rsv@Jeremiah:11:6 @ And the LORD said to me, "Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: Hear the words of this covenant and do them.

rsv@Jeremiah:35:2 @ "Go to the house of the Re'chabites, and speak with them, and bring them to the house of the LORD, into one of the chambers; then offer them wine to drink."

rsv@Jeremiah:35:3 @ So I took Ja-azani'ah the son of Jeremiah, son of Habazzini'ah, and his brothers, and all his sons, and the whole house of the Re'chabites.

rsv@Jeremiah:35:4 @ I brought them to the house of the LORD into the chamber of the sons of Hanan the son of Igdali'ah, the man of God, which was near the chamber of the princes, above the chamber of Ma-asei'ah the son of Shallum, keeper of the threshold.

rsv@Jeremiah:35:5 @ Then I set before the Re'chabites pitchers full of wine, and cups; and I said to them, "Drink wine."

rsv@Jeremiah:35:6 @ But they answered, "We will drink no wine, for Jon'adab the son of Rechab, our father, commanded us, `You shall not drink wine, neither you nor your sons for ever;

rsv@Jeremiah:35:7 @ you shall not build a house; you shall not sow seed; you shall not plant or have a vineyard; but you shall live in tents all your days, that you may live many days in the land where you sojourn.'

rsv@Jeremiah:35:8 @ We have obeyed the voice of Jon'adab the son of Rechab, our father, in all that he commanded us, to drink no wine all our days, ourselves, our wives, our sons, or our daughters,

rsv@Jeremiah:35:9 @ and not to build houses to dwell in. We have no vineyard or field or seed;

rsv@Jeremiah:35:10 @ but we have lived in tents, and have obeyed and done all that Jon'adab our father commanded us.

rsv@Jeremiah:35:11 @ But when Nebuchadrez'zar king of Babylon came up against the land, we said, `Come, and let us go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Chalde'ans and the army of the Syrians.' So we are living in Jerusalem."

rsv@Jeremiah:35:12 @ Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:

rsv@Jeremiah:35:13 @ "Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Go and say to the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Will you not receive instruction and listen to my words? says the LORD.

rsv@Jeremiah:35:14 @ The command which Jon'adab the son of Rechab gave to his sons, to drink no wine, has been kept; and they drink none to this day, for they have obeyed their father's command. I have spoken to you persistently, but you have not listened to me.

rsv@Jeremiah:35:15 @ I have sent to you all my servants the prophets, sending them persistently, saying, `Turn now every one of you from his evil way, and amend your doings, and do not go after other gods to serve them, and then you shall dwell in the land which I gave to you and your fathers.' But you did not incline your ear or listen to me.

rsv@Jeremiah:35:16 @ The sons of Jon'adab the son of Rechab have kept the command which their father gave them, but this people has not obeyed me.

rsv@Jeremiah:35:17 @ Therefore, thus says the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I am bringing on Judah and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them; because I have spoken to them and they have not listened, I have called to them and they have not answered."

rsv@Jeremiah:35:18 @ But to the house of the Re'chabites Jeremiah said, "Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Because you have obeyed the command of Jon'adab your father, and kept all his precepts, and done all that he commanded you,

rsv@Jeremiah:35:19 @ therefore thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Jon'adab the son of Rechab shall never lack a man to stand before me."

rsv@Jeremiah:36:1 @ In the fourth year of Jehoi'akim the son of Josi'ah, king of Judah, this word came to Jeremiah from the LORD:

rsv@Jeremiah:36:2 @ "Take a scroll and write on it all the words that I have spoken to you against Israel and Judah and all the nations, from the day I spoke to you, from the days of Josi'ah until today.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:3 @ It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I intend to do to them, so that every one may turn from his evil way, and that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin."

rsv@Jeremiah:36:4 @ Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neri'ah, and Baruch wrote upon a scroll at the dictation of Jeremiah all the words of the LORD which he had spoken to him.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:5 @ And Jeremiah ordered Baruch, saying, "I am debarred from going to the house of the LORD;

rsv@Jeremiah:36:6 @ so you are to go, and on a fast day in the hearing of all the people in the LORD's house you shall read the words of the LORD from the scroll which you have written at my dictation. You shall read them also in the hearing of all the men of Judah who come out of their cities.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:7 @ It may be that their supplication will come before the LORD, and that every one will turn from his evil way, for great is the anger and wrath that the LORD has pronounced against this people."

rsv@Jeremiah:36:8 @ And Baruch the son of Neri'ah did all that Jeremiah the prophet ordered him about reading from the scroll the words of the LORD in the LORD's house.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:9 @ In the fifth year of Jehoi'akim the son of Josi'ah, king of Judah, in the ninth month, all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem proclaimed a fast before the LORD.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:10 @ Then, in the hearing of all the people, Baruch read the words of Jeremiah from the scroll, in the house of the LORD, in the chamber of Gemari'ah the son of Shaphan the secretary, which was in the upper court, at the entry of the New Gate of the LORD's house.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:11 @ When Micai'ah the son of Gemari'ah, son of Shaphan, heard all the words of the LORD from the scroll,

rsv@Jeremiah:36:12 @ he went down to the king's house, into the secretary's chamber; and all the princes were sitting there: Eli'shama the secretary, Delai'ah the son of Shemai'ah, Elna'than the son of Achbor, Gemari'ah the son of Shaphan, Zedeki'ah the son of Hanani'ah, and all the princes.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:13 @ And Micai'ah told them all the words that he had heard, when Baruch read the scroll in the hearing of the people.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:14 @ Then all the princes sent Jehu'di the son of Nethani'ah, son of Shelemi'ah, son of Cushi, to say to Baruch, "Take in your hand the scroll that you read in the hearing of the people, and come." So Baruch the son of Neri'ah took the scroll in his hand and came to them.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:15 @ And they said to him, "Sit down and read it." So Baruch read it to them.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:16 @ When they heard all the words, they turned one to another in fear; and they said to Baruch, "We must report all these words to the king."

rsv@Jeremiah:36:17 @ Then they asked Baruch, "Tell us, how did you write all these words? Was it at his dictation?"

rsv@Jeremiah:36:18 @ Baruch answered them, "He dictated all these words to me, while I wrote them with ink on the scroll."

rsv@Jeremiah:36:19 @ Then the princes said to Baruch, "Go and hide, you and Jeremiah, and let no one know where you are."

rsv@Jeremiah:36:20 @ So they went into the court to the king, having put the scroll in the chamber of Eli'shama the secretary; and they reported all the words to the king.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:21 @ Then the king sent Jehu'di to get the scroll, and he took it from the chamber of Eli'shama the secretary; and Jehu'di read it to the king and all the princes who stood beside the king.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:22 @ It was the ninth month, and the king was sitting in the winter house and there was a fire burning in the brazier before him.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:23 @ As Jehu'di read three or four columns, the king would cut them off with a penknife and throw them into the fire in the brazier, until the entire scroll was consumed in the fire that was in the brazier.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:24 @ Yet neither the king, nor any of his servants who heard all these words, was afraid, nor did they rend their garments.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:25 @ Even when Elna'than and Delai'ah and Gemari'ah urged the king not to burn the scroll, he would not listen to them.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:26 @ And the king commanded Jerah'meel the king's son and Serai'ah the son of Az'ri-el and Shelemi'ah the son of Abdeel to seize Baruch the secretary and Jeremiah the prophet, but the LORD hid them.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:27 @ Now, after the king had burned the scroll with the words which Baruch wrote at Jeremiah's dictation, the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:

rsv@Jeremiah:36:28 @ "Take another scroll and write on it all the former words that were in the first scroll, which Jehoi'akim the king of Judah has burned.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:29 @ And concerning Jehoi'akim king of Judah you shall say, `Thus says the LORD, You have burned this scroll, saying, "Why have you written in it that the king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land, and will cut off from it man and beast?"

rsv@Jeremiah:36:30 @ Therefore thus says the LORD concerning Jehoi'akim king of Judah, He shall have none to sit upon the throne of David, and his dead body shall be cast out to the heat by day and the frost by night.

rsv@Jeremiah:36:31 @ And I will punish him and his offspring and his servants for their iniquity; I will bring upon them, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the men of Judah, all the evil that I have pronounced against them, but they would not hear.'"

rsv@Jeremiah:36:32 @ Then Jeremiah took another scroll and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neri'ah, who wrote on it at the dictation of Jeremiah all the words of the scroll which Jehoi'akim king of Judah had burned in the fire; and many similar words were added to them.

rsv@Jeremiah:37:1 @ Zedeki'ah the son of Josi'ah, whom Nebuchadrez'zar king of Babylon made king in the land of Judah, reigned instead of Coni'ah the son of Jehoi'akim.

rsv@Jeremiah:37:2 @ But neither he nor his servants nor the people of the land listened to the words of the LORD which he spoke through Jeremiah the prophet.

rsv@Jeremiah:37:3 @ King Zedeki'ah sent Jehu'cal the son of Shelemi'ah, and Zephani'ah the priest, the son of Ma-asei'ah, to Jeremiah the prophet, saying, "Pray for us to the LORD our God."

rsv@Jeremiah:37:4 @ Now Jeremiah was still going in and out among the people, for he had not yet been put in prison.

rsv@Jeremiah:37:5 @ The army of Pharaoh had come out of Egypt; and when the Chalde'ans who were besieging Jerusalem heard news of them, they withdrew from Jerusalem.

rsv@Jeremiah:37:6 @ Then the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet:

rsv@Jeremiah:37:7 @ "Thus says the LORD, God of Israel: Thus shall you say to the king of Judah who sent you to me to inquire of me, `Behold, Pharaoh's army which came to help you is about to return to Egypt, to its own land.

rsv@Jeremiah:37:8 @ And the Chalde'ans shall come back and fight against this city; they shall take it and burn it with fire.

rsv@Jeremiah:37:9 @ Thus says the LORD, Do not deceive yourselves, saying, "The Chalde'ans will surely stay away from us," for they will not stay away.

rsv@Jeremiah:37:10 @ For even if you should defeat the whole army of Chalde'ans who are fighting against you, and there remained of them only wounded men, every man in his tent, they would rise up and burn this city with fire.'"

rsv@Jeremiah:37:11 @ Now when the Chalde'an army had withdrawn from Jerusalem at the approach of Pharaoh's army,

rsv@Jeremiah:37:12 @ Jeremiah set out from Jerusalem to go to the land of Benjamin to receive his portion there among the people.

rsv@Jeremiah:37:13 @ When he was at the Benjamin Gate, a sentry there named Iri'jah the son of Shelemi'ah, son of Hanani'ah, seized Jeremiah the prophet, saying, "You are deserting to the Chalde'ans."

rsv@Jeremiah:37:14 @ And Jeremiah said, "It is false; I am not deserting to the Chalde'ans." But Iri'jah would not listen to him, and seized Jeremiah and brought him to the princes.

rsv@Jeremiah:37:15 @ And the princes were enraged at Jeremiah, and they beat him and imprisoned him in the house of Jonathan the secretary, for it had been made a prison.

rsv@Jeremiah:37:16 @ When Jeremiah had come to the dungeon cells, and remained there many days,

rsv@Jeremiah:37:17 @ King Zedeki'ah sent for him, and received him. The king questioned him secretly in his house, and said, "Is there any word from the LORD?" Jeremiah said, "There is." Then he said, "You shall be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon."

rsv@Jeremiah:37:18 @ Jeremiah also said to King Zedeki'ah, "What wrong have I done to you or your servants or this people, that you have put me in prison?

rsv@Jeremiah:37:19 @ Where are your prophets who prophesied to you, saying, `The king of Babylon will not come against you and against this land'?

rsv@Jeremiah:37:20 @ Now hear, I pray you, O my lord the king: let my humble plea come before you, and do not send me back to the house of Jonathan the secretary, lest I die there."

rsv@Jeremiah:37:21 @ So King Zedeki'ah gave orders, and they committed Jeremiah to the court of the guard; and a loaf of bread was given him daily from the bakers' street, until all the bread of the city was gone. So Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.

rsv@Jeremiah:38:1 @ Now Shephati'ah the son of Mattan, Gedali'ah the son of Pashhur, Jucal the son of Shelemi'ah, and Pashhur the son of Malchi'ah heard the words that Jeremiah was saying to all the people,

rsv@Jeremiah:38:2 @ "Thus says the LORD, He who stays in this city shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence; but he who goes out to the Chalde'ans shall live; he shall have his life as a prize of war, and live.

rsv@Jeremiah:38:3 @ Thus says the LORD, This city shall surely be given into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon and be taken."

rsv@Jeremiah:38:4 @ Then the princes said to the king, "Let this man be put to death, for he is weakening the hands of the soldiers who are left in this city, and the hands of all the people, by speaking such words to them. For this man is not seeking the welfare of this people, but their harm."

rsv@Jeremiah:38:5 @ King Zedeki'ah said, "Behold, he is in your hands; for the king can do nothing against you."

rsv@Jeremiah:38:6 @ So they took Jeremiah and cast him into the cistern of Malchi'ah, the king's son, which was in the court of the guard, letting Jeremiah down by ropes. And there was no water in the cistern, but only mire, and Jeremiah sank in the mire.

rsv@Jeremiah:38:7 @ When E'bed-mel'ech the Ethiopian, a eunuch, who was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremiah into the cistern--the king was sitting in the Benjamin Gate--

rsv@Jeremiah:38:8 @ E'bed-mel'ech went from the king's house and said to the king,

rsv@Jeremiah:38:9 @ "My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they did to Jeremiah the prophet by casting him into the cistern; and he will die there of hunger, for there is no bread left in the city."

rsv@Jeremiah:38:10 @ Then the king commanded E'bed-mel'ech, the Ethiopian, "Take three men with you from here, and lift Jeremiah the prophet out of the cistern before he dies."

rsv@Jeremiah:38:11 @ So E'bed-mel'ech took the men with him and went to the house of the king, to a wardrobe of the storehouse, and took from there old rags and worn-out clothes, which he let down to Jeremiah in the cistern by ropes.

rsv@Jeremiah:38:12 @ Then E'bed-mel'ech the Ethiopian said to Jeremiah, "Put the rags and clothes between your armpits and the ropes." Jeremiah did so.

rsv@Jeremiah:38:13 @ Then they drew Jeremiah up with ropes and lifted him out of the cistern. And Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard.

rsv@Jeremiah:38:14 @ King Zedeki'ah sent for Jeremiah the prophet and received him at the third entrance of the temple of the LORD. The king said to Jeremiah, "I will ask you a question; hide nothing from me."

rsv@Jeremiah:38:15 @ Jeremiah said to Zedeki'ah, "If I tell you, will you not be sure to put me to death? And if I give you counsel, you will not listen to me."

rsv@Jeremiah:38:16 @ Then King Zedeki'ah swore secretly to Jeremiah, "As the LORD lives, who made our souls, I will not put you to death or deliver you into the hand of these men who seek your life."

rsv@Jeremiah:38:17 @ Then Jeremiah said to Zedeki'ah, "Thus says the LORD, the God of hosts, the God of Israel, If you will surrender to the princes of the king of Babylon, then your life shall be spared, and this city shall not be burned with fire, and you and your house shall live.

rsv@Jeremiah:38:18 @ But if you do not surrender to the princes of the king of Babylon, then this city shall be given into the hand of the Chalde'ans, and they shall burn it with fire, and you shall not escape from their hand."

rsv@Jeremiah:38:19 @ King Zedeki'ah said to Jeremiah, "I am afraid of the Jews who have deserted to the Chalde'ans, lest I be handed over to them and they abuse me."

rsv@Jeremiah:38:20 @ Jeremiah said, "You shall not be given to them. Obey now the voice of the LORD in what I say to you, and it shall be well with you, and your life shall be spared.

rsv@Jeremiah:38:21 @ But if you refuse to surrender, this is the vision which the LORD has shown to me:

rsv@Jeremiah:38:22 @ Behold, all the women left in the house of the king of Judah were being led out to the princes of the king of Babylon and were saying, `Your trusted friends have deceived you and prevailed against you; now that your feet are sunk in the mire, they turn away from you.'

rsv@Jeremiah:38:23 @ All your wives and your sons shall be led out to the Chalde'ans, and you yourself shall not escape from their hand, but shall be seized by the king of Babylon; and this city shall be burned with fire."

rsv@Jeremiah:38:24 @ Then Zedeki'ah said to Jeremiah, "Let no one know of these words and you shall not die.

rsv@Jeremiah:38:25 @ If the princes hear that I have spoken with you and come to you and say to you, `Tell us what you said to the king and what the king said to you; hide nothing from us and we will not put you to death,'

rsv@Jeremiah:38:26 @ then you shall say to them, `I made a humble plea to the king that he would not send me back to the house of Jonathan to die there.'"

rsv@Jeremiah:38:27 @ Then all the princes came to Jeremiah and asked him, and he answered them as the king had instructed him. So they left off speaking with him, for the conversation had not been overheard.

rsv@Jeremiah:38:28 @ And Jeremiah remained in the court of the guard until the day that Jerusalem was taken.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:1 @ In the ninth year of Zedeki'ah king of Judah, in the tenth month, Nebuchadrez'zar king of Babylon and all his army came against Jerusalem and besieged it;

rsv@Jeremiah:39:2 @ in the eleventh year of Zedeki'ah, in the fourth month, on the ninth day of the month, a breach was made in the city.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:3 @ When Jerusalem was taken, all the princes of the king of Babylon came and sat in the middle gate: Ner'gal-share'zer, Sam'gar-ne'bo, Sar'sechim the Rab'saris, Ner'gal-share'zer the Rabmag, with all the rest of the officers of the king of Babylon.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:4 @ When Zedeki'ah king of Judah and all the soldiers saw them, they fled, going out of the city at night by way of the king's garden through the gate between the two walls; and they went toward the Arabah.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:5 @ But the army of the Chalde'ans pursued them, and overtook Zedeki'ah in the plains of Jericho; and when they had taken him, they brought him up to Nebuchadrez'zar king of Babylon, at Riblah, in the land of Hamath; and he passed sentence upon him.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:6 @ The king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedeki'ah at Riblah before his eyes; and the king of Babylon slew all the nobles of Judah.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:7 @ He put out the eyes of Zedeki'ah, and bound him in fetters to take him to Babylon.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:8 @ The Chalde'ans burned the king's house and the house of the people, and broke down the walls of Jerusalem.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:9 @ Then Nebu'zarad'an, the captain of the guard, carried into exile to Babylon the rest of the people who were left in the city, those who had deserted to him, and the people who remained.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:10 @ Nebu'zarad'an, the captain of the guard, left in the land of Judah some of the poor people who owned nothing, and gave them vineyards and fields at the same time.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:11 @ Nebuchadrez'zar king of Babylon gave command concerning Jeremiah through Nebu'zarad'an, the captain of the guard, saying,

rsv@Jeremiah:39:12 @ "Take him, look after him well and do him no harm, but deal with him as he tells you."

rsv@Jeremiah:39:13 @ So Nebu'zarad'an the captain of the guard, Nebushaz'ban the Rab'saris, Ner'gal-share'zer the Rabmag, and all the chief officers of the king of Babylon

rsv@Jeremiah:39:14 @ sent and took Jeremiah from the court of the guard. They entrusted him to Gedali'ah the son of Ahi'kam, son of Shaphan, that he should take him home. So he dwelt among the people.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:15 @ The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah while he was shut up in the court of the guard:

rsv@Jeremiah:39:16 @ "Go, and say to E'bed-mel'ech the Ethiopian, `Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will fulfil my words against this city for evil and not for good, and they shall be accomplished before you on that day.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:17 @ But I will deliver you on that day, says the LORD, and you shall not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid.

rsv@Jeremiah:39:18 @ For I will surely save you, and you shall not fall by the sword; but you shall have your life as a prize of war, because you have put your trust in me, says the LORD.'"

rsv@Jeremiah:40:1 @ The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD after Nebu'zarad'an the captain of the guard had let him go from Ramah, when he took him bound in chains along with all the captives of Jerusalem and Judah who were being exiled to Babylon.

rsv@Jeremiah:40:2 @ The captain of the guard took Jeremiah and said to him, "The LORD your God pronounced this evil against this place;

rsv@Jeremiah:40:3 @ the LORD has brought it about, and has done as he said. Because you sinned against the LORD, and did not obey his voice, this thing has come upon you.

rsv@Jeremiah:40:4 @ Now, behold, I release you today from the chains on your hands. If it seems good to you to come with me to Babylon, come, and I will look after you well; but if it seems wrong to you to come with me to Babylon, do not come.

rsv@Jeremiah:40:5 @ If you remain, then return to Gedali'ah the son of Ahi'kam, son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon appointed governor of the cities of Judah, and dwell with him among the people; or go wherever you think it right to go."

rsv@Jeremiah:40:6 @ Then Jeremiah went to Gedali'ah the son of Ahi'kam, at Mizpah, and dwelt with him among the people who were left in the land.

rsv@Jeremiah:40:7 @ When all the captains of the forces in the open country and their men heard that the king of Babylon had appointed Gedali'ah the son of Ahi'kam governor in the land, and had committed to him men, women, and children, those of the poorest of the land who had not been taken into exile to Babylon,

rsv@Jeremiah:40:8 @ they went to Gedali'ah at Mizpah--Ish'mael the son of Nethani'ah, Joha'nan the son of Kare'ah, Serai'ah the son of Tanhu'meth, the sons of Ephai the Netoph'athite, Jezani'ah the son of the Ma-ac'athite, they and their men.

rsv@Jeremiah:40:11 @ Likewise, when all the Jews who were in Moab and among the Ammonites and in Edom and in other lands heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant in Judah and had appointed Gedali'ah the son of Ahi'kam, son of Shaphan, as governor over them,

rsv@Jeremiah:40:12 @ then all the Jews returned from all the places to which they had been driven and came to the land of Judah, to Gedali'ah at Mizpah; and they gathered wine and summer fruits in great abundance.

rsv@Jeremiah:41:8 @ But there were ten men among them who said to Ish'mael, "Do not kill us, for we have stores of wheat, barley, oil, and honey hidden in the fields." So he refrained and did not kill them with their companions.

rsv@Jeremiah:41:9 @ Now the cistern into which Ish'mael cast all the bodies of the men whom he had slain was the large cistern which King Asa had made for defense against Ba'asha king of Israel; Ish'mael the son of Nethani'ah filled it with the slain.

rsv@Jeremiah:41:10 @ Then Ish'mael took captive all the rest of the people who were in Mizpah, the king's daughters and all the people who were left at Mizpah, whom Nebu'zarad'an, the captain of the guard, had committed to Gedali'ah the son of Ahi'kam.

rsv@Luke:21:24 @ they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led captive among all nations; and Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

rsv@Luke:22:8 @ So Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, "Go and prepare the passover for us, that we may eat it."

rsv@Luke:22:45 @ 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:22:46 @ but Jesus said to him, "Judas, would you betray the Son of man with a kiss?"

rsv@Luke:22:49 @ But Jesus said, "No more of this!" And he touched his ear and healed him.

rsv@Luke:22:50 @ Then Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders, who had come out against him, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

rsv@Luke:22:61 @ Now the men who were holding Jesus mocked him and beat him;

rsv@Luke:23:3 @ And Pilate asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" And he answered him, "You have said so."

rsv@Luke:23:7 @ And when he learned that he belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him over to Herod, who was himself in Jerusalem at that time.

rsv@Luke:23:8 @ When Herod saw Jesus, he was very glad, for he had long desired to see him, because he had heard about him, and he was hoping to see some sign done by him.

rsv@Luke:23:19 @ Pilate addressed them once more, desiring to release Jesus;

rsv@Luke:23:24 @ He released the man who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, whom they asked for; but Jesus he delivered up to their will.

rsv@Luke:23:25 @ And as they led him away, they seized one Simon of Cyre'ne, who was coming in from the country, and laid on him the cross, to carry it behind Jesus.

rsv@Luke:23:27 @ But Jesus turning to them said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

rsv@Luke:23:33 @ And Jesus said, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do." And they cast lots to divide his garments.

rsv@Luke:23:36 @ and saying, "If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!"

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

rsv@Luke:23:41 @ And he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom."

rsv@Luke:23:45 @ Then Jesus, crying with a loud voice, said, "Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit!" And having said this he breathed his last.

rsv@Luke:23:49 @ Now there was a man named Joseph from the Jewish town of Arimathe'a. He was a member of the council, a good and righteous man,

rsv@Luke:23:51 @ This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

rsv@Luke:24:12 @ That very day two of them were going to a village named Emma'us, about seven miles from Jerusalem,

rsv@Luke:24:14 @ While they were talking and discussing together, Jesus himself drew near and went with them.

rsv@Luke:24:17 @ Then one of them, named Cle'opas, answered him, "Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in these days?"

rsv@Luke:24:18 @ And he said to them, "What things?" And they said to him, "Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

rsv@Luke:24:32 @ And they rose that same hour and returned to Jerusalem; and they found the eleven gathered together and those who were with them,

rsv@Luke:24:35 @ As they were saying this, Jesus himself stood among them.

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:24:50 @ And they returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

rsv@John:1:17 @ For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

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:1:29 @ The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

rsv@John:1:36 @ and he looked at Jesus as he walked, and said, "Behold, the Lamb of God!"

rsv@John:1:37 @ The two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus.

rsv@John:1:38 @ Jesus turned, and saw them following, and said to them, "What do you seek?" And they said to him, "Rabbi" (which means Teacher), "where are you staying?"

rsv@John:1:42 @ He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him, and said, "So you are Simon the son of John? You shall be called Cephas" (which means Peter).

rsv@John:1:43 @ The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. And he found Philip and said to him, "Follow me."

rsv@John:1:45 @ Philip found Nathan'a-el, and said to him, "We have found him of whom Moses in the law and also the prophets wrote, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph."

rsv@John:1:47 @ Jesus saw Nathan'a-el coming to him, and said of him, "Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!"

rsv@John:1:48 @ Nathan'a-el said to him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you."

rsv@John:1:50 @ Jesus answered him, "Because I said to you, I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You shall see greater things than these."

rsv@John:2:1 @ On the third day there was a marriage at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there;

rsv@John:2:2 @ Jesus also was invited to the marriage, with his disciples.

rsv@John:2:3 @ When the wine failed, the mother of Jesus said to him, "They have no wine."

rsv@John:2:4 @ And Jesus said to her, "O woman, what have you to do with me? My hour has not yet come."

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:2:7 @ Jesus said to them, "Fill the jars with water." And they filled them up to the brim.

rsv@John:2:11 @ This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

rsv@John:2:13 @ The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

rsv@John:2:18 @ The Jews then said to him, "What sign have you to show us for doing this?"

rsv@John:2:19 @ Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."

rsv@John:2:20 @ The Jews then said, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?"

rsv@John:2:22 @ When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.

rsv@John:2:23 @ Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover feast, many believed in his name when they saw the signs which he did;

rsv@John:2:24 @ but Jesus did not trust himself to them,

rsv@John:3:1 @ Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicode'mus, a ruler of the Jews.

rsv@John:3:2 @ This man came to Jesus by night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that you do, unless God is with him."

rsv@John:3:3 @ Jesus answered him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born anew, he cannot see the kingdom of God."

rsv@John:3:5 @ Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

rsv@John:3:10 @ Jesus answered him, "Are you a teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand this?

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:3:25 @ Now a discussion arose between John's disciples and a Jew over purifying.

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:4:6 @ Jacob's well was there, and so Jesus, wearied as he was with his journey, sat down beside the well. It was about the sixth hour.

rsv@John:4:7 @ There came a woman of Samar'ia to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give me a drink."

rsv@John:4:9 @ The Samaritan woman said to him, "How is it that you, a Jew, ask a drink of me, a woman of Samar'ia?" For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

rsv@John:4:10 @ Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that is saying to you, `Give me a drink,' you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water."

rsv@John:4:13 @ Jesus said to her, "Every one who drinks of this water will thirst again,

rsv@John:4:16 @ Jesus said to her, "Go, call your husband, and come here."

rsv@John:4:17 @ The woman answered him, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her, "You are right in saying, `I have no husband';

rsv@John:4:20 @ Our fathers worshiped on this mountain; and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship."

rsv@John:4:21 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

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

rsv@John:4:26 @ Jesus said to her, "I who speak to you am he."

rsv@John:4:34 @ Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to accomplish his work.

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

rsv@John:4:45 @ So when he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, having seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the feast, for they too had gone to the feast.

rsv@John:4:47 @ When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went and begged him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

rsv@John:4:48 @ Jesus therefore said to him, "Unless you see signs and wonders you will not believe."

rsv@John:4:50 @ Jesus said to him, "Go; your son will live." The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went his way.

rsv@John:4:53 @ The father knew that was the hour when Jesus had said to him, "Your son will live"; and he himself believed, and all his household.

rsv@John:4:54 @ This was now the second sign that Jesus did when he had come from Judea to Galilee.

rsv@John:5:1 @ After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

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:5:5 @ 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:5:7 @ Jesus said to him, "Rise, take up your pallet, and walk."

rsv@John:5:9 @ So the Jews said to the man who was cured, "It is the sabbath, it is not lawful for you to carry your pallet."

rsv@John:5:12 @ Now the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had withdrawn, as there was a crowd in the place.

rsv@John:5:13 @ Afterward, Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, "See, you are well! Sin no more, that nothing worse befall you."

rsv@John:5:14 @ The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had healed him.

rsv@John:5:15 @ And this was why the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he did this on the sabbath.

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

rsv@John:5:17 @ This was why the Jews sought all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath but also called God his Father, making himself equal with God.

rsv@John:5:18 @ Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever he does, that the Son does likewise.

rsv@John: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:6:3 @ Jesus went up on the mountain, and there sat down with his disciples.

rsv@John:6:4 @ Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand.

rsv@John:6:5 @ Lifting up his eyes, then, and seeing that a multitude was coming to him, Jesus said to Philip, "How are we to buy bread, so that these people may eat?"

rsv@John:6:10 @ Jesus said, "Make the people sit down." Now there was much grass in the place; so the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

rsv@John:6:11 @ Jesus then took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated; so also the fish, as much as they wanted.

rsv@John:6:15 @ Perceiving then that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, Jesus withdrew again to the mountain by himself.

rsv@John:6:17 @ got into a boat, and started across the sea to Caper'na-um. It was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.

rsv@John:6:19 @ When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat. They were frightened,

rsv@John:6:22 @ On the next day the people who remained on the other side of the sea saw that there had been only one boat there, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with his disciples, but that his disciples had gone away alone.

rsv@John:6:24 @ So when the people saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they themselves got into the boats and went to Caper'na-um, seeking Jesus.

rsv@John:6:26 @ Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves.

rsv@John:6:29 @ Jesus answered them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent."

rsv@John:6:32 @ Jesus then said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven; my Father gives you the true bread from heaven.

rsv@John:6:35 @ Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life; he who comes to me shall not hunger, and he who believes in me shall never thirst.

rsv@John:6:41 @ The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, "I am the bread which came down from heaven."

rsv@John:6:42 @ They said, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does he now say, `I have come down from heaven'?"

rsv@John:6:43 @ Jesus answered them, "Do not murmur among yourselves.

rsv@John:6:52 @ The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?"

rsv@John:6:53 @ So Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you;

rsv@John:6:61 @ But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at it, said to them, "Do you take offense at this?

rsv@John:6:64 @ But there are some of you that do not believe." For Jesus knew from the first who those were that did not believe, and who it was that would betray him.

rsv@John:6:67 @ Jesus said to the twelve, "Do you also wish to go away?"

rsv@John:6:70 @ Jesus answered them, "Did I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil?"

rsv@John:7:1 @ After this Jesus went about in Galilee; he would not go about in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

rsv@John:7:2 @ Now the Jews' feast of Tabernacles was at hand.

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

rsv@John:7:11 @ The Jews were looking for him at the feast, and saying, "Where is he?"

rsv@John:7:13 @ Yet for fear of the Jews no one spoke openly of him.

rsv@John:7:14 @ About the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

rsv@John:7:15 @ The Jews marveled at it, saying, "How is it that this man has learning, when he has never studied?"

rsv@John:7:16 @ So Jesus answered them, "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me;

rsv@John:7:21 @ Jesus answered them, "I did one deed, and you all marvel at it.

rsv@John:7:25 @ Some of the people of Jerusalem therefore said, "Is not this the man whom they seek to kill?

rsv@John:7:28 @ So Jesus proclaimed, as he taught in the temple, "You know me, and you know where I come from? But I have not come of my own accord; he who sent me is true, and him you do not know.

rsv@John:7:33 @ Jesus then said, "I shall be with you a little longer, and then I go to him who sent me;

rsv@John:7:35 @ The Jews said to one another, "Where does this man intend to go that we shall not find him? Does he intend to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

rsv@John:7:37 @ On the last day of the feast, the great day, Jesus stood up and proclaimed, "If any one thirst, let him come to me and drink.

rsv@John:7:39 @ Now this he said about the Spirit, which those who believed in him were to receive; for as yet the Spirit had not been given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

rsv@John:8:1 @ but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

rsv@John:8:6 @ This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground.

rsv@John:8:9 @ But when they heard it, they went away, one by one, beginning with the eldest, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him.

rsv@John:8:10 @ Jesus looked up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"

rsv@John:8:11 @ She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you; go, and do not sin again."

rsv@John:8:12 @ Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world; he who follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

rsv@John:8:14 @ 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:8:19 @ They said to him therefore, "Where is your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither me nor my Father; if you knew me, you would know my Father also."

rsv@John:8:22 @ Then said the Jews, "Will he kill himself, since he says, `Where I am going, you cannot come'?"

rsv@John:8:25 @ They said to him, "Who are you?" Jesus said to them, "Even what I have told you from the beginning.

rsv@John:8:28 @ So Jesus said, "When you have lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own authority but speak thus as the Father taught me.

rsv@John:8:31 @ Jesus then said to the Jews who had believed in him, "If you continue in my word, you are truly my disciples,

rsv@John:8:34 @ Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, every one who commits sin is a slave to sin.

rsv@John:8:39 @ They answered him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would do what Abraham did,

rsv@John:8:42 @ Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I proceeded and came forth from God; I came not of my own accord, but he sent me.

rsv@John:8:48 @ The Jews answered him, "Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?"

rsv@John:8:49 @ Jesus answered, "I have not a demon; but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.

rsv@John:8:52 @ The Jews said to him, "Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, as did the prophets; and you say, `If any one keeps my word, he will never taste death.'

rsv@John:8:54 @ Jesus answered, "If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing; it is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say that he is your God.

rsv@John:8:57 @ The Jews then said to him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?"

rsv@John:8:58 @ Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am."

rsv@John:8:59 @ So they took up stones to throw at him; but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple.

rsv@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered, "It was not that this man sinned, or his parents, but that the works of God might be made manifest in him.

rsv@John:9:11 @ He answered, "The man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and said to me, `Go to Silo'am and wash'; so I went and washed and received my sight."

rsv@John:9:14 @ Now it was a sabbath day when Jesus made the clay and opened his eyes.

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:9:22 @ His parents said this because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if any one should confess him to be Christ, he was to be put out of the synagogue.

rsv@John:9:35 @ Jesus heard that they had cast him out, and having found him he said, "Do you believe in the Son of man?"

rsv@John:9:37 @ Jesus said to him, "You have seen him, and it is he who speaks to you."

rsv@John:9:39 @ Jesus said, "For judgment I came into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind."

rsv@John:9:41 @ Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no guilt; but now that you say, `We see,' your guilt remains.

rsv@John:10:6 @ This figure Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.

rsv@John:10:7 @ So Jesus again said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

rsv@John:10:19 @ There was again a division among the Jews because of these words.

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:10:24 @ So the Jews gathered round him and said to him, "How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly."

rsv@John:10:25 @ Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness to me;

rsv@John:10:31 @ The Jews took up stones again to stone him.

rsv@John:10:32 @ Jesus answered them, "I have shown you many good works from the Father; for which of these do you stone me?"

rsv@John:10:33 @ The Jews answered him, "It is not for a good work that we stone you but for blasphemy; because you, being a man, make yourself God."

rsv@John:10:34 @ Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, `I said, you are gods'?

rsv@John:11:4 @ But when Jesus heard it he said, "This illness is not unto death; it is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified by means of it."

rsv@John:11:5 @ Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Laz'arus.

rsv@John:11:8 @ The disciples said to him, "Rabbi, the Jews were but now seeking to stone you, and are you going there again?"

rsv@John:11:9 @ Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any one walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

rsv@John:11:13 @ Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he meant taking rest in sleep.

rsv@John:11:14 @ Then Jesus told them plainly, "Laz'arus is dead;

rsv@John:11:17 @ Now when Jesus came, he found that Laz'arus had already been in the tomb four days.

rsv@John:11:18 @ Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles off,

rsv@John:11:19 @ and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother.

rsv@John:11:20 @ When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, while Mary sat in the house.

rsv@John:11:21 @ Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.

rsv@John:11:23 @ Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."

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:11:31 @ When the Jews who were with her in the house, consoling her, saw Mary rise quickly and go out, they followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there.

rsv@John:11:32 @ Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was and saw him, fell at his feet, saying to him, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died."

rsv@John:11:33 @ When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled;

rsv@John:11:35 @ Jesus wept.

rsv@John:11:36 @ So the Jews said, "See how he loved him!"

rsv@John:11:38 @ Then Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb; it was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.

rsv@John:11:39 @ 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:11:40 @ Jesus said to her, "Did I not tell you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?"

rsv@John:11:41 @ So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, "Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.

rsv@John:11:44 @ The dead man came out, his hands and feet bound with bandages, and his face wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go."

rsv@John:11:45 @ Many of the Jews therefore, who had come with Mary and had seen what he did, believed in him;

rsv@John:11:46 @ but some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.

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:11:54 @ Jesus therefore no longer went about openly among the Jews, but went from there to the country near the wilderness, to a town called E'phraim; and there he stayed with the disciples.

rsv@John:11:55 @ Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.

rsv@John:11:56 @ They were looking for Jesus and saying to one another as they stood in the temple, "What do you think? That he will not come to the feast?"

rsv@John:12:1 @ Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Laz'arus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.

rsv@John:12:3 @ Mary took a pound of costly ointment of pure nard and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.

rsv@John:12:7 @ Jesus said, "Let her alone, let her keep it for the day of my burial.

rsv@John:12:9 @ When the great crowd of the Jews learned that he was there, they came, not only on account of Jesus but also to see Laz'arus, whom he had raised from the dead.

rsv@John:12:11 @ because on account of him many of the Jews were going away and believing in Jesus.

rsv@John:12:12 @ The next day a great crowd who had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.

rsv@John:12:14 @ And Jesus found a young ass and sat upon it; as it is written,

rsv@John:12:16 @ His disciples did not understand this at first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that this had been written of him and had been done to him.

rsv@John:12:21 @ So these came to Philip, who was from Beth-sa'ida in Galilee, and said to him, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus."

rsv@John:12:22 @ Philip went and told Andrew; Andrew went with Philip and they told Jesus.

rsv@John:12:23 @ And Jesus answered them, "The hour has come for the Son of man to be glorified.

rsv@John:12:30 @ Jesus answered, "This voice has come for your sake, not for mine.

rsv@John:12:35 @ Jesus said to them, "The light is with you for a little longer. Walk while you have the light, lest the darkness overtake you; he who walks in the darkness does not know where he goes.

rsv@John:12:36 @ While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light." When Jesus had said this, he departed and hid himself from them.

rsv@John:12:44 @ And Jesus cried out and said, "He who believes in me, believes not in me but in him who sent me.

rsv@John:12:48 @ He who rejects me and does not receive my sayings has a judge; the word that I have spoken will be his judge on the last day.

rsv@John:13:1 @ Now before the feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

rsv@John:13:3 @ Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he had come from God and was going to God,

rsv@John:13:7 @ Jesus answered him, "What I am doing you do not know now, but afterward you will understand."

rsv@John:13:8 @ Peter said to him, "You shall never wash my feet." Jesus answered him, "If I do not wash you, you have no part in me."

rsv@John:13:10 @ Jesus said to him, "He who has bathed does not need to wash, except for his feet, but he is clean all over; and you are clean, but not every one of you."

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:13:23 @ One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was lying close to the breast of Jesus;

rsv@John:13:25 @ So lying thus, close to the breast of Jesus, he said to him, "Lord, who is it?"

rsv@John:13:26 @ Jesus answered, "It is he to whom I shall give this morsel when I have dipped it." So when he had dipped the morsel, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.

rsv@John:13:27 @ Then after the morsel, Satan entered into him. Jesus said to him, "What you are going to do, do quickly."

rsv@John:13:29 @ Some thought that, because Judas had the money box, Jesus was telling him, "Buy what we need for the feast"; or, that he should give something to the poor.

rsv@John:13:31 @ When he had gone out, Jesus said, "Now is the Son of man glorified, and in him God is glorified;

rsv@John:13:33 @ Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You will seek me; and as I said to the Jews so now I say to you, `Where I am going you cannot come.'

rsv@John:13:36 @ Simon Peter said to him, "Lord, where are you going?" Jesus answered, "Where I am going you cannot follow me now; but you shall follow afterward."

rsv@John: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:14:6 @ Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me.

rsv@John:14:9 @ Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and yet you do not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father; how can you say, `Show us the Father'?

rsv@John:14:23 @ Jesus answered him, "If a man loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.

rsv@John:16:19 @ Jesus knew that they wanted to ask him; so he said to them, "Is this what you are asking yourselves, what I meant by saying, `A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while, and you will see me'?

rsv@John:16:31 @ Jesus answered them, "Do you now believe?

rsv@John:17:1 @ When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven and said, "Father, the hour has come; glorify thy Son that the Son may glorify thee,

rsv@John:17:3 @ And this is eternal life, that they know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent.

rsv@John:18:1 @ When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples across the Kidron valley, where there was a garden, which he and his disciples entered.

rsv@John:18:2 @ Now Judas, who betrayed him, also knew the place; for Jesus often met there with his disciples.

rsv@John:18:4 @ Then Jesus, knowing all that was to befall him, came forward and said to them, "Whom do you seek?"

rsv@John:18:5 @ They answered him, "Jesus of Nazareth." Jesus said to them, "I am he." Judas, who betrayed him, was standing with them.

rsv@John:18:7 @ Again he asked them, "Whom do you seek?" And they said, "Jesus of Nazareth."

rsv@John:18:8 @ Jesus answered, "I told you that I am he; so, if you seek me, let these men go."

rsv@John:18:11 @ Jesus said to Peter, "Put your sword into its sheath; shall I not drink the cup which the Father has given me?"

rsv@John:18:12 @ So the band of soldiers and their captain and the officers of the Jews seized Jesus and bound him.

rsv@John:18:14 @ It was Ca'iaphas who had given counsel to the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

rsv@John:18:15 @ Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. As this disciple was known to the high priest, he entered the court of the high priest along with Jesus,

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

rsv@John:18:20 @ Jesus answered him, "I have spoken openly to the world; I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together; I have said nothing secretly.

rsv@John:18:22 @ When he had said this, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, "Is that how you answer the high priest?"

rsv@John:18:23 @ Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken wrongly, bear witness to the wrong; but if I have spoken rightly, why do you strike me?"

rsv@John:18:28 @ Then they led Jesus from the house of Ca'iaphas to the praetorium. It was early. They themselves did not enter the praetorium, so that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover.

rsv@John:18:31 @ Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves and judge him by your own law." The Jews said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put any man to death."

rsv@John:18:32 @ This was to fulfil the word which Jesus had spoken to show by what death he was to die.

rsv@John:18:33 @ Pilate entered the praetorium again and called Jesus, and said to him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"

rsv@John:18:34 @ Jesus answered, "Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?"

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:18:36 @ Jesus answered, "My kingship is not of this world; if my kingship were of this world, my servants would fight, that I might not be handed over to the Jews; but my kingship is not from the world."

rsv@John:18:37 @ Pilate said to him, "So you are a king?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this I was born, and for this I have come into the world, to bear witness to the truth. Every one who is of the truth hears my voice."

rsv@John:18:38 @ Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" After he had said this, he went out to the Jews again, and told them, "I find no crime in him.

rsv@John:18:39 @ But you have a custom that I should release one man for you at the Passover; will you have me release for you the King of the Jews?"

rsv@John:19:1 @ Then Pilate took Jesus and scourged him.

rsv@John:19:3 @ they came up to him, saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!" and struck him with their hands.

rsv@John:19:5 @ So Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate said to them, "Behold the man!"

rsv@John:19:7 @ The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he has made himself the Son of God."

rsv@John:19:9 @ he entered the praetorium again and said to Jesus, "Where are you from?" But Jesus gave no answer.

rsv@John:19:11 @ Jesus answered him, "You would have no power over me unless it had been given you from above; therefore he who delivered me to you has the greater sin."

rsv@John:19:12 @ Upon this Pilate sought to release him, but the Jews cried out, "If you release this man, you are not Caesar's friend; every one who makes himself a king sets himself against Caesar."

rsv@John:19:13 @ When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judgment seat at a place called The Pavement, and in Hebrew, Gab'batha.

rsv@John:19:14 @ Now it was the day of Preparation of the Passover; it was about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, "Behold your King!"

rsv@John:19:17 @ So they took Jesus, and he went out, bearing his own cross, to the place called the place of a skull, which is called in Hebrew Gol'gotha.

rsv@John:19:18 @ There they crucified him, and with him two others, one on either side, and Jesus between them.

rsv@John:19:19 @ Pilate also wrote a title and put it on the cross; it read, "Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews."

rsv@John:19:20 @ Many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.

rsv@John:19:21 @ The chief priests of the Jews then said to Pilate, "Do not write, `The King of the Jews,' but, `This man said, I am King of the Jews.'"

rsv@John:19:23 @ When the soldiers had crucified Jesus they took his garments and made four parts, one for each soldier; also his tunic. But the tunic was without seam, woven from top to bottom;

rsv@John:19:25 @ So the soldiers did this. But standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Mag'dalene.

rsv@John:19:26 @ When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing near, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son!"

rsv@John:19:28 @ After this Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfil the scripture), "I thirst."

rsv@John:19:30 @ When Jesus had received the vinegar, he said, "It is finished"; and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

rsv@John:19:31 @ Since it was the day of Preparation, in order to prevent the bodies from remaining on the cross on the sabbath (for that sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

rsv@John:19:33 @ but when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.

rsv@John:19:38 @ After this Joseph of Arimathe'a, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly, for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him leave. So he came and took away his body.

rsv@John:19:40 @ They took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews.

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

rsv@John:20:2 @ So she ran, and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, "They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him."

rsv@John:20:12 @ and she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet.

rsv@John:20:14 @ Saying this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus.

rsv@John:20:15 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom do you seek?" Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away."

rsv@John:20:16 @ Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and said to him in Hebrew, "Rab-bo'ni!" (which means Teacher).

rsv@John:20:17 @ Jesus said to her, "Do not hold me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God."

rsv@John:20:19 @ On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the doors being shut where the disciples were, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you."

rsv@John:20:21 @ Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you."

rsv@John:20:24 @ Now Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came.

rsv@John:20:26 @ Eight days later, his disciples were again in the house, and Thomas was with them. The doors were shut, but Jesus came and stood among them, and said, "Peace be with you."

rsv@John:20:29 @ Jesus said to him, "Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe."

rsv@John:20:30 @ Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book;

rsv@John:20:31 @ but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.

rsv@John:21:1 @ After this Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tibe'ri-as; and he revealed himself in this way.

rsv@John:21:4 @ Just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the beach; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.

rsv@John:21:5 @ Jesus said to them, "Children, have you any fish?" They answered him, "No."

rsv@John:21:7 @ That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his clothes, for he was stripped for work, and sprang into the sea.

rsv@John:21:10 @ Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish that you have just caught."

rsv@John:21:12 @ Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast." Now none of the disciples dared ask him, "Who are you?" They knew it was the Lord.

rsv@John:21:13 @ Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and so with the 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:21:15 @ When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love you." He said to him, "Feed my lambs."

rsv@John:21:17 @ He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, "Do you love me?" And he said to him, "Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you." Jesus said to him, "Feed my sheep.

rsv@John:21:20 @ Peter turned and saw following them the disciple whom Jesus loved, who had lain close to his breast at the supper and had said, "Lord, who is it that is going to betray you?"

rsv@John:21:21 @ When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, "Lord, what about this man?"

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:21:25 @ But there are also many other things which Jesus did; were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.

rsv@Acts:1:1 @ In the first book, O The-oph'ilus, I have dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach,

rsv@Acts:1:4 @ And while staying with them he charged them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, he said, "you heard from me,

rsv@Acts:1:8 @ But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Sama'ria and to the end of the earth."

rsv@Acts:1:11 @ and said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven."

rsv@Acts:1:12 @ Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a sabbath day's journey away;

rsv@Acts:1:14 @ All these with one accord devoted themselves to prayer, together with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.

rsv@Acts:1:16 @ "Brethren, the scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke beforehand by the mouth of David, concerning Judas who was guide to those who arrested Jesus.

rsv@Acts:1:19 @ And it became known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the field was called in their language Akel'dama, that is, Field of Blood.)

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

rsv@Acts:2:10 @ Phryg'ia and Pamphyl'ia, Egypt and the parts of Libya belonging to Cyre'ne, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,

rsv@Acts:2:14 @ But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and addressed them, "Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words.

rsv@Acts:2:22 @ "Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs which God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know--

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:3:6 @ But Peter said, "I have no silver and gold, but I give you what I have; in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk."

rsv@Acts:3:13 @ The God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, glorified his servant Jesus, whom you delivered up and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release him.

rsv@Acts:3:16 @ And his name, by faith in his name, has made this man strong whom you see and know; and the faith which is through Jesus has given the man this perfect health in the presence of you all.

rsv@Acts:4:16 @ saying, "What shall we do with these men? For that a notable sign has been performed through them is manifest to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it.

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:5:16 @ The people also gathered from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing the sick and those afflicted with unclean spirits, and they were all healed.

rsv@Acts:5:42 @ And every day in the temple and at home they did not cease teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ.

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:8:12 @ But when they believed Philip as he preached good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

rsv@Acts:8:14 @ Now when the apostles at Jerusalem heard that Sama'ria had received the word of God, they sent to them Peter and John,

rsv@Acts:8:16 @ for it had not yet fallen on any of them, but they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

rsv@Acts:8:25 @ Now when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, they returned to Jerusalem, preaching the gospel to many villages of the Samaritans.

rsv@Acts:8:26 @ But an angel of the Lord said to Philip, "Rise and go toward the south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza." This is a desert road.

rsv@Acts:8:27 @ And he rose and went. And behold, an Ethiopian, a eunuch, a minister of the Can'dace, queen of the Ethiopians, in charge of all her treasure, had come to Jerusalem to worship

rsv@Acts:8:35 @ Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this scripture he told him the good news of Jesus.

rsv@Acts:9:2 @ and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.

rsv@Acts:13:27 @ For those who live in Jerusalem and their rulers, because they did not recognize him nor understand the utterances of the prophets which are read every sabbath, fulfilled these by condemning him.

rsv@Acts:13:31 @ and for many days he appeared to those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are now his witnesses to the people.

rsv@Acts:13:33 @ this he has fulfilled to us their children by raising Jesus; as also it is written in the second psalm, `Thou art my Son, today I have begotten thee.'

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:13:50 @ 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:14:1 @ Now at Ico'nium they entered together into the Jewish synagogue, and so spoke that a great company believed, both of Jews and of Greeks.

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

rsv@Acts:14:4 @ But the people of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews, and some with the apostles.

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:14:19 @ 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: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:15:4 @ When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and the apostles and the elders, and they declared all that God had done with them.

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:16:7 @ And when they had come opposite My'sia, they attempted to go into Bithyn'ia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them;

rsv@Acts:16:18 @ And this she did for many days. But Paul was annoyed, and turned and said to the spirit, "I charge you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her." And it came out that very hour.

rsv@Acts:16:20 @ and when they had brought them to the magistrates they said, "These men are Jews and they are disturbing our city.

rsv@Acts:16:31 @ And they said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household."

rsv@Acts:17:1 @ Now when they had passed through Amphip'olis and Apollo'nia, they came to Thessaloni'ca, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.

rsv@Acts:17:3 @ explaining and proving that it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead, and saying, "This Jesus, whom I proclaim to you, is the Christ."

rsv@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews were jealous, and taking some wicked fellows of the rabble, they gathered a crowd, set the city in an uproar, and attacked the house of Jason, seeking to bring them out to the people.

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:17:10 @ The brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Beroe'a; and when they arrived they went into the Jewish synagogue.

rsv@Acts:17:11 @ Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessaloni'ca, for they received the word with all eagerness, examining the scriptures daily to see if these things were so.

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:17:17 @ So he argued in the synagogue with the Jews and the devout persons, and in the market place every day with those who chanced to be there.

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:17:23 @ 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: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:18:4 @ And he argued in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded Jews and Greeks.

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:18:12 @ But when Gallio was proconsul of Acha'ia, the Jews made a united attack upon Paul and brought him before the tribunal,

rsv@Acts:18:14 @ But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it were a matter of wrongdoing or vicious crime, I should have reason to bear with you, O Jews;

rsv@Acts:18:19 @ And they came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself went into the synagogue and argued with the Jews.

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:18:28 @ for he powerfully confuted the Jews in public, showing by the scriptures that the Christ was Jesus.

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:19:10 @ 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:19:14 @ Seven sons of a Jewish high priest named Sceva were doing this.

rsv@Acts:19:15 @ But the evil spirit answered them, "Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?"

rsv@Acts:19:17 @ And this became known to all residents of Ephesus, both Jews and Greeks; and fear fell upon them all; and the name of the Lord Jesus was extolled.

rsv@Acts:19:21 @ Now after these events Paul resolved in the Spirit to pass through Macedo'nia and Acha'ia and go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."

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:19:34 @ But when they recognized that he was a Jew, for about two hours they all with one voice cried out, "Great is Ar'temis of the Ephesians!"

rsv@Acts:20:3 @ There he spent three months, and when a plot was made against him by the Jews as he was about to set sail for Syria, he determined to return through Macedo'nia.

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:20:19 @ serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials which befell me through the plots of the Jews;

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:20:35 @ In all things I have shown you that by so toiling one must help the weak, remembering the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, `It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"

rsv@Acts:21:4 @ And having sought out the disciples, we stayed there for seven days. Through the Spirit they told Paul not to go on to Jerusalem.

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:21:12 @ When we heard this, we and the people there begged him not to go up to Jerusalem.

rsv@Acts:21:13 @ Then Paul answered, "What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be imprisoned but even to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus."

rsv@Acts:21:15 @ After these days we made ready and went up to Jerusalem.

rsv@Acts:21:17 @ When we had come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.

rsv@Acts:21:20 @ And when they heard it, they glorified God. And they said to him, "You see, brother, how many thousands there are among the Jews of those who have believed; they are all zealous for the law,

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:24:8 @ The Jews also joined in the charge, affirming that all this was so.

rsv@Acts:24:10 @ As you may ascertain, it is not more than twelve days since I went up to worship at Jerusalem;

rsv@Acts:24:17 @ As I was doing this, they found me purified in the temple, without any crowd or tumult. But some Jews from Asia--

rsv@Acts:24:26 @ But when two years had elapsed, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus; and desiring to do the Jews a favor, Felix left Paul in prison.

rsv@Acts:25:1 @ Now when Festus had come into his province, after three days he went up to Jerusalem from Caesare'a.

rsv@Acts:25:2 @ And the chief priests and the principal men of the Jews informed him against Paul; and they urged him,

rsv@Acts:25:7 @ And when he had come, the Jews who had gone down from Jerusalem stood about him, bringing against him many serious charges which they could not prove.

rsv@Acts:25:8 @ Paul said in his defense, "Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I offended at all."

rsv@Acts:25:9 @ But Festus, wishing to do the Jews a favor, said to Paul, "Do you wish to go up to Jerusalem, and there be tried on these charges before me?"

rsv@Acts:25:10 @ But Paul said, "I am standing before Caesar's tribunal, where I ought to be tried; to the Jews I have done no wrong, as you know very well.

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@1Corinthians:10:22 @ Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?

rsv@1Corinthians:10:32 @ Give no offense to Jews or to Greeks or to the church of God,

rsv@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread,

rsv@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking by the Spirit of God ever says "Jesus be cursed!" and no one can say "Jesus is Lord" except by the Holy Spirit.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:14:32 @ and the spirits of prophets are subject to prophets.

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:15:28 @ When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things under him, that God may be everything to every one.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:31 @ I protest, brethren, by my pride in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die every day!

rsv@1Corinthians:15:57 @ But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:3 @ And when I arrive, I will send those whom you accredit by letter to carry your gift to Jerusalem.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:16 @ I urge you to be subject to such men and to every fellow worker and laborer.

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:1:2 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,

rsv@2Corinthians:1:14 @ as you have understood in part, that you can be proud of us as we can be of you, on the day of the Lord Jesus.

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:4:5 @ For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:10 @ always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For while we live we are always being given up to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal flesh.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:14 @ knowing that he who raised the Lord Jesus will raise us also with Jesus and bring us with you into his presence.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that by his poverty you might become rich.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:2 @ I feel a divine jealousy for you, for I betrothed you to Christ to present you as a pure bride to her one husband.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:4 @ For if some one comes and preaches another Jesus than the one we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or if you accept a different gospel from the one you accepted, you submit to it readily enough.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:11:31 @ The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, he who is blessed for ever, knows that I do not lie.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I fear that perhaps I may come and find you not what I wish, and that you may find me not what you wish; that perhaps there may be quarreling, jealousy, anger, selfishness, slander, gossip, conceit, and disorder.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Examine yourselves, to see whether you are holding to your faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?--unless indeed you fail to meet the test!

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

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:1:17 @ 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:2:1 @ Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along with me.

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:2:13 @ 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:3:1 @ O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified?

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:3:22 @ 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:3:26 @ for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith.

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: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:4:25 @ 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:5:6 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love.

rsv@Galatians:5:20 @ idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, anger, selfishness, dissension, party spirit,

rsv@Galatians:5:24 @ And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

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:6:17 @ Henceforth let no man trouble me; for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus.

rsv@Philippians:1:19 @ Yes, and I shall rejoice. For I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my deliverance,

rsv@Philippians:1:26 @ so that in me you may have ample cause to glory in Christ Jesus, because of my coming to you again.

rsv@Philippians:2:5 @ Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,

rsv@Philippians:2:10 @ that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

rsv@Philippians:2:11 @ and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

rsv@Philippians:2:19 @ I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, so that I may be cheered by news of you.

rsv@Philippians:2:21 @ They all look after their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ.

rsv@Philippians:3:3 @ For we are the true circumcision, who worship God in spirit, and glory in Christ Jesus, and put no confidence in the flesh.

rsv@Philippians:3:8 @ Indeed I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as refuse, in order that I may gain Christ

rsv@Philippians:3:12 @ Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect; but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own.

rsv@Philippians:3:14 @ I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Philippians:3:20 @ But our commonwealth is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:2 @ For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:14 @ For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:12 @ so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our assembling to meet him, we beg you, brethren,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:4 @ who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:8 @ And then the lawless one will be revealed, and the Lord Jesus will slay him with the breath of his mouth and destroy him by his appearing and his coming.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:14 @ To this he called you through our gospel, so that you may obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:16 @ Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,

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@Philemon:1:23 @ Ep'aphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends greetings to you,

rsv@Philemon:1:25 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

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:2:5 @ For it was not to angels that God subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking.

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:2:9 @ But we see Jesus, who for a little while was made lower than the angels, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for every one.

rsv@Hebrews:2:15 @ and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong bondage.

rsv@Hebrews:3:1 @ Therefore, holy brethren, who share in a heavenly call, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession.

rsv@Hebrews:3:3 @ Yet Jesus has been counted worthy of as much more glory than Moses as the builder of a house has more honor than the house.

rsv@Hebrews:4:14 @ Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

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:6:20 @ where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest for ever after the order of Melchiz'edek.

rsv@Hebrews:7:22 @ This makes Jesus the surety of a better covenant.

rsv@Hebrews:8:1 @ Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven,

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:10:19 @ Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to enter the sanctuary by the blood of Jesus,

rsv@Hebrews:11:30 @ By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encircled for seven days.

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:12:2 @ looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

rsv@Hebrews:12:9 @ Besides this, we have had earthly fathers to discipline us and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to the Father of spirits and live?

rsv@Hebrews:12:17 @ For you know that afterward, when he desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no chance to repent, though he sought it with tears.

rsv@Hebrews:12:22 @ But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering,

rsv@Hebrews:12:24 @ and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks more graciously than the blood of Abel.

rsv@Hebrews:12:25 @ See that you do not refuse him who is speaking. For if they did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, much less shall we escape if we reject him who warns from heaven.

rsv@Hebrews:13:8 @ Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and for ever.

rsv@Hebrews:13:12 @ So Jesus also suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people through his own blood.

rsv@Hebrews:13:20 @ Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant,

rsv@Hebrews:13:21 @ equip you with everything good that you may do his will, working in you that which is pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

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@1Peter:2:4 @ Come to him, to that living stone, rejected by men but in God's sight chosen and precious;

rsv@1Peter:2:5 @ and like living stones be yourselves built into a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Peter:2:7 @ To you therefore who believe, he is precious, but for those who do not believe, "The very stone which the builders rejected has become the head of the corner,"

rsv@1Peter:2:13 @ Be subject for the Lord's sake to every human institution, whether it be to the emperor as supreme,

rsv@1Peter:3:4 @ but let it be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable jewel of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious.

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@1Peter:3:22 @ who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities, and powers subject to him.

rsv@1Peter:4:11 @ whoever speaks, as one who utters oracles of God; whoever renders service, as one who renders it by the strength which God supplies; in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@1Peter:5:5 @ Likewise you that are younger be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for "God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

rsv@2Peter:1:1 @ Simeon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained a faith of equal standing with ours in the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:

rsv@2Peter:1:2 @ May grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.

rsv@2Peter:1:8 @ For if these things are yours and abound, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Peter:1:11 @ so there will be richly provided for you an entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Peter:1:14 @ since I know that the putting off of my body will be soon, as our Lord Jesus Christ showed me.

rsv@2Peter:1:16 @ For we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

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:2:20 @ For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overpowered, the last state has become worse for them than the first.

rsv@2Peter:3:18 @ But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

rsv@1John:1:3 @ that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you may have fellowship with us; and our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.

rsv@1John:1:7 @ but if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.

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:2:22 @ 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:3:23 @ And this is his commandment, that we should believe in the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another, just as he has commanded us.

rsv@1John:4:2 @ By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit which confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,

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:4:15 @ Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.

rsv@1John:5:1 @ Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God, and every one who loves the parent loves the child.

rsv@1John:5:5 @ Who is it that overcomes the world but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

rsv@1John:5:6 @ This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ, not with the water only but with the water and the blood.

rsv@1John:5:20 @ And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, to know him who is true; and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.

rsv@2John:1:3 @ Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father and from Jesus Christ the Father's Son, in truth and love.

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@Jude:1:1 @ Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James, To those who are called, beloved in God the Father and kept for Jesus Christ:

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:1:8 @ Yet in like manner these men in their dreamings defile the flesh, reject authority, and revile the glorious ones.

rsv@Jude:1:17 @ But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

rsv@Jude:1:21 @ keep yourselves in the love of God; wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

rsv@Jude:1:25 @ to the only God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and for ever. Amen.

rsv@Revelation:1:1 @ The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants what must soon take place; and he made it known by sending his angel to his servant John,

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:1:5 @ 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:1:9 @ 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:2:9 @ "`I know your tribulation and your poverty (but you are rich) and the slander of those who say that they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.

rsv@Revelation:2:20 @ But I have this against you, that you tolerate the woman Jez'ebel, who calls herself a prophetess and is teaching and beguiling my servants to practice immorality and to eat food sacrificed to idols.

rsv@Revelation:3:9 @ Behold, I will make those of the synagogue of Satan who say that they are Jews and are not, but lie--behold, I will make them come and bow down before your feet, and learn that I have loved you.

rsv@Revelation:3:12 @ He who conquers, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God; never shall he go out of it, and I will write on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem which comes down from my God out of heaven, and my own new name.

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: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:18:16 @ "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: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: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: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:21:10 @ 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.
