bwe@Matthew:1:1 @ Here are the names of the people in the family line from which Jesus Christ came. He came from Davids family. He came from Abrahams family.

bwe@Matthew:1:2 @ Jesus family line: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Judah, Perez (his mother was Tamar), Zezron, Ram, Amminadab, Nahshon, Salmon, Boaz (his mother was Rahab), Obed (his mother was Ruth), Jesse, David the king, Solomon (whose mother was Uriahs wife), Rehoboam, Abijah, Asa, Jehoshaphat, Joram, Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah, Manasseh, Amon, Josiah, Jeconiah and his brothers (at the time the people of Israel were carried away to Babylon), Shealtiel, Zerubbabel, Abiud, Eliakim, Azor, Zadok, Achim, Eliud, Eleazor, Matthan, Jacob and Joseph who was the husband of Mary. Mary was the mother of Jesus, who is called the Christ.

bwe@Matthew:1:17 @ There were fourteen families from Abraham to David. There were fourteen families from David to the time the people were taken to Babylon. And there were fourteen families after that until Christ was born.

bwe@Matthew:1:19 @ Joseph, the man she was to marry, was a good man. He did not want her to be made ashamed. So he planned to leave her without telling people about it.

bwe@Matthew:1:21 @ She will have a baby son. Name him Jesus, because he will save his people from the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Matthew:2:3 @ When King Herod heard this, he was very troubled. All the people in Jerusalem were troubled also.

bwe@Matthew:2:6 @ "Bethlehem in the country of Judah, you are not the least among the leaders in Judah. A leader will come from you who will rule over my people Israel."

bwe@Matthew:3:5 @ People went to him from Jerusalem, from all of Judea, and from all the country near the Jordan River.

bwe@Matthew:4:3 @ The one who tries to make people do wrong came and said to him, If you are Gods Son, tell these stones to be changed into bread.

bwe@Matthew:4:15 @ He talked about, The country of Zebulun and the country of Naphtali, the road by the sea, the land on the other side of the Jordan River, Galilee where the people are not Jews.

bwe@Matthew:4:16 @ And he said, The people who lived in darkness have seen a great Light. Light has come to those who lived in a land covered by the dark shadow of death.

bwe@Matthew:4:17 @ From then on, Jesus began to tell Gods word to the people. He said, Stop your wrong ways and turn back to God! The kingdom of heaven is here!

bwe@Matthew:4:19 @ Jesus said to them, Come with me. The work I will give you will be to catch people.

bwe@Matthew:4:23 @ Jesus went all around through Galilee. He taught people in their meeting houses and told them the good news about the kingdom of heaven. He healed all the sick and weak people.

bwe@Matthew:4:24 @ The people in all the country of Syria heard about him. They brought all who were sick in any way, or had bad spirits in them, and those who could not walk or use their hands. Jesus healed them.

bwe@Matthew:4:25 @ Many people went with him. They came from Galilee, the Ten Towns, Jerusalem, Judea, and from the other side of the Jordan river.

bwe@Matthew:5:1 @ When Jesus saw the many people, he went up on a hill. He sat down and his disciples came to him.

bwe@Matthew:5:2 @ He began to teach the people.

bwe@Matthew:5:9 @ God makes happy those who make peace between people. They will be called Gods sons.

bwe@Matthew:5:11 @ God makes you happy when people say wrong things about you, when they trouble you, and when they say all kinds of lies about you. God makes you happy when it is for my sake.

bwe@Matthew:5:12 @ Be happy and glad because God will be good to you in heaven. In the same way people troubled the prophets before your time.

bwe@Matthew:5:15 @ So also with a lamp. People do not light a lamp and put it under a basket. But they put it on the place for a lamp. Then all the people in the house can see its light.

bwe@Matthew:5:16 @ So, let your light shine to all people. Then they will see the good things you do. And they will praise your Father in heaven.

bwe@Matthew:5:19 @ So anyone who does not obey one of the smallest laws, and teaches other people not to obey it, will have the smallest part in the kingdom of heaven. But any one who obeys and teaches the law, will have a big part in the kingdom of heaven.

bwe@Matthew:5:45 @ In that way you will be sons of your Father in heaven. He makes his sun shine on both wrong and good people. He lets the rain fall on people who do right and on people who do wrong.

bwe@Matthew:5:47 @ Do you speak to your brothers only? If so, you are not doing any better than other people. Even people who do not believe in God do that.

bwe@Matthew:6:1 @ Do not do good things so that people will see you do them. If you do, you will get no reward from your Father in heaven.

bwe@Matthew:6:2 @ So when you give money to poor people, do not send men in front of you to blow trumpets or horns. Some people do this in the meeting houses and on the streets so that people will praise them. They are not true to themselves. I tell you the truth. They have their pay already.

bwe@Matthew:6:3 @ But when you give money to poor people, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.

bwe@Matthew:6:5 @ When you talk to God, do not be like people who are not true to themselves. They like to stand and talk to God in the meeting houses and at the street corners, so that people will see them. I tell you the truth. They have their reward already.

bwe@Matthew:6:7 @ And when you talk to God, do not say words that mean nothing, over and over again. People who do not believe in God do that. They think their god will hear them because they say many words.

bwe@Matthew:6:16 @ When you are fasting <FI>not eating food for a time<Fi>, do not look sad. That is what people do who are not true to themselves. They look sad to show people they are fasting. I tell you the truth. They have their reward already.

bwe@Matthew:6:18 @ Then people will not see that you are fasting. But your Father sees secret things, and he will reward you.

bwe@Matthew:6:19 @ Do not keep many things for yourself on earth. Insects and rust will spoil them. People will get in and steal them.

bwe@Matthew:6:20 @ But keep things for yourself in heaven. Insects and rust will not spoil them there. People will not get in and steal them.

bwe@Matthew:6:32 @ It is the people who do not believe in God who work for all these things. Your Father in heaven knows that you need them all.

bwe@Matthew:7:12 @ Do to other people what you want them to do to you. That is what the law and the writings of the prophets say.

bwe@Matthew:7:13 @ Go in by the small gate. The gate is big and the road is wide that goes to death. Many people go that way.

bwe@Matthew:7:14 @ The gate is small and the road is not wide that goes to life. Not many people find it.

bwe@Matthew:7:16 @ You will know them by the things they do. People do not pick fruit like grapes from thistles. They do not pick fruit like figs from thorn trees.

bwe@Matthew:7:21 @ Some people say to me, "Lord, Lord". But not all who say that will go into the kingdom of heaven. Only those who do what my Father in heaven wants, will go in.

bwe@Matthew:7:22 @ Many people will say to me on that day, "Lord, Lord, did we not speak in your name? Did we not drive bad spirits out of people in your name? Did we not do big works in your name?"

bwe@Matthew:7:28 @ Jesus finished saying all these things. The people were surprised at his teaching.

bwe@Matthew:8:1 @ When Jesus came down from the hill, many people followed him.

bwe@Matthew:8:4 @ Jesus said to him, Do not tell anyone about this. But go and let the priest look at you. Moses gave a law about the sacrifice you must give when you are healed. Give it, to prove to people you are healed.

bwe@Matthew:8:10 @ Jesus was surprised when he heard this. He said to the people who followed him, I tell you the truth. I have not found any Jew who believes as this man does.

bwe@Matthew:8:11 @ I tell you, many people will come from the east and from the west. They will sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.

bwe@Matthew:8:16 @ That evening, many people who had bad spirits were brought to Jesus. He spoke to the bad spirits and drove them out. And he healed all the people who were sick.

bwe@Matthew:8:18 @ Jesus saw many people around him. So he said, Let us cross over to the other side of the sea.

bwe@Matthew:8:22 @ But Jesus said to him, Come with me. Let those who are dead bury their own dead people.

bwe@Matthew:8:28 @ Jesus came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarene people. There were graves in that place. Two men came from among the graves to meet him. They had bad spirits in them. They were so bad and strong that people feared to pass that way.

bwe@Matthew:8:34 @ All the people in the town came out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged him to go away out of their country

bwe@Matthew:9:6 @ I want you to know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive wrong things people have done. So he said to the sick man, Get up. Make up your bed and go home.

bwe@Matthew:9:8 @ Many people saw this and were much surprised. They praised God who had given such power to men.

bwe@Matthew:9:9 @ Jesus went on from there. He saw a man named Matthew. He was sitting at the place where people came to pay taxes. Jesus said to him, Come with me. Matthew stood up and went with him.

bwe@Matthew:9:10 @ Jesus was eating in a house. Many tax collectors and bad people came in. They sat down to eat with Jesus and his disciples.

bwe@Matthew:9:11 @ The Pharisees saw this. They said to his disciples, Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and bad people?

bwe@Matthew:9:12 @ Jesus heard it. He said to them, People who are well do not need a doctor. But sick people need him.

bwe@Matthew:9:13 @ Go and learn what this means: "I want you to be kind. I do not want a sacrifice." I did not come to call good people. I came to call bad people to stop doing wrong things.

bwe@Matthew:9:15 @ Jesus answered, The people at a wedding cannot be sad while the man who is married is with them. But the time will come when he will be taken away from them. Then they will not eat.

bwe@Matthew:9:17 @ People do not put new wine into old wine skins. If they do, the old skins break. The wine is lost and the skins are spoiled. New wine is put into new skins. And so they are both saved.

bwe@Matthew:9:23 @ When Jesus came to the rulers house, he saw the music players and people making a noise.

bwe@Matthew:9:25 @ The people were told to go outside. When they were out, he went in and took the girls hand. The girl got up.

bwe@Matthew:9:26 @ People in all that part of the country heard about it.

bwe@Matthew:9:32 @ As they were leaving, people brought a man to Jesus. This man could not talk He had a bad spirit in him.

bwe@Matthew:9:33 @ Jesus drove the bad spirit out of the man. Then he could talk. The people were very much surprised. They said, Nothing like this has ever been seen in the country of Israel.

bwe@Matthew:9:34 @ But the Pharisees said, He drives bad spirits out of people by the power of the chief of bad spirits.

bwe@Matthew:9:35 @ Jesus went around to all the cities and towns. He taught people in their meeting houses and told them the good news of the kingdom of heaven. He healed all the sick and weak people.

bwe@Matthew:9:36 @ He saw the many people and was sorry for them. They were troubled and they could not help themselves. They were like sheep with no one to care for them.

bwe@Matthew:9:37 @ Then Jesus said to his disciples, The harvest is much. But there are not many people to gather it.

bwe@Matthew:9:38 @ Talk to the Lord of this harvest, and ask him to send out people to his harvest.

bwe@Matthew:10:1 @ Jesus called his twelve disciples to him. He gave them power over bad spirits so they could drive them out of people. He gave them power to heal people who were sick or weak in any way.

bwe@Matthew:10:2 @ The names of the twelve apostles are: Simon, whose other name was Peter, and his brother Andrew, James and his brother John, the sons of Zebedee, Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax collector, James, the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose other name was Thaddaeus, Simon, the freedom fighter, and Judas Iscariot, the one who gave Jesus over to people who hated him.

bwe@Matthew:10:5 @ Jesus sent out these twelve. He said to them, Do not go to the people who are not Jews. Do not go to any town of the Samaritan people.

bwe@Matthew:10:6 @ But go to the people of Israel. They are like lost sheep.

bwe@Matthew:10:7 @ As you go, tell people that the kingdom of heaven is here.

bwe@Matthew:10:8 @ Heal sick people. Bring dead people to life. Heal people who have leprosy. Drive bad spirits out of people You got it free, so give it free to others

bwe@Matthew:10:14 @ In some places people will not take you in, or listen to what you say. So when you leave that house or town, shake the dust off your feet.

bwe@Matthew:10:15 @ I tell you the truth. On the day when people are judged, the people from that city will be punished harder than the people from the country of Sodom and Gomorrah.

bwe@Matthew:10:16 @ I am sending you out amongst people. You will be like sheep amongst bad animals like wolves. So be wise like snakes, and harmless like doves.

bwe@Matthew:10:26 @ So do not be afraid of people. Everything that is hidden will be seen. Everything that is hidden will be known.

bwe@Matthew:10:28 @ Do not fear people who can kill the body. They cannot kill the spirit. But fear the one who can destroy both spirit and body in hell.

bwe@Matthew:10:32 @ If anyone tells people that he knows me, I will also tell the Father in heaven that I know him.

bwe@Matthew:10:33 @ But anyone who tells people he does not know me, I will also tell my Father in heaven that I do not know him.

bwe@Matthew:10:36 @ A man will have people in his own family who make trouble for him.

bwe@Matthew:11:1 @ When Jesus finished telling his twelve disciples what to do, he left that place. He went to teach and tell Gods word to people in the towns around there.

bwe@Matthew:11:5 @ Blind people see. Lame people walk. People with leprosy are healed. People who could not hear, can hear. Dead people are made alive. Poor people hear the good news.

bwe@Matthew:11:7 @ When Johns disciples went away, Jesus began to talk to people about John. He said, What did you go out into the wilderness to see? Did you go out to see a tall grass moved by the wind?

bwe@Matthew:11:8 @ What did you go out to see? A man wearing fine clothes? People who wear fine clothes live in kings houses.

bwe@Matthew:11:12 @ From the time of John until now, people try hard to break into the kingdom of heaven. And strong people take hold of it.

bwe@Matthew:11:16 @ What shall I say that the people of today are like? They are like children who sit in the market. They call to the other children.

bwe@Matthew:11:18 @ John came. He does not eat or drink much. People say, "He has a bad spirit in him!"

bwe@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of Man came. He eats and drinks. People say, "This man eats and drinks too much! He is a friend with tax collectors and bad people!" But a man is proved to be wise by what he has done.

bwe@Matthew:11:20 @ Then Jesus began to talk about the towns where he had done most of his big works. He said hard things about the people, because they did not stop their wrong ways and turn back to God.

bwe@Matthew:11:21 @ He said, Chorazin! You will have trouble! Bethsaida! You will have trouble! If the big works I did in you had been done in the cities of Tyre and Sidon, the people there would have stopped their wrong ways long ago. They would wear the clothes people wear to show they are sad. They would sit in ashes.

bwe@Matthew:11:22 @ But I tell you, on the day when people are judged, you will be punished harder than the people from the cities of Tyre and Sidon.

bwe@Matthew:11:24 @ But I tell you, on the day when people are judged you will be punished harder than the people from Sodom.

bwe@Matthew:11:25 @ Then Jesus said, Father, you are Lord of heaven and earth. I thank you because you have hidden these things from people who are wise and know many things. But you have shown them to people who are like children.

bwe@Matthew:12:10 @ There was a man whose hand was thin and weak. The people asked Jesus, Is it right to heal a man on the Sabbath day? They wanted to find something wrong about Jesus.

bwe@Matthew:12:15 @ Jesus knew about their plan, so he went away from there. Many people followed him and he healed them all.

bwe@Matthew:12:18 @ He said, This is my servant. I have chosen him. I love him. I am very pleased with him. I will put my Spirit on him. He will judge the people who are not Jews.

bwe@Matthew:12:22 @ Then the people brought a man to Jesus. The man had a bad spirit in him. He was blind and could not talk. Jesus healed him. Then the man could talk and see.

bwe@Matthew:12:23 @ All the people were surprised. They said, Is he Davids son?

bwe@Matthew:12:27 @ If I drive out bad spirits by Beelzebub, how do your own people drive them out? Let them judge you.

bwe@Matthew:12:31 @ That is why I tell you this. All wrong things that people do or say, will be forgiven. But people who say wrong things against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven.

bwe@Matthew:12:33 @ Either make a tree good and its fruit good, or make a tree bad and its fruit bad. People know what kind of tree it is by the fruit on it.

bwe@Matthew:12:36 @ I tell you this. On the day when people are judged, they will pay for every empty word they have said.

bwe@Matthew:12:39 @ But Jesus answered them, The people today are bad. They have gone away from God. They want a sign. No sign will be given them but the sign of the prophet Jonah.

bwe@Matthew:12:41 @ When people are judged, the men of the city of Nineveh will stand up and speak against the people of today. The people of Nineveh stopped their wrong ways when Jonah told them Gods word. And the one who is here is greater than Jonah.

bwe@Matthew:12:42 @ When people are judged, the Queen of the South will stand up and speak against the people of today. She came a long way to hear the wise talk of Solomon. And the one who is here is greater than Solomon.

bwe@Matthew:12:45 @ Then he goes and brings seven other spirits with him. They are worse than he is. They go in and live there. Now the man is worse than he was at first. That is how it will be for the wrong people of today.

bwe@Matthew:12:46 @ While Jesus was still talking to the people, his mother and brothers stood outside. They wanted to talk to him.

bwe@Matthew:12:49 @ He pointed to his disciples and said, These people are my mother and my brothers!

bwe@Matthew:13:2 @ Many people came to where he was. So he got into a boat and sat down. All the people stood on the land by the water.

bwe@Matthew:13:3 @ He taught the people many things by telling them stories. He said, Listen, a man went out to sow some seed.

bwe@Matthew:13:10 @ The disciples came to Jesus and asked him, Why do you tell the people these stories?

bwe@Matthew:13:15 @ The hearts of these people have no feeling. They do not hear well with their ears. And they have shut their eyes. They do not want to see with their eyes. They do not want to hear with their ears. They do not want to understand in their hearts. They do not want to turn to me. If they did turn, I would heal them."

bwe@Matthew:13:19 @ People listen to the message about the kingdom of heaven. If anyone does not understand it, the devil comes along and takes the message out of his heart. That person is like the seed which fell on the road.

bwe@Matthew:13:23 @ Some seed fell on good ground. That is like a person who hears the message and understands it. Much good comes from it. Some people are like the seed that gave a hundred more seeds. Some people are like the seed that gave sixty. Some people are like the seed that gave thirty.

bwe@Matthew:13:24 @ Jesus told the people another story. He said, The kingdom of heaven is like this. A man sowed good seed in his field.

bwe@Matthew:13:25 @ While people were sleeping, a bad man came and sowed weeds among the good seed. Then he went away.

bwe@Matthew:13:31 @ Jesus told the people another story. He said, The kingdom of heaven is like this. A man took a mustard seed and planted it in his field.

bwe@Matthew:13:34 @ Jesus told the people all these things in stories. He did not tell them anything without a story.

bwe@Matthew:13:36 @ Then Jesus left the people and went into the house. His disciples came to him. They said, Tell us the meaning of the story about the weeds in the field.

bwe@Matthew:13:38 @ The field is the world. The good seed means the people who belong to the kingdom. The weeds mean those who belong to the bad one.

bwe@Matthew:13:41 @ The Son of Man will send his angels. They will gather everything that is bad and the people who do bad things. They will take them out of his kingdom.

bwe@Matthew:13:43 @ Then the people who are right with God will shine like the sun in their Fathers kingdom. Everyone who has ears, listen.

bwe@Matthew:13:49 @ That is the way it will be at the end of the world. The angels will come and take the bad people away from the good people.

bwe@Matthew:13:50 @ They will put the bad people into the never-ending hell fire. There they will cry and make a noise with their teeth.

bwe@Matthew:13:54 @ He went back to his home town and he taught people in their meeting house. They were very much surprised and said, Where did he learn all this? Where did he get the power to do these big works?

bwe@Matthew:13:57 @ They did not understand Jesus. Jesus said to them, Other people honour a man who is a prophet. But the people in his own country and home do not honour him.

bwe@Matthew:13:58 @ Jesus could not do many big works in that place because the people did not believe in him.

bwe@Matthew:14:5 @ Herod wanted to kill John, but he was afraid of the people. They thought John was a prophet, a man of God.

bwe@Matthew:14:6 @ On Herods birthday, the daughter of Herodias danced for the people who were there. She pleased Herod.

bwe@Matthew:14:9 @ The king was very sorry to do this. But he had made a promise. And all the people who were there had heard him promise. So he gave orders to do it.

bwe@Matthew:14:13 @ When Jesus heard this, he went away from there in a boat. He went to a lonely place by himself. The people heard that he went away and they followed him. They walked from the towns around there.

bwe@Matthew:14:14 @ When Jesus got out of the boat, he saw many people. He was sorry for them and he healed those who were sick.

bwe@Matthew:14:15 @ In the evening the disciples came to him. They said, This is a lonely place. And the time is late. Send these people away so they can go to the farms and villages to buy food for themselves.

bwe@Matthew:14:19 @ Then Jesus told the people to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves of bread and the two fish. He looked up to heaven and thanked God for them. Then he broke the bread and gave it to the disciples. The disciples gave it to the people.

bwe@Matthew:14:22 @ Then Jesus told the disciples, You get into the boat right away and go ahead of me to the other side of the sea. And I will send these people away.

bwe@Matthew:14:35 @ The men there knew him and sent word to the people in all the country around. They brought all the sick people to him.

bwe@Matthew:14:36 @ They begged Jesus to let them touch his clothes. And all the people who touched him were healed.

bwe@Matthew:15:8 @ "These people respect me with their mouth but their heart is far from me.

bwe@Matthew:15:10 @ Jesus called the people to him. He said to them, Listen to me and understand what I say.

bwe@Matthew:15:19 @ Here is what comes from the heart: wrong thoughts, killing people, all kinds of adultery, stealing, lying, and saying wrong things about people.

bwe@Matthew:15:21 @ Jesus left that place and went to the country of Tyre and Sidon. 22A woman of the people of Canaan was in that country. She called out, Sir, you are the Son of David. Help me! My daughter is being troubled very much by a bad spirit.

bwe@Matthew:15:23 @ He said, I was sent only to the people of Israel. They are like lost sheep.

bwe@Matthew:15:29 @ Many people came to him. They brought sick people with them. Some were lame. Some were hurt. Some were blind. Some could not talk. And there were many others. They laid them down in front of Jesus. And he healed them.

bwe@Matthew:15:30 @ The people were surprised. They saw that people who had not been able to talk were talking. They saw that people who were hurt were made well. They saw that lame people were walking. They saw that blind people could see. And they praised the God of Israel.

bwe@Matthew:15:31 @ Jesus called his disciples to him. He said, I share the suffering of the people. They have been with me for three days and they have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry. If they go away hungry, they will get weak and fall on the way.

bwe@Matthew:15:32 @ The disciples said to him, Where can we get enough food in this lonely place to feed so many people?

bwe@Matthew:15:34 @ He told the people to sit down on the ground.

bwe@Matthew:15:35 @ Then he took the seven loaves of bread and the fish. He thanked God for them. Then he broke the bread and gave it to the disciples. The disciples gave it to the people.

bwe@Matthew:15:37 @ The number of people who ate was about four thousand men, besides some women and children.

bwe@Matthew:15:38 @ Jesus sent the people away. Then he got in the boat and went to the country around Magadan.

bwe@Matthew:16:4 @ People today are wrong. They have gone away from God. They want a sign. No sign will be given them but the sign of Jonah. Then Jesus went away and left them.

bwe@Matthew:16:9 @ Do you not yet understand? When there were five thousand people, there were only five loaves of bread. Do you not remember how many baskets full of pieces you gathered up?

bwe@Matthew:16:10 @ When there were four thousand people, there were only seven loaves. Do you not remember how many baskets full of pieces you gathered up?

bwe@Matthew:16:13 @ Jesus went to the country of Caesarea Philippi. He asked his disciples, I am the Son of Man. Whom do people say I am?

bwe@Matthew:16:14 @ They answered, Some people say you are John the Baptizer. Others say you are Elijah. And others say you are Jeremiah or one of the prophets.

bwe@Matthew:16:23 @ But Jesus turned to Peter and said, Get away from me Satan! You are trying to make me do wrong. You are not thinking the way God thinks, but the way people think.

bwe@Matthew:16:28 @ I tell you the truth. Some people are standing here who will not die before they see the Son of Man come in his kingdom.

bwe@Matthew:17:12 @ I tell you that Elijah has come already. The people did not know him. And they did to him just what they wanted to do. So also the Son of Man will be troubled by them.

bwe@Matthew:17:14 @ They came to the people. A man came and kneeled in front of Jesus.

bwe@Matthew:17:17 @ Jesus said, You people today do not believe. You have turned away from God. How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.

bwe@Matthew:17:21 @ But this kind of bad spirit does not come out of a person unless people ask God and fast <FI>do not eat food for a time<Fi>.

bwe@Matthew:17:25 @ Peter said, Yes, he does. When he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him about it first. He said, Simon, what do you think? From whom do kings on earth take taxes? Do they take them from their own people or from other people?

bwe@Matthew:17:26 @ Peter said, From other people. Jesus said, Then the sons do not pay a tax.

bwe@Matthew:18:7 @ There will be trouble in the world because people make other people do wrong! People will do wrong. But the person who makes another person do wrong will have trouble.

bwe@Matthew:18:16 @ But if he does not listen to you, take one or two others with you to talk to him. Then two or three people will hear every word and can prove what was said.

bwe@Matthew:18:20 @ Where two or three people meet together in my name, I am there with them.

bwe@Matthew:19:2 @ Many people followed him. He healed them there.

bwe@Matthew:19:4 @ Jesus answered, Have you not read this? From the time God first made people, he made them a man and a woman.

bwe@Matthew:19:6 @ So they are not two people any more, but they are one person. Man must not separate what God has joined together.

bwe@Matthew:19:13 @ Then people brought children to Jesus. They wanted him to put his hands on them and ask God to bless them. The disciples tried to stop the people.

bwe@Matthew:19:14 @ But Jesus said, Let the children come to me. Do not try to stop them. The kingdom of heaven belongs to people like them.

bwe@Matthew:19:21 @ Jesus said, If you want to be all right, go and sell everything you have. Give the money to poor people. For this you will be rich in heaven. Then come and go with me.

bwe@Matthew:19:30 @ But many people who are first will be last, and those who are last will be first.

bwe@Matthew:20:16 @ In the same way, people who are last will be first, and those who are first will be last.

bwe@Matthew:20:17 @ On the way to Jerusalem, Jesus took the twelve disciples with him, away from the people.

bwe@Matthew:20:25 @ But Jesus called them to him and said, You know that those who rule over countries make their people obey them. The great men will tell the others what to do.

bwe@Matthew:20:28 @ The Son of Man did not come to have others help him. But he came to help others. He came to give his life to make many people free.

bwe@Matthew:20:29 @ As Jesus and the disciples left the city of Jericho, many people followed him.

bwe@Matthew:20:31 @ The people said to them, Be quiet! But they shouted louder, Sir, Son of David! Help us!

bwe@Matthew:21:5 @ He said, Tell the people of Zion: See, your king is coming to you. He is not proud. He rides a donkey. It is a young animal.

bwe@Matthew:21:8 @ Many people spread their coats on the road. Others cut leaves from the palm trees and put them on the road.

bwe@Matthew:21:9 @ People in front of him and people behind him shouted, Praise the Son of David! God bless him who comes in the name of the Lord! Praise him in heaven!

bwe@Matthew:21:10 @ When Jesus came into Jerusalem, all the people there were very excited. They said, Who is this?

bwe@Matthew:21:11 @ The people who were with Jesus said, This is Jesus from the town of Nazareth in Galilee. He is a prophet.

bwe@Matthew:21:12 @ Jesus went into the temple of God. He drove out all the people who were buying and selling in the temple. He threw down the tables of the money changers. He pushed down the seats of those who sold doves.

bwe@Matthew:21:13 @ He said to them, The holy writings say, "My house shall be called a house where people talk with God." But you have made it a place for people who steal!

bwe@Matthew:21:14 @ Blind people came to Jesus in the temple. People who could not walk came to him. And he healed them.

bwe@Matthew:21:23 @ He came to the temple and went in and taught the people. The chief priests and the leaders of the people came to him. They asked, What right have you to do these things? Who gave you the right to do them?

bwe@Matthew:21:25 @ Who gave John the right to baptise people? Did God or did men? So they talked it over together. They said, If we say, "God gave John the right to do it," he will say to us, "Then why did you not believe him?"

bwe@Matthew:21:26 @ But if we say, "Men gave him the right to do it," we have the people to fear, because all the people say that John was a prophet.

bwe@Matthew:21:43 @ So I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken from you. It will be given to the people who do what they should do in it.

bwe@Matthew:21:46 @ They wanted to catch him, but they feared the people. The people thought Jesus was a prophet.

bwe@Matthew:22:3 @ The king sent his servants to call the people who had been asked to the wedding. But they would not come.

bwe@Matthew:22:5 @ The people did not listen, but went away. One went to his farm. One went to his business.

bwe@Matthew:22:9 @ Go out on the roads. Call all the people you find to come to the wedding."

bwe@Matthew:22:10 @ So those servants went out on the roads. They brought all the people they could find, both bad and good people. Then the room was full of people for the wedding.

bwe@Matthew:22:11 @ The king came in to look at the people. He saw one man there who was not wearing the right clothes for a wedding.

bwe@Matthew:22:13 @ Then the king said to his servants, "Tie his hands and his feet. Put him in a dark place outside. People there will cry and grind <FI>make a noise with<Fi> their teeth."

bwe@Matthew:22:14 @ Many people are asked to come, but only a few are chosen.

bwe@Matthew:22:16 @ They sent their disciples to him with some of Herods people. They said, Teacher, we know that you are true. We know that you teach the true way of God. You do not fear any person, or care how great he is.

bwe@Matthew:22:23 @ The same day some of the Sadducees came to Jesus. They say that people do not rise from death.

bwe@Matthew:22:28 @ Now then, when people rise from death, which of the seven brothers will have her for his wife? They all married her.

bwe@Matthew:22:30 @ When people rise from death, men and women do not marry. But they are like angels in heaven.

bwe@Matthew:22:31 @ People do rise from death! Have you never read what God said to you?

bwe@Matthew:22:32 @ He said, "I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." He is not the God of dead people, but of living people.

bwe@Matthew:22:33 @ When the people heard this, they were surprised at his teaching.

bwe@Matthew:23:1 @ Then Jesus talked to the people and to his disciples.

bwe@Matthew:23:4 @ They make heavy loads and put them on peoples backs. But they themselves will not put up even one finger to help carry the loads.

bwe@Matthew:23:5 @ They do all their work to be seen by people. They wear bigger and bigger boxes with Gods word in. And they make wider and wider borders on their gowns.

bwe@Matthew:23:7 @ They want people to greet them in the market, and to call them "Teacher".

bwe@Matthew:23:8 @ But people should not call you "Teacher". You have one Teacher. And you are all brothers.

bwe@Matthew:23:10 @ People should not call you "Master". You have one Master. He is the Christ.

bwe@Matthew:23:13 @ You scribes and Pharisees will have trouble. You are not true to yourselves! You shut the door of the kingdom of heaven so people cannot go in. You yourselves do not go in, and you stop those who were going in.

bwe@Matthew:23:19 @ You fools and blind people! Which is greater, the sacrifice or the place that makes the sacrifice holy?

bwe@Matthew:23:36 @ I tell you the truth. The people who are still living now will be punished for all these things.

bwe@Matthew:23:37 @ Jerusalem! Jerusalem! You kill the prophets. You throw stones to kill the men who are sent to you! How often I have wanted to gather your people together, as a mother hen gathers her little ones under her wings. But you would not come!

bwe@Matthew:24:5 @ Many men will come in my name. They will say, "I am the Christ". They will fool many people.

bwe@Matthew:24:7 @ One tribe will fight against another tribe. And one country will fight against another country. The people will have no food to eat. Many people will be sick. The earth will shake in many different places.

bwe@Matthew:24:9 @ Then people will trouble you and kill you. All nations will hate you because you are true to me.

bwe@Matthew:24:10 @ Then many people will stop believing. They will give one another over to trouble. They will hate one another.

bwe@Matthew:24:11 @ Many people will come and say they are prophets of God. But they will not be true. They will fool many people.

bwe@Matthew:24:12 @ People will do more and more wrong things and many people will stop loving me.

bwe@Matthew:24:14 @ This good news about the kingdom will be told in all the world. The people in all countries must know about it. And then the end will come.

bwe@Matthew:24:15 @ Daniel the prophet said that people would put something very bad in the temple. (Let the one who reads this understand it.)

bwe@Matthew:24:16 @ When that happens, the people in Judea must go quickly to the hills.

bwe@Matthew:24:22 @ No person would be saved if the Lord did not cut the time of trouble shorter. He will cut it shorter for the sake of his chosen people.

bwe@Matthew:24:24 @ People will come and say they are the Christ. People will come and say they are prophets. But they are not true. They will show big signs and do wonderful things to fool people. They will fool Gods chosen people if they can.

bwe@Matthew:24:26 @ So if people say to you, "He is in the wilderness," do not go there. If they say, "He is hiding somewhere," do not believe it.

bwe@Matthew:24:30 @ Then people will see the sign of the Son of Man in the sky. Then all the people of the earth will cry. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds in the sky. He will have much power and will be very great.

bwe@Matthew:24:31 @ He will send his angels to call with a loud trumpet or horn. They will gather his chosen people from everywhere all over the earth.

bwe@Matthew:24:34 @ I tell you the truth. The people who are living then, will not die before all these things happen.

bwe@Matthew:24:38 @ In the days before the water covered the earth, people ate and drank. They married and gave their daughters to be married. Then one day Noah went into his house built on a boat.

bwe@Matthew:24:39 @ The people did not know until much water came and killed them all. When the Son of Man comes, it will be like that.

bwe@Matthew:24:51 @ The master will punish him and lock him in with people who are not true. People there will cry and grind <FI>make a noise with<Fi> their teeth.

bwe@Matthew:25:30 @ Take this good-for-nothing servant! Put him out in the dark place outside. People there will cry and make a noise with their teeth."

bwe@Matthew:25:33 @ The Son of Man will put people who are like the sheep at his right side. He will put people who are like the goats at his left side.

bwe@Matthew:25:37 @ Then the good people will ask him, "Lord when did we see you hungry and give you food? When did we see you thirsty and give you a drink?

bwe@Matthew:25:40 @ The King will answer them, "I tell you the truth. What you did for even the smallest of these people you did for me. They are my brothers."

bwe@Matthew:25:46 @ And they will go away to be punished for ever. But the good people will go away to live for ever.

bwe@Matthew:26:3 @ Then at that time the chief priests and the leaders of the people met together in the house of the high priest. His name was Caiaphas.

bwe@Matthew:26:5 @ But they said, Let us not do it on the day of the feast. We do not want the people to start fighting about it.

bwe@Matthew:26:9 @ The oil might have been sold for much money. Then the money could have been given to poor people.

bwe@Matthew:26:11 @ You will always have poor people with you. But I will not always be with you.

bwe@Matthew:26:13 @ I tell you the truth. Any place in the whole world where people tell the good news, people will also tell what she has done. People will remember her because of it.

bwe@Matthew:26:21 @ As they were eating, Jesus said, I tell you the truth. One of you will give me over to people who hate me.

bwe@Matthew:26:25 @ Judas was the one who would give Jesus over to the people who hated him. He said, Master, is it I? Jesus said, Yes, it is.

bwe@Matthew:26:28 @ This is my blood. My blood is the blood of the new agreement. It is given so that many people will be forgiven for the wrong things they did.

bwe@Matthew:26:45 @ Then he went back to his disciples and said to them, Are you still sleeping and resting? The time has come now. The Son of Man is given over to bad people.

bwe@Matthew:26:46 @ Get up. Let us go. Look, here comes the one who will give me over to people who hate me!

bwe@Matthew:26:47 @ As Jesus was saying this, Judas came. He was one of the twelve disciples. Many people came with him. They had long knives or swords and big sticks. The chief priests and the leaders of the people had sent them.

bwe@Matthew:26:52 @ Then Jesus said to him, Put your sword back in its place. All people who fight with a sword will be killed by a sword.

bwe@Matthew:26:55 @ At that same time Jesus said to the people, Have you come to take me with swords and sticks as you would a man who steals? Every day I sat with you in the temple and taught. But you did not try to catch me then.

bwe@Matthew:26:58 @ Peter followed Jesus a long way behind. He went as far as the yard of the high priests house. He sat down with the people who worked for the high priest. He wanted to see how this would end.

bwe@Matthew:26:60 @ But they found nothing. Many people came and said things that were not true. At last two men came.

bwe@Matthew:27:1 @ When it was morning, all the chief priests and the leaders of the people made a plan against Jesus. They wanted to kill him.

bwe@Matthew:27:9 @ What Jeremiah the prophet said long ago, then came true at that time. He said, They took thirty pieces of silver money. That is what the people of Israel said he was worth.

bwe@Matthew:27:13 @ Then Pilate said to him, Do you not hear what these people say against you?

bwe@Matthew:27:15 @ At the feast Pilate used to let one prisoner free. He let the people choose the man they wanted to go free.

bwe@Matthew:27:17 @ So while the people were there Pilate asked them, Which one do you want me to let free for you, Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?

bwe@Matthew:27:20 @ The chief priests and leaders talked to the people. They told them to ask Pilate to let Barabbas go free, but to kill Jesus.

bwe@Matthew:27:21 @ The ruler said to the people, Which of these two do you want me to let go free for you? They said, Barabbas.

bwe@Matthew:27:24 @ Pilate saw that he was not doing any good. And the people were making a lot of loud noise. So he washed his hands in water in front of the people. Then he said, I will not say this man must be killed. You must do that.

bwe@Matthew:27:25 @ Then all the people answered, We and our children will do that.

bwe@Matthew:27:39 @ The people who passed by said bad things about him. They shook their heads.

bwe@Matthew:27:42 @ They said, He saved other people but he cannot save himself! If he is the King of the people of Israel, he should come down from the cross now. Then we will believe in him.

bwe@Matthew:27:47 @ Some of the people standing there heard what Jesus said. They said This man is calling for Elijah.

bwe@Matthew:27:49 @ The other people said, Wait. We will see if Elijah will come and save him.

bwe@Matthew:27:52 @ The graves opened. Many of Gods people who had died rose from death.

bwe@Matthew:27:53 @ They came out of their graves after Jesus rose from death. They went into Jerusalem. Many people saw them there.

bwe@Matthew:27:63 @ They said, Sir, that man fooled people. We remember what he said when he was still living. He said that he would rise after three days.

bwe@Matthew:27:64 @ So give orders that the grave must be guarded for three days. Then his disciples cannot come in the night to carry away his body, and tell people he rose from death. This last trick would be worse than the first.

bwe@Matthew:28:12 @ The chief priests had a meeting with the leaders of the people and talked the matter over. They gave much money to the soldiers.

bwe@Matthew:28:13 @ They said, Tell the people, "His disciples came by night and took away the body while we were sleeping."

bwe@Matthew:28:17 @ When they saw him, they bowed down in front of him. But some people were not sure.

bwe@Mark:1:4 @ John baptised people in the desert. He told them to stop doing wrong things and be baptised, and God would forgive them for the wrong things they did.

bwe@Mark:1:5 @ People from all the land of Judea and all the city of Jerusalem went out to John. He baptised them in the Jordan River when they told about the wrong things they did.

bwe@Mark:1:7 @ He told the people, Another person is coming. He is greater than I am. I am not good enough to bend down and untie his shoe strings.

bwe@Mark:1:14 @ John was put in prison. Then Jesus went to Galilee. He told people the good news of Gods kingdom.

bwe@Mark:1:17 @ Jesus said to them, Come with me. The work I give you will be to catch people.

bwe@Mark:1:21 @ They went to the town of Capernaum. As soon as it was the Sabbath day, Jesus went into their meeting house and taught the people.

bwe@Mark:1:27 @ The people were all surprised. They said one to another, What is this? Is not this a new teaching? He tells the bad spirits what to do and even they obey him

bwe@Mark:1:28 @ The people all around Galilee heard right away about Jesus.

bwe@Mark:1:32 @ That evening when the sun went down, people brought to Jesus all the sick people and those who had bad spirits.

bwe@Mark:1:33 @ All the people in the city crowded around the door.

bwe@Mark:1:34 @ He healed many sick people. He drove the bad spirits out of people. And he did not let them speak because they knew who he was.

bwe@Mark:1:38 @ Jesus said, We must go to the next towns. I must tell the good news to the people there too. That is why I came here.

bwe@Mark:1:39 @ Then Jesus talked to the people in all the meeting houses in all the country of Galilee. He also made the bad spirits come out of people.

bwe@Mark:1:44 @ He said, Do not tell anyone about this. But go and let the priest look at you. Moses gave a law about the gift you must give to God when you are healed. Give it to prove to people that you are healed.

bwe@Mark:1:45 @ But the man went out and told everyone everywhere what had happened to him. Because he did this, Jesus could not go into any large town freely. He stayed in places where only a few people were. There people came to him from everywhere.

bwe@Mark:2:1 @ After a few days he came back to Capernaum. People soon heard that he was at home.

bwe@Mark:2:4 @ But they could not get in the house where Jesus was, because there were so many people. So they went up on the roof. They made a hole in the roof. Then they let down the mat with the sick man on it.

bwe@Mark:2:7 @ They were thinking, Why does this man say such wrong things against God? He is not giving God respect! Who can forgive the wrong things people do? No one but God can do that.

bwe@Mark:2:10 @ I want you to know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive the wrong things people do. So he said to the sick man,

bwe@Mark:2:13 @ Jesus went out again by the seaside. Many people came to him. So he taught them.

bwe@Mark:2:14 @ As he went along, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus. He was sitting at the place where people come to pay taxes. Jesus said to him, Come with me. Levi stood up and went with him.

bwe@Mark:2:15 @ Jesus was eating in Levis house. Many tax collectors and bad people also came. They sat down to eat with Jesus and his disciples. There were many who went with him.

bwe@Mark:2:16 @ The scribes and Pharisees saw that Jesus ate with these people. They said to the disciples, Why does he eat and drink with bad people?

bwe@Mark:2:17 @ Jesus heard it. He said to them, People who are well do not need a doctor. But sick people need him. I did not come to call good people. I came to call bad people to stop doing wrong things.

bwe@Mark:2:18 @ Johns disciples and the Pharisees disciples were fasting <FI>not eating food for a time<Fi>. Some people came to Jesus and said, The disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast. Why do your disciples not do the same?

bwe@Mark:2:19 @ Jesus answered them, The people at a wedding cannot be sad while the man who is married is with them.

bwe@Mark:2:26 @ He went into Gods house when Abiathar was the high priest. Some bread was there for God. It was not right for them to eat it. Only the priests have the right to eat it. But David took the bread and ate it. He also gave some of it to the people who were with him.

bwe@Mark:3:4 @ Then he spoke to the Pharisees. He said, Is it right to do good things on the Sabbath day or to do wrong things? Is it right to heal people so they will live, or to let them die? But the Pharisees said nothing.

bwe@Mark:3:8 @ Jesus and his disciples went away to the sea of Galilee. Many people went with Jesus. They came from Galilee, Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, and from the other side of the Jordan River. And many more people came also, a great many from around the cities of Tyre and Sidon. They also had heard about the great works that Jesus had done.

bwe@Mark:3:10 @ He did this because he healed many people. All who were sick tried to touch him.

bwe@Mark:3:13 @ Then Jesus went up on the hill. He wanted some of the people to come with him. So he called them and they came.

bwe@Mark:3:14 @ He chose twelve disciples to stay with him. He wanted to send them out to other places to tell people Gods word.

bwe@Mark:3:15 @ He gave them power to heal people and to drive bad spirits out of people.

bwe@Mark:3:19 @ He also chose Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon of Canan, and Judas Iscariot, the one who gave Jesus over to people who hated him. Then Jesus and his disciples went home.

bwe@Mark:3:20 @ So many people came again that they could not even eat.

bwe@Mark:3:23 @ Jesus called the people and talked to them in stories. He asked, How can Satan drive out Satan?

bwe@Mark:3:28 @ I tell you the truth. All wrong things that people do and say about anyone will be forgiven.

bwe@Mark:3:29 @ But people who say wrong things against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven. A person who does that will be punished for ever.

bwe@Mark:3:32 @ Many people were sitting around him. They said, See, your mother and your brothers are outside. They want you.

bwe@Mark:3:34 @ Then he looked at the people who sat around him. He said, These people are my mother and my brothers!

bwe@Mark:4:1 @ Jesus began to teach people by the sea again. Many people came to him. So he got in a boat on the sea and sat down. The people were by the sea on the land.

bwe@Mark:4:2 @ He told the people stories and taught them many things.

bwe@Mark:4:10 @ Later, Jesus was alone. Then the twelve disciples and the other people who were there asked him about the stories.

bwe@Mark:4:11 @ He said to them, You can learn the secret things about the kingdom of God. But we must use stories to tell the other people.

bwe@Mark:4:15 @ Those beside the road are like people who hear the message. But as soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes it out of their hearts

bwe@Mark:4:16 @ The seed that fell on the stony ground is the same. It is like people who hear the message and as soon as they hear it they are very glad.

bwe@Mark:4:18 @ The seed that fell among the weeds is like people who hear the message.

bwe@Mark:4:20 @ But some seed fell on good ground. That is like people who hear the message and understand it. Much good comes from it. Some people are like the seed that made thirty seeds. Some people are like the seed that gave sixty. Some people are like the seed that gave a hundred.

bwe@Mark:4:21 @ Then Jesus said to them, People do not bring a light and put it under a basket or under a bed. But they put it on the place for a lamp.

bwe@Mark:4:33 @ Jesus told the people many stories like this. He told them as much of Gods words as they were able to understand.

bwe@Mark:4:36 @ The disciples left the people and took Jesus away in the boat he was in. Other little boats were with him.

bwe@Mark:5:1 @ They came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarene people.

bwe@Mark:5:4 @ Many times people had tied him with strong ropes and chains. But he broke the chains and tore the ropes into many pieces. No person was strong enough to hold the man.

bwe@Mark:5:14 @ Then the men who cared for the pigs ran away. They told the people in the city and all around the country about it. The people went out to see what had happened.

bwe@Mark:5:15 @ They came to Jesus. They saw the man who had the many bad spirits in him. He was sitting with clothes on and was not crazy any more. The people were afraid.

bwe@Mark:5:17 @ Then the people began to beg Jesus to go away out of their country.

bwe@Mark:5:20 @ So the man went away and told people in the Ten Towns what Jesus had done for him. All the people were surprised.

bwe@Mark:5:21 @ Jesus crossed over the sea again to the other side. Many people came to him while he was near the water.

bwe@Mark:5:24 @ So Jesus went with Jairus. Many people went with Jesus and pushed against him.

bwe@Mark:5:27 @ When she heard of Jesus, she came among the people behind him. Then she reached out and touched his clothes.

bwe@Mark:5:30 @ Jesus knew right away that power to heal went out from him. He turned around among the people and said, Who touched my clothes?

bwe@Mark:5:31 @ But his disciples said to him, You see all these people pushing around you. Why do you ask, "Who touched me?"

bwe@Mark:5:35 @ While Jesus was still talking, some people came from the rulers house. They said, Your daughter has died. Why trouble the Teacher any more?

bwe@Mark:5:38 @ They came to the rulers house. Jesus saw that there was trouble. People were crying and making much noise because the rulers daughter had died.

bwe@Mark:5:42 @ The girl got up right away and walked around. She was twelve years old. The people were very much surprised.

bwe@Mark:6:2 @ On the Sabbath day he began to teach in the meeting house again. Many people who heard him were very much surprised and said, Where did he learn all this? Where did he get the power to do these big works?

bwe@Mark:6:3 @ Is he not the carpenter? Is not Mary his mother? Are not James, Joseph, Judas, and Simon his brothers? Are not his sisters here with us? The people did not understand Jesus.

bwe@Mark:6:4 @ Jesus said to them, Other people honour a man who is a prophet of God. But the people in his own country, his own home, and his family, do not honour him.

bwe@Mark:6:5 @ Jesus could not do any big works in that place. But he put his hands on a few sick people and healed them.

bwe@Mark:6:6 @ He was surprised that the people did not believe him. He went out to the villages, teaching the people.

bwe@Mark:6:7 @ He called the twelve disciples to him and sent them out two by two. He gave them power to drive bad spirits out of people.

bwe@Mark:6:11 @ In some places the people will not take you in. They will not listen to what you say. When you leave such a town, shake the dust off your feet. That will be a warning to them. I tell you the truth. On the day when people are judged, the people in that town will be punished harder than the people in the country of Sodom and Gomorrah.

bwe@Mark:6:12 @ The disciples went out and told the people that they should stop doing wrong things.

bwe@Mark:6:13 @ They drove bad spirits out of many people. They also put oil on many sick people and healed them.

bwe@Mark:6:14 @ King Herod heard about these things. People were talking about Jesus everywhere. Herod said, John the Baptizer is risen from death. That is why he is able to do such great works.

bwe@Mark:6:15 @ Other people said, It is Elijah. Others said, He is a prophet like the prophets of God who lived long ago.

bwe@Mark:6:16 @ Herod heard what other people said, so he said, I cut off Johns head. He is alive again.

bwe@Mark:6:17 @ Herod had sent his people to catch John. They tied him and put him in prison to please Herodias. Herod had married her, but she was his brother Philips wife.

bwe@Mark:6:22 @ The daughter of Herodias came in and danced for them. This pleased Herod and the people at the feast. Then the king said to the girl, Ask me for anything you want and I will give it to you.

bwe@Mark:6:26 @ The king was very sorry. But he had made a promise and all the people at the feast had heard him promise. He wanted to do what he promised her.

bwe@Mark:6:31 @ Jesus said to them, Come away with me. Let us go alone to a quiet place and rest for a while. Many people were coming and going. They could not even eat.

bwe@Mark:6:33 @ The people saw them going. Many people knew them. The people ran from all the towns and got there ahead of them.

bwe@Mark:6:34 @ When the boat got there, Jesus saw the many people. He was very sorry for them because they were like sheep with no one to care for them. He began to teach them many things.

bwe@Mark:6:36 @ Send these people away to farms and villages to buy food for themselves. They have nothing to eat.

bwe@Mark:6:39 @ Jesus told the disciples to make all the people sit on the green grass in groups.

bwe@Mark:6:40 @ The people sat down in groups. Some groups were a hundred people and some were fifty people.

bwe@Mark:6:41 @ Jesus took the five loaves of bread and the two fish. He looked up to heaven and thanked God for them. Then he broke them in pieces. He gave them to the disciples to give to the people. Then he divided the two fish among them all.

bwe@Mark:6:45 @ Then Jesus said to the disciples, You get into the boat right away and go over to Bethsaida. I will send the people away.

bwe@Mark:6:46 @ When he had sent the people away, he went up on the hill to talk with God.

bwe@Mark:6:54 @ As soon as he got out of the boat, the people knew him.

bwe@Mark:6:55 @ They went quickly to all the country around. They brought sick people in their beds to the place where they heard Jesus was.

bwe@Mark:6:56 @ They laid sick people by the road in villages, towns, and farms and every place he went. They begged him to let them touch his clothes. And all the people who touched him were healed.

bwe@Mark:7:6 @ Jesus said to them, Isaiah spoke the truth about you people! You are not true to yourselves! He wrote about you this way: "These people respect me with their mouths. But their hearts are far from me. They do not mean it in their hearts when they worship me. Their teachings are only words of men."

bwe@Mark:7:8 @ You do not keep the law of God, but you keep the laws made by people. Those laws are about washing pots and cups. You do many other things like that also.

bwe@Mark:7:14 @ Then Jesus called the people to him again. He said, Listen to me, all of you, and understand what I say.

bwe@Mark:7:17 @ Jesus left the people and went into a house. His disciples asked him the meaning of the story.

bwe@Mark:7:21 @ Here is what comes from the heart: wrong thoughts, all kinds of adultery, stealing, killing, wanting things that other people have, doing very wrong things, fooling people, breaking the law, jealousy, saying wrong things about people, being proud, being foolish.

bwe@Mark:7:23 @ Then Jesus went away to the country of Tyre and Sidon. He went into a house and did not want anyone to know he was there. But he could not hide from the people.

bwe@Mark:7:31 @ The people brought a man to Jesus who could not hear and could not talk well. They begged Jesus to put his hand on him.

bwe@Mark:7:36 @ The people were very much surprised. They said, He has done everything well. The people who could not hear can hear. The people who could not talk can talk.

bwe@Mark:8:1 @ Again at that time many, many people came together. They had nothing to eat. Jesus called his disciples. He said,

bwe@Mark:8:2 @ I share the suffering of the people. They have been with me for three days and they have nothing to eat.

bwe@Mark:8:4 @ His disciples answered, Where can anyone get enough food in this lonely place to feed so many people?

bwe@Mark:8:6 @ He told the people to sit down on the ground. Then he took the seven loaves of bread and thanked God for them. Then he broke the bread and gave it to the disciples. They gave it to the people.

bwe@Mark:8:7 @ They had a few small fish. Jesus told the disciples to divide the fish among the people also.

bwe@Mark:8:8 @ The people ate and had enough. They gathered seven baskets full of pieces that were left.

bwe@Mark:8:12 @ He sighed deeply in his spirit and said, Why do people today want a sign? I tell you the truth. No sign will be given to them.

bwe@Mark:8:19 @ When I broke five loaves for five thousand people, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you gather? They said, Twelve.

bwe@Mark:8:20 @ He said, When I broke seven loaves for four thousand people, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you gather? They said, Seven.

bwe@Mark:8:22 @ Then they came to Bethsaida. Some people brought a blind man to Jesus. They begged him to touch the man.

bwe@Mark:8:27 @ Jesus went with his disciples to the villages in Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, Who do people say that I am?

bwe@Mark:8:28 @ They answered, People say that you are John the Baptizer. Others say that you are Elijah. And others say that you are one of the prophets from long ago.

bwe@Mark:8:33 @ Jesus turned around and saw the disciples. Then he talked to Peter. He said, Get away from me, Satan! You are not thinking the way God thinks, but the way people think.

bwe@Mark:8:34 @ Jesus called the people and the disciples to him. He said, If anyone wants to come with me he must leave what he himself wants to do. He must be ready to carry his own cross and come with me.

bwe@Mark:8:37 @ What can a person give to get back his soul? People have gone away from God and are full of wrong ways. If anyone in this time is ashamed of me and the things I say, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of that person when he comes. The Son of Man will come with his holy angels, and be great like his Father.

bwe@Mark:9:1 @ Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth. Some people are standing here who will not die before they see the kingdom of God come with power.

bwe@Mark:9:12 @ He said, Elijah does come first. He will get everything ready. But why do the holy writings say that the Son of Man must have much trouble? They say, "He will have much trouble and the people will not respect him."

bwe@Mark:9:13 @ I tell you that Elijah has come. The people did to him just what they wanted to do. They did just as it is written about him.

bwe@Mark:9:14 @ When they came to the disciples, they saw many people around them. Some scribes were talking with the disciples.

bwe@Mark:9:15 @ The people were all very much surprised when they saw Jesus. They ran to him and greeted him.

bwe@Mark:9:17 @ One of the people said, Teacher, I brought my son to you. A bad spirit is in him so he cannot talk.

bwe@Mark:9:19 @ Jesus said, You people today do not believe. How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.

bwe@Mark:9:25 @ Jesus saw many people come running together. He talked to the bad spirit: You bad spirit who stops the boy from hearing and talking! I tell you, come out of him and do not go into him again!

bwe@Mark:9:26 @ The bad spirit screamed and threw the boy around. Then it came out of him and left him like a dead person. Many of the people even said, The boy is dead.

bwe@Mark:9:29 @ Jesus said to them, This kind of bad spirit does not come out unless people talk to God and fast.

bwe@Mark:9:38 @ John said to him, Master, we saw a man driving bad spirits out of people. He was using your name, but he is not one of us. So we told him to stop because he is not one of us.

bwe@Mark:10:1 @ Jesus left that place and went through the country of Judea on the other side of the Jordan river. Many people came to him there again. He taught them as he always did.

bwe@Mark:10:6 @ From the time God first made people, he made them man and woman.

bwe@Mark:10:8 @ The two of them will be like one person. So they are not two people any more, but they are one person.

bwe@Mark:10:13 @ They brought children to Jesus. They wanted him to put his hands on them. The disciples tried to stop the people.

bwe@Mark:10:21 @ Jesus looked at him. He loved him. He said, You need one thing more. Go home. Sell everything you have. Give the money to the poor people. You will be rich in heaven. So be ready to carry your own cross and come with me.

bwe@Mark:10:23 @ Then Jesus looked around at his disciples and said to them, It is very hard for rich people to enter the kingdom of God.

bwe@Mark:10:24 @ The disciples were surprised at his words. But Jesus said again, Children, it is very hard for people who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God.

bwe@Mark:10:31 @ But many people who are first will be last, and those who are last will be first.

bwe@Mark:10:32 @ Jesus and his disciples were on the road to Jerusalem. Jesus was walking in front of them. The disciples were surprised. And the people who came behind were afraid. He took the twelve disciples and began to tell them what was going to happen to him.

bwe@Mark:10:42 @ Jesus called them and said, You know the people who rule over countries make their people obey them. The great will tell the others what to do.

bwe@Mark:10:45 @ The Son of Man did not come to have others help him. But he came to help others. He came to give his life to make many people free.

bwe@Mark:10:46 @ Then they came to Jericho. As Jesus and his disciples left Jericho, many people followed him. A blind man named Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the road. He was begging for money.

bwe@Mark:10:48 @ Many people said, Be quiet! But he shouted louder, Son of David! Help me!

bwe@Mark:11:5 @ People standing there said, What are you doing, untying the animal?

bwe@Mark:11:8 @ Many people spread their coats on the road. Others cut leaves and branches from the fields and put them on the road.

bwe@Mark:11:9 @ People in front of him and people behind him shouted, Praise God! God bless him who comes in the name of the Lord!

bwe@Mark:11:15 @ They reached Jerusalem. Jesus went into the temple. He began to drive out the people who were buying and selling in the temple. He threw down the tables of the money changers. He pushed down the seats of those who sold doves.

bwe@Mark:11:17 @ He taught the people, saying, The holy writings say, "My house shall be called a house for all tribes and nations, where people talk with God." But you have made it a place for people who steal!

bwe@Mark:11:18 @ The chief priests and scribes heard what he said. They wanted to find some way to kill him. They feared Jesus because all the people were surprised at his teaching.

bwe@Mark:11:30 @ Who gave John the right to baptise people? Did God or did men? Answer me!

bwe@Mark:11:32 @ But what if we say, "Men gave him the right to do it"? They feared the people because they all believed that John was a prophet of God.

bwe@Mark:12:12 @ They tried to catch Jesus but they feared the people. They knew that Jesus had spoken this against them. So they left him and went away.

bwe@Mark:12:13 @ They sent some Pharisees and some of Herods people to Jesus. They planned how to make Jesus say something wrong.

bwe@Mark:12:17 @ So he said, Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and give to God what belongs to God. The Pharisees and Herods people were much surprised at Jesus.

bwe@Mark:12:18 @ Some of the Sadducees came to Jesus. They say that people do not rise from death. They asked Jesus a question.

bwe@Mark:12:23 @ Now then when people rise from death, whose wife will she be? All seven of them had married her.

bwe@Mark:12:25 @ When people rise from death, men and women do not marry. But they are like angels in heaven.

bwe@Mark:12:26 @ People do rise from death! Have you never read what Moses wrote? It is in the place where we read about the small tree which burned. Moses tells how God said to him, "I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob."

bwe@Mark:12:27 @ He is not the God of dead people, but of living people. The way you look at things is wrong altogether.

bwe@Mark:12:35 @ Jesus was teaching people in the temple. He said, How can the scribes say that Christ is Davids son?

bwe@Mark:12:37 @ So David calls Christ his Lord. How can Christ be Davids son? Most of the people were glad to hear Jesus teaching.

bwe@Mark:12:38 @ Jesus went on to teach them. He said, Take care. Do not let the scribes fool you by the way they do things. They like to walk about with long gowns. They want people to greet them in the market.

bwe@Mark:12:41 @ Jesus sat down in the temple near the place where people put in their money. He saw how the people put in money. Many rich people put in much money.

bwe@Mark:12:43 @ Jesus called his disciples. He said, I tell you the truth. This poor woman has given more money than all the other people.

bwe@Mark:12:44 @ All these people had plenty of money and they gave only a part of it. She was poor and she gave everything she had. She has nothing left to live on.

bwe@Mark:13:6 @ Many men will come in my name. They will say, "I am Christ." They will fool many people.

bwe@Mark:13:8 @ One tribe will fight against another tribe. And one country will fight against another country. The earth will shake in many different places. People will have no food to eat. These troubles are only the beginning of the troubles that will come.

bwe@Mark:13:10 @ The good news must first be told to all people.

bwe@Mark:13:13 @ All people will hate you because you are true to me. But the person who keeps on being true to me until the end will be saved.

bwe@Mark:13:14 @ Daniel the Man of God said that people would put something very bad in the temple. (Let the one who reads this understand it.) When that happens, the people in Judea must go quickly to the hills.

bwe@Mark:13:20 @ No person would be saved if the Lord did not make the time of trouble shorter. He will make it shorter for the sake of his chosen people.

bwe@Mark:13:22 @ People will come and say they are the Christ. People will come and say they are prophets of God. But they are not true to themselves. They will show big signs and do wonderful things that will fool people. They will fool Gods chosen people if they can.

bwe@Mark:13:26 @ Then people will see the sign of the Son of Man in the clouds. He will have much power and be very great.

bwe@Mark:13:27 @ He will send out the angels to gather his chosen people. They will gather them from everywhere all over the earth.

bwe@Mark:13:30 @ I tell you the truth. The people who are living then will not die before all these things happen.

bwe@Mark:14:2 @ But they said, Let us not do it on the day of the feast. We do not want the people to start fighting about it.

bwe@Mark:14:4 @ Some people there were angry. They said, Why was this oil wasted like that?

bwe@Mark:14:5 @ The oil might have been sold for a lot of money. Then the money could have been given to poor people. They said to the woman, You should not have done this!

bwe@Mark:14:7 @ You will always have poor people with you. Any time you want to, you can do good to them. But I will not always be with you.

bwe@Mark:14:9 @ I tell you the truth. Any place in the whole world where people tell the good news, people will also tell what she has done. People will remember her because of it.

bwe@Mark:14:18 @ While they were sitting at the table eating, Jesus said, I tell you the truth. One of you who is eating with me will give me over to people who hate me.

bwe@Mark:14:24 @ Then he said to them, This is my blood. It is given for many people. It makes the agreement strong.

bwe@Mark:14:41 @ Then he went back the third time. He said, Are you still sleeping and resting?. It is enough. The time has come now. The Son of Man is given over to bad people.

bwe@Mark:14:42 @ Get up. Let us go. Look, here comes the one who will give me over to people who hate me!

bwe@Mark:14:43 @ While he was saying this, Judas came. He was one of the twelve disciples. Many people came with him. They had long knives or swords and big sticks. The chief priests, the scribes, and the leaders had sent them.

bwe@Mark:14:51 @ A young man went with Jesus. He had a piece of cloth about him. The people caught him.

bwe@Mark:14:53 @ The people took Jesus away to the high priest. All the chief priests, the leaders, and the scribes met there.

bwe@Mark:14:54 @ Peter followed far behind Jesus. He went into the yard of the high priests house. He sat down with the people who worked for the high priest. He warmed himself by the fire.

bwe@Mark:14:56 @ Many people came and said things that were not true. But one said this thing and the other said that thing.

bwe@Mark:14:58 @ They said, We heard him say, "I will break down this temple which people have built with hands. In three days I will build another temple but not with hands."

bwe@Mark:14:60 @ The high priest stood up among the people and asked Jesus, Have you no answer? What do you have to say about this? They have said something against you.

bwe@Mark:14:65 @ Some people began to spit on him. They covered his face and hit him. They laughed at him and said, Tell us if you know who hit you! The guards took him away and hit him as they went.

bwe@Mark:14:69 @ A girl saw Peter there and said to the other people standing by, This man is one of them.

bwe@Mark:15:4 @ Then Pilate asked him, Have you nothing to say? These people are bringing many complaints against you!

bwe@Mark:15:6 @ At the feast Pilate used to let one prisoner free. He let the people choose the man they wanted to go free.

bwe@Mark:15:7 @ In the prison was a man named Barabbas. He had led some people who had been fighting in the city. He had killed a man.

bwe@Mark:15:8 @ The people started shouting. They asked Pilate to let one prisoner free, as he used to do.

bwe@Mark:15:11 @ But the chief priests talked to the people. They told them to ask Pilate to let Barabbas go free.

bwe@Mark:15:15 @ Pilate wanted to please the people, so he let Barabbas go free. He told the soldiers to beat Jesus and nail him to a cross.

bwe@Mark:15:28 @ The holy writings say, He was counted as one of the bad people. It came true.

bwe@Mark:15:29 @ The people who passed by said wrong things about him. They shook their heads and said, Ha, ha! You are the man who said you could break down the temple and build it again in three days.

bwe@Mark:15:31 @ The chief priests and the scribes also made fun of him. He saved other people, but he cannot save himself!

bwe@Mark:15:32 @ If he is the Christ, the king of the people of Israel, he should come down from the cross now. We want to see it and believe! The bad men who were also nailed to crosses said the same things to him.

bwe@Mark:15:35 @ Some of the people standing there heard what Jesus said. They said, Listen, he is calling for Elijah!

bwe@Mark:16:17 @ These signs will be with those who believe. They will drive bad spirits out of people by using my name. They will speak new languages.

bwe@Mark:16:18 @ They will take up snakes. If they drink poison, it will not make them sick. They will put their hands on sick people and sick people will get well again.

bwe@Luke:1:1 @ Many people have tried already to write down the things that have happened among us.

bwe@Luke:1:4 @ Then you will know that the things people have told you are true.

bwe@Luke:1:6 @ Both of them were good people as God saw them. They obeyed all the laws and the things that the Lord said they should do.

bwe@Luke:1:10 @ All the people were talking to God outside the temple at this time.

bwe@Luke:1:14 @ You will be glad and happy. Many people will be glad when he is born.

bwe@Luke:1:15 @ He will be great in the way the Lord calls people great. He must not drink wine or any strong drink. He will be filled with the Holy Spirit from the time he is born.

bwe@Luke:1:16 @ He will bring back many of the people of Israel to the Lord their God.

bwe@Luke:1:17 @ He will go ahead of the Lord. He will have the spirit and power of Elijah. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children. And he will bring back the people who do not obey, so that they will want to do what good people do. He will make people ready for the Lord.

bwe@Luke:1:21 @ the people were waiting for Zechariah to come out of the temple. They were surprised that he stayed in so long.

bwe@Luke:1:24 @ After that, his wife Elizabeth found she was going to have a baby. For five months she stayed away from people.

bwe@Luke:1:25 @ She said to herself, The Lord has done this for me. At this time he has remembered me so that I need not be ashamed among people anymore.

bwe@Luke:1:33 @ He will be king over the people of Israel for ever. He will never stop being king.

bwe@Luke:1:36 @ Your cousin Elizabeth is also going to have a baby son, though she is an old woman. This is the sixth month for her. She is one whom people said would not have a baby.

bwe@Luke:1:48 @ He has remembered his servant even though she is not a great person. From now on all people of all times will say God has blessed me.

bwe@Luke:1:50 @ He is kind to people of all times who respect him.

bwe@Luke:1:51 @ He has shown how strong he is with his arm. He has taken away people who were proud in their hearts.

bwe@Luke:1:53 @ He has given hungry people good things to eat, and sent away the rich people with nothing.

bwe@Luke:1:59 @ On the eighth day people came to circumcise <FI>make a special mark on<Fi> the child. They were going to name him Zechariah like his father.

bwe@Luke:1:68 @ He said, Praise the Lord God of Israel! He has remembered his people, and set them free.

bwe@Luke:1:77 @ You will tell his people how to be saved by being forgiven for their wrong ways.

bwe@Luke:1:80 @ The child grew. He became strong in spirit. He lived in the desert until the day when he came to the people of Israel.

bwe@Luke:2:1 @ About that time, Augustus the Roman ruler made a law. All the people in the world must have their names written down in a book.

bwe@Luke:2:10 @ The angel said to them, Fear not! Listen, I bring you good news! This news will make you very glad. It is for all people.

bwe@Luke:2:14 @ They said, Praise God in the highest heaven! Peace on earth and loving mercy towards all people!

bwe@Luke:2:30 @ I have seen with my own eyes the one you have sent to save people.

bwe@Luke:2:31 @ You have made this way for all peoples to be saved.

bwe@Luke:2:32 @ He is a light which will shine for those who do not know God. He is the one who will bring praise to your people Israel.

bwe@Luke:2:34 @ Simeon blessed them. He said to Mary, the mother of Jesus, He will be a sign that people do not believe in. He will make many people in Israel fall and rise.

bwe@Luke:2:35 @ (Yes, a long knife will cut your heart too.) What people think will be made known.

bwe@Luke:2:38 @ While Simeon was talking to Mary, Anna also came along and thanked God. She talked about Jesus to all the people who were waiting for the one who would set Jerusalem free.

bwe@Luke:2:44 @ They thought he was coming with the rest of the people. They travelled one day. Then they looked for him among their family and friends.

bwe@Luke:2:52 @ Jesus grew and became wiser and taller. He pleased God and also people.

bwe@Luke:3:3 @ Then John went to all the country around the Jordan River. He told the people to stop doing wrong things, turn back to God and be baptised. And God would forgive them for the wrong things they did.

bwe@Luke:3:6 @ And all people will see that God can save."

bwe@Luke:3:7 @ Many people came out to John to be baptised. He said to them, You family of snakes! Who told you to run away from Gods anger that is coming?

bwe@Luke:3:10 @ The people asked John, What shall we do?

bwe@Luke:3:13 @ He said to them, Do not make people pay more money than you are told to.

bwe@Luke:3:14 @ Some soldiers also asked him, What shall we do? He answered them Do not force people. Do not tell lies about people. Do not want more pay than you get.

bwe@Luke:3:15 @ The people were waiting to see what would happen. They were all asking about John. They thought that he might be the Christ, the great king promised by God long ago.

bwe@Luke:3:18 @ By these words and many other ways, he told the people the good news.

bwe@Luke:3:21 @ When all the other people had been baptised, Jesus was also baptised. While he was talking with God, the sky opened.

bwe@Luke:3:23 @ Jesus was about thirty years old when he began his work. The people thought he was Josephs son. Here are the names of Jesus family line: Joseph, Heli, Matthat, Levi, Melchi, Janna, Joseph, Mattathiah, Amos, Nahum, Esli, Naggai, Maath, Mattathiah, Semei, Joseph, Judah, Joannas, Rhesa, Zerubbabel, Shealtiel, Neri, Melchi, Addi, Cosam, Elmodam, Er, Jose, Eliezer, Jorim, Matthat, Levi, Simeon, Judah, Joseph, Jonan, Eliakim, Melea, Menen, Mattathah, Nathan, David, Jesse, Obed, Boaz, Salmon, Nahshon, Amminadab, Ram, Hezron, Perez, Judah, Jacob, Isaac, Abraham, Terah, Nahor, Serug, Reu, Peleg, Eber, Shelah, Cainan, Arphaxad, Shem, Noah, Lamech, Methuselah, Enoch, Jared, Mahalalel, Cainan, Enosh, Seth, Adam. Adam came from God.

bwe@Luke:4:14 @ Jesus had the power of the Spirit when he went back to Galilee. People talked about him in all that part of the country.

bwe@Luke:4:15 @ He taught them in their meeting houses. All the people praised him.

bwe@Luke:4:18 @ The Spirit of the Lord is on me because he chose me to tell the good news to poor people. He has sent me to tell the prisoners they can go free, and to tell the blind people they can see. He has sent me to set free those who have been wrongly held down,

bwe@Luke:4:19 @ and to tell people that the year when the Lord will help them has come.

bwe@Luke:4:24 @ And he went on to say, I tell you the truth. No prophet of God is accepted by the people in his own country.

bwe@Luke:4:27 @ Also while Elisha was the prophet of God, many people in Israel had leprosy <FI>a bad skin disease<Fi>. None of them was healed. The only one who was healed was Naaman from the country of Syria.

bwe@Luke:4:28 @ When they heard this, all the people in the meeting house were very angry.

bwe@Luke:4:31 @ Jesus went to the town of Capernaum in Galilee. He taught the people there on the Sabbath day.

bwe@Luke:4:36 @ All the people were very much surprised. They said to each other, What kind of talk is this? He can make bad spirits obey him. He tells them to come out and they come out.

bwe@Luke:4:37 @ The people in all the places around Capernaum heard about him.

bwe@Luke:4:40 @ When the sun went down, the people brought to Jesus all who were sick in any way. He put his hands on every one of them and healed them.

bwe@Luke:4:41 @ The bad spirits also came out of many people. They called out, You are the Son of God! But he stopped them. He would not let them talk because they knew that he was the Christ.

bwe@Luke:4:42 @ The next morning Jesus went away to a place by himself. The people went to look for him. When they found him, they did not want him to leave them.

bwe@Luke:4:43 @ But he said to them, I must tell the good news to the people in other towns also. It is the news of Gods kingdom. I was sent to tell this.

bwe@Luke:5:1 @ The people came close around Jesus to hear Gods word. He was standing by Lake Gennesaret <FI>the Sea of Galilee<Fi>.

bwe@Luke:5:3 @ Jesus got into one of the boats. It was Simons boat. Jesus asked him to put the boat out into the water a little way from the land. Then he sat down in the boat and taught the people.

bwe@Luke:5:14 @ Jesus said to him, Do not tell anyone about this. But go and let the priest look at you. Moses gave a law about the sacrifice you must give when you are healed. Give it to prove to the people that you are healed.

bwe@Luke:5:15 @ But more people heard about Jesus than before. And many people gathered to hear him, and so be healed.

bwe@Luke:5:17 @ One day Jesus was teaching people. Pharisees and other Jewish teachers of the law were sitting there. They had come from every town in Galilee and Judea, and from Jerusalem. Jesus had the power of the Lord to heal the sick.

bwe@Luke:5:19 @ But they could not get in the house where Jesus was, because there were so many people. So they went up on the roof. Then through a hole in the roof they let down the bed with the sick man on it, until he was in front of Jesus.

bwe@Luke:5:24 @ I want you to know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive wrong things people have done. So he said to the sick man, I tell you, get up. Take up your bed and go home.

bwe@Luke:5:26 @ The people were all surprised and they praised God. They did not know what to think. They said, We have seen things today that are hard to believe.

bwe@Luke:5:27 @ After this, Jesus went out. He saw a tax collector named Levi. Levi was sitting at the place where people came to pay taxes. Jesus said to him Come with me.

bwe@Luke:5:29 @ Levi made a big dinner at his house for Jesus. Many tax collectors and other people were sitting at the table with them.

bwe@Luke:5:30 @ The Pharisees and their scribes did not like what Jesus disciples did. They said, Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and bad people?"

bwe@Luke:5:31 @ Jesus answered them, People who are well do not need a doctor. But sick people need him.

bwe@Luke:5:32 @ I did not come to call good people. I came to call bad people to stop doing wrong things.

bwe@Luke:5:34 @ Then Jesus said to them, The people at a wedding cannot be sad while the man who is married is with them.

bwe@Luke:6:9 @ Jesus said to them, I ask you, is it right to do good things on the Sabbath day, or to do wrong things? Is it right to heal people so that they will live, or to let them die?

bwe@Luke:6:14 @ They were Simon, whom Jesus called Peter, and his brother Andrew, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew, Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the freedom fighter, Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, the one who gave Jesus over to people who hated him.

bwe@Luke:6:17 @ Then Jesus came down the hill with them and stood on the flat ground. Many people came. There were many of his disciples. And there were many people from all parts of Judea, and from Jerusalem, and from the seaside of Tyre and Sidon. They came to hear him and to be healed because they were sick.

bwe@Luke:6:19 @ All the people wanted to touch Jesus. Power came from him and he healed them all.

bwe@Luke:6:22 @ God will make you happy when people hate you, when they will not let you belong to their group, when they say wrong things about you and make your name bad. God blesses you when it is for the sake of the Son of Man.

bwe@Luke:6:23 @ Be very happy on that day and dance for joy. God will be good to you in heaven. The fathers of these people did the same things to the prophets of God long ago.

bwe@Luke:6:26 @ When all the people praise you, you will have trouble! The fathers of these people did the same things to those who were not true prophets of God.

bwe@Luke:6:31 @ Do to other people what you want them to do to you.

bwe@Luke:6:32 @ If you love those who love you, what good is there in that? Even bad people love those who love them.

bwe@Luke:6:33 @ If you do good things to those who do good things to you, what good is there in that? Bad people do the same.

bwe@Luke:6:34 @ If you lend to those who will give to you, what good is there in that? Even bad people lend to bad people, if they think they will get the same from them.

bwe@Luke:6:35 @ Love your enemies. Do good things. Lend to people and do not look to get anything back. You will be paid well. You will be sons of the Highest One. He is kind to those who do not thank him and to those who are bad.

bwe@Luke:6:38 @ Give to people and they will give to you. They will fill your cup, press it down, shake it, and let it run over. That is what they will give to you. How much you give to others is how much God will give to you.

bwe@Luke:6:39 @ Jesus also told the people a story. He said, A blind man cannot lead a blind man. They will both fall into a hole.

bwe@Luke:6:44 @ Every kind of tree is known by its fruit. People do not pick fruit like figs from thorn trees. And they do not pick grapes from bramble bushes.

bwe@Luke:7:1 @ Jesus finished saying all these things for the people to hear. Then he went to Capernaum.

bwe@Luke:7:5 @ He loves our people and he built the meeting house for us.

bwe@Luke:7:9 @ Jesus was surprised when he heard this. He turned to the people who followed him. He said, I tell you, I have not found a Jew who believes as this man does.

bwe@Luke:7:11 @ Soon after that, Jesus went to the town of Nain. His disciples and many other people went with him.

bwe@Luke:7:12 @ He came near the gate of the town. There he met people carrying out a man who had died. He was the only son of his mother. And her husband was dead too. Many people from the city were with her.

bwe@Luke:7:16 @ Everyone was very much surprised. They praised God. They said, A great prophet of God has come to us. God has remembered his people.

bwe@Luke:7:17 @ The people all over Judea and all the country around it heard what Jesus had done.

bwe@Luke:7:21 @ At that time Jesus healed many people who were sick or had troubles or bad spirits. He made many blind people able to see.

bwe@Luke:7:22 @ He answered Johns disciples, Go tell John what you have seen and heard. Blind people see. The lame people walk. People with leprosy are healed. People who could not hear can hear. Dead people are alive again. Poor people hear the good news.

bwe@Luke:7:24 @ When Johns messengers had gone away, Jesus began to talk to the people about John. He said, What did you go out into the desert to see? Did you go out to see a tall grass moving in the wind?

bwe@Luke:7:25 @ What did you go out to see? A man wearing fine clothes? People who wear fine clothes and have nice things live in kings houses.

bwe@Luke:7:29 @ All the people and the tax collectors praised God when they heard that. They had been baptised by John.

bwe@Luke:7:31 @ Jesus asked, What will I say that the people of today are like? What are they like?

bwe@Luke:7:34 @ The Son of Man came. He eats and drinks. You say, "This man eats and drinks too much! He is a friend of tax collectors and bad people!"

bwe@Luke:7:41 @ Jesus said, There was a man who used to lend money to people. Two people owed him money. One man owed him five hundred pieces of silver money. The other owed him fifty pieces.

bwe@Luke:7:49 @ Then those who were at the table with him began to say to themselves, Who is this man? He even forgives people for the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Luke:8:1 @ Soon after this, Jesus went through the cities and towns. He told the people Gods word about the good news of the kingdom of God. The twelve disciples were with him.

bwe@Luke:8:4 @ Many people came to him from many towns. Then he told them a story.

bwe@Luke:8:5 @ He said, A man went out to sow his seed. As he sowed it, some seed fell on the road. People stepped on the seed. Birds ate it.

bwe@Luke:8:10 @ He said to them, You can learn the secret things about the kingdom of God. But other people must have stories. They will look, but they will not see. They will hear, but they will not understand.

bwe@Luke:8:12 @ Some seeds fell on the road. They are like the people who hear the word of God. Then the devil comes and takes the word out of their hearts. He does not want them to believe and be saved.

bwe@Luke:8:13 @ Some seeds fell on the stones. They are like people who are glad when they hear the word. But it does not go down deep into their hearts. They believe for a short time. But when they have trouble they stop believing.

bwe@Luke:8:14 @ Some seeds fell among the weeds. They are like people who hear the word. But they think about the things of this world. They want to get money and things to be happy in this life. As they go on in life, these things push the message out of their hearts and no good comes from them.

bwe@Luke:8:15 @ Some seeds fell on good ground. They are like people who hear the word and remember it. Their hearts are honest and good. These people keep on believing, and much good comes from them.

bwe@Luke:8:16 @ No person lights a lamp and covers it with a basket or puts it under a bed. But he puts it on the place for a lamp. Then people who come in can see the light.

bwe@Luke:8:19 @ The mother of Jesus and his brothers came to him. They could not reach him because there were so many people around him.

bwe@Luke:8:21 @ But he said to them, These people who hear the word of God and do it, they are my mother and my brothers.

bwe@Luke:8:26 @ They came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarene people. Their country is on the other side of the sea from Galilee.

bwe@Luke:8:29 @ He said this because Jesus had told the bad spirit to come out of the man. Many times the spirit had taken hold of the man. People had guarded him. They had tied him with chains and strong ropes. But he broke the chains and ropes. The bad spirit drove him into the desert.

bwe@Luke:8:34 @ The men who cared for the pigs saw what happened. They ran and told it to the people in the town and in the country.

bwe@Luke:8:35 @ The people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus. They saw the man from whom the bad spirits had gone. He was sitting near the feet of Jesus. He had clothes on and was not crazy any more. The people were afraid.

bwe@Luke:8:36 @ Those who had seen it told the people how the man had been saved from the bad spirits.

bwe@Luke:8:37 @ All the people in the country around the Gadarenes asked Jesus to go away from them to some other place. They were very much afraid. So Jesus got into a boat and went back.

bwe@Luke:8:39 @ He said, Go home and tell the people what God has done for you. So the man went away and told the people all through the town what Jesus had done for him.

bwe@Luke:8:40 @ When Jesus came back, the people were very glad to see him. They were all waiting for him.

bwe@Luke:8:42 @ He had only one daughter She was about twelve years old. And she was dying. Many people went with Jesus and pushed against him.

bwe@Luke:8:45 @ Jesus said, Who touched me? Everyone said, Not I! Peter said, Master, the people are all around you and push you.

bwe@Luke:8:47 @ The woman saw that he knew about her. So she came trembling and bowed down in front of him. She told him in front of all the people why she had touched him. She told him that she had been healed right away.

bwe@Luke:8:51 @ When Jesus came to the house, he did not let the people go in with him. The only people he let go in were Peter, John and James, and the girls father and mother.

bwe@Luke:8:52 @ All the people were crying and making a lot of noise because she had died. But he said, Do not cry. She is not dead, but sleeping.

bwe@Luke:9:1 @ Jesus called his twelve disciples together. He gave them power over all the bad spirits, and power to heal sick people.

bwe@Luke:9:2 @ He sent them out to tell people about the kingdom of God and to heal sick people.

bwe@Luke:9:5 @ Some people might not take you in. When you leave that town, shake the dust off your feet. That will be a sign to them.

bwe@Luke:9:6 @ The disciples left and went through the towns. They told the good news and healed people everywhere.

bwe@Luke:9:7 @ Herod the ruler heard about all that was happening. He did not know what to think. Some people said John the Baptizer had risen from death.

bwe@Luke:9:8 @ Some people said Elijah had come back. And other people said that one of the old prophets of God had risen from death.

bwe@Luke:9:11 @ But the people found out and they followed him. He was glad to see them and talked to them about Gods kingdom. He healed those who were sick.

bwe@Luke:9:12 @ When it was late in the day, the twelve disciples came to him. They said, Send the people away so they can go to the towns and the farms to sleep and get something to eat. This is a lonely place.

bwe@Luke:9:13 @ But Jesus said to them, You give them food to eat. They said, All we have is five loaves of bread and two fish. Shall we go and buy food for all these people?

bwe@Luke:9:14 @ There were about five thousand men. He said to his disciples, Tell the people to sit down in groups of fifty.

bwe@Luke:9:15 @ They did what he said, and they made all the people sit down.

bwe@Luke:9:16 @ He took the five loaves of bread and the two fish. He looked up to heaven and thanked God for them. Then he broke the bread. He gave it to the disciples to give to the people.

bwe@Luke:9:18 @ One day Jesus was alone talking to God. His disciples were there too. He asked them, Who do people say I am?

bwe@Luke:9:19 @ They answered, Some people say you are John the Baptizer. Others say you are Elijah. And others say that one of the old prophets of God has risen from death.

bwe@Luke:9:22 @ Then he went on to say, The Son of Man will have much trouble. The leaders of the people, the chief priests, and the scribes will not believe him. He will be killed. On the third day he will be raised from death.

bwe@Luke:9:23 @ And He said to all the people, If anyone wants to come with me, he must leave what he himself wants to do. Every day he must take up his cross <FI>be ready to die<Fi> and come with me.

bwe@Luke:9:27 @ I tell you the truth. Some people are standing here who will not die before they see the kingdom of God.

bwe@Luke:9:37 @ The next day they came down the hill. Many people met him.

bwe@Luke:9:41 @ Jesus said, You people today do not believe. You have turned away from God. How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.

bwe@Luke:9:43 @ All the people were surprised to see that God has so much power. While the people were wondering about everything Jesus did, he talked to his disciples.

bwe@Luke:9:49 @ John answered, Master, we saw a man driving bad spirits out of people. He was using your name. We told him to stop because he is not one of us.

bwe@Luke:9:52 @ They went to one of the towns of the Samaritan people to get ready for him.

bwe@Luke:9:53 @ But the people would not take him in because he was going to Jerusalem.

bwe@Luke:9:56 @ The Son of Man did not come to kill people, but to save them. And they went on to another town.

bwe@Luke:9:60 @ Jesus said to him, Let those who are dead bury their own dead people. As for you, go and tell people about Gods kingdom.

bwe@Luke:10:2 @ He said to them, The harvest is much, but there are not many people to gather it. So talk to the Lord of this harvest and ask him to send out people to his harvest.

bwe@Luke:10:3 @ Go on your way now. I am sending you out among people. You will be like sheep among bad animals.

bwe@Luke:10:7 @ Stay in that house. Eat and drink what the people give you. The one who works should have his pay for it. Do not move from one house to another house.

bwe@Luke:10:9 @ Heal the sick people in the town. Tell the people, "The kingdom of God has come to you."

bwe@Luke:10:11 @ Say to the people, "We wipe off even the dust of the town that is on our feet. This will be a sign to you. But remember this, the kingdom of God has come."

bwe@Luke:10:12 @ I tell you this. On the day when people are judged, they will be punished more than the people in the city of Sodom.

bwe@Luke:10:13 @ Chorazin, you will have trouble! Bethsaida, you will have trouble! If the big works I did in you had been done in the cities of Tyre and Sidon, the people there would have stopped doing bad things long ago. They would wear the clothes people wear to show they are sad, and would sit in ashes.

bwe@Luke:10:14 @ But on the day when people are judged you will be punished more than the people in the cities of Tyre and Sidon.

bwe@Luke:10:21 @ At that same time the Holy Spirit made Jesus very happy. Jesus said, Father, you are Lord of heaven and earth. I thank you because you have hidden these things from people who are wise and know many things. But you have shown them to people who are like children. Yes, Father. That was the way you wanted it.

bwe@Luke:10:23 @ Then Jesus turned to his disciples and said to them alone, God is blessing the eyes of people who see what you see!

bwe@Luke:11:14 @ Jesus was driving a bad spirit out of a man who could not talk. When the spirit left him, the man could talk. The people were surprised.

bwe@Luke:11:16 @ Other people wanted to test Jesus. They asked him to show them a sign from heaven.

bwe@Luke:11:19 @ If I drive out bad spirits by the help of Beelzebub, by whose help do your own people drive them out? Your own people will judge you for this!

bwe@Luke:11:27 @ As he said this, a woman among the people called out, Happy is your mother who gave birth to you, and fed you as a baby.

bwe@Luke:11:29 @ More and more people were coming. He started to talk. He said, People today are bad. They want a sign. No sign will be given them but the sign of Jonah the prophet of God.

bwe@Luke:11:30 @ Jonah was a sign to the men in the city of Nineveh. In the same way the Son of Man will be a sign to the people today.

bwe@Luke:11:31 @ When the people are judged, the Queen from the South will stand up and speak against men who live today. She came a long way to hear the wise words of Solomon. The one who is here is greater than Solomon.

bwe@Luke:11:32 @ When people are judged, the men of Nineveh will stand up and speak against the people of today. They stopped their wrong ways when Jonah told them Gods word. And the one who is here is greater than Jonah.

bwe@Luke:11:33 @ No person lights a lamp and hides it in a hole or puts it under a basket. But he puts it on a place for a lamp. Then people who come in can see the light.

bwe@Luke:11:43 @ You Pharisees will have trouble! In the meeting houses you want to sit in the front seats. And in the market you want people to greet you.

bwe@Luke:11:46 @ Jesus said, You men will have trouble also! You put heavy loads on peoples backs. But you yourselves will not put up one finger to help carry the loads.

bwe@Luke:11:50 @ So the people who are living now will be punished for all the blood of the prophets of God that is on the ground since the world was made.

bwe@Luke:11:51 @ I mean all the blood from the time of Abel to the time of Zechariah. (He was killed between the holy table and the temple.) Yes, I tell you. The people who are living now will be punished for all of it.

bwe@Luke:11:52 @ You teachers of Gods law will have trouble! You have taken away the key of the door where people can go in and know what is true. You yourselves did not go in, and you stopped those who were going in.

bwe@Luke:12:1 @ Many thousands of people had gathered. They stepped on each other. Jesus began to talk to the disciples. He said, Take care. Do not let the yeast of the Pharisees spoil you. They are not true to themselves.

bwe@Luke:12:4 @ You are my friends. I tell you, do not fear people who can kill your bodies. After that they cannot do anything more to you.

bwe@Luke:12:8 @ And I tell you. If anyone tells people that he knows me, the Son of Man will also tell the angels of God that he knows him.

bwe@Luke:12:9 @ But if anyone tells people he does not know me, the Son of Man will also tell the angels of God that he does not know that person.

bwe@Luke:12:13 @ One of the people in the crowd said, Teacher, tell my brother to divide with me the things my father left when he died.

bwe@Luke:12:15 @ Then he said to the people, Take care. Do not be greedy in any way to get more and more things. Even if a man has much more than he needs, it cannot give him life.

bwe@Luke:12:30 @ All the people who are not Jews work for these things. Your Father in heaven knows that you need them.

bwe@Luke:12:33 @ Sell what you have and give it to poor people. Make for yourselves money bags that will not wear out. Keep the things you like in heaven. They will not be lost there. People cannot go in and steal them, and insects cannot spoil them.

bwe@Luke:12:41 @ Peter said, Lord, are you telling this story for us or for all the people?

bwe@Luke:12:48 @ But if a servant did not know and did something bad, he will be beaten only a little. To whom much has been given, from him much will be asked. When people give much to anyone, they will ask more from him.

bwe@Luke:12:54 @ Jesus also said to the people, When you see a cloud coming up in the west, you say right away, "Rain is coming." And it comes.

bwe@Luke:13:1 @ Some people were there at that time who told Jesus what Pilate had done. He had killed some of the people of Galilee and put their blood with the blood of their sacrifices to God.

bwe@Luke:13:2 @ Jesus answered, Do you think it was because they were worse than all the other people in Galilee?

bwe@Luke:13:14 @ The ruler of the meeting house was angry because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath day. He said to the people, There are six days to work. You should come to be healed on those days, and not on the Sabbath day.

bwe@Luke:13:17 @ When he said that, all those who had talked against him were ashamed. All the other people were very glad for all the wonderful things Jesus did.

bwe@Luke:13:22 @ Jesus went through the towns and villages on the way to Jerusalem. He was teaching the people as he went.

bwe@Luke:13:23 @ A man asked him, Sir, will only a few people be saved?

bwe@Luke:13:29 @ People will come from the east, from the west, from the north, and from the south. They will sit down to eat in the kingdom of God.

bwe@Luke:13:30 @ Yes, some people who are last will be first, and some who are first will be last.

bwe@Luke:13:32 @ He said, Go and tell that fox, "I drive bad spirits out of people and heal people. I do it today and tomorrow. On the third day I will finish what I am doing."

bwe@Luke:13:34 @ O Jerusalem, Jerusalem! You kill the prophets of God. You throw stones to kill men who are sent to you. How often I have wanted to gather your people together as a mother hen gathers her little ones under her wings. But you would not come!

bwe@Luke:14:7 @ Jesus told a story to the people who were asked to eat at the house. He saw that they chose to sit at the best places.

bwe@Luke:14:10 @ But when you are asked to go to a wedding, go and sit down in the last place. Then when the man who called you comes, he will say to you, "Friend, come to a better place." Then all the people who sit at the table will see how he respects you.

bwe@Luke:14:12 @ Then Jesus said to the man who had asked him to come, When you make a dinner or a feast, do not ask your friends, or your brothers, or the people in your family, or your rich neighbours. They will repay you by making a dinner for you.

bwe@Luke:14:13 @ But when you make a dinner, ask the people who are poor, hurt, lame, or blind.

bwe@Luke:14:14 @ You will be made happy because they cannot pay you. You will be repaid when all good people are raised from death.

bwe@Luke:14:16 @ But Jesus said to him, A man made a big feast and asked many people to come.

bwe@Luke:14:17 @ When the feast was ready, he sent his servant to tell the people who had been asked. He said, "Come. Everything is ready."

bwe@Luke:14:18 @ But the people all began to make excuses. The first one said, I have bought a farm. I must go and see it. I beg you, excuse me from the feast."

bwe@Luke:14:21 @ The servant came and told his master. Then the master was very angry. He said to his servant, "Go out quickly. Go on all the streets in the city. Bring here people who are poor, hurt, blind, or lame."

bwe@Luke:14:22 @ The servant came back and said, "Sir, I have done what you told me to do. There is still room for more people."

bwe@Luke:14:23 @ Then the master said to the servant, "Go out onto the roads and behind bushes. Find people and make them come in so that my house will be full.

bwe@Luke:14:26 @ Many people were going with Jesus. He turned to them and said, If any man comes to me, he must hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sister. Yes, he must hate himself too. If he does not, he cannot be my disciple.

bwe@Luke:14:29 @ If you do not have enough money, you will not be able to finish it after you have made the foundation. Then all the people who see it will laugh at you.

bwe@Luke:14:35 @ It is not good for the land or the dirt pile. People throw it away. Everyone who has ears to hear, listen!"

bwe@Luke:15:1 @ The tax collectors and bad people all came close to Jesus to hear him.

bwe@Luke:15:2 @ The Pharisees and scribes did not like it. And they said to each other, This man is glad to have bad people come. He eats with them.

bwe@Luke:15:7 @ I tell you, the angels in heaven will be glad like that when one bad person stops doing wrong things. The angels will be more glad about that one person than about ninety-nine good people who do not need to change their ways.

bwe@Luke:16:1 @ Jesus also talked to his disciples. He said, A rich man had a manager in charge of his things. People told the rich man that the manager was wasting his things.

bwe@Luke:16:4 @ I know what I will do. Then, when I lose my job, these people will take me into their own homes."

bwe@Luke:16:8 @ Then the master praised the manager who did wrong. He praised him because he did what was wise. The people of this world are wiser than the people who have the Light. They know how to get along with people like themselves.

bwe@Luke:16:9 @ I tell you this. Money may be a wrong thing, but use it to make friends for yourselves. Then when your money is spent, they will be glad to see you come into that place where people live for ever.

bwe@Luke:16:23 @ He was in great pain in the world of dead people. He looked up and saw Abraham far away. With him was Lazarus.

bwe@Luke:17:1 @ Jesus said to his disciples, People will make other people do wrong. But the person who makes another person do wrong will have trouble.

bwe@Luke:17:17 @ Then Jesus asked, Were not ten people healed? Where are the other nine?

bwe@Luke:17:21 @ People will not be able to say, "Look, here it is!" or "There it is! That is because the kingdom of God is inside you.

bwe@Luke:17:23 @ People will say to you, "Look! Here he is!" or "Look! There he is!" But do not go out or follow them.

bwe@Luke:17:25 @ But first he will have much trouble. The people who are living now will not believe in him.

bwe@Luke:17:27 @ People ate and drank. They married and gave their daughters to be married. All this went on until the day when Noah went into his house built on a boat. Then there was much water and all the people outside the boat died.

bwe@Luke:17:28 @ It was the same way in the time of Lot. People ate and drank. They bought and sold. They planted and built.

bwe@Luke:17:29 @ Then one day Lot went out of the city of Sodom. Then on that day fire and burning rock came down from the sky and killed all the people.

bwe@Luke:17:34 @ I tell you, on that night two people may be in one bed. One will be taken away and the other will be left.

bwe@Luke:18:2 @ He said, There was a judge in a city. He did not respect God or care about people.

bwe@Luke:18:4 @ For a long time he would not do it. But after a time he said, "I do not respect God or care about people.

bwe@Luke:18:7 @ When the people whom God has chosen call to him day and night, he will save them from their enemies. He may let them wait a time.

bwe@Luke:18:8 @ But I tell you, he will save them from their enemies soon. But when the Son of Man comes, will he find any people who believe in him?

bwe@Luke:18:9 @ There were some people who thought they were very good. And they thought that other people were not good. Jesus told this story to them.

bwe@Luke:18:15 @ People brought even small children to Jesus. They wanted him to put his hands on them. When the disciples saw it, they tried to stop the people.

bwe@Luke:18:16 @ But Jesus called them to him and said, Let the children come to me. Do not try to stop them. The kingdom of God belongs to people like them.

bwe@Luke:18:22 @ When Jesus heard that, he said to him, You need one thing more. Sell everything you have. Give the money to poor people. You will be rich in heaven. Then come and go with me.

bwe@Luke:18:24 @ Jesus looked at him and said, It is very hard for rich people to enter the kingdom of God!

bwe@Luke:18:36 @ He heard many people passing by. He asked, Why are so many people passing here?

bwe@Luke:18:39 @ The people in front said, Be quiet! But he shouted louder and said, Son of David! Help me!

bwe@Luke:18:43 @ Right then he was able to see. He went with Jesus and he praised God. All the people saw it and they all praised God too.

bwe@Luke:19:3 @ He wanted to see who Jesus was but he could not see him because he was a short man and there were many people around him.

bwe@Luke:19:7 @ When all the people saw this, they did not like it. They said, He has gone to visit a bad man.

bwe@Luke:19:8 @ Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, Look, Lord, I will give to the poor people half of all I have. And if I have cheated anyone, I will give him back four times as much as I took.

bwe@Luke:19:11 @ While they were listening to this, he started to tell them a story. He did so because they were near Jerusalem and the people thought that the kingdom of God would begin right away.

bwe@Luke:19:14 @ His people hated him. They chose some men and sent them after him to tell the king, "We do not want this man to rule over us."

bwe@Luke:19:27 @ But where are those people who hate me and did not want me to rule over them? Bring them here and kill them right here in front of me."

bwe@Luke:19:36 @ As he was riding along, people spread their coats on the road.

bwe@Luke:19:37 @ He came near the top of the hill called the Mount of Olives. Then all the people who believed in him began to be happy. They sang out loudly, and praised God in a loud voice for all the big works they had seen.

bwe@Luke:19:39 @ Some of the Pharisees who were among the people said to Jesus, Teacher, tell your disciples to stop saying that.

bwe@Luke:19:43 @ The time will come when the people who hate you will put a wall all around you. They will shut you up and keep you in on every side.

bwe@Luke:19:44 @ They will break you down to the ground. They will kill the people within you. They will not leave one stone of your houses on top of another. That will happen because you did not know the time when God was ready to help you.

bwe@Luke:19:45 @ Jesus went into the temple. He began to drive out the people who were buying and selling in the temple.

bwe@Luke:19:46 @ He said to them, It is written, "My house shall be a place where people talk with God." But you have made it a place for people who steal!

bwe@Luke:19:47 @ He taught in the temple every day. The chief priests, scribes and the leaders of the people wanted to kill him.

bwe@Luke:19:48 @ But they did not find any way they could do it. All the people stayed around to hear what Jesus said.

bwe@Luke:20:1 @ One day Jesus was teaching the people in the temple. He was telling them Gods good news. The chief priests and the scribes came to him with the leaders.

bwe@Luke:20:4 @ Who gave John the right to baptise people? Did God or did men give it to him?

bwe@Luke:20:6 @ But if we say, "Men gave him the right to do it," then the people will kill us with stones. They believe that John was a prophet of God.

bwe@Luke:20:9 @ Then Jesus began to tell the people this story. A man planted a farm. He let some men use the farm. They paid him money for the rent. Then he went to a country far away and stayed a long time.

bwe@Luke:20:19 @ The scribes and the chief priests wanted to catch Jesus right then but they feared the people. They understood that he had told this story against them.

bwe@Luke:20:26 @ They were not able to catch him in anything he said in front of the people. They were surprised at his answer and they could not say anything.

bwe@Luke:20:27 @ Some of the Sadducees came to Jesus. (They say that people do not rise from death.)

bwe@Luke:20:33 @ Now then, when people rise from death, whose wife will she be? All seven of them had married her.

bwe@Luke:20:37 @ Even Moses showed that people do rise from death. It is in his book where we read about the small tree which burned. Moses says that the Lord is the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

bwe@Luke:20:38 @ He is not the God of dead people, but of living people. All people are alive to him.

bwe@Luke:20:40 @ After that, people were afraid to ask him any more questions.

bwe@Luke:20:41 @ But Jesus asked them, How can people say that Christ is Davids son?

bwe@Luke:20:45 @ Then Jesus talked to his disciples while all the people could hear him.

bwe@Luke:20:46 @ He said, Take care. Do not let the scribes fool you. They like to walk about dressed in long gowns. They want people to greet them in the market. They want to have the front seats in the meeting houses. They want to sit in the best places at feasts.

bwe@Luke:21:1 @ Jesus looked around in the temple. He saw the place where the people put in their money. Rich people were putting in their money.

bwe@Luke:21:3 @ Jesus said, I tell you the truth. This poor woman has given more than all the other people.

bwe@Luke:21:4 @ All these people had plenty of money and they gave only a part of it. She was poor and she gave everything she had. She has nothing left to live on.

bwe@Luke:21:5 @ Some people were talking about how nice the temple looked. They talked about the fine stones and the things people gave to make the temple.

bwe@Luke:21:11 @ In some places the earth will shake very much. In many places the people will have no food to eat. And many people will be sick. There will be things to make people fear. There will be big signs in the sky.

bwe@Luke:21:12 @ But before all these things happen, people will catch you and trouble you. They will take you to the meeting houses to be judged. They will put you in prison. They will take you to kings and rulers because you are true to me.

bwe@Luke:21:16 @ Even your parents, brothers, family people, and friends will give you over to trouble. They will kill some of you.

bwe@Luke:21:17 @ All people will hate you because you are true to me.

bwe@Luke:21:21 @ Then the people in Judea must go quickly to the hills. Those who are in the city must leave it. Those who are in the country must not come into the city.

bwe@Luke:21:23 @ In those days it will be very hard for women who are to have a child. It will be very hard for mothers who have babies. There will be big trouble on the earth. God will show his anger to these people.

bwe@Luke:21:24 @ They will be killed by swords or long knives. They will be taken away as prisoners to every country. Jerusalem will be broken down by people who are not Jews. They will walk over it until the end of their allowed time.

bwe@Luke:21:25 @ There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars. And there will be much trouble for the people on earth. They will not know what to do. It will be like the sound of big waves of the sea.

bwe@Luke:21:27 @ Then people will see the sign of the Son of Man in a cloud. He will have much power and will be very great.

bwe@Luke:21:32 @ I tell you the truth. People who are living then will not die before all these things happen.

bwe@Luke:21:35 @ That day will come to all people who are living on the whole earth.

bwe@Luke:21:38 @ Early in the morning all the people came to hear him in the temple.

bwe@Luke:22:2 @ The chief priests and the scribes planned how to kill Jesus. But they feared the people.

bwe@Luke:22:6 @ He agreed. He watched for a good way to help them catch Jesus when there were not too many people around.

bwe@Luke:22:25 @ Jesus said to them, The kings of countries make their people obey them. Those who rule give themselves a good name.

bwe@Luke:22:37 @ The holy writings say, "He was counted as one of the bad people." And I tell you, that means me. And the things that are written about me must happen to me.

bwe@Luke:22:47 @ As Jesus was saying this, many men came. One of the twelve disciples, named Judas, was leading the people. He came near Jesus to kiss him.

bwe@Luke:22:52 @ The chief priests, the captains of the temple, and the leaders of the people had come to catch Jesus. He said to them, Have you come to take me with swords and sticks, the way you catch a man who steals?

bwe@Luke:22:66 @ In the morning the leaders of the people, the chief priests and scribes met together. They took Jesus to their court.

bwe@Luke:23:1 @ Then all the people got up and took Jesus to Pilate.

bwe@Luke:23:2 @ They began to make a complaint against him. They said, This man is leading our people to do wrong. He says we should not pay taxes to Caesar. He says that he is Christ, a King.

bwe@Luke:23:4 @ Pilate said to the chief priests and to the people, I find nothing wrong in this man.

bwe@Luke:23:5 @ But they said all the more, He troubles the people by his teaching. He has been teaching people in all the country of Judea. He began in Galilee and has come as far as this city.

bwe@Luke:23:13 @ Pilate then called the chief priests, and the rulers, and the people.

bwe@Luke:23:14 @ He said to them, You brought this man to me. You said he is leading your people to do wrong. I have asked questions here in front of you. I have found nothing wrong in this man.

bwe@Luke:23:19 @ (Barabbas had been put in prison because he led some people who had been fighting in the city. He had killed a man.)

bwe@Luke:23:20 @ Pilate talked to the people again. He wanted to let Jesus go free.

bwe@Luke:23:25 @ He let the other man go free. (He was the one who had been put in prison because he fought and had killed a man. He was the one the people asked Pilate to let go free.) And Pilate did to Jesus what they wanted him to do.

bwe@Luke:23:27 @ Many people followed him. Women cried and were sorry for him.

bwe@Luke:23:29 @ The time will come when people will say, "Happy are the women who have no children or who have never had a child."

bwe@Luke:23:30 @ Then people will begin to say to the big hills, "Fall on us." They will say to the small hills, "Hide us."

bwe@Luke:23:31 @ If this is what people do when the wood is new, what will they do when it is old?

bwe@Luke:23:35 @ The people stood around watching. But the rulers made fun of him. They said, He saved other people. He should save himself if he is Gods Christ, Gods chosen one!

bwe@Luke:23:48 @ Many people were around there to look on. When they saw what happened, they all went home beating their chests <FI>because they were sad<Fi>.

bwe@Luke:23:51 @ He had not wanted the people to do what they did. He was looking for the kingdom of God. He was from a town of the Jews, called Arimathea.

bwe@Luke:24:5 @ The women were afraid and bowed their faces down to the ground. The men said to them, Why do you look for a living person among dead people?

bwe@Luke:24:9 @ They left the grave and went back. They told all these things to the eleven disciples and to all the other people.

bwe@Luke:24:18 @ Jesus said, What things?" They said, All that has happened to Jesus of Nazareth. He was a prophet of God. He had power to do big works and to teach the people. He was respected by God and all the people.

bwe@Luke:24:20 @ But we were hoping that he was the one who would free the people of Israel. But that is not all. This is the third day since they did it.

bwe@Luke:24:32 @ They got up right then and went back to Jerusalem. There they found the eleven disciples together. Some other people were with them.

bwe@Luke:24:33 @ These people said, The Lord has really risen! He came to Simon!

bwe@Luke:24:44 @ Men will talk in his name to people in all countries. They will tell them to stop their wrong ways and ask to be forgiven. They will begin in Jerusalem.

bwe@Luke:24:45 @ You are the men who have seen these things, and will tell people about them.

bwe@John:1:4 @ Life was in the Word. That life was Light for people.

bwe@John:1:7 @ He came to talk about the Light, so that all people might believe in the Light by what he said.

bwe@John:1:11 @ He came into the world that was his own, but his own people did not receive him.

bwe@John:1:12 @ But there were people who did believe in his name. They did receive him. He gave all those who received him and believed him the right to become children of God.

bwe@John:1:20 @ He did not hide the truth, but he told people plainly. He said, I am not the Christ.

bwe@John:1:22 @ Then those priests said, Who are you? We want to give an answer to the people who sent us. What do you say about yourself?

bwe@John:1:24 @ It was the Pharisees who had sent these people to John.

bwe@John:1:26 @ John answered, I baptize people in water. But there is a man standing among you whom you do not know.

bwe@John:1:31 @ I myself did not know who he was. But I came and baptized people in water so that the people of Israel would know who he was.

bwe@John:1:33 @ I myself did not know who he was. But he who sent me to baptize people in water told me. He said, "You will see the Spirit coming from the sky on a man. That man will baptize people in the Holy Spirit."

bwe@John:1:47 @ Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him. He said, Here is a man who is truly of Israel. He does not fool people.

bwe@John:2:3 @ The people needed more wine. Then Jesus mother said to him, They have no wine.

bwe@John:2:10 @ He said, Other people give the good wine at the beginning of the feast. When people have had all they want, then they give the wine which is not so good. But you have kept the good wine until now.

bwe@John:2:14 @ In the temple he found people buying and selling things. They were selling cows, sheep, and doves. Others were sitting at tables changing money for the people.

bwe@John:2:15 @ Jesus tied some pieces of cord together to make a whip. Then he drove out all the people who were buying and selling in the temple. And he drove out the sheep and the cows. He threw down the tables of the money changers and their money.

bwe@John:2:16 @ He said to the people who sold doves, Take these things out of here. Do not make my Fathers house into a market place.

bwe@John:2:23 @ Many people believed in Jesus name when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast. They believed in him because they saw the big works he did.

bwe@John:2:25 @ He knew what all people are like. He did not need anyone to tell him about any person, because he knew what was in a persons heart.

bwe@John:3:10 @ Jesus answered, Are you a teacher of the people of Israel and you do not know this?

bwe@John:3:19 @ Light came into the world. But people wanted to be in the dark because they did wrong things. They did not want the light. That is why they are judged.

bwe@John:3:20 @ Everyone who does wrong things hates light. He does not come to the light because he is afraid people will see what he does and will say it is bad.

bwe@John:3:21 @ But everyone who does what is right comes to the light. He wants people to see that God helps him to do what is right.

bwe@John:3:22 @ After this, Jesus and his disciples came into the country of Judea. Jesus stayed there with them and baptized people.

bwe@John:3:23 @ John was also baptizing people in the river at Aenon, near the town of Salim. There was much water. People came to him and were baptized.

bwe@John:3:26 @ They came to John and said, Teacher, there was a man with you on the other side of the Jordan River. You were telling people about him. Now he himself is baptizing and all the people are going to him.

bwe@John:3:31 @ The one who comes from heaven is greater than all other people. The one who is of the earth talks about things on earth. So the one who comes from heaven is greater than all.

bwe@John:4:1 @ The Pharisees heard that Jesus was getting people to follow him and was baptizing them. (Jesus disciples baptized them, not he himself.) He now had more followers than John.

bwe@John:4:8 @ The woman said to Jesus, Why do you ask me for a drink of water? You are a Jew and I am from Samaria. (The Jews are not friends with the people of Samaria.)

bwe@John:4:9 @ Jesus answered her, You do not know what God gives people. And you do not know who is asking you for a drink. If you knew him, then it is you who would have asked for a drink of water. He would give you living water.

bwe@John:4:19 @ Our fathers came to this mountain to worship God. But you people say Jerusalem is the place people must go to worship him.

bwe@John:4:22 @ But the time is coming, yes, the time is here already, when those who worship God will worship him in spirit and in a true way. My Father is looking for that kind of people to worship him.

bwe@John:4:28 @ She said to the people, Come, I will show you a man who has told me everything I have done. Can this be the Christ?

bwe@John:4:29 @ The people left the town and went to him.

bwe@John:4:37 @ I sent you to gather what you did not help to plant. Other people have worked hard and you have been helped through their work.

bwe@John:4:38 @ Many of the people of the town believed in Jesus because of what the woman told them. She said, He told me everything I have done.

bwe@John:4:39 @ When the people from Samaria came, they begged him to stay with them. So he stayed with them for two days.

bwe@John:4:40 @ Many more people believed in Jesus because of his own word.

bwe@John:4:43 @ Jesus himself said, No prophet is honoured by the people in his own country.

bwe@John:4:44 @ When he came to Galilee, the people of that country were glad to see him. They had seen all the things he did when he was at the feast in Jerusalem. They had been at the feast also.

bwe@John:5:2 @ In Jerusalem, near the Sheep Gate, there is a wide water hole. The Jews called this water hole Bethesda. It had five places with roofs for people to stand under.

bwe@John:5:3 @ Many sick people were lying on these places. Some of them were blind. Some were lame. Some were very thin and stiff so that they could not move by themselves. All of them were waiting for the water to move.

bwe@John:5:13 @ The man who was healed said, I do not know who he is. Many people were at the place and Jesus had gone away.

bwe@John:5:21 @ My Father raises people who were dead, and gives them life. So his Son gives life to anyone he wants to.

bwe@John:5:23 @ He did this so that all people would respect the Son, just as they respect his Father. My Father has sent his Son. Anyone who does not respect his Son does not respect the Father.

bwe@John:5:25 @ I tell you the truth. The time is coming. Yes, the time is here when the dead people will hear the voice of the Son of God. Those who hear his voice will live.

bwe@John:5:30 @ I have no right to do anything myself. I judge the way I am told to judge. The way I judge people is right. I do not do what I myself want to do, but I do what my Father wants me to do. He sent me.

bwe@John:5:41 @ I do not want people to call me great.

bwe@John:6:2 @ Many people followed him because they saw the big works he had done in healing the sick people.

bwe@John:6:5 @ When Jesus looked up, he saw many people coming to him. He said to Philip, Where shall we buy food for these people to eat?

bwe@John:6:9 @ He said, A boy here has five loaves of bread and two small fish. But what can that little bit of food do for so many people?

bwe@John:6:10 @ Jesus said, Tell the people to sit down. Much grass was there. The number of men who sat down was about five thousand.

bwe@John:6:11 @ Then Jesus took the bread and thanked God for it. He gave it to the disciples and they divided it among those who were sitting. He did the same thing with the fish. The people had all they wanted.

bwe@John:6:13 @ They gathered all the pieces of the five loaves. Twelve baskets full were left over after all the people had eaten enough.

bwe@John:6:15 @ The people wanted to take Jesus by force to make him a king. When he saw this, he left again and went on the hill by himself.

bwe@John:6:22 @ The people who stayed back on the land had seen one boat only. They had seen the disciples get in it and go away without Jesus.

bwe@John:6:24 @ The next day the people saw that Jesus and his disciples were not there. Then they went to Capernaum in boats to look for Jesus.

bwe@John:6:45 @ The prophets wrote, "God will teach all people." So then, every person who listens to his words and learns what he says, he will come to me.

bwe@John:6:59 @ Jesus was in the meeting house in Capernaum when he was teaching people these things.

bwe@John:6:64 @ But even so, some of you do not believe me. Jesus knew right from the beginning which ones of them would not believe. He knew who was going to give him over to people who hated him.

bwe@John:6:71 @ Jesus was talking about Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. Judas was the one who was going to give him over to people who hated him. Judas was one of these twelve disciples.

bwe@John:7:4 @ When a person wants people to know about him, he does not hide what he is doing. If you are doing these big things, let the world see you.

bwe@John:7:7 @ The people of the world cannot hate you. But they hate me because I say what they do is wrong.

bwe@John:7:10 @ After his brothers went to the feast, Jesus went also. He did not go with the other people, but he went by himself.

bwe@John:7:12 @ People were talking among themselves about Jesus. Some said, He is a good man. Others said, No. He is leading people to do wrong things.

bwe@John:7:14 @ When the feast was half finished, Jesus went to the temple and taught the people.

bwe@John:7:16 @ Jesus answered the people, I am not teaching you my teaching. It is the teaching of the one who sent me.

bwe@John:7:20 @ The people answered Jesus, A bad spirit is in you! Who is trying to kill you?

bwe@John:7:25 @ Some people from Jerusalem said, Is not this the person they are trying to kill?

bwe@John:7:30 @ Then the people wanted to catch him. But no one put a hand on him. It was not yet the time for that.

bwe@John:7:31 @ Many of the people believed in Jesus. They said, When Christ comes, will he do greater works than this man has done?

bwe@John:7:32 @ The Pharisees heard what the people said about him. The chief priests and the Pharisees sent soldiers to catch him.

bwe@John:7:35 @ The Jews said to one another, Where will he go that we cannot find him? Will he go to our people who are living in other countries? Will he teach them?

bwe@John:7:40 @ When some of the people heard this they said, Truly, this is the Prophet.

bwe@John:7:41 @ Other people said, This is the Christ. But some said, The Christ will not come from Galilee. Shall Christ come out of Galilee?

bwe@John:7:43 @ The people did not all say the same thing about him.

bwe@John:7:49 @ These poor people do not know the law. They will die!

bwe@John:8:2 @ Early the next morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him. He sat down and taught them.

bwe@John:8:5 @ The law of Moses tells us that the people who do that should be killed with stones. What do you say?

bwe@John:8:9 @ When the people heard what he said, they went out, one by one. The oldest one went out first. Jesus was left alone with the woman in front of him.

bwe@John:8:10 @ Jesus looked up and said to her, Woman, where are the people? Has no one judged you?

bwe@John:8:12 @ Then Jesus talked to the people in the temple. He said, I am the Light of the world. The one who comes with me will never walk in the dark, but he will have light that gives life.

bwe@John:8:15 @ You judge in the way people judge matters. I do not judge any person.

bwe@John:8:17 @ Even in your law it says that when two people say the same thing, it is true.

bwe@John:8:27 @ The people did not understand that Jesus was talking to them about his Father.

bwe@John:8:30 @ Many people believed in Jesus while he was talking this way.

bwe@John:8:34 @ Jesus answered them, I tell you the truth. People who do wrong things are not free. They become a slave of the wrong things they do.

bwe@John:8:44 @ The bad spirit, the devil, is your real father. You gladly do the wrong things he wants you to do. From the beginning he killed people. He has nothing to do with what is true. His way is to tell lies. He himself is a liar and all lying comes from him.

bwe@John:8:55 @ But you do not know God. I know him. If I say, "I do not know him," I am a liar, just as you people are. But I know him and I obey his word.

bwe@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered, It was not that he or his parents did any wrong thing. But it was so that people would see what God will do in him.

bwe@John:9:8 @ His neighbours and other people had seen him when he was blind. They said, Is not this the same man who used to sit here and beg?

bwe@John:9:9 @ Some people said, Yes, this is the same man. Others said, He is like that man. But the man himself said, I am that man.

bwe@John:9:31 @ We know that God does not listen to bad people. But God listens to the person who shows him respect and who obeys him.

bwe@John:9:35 @ Jesus heard that the people had put him out. When he found him, he said, Do you believe in the Son of God?

bwe@John:9:39 @ Jesus said, I came into the world so that people may be judged. I came so that those who are blind may see. And I came so that those who see may become blind.

bwe@John:9:41 @ Jesus answered them, If you agreed that you were blind, you would not be bad people. But you say, "We can see." So then you are still bad people.

bwe@John:10:8 @ All those who came before me are bad people and steal things. They came to steal the sheep. But the sheep did not listen to them.

bwe@John:10:10 @ The thief comes only to steal the sheep and to kill them and spoil them. I have come so that people may live and that they may enjoy life to the full.

bwe@John:10:12 @ Some people work for pay. The one who does that is not the one who really cares. The sheep do not belong to him. When he sees a bad animal coming, he will leave the sheep and run away. He will let the animal take the sheep and make the sheep run away.

bwe@John:10:21 @ But others said, A person who has a bad spirit in him does not say the things this man says. Can a bad spirit make blind people see?

bwe@John:10:40 @ He went away again to the other side of the Jordan River. He went to the place where John <FI>the Baptizer<Fi> was when he first baptized people. Jesus stayed there for a while.

bwe@John:10:41 @ Many people came to him there. They said, John himself did not do any big work. But everything that John said about this man is true.

bwe@John:10:42 @ Many people believed on Jesus there.

bwe@John:11:4 @ Jesus heard the message. He said, The man is sick, but he will not die from it. But this will show people that God is great, and his Son also.

bwe@John:11:24 @ Martha said, I know that he will rise when the dead people are raised up on the last day.

bwe@John:11:25 @ Jesus said, I am the one who will raise people up and give them life. The person who believes in me will live, even though he has died.

bwe@John:11:42 @ I know that you always hear me. But I have said this so that the people who are standing here might believe that you have sent me.

bwe@John:11:44 @ Out came the dead man! The cloth that they had buried him in was tied around his hands and feet. Another small cloth was tied around his face. Jesus said to the people, Take off the cloths and free him!

bwe@John:11:50 @ You do not understand. It is better for us if one person dies for the people. Then the whole nation will not be broken down.

bwe@John:11:51 @ He himself did not understand what he was saying. But he was the high priest that year. God spoke through him to say that Jesus should die for those people.

bwe@John:11:52 @ Jesus would die, not only for those people, but he would gather together all of Gods people who are out in different places.

bwe@John:11:55 @ The time for the Passover Feast of the Jews was near. Many people from all around the country went to Jerusalem. They had to make themselves clean according to the law before the Passover Feast.

bwe@John:11:57 @ Both the chief priest and the Pharisees had told the people, If any man knows where he is, tell us. We want to catch him.

bwe@John:12:2 @ The people made supper for Jesus. Martha helped give food for the people, and Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with Jesus.

bwe@John:12:4 @ Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, was there. He was one of the disciples, the one who was going to give Jesus over to the people who hated him.

bwe@John:12:5 @ He said, This oil is worth a years wages! Why did we not sell it and give the money to poor people?

bwe@John:12:6 @ Judas did not say this because he cared for poor people. But he used to steal. He carried the disciples money bag and he used to take money out of the bag for himself.

bwe@John:12:8 @ You will have poor people with you always. But you will not always have me with you.

bwe@John:12:12 @ The next day Jesus went to Jerusalem. Many people who were at the feast heard that he was coming.

bwe@John:12:15 @ Do not fear, people of Jerusalem. Your King is coming. He will be riding on a young donkey.

bwe@John:12:16 @ His disciples did not understand this at first. But when God had made Jesus great, then they remembered what the holy writings said about him. They remembered that people had done these things to him.

bwe@John:12:17 @ Many people were with Jesus when he called Lazarus out of the grave and raised him from death. They had talked about what he did.

bwe@John:12:18 @ That is why many people went out to meet Jesus. They had heard about the big work he did.

bwe@John:12:19 @ The Pharisees said to each other, See, you cannot stop this thing. People everywhere are going after him.

bwe@John:12:20 @ Some of the people who came to worship God at the feast were Greek people.

bwe@John:12:29 @ Some people were standing near. When they heard the voice, they said, It is thundering. Other people said, An angel talked to him.

bwe@John:12:32 @ And as for me, if they lift me up from the earth, I will draw all people to me.

bwe@John:12:34 @ The people answered him, Our law book tells us that Christ will stay here for ever. Why do you say, "The Son of Man will be raised up from the earth"? Tell us who this Son of Man is.

bwe@John:12:36 @ Believe in the light while you have the light, so that you may be a people who have the light in you. When Jesus had said this, he left them. They did not know where he was.

bwe@John:13:1 @ Before the Passover Feast had started, Jesus saw that the time had come for him to leave this world. The time had come for him to go back to his Father. He loved his own people who were in the world. And he loved them the same way right to the end.

bwe@John:13:2 @ He and his disciples were eating together. The devil had already put it into Judas heart to give Jesus over to people who hated him. (Judas was the son of Simon Iscariot.)

bwe@John:13:11 @ Jesus knew who was going to give him over to people who hated him. That is why he said, You are not all clean.

bwe@John:13:18 @ I am not talking about all of you but I know the people I have chosen. So Gods word comes true. The holy writings say, "He who is eating my bread has turned against me."

bwe@John:13:21 @ When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in his heart. He said, I tell you the truth. One of you will give me over to people who hate me.

bwe@John:13:29 @ Judas had the money bag. Some thought that Jesus was telling him, Buy what we need for the feast, or that he wanted Judas to give something to the poor people.

bwe@John:13:35 @ This is how all people will know that you are my disciples.

bwe@John:14:27 @ Peace is what I leave for you. I give you my own peace. People of the world also say, "Peace" to you. I do not say it as they say it. Do not let anything trouble your hearts. Do not fear.

bwe@John:14:31 @ I will do what my Father tells me to do so that the people of the world may know that I love my Father. Get up now! We must go.

bwe@John:15:6 @ If any person is not in me, he is cut off like a branch and dies. People gather the dry branches and throw them into the fire to be burned.

bwe@John:15:20 @ Remember what I told you. I said, "The servant is not better than his master." If the people in the world have troubled me, they will also trouble you. If they obey me, they will also obey you.

bwe@John:16:2 @ The people will put you out of the meeting place. Yes, the time is coming when someone will kill you and think he is working for God.

bwe@John:16:8 @ When the Helper comes, he will prove this to the people of the world that they are wrong. They are wrong about what they call bad and about what they call good. He will show them how to be right with God. He will show them about Gods judgement.

bwe@John:16:20 @ I tell you the truth. You people will cry and be very sad, but the people in the world will be very glad. At first you will be sad, but after that you will not be sad. You will be glad.

bwe@John:17:2 @ You have given your Son power over all people. So all those you have given him will live for ever.

bwe@John:17:9 @ It is these men I am asking you for. I am not asking you for the people of the world. But I am asking for those you gave me, because they belong to you.

bwe@John:17:20 @ I do not ask this for these people only; I ask it also for the people who will believe in me when they hear what these people say.

bwe@John:17:21 @ I do this so that the people will all be one. That is the same way with us. You, my Father, belong to me and I belong to you. I ask that they also may be joined to us. Then the world will believe that you have sent me.

bwe@John:17:24 @ Father, I want the people that you have given me to be with me. Then they will see that you made me great, because you loved me before you made the world.

bwe@John:17:25 @ Father, you are the one who is right. The world has not known you. But I have known you. These people know that you have sent me.

bwe@John:18:2 @ Jesus had gone to this place often with his disciples, so Judas knew where the place was. He was the one who gave Jesus over to the people who hated him.

bwe@John:18:14 @ This was the same Caiaphas that had talked to the leaders of the Jews. He had said, It is better for one man to die for the people.

bwe@John:18:21 @ Why do you ask me? The people heard me talk. Ask them what I told them. They know what I said.

bwe@John:18:25 @ Simon Peter stayed by the fire and stood warming himself. So the people said to him, Are you not one of his disciples also? He said, No, I am not!

bwe@John:18:35 @ Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Your own people and the chief priests have brought you here to me. Tell me, what have you done?

bwe@John:18:36 @ Jesus answered him, I am not a king in this world. If I were, my people would fight so that I would not be given to the Jews. But I am not a king in this world.

bwe@John:19:4 @ Then Pilate went out to the people again and said to them, See, I bring the man before you. This is to show you that I find nothing wrong in him.

bwe@John:19:18 @ There they nailed Jesus to the cross. Two other people were also nailed to crosses. One was put on each side of Jesus. Jesus was put in the centre.

bwe@John:20:29 @ Jesus said to him, You yourself have seen me. Is that why you now believe? God will bless people who believe though they have not seen me.

bwe@John:21:20 @ Peter turned around. The disciple whom Jesus loved was coming with Jesus also. He was the one who was at Jesus right side at the supper table. He had said to Jesus, Lord, who will give you over to people who hate you?

bwe@Acts:1:12 @ Then they left the hill called the Mount of Olives. They went back to Jerusalem which was not far away. (It was how far the law said people may walk on the Sabbath day.)

bwe@Acts:1:14 @ All of these people were talking to God. The women, Jesus mother Mary, and Jesus brothers were there talking to God also.

bwe@Acts:1:15 @ About one hundred and twenty people were gathered together. Peter stood up among them to speak to them.

bwe@Acts:1:16 @ He said, My friends and brothers, Judas showed the people where Jesus was so they could take him. The Holy Spirit spoke through king David long ago about Judas before he did it. What was written about him has now happened.

bwe@Acts:1:19 @ All the people who live in Jerusalem know about this. In their language they named the field Akeldama, which means The Field of Blood.)

bwe@Acts:1:22 @ They were with us from the time John baptised people until the day Jesus was taken up from us. One of these men must help us tell people that Jesus was raised from death.

bwe@Acts:1:24 @ Then the people talked to God. They said, Lord, you know what is in everybodys heart. Show us which of these two men you have chosen to have a part in this work and to be an apostle. For Judas left this work and went to the place where he belonged.

bwe@Acts:2:1 @ On the day of Pentecost these people were all in one place.

bwe@Acts:2:3 @ And then they saw tongues like fire. These were divided and came on each one of the people there.

bwe@Acts:2:6 @ Many people came together when they heard the apostles speaking. They did not know what to think. Everyone heard someone speaking in his own language.

bwe@Acts:2:9 @ We people from the countries of Parthia and Media and Elam all hear the wonderful things God has done. So also do the people who live in the countries of Mesopotamia, and in Judea in Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, in Phrygia, and Pamphylia, and in Egypt, and in some parts of Lybia around Cyrene, people from the city of Rome who are now living in Jerusalem, both Jews and those who joined themselves to the Jews, the people from Crete and Arabia. These men from Galilee are speaking in our own languages.

bwe@Acts:2:13 @ Other people laughed about it and said, These men have been drinking too much new wine.

bwe@Acts:2:17 @ He said, "God says, In the last days I will send my Spirit on all people. I will speak through your sons and daughters. Your young men will see visions and your old men will have dreams.

bwe@Acts:2:22 @ You men of Israel, listen to this. God showed you that he was pleased with this man, Jesus of Nazareth. He proved it by the big works and the wonderful signs which he did by Jesus right here among you people. And you yourselves know it.

bwe@Acts:2:32 @ And now we all saw it. We are telling people that God raised this Jesus back to life.

bwe@Acts:2:36 @ So let all the people of Israel know this: God has made Jesus to be Lord and Christ. This is the same Jesus whom you nailed to the cross.

bwe@Acts:2:37 @ What Peter said cut the peoples hearts when they heard it. They knew they had done wrong. They said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brothers, what shall we do?

bwe@Acts:2:40 @ Peter went on talking and teaching the people. Do not follow the wrong ways of people today, he begged.

bwe@Acts:2:43 @ All the people were very much surprised. Many wonderful things and signs were done by the apostles.

bwe@Acts:2:46 @ And every day the believers kept on gathering in the temple. They ate bread in each others homes. They ate their food gladly and with open hearts. They praised God. All the people respected them. Day by day, the Lord added to the church those who were saved.

bwe@Acts:3:2 @ There was a man who had been born lame. He was carried and was laid at the gate of the temple every day. The gate was called Beautiful. He was brought there to beg. He asked for money from the people who went into the temple.

bwe@Acts:3:9 @ All the people saw him walking and praising God.

bwe@Acts:3:11 @ While the man still held on to Peter and John, all the people came running to them. It was in the part of the temple which is called Solomons porch. They were still very excited.

bwe@Acts:3:12 @ When Peter saw this, he talked to the people. He said, Men of Israel, why are you so surprised at this? Do you think that we have power or are good enough to make this man walk? Why do you look at us that way?

bwe@Acts:3:14 @ You would not receive the one who was holy and good. You asked for a bad man, who killed people, to be given to you.

bwe@Acts:3:15 @ You killed the one who gives life, the one whom God brought back from death. We saw it and are telling people about it.

bwe@Acts:3:23 @ And everyone who does not obey that Prophet will be cut off from his people altogether."

bwe@Acts:3:25 @ You are the people who have received what the prophets promised. And you have received the agreement which God made with your fathers. He said to Abraham, "Through your children all the nations of the earth will receive blessing."

bwe@Acts:4:1 @ Peter and John were talking to the people. The priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees came to them.

bwe@Acts:4:2 @ They were angry at Peter and John because they taught the people. They were angry because they told them that Jesus was brought back from death.

bwe@Acts:4:4 @ But many of the people who heard them speak the word of God, believed what they said. The number of men who believed was about five thousand.

bwe@Acts:4:8 @ Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, Rulers of the people and leaders of Israel, have you brought us to court today because of the good thing that was done to the lame man? Do you want to find out how he was healed?

bwe@Acts:4:10 @ Well, let it be known by all the people of Israel. This man standing before you is healed by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. He has done this. You nailed him to a cross, but God raised him from death.

bwe@Acts:4:12 @ No one else can save us. Of all the people in the world, God chose him to save us. It is by him we must be saved.

bwe@Acts:4:13 @ They saw that Peter and John were not afraid to speak out. They knew that they were like any other men. They did not have much training. So the people were very much surprised. They knew that Peter and John had been with Jesus.

bwe@Acts:4:16 @ They said, What shall we do to these men? All the people who live in Jerusalem know about this big work they have done. And we cannot say they did not do it.

bwe@Acts:4:17 @ But we do not want any more people to hear about it. So let us say to these men, "Take care! Never speak to anyone in this name again."

bwe@Acts:4:21 @ So the high priest and those with him told them again. Then they let them go. They could not punish them because of the people. They all praised God for what had been done.

bwe@Acts:4:25 @ Our father David was your servant. Through him you said by the Holy Spirit, "Why are the people who are not Jews so angry? And why do the people plan things for nothing?

bwe@Acts:5:11 @ Then all the church people, and all the people who heard about this were very much afraid.

bwe@Acts:5:12 @ The apostles did many signs and wonderful things for the people who met together in the place called Solomons porch.

bwe@Acts:5:13 @ Other people feared to join them, but they spoke well of them.

bwe@Acts:5:15 @ They brought sick people out into the streets and laid them on beds and mats. They hoped that at least Peters shadow would touch them as he passed by.

bwe@Acts:5:16 @ Many people also came from the cities around Jerusalem. They brought others who were sick and those who were controlled by bad spirits. Every one of them was healed.

bwe@Acts:5:20 @ Go, said the angel. Stand in the temple and tell the people all about this new life.

bwe@Acts:5:21 @ When the apostles heard that, they went into the temple early in the morning and taught the people there. The high priest and his men came. They called a meeting of the court and all the leaders of the Jews. Then they sent men to the prison to bring the apostles out.

bwe@Acts:5:25 @ Just then someone came and told them, The men you put in prison are standing in the temple teaching the people.

bwe@Acts:5:26 @ Then the captain went with the men and brought the apostles quietly. They did not bring them by force because they were afraid the people would kill them with stones.

bwe@Acts:5:27 @ So they brought them in and put them before the court. The high priest asked them, Did we not tell you that you must never teach again in this name? But here you are, teaching people all over Jerusalem in this name. You are trying to put on us the blame for this mans death.

bwe@Acts:5:31 @ God has made him great at his right side. He has made him leader and Saviour. He has done this so that the people of Israel may stop doing wrong things and be forgiven.

bwe@Acts:5:34 @ Then a lawyer named Gamaliel stood up in the court. He was a Pharisee and all the people respected him. He asked that the apostles be taken out for a while.

bwe@Acts:5:36 @ Before this time, there was a man named Theudas. He tried to make people believe that he was a great man. He had about four hundred followers. He was killed, and all of his followers were scattered, and the whole thing ended.

bwe@Acts:5:37 @ Then after that, at tax time, another man named Judas from Galilee made trouble. Many people followed him. He also was killed and all of his followers were scattered. 38,

bwe@Acts:6:1 @ At that time more and more people joined the disciples. Then there was trouble about a certain matter. The Jews who spoke the Greek language complained against the other Jews. They said that each day when the food was being divided, their women whose husbands were dead did not get their part.

bwe@Acts:6:5 @ This pleased all the people. The men they chose were Stephen, a man who believed God and was full of the Holy Spirit, Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus from Antioch who had joined the Jews.

bwe@Acts:6:7 @ The word of God spread further and further, and many people in Jerusalem believed. Many of the priests also believed.

bwe@Acts:6:8 @ Stephen received much blessing and power from God. He did many wonderful things and signs among the people.

bwe@Acts:6:11 @ So they paid some people to say, We have heard him say wrong things about Moses and God.

bwe@Acts:6:12 @ They talked to the people, the leaders, and the scribes, and made them angry. They went quickly and caught Stephen and took him into the court.

bwe@Acts:7:6 @ This is what God told Abraham. He told him that his children would travel and live in another land. They would be slaves to the people there. They would have a hard time for four hundred years.

bwe@Acts:7:7 @ And God said, "I will judge the people who make them slaves. After that, they will come out of that land and serve me here."

bwe@Acts:7:10 @ He took him out of all his troubles. He blessed him and made him wise in the eyes of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. Pharaoh made him president in Egypt and a ruler over all the people of his house.

bwe@Acts:7:14 @ Then Joseph sent for Jacob his father and all the family to come. There were seventy-five people.

bwe@Acts:7:23 @ When he was forty years old he decided to visit his own family, the people of Israel.

bwe@Acts:7:25 @ He thought his people would know that God wanted him to make them free. But they did not understand.

bwe@Acts:7:26 @ The next day he saw two of his own people fighting and he wanted to make peace. "You are brothers," he said. "Why are you fighting?"

bwe@Acts:7:34 @ I have looked and seen the trouble my people have in Egypt. I have heard them crying and I have come to make them free. Now come, I will send you to Egypt."

bwe@Acts:7:35 @ This is the same Moses the people would not accept when they said, "Who made you our ruler and our judge?" This is the one God sent to be their ruler and to make them free when he spoke through the angel in the small tree.

bwe@Acts:7:36 @ It was Moses who led the people out of Egypt. He had done wonderful things and signs there, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness, for forty years.

bwe@Acts:7:38 @ This is the same Moses who was with Gods people in the wilderness at the hill called Mount Sinai. He was with the angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers of long ago.It was he who received the words of life to give to us.

bwe@Acts:7:42 @ Then God turned away from them. He let them worship the sun, moon, and the many stars in the sky. The prophets of God wrote about it long ago. They said, "You people of Israel, did you sacrifice animals to me forty years in the wilderness?

bwe@Acts:7:45 @ Our fathers brought that tent with them when they came to this country. Joshua was their leader. God put aside the people who lived here first. Our fathers kept that tent with them until the time of David.

bwe@Acts:7:48 @ But even so, God is above all. He does not live in houses that people make with their hands. The prophet says,

bwe@Acts:7:51 @ You hard-hearted people! You have hearts and ears like the people who are not Jews. You always fight against the Holy Spirit just as your fathers did long ago.

bwe@Acts:8:1 @ Saul agreed to Stephen being killed. At that time the church people at Jerusalem had much trouble. The church people all went into Judea and Samaria. Only the apostles stayed on at Jerusalem.

bwe@Acts:8:3 @ Saul made much trouble for the church people. He went into every house, pulled out men and women, and put them into prison.

bwe@Acts:8:4 @ The people who left Jerusalem went all around telling the good news about Jesus.

bwe@Acts:8:5 @ Then Philip went to the city of Samaria and told people about Christ.

bwe@Acts:8:6 @ And all the people together listened to what Philip said because they heard and saw the big works which he did.

bwe@Acts:8:7 @ Many people who were held by bad spirits were made free from them. The spirits came out of them crying loudly. Many other sick people were healed too. People who could not stand, and others who were lame, were healed.

bwe@Acts:8:8 @ The people all over the city were very glad.

bwe@Acts:8:9 @ But there was one man named Simon, a witch-doctor, who fooled the people of Samaria. He tried to make people believe that he could do big things.

bwe@Acts:8:10 @ And all the people, young and old, listened to him. They said, This man is a big power of God.

bwe@Acts:8:12 @ But Philip came and told them about Gods kingdom and the name of Jesus Christ. The people believed him. Then both men and women were baptised.

bwe@Acts:8:14 @ Then the apostles at Jerusalem heard that the people of Samaria believed Gods word. So they sent Peter and John to them.

bwe@Acts:8:16 @ Until that time, none of the people there had received the Holy Spirit. They had only been baptised in the name of the Lord Jesus.

bwe@Acts:8:17 @ Then the apostles put their hands on the people and they received the Holy Spirit.

bwe@Acts:8:18 @ Simon saw that the people received the Holy Spirit when the apostles put their hands on them. Then he brought money to the apostles.

bwe@Acts:8:25 @ The apostles told the people the word of the Lord. Then they went back to Jerusalem. On the way they told the good news in many villages in Samaria.

bwe@Acts:8:27 @ So Philip went. He saw a man from the country of Ethiopia. This man was a servant of Candace, the queen of the Ethiopian people. She gave this servant much power. He took care of her money. He had gone to Jerusalem to worship.

bwe@Acts:9:13 @ Then Ananias replied, Lord, often I have heard of this man. He has brought much trouble to your people at Jerusalem.

bwe@Acts:9:15 @ The Lord said, Go, I have chosen him to take my name to the people who are not Jews, to kings, and to the people of Israel also.

bwe@Acts:9:20 @ Right away he went to the Jewish meeting places and told the people that Jesus is the Son of God.

bwe@Acts:9:21 @ All the people who heard him were surprised. They said, This man killed the people who called on Jesus name in Jerusalem. He came here to catch them and tie them and take them to the chief priests!

bwe@Acts:9:31 @ After that, the churches in Judea, Galilee, and Samaria were not troubled any more and they believed more strongly. The people obeyed the Lord, and the Holy Spirit helped them to believe. And many more people joined them.

bwe@Acts:9:32 @ While Peter was travelling through all the towns, he came to visit Gods people who lived in the city of Lydda.

bwe@Acts:9:35 @ All the people who lived at Lydda and Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.

bwe@Acts:9:36 @ In the city of Joppa there was a disciple. Her name was Tabitha. That means Dorcas or Gazelle. She did much good work and she gave many things to the poor people.

bwe@Acts:9:41 @ He took her hand and helped her get up. Then he called in Gods people and the women, and he gave her back to them alive.

bwe@Acts:9:42 @ All over Joppa people heard about this. Many people believed on the Lord.

bwe@Acts:10:2 @ He was a good man. He and all the people of his house obeyed God. He gave many gifts to the poor. He always talked with God.

bwe@Acts:10:27 @ Peter talked to him and went in with him. He saw many people who had come together.

bwe@Acts:10:34 @ Then Peter began to speak, I really understand now. God does not love some people more than others.

bwe@Acts:10:36 @ To the people of Israel God has sent the good news. He gives peace through Jesus Christ. He is Lord of all!

bwe@Acts:10:40 @ On the third day, God raised him up to let people see him.

bwe@Acts:10:41 @ Not all the people saw him. But God had chosen us to see and to talk about him. We saw him. We ate and drank with him after he rose from death.

bwe@Acts:10:42 @ He told us to tell the people that God chose him to judge both the living people and the dead people.

bwe@Acts:10:46 @ They heard them speak in tongues of other languages and praise God. Then Peter said, These people have received the Holy Spirit just as we have. Can anyone say they may not be baptised in water?

bwe@Acts:11:1 @ The apostles and other Christian brothers were in Judea. They heard that some people who were not Jews had also believed Gods message.

bwe@Acts:11:3 @ They asked, Why did you visit people who are not Jews? Why did you eat with them?

bwe@Acts:11:18 @ When the people heard this, they were satisfied. They praised God saying, God has allowed the people who are not Jews to turn to him and live.

bwe@Acts:11:19 @ Some of the people had gone to other countries because of the big trouble when Stephen was killed. They went as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch. They told Gods word to the Jews only.

bwe@Acts:11:22 @ The people in the Jerusalem church heard this news. They sent Barnabas to go to Antioch.

bwe@Acts:11:24 @ Barnabas was a good man. He believed in God and was filled with the Holy Spirit. Many people came to the Lord.

bwe@Acts:11:26 @ When he found him, he took him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with all who believed in Jesus Christ. They taught many people. Antioch was the first place where the disciples were called Christians.

bwe@Acts:11:28 @ One of them named Agabus stood up. He told them the Spirit had shown him that much trouble would come to all the world. There would not be much food for the people. (This trouble came when Claudius Caesar was ruler.)

bwe@Acts:12:1 @ At that time Herod the king caught some of the church people and troubled them.

bwe@Acts:12:4 @ After Herod had caught Peter, he put him in prison. He told four groups of soldiers to guard him. There were four soldiers in each group. He planned to bring him out for trial before the people. But he would do it after the Passover Feast.

bwe@Acts:12:5 @ So Peter was kept in prison. And the church people asked God to help him.

bwe@Acts:12:12 @ And when he thought about this, he went to Marys house. Mary was John Marks mother. Many people were meeting there, talking to God <FI>about Peter<Fi>.

bwe@Acts:12:14 @ When she knew it was Peters voice, she was very glad. She did not open the door. But she ran in and told the people that Peter was at the door.

bwe@Acts:12:20 @ Now Herod was angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. But they got Blastus to speak to the king for them. Blastus was one of the men who worked in the kings house. They came to Herod together. They wanted to make peace with him because their country got its food from his country.

bwe@Acts:12:22 @ The people shouted, A god is talking to us. He is not a man.

bwe@Acts:12:24 @ The word of God spread further and further and more people believed.

bwe@Acts:13:17 @ The God of the people of Israel chose our fathers. He made the people into a large tribe when they were strangers in the land of Egypt. God brought them out of Egypt by his power.

bwe@Acts:13:19 @ God took seven tribes out of the land of Canaan. Then he divided the land among our people.

bwe@Acts:13:21 @ Then the people asked for a king. God gave them Saul. He was the son of Kish, a man from Benjamins family. Saul was their king for forty years.

bwe@Acts:13:24 @ Before he came, John <FI>the baptiser<Fi> talked to all the people of Israel. He said they should stop doing wrong things and be baptised.

bwe@Acts:13:27 @ The people who live in Jerusalem and their rulers did not know who this Jesus really was. They did not understand the words of the prophets of God long ago which were read every Sabbath day. But even so, they did what the prophets had said they would do. They judged him.

bwe@Acts:13:31 @ People had come with Jesus from Galilee to Jerusalem. They saw him many days. Now they tell people what they saw.

bwe@Acts:13:36 @ As for David, he did the work God wanted him to do for the people in his time. Then, after that, he died. He was buried with his fathers. His body spoiled.

bwe@Acts:13:41 @ They said, "Look, you people who despise everything. You will look in wonder before you die. I will do something in your time. I will do something that you will not believe even if someone told you what it is."

bwe@Acts:13:42 @ As Paul and Barnabas left the meeting house the people said, Tell us these things again next Sabbath day.

bwe@Acts:13:43 @ The meeting was finished. There were many Jews, also those who were not Jews but worshipped God. They followed Paul and Barnabas. Paul and Barnabus kept talking to the people and told them to keep on living in the way that will bring Gods blessing.

bwe@Acts:13:44 @ The next Sabbath day almost all of the people in that city gathered to hear Gods word.

bwe@Acts:13:45 @ The leaders of the Jews saw that many people came. They were very jealous. They talked back to Paul and said he was not telling the truth. They also said wrong things about him.

bwe@Acts:13:46 @ But Paul and Barnabas did not fear the Jewish leaders. They said, We had to tell Gods word to you first but you will not listen to it. By that you are saying you Jews are not good enough to live for ever. So we will go to the people who are not Jews.

bwe@Acts:13:47 @ That is what the Lord told us to do. He said, "I have made you to be a light to the people who are not Jews. You will tell people everywhere in the world how to be saved."

bwe@Acts:14:1 @ In Iconium Paul and Barnabas did as they had done before in other places. They went into the Jews meeting place and spoke. Many of the Jews and the other people believed.

bwe@Acts:14:4 @ The people of the city were divided. Some of them agreed with the Jewish leaders. Some of them agreed with the apostles.

bwe@Acts:14:5 @ Then some of those people who were not Jews joined together with the Jews and their leaders. They made a plan to give the apostles much trouble and to kill them with stones.

bwe@Acts:14:7 @ There they told people the good news.

bwe@Acts:14:11 @ When the people saw what Paul had done, they shouted in their own language, The gods have become like men! They have come down to visit us.

bwe@Acts:14:13 @ There was a temple of Jupiter in front of the city. The priest of the temple brought animals and flowers to the gates to make a sacrifice. All the people were with him.

bwe@Acts:14:14 @ But when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of it, they tore their clothes and ran in among the people shouting.

bwe@Acts:14:15 @ They said, Why are you people doing this? We are only men like you. You should leave these gods which cannot help you. You should turn to the living God. He made the sky, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them.

bwe@Acts:14:16 @ In the time that is past, God allowed all people to do what they wanted to do.

bwe@Acts:14:18 @ By saying these things they stopped the people from making sacrifices to them.

bwe@Acts:14:19 @ Some of the Jewish leaders from Antioch and Iconium came to Lystra and won the people to their side. They threw stones at Paul. Then they carried him out of the city because they thought he was dead.

bwe@Acts:14:21 @ They told the good news to the people in Derbe. Many people believed what they taught. Then they went back to Lystra, to Iconium. and to Antioch.

bwe@Acts:14:25 @ They told the good news to the people in Perga. Then they went to the town of Attalia.

bwe@Acts:14:26 @ From there they went in a boat to Antioch. It was there that the people had given them over to Gods care. They had asked him to bless them in this work. Now they had finished the work.

bwe@Acts:14:27 @ When they reached the city, they called all the church people together. They told them all that God had done for them. They said, Now God has opened the way to believe for those who are not Jews.

bwe@Acts:15:3 @ So the church people sent them on their way. They passed through the districts of Phoenicia and Samaria. They told them that some who were not Jews were believing in God. This news made all the Christian brothers very happy.

bwe@Acts:15:4 @ When they reached Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church people, the apostles, and the church leaders. They told all that God had done as he worked with them.

bwe@Acts:15:12 @ Then all the people stopped talking. They listened to what Paul and Barnabas had to say. They told them about all the signs and wonderful things that God had helped them to do among the people who were not Jews.

bwe@Acts:15:14 @ Simeon has told us how God came the first time to the people who are not Jews. God chose some of them to belong to him and be his people.

bwe@Acts:15:17 @ Then all the other people will find God, even those who are not Jews but who belong to me. So says the Lord, who is doing all these things."

bwe@Acts:15:22 @ Then the apostles, and the leaders, and all the church people chose men from among themselves. They sent them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They chose Judas, whose other name was Barsabbas, and Silas. They were leaders among the Christian brothers.

bwe@Acts:15:24 @ We have heard that some of our people visited you and talked to you. They taught things that troubled you and made you believe wrong things. They said, "You must be circumcised like the Jews and keep the law." We did not tell them to teach you this.

bwe@Acts:15:30 @ So the men left and went to Antioch. There they called the people together and gave them the letter.

bwe@Acts:15:31 @ When the people read the letter, they were very glad. It helped them to become stronger in what they believed.

bwe@Acts:15:35 @ Paul and Barnabas stayed there too. They taught the people and told them the Lords message. Many other men did this also.

bwe@Acts:15:41 @ Paul travelled through Syria and Cilicia. He helped the church people to believe more strongly.

bwe@Acts:16:4 @ They went from town to town and talked to the people. They told them what the apostles and church leaders at Jerusalem had said should be done. So the church people became stronger in what they believed. Every day more people joined the church.

bwe@Acts:16:10 @ After Paul had seen the vision, we tried to leave for Macedonia right away. We believed that the Lord had called us to tell the people there the good news.

bwe@Acts:16:13 @ On the Sabbath day we went out of the city to the river. We thought this was a place where people met to talk with God. So we sat down and talked to the women who had come there.

bwe@Acts:16:15 @ She and all the people in her house were baptised. Then she begged us and said, If you really feel that I believe in the Lord, come and stay at my house. And she would not allow us to say no.

bwe@Acts:16:16 @ One day we were going to the meeting place where people talked with God. We met a girl who had a bad spirit. She used to tell people what was going to happen. Her masters received much money when she did this.

bwe@Acts:16:21 @ They are teaching people laws which we may not obey because we are Roman people.

bwe@Acts:16:22 @ All the people standing around were against Paul and Silas. The judges tore off the clothes of Paul and Silas. They gave orders that they should be beaten.

bwe@Acts:16:31 @ They replied, Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved. All the people in your house must do the same.

bwe@Acts:16:32 @ They talked to him and all the people in the house. They told them the word of the Lord.

bwe@Acts:16:33 @ Paul and Silas had sores from the beating in prison. So that same hour of the night the guard washed them. Then he and all the people of his house were baptised.

bwe@Acts:16:34 @ He took Paul and Silas to his home and gave them food to eat. He and all the people in his house were very happy. They now believed in God.

bwe@Acts:16:37 @ But Paul said, We are Romans. And they have beaten us outside where people can see. They have put us in prison without proving we have done wrong. Now, are they going to take us out of prison secretly? No, they themselves must come and take us out.

bwe@Acts:17:4 @ Some of the people believed him and they followed Paul and Silas. Some of them were Greek people who worshipped God. And some were leading women.

bwe@Acts:17:5 @ But some Jews did not believe, and they were jealous. So they called some of the bad men together and made a crowd. They started to fight and to make plenty of trouble and noise in the city. At Jasons house they went in by force to find Paul and Silas. They wanted to bring them outside to the people.

bwe@Acts:17:8 @ All the people and the rulers of the city became angry when they heard this.

bwe@Acts:17:11 @ The people in Berea were better than the people of Thessalonica. They were glad to listen to Pauls words. Every day they studied the holy writings to see if what Paul said was right.

bwe@Acts:17:12 @ Through this, many of them believed. Some of the leading women of the Greek people and some of the men also believed.

bwe@Acts:17:13 @ The leaders of the Jews in Thessalonica heard that Paul told the word of God to the people at Berea. They came to Berea and talked to the people. They said things that made the people very angry against Paul.

bwe@Acts:17:17 @ In the meeting place he talked with the Jews and those who believed in the true God. In the market every day, he talked to people he met there.

bwe@Acts:17:21 @ All the people of Athens and the strangers who lived there passed their time in one way. They liked to tell and to hear some new thing.

bwe@Acts:17:24 @ He made the world and everything in it. He is the Lord of the sky and the earth. He does not live in houses that people make with their hands.

bwe@Acts:17:25 @ Men cannot worship him by things they make with their hands because he does not need anything. He is the one who gives life and breath and everything else to all people.

bwe@Acts:17:30 @ In times past God did not look at what people did. They did not know any better then. But now he is calling all people to stop doing those things.

bwe@Acts:17:31 @ God has set a day when he will judge the whole world in the right way. He has chosen a man to do this. He has proved to all people who the man is. He has raised him from death.

bwe@Acts:17:32 @ When the people of Athens heard that someone had been raised from death, some of them laughed. Others said, We want to hear you talk about this matter again some time.

bwe@Acts:18:4 @ Every Sabbath day he talked with the people in the meeting place for the Jews. He tried to talk so that the Jews and the Greeks would believe.

bwe@Acts:18:6 @ But the people talked back to Paul. And they said wrong things about him. Paul shook his clothes and said to them, If you are lost, it is your own fault, not mine! From now on I will go to those who are not Jews.

bwe@Acts:18:8 @ Crispus was the head ruler of the meeting house. He and his whole family believed in the Lord. Many of the people in Corinth heard and believed. And they were baptised.

bwe@Acts:18:10 @ I am with you. nobody will hurt you. I have many people in this city.

bwe@Acts:18:11 @ So Paul stayed there for one year and six months. He taught the people Gods word.

bwe@Acts:18:13 @ They said, This man is talking to the people. He is trying to make them worship God in a way that is against our law.

bwe@Acts:18:22 @ When he reached Caesarea, he went to greet the church people. Then he went on to Antioch.

bwe@Acts:18:25 @ This man had been taught the way of the Lord. He was strong in spirit as he talked to people. What he taught them about the Lord was true. But he knew only about the baptism of John.

bwe@Acts:18:28 @ He talked strongly with the Jews before the people. He proved to them from the holy writings that Jesus is the Christ.

bwe@Acts:19:4 @ Then Paul said, John baptised people when they stopped their wrong ways. He told people that they should believe on the one who would follow him. That one is Jesus.

bwe@Acts:19:8 @ Paul went into the meeting place. For three months he talked without fear to the people there. He tried to talk so that people would obey God.

bwe@Acts:19:9 @ Some of them were fixed in their minds and would not believe. They said, The Christian way is not good They said this in front of all the people. So Paul left them and took the disciples away. He talked and answered the questions of the people every day in the school of a man named Tyrannus.

bwe@Acts:19:10 @ This went on for two years, and all the people who lived in the province of Asia, both the Jews and the Greeks, heard the Lords word.

bwe@Acts:19:11 @ God did big works through Paul. Even some pieces of cloth he had touched were carried to sick people and they were healed. Also, people who had bad spirits in them were made free.

bwe@Acts:19:13 @ Some Jews were there who travelled about from place to place. They had power over bad spirits like witch-doctors. They tried to make people free from bad spirits by using the name of the Lord Jesus. They said to the spirits, I tell you, in the name of Jesus, the one Paul talks about, come out!

bwe@Acts:19:18 @ Many of the people who believed, told God all the bad things they used to do.

bwe@Acts:19:19 @ Many had been witch-doctors. They brought their books and burned them in front of all the people. All the books together had cost about 50,000 silver coins.

bwe@Acts:19:20 @ Gods word spread with power. It reached more and more people.

bwe@Acts:19:26 @ Now you see and hear how this man Paul has talked. He has turned away many people in Ephesus. Not only that, but he has turned away the hearts of many people in almost all of Asia Minor. He says that things made by mens hands are not really gods.

bwe@Acts:19:27 @ This will spoil our work. Not only that, but people will not respect the house of the great idol goddess Diana any more. All the people in Asia and in the whole world worship her now. But they will despise her!

bwe@Acts:19:29 @ All the people in the city were excited. They caught two men from Macedonia. Their names were Gaius and Aristarchus. They had travelled with Paul. Then they all rushed to the big meeting place with them.

bwe@Acts:19:30 @ Paul wanted to go in and talk to the people, but the disciples would not let him.

bwe@Acts:19:32 @ Some of the people were shouting one thing and some another. They were all stirred up. Most of the people did not know why they had come together.

bwe@Acts:19:33 @ The Jews pushed Alexander forward. Some of the people put him in front. He put up his hand and wanted to talk to the people.

bwe@Acts:19:35 @ At last the city chief stopped the shouting. He said, Men of Ephesus, everyone knows that all the people of Ephesus take care of the house of the great Diana. And they take care of the stone which fell from the sky.

bwe@Acts:20:2 @ He went through that country and talked to the people. He helped them to believe more strongly. Then he went to Greece.

bwe@Acts:20:7 @ On the first day of the week the disciples met together to break bread. Paul was ready to leave the next day. He talked a long time to the people at the meeting until long into the night. They were gathered in an upstairs room with many lights.

bwe@Acts:20:9 @ A young man named Eutychus sat in the window. He became very sleepy. When Paul kept talking so long, Eutychus was very deep in sleep and fell down from the third floor. When the people picked him up he was dead.

bwe@Acts:20:12 @ The people took the young man. They were very glad because he was alive.

bwe@Acts:20:28 @ The Holy Spirit has made you leaders over his people. Watch yourselves. Like one who takes care of his sheep, so you must take care of the church people. They are the Lords people. He gave his blood for them.

bwe@Acts:20:29 @ I know this, that there are people as bad as wild animals. After I leave you, they will come to you. They will trouble Gods people.

bwe@Acts:20:30 @ Also, some men will come from among you. They will teach things that are not true. They want people to follow them.

bwe@Acts:20:32 @ And now, my brothers, I give you to God. I leave with you his word which brings blessing. That word is able to make you strong. It will give you your share in the good things of God promised by him. He gives these good things to people who are pure and holy.

bwe@Acts:21:11 @ When he came to us, he took Pauls belt. He tied his own hands and feet with it. Then he said, The Holy Spirit has told me that in the same way the leaders of the Jews in Jerusalem will tie the man who owns this belt. They will give him over to the people who are not Jews.

bwe@Acts:21:12 @ When we heard this, both we and the people there talked to Paul and begged him not to go to Jerusalem.

bwe@Acts:21:19 @ First, Paul greeted them. Then he told them one by one the things God had done as he worked among the people who were not Jews.

bwe@Acts:21:22 @ What should we do about it? Many people will gather together because they will surely hear that you have come.

bwe@Acts:21:24 @ Take them with you. Make yourself clean with them, the way the law says to do. Pay the cost for having their hair cut. Then all the people will know that all the things they heard about you are not true. They will know that you live the way the law says you should live.

bwe@Acts:21:27 @ The seven days were almost over. The Jewish leaders from Asia Minor saw Paul in the temple. They got all the people there excited. They caught hold of him.

bwe@Acts:21:28 @ They shouted, All you men of Israel, come and help us! This is the man who teaches everyone everywhere not to respect our people. He says we need not obey the law or respect this temple. And what is more, he has brought Greek people into the temple. He has made this holy place unclean.

bwe@Acts:21:30 @ So all the people in the city were excited. They came running. They caught Paul and took him out of the temple by force. Then the doors were shut behind them.

bwe@Acts:21:31 @ They were trying to kill him. The officer in charge of the soldiers heard that all the people of Jerusalem were making trouble.

bwe@Acts:21:32 @ Right away he took some soldiers and officers with him and ran down to the people. When the people saw them they stopped beating Paul.

bwe@Acts:21:34 @ Some of the crowd shouted one thing and some of them shouted something else. The captain could not find out what was true. The people were shouting too much. So he told his soldiers to take Paul into their army house.

bwe@Acts:21:35 @ When Paul came to the steps, the soldiers carried him because the people were fighting to get him.

bwe@Acts:21:39 @ Paul said, I am a Jew. I was born in the city of Tarsus in Cilicia. I belong to a great city. Please let me talk to these people.

bwe@Acts:21:40 @ So the officer let him talk. Paul stood on the steps and put up his hand. Then all the people were very quiet. He talked to them in the Jews language.

bwe@Acts:22:2 @ When the people heard him speak in the Jews language, they were even more quiet. Then Paul said, I am a Jew. I was born in the city of Tarsus in Cilicia. But I was raised here in this city. Gamaliel was my teacher. He taught me very well in the law of our fathers. I was trying hard to obey God, just as you all are today.

bwe@Acts:22:4 @ I troubled very much the people who believed this Way. I even killed them. I had men and women tied and put into prison.

bwe@Acts:22:15 @ You will speak for him. You will tell all the people what you have seen and heard.

bwe@Acts:22:18 @ I heard the Lord say to me, "Leave Jerusalem quickly, right away. The people will not listen to the things you say about me."

bwe@Acts:22:20 @ And I stood by and let people kill Stephen. He was one who talked for you. I looked after the clothes of the men who killed him."

bwe@Acts:22:21 @ But the Lord said to me, "Go! I will send you far away to the people who are not Jews."

bwe@Acts:22:22 @ The people listened to Paul until he said that. Then they shouted, Kill him and get him off the earth. A man like that should not live!

bwe@Acts:22:23 @ The people shouted. They waved their clothes about and threw dust in the air.

bwe@Acts:22:24 @ The man in charge of the soldiers ordered Paul to be brought into the army house. He said that he should be beaten hard to make him tell why the people shouted so much at him.

bwe@Acts:23:4 @ The people who stood near Paul said, Do you say a wrong thing like that to Gods high priest?

bwe@Acts:23:5 @ Paul said, I did not know that he is a high priest. The holy writings say, "You shall not say anything wrong about a ruler of your people."

bwe@Acts:23:10 @ The people started fighting. The commanding officer was afraid they would tear Paul into pieces. So he told the soldiers to take Paul and bring him into the army house.

bwe@Acts:23:11 @ The next night the Lord stood beside Paul. He said, Be glad, Paul. You have told people about me in Jerusalem. You must also talk about me in Rome.

bwe@Acts:24:2 @ Paul was called in. Tertullus began to bring the complaints. Great ruler Felix, he said, we have peace because of what you have done. These people have a better life because of you.

bwe@Acts:24:10 @ The ruler made a sign for Paul to speak. So Paul said, I know that for many years you have judged matters for this people.

bwe@Acts:24:11 @ So I am happy to speak for myself. Not more than twelve days ago I went to Jerusalem to worship. If you ask the people, you will find this out.

bwe@Acts:24:12 @ They did not find me quarrelling with anyone in the temple. I was not making trouble among the people in the meeting houses or in the city.

bwe@Acts:24:15 @ I believe that God will raise from death both the good people and the bad people. These people here believe the same thing.

bwe@Acts:24:17 @ I was away for a few years and I had come to Jerusalem to bring gifts to my people, and to give offerings.

bwe@Acts:24:18 @ While I was doing this, they found me in the temple. I had made myself clean the way the law says to do. I did not have many people around me. I was not making trouble.

bwe@Acts:24:25 @ Paul talked about what is right, about living the right way, and about the time when all people will be judged. Felix was very much afraid when he heard these things. He said to Paul, You may go now. When I have time, I will call you again.

bwe@Acts:25:11 @ If I have done wrong things, or any wrong thing for which I should die, then I do not ask to live. But if the things these people say are not true, then no one has power to give me up to the leaders of the Jews. I ask to go to Caesar.

bwe@Acts:26:4 @ All the Jews know the way I lived from the time I was young. From the beginning I lived with my own people at Jerusalem.

bwe@Acts:26:7 @ All the people of our twelve tribes serve God faithfully day and night. They do this because they believe they will receive what he has promised. Because I believe this, king Agrippa, the Jewish leaders are talking against me.

bwe@Acts:26:10 @ I did this in Jerusalem. The chief priests gave me power. I put many of Gods people in prison. And when they were killed, I agreed to it.

bwe@Acts:26:16 @ But get up. Stand on your feet. Here is why I have shown myself to you. I have chosen you to work for me. I have chosen you to tell people what you saw when you saw me today. You are to tell them also about the other times when I will show myself to you.

bwe@Acts:26:17 @ I will keep you safe from your own people, the Jews. And I will keep you safe from those who are not Jews. I am sending you to them.

bwe@Acts:26:20 @ I told the good news to the people of Damascus and Jerusalem. Then I told it all over Judea. I went to those who are not Jews. I told everyone that they must stop doing wrong things and turn to God. I told them they must show by the way they live that they have stopped doing wrong things.

bwe@Acts:26:22 @ God has always helped me up to today. I have stood and talked to both small people and great people. I have said nothing more than what the prophets and Moses said would happen.

bwe@Acts:27:37 @ In all, we were 276 people on the boat.

bwe@Acts:27:43 @ But the officer wanted to save Paul, so he stopped the soldiers. He told the people, Those of you who can swim, jump into the water first and get to the land.

bwe@Acts:28:2 @ The people there were very kind to us. They made a fire for us and took care of us. It was cold and raining.

bwe@Acts:28:4 @ The people of Malta saw the snake hanging on his hand. Oh, they said to each other. This man has no doubt killed someone. He did not die in the water, but it is not right for him to live.

bwe@Acts:28:6 @ The people thought surely he would swell up or would drop down dead at once. They waited a long time and saw that nothing bad happened to him. Then they said, We were wrong. He must be a god.

bwe@Acts:28:9 @ After this, other sick people on the island came to Paul. And they too were healed.

bwe@Acts:28:17 @ After three days, Paul called for the leaders of the Jews at Rome. When they had come, he said to them, My brothers, I have done nothing against our people. I have obeyed the laws of our fathers. And yet I was made a prisoner at Jerusalem and was given over to the Romans.

bwe@Acts:28:19 @ But the Jewish leaders did not agree to let me go free, so I had to ask to be brought before Caesar. I did not have anything to say against my people.

bwe@Acts:28:21 @ They said to him, The people of Judea have not written us any letter about you. When our brother Jews have come here, not one of them has told or said anything wrong about you.

bwe@Acts:28:22 @ But we want to hear from you what you think. We know that people everywhere are talking against this Christian group.

bwe@Acts:28:24 @ Some of the people were ready to believe what he said, but others did not believe.

bwe@Acts:28:26 @ He said, "Go to these people and say, You will hear but never understand. You will look but never see.

bwe@Acts:28:27 @ The hearts of these people have become hard. They do not hear with their ears. They have shut their eyes. They do not want to see with their eyes. They do not want to hear with their ears. They do not want to understand with their hearts. If they did, they would turn back to me and I would forgive them."

bwe@Romans:1:2 @ Through his prophets long ago God promised this good news to people, in the holy writings.

bwe@Romans:1:5 @ This same Jesus Christ was kind to me. And he made me an apostle. I am sent in his name so that people in all nations will obey him.

bwe@Romans:1:7 @ I send greetings to all the Christians who live in the city of Rome. God loves you and has called you to be his people. May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you. In their kindness may they give you peace.

bwe@Romans:1:8 @ People in all the world have heard that you believe. I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you.

bwe@Romans:1:14 @ This is something I must do for the Greek people and for all other people. I must do it for people who are wise and for people who are not wise.

bwe@Romans:1:15 @ That is why I want so much to tell the good news to you people in the city of Rome also.

bwe@Romans:1:18 @ God is angry. He has shown it from heaven. He is angry because of all the bad and wrong things people do. These people hold back Gods truth by the wrong things they do.

bwe@Romans:1:20 @ People cannot see that God has power which lasts for ever. They cannot see that he is really God. But ever since he made the world, he has clearly shown this by the things he made. So they cannot say, I did not know about God.

bwe@Romans:1:22 @ They said they were wise people, but they were foolish people.

bwe@Romans:1:29 @ They were very bad. They did every kind of wrong thing. They were greedy. They hated people. They were very jealous. They killed many people. They fought. They fooled people. They told lies about people. They carried stories from one person to another.

bwe@Romans:1:30 @ They said wrong things about people. They hated God. They did not respect people. They were proud. They talked big. They even thought of new wrong things to do. They did not obey their parents.

bwe@Romans:1:31 @.They were foolish. They did not do what they said they would do. They did not love people. They were not kind.

bwe@Romans:1:32 @ They know that God says that people who do such things should die. Even so, they not only do them, but they praise other people who do them.

bwe@Romans:2:1 @ Do you judge another people? You your-selves have done wrong things. So when you judge others, you judge yourselves, because you do the same things. You judge them and yet you do the same things.

bwe@Romans:2:2 @ We know that God judges people who do such things. And he judges them by what is true.

bwe@Romans:2:3 @ Man, you judge people who do such things and yet you do them yourself. Do you think that God will not judge you?

bwe@Romans:2:5 @ But your hearts are hard. You will not stop. That is why God will be angry with you. He will be angry on the day when people will see that he judges in the right way.

bwe@Romans:2:7 @ He will give life for ever to people who keep on doing good. These people want to have glory and honour from God, and to live for ever.

bwe@Romans:2:8 @ But God will be very angry with the people who think of themselves first before others. They do not obey what is right. They do wrong things.

bwe@Romans:2:11 @ God does not love some people more than others.

bwe@Romans:2:13 @ (God does not say people are good because they have heard the law. But people who obey the law will be called good people.

bwe@Romans:2:14 @ Some people do not have the law. But they do what the law says because their own hearts tell them to. They have a law of their own, even though they do not know the law.

bwe@Romans:2:16 @ This will be on the day when God judges the things men have kept secret. Jesus Christ will be the judge. That is part of the good news I tell people.

bwe@Romans:2:18 @ You know what he wants people to do. You know the thoughts that are good because you have been taught the law.

bwe@Romans:2:19 @ You are sure that you can lead people who are like blind men. You are like a light for people who are in the dark.

bwe@Romans:2:20 @ You are sure that you can tell foolish people what is right. You can teach people who are like children. You know what you need to know and you know what is true because you have the law.

bwe@Romans:2:21 @ You teach another person. Do you not teach yourself? You say people must not steal. Do you steal?

bwe@Romans:2:22 @ You say people must not commit adultery. Do you commit adultery? You hate idols. Do you steal things from the houses of idols?

bwe@Romans:2:24 @ The holy writings say, People who are not Jews say wrong things about the name of God. They do it because of what you Jews do.

bwe@Romans:2:27 @ Some people have not been circumcised, but they obey the law. They will show that you should be punished. You have the written law and you have been circumcised, and yet you break the law.

bwe@Romans:2:29 @ If a person is a Jew inside, he is really a Jew. It is God who praises him, not people. True circumcision is done in the heart. It is in the spirit, not in the body. Such people are not praised; but God praises them.

bwe@Romans:3:4 @ No, it does not mean that. God must be true, even if every man is not true. The holy writings say this about God: People will see that you are right in what you say. You will be without fault when you are judged.

bwe@Romans:3:5 @ When we do wrong things, we show that God is right. What shall we say about that? Does God do wrong when he punishes us? (I speak the way people would think about it.)

bwe@Romans:3:7 @ Maybe I say what is not true. And that makes people praise God more because he is true. Then why does God still judge me and say I have done wrong?

bwe@Romans:3:8 @ Some people say wrong things about us. They say that we say, Let us do wrong things so that good things will happen. People who say such things should be punished.

bwe@Romans:3:9 @ So what shall we say? Are we Jews any better than other people? No, we are not! I have already shown that all men, both Jews and people who are not Jews have done wrong things.

bwe@Romans:3:13 @ Their mouth is like an open grave. They have used their tongues to fool people. The poison of bad snakes is under their lips.

bwe@Romans:3:14 @ Their mouths are full of cursing and saying bad words to people.

bwe@Romans:3:15 @ Their feet run quickly to kill people.

bwe@Romans:3:19 @ We know that everything the law says, it says to the people who have the law. Then no one can say a word for themselves. All the people in the world will be brought to God to be judged.

bwe@Romans:3:20 @ No one will be put right with God because he has tried to obey the law. The law only makes people know what they have done wrong.

bwe@Romans:3:21 @ So now God has shown how people can be put right with him without the law. The law and the prophets said he would do it.

bwe@Romans:3:22 @ God puts people right with himself when they believe in Jesus Christ. He does this for all who believe. They are all alike.

bwe@Romans:3:25 @ God gave him as a sacrifice. When people believe in him, his blood pays for the wrong things they have done. This shows that God is good and right. He was right when he forgave the wrong things that people did long ago.

bwe@Romans:3:29 @ Is God the God of the Jews only? Is he not the God of other people also? Yes, he is. There is only one God of all peoples.

bwe@Romans:3:30 @ He will put right people who have been circumcised <FI>the Jews<Fi> because they believe. And he will also put right people who are not circumcised when they believe.

bwe@Romans:4:7 @ David said, God blesses people who have been forgiven the wrong things they have done. God covers over the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Romans:4:8 @ The Lord blesses people when he forgets the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Romans:4:9 @ Does God bless only people who have been circumcised? Or does he also bless those who are not? We say, because Abraham believed God, God called him a good man. His faith made him right with God.

bwe@Romans:4:11 @ Abraham was circumcised as a sign. It was a sign that he was a good man, because he believed when he was not yet circumcised. That makes him the father of all people who believe, even those who are not circumcised. God says they are good people.

bwe@Romans:4:12 @ That makes him also the father of those who are circumcised. I mean people who are circumcised and do as our father Abraham did. Even when he was not circumcised, he believed.

bwe@Romans:4:14 @ If the world will belong to people who obey the law, it is of no use to believe God. And the promise is no good.

bwe@Romans:4:16 @ That is why people must believe. Because God is kind, he makes the promise sure for all of Abrahams children. The promise is for those who have the law and also for those who believe as Abraham did. He is the father of us all.

bwe@Romans:4:17 @ the holy writings say, I have made you the father of many nations. Abraham was made the father of many nations by God. He believed God. He believed that God could make dead people live. He believed God when he said that things were true even though they had not happened yet.

bwe@Romans:5:1 @ We are made good people and put right with God when we believe in Jesus Christ. So now we have peace with God because of what our Lord Jesus Christ did.

bwe@Romans:5:6 @ We could not help ourselves. So at the right time, Christ died to save us bad people.

bwe@Romans:5:8 @ God shows his love for us in this way: Christ died to save us while we were bad people.

bwe@Romans:5:13 @ People in the world were not right with God before he gave the law. But wrong things are not punished when there is no law.

bwe@Romans:5:14 @ Yet death ruled over people from Adams time to Moses time. It even ruled over the people who were not as wrong as Adam. Adam was like a person who would come later.

bwe@Romans:5:15 @ But the free gift is not like the wrong thing. Many people died because one man did a wrong thing. This is sure. God was very kind and he gave a free gift. This gift was given to many people because one man, Jesus Christ, did a very kind thing.

bwe@Romans:5:16 @ The free gift is not like the wrong thing one man did. Because of that one man people were judged. And they were punished. Because many people did wrong things, God gave his free gift and many people were made right with him.

bwe@Romans:5:17 @ One man did a wrong thing. And so death ruled over people because of that one man. God has been kind to people and given them his free gift. That gift is to make people right with God. People who take that gift will live and rule because of one man, Jesus Christ.

bwe@Romans:5:18 @ One man did a wrong thing. And so all people were punished through him. But Christ did the right thing. And so all people can have the free gift of life through being put right with God.

bwe@Romans:5:19 @ One man did not obey. And so many people were bad people. One man obeyed. And so many people will be made right with God.

bwe@Romans:5:20 @ When the law came, it showed how wrong people really were. But when people were really bad, God was even more kind.

bwe@Romans:5:21 @ The wrong things people did ruled over them, and they died. Now God has been very kind. He has made people right with him. So now Gods blessing will rule over them, and they will live for ever. Jesus Christ our Lord has done this for them.

bwe@Romans:6:10 @ He died. And he died once for all time, so that people would stop their wrong ways. But now he lives. And he lives for God.

bwe@Romans:6:16 @ If you give yourselves to be slaves and obey your master, you are not free. You are his slaves. Do you not know this: you may be slaves to wrong things? But you will not live for ever. Or you may be slaves to obey God. Then you will be made good people and live with him.

bwe@Romans:6:19 @ I speak the way people would think about such things, because your minds are weak. At one time you gave your bodies to be slaves to your unclean ways, and to do more and more wrong things. So now give your bodies to be slaves to doing what is right, and to being good.

bwe@Romans:7:1 @ My brothers, I am saying this to you people who know the law. Do you not know that the law is master over a person only while he lives?

bwe@Romans:7:7 @ So what shall we say? Shall we say that the law is bad? No! I would not have known what is wrong if there had been no law. The law says, Do not want to take other peoples things. That is how I know it is wrong to want another persons things.

bwe@Romans:8:3 @ God has done what the law could not do. The things people did made the law weak. God sent his own Son in a body of man. His body was like the bodies which others use to do wrong things. He sent him because people have done wrong things. And he judged the wrong things people have done in their bodies.

bwe@Romans:8:4 @ He did this so that we might be good people as the law said we should be. We are good people if we live the way the Spirit wants us to live, not the way our bodies want to live.

bwe@Romans:8:5 @ Some people live the way their bodies want to live. They think only about the things their bodies want to do. Other people live the way the Spirit wants them to live. They think about the things the Spirit wants them to do.

bwe@Romans:8:7 @ People who think about the things of this life are Gods enemies. They do not obey Gods law. They cannot obey it.

bwe@Romans:8:8 @ People who do what their bodies want cannot please God.

bwe@Romans:8:27 @ God looks to see what is in peoples hearts. And he knows what the Spirit is going to do. The Spirit talks to God for Gods people. And he asks for them what God wants them to have.

bwe@Romans:8:28 @ We know that God works out everything for the good of those who love him. They are the people who are part of his plan.

bwe@Romans:8:30 @ He chose them and he also called them. He called them to himself as if they had never been bad people. He made them right with himself and he also made them great in heaven.

bwe@Romans:8:33 @ Who will say anything against Gods chosen people? For it is God himself who says they have been put right with him.

bwe@Romans:8:35 @ Who can take us away from Christs love? We may have trouble. We may have hard times. People may make us suffer because we believe. We may have no food to eat and no clothes to wear. We may be in danger. We may be killed with big knives. Can any of these things take us away from Christs love?

bwe@Romans:9:2 @ I am very sad. I am always troubled. 3I could almost wish I were taken away from Christ for the sake of my brothers, the people of my own nation.

bwe@Romans:9:6 @ Not all the people in Abrahams family are his children. But the holy writings say, It is Isaacs family who will be called your family.

bwe@Romans:9:11 @ When the children were not yet born, they had done nothing good or bad. God chooses the people he wants. He does not choose people because of what they have done. He chooses people who will answer his call. So he said to Rebecca, The older one will be a slave of the younger one.

bwe@Romans:9:16 @ In the holy writings it says to Pharaoh, That is why I made you live. I wanted to show my power through you. I wanted people to know about me all over the earth.

bwe@Romans:9:21 @ God has a right to be very angry if he wants to be. He has the right to show his power. God was very angry with some people who deserved to die. And yet he waited a long time before he did anything to them.

bwe@Romans:9:22 @ He did it to show how very great he is. He was kind to some people. He planned for them to be made great.

bwe@Romans:9:24 @ In the book written long ago by the prophet Hosea, God says They were not my people. But I will call them "my people". I did not love her, but I will call her "the one I love."

bwe@Romans:9:25 @ 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."

bwe@Romans:9:26 @ Isaiah the prophet of God said long ago about Israel, Even if the people of Israel are as many as the sand by the sea, only some of them will be saved.

bwe@Romans:9:29 @ So what shall we say? The people who are not Jews have been put right with God. They did nothing to make themselves right with God. But they were put right because they believed God.

bwe@Romans:9:30 @ But the Jews tried to obey the law that could make them good people. But they did not obey it all.

bwe@Romans:9:32 @ That is what the holy writings say, I put in Zion a stone on which people will hit their feet. It is a rock that will make them fall down. Anyone who believes in him will not be ashamed.

bwe@Romans:10:3 @ They did not know the way God makes people right with him. They tried to make themselves good people. So they did not obey Gods way to become right with him.

bwe@Romans:10:7 @ Do not say, "Who will go down into the hole that has no bottom?" (That means, Who will go down to bring Christ up from the dead people?)

bwe@Romans:10:8 @ But what do the holy writings say? They say, The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart. That means, the word to believe which we tell people.

bwe@Romans:10:12 @ The Jews and other people are alike. The same Lord is Lord of all people. He richly blesses all who call out to him.

bwe@Romans:10:14 @ But how can people call someone if they have not believed in him? And how can they believe in him if they have not heard about him? And how can they hear about him if no one tells them about him?

bwe@Romans:10:15 @ And how can people tell about him if no one sends them? The holy writings say, How good are the feet of those who bring the good news of peace and happiness.

bwe@Romans:10:17 @ So people believe because they hear. They hear because people tell them about Christ.

bwe@Romans:10:19 @ But I ask, did not the Jews know? First the book of Moses says, I will make you jealous through people who are not a nation like the Jews. I will make you angry through people who do not even know or understand these things.

bwe@Romans:10:20 @ But the book of Isaiah says even stronger words. The people who did not look for me have found me. I have shown myself to those who did not ask for me.

bwe@Romans:10:21 @ But he says about the Jews, All day I held out my hands to a people who did not obey me, who said wrong things against me.

bwe@Romans:11:1 @ So I ask, has God left his people? No, he has not! I myself am a Jew. I was born in Abrahams family. I belong to the tribe of Benjamin.

bwe@Romans:11:2 @ God has not left his people whom he knew from the first. Do you not know what the holy writings say about the prophet Elijah? He talked to God against the people of Israel.

bwe@Romans:11:7 @ So what does that mean? The Jews did not get what they tried to get. Only the people God chose got it. The hearts of the rest of the people became hard.

bwe@Romans:11:11 @ So I ask, Have their feet been caught so that they have really fallen down? No. But because they began to fall, the people who are not Jews were told how to be saved. That would make the Jews jealous.

bwe@Romans:11:12 @ The people who are not Jews have been richly blessed because the Jews failed. So it will be even better for them when the Jews no longer fail God.

bwe@Romans:11:14 @ I want the people of my own nation, the Jews, to be jealous. Then I may be able to save some of them.

bwe@Romans:11:15 @ God turned away from the Jews in order to bring the world back to himself. Then if that is true, when he takes the Jews back to himself, will not that be like making dead people live?

bwe@Romans:11:25 @ My brothers, I want you to know something that has been a secret. Then you will not be proud of yourselves. The secret is this. Some Jews will have hard hearts until the right number of other people have come in.

bwe@Romans:11:26 @ Then all the Jews will be saved. The holy writings say, Someone will come from Zion to save people. He will take away the wrong ways of our father Jacob.

bwe@Romans:11:29 @ God does not change his gifts or his call to people.

bwe@Romans:11:32 @ God allowed people to disobey him. He did it so that he might be kind and forgive all people.

bwe@Romans:12:2 @ Do not be like the people of this world, but have a new mind. Then you will prove for yourselves what God wants you to do. That will be good. It will please God. And it will be all right.

bwe@Romans:12:5 @ In the same way, we are many people. But we are one body because we are all joined together in Christ. Each one of us is a part of all the others.

bwe@Romans:12:10 @ Love one another very much, like brothers. Honour other people more than you honour yourself.

bwe@Romans:12:13 @ Give to Gods people who need it. Be glad to take care of strangers in your house.

bwe@Romans:12:15 @ Be happy with people who are happy. Cry with people who cry.

bwe@Romans:12:17 @ When people do wrong things to you, do not do wrong things to them also. But try to do good things for all people.

bwe@Romans:12:19 @ My dear brothers, do not punish people who do wrong to you. But let Gods anger punish them. In the holy writings the Lord says, I myself will punish people. If they have done wrong things, I will do wrong things to them also.

bwe@Romans:13:7 @ Pay them all that they should have. Pay taxes to the person who should have the taxes. Pay money to the person who should have the money. Respect the people who should be respected. Honour a person who should be honoured.

bwe@Romans:13:9 @ The law says, Do not commit adultery. Do not kill. Do not steal. Do not want things that belong to other people. These laws and others are all in this one law: Love your neighbour as you love yourself.

bwe@Romans:13:12 @ The night is almost past. Morning is near. Let us stop doing the wrong things people do in the dark. Let us do the good things that people do in the light.

bwe@Romans:13:13 @ Let us live in the right way like people who are in the light. We must not take part in noisy feasting with dancing, or get drunk. We must not do any kind of wrong thing with sex. We must not quarrel or be jealous.

bwe@Romans:14:9 @ Christ wanted to be Lord, both of dead people and of living people. That is why he died and lived again.

bwe@Romans:14:16 @ What is good for you must not be something that other people say is wrong.

bwe@Romans:14:18 @ A person who does the work of Christ in this way pleases God. And people like him.

bwe@Romans:15:3 @ Christ did not please himself. But the holy writings say, I took upon myself the wrong things that people said against you.

bwe@Romans:15:5 @ God gives people power to take their troubles and he comforts their hearts. I ask him to help you to think the same way as Christ did.

bwe@Romans:15:7 @ So, accept one another, as Christ has accepted you. Then people will know that God is great.

bwe@Romans:15:9 @ He did this so that people who are not Jews would praise God because he is kind. The holy writings say, So I will praise you among the people who are not Jews. I will sing songs to your name.

bwe@Romans:15:10 @ The holy writings also say, People who are not Jews, be glad with those who are Gods people.

bwe@Romans:15:11 @ And they also say, People who are not Jews, praise the Lord. All peoples should praise him.

bwe@Romans:15:12 @ Also, Isaiah says, Someone from Jesses family will come. He will come to rule the people who are not Jews. People who are not Jews will have hope in him.

bwe@Romans:15:14 @ My brothers, I myself believe that you are very good people. I believe that you know many things and are able to teach one another.

bwe@Romans:15:16 @ I am a servant of Christ Jesus to the people who are not Jews. I am like a priest to them, to tell them Gods good news. Then I offer the people to God. That pleases God. They have been accepted by him and made holy by the Holy Spirit.

bwe@Romans:15:18 @ I will speak only of what Christ has done through me. People who are not Jews have obeyed the good news. They have obeyed because of what I told them and because of what I did.

bwe@Romans:15:20 @ I have wanted to tell the good news where people have not heard the name of Christ. I did not want to work where another man had started to work.

bwe@Romans:15:21 @ The holy writings say, They were not told about him, but they will see him. And the people who have not heard of him will understand.

bwe@Romans:15:25 @ But now I am going to Jerusalem with a gift to help Gods people.

bwe@Romans:15:26 @ The people of Macedonia and Achaia wanted to send a gift to help Gods people in Jerusalem who are poor.

bwe@Romans:15:27 @ They wanted to do it, and they should do it for them. The Jews gave the people who were not Jews the good things their spirits need. So the people who were not Jews should give the Jews the good things their bodies need.

bwe@Romans:15:28 @ I will finish doing this, and I will give them what the people send them. Then I will go by you on my way to Spain.

bwe@Romans:15:31 @ Ask him to save me from the people in Judea who do not believe. Ask him that the gift I take to Jerusalem may please Gods people there.

bwe@Romans:16:2 @ I want you to take her in because she is a Christian. That is what Gods people should do. Help her in any way she needs help. She has helped many people and has helped me too.

bwe@Romans:16:15 @ Give my greetings to Philologus, Julia, Nereus, and his sister, and Olympas, and all Gods people who are with them.

bwe@Romans:16:17 @ Brothers, I ask you to do this. Watch the people who make quarrels. They make people do wrong because they teach things you have not been taught. Have nothing to do with those people.

bwe@Romans:16:18 @ Those people do not work for our Lord Jesus Christ. They work only for themselves. With their words of praise they fool people who do not know what is wrong.

bwe@Romans:16:19 @ People everywhere know that you obey. I am very happy about you. I want you to be wise and know what is right. I want you to know nothing about what is wrong.

bwe@Romans:16:26 @ The books of the prophets have told this message. The God who lives for ever told the prophets to write this message so that all the people who are not Jews will believe and obey.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:2 @ Our Christian brother Sosthenes and I send greetings to the people who are the church of God in the city of Corinth. You are people whom Christ Jesus has made holy. You, too, are chosen to be Gods people. And we send greetings to all the people everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. He is their Lord, just as he is our Lord.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:16 @ (However, I also baptized the people of the house of Stephanas. I do not know of any one else that I baptized.)

bwe@1Corinthians:1:17 @ Christ did not send me to baptize people, but he sent me to tell the good news. I must not tell it with the clever words of this world. That would not show what the death of Christ on a cross truly means.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:18 @ When people who are turning away from God hear about the cross, they say, That is foolish! But for us who are being saved, the cross is the power God uses to save us.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:19 @ God says in the holy writings, I will fool the wise people. I will bring to nothing the understanding of the clever people.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:20 @ Where are your wise people, the men who know books, the men who like to talk about the things of this world? God has shown that the clever things of this world are nothing.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:21 @ God is wise. But the people of the world were not wise enough to know God. So he chose to save people who believe the good news that we tell them, even though the good news may seem to be foolish.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:23 @ But we tell people about Christ who died on a cross. The leaders of the Jews do not like this, and those who are not Jews laugh at it.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:24 @ But some have been called by God. They are chosen, both Jews and other people. Christ is Gods power to save them. This shows how wise he is.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:26 @ My brothers, remember what you were when God chose you. Not many of you were wise by the way people look at it. Not many of you had power. Not many of you came from a family with a big name.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:27 @ But God chose things that look foolish to the people of the world. He has used those foolish things to put the wise people to shame. God chose the weak things to put to shame the strong people.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:28 @ And God chose the small things, things that people despise. Yes, he chose even the things which seem to be nothing. He did this to destroy the big things.

bwe@1Corinthians:1:29 @ He did this so that people would not be proud before God.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:6 @ However, our words are wise words to those who really believe. But they are not the kind of wise words that the people of this world speak. They are not the kind of wise words that the rulers of this world speak. Those rulers will die.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:7 @ Our wise words are Gods wise words about things people do not understand. Before God made the world he planned those things for our glory and blessing.

bwe@1Corinthians:2:14 @ The person who does not have the Spirit does not receive the blessings of the Spirit of God. He thinks they are foolish. He cannot understand them because only people who have the Spirit of God can test them.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:1 @ My brothers, I could not talk to you at first as to people who have the Spirit of God. But I talked to you as people who have the spirit of this world. I talked to you as people who are very new-born, baby Christians.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:3 @ You still have the spirit of this world in you. You are jealous of each other and you are quarrelling. The spirit of this world is still in you and you live like people of this world.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:12 @ People build with gold, silver, very fine stones, wood, grass, or straw on top of the foundation.

bwe@1Corinthians:3:19 @ The things that look wise to the people of this world look foolish to God. The holy writings say, He catches the wise people in their own tricks.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:1 @ People should look at us as men who are servants of Christ. We take care of the secret things of God.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:5 @ So do not judge me before it is time. Wait until the Lord comes. The things which have been kept hidden in the dark he will bring out into the light. He will show what is in peoples hearts. At that time God will tell each man how good his work is.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:12 @ We work hard with our hands. People curse us, but we bless them. They trouble us much, but we must take it.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:13 @ They talk behind our backs, but we still try to win them. People treat us as a dirt pile, the rubbish of the world. And they still do these things.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:15 @ Even if you have ten thousand people to take care of you as Christians, yet you do not have many fathers. I am your Christian father because I brought you the good news.

bwe@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come soon if it is the Lords will. Then I will find, not the talk of those proud people, but their power.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:1 @ I have heard a very bad report about you. I hear there are wrong sexual ways among you. Even the people who are not Jews do not allow wrong sex such as this among them. A man is living with his fathers wife!

bwe@1Corinthians:5:8 @ I wrote a letter to you. I told you not to be friends with people who use sex the wrong way <FI>with a person they are not married to<Fi>.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I did not mean the people of the world <FI>people who are not Christians<Fi> -some of them use sex the wrong way; or always want more things; or steal; or worship idols. To keep away from them altogether would mean you would have to go out of the world.

bwe@1Corinthians:5:11 @ Why should I judge the people who are outside the church? You are to judge the church people.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:1 @ When one of you has some complaint against a Christian brother, why does he take him to be judged by those who are not Christians? Why does he not take him to Gods people?

bwe@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that some day Gods people will judge the world? If you are going to judge the world, can you not judge small things now?

bwe@1Corinthians:6:4 @ So if you have complaints about things in this life, why do you take them to those who are not church people?

bwe@1Corinthians:6:6 @ But now one Christian brother takes another Christian brother to be judged by people who are not Christians.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that bad people will have no part in the kingdom where God rules? Do not be fooled. There are some people who will not have part in that place. They are those who commit adultery of any kind, those who have idols, or steal, or are always wanting more, or talk wrong things about people, or drink plenty of strong drink, or take things by force, or curse.

bwe@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Do you not know that the person who joins himself to a bad woman becomes one person with her? The holy writings say, The two people shall be like one body.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:12 @ Here is what I say to other people. (This is my word, not the Lords.) Perhaps a Christian brother has a wife who is not a Christian. If she wants to stay with him, then he should not send her away.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:17 @ Only let me say this. Every man should go on living in the way which the Lord chooses for him. He should go on as he was when God called him to be a Christian. I say this to people in all the churches.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:28 @ But, if you marry, it is not wrong. And if a woman marries, it is not wrong. People who marry will have trouble in this life. And I want to keep you out of it.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:30 @ People who cry should live as though they were not sad. People who laugh should live as though they were not glad. People who buy things should live as though they did not own them.

bwe@1Corinthians:7:31 @ And people who are busy with things in this world should not be too busy. The world as we see it is passing away.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:1 @ Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are you people not proof of the work I do for the Lord?

bwe@1Corinthians:9:2 @ If other people do not call me an apostle, yet surely I am an apostle to you. You people are the proof that I am an apostle for the Lord.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:3 @ Here is what I say to the people who say wrong things about me.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Does he not say this altogether for our sakes? Yes, he said it for our sakes. There are people who plough the ground and beat the grain. They do this work because they believe they will have a part of the food for themselves.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:19 @ Even though I am no ones slave, yet I have made myself a slave to everyone. I have done this so that I might win more people to Christ.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:22 @ When I was with weak people, I lived like a weak person. I did this so that I might win weak people to Christ. I lived like all kinds of people to save some of them.

bwe@1Corinthians:9:24 @ You know when people are running a race, they all run. But only one man will win. The way you should run is to run to win.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:7 @ Do not worship idols, as some of them did. The holy writings say, The people sat down to eat and drink. Then they got up and danced.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:8 @ We must not use sex the wrong way as some of them did. Twenty-three thousand people died in one day!

bwe@1Corinthians:10:11 @ These things happened to them to teach other people. They were written in the holy writings to teach us who are living in the last days of the world.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No testing has come to you that other people do not have. But God will not fail you. He will not allow the testing to be too hard for you. No. When the testing comes, God will make a way out for you, so that you can go through the testing.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:15 @ I talk to you as people with good sense. Decide for yourselves about what I say.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:17 @ The bread is all one loaf. In the same way, we are many people but we are one body. We all eat from the same loaf.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:20 @ No. What I mean is this. Those people give the food to bad spirits and not to God. I do not want you to have anything to do with bad spirits.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:23 @ We are free to do anything we want to do. Yes, but some things do not make people better. It is better if we do not do such things.

bwe@1Corinthians:10:33 @ I, also, try to please everyone in all I do. I do not think of what will be good for me, but I think of what will be good for many people. I want them to be saved.

bwe@1Corinthians:11:19 @ You also have groups of people who do not think the same way. Because of them you will soon learn which people please God the most.

bwe@1Corinthians:11:21 @ People take their own food and eat it without waiting. One gets nothing to eat. Another person drinks too much.

bwe@1Corinthians:11:22 @ Do you not have your own homes where you can eat and drink? Do you have no respect for the church of God? Do you want to make poor people ashamed? What shall I say to you? Shall I say you are doing well? No, you are not doing well in this matter!

bwe@1Corinthians:11:32 @ When we are punished, the Lord is teaching us to do right, so that we will not be punished with the rest of the people of the world.

bwe@1Corinthians:12:6 @ There are different ways of working, but there is only one God. He works in all people and does it all.

bwe@1Corinthians:12:7 @ And the Holy Spirit gives each one a gift so that all people may be helped.

bwe@1Corinthians:12:9 @ To another person the same Spirit gives faith, and to another person he gives the power to heal people.

bwe@1Corinthians:12:26 @ God has given each person their right place in the church. First, there are the apostles. Second, there are prophets who speak words from God. Third, there are those who teach. Then there are those who do big works. Then there are those who have the gifts to heal people, those who help in the work of the church people, those who lead and guide others, and those who speak Gods words in different kinds of tongues or languages.

bwe@1Corinthians:12:27 @ Are all the people apostles? Can they all speak words from God? Can they all teach? Can they all do big works?

bwe@1Corinthians:12:28 @ Do they all have the gifts to heal the sick people? Can they all speak in different tongues? Can they all tell the meaning of these tongues?

bwe@1Corinthians:13:1 @ If I talk with the tongues of men and even of angels, but if I do not love people, then I am only like the sound of a big horn or a loud bell.

bwe@1Corinthians:13:2 @ If I speak words from God, if I can understand all secrets, and know everything, if I can move mountains by believing, but if I do not love people, I am nothing, even though I can do all of these things.

bwe@1Corinthians:13:3 @ If I give away all I have, and if I give my body to be burned, but if I do not love people, I get nothing out of it.

bwe@1Corinthians:13:6 @ Love is not glad when people do wrong things. But it is always glad when they do right.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:2 @ The person who talks in tongues of a different language does not talk to people, but to God. People do not understand what he says. But he is saying secret things by the Spirit.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:3 @ But the person who is a prophet speaks words from God to people plainly. He helps them to believe and to be strong, and he comforts them.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:4 @ The person who talks in a different tongue helps himself. But the one who tells forth Gods word helps all the people in the church.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I wish that you could all talk in different tongues. But I want even more that you should speak words from God for all to hear and understand. The person who speaks words from God is greater than the person who talks in tongues-unless he is able to tell the meaning of his words, so that he helps all the people in the church.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:9 @ If you say words that people cannot understand, they will not know what you say. You talk for nothing!

bwe@1Corinthians:14:12 @ So it is with you. You want the gifts of the Spirit. Then you should want the gift which will make you better able to help the church people.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:19 @ But in the church meeting it is better for me to say five words with my mind, so that I will teach other people also. This is better than to say ten thousand words in a tongue of a different language.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:20 @ My brothers, do not be like children in your thinking. When it comes to doing wrong things, be like small babies. But in your thinking be grown up people.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:21 @ The holy writings say, I will talk to these people by strangers and by people who talk in strange tongues. And yet, they will not listen to me. This is what the Lord says.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:22 @ So then, tongues are a sign to people who do not believe God. They are not a sign to those who believe him. But speaking words from God like a prophet is a sign to those who believe. It is not a sign to those who do not believe.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Sometimes all the people of the church may be gathered together. If everyone talks in tongues, and if some people who do not know or believe come in, they will say that you are crazy.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But what happens if everyone speaks words from God? If such people come in, then the words from God will prove to them that they have done wrong. They will all speak to the heart.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:26 @ What shall we do about it, my brothers? When you meet together, every one of you has something to help the other. One has a song to sing. One has something to teach people. One has something which God has shown to him. One has something to say in a tongue. One can tell the meaning of a tongue. Do all of these things to help one another.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If any people talk in a tongue, only two or not more than three should talk. They must talk one at a time and someone must tell the meaning.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:33 @ God does not want things to be out of order. He wants peace in the church meeting. In all the churches of Gods people, the women should be quiet in the church meetings. They must not be allowed to talk. They must obey. The holy writings say this also.

bwe@1Corinthians:14:36 @ Do you think that you were the first ones to tell the word of God? Or do you think that you are the only people who have it?

bwe@1Corinthians:15:9 @ The other apostles are all greater than I am. I should not be called an apostle because I troubled the people of Gods church.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:12 @ You have been told that Christ was raised from death. How can some of you say that dead people do not rise again?

bwe@1Corinthians:15:13 @ If dead people do not rise, Christ did not rise.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:15 @ If this were so, we would have been telling lies about God, because we said that God raised up Christ. He did not raise up Christ if dead people are not raised up.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:16 @ If dead people are not raised, then Christ was not raised either.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:18 @ If that were true, then the people who believed in Christ who have now died, are lost.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:19 @ And if we have hope in Christ for our life in this world only, then we are the most unhappy of all people.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:22 @ All people who are of Adam die. And so also, all people who belong to Christ will live.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Another thing, what good is it for people to be baptized for dead people? If dead people are not raised, why are some people baptized for them?

bwe@1Corinthians:15:32 @ I fought against wild animals at Ephesus. If I was thinking only of life on earth, why did I do this? If dead people do not rise, then we might just as well say, Let us eat and drink because we will die tomorrow.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:33 @ Do not be fooled. If good people keep company with bad people, the good people will become bad too.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But someone will ask, How can dead people be raised? What kind of body will they have when they come back from death?

bwe@1Corinthians:15:39 @ Not all living bodies are alike. People have one kind of body. Animals have another kind of body. Fish another kind of body. Birds have another kind.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:50 @ Now I tell you, my brothers, our bodies of flesh and blood can have no place in the kingdom where God rules. A body which will die can have no room in the kingdom of God where people will never die. 51,

bwe@1Corinthians:15:51 @ Listen! I tell you a secret. We will not all die, but we will all be changed. It will happen very quickly, as fast as one can shut his eyes. It will be when the trumpet or horn is blown the last time. Someone will blow the trumpet, dead people will rise, and they will never die again. We ourselves will be changed.

bwe@1Corinthians:15:55 @ Death hurts us because we are bad people. And our wrong ways are so strong because of the law.

bwe@1Corinthians:16:1 @ Now I want to tell you about getting money together for Gods people. I told the churches in the province of Galatia how to do it. And I want you to do the same.

bwe@1Corinthians:16:9 @ A door has opened for me to do much good work here. But there are many people against me.

bwe@1Corinthians:16:15 @ You know that Stephanas and his family were the first people in the country of Greece to believe the good news. They have made up their minds to help Gods people always.

bwe@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The people in the churches of Asia send greetings to you. Aquila and Priscilla and the Christians who meet in their house send you many Christian greetings.

bwe@2Corinthians:1:1 @ I am Paul. I am called by God to be an apostle of Jesus Christ. My Christian brother Timothy and I send greetings to the church of God in the city of Corinth. We also send greetings to all of Gods people in the country of Greece.

bwe@2Corinthians:1:2 @ May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you with their loving kindness and peace. Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! He is a very, very kind Father to us. He is a God who always comforts and helps people.

bwe@2Corinthians:1:3 @ He helps us every time we have trouble. Then we are able to be strong and help other people every time they have trouble. We can do this with the same comfort that God gives us.

bwe@2Corinthians:1:8 @ Yes, we really felt our time had come to die. This was to make us trust, not in ourselves, but in God. He brings people back to life.

bwe@2Corinthians:1:10 @ But you must help us also. You must talk to God about us. When many people ask God to help us, then many people will thank God for the way he has blessed us. ourselves. Our hearts tell us that we have lived the right way in the world, and even more so toward you. We have lived a clean and true life as God wants us to. We have not trusted in the wise things of men, but in the blessing of God.

bwe@2Corinthians:1:11 @ We write you nothing but what you have been reading out to the people, and what you all know. I hope that you will really know what is right even to the end.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:11 @ But my mind was troubled because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I said goodbye to the people there and went on to the country of Macedonia. Christ. And Christ leads us to victory every time. To know Christ is like a sweet smell. And God lets us carry that sweet smell of his truth everywhere.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:12 @ We are like a sweet smell to God. It is the smell of Christ we have. We have this sweet smell among the people who are saved and among those who are lost.

bwe@2Corinthians:2:14 @ We are not like some people. They tell Gods message to make money. But we tell it with a true heart just as God told it to us. We tell it as if we stood before God. And we tell it with Christs help.

bwe@2Corinthians:3:2 @ You yourselves are our letter. This letter has been written in our hearts. All people can read it and understand it.

bwe@2Corinthians:3:3 @ All can see that you are a letter from Christ written by us. It is not written in ink, but it is written in the Spirit of the living God. It is not written on pieces of rock, but on the hearts of people.

bwe@2Corinthians:3:6 @ God has made a new start with people. He has given us a new way back to God. It is not a written law. The Spirit gives it to us. The written law brings death, but the Spirit gives life.

bwe@2Corinthians:3:7 @ The old law that brought death was written on pieces of rock. There was a very bright light when God gave it to the people. The people of Israel could not look at Moses because his face was so bright. And even as they saw it, the light on his face was going away.

bwe@2Corinthians:3:9 @ Bringing the law was a wonderful thing even though it brought death. So bringing the good news that people can be put right with God is much more wonderful.

bwe@2Corinthians:3:13 @ We are not like Moses. He put a cloth over his face so that the people of Israel would not see that the light from God was dying.

bwe@2Corinthians:3:17 @ Now the Lord is the Spirit. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, people are set free.

bwe@2Corinthians:3:18 @ All of us have no cloth over our faces. People can see that we have some of the bright and wonderful light that the Lord has. And we are becoming brighter and brighter, more and more like him. It is the Lord, the Spirit, who does this.

bwe@2Corinthians:4:2 @ We never do wrong things nor do things in secret. We do not fool people nor change Gods message. No, we tell people the truth openly. We let every person judge us for himself. We know that God sees all we do.

bwe@2Corinthians:4:3 @ If the good news which we tell is not clear to some people, it is because they are lost. They do not believe.

bwe@2Corinthians:4:9 @ People trouble us, but God is always with us. We are beaten, but we are not killed.

bwe@2Corinthians:4:15 @ All this is happening for you so that the blessings of God will reach more people. Then more people will thank God. And this will make Gods name greater. gets weak, but our heart gets new strength day after day.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:10 @ We must all stand before Christ to be judged. Then we will receive pay. If we have done well, our pay will be good. If we have not done well, our pay will not be good. must be feared, so we try to get people to believe. God knows what we are and what we do. And we hope that in your hearts you, too, know.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:11 @ No, we are not praising ourselves again. But we are telling you this so that you may really be proud of us. Then you will be ready to answer people who are proud of themselves. They are proud of the things which can be seen.But in their hearts they have nothing to be proud of.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:13 @ The love of Christ makes us do what we do to win men. We believe that one man died for all people. <FI>To God<Fi> it is as if we all died with him.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:15 @ So then we no longer know people by what we see on the outside. There was a time when we knew Christ that way, but now we do not know him that way any longer.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:17 @ But it is God who has done all this. He sent Christ to make peace with us and to bring us back to himself. Now he has given us the work of bringing other people back to God.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:18 @ God was in Christ. He brought the world back to himself. He forgave them for the wrong things they had done. And he gave us the message that will bring people back to himself.

bwe@2Corinthians:5:19 @ So we are messengers for Christ. God is using us to call people. So we are standing here for Christ and begging people, Come back to God!

bwe@2Corinthians:6:8 @ Some people respect us and some do not. Some give us a good name and some a bad name. Some people say we fool people and yet we tell the truth.

bwe@2Corinthians:6:9 @ Many people do not know us, and yet many people know us very well. We almost die and yet we live. People give us much trouble but they do not kill us. We are very sad and yet always glad.

bwe@2Corinthians:6:10 @ We are poor, but we make many people rich. We have nothing, but really we have everything.

bwe@2Corinthians:6:11 @ We talk plainly to you people in Corinth. We love you with all our hearts.

bwe@2Corinthians:6:13 @ I say this as to my own children. You should love us with all your hearts. with those who do not believe. You and they are not equal. How can people who do right, work with those who do not obey God? How can light and darkness be in the same place?

bwe@2Corinthians:6:15 @ Is there anything equal about a house of God and a house of idols? We are a house of the living God. God has said, I will live in them and walk in them. I will be their God and they will be my people.

bwe@2Corinthians:6:16 @ So the Lord says, Come away from among bad people. Stay away from them. Do not touch what is not clean. And I will receive you.

bwe@2Corinthians:7:1 @ My dear people, since God has promised us these things, we should make ourselves clean. We should clean out everything that makes our lives or our spirits dirty. We should try to be altogether holy because we respect God with fear. place in your hearts. We have not done wrong to anyone. We have not hurt anyone. We have not taken anything from anyone.

bwe@2Corinthians:8:4 @ They begged us to let them give something to help Gods people.

bwe@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I am not saying that you must do it. But I want to prove how strong your love is. That is why I have told you how other people show their love.

bwe@2Corinthians:8:19 @ We do not want anyone to say that we have not done the right thing. So we are taking care of this big gift in the right way. 21We want to do what the Lord says is right, but also what people say is right.

bwe@2Corinthians:9:1 @ Of course, I really do not need to write to you about the money to be given to Gods people.

bwe@2Corinthians:9:2 @ I know that you wanted to help. I am proud to tell the people of Macedonia about you. I tell them, The people in Greece have been ready for a year. And what you did has made most of them want to do something too.

bwe@2Corinthians:9:9 @ The holy writings say, A good man gives away many things. He gives to the poor people. He will always be a good man in the sight of God.

bwe@2Corinthians:9:11 @ You will become rich in every way. And then you will have enough to give plenty to all people. And many people will thank God for your gifts which we will bring them.

bwe@2Corinthians:9:12 @ This gift of money will help to give Gods people what they need. It will also make many people thank God.

bwe@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I beg you, do not force me to talk hard words when I come. I have made up my mind to talk hard words against some people. They think we are living for the things in this world.

bwe@2Corinthians:10:5 @ We can break down what people think and every big idea that tries to stop people from knowing God. And we can make every thought a prisoner to obey Christ.

bwe@2Corinthians:10:10 @ Some people say, Pauls letters make us listen. They are strong. But he himself is weak and what he says is not worth listening to.

bwe@2Corinthians:10:11 @ People like that should know this. When we come we will do what we have said in our letters.

bwe@2Corinthians:10:12 @ We do not want to be like those people who praise themselves. They measure themselves by their own ideas, and look at themselves to see how good they are. When they do that, they are foolish!

bwe@2Corinthians:11:13 @ Men like that are not true apostles. They work to fool people. They try to make themselves look like apostles of Christ.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:17 @ Many people talk about themselves in the world. So I will too.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:18 @ Since you are wise, you still agree to listen to foolish people.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:21 @ Are they Hebrew people? So am I. Are they Israels people? So am I. Is Abraham their father? He is mine too.

bwe@2Corinthians:11:24 @ Three times people beat me with sticks, and once they threw rocks at me. Three times I was in a boat when it broke in the sea. I have been in the water all one night and day.

bwe@2Corinthians:12:10 @ So then, for the sake of Christ I am glad to be weak, to have people say wrong things about me, to be poor, to have people trouble me, and to have hard times. When I am weak, that is the time I am really strong, have been acting like one with no sense, but you have made me do it. You should have been talking about the good things I have done. The very best apostles are not one bit better than I am, even though I am nothing at all.

bwe@2Corinthians:12:18 @ Am I saying all this just to you? Are we just trying to make ourselves look right to you? No, we say this before God and in Christ. And my dear people, I have done it all to make you better Christians.

bwe@2Corinthians:13:1 @ This is the third time I am coming to you. The holy writings say Any complaint must be proved by the words of two or three people.

bwe@2Corinthians:13:13 @ All of Gods people send greetings to you.

bwe@Galatians:1:7 @ There is really no other good news. But some people are making you think wrong things. They want to change the good news of Christ.

bwe@Galatians:1:13 @ You have heard how I lived while I was still under the law of the Jews. I troubled the church of God very much. And I even tried to stop the church people altogether.

bwe@Galatians:1:14 @ I knew more about the law of the Jews than many of my own age among my people. I wanted much more than they did to obey the laws which our fathers passed down to us, even the ones that were not written.

bwe@Galatians:1:16 @ God wanted to show his Son to me so that I might tell people who are not Jews about him. I did not go and ask any other person about the good news.

bwe@Galatians:1:23 @ They only heard people say, This is the man who used to trouble us and he is now telling others to believe what he once tried to stop.

bwe@Galatians:2:2 @ God showed me that I should go. And I told them about the good news which I tell to people who are not Jews. I told those who seemed to be church leaders when I was alone with them. I did not want my work to come to nothing-the work I had done or the work I was doing.

bwe@Galatians:2:6 @ Those men who seemed to be leaders did not teach me anything new. It does not matter to me who they were. God does not love some people more than others.

bwe@Galatians:2:9 @ The leaders saw that God had blessed me. James, Peter, and John seemed to be leaders in the church. They saw that God had blessed me. So they accepted Barnabas and me as fellow workers. They agreed that we should go to the people who were not Jews and they themselves would go to the Jews.

bwe@Galatians:2:14 @ But I saw they were not doing right. They were not obeying the true teaching of the good news. So I said to Peter in front of them all, You are a Jew. But you live the way people do who are not Jews. How then can you force those who are not Jews to live the way the Jews do?

bwe@Galatians:3:7 @ You see then, the people who believe God are children of Abraham.

bwe@Galatians:3:8 @ The holy writings say that he will put people right with himself if they believe him, even those who are not Jews. It was written down before God did it. The holy writings told the good news to Abraham ahead of time. It said, God will make you a blessing to all nations and people.

bwe@Galatians:3:10 @ A curse is on all people who are trying to become good by obeying the law. The holy writings say, Everyone is cursed who does not always obey everything that is written in the book of the law and do it.

bwe@Galatians:3:12 @ The law does not ask people to believe. It says, He who obeys the laws will live because of them.

bwe@Galatians:3:19 @ Why then was the law made? God gave it after he made the promise, because so many people were doing what was wrong. The law was to be in power only until the Son came, the one to whom the promise was made. The law was handed down by Gods angels with the help of a middle man.

bwe@Galatians:3:21 @ Is the law against the promises of God? No, it is not! If a law had been given that could give people life, then surely people would have become good people by the law.

bwe@Galatians:3:22 @ But the holy writings say it is like this. The whole world is in prison, kept there by the wrong things they have done. This was done so that people who believe in Jesus Christ would have the blessing. This blessing was promised to those who believe.

bwe@Galatians:4:2 @ He still has people who take care of him and he must obey them until the time set by his father.

bwe@Galatians:4:5 @ God sent him to set the people free who were under the law. God sent him so that we would receive our rights as sons of God.

bwe@Galatians:4:17 @ Other people are trying hard to get you on their side. But they do not mean to help you. They want to get you away from Christ so that you will listen to them.

bwe@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, you people that want the law to control you, why do you not listen to the law?

bwe@Galatians:5:11 @ My brothers, am I still telling people to be circumcised? If I am, why are people still troubling me? If it were true, the cross of Christ, which they do not like, has lost its power.

bwe@Galatians:5:17 @ People want to do wrong things that the Spirit does not want them to do. And the Spirit wants people to do things they do not want to do. The Spirit and the wrong things you want to do are against each other, so that you do not do what you yourself want to do.

bwe@Galatians:5:19 @ It is easy to see the wrong things people want to do. Both married people and those who are not married commit adultery. People make themselves unclean because of their wrong use of sex. They do things they should be ashamed of doing.

bwe@Galatians:5:21 @ They want what other people have. They even kill. They drink too much strong drink. They like to take part in loud drinking and dancing. They do other things like these. I have told you before and I tell you again. Those who do these things will not be in the kingdom of God.

bwe@Galatians:5:25 @ We must not be proud of ourselves. We must not make one another angry. We must not want what other people have.

bwe@Galatians:6:6 @ People are taught the word of God. They should give some of all the good things they have to those who teach them.

bwe@Galatians:6:10 @ So then, when we can, we should do good to all people. But most of all, we should do it to those who are in Gods family.

bwe@Galatians:6:12 @ Some people want to do things that can be seen. They try to force you to be circumcised. They want to hide from trouble which would come to them if they talk about the cross of Christ.

bwe@Galatians:6:16 @ May all who live by this rule have peace. And may God bless them. They are the true people of Israel and they belong to God.

bwe@Ephesians:1:1 @ I am Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ. It was Gods wish for me to be his messenger. I send greetings to Gods people in the city of Ephesus, to those who believe in Christ Jesus.

bwe@Ephesians:1:15 @ Here is why I always thank God for you. I have heard that you believe in the Lord Jesus and love all of Gods people. I think of you when I talk to God.

bwe@Ephesians:1:17 @ I ask him that you may understand these things in your hearts. I ask him that you may know what a great hope you have because God has called you. I ask him that you may know the rich and great blessings God has promised to his people.

bwe@Ephesians:1:21 @ And God has put all things under Christ. He has made him the head of the church people in all matters.

bwe@Ephesians:1:22 @ The church <FI>all the people who believe in Jesus Christ<Fi> is his body. The church people have everything that Christ has. He is the One who is in everything everywhere.

bwe@Ephesians:2:2 @ At one time you did those wrong things, just like the people around you. You obeyed the ruler who has the power over things in the air. That ruler is the spirit who is working now in the people who do not obey God.

bwe@Ephesians:2:3 @ At one time we too all lived like them. We lived to please ourselves. We did what our bodies and our minds wanted us to do. We were people with whom God was angry, just like other people.

bwe@Ephesians:2:7 @ He did this to show us in all times to come how much he can bless people and how kind he is. It was Jesus Christ who brought this kindness to us.

bwe@Ephesians:2:12 @ Remember you did not know Christ at that time. You were far away from the people of Israel. You had no part in the agreements which God promised to them. You had no hope and you were without God in this world.

bwe@Ephesians:2:14 @ Christ has made peace between us. He has brought both Jews and non-Jews together into one people. He has broken down the wall that divided us.

bwe@Ephesians:2:15 @ In his own body Christ made an end of the law and its rules. He did this so that in him two peoples could become one. In this way, he made peace between us.

bwe@Ephesians:2:16 @ He did this so that by the cross he might bring both kinds of people back to God in one body. And by the cross he has stopped our hating each other.

bwe@Ephesians:2:19 @ So then you are no longer strangers or people far away. But you live with Gods people and belong to Gods family.

bwe@Ephesians:3:1 @ That is why I, Paul, am a prisoner who belongs to Jesus Christ. It is for the sake of you people who are not Jews.

bwe@Ephesians:3:5 @ In the past, God did not tell his plan to people. But now the Holy Spirit has shown it to his holy apostles and prophets.

bwe@Ephesians:3:8 @ I am less than the least of all Gods people, and yet he blessed me. It is my work to tell those who are not Jews about the wonderful blessings of Christ. There are so many that we cannot know them all.

bwe@Ephesians:3:9 @ God has blessed me so that I might tell all people plainly what his plan is. God, who made all things, did not tell anyone about his plan in all the times in the past.

bwe@Ephesians:3:10 @ Now he wants those who rule and have power in the sky to know how very wise God is. They will know this when they look at the church people.

bwe@Ephesians:4:1 @ I am a prisoner who belongs to the Lord. I beg you, live the way people should live who have been called by God.

bwe@Ephesians:4:12 @ These gifts are to make Gods people better able to do their work for him and to make the body of Christ become stronger.

bwe@Ephesians:4:14 @ The body of Christ must grow so that we will no longer be like children. We are like children when we are pushed this way and that way. We change our minds every time people bring a different teaching. Some teachers teach the lies of men and fool people so that they believe wrong things.

bwe@Ephesians:4:17 @ Here then is what the Lord has told me to say. You must not live like the people who do not believe in God. They do not think clearly.

bwe@Ephesians:4:28 @ The person who used to steal must not steal now. But he must do some good work with his own hands. Then he will have something to give to the poor people.

bwe@Ephesians:4:29 @ Do not let any bad words come out of your mouth. But say good things that will help people. Then those who hear you will also be blessed by what you say.

bwe@Ephesians:4:31 @ You must stop all hate, big and small anger, loud talk, saying wrong things about people, and all wanting to do wrong things to people.

bwe@Ephesians:5:3 @ As Gods people, you should not even talk about wrong living, any kind of wrong sex or wanting things you cannot have.

bwe@Ephesians:5:5 @ You know this. There are people who use sex wrongly, and who are always wanting what others have. No such a person has any place in the kingdom of Christ and of God. He is worshipping an idol.

bwe@Ephesians:5:6 @ Do not let anyone fool you by their empty talk. It is because people do these wrong things that God is very angry. He is angry with the people who do not obey him.

bwe@Ephesians:5:8 @ You were in the dark before, but now the Lord has given you light. Live like people who have the light.

bwe@Ephesians:5:9 @ People who have the light do all that is good and right and true.

bwe@Ephesians:5:11 @ Have no part in the empty things people do in the dark. Show them that they are wrong.

bwe@Ephesians:5:15 @ Take care how you live. Do not live like people who are not wise, but live like people who are wise.

bwe@Ephesians:5:16 @ Make good use of time because people live in very wrong ways these days.

bwe@Ephesians:5:23 @ The husband is the head of the wife, just as Christ is the head of the church people. The church is his body and he saved it.

bwe@Ephesians:5:24 @ Wives should obey their husbands in everything, just as the church people obey Christ.

bwe@Ephesians:5:25 @ Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church people. He gave his life for the church.

bwe@Ephesians:5:26 @ He did that so that he might make the church people holy, when they were washed with water by Gods word.

bwe@Ephesians:5:27 @ He gave his life for the church so that one day he can look at the church and see that the people are great and wonderful. The people of the church must have no dirty spot or wrinkle or any thing like that. But they are to be holy and good.

bwe@Ephesians:5:32 @ This is a wonderful plan of God. I am speaking here of the plan about Christ and the church people.

bwe@Ephesians:6:11 @ We are not fighting against people of flesh and blood. But we are fighting against rulers and powers whom we cannot see. We are fighting against those who control the darkness of this world, and against bad spirits who have power in the air.

bwe@Ephesians:6:17 @ Always talk to God in the Spirit. Talk to him about everything and ask him for what you need. Put your mind on what you are saying, asking God to help all his people.

bwe@Ephesians:6:18 @ And also, ask God to help me to talk without fear and tell people Gods plan about the good news.

bwe@Philippians:1:1 @ We, Paul and Timothy, are servants of Christ Jesus. We send greetings to all of Gods people who belong to Christ Jesus and who live in the city of Philippi. We send greetings to the leaders of the church people and those who have been chosen to help them.

bwe@Philippians:1:11 @ I want you to be doing right by the help of Jesus Christ. That will make people praise God and will show how great he is.

bwe@Philippians:1:12 @ My brothers, I want you to know that what has happened to me has made more people know about the good news.

bwe@Philippians:1:13 @ All the soldiers here and all the other people know that I am in prison because of Christ.

bwe@Philippians:1:27 @ So whatever happens, live as people who believe the good news of Christ should live. Then, if I come and see you, or if I am away and hear about you, you will be standing strong together in one spirit. With one mind you will be working hard together for the good news.

bwe@Philippians:2:3 @ Do not try to prove you are better than others. Do not be proud of yourselves, but be humble. Think of other people as being better than yourselves.

bwe@Philippians:2:4 @ Each one of you should not think only about himself, but about other people also.

bwe@Philippians:2:12 @ My dear people, you have always obeyed me. God has saved you from wrong ways. Now show this by the good things that you do. You must live that way, not only when I am with you, but much more now that I am not with you. Think of how wrong it will be if you do not. Try hard to work out how to do it.

bwe@Philippians:2:15 @ In that way you will be completely good. No one will be able to say anything wrong about you. You will be Gods good children living amongst bad people. Among them you will shine like lights in the world.

bwe@Philippians:2:17 @ The life you live because you believe in God is like a sacrifice. Even if I am killed, it will be like wine which people pour on a sacrifice. I am happy to do this for you, and I am happy about you.

bwe@Philippians:2:21 @ All the other people think only of themselves and not of Jesus Christ.

bwe@Philippians:3:3 @ We have Gods Spirit and we worship God in the Spirit. So we are the people who have the mark of God. Christ Jesus is our reason for being joyful. We do not trust in having a mark cut in our bodies.

bwe@Philippians:3:5 @ I had the mark of a Jew cut in my body when I was eight days old. I was born of the people of Israel. I belong to the family of Benjamin, so I was born a true Jew. I was a Pharisee, so I obeyed the Jewish law very carefully.

bwe@Philippians:3:17 @ My brothers, do as I do, all of you. Look at the people who live the way we have lived.

bwe@Philippians:3:18 @ Many people live as if they hated the cross of Christ. I have often told you about them, and I tell you now with tears.

bwe@Philippians:4:1 @ And so, my brothers, I love you and want very much to be with you. I am very happy about you. And you are like a prize I have won in a race. My dear people, keep on standing firm and strong in the Lord.

bwe@Philippians:4:14 @ You people of Philippi know this too. When I first told the good news after I left the country of Macedonia, you were the only church people who helped me. You sent me money to pay my expenses.

bwe@Philippians:4:21 @ All of Gods people send greetings to you, especially the people of Caesars house.

bwe@Colossians:1:2 @ Timothy our brother, and I are writing this letter to Gods people, the Christian brothers in the city of Colossae. May the kindness of God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and give you peace.

bwe@Colossians:1:4 @ We have heard that you believe in Christ Jesus and love all of Gods people.

bwe@Colossians:1:12 @ Thank the Father who has made us ready to be with the people of God who live in his light.

bwe@Colossians:1:18 @ He is also the head of the body which is the church <FI>the people who believe in Jesus Christ<Fi>. He is the beginning, the first one to rise from death, so that he would be the first one in everything.

bwe@Colossians:1:25 @ God gave me work to do for the church people so that you might know all of Gods message.

bwe@Colossians:1:26 @ This message is about the secret plan of God. People who lived in all the past times of the world did not know about this plan. But now it has been told to Gods people.

bwe@Colossians:2:23 @ These laws look as if they are good laws. They make a show of doing things for God. They make people humble themselves in some way. They make people control their bodies in certain ways. But they have no power to keep people from doing all the wrong things they want to do.

bwe@Colossians:3:5 @ So then, put to death those things of this world which are in you. I mean these things: wrong sex, things that are not clean, a heart that is burning to do wrong things, wanting what is wrong, and wanting to have what other people have. This last one is like worshipping an idol.

bwe@Colossians:3:8 @ But now you must stop all these: being angry, hating people, wrong feelings toward others, saying wrong things about people, and dirty talking.

bwe@Colossians:3:16 @ Let your hearts be filled with the word of Christ. Be very wise when you teach people and help them to understand what is right and wrong. Sing with music. Sing praises and Christian songs. Sing to the Lord with praise in your hearts.

bwe@Colossians:3:23 @ Whatever your work is, do it gladly. Do it as you would do it unto the Lord and not for people.

bwe@Colossians:4:3 @ Talk to God about us too. Ask him to open a way for us to tell people his message. We want to tell Gods plan about Christ. That is why I am in prison because of that plan.

bwe@Colossians:4:5 @ Act the right way to people who are not Christians. Make good use of your time.

bwe@Colossians:4:6 @ Always say good things when you talk. Talk in a way that will make people listen. Then you will know how to answer people.

bwe@Colossians:4:10 @ Here are the people who send you greetings: Aristarchus, who is in prison with me, and Mark, a cousin of Barnabas. I have already told you to welcome him if he comes to you.

bwe@Colossians:4:13 @ I myself have seen how hard he has worked for you and for the people in the cities of Laodicea and Hierapolis.

bwe@Colossians:4:15 @ Give my greetings to the brothers at Laodicea, and also to Nympha and the church people who meet in her house.

bwe@Colossians:4:16 @ When you have read this letter, then be sure that it is also read to the church people in Laodicea. And be sure that you read the letter which will be sent to you from Laodicea.

bwe@1Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, send greetings to the church people in the city of Thessalonica. The people of this church belong to God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. May the kindness of God bless you and give you peace. for all of you, and we always talk to him about you.

bwe@1Thessalonians:1:4 @ The good news we brought you was not just words. It had power. It had the Holy Spirit. It made people very sure it was true. And you also know how we lived when we were with you to help you.

bwe@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ People in Macedonia and Greece have heard from you the message about the Lord. And people everywhere have heard that you believe in God. So there is no need for us to write about your faith.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ The people at the city of Philippi treated us very badly. As you know, we had much trouble. But God helped us, and we did not fear to tell you Gods good news. But many things were against us and tried to stop us.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But God chose us to tell people the good news. And so we do not speak to please men, but to please God. He is the one who knows what is in our hearts.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ We never said nice things about people that were not true. You know this. We never talked to get something out of it for ourselves. God knows this.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ My brothers, you were like the churches of God in Judea which belong to Christ Jesus. The people of your own country troubled you in the same way that the Jews troubled them.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:15 @ The Jewish leaders killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets. And they drove us out of their country. They do not please God and they are against all other people.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ They try to stop us from talking to those people who are not Jews. They do not want them to be saved. So they are always doing wrong things. And now at last, God has become very angry with them. have been away from you for a short time in body, but not in heart. We wanted very much to see you face to face, and we tried hard to come.

bwe@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ What is our hope when our Lord Jesus comes? What will make us happy and proud then? It is you people!

bwe@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ We want the Lord to help you to stand strong. And then, when the Lord Jesus comes with all Gods people, you will be holy in the eyes of our God and Father. He will see no fault in you.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:5 @ Do not have sex with a person you are not married to. Control your strong feelings. Do not act like the people who do not know God.

bwe@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ Then people who do not belong to the church will respect you. And you will not need help from anyone. here is something I want you to know about those who have died. You should not cry for them like people cry who have no hope.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ When people are saying, Everything is quiet and safe, they will be destroyed. It will all happen very quickly. And there will be no way out. It will be like the pain that a woman has when a child is born.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:6 @ So then, we must not go to sleep like other people. No, we must keep watching and not get drunk.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:7 @ Because we belong to the day, we must not get drunk. But we must be ready like people dressed for war. We must keep believing in God. We must be loving towards each other. Faith and love will be like strong clothes to cover our bodies. The hope of being saved will protect us like a hat or helmet covers our head.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:11 @ My brothers, we beg you, tell this to people who do not do what they should do. Talk to those who fear, and say something that will make them strong. Help those who are weak. Be patient with all people.

bwe@1Thessalonians:5:17 @ Do not despise people who speak words from God.

bwe@2Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy send greetings to the church people in the city of Thessalonica. This church belongs to God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

bwe@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ This will happen on the day he comes. On that day his people will show how great and wonderful he is. And all those who have believed in him will be surprised at how great he is. That means you also, because you believed what we told you.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ Do not let your minds be easily upset. Do not be troubled by a spirit, or a message, or a letter. Do not be troubled if you hear that the day of the Lord has already come. Some people will say it came from us.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Do not let anyone fool you in any way. Before the day of the Lord comes, many people will stop believing God. The Man of Evil will be seen. He is the evil one who will be destroyed for ever.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:4 @ He will put himself against God. He will put himself above everything to do with God, and above everything that people worship. He will sit in Gods holy place and tell people that he is God.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:7 @ The plan to make people wrong has already begun to work. But someone is holding back that plan. He will stop the law-breaker for a time.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ And by his bad tricks he will fool people who are lost. They will not love the true message which would have saved them.

bwe@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ They will all be judged. I mean the people who have not believed in the true message but who wanted to do what is wrong.

bwe@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ My brothers, please talk to God about us. Ask God that the Lords message may reach many people quickly and that they may receive it gladly as you did.

bwe@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ Ask God that we may be saved from bad people who do wrong things. Not everyone believes in Christ.

bwe@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ We hear that some of you are lazy. You do not work, but you trouble other people.

bwe@2Thessalonians:3:12 @ We say to such lazy people, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Do your work quietly. Earn your own food.

bwe@1Timothy:1:4 @ Tell them not to use stories that are not true, and long histories of names. These things often make people quarrel. These things do not make people believe and follow Gods way.

bwe@1Timothy:1:5 @ Here is what teachers should aim at. Gods people should love each other with a love which comes from a clean heart, a clear mind, and true faith.

bwe@1Timothy:1:9 @ He must understand that the law was not made for the man who lives right. It was made for those who do not want any laws over them, and for those who will not obey. It was made for those who do not respect God, and those who are bad people. It was made for those who do not respect anything that is holy or belongs to God. It was made for those who beat their fathers or mothers, and for those who kill people.

bwe@1Timothy:1:10 @ It was made for those who use sex in the wrong way and for men who have sex with other men. It was made for those who steal people, for those who tell lies, for those who make a promise that is not true, and for any other thing that is not right.

bwe@1Timothy:1:13 @ There was a time when I did not respect him. I troubled his people. I said wrong things about him. But he was very kind to me, because I did not know what I was doing and I did not believe in him.

bwe@1Timothy:1:15 @ These are true words and everyone should believe them. Christ Jesus came into the world to save bad people. And I am the worst of all.

bwe@1Timothy:1:19 @ Keep on believing. Do only what you know is right. Some people have not done that and they have stopped believing.

bwe@1Timothy:2:1 @ First of all, I want Gods people to do this. They must talk to God for all the people. They must ask God to help them. They must ask God to give them what they need. They must thank God for all that he gives them.

bwe@1Timothy:2:3 @ This is a good thing. And God, our Saviour, is pleased when people do it.

bwe@1Timothy:2:4 @ He wants all people to be saved and to know what is true.

bwe@1Timothy:2:5 @ There is one God. There is also one man who can open the way between God and all people. That man is Christ Jesus.

bwe@1Timothy:2:7 @ I was chosen to tell about this and to be an apostle. I am telling the truth. I am not lying. I was chosen to teach people who are not Jews. I must teach them to believe and to know what is true.

bwe@1Timothy:3:1 @ These are true words. If a man wants to be a leader of the church people, he seeks a good thing.

bwe@1Timothy:3:2 @ For a man to be a church leader, people must speak well of him. He must have only one wife. He must be able to control himself. He must use good sense. He must behave himself well. He must be kind to strangers in his house. He must be a good teacher.

bwe@1Timothy:3:7 @ People who are not church people must also speak well of a church leader, so that he will not fall into the devils trap.

bwe@1Timothy:3:8 @ In the same way, the leaders helpers must be men whom people respect. They must not say one thing one time and something different another time. They must not drink too much wine. They must not try to get rich in wrong ways.

bwe@1Timothy:3:10 @ Try these men first. Then let them help the church people if they have done nothing wrong.

bwe@1Timothy:3:11 @ In the same way, their wives must be women whom people respect. They must not tell lies about anyone. They must be able to control themselves. They must live so that people can trust them in all things.

bwe@1Timothy:3:13 @ When they have done the work of a helper well, people will respect them. If they do well, they will not fear to tell what they believe about Christ Jesus.

bwe@1Timothy:3:15 @ Then if I do not come right away, you will know what people should do in Gods family. This family is the church of the living God. The church people hold what is true and keeps it strong.

bwe@1Timothy:3:16 @ Gods plan is very great as we all know. Here it is: we saw God as a man; Gods Spirit proved he was right; angels saw him; the nations were told about him; people of the world believed in him; God took him up into heaven.

bwe@1Timothy:4:1 @ The Spirit of God says very plainly that in later times some people will stop believing. They will listen to other spirits that fool them, and to the teaching of bad spirits.

bwe@1Timothy:4:2 @ Men will tell lies and make people believe they are something when they are not. These men will have made their hearts so hard that they will not know they are doing wrong.

bwe@1Timothy:4:3 @ They will teach people that they should not marry. They will teach them not to eat some kinds of food. God made the food and he wanted people to take it and thank him for it. Those who believe and know what is true do this.

bwe@1Timothy:4:4 @ Everything that God has made for food is good. It is all right to eat it if people thank God for it.

bwe@1Timothy:4:5 @ Gods word and asking him to bless the food makes it good for people to eat.

bwe@1Timothy:4:10 @ That is why we work hard and put up with troubles. We trust in the living God who came to save all people. He makes a way for those who believe in him.

bwe@1Timothy:4:11 @ Tell people these things and teach them to do them.

bwe@1Timothy:4:13 @ Until I come, read the holy writings to people. Talk to them and teach them.

bwe@1Timothy:5:8 @ A man must care for his own people. At least he must care for his family. If he does not care for them, he shows that he does not believe in God. He is worse than one who has never believed.

bwe@1Timothy:5:9 @ A widow who is over sixty years old, may be chosen to help the church people. But she must have been the wife of one husband.

bwe@1Timothy:5:10 @ People must speak well of the good works she has done. Has she brought up children? Has she been kind to strangers and cared for them in her house? Has she washed the feet of Gods people? Has she helped people who were in trouble? Has she done every kind of good thing to help people?

bwe@1Timothy:5:13 @ Not only that, but they also become lazy. They walk about going from house to house. Not only are they lazy but they talk too much and tell stories about people. They tell things they should not tell.

bwe@1Timothy:5:16 @ Do any Christians have in their families women whose husbands are dead? If they do, they should help them. The church people should not have to care for them. Then the church can help the women who have no one to help them.

bwe@1Timothy:5:17 @ The leaders of the church people who rule well should be given greater honour and reward. At least do this for those who work hard in speaking and teaching.

bwe@1Timothy:5:19 @ Do not listen to a complaint against a leader if what he has done has not been seen and proved by two or three people.

bwe@1Timothy:5:24 @ The wrong things some men do can be seen clearly and show that they should be punished. But wrong things other people do are not seen until later.

bwe@1Timothy:6:1 @ Servants should respect their bosses in every way. Then people will not say wrong things about Gods name and what we teach.

bwe@1Timothy:6:2 @ Those who work for Christian masters should not take life easy just because the person they work for is a Christian. They should work all the better because they are loved by them. Teach these things and tell people to do them.

bwe@1Timothy:6:4 @ If there is such a person, he is full of pride. He knows nothing. He wants to quarrel and talk about words. Such things make people jealous of each other. They think wrong thoughts about each other which are not true.

bwe@1Timothy:6:5 @ They quarrel. The minds of these men are bad. They do not know what is true. They think that worshipping God makes people rich. Keep away from such people.

bwe@1Timothy:6:6 @ It is true that people are much better off if they live to please God and if they are satisfied.

bwe@1Timothy:6:9 @ People who want to be rich have trouble. They get caught in a trap. They want many foolish things which are wrong for them. Because of this, men are lost and punished for ever.

bwe@1Timothy:6:10 @ Because people love money they do all kinds of wrong things. Some people have stopped believing in God because they want money so much. And it brings them many troubles.

bwe@1Timothy:6:12 @ Work hard at believing in God more and more. Make sure that you get everlasting life; God called you to have it. You stood before many people and said that you believed in Christ. That was the right thing to say.

bwe@1Timothy:6:17 @ Tell the rich people in this world not to be proud. Tell them to trust in God not in short-lived riches. He gives us richly all things to make us happy.

bwe@1Timothy:6:18 @ Tell the rich people to do good. Tell them to do many good things. Tell them to give to other people, and to help those who are in need.

bwe@2Timothy:1:10 @ But now he has made it real through the coming of Jesus Christ who saves. He has put death out of the way. He has shown people can have everlasting life by telling them the good news.

bwe@2Timothy:2:2 @ You and many others heard what I taught. Now you must teach these things to men who can be trusted, men who will be able to teach them to other people also.

bwe@2Timothy:2:4 @ A soldier who is fighting does not live the way other people do. He wants to please the one who chose him.

bwe@2Timothy:2:8 @ Keep your mind on Jesus Christ. He was raised from death. He was of the family of David. That is the good news I tell people.

bwe@2Timothy:2:10 @ That is why I bear all my trouble for the sake of Gods chosen people. I do it so that they also may be saved by Christ Jesus and be made great for ever.

bwe@2Timothy:2:14 @ Tell people these things again. Tell them before the Lord not to quarrel in their teaching. There is no good in doing that. It upsets the minds of those who listen to them.

bwe@2Timothy:2:16 @ Have no part in foolish talk that does not come from God. That kind of talk will take people farther and farther away from God.

bwe@2Timothy:2:18 @ These men say that the time when people are raised from death is past already. That is not true. And what they say is making some people stop believing.

bwe@2Timothy:2:19 @ But the truth of God stands strong. It cannot change. These words are sure: The Lord knows the people who belong to him and, Let all those who use the name of the Lord stop their wrong ways.

bwe@2Timothy:2:24 @ The Lords servant must not fight. But he must be kind to all people. He must be a good teacher to them. He must be patient with them.

bwe@2Timothy:3:2 @ People will love themselves. They will love money. They will talk about themselves and be proud. They will say wrong things about people. They will not obey their parents. They will not be thankful. They will not keep anything holy.

bwe@2Timothy:3:3 @ They will have no love. They will not agree with anybody. They will tell lies about people. They will have no self-control. They will beat people. They will not love anything that is good.

bwe@2Timothy:3:5 @ They act as if they worshipped God, yet they do not let Gods power work in their lives. Keep away from people like that.

bwe@2Timothy:3:6 @ They are the kind who go quietly into peoples houses. There they get foolish women to believe them. These women know that they have done many wrong things. And they want to do many kinds of wrong things.

bwe@2Timothy:3:9 @ But these men will not get very far. Everyone will see that they are wrong, just as people saw that Jannes and Jambres were wrong.

bwe@2Timothy:3:11 @ You know about my troubles. You know what happened to me in Antioch, in Iconium, and in Lystra. You know how badly the people treated me. But the Lord brought me safely through it all.

bwe@2Timothy:3:12 @ Yes, all who want to live a good life in Christ Jesus will be troubled by other people.

bwe@2Timothy:3:13 @ Bad men and those who fool other people will grow worse and worse. They will fool other people, and other people will fool them.

bwe@2Timothy:3:16 @ All that is written in the holy writings comes from the Spirit of God. The holy writings are good for these things: to teach people, to show them when they are wrong, to make them see what is right, to teach them to do what is right.

bwe@2Timothy:4:1 @ I say this before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge people who are living and people who are dead. I say this to you because he will come back and rule over all.

bwe@2Timothy:4:2 @ Tell people the word of God. Be ready to do it at any time. Show people they are wrong and talk to them about it. Tell them what they should do. Be very patient with them and teach them in many ways.

bwe@2Timothy:4:3 @ The time is coming when people will not listen to good teaching. They will want to listen to the things they like to hear. And they will bring in many teachers who will teach them just what they want to do.

bwe@2Timothy:4:19 @ Give my greetings to Priscilla and Aquila, and to the people who belong to the house of Onesiphorus.

bwe@Titus:1:1 @ I am Paul. I am a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ. I have been sent to Gods chosen people so that they will believe and know what is true. This will make them more like God wants them to be.

bwe@Titus:1:2 @ I do this work because then they can hope to have everlasting life. God does not fool people. He promised everlasting life before he made the world.

bwe@Titus:1:3 @ And at the right time he sent men to tell people his word. God, who saves us, trusted me and told me to tell that word.

bwe@Titus:1:4 @ Titus, I send greetings to you. You are my true son because you believe the same way I do. May God the Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour bless you, and be kind to you, and give you peace. of Crete. I want you to finish putting things in order. And I want you to choose leaders among the church people in every city as I told you to do.

bwe@Titus:1:8 @ He must hold strongly to the true message which he has been taught. Then he will be able to teach other people what is right. And he will be able to answer people who talk against it.

bwe@Titus:1:9 @ There are many people who do not obey Gods truth. They talk about things that do no good, and they fool people by it. The Jewish leaders do this very much.

bwe@Titus:1:11 @ One of their own prophets said, The people of Crete are always telling lies. They are like wild, bad animals. They are lazy and want to eat too much.

bwe@Titus:2:2 @ Tell the older men that they must not drink too much wine. They must be men whom people respect. They must be wise. They must believe what is true. They must be loving and patient.

bwe@Titus:2:5 @ They must teach young women to have good sense, to live a clean life, to care for their homes, to be kind, and to obey their husbands. Then people cannot say wrong things about Gods word.

bwe@Titus:2:7 @ Titus, show them what they should do in all matters by the good things you do. Do not mix your teaching with things that are not true. Teach in such a way that people will respect you.

bwe@Titus:2:14 @ Christ gave himself for us so that he might make us free from all that is wrong. He gave himself to make us into clean people who belong to him and want to do good.

bwe@Titus:2:15 @ Talk about these things. Tell people they must do them. And use all your power to stop people if they are doing wrong. Do not let anyone despise you.

bwe@Titus:3:1 @ Tell the people again to obey their rulers and governments, and to do what they tell them to do. Tell them to be ready to do any honest work.

bwe@Titus:3:3 @ There was a time when we ourselves did not have understanding. We did not obey God. We were fooled by people. We did many wrong things we wanted to do. We did what we pleased. We lived our days in planning to do wrong things and wanting what other people had. People hated us, and we hated each other.

bwe@Titus:3:8 @ These are true words. And I want you to tell the people these things. Then those who have believed God will try to do good things. These things are right and help people.

bwe@Titus:3:9 @ Have nothing to do with: foolish quarrels; lists of people who lived long ago; those who make trouble and argue about the law. These things do not help people and are good for nothing.

bwe@Titus:3:11 @ You know that such people are wrong and what they do is wrong. They themselves know that they are wrong. Tychicus to you, do your best to come to me at the city of Nicopolis. I have planned to stay there while it is the cold time of the year.

bwe@Titus:3:13 @ Our people should learn to spend their time in doing good things to help people who are poor. In that way, our people will not waste their time. Greet those who believe as we do and who love us. God bless you all.

bwe@Philemon:1:2 @ We also send greetings to our sister Apphia; to Archippus who is worker in Gods army as we are; and to the people who meet as a church in your house.

bwe@Philemon:1:5 @ I have heard that you love all of Gods people and that you believe in our Lord Jesus Christ.

bwe@Philemon:1:7 @ My brother, your love made me very glad and it comforted my heart. I know that Gods people were glad because you loved them.

bwe@Hebrews:1:3 @ He shines as bright as God. He is just like God himself. He holds up the world by the power of his word. He made people clean from their wrong ways. Then he sat down beside God in heaven.

bwe@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are not all the angels spirits that help? They are sent out to help the people who will be saved.

bwe@Hebrews:2:3 @ If that is so, then we will not get away without being punished. We will be punished if we forget or throw away this wonderful way to be saved. It was the Lord who first told people how to be saved. Then those who heard him told us the true way.

bwe@Hebrews:2:4 @ God also proved that it was the true way. He gave signs. He did things that surprised people. He did many things by his power. He gave the gifts of the Holy Spirit to people just as he wanted to.

bwe@Hebrews:2:10 @ Everything was made for God and by God. It seemed good to him that Jesus life should be made complete, by going through the hard things that happened to him. This was because Jesus leads many people to heaven as Gods children. And he is the one who saves them.

bwe@Hebrews:2:11 @ Jesus, who makes people holy, and those who are made holy, all have one Father in heaven. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call them his brothers.

bwe@Hebrews:2:14 @ Gods children all have a body. That is why Jesus himself had the same. But because Jesus also had a body, he was able to die and stop the devil. The devil has power to make people die. But Jesus, by his own death, was able to stop the power of death.

bwe@Hebrews:2:15 @ People were afraid to die. All their lives they were like slaves. When Jesus died, he was able to set them free from their fear.

bwe@Hebrews:2:16 @ Jesus did not come to help angels. He came to help people who were born in Abrahams family.

bwe@Hebrews:2:17 @ So he had to be made like his brothers in every way. Then he could be a high priest to make a way to God for them, a priest who was kind and true. He could make it possible for God to forgive people for the wrong things they had done.

bwe@Hebrews:2:18 @ He had a very hard time when he was tested. But because he was tested, he is able to help people who are tested.

bwe@Hebrews:3:8 @ That is what happened when the people tested me in the desert and I became angry.

bwe@Hebrews:3:10 @ So I was very angry with the people of that time. I said, "Their minds are always dark. They have not known my ways."

bwe@Hebrews:3:15 @ God is still saying now, Today, when you hear me speak, do not make your hearts hard. That is what happened when the people turned against me.

bwe@Hebrews:3:16 @ Who were the people who heard him and yet made him very angry? It was all the people whom Moses led out of the country of Egypt.

bwe@Hebrews:3:17 @ With whom was God angry for forty years? He was angry with the people who had done wrong. And they died in the desert.

bwe@Hebrews:3:18 @ Who were the people God said would never go into his resting place? They were the people who would not listen to him.

bwe@Hebrews:4:1 @ We still have Gods promise that people will go into his resting place. So let us take care that not one of you will be kept out.

bwe@Hebrews:4:2 @ The good news has been told to us just as it was told to the people in the desert. But the message which they heard did not do them any good. Even though they heard it, they did not believe it.

bwe@Hebrews:4:6 @ So that means some people will go in. But the people who first heard the good news about it did not go in. They did not believe it.

bwe@Hebrews:4:8 @ If Joshua had led those people to rest, God would not have talked later about another day.

bwe@Hebrews:4:9 @ So there is still a rest for Gods people, like a Sabbath day.

bwe@Hebrews:4:11 @ So let us do our best to go into that resting place. Those people died in the wilderness because they did not believe. So let us take care that the same thing does not happen to one of us.

bwe@Hebrews:4:12 @ Gods word is living and full of power. It is more sharp than any sword that cuts on both sides. What God says cuts through and divides the mind and spirit. It cuts through and divides the place where the bones are joined, and the part inside the bone. What God says is able to judge the things people think and plan in their hearts.

bwe@Hebrews:5:1 @ Every high priest is chosen from among men. His work is to stand before God for people. He brings gifts and makes sacrifices to God for the wrong things people have done.

bwe@Hebrews:5:2 @ Such a high priest can be kind to people who do not know what is right and who do wrong. He knows how to share in the suffering of others because he himself is weak.

bwe@Hebrews:5:3 @ Because he is weak himself, he must make sacrifices to God for the wrong things he has done, just as he does for the people.

bwe@Hebrews:5:14 @ But meat is for people who are grown up. It is for people who have trained their minds to know the difference between what is good and what is bad.

bwe@Hebrews:6:2 @ We must not go back to teaching about baptizing people in water, about putting hands on peoples heads, about people being raised from death, and about people being judged for ever.

bwe@Hebrews:6:4 @ Some people had light in their hearts once. They knew the gift from heaven.

bwe@Hebrews:6:6 @ If people who were like that leave their faith in Christ, they cannot come to God again. They themselves nail Gods Son up on the cross again. They are holding him up to shame before everyone.

bwe@Hebrews:6:7 @ The ground drinks the water that often rains on it. It makes plants grow for the people who take care of it. And God blesses that ground.

bwe@Hebrews:6:9 @ This is the way we talk. But dear people, we are sure that better things are true about you. Yes, you show all the good ways of people who have been saved from their wrong ways.

bwe@Hebrews:6:10 @ God does what is right. He will not forget your work and the love you have shown for him. You have helped Gods people and you are still helping them.

bwe@Hebrews:6:12 @ Do not give up. But be like the people who get what God has promised. They believe God and keep on believing for a long time.

bwe@Hebrews:6:17 @ God made a promise to people. He wanted to show them that he would surely do as he said. So he promised to himself to keep the promise.

bwe@Hebrews:7:4 @ Just think how great he was! Even Abraham, the father of our people, gave him a tenth, one part out of ten, of all he brought back.

bwe@Hebrews:7:5 @ The sons of Levi, who are priests, have the right by law to take a tenth of what the people have. These people are their own brothers. They also are Abrahams children.

bwe@Hebrews:7:8 @ Here, priests take their tenth, but they are people who will die one day. But Melchizedek, who took his tenth, never dies. The holy writings say it is so.

bwe@Hebrews:7:9 @ And we say that Levi, the priest who takes the tenth from the people, gave his tenth through Abraham.

bwe@Hebrews:7:11 @ It was while the sons of Levi were priests that the law was made for the people. If those priests were good enough, why would another priest need to come who was like Melchizedek? Why would he not be like Aaron?

bwe@Hebrews:7:22 @ Also because of this, Jesus makes a better agreement with God for people.

bwe@Hebrews:7:25 @ Because of that, he is able to save people for ever, if they come to God by him. He lives for ever to talk to God for them.

bwe@Hebrews:7:26 @ We needed such a high priest as he is. He is holy. He is good. He has never done any wrong. He has been taken away from among bad people, and taken up higher than the sky.

bwe@Hebrews:7:27 @ He does not need to make sacrifices every day. The other high priests make sacrifices every day, first for the wrong things they have done, and then for the people. He did it once when he offered himself as the sacrifice.

bwe@Hebrews:8:8 @ When the people had done wrong, Gods words to them were, The days will come, the Lord says, when I will make a new agreement with the people of Israel and with the people of Judah.

bwe@Hebrews:8:10 @ After those days, the Lord says, I will make an agreement with the people of Israel. This is my agreement. I will put my laws in their minds. I will write them in their hearts. I will be their God and they will be my people.

bwe@Hebrews:9:4 @ In the Most Holy Place was a pan made of gold. In this pan a fire could burn to make a sweet-smelling smoke. The box of the agreement was also in the Most Holy Place. It was covered all over with gold. In this box were: the golden pot, which had some of the food God sent from heaven for the people in the desert; Aarons stick which grew flowers on it; and the stones which had Gods agreement written on them.

bwe@Hebrews:9:7 @ But only the high priest went into the second part. And he went in only once a year. He never went in without taking blood with him. He gave the blood to God for the wrong things he had done and for the wrong things people had done.

bwe@Hebrews:9:13 @ The priest takes the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes from a young cow that has been burned. He puts this on the people who have done wrong things. This makes their bodies clean.

bwe@Hebrews:9:15 @ That is why he is the middle man of a new agreement. He died and paid for the wrong things that were done under the first agreement. Because he is a middle man, those people who are called by God can have what he promised. This will belong to them for ever.

bwe@Hebrews:9:19 @ Moses told all the people every part of the law. Then he took the blood of young cows and goats. He put some of the blood on the book of the law itself and on all the people. He took water and red wool and a plant called hyssop.

bwe@Hebrews:9:22 @ Yes, by the old law almost everything is made clean with blood. If no animal is killed to give blood, then there is no way for people to be forgiven for the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Hebrews:9:27 @ People must die, and after that they will be judged.

bwe@Hebrews:9:28 @ So Christ gave himself as a sacrifice only once. He took on himself the wrong things many people have done. He will come a second time. But he will not come to do anything about the wrong things people have done. He will come to save those who are looking and waiting for him.

bwe@Hebrews:10:1 @ The law can show only a little about the good things that are coming. It cannot show the good things themselves. People come to worship God. But the law can never make them all right by the same sacrifices that are brought every year.

bwe@Hebrews:10:2 @ If the law could make people all right, they would stop making sacrifices. The people who come to worship would be made clean for all time, and they would not remember the wrong things they had done.

bwe@Hebrews:10:4 @ The blood of bulls and goats can never clean wrong things from peoples hearts.

bwe@Hebrews:10:6 @ Animals that are burned for sacrifices, and animals killed to clean away the wrong things that people do, did not satisfy you.

bwe@Hebrews:10:8 @ First he said, You did not want sacrifices and gifts, and animals that are given to be burned as sacrifices, and animals killed to clean away peoples wrong ways. You did not like them. These sacrifices are made to obey the law.

bwe@Hebrews:10:11 @ Every priest stands day after day doing his work. He makes the same sacrifices many times. But these sacrifices can never clean away the wrong things people have done.

bwe@Hebrews:10:14 @ By one sacrifice Christ has made right for ever all those people who are being made holy.

bwe@Hebrews:10:21 @ Also, we have a high priest who has charge of Gods people.

bwe@Hebrews:10:25 @ Do not stop going to church meetings. Some people do stop. But help each other to be strong. You must do it all the more as you see the Great Day coming closer.

bwe@Hebrews:10:28 @ Any man who broke the law of Moses was killed, if two or three people proved that he had broken the law. He will not be forgiven.

bwe@Hebrews:10:30 @ We know God who has said, I am the one who will punish people. I will repay them. Also, The Lord will judge his people.

bwe@Hebrews:10:31 @ People should fear very much to be punished by the living God.

bwe@Hebrews:10:33 @ Sometimes it was because people said and did wrong things to you and everybody saw it. And sometimes it was because you stood with others who had wrong things done to them.

bwe@Hebrews:10:39 @ We are not the people who turn back and so are lost. But we are people who believe, and so we are saved.

bwe@Hebrews:11:1 @ If people believe God, then they know they have the things they hope to get. It is the proof of things we do not see.

bwe@Hebrews:11:2 @ There were people long ago believed God. He said they were good because they believed him.

bwe@Hebrews:11:5 @ Because Enoch believed God, he was taken up into heaven without dying. The people could not find him because God had taken him. Before he was taken up, the holy writings say that he pleased God.

bwe@Hebrews:11:7 @ God told Noah about things that would happen. These things had never happened before. Noah believed God; he respected God. He built a big house on a boat, and so his family was saved <FI>from the big flood<Fi>. By believing God he showed that the other people were wrong. He was put right with God because he believed.

bwe@Hebrews:11:13 @ These people all died still believing God. They did not get the things God had promised them. But they saw them far away and were glad to see them. They said they did not belong to this world, but were only travelling in it.

bwe@Hebrews:11:14 @ People who say such things mean they are looking for a country which will be their own.

bwe@Hebrews:11:22 @ Joseph believed God. When he died, he remembered Gods promise and talked about the time the people of Israel would leave Egypt. He told them what to do with his bones when they left Egypt.

bwe@Hebrews:11:25 @ He chose to have troubles along with Gods people. He thought that was better than the fun which he could have living a wrong life. The fun would last only for a short time.

bwe@Hebrews:11:29 @ The people believed God and went through the Red Sea on dry land. When the people of Egypt tried to do that, they were drowned.

bwe@Hebrews:11:30 @ The people believed God and walked around the walls of the city of Jericho for seven days. The walls fell down.

bwe@Hebrews:11:31 @ Rahab was a woman who used her body wrongly for sex to get money. But she believed in God, so she did not die with the people who did not believe in God. This was when the men came to spy out her country. She took them into her house in peace.

bwe@Hebrews:11:33 @ Men believed God and were able to win over other nations. They made people do what was right. They got what God promised them. They were not eaten by lions.

bwe@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women had children who died and were raised to life again. Some people allowed themselves to be beaten to death. They would not go free because they wanted to rise again to a better life.

bwe@Hebrews:11:39 @ All of these people had good things said about them because they believed God. But they did not get what God had promised.

bwe@Hebrews:12:1 @ We have all these people all around us, proving to us that we should believe God. So then, like people running a race, we must take off everything that is heavy. We must put off all wrong, wrong things that get in our way. We must not stop running until we reach the mark that has been put in front of us.

bwe@Hebrews:12:2 @ We must keep our eyes on Jesus. He believed from first to last. What was put in front of him made him glad, so he did not give up when the people nailed him on a cross. He did not care about the shame. And now he is sitting beside God.

bwe@Hebrews:12:3 @ Think about him. He did not give up when bad people said wrong things about him. When you think about him, you will not become tired and your hearts will not give up.

bwe@Hebrews:12:4 @ You have been fighting against bad people. But you have not been hurt very much.

bwe@Hebrews:12:14 @ Try to be at peace with all people. And try to be holy. If a person is not holy, he will not see the Lord.

bwe@Hebrews:12:15 @ Take care that no one loses Gods blessing. Take care so that no angry feeling starts to grow in anyone. It will make trouble and many people will become bad.

bwe@Hebrews:12:19 @ You have not come to a place where a loud trumpet or horn is blown, and a loud voice is talking. When the people heard the voice, they begged that God would not say anything more to them.

bwe@Hebrews:12:23 @ You have come to the church people. They are Gods first sons, and their names are written in heaven. You have come to God who is the judge of all people. You have come to the spirits of good people who have been made right.

bwe@Hebrews:12:25 @ Take care that you listen to God who is talking now. The people were punished when they would not listen to the One who talked on earth. And we will be punished much worse if we will not listen to the One who talks from heaven.

bwe@Hebrews:13:2 @ Take strangers to your home and care for them. Some people who have done this found out the strangers were angels.

bwe@Hebrews:13:9 @ Do not listen to all kinds of different teaching and strange things. It is better to have a heart that is strong because of Gods blessing than a heart that is thinking about different kinds of food. Different kinds of food do not help people who put their trust in them.

bwe@Hebrews:13:11 @ The high priest takes into the Most Holy Place the blood of animals that are sacrificed. He gives it to God to pay for the wrong things people have done. The bodies of these animals are burned outside the town.

bwe@Hebrews:13:12 @ So also Jesus was put to death outside the town. Then he could make the people holy by his own blood.

bwe@Hebrews:13:16 @ But do not forget to do good things for people, and to give what you have to those who need it. These are sacrifices that please God.

bwe@Hebrews:13:20 @ God gives peace. He brought back our Lord Jesus from death. Our Lord Jesus cares for Gods people and he gave his blood for the agreement that stands for ever.

bwe@Hebrews:13:24 @ Greet all your leaders and all of Gods people. Those who belong to the country of Italy send you greetings.

bwe@James:1:1 @ I am James. I am a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ. I send greetings to all of Gods people wherever they live.

bwe@James:1:5 @ If any of you need to be wise, ask God to make you wise. He gives plenty of wisdom to all people. He is not angry because you ask him. He will make you wise.

bwe@James:1:25 @ But there is a law that is all right. It sets people free from their old ways. Anyone who looks into that law and remembers it, is happy because he obeys the law. He does not just listen to the law and forget it, but he obeys what the law says.

bwe@James:1:27 @ This is what God the Father wants. It is clean and right. Go and help those who have no father and mother. Go and help widow women whose husbands are dead. These people have troubles. And keep yourself clean from the wrong things in the world.

bwe@James:2:4 @ If you do these things, you think some people are better than others. You are wrong when you judge people this way.

bwe@James:2:5 @ Listen, my dear brothers. God has chosen people who are poor in this world. They believe very much. They will have a place in the kingdom which he has promised to give to those who love him.

bwe@James:2:6 @ But you made the poor man ashamed. Is it not the rich people who trouble you? Are not they the ones who take you to court?

bwe@James:2:12 @ There is a law that makes people free. It is the law of showing kindness. Always talk and live like men who will be judged by that law.

bwe@James:2:13 @ When God judges, he will not be kind to a person who has not been kind. It is better to be kind than it is to judge people.

bwe@James:3:1 @ My brothers, not many of you should be teachers. You know that we who teach will be punished more than other people.

bwe@James:3:7 @ People have been able to tame all kinds of animals, birds, snakes, and fish.

bwe@James:3:9 @ We praise our Lord and Father with our tongues. And we speak wrong words about people with our tongues, even though they were made like God.

bwe@James:3:15 @ God did not give you wisdom like that. But it comes from this world. It comes from people. It comes from bad spirits.

bwe@James:3:16 @ If people are jealous of others, their lives are not right. They do every kind of wrong thing to get what they want. They confuse and upset people.

bwe@James:3:17 @ First of all, when God makes people wise, they are holy. They do not fight. They are gentle. They listen to what other people say. They are very kind and do many good things. They do not quarrel. They do not say what is not true.

bwe@James:3:18 @ People who do not quarrel have peace. When there is peace, there is a good life.

bwe@James:4:4 @ You people promised God you would be true to him, but you did not stay true! Do you not know that if you love the world you hate God? Anyone who wants to be a lover of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

bwe@James:4:8 @ Come to God and he will come to you. You bad people, make your hands clean! You love what is good and what is wrong at the same time. Make your hearts clean.

bwe@James:5:1 @ Rich people, listen to me! Cry loud and long because of the troubles you will have.

bwe@James:5:6 @ You have punished good people. You have killed them. And they do not stop you.

bwe@James:5:11 @ God blesses those who take their troubles quietly and keep on believing. You have heard about Jobs troubles and how he took them. And you have seen what the Lord did for him at the end. The Lord is very kind and helps people.

bwe@James:5:14 @ Is any one of you sick? He should call for the leaders of the church people. They should talk to God about him and put oil on him in the name of the Lord.

bwe@1Peter:1:1 @ I am Peter. I am an apostle of Jesus Christ. I send this letter to Gods chosen people. You are like people on a journey. You live in the countries of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia. But you do not belong there.

bwe@1Peter:1:24 @ The holy writings say, People may be great. But they are like a flower on the grass. The grass dies and the flower falls off.

bwe@1Peter:2:1 @ So stop all the wrong things you do. Stop all the ways you cheat people. Stop fooling people. Stop being jealous. Stop saying wrong things about people.

bwe@1Peter:2:4 @ Come to the Lord Jesus. He is like a living stone. People did not want to use it. But God chose it. It was worth very much to him.

bwe@1Peter:2:7 @ He is worth very much to you who believe in him. But some people do not believe in him. To them he is, the stone that the men who were building would not use. But now it is the chief stone at the corner.

bwe@1Peter:2:8 @ And to them he is also, a stone on which people will hit their feet, and a rock that will make them fall down. They hit their feet on it, because they do not obey the word. It was planned that this would happen to them! But you are a chosen people. You are priests to your king. You are a holy nation. You are Gods very own people. All this is so that you will tell how good he is. He called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

bwe@1Peter:2:9 @ At one time you were not Gods people. But now you are Gods people. At one time you did not know Gods kindness. Now you do.

bwe@1Peter:2:10 @ Dear brothers, you are people who do not belong to this world. You are like visitors who are on a journey. I beg you, do not do the things your body wants to do. Those things fight against your soul.

bwe@1Peter:2:11 @ Live good lives among the people who do not believe. They may talk about you as if you do wrong things. But when they see the good things you do, they will praise God on the day he comes to help you.

bwe@1Peter:2:14 @ That is what God wants you to do. He wants you to do good things. By doing good things, you will stop foolish people from saying wrong things about you. They say wrong things about you because they do not know you.

bwe@1Peter:2:15 @ You are free people. But do not think, I am free so I can do wrong things. You are Gods servants.

bwe@1Peter:2:22 @ When people said wrong things to him, he did not say wrong things to them. When he was punished, he did not say, I will do something to you! But he trusted in God who judges what is right.

bwe@1Peter:3:9 @ You must not do wrong things to those who do wrong things to you. You must not say wrong things to those who say wrong things to you. But ask God to bless those people. This is what you have been called to do. Then God will bless you.

bwe@1Peter:3:14 @ But even if people trouble you because you do right, God will bless you. Do not be afraid of them. And do not be troubled.

bwe@1Peter:3:16 @ Keep your hearts clean. Then when people say wrong things about you, they will be ashamed because they have talked wrongly about your good Christian life.

bwe@1Peter:3:19 @ His spirit went and gave his message to peoples spirits who were in prison.

bwe@1Peter:3:20 @ In the days long ago, they did not obey God. God waited for them to do so while Noah was building the big house on the boat. A few people, only eight, were saved by going through the water.

bwe@1Peter:4:2 @ For the rest of his life on earth he will not do what people want to do. He will do what God wants him to do.

bwe@1Peter:4:3 @ In the time past you did the same things as people who do not believe God. Let that be enough. You did things you should be ashamed of. You did what you wanted to do. You got drunk. You got into fights. You took part in noisy feasting with dancing. You did wrong by worshipping idols.

bwe@1Peter:4:4 @ Those people are surprised now that you do not do the same wrong things they do. And they say wrong things about you.

bwe@1Peter:4:5 @ They will have to explain what they are doing. They will have to talk to God about what they have done. He is ready to judge living people and dead people.

bwe@1Peter:4:15 @ Do not kill. Do not steal. Do not do wrong. Do not try to boss other people. None of you should suffer because you have done these things.

bwe@1Peter:4:17 @ The time has come for God to judge people. Gods people will be judged first. If we are judged first, what will happen at the end to those who do not obey the good news of God?

bwe@1Peter:5:2 @ Take good care of Gods people. They have been given to you to care for. Do this, not because you must do it, but because you want to please God. Do it not for the money that you get for doing it, but because you are glad to do it.

bwe@1Peter:5:3 @ Do not be like a boss over the people you care for, telling them how to live. But show them how to live by the way you live.

bwe@1Peter:5:4 @ Christ the big Shepherd who takes care of all people is coming. When he comes, he will give you a crown to show that you are great. You will have it for ever.

bwe@1Peter:5:5 @ Also, you who are younger men, obey your leaders. I say to all of you, do not be proud. Do not think you are better than the others. The holy writings say, God fights against proud people, but he helps those who are not proud.

bwe@1Peter:5:13 @ The church people in the city of Babylon greet you. God has also chosen them. My son Mark also greets you.

bwe@2Peter:1:4 @ Because of these things, he has promised us things that are worth very much and are very great. He has promised these things to us so that by them you may become like God too. By them you will be kept free from the selfish desires of the people in the world. These desires lead to death.

bwe@2Peter:2:1 @ But prophets who were not true were also among the people of Israel. Also there will be teachers who will not be true among you. They will bring in wrong teaching that leads to death. They will even say that they do not belong to the Master who bought them. And so they will quickly bring themselves to death.

bwe@2Peter:2:2 @ Many people will do the same wrong things they do. And because of them, men will say wrong things about the true way.

bwe@2Peter:2:5 @ In the days long ago, God punished the world. But he saved Noah who told people what was right. And God saved seven other people. But he made water cover the world full of bad people.

bwe@2Peter:2:6 @ God burned up the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. He punished them so that no cities were left. He did this to show what would happen to bad people.

bwe@2Peter:2:7 @ But God saved Lot out of the trouble. Lot was a good man. He did not like the wrong way the bad people lived.

bwe@2Peter:2:8 @ That good man lived among the bad people and he saw and heard what they did. Day after day, the bad things they did troubled his heart because he was a good man.

bwe@2Peter:2:9 @ The Lord knows how to save good people out of the trouble that tests them. And he knows how to keep bad people until the day when he will judge them. And they are being punished even now.

bwe@2Peter:2:10 @ Most of all, he will punish people who do the wrong things they want to do and who will not obey the men who rule over them. They are very bold and proud. They do not fear to say wrong things about those who are great, even about the angels.

bwe@2Peter:2:12 @ These people are like animals that cannot think. They are like animals that are born to be caught and killed. They say wrong things about things they do not understand. They will die like the animals.

bwe@2Peter:2:14 @ They are always looking for women to have sex with them. They never stop their wrong ways. They fool people whose hearts are not strong to do right. They always want more and more money. Gods curse is on them!

bwe@2Peter:2:18 @ They say big and foolish things. They fool people who have just left those who live in wrong ways. They fool them by making them want to do wrong things with their bodies.

bwe@2Peter:3:6 @ But later on these same waters covered the world in a flood and the people died.

bwe@2Peter:3:7 @ The sky and the earth that are here now are being kept because God spoke. They are kept to be burned up. This will happen on the day when God judges people and they will die.

bwe@2Peter:3:9 @ God will do what he promised. He is not slow though, as some people think he is. But he is waiting a long time for you. He does not want anyone to die, but he wants all people to stop their wrong ways.

bwe@2Peter:3:11 @ That is the way the whole world will go. So think what kind of people you should be! Think how holy and true to God your lives should be!

bwe@2Peter:3:15 @ Think of this. He is waiting a long time so that people will be saved. Our dear brother Paul also wrote these things to you, because God has made him wise.

bwe@2Peter:3:16 @ He also tells about them in all his letters. Some things in his letters are hard to understand. Some people do not know about these things and they are not strong in their faith. They change the meaning of the things Paul wrote. They do this to other things in the holy writings also. Because they do this, they will die.

bwe@2Peter:3:17 @ My dear brothers, you know about these things before they happen. Take care that you do not do the same things that bad people do. Take care that you do not stop believing the right way.

bwe@1John:2:2 @ He himself is the sacrifice God offered to pay for the wrong we have done. And he pays for the wrong things all people in all the world have done.

bwe@1John:2:16 @ Nothing in the world comes from the Father. I mean the wrong things people like to do with their bodies. I mean the things people see and want to have. I mean all the things people are proud of in this life. These things come from the world, not the Father.

bwe@1John:2:17 @ And the world will go away and all the things in it that people like to do. But the person who does what God wants him to do will live for ever.

bwe@1John:2:19 @ They left us, but they did not belong with us. If they had belonged with us, they would have stayed with us. But they left us so that people could see that all of them did not belong with us.

bwe@1John:3:1 @ See how much the Father has loved us! We are called Gods children. It is true, we are Gods children. People in this world did not know him and so they do not know us.

bwe@1John:3:5 @ You know that Christ came to take away the wrong things people have done. He is the one who has done no wrong.

bwe@1John:3:10 @ This is how people can know who are Gods children and who are the devils children. Everyone who does not do right is not Gods child. And anyone who does not love his brother is not Gods child.

bwe@1John:3:13 @ My brothers, do not be surprised if people in this world hate you.

bwe@1John:3:18 @ My children, we must not only talk about loving people; we must show we love people by what we do for them. We must really love them.

bwe@1John:4:5 @ Those prophets belong to the world. That is why they teach about things in the world. And that is why the people of the world listen to them.

bwe@1John:4:14 @ And we have seen and we are telling you that the Father sent his Son to save the people in the world.

bwe@1John:4:17 @ That is why we love each other very much. Then we will not be afraid on the day when people are judged. We are like Christ in this world.

bwe@1John:5:9 @ We believe what people prove to us. But when God proves something it is stronger than what people prove. This is what God proved about his Son.

bwe@1John:5:16 @ Maybe a man sees his brother do something wrong, but not so bad that he must die for it. The man should ask God and God will let his brother live. God will let people live if the things they have done are not so bad that they must die for them. But there are things so wrong that a person must die for them. If he has done such as that, I do not tell the man to ask God to let him live.

bwe@2John:1:1 @ From the leader of the church people. I send greetings to the lady whom God has chosen, and to her children. I love you all because you have the truth about Christ. I am not the only one who loves you. All those who know the truth, love you also.

bwe@2John:1:7 @ Many men who fool people have gone out into the world. They believe that Jesus Christ did not come to live as a man with a body. These men belong to the one who fools people. He is against Christ.

bwe@3John:1:1 @ From the leader of the church people. I send greetings to my dear Gaius. I love you because you have Christ.

bwe@3John:1:5 @ They have told the people of the church here how you showed your love to them. Please send them on their way as God would have you do.

bwe@3John:1:6 @ They went out to do Christs work. And they have not taken any help from people who do not believe in God.

bwe@3John:1:7 @ So we should help such men with what they need. Then we are doing our part to tell the true message. I wrote a letter to the people of the church. But Diotrephes wants to be the leader. He will not listen to us.

bwe@3John:1:8 @ So if I come, I will show what he is doing. He is saying wrong things about us. And that is not all. He does not take our brothers into his own home. And he stops other people who want to take them in. He will not let them be church members any longer.

bwe@3John:1:9 @ My dear brother, do not do the wrong things people do, but do the good things people do. Anyone who does good things belongs to God. Anyone who does wrong things has never seen God.

bwe@Jude:1:3 @ My dear brothers, I wanted very much to write to you and tell you how we all are saved. But then I saw that I must write and tell you to hold very strongly to what you do believe. Fight against those who want to change it. The right way to believe has been given to Gods people once for all times.

bwe@Jude:1:5 @ You know all these things for all times. But I want to bring them to your minds. First, the Lord saved his people from the country of Egypt. At a time after that, he killed those who did not believe in him.

bwe@Jude:1:7 @ Also Sodom and Gomorrah and the other cities near them show what will happen. The people there had wrong ways of using sex and did wrong things that people should not do with each other. They were punished and are in fire that burns for ever. God did this to show what will happen to others.

bwe@Jude:1:15 @ He came to judge all people and to punish all the bad people for all the wrong things they have done. And he came to punish bad people for all the wrong things that they have said against him.

bwe@Jude:1:16 @ These men complain about the way things are. They do not like it. They do what they themselves want to do. They say big things. They say nice things to people to get what they want from them.

bwe@Jude:1:19 @ These are the men who make people go into different groups in the church meetings. They have only a mans heart. They do not have the Holy Spirit.

bwe@Jude:1:22 @ Some people are not sure what they believe. Be kind to them by sharing in their troubles.

bwe@Jude:1:23 @ Pull them out of the fire and save them. There are other people to whom you must be kind, but be careful about it. But you must hate even the clothes that bad people have worn.

bwe@Revelation:1:4 @ Here is what John wrote to the people of the seven churches which are in the country of Asia Minor: May Gods loving kindness bless you and give you peace. He lives now, he always has lived, and he will come again. May the seven Spirits bless you and give you peace. They stand in front of Gods throne <FI>chief chair of a king<Fi>.

bwe@Revelation:2:1 @ Write this to the angel of the church people in Ephesus: Here are the words of the one who holds the seven stars in his hand, the one who walks among the seven gold lamps.

bwe@Revelation:2:6 @ But this is good: you hate the things which the people called Nicolaitans do. I hate the things they do also."

bwe@Revelation:2:8 @ Write this to the angel of the church people in Smyrna: Here are the words of the one who is the First and the Last. He is the one who died but lived again.

bwe@Revelation:2:9 @ He says, "I know the things you do and the trouble you have. I know you are poor. But you are rich in some ways. I know some people do not respect God. They call themselves Jews. But they are not real Jews. They belong to Satans people.

bwe@Revelation:2:12 @ Write this to the angel of the church people in Pergamum: Here are the words of the one who has the long knife which is sharp on both sides.

bwe@Revelation:2:14 @ But I have a few things to say against you. You have some people there who believe the teaching of Balaam. He showed Balak how to trick the people of Israel and make them do wrong. They ate food that was given to idols, and they used sex wrongly.

bwe@Revelation:2:15 @ Also, you have people among you who believe the teaching of the Nicolaitans. I hate the things they do.

bwe@Revelation:2:18 @ Write this to the angel of the church people in Thyatira: Here are the words of the Son of God. He is the one whose eyes shine like a flame of fire, and his feet shine like fine brass.

bwe@Revelation:2:24 @ But some of you in Thyatira do not listen to that womans teaching. You have not learned what some people call the deep things of Satan. To you I say, I will put no other load on you.

bwe@Revelation:2:26 @ If a person wins and does what I want him to do until the end, I will make him rule with me over all peoples.

bwe@Revelation:3:1 @ Write this to the angel of the church people in Sardis: Here are the words of the one who has the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars. He says, "I know what you do. People say that you are alive, but you are dead.

bwe@Revelation:3:4 @ But you have a few people in Sardis who have not made their clothes dirty. They will walk with me in white clothes, because they are good enough.

bwe@Revelation:3:7 @ Write this to the angel of the church people in Philadelphia: Here are the words of the one who is holy and true. He has Davids key. No one will shut what he opens. And no one will open what he shuts.

bwe@Revelation:3:9 @ Look! I will bring some people who belong to Satans group. They call themselves Jews, but they are not real Jews. They lie. Look, I will make them come and kneel down in front of you. They will know that I have loved you.

bwe@Revelation:3:10 @ You have obeyed my word and been patient. So I will keep you safe in the time of trouble which will come all over the world. It will test the people who live on earth.

bwe@Revelation:3:14 @ Write this to the angel of the church people in Laodicea: Here are the words of the one whose name is Truth. What he says can be trusted. He is the one who began all that God made.

bwe@Revelation:3:18 @ I tell you what you should do. You should buy from me gold that has been made clean by fire. Then you will be rich. And you should buy from me white clothes to wear. Then people will not see that you have no clothes, and you will not be ashamed. You should buy from me healing oil to put on your eyes. Then you will be able to see.

bwe@Revelation:3:19 @ I tell off and punish the people I love. So get busy and stop doing wrong.

bwe@Revelation:5:8 @ And when he took the book, the four living beings and the twenty-four leaders kneeled down in front of the Lamb. Every one of them had a harp and a gold bowl. The bowls were full of incense that smelled very sweet when it was burned. These bowls are the words of Gods people when they talk to him.

bwe@Revelation:5:9 @ And the four living beings and the leaders sang a new song. The new song was: You are able to take the book and to open its locks, because you were killed. You have set the people free and bought them for God with the cost of your blood. They are from every tribe, language, nation, and country.

bwe@Revelation:6:8 @ I saw a horse the colour of ashes. The name of the man who rode it was Death. And the one who controls the world of the dead followed him. They were given power over a fourth part of the world. They could kill people with a sword, or by making them go without food to eat, or by making them sick, or with wild animals.

bwe@Revelation:6:9 @ When the Lamb opened the fifth lock, I saw the souls of people who had been killed. They were under the holy table where incense is burned. They had been killed because they believed Gods word and said they believed it.

bwe@Revelation:6:10 @ They called in a loud voice, Lord, you are holy and true. How long will you wait before you judge and punish the people on earth because they killed us?

bwe@Revelation:6:12 @ I saw the Lamb opening the sixth lock. The earth shook very much. The sun became very dark, like the black cloth people wear to show they are sad. The full moon became red like blood.

bwe@Revelation:6:15 @ The kings of the world, the great men, the army captains, the rich people, the strong people, every slave, and every freeman hid themselves in holes and the rocks on the big hills.

bwe@Revelation:7:2 @ Then I saw another angel coming up from the place where the sun rises. He had something to put the mark of the living God on people. He called out in a loud voice to the four angels. They had been given power to hurt the earth and the sea.

bwe@Revelation:7:4 @ And I heard that one hundred and forty-four thousand people were marked. They were from every tribe of Israel.

bwe@Revelation:7:5 @ Twelve thousand people were marked from each of these tribes: Judah, Reuben, Gad, Asher, Naphtali, Manasseh, Simeon, Levi, Issachar, Zebulun, Joseph, Benjamin.

bwe@Revelation:7:9 @ After this, I looked and saw many people. There were so many that no person could count them all. They were from every country, tribe, nation, and language. I saw them standing in front of the throne and the Lamb. They wore white clothes and they had palm branches in their hands.

bwe@Revelation:7:10 @ They called in a loud voice and said, Our God who sits on the throne, and the Lamb: they are the Ones who save people. Salvation belongs to them!

bwe@Revelation:7:13 @ Then one of the leaders talked to me. He said, Who are these people wearing white clothes? Where did they come from?

bwe@Revelation:7:14 @ Then I said to him, Sir, I do not know. And he said to me, These are the people who have had much trouble. They have washed their clothes in the blood of the Lamb and made them white.

bwe@Revelation:8:3 @ Another angel came and stood at the altar. He had a gold bowl. Plenty of incense was given to him. He was to put it with all the words of all Gods people when they talk to him. He was to put it on the gold altar in front of Gods throne.

bwe@Revelation:8:4 @ The sweet smelling smoke of the burning incense went up at the same time as the prayer words of Gods people. They went up from the hand of the angel that was standing in front of God.

bwe@Revelation:8:13 @ Then I looked and heard an angel who was flying across the sky. He called in a loud voice and said, Trouble! Trouble! Trouble to the people who live on earth! Big trouble will come when the sound of the other trumpets is heard. The three angels are now ready to blow their trumpets!

bwe@Revelation:9:3 @ Then out of the smoke came locusts on the earth like big grasshoppers. They were given the power to hurt people the way that scorpions do.

bwe@Revelation:9:4 @ They were told not to spoil any of the grass, nor any green plant, nor any tree on earth. They were told to hurt only the people who did not have Gods mark on their foreheads.

bwe@Revelation:9:6 @ In those days people will look for death, but they will not be able to find it. They will want to die, but death will fly away from them.

bwe@Revelation:9:7 @ The locusts looked like horses ready to go to war. On their heads were gold crowns. And they had faces like people.

bwe@Revelation:9:10 @ The locusts had tails like scorpions that could strike people and hurt them for five months.

bwe@Revelation:9:15 @ So the four angels were let free. They were ready for the hour, the day, the month, and the year when they would kill a third of the people.

bwe@Revelation:9:17 @ I saw what the horses and the men that sat on them looked like. The bodies of the men were covered by pieces of iron that looked red like fire and blue, and yellow. The heads of the horses were like lions heads. Fire, smoke and dust came out of their mouths. The dust was sulphur which choked and killed people when it burned in the fire.

bwe@Revelation:9:18 @ By these three big troubles a third part of the people were killed. They were killed by the fire, smoke, and choking sulphur dust that came out of the mouths of the horses.

bwe@Revelation:9:19 @ The power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails. Their tails have heads and are like snakes. They hurt people with them.

bwe@Revelation:9:20 @ The other people were not killed by these big troubles. But they did not stop worshipping what they had made with their hands. They did not stop worshipping bad spirits and idols made of gold, silver, brass, stone, and wood. These idols cannot see or hear or walk.

bwe@Revelation:11:1 @ Then I was given a long stick. And he said, Go and measure Gods temple and the altar, and count the people who worship there.

bwe@Revelation:11:2 @ Do not measure the part outside the temple. Leave it out, because it has been given to the people who do not believe in God. They will walk in the holy city for forty-two months.

bwe@Revelation:11:3 @ I will give power to the two men who speak for me. They will speak words from God. They will continue to speak for forty-two months. They will wear clothes like people wear to show they are sad.

bwe@Revelation:11:9 @ People from many nations, tribes, languages, and countries will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days. They will not let anyone bury them.

bwe@Revelation:11:10 @ The people on earth will be very glad to see them dead. They will have a happy time. They will give gifts to each other because these two men from God had troubled the people on the earth.

bwe@Revelation:11:13 @ At that time, the earth shook very much. A tenth part of the city fell down. Seven thousand people were killed by the shaking of the earth. The other people were very much afraid and they give glory to God in heaven.

bwe@Revelation:11:18 @ The people who did not believe you became angry. But now you are angry. It is time for dead people to be judged. And it is time to reward your servants, the prophets of God, and your holy people and all who respect your name-those who are great and those who are not so great. It is time to destroy those who destroy the earth.

bwe@Revelation:12:9 @ The dragon was thrown down. He was that old snake who is called the devil and Satan. He fools all the people in the world. He was thrown down to earth and his angels were thrown down with him.

bwe@Revelation:12:10 @ I heard a loud voice in the sky. It said, Now the time has come for God to save people. He will use his strength. His kingdom will come and his Christ will use his power. The one who says bad things about our brothers to God day and night has been thrown down.

bwe@Revelation:13:3 @ One of its heads had a cut, bad enough to kill it. But the bad cut was healed. All the people on earth were much surprised and followed the beast.

bwe@Revelation:13:7 @ It was also given power to fight against Gods people and to win the fight against them. It was given power to rule over every tribe, nation, language, and country.

bwe@Revelation:13:10 @ Anyone who puts people in prison will go to prison. Any one who kills others with a long knife or sword will be killed by a long knife or sword. This is why Gods people are patient and keep on believing.

bwe@Revelation:13:14 @ It fools the people who live on earth by the wonderful things which it has been given power to do, while the first beast looks on. It tells the people on earth to make an idol like the first beast that was cut by the big knife but lived.

bwe@Revelation:13:16 @ It makes all the people take a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads. That means all people, those who are great and those who are not great, the poor, free men, and slaves.

bwe@Revelation:14:1 @ The song of the 144,000 Then I looked and saw the Lamb standing on a hill called Zion. With him were one hundred and forty-four thousand people. They had his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads.

bwe@Revelation:14:2 @ I heard a sound from the sky like the sound of much water flowing, and like the sound of much thunder. The sound I heard was like people playing music on their harps.

bwe@Revelation:14:3 @ They were singing a new song in front of Gods chief chair, in front of the four living beings and the leaders. No one could learn that song but the one hundred and forty-four thousand people. They have been bought from the earth.

bwe@Revelation:14:4 @ They are the people who have not had sex with women. They are clean. They are the people who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They lived among people on earth. They have been bought from the earth. They are the first among men to have been bought for God and the Lamb.

bwe@Revelation:14:6 @ Then I saw another angel flying across the sky. He had good news that will last for ever to tell the people who live on the earth. The good news is for every country, tribe, language, and nation.

bwe@Revelation:14:7 @ He said in a loud voice, Respect and honour God and give him glory! The time has come for him to judge people, to tell them how good or bad they are. Worship him. He made heaven and earth, the sea, and the rivers.

bwe@Revelation:14:8 @ A second angel followed him. He said, The great city of Babylon has fallen down. It has fallen down because it filled all the countries with its wrong ways. It has made people to suffer Gods anger.

bwe@Revelation:14:10 @ A third angel followed the other two. He said in a loud voice, Any person who worships the beast or its idol, and takes its mark on his forehead or on his hand, will also feel Gods anger. He is very angry. That person will be burned with fire and dust that chokes people when it burns. He will be burned in front of the holy angels and the Lamb.

bwe@Revelation:14:12 @ This is why Gods people must be patient. They are the ones who keep the laws of God and believe in Jesus.

bwe@Revelation:15:1 @ I saw another big and wonderful thing in the sky. I saw seven angels who carried the seven big troubles. They are the last troubles. When these troubles have come, Gods anger is ended. 2I saw something that looked like a sea of glass mixed with fire. And I saw those people who had won the fight against the beast, and its idol, and its mark, and the number of its name. They were standing on the sea of glass and they had the harps of God in their hands.

bwe@Revelation:15:3 @ Who will not respect and honour you and praise your name, Lord? You are the only one who is holy. People from all countries will come and worship you because they have seen that you are right and fair.

bwe@Revelation:16:2 @ So the first angel went and poured his bowl on the earth. Then a bad, dirty sore came on the people who had the mark of the animal on them, and who worshipped its idol.

bwe@Revelation:16:6 @ They killed Gods people and the prophets. Now you have given them blood to drink. This is what they should get!

bwe@Revelation:16:7 @ I heard the people under the altar say, Yes, Lord God, you have all power! The way you punish is true and right!

bwe@Revelation:16:8 @ The fourth angel poured his bowl on the sun. Then the sun was given the power to burn people with fire.

bwe@Revelation:16:9 @ People were burned because the sun was so hot. And they spoke wrongly about the name of God, cursing him because he had the power to send these troubles. But they would not stop the wrong things they were doing. They would not respect and honour God.

bwe@Revelation:16:10 @ The fifth angel poured his bowl on the throne of the beast. The place where he ruled became dark. People bit their tongues because of the pain they had.

bwe@Revelation:16:18 @ There were lightnings, loud noises, and thunder. The earth shook very much. It shook more than it had ever shaken since people have been on earth.

bwe@Revelation:17:2 @ The kings on earth have been with her and copied her. And the people on earth gladly copy her wrong ways.

bwe@Revelation:17:5 @ A name was written on her forehead. It has a secret meaning. The name is Great Babylon, the mother of all people who give their bodies for wrong ways of using sex. The mother of all things done on earth too bad to talk about.

bwe@Revelation:17:6 @ And I saw the woman was drunk because of the blood she drank. It was the blood of Gods people, and the blood of people who had been killed because they belonged to Jesus. When I saw her, I was very much surprised.

bwe@Revelation:17:8 @ The beast that you saw was alive at one time, then it was dead. It will come up from the big hole that has no bottom and it will be killed. The people on earth will be surprised when they see the beast, because it was alive and then it was dead, and it comes alive again. These are the people who do not have their names written in the book of life from the time the world was made.

bwe@Revelation:17:15 @ And the angel said to me, You saw the water on which the bad woman is sitting. The water is the many nations, many people, many countries, and many languages.

bwe@Revelation:18:2 @ He called in a loud voice and said, The big city of Babylon has fallen down! It has fallen down! Bad spirits live in it. All bad spirits hide there. And all kinds of dirty birds that people hate hide there.

bwe@Revelation:18:4 @ Then I heard another voice from the sky that said, Come out of it, my people, so that you will have no part in the wrong things it does. Come out of it so that you will not have the big troubles it will have.

bwe@Revelation:18:13 @ They have spices and perfume. They have incense and a sweet-smelling oil. They have frankincense and wine and oil. They have fine flour and wheat. They have cows, sheep, horses, and wagons. They have slaves and people to sell.

bwe@Revelation:18:20 @ Be glad for what has happened to it, all you who are in heaven, Gods people, apostles and prophets. God has punished it for what it did to you!

bwe@Revelation:18:22 @ People will not hear music in you again. No harps, no singing, no pipes or horns will ever be heard in you again. No one will make things in you again. The noise of people grinding grain will not be heard in you again.

bwe@Revelation:18:23 @ No lamp will shine in you again. No one will hear the voice of people being married. Your traders were the big people of the world. All the countries were fooled by your witch doctors.
