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

rsv@Matthew:4:4 @ But he answered, "It is written, `Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'"

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:7:29 @ for he taught them as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.

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

rsv@Matthew:9:8 @ When the crowds saw it, they were afraid, and they glorified God, who had given such authority to men.

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:9:30 @ And their eyes were opened. And Jesus sternly charged them, "See that no one knows it."

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

rsv@Matthew:9:36 @ When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:10:12 @ As you enter the house, salute it.

rsv@Matthew:10:13 @ And if the house is worthy, let your peace come upon it; but if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.

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

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

rsv@Matthew:10:25 @ it is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher, and the servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Be-el'zebul, how much more will they malign those of his household.

rsv@Matthew:10:29 @ Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father's will.

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:11:10 @ This is he of whom it is written, `Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.'

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:11:20 @ Then he began to upbraid the cities where most of his mighty works had been done, because they did not repent.

rsv@Matthew:11:22 @ But I tell you, it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you.

rsv@Matthew:11:23 @ And you, Caper'na-um, will you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades. For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.

rsv@Matthew:11:24 @ But I tell you that it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom than for you."

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

rsv@Matthew:12:3 @ He said to them, "Have you not read what David did, when he was hungry, and those who were with him:

rsv@Matthew:12:4 @ how he entered the house of God and ate the bread of the Presence, which it was not lawful for him to eat nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?

rsv@Matthew:12:10 @ And behold, there was a man with a withered hand. And they asked him, "Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath?" so that they might accuse him.

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

rsv@Matthew:12:12 @ Of how much more value is a man than a sheep! So it is lawful to do good on the sabbath."

rsv@Matthew:12:13 @ Then he said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." And the man stretched it out, and it was restored, whole like the other.

rsv@Matthew:12:15 @ Jesus, aware of this, withdrew from there. And many followed him, and he healed them all,

rsv@Matthew:12:18 @ "Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved with whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit upon him, and he shall proclaim justice to the Gentiles.

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:12:33 @ "Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad; for the tree is known by its fruit.

rsv@Matthew:12:39 @ But he answered them, "An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign; but no sign shall be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:13:20 @ As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is he who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy;

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:13:48 @ when it was full, men drew it ashore and sat down and sorted the good into vessels but threw away the bad.

rsv@Matthew:13:56 @ And are not all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all this?"

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

rsv@Matthew:14:4 @ because John said to him, "It is not lawful for you to have her."

rsv@Matthew:14:7 @ so that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask.

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

rsv@Matthew:14:11 @ and his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.

rsv@Matthew:14:12 @ And his disciples came and took the body and buried it; and they went and told Jesus.

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:14:28 @ And Peter answered him, "Lord, if it is you, bid me come to you on the water."

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

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

rsv@Matthew:15:2 @ "Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat."

rsv@Matthew:15:3 @ He answered them, "And why do you transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition?

rsv@Matthew:15:6 @ So, for the sake of your tradition, you have made void the word of God.

rsv@Matthew:15:7 @ You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, when he said:

rsv@Matthew:15:8 @ `This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me;

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

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

rsv@Matthew:15:19 @ For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, fornication, theft, false witness, slander.

rsv@Matthew:15:20 @ These are what defile a man; but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile a man."

rsv@Matthew:15:21 @ And Jesus went away from there and withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon.

rsv@Matthew:15:22 @ And behold, a Canaanite woman from that region came out and cried, "Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is severely possessed by a demon."

rsv@Matthew:15:26 @ And he answered, "It is not fair to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:16:4 @ An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign shall be given to it except the sign of Jonah." So he left them and departed.

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:27:49 @ But the others said, "Wait, let us see whether Eli'jah will come to save him."

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:27:58 @ He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered it to be given to him.

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

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

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

rsv@Matthew:27:65 @ Pilate said to them, "You have a guard of soldiers; go, make it as secure as you can."

rsv@Matthew:28:2 @ And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled back the stone, and sat upon it.

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

rsv@Matthew:28:8 @ So they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples.

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

rsv@Matthew:28:12 @ And when they had assembled with the elders and taken counsel, they gave a sum of money to the soldiers

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:1:6 @ Now John was clothed with camel's hair, and had a leather girdle around his waist, and ate locusts and wild honey.

rsv@Mark:1:8 @ I have baptized you with water; but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."

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

rsv@Mark:1:11 @ and a voice came from heaven, "Thou art my beloved Son; with thee I am well pleased."

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:1:24 @ and he cried out, "What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy One of God."

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

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

rsv@Mark:1:29 @ And immediately he left the synagogue, and entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

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

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

rsv@Mark:1:33 @ And the whole city was gathered together about the door.

rsv@Mark:1:34 @ And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and he would not permit the demons to speak, because they knew him.

rsv@Mark:1:36 @ And Simon and those who were with him pursued him,

rsv@Mark:1:41 @ Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand and touched him, and said to him, "I will; be clean."

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

rsv@Mark:2:1 @ And when he returned to Caper'na-um after some days, it was reported that he was at home.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:2:21 @ No one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment; if he does, the patch tears away from it, the new from the old, and a worse tear is made.

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

rsv@Mark:2:26 @ how he entered the house of God, when Abi'athar was high priest, and ate the bread of the Presence, which it is not lawful for any but the priests to eat, and also gave it to those who were with him?"

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

rsv@Mark:3:3 @ And he said to the man who had the withered hand, "Come here."

rsv@Mark:3:4 @ And he said to them, "Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good or to do harm, to save life or to kill?" But they were silent.

rsv@Mark:3:5 @ And he looked around at them with anger, grieved at their hardness of heart, and said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out, and his hand was restored.

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

rsv@Mark:3:7 @ Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed; also from Judea

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

rsv@Mark:3:11 @ And whenever the unclean spirits beheld him, they fell down before him and cried out, "You are the Son of God."

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

rsv@Mark:3:15 @ and have authority to cast out demons:

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:3:30 @ for they had said, "He has an unclean spirit."

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

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

rsv@Mark:4:4 @ And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:4:20 @ But those that were sown upon the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold."

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:4:33 @ With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it;

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

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

rsv@Mark:4:40 @ He said to them, "Why are you afraid? Have you no faith?"

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

rsv@Mark:5:2 @ And when he had come out of the boat, there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:5:8 @ For he had said to him, "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!"

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:5:24 @ And he went with him. And a great crowd followed him and thronged about him.

rsv@Mark:5:32 @ And he looked around to see who had done it.

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:5:42 @ And immediately the girl got up and walked (she was twelve years of age), and they were immediately overcome with amazement.

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

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

rsv@Mark:6:7 @ And he called to him the twelve, and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits.

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

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

rsv@Mark:6:15 @ But others said, "It is Eli'jah." And others said, "It is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old."

rsv@Mark:6:16 @ But when Herod heard of it he said, "John, whom I beheaded, has been raised."

rsv@Mark:6:18 @ For John said to Herod, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife."

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:6:28 @ and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl; and the girl gave it to her mother.

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

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

rsv@Mark:6:35 @ And when it grew late, his disciples came to him and said, "This is a lonely place, and the hour is now late;

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

rsv@Mark:6:39 @ Then he commanded them all to sit down by companies upon the green grass.

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

rsv@Mark:6:50 @ for they all saw him, and were terrified. But immediately he spoke to them and said, "Take heart, it is I; have no fear."

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

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

rsv@Mark:7:1 @ Now when the Pharisees gathered together to him, with some of the scribes, who had come from Jerusalem,

rsv@Mark:7:2 @ they saw that some of his disciples ate with hands defiled, that is, unwashed.

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:7:6 @ And he said to them, "Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, `This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me;

rsv@Mark:7:8 @ You leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men."

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:7:23 @ And from there he arose and went away to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And he entered a house, and would not have any one know it; yet he could not be hid.

rsv@Mark:7:24 @ But immediately a woman, whose little daughter was possessed by an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell down at his feet.

rsv@Mark:7:26 @ And he said to her, "Let the children first be fed, for it is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."

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

rsv@Mark:7:35 @ And he charged them to tell no one; but the more he charged them, the more zealously they proclaimed it.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:8:34 @ And he called to him the multitude with his disciples, and said to them, "If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

rsv@Mark:8:35 @ For whoever would save his life will lose it; and whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel's will save it.

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:9:5 @ And Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is well that we are here; let us make three booths, one for you and one for Moses and one for Eli'jah."

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

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

rsv@Mark:9:13 @ But I tell you that Eli'jah has come, and they did to him whatever they pleased, as it is written of him."

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

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

rsv@Mark:9:17 @ And one of the crowd answered him, "Teacher, I brought my son to you, for he has a dumb spirit;

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:9:28 @ And when he had entered the house, his disciples asked him privately, "Why could we not cast it out?"

rsv@Mark:9:30 @ They went on from there and passed through Galilee. And he would not have any one know it;

rsv@Mark:9:34 @ But they were silent; for on the way they had discussed with one another who was the greatest.

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:9:47 @ For every one will be salted with fire.

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

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

rsv@Mark:10:4 @ They said, "Moses allowed a man to write a certificate of divorce, and to put her away."

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

rsv@Mark:10:12 @ and if she divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery."

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:10:19 @ You know the commandments: `Do not kill, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.'"

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

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

rsv@Mark:10:25 @ It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:10:42 @ And Jesus called them to him and said to them, "You know that those who are supposed to rule over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men exercise authority over them.

rsv@Mark:10:43 @ But it shall not be so among you; but whoever would be great among you must be your servant,

rsv@Mark:10:47 @ And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"

rsv@Mark:10:52 @ And Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your faith has made you well." And immediately he received his sight and followed him on the way.

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:11:7 @ And they brought the colt to Jesus, and threw their garments on it; and he sat upon it.

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:11:17 @ And he taught, and said to them, "Is it not written, `My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations'? But you have made it a den of robbers."

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:11:21 @ And Peter remembered and said to him, "Master, look! The fig tree which you cursed has withered."

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:11:30 @ And they argued with one another, "If we say, `From heaven,' he will say, `Why then did you not believe him?'

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:12:5 @ And he sent another, and him they killed; and so with many others, some they beat and some they killed.

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

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

rsv@Mark:12:14 @ And they came and said to him, "Teacher, we know that you are true, and care for no man; for you do not regard the position of men, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?

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

rsv@Mark:12:24 @ Jesus said to them, "Is not this why you are wrong, that you know neither the scriptures nor the power of God?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:13:3 @ And as he sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,

rsv@Mark:13:11 @ And when they bring you to trial and deliver you up, do not be anxious beforehand what you are to say; but say whatever is given you in that hour, for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.

rsv@Mark:13:14 @ "But when you see the desolating sacrilege set up where it ought not to be (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains;

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

rsv@Mark:14:7 @ For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you will, you can do good to them; but you will not always have me.

rsv@Mark:14:11 @ And when they heard it they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought an opportunity to betray him.

rsv@Mark:14:13 @ And he sent two of his disciples, and said to them, "Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you; follow him,

rsv@Mark:14:14 @ and wherever he enters, say to the householder, `The Teacher says, Where is my guest room, where I am to eat the passover with my disciples?'

rsv@Mark:14:17 @ And when it was evening he came with the twelve.

rsv@Mark:14:18 @ And as they were at table eating, Jesus said, "Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me, one who is eating with me."

rsv@Mark:14:19 @ They began to be sorrowful, and to say to him one after another, "Is it I?"

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

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

rsv@Mark:14:23 @ And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, and they all drank of it.

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

rsv@Mark:14:27 @ And Jesus said to them, "You will all fall away; for it is written, `I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.'

rsv@Mark:14:31 @ But he said vehemently, "If I must die with you, I will not deny you." And they all said the same.

rsv@Mark:14:32 @ And they went to a place which was called Gethsem'ane; and he said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I pray."

rsv@Mark:14:33 @ And he took with him Peter and James and John, and began to be greatly distressed and troubled.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:14:63 @ And the high priest tore his garments, and said, "Why do we still need witnesses?

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Mark:15:10 @ For he perceived that it was out of envy that the chief priests had delivered him up.

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

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

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

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

rsv@Luke:5:19 @ but finding no way to bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down with his bed through the tiles into the midst before Jesus.

rsv@Luke:8:26 @ Then they arrived at the country of the Ger'asenes, which is opposite Galilee.

rsv@Luke:8:27 @ And as he stepped out on land, there met him a man from the city who had demons; for a long time he had worn no clothes, and he lived not in a house but among the tombs.

rsv@Luke:8:28 @ When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him, and said with a loud voice, "What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beseech you, do not torment me."

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

rsv@Luke:8:36 @ And those who had seen it told them how he who had been possessed with demons was healed.

rsv@Luke:8:37 @ Then all the people of the surrounding country of the Ger'asenes asked him to depart from them; for they were seized with great fear; so he got into the boat and returned.

rsv@Luke:8:38 @ The man from whom the demons had gone begged that he might be with him; but he sent him away, saying,

rsv@Luke:8:39 @ "Return to your home, and declare how much God has done for you." And he went away, proclaiming throughout the whole city how much Jesus had done for him.

rsv@Luke:8:40 @ Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.

rsv@Luke:8:45 @ And Jesus said, "Who was it that touched me?" When all denied it, Peter said, "Master, the multitudes surround you and press upon you!"

rsv@Luke:8:48 @ And he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace."

rsv@Luke:8:51 @ And when he came to the house, he permitted no one to enter with him, except Peter and John and James, and the father and mother of the child.

rsv@Luke:8:55 @ And her spirit returned, and she got up at once; and he directed that something should be given her to eat.

rsv@Luke:9:1 @ And he called the twelve together and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases,

rsv@Luke:9:7 @ Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done, and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had been raised from the dead,

rsv@Luke:9:10 @ On their return the apostles told him what they had done. And he took them and withdrew apart to a city called Beth-sa'ida.

rsv@Luke:9:11 @ When the crowds learned it, they followed him; and he welcomed them and spoke to them of the kingdom of God, and cured those who had need of healing.

rsv@Luke:9:14 @ For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, "Make them sit down in companies, about fifty each."

rsv@Luke:9:15 @ And they did so, and made them all sit down.

rsv@Luke:9:18 @ Now it happened that as he was praying alone the disciples were with him; and he asked them, "Who do the people say that I am?"

rsv@Luke:9:33 @ And as the men were parting from him, Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is well that we are here; let us make three booths, one for you and one for Moses and one for Eli'jah"--not knowing what he said.

rsv@Luke:9:39 @ and behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out; it convulses him till he foams, and shatters him, and will hardly leave him.

rsv@Luke:9:42 @ While he was coming, the demon tore him and convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

rsv@Luke:10:20 @ Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven."

rsv@Luke:10:21 @ In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, "I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes; yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will.

rsv@Luke:14:9 @ and he who invited you both will come and say to you, `Give place to this man,' and then you will begin with shame to take the lowest place.

rsv@Luke:14:10 @ But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when your host comes he may say to you, `Friend, go up higher'; then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at table with you.

rsv@Luke:14:12 @ He said also to the man who had invited him, "When you give a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your kinsmen or rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return, and you be repaid.

rsv@Luke:14:13 @ But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind,

rsv@Luke:14:15 @ When one of those who sat at table with him heard this, he said to him, "Blessed is he who shall eat bread in the kingdom of God!"

rsv@Luke:14:16 @ But he said to him, "A man once gave a great banquet, and invited many;

rsv@Luke:14:17 @ and at the time for the banquet he sent his servant to say to those who had been invited, `Come; for all is now ready.'

rsv@Luke:14:18 @ But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said to him, `I have bought a field, and I must go out and see it; I pray you, have me excused.'

rsv@Luke:14:21 @ So the servant came and reported this to his master. Then the householder in anger said to his servant, `Go out quickly to the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor and maimed and blind and lame.'

rsv@Luke:14:24 @ For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste my banquet.'"

rsv@Luke:14:25 @ Now great multitudes accompanied him; and he turned and said to them,

rsv@Luke:14:28 @ For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?

rsv@Luke:14:29 @ Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him,

rsv@Luke:14:31 @ Or what king, going to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and take counsel whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?

rsv@Luke:14:34 @ "Salt is good; but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltness be restored?

rsv@Luke:14:35 @ It is fit neither for the land nor for the dunghill; men throw it away. He who has ears to hear, let him hear."

rsv@Luke:15:5 @ And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.

rsv@Luke:15:6 @ And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, `Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.'

rsv@Luke:24:38 @ See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself; handle me, and see; for a spirit has not flesh and bones as you see that I have."

rsv@Luke:24:41 @ and he took it and ate before them.

rsv@Luke:24:42 @ Then he said to them, "These are my words which I spoke to you, while I was still with you, that everything written about me in the law of Moses and the prophets and the psalms must be fulfilled."

rsv@Luke:24:44 @ and said to them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead,

rsv@Luke:24:46 @ You are witnesses of these things.

rsv@Luke:24:47 @ And behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you; but stay in the city, until you are clothed with power from on high."

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

rsv@John:1:1 @ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

rsv@John:1:2 @ He was in the beginning with God;

rsv@John:1:3 @ all things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made.

rsv@John:1:5 @ The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

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

rsv@John:1:8 @ He was not the light, but came to bear witness to the light.

rsv@John:1:15 @ (John bore witness to him, and cried, "This was he of whom I said, `He who comes after me ranks before me, for he was before me.'")

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

rsv@John:1:25 @ They asked him, "Then why are you baptizing, if you are neither the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the prophet?"

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

rsv@John:1:31 @ I myself did not know him; but for this I came baptizing with water, that he might be revealed to Israel."

rsv@John:1:32 @ And John bore witness, "I saw the Spirit descend as a dove from heaven, and it remained on him.

rsv@John:1:33 @ I myself did not know him; but he who sent me to baptize with water said to me, `He on whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, this is he who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.'

rsv@John:1:34 @ And I have seen and have borne witness that this is the Son of God."

rsv@John:1:35 @ The next day again John was standing with two of his disciples;

rsv@John:1:39 @ He said to them, "Come and see." They came and saw where he was staying; and they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

rsv@John:1:44 @ Now Philip was from Beth-sa'ida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

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

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:2:8 @ He said to them, "Now draw some out, and take it to the steward of the feast." So they took it.

rsv@John:2:9 @ When the steward of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the steward of the feast called the bridegroom

rsv@John:2:12 @ After this he went down to Caper'na-um, with his mother and his brothers and his disciples; and there they stayed for a few days.

rsv@John:2:15 @ And making a whip of cords, he drove them all, with the sheep and oxen, out of the temple; and he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables.

rsv@John:2:17 @ His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for thy house will consume me."

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:2:25 @ because he knew all men and needed no one to bear witness of man; for he himself knew what was in man.

rsv@John:3:2 @ 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:3:5 @ 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:3:6 @ That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

rsv@John:3:8 @ The wind blows where it wills, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know whence it comes or whither it goes; so it is with every one who is born of the Spirit."

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

rsv@John:3:21 @ But he who does what is true comes to the light, that it may be clearly seen that his deeds have been wrought in God.

rsv@John:3:22 @ After this Jesus and his disciples went into the land of Judea; there he remained with them and baptized.

rsv@John:3:26 @ And they came to John, and said to him, "Rabbi, he who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you bore witness, here he is, baptizing, and all are going to him."

rsv@John:3:28 @ You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but I have been sent before him.

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

rsv@John:3:34 @ For he whom God has sent utters the words of God, for it is not by measure that he gives the Spirit;

rsv@John:4:5 @ So he came to a city of Samar'ia, called Sy'char, near the field that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

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:4:8 @ For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

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

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

rsv@John:4:11 @ The woman said to him, "Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep; where do you get that living water?

rsv@John:4:12 @ Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, and his sons, and his cattle?"

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

rsv@John:4:23 @ But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for such the Father seeks to worship him.

rsv@John:4:24 @ God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."

rsv@John:4:27 @ Just then his disciples came. They marveled that he was talking with a woman, but none said, "What do you wish?" or, "Why are you talking with her?"

rsv@John:4:28 @ So the woman left her water jar, and went away into the city, and said to the people,

rsv@John:4:30 @ They went out of the city and were coming to him.

rsv@John:4:35 @ Do you not say, `There are yet four months, then comes the harvest'? I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see how the fields are already white for harvest.

rsv@John:4:36 @ He who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, so that sower and reaper may rejoice together.

rsv@John:4:39 @ Many Samaritans from that city believed in him because of the woman's testimony, "He told me all that I ever did."

rsv@John:4:40 @ So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them; and he stayed there two days.

rsv@John:4:42 @ They said to the woman, "It is no longer because of your words that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world."

rsv@John:5:3 @ In these lay a multitude of invalids, blind, lame, paralyzed.

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

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:5:26 @ and has given him authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man.

rsv@John:5:29 @ "I can do nothing on my own authority; as I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me.

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

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

rsv@John:5:32 @ You sent to John, and he has borne witness to the truth.

rsv@John:5:35 @ But the testimony which I have is greater than that of John; for the works which the Father has granted me to accomplish, these very works which I am doing, bear me witness that the Father has sent me.

rsv@John:5:36 @ And the Father who sent me has himself borne witness to me. His voice you have never heard, his form you have never seen;

rsv@John:5:38 @ You search the scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness to me;

rsv@John:5:41 @ But I know that you have not the love of God within you.

rsv@John:5:44 @ Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; it is Moses who accuses you, on whom you set your hope.

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

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

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

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

rsv@John:6:7 @ Philip answered him, "Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each of them to get a little."

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:6:13 @ So they gathered them up and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves, left by those who had eaten.

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:6:20 @ but he said to them, "It is I; do not be afraid."

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:6:31 @ Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, `He gave them bread from heaven to eat.'"

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:6:39 @ and this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day.

rsv@John:6:45 @ It is written in the prophets, `And they shall all be taught by God.' Every one who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me.

rsv@John:6:50 @ This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that a man may eat of it and not die.

rsv@John:6:60 @ Many of his disciples, when they heard it, said, "This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?"

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

rsv@John:6:63 @ It is the spirit that gives life, the flesh is of no avail; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.

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:6:65 @ And he said, "This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father."

rsv@John:6:66 @ After this many of his disciples drew back and no longer went about with him.

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

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

rsv@John:7:17 @ if any man's will is to do his will, he shall know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own authority.

rsv@John:7:18 @ He who speaks on his own authority seeks his own glory; but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and in him there is no falsehood.

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

rsv@John:7:22 @ Moses gave you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and you circumcise a man upon the sabbath.

rsv@John:7:23 @ If on the sabbath a man receives circumcision, so that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because on the sabbath I made a man's whole body well?

rsv@John:7:24 @ Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment."

rsv@John:7:26 @ And here he is, speaking openly, and they say nothing to him! Can it be that the authorities really know that this is the Christ?

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

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

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

rsv@John:7:51 @ "Does our law judge a man without first giving him a hearing and learning what he does?"

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

rsv@John:8:7 @ And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her."

rsv@John:8:8 @ And once more he bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground.

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

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

rsv@John:8:13 @ The Pharisees then said to him, "You are bearing witness to yourself; your testimony is not true."

rsv@John:8:14 @ Jesus answered, "Even if I do bear witness to myself, my testimony is true, for I know whence I have come and whither I am going, but you do not know whence I come or whither I am going.

rsv@John:8:16 @ Yet even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for it is not I alone that judge, but I and he who sent me.

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

rsv@John:8:18 @ I bear witness to myself, and the Father who sent me bears witness to me."

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

rsv@John:8:29 @ And he who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what is pleasing to him."

rsv@John:8:33 @ They answered him, "We are descendants of Abraham, and have never been in bondage to any one. How is it that you say, `You will be made free'?"

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

rsv@John:8:38 @ I speak of what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have heard from your father."

rsv@John:8:43 @ Why do you not understand what I say? It is because you cannot bear to hear my word.

rsv@John:8:44 @ You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

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

rsv@John:8:50 @ Yet I do not seek my own glory; there is One who seeks it and he will be the judge.

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:8:56 @ Your father Abraham rejoiced that he was to see my day; he saw it and was glad."

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:9:4 @ We must work the works of him who sent me, while it is day; night comes, when no one can work.

rsv@John:9:6 @ As he said this, he spat on the ground and made clay of the spittle and anointed the man's eyes with the clay,

rsv@John:9:8 @ The neighbors and those who had seen him before as a beggar, said, "Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?"

rsv@John:9:9 @ Some said, "It is he"; others said, "No, but he is like him." He said, "I am the man."

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

rsv@John:9:27 @ He answered them, "I have told you already, and you would not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you too want to become his disciples?"

rsv@John:9:32 @ Never since the world began has it been heard that any one opened the eyes of a man born blind.

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

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

rsv@John:10:10 @ The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.

rsv@John:10:17 @ For this reason the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.

rsv@John:10:18 @ No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again; this charge I have received from my Father."

rsv@John:10:22 @ 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:10:25 @ 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:10:33 @ 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:11:2 @ It was Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Laz'arus was ill.

rsv@John:11:4 @ 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:11:16 @ Thomas, called the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, "Let us also go, that we may die with him."

rsv@John:11:29 @ And when she heard it, she rose quickly and went to 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:11:33 @ When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled;

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

rsv@John:11:43 @ When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, "Laz'arus, come out."

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

rsv@John:11:54 @ 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:12:2 @ There they made him a supper; Martha served, and Laz'arus was one of those at table with him.

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:12:6 @ This he said, not that he cared for the poor but because he was a thief, and as he had the money box he used to take what was put into it.

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

rsv@John:12:8 @ The poor you always have with you, but you do not always have me."

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

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

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:12:17 @ The crowd that had been with him when he called Laz'arus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead bore witness.

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

rsv@John:12:24 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.

rsv@John:12:25 @ He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

rsv@John:12:28 @ Father, glorify thy name." Then a voice came from heaven, "I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again."

rsv@John:12:29 @ The crowd standing by heard it and said that it had thundered. Others said, "An angel has spoken to him."

rsv@John:12:35 @ 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:12:38 @ it was that the word spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled: "Lord, who has believed our report, and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?"

rsv@John:12:40 @ "He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes and perceive with their heart, and turn for me to heal them."

rsv@John:12:42 @ Nevertheless many even of the authorities believed in him, but for fear of the Pharisees they did not confess it, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:

rsv@John:12:49 @ For I have not spoken on my own authority; the Father who sent me has himself given me commandment what to say and what to speak.

rsv@John:13:2 @ And during supper, when the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him,

rsv@John:13:4 @ rose from supper, laid aside his garments, and girded himself with a towel.

rsv@John:13:5 @ Then he poured water into a basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which he was girded.

rsv@John:13:18 @ I am not speaking of you all; I know whom I have chosen; it is that the scripture may be fulfilled, `He who ate my bread has lifted his heel against me.'

rsv@John:13:19 @ I tell you this now, before it takes place, that when it does take place you may believe that I am he.

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:13:24 @ so Simon Peter beckoned to him and said, "Tell us who it is of whom he speaks."

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:13:30 @ So, after receiving the morsel, he immediately went out; and it was night.

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:14:2 @ In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?

rsv@John:14:23 @ 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:14:25 @ "These things I have spoken to you, while I am still with you.

rsv@John:14:27 @ Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.

rsv@John:14:29 @ And now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place, you may believe.

rsv@John:14:30 @ I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over me;

rsv@John:15:2 @ Every branch of mine that bears no fruit, he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

rsv@John:15:4 @ Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.

rsv@John:15:5 @ I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in me, and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

rsv@John:15:6 @ If a man does not abide in me, he is cast forth as a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire and burned.

rsv@John:15:7 @ If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.

rsv@John:15:8 @ By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be my disciples.

rsv@John:15:16 @ You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

rsv@John:15:18 @ "If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.

rsv@John:15:19 @ If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

rsv@John:15:25 @ It is to fulfil the word that is written in their law, `They hated me without a cause.'

rsv@John:15:26 @ But when the Counselor comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness to me;

rsv@John:15:27 @ and you also are witnesses, because you have been with me from the beginning.

rsv@John:16:4 @ But I have said these things to you, that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you of them. "I did not say these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you.

rsv@John:16:7 @ Nevertheless I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

rsv@John:16:13 @ When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth; for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.

rsv@John:16:14 @ He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you.

rsv@John:16:15 @ All that the Father has is mine; therefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you.

rsv@John:16:16 @ "A little while, and you will see me no more; again a little while, and you will see me."

rsv@John:16:17 @ Some of his disciples said to one another, "What is this that he says to us, `A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while, and you will see me'; and, `because I go to the Father'?"

rsv@John:16:18 @ They said, "What does he mean by `a little while'? We do not know what he means."

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:16:23 @ In that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly, I say to you, if you ask anything of the Father, he will give it to you in my name.

rsv@John:16:24 @ Hitherto you have asked nothing in my name; ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.

rsv@John:16:32 @ The hour is coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, every man to his home, and will leave me alone; yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.

rsv@John:17:5 @ and now, Father, glorify thou me in thy own presence with the glory which I had with thee before the world was made.

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

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

rsv@John:17:26 @ I made known to them thy name, and I will make it known, that the love with which thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them."

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:18:3 @ So Judas, procuring a band of soldiers and some officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, went there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

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:18:10 @ Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's slave and cut off his right ear. The slave's name was Malchus.

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:18:14 @ 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:18:18 @ Now the servants and officers had made a charcoal fire, because it was cold, and they were standing and warming themselves; Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself.

rsv@John:18:22 @ 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:18:25 @ Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said to him, "Are not you also one of his disciples?" He denied it and said, "I am not."

rsv@John:18:26 @ One of the servants of the high priest, a kinsman of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, "Did I not see you in the garden with him?"

rsv@John:18:27 @ Peter again denied it; and at once the cock crowed.

rsv@John:18:28 @ 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:18:34 @ Jesus answered, "Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?"

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:19:2 @ And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and arrayed him in a purple robe;

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

rsv@John:19:11 @ 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:19:14 @ Now it was the day of Preparation of the Passover; it was about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, "Behold your King!"

rsv@John:19:15 @ They cried out, "Away with him, away with him, crucify him!" Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your King?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar."

rsv@John:19:18 @ 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:19:22 @ Pilate answered, "What I have written I have written."

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:19:24 @ so they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to see whose it shall be." This was to fulfil the scripture, "They parted my garments among them, and for my clothing they cast lots."

rsv@John:19:29 @ A bowl full of vinegar stood there; so they put a sponge full of the vinegar on hyssop and held it to his mouth.

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

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

rsv@John:19:32 @ So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who had been crucified with him;

rsv@John:19:34 @ But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once there came out blood and water.

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

rsv@John:19:40 @ 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:20:1 @ Now on the first day of the week Mary Mag'dalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.

rsv@John:20:3 @ Peter then came out with the other disciple, and they went toward the tomb.

rsv@John:20:7 @ and the napkin, which had been on his head, not lying with the linen cloths but rolled up in a place by itself.

rsv@John:20:12 @ 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:20:19 @ 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:20:22 @ And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.

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:20:27 @ Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side; do not be faithless, but believing."

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

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

rsv@John:21:3 @ Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We will go with you." They went out and got into the boat; but that night they caught nothing.

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

rsv@John:21:6 @ He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, for the quantity of fish.

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

rsv@John:21:9 @ When they got out on land, they saw a charcoal fire there, with fish lying on it, and bread.

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

rsv@John:21:22 @ Jesus said to him, "If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? Follow me!"

rsv@John:21:23 @ The saying spread abroad among the brethren that this disciple was not to die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he was not to die, but, "If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you?"

rsv@John:21:24 @ This is the disciple who is bearing witness to these things, and who has written these things; and we know that his testimony is true.

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:1:4 @ 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:1:5 @ for John baptized with water, but before many days you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit."

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

rsv@Acts:1:8 @ 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:1:10 @ And while they were gazing into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white robes,

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:1:18 @ (Now this man bought a field with the reward of his wickedness; and falling headlong he burst open in the middle and all his bowels gushed out.

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

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

rsv@Acts:1:26 @ And they cast lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthi'as; and he was enrolled with the eleven apostles.

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

rsv@Acts:2:4 @ And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

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

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

rsv@Acts:2:9 @ Par'thians and Medes and E'lamites and residents of Mesopota'mia, Judea and Cappado'cia, Pontus and Asia,

rsv@Acts:9:17 @ So Anani'as departed and entered the house. And laying his hands on him he said, "Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus who appeared to you on the road by which you came, has sent me that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit."

rsv@Acts:9:30 @ And when the brethren knew it, they brought him down to Caesare'a, and sent him off to Tarsus.

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

rsv@Acts:9:36 @ Now there was at Joppa a disciple named Tabitha, which means Dorcas. She was full of good works and acts of charity.

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

rsv@Acts:9:39 @ So Peter rose and went with them. And when he had come, they took him to the upper room. All the widows stood beside him weeping, and showing tunics and other garments which Dorcas made while she was with them.

rsv@Acts:10:10 @ And he became hungry and desired something to eat; but while they were preparing it, he fell into a trance

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:11:3 @ saying, "Why did you go to uncircumcised men and eat with them?"

rsv@Acts:11:5 @ "I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, something descending, like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came down to me.

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

rsv@Acts:11:15 @ As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them just as on us at the beginning.

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

rsv@Acts:11:17 @ If then God gave the same gift to them as he gave to us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could withstand God?"

rsv@Acts:11:21 @ And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number that believed turned to the Lord.

rsv@Acts:11:23 @ When he came and saw the grace of God, he was glad; and he exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord with steadfast purpose;

rsv@Acts:11:24 @ for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a large company was added to the Lord.

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

rsv@Acts:11:28 @ And one of them named Ag'abus stood up and foretold by the Spirit that there would be a great famine over all the world; and this took place in the days of Claudius.

rsv@Acts:11:29 @ And the disciples determined, every one according to his ability, to send relief to the brethren who lived in Judea;

rsv@Acts:11:30 @ and they did so, sending it to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.

rsv@Acts:12:2 @ He killed James the brother of John with the sword;

rsv@Acts:12:3 @ and when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was during the days of Unleavened Bread.

rsv@Acts:12:6 @ The very night when Herod was about to bring him out, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries before the door were guarding the prison;

rsv@Acts:12:10 @ When they had passed the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate leading into the city. It opened to them of its own accord, and they went out and passed on through one street; and immediately the angel left him.

rsv@Acts:12:15 @ They said to her, "You are mad." But she insisted that it was so. They said, "It is his angel!"

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

rsv@Acts:12:20 @ Now Herod was angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; and they came to him in a body, and having persuaded Blastus, the king's chamberlain, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king's country for food.

rsv@Acts:12:25 @ And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their mission, bringing with them John whose other name was Mark.

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

rsv@Acts:13:4 @ So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleu'cia; and from there they sailed to Cyprus.

rsv@Acts:13:7 @ He was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence, who summoned Barnabas and Saul and sought to hear the word of God.

rsv@Acts:13:8 @ But El'ymas the magician (for that is the meaning of his name) withstood them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith.

rsv@Acts:13:9 @ But Saul, who is also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked intently at him

rsv@Acts:13:10 @ and said, "You son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, full of all deceit and villainy, will you not stop making crooked the straight paths of the Lord?

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

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

rsv@Acts:13:17 @ The God of this people Israel chose our fathers and made the people great during their stay in the land of Egypt, and with uplifted arm he led them out of it.

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

rsv@Acts:13:23 @ Of this man's posterity God has brought to Israel a Savior, Jesus, as he promised.

rsv@Acts:13:28 @ Though they could charge him with nothing deserving death, yet they asked Pilate to have him killed.

rsv@Acts:13:29 @ And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a tomb.

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

rsv@Acts:13:38 @ Let it be known to you therefore, brethren, that through this man forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you,

rsv@Acts:13:41 @ `Behold, you scoffers, and wonder, and perish; for I do a deed in your days, a deed you will never believe, if one declares it to you.'"

rsv@Acts:13:44 @ The next sabbath almost the whole city gathered together to hear the word of God.

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

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

rsv@Acts:13:50 @ 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:13:52 @ And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.

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

rsv@Acts:14:4 @ 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:14:6 @ they learned of it and fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycao'nia, and to the surrounding country;

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

rsv@Acts:14:9 @ He listened to Paul speaking; and Paul, looking intently at him and seeing that he had faith to be made well,

rsv@Acts:14:13 @ And the priest of Zeus, whose temple was in front of the city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates and wanted to offer sacrifice with the people.

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

rsv@Acts:14:15 @ "Men, why are you doing this? We also are men, of like nature with you, and bring you good news, that you should turn from these vain things to a living God who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them.

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

rsv@Acts:14:18 @ With these words they scarcely restrained the people from offering sacrifice to 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:14:20 @ But when the disciples gathered about him, he rose up and entered the city; and on the next day he went on with Barnabas to Derbe.

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:15:4 @ 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:15:5 @ But some believers who belonged to the party of the Pharisees rose up, and said, "It is necessary to circumcise them, and to charge them to keep the law of Moses."

rsv@Acts:15:8 @ And God who knows the heart bore witness to them, giving them the Holy Spirit just as he did to us;

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:15:15 @ And with this the words of the prophets agree, as it is written,

rsv@Acts:15:16 @ `After this I will return, and I will rebuild the dwelling of David, which has fallen; I will rebuild its ruins, and I will set it up,

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:15:25 @ it has seemed good to us, having come to one accord, to choose men and send them to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,

rsv@Acts:15:28 @ For it has seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things:

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

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

rsv@Acts:15:32 @ And Judas and Silas, who were themselves prophets, exhorted the brethren with many words and strengthened them.

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

rsv@Acts:15:35 @ And after some days Paul said to Barnabas, "Come, let us return and visit the brethren in every city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are."

rsv@Acts:15:36 @ And Barnabas wanted to take with them John called Mark.

rsv@Acts:15:37 @ But Paul thought best not to take with them one who had withdrawn from them in Pamphyl'ia, and had not gone with them to the work.

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

rsv@Acts:16:4 @ 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:16:5 @ So the churches were strengthened in the faith, and they increased in numbers daily.

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

rsv@Acts:16:7 @ 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:16:12 @ and from there to Philip'pi, which is the leading city of the district of Macedo'nia, and a Roman colony. We remained in this city some days;

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:16:18 @ 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:16:21 @ They advocate customs which it is not lawful for us Romans to accept or practice."

rsv@Acts:16:22 @ The crowd joined in attacking them; and the magistrates tore the garments off them and gave orders to beat them with rods.

rsv@Acts:16:28 @ But Paul cried with a loud voice, "Do not harm yourself, for we are all here."

rsv@Acts:16:29 @ And he called for lights and rushed in, and trembling with fear he fell down before Paul and Silas,

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

rsv@Acts:16:34 @ Then he brought them up into his house, and set food before them; and he rejoiced with all his household that he had believed in God.

rsv@Acts:16:35 @ But when it was day, the magistrates sent the police, saying, "Let those men go."

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

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

rsv@Acts:16:39 @ so they came and apologized to them. And they took them out and asked them to leave the city.

rsv@Acts:16:40 @ So they went out of the prison, and visited Lydia; and when they had seen the brethren, they exhorted them and departed.

rsv@Acts:17:2 @ And Paul went in, as was his custom, and for three weeks he argued with them from the scriptures,

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

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

rsv@Acts:17:9 @ And when they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.

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:17:12 @ Many of them therefore believed, with not a few Greek women of high standing as well as men.

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

rsv@Acts:17:17 @ 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:17:24 @ The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in shrines made by man,

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

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

rsv@Acts:17:34 @ But some men joined him and believed, among them Dionys'ius the Are-op'agite and a woman named Dam'aris and others with them.

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:18:3 @ and because he was of the same trade he stayed with them, and they worked, for by trade they were tentmakers.

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

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

rsv@Acts:18:10 @ for I am with you, and no man shall attack you to harm you; for I have many people in this city."

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

rsv@Acts:18:18 @ After this Paul stayed many days longer, and then took leave of the brethren and sailed for Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aq'uila. At Cen'chre-ae he cut his hair, for he had a vow.

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

rsv@Acts:19:2 @ And he said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" And they said, "No, we have never even heard that there is a Holy Spirit."

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:19:6 @ And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

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

rsv@Acts:19:12 @ so that handkerchiefs or aprons were carried away from his body to the sick, and diseases left them and the evil spirits came out of them.

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

rsv@Acts:19:16 @ And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, mastered all of them, and overpowered them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

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

rsv@Acts:19:21 @ 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:19:23 @ About that time there arose no little stir concerning the Way.

rsv@Acts:19:24 @ For a man named Deme'trius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Ar'temis, brought no little business to the craftsmen.

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

rsv@Acts:19:26 @ And you see and hear that not only at Ephesus but almost throughout all Asia this Paul has persuaded and turned away a considerable company of people, saying that gods made with hands are not gods.

rsv@Acts:19:29 @ So the city was filled with the confusion; and they rushed together into the theater, dragging with them Ga'ius and Aristar'chus, Macedo'nians who were Paul's companions in travel.

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:19:35 @ And when the town clerk had quieted the crowd, he said, "Men of Ephesus, what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple keeper of the great Ar'temis, and of the sacred stone that fell from the sky?

rsv@Acts:19:37 @ For you have brought these men here who are neither sacrilegious nor blasphemers of our goddess.

rsv@Acts:19:38 @ If therefore Deme'trius and the craftsmen with him have a complaint against any one, the courts are open, and there are proconsuls; let them bring charges against one another.

rsv@Acts:19:39 @ But if you seek anything further, it shall be settled in the regular assembly.

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:20:12 @ And they took the lad away alive, and were not a little comforted.

rsv@Acts:20:14 @ And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and came to Mityle'ne.

rsv@Acts:20:15 @ And sailing from there we came the following day opposite Chi'os; the next day we touched at Samos; and the day after that we came to Mile'tus.

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:20:20 @ how I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you in public and from house to house,

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

rsv@Acts:20:22 @ And now, behold, I am going to Jerusalem, bound in the Spirit, not knowing what shall befall me there;

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

rsv@Acts:20:28 @ Take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God which he obtained with the blood of his own Son.

rsv@Acts:20:31 @ Therefore be alert, remembering that for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish every one with tears.

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

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

rsv@Acts: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:20:36 @ And when he had spoken thus, he knelt down and prayed with them all.

rsv@Acts:21:3 @ When we had come in sight of Cyprus, leaving it on the left we sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload its cargo.

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

rsv@Acts:21:7 @ When we had finished the voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolema'is; and we greeted the brethren and stayed with them for one day.

rsv@Acts:21:8 @ On the morrow we departed and came to Caesare'a; and we entered the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him.

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:21:16 @ And some of the disciples from Caesare'a went with us, bringing us to the house of Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we should lodge.

rsv@Acts:21:18 @ On the following day Paul went in with us to James; and all the elders were present.

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:21:24 @ take these men and purify yourself along with them and pay their expenses, so that they may shave their heads. Thus all will know that there is nothing in what they have been told about you but that you yourself live in observance of the law.

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

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

rsv@Acts:21:29 @ For they had previously seen Troph'imus the Ephesian with him in the city, and they supposed that Paul had brought him into the temple.

rsv@Acts:21:30 @ Then all the city was aroused, and the people ran together; they seized Paul and dragged him out of the temple, and at once the gates were shut.

rsv@Acts:21:33 @ Then the tribune came up and arrested him, and ordered him to be bound with two chains. He inquired who he was and what he had done.

rsv@Acts:21:36 @ for the mob of the people followed, crying, "Away with him!"

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

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

rsv@Acts:22:3 @ "I am a Jew, born at Tarsus in Cili'cia, but brought up in this city at the feet of Gama'li-el, educated according to the strict manner of the law of our fathers, being zealous for God as you all are this day.

rsv@Acts:22:5 @ as the high priest and the whole council of elders bear me witness. From them I received letters to the brethren, and I journeyed to Damascus to take those also who were there and bring them in bonds to Jerusalem to be punished.

rsv@Acts:22:9 @ Now those who were with me saw the light but did not hear the voice of the one who was speaking to me.

rsv@Acts:22:11 @ And when I could not see because of the brightness of that light, I was led by the hand by those who were with me, and came into Damascus.

rsv@Acts:22:15 @ for you will be a witness for him to all men of what you have seen and heard.

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

rsv@Acts:22:20 @ And when the blood of Stephen thy witness was shed, I also was standing by and approving, and keeping the garments of those who killed him.'

rsv@Acts:22:22 @ Up to this word they listened to him; then they lifted up their voices and said, "Away with such a fellow from the earth! For he ought not to live."

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:23:5 @ And Paul said, "I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest; for it is written, `You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.'"

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

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

rsv@Acts:23:9 @ Then a great clamor arose; and some of the scribes of the Pharisees' party stood up and contended, "We find nothing wrong in this man. What if a spirit or an angel spoke to him?"

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:23:19 @ The tribune took him by the hand, and going aside asked him privately, "What is it that you have to tell me?"

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

rsv@Acts:23:23 @ Then he called two of the centurions and said, "At the third hour of the night get ready two hundred soldiers with seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen to go as far as Caesare'a.

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

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

rsv@Acts:23:30 @ And when it was disclosed to me that there would be a plot against the man, I sent him to you at once, ordering his accusers also to state before you what they have against him."

rsv@Acts:23:32 @ And on the morrow they returned to the barracks, leaving the horsemen to go on with him.

rsv@Acts:24:1 @ And after five days the high priest Anani'as came down with some elders and a spokesman, one Tertul'lus. They laid before the governor their case against Paul;

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

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

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

rsv@Acts:24:11 @ and they did not find me disputing with any one or stirring up a crowd, either in the temple or in the synagogues, or in the city.

rsv@Acts:24:12 @ Neither can they prove to you what they now bring up against me.

rsv@Acts:24:13 @ But this I admit to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I worship the God of our fathers, believing everything laid down by the law or written in the prophets,

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

rsv@Acts:24:23 @ After some days Felix came with his wife Drusil'la, who was a Jewess; and he sent for Paul and heard him speak upon faith in Christ Jesus.

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

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

rsv@Acts:25:5 @ "So," said he, "let the men of authority among you go down with me, and if there is anything wrong about the man, let them accuse him."

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:25:11 @ If then I am a wrongdoer, and have committed anything for which I deserve to die, I do not seek to escape death; but if there is nothing in their charges against me, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar."

rsv@Acts:25:12 @ Then Festus, when he had conferred with his council, answered, "You have appealed to Caesar; to Caesar you shall go."

rsv@Acts:25:16 @ I answered them that it was not the custom of the Romans to give up any one before the accused met the accusers face to face, and had opportunity to make his defense concerning the charge laid against him.

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

rsv@Acts:25:23 @ So on the morrow Agrippa and Berni'ce came with great pomp, and they entered the audience hall with the military tribunes and the prominent men of the city. Then by command of Festus Paul was brought in.

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

rsv@Acts:25:26 @ But I have nothing definite to write to my lord about him. Therefore I have brought him before you, and, especially before you, King Agrippa, that, after we have examined him, I may have something to write.

rsv@Acts:25:27 @ For it seems to me unreasonable, in sending a prisoner, not to indicate the charges against him."

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

rsv@Acts:26:3 @ because you are especially familiar with all customs and controversies of the Jews; therefore I beg you to listen to me patiently.

rsv@Acts:26:8 @ Why is it thought incredible by any of you that God raises the dead?

rsv@Acts:26:10 @ And I did so in Jerusalem; I not only shut up many of the saints in prison, by authority from the chief priests, but when they were put to death I cast my vote against them.

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

rsv@Acts:26:12 @ "Thus I journeyed to Damascus with the authority and commission of the chief priests.

rsv@Acts:26:13 @ At midday, O king, I saw on the way a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining round me and those who journeyed with me.

rsv@Acts:26:14 @ And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, `Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? It hurts you to kick against the goads.'

rsv@Acts:26:16 @ But rise and stand upon your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you to serve and bear witness to the things in which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you,

rsv@Acts:26:18 @ to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'

rsv@Acts:26:24 @ And as he thus made his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, "Paul, you are mad; your great learning is turning you mad."

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

rsv@Acts:26:31 @ and when they had withdrawn, they said to one another, "This man is doing nothing to deserve death or imprisonment."

rsv@Acts:27:1 @ And when it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion of the Augustan Cohort, named Julius.

rsv@Acts:27:6 @ There the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing for Italy, and put us on board.

rsv@Acts:27:7 @ We sailed slowly for a number of days, and arrived with difficulty off Cni'dus, and as the wind did not allow us to go on, we sailed under the lee of Crete off Salmo'ne.

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

rsv@Acts:27:10 @ saying, "Sirs, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives."

rsv@Acts:27:12 @ And because the harbor was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised to put to sea from there, on the chance that somehow they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete, looking northeast and southeast, and winter there.

rsv@Acts:27:15 @ and when the ship was caught and could not face the wind, we gave way to it and were driven.

rsv@Acts:27:16 @ And running under the lee of a small island called Cauda, we managed with difficulty to secure the boat;

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

rsv@Acts:27:19 @ and the third day they cast out with their own hands the tackle of the ship.

rsv@Acts:27:20 @ And when neither sun nor stars appeared for many a day, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope of our being saved was at last abandoned.

rsv@Acts:27:21 @ As they had been long without food, Paul then came forward among them and said, "Men, you should have listened to me, and should not have set sail from Crete and incurred this injury and loss.

rsv@Acts:27:24 @ and he said, `Do not be afraid, Paul; you must stand before Caesar; and lo, God has granted you all those who sail with you.'

rsv@Acts:27:25 @ So take heart, men, for I have faith in God that it will be exactly as I have been told.

rsv@Acts:27:28 @ So they sounded and found twenty fathoms; a little farther on they sounded again and found fifteen fathoms.

rsv@Acts:27:32 @ Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the boat, and let it go.

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

rsv@Acts:27:34 @ Therefore I urge you to take some food; it will give you strength, since not a hair is to perish from the head of any of you."

rsv@Acts:27:35 @ And when he had said this, he took bread, and giving thanks to God in the presence of all he broke it and began to eat.

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

rsv@Acts:27:44 @ and the rest on planks or on pieces of the ship. And so it was that all escaped to land.

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

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

rsv@Acts:28:7 @ Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us and entertained us hospitably for three days.

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

rsv@Acts:28:11 @ After three months we set sail in a ship which had wintered in the island, a ship of Alexandria, with the Twin Brothers as figurehead.

rsv@Acts:28:13 @ And from there we made a circuit and arrived at Rhe'gium; and after one day a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Pute'oli.

rsv@Acts:28:14 @ There we found brethren, and were invited to stay with them for seven days. And so we came to Rome.

rsv@Acts:28:16 @ And when we came into Rome, Paul was allowed to stay by himself, with the soldier that guarded him.

rsv@Acts:28:20 @ For this reason therefore I have asked to see you and speak with you, since it is because of the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain."

rsv@Acts:28:22 @ But we desire to hear from you what your views are; for with regard to this sect we know that everywhere it is spoken against."

rsv@Acts:28:25 @ So, as they disagreed among themselves, they departed, after Paul had made one statement: "The Holy Spirit was right in saying to your fathers through Isaiah the prophet:

rsv@Acts:28:27 @ For this people's heart has grown dull, and their ears are heavy of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest they should perceive with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn for me to heal them.'

rsv@Acts:28:28 @ Let it be known to you then that this salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles; they will listen."

rsv@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you,

rsv@Romans:1:12 @ that is, that we may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine.

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

rsv@Romans:1:17 @ For in it the righteousness of God is revealed through faith for faith; as it is written, "He who through faith is righteous shall live."

rsv@Romans:1:19 @ For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them.

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

rsv@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves,

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

rsv@Romans:1:28 @ And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a base mind and to improper conduct.

rsv@Romans:1:29 @ They were filled with all manner of wickedness, evil, covetousness, malice. Full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity, they are gossips,

rsv@Romans:1:31 @ foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless.

rsv@Romans:2:5 @ But by your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed.

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

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

rsv@Romans:2:12 @ All who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law.

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

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

rsv@Romans:2:22 @ You who say that one must not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?

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

rsv@Romans:2:27 @ Then those who are physically uncircumcised but keep the law will condemn you who have the written code and circumcision but break the law.

rsv@Romans:2:29 @ He is a Jew who is one inwardly, and real circumcision is a matter of the heart, spiritual and not literal. His praise is not from men but from God.

rsv@Romans:3:2 @ Much in every way. To begin with, the Jews are entrusted with the oracles of God.

rsv@Romans:3:3 @ What if some were unfaithful? Does their faithlessness nullify the faithfulness of God?

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

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

rsv@Romans:3:10 @ as it is written: "None is righteous, no, not one;

rsv@Romans:3:14 @ "Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness."

rsv@Romans:3:19 @ Now we know that whatever the law says it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may be held accountable to God.

rsv@Romans:3:21 @ But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from law, although the law and the prophets bear witness to it,

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Romans:3:31 @ Do we then overthrow the law by this faith? By no means! On the contrary, we uphold the law.

rsv@Romans:4:3 @ For what does the scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness."

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

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

rsv@Romans:4:9 @ Is this blessing pronounced only upon the circumcised, or also upon the uncircumcised? We say that faith was reckoned to Abraham as righteousness.

rsv@Romans:4:10 @ How then was it reckoned to him? Was it before or after he had been circumcised? It was not after, but before he was circumcised.

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

rsv@Romans:4:12 @ and likewise the father of the circumcised who are not merely circumcised but also follow the example of the faith which our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.

rsv@Romans:4:13 @ The promise to Abraham and his descendants, that they should inherit the world, did not come through the law but through the righteousness of faith.

rsv@Romans:4:14 @ If it is the adherents of the law who are to be the heirs, faith is null and the promise is void.

rsv@Romans:4:16 @ That is why it depends on faith, in order that the promise may rest on grace and be guaranteed to all his descendants-- not only to the adherents of the law but also to those who share the faith of Abraham, for he is the father of us all,

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

rsv@Romans:4:19 @ He did not weaken in faith when he considered his own body, which was as good as dead because he was about a hundred years old, or when he considered the barrenness of Sarah's womb.

rsv@Romans:4:20 @ No distrust made him waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God,

rsv@Romans:4:22 @ That is why his faith was "reckoned to him as righteousness."

rsv@Romans:4:23 @ But the words, "it was reckoned to him," were written not for his sake alone,

rsv@Romans:4:24 @ but for ours also. It will be reckoned to us who believe in him that raised from the dead Jesus our Lord,

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

rsv@Romans:5:5 @ and hope does not disappoint us, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit which has been given to us.

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

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

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

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

rsv@Romans:6:6 @ We know that our old self was crucified with him so that the sinful body might be destroyed, and we might no longer be enslaved to sin.

rsv@Romans:6:8 @ But if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him.

rsv@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that if you yield yourselves to any one as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?

rsv@Romans:6:17 @ But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed,

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

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

rsv@Romans:7:3 @ Accordingly, she will be called an adulteress if she lives with another man while her husband is alive. But if her husband dies she is free from that law, and if she marries another man she is not an adulteress.

rsv@Romans:7:4 @ Likewise, my brethren, you have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead in order that we may bear fruit for God.

rsv@Romans:7:5 @ While we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death.

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

rsv@Romans:7:7 @ What then shall we say? That the law is sin? By no means! Yet, if it had not been for the law, I should not have known sin. I should not have known what it is to covet if the law had not said, "You shall not covet."

rsv@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, finding opportunity in the commandment, wrought in me all kinds of covetousness. Apart from the law sin lies dead.

rsv@Romans:7:11 @ For sin, finding opportunity in the commandment, deceived me and by it killed me.

rsv@Romans:7:13 @ Did that which is good, then, bring death to me? By no means! It was sin, working death in me through what is good, in order that sin might be shown to be sin, and through the commandment might become sinful beyond measure.

rsv@Romans:7:14 @ We know that the law is spiritual; but I am carnal, sold under sin.

rsv@Romans:7:17 @ So then it is no longer I that do it, but sin which dwells within me.

rsv@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that nothing good dwells within me, that is, in my flesh. I can will what is right, but I cannot do it.

rsv@Romans:7:20 @ Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I that do it, but sin which dwells within me.

rsv@Romans:7:21 @ So I find it to be a law that when I want to do right, evil lies close at hand.

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

rsv@Romans:7:25 @ Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I of myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

rsv@Romans:8:2 @ For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death.

rsv@Romans:8:4 @ in order that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

rsv@Romans:8:5 @ For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.

rsv@Romans:8:6 @ To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.

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

rsv@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh, you are in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Any one who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.

rsv@Romans:8:10 @ But if Christ is in you, although your bodies are dead because of sin, your spirits are alive because of righteousness.

rsv@Romans:8:11 @ If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also through his Spirit which dwells in you.

rsv@Romans:8:13 @ for if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body you will live.

rsv@Romans:8:14 @ For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.

rsv@Romans:8:15 @ For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the spirit of sonship. When we cry, "Abba! Father!"

rsv@Romans:8:16 @ it is the Spirit himself bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God,

rsv@Romans:8:17 @ and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him.

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with sighs too deep for words.

rsv@Romans:8:27 @ And he who searches the hearts of men knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

rsv@Romans:8:28 @ We know that in everything God works for good with those who love him, who are called according to his purpose.

rsv@Romans:8:32 @ He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, will he not also give us all things with him?

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

rsv@Romans:8:34 @ who is to condemn? Is it Christ Jesus, who died, yes, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who indeed intercedes for us?

rsv@Romans:8:36 @ As it is written, "For thy sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered."

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

rsv@Romans:9:1 @ I am speaking the truth in Christ, I am not lying; my conscience bears me witness in the Holy Spirit,

rsv@Romans:9:4 @ They are Israelites, and to them belong the sonship, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship, and the promises;

rsv@Romans:9:6 @ But it is not as though the word of God had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel,

rsv@Romans:9:8 @ This means that it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are reckoned as descendants.

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

rsv@Romans:9:13 @ As it is written, "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated."

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

rsv@Romans:9:20 @ But who are you, a man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say to its molder, "Why have you made me thus?"

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

rsv@Romans:9:26 @ "And in the very place where it was said to them, `You are not my people,' they will be called `sons of the living God.'"

rsv@Romans:9:28 @ for the Lord will execute his sentence upon the earth with rigor and dispatch."

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

rsv@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they did not pursue it through faith, but as if it were based on works. They have stumbled over the stumbling stone,

rsv@Romans:9:33 @ as it is written, "Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone that will make men stumble, a rock that will make them fall; and he who believes in him will not be put to shame."

rsv@Romans:10:2 @ I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but it is not enlightened.

rsv@Romans:10:3 @ For, being ignorant of the righteousness that comes from God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness.

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

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

rsv@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness based on faith says, Do not say in your heart, "Who will ascend into heaven?" (that is, to bring Christ down)

rsv@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? The word is near you, on your lips and in your heart (that is, the word of faith which we preach);

rsv@Romans:10:9 @ because, if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

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

rsv@Romans:10:14 @ But how are men to call upon him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher?

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

rsv@Romans:10:17 @ So faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes by the preaching of Christ.

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

rsv@Romans:11:1 @ I ask, then, has God rejected his people? By no means! I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin.

rsv@Romans:11:2 @ God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the scripture says of Eli'jah, how he pleads with God against Israel?

rsv@Romans:11:6 @ But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace.

rsv@Romans:11:7 @ What then? Israel failed to obtain what it sought. The elect obtained it, but the rest were hardened,

rsv@Romans:11:8 @ as it is written, "God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that should not see and ears that should not hear, down to this very day."

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

rsv@Romans:11:16 @ If the dough offered as first fruits is holy, so is the whole lump; and if the root is holy, so are the branches.

rsv@Romans:11:18 @ do not boast over the branches. If you do boast, remember it is not you that support the root, but the root that supports you.

rsv@Romans:11:20 @ That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast only through faith. So do not become proud, but stand in awe.

rsv@Romans:11:21 @ For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.

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

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

rsv@Romans:11:26 @ and so all Israel will be saved; as it is written, "The Deliverer will come from Zion, he will banish ungodliness from Jacob";

rsv@Romans:11:27 @ "and this will be my covenant with them when I take away their sins."

rsv@Romans:12:1 @ I appeal to you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.

rsv@Romans:12:3 @ For by the grace given to me I bid every one among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith which God has assigned him.

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

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

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

rsv@Romans:12:11 @ Never flag in zeal, be aglow with the Spirit, serve the Lord.

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

rsv@Romans:12:15 @ Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.

rsv@Romans:12:16 @ Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly; never be conceited.

rsv@Romans:12:18 @ If possible, so far as it depends upon you, live peaceably with all.

rsv@Romans:12:19 @ Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God; for it is written, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord."

rsv@Romans:12:21 @ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

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

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

rsv@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of him who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval,

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

rsv@Romans:13:9 @ The commandments, "You shall not commit adultery, You shall not kill, You shall not steal, You shall not covet," and any other commandment, are summed up in this sentence, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

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

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

rsv@Romans:14:1 @ As for the man who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not for disputes over opinions.

rsv@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Master is able to make him stand.

rsv@Romans:14:6 @ He who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. He also who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while he who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God.

rsv@Romans:14:11 @ for it is written, "As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall give praise to God."

rsv@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but it is unclean for any one who thinks it unclean.

rsv@Romans:14:17 @ For the kingdom of God is not food and drink but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit;

rsv@Romans:14:20 @ Do not, for the sake of food, destroy the work of God. Everything is indeed clean, but it is wrong for any one to make others fall by what he eats;

rsv@Romans:14:21 @ it is right not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that makes your brother stumble.

rsv@Romans:14:22 @ The faith that you have, keep between yourself and God; happy is he who has no reason to judge himself for what he approves.

rsv@Romans:14:23 @ But he who has doubts is condemned, if he eats, because he does not act from faith; for whatever does not proceed from faith is sin.

rsv@Romans:15:1 @ We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak, and not to please ourselves;

rsv@Romans:15:3 @ For Christ did not please himself; but, as it is written, "The reproaches of those who reproached thee fell on me."

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

rsv@Romans:15:5 @ May the God of steadfastness and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus,

rsv@Romans:15:6 @ that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

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

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

rsv@Romans:15:13 @ May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been reported to me by Chlo'e's people that there is quarreling among you, my brethren.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:19 @ For it is written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the cleverness of the clever I will thwart."

rsv@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:31 @ therefore, as it is written, "Let him who boasts, boast of the Lord."

rsv@1Corinthians:2:3 @ And I was with you in weakness and in much fear and trembling;

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

rsv@1Corinthians:2:5 @ that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:6 @ Yet among the mature we do impart wisdom, although it is not a wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are doomed to pass away.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:9 @ But, as it is written, "What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man conceived, what God has prepared for those who love him,"

rsv@1Corinthians:2:10 @ God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:11 @ For what person knows a man's thoughts except the spirit of the man which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:12 @ Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might understand the gifts bestowed on us by God.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:2:14 @ The unspiritual man does not receive the gifts of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:15 @ The spiritual man judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:1 @ But I, brethren, could not address you as spiritual men, but as men of the flesh, as babes in Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:2 @ I fed you with milk, not solid food; for you were not ready for it; and even yet you are not ready,

rsv@1Corinthians:3:7 @ So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:3:13 @ each man's work will become manifest; for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:16 @ Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you?

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

rsv@1Corinthians:4:2 @ Moreover it is required of stewards that they be found trustworthy.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:3 @ But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. I do not even judge myself.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:4 @ I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:6 @ I have applied all this to myself and Apol'los for your benefit, brethren, that you may learn by us not to go beyond what is written, that none of you may be puffed up in favor of one against another.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who sees anything different in you? What have you that you did not receive? If then you received it, why do you boast as if it were not a gift?

rsv@1Corinthians:4:8 @ Already you are filled! Already you have become rich! Without us you have become kings! And would that you did reign, so that we might share the rule with you!

rsv@1Corinthians:4:9 @ For I think that God has exhibited us apostles as last of all, like men sentenced to death; because we have become a spectacle to the world, to angels and to men.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:12 @ and we labor, working with our own hands. When reviled, we bless; when persecuted, we endure;

rsv@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write this to make you ashamed, but to admonish you as my beloved children.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:16 @ I urge you, then, be imitators of me.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:4:21 @ What do you wish? Shall I come to you with a rod, or with love in a spirit of gentleness?

rsv@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and of a kind that is not found even among pagans; for a man is living with his father's wife.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:3 @ For though absent in body I am present in spirit, and as if present, I have already pronounced judgment

rsv@1Corinthians:5:4 @ in the name of the Lord Jesus on the man who has done such a thing. When you are assembled, and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus,

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

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with immoral men;

rsv@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But rather I wrote to you not to associate with any one who bears the name of brother if he is guilty of immorality or greed, or is an idolater, reviler, drunkard, or robber--not even to eat with such a one.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:12 @ For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you are to judge?

rsv@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to your shame. Can it be that there is no man among you wise enough to decide between members of the brotherhood,

rsv@1Corinthians:6:7 @ To have lawsuits at all with one another is defeat for you. Why not rather suffer wrong? Why not rather be defrauded?

rsv@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor sexual perverts,

rsv@1Corinthians:6:10 @ nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor robbers will inherit the kingdom of God.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:6:13 @ "Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food"--and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But he who is united to the Lord becomes one spirit with him.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:18 @ Shun immorality. Every other sin which a man commits is outside the body; but the immoral man sins against his own body.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:19 @ Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, which you have from God? You are not your own;

rsv@1Corinthians:6:20 @ you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:1 @ Now concerning the matters about which you wrote. It is well for a man not to touch a woman.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:7:8 @ To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is well for them to remain single as I do.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:9 @ But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to be aflame with passion.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:12 @ To the rest I say, not the Lord, that if any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he should not divorce her.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:13 @ If any woman has a husband who is an unbeliever, and he consents to live with her, she should not divorce him.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband is consecrated through his wife, and the unbelieving wife is consecrated through her husband. Otherwise, your children would be unclean, but as it is they are holy.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbelieving partner desires to separate, let it be so; in such a case the brother or sister is not bound. For God has called us to peace.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:19 @ For neither circumcision counts for anything nor uncircumcision, but keeping the commandments of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you a slave when called? Never mind. But if you can gain your freedom, avail yourself of the opportunity.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:23 @ You were bought with a price; do not become slaves of men.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:24 @ So, brethren, in whatever state each was called, there let him remain with God.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:26 @ I think that in view of the present distress it is well for a person to remain as he is.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:31 @ and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For the form of this world is passing away.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:34 @ and his interests are divided. And the unmarried woman or girl is anxious about the affairs of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit; but the married woman is anxious about worldly affairs, how to please her husband.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:7:36 @ If any one thinks that he is not behaving properly toward his betrothed, if his passions are strong, and it has to be, let him do as he wishes: let them marry--it is no sin.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:37 @ But whoever is firmly established in his heart, being under no necessity but having his desire under control, and has determined this in his heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But in my judgment she is happier if she remains as she is. And I think that I have the Spirit of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:7 @ However, not all possess this knowledge. But some, through being hitherto accustomed to idols, eat food as really offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:12 @ Thus, sinning against your brethren and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:6 @ Or is it only Barnabas and I who have no right to refrain from working for a living?

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

rsv@1Corinthians:9:8 @ Do I say this on human authority? Does not the law say the same?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:9 @ For it is written in the law of Moses, "You shall not muzzle an ox when it is treading out the grain." Is it for oxen that God is concerned?

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

rsv@1Corinthians:9:11 @ If we have sown spiritual good among you, is it too much if we reap your material benefits?

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:9:17 @ For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward; but if not of my own will, I am entrusted with a commission.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:21 @ To those outside the law I became as one outside the law--not being without law toward God but under the law of Christ--that I might win those outside the law.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:23 @ I do it all for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:24 @ Do you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:25 @ Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:27 @ but I pommel my body and subdue it, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:5 @ Nevertheless with most of them God was not pleased; for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:7 @ Do not be idolaters as some of them were; as it is written, "The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to dance."

rsv@1Corinthians:10:8 @ We must not indulge in immorality as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in a single day.

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

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:10:20 @ No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be partners with demons.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:10:26 @ For "the earth is the Lord's, and everything in it."

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

rsv@1Corinthians:10:29 @ I mean his conscience, not yours--do not eat it.) For why should my liberty be determined by another man's scruples?

rsv@1Corinthians:10:30 @ If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for which I give thanks?

rsv@1Corinthians:11:1 @ Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:11:4 @ Any man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head,

rsv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ but any woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled dishonors her head--it is the same as if her head were shaven.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman will not veil herself, then she should cut off her hair; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her wear a veil.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:9 @ Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.)

rsv@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Judge for yourselves; is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

rsv@1Corinthians:11:14 @ Does not nature itself teach you that for a man to wear long hair is degrading to him,

rsv@1Corinthians:11:15 @ but if a woman has long hair, it is her pride? For her hair is given to her for a covering.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For, in the first place, when you assemble as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it,

rsv@1Corinthians:11:20 @ When you meet together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:11:24 @ and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me."

rsv@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me."

rsv@1Corinthians:11:29 @ For any one who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment upon himself.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged by the Lord, we are chastened so that we may not be condemned along with the world.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:33 @ So then, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another--

rsv@1Corinthians:12:1 @ Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be uninformed.

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

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:12:8 @ To one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit,

rsv@1Corinthians:12:9 @ to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit,

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body," that would not make it any less a part of the body.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body," that would not make it any less a part of the body.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But as it is, God arranged the organs in the body, each one of them, as he chose.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:20 @ As it is, there are many parts, yet one body.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:23 @ and those parts of the body which we think less honorable we invest with the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty,

rsv@1Corinthians:12:27 @ Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:30 @ Do all possess gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

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

rsv@1Corinthians:13:5 @ it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;

rsv@1Corinthians:13:6 @ it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never ends; as for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:13 @ So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Make love your aim, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So with yourselves; if you in a tongue utter speech that is not intelligible, how will any one know what is said? For you will be speaking into the air.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:10 @ There are doubtless many different languages in the world, and none is without meaning;

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

rsv@1Corinthians:14:14 @ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays but my mind is unfruitful.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:15 @ What am I to do? I will pray with the spirit and I will pray with the mind also; I will sing with the spirit and I will sing with the mind also.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:14:19 @ nevertheless, in church I would rather speak five words with my mind, in order to instruct others, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the law it is written, "By men of strange tongues and by the lips of foreigners will I speak to this people, and even then they will not listen to me, says the Lord."

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:14:34 @ the women should keep silence in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be subordinate, as even the law says.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:35 @ If there is anything they desire to know, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:36 @ What! Did the word of God originate with you, or are you the only ones it has reached?

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

rsv@1Corinthians:15:2 @ by which you are saved, if you hold it fast--unless you believed in vain.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures,

rsv@1Corinthians:15:4 @ that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures,

rsv@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles, unfit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God which is with me.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:11 @ Whether then it was I or they, so we preach and so you believed.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:14 @ if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain.

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

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:24 @ Then comes the end, when he delivers the kingdom to God the Father after destroying every rule and every authority and power.

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:15:32 @ What do I gain if, humanly speaking, I fought with beasts at Ephesus? If the dead are not raised, "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die."

rsv@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But some one will ask, "How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?"

rsv@1Corinthians:15:36 @ You foolish man! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:38 @ But God gives it a body as he has chosen, and to each kind of seed its own body.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:15:43 @ It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:44 @ It is sown a physical body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual body.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:45 @ Thus it is written, "The first man Adam became a living being"; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:46 @ But it is not the spiritual which is first but the physical, and then the spiritual.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:50 @ I tell you this, brethren: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:53 @ For this perishable nature must put on the imperishable, and this mortal nature must put on immortality.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:54 @ When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: "Death is swallowed up in victory."

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:16:4 @ If it seems advisable that I should go also, they will accompany me.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:5 @ I will visit you after passing through Macedo'nia, for I intend to pass through Macedo'nia,

rsv@1Corinthians:16:6 @ and perhaps I will stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may speed me on my journey, wherever I go.

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:16:12 @ As for our brother Apol'los, I strongly urged him to visit you with the other brethren, but it was not at all his will to come now. He will come when he has opportunity.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:13 @ Be watchful, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong.

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

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

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:16:23 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:24 @ My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For we write you nothing but what you can read and understand; I hope you will understand fully,

rsv@2Corinthians:1:16 @ I wanted to visit you on my way to Macedo'nia, and to come back to you from Macedo'nia and have you send me on my way to Judea.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:18 @ As surely as God is faithful, our word to you has not been Yes and No.

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:1:21 @ But it is God who establishes us with you in Christ, and has commissioned us;

rsv@2Corinthians:1:22 @ he has put his seal upon us and given us his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:23 @ But I call God to witness against me--it was to spare you that I refrained from coming to Corinth.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we lord it over your faith; we work with you for your joy, for you stand firm in your faith.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:1 @ For I made up my mind not to make you another painful visit.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if any one has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but in some measure--not to put it too severely-- to you all.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:6 @ For such a one this punishment by the majority is enough;

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

rsv@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God's word; but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:3:3 @ and you show that you are a letter from Christ delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:6 @ who has made us competent to be ministers of a new covenant, not in a written code but in the Spirit; for the written code kills, but the Spirit gives life.

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

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:3:10 @ Indeed, in this case, what once had splendor has come to have no splendor at all, because of the splendor that surpasses it.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:11 @ For if what faded away came with splendor, what is permanent must have much more splendor.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:13 @ not like Moses, who put a veil over his face so that the Israelites might not see the end of the fading splendor.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:14 @ But their minds were hardened; for to this day, when they read the old covenant, that same veil remains unlifted, because only through Christ is it taken away.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:17 @ Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:18 @ And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being changed into his likeness from one degree of glory to another; for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:4:3 @ And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled only to those who are perishing.

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:4:6 @ For it is the God who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:13 @ Since we have the same spirit of faith as he had who wrote, "I believed, and so I spoke," we too believe, and so we speak,

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:4:15 @ For it is all for your sake, so that as grace extends to more and more people it may increase thanksgiving, to the glory of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:1 @ For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:5:5 @ He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:7 @ for we walk by faith, not by sight.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:8 @ We are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:9 @ So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men; but what we are is known to God, and I hope it is known also to your conscience.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:5:13 @ For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:1 @ Working together with him, then, we entreat you not to accept the grace of God in vain.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:3 @ We put no obstacle in any one's way, so that no fault may be found with our ministry,

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

rsv@2Corinthians:6:6 @ by purity, knowledge, forbearance, kindness, the Holy Spirit, genuine love,

rsv@2Corinthians:6:7 @ truthful speech, and the power of God; with the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and for the left;

rsv@2Corinthians:6:14 @ Do not be mismated with unbelievers. For what partnership have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?

rsv@2Corinthians:6:15 @ What accord has Christ with Be'lial? Or what has a believer in common with an unbeliever?

rsv@2Corinthians:6:16 @ What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said, "I will live in them and move among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:1 @ Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, and make holiness perfect in the fear of God.

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

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

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:7:8 @ For even if I made you sorry with my letter, I do not regret it (though I did regret it), for I see that that letter grieved you, though only for a while.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:7:12 @ So although I wrote to you, it was not on account of the one who did the wrong, nor on account of the one who suffered the wrong, but in order that your zeal for us might be revealed to you in the sight of God.

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his heart goes out all the more to you, as he remembers the obedience of you all, and the fear and trembling with which you received him.

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:8:7 @ Now as you excel in everything--in faith, in utterance, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in your love for us--see that you excel in this gracious work also.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And in this matter I give my advice: it is best for you now to complete what a year ago you began not only to do but to desire,

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

rsv@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what a man has, not according to what he has not.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:8:15 @ As it is written, "He who gathered much had nothing over, and he who gathered little had no lack."

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

rsv@2Corinthians:8:18 @ With him we are sending the brother who is famous among all the churches for his preaching of the gospel;

rsv@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only that, but he has been appointed by the churches to travel with us in this gracious work which we are carrying on, for the glory of the Lord and to show our good will.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And with them we are sending our brother whom we have often tested and found earnest in many matters, but who is now more earnest than ever because of his great confidence in you.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:9:1 @ Now it is superfluous for me to write to you about the offering for the saints,

rsv@2Corinthians:9:4 @ lest if some Macedo'nians come with me and find that you are not ready, we be humiliated--to say nothing of you--for being so confident.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:9:8 @ And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that you may always have enough of everything and may provide in abundance for every good work.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:9 @ As it is written, "He scatters abroad, he gives to the poor; his righteousness endures for ever."

rsv@2Corinthians:9:11 @ You will be enriched in every way for great generosity, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God;

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

rsv@2Corinthians:10:1 @ I, Paul, myself entreat you, by the meekness and gentleness of Christ--I who am humble when face to face with you, but bold to you when I am away!--

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

rsv@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For even if I boast a little too much of our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for destroying you, I shall not be put to shame.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:9 @ I would not seem to be frightening you with letters.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:12 @ Not that we venture to class or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves. But when they measure themselves by one another, and compare themselves with one another, they are without understanding.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we are not overextending ourselves, as though we did not reach you; we were the first to come all the way to you with the gospel of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ We do not boast beyond limit, in other men's labors; but our hope is that as your faith increases, our field among you may be greatly enlarged,

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

rsv@2Corinthians:10:18 @ For it is not the man who commends himself that is accepted, but the man whom the Lord commends.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:1 @ I wish you would bear with me in a little foolishness. Do bear with me!

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:11:7 @ Did I commit a sin in abasing myself so that you might be exalted, because I preached God's gospel without cost to you?

rsv@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was with you and was in want, I did not burden any one, for my needs were supplied by the brethren who came from Macedo'nia. So I refrained and will refrain from burdening you in any way.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:13 @ For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:15 @ So it is not strange if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I repeat, let no one think me foolish; but even if you do, accept me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:17 @ (What I am saying I say not with the Lord's authority but as a fool, in this boastful confidence;

rsv@2Corinthians:11:19 @ For you gladly bear with fools, being wise yourselves!

rsv@2Corinthians:11:20 @ For you bear it if a man makes slaves of you, or preys upon you, or takes advantage of you, or puts on airs, or strikes you in the face.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:22 @ Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they descendants of Abraham? So am I.

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

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:11:27 @ in toil and hardship, through many a sleepless night, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:32 @ At Damascus, the governor under King Ar'etas guarded the city of Damascus in order to seize me,

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

rsv@2Corinthians:12:6 @ Though if I wish to boast, I shall not be a fool, for I shall be speaking the truth. But I refrain from it, so that no one may think more of me than he sees in me or hears from me.

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves before you? It is in the sight of God that we have been speaking in Christ, and all for your upbuilding, beloved.

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:13:2 @ I warned those who sinned before and all the others, and I warn them now while absent, as I did when present on my second visit, that if I come again I will not spare them--

rsv@2Corinthians:13:3 @ since you desire proof that Christ is speaking in me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For he was crucified in weakness, but lives by the power of God. For we are weak in him, but in dealing with you we shall live with him by the power of God.

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@2Corinthians:13:10 @ I write this while I am away from you, in order that when I come I may not have to be severe in my use of the authority which the Lord has given me for building up and not for tearing down.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brethren, farewell. Mend your ways, heed my appeal, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:12 @ Greet one another with a holy kiss.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:14 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Galatians:3:28 @ 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:4:3 @ So with us; when we were children, we were slaves to the elemental spirits of the universe.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Galatians:5:5 @ For through the Spirit, by faith, we wait for the hope of righteousness.

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

rsv@Galatians:5:9 @ A little leaven leavens the whole lump.

rsv@Galatians:5:13 @ For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another.

rsv@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another.

rsv@Galatians:5:16 @ But I say, walk by the Spirit, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh.

rsv@Galatians:5:17 @ For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you would.

rsv@Galatians:5:18 @ But if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law.

rsv@Galatians:5:19 @ Now the works of the flesh are plain: fornication, impurity, licentiousness,

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

rsv@Galatians:5:21 @ envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

rsv@Galatians:5:22 @ But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

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

rsv@Galatians:5:25 @ If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.

rsv@Galatians:5:26 @ Let us have no self-conceit, no provoking of one another, no envy of one another.

rsv@Galatians:6:1 @ Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Look to yourself, lest you too be tempted.

rsv@Galatians:6:6 @ Let him who is taught the word share all good things with him who teaches.

rsv@Galatians:6:8 @ For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption; but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

rsv@Galatians:6:10 @ So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.

rsv@Galatians:6:11 @ See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand.

rsv@Galatians:6:12 @ It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh that would compel you to be circumcised, and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:6:14 @ But far be it from me to glory except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

rsv@Galatians:6:15 @ For neither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.

rsv@Galatians:6:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.

rsv@Ephesians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, To the saints who are also faithful in Christ Jesus:

rsv@Ephesians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places,

rsv@Ephesians:1:10 @ as a plan for the fulness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.

rsv@Ephesians:1:13 @ In him you also, who have heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and have believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,

rsv@Ephesians:1:14 @ which is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory.

rsv@Ephesians:1:15 @ For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints,

rsv@Ephesians:1:17 @ that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him,

rsv@Ephesians:1:18 @ having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints,

rsv@Ephesians:1:20 @ which he accomplished in Christ when he raised him from the dead and made him sit at his right hand in the heavenly places,

rsv@Ephesians:1:21 @ far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come;

rsv@Ephesians:2:2 @ in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience.

rsv@Ephesians:2:4 @ But God, who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which he loved us,

rsv@Ephesians:2:5 @ even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

rsv@Ephesians:2:6 @ and raised us up with him, and made us sit with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,

rsv@Ephesians:2:8 @ For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God--

rsv@Ephesians:2:12 @ remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

rsv@Ephesians:2:14 @ For he is our peace, who has made us both one, and has broken down the dividing wall of hostility,

rsv@Ephesians:2:16 @ and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby bringing the hostility to an end.

rsv@Ephesians:2:18 @ for through him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.

rsv@Ephesians:2:19 @ So then you are no longer strangers and sojourners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,

rsv@Ephesians:2:22 @ in whom you also are built into it for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

rsv@Ephesians:3:3 @ how the mystery was made known to me by revelation, as I have written briefly.

rsv@Ephesians:3:5 @ which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;

rsv@Ephesians:3:10 @ that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places.

rsv@Ephesians:3:12 @ in whom we have boldness and confidence of access through our faith in him.

rsv@Ephesians:3:16 @ that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with might through his Spirit in the inner man,

rsv@Ephesians:3:17 @ and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

rsv@Ephesians:3:18 @ may have power to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,

rsv@Ephesians:3:19 @ and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fulness of God.

rsv@Ephesians:3:20 @ Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think,

rsv@Ephesians:4:2 @ with all lowliness and meekness, with patience, forbearing one another in love,

rsv@Ephesians:4:3 @ eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

rsv@Ephesians:4:4 @ There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call,

rsv@Ephesians:4:5 @ one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

rsv@Ephesians:4:8 @ Therefore it is said, "When he ascended on high he led a host of captives, and he gave gifts to men."

rsv@Ephesians:4:9 @ (In saying, "He ascended," what does it mean but that he had also descended into the lower parts of the earth?

rsv@Ephesians:4:13 @ until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ;

rsv@Ephesians:4:14 @ so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the cunning of men, by their craftiness in deceitful wiles.

rsv@Ephesians:4:16 @ from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by every joint with which it is supplied, when each part is working properly, makes bodily growth and upbuilds itself in love.

rsv@Ephesians:4:17 @ Now this I affirm and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds;

rsv@Ephesians:4:22 @ Put off your old nature which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful lusts,

rsv@Ephesians:4:23 @ and be renewed in the spirit of your minds,

rsv@Ephesians:4:25 @ Therefore, putting away falsehood, let every one speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another.

rsv@Ephesians:4:27 @ and give no opportunity to the devil.

rsv@Ephesians:4:28 @ Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his hands, so that he may be able to give to those in need.

rsv@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for edifying, as fits the occasion, that it may impart grace to those who hear.

rsv@Ephesians:4:30 @ And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

rsv@Ephesians:4:31 @ Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, with all malice,

rsv@Ephesians:5:1 @ Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.

rsv@Ephesians:5:3 @ But fornication and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you, as is fitting among saints.

rsv@Ephesians:5:4 @ Let there be no filthiness, nor silly talk, nor levity, which are not fitting; but instead let there be thanksgiving.

rsv@Ephesians:5:5 @ Be sure of this, that no fornicator or impure man, or one who is covetous (that is, an idolater), has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

rsv@Ephesians:5:6 @ Let no one deceive you with empty words, for it is because of these things that the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

rsv@Ephesians:5:7 @ Therefore do not associate with them,

rsv@Ephesians:5:9 @ (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true),

rsv@Ephesians:5:11 @ Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.

rsv@Ephesians:5:12 @ For it is a shame even to speak of the things that they do in secret;

rsv@Ephesians:5:13 @ but when anything is exposed by the light it becomes visible, for anything that becomes visible is light.

rsv@Ephesians:5:14 @ Therefore it is said, "Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give you light."

rsv@Ephesians:5:18 @ And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery; but be filled with the Spirit,

rsv@Ephesians:5:19 @ addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with all your heart,

rsv@Ephesians:5:23 @ For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior.

rsv@Ephesians:5:26 @ that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,

rsv@Ephesians:5:27 @ that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.

rsv@Ephesians:5:29 @ For no man ever hates his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, as Christ does the church,

rsv@Ephesians:5:32 @ This mystery is a profound one, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church;

rsv@Ephesians:6:2 @ "Honor your father and mother" (this is the first commandment with a promise),

rsv@Ephesians:6:3 @ "that it may be well with you and that you may live long on the earth."

rsv@Ephesians:6:5 @ Slaves, be obedient to those who are your earthly masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of heart, as to Christ;

rsv@Ephesians:6:7 @ rendering service with a good will as to the Lord and not to men,

rsv@Ephesians:6:9 @ Masters, do the same to them, and forbear threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and that there is no partiality with him.

rsv@Ephesians:6:12 @ For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

rsv@Ephesians:6:13 @ Therefore take the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

rsv@Ephesians:6:14 @ Stand therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,

rsv@Ephesians:6:15 @ and having shod your feet with the equipment of the gospel of peace;

rsv@Ephesians:6:16 @ besides all these, taking the shield of faith, with which you can quench all the flaming darts of the evil one.

rsv@Ephesians:6:17 @ And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

rsv@Ephesians:6:18 @ Pray at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints,

rsv@Ephesians:6:20 @ for which I am an ambassador in chains; that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak.

rsv@Ephesians:6:21 @ Now that you also may know how I am and what I am doing, Tych'icus the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord will tell you everything.

rsv@Ephesians:6:23 @ Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Ephesians:6:24 @ Grace be with all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with love undying.

rsv@Philippians:1:1 @ Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philip'pi, with the bishops and deacons:

rsv@Philippians:1:4 @ always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy,

rsv@Philippians:1:6 @ And I am sure that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

rsv@Philippians:1:7 @ It is right for me to feel thus about you all, because I hold you in my heart, for you are all partakers with me of grace, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel.

rsv@Philippians:1:8 @ For God is my witness, how I yearn for you all with the affection of Christ Jesus.

rsv@Philippians:1:9 @ And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment,

rsv@Philippians:1:11 @ filled with the fruits of righteousness which come through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

rsv@Philippians:1:13 @ so that it has become known throughout the whole praetorian guard and to all the rest that my imprisonment is for Christ;

rsv@Philippians:1:14 @ and most of the brethren have been made confident in the Lord because of my imprisonment, and are much more bold to speak the word of God without fear.

rsv@Philippians:1:16 @ The latter do it out of love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel;

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:1:20 @ as it is my eager expectation and hope that I shall not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death.

rsv@Philippians:1:22 @ If it is to be life in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell.

rsv@Philippians:1:23 @ I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better.

rsv@Philippians:1:25 @ Convinced of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith,

rsv@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you stand firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel,

rsv@Philippians:1:29 @ For it has been granted to you that for the sake of Christ you should not only believe in him but also suffer for his sake,

rsv@Philippians:2:1 @ So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any incentive of love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy,

rsv@Philippians:2:3 @ Do nothing from selfishness or conceit, but in humility count others better than yourselves.

rsv@Philippians:2:6 @ who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,

rsv@Philippians:2:12 @ Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;

rsv@Philippians:2:14 @ Do all things without grumbling or questioning,

rsv@Philippians:2:15 @ that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,

rsv@Philippians:2:17 @ Even if I am to be poured as a libation upon the sacrificial offering of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all.

rsv@Philippians:2:18 @ Likewise you also should be glad and rejoice with me.

rsv@Philippians:2:22 @ But Timothy's worth you know, how as a son with a father he has served with me in the gospel.

rsv@Philippians:2:23 @ I hope therefore to send him just as soon as I see how it will go with me;

rsv@Philippians:2:25 @ I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphrodi'tus my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to my need,

rsv@Philippians:2:29 @ So receive him in the Lord with all joy; and honor such men,

rsv@Philippians:3:1 @ Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is not irksome to me, and is safe for you.

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:3:9 @ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, based on law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith;

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:3:13 @ Brethren, I do not consider that I have made it my own; but one thing I do, forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead,

rsv@Philippians:3:17 @ Brethren, join in imitating me, and mark those who so live as you have an example in us.

rsv@Philippians:3:18 @ For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, live as enemies of the cross of Christ.

rsv@Philippians:3:19 @ Their end is destruction, their god is the belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things.

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

rsv@Philippians:4:3 @ And I ask you also, true yokefellow, help these women, for they have labored side by side with me in the gospel together with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.

rsv@Philippians:4:6 @ Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

rsv@Philippians:4:9 @ What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, do; and the God of peace will be with you.

rsv@Philippians:4:10 @ I rejoice in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me; you were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity.

rsv@Philippians:4:14 @ Yet it was kind of you to share my trouble.

rsv@Philippians:4:15 @ And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedo'nia, no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving except you only;

rsv@Philippians:4:17 @ Not that I seek the gift; but I seek the fruit which increases to your credit.

rsv@Philippians:4:21 @ Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren who are with me greet you.

rsv@Philippians:4:23 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

rsv@Colossians:1:2 @ To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ at Colos'sae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.

rsv@Colossians:1:4 @ because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you have for all the saints,

rsv@Colossians:1:6 @ which has come to you, as indeed in the whole world it is bearing fruit and growing--so among yourselves, from the day you heard and understood the grace of God in truth,

rsv@Colossians:1:7 @ as you learned it from Ep'aphras our beloved fellow servant. He is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf

rsv@Colossians:1:8 @ and has made known to us your love in the Spirit.

rsv@Colossians:1:9 @ And so, from the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,

rsv@Colossians:1:10 @ to lead a life worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.

rsv@Colossians:1:11 @ May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy,

rsv@Colossians:1:12 @ giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in light.

rsv@Colossians:1:16 @ for in him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or authorities--all things were created through him and for him.

rsv@Colossians:1:23 @ provided that you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which has been preached to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a minister.

rsv@Colossians:1:29 @ For this I toil, striving with all the energy which he mightily inspires within me.

rsv@Colossians:2:2 @ that their hearts may be encouraged as they are knit together in love, to have all the riches of assured understanding and the knowledge of God's mystery, of Christ,

rsv@Colossians:2:4 @ I say this in order that no one may delude you with beguiling speech.

rsv@Colossians:2:5 @ For though I am absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and the firmness of your faith in Christ.

rsv@Colossians:2:7 @ rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.

rsv@Colossians:2:8 @ See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ.

rsv@Colossians:2:9 @ For in him the whole fulness of deity dwells bodily,

rsv@Colossians:2:10 @ and you have come to fulness of life in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.

rsv@Colossians:2:11 @ In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of flesh in the circumcision of Christ;

rsv@Colossians:2:12 @ and you were buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.

rsv@Colossians:2:13 @ And you, who were dead in trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,

rsv@Colossians:2:14 @ having canceled the bond which stood against us with its legal demands; this he set aside, nailing it to the cross.

rsv@Colossians:2:15 @ He disarmed the principalities and powers and made a public example of them, triumphing over them in him.

rsv@Colossians:2:16 @ Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a sabbath.

rsv@Colossians:2:18 @ Let no one disqualify you, insisting on self-abasement and worship of angels, taking his stand on visions, puffed up without reason by his sensuous mind,

rsv@Colossians:2:19 @ and not holding fast to the Head, from whom the whole body, nourished and knit together through its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God.

rsv@Colossians:2:20 @ If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the universe, why do you live as if you still belonged to the world? Why do you submit to regulations,

rsv@Colossians:2:23 @ These have indeed an appearance of wisdom in promoting rigor of devotion and self-abasement and severity to the body, but they are of no value in checking the indulgence of the flesh.

rsv@Colossians:3:1 @ If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.

rsv@Colossians:3:3 @ For you have died, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

rsv@Colossians:3:4 @ When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

rsv@Colossians:3:5 @ Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: fornication, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

rsv@Colossians:3:9 @ Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old nature with its practices

rsv@Colossians:3:10 @ and have put on the new nature, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.

rsv@Colossians:3:16 @ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teach and admonish one another in all wisdom, and sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

rsv@Colossians:3:18 @ Wives, be subject to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:3:19 @ Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them.

rsv@Colossians:3:22 @ Slaves, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:3:24 @ knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward; you are serving the Lord Christ.

rsv@Colossians:3:25 @ For the wrongdoer will be paid back for the wrong he has done, and there is no partiality.

rsv@Colossians:4:2 @ Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving;

rsv@Colossians:4:4 @ that I may make it clear, as I ought to speak.

rsv@Colossians:4:6 @ Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer every one.

rsv@Colossians:4:7 @ Tych'icus will tell you all about my affairs; he is a beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:4:9 @ and with him Ones'imus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of yourselves. They will tell you of everything that has taken place here.

rsv@Colossians:4:13 @ For I bear him witness that he has worked hard for you and for those in La-odice'a and in Hi-erap'olis.

rsv@Colossians:4:16 @ And when this letter has been read among you, have it read also in the church of the La-odice'ans; and see that you read also the letter from La-odice'a.

rsv@Colossians:4:18 @ I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. Remember my fetters. Grace be with you.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:3 @ remembering before our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ for our gospel came to you not only in word, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction. You know what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, for you received the word in much affliction, with joy inspired by the Holy Spirit;

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For not only has the word of the Lord sounded forth from you in Macedo'nia and Acha'ia, but your faith in God has gone forth everywhere, so that we need not say anything.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:10 @ and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:1 @ For you yourselves know, brethren, that our visit to you was not in vain;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ but though we had already suffered and been shamefully treated at Philip'pi, as you know, we had courage in our God to declare to you the gospel of God in the face of great opposition.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:3 @ For our appeal does not spring from error or uncleanness, nor is it made with guile;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ but just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please men, but to please God who tests our hearts.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For we never used either words of flattery, as you know, or a cloak for greed, as God is witness;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So, being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become very dear to us.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses, and God also, how holy and righteous and blameless was our behavior to you believers;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:11 @ for you know how, like a father with his children, we exhorted each one of you and encouraged you and charged you

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus which are in Judea; for you suffered the same things from your own countrymen as they did from the Jews,

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But since we were bereft of you, brethren, for a short time, in person not in heart, we endeavored the more eagerly and with great desire to see you face to face;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is our hope or joy or crown of boasting before our Lord Jesus at his coming? Is it not you?

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:1 @ Therefore when we could bear it no longer, we were willing to be left behind at Athens alone,

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ and we sent Timothy, our brother and God's servant in the gospel of Christ, to establish you in your faith and to exhort you,

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we were to suffer affliction; just as it has come to pass, and as you know.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this reason, when I could bear it no longer, I sent that I might know your faith, for fear that somehow the tempter had tempted you and that our labor would be in vain.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and has brought us the good news of your faith and love and reported that you always remember us kindly and long to see us, as we long to see you--

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ for this reason, brethren, in all our distress and affliction we have been comforted about you through your faith;

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ praying earnestly night and day that we may see you face to face and supply what is lacking in your faith?

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ so that he may establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:3 @ For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from unchastity;

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ But concerning love of the brethren you have no need to have any one write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another;

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ to aspire to live quietly, to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we charged you;

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@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the archangel's call, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first;

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ then we who are alive, who are left, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so we shall always be with the Lord.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:18 @ Therefore comfort one another with these words.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But as to the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need to have anything written to you.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ When people say, "There is peace and security," then sudden destruction will come upon them as travail comes upon a woman with child, and there will be no escape.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But, since we belong to the day, let us be sober, and put on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ who died for us so that whether we wake or sleep we might live with him.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ And we exhort you, brethren, admonish the idlers, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with them all.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:19 @ Do not quench the Spirit,

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ May the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept sound and blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:24 @ He who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:26 @ Greet all the brethren with a holy kiss.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:28 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ We are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, as is fitting, because your faith is growing abundantly, and the love of every one of you for one another is increasing.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ Therefore we ourselves boast of you in the churches of God for your steadfastness and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you are enduring.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ since indeed God deems it just to repay with affliction those who afflict you,

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ and to grant rest with us to you who are afflicted, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire,

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:11 @ To this end we always pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his call, and may fulfil every good resolve and work of faith by his power,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be quickly shaken in mind or excited, either by spirit or by word, or by letter purporting to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one deceive you in any way; for that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of perdition,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you this?

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:7 @ For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:8 @ 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:2:9 @ The coming of the lawless one by the activity of Satan will be with all power and with pretended signs and wonders,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ and with all wicked deception for those who are to perish, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may speed on and triumph, as it did among you,

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ and that we may be delivered from wicked and evil men; for not all have faith.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:3 @ But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from evil.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For you yourselves know how you ought to imitate us; we were not idle when we were with you,

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ we did not eat any one's bread without paying, but with toil and labor we worked night and day, that we might not burden any of you.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ It was not because we have not that right, but to give you in our conduct an example to imitate.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:10 @ For even when we were with you, we gave you this command: If any one will not work, let him not eat.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:14 @ If any one refuses to obey what we say in this letter, note that man, and have nothing to do with him, that he may be ashamed.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you all.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:17 @ I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. This is the mark in every letter of mine; it is the way I write.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

rsv@1Timothy:1:7 @ desiring to be teachers of the law, without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make assertions.

rsv@1Timothy:1:8 @ Now we know that the law is good, if any one uses it lawfully,

rsv@1Timothy:1:10 @ immoral persons, sodomites, kidnapers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine,

rsv@1Timothy:1:11 @ in accordance with the glorious gospel of the blessed God with which I have been entrusted.

rsv@1Timothy:1:12 @ I thank him who has given me strength for this, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he judged me faithful by appointing me to his service,

rsv@1Timothy:1:14 @ and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

rsv@1Timothy:1:18 @ This charge I commit to you, Timothy, my son, in accordance with the prophetic utterances which pointed to you, that inspired by them you may wage the good warfare,

rsv@1Timothy:2:2 @ for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life, godly and respectful in every way.

rsv@1Timothy:2:3 @ This is good, and it is acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,

rsv@1Timothy:2:7 @ For this I was appointed a preacher and apostle (I am telling the truth, I am not lying), a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

rsv@1Timothy:2:8 @ I desire then that in every place the men should pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling;

rsv@1Timothy:2:9 @ also that women should adorn themselves modestly and sensibly in seemly apparel, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly attire

rsv@1Timothy:2:10 @ but by good deeds, as befits women who profess religion.

rsv@1Timothy:2:11 @ Let a woman learn in silence with all submissiveness.

rsv@1Timothy:2:12 @ I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over men; she is to keep silent.

rsv@1Timothy:2:15 @ Yet woman will be saved through bearing children, if she continues in faith and love and holiness, with modesty.

rsv@1Timothy:3:2 @ Now a bishop must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, dignified, hospitable, an apt teacher,

rsv@1Timothy:3:6 @ He must not be a recent convert, or he may be puffed up with conceit and fall into the condemnation of the devil;

rsv@1Timothy:3:9 @ they must hold the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience.

rsv@1Timothy:3:11 @ The women likewise must be serious, no slanderers, but temperate, faithful in all things.

rsv@1Timothy:3:13 @ for those who serve well as deacons gain a good standing for themselves and also great confidence in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

rsv@1Timothy:3:14 @ I hope to come to you soon, but I am writing these instructions to you so that,

rsv@1Timothy:3:16 @ Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of our religion: He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.

rsv@1Timothy:4:1 @ Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by giving heed to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons,

rsv@1Timothy:4:3 @ who forbid marriage and enjoin abstinence from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.

rsv@1Timothy:4:4 @ For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving;

rsv@1Timothy:4:5 @ for then it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer.

rsv@1Timothy:4:6 @ If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed.

rsv@1Timothy:4:7 @ Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness;

rsv@1Timothy:4:8 @ for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.

rsv@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

rsv@1Timothy:5:2 @ older women like mothers, younger women like sisters, in all purity.

rsv@1Timothy:5:7 @ Command this, so that they may be without reproach.

rsv@1Timothy:5:8 @ If any one does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his own family, he has disowned the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.

rsv@1Timothy:5:10 @ and she must be well attested for her good deeds, as one who has brought up children, shown hospitality, washed the feet of the saints, relieved the afflicted, and devoted herself to doing good in every way.

rsv@1Timothy:5:16 @ If any believing woman has relatives who are widows, let her assist them; let the church not be burdened, so that it may assist those who are real widows.

rsv@1Timothy:5:18 @ for the scripture says, "You shall not muzzle an ox when it is treading out the grain," and, "The laborer deserves his wages."

rsv@1Timothy:5:19 @ Never admit any charge against an elder except on the evidence of two or three witnesses.

rsv@1Timothy:5:21 @ In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of the elect angels I charge you to keep these rules without favor, doing nothing from partiality.

rsv@1Timothy:5:23 @ No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.

rsv@1Timothy:6:2 @ Those who have believing masters must not be disrespectful on the ground that they are brethren; rather they must serve all the better since those who benefit by their service are believers and beloved. Teach and urge these duties.

rsv@1Timothy:6:3 @ If any one teaches otherwise and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching which accords with godliness,

rsv@1Timothy:6:4 @ he is puffed up with conceit, he knows nothing; he has a morbid craving for controversy and for disputes about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, base suspicions,

rsv@1Timothy:6:6 @ There is great gain in godliness with contentment;

rsv@1Timothy:6:8 @ but if we have food and clothing, with these we shall be content.

rsv@1Timothy:6:10 @ For the love of money is the root of all evils; it is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced their hearts with many pangs.

rsv@1Timothy:6:11 @ But as for you, man of God, shun all this; aim at righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness.

rsv@1Timothy:6:12 @ Fight the good fight of the faith; take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

rsv@1Timothy:6:16 @ who alone has immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has ever seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal dominion. Amen.

rsv@1Timothy:6:17 @ As for the rich in this world, charge them not to be haughty, nor to set their hopes on uncertain riches but on God who richly furnishes us with everything to enjoy.

rsv@1Timothy:6:21 @ for by professing it some have missed the mark as regards the faith. Grace be with you.

rsv@2Timothy:1:3 @ I thank God whom I serve with a clear conscience, as did my fathers, when I remember you constantly in my prayers.

rsv@2Timothy:1:4 @ As I remember your tears, I long night and day to see you, that I may be filled with joy.

rsv@2Timothy:1:5 @ I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lo'is and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you.

rsv@2Timothy:1:6 @ Hence I remind you to rekindle the gift of God that is within you through the laying on of my hands;

rsv@2Timothy:1:7 @ for God did not give us a spirit of timidity but a spirit of power and love and self-control.

rsv@2Timothy:1:9 @ who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not in virtue of our works but in virtue of his own purpose and the grace which he gave us in Christ Jesus ages ago,

rsv@2Timothy:1:10 @ and now has manifested through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.

rsv@2Timothy:1:13 @ Follow the pattern of the sound words which you have heard from me, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus;

rsv@2Timothy:1:14 @ guard the truth that has been entrusted to you by the Holy Spirit who dwells within us.

rsv@2Timothy:2:2 @ and what you have heard from me before many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.

rsv@2Timothy:2:4 @ No soldier on service gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to satisfy the one who enlisted him.

rsv@2Timothy:2:6 @ It is the hard-working farmer who ought to have the first share of the crops.

rsv@2Timothy:2:10 @ Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain salvation in Christ Jesus with its eternal glory.

rsv@2Timothy:2:11 @ The saying is sure: If we have died with him, we shall also live with him;

rsv@2Timothy:2:12 @ if we endure, we shall also reign with him; if we deny him, he also will deny us;

rsv@2Timothy:2:13 @ if we are faithless, he remains faithful-- for he cannot deny himself.

rsv@2Timothy:2:16 @ Avoid such godless chatter, for it will lead people into more and more ungodliness,

rsv@2Timothy:2:17 @ and their talk will eat its way like gangrene. Among them are Hymenae'us and Phile'tus,

rsv@2Timothy:2:18 @ who have swerved from the truth by holding that the resurrection is past already. They are upsetting the faith of some.

rsv@2Timothy:2:19 @ But God's firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: "The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity."

rsv@2Timothy:2:22 @ So shun youthful passions and aim at righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call upon the Lord from a pure heart.

rsv@2Timothy:2:23 @ Have nothing to do with stupid, senseless controversies; you know that they breed quarrels.

rsv@2Timothy:2:25 @ correcting his opponents with gentleness. God may perhaps grant that they will repent and come to know the truth,

rsv@2Timothy:3:4 @ treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

rsv@2Timothy:3:5 @ holding the form of religion but denying the power of it. Avoid such people.

rsv@2Timothy:3:6 @ For among them are those who make their way into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and swayed by various impulses,

rsv@2Timothy:3:8 @ As Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of corrupt mind and counterfeit faith;

rsv@2Timothy:3:10 @ Now you have observed my teaching, my conduct, my aim in life, my faith, my patience, my love, my steadfastness,

rsv@2Timothy:3:14 @ But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it

rsv@2Timothy:3:15 @ and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings which are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

rsv@2Timothy:3:16 @ All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,

rsv@2Timothy:4:3 @ For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own likings,

rsv@2Timothy:4:7 @ I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

rsv@2Timothy:4:10 @ For Demas, in love with this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessaloni'ca; Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

rsv@2Timothy:4:11 @ Luke alone is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you; for he is very useful in serving me.

rsv@2Timothy:4:13 @ When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Tro'as, also the books, and above all the parchments.

rsv@2Timothy:4:14 @ Alexander the coppersmith did me great harm; the Lord will requite him for his deeds.

rsv@2Timothy:4:16 @ At my first defense no one took my part; all deserted me. May it not be charged against them!

rsv@2Timothy:4:17 @ But the Lord stood by me and gave me strength to proclaim the message fully, that all the Gentiles might hear it. So I was rescued from the lion's mouth.

rsv@2Timothy:4:22 @ The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you.

rsv@Titus:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to further the faith of God's elect and their knowledge of the truth which accords with godliness,

rsv@Titus:1:2 @ in hope of eternal life which God, who never lies, promised ages ago

rsv@Titus:1:4 @ To Titus, my true child in a common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior.

rsv@Titus:1:5 @ This is why I left you in Crete, that you might amend what was defective, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you,

rsv@Titus:1:6 @ if any man is blameless, the husband of one wife, and his children are believers and not open to the charge of being profligate or insubordinate.

rsv@Titus:1:7 @ For a bishop, as God's steward, must be blameless; he must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain,

rsv@Titus:1:8 @ but hospitable, a lover of goodness, master of himself, upright, holy, and self-controlled;

rsv@Titus:1:9 @ he must hold firm to the sure word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and also to confute those who contradict it.

rsv@Titus:1:10 @ For there are many insubordinate men, empty talkers and deceivers, especially the circumcision party;

rsv@Titus:1:11 @ they must be silenced, since they are upsetting whole families by teaching for base gain what they have no right to teach.

rsv@Titus:1:12 @ One of themselves, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons."

rsv@Titus:1:13 @ This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,

rsv@Titus:1:14 @ instead of giving heed to Jewish myths or to commands of men who reject the truth.

rsv@Titus:1:15 @ To the pure all things are pure, but to the corrupt and unbelieving nothing is pure; their very minds and consciences are corrupted.

rsv@Titus:1:16 @ They profess to know God, but they deny him by their deeds; they are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good deed.

rsv@Titus:2:1 @ But as for you, teach what befits sound doctrine.

rsv@Titus:2:2 @ Bid the older men be temperate, serious, sensible, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness.

rsv@Titus:2:3 @ Bid the older women likewise to be reverent in behavior, not to be slanderers or slaves to drink; they are to teach what is good,

rsv@Titus:2:4 @ and so train the young women to love their husbands and children,

rsv@Titus:2:5 @ to be sensible, chaste, domestic, kind, and submissive to their husbands, that the word of God may not be discredited.

rsv@Titus:2:6 @ Likewise urge the younger men to control themselves.

rsv@Titus:2:7 @ Show yourself in all respects a model of good deeds, and in your teaching show integrity, gravity,

rsv@Titus:2:8 @ and sound speech that cannot be censured, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say of us.

rsv@Titus:2:9 @ Bid slaves to be submissive to their masters and to give satisfaction in every respect; they are not to be refractory,

rsv@Titus:2:10 @ nor to pilfer, but to show entire and true fidelity, so that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior.

rsv@Titus:2:11 @ For the grace of God has appeared for the salvation of all men,

rsv@Titus:2:12 @ training us to renounce irreligion and worldly passions, and to live sober, upright, and godly lives in this world,

rsv@Titus:2:13 @ awaiting our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,

rsv@Titus:2:14 @ who gave himself for us to redeem us from all iniquity and to purify for himself a people of his own who are zealous for good deeds.

rsv@Titus:2:15 @ Declare these things; exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one disregard you.

rsv@Titus:3:1 @ Remind them to be submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for any honest work,

rsv@Titus:3:2 @ to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all men.

rsv@Titus:3:3 @ For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by men and hating one another;

rsv@Titus:3:4 @ but when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared,

rsv@Titus:3:5 @ he saved us, not because of deeds done by us in righteousness, but in virtue of his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal in the Holy Spirit,

rsv@Titus:3:6 @ which he poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior,

rsv@Titus:3:7 @ so that we might be justified by his grace and become heirs in hope of eternal life.

rsv@Titus:3:8 @ The saying is sure. I desire you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to apply themselves to good deeds; these are excellent and profitable to men.

rsv@Titus:3:9 @ But avoid stupid controversies, genealogies, dissensions, and quarrels over the law, for they are unprofitable and futile.

rsv@Titus:3:10 @ As for a man who is factious, after admonishing him once or twice, have nothing more to do with him,

rsv@Titus:3:12 @ When I send Artemas or Tych'icus to you, do your best to come to me at Nicop'olis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.

rsv@Titus:3:13 @ Do your best to speed Zenas the lawyer and Apol'los on their way; see that they lack nothing.

rsv@Titus:3:14 @ And let our people learn to apply themselves to good deeds, so as to help cases of urgent need, and not to be unfruitful.

rsv@Titus:3:15 @ All who are with me send greetings to you. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.

rsv@Philemon:1:5 @ because I hear of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and all the saints,

rsv@Philemon:1:6 @ and I pray that the sharing of your faith may promote the knowledge of all the good that is ours in Christ.

rsv@Philemon:1:13 @ I would have been glad to keep him with me, in order that he might serve me on your behalf during my imprisonment for the gospel;

rsv@Philemon:1:14 @ but I preferred to do nothing without your consent in order that your goodness might not be by compulsion but of your own free will.

rsv@Philemon:1:19 @ I, Paul, write this with my own hand, I will repay it--to say nothing of your owing me even your own self.

rsv@Philemon:1:20 @ Yes, brother, I want some benefit from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ.

rsv@Hebrews:2:3 @ how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared at first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard him,

rsv@Hebrews:2:4 @ while God also bore witness by signs and wonders and various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his own will.

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

rsv@Hebrews:2:6 @ It has been testified somewhere, "What is man that thou art mindful of him, or the son of man, that thou carest for him?

rsv@Hebrews:2:7 @ Thou didst make him for a little while lower than the angels, thou hast crowned him with glory and honor,

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:2:10 @ For it was fitting that he, for whom and by whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through suffering.

rsv@Hebrews:2:16 @ For surely it is not with angels that he is concerned but with the descendants of Abraham.

rsv@Hebrews:2:17 @ Therefore he had to be made like his brethren in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make expiation for the sins of the people.

rsv@Hebrews:3:2 @ He was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in God's house.

rsv@Hebrews:3:5 @ Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later,

rsv@Hebrews:3:6 @ but Christ was faithful over God's house as a son. And we are his house if we hold fast our confidence and pride in our hope.

rsv@Hebrews:3:7 @ Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, "Today, when you hear his voice,

rsv@Hebrews:3:10 @ Therefore I was provoked with that generation, and said, `They always go astray in their hearts; they have not known my ways.'

rsv@Hebrews:3:13 @ But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called "today," that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

rsv@Hebrews:3:15 @ while it is said, "Today, when you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion."

rsv@Hebrews:3:16 @ Who were they that heard and yet were rebellious? Was it not all those who left Egypt under the leadership of Moses?

rsv@Hebrews:3:17 @ And with whom was he provoked forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?

rsv@Hebrews:4:1 @ Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest remains, let us fear lest any of you be judged to have failed to reach it.

rsv@Hebrews:4:2 @ For good news came to us just as to them; but the message which they heard did not benefit them, because it did not meet with faith in the hearers.

rsv@Hebrews:4:6 @ Since therefore it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly received the good news failed to enter because of disobedience,

rsv@Hebrews:4:12 @ For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and spirit, of joints and marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

rsv@Hebrews:4:13 @ And before him no creature is hidden, but all are open and laid bare to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

rsv@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we have not a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.

rsv@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

rsv@Hebrews:5:2 @ He can deal gently with the ignorant and wayward, since he himself is beset with weakness.

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:6:1 @ Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,

rsv@Hebrews:6:2 @ with instruction about ablutions, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.

rsv@Hebrews:6:3 @ And this we will do if God permits.

rsv@Hebrews:6:4 @ For it is impossible to restore again to repentance those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit,

rsv@Hebrews:6:6 @ if they then commit apostasy, since they crucify the Son of God on their own account and hold him up to contempt.

rsv@Hebrews:6:7 @ For land which has drunk the rain that often falls upon it, and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God.

rsv@Hebrews:6:8 @ But if it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed; its end is to be burned.

rsv@Hebrews:6:12 @ so that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

rsv@Hebrews:6:17 @ So when God desired to show more convincingly to the heirs of the promise the unchangeable character of his purpose, he interposed with an oath,

rsv@Hebrews:6:18 @ so that through two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible that God should prove false, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to seize the hope set before us.

rsv@Hebrews:7:3 @ He is without father or mother or genealogy, and has neither beginning of days nor end of life, but resembling the Son of God he continues a priest for ever.

rsv@Hebrews:7:4 @ See how great he is! Abraham the patriarch gave him a tithe of the spoils.

rsv@Hebrews:7:5 @ And those descendants of Levi who receive the priestly office have a commandment in the law to take tithes from the people, that is, from their brethren, though these also are descended from Abraham.

rsv@Hebrews:7:6 @ But this man who has not their genealogy received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.

rsv@Hebrews:7:7 @ It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.

rsv@Hebrews:7:8 @ Here tithes are received by mortal men; there, by one of whom it is testified that he lives.

rsv@Hebrews:7:9 @ One might even say that Levi himself, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham,

rsv@Hebrews:7:11 @ Now if perfection had been attainable through the Levit'ical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need would there have been for another priest to arise after the order of Melchiz'edek, rather than one named after the order of Aaron?

rsv@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.

rsv@Hebrews:7:17 @ For it is witnessed of him, "Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchiz'edek."

rsv@Hebrews:7:18 @ On the one hand, a former commandment is set aside because of its weakness and uselessness

rsv@Hebrews:7:20 @ And it was not without an oath.

rsv@Hebrews:7:21 @ Those who formerly became priests took their office without an oath, but this one was addressed with an oath, "The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind, `Thou art a priest for ever.'"

rsv@Hebrews:7:26 @ For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, blameless, unstained, separated from sinners, exalted above the heavens.

rsv@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices; hence it is necessary for this priest also to have something to offer.

rsv@Hebrews:8:6 @ But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry which is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises.

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

rsv@Hebrews:8:9 @ not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; for they did not continue in my covenant, and so I paid no heed to them, says the Lord.

rsv@Hebrews:8:10 @ This is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

rsv@Hebrews:8:12 @ For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more."

rsv@Hebrews:9:2 @ For a tent was prepared, the outer one, in which were the lampstand and the table and the bread of the Presence; it is called the Holy Place.

rsv@Hebrews:9:4 @ having the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, which contained a golden urn holding the manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;

rsv@Hebrews:9:5 @ above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.

rsv@Hebrews:9:6 @ These preparations having thus been made, the priests go continually into the outer tent, performing their ritual duties;

rsv@Hebrews:9:7 @ but into the second only the high priest goes, and he but once a year, and not without taking blood which he offers for himself and for the errors of the people.

rsv@Hebrews:9:8 @ By this the Holy Spirit indicates that the way into the sanctuary is not yet opened as long as the outer tent is still standing

rsv@Hebrews:9:10 @ but deal only with food and drink and various ablutions, regulations for the body imposed until the time of reformation.

rsv@Hebrews:9:11 @ But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation)

rsv@Hebrews:9:13 @ For if the sprinkling of defiled persons with the blood of goats and bulls and with the ashes of a heifer sanctifies for the purification of the flesh,

rsv@Hebrews:9:14 @ how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify your conscience from dead works to serve the living God.

rsv@Hebrews:9:15 @ Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred which redeems them from the transgressions under the first covenant.

rsv@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where a will is involved, the death of the one who made it must be established.

rsv@Hebrews:9:17 @ For a will takes effect only at death, since it is not in force as long as the one who made it is alive.

rsv@Hebrews:9:18 @ Hence even the first covenant was not ratified without blood.

rsv@Hebrews:9:19 @ For when every commandment of the law had been declared by Moses to all the people, he took the blood of calves and goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,

rsv@Hebrews:9:21 @ And in the same way he sprinkled with the blood both the tent and all the vessels used in worship.

rsv@Hebrews:9:22 @ Indeed, under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins.

rsv@Hebrews:9:23 @ Thus it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these rites, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

rsv@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ has entered, not into a sanctuary made with hands, a copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf.

rsv@Hebrews:9:25 @ Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the Holy Place yearly with blood not his own;

rsv@Hebrews:9:26 @ for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the age to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

rsv@Hebrews:9:27 @ And just as it is appointed for men to die once, and after that comes judgment,

rsv@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.

rsv@Hebrews:10:1 @ For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices which are continually offered year after year, make perfect those who draw near.

rsv@Hebrews:10:4 @ For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins.

rsv@Hebrews:10:7 @ Then I said, `Lo, I have come to do thy will, O God,' as it is written of me in the roll of the book."

rsv@Hebrews:10:8 @ When he said above, "Thou hast neither desired nor taken pleasure in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings" (these are offered according to the law),

rsv@Hebrews:10:13 @ then to wait until his enemies should be made a stool for his feet.

rsv@Hebrews:10:15 @ And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,

rsv@Hebrews:10:16 @ "This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts, and write them on their minds,"

rsv@Hebrews:10:22 @ let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

rsv@Hebrews:10:23 @ Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful;

rsv@Hebrews:10:25 @ not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

rsv@Hebrews:10:28 @ A man who has violated the law of Moses dies without mercy at the testimony of two or three witnesses.

rsv@Hebrews:10:29 @ How much worse punishment do you think will be deserved by the man who has spurned the Son of God, and profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and outraged the Spirit of grace?

rsv@Hebrews:10:31 @ It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

rsv@Hebrews:10:32 @ But recall the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings,

rsv@Hebrews:10:33 @ sometimes being publicly exposed to abuse and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated.

rsv@Hebrews:10:37 @ "For yet a little while, and the coming one shall come and shall not tarry;

rsv@Hebrews:10:38 @ but my righteous one shall live by faith, and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him."

rsv@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and keep their souls.

rsv@Hebrews:11:1 @ Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

rsv@Hebrews:11:2 @ For by it the men of old received divine approval.

rsv@Hebrews:11:3 @ By faith we understand that the world was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was made out of things which do not appear.

rsv@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, through which he received approval as righteous, God bearing witness by accepting his gifts; he died, but through his faith he is still speaking.

rsv@Hebrews:11:5 @ By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death; and he was not found, because God had taken him. Now before he was taken he was attested as having pleased God.

rsv@Hebrews:11:6 @ And without faith it is impossible to please him. For whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.

rsv@Hebrews:11:7 @ By faith Noah, being warned by God concerning events as yet unseen, took heed and constructed an ark for the saving of his household; by this he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness which comes by faith.

rsv@Hebrews:11:8 @ By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place which he was to receive as an inheritance; and he went out, not knowing where he was to go.

rsv@Hebrews:11:9 @ By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a foreign land, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, heirs with him of the same promise.

rsv@Hebrews:11:10 @ For he looked forward to the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

rsv@Hebrews:11:11 @ By faith Sarah herself received power to conceive, even when she was past the age, since she considered him faithful who had promised.

rsv@Hebrews:11:13 @ These all died in faith, not having received what was promised, but having seen it and greeted it from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.

rsv@Hebrews:11:14 @ For people who speak thus make it clear that they are seeking a homeland.

rsv@Hebrews:11:15 @ If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return.

rsv@Hebrews:11:16 @ But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.

rsv@Hebrews:11:17 @ By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was ready to offer up his only son,

rsv@Hebrews:11:18 @ of whom it was said, "Through Isaac shall your descendants be named."

rsv@Hebrews:11:20 @ By faith Isaac invoked future blessings on Jacob and Esau.

rsv@Hebrews:11:21 @ By faith Jacob, when dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, bowing in worship over the head of his staff.

rsv@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith Joseph, at the end of his life, made mention of the exodus of the Israelites and gave directions concerning his burial.

rsv@Hebrews:11:23 @ By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid for three months by his parents, because they saw that the child was beautiful; and they were not afraid of the king's edict.

rsv@Hebrews:11:24 @ By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,

rsv@Hebrews:11:25 @ choosing rather to share ill-treatment with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin.

rsv@Hebrews:11:27 @ By faith he left Egypt, not being afraid of the anger of the king; for he endured as seeing him who is invisible.

rsv@Hebrews:11:28 @ By faith he kept the Passover and sprinkled the blood, so that the Destroyer of the first-born might not touch them.

rsv@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith the people crossed the Red Sea as if on dry land; but the Egyptians, when they attempted to do the same, were drowned.

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

rsv@Hebrews:11:31 @ By faith Rahab the harlot did not perish with those who were disobedient, because she had given friendly welcome to the spies.

rsv@Hebrews:11:33 @ who through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, received promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

rsv@Hebrews:11:37 @ They were stoned, they were sawn in two, they were killed with the sword; they went about in skins of sheep and goats, destitute, afflicted, ill-treated--

rsv@Hebrews:11:39 @ And all these, though well attested by their faith, did not receive what was promised,

rsv@Hebrews:12:1 @ Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us,

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:12:3 @ Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.

rsv@Hebrews:12:7 @ It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

rsv@Hebrews:12:8 @ If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.

rsv@Hebrews:12:9 @ 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:12:11 @ For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant; later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

rsv@Hebrews:12:14 @ Strive for peace with all men, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord.

rsv@Hebrews:12:15 @ See to it that no one fail to obtain the grace of God; that no "root of bitterness" spring up and cause trouble, and by it the many become defiled;

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:12:20 @ For they could not endure the order that was given, "If even a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned."

rsv@Hebrews:12:21 @ Indeed, so terrifying was the sight that Moses said, "I tremble with fear."

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:12:23 @ and to the assembly of the first-born who are enrolled in heaven, and to a judge who is God of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

rsv@Hebrews:12:28 @ Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe;

rsv@Hebrews:13:2 @ Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

rsv@Hebrews:13:3 @ Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them; and those who are ill-treated, since you also are in the body.

rsv@Hebrews:13:5 @ Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have; for he has said, "I will never fail you nor forsake you."

rsv@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God; consider the outcome of their life, and imitate their faith.

rsv@Hebrews:13:9 @ Do not be led away by diverse and strange teachings; for it is well that the heart be strengthened by grace, not by foods, which have not benefited their adherents.

rsv@Hebrews:13:14 @ For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city which is to come.

rsv@Hebrews:13:15 @ Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.

rsv@Hebrews:13:17 @ Obey your leaders and submit to them; for they are keeping watch over your souls, as men who will have to give account. Let them do this joyfully, and not sadly, for that would be of no advantage to you.

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@Hebrews:13:22 @ I appeal to you, brethren, bear with my word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly.

rsv@Hebrews:13:23 @ You should understand that our brother Timothy has been released, with whom I shall see you if he comes soon.

rsv@Hebrews:13:24 @ Greet all your leaders and all the saints. Those who come from Italy send you greetings.

rsv@Hebrews:13:25 @ Grace be with all of you. Amen.

rsv@James:1:2 @ Count it all joy, my brethren, when you meet various trials,

rsv@James:1:3 @ for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

rsv@James:1:4 @ And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

rsv@James:1:5 @ If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives to all men generously and without reproaching, and it will be given him.

rsv@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

rsv@James:1:11 @ For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.

rsv@James:1:13 @ Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted with evil and he himself tempts no one;

rsv@James:1:15 @ Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin; and sin when it is full-grown brings forth death.

rsv@James:1:17 @ Every good endowment and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.

rsv@James:1:18 @ Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.

rsv@James:1:21 @ Therefore put away all filthiness and rank growth of wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

rsv@James:1:27 @ Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.

rsv@James:2:1 @ My brethren, show no partiality as you hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory.

rsv@James:2:2 @ For if a man with gold rings and in fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in,

rsv@James:2:3 @ and you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, "Have a seat here, please," while you say to the poor man, "Stand there," or, "Sit at my feet,"

rsv@James:2:4 @ have you not made distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

rsv@James:2:5 @ Listen, my beloved brethren. Has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to those who love him?

rsv@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Is it not the rich who oppress you, is it not they who drag you into court?

rsv@James:2:7 @ Is it not they who blaspheme that honorable name which was invoked over you?

rsv@James:2:9 @ But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

rsv@James:2:10 @ For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it.

rsv@James:2:11 @ For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," said also, "Do not kill." If you do not commit adultery but do kill, you have become a transgressor of the law.

rsv@James:2:13 @ For judgment is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy; yet mercy triumphs over judgment.

rsv@James:2:14 @ What does it profit, my brethren, if a man says he has faith but has not works? Can his faith save him?

rsv@James:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled," without giving them the things needed for the body, what does it profit?

rsv@James:2:17 @ So faith by itself, if it has no works, is dead.

rsv@James:2:18 @ But some one will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith apart from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith.

rsv@James:2:20 @ Do you want to be shown, you shallow man, that faith apart from works is barren?

rsv@James:2:22 @ You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by works,

rsv@James:2:23 @ and the scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness"; and he was called the friend of God.

rsv@James:2:24 @ You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.

rsv@James:2:26 @ For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so faith apart from works is dead.

rsv@James:3:1 @ Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, for you know that we who teach shall be judged with greater strictness.

rsv@James:3:3 @ If we put bits into the mouths of horses that they may obey us, we guide their whole bodies.

rsv@James:3:5 @ So the tongue is a little member and boasts of great things. How great a forest is set ablaze by a small fire!

rsv@James:3:9 @ With it we bless the Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who are made in the likeness of God.

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:3:15 @ This wisdom is not such as comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, devilish.

rsv@James:3:16 @ For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice.

rsv@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, without uncertainty or insincerity.

rsv@James:4:1 @ What causes wars, and what causes fightings among you? Is it not your passions that are at war in your members?

rsv@James:4:3 @ You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions.

rsv@James:4:4 @ Unfaithful creatures! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

rsv@James:4:5 @ Or do you suppose it is in vain that the scripture says, "He yearns jealously over the spirit which he has made to dwell in us"?

rsv@James:4:6 @ But he gives more grace; therefore it says, "God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

rsv@James:4:7 @ Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

rsv@James:4:14 @ whereas you do not know about tomorrow. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.

rsv@James:4:16 @ As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.

rsv@James:4:17 @ Whoever knows what is right to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.

rsv@James:5:7 @ Be patient, therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it until it receives the early and the late rain.

rsv@James:5:12 @ But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath, but let your yes be yes and your no be no, that you may not fall under condemnation.

rsv@James:5:14 @ Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;

rsv@James:5:15 @ and the prayer of faith will save the sick man, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

rsv@James:5:16 @ Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects.

rsv@James:5:17 @ Eli'jah was a man of like nature with ourselves and he prayed fervently that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth.

rsv@James:5:18 @ Then he prayed again and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth its fruit.

rsv@James:5:20 @ let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.

rsv@1Peter:1:1 @ Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To the exiles of the Dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappado'cia, Asia, and Bithyn'ia,

rsv@1Peter:1:2 @ chosen and destined by God the Father and sanctified by the Spirit for obedience to Jesus Christ and for sprinkling with his blood: May grace and peace be multiplied to you.

rsv@1Peter:1:4 @ and to an inheritance which is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you,

rsv@1Peter:1:5 @ who by God's power are guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

rsv@1Peter:1:6 @ In this you rejoice, though now for a little while you may have to suffer various trials,

rsv@1Peter:1:7 @ so that the genuineness of your faith, more precious than gold which though perishable is tested by fire, may redound to praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Peter:1:8 @ Without having seen him you love him; though you do not now see him you believe in him and rejoice with unutterable and exalted joy.

rsv@1Peter:1:9 @ As the outcome of your faith you obtain the salvation of your souls.

rsv@1Peter:1:11 @ they inquired what person or time was indicated by the Spirit of Christ within them when predicting the sufferings of Christ and the subsequent glory.

rsv@1Peter:1:12 @ It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you, in the things which have now been announced to you by those who preached the good news to you through the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, things into which angels long to look.

rsv@1Peter:1:16 @ since it is written, "You shall be holy, for I am holy."

rsv@1Peter:1:17 @ And if you invoke as Father him who judges each one impartially according to his deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your exile.

rsv@1Peter:1:18 @ You know that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your fathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold,

rsv@1Peter:1:19 @ but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.

rsv@1Peter:1:21 @ Through him you have confidence in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

rsv@1Peter:1:24 @ for "All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls,

rsv@1Peter:2:1 @ So put away all malice and all guile and insincerity and envy and all slander.

rsv@1Peter:2:2 @ Like newborn babes, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up to salvation;

rsv@1Peter:2:5 @ 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:2:6 @ For it stands in scripture: "Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious, and he who believes in him will not be put to shame."

rsv@1Peter:2:12 @ Maintain good conduct among the Gentiles, so that in case they speak against you as wrongdoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.

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

rsv@1Peter:2:15 @ For it is God's will that by doing right you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men.

rsv@1Peter:2:16 @ Live as free men, yet without using your freedom as a pretext for evil; but live as servants of God.

rsv@1Peter:2:18 @ Servants, be submissive to your masters with all respect, not only to the kind and gentle but also to the overbearing.

rsv@1Peter:2:20 @ For what credit is it, if when you do wrong and are beaten for it you take it patiently? But if when you do right and suffer for it you take it patiently, you have God's approval.

rsv@1Peter:2:22 @ He committed no sin; no guile was found on his lips.

rsv@1Peter:3:1 @ Likewise you wives, be submissive to your husbands, so that some, though they do not obey the word, may be won without a word by the behavior of their wives,

rsv@1Peter:3:3 @ Let not yours be the outward adorning with braiding of hair, decoration of gold, and wearing of fine clothing,

rsv@1Peter:3:4 @ 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:3:7 @ Likewise you husbands, live considerately with your wives, bestowing honor on the woman as the weaker sex, since you are joint heirs of the grace of life, in order that your prayers may not be hindered.

rsv@1Peter:3:8 @ Finally, all of you, have unity of spirit, sympathy, love of the brethren, a tender heart and a humble mind.

rsv@1Peter:3:11 @ let him turn away from evil and do right; let him seek peace and pursue it.

rsv@1Peter:3:15 @ but in your hearts reverence Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to make a defense to any one who calls you to account for the hope that is in you, yet do it with gentleness and reverence;

rsv@1Peter:3:17 @ For it is better to suffer for doing right, if that should be God's will, than for doing wrong.

rsv@1Peter:3:18 @ For Christ also died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit;

rsv@1Peter:3:19 @ in which he went and preached to the spirits in prison,

rsv@1Peter:3:20 @ who formerly did not obey, when God's patience waited in the days of Noah, during the building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were saved through water.

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

rsv@1Peter:4:1 @ Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same thought, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

rsv@1Peter:4:6 @ For this is why the gospel was preached even to the dead, that though judged in the flesh like men, they might live in the spirit like God.

rsv@1Peter:4:8 @ Above all hold unfailing your love for one another, since love covers a multitude of sins.

rsv@1Peter:4:9 @ Practice hospitality ungrudgingly to one another.

rsv@1Peter:4:10 @ As each has received a gift, employ it for one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace:

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:4:14 @ If you are reproached for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.

rsv@1Peter:4:17 @ For the time has come for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?

rsv@1Peter:4:19 @ Therefore let those who suffer according to God's will do right and entrust their souls to a faithful Creator.

rsv@1Peter:5:1 @ So I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ as well as a partaker in the glory that is to be revealed.

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@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experience of suffering is required of your brotherhood throughout the world.

rsv@1Peter:5:10 @ And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, establish, and strengthen you.

rsv@1Peter:5:12 @ By Silva'nus, a faithful brother as I regard him, I have written briefly to you, exhorting and declaring that this is the true grace of God; stand fast in it.

rsv@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with the kiss of love. Peace to all of you that are in Christ.

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:1:5 @ For this very reason make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge,

rsv@2Peter:1:6 @ and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness,

rsv@2Peter:1:7 @ and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love.

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:1:13 @ I think it right, as long as I am in this body, to arouse you by way of reminder,

rsv@2Peter:1:15 @ And I will see to it that after my departure you may be able at any time to recall these things.

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:1:18 @ we heard this voice borne from heaven, for we were with him on the holy mountain.

rsv@2Peter:1:21 @ because no prophecy ever came by the impulse of man, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.

rsv@2Peter:2:3 @ And in their greed they will exploit you with false words; from of old their condemnation has not been idle, and their destruction has not been asleep.

rsv@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare the angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of nether gloom to be kept until the judgment;

rsv@2Peter:2:5 @ if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven other persons, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly;

rsv@2Peter:2:6 @ if by turning the cities of Sodom and Gomor'rah to ashes he condemned them to extinction and made them an example to those who were to be ungodly;

rsv@2Peter:2:8 @ (for by what that righteous man saw and heard as he lived among them, he was vexed in his righteous soul day after day with their lawless deeds),

rsv@2Peter:2:10 @ and especially those who indulge in the lust of defiling passion and despise authority. Bold and wilful, they are not afraid to revile the glorious ones,

rsv@2Peter:2:12 @ But these, like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and killed, reviling in matters of which they are ignorant, will be destroyed in the same destruction with them,

rsv@2Peter:2:13 @ suffering wrong for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their dissipation, carousing with you.

rsv@2Peter:2:16 @ but was rebuked for his own transgression; a dumb ass spoke with human voice and restrained the prophet's madness.

rsv@2Peter:2:18 @ For, uttering loud boasts of folly, they entice with licentious passions of the flesh men who have barely escaped from those who live in error.

rsv@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.

rsv@2Peter:2:22 @ It has happened to them according to the true proverb, The dog turns back to his own vomit, and the sow is washed only to wallow in the mire.

rsv@2Peter:3:1 @ This is now the second letter that I have written to you, beloved, and in both of them I have aroused your sincere mind by way of reminder;

rsv@2Peter:3:3 @ First of all you must understand this, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own passions

rsv@2Peter:3:6 @ through which the world that then existed was deluged with water and perished.

rsv@2Peter:3:8 @ But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

rsv@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fire, and the earth and the works that are upon it will be burned up.

rsv@2Peter:3:12 @ waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be kindled and dissolved, and the elements will melt with fire!

rsv@2Peter:3:13 @ But according to his promise we wait for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.

rsv@2Peter:3:14 @ Therefore, beloved, since you wait for these, be zealous to be found by him without spot or blemish, and at peace.

rsv@2Peter:3:17 @ You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, beware lest you be carried away with the error of lawless men and lose your own stability.

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:1:1 @ That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon and touched with our hands, concerning the word of life--

rsv@1John:1:2 @ the life was made manifest, and we saw it, and testify to it, and proclaim to you the eternal life which was with the Father and was made manifest to us--

rsv@1John:1:3 @ 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:1:4 @ And we are writing this that our joy may be complete.

rsv@1John:1:6 @ If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not live according to the truth;

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:1:9 @ If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

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:2:7 @ Beloved, I am writing you no new commandment, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word which you have heard.

rsv@1John:2:8 @ Yet I am writing you a new commandment, which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining.

rsv@1John:2:10 @ He who loves his brother abides in the light, and in it there is no cause for stumbling.

rsv@1John:2:12 @ I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for his sake.

rsv@1John:2:13 @ I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, children, because you know the Father.

rsv@1John:2:14 @ I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

rsv@1John:2:17 @ And the world passes away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides for ever.

rsv@1John:2:18 @ Children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come; therefore we know that it is the last hour.

rsv@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out, that it might be plain that they all are not of us.

rsv@1John:2:21 @ I write to you, not because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and know that no lie is of the truth.

rsv@1John:2:26 @ I write this to you about those who would deceive you;

rsv@1John:2:27 @ but the anointing which you received from him abides in you, and you have no need that any one should teach you; as his anointing teaches you about everything, and is true, and is no lie, just as it has taught you, abide in him.

rsv@1John:2:28 @ And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming.

rsv@1John:3:1 @ See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.

rsv@1John:3:2 @ Beloved, we are God's children now; it does not yet appear what we shall be, but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

rsv@1John:3:4 @ Every one who commits sin is guilty of lawlessness; sin is lawlessness.

rsv@1John:3:6 @ No one who abides in him sins; no one who sins has either seen him or known him.

rsv@1John:3:7 @ Little children, let no one deceive you. He who does right is righteous, as he is righteous.

rsv@1John:3:8 @ He who commits sin is of the devil; for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil.

rsv@1John:3:9 @ No one born of God commits sin; for God's nature abides in him, and he cannot sin because he is born of God.

rsv@1John:3:10 @ By this it may be seen who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not do right is not of God, nor he who does not love his brother.

rsv@1John:3:18 @ Little children, let us not love in word or speech but in deed and in truth.

rsv@1John:3:24 @ All who keep his commandments abide in him, and he in them. And by this we know that he abides in us, by the Spirit which he has given us.

rsv@1John:4:1 @ Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are of God; for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

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:4:4 @ Little children, you are of God, and have overcome them; for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

rsv@1John:4:6 @ We are of God. Whoever knows God listens to us, and he who is not of God does not listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

rsv@1John:4:13 @ By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his own Spirit.

rsv@1John:4:17 @ In this is love perfected with us, that we may have confidence for the day of judgment, because as he is so are we in this world.

rsv@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and he who fears is not perfected in love.

rsv@1John:5:4 @ For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith.

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:5:7 @ And the Spirit is the witness, because the Spirit is the truth.

rsv@1John:5:8 @ There are three witnesses, the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree.

rsv@1John:5:9 @ If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for this is the testimony of God that he has borne witness to his Son.

rsv@1John:5:13 @ I write this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life.

rsv@1John:5:16 @ If any one sees his brother committing what is not a mortal sin, he will ask, and God will give him life for those whose sin is not mortal. There is sin which is mortal; I do not say that one is to pray for that.

rsv@1John:5:21 @ Little children, keep yourselves from idols.

rsv@2John:1:2 @ because of the truth which abides in us and will be with us for ever:

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:1:5 @ And now I beg you, lady, not as though I were writing you a new commandment, but the one we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.

rsv@2John:1:12 @ Though I have much to write to you, I would rather not use paper and ink, but I hope to come to see you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

rsv@3John:1:2 @ Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in health; I know that it is well with your soul.

rsv@3John:1:5 @ Beloved, it is a loyal thing you do when you render any service to the brethren, especially to strangers,

rsv@3John:1:6 @ who have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their journey as befits God's service.

rsv@3John:1:9 @ I have written something to the church; but Diot'rephes, who likes to put himself first, does not acknowledge my authority.

rsv@3John:1:10 @ So if I come, I will bring up what he is doing, prating against me with evil words. And not content with that, he refuses himself to welcome the brethren, and also stops those who want to welcome them and puts them out of the church.

rsv@3John:1:11 @ Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. He who does good is of God; he who does evil has not seen God.

rsv@3John:1:12 @ Deme'trius has testimony from every one, and from the truth itself; I testify to him too, and you know my testimony is true.

rsv@3John:1:13 @ I had much to write to you, but I would rather not write with pen and ink;

rsv@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, being very eager to write to you of our common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.

rsv@Jude:1:6 @ And the angels that did not keep their own position but left their proper dwelling have been kept by him in eternal chains in the nether gloom until the judgment of the great day;

rsv@Jude:1:7 @ just as Sodom and Gomor'rah and the surrounding cities, which likewise acted immorally and indulged in unnatural lust, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire.

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

rsv@Jude:1:9 @ But when the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, disputed about the body of Moses, he did not presume to pronounce a reviling judgment upon him, but said, "The Lord rebuke you."

rsv@Jude:1:12 @ These are blemishes on your love feasts, as they boldly carouse together, looking after themselves; waterless clouds, carried along by winds; fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead, uprooted;

rsv@Jude:1:14 @ It was of these also that Enoch in the seventh generation from Adam prophesied, saying, "Behold, the Lord came with his holy myriads,

rsv@Jude:1:15 @ to execute judgment on all, and to convict all the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness which they have committed in such an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against him."

rsv@Jude:1:19 @ It is these who set up divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit.

rsv@Jude:1:20 @ But you, beloved, build yourselves up on your most holy faith; pray in the Holy Spirit;

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:1:23 @ save some, by snatching them out of the fire; on some have mercy with fear, hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

rsv@Jude:1:24 @ Now to him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you without blemish before the presence of his glory with rejoicing,

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,
