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

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

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

rsv@Romans:2:5 @ But by your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed.

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

rsv@Romans:2:10 @ but glory and honor and peace for every one who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek.

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

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

rsv@Romans:2:25 @ Circumcision indeed is of value if you obey the law; but if you break the law, your circumcision becomes uncircumcision.

rsv@Romans:2:27 @ Then those who are physically uncircumcised but keep the law will condemn you who have the written code and circumcision but break the law.

rsv@Romans:2:29 @ He is a Jew who is one inwardly, and real circumcision is a matter of the heart, spiritual and not literal. His praise is not from men but from God.

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

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

rsv@Romans:3:21 @ But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from law, although the law and the prophets bear witness to it,

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

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

rsv@Romans:4:4 @ Now to one who works, his wages are not reckoned as a gift but as his due.

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

rsv@Romans:4:10 @ How then was it reckoned to him? Was it before or after he had been circumcised? It was not after, but before he was circumcised.

rsv@Romans:4:12 @ and likewise the father of the circumcised who are not merely circumcised but also follow the example of the faith which our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.

rsv@Romans:4:13 @ The promise to Abraham and his descendants, that they should inherit the world, did not come through the law but through the righteousness of faith.

rsv@Romans:4:15 @ For the law brings wrath, but where there is no law there is no transgression.

rsv@Romans:4:16 @ That is why it depends on faith, in order that the promise may rest on grace and be guaranteed to all his descendants-- not only to the adherents of the law but also to those who share the faith of Abraham, for he is the father of us all,

rsv@Romans:4:20 @ No distrust made him waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God,

rsv@Romans:4:23 @ But the words, "it was reckoned to him," were written not for his sake alone,

rsv@Romans:4:24 @ but for ours also. It will be reckoned to us who believe in him that raised from the dead Jesus our Lord,

rsv@Romans:5:8 @ But God shows his love for us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.

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

rsv@Romans:5:13 @ sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law.

rsv@Romans:5:15 @ But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man's trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift in the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many.

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

rsv@Romans:5:20 @ Law came in, to increase the trespass; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more,

rsv@Romans:6:8 @ But if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him.

rsv@Romans:6:10 @ The death he died he died to sin, once for all, but the life he lives he lives to God.

rsv@Romans:6:13 @ Do not yield your members to sin as instruments of wickedness, but yield yourselves to God as men who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments of righteousness.

rsv@Romans:6:14 @ For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace.

rsv@Romans:6:15 @ What then? Are we to sin because we are not under law but under grace? By no means!

rsv@Romans:6:17 @ But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed,

rsv@Romans:6:21 @ But then what return did you get from the things of which you are now ashamed? The end of those things is death.

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

rsv@Romans:6:23 @ For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

rsv@Romans:7:2 @ Thus a married woman is bound by law to her husband as long as he lives; but if her husband dies she is discharged from the law concerning the husband.

rsv@Romans:7:3 @ Accordingly, she will be called an adulteress if she lives with another man while her husband is alive. But if her husband dies she is free from that law, and if she marries another man she is not an adulteress.

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

rsv@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, finding opportunity in the commandment, wrought in me all kinds of covetousness. Apart from the law sin lies dead.

rsv@Romans:7:9 @ I was once alive apart from the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died;

rsv@Romans:7:14 @ We know that the law is spiritual; but I am carnal, sold under sin.

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

rsv@Romans:7:17 @ So then it is no longer I that do it, but sin which dwells within me.

rsv@Romans:7:18 @ For I know that nothing good dwells within me, that is, in my flesh. I can will what is right, but I cannot do it.

rsv@Romans:7:19 @ For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I do.

rsv@Romans:7:20 @ Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I that do it, but sin which dwells within me.

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

rsv@Romans:7:25 @ Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I of myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

rsv@Romans:8:4 @ in order that the just requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

rsv@Romans:8:5 @ For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.

rsv@Romans:8:6 @ To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.

rsv@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh, you are in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Any one who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.

rsv@Romans:8:10 @ But if Christ is in you, although your bodies are dead because of sin, your spirits are alive because of righteousness.

rsv@Romans:8:13 @ for if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body you will live.

rsv@Romans:8:15 @ For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the spirit of sonship. When we cry, "Abba! Father!"

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

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

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

rsv@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with sighs too deep for words.

rsv@Romans:8:32 @ He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, will he not also give us all things with him?

rsv@Romans:9:6 @ But it is not as though the word of God had failed. For not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel,

rsv@Romans:9:7 @ and not all are children of Abraham because they are his descendants; but "Through Isaac shall your descendants be named."

rsv@Romans:9:8 @ This means that it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are reckoned as descendants.

rsv@Romans:9:10 @ And not only so, but also when Rebecca had conceived children by one man, our forefather Isaac,

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

rsv@Romans:9:13 @ As it is written, "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated."

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

rsv@Romans:9:20 @ But who are you, a man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say to its molder, "Why have you made me thus?"

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

rsv@Romans:9:31 @ but that Israel who pursued the righteousness which is based on law did not succeed in fulfilling that law.

rsv@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they did not pursue it through faith, but as if it were based on works. They have stumbled over the stumbling stone,

rsv@Romans:10:2 @ I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but it is not enlightened.

rsv@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness based on faith says, Do not say in your heart, "Who will ascend into heaven?" (that is, to bring Christ down)

rsv@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? The word is near you, on your lips and in your heart (that is, the word of faith which we preach);

rsv@Romans:10:14 @ But how are men to call upon him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher?

rsv@Romans:10:16 @ But they have not all obeyed the gospel; for Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?"

rsv@Romans:10:18 @ But I ask, have they not heard? Indeed they have; for "Their voice has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world."

rsv@Romans:10:21 @ But of Israel he says, "All day long I have held out my hands to a disobedient and contrary people."

rsv@Romans:11:4 @ But what is God's reply to him? "I have kept for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Ba'al."

rsv@Romans:11:6 @ But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace.

rsv@Romans:11:7 @ What then? Israel failed to obtain what it sought. The elect obtained it, but the rest were hardened,

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

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

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

rsv@Romans:11:17 @ But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, were grafted in their place to share the richness of the olive tree,

rsv@Romans:11:18 @ do not boast over the branches. If you do boast, remember it is not you that support the root, but the root that supports you.

rsv@Romans:11:20 @ That is true. They were broken off because of their unbelief, but you stand fast only through faith. So do not become proud, but stand in awe.

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

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

rsv@Romans:11:30 @ Just as you were once disobedient to God but now have received mercy because of their disobedience,

rsv@Romans:12:2 @ Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

rsv@Romans:12:3 @ For by the grace given to me I bid every one among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith which God has assigned him.

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

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

rsv@Romans:12:16 @ Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly; never be conceited.

rsv@Romans:12:17 @ Repay no one evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.

rsv@Romans:12:19 @ Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God; for it is written, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord."

rsv@Romans:12:21 @ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

rsv@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of him who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval,

rsv@Romans:13:4 @ for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain; he is the servant of God to execute his wrath on the wrongdoer.

rsv@Romans:13:5 @ Therefore one must be subject, not only to avoid God's wrath but also for the sake of conscience.

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

rsv@Romans:14:1 @ As for the man who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not for disputes over opinions.

rsv@Romans:14:13 @ Then let us no more pass judgment on one another, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother.

rsv@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but it is unclean for any one who thinks it unclean.

rsv@Romans:14:17 @ For the kingdom of God is not food and drink but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit;

rsv@Romans:14:20 @ Do not, for the sake of food, destroy the work of God. Everything is indeed clean, but it is wrong for any one to make others fall by what he eats;

rsv@Romans:14:23 @ But he who has doubts is condemned, if he eats, because he does not act from faith; for whatever does not proceed from faith is sin.

rsv@Romans:15:3 @ For Christ did not please himself; but, as it is written, "The reproaches of those who reproached thee fell on me."

rsv@Romans:15:15 @ But on some points I have written to you very boldly by way of reminder, because of the grace given me by God

rsv@Romans:15:21 @ but as it is written, "They shall see who have never been told of him, and they shall understand who have never heard of him."

rsv@Romans:15:23 @ But now, since I no longer have any room for work in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to come to you,

rsv@Romans:15:26 @ For Macedo'nia and Acha'ia have been pleased to make some contribution for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem;

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

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

rsv@Romans:16:25 @ but is now disclosed and through the prophetic writings is made known to all nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith--

rsv@1Corinthians:1:10 @ I appeal to you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree and that there be no dissensions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:1:24 @ but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:27 @ but God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise, God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong,

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

rsv@1Corinthians:2:5 @ that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:2:9 @ But, as it is written, "What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man conceived, what God has prepared for those who love him,"

rsv@1Corinthians:2:12 @ Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might understand the gifts bestowed on us by God.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:2:15 @ The spiritual man judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:16 @ "For who has known the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?" But we have the mind of Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:1 @ But I, brethren, could not address you as spiritual men, but as men of the flesh, as babes in Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:6 @ I planted, Apol'los watered, but God gave the growth.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:7 @ So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:15 @ If any man's work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:3 @ But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. I do not even judge myself.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:4 @ I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:10 @ We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are held in honor, but we in disrepute.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write this to make you ashamed, but to admonish you as my beloved children.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you soon, if the Lord wills, and I will find out not the talk of these arrogant people but their power.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:20 @ For the kingdom of God does not consist in talk but in power.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But rather I wrote to you not to associate with any one who bears the name of brother if he is guilty of immorality or greed, or is an idolater, reviler, drunkard, or robber--not even to eat with such a one.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:6 @ but brother goes to law against brother, and that before unbelievers?

rsv@1Corinthians:6:8 @ But you yourselves wrong and defraud, and that even your own brethren.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:6:12 @ "All things are lawful for me," but not all things are helpful. "All things are lawful for me," but I will not be enslaved by anything.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:13 @ "Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food"--and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:17 @ But he who is united to the Lord becomes one spirit with him.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:18 @ Shun immorality. Every other sin which a man commits is outside the body; but the immoral man sins against his own body.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:7:4 @ For the wife does not rule over her own body, but the husband does; likewise the husband does not rule over his own body, but the wife does.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not refuse one another except perhaps by agreement for a season, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, lest Satan tempt you through lack of self-control.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:7 @ I wish that all were as I myself am. But each has his own special gift from God, one of one kind and one of another.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:9 @ But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to be aflame with passion.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:10 @ To the married I give charge, not I but the Lord, that the wife should not separate from her husband

rsv@1Corinthians:7:11 @ (but if she does, let her remain single or else be reconciled to her husband)--and that the husband should not divorce his wife.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband is consecrated through his wife, and the unbelieving wife is consecrated through her husband. Otherwise, your children would be unclean, but as it is they are holy.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbelieving partner desires to separate, let it be so; in such a case the brother or sister is not bound. For God has called us to peace.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:19 @ For neither circumcision counts for anything nor uncircumcision, but keeping the commandments of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you a slave when called? Never mind. But if you can gain your freedom, avail yourself of the opportunity.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:25 @ Now concerning the unmarried, I have no command of the Lord, but I give my opinion as one who by the Lord's mercy is trustworthy.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:28 @ But if you marry, you do not sin, and if a girl marries she does not sin. Yet those who marry will have worldly troubles, and I would spare you that.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:33 @ but the married man is anxious about worldly affairs, how to please his wife,

rsv@1Corinthians:7:34 @ and his interests are divided. And the unmarried woman or girl is anxious about the affairs of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit; but the married woman is anxious about worldly affairs, how to please her husband.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:7:37 @ But whoever is firmly established in his heart, being under no necessity but having his desire under control, and has determined this in his heart, to keep her as his betrothed, he will do well.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:40 @ But in my judgment she is happier if she remains as she is. And I think that I have the Spirit of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now concerning food offered to idols: we know that "all of us possess knowledge." "Knowledge" puffs up, but love builds up.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:3 @ But if one loves God, one is known by him.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:8:7 @ However, not all possess this knowledge. But some, through being hitherto accustomed to idols, eat food as really offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:9:17 @ For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward; but if not of my own will, I am entrusted with a commission.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:21 @ To those outside the law I became as one outside the law--not being without law toward God but under the law of Christ--that I might win those outside the law.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:24 @ Do you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but only one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain it.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:25 @ Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:27 @ but I pommel my body and subdue it, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:10:23 @ "All things are lawful," but not all things are helpful. "All things are lawful," but not all things build up.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:24 @ Let no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:10:33 @ just as I try to please all men in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:3 @ But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a woman is her husband, and the head of Christ is God.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ but any woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled dishonors her head--it is the same as if her head were shaven.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman will not veil herself, then she should cut off her hair; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her wear a veil.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:7 @ For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:8 @ (For man was not made from woman, but woman from man.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:9 @ Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.)

rsv@1Corinthians:11:15 @ but if a woman has long hair, it is her pride? For her hair is given to her for a covering.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:11:31 @ But if we judged ourselves truly, we should not be judged.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged by the Lord, we are chastened so that we may not be condemned along with the world.

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

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:12:14 @ For the body does not consist of one member but of many.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But as it is, God arranged the organs in the body, each one of them, as he chose.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:24 @ which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving the greater honor to the inferior part,

rsv@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there may be no discord in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:13:1 @ If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:13:3 @ If I give away all I have, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:6 @ it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:10 @ but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall understand fully, even as I have been fully understood.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:13 @ So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:2 @ For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more to prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than he who speaks in tongues, unless some one interprets, so that the church may be edified.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:11 @ but if I do not know the meaning of the language, I shall be a foreigner to the speaker and the speaker a foreigner to me.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:14 @ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays but my mind is unfruitful.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:17 @ For you may give thanks well enough, but the other man is not edified.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:20 @ Brethren, do not be children in your thinking; be babes in evil, but in thinking be mature.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:22 @ Thus, tongues are a sign not for believers but for unbelievers, while prophecy is not for unbelievers but for believers.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:24 @ But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or outsider enters, he is convicted by all, he is called to account by all,

rsv@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there is no one to interpret, let each of them keep silence in church and speak to himself and to God.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:33 @ For God is not a God of confusion but of peace. As in all the churches of the saints,

rsv@1Corinthians:14:34 @ the women should keep silence in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be subordinate, as even the law says.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:40 @ but all things should be done decently and in order.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God which is with me.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:23 @ But each in his own order: Christ the first fruits, then at his coming those who belong to Christ.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:15:35 @ But some one will ask, "How are the dead raised? With what kind of body do they come?"

rsv@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And what you sow is not the body which is to be, but a bare kernel, perhaps of wheat or of some other grain.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:38 @ But God gives it a body as he has chosen, and to each kind of seed its own body.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:39 @ For not all flesh is alike, but there is one kind for men, another for animals, another for birds, and another for fish.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:15:46 @ But it is not the spiritual which is first but the physical, and then the spiritual.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:51 @ Lo! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

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

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

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:16:12 @ As for our brother Apol'los, I strongly urged him to visit you with the other brethren, but it was not at all his will to come now. He will come when he has opportunity.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:9 @ Why, we felt that we had received the sentence of death; but that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead;

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

rsv@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For we write you nothing but what you can read and understand; I hope you will understand fully,

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

rsv@2Corinthians:1:21 @ But it is God who establishes us with you in Christ, and has commissioned us;

rsv@2Corinthians:1:23 @ But I call God to witness against me--it was to spare you that I refrained from coming to Corinth.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:2 @ For if I cause you pain, who is there to make me glad but the one whom I have pained?

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

rsv@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if any one has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but in some measure--not to put it too severely-- to you all.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:2:14 @ But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumph, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God's word; but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:3 @ and you show that you are a letter from Christ delivered by us, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:6 @ who has made us competent to be ministers of a new covenant, not in a written code but in the Spirit; for the written code kills, but the Spirit gives life.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:14 @ But their minds were hardened; for to this day, when they read the old covenant, that same veil remains unlifted, because only through Christ is it taken away.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:16 @ but when a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:4:5 @ For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:7 @ But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, to show that the transcendent power belongs to God and not to us.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:8 @ We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair;

rsv@2Corinthians:4:9 @ persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;

rsv@2Corinthians:4:12 @ So death is at work in us, but life in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:18 @ because we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen; for the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men; but what we are is known to God, and I hope it is known also to your conscience.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:5:15 @ And he died for all, that those who live might live no longer for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:7:12 @ So although I wrote to you, it was not on account of the one who did the wrong, nor on account of the one who suffered the wrong, but in order that your zeal for us might be revealed to you in the sight of God.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:8:5 @ and this, not as we expected, but first they gave themselves to the Lord and to us by the will of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I say this not as a command, but to prove by the earnestness of others that your love also is genuine.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And in this matter I give my advice: it is best for you now to complete what a year ago you began not only to do but to desire,

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For he not only accepted our appeal, but being himself very earnest he is going to you of his own accord.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only that, but he has been appointed by the churches to travel with us in this gracious work which we are carrying on, for the glory of the Lord and to show our good will.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:21 @ for we aim at what is honorable not only in the Lord's sight but also in the sight of men.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And with them we are sending our brother whom we have often tested and found earnest in many matters, but who is now more earnest than ever because of his great confidence in you.

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:9:12 @ for the rendering of this service not only supplies the wants of the saints but also overflows in many thanksgivings to God.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:10:1 @ I, Paul, myself entreat you, by the meekness and gentleness of Christ--I who am humble when face to face with you, but bold to you when I am away!--

rsv@2Corinthians:10:4 @ for the weapons of our warfare are not worldly but have divine power to destroy strongholds.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:10 @ For they say, "His letters are weighty and strong, but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech of no account."

rsv@2Corinthians:10:12 @ Not that we venture to class or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves. But when they measure themselves by one another, and compare themselves with one another, they are without understanding.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ We do not boast beyond limit, in other men's labors; but our hope is that as your faith increases, our field among you may be greatly enlarged,

rsv@2Corinthians:10:18 @ For it is not the man who commends himself that is accepted, but the man whom the Lord commends.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I repeat, let no one think me foolish; but even if you do, accept me as a fool, so that I too may boast a little.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:17 @ (What I am saying I say not with the Lord's authority but as a fool, in this boastful confidence;

rsv@2Corinthians:11:21 @ To my shame, I must say, we were too weak for that! But whatever any one dares to boast of--I am speaking as a fool--I also dare to boast of that.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:33 @ but I was let down in a basket through a window in the wall, and escaped his hands.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:12:5 @ On behalf of this man I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except of my weaknesses.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:6 @ Though if I wish to boast, I shall not be a fool, for I shall be speaking the truth. But I refrain from it, so that no one may think more of me than he sees in me or hears from me.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:9 @ but he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." I will all the more gladly boast of my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:13:3 @ since you desire proof that Christ is speaking in me. He is not weak in dealing with you, but is powerful in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:4 @ For he was crucified in weakness, but lives by the power of God. For we are weak in him, but in dealing with you we shall live with him by the power of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:7 @ But we pray God that you may not do wrong--not that we may appear to have met the test, but that you may do what is right, though we may seem to have failed.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:8 @ For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

rsv@Galatians:5:11 @ But if I, brethren, still preach circumcision, why am I still persecuted? In that case the stumbling block of the cross has been removed.

rsv@Galatians:5:13 @ For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another.

rsv@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another.

rsv@Galatians:5:16 @ But I say, walk by the Spirit, and do not gratify the desires of the flesh.

rsv@Galatians:5:18 @ But if you are led by the Spirit you are not under the law.

rsv@Galatians:5:22 @ But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

rsv@Galatians:6:4 @ But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor.

rsv@Galatians:6:8 @ For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption; but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

rsv@Galatians:6:13 @ For even those who receive circumcision do not themselves keep the law, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may glory in your flesh.

rsv@Galatians:6:14 @ But far be it from me to glory except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

rsv@Galatians:6:15 @ For neither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation.

rsv@Ephesians:1:21 @ far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come;

rsv@Ephesians:2:4 @ But God, who is rich in mercy, out of the great love with which he loved us,

rsv@Ephesians:2:13 @ But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near in the blood of Christ.

rsv@Ephesians:2:19 @ So then you are no longer strangers and sojourners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,

rsv@Ephesians:4:7 @ But grace was given to each of us according to the measure of Christ's gift.

rsv@Ephesians:4:9 @ (In saying, "He ascended," what does it mean but that he had also descended into the lower parts of the earth?

rsv@Ephesians:4:26 @ Be angry but do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger,

rsv@Ephesians:4:28 @ Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his hands, so that he may be able to give to those in need.

rsv@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for edifying, as fits the occasion, that it may impart grace to those who hear.

rsv@Ephesians:5:3 @ But fornication and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you, as is fitting among saints.

rsv@Ephesians:5:4 @ Let there be no filthiness, nor silly talk, nor levity, which are not fitting; but instead let there be thanksgiving.

rsv@Ephesians:5:8 @ for once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of light

rsv@Ephesians:5:11 @ Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.

rsv@Ephesians:5:13 @ but when anything is exposed by the light it becomes visible, for anything that becomes visible is light.

rsv@Ephesians:5:15 @ Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise,

rsv@Ephesians:5:17 @ Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

rsv@Ephesians:5:18 @ And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery; but be filled with the Spirit,

rsv@Ephesians:5:29 @ For no man ever hates his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, as Christ does the church,

rsv@Ephesians:6:4 @ Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

rsv@Ephesians:6:6 @ not in the way of eye-service, as men-pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart,

rsv@Ephesians:6:12 @ For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

rsv@Philippians:1:15 @ Some indeed preach Christ from envy and rivalry, but others from good will.

rsv@Philippians:1:17 @ the former proclaim Christ out of partisanship, not sincerely but thinking to afflict me in my imprisonment.

rsv@Philippians:1:20 @ as it is my eager expectation and hope that I shall not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death.

rsv@Philippians:1:24 @ But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account.

rsv@Philippians:1:28 @ and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear omen to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God.

rsv@Philippians:2:22 @ But Timothy's worth you know, how as a son with a father he has served with me in the gospel.

rsv@Philippians:2:27 @ Indeed he was ill, near to death. But God had mercy on him, and not only on him but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.

rsv@Hebrews:3:18 @ And to whom did he swear that they should never enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient?

rsv@Hebrews:4:2 @ For good news came to us just as to them; but the message which they heard did not benefit them, because it did not meet with faith in the hearers.

rsv@Hebrews:4:13 @ And before him no creature is hidden, but all are open and laid bare to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

rsv@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we have not a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.

rsv@Hebrews:5:4 @ And one does not take the honor upon himself, but he is called by God, just as Aaron was.

rsv@Hebrews:5:5 @ So also Christ did not exalt himself to be made a high priest, but was appointed by him who said to him, "Thou art my Son, today I have begotten thee";

rsv@Hebrews:7:21 @ Those who formerly became priests took their office without an oath, but this one was addressed with an oath, "The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind, `Thou art a priest for ever.'"

rsv@Hebrews:7:24 @ but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues for ever.

rsv@Hebrews:7:28 @ Indeed, the law appoints men in their weakness as high priests, but the word of the oath, which came later than the law, appoints a Son who has been made perfect for ever.

rsv@Hebrews:8:2 @ a minister in the sanctuary and the true tent which is set up not by man but by the Lord.

rsv@Hebrews:8:6 @ But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry which is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises.

rsv@Hebrews:9:7 @ but into the second only the high priest goes, and he but once a year, and not without taking blood which he offers for himself and for the errors of the people.

rsv@Hebrews:9:10 @ but deal only with food and drink and various ablutions, regulations for the body imposed until the time of reformation.

rsv@Hebrews:9:11 @ But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things that have come, then through the greater and more perfect tent (not made with hands, that is, not of this creation)

rsv@Hebrews:9:12 @ he entered once for all into the Holy Place, taking not the blood of goats and calves but his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.

rsv@Hebrews:9:23 @ Thus it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these rites, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

rsv@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ has entered, not into a sanctuary made with hands, a copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf.

rsv@Hebrews:9:26 @ for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the age to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

rsv@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.

rsv@Hebrews:10:1 @ For since the law has but a shadow of the good things to come instead of the true form of these realities, it can never, by the same sacrifices which are continually offered year after year, make perfect those who draw near.

rsv@Hebrews:10:3 @ But in these sacrifices there is a reminder of sin year after year.

rsv@Hebrews:10:5 @ Consequently, when Christ came into the world, he said, "Sacrifices and offerings thou hast not desired, but a body hast thou prepared for me;

rsv@Hebrews:10:12 @ But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God,

rsv@Hebrews:10:25 @ not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

rsv@Hebrews:10:27 @ but a fearful prospect of judgment, and a fury of fire which will consume the adversaries.

rsv@Hebrews:10:32 @ But recall the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings,

rsv@Hebrews:10:38 @ but my righteous one shall live by faith, and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him."

rsv@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and keep their souls.

rsv@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, through which he received approval as righteous, God bearing witness by accepting his gifts; he died, but through his faith he is still speaking.

rsv@Hebrews:11:13 @ These all died in faith, not having received what was promised, but having seen it and greeted it from afar, and having acknowledged that they were strangers and exiles on the earth.

rsv@Hebrews:11:16 @ But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.

rsv@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith the people crossed the Red Sea as if on dry land; but the Egyptians, when they attempted to do the same, were drowned.

rsv@Hebrews:12:10 @ For they disciplined us for a short time at their pleasure, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness.

rsv@Hebrews:12:13 @ and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed.

rsv@James:1:26 @ If any one thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this man's religion is vain.

rsv@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Is it not the rich who oppress you, is it not they who drag you into court?

rsv@James:2:9 @ But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

rsv@James:2:10 @ For whoever keeps the whole law but fails in one point has become guilty of all of it.

rsv@James:2:11 @ For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," said also, "Do not kill." If you do not commit adultery but do kill, you have become a transgressor of the law.

rsv@James:2:14 @ What does it profit, my brethren, if a man says he has faith but has not works? Can his faith save him?

rsv@James:2:18 @ But some one will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith apart from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith.

rsv@James:3:8 @ but no human being can tame the tongue--a restless evil, full of deadly poison.

rsv@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth.

rsv@James:4:11 @ Do not speak evil against one another, brethren. He that speaks evil against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.

rsv@James:4:12 @ There is one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you that you judge your neighbor?

rsv@James:5:12 @ But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath, but let your yes be yes and your no be no, that you may not fall under condemnation.

rsv@2Peter:2:1 @ But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.

rsv@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare the angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of nether gloom to be kept until the judgment;

rsv@2Peter:2:5 @ if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven other persons, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly;

rsv@2Peter:2:12 @ But these, like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and killed, reviling in matters of which they are ignorant, will be destroyed in the same destruction with them,

rsv@2Peter:2:16 @ but was rebuked for his own transgression; a dumb ass spoke with human voice and restrained the prophet's madness.

rsv@2Peter:2:19 @ They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption; for whatever overcomes a man, to that he is enslaved.

rsv@2Peter:3:7 @ But by the same word the heavens and earth that now exist have been stored up for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

rsv@2Peter:3:8 @ But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

rsv@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord is not slow about his promise as some count slowness, but is forbearing toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.

rsv@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fire, and the earth and the works that are upon it will be burned up.

rsv@2Peter:3:13 @ But according to his promise we wait for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.

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

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

rsv@1John:2:1 @ My little children, I am writing this to you so that you may not sin; but if any one does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous;

rsv@1John:2:2 @ and he is the expiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.

rsv@1John:2:4 @ He who says "I know him" but disobeys his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in him;

rsv@1John:2:5 @ but whoever keeps his word, in him truly love for God is perfected. By this we may be sure that we are in him:

rsv@1John:2:7 @ Beloved, I am writing you no new commandment, but an old commandment which you had from the beginning; the old commandment is the word which you have heard.

rsv@1John:2:11 @ But he who hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

rsv@1John:2:16 @ For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the pride of life, is not of the Father but is of the world.

rsv@1John:2:17 @ And the world passes away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides for ever.

rsv@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out, that it might be plain that they all are not of us.

rsv@1John:2:20 @ But you have been anointed by the Holy One, and you all know.

rsv@1John:2:21 @ I write to you, not because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and know that no lie is of the truth.

rsv@1John:2:22 @ Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son.

rsv@1John:2:27 @ but the anointing which you received from him abides in you, and you have no need that any one should teach you; as his anointing teaches you about everything, and is true, and is no lie, just as it has taught you, abide in him.

rsv@1John:3:2 @ Beloved, we are God's children now; it does not yet appear what we shall be, but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

rsv@1John:3:17 @ But if any one has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?

rsv@1John:3:18 @ Little children, let us not love in word or speech but in deed and in truth.

rsv@1John:4:1 @ Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are of God; for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

rsv@1John:4:10 @ In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the expiation for our sins.

rsv@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and he who fears is not perfected in love.

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

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

rsv@1John:5:17 @ All wrongdoing is sin, but there is sin which is not mortal.

rsv@1John:5:18 @ We know that any one born of God does not sin, but He who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him.

rsv@2John:1:1 @ The elder to the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth, and not only I but also all who know the truth,

rsv@2John:1:5 @ And now I beg you, lady, not as though I were writing you a new commandment, but the one we have had from the beginning, that we love one another.

rsv@2John:1:8 @ Look to yourselves, that you may not lose what you have worked for, but may win a full reward.

rsv@2John:1:12 @ Though I have much to write to you, I would rather not use paper and ink, but I hope to come to see you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

rsv@3John:1:9 @ I have written something to the church; but Diot'rephes, who likes to put himself first, does not acknowledge my authority.

rsv@3John:1:11 @ Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. He who does good is of God; he who does evil has not seen God.

rsv@3John:1:13 @ I had much to write to you, but I would rather not write with pen and ink;

rsv@Jude:1:6 @ And the angels that did not keep their own position but left their proper dwelling have been kept by him in eternal chains in the nether gloom until the judgment of the great day;

rsv@Jude:1:9 @ But when the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, disputed about the body of Moses, he did not presume to pronounce a reviling judgment upon him, but said, "The Lord rebuke you."

rsv@Jude:1:10 @ But these men revile whatever they do not understand, and by those things that they know by instinct as irrational animals do, they are destroyed.

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

rsv@Jude:1:20 @ But you, beloved, build yourselves up on your most holy faith; pray in the Holy Spirit;
