nkjv@Hosea:4:13 @ They offer sacrifices on the mountaintops, And burn incense on the hills, Under oaks, poplars, and terebinths, Because their shade is good. Therefore your daughters commit harlotry, And your brides commit adultery.
nkjv@Hosea:4:14 @ "I will not punish your daughters when they commit harlotry, Nor your brides when they commit adultery; For the men themselves go apart with harlots, And offer sacrifices with a ritual harlot. Therefore people who do not understand will be trampled.

nkjv@Amos:3:4 @ Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey? Will a young lion cry out of his den, if he has caught nothing?
nkjv@Amos:3:5 @ Will a bird fall into a snare on the earth, where there is no trap for it? Will a snare spring up from the earth, if it has caught nothing at all?

nkjv@Amos:8:5 @ Saying: "When will the New Moon be past, That we may sell grain? And the Sabbath, That we may trade wheat? Making the ephah small and the shekel large, Falsifying the scales by deceit,

nkjv@Obadiah:1:5 @ "If thieves had come to you, If robbers by night-- Oh, how you will be cut off!-- Would they not have stolen till they had enough? If grape-gatherers had come to you, Would they not have left some gleanings?
nkjv@Jonah:1:14 @ Therefore they cried out to the LORD and said, "We pray, O LORD, please do not let us perish for this man's life, and do not charge us with innocent blood; for You, O LORD, have done as it pleased You."
nkjv@Jonah:1:16 @ Then the men feared the LORD exceedingly, and offered a sacrifice to the LORD and took vows.
nkjv@Jonah:2:6 @ I went down to the moorings of the mountains; The earth with its bars closed behind me forever; Yet You have brought up my life from the pit, O LORD, my God.

nkjv@Micah:1:13 @ O inhabitant of Lachish, Harness the chariot to the swift steeds (She was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion), For the transgressions of Israel were found in you.
nkjv@Micah:2:11 @ If a man should walk in a false spirit And speak a lie, saying, "I will prophesy to you of wine and drink,' Even he would be the prattler of this people.
nkjv@Micah:4:3 @ He shall judge between many peoples, And rebuke strong nations afar off; They shall beat their swords into plowshares, And their spears into pruning hooks; Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war anymore.

nkjv@Zechariah:5:7 @ Here is a lead disc lifted up, and this is a woman sitting inside the basket";
nkjv@Zechariah:5:9 @ Then I raised my eyes and looked, and there were two women, coming with the wind in their wings; for they had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between earth and heaven.
nkjv@Zechariah:6:10 @ "Receive the gift from the captives--from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have come from Babylon--and go the same day and enter the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah.

nkjv@Zechariah:13:3 @ It shall come to pass that if anyone still prophesies, then his father and mother who begot him will say to him, "You shall not live, because you have spoken lies in the name of the LORD.' And his father and mother who begot him shall thrust him through when he prophesies.
nkjv@Zechariah:14:2 @ For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem; The city shall be taken, The houses rifled, And the women ravished. Half of the city shall go into captivity, But the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

nkjv@Malachi:1:5 @ Your eyes shall see, And you shall say, "The LORD is magnified beyond the border of Israel.'
nkjv@Malachi:1:6 @ "A son honors his father, And a servant his master. If then I am the Father, Where is My honor? And if I am a Master, Where is My reverence? Says the LORD of hosts To you priests who despise My name. Yet you say, "In what way have we despised Your name?'
nkjv@Malachi:1:8 @ And when you offer the blind as a sacrifice, Is it not evil? And when you offer the lame and sick, Is it not evil? Offer it then to your governor! Would he be pleased with you? Would he accept you favorably?" Says the LORD of hosts.
nkjv@Malachi:1:14 @ "But cursed be the deceiver Who has in his flock a male, And takes a vow, But sacrifices to the Lord what is blemished-- For I am a great King," Says the LORD of hosts, "And My name is to be feared among the nations.

nkjv@Malachi:2:14 @ Yet you say, "For what reason?" Because the LORD has been witness Between you and the wife of your youth, With whom you have dealt treacherously; Yet she is your companion And your wife by covenant.
nkjv@Malachi:2:15 @ But did He not make them one, Having a remnant of the Spirit? And why one? He seeks godly offspring. Therefore take heed to your spirit, And let none deal treacherously with the wife of his youth.
nkjv@Malachi:3:3 @ He will sit as a refiner and a purifier of silver; He will purify the sons of Levi, And purge them as gold and silver, That they may offer to the LORD An offering in righteousness.

nkjv@Romans:11:17 @ And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree,

nkjv@Romans:11:21 @ For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.
nkjv@Romans:11:22 @ Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.
nkjv@Romans:11:23 @ And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
nkjv@Romans:11:24 @ For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
nkjv@Romans:11:29 @ For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
nkjv@Romans:12:1 @ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.
nkjv@Romans:12:6 @ Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith;

nkjv@Romans:12:20 @ Therefore "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he is thirsty, give him a drink; For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head."
nkjv@Romans:13:4 @ For he is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.
nkjv@Romans:13:9 @ For the commandments, "You shall not commit adultery," "You shall not murder," "You shall not steal," "You shall not bear false witness," "You shall not covet," and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
nkjv@Romans:13:13 @ Let us walk properly, as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy.
nkjv@Romans:14:8 @ For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.
nkjv@Romans:14:15 @ Yet if your brother is grieved because of your food, you are no longer walking in love. Do not destroy with your food the one for whom Christ died.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:7 @ so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,
nkjv@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
nkjv@1Corinthians:1:23 @ but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness,
nkjv@1Corinthians:1:30 @ But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God--and righteousness and sanctification and redemption--
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:2 @ For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
nkjv@1Corinthians:2:8 @ which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
nkjv@1Corinthians:3:3 @ for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:22 @ whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come--all are yours.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who makes you differ from another? And what do you have that you did not receive? Now if you did indeed receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?
nkjv@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord wills, and I will know, not the word of those who are puffed up, but the power.
nkjv@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles--that a man has his father's wife!
nkjv@1Corinthians:5:7 @ Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us.
nkjv@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world will be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
nkjv@1Corinthians:6:3 @ Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?
nkjv@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If then you have judgments concerning things pertaining to this life, do you appoint those who are least esteemed by the church to judge?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:20 @ For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:2 @ Nevertheless, because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:3 @ Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:4 @ The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:7 @ For I wish that all men were even as I myself. But each one has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But I say to the unmarried and to the widows: It is good for them if they remain even as I am;
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:9 @ but if they cannot exercise self-control, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:10 @ Now to the married I command, yet not I but the Lord: A wife is not to depart from her husband.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:11 @ But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to divorce his wife.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:12 @ But to the rest I, not the Lord, say: If any brother has a wife who does not believe, and she is willing to live with him, let him not divorce her.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:13 @ And a woman who has a husband who does not believe, if he is willing to live with her, let her not divorce him.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband; otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbeliever departs, let him depart; a brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases. But God has called us to peace.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:16 @ For how do you know, O wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, O husband, whether you will save your wife?
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you called while a slave? Do not be concerned about it; but if you can be made free, rather use it.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:27 @ Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be loosed. Are you loosed from a wife? Do not seek a wife.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:28 @ But even if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. Nevertheless such will have trouble in the flesh, but I would spare you.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:33 @ But he who is married cares about the things of the world--how he may please his wife.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:34 @ There is a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares about the things of the world--how she may please her husband.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:36 @ But if any man thinks he is behaving improperly toward his virgin, if she is past the flower of youth, and thus it must be, let him do what he wishes. He does not sin; let them marry.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:39 @ A wife is bound by law as long as her husband lives; but if her husband dies, she is at liberty to be married to whom she wishes, only in the Lord.
nkjv@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But she is happier if she remains as she is, according to my judgment--and I think I also have the Spirit of God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now concerning things offered to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:2 @ And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:3 @ But if anyone loves God, this one is known by Him.
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords),
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But food does not commend us to God; for neither if we eat are we the better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse.
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating in an idol's temple, will not the conscience of him who is weak be emboldened to eat those things offered to idols?
nkjv@1Corinthians:8:13 @ Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never again eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:2 @ If I am not an apostle to others, yet doubtless I am to you. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:5 @ Do we have no right to take along a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:11 @ If we have sown spiritual things for you, is it a great thing if we reap your material things?
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others are partakers of this right over you, are we not even more? Nevertheless we have not used this right, but endure all things lest we hinder the gospel of Christ.
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:16 @ For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of, for necessity is laid upon me; yes, woe is me if I do not preach the gospel!
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:17 @ For if I do this willingly, I have a reward; but if against my will, I have been entrusted with a stewardship.
nkjv@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:18 @ Observe Israel after the flesh: Are not those who eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:20 @ Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons.
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:23 @ All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify.
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If any of those who do not believe invites you to dinner, and you desire to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no question for conscience' sake.
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:28 @ But if anyone says to you, "This was offered to idols," do not eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for conscience' sake; for "the earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness."
nkjv@1Corinthians:10:30 @ But if I partake with thanks, why am I evil spoken of for the food over which I give thanks?
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:14 @ Does not even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:15 @ But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:16 @ But if anyone seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor do the churches of God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:31 @ For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged.
nkjv@1Corinthians:11:34 @ But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest you come together for judgment. And the rest I will set in order when I come.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:1 @ Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant:
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:4 @ There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:5 @ There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:7 @ But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:9 @ to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:10 @ to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:17 @ If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:19 @ And if they were all one member, where would the body be?
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:26 @ And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:30 @ Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
nkjv@1Corinthians:12:31 @ But earnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way.
nkjv@1Corinthians:13:2 @ And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that you prophesied; for he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless indeed he interprets, that the church may receive edification.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you unless I speak to you either by revelation, by knowledge, by prophesying, or by teaching?
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:7 @ Even things without life, whether flute or harp, when they make a sound, unless they make a distinction in the sounds, how will it be known what is piped or played?
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:8 @ For if the trumpet makes an uncertain sound, who will prepare for battle?
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:10 @ There are, it may be, so many kinds of languages in the world, and none of them is without significance.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:11 @ Therefore, if I do not know the meaning of the language, I shall be a foreigner to him who speaks, and he who speaks will be a foreigner to me.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:12 @ Even so you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the edification of the church that you seek to excel.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:14 @ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how will he who occupies the place of the uninformed say "Amen" at your giving of thanks, since he does not understand what you say?
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:17 @ For you indeed give thanks well, but the other is not edified.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Therefore if the whole church comes together in one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those who are uninformed or unbelievers, will they not say that you are out of your mind?
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or an uninformed person comes in, he is convinced by all, he is convicted by all.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ How is it then, brethren? Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If anyone speaks in a tongue, let there be two or at the most three, each in turn, and let one interpret.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in church, and let him speak to himself and to God.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:30 @ But if anything is revealed to another who sits by, let the first keep silent.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:35 @ And if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is shameful for women to speak in church.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things which I write to you are the commandments of the Lord.
nkjv@1Corinthians:14:38 @ But if anyone is ignorant, let him be ignorant.
nkjv@1Corinthians:15:2 @ by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you--unless you believed in vain.
nkjv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ Now if Christ is preached that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
nkjv@1Corinthians:15:13 @ But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen.
nkjv@1Corinthians:15:14 @ And if Christ is not risen, then our preaching is empty and your faith is also empty.
nkjv@1Corinthians:15:15 @ Yes, and we are found false witnesses of God, because we have testified of God that He raised up Christ, whom He did not raise up--if in fact the dead do not rise.
nkjv@1Corinthians:15:16 @ For if the dead do not rise, then Christ is not risen.
nkjv@1Corinthians:15:17 @ And if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins!
