke:1:61 @ And they said to her, "None of your kindred is called by this name."

rsv@Luke:1:62 @ And they made signs to his father, inquiring what he would have him called.

rsv@Luke:1:63 @ And he asked for a writing tablet, and wrote, "His name is John." And they all marveled.

rsv@Luke:1:64 @ And immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, blessing God.

rsv@Luke:1:65 @ And fear came on all their neighbors. And all these things were talked about through all the hill country of Judea;

rsv@Luke:1:66 @ and all who heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, "What then will this child be?" For the hand of the Lord was with him.

rsv@Luke:1:67 @ And his father Zechari'ah was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying,

rsv@Luke:1:69 @ and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David,

rsv@Luke:1:74 @ to grant us that we, being delivered from the hand of our enemies, might serve him without fear,

rsv@Luke:1:75 @ in holiness and righteousness before him all the days of our life.

rsv@Luke:1:77 @ to give knowledge of salvation to his people in the forgiveness of their sins,

rsv@Luke:1:79 @ to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace."

rsv@Luke:1:80 @ And the child grew and became strong in spirit, and he was in the wilderness till the day of his manifestation to Israel.

rsv@Luke:2:1 @ In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be enrolled.

rsv@Luke:2:2 @ This was the first enrollment, when Quirin'i-us was governor of Syria.

rsv@Luke:2:4 @ And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David,

rsv@Luke:2:7 @ And she gave birth to her first-born son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths, and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.

rsv@Luke:2:8 @ And in that region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

rsv@Luke:2:10 @ And the angel said to them, "Be not afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy which will come to all the people;

rsv@Luke:2:11 @ for to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

rsv@Luke:2:12 @ And this will be a sign for you: you will find a babe wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger."

rsv@Luke:2:13 @ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying,

rsv@Luke:2:14 @ "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men with whom he is pleased!"

rsv@Luke:2:15 @ When the angels went away from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let us go over to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us."

rsv@Luke:2:16 @ And they went with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.

rsv@Luke:2:17 @ And when they saw it they made known the saying which had been told them concerning this child;

rsv@Luke:2:19 @ But Mary kept all these things, pondering them in her heart.

rsv@Luke:2:20 @ And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.

rsv@Luke:2:21 @ And at the end of eight days, when he was circumcised, he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.

rsv@Luke:2:22 @ And when the time came for their purification according to the law of Moses, they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord

rsv@Luke:2:23 @ (as it is written in the law of the Lord, "Every male that opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord")

rsv@Luke:2:24 @ and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the law of the Lord, "a pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons."

rsv@Luke:2:25 @ Now 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.

rsv@Luke:2:27 @ And inspired by the Spirit he came into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the law,

rsv@Luke:2:28 @ he took him up in his arms and blessed God and said,

rsv@Luke:2:29 @ "Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word;

rsv@Luke:2:30 @ for mine eyes have seen thy salvation

rsv@Luke:2:31 @ which thou hast prepared in the presence of all peoples,

rsv@Luke:2:37 @ and as a widow till she was eighty-four. She did not depart from the temple, worshiping with fasting and prayer night and day.

rsv@Luke:2:38 @ And coming up at that very hour she gave thanks to God, and spoke of him to all who were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem.

rsv@Luke:2:39 @ And when they had performed everything according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city, Nazareth.

rsv@Luke:2:42 @ And when he was twelve years old, they went up according to custom;

rsv@Luke:2:43 @ and when the feast was ended, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. His parents did not know it,

rsv@Luke:2:44 @ but supposing him to be in the company they went a day's journey, and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintances;

rsv@Luke:2:45 @ and when they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem, seeking him.

rsv@Luke:2:46 @ After three days they found him in the temple, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions;

rsv@Luke:2:47 @ and all who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.

rsv@Luke:2:48 @ And when they saw him they were astonished; and his mother said to him, "Son, why have you treated us so? Behold, your father and I have been looking for you anxiously."

rsv@Luke:2:49 @ And he said to them, "How is it that you sought me? Did you not know that I must be in my Father's house?"

rsv@Luke:2:50 @ And they did not understand the saying which he spoke to them.

rsv@Luke:2:51 @ And he went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was obedient to them; and his mother kept all these things in her heart.

rsv@Luke:2:52 @ And Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature, and in favor with God and man.

rsv@Luke:3:1 @ In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiber'i-us Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of the region of Iturae'a and Trachoni'tis, and Lysa'ni-as tetrarch of Abile'ne,

rsv@Luke:3:2 @ in the high-priesthood of Annas and Ca'iaphas, the word of God came to John the son of Zechari'ah in the wilderness;

rsv@Luke:3:3 @ and he went into all the region about the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.

rsv@Luke:3:4 @ As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

rsv@Luke:3:5 @ Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low, and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;

rsv@Luke:3:13 @ And he said to them, "Collect no more than is appointed you."

rsv@Luke:3:15 @ As the people were in expectation, and all men questioned in their hearts concerning John, whether perhaps he were the Christ,

rsv@Luke:3:16 @ John answered them all, "I baptize you with water; but he who is mightier than I is coming, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie; he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

rsv@Luke:3:17 @ His winnowing fork is in his hand, to clear his threshing floor, and to gather the wheat into his granary, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire."

rsv@Luke:3:19 @ But Herod the tetrarch, who had been reproved by him for Hero'di-as, his brother's wife, and for all the evil things that Herod had done,

rsv@Luke:3:20 @ added this to them all, that he shut up John in prison.

rsv@Luke:3:21 @ Now when all the people were baptized, and when Jesus also had been baptized and was praying, the heaven was opened,

rsv@Luke:3:22 @ and the Holy Spirit descended upon him in bodily form, as a dove, and a voice came from heaven, "Thou art my beloved Son; with thee I am well pleased."

rsv@Luke:4:5 @ And the devil took him up, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time,

rsv@Luke:4:9 @ And he took him to Jerusalem, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from here;

rsv@Luke:4:11 @ and `On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.'"

rsv@Luke:4:14 @ And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee, and a report concerning him went out through all the surrounding country.

rsv@Luke:4:15 @ And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified by all.

rsv@Luke:4:18 @ "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed,

rsv@Luke:4:20 @ And he closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant, and sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him.

rsv@Luke:4:21 @ And he began to say to them, "Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing."

rsv@Luke:4:23 @ And he said to them, "Doubtless you will quote to me this proverb, `Physician, heal yourself; what we have heard you did at Caper'na-um, do here also in your own country.'"

rsv@Luke:4:24 @ And he said, "Truly, I say to you, no prophet is acceptable in his own country.

rsv@Luke:4:25 @ But in truth, I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Eli'jah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when there came a great famine over all the land;

rsv@Luke:4:28 @ When they heard this, all in the synagogue were filled with wrath.

rsv@Luke:4:30 @ But passing through the midst of them he went away.

rsv@Luke:4:31 @ And he went down to Caper'na-um, a city of Galilee. And he was teaching them on the sabbath;

rsv@Luke:4:32 @ and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word was with authority.

rsv@Luke:4:33 @ And in the synagogue there was a man who had the spirit of an unclean demon; and he cried out with a loud voice,

rsv@Luke:4:35 @ But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be silent, and come out of him!" And when the demon had thrown him down in the midst, he came out of him, having done him no harm.

rsv@Luke:4:37 @ And reports of him went out into every place in the surrounding region.

rsv@Luke:4:38 @ And he arose and left the synagogue, and entered Simon's house. Now Simon's mother-in-law was ill with a high fever, and they besought him for her.

rsv@Luke:4:40 @ Now when the sun was setting, all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to him; and he laid his hands on every one of them and healed them.

rsv@Luke:4:41 @ And demons also came out of many, crying, "You are the Son of God!" But he rebuked them, and would not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.

rsv@Luke:4:42 @ And when it was day he departed and went into a lonely place. And the people sought him and came to him, and would have kept him from leaving them;

rsv@Luke:4:43 @ but he said to them, "I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other cities also; for I was sent for this purpose."

rsv@Luke:4:44 @ And he was preaching in the synagogues of Judea.

rsv@Luke:5:1 @ While the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he was standing by the lake of Gennes'aret.

rsv@Luke:5:2 @ And he saw two boats by the lake; but the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets.

rsv@Luke:5:3 @ Getting into one of the boats, which was Simon's, he asked him to put out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the people from the boat.

rsv@Luke:5:4 @ And when he had ceased speaking, he said to Simon, "Put out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch."

rsv@Luke:5:5 @ And Simon answered, "Master, we toiled all night and took nothing! But at your word I will let down the nets."

rsv@Luke:5:6 @ And when they had done this, they enclosed a great shoal of fish; and as their nets were breaking,

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

rsv@Luke:5:8 @ But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord."

rsv@Luke:5:10 @ and so also were James and John, sons of Zeb'edee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid; henceforth you will be catching men."

rsv@Luke:5:11 @ And when they had brought their boats to land, they left everything and followed him.

rsv@Luke:5:12 @ While he was in one of the cities, there came a man full of leprosy; and when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and besought him, "Lord, if you will, you can make me clean."

rsv@Luke:5:13 @ And he stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, "I will; be clean." And immediately the leprosy left him.

rsv@Luke:5:14 @ And he charged him to tell no one; but "go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as Moses commanded, for a proof to the people."

rsv@Luke:5:15 @ But so much the more the report went abroad concerning him; and great multitudes gathered to hear and to be healed of their infirmities.

rsv@Luke:5:17 @ On one of those days, as he was teaching, there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was with him to heal.

rsv@Luke:5:18 @ And behold, men were bringing on a bed a man who was paralyzed, and they sought to bring him in and lay him before Jesus;

rsv@Luke:5:19 @ but finding no way to bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down with his bed through the tiles into the midst before Jesus.

rsv@Luke:5:20 @ And when he saw their faith he said, "Man, your sins are forgiven you."

rsv@Luke:5:21 @ And the scribes and the Pharisees began to question, saying, "Who is this that speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God only?"

rsv@Luke:5:22 @ When Jesus perceived their questionings, he answered them, "Why do you question in your hearts?

rsv@Luke:5:23 @ Which is easier, to say, `Your sins are forgiven you,' or to say, `Rise and walk'?

rsv@Luke:5:24 @ But that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins"--he said to the man who was paralyzed--"I say to you, rise, take up your bed and go home."

rsv@Luke:5:25 @ And immediately he rose before them, and took up that on which he lay, and went home, glorifying God.

rsv@Luke:5:26 @ And amazement seized them all, and they glorified God and were filled with awe, saying, "We have seen strange things today."

rsv@Luke:5:27 @ After this he went out, and saw a tax collector, named Levi, sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, "Follow me."

rsv@Luke:5:28 @ And he left everything, and rose and followed him.

rsv@Luke:5:29 @ And Levi made him a great feast in his house; and there was a large company of tax collectors and others sitting at table with them.

rsv@Luke:5:30 @ And the Pharisees and their scribes murmured against his disciples, saying, "Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?"

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

rsv@Luke:5:33 @ And they said to him, "The disciples of John fast often and offer prayers, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, but yours eat and drink."

rsv@Luke:5:34 @ And Jesus said to them, "Can you make wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them?

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

rsv@Luke:5:37 @ And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; if he does, the new wine will burst the skins and it will be spilled, and the skins will be destroyed.

rsv@Luke:5:38 @ But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.

rsv@Luke:5:39 @ And no one after drinking old wine desires new; for he says, `The old is good.'"

rsv@Luke:6:1 @ On a sabbath, while he was going through the grainfields, his disciples plucked and ate some heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands.

rsv@Luke:6:2 @ But some of the Pharisees said, "Why are you doing what is not lawful to do on the sabbath?"

rsv@Luke:6:7 @ And the scribes and the Pharisees watched him, to see whether he would heal on the sabbath, so that they might find an accusation against him.

rsv@Luke:6:12 @ In these days he went out to the mountain to pray; and all night he continued in prayer to God.

rsv@Luke:6:20 @ And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said: "Blessed are you poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

rsv@Luke:6:23 @ Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven; for so their fathers did to the prophets.

rsv@Luke:6:34 @ And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to receive as much again.

rsv@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 is kind to the ungrateful and the selfish.

rsv@Luke:6:38 @ give, and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For the measure you give will be the measure you get back."

rsv@Luke:6:39 @ He also told them a parable: "Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit?

rsv@Luke:6:41 @ Why do you see the speck that is in your brother's eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?

rsv@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.

rsv@Luke:6:49 @ But he who hears and does not do them is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation; against which the stream broke, and immediately it fell, and the ruin of that house was great."

rsv@Luke:7:1 @ After he had ended all his sayings in the hearing of the people he entered Caper'na-um.

rsv@Luke:7:2 @ Now a centurion had a slave who was dear to him, who was sick and at the point of death.

rsv@Luke:7:3 @ When he heard of Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and heal his slave.

rsv@Luke:7:4 @ And when they came to Jesus, they besought him earnestly, saying, "He is worthy to have you do this for him,

rsv@Luke:7:9 @ When Jesus heard this he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude that followed him, "I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such faith."

rsv@Luke:7:11 @ Soon afterward he went to a city called Na'in, and his disciples and a great crowd went with him.

rsv@Luke:7:12 @ As he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, a man who had died was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a large crowd from the city was with her.

rsv@Luke:7:16 @ Fear seized them all; and they glorified God, saying, "A great prophet has arisen among us!" and "God has visited his people!"

rsv@Luke:7:17 @ And this report concerning him spread through the whole of Judea and all the surrounding country.

rsv@Luke:7:18 @ The disciples of John told him of all these things.

rsv@Luke:7:19 @ And John, calling to him two of his disciples, sent them to the Lord, saying, "Are you he who is to come, or shall we look for another?"

rsv@Luke:7:20 @ And when the men had come to him, they said, "John the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, `Are you he who is to come, or shall we look for another?'"

rsv@Luke:7:21 @ In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits, and on many that were blind he bestowed sight.

rsv@Luke:7:22 @ And he answered them, "Go and tell John what you have seen and heard: the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have good news preached to them.

rsv@Luke:7:24 @ When the messengers of John had gone, he began to speak to the crowds concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to behold? A reed shaken by the wind?

rsv@Luke:7:25 @ What then did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are gorgeously appareled and live in luxury are in kings' courts.

rsv@Luke:7:28 @ I tell you, among those born of women none is greater than John; yet he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he."

rsv@Luke:7:29 @ (When they heard this all the people and the tax collectors justified God, having been baptized with the baptism of John;

rsv@Luke:7:30 @ but the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God for themselves, not having been baptized by him.)

rsv@Luke:7:32 @ They are like children sitting in the market place and calling to one another, `We piped to you, and you did not dance; we wailed, and you did not weep.'

rsv@Luke:7:34 @ The Son of man has come eating and drinking; and you say, `Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!'

rsv@Luke:7:36 @ One of the Pharisees asked him to eat with him, and he went into the Pharisee's house, and took his place at table.

rsv@Luke:7:37 @ And behold, a woman of the city, who was a sinner, when she learned that he was at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster flask of ointment,

rsv@Luke:7:38 @ and standing behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

rsv@Luke:7:39 @ Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, "If this man were a prophet, he would have known who and what sort of woman this is who is touching him, for she is a sinner."

rsv@Luke:7:40 @ And Jesus answering said to him, "Simon, I have something to say to you." And he answered, "What is it, Teacher?"

rsv@Luke:7:41 @ "A certain creditor had two debtors; one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

rsv@Luke:7:44 @ Then 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.

rsv@Luke:7:45 @ You gave me no kiss, but from the time I came in she has not ceased to kiss my feet.

rsv@Luke:7:46 @ You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.

rsv@Luke:7:47 @ Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much; but he who is forgiven little, loves little."

rsv@Luke:7:48 @ And he said to her, "Your sins are forgiven."

rsv@Luke:7:49 @ Then those who were at table with him began to say among themselves, "Who is this, who even forgives sins?"

rsv@Luke:7:50 @ And he said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you; go in peace."

rsv@Luke:8:1 @ Soon afterward he went on through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with him,

rsv@Luke:8:2 @ and also some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary, called Mag'dalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,

rsv@Luke:8:4 @ And when a great crowd came together and people from town after town came to him, he said in a parable:

rsv@Luke:8:8 @ And some fell into good soil and grew, and yielded a hundredfold." As he said this, he called out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."

rsv@Luke:8:10 @ he said, "To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of God; but for others they are in parables, so that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.

rsv@Luke:8:13 @ And the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy; but these have no root, they believe for a while and in time of temptation fall away.

rsv@Luke:8:15 @ And as for that in the good soil, they are those who, hearing the word, hold it fast in an honest and good heart, and bring forth fruit with patience.

rsv@Luke:8:16 @ "No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a vessel, or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a stand, that those who enter may see the light.

rsv@Luke:8:17 @ For nothing is hid that shall not be made manifest, nor anything secret that shall not be known and come to light.

rsv@Luke:8:18 @ Take heed then how you hear; for to him who has will more be given, and from him who has not, even what he thinks that he has will be taken away."

rsv@Luke:8:20 @ And he was told, "Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, desiring to see you."

rsv@Luke:8:22 @ One day he got into a boat with his disciples, and he said to them, "Let us go across to the other side of the lake." So they set out,

rsv@Luke:8:23 @ and as they sailed he fell asleep. And a storm of wind came down on the lake, and they were filling with water, and were in danger.

rsv@Luke:8:24 @ And they went and woke him, saying, "Master, Master, we are perishing!" And he awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging waves; and they ceased, and there was a calm.

rsv@Luke:8:25 @ He said to them, "Where is your faith?" And they were afraid, and they marveled, saying to one another, "Who then is this, that he commands even wind and water, and they obey him?"

rsv@Luke:8:27 @ And as he stepped out on land, there met him a man from the city who had demons; for a long time he had worn no clothes, and he lived not in a house but among the tombs.

rsv@Luke:8:29 @ For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. (For many a time it had seized him; he was kept under guard, and bound with chains and fetters, but he broke the bonds and was driven by the demon into the desert.)

rsv@Luke:8:31 @ And they begged him not to command them to depart into the abyss.

rsv@Luke:8:32 @ Now a large herd of swine was feeding there on the hillside; and they begged him to let them enter these. So he gave them leave.

rsv@Luke:8:33 @ Then the demons came out of the man and entered the swine, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.

rsv@Luke:8:34 @ When the herdsmen saw what had happened, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country.

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

rsv@Luke:8:37 @ Then all the people of the surrounding country of the Ger'asenes asked him to depart from them; for they were seized with great fear; so he got into the boat and returned.

rsv@Luke:8:38 @ The man from whom the demons had gone begged that he might be with him; but he sent him away, saying,

rsv@Luke:8:39 @ "Return to your home, and declare how much God has done for you." And he went away, proclaiming throughout the whole city how much Jesus had done for him.

rsv@Luke:8:40 @ Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.

rsv@Luke:8:41 @ And there came a man named Ja'irus, who was a ruler of the synagogue; and falling at Jesus' feet he besought him to come to his house,

rsv@Luke:8:42 @ for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. As he went, the people pressed round him.

rsv@Luke:8:44 @ came up behind him, and touched the fringe of his garment; and immediately her flow of blood ceased.

rsv@Luke:8:47 @ And when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared in the presence of all the people why she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed.

rsv@Luke:8:48 @ And he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace."

rsv@Luke:8:49 @ While he was still speaking, a man from the ruler's house came and said, "Your daughter is dead; do not trouble the Teacher any more."

rsv@Luke:8:50 @ But Jesus on hearing this answered him, "Do not fear; only believe, and she shall be well."

rsv@Luke:8:52 @ And all were weeping and bewailing her; but he said, "Do not weep; for she is not dead but sleeping."

rsv@Luke:8:53 @ And they laughed at him, knowing that she was dead.

rsv@Luke:8:54 @ But taking her by the hand he called, saying, "Child, arise."

rsv@Luke:8:55 @ And her spirit returned, and she got up at once; and he directed that something should be given her to eat.

rsv@Luke:9:2 @ and he sent them out to preach the kingdom of God and to heal.

rsv@Luke:9:3 @ And he said to them, "Take nothing for your journey, no staff, nor bag, nor bread, nor money; and do not have two tunics.

rsv@Luke:9:5 @ And wherever they do not receive you, when you leave that town shake off the dust from your feet as a testimony against them."

rsv@Luke:9:6 @ And they departed and went through the villages, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere.

rsv@Luke:9:9 @ Herod said, "John I beheaded; but who is this about whom I hear such things?" And he sought to see him.

rsv@Luke:9:11 @ When the crowds learned it, they followed him; and he welcomed them and spoke to them of the kingdom of God, and cured those who had need of healing.

rsv@Luke:9:12 @ Now the day began to wear away; and the twelve came and said to him, "Send the crowd away, to go into the villages and country round about, to lodge and get provisions; for we are here in a lonely place."

rsv@Luke:9:13 @ But he said to them, "You give them something to eat." They said, "We have no more than five loaves and two fish--unless we are to go and buy food for all these people."

rsv@Luke:9:14 @ For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, "Make them sit down in companies, about fifty each."

rsv@Luke:9:16 @ And taking the five loaves and the two fish he looked up to heaven, and blessed and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd.

rsv@Luke:9:18 @ Now it happened that as he was praying alone the disciples were with him; and he asked them, "Who do the people say that I am?"

rsv@Luke:9:22 @ saying, "The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised."

rsv@Luke:9:25 @ For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?

rsv@Luke:9:26 @ For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of man be ashamed when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.

rsv@Luke:9:27 @ But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God."

rsv@Luke:9:28 @ Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up on the mountain to pray.

rsv@Luke:9:29 @ And as he was praying, the appearance of his countenance was altered, and his raiment became dazzling white.

rsv@Luke:9:31 @ who appeared in glory and spoke of his departure, which he was to accomplish at Jerusalem.

rsv@Luke:9:33 @ And as the men were parting from him, Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is well that we are here; let us make three booths, one for you and one for Moses and one for Eli'jah"--not knowing what he said.

rsv@Luke:9:35 @ And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is my Son, my Chosen; listen to him!"

rsv@Luke:9:36 @ And when the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silence and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.

rsv@Luke:9:37 @ On the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great crowd met him.

rsv@Luke:9:41 @ Jesus answered, "O faithless and perverse generation, how long am I to be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here."

rsv@Luke:9:42 @ While he was coming, the demon tore him and convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

rsv@Luke:9:43 @ And all were astonished at the majesty of God. But while they were all marveling at everything he did, he said to his disciples,

rsv@Luke:9:44 @ "Let these words sink into your ears; for the Son of man is to be delivered into the hands of men."

rsv@Luke:9:45 @ But they did not understand this saying, and it was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.

rsv@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 he who is least among you all is the one who is great."

rsv@Luke:9:49 @ John answered, "Master, we saw a man casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us."

rsv@Luke:9:50 @ But Jesus said to him, "Do not forbid him; for he that is not against you is for you."

rsv@Luke:9:57 @ As they were going along the road, a man said to him, "I will follow you wherever you go."

rsv@Luke:9:60 @ But he said to him, "Leave the dead to bury their own dead; but as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God."

rsv@Luke:9:62 @ Jesus said to him, "No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God."

rsv@Luke:10:1 @ After this the Lord appointed seventy others, and sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to come.

rsv@Luke:10:2 @ And he said to them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.

rsv@Luke:10:3 @ Go your way; behold, I send you out as lambs in the midst of wolves.

rsv@Luke:10:7 @ And remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for the laborer deserves his wages; do not go from house to house.

rsv@Luke:10:10 @ But whenever you enter a town and they do not receive you, go into its streets and say,

rsv@Luke:10:11 @ `Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet, we wipe off against you; nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God has come near.'

rsv@Luke:10:13 @ "Woe to you, Chora'zin! woe to you, Beth-sa'ida! for if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.

rsv@Luke:10:17 @ The seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!"

rsv@Luke:10:18 @ And he said to them, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven.

rsv@Luke:10:19 @ Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall hurt you.

rsv@Luke:10:20 @ Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven."

rsv@Luke:10:21 @ In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, "I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes; yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will.

rsv@Luke:10:22 @ All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, or who the Father is except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him."

rsv@Luke:10:23 @ Then turning to the disciples he said privately, "Blessed are the eyes which see what you see!

rsv@Luke:10:24 @ For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it."

rsv@Luke:10:25 @ And behold, a lawyer stood up to put him to the test, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?"

rsv@Luke:10:26 @ He said to him, "What is written in the law? How do you read?"

rsv@Luke:10:27 @ And he answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself."

rsv@Luke:10:29 @ But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?"

rsv@Luke:10:30 @ Jesus replied, "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

rsv@Luke:10:31 @ Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and when he saw him he passed by on the other side.

rsv@Luke:10:34 @ and went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; then he set him on his own beast and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

rsv@Luke:10:35 @ And the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, `Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.'

rsv@Luke:10:36 @ Which of these three, do you think, proved neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?"

rsv@Luke:10:38 @ Now as they went on their way, he entered a village; and a woman named Martha received him into her house.

rsv@Luke:10:39 @ And she had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet and listened to his teaching.

rsv@Luke:18:5 @ yet because this widow bothers me, I will vindicate her, or she will wear me out by her continual coming.'"

rsv@Luke:18:7 @ And will not God vindicate his elect, who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long over them?

rsv@Luke:18:8 @ I tell you, he will vindicate them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man comes, will he find faith on earth?"

rsv@Luke:18:9 @ He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and despised others:

rsv@Luke:18:10 @ "Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.

rsv@Luke:18:13 @ But the tax collector, standing far off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, `God, be merciful to me a sinner!'

rsv@Luke:18:15 @ Now they were bringing even infants to him that he might touch them; and when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.

rsv@Luke:18:16 @ But Jesus called them to him, saying, "Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them; for to such belongs the kingdom of God.

rsv@Luke:18:17 @ Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it."

rsv@Luke:18:18 @ And a ruler asked him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?"

rsv@Luke:18:22 @ And when Jesus heard it, he said to him, "One thing you still lack. Sell all that you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me."

rsv@Luke:18:24 @ Jesus looking at him said, "How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!

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

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

rsv@Luke:18:30 @ who will not receive manifold more in this time, and in the age to come eternal life."

rsv@Luke:18:31 @ And taking the twelve, he said to them, "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written of the Son of man by the prophets will be accomplished.

rsv@Luke:18:34 @ But they understood none of these things; this saying was hid from them, and they did not grasp what was said.

rsv@Luke:18:35 @ As he drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging;

rsv@Luke:18:36 @ and hearing a multitude going by, he inquired what this meant.

rsv@Luke:18:37 @ They told him, "Jesus of Nazareth is passing by."

rsv@Luke:18:39 @ And those who were in front rebuked him, telling him to be silent; but he cried out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"

rsv@Luke:18:43 @ And immediately he received his sight and followed him, glorifying God; and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.

rsv@Luke:19:1 @ He entered Jericho and was passing through.

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

rsv@Luke:19:7 @ And when they saw it they all murmured, "He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner."

rsv@Luke:19:8 @ And Zacchae'us stood and said to the Lord, "Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have defrauded any one of anything, I restore it fourfold."

rsv@Luke:19:9 @ And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham.

rsv@Luke:19:11 @ As they heard these things, he proceeded to tell a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem, and because they supposed that the kingdom of God was to appear immediately.

rsv@Luke:19:12 @ He said therefore, "A nobleman went into a far country to receive a kingdom and then return.

rsv@Luke:19:13 @ Calling ten of his servants, he gave them ten pounds, and said to them, `Trade with these till I come.'

rsv@Luke:19:14 @ But his citizens hated him and sent an embassy after him, saying, `We do not want this man to reign over us.'

rsv@Luke:19:15 @ When he returned, having received the kingdom, he commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by trading.

rsv@Luke:19:16 @ The first came before him, saying, `Lord, your pound has made ten pounds more.'

rsv@Luke:19:17 @ And he said to him, `Well done, good servant! Because you have been faithful in a very little, you shall have authority over ten cities.'

rsv@Luke:19:18 @ And the second came, saying, `Lord, your pound has made five pounds.'

rsv@Luke:19:20 @ Then another came, saying, `Lord, here is your pound, which I kept laid away in a napkin;

rsv@Luke:19:22 @ He said to him, `I will condemn you out of your own mouth, you wicked servant! You knew that I was a severe man, taking up what I did not lay down and reaping what I did not sow?

rsv@Luke:19:23 @ Why then did you not put my money into the bank, and at my coming I should have collected it with interest?'

rsv@Luke:19:27 @ But as for these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them before me.'"

rsv@Luke:19:28 @ And when he had said this, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.

rsv@Luke:19:30 @ saying, "Go into the village opposite, where on entering you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever yet sat; untie it and bring it here.

rsv@Luke:19:31 @ If any one asks you, `Why are you untying it?' you shall say this, `The Lord has need of it.'"

rsv@Luke:19:33 @ And as they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, "Why are you untying the colt?"

rsv@Luke:19:35 @ And they brought it to Jesus, and throwing their garments on the colt they set Jesus upon it.

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

rsv@Luke:19:38 @ saying, "Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"

rsv@Luke:19:39 @ And some of the Pharisees in the multitude said to him, "Teacher, rebuke your disciples."

rsv@Luke:19:42 @ saying, "Would that even today you knew the things that make for peace! But now they are hid from your eyes.

rsv@Luke:19:43 @ For the days shall come upon you, when your enemies will cast up a bank about you and surround you, and hem you in on every side,

rsv@Luke:19:44 @ and dash you to the ground, you and your children within you, and they will not leave one stone upon another in you; because you did not know the time of your visitation."

rsv@Luke:19:46 @ saying to them, "It is written, `My house shall be a house of prayer'; but you have made it a den of robbers."

rsv@Luke:19:47 @ And he was teaching daily in the temple. The chief priests and the scribes and the principal men of the people sought to destroy him;

rsv@Luke:19:48 @ but they did not find anything they could do, for all the people hung upon his words.

rsv@Luke:20:1 @ One day, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes with the elders came up

rsv@Luke:20:2 @ and said to him, "Tell us by what authority you do these things, or who it is that gave you this authority."

rsv@Luke:20:5 @ And they discussed it with one another, saying, "If we say, `From heaven,' he will say, `Why did you not believe him?'

rsv@Luke:20:6 @ But if we say, `From men,' all the people will stone us; for they are convinced that John was a prophet."

rsv@Luke:20:8 @ And Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."

rsv@Luke:20:9 @ And he began to tell the people this parable: "A man planted a vineyard, and let it out to tenants, and went into another country for a long while.

rsv@Luke:20:10 @ When the time came, he sent a servant to the tenants, that they should give him some of the fruit of the vineyard; but the tenants beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.

rsv@Luke:20:13 @ Then the owner of the vineyard said, `What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; it may be they will respect him.'

rsv@Luke:20:14 @ But when the tenants saw him, they said to themselves, `This is the heir; let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'

rsv@Luke:20:15 @ And they cast him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?

rsv@Luke:20:16 @ He will come and destroy those tenants, and give the vineyard to others." When they heard this, they said, "God forbid!"

rsv@Luke:20:19 @ The scribes and the chief priests tried to lay hands on him at that very hour, but they feared the people; for they perceived that he had told this parable against them.

rsv@Luke:20:20 @ So they watched him, and sent spies, who pretended to be sincere, that they might take hold of what he said, so as to deliver him up to the authority and jurisdiction of the governor.

rsv@Luke:20:23 @ But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them,

rsv@Luke:20:24 @ "Show me a coin. Whose likeness and inscription has it?" They said, "Caesar's."

rsv@Luke:20:25 @ He said to them, "Then render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."

rsv@Luke:20:26 @ And they were not able in the presence of the people to catch him by what he said; but marveling at his answer they were silent.

rsv@Luke:20:28 @ and they asked him a question, saying, "Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man's brother dies, having a wife but no children, the man must take the wife and raise up children for his brother.

rsv@Luke:20:33 @ In the resurrection, therefore, whose wife will the woman be? For the seven had her as wife."

rsv@Luke:20:34 @ And Jesus said to them, "The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage;

rsv@Luke:20:35 @ but those who are accounted worthy to attain to that age and to the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage,

rsv@Luke:20:36 @ for they cannot die any more, because they are equal to angels and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.

rsv@Luke:20:37 @ But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the passage about the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.

rsv@Luke:20:38 @ Now he is not God of the dead, but of the living; for all live to him."

rsv@Luke:20:42 @ For David himself says in the Book of Psalms, `The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand,

rsv@Luke:20:45 @ And in the hearing of all the people he said to his disciples,

rsv@Luke:20:46 @ "Beware of the scribes, who like to go about in long robes, and love salutations in the market places and the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at feasts,

rsv@Luke:21:1 @ He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury;

rsv@Luke:21:2 @ and he saw a poor widow put in two copper coins.

rsv@Luke:21:3 @ And he said, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them;

rsv@Luke:21:4 @ for they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all the living that she had."

rsv@Luke:21:5 @ And as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorned with noble stones and offerings, he said,

rsv@Luke:21:6 @ "As for these things which you see, the days will come when there shall not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down."

rsv@Luke:21:8 @ And he said, "Take heed that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name, saying, `I am he!' and, `The time is at hand!' Do not go after them.

rsv@Luke:21:10 @ Then he said to them, "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom;

rsv@Luke:21:11 @ there will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences; and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven.

rsv@Luke:21:12 @ But before all this they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name's sake.

rsv@Luke:21:14 @ Settle it therefore in your minds, not to meditate beforehand how to answer;

rsv@Luke:21:16 @ You will be delivered up even by parents and brothers and kinsmen and friends, and some of you they will put to death;

rsv@Luke:21:19 @ By your endurance you will gain your lives.

rsv@Luke:21:21 @ Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, and let those who are inside the city depart, and let not those who are out in the country enter it;

rsv@Luke:21:23 @ Alas for those who are with child and for those who give suck in those days! For great distress shall be upon the earth and wrath upon this people;

rsv@Luke:21:25 @ "And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and upon the earth distress of nations in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and the waves,

rsv@Luke:21:26 @ men fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

rsv@Luke:21:27 @ And then they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

rsv@Luke:21:28 @ Now when these things begin to take place, look up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near."

rsv@Luke:21:30 @ as soon as they come out in leaf, you see for yourselves and know that the summer is already near.

rsv@Luke:21:31 @ So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near.

rsv@Luke:21:36 @ But watch at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that will take place, and to stand before the Son of man."

rsv@Luke:21:37 @ And every day he was teaching in the temple, but at night he went out and lodged on the mount called Olivet.

rsv@Luke:21:38 @ And early in the morning all the people came to him in the temple to hear him.

rsv@Luke:22:2 @ And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to put him to death; for they feared the people.

rsv@Luke:22:3 @ Then Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve;

rsv@Luke:22:6 @ So he agreed, and sought an opportunity to betray him to them in the absence of the multitude.

rsv@Luke:22:8 @ So Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, "Go and prepare the passover for us, that we may eat it."

rsv@Luke:22:10 @ He said to them, "Behold, when you have entered the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you; follow him into the house which he enters,

rsv@Luke:22:16 @ for I tell you I shall not eat it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God."

rsv@Luke:22:18 @ for I tell you that from now on I shall not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes."

rsv@Luke:22:19 @ And he took bread, and when he had 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."

rsv@Luke:22:20 @ And likewise the cup after supper, saying, "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.

rsv@Luke:22:22 @ For the Son of man goes as it has been determined; but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed!"

rsv@Luke:22:25 @ And he said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and those in authority over them are called benefactors.

rsv@Luke:22:28 @ "You are those who have continued with me in my trials;

rsv@Luke:22:29 @ and I assign to you, as my Father assigned to me, a kingdom,

rsv@Luke:22:30 @ that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

rsv@Luke:22:32 @ but I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail; and when you have turned again, strengthen your brethren."

rsv@Luke:22:35 @ And he said to them, "When I sent you out with no purse or bag or sandals, did you lack anything?" They said, "Nothing."

rsv@Luke:22:37 @ For I tell you that this scripture must be fulfilled in me, `And he was reckoned with transgressors'; for what is written about me has its fulfilment."

rsv@Luke:22:40 @ And when he came to the place he said to them, "Pray that you may not enter into temptation."

rsv@Luke:22:42 @ "Father, if thou art willing, remove this cup from me; nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done."

rsv@Luke:22:43 @ And when he rose from prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow,

rsv@Luke:22:44 @ and he said to them, "Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation."

rsv@Luke:22:45 @ While he was still speaking, there came a crowd, and the man called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He drew near to Jesus to kiss him;

rsv@Luke:22:50 @ Then Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders, who had come out against him, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

rsv@Luke:22:51 @ When I was with you day after day in the temple, you did not lay hands on me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness."

rsv@Luke:22:52 @ Then they seized him and led him away, bringing him into the high priest's house. Peter followed at a distance;

rsv@Luke:22:53 @ and when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat among them.

rsv@Luke:22:54 @ Then a maid, seeing him as he sat in the light and gazing at him, said, "This man also was with him."

rsv@Luke:22:55 @ But he denied it, saying, "Woman, I do not know him."

rsv@Luke:22:57 @ And after an interval of about an hour still another insisted, saying, "Certainly this man also was with him; for he is a Galilean."

rsv@Luke:22:58 @ But Peter said, "Man, I do not know what you are saying." And immediately, while he was still speaking, the cock crowed.

rsv@Luke:22:61 @ Now the men who were holding Jesus mocked him and beat him;

rsv@Luke:22:62 @ they also blindfolded him and asked him, "Prophesy! Who is it that struck you?"

rsv@Luke:22:63 @ And they spoke many other words against him, reviling him.

rsv@Luke:23:2 @ And they began to accuse him, saying, "We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding us to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ a king."

rsv@Luke:23:3 @ And Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" And he answered him, "You have said so."

rsv@Luke:23:4 @ And Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, "I find no crime in this man."

rsv@Luke:23:5 @ But they were urgent, saying, "He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, from Galilee even to this place."

rsv@Luke:23:7 @ And when he learned that he belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him over to Herod, who was himself in Jerusalem at that time.

rsv@Luke:23:8 @ When Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, for he had long desired to see him, because he had heard about him, and he was hoping to see some sign done by him.

rsv@Luke:23:10 @ The chief priests and the scribes stood by, vehemently accusing him.

rsv@Luke:23:11 @ And Herod with his soldiers treated him with contempt and mocked him; then, arraying him in gorgeous apparel, he sent him back to Pilate.

rsv@Luke:23:14 @ and said to them, "You brought me this man as one who was perverting the people; and after examining him before you, behold, I did not find this man guilty of any of your charges against him;

rsv@Luke:23:15 @ neither did Herod, for he sent him back to us. Behold, nothing deserving death has been done by him;

rsv@Luke:23:18 @ a man who had been thrown into prison for an insurrection started in the city, and for murder.

rsv@Luke:23:19 @ Pilate addressed them once more, desiring to release Jesus;

rsv@Luke:23:21 @ A third time he said to them, "Why, what evil has he done? I have found in him no crime deserving death; I will therefore chastise him and release him."

rsv@Luke:23:22 @ But they were urgent, demanding with loud cries that he should be crucified. And their voices prevailed.

rsv@Luke:23:24 @ He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, whom they asked for; but Jesus he delivered up to their will.

rsv@Luke:23:25 @ And as they led him away, they seized one Simon of Cyre'ne, who was coming in from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it behind Jesus.

rsv@Luke:23:27 @ But Jesus turning to them said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

rsv@Luke:23:28 @ For behold, the days are coming when they will say, `Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never gave suck!'

rsv@Luke:23:29 @ Then they will begin to say to the mountains, `Fall on us'; and to the hills, `Cover us.'

rsv@Luke:23:31 @ Two others also, who were criminals, were led away to be put to death with him.

rsv@Luke:23:32 @ And when they came to the place which is called The Skull, there they crucified him, and the criminals, one on the right and one on the left.

rsv@Luke:23:34 @ And the people stood by, watching; but the rulers scoffed at him, saying, "He saved others; let him save himself, if he is the Christ of God, his Chosen One!"

rsv@Luke:23:35 @ The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him vinegar,

rsv@Luke:23:36 @ and saying, "If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!"

rsv@Luke:23:37 @ There was also an inscription over him, "This is the King of the Jews."

rsv@Luke:23:38 @ One of the criminals who were hanged railed at him, saying, "Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us!"

rsv@Luke:23:39 @ But the other rebuked him, saying, "Do you not fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation?

rsv@Luke:23:40 @ And we indeed justly; for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong."

rsv@Luke:23:41 @ And he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom."

rsv@Luke:23:42 @ And he said to him, "Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise."

rsv@Luke:23:43 @ It was now about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour,

rsv@Luke:23:44 @ while the sun's light failed; and the curtain of the temple was torn in two.

rsv@Luke:23:45 @ Then Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit!" And having said this he breathed his last.

rsv@Luke:23:46 @ Now when the centurion saw what had taken place, he praised God, and said, "Certainly this man was innocent!"

rsv@Luke:23:47 @ And all the multitudes who assembled to see the sight, when they saw what had taken place, returned home beating their breasts.

rsv@Luke:23:48 @ And all his acquaintances and the women who had followed him from Galilee stood at a distance and saw these things.

rsv@Luke:23:50 @ who had not consented to their purpose and deed, and he was looking for the kingdom of God.

rsv@Luke:23:52 @ Then he took it down and wrapped it in a linen shroud, and laid him in a rock-hewn tomb, where no one had ever yet been laid.

rsv@Luke:23:53 @ It was the day of Preparation, and the sabbath was beginning.

rsv@Luke:23:55 @ then they returned, and prepared spices and ointments. On the sabbath they rested according to the commandment.

rsv@Luke:24:1 @ But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices which they had prepared.

rsv@Luke:24:3 @ but when they went in they did not find the body.

rsv@Luke:24:4 @ While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel;

rsv@Luke:24:5 @ and as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, "Why do you seek the living among the dead?

rsv@Luke:24:6 @ Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee,

rsv@Luke:24:7 @ that the Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise."

rsv@Luke:24:9 @ and returning from the tomb they told all this to the eleven and to all the rest.

rsv@Luke:24:12 @ That very day two of them were going to a village named Emma'us, about seven miles from Jerusalem,

rsv@Luke:24:13 @ and talking with each other about all these things that had happened.

rsv@Luke:24:14 @ While they were talking and discussing together, Jesus himself drew near and went with them.

rsv@Luke:24:15 @ But their eyes were kept from recognizing him.

rsv@Luke:24:16 @ And he said to them, "What is this conversation which you are holding with each other as you walk?" And they stood still, looking sad.

rsv@Luke:24:17 @ Then one of them, named Cle'opas, answered him, "Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?"

rsv@Luke:24:18 @ And he said to them, "What things?" And they said to him, "Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

rsv@Luke:24:20 @ But we had hoped that he was the one to redeem Israel. Yes, and besides all this, it is now the third day since this happened.

rsv@Luke:24:21 @ Moreover, some women of our company amazed us. They were at the tomb early in the morning

rsv@Luke:24:22 @ and did not find his body; and they came back saying that they had even seen a vision of angels, who said that he was alive.

rsv@Luke:24:25 @ Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?"

rsv@Luke:24:26 @ And beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

rsv@Luke:24:27 @ So they drew near to the village to which they were going. He appeared to be going further,

rsv@Luke:24:28 @ but they constrained him, saying, "Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is now far spent." So he went in to stay with them.

rsv@Luke:24:31 @ They said to each other, "Did not our hearts burn within us while he talked to us on the road, while he opened to us the scriptures?"

rsv@Luke:24:33 @ who said, "The Lord has risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon!"

rsv@Luke:24:34 @ Then they told what had happened on the road, and how he was known to them in the breaking of the bread.

rsv@Luke:24:35 @ As they were saying this, Jesus himself stood among them.

rsv@Luke:24:37 @ And he said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do questionings rise in your hearts?

rsv@Luke:24:39 @ And while they still disbelieved for joy, and wondered, he said to them, "Have you anything here to eat?"

rsv@Luke:24:42 @ Then he said to them, "These are my words which I spoke to you, while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms must be fulfilled."

rsv@Luke:24:43 @ Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures,

rsv@Luke:24:45 @ and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem.

rsv@Luke:24:46 @ You are witnesses of these things.

rsv@Luke:24:47 @ And behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you; but stay in the city, until you are clothed with power from on high."

rsv@Luke:24:48 @ Then he led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up his hands he blessed them.

rsv@Luke:24:49 @ While he blessed them, he parted from them, and was carried up into heaven.

rsv@John:1:3 @ all things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made.

rsv@John:1:4 @ In him was life, and the life was the light of men.

rsv@John:1:5 @ The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

rsv@John:1:9 @ The true light that enlightens every man was coming into the world.

rsv@John:1:10 @ He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world knew him not.

rsv@John:1:12 @ But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God;

rsv@John:1:18 @ No one has ever seen God; the only Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has made him known.

rsv@John:1:23 @ He said, "I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, `Make straight the way of the Lord,' as the prophet Isaiah said."

rsv@John:1:25 @ They asked him, "Then why are you baptizing, if you are neither the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?"

rsv@John:1:28 @ This took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

rsv@John:1:29 @ The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

rsv@John:1:31 @ I myself did not know him; but for this I came baptizing with water, that he might be revealed to Israel."

rsv@John:1:32 @ And John bore witness, "I saw the Spirit descend as a dove from heaven, and it remained on him.

rsv@John:1:33 @ I myself did not know him; but he who sent me to baptize with water said to me, `He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, this is he who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.'

rsv@John:1:35 @ The next day again John was standing with two of his disciples;

rsv@John:1:38 @ Jesus turned, and saw them following, and said to them, "What do you seek?" And they said to him, "Rabbi" (which means Teacher), "where are you staying?"

rsv@John:1:39 @ He said to them, "Come and see." They came and saw where he was staying; and they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

rsv@John:1:45 @ Philip found Nathan'a-el, and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses in the law and also the prophets wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."

rsv@John:1:46 @ Nathan'a-el said to him, "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" Philip said to him, "Come and see."

rsv@John:1:47 @ Jesus saw Nathan'a-el coming to him, and said of him, "Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!"

rsv@John:1:49 @ Nathan'a-el answered him, "Rabbi, you are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!"

rsv@John:1:50 @ Jesus answered him, "Because I said to you, I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You shall see greater things than these."

rsv@John:1:51 @ And he said to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man."

rsv@John:2:1 @ On the third day there was a marriage at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there;

rsv@John:2:2 @ Jesus also was invited to the marriage, with his disciples.

rsv@John:2:3 @ When the wine failed, the mother of Jesus said to him, "They have no wine."

rsv@John:2:6 @ Now six stone jars were standing there, for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons.

rsv@John:2:9 @ When the steward of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the steward of the feast called the bridegroom

rsv@John:2:10 @ and said to him, "Every man serves the good wine first; and when men have drunk freely, then the poor wine; but you have kept the good wine until now."

rsv@John:2:11 @ This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

rsv@John:2:14 @ In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers at their business.

rsv@John:2:15 @ And making a whip of cords, he drove them all, with the sheep and oxen, out of the temple; and he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables.

rsv@John:2:16 @ And he told those who sold the pigeons, "Take these things away; you shall not make my Father's house a house of trade."

rsv@John:2:18 @ The Jews then said to him, "What sign have you to show us for doing this?"

rsv@John:2:19 @ Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."

rsv@John:2:20 @ The Jews then said, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?"

rsv@John:2:23 @ Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover feast, many believed in his name when they saw the signs which he did;

rsv@John:2:25 @ because he knew all men and needed no one to bear witness of man; for he himself knew what was in man.

rsv@John:3:3 @ Jesus answered him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born anew, he cannot see the kingdom of God."

rsv@John:3:4 @ Nicode'mus said to him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?"

rsv@John:3:5 @ Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

rsv@John:3:8 @ The wind blows where it wills, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know whence it comes or whither it goes; so it is with every one who is born of the Spirit."

rsv@John:3:12 @ If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things?

rsv@John:3:13 @ No one has ascended into heaven but he who descended from heaven, the Son of man.

rsv@John:3:14 @ And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of man be lifted up,

rsv@John:3:15 @ that whoever believes in him may have eternal life."

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

rsv@John:3:17 @ For God sent the Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.

rsv@John:3:18 @ He who believes in him is not condemned; he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

rsv@John:3:19 @ And this is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

rsv@John:3:21 @ But he who does what is true comes to the light, that it may be clearly seen that his deeds have been wrought in God.

rsv@John:3:22 @ After this Jesus and his disciples went into the land of Judea; there he remained with them and baptized.

rsv@John:3:23 @ John also was baptizing at Ae'non near Salim, because there was much water there; and people came and were baptized.

rsv@John:3:24 @ For John had not yet been put in prison.

rsv@John:3:25 @ Now a discussion arose between John's disciples and a Jew over purifying.

rsv@John:3:26 @ And they came to John, and said to him, "Rabbi, he who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you bore witness, here he is, baptizing, and all are going to him."

rsv@John:3:27 @ John answered, "No one can receive anything except what is given him from heaven.

rsv@John:3:29 @ He who has the bride is the bridegroom; the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice; therefore this joy of mine is now full.

rsv@John:3:30 @ He must increase, but I must decrease."

rsv@John:3:35 @ the Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.

rsv@John:3:36 @ He who believes in the Son has eternal life; he who does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God rests upon him.

rsv@John:4:1 @ Now when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John

rsv@John:4:3 @ he left Judea and departed again to Galilee.

rsv@John:4:7 @ There came a woman of Samar'ia to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give me a drink."

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

rsv@John:4:9 @ The Samaritan woman said to him, "How is it that you, a Jew, ask a drink of me, a woman of Samar'ia?" For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

rsv@John:4:10 @ Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, `Give me a drink,' you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water."

rsv@John:4:11 @ The woman said to him, "Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep; where do you get that living water?

rsv@John:4:13 @ Jesus said to her, "Every one who drinks of this water will thirst again,

rsv@John:4:14 @ but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst; the water that I shall give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life."

rsv@John:4:17 @ The woman answered him, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her, "You are right in saying, `I have no husband';

rsv@John:4:20 @ Our fathers worshiped on this mountain; and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship."

rsv@John:4:21 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

rsv@John:4:23 @ But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for such the Father seeks to worship him.

rsv@John:4:24 @ God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."

rsv@John:4:25 @ The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ); when he comes, he will show us all things."

rsv@John:4:27 @ Just then his disciples came. They marveled that he was talking with a woman, but none said, "What do you wish?" or, "Why are you talking with her?"

rsv@John:4:28 @ So the woman left her water jar, and went away into the city, and said to the people,

rsv@John:4:30 @ They went out of the city and were coming to him.

rsv@John:4:31 @ Meanwhile the disciples besought him, saying, "Rabbi, eat."

rsv@John:4:37 @ For here the saying holds true, `One sows and another reaps.'

rsv@John:4:38 @ I sent you to reap that for which you did not labor; others have labored, and you have entered into their labor."

rsv@John:4:39 @ Many Samaritans from that city believed in him because of the woman's testimony, "He told me all that I ever did."

rsv@John:4:42 @ They said to the woman, "It is no longer because of your words that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world."

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

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

rsv@John:4:46 @ So he came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And at Caper'na-um there was an official whose son was ill.

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

rsv@John:4:51 @ As he was going down, his servants met him and told him that his son was living.

rsv@John:5:2 @ Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, in Hebrew called Beth-za'tha, which has five porticoes.

rsv@John:5:3 @ In these lay a multitude of invalids, blind, lame, paralyzed.

rsv@John:5:5 @ When Jesus saw him and knew that he had been lying there a long time, he said to him, "Do you want to be healed?"

rsv@John:5:6 @ The sick man answered him, "Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is troubled, and while I am going another steps down before me."

rsv@John:5:12 @ Now the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, as there was a crowd in the place.

rsv@John:5:13 @ Afterward, Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, "See, you are well! Sin no more, that nothing worse befall you."

rsv@John:5:16 @ But Jesus answered them, "My Father is working still, and I am working."

rsv@John:5:17 @ This was why the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath but also called God his Father, making himself equal with God.

rsv@John:5:18 @ Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever he does, that the Son does likewise.

rsv@John:5:19 @ For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all that he himself is doing; and greater works than these will he show him, that you may marvel.

rsv@John:5:23 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me, has eternal life; he does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.

rsv@John:5:24 @ "Truly, truly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.

rsv@John:5:25 @ For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself,

rsv@John:5:27 @ Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice

rsv@John:5:29 @ "I can do nothing on my own authority; as I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me.

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

rsv@John:5:35 @ But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father has granted me to accomplish, these very works which I am doing, bear me witness that the Father has sent me.

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

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

rsv@John:5:41 @ But I know that you have not the love of God within you.

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

rsv@John:5:44 @ Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; it is Moses who accuses you, on whom you set your hope.

rsv@John:5:46 @ But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?"

rsv@John:6:3 @ Jesus went up on the mountain, and there sat down with his disciples.

rsv@John:6:5 @ Lifting up his eyes, then, and seeing that a multitude was coming to him, Jesus said to Philip, "How are we to buy bread, so that these people may eat?"

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

rsv@John:6:12 @ And when they had eaten their fill, he told his disciples, "Gather up the fragments left over, that nothing may be lost."

rsv@John:6:14 @ When the people saw the sign which he had done, they said, "This is indeed the prophet who is to come into the world!"

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

rsv@John:6:16 @ When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea,

rsv@John:6:17 @ got into a boat, and started across the sea to Caper'na-um. It was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.

rsv@John:6:18 @ The sea rose because a strong wind was blowing.

rsv@John:6:19 @ When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat. They were frightened,

rsv@John:6:21 @ Then they were glad to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.

rsv@John:6:22 @ On the next day the people who remained on the other side of the sea saw that there had been only one boat there, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with his disciples, but that his disciples had gone away alone.

rsv@John:6:24 @ So when the people saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they themselves got into the boats and went to Caper'na-um, seeking Jesus.

rsv@John:6:28 @ Then they said to him, "What must we do, to be doing the works of God?"

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

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

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

rsv@John:6:39 @ and this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day.

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

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

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

rsv@John:6:51 @ I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if any one eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh."

rsv@John:6:52 @ The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?"

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

rsv@John:6:54 @ he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

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

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

rsv@John:6:57 @ As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me.

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

rsv@John:6:60 @ Many of his disciples, when they heard it, said, "This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?"

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

rsv@John:6:62 @ Then what if you were to see the Son of man ascending where he was before?

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

rsv@John:7:3 @ So his brothers said to him, "Leave here and go to Judea, that your disciples may see the works you are doing.

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

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

rsv@John:7:8 @ Go to the feast yourselves; I am not going up to this feast, for my time has not yet fully come."

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

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

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

rsv@John:7:12 @ And there was much muttering about him among the people. While some said, "He is a good man," others said, "No, he is leading the people astray."

rsv@John:7:14 @ About the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

rsv@John:7:15 @ The Jews marveled at it, saying, "How is it that this man has learning, when he has never studied?"

rsv@John:7:16 @ So Jesus answered them, "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me;

rsv@John:7:17 @ if any man's will is to do his will, he shall know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own authority.

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

rsv@John:7:20 @ The people answered, "You have a demon! Who is seeking to kill you?"

rsv@John:7:26 @ And here he is, speaking openly, and they say nothing to him! Can it be that the authorities really know that this is the Christ?

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

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

rsv@John:7:32 @ The Pharisees heard the crowd thus muttering about him, and the chief priests and Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.

rsv@John:7:34 @ you will seek me and you will not find me; where I am you cannot come."

rsv@John:7:35 @ The Jews said to one another, "Where does this man intend to go that we shall not find him? Does he intend to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

rsv@John:7:36 @ What does he mean by saying, `You will seek me and you will not find me,' and, `Where I am you cannot come'?"

rsv@John:7:37 @ On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and proclaimed, "If any one thirst, let him come to me and drink.

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

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

rsv@John:7:45 @ The officers then went back to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, "Why did you not bring him?"

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

rsv@John:7:51 @ "Does our law judge a man without first giving him a hearing and learning what he does?"

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

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

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

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

rsv@John:8:6 @ This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground.

rsv@John:8:7 @ And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her."

rsv@John:8:8 @ And once more he bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground.

rsv@John:8:9 @ But when they heard it, they went away, one by one, beginning with the eldest, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him.

rsv@John:8:11 @ She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you; go, and do not sin again."

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

rsv@John:8:13 @ The Pharisees then said to him, "You are bearing witness to yourself; your testimony is not true."

rsv@John:8:14 @ Jesus answered, "Even if I do bear witness to myself, my testimony is true, for I know whence I have come and whither I am going, but you do not know whence I come or whither I am going.

rsv@John:8:15 @ You judge according to the flesh, I judge no one.

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

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

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

rsv@John:8:22 @ Then said the Jews, "Will he kill himself, since he says, `Where I am going, you cannot come'?"

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

rsv@John:8:25 @ They said to him, "Who are you?" Jesus said to them, "Even what I have told you from the beginning.

rsv@John:8:28 @ So Jesus said, "When you have lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own authority but speak thus as the Father taught me.

rsv@John:8:29 @ And he who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what is pleasing to him."

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

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

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

rsv@John:8:34 @ Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, every one who commits sin is a slave to sin.

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

rsv@John:8:36 @ So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.

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

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

rsv@John:8:46 @ Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me?

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

rsv@John:8:54 @ Jesus answered, "If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing; it is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say that he is your God.

rsv@John:9:1 @ As he passed by, he saw a man blind from his birth.

rsv@John:9:2 @ And his disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"

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

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

rsv@John:9:6 @ As he said this, he spat on the ground and made clay of the spittle and anointed the man's eyes with the clay,

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

rsv@John:9:11 @ He answered, "The man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and said to me, `Go to Silo'am and wash'; so I went and washed and received my sight."

rsv@John:9:13 @ They brought to the Pharisees the man who had formerly been blind.

rsv@John:9:15 @ The Pharisees again asked him how he had received his sight. And he said to them, "He put clay on my eyes, and I washed, and I see."

rsv@John:9:16 @ Some of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, for he does not keep the sabbath." But others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" There was a division among them.

rsv@John:9:17 @ So they again said to the blind man, "What do you say about him, since he has opened your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."

rsv@John:9:18 @ The Jews did not believe that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of the man who had received his sight,

rsv@John:9:19 @ and asked them, "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"

rsv@John:9:20 @ His parents answered, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

rsv@John:9:24 @ So for the second time they called the man who had been blind, and said to him, "Give God the praise; we know that this man is a sinner."

rsv@John:9:25 @ He answered, "Whether he is a sinner, I do not know; one thing I know, that though I was blind, now I see."

rsv@John:9:27 @ He answered them, "I have told you already, and you would not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you too want to become his disciples?"

rsv@John:9:28 @ And they reviled him, saying, "You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

rsv@John:9:31 @ We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if any one is a worshiper of God and does his will, God listens to him.

rsv@John:9:32 @ Never since the world began has it been heard that any one opened the eyes of a man born blind.

rsv@John:9:33 @ If this man were not from God, he could do nothing."

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

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

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

rsv@John:9:39 @ Jesus said, "For judgment I came into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind."

rsv@John:9:40 @ Some of the Pharisees near him heard this, and they said to him, "Are we also blind?"

rsv@John:9:41 @ Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no guilt; but now that you say, `We see,' your guilt remains.

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

rsv@John:10:6 @ This figure Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.

rsv@John:10:7 @ So Jesus again said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

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

rsv@John:10:12 @ He who is a hireling and not a shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf snatches them and scatters them.

rsv@John:10:13 @ He flees because he is a hireling and cares nothing for the sheep.

rsv@John:10:16 @ And I have other sheep, that are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will heed my voice. So there shall be one flock, one shepherd.

rsv@John:10:17 @ For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.

rsv@John:10:18 @ No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again; this charge I have received from my Father."

rsv@John:10:19 @ There was again a division among the Jews because of these words.

rsv@John:10:21 @ Others said, "These are not the sayings of one who has a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?"

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

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

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

rsv@John:10:31 @ The Jews took up stones again to stone him.

rsv@John:10:33 @ The Jews answered him, "It is not for a good work that we stone you but for blasphemy; because you, being a man, make yourself God."

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

rsv@John:10:36 @ do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, `You are blaspheming,' because I said, `I am the Son of God'?

rsv@John:10:37 @ If I am not doing the works of my Father, then do not believe me;

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

rsv@John:10:39 @ Again they tried to arrest him, but he escaped from their hands.

rsv@John:10:40 @ He went away again across the Jordan to the place where John at first baptized, and there he remained.

rsv@John:10:41 @ And many came to him; and they said, "John did no sign, but everything that John said about this man was true."

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

rsv@John:11:1 @ Now a certain man was ill, Laz'arus of Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.

rsv@John:11:2 @ It was Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Laz'arus was ill.

rsv@John:11:3 @ So the sisters sent to him, saying, "Lord, he whom you love is ill."

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

rsv@John:11:7 @ Then after this he said to the disciples, "Let us go into Judea again."

rsv@John:11:8 @ The disciples said to him, "Rabbi, the Jews were but now seeking to stone you, and are you going there again?"

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

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

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

rsv@John:11:14 @ Then Jesus told them plainly, "Laz'arus is dead;

rsv@John:11:16 @ Thomas, called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, "Let us also go, that we may die with him."

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

rsv@John:11:19 @ and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother.

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

rsv@John:11:23 @ Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."

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

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

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

rsv@John:11:27 @ She said to him, "Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, he who is coming into the world."

rsv@John:11:28 @ When she had said this, she went and called her sister Mary, saying quietly, "The Teacher is here and is calling for you."

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

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

rsv@John:11:32 @ Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was and saw him, fell at his feet, saying to him, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."

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

rsv@John:11:37 @ But some of them said, "Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?"

rsv@John:11:38 @ Then Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb; it was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

rsv@John:11:42 @ I knew that thou hearest me always, but I have said this on account of the people standing by, that they may believe that thou didst send me."

rsv@John:11:44 @ The dead man came out, his hands and feet bound with bandages, and his face wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go."

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

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

rsv@John:11:49 @ But one of them, Ca'iaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing at all;

rsv@John:11:51 @ He did not say this of his own accord, but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation,

rsv@John:11:52 @ and not for the nation only, but to gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad.

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

rsv@John:12:3 @ Mary took a pound of costly ointment 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 ointment.

rsv@John:12:5 @ "Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?"

rsv@John:12:6 @ This he said, not that he cared for the poor but because he was a thief, and as he had the money box he used to take what was put into it.

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

rsv@John:12:12 @ The next day a great crowd who had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.

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

rsv@John:12:15 @ "Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your king is coming, sitting on an ass's colt!"

rsv@John:12:19 @ The Pharisees then said to one another, "You see that you can do nothing; look, the world has gone after him."

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

rsv@John:12:24 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.

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

rsv@John:12:28 @ Father, glorify thy name." Then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again."

rsv@John:12:29 @ The crowd standing by heard it and said that it had thundered. Others said, "An angel has spoken to him."

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

rsv@John:12:34 @ The crowd answered him, "We have heard from the law that the Christ remains for ever. How can you say that the Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?"

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

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

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

rsv@John:12:39 @ Therefore they could not believe. For Isaiah again said,

rsv@John:12:40 @ "He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes and perceive with their heart, and turn for me to heal them."

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

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

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

rsv@John:12:47 @ If any one 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.

rsv@John:12:48 @ He who rejects me and does not receive my sayings has a judge; the word that I have spoken will be his judge on the last day.

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

rsv@John:13:2 @ And during supper, when the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him,

rsv@John:13:3 @ Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he had come from God and was going to God,

rsv@John:13:5 @ Then he poured water into a basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which he was girded.

rsv@John:13:7 @ Jesus answered him, "What I am doing you do not know now, but afterward you will understand."

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

rsv@John:13:17 @ If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.

rsv@John:13:18 @ I am not speaking of you all; I know whom I have chosen; it is that the scripture may be fulfilled, `He who ate my bread has lifted his heel against me.'

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

rsv@John:13:22 @ The disciples looked at one another, uncertain of whom he spoke.

rsv@John:13:23 @ One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was lying close to the breast of Jesus;

rsv@John:13:25 @ So lying thus, close to the breast of Jesus, he said to him, "Lord, who is it?"

rsv@John:13:27 @ Then after the morsel, Satan entered into him. Jesus said to him, "What you are going to do, do quickly."

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

rsv@John:13:30 @ So, after receiving the morsel, he immediately went out; and it was night.

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

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

rsv@John:13:33 @ Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You will seek me; and as I said to the Jews so now I say to you, `Where I am going you cannot come.'

rsv@John:13:36 @ Simon Peter said to him, "Lord, where are you going?" Jesus answered, "Where I am going you cannot follow me now; but you shall follow afterward."

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

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

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

rsv@John:14:4 @ And you know the way where I am going."

rsv@John:14:5 @ Thomas said to him, "Lord, we do not know where you are going; how can we know the way?"

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

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

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

rsv@John:14:24 @ 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.

rsv@John:18:13 @ First they led him to Annas; for he was the father-in-law of Ca'iaphas, who was high priest that year.

rsv@John:18:16 @ while Peter stood outside at the door. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the maid who kept the door, and brought Peter in.

rsv@John:18:18 @ Now the servants and officers had made a charcoal fire, because it was cold, and they were standing and warming themselves; Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself.

rsv@John:18:19 @ The high priest then questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching.

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

rsv@John:18:22 @ When he had said this, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, "Is that how you answer the high priest?"

rsv@John:18:25 @ Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said to him, "Are not you also one of his disciples?" He denied it and said, "I am not."

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

rsv@John:18:27 @ Peter again denied it; and at once the cock crowed.

rsv@John:18:29 @ So Pilate went out to them and said, "What accusation do you bring against this man?"

rsv@John:18:33 @ Pilate entered the praetorium again and called Jesus, and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"

rsv@John:18:36 @ Jesus answered, "My kingship is not of this world; if my kingship were of this world, my servants would fight, that I might not be handed over to the Jews; but my kingship is not from the world."

rsv@John:18:37 @ Pilate said to him, "So you are a king?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this I was born, and for this I have come into the world, to bear witness to the truth. Every one who is of the truth hears my voice."

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

rsv@John:18:39 @ But you have a custom that I should release one man for you at the Passover; will you have me release for you the King of the Jews?"

rsv@John:18:40 @ They cried out again, "Not this man, but Barab'bas!" Now Barab'bas was a robber.

rsv@John:19:2 @ And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and arrayed him in a purple robe;

rsv@John:19:3 @ they came up to him, saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!" and struck him with their hands.

rsv@John:19:4 @ Pilate went out again, and said to them, "See, I am bringing him out to you, that you may know that I find no crime in him."

rsv@John:19:5 @ So Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate said to them, "Behold the man!"

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

rsv@John:19:9 @ he entered the praetorium again and said to Jesus, "Where are you from?" But Jesus gave no answer.

rsv@John:19:11 @ Jesus answered him, "You would have no power over me unless it had been given you from above; therefore he who delivered me to you has the greater sin."

rsv@John:19:12 @ Upon this Pilate sought to release him, but the Jews cried out, "If you release this man, you are not Caesar's friend; every one who makes himself a king sets himself against Caesar."

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

rsv@John:19:14 @ Now it was the day of Preparation of the Passover; it was about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, "Behold your King!"

rsv@John:19:15 @ They cried out, "Away with him, away with him, crucify him!" Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your King?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar."

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

rsv@John:19:19 @ Pilate also wrote a title and put it on the cross; it read, "Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews."

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

rsv@John:19:21 @ The chief priests of the Jews then said to Pilate, "Do not write, `The King of the Jews,' but, `This man said, I am King of the Jews.'"

rsv@John:19:24 @ so they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to see whose it shall be." This was to fulfil the scripture, "They parted my garments among them, and for my clothing they cast lots."

rsv@John:19:25 @ So the soldiers did this. But standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Mag'dalene.

rsv@John:19:26 @ When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing near, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son!"

rsv@John:19:28 @ After this Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfil the scripture), "I thirst."

rsv@John:19:29 @ A bowl full of vinegar stood there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop and held it to his mouth.

rsv@John:19:30 @ When Jesus had received the vinegar, he said, "It is finished"; and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

rsv@John:19:31 @ Since it was the day of Preparation, in order to prevent the bodies from remaining on the cross on the sabbath (for that sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

rsv@John:19:36 @ For these things took place that the scripture might be fulfilled, "Not a bone of him shall be broken."

rsv@John:19:37 @ And again another scripture says, "They shall look on him whom they have pierced."

rsv@John:19:39 @ Nicode'mus also, who had at first come to him by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds' weight.

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

rsv@John:19:41 @ Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb where no one had ever been laid.

rsv@John:20:5 @ and stooping to look in, he saw the linen cloths lying there, but he did not go in.

rsv@John:20:6 @ Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb; he saw the linen cloths lying,

rsv@John:20:7 @ and the napkin, which had been on his head, not lying with the linen cloths but rolled up in a place by itself.

rsv@John:20:8 @ Then the other disciple, who reached the tomb first, also went in, and he saw and believed;

rsv@John:20:11 @ But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb;

rsv@John:20:12 @ and she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet.

rsv@John:20:13 @ They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them, "Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him."

rsv@John:20:14 @ Saying this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus.

rsv@John:20:15 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom do you seek?" 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."

rsv@John:20:16 @ Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and said to him in Hebrew, "Rab-bo'ni!" (which means Teacher).

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

rsv@John:20:18 @ Mary Mag'dalene went and said to the disciples, "I have seen the Lord"; and she told them that he had said these things to her.

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

rsv@John:20:21 @ Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you."

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

rsv@John:20:24 @ Now Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came.

rsv@John:20:25 @ So the other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord." But he said to them, "Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails, and place my finger in the mark of the nails, and place my hand in his side, I will not believe."

rsv@John:20:26 @ Eight days later, his disciples were again in the house, and Thomas was with them. The doors were shut, but Jesus came and stood among them, and said, "Peace be with you."

rsv@John:20:27 @ Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side; do not be faithless, but believing."

rsv@John:20:30 @ Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book;

rsv@John:20:31 @ but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.

rsv@John:21:1 @ After this Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tibe'ri-as; and he revealed himself in this way.

rsv@John:21:2 @ Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathan'a-el of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zeb'edee, and two others of his disciples were together.

rsv@John:21:3 @ Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We will go with you." They went out and got into the boat; but that night they caught nothing.

rsv@John:21:4 @ Just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the beach; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.

rsv@John:21:6 @ He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, for the quantity of fish.

rsv@John:21:7 @ That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his clothes, for he was stripped for work, and sprang into the sea.

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

rsv@John:21:9 @ When they got out on land, they saw a charcoal fire there, with fish lying on it, and bread.

rsv@John:21:10 @ Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish that you have just caught."

rsv@John:21:15 @ 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, "Feed my lambs."

rsv@John:21:17 @ 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 everything; you know that I love you." Jesus said to him, "Feed my sheep.

rsv@John:21:20 @ Peter turned and saw following them the disciple whom Jesus loved, who had lain close to his breast at the supper and had said, "Lord, who is it that is going to betray you?"

rsv@John:21:22 @ Jesus said to him, "If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? Follow me!"

rsv@John:21:23 @ The saying spread abroad among the brethren that this disciple was not to die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he was not to die, but, "If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you?"

rsv@John:21:24 @ This is the disciple who is bearing witness to these things, and who has written these things; and we know that his testimony is true.

rsv@John:21:25 @ But there are also many other things which Jesus did; were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.

rsv@Acts:1:1 @ In the first book, O The-oph'ilus, I have dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach,
