rsv@Isaiah:19:3 @ and the spirit of the Egyptians within them will be emptied out, and I will confound their plans; and they will consult the idols and the sorcerers, and the mediums and the wizards;

rsv@Isaiah:19:4 @ and I will give over the Egyptians into the hand of a hard master; and a fierce king will rule over them, says the Lord, the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Isaiah:19:16 @ In that day the Egyptians will be like women, and tremble with fear before the hand which the LORD of hosts shakes over them.

rsv@Isaiah:21:14 @ To the thirsty bring water, meet the fugitive with bread, O inhabitants of the land of Tema.

rsv@Isaiah:22:2 @ you who are full of shoutings, tumultuous city, exultant town? Your slain are not slain with the sword or dead in battle.

rsv@Isaiah:22:4 @ Therefore I said: "Look away from me, let me weep bitter tears; do not labor to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people."

rsv@Isaiah:22:5 @ For the Lord GOD of hosts has a day of tumult and trampling and confusion in the valley of vision, a battering down of walls and a shouting to the mountains.

rsv@Isaiah:22:10 @ and you counted the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.

rsv@Isaiah:22:13 @ and behold, joy and gladness, slaying oxen and killing sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine. "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die."

rsv@Isaiah:22:14 @ The LORD of hosts has revealed himself in my ears: "Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you till you die," says the Lord GOD of hosts.

rsv@Isaiah:22:16 @ What have you to do here and whom have you here, that you have hewn here a tomb for yourself, you who hew a tomb on the height, and carve a habitation for yourself in the rock?

rsv@Isaiah:22:19 @ I will thrust you from your office, and you will be cast down from your station.

rsv@Isaiah:23:2 @ Be still, O inhabitants of the coast, O merchants of Sidon; your messengers passed over the sea

rsv@Isaiah:23:3 @ and were on many waters; your revenue was the grain of Shihor, the harvest of the Nile; you were the merchant of the nations.

rsv@Isaiah:23:13 @ Behold the land of the Chalde'ans! This is the people; it was not Assyria. They destined Tyre for wild beasts. They erected their siegetowers, they razed her palaces, they made her a ruin.

rsv@Isaiah:24:5 @ The earth lies polluted under its inhabitants; for they have transgressed the laws, violated the statutes, broken the everlasting covenant.

rsv@Isaiah:24:8 @ The mirth of the timbrels is stilled, the noise of the jubilant has ceased, the mirth of the lyre is stilled.

rsv@Isaiah:24:11 @ There is an outcry in the streets for lack of wine; all joy has reached its eventide; the gladness of the earth is banished.

rsv@Isaiah:24:12 @ Desolation is left in the city, the gates are battered into ruins.

rsv@Isaiah:24:13 @ For thus it shall be in the midst of the earth among the nations, as when an olive tree is beaten, as at the gleaning when the vintage is done.

rsv@Isaiah:24:18 @ He who flees at the sound of the terror shall fall into the pit; and he who climbs out of the pit shall be caught in the snare. For the windows of heaven are opened, and the foundations of the earth tremble.

rsv@Isaiah:25:2 @ For thou hast made the city a heap, the fortified city a ruin; the palace of aliens is a city no more, it will never be rebuilt.

rsv@Isaiah:25:3 @ Therefore strong peoples will glorify thee; cities of ruthless nations will fear thee.

rsv@Isaiah:25:5 @ like heat in a dry place. Thou dost subdue the noise of the aliens; as heat by the shade of a cloud, so the song of the ruthless is stilled.

rsv@Isaiah:25:7 @ And he will destroy on this mountain the covering that is cast over all peoples, the veil that is spread over all nations.

rsv@Isaiah:25:9 @ It will be said on that day, "Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us. This is the LORD; we have waited for him; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation."

rsv@Isaiah:25:12 @ And the high fortifications of his walls he will bring down, lay low, and cast to the ground, even to the dust.

rsv@Isaiah:26:1 @ In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: "We have a strong city; he sets up salvation as walls and bulwarks.

rsv@Isaiah:26:2 @ Open the gates, that the righteous nation which keeps faith may enter in.

rsv@Isaiah:26:4 @ Trust in the LORD for ever, for the LORD GOD is an everlasting rock.

rsv@Isaiah:26:14 @ They are dead, they will not live; they are shades, they will not arise; to that end thou hast visited them with destruction and wiped out all remembrance of them.

rsv@Isaiah:26:15 @ But thou hast increased the nation, O LORD, thou hast increased the nation; thou art glorified; thou hast enlarged all the borders of the land.

rsv@Isaiah:26:17 @ Like a woman with child, who writhes and cries out in her pangs, when she is near her time, so were we because of thee, O LORD;

rsv@Isaiah:26:20 @ Come, my people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until the wrath is past.

rsv@Isaiah:27:1 @ In that day the LORD with his hard and great and strong sword will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent, Leviathan the twisting serpent, and he will slay the dragon that is in the sea.

rsv@Isaiah:27:5 @ Or let them lay hold of my protection, let them make peace with me, let them make peace with me."

rsv@Isaiah:27:10 @ For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness; there the calf grazes, there he lies down, and strips its branches.

rsv@Isaiah:28:6 @ and a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.

rsv@Isaiah:28:16 @ therefore thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, I am laying in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation: `He who believes will not be in haste.'

rsv@Isaiah:28:17 @ And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and waters will overwhelm the shelter."

rsv@Isaiah:28:22 @ Now therefore do not scoff, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord GOD of hosts upon the whole land.

rsv@Isaiah:28:24 @ Does he who plows for sowing plow continually? does he continually open and harrow his ground?

rsv@Isaiah:28:27 @ Dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, nor is a cart wheel rolled over cummin; but dill is beaten out with a stick, and cummin with a rod.

rsv@Isaiah:29:2 @ Yet I will distress Ariel, and there shall be moaning and lamentation, and she shall be to me like an Ariel.

rsv@Isaiah:29:5 @ But the multitude of your foes shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the ruthless like passing chaff. And in an instant, suddenly,

rsv@Isaiah:29:7 @ And the multitude of all the nations that fight against Ariel, all that fight against her and her stronghold and distress her, shall be like a dream, a vision of the night.

rsv@Isaiah:29:8 @ As when a hungry man dreams he is eating and awakes with his hunger not satisfied, or as when a thirsty man dreams he is drinking and awakes faint, with his thirst not quenched, so shall the multitude of all the nations be that fight against Mount Zion.

rsv@Isaiah:29:17 @ Is it not yet a very little while until Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be regarded as a forest?

rsv@Isaiah:29:23 @ For when he sees his children, the work of my hands, in his midst, they will sanctify my name; they will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and will stand in awe of the God of Israel.

rsv@Isaiah:29:24 @ And those who err in spirit will come to understanding, and those who murmur will accept instruction."

rsv@Isaiah:30:2 @ who set out to go down to Egypt, without asking for my counsel, to take refuge in the protection of Pharaoh, and to seek shelter in the shadow of Egypt!

rsv@Isaiah:30:3 @ Therefore shall the protection of Pharaoh turn to your shame, and the shelter in the shadow of Egypt to your humiliation.

rsv@Isaiah:30:7 @ For Egypt's help is worthless and empty, therefore I have called her "Rahab who sits still."

rsv@Isaiah:30:8 @ And now, go, write it before them on a tablet, and inscribe it in a book, that it may be for the time to come as a witness for ever.

rsv@Isaiah:30:9 @ For they are a rebellious people, lying sons, sons who will not hear the instruction of the LORD;

rsv@Isaiah:30:17 @ A thousand shall flee at the threat of one, at the threat of five you shall flee, till you are left like a flagstaff on the top of a mountain, like a signal on a hill.

rsv@Isaiah:30:18 @ Therefore the LORD waits to be gracious to you; therefore he exalts himself to show mercy to you. For the LORD is a God of justice; blessed are all those who wait for him.

rsv@Isaiah:30:20 @ And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet your Teacher will not hide himself any more, but your eyes shall see your Teacher.

rsv@Isaiah:30:24 @ and the oxen and the asses that till the ground will eat salted provender, which has been winnowed with shovel and fork.

rsv@Isaiah:30:27 @ Behold, the name of the LORD comes from far, burning with his anger, and in thick rising smoke; his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue is like a devouring fire;

rsv@Daniel:2:5 @ The king answered the Chalde'ans, "The word from me is sure: if you do not make known to me the dream and its interpretation, you shall be torn limb from limb, and your houses shall be laid in ruins.

rsv@Daniel:2:6 @ But if you show the dream and its interpretation, you shall receive from me gifts and rewards and great honor. Therefore show me the dream and its interpretation."

rsv@Daniel:2:36 @ "This was the dream; now we will tell the king its interpretation.

rsv@Daniel:2:45 @ just as you saw that a stone was cut from a mountain by no human hand, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold. A great God has made known to the king what shall be hereafter. The dream is certain, and its interpretation sure."

rsv@Daniel:4:36 @ At the same time my reason returned to me; and for the glory of my kingdom, my majesty and splendor returned to me. My counselors and my lords sought me, and I was established in my kingdom, and still more greatness was added to me.

rsv@Daniel:6:10 @ When Daniel knew that the document had been signed, he went to his house where he had windows in his upper chamber open toward Jerusalem; and he got down upon his knees three times a day and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as he had done previously.

rsv@Luke:21:34 @ "But take heed to yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a snare;

rsv@Luke:22:23 @ And they began to question one another, which of them it was that would do this.

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:22:44 @ 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:22:57 @ 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:22:59 @ And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, "Before the cock crows today, you will deny me three times."

rsv@Luke:22:69 @ And they said, "What further testimony do we need? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips."

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:23:4 @ 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:23:9 @ So he questioned him at some length; but he made no answer.

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:23:24 @ 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:23:26 @ And there followed him a great multitude of the people, and of women who bewailed and lamented him.

rsv@Luke:23:37 @ There was also an inscription over him, "This is the King of the Jews."

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:24:6 @ Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee,

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:24:37 @ 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:24:45 @ and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem.

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:24:51 @ and were continually in the temple blessing God.

rsv@John:1:7 @ He came for testimony, to bear witness to the light, that all might believe through him.

rsv@John:1:19 @ And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"

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:1:26 @ John answered them, "I baptize with water; but among you stands one whom you do not know,

rsv@John:1:27 @ even he who comes after me, the thong of whose sandal I am not worthy to untie."

rsv@John:1:28 @ This took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

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:1:33 @ 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:2:6 @ Now six stone jars were standing there, for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons.

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: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:3:11 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and bear witness to what we have seen; but you do not receive our testimony.

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:3:26 @ 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:3:32 @ He bears witness to what he has seen and heard, yet no one receives his testimony;

rsv@John:3:33 @ he who receives his testimony sets his seal to this, that God is true.

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:4:2 @ (although Jesus himself did not baptize, but only his disciples),

rsv@John:4:22 @ You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews.

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:4:44 @ For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

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:5:16 @ But Jesus answered them, "My Father is working still, and I am working."

rsv@John:5:28 @ and come forth, those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.

rsv@John:5:30 @ If I bear witness to myself, my testimony is not true;

rsv@John:5:31 @ there is another who bears witness to me, and I know that the testimony which he bears to me is true.

rsv@John:5:33 @ Not that the testimony which I receive is from man; but I say this that you may be saved.

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:5:46 @ But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?"

rsv@John:6:1 @ After this Jesus went to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, which is the Sea of Tiber'i-as.

rsv@John:6:2 @ And a multitude followed him, because they saw the signs which he did on those who were diseased.

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:6:23 @ However, boats from Tiber'i-as came near the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.

rsv@John:7:6 @ Jesus said to them, "My time has not yet come, but your time is always here.

rsv@John:7:7 @ The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify of it that its works are evil.

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:7:26 @ 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:7:48 @ Have any of the authorities or of the Pharisees believed in him?

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:8:13 @ 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:8:17 @ In your law it is written that the testimony of two men is true;

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

rsv@John:8:41 @ You do what your father did." They said to him, "We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God."

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:9:24 @ 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:10:22 @ It was the feast of the Dedication at Jerusalem;

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

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

rsv@John:11:39 @ Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Lord, by this time there will be an odor, for he has been dead four days."

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:11:50 @ you do not understand that it is expedient for you that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation should not perish."

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:12:15 @ "Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your king is coming, sitting on an ass's colt!"

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: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:13:38 @ Jesus answered, "Will you lay down your life for me? Truly, truly, I say to you, the cock will not crow, till you have denied me three times.

rsv@John:14:8 @ Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and we shall be satisfied."

rsv@John:14:25 @ "These things I have spoken to you, while I am still with you.

rsv@John:16:30 @ Now we know that you know all things, and need none to question you; by this we believe that you came from God."

rsv@John:16:33 @ I have said this to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."

rsv@John:17:12 @ While I was with them, I kept them in thy name, which thou hast given me; I have guarded them, and none of them is lost but the son of perdition, that the scripture might be fulfilled.

rsv@John:17:17 @ Sanctify them in the truth; thy word is truth.

rsv@John:17:24 @ Father, I desire that they also, whom thou hast given me, may be with me where I am, to behold my glory which thou hast given me in thy love for me before the foundation of the world.

rsv@John:18:19 @ The high priest then questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching.

rsv@John:18:29 @ So Pilate went out to them and said, "What accusation do you bring against this man?"

rsv@John:18:35 @ Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have handed you over to me; what have you done?"

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:19:19 @ 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:19:31 @ 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:19:35 @ He who saw it has borne witness--his testimony is true, and he knows that he tells the truth--that you also may believe.

rsv@John:19:42 @ So because of the Jewish day of Preparation, as the tomb was close at hand, they laid Jesus there.

rsv@John:20:1 @ Now on the first day of the week Mary Mag'dalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from 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: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:21:6 @ 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:21:14 @ This was now the third time that Jesus was revealed to the disciples after he was raised from the dead.

rsv@John:21:16 @ A second time he said to him, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love you." He said to him, "Tend my sheep."

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:21:22 @ 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@Acts:1:2 @ until the day when he was taken up, after he had given commandment through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen.

rsv@Acts:1:5 @ for John baptized with water, but before many days you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit."

rsv@Acts:1:6 @ So when they had come together, they asked him, "Lord, will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?"

rsv@Acts:1:7 @ He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has fixed by his own authority.

rsv@Acts:1:20 @ For it is written in the book of Psalms, `Let his habitation become desolate, and let there be no one to live in it'; and `His office let another take.'

rsv@Acts:1:21 @ So one of the men who have accompanied us during all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

rsv@Acts:1:22 @ beginning from the baptism of John until the day when he was taken up from us--one of these men must become with us a witness to his resurrection."

rsv@Acts:2:2 @ And suddenly a sound came from heaven like the rush of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

rsv@Acts:2:3 @ And there appeared to them tongues as of fire, distributed and resting on each one of them.

rsv@Acts:2:5 @ Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven.

rsv@Acts:2:6 @ And at this sound the multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one heard them speaking in his own language.

rsv@Acts:2:8 @ And how is it that we hear, each of us in his own native language?

rsv@Acts:2:27 @ For thou wilt not abandon my soul to Hades, nor let thy Holy One see corruption.

rsv@Acts:2:31 @ he foresaw and spoke of the resurrection of the Christ, that he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption.

rsv@Acts:2:35 @ till I make thy enemies a stool for thy feet.'

rsv@Acts:2:38 @ And Peter said to them, "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

rsv@Acts:2:40 @ And he testified with many other words and exhorted them, saying, "Save yourselves from this crooked generation."

rsv@Acts:2:41 @ So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls.

rsv@Acts:3:2 @ And a man lame from birth was being carried, whom they laid daily at that gate of the temple which is called Beautiful to ask alms of those who entered the temple.

rsv@Acts:3:5 @ And he fixed his attention upon them, expecting to receive something from them.

rsv@Acts:3:10 @ and recognized him as the one who sat for alms at the Beautiful Gate of the temple; and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

rsv@Acts:3:11 @ While he clung to Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the portico called Solomon's, astounded.

rsv@Acts:3:19 @ Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,

rsv@Acts:3:21 @ whom heaven must receive until the time for establishing all that God spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets from of old.

rsv@Acts:4:2 @ annoyed because they were teaching the people and proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection from the dead.

rsv@Acts:4:3 @ And they arrested them and put them in custody until the morrow, for it was already evening.

rsv@Acts:4:12 @ And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."

rsv@Acts:4:14 @ But seeing the man that had been healed standing beside them, they had nothing to say in opposition.

rsv@Acts:4:25 @ who by the mouth of our father David, thy servant, didst say by the Holy Spirit, `Why did the Gentiles rage, and the peoples imagine vain things?

rsv@Acts:4:28 @ to do whatever thy hand and thy plan had predestined to take place.

rsv@Acts:4:33 @ And with great power the apostles gave their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all.

rsv@Acts:4:35 @ and laid it at the apostles' feet; and distribution was made to each as any had need.

rsv@Acts:4:36 @ Thus Joseph who was surnamed by the apostles Barnabas (which means, Son of encouragement), a Levite, a native of Cyprus,

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

rsv@Acts:5:14 @ And more than ever believers were added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women,

rsv@Acts:5:27 @ And when they had brought them, they set them before the council. And the high priest questioned them,

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

rsv@Acts:6:5 @ And what they said pleased the whole multitude, and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Proch'orus, and Nica'nor, and Ti'mon, and Par'menas, and Nicola'us, a proselyte of Antioch.

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

rsv@Acts:6:11 @ Then they secretly instigated men, who said, "We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and God."

rsv@Acts:6:12 @ And they stirred up the people and the elders and the scribes, and they came upon him and seized him and brought him before the council,

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

rsv@Acts:7:10 @ and rescued him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt, who made him governor over Egypt and over all his household.

rsv@Acts:7:11 @ Now there came a famine throughout all Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction, and our fathers could find no food.

rsv@Acts:7:12 @ But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent forth our fathers the first time.

rsv@Acts:9:18 @ And immediately something like scales fell from his eyes and he regained his sight. Then he rose and was baptized,

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

rsv@Acts:9:38 @ Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, hearing that Peter was there, sent two men to him entreating him, "Please come to us without delay."

rsv@Acts:10:12 @ In it were all kinds of animals and reptiles and birds of the air.

rsv@Acts:10:15 @ And the voice came to him again a second time, "What God has cleansed, you must not call common."

rsv@Acts:10:16 @ This happened three times, and the thing was taken up at once to heaven.

rsv@Acts:10:20 @ Rise and go down, and accompany them without hesitation; for I have sent them."

rsv@Acts:10:22 @ And they said, "Cornelius, a centurion, an upright and God-fearing man, who is well spoken of by the whole Jewish nation, was directed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house, and to hear what you have to say."

rsv@Acts:10:24 @ And on the following day they entered Caesare'a. Cornelius was expecting them and had called together his kinsmen and close friends.

rsv@Acts:10:28 @ and he said to them, "You yourselves know how unlawful it is for a Jew to associate with or to visit any one of another nation; but God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

rsv@Acts:10:29 @ So when I was sent for, I came without objection. I ask then why you sent for me."

rsv@Acts:10:34 @ And Peter opened his mouth and said: "Truly I perceive that God shows no partiality,

rsv@Acts:10:35 @ but in every nation any one who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him.

rsv@Acts:10:37 @ the word which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism which John preached:

rsv@Acts:10:42 @ And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that he is the one ordained by God to be judge of the living and the dead.

rsv@Acts:10:44 @ While Peter was still saying this, the Holy Spirit fell on all who heard the word.

rsv@Acts:10:45 @ And the believers from among the circumcised who came with Peter were amazed, because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles.

rsv@Acts:10:47 @ "Can any one forbid water for baptizing these people who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?"

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

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

rsv@Acts:11:2 @ So when Peter went up to Jerusalem, the circumcision party criticized him,

rsv@Acts:11:6 @ Looking at it closely I observed animals and beasts of prey and reptiles and birds of the air.

rsv@Acts:11:9 @ But the voice answered a second time from heaven, `What God has cleansed you must not call common.'

rsv@Acts:11:10 @ This happened three times, and all was drawn up again into heaven.

rsv@Acts:11:12 @ And the Spirit told me to go with them, making no distinction. These six brethren also accompanied me, and we entered the man's house.

rsv@Acts:11:16 @ And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, `John baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'

rsv@Acts:11:18 @ When they heard this they were silenced. And they glorified God, saying, "Then to the Gentiles also God has granted repentance unto life."

rsv@Acts:11:19 @ Now those who were scattered because of the persecution that arose over Stephen traveled as far as Phoeni'cia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to none except Jews.

rsv@Acts:11:20 @ But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyre'ne, who on coming to Antioch spoke to the Greeks also, preaching the Lord Jesus.

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:12:1 @ About that time Herod the king laid violent hands upon some who belonged to the church.

rsv@Acts:12:11 @ And Peter came to himself, and said, "Now I am sure that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting."

rsv@Acts:12:16 @ But Peter continued knocking; and when they opened, they saw him and were amazed.

rsv@Acts:12:17 @ But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, "Tell this to James and to the brethren." Then he departed and went to another place.

rsv@Acts:12:18 @ Now when day came, there was no small stir among the soldiers over what had become of Peter.

rsv@Acts:12:21 @ On an appointed day Herod put on his royal robes, took his seat upon the throne, and made an oration to them.

rsv@Acts:12:24 @ But the word of God grew and multiplied.

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

rsv@Acts:13:2 @ While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them."

rsv@Acts:13:3 @ Then after fasting and praying they laid their hands on them and sent them off.

rsv@Acts:13:11 @ And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you shall be blind and unable to see the sun for a time." Immediately mist and darkness fell upon him and he went about seeking people to lead him by the hand.

rsv@Acts:13:14 @ but they passed on from Perga and came to Antioch of Pisid'ia. And on the sabbath day they went into the synagogue and sat down.

rsv@Acts:13:15 @ After the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, "Brethren, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, say it."

rsv@Acts:13:16 @ So Paul stood up, and motioning with his hand said: "Men of Israel, and you that fear God, listen.

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

rsv@Acts:13:20 @ And after that he gave them judges until Samuel the prophet.

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

rsv@Acts:13:24 @ Before his coming John had preached a baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.

rsv@Acts:13:25 @ And as John was finishing his course, he said, `What do you suppose that I am? I am not he. No, but after me one is coming, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to untie.'

rsv@Acts:13:26 @ "Brethren, sons of the family of Abraham, and those among you that fear God, to us has been sent the message of this salvation.

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:13:37 @ but he whom God raised up saw no corruption.

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

rsv@Acts:13:45 @ But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with jealousy, and contradicted what was spoken by Paul, and reviled him.

rsv@Acts:13:46 @ And Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, saying, "It was necessary that the word of God should be spoken first to you. Since you thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.

rsv@Acts:13:47 @ For so the Lord has commanded us, saying, `I have set you to be a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the uttermost parts of the earth.'"

rsv@Acts:13:48 @ And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad and glorified the word of God; and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.

rsv@Acts:13:50 @ But the Jews incited the devout women of high standing and the leading men of the city, and stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their district.

rsv@Acts:14:2 @ But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles and poisoned their minds against the brethren.

rsv@Acts:14:3 @ So they remained for a long time, speaking boldly for the Lord, who bore witness to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

rsv@Acts:14:5 @ When an attempt was made by both Gentiles and Jews, with their rulers, to molest them and to stone them,

rsv@Acts:14:6 @ they learned of it and fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycao'nia, and to the surrounding country;

rsv@Acts:14:8 @ Now at Lystra there was a man sitting, who could not use his feet; he was a cripple from birth, who had never walked.

rsv@Acts:14:14 @ But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of it, they tore their garments and rushed out among the multitude, crying,

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

rsv@Acts:14:17 @ yet he did not leave himself without witness, for he did good and gave you from heaven rains and fruitful seasons, satisfying your hearts with food and gladness."

rsv@Acts:14:19 @ But Jews came there from Antioch and Ico'nium; and having persuaded the people, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead.

rsv@Acts:14:21 @ When they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Ico'nium and to Antioch,

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

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

rsv@Acts:14:26 @ and from there they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled.

rsv@Acts:14:27 @ And when they arrived, they gathered the church together and declared all that God had done with them, and how he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles.

rsv@Acts:14:28 @ And they remained no little time with the disciples.

rsv@Acts:15:2 @ And when Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and debate with them, Paul and Barnabas and some of the others were appointed to go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and the elders about this question.

rsv@Acts:15:3 @ So, being sent on their way by the church, they passed through both Phoeni'cia and Sama'ria, reporting the conversion of the Gentiles, and they gave great joy to all the brethren.

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

rsv@Acts:15:9 @ and he made no distinction between us and them, but cleansed their hearts by faith.

rsv@Acts:15:10 @ Now therefore why do you make trial of God by putting a yoke upon the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we have been able to bear?

rsv@Acts:15:12 @ And all the assembly kept silence; and they listened to Barnabas and Paul as they related what signs and wonders God had done through them among the Gentiles.

rsv@Acts:15:14 @ Simeon has related how God first visited the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name.

rsv@Acts:15:17 @ that the rest of men may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles who are called by my name,

rsv@Acts:15:19 @ Therefore my judgment is that we should not trouble those of the Gentiles who turn to God,

rsv@Acts:15:20 @ but should write to them to abstain from the pollutions of idols and from unchastity and from what is strangled and from blood.

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

rsv@Acts:15:22 @ Then it seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole church, to choose men from among them and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They sent Judas called Barsab'bas, and Silas, leading men among the brethren,

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

rsv@Acts:15:24 @ Since we have heard that some persons from us have troubled you with words, unsettling your minds, although we gave them no instructions,

rsv@Acts:15:29 @ that you abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols and from blood and from what is strangled and from unchastity. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell."

rsv@Acts:15:30 @ So when they were sent off, they went down to Antioch; and having gathered the congregation together, they delivered the letter.

rsv@Acts:15:31 @ And when they read it, they rejoiced at the exhortation.

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

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

rsv@Acts:15:38 @ And there arose a sharp contention, so that they separated from each other; Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus,

rsv@Acts:16:1 @ And he came also to Derbe and to Lystra. A disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer; but his father was a Greek.

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

rsv@Acts:16:4 @ As they went on their way through the cities, they delivered to them for observance the decisions which had been reached by the apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem.

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

rsv@Acts:16:11 @ Setting sail therefore from Tro'as, we made a direct voyage to Sam'othrace, and the following day to Ne-ap'olis,

rsv@Acts:16:14 @ One who heard us was a woman named Lydia, from the city of Thyati'ra, a seller of purple goods, who was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to give heed to what was said by Paul.

rsv@Acts:16:15 @ And when she was baptized, with her household, she besought us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay." And she prevailed upon us.

rsv@Acts:16:16 @ As we were going to the place of prayer, we were met by a slave girl who had a spirit of divination and brought her owners much gain by soothsaying.

rsv@Acts:16:17 @ She followed Paul and us, crying, "These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to you the way of salvation."

rsv@Acts:16:21 @ They advocate customs which it is not lawful for us Romans to accept or practice."

rsv@Acts:16:26 @ and suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and every one's fetters were unfastened.

rsv@Acts:16:33 @ And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their wounds, and he was baptized at once, with all his family.

rsv@Acts:16:37 @ But Paul said to them, "They have beaten us publicly, uncondemned, men who are Roman citizens, and have thrown us into prison; and do they now cast us out secretly? No! let them come themselves and take us out."

rsv@Acts:16:38 @ The police reported these words to the magistrates, and they were afraid when they heard that they were Roman citizens;

rsv@Acts:17:6 @ And when they could not find them, they dragged Jason and some of the brethren before the city authorities, crying, "These men who have turned the world upside down have come here also,

rsv@Acts:17:7 @ and Jason has received them; and they are all acting against the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus."

rsv@Acts:17:8 @ And the people and the city authorities were disturbed when they heard this.

rsv@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews of Thessaloni'ca learned that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul at Beroe'a also, they came there too, stirring up and inciting the crowds.

rsv@Acts:17:14 @ Then the brethren immediately sent Paul off on his way to the sea, but Silas and Timothy remained there.

rsv@Acts:17:15 @ Those who conducted Paul brought him as far as Athens; and receiving a command for Silas and Timothy to come to him as soon as possible, they departed.

rsv@Acts:17:16 @ Now while Paul was waiting for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw that the city was full of idols.

rsv@Acts:17:18 @ Some also of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers met him. And some said, "What would this babbler say?" Others said, "He seems to be a preacher of foreign divinities"--because he preached Jesus and the resurrection.

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

rsv@Acts:17:23 @ For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription, `To an unknown god.' What therefore you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you.

rsv@Acts:17:26 @ And he made from one every nation of men to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their habitation,

rsv@Acts:17:29 @ Being then God's offspring, we ought not to think that the Deity is like gold, or silver, or stone, a representation by the art and imagination of man.

rsv@Acts:17:30 @ The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all men everywhere to repent,

rsv@Acts:17:32 @ Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, "We will hear you again about this."

rsv@Acts:18:2 @ And he found a Jew named Aq'uila, a native of Pontus, lately come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome. And he went to see them;

rsv@Acts:18:5 @ When Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedo'nia, Paul was occupied with preaching, testifying to the Jews that the Christ was Jesus.

rsv@Acts:18:6 @ And when they opposed and reviled him, he shook out his garments and said to them, "Your blood be upon your heads! I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles."

rsv@Acts:18:7 @ And he left there and went to the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God; his house was next door to the synagogue.

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

rsv@Acts:18:15 @ but since it is a matter of questions about words and names and your own law, see to it yourselves; I refuse to be a judge of these things."

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

rsv@Acts:18:22 @ When he had landed at Caesare'a, he went up and greeted the church, and then went down to Antioch.

rsv@Acts:18:23 @ After spending some time there he departed and went from place to place through the region of Galatia and Phryg'ia, strengthening all the disciples.

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

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

rsv@Acts:19:3 @ And he said, "Into what then were you baptized?" They said, "Into John's baptism."

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:19:10 @ This continued for two years, so that all the residents of Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.

rsv@Acts:19:13 @ Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists undertook to pronounce the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, "I adjure you by the Jesus whom Paul preaches."

rsv@Acts:19:18 @ Many also of those who were now believers came, confessing and divulging their practices.

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

rsv@Acts:19:20 @ So the word of the Lord grew and prevailed mightily.

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

rsv@Acts:19:23 @ About that time there arose no little stir concerning the Way.

rsv@Acts:19:25 @ These he gathered together, with the workmen of like occupation, and said, "Men, you know that from this business we have our wealth.

rsv@Acts:19:33 @ Some of the crowd prompted Alexander, whom the Jews had put forward. And Alexander motioned with his hand, wishing to make a defense to the people.

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

rsv@Acts:20:4 @ Sop'ater of Beroe'a, the son of Pyrrhus, accompanied him; and of the Thessalo'nians, Aristar'chus and Secun'dus; and Ga'ius of Derbe, and Timothy; and the Asians, Tych'icus and Troph'imus.

rsv@Acts:20:5 @ These went on and were waiting for us at Tro'as,

rsv@Acts:20:7 @ On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the morrow; and he prolonged his speech until midnight.

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

rsv@Acts:20:11 @ And when Paul had gone up and had broken bread and eaten, he conversed with them a long while, until daybreak, and so departed.

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

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

rsv@Acts:20:21 @ testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance to God and of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Acts:20:23 @ except that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city that imprisonment and afflictions await me.

rsv@Acts:20:24 @ But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may accomplish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

rsv@Acts:20:26 @ Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all of you,

rsv@Acts:20:32 @ And now I commend you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

rsv@Acts:20:34 @ You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my necessities, and to those who were with me.

rsv@Acts:21:5 @ And when our days there were ended, we departed and went on our journey; and they all, with wives and children, brought us on our way till we were outside the city; and kneeling down on the beach we prayed and bade one another farewell.

rsv@Acts:21:11 @ And coming to us he took Paul's girdle and bound his own feet and hands, and said, "Thus says the Holy Spirit, `So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man who owns this girdle and deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.'"

rsv@Acts:21:19 @ After greeting them, he related one by one the things that God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.

rsv@Acts:21:21 @ and they have been told about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children or observe the customs.

rsv@Acts:21:25 @ But as for the Gentiles who have believed, we have sent a letter with our judgment that they should abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols and from blood and from what is strangled and from unchastity."

rsv@Acts:21:26 @ Then Paul took the men, and the next day he purified himself with them and went into the temple, to give notice when the days of purification would be fulfilled and the offering presented for every one of them.

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

rsv@Acts:21:32 @ He at once took soldiers and centurions, and ran down to them; and when they saw the tribune and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.

rsv@Acts:21:38 @ Are you not the Egyptian, then, who recently stirred up a revolt and led the four thousand men of the Assassins out into the wilderness?"

rsv@Acts:21:39 @ Paul replied, "I am a Jew, from Tarsus in Cili'cia, a citizen of no mean city; I beg you, let me speak to the people."

rsv@Acts:21:40 @ And when he had given him leave, Paul, standing on the steps, motioned with his hand to the people; and when there was a great hush, he spoke to them in the Hebrew language, saying:

rsv@Acts:22:8 @ And I answered, `Who are you, Lord?' And he said to me, `I am Jesus of Nazareth whom you are persecuting.'

rsv@Acts:22:16 @ And now why do you wait? Rise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on his name.'

rsv@Acts:22:18 @ and saw him saying to me, `Make haste and get quickly out of Jerusalem, because they will not accept your testimony about me.'

rsv@Acts:22:21 @ And he said to me, `Depart; for I will send you far away to the Gentiles.'"

rsv@Acts:22:25 @ But when they had tied him up with the thongs, Paul said to the centurion who was standing by, "Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman citizen, and uncondemned?"

rsv@Acts:22:26 @ When the centurion heard that, he went to the tribune and said to him, "What are you about to do? For this man is a Roman citizen."

rsv@Acts:22:27 @ So the tribune came and said to him, "Tell me, are you a Roman citizen?" And he said, "Yes."

rsv@Acts:22:28 @ The tribune answered, "I bought this citizenship for a large sum." Paul said, "But I was born a citizen."

rsv@Acts:22:29 @ So those who were about to examine him withdrew from him instantly; and the tribune also was afraid, for he realized that Paul was a Roman citizen and that he had bound him.

rsv@Acts:23:3 @ Then Paul said to him, "God shall strike you, you whitewashed wall! Are you sitting to judge me according to the law, and yet contrary to the law you order me to be struck?"

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

rsv@Acts:23:8 @ For the Sad'ducees say that there is no resurrection, nor angel, nor spirit; but the Pharisees acknowledge them all.

rsv@Acts:23:11 @ The following night the Lord stood by him and said, "Take courage, for as you have testified about me at Jerusalem, so you must bear witness also at Rome."

rsv@Acts:23:12 @ When it was day, the Jews made a plot and bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink till they had killed Paul.

rsv@Acts:23:15 @ You therefore, along with the council, give notice now to the tribune to bring him down to you, as though you were going to determine his case more exactly. And we are ready to kill him before he comes near."

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

rsv@Acts:23:26 @ "Claudius Lys'ias to his Excellency the governor Felix, greeting.

rsv@Acts:23:27 @ This man was seized by the Jews, and was about to be killed by them, when I came upon them with the soldiers and rescued him, having learned that he was a Roman citizen.

rsv@Acts:23:29 @ I found that he was accused about questions of their law, but charged with nothing deserving death or imprisonment.

rsv@Acts:23:31 @ So the soldiers, according to their instructions, took Paul and brought him by night to Antip'atris.

rsv@Acts:24:2 @ and when he was called, Tertul'lus began to accuse him, saying: "Since through you we enjoy much peace, and since by your provision, most excellent Felix, reforms are introduced on behalf of this nation,

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

rsv@Acts:24:5 @ For we have found this man a pestilent fellow, an agitator among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes.

rsv@Acts:24:20 @ except this one thing which I cried out while standing among them, `With respect to the resurrection of the dead I am on trial before you this day.'"

rsv@Acts:24:24 @ And as he argued about justice and self-control and future judgment, Felix was alarmed and said, "Go away for the present; when I have an opportunity I will summon you."

rsv@Acts:24:25 @ At the same time he hoped that money would be given him by Paul. So he sent for him often and conversed with him.

rsv@Acts:25:15 @ and when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews gave information about him, asking for sentence against him.

rsv@Acts:25:19 @ but they had certain points of dispute with him about their own superstition and about one Jesus, who was dead, but whom Paul asserted to be alive.

rsv@Acts:25:20 @ Being at a loss how to investigate these questions, I asked whether he wished to go to Jerusalem and be tried there regarding them.

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

rsv@Acts:25:24 @ And Festus said, "King Agrippa and all who are present with us, you see this man about whom the whole Jewish people petitioned me, both at Jerusalem and here, shouting that he ought not to live any longer.

rsv@Acts:26:2 @ "I think myself fortunate that it is before you, King Agrippa, I am to make my defense today against all the accusations of the Jews,

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

rsv@Acts:26:15 @ And I said, `Who are you, Lord?' And the Lord said, `I am Jesus whom you are persecuting.

rsv@Acts:26:20 @ but declared first to those at Damascus, then at Jerusalem and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God and perform deeds worthy of their repentance.

rsv@Acts:26:22 @ To this day I have had the help that comes from God, and so I stand here testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would come to pass:

rsv@Acts:26:23 @ that the Christ must suffer, and that, by being the first to rise from the dead, he would proclaim light both to the people and to the Gentiles."

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

rsv@Acts:26:28 @ And Agrippa said to Paul, "In a short time you think to make me a Christian!"

rsv@Acts:26:30 @ Then the king rose, and the governor and Berni'ce and those who were sitting with them;

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

rsv@Acts:27:4 @ And putting to sea from there we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were against us.

rsv@Acts:27:8 @ Coasting along it with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near which was the city of Lase'a.

rsv@Acts:27:9 @ As much time had been lost, and the voyage was already dangerous because the fast had already gone by, Paul advised them,

rsv@Acts:27:11 @ But the centurion paid more attention to the captain and to the owner of the ship than to what Paul said.

rsv@Acts:27:17 @ after hoisting it up, they took measures to undergird the ship; then, fearing that they should run on the Syr'tis, they lowered the gear, and so were driven.

rsv@Acts:27:27 @ When the fourteenth night had come, as we were drifting across the sea of A'dria, about midnight the sailors suspected that they were nearing land.

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

rsv@Acts:27:39 @ Now when it was day, they did not recognize the land, but they noticed a bay with a beach, on which they planned if possible to bring the ship ashore.

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

rsv@Acts:28:2 @ And the natives showed us unusual kindness, for they kindled a fire and welcomed us all, because it had begun to rain and was cold.

rsv@Acts:28:3 @ Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and put them on the fire, when a viper came out because of the heat and fastened on his hand.

rsv@Acts:28:4 @ When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, "No doubt this man is a murderer. Though he has escaped from the sea, justice has not allowed him to live."

rsv@Acts:28:6 @ They waited, expecting him to swell up or suddenly fall down dead; but when they had waited a long time and saw no misfortune come to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.

rsv@Acts:28:8 @ It happened that the father of Publius lay sick with fever and dysentery; and Paul visited him and prayed, and putting his hands on him healed him.

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

rsv@Acts:28:19 @ But when the Jews objected, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar--though I had no charge to bring against my nation.

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

rsv@Romans:1:5 @ through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations,

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

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

rsv@Romans:1:14 @ I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish:

rsv@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the gospel: it is the power of God for salvation to every one who has faith, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

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

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

rsv@Romans:1:23 @ and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man or birds or animals or reptiles.

rsv@Romans:1:26 @ For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. Their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural,

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

rsv@Romans:1:32 @ Though they know God's decree that those who do such things deserve to die, they not only do them but approve those who practice them.

rsv@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you presume upon the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not know that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?

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

rsv@Romans:2:8 @ but for those who are factious and do not obey the truth, but obey wickedness, there will be wrath and fury.

rsv@Romans:2:9 @ There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek,

rsv@Romans:2:11 @ For God shows no partiality.

rsv@Romans:2:13 @ For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified.

rsv@Romans:2:14 @ When Gentiles who have not the law do by nature what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law.

rsv@Romans:2:15 @ They show that what the law requires is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts accuse or perhaps excuse them

rsv@Romans:2:17 @ But if you call yourself a Jew and rely upon the law and boast of your relation to God

rsv@Romans:2:24 @ For, as it is written, "The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you."

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

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

rsv@Romans:3:7 @ But if through my falsehood God's truthfulness abounds to his glory, why am I still being condemned as a sinner?

rsv@Romans:3:8 @ And why not do evil that good may come?--as some people slanderously charge us with saying. Their condemnation is just.

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Romans:3:27 @ Then what becomes of our boasting? It is excluded. On what principle? On the principle of works? No, but on the principle of faith.

rsv@Romans:3:28 @ For we hold that a man is justified by faith apart from works of law.

rsv@Romans:3:29 @ Or is God the God of Jews only? Is he not the God of Gentiles also? Yes, of Gentiles also,

rsv@Romans:3:30 @ since God is one; and he will justify the circumcised on the ground of their faith and the uncircumcised through their faith.

rsv@Romans:4:2 @ For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God.

rsv@Romans:4:5 @ And to one who does not work but trusts him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is reckoned as righteousness.

rsv@Romans:4:7 @ "Blessed are those whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered;

rsv@Romans:4:11 @ He received circumcision as a sign or seal of the righteousness which he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised. The purpose was to make him the father of all who believe without being circumcised and who thus have righteousness reckoned to them,

rsv@Romans:4:17 @ as it is written, "I have made you the father of many nations" --in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist.

rsv@Romans:4:18 @ In hope he believed against hope, that he should become the father of many nations; as he had been told, "So shall your descendants be."

rsv@Romans:4:25 @ who was put to death for our trespasses and raised for our justification.

rsv@Romans:5:1 @ Therefore, since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Romans:5:6 @ While we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.

rsv@Romans:5:9 @ Since, therefore, we are now justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God.

rsv@Romans:5:11 @ Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received our reconciliation.

rsv@Romans:5:16 @ And the free gift is not like the effect of that one man's sin. For the judgment following one trespass brought condemnation, but the free gift following many trespasses brings justification.

rsv@Romans:5:18 @ Then as one man's trespass led to condemnation for all men, so one man's act of righteousness leads to acquittal and life for all men.

rsv@Romans:6:1 @ What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound?

rsv@Romans:6:2 @ By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it?

rsv@Romans:6:3 @ Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

rsv@Romans:6:4 @ We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.

rsv@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his.

rsv@Romans:6:19 @ I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once yielded your members to impurity and to greater and greater iniquity, so now yield your members to righteousness for sanctification.

rsv@Romans:6:22 @ But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the return you get is sanctification and its end, eternal life.

rsv@Romans:7:6 @ But now we are discharged from the law, dead to that which held us captive, so that we serve not under the old written code but in the new life of the Spirit.

rsv@Romans:7:15 @ I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate.

rsv@Romans:7:23 @ but I see in my members another law at war with the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin which dwells in my members.

rsv@Romans:8:1 @ There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Romans:8:7 @ For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's law, indeed it cannot;

rsv@Romans:8:18 @ I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.

rsv@Romans:8:19 @ For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God;

rsv@Romans:8:20 @ for the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will but by the will of him who subjected it in hope;

rsv@Romans:8:21 @ because the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to decay and obtain the glorious liberty of the children of God.

rsv@Romans:8:22 @ We know that the whole creation has been groaning in travail together until now;

rsv@Romans:8:23 @ and not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

rsv@Romans:8:25 @ But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience.

rsv@Romans:8:29 @ For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the first-born among many brethren.

rsv@Romans:8:30 @ And those whom he predestined he also called; and those whom he called he also justified; and those whom he justified he also glorified.

rsv@Romans:8:33 @ Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies;

rsv@Romans:8:35 @ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

rsv@Romans:8:38 @ For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,

rsv@Romans:8:39 @ nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

rsv@Romans:9:9 @ For this is what the promise said, "About this time I will return and Sarah shall have a son."

rsv@Romans:9:11 @ though they were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad, in order that God's purpose of election might continue, not because of works but because of his call,

rsv@Romans:9:14 @ What shall we say then? Is there injustice on God's part? By no means!

rsv@Romans:9:16 @ So it depends not upon man's will or exertion, but upon God's mercy.

rsv@Romans:9:19 @ You will say to me then, "Why does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?"

rsv@Romans:9:22 @ What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience the vessels of wrath made for destruction,

rsv@Romans:9:24 @ even us whom he has called, not from the Jews only but also from the Gentiles?

rsv@Romans:9:30 @ What shall we say, then? That Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness have attained it, that is, righteousness through faith;

rsv@Romans:10:4 @ For Christ is the end of the law, that every one who has faith may be justified.

rsv@Romans:10:5 @ Moses writes that the man who practices the righteousness which is based on the law shall live by it.

rsv@Romans:10:10 @ For man believes with his heart and so is justified, and he confesses with his lips and so is saved.

rsv@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; the same Lord is Lord of all and bestows his riches upon all who call upon him.

rsv@Romans:10:15 @ And how can men preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach good news!"

rsv@Romans:10:19 @ Again I ask, did Israel not understand? First Moses says, "I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation; with a foolish nation I will make you angry."

rsv@Romans:11:5 @ So too at the present time there is a remnant, chosen by grace.

rsv@Romans:11:9 @ And David says, "Let their table become a snare and a trap, a pitfall and a retribution for them;

rsv@Romans:11:11 @ So I ask, have they stumbled so as to fall? By no means! But through their trespass salvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make Israel jealous.

rsv@Romans:11:12 @ Now if their trespass means riches for the world, and if their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full inclusion mean!

rsv@Romans:11:13 @ Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry

rsv@Romans:11:15 @ For if their rejection means the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance mean but life from the dead?

rsv@Romans:11:22 @ Note then the kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God's kindness to you, provided you continue in his kindness; otherwise you too will be cut off.

rsv@Romans:11:24 @ For if you have been cut from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and grafted, contrary to nature, into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these natural branches be grafted back into their own olive tree.

rsv@Romans:11:25 @ Lest you be wise in your own conceits, I want you to understand this mystery, brethren: a hardening has come upon part of Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles come in,

rsv@Romans:11:28 @ As regards the gospel they are enemies of God, for your sake; but as regards election they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers.

rsv@Romans:12:4 @ For as in one body we have many members, and all the members do not have the same function,

rsv@Romans:12:6 @ Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith;

rsv@Romans:12:8 @ he who exhorts, in his exhortation; he who contributes, in liberality; he who gives aid, with zeal; he who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.

rsv@Romans:12:10 @ love one another with brotherly affection; outdo one another in showing honor.

rsv@Romans:12:12 @ Rejoice in your hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.

rsv@Romans:12:13 @ Contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality.

rsv@Romans:13:1 @ Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.

rsv@Romans:13:2 @ Therefore he who resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment.

rsv@Romans:13:6 @ For the same reason you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, attending to this very thing.

rsv@Romans:13:11 @ Besides this you know what hour it is, how it is full time now for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed;

rsv@Romans:13:13 @ let us conduct ourselves becomingly as in the day, not in reveling and drunkenness, not in debauchery and licentiousness, not in quarreling and jealousy.

rsv@Romans:13:14 @ But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires.

rsv@Romans:15:4 @ For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that by steadfastness and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.

rsv@Romans:15:9 @ and in order that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written, "Therefore I will praise thee among the Gentiles, and sing to thy name";

rsv@Romans:15:10 @ and again it is said, "Rejoice, O Gentiles, with his people";

rsv@Romans:15:11 @ and again, "Praise the Lord, all Gentiles, and let all the peoples praise him";

rsv@Romans:15:12 @ and further Isaiah says, "The root of Jesse shall come, he who rises to rule the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles hope."

rsv@Romans:15:14 @ I myself am satisfied about you, my brethren, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, and able to instruct one another.

rsv@Romans:15:16 @ to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the offering of the Gentiles may be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

rsv@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has wrought through me to win obedience from the Gentiles, by word and deed,

rsv@Romans:15:20 @ thus making it my ambition to preach the gospel, not where Christ has already been named, lest I build on another man's foundation,

rsv@Romans:15:27 @ they were pleased to do it, and indeed they are in debt to them, for if the Gentiles have come to share in their spiritual blessings, they ought also to be of service to them in material blessings.

rsv@Romans:16:4 @ who risked their necks for my life, to whom not only I but also all the churches of the Gentiles give thanks;

rsv@Romans:16:17 @ I appeal to you, brethren, to take note of those who create dissensions and difficulties, in opposition to the doctrine which you have been taught; avoid them.

rsv@Romans:16:18 @ For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by fair and flattering words they deceive the hearts of the simple-minded.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:2 @ To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints together with all those who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both their Lord and ours:

rsv@1Corinthians:1:6 @ even as the testimony to Christ was confirmed among you--

rsv@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

rsv@1Corinthians:1:14 @ I am thankful that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Ga'ius;

rsv@1Corinthians:1:15 @ lest any one should say that you were baptized in my name.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:16 @ (I did baptize also the household of Steph'anas. Beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized any one else.)

rsv@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:23 @ but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles,

rsv@1Corinthians:1:30 @ He is the source of your life in Christ Jesus, whom God made our wisdom, our righteousness and sanctification and redemption;

rsv@1Corinthians:2:1 @ When I came to you, brethren, I did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God in lofty words or wisdom.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:4 @ and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

rsv@1Corinthians:2:7 @ But we impart a secret and hidden wisdom of God, which God decreed before the ages for our glorification.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:13 @ And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who possess the Spirit.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:3 @ for you are still of the flesh. For while there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not of the flesh, and behaving like ordinary men?

rsv@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and another man is building upon it. Let each man take care how he builds upon it.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:11 @ For no other foundation can any one lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:12 @ Now if any one builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw--

rsv@1Corinthians:3:14 @ If the work which any man has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:19 @ For the wisdom of this world is folly with God. For it is written, "He catches the wise in their craftiness,"

rsv@1Corinthians:3:20 @ and again, "The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile."

rsv@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then every man will receive his commendation from God.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:17 @ Therefore I sent to you Timothy, my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, to remind you of my ways in Christ, as I teach them everywhere in every church.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:5 @ you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:6 @ Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump?

rsv@1Corinthians:5:8 @ Let us, therefore, celebrate the festival, not with the old leaven, the leaven of malice and evil, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:15 @ Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I therefore take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never!

rsv@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Do you not know that he who joins himself to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, "The two shall become one flesh."

rsv@1Corinthians:7:2 @ But because of the temptation to immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:18 @ Was any one at the time of his call already circumcised? Let him not seek to remove the marks of circumcision. Was any one at the time of his call uncircumcised? Let him not seek circumcision.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:29 @ I mean, brethren, the appointed time has grown very short; from now on, let those who have wives live as though they had none,

rsv@1Corinthians:7:32 @ I want you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried man is anxious about the affairs of the Lord, how to please the Lord;

rsv@1Corinthians:7:35 @ I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Hence, as to the eating of food offered to idols, we know that "an idol has no real existence," and that "there is no God but one."

rsv@1Corinthians:9:7 @ Who serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard without eating any of its fruit? Who tends a flock without getting some of the milk?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Does he not speak entirely for our sake? It was written for our sake, because the plowman should plow in hope and the thresher thresh in hope of a share in the crop.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others share this rightful claim upon you, do not we still more? Nevertheless, we have not made use of this right, but we endure anything rather than put an obstacle in the way of the gospel of Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have made no use of any of these rights, nor am I writing this to secure any such provision. For I would rather die than have any one deprive me of my ground for boasting.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:16 @ For if I preach the gospel, that gives me no ground for boasting. For necessity is laid upon me. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!

rsv@1Corinthians:9:26 @ Well, I do not run aimlessly, I do not box as one beating the air;

rsv@1Corinthians:10:2 @ and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea,

rsv@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now these things happened to them as a warning, but they were written down for our instruction, upon whom the end of the ages has come.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your strength, but with the temptation will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:16 @ The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?

rsv@1Corinthians:10:25 @ Eat whatever is sold in the meat market without raising any question on the ground of conscience.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If one of the unbelievers invites you to dinner and you are disposed to go, eat whatever is set before you without raising any question on the ground of conscience.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:28 @ (But if some one says to you, "This has been offered in sacrifice," then out of consideration for the man who informed you, and for conscience' sake--

rsv@1Corinthians:11:2 @ I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:16 @ If any one is disposed to be contentious, we recognize no other practice, nor do the churches of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:17 @ But in the following instructions I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:19 @ for there must be factions among you in order that those who are genuine among you may be recognized.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:21 @ For in eating, each one goes ahead with his own meal, and one is hungry and another is drunk.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:34 @ if any one is hungry, let him eat at home--lest you come together to be condemned. About the other things I will give directions when I come.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:4 @ Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit;

rsv@1Corinthians:12:5 @ and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord;

rsv@1Corinthians:12:6 @ and there are varieties of working, but it is the same God who inspires them all in every one.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:7 @ To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:10 @ to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:11 @ All these are inspired by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body--Jews or Greeks, slaves or free--and all were made to drink of one Spirit.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:31 @ But earnestly desire the higher gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:2 @ And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:4 @ Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful;

rsv@1Corinthians:14:3 @ On the other hand, he who prophesies speaks to men for their upbuilding and encouragement and consolation.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ Now, brethren, if I come to you speaking in tongues, how shall I benefit you unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:7 @ If even lifeless instruments, such as the flute or the harp, do not give distinct notes, how will any one know what is played?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:8 @ And if the bugle gives an indistinct sound, who will get ready for battle?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:12 @ So with yourselves; since you are eager for manifestations of the Spirit, strive to excel in building up the church.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how can any one in the position of an outsider say the "Amen" to your thanksgiving when he does not know what you are saying?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ What then, brethren? When you come together, each one has a hymn, a lesson, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:30 @ If a revelation is made to another sitting by, let the first be silent.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If any one thinks that he is a prophet, or spiritual, he should acknowledge that what I am writing to you is a command of the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:6 @ Then he appeared to more than five hundred brethren at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:8 @ Last of all, as to one untimely born, he appeared also to me.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ Now if Christ is preached as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

rsv@1Corinthians:15:13 @ But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not been raised;

rsv@1Corinthians:15:15 @ We are even found to be misrepresenting God, because we testified of God that he raised Christ, whom he did not raise if it is true that the dead are not raised.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:17 @ If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:19 @ If for this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are of all men most to be pitied.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:25 @ For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:27 @ "For God has put all things in subjection under his feet." But when it says, "All things are put in subjection under him," it is plain that he is excepted who put all things under him.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Otherwise, what do people mean by being baptized on behalf of the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized on their behalf?

rsv@1Corinthians:15:40 @ There are celestial bodies and there are terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So is it with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:55 @ "O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?"

rsv@1Corinthians:15:56 @ The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:1 @ Now concerning the contribution for the saints: as I directed the churches of Galatia, so you also are to do.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that contributions need not be made when I come.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:7 @ For I do not want to see you now just in passing; I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:8 @ But I will stay in Ephesus until Pentecost,

rsv@1Corinthians:16:9 @ for a wide door for effective work has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:10 @ When Timothy comes, see that you put him at ease among you, for he is doing the work of the Lord, as I am.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:11 @ So let no one despise him. Speed him on his way in peace, that he may return to me; for I am expecting him with the brethren.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:18 @ for they refreshed my spirit as well as yours. Give recognition to such men.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The churches of Asia send greetings. Aq'uila and Prisca, together with the church in their house, send you hearty greetings in the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:20 @ All the brethren send greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:21 @ I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother. To the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in the whole of Acha'ia:

rsv@2Corinthians:1:4 @ who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:6 @ If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of the affliction we experienced in Asia; for we were so utterly, unbearably crushed that we despaired of life itself.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For our boast is this, the testimony of our conscience that we have behaved in the world, and still more toward you, with holiness and godly sincerity, not by earthly wisdom but by the grace of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:17 @ Was I vacillating when I wanted to do this? Do I make my plans like a worldly man, ready to say Yes and No at once?

rsv@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom we preached among you, Silva'nus and Timothy and I, was not Yes and No; but in him it is always Yes.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For I wrote you out of much affliction and anguish of heart and with many tears, not to cause you pain but to let you know the abundant love that I have for you.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:13 @ but my mind could not rest because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I took leave of them and went on to Macedo'nia.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, as some do, letters of recommendation to you, or from you?

rsv@2Corinthians:3:2 @ You yourselves are our letter of recommendation, written on your hearts, to be known and read by all men;

rsv@2Corinthians:3:7 @ Now if the dispensation of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such splendor that the Israelites could not look at Moses' face because of its brightness, fading as this was,

rsv@2Corinthians:3:8 @ will not the dispensation of the Spirit be attended with greater splendor?

rsv@2Corinthians:3:9 @ For if there was splendor in the dispensation of condemnation, the dispensation of righteousness must far exceed it in splendor.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:2 @ We have renounced disgraceful, underhanded ways; we refuse to practice cunning or to tamper with God's word, but by the open statement of the truth we would commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:16 @ So we do not lose heart. Though our outer nature is wasting away, our inner nature is being renewed every day.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:17 @ For this slight momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison,

rsv@2Corinthians:5:3 @ so that by putting it on we may not be found naked.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For while we are still in this tent, we sigh with anxiety; not that we would be unclothed, but that we would be further clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:12 @ We are not commending ourselves to you again but giving you cause to be proud of us, so that you may be able to answer those who pride themselves on a man's position and not on his heart.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:17 @ Therefore, if any one is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, behold, the new has come.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:18 @ All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation;

rsv@2Corinthians:5:19 @ that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:2 @ For he says, "At the acceptable time I have listened to you, and helped you on the day of salvation." Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:4 @ but as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: through great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities,

rsv@2Corinthians:6:5 @ beatings, imprisonments, tumults, labors, watching, hunger;

rsv@2Corinthians:6:12 @ You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted in your own affections.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:4 @ I have great confidence in you; I have great pride in you; I am filled with comfort. With all our affliction, I am overjoyed.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For even when we came into Macedo'nia, our bodies had no rest but we were afflicted at every turn--fighting without and fear within.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:6 @ But God, who comforts the downcast, comforted us by the coming of Titus,

rsv@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not only by his coming but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you, as he told us of your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:9 @ As it is, I rejoice, not because you were grieved, but because you were grieved into repenting; for you felt a godly grief, so that you suffered no loss through us.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation and brings no regret, but worldly grief produces death.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For see what earnestness this godly grief has produced in you, what eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what alarm, what longing, what zeal, what punishment! At every point you have proved yourselves guiltless in the matter.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:13 @ Therefore we are comforted. And besides our own comfort we rejoiced still more at the joy of Titus, because his mind has been set at rest by you all.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if I have expressed to him some pride in you, I was not put to shame; but just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting before Titus has proved true.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:2 @ for in a severe test of affliction, their abundance of joy and their extreme poverty have overflowed in a wealth of liberality on their part.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:3 @ For they gave according to their means, as I can testify, and beyond their means, of their own free will,

rsv@2Corinthians:8:6 @ Accordingly we have urged Titus that as he had already made a beginning, he should also complete among you this gracious work.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:11 @ so that your readiness in desiring it may be matched by your completing it out of what you have.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but that as a matter of equality your abundance at the present time should supply their want, so that their abundance may supply your want, that there may be equality.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:16 @ But thanks be to God who puts the same earnest care for you into the heart of Titus.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:23 @ As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker in your service; and as for our brethren, they are messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:24 @ So give proof, before the churches, of your love and of our boasting about you to these men.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:2 @ for I know your readiness, of which I boast about you to the people of Macedo'nia, saying that Acha'ia has been ready since last year; and your zeal has stirred up most of them.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:3 @ But I am sending the brethren so that our boasting about you may not prove vain in this case, so that you may be ready, as I said you would be;

rsv@2Corinthians:9:5 @ So I thought it necessary to urge the brethren to go on to you before me, and arrange in advance for this gift you have promised, so that it may be ready not as an exaction but as a willing gift.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:6 @ The point is this: he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:10 @ He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your resources and increase the harvest of your righteousness.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:13 @ Under the test of this service, you will glorify God by your obedience in acknowledging the gospel of Christ, and by the generosity of your contribution for them and for all others;

rsv@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I beg of you that when I am present I may not have to show boldness with such confidence as I count on showing against some who suspect us of acting in worldly fashion.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:5 @ We destroy arguments and every proud obstacle to the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ,

rsv@2Corinthians:10:13 @ But we will not boast beyond limit, but will keep to the limits God has apportioned us, to reach even to you.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:16 @ so that we may preach the gospel in lands beyond you, without boasting of work already done in another's field.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:3 @ But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:5 @ I think that I am not in the least inferior to these superlative apostles.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I robbed other churches by accepting support from them in order to serve you.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:12 @ And what I do I will continue to do, in order to undermine the claim of those who would like to claim that in their boasted mission they work on the same terms as we do.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:23 @ Are they servants of Christ? I am a better one--I am talking like a madman--with far greater labors, far more imprisonments, with countless beatings, and often near death.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:24 @ Five times I have received at the hands of the Jews the forty lashes less one.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:25 @ Three times I have been beaten with rods; once I was stoned. Three times I have been shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been adrift at sea;

rsv@2Corinthians:11:26 @ on frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, danger from robbers, danger from my own people, danger from Gentiles, danger in the city, danger in the wilderness, danger at sea, danger from false brethren;

rsv@2Corinthians:12:1 @ I must boast; there is nothing to be gained by it, but I will go on to visions and revelations of the Lord.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:7 @ And to keep me from being too elated by the abundance of revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan, to harass me, to keep me from being too elated.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:8 @ Three times I besought the Lord about this, that it should leave me;

rsv@2Corinthians:12:10 @ For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities; for when I am weak, then I am strong.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have been a fool! You forced me to it, for I ought to have been commended by you. For I was not at all inferior to these superlative apostles, even though I am nothing.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:12 @ The signs of a true apostle were performed among you in all patience, with signs and wonders and mighty works.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Here for the third time I am ready to come to you. And I will not be a burden, for I seek not what is yours but you; for children ought not to lay up for their parents, but parents for their children.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:16 @ But granting that I myself did not burden you, I was crafty, you say, and got the better of you by guile.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I urged Titus to go, and sent the brother with him. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not act in the same spirit? Did we not take the same steps?

rsv@2Corinthians:12:21 @ I fear that when I come again my God may humble me before you, and I may have to mourn over many of those who sinned before and have not repented of the impurity, immorality, and licentiousness which they have practiced.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:1 @ This is the third time I am coming to you. Any charge must be sustained by the evidence of two or three witnesses.

rsv@Galatians:1:1 @ Paul an apostle--not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead--

rsv@Galatians:1:2 @ and all the brethren who are with me, To the churches of Galatia:

rsv@Galatians:1:3 @ Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

rsv@Galatians:1:4 @ who gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father;

rsv@Galatians:1:5 @ to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@Galatians:1:6 @ I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and turning to a different gospel--

rsv@Galatians:1:7 @ not that there is another gospel, but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:1:8 @ But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to that which we preached to you, let him be accursed.

rsv@Galatians:1:9 @ As we have said before, so now I say again, If any one is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed.

rsv@Galatians:1:10 @ Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:1:11 @ For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man's gospel.

rsv@Galatians:1:12 @ For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ.

rsv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God violently and tried to destroy it;

rsv@Galatians:1:14 @ and I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people, so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers.

rsv@Galatians:1:15 @ But when he who had set me apart before I was born, and had called me through his grace,

rsv@Galatians:1:16 @ was pleased to reveal his Son to me, in order that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not confer with flesh and blood,

rsv@Galatians:1:17 @ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned to Damascus.

rsv@Galatians:1:18 @ Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Cephas, and remained with him fifteen days.

rsv@Galatians:1:19 @ But I saw none of the other apostles except James the Lord's brother.

rsv@Galatians:1:20 @ (In what I am writing to you, before God, I do not lie!)

rsv@Galatians:1:21 @ Then I went into the regions of Syria and Cili'cia.

rsv@Galatians:1:22 @ And I was still not known by sight to the churches of Christ in Judea;

rsv@Galatians:1:23 @ they only heard it said, "He who once persecuted us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy."

rsv@Galatians:1:24 @ And they glorified God because of me.

rsv@Galatians:2:1 @ Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along with me.

rsv@Galatians:2:2 @ I went up by revelation; and I laid before them (but privately before those who were of repute) the gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, lest somehow I should be running or had run in vain.

rsv@Galatians:2:3 @ But even Titus, who was with me, was not compelled to be circumcised, though he was a Greek.

rsv@Galatians:2:4 @ But because of false brethren secretly brought in, who slipped in to spy out our freedom which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage--

rsv@Galatians:2:5 @ to them we did not yield submission even for a moment, that the truth of the gospel might be preserved for you.

rsv@Galatians:2:6 @ And from those who were reputed to be something (what they were makes no difference to me; God shows no partiality)--those, I say, who were of repute added nothing to me;

rsv@Galatians:2:7 @ but on the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been entrusted with the gospel to the circumcised

rsv@Galatians:2:8 @ (for he who worked through Peter for the mission to the circumcised worked through me also for the Gentiles),

rsv@Galatians:2:9 @ and when they perceived the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised;

rsv@Galatians:2:10 @ only they would have us remember the poor, which very thing I was eager to do.

rsv@Galatians:2:11 @ But when Cephas came to Antioch I opposed him to his face, because he stood condemned.

rsv@Galatians:2:12 @ For before certain men came from James, he ate with the Gentiles; but when they came he drew back and separated himself, fearing the circumcision party.

rsv@Galatians:2:13 @ And with him the rest of the Jews acted insincerely, so that even Barnabas was carried away by their insincerity.

rsv@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they were not straightforward about the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all, "If you, though a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?"

rsv@Galatians:2:15 @ We ourselves, who are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners,

rsv@Galatians:2:16 @ yet who know that a man is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ, and not by works of the law, because by works of the law shall no one be justified.

rsv@Galatians:2:17 @ But if, in our endeavor to be justified in Christ, we ourselves were found to be sinners, is Christ then an agent of sin? Certainly not!

rsv@Galatians:2:18 @ But if I build up again those things which I tore down, then I prove myself a transgressor.

rsv@Galatians:2:19 @ For I through the law died to the law, that I might live to God.

rsv@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

rsv@Galatians:2:21 @ I do not nullify the grace of God; for if justification were through the law, then Christ died to no purpose.

rsv@Galatians:3:1 @ O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified?

rsv@Galatians:3:2 @ Let me ask you only this: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?

rsv@Galatians:3:3 @ Are you so foolish? Having begun with the Spirit, are you now ending with the flesh?

rsv@Galatians:3:4 @ Did you experience so many things in vain?--if it really is in vain.

rsv@Galatians:3:5 @ Does he who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you do so by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?

rsv@Galatians:3:6 @ Thus Abraham "believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness."

rsv@Galatians:3:7 @ So you see that it is men of faith who are the sons of Abraham.

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

rsv@Galatians:3:9 @ So then, those who are men of faith are blessed with Abraham who had faith.

rsv@Galatians:3:10 @ For all who rely on works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, "Cursed be every one who does not abide by all things written in the book of the law, and do them."

rsv@Galatians:3:11 @ Now it is evident that no man is justified before God by the law; for "He who through faith is righteous shall live";

rsv@Galatians:3:12 @ but the law does not rest on faith, for "He who does them shall live by them."

rsv@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us--for it is written, "Cursed be every one who hangs on a tree"--

rsv@Galatians:3:14 @ that in Christ Jesus the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

rsv@Galatians:3:15 @ To give a human example, brethren: no one annuls even a man's will, or adds to it, once it has been ratified.

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

rsv@Galatians:3:17 @ This is what I mean: the law, which came four hundred and thirty years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to make the promise void.

rsv@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance is by the law, it is no longer by promise; but God gave it to Abraham by a promise.

rsv@Galatians:3:19 @ Why then the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the offspring should come to whom the promise had been made; and it was ordained by angels through an intermediary.

rsv@Galatians:3:20 @ Now an intermediary implies more than one; but God is one.

rsv@Galatians:3:21 @ Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not; for if a law had been given which could make alive, then righteousness would indeed be by the law.

rsv@Galatians:3:22 @ But the scripture consigned all things to sin, that what was promised to faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

rsv@Galatians:3:23 @ Now before faith came, we were confined under the law, kept under restraint until faith should be revealed.

rsv@Galatians:3:24 @ So that the law was our custodian until Christ came, that we might be justified by faith.

rsv@Galatians:3:25 @ But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a custodian;

rsv@Galatians:3:26 @ for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith.

rsv@Galatians:3:27 @ For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

rsv@Galatians:3:28 @ There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Galatians:3:29 @ And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise.

rsv@Galatians:4:1 @ I mean that the heir, as long as he is a child, is no better than a slave, though he is the owner of all the estate;

rsv@Galatians:4:2 @ but he is under guardians and trustees until the date set by the father.

rsv@Galatians:4:3 @ So with us; when we were children, we were slaves to the elemental spirits of the universe.

rsv@Galatians:4:4 @ But when the time had fully come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law,

rsv@Galatians:4:5 @ to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.

rsv@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba! Father!"

rsv@Galatians:4:7 @ So through God you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son then an heir.

rsv@Galatians:4:8 @ Formerly, when you did not know God, you were in bondage to beings that by nature are no gods;

rsv@Galatians:4:9 @ but now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and beggarly elemental spirits, whose slaves you want to be once more?

rsv@Galatians:4:10 @ You observe days, and months, and seasons, and years!

rsv@Galatians:4:11 @ I am afraid I have labored over you in vain.

rsv@Galatians:4:12 @ Brethren, I beseech you, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You did me no wrong;

rsv@Galatians:4:13 @ you know it was because of a bodily ailment that I preached the gospel to you at first;

rsv@Galatians:4:14 @ and though my condition was a trial to you, you did not scorn or despise me, but received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus.

rsv@Galatians:4:15 @ What has become of the satisfaction you felt? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.

rsv@Galatians:4:16 @ Have I then become your enemy by telling you the truth?

rsv@Galatians:4:17 @ They make much of you, but for no good purpose; they want to shut you out, that you may make much of them.

rsv@Galatians:4:18 @ For a good purpose it is always good to be made much of, and not only when I am present with you.

rsv@Galatians:4:19 @ My little children, with whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you!

rsv@Galatians:4:20 @ I could wish to be present with you now and to change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.

rsv@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, you who desire to be under law, do you not hear the law?

rsv@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by a slave and one by a free woman.

rsv@Galatians:4:23 @ But the son of the slave was born according to the flesh, the son of the free woman through promise.

rsv@Galatians:4:24 @ Now this is an allegory: these women are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery; she is Hagar.

rsv@Galatians:4:25 @ Now Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia; she corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children.

rsv@Galatians:4:26 @ But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.

rsv@Galatians:4:27 @ For it is written, "Rejoice, O barren one who does not bear; break forth and shout, you who are not in travail; for the children of the desolate one are many more than the children of her that is married."

rsv@Galatians:4:28 @ Now we, brethren, like Isaac, are children of promise.

rsv@Galatians:4:29 @ But as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so it is now.

rsv@Galatians:4:30 @ But what does the scripture say? "Cast out the slave and her son; for the son of the slave shall not inherit with the son of the free woman."

rsv@Galatians:4:31 @ So, brethren, we are not children of the slave but of the free woman.

rsv@Galatians:5:1 @ For freedom Christ has set us free; stand fast therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.

rsv@Galatians:5:2 @ Now I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you.

rsv@Galatians:5:3 @ I testify again to every man who receives circumcision that he is bound to keep the whole law.

rsv@Galatians:5:4 @ You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace.

rsv@Galatians:5:5 @ For through the Spirit, by faith, we wait for the hope of righteousness.

rsv@Galatians:5:6 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love.

rsv@Galatians:5:7 @ You were running well; who hindered you from obeying the truth?

rsv@Galatians:5:8 @ This persuasion is not from him who calls you.

rsv@Galatians:5:9 @ A little leaven leavens the whole lump.

rsv@Galatians:5:10 @ I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view than mine; and he who is troubling you will bear his judgment, whoever he is.

rsv@Galatians:5:11 @ But if I, brethren, still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? In that case the stumbling block of the cross has been removed.

rsv@Galatians:5:12 @ I wish those who unsettle you would mutilate themselves!

rsv@Galatians:5:13 @ For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another.

rsv@Galatians:5:14 @ For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

rsv@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another.

rsv@Galatians:5:16 @ But I say, walk by the Spirit, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh.

rsv@Galatians:5:17 @ For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you would.

rsv@Galatians:5:18 @ But if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law.

rsv@Galatians:5:19 @ Now the works of the flesh are plain: fornication, impurity, licentiousness,

rsv@Galatians:5:20 @ idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit,

rsv@Galatians:5:21 @ envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

rsv@Galatians:5:22 @ But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

rsv@Galatians:5:23 @ gentleness, self-control; against such there is no law.

rsv@Galatians:5:24 @ And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

rsv@Galatians:5:25 @ If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.

rsv@Galatians:5:26 @ Let us have no self-conceit, no provoking of one another, no envy of one another.

rsv@Galatians:6:1 @ Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Look to yourself, lest you too be tempted.

rsv@Galatians:6:2 @ Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:6:3 @ For if any one thinks he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

rsv@Galatians:6:4 @ But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor.

rsv@Galatians:6:5 @ For each man will have to bear his own load.

rsv@Galatians:6:6 @ Let him who is taught the word share all good things with him who teaches.

rsv@Galatians:6:7 @ Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.

rsv@Galatians:6:8 @ For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption; but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

rsv@Galatians:6:9 @ And let us not grow weary in well-doing, for in due season we shall reap, if we do not lose heart.

rsv@Galatians:6:10 @ So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.

rsv@Galatians:6:11 @ See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand.

rsv@Galatians:6:12 @ It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh that would compel you to be circumcised, and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:6:13 @ For even those who receive circumcision do not themselves keep the law, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may glory in your flesh.

rsv@Galatians:6:14 @ But far be it from me to glory except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

rsv@Galatians:6:15 @ For neither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.

rsv@Galatians:6:16 @ Peace and mercy be upon all who walk by this rule, upon the Israel of God.

rsv@Galatians:6:17 @ Henceforth let no man trouble me; for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus.

rsv@Galatians:6:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.

rsv@Ephesians:1:4 @ even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him.

rsv@Ephesians:1:5 @ He destined us in love to be his sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,

rsv@Ephesians:1:7 @ In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace

rsv@Ephesians:1:10 @ as a plan for the fulness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.

rsv@Ephesians:1:12 @ we who first hoped in Christ have been destined and appointed to live for the praise of his glory.

rsv@Ephesians:1:13 @ In him you also, who have heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and have believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,

rsv@Ephesians:1:14 @ which is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory.

rsv@Ephesians:1:17 @ that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him,

rsv@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called the uncircumcision by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands--

rsv@Ephesians:2:12 @ remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

rsv@Ephesians:2:14 @ For he is our peace, who has made us both one, and has broken down the dividing wall of hostility,

rsv@Ephesians:2:16 @ and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby bringing the hostility to an end.

rsv@Ephesians:2:19 @ So then you are no longer strangers and sojourners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,

rsv@Ephesians:2:20 @ built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,

rsv@Ephesians:3:1 @ For this reason I, Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles--

rsv@Ephesians:3:3 @ how the mystery was made known to me by revelation, as I have written briefly.

rsv@Ephesians:3:5 @ which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;

rsv@Ephesians:3:6 @ that is, how the Gentiles are fellow heirs, members of the same body, and partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

rsv@Ephesians:3:8 @ To me, though I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,

rsv@Ephesians:3:10 @ that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places.

rsv@Ephesians:3:21 @ to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@Ephesians:4:2 @ with all lowliness and meekness, with patience, forbearing one another in love,

rsv@Ephesians:4:5 @ one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

rsv@Ephesians:4:8 @ Therefore it is said, "When he ascended on high he led a host of captives, and he gave gifts to men."

rsv@Ephesians:4:13 @ until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ;

rsv@Ephesians:4:14 @ so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the cunning of men, by their craftiness in deceitful wiles.

rsv@Ephesians:4:17 @ Now this I affirm and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds;

rsv@Ephesians:4:19 @ they have become callous and have given themselves up to licentiousness, greedy to practice every kind of uncleanness.

rsv@Ephesians:4:25 @ Therefore, putting away falsehood, let every one speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another.

rsv@Ephesians:4:30 @ And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

rsv@Ephesians:5:3 @ But fornication and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you, as is fitting among saints.

rsv@Ephesians:5:4 @ Let there be no filthiness, nor silly talk, nor levity, which are not fitting; but instead let there be thanksgiving.

rsv@Ephesians:5:16 @ making the most of the time, because the days are evil.

rsv@Ephesians:6:4 @ Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

rsv@Ephesians:6:9 @ Masters, do the same to them, and forbear threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and that there is no partiality with him.

rsv@Ephesians:6:12 @ For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

rsv@Philippians:1:7 @ It is right for me to feel thus about you all, because I hold you in my heart, for you are all partakers with me of grace, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel.

rsv@Philippians:1:25 @ Convinced of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith,

rsv@Philippians:1:28 @ and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear omen to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God.

rsv@Colossians:1:15 @ He is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of all creation;

rsv@Colossians:1:16 @ for in him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or authorities--all things were created through him and for him.

rsv@Colossians:1:23 @ provided that you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which has been preached to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a minister.

rsv@Colossians:1:24 @ Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I complete what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church,

rsv@Colossians:1:26 @ the mystery hidden for ages and generations but now made manifest to his saints.

rsv@Colossians:1:27 @ To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

rsv@Colossians:1:29 @ For this I toil, striving with all the energy which he mightily inspires within me.

rsv@Colossians:2:8 @ See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ.

rsv@Colossians:2:11 @ In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of flesh in the circumcision of Christ;

rsv@Colossians:2:12 @ and you were buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.

rsv@Colossians:2:15 @ He disarmed the principalities and powers and made a public example of them, triumphing over them in him.

rsv@Colossians:2:16 @ Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a sabbath.

rsv@Colossians:2:18 @ Let no one disqualify you, insisting on self-abasement and worship of angels, taking his stand on visions, puffed up without reason by his sensuous mind,

rsv@Colossians:2:20 @ If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the universe, why do you live as if you still belonged to the world? Why do you submit to regulations,

rsv@Colossians:2:23 @ These have indeed an appearance of wisdom in promoting rigor of devotion and self-abasement and severity to the body, but they are of no value in checking the indulgence of the flesh.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, for you received the word in much affliction, with joy inspired by the Holy Spirit;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ but though we had already suffered and been shamefully treated at Philip'pi, as you know, we had courage in our God to declare to you the gospel of God in the face of great opposition.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So, being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become very dear to us.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ by hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles that they may be saved--so as always to fill up the measure of their sins. But God's wrath has come upon them at last!

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But since we were bereft of you, brethren, for a short time, in person not in heart, we endeavored the more eagerly and with great desire to see you face to face;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is our hope or joy or crown of boasting before our Lord Jesus at his coming? Is it not you?

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ When people say, "There is peace and security," then sudden destruction will come upon them as travail comes upon a woman with child, and there will be no escape.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But, since we belong to the day, let us be sober, and put on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:9 @ For God has not destined us for wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ And we exhort you, brethren, admonish the idlers, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with them all.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ May the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept sound and blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, Silva'nus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalo'nians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ We are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, as is fitting, because your faith is growing abundantly, and the love of every one of you for one another is increasing.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ Therefore we ourselves boast of you in the churches of God for your steadfastness and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you are enduring.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ since indeed God deems it just to repay with affliction those who afflict you,

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:8 @ inflicting vengeance upon those who do not know God and upon those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:9 @ They shall suffer the punishment of eternal destruction and exclusion from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might,

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when he comes on that day to be glorified in his saints, and to be marveled at in all who have believed, because our testimony to you was believed.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be quickly shaken in mind or excited, either by spirit or by word, or by letter purporting to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one deceive you in any way; for that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of perdition,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you this?

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:6 @ And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:7 @ For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:9 @ The coming of the lawless one by the activity of Satan will be with all power and with pretended signs and wonders,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ and with all wicked deception for those who are to perish, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you all.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:17 @ I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. This is the mark in every letter of mine; it is the way I write.

rsv@1Timothy:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by command of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus our hope,

rsv@1Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, my true child in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

rsv@1Timothy:1:3 @ As I urged you when I was going to Macedonia, remain at Ephesus that you may charge certain persons not to teach any different doctrine,

rsv@1Timothy:1:4 @ nor to occupy themselves with myths and endless genealogies which promote speculations rather than the divine training that is in faith;

rsv@1Timothy:1:5 @ whereas the aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and sincere faith.

rsv@1Timothy:1:6 @ Certain persons by swerving from these have wandered away into vain discussion,

rsv@1Timothy:1:7 @ desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make assertions.

rsv@1Timothy:1:8 @ Now we know that the law is good, if any one uses it lawfully,

rsv@1Timothy:1:9 @ understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

rsv@1Timothy:1:10 @ immoral persons, sodomites, kidnapers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine,

rsv@1Timothy:1:11 @ in accordance with the glorious gospel of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.

rsv@1Timothy:1:12 @ I thank him who has given me strength for this, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he judged me faithful by appointing me to his service,

rsv@1Timothy:1:13 @ though I formerly blasphemed and persecuted and insulted him; but I received mercy because I had acted ignorantly in unbelief,

rsv@1Timothy:1:14 @ and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

rsv@1Timothy:1:15 @ The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. And I am the foremost of sinners;

rsv@1Timothy:1:16 @ but I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience for an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life.

rsv@1Timothy:1:17 @ To the King of ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@1Timothy:1:18 @ This charge I commit to you, Timothy, my son, in accordance with the prophetic utterances which pointed to you, that inspired by them you may wage the good warfare,

rsv@1Timothy:1:19 @ holding faith and a good conscience. By rejecting conscience, certain persons have made shipwreck of their faith,

rsv@1Timothy:1:20 @ among them Hymenae'us and Alexander, whom I have delivered to Satan that they may learn not to blaspheme.

rsv@1Timothy:2:1 @ First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men,

rsv@1Timothy:2:2 @ for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life, godly and respectful in every way.

rsv@1Timothy:2:3 @ This is good, and it is acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,

rsv@1Timothy:2:4 @ who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

rsv@1Timothy:2:5 @ For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

rsv@1Timothy:2:6 @ who gave himself as a ransom for all, the testimony to which was borne at the proper time.

rsv@1Timothy:2:7 @ For this I was appointed a preacher and apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

rsv@1Timothy:2:8 @ I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling;

rsv@1Timothy:2:9 @ also that women should adorn themselves modestly and sensibly in seemly apparel, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly attire

rsv@1Timothy:2:10 @ but by good deeds, as befits women who profess religion.

rsv@1Timothy:2:11 @ Let a woman learn in silence with all submissiveness.

rsv@1Timothy:2:12 @ I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over men; she is to keep silent.

rsv@1Timothy:2:13 @ For Adam was formed first, then Eve;

rsv@1Timothy:2:14 @ and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.

rsv@1Timothy:2:15 @ Yet woman will be saved through bearing children, if she continues in faith and love and holiness, with modesty.

rsv@1Timothy:3:1 @ The saying is sure: If any one aspires to the office of bishop, he desires a noble task.

rsv@1Timothy:3:2 @ Now a bishop must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, dignified, hospitable, an apt teacher,

rsv@1Timothy:3:3 @ no drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, and no lover of money.

rsv@1Timothy:3:4 @ He must manage his own household well, keeping his children submissive and respectful in every way;

rsv@1Timothy:3:5 @ for if a man does not know how to manage his own household, how can he care for God's church?

rsv@1Timothy:3:6 @ He must not be a recent convert, or he may be puffed up with conceit and fall into the condemnation of the devil;

rsv@1Timothy:3:7 @ moreover he must be well thought of by outsiders, or he may fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.

rsv@1Timothy:3:8 @ Deacons likewise must be serious, not double-tongued, not addicted to much wine, not greedy for gain;

rsv@1Timothy:3:9 @ they must hold the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience.

rsv@1Timothy:3:10 @ And let them also be tested first; then if they prove themselves blameless let them serve as deacons.

rsv@1Timothy:3:11 @ The women likewise must be serious, no slanderers, but temperate, faithful in all things.

rsv@1Timothy:3:12 @ Let deacons be the husband of one wife, and let them manage their children and their households well;

rsv@1Timothy:3:13 @ for those who serve well as deacons gain a good standing for themselves and also great confidence in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

rsv@1Timothy:3:14 @ I hope to come to you soon, but I am writing these instructions to you so that,

rsv@1Timothy:3:15 @ if I am delayed, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and bulwark of the truth.

rsv@1Timothy:3:16 @ Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of our religion: He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.

rsv@1Timothy:4:1 @ Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons,

rsv@1Timothy:4:2 @ through the pretensions of liars whose consciences are seared,

rsv@1Timothy:4:3 @ who forbid marriage and enjoin abstinence from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

rsv@1Timothy:4:4 @ For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving;

rsv@1Timothy:4:5 @ for then it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer.

rsv@1Timothy:4:6 @ If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed.

rsv@1Timothy:4:7 @ Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness;

rsv@1Timothy:4:8 @ for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.

rsv@1Timothy:4:9 @ The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance.

rsv@1Timothy:4:10 @ For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe.

rsv@1Timothy:4:11 @ Command and teach these things.

rsv@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

rsv@1Timothy:4:13 @ Till I come, attend to the public reading of scripture, to preaching, to teaching.

rsv@1Timothy:4:14 @ Do not neglect the gift you have, which was given you by prophetic utterance when the council of elders laid their hands upon you.

rsv@1Timothy:4:15 @ Practice these duties, devote yourself to them, so that all may see your progress.

rsv@1Timothy:4:16 @ Take heed to yourself and to your teaching; hold to that, for by so doing you will save both yourself and your hearers.

rsv@1Timothy:5:1 @ Do not rebuke an older man but exhort him as you would a father; treat younger men like brothers,

rsv@1Timothy:5:2 @ older women like mothers, younger women like sisters, in all purity.

rsv@1Timothy:5:3 @ Honor widows who are real widows.

rsv@1Timothy:5:4 @ If a widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn their religious duty to their own family and make some return to their parents; for this is acceptable in the sight of God.

rsv@1Timothy:5:5 @ She who is a real widow, and is left all alone, has set her hope on God and continues in supplications and prayers night and day;

rsv@1Timothy:5:6 @ whereas she who is self-indulgent is dead even while she lives.

rsv@1Timothy:5:7 @ Command this, so that they may be without reproach.

rsv@1Timothy:5:8 @ If any one does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his own family, he has disowned the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

rsv@1Timothy:5:9 @ Let a widow be enrolled if she is not less than sixty years of age, having been the wife of one husband;

rsv@1Timothy:5:10 @ and she must be well attested for her good deeds, as one who has brought up children, shown hospitality, washed the feet of the saints, relieved the afflicted, and devoted herself to doing good in every way.

rsv@1Timothy:5:11 @ But refuse to enrol younger widows; for when they grow wanton against Christ they desire to marry,

rsv@1Timothy:5:12 @ and so they incur condemnation for having violated their first pledge.

rsv@1Timothy:5:13 @ Besides that, they learn to be idlers, gadding about from house to house, and not only idlers but gossips and busybodies, saying what they should not.

rsv@1Timothy:5:14 @ So I would have younger widows marry, bear children, rule their households, and give the enemy no occasion to revile us.

rsv@1Timothy:5:15 @ For some have already strayed after Satan.

rsv@1Timothy:5:16 @ If any believing woman has relatives who are widows, let her assist them; let the church not be burdened, so that it may assist those who are real widows.

rsv@1Timothy:5:17 @ Let the elders who rule well be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in preaching and teaching;

rsv@1Timothy:5:18 @ for the scripture says, "You shall not muzzle an ox when it is treading out the grain," and, "The laborer deserves his wages."

rsv@1Timothy:5:19 @ Never admit any charge against an elder except on the evidence of two or three witnesses.

rsv@1Timothy:5:20 @ As for those who persist in sin, rebuke them in the presence of all, so that the rest may stand in fear.

rsv@1Timothy:5:21 @ In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of the elect angels I charge you to keep these rules without favor, doing nothing from partiality.

rsv@1Timothy:5:22 @ Do not be hasty in the laying on of hands, nor participate in another man's sins; keep yourself pure.

rsv@1Timothy:5:23 @ No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.

rsv@1Timothy:5:24 @ The sins of some men are conspicuous, pointing to judgment, but the sins of others appear later.

rsv@1Timothy:5:25 @ So also good deeds are conspicuous; and even when they are not, they cannot remain hidden.

rsv@1Timothy:6:1 @ Let all who are under the yoke of slavery regard their masters as worthy of all honor, so that the name of God and the teaching may not be defamed.

rsv@1Timothy:6:2 @ Those who have believing masters must not be disrespectful on the ground that they are brethren; rather they must serve all the better since those who benefit by their service are believers and beloved. Teach and urge these duties.

rsv@1Timothy:6:3 @ If any one teaches otherwise and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching which accords with godliness,

rsv@1Timothy:6:4 @ he is puffed up with conceit, he knows nothing; he has a morbid craving for controversy and for disputes about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, base suspicions,

rsv@1Timothy:6:5 @ and wrangling among men who are depraved in mind and bereft of the truth, imagining that godliness is a means of gain.

rsv@1Timothy:6:6 @ There is great gain in godliness with contentment;

rsv@1Timothy:6:7 @ for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world;

rsv@1Timothy:6:8 @ but if we have food and clothing, with these we shall be content.

rsv@1Timothy:6:9 @ But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and hurtful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction.

rsv@1Timothy:6:10 @ For the love of money is the root of all evils; it is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced their hearts with many pangs.

rsv@1Timothy:6:11 @ But as for you, man of God, shun all this; aim at righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness.

rsv@1Timothy:6:12 @ Fight the good fight of the faith; take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

rsv@1Timothy:6:13 @ In the presence of God who gives life to all things, and of Christ Jesus who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession,

rsv@1Timothy:6:14 @ I charge you to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ;

rsv@1Timothy:6:15 @ and this will be made manifest at the proper time by the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords,

rsv@1Timothy:6:16 @ who alone has immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.

rsv@1Timothy:6:17 @ As for the rich in this world, charge them not to be haughty, nor to set their hopes on uncertain riches but on God who richly furnishes us with everything to enjoy.

rsv@1Timothy:6:18 @ They are to do good, to be rich in good deeds, liberal and generous,

rsv@1Timothy:6:19 @ thus laying up for themselves a good foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of the life which is life indeed.

rsv@1Timothy:6:20 @ O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you. Avoid the godless chatter and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge,

rsv@1Timothy:6:21 @ for by professing it some have missed the mark as regards the faith. Grace be with you.

rsv@2Timothy:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God according to the promise of the life which is in Christ Jesus,

rsv@2Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

rsv@2Timothy:1:3 @ I thank God whom I serve with a clear conscience, as did my fathers, when I remember you constantly in my prayers.

rsv@2Timothy:1:4 @ As I remember your tears, I long night and day to see you, that I may be filled with joy.

rsv@2Timothy:1:5 @ I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lo'is and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you.

rsv@2Timothy:1:6 @ Hence I remind you to rekindle the gift of God that is within you through the laying on of my hands;

rsv@2Timothy:1:7 @ for God did not give us a spirit of timidity but a spirit of power and love and self-control.

rsv@2Timothy:1:8 @ Do not be ashamed then of testifying to our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but share in suffering for the gospel in the power of God,

rsv@2Timothy:1:9 @ who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not in virtue of our works but in virtue of his own purpose and the grace which he gave us in Christ Jesus ages ago,

rsv@2Timothy:1:10 @ and now has manifested through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.

rsv@2Timothy:1:11 @ For this gospel I was appointed a preacher and apostle and teacher,

rsv@2Timothy:1:12 @ and therefore I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am sure that he is able to guard until that Day what has been entrusted to me.

rsv@2Timothy:1:13 @ Follow the pattern of the sound words which you have heard from me, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus;

rsv@2Timothy:1:14 @ guard the truth that has been entrusted to you by the Holy Spirit who dwells within us.

rsv@2Timothy:1:15 @ You are aware that all who are in Asia turned away from me, and among them Phy'gelus and Hermog'enes.

rsv@2Timothy:1:16 @ May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiph'orus, for he often refreshed me; he was not ashamed of my chains,

rsv@2Timothy:1:17 @ but when he arrived in Rome he searched for me eagerly and found me--

rsv@2Timothy:1:18 @ may the Lord grant him to find mercy from the Lord on that Day--and you well know all the service he rendered at Ephesus.

rsv@2Timothy:2:1 @ You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus,

rsv@2Timothy:2:2 @ and what you have heard from me before many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.

rsv@2Timothy:2:3 @ Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

rsv@2Timothy:2:4 @ No soldier on service gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to satisfy the one who enlisted him.

rsv@2Timothy:2:5 @ An athlete is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules.

rsv@2Timothy:2:6 @ It is the hard-working farmer who ought to have the first share of the crops.

rsv@2Timothy:2:7 @ Think over what I say, for the Lord will grant you understanding in everything.

rsv@2Timothy:2:8 @ Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, descended from David, as preached in my gospel,

rsv@2Timothy:2:9 @ the gospel for which I am suffering and wearing fetters like a criminal. But the word of God is not fettered.

rsv@2Timothy:2:10 @ Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain salvation in Christ Jesus with its eternal glory.

rsv@2Timothy:2:11 @ The saying is sure: If we have died with him, we shall also live with him;

rsv@2Timothy:2:12 @ if we endure, we shall also reign with him; if we deny him, he also will deny us;

rsv@2Timothy:2:13 @ if we are faithless, he remains faithful-- for he cannot deny himself.

rsv@2Timothy:2:14 @ Remind them of this, and charge them before the Lord to avoid disputing about words, which does no good, but only ruins the hearers.

rsv@2Timothy:2:15 @ Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.

rsv@2Timothy:2:16 @ Avoid such godless chatter, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness,

rsv@2Timothy:2:17 @ and their talk will eat its way like gangrene. Among them are Hymenae'us and Phile'tus,

rsv@2Timothy:2:18 @ who have swerved from the truth by holding that the resurrection is past already. They are upsetting the faith of some.

rsv@2Timothy:2:19 @ But God's firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: "The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity."

rsv@2Timothy:2:20 @ In a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and earthenware, and some for noble use, some for ignoble.

rsv@2Timothy:2:21 @ If any one purifies himself from what is ignoble, then he will be a vessel for noble use, consecrated and useful to the master of the house, ready for any good work.

rsv@2Timothy:2:22 @ So shun youthful passions and aim at righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call upon the Lord from a pure heart.

rsv@2Timothy:2:23 @ Have nothing to do with stupid, senseless controversies; you know that they breed quarrels.

rsv@2Timothy:2:24 @ And the Lord's servant must not be quarrelsome but kindly to every one, an apt teacher, forbearing,

rsv@2Timothy:2:25 @ correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant that they will repent and come to know the truth,

rsv@2Timothy:2:26 @ and they may escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will.

rsv@2Timothy:3:1 @ But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of stress.

rsv@2Timothy:3:2 @ For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy,

rsv@2Timothy:3:3 @ inhuman, implacable, slanderers, profligates, fierce, haters of good,

rsv@2Timothy:3:4 @ treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

rsv@2Timothy:3:5 @ holding the form of religion but denying the power of it. Avoid such people.

rsv@2Timothy:3:6 @ For among them are those who make their way into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and swayed by various impulses,

rsv@2Timothy:3:7 @ who will listen to anybody and can never arrive at a knowledge of the truth.

rsv@2Timothy:3:8 @ As Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of corrupt mind and counterfeit faith;

rsv@2Timothy:3:9 @ but they will not get very far, for their folly will be plain to all, as was that of those two men.

rsv@2Timothy:3:10 @ Now you have observed my teaching, my conduct, my aim in life, my faith, my patience, my love, my steadfastness,

rsv@2Timothy:3:11 @ my persecutions, my sufferings, what befell me at Antioch, at Ico'nium, and at Lystra, what persecutions I endured; yet from them all the Lord rescued me.

rsv@2Timothy:3:12 @ Indeed all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,

rsv@2Timothy:3:13 @ while evil men and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceivers and deceived.

rsv@2Timothy:3:14 @ But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it

rsv@2Timothy:3:15 @ and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings which are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

rsv@2Timothy:3:16 @ All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,

rsv@2Timothy:3:17 @ that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

rsv@2Timothy:4:1 @ I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom:

rsv@2Timothy:4:2 @ preach the word, be urgent in season and out of season, convince, rebuke, and exhort, be unfailing in patience and in teaching.

rsv@2Timothy:4:3 @ For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own likings,

rsv@2Timothy:4:4 @ and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander into myths.

rsv@2Timothy:4:5 @ As for you, always be steady, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil your ministry.

rsv@2Timothy:4:6 @ For I am already on the point of being sacrificed; the time of my departure has come.

rsv@2Timothy:4:7 @ I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

rsv@2Timothy:4:8 @ Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that Day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.

rsv@2Timothy:4:9 @ Do your best to come to me soon.

rsv@2Timothy:4:10 @ For Demas, in love with this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessaloni'ca; Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

rsv@2Timothy:4:11 @ Luke alone is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you; for he is very useful in serving me.

rsv@2Timothy:4:12 @ Tych'icus I have sent to Ephesus.

rsv@2Timothy:4:13 @ When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Tro'as, also the books, and above all the parchments.

rsv@2Timothy:4:14 @ Alexander the coppersmith did me great harm; the Lord will requite him for his deeds.

rsv@2Timothy:4:15 @ Beware of him yourself, for he strongly opposed our message.

rsv@2Timothy:4:16 @ At my first defense no one took my part; all deserted me. May it not be charged against them!

rsv@2Timothy:4:17 @ But the Lord stood by me and gave me strength to proclaim the message fully, that all the Gentiles might hear it. So I was rescued from the lion's mouth.

rsv@2Timothy:4:18 @ The Lord will rescue me from every evil and save me for his heavenly kingdom. To him be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@2Timothy:4:19 @ Greet Prisca and Aq'uila, and the household of Onesiph'orus.

rsv@2Timothy:4:20 @ Eras'tus remained at Corinth; Troph'imus I left ill at Mile'tus.

rsv@2Timothy:4:21 @ Do your best to come before winter. Eubu'lus sends greetings to you, as do Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brethren.

rsv@2Timothy:4:22 @ The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you.

rsv@Titus:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to further the faith of God's elect and their knowledge of the truth which accords with godliness,

rsv@Titus:1:2 @ in hope of eternal life which God, who never lies, promised ages ago

rsv@Titus:1:3 @ and at the proper time manifested in his word through the preaching with which I have been entrusted by command of God our Savior;

rsv@Titus:1:4 @ To Titus, my true child in a common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior.

rsv@Titus:1:5 @ This is why I left you in Crete, that you might amend what was defective, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you,

rsv@Titus:1:6 @ if any man is blameless, the husband of one wife, and his children are believers and not open to the charge of being profligate or insubordinate.

rsv@Titus:1:7 @ For a bishop, as God's steward, must be blameless; he must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain,

rsv@Titus:1:8 @ but hospitable, a lover of goodness, master of himself, upright, holy, and self-controlled;

rsv@Titus:1:9 @ he must hold firm to the sure word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and also to confute those who contradict it.

rsv@Titus:1:10 @ For there are many insubordinate men, empty talkers and deceivers, especially the circumcision party;

rsv@Titus:1:11 @ they must be silenced, since they are upsetting whole families by teaching for base gain what they have no right to teach.

rsv@Titus:1:12 @ One of themselves, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons."

rsv@Titus:1:13 @ This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,

rsv@Titus:1:14 @ instead of giving heed to Jewish myths or to commands of men who reject the truth.

rsv@Titus:1:15 @ To the pure all things are pure, but to the corrupt and unbelieving nothing is pure; their very minds and consciences are corrupted.

rsv@Titus:1:16 @ They profess to know God, but they deny him by their deeds; they are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good deed.

rsv@Titus:2:1 @ But as for you, teach what befits sound doctrine.

rsv@Titus:2:2 @ Bid the older men be temperate, serious, sensible, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness.

rsv@Titus:2:3 @ Bid the older women likewise to be reverent in behavior, not to be slanderers or slaves to drink; they are to teach what is good,

rsv@Titus:2:4 @ and so train the young women to love their husbands and children,

rsv@Titus:2:5 @ to be sensible, chaste, domestic, kind, and submissive to their husbands, that the word of God may not be discredited.

rsv@Titus:2:6 @ Likewise urge the younger men to control themselves.

rsv@Titus:2:7 @ Show yourself in all respects a model of good deeds, and in your teaching show integrity, gravity,

rsv@Titus:2:8 @ and sound speech that cannot be censured, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say of us.

rsv@Titus:2:9 @ Bid slaves to be submissive to their masters and to give satisfaction in every respect; they are not to be refractory,

rsv@Titus:2:10 @ nor to pilfer, but to show entire and true fidelity, so that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior.

rsv@Titus:2:11 @ For the grace of God has appeared for the salvation of all men,

rsv@Titus:2:12 @ training us to renounce irreligion and worldly passions, and to live sober, upright, and godly lives in this world,

rsv@Titus:2:13 @ awaiting our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,

rsv@Titus:2:14 @ who gave himself for us to redeem us from all iniquity and to purify for himself a people of his own who are zealous for good deeds.

rsv@Titus:2:15 @ Declare these things; exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one disregard you.

rsv@Titus:3:1 @ Remind them to be submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for any honest work,

rsv@Titus:3:2 @ to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all men.

rsv@Titus:3:3 @ For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by men and hating one another;

rsv@Titus:3:4 @ but when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared,

rsv@Titus:3:5 @ he saved us, not because of deeds done by us in righteousness, but in virtue of his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal in the Holy Spirit,

rsv@Titus:3:6 @ which he poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior,

rsv@Titus:3:7 @ so that we might be justified by his grace and become heirs in hope of eternal life.

rsv@Titus:3:8 @ The saying is sure. I desire you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to apply themselves to good deeds; these are excellent and profitable to men.

rsv@Titus:3:9 @ But avoid stupid controversies, genealogies, dissensions, and quarrels over the law, for they are unprofitable and futile.

rsv@Titus:3:10 @ As for a man who is factious, after admonishing him once or twice, have nothing more to do with him,

rsv@Titus:3:11 @ knowing that such a person is perverted and sinful; he is self-condemned.

rsv@Titus:3:12 @ When I send Artemas or Tych'icus to you, do your best to come to me at Nicop'olis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.

rsv@Titus:3:13 @ Do your best to speed Zenas the lawyer and Apol'los on their way; see that they lack nothing.

rsv@Titus:3:14 @ And let our people learn to apply themselves to good deeds, so as to help cases of urgent need, and not to be unfruitful.

rsv@Titus:3:15 @ All who are with me send greetings to you. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.

rsv@Philemon:1:1 @ Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, To Phile'mon our beloved fellow worker

rsv@Philemon:1:22 @ At the same time, prepare a guest room for me, for I am hoping through your prayers to be granted to you.

rsv@Philemon:1:23 @ Ep'aphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends greetings to you,

rsv@Hebrews:1:3 @ He reflects the glory of God and bears the very stamp of his nature, upholding the universe by his word of power. When he had made purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,

rsv@Hebrews:1:13 @ But to what angel has he ever said, "Sit at my right hand, till I make thy enemies a stool for thy feet"?

rsv@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to serve, for the sake of those who are to obtain salvation?

rsv@Hebrews:2:1 @ Therefore we must pay the closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it.

rsv@Hebrews:2:2 @ For if the message declared by angels was valid and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution,

rsv@Hebrews:2:3 @ how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard him,

rsv@Hebrews:2:6 @ It has been testified somewhere, "What is man that thou art mindful of him, or the son of man, that thou carest for him?

rsv@Hebrews:2:8 @ putting everything in subjection under his feet." Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. As it is, we do not yet see everything in subjection to him.

rsv@Hebrews:2:10 @ For it was fitting that he, for whom and by whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through suffering.

rsv@Hebrews:2:11 @ For he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified have all one origin. That is why he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

rsv@Hebrews:2:12 @ saying, "I will proclaim thy name to my brethren, in the midst of the congregation I will praise thee."

rsv@Hebrews:2:17 @ Therefore he had to be made like his brethren in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make expiation for the sins of the people.

rsv@Hebrews:3:5 @ Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later,

rsv@Hebrews:3:8 @ do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness,

rsv@Hebrews:3:10 @ Therefore I was provoked with that generation, and said, `They always go astray in their hearts; they have not known my ways.'

rsv@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we who have believed enter that rest, as he has said, "As I swore in my wrath, `They shall never enter my rest,'" although his works were finished from the foundation of the world.

rsv@Hebrews:4:12 @ For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and spirit, of joints and marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

rsv@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

rsv@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to act on behalf of men in relation to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins.

rsv@Hebrews:5:7 @ In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to him who was able to save him from death, and he was heard for his godly fear.

rsv@Hebrews:5:9 @ and being made perfect he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him,

rsv@Hebrews:5:12 @ For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need some one to teach you again the first principles of God's word. You need milk, not solid food;

rsv@Hebrews:5:14 @ But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their faculties trained by practice to distinguish good from evil.

rsv@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,

rsv@Hebrews:6:2 @ with instruction about ablutions, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.

rsv@Hebrews:6:7 @ For land which has drunk the rain that often falls upon it, and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God.

rsv@Hebrews:6:9 @ Though we speak thus, yet in your case, beloved, we feel sure of better things that belong to salvation.

rsv@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not so unjust as to overlook your work and the love which you showed for his sake in serving the saints, as you still do.

rsv@Hebrews:6:11 @ And we desire each one of you to show the same earnestness in realizing the full assurance of hope until the end,

rsv@Hebrews:6:12 @ so that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

rsv@Hebrews:6:14 @ saying, "Surely I will bless you and multiply you."

rsv@Hebrews:6:15 @ And thus Abraham, having patiently endured, obtained the promise.

rsv@Hebrews:6:16 @ Men indeed swear by a greater than themselves, and in all their disputes an oath is final for confirmation.

rsv@Hebrews:7:2 @ and to him Abraham apportioned a tenth part of everything. He is first, by translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then he is also king of Salem, that is, king of peace.

rsv@Hebrews:7:3 @ He is without father or mother or genealogy, and has neither beginning of days nor end of life, but resembling the Son of God he continues a priest for ever.

rsv@Hebrews:7:4 @ See how great he is! Abraham the patriarch gave him a tithe of the spoils.

rsv@Hebrews:7:5 @ And those descendants of Levi who receive the priestly office have a commandment in the law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brethren, though these also are descended from Abraham.

rsv@Hebrews:7:6 @ But this man who has not their genealogy received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.

rsv@Hebrews:7:8 @ Here tithes are received by mortal men; there, by one of whom it is testified that he lives.

rsv@Hebrews:7:9 @ One might even say that Levi himself, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham,

rsv@Hebrews:7:10 @ for he was still in the loins of his ancestor when Melchiz'edek met him.

rsv@Hebrews:7:11 @ Now if perfection had been attainable through the Levit'ical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need would there have been for another priest to arise after the order of Melchiz'edek, rather than one named after the order of Aaron?

rsv@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.

rsv@Hebrews:7:16 @ who has become a priest, not according to a legal requirement concerning bodily descent but by the power of an indestructible life.

rsv@Hebrews:7:23 @ The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office;

rsv@Hebrews:7:24 @ but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues for ever.

rsv@Hebrews:7:25 @ Consequently he is able for all time to save those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.

rsv@Hebrews:7:26 @ For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, blameless, unstained, separated from sinners, exalted above the heavens.

rsv@Hebrews:8:9 @ not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they did not continue in my covenant, and so I paid no heed to them, says the Lord.

rsv@Hebrews:8:12 @ For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more."

rsv@Hebrews:9:1 @ Now even the first covenant had regulations for worship and an earthly sanctuary.

rsv@Hebrews:9:6 @ These preparations having thus been made, the priests go continually into the outer tent, performing their ritual duties;

rsv@Hebrews:9:8 @ By this the Holy Spirit indicates that the way into the sanctuary is not yet opened as long as the outer tent is still standing

rsv@Hebrews:9:10 @ but deal only with food and drink and various ablutions, regulations for the body imposed until the time of reformation.

rsv@Hebrews:9:11 @ But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation)

rsv@Hebrews:9:12 @ he entered once for all into the Holy Place, taking not the blood of goats and calves but his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.

rsv@Hebrews:9:13 @ For if the sprinkling of defiled persons with the blood of goats and bulls and with the ashes of a heifer sanctifies for the purification of the flesh,

rsv@Hebrews:9:18 @ Hence even the first covenant was not ratified without blood.

rsv@Hebrews:9:26 @ for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the age to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

rsv@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.

rsv@Hebrews:10:1 @ For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices which are continually offered year after year, make perfect those who draw near.

rsv@Hebrews:10:10 @ And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

rsv@Hebrews:10:12 @ But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,

rsv@Hebrews:10:13 @ then to wait until his enemies should be made a stool for his feet.

rsv@Hebrews:10:14 @ For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are sanctified.

rsv@Hebrews:10:24 @ and let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works,

rsv@Hebrews:10:25 @ not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

rsv@Hebrews:10:28 @ A man who has violated the law of Moses dies without mercy at the testimony of two or three witnesses.

rsv@Hebrews:10:29 @ How much worse punishment do you think will be deserved by the man who has spurned the Son of God, and profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and outraged the Spirit of grace?

rsv@Hebrews:10:33 @ sometimes being publicly exposed to abuse and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated.

rsv@Hebrews:11:1 @ Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

rsv@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, through which he received approval as righteous, God bearing witness by accepting his gifts; he died, but through his faith he is still speaking.

rsv@Hebrews:11:10 @ For he looked forward to the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

rsv@Hebrews:11:19 @ He considered that God was able to raise men even from the dead; hence, figuratively speaking, he did receive him back.

rsv@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith Joseph, at the end of his life, made mention of the exodus of the Israelites and gave directions concerning his burial.

rsv@Hebrews:11:23 @ By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid for three months by his parents, because they saw that the child was beautiful; and they were not afraid of the king's edict.

rsv@Hebrews:11:25 @ choosing rather to share ill-treatment with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin.

rsv@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith the people crossed the Red Sea as if on dry land; but the Egyptians, when they attempted to do the same, were drowned.

rsv@Hebrews:11:32 @ And what more shall I say? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets--

rsv@Hebrews:11:33 @ who through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, received promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

rsv@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women received their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, that they might rise again to a better life.

rsv@Hebrews:11:37 @ They were stoned, they were sawn in two, they were killed with the sword; they went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, afflicted, ill-treated--

rsv@Hebrews:12:3 @ Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.

rsv@Hebrews:12:5 @ And have you forgotten the exhortation which addresses you as sons?-- "My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, nor lose courage when you are punished by him.

rsv@Hebrews:12:6 @ For the Lord disciplines him whom he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives."

rsv@Hebrews:12:7 @ It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

rsv@Hebrews:12:8 @ If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.

rsv@Hebrews:12:10 @ For they disciplined us for a short time at their pleasure, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness.

rsv@Hebrews:13:1 @ Let brotherly love continue.

rsv@Hebrews:13:12 @ So Jesus also suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people through his own blood.

rsv@Hebrews:13:14 @ For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city which is to come.

rsv@Hebrews:13:15 @ Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.

rsv@Hebrews:13:22 @ I appeal to you, brethren, bear with my word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly.

rsv@Hebrews:13:23 @ You should understand that our brother Timothy has been released, with whom I shall see you if he comes soon.

rsv@Hebrews:13:24 @ Greet all your leaders and all the saints. Those who come from Italy send you greetings.

rsv@James:1:1 @ James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion: Greeting.

rsv@James:1:3 @ for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

rsv@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

rsv@James:1:8 @ Let the lowly brother boast in his exaltation,

rsv@James:1:10 @ and the rich in his humiliation, because like the flower of the grass he will pass away.

rsv@James:1:14 @ but each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.

rsv@James:1:17 @ Every good endowment and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.

rsv@James:1:27 @ Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.

rsv@James:2:1 @ My brethren, show no partiality as you hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory.

rsv@James:2:3 @ and you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, "Have a seat here, please," while you say to the poor man, "Stand there," or, "Sit at my feet,"

rsv@James:2:4 @ have you not made distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

rsv@James:2:9 @ But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

rsv@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he offered his son Isaac upon the altar?

rsv@James:2:22 @ You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by works,

rsv@James:2:24 @ You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.

rsv@James:2:25 @ And in the same way was not also Rahab the harlot justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

rsv@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire. The tongue is an unrighteous world among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the cycle of nature, and set on fire by hell.

rsv@James:3:7 @ For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by humankind,

rsv@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth.

rsv@James:3:16 @ For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice.

rsv@James:4:1 @ What causes wars, and what causes fightings among you? Is it not your passions that are at war in your members?

rsv@James:4:9 @ Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to dejection.

rsv@James:4:14 @ whereas you do not know about tomorrow. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.

rsv@James:4:16 @ As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.

rsv@James:5:7 @ Be patient, therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it until it receives the early and the late rain.

rsv@James:5:8 @ You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

rsv@James:5:10 @ As an example of suffering and patience, brethren, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord.

rsv@James:5:12 @ But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath, but let your yes be yes and your no be no, that you may not fall under condemnation.

rsv@James:5:14 @ Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;

rsv@James:5:20 @ let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.

rsv@1Peter:1:1 @ Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To the exiles of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappado'cia, Asia, and Bithyn'ia,

rsv@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! By his great mercy we have been born anew to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

rsv@1Peter:1:5 @ who by God's power are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

rsv@1Peter:1:7 @ so that the genuineness of your faith, more precious than gold which though perishable is tested by fire, may redound to praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Peter:1:9 @ As the outcome of your faith you obtain the salvation of your souls.

rsv@1Peter:1:10 @ The prophets who prophesied of the grace that was to be yours searched and inquired about this salvation;

rsv@1Peter:1:11 @ they inquired what person or time was indicated by the Spirit of Christ within them when predicting the sufferings of Christ and the subsequent glory.

rsv@1Peter:1:13 @ Therefore gird up your minds, be sober, set your hope fully upon the grace that is coming to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Peter:1:17 @ And if you invoke as Father him who judges each one impartially according to his deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your exile.

rsv@1Peter:1:18 @ You know that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your fathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold,

rsv@1Peter:1:20 @ He was destined before the foundation of the world but was made manifest at the end of the times for your sake.

rsv@1Peter:2:2 @ Like newborn babes, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up to salvation;

rsv@1Peter:2:8 @ and "A stone that will make men stumble, a rock that will make them fall"; for they stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do.

rsv@1Peter:2:9 @ But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's own people, that you may declare the wonderful deeds of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

rsv@1Peter:2:12 @ Maintain good conduct among the Gentiles, so that in case they speak against you as wrongdoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.

rsv@1Peter:2:20 @ For what credit is it, if when you do wrong and are beaten for it you take it patiently? But if when you do right and suffer for it you take it patiently, you have God's approval.

rsv@1Peter:3:3 @ Let not yours be the outward adorning with braiding of hair, decoration of gold, and wearing of fine clothing,

rsv@1Peter:3:20 @ who formerly did not obey, when God's patience waited in the days of Noah, during the building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were saved through water.

rsv@1Peter:3:21 @ Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you, not as a removal of dirt from the body but as an appeal to God for a clear conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

rsv@2Peter:1:17 @ For when he received honor and glory from God the Father and the voice was borne to him by the Majestic Glory, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased,"

rsv@2Peter:1:19 @ And we have the prophetic word made more sure. You will do well to pay attention to this as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

rsv@2Peter:1:20 @ First of all you must understand this, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation,

rsv@2Peter:2:1 @ But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.

rsv@2Peter:2:2 @ And many will follow their licentiousness, and because of them the way of truth will be reviled.

rsv@2Peter:2:3 @ And in their greed they will exploit you with false words; from of old their condemnation has not been idle, and their destruction has not been asleep.

rsv@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare the angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of nether gloom to be kept until the judgment;

rsv@2Peter:2:6 @ if by turning the cities of Sodom and Gomor'rah to ashes he condemned them to extinction and made them an example to those who were to be ungodly;

rsv@2Peter:2:7 @ and if he rescued righteous Lot, greatly distressed by the licentiousness of the wicked

rsv@2Peter:2:9 @ then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trial, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment,

rsv@2Peter:2:12 @ But these, like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and killed, reviling in matters of which they are ignorant, will be destroyed in the same destruction with them,

rsv@2Peter:2:13 @ suffering wrong for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their dissipation, carousing with you.

rsv@2Peter:2:14 @ They have eyes full of adultery, insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children!

rsv@2Peter:2:18 @ For, uttering loud boasts of folly, they entice with licentious passions of the flesh men who have barely escaped from those who live in error.

rsv@2Peter:2:19 @ They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption; for whatever overcomes a man, to that he is enslaved.

rsv@2Peter:3:2 @ that you should remember the predictions of the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles.

rsv@2Peter:3:4 @ and saying, "Where is the promise of his coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things have continued as they were from the beginning of creation."

rsv@2Peter:3:7 @ But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist have been stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

rsv@2Peter:3:12 @ waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be kindled and dissolved, and the elements will melt with fire!

rsv@2Peter:3:15 @ And count the forbearance of our Lord as salvation. So also our beloved brother Paul wrote to you according to the wisdom given him,

rsv@2Peter:3:16 @ speaking of this as he does in all his letters. There are some things in them hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other scriptures.

rsv@1John:1:2 @ the life was made manifest, and we saw it, and testify to it, and proclaim to you the eternal life which was with the Father and was made manifest to us--

rsv@1John:1:4 @ And we are writing this that our joy may be complete.

rsv@1John:2:1 @ My little children, I am writing this to you so that you may not sin; but if any one does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous;

rsv@1John:2:2 @ and he is the expiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.

rsv@1John:2:7 @ Beloved, I am writing you no new commandment, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word which you have heard.

rsv@1John:2:8 @ Yet I am writing you a new commandment, which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining.

rsv@1John:2:9 @ He who says he is in the light and hates his brother is in the darkness still.

rsv@1John:2:12 @ I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for his sake.

rsv@1John:2:13 @ I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, children, because you know the Father.

rsv@1John:2:18 @ Children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come; therefore we know that it is the last hour.

rsv@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out, that it might be plain that they all are not of us.

rsv@1John:2:22 @ Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son.

rsv@1John:2:27 @ but the anointing which you received from him abides in you, and you have no need that any one should teach you; as his anointing teaches you about everything, and is true, and is no lie, just as it has taught you, abide in him.

rsv@1John:4:3 @ and every spirit which does not confess Jesus is not of God. This is the spirit of antichrist, of which you heard that it was coming, and now it is in the world already.

rsv@1John:4:10 @ In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the expiation for our sins.

rsv@1John:4:14 @ And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son as the Savior of the world.

rsv@1John:5:9 @ If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for this is the testimony of God that he has borne witness to his Son.

rsv@1John:5:10 @ He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has borne to his Son.

rsv@1John:5:11 @ And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

rsv@1John:5:16 @ If any one sees his brother committing what is not a mortal sin, he will ask, and God will give him life for those whose sin is not mortal. There is sin which is mortal; I do not say that one is to pray for that.

rsv@2John:1:5 @ And now I beg you, lady, not as though I were writing you a new commandment, but the one we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.

rsv@2John:1:7 @ For many deceivers have gone out into the world, men who will not acknowledge the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh; such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist.

rsv@2John:1:10 @ If any one comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into the house or give him any greeting;

rsv@3John:1:3 @ For I greatly rejoiced when some of the brethren arrived and testified to the truth of your life, as indeed you do follow the truth.

rsv@3John:1:6 @ who have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their journey as befits God's service.

rsv@3John:1:10 @ So if I come, I will bring up what he is doing, prating against me with evil words. And not content with that, he refuses himself to welcome the brethren, and also stops those who want to welcome them and puts them out of the church.

rsv@3John:1:12 @ Deme'trius has testimony from every one, and from the truth itself; I testify to him too, and you know my testimony is true.

rsv@Jude:1:2 @ May mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you.

rsv@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, being very eager to write to you of our common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.

rsv@Jude:1:4 @ For admission has been secretly gained by some who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly persons who pervert the grace of our God into licentiousness and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

rsv@Jude:1:6 @ And the angels that did not keep their own position but left their proper dwelling have been kept by him in eternal chains in the nether gloom until the judgment of the great day;

rsv@Jude:1:7 @ just as Sodom and Gomor'rah and the surrounding cities, which likewise acted immorally and indulged in unnatural lust, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire.

rsv@Jude:1:10 @ But these men revile whatever they do not understand, and by those things that they know by instinct as irrational animals do, they are destroyed.

rsv@Jude:1:13 @ wild waves of the sea, casting up the foam of their own shame; wandering stars for whom the nether gloom of darkness has been reserved for ever.

rsv@Jude:1:14 @ It was of these also that Enoch in the seventh generation from Adam prophesied, saying, "Behold, the Lord came with his holy myriads,

rsv@Jude:1:17 @ But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

rsv@Revelation:1:2 @ who bore witness to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all that he saw.

rsv@Revelation:1:3 @ Blessed is he who reads aloud the words of the prophecy, and blessed are those who hear, and who keep what is written therein; for the time is near.

rsv@Revelation:1:4 @ John to the seven churches that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven spirits who are before his throne,

rsv@Revelation:1:5 @ and from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the first-born of the dead, and the ruler of kings on earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood

rsv@Revelation:1:6 @ and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@Revelation:1:7 @ Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, every one who pierced him; and all tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Even so. Amen.

rsv@Revelation:1:9 @ I John, your brother, who share with you in Jesus the tribulation and the kingdom and the patient endurance, was on the island called Patmos on account of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.

rsv@Revelation:1:11 @ saying, "Write what you see in a book and send it to the seven churches, to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Per'gamum and to Thyati'ra and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to La-odice'a."

rsv@Revelation:1:12 @ Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me, and on turning I saw seven golden lampstands,

rsv@Revelation:1:13 @ and in the midst of the lampstands one like a son of man, clothed with a long robe and with a golden girdle round his breast;

rsv@Revelation:1:14 @ his head and his hair were white as white wool, white as snow; his eyes were like a flame of fire,

rsv@Revelation:7:9 @ After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no man could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands,

rsv@Revelation:7:10 @ and crying out with a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God who sits upon the throne, and to the Lamb!"

rsv@Revelation:7:11 @ And all the angels stood round the throne and round the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,

rsv@Revelation:7:12 @ saying, "Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen."

rsv@Revelation:7:13 @ Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, "Who are these, clothed in white robes, and whence have they come?"

rsv@Revelation:7:14 @ I said to him, "Sir, you know." And he said to me, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

rsv@Revelation:7:15 @ Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night within his temple; and he who sits upon the throne will shelter them with his presence.

rsv@Revelation:7:16 @ They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; the sun shall not strike them, nor any scorching heat.

rsv@Revelation:7:17 @ For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of living water; and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."

rsv@Revelation:8:1 @ When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.

rsv@Revelation:8:2 @ Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.

rsv@Revelation:8:3 @ And another angel came and stood at the altar with a golden censer; and he was given much incense to mingle with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar before the throne;

rsv@Revelation:8:4 @ and the smoke of the incense rose with the prayers of the saints from the hand of the angel before God.

rsv@Revelation:8:5 @ Then the angel took the censer and filled it with fire from the altar and threw it on the earth; and there were peals of thunder, voices, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.

rsv@Revelation:8:6 @ Now the seven angels who had the seven trumpets made ready to blow them.

rsv@Revelation:8:7 @ The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, which fell on the earth; and a third of the earth was burnt up, and a third of the trees were burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

rsv@Revelation:8:8 @ The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea;

rsv@Revelation:8:9 @ and a third of the sea became blood, a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.

rsv@Revelation:8:10 @ The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the fountains of water.

rsv@Revelation:8:11 @ The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many men died of the water, because it was made bitter.

rsv@Revelation:8:12 @ The fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of their light was darkened; a third of the day was kept from shining, and likewise a third of the night.

rsv@Revelation:8:13 @ Then I looked, and I heard an eagle crying with a loud voice, as it flew in midheaven, "Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, at the blasts of the other trumpets which the three angels are about to blow!"

rsv@Revelation:9:1 @ And the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star fallen from heaven to earth, and he was given the key of the shaft of the bottomless pit;

rsv@Revelation:9:2 @ he opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and from the shaft rose smoke like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke from the shaft.

rsv@Revelation:9:3 @ Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth;

rsv@Revelation:9:4 @ they were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green growth or any tree, but only those of mankind who have not the seal of God upon their foreheads;

rsv@Revelation:9:5 @ they were allowed to torture them for five months, but not to kill them, and their torture was like the torture of a scorpion, when it stings a man.

rsv@Revelation:9:6 @ And in those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, and death will fly from them.

rsv@Revelation:9:7 @ In appearance the locusts were like horses arrayed for battle; on their heads were what looked like crowns of gold; their faces were like human faces,

rsv@Revelation:9:8 @ their hair like women's hair, and their teeth like lions' teeth;

rsv@Revelation:9:9 @ they had scales like iron breastplates, and the noise of their wings was like the noise of many chariots with horses rushing into battle.

rsv@Revelation:9:10 @ They have tails like scorpions, and stings, and their power of hurting men for five months lies in their tails.

rsv@Revelation:9:11 @ They have as king over them the angel of the bottomless pit; his name in Hebrew is Abad'don, and in Greek he is called Apol'lyon.

rsv@Revelation:9:12 @ The first woe has passed; behold, two woes are still to come.

rsv@Revelation:9:13 @ Then the sixth angel blew his trumpet, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God,

rsv@Revelation:9:14 @ saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, "Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphra'tes."

rsv@Revelation:9:15 @ So the four angels were released, who had been held ready for the hour, the day, the month, and the year, to kill a third of mankind.

rsv@Revelation:9:16 @ The number of the troops of cavalry was twice ten thousand times ten thousand; I heard their number.

rsv@Revelation:9:17 @ And this was how I saw the horses in my vision: the riders wore breastplates the color of fire and of sapphire and of sulphur, and the heads of the horses were like lions' heads, and fire and smoke and sulphur issued from their mouths.

rsv@Revelation:9:18 @ By these three plagues a third of mankind was killed, by the fire and smoke and sulphur issuing from their mouths.

rsv@Revelation:9:19 @ For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails; their tails are like serpents, with heads, and by means of them they wound.

rsv@Revelation:9:20 @ The rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands nor give up worshiping demons and idols of gold and silver and bronze and stone and wood, which cannot either see or hear or walk;

rsv@Revelation:9:21 @ nor did they repent of their murders or their sorceries or their immorality or their thefts.

rsv@Revelation:10:1 @ Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven, wrapped in a cloud, with a rainbow over his head, and his face was like the sun, and his legs like pillars of fire.

rsv@Revelation:10:2 @ He had a little scroll open in his hand. And he set his right foot on the sea, and his left foot on the land,

rsv@Revelation:10:3 @ and called out with a loud voice, like a lion roaring; when he called out, the seven thunders sounded.

rsv@Revelation:10:4 @ And when the seven thunders had sounded, I was about to write, but I heard a voice from heaven saying, "Seal up what the seven thunders have said, and do not write it down."

rsv@Revelation:10:5 @ And the angel whom I saw standing on sea and land lifted up his right hand to heaven

rsv@Revelation:10:6 @ and swore by him who lives for ever and ever, who created heaven and what is in it, the earth and what is in it, and the sea and what is in it, that there should be no more delay,

rsv@Revelation:10:7 @ but that in the days of the trumpet call to be sounded by the seventh angel, the mystery of God, as he announced to his servants the prophets, should be fulfilled.

rsv@Revelation:10:8 @ Then the voice which I had heard from heaven spoke to me again, saying, "Go, take the scroll which is open in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land."

rsv@Revelation:10:9 @ So I went to the angel and told him to give me the little scroll; and he said to me, "Take it and eat; it will be bitter to your stomach, but sweet as honey in your mouth."

rsv@Revelation:10:10 @ And I took the little scroll from the hand of the angel and ate it; it was sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I had eaten it my stomach was made bitter.

rsv@Revelation:10:11 @ And I was told, "You must again prophesy about many peoples and nations and tongues and kings."

rsv@Revelation:11:1 @ Then I was given a measuring rod like a staff, and I was told: "Rise and measure the temple of God and the altar and those who worship there,

rsv@Revelation:11:2 @ but do not measure the court outside the temple; leave that out, for it is given over to the nations, and they will trample over the holy city for forty-two months.

rsv@Revelation:11:3 @ And I will grant my two witnesses power to prophesy for one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth."

rsv@Revelation:11:4 @ These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands which stand before the Lord of the earth.

rsv@Revelation:11:5 @ And if any one would harm them, fire pours out from their mouth and consumes their foes; if any one would harm them, thus he is doomed to be killed.

rsv@Revelation:11:6 @ They have power to shut the sky, that no rain may fall during the days of their prophesying, and they have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and to smite the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.

rsv@Revelation:11:7 @ And when they have finished their testimony, the beast that ascends from the bottomless pit will make war upon them and conquer them and kill them,

rsv@Revelation:11:8 @ and their dead bodies will lie in the street of the great city which is allegorically called Sodom and Egypt, where their Lord was crucified.

rsv@Revelation:11:9 @ For three days and a half men from the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations gaze at their dead bodies and refuse to let them be placed in a tomb,

rsv@Revelation:11:10 @ and those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them and make merry and exchange presents, because these two prophets had been a torment to those who dwell on the earth.

rsv@Revelation:11:11 @ But after the three and a half days a breath of life from God entered them, and they stood up on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them.

rsv@Revelation:11:12 @ Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up hither!" And in the sight of their foes they went up to heaven in a cloud.

rsv@Revelation:11:13 @ And at that hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell; seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.

rsv@Revelation:11:14 @ The second woe has passed; behold, the third woe is soon to come.

rsv@Revelation:11:15 @ Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign for ever and ever."

rsv@Revelation:11:16 @ And the twenty-four elders who sit on their thrones before God fell on their faces and worshiped God,

rsv@Revelation:11:17 @ saying, "We give thanks to thee, Lord God Almighty, who art and who wast, that thou hast taken thy great power and begun to reign.

rsv@Revelation:11:18 @ The nations raged, but thy wrath came, and the time for the dead to be judged, for rewarding thy servants, the prophets and saints, and those who fear thy name, both small and great, and for destroying the destroyers of the earth."

rsv@Revelation:11:19 @ Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple; and there were flashes of lightning, voices, peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail.

rsv@Revelation:12:1 @ And a great portent appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars;

rsv@Revelation:12:2 @ she was with child and she cried out in her pangs of birth, in anguish for delivery.

rsv@Revelation:12:3 @ And another portent appeared in heaven; behold, a great red dragon, with seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems upon his heads.

rsv@Revelation:12:4 @ His tail swept down a third of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to bear a child, that he might devour her child when she brought it forth;

rsv@Revelation:12:5 @ she brought forth a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne,

rsv@Revelation:12:6 @ and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, in which to be nourished for one thousand two hundred and sixty days.

rsv@Revelation:12:7 @ Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought,

rsv@Revelation:12:8 @ but they were defeated and there was no longer any place for them in heaven.

rsv@Revelation:12:9 @ And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world--he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.

rsv@Revelation:12:10 @ And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God.

rsv@Revelation:12:11 @ And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death.

rsv@Revelation:12:12 @ Rejoice then, O heaven and you that dwell therein! But woe to you, O earth and sea, for the devil has come down to you in great wrath, because he knows that his time is short!"

rsv@Revelation:12:13 @ And when the dragon saw that he had been thrown down to the earth, he pursued the woman who had borne the male child.

rsv@Revelation:12:14 @ But the woman was given the two wings of the great eagle that she might fly from the serpent into the wilderness, to the place where she is to be nourished for a time, and times, and half a time.

rsv@Revelation:12:15 @ The serpent poured water like a river out of his mouth after the woman, to sweep her away with the flood.

rsv@Revelation:12:16 @ But the earth came to the help of the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed the river which the dragon had poured from his mouth.

rsv@Revelation:12:17 @ Then the dragon was angry with the woman, and went off to make war on the rest of her offspring, on those who keep the commandments of God and bear testimony to Jesus. And he stood on the sand of the sea.

rsv@Revelation:13:1 @ And I saw a beast rising out of the sea, with ten horns and seven heads, with ten diadems upon its horns and a blasphemous name upon its heads.

rsv@Revelation:13:2 @ And the beast that I saw was like a leopard, its feet were like a bear's, and its mouth was like a lion's mouth. And to it the dragon gave his power and his throne and great authority.

rsv@Revelation:13:3 @ One of its heads seemed to have a mortal wound, but its mortal wound was healed, and the whole earth followed the beast with wonder.

rsv@Revelation:13:4 @ Men worshiped the dragon, for he had given his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, "Who is like the beast, and who can fight against it?"

rsv@Revelation:13:5 @ And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous words, and it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months;

rsv@Revelation:13:6 @ it opened its mouth to utter blasphemies against God, blaspheming his name and his dwelling, that is, those who dwell in heaven.

rsv@Revelation:13:7 @ Also it was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer them. And authority was given it over every tribe and people and tongue and nation,

rsv@Revelation:13:8 @ and all who dwell on earth will worship it, every one whose name has not been written before the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb that was slain.

rsv@Revelation:13:9 @ If any one has an ear, let him hear:

rsv@Revelation:13:10 @ If any one is to be taken captive, to captivity he goes; if any one slays with the sword, with the sword must he be slain. Here is a call for the endurance and faith of the saints.

rsv@Revelation:13:11 @ Then I saw another beast which rose out of the earth; it had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon.

rsv@Revelation:13:12 @ It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence, and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed.

rsv@Revelation:13:13 @ It works great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in the sight of men;

rsv@Revelation:13:14 @ and by the signs which it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast, it deceives those who dwell on earth, bidding them make an image for the beast which was wounded by the sword and yet lived;

rsv@Revelation:13:15 @ and it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast so that the image of the beast should even speak, and to cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain.

rsv@Revelation:13:16 @ Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead,

rsv@Revelation:13:17 @ so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.

rsv@Revelation:13:18 @ This calls for wisdom: let him who has understanding reckon the number of the beast, for it is a human number, its number is six hundred and sixty-six.

rsv@Revelation:14:1 @ Then I looked, and lo, on Mount Zion stood the Lamb, and with him a hundred and forty-four thousand who had his name and his Father's name written on their foreheads.

rsv@Revelation:14:2 @ And I heard a voice from heaven like the sound of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder; the voice I heard was like the sound of harpers playing on their harps,

rsv@Revelation:14:3 @ and they sing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and before the elders. No one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who had been redeemed from the earth.

rsv@Revelation:14:4 @ It is these who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are chaste; it is these who follow the Lamb wherever he goes; these have been redeemed from mankind as first fruits for God and the Lamb,

rsv@Revelation:14:5 @ and in their mouth no lie was found, for they are spotless.

rsv@Revelation:14:6 @ Then I saw another angel flying in midheaven, with an eternal gospel to proclaim to those who dwell on earth, to every nation and tribe and tongue and people;

rsv@Revelation:14:7 @ and he said with a loud voice, "Fear God and give him glory, for the hour of his judgment has come; and worship him who made heaven and earth, the sea and the fountains of water."

rsv@Revelation:14:8 @ Another angel, a second, followed, saying, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who made all nations drink the wine of her impure passion."

rsv@Revelation:14:9 @ And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a loud voice, "If any one worships the beast and its image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand,

rsv@Revelation:14:10 @ he also shall drink the wine of God's wrath, poured unmixed into the cup of his anger, and he shall be tormented with fire and sulphur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

rsv@Revelation:14:11 @ And the smoke of their torment goes up for ever and ever; and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name."

rsv@Revelation:14:12 @ Here is a call for the endurance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

rsv@Revelation:14:13 @ And I heard a voice from heaven saying, "Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord henceforth." "Blessed indeed," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!"

rsv@Revelation:14:14 @ Then I looked, and lo, a white cloud, and seated on the cloud one like a son of man, with a golden crown on his head, and a sharp sickle in his hand.

rsv@Revelation:14:15 @ And another angel came out of the temple, calling with a loud voice to him who sat upon the cloud, "Put in your sickle, and reap, for the hour to reap has come, for the harvest of the earth is fully ripe."

rsv@Revelation:14:16 @ So he who sat upon the cloud swung his sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped.

rsv@Revelation:14:17 @ And another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle.

rsv@Revelation:14:18 @ Then another angel came out from the altar, the angel who has power over fire, and he called with a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, "Put in your sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for its grapes are ripe."

rsv@Revelation:14:19 @ So the angel swung his sickle on the earth and gathered the vintage of the earth, and threw it into the great wine press of the wrath of God;

rsv@Revelation:14:20 @ and the wine press was trodden outside the city, and blood flowed from the wine press, as high as a horse's bridle, for one thousand six hundred stadia.

rsv@Revelation:15:1 @ Then I saw another portent in heaven, great and wonderful, seven angels with seven plagues, which are the last, for with them the wrath of God is ended.

rsv@Revelation:15:2 @ And I saw what appeared to be a sea of glass mingled with fire, and those who had conquered the beast and its image and the number of its name, standing beside the sea of glass with harps of God in their hands.

rsv@Revelation:15:3 @ And they sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, "Great and wonderful are thy deeds, O Lord God the Almighty! Just and true are thy ways, O King of the ages!

rsv@Revelation:15:4 @ Who shall not fear and glorify thy name, O Lord? For thou alone art holy. All nations shall come and worship thee, for thy judgments have been revealed."

rsv@Revelation:15:5 @ After this I looked, and the temple of the tent of witness in heaven was opened,

rsv@Revelation:15:6 @ and out of the temple came the seven angels with the seven plagues, robed in pure bright linen, and their breasts girded with golden girdles.

rsv@Revelation:15:7 @ And one of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God who lives for ever and ever;

rsv@Revelation:15:8 @ and the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power, and no one could enter the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels were ended.

rsv@Revelation:16:1 @ Then I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, "Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God."

rsv@Revelation:16:2 @ So the first angel went and poured his bowl on the earth, and foul and evil sores came upon the men who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.

rsv@Revelation:16:3 @ The second angel poured his bowl into the sea, and it became like the blood of a dead man, and every living thing died that was in the sea.

rsv@Revelation:16:4 @ The third angel poured his bowl into the rivers and the fountains of water, and they became blood.

rsv@Revelation:16:5 @ And I heard the angel of water say, "Just art thou in these thy judgments, thou who art and wast, O Holy One.

rsv@Revelation:16:6 @ For men have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink. It is their due!"

rsv@Revelation:16:7 @ And I heard the altar cry, "Yea, Lord God the Almighty, true and just are thy judgments!"

rsv@Revelation:16:8 @ The fourth angel poured his bowl on the sun, and it was allowed to scorch men with fire;

rsv@Revelation:16:9 @ men were scorched by the fierce heat, and they cursed the name of God who had power over these plagues, and they did not repent and give him glory.

rsv@Revelation:16:10 @ The fifth angel poured his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was in darkness; men gnawed their tongues in anguish

rsv@Revelation:16:11 @ and cursed the God of heaven for their pain and sores, and did not repent of their deeds.

rsv@Revelation:16:12 @ The sixth angel poured his bowl on the great river Euphra'tes, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east.

rsv@Revelation:16:13 @ And I saw, issuing from the mouth of the dragon and from the mouth of the beast and from the mouth of the false prophet, three foul spirits like frogs;

rsv@Revelation:16:14 @ for they are demonic spirits, performing signs, who go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty.

rsv@Revelation:16:15 @ ("Lo, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is he who is awake, keeping his garments that he may not go naked and be seen exposed!")

rsv@Revelation:16:16 @ And they assembled them at the place which is called in Hebrew Armaged'don.

rsv@Revelation:16:17 @ The seventh angel poured his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple, from the throne, saying, "It is done!"

rsv@Revelation:16:18 @ And there were flashes of lightning, voices, peals of thunder, and a great earthquake such as had never been since men were on the earth, so great was that earthquake.

rsv@Revelation:16:19 @ The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell, and God remembered great Babylon, to make her drain the cup of the fury of his wrath.

rsv@Revelation:16:20 @ And every island fled away, and no mountains were to be found;

rsv@Revelation:16:21 @ and great hailstones, heavy as a hundred-weight, dropped on men from heaven, till men cursed God for the plague of the hail, so fearful was that plague.

rsv@Revelation:17:1 @ Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to me, "Come, I will show you the judgment of the great harlot who is seated upon many waters,

rsv@Revelation:17:2 @ with whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and with the wine of whose fornication the dwellers on earth have become drunk."

rsv@Revelation:17:3 @ And he carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness, and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of blasphemous names, and it had seven heads and ten horns.

rsv@Revelation:17:4 @ The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and bedecked with gold and jewels and pearls, holding in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her fornication;

rsv@Revelation:17:5 @ and on her forehead was written a name of mystery: "Babylon the great, mother of harlots and of earth's abominations."

rsv@Revelation:17:6 @ And I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. When I saw her I marveled greatly.

rsv@Revelation:17:7 @ But the angel said to me, "Why marvel? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast with seven heads and ten horns that carries her.

rsv@Revelation:17:8 @ The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is to ascend from the bottomless pit and go to perdition; and the dwellers on earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, will marvel to behold the beast, because it was and is not and is to come.

rsv@Revelation:17:9 @ This calls for a mind with wisdom: the seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman is seated;

rsv@Revelation:17:10 @ they are also seven kings, five of whom have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come, and when he comes he must remain only a little while.

rsv@Revelation:17:11 @ As for the beast that was and is not, it is an eighth but it belongs to the seven, and it goes to perdition.

rsv@Revelation:17:12 @ And the ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received royal power, but they are to receive authority as kings for one hour, together with the beast.

rsv@Revelation:17:13 @ These are of one mind and give over their power and authority to the beast;

rsv@Revelation:17:14 @ they will make war on the Lamb, and the Lamb will conquer them, for he is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those with him are called and chosen and faithful."

rsv@Revelation:17:15 @ And he said to me, "The waters that you saw, where the harlot is seated, are peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues.

rsv@Revelation:17:16 @ And the ten horns that you saw, they and the beast will hate the harlot; they will make her desolate and naked, and devour her flesh and burn her up with fire,

rsv@Revelation:17:17 @ for God has put it into their hearts to carry out his purpose by being of one mind and giving over their royal power to the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

rsv@Revelation:17:18 @ And the woman that you saw is the great city which has dominion over the kings of the earth."

rsv@Revelation:18:1 @ After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority; and the earth was made bright with his splendor.

rsv@Revelation:18:2 @ And he called out with a mighty voice, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! It has become a dwelling place of demons, a haunt of every foul spirit, a haunt of every foul and hateful bird;

rsv@Revelation:18:3 @ for all nations have drunk the wine of her impure passion, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich with the wealth of her wantonness."

rsv@Revelation:18:4 @ Then I heard another voice from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my people, lest you take part in her sins, lest you share in her plagues;

rsv@Revelation:18:5 @ for her sins are heaped high as heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.

rsv@Revelation:18:6 @ Render to her as she herself has rendered, and repay her double for her deeds; mix a double draught for her in the cup she mixed.

rsv@Revelation:18:7 @ As she glorified herself and played the wanton, so give her a like measure of torment and mourning. Since in her heart she says, `A queen I sit, I am no widow, mourning I shall never see,'

rsv@Revelation:18:8 @ so shall her plagues come in a single day, pestilence and mourning and famine, and she shall be burned with fire; for mighty is the Lord God who judges her."

rsv@Revelation:18:9 @ And the kings of the earth, who committed fornication and were wanton with her, will weep and wail over her when they see the smoke of her burning;

rsv@Revelation:18:10 @ they will stand far off, in fear of her torment, and say, "Alas! alas! thou great city, thou mighty city, Babylon! In one hour has thy judgment come."

rsv@Revelation:18:11 @ And the merchants of the earth weep and mourn for her, since no one buys their cargo any more,

rsv@Revelation:18:12 @ cargo of gold, silver, jewels and pearls, fine linen, purple, silk and scarlet, all kinds of scented wood, all articles of ivory, all articles of costly wood, bronze, iron and marble,

rsv@Revelation:18:13 @ cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh, frankincense, wine, oil, fine flour and wheat, cattle and sheep, horses and chariots, and slaves, that is, human souls.

rsv@Revelation:18:14 @ "The fruit for which thy soul longed has gone from thee, and all thy dainties and thy splendor are lost to thee, never to be found again!"

rsv@Revelation:18:15 @ The merchants of these wares, who gained wealth from her, will stand far off, in fear of her torment, weeping and mourning aloud,

rsv@Revelation:18:16 @ "Alas, alas, for the great city that was clothed in fine linen, in purple and scarlet, bedecked with gold, with jewels, and with pearls!

rsv@Revelation:18:17 @ In one hour all this wealth has been laid waste." And all shipmasters and seafaring men, sailors and all whose trade is on the sea, stood far off

rsv@Revelation:18:18 @ and cried out as they saw the smoke of her burning, "What city was like the great city?"

rsv@Revelation:18:19 @ And they threw dust on their heads, as they wept and mourned, crying out, "Alas, alas, for the great city where all who had ships at sea grew rich by her wealth! In one hour she has been laid waste.

rsv@Revelation:18:20 @ Rejoice over her, O heaven, O saints and apostles and prophets, for God has given judgment for you against her!"

rsv@Revelation:18:21 @ Then a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, "So shall Babylon the great city be thrown down with violence, and shall be found no more;

rsv@Revelation:18:22 @ and the sound of harpers and minstrels, of flute players and trumpeters, shall be heard in thee no more; and a craftsman of any craft shall be found in thee no more; and the sound of the millstone shall be heard in thee no more;

rsv@Revelation:18:23 @ and the light of a lamp shall shine in thee no more; and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall be heard in thee no more; for thy merchants were the great men of the earth, and all nations were deceived by thy sorcery.

rsv@Revelation:18:24 @ And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on earth."

rsv@Revelation:19:1 @ After this I heard what seemed to be the loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying, "Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,

rsv@Revelation:19:2 @ for his judgments are true and just; he has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication, and he has avenged on her the blood of his servants."

rsv@Revelation:19:3 @ Once more they cried, "Hallelujah! The smoke from her goes up for ever and ever."

rsv@Revelation:19:4 @ And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who is seated on the throne, saying, "Amen. Hallelujah!"

rsv@Revelation:19:5 @ And from the throne came a voice crying, "Praise our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, small and great."

rsv@Revelation:19:6 @ Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great multitude, like the sound of many waters and like the sound of mighty thunderpeals, crying, "Hallelujah! For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns.

rsv@Revelation:19:7 @ Let us rejoice and exult and give him the glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his Bride has made herself ready;

rsv@Revelation:19:8 @ it was granted her to be clothed with fine linen, bright and pure"-- for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints.

rsv@Revelation:19:9 @ And the angel said to me, "Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb." And he said to me, "These are true words of God."

rsv@Revelation:19:10 @ Then I fell down at his feet to worship him, but he said to me, "You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brethren who hold the testimony of Jesus. Worship God." For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

rsv@Revelation:19:11 @ Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! He who sat upon it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war.

rsv@Revelation:19:12 @ His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are many diadems; and he has a name inscribed which no one knows but himself.

rsv@Revelation:19:13 @ He is clad in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word of God.

rsv@Revelation:19:14 @ And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, followed him on white horses.

rsv@Revelation:19:15 @ From his mouth issues a sharp sword with which to smite the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron; he will tread the wine press of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty.

rsv@Revelation:19:16 @ On his robe and on his thigh he has a name inscribed, King of kings and Lord of lords.

rsv@Revelation:19:17 @ Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and with a loud voice he called to all the birds that fly in midheaven, "Come, gather for the great supper of God,

rsv@Revelation:19:18 @ to eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all men, both free and slave, both small and great."

rsv@Revelation:19:19 @ And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth with their armies gathered to make war against him who sits upon the horse and against his army.

rsv@Revelation:19:20 @ And the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who in its presence had worked the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulphur.

rsv@Revelation:19:21 @ And the rest were slain by the sword of him who sits upon the horse, the sword that issues from his mouth; and all the birds were gorged with their flesh.

rsv@Revelation:20:1 @ Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding in his hand the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain.

rsv@Revelation:20:2 @ And he seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,

rsv@Revelation:20:3 @ and threw him into the pit, and shut it and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years were ended. After that he must be loosed for a little while.

rsv@Revelation:20:4 @ Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom judgment was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony to Jesus and for the word of God, and who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life, and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

rsv@Revelation:20:5 @ The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection.

rsv@Revelation:20:6 @ Blessed and holy is he who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they shall reign with him a thousand years.

rsv@Revelation:20:7 @ And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be loosed from his prison

rsv@Revelation:20:8 @ and will come out to deceive the nations which are at the four corners of the earth, that is, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea.

rsv@Revelation:20:9 @ And they marched up over the broad earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city; but fire came down from heaven and consumed them,

rsv@Revelation:20:10 @ and the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulphur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

rsv@Revelation:20:11 @ Then I saw a great white throne and him who sat upon it; from his presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them.

rsv@Revelation:20:12 @ And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Also another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, by what they had done.

rsv@Revelation:20:13 @ And the sea gave up the dead in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead in them, and all were judged by what they had done.

rsv@Revelation:20:14 @ Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire;

rsv@Revelation:20:15 @ and if any one's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

rsv@Revelation:21:1 @ Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.

rsv@Revelation:21:2 @ And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband;

rsv@Revelation:21:3 @ and I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Behold, the dwelling of God is with men. He will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself will be with them;

rsv@Revelation:21:4 @ he will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more, for the former things have passed away."

rsv@Revelation:21:5 @ And he who sat upon the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new." Also he said, "Write this, for these words are trustworthy and true."

rsv@Revelation:21:6 @ And he said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the fountain of the water of life without payment.

rsv@Revelation:21:7 @ He who conquers shall have this heritage, and I will be his God and he shall be my son.

rsv@Revelation:21:8 @ But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted, as for murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their lot shall be in the lake that burns with fire and sulphur, which is the second death."

rsv@Revelation:21:9 @ Then came one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues, and spoke to me, saying, "Come, I will show you the Bride, the wife of the Lamb."

rsv@Revelation:21:10 @ And in the Spirit he carried me away to a great, high mountain, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God,

rsv@Revelation:21:11 @ having the glory of God, its radiance like a most rare jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal.

rsv@Revelation:21:12 @ It had a great, high wall, with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and on the gates the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel were inscribed;

rsv@Revelation:21:13 @ on the east three gates, on the north three gates, on the south three gates, and on the west three gates.

rsv@Revelation:21:14 @ And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

rsv@Revelation:21:15 @ And he who talked to me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city and its gates and walls.

rsv@Revelation:21:16 @ The city lies foursquare, its length the same as its breadth; and he measured the city with his rod, twelve thousand stadia; its length and breadth and height are equal.

rsv@Revelation:21:17 @ He also measured its wall, a hundred and forty-four cubits by a man's measure, that is, an angel's.

rsv@Revelation:21:18 @ The wall was built of jasper, while the city was pure gold, clear as glass.

rsv@Revelation:21:19 @ The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every jewel; the first was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald,

rsv@Revelation:21:20 @ the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst.

rsv@Revelation:21:21 @ And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and the street of the city was pure gold, transparent as glass.

rsv@Revelation:21:22 @ And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb.

rsv@Revelation:21:23 @ And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine upon it, for the glory of God is its light, and its lamp is the Lamb.

rsv@Revelation:21:24 @ By its light shall the nations walk; and the kings of the earth shall bring their glory into it,

rsv@Revelation:21:25 @ and its gates shall never be shut by day--and there shall be no night there;

rsv@Revelation:21:26 @ they shall bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations.

rsv@Revelation:21:27 @ But nothing unclean shall enter it, nor any one who practices abomination or falsehood, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life.

rsv@Revelation:22:1 @ Then he showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb

rsv@Revelation:22:2 @ through the middle of the street of the city; also, on either side of the river, the tree of life with its twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

rsv@Revelation:22:3 @ There shall no more be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and his servants shall worship him;

rsv@Revelation:22:4 @ they shall see his face, and his name shall be on their foreheads.

rsv@Revelation:22:5 @ And night shall be no more; they need no light of lamp or sun, for the Lord God will be their light, and they shall reign for ever and ever.

rsv@Revelation:22:6 @ And he said to me, "These words are trustworthy and true. And the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent his angel to show his servants what must soon take place.

rsv@Revelation:22:7 @ And behold, I am coming soon." Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.

rsv@Revelation:22:8 @ I John am he who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me;

rsv@Revelation:22:9 @ but he said to me, "You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brethren the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God."

rsv@Revelation:22:10 @ And he said to me, "Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near.

rsv@Revelation:22:11 @ Let the evildoer still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy, and the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy."

rsv@Revelation:22:12 @ "Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense, to repay every one for what he has done.

rsv@Revelation:22:13 @ I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end."

rsv@Revelation:22:14 @ Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and that they may enter the city by the gates.

rsv@Revelation:22:15 @ Outside are the dogs and sorcerers and fornicators and murderers and idolaters, and every one who loves and practices falsehood.

rsv@Revelation:22:16 @ "I Jesus have sent my angel to you with this testimony for the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright morning star."

rsv@Revelation:22:17 @ The Spirit and the Bride say, "Come." And let him who hears say, "Come." And let him who is thirsty come, let him who desires take the water of life without price.

rsv@Revelation:22:18 @ I warn every one who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if any one adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book,

rsv@Revelation:22:19 @ and if any one takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.

rsv@Revelation:22:20 @ He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming soon." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!

rsv@Revelation:22:21 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all the saints. Amen. [ (Revelation of John strkjv@22:22) The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all the saints. Amen. ]
