rsv@Romans:1:6 @ including yourselves who are called to belong to Jesus Christ;

rsv@Romans:1:7 @ To all God's beloved in Rome, who are called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Romans:1:8 @ First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world.

rsv@Romans:1:9 @ For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I mention you always in my prayers,

rsv@Romans:1:10 @ asking that somehow by God's will I may now at last succeed in coming to you.

rsv@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you,

rsv@Romans:1:12 @ that is, that we may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine.

rsv@Romans:1:13 @ 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:1:15 @ so I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.

rsv@Romans:2:1 @ Therefore you have no excuse, O man, whoever you are, when you judge another; for in passing judgment upon him you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things.

rsv@Romans:2:3 @ Do you suppose, O man, that when you judge those who do such things and yet do them yourself, you will escape the judgment of God?

rsv@Romans:2:4 @ Or do you presume upon the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience? Do you not know that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?

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

rsv@Romans:2:18 @ and know his will and approve what is excellent, because you are instructed in the law,

rsv@Romans:2:19 @ and if you are sure that you are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,

rsv@Romans:2:21 @ you then who teach others, will you not teach yourself? While you preach against stealing, do you steal?

rsv@Romans:2:22 @ You who say that one must not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?

rsv@Romans:2:23 @ You who boast in the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law?

rsv@Romans:2:24 @ For, as it is written, "The name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you."

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:4:17 @ as it is written, "I have made you the father of many nations" --in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist.

rsv@Romans:4:18 @ In hope he believed against hope, that he should become the father of many nations; as he had been told, "So shall your descendants be."

rsv@Romans:6:3 @ Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?

rsv@Romans:6:11 @ So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Romans:6:12 @ Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal bodies, to make you obey their passions.

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:6:16 @ Do you not know that if you yield yourselves to any one as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?

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

rsv@Romans:6:19 @ I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once yielded your members to impurity and to greater and greater iniquity, so now yield your members to righteousness for sanctification.

rsv@Romans:6:20 @ When you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.

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:7:1 @ Do you not know, brethren--for I am speaking to those who know the law--that the law is binding on a person only during his life?

rsv@Romans:7:4 @ Likewise, my brethren, you have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead in order that we may bear fruit for God.

rsv@Romans:7:7 @ What then shall we say? That the law is sin? By no means! Yet, if it had not been for the law, I should not have known sin. I should not have known what it is to covet if the law had not said, "You shall not covet."

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

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

rsv@Romans:8:11 @ If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also through his Spirit which dwells in you.

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

rsv@Romans:8:15 @ 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:9:7 @ and not all are children of Abraham because they are his descendants; but "Through Isaac shall your descendants be named."

rsv@Romans:9:12 @ she was told, "The elder will serve the younger."

rsv@Romans:9:17 @ For the scripture says to Pharaoh, "I have raised you up for the very purpose of showing my power in you, so that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth."

rsv@Romans:9:19 @ You will say to me then, "Why does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?"

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:9:26 @ "And in the very place where it was said to them, `You are not my people,' they will be called `sons of the living God.'"

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

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

rsv@Romans:10:9 @ because, if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

rsv@Romans:10:19 @ Again I ask, did Israel not understand? First Moses says, "I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation; with a foolish nation I will make you angry."

rsv@Romans:11:2 @ God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the scripture says of Eli'jah, how he pleads with God against Israel?

rsv@Romans:11:13 @ Now I am speaking to you Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry

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:11:19 @ You will say, "Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in."

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

rsv@Romans:11:21 @ For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.

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

rsv@Romans:11:24 @ For if you have been cut from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and grafted, contrary to nature, into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these natural branches be grafted back into their own olive tree.

rsv@Romans:11:25 @ Lest you be wise in your own conceits, I want you to understand this mystery, brethren: a hardening has come upon part of Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles come in,

rsv@Romans:11:28 @ 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:11:31 @ so they have now been disobedient in order that by the mercy shown to you they also may receive mercy.

rsv@Romans:12:1 @ I appeal to you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.

rsv@Romans:12:2 @ 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:12:12 @ Rejoice in your hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.

rsv@Romans:12:14 @ Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them.

rsv@Romans:12:18 @ If possible, so far as it depends upon you, live peaceably with all.

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

rsv@Romans:12:20 @ No, "if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals upon his head."

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:13:6 @ For the same reason you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, attending to this very thing.

rsv@Romans:13:9 @ The commandments, "You shall not commit adultery, You shall not kill, You shall not steal, You shall not covet," and any other commandment, are summed up in this sentence, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

rsv@Romans:13:11 @ Besides this you know what hour it is, how it is full time now for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed;

rsv@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Master is able to make him stand.

rsv@Romans:14:10 @ Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God;

rsv@Romans:14:15 @ If your brother is being injured by what you eat, you are no longer walking in love. Do not let what you eat cause the ruin of one for whom Christ died.

rsv@Romans:14:16 @ So do not let your good be spoken of as evil.

rsv@Romans:14:21 @ it is right not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that makes your brother stumble.

rsv@Romans:14:22 @ The faith that you have, keep between yourself and God; happy is he who has no reason to judge himself for what he approves.

rsv@Romans:15:5 @ May the God of steadfastness and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus,

rsv@Romans:15:6 @ that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Romans:15:7 @ Welcome one another, therefore, as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God.

rsv@Romans:15:8 @ For I tell you that Christ became a servant to the circumcised to show God's truthfulness, in order to confirm the promises given to the patriarchs,

rsv@Romans:15:13 @ May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.

rsv@Romans:15:14 @ I myself am satisfied about you, my brethren, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, and able to instruct one another.

rsv@Romans:15:15 @ 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:15:22 @ This is the reason why I have so often been hindered from coming to you.

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:15:24 @ I hope to see you in passing as I go to Spain, and to be sped on my journey there by you, once I have enjoyed your company for a little.

rsv@Romans:15:28 @ When therefore I have completed this, and have delivered to them what has been raised, I shall go on by way of you to Spain;

rsv@Romans:15:29 @ and I know that when I come to you I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ.

rsv@Romans:15:30 @ I appeal to you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God on my behalf,

rsv@Romans:15:32 @ so that by God's will I may come to you with joy and be refreshed in your company.

rsv@Romans:15:33 @ The God of peace be with you all. Amen.

rsv@Romans:16:1 @ I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a deaconess of the church at Cen'chre-ae,

rsv@Romans:16:2 @ that you may receive her in the Lord as befits the saints, and help her in whatever she may require from you, for she has been a helper of many and of myself as well.

rsv@Romans:16:6 @ Greet Mary, who has worked hard among you.

rsv@Romans:16:16 @ Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ greet you.

rsv@Romans:16:17 @ I appeal to you, brethren, to take note of those who create dissensions and difficulties, in opposition to the doctrine which you have been taught; avoid them.

rsv@Romans:16:19 @ For while your obedience is known to all, so that I rejoice over you, I would have you wise as to what is good and guileless as to what is evil;

rsv@Romans:16:20 @ then the God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

rsv@Romans:16:21 @ Timothy, my fellow worker, greets you; so do Lucius and Jason and Sosip'ater, my kinsmen.

rsv@Romans:16:22 @ I Tertius, the writer of this letter, greet you in the Lord.

rsv@Romans:16:23 @ Ga'ius, who is host to me and to the whole church, greets you. Eras'tus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus, greet you.

rsv@Romans:16:24 @ Now to him who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which was kept secret for long ages

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

rsv@1Corinthians:1:4 @ I give thanks to God always for you because of the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus,

rsv@1Corinthians:1:5 @ that in every way you were enriched in him with all speech and all knowledge--

rsv@1Corinthians:1:6 @ even as the testimony to Christ was confirmed among you--

rsv@1Corinthians:1:7 @ so that you are not lacking in any spiritual gift, as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ;

rsv@1Corinthians:1:8 @ who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:9 @ God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

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:1:11 @ For it has been reported to me by Chlo'e's people that there is quarreling among you, my brethren.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:12 @ What I mean is that each one of you says, "I belong to Paul," or "I belong to Apol'los," or "I belong to Cephas," or "I belong to Christ."

rsv@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

rsv@1Corinthians:1:14 @ I am thankful that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Ga'ius;

rsv@1Corinthians:1:15 @ lest any one should say that you were baptized in my name.

rsv@1Corinthians:1:26 @ For consider your call, brethren; not many of you were wise according to worldly standards, not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth;

rsv@1Corinthians:1:30 @ He is the source of your life in Christ Jesus, whom God made our wisdom, our righteousness and sanctification and redemption;

rsv@1Corinthians:2:1 @ When I came to you, brethren, I did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God in lofty words or wisdom.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:2 @ For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.

rsv@1Corinthians:2:3 @ And I was with you in weakness and in much fear and trembling;

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

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

rsv@1Corinthians:3:2 @ I fed you with milk, not solid food; for you were not ready for it; and even yet you are not ready,

rsv@1Corinthians:3:3 @ for you are still of the flesh. For while there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not of the flesh, and behaving like ordinary men?

rsv@1Corinthians:3:4 @ For when one says, "I belong to Paul," and another, "I belong to Apol'los," are you not merely men?

rsv@1Corinthians:3:5 @ What then is Apol'los? What is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, as the Lord assigned to each.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:9 @ For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:16 @ Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you?

rsv@1Corinthians:3:17 @ If any one destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and that temple you are.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no one deceive himself. If any one among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.

rsv@1Corinthians:3:21 @ So let no one boast of men. For all things are yours,

rsv@1Corinthians:3:22 @ whether Paul or Apol'los or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future, all are yours;

rsv@1Corinthians:3:23 @ and you are Christ's; and Christ is God's.

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:4:6 @ I have applied all this to myself and Apol'los for your benefit, brethren, that you may learn by us not to go beyond what is written, that none of you may be puffed up in favor of one against another.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who sees anything different in you? What have you that you did not receive? If then you received it, why do you boast as if it were not a gift?

rsv@1Corinthians:4:8 @ Already you are filled! Already you have become rich! Without us you have become kings! And would that you did reign, so that we might share the rule with you!

rsv@1Corinthians:4:10 @ 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:4:15 @ For though you have countless guides in Christ, you do not have many fathers. For I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:16 @ I urge you, then, be imitators of me.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:17 @ Therefore I sent to you Timothy, my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, to remind you of my ways in Christ, as I teach them everywhere in every church.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:18 @ Some are arrogant, as though I were not coming to you.

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:4:21 @ What do you wish? Shall I come to you with a rod, or with love in a spirit of gentleness?

rsv@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and of a kind that is not found even among pagans; for a man is living with his father's wife.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:2 @ And you are arrogant! Ought you not rather to mourn? Let him who has done this be removed from among you.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:4 @ in the name of the Lord Jesus on the man who has done such a thing. When you are assembled, and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus,

rsv@1Corinthians:5:5 @ you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:6 @ Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump?

rsv@1Corinthians:5:7 @ Cleanse out the old leaven that you may be a new lump, as you really are unleavened. For Christ, our paschal lamb, has been sacrificed.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:9 @ I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with immoral men;

rsv@1Corinthians:5:10 @ not at all meaning the immoral of this world, or the greedy and robbers, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:5:12 @ For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you are to judge?

rsv@1Corinthians:5:13 @ God judges those outside. "Drive out the wicked person from among you."

rsv@1Corinthians:6:1 @ When one of you has a grievance against a brother, does he dare go to law before the unrighteous instead of the saints?

rsv@1Corinthians:6:2 @ Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases?

rsv@1Corinthians:6:3 @ Do you not know that we are to judge angels? How much more, matters pertaining to this life!

rsv@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If then you have such cases, why do you lay them before those who are least esteemed by the church?

rsv@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to your shame. Can it be that there is no man among you wise enough to decide between members of the brotherhood,

rsv@1Corinthians:6:7 @ To have lawsuits at all with one another is defeat for you. Why not rather suffer wrong? Why not rather be defrauded?

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

rsv@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor sexual perverts,

rsv@1Corinthians:6:11 @ 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:6:15 @ Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I therefore take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never!

rsv@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Do you not know that he who joins himself to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, "The two shall become one flesh."

rsv@1Corinthians:6:19 @ Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, which you have from God? You are not your own;

rsv@1Corinthians:6:20 @ you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:1 @ Now concerning the matters about which you wrote. It is well for a man not to touch a woman.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:5 @ 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:7:14 @ 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:7:16 @ Wife, how do you know whether you will save your husband? Husband, how do you know whether you will save your wife?

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

rsv@1Corinthians:7:23 @ You were bought with a price; do not become slaves of men.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:27 @ Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be free. Are you free from a wife? Do not seek marriage.

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:7:32 @ I want you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried man is anxious about the affairs of the Lord, how to please the Lord;

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:8:9 @ Only take care lest this liberty of yours somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if any one sees you, a man of knowledge, at table in an idol's temple, might he not be encouraged, if his conscience is weak, to eat food offered to idols?

rsv@1Corinthians:8:11 @ And so by your knowledge this weak man is destroyed, the brother for whom Christ died.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:12 @ Thus, sinning against your brethren and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:1 @ Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are not you my workmanship in the Lord?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:2 @ If to others I am not an apostle, at least I am to you; for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:9 @ For it is written in the law of Moses, "You shall not muzzle an ox when it is treading out the grain." Is it for oxen that God is concerned?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:11 @ If we have sown spiritual good among you, is it too much if we reap your material benefits?

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:9:13 @ Do you not know that those who are employed in the temple service get their food from the temple, and those who serve at the altar share in the sacrificial offerings?

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:10:1 @ I want you to know, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,

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:10:15 @ I speak as to sensible men; judge for yourselves what I say.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:20 @ No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be partners with demons.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:21 @ You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:27 @ If one of the unbelievers invites you to dinner and you are disposed to go, eat whatever is set before you without raising any question on the ground of conscience.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:28 @ (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:10:29 @ I mean his conscience, not yours--do not eat it.) For why should my liberty be determined by another man's scruples?

rsv@1Corinthians:10:31 @ So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:2 @ I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:3 @ 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:11:13 @ Judge for yourselves; is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

rsv@1Corinthians:11:14 @ Does not nature itself teach you that for a man to wear long hair is degrading to him,

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

rsv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For, in the first place, when you assemble as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it,

rsv@1Corinthians:11:19 @ for there must be factions among you in order that those who are genuine among you may be recognized.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:20 @ When you meet together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I commend you in this? No, I will not.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:11:24 @ and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me."

rsv@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me."

rsv@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:30 @ That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:33 @ So then, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another--

rsv@1Corinthians:11:34 @ if any one is hungry, let him eat at home--lest you come together to be condemned. About the other things I will give directions when I come.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:1 @ Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be uninformed.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:2 @ You know that when you were heathen, you were led astray to dumb idols, however you may have been moved.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:12:21 @ The eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need of you," nor again the head to the feet, "I have no need of you."

rsv@1Corinthians:12:27 @ Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Make love your aim, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.

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:14:6 @ Now, brethren, if I come to you speaking in tongues, how shall I benefit you unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So with yourselves; if you in a tongue utter speech that is not intelligible, how will any one know what is said? For you will be speaking into the air.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:12 @ So with yourselves; since you are eager for manifestations of the Spirit, strive to excel in building up the church.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how can any one in the position of an outsider say the "Amen" to your thanksgiving when he does not know what you are saying?

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

rsv@1Corinthians:14:18 @ I thank God that I speak in tongues more than you all;

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

rsv@1Corinthians:14:23 @ If, therefore, the whole church assembles and all speak in tongues, and outsiders or unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are mad?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:25 @ the secrets of his heart are disclosed; and so, falling on his face, he will worship God and declare that God is really among you.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ What then, brethren? When you come together, each one has a hymn, a lesson, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:31 @ For you can all prophesy one by one, so that all may learn and all be encouraged;

rsv@1Corinthians:14:36 @ What! Did the word of God originate with you, or are you the only ones it has reached?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If any one thinks that he is a prophet, or spiritual, he should acknowledge that what I am writing to you is a command of the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:1 @ Now I would remind you, brethren, in what terms I preached to you the gospel, which you received, in which you stand,

rsv@1Corinthians:15:2 @ by which you are saved, if you hold it fast--unless you believed in vain.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures,

rsv@1Corinthians:15:11 @ Whether then it was I or they, so we preach and so you believed.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ Now if Christ is preached as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

rsv@1Corinthians:15:14 @ if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:17 @ If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Come to your right mind, and sin no more. For some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:36 @ You foolish man! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies.

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:15:50 @ I tell you this, brethren: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:15:58 @ Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:16:5 @ I will visit you after passing through Macedo'nia, for I intend to pass through Macedo'nia,

rsv@1Corinthians:16:6 @ and perhaps I will stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may speed me on my journey, wherever I go.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:7 @ For I do not want to see you now just in passing; I hope to spend some time with you, if the Lord permits.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:10 @ When Timothy comes, see that you put him at ease among you, for he is doing the work of the Lord, as I am.

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

rsv@1Corinthians:16:13 @ Be watchful, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:14 @ Let all that you do be done in love.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:15 @ Now, brethren, you know that the household of Steph'anas were the first converts in Acha'ia, and they have devoted themselves to the service of the saints;

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

rsv@1Corinthians:16:17 @ I rejoice at the coming of Steph'anas and Fortuna'tus and Acha'icus, because they have made up for your absence;

rsv@1Corinthians:16:18 @ for they refreshed my spirit as well as yours. Give recognition to such men.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The churches of Asia send greetings. Aq'uila and Prisca, together with the church in their house, send you hearty greetings in the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:23 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:24 @ My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:1:6 @ If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:7 @ Our hope for you is unshaken; for we know that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in our comfort.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of the affliction we experienced in Asia; for we were so utterly, unbearably crushed that we despaired of life itself.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:11 @ You also must help us by prayer, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us in answer to many prayers.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:1:15 @ Because I was sure of this, I wanted to come to you first, so that you might have a double pleasure;

rsv@2Corinthians:1:16 @ I wanted to visit you on my way to Macedo'nia, and to come back to you from Macedo'nia and have you send me on my way to Judea.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:18 @ As surely as God is faithful, our word to you has not been Yes and No.

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

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we lord it over your faith; we work with you for your joy, for you stand firm in your faith.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:1 @ For I made up my mind not to make you another painful visit.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote as I did, so that when I came I might not suffer pain from those who should have made me rejoice, for I felt sure of all of you, that my joy would be the joy of you all.

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:2:7 @ so you should rather turn to forgive and comfort him, or he may be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:8 @ So I beg you to reaffirm your love for him.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For this is why I wrote, that I might test you and know whether you are obedient in everything.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:10 @ Any one whom you forgive, I also forgive. What I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, has been for your sake in the presence of Christ,

rsv@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, as some do, letters of recommendation to you, or from you?

rsv@2Corinthians:3:2 @ You yourselves are our letter of recommendation, written on your hearts, to be known and read by all men;

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

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

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:4:15 @ For it is all for your sake, so that as grace extends to more and more people it may increase thanksgiving, to the glory of God.

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:5:13 @ For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:20 @ So we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We beseech you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:1 @ Working together with him, then, we entreat you not to accept the grace of God in vain.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:2 @ For he says, "At the acceptable time I have listened to you, and helped you on the day of salvation." Behold, now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:11 @ Our mouth is open to you, Corinthians; our heart is wide.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:6:13 @ In return--I speak as to children--widen your hearts also.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore come out from them, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch nothing unclean; then I will welcome you,

rsv@2Corinthians:6:18 @ and I will be a father to you, and you shall be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty."

rsv@2Corinthians:7:2 @ Open your hearts to us; we have wronged no one, we have corrupted no one, we have taken advantage of no one.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:3 @ I do not say this to condemn you, for I said before that you are in our hearts, to die together and to live together.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:4 @ I have great confidence in you; I have great pride in you; I am filled with comfort. With all our affliction, I am overjoyed.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:7:8 @ For even if I made you sorry with my letter, I do not regret it (though I did regret it), for I see that that letter grieved you, though only for a while.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For see what earnestness this godly grief has produced in you, what eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what alarm, what longing, what zeal, what punishment! At every point you have proved yourselves guiltless in the matter.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:7:13 @ Therefore we are comforted. And besides our own comfort we rejoiced still more at the joy of Titus, because his mind has been set at rest by you all.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his heart goes out all the more to you, as he remembers the obedience of you all, and the fear and trembling with which you received him.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:16 @ I rejoice, because I have perfect confidence in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:1 @ We want you to know, brethren, about the grace of God which has been shown in the churches of Macedo'nia,

rsv@2Corinthians:8:6 @ Accordingly we have urged Titus that as he had already made a beginning, he should also complete among you this gracious work.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:7 @ Now as you excel in everything--in faith, in utterance, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in your love for us--see that you excel in this gracious work also.

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

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:8:11 @ so that your readiness in desiring it may be matched by your completing it out of what you have.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:13 @ I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened,

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

rsv@2Corinthians:8:23 @ As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker in your service; and as for our brethren, they are messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:24 @ So give proof, before the churches, of your love and of our boasting about you to these men.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:1 @ Now it is superfluous for me to write to you about the offering for the saints,

rsv@2Corinthians:9:2 @ for I know your readiness, of which I boast about you to the people of Macedo'nia, saying that Acha'ia has been ready since last year; and your zeal has stirred up most of them.

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:9:4 @ lest if some Macedo'nians come with me and find that you are not ready, we be humiliated--to say nothing of you--for being so confident.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:9:8 @ And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that you may always have enough of everything and may provide in abundance for every good work.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:10 @ He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your resources and increase the harvest of your righteousness.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:11 @ You will be enriched in every way for great generosity, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God;

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

rsv@2Corinthians:9:14 @ while they long for you and pray for you, because of the surpassing grace of God in you.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:10:2 @ I beg of you that when I am present I may not have to show boldness with such confidence as I count on showing against some who suspect us of acting in worldly fashion.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:6 @ being ready to punish every disobedience, when your obedience is complete.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:7 @ Look at what is before your eyes. If any one is confident that he is Christ's, let him remind himself that as he is Christ's, so are we.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For even if I boast a little too much of our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for destroying you, I shall not be put to shame.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:9 @ I would not seem to be frightening you with letters.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we are not overextending ourselves, as though we did not reach you; we were the first to come all the way to you with the gospel of Christ.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:10:16 @ so that we may preach the gospel in lands beyond you, without boasting of work already done in another's field.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:1 @ I wish you would bear with me in a little foolishness. Do bear with me!

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

rsv@2Corinthians:11:3 @ 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:11:4 @ For if some one comes and preaches another Jesus than the one we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or if you accept a different gospel from the one you accepted, you submit to it readily enough.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:6 @ Even if I am unskilled in speaking, I am not in knowledge; in every way we have made this plain to you in all things.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Did I commit a sin in abasing myself so that you might be exalted, because I preached God's gospel without cost to you?

rsv@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I robbed other churches by accepting support from them in order to serve you.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was with you and was in want, I did not burden any one, for my needs were supplied by the brethren who came from Macedo'nia. So I refrained and will refrain from burdening you in any way.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:11 @ And why? Because I do not love you? God knows I do!

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:11:19 @ For you gladly bear with fools, being wise yourselves!

rsv@2Corinthians:11:20 @ For you bear it if a man makes slaves of you, or preys upon you, or takes advantage of you, or puts on airs, or strikes you in the face.

rsv@2Corinthians: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:12:11 @ I have been a fool! You forced me to it, for I ought to have been commended by you. For I was not at all inferior to these superlative apostles, even though I am nothing.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:12 @ The signs of a true apostle were performed among you in all patience, with signs and wonders and mighty works.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For in what were you less favored than the rest of the churches, except that I myself did not burden you? Forgive me this wrong!

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:12:15 @ I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you the more, am I to be loved the less?

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:12:17 @ Did I take advantage of you through any of those whom I sent to you?

rsv@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I urged Titus to go, and sent the brother with him. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not act in the same spirit? Did we not take the same steps?

rsv@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves before you? It is in the sight of God that we have been speaking in Christ, and all for your upbuilding, beloved.

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

rsv@2Corinthians:12:21 @ I fear that when I come again my God may humble me before you, and I may have to mourn over many of those who sinned before and have not repented of the impurity, immorality, and licentiousness which they have practiced.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:1 @ This is the third time I am coming to you. Any charge must be sustained by the evidence of two or three witnesses.

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

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

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

rsv@2Corinthians:13:6 @ I hope you will find out that we have not failed.

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:13:9 @ For we are glad when we are weak and you are strong. What we pray for is your improvement.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:10 @ I write this while I am away from you, in order that when I come I may not have to be severe in my use of the authority which the Lord has given me for building up and not for tearing down.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brethren, farewell. Mend your ways, heed my appeal, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:13 @ All the saints greet you.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:14 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.

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

rsv@Galatians:1:6 @ I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and turning to a different gospel--

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:1:9 @ As we have said before, so now I say again, If any one is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed.

rsv@Galatians:1:11 @ For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not man's gospel.

rsv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God violently and tried to destroy it;

rsv@Galatians:1:20 @ (In what I am writing to you, before God, I do not lie!)

rsv@Galatians:2:5 @ to them we did not yield submission even for a moment, that the truth of the gospel might be preserved for you.

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

rsv@Galatians:3:2 @ Let me ask you only this: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?

rsv@Galatians:3:3 @ Are you so foolish? Having begun with the Spirit, are you now ending with the flesh?

rsv@Galatians:3:4 @ Did you experience so many things in vain?--if it really is in vain.

rsv@Galatians:3:5 @ Does he who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you do so by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?

rsv@Galatians:3:7 @ So you see that it is men of faith who are the sons of Abraham.

rsv@Galatians:3:8 @ And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, "In you shall all the nations be blessed."

rsv@Galatians:3:16 @ 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:3:26 @ for in Christ Jesus you are all sons of God, through faith.

rsv@Galatians:3:27 @ For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

rsv@Galatians:3:28 @ There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Galatians:3:29 @ And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise.

rsv@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba! Father!"

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

rsv@Galatians:4:8 @ Formerly, when you did not know God, you were in bondage to beings that by nature are no gods;

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:4:10 @ You observe days, and months, and seasons, and years!

rsv@Galatians:4:11 @ I am afraid I have labored over you in vain.

rsv@Galatians:4:12 @ Brethren, I beseech you, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You did me no wrong;

rsv@Galatians:4:13 @ you know it was because of a bodily ailment that I preached the gospel to you at first;

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

rsv@Galatians:4:15 @ What has become of the satisfaction you felt? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.

rsv@Galatians:4:16 @ Have I then become your enemy by telling you the truth?

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:4:18 @ For a good purpose it is always good to be made much of, and not only when I am present with you.

rsv@Galatians:4:19 @ My little children, with whom I am again in travail until Christ be formed in you!

rsv@Galatians:4:20 @ I could wish to be present with you now and to change my tone, for I am perplexed about you.

rsv@Galatians:4:21 @ Tell me, you who desire to be under law, do you not hear the law?

rsv@Galatians:4:27 @ For it is written, "Rejoice, O barren one who does not bear; break forth and shout, you who are not in travail; for the children of the desolate one are many more than the children of her that is married."

rsv@Galatians:5:2 @ Now I, Paul, say to you that if you receive circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you.

rsv@Galatians:5:4 @ You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace.

rsv@Galatians:5:7 @ You were running well; who hindered you from obeying the truth?

rsv@Galatians:5:8 @ This persuasion is not from him who calls you.

rsv@Galatians:5:10 @ I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view than mine; and he who is troubling you will bear his judgment, whoever he is.

rsv@Galatians:5:12 @ I wish those who unsettle you would mutilate themselves!

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:5:14 @ For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

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

rsv@Galatians:5:17 @ For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, to prevent you from doing what you would.

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

rsv@Galatians:5:21 @ envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

rsv@Galatians:6:1 @ Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Look to yourself, lest you too be tempted.

rsv@Galatians:6:11 @ See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand.

rsv@Galatians:6:12 @ It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh that would compel you to be circumcised, and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:6:13 @ 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:6:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.

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

rsv@Ephesians:1:13 @ In him you also, who have heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and have believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,

rsv@Ephesians:1:15 @ For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints,

rsv@Ephesians:1:16 @ I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers,

rsv@Ephesians:1:17 @ that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him,

rsv@Ephesians:1:18 @ having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints,

rsv@Ephesians:2:1 @ And you he made alive, when you were dead through the trespasses and sins

rsv@Ephesians:2:2 @ in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience.

rsv@Ephesians:2:5 @ even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

rsv@Ephesians:2:8 @ For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God--

rsv@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called the uncircumcision by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands--

rsv@Ephesians:2:12 @ remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world.

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

rsv@Ephesians:2:17 @ And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near;

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

rsv@Ephesians:2:22 @ in whom you also are built into it for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

rsv@Ephesians:3:1 @ For this reason I, Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles--

rsv@Ephesians:3:2 @ assuming that you have heard of the stewardship of God's grace that was given to me for you,

rsv@Ephesians:3:4 @ When you read this you can perceive my insight into the mystery of Christ,

rsv@Ephesians:3:13 @ So I ask you not to lose heart over what I am suffering for you, which is your glory.

rsv@Ephesians:3:16 @ that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with might through his Spirit in the inner man,

rsv@Ephesians:3:17 @ and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

rsv@Ephesians:3:19 @ and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fulness of God.

rsv@Ephesians:4:1 @ I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called,

rsv@Ephesians:4:4 @ There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call,

rsv@Ephesians:4:17 @ Now this I affirm and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds;

rsv@Ephesians:4:20 @ You did not so learn Christ!--

rsv@Ephesians:4:21 @ assuming that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus.

rsv@Ephesians:4:22 @ Put off your old nature which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful lusts,

rsv@Ephesians:4:23 @ and be renewed in the spirit of your minds,

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

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

rsv@Ephesians:4:30 @ And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

rsv@Ephesians:4:31 @ Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, with all malice,

rsv@Ephesians:4:32 @ and be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

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:5:6 @ Let no one deceive you with empty words, for it is because of these things that the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.

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

rsv@Ephesians:5:14 @ Therefore it is said, "Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give you light."

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

rsv@Ephesians:5:19 @ addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with all your heart,

rsv@Ephesians:5:22 @ Wives, be subject to your husbands, as to the Lord.

rsv@Ephesians:5:25 @ Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her,

rsv@Ephesians:5:33 @ however, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

rsv@Ephesians:6:1 @ Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.

rsv@Ephesians:6:2 @ "Honor your father and mother" (this is the first commandment with a promise),

rsv@Ephesians:6:3 @ "that it may be well with you and that you may live long on the earth."

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

rsv@Ephesians:6:5 @ Slaves, be obedient to those who are your earthly masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of heart, as to Christ;

rsv@Ephesians:6:9 @ Masters, do the same to them, and forbear threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and that there is no partiality with him.

rsv@Ephesians:6:11 @ Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

rsv@Ephesians:6:13 @ Therefore take the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

rsv@Ephesians:6:14 @ Stand therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,

rsv@Ephesians:6:15 @ and having shod your feet with the equipment of the gospel of peace;

rsv@Ephesians:6:16 @ besides all these, taking the shield of faith, with which you can quench all the flaming darts of the evil one.

rsv@Ephesians:6:21 @ Now that you also may know how I am and what I am doing, Tych'icus the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord will tell you everything.

rsv@Ephesians:6:22 @ I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are, and that he may encourage your hearts.

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

rsv@Philippians:1:3 @ I thank my God in all my remembrance of you,

rsv@Philippians:1:4 @ always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy,

rsv@Philippians:1:5 @ thankful for your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now.

rsv@Philippians:1:6 @ And I am sure that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

rsv@Philippians:1:7 @ It is right for me to feel thus about you all, because I hold you in my heart, for you are all partakers with me of grace, both in my imprisonment and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel.

rsv@Philippians:1:8 @ For God is my witness, how I yearn for you all with the affection of Christ Jesus.

rsv@Philippians:1:9 @ And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment,

rsv@Philippians:1:10 @ so that you may approve what is excellent, and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,

rsv@Philippians:1:12 @ I want you to know, brethren, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel,

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

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

rsv@Philippians:1:25 @ Convinced of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith,

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

rsv@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you stand firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel,

rsv@Philippians:1:28 @ 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:1:29 @ For it has been granted to you that for the sake of Christ you should not only believe in him but also suffer for his sake,

rsv@Philippians:1:30 @ engaged in the same conflict which you saw and now hear to be mine.

rsv@Philippians:2:3 @ Do nothing from selfishness or conceit, but in humility count others better than yourselves.

rsv@Philippians:2:4 @ Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.

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

rsv@Philippians:2:12 @ Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;

rsv@Philippians:2:13 @ for God is at work in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.

rsv@Philippians:2:15 @ that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,

rsv@Philippians:2:17 @ Even if I am to be poured as a libation upon the sacrificial offering of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all.

rsv@Philippians:2:18 @ Likewise you also should be glad and rejoice with me.

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

rsv@Philippians:2:20 @ I have no one like him, who will be genuinely anxious for your welfare.

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:2:25 @ I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphrodi'tus my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to my need,

rsv@Philippians:2:26 @ for he has been longing for you all, and has been distressed because you heard that he was ill.

rsv@Philippians:2:28 @ I am the more eager to send him, therefore, that you may rejoice at seeing him again, and that I may be less anxious.

rsv@Philippians:2:30 @ for he nearly died for the work of Christ, risking his life to complete your service to me.

rsv@Philippians:3:1 @ Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is not irksome to me, and is safe for you.

rsv@Philippians:3:15 @ Let those of us who are mature be thus minded; and if in anything you are otherwise minded, God will reveal that also to you.

rsv@Philippians:3:17 @ Brethren, join in imitating me, and mark those who so live as you have an example in us.

rsv@Philippians:3:18 @ For many, of whom I have often told you and now tell you even with tears, live as enemies of the cross of Christ.

rsv@Philippians:4:3 @ And I ask you also, true yokefellow, help these women, for they have labored side by side with me in the gospel together with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the book of life.

rsv@Philippians:4:5 @ Let all men know your forbearance. The Lord is at hand.

rsv@Philippians:4:6 @ Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

rsv@Philippians:4:7 @ And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Philippians:4:9 @ What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, do; and the God of peace will be with you.

rsv@Philippians:4:10 @ I rejoice in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me; you were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity.

rsv@Philippians:4:14 @ Yet it was kind of you to share my trouble.

rsv@Philippians:4:15 @ And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedo'nia, no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving except you only;

rsv@Philippians:4:16 @ for even in Thessaloni'ca you sent me help once and again.

rsv@Philippians:4:17 @ Not that I seek the gift; but I seek the fruit which increases to your credit.

rsv@Philippians:4:18 @ I have received full payment, and more; I am filled, having received from Epaphrodi'tus the gifts you sent, a fragrant offering, a sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God.

rsv@Philippians:4:19 @ And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Philippians:4:21 @ Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren who are with me greet you.

rsv@Philippians:4:22 @ All the saints greet you, especially those of Caesar's household.

rsv@Philippians:4:23 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

rsv@Colossians:1:2 @ To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ at Colos'sae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.

rsv@Colossians:1:3 @ We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you,

rsv@Colossians:1:4 @ because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you have for all the saints,

rsv@Colossians:1:5 @ because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. Of this you have heard before in the word of the truth, the gospel

rsv@Colossians:1:6 @ which has come to you, as indeed in the whole world it is bearing fruit and growing--so among yourselves, from the day you heard and understood the grace of God in truth,

rsv@Colossians:1:7 @ as you learned it from Ep'aphras our beloved fellow servant. He is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf

rsv@Colossians:1:8 @ and has made known to us your love in the Spirit.

rsv@Colossians:1:9 @ And so, from the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding,

rsv@Colossians:1:11 @ May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy,

rsv@Colossians:1:21 @ And you, who once were estranged and hostile in mind, doing evil deeds,

rsv@Colossians:1:22 @ he has now reconciled in his body of flesh by his death, in order to present you holy and blameless and irreproachable before him,

rsv@Colossians:1:23 @ provided that you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which has been preached to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a minister.

rsv@Colossians:1:24 @ Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I complete what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church,

rsv@Colossians:1:25 @ of which I became a minister according to the divine office which was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known,

rsv@Colossians:1:27 @ To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

rsv@Colossians:2:1 @ For I want you to know how greatly I strive for you, and for those at La-odice'a, and for all who have not seen my face,

rsv@Colossians:2:4 @ I say this in order that no one may delude you with beguiling speech.

rsv@Colossians:2:5 @ For though I am absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and the firmness of your faith in Christ.

rsv@Colossians:2:6 @ As therefore you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so live in him,

rsv@Colossians:2:7 @ rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.

rsv@Colossians:2:8 @ See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe, and not according to Christ.

rsv@Colossians:2:10 @ and you have come to fulness of life in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.

rsv@Colossians:2:11 @ In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of flesh in the circumcision of Christ;

rsv@Colossians:2:12 @ and you were buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.

rsv@Colossians:2:13 @ And you, who were dead in trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,

rsv@Colossians:2:16 @ Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a sabbath.

rsv@Colossians:2:18 @ Let no one disqualify you, insisting on self-abasement and worship of angels, taking his stand on visions, puffed up without reason by his sensuous mind,

rsv@Colossians:2:20 @ If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the universe, why do you live as if you still belonged to the world? Why do you submit to regulations,

rsv@Colossians:3:1 @ If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.

rsv@Colossians:3:2 @ Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.

rsv@Colossians:3:3 @ For you have died, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

rsv@Colossians:3:4 @ When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

rsv@Colossians:3:5 @ Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: fornication, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

rsv@Colossians:3:7 @ In these you once walked, when you lived in them.

rsv@Colossians:3:8 @ But now put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and foul talk from your mouth.

rsv@Colossians:3:9 @ Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old nature with its practices

rsv@Colossians:3:13 @ forbearing one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.

rsv@Colossians:3:15 @ And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful.

rsv@Colossians:3:16 @ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teach and admonish one another in all wisdom, and sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

rsv@Colossians:3:17 @ And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

rsv@Colossians:3:18 @ Wives, be subject to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:3:19 @ Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them.

rsv@Colossians:3:20 @ Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:3:21 @ Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged.

rsv@Colossians:3:22 @ Slaves, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:3:23 @ Whatever your task, work heartily, as serving the Lord and not men,

rsv@Colossians:3:24 @ knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward; you are serving the Lord Christ.

rsv@Colossians:4:1 @ Masters, treat your slaves justly and fairly, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.

rsv@Colossians:4:5 @ Conduct yourselves wisely toward outsiders, making the most of the time.

rsv@Colossians:4:6 @ Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer every one.

rsv@Colossians:4:7 @ Tych'icus will tell you all about my affairs; he is a beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow servant in the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:4:8 @ I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are and that he may encourage your hearts,

rsv@Colossians:4:9 @ and with him Ones'imus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of yourselves. They will tell you of everything that has taken place here.

rsv@Colossians:4:10 @ Aristar'chus my fellow prisoner greets you, and Mark the cousin of Barnabas (concerning whom you have received instructions--if he comes to you, receive him),

rsv@Colossians:4:12 @ Ep'aphras, who is one of yourselves, a servant of Christ Jesus, greets you, always remembering you earnestly in his prayers, that you may stand mature and fully assured in all the will of God.

rsv@Colossians:4:13 @ For I bear him witness that he has worked hard for you and for those in La-odice'a and in Hi-erap'olis.

rsv@Colossians:4:14 @ Luke the beloved physician and Demas greet you.

rsv@Colossians:4:16 @ And when this letter has been read among you, have it read also in the church of the La-odice'ans; and see that you read also the letter from La-odice'a.

rsv@Colossians:4:17 @ And say to Archip'pus, "See that you fulfil the ministry which you have received in the Lord."

rsv@Colossians:4:18 @ I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. Remember my fetters. Grace be with you.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, Silva'nus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalo'nians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:2 @ We give thanks to God always for you all, constantly mentioning you in our prayers,

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:3 @ remembering before our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:4 @ For we know, brethren beloved by God, that he has chosen you;

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ for our gospel came to you not only in word, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction. You know what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, for you received the word in much affliction, with joy inspired by the Holy Spirit;

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:7 @ so that you became an example to all the believers in Macedo'nia and in Acha'ia.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For not only has the word of the Lord sounded forth from you in Macedo'nia and Acha'ia, but your faith in God has gone forth everywhere, so that we need not say anything.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For they themselves report concerning us what a welcome we had among you, and how you turned to God from idols, to serve a living and true God,

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:1 @ For you yourselves know, brethren, that our visit to you was not in vain;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ but though we had already suffered and been shamefully treated at Philip'pi, as you know, we had courage in our God to declare to you the gospel of God in the face of great opposition.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For we never used either words of flattery, as you know, or a cloak for greed, as God is witness;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:6 @ nor did we seek glory from men, whether from you or from others, though we might have made demands as apostles of Christ.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:7 @ But we were gentle among you, like a nurse taking care of her children.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So, being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become very dear to us.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ For you remember our labor and toil, brethren; we worked night and day, that we might not burden any of you, while we preached to you the gospel of God.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses, and God also, how holy and righteous and blameless was our behavior to you believers;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:11 @ for you know how, like a father with his children, we exhorted each one of you and encouraged you and charged you

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:12 @ to lead a life worthy of God, who calls you into his own kingdom and glory.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ And we also thank God constantly for this, that when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men but as what it really is, the word of God, which is at work in you believers.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus which are in Judea; for you suffered the same things from your own countrymen as they did from the Jews,

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But since we were bereft of you, brethren, for a short time, in person not in heart, we endeavored the more eagerly and with great desire to see you face to face;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ because we wanted to come to you--I, Paul, again and again--but Satan hindered us.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is our hope or joy or crown of boasting before our Lord Jesus at his coming? Is it not you?

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:20 @ For you are our glory and joy.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ and we sent Timothy, our brother and God's servant in the gospel of Christ, to establish you in your faith and to exhort you,

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:3 @ that no one be moved by these afflictions. You yourselves know that this is to be our lot.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we were to suffer affliction; just as it has come to pass, and as you know.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this reason, when I could bear it no longer, I sent that I might know your faith, for fear that somehow the tempter had tempted you and that our labor would be in vain.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and has brought us the good news of your faith and love and reported that you always remember us kindly and long to see us, as we long to see you--

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ for this reason, brethren, in all our distress and affliction we have been comforted about you through your faith;

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:8 @ for now we live, if you stand fast in the Lord.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:9 @ For what thanksgiving can we render to God for you, for all the joy which we feel for your sake before our God,

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ praying earnestly night and day that we may see you face to face and supply what is lacking in your faith?

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you;

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:12 @ and may the Lord make you increase and abound in love to one another and to all men, as we do to you,

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ so that he may establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:1 @ Finally, brethren, we beseech and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you learned from us how you ought to live and to please God, just as you are doing, you do so more and more.

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

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:3 @ For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from unchastity;

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:4 @ that each one of you know how to take a wife for himself in holiness and honor,

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ that no man transgress, and wrong his brother in this matter, because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as we solemnly forewarned you.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ But concerning love of the brethren you have no need to have any one write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another;

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:10 @ and indeed you do love all the brethren throughout Macedo'nia. But we exhort you, brethren, to do so more and more,

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ to aspire to live quietly, to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we charged you;

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:12 @ so that you may command the respect of outsiders, and be dependent on nobody.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ But we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:15 @ For this we declare to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, shall not precede those who have fallen asleep.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But as to the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need to have anything written to you.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:4 @ But you are not in darkness, brethren, for that day to surprise you like a thief.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:5 @ For you are all sons of light and sons of the day; we are not of the night or of darkness.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:11 @ Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:12 @ But we beseech you, brethren, to respect those who labor among you and are over you in the Lord and admonish you,

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:13 @ and to esteem them very highly in love because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ And we exhort you, brethren, admonish the idlers, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with them all.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:15 @ See that none of you repays evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to all.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:18 @ give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ May the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept sound and blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:24 @ He who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:27 @ I adjure you by the Lord that this letter be read to all the brethren.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:28 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

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

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ We are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, as is fitting, because your faith is growing abundantly, and the love of every one of you for one another is increasing.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ Therefore we ourselves boast of you in the churches of God for your steadfastness and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you are enduring.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:5 @ This is evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be made worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering--

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:6 @ since indeed God deems it just to repay with affliction those who afflict you,

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:7 @ and to grant rest with us to you who are afflicted, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire,

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when he comes on that day to be glorified in his saints, and to be marveled at in all who have believed, because our testimony to you was believed.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:11 @ To this end we always pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his call, and may fulfil every good resolve and work of faith by his power,

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

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

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:3 @ Let no one deceive you in any way; for that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of perdition,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:5 @ Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you this?

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:6 @ And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But we are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.

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

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:17 @ comfort your hearts and establish them in every good work and word.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may speed on and triumph, as it did among you,

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:3 @ But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from evil.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:4 @ And we have confidence in the Lord about you, that you are doing and will do the things which we command.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:5 @ May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the steadfastness of Christ.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For you yourselves know how you ought to imitate us; we were not idle when we were with you,

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ we did not eat any one's bread without paying, but with toil and labor we worked night and day, that we might not burden any of you.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ It was not because we have not that right, but to give you in our conduct an example to imitate.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:10 @ For even when we were with you, we gave you this command: If any one will not work, let him not eat.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear that some of you are living in idleness, mere busybodies, not doing any work.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you all.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

rsv@1Timothy:1:3 @ As I urged you when I was going to Macedonia, remain at Ephesus that you may charge certain persons not to teach any different doctrine,

rsv@1Timothy:1:18 @ This charge I commit to you, Timothy, my son, in accordance with the prophetic utterances which pointed to you, that inspired by them you may wage the good warfare,

rsv@1Timothy:3:14 @ I hope to come to you soon, but I am writing these instructions to you so that,

rsv@1Timothy:3:15 @ if I am delayed, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and bulwark of the truth.

rsv@1Timothy:4:6 @ If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed.

rsv@1Timothy:4:7 @ Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness;

rsv@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

rsv@1Timothy:4:14 @ Do not neglect the gift you have, which was given you by prophetic utterance when the council of elders laid their hands upon you.

rsv@1Timothy:4:15 @ Practice these duties, devote yourself to them, so that all may see your progress.

rsv@1Timothy:4:16 @ Take heed to yourself and to your teaching; hold to that, for by so doing you will save both yourself and your hearers.

rsv@1Timothy:5:1 @ Do not rebuke an older man but exhort him as you would a father; treat younger men like brothers,

rsv@1Timothy:5:2 @ older women like mothers, younger women like sisters, in all purity.

rsv@1Timothy:5:11 @ But refuse to enrol younger widows; for when they grow wanton against Christ they desire to marry,

rsv@1Timothy:5:14 @ So I would have younger widows marry, bear children, rule their households, and give the enemy no occasion to revile us.

rsv@1Timothy:5:18 @ for the scripture says, "You shall not muzzle an ox when it is treading out the grain," and, "The laborer deserves his wages."

rsv@1Timothy:5:21 @ In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of the elect angels I charge you to keep these rules without favor, doing nothing from partiality.

rsv@1Timothy:5:22 @ Do not be hasty in the laying on of hands, nor participate in another man's sins; keep yourself pure.

rsv@1Timothy:5:23 @ No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.

rsv@1Timothy:6:11 @ But as for you, man of God, shun all this; aim at righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness.

rsv@1Timothy:6:12 @ Fight the good fight of the faith; take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.

rsv@1Timothy:6:14 @ I charge you to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ;

rsv@1Timothy:6:20 @ O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you. Avoid the godless chatter and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge,

rsv@1Timothy:6:21 @ for by professing it some have missed the mark as regards the faith. Grace be with you.

rsv@2Timothy:1:3 @ I thank God whom I serve with a clear conscience, as did my fathers, when I remember you constantly in my prayers.

rsv@2Timothy:1:4 @ As I remember your tears, I long night and day to see you, that I may be filled with joy.

rsv@2Timothy:1:5 @ I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lo'is and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you.

rsv@2Timothy:1:6 @ Hence I remind you to rekindle the gift of God that is within you through the laying on of my hands;

rsv@2Timothy:1:13 @ Follow the pattern of the sound words which you have heard from me, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus;

rsv@2Timothy:1:14 @ guard the truth that has been entrusted to you by the Holy Spirit who dwells within us.

rsv@2Timothy:1:15 @ You are aware that all who are in Asia turned away from me, and among them Phy'gelus and Hermog'enes.

rsv@2Timothy:1:18 @ may the Lord grant him to find mercy from the Lord on that Day--and you well know all the service he rendered at Ephesus.

rsv@2Timothy:2:1 @ You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus,

rsv@2Timothy:2:2 @ and what you have heard from me before many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.

rsv@2Timothy:2:7 @ Think over what I say, for the Lord will grant you understanding in everything.

rsv@2Timothy:2:15 @ Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.

rsv@2Timothy:2:22 @ So shun youthful passions and aim at righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call upon the Lord from a pure heart.

rsv@2Timothy:2:23 @ Have nothing to do with stupid, senseless controversies; you know that they breed quarrels.

rsv@2Timothy:3:10 @ Now you have observed my teaching, my conduct, my aim in life, my faith, my patience, my love, my steadfastness,

rsv@2Timothy:3:14 @ But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it

rsv@2Timothy:3:15 @ and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings which are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

rsv@2Timothy:4:1 @ I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom:

rsv@2Timothy:4:5 @ As for you, always be steady, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil your ministry.

rsv@2Timothy:4:9 @ Do your best to come to me soon.

rsv@2Timothy:4:11 @ Luke alone is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you; for he is very useful in serving me.

rsv@2Timothy:4:13 @ When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Tro'as, also the books, and above all the parchments.

rsv@2Timothy:4:15 @ Beware of him yourself, for he strongly opposed our message.

rsv@2Timothy:4:21 @ Do your best to come before winter. Eubu'lus sends greetings to you, as do Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brethren.

rsv@2Timothy:4:22 @ The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you.

rsv@Titus:1:5 @ This is why I left you in Crete, that you might amend what was defective, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you,

rsv@Titus:2:1 @ But as for you, teach what befits sound doctrine.

rsv@Titus:2:4 @ and so train the young women to love their husbands and children,

rsv@Titus:2:6 @ Likewise urge the younger men to control themselves.

rsv@Titus:2:7 @ Show yourself in all respects a model of good deeds, and in your teaching show integrity, gravity,

rsv@Titus:2:15 @ Declare these things; exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one disregard you.

rsv@Titus:3:8 @ The saying is sure. I desire you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to apply themselves to good deeds; these are excellent and profitable to men.

rsv@Titus:3:12 @ When I send Artemas or Tych'icus to you, do your best to come to me at Nicop'olis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.

rsv@Titus:3:13 @ Do your best to speed Zenas the lawyer and Apol'los on their way; see that they lack nothing.

rsv@Titus:3:15 @ All who are with me send greetings to you. Greet those who love us in the faith. Grace be with you all.

rsv@Philemon:1:2 @ and Ap'phia our sister and Archip'pus our fellow soldier, and the church in your house:

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

rsv@Philemon:1:4 @ I thank my God always when I remember you in my prayers,

rsv@Philemon:1:5 @ because I hear of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and all the saints,

rsv@Philemon:1:6 @ and I pray that the sharing of your faith may promote the knowledge of all the good that is ours in Christ.

rsv@Philemon:1:7 @ For I have derived much joy and comfort from your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you.

rsv@Philemon:1:8 @ Accordingly, though I am bold enough in Christ to command you to do what is required,

rsv@Philemon:1:9 @ yet for love's sake I prefer to appeal to you--I, Paul, an ambassador and now a prisoner also for Christ Jesus--

rsv@Philemon:1:10 @ I appeal to you for my child, Ones'imus, whose father I have become in my imprisonment.

rsv@Philemon:1:11 @ (Formerly he was useless to you, but now he is indeed useful to you and to me.)

rsv@Philemon:1:12 @ I am sending him back to you, sending my very heart.

rsv@Philemon:1:13 @ I would have been glad to keep him with me, in order that he might serve me on your behalf during my imprisonment for the gospel;

rsv@Philemon:1:14 @ but I preferred to do nothing without your consent in order that your goodness might not be by compulsion but of your own free will.

rsv@Philemon:1:15 @ Perhaps this is why he was parted from you for a while, that you might have him back for ever,

rsv@Philemon:1:16 @ no longer as a slave but more than a slave, as a beloved brother, especially to me but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.

rsv@Philemon:1:17 @ So if you consider me your partner, receive him as you would receive me.

rsv@Philemon:1:18 @ If he has wronged you at all, or owes you anything, charge that to my account.

rsv@Philemon:1:19 @ I, Paul, write this with my own hand, I will repay it--to say nothing of your owing me even your own self.

rsv@Philemon:1:20 @ Yes, brother, I want some benefit from you in the Lord. Refresh my heart in Christ.

rsv@Philemon:1:21 @ Confident of your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even more than I say.

rsv@Philemon:1:22 @ At the same time, prepare a guest room for me, for I am hoping through your prayers to be granted to you.

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

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

rsv@Hebrews:3:7 @ Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, "Today, when you hear his voice,

rsv@Hebrews:3:8 @ do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness,

rsv@Hebrews:3:9 @ where your fathers put me to the test and saw my works for forty years.

rsv@Hebrews:3:12 @ Take care, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God.

rsv@Hebrews:3:13 @ But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called "today," that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

rsv@Hebrews:3:15 @ while it is said, "Today, when you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion."

rsv@Hebrews:4:1 @ Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest remains, let us fear lest any of you be judged to have failed to reach it.

rsv@Hebrews:4:7 @ again he sets a certain day, "Today," saying through David so long afterward, in the words already quoted, "Today, when you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts."

rsv@Hebrews:5:11 @ About this we have much to say which is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing.

rsv@Hebrews:5:12 @ For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need some one to teach you again the first principles of God's word. You need milk, not solid food;

rsv@Hebrews:6:9 @ Though we speak thus, yet in your case, beloved, we feel sure of better things that belong to salvation.

rsv@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not so unjust as to overlook your work and the love which you showed for his sake in serving the saints, as you still do.

rsv@Hebrews:6:11 @ And we desire each one of you to show the same earnestness in realizing the full assurance of hope until the end,

rsv@Hebrews:6:12 @ so that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

rsv@Hebrews:6:14 @ saying, "Surely I will bless you and multiply you."

rsv@Hebrews:8:5 @ They serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary; for when Moses was about to erect the tent, he was instructed by God, saying, "See that you make everything according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain."

rsv@Hebrews:9:14 @ how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify your conscience from dead works to serve the living God.

rsv@Hebrews:9:20 @ saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God commanded you."

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:10:29 @ How much worse punishment do you think will be deserved by the man who has spurned the Son of God, and profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and outraged the Spirit of grace?

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

rsv@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you had compassion on the prisoners, and you joyfully accepted the plundering of your property, since you knew that you yourselves had a better possession and an abiding one.

rsv@Hebrews:10:35 @ Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.

rsv@Hebrews:10:36 @ For you have need of endurance, so that you may do the will of God and receive what is promised.

rsv@Hebrews:11:18 @ of whom it was said, "Through Isaac shall your descendants be named."

rsv@Hebrews:12:3 @ Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.

rsv@Hebrews:12:4 @ In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.

rsv@Hebrews:12:5 @ And have you forgotten the exhortation which addresses you as sons?-- "My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, nor lose courage when you are punished by him.

rsv@Hebrews:12:7 @ It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

rsv@Hebrews:12:8 @ If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.

rsv@Hebrews:12:12 @ Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees,

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

rsv@Hebrews:12:18 @ For you have not come to what may be touched, a blazing fire, and darkness, and gloom, and a tempest,

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

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

rsv@Hebrews:13:3 @ Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them; and those who are ill-treated, since you also are in the body.

rsv@Hebrews:13:5 @ Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have; for he has said, "I will never fail you nor forsake you."

rsv@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God; consider the outcome of their life, and imitate their faith.

rsv@Hebrews:13:16 @ Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.

rsv@Hebrews:13:17 @ Obey your leaders and submit to them; for they are keeping watch over your souls, as men who will have to give account. Let them do this joyfully, and not sadly, for that would be of no advantage to you.

rsv@Hebrews:13:19 @ I urge you the more earnestly to do this in order that I may be restored to you the sooner.

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

rsv@Hebrews:13:22 @ I appeal to you, brethren, bear with my word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly.

rsv@Hebrews:13:23 @ You should understand that our brother Timothy has been released, with whom I shall see you if he comes soon.

rsv@Hebrews:13:24 @ Greet all your leaders and all the saints. Those who come from Italy send you greetings.

rsv@Hebrews:13:25 @ Grace be with all of you. Amen.

rsv@James:1:2 @ Count it all joy, my brethren, when you meet various trials,

rsv@James:1:3 @ for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

rsv@James:1:4 @ And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

rsv@James:1:5 @ If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives to all men generously and without reproaching, and it will be given him.

rsv@James:1:21 @ Therefore put away all filthiness and rank growth of wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

rsv@James:1:22 @ But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

rsv@James:2:1 @ My brethren, show no partiality as you hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory.

rsv@James:2:2 @ For if a man with gold rings and in fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in,

rsv@James:2:3 @ and you pay attention to the one who wears the fine clothing and say, "Have a seat here, please," while you say to the poor man, "Stand there," or, "Sit at my feet,"

rsv@James:2:4 @ have you not made distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

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

rsv@James:2:7 @ Is it not they who blaspheme that honorable name which was invoked over you?

rsv@James:2:8 @ If you really fulfil the royal law, according to the scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself," you do well.

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

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:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled," without giving them the things needed for the body, what does it profit?

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

rsv@James:2:19 @ You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe--and shudder.

rsv@James:2:20 @ Do you want to be shown, you shallow man, that faith apart from works is barren?

rsv@James:2:22 @ You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by works,

rsv@James:2:24 @ You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.

rsv@James:3:1 @ Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, for you know that we who teach shall be judged with greater strictness.

rsv@James:3:13 @ Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good life let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom.

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:4:1 @ What causes wars, and what causes fightings among you? Is it not your passions that are at war in your members?

rsv@James:4:2 @ You desire and do not have; so you kill. And you covet and cannot obtain; so you fight and wage war. You do not have, because you do not ask.

rsv@James:4:3 @ You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions.

rsv@James:4:4 @ Unfaithful creatures! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

rsv@James:4:5 @ Or do you suppose it is in vain that the scripture says, "He yearns jealously over the spirit which he has made to dwell in us"?

rsv@James:4:7 @ Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

rsv@James:4:8 @ Draw near to God and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you men of double mind.

rsv@James:4:9 @ Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to dejection.

rsv@James:4:10 @ Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you.

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:4:13 @ Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and get gain";

rsv@James:4:14 @ whereas you do not know about tomorrow. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.

rsv@James:4:15 @ Instead you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we shall live and we shall do this or that."

rsv@James:4:16 @ As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.

rsv@James:5:1 @ Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you.

rsv@James:5:2 @ Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten.

rsv@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver have rusted, and their rust will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure for the last days.

rsv@James:5:4 @ Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts.

rsv@James:5:5 @ You have lived on the earth in luxury and in pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.

rsv@James:5:6 @ You have condemned, you have killed the righteous man; he does not resist you.

rsv@James:5:8 @ You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

rsv@James:5:9 @ Do not grumble, brethren, against one another, that you may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing at the doors.

rsv@James:5:11 @ Behold, we call those happy who were steadfast. You have heard of the steadfastness of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful.

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

rsv@James:5:13 @ Is any one among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praise.

rsv@James:5:14 @ Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;

rsv@James:5:16 @ Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects.

rsv@James:5:19 @ My brethren, if any one among you wanders from the truth and some one brings him back,

rsv@1Peter:1:2 @ chosen and destined by God the Father and sanctified by the Spirit for obedience to Jesus Christ and for sprinkling with his blood: May grace and peace be multiplied to you.

rsv@1Peter:1:4 @ and to an inheritance which is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you,

rsv@1Peter:1:6 @ In this you rejoice, though now for a little while you may have to suffer various trials,

rsv@1Peter:1:7 @ so that the genuineness of your faith, more precious than gold which though perishable is tested by fire, may redound to praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Peter:1:8 @ Without having seen him you love him; though you do not now see him you believe in him and rejoice with unutterable and exalted joy.

rsv@1Peter:1:9 @ As the outcome of your faith you obtain the salvation of your souls.

rsv@1Peter:1:10 @ The prophets who prophesied of the grace that was to be yours searched and inquired about this salvation;

rsv@1Peter:1:12 @ It was revealed to them that they were serving not themselves but you, in the things which have now been announced to you by those who preached the good news to you through the Holy Spirit sent from heaven, things into which angels long to look.

rsv@1Peter:1:13 @ Therefore gird up your minds, be sober, set your hope fully upon the grace that is coming to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Peter:1:14 @ As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance,

rsv@1Peter:1:15 @ but as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in all your conduct;

rsv@1Peter:1:16 @ since it is written, "You shall be holy, for I am holy."

rsv@1Peter:1:17 @ And if you invoke as Father him who judges each one impartially according to his deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your exile.

rsv@1Peter:1:18 @ You know that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your fathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold,

rsv@1Peter:1:20 @ He was destined before the foundation of the world but was made manifest at the end of the times for your sake.

rsv@1Peter:1:21 @ Through him you have confidence in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

rsv@1Peter:1:22 @ Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth for a sincere love of the brethren, love one another earnestly from the heart.

rsv@1Peter:1:23 @ You have been born anew, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God;

rsv@1Peter:1:25 @ but the word of the Lord abides for ever." That word is the good news which was preached to you.

rsv@1Peter:2:2 @ Like newborn babes, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up to salvation;

rsv@1Peter:2:3 @ for you have tasted the kindness of the Lord.

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

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

rsv@1Peter:2:9 @ But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's own people, that you may declare the wonderful deeds of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

rsv@1Peter:2:10 @ Once you were no people but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy but now you have received mercy.

rsv@1Peter:2:11 @ Beloved, I beseech you as aliens and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh that wage war against your soul.

rsv@1Peter:2:12 @ Maintain good conduct among the Gentiles, so that in case they speak against you as wrongdoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.

rsv@1Peter:2:15 @ For it is God's will that by doing right you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men.

rsv@1Peter:2:16 @ Live as free men, yet without using your freedom as a pretext for evil; but live as servants of God.

rsv@1Peter:2:18 @ Servants, be submissive to your masters with all respect, not only to the kind and gentle but also to the overbearing.

rsv@1Peter:2:20 @ For what credit is it, if when you do wrong and are beaten for it you take it patiently? But if when you do right and suffer for it you take it patiently, you have God's approval.

rsv@1Peter:2:21 @ For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.

rsv@1Peter:2:24 @ He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.

rsv@1Peter:2:25 @ For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Guardian of your souls.

rsv@1Peter:3:1 @ Likewise you wives, be submissive to your husbands, so that some, though they do not obey the word, may be won without a word by the behavior of their wives,

rsv@1Peter:3:2 @ when they see your reverent and chaste behavior.

rsv@1Peter:3:3 @ Let not yours be the outward adorning with braiding of hair, decoration of gold, and wearing of fine clothing,

rsv@1Peter:3:6 @ as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. And you are now her children if you do right and let nothing terrify you.

rsv@1Peter:3:7 @ Likewise you husbands, live considerately with your wives, bestowing honor on the woman as the weaker sex, since you are joint heirs of the grace of life, in order that your prayers may not be hindered.

rsv@1Peter:3:8 @ Finally, all of you, have unity of spirit, sympathy, love of the brethren, a tender heart and a humble mind.

rsv@1Peter:3:9 @ Do not return evil for evil or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing.

rsv@1Peter:3:13 @ Now who is there to harm you if you are zealous for what is right?

rsv@1Peter:3:14 @ But even if you do suffer for righteousness' sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled,

rsv@1Peter:3:15 @ but in your hearts reverence Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to make a defense to any one who calls you to account for the hope that is in you, yet do it with gentleness and reverence;

rsv@1Peter:3:16 @ and keep your conscience clear, so that, when you are abused, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame.

rsv@1Peter:3:21 @ Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you, not as a removal of dirt from the body but as an appeal to God for a clear conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

rsv@1Peter:4:1 @ Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same thought, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

rsv@1Peter:4:4 @ They are surprised that you do not now join them in the same wild profligacy, and they abuse you;

rsv@1Peter:4:7 @ The end of all things is at hand; therefore keep sane and sober for your prayers.

rsv@1Peter:4:8 @ Above all hold unfailing your love for one another, since love covers a multitude of sins.

rsv@1Peter:4:12 @ Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal which comes upon you to prove you, as though something strange were happening to you.

rsv@1Peter:4:13 @ But rejoice in so far as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed.

rsv@1Peter:4:14 @ If you are reproached for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the spirit of glory and of God rests upon you.

rsv@1Peter:4:15 @ But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or a wrongdoer, or a mischief-maker;

rsv@1Peter:5:1 @ So I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ as well as a partaker in the glory that is to be revealed.

rsv@1Peter:5:2 @ Tend the flock of God that is your charge, not by constraint but willingly, not for shameful gain but eagerly,

rsv@1Peter:5:3 @ not as domineering over those in your charge but being examples to the flock.

rsv@1Peter:5:4 @ And when the chief Shepherd is manifested you will obtain the unfading crown of glory.

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

rsv@1Peter:5:6 @ Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that in due time he may exalt you.

rsv@1Peter:5:7 @ Cast all your anxieties on him, for he cares about you.

rsv@1Peter:5:8 @ Be sober, be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking some one to devour.

rsv@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experience of suffering is required of your brotherhood throughout the world.

rsv@1Peter:5:10 @ And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, establish, and strengthen you.

rsv@1Peter:5:12 @ By Silva'nus, a faithful brother as I regard him, I have written briefly to you, exhorting and declaring that this is the true grace of God; stand fast in it.

rsv@1Peter:5:13 @ She who is at Babylon, who is likewise chosen, sends you greetings; and so does my son Mark.

rsv@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with the kiss of love. Peace to all of you that are in Christ.

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

rsv@2Peter:1:4 @ by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, that through these you may escape from the corruption that is in the world because of passion, and become partakers of the divine nature.

rsv@2Peter:1:5 @ For this very reason make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge,

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

rsv@2Peter:1:10 @ Therefore, brethren, be the more zealous to confirm your call and election, for if you do this you will never fall;

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

rsv@2Peter:1:12 @ Therefore I intend always to remind you of these things, though you know them and are established in the truth that you have.

rsv@2Peter:1:13 @ I think it right, as long as I am in this body, to arouse you by way of reminder,

rsv@2Peter:1:15 @ And I will see to it that after my departure you may be able at any time to recall these things.

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

rsv@2Peter:1:19 @ And we have the prophetic word made more sure. You will do well to pay attention to this as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

rsv@2Peter:1:20 @ First of all you must understand this, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation,

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:2:3 @ And in their greed they will exploit you with false words; from of old their condemnation has not been idle, and their destruction has not been asleep.

rsv@2Peter:2:13 @ suffering wrong for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their dissipation, carousing with you.

rsv@2Peter:3:1 @ This is now the second letter that I have written to you, beloved, and in both of them I have aroused your sincere mind by way of reminder;

rsv@2Peter:3:2 @ that you should remember the predictions of the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles.

rsv@2Peter:3:3 @ First of all you must understand this, that scoffers will come in the last days with scoffing, following their own passions

rsv@2Peter:3:9 @ 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:3:11 @ Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of persons ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness,

rsv@2Peter:3:14 @ Therefore, beloved, since you wait for these, be zealous to be found by him without spot or blemish, and at peace.

rsv@2Peter:3:15 @ And count the forbearance of our Lord as salvation. So also our beloved brother Paul wrote to you according to the wisdom given him,

rsv@2Peter:3:17 @ You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, beware lest you be carried away with the error of lawless men and lose your own stability.

rsv@1John:1:2 @ the life was made manifest, and we saw it, and testify to it, and proclaim to you the eternal life which was with the Father and was made manifest to us--

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

rsv@1John:1:5 @ This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him is no darkness at all.

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

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

rsv@1John:2:8 @ Yet I am writing you a new commandment, which is true in him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining.

rsv@1John:2:12 @ I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for his sake.

rsv@1John:2:13 @ I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, children, because you know the Father.

rsv@1John:2:14 @ I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one.

rsv@1John:2:18 @ Children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come; therefore we know that it is the last hour.

rsv@1John:2:20 @ 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:2:24 @ Let what you heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then you will abide in the Son and in the Father.

rsv@1John:2:26 @ I write this to you about those who would deceive you;

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

rsv@1John:2:29 @ If you know that he is righteous, you may be sure that every one who does right is born of him.

rsv@1John:3:5 @ You know that he appeared to take away sins, and in him there is no sin.

rsv@1John:3:7 @ Little children, let no one deceive you. He who does right is righteous, as he is righteous.

rsv@1John:3:11 @ For this is the message which you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another,

rsv@1John:3:13 @ Do not wonder, brethren, that the world hates you.

rsv@1John:3:15 @ Any one who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

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

rsv@1John:4:3 @ and every spirit which does not confess Jesus is not of God. This is the spirit of antichrist, of which you heard that it was coming, and now it is in the world already.

rsv@1John:4:4 @ Little children, you are of God, and have overcome them; for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

rsv@1John:5:13 @ I write this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life.

rsv@1John:5:21 @ Little children, keep yourselves from idols.

rsv@2John:1:4 @ I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children following the truth, just as we have been commanded by the Father.

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:1:6 @ And this is love, that we follow his commandments; this is the commandment, as you have heard from the beginning, that you follow love.

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:1:10 @ If any one comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into the house or give him any greeting;

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@2John:1:13 @ The children of your elect sister greet you.

rsv@3John:1:2 @ Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in health; I know that it is well with your soul.

rsv@3John:1:3 @ For I greatly rejoiced when some of the brethren arrived and testified to the truth of your life, as indeed you do follow the truth.

rsv@3John:1:5 @ Beloved, it is a loyal thing you do when you render any service to the brethren, especially to strangers,

rsv@3John:1:6 @ who have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their journey as befits God's service.

rsv@3John:1:12 @ Deme'trius has testimony from every one, and from the truth itself; I testify to him too, and you know my testimony is true.

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